AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER AND REORGANIZATION
     This AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER AND REORGANIZATION (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of June 18, 2010, by and among TrustWave Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Purchaser”), TrustWave Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Purchaser (“Merger Sub”), Breach Security, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Target”), SRBA #5, L.P.

RECITALS
     A. Target owns all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Breach Security LTD, an Israel corporation (“BSI”), and Breach Security (UK) LTD, a United Kingdom corporation (“BSUK” and, together with Target and BSI, individually a “Company” and, collectively, the “Companies”).
     B. The Companies are engaged in the business of providing its customers web application integrity, security and Payment Card Industry (PCI) compliance products and services (as conducted during the six months ending on the date hereof, the “Business”).
     C. The stockholders of Target listed on the attached Schedule A (individually a “Stockholder” and collectively, the “Stockholders”), in the aggregate, own all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Target.
     D. The Sellers own, in the aggregate, over ninety-four percent (94%) of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Target, on a fully-diluted basis, and one hundred percent (100%) of the Target Preferred Stock, in each case as of the date hereof.
     E. The Boards of Directors of Target and Purchaser believe it is in the best interests of their respective companies and the stockholders of their respective companies that Purchaser acquire Target by the merger of Merger Sub with and into Target (the “Merger”), with Target being the surviving corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Purchaser in accordance with the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “Delaware Law”), and that Target, Merger Sub, Purchaser and Sellers enter into this Agreement and consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby on the terms and subject to the conditions provided for in this Agreement.
     F. Pursuant to the Merger, among other things, all of the issued and outstanding shares of Target Preferred Stock shall be converted into shares of the Class A Voting Common Stock, $0.0001 par value, of Purchaser (the “Purchaser Common Stock”), as set forth herein.
     G. Target, Merger Sub, Purchaser and Sellers desire to make certain representations and warranties and other agreements in connection with the Merger.

 


 

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants and representations set forth herein, and for other good and valuable consideration the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
ARTICLE I.
THE MERGER
     1.1. The Merger. At the Effective Time and subject to and upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Certificate of Merger attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Certificate of Merger”), and in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Delaware Law, Merger Sub shall be merged with and into Target, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub shall cease and Target shall continue as the surviving corporation and as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Purchaser. Target as the surviving corporation after the Merger is hereinafter sometimes referred to as the “Surviving Corporation.”
     1.2. Effect of the Merger. At the Effective Time, the effect of the Merger shall be as provided in this Agreement, the Certificate of Merger and the applicable provisions of the Delaware Law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, at the Effective Time, all the property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of Target shall vest in the Surviving Corporation, and all debts, liabilities and duties of Target shall become the debts, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Corporation.
     1.3. Certificate of Incorporation; Bylaws.
     (a) At the Effective Time, Target shall amend its Certificate of Incorporation so as to be in the form attached to the Certificate of Merger and, as so amended, such certificate of incorporation shall be the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter amended as provided by Delaware Law and such certificate of incorporation.
     (b) At 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 until thereafter amended.
     1.4. Directors and Officers. The directors of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the initial directors of the Surviving Corporation, in each case until their successors are elected or appointed and qualified or until their earlier resignation or removal. The officers of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the initial officers of the Surviving Corporation, each to hold office in accordance with the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation.
     1.5. Effect on Capital Stock. By virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Purchaser, Merger Sub, Target, Sellers or the holders of any of the following securities:
     (a) Conversion of Target Preferred Stock. At the Effective Time, all of the shares of Target Preferred Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be canceled and extinguished and be converted automatically into the right to receive, in the aggregate, the Base Number of shares of Purchaser Common Stock

- 2 -


 

(the “Merger Payment”). The Merger Payment shall be allocated among Sellers such that each Seller receives his, her or its Pro-Rata Percentage of the Merger Payment.
     (i) The “Base Number” shall be 247,288.
     (ii) The “Pro-Rata Percentage” for each Seller shall be the percentage set forth to the right of such Seller’s name under the column labeled Pro-Rata Percentage on the attached Schedule 1.5(a).
     (b) Cancellation of Target Common Stock. At the Effective Time, all shares of Target Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, including those owned by Target as treasury stock, shall be canceled and extinguished without any conversion thereof and without payment of any consideration therefor. Promptly following the Effective Time, Purchaser or the Surviving Corporation shall request that each Stockholder deliver to Purchaser the certificate or certificates which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented all of the outstanding shares of Target Common Stock owned by such Stockholder, together in each case with a duly completed and validly executed stock power, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (each, a “Stock Power”).
     (c) Target Stock Option Plan. Immediately after the Effective Time, all options to purchase Target Capital Stock then outstanding under the Target Stock Option Plan shall be cancelled in accordance with Section 1.11.
     (d) Target Warrants. At the Effective Time, all warrants to purchase Target Capital Stock then outstanding shall be cancelled in accordance with Section 1.12.
     (e) Conversion of Merger Sub Common Stock. Each issued and outstanding share of common stock, $0.0001 par value, of Merger Sub outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and become one share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation with the same rights, powers and privileges as the shares so converted and shall constitute the only outstanding shares of capital stock of the Surviving Corporation.
     (f) No Fractional Shares. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, no fraction of a share of Purchaser Common Stock will be issued and all issuances of Purchaser Common Stock will be rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of Purchaser Common Stock.
     1.6. Exchange Procedures.
     (a) Surrender of Target Preferred Stock. No later than the Effective Time, each Seller shall deliver to Purchaser a duly completed and validly executed letter of transmittal, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D (each, a “Letter of Transmittal”), together with the certificate or certificates (the “Preferred Certificates”) which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented all of the outstanding shares of Target Preferred Stock owned by such Seller (subject to Section 1.8) and a duly completed and validly executed Stock

- 3 -


 

Power with respect to such shares. Until so surrendered, each outstanding Preferred Certificate will be deemed from and after the Effective Time, for all corporate purposes, to evidence the ownership of the number of full shares of Purchaser Common Stock into which the shares of Target Preferred Stock evidenced thereby shall have been so converted in accordance with Section 1.5.
     (b) Delivery of Merger Consideration. No later than ten (10) Business Days after the receipt by Purchaser of the last item delivered pursuant to Item 1 on Schedule 3.2, Purchaser shall deliver to each Seller, in exchange for the Target Preferred Stock surrendered by such Seller, a certificate representing the number of whole shares of Purchaser Common Stock equal to the Base Number multiplied by the Pro-Rata Percentage for each such Seller.
     (c) Distributions With Respect to Unexchanged Target Preferred Stock. No dividends or other distributions with respect to Purchaser Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time will be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Target Preferred Stock with respect to the shares of Purchaser Common Stock represented thereby until the holder of record of such Target Preferred Stock shall surrender such Target Preferred Stock. Subject to applicable Rules, following surrender of any such Target Preferred Stock, there shall be paid to the record holder of the certificates representing whole shares of Purchaser Common Stock issued in exchange therefor, without interest, at the time of such surrender, the amount of any such dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore payable (but for the provisions of this Section 1.6(c)) with respect to such shares of Purchaser Common Stock.
     (d) Transfers of Ownership. If any certificate for shares of Purchaser Common Stock is to be issued in a name other than that in which the Preferred Certificate(s) surrendered in exchange therefor is registered, it will be a condition of the issuance thereof that the Preferred Certificate(s) so surrendered will be properly endorsed and otherwise in proper form for transfer and that the person requesting such exchange will have paid to Purchaser or any agent designated by it any transfer or other Taxes required by reason of the issuance of a certificate for shares of Purchaser Common Stock in any name other than that of the registered holder of the Preferred Certificate(s) surrendered, or established to the reasonable satisfaction of Purchaser or any agent designated by it that such Tax has been paid or is not payable.
     (e) No Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 1.6, none of the Surviving Corporation, Purchaser or any party hereto shall be liable to any person for any amount properly paid to a Governmental Authority pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Rule.
     1.7. No Further Ownership Rights in Target Preferred Stock. All shares of Purchaser Common Stock issued upon the surrender for exchange of Target Preferred Stock in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such Target Preferred Stock, and there shall be no further registration of transfers

- 4 -


 

on the records of the Surviving Corporation of Target Preferred Stock which were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, shares of Target Preferred Stock are presented to the Surviving Corporation for any reason, they shall be canceled and exchanged as provided in this Article I.
     1.8. Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Preferred Certificates. In the event any Preferred Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, Purchaser shall issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Preferred Certificate, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the holder thereof, such shares of Purchaser Common Stock as may be required pursuant to Section 1.5; provided, however, that Purchaser may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed Preferred Certificate to deliver to Purchaser a lost certificate affidavit, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser, which includes an indemnity against any Claim that may be made against Purchaser or the Surviving Corporation with respect to the Preferred Certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.
     1.9. Tax Consequences. It is intended by the parties hereto that the Merger shall constitute a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368 of the Code. The parties hereto hereby adopt this Agreement as a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Section 1.368-2(g) and 1.368-3(a) of the Treasury Regulations.
     1.10. Withholding Rights. Purchaser shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the number of shares of Purchaser Common Stock otherwise deliverable under this Agreement, such amounts as Purchaser is required to deduct and withhold with respect to such delivery and payment under the Code or any provision of state, local, provincial or foreign Tax Rule. To the extent that amounts are so withheld, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been delivered and paid to each Seller in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by Purchaser. To the extent Purchaser determines that withholding would otherwise be required with respect to certain amounts of the number of shares of Purchaser Common Stock, Purchaser shall provide reasonable advance notification to Sellers of such potential withholding and Sellers shall use reasonable efforts to provide Purchaser with withholding certificates or other required certifications that would permit such withholding to be reduced or eliminated.
     1.11. Target Stock Options. Immediately after the Effective Time, each outstanding option to purchase shares of Target Common Stock under the Target Stock Option Plan, whether vested or unvested, will be cancelled. At or prior to the Closing, Target shall take all actions required to cancel each outstanding option to purchase shares of Target Capital Stock under the Target Stock Option Plan effective immediately after the Effective Time. Within the later of (a) 60 calendar days after the Effective Time, and (b) 10 calendar days after Purchaser’s Board of Directors adopts an independent, third party valuation of Purchaser Common Stock as of the Closing Date, but in any event as soon as reasonably practicable, Purchaser will issue options to purchase Purchaser Common Stock under the Purchaser Stock Option Plan to those of the Covered Employees and the Israeli Employees, on such terms, as is set forth on the attached Schedule 1.11. At or prior to the Effective Time, Purchaser shall take all corporate action necessary to reserve for future issuance, and shall maintain such reservation for so long as
any of

- 5 -


 

the issued options remain outstanding, a sufficient number of shares of Purchaser Common Stock for delivery upon the exercise of such options.
     1.12. Target Warrants. At the Effective Time, each outstanding warrant to purchase shares of Target Capital Stock, whether vested or unvested, will be cancelled. At or prior to the Closing, Target shall take all actions required to cancel each outstanding warrant to purchase shares of Target Capital Stock effective prior to the closing of the Merger or the transactions contemplated hereby.
     1.13. Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, shares of Target Capital Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by a Stockholder who is entitled to and has properly exercised and perfected appraisal rights pursuant to Section 262 of the Delaware Law (collectively, the “Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted as of the Effective Time into the right to receive any of the Merger Consideration, if applicable, but instead shall have such rights as may be available under the Delaware Law. At the Effective Time, all Dissenting Shares shall no longer be outstanding and shall be cancelled and each holder of Dissenting Shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the fair value of such Dissenting Shares in accordance with Section 262 of the Delaware Law; provided, however, that if any such Stockholder shall have failed to perfect or shall effectively withdraw or lose its right to appraisal and payment under the Delaware Law, or a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that such holder is not entitled to the relief provided by Section 262, such Stockholder’s shares of Target Capital Stock shall thereupon be deemed to have been converted as of the Effective Time into the right to receive the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 1.5, if any, and such shares of Target Capital Stock shall no longer be Dissenting Shares. Target shall give Purchaser prompt notice identifying those Stockholders who did not vote in favor of the Merger or consent thereto in writing. Promptly following Stockholder approval of the Merger, Purchaser shall prepare and deliver to the Stockholders all written notices required to be delivered in accordance with Sections 228, 251 and 262 of the Delaware Law, in forms reasonably acceptable to the Agent. Prior to the Effective Time, (i) Target shall have the right to control the negotiations, proceedings and any settlement of any such demands, (ii) Target shall give Purchaser prompt notice of any demands received by Target for appraisal of shares of Target Capital Stock and (iii) Purchaser shall have the right to participate in all negotiations, proceedings and settlements with respect to such demands. On and after the Effective Time, (a) Purchaser shall give the Agent prompt notice of any demands for appraisal received by the Surviving Corporation, (b) so long as (I) the Agent can demonstrate that it has sufficient amounts which may be used in connection with such demand for appraisal to (A) defend such demand for appraisal, and (B) defend all other demands for appraisal then pending which the Agent is defending pursuant to this Section 1.13 and defend all Third Party Claims then pending which the Agent is defending pursuant to Section 8.8, and (II) the Agent has acknowledged in writing to Purchaser the Sellers’ unconditional obligation to indemnify Purchaser for such demand for appraisal, subject to the limitations set forth in Article VIII, the Agent shall have the right to control the negotiations, proceedings and any settlement of any such demands for appraisal; provided that the Agent shall not settle or compromise any such demand for appraisal without the prior written consent of Purchaser if pursuant to or as a result of such settlement, such settlement would lead to Liability or create any financial or other obligation on the part of any Purchaser Protected Party for which such Purchaser Protected Party is not entitled to be indemnified pursuant to Section 8.3 and (c)

- 6 -


 

Purchaser shall have the right (for purposes of clarification, at Purchaser’s expense) to participate in all negotiations, proceedings and settlements with respect to such demands.
     1.14. Taking of Necessary Action; Further Action. If, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and to vest the Surviving Corporation with full right, title and possession to all assets, property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of Target, the officers and directors of Target and Purchaser are fully authorized in the name of their respective corporations or otherwise to take, and will take, all such lawful and necessary action (at the sole cost and expense of Purchaser except to the extent that such action is required as a result of a breach of a representation and warranty or covenant of a Seller or, prior to the Closing, any Company, which for purposes of clarity shall be handled pursuant to the provisions of Article VIII hereof), so long as such action is not inconsistent with this Agreement.
     1.15. The Agent.
     (a) For purposes of this Agreement and all actions and decisions to be made by the Agent pursuant to this Agreement, SRBA (the “Agent”), shall be the representative and agent of Sellers to act on their behalf, and Purchaser and its Affiliates shall be entitled to rely exclusively on the acts and omissions of the Agent with respect to actions to be taken by, or inferences from omissions of, any Seller. Sellers may (or if SRBA should at any time choose not to serve, or be unable to serve, as the Agent, shall), at any time and from time to time, by written notice delivered to Purchaser executed by Sellers who held Target Series B Preferred Stock representing, in the aggregate, at least a majority of the Total Consideration Pro-Rata Percentages immediately prior to the Closing, appoint a replacement Agent; provided, however, that such new person shall not be deemed the Agent for purposes of this Agreement until Purchaser has received such written notice. The Agent shall act at the direction of Sellers who held Target Series B Preferred Stock representing, in the aggregate, at least a majority of the Total Consideration Pro-Rata Percentages held by all of the Sellers who held Target Series B Preferred Stock immediately prior to the Closing.
     (b) Sellers hereby irrevocably nominate, constitute and appoint SRBA as the agent and true and lawful attorney-in-fact of Sellers, with full power of substitution and authority to execute, deliver, acknowledge, certify, file and record on behalf of Sellers and Target (in the name of any or all of the Stockholders, Sellers or otherwise) any and all documents that the Agent may, in its sole discretion, determine to be appropriate, in such forms and containing such provisions as the Agent may, in its sole discretion, determine to be appropriate (including any amendment to or waiver of rights under this Agreement or any agreement or document contemplated herein or therein). Sellers recognize and intend that the power of attorney granted in Section 1.15(a): (i) is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable; (ii) may be delegated by the Agent; and (iii) shall survive any dissolution of any Seller.
     (c) The Agent shall not be responsible for, and the Sellers shall indemnify the Agent (in proportion to their respective Total Consideration Pro-Rata Percentages) against, any loss suffered by, or Liability of any kind to, Sellers arising out of any act

- 7 -


 

done or omitted by the Agent in connection with the acceptance or administration of the Agent’s duties hereunder, unless such act or omission involves gross negligence or willful misconduct. All reasonable expenses incurred by the Agent in connection with the performance of its duties as the Agent shall be borne and paid by Sellers (in proportion to their respective Total Consideration Pro-Rata Percentages) and the Agent shall be indemnified by the Sellers (in proportion to their respective Total Consideration Pro-Rata Percentages) against any such expenses.
     1.16. Transfer Restrictions. In addition to any restrictions contained in the Purchaser Stockholder Agreement, without the prior written consent of Purchaser:

     (b) during the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the consummation of a Purchaser Capital Transaction, no Seller may Transfer, by operation of law or otherwise, to any Person any of the shares of Purchaser Common Stock owned or held by such Seller if, as a result of such Transfer, the shares of Purchaser Common Stock which constitute the Merger Consideration are held of record by more than fifteen (15) Persons in the aggregate; provided, however that, as among the Sellers, the restriction contained in this Section 1.16(b) shall prohibit a Seller from making a Transfer of shares of Purchaser Common Stock to any Person if, as a result of such Transfer, the shares of Purchaser Common Stock which constitute the Merger Consideration are held of record by more than such Seller’s Total Consideration Pro-Rata Percentage of fifteen (15) Persons in the aggregate, as set forth on Schedule 1.16. Purchaser shall respond in a reasonably prompt manner to any request by any Seller to confirm the then number of record holders of the shares of Purchaser Common Stock which constitute the Merger Consideration.

     1.17. Put Right.
     (a) Purchaser hereby grants to each Seller the following option to sell all or any portion of such Seller’s Stockholder Securities, free and clear of all Liens, to

- 8 -


 

Purchaser (the “Put Option”), on the terms and conditions set forth herein. “Stockholder Securities” means, with respect to each Seller, the shares of Purchaser Common Stock acquired by such Seller as part of the Merger Consideration (including any other securities of Purchaser into which such Purchaser Common Stock is converted or for which it is otherwise exchanged). Such securities shall continue to be Stockholder Securities in the hands of any holder, and except as otherwise provided herein, each such other holder of Stockholder Securities shall succeed to all rights and obligations attributable to the transferring Seller as a holder of Stockholder Securities hereunder. The Put Option shall terminate upon the consummation of a Purchaser Capital Transaction.
     (b) The Put Option shall be exercised by the holder or holders of the Stockholder Securities by providing written notice to Purchaser (each such notice, an “Exercise Notice”), at any time during the ninety (90) day period commencing on the third anniversary of the Closing Date. Each Exercise Notice shall include the number of shares of Stockholder Securities as to which each such holder is exercising the Put Option.
     (c) The purchase price for each share of Stockholder Securities as to which the Put Option is exercised (the “Option Price”) shall be equal to $1.00 (as adjusted for any stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations or the like, with respect to such Purchaser Common Stock) plus interest on such amount at a rate equal to 8% per annum, compounded annually, from the Closing Date through the Option Closing.
     (d) The closing with respect to the exercise of the Put Option (the “Option Closing”) shall take place at the offices of Purchaser, on the 20th day following the delivery of the applicable Exercise Notice (unless otherwise mutually agreed upon by such holder or holders and Purchaser) in accordance with the terms hereof. At the Option Closing, the holder of each share of Stockholder Securities as to which the Put Option has been exercised shall deliver to Purchaser or its designees stock certificates representing the Stockholder Securities being purchased (or a lost certificate affidavit reasonably acceptable to Purchaser), free and clear of all Liens (other than Liens set forth in Purchaser’s certificate of incorporation, bylaws or the Purchaser Investor Rights Agreement or Purchaser Stockholder Agreement, each as then in effect) and duly endorsed in blank for transfer or accompanied by appropriate stock powers duly executed in blank, with all taxes, direct or indirect if any, attributable to the transfer of the Stockholder Securities paid or provided for by such holder.
     (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 1.17, all repurchases of Stockholder Securities by Purchaser pursuant to the Put Option shall be subject to applicable restrictions contained in the Delaware Law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 1.17, Sellers hereby further agree for the benefit of the holders of any Indebtedness for Borrowed Funds incurred by Purchaser (each such holder being hereinafter referred to as a “Lender”) that all repurchases of Stockholder Securities by Purchaser pursuant to the Put Option shall be subject to applicable restrictions contained in the Delaware Law and any debt financing agreements entered into between Purchaser and any Lender. If any such restrictions prohibit the

- 9 -


 

repurchase of Stockholder Securities pursuant to the Put Option which Purchaser is otherwise required to make, Purchaser shall make such repurchases or payments as soon as it is permitted to do so under such restrictions (such time from the date of the Exercise Notice to the date that Purchaser is so permitted to purchase the Stockholder Securities shall be deemed the “Default Period”); provided, however, if Purchaser is so prohibited by such restrictions from complying with its obligations under this Section 1.17 at the time of the exercise of the Put Option, then the Option Price for any Stockholder Securities which were not able to be purchased by Purchaser because of such restrictions shall be equal to $1.00 (as adjusted for any stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations or the like, with respect to such Purchaser Common Stock) plus interest on such amount at a rate equal to 8% per annum, compounded annually, from the Closing Date through the date of the Option Closing; provided, however, the interest payable during the Default Period shall be twelve percent (12%) per annum, compounded annually.
     1.18. Repayment of Debt. As additional consideration for the Merger, Purchaser shall, immediately prior to the Effective Time, issue to each of the Sellers the number of shares of Purchaser Common Stock set forth next to each such creditor’s name on Schedule 1.18 (collectively, the “Debt Repayment Shares” and, together with the Merger Payment, the “Merger Consideration”), in each case as payment in full in of the obligations of Target pursuant to the Convertible Promissory Notes.
ARTICLE II.
CLOSING NET ASSET POSITION.
     2.1. Closing Net Asset Position Reconciliation. No later than three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing, Target will deliver to Purchaser a preliminary balance sheet, reflecting Target’s good faith estimate of the Closing Net Asset Position of the Companies, on a consolidated basis, as of the Closing Date (“Preliminary Balance Sheet”). On the date (the “True-Up Date”) which is the fifteenth day following the date on which Purchaser and the Agent have either agreed to the Closing Net Asset Position or completed the dispute resolution procedure described in Section 2.2 below, (a) if the Closing Net Asset Position is less than $9,982,078, then each Seller shall be obligated to deliver to Purchaser an amount of cash equal to such Seller’s Total Consideration Pro-Rata Percentage of such deficit, and (b) if the Closing Net Asset Position is more than $9,982,078, then Purchaser shall deliver to each Seller an amount of cash equal to such Seller’s Total Consideration Pro-Rata Percentage of such excess.
     2.2. Closing Date Balance Sheet.
     (a) As soon as reasonably practical after the Closing (but in any event no later than 120 calendar days after the Closing), Purchaser, at its cost and expense, shall prepare and close the financial books and records of the Companies as of the close of business, Chicago time, on the Closing Date, and, based on such books and records, shall prepare and deliver, or cause to be prepared and delivered, to the Agent, a balance sheet, dated as of the effective date of the Closing (the “Closing Date Balance Sheet”). The Closing Date Balance Sheet shall be prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), consistently applied in accordance with past practices of the Companies (except for the absence of footnotes), and shall present fairly

- 10 -


 

the financial condition of the Companies, on a consolidated basis, as of the close of business, Chicago time, on the Closing Date, except that the Closing Date Balance Sheet shall be prepared in accordance with the principles set forth on the attached Schedule 2.2(a).
     (b) Purchaser shall deliver to the Agent the Closing Date Balance Sheet and include therein Purchaser’s calculation of the Closing Net Asset Position. If the Agent objects to the Closing Date Balance Sheet, including the Closing Net Asset Position calculation, provided to it by Purchaser, then within 30 calendar days of its receipt of the Closing Date Balance Sheet, the Agent shall give written notice in reasonable detail (the “Notice”) of its objections to Purchaser. During such 30-day period, Purchaser and Purchaser’s accountants shall give the Agent and its accountants access, upon reasonable notice and during normal business hours, to all books, records and work papers of the Companies, Purchaser and its accountants related to the preparation of the Closing Date Balance Sheet and calculation of the Closing Net Asset Position. If Purchaser has not received the Notice within such 30-day period, Sellers shall be deemed to have no objection to the Closing Date Balance Sheet and the Closing Date Balance Sheet shall become final and binding on the parties hereto for all purposes of this Agreement. The parties shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any disputes as promptly as practicable. If the parties are unable to resolve all disputes within twenty calendar days of receipt by Purchaser of the Notice, then only the unresolved disputes shall be submitted to the Chicago office of Grant Thornton, LLP or, if that firm declines such engagement or if Purchaser, Target, Sellers or the Agent has (or, within the past two years, had) any material engagement with Grant Thornton, LLP, another independent certified public accounting firm mutually agreed to by the parties, in each case utilizing partners that have not represented and have no relationship with either party (the “Independent Accountant”). The parties shall be entitled to provide the Independent Accountant with supporting documentation in connection with resolution of such disputes. The Independent Accountant shall, within 30 calendar days of its engagement, provide a final and conclusive resolution of all unresolved disputes and shall conform the Closing Date Balance Sheet, including the Closing Net Asset Position, accordingly. All references in this Agreement to the Closing Date Balance Sheet shall mean the Closing Date Balance Sheet as modified pursuant to this resolution procedure, and the resolution of the Independent Accountant shall be binding on the parties hereto, except that the foregoing shall not limit or prohibit a party from asserting a Claim and obtaining relief on account of any breach of a representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement. If the Closing Net Asset Position determined by the Independent Accountant exceeds the Closing Net Asset Position set forth on the Closing Date Balance Sheet delivered to Agent by Purchaser by more than fifteen percent (15%), then the fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant shall be borne by Purchaser, and if the Closing Net Asset Position determined by the Independent Accountant does not exceed the Closing Net Asset Position set forth on the Closing Date Balance Sheet delivered to Agent by Purchaser by more than fifteen percent (15%), then the fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant shall be borne by Sellers (based on each Seller’s Total Consideration Pro-Rata Percentage of such fees and expenses).

     (b) Purchaser agrees, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation to agree, that for a period of six (6) years following the Effective Time, all rights to exculpation and indemnification for acts or omissions occurring prior to the Effective Time now existing in favor of the current or former directors, officers, employees or agents of Target as provided in Target’s Organizational Documents and indemnification agreements shall become the obligations of the Surviving Corporation and shall survive the Merger and shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms; provided that Purchaser’s obligations under this Section 7.5(b) shall not exceed the amounts paid to the Surviving Corporation by the insurance policy or policies referred to in Section 7.5(a).
     (c) The provisions of this Section 7.5 are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each Target current and former director, officer, employee and agent and the heirs and Representatives of such person.

     7.6. Tax Covenants.
     (a) Post-Closing Tax Returns.
     (i) Purchaser shall prepare and timely file (or cause to be prepared and timely filed) with the appropriate Taxing Authorities all Tax Returns required to be filed by the Companies with respect to any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date that become due after the Closing Date (each a “Purchaser Prepared Return”). Each such Tax Return shall be prepared in a manner consistent with the prior practice of the Companies unless otherwise required by applicable Tax Rules or specified in Schedule 7.6(a).
     (ii) Purchaser shall provide the Agent with a copy of each Purchaser Prepared Return for review and comment at least fifty (50) days prior to the filing of such Tax Return (or, if required to be filed within fifty (50) days after the Closing or the end of the taxable period to which such Purchaser Prepared Return relates, as soon as reasonably possible following the Closing or the end of such taxable period, as the case may be), accompanied by a statement (an “Indemnified Tax Statement”) setting forth and calculating in reasonable detail the Taxes that are shown as due on such Tax Return and claimed to be indemnifiable pursuant to Section 8.3(b)(iii). The Agent shall have the right to review and approve (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) each Purchaser Prepared Return. For this purpose, the Agent’s withholding of approval of a Purchaser Prepared Return based upon Purchaser’s failure to adopt in such Tax Return an alternative reporting position suggested by the Agent shall be deemed reasonable if the reporting position proposed by the Agent on such Tax Return is more likely than not to be sustained if challenged by a relevant Taxing Authority.
     (iii) If the Agent disagrees with the manner of preparation of a Purchaser Prepared Return or the amount of indemnified Taxes calculated in any Indemnified Tax Statement, within twenty (20) days of the receipt of a Purchaser Prepared Return or any Indemnified Tax Statement, the Agent shall provide to Purchaser a notice of such dispute (a “Tax Statement Dispute”). If the Agent does not provide a notice of Tax Statement Dispute within such 20-day period, the Agent shall be deemed to have accepted the Tax Return and, for purposes of Article VIII, the Indemnified Tax Statement relating thereto. If the Agent provides Purchaser with a notice of a Tax Statement Dispute, the Agent shall also provide Purchaser with a written explanation of the reasons for its disagreement and its proposed changes. Purchaser and the Agent shall attempt to resolve their disagreement with respect to any Purchaser Prepared Return and any Indemnified Tax Statement. If the Agent and Purchaser cannot reach complete agreement within fifteen (15) days after receipt of a Tax Statement Dispute, the dispute shall be submitted to an arbitrator (the “Tax Arbitrator”) pursuant to the procedures described with respect to the Independent Accountant in Section 2.2(b) for resolution within fifteen (15) days after such submission. The decision of the Tax Arbitrator with respect to such dispute shall be binding upon the parties. Purchaser shall, subject to any indemnification pursuant to Section 8.3(b)(iii),

- 40 -


 

timely file any Purchaser Prepared Return as finally determined under this Section 7.6, and shall pay or cause to be paid the Tax shown as due on each such Tax Return.
     (iv) The amount of the Losses attributable to Taxes shown in any Indemnified Tax Statement as accepted or finally determined pursuant to the preceding paragraph, shall be treated as a Loss that is indemnifiable by the Sellers pursuant to Section 8.3(b)(iii).
     (b) Payment or Reimbursement for Indemnified Taxes. The Agent on behalf of the Sellers shall either remit the amount of any Taxes shown in any Indemnified Tax Statement as accepted or finally determined in accordance with Section 7.6(a) to the relevant Taxing Authority by electronic funds transfer or wire transfer or pay to Purchaser, pursuant to Section 8.11, such amount either by delivery of a certified check drawn payable to the relevant Taxing Authority or Purchaser Common Stock or wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account as directed in writing by the Purchaser, not later than the latest of (i) fifteen (15) days after provision to Agent of the Indemnified Tax Statement, (ii) three (3) business days before the required payment date of such Tax, or (iii) in the case of a disputed amount, three (3) business days after final resolution pursuant to Section 7.6(a)(iii) of any dispute regarding the amount shown on the Indemnified Tax Statement.
     (c) Taxable Year Closing; Allocation of Taxes. Purchaser shall, unless prohibited by applicable law, cause the taxable periods of the Companies to end as of the close of the Closing Date. Purchaser shall not permit the Companies to take any actions after Closing on the Closing Date that are out of the ordinary course of business, except as required by applicable Rules, this Agreement or consented to by the Agent. For purposes of this Agreement, Taxes incurred by the Companies with respect to a taxable period that includes but does not end on the Closing Date, shall be allocated to the portion of the taxable period ending on the Closing Date: (i) except as provided in (ii) and (iii) below, to the extent feasible, on a specific identification basis, according to the date of the event or transaction giving rise to the Tax, and (ii) except as provided in (iii) below, with respect to periodically assessed ad valorem Taxes and Taxes not otherwise reasonably allocable to specific transactions or events, in proportion to the number of days in such period occurring through the Closing Date compared to the total number of days in such taxable period, and (iii) in the case of any Tax based upon or related to income or receipts, in an amount equal to the Tax which would be payable if the relevant taxable period ended on the Closing Date. Any credits relating to a taxable period that begins before and ends after the Closing Date shall be taken into account as though the relevant taxable period ended on the Closing Date. All determinations necessary to give effect to the foregoing allocations shall be made in a manner consistent with prior practices of the Companies.
     (d) Amended Returns. Except as required by applicable Rules or in connection with an audit resolved pursuant to Section 7.6(f) (including consistent correlative adjustments to Tax Returns for non-audited taxable periods), no party or affiliate of a party may amend or cause the amendment of a Tax Return of the

- 41 -


 

Companies, or file or amend any Tax election, or file a Tax Return after the due date thereof, concerning the Companies, in each case, with respect to any taxable period beginning on or before the Closing Date that would affect the amount of any indemnity liability under Section 8.3 without the written consent of the Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Purchaser shall, upon request by the Agent, and at the expense of Sellers, cooperate in the preparation of and submission to the proper Taxing Authority of any amended Tax Return with respect to the Companies for any taxable period ending before the Closing Date to the extent appropriate to reduce or prevent indemnity liability under Section 8.3.
     (e) Overpayments and Overaccruals Related to Indemnified Taxes. To the extent that any determination of Tax liability, whether as the result of an audit or examination, a claim for refund, the filing of an amended Tax Return or otherwise, results in a determination of an overpayment of Taxes for any period, or portion thereof, ending on or before the Closing Date that are related to Taxes that were indemnified by Sellers under Section 8.3(b)(iii), Purchaser shall offset the amount of such overpayment against any unpaid indemnity obligation of Sellers in respect of Taxes for which indemnity would be owed under Section 8.3(b)(iii), and shall promptly pay to the Agent for the benefit of the Sellers an amount equal to the lesser of (a) the portion of such overpayment that has not been so offset and (b) any net indemnity obligations previously satisfied by Sellers in respect of Taxes of the Companies pursuant to Section 8.3(b)(iii). Such offset or payment shall be made by Purchaser promptly after receipt by (or crediting for the benefit of) Purchaser or its Affiliates.
     (f) Audits and Contests Regarding Taxes. Any party who receives, or whose Affiliate receives, any notice of a pending or threatened Tax audit, assessment, or adjustment against or with respect to any of the Companies which may give rise to a right to indemnification pursuant to the terms of Article VIII shall promptly notify the Agent and Purchaser within five (5) Business Days of the receipt of such notice. Purchaser and the Agent each agree to consult with and to keep the other informed on a regular basis regarding the status of any Tax audit or proceeding to the extent that such audit or proceeding could affect a liability of the parties hereto (including indemnity obligations hereunder). The Agent shall have the right to represent any of the Companies’ interests in any Tax audit or administrative or judicial proceeding pertaining to taxable periods ending on or before the Closing Date and to employ counsel of his choice, but reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser, at his expense, and shall control the disposition of any issue involved in such proceeding; provided that Purchaser shall have the right to participate in such proceeding at its own expense, and shall be entitled to control the disposition of any issue involved in such proceeding which does not affect a potential claim for indemnity under Section 8.3. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.6(f), the Agent shall not, without the Purchaser’s consent, agree to any settlement with respect to any Tax if such settlement could adversely affect any Tax liability of the Purchaser, its Affiliates or (with respect to any taxable period or portion thereof beginning after the Closing Date) any Company. Both Purchaser and the Sellers (through the Agent) shall be entitled to represent their own interests in light of their responsibilities (including indemnity obligations) for the related Taxes, at their own expense, in any audit or administrative or judicial proceedings involving a taxable period of the Companies that

- 42 -


 

includes but does not end on the Closing Date or involving both a taxable period of any of the Companies ending on or before the Closing Date and a taxable period ending after the Closing Date and no such audit or proceeding may be settled or compromised by the Agent or Purchaser without the consent of both the Agent and Purchaser, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 7.6(f), the provisions of Article VIII shall govern the conduct of any Tax audit or administrative or judicial proceedings with respect to which an Indemnity Claim may be made.
     (g) Cooperation, Access to Information and Records Retention. The Agent and Purchaser shall cooperate, and cause their Representatives and Affiliates to cooperate, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other in connection with the preparation and filing of Tax Returns as provided herein and any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes relating to the Companies. Such cooperation shall include the provision of records and information which are reasonably relevant to any such Tax Return, audit, litigation or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. Purchaser agrees (i) to retain all books and records relevant to Taxes of the Companies (including Tax Returns) relating to any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until the expiration of the statute of limitations for assessment of Taxes for such respective taxable period, and (ii) to give the Agent reasonable written notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any such books and records and, if the Agent so requests, Purchaser shall allow the Agent to take possession or copy of such books and records.
     (h) Tax Certificates. Purchaser and the Agent agree, upon request of the other, to use all reasonable efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any Governmental Authority as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any Tax that could be imposed (including with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement).
     (i) Characterization of Indemnity Payments. The parties agree to treat any payment made by Sellers to Purchaser as an adjustment to the Merger Consideration, to the extent it may properly be so treated for income Tax purposes.
     7.7. Section 368(a) Reorganization Covenants.
     (a) Prior to the Effective Time, each party will use its best efforts to cause the Merger to qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code and, either before or after the Merger, no party will take any action reasonably likely to cause the Merger not to qualify as such reorganization. Pursuant to the foregoing, each party agrees to make such commercially reasonable additions or modifications to the terms of this Agreement as may be reasonably necessary to permit the Merger so to qualify.
     (b) The Purchaser will cause the Surviving Corporation or other members of the Purchaser “qualified group” (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section

- 43 -


 

1.368-1(d)(4)(ii)) to either continue the historic business of Target or use a significant portion of Target’s historic business assets in a business, both within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.368-1(d).
     (c) The parties hereto agree that, unless otherwise required by law, they (i) will report in their respective federal income Tax Returns for the taxable period including the Closing Date that the Merger qualified as a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code, (ii) will not take any Tax reporting position inconsistent with the characterization of the Merger as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, and (iii) will properly file with their federal income Tax Returns all information required by Treasury Regulations Section 1.368-3. If either party determines that it is required by law to take any actions contrary to those contemplated by the immediately preceding sentence, it will, prior to taking any such action, notify the other party and work in good faith to modify the terms, if possible, of this Agreement so that it will not be required by law to take any actions contrary to those contemplated by the immediately preceding sentence.
     7.8. Certain Post-Closing Obligations. Sellers shall provide Purchaser with copies of the results of pending state and federal litigation searches regarding Target in the following counties: McHenry County, Illinois; Norfolk County, Massachusetts; Monmouth County, New Jersey; Bennington County, Vermont; and Falls Church County, Virginia, as such results are received by the Sellers, but in no event later than 21 days after the Closing.
ARTICLE VIII.

     8.1. Survival of Representations, Warranties and Covenants.
     (a) The respective representations, warranties and covenants of each of the parties to this Agreement shall be deemed to be material and to have been relied upon by the parties hereto, and shall survive the Closing and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.
     (b) No party or other Person entitled to indemnification under this Article VIII shall commence any suit or proceeding alleging an Indemnity Claim due to a breach of any representation or warranty in Article IV, V or VI of this Agreement or pursuant to Section 8.3 or 8.4 after the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the Closing (the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the Closing Date being called the “Cut-Off Date”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the prohibition contained in the first sentence of this Section 8.1(b) shall not apply to:
     (i) any Indemnity Claim under Section 8.3(a)(i), 8.3(b)(i) or 8.4(a) relating to Sections 4.9 (taxes), 4.17 (employee plans), 4.18 (environmental matters), 4.20(b) (intellectual property) or 6.10(a) (intellectual property), it being agreed that the representations and warranties of those Sections and any Indemnity Claim arising under Sections 8.3(b)(ii), (iii), (vi) or (ix) shall continue until the forty-eight (48) month anniversary of the Closing (regardless of whether

     (iii) any party or other Person entitled to indemnification under this Article VIII to the extent that such party or Person asserted in writing a specific Indemnity Claim prior to the date by which an Indemnity Claim relating to the representations and warranties in question must be commenced pursuant to this Section 8.1(b), in which event the relevant representations and warranties shall continue in effect and remain a basis for indemnity with respect to each such Indemnity Claim that was asserted prior to the applicable expiration date until such Indemnity Claim is finally resolved (pursuant to a non-appealable order by a court of competent jurisdiction or agreement of Agent and Purchaser).
     (c) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Article VIII to the contrary, no party or other Person shall be entitled to bring any Indemnity Claim under this Article VIII after the earlier of (i) the date that is 180 days after the closing of a transaction or series of transactions pursuant to which Purchaser (or any Person who acquires all or substantially all of Purchaser’s assets or all or substantially all of the Purchaser Common Stock, in either such case in exchange for securities of such Person or any successor to Purchaser by merger) becomes subject to Section 13 or Section 15 of the Exchange Act, and (ii) the consummation of a Change of Control.
     8.2. No Implied Representations. Except in the case of any claims for actual fraud, Purchaser, Merger Sub, Target and Sellers acknowledge that, except as expressly provided in Articles IV, V and VI of this Agreement, no party hereto, and none of the Representatives of any party hereto, has made or is making any representations or warranties whatsoever, implied or otherwise.

     (i) any breach of any representation or warranty made by Target in this Agreement;
     (ii) any breach by Target or Agent of any of the covenants of this Agreement;
     (iii) notwithstanding any disclosure in this Agreement (including in the Schedules), any Liability for Taxes (A) of the Companies for all taxable periods, or portions thereof (determined in accordance with the allocation provisions of Section 7.6(c)(i) — (iii)), ending on or before the Closing Date, or (B) owing by any Person (other than the Companies) for which any Company is liable as a result of transactions or circumstances occurring or existing on or before the Closing Date, including without limitation, under any agreement or arrangements with respect to payment of any Tax in effect on or before the Closing Date, in each case, except to the extent accrued on the Closing Date Balance Sheet;
     (iv) notwithstanding any disclosure in this Agreement (including in the Schedules), any Liability for (A) Transaction Expenses, or (B) vacation pay or sick pay, in each case, except to the extent accrued on the Closing Date Balance Sheet;
     (v) any Claim relating to any Dissenting Shares;
     (vi) the matters disclosed on Schedule 4.15 and as Items 2 and 3 on Schedule 4.20(b), in each case except to the extent accrued on the Closing Date Balance Sheet;

     (viii) notwithstanding any representation or warranty contained herein, or any limitations or qualifications of, or exceptions to (whether in a Schedule attached hereto or otherwise), any such representation and warranty, except as set forth on Schedule 8.3(b), any obligation or liability (including accounts payable), absolute or contingent, known or unknown, liquidated or unliquidated, whether due or to become due and regardless of when or by whom asserted (a “Liability”) including, without limitation, deferred Tax liabilities, vacation time or pay, severance pay, future amounts payable arising out of prior transactions, and any other Liabilities relating to or arising out of any act, omission, transaction, circumstance, sale of goods or services, or other condition which occurred or

- 46 -


 

existed on or before the Closing Date, which is not fully shown or provided for in the Closing Date Balance Sheet, except under the executory portion of any Contract (A) by which any Company is bound on the Closing Date, (B) which, if required by this Agreement, is disclosed in a Schedule hereto, and (C) the existence of which does not otherwise constitute or result from a breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of this Agreement or a breach or default by either Company under any Contract; and
     (ix) notwithstanding any disclosure in this Agreement (including in the Schedules), any Liability relating to the cancellation of options to purchase shares of Target Common Stock pursuant to the 2004 Israeli Stock Option Plan as contemplated by Section 1.11.
     8.4. Indemnification by Purchaser. Subject to the terms and conditions herein, including the limitations set forth in Sections 8.1 and 8.6, Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless Seller Protected Parties from and against and in respect of any and all Losses incurred by such Persons resulting from, in connection with or arising out of, or any Claim relating to (a) any breach of any representation or warranty made by Purchaser in this Agreement, or (b) any breach by Purchaser or Merger Sub of any of the covenants of this Agreement.
     8.5. Certain Rights. Notwithstanding the provisions of any representation or warranty that includes, or requires disclosure of matters above, a specific monetary threshold, if any party hereto breaches any of such representations and warranties due to the monetary thresholds contained therein having been exceeded, then Losses for each such breached representation and warranty shall include the full amount of the Losses incurred by the Purchaser Protected Parties or Seller Protected Parties, as applicable, relating to any such matter notwithstanding the monetary thresholds listed in such representations or warranties. Nothing in this Agreement shall limit any obligation of Sellers by virtue of the fact that Target has no obligation or Liability after the Closing for any breach of any representation, warranty or covenant made by Target, and there shall be no obligation on the part of Purchaser to seek recourse against Target with respect to any such claim or demand.
     8.6. Limitations.
     (a) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) the amount of any Losses for which indemnification is to be provided pursuant to the provisions of this Article VIII shall be reduced by (i) any amounts recovered or recoverable by the Indemnified Party under insurance policies with respect to such Loss, net of any increased premiums or self retention payments related thereto, and (ii) the amount of any actual reduction in Taxes of an Indemnified Party or its Affiliates, which are attributable to such Losses and (b) Losses shall not include any specific liability or reserve to the extent accrued for on the Closing Date Balance Sheet (as finally determined in accordance with Section 2.2). Any amounts payable by the Indemnifying Party to or on behalf of an Indemnified Party pursuant to this Agreement shall be reduced to the extent that, taking into account the effect of the payment itself, the Indemnified Party actually realizes a Tax reduction attributable to a Loss; provided, that, if a Tax reduction has not been realized in the taxable period during which an Indemnifying Party makes an indemnification payment or

- 47 -


 

the Indemnified Party incurs or pays any loss, the Indemnified Party shall thereafter make payments to the Indemnifying Party at the end of each subsequent taxable period to reflect the net Tax reductions subsequently realized by the Indemnified Party.
     (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event will any Seller be liable for and pay the Purchaser Protected Parties (i) under clause (a)(i) or (b)(i) of Section 8.3 on account of any breach of representations or warranties under this Agreement (except for a breach of any of the representations and warranties contained in Sections 4.1 (organization; capitalization), 4.2 (authority), 4.9 (taxes), 4.10 (but only the first sentence thereof) (title), 4.17 (employee plans), 4.18 (environmental matters), 4.20(b) (intellectual property), 5.1 (ownership) or 5.2 (authority) as to which this clause (i) shall not apply) or under clause (b)(viii) of Section 8.3, in any such case to the extent the aggregate Losses for Indemnity Claims under such Sections exceed such Seller’s Total Consideration Pro-Rata Percentage of $2,400,000, (ii) with respect to Losses on account of any breach of any of the representations or warranties contained in Section 4.20(b) (intellectual property) to the extent the aggregate Losses for Indemnity Claims under such Section exceed such Seller’s Total Consideration Pro-Rata Percentage of $10,000,000, and (iii) with respect to Losses resulting from fraud by Target or any Seller or on account of any breach of any of the representations or warranties contained in Sections 4.1 (organization; capitalization), 4.2 (authority), 4.9 (taxes), 4.10 (but only the first sentence thereof) (title), 4.17 (employee plans), 4.18 (environmental matters), 5.1 (ownership) or 5.2 (authority) to the extent the aggregate Losses for Indemnity Claims under such Sections, together with all other Indemnity Claims under Section 8.3, exceed such Seller’s Total Consideration Pro-Rata Percentage of the Merger Consideration. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the parties hereto agree that in no event will any Seller be liable for or pay the Purchaser Protected Parties pursuant to Section 8.3 in excess of such Seller’s Total Consideration Pro-Rata Percentage of the Merger Consideration.
     (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event will Purchaser be liable for and pay the Seller Protected Parties, in the aggregate, (i) under clause (a) of Section 8.4 on account of any breach of representations or warranties under this Agreement (except for a breach of any of the representations and warranties contained in Sections 6.1 (organization), 6.2 (authority), 6.4 (capitalization) or 6.10(a) (intellectual property) as to which this clause (i) shall not apply) to the extent the aggregate Losses for Indemnity Claims under such Sections exceed $2,400,000, (ii) with respect to Losses on account of any breach of any of the representations or warranties contained in Section 6.10(a) to the extent the aggregate Losses for Indemnity Claims under such Section exceed $10,000,000, and (iii) with respect to Losses resulting from fraud by Purchaser or on account of any breach of any of the representations or warranties contained in Sections 6.1 (organization), 6.2 (authority) or 6.4 (capitalization) to the extent the aggregate Losses for Indemnity Claims under such Sections, together with all other Indemnity Claims under Section 8.4, exceed the Merger Consideration. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the parties hereto agree that in no event will Purchaser be liable for or pay Seller Protected Parties pursuant to Section 8.4 in excess of the Merger Consideration.

- 48 -


 

     (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no claim for indemnification may be made under Section 8.3(a)(i) or 8.3(b)(i) on account of any breach of representations or warranties under this Agreement (except for a breach of any of the representations and warranties contained in Sections 4.1 (organization; capitalization), 4.2 (authority), 5.1 (ownership) or 5.2 (authority) as to which the Purchaser Deductible Amount shall not apply) or under clause (b)(viii) of Section 8.3 in any such case unless and until the Purchaser Protected Parties have incurred aggregate Losses for which the Purchaser Protected Parties are entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement in excess of $150,000 in the aggregate (the “Purchaser Deductible Amount”) and then only to the extent that such aggregate amount of Losses exceeds the Purchaser Deductible Amount.
     (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no claim for indemnification may be made under Section 8.4(a) on account of any breach of representations or warranties under this Agreement (except for a breach of any of the representations and warranties contained in Sections 6.1 (organization), 6.2 (authority) or 6.4 (capitalization) as to which the Seller Deductible Amount shall not apply) unless and until the Seller Protected Parties have incurred aggregate Losses for which the Seller Protected Parties are entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement in excess of $150,000 in the aggregate (the “Seller Deductible Amount”) and then only to the extent that such aggregate amount of Losses exceeds the Seller Deductible Amount.
     8.7. Cooperation. Subject to the provisions of Section 8.8, a party or parties against whom an Indemnity Claim has been asserted (individually and collectively, “Indemnifying Party”) shall have the right, at its own expense, to participate in the defense of any action or proceeding brought by a third party which resulted in such Indemnity Claim, and if such right is exercised, the party or parties entitled to indemnification (individually and collectively, “Indemnified Party”) and the Indemnifying Party shall reasonably cooperate in the defense of such action or proceeding.
     8.8. Indemnification Procedure for Third Party Claims.
     (a) In the event that subsequent to the Closing Date any Indemnified Party becomes aware of an Indemnity Claim on account of or in connection with any Claim or the commencement of any action or proceeding against such Indemnified Party by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement (including any Governmental Authority) (a “Third Party Claim”), as to which such Indemnified Party would be entitled to assert an Indemnity Claim, such Indemnified Party shall promptly give written notice thereof together with a statement of any available information regarding such Third Party Claim, including, to the extent known by such Indemnified Party, the alleged factual basis for the Third Party Claim and the Losses claimed and referring to the provision of this Agreement pursuant to which indemnification is sought (the “Notice of Claim”) to the Indemnifying Party promptly after learning of such Third Party Claim. Failure by the Indemnified Party to provide notice on a timely basis of a Third Party Claim shall not affect the right of the Indemnified Party to obtain indemnification as a result of such Third Party Claim, except to the extent of any direct damages caused by such delay. If (i) the Indemnifying Party is any Seller and (A) such Third Party Claim does not seek

injunctive or other equitable relief involving Purchaser or its Affiliates, (B) a Purchaser Protected Party’s insurance carrier does not require, as a condition to such Purchaser Protected Party’s eligibility to recover insurance proceeds on account of such Third Party Claim, that such carrier control the defense of any such Third Party Claim, (C) such Third Party Claim does not seek recourse which could reasonably be expected to adversely affect the ongoing business or operations (including customer, supplier or employee relationships) of a Purchaser Protected Party or any of its Affiliates (including their rights to use the Company Intellectual Property) or otherwise have a Material Adverse Effect on Purchaser or its Affiliates, (D) the Agent can demonstrate that it has sufficient amounts which may be used in connection with such Third Party Claim to (I) defend such Third Party Claim, and (II) defend all other Third Party Claims then pending which the Agent is defending pursuant to this Section 8.8, and (E) the Indemnifying Party has acknowledged in writing to the Indemnified Party its unconditional obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party for such Third Party Claim (subject to the limitations and conditions set forth herein), or (ii) if the Indemnifying Party is Purchaser, then in any such case, except in the case of Claims described in Section 7.6(f), the Indemnifying Party shall have the right, upon written notice to the Indemnified Party (the “Defense Notice”) within fifteen (15) days of its receipt from the Indemnified Party of the Notice of Claim, to conduct at its expense the defense against such Claim in its own name, or, if necessary, in the name of the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party shall have the right to approve the defense counsel representing the Indemnifying Party in such defense, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and in the event the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party cannot agree upon such counsel within ten (10) days after the Defense Notice is provided, then the Indemnifying Party shall propose an alternate defense counsel, which shall be subject again to the Indemnified Party’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
     (b) In the event that the Indemnifying Party shall fail to give the Defense Notice within the time and as prescribed by Section 8.8(a), or if the Indemnifying Party does not have the right to defend such Third Party Claim pursuant to Section 8.8(a), then, except in the case of Claims described in Section 7.6(f), in either such event the Indemnified Party shall have the right to conduct such defense in good faith with counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnifying Party, but the Indemnified Party (or any insurance carrier defending such Third Party Claim on the Indemnified Party’s behalf) shall be prohibited from compromising or settling the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
     (c) In the event that the Indemnifying Party does deliver a Defense Notice and thereby elects to conduct the defense of such Third Party Claim in accordance with Section 8.8(a), the Indemnified Party will cooperate with and make available to the Indemnifying Party such assistance and materials as it may reasonably request, and such cooperation shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party. Without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party (and any insurance carrier defending such Third Party Claim on the Indemnifying Party’s behalf) will not enter into any settlement of any Third Party Claim if pursuant to or as a result of such settlement,

- 50 -


 

such settlement would lead to Liability or create any financial or other obligation on the part of any Indemnified Party for which such Indemnified Party is not entitled to be indemnified hereunder. If a firm offer is made to settle a Third Party Claim, which offer the Indemnifying Party is permitted to settle under this Section 8.8, and the Indemnifying Party desires to accept and agree to such offer, the Indemnifying Party will give written notice to the Indemnified Party to that effect. If the Indemnified Party objects to such firm offer within fifteen days after its receipt of such notice, the Indemnified Party may continue to contest or defend such Third Party Claim and, in such event, the maximum amount for which the Indemnifying Party shall be liable in connection with such Third Party Claim will not exceed the amount of such settlement offer, plus costs and expenses paid or incurred up to the point such notice had been delivered. Failure at any time of the Indemnifying Party to use commercially reasonable efforts to defend a Third Party Claim as required herein shall entitle the Indemnified Party to assume the defense and settlement of such Third Party Claim as if the Indemnifying Party had never elected to do so as provided in this Section.
     (d) Any judgment entered or settlement agreed upon in the manner provided herein shall be binding upon the Indemnifying Party, and shall be conclusively deemed to be an obligation with respect to which the Indemnifying Party shall be obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party, in each case subject to the Indemnifying Party’s right to appeal an appealable judgment or order and, in all cases, subject to the limitations set forth in this Article VIII.
     8.9. Nature of Other Liabilities.
     (a) In the event any Indemnified Party should have an Indemnity Claim which does not involve a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall transmit to the Indemnifying Party a written notice (the “Indemnity Notice”) describing in detail the nature of the Indemnity Claim and the basis of the Indemnified Party’s request for indemnification and, if known by the Indemnified Party, a calculation of Losses attributable to such Indemnity Claim (“Asserted Damages Amount”).
     (b) Within thirty (30) days after delivery of an Indemnity Notice to the Indemnifying Party a written response (the “Response”) in which the Indemnifying Party shall: (i) agree that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive all of the Asserted Damages Amount, in which event the Indemnifying Party shall promptly pay to the Indemnified Party the Asserted Damages Amount; (ii) agree that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive part, but not all, of the Asserted Damages Amount (such portion, the “Agreed Portion”), in which event the Indemnifying Party shall promptly pay to the Indemnified Party the Agreed Portion; or (iii) dispute that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive any of the Asserted Damages Amount. If the Indemnifying Party does not deliver the Response within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Indemnity Notice, the Indemnity Claim specified by the Indemnified Party in the Indemnity Notice shall become the obligation of the Indemnifying Party.
     (c) In the event that the Indemnifying Party shall (i) dispute that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive any of the Asserted Damages Amount, or (ii)

- 51 -


 

agree that the Indemnified Party is entitled to only the Agreed Portion of the Asserted Damages Amount, the Agent and Purchaser shall attempt in good faith to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of the indemnification claims that comprise the Asserted Damages Amount (or the portion of the Asserted Damages Amount not comprising the Agreed Portion). If the Agent and Purchaser should so agree, a memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by both such parties. If no such agreement can be reached after good faith negotiation within sixty (60) days after delivery of a Response, either Purchaser or the Agent may commence litigation of any matter set forth in the applicable Indemnity Notice.
     8.10. Rights of Recoupment and Set-Off. Purchaser shall have the right to recoup and set off any amounts owing to it or any other Purchaser Protected Party from a Seller for any Indemnity Claims against any and all amounts due or to become due to such Seller from Purchaser under this Agreement or otherwise; provided that if there has not been a final determination that such amounts are payable to Purchaser or any other Purchaser Protected Party from a Seller (as evidenced either by the agreement of Purchaser and the Agent, or by entry of a final, nonappealable order by a court of competent jurisdiction), then Purchaser shall deposit such amounts with an escrow agent pursuant to an escrow agreement reasonably acceptable to Purchaser and the Agent, to be held by such escrow agent and then distributed only pursuant to the agreement of Purchaser and the Agent, or a final, nonappealable order by a court of competent jurisdiction. The parties acknowledge and agree that the rights of recoupment and set off set forth in this Section 8.10 are a condition to Purchaser agreeing to enter into and perform this Agreement and that the rights of Sellers under this Agreement are subject to such rights.
     8.11. Payment of Losses.
     (a) All Losses in respect of any Indemnity Claim payable by any Seller shall be paid, at such Seller’s option, either in cash or by such Seller delivering to Purchaser a number of shares of Purchaser Common Stock having a Current Value equal to the amount of such Losses. If any Losses owed by a Seller are not paid to Purchaser by one of the methods described in the first sentence of this Section 8.11(a) within ten (10) days of a final determination that such Losses are payable (as evidenced either by the agreement of Purchaser and the Agent, or by entry of a final, nonappealable order by a court of competent jurisdiction), and Purchaser is unable or unwilling to recover such Losses pursuant to Section 8.10, such Seller (and its transferees, if any) shall be deemed to have forfeited, and Purchaser shall reduce, on its books and records and for all purposes, the number of             shares of Purchaser Common Stock which were owned by such Seller immediately after the Effective Time by a number of shares of Purchaser Common Stock having a Current Value equal to such unpaid Losses.
     (b) All Losses in respect of any Indemnity Claim against Purchaser may be paid, at Purchaser’s option, either in cash or by Purchaser delivering to the applicable Seller a number of shares of Purchaser Common Stock having a Current Value as of the date such Indemnity Claim is payable equal to the amount of such Losses within ten (10) days of a final determination that such Losses are payable (as evidenced either by the agreement of Purchaser and the Agent, or by entry of a final, nonappealable order by a court of competent jurisdiction).

     8.12. Exclusive Remedy. Except with respect to any Claim based on actual and intentional fraud made against the Person committing such fraud or seeking injunctive or other equitable relief for breach of this Agreement, the rights and obligations of the parties under this Article VIII shall be the sole and exclusive rights and obligations of the parties with respect to any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement in this Agreement and shall be in lieu of any other rights or remedies to which the party entitled to indemnification hereunder would otherwise be entitled as a result of such breach.
     8.13. Contract Intent and Construction; Avoidance of Ambiguity. The rights and remedies of any Person based upon, arising out of or otherwise in respect of any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement shall in no way be limited by the fact that the act, omission, occurrence or other state of facts upon which any Claim of any such inaccuracy, breach or indemnity is based may also be the subject matter of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement as to which there is no inaccuracy or breach. BY WAY OF EXAMPLE AND TO REFLECT THE INTENT, AGREEMENT AND UNDERSTANDING OF THE PARTIES, THE EXISTENCE OF ANY FACTS OR CIRCUMSTANCES WHICH WOULD CONSTITUTE A BREACH OF SECTION 4.5 WILL CONSTITUTE A BREACH OF SECTION 4.5 (AS TO WHICH PURCHASER IS ENTITLED TO INDEMNIFICATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF THIS ARTICLE VIII) EVEN THOUGH THE EXISTENCE OF SUCH FACTS OR CIRCUMSTANCES MIGHT NOT CONSTITUTE A BREACH OF A MORE SPECIFIC REPRESENTATION AND WARRANTY OR ANOTHER REPRESENTATION AND WARRANTY THAT IS QUALIFIED BY KNOWLEDGE OR OTHERWISE.
