AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER

This Agreement and Plan of Merger (“Agreement”) is made and entered into as of February 3, 2015 (the “Agreement Date”), by and among Under Armour, Inc., a Maryland corporation (“Parent”); Marathon Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned Subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”); MyFitnessPal, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”); and Fortis Advisors LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as the Securityholders’ Agent (as defined in Section 10.1). Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in Exhibit A.

RECITALS

A. Parent, Merger Sub and the Company intend to effect a merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company (the “Merger”) in accordance with this Agreement and the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”). Upon consummation of the Merger, Merger Sub will cease to exist, and the Company will become a wholly-owned Subsidiary of Parent.

B. The respective boards of directors of Merger Sub, Parent and the Company have approved this Agreement.

C. As an inducement for Parent and Merger Sub to enter into this Agreement, concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, each of the Major Stockholders is entering into an Indemnification Agreement in favor of Parent (an “Indemnification Agreement”).

D. As an inducement for Parent and Merger Sub to enter into this Agreement, concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, certain individuals who hold shares or options to purchase shares of the Company are entering into Noncompetition and Non-Solicitation Agreements in favor of Parent (collectively the “Noncompetition Agreements”), which shall become effective at the Effective Time (as defined in Section 1.3).

E. As an inducement for Parent and Merger Sub to enter into this Agreement, promptly following the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Company will deliver to Parent and Merger Sub written consents of the Major Stockholders, in a form agreed to by Parent and the Company (the “Stockholder Written Consent”), which shall together be sufficient to approve and adopt this Agreement and approve each of the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Merger, in accordance with the Charter Documents, the DGCL and the CGCL.

AGREEMENT

The parties to this Agreement agree as follows:

 

1. DESCRIPTION OF TRANSACTION

1.1 Merger of Merger Sub into the Company. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, and in accordance with the relevant provisions of the DGCL, at the Effective Time, Merger Sub shall be merged with and into the Company, and the separate existence of Merger Sub shall cease. The Company will continue as the surviving


corporation in the Merger (the “Surviving Corporation”) and a wholly-owned Subsidiary of Parent.

1.2 Effect of the Merger. The Merger shall have the effects set forth in this Agreement and in the applicable provisions of the DGCL.

1.3 Closing; Effective Time. The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall take place at the offices of King & Spalding LLP, 1180 Peachtree Street, Atlanta, Georgia 30309 at 10:00 a.m. (Atlanta Time) on a date to be designated by Parent, which shall be no later than the later to occur of (i) the fifth Business Day after the satisfaction or waiver of the last to be satisfied or waived of the conditions set forth in Sections 6 and 7 (other than those conditions set forth in Sections 6.6(e), 6.6(f) and 7.4, which are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions) or (ii) May 31, 2015 (provided, however, upon completion of the Credit Facility Amendment, this clause (ii) shall be of no further force and effect), or at such other time and/or date as Parent and the Company may jointly designate. The date on which the Closing actually takes place is referred to in this Agreement as the “Closing Date.” Contemporaneously with or as promptly as practicable after the Closing, the parties hereto shall cause a certificate of merger (the “Certificate of Merger”) conforming to the requirements of the DGCL to be filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. The Merger shall become effective as of the time that the Certificate of Merger is filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware or at such later date or time as may be agreed by the Company and Merger Sub in writing and specified in the Certificate of Merger in accordance with the DGCL (the effective time of the Merger being hereinafter referred to as the “Effective Time”). For the avoidance of doubt, all references in this Agreement to “immediately prior to the Closing” shall be deemed to refer to a point in time immediately before the Closing and after the conversion of the Preferred Stock into Common Stock.

1.4 Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws; Directors and Officers. Unless otherwise determined by Parent prior to the Effective Time:

(a) the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation shall be amended and restated as of the Effective Time in a form acceptable to Parent;

(b) the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation shall be amended and restated as of the Effective Time to conform to the bylaws of Merger Sub as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time; and

(c) the directors and officers of the Surviving Corporation immediately after the Effective Time shall be those individuals designated by Parent in its sole discretion.

1.5 Conversion of Shares.

(a) Conversion. Subject to Sections 1.5(g), 1.7 and 1.8, at the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any further action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company, any stockholder of the Company or any other Person:

 

2


(i) each share of Capital Stock held in the Company’s treasury or owned by Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or any direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent, Merger Sub or the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time, if any, shall be extinguished and canceled without payment of any consideration with respect thereto;

(ii) each share of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (all such issued and outstanding shares, other than any share of Common Stock to be cancelled pursuant to Section 1.5(a)(i), the “Outstanding Capital Stock”) shall be converted automatically into the right to receive (following the surrender of the certificate representing such share of Common Stock or the delivery of an appropriate affidavit, in each case, in accordance with Section 1.8):

(A) an amount in cash per share of Common Stock equal to: (1) Per Share Amount; minus (2) the Per Share Escrow Amount; minus (3) the Per Share Expense Amount;

(B) any cash disbursements required to be made out of the Escrow Amount with respect to such share to the former holder thereof in accordance with the Escrow Agreement, as and when such disbursements are required to be made;

(C) any cash disbursements required to be made out of the Expense Amount with respect to such share to the former holder thereof in accordance with this Agreement, as and when such disbursements are required to be made.

(iii) each share of the common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted automatically into one fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation and shall constitute the only outstanding share of capital stock of the Surviving Corporation at the Effective Time. From and after the Effective Time, all certificates representing shares of common stock of Merger Sub shall be deemed for all purposes to represent the number of shares of common stock of the Surviving Corporation into which the shares of common stock of Merger Sub were converted in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence.

The amount of cash, if any, that each Effective Time Holder is entitled to receive at any particular time for the shares of Outstanding Capital Stock held by such Effective Time Holder or the shares of Capital Stock subject to Outstanding Vested Options (as defined in Section 1.6(a)) shall be rounded to the nearest cent (with $0.005 being rounded upward) and computed after aggregating the cash amounts payable at such time for all shares of each class and series of Outstanding Capital Stock represented by a particular stock certificate and all Outstanding Vested Options held by such Effective Time Holder represented by a particular option grant.

(b) Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement:

 

3


(i) “Adjusted Transaction Value” shall be: (A) $475,000,000; plus (B) the Cash Amount, as set forth and represented in the Merger Consideration Certificate; minus (C) the aggregate amount of the Indebtedness; and minus (D) the Company Transaction Expenses which remain unpaid as of immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(ii) “Aggregate Exercise Amount” means the aggregate dollar amount that would have been payable to the Company as purchase price for the exercise of all Outstanding Vested Options and Outstanding Unvested Options outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(iii) “Cash Amount” means the amount of cash, cash equivalents or marketable securities on Closing Date Cash Statement.

(iv) “Escrow Amount” means $31,000,000.

(v) “Expense Amount” means $1,000,000.

(vi) “Fully Diluted Company Share Number” shall be the sum of, without duplication: (A) the aggregate number of shares of Outstanding Common Stock (including: (1) any such shares that are subject to a repurchase option or risk of forfeiture under any restricted stock purchase agreement or other Contract; (2) any such shares subject to issuance pursuant to Options that are exercised prior to the Effective Time; and (3) any such shares subject to issuance pursuant to the conversion prior to the Effective Time of any Preferred Stock); plus (B) the aggregate number of shares of Capital Stock purchasable under or otherwise subject to Outstanding Vested Options and Outstanding Unvested Options (it being understood that any other rights to purchase or acquire Capital Stock that terminate as of the Effective Time, if not exercised prior to the Closing, shall not be included in the Fully Diluted Company Share Number); plus (C) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that would be issuable upon the conversion of any convertible securities of the Company (other than shares of Preferred Stock) outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(vii) “Per Share Amount” means the amount obtained by dividing: (A) the sum of (1) the Adjusted Transaction Value plus (2) the Aggregate Exercise Amount; by (B) the Fully Diluted Company Share Number.

(viii) “Per Share Escrow Amount” means, with respect to each share of Outstanding Capital Stock held by a Non-Dissenting Stockholder and each share of Capital Stock subject to an Outstanding Vested Option, the amount obtained by dividing (A) the Escrow Amount by (B) the sum of (1) the aggregate number of shares of Capital Stock held by all Non-Dissenting Stockholders plus (2) the aggregate number of shares of Capital Stock purchasable under or otherwise subject to Outstanding Vested Options.

(ix) “Per Share Expense Amount” means, with respect to each share of Outstanding Capital Stock held by a Non-Dissenting Stockholder and each share of Capital Stock subject to an Outstanding Vested Option, the amount obtained by dividing (A) the Expense Amount by (B) the sum of (1) the aggregate number of shares of Capital

 

4


Stock held by all Non-Dissenting Stockholders plus (2) the aggregate number of shares of Capital Stock purchasable under or otherwise subject to Outstanding Vested Options.

(c) Escrow. An amount equal to the Escrow Amount shall be deposited by Parent in escrow at the Effective Time, and held and disbursed by the Escrow Agent in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Escrow Agreement”).

(d) Expense Fund. An amount equal to the Expense Amount shall be deposited by Parent with the Securityholders’ Agent at the Effective Time, and held and disbursed by the Securityholders’ Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(e) Payment of Indebtedness. At the Effective Time, Parent shall, on behalf of the Company, pay to such account or accounts as the Company specifies to Parent pursuant to the Closing Date Indebtedness Statement (as defined in Section 4.11), the aggregate amount of the Indebtedness.

(f) Payment of Company Transaction Expenses. At the Effective Time, Parent shall, on behalf of the Company, pay to such account or accounts as the Company specifies to Parent pursuant to the Merger Consideration Certificate the aggregate amount of the unpaid Company Transaction Expenses.

(g) Adjustments. If the Company, at any time or from time to time between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, declares or pays any dividend on Capital Stock payable in Capital Stock or in any right to acquire Capital Stock, or effects a subdivision of the outstanding shares of Capital Stock into a greater number of shares of Capital Stock, or in the event the outstanding shares of Capital Stock shall be combined or consolidated, by reclassification or otherwise, into a lesser number of shares of Capital Stock, or a record date with respect to any of the foregoing shall occur during such period, then the amounts payable in respect of shares of Outstanding Capital Stock pursuant to Section 1.5(a) and the amounts payable in respect of shares of Capital Stock subject to Outstanding Vested Options pursuant to Section 1.6 shall be appropriately adjusted.

1.6 Treatment of Stock Options.

(a) Vested Stock Options. Subject to Section 1.8(h), each Option that is vested, outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time (including all Options that vest contingent upon the Merger) (each such Option being referred to in this Agreement as an “Outstanding Vested Option”) shall not be assumed or substituted with an equivalent option or right but shall terminate and shall be cancelled at the Effective Time, and the holder thereof shall be entitled to receive for each share of Capital Stock subject to such Outstanding Vested Option:

(i) an amount in cash equal to: (A) the Per Share Amount; minus (B) the exercise price per share of Capital Stock subject to such Outstanding Vested Option; minus (C) the Per Share Escrow Amount per share of Capital Stock minus (D) the Per Share Expense Amount per share of Capital Stock;

 

5


(ii) any cash disbursements required to be made out of the Escrow Amount with respect to such share of Capital Stock to the former holder of such Outstanding Vested Option in accordance with the Escrow Agreement, as and when such disbursements are required to be made; and

(iii) any cash disbursements required to be made out of the Expense Amount with respect to such share of Capital Stock to the former holder of such Outstanding Vested Option in accordance with this Agreement, as and when such disbursements are required to be made.

Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall take all action that may be necessary (under the Stock Plans or otherwise) to effectuate the provisions of this Section 1.6(a) and to ensure that, from and after the Effective Time, each holder of an Outstanding Vested Option cancelled as provided in this Section 1.6(a) shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the consideration specified in this Section 1.6(a), without interest.

(b) Unvested Stock Options.

(i) Non-employees. Except as may otherwise be provided in a separate written agreement (if any) entered into between a non-employee of an Acquired Company and the Parent or Surviving Corporation between the Agreement Date and Closing who is a holder of an Outstanding Unvested Option and the Company, as of the Effective Time, each Outstanding Unvested Option held by a non-employee of an Acquired Company shall have its vesting accelerated to be fully vested. For purposes of this Section 1.6(b)(i), “non-employees” excludes all non-employees of an Acquired Company who are no longer providing services to the Acquired Company as of the Agreement Date (and therefore all Outstanding Unvested Options held by any such non-employee of an Acquired Company who is no longer providing services shall be canceled prior to the Effective Time to the extent they have not already been canceled).

(ii) Employees. Except as may otherwise be provided in a separate written agreement (if any) between an employee of an Acquired Company who is a holder of an Outstanding Unvested Option and the Company, (i) as of the Effective Time, 50% of the shares subject to each such Outstanding Unvested Option shall have vesting accelerated to be fully vested with shares that would vest to be agreed upon in writing between Parent and the Company (provided that if any such holder has an odd number of Outstanding Unvested Options, the one Option remaining after calculating the amount that is 50% of such Outstanding Unvested Option shall have vesting accelerated to be fully vested), and (ii) as of the Effective Time, the remaining 50% of each such Outstanding Unvested Option shall be converted into and become an option to purchase Parent Common Stock, with such conversion effected through Parent (A) assuming such Outstanding Unvested Option or (B) replacing such Outstanding Unvested Option by issuing a reasonably equivalent replacement stock option to purchase Parent Common Stock in substitution therefor, in either case in accordance with the terms (as in effect as of the date of this Agreement) of the applicable Stock Plan, and the terms of the stock option agreement by which such Outstanding Unvested Option is evidenced and otherwise in compliance with the requirements of Code Sections 409A, 424(a) and 422

 

6


such that each such assumed or replaced Option is exempt from Code Section 409A and maintains its status as an “incentive stock option” (if applicable), to the extent permitted by the Code. All rights under the Outstanding Unvested Options which are assumed or replaced by Parent shall thereupon be converted into rights with respect to Parent Common Stock. Accordingly, from and after the Effective Time: (A) each Outstanding Unvested Option assumed or replaced by Parent may be exercised solely for shares of Parent Common Stock; (B) the number of shares of Parent Common Stock subject to each Outstanding Unvested Option assumed or replaced by Parent shall be determined by multiplying the number of shares of Company’s Common Stock that were subject to such Outstanding Unvested Option immediately prior to the Effective Time by the Conversion Ratio (as defined below), and rounding the resulting number down to the nearest whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock; (C) the per share exercise price for the Parent Common Stock issuable upon exercise of each Outstanding Unvested Option assumed or replaced by Parent shall be determined by dividing the per share exercise price of Common Stock subject to such Outstanding Unvested Option, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, by the Conversion Ratio, and rounding the resulting exercise price up to the nearest whole cent; and (D) subject to the terms of the stock option agreement by which such Outstanding Unvested Option is evidenced, any restriction on the exercise of any Outstanding Unvested Option assumed or replaced by Parent shall continue in full force and effect and the term, exercisability, vesting schedule and other provisions of such Outstanding Unvested Option shall otherwise remain unchanged as a result of the assumption or replacement of such Outstanding Company Option; provided, however, that Parent’s board of directors or a committee thereof shall succeed to the authority and responsibility of the Company’s board of directors or any committee thereof with respect to each Outstanding Unvested Option assumed or replaced by Parent. The “Conversion Ratio” means a fraction having a numerator equal to Per Share Amount and having a denominator equal to the average of the closing sale prices of a share of Parent Common Stock as reported by the New York Stock Exchange for each of the five consecutive trading days immediately preceding the Closing Date; provided, however, that if, between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, the outstanding shares of Company’s Common Stock or Parent Common Stock are changed into a different number or class of shares by reason of any stock split, division or subdivision of shares, stock dividend, reverse stock split, consolidation of shares, reclassification, recapitalization or other similar transaction, then the Conversion Ratio shall be adjusted to the extent appropriate. Following the Effective Time, the Outstanding Unvested Options that are assumed or replaced by Parent pursuant to this Section 1.6(b) shall vest according to such option’s original vesting schedule after taking into account the acceleration of the Outstanding Unvested Options.

(c) Payment. Following the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the consideration specified in Section 1.6(a) to be paid to each holder of an Outstanding Vested Option, through the Surviving Corporation’s payroll system in accordance with standard payroll practices (and in any event no later than the Surviving Corporation’s second payroll run following the Closing Date), without interest and subject to any required withholding for applicable Taxes.

1.7 Dissenting Shares.

 

7


(a) Effect on Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding any provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, shares of Capital Stock held by a holder who has properly asserted such holder’s dissenter’s rights under the DGCL (or under Chapter 13 of the CGCL (“Chapter 13”)), and as of the Closing has neither effectively withdrawn nor lost (through failure to perfect or otherwise) such holder’s right to payment of the “fair value” for such shares under the DGCL (the “Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into the applicable Merger Consideration, but shall be entitled to only such rights as are granted by the DGCL (or Chapter 13). Parent shall be entitled to retain any Merger Consideration not paid on account of such Dissenting Shares pending resolution of the claims of such holders, and the Effective Time Holders shall not be entitled to any portion of such retained Merger Consideration.

(b) Loss of Dissenting Share Status. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 1.7(a), if any holder of shares of Capital Stock who has asserted such holder’s right to payment of the “fair value” for such holder’s shares under the DGCL (or “fair market value” for such holder’s shares under Chapter 13) shall effectively withdraw or lose (through the failure to perfect or otherwise) such holder’s dissenters’ rights, then such holder’s shares of Capital Stock shall thereupon be deemed automatically to have been converted, as of the Effective Time, into the right to receive the applicable Merger Consideration, without interest thereon, promptly following the surrender of the certificate or certificates representing such shares of Capital Stock or upon the delivery of an appropriate affidavit, in each case, in accordance with Section 1.8.

(c) Notice of Dissenting Shares. The Company shall give Parent: (i) prompt notice of any demands for payment for shares of Capital Stock received by the Company, withdrawals of any demands, and any other instruments or notices served or otherwise delivered pursuant to the DGCL (or Chapter 13) and received by the Company; and (ii) the opportunity to direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to any such demands or other instruments or notices. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably delayed, withheld or conditioned), make any payment with respect to, settle, offer to settle or otherwise negotiate any such demands.

1.8 Exchange of Certificates.

(a) Payment Agent. On or prior to the Closing Date, Parent shall select a bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to the Company to act as payment agent in the Merger (the “Payment Agent”). On or prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit with the Payment Agent cash sufficient to pay the cash consideration payable pursuant to Section 1.5(a)(ii). Within five (5) Business Days following the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit with the Company’s payroll provider cash sufficient to pay the cash consideration payable pursuant to Section 1.6(a). The cash amount so deposited with the Payment Agent is referred to herein as the “Payment Fund.” The Payment Agent will be instructed to invest the funds included in the Payment Fund in the manner directed by Parent, but any risk of loss shall remain with Parent. Any interest or other income resulting from the investment of such funds shall be the property of, and will be paid to, Parent.

(b) Letter of Transmittal. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall mail to each Person who is a record holder of Capital Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time: (i) a letter of transmittal containing such provisions as Parent or the Payment Agent may specify

 

8


(including a provision confirming that delivery of Company Stock Certificates (as defined in Section 1.8(d)) shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to Company Stock Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of such Company Stock Certificates to the Payment Agent, and a provision whereby such holder agrees to be bound by the provisions of Sections 1.8, 9, 10.1 and the other applicable provisions of this Agreement), in each case as reasonably acceptable to the Company (a “Letter of Transmittal”); and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the exchange of Company Stock Certificates for the Merger Consideration, if any, payable with respect to such Capital Stock. Upon the surrender to the Payment Agent of a Company Stock Certificate (or an affidavit of lost stock certificate as described in Section 1.8(e)), together with a duly executed Letter of Transmittal and such other documents as Parent or the Payment Agent may reasonably request, the holder of such Company Stock Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor cash in an amount equal to the Merger Consideration, if any, which such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 1.5(a) at the time of such surrender, the Company Stock Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled, and the amount equal to the Merger Consideration shall be paid to such holder promptly. From and after the Effective Time, each Company Stock Certificate which prior to the Effective Time represented shares of Capital Stock shall be deemed to represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration, if any, payable with respect to such shares, and the holder of each such Company Stock Certificate shall cease to have any rights with respect to the shares of Capital Stock formerly represented thereby.

(c) Payments to Others. If payment of Merger Consideration in respect of shares of Capital Stock converted pursuant to Section 1.5 is to be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name a surrendered Company Stock Certificate is registered, it shall be a condition to such payment that the Company Stock Certificate so surrendered shall be properly endorsed or shall be otherwise in proper form for transfer and that the Person requesting such payment shall have paid any transfer and other similar Taxes required by reason of such payment in a name other than that of the registered holder of the Company Stock Certificate surrendered or shall have established to the satisfaction of Parent that such Tax either has been paid or is not payable.

(d) Stock Transfer Books. As of the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed and there shall not be any further registration of transfers of shares of Capital Stock thereafter on the records of the Company. If, after the Effective Time, certificates for shares of Outstanding Capital Stock (“Company Stock Certificates”) are presented to the Surviving Corporation, they shall be canceled and exchanged for the Merger Consideration, if any, payable with respect to such shares as provided for in Section 1.5. No interest shall accrue or be paid on any Merger Consideration payable upon the surrender of a Company Stock Certificate.

(e) Lost Certificates. In the event any Company Stock Certificate representing shares of Outstanding Capital Stock shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, Parent may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the payment of any Merger Consideration with respect to the shares of Capital Stock previously represented by such Company Stock Certificate, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed Company Stock Certificate to provide an appropriate affidavit and, if required by the Payment Agent, to deliver a bond (in such amount, in such form and with such surety as Parent may reasonably direct) as indemnity against

 

9


any claim that may be made against the Payment Agent, Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any affiliated party with respect to such Company Stock Certificate.

(f) Undistributed Payment Funds. Any portion of the Payment Fund that remains undistributed to Effective Time Holders as of the date that is 180 days after the Closing Date shall be delivered to Parent upon demand, and Effective Time Holders who have not theretofore surrendered their Company Stock Certificates in accordance with this Section 1.8 shall thereafter look only to Parent for satisfaction of their claims for the Merger Consideration payable with respect to the shares of Capital Stock previously represented by such Company Stock Certificates, and/or shares of Capital Stock subject to Vested Outstanding Options, in each case without any interest thereon.

(g) Escheat. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, neither Parent nor any other Person shall be liable to any Effective Time Holder or to any other Person for any amount paid to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property law, escheat law or similar applicable Legal Requirement. Any Merger Consideration or other amounts remaining unclaimed by Effective Time Holders three years after the Effective Time (or such earlier date immediately prior to such time as such amounts would otherwise escheat to or become property of any Governmental Entity) shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, become the property of Parent but thereafter remain subject to claim by the Securityholder otherwise entitled thereto (subject to applicable statute of limitations).

(h) Withholding. Each of the Payment Agent, Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration payable pursuant to this Agreement to any Securityholder or former Securityholder of the Company such amounts as Parent determines in good faith are required to be deducted or withheld therefrom or in connection therewith under the Code or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax law or under any other applicable Legal Requirement. To the extent such amounts are so deducted or withheld and paid over to the appropriate Taxing Authority, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as having been paid to the Person to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid.

1.9 Further Action. If, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is reasonably determined by Parent to be necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement or to vest the Surviving Corporation or Parent with full right, title and possession of and to all rights and property of Merger Sub and the Company, the officers and directors of the Surviving Corporation and Parent shall be fully authorized (in the name of Merger Sub, in the name of the Company and otherwise) to take such action.

(iii) No shares of Capital Stock are held as treasury stock or are owned by the Company. The Company has never declared or paid any dividends on any shares of Capital Stock. Since the filing of the Restated Certificate with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on August 2, 2013 to the Agreement Date, no shares of Capital Stock have been issued (other than pursuant to exercises of Options issued to employees of any Acquired Company under the Stock Plans) and no adjustment has been made, pursuant to the provisions of the Restated Certificate or otherwise, to the conversion price of any share of Preferred Stock. No consideration is or was required to be paid in respect of any share of Preferred Stock upon conversion of such shares into shares of Common Stock in accordance with the Restated Certificate.

(iv) Section 2.2(a)(iv) of the Disclosure Schedule sets forth, as of the Agreement Date, an accurate and complete list of the holders of all the issued and outstanding shares of Capital Stock, the addresses of each such holder (based on the books and records of the Company) and the class, series and number of shares of Capital Stock owned of record by each such holder.

Each grant of an Option was duly authorized no later than the date on which the grant of such Option was by its terms to be effective (the “Grant Date”) by all necessary corporate action, including, as applicable, approval by the board of directors of the Company (or a duly constituted and authorized committee thereof) and any required stockholder approval by the necessary number of votes or written consents, and the award agreement governing such grant (if any) was duly executed and delivered by each party thereto, each such grant was made in compliance with the terms of the applicable compensation plan or arrangement of the Company and all other applicable Legal Requirements, the per share exercise price of each Option was equal to or greater than the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on the applicable Grant Date and, except as set forth in Section 2.2(b) of the Disclosure Schedule, each such grant was properly accounted for in accordance with GAAP in the financial statements (including the related notes) of the Company and each Option qualifies for the Tax treatment afforded to such Option in the Tax Returns of the Company.

No Acquired Company has received any notice of a default, alleged failure to perform or any offset or counterclaim with respect to any item of Indebtedness that has not been fully remedied and withdrawn.

The obligations of Parent, the Surviving Corporation and its successors under this Section 5.6 shall not be terminated, amended or otherwise modified in such a manner as to adversely affect any Company Indemnified Party (or his or her heirs, personal Representatives, successors or assigns) without the prior written consent of such Company Indemnified Party (or his or her heirs, personal Representatives, successors or assigns, as applicable).

Subject to Section 9.1(c), the indemnification obligations of the Effective Time Holders set forth in Section 9.2(a) shall survive the Effective Time until the date that is 18 months subsequent to the Closing Date (the “Survival Date”) (at which time the representations and warranties made by the Company (other than the Fundamental Representations) shall terminate and expire); provided, however, that if, at any time on or prior to the Survival Date, any Indemnitee delivers to the Securityholders’ Agent a written notice asserting a claim for recovery under Section 9.2, then the claim asserted in such notice shall survive the Survival Date until such time as such claim is fully and finally resolved; provided further that Fundamental Representations shall survive the Effective Time until expiration of the applicable statute of limitations covering the matter addressed by a particular Fundamental Representation (but in no event longer than six years subsequent to the Closing Date).

(b) Parent Representations. All representations, warranties and covenants (except for those covenants requiring performance after the Effective Time) made by Parent and Merger Sub shall terminate and expire as of the Effective Time, and any liability of Parent or Merger Sub with respect to such representations, warranties and covenants (except for those covenants requiring performance after the Effective Time) shall thereupon cease.

(c) Fraud. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 9.1(a) or Section 9.1(b), the limitations set forth in Sections 9.1(a) and 9.1(b) shall not apply with respect to any representation or warranty herein in the event of any Fraudulent breach of such representation or warranty committed by or on behalf of the Company, Parent, or Merger Sub, a claim for which may be brought until expiration of the applicable statute of limitations.

(d) Representations. (i) The Company and the Securityholders’ Agent (on behalf of the Effective Time Holders) hereby agree that the Indemnitees’ rights to indemnification, compensation and reimbursement contained in this Section 9 relating to the representations, warranties, covenants and obligations of the Company or the Securityholders’ Agent are part of the basis of the bargain contemplated by this Agreement; and such representations, warranties, covenants and obligations, and the rights and remedies that may be exercised by the Indemnitees with respect thereto, shall not be waived, limited or otherwise affected by or as a result of (and the Indemnitees shall be deemed to have relied upon such representations, warranties, covenants or obligations notwithstanding) any knowledge on the part of any of the Indemnitees or any of their Representatives, regardless of whether obtained through any investigation by any Indemnitee or any Representative of any Indemnitee or through

 

65


disclosure by the Company or any other Person, and regardless of whether such knowledge was obtained before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement and (ii) Parent hereby acknowledges that other than the representations and warranties made in Section 2 (as qualified by the Disclosure Schedule) and the Company Closing Certificate, none of the Company, its Affiliates, or any of their Representatives make or have made, and Parent is not relying and has not relied on, any representation or warranty, express or implied, at law or in equity, with respect to the Company or its Subsidiaries or the subject matter of this Agreement.

(e) Disclosure Schedule. For purposes of this Agreement, the statements or other items of information set forth in the Disclosure Schedule, when read together with the statements in Section 2, shall be deemed to be the representations and warranties made by the Company in this Agreement.

9.2 Indemnification.

(a) Indemnification. From and after the Effective Time (but subject to Section 9.1), each Effective Time Holder (severally and jointly) shall hold harmless and indemnify each of the Indemnitees from and against, and shall compensate and reimburse each of the Indemnitees for, such Effective Time Holder’s Pro Rata Share of any Damages which are suffered or incurred by any of the Indemnitees (regardless of whether or not such Damages relate to any third party claim) and which arise from or as a result of, or are connected with the following (the “Indemnifiable Matters”):

(i) any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company in this Agreement as of the date of this Agreement (other than any representation or warranty that by its terms speaks as of a particular date or dates, which shall instead be tested as of such date or dates) (without giving effect to any update or modification to the Disclosure Schedule made or purported to have been made on or after the date of this Agreement);

(ii) any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company in this Agreement as if such representation or warranty was made on and as of the Closing (other than any representation or warranty that by its terms speaks as of a particular date or dates, which shall instead be tested as of such date or dates) (without giving effect to any update or modification to the Disclosure Schedule made or purported to have been made on or after the date of this Agreement);

(iii) any breach of any covenant or obligation of the Company in this Agreement;

(iv) regardless of the disclosure of any matter set forth in the Disclosure Schedule, the exercise by any stockholder of the Company of such stockholder’s dissenters’ rights under the DGCL or CGCL (it being understood that if a final determination of the fair value or fair market value of any Dissenting Shares is made by a court of competent jurisdiction, or a settlement is reached as to such fair value or fair market value, in connection with any such exercise of dissenters’ rights, then the only portion of such fair value or fair market value to be included in calculation of the

 

66


Damages incurred as a result of such exercise is the amount, if any, by which such fair value or fair market value exceeds what otherwise would have been payable by Parent with respect to such Dissenting Shares in accordance with Section 1.5); and

(v) the Company Transaction Expenses to the extent not paid on prior to the Effective Time or otherwise taken into account in the calculation of the Merger Consideration.

(b) Damage to Parent. The parties acknowledge and agree that, if the Surviving Corporation suffers, incurs or otherwise becomes subject to any Damages as a result of or in connection with any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation, then (without limiting any of the rights of the Surviving Corporation as an Indemnitee) Parent shall also be deemed, by virtue of its ownership of the stock of the Surviving Corporation, to have incurred Damages as a result of and in connection with such inaccuracy or breach.

(c) Multiple Claims. Notwithstanding the fact that an Indemnitee may have the right to assert claims for indemnification under or in respect of more than one provision, representation, warranty or covenant of this Agreement in respect of any fact, event, condition or circumstance, no Indemnitee shall be entitled to double recovery (or recovery more than once) for the amount of any Damages suffered by such Indemnitee to the extent such Indemnitee has otherwise been already compensated for such Damages.

9.3 Limitations.

(a) Threshold; Deductible. Subject to Section 9.3(b), the Effective Time Holders shall not be required to make any indemnification payment pursuant to Section 9.2(a)(i), Section 9.2(a)(ii) or Section 9.2(a)(iii) unless and until (i) each individual claim or series of related claims exceeds $50,000 (the “De Minimis Threshold”) and (ii) any one or more of the Indemnitees have suffered or incurred Damages exceeding $1,000,000 (the “Deductible”) in the aggregate. If the total amount of such Damages exceeds the Deductible, then the Indemnitees shall be entitled to be indemnified against and compensated and reimbursed for the amount of Damages exceeding the Deductible.

(b) Applicability of De Minimis Threshold; Deductible. The limitation set forth in Section 9.3(a) shall not apply (and shall not limit the indemnification or other obligations of any Effective Time Holder) (i) as to any representation or warranty herein made by the Company, in the event of Fraudulent breach of such representation or warranty by or on behalf of the Company or (ii) in the case of a breach of a Fundamental Representation.

(c) Recourse to Escrow Amount. The indemnification rights of the Indemnitees contained in this Section 9 shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedy of the Indemnitees for any and all Damages arising out of or related to this Agreement and any certificate required to be executed and delivered in connection herewith or otherwise executed and delivered at the Closing (but specifically excluding any Release, Noncompetition Agreement or employment agreement). This means (i) that the survival periods and liability limits set forth in this Section 9 shall control notwithstanding any statutory or common law provisions or

 

67


principles to the contrary, (ii) all applicable statutes of limitations or other claims periods with respect to claims for Damages shall be shortened to the applicable claims periods and survival periods set forth herein, and (iii) the Indemnitees irrevocably waive any and all rights they may have to make claims against any Effective Time Holder under statutory and common law as a result of any Damages and any and all other damages incurred by the Indemnitees with respect to this Agreement whether or not in excess of the maximum amounts permitted to be recovered pursuant to this Section 9. Subject to Section 9.3(d), recourse by the Indemnitees to deduction from the Escrow Amount shall be the Indemnitees’ sole and exclusive remedy under this Agreement for monetary Damages resulting from the matters referred to in Section 9.2(a). All claims for indemnification made by the Indemnitees pursuant to this Section 9 shall be brought first against the Escrow Fund until the Escrow Fund is exhausted before any claim for indemnification may be brought against an Effective Time Holder directly; provided that in the case of a breach of a Fundamental Representation, if such claim results in the exhaustion of the Escrow Fund, that will not reduce the liability of the Effective Time Holders for breaches of representations and warranties other than Fundamental Representations (such that the aggregate liability of the Effective Time Holders would be the same as if the chronological order of such claims were reversed).

(d) Applicability of Liability Cap. The limitation set forth in Section 9.3(c) shall not apply (and shall not limit the indemnification or other obligations of any Effective Time Holder) in the event of Fraudulent breach of a representation or warranty herein by or on behalf of the Company or to breaches of Fundamental Representations (the “Fundamental Matters”). Subject to Section 10.3, the total amount of indemnification payments that each Effective Time Holder can be required to make to the Indemnitees with respect to such Fundamental Matters and all other Indemnifiable Matters (inclusive of the amount that was withheld as part of the Escrow Amount and the Expense Amount from such Effective Time Holder’s Merger Consideration) shall be limited to the aggregate Merger Consideration such Effective Time Holder was entitled to receive pursuant to Sections 1.5 and 1.6(a).

(e) Effect of Indemnification Payments. All indemnification payments made pursuant to this Section 9 shall be treated by all parties as adjustments to the aggregate consideration paid in the Merger.

(f) Calculation of Indemnifiable Damages. Any claim for indemnification shall be calculated (i) net of all insurance proceeds or other indemnification or contribution payments from any third party, if any, actually received by Indemnitee less any increase in premiums or other recovery costs to such Person as a result of such claim for insurance proceeds; (ii) as to actual losses and out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Indemnitee, without regard to reductions or diminutions in value, lost opportunities or other speculative damages; and (iii) without regard to any punitive, special, incidental or consequential damages unless any such punitive, special, incidental or consequential damages are payable to a third party. If any Indemnitee actually receives any insurance or other third party payment in connection with any claim for Damages for which it has already been indemnified pursuant to this Section 9, it shall pay to the Parent such recovery for further distribution to the Effective Time Holders in accordance with the terms hereof within thirty (30) days after such payment is actually received.

 

68


(g) No Double-Recovery. If and solely to the extent that an amount of Damages in connection with an indemnifiable matter was already taken into account in connection with calculation of the Merger Consideration, the Adjusted Transaction Value, the Cash Amount, the Indebtedness or the Company Transaction Fees (pursuant to the definitions thereof), the same amount of such Damages may not be recovered under this Section 9.

(h) Equal Treatment. Any claim for indemnification under Section 9.2, and any offer to compromise or settle such claim, must be made on a pro rata basis to all Effective Time Holders (based on their respective Pro Rata Shares).

(i) No Inadvertent Fraud. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall a matter that arises between the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date (other than as a result of Fraud by the Company under this Agreement) and thereby results in a failure of a representation or warranty of the Company contained in this Agreement or in the certification to be made by the Company pursuant to Section 6.6(e), be deemed to be Fraud with respect to such representation or warranty solely on the grounds that the Company may not legally effectively update the Disclosure Schedule.

(j) Personal Liability. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in no event will any Effective Time Holder be liable for any other Effective Time Holder’s breach of such other Effective Time Holder’s representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in any ancillary agreement hereto to which such other Effective Time Holder is a party.

(k) Tax Attributes. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company is not making and shall not be construed to have made, and the Effective Time Holders shall not have any liability or indemnification obligation with respect to, any representation or warranty as to the amount or availability of any net operating losses, Tax credits, Tax basis or other Tax attribute. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Effective Time Holders shall not have any liability or indemnification obligation for any Taxes of the Company (i) resulting from any election made under Section 338 of the Code with respect to the Merger, (ii) with respect to any taxable period (or portion thereof) beginning after the Closing Date, or (iii) resulting from any action taken by the Company after the Closing on the Closing Date.

9.4 No Contribution. Each Effective Time Holder waives, and acknowledges and agrees that such Effective Time Holder shall not have and shall not exercise or assert (or attempt to exercise or assert), any right of contribution, right of indemnity or advancement of expenses or other right or remedy against the Surviving Corporation or any Acquired Company in connection with any indemnification obligation to which such Effective Time Holder may become subject under or in connection with this Agreement or any other agreement or document delivered to Parent in connection with this Agreement in its capacity as an Effective Time Holder. Effective as of the Closing, the Securityholders’ Agent, on behalf of itself and each Effective Time Holder, expressly waives and releases any and all rights of subrogation against Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any Acquired Company.

 

69


9.5 Defense of Third Party Claims. In the event of the assertion or commencement by any Person of any claim or Legal Proceeding (whether against the Surviving Corporation, any Acquired Company, Parent or any other Person) with respect to which any Effective Time Holder may become obligated to hold harmless, indemnify, compensate or reimburse any Indemnitee pursuant to Section 9, Parent shall have the right, at its election, to control and proceed with the defense of such claim or Legal Proceeding with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Securityholders’ Agent (and for this purpose, it is acknowledged and agreed that Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP is satisfactory to the Securityholders’ Agent), and the Securityholders’ Agent shall be entitled, at its expense (on behalf of the Effective Time Holders), to participate in, but not to determine or conduct, the defense of such third party claim and Parent shall keep the Securityholders’ Agent reasonably apprised of material developments in such Legal Proceeding, and promptly provide to the Securityholders’ Agent copies of all pleadings, notices and communications with respect to such claim or Legal Proceeding to the extent that receipt of such documents does not waive any privilege. If Parent so proceeds with the defense of any such claim or Legal Proceeding:

(a) subject to the other provisions of Section 9 (including the exhaustion of any available Deductible), all reasonable defense costs relating to the defense of such claim or Legal Proceeding shall be borne and paid exclusively by the Effective Time Holders (regardless of whether the underlying claim or Legal Proceeding is indemnifiable hereunder); provided Parent’s sole and exclusive remedy for such defense costs shall be the then available Escrow Fund and any recoveries of such defense costs therefrom shall count against the liability caps in Section 9.3(c)-(d);

(b) each Effective Time Holder shall make available to Parent any documents and materials in such Effective Time Holder’s possession or control that may be necessary to the defense of such claim or Legal Proceeding; and

(c) Parent shall have the right to settle, adjust or compromise such claim or Legal Proceeding; provided, however, that if Parent settles, adjusts or compromises any such claim or Legal Proceeding without the consent of the Securityholders’ Agent, such settlement, adjustment or compromise shall not be conclusive evidence of the existence or amount of Damages incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with such claim or Legal Proceeding (it being understood that if Parent requests that the Securityholders’ Agent consent to a settlement, adjustment or compromise, the Securityholders’ Agent shall not unreasonably withhold or delay such consent provided, that the Securityholders’ Agent may withhold consent to any requested settlement, adjustment or compromise if the Securityholders’ Agent believes in good faith that there is not any underlying basis for indemnification under this Section 9 with respect to such settlement, adjustment or compromise).

If Parent does not elect to proceed with the defense of any such claim or Legal Proceeding, the Securityholders’ Agent may proceed with the defense of such claim or Legal Proceeding with counsel reasonably satisfactory to Parent; provided, however, that the Securityholders’ Agent may not settle, adjust or compromise any such claim or Legal Proceeding without the prior written consent of Parent (which consent may not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless (i) such judgment, settlement or compromise includes an unconditional release from all liability with respect to the claim in favor of the Indemnitees or (ii) the sole relief provided in connection

 

70


with such judgment, settlement or compromise is monetary damages that are paid in full by the Effective Time Holders (including from the Escrow Fund) or any other relief that is enforceable only against The Effective Time Holders. Parent shall give the Securityholders’ Agent prompt notice of the commencement of any such Legal Proceeding against Parent, Merger Sub or the Company; provided, however, that any failure on the part of Parent to so notify the Securityholders’ Agent shall not limit any of the obligations of the Effective Time Holders under Section 9 (except to the extent such failure materially prejudices the defense of such Legal Proceeding).

If Parent proceeds with the defense of any such claim or Legal Proceeding as contemplated under this Section 9.5, upon the request of Parent and subject to the other provisions of this Section 9, the Securityholders’ Agent hereby agrees to instruct the Escrow Agent to pay to Parent from the Escrow Amount an amount equal to the reasonable documented defense costs of Parent relating to the defense of such claim or Legal Proceeding as such expenses are incurred by Parent (regardless of the provisions of Section 9.6 but subject to the limitations of Section 9.5(a)) on a monthly basis and subject to a reasonable advance review period for such documentation.

9.6 Indemnification Claim Procedure. If any Indemnitee has or reasonably believes it has incurred or suffered, or reasonably believes that it is reasonably likely to incur or suffer, Damages for which it is or will be entitled to be held harmless, indemnified, compensated or reimbursed under Section 9 or for which it is or will be entitled to a monetary remedy (such as in the case of a claim based on Fraudulent breach of a representation or warranty herein by or on behalf of the Company), such Indemnitee may deliver a notice of claim (a “Notice of Claim”) to the Securityholders’ Agent. Each Notice of Claim shall state the basis for such claim and each Indemnitee shall make available to the Securityholders’ Agent any documents and materials in such Indemnitee’s possession or control supporting the claims set forth in the Notice of Claim. In the event the Securityholders’ Agent does not notify the Indemnitee within thirty (30) days following its receipt of a Notice of Claim that the Securityholders’ Agent (on behalf of the Effective Time Holders) disputes the liability of the Effective Time Holders to the Indemnitee under this Section 9 or the amount thereof, the claim specified in such Notice of Claim shall be conclusively deemed a liability of the Effective Time Holders under this Section 9, and Parent may claim from the Escrow Amount or, to the extent the remaining funds in the Escrow Amount are insufficient to cover the amount of such claim and such claim is not subject to the limitations set forth in Section 9.3(c) in accordance with Section 9.3(d), the Effective Time Holders shall pay the amount of such liability to the Indemnitee on demand or, in the case of any notice in which the amount of the claim (or any portion of the claim) is estimated, on such later date when the amount of such claim (or such portion of such claim) becomes finally determined. In the event the Securityholders’ Agent has timely disputed the liability of the Effective Time Holders (a “Claim Objection”) with respect to such claim as provided above, as promptly as possible, such Indemnitee and the Securityholders’ Agent shall establish the merits and amount of such claim (by mutual agreement, litigation, arbitration or otherwise) and if an agreement is reached, a memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by both parties and shall be furnished to the Escrow Agent. If such Indemnitee and the Securityholders’ Agent do not reach an agreement as to the merits and amount of such claim within thirty (30) days immediately after the date such Claim Objection is delivered to Parent, either Parent or the Company (or the Securityholders’ Agent after the Effective Time) may demand arbitration of the matter unless the amount of the damage or loss is at issue in pending litigation or arbitration with

 

71


a third party, in which event arbitration shall not be commenced until such amount is ascertained or both parties agree to arbitration. Any arbitration requested pursuant to this Section 9.6 shall be settled by arbitration conducted by three (3) arbitrators. Parent and the Company (or the Securityholders’ Agent after the Effective Time) shall each select one (1) arbitrator, and the two (2) arbitrators so selected shall select a third arbitrator. The arbitrator shall, within ten (10) Business Days after the last day of any hearings on any motion, issue a definitive ruling on such motion. The arbitrator shall also, within twenty (20) Business Days from the last day of any hearings regarding the imposition of sanctions or the issuance of any awards, issue a definitive ruling on the imposition of any such sanctions or the issuance of any such award in such arbitration. The arbitrator shall also establish procedures designed to reduce the cost and time for discovery, while allowing the parties a reasonable opportunity, adequate in the sole judgment of the arbitrator, to discover relevant information from the opposing parties about the subject matter of the dispute. The arbitrator shall rule upon motions to compel or limit discovery and shall have the authority to impose sanctions, including attorneys’ fees and costs, to the same extent as a court of competent law or equity, should the arbitrator determine that discovery was sought without substantial justification or that discovery was refused or objected to without substantial justification. The decision of the arbitrator, or a majority of the three (3) arbitrators, as applicable, shall be binding and conclusive upon the parties to this Agreement, and the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to act in accordance with such decision and make or withhold payments out of the Escrow Fund in accordance therewith. Such decision shall be written and shall be supported by written findings of fact and conclusions, which shall set forth the award, judgment, decree or order awarded by the arbitrator. Judgment upon any award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. Any such arbitration shall be held in Wilmington, Delaware, under the rules then in effect of the American Arbitration Association.

9.7 Exercise of Remedies Other Than by Parent. No Indemnitee (other than Parent or any successor thereto or assign thereof) shall be permitted to assert any indemnification claim or exercise any other remedy under this Agreement unless Parent (or any successor thereto or assign thereof) shall have consented to the assertion of such indemnification claim or the exercise of such other remedy.

 

10. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

10.1 Securityholders’ Agent.

(a) Appointment. By virtue of the adoption and approval of this Agreement and/or the cancellation of Outstanding Vested Options in exchange for Merger Consideration pursuant to this Agreement, the Effective Time Holders irrevocably nominate, constitute and appoint Fortis Advisors LLC as the exclusive agent and true and lawful attorney in fact of the stockholders (the “Securityholders’ Agent”), with full power of substitution, to act in the name, place and stead of the Effective Time Holders for purposes of executing any documents and taking any actions that the Securityholders’ Agent may, in the Securityholders’ Agent’s sole discretion, determine to be necessary, desirable or appropriate in connection with any claim for indemnification, compensation or reimbursement under Section 9. Fortis Advisors LLC hereby accepts its appointment as Securityholders’ Agent.

 

72


(b) Authority. The Effective Time Holders grant to the Securityholders’ Agent full authority to execute, deliver, acknowledge, certify and file on behalf of such Effective Time Holders (in the name of any or all of the Effective Time Holders or otherwise) any and all documents that the Securityholders’ Agent may, in its sole discretion, determine to be necessary, desirable or appropriate, in such forms and containing such provisions as the Securityholders’ Agent may, in its sole discretion, determine to be appropriate, in performing its duties as contemplated by Section 10.1(a). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Securityholders’ Agent shall have no obligation to act on behalf of the Effective Time Holders, except as expressly provided herein and in the Escrow Agreement, and for purposes of clarity, there are no obligations of the Securityholders’ Agent in any ancillary agreement, schedule, exhibit or the Disclosure Schedule. Each Effective Time Holder (i) agrees that all actions taken by the Securityholders’ Agent under this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement shall be binding upon such Effective Time Holder and such Effective Time Holder’s successors as if expressly confirmed and ratified in writing by such Effective Time Holder, and (ii) waives any and all defenses which may be available to contest, negate or disaffirm the action of the Securityholders’ Agent taken in good faith under this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or in any other agreement executed in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby: (i) each Indemnitee shall be entitled to deal exclusively with the Securityholders’ Agent on all matters relating to any claim for indemnification, compensation or reimbursement under Section 9; and (ii) each Indemnitee shall be entitled to rely conclusively (without further evidence of any kind whatsoever) on any document executed or purported to be executed on behalf of any Effective Time Holder by the Securityholders’ Agent, and on any other action taken or purported to be taken on behalf of any Effective Time Holder by the Securityholders’ Agent, as fully binding upon such Effective Time Holder.

(c) Power of Attorney. The Effective Time Holders recognize and intend that the power of attorney granted in Section 10.1(a) and the powers, immunities and rights to indemnification granted to the Securityholders’ Agent Group hereunder: (i) are coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable; (ii) may be delegated by the Securityholders’ Agent; (iii) shall survive the death, incapacity, dissolution, liquidation or winding up of each of the Effective Time Holders and shall be binding on any successor thereto; and (iv) shall survive the delivery of any assignment by any Effective Time Holder of the whole or any fraction of his, her or its interests in the Escrow Fund.

(d) Replacement. If the Securityholders’ Agent shall die, resign, become disabled or otherwise be unable to fulfill its responsibilities hereunder, the Effective Time Holders shall (by consent of those Persons entitled to at least a majority of the Merger Consideration), within 10 days after such death, resignation, disability or inability, appoint a successor to the Securityholders’ Agent (who shall be reasonably satisfactory to Parent) and immediately thereafter notify Parent of the identity of such successor. Any such successor shall succeed the Securityholders’ Agent as Securityholders’ Agent hereunder. If for any reason there is no Securityholders’ Agent at any time, all references herein to the Securityholders’ Agent shall be deemed to refer to the Effective Time Holders.

(e) Expense Fund. The Securityholders’ Agent (for itself and its Representatives and Affiliates) shall be entitled to full reimbursement from the Effective Time

 

73


Holders for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances (including fees and disbursements of its counsel, experts and other agents and consultants) incurred by the Securityholders’ Agent in such capacity (or any of its Representatives or Affiliates in connection therewith), and to full indemnification against any loss, liability or expenses, claim, damage, fee, cost, fine, judgment, amount paid in settlement or expenses (including fees, disbursements and costs of counsel and other skilled professionals and in connection with seeking recovery from insurers) arising out of actions taken or omitted to be taken in its capacity as Securityholders’ Agent (except for those arising out of the Securityholders’ Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct), including the costs and expenses of investigation and defense of claims (the “Securityholders’ Agent Expenses”), from the Effective Time Holders, including from funds paid to the Securityholders’ Agent under this Agreement and/or otherwise received by it in its capacity as Securityholders’ Agent, or funds to be distributed to the Effective Time Holders under this Agreement at its direction, pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement (including under the Escrow Agreement). In furtherance of the foregoing, each Effective Time Holder hereby authorizes the Payment Agent to withhold the Expense Amount from the amounts otherwise payable by the Payment Agent to the Effective Time Holders pursuant to Sections 1.5 and 1.6(a), with the Payment Agent to withhold from the Merger Consideration otherwise payable to each Effective Time Holder and distribute to the Securityholders’ Agent an amount equal to the Expense Amount, and the Payment Agent shall promptly, and in any event within three Business Days following the Effective Time, pay the Expense Amount to the Securityholders’ Agent in immediately available funds. The Expense Amount shall be retained and used by the Securityholders’ Agent in connection with the performance of its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, and any unused amounts remaining from the Expense Amount shall be paid by the Securityholders’ Agent to the Payment Agent for distribution to the Effective Time Holders, in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares, at such time as the Securityholders’ Agent determines in its sole discretion to be appropriate. In addition, following exhaustion of the Expense Amount, each Effective Time Holder hereby authorizes the Securityholders’ Agent to instruct the Escrow Agent to deduct from any amounts to be released from the Escrow Fund and distributed to such Effective Time Holder in accordance with the Escrow Agreement an amount equal to such Effective Time Holder’s Pro Rata Share of any amounts to which the Securityholders’ Agent is entitled pursuant to this Section 10.1(e). If not recovered from the Expense Amount or the Escrow Fund, any Securityholders’ Agent Expenses shall be recovered directly from the Effective Time Holders according to their Pro Rata Shares. The Effective Time Holders shall not receive interest or other earnings on the Expense Amount and the Effective Time Holders irrevocably transfer and assign to the Securityholders’ Agent any ownership right that they may have in any interest that may accrue on the Expense Amount. The Securityholders’ Agent will hold the Expense Amount separate from its corporate funds and will not voluntarily make it available to its creditors in the event of bankruptcy. The Effective Time Holders acknowledge that the Securityholders’ Agent is not providing any investment supervision, recommendations or advice. The Securityholders’ Agent shall have no responsibility or liability for any loss of principal of the Expense Amount other than as a result of its gross negligence or willful misconduct. For tax purposes, the Expense Amount shall be treated as having been received and voluntarily set aside by the Effective Time Holders at the Effective Time. The parties agree that the Securityholders’ Agent is not acting as a withholding agent or in any similar capacity in connection with the Expense Amount and has no tax reporting or income distribution obligations hereunder. The Effective Time Holders

 

74


acknowledge that the Securityholders’ Agent shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the exercise or performance of any of its powers, rights, duties or privileges or administration of its duties.

(f) Access and Information. The Securityholders’ Agent shall have reasonable access to information about the Surviving Corporation and the reasonable assistance of the Acquired Companies’ former officers and employees for purposes of performing its duties and exercising its rights hereunder; provided, that, the Securityholders’ Agent shall treat confidentially and not use or disclose the terms of this Agreement or any nonpublic information from or about the Surviving Corporation to anyone (except to the Effective Time Holders or the Securityholders’ Agent’s employees, attorneys, accountants, financial advisors or authorized Representatives on a need to know basis, in each case who agree to treat such information confidentially); provided, however, that neither Parent nor the Surviving Corporation shall be obligated to provide such access or information if it determines, in its reasonable judgment, that doing so would jeopardize the protection of attorney-client privilege. The Securityholders’ Agent shall enter into a separate customary confidentiality agreement prior to being provided access to such information if reasonably requested by Parent. The Securityholders’ Agent shall be entitled to: (i) rely upon the Merger Consideration Certificate, (ii) rely upon any signature believed by it to be genuine, and (iii) reasonably assume that a signatory has proper authorization to sign on behalf of the applicable Effective Time Holder or other party.

(g) Advisory Group. Certain Effective Time Holders (the “Advisory Group”) have concurrently herewith entered into a letter agreement with the Securityholders’ Agent regarding direction to be provided by the Advisory Group to the Securityholders’ Agent. Neither the Securityholders’ Agent (together with its members, managers, directors, officers, contractors, agents and employees) nor any member of the Advisory Group (collectively, the “Securityholders’ Agent Group”) shall incur any liability to the Effective Time Holders for any liability incurred by the Securityholders’ Agent while acting in good faith and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of its duties (it being understood that any act done or omitted pursuant to the advice of counsel shall be conclusive evidence of such good faith), even if such act or omission constitutes negligence on the part of the Securityholders’ Agent. The Effective Time Holders shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Securityholders’ Agent Group from and against any and all Securityholders’ Agent Expenses incurred without gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Securityholders’ Agent and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of its duties hereunder. This immunities and rights to indemnification shall survive the resignation or removal of the Securityholders’ Agent or any member of the Advisory Group and the Closing and/or the termination of this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement.

10.2 Further Assurances. Each party hereto shall execute and cause to be delivered to each other party hereto such instruments and other documents, and shall take such other actions, as such other party may reasonably request (prior to, at or after the Closing) for the purpose of carrying out or evidencing any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

10.3 No Waiver Relating to Claims for Fraud. The liability of any Effective Time Holder under Section 9 will be in addition to, and not exclusive of, any other liability that such Effective Time Holder may have at law or in equity based on such Effective Time Holder’s

 

75


Fraud.

principles of the state of Delaware, as to all matters, including matters of validity, construction, effect, enforceability, performance and remedies.

Subject to the dispute resolution provisions of Section 9.6, any action, suit or other legal proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of any provision of this Agreement (including an action, suit or other legal proceeding based upon Fraud) may be brought or otherwise commenced exclusively in any state or federal court located in the State of Delaware. Each party to this Agreement: (i) expressly and irrevocably consents and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of each state and federal court located in the State of Delaware (and each appellate court located in the State of Delaware) in connection with any such action, suit or legal proceeding; (ii) agrees that each state and federal court located in the State of Delaware shall be deemed to be a convenient forum; and (iii) agrees not to assert (by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise), in any such action, suit or legal proceeding commenced in any state or federal court located in the State of Delaware, any claim that such party is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of such court, that such action, suit or legal proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of such action, suit or legal proceeding is improper or that this Agreement or the subject matter of this Agreement may not be enforced in or by such court.

In the event that any provision of this Agreement, or the application of any such provision to any Person or set of circumstances, shall be determined to be invalid, unlawful, void or unenforceable to any extent, the remainder of this Agreement, and the application of such provision to Persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is determined to be invalid, unlawful, void or unenforceable, shall not be impaired or otherwise affected and shall continue to be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

10.16 Parties in Interest. Except for the provisions of Section 5.6 and Section 9, none of the provisions of this Agreement is intended to provide any rights or remedies to any employee, creditor or other Person other than Parent, Merger Sub, the Company and their respective successors and assigns (if any).

10.17 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other agreements referred to herein set forth the entire understanding of the parties hereto relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings among or between any of the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof; provided, however, that the Confidentiality Agreement shall not be superseded by this Agreement and shall remain in effect in accordance with its terms until the earlier of (a) the Effective Time, or (b) the date on which such Confidentiality Agreement is terminated or expires in accordance with its terms.

10.18 Disclosure Schedule. The Disclosure Schedule shall be arranged in separate parts corresponding to the numbered and lettered sections and subsections contained in this Agreement, and the information disclosed in any numbered or lettered part shall be deemed to relate to and to qualify only the particular representation or warranty set forth in the corresponding numbered or lettered section or subsection of this Agreement, except to the extent that (a) such information is cross-referenced in another part of the Disclosure Schedule or (b) it is

 

79


readily apparent from the wording of such exception or disclosure that such information qualifies another representation and warranty of the Company in this Agreement.

10.19 Construction.

(a) Gender; Etc. For purposes of this Agreement, whenever the context requires: the singular number shall include the plural, and vice versa; the masculine gender shall include the feminine and neuter genders; the feminine gender shall include the masculine and neuter genders; and the neuter gender shall include the masculine and feminine genders.

(c) Including. As used in this Agreement, the words “include” and “including,” and variations thereof, shall not be deemed to be terms of limitation, but rather shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.”

(d) References. Except as otherwise indicated, all references in this Agreement to “Sections,” “Schedules” and “Exhibits” are intended to refer to Sections of this Agreement and Schedules and Exhibits to this Agreement.

10.20 Consent to Representation; Conflict of Interest. If the Securityholders’ Agent so desires, acting on behalf of the Effective Time Holders and without the need for any consent or waiver by the Company, Parent or Merger Sub, Fenwick & West LLP (“Fenwick”) shall be permitted to represent the Effective Time Holders after the Closing in connection with any matter, including without limitation, anything related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, any other agreements referenced herein or any disagreement or dispute relating thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, after the Closing, Fenwick shall be permitted to represent the Effective Time Holders, any of their agents and Affiliates, or any one or more of them, in connection with any negotiation, transaction or dispute (including any litigation, arbitration or other adversary proceeding) with Parent, the Company or any of their agents or Affiliates under or relating to this Agreement, any transaction contemplated by this Agreement, and any related matter, such as claims or disputes arising under other agreements entered into in connection with this Agreement, including with respect to any indemnification claims. Parent, Merger Sub and the Company further agree that, as to all communications among Fenwick and the Securityholders’ Agent and the Effective Time Holders and their respective Affiliates (individually and collectively, the “Seller Group”) in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the attorney-client privilege and the exception of client confidence belongs solely to the Seller Group and may be controlled only by the Seller Group and shall not pass to or be claimed by Parent, Merger Sub and the Company, because the interests of Parent and its Affiliates were directly adverse to the Company, the Effective Time Holders and the Securityholders’ Agent at the time such communications were made. This right to the attorney-client privilege shall exist even if such communications may exist on the Company’s computer system or in documents in the Company’s possession. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a dispute arises between Parent, Merger Sub and the Company, and a Person other than a party to this Agreement after the Closing, the Company may assert the

 

80


attorney-client privilege to prevent disclosure to such third-party of confidential communications by Fenwick to the Company; provided, however, that the Company may not waive such privilege without the prior written consent of the Securityholders’ Agent.
