(d)    The Representative shall have 30 days from its receipt of the Closing Working Capital Statement (the “Objection Period”) to review the Closing Working Capital Statement. Parent shall grant the Representative access at reasonable times and places and upon reasonable advance notice to all books, records and employees of the Surviving Corporation as reasonably requested by the Representative in connection with its review of the Closing Working Capital Statement. Upon the expiration of the Objection Period, the Representative, on behalf of all Company Stockholders and Company Optionholders (other than Persons holding only Underwater Options), shall be deemed to have accepted, and shall be bound by, the Closing Working Capital Statement and the calculation therein of the Closing Working Capital Amount, unless the Representative shall have informed Parent in writing of its disagreement with the Closing Working Capital Statement prior to the expiration of the Objection Period (the “Objection”), specifying each disputed item and setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for each such dispute (each, a “Disputed Item”). Parent shall have 30 days from the date on which it receives the Objection (the date on which such 30 day period ends, the “Response Date”) to review and respond to such Objection. If Parent and the Representative are able to negotiate a mutually agreeable resolution of each Disputed Item, and each signs a certificate to that effect, the Closing Working Capital Statement and the calculation therein of the Closing Working Capital Amount, as adjusted to reflect such resolution, shall be deemed final, non-appealable and binding for purposes of this Agreement. If any Disputed Items have not been resolved by the Response Date, either Parent or the Representative may refer such Disputed Items to the Phoenix, Arizona office of Ernst & Young LLP (such firm, or any successor thereto, the “Accounting Referee”) who shall accept its appointment within seven days after such referral, to make a final, non-appealable and binding determination as to such remaining Disputed Items pursuant to the terms hereof. The Accounting Referee shall be directed to make a determination of the Disputed Items in accordance with Section 2.3(e) promptly, but no later than 30 days, after acceptance of its appointment. Parent and the Representative agree to use their commercially reasonable efforts to effect the selection and appointment of the Accounting Referee pursuant to this Section 2.3(d), including executing an engagement agreement with the Accounting Referee providing for reasonable and customary compensation and other terms of such engagement. Parent and the Representative shall make readily available to the Accounting Referee all relevant books, records and employees of the Company and the Surviving Corporation that are reasonably requested by the Accounting Referee in connection with the Accounting Referee’s review of any Disputed Items.

(e)    If Disputed Items are referred to the Accounting Referee for resolution pursuant to Section 2.3(d), the Accounting Referee shall determine only with respect to the Disputed Items submitted whether and to what extent, if any, the Closing Working Capital Amount set forth in the Closing Working Capital Statement requires adjustment. With respect to each Disputed Item, the Accounting Referee’s determination shall be within the range of values assigned to such Disputed Item by Parent and the Representative. Any finding by the Accounting Referee shall be (i) a reasoned award stating in reasonable detail the findings of fact on which it is based, (ii) final, non-appealable and binding upon the parties hereto and (iii) the sole and exclusive remedy between the parties hereto regarding the Disputed Items so presented. The fees and expenses of the Accounting Referee shall be borne by Parent and the Representative (on behalf of the Company Stockholders and Company Optionholders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares) in the same proportion that the dollar amount of Disputed Items which are not resolved in favor of Parent or the Representative, as applicable, bears to the total dollar amount of Disputed Items resolved by the Accounting Referee. Each of Parent and the Representative (on behalf of the Company Stockholders and Company Optionholders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares) shall bear the fees, costs and expenses of its own accountants and all of its other expenses incurred in connection with matters contemplated by this Section 2.3. Any fees, costs or expenses payable by the Representative pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall be paid out of the Expense Fund Amount.

(f)    Payment of the Adjustments.

(i)    Payment of the adjustments as contemplated by this Section 2.3(f) shall be made (A) if no Objection is made by the Representative during the Objection Period, within five Business Days following the expiration of the Objection Period or (B) if the Representative submits an Objection within the Objection Period, within five Business Days following final resolution of all Disputed Items by either Parent and the Representative or the Accounting Referee.

(ii)    If, upon the final determination of the Closing Working Capital Amount as provided in Section 2.3(d) or 2.3(e), the Closing Working Capital Amount is greater than the Estimated Closing Working Capital Amount, Parent shall promptly deliver, or cause to be delivered, an aggregate amount in cash equal to such excess to (A) the Exchange Agent for payment to the Company Stockholders and Company Optionholders (other than Persons holding only Underwater Options) who are not subject to Tax withholding in accordance with the Exchange Agent Agreement and (B) on behalf of the holders of Withholding Options, to the Surviving Corporation or an Affiliate thereof, for subsequent release to the holders of Withholding Options as part of the second regularly scheduled payroll cycle of the Surviving Corporation or such Affiliate following such release. Any such amounts shall be promptly distributed to the Company Stockholders and Company Optionholders in accordance with each such Company Securityholder’s Pro Rata Share.

(iii)    If, upon the final determination of the Closing Working Capital Amount as provided in Section 2.3(d) or 2.3(e), the Estimated Closing Working Capital Amount is greater than the Closing Working Capital Amount, the Representative and Parent shall instruct the Escrow Agent to release an amount in cash equal to such excess from the Escrow Fund to Parent.

(iv)    The Estimated Adjusted Transaction Value as adjusted by this Section 2.3 is referred to herein as the “Final Adjusted Transaction Value.”

(v)    Any payment pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall be treated for all Tax purposes as an adjustment to the Adjusted Transaction Value.

2.4    Escrow; Expense Fund.

(a)    Escrow Amount. Notwithstanding the terms of Sections 2.1(c) and 2.2(a): (i) at the Effective Time, Parent shall withhold the Escrow Amount from the Merger Consideration otherwise payable: (A) pursuant to Section 2.1(c) to the Non-Dissenting Stockholders and (B) pursuant to Section 2.2(a) to the Company Optionholders and (ii) as promptly as reasonably practicable following the Closing, Parent shall deposit in escrow pursuant to the Escrow Agreement: (A) an amount in cash equal to the product of (1) the Escrow Amount, multiplied by (2) the Cash Percentage (the “Escrow Cash”) and (B) a number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the quotient of (1)(I) the Escrow Amount, minus (II) the Escrow Cash, divided by (2) the Average Trading Price (the “Escrow Shares”); provided that (x) an amount equal to the Escrow Cash-in-Lieu, shall be deposited in cash and the number of Escrow Shares shall be reduced accordingly and (y) the deposit of the Escrow Shares shall be subject to Section 2.7(c). The Escrow Amount as contemplated herein shall reflect a proportionate contribution from each Non-Dissenting Stockholder and holder of a Company Option (other than an Underwater Option) in an amount equal to such Person’s Pro Rata Share of such amount.

(b)    Escrow Agreement. Prior to the Closing, Parent, the Representative and the Escrow Agent shall enter into an escrow agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Parent and the Representative (the “Escrow Agreement”). At or promptly after the Effective Time, Parent shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Escrow Agent the Escrow Cash (including any Escrow Cash-in-Lieu) and a certificate (issued in the name of the Escrow Agent or its nominee) representing the Escrow Shares issuable pursuant to Section 2.4(a), for the purpose of partially securing the indemnification obligations of the Company Indemnifying Parties set forth in this Agreement. The Escrow Cash and the Escrow Shares (collectively, the “Escrow Fund”) shall be held by the Escrow Agent as a trust fund and shall not be subject to any lien, attachment, trustee process or any other judicial process of any creditor of any party, and shall be held as partial security for the indemnification obligations of the Company Indemnifying Parties under this Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and in the Escrow Agreement, and the Escrow Fund shall be subject to reduction for Claims as provided in Article 9. Each Company Indemnifying Party’s rights, if any, to receive amounts from the Escrow Fund are non-transferable and non-assignable.

(c)    Expense Fund Amount. Notwithstanding the terms of Sections 2.1(c) and 2.2(a): (i) at the Effective Time, Parent shall withhold the Expense Fund Amount from the Merger Consideration otherwise payable: (A) pursuant to Section 2.1(c) to the Non-Dissenting Stockholders and (B) pursuant to Section 2.2(a) to the Company Optionholders and (ii) as promptly as reasonably practicable following the Closing, Parent shall make, or cause to be made, payment of an amount of cash by wire transfer to a segregated client bank account maintained by the Representative, which amount shall be equal to the amount of the Expense Fund Amount, to be held in such segregated client bank account and distributed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Expense Fund Amount as contemplated herein shall reflect a proportionate contribution from each Non-Dissenting Stockholder and holder of a Company Option (other than an Underwater Option) in an amount equal to such Person’s Pro Rata Share of such amount.

(d)    Tax. The parties acknowledge and agree that the Escrow Amount is intended to be part of the aggregate acquisition consideration payable in exchange for Company Capital Stock in accordance with this Agreement. Accordingly, except with respect to interest imputed under Sections 483 or 1274 of the Code, the parties agree to report payments of the Escrow Amount for U.S. federal and state and foreign income Tax purposes consistent with such treatment unless otherwise required by Law.

2.5    The Closing. Subject to the earlier termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article 8, the Closing shall take place at the offices of Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP, 201 Redwood Shores Parkway, Redwood Shores, California 94065, at 10:00 a.m. Pacific time on the Closing Date. On the Closing Date or at such later date and time as may be mutually agreed in writing by the Company and Parent, the parties shall cause the Merger to be consummated by filing the Articles of Merger in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, with the Secretary of State of the State of Washington (the “Articles of Merger”) in accordance with the applicable provisions of the WBCA (the time of such filing and acceptance by the Secretary of State of the State of Washington, or such later time as may be agreed in writing by Parent, Merger Sub and the Company and specified in the Articles of Merger, shall be referred to herein as the “Effective Time”). This Agreement shall be deemed the “plan of merger” under Chapter 11 of the WBCA and this Agreement, excluding the Exhibits and Schedules hereto, shall be filed with the Articles of Merger pursuant to Section 11.050(1) of the WBCA.

2.6    Effects of the Merger. At and upon the Effective Time:

(a)    The effect of the Merger shall be as provided in this Agreement, the Articles of Merger and the applicable provisions of the WBCA. Without limiting the foregoing, and subject thereto, from and after the Effective Time, except as otherwise agreed to pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, all of the properties, rights, privileges, purposes, powers and franchises of the Company and Merger Sub shall vest in the Surviving Corporation and all of the debts, duties, and liabilities of the Company and Merger Sub shall become the debts, duties, and liabilities of the Surviving Corporation.

(b)    The articles of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation shall be amended and restated to be identical to the articles of incorporation of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that Article I of the articles of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation shall read as follows: “The name of this corporation is Telesphere Networks Ltd.”

(c)    The bylaws of the Surviving Corporation shall be amended and restated to be identical to the bylaws of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that all references to Merger Sub in the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation shall be changed to refer to “Telesphere Networks Ltd.”

(d)    The officers of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be appointed as the officers of the Surviving Corporation immediately after the Effective Time, each to hold office until their respective successors are duly appointed or until their earlier death, resignation or removal, in each case in accordance with the articles of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation.

(e)    The members of the board of directors of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be appointed as the members of the board of directors of the Surviving Corporation immediately after the Effective Time, each to hold office until their respective successors are duly elected or appointed and qualified or until their earlier death, resignation or removal, in each case in accordance with the WBCA and the articles of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation.

2.7    Exchange.

(a)    At or promptly after the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit, or cause to be deposited (i) with MUFG Union Bank, N.A. or such other Person as Parent may select (the “Exchange Agent”), for the benefit of the Company Securityholders: (A) an amount in cash equal to (1) the Aggregate Closing Cash Consideration (including the Closing Cash-in-Lieu), minus (2) the portion of the Aggregate Option Payment attributable to Company Options with respect to which the Company has Tax withholding Obligations (“Withholding Options”), minus (3) the Escrow Cash (including any Escrow Cash-in-Lieu) and (B) a number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to (1) the Closing Shares, minus (2) the Escrow Shares, in the form of certificates issued in the name of each Qualifying Holder, to be held by the Exchange Agent in accordance with the terms of the exchange agent agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) to be executed prior to the Closing by Parent and the Exchange Agent; and (ii) with the Surviving Corporation, for the benefit of the Company Optionholders who, as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, hold Withholding Options that are not Underwater Options, an amount equal to (A) the portion of the Aggregate Option Payment attributable to such Withholding Options, minus (B) an amount equal to the aggregate Pro Rata Share of the Escrow Amount and the Expense Fund Amount attributable to such Withholding Options, which shall be distributed in accordance with Section 2.2(a).

(b)    As promptly as practicable following the Agreement Date, Parent and the Company will develop and finalize a customary form of letter of transmittal (a “Stockholder Letter of Transmittal”) that shall contain (i) a release and discharge of the Company and its Subsidiaries and (ii) provisions requiring each Company Stockholder that executes and delivers a Stockholder Letter of Transmittal to be bound by Article 2, Article 9 and Article 11 as if such Company Stockholder were a party hereto. Parent shall, or shall cause the Exchange Agent to, mail, as promptly as reasonably practicable following the Effective Time, to each Company Stockholder who holds a certificate or certificates that, as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, represented shares of Company Capital Stock (the “Certificates”) a Stockholder Letter of Transmittal. Parent shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, as promptly as reasonably practicable following the Closing, to any Company Stockholder who delivers a duly completed and validly executed Stockholder Letter of Transmittal (together with the Certificate(s) from the Company Stockholders for cancellation or an affidavit of loss as described in Section 2.6(b) below and any other documents as Parent shall reasonably require), the Merger Consideration that such Company Stockholder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.1(c), without interest thereon.  

(c)    No certificates or scrip representing fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be issued to Company Stockholders upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates, and such former Company Stockholders shall not be entitled to any voting rights, rights to receive any dividends or distributions or other rights as a stockholder of Parent with respect to any fractional shares of Parent Common Stock that would have otherwise been issued to such former Company Stockholders. In lieu of any fractional shares that would have otherwise been issued, each former Company Stockholder that would have been entitled to receive a fractional share shall, upon proper surrender of such Person’s Certificates, receive a cash payment equal to product of (x) the Average Trading Price, multiplied by (y) the fraction of a share that such former Company Stockholder would otherwise be entitled to receive.

(d)    In the event any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, Parent or the Exchange Agent shall, as promptly as practicable following the receipt by Parent or the Exchange Agent, as the case may be, of such affidavit, issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the Merger Consideration represented by the lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate in exchange therefor that the Company Stockholder has the right to receive. Parent may in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate to provide to Parent an indemnity agreement or bond against any claim that may be made against Parent with respect to the Certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

(e)    From and after the Effective Time, no shares of Company Capital Stock will be deemed to be outstanding, and holders of Certificates formerly representing such Company Capital Stock shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto except as provided herein or by Law.

(f)    At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed and no transfer of Company Capital Stock shall thereafter be made. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates formerly representing shares of Company Capital Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time as set forth in the Spreadsheet are presented to Parent or the Surviving Corporation, they shall be cancelled and exchanged for the Merger Consideration and any other amount payable with respect to such Company Capital Stock in accordance with Section 2.1(c), subject to the terms of Section 2.3, Section 2.4 and this Section 2.7.

2.8    Dissenting Shares. If, in connection with the Merger, holders of Company Capital Stock shall have complied with all of the requirements under Chapter 13 of the WBCA for perfecting their right to dissent from the Merger and obtain payment of the fair value of their shares of Company Capital Stock, none of such Dissenting Shares shall be converted into a right to receive the Merger Consideration otherwise payable to the holder of such Dissenting Shares as provided in Section 2.1(c), but shall instead be converted into the right to receive such consideration as may be determined to be due with respect to such Dissenting Shares pursuant to the WBCA. Each holder of Dissenting Shares who, pursuant to the provisions of the WBCA, becomes entitled to payment of the fair value of such shares shall receive payment therefor in accordance with the WBCA (but only after the value therefor shall have been agreed upon or finally determined pursuant to the WBCA). In the event that any Company Stockholder fails to make an effective demand for payment or fails to perfect its dissenter’s rights as to its shares of Company Capital Stock or any Dissenting Shares shall otherwise lose their status as Dissenting Shares, then any such shares shall immediately be converted into the right to receive the consideration payable pursuant to Section 2.1(c) in respect of such shares as if such shares had never been Dissenting Shares, and Parent shall issue and deliver to the holder thereof, at (or as promptly as reasonably practicable after) the applicable time or times specified in Section 2.7, following the satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 2.7, the Merger Consideration to which such Company Stockholder would have been entitled under Section 2.1(c) with respect to such shares. The Company shall give Parent prompt notice (and in no event more than two Business Days) of any written notice of intent to demand payment as described in Section 13.210 of the WBCA received by the Company pursuant to the applicable provisions of the WBCA. The Company agrees that, except with Parent’s prior written consent, it shall not voluntarily make any payment or offer to make any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, any such demand or any assertion of dissenters’ rights by any Company Stockholder under the WBCA.

2.9    Tax Withholding. Each of Parent, the Surviving Corporation, the Exchange Agent and the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold, or cause to be deducted and withheld, from the Merger Consideration or any other payment otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement (including the Escrow Amount) or any Equity Release Agreement, the amounts required to be deducted and withheld under the Code, or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law, with respect to the making of such payment and, to the extent that amounts are so deducted and withheld and paid over to the applicable Governmental Authority, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of whom such deduction and withholding was made. Other than withholding with respect to compensation-related payments, the Person making such withholding shall promptly notify the Representative regarding the Person from whom funds are being withheld and the amount of such withholding. The parties agree to cooperate to allow Parent, at its election, to effectuate such withholding by means acceptable to Parent, including by paying the applicable Merger Consideration for which such withholding is required to the Surviving Corporation and causing the Surviving Corporation to withhold the applicable amounts through the Surviving Corporation’s payroll system. Except for such withholding rights, the recipient of any payments payable pursuant to this Agreement is solely responsible for any and all Liabilities for Taxes that may arise with respect to any Merger Consideration or other amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement.

2.10    Further Assurances. If, at any time before or after the Effective Time, any of the parties hereto reasonably believes or is advised that any further instruments, deeds, assignments or assurances are reasonably necessary to consummate the Merger or to carry out the purposes and intent of this Agreement at or after the Effective Time, then the Company, Parent, the Surviving Corporation and their respective officers and directors shall execute and deliver all such proper deeds, assignments, instruments and assurances and do all other things reasonably necessary to consummate the Merger and to carry out the purposes and intent of this Agreement.

Subject to the exceptions set forth in a numbered or lettered section of the disclosure letter of the Company addressed to Parent, dated as of the Agreement Date and delivered to Parent concurrently with the parties’ execution of this Agreement (the “Company Disclosure Letter”) specifically referencing a representation or warranty herein (which exceptions will qualify the section or subsection they specifically reference and will also qualify other sections or subsections in this Article to the extent that it would be reasonably apparent on the face of an exception that such exception is applicable to such other section or subsection, whether or not such other section or subsection of this Agreement expressly refers to a section or subsection of the Company Disclosure Letter), the Company represents and warrants to Parent and Merger Sub that the statements contained in this Article 3 are true and correct on and as of the Agreement Date and shall be true and correct at all times until the Closing, including as of immediately prior to the Closing. For purposes of this Agreement, a document shall be deemed to have been “made available” by the Company to Parent only if it has been posted in the electronic data site maintained by Firmex Inc. on behalf of the Company in connection with the Merger (the “Data Room”) and as to which Parent and its representatives have been provided full access at least 24 hours prior to the execution of this Agreement.

Each of the Acquired Companies has all requisite corporate or limited liability power and authority to own, operate and lease its properties and to carry on the Company Business. Each of the Acquired Companies is duly qualified or licensed to do business, and is in good standing, in each jurisdiction where the character of the properties owned, leased or operated by it or the nature of its activities makes such qualification or licensing necessary, except for such failures to be so duly qualified, licensed and in good standing as would not result, or reasonably be expected to result, in a material Liability to such Acquired Company. Without limiting the foregoing, each Acquired Company is so qualified or licensed in each jurisdiction listed on Schedule 3.1 of the Company Disclosure Letter. The Company has made available to Parent true and complete copies of the currently effective articles of incorporation and bylaws (or equivalent governing documents), including all amendments thereto, of each of the Acquired Companies (the “Charter Documents”).

All reserves established by the Company that are set forth in or reflected in the Company Balance Sheet have been established in accordance with GAAP and are adequate. The Company does not have any “off-balance sheet arrangement” within the meaning of Item 303 of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC where the result, purpose or effect of such Contract or arrangement would be to avoid disclosure of any material transaction involving, or material Liabilities of, any of the Acquired Companies in the Company’s and its consolidated Subsidiaries’ audited financial statements. The Acquired Companies maintain systems of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP, consistently applied.

All rents, required deposits and additional rents which are due under the terms of the leases have been paid in full. None of the Acquired Companies has ever owned any real property.

Any claims for indemnification made under this Section 6.4(a) on or prior to the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time shall survive such anniversary until the final resolution thereof. However, the foregoing covenants under this Section 6.4(a) shall not apply to (i) any claim or matter that relates to a willful or intentional breach of a representation, warranty or covenant made by the Company in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or (ii) any claim based on a claim for which a Parent Indemnified Person would be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Article 9. In the event of a breach of the representation set forth in the last sentence of Section 3.6, this Section 6.4(a) shall be terminated with respect to any claim not disclosed in Schedule 3.6 of the Company Disclosure Letter. For the avoidance of doubt, and notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in the Company Indemnification Provisions, no Company Indemnified Party shall be entitled to coverage under any Parent director and officer insurance policy or errors and omission policy unless such Company Indemnified Party is separately eligible for coverage under such policy pursuant to Parent’s policies and procedures and the terms of such insurance policy. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such indemnity shall be provided if such claim was the result of any Company Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(m)    Parent shall maintain (or cause the Surviving Corporation to maintain) the Insurance Coverage in full force and effect, and continue to honor the obligations thereunder during the term thereof; provided, however, that neither Parent nor the Surviving Corporation shall be required to pay any additional amounts following the Closing with respect to such Insurance Coverage, including any additional amounts to maintain such Insurance Coverage.

(o)    The provisions of this Section 6.4 shall in no way affect the rights of the Parent Indemnified Persons or the obligations of the Company Stockholders arising under Article 9, and any Liabilities subject to indemnification pursuant to Section 6.4(a) or to be covered by Insurance Coverage pursuant to Section 6.4(b) shall in no event include any Damages for which any Company Stockholder is liable (either directly or through an obligation to indemnify another Person) pursuant to the terms hereof.

(p)    In the event that Parent or the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, assume the obligations set forth in this Section 6.4.

(b)    With respect to any employee benefit plan of Parent in which any Company Continuing Employees will participate effective as of the Closing Date (collectively, “Parent Benefit Plans”), Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, recognize all service of the Company Continuing Employees with the Acquired Companies as if such service were with Parent or its Affiliates for purposes of vesting and eligibility to participate in any Parent Benefit Plan; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to the extent that its application would result in a duplication of benefits. In addition, with respect to each Parent Benefit Plan that is a “welfare benefit plan” (as defined in Section 3(1) of ERISA), Parent or its Affiliates shall (i) use commercially reasonable efforts to cause to be waived any pre-existing condition exclusion or waiting periods that apply to the Company Continuing Employees, unless such conditions would not have been waived under the comparable plans of the Company and its Affiliates and (ii) provide each Company Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents with credit for any eligible expenses incurred under any Company Employee Plan for purposes of satisfying the co-payment, deductible and maximum out-of-pocket requirements applicable to such Company Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents as if such amounts had been paid in accordance with the corresponding Parent Benefit Plans.

(c)    The provisions of this Section 6.5 are solely for the benefit of the parties to this Agreement, and no employee of any of the Acquired Companies shall be regarded for any purpose as a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement and no provision of this Section 6.5 shall create such rights in any such persons.

(v)    Either Parent or the Company, by giving written notice to the other, may terminate this Agreement if the Merger shall not have been consummated by 11:59 p.m. Eastern time on January 31, 2015 if the conditions to the terminating party’s obligations to Closing under Article 7 have not been satisfied by the other party or waived by the terminating party by such date other than conditions pertaining to covenants to be performed as part of effectuating the Closing; provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.2(b) shall not be available to any party whose breach of a representation or warranty or covenant made under this Agreement by such party results in the failure of any condition set forth in Article 7 to be fulfilled or satisfied on or before such date.

(w)    Either Parent or the Company, by giving written notice to the other, may terminate this Agreement at any time prior to the Effective Time if the other has committed a breach of (i) any of its representations and warranties under Article 3 or Article 4, as applicable, or (ii) any of its covenants under Article 5 or Article 6, as applicable, and (A) has not cured such breach within 10 Business Days after the party seeking to terminate this Agreement has given the other party written notice of such breach and its intention to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.2(c) (provided, however, that no such cure period shall be available or applicable to any such breach which by its nature cannot be cured) and (B) if not cured on or prior to the Closing Date, such breach would result in the failure of any of the conditions set forth in Article 7 to be fulfilled or satisfied; provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.2(c) shall not be available to a party if such party is at that time in material breach of this Agreement.

(x)    Parent, by giving written notice to the Company, may terminate this Agreement at any time prior to the Effective Time if any event has occurred or any circumstance exists which, alone or together with any one or more other events or circumstances has had, is having or would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company.

In the event of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.2, this Agreement shall forthwith become void and there shall be no Liability or obligation on the part of Parent, Merger Sub or the Company or their respective officers, directors, stockholders or Affiliates; provided, however, that (a) the provisions of this Section 8.3 and Article 11 shall remain in full force and effect and survive any termination of this Agreement and (b) nothing herein shall relieve any party hereto from Liability in connection with any fraud, willful breach or intentional misrepresentation of any of such party’s representations, warranties or covenants contained herein, to the extent occurring prior to such termination.

The representations and warranties of Parent and Merger Sub contained in this Agreement and the certificates to be delivered pursuant to Section 7.3 shall survive the Effective Time and remain in full force and effect until the Expiration Date; provided, however, that (i) no right to indemnification pursuant to this Article 9 in respect of any claim based upon any failure of a representation or warranty to be true and correct that is set forth in a Notice of Claim delivered in accordance with Section 9.5 prior to the applicable expiration date of such representation or warranty shall be affected by the expiration of such representation or warranty; and (ii) such expiration shall not affect the rights of any Securityholder Indemnified Person, under this Article 9 or otherwise, to seek recovery of Damages arising out of any fraud, willful breach or intentional misrepresentation until the 60th day following the expiration of the statute of limitations applicable to such fraud, willful breach or intentional misrepresentation.

In the case of a claim with respect to any of the Parent Representation Indemnities, the Parent Indemnifying Parties shall be jointly and severally liable for any Damages resulting therefrom up to an amount equal to the General Escrow Amount, except in the case of (A) fraud, willful breach or intentional misrepresentation or (B) any failure of any of the Specified Representations to be true and correct as set forth in Section 9.3(a).

(d)    In the case of (i) any failure of any of the Specified Representations to be true and correct as set forth in Section 9.2(a), (ii) any claim for indemnification made pursuant to clauses (b) through (h) of Section 9.2, (iii) any claim for indemnification made pursuant to clause (i) of Section 9.2 arising out of an alleged breach of any Specified Representation or the matters described in clauses (b) through (h) of Section 9.2, and (iv) any claim for indemnification arising out of fraud, willful breach or intentional misrepresentation, each Company Indemnifying Party shall be severally and not jointly liable for such Company Indemnifying Party’s Pro Rata Share of any Damages resulting therefrom up to the aggregate portion of the Final Adjusted Transaction Value received by such Company Indemnifying Party pursuant to Article 2. Any Damages recoverable by the Parent Indemnified Persons (A) pursuant to indemnification claims under this Article 9 (other than with respect to the Special Tax Indemnities) shall be paid first out of the portion of the Escrow Fund constituting the General Escrow Amount and second, if the portion of the Escrow Fund constituting the General Escrow Amount is insufficient to satisfy such Damages in full or if the portion of the Escrow Fund constituting the General Escrow Amount has been released in accordance with the Escrow Agreement, by the Company Indemnifying Parties, subject to the limitations set forth in this Article 9 and (B) pursuant to indemnification claims with respect to the Special Tax Indemnities shall be paid first out of the portion of the Escrow Fund constituting the Tax Escrow Amount, second out of the remaining funds in the Escrow Fund, and third, if the Escrow Fund is insufficient to satisfy such Damages in full or if the Escrow Fund has been released in accordance with the Escrow Agreement, by the Company Indemnifying Parties, subject to the limitations set forth in this Article 9. In the case of (1) any failure of any of the Specified Representations to be true and correct as set forth in Section 9.3(a), and (2) any claim for indemnification arising out of fraud, willful breach or intentional misrepresentation, the Parent Indemnifying Parties shall be jointly and severally liable for any Damages resulting therefrom up to the Final Adjusted Transaction Value in the aggregate.

(e)    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, there shall be no maximum liability for any Company Indemnifying Party (i) who committed fraud or made any intentional misrepresentation in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or willfully breached this Agreement or (ii) who has actual knowledge of such fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful breach.

(f)    No Parent Indemnified Person may receive any portion of the Escrow Fund in respect of any claim for indemnification that is made pursuant to the Company Representation Indemnities (in each case except for any claims (i) with respect to any Specified Representations, or (ii) which involve fraud, willful breach or intentional misrepresentation), unless and until Damages in the aggregate under all claims that have been incurred, paid or properly accrued exceed $570,000 (the “Basket”), in which case the Parent Indemnified Persons may make claims for indemnification for all Damages, including the amount of the Basket. No Securityholder Indemnified Person may receive any proceeds from Parent in respect of any claim for indemnification that is made pursuant to the Parent Representation Indemnities (in each case except for any claims (x) with respect to any Specified Representations, or (y) which involve fraud, willful breach or intentional misrepresentation), unless and until Damages in the aggregate under all claims that have been incurred, paid or properly accrued exceed the Basket, in which case the Securityholder Indemnified Persons may make claims for indemnification for all Damages, including the amount of the Basket. In determining the amount of any Damages in respect of the failure of any representation or warranty to be true and correct as of any particular date, any materiality or Material Adverse Effect standard contained in such representation or warranty shall be disregarded; provided, however, that this sentence shall not apply in connection with determining the amount of any Damages in respect of the failure of any Specified Representation to be true and correct as of any particular date (and, as a result, any materiality or Material Adverse Effect standards contained in such Specified Representation shall not be disregarded in connection with determining the amount of such Damages).

(g)    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, for purposes of calculating or determining the amount of Damages incurred under Section 9.2 or Section 9.3, there shall be deducted from any Damages an amount equal to the amount of any proceeds actually received by any Parent Indemnified Person or Securityholder Indemnified Person from any third-party insurer in connection with such Damages (after giving effect to any deductible or increase in premium proximately caused thereby to the extent paid or payable and net of any costs and expenses of recovery or collection thereof); provided, however, that none of the Parent Indemnified Persons, the Securityholder Indemnified Persons or the Representative shall have any obligation to (i) seek recovery against any existing insurance policies (other than insurance policies of the Company that are in existence as of the time of Closing (disregarding any renewal or extension thereof)) or (ii) obtain insurance coverage or other third party protection with respect to any particular matter.

(h)    No Parent Indemnified Person or Securityholder Indemnified Person shall be entitled to double recovery for any adjustments to the Merger Consideration provided for hereunder or for any indemnifiable Damages even though such Damages may have resulted from the breach of more than one of the representations, warranties, agreements and covenants in this Agreement.

(i)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, under no circumstances will any party be liable to the other for any punitive, speculative or remote damages or any damages that are not the reasonably foreseeable consequence of any breach of or inaccuracy contained in this Agreement, the Company Disclosure Letter or any certificate, document or agreement contemplated by or required to be delivered pursuant to this Agreement (except to the extent such damages are awarded to a third party pursuant to a Third-Party Claim).

(j)    No Parent Indemnified Person shall be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement in respect of any Damages to the extent such Damages were taken into account in the calculation of, and reduced the value of (i) the Final Adjusted Transaction Value, including the calculation of the Closing Debt Amount or the amount of Transaction Fees (including the Closing Employee Payments) or (ii) the Closing Working Capital Amount.

(k)    The rights to indemnification set forth in this Agreement based on the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements and obligations set forth herein shall not be affected by any investigation conducted by Parent or the Company, or any knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired) at any time (whether before or after the Agreement Date or the Closing Date), with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of or compliance with, any such representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation.

(l)    The parties acknowledge the applicability of the common law duty to mitigate Damages.

9.5    Notice of Claim.

(z)    As used herein, the term “Claim” means a claim for indemnification of an Indemnified Party for Damages under this Article 9.

(aa)    The applicable Indemnified Party shall give written notice of a Claim executed by an authorized representative of such Indemnified Party (a “Notice of Claim”) to the Indemnitor (with a copy to the Escrow Agent if the Claim involves recovery against the Escrow Fund) reasonably promptly after the Indemnified Party becomes aware of the existence of any potential claim for indemnification under this Article 9, arising from or relating to:

(i)    any matter specified in Section 9.2 or Section 9.3; or

(ii)    the assertion, whether orally or in writing, against any Indemnified Party of an Action brought by a third party against such Indemnified Party that is based on, arises out of, or relates to subject matter that, if determined adversely to such Indemnified Party (regardless of the eventual outcome of such Action), could result in a Claim (in each such case, a “Third-Party Claim”).

(bb)    No delay on the part of an Indemnified Party in giving the Indemnitor a Notice of Claim (or any update or amendment thereto after conducting discovery regarding the underlying facts and circumstances set forth therein) shall relieve the Representative or any Company Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, or any Parent Indemnifying Party, on the other hand, from any of their respective obligations under this Article 9 unless (and then only to the extent that) the Representative or the Company Indemnifying Parties, on the one hand, or the Parent Indemnifying Parties, on the other hand, are materially prejudiced thereby in terms of the amount of Damages for which such Persons are obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party.

9.6    Defense of Third-Party Claims.

(y)    The Indemnified Party shall determine and conduct the investigation, defense or settlement of any Third-Party Claim, and the costs and expenses incurred or paid by the Indemnified Party in connection with such investigation, defense or settlement (including attorneys’ fees, other professionals’ and experts’ fees, costs of investigation and court or arbitration costs) shall be included in the Damages for which the Indemnified Party may seek indemnification pursuant to a Claim made by any Indemnified Party hereunder, regardless of the resolution of such Third-Party Claim and whether it is ultimately determined that such Third-Party Claim arose out of, resulted from or was in connection with a matter for which indemnity is otherwise provided pursuant to Section 9.2 or Section 9.3.

(z)    The Indemnitor shall have the right to receive copies of all pleadings, notices and communications with respect to the Third-Party Claim to the extent that receipt of such documents by the Indemnitor does not affect any privilege relating to the Indemnified Party and the Indemnified Party shall provide the Indemnitor the opportunity to consult with and participate in, but not to determine or conduct, any defense of the Third-Party Claim or settlement negotiations with respect to the Third-Party Claim, all at the sole expense of the Indemnitor.

(aa)    No settlement of any such Third-Party Claim with any third party claimant shall be determinative of the amount of Damages relating to such matter, except with the consent of the Indemnitor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed and which shall be deemed to have been given unless the Indemnitor shall have objected within 30 days after written request for such consent by the Indemnified Party.

9.7    Contents of Notice of Claim. Each Notice of Claim by an Indemnified Party given pursuant to Section 9.5 shall contain the following information: (a) that such Indemnified Party has directly or indirectly incurred, paid or properly accrued or, in good faith, believes it shall have to directly or indirectly incur, pay or accrue, Damages in an aggregate stated amount arising from such Claim (which amount may be an estimated amount or may be the amount of Damages claimed by a third party in a Third-Party Claim); and (b) a brief description, in reasonable detail (to the extent reasonably available to such Indemnified Party), of the facts, circumstances or events giving rise to the alleged Damages based on such Indemnified Party’s good faith belief thereof, including, to the extent reasonably available to such Indemnified Party: (i) the identity and address of any third-party claimant, (ii) copies of any formal demand or complaint and (iii) the specific nature of the breach to which such item is related; provided, however, that the Notice of Claim may be updated and amended from time to time by the Indemnified Party in good faith by delivering an updated or amended Notice of Claim to the Indemnitor, so long as the delivery of the original Notice of Claim is made within the applicable claims period and such update or amendment only asserts bases for liability reasonably related to the underlying facts and circumstances specifically set forth in such original Notice of Claim; provided further, that all Claims for Damages properly set forth in the original Notice of Claim or any permitted update or amendment thereto shall remain outstanding until such Claims for Damages have been finally resolved or satisfied, notwithstanding the expiration of such claims period.

9.8    Resolution of Notice of Claim.

(u)    Each Notice of Claim given by an Indemnified Party shall be resolved as follows:

(i)    Uncontested Claims. If, within 30 days after a Notice of Claim is received by the Indemnitor, the Indemnitor does not contest such Notice of Claim in writing to the Indemnified Party (with a copy to the Escrow Agent if the Claim involves recovery against the Escrow Fund) as provided in Section 9.8(a)(ii), the Indemnitor shall be conclusively deemed to have consented, on behalf of all Company Indemnifying Parties or Parent Indemnifying Parties, as applicable, to the recovery by the Indemnified Party of the full amount of Damages (subject to the limitations contained in this Article 9) specified in the Notice of Claim in accordance with this Article 9, including the forfeiture of all or a portion of the Escrow Fund, and, without further notice, to have stipulated to the entry of a final judgment for damages against the Company Indemnifying Parties or Parent Indemnifying Parties, as applicable, for such amount in any court having jurisdiction over the matter where venue is proper.

(ii)    Contested Claims. If the Indemnitor gives the Indemnified Party written notice contesting all or any portion of a Notice of Claim (a “Contested Claim”) (with a copy to the Escrow Agent if the Claim involves recovery against the Escrow Fund) within the 30-day period specified in Section 9.8(a)(i), then such Contested Claim shall be resolved by either (A) a written settlement agreement executed by Parent and the Representative (a copy of which shall be furnished to the Escrow Agent if the Claim involves recovery against the Escrow Fund) or (B) in the absence of such a written settlement agreement within 30 days following receipt by the Indemnified Party of the written notice from the Indemnitor, by binding litigation between Parent and the Representative in accordance with the terms and provisions of Section 9.8(b).

(v)    Litigation of Contested Claims. Either Parent or the Representative may bring suit in the courts of the State of Delaware and the Federal courts of the United States of America located within the State of Delaware to resolve a Contested Claim. The decision of the trial court as to the validity and amount of any claim in such Notice of Claim shall be nonappealable, binding and conclusive upon the parties to this Agreement and the Company Indemnifying Parties, the Parent Indemnifying Parties and the Escrow Agent, as applicable, shall be obligated to act in accordance with such decision and make or withhold payments out of the Escrow Fund in accordance therewith. Judgment upon any award rendered by the trial court may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. For purposes of this Section 9.8(b), in any suit hereunder in which any claim or the amount thereof stated in a Notice of Claim is at issue, the party seeking indemnification shall be deemed to be the non-prevailing party unless the trial court awards such party more than one-half of the amount in dispute, in which case the party from whom indemnification is sought shall be deemed to be the non-prevailing party. The non-prevailing party to a suit shall pay its own expenses and the expenses, including attorneys’ fees and documented out-of-pocket costs, reasonably incurred by the other party to the suit.

(w)    If any amount is determined, agreed or deemed agreed to be owed to any Parent Indemnified Person in accordance with this Section 9.8, then within three Business Days following the date such amount is determined, agreed or deemed agreed to be owed, Parent and the Representative shall execute and deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to release such amount to the Parent Indemnified Person from the Escrow Fund (to the extent of the Escrow Fund) as follows: (i) a number of Escrow Shares having an aggregate Value equal to the product of (A) such amount, multiplied by (B) the Stock Percentage, and (ii) an amount of cash equal to the product of (A) such amount, multiplied by (B) the Cash Percentage. For purposes of this Article 9, the “Value” of any Escrow Shares delivered to a Parent Indemnified Person in satisfaction of a Claim shall be equal to the product of (x) the Average Trading Price (subject to equitable adjustment in the event of any stock split, stock dividend, reverse stock split or similar event affecting the Parent Common Stock after the Effective Time), multiplied by (y) the number of Escrow Shares.

9.9    Release of Remaining Escrow Fund.

(f)    General Escrow Amount. As soon as reasonably practicable following the Expiration Date, Parent shall instruct the Escrow Agent to deliver (based on each Company Indemnifying Party’s Pro Rata Share of the Escrow Amount) to the Company Indemnifying Parties (other than the holders of Withholding Options), and, on behalf of the holders of Withholding Options, to the Surviving Corporation or an Affiliate thereof, for subsequent release to such holders of Withholding Options as part of the second regularly scheduled payroll cycle of the Surviving Corporation or such Affiliate following such release, all of the funds in the Escrow Fund (if any) attributable to the General Escrow Amount in excess of any amounts in the Escrow Fund that is necessary to satisfy all unresolved, unsatisfied or disputed Claims for Damages specified in any Notice of Claim delivered to the Representative before the Expiration Date (based on the total maximum amount of Damages then being claimed by Parent Indemnified Persons in such unresolved, unsatisfied or disputed Claims). If any Claims are unresolved, unsatisfied or disputed as of the Expiration Date, then the Escrow Agent shall retain possession and custody of that portion of the Escrow Fund that equals the total maximum amount of Damages then being claimed by Parent Indemnified Persons in all such unresolved, unsatisfied or disputed Claims, and as soon as all such Claims have been resolved, the Escrow Agent shall deliver (based on the Pro Rata Share of the Escrow Amount of each Company Indemnifying Party) to the Company Indemnifying Parties (other than the holders of Withholding Options), and, on behalf of the holders of Withholding Options, to the Surviving Corporation or an Affiliate thereof, for subsequent release to such holders of Withholding Options as part of the second regularly scheduled payroll cycle of the Surviving Corporation or such Affiliate following such release, all remaining amounts in the Escrow Fund (if any) attributable to the General Escrow Amount not required to satisfy such Claims.

(g)    Tax Escrow Amount. As soon as reasonably practicable following the earlier of (i) the final resolution of all Claims with respect to the Special Tax Indemnities or (ii) the Tax Escrow Expiration Date, Parent shall instruct the Escrow Agent to deliver (based on each Company Indemnifying Party’s Pro Rata Share of the Escrow Amount) to the Company Indemnifying Parties (other than the holders of Withholding Options), and, on behalf of the holders of Withholding Options, to the Surviving Corporation or an Affiliate thereof, for subsequent release to such holders of Withholding Options as part of the second regularly scheduled payroll cycle of the Surviving Corporation or such Affiliate following such release, all of the Escrow Fund (if any) in excess of any amounts in the Escrow Fund that is necessary to satisfy all unresolved, unsatisfied or disputed Claims for Damages specified in any Notice of Claim delivered to the Representative before the Tax Escrow Expiration Date (based on the total maximum amount of Damages then being claimed by Parent Indemnified Persons in such unresolved, unsatisfied or disputed Claims). If any Claims are unresolved, unsatisfied or disputed as of the Tax Escrow Expiration Date, then the Escrow Agent shall retain possession and custody of that portion of the Escrow Fund that equals the total maximum amount of Damages then being claimed by Parent Indemnified Persons in all such unresolved, unsatisfied or disputed Claims, and as soon as all such Claims have been resolved, the Escrow Agent shall deliver (based on the Pro Rata Share of the Escrow Amount of each Company Indemnifying Party) to the Company Indemnifying Parties (other than the holders of Withholding Options), and, on behalf of the holders of Withholding Options, to the Surviving Corporation or an Affiliate thereof, for subsequent release to such holders of Withholding Options as part of the second regularly scheduled payroll cycle of the Surviving Corporation or such Affiliate following such release, all remaining amounts in the Escrow Fund (if any) not required to satisfy such Claims.

9.10    Tax Consequences of Indemnification Payments. All payments (if any) made to a Parent Indemnified Person pursuant to any indemnification obligations under this Article 9 will be treated as adjustments to the purchase price for Tax purposes and such agreed treatment will govern for purposes of this Agreement, unless otherwise required by Law.

9.11    No Right of Contribution. No Company Indemnifying Party or the Representative acting on their behalf shall make any claim for indemnification or contribution from Parent, the Company, the Surviving Corporation or any Affiliate, assign or successor of any of the foregoing with respect to any indemnity claims arising under or in connection with this Agreement to the extent that the Company, the Surviving Corporation or any Parent Indemnified Person is entitled to indemnification hereunder for such claim, it being acknowledged and agreed that the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the Company are solely for the benefit of the Parent Indemnified Persons.

9.12    Exclusive Remedy. Following the Closing, except for claims based on fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful breach and except as contemplated by Section 11.5: (a) the rights to indemnification provided by Sections 9.2 and 9.3 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy for any Damages of any Indemnified Party with respect to any breach of this Agreement by the Company, on the one hand, or Parent and Merger Sub, on the other hand, or with respect to any of the matters set forth in Sections 9.2 and 9.3, (b) all statutes of limitations or other claims periods with respect to claims for Damages based on the matters that are subject to the limitations set forth in Section 9.1 shall be shortened to the applicable claims periods and survival periods set forth in Section 9.1 and (c) the Parent Indemnified Persons and the Securityholder Indemnified Persons irrevocably waive any and all rights they may have to make claims against any Company Indemnifying Party or Parent Indemnifying Party, respectively, under statutory and common law with respect to any breach of this Agreement by the Company, on the one hand, or Parent or Merger Sub, on the other hand, or with respect to any of the matters set forth in Sections 9.2 and 9.3.

9.13    Appointment of Representative.

(d)    By voting in favor of the adoption of this Agreement and the consummation of the Merger, executing and delivering a Support Agreement or an Option Surrender Agreement or participating in the Merger and receiving the benefits thereof, each Company Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have approved the designation of and hereby designates the Representative as the representative of the Company Indemnifying Parties and as the attorney-in-fact and agent for and on behalf of each Company Indemnifying Party with respect to Claims under this Article 9 and the taking by the Representative of any and all actions and the making of any decisions required or permitted to be taken by the Representative under this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement or any Company Ancillary Agreement to which such Company Indemnified Party is a party in its capacity as a Company Indemnifying Party, including the exercise of the power to: (i) give and receive notices and communications to or from Parent (on behalf of itself or any other Parent Indemnified Person) and/or the Escrow Agent relating to this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement, any Company Ancillary Agreement to which such Company Indemnified Party is a party in its capacity as a Company Indemnifying Party, or any of the transactions and other matters contemplated hereby or thereby (except to the extent that this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement or any Company Ancillary Agreement to which such Company Indemnified Party is a party in its capacity as a Company Indemnifying Party expressly contemplates that any such notice or communication shall be given or received by such Company Indemnifying Party individually), (ii) authorize the release or delivery to Parent of all or a portion of the Escrow Fund in satisfaction of Claims by Parent or any other Parent Indemnified Person pursuant to this Article 9 (including by not objecting to such Claims), (iii) agree to, object to, negotiate, resolve, enter into settlements and compromises of, demand litigation of, and comply with orders of courts with respect to (A) Claims by Parent or any other Parent Indemnified Person pursuant to this Article 9 or (B) any dispute between any Parent Indemnified Person and any such Company Indemnifying Party, in each case, relating to this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement, and (iv) take all actions necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing. Either John Chapple or Gary O’Malley may take any action as the Representative hereunder without the signature or consent of the other. The Representative shall have authority and power to act on behalf of each Company Indemnifying Party with respect to the disposition, settlement or other handling of all Claims under this Article 9 and all rights or obligations arising under this Article 9. The Company Indemnifying Parties shall be bound by all actions taken and documents executed by the Representative in connection with this Article 9, and Parent and the other Parent Indemnified Persons shall be entitled to rely on any action or decision of the Representative. The Company Indemnifying Parties recognize and intend that the power of attorney granted in this Section 9.13(a) and the powers, immunities and rights to indemnification granted to the Representative hereunder: (1) are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable; (2) may be delegated by the Representative; and (3) shall survive the death, incapacity, dissolution, liquidation, bankruptcy or winding up of each of the Company Indemnifying Parties and shall be binding on any successor thereto. Each Company Indemnifying Party (I) agrees that all actions taken by the Representative under this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement shall be binding upon such Company Indemnifying Party and such Company Indemnifying Party’s successors as if expressly confirmed and ratified in writing by such Company Indemnifying Party and (II) waives any and all defenses which may be available to contest, negate or disaffirm the action of the Representative taken in good faith under this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement. The Representative shall only have the duties expressly stated in this Agreement and shall have no other duty, express or implied. The Representative may engage attorneys, accountants and other professionals and experts. The Representative may in good faith rely conclusively upon information, reports, statements and opinions prepared or presented by such professionals, and any action taken by the Representative based on such reliance shall be deemed conclusively to have been taken in good faith. Parent may conclusively rely, without independent verification or investigation, upon any action of the Representative as being the binding decision or action of the Company Indemnifying Parties, and Parent shall not be liable to any Company Indemnified Party or any other Person for any actions taken or omitted from being taken by them or by Parent in accordance with or reliance upon any decision or action of the Representative. Prior to the Effective Time, either John Chapple or Gary O’Malley may resign from his role as the Representative. The Person serving as the Representative may be replaced from time to time by the holders of a majority in interest of the Escrow Fund then on deposit with the Escrow Agent upon not less than 10 Business Days’ prior written notice to Parent and the Escrow Agent. No bond shall be required of the Representative, and the Representative shall receive no compensation for his, her or its services. Notices or communications to or from the Representative shall constitute notice to or from each of the Company Indemnifying Parties.

(e)    In performing the functions specified in this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, the Representative shall not be liable to any Company Indemnifying Party in the absence of gross negligence or willful breach on the part of the Representative. Each Company Indemnifying Party shall severally (based on each such Company Indemnifying Party’s respective Pro Rata Share), and not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless the Representative from and against any loss, Liability or expense incurred without gross negligence or willful breach on the part of the Representative and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of its duties hereunder, including any out-of-pocket costs and expenses and legal fees and other legal costs reasonably incurred by the Representative (together, the “Representative Expenses”) if not paid directly to the Representative by the Company Indemnifying Parties, such Representative Expenses may be recovered by the Representative (i) first, from the Expense Fund Amount and (ii) second, to the extent the Expense Fund Amount is insufficient, from funds in the Escrow Fund otherwise distributable to the Company Indemnifying Parties (and not distributed or distributable to any Parent Indemnified Person or subject to a pending Claim of any Parent Indemnified Person) following the Expiration Date, at the time of distribution, so long as the Representative has delivered to the Escrow Agent prior to such time a certificate setting forth such Representative Expenses actually incurred, and such recovery will be made from the Company Indemnifying Parties according to their respective Pro Rata Shares.

(f)    Each of John Chapple and Gary O’Malley (in his capacity as the Representative) represents and warrants to Parent and Merger Sub as of the Agreement Date and as of the Closing Date as follows: (i) the Representative has all requisite power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and any other applicable other contract, instrument or document contemplated hereby and to perform his respective obligations hereunder and thereunder, (ii) this Agreement and any other applicable contract, instrument or document contemplated hereby has been duly executed and delivered by the Representative and constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Representative, enforceable in accordance with its terms and (iii) neither the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement or any other applicable contract, instrument or document contemplated hereby by the Representative nor the consummation of the Merger will conflict with, or result in a termination, breach, impairment or violation of any applicable Law or Contract to which the Representative or its assets or properties is bound.

(g)    Upon the payment of the Expense Fund Amount by Parent or its designee to the segregated client bank account maintained by the Representative for the Expense Fund Amount pursuant to Section 2.4(c), each Company Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have contributed his, her or its Pro Rata Share of the Expense Fund Amount. The Representative shall hold the Expense Fund Amount in accordance with this Agreement on behalf of the Company Indemnifying Parties as a fund which will be used for the purposes of paying directly, or reimbursing the Representative for, any third party expenses pursuant to this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement. The Company Indemnifying Parties will not receive any interest or earnings on the Expense Fund Amount and irrevocably transfer and assign to the Representative any ownership right that they may otherwise have had in any such interest or earnings. The Representative will not be liable for any loss of principal of the Expense Fund Amount other than as a result of its gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith. The Representative will hold these funds separate from its corporate funds, will not use these funds for its operating expenses or any other corporate purposes and will not voluntarily make these funds available to its creditors in the event of bankruptcy. Contemporaneous with or as soon as practicable following the release in full of the Escrow Fund, the Representative will deliver the balance of the Expense Fund Amount to the Exchange Agent for further distribution to the Company Indemnifying Parties (other than the holders of Withholding Options) and to the Surviving Corporation or an Affiliate thereof, on behalf of the holders of Withholding Options, for subsequent release to such holders of Withholding Options as part of the second regularly scheduled payroll cycle of the Surviving Corporation or such Affiliate following such delivery, in each case, in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares. For Tax purposes, the Expense Fund Amount will be treated as having been received and voluntarily set aside by the Company Indemnifying Parties at the time of Closing.

10.1    Tax Returns.

(m)    The Company shall prepare and timely file, or shall cause to be prepared and timely filed, all Tax Returns in respect of the Acquired Companies that are required to be filed (taking into account any extension) on or before the Closing Date, and the Company shall pay, or cause to be paid, all Taxes of the Acquired Companies due on or before the Closing Date. Such Tax Returns shall be prepared by treating items on such Tax Returns in a manner consistent with the past practices of the Company with respect to such items, except as required by Law. At least 15 Business Days prior to filing any such Tax Return, the Company shall submit a copy of such Tax Return, along with supporting workpapers, to Parent for Parent’s review and approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(n)    Except for Special Tax Returns, which shall be handled in accordance with Section 10.3(c), following the Closing Date, Parent shall file all Tax Returns required to be filed by the Acquired Companies after the Closing Date. Parent shall permit the Representative, at the Company Stockholders’ expense, to review and comment on each such Tax Return with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period at least 15 days prior to filing. The Representative shall be entitled to comment on such Tax Returns and the Parent shall consider such comments in good faith. To the extent any such Tax Return is not prepared consistent with the past practices of the Company, except as required by Law, Parent shall make changes to such Tax Return reasonably requested by the Representative. If the Parent does not receive comments from the Representative at least five days prior to the filing of such Tax Returns, the Representative shall be deemed to have no comments to such Tax Returns.

(o)    Not later than 10 days prior to the due date of the payment of Taxes on any Tax Returns which Parent has the responsibility to cause to be filed pursuant to Section 10.1(b), without duplication of, or prejudice to, the Parent Indemnified Persons’ rights to indemnification under Section 9.2, Parent shall be entitled to withdraw from the Escrow Fund an amount equal to the amount of Indemnified Taxes, as reasonably determined by Parent, due in respect of such Tax Returns.

(p)    Without the prior written consent of the Representative and except as required by Law, Parent shall not, and shall not allow any Acquired Company to, amend any Tax Return of any Acquired Company for a Pre-Closing Tax Period or carry back any item to any Tax Return of any Acquired Company for a Pre-Closing Tax Period to the extent such amended Tax Return or carryback could reasonably be expected to result in a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Agreement.

10.2    Cooperation. Parent and the Representative agree to furnish or cause to be furnished to the other, upon request, as promptly as practicable, such information and assistance relating to Taxes, including access to books and records, as is reasonably necessary for the filing of all Tax Returns by Parent or the Representative, the making of any election relating to Taxes, the preparation for any audit by any Tax authority and the prosecution or defense of any claim, suit or proceeding relating to any Tax. For clarity, such cooperation by Parent shall include, subject to Section 10.3(c), reasonable assistance relating to the preparing and filing by the Representative of any Special Tax Returns or entering into any voluntary disclosure agreements or other agreements relating to any Special Tax Indemnities Taxes. Each of Parent, the Company and the Representative shall retain all books and records in their possession with respect to Taxes for a period of at least seven years following the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision herein to the contrary, including Section 9.6(b), in no event shall the Representative be entitled to review or otherwise have access to any income Tax Return, or information related thereto, of Parent or its Affiliates (other than income Tax Returns of the Company for Pre-Closing Tax Periods).

10.3    Tax Audits.

(m)    If notice of any Action with respect to Taxes of the Acquired Companies (a “Tax Claim”) shall be received by any party for which any other party may reasonably be expected to be liable, the notified party shall notify such other party or parties in writing of such Tax Claim; provided, however, that the failure of the notified party to give any other party notice as provided herein shall not relieve such other party of its indemnification obligations under Article 9 or this Article 10 except to the extent that such other party is actually and materially prejudiced thereby. Tax Claims shall be considered Third-Party Claims for purposes of Article 9. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, to the extent that a provision of this Section 10.3 directly conflicts with any provision of Article 9, this Section 10.3 shall govern.

(n)    Parent shall have the right to control the conduct of any Tax Claim with respect to a Straddle Period of any Acquired Company (a “Straddle Tax Claim”). To the extent a Straddle Tax Claim relates to the amount of Taxes attributable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date, Parent shall keep the Representative informed of all developments on a timely basis, shall provide to the Representative copies of any and all material correspondence from any Governmental Authority related to such Straddle Tax Claim and shall provide the Representative with the opportunity to attend conferences with the relevant Governmental Authority (if reasonably practical) and to review and provide comments with respect to written responses provided to the relevant Governmental Authority. Parent shall not settle, compromise or abandon any Straddle Tax Claim which relates to or may reasonably give rise to Indemnified Taxes without the prior written consent of the Representative, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(o)    The Representative shall have the right to control the conduct of the portion of any Tax Claim, including the preparing and filing of any Special Tax Returns or entering into any voluntary disclosure agreements or other agreements relating to any Special Tax Indemnities Taxes, with respect to any taxable period of any of the Acquired Companies that relate exclusively to a taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date (excluding any Straddle Period) (a “Pre-Closing Tax Claim”). The Representative shall keep Parent informed of all developments on a timely basis, shall provide to Parent copies of any and all material correspondence from any Governmental Authority related to such Pre-Closing Tax Claim and shall provide Parent with the opportunity to attend conferences with the relevant Governmental Authority and to review and provide comments with respect to written responses provided to the relevant Governmental Authority and to comment on and approve Special Tax Returns. Each party shall bear its own costs for participating in such Pre-Closing Tax Claim (provided that the Representative’s costs shall be considered Representative Expenses as contemplated by Section 9.13(b)). The Representative shall not settle, compromise or abandon any Pre-Closing Tax Claim without the prior written consent of Parent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

10.4    Transfer Taxes. Any transfer, stamp, documentary, sales, use, registration, value-added and other similar Taxes (including all applicable real estate transfer Taxes) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (“Transfer Taxes”) will be borne by the Company Stockholders. The Representative and the Company Stockholders agree to file or cause to be filed in a timely manner all necessary documents (including all Tax Returns) with respect to all such amounts for which the Company Stockholders are so liable. The Representative shall provide Parent with evidence satisfactory to Parent that such Transfer Taxes have been paid by the Company Stockholders.

10.5    Tax Year. For the federal income Tax period immediately following the Closing, the Company shall be included on the federal consolidated income Tax Return of Parent. To the extent consistent with Law, the parties agree and acknowledge that it is intended that the taxable year of the Company shall end as of the close of business on the Closing Date for U.S. federal and applicable state and local income Tax purposes.

10.6    Tax Refunds. Any Tax refund that is received by Parent or any Acquired Company after the Closing Date or that is credited against any Tax to which Parent or any Acquired Company becomes entitled, in each case that relate to any Pre-Closing Tax Period, shall be for the account of the Company Stockholders and Company Optionholders (in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares), and Parent shall pay over to the Representative for the benefit of the Company Stockholders and Company Optionholders (in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares) any such refund without interest, net of costs, expenses and Taxes incurred by Parent or any Acquired Company in connection with obtaining or in connection with the receipt or accrual of such refund within 15 days after receipt or entitlement thereto; provided, however, that Parent shall not be required to pay over to the Representative Tax refunds or amounts credited against Taxes if such Tax refunds or amounts credited against Taxes are (a) included in the calculation of, and increased the value of, the Closing Working Capital Amount pursuant to Section 2.3 or have previously been taken into account in the determination of Indemnified Taxes or (b) attributable to a carry-back of net operating losses or other Tax attributes from any taxable period (or portion of any Straddle Period) beginning after the Closing Date.

11.1    Governing Law. Except to the extent a provision of Article 2 is required by Law to be governed by the WBCA, this Agreement shall be governed and construed in accordance with the internal Laws of the State of Delaware, irrespective of its conflicts of law principles. The parties hereto hereby irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Delaware and the Federal courts of the United States of America located within the State of Delaware solely in respect of the interpretation and enforcement of the provisions of this Agreement and of the documents referred to in this Agreement, and in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (including resolution of disputes under Section 9.8(b)), and hereby waive, and agree not to assert, as a defense in any action, suit or proceeding for the interpretation or enforcement hereof or thereof, that it is not subject thereto or that such action, suit or proceeding may not be brought or is not maintainable in said courts or that the venue thereof may not be appropriate or that this Agreement or any such document may not be enforced in or by such courts, and the parties hereto irrevocably agree that all claims with respect to such action or proceeding shall be heard and determined in such a Delaware State or Federal court; provided that a judgment rendered by such court may be enforced in any court having competent jurisdiction. The parties hereby consent to and grant any such court jurisdiction over the person of such parties and over the subject matter of such dispute and agree that mailing of process or other papers in connection with any such action or proceeding in the manner provided in Section 11.9 or in such other manner as may be permitted by Law, shall be valid and sufficient service thereof. With respect to any particular action, suit or proceeding, venue shall lie solely in the State of Delaware.

11.2    Assignment; Binding Upon Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of Parent, including any successor to, or assignee of, all or substantially all of the business and assets of Parent. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, no party hereto may assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Any assignment in violation of this provision shall be void.

11.3    Severability. If any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof, shall for any reason and to any extent be invalid or unenforceable, then the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision to other persons or circumstances shall be interpreted so as reasonably to effect the intent of the parties hereto. The parties further agree to replace such void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that shall achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of the void or unenforceable provision.

11.4    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts (including via facsimile, .pdf or other electronic means), each of which shall be an original as regards any party whose signature appears thereon and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement shall become binding when one or more counterparts hereof, individually or taken together, shall bear the signatures of all parties reflected hereon as signatories.

11.5    Other Remedies. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a party hereunder shall be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby or by Law on such party, and the exercise of any one remedy shall not preclude the exercise of any other. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached, and that money damages or other legal remedies would not be an adequate remedy for any such damage. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any court of the United States or any State having jurisdiction, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.

11.6    Amendments and Waivers. Any term or provision of this Agreement may be amended, and the observance of any term of this Agreement may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), only by a writing signed by Parent, the Company and the Representative. The waiver by a party of any breach hereof or default in the performance hereof shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver of any other default or any succeeding breach or default. This Agreement may be amended by the parties hereto as provided in this Section 11.6 at any time before or after adoption of this Agreement by the Company Stockholders, but, after such adoption, no amendment shall be made which by Law requires the further approval of the Company Stockholders without obtaining such further approval. At any time prior to the Effective Time, each of the Company and Parent may, to the extent legally allowed, (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties made to it contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto, and (c) waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions for its benefit contained herein. No such waiver or extension shall be effective unless signed in writing by the party against whom such waiver or extension is asserted. The failure of any party to enforce any of the provisions hereof shall not be construed to be a waiver of the right of such party thereafter to enforce such provisions.

11.7    Expenses. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, whether or not the Merger is successfully consummated, each party shall bear its respective legal, accountants, and financial advisory fees and other expenses incurred with respect to this Agreement, the Merger and the transactions contemplated hereby, it being the intention of the parties that if the Merger is consummated, the Transaction Fees be taken into account in calculating the Adjusted Transaction Value as set forth herein. Parent shall pay 50% of any filing fee required under the HSR Act.

11.8    Attorneys’ Fees. Should suit be brought to enforce or interpret any part of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover, as an element of the costs of suit and not as damages, reasonable attorneys’ fees to be fixed by the court (including costs, expenses and fees on any appeal). The prevailing party shall be entitled to recover its costs of suit, regardless of whether such suit proceeds to final judgment.

11.9    Notices. All notices and other communications required or permitted under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be either hand delivered in person, sent by facsimile, sent by electronic mail, sent by certified or registered first-class mail, postage pre-paid, or sent by nationally recognized express courier service. Such notices and other communications shall be effective upon receipt if hand delivered or sent during normal business hours by facsimile or electronic mail (effective as of the delivery of the facsimile confirmation), three Business Days after mailing if sent by mail, and one Business Day after dispatch if sent by express courier or after receipt if not sent during normal business hours by facsimile or electronic mail, to the following addresses, or such other addresses as any party may notify the other parties in accordance with this Section 11.9:

11.10    Waiver of Jury Trial. Each party hereto acknowledges and agrees that any controversy which may arise under this Agreement is likely to involve complicated and difficult issues, and therefore each such party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right such party may have to a trial by jury in respect of any litigation directly or indirectly arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each party hereto certifies and acknowledges that (a) no representative, agent or attorney of any other party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver, (b) each such party understands and has considered the implications of this waiver, (c) each such party makes this waiver voluntarily, and (d) each such party has been induced to enter into this Agreement by, among other things, the waivers and certifications in this Section 11.10.

11.11    Interpretation; Rules of Construction. The terms “hereof,” “herein” and similar terms refer to this Agreement as a whole (including the Company Disclosure Letter and the Exhibits and Schedules hereto), and when a reference is made in this Agreement to Exhibits, Schedules, Sections or Articles, such reference shall be to an Exhibit or Schedule to, Section of or Article of this Agreement, respectively, unless otherwise indicated. The words “include,” “includes” and “including” when used herein shall be deemed in each case to be followed by the words “without limitation.” When a reference is made to a specific Law, act or statute, such reference shall include any regulations promulgated thereunder. Any agreement, instrument or statute defined or referred to herein means such agreement, instrument, or statute, in each case, as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented (in the case of agreements or instruments, if permitted under this Agreement), including (in the case of agreements or instruments) by waiver or consent and (in the case of statutes) by succession or comparable successor statutes. The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. The terms defined herein have the meanings assigned to them in this Agreement and include plural as well as the singular. Pronouns of either gender or neuter shall include, as appropriate, the other pronoun forms. Unless stated otherwise, the terms “dollars” and “$” shall mean United States dollars. The parties hereto agree that they have been represented by legal counsel during the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and, therefore, waive the application of any Law, regulation, holding or rule of construction providing that ambiguities in an agreement or other document shall be construed against the party drafting such agreement or document. When calculating the period of time before which, within which or following which any act is to be done or step taken pursuant to this Agreement, the date that is the reference date in calculating such period shall be excluded. If the last day of such period is a non-Business Day, the period in question shall end on the next succeeding Business Day.

11.12    Third-Party Beneficiary Rights. No provisions of this Agreement are intended, nor shall be interpreted, to provide or create any third party beneficiary rights or any other rights of any kind in any client, customer, employee, Affiliate, stockholder, partner or any party hereto or any other Person unless specifically provided otherwise herein and, except as so provided, all provisions hereof shall be personal solely between the parties to this Agreement; provided that Section 6.4 is intended to benefit the Company Indemnified Parties and Article 9 is intended to benefit the Parent Indemnified Persons and the Securityholder Indemnified Persons.

11.13    Public Announcement. Parent may issue such press releases, and make such other disclosures regarding the Merger, as it determines are required under applicable securities Laws or regulatory rules or as it deems otherwise appropriate; provided that, to the extent reasonably practicable, Parent shall consult with the Company prior to issuing any such press release or making any such disclosures regarding the Merger. The Company shall not make any public announcement relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby without Parent’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

11.14    Confidentiality.

(a)    The Company and Parent hereby amend the ninth paragraph of the Confidentiality Agreement in its entirety to read as follows:

“This Agreement shall expire on the earlier of (a) the closing of the merger contemplated by that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger among Vonage Holdings Corp., Thunder Acquisition Corp., Telesphere Networks Ltd., and each of John Chapple and Gary O’Malley, collectively as the Representative, dated as of November 4, 2014 (the “Merger Agreement”) and (b) one year from the date of the Merger Agreement, provided that the confidentiality and non-disclosure obligations of the Receiving Party shall survive the expiration of this Agreement, and provided, further, that such expiration shall not relieve any party from liability for breach of this Agreement occurring before such expiration.”

(b)    From and after the Closing, the restrictions on the use and disclosure of Evaluation Material (as such term is defined in the Confidentiality Agreement) set forth in the Confidentiality Agreement shall not apply to Parent or its Affiliates and their respective Representatives (as such term is defined in the Confidentiality Agreement) with respect to any information relating to the Company Business.

(c)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Confidentiality Agreement or any Company Ancillary Agreement, after the Closing: (i) all Evaluation Material included in the Company Intellectual Property Rights or embodied in the Company Technology and Company Intellectual Property Rights that are not owned by a third Person shall be the confidential information of Parent (and not of the Acquired Companies or any of their Affiliates) for purposes of the Confidentiality Agreement, regardless of whether such Evaluation Material or Technology were identified or otherwise designated as “confidential,” and (ii) Parent shall be considered the “Company” under the Confidentiality Agreement and the Acquired Companies and any of their Affiliates who have had access to Evaluation Material included in the Company Intellectual Property Rights or embodied in the Company Technology or Company Intellectual Property Rights that are not owned by a third Person shall be considered the “Receiving Party” under the Confidentiality Agreement. The Acquired Companies and any of their Affiliates who have had or will have access to such Evaluation Material or Technology shall be bound by the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement, and, for the avoidance of doubt, Parent shall have no obligations under the Confidentiality Agreement with respect to such Evaluation Material or Technology.

(d)    The parties agree to continue to abide by the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement, as amended pursuant to this Section 11.14. The Representative agrees to hold this Agreement and each document contemplated hereby in confidence and not disclose the terms of thereof or the transactions contemplated thereby to any third party.

11.15    Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Exhibits and Schedules hereto, the Company Ancillary Agreements, the Company Disclosure Letter, the Parent Ancillary Agreements, the Confidentiality Agreement and the Merger Sub Ancillary Agreements constitute the entire understanding and agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior and contemporaneous agreements or understandings, inducements or conditions, express or implied, written or oral, between the parties with respect hereto or thereto. The express terms hereof control and supersede any course of performance or usage of the trade inconsistent with any of the terms hereof.
