(c) each share of Company Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled without any conversion thereof and no payment or distribution shall be made with respect thereto; and

(d) each share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Merger Sub I issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall no longer be outstanding and shall thereupon be converted into and become one validly issued fully paid and non-assessable share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Surviving Corporation, and all such shares shall constitute the only outstanding shares of capital stock of the Surviving Corporation as of immediately following the Effective Time.

Section 2.5 Delivery of the Merger Consideration.

(a) At or prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit, or shall cause to be deposited, with the Exchange Agent, in trust for the benefit of the Company Stockholders, evidence of book-entry shares representing a number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the aggregate Parent Common Stock deliverable to the Company Stockholders pursuant to this Section 2.5(a) (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall exclude the Earnout Consideration unless and until issuable in accordance with Section 2.10). Any such amounts or shares of Parent Common Stock in book-entry form deposited with the Exchange Agent shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Exchange Agent Fund”. The Exchange Agent Fund shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement and the Exchange Agent Agreement. Subject to Section 2.6, at the Closing, Parent shall cause to be issued or paid from the Exchange Agent Fund to each Company Stockholder that holds Company Common Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time (including holders of shares of Company Common Stock resulting from the conversion of Company Convertible Debt described in Section 2.7 and holders of shares of Company Common Stock resulting from the exercise of Company Warrants pursuant to Section 2.9 (if any), but excluding any Company Dissenting Shares and shares of Company Common Stock to be cancelled pursuant to Section 2.3(c)) who has delivered to the Exchange Agent, at least three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, a completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal, evidence of book-entry shares representing the number of whole shares of the aggregate Parent Common Stock in respect of such Company Common Stock held by such Company Stockholder (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall exclude the Earnout Consideration unless and until issuable in accordance with Section 2.10). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, under no circumstances shall Parent be required to pay or issue to any Equity Holder or any other Person more than the aggregate amount of the Merger Consideration as allocated in accordance with this Section 2.5.

(b) Subject to Section 2.6, at the Closing, Parent shall cause to be paid, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, to the bank account designated in writing by each Company Stockholder that holds Company Common Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time (excluding shares of Company Common Stock resulting from the conversion of Company Convertible Debt described in Section 2.7, shares of Company Common Stock resulting from the exercise of the Company Warrants described in Section 2.9 (if any), shares of Company Common Stock issuable upon settlement of Company RSUs, shares of Company Common Stock that are Company Restricted Stock, any Company Dissenting Shares and shares of Company Common Stock to be cancelled pursuant to Section 2.3(c)) who has delivered to the Exchange Agent, at least three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, a completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal, the Per Share Cash Consideration for each share of Company Common Stock (excluding shares of Company Common Stock resulting from the conversion of Company Convertible Debt described in Section 2.7, shares of Company Common Stock resulting from the exercise of the Company Warrants described in Section 2.9 (if any), shares of Company Common Stock issuable upon settlement of Company RSUs, shares of Company Common Stock that are Company Restricted Stock, any Company Dissenting Shares and shares of Company Common Stock to be cancelled pursuant to Section 2.3(c)) held by such Company Stockholder as of the Effective Time.

Section 2.6 Exchange Procedures for Company Stockholders.

(a) Exchange Agent. As promptly as reasonably practicable following the date of this Agreement, but in no event later than fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Parent shall appoint Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (or its applicable Affiliate) as an exchange agent (the “Exchange Agent”) and enter into an exchange agent agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Company and Parent (the “Exchange Agent Agreement”).

(b) Issuance and Payment Procedures. Not less than fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall mail or otherwise deliver, or shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail or otherwise deliver, to each Company Stockholder entitled to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.3(a), a letter of transmittal in substantially the form of Exhibit I attached hereto, with such changes as may be agreed between the Company and Parent prior to the Closing or as may be reasonably required by the Exchange Agent (the “Letter of Transmittal”), together with any notice required pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL. Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions in Article VI, in the event that at least three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, a Company Stockholder does not deliver to the Exchange Agent a duly executed and completed Letter of Transmittal, then such failure shall not alter, limit or delay the Closing; provided, that such Company Stockholder shall not be entitled to receive its respective portion of the Merger Consideration until such Person delivers a duly executed and completed Letter of Transmittal to the Exchange Agent. Upon delivery of such duly executed Letter of Transmittal by such Company Stockholder to the Exchange Agent, such Company Stockholder shall be entitled to receive, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the portion of the Merger Consideration and the contingent right to receive, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the portion of Earnout Shares (which number of shares may be zero (0)), in each case in respect of his, her or its shares of Company Common Stock referenced in such Letter of Transmittal. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.6, each share of Company Common Stock (including shares of Company Common Stock resulting from the conversion of

Company Convertible Debt described in Section 2.7 and shares of Company Common Stock resulting from the exercise of the Company Warrants described in Section 2.9 (if any)) shall be deemed at all times after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender the Per Share Merger Consideration and contingent right to receive a number of Earnout Shares (which number of shares may be zero (0)) following the Closing pursuant to Section 2.10, to which it has been converted pursuant to this Section 2.6(b). If issuance or payment is to be made to a Person (other than the record or registered Company Stockholder), it shall be a condition to such issuance that the Person requesting such issuance shall deliver any transfer instrument or other document necessary or requested by the Exchange Agent, Parent or the Company to effect such issuance, pay to the Exchange Agent any transfer or other Taxes required as a result of such issuance being made to a Person (other than the record or registered Company Stockholder) or establish to the satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such Tax has been paid or is not payable.

(c) No Further Rights. Except for the contingent right to receive the Earnout Consideration, the Merger Consideration issued and paid upon the surrender of Company Common Stock in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.6 shall be deemed to have been exchanged and paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the securities represented by such Company Common Stock (including Company Common Stock resulting from the conversion of Company Convertible Debt described in Section 2.7 and shares of Company Common Stock resulting from the exercise of the Company Warrants described in Section 2.9 (if any)), and there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Company of the shares of Company Common Stock that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. From and after the Effective Time, holders of Company Common Stock (including Company Common Stock resulting from the conversion of Company Convertible Debt described in Section 2.7 and shares of Company Common Stock resulting from the exercise of the Company Warrants described in Section 2.9 (if any)) shall cease to have any rights as stockholders of the Company, except as expressly provided in this Agreement or by applicable Law.

(d) Equitable Adjustment. If, between the date of this Agreement and the Closing, the outstanding shares of Company Common Stock or Parent Common Stock shall have been changed into a different number of shares or a different class, by reason of any dividend, subdivision, reclassification, recapitalization, split, combination or exchange, or any similar event shall have occurred (including any of the foregoing in connection with the Domestication), then any number, value (including dollar value) or amount contained herein which is based upon the number of shares of Company Common Stock or Parent Common Stock shall be equitably adjusted to reflect such change; provided, that this Section 2.6(d) shall not be construed to permit Parent, the Merger Subs or the Company to take any action with respect to their respective securities that is prohibited by the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

(e) Dividends. No dividends or other distributions declared with respect to shares of Parent Common Stock, the record date for which is at or after the Effective Time, shall be paid to any Company Stockholder that has not delivered a properly completed, duly executed Letter of Transmittal, to the Exchange Agent. After the delivery of such materials, such Company Stockholder shall be entitled to receive any such dividends or other distributions, without any interest thereon, which had become payable with respect to shares of Parent Common Stock issuable to such Company Stockholder.

(f) Company Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, any Company Dissenting Share shall not be converted into the right to receive its applicable portion of the Merger Consideration or Per Share Merger Consideration but shall instead be converted into the right to receive such consideration as may be determined to be due with

respect to any such Company Dissenting Share pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL. Each holder of Company Dissenting Shares who, pursuant to the DGCL, becomes entitled to payment thereunder for such shares shall receive payment therefor in accordance with the DGCL (but only after the value therefor shall have been agreed upon or finally determined pursuant to the DGCL). If, after the Effective Time, any Company Dissenting Share shall lose its status as a Company Dissenting Share, then any such share shall immediately be converted into the right to receive its Per Share Merger Consideration as if such share never had been a Company Dissenting Share, and Parent shall deliver, or cause to be delivered in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, to the holder thereof, following the satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 2.5, and this Section 2.6, its Per Share Merger Consideration as if such share had never been a Company Dissenting Share. The Company shall give Parent (a) prompt written notice of any demands for appraisal received by the Company, withdrawals of such demands, and any other instruments served pursuant to the DGCL and received by the Company, and (b) the right to direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to demands for appraisal under the DGCL. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), voluntarily make any payment or offer to make any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, any claim or demand with respect to any Company Dissenting Share. The Company shall, or shall cause its Affiliates to, enforce any contractual waivers that the Equity Holders have granted regarding appraisal rights that would apply to the Mergers.

Section 2.7 Conversion of Company Convertible Debt. As of immediately prior to the Effective Time, pursuant to the terms of the Company Convertible Debt, the outstanding principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, the Company Convertible Debt shall, without the requirement of any other election or action by the Company or holder thereof, be automatically and fully converted by virtue of the occurrence of the First Merger into the number of shares of Company Common Stock in accordance with the terms of the Company Convertible Debt and such Company Convertible Debt (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the outstanding principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, such Company Convertible Debt) shall be cancelled and eligible for the consideration set forth in Section 2.3 based upon the number of shares of Company Common Stock into which such Company Convertible Debt was automatically converted.

Section 2.8 Company RSUs. Effective as of the Effective Time, each Company RSU that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether or not then vested, will be assumed by Parent and will be converted into a restricted stock unit (a “Parent RSU”) covering shares of Parent Common Stock in accordance with this Section 2.8. Each such Parent RSU as so assumed and converted will continue to have, and will be subject to, the same terms and conditions as applied to the Company RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time (but taking into account any changes thereto provided for in the applicable Equity Incentive Plan, in any award agreement or in such Company RSU by reason of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement). As of the Effective Time, each such Parent RSU as so assumed and converted will be for that number of shares of Parent Common Stock determined by multiplying (i) the number of shares of the Company Common Stock subject to such Company RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time by (ii) Per Share Stock Consideration, which product will be rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares. As of the Effective Time, all Company RSUs will no longer be outstanding and each holder of Parent RSUs will cease to have any rights with respect to such Company RSUs, except as set forth in this Section 2.8. The Company will take all necessary actions to effect the treatment of Company RSUs as set forth in this Agreement and in accordance with the Equity Incentive Plan and the applicable award agreements.

Section 2.9 Exercise or Assumption of Company Warrants.

(a) Immediately prior to the Effective Time, each Company Warrant shall be issued and outstanding, and immediately following such issuance, if elected by the holder thereof, such Company Warrant shall be exercised for a number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the product of (a) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Warrant multiplied by (b) the Per Share Stock Consideration, which product will be rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares.

(b) At the Effective Time, each Company Warrant that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time (and which is not exercised in accordance with its terms pursuant to Section 2.9(a)) (each, an “Assumed Warrant”) shall automatically, without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be assumed by Parent and converted into a warrant to purchase that number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the product of (1) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Warrant multiplied by (2) the Per Share Stock Consideration, which product will be rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares. Each Assumed Warrant shall otherwise be subject to the same terms and conditions (including as to vesting and exercisability) as were applicable under the respective Company Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that each Assumed Warrant shall have an exercise price per share equal to the quotient (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) obtained by dividing (x) the per share exercise price of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Warrant as of immediately prior to the Effective Time by (y) the Per Share Stock Consideration.

Section 2.10 Earnout Shares. After the Closing, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Earnout Company Stockholders, shall have the contingent right to receive consideration for the First Merger from Parent to the extent the requirements as set forth in this Section 2.10 are met.

(a) If, at any time on or prior to the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Closing Date, the Parent Common Stock Price is greater than or equal to $13.00 for any twenty (20) Trading Days within any thirty (30) consecutive Trading Day period (such time when the foregoing is first satisfied, the “$13.00 Earnout Milestone”), then, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Earnout Company Stockholders shall be entitled to receive from Parent, as Merger Consideration for the transactions contemplated hereby, an additional 833,333 shares of Parent Common Stock (subject to equitable adjustment for share splits, share dividends, combinations, recapitalizations and the like after the date of this Agreement, including to account for any equity securities into which such shares are exchanged or converted, other than in respect of the transactions contemplated by the Domestication) (such number of shares issuable pursuant to this Section 2.10(a) being referred to as, the “$13.00 Earnout Shares”) shall be issued by Parent to the Earnout Company Stockholders in accordance with their respective Earnout Pro Rata Portion of the $13.00 Earnout Shares, as soon as commercially practicable but in no event later than five (5) Business Days following the final day of the applicable twenty (20) Trading Day period; provided, that the $13.00 Earnout Shares issued in respect of shares of Parent Common Stock and Parent RSUs, in either case, that are subject to vesting or substantial risk of forfeiture (within the meaning of Section 83 of the Code) shall be subject to such same vesting or substantial risk of forfeiture in accordance with their terms;

(b) If, at any time on or prior to the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Closing Date, the Parent Common Stock Price is greater than or equal to $15.00 for any twenty (20) Trading Days within any thirty (30) consecutive Trading Day period (such time when the foregoing is first satisfied, the “$15.00 Earnout Milestone”), then, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Earnout Company Stockholders shall be entitled to receive from Parent, as Merger Consideration for the transactions contemplated hereby, an additional 833,333 shares of Parent Common Stock (subject to equitable adjustment for share splits, share dividends, combinations,

(c) If, at any time on or prior to the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Closing Date, the Parent Common Stock Price is greater than or equal to $17.00 for any twenty (20) Trading Days within any thirty (30) consecutive Trading Day period (such time when the foregoing is first satisfied, the “$17.00 Earnout Milestone” and together with the $13.00 Earnout Milestone and the $15.00 Earnout Milestone, the “Milestones”), then, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Earnout Company Stockholders shall be entitled to receive from Parent, as Merger Consideration for the transactions contemplated hereby, an additional 833,334 shares of Parent Common Stock (subject to equitable adjustment for share splits, share dividends, combinations, recapitalizations and the like after the date of this Agreement, including to account for any equity securities into which such shares are exchanged or converted, other than in respect of the transactions contemplated by the Domestication) (such number of shares issuable pursuant to this Section 2.10(c) being referred to as, the “$17.00 Earnout Shares” and together with the $13.00 Earnout Shares and $15.00 Earnout Shares, the “Earnout Shares”) shall be issued by Parent to the Earnout Company Stockholders in accordance with their respective Earnout Pro Rata Portion of the $17.00 Earnout Shares, as soon as commercially practicable but in no event later than five (5) Business Days following the final day of the applicable twenty (20) Trading Day period; provided, that the $17.00 Earnout Shares issued in respect of shares of Parent Common Stock and Parent RSUs, in either case, that are subject to vesting or substantial risk of forfeiture (within the meaning of Section 83 of the Code) shall be subject to such same vesting or substantial risk of forfeiture in accordance with their terms.

(d) For the avoidance of doubt, if the condition for more than one Milestone is achieved, the Earnout Shares to be earned in connection with such Milestone shall be cumulative with any Earnout Shares earned prior to such time in connection with the achievement of any other Milestone; provided, that, for avoidance of doubt, Earnout Shares in respect of each Milestone shall be issued and earned only once and the aggregate Earnout Shares issued shall in no event exceed 2,500,000 shares of Parent Common Stock.

(e) If, following the Closing and on or prior to the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Closing Date, a Change of Control is consummated, and the implied consideration per share of the Parent Common Stock in such Change of Control transaction (or the equivalent fair market value thereof, as determined by Parent in good faith, in the event of any non-cash consideration) equals or exceeds a Milestone (an “Acceleration Event”), then, immediately prior to the consummation of such Change of Control and to the extent not already issued pursuant to this Section 2.10, (i) any such Milestone that has not previously occurred shall be deemed to have occurred, and (ii) Parent will issue the applicable Earnout Shares to the Earnout Company Stockholders (in accordance with their respective Earnout Pro Rata Share), and the Earnout Company Stockholders shall be eligible to participate in such Change of Control with respect to such Earnout Shares.

(f) If, at or following the five (5)-year anniversary of the Closing Date, any of the Milestones has not occurred, including in connection with an Acceleration Event, the Earnout Shares issuable with respect to the applicable Milestone shall not be issued. For the avoidance of doubt, following the date of the five (5)-year anniversary of the Closing Date, the Company shall have no obligations under this Section 2.10 with respect to the issuance of any Earnout Shares.

(g) Any issuance of Earnout Shares, including any issuance of Earnout Shares made upon the occurrence of an Acceleration Event pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall be treated as an adjustment to the Per Share Merger Consideration with respect to each such Earnout Company Stockholder by the parties hereto for Tax purposes and not treated as “other property” within the meaning of Section 356 of the Code, unless otherwise required by applicable law as a result of a “determination” (within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code).

Section 2.11 Withholding Rights. Each of Parent, the Surviving Company and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to such payment under all applicable Laws; provided, that if Parent, Surviving Company or any of their respective Affiliates, or any Person acting on their behalf, determines that any payment pursuant to this Agreement is subject to deduction and/or withholding (other than with respect to compensatory amounts or as a result of the failure by any Person to provide the documentation described in Section 5.8(f) or Section 5.8(g)), then Parent will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide notice to the relevant payee as soon as is reasonably practicable after such determination. To the extent that Parent, the Surviving Company or the Exchange Agent withholds such amounts with respect to any Person and timely remits such withheld amounts to a taxing authority, such amounts will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction, withholding and remittance was made.

applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and other similar Laws affecting the enforceability of creditors’ rights generally, general equitable principles and the discretion of courts in granting equitable remedies.

Section 9.3 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of Law or public policy, all other terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

Section 9.4 Binding Effect; Assignment. This Agreement and all of the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned, directly or indirectly, including by operation of law, by any Party without the prior written consent of the

other Party; provided, that each of Parent, Merger Sub I and Merger Sub II shall be permitted, without the consent of the Company, to make a collateral assignment to any lender (or agent thereof) providing any debt financing or to make an assignment of any or all of its rights and interests hereunder to one or more of its Affiliates or cause one or more of its Affiliates to perform its obligations hereunder; provided, further, that, notwithstanding any such assignment, each of Parent, Merger Sub I and Merger Sub II shall remain liable and responsible for all of their respective obligations pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 9.5 No Third Party Beneficiaries. Except as otherwise provided in Section 5.9 and Section 9.17, this Agreement is exclusively for the benefit of the Company and its successors and permitted assigns, with respect to the obligations of Parent, Merger Sub I and Merger Sub II under this Agreement, and for the benefit of Parent, Merger Sub and their respective successors and permitted assigns, with respect to the obligations of the Company under this Agreement, and this Agreement shall not be deemed to confer upon or give to any other third party any remedy, claim, liability, reimbursement, cause of action or other right.

Section 9.6 Section Headings; Defined Terms. The Article and Section headings and the words used for defined terms themselves (but not, for the avoidance of doubt, the express definitions thereof) contained in this Agreement are exclusively for the purpose of reference, are not part of the agreement of the Parties and shall not in any way affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

Section 9.7 Consent to Jurisdiction, Etc. Each Party hereby agrees, and any Person asserting rights as a third party beneficiary may do so only if he, she or it irrevocably agrees, that any Legal Dispute shall be brought only to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Delaware or the federal courts located in the State of Delaware, and each Party hereby consents to the jurisdiction of such courts (and of the appropriate appellate courts therefrom) in any such Action and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such Action in any such court or that any such Action that is brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. During the period a Legal Dispute that is filed in accordance with this Section 9.7 is pending before a court, all Actions with respect to such Legal Dispute or any other Legal Dispute, including any counterclaim, cross-claim or interpleader, shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of such court. Each Party hereby waives, and any Person asserting rights as a third party beneficiary may do so only if he, she or it hereby waives, and shall not assert as a defense in any Legal Dispute, that (a) such Party is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above named courts for any reason, (b) such Action may not be brought or is not maintainable in such court, (c) such Party’s property is exempt or immune from execution, (d) such Action is brought in an inconvenient forum, or (e) the venue of such Action is improper. A final judgment in any Action described in this Section 9.7 following the expiration of any period permitted for appeal and subject to any stay during appeal shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by applicable Laws. EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, AND ANY PERSON ASSERTING RIGHTS AS A THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARY MAY DO SO ONLY IF HE, SHE OR IT IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY ON ANY CLAIMS OR COUNTERCLAIMS ASSERTED IN ANY LEGAL DISPUTE RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM RELATING THERETO. IF THE SUBJECT MATTER OF ANY SUCH LEGAL DISPUTE IS ONE IN WHICH THE WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL IS PROHIBITED, NO PARTY NOR ANY PERSON ASSERTING RIGHTS AS A THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARY SHALL ASSERT IN SUCH LEGAL DISPUTE A NONCOMPULSORY COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. FURTHERMORE, NO PARTY NOR ANY PERSON ASSERTING RIGHTS AS A THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARY SHALL SEEK TO CONSOLIDATE ANY SUCH LEGAL DISPUTE WITH A SEPARATE ACTION OR OTHER LEGAL PROCEEDING IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL CANNOT BE WAIVED.

Section 9.8 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the Schedules and Exhibits attached hereto) and the Ancillary Agreements constitute the entire agreement among the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersede all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement including, without limitation, that certain letter of intent dated as of March 22, 2021. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that, in entering into this Agreement, such Party has not relied on any promises or assurances, written or oral, that are not reflected in this Agreement (including the Schedules and Exhibits attached hereto) or the Ancillary Agreements.

Section 9.9 No Strict Construction. Notwithstanding the fact that this Agreement has been drafted or prepared by one of the Parties, each of Parent, Merger Sub I, Merger Sub II and the Company confirm that they and their respective counsel have reviewed, negotiated and adopted this Agreement as the joint agreement and understanding of the Parties and the language used in this Agreement shall be deemed to be the language chosen by the Parties to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction shall be applied against any Person. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises with respect to this Agreement, the terms and provisions of the execution version of this Agreement shall control and prior drafts of this Agreement shall not be considered or analyzed for any purpose (including in support of parol evidence proffered by any Person in connection with this Agreement).

Section 9.10 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware (regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of laws thereof) as to all matters (including Actions related hereto), including matters of validity, construction, effect, performance and remedies.

Section 9.11 Specific Performance. Each of the Parties agrees that irreparable damage may occur for which monetary damages, even if available, may not be an adequate remedy in the event that the Parties do not perform their obligations under the provisions of this Agreement in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. Each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that Parent and the Company shall therefore be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions, specific performance or other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any action instituted in any court in the United States or in any state or province having jurisdiction over the Parties and the matter in addition to any other remedy to which they may be entitled pursuant hereto, and that such explicit rights of specific enforcement are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and without such rights, none of Parent, Merger Sub or the Company would have entered into this Agreement. Each of the Parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that the other Parties have an adequate monetary or other remedy at law. Each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that if either Parent or the Company seeks an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement or to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, neither Parent nor the Company shall be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction.

Section 9.13 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by facsimile or e-mail shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of the Agreement. Minor variations in the form of the signature page, including footers from earlier versions of this Agreement or any such other document, will be disregarded in determining a Party’s intent or the effectiveness of such signature.
