AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER AND REORGANIZATION

AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER AND REORGANIZATION (this “Agreement”), dated as of February 12, 2020, by and among PENINSULA ACQUISITION CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (the “Parent”), PENINSULA ACQUISITION SUB, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Acquisition Subsidiary”), and TRANSPHORM, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”). The Parent, the Acquisition Subsidiary and the Company are each a “Party” and referred to collectively herein as the “Parties.”

WHEREAS, this Agreement contemplates a merger of the Acquisition Subsidiary with and into the Company, with the Company remaining as the surviving entity after the merger (the “Merger”), whereby the stockholders of the Company will receive Parent Common Stock (as defined below) in exchange for their capital stock of the Company;

WHEREAS, immediately following the Merger, the Parent will complete a private placement offering (the “Private Placement Offering”) of a minimum of 5,000,000 shares of the Parent’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Parent Common Stock”), at a purchase price of $4.00 per share (the “Purchase Price”), upon the terms and subject to the conditions of subscription agreements in a form reasonably acceptable to the Parent and the Company;

WHEREAS, as inducement to the Company’s willingness to enter into this Agreement, contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the parties hereto, certain stockholders of the Parent prior to the Merger have entered into forfeiture letters with the Parent (the “Forfeiture Letters”), to be effective only upon the Effective Time (as defined below), pursuant to which an aggregate of 682,699 shares of Parent Common Stock (the “Forfeited Shares”) will be forfeited and cancelled immediately prior to the Effective Time; and

WHEREAS, the Parties intend for the Merger to qualify as a “reorganization” under Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and that this Agreement constitutes a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Sections 1.368-2(g) and 1.368-3(a) of the United States Treasury Regulations.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the representations, warranties and covenants herein contained, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt, adequacy and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereto, intending legally to be bound, agree as follows:

ARTICLE 1

THE MERGER

1.1 The Merger. Upon and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Acquisition Subsidiary shall merge with and into the Company at the Effective Time (as defined below). From and after the Effective Time, the separate corporate existence of the Acquisition Subsidiary shall cease and the Company shall continue as the surviving corporation in the Merger (the “Surviving Corporation”). The “Effective Time” shall be the

time at which a certificate of merger in proper form and duly executed, reflecting the Merger (the “Certificate of Merger”) pursuant to Section 251(c) of General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (such General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, the “Delaware Act”) is filed with and accepted by the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. The Merger shall have the effects set forth herein and in the applicable provisions of the Delaware Act. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, at the Effective Time, except as provided herein, all the property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Company and the Acquisition Subsidiary shall vest in the Surviving Corporation, and all debts, liabilities and duties of the Company and Acquisition Subsidiary shall become the debts, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Corporation. The Parent, the Company and the Acquisition Subsidiary, respectively, shall each use its best efforts to take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the Merger in accordance with the Delaware Act.

1.2 The Closing. The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall take place remotely, via electronic exchange of documents, simultaneous with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, or, if all of the conditions to the obligations of the Parties to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby have not been satisfied or waived by such date, on such mutually agreeable later date as soon as practicable after the satisfaction or waiver of all conditions (excluding the delivery of any documents to be delivered at the Closing by any of the Parties) set forth in Article 5 hereof (and in any event not later than three Business Days thereafter) (the date of such Closing, the “Closing Date”). As used in this Agreement, the term “Business Day” means any day other than a Saturday, a Sunday or a day on which banks in the state of New York are required or authorized by applicable Law to close.

1.3 Actions at the Closing. At the Closing:

(a) the Company shall deliver to the Parent and the Acquisition Subsidiary the various certificates, instruments and documents to be delivered by the Company pursuant to Sections 5.1 and 5.2;

(b) the Parent and the Acquisition Subsidiary shall deliver to the Company the various certificates, instruments and documents to be delivered by the Parent and/or Acquisition Subsidiary pursuant to Sections 5.1 and 5.3; and

(c) the Parties will cause the Certificate of Merger to be filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware in accordance with the Delaware Act.

1.4 Additional Actions. If at any time after the Effective Time the Surviving Corporation or the Parent shall consider or be advised that any deeds, bills of sale, assignments or assurances or any other acts or things are necessary, desirable or proper (a) to vest, perfect or confirm, of record or otherwise, in the Surviving Corporation its right, title or interest in, to or under any of the rights, privileges, powers, franchises, properties or assets of either the Company or the Acquisition Subsidiary or (b) otherwise to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, the Surviving Corporation, the Parent and its officers and directors or their designees shall be authorized (to the fullest extent allowed under applicable Law) to execute and deliver, in the name and on behalf of either the Company, the Parent or the Acquisition Subsidiary, all such

deeds, bills of sale, assignments and assurances and do, in the name and on behalf of the Company, the Parent or the Acquisition Subsidiary, all such other acts and things necessary, desirable or proper to vest, perfect or confirm its right, title or interest in, to or under any of the rights, privileges, powers, franchises, properties or assets of the Company, the Parent or the Acquisition Subsidiary, as applicable, and otherwise to carry out the purposes of this Agreement.

1.5 Conversion of Company Securities. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any Party or the holder of any of the following securities:

(a) Each share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (“Company Common Stock”), each share of Series 2 Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (“Series 2 Preferred Stock”), and each share of Series 3 Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (“Series 3 Preferred Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Dissenting Shares (as defined below) and shares of Company Stock (as defined below) held by Unaccredited Investors (as defined below)), shall cease to be an existing share of Company Stock and shall be converted into and represent the right to receive such number of shares of Parent Common Stock as is equal to the applicable “Conversion Ratio” set forth on Schedule 1.5(a) hereto such that the post-Merger capitalization structure of the Parent shall be as set forth in Exhibit A. Each share of Series 1 Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (the “Series 1 Preferred Stock” and together with the Series 2 Preferred Stock and the Series 3 Preferred Stock, the “Company Preferred Stock” and the Company Preferred Stock together with the Company Common Stock, the “Company Stock”), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Dissenting Shares and shares held by Unaccredited Investors) shall be treated as if each such share had been converted into a share of Company Common Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time in accordance with the Company’s certificate of incorporation. An aggregate of a maximum number of 31,250,000 shares of Parent Common Stock, subject to (x) adjustment as necessary due to rounding as set forth in Section 1.7 and (y) Section 1.5(c), shall be issuable in respect of the shares of Company Stock held by the stockholders of record of the Company (including Dissenting Shares, shares of Parent Common Stock issuable upon exercise of Parent Warrants (as defined below), and shares of Parent Common Stock issuable upon the conversation of the Convertible Note (as defined below)) as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Company Stockholders”). The shares of Parent Common Stock into which the shares of Company Common Stock are converted pursuant to this Section shall be referred to herein as the “Merger Shares.” The Merger Shares shall be adjusted to reflect appropriately the effect of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Parent Common Stock), reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or other like change with respect to Parent Common Stock occurring or having a record date on or after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time.

(b) After the Effective Time, the Parent’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”) shall issue certificates (which, for all purposes in this Agreement, may be book-entry security entitlements representing shares of Parent Common Stock) evidencing the Merger

Shares to each Company Stockholder who has surrendered a certificate that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented Company Stock to be converted into such Merger Shares pursuant to this Section 1.5 (the “Company Stock Certificates”). If any Company Stock Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, the Transfer Agent may, in its sole discretion and as a condition to the issuance of any certificates representing Merger Shares, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed Company Stock Certificate to provide an appropriate affidavit with respect to such Company Stock Certificate.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, each issued and outstanding share of Company Stock held by Unaccredited Investors (other than Dissenting Shares) shall cease to be an existing share of Company Stock and shall be converted into the right to receive a cash payment equal to $4.00 multiplied by the applicable Conversation Ratio set forth on Schedule 1.5(a) hereto. “Unaccredited Investor” shall mean a Company Stockholder who does not complete and deliver to the Company and Parent no later than five (5) calendar days after the Closing Date an investor questionnaire reasonably acceptable to the Company and the Parent certifying that such Company Stockholder is an “accredited investor” or not a “U.S. Person” as such terms are defined in Regulation D and Regulation S, respectively, under the Securities Act; provided that the Company and the Parent may determine any Company Stockholder is an “accredited investor” without having received such an investor questionnaire if they reasonably believe that such Company Stockholder qualifies as an “accredited investor.”

(d) Each issued and outstanding share of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Acquisition Subsidiary shall be converted into one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation.

1.6 Dissenting Shares.

(a) For purposes of this Agreement, “Dissenting Shares” means shares of Company Stock held as of the Effective Time by a Company Stockholder who has not voted such Company Stock in favor of the adoption of this Agreement and the Merger and with respect to which appraisal shall have been duly demanded and perfected in accordance with Section 262 of the Delaware Act and not effectively withdrawn or forfeited prior to the Effective Time. Dissenting Shares shall not be converted into or represent the right to receive shares of Parent Common Stock unless such Company Stockholder’s right to appraisal shall have ceased in accordance with the Delaware Act. If such Company Stockholder has so forfeited or withdrawn his, her or its right to appraisal of Dissenting Shares, then (i) as of the occurrence of such event, such holder’s Dissenting Shares shall cease to be Dissenting Shares and shall be converted into and represent the right to receive the Merger Shares issuable in respect of such Company Stock pursuant to Section 1.5(a), and (ii) promptly following the occurrence of such event and, if requested by the Parent, the proper surrender of such person’s Company Stock Certificate, the Parent shall deliver to such Company Stockholder a certificate representing the Merger Shares to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 1.5(a).

(b) The Company shall give the Parent prompt notice of any written demands for appraisal of any Company Stock, withdrawals of such demands, and any other instruments

that relate to such demands received by the Company. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of the Parent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), make any payment with respect to any demands for appraisal of Company Stock or offer to settle or settle any such demands unless required by the court of the State of Delaware having jurisdiction thereof.

1.7 Fractional Shares. No certificates or scrip representing fractional Merger Shares shall be issued to Company Stockholders on the surrender for exchange of shares of Company Stock, and such Company Stockholders shall not be entitled to any voting rights, rights to receive any dividends or distributions or other rights as a stockholder of the Parent with respect to any fractional Merger Shares that would have otherwise been issued to such Company Stockholders. In lieu of any fractional Merger Shares to which the holder would otherwise be entitled, the Company shall pay the holder cash equal to such fraction multiplied by the Purchase Price.

1.8 Options and Warrants.

(a) As of the Effective Time, all outstanding Company Options (as defined below) that remain unexercised, whether vested or unvested, shall be assumed by the Parent and shall be converted into options to purchase shares of Parent Common Stock (“Parent Options”) without further action by the holder thereof. Each Parent Option as so assumed and converted shall constitute an option to acquire such number of shares of Parent Common Stock as is equal to the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to the outstanding and unexercised portion of the Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, multiplied by the Conversion Ratio for Company Common Stock (with the result rounded down to the nearest whole share of Parent Common Stock). The exercise price per share of each Parent Option as so assumed and converted shall be equal to the exercise price of the Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time divided by the Conversion Ratio (with the result rounded up to the nearest whole cent). Each Parent Option shall otherwise be subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable under the respective Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, provided, that the Board of Directors of the Parent or a committee thereof shall succeed to the authority and responsibility of the Company’s board of directors or any committee thereof with respect to each Company Option assumed by the Parent. It is the intention of the parties that (i) each Parent Option that qualified as an incentive stock option (as defined in Section 422 of the Code) immediately prior to the Effective Time shall continue to so qualify, to the maximum extent permissible, immediately following the Effective Time, and (ii) the number of shares of Parent Common Stock and exercise price per share of Parent Common Stock under each Parent Option shall be determined in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code.

(b) Prior to the Effective Time, Parent and the Company shall take such actions (including adopting any necessary resolutions) as are reasonably necessary to effect the treatment of the Company Options as contemplated by this Section 1.8. At the Effective Time, the Parent shall assume all obligations of the Company under the applicable Company Equity Plan, each outstanding Company Option, and the agreements evidencing the grants thereof, and

shall administer and honor all such awards in accordance with the terms and conditions of such awards and the applicable Company Equity Plan (subject to the adjustments required by reason of this Agreement or such other adjustments or amendments made by the Parent in accordance with such terms and conditions).

(c) As of the Effective Time, each outstanding Company Warrant (as defined below) that is outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective time shall be assumed by Parent and shall be converted into warrants to purchase Parent Common Stock (“Parent Warrants”) without further action by the holder thereof. Accordingly, from and after the Effective Time: (i) each Company Warrant assumed by the Parent may be exercised solely for shares of Parent Common Stock; (ii) the number of shares of Parent Common Stock subject to each Company Warrant assumed by the Parent shall be determined by multiplying (A) the number of shares of Company Common Stock that would have been issuable upon exercise of each such Company Warrant had such Company Warrant been exercised prior to the Effective Time by (B) the Conversion Ratio for Company Common Stock and rounding the resulting number down to the nearest whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock; (iii) the per share exercise price for the Parent Common Stock issuable upon exercise of each Company Warrant assumed by the Parent shall be determined by dividing the per share exercise price of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Warrant, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, by the Conversion Ratio for the Company Common Stock and rounding the resulting exercise price up to the nearest whole cent; and (iv) any restriction on any Company Warrant assumed by the Parent shall continue in full force and effect and the term and other provisions of such Company Warrant shall otherwise remain unchanged.

(d) The Parent shall take all corporate action necessary to reserve for issuance a sufficient number of shares of Parent Common Stock for delivery upon exercise of the Parent Options to be issued for the Company Options, and for delivery upon exercise of the Parent Warrants, in each case, in accordance with this Section 1.8.

1.9 Directors and Officers.

(a) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Parent, Acquisition Subsidiary, the Company or the holders of any shares of capital stock of any of the foregoing, the directors and officers of the Surviving Corporation shall be the directors and officers of the Company as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, each to hold office until the earlier of his/her resignation or removal or until his/her respective successors are duly appointed and qualified, as the case may be, and the Surviving Corporation and the Parent shall take any necessary actions (whether prior to, at or after the Effective Time) as shall be necessary or appropriate to effectuate or carry out the purpose of this Section 1.9.

(b) At or prior to the Closing, the Board of Directors of the Parent shall, subject to compliance with Section 14(f) of the Exchange Act and Rule 14f-1 promulgated thereunder, take the following action, to be effective upon the Effective Time: (i) elect to the Board of Directors of the Parent the persons who were directors of the Company immediately prior to the Closing (other than Xxxxxxx Xxxxx); and (ii) appoint as the officers of the Parent those persons who were the officers of the Company immediately prior to the Closing, or, in

either case with regard to clauses (i) and (ii), such other persons designated by the Company (including any replacement for a director of the Company immediately prior to the Closing who is either unwilling or unable to serve as a director of the Parent upon the Effective Time). All of the persons serving as directors of the Parent immediately prior to the Closing shall resign immediately following the election of the new directors, and all of the persons serving as officers of the Parent immediately prior to the Closing shall resign immediately following the appointment of the new officers, all subject to compliance with Rule 14f-1 promulgated under the Exchange Act. Subject to applicable law, the Parent, with the assistance of the Company, has taken or shall take all action reasonably requested by the Company, but consistent with the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Parent, that is reasonably necessary to effect any such election or appointment of the designees of the Company to the Parent’s Board of Directors, including mailing to the Parent’s stockholders an information statement containing the information required by Section 14(f) of the Exchange Act and Rule 14f-1 promulgated thereunder at least 10 days prior to the Effective Time. The Company has supplied the Parent all information with respect to it and its nominees, officers, directors and Affiliates required by such Section 14(f) and Rule 14f-1.

(c) The provisions of this Section 1.9 are in addition to and shall not limit any rights which the Company or any of its Affiliates may have as a holder or beneficial owner of shares of capital stock of the Parent as a matter of law with respect to the election of directors or otherwise. The newly-appointed directors and officers of the Parent shall hold office for the term specified in, and subject to the provisions contained in, the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Parent and applicable law.

1.10 Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws. The Surviving Corporation or the Parent may make any necessary filings in the State of Delaware as shall be necessary or appropriate to effectuate or carry out fully the purpose of this Section 1.10:

(a) the certificate of incorporation of the Company will be amended and restated at the Effective Time to read in its entirety as set forth on Exhibit B hereto, and, as so amended and restated, will be the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter amended as provided by Delaware law and such certificate of incorporation;

(b) the bylaws of the Acquisition Subsidiary in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation until duly amended or repealed;

(c) the certificate of incorporation of the Parent in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the certificate of incorporation of the Parent until duly amended or repealed; and

(d) the bylaws of the Parent in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the bylaws of the Parent until duly amended or repealed.

1.11 No Further Rights. From and after the Effective Time, no shares of Company Stock shall be deemed to be outstanding, and holders of Company Stock, certificated or uncertificated, shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except as provided herein or by

applicable Law, other than the right to receive Parent Common Stock in connection with the Merger.

1.12 Closing of Transfer Books. At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed and no transfer of Company Stock shall thereafter be made. If, after the Effective Time, Company Stock Certificates are presented to the Parent or the Surviving Corporation, they shall be cancelled and exchanged for Merger Shares in accordance with Section 1.5, subject to the provisions hereof and applicable Law in the case of Dissenting Shares.

1.13 Exemption from Registration; Rule 144; Rule 701.

(a) The Parent and the Company intend that the shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued pursuant to Section 1.5 or upon exercise of Parent Options and Parent Warrants granted pursuant to Section 1.8 hereof, will be issued in a transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act, by reason of Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) thereunder, Regulation S promulgated by the SEC and/or Rule 701 of the Securities Act, and that all recipients of such shares of Parent Common Stock either (i) shall be “accredited investors” or not “U.S. Persons” as such terms are defined in Regulation D and Regulation S, respectively, or (ii) within the meaning of Rule 701 of the Securities Act, were employees or directors of the Company, its parent or its majority-owned subsidiaries or consultants who were natural persons and who provided bona fide services to the Company, its parent or its majority-owned subsidiaries (provided that such services were not in connection with the offer or sale of securities in a capital raising transaction and did not directly or indirectly promote or maintain a market for the Company’s securities), and who received Parent Common Stock or Parent Options pursuant to a compensatory benefit plan, or are family members of employees, directors or consultants who acquired such securities by gift or domestic relations orders. The shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued pursuant to Section 1.5 hereof or upon exercise of Parent Options and Parent Warrants granted pursuant to Section 1.8 hereof, will be “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act and may not be offered, sold, pledged, assigned or otherwise transferred unless (A) a registration statement with respect thereto is effective under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws, or (B) an exemption from such registration exists and either the Parent receives an opinion of counsel from the holder of such securities, which counsel and opinion are satisfactory to the Parent, that such securities may be offered, sold, pledged, assigned or transferred in the manner contemplated without an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or applicable state securities laws, or the holder complies with the requirements of Regulation S, if applicable; and the certificates (or book-entry security entitlements) representing such shares of Parent Common Stock will bear an appropriate legend and restriction on the books of the Parent’s transfer agent to that effect.

(b) The Parent is a “shell company” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The Company acknowledges that pursuant to Rule 144(i), securities issued by a former shell company (such as the Merger Shares) that otherwise meet the holding period and other requirements of Rule 144

nevertheless cannot be sold in reliance on Rule 144 until one year after the Parent (i) is no longer a shell company; and (ii) has filed current “Form 10 information” (as defined in Rule 144(i)) with the SEC reflecting that it is no longer a shell company, and provided that at the time of a proposed sale pursuant to Rule 144, the Parent is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and has filed all reports and other materials required to be filed by section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, as applicable, during the preceding 12 months (or for such shorter period that the issuer was required to file such reports and materials), other than Form 8-K reports. As a result, the restrictive legends on certificates for the Merger Shares cannot be removed except in connection with an actual sale meeting the foregoing requirements or pursuant to an effective registration statement.

1.14 Certain Tax Matters. Each of the Parties shall use its best efforts to cause the Merger to qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code.

Parent Form 10, as filed with the SEC, which contained audited balance sheets of the Parent as of June 30, 2017, and the related statements of operation, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the period from May 31, 2017 (inception) through June 30, 2017; (b) the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2017; (c) the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended December 31, 2017; (d) the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2018; (e) the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2018; (f) the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2018; (g) the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended December 31, 2018; (h) the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2019; (i) the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2019; (j) the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2019; (k) the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended December 31, 2019 and (l) all other reports filed by the Parent under Section 13 or subsections (a) or (c) of Section 14 of the Exchange Act with the SEC (such reports, together with the Parent Previous Filings, are collectively referred to herein as the “Parent Reports”). The Parent Reports constitute all of the documents required to be filed or furnished by the Parent with the SEC, including under Section 13 or subsections (a) or (c) of Section 14 of the Exchange Act. The Parent has timely filed (or has been deemed to have timely filed pursuant to Rule 12b-25 under the Exchange Act) and made publicly available on the SEC’s XXXXX system, and the Company may rely upon, all certifications and statements required by (i) Rule 13a-14 or Rule 15d-14 under the Exchange Act and (ii) Section 906 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002 with respect to any documents filed with the SEC. The Parent is in compliance in all material respects with all of the provisions of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002 which are applicable to it. The Parent Reports complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder when filed. As of the date hereof, there are no outstanding or unresolved comments in comment letters received from the staff of the SEC with respect to any of the Parent Reports. As of their respective dates, the Parent Reports, including any financial statements, schedules or exhibits included or incorporated by reference therein, did not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. None of the Subsidiaries of the Parent is required to file or furnish any forms, reports or other documents with the SEC. No order suspending the effectiveness of any registration statement of the Parent under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act has been issued by the SEC and, to the Parent’s knowledge, no proceedings for that purpose have been initiated or threatened by the SEC. Since the most recent filing of such certifications and statements, there have been no significant changes in the Parent’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act), or in other factors that could significantly affect its disclosure controls and procedures. The Parent has established and maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-14 and 15d-14 under the Exchange Act) and such controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that material information relating to the Parent, including its subsidiaries, is made known to the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer.

8.14 Survival. The representations or warranties in this Agreement and in any certificate delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the Effective Time.

8.15 Construction.

(a) 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 Party.

Notwithstanding anything that may be expressed or implied in this Agreement, any document or instrument delivered in connection herewith, or any other document or agreement, each Party covenants, agrees and acknowledges, that no person or entity other than the Parties have any liabilities, obligations, or commitments (whether known or unknown or whether contingent or otherwise) hereunder, and that each Party has no right of recovery under this Agreement, or any claim based on such liabilities, obligations, or commitments against, and that no personal liability shall attach to, the former, current, or future (i) directors, officers, employees, managers, partners, agents, Affiliates, investors, consultants, advisors, or beneficial owners of any other Party (“Affiliated Persons”), or (ii) directors, officers, employees, managers, partners, agents, Affiliates, investors, consultants, advisors, or beneficial owners of any Affiliated Persons (collectively, but not including the Parties, each a “Non-Recourse Party”), through a Party or otherwise, whether by or through attempted piercing of the corporate veil, or through a claim by or on behalf of any of the Parties against any Non-Recourse Party, by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding, by virtue of any statute, regulation, Law, or otherwise. Without limiting the foregoing, no claim will be brought or maintained by any Party, any of a Party’s Affiliates, or any of their respective successors or permitted assigns against any Non-Recourse Party that is not otherwise expressly identified as a Party to this Agreement, and no recourse will be brought or granted against any of them, by virtue of, or based upon, any alleged misrepresentation or inaccuracy in, or breach or nonperformance of, any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of any Party set forth or contained in this Agreement, including any Exhibit or Schedule hereto, any other document contemplated hereby, or any certificate, instrument, opinion, agreement, or other

document delivered hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing and for the avoidance of doubt, this Section 8.16 shall not be deemed to waive, bar, diminish or otherwise limit, in any manner, any right, power, remedy, claim, request, demand or cause of action (whether at law or equity) that a Party, with respect to itself and any of its Affiliates, may have against any person or entity (a) arising out of or relating to an act of intentional fraud, or (b) with respect to any injunction or other equitable remedies available, with respect to a breach of this Agreement (including specific performance).
