1.3 Effect on Capital Stock, Convertible Notes and Options.

(a) Treatment of Company Capital Stock, Company Options and Company Notes. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, at the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any party hereto, Company Stockholder, Company Optionholder, Company Noteholder or any other Person:

(i) Company Capital Stock. Each share of Company Capital Stock held by a Converting Holder immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Dissenting Shares and shares that are owned by the Company as treasury stock) shall be cancelled and automatically converted into the right to receive, subject to and in accordance with Section 1.4, an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the Common Per Share Consideration. The amount of cash each Converting Holder holding shares of Company Capital Stock is entitled to receive for such shares of Company Capital Stock shall be rounded to the nearest cent and computed after aggregating cash amounts for all shares of Company Capital Stock held by such Converting Holder.

(ii) Company Options. Each Company Option, whether vested or unvested, that is unexpired, unexercised and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be terminated and cancelled at the Effective Time and shall not be assumed by Acquirer, and no Company Option shall be substituted with any equivalent option or right to purchase or otherwise acquire any capital stock or other securities of Acquirer. Upon cancellation thereof, each In the Money Option that is vested and outstanding immediately prior to such cancellation (“Vested In the Money Option”) shall be converted into and represent the right to receive, subject to and in accordance with Section 1.4, an amount in cash, without interest, with respect to each share of Company Common Stock underlying such Vested In the Money Option, equal to the excess of (A) the Common Per Share Consideration over (B) the per share exercise price of such Vested In the Money Option (collectively, the “Option Payments”). The amount of cash each Converting Holder holding Vested In the Money Options is entitled to receive for such Vested In the Money Options shall be rounded to the nearest cent and computed after aggregating cash amounts for all Vested In the Money Options held by such Converting Holder and will be reduced by the employee portion of any applicable payroll, income tax or other withholding taxes. Upon cancellation thereof, no payment shall be made with respect to any Company Option that is not a Vested In the Money Option. The Company shall, prior to the Closing, take or cause to be taken all actions, and shall obtain all consents, as may be required to effect the treatment of Company Options pursuant to this Section 1.3(a)(ii).

(iii) Company Notes. Each Company Note shall, pursuant to the applicable payoff letter to be delivered by the Company in accordance with Section 1.2(b)(xviii), be cancelled and extinguished and shall not be assumed by Acquirer in the Merger.

(iv) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall the aggregate amount of cash to be paid by Acquirer to the Company Securityholders pursuant to this Agreement exceed the Merger Consideration.

(b) Treatment of Company Capital Stock Owned by the Company. At the Effective Time, all shares of Company Capital Stock that are owned by the Company as treasury stock immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled and extinguished without any conversion thereof or payment of any cash or other property or consideration therefor and shall cease to exist.

(c) Treatment of Merger Sub Capital Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Acquirer, Merger Sub or any other Person, each share of capital stock of Merger Sub that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and become one share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation (and the shares of the Surviving Corporation into which the shares of Merger Sub capital stock are so converted shall be the only shares of the Surviving Corporation’s capital stock that are issued and outstanding immediately after the Effective Time). From and after the Effective Time, each certificate evidencing ownership of a number of shares of Merger Sub capital stock will evidence ownership of such number of shares of common stock of the Surviving Corporation.

(d) Adjustments. In the event of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into capital stock), reorganization, reclassification, combination, recapitalization or other like change with respect to the Company Capital Stock occurring after the Agreement Date and prior to the Effective Time, all references herein to specified numbers of shares of any class or series affected thereby, and all calculations provided for that are based upon numbers of shares of any class or series (or trading prices therefor) affected thereby, shall be equitably adjusted to the extent necessary to provide the parties the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, reorganization, reclassification, combination, recapitalization or other like change.

(e) Appraisal Rights. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Dissenting Shares shall not be converted into the right to receive the applicable portion of the 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 Dissenting Shares pursuant to the DGCL. Each holder of 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 such provisions). If, after the Effective Time, any Dissenting Shares shall lose their status as Dissenting Shares, then any such shares shall immediately be deemed to have converted at the Effective Time into the right to receive the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration in respect of such shares as if such shares never had been Dissenting Shares, and Acquirer shall issue and deliver to the holder thereof, at (or as promptly as reasonably practicable after) the applicable time or times specified in Section 1.4(a), following the satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 1.4(a), the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration as if such shares never had been Dissenting Shares. The Company shall provide to Acquirer (i) prompt notice of any demands for appraisal or purchase received by the Company, withdrawals of such demands and any other instruments related to such demands served pursuant to the DGCL and received by the Company and (ii) the right to direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands under the DGCL. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Acquirer, or as otherwise required under the DGCL, voluntarily make any payment or offer to make any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, any claim or demand in respect of any Dissenting Shares. Subject to Section 8.2, the payout of consideration under this Agreement to the Converting Holders (other than in respect of Dissenting Shares, which shall be treated as provided in this Section 1.3(e) and under the DGCL) shall not be affected by the exercise or potential exercise of appraisal rights or dissenters’ rights under the DGCL by any other Company Stockholder.

(f) Rights Not Transferable. The rights of the Company Securityholders under this Agreement as of immediately prior to the Effective Time are personal to each such Company Securityholder and shall not be transferable for any reason, other than by operation of law, will or the laws of descent and distribution without action taken by or on behalf of such Company Securityholder.

Any attempted transfer of such right by any holder thereof (other than as permitted by the immediately preceding sentence) shall be null and void.

(g) No Interest. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no interest shall accumulate on any cash payable in connection with the consummation of the Transactions.

1.4 Payment Procedures.

(a) Surrender of Certificates for Stock.

(i) As soon as reasonably practicable after the Closing, to the extent not previously delivered, Acquirer shall mail, or cause to be mailed, a letter of transmittal in customary form together with instructions for use thereof (the “Letter of Transmittal”) to every holder of record of Company Capital Stock, whether such shares are certificated or in uncertified book-entry form, that was issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. The Letter of Transmittal (A) solely with respect to shares of the Company Capital Stock that are certificated, shall specify that delivery of such certificates that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented issued and outstanding Company Capital Stock (the “Certificates”) shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon receipt thereof by Paying Agent (or, in the case of any lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, compliance with Section 1.4(a)(v)), together with a properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal, duly executed on behalf of each Person effecting the surrender of such Certificates and (B) shall be in such form and have such other provisions as Acquirer may reasonably specify, including an agreement to be bound by the provisions of Section 1.4(c) and Article VIII and agree to release, solely in his, her or its capacity as a Company Stockholder, the Company and the Surviving Corporation from any claims, rights, Liabilities and causes of action whatsoever based upon, relating to or arising out of the Certificates and/or the Transactions.

(ii) As soon as reasonably practicable after the Closing, Acquirer shall cause to be deposited with U.S. Bank N.A. and/or any other bank or trust company as Acquirer may choose in its discretion (the “Paying Agent”) the portion of the Merger Consideration payable to Company Stockholders pursuant to Section 1.3(a)(i) in respect of their shares of Company Capital Stock, subject to Section 1.4(c).

(iii) As soon as reasonably practicable after the date of delivery to the Paying Agent of a Certificate, together with a properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal, (A) the holder of record of such Certificate shall, subject to the delivery to Acquirer of a Stockholder Agreement executed by such holder, be entitled to receive the amount of cash that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 1.3(a)(i) in respect of such Certificate, less such Converting Holder’s Pro Rata Share of the Holdback Amount and the Expense Fund Amount, and (B) such Certificate shall be cancelled.

(iv) Upon receipt of written confirmation of the effectiveness of the Merger from the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, Acquirer will instruct the Paying Agent to pay, subject to any applicable Vesting Agreement, to each Converting Holder by check or wire transfer of same-day funds the aggregate amount of cash payable to such Converting Holder pursuant to Section 1.3(a)(i), less such Converting Holder’s Pro Rata Share of the Holdback Amount and the Expense Fund Amount, other than in respect of Dissenting Shares to holders thereof, as promptly as practicable following the submission of a Certificate to the Paying Agent and a duly executed Letter of Transmittal by such Converting Holder, subject to the delivery to Acquirer of a Stockholder Agreement executed by such Converting holder.

(v) If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such document to be lost, stolen or destroyed, the Paying Agent will pay in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed document the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration payable pursuant to Section 1.3(a)(i) in respect of such Person’s shares of Company Common Stock, less the applicable portion of such Converting Holder’s Pro Rata Share of the Holdback Amount and the Expense Fund Amount; provided that

the Acquirer or the Paying Agent may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, require the record holder of such Certificate to deliver a medallion guarantee or indemnity agreement as Acquirer or the Paying Agent may reasonably direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against Acquirer, the Surviving Corporation, the Paying Agent and/or any of their respective representatives or agents with respect to such Certificate.

(b) Surrender of Options. Acquirer shall, no later than the second regularly-scheduled payroll date of Acquirer that is no more than 31 days after the Closing Date, cause the Option Payments to be paid to each Company Optionholder holding Vested In the Money Options, less an amount in cash equal to such Company Optionholder’s Pro Rata Share of the Holdback Amount and the Expense Fund Amount, which amount shall (i) in the case of Option Payments made to Company Optionholders who were employees of the Company for employment Tax purposes (“Employee Optionholders”), be paid through the Surviving Corporation’s payroll system in accordance with Acquirer’s standard payroll practices, and subject to any required withholding for applicable Taxes and (ii) in the case of Option Payments made to Company Optionholders who were not employees of the Company for employment Tax purposes (“Non-Employee Optionholders”), through the Paying Agent; provided that such payment to such Company Optionholder shall be made only if such Company Optionholder shall have delivered a duly executed waiver and acknowledgement substantially in the form of Exhibit H attached here to (the “Option Waiver”). Acquirer shall, no later than the second regularly-scheduled payroll date of Acquirer that is no more than 31 days after the Closing Date, cause the Promised Option Payments to be paid to each Promised Optionholder, less an amount in cash equal to such Promised Optionholder’s Pro Rata Share of the Holdback Amount and the Expense Fund Amount, which amount shall (i) in the case of Promised Option Payments made to Promised Optionholders who were employees of the Company for employment Tax purposes (“Employee Promised Optionholders”), be paid through the Surviving Corporation’s payroll system in accordance with Acquirer’s standard payroll practices, and subject to any required withholding for applicable Taxes and (ii) in the case of Promised Option Payments made to Promised Optionholders who were not employees of the Company for employment Tax purposes (“Non-Employee Promised Optionholders”), be paid through the Paying Agent; provided that such payment to such Promised Optionholder shall be made only if such Promised Optionholder shall have delivered a duly executed Promised Option Waiver.

(c) Holdback Amount and the Expense Fund Amount. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Acquirer shall withhold from each Converting Holder’s applicable portion of the Merger Consideration payable to such Converting Holder pursuant to Section 1.3(a) or with respect to each Promised Optionholder, from such Promised Optionholder’s applicable portion of the Promised Option Payments payable to such Promised Optionholder pursuant to the terms set forth in such Promised Optionholder’s Promised Option Waiver delivered to Acquirer, such Converting Holder’s Pro Rata Share of the Holdback Amount and the Expense Fund Amount; provided that, with respect to each Key Employee, such Key Employee’s contribution to the Holdback Amount shall, to the maximum extent possible, comprise cash consideration that is subject to forfeiture and other restrictions under the Key Employee’s Vesting Agreement (the “Revested Cash”). Any such Revested Cash so placed in the Holdback Fund shall vest prior to any Revested Cash not placed in the Holdback Fund. The Holdback Fund shall constitute partial security for the benefit of Acquirer (on behalf of itself or any other Indemnified Person) with respect to any payment obligations of the Converting Holders under Section 1.6 and Indemnifiable Damages pursuant to the indemnification obligations of the Converting Holders under Article VIII, and shall be held and distributed in accordance with Section 8.1. The adoption of this Agreement and the approval of the Merger by the Company Stockholders shall constitute, among other things, approval of the Holdback Amount and the Expense Fund Amount, the withholding of the Holdback Amount and the Expense Fund Amount by Acquirer and the appointment of the Holders’ Agent.

(d) Transfers of Ownership. If any cash amount payable pursuant to Section 1.3(a) is to be paid to a Person other than the Person to which the Certificate or Company Option surrendered in exchange therefor is registered, it shall be a condition of the payment thereof that such Certificate or Company Option shall be properly endorsed and otherwise in proper form for transfer and that the Person requesting such exchange shall have paid to Acquirer or any agent designated by Acquirer any transfer or other Taxes required by reason of the payment of cash in any name other than that of the registered holder

of such Certificate or Company Option, or established to the reasonable satisfaction of Acquirer or any agent designated by Acquirer that such Tax has been paid or is not payable.

(f) Unclaimed Consideration. Each holder of a Certificate or Company Option who has not theretofore complied with the exchange procedures set forth in and contemplated by this Section 1.4 shall look only to Acquirer (subject to abandoned property, escheat and similar Applicable Law) for its claim, only as a general unsecured creditor thereof, to any portion of the Merger Consideration payable pursuant to Section 1.3(a) in respect of such Certificate or Company Option. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if any Certificate or Company Option has not been surrendered prior to the earlier of the first anniversary of the Effective Time and such date on which the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration payable pursuant to Section 1.3(a) in respect of such Certificate or Company Option would otherwise escheat to, or become the property of, any Governmental Entity, any amounts payable in respect of such Certificate or Company Option shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, become the property of Acquirer, free and clear of all claims or interests of any Person previously entitled thereto.

1.5 No Further Ownership Rights in the Company Capital Stock, Company Options or Company Notes. The applicable portion of the Merger Consideration paid or payable following the surrender for exchange of the Certificates and Company Options in accordance with this Agreement shall be paid or payable in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the shares of Company Capital Stock represented by such Certificates or issuable pursuant to such Company Options, and there shall be no further registration of transfers on the records of the Surviving Corporation of shares of Company Capital Stock or Company Options that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, any Certificate or document or instrument representing a Company Option is presented to the Surviving Corporation for any reason, such Certificate or Company Option shall be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this Article I.

(a) Pursuant to Section 5.14, the Company shall deliver the Company Closing Financial Certificate to Acquirer not later than two Business Days prior to the Closing Date.

(b) Within 75 days after the Closing, Acquirer shall deliver to the Holders’ Agent a notice (the “Acquirer NWC Notice”) setting forth Acquirer’s calculation of Company Net Working Capital and the amount by which Company Net Working Capital as calculated by Acquirer is less or more than Company Net Working Capital as set forth in the Company Closing Financial Certificate, in each case together with supporting documentation, information and calculations, and in accordance with the Working Capital Methodologies.

(c) The Holders’ Agent may object to the calculation of Company Net Working Capital set forth in the Acquirer NWC Notice by providing written notice of such objection to Acquirer within 30 days after Acquirer’s delivery of the Acquirer NWC Notice (the “Notice of Objection”), together with supporting documentation, information and calculations. Any matters not expressly set forth in the Notice of Objection shall be deemed to have been accepted by the Holders’ Agent on behalf of the Converting Holders.

(e) If, after the 10 Business Day period set forth in Section 1.6(d), Acquirer and the Holders’ Agent cannot resolve any matter set forth in the Notice of Objection, then Acquirer and the

Holders’ Agent shall engage KPMG LLC or, if such firm is not able or willing to so act, another nationally recognized auditing firm acceptable to both Acquirer and the Holders’ Agent (the “Reviewing Accountant”) to review only the matters in the Notice of Objection that are still disputed by Acquirer and the Holders’ Agent and the calculation of Company Net Working Capital included in the Company Closing Financial Certificate, the Acquirer NWC Notice and the Notice of Objection ( the “NWC Calculations”) to the extent relevant thereto. After such review and a review of the Company’s relevant books and records, the Reviewing Accountant shall promptly (and in any event within 60 days following its engagement) determine the resolution of such remaining disputed matters, which determination shall be final and binding on the parties hereto and the Converting Holders, and the Reviewing Accountant shall provide Acquirer and the Holders’ Agent with a calculation of Company Net Working Capital in accordance with such determination.

(f) The “Final Net Working Capital Adjustment” shall be an amount, either positive or negative, equal to the sum of (x) the Company Net Working Capital as finally determined pursuant to Section 1.6(b), Section 1.6(d) and/or Section 1.6(e), as the case may be (the “Final Net Working Capital”), minus (y) the Company Net Working Capital as set forth in the Company Closing Financial Certificate. If the Final Net Working Capital Adjustment is a negative amount (such amount, the “Final Net Working Capital Shortfall”) then Acquirer shall withdraw an amount in cash equal to the Final Net Working Capital Shortfall from the Holdback Fund in full satisfaction of any amount due pursuant to this Section 1.6. If the Final Net Working Capital Adjustment is a positive amount (such amount, the “Final Net Working Capital Surplus”) then Acquirer shall pay to the Paying Agent (for distribution to (x) Company Stockholders in respect of Company Capital Stock, (y) Non-Employee Optionholders in respect of Vested In the Money Options and (z) Non-Employee Promised Optionholders) and Acquirer or the Surviving Corporation (for distribution to (x) Employee Optionholders through Acquirer’s or the Surviving Corporation’s payroll system and (y) Employee Promised Optionholders through Acquirer’s or the Surviving Corporation’s payroll system) an amount in cash equal to the Final Net Working Capital Surplus, using immediately available funds, in accordance with each Converting Holder’s Pro Rata Share.

(g) The fees, costs and expenses of the Reviewing Accountant shall be paid (i) by Acquirer in the event the difference between the Final Net Working Capital as determined by the Reviewing Accountant pursuant to Section 1.6(e) and the NWC Calculations set forth in the Acquirer NWC Notice (such difference, the “Acquirer’s Difference”) is greater than the difference between the Final Net Working Capital as determined by the Reviewing Accountant pursuant to Section 1.6(e) and the NWC Calculations set forth in the Notice of Objection (such difference, the “Holders’ Agent’s Difference”), (ii) by the Converting Holders if the Acquirer’s Difference is less than the Holders’ Agent’s Difference or (iii) equally by Acquirer on the one hand, and the Converting Holders on the other hand, if the Acquirer’s Difference is the same as the Holders’ Agent’s Difference. Acquirer may withdraw an amount in cash equal to the amount of all fees costs and expenses of the Reviewing Accountant to be paid by the Converting Holders pursuant to Section 1.6(g)(ii) or Section 1.6(g)(iii), if any, from the Holdback Fund.

Acquirer, the Company, and the Holders’ Agent (on behalf of the Converting Holders) agree to use their reasonable best efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any Governmental Entity or any other Person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any such Taxes.

1.9 Withholding Rights. Each of Acquirer, the Surviving Corporation and the Paying Agent (the “Withholding Agent”) shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any payments of cash pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of any shares of Company Capital Stock, Company Options, Company Promised Options or Company Notes such amounts in cash as the Withholding Agent is required to deduct and withhold with respect to any such payments under the Code or any provision of state, local, provincial or foreign Tax law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and paid over to the applicable Governmental Entity in accordance with Applicable Law, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to such Persons in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

1.10 Taking of Necessary Action; Further Action. If, at any time after the Closing, any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and to vest the Surviving Corporation with full right, title and interest in, to and under, and/or possession of, all assets, property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Company, the officers and directors of the Surviving Corporation are fully authorized, in the name and on behalf of the Company or otherwise, to take all lawful action necessary or desirable to accomplish such purpose or acts, so long as such action is not inconsistent with this Agreement.

(d) The Company, the Board and the Company Stockholders have taken all actions such that the restrictive provisions of any “fair price,” “moratorium,” “control share acquisition,” “business combination,” “interested shareholder” or other similar anti-takeover statute or regulation, and any anti-takeover provision in the organizational or governing documents of the Company will not be applicable to any of Acquirer, the Company, or the Surviving Corporation, or to the execution, delivery, or performance of this Agreement or the Stockholder Agreement, or to the Transactions, the Company Stockholder Approval or the Requisite Stockholder Approval.

The Financial Statements (i) are derived from and in accordance with the books and records of the Company, (ii) complied as to form with applicable accounting requirements with respect thereto as of their respective dates, (iii) fairly and accurately present in all material respects the financial condition of the Company at the dates therein indicated and the results of operations and cash flows of the Company for the periods therein specified (subject, in the case of unaudited interim period financial statements, to normal recurring year-end audit adjustments, none of which individually or in the aggregate are or will be material in amount), (iv) are true, correct and complete in all material respects and (v) were prepared in accordance with GAAP, except for the absence of footnotes in the unaudited Financial Statements, applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods involved.

(b) The Company has no Liabilities of any nature other than (i) those set forth or adequately provided for in the balance sheet included in the Financial Statements as of August 31, 2022 (such date, the “Company Balance Sheet Date” and such balance sheet, the “Company Balance Sheet”), (ii) those incurred in the conduct of the Company’s business since the Company Balance Sheet Date in the ordinary course consistent with past practice that are of the type that ordinarily recur and, individually or in the aggregate, are not material in nature or amount and do not result from any breach of Contract, warranty, infringement, tort or violation of Applicable Law and (iii) those incurred by the Company in connection with the execution of this Agreement. Except for Liabilities reflected in the Financial Statements, the Company has no off-balance sheet Liability of any nature to, or any financial interest in, any third parties or entities, the purpose or effect of which is to defer, postpone, reduce or otherwise avoid or adjust the recording of expenses incurred by the Company.

Allowances for doubtful accounts and warranty returns have been prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied and in accordance with the Company’s past practice and are sufficient to provide for any losses that may be sustained on realization of the applicable Accounts Receivable. The Accounts Receivable arising after the Company Balance Sheet Date and before the Closing Date (i) arose or shall arise in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice, (ii) represented or shall represent bona fide claims against debtors for sales and other charges and (iii) have been collected or are collectible in the book amounts thereof within 60 days following the Agreement Date, less allowances for doubtful accounts and warranty returns determined in accordance with GAAP consistently applied and the Company’s past practice that are or shall be sufficient to provide for any losses that may be sustained on realization of the applicable Accounts Receivable. None of the Accounts Receivable is subject to any claim of offset, recoupment, set-off or counter-claim and, to the knowledge of the Company, there are no facts or circumstances (whether asserted or unasserted) that could give rise to any such claim. No material amount of Accounts Receivable is contingent upon the performance by the Company of any obligation or Contract other than normal warranty repair and replacement. To the Company’s knowledge, no Person has any Encumbrance on any Accounts Receivable, and no agreement for deduction or discount has been made with respect to

any such Accounts Receivable. Schedule 2.4(e) of the Company Disclosure Letter sets forth, as of the Agreement Date, an aging of the Accounts Receivable in the aggregate and by customer, and indicates the amounts of allowances for doubtful accounts and warranty returns.

None of the Company and, to the knowledge of the Company, any Representative of the Company has received or otherwise had or obtained knowledge of any material complaint, allegation, assertion or claim, whether written or oral, in each case, regarding deficient accounting or auditing practices, procedures, methodologies or methods of the Company, in each case, its internal accounting controls or any material inaccuracy in the Company’s financial statements. No attorney representing the Company, whether or not employed by the Company, has reported to the Board or any committee thereof or to any director or officer of the Company evidence of a material violation of securities laws, breach of fiduciary duty or similar violation by the Company or, in each case, its Representatives.

2.12 Employee Benefit Plans and Employee Matters.

(a) Schedule 2.12(a) of the Company Disclosure Letter lists, with respect to the Company and any trade or business (whether or not incorporated) that is treated as a single employer with the Company (an “ERISA Affiliate”) within the meaning of Section 414(b), (c), (m) or (o) of the Code, (i) all “employee benefit plans” within the meaning of Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), (ii) each outstanding loan to an employee from the Company, (iii) all stock option, stock purchase, phantom stock, stock appreciation right, restricted stock unit, supplemental retirement, severance, sabbatical, medical, dental, vision care, disability, employee relocation, cafeteria benefit (Section 125 of the Code), dependent care (Section 129 of the Code), life insurance or accident insurance plans, programs or arrangements, (iv) all bonus, pension, profit sharing, savings, severance, retirement, deferred compensation or incentive plans (including cash incentive plans), programs or arrangements, (v) all other fringe or employee benefit plans, programs or arrangements and (vi) all employment, individual consulting, retention, change of control or executive compensation or severance agreements, written or otherwise, as to which any unsatisfied obligations of the Company remain for the benefit of, or relating to, any present or former employee, consultant or non-employee director of the Company (other than the obligation to pay base salary in arrears in the ordinary course for at-will employees) (all of the foregoing described in clauses (i) through (vi), collectively, the “Company Employee Plans”).

(b) The Company does not sponsor or maintain any self-funded employee benefit plan, including any plan to which a stop-loss policy applies. The Company has made available to Acquirer a true, correct and complete copy of each of the Company Employee Plans and all material, related plan documents (including trust documents, insurance policies or Contracts, employee booklets, summary plan descriptions and other authorizing documents, actuarial reports, financial statements, and any material employee communications relating thereto) and has, with respect to each Company Employee Plan that is subject to ERISA reporting requirements, made available to Acquirer true, correct and complete copies of the Form 5500 reports filed for the last three plan years. Any Company Employee Plan intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code has either obtained from the IRS a favorable determination letter as to its qualified status under the Code, including all amendments to the Code effected by the Tax Reform Act of 1986 and subsequent legislation, or has applied (or has time remaining in which to apply) to the IRS for such a determination letter prior to the expiration of the requisite period under applicable Treasury Regulations or IRS pronouncements in which to apply for such determination letter and to make any amendments necessary to obtain a favorable determination or has been established under a standardized prototype plan for which an IRS opinion letter has been obtained by the plan sponsor and is valid as to the adopting employer. The Company has made available to Acquirer a true, correct and complete copy of the most recent favorable IRS determination or opinion letter issued with respect to each such Company Employee Plan, and nothing has occurred since the issuance of each such letter that would reasonably be expected to cause the loss of the Tax-qualified status of any Company Employee Plan subject to Section 401(a) of the Code. Each trust established in connection with any Company Employee Plan which is intended to be exempt from federal income taxation under Section 501(a) of the Code is so exempt, and no fact or event has occurred that would reasonably be expected to

adversely affect the exempt status of any such trust. The Company has made available to Acquirer all registration statements and prospectuses prepared in connection with each Company Employee Plan. All individuals who, pursuant to the terms of any Company Employee Plan, are entitled to participate in any Company Employee Plan, are currently participating in such Company Employee Plan or have been offered an opportunity to do so and have declined in writing.

(c) None of the Company Employee Plans promises or provides retiree medical or other retiree welfare benefits to any person other than as required under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (“COBRA”) or similar state law and the Company has complied with the requirements of COBRA. There has been no “prohibited transaction” (within the meaning of Section 406 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code and not exempt under Section 408 of ERISA and regulatory guidance thereunder) with respect to any Company Employee Plan. Each Company Employee Plan has been maintained and administered in accordance with its material terms and in material compliance with the requirements prescribed by any and all statutes, rules and regulations (including ERISA and the Code), and the Company and each ERISA Affiliate has performed all obligations required to be performed by it under, is not in default under or in violation of, and has no knowledge of any default or violation by any other party to, any of the Company Employee Plans. Neither the Company nor any ERISA Affiliate is subject to any Liability or penalty under Sections 4976 through 4980 of the Code or Title I of ERISA with respect to any Company Employee Plans. All contributions required to be made by the Company or any ERISA Affiliate to any Company Employee Plan have been made on or before their due dates, and no further contributions will be due or will have accrued thereunder as of the Closing Date, other than contributions accrued in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice after the Company Balance Sheet Date as a result of the operations of the Company after the Company Balance Sheet Date. In addition, with respect to each Company Employee Plan intended to include a Code Section 401(k) arrangement, the Company and each of the ERISA Affiliates have at all times made timely deposits of employee salary reduction contributions and participant loan repayments, as determined pursuant to regulations issued by the United States Department of Labor. No Company Employee Plan is covered by, and neither the Company nor any of ERISA Affiliates has incurred or expects to incur any Liability under Title IV of ERISA or Section 412 of the Code or Section 302 of ERISA. Each Company Employee Plan can be amended, terminated or otherwise discontinued after the Effective Time in accordance with its terms, without Liability to Acquirer (other than ordinary and reasonable administrative expenses typically incurred in a termination event). With respect to each Company Employee Plan subject to ERISA as either an employee pension benefit plan within the meaning of Section 3(2) of ERISA or an employee welfare benefit plan within the meaning of Section 3(1) of ERISA, the Company and, in each case, any applicable ERISA Affiliate thereof have prepared in good faith and timely filed all requisite governmental reports (which were true, correct and complete as of the date filed), including any required audit reports, and have properly and timely filed and distributed or posted all notices and reports to employees required to be filed, distributed or posted with respect to each such Company Employee Plan. No suit, administrative proceeding, action, litigation or claim has been brought, or to the knowledge of the Company, is threatened, against or with respect to any such Company Employee Plan, including any audit or inquiry by the IRS or United States Department of Labor. With respect to each Company Employee Plan (i) no breaches of fiduciary duty or other failures to act or comply in connection with the administration or investment of the assets of such Company Employee Plan have occurred, and (ii) no lien has been imposed under the Code, ERISA or any other applicable law, and (iii) the Company has not made any filing in respect of such Company Employee Plan under the Employee Plans Compliance Resolution System, the Department of Labor Delinquent Filer Program or any other voluntary correction program. No Company Employee Plan is maintained through a human resources and benefits outsourcing entity or professional employer organization.

(d) There has been no amendment to, written interpretation or announcement (whether or not written) by the Company or other ERISA Affiliate relating to, or change in participation or coverage under, any Company Employee Plan that would materially increase the expense of maintaining such Company Employee Plan above the level of expense incurred with respect to such Company Employee Plan for the most recent full fiscal year included in the Financial Statements.

(e) Neither the Company nor any current or former ERISA Affiliate currently maintains, sponsors, participates in or contributes to, or has ever maintained, established, sponsored,

participated in, or contributed to, any pension plan (within the meaning of Section 3(2) of ERISA) that is subject to Part 3 of Subtitle B of Title I of ERISA, Title IV of ERISA or Section 412 of the Code.

(f) Neither the Company nor any ERISA Affiliate is a party to, or has made any contribution to or otherwise incurred any obligation under, or has any Liability (actual or contingent) with respect to, any “multiemployer plan” as such term is defined in Section 3(37) of ERISA, any “multiple employer welfare arrangement” as such term is defined in Section 3(40) of ERISA or any “multiple employer plan” as such term is defined in Section 413(c) of the Code.

With respect to matters described in this Section 5.10, the Company will consult with Acquirer (and will consider in good faith the advice of Acquirer) prior to sending any notices or other communication materials to its employees. Effective no later than immediately prior to the Closing (or at such other time designated by Acquirer), the Company shall terminate the employment of each of those Company employees who (i) have not received an offer of continued employment with Acquirer or the Surviving Corporation prior to the Closing Date or (ii) have declined an offer of continued employment with Acquirer or the Surviving Corporation prior to the Closing Date (collectively, the “Designated Employees”), and the Company shall require such Designated Employees to execute a separation and release agreement (each, a “Separation Agreement”) as a condition to the receipt of any severance paid by the Company, and shall cause all then-unvested Company Options held by such Designated Employees to be terminated in accordance with their terms at the time of such termination.

(b) The Company shall ensure that there shall be no outstanding securities, commitments or agreements of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time that purport to obligate the Company to issue any shares of Company Capital Stock or Company Options under any circumstances other than as required to allow the conversion of the Company Preferred Stock into Company Common Stock.

5.11 Post-Closing Employee Benefits.

(a) During the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the date that is 12 months following the Closing Date (or if earlier, the date of the employee’s termination of employment), Acquirer shall (i) provide each Continuing Employee with base salary or hourly wages that are no less than the base salary or hourly wages provided by the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time, and (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to provide each Continuing Employee, subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable Acquirer Benefit Plans (including, without limitation, with respect of waiting periods and other enrollment requirements), with retirement (excluding any benefits from a defined benefit plan) and health and welfare benefits that are substantially similar to those provided by Acquirer to similarly situated employees of Acquirer.

(b) With respect to any employee benefit plan maintained by Acquirer or its Subsidiaries (collectively, “Acquirer Benefit Plans”) in which any Continuing Employees will participate, to the extent permitted under the terms of the Acquirer Benefit Plans, Acquirer shall, subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable Acquirer Benefit Plans recognize all service of the Continuing Employees with the Company, as the case may be, as if such service were with Acquirer, for vesting and eligibility purposes in any Acquirer Benefit Plan in which such Continuing Employees may be eligible to participate after the Closing Date; provided that such service shall not be recognized to the extent that (x) such recognition would result in a duplication of benefits or (y) such service was not recognized under the corresponding Company Employee Plan.

(c) Nothing contained in this Agreement (including this Section 5.11 and Sections 5.10, 5.12 and 5.13) shall, or shall be construed so as to, (i) prevent or restrict in any way the right of Acquirer to terminate, reassign, promote or demote any employee, consultant, director or other service provider at any time following the Closing, or to change (or cause the change of) the title, powers, duties, responsibilities, functions, locations, salaries, other compensation or terms or conditions of employment or service of any such employee, consultant, director or other service provider (or to cause any of the foregoing actions) at any time following the Closing; (ii) constitute an amendment or modification of any Company Employee Plan or other employee benefit plan; or (iii) create any third party rights in any such current or former employee, consultant, director or other service provider (including any beneficiary or dependent thereof); or (iv) obligate Acquirer or any of its Affiliates to adopt or maintain any particular plan or program or other compensatory or benefits arrangement at any time or prevent Acquirer or any of its Affiliates from modifying or terminating any such plan, program or other compensatory or benefits arrangement at any time.

5.12 Termination of Benefit Plans. Effective as of the day immediately preceding the Closing Date, the Company shall terminate the Company Option Plan and the 401(k) Plan. The Company shall provide Acquirer with evidence that the 401(k) Plan and the Company Option Plan have been terminated (effective no later than the day immediately preceding the Closing Date) pursuant to resolutions of the Board or any applicable committee thereof. The form and substance of such resolutions shall be subject to reasonable review and approval by Acquirer. The Company also shall take such other actions in furtherance of terminating such Company Employee Plan(s) as Acquirer may reasonably require. In the event that termination of the Company’s 401(k) Plan would reasonably be anticipated to trigger liquidation charges, surrender charges or other fees then the Company shall take such actions as are necessary to reasonably estimate the amount of such charges and/or fees and provide such estimate in writing to Acquirer.

5.13 Retention Awards. Following the Closing Date, in accordance with Acquirer’s standard cash and equity award policies, the Continuing Employees (other than the Key Employees) will (subject to their continued employment with Acquirer or an Affiliate thereof through the grant date) be awarded the number of Acquirer RSUs and the cash awards in the aggregate amount set forth on Schedule 5.13 of the Company Disclosure Letter (the “Retention Awards”).

Without limiting the foregoing or Section5.8, the Company shall provide to Acquirer, together with the Company Closing Financial Certificate and the Spreadsheet, such supporting documentation, information and calculations as are reasonably necessary for Acquirer to verify and determine the calculations, amounts and other matters set forth in the Company Closing Financial Certificate and the Spreadsheet.

5.15 Tax Matters.

(a) Each of Acquirer, the Holders’ Agent and the Company shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by any of the others, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns and any Legal Proceeding with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon request therefor) the provision of records and information reasonably relevant to any such Legal Proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. Acquirer, the Company and the Holders’ Agent agree to retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Company relating to any taxable period in its possession beginning before the Closing Date until expiration of the statute of limitations of the respective taxable periods, and to abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any Tax Authority.

(b) Acquirer shall, at its own expense, prepare and timely file, or cause to be prepared and timely filed, all Tax Returns of the Company that are filed after the Closing Date for any Pre-Closing Tax Period (“Acquirer Tax Returns”). All such Acquirer Tax Returns shall be prepared consistent with the past practices of the Company unless otherwise required by Applicable Law. Acquirer shall deliver or cause to be delivered drafts of each Acquirer Tax Return that is an income or other material Tax Return and reflects any item that could reasonably be expected to form the basis of a claim for indemnification against the Company Securityholders to the Holders’ Agent for its review at least 30 days prior to the due date of any such Acquirer Tax Return that is an income Tax Return, and 15 days prior to the due date of any other Acquirer Tax Return. Acquirer shall consider in good faith all of the Holders’ Agent’s reasonable comments which are timely provided. On its income Tax Returns for the year that includes the Closing, the Company will make an election under Revenue Procedure 2011-29, 2011-18 I.R.B. 746, to apply the 70% safe-harbor to any Transaction Expenses that are “success based fees” as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.263(a)-5(f) to the extent permitted by Rev. Proc. 2011-29.

(c) Unless such action is required by Applicable Law, Acquirer will not (and will not permit its Affiliates to) (i) except for the original filing of Tax Returns prepared and filed in accordance with Section 5.15(b), file or amend any Tax Returns of the Company with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period, (ii) make (other than on a Tax Return filed under Section 5.15(b)) or change any Tax election or change any method of accounting of the Company for a Pre-Closing Tax Period, or (iii) initiate discussions or examinations with any Tax Authority (including any voluntary disclosures) regarding Taxes of the Company with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period, in each such case, except if such action could not reasonably be expected to reduce the amount of Merger Consideration payable to the Company Securityholders or result in (or increase) a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Agreement; provided that if Acquirer (or any of its Affiliates) determines that any of the foregoing actions are required by Applicable Law, Acquirer shall notify the Holders’ Agent of its intent to initiate such action and consider in good faith the Holders’ Agent’s comments with respect to such action.

(d) Except as otherwise required by a change in Applicable Law after the Closing Date or a contrary determination in connection with the good faith resolution of a Tax audit or other proceeding, for Tax purposes the parties to this Agreement (and their Affiliates) agree to, and no party shall take (or cause to be taken) any Tax filing position inconsistent with, the following Tax treatment of the items specified below:

(i) The entirety of the Merger Consideration shall be allocated by the parties to Company Capital Stock and Company Options, and none shall be allocated to any of the covenants in the Restrictive Covenant Agreements, or (except for payments in respect of Company Options) treated as compensation for services.

(ii) The rights of the Company Securityholders to the Final Net Working Capital Surplus, Holdback Fund and Revested Cash (A) in respect of their Company Capital Stock shall be treated as deferred contingent purchase price eligible for installment treatment under Section 453 of the Code and (B) in respect of their Company Options and Promised Option Payments, shall be treated as compensation as and when received by the Company Optionholders and Promised Optionholders.

(iii) The Taxable year of the Company for U.S. federal income Tax purposes ends as of the end of the day on the Closing Date.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no party shall be prevented from taking a Tax position inconsistent with such Tax treatment in settlement of a Tax controversy, and no party hereto shall be required to litigate in order to support a Tax position described in this Section 5.15(d).

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Acquirer and the Holders’ Agent agree that for purposes of determining Taxes included in the calculation of Pre-Closing Taxes, Transaction Expenses, Company Debt, or current liabilities reflected in Company Net Working Capital, Taxes shall:

(i) (A) exclude any (1) Taxes arising as a result of actions taken the Company on the Closing Date after the Closing outside of the Company’s ordinary course of business unless expressly contemplated by this Agreement, (2) Taxes arising from an election under Section 338 of the Code or any similar provision of foreign, state or local regulation in respect of the consummation of the Transactions, (3) Taxes attributable to Post-Closing Tax Periods, and (4) liabilities for accruals or reserves established or required to be established under GAAP methodologies for contingent Taxes or with respect to uncertain Tax positions, and (B) be calculated by taking into account in Pre-Closing Tax Periods all available Transaction Deductions, Tax losses, Tax credits, or other Tax attributes that are available to offset Taxable income or Tax of the Company for the Pre-Closing Tax Period at a “more likely than not” or higher level of confidence, and

(ii) in the case of any Taxes of the Company that are imposed on a periodic basis and that are payable for a Straddle Period, such Taxes shall (A) in the case of property, ad valorem or other Taxes that accrue based upon the passage of time, be allocated to the Pre-Closing Tax Period in an amount equal to the amount of such Taxes for the entire Taxable period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the Taxable period through and including the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire Taxable period, and (B) in the case of any other Taxes that are payable for a Straddle Period, be allocated to the Pre-Closing Tax Period in an amount equal to the amount of Taxes that would be payable if the relevant Taxable period ended on the Closing Date.

5.16 280G Stockholder Approval. The Company shall obtain and deliver to Acquirer a Parachute Payment Waiver from each “disqualified individual” (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code). Promptly following the delivery of the Parachute Payment Waivers to Acquirer (but in no event less than two Business Days prior to the Closing), the Company shall submit to the Company Stockholders for approval (in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Acquirer), by such number of holders of Company Stockholders as is required by the terms of Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code, any payments and/or benefits that may separately or in the aggregate, constitute “parachute payments” pursuant to Section 280G of the Code (“Section 280G Payments”) (which determination shall be made by the Company and shall be subject to review and approval by Acquirer, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), such that such payments and benefits shall not be deemed to be Section 280G Payments, and prior to the Closing, the Company shall deliver to Acquirer notification and documentation reasonably satisfactory to Acquirer (and which documentation shall be subject to Acquirer’s advanced review and approval, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) that (i) a vote of the holders of Company Capital Stock was solicited in conformance with Section 280G of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder and the requisite stockholder approval was obtained with respect to any payments and/or benefits that were subject to the stockholder vote (the “280G Stockholder Approval”) or (ii) that the 280G Stockholder Approval was not obtained and as a consequence, that such payments and/or benefits shall not be made or provided to the extent they would cause any amounts to constitute Section 280G Payments, pursuant to the Parachute Payment Waivers that were executed by the affected individuals prior to the solicitation of the vote of the holders of Company Capital Stock pursuant to this Section 5.16.

(ii) any failure of any certification, representation or warranty made by the Company in any certificate (other than the Spreadsheet and the Company Closing Financial Certificate) delivered to Acquirer pursuant to this Agreement to be true and correct as of the date such certificate is delivered to Acquirer;

(iii) any breach of, or default in connection with, any of the covenants, agreements or obligations made by the Company herein or in any other agreements contemplated by the Transaction Documents or the Merger;

(iv) any inaccuracies in the Spreadsheet or the Company Closing Financial Certificate, other than (A) any inaccuracies that have been or should have been addressed pursuant to Section 1.6 or (B) any inaccuracies in the Spreadsheet of the type described on Schedule 8.2(a)(iv) of the Company Disclosure Letter;

(v) any payments made with respect to Dissenting Shares to the extent that such payments, in the aggregate, exceed the value of the consideration that otherwise would have been payable pursuant to Section 1.3(a)(i) upon the exchange of such Dissenting Shares, and any interest, costs, expenses and fees incurred by any Indemnified Person in connection with the exercise of any dissenters’ or appraisal rights;

(vi) any claims by (A) any then-current or former holder or alleged then-current or former holder of any Equity Interests of the Company (including any predecessors thereof), arising out of, resulting from or in connection with (I) the Transactions or this Agreement, including the allocation of the Merger Consideration or any portion thereof, or (II) such Person’s status or alleged status as a holder of Equity Interests of the Company (including any predecessors thereof) at any time at or prior to the Closing, whether for breach of fiduciary duty or otherwise, (B) any Person to the effect that such Person is entitled to any Equity Interest of Acquirer or the Company or any payment in connection with the Transactions other than as specifically set forth on the Spreadsheet or (C) any Person with respect to any Company Option Plan or any other plan, policy or Contract providing for compensation to any Person in the form of Equity Interests;

(x) any matter set forth in Schedule 8.2(a)(x) of the Company Disclosure Letter; and

(xi) any claim or right asserted by any Person that is not an Indemnified Person relating to any breach or alleged breach or any other matter referred to in any of clauses “(i)” through “(x)” above (including any claim commenced or right asserted by any Indemnified Person for the purpose of enforcing any of its rights under this Article VIII).

(b) Materiality qualifications and qualifications by reference to the defined term “Material Adverse Effect” in any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation shall not be taken into account in determining whether an inaccuracy in such representation or warranty, or a breach of such covenant, agreement or obligation, exists, and shall not be taken into account in determining the amount of any Indemnifiable Damages with respect to such inaccuracy or breach.

8.3 Indemnifiable Damage Threshold; Other Limitations.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Indemnified Person may make a claim in respect of any claim for Indemnifiable Damages arising out of, resulting from or in connection with the matters listed in clauses (i) or (ii) of Section 8.2(a) (other than claims arising out of, resulting from or in connection with (i) fraud or willful misconduct by or on behalf of the Company or such Converting Holder or (ii) any failure of any of the Special Representations to be true and correct as aforesaid) (“General Representation Breaches”) unless and until a Claim Certificate (together with any other delivered Claim Certificates) describing Indemnifiable Damages from any particular General Representation Breach (or series of related General Representation Breaches) exceeds $10,000 (the “Per Claim Threshold”), and such Indemnifiable Damages below the Per Claim Threshold shall not be counted toward the Basket.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Indemnified Person may make a claim in respect of any claim for Indemnifiable Damages arising out of, resulting from or in connection with any General Representation Breach unless and until a Claim Certificate (together with any other delivered Claim Certificates) describing Indemnifiable Damages in an aggregate amount greater than $337,500 (the “Basket”) has been delivered, in which case the Indemnified Person may make claims for indemnification, compensation and reimbursement and may receive cash from the Holdback Fund for all Indemnifiable Damages (including the amount of the Basket). Neither the Basket nor the Per Claim Threshold shall apply to any other Indemnifiable Damages or claims therefor.

(c) If the Merger is consummated, recovery from the Holdback Fund shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedy for the indemnity obligations of each Converting Holder under this Agreement for Indemnifiable Damages (and not specific performance or other equitable remedies) arising out of, resulting from or in connection with any General Representation Breach.

(d) In the case of any claims for Indemnifiable Damages arising out of, resulting from or in connection with the failure of any of the Special Representations to be true and correct as aforesaid or the matters listed in clauses (iii) through (x) of Section 8.2(a) (collectively, “Special Claims”), after Indemnified Persons have exhausted or made claims upon all amounts of cash held in the Holdback Fund (after taking into account all other claims for indemnification, compensation and reimbursement from the Holdback Fund made by Indemnified Persons), or following the Holdback Release Date, each Converting Holder shall have Liability for such Converting Holder’s Pro Rata Share of the amount of any Indemnifiable Damages resulting therefrom. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (i) the total Liability of a Converting Holder for Special Claims shall be limited to the aggregate amount of cash actually received by such Converting Holder pursuant to Section 1.3(a); provided that such Converting Holder’s total Liability with respect to any failure of the representations and warranties made by the Company in Section 2.10 (Intellectual Property) (or in any certificate delivered to Acquirer pursuant to this Agreement that are within the scope of those covered by such Section) to be true and correct as aforesaid shall be limited to 30% thereof, and (ii) any limitation of Liability in this Section 8.3(c) shall not apply in the case of fraud or willful misconduct by or on behalf of such Converting Holder or fraud or willful misconduct by or on behalf of the Company for which such Converting Holder has actual knowledge.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the amounts that an Indemnified Person recovers from the Holdback Fund pursuant to Special Claims shall not reduce the

amount that an Indemnified Person may recover with respect to claims that are not Special Claims. By way of illustration and not limitation, assuming there are no other claims for indemnification, compensation or reimbursement, in the event that Indemnifiable Damages resulting from a Special Claim are first satisfied from the Holdback Fund and such recovery fully depletes the Holdback Fund, the maximum amount recoverable by an Indemnified Person pursuant to a subsequent claim that is not a Special Claim shall continue to be the full dollar value of the Holdback Fund irrespective of the fact that the Holdback Fund was used to satisfy such Special Claim, such that the amount recoverable for such two claims would be the same regardless of the chronological order in which they were made.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (i) no Converting Holder shall have any right of indemnification, compensation, reimbursement, contribution or right of advancement from Acquirer, the Surviving Corporation or any other Indemnified Person (based upon such Converting Holder’s position as an officer, director, employee or agent of the Company or otherwise) with respect to any Indemnifiable Damages claimed by any Indemnified Person or any right of subrogation against the Company or the Surviving Corporation with respect to any indemnification, compensation or reimbursement of an Indemnified Person by reason of any of the matters set forth in Section 8.2(a), (ii) the rights and remedies of the Indemnified Persons after the Effective Time shall not be limited by (x) any investigation by or on behalf of, or disclosure to (other than in the Company Disclosure Letter with respect to clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 8.2(a), subject to any limitations expressly set forth therein), any Indemnified Person at or prior to the Effective Time regarding any failure, breach or other event or circumstance or (y) any waiver of any condition to the Closing related thereto, (iii) if an Indemnified Person’s claim under this Article VIII may be properly characterized in multiple ways in accordance with this Article VIII such that such claim may or may not be subject to different limitations depending on such characterization, then such Indemnified Person shall have the right to characterize such claim in a manner that maximizes the recovery and time to assert such claim permitted in accordance with this Article VIII and (iv) no Converting Holder shall be liable for the breach of any covenant of another Converting Holder or any fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful misconduct by or on behalf of any Person other than the Company or such Converting Holder; provided that nothing herein shall limit the liability of a Converting Holder for any fraud or willful misconduct by or on behalf of such Converting Holder or fraud or willful misconduct by or on behalf of the Company for which such Converting Holder has actual knowledge.

(g) All Indemnifiable Damages shall be calculated net of the amount of any recoveries actually received by an Indemnified Person prior to the Holdback Release Date under any existing insurance policies and contractual indemnification or contribution provisions (in each case, calculated net of any actual collection costs and reserves, expenses, deductibles or premium adjustments or retrospectively rated premiums (as determined in good faith by an Indemnified Person) incurred or paid to procure such recoveries) in respect of any Indemnifiable Damages suffered, paid, sustained or incurred by any Indemnified Person; provided that no Indemnified Person shall have any obligation to seek to obtain or continue to pursue any such recoveries.

(h) In no event shall any Indemnified Person have any right to indemnification under this Article VIII to the extent that the applicable Indemnifiable Damages (i) are for Taxes attributable to Post-Closing Tax Periods (other than Indemnifiable Damages for breaches of the representations and warranties contained in Sections 2.11(f), (i), (j), (k), (l), (m), (o), (q), (s), (u), (v), or (x) ), or (ii) are due to the unavailability in any Post-Closing Tax Period of any net operating losses, credits or other Tax attributes from a Pre-Closing Tax Period.

8.4 Period for Claims. Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 8.4, the period (the “Claims Period”) during which claims may be made (i) for Indemnifiable Damages arising out of, resulting from or in connection with the matters listed in clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 8.2(a) (other than with respect to any of the Special Representations) shall commence at the Closing and terminate at 11:59 p.m. Pacific Standard Time on the Holdback Release Date and (ii) for Indemnifiable Damages arising out of, resulting from or in connection with all other matters, including Special Claims, shall commence at the Closing and terminate at 11:59 p.m. Pacific Standard Time on the date that is 30 days following the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations; provided that the Claims Period for any failure of any of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 2.10 (Intellectual Property) to be true and correct shall commence at the Closing and terminate upon the date that is 24 months following the Closing Date.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, such portion of the Holdback Fund as in the reasonable judgment of Acquirer may be necessary to satisfy any unresolved or unsatisfied claims for Indemnifiable Damages specified in any Claim Certificate delivered to the Holders’ Agent on or prior to the Holdback Release Date shall remain in the Holdback Fund until such claims for Indemnifiable Damages have been resolved or satisfied. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Claims Period for claims for Indemnifiable Damages arising out of, resulting from or in connection with fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful misconduct shall not be limited.

8.5 Claims.

(a) From time to time during the Claims Period, Acquirer may deliver to the Holders’ Agent one or more certificates signed by any officer of Acquirer (each, a “Claim Certificate”):

(i) stating that an Indemnified Person has incurred, paid, reserved or accrued, or reasonably anticipates in good faith that it may incur, pay, reserve or accrue, Indemnifiable Damages (or that with respect to any Tax matters, that any Tax Authority may reasonably raise such matter in audit of Acquirer or its subsidiaries, that could give rise to Indemnifiable Damages);

(ii) stating the amount of such Indemnifiable Damages (which, in the case of Indemnifiable Damages not yet incurred, paid, reserved or accrued, may be the maximum amount believed by Acquirer in good faith to be incurred, paid, reserved, accrued or demanded by a third party); and

(iii) specifying in reasonable detail (based upon the information then possessed by Xxxxxxxx) the individual items of such Indemnifiable Damages included in the amount so stated and the nature of the claim to which such Indemnifiable Damages are related.

(b) Such Claim Certificate (i) need only specify such information to the knowledge of such officer of Acquirer as of the date thereof, (ii) shall not limit any of the rights or remedies of any Indemnified Person with respect to the underlying facts and circumstances specifically set forth in such Claim Certificate and (iii) may be updated and amended from time to time by Acquirer by delivering any updated or amended Claim Certificate, so long as the delivery of the original Claim Certificate is made within the applicable Claims Period and such update or amendment relates to the underlying facts and circumstances specifically set forth in such original Claims Certificate; provided that all claims for Indemnifiable Damages properly set forth in a Claim Certificate or any update or amendment thereto shall remain outstanding until such claims have been resolved or satisfied, notwithstanding the expiration of such Claims Period. No delay in providing such Claim Certificate within the applicable Claims Period shall affect an Indemnified Person’s rights hereunder, unless (and then only to the extent that) the Holders’ Agent or the Converting Holders are materially prejudiced thereby.

8.6 Resolution of Objections to Claims.

(a) If the Holders’ Agent does not contest, by written notice to Acquirer, any claim or claims by Acquirer made in any Claim Certificate within the 20-day period following receipt of the Claim Certificate, then Acquirer shall reclaim an amount of cash from the Holdback Fund having a total value equal to the amount of any Indemnifiable Damages corresponding to such claim or claims as set forth in such Claim Certificate.

(b) If the Holders’ Agent objects in writing to any claim or claims by Acquirer made in any Claim Certificate within the 20-day period set forth in Section 8.6(a), Acquirer and the Holders’ Agent shall attempt in good faith for 60 days after Acquirer’s receipt of such written objection to resolve such objection. If Acquirer and the Holders’ Agent shall so agree, a memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by both Acquirer and the Holders’ Agent. Acquirer shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any such memorandum and Acquirer shall reclaim an amount of cash from the Holdback Fund in accordance with the terms of such memorandum.

(c) If no such agreement can be reached during the 60-day period for good faith negotiation set forth in Section 8.6(b), but in any event upon the expiration of such 60-day period, either Acquirer or the Holders’ Agent may bring an arbitration in accordance with the terms of Section 9.11 to resolve the matter. The decision of the arbitrator as to the validity and amount of any claim in such Claim Certificate shall be non-appealable, binding and conclusive upon the parties hereto and the Converting Holders, and Acquirer shall be entitled to act in accordance with such decision and Acquirer shall reclaim an amount of cash from the Holdback Fund in accordance therewith.

(d) Judgment upon any determination of an arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. For purposes of this Section 8.6(d), in any suit hereunder in which any claim or the amount thereof stated in the Claim Certificate is at issue, Acquirer shall be deemed to be the prevailing party unless the arbitrator determines in favor of the Holders’ Agent (on behalf of the Converting Holders) with respect to more than one-half of the amount in dispute, in which case the Converting Holders shall be deemed to be the prevailing party. The non-prevailing party to an arbitration shall pay its own fees and expenses and the fees and expenses of the prevailing party, including attorneys’ fees and costs, reasonably incurred in connection with such suit.

(e) Any portion of the Holdback Fund held following the Holdback Release Date with respect to pending but unresolved claims for indemnification that is not awarded to Acquirer upon the resolution of such claims shall be distributed to Converting Holders within five Business Days following resolution of such claims and in accordance with each such Converting Holder’s Pro Rata Share of such portion of the Holdback Fund (with distributions to Company Stockholders in respect of Company Capital Stock, Non-Employee Optionholders in respect of Vested In the Money Options and Non-Employee Promised Optionholders made through the Paying Agent, and distributions to Employee Optionholders and Employee Promised Optionholders made through Acquirer’s or the Surviving Corporation’s payroll system).

8.7 Holders’ Agent.

(a) By the Converting Holders’ adoption of the Merger, and by the Converting Holders’ receipt of the benefits thereof, including any consideration payable hereunder, at the Closing, Shareholder Representative Services LLC shall be constituted and appointed as the Holders’ Agent. The Holders’ Agent shall be the representative, agent and attorney-in-fact for and on behalf of the Converting Holders for all purposes in connection with this Agreement and the agreements ancillary hereto, including to: (i) execute, as the Holders’ Agent, this Agreement and any agreement or instrument entered into or delivered in connection with the Transactions, (ii) give and receive notices, instructions and communications permitted or required under this Agreement, or any other agreement, document or instrument entered into or executed in connection herewith, for and on behalf of any Converting Holder, to or from Acquirer (on behalf of itself or any other Indemnified Person) relating to this Agreement or any of the Transactions and any other matters contemplated by this Agreement or by such other agreement, document or instrument (except to the extent that this Agreement expressly contemplates that any such notice or communication shall be given or received by each Converting Holder individually), (iii) review, negotiate and agree to and authorize Acquirer to reclaim an amount of cash from the Holdback Fund in satisfaction of claims asserted by Acquirer (on behalf of itself or any other Indemnified Person, including by not objecting to such claims) pursuant to this Article VIII, (iv) object to such claims pursuant to Section 8.6, (v) consent or agree to, negotiate, enter into, or, if applicable, contest, prosecute or defend, settlements and compromises of, and demand arbitration and comply with Orders of courts and awards of arbitrators with respect to, such claims, resolve any such claims, take any actions in connection with the resolution of any dispute relating hereto or to the Transactions by arbitration, settlement or otherwise, and take or forego any or all actions permitted or required of any Converting Holder or necessary in the judgment of the Holders’ Agent for the accomplishment of the foregoing and all of the other terms, conditions and limitations of this Agreement, (vi) consult with legal counsel, independent public accountants and other experts selected by it, solely at the cost and expense of the Converting Holders, (vii) consent or agree to any amendment to this Agreement or to waive any terms and conditions of this Agreement providing rights or benefits to the Converting Holders (other than with respect to the payment of the Merger Consideration less the Holdback Amount and the Expense Fund Amount) in accordance with the terms hereof and in the manner provided herein, (viii) pursuant to Section 1.6, review, negotiate, object to, accept or agree to Acquirer’s calculation of Company Net Working Capital and (ix) take all

actions necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Holders’ Agent for the accomplishment of the foregoing, in each case without having to seek or obtain the consent of any Person under any circumstance. Acquirer, Xxxxxx Sub and their respective Affiliates (including after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation) shall be entitled to rely on the appointment of Shareholder Representative Services LLC as the Holders’ Agent and treat such Holders’ Agent as the duly appointed attorney-in-fact of each Converting Holder and has having the duties, power and authority provided for in this Section 8.7. The Converting Holders shall be bound by all actions taken and documents executed by the Holders’ Agent in connection with this Article VIII, and Acquirer and other Indemnified Persons shall be entitled to rely exclusively on any action or decision of the Holders’ Agent. The Person serving as the Holders’ Agent may be removed or replaced from time to time, or if such Person resigns from its position as the Holders’ Agent, then a successor may be appointed, by the holders of a majority in interest of the aggregate amount of cash then held in the Holdback Fund (or, in the event that there is no cash then held in the Holdback Fund by the Converting Holders collectively having a Pro Rata Share greater than 50%) upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice to Acquirer. No bond shall be required of the Holders’ Agent.

(b) The Holders’ Agent will incur no liability to the Converting Holders in connection with its services pursuant to this Agreement and any related agreements except to the extent resulting from its bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Holders’ Agent shall not be liable for any action or omission pursuant to the advice of counsel. The Converting Holders shall severally but not jointly indemnify the Holders’ Agent and hold it harmless against any loss, Liability or expense incurred without gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith on the part of the Holders’ Agent and arising out of, resulting from or in connection with this Agreement or any related agreements, or the acceptance or administration of its duties in connection herewith, including all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses and legal fees and other legal costs reasonably incurred by the Holders’ Agent, in each case as such losses, Liabilities or expenses are suffered or incurred. If not paid directly to the Holders’ Agent by the Converting Holders, such losses, Liabilities or expenses may be recovered by the Holders’ Agent from (i) the funds in the Expense Fund and (ii) the portion of the Holdback Fund otherwise distributable to the Converting Holders (and not distributed or distributable to an Indemnified Person or subject to a pending indemnification claim of an Indemnified Person) on or after the Holdback Release Date pursuant to the terms hereof, at the time of distribution, and such recovery will be made from the Converting Holders according to their respective Pro Rata Shares of such losses, Liabilities or expenses; provided, that while the Holders’ Agent may be paid from the aforementioned sources of funds, this does not relieve the Converting Holders from their obligation to promptly pay such losses, Liabilities or expenses as they are suffered or incurred. In no event will the Holders’ Agent be required to advance its own funds on behalf of the Converting Holders or otherwise. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any restrictions or limitations on liability or indemnification obligations of, or provisions limiting the recourse against non-parties otherwise applicable to, the Converting Holders set forth elsewhere in this Agreement are not intended to be applicable to the indemnities provided to the Holders’ Agent hereunder. The foregoing indemnities will survive the Closing, the resignation or removal of the Holders’ Agent or the termination of this Agreement.

(c) Upon the Closing, Acquirer or the Paying Agent will wire the Expenses Fund Amount to the Holders’ Agent, which shall be held by the Holders’ Agent in a segregated client account (the “Expense Fund”). The Expense Fund will be used for any expenses incurred by the Holders’ Agent. The Converting Holders will not receive any interest or earnings on the Expense Fund and irrevocably transfer and assign to the Holders’ Agent any ownership right that they may otherwise have had in any such interest or earnings. The Holders’ Agent will hold these funds separate from its corporate funds and will not voluntarily make these funds available to its creditors in the event of bankruptcy. As soon as practicable following the completion of the Holders’ Agent’s responsibilities, the Holders’ Agent will deliver any remaining balance of the Expense Fund to the Paying Agent for further distribution to the Converting Holders. For tax purposes, the Expense Fund will be treated as having been received and voluntarily set aside by the Converting Holders at the time of Closing.

(d) After the Closing, any notice or communication given or received by, and any decision, action, failure to act within a designated period of time, agreement, consent, settlement, resolution or instruction of, the Holders’ Agent that is within the scope of the Holders’ Agent’s authority under Section 8.7(a) shall constitute a notice or communication to or by, or a decision, action, failure to

act within a designated period of time, agreement, consent, settlement, resolution or instruction of all the Converting Holders and shall be final, binding and conclusive upon each such Converting Holder; and each Indemnified Person shall be entitled to rely exclusively upon any such notice, communication, decision, action, failure to act within a designated period of time, agreement, consent, settlement, resolution or instruction as being a notice or communication to or by, or a decision, action, failure to act within a designated period of time, agreement, consent, settlement, resolution or instruction of, each and every such Converting Holder. Acquirer, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation and the Indemnified Persons are hereby relieved from any Liability to any Person for any acts done by them in accordance with such notice, communication, decision, action, failure to act within a designated period of time, agreement, consent, settlement, resolution or instruction of the Holders’ Agent.

8.8 Third-Party Claims. In the event Acquirer becomes aware of a third-party claim that Xxxxxxxx believes may result in a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Article VIII by or on behalf of an Indemnified Person, Acquirer shall have the right in its sole discretion to conduct the defense of, and to settle or resolve, any such claim, including paying and/or agreeing to pay, in settlement or resolution of such claim, any amounts to the third party making such claim (such amounts, collectively, a “Settlement Payment”). The reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Acquirer in connection with any investigation, defense, settlement or resolution of such claim and the enforcement and protection of its rights under this Agreement in respect thereof (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, other professionals’ and experts’ fees and court or arbitration costs) (collectively, “Defense Costs,” which, for the avoidance of doubt, do not include a Settlement Payment itself), shall constitute Indemnifiable Damages for which the Indemnified Persons shall be indemnified to the extent an indemnification claim therefor is made under this Article VIII, provided that the (i) Acquirer and Holders’ Agent agree in writing that such Defense Costs constitute Indemnifiable Damages or (ii) it is ultimately determined that such third-party claim is itself indemnifiable under Section 8.2. The Holders’ Agent shall have the right to receive copies of all pleadings, notices and communications with respect to such third-party claim to the extent that receipt of such documents does not affect any privilege relating to any Indemnified Person and subject to execution by the Holders’ Agent of Acquirer’s standard non-disclosure agreement to the extent that such materials contain confidential or proprietary information. In the event that Acquirer determines to settle or resolve any such third-party claim and make a Settlement Payment in connection therewith, Acquirer shall seek the consent of the Holders’ Agent to such Settlement Payment. If the Holders’ Agent (i) has consented to such Settlement Payment or (ii) unreasonably withholds, conditions or delays giving such consent to such Settlement Payment (provided that such consent shall be deemed to have been given unless the Holders’ Agent shall have objected within 25 days after a written request for such consent by Acquirer), then the existence and amount of Indemnifiable Damages with respect to such Settlement Payment shall be determinative and binding upon the Converting Holders and neither the Holders’ Agent nor any Converting Holder shall have any power or authority to object to recovery by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person (against the Holdback Fund or otherwise) for any Indemnifiable Damages claimed with respect to such Settlement Payment. If the Holders’ Agent has not consented to such Settlement Payment and such consent was not either (i) unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed or (ii) deemed given for failure to object within 15 days after a written request therefor, then the existence and amount of Indemnifiable Damages with respect to such Settlement Payment shall be determined in the manner applicable to indemnification claims made pursuant to this Article VIII.

8.9 Treatment of Indemnification Payments. Acquirer, the Holders’ Agent and the Converting Holders agree to treat (and cause their respective Affiliates to treat) any payment received by the Indemnified Persons pursuant to Section 1.6 and this Article VIII as adjustments to the Merger Consideration for all Tax purposes to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law.

9.1 Survival of Representations, Warranties and Covenants. If the Merger is consummated, the representations and warranties made by the Company herein, in the Company Disclosure Letter (including any exhibit to or schedule of the Company Disclosure Letter), and in the other certificates contemplated by this Agreement shall survive the Closing and remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation or disclosure made by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto, until the date that is 15 months following the Closing Date; provided that, regardless of any investigation or disclosure made
