STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT

THIS STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT is entered into as of February 1, 2013, (this “Agreement”), by and among Ziff Xxxxx, Inc., a Delaware Corporation (“Purchaser”), IGN Entertainment Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), Fox Interactive Media, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Fox” or, in its capacity as representative of the Stockholders, the “Representative”) and Hearst Communications, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Hearst” and, together with Fox, the “Stockholders”), and solely with respect to Section 9.17 hereof, News America Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (“Guarantor”). The Purchaser, Company, Stockholders and, as applicable, the Representative shall each be referred to in this Agreement as a “Party”, and collectively as the “Parties”. Capitalized terms that are used in this Agreement and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed thereto in Article X.

RECITALS

WHEREAS, the Stockholders own all of the outstanding capital stock (the “Company Capital Stock”) of the Company, of which Fox is the holder of Ninety-Four Thousand Five Hundred (94,500) shares of common stock of the Company (“Fox Shares”) and Hearst is the holder of Five Thousand Five Hundred (5,500) shares of common stock of the Company (“Hearst Shares”); and

WHEREAS, the Stockholders desire to sell to Purchaser, and Purchaser desires to purchase from the Stockholders, all of the Company Capital Stock.

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

ARTICLE I

PURCHASE AND SALE

1.1 Purchase and Sale of the Company Capital Stock. On the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, at the Closing, each Stockholder, severally, shall sell and deliver to Purchaser, and Purchaser shall purchase and acquire from each Stockholder, all right, title and interest of such Stockholder in and to, in the case of Fox, the Fox Shares and, in the case of Hearst, the Hearst Shares, in each case, free and clear of all Liens, other than Liens created or imposed by Purchaser or under applicable securities Laws.

1.2 Purchase Price. The purchase price for the purchase of the Company Capital Stock shall be an amount equal to (a) $50,000,000 (the “Base Price”), (b) plus the amount if, any, by which the Estimated Closing Date Working Capital exceeds the Working Capital Target, (c) minus, the amount, if any, by which the Working Capital Target exceeds the Estimated Closing Date Working Capital, (d) minus the Transaction Expenses (to the extent not paid prior to the Closing Date) (such resulting amount pursuant to Sections 1.2(a)-(d), the “Closing Consideration”), as such amount may be adjusted pursuant to the provisions of Section 1.4, and (e) plus, when payable, the Deferred Payment (the “Purchase Price”).

1.3 Payment of Closing Consideration at Closing. At the Closing, Purchaser shall pay, or cause to be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds (i) to the accounts designated in writing by each Stockholder prior to the Closing Date, a cash amount to each such Stockholder (in each case, a “Closing Payment”) equal to such Stockholder’s Pro-Rata Percentage of (a) the Closing Consideration, as set forth in the Estimated Closing Statement delivered pursuant to Section 1.4(a), minus (b) the Escrow Amount and (ii) the Transaction Expenses (to the extent not paid prior to the Closing Date) and Escrow Amount in accordance with Section 2.3.

1.4 Adjustment of the Purchase Price.

(a) Estimated Closing Date Working Capital; Closing Statement. Prior to the Closing Date, the Company has delivered to Purchaser a statement (the “Estimated Closing Statement”) setting forth (i) the Company’s good faith estimate of Working Capital as of the close of business on the Closing Date (the “Estimated Closing Date Working Capital”), (ii) the Transaction Expenses (to the extent not paid prior to the Closing Date) and (iii) the amount, and the calculation of, the Closing Consideration and Closing Payments derived therefrom in accordance with Section 1.3.

(b) Final Working Capital Adjustment. The Purchase Price shall be adjusted following the Closing based on the difference between the Final Closing Date Working Capital and the Estimated Closing Date Working Capital determined pursuant to this Section 1.4, and payment shall be made in respect of any such post-Closing adjustment as set forth in Section 1.4(e).

(c) Closing Date Working Capital. No later than ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall cause to be prepared and delivered to Representative a statement (the “Closing Statement”) setting forth the actual Working Capital as of the close of business on the Closing Date (“Closing Date Working Capital”) and including a balance sheet of the Company as of such date and the derivation of Closing Date Working Capital therefrom. For the avoidance of doubt, unless the Representative otherwise agrees in writing, Purchaser may not amend, supplement or modify the Closing Statement or the amount of Closing Date Working Capital following its delivery to Representative. If Purchaser fails to deliver the Closing Statement within such ninety (90) day period, then in addition to any other rights the Representative may have under this Agreement, the Representative shall have the right to elect that the Estimated Closing Date Working Capital be deemed to be the amount of the Final Closing Date Working Capital and be final and binding and used for purposes of calculating the adjustment pursuant to Section 1.4(e). The Parties acknowledge that no adjustments may be made to the Working Capital Target.

(d) Disputes.

(i) Representative shall have ninety (90) days to review the Closing Statement. If Representative disagrees with Purchaser’s calculation of the Closing Date Working Capital as set forth in the Closing Statement, Representative may, within ninety (90) days after receipt of the Closing Statement, deliver a notice to Purchaser (a “Dispute Notice”) disagreeing with such calculation and setting forth Representative’s calculation of such amount. Any Dispute Notice shall specify those items or amounts as to which Representative disagrees, and Representative shall be deemed to have agreed with all other items and amounts contained in the Closing Statement and the calculations of Closing Date Working Capital set forth therein (except to the extent such other items or amounts as are related to the items or amounts subject to such disagreement). If Representative fails to deliver such notice in such ninety (90) day period, Representative shall have waived its rights to contest the Closing Statement and the calculations of Closing Date Working Capital set forth therein shall be deemed to be final and binding upon the Parties and such amount shall be used for purposes of calculating the adjustment pursuant to Section 1.4(b) above.

(ii) If a Dispute Notice shall be duly delivered pursuant to Section 1.4(d)(i), Representative and Purchaser shall, during the thirty (30) days following such delivery, attempt to reach agreement on the disputed items or amounts to determine, as may be required, the amount of Closing Date Working Capital. Any such agreement shall be in writing and shall be final and binding upon the Parties. If during such period, Representative and Purchaser are unable to reach such agreement, then all amounts and issues remaining in dispute shall be submitted by Representative and Purchaser to a mutually acceptable nationally recognized independent accounting firm (the “Accounting Referee”) for a determination resolving such disputed items or amounts for the purpose of calculating Closing Date Working Capital (it being understood that in making such calculation, the Accounting Referee shall (A) function as an expert and not as an arbitrator, but shall be entitled to the privileges and immunities of an arbitrator and (B) determine the process and procedures (which may include requiring written submissions from Purchaser and the Representative) for reaching its determination). If Representative and Purchaser are unable to agree on an appointment of an Accounting Referee, within ten (10) days after not being able to reach agreement thereon, an Accounting Referee shall be determined by mutual agreement of the regular auditor of Representative and the regular auditor of Purchaser and, if such auditors are unable to reach agreement within ten (10) days of being requested to do so, an Accounting Referee shall be determined by lot with each of Representative and Purchaser submitting one (1) candidate meeting the requirements of an Accounting Referee set forth in the definition thereof. In making such calculation, the Accounting Referee shall consider only those items or amounts in the Closing Statement and Purchaser’s calculations of Closing Date Working Capital as to which Representative has disagreed. The scope of the disputes to be resolved by the Accounting Firm shall be limited to fixing mathematical errors and determining whether the items in dispute were determined in accordance with the definition of Working Capital (including the Accounting Rules) and the Accounting Referee is not to make any other determination. The Accounting Referee shall deliver to Representative and Purchaser, as promptly as practicable (but in any case no later than thirty (30) days from the date of engagement of the Accounting Referee), a report setting forth its calculations of Closing Date Working Capital, which amount shall not be less than the applicable amount thereof shown in Purchaser’s calculation delivered pursuant to Section 1.4(c) nor

more than the amount thereof shown in Representative’s calculation delivered pursuant to Section 1.4(d)(i). Such report shall be final and binding upon the Parties and shall be used for purposes of calculating the adjustment pursuant to Section 1.4(b) above. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the dispute resolution mechanism contained in this Section 1.4(d) shall be the exclusive mechanism for resolving disputes regarding the Working Capital adjustment, if any, and neither the Stockholders nor Purchaser shall be entitled to indemnification for Losses pursuant to Article VII to the extent taken into account in the determination of Closing Date Working Capital. Judgment may be entered upon the determination of the Accounting Referee in any court having jurisdiction over the party against which such determination is to be enforced. The fees, costs and expenses of the Accounting Referee shall be borne by the Parties in proportion to the relative amount each Party’s determination has been modified, with any amount to be borne by the Stockholders to be in accordance with their Pro Rata Percentages. For example, if Representative challenges the calculation of the Closing Date Working Capital by an amount of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000), but the Accounting Referee determines that the Stockholders have a valid claim for only Sixty Thousand Dollars ($60,000), the Stockholders in accordance with their Pro-Rata Percentages shall bear forty percent (40%) of the fees and expenses of the Accounting Referee and Purchaser shall bear the other sixty percent (60%) of such fees and expenses.

(e) Final Closing Date Working Capital Adjustment. Following the time that the Closing Date Working Capital is finally determined pursuant to this Section 1.4 (such finally determined amount, “Final Closing Date Working Capital”), payment shall be made as follows:

(i) If the Final Closing Date Working Capital is greater than the Estimated Closing Date Working Capital, the Purchaser shall, within five (5) Business Days after the Final Closing Date Working Capital is determined pursuant to this Section 1.4, pay to the Stockholders in accordance with their Pro-Rata Percentages by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by each of the Stockholders, an amount equal to such excess.

(ii) If the Final Closing Date Working Capital is less than the Estimated Closing Date Working Capital, the Stockholders in accordance with their Pro Rata Percentages shall, within five (5) Business Days after the Final Closing Date Working Capital is determined pursuant to this Section 1.4, pay to Purchaser, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by Purchaser, an amount equal to such deficiency.

Any payment pursuant to Section 1.4(e) shall be made together with interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the rate of interest published by the Wall Street Journal as the “prime rate” at large U.S. money center banks on the Closing Date, calculated on the basis of the number of days elapsed from the Closing Date to the date of payment. Upon payment of the amounts provided in this Section 1.4, none of the Parties may make or assert any claim under this Section 1.4.

(f) Cooperation. During the period of time from and after the Closing Date through the final determination and payment of Final Closing Date Working Capital in accordance with this Section 1.4, (i) the Stockholders, Representative and Purchaser shall, and Purchaser shall cause the Company and each of its and the Company’s representatives to, cooperate and assist in the review by the Accounting Referee of the Closing Statement and the calculations of Closing Date Working Capital and in the conduct of the review referred to in this Section 1.4, including making available, to the extent reasonably requested, properties, books, records, contracts, documents, information, personnel, representatives (including the Company’s accountants) and records of the Company and such representatives (including the work papers of the Company’s accountants) supporting its calculations of Closing Date Working Capital, and to use commercially reasonable efforts to respond to the Accounting Referee, and to provide any such requested documents and information as promptly as practical, and to provide any such books, records, contracts, documents and information electronically and in such formats as are reasonably requested, and (ii) Purchaser shall afford, and shall cause the Company to afford, to the Stockholders, Representative and any accountants, counsel or financial advisers retained by the Stockholders or Representative in connection with the review of Final Closing Date Working Capital in accordance with this Section 1.4, direct access during normal business hours upon reasonable advance notice to all the properties, books, records, contracts, documents, information, personnel, representatives (including the Company’s accountants) and records of the Company and such representatives (including the work papers of the Company’s accountants) relevant to the review of the Closing Statement and Purchaser’s determination of Closing Date Working Capital and, if requested by Representative, shall provide any such books, records, contracts, documents and information electronically and in such formats as are reasonably requested. No actions taken by Purchaser on its own behalf or on behalf of the Company, on or following the Closing Date shall be given effect for purposes of determining the Closing Date Working Capital and the determination of Closing Date Working Capital shall not take into account any developments or events taking place after the Closing Date.

1.5 Escrow Amount.

(a) Generally. At the Closing, a portion of the Closing Consideration in an amount equal to the Escrow Amount shall be deposited with the Escrow Agent in accordance with the Escrow Agreement as security for the indemnification obligations of the Stockholders pursuant to Article VII. The Escrow Amount, as adjusted from time to time, together with any interest earned thereon, shall be referred to as the “Escrow Fund.”

(b) Escrow Fund. The Escrow Fund shall be distributed by the Escrow Agent in accordance with this Section 1.5(b), Article VII of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement. Within ten (10) days following the twelve (12) month anniversary of the Closing Date, the amount of the Escrow Fund then remaining minus an amount sufficient to cover any outstanding and unpaid indemnification claims pursuant to Article VII hereof made on or prior to the twelve (12) month anniversary of the Closing Date shall be released to the Representative for distribution to the Stockholders in accordance with their respective Pro-Rata Percentages. After the applicable date on which the Escrow Fund is released pursuant to the foregoing sentence, any amount of the Escrow Fund then remaining that has not been released because of a prior or pending claim under Article VII hereof shall be immediately released to the Representative for distribution to the Stockholders in accordance with their Pro-Rata Percentages or to the Purchaser, as the case may be, upon settlement or final determination of such indemnification claim.

1.6 Minimum Cash; Deferred Payment. The Company agrees to cause there to be a cash balance at the Company and its Subsidiaries of $2,500,000 at the Closing. The Company also agrees to make (and Purchaser shall cause the Company to make) payment to the Stockholders, on June 27, 2013, in accordance with their respective Pro-Rata Percentages, of $2,500,000 in cash, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to accounts designated by each of the Stockholders (the “Deferred Payment”).

ARTICLE V

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF PURCHASER

Subject to the disclosure schedule delivered by Purchaser to the Stockholders on the date hereof concurrently with entry into of this Agreement and attached to this Agreement as Schedule B (the “Purchaser Disclosure Schedule”), Purchaser hereby represents and warrants as follows:

5.1 Organization. Purchaser is a corporation duly formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. Purchaser has the corporate, limited liability company or other similar power and authority to own or lease all of its properties and assets and to carry on its business as it is now being conducted. Purchaser is duly licensed or qualified to do business in each jurisdiction in which the nature of its business or the character or location of any properties or assets owned or leased by it makes such licensing or qualification necessary, except for those jurisdictions where the failure to be so qualified would not, individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably be expected to have a Purchaser Material Adverse Effect.

5.2 Authorization of Agreement. Purchaser and each Affiliate of Purchaser party to this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement has all requisite corporate, limited liability company or other similar power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and each other Transaction Agreement to which it is a party, to perform its obligations hereunder and thereunder and to consummate the Transaction. The execution and delivery of the Transaction Agreements to which it is a party and the consummation of the Transaction contemplated thereby have been duly authorized by all requisite corporate, limited liability company or other similar action on the part of Purchaser and each such Affiliate. Each of the Transaction Agreements to which it is a party has been or will be at or prior to the Closing, duly and validly executed and delivered by Purchaser and each such Affiliate and (assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery by the other parties thereto) each of the Transaction Agreements, when so executed and delivered, will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of Purchaser and each such Affiliate, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights and remedies generally, and subject, as to enforceability, to general principles of equity, including principles of commercial reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding at law or in equity).

5.3 Conflicts; Consents of Third Parties.

(a) Except as set forth on Section 5.3(a) of the Purchaser Disclosure Schedule, and assuming the making of the filings and the receipt of the consents or waiting period terminations or expirations identified in Section 5.3(b), none of the execution and delivery by Purchaser or its Affiliates of this Agreement or the other Transaction Agreements to which it is a party, the consummation of the Transaction, or compliance by Purchaser or its Affiliates with any of the provisions hereof or thereof conflicts with or will conflict with, or result in any violation of or constitute a breach of or a default (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both) under, or permit the acceleration of any obligation under, or give rise to a right of termination, modification or cancellation under, any provision of (i) the certificate of incorporation or bylaws

or other comparable organizational documents, of Purchaser or any of its Affiliates; (ii) any Contract or Permit to which Purchaser or any of its Affiliates is a party or by which any of the properties or assets of Purchaser or any of its Affiliates are bound; (iii) any Order of any Governmental Authority applicable to Purchaser or any of its Affiliates or by which any of the properties or assets of Purchaser or any of its Affiliates are bound; or (iv) any applicable Law, except in the case of clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv), where such conflict, violation or default would not have or reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Purchaser Material Adverse Effect.

(b) Except as set forth on Section 5.3(b) of the Purchaser Disclosure Schedule, no consent, waiver, approval, Order, Permit or authorization of, or declaration or filing with, or notification to, any Governmental Authority is required on the part of Purchaser or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with the execution and delivery by Purchaser of this Agreement or the other Transaction Agreements to which it is a party, the consummation of the Transaction by Purchaser or the compliance by Purchaser with any of the provisions hereof or thereof, except for any Governmental Approval, the failure of which to make or obtain would not have or reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Purchaser Material Adverse Effect.

5.4 Legal Proceedings. Except as disclosed on Section 5.4(a) of the Purchaser Disclosure Schedule, there are no pending or, to the knowledge of Purchaser, threatened, Legal Proceedings against the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates that, individually or in the aggregate, has had or would reasonably be expected to have a Purchaser Material Adverse Effect. Except as disclosed on Section 5.4(b) of the Purchaser Disclosure Schedule, there is no outstanding Order imposed upon the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates or any of their respective assets, except for Legal Proceedings which, if adversely determined, would not, individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably be expected to have a Purchaser Material Adverse Effect.

5.5 Investment. Purchaser is acquiring the Company Capital Stock for its own account and for investment purposes and not with a view to the distribution thereof. Purchaser acknowledges that the Company Capital Stock has not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any state securities law and Purchaser must bear the economic risk of its investment in Company Capital Stock until and unless the offer and sale of such Company Capital Stock is subsequently registered under the Securities Act and all applicable state securities laws or an exemption from such registration is applicable. Purchaser has conducted an examination of available information relating to the Company and its business, Purchaser has such knowledge, sophistication and experience in business and financial matters that it is capable of evaluating an investment in the Company Capital Stock, and Purchaser can bear the economic risk of an investment in the Company Capital Stock and can afford a complete loss of such investment.

5.6 Solvency. As of the Closing and immediately after giving effect to the Transaction contemplated by this Agreement (including any financing arrangements entered into in connection therewith), (i) the amount of the “fair saleable value” of the assets of each of the Company and its Subsidiaries will exceed (A) the value of all liabilities of the Company and such Subsidiaries, including contingent and other liabilities, and (B) the amount that will be required to pay the probable liabilities of the Company and such Subsidiaries on their existing

debts (including contingent liabilities) as such debts become absolute and matured, (ii) each of the Company and its Subsidiaries will not have an unreasonably small amount of capital for the operation of the businesses in which it is engaged or proposed to be engaged, and (iii) each of the Company and its Subsidiaries will be able to pay its liabilities, including contingent and other liabilities, as they mature. For purposes of the foregoing, “not have an unreasonably small amount of capital for the operation of the businesses in which it is engaged or proposed to be engaged” and “able to pay its liabilities, including contingent and other liabilities, as they mature” means that such Person will be able to generate enough cash from operations, asset dispositions or refinancing, or a combination thereof, to meet its obligations as they become due. In completing the Transaction contemplated by this Agreement, Purchaser does not intend to hinder, delay or defraud any present or future creditors of Purchaser or the Company or its Subsidiaries.

5.7 No Other Representations and Warrants; No Reliance. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that, except as expressly set forth in Article III and Article IV, the Company and the Stockholders make no promise, representation or warranty, express or implied, relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, itself, or any of their respective assets, liabilities or operations, including with respect to merchantability, fitness for any particular or ordinary purpose, or as to the accuracy or completeness of any information regarding any of the foregoing, or as to any other matter, and any such other promises, representations or warranties are hereby expressly disclaimed. In addition, Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that Purchaser has not executed or authorized the execution of this Agreement in reliance upon any promise, representation or warranty not expressly set forth in Article III or Article IV. The foregoing shall not be interpreted to limit any rights under the Transition Services Agreement.

5.8 Financial Advisors. No Person has acted, directly or indirectly, as a broker, finder, agent, investment banker or financial advisor for Purchaser or its Affiliates and no Person is entitled to any fee or commission or like payment from Purchaser or its Affiliates in connection with the Transaction.

(a) For a period of twelve (12) months commencing on the Closing Date (the “Restricted Period”) Fox shall not, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates whose officers have been responsible for the oversight of the Company (collectively “Non-Solicit Parties”) to directly or indirectly solicit those employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries listed on Section 6.13 of the Company Disclosure Schedules (“Restricted Person”); provided, however, that (i) any Non-Solicit Party may solicit any Restricted Person whose employment has been terminated by the Company, any of the Company’s Subsidiaries, Purchaser or by such employee and (ii) the foregoing shall not apply to any general solicitation or mass advertisement not specifically targeted at Restricted Persons.

(b) Fox acknowledges that a breach or threatened breach of this Section 6.13 would give rise to irreparable harm to Purchaser and the Company, for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy, and hereby agrees that in the event of a breach or a threatened breach by any Stockholder of any such obligations, Purchaser shall, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies that may be available to it in respect of such breach, be entitled to equitable relief, including a temporary restraining order, an injunction, specific performance and any other relief that may be available from a court of competent jurisdiction (without any requirement to post bond).

(c) Fox acknowledges that the restrictions contained in this Section 6.13 are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate interests of Purchaser and constitute a material inducement to Purchaser to enter into this Agreement and consummate the Transaction. In the event that any covenant contained in this Section 6.13 should ever be adjudicated to exceed the time, geographic, product or service, or other limitations permitted by applicable Law in any jurisdiction, then any court is expressly empowered to reform such covenant, and such covenant shall be deemed reformed, in such jurisdiction to the maximum time, geographic or other limitations permitted by applicable Law.

Each Claim Notice shall be in writing and (A) shall specify the basis for indemnification claimed by the Indemnified Party, (B) if such Claim Notice is being given with respect to a Third Party Claim, shall describe in reasonable detail such Third Party Claim and shall be accompanied by copies of all relevant pleadings, demands and other papers served on the Indemnifying Party, and (C) shall specify the amount of (or if not finally determined, a good faith estimate of) the Losses being incurred by, or imposed upon, the Indemnified Party on account of the basis for the claim for indemnification.

(b) The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, at its sole option and expense, to be represented by counsel of its choice and to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise handle any Indemnification Claim and if the Indemnifying Party elects to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise handle any Indemnification Claim, it shall within thirty (30) days (or sooner, if the nature of the Indemnification Claim so requires) (the “Dispute Period”) notify the Indemnified Party of its intent to do so. If the Indemnifying Party does not elect within the Dispute Period to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise handle any Indemnification Claim, the Indemnified Party may defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise handle such Indemnification Claim. If the Indemnifying Party elects to defend against, negotiate, settle with or otherwise handle any Indemnification Claim, the Indemnified Party may participate, at its own expense, in the defense of such Indemnification Claim; provided, however, that such Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in any such defense with separate counsel at the reasonable expense of the Indemnifying Party if (i) so requested by the Indemnifying Party to participate, or (ii) in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Indemnified Party, a conflict or potential conflict exists between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party that would make such separate representation advisable; and provided, further, that the Indemnifying Party shall not be required to pay for more than one such counsel for all Indemnified Parties in connection with any Indemnification Claim. The Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party agree to cooperate with each other in connection with the defense, negotiation or settlement of any such Indemnification Claim. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 7.3 to the contrary, in the event that the Indemnifying Party has elected to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise handle any Indemnification Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall not, without the written consent of the Indemnified Party, settle or compromise any Indemnification Claim or permit a default or consent to entry of any judgment (each a “Settlement”), which consent may not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party may effect a Settlement without such consent if, with respect to such Settlement (A) the claimant and such Indemnifying Party provide to such Indemnified Party an unqualified release from all liability in respect of the Indemnification Claim, (B) such Settlement does not impose any liabilities or

obligations on the Indemnified Party, and (C) with respect to any non-monetary provision of such Settlement, such provisions would not, in the Indemnified Party’s reasonable judgment, have or be reasonably expected to have any material adverse effect on the business, assets, properties, condition (financial or otherwise), results of operations or prospects of the Indemnified Party. Nothwithstanding the foregoing, the Representative hereby gives notice pursuant to this Section 7.3, of its intent to defend the Uniloc Matter and the Purchaser and the Company hereby consents to such defense.

(c) After any final decision, judgment or award shall have been rendered by a Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of the time in which to appeal therefrom, or a Settlement or arbitration shall have been consummated, or the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall have arrived at a mutually binding agreement with respect to an Indemnification Claim hereunder, the Indemnified Party shall forward to the Indemnifying Party notice of any sums due and owing by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Agreement with respect to such matter and the Indemnifying Party shall make prompt payment thereof pursuant to the terms of the agreement reached with respect to the Indemnification Claim.

(d) If the Indemnifying Party does not undertake within the Dispute Period to defend against an Indemnification Claim, then the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in any such defense at its sole cost and expense, but, in such case, the Indemnified Party shall control the investigation and defense. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything in this Section 7.3 to the contrary, the Indemnified Party shall not effect a Settlement without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(e) In the event that an Indemnified Party has delivered a Claim Notice in respect of an Indemnification Claim that does not involve a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall attempt in good faith to resolve any disputes with respect to such Claim Notice within forty-five (45) days of the delivery by the Indemnifying Party thereof, and if not resolved in such forty-five (45) day period, such Indemnification Claim may be resolved through judicial actions, suits or proceedings brought by either such party or by such other means as such parties mutually agree.

7.4 Limitations on Indemnification.

(a) Any Indemnification Claim required to be made on or prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period set forth in Section 7.1, and not made, shall be irrevocably and unconditionally released and waived by the Party seeking indemnification with respect thereto. It is the express intent of the Parties that, if the applicable survival period for an item as contemplated by Section 7.1 is shorter than the statute of limitations that would otherwise have been applicable to such item, then, by contract, the applicable statute of limitations with respect to such item shall be reduced to the shortened survival period contemplated hereby. The Parties further acknowledge that the time periods set forth in Section 7.1 for the assertion of claims under this Agreement are the result of arm’s length negotiation among the Parties and that they intend for the time period to be enforced as agreed by the Parties.

(b) The amount of any Losses for which indemnification is provided under this Article VII shall be net of any amounts actually recovered by the Indemnified Party under insurance policies or indemnity or contribution agreements or otherwise with respect to such Losses net of any increase in insurance premiums as a result of making such claims. In the event that an insurance or other recovery is made by any party with respect to any Losses for which any such Person has been indemnified hereunder and has received funds in the amount of the Losses or portion thereof, then a refund equal to the aggregate amount of the recovery shall be made promptly to the Indemnifying Party.

(c) Neither a Purchaser Indemnified Party nor a Stockholder Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article VII with respect to (i) any matter of which Purchaser or the Company, respectively, waived prior to the Closing or (ii) any breach of any representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement which the chief executive officer, chief financial officer or general counsel (or other officers performing the functions typically performed by offices of such titles) of the Purchaser had actual knowledge of prior to the Closing. An Indemnifying Party shall not be required to indemnify any Indemnified Party to the extent of any Losses that a court of competent jurisdiction or arbitrator shall have determined by final judgment to have resulted from the fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party seeking indemnification.

(d) In calculating the amount of Losses under this Article VII or Article VIII which are subject to indemnification under Section 7.2(a) or Section 7.2(b) or the amount of Taxes which are subject to indemnification under Section 8.2(a), there shall be deducted an amount equal to any Tax benefit to the party claiming such Losses or to any of its Affiliates from being able to claim a Tax loss or Tax credit as a result of such Losses. The amount of any such Tax benefit shall reflect the actually realized Tax benefit (whether realized in the year the indemnification payment is made or later).

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, except with respect to Losses actually paid to a third party pursuant to a Third Party Claim, no party shall, in any event, be liable to any other Person for any consequential, incidental, indirect, special or punitive damages, loss of revenue, income or profits, diminution of value or loss of business reputation or opportunity and no “multiple of profits” or “multiple of cash flow” or similar valuation methodology shall be used in calculating the amount of any Losses.

(f) In the event of any breach giving rise to an indemnification obligation under this Article VII, the Indemnified Party shall take and cause its Affiliates to take, or cooperate with the Indemnifying Party if so requested by the Indemnifying Party in order to take, commercially reasonable measures to mitigate the consequences of the related breach.

(g) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement, any amounts payable pursuant to the indemnification obligations under this Article VII shall be paid without duplication and in no event shall any party hereto be indemnified under different provisions of this Agreement for Losses which have already been paid or otherwise taken into account under this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Purchaser shall make no claim for indemnification under this Article VII in respect of any matter that is taken into account in the calculation of any adjustment to the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 1.4.

(h) The Parties agree to treat any indemnity payment made pursuant to this Article VII as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for federal, state, local and foreign income Tax purposes.

(i) With respect to Taxes, in the event of a conflict between the provisions of Article VII, on the one hand, and the provisions of Article VIII, on the other hand, the provisions of Article VIII shall control.

(j) Except for Losses relating to breaches of Fundamental Representations and covenants, the Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall seek reimbursement for any Losses for which they are entitled to receive indemnification under Article VII only from the Escrow Fund pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement.

(k) With respect to Losses relating to breaches of Fundamental Representations and covenants, the Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall first seek reimbursement for any such Losses for which they are entitled to receive indemnification under Article VII out of the Escrow Fund pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement, until such funds are exhausted or released from escrow.

(l) No Stockholder shall be liable for any indemnification obligations under this Article VII, individually or in the aggregate, in excess of the portion of the Purchase Price actually received by such Stockholder in cash (for clarity, any amounts distributed to Purchaser or any Purchaser Indemnified Party from the Escrow Fund shall be considered as payment by each Stockholder, in accordance with such Stockholder’s Pro-Rata Percentage, for such Stockholder’s liability in connection with indemnification for Losses sought against the Escrow Fund).

7.5 Exclusive Remedy; Nature of Representations and Warranties. Following the Closing Date, the sole and exclusive remedy for any inaccuracy or breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, obligation or other agreement contained in this Agreement (or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement) shall be indemnification in accordance with this Article VII, except with respect to any claim for intentional fraud or claim made under Article VIII, and no Person will have any other entitlement, remedy or recourse, whether in contract, tort or otherwise. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, obligation or other agreement set forth herein (or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement) it may have against the other Party hereto and its Affiliates arising under or based upon any Law, except pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article VII. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 7.5 shall not (a) operate to interfere with or impede the operation of the provisions of Article I providing for the resolution of certain disputes relating to the Purchase Price between the parties and/or by an Accounting Referee, or (b) limit the rights of the parties to seek equitable remedies (including specific performance or injunctive relief).

ARTICLE VIII

TAX MATTERS

8.1 Tax Returns.

(a) The Representative shall prepare or cause to be prepared (at its expense) all Tax Returns for the Company and its Subsidiaries for all periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date, that are due after the Closing Date. Such Tax Returns shall be prepared in a manner consistent with the Tax Returns (including amended Tax Returns) of the Company and its Subsidiaries filed on or prior to the Closing Date for prior fiscal periods, unless otherwise required by Law. Such Tax Returns shall be delivered to the Company within not less than thirty (30) days prior to their required filing date for the Company’s review and timely filing. The Representative shall timely remit (or cause to be timely remitted) to the Company any Taxes shown due on such Tax Returns.

(b) The Company shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed (at its expense) any Tax Returns of the Company and its Subsidiaries for Straddle Periods; provided, however, that to the extent that the operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries prior to and including the Closing Date are required to be included in the consolidated, unitary or combined Tax Return that includes a Stockholder, the Representative will cause the operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries to be so included in its consolidated, unitary or combined Tax Return. Such Tax Returns shall be prepared in a manner consistent with the Tax Returns (including amended Tax Returns) of the Company and its Subsidiaries filed on or prior to the Closing Date for prior fiscal periods, unless otherwise required by Law. Such Tax Returns shall be subject to the Representative’s right to review and consent to any such Tax Returns within not less than thirty (30) days prior to their required filing date and to the Representative’s agreement with the relevant information and data set forth in such Tax Returns (which consent and agreement shall not be unreasonably withheld).

8.2 Indemnification.

(a) Subject to the survival limitations set forth in Section 8.9, the Purchase Price Cap and the deduction for Tax benefit in Section 7.4(d), the Stockholders shall severally be responsible in accordance with their Pro Rata Percentages, and indemnify Purchaser, for any and all Taxes of the Company and its Subsidiaries arising out of or attributable to any Pre-Closing Period, other than to the extent of (i) Taxes paid prior to Closing, (ii) Taxes reflected as a current liability in the Working Capital of the Company as of Closing and (iii) Taxes attributable to any transaction not contemplated by this Agreement occurring outside the Ordinary Course of Business on the Closing Date but after the Closing. For the avoidance of doubt, a claim made by Purchaser under this Article VIII shall not be considered a claim made under Section 7.2(a)(i) for a breach of the Company’s representations and warranties provided under Section 3.10.

(b) Purchaser shall be responsible, and indemnify the Stockholders, for any and all of Taxes of the Company and its Subsidiaries arising out of or attributable to any Post-Closing Period and Taxes described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of Section 8.2(a).

(c) In the case of any Straddle Period, the amount of Taxes allocable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date shall be deemed to be (i) in the case of Taxes imposed on a periodic basis (such as real or personal property Taxes), the amount of such Taxes for the entire period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the Straddle Period ending on and including the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire relevant Straddle Period, and (ii) in the case of Taxes not described in clause (i) (such as Taxes that are based upon or related to income or receipts, based upon occupancy or imposed in connection with any sale or other transfer or assignment or property (real or personal, tangible or intangible)), the amount of any such Taxes shall be determined as if such taxable period ended as of the close of business on the Closing Date.

(d) Purchaser shall not have any right to indemnification under this Agreement (including Articles VII and VIII hereof) from and against any Losses or Taxes of any Person that are due to the unavailability in any Post-Closing Period of any net operating losses, credits or other Tax attribute from a Pre-Closing Period.

8.3 Refunds. If after the Closing Date, Purchaser, the Company or any of their Affiliates receives a refund of any Tax of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or a credit against any Tax of the Company of any of its Subsidiaries attributable to a Pre-Closing Period (whether received in cash, or as a credit against other Taxes), Purchaser shall pay to Representative for the benefit of the Stockholders within fifteen (15) days after such receipt an amount equal to such refund or credit, together with any interest received or credited thereon, provided that any such amount shall be net of any reasonable costs of obtaining such refund or credit and net of any Tax borne by Purchaser on account of the receipt of such refund or credit and/or the payment of such amount to the Representative for the benefit of the Stockholders, regardless of the nature of or reason for the refund or reduction in Taxes payable, unless the right to such refund or credit was taken into account in determining the Working Capital.

8.4 Audits. Following the Closing, Purchaser shall control all audits or administrative or judicial proceedings relating to Taxes of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, except as otherwise provided in this Section 8.4. In the case of an audit or administrative or judicial proceeding that relates to Pre-Closing Periods or for which Purchaser may otherwise seek indemnification from the Representative (on behalf of the Stockholders) under this Agreement, the Representative shall have the right, at the expense of the Stockholders, to control the conduct of such audit or proceeding, and Purchaser shall have the right, at its expense, to participate in such audit or proceeding. If the Representative chooses not to control such audit or proceeding, the Representative shall have the right, at the expense of the Stockholders, to participate in such audit or proceeding. The Party controlling an audit or proceeding for a Pre-Closing Period shall in any event keep the other Party informed of the progress of such audit or proceeding, shall promptly provide the other Party with copies of all material documents (including, without limitation, material notices, protests, briefs, written rulings and determinations and correspondence) pertaining to such audit or proceeding and shall not settle such audit or proceeding without the other Party’s advance written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

8.5 Amended Returns. The Representative shall have the exclusive right to file (or cause to be filed) or request the Purchaser to file any amended Tax Returns with respect to Pre-Closing Periods. Upon the request of the Representative, Purchaser shall file (or caused to be filed) any amended Tax Return described in the preceding sentence and shall execute any powers of attorney or similar documents that may be required to effectuate the intent of this Section 8.5.

8.6 Cooperation. After the Closing Date, Purchaser and the Representative shall (and shall cause their respective Affiliates to) (i) assist the other Party in preparing any Tax Returns which such other Party is responsible for preparing and filing in accordance with Section 8.1, and in connection therewith provide the other Party necessary powers of attorney, (ii) cooperate fully in preparing for and conducting any audits of, or disputes with Taxing Authorities regarding, any Tax Returns of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, and (iii) make available to the other Party and to any Taxing Authority as reasonably requested all information, records, and documents relating to Taxes of the Company and its Subsidiaries. In furtherance of the foregoing, Purchaser and the Representative shall retain (and shall cause their Affiliates to retain) copies of all Tax Returns and related papers for all taxable periods that include the Closing Date and all prior taxable periods until the later of (a) expiration of the statute of limitations to which such Tax Returns relate, or (b) six (6) years following the due date (without extension) for such Tax Returns.

8.7 No Duplication. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any amounts payable pursuant to the obligations under this Article VIII shall be paid without duplication and in no event shall any Party be paid under different provisions of this Agreement for Losses which have already been paid or otherwise taken into account under this Agreement.

8.8 Tax Treatment of Payments. The Parties shall treat any indemnity payments made pursuant to this Article VIII as adjustments to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes unless applicable Tax law causes such payment not to be so treated.

8.9 Survival. The indemnity and payment obligations set forth in this Article VIII shall survive until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations determined without regard to any waivers or other agreements to extend the applicable period filed or entered into after the Closing Date. The right to indemnification with respect to claims of which notice was given prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period shall survive such expiration until such claim is finally resolved and any obligations with respect thereto are fully satisfied.

ARTICLE IX

MISCELLANEOUS

9.1 Expenses.

(a) Except for the Transaction Expenses, which shall be paid pursuant to this Agreement, and except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or the other Transaction Agreements, each Party shall bear its own costs and expenses incurred in connection with the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements and each other agreement, document and instrument contemplated hereby or thereby and the consummation of the Transaction. Purchaser shall be solely responsible for all governmental fees and charges applicable to any requests for Governmental Approvals or to the consummation of the Transaction.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Purchaser shall be liable for and shall indemnify and hold the Stockholders harmless from and against any sales Tax, use Tax, direct or indirect real property transfer or gains Tax, documentary stamp Tax, value added Tax or similar Taxes and related fees attributable to the sale or transfer of the Company Capital Stock (“Transfer Taxes”). The Party required by law to file a Tax Return with respect to such Transfer Taxes shall timely prepare, with the other Party’s cooperation, and file such Tax Return. If the Representative or any of its Affiliates (other than the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) files any such Tax Return, Purchaser shall reimburse the Representative for any Transfer Taxes paid by the Representative or such Affiliate in connection with the filing of such Tax Return within five (5) days after receipt by Purchaser of a copy of such filed Tax Returns from the Representative. Purchaser and the Representative each agrees to timely sign and deliver (or to cause to be timely signed and delivered) such certificates or forms as may be necessary or appropriate and otherwise to cooperate to establish any available exemption from (or otherwise reduce) such Transfer Taxes.

9.2 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware applicable to contracts made and performed in such state without giving effect to the choice of law principals of such state that would require or permit the application of the laws of another jurisdiction.

9.3 Submission to Jurisdiction; Waivers. The Parties agree that any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to the Transaction or to this Agreement, or the validity, interpretation, breach or termination thereof, including claims seeking redress or asserting rights under any law, shall be resolved exclusively in the courts of the State of Delaware or any court of the United States located in the State of Delaware (the “Delaware Courts”) and appellate courts having jurisdiction of appeals from such Delaware Courts. In that context, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Party irrevocably and unconditionally:

(a) submits for itself and its property in any action relating to the Transaction or to this Agreement, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Delaware Courts, and appellate courts having jurisdiction of appeals from any of the foregoing courts, and agrees that all claims in respect of any such action shall be heard and determined in such Delaware Courts or, to the extent permitted by law, in such appellate courts;

(b) consents that any such action may and shall be brought exclusively in such courts and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue or jurisdiction of any such action in any such court or that such action was brought in an inconvenient forum, and agrees not to plead or claim the same;

(c) waives all right to trial by jury in any action (whether based on contract, tort or otherwise) arising out of or relating to the Transaction or to this Agreement, or its performance under or the enforcement of this Agreement;

(d) agrees that service of process in any such action may be effected by mailing a copy of such process by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to such Party at its address as provided in Section 9.7; and

(e) agrees that nothing in this Agreement shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by the laws of the State of Delaware.

9.4 Further Assurances. After the Closing, each Party shall from time to time, at the request of and without further cost or expense to the other, execute and deliver such other instruments of conveyance and assumption and take such other actions as may reasonably be requested in order to more effectively consummate the Transaction.

9.5 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the Schedules and Exhibits hereto) and the other Transaction Agreements represent the entire understanding and agreement between the Parties with respect to the Transaction and supersedes all prior agreements among the Parties respecting the Transaction. The Parties have voluntarily agreed to define their rights, liabilities and obligations respecting the Transaction exclusively in contract pursuant to the express terms and provisions of this Agreement; and the Parties expressly disclaim that they are owed any duties or are entitled to any remedies not expressly set forth in this Agreement.

9.6 Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement can be amended, supplemented or changed, and any provision hereof can be waived, only by written instrument making specific reference to this Agreement signed by the Party against whom enforcement of any such amendment, supplement, modification or waiver is sought. The waiver by any Party of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a further or continuing waiver of such breach or as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach. No failure on the part of any Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of such right, power or remedy by such Party preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. In the event any provision of any other Transaction Agreement shall in any way conflict with the provisions of this Agreement (except where a provision therein expressly provides that it is intended to take precedence over this Agreement) this Agreement shall control.

9.7 Notices. All notices and other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed given (a) when delivered personally by hand (with written confirmation of receipt), (b) when sent by facsimile (with written confirmation of transmission), or (c) one (1) Business Day following the day sent by overnight courier (with written confirmation of receipt), in each case at the following addresses and facsimile numbers (or to such other address or facsimile number as a Party may have specified by notice given to the other Party pursuant to this provision).

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

9.9 Specific Performance. Each Party acknowledges and hereby agrees that any breach of this Agreement would give rise to irreparable harm for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy. Accordingly, the Parties acknowledge and hereby agree that in the event of any breach or threatened breach by the Company, the Representative or the Stockholders, on the one hand, or Purchaser, on the other hand, of any of their respective covenants or obligations set forth in this Agreement, the Company, the Representative and the Stockholders, on the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other hand, shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement, and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement, to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of the other under this Agreement. The Company, the Representative or the Stockholders, on the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other hand, hereby agree not to raise any objections to the availability of the equitable remedy of specific performance to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement, on the one hand, or Purchaser, on the other hand, and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of the Parties under this Agreement.

9.10 No Third-Party Beneficiaries; No Recourse Against Affiliates; Liability. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended or shall be construed to give any rights to any Person or entity other than the Parties and their successors and permitted assigns. No past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney or representative of the Stockholders, the Company or any of its respective Affiliates shall have any liability (whether in law or in equity or in contract or in tort) for any obligations or liabilities of the Stockholders or the Company arising under, in connection with or related to this Agreement or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, the Transaction, including any alleged non-disclosure or misrepresentations made by any such Persons. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, the Stockholders and the Representative shall not have or be subject to any liability to Purchaser or any other Person resulting from the distribution to Purchaser or the Purchaser’s use of or reliance on any information, documents or materials made available to Purchaser in expectation of, or in connection with, the Transaction.

9.11 Assignment. Neither Party may assign or transfer this Agreement or any right, interest or obligation hereunder, directly or indirectly (by operation of Law or otherwise), without the prior written approval of the other Party. Any assignment in violation of this Section 9.11 shall be void. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

9.12 Cooperation with Legal Proceedings. From and after the Closing, if requested by the Representative, Purchaser shall cooperate with the Representative in the investigation, defense or prosecution of any Legal Proceedings pending or threatened against the Representative or its Affiliates with respect to the business of the Company, whether or not either Party has notified the other of an indemnification claim with respect to such matter. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, but provided that such requests shall not unreasonably interfere with the business or operations of Purchaser, Purchaser shall make available its employees to give depositions or testimony and shall furnish all documentary or other evidence that the Representative may reasonably request. The Representative shall reimburse Purchaser for all reasonable and necessary out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the performance of its obligations under this Section 9.12.

9.13 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, including facsimile counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original copy of this Agreement and all of which, when taken together, shall be deemed to constitute one and the same agreement.

9.14 Electronic Signatures. Notwithstanding the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (15 U.S.C. Sec. 7001 et seq.), the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, or any other Law relating to or enabling the creation, execution, delivery, or recordation of any Contract or signature by electronic means, and notwithstanding any course of conduct engaged in by the Parties, no Party shall be deemed to have executed a Transaction Document or other document contemplated thereby (including any amendment or other change thereto) unless and until such Party shall have executed such Transaction Document or other document on paper by a handwritten original signature or any other symbol executed or adopted by a Party with current intention to authenticate such Transaction Document or such other document contemplated. Delivery of a copy of a Transaction Document or such other document bearing an original signature by facsimile transmission (whether directly from one facsimile device to another by means of a dial-up connection or whether mediated by the worldwide web), by electronic mail in “portable document format” (“.pdf”) form, or by any other electronic means intended to preserve the original graphic and pictorial appearance of a document, shall have the same effect as physical delivery of the paper document bearing the original signature. “Originally signed” or “original signature” means or refers to a signature that has not been mechanically or electronically reproduced.

9.15 Authorization of Representative.

(a) The Stockholders hereby appoint the Representative as attorney in fact, authorized and empowered to act, for and on behalf of the Stockholders, in connection with this Agreement as it relates to Stockholders generally, and such other matters as are reasonably necessary for the consummation of the Transaction, including (i) to administer and resolve any disputes or compromise on their behalf such disputes with Purchaser (including those related to Taxes, the Closing Date Working Capital, and any claims for indemnity) and (ii) to execute and deliver on behalf of the Stockholders any documents or agreements contemplated by or necessary or desirable in connection with this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, the Stockholders acknowledge and agree that whenever (A) a consent of the Stockholders is required or permitted under this Agreement, only the consent of the
