2.4 Effects of the Merger. At the Effective Time, the effect of the Merger shall be as set forth in this Agreement and as provided in the applicable provisions of the DGCL. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, at the Effective Time, except as otherwise agreed to pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, all of the property, rights, privileges, immunities, powers and franchises of the Company and Merger Sub shall vest in the Surviving Corporation, and all debts, liabilities and duties of the Company and Merger Sub shall become the debts, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Corporation.

2.5 Certificate of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation. At the Effective Time, the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation shall be amended and restated to be the same as the certificate of incorporation of the Merger Sub except that the name of the corporation shall be revised to be the name of the Surviving Corporation, and such certificate of incorporation shall be the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter amended as provided by Law and such certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation.

2.6 Directors and Officers of the Surviving Corporation.

(a) Directors. The directors of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the directors of the Surviving Corporation from and after the Effective Time, until the earlier of their death, resignation or removal or until their respective successors are duly designated or elected and qualified, as the case may be. In furtherance thereof, the Company shall secure, effective at the Effective Time, such resignations of its incumbent directors as is necessary to enable the designees of Parent to be designated, elected or appointed to the board of directors of the Company, and the Company shall take all actions available to the Company to cause such designees of Parent to be so elected or appointed at the Effective Time.

(b) Officers. The officers of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the officers of the Surviving Corporation from and after the Effective Time, until the earlier of their death, resignation or removal or until their respective successors are duly elected or appointed, as the case may be.

2.7 Conversion of Shares.

(a) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any further action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or any stockholder of the Company:

(i) subject to Section 2.7(b), each share of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into the right to receive (A) its Pro Rata Share of the Closing Parent Shares, (B) its Stockholder Pro Rata Share of the Overage Cash Amount (less any Excess Overage Cash Amount), if any, and (C) its Stockholder Pro Rata Share of the Holdback Shares released pursuant to Section 2.11(c), if any;

(iii) each share of the common stock, $0.001 par value per share, of Merger Sub then outstanding shall be converted into one share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation.

(b) No fractional Parent Shares shall be issued in connection with the Merger, and no certificates or scrip for any such fractional shares shall be issued. Any holder of Company Common Stock who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fraction of a Parent Share (after aggregating all fractional shares of Parent Shares issuable to such holder), in lieu of such fraction of a share and, upon surrender of such holder’s Company Common Stock certificates shall be paid in cash the dollar amount (rounded to the nearest whole cent), without interest, determined by multiplying such fraction by the Parent Share Price.

2.8 Treatment of Company Options

(a) Subject to Section 2.8(e), at the Effective Time:

(i) all Stock Options, whether vested or unvested, that are held by a Company Optionholder who is not as of the Effective Time a current “employee” as defined under Instruction A(1)(a)(1) of Form S-8 of the Securities Act of 1933 of either the Company, Parent or the Surviving Corporation (a “Current S-8 Employee”) will immediately terminate and be of no further force and effect; and

(ii) all Stock Options, whether vested or unvested, that are held by a Company Optionholder who is a Current S-8 Employee will immediately be either assumed by, or cancelled in exchange for a substitute stock option award issued by, Parent (as so assumed or substituted per this Section 2.8, an “Assumed Stock Option”). The Assumed Stock Option will cover a number of shares of Parent Shares equal to the product of (A) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to the Company Stock Options as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and (B) the Exchange Ratio, with such number rounded down to the nearest whole share, with no right to receive any fractional shares or cash in lieu thereof (such Parent Shares, the “Optionholder Shares”). The “Exchange Ratio” is a fraction of which the numerator is (1) the Total Parent Shares less (2) the Note Conversion Shares plus (3) a number of whole Parent Shares with a value (using the Parent Share Price) equal to the Overage Cash Amount (less any Excess Overage Cash Amount), if any, and the denominator of which is the sum of (x) the total number of shares of Company Common Stock and (y) the total number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to Company Options outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(b) From and after the Effective Time, each Assumed Stock Option shall continue to be subject to substantially the same terms and conditions as were applicable to such Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time in accordance with the Company stock option plan under which it was issued and the Company stock option agreement by which it was evidenced as of the Effective Time, except that:

(i) the per share exercise price of each Assumed Stock Option shall be equal to the per share exercise price of the Stock Option (as of immediately prior to the Effective Time) divided by the Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent;

(ii) if the Assumed Stock Option is not a new option issued in substitution by Parent but instead an assumed option, each reference in the Company plan and Company agreement to the Company shall, where appropriate, be deemed to refer to Parent; and

(iii) for clarity, each Assumed Stock Option may be exercised solely for Parent Shares.

(c) If any Assumed Stock Options terminate prior to the Expiration Date while they remain unvested, then upon the termination of such Assumed Stock Options, the Holdback will be increased by a number of Parent Shares equal to the number of terminated Assumed Stock Options divided by the Parent Share Price (such Parent Shares, the “Terminated Option Shares”).

(d) If any Assumed Stock Options are exercised prior to the Expiration Date pursuant to a “net exercise” provision (which is not intended to include a sale to cover), the Holdback will be increased by the number of Parent Shares that would otherwise have been delivered to the option holder upon an exercise of the Assumed Stock Option for cash but were withheld in order to pay for the exercise price and any tax withholding obligations (together with the Terminated Option Shares, the “Holdback Option Shares”).

(e) To the extent that a Stock Option qualifies immediately prior to the Effective Time as an “incentive stock option” within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code, the option exercise price, the number of Parent Shares issuable upon exercise of the Assumed Stock Option and the terms and conditions of exercise of the Assumed Stock Option shall be determined in a manner that complies with Section 424(a) of the Code. The assumption or substitution of each Company Stock Option shall be done in a manner that complies with Section 409A of the Code as necessary to maintain exemption of such Assumed Stock Option from the adverse tax consequences under Section 409A of the Code.

(f) If Assumed Stock Options are not substituted or exchanged for options to purchase Parent Shares that are the subject of an effective Form S-8, then by June 30, 2013, Parent shall file with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-8 relating to the Parent Shares issuable upon exercise of the Assumed Stock Options. Parent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement for so long as such Assumed Stock Options remain outstanding.

2.9 Working Capital Adjustment.

(a) At least three Business Days prior to Closing, Company shall provide to Parent an estimated balance sheet of Company as of the close of business on the Closing Date (the “Estimated Closing Balance Sheet”) prepared in accordance with GAAP. In connection with the delivery of the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet, Company shall also deliver to Parent a worksheet based on the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet which sets forth Company’s estimated calculation of the Working Capital as of the Closing Date (the “Estimated Working Capital Value”). “Working Capital” shall mean the Company’s Current Assets as of the Closing Date less the Company’s Current Liabilities as of the Closing Date. As described in the definitions thereof, the Total Parent Shares shall be decreased by the amount, if any, by which the Estimated Working Capital is less than the Target Working Capital and the Special Deductible shall be increased by the amount by which the Estimated Working Capital is greater than the Target Working Capital. The “Working Capital Deficiency” shall mean the amount, if any, by which the Estimated Working Capital is less than the Target Working Capital. The “Working Capital Excess” shall mean the amount, if any, by which the Estimated Working Capital exceeds the Target Working Capital. A sample calculation of Working Capital as of December 21, 2012 for illustration purposes only is attached as Exhibit A.

(b) As soon as practicable (but in no case more than 100 days) after the Closing Date, Parent shall prepare and provide to the Stockholder Representative an unaudited balance sheet of Company as of the close of business on the Closing Date (the “Proposed Closing Balance Sheet”) that has been prepared in a manner consistent with the preparation of the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet, which shall take into account any information about the assets and liabilities of Company as of the Closing that was not available to the parties at the time the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet was prepared, including any additional current liabilities, and shall also include any Company Transaction Expenses incurred prior to Closing which were not accounted for and paid at Closing. Any Company Transaction Expenses incurred following Closing shall be the sole and exclusive expenses of the Company Stockholders and shall be paid for by the Stockholder Representative. The Stockholder Representative shall provide such assistance in the preparation of the Proposed Closing Balance Sheet as shall be reasonably requested by Parent. In connection with the delivery of the Proposed Closing Balance Sheet, Parent shall also deliver to the Stockholder Representative a worksheet based on the Proposed Closing Balance Sheet which sets forth Parent’s revised calculation of the Working Capital as of the Closing Date (the “Proposed Working Capital Value”). Parent shall provide prompt access to the Stockholder Representative and her Representatives upon reasonable notice and at reasonable times to the books and records used to prepare the Proposed Closing Balance Sheet and such worksheet.

(c) Following the Stockholder Representative’s receipt of the items set forth in Section 2.9(b) above, the Stockholder Representative shall notify Parent in writing within 21 days if the Stockholder Representative disagrees with the adjustments resulting in the Proposed Working Capital Value, in which case the Stockholder Representative and Parent shall seek in good faith to resolve any differences that they may have with respect to the calculation of the Proposed Working Capital Value. If Parent has not received any such written notice from the Stockholder Representative within 21 days after delivering the items set forth in Section 2.9(b) above, then the Stockholder Representative shall be deemed to have accepted the calculation of the Proposed Working Capital Value and such value shall be deemed the “Final Working Capital Value” for purposes of this Agreement.

(d) If the parties are unable to reach an agreement on the Proposed Working Capital Value within 45 days after delivery of such Proposed Working Capital Value by Parent, then Parent and the Stockholder Representative shall jointly engage the Designated Accounting Firm promptly to determine the amount of the Final Working Capital Value, which determination shall be final and binding on the parties. In resolving any dispute with respect to the Proposed Working Capital Value, the Designated Accounting Firm shall be bound by the provisions of this Section 2.8(a) and the applicable definitions provided herein and in Section 1.1 of this Agreement and limit its review to the matters to which the Stockholder Representative disagreed as specifically set forth in the notice of objection provided by the Stockholder Representative (and only to the extent such matters are still in dispute following such 45-day period). Parent and the Stockholder Representative shall fully cooperate with the Designated Accounting Firm and promptly provide the Designated Accounting Firm with any information requested by it. The costs of the Designated Accounting Firm shall be shared equally by Parent and the Company Stockholders.

(e) If the Estimated Working Capital exceeds the Final Working Capital Value, then the Holdback Shares shall be reduced by a number of shares equal to (i) the amount by which the Estimated Working Capital Value exceeds the Final Working Capital Value divided by the (ii) the Parent Share Price; or if the Final Working Capital Value exceeds the Estimated Working Capital Value, then the Special Deductible shall be increased by the amount by which the Final Working Capital Value exceeds the Estimated Working Capital Value.

2.10 Transaction Expenses. At the Closing, Parent shall pay, or cause to be paid, to the appropriate third parties the Company Transaction Expenses in an amount not to exceed $150,000 by check or wire transfer of immediately available funds. Any Excess Company Transaction Expenses paid by Parent shall be counted as Current Liabilities.

2.11 Holdback

(a) At the Effective Time, to provide funds for the satisfaction of any claims for indemnification made by a Parent Indemnified Party under Article IX, Parent shall holdback the Holdback Shares to which each holder of Company Common Stock (each, a “Holdback Participant” and collectively, the “Holdback Participants”) is entitled pursuant to this Article II.

(b) The Holdback Shares shall remain unissued by Parent until released pursuant to Section 2.11(c) below.

(i) Within five (5) Business Days following the Expiration Date, Parent shall issue to the Holdback Participants any Holdback Shares less (i) the number of Holdback Shares canceled and no longer issuable to the Company Common Stockholders, in satisfaction of indemnification claims made by Parent prior to the Expiration Date pursuant to Article IX hereof, and (ii) a number of Holdback Shares with a value equal to the aggregate amount of indemnification claims made by Parent pursuant to Article IX hereof which remain outstanding and unresolved (the “Aggregate Outstanding Claims”), or, in the event that the Aggregate Outstanding Claims exceed the value of the remaining number of Holdback Shares, all remaining Holdback Shares (such number of retained Holdback Shares and such number of retained Holdback Shares as such amount and number may be further reduced after the Expiration Date by distributions to the Holdback Participants by Parent pursuant

to Article IX hereof and Holdback Shares canceled and no longer issuable to the Company Common Stockholders, in satisfaction of indemnification claims made by Parent prior to the Expiration Date pursuant to Article IX hereof, the “Retained Holdback Consideration”).

(ii) In the event and to the extent that after the Expiration Date any outstanding indemnification claim made by an Indemnified Person pursuant to Article IX hereof is resolved against such Indemnified Person (or is resolved in favor of an Indemnified Person but in a smaller amount than originally retained by Parent), Parent shall issue to the Holdback Participants for distribution to the Holdback Participants, an amount of the Retained Holdback Consideration with a value corresponding to the amount of the outstanding indemnification claim resolved against such Indemnified Person (or, in the case where the indemnification claim is resolved in favor of an Indemnified Person but in a smaller amount than originally retained by Parent, the difference between the amount resolved in favor of such Indemnified Person and the amount originally retained), unless the remaining Aggregate Outstanding Claims would exceed the Retained Holdback Consideration after such distribution, in which case Parent shall retain a number of Holdback Shares equal in value to the amount of the remaining Aggregate Outstanding Claims.

(iii) The Holdback Shares shall be valued at the Parent Share Price for all purposes under this Agreement.

The Stockholder Representative hereby accepts such appointment.

(b) A decision, act, consent or instruction of the Stockholder Representative hereunder shall constitute a decision, act, consent or instruction of all Company Stockholders and shall be final, binding and conclusive upon each of such Company Stockholders, and Parent and the Surviving Entity may rely upon any such decision, act, consent or instruction of the Stockholder Representative as being the decision, act, consent or instruction of each and every such Company Stockholder. The Parent and Surviving Entity shall be relieved from any Liability to any Person for any acts done by them in accordance with such decision, act, consent or instruction of the Stockholder Representative.

(e) In the event that the Stockholder Representative becomes unable or unwilling to continue in his/her capacity as the Stockholder Representative, or if the Stockholder Representative resigns as the Stockholder Representative, then another individual appointed a majority-in-interest of the Company Stockholders shall become and serve as the Stockholder Representative. Notice of such new representative (and a copy of any written consent appointing such new representative and bearing the signatures of a majority-in-interest of the Company Stockholders) must be delivered to Parent.

9.1 Survival of Representations and Warranties. The representations and warranties of Company contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing until the Expiration Date; provided, however, (a) any claim made by Parent (on behalf of itself or any Parent Indemnified Party) for which an Indemnification Claim Notice is delivered by Parent to the Stockholder Representative prior to the Expiration Date, shall survive until such claim is finally and fully resolved and (b) the rights of Parent to seek recovery of Losses arising out of any fraud or intentional misrepresentation by Company and arising out of any breach of the representations or warranties given by Company contained in Sections 3.1 (Due Organization), 3.2 (Capitalization), 3.3 (Authority; Binding Nature of Agreement), 3.6 (Sufficiency of Assets) and 3.11 (Taxes) (the “Specified Representations”) shall survive the consummation of the

Merger and remain in full force and effect until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations for the matters covered thereunder. The representations and warranties of Parent and Merger Sub shall terminate on the Expiration Date. All covenants and agreements contained herein shall survive until fully discharged. For purposes of this Agreement, each statement or other item of information set forth in the Disclosure Schedule shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty made by Company in this Agreement. The representations, warranties, covenants and obligations of Company and the rights and remedies that may be exercised by any Parent Indemnified Party, shall not be limited or otherwise affected by or as a result of any information furnished to, or any investigation made by or any knowledge of, any Parent Indemnified Party or any of their Representatives.

9.2 Indemnification in Favor of Parent. Parent and its Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, successors and assigns (each, including Parent, a “Parent Indemnified Party”) shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company Common Stockholders for and against any and all Liabilities, costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages and amounts paid in settlement (including any Liability relating to third-party claims) (each a “Loss” and, together, “Losses”), arising directly or indirectly out of or directly or indirectly connected with:

(g) the matter set forth in Section 3.9(c) of the Disclosure Schedule.

9.3 Notice of Loss.

(a) A Parent Indemnified Party shall give the Stockholder Representative notice of any matter which such Parent Indemnified Party has determined has given or could give rise to a right of indemnification under this Agreement, stating the amount of the Loss, if known, and method of computation thereof, a description in reasonable detail of the circumstances giving rise to the Loss and containing a reference to the provisions of this Agreement in respect of which such right of indemnification is claimed or arises (an “Indemnification Claim Notice”). Any failure on the part of a Parent Indemnified Party to provide notice promptly shall not limit any rights to indemnification for such Parent Indemnified Party, except to the extent such failure materially prejudices defense of such claim.

(b) In the event that the Stockholder Representative shall not dispute any Losses or amounts in the Indemnification Claim Notice, the Stockholder Representative shall as soon as practicable, but in no event greater than 30 calendar days from receipt of the Indemnification Claim Notice, instruct Parent that it may reduce the number of Holdback Shares by a number of shares with a value (based on the Parent Share Price) equal to the amount of the Loss. If the Stockholder Representative shall fail to dispute Losses within such 30 calendar days, the Stockholder Representative shall be deemed to have not disputed the Losses set forth in the Indemnification Claim Notice and Parent shall be entitled to retain such amount of Holdback Shares.

(c) In the event that the Stockholder Representative shall disagree with any Losses or amounts in the Indemnification Claim Notice within 30 calendar days following receipt of the Indemnification Claim Notice, the Stockholder Representative may deliver a notice of such disagreement (an “Indemnification Claim Dispute”) setting forth, in reasonable detail and to the extent practicable, each item or amount of Loss so disputed by the Stockholder Representative. In the event that the Stockholder Representative shall deliver to the Parent Indemnified Party an Indemnification Claim Dispute, the Parent Indemnified Party may either: (1) elect to negotiate any disputed item(s) and amount(s) of Loss or (2) seek resolution of such matter through arbitration as provided in Section 10.4.

(d) In the event that the Stockholder Representative and the Parent Indemnified Party shall reach agreement on any of the disputed items and amounts of Loss set forth in the Indemnification Claim Notice, then (A) the Stockholder Representative and the Parent Indemnified Party shall (1) execute a memorandum setting forth the resolved item(s) and/or amount(s) of Loss and (2) refer any remaining disputed item(s) and amount(s) to judicial resolution and (B) Parent shall be entitled to reduce the number of Holdback Shares by a number of shares with a value equal to the agreed upon amount.

(e) If no agreement between the Stockholder Representative and the Parent Indemnified Party on the Losses set forth in the Indemnification Claim Notice can be reached after good faith negotiation and within 30 calendar days after delivery of an Indemnification Claim Notice, either the Stockholder Representative or the Parent Indemnified Party may seek to have the matter resolved judicially unless the amount of the Loss that is at issue is the subject of a pending litigation with a Third Party, in which event judicial resolution shall not be commenced until such amount is ascertained or both parties agree to seek judicial resolution.

(f) The Stockholder Representative shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assist Parent in recovering any Losses it may validly seek to recover from the Company Common Stockholders pursuant to the provisions of this Article IX.

9.4 Third Party Claims. Promptly after the assertion by any third party of any claim against a Parent Indemnified Party that in the reasonable judgment of such Parent Indemnified Party may result in the incurrence by such Parent Indemnified Party of Losses for which such Parent Indemnified Party would be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement (each a “Third Party Claim”), such Parent Indemnified Party shall deliver to the Stockholder Representative a written notice describing in reasonable detail such claim and the Stockholder Representative may, at its option, assume the defense of the Parent Indemnified Party against such claim (including the employment of counsel, who shall be reasonably satisfactory to such Parent Indemnified Party) at the Company Common Stockholders’ expense. Any failure on the part of the Parent Indemnified Party to provide prompt notice shall not limit any of the obligations of the Company Common Stockholders (except to the extent such failure materially prejudices the defense of such claim). Any Parent Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any Third Party Claim of which the Stockholder Representative has assumed the defense and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall not be at the expense of the Company Common Stockholders unless: (i) the employment of such counsel has been

specifically authorized in writing by the Stockholder Representative, or (ii) the Parent Indemnified Party shall have been advised by counsel in writing that there would be a material conflict in the representation of the Parent Indemnified Party and the Company Stockholders by the same counsel. The Company Common Stockholders shall not be liable to indemnify any Parent Indemnified Party for any settlement of any such Third Party Claim effected without the consent of the Stockholder Representative, but if settled with the written consent of the Stockholder Representative, or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such action, the Company Common Stockholders shall indemnify and hold harmless each Parent Indemnified Party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment, subject to the limitations set forth in this Article IX. The Parent Indemnified Parties agree to reasonably cooperate in all matters covered by this Section 9.4, including, as required, the furnishing of books and records, personnel and witnesses and the execution of documents, in each case as necessary for any defense of such third party claim and at no cost to the Company Common Stockholders.

9.5 Limits on Indemnification.

(a) No claim may be asserted nor may any Proceeding be commenced against any Company Stockholder for breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained herein, unless an Indemnification Claim Notice relating to such claim or Proceeding is given to the Stockholder Representative on or prior to the date on which the representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on which such claim or Proceeding is based ceases to survive as set forth in Section 9.1, irrespective of whether the subject matter of such claim or Proceeding shall have occurred before or after such date.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement:

(i) No Company Stockholder shall be liable for any claim for indemnification for monetary damages pursuant to Section 9.2 unless and until the aggregate amount of indemnifiable Losses that may be recovered from the Company Common Stockholders equals or exceeds the Special Deductible, after which, subject to the other limitations set forth in this Article IX, the Company Common Stockholders shall be liable for the amount of such Losses in excess of the Special Deductible;

(ii) In addition to the limitation on liability set forth in Section 9.5(b)(i), and after such limitation has been satisfied, and other than with respect to the Specified Representations, no Company Stockholder shall be liable for any claim for indemnification for monetary damages pursuant to Section 9.2(a) unless and until the aggregate amount of indemnifiable Losses which may be recovered from the Company Common Stockholders pursuant to Section 9.2(a) equals or exceeds the Deductible, after which, subject to the other limitations set forth in this Article IX, the Company Common Stockholders shall be liable for the amount of such Losses in excess of the Deductible;

(iii) other than with respect to the Specified Representations, the maximum aggregate amount of monetary damages for indemnifiable Losses which may be recovered from the Company Common Stockholders arising out of or resulting from the causes set forth in Section 9.2(a) shall be equal to the aggregate value of the Holdback Shares, calculated using the Parent Share Price (the “Cap”), and prior to the Expiration Date, and subject to the other limitations set forth in this Article IX, Parent’s right to hold back and not issue Holdback Shares shall be the sole source of recovery for such indemnifiable Losses;

(iv) Parent shall not be entitled to seek recovery of indemnifiable Losses directly from any Company Stockholder unless and until all Holdback Shares have been validly held back in satisfaction of Company Stockholder indemnification obligations under this Article IX;

(v) in satisfaction of a Company Stockholder’s indemnification obligation in respect of any indemnifiable Losses for which Parent may seek recovery directly from a Company Stockholder, the Company Stockholder may, at its option, (a) remit Parent Shares to Parent (with a value calculated based on the Parent Share Price), (b) pay cash to Parent or (c) do a combination of (a) and (b).

(vi) in no event shall a Company Stockholder’s liability to any Parent Indemnified Party for a given indemnifiable Loss incurred by the Parent Indemnified Party exceed the Company Stockholder’s Stockholder Pro Rata Share of such Loss, and each Company Stockholder’s aggregate liability under this Article IX shall not exceed the aggregate value (based on the Parent Share Price) of all Parent Shares received by the Company Stockholder and the Company Stockholder’s Stockholder Pro Rata Share of the Holdback Shares; and

(vii) notwithstanding the foregoing, the limitations on damages set forth in Sections 9.5(b)(ii) and 9.5(b)(iii) shall not apply in the case of fraud or intentional misrepresentation by the Company.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in the event of any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty which includes any qualification as to “materiality” or “Material Adverse Effect” for purposes of determining the amount of any Loss with respect to such breach or inaccuracy, no effect will be given to such qualification as to “materiality” or a “Material Adverse Effect” contained therein (for the avoidance of doubt, such qualifications would continue to apply to the determination as to whether or not a breach or inaccuracy had occurred, but not in the determination of the amount of the Loss.

(d) Any former Company Common Stockholders and any officers or directors of Company shall not have any right of contribution, indemnification or right of advancement from Parent, or any other Parent Indemnified Party with respect to any Loss claimed by a Parent Indemnified Party.

(e) “Losses” shall not include punitive or special damages, except for punitive or special damages recovered by a third party in a Third Party Claim. A Parent Indemnified Party’s Losses shall be calculated net of any insurance proceeds actually received by the Parent Indemnified Party (less reasonable costs of recovery of such proceeds).

(f) No Parent Indemnified Party other than Parent is entitled to bring or pursue any claim under this Article IX for Losses, and Parent shall bring and pursue any such claim, and deliver and Indemnification Claim Notice, on behalf of all Parent Indemnified Parties.

9.6 Exclusive Remedy. Except as otherwise provided herein, Parent acknowledges and agrees that following the Closing, the indemnification provisions of this Article IX shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Parent Indemnified Parties for recovery of Losses incurred by the Parent Indemnified Parties arising out of or relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except that the foregoing clause shall not be deemed a waiver by Parent of any right or remedy arising by reason of any claim of fraud or intentional misrepresentation with respect to this Agreement.

10.2 Interpretation. When a reference is made in this Agreement to Exhibits or Schedules, such reference shall be to an Exhibit or Schedule to this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. The words “include,” “includes” and “including” when used herein shall be deemed in each case to be followed by the words “without limitation.” The phrase “made available” in this Agreement shall mean that the information referred to has been made available if requested by the party to whom such information is to be made available. The phrases “the date of this Agreement”, “the date hereof”, and terms of similar import, unless the context otherwise requires, shall be deemed to refer to the date set forth in the first paragraph of this Agreement. The table of contents and headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

10.3 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware (without giving effect to principles of conflicts of laws).

10.4 Dispute Resolution. The parties hereby agree that, in order to obtain prompt and expeditious resolution of any disputes under this Agreement, each claim, dispute or controversy of whatever nature, arising out of, in connection with, or in relation to the interpretation, performance or breach of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, including any claim based on contract, tort or statute, or the arbitrability of any claim hereunder (an “Arbitrable Claim”), shall be settled by final and binding arbitration conducted in San Francisco, California. All such Arbitrable Claims shall be settled by one arbitrator in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules then in effect of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). Such arbitrator shall be provided through AAA by mutual agreement of the parties; provided, that, absent such agreement, the arbitrator shall be appointed by AAA. In either event, the arbitrator may not have any preexisting, direct or indirect relationship with any party to the dispute. Each party hereto expressly consents to, and waives any future objection to, such forum and arbitration rules. Judgment upon any award may be entered by any state or federal court having jurisdiction thereof. Except as required by applicable Laws (including the Laws of the SEC and the NASDAQ National Market, if applicable), neither party nor the arbitrator shall disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration hereunder without the prior written consent of all parties. Adherence to this dispute resolution process shall not limit the right of the parties hereto to obtain any provisional remedy, including injunctive or similar relief, from any court of competent jurisdiction as may be necessary to protect their respective rights and interests pending arbitration. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, this dispute resolution procedure is intended to be the exclusive method of resolving any Arbitrable Claims arising out of or relating to this Agreement. The arbitration procedures shall follow the substantive law of the State of Delaware, including the provisions of statutory law dealing with arbitration, as it may exist at the time of the demand for arbitration, insofar as said provisions are not in conflict with this Agreement and specifically excepting therefrom sections of any such statute dealing with discovery and sections requiring notice of the hearing date by registered or certified mail. The arbitrator shall determine the prevailing party and shall include in the award that party’s reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs.

10.5 Severability. In the event that any of the terms, conditions or provisions of this Agreement shall be determined to be invalid, unlawful, or unenforceable to any extent, such term, condition or provision shall be severed from the remaining terms, conditions and provisions, which shall continue to be valid to the fullest extent permitted by Law.

10.6 Specific Performance; Attorneys’ Fees. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any provision of this Agreement is not performed in accordance with the terms

hereof and that the parties shall be entitled to seek specific performance of the terms hereof, in addition to any other remedy at law or equity, without the necessity of demonstrating the inadequacy of money damages. If any claim, action, suit, litigation, arbitration, inquiry, investigation or other Proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of any provision of this Agreement is commenced, brought or conducted against any party to this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be awarded its reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses incurred (in addition to any other relief to which the prevailing party may be entitled).

10.7 Assignment; Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall not be assigned by Company without the prior written consent of Parent. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement will be binding on, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by and against the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto. This Agreement shall not confer any rights or remedies upon any person other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, except as specifically set forth in Section 6.6, and except that the Parent Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to their respective rights and remedies under Article X.

10.8 Entire Agreement; Amendment and Waiver. This Agreement, including the attachments hereto, constitutes the entire agreement of the parties related to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any and all prior or contemporaneous agreements or communications (whether written or oral) related to the subject matter hereof. No amendment of any provision of this Agreement shall be valid unless the same shall be in writing and signed by each of the parties hereto. No waiver by any party of any condition or breach of this Agreement shall be valid unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the party making such waiver nor shall such waiver be deemed to extend to any other condition or subsequent breach hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any prior or subsequent breach.

10.9 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original for all purposes and all of which, together, shall constitute the same instrument.

10.10 Rules of Construction. The parties hereto agree that they have been represented by counsel during the negotiation, preparation and execution of this Agreement and, therefore, waive the application of any law, regulation, holding or rule of construction providing that ambiguities in an agreement or other document shall be construed against the party drafting such agreement or document.
