WHEREAS, Purchaser, Acquisition Subs, the Company and Seller Representative intend that the Mergers are integrated steps in the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and for U.S. federal income tax purposes that this Agreement constitute a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Section 1.368-2(g) of the Treasury Regulations promulgated under the Code;

WHEREAS, the board of directors of each of the Company, Purchaser (on its own behalf and as the sole equityholder of Acquisition Subs) and Acquisition Sub I and the managing member of Acquisition Sub II has (a) determined that it is in the best interests of such entity, as applicable, and such entity’s respective equityholders, and declared it advisable for such entity, to enter into this Agreement, (b) approved the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Mergers, and (c) resolved, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to recommend adoption of this Agreement by the stockholders or members of such entity (to the extent such adoption and approval is required);

The First Merger will have the effects provided in this Agreement and as specified in the DGCL.

(c) Immediately after the First Effective Time, the Company and Acquisition Sub II will file a certificate of merger (the “Second Merger Certificate”) with the Delaware Secretary of State and make all other filings or recordings required by the DGCL and the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act (“DLLCA”) in connection with the Second Merger. The Second Merger will become effective at such time (the “Effective Time”) as the filing of the Second Merger Certificate is duly deemed effective by the Delaware Secretary of State (or at such later time as may be agreed to by the parties hereto and duly specified in the Second Merger Certificate in accordance with applicable Law).

(d) At the Effective Time, the Company will be merged with and into Acquisition Sub II in accordance with the DGCL and the DLLCA. As a result of the Second Merger, the separate existence of the Company will cease, and Acquisition Sub II will continue as the surviving entity of the Second Merger (the “Surviving Entity”) as a wholly-owned Subsidiary of Purchaser. The Second Merger will have the effects provided in this Agreement and as specified in the DGCL and the DLLCA.

(e) From and after the Effective Time, the Surviving Entity will possess all the properties, rights, powers, privileges and franchises and be subject to all of the debts, obligations, liabilities, restrictions duties and disabilities of the Company and Acquisition Sub II, all as provided under the DGCL.

1.2 Effects of the Mergers. The Mergers shall have the effects set forth in the DGCL and the DLLCA. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and subject thereto, at the Effective Time, all the properties, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Company and Acquisition Subs shall vest in the Surviving Entity and all debts, liabilities and duties of the Company and Acquisition Subs shall become the debts, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Entity.

1.3

Organizational Documents.

(a) First Surviving Corporation. At the First Effective Time: (i) the certificate of incorporation of the First Surviving Corporation shall be amended and restated so as to read as set forth in the First Certificate of Merger, and, as so amended and restated, shall be the certificate of incorporation of the First Surviving Corporation until thereafter amended in accordance with the terms thereof and applicable Law; and (ii) the by-laws of the Company as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the by-laws of the First Surviving Corporation, until thereafter amended in accordance with the terms thereof, the certificate of incorporation of the First Surviving Corporation, and applicable Law.

(b) Surviving Entity. At the Effective Time: (i) the certificate of formation of Acquisition Sub II, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be the certificate of formation of the Surviving Entity until thereafter amended in accordance with the terms thereof and applicable Law; and (ii) the operating agreement of Acquisition Sub II, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be the operating agreement of the Surviving Entity, until thereafter amended in accordance with the terms thereof, the certificate of formation of the Surviving Entity, and applicable Law, except that the name of the Surviving Entity shall be Zonehaven LLC.

1.4

Board of Directors, Manager and Officers.

(a) The directors and officers of Acquisition Sub I, in each case, immediately prior to the First Effective Time shall, from and after the First Effective Time, be the directors and officers, respectively, of the First Surviving Corporation until their successors have been duly elected or appointed and qualified or until their earlier death, resignation, or removal in accordance with the certificate of incorporation and by-laws of the First Surviving Corporation.

(b) At the Effective Time, Purchaser shall be the managing member of the Surviving Entity, and officers of the Surviving Entity shall be the directors and officers, respectively, of the Surviving Entity immediately prior to the Effective Time, each to hold the office until their respective successors are duly elected or appointed and qualified or until their earlier death, resignation, or removal in accordance with the limited liability company agreement of the Surviving Entity.

1.5

Conversion of Shares.

(a) Common Stock. At the First Effective Time, each Share, other than (i) Shares held in the Company’s treasury and (ii) Appraisal Shares, shall, by virtue of the First Merger and without any action on the part of Acquisition Subs, the Company or the holder thereof, be canceled, extinguished and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the sum of (A) the Per Share Cash Amount, (B) the Per Share Stock Amount, (C) the Per Share Indemnity Distribution Amount, and (D) the Per Share Expense Fund Amount.

(b) Acquisition Sub I Shares. Each share of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of Acquisition Sub I (“Acquisition Sub I Common Stock”), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the First Effective Time, will be converted into one validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the First Surviving Corporation. As of the First Effective Time, the shares of Acquisition Sub I Common Stock will no longer be outstanding and will automatically be canceled and will cease to exist, and the holder or holders of such shares will cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive shares of common stock in the First Surviving Corporation to be issued in consideration therefore as provided herein, without interest. After the First Effective Time, Purchaser will be the holder of all of the issued and outstanding shares of the First Surviving Corporation’s common stock.

(c) Treasury Shares. At the First Effective Time, each Share held in the treasury of the Company and each Share held by Purchaser, Acquisition Sub I or any other Affiliate of Purchaser immediately prior to the First Effective Time shall, by virtue of the First Merger and without any action on the part of Acquisition Sub I, the Company or the holder thereof, be canceled and retired and cease to exist and no payment shall be made with respect thereto.

(d) Acquisition Sub II Membership Interests. At the Effective Time, as a result of the Second Merger and without any action on the part of Purchaser, Acquisition Subs, or the Company or any holder of capital stock of Purchaser, Acquisition Sub I, or the Company or the holder of any membership interests in Acquisition Sub II, each share of the First Surviving Corporation’s common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and become one common unit of the Surviving Entity, and each common unit of Acquisition Sub II issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall remain outstanding as a common unit of the Surviving Entity.

1.6 Appraisal Rights. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, each Share that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the First Effective Time and that is held by a Stockholder who has properly exercised and perfected appraisal rights under Section 262 of the DGCL or Chapter 13 of the California Corporations Code (“CCC”), if applicable (the “Appraisal Shares”) shall not be converted into or exchangeable for the right to receive the aggregate consideration payable hereunder in respect of such Share, but shall be entitled to receive such consideration as shall be determined pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL or under Chapter 13 of the CCC, if applicable; provided, however, that if such Stockholder fails to perfect or effectively withdraws or loses the right to appraisal and payment under the DGCL or under Chapter 13 of the CCC, if applicable, each Share held by such Stockholder shall thereupon be deemed to have been converted into and to have become exchangeable for, as of the First Effective Time, the right to receive the aggregate consideration payable hereunder in respect of such Share without interest, and such Share shall no longer be an Appraisal Share. The Company shall provide notice in accordance with the DGCL and CCC, if applicable, to each Stockholder entitled to appraisal rights; provided, however, that if Stockholder Approval is obtained by consent pursuant to Section 228 of the DGCL, the Company shall provide notice promptly after the Stockholder Approval is obtained. The Company shall give prompt notice to Purchaser of any demands received by the Company for appraisals of the Shares, Purchaser shall have the right to direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands (provided that the Acquisition Subs shall bear all costs and fees associated with such proceedings), and the Company shall cooperate with Purchaser in connection therewith and take all actions reasonably requested by Purchaser.

1.7

Letter of Transmittal; Exchange of Shares.

(a) Prior to the Closing, Purchaser shall engage the Payment Agent. Promptly after the date hereof (but in no event later than one (1) Business Day thereafter), Purchaser shall cause a letter of transmittal substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (each, a “Letter of Transmittal”) to be delivered to each Stockholder. After the Effective Time, each Stockholder, upon submission of a duly executed Letter of Transmittal, shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor by check or wire transfer (as selected by such holder) that portion of the Purchase Price as provided herein, and any certificate or certificates representing Shares owned by such Stockholder (collectively, the “Certificates”) shall be marked as canceled.

(b) If any consideration is to be paid to a Person other than the Person in whose name the Certificate representing the Shares to be cancelled in exchange therefor is registered, it shall be a condition to such payment that the Person requesting such transfer and payment shall deliver all documents required to evidence and effect such transfer.

(c) In the event that any Certificate for Shares shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, the Payment Agent shall pay such portion of the Purchase Price as may be required pursuant to this Agreement in exchange therefor upon the making of an affidavit of that fact and the granting of a standard indemnity with respect thereto by the holder thereof and as a condition precedent to the payment of any Purchase Price attributable to such Shares.

(d) At the close of business on the day of the First Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed and thereafter there shall be no transfers of any Shares. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 1.7, each Certificate shall be deemed at any time after the First Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender such portion of the Purchase Price as may be required pursuant to this Agreement in exchange for such security represented by such Certificate. If, after the First Effective Time, Certificates are presented to the Surviving Entity, they shall be canceled, delivered to the Payment Agent and exchanged for the respective portion of the Purchase Price they represent, as provided in this Article 1.

1.8 Stock Options. At or prior to the First Effective Time, the Company shall take all action necessary (including obtaining any necessary consents of the board of directors of the Company or a committee thereof) such that each Company Option outstanding immediately prior to the First Effective Time, shall, at the First Effective Time be cancelled and terminated without any further action on the part of the Company.

ARTICLE 2

PURCHASE PRICE AND PAYMENT

2.1 Purchase Price. The aggregate purchase price (the “Purchase Price”) for the Shares at Closing shall be an amount equal to (a) $24,200,000, minus (b) the Escrow Amount, minus (c) the amount of the Expense Fund, minus (d) an amount equal to the Closing Indebtedness, minus (e) an amount equal to the Selling Expenses, minus (f) an amount equal to any Change in Control Payments.

2.2 Estimated Purchase Price; Payments.

(a) Estimated Purchase Price. On the 2^nd Business Day before the Closing Date, the Company shall estimate in good faith the amount of the Closing Indebtedness, the Selling Expenses, and Change in Control Payments, respectively, as of the Effective Time and deliver to Purchaser for its review and approval a certificate (the “Closing Certificate”) setting forth such estimates and the calculation of the Estimated Purchase Price. Following delivery of the Closing Certificate, Purchaser will have the right to make reasonable inquiries regarding and suggested changes to the Closing Certificate and the estimates included therein, including without limitation the Estimated Purchase Price, and the Company shall prior to the Closing Date provide to Purchaser such additional information and answers to such inquiries, and Purchaser, the Company and the Seller Representative shall come to mutual agreement with respect to the estimates set forth in the Closing Certificate. As used herein, “Estimated Closing Indebtedness,” “Estimated Selling Expenses,” and “Estimated Change in Control Payments” mean the estimates of the Closing Indebtedness, the Selling Expenses, and the Change in Control Payments, respectively, set forth in the Closing Certificate, and “Estimated Purchase Price” means an amount equal to the Purchase Price calculated as set forth in Section 2.1, assuming for purposes of such calculation that the Closing Indebtedness is equal to the Estimated Closing Indebtedness, that the Selling Expenses are equal to the Estimated Selling Expenses, and that the Change in Control Payments are equal to the Estimated Change in Control Payments.

(b) Closing Payments. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the Closing, Purchaser shall:

(i) deliver the cash portion of the Estimated Purchase Price (as calculated based upon the Closing Certificate) to the Payment Agent, for payment by the Payment Agent to the Stockholders in the percentages, amounts and to the accounts set forth on the Consideration Spreadsheet following receipt by the Payment Agent of each item required by Section 1.7;

(ii) on behalf of the Company, pay the Selling Expenses and the Change in Control Payments as set forth on the Consideration Spreadsheet;

(iii) deliver the Escrow Amount to the Escrow Agent;

(iv) on behalf of the Company, pay the Indebtedness of the Company identified in Schedule 2.2 (collectively, the “Repaid Closing Indebtedness”); and

(v) deliver the Expense Fund to the Seller Representative.

(c) Purchaser Stock. Following the Closing Date, promptly following receipt from such Stockholder of each item required by Section 1.7, Purchaser shall cause to be issued to such Stockholder shares of Purchaser Stock equal to such Stockholder’s Per Share Stock Amount as set forth on the Consideration Spreadsheet.

2.3 Post-Closing Adjustment of Purchase Price.

(a) Adjustment Statement Preparation. Within 120 days after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall cause to be prepared and delivered to Seller Representative, an adjustment statement setting forth the amount of the Closing Indebtedness, the Selling Expenses, and the Change in Control Payments, respectively, as of Effective Time (the “Preliminary Adjustment Statement”) and, based on the Closing Indebtedness, the Selling Expenses, and the Change in Control Payments as derived therefrom, Purchaser’s written calculation of the Purchase Price, and the adjustment necessary to reconcile the Estimated Purchase Price to the Purchase Price (the “Preliminary Post-Closing Adjustment”). The Preliminary Adjustment Statement and the Final Adjustment Statement shall be prepared in a manner consistent with, and using the same accounting methods, policies, practices and procedures as used in the preparation of, the Interim Financial Statements, except that the Preliminary Adjustment Statement and the Final Adjustment Statement shall only reflect those items necessary to calculate the Closing Indebtedness, the Selling Expenses, and the Change in Control Payments.

(b) Adjustment Statement Review. Seller Representative shall review the Preliminary Adjustment Statement and the Preliminary Post-Closing Adjustment and, if Seller Representative believes that it was not prepared in accordance with Section 2.3(a), Seller Representative shall so notify Purchaser in writing no later than 45 days after Seller Representative’s receipt thereof, setting forth in such notice, Seller Representative’s objection or objections to the Preliminary Adjustment Statement or the Preliminary Post-Closing Adjustment with reasonable particularity of the adjustments which Seller Representative claims are required to be made thereto to conform the same to the terms of Section 2.3(a). Purchaser shall cause the Company and its employees, agents and Representatives to reasonably cooperate with Seller Representative in its review of the Preliminary Adjustment Statement and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, shall cause the Books and Records to be made available during normal business hours to Seller Representative.

(c) Adjustment Statement Dispute Resolution. If Seller Representative timely notifies Purchaser in accordance with Section 2.3(b) of an objection to the Preliminary Adjustment Statement or the Preliminary Post-Closing Adjustment, and if Purchaser and Seller Representative are unable to resolve such dispute through good faith negotiations within 30 days after Seller Representative’s delivery of such written notice of objection, then, the parties shall mutually engage and submit such dispute to, and the same shall be finally resolved in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement by Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx LLP, or other accounting firm mutually determined by Purchaser and Seller Representative, in any case acting as an expert and not an arbitrator (the “Independent Accountants”). Purchaser and Seller Representative shall have the opportunity to present their positions with respect to such disputed matters to the Independent Accountants in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.3. The Independent Accountants shall determine and report in writing to Purchaser and Seller Representative as to the resolution of all disputed matters submitted to the Independent Accountants and the effect of such determinations on the Preliminary Adjustment Statement and the Preliminary Post-Closing Adjustment within 20 days after such submission or such longer period as the Independent Accountants may reasonably require, and such determinations shall be final, binding and conclusive as to Purchaser, Seller Representative and the Stockholders. With respect to each disputed item, the Independent Accountants shall adopt a position that is either equal to Purchaser’s proposed position, equal to Seller Representative’s proposed position, or between the positions proposed by Purchaser and Seller Representative. The costs and expenses of the Independent Accountants shall be allocated between Purchaser and Seller Representative based upon the percentage that the portion of the contested amount not awarded to each party bears to the amount actually contested by such party. For example, if Seller Representative claims the Preliminary Post-Closing Adjustment is $1,000 greater than the amount determined by Purchaser, and Purchaser contests only $500 of the amount claimed by Seller Representative, and if the Independent Accountants ultimately awards Seller Representative $300 of the $500 contested, then the costs and expenses of the Independent Accountants shall be allocated 60% (i.e., 300 ÷ 500) to Purchaser and 40% (i.e., 200 ÷ 500) to Seller Representative.

(d) Final Adjustment Statement and Post-Closing Adjustment. The Preliminary Adjustment Statement and the Preliminary Post-Closing Adjustment shall become the “Final Adjustment Statement” and the “Final Post-Closing Adjustment” respectively, and as such shall become final, binding and conclusive upon Purchaser, Seller Representative and their respective Affiliates for all purposes of this Agreement, upon the earliest to occur of the following:

(i) the mutual acceptance by Purchaser and Seller Representative of the Preliminary Adjustment Statement and the Preliminary Post-Closing Adjustment, respectively, with such adjustments thereto, if any, as may be proposed by Seller Representative and consented to by Purchaser;

(ii) the expiration of 45 days after Seller Representative’s receipt of the Preliminary Adjustment Statement and the Preliminary Post-Closing Adjustment, respectively, without timely written objection thereto by Seller Representative in accordance with Section 2.3(b); and

(iii) the delivery to Purchaser and Seller Representative by the Independent Accountants of the report of its determination of all disputed matters submitted pursuant to Section 2.3(c).

(e) Adjustment of Purchase Price. If the Purchase Price, as finally determined in accordance with Section 2.3, is greater than the Estimated Purchase Price (such excess amount, the “Surplus Amount”), then Purchaser shall pay the Surplus Amount by deposit of such amount with the Payment Agent for further distribution to the Stockholders in accordance with this Agreement. If the Purchase Price, as finally determined in accordance with Section 2.3, is less than the Estimated Purchase Price, then Seller Representative and Purchaser shall jointly instruct the Escrow Agent to release to Purchaser from the Escrow Amount such deficit up to the entire Escrow Amount. The Stockholders shall have no liabilities in this Section 2.3(e) beyond the Escrow Amount. The Final Post-Closing Adjustment, if any, shall be due and payable pursuant to this Section 2.3(e) no later than two Business Days after the Preliminary Adjustment Statement and the Preliminary Post-Closing Adjustment become the Final Adjustment Statement and the Final Post-Closing Adjustment, respectively, pursuant to Section 2.3(d).

2.4 Withholding. Notwithstanding any provision contained herein to the contrary, each of Purchaser, the Company, the Surviving Entity, the Payment Agent and the Seller Representative shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable to any Person pursuant to or contemplated by this Agreement such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under any provision of Tax Law, provided, that the applicable withholding Person shall give reasonable prior written notice, of at least 5 days, of their intent to deduct or withhold from any payments (other than compensatory payments) to the Person with respect to which such deduction or withholding is to be made so as to provide such recipient with an opportunity to provide any form or documentation or take such other steps in order to avoid such withholding. If such Person so withholds amounts, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to such Person in respect of which Purchaser made such deduction and withholding. Purchaser shall timely pay any such withheld amounts to the appropriate taxing authority.

No request for a waiver or extension of the time to assess or collect any Taxes of the Company has been made which waiver or extension remains in effect. No income Tax Return of the Company is under current examination by any Tax Authority. There is no claim for Taxes (other than Taxes not yet due and payable) that has resulted in a Lien except a Permitted Lien against any of the assets of the Company.

(g) There are no rulings from, or closing agreements (under Section 7121 of the Code or any corresponding or similar provision of state, local, or foreign Tax Law) or similar arrangements with, any Tax Authority with regard to the determination of the Tax liability of the Company that would have continuing effect on periods (or portions thereof) ending after the Closing Date, and none has been requested. No power of attorney with respect to Taxes has been granted with respect to the Company that remains in effect.

(h) The Company will not be required to include any material item of income in, or exclude any material item of deduction from, taxable income for any taxable period (or portion thereof) ending after the Closing Date as a result of any (i) adjustment under Section 481 of the Code as a result of a change in method of accounting made in a period ending on or before the Closing Date, (ii) installment sale or open transaction disposition made on or prior to the Closing Date, (iii) election under Section 108(i) of the Code made on or prior to the Closing Date or (iv) prepaid amount received or deferred revenue accrued on or prior to the Closing Date.

4.11 Real Property. The Company does not own or lease and has never owned or leased any real property.

4.12 Tangible Personal Property. Schedule 4.12 sets forth all leases of personal property (“Personal Property Leases”) involving annual payments in excess of $20,000 relating to personal property used in the business of the Company or to which the Company is a party or by which the properties or assets of the Company is bound. The Company has provided to Purchaser true, correct and complete copies of the Personal Property Leases, together with all amendments, modifications or supplements thereto. The Company has a valid leasehold interest under each of the Personal Property Leases under which it is a lessee, 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 (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding at law or in equity), and there is no default under any Personal Property Lease by the Company or, to the knowledge of the Company, by any other party thereto, and, to the Company’s knowledge, no event has occurred that with the lapse of time or the giving of notice or both would constitute a default thereunder. The Company has good and marketable title to all of the items of tangible personal property reflected in the Balance Sheet (except as sold or disposed of subsequent to the date thereof in the Ordinary Course of Business), free and clear of any and all Liens except Permitted Liens.

4.13 Intellectual Property; Systems; Data Privacy.

(a) The Company is the exclusive owner of or has the exclusive right to use all Intellectual Property related to, reasonably necessary for, or used in the Company’s business (“Company Intellectual Property”). The Company Intellectual Property includes all Embodiments and Intellectual Property used in connection with the Company’s business. No Company Intellectual Property is in the control of any Person other than the Company or subject to the payment of any fee, penalty or other compensation to any other Person. No Company Intellectual Property, including Company Registrations is subject to any Lien (except Permitted Liens) or Order, and no Action is pending or, to the Company’s knowledge, threatened which challenges the legality, validity, enforceability, use or ownership of any of the Company Intellectual Property. The Company shall, immediately following the Closing, continue to own or have valid rights or licenses as are sufficient to use all of the Company Intellectual Property and Embodiments to the same extent as prior to the Closing. The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall not result in the material loss or impairment of the Company’s rights in any Company Intellectual Property or Embodiments and shall not result in the breach of, or create on behalf of any third party, the right to terminate or modify any Material Contract as to which the Company is a party and pursuant to which the Company is authorized or licensed to use any third party Intellectual Property. The Company has not agreed to assign or otherwise transfer ownership of, any Owned Intellectual Property, in whole or in part, to any other Person.

Since the Company’s inception, there has been no failure or other material substandard performance of any System, in each case which has caused a material disruption to the Company. The Company maintains commercially reasonable backup and data recovery, disaster recovery, and business continuity plans, procedures, and facilities and tests such plans and procedures on a regular basis, and such plans and procedures have been proven effective in all material respects upon such testing. To the Company’s knowledge, the Systems do not contain any “back door,” “time bomb,” “Trojan horse,” “worm,” “drop dead device,” “virus” (as these terms are commonly used in the computer Software industry), or other Software routines or hardware components intentionally designed to permit unauthorized access, to maliciously disable or erase Software, hardware, or data. To the Company’s knowledge, the Company is not in breach of any of its Contracts relating to Systems. The Company has appropriate disaster recovery plans, procedures and facilities for its businesses and has taken steps to safeguard the information technology Systems utilized in the operation of the business of the Company as it is currently conducted.

The Company is the sole and exclusive owner of all Software components and Embodiments that make up, are incorporated, embedded or used in its proprietary Software and products, including all improvements, modifications, derivatives, and developments related thereto. The Company has not conducted any development work or created any customized Software, improvements, modifications, features or other work product or deliverable for any Person (other than the Company) that is based on or related to its proprietary Software and products. No funding, facilities, or personnel of any Governmental Body were used, directly or indirectly, to develop or create, in whole or in part, any Owned Intellectual Property. The Company has taken steps reasonable under the circumstances to maintain the confidentiality of all information that the Company currently holds as a Trade Secret.

(f) Schedule 4.13(f) lists all Open Source Software contained in or used in the development of the Company Intellectual Property or any product or service of the Company. The Company is in compliance with all Contracts relating to Open Source Software, including attribution and notice obligations. The Company has not used any Open Source Software in a manner that would (i) require any Company Intellectual Property to be disclosed, delivered, distributed, licensed or otherwise made available in source code form, (ii) limit the Company’s freedom to seek full compensation in connection with the marketing, licensing or distribution of any of the products or services of the Company’s business, (iii) allows a third party to decompile, disassemble or otherwise reverse engineer any Company Intellectual Property, or (iv) grant any patent license, non-assertion covenant, or other rights under any Company Intellectual Property.

There have been no security breaches relating to, or violations of any security policy regarding, or any unauthorized access, loss, or misuses of, any Personal Information, data, confidential information or Trade Secrets information or facilities used by the Company, nor has the Company been adversely affected by any denial of service attacks. Each current and former employees, contractors, consultants, and advisors of the Company and any other Persons who contributed to the development of the Company Intellectual Property in any way have executed a Contract that assigned to the Company all the respective Person’s rights to any inventions, improvements, discoveries or information relating to the Company Intellectual Property and the substantial form of such Contracts, as well as any such Contracts which materially deviate from such form, have been delivered to Purchaser. The Company has taken reasonable measures to (i) safeguard and maintain the security, secrecy and confidentiality of the Trade Secrets that are part of the Intellectual Property owned by the Company or that the Company is otherwise bound by Contract to safeguard and maintain, and (ii) protect the confidentiality of all confidential information of the Company, including in each case requiring all employees, contractors and third Persons having access thereto to execute written confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements. To the Company’s knowledge, there has been no material disclosure by any Person bound by such confidentiality obligations to any third Person who was not bound by a confidentiality obligation to the Company of any such Trade Secrets.

(h) For each web site owned and controlled by the Company, the Company has provided and does provide a privacy policy posted in a reasonably clear and conspicuous location on each such web site that complies in all material respects with all applicable privacy and data security Laws, copies of which have been made available to Purchaser (“Company Privacy Policies”).

Except for trademarks that are not currently being used, such as intent-to-use trademark registrations and applications, all trademarks are in use in the form appearing in, and in connection with the goods and services listed in, their respective registration certificates (with respect to registered trademarks) or applications (with respect to unregistered trademarks for which an application has been filed). The Company has used commercially reasonable efforts to protect its rights in such patents and registered and material unregistered trademarks, and there have been no acts or omissions by the Company the result of which would be to compromise in any material respect the rights of the Company to apply for or enforce appropriate legal protection of such patents and registered and material unregistered trademarks.

(j) To the knowledge of the Company, the Company owns or otherwise has sufficient right to use all Intellectual Property needed to conduct its business as currently conducted.

The Company is, and at all times has been in substantial compliance with all Laws, domestic and international, pertaining to sales and marketing, including, without limitation, the CAN-SPAM Act, the Telephone Consumer Protection Act, the Telemarketing Sales Rule.

7.3 Indemnification, Exculpation and Insurance.

(a) Purchaser agrees that all rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation by the Company now existing in favor of each Person who is now, or has been at any time prior to the date hereof or who becomes prior to the Closing Date, an officer or director of the Company (collectively, the “Covered Persons”), as provided in the Governing Documents of such entity, in each case as in effect on the date of this Agreement, shall survive the Closing Date and shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their respective terms for a period of six years following the Closing Date; provided that no such indemnification shall apply to any claim against any of the foregoing arising out of a breach of this Agreement, any ancillary agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

(b) The Company shall, prior to the Closing, purchase for the benefit of the Covered Persons, a six-year extended reporting period endorsement under the existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies of such Company (the “Tail Insurance Policy”), providing that such endorsement shall extend the directors’ and officers’ liability coverage in force as of the date hereof for a period of six years from the Closing for any claims arising from events which occurred prior to the Closing. Purchaser shall (i) upon the request of the Seller Representative, cooperate reasonably with the Seller Representative to make any claim for coverage under any such policy and take any action reasonably requested by the Seller Representative to obtain reimbursement for covered Losses under any such policy or to otherwise enforce any such policy or any provision thereof, (ii) promptly inform the Seller Representative of any communication received by Purchaser or, after the Closing, received by the Company, from, or given by Purchaser or, after the Closing, by the Company, to any Person issuing any such insurance policy, and (iii) upon Seller Representative’s request, promptly furnish to Seller Representative certificates of insurance evidencing such policy.

7.4 Publicity. None of the Company, Stockholders, or Purchaser shall issue any press release or public announcement concerning this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby without obtaining the prior written approval of the other parties hereto, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, unless such disclosure is otherwise required by applicable Law or by the applicable rules of any stock exchange; provided that, to the extent required by applicable Law, the party intending to make such release shall use commercially reasonable efforts consistent with such applicable Law to consult with the other party with respect to the text thereof.

7.5 Taxes.

(a) All Tax Returns required to be prepared pursuant to this Section 7.5 shall be prepared and filed in a manner consistent with prior practice, except as required by applicable Law.

(b) Seller Representative, at the cost and expense of the Seller Representative, shall cause the Company to prepare and file all income Tax Returns of the Company for any taxable period ending on or prior to the Closing Date that are required to be filed after the Closing Date (“Seller Income Tax Returns”). Seller Representative shall prepare and deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Purchaser for its review and comment all Seller Income Tax Returns that are required to be filed after the Closing Date 30 days prior to the due date for filing such Tax Returns (taking into account any extensions) or as early as possible before such due date if, at the time of Closing, any such Tax Return is due in less than 30 days and shall make such revisions to such Seller Income Tax Returns as are reasonably requested by Purchaser. Seller Representative shall remit to Purchaser payment for, and shall be solely liable with respect to, any Taxes with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period shown as due on such Seller Income Tax Returns not less than five Business Days before such Taxes are due, or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, and Purchaser shall timely file or cause to be timely filed such Tax Returns and timely pay any Taxes shown to be due with such Tax Returns.

(c) Purchaser shall prepare and timely file or cause to be prepared and timely filed all non-income Tax Returns for any taxable period ending on prior to the Closing Date that are required to be filed after the Closing Date and all Tax Returns with respect to the Company for Straddle Periods. Purchaser shall deliver to Seller Representative for its review and comment a copy of any such Tax Return before the later of (i) as soon as reasonably practicable and (ii) either (a) 30 days prior to the due date of an income Tax Return (taking into account any extensions) or (b) 10 days prior to the due date thereof for all non-income Tax Returns (taking into account any extensions), accompanied by a statement calculating in reasonable detail Seller Representative’s payment obligation, if any, calculated pursuant to Section 7.5(e). If for any reason Seller Representative does not agree with Purchaser’s calculation of its indemnification obligation, Seller Representative shall notify Purchaser of its disagreement within 15 days of receiving a copy of the Tax Return and Purchaser’s calculation (or, in any event, within a reasonable period of time prior to the last date for timely filing such Tax Return). Seller Representative and Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to settle the dispute with respect to such payment obligation promptly. If Seller Representative and Purchaser are unable to resolve any dispute prior to the due date of such Tax Return (giving effect to valid extensions), Purchaser shall file the Tax Return as originally prepared (but, reflecting any items on which Seller Representative and Purchaser have agreed), and the dispute resolution provisions of Section 2.3(d) shall apply, mutatis mutandis.

(d) Purchaser and Seller Representative shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party or parties, in connection with the preparation and filing of Tax Returns and any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other party’s request) the provision of records and information reasonably relevant to any such audit, litigation, or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. Seller Representative and Purchaser agree to retain all Books and Records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Company relating to any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until expiration of the statute of limitations of the respective taxable periods, and to abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any Tax Authority.

(e) For purposes of determining the amount of any Taxes for the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be calculated as (i) in the case of any Tax based upon or related to income, receipts, expenditures, or a specific event or transaction, the amount of such Tax that would be payable if the relevant taxable period ended as of the end of the Closing Date, and (ii) in the case of any Tax not described in clause (i), the amount of such Tax for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the Straddle Period prior to and including the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire Straddle Period.

(f) For purposes of this Agreement, all items of loss or deduction for applicable income Tax purposes resulting from or attributable to the exercise or cancellation of any options, the payment of any bonuses or other compensatory payments made in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, any fees, expenses, premiums and penalties incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be allocated to the taxable period (or a portion thereof) ending on or prior to the Closing Date for the benefit of the Stockholders.

(g) Without the prior written consent of Seller Representative (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed, or conditioned), Purchaser shall not, and shall not cause or permit the Company or any of its Affiliates to, amend or refile any Tax Returns, make, change or revoke any Tax election, extend or waive the applicable statute of limitations, or file any ruling request with any Tax Authority, in each case, relating to any Tax of the Company for any Pre-Closing Tax Period or any Straddle Period.

(h) The amount or economic benefit of any refunds, credits or offsets of Taxes of the Company for any taxable period (or the portion thereof) ending on or prior to the Closing Date shall be for the account of the Stockholders. The amount or economic benefit of any refunds, credits or offsets of Taxes of the Company for any Straddle Period shall be equitably apportioned between the Stockholders and the Company in accordance with Section 7.5(e). Purchaser shall pay (or cause the Company to pay) to each such Stockholder the amount of any refund, credit or offset of Tax to which each such Stockholder is entitled pursuant to this Section 7.5(h) within ten days after such refund is received.

(i) Purchaser shall promptly notify Seller Representative in writing upon receipt by Purchaser, the Company or any of their Affiliates of notice of any claim, Action, audit, suit, proceeding, examination or investigation related to Taxes with respect to the Company (a “Tax Action”) to the extent such Tax Action relates to any Pre-Closing Tax Period, the Pre-Closing Tax Period portion of a Straddle Period or such Tax Action could give rise to Taxes for which the Stockholders may be liable; provided, however, that no failure or delay of Purchaser, the Company, or their Affiliates in the performance of the foregoing shall reduce or otherwise affect the obligations or liabilities of the Stockholders pursuant to this Agreement, except to the extent any such Stockholder is actually prejudiced by such failure or delay. Seller Representative shall have the right to control, settle or compromise any such Tax Action (other than a Tax Action in respect of a Straddle Period). If Seller Representative elects not to (or is not permitted to) control such Tax Action, Purchaser shall control such Tax Action. The party having control of any Tax Action shall keep the other party reasonably informed with respect to the status and progress of such Tax Action, and such other party shall have the right to participate in such Tax Action with its own counsel and at its own expense. Purchaser shall not settle or compromise any Tax Action governed by this Section 7.5(i) without the prior written consent of Seller Representative (not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed, and conditioned); and Seller Representative or the Stockholders shall not settle or compromise any Tax Action governed by this Section 7.5(i) that would reasonably be expected to affect the Tax liability of the Company, Purchaser, or their Affiliates for taxable periods ending after the Closing Date without Purchaser’s consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed, or conditioned). In the event this Section 7.5(i) conflicts with any of Section 9.3, Section 9.5, Section 9.6 or Section 9.7, any Tax Action shall be governed by this Section 7.5(i).

(j) Purchaser, Seller Representative and the Company shall cooperate and work in good faith to any reasonable extent in connection with dividing control of Straddle Period Tax Actions between the Pre-Closing Tax Period, which Seller Representative shall control, subject to Purchaser’s right to participate at its own expense and approval over any positions or settlements that would reasonably be expected to adversely affect the Post-Closing Tax Period, and the Post-Closing Tax Period, which Purchaser shall control. If the parties hereto are unable to do so, then Seller Representative and Purchaser shall jointly control, at each such party’s sole cost and expense, respectively, the prosecution, settlement or compromise of such actions. If there is a dispute relating to the conduct of a Tax Action with respect to the Pre-Closing Tax Period of a Straddle Period, such dispute shall be referred to the Independent Accountants for resolution in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.3(c), which shall apply mutatis mutandis.

(k) Each of Purchaser, Acquisition Subs and the Company intend that the First Merger, taken together with the Second Merger, will be treated as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code and hereby adopt this Agreement as a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.368-2(g). Each of Purchaser, Acquisition Subs and the Company agree to report the First Merger, taken together with the Second Merger, as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code and file all Tax Returns consistent with, and will not otherwise take any Tax position inconsistent with, such treatment unless otherwise required by a Governmental Body. None of Purchaser, Acquisition Subs or the Company will knowingly take any action after the Closing Date that Purchaser, Acquisition Subs or the Company know would prevent the First Merger and the Second Merger from qualifying as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code.

(l) Except as set forth in Section 6.12, Purchaser makes no representation or warranty with respect to whether the First Merger or the Second Merger shall qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code and, except to the extent caused by an action resulting in an inaccuracy in Section 6.12 or a breach of the covenant in Section 7.5(k), shall have no liability to any Person if the First Merger or the Second Merger fail to so qualify.

7.6 Non-Competition; Non-Solicitation.

(a) For a period equal to the applicable “Restricted Period” set forth for each Stockholder on Schedule 7.6(a) (the applicable period, the “Restricted Period” and such Stockholders, collectively, the “Non-Compete Stockholders”) shall not, directly or indirectly, (i) engage in or assist others in engaging in the Restricted Business in the Territory; (ii) have an interest in any Person that engages directly or indirectly in the Restricted Business in the Territory in any capacity, including as a partner, shareholder, member, employee, principal, agent, trustee or consultant; or (iii) intentionally interfere in any material respect with the business relationships (whether formed prior to or after the date of this Agreement) between the Company and customers or suppliers of the Company except in the course of his or her employment or engagement as a contractor for the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Non-Compete Stockholder may own, directly or indirectly, solely as an investment, securities of any Person traded on any national securities exchange if such Non-Compete Stockholder is not a controlling Person of, or a member of a group which controls, such Person and does not, directly or indirectly, own three percent or more of any class of securities of such Person.

(b) During the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the one year anniversary thereof (the “Non-Solicit Period”), each Non-Compete Stockholder shall not, directly or indirectly, solicit any employee of the Company or encourage any such employee to leave such employment, except pursuant to a general solicitation which is not directed specifically to any such employees; provided, that nothing in this Section 7.6 shall prevent a Non-Compete Stockholder from hiring (i) any employee whose employment has been terminated by the Company or Purchaser or (ii) after 180 days from the date of termination of employment, any employee whose employment has been terminated by the employee.

(c) During the Non-Solicit Period, each Non-Compete Stockholder shall not, directly or indirectly, solicit or entice, or attempt to solicit or entice, any clients or customers of the Company or potential clients or customers of the Company for purposes of diverting their business or services from the Company.

(d) Each Non-Compete Stockholder acknowledges that a breach or threatened breach of this Section 7.6 would give rise to irreparable harm to Purchaser, 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 such Non-Compete 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 seek 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).

(e) Each Non-Compete Stockholder acknowledges that the restrictions contained in this Section 7.6 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 transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In the event that any covenant contained in this Section 7.6 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, product or service, or other limitations permitted by applicable Law. The covenants contained in this Section 7.6 and each provision hereof are severable and distinct covenants and provisions. The invalidity or unenforceability of any such covenant or provision as written shall not invalidate or render unenforceable the remaining covenants or provisions hereof, and any such invalidity or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such covenant or provision in any other jurisdiction.

7.7 Confidentiality. From and after the Closing, each Stockholder shall hold, and shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause their Representatives to hold, in confidence any and all information, whether written or oral, concerning the Company, except to the extent that such Stockholder can show that such information (a) is generally available to and known by the public through no fault of such Stockholder, or any of its Affiliates or Representatives; or (b) is lawfully acquired by such Stockholder, or any of its Affiliates or Representatives from and after the Closing from sources which are not prohibited from disclosing such information by a legal, contractual or fiduciary obligation. If such Stockholder or any of its Affiliates or Representatives are compelled to disclose any information by judicial or administrative process or by other requirements of Law, such Stockholder shall promptly notify Purchaser in writing and shall disclose only that portion of such information which such Stockholder is advised by its counsel in writing is legally required to be disclosed, provided that such Stockholder shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain an appropriate protective order or other reasonable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such information.

7.8 Release. Effective upon the Closing, each Stockholder, on behalf of itself, and each of their respective successors and assigns (each, a “Seller Releasor”), and in their capacity as a stockholder of the Company, hereby releases, acquits and forever discharges, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, the Company and each of its current officers, directors, stockholders, partners, members, Affiliates and employees (each, a “Company Releasee”) of, from and against any and all Actions, causes of Action, claims, demands, damages, judgments, debts, dues and suits of every kind, nature and description whatsoever, which such Seller Releasor ever had, now has or may have on or by reason of any matter, cause or thing whatsoever arising prior to the Closing Date out of such Seller Releasor’s ownership of Shares and actions or inactions taken by the officers or directors of the Company; provided, however, this release does not extend to any claim (a) for accrued benefits under employee benefit plans to which any such Seller Releasor may be entitled or for any unpaid salary, expense reimbursement, vacation, or any similar employee-related benefits for the period ending on or prior to the Closing Date (other than rights with respect to Change in Control Payments contemplated to be made on or before Closing), (b) arising under or pursuant to any employment-related agreement entered into between any of the Company and such Seller Releasor, (c) to enforce such Seller Releasor’s rights under this Agreement or any ancillary agreement, including the right to receive any proceeds from the Mergers, and (d) any claims that cannot be waived as a matter of applicable Law, (e) any rights to continuing indemnification under (I) the Company’s organizational documents, (II) any indemnification to which the Seller Releasor and the Company are parties, or (III) any applicable policy of directors’ and officers’ insurance maintained by the Company. The Seller Releasors agrees not to, and agrees to cause their respective officers, directors, stockholders, partners, members, Affiliates and employees, and each of their respective successors and assigns, not to, assert any such claims against the Company Releasees.

7.9 Employees.

(a) Prior to the Closing, Purchaser shall offer to continue the employment, effective on the Closing Date, of all individuals who are employees of the Company as of immediately prior to the Closing Date (“Employees”). Effective from the Closing Date, such Employees shall receive comparable compensation and benefits to other similarly situated employees of Purchaser. Senior management of the Company, as determined by Purchaser, shall be eligible to participate in Purchaser’s annual performance bonus program and equity award grants when made to other similarly situated employees of Purchaser.

(b) Effective from and after the Closing Date, to the extent available under such Purchaser employee benefit plans without additional payment or liability by Purchaser or the Company, Employees will be given credit for eligibility and vesting (but not benefit accrual) purposes under the employee benefit plans maintained from time to time by Purchaser for such Employees’ service with the Company or its ERISA Affiliates to the same extent and for the same purposes that such service was taken into account under a corresponding Company Benefit Plan as of the Closing Date, except that no such service will be credited to the extent that it would result in a duplication of benefits.

(c) With respect to the plans providing health coverage of Purchaser or the Company, to the extent available under such Purchaser plans without additional payment or liability by Purchaser or the Company, Purchaser will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause any eligibility waiting period or other limitations or exclusions otherwise applicable under such plans to new employees not to apply to a continuing Employee or their covered dependents who were covered under a similar Company Benefit Plan on the Closing Date. In addition, if the Closing occurs during the middle of a plan year and to the extent available under such Purchaser plans without additional payment or liability by Purchaser or the Company, Purchaser will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause any such successor plan providing health coverage to give credit towards satisfaction of any annual deductible limitation and out-of-pocket maximum applied under such successor plan for any deductible, co-payment and other cost-sharing amounts previously paid by a continuing employee respecting his or her participation in the corresponding Company Benefit Plan during the plan year in which the Closing occurs.

(d) Effective from and after the Closing Date, Purchaser will be solely responsible for providing notice for any plant closing or mass layoff in accordance with the WARN Act. Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its stockholders with respect to any liability under the WARN Act (and any comparable Law requiring notice to employees) arising or resulting, in whole or in part, from any actions taken by Purchaser on or after the Closing.

(e) All provisions contained in this Agreement with respect to employee benefit plans, employee compensation, and other terms and conditions of employment are included for the sole benefit of the parties hereto and do not create any right in any other Person, including any current or former employee or any participant or beneficiary in any Company Benefit Plan.

7.10 Consideration Spreadsheet.

(a) The Company shall prepare and deliver to Purchaser in accordance with this Section 7.10, a spreadsheet (the “Consideration Spreadsheet”) which shall set forth for each Stockholder: (A) the name of such Stockholder, (B) the number of Shares held by such Stockholder, (C) the portion of the Estimated Purchase Price payable to such Stockholder in cash, (D) the account for such Stockholder to which such cash portion of the Estimated Purchase Price is to be delivered, and (E) the portion of the Estimated Purchase Price payable to such Stockholder in Purchaser Stock.

(b) The Company shall prepare and deliver to Purchaser a Consideration Spreadsheet not later than two Business Days prior to the Closing Date, certified by an officer of the Company on behalf of the Company, setting forth the required information as of the Closing. The Consideration Spreadsheet shall be prepared in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Governing Documents, the Company’s equity compensation plans, and this Agreement. The Company shall also provide to Purchaser, together with the Consideration Spreadsheet, such supporting documentation, information and calculations as are reasonably requested by Purchaser for it to verify and determine the calculations, amounts and other matters set forth in the Consideration Spreadsheet.

(c) The parties agree that Purchaser shall be entitled to rely on the Consideration Spreadsheet in making payments under this Agreement and Purchaser shall not be responsible for the calculations or the determinations regarding such calculations in such Consideration Spreadsheet or any other information set forth on the Consideration Spreadsheet.

ARTICLE 9
SURVIVAL; INDEMNIFICATION

9.1 Survival.

Subject to the terms of this ARTICLE 9, from and after the Closing, the Stockholders shall severally but not jointly and in accordance with their pro rata share of the Purchase Price (except for payments made pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, which shall be joint and several) indemnify Purchaser and its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, shareholders, members, employees, successors and permitted assigns (collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnified Parties”) and hold each of them harmless from and against any and all Losses incurred or suffered by a Purchaser Indemnified Party resulting from, arising out of or related to (a) any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made by the Company in this Agreement, and (b) any breach of any covenant or agreement of the Company contained in this Agreement or any ancillary agreement to which the Company is a party and (c) the matter described on Schedule 4.17.

9.4 Limitations on Indemnification. The indemnification provided for in Section 9.2 and Section 9.3 is subject to the following limitations:

(a) The Stockholders shall not be liable to the Purchaser Indemnified Parties for any Losses with respect to the matters described in Section 9.2 (i), unless such Losses exceed an aggregate amount equal to $240,000 (the “Threshold Amount”), in which case once the Threshold Amount is met, the Stockholders shall then be liable to the Purchaser Indemnified Parties for all Losses including the Threshold Amount, and (ii) in excess of $2,400,000 (the “Cap”); provided, however, that the Threshold Amount shall not apply to Losses resulting from, arising out of or related to any breach or inaccuracy of any of the Seller Fundamental Representations or any claims for Fraud, and the Cap shall not apply to Losses resulting from, arising out of or related to any claims for Fraud.

(b) Purchaser shall not be liable to the Stockholders for any Losses with respect to the matters described in Section 9.3(a), (i) unless such Losses exceed an aggregate amount equal to the Threshold Amount, in which case once the Threshold Amount is met, Purchaser shall then be liable to the Stockholders for all Losses including the Threshold Amount, and (ii) for any amount in excess of the Cap; provided, however, that the Threshold Amount shall not apply to Losses resulting from, arising out of or related to any breach or inaccuracy of any Purchaser Fundamental Representations or any claims for Fraud, and the Cap shall not apply to Losses resulting from, arising out of or related to any claims for Fraud.

(c) Neither Seller Representative nor Purchaser shall have any obligations under, or liabilities in respect of, Section 9.2 or Section 9.3 following the expiration of the applicable survival period set forth in Section 9.1; provided that any claim for indemnity made by a Purchaser Indemnified Party or Stockholder, as the case may be, under Section 9.2 or Section 9.3 in accordance with the terms of this ARTICLE 9 prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period will survive beyond the date of such expiration until such claim is finally and conclusively resolved.

(d) The terms “Material Adverse Effect,” “materiality,” and other similar qualifiers contained in any representations or warranties or in any defined term used herein shall be disregarded solely for calculating the amount of Losses resulting therefrom in connection with any claim for indemnification pursuant to Sections 9.2 and 9.3 but not for purposes of determining whether there has been a breach.

(e) Subject to Section 2.3, Section 7.6 and Section 10.3, this ARTICLE 9 shall constitute the exclusive remedy after the Closing for recovery of Losses by any Indemnified Party pursuant to and in connection with this Agreement and, prior to release of the Escrow Amount pursuant to Section 9.10, recovery from the Escrow Amount shall be the sole recourse of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties for any indemnification claims made under this ARTICLE 9; provided, that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement shall limit the right of any Purchaser Indemnified Party to obtain any equitable relief or to seek remedy on account of any party’s Fraud.

Thereafter, the Indemnified Party shall deliver to the Indemnifying Party, promptly following the Indemnified Party’s receipt thereof, copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnified Party relating to the Third-Party Claim.

(b) In connection with any claim which may give rise to indemnity hereunder resulting from or arising out of a Third-Party Claim solely for money damages, the Indemnifying Party, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, may, upon written notice given to the Indemnified Party, and subject to any rights of the issuer of Purchaser’s Insurance Policy, assume the defense of any such claim or Action; provided that prior to assuming control of such defense, the Indemnifying Party must (i) acknowledge that it would have an indemnity obligation for the Losses resulting from such Third-Party Claim as provided under this ARTICLE 9 and (ii) furnish the Indemnified Party with a written statement that Seller Representative does not reasonably believe that the Losses resulting from such Third-Party Claim would exceed the remaining portion of any Escrow Amount. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any such claim or Action, the Indemnifying Party shall select counsel to conduct the defense of such claims or legal proceedings and, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, shall take all necessary and appropriate steps in the defense or settlement thereof. The Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in (but not control) the defense of any such Action, with its own counsel and at its own expense. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of any such claim or litigation resulting therefrom within 30 days after the date it receives written notice of such claim from the Indemnified Party: (i) the Indemnified Party may defend against such claim or litigation at the Indemnifying Party’s expense in such manner as the Indemnified Party may deem necessary or appropriate, including, but not limited to, settling such claim or litigation on such terms as the Indemnified Party may deem appropriate, and (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in (but not control) the defense of such Action, with its counsel and at its own expense; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party shall not settle or compromise any Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), unless such settlement includes a full release of the Indemnifying Party from such Third-Party Claim.

(c) The Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, settle, compromise or offer to settle or compromise any Third-Party Claim if the terms of such settlement would result in (i) the imposition of a consent order, injunction or decree that would apply to the Indemnified Party, or (ii) a finding or admission of a violation of Law by the Indemnified Party. Whether or not the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall not admit any liability with respect to, settle, compromise or discharge, such Third-Party Claim without the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Third-Party Claim and is in good faith contesting such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to any settlement, compromise or discharge of a Third-Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party may reasonably recommend and that by its terms (i) obligates the Indemnifying Party to pay the full amount of Losses in connection with such Third-Party Claim, other than with respect to any Losses (or portion thereof) that are not required to be paid as a result of the limitations set forth in Section 9.4 and (ii) releases the Indemnified Party in connection with such Third-Party Claim.

(d) The Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall cooperate in order to ensure the proper and adequate defense of a Third-Party Claim, including by providing reasonable access to each other’s relevant Books and Records, and employees. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the Indemnifying Party’s request) the provision to the Indemnifying Party of Books and Records and information that are reasonably relevant to such Third-Party Claim, and making employees and Representatives available on a mutually convenient basis during normal business hours to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. The Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall use reasonable commercial efforts to avoid production of confidential and attorney-client privileged information (consistent with applicable Law), and to cause all communications among employees, counsel and others representing any party to a Third-Party Claim to be made so as to preserve any applicable attorney-client or work-product privileges.

9.6 Direct Claim Indemnification Procedures. Each Purchaser Indemnified Party or Stockholder shall assert any claim on account of any Losses which do not result from a Third-Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”) by giving the Indemnifying Party written notice thereof reasonably promptly (and, in any event, no later than 30 days following the Indemnified Party’s discovery of the applicable Losses reasonably likely to give rise to a claim under this ARTICLE 9). Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Direct Claim in reasonable detail and indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of Losses that have been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party; provided that the failure to timely give such notice shall not affect the rights of a Purchaser Indemnified Party or Stockholders, as the case may be, hereunder unless such failure has a prejudicial effect on the defenses or other rights available to the Indemnifying Party with respect to such Direct Claim.

9.7 Investigation by Indemnifying Parties. In connection with any claim pursuant to this ARTICLE 9, (a) the Purchaser Indemnified Parties or Stockholders, as the case may be, shall allow, and shall cause their Affiliates to allow, the Indemnifying Party and its financial, accounting or legal advisers to investigate the fact, matter or circumstance alleged to (or which may) give rise to such claim and whether and to what extent any amount is or may be payable in respect of such claim, and (b) the Purchaser Indemnified Parties or Stockholders, as the case may be, shall disclose to the Indemnifying Party all material of which they are aware which relates to the claim and shall, and shall cause their Affiliates and all of their respective employees and financial, accounting and legal advisors to, provide such information and assistance as the Indemnifying Party or its financial, accounting or legal advisers shall reasonably request, including (i) access to premises and personnel (including any employee with knowledge relating to the relevant facts, matters or circumstances or who can otherwise reasonably assist the Indemnifying Party); and (ii) the right to examine and copy or photograph any relevant assets, accounts, correspondence, documents and records.

9.8 Payment of Indemnification Obligation. Upon a final determination of an indemnification claim made by the Purchaser Indemnified Parties or Stockholders, as the case may be, whether such final determination is by reason of (a) a failure of the Indemnifying Party to timely object to an Claim Notice or Direct Claim, (b) the mutual agreement of the Indemnifying Party and the Purchaser Indemnified Parties or Seller Representative, as the case may be, or (c) a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction which is either not subject to any further appeals or the time for giving notice to take such appeals has lapsed and no such notice was filed (each a “Final Determination”), then the amount of the Losses stated in such Final Determination shall be due and payable by the Indemnifying Party. The Purchaser Indemnified Parties may seek recovery of such amount from the Escrow Amount, which shall be their sole source of recovery for all Losses prior to release of the Escrow Amount pursuant to Section 9.10, other than on account of any party’s Fraud, and from the Stockholders, on a several basis in accordance with their pro rata share of the Purchase Price, from an after such date, subject to the provisions of Section 9.4. Seller Representative may seek recovery of such amount directly from Purchaser on behalf of the Stockholders. Any payment due directly shall be paid within 5 Business Days after the date of such Final Determination by wire transfer of immediately available funds.

9.9 Characterization of Indemnification Payments. All payments made (or deemed to be made, in accordance with this Agreement) to an Indemnified Party with respect to any claim pursuant to Section 9.2 or Section 9.3 shall be treated, to the fullest extent possible under applicable Law, as adjustments to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes.

9.10 Release of Remaining Escrow Amount. As soon as reasonably practicable following the date that falls on the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the Closing Date, Purchaser and Seller Representative shall jointly instruct the Escrow Agent to deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Payment Agent for further distribution to the Stockholders, the Escrow Amount (if any) minus any amount of the Escrow Amount that has been paid to satisfy claims for Losses specified in any notice of claim (Third-Party Claims or Direct Claims) or that is necessary to satisfy unresolved, unsatisfied or disputed claims for Losses specified in any notice of claim (Third-Party Claims or Direct Claims) delivered to the Seller Representative before such anniversary (based on the total maximum amount of Losses then being claimed by Purchaser Indemnified Parties in good faith in such unresolved, unsatisfied or disputed claims (Third-Party Claims or Direct Claims)). If any claims are unresolved, unsatisfied or disputed as of such anniversary, then Purchaser and Seller Representative shall instruct Escrow Agent to retain possession and custody of that portion of the remaining Escrow Amount that equals the total maximum amount of Losses then being claimed by Purchaser Indemnified Parties in such unresolved, unsatisfied or disputed Third-Party Claims or Direct Claims, and promptly following resolution of all such claims, Purchaser and Seller Representative shall jointly instruct the Escrow Agent to deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Payment Agent for further distribution to the Stockholders, all remaining Escrow Amount (if any) not required to satisfy such claims.

(a) By entering into this Agreement and receiving the benefits hereof, each Stockholder hereby designates the Seller Representative as the representative of the Stockholders and as the attorney-in-fact and agent for and on behalf of each Stockholder with respect to claims for indemnification under Article 9 and the taking by the Seller Representative of any and all actions and the making of any decisions required or permitted to be taken by the Seller Representative under this Agreement or any ancillary agreement to which such Stockholder is a party, including the exercise of the power to: (i) give and receive notices and communications to or from Purchaser (on behalf of itself of any other Purchaser Indemnified Party) relating to this Agreement or any ancillary agreement to which such Stockholder is a party or any of the transactions and other matters contemplated hereby or thereby (except to the extent that this Agreement or such ancillary agreement expressly contemplates that any such notice or communication shall be given or received by such Stockholder individually); (ii) authorize the release or delivery to Purchaser of all or a portion of the Escrow Amount in satisfaction of claims by Purchaser or any other Purchaser Indemnified Party pursuant to Articles 2 and 9 (including by not objecting to such claims); (iii) agree to, object to, negotiate, resolve, enter into settlements and compromises of, demand litigation of, and comply with orders of courts with respect to, (A) claims by Purchaser or any other Purchaser Indemnified Party pursuant to Article 9 or (B) any dispute between any Purchaser Indemnified Party and any such Stockholder, in each case, relating to this Agreement or any ancillary agreement to which such Stockholder is a party; and (iv) take all actions necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Seller Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing. The Seller Representative shall have authority and power to act on behalf of each Stockholder with respect to the disposition, settlement or other handling of all claims under this Article 9 and all rights or obligations arising under Article 9. The Stockholders shall be bound by all actions taken and documents executed by the Seller Representative in connection with this Section 10.16, and Purchaser and other Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to rely on any action or decision of the Seller Representative. The Seller Representative shall only have the duties expressly stated in this Agreement and shall have no other duty, express or implied. The Seller Representative may engage attorneys, accountants and other professionals and experts. The Seller Representative may in good faith rely conclusively upon information, reports, statements and opinions prepared or presented by such professionals, and any action taken by the Seller Representative based on such reliance shall be deemed conclusively to have been taken in good faith. The individual serving as the Seller Representative may be replaced from time to time by the holders of a majority in interest of the Escrow Amount then on deposit with the Escrow Agent upon not less than ten Business Days’ prior written notice to Purchaser. No bond shall be required of the Seller Representative, and the Seller Representative shall receive no compensation for his services. Notices or communications to or from the Seller Representative shall constitute notice to or from each of the Stockholders.

(b) In performing the functions specified in this Agreement, the Seller Representative shall not incur liability of any kind to the Stockholders with respect to any action or omission by the Seller Representative, except to the extent resulting from gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Seller Representative. Each Stockholder shall severally (based on such Stockholder’s pro rata share of the Purchase Price), and not jointly, indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Seller Representative from and against any loss, liability or expense incurred without gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Seller Representative and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of his duties hereunder, including any out-of-pocket costs and expenses and legal fees and other legal costs reasonably incurred by the Seller Representative (together, the “Representative Expenses”). If the Representative Expenses are not paid directly to the Seller Representative by the Stockholders, such Representative Expenses may be recovered by the Representative from (i) the funds in the Expense Fund and (ii) the Escrow Amount otherwise distributable to the Stockholders (and not distributed or distributable to any Purchaser Indemnified Party or subject to a pending indemnification Third-Party Claims or Direct Claims of any Purchaser Indemnified Party) following release of the Escrow Amount, at the time of distribution, so long as the Seller Representative has delivered to Purchaser prior to such time a certificate setting forth such Representative Expenses actually incurred, and such recovery will be made from the Stockholders according to their respective pro rata shares of the Purchase Price; provided, that while this section allows the Seller Representative to be paid from the Expense Fund and the Escrow Amount, this does not relieve the Stockholders from their obligation to promptly pay such Losses as they are suffered or incurred, nor does it prevent the Seller Representative from seeking any remedies available to it at law or otherwise. In no event will the Seller Representative be required to advance its own funds on behalf of the Stockholders or otherwise. The Stockholders acknowledge and agree that the foregoing indemnities will survive the resignation or removal of the Seller Representative or the termination of this Agreement.

(c) Upon the Closing, the Company will wire to the Seller Representative an amount of $150,000.00 in cash (the “Expense Fund”), which will be used for the purposes of paying directly, or reimbursing the Seller Representative for, any third party expenses pursuant to this Agreement and the agreements ancillary hereto. The Stockholders will not receive any interest or earnings on the Expense Fund and irrevocably transfer and assign to the Seller Representative any ownership right that they may otherwise have had in any such interest or earnings. The Seller Representative will not be liable for any loss of principal of the Expense Fund other than as a result of its gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Seller Representative will hold these funds separate from its own funds, will not use these funds for its operating expenses or any other personal purposes and will not voluntarily make these funds available to its creditors in the event of bankruptcy. As soon as practicable after the completion of the Seller Representative’s responsibilities, the Seller Representative will distribute such amount to the Stockholders, based on each Stockholder’s Pro Rata Portion. For tax purposes, the Expense Fund will be treated as having been received and voluntarily set aside by the Stockholders at the time of Closing.
