STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT

THIS STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of July 31, 2016, is by and among IZEA, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Buyer”), ZenContent, Inc. (formerly Triple Curve, Inc.), a California corporation (the “Company”), and the stockholders of the Company listed on the signature pages hereto (each, a “Stockholder” and, collectively, the “Stockholders”). Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in Section 8.11.

RECITALS

WHEREAS, the Company is engaged in the business of creating turn-key original content for businesses;

WHEREAS, as of the date of this Agreement, the issued and outstanding shares of the capital stock of the Company consist of 8,975,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Shares”);

WHEREAS, as of the date hereof, the Stockholders own all of the Shares; and

WHEREAS, the parties desire to enter into this Agreement to provide for the acquisition by the Buyer of the Company through the purchase by the Buyer from the Stockholders of all of the Shares.

AGREEMENT

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements herein contained, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE IPURCHASE AND SALE

Section 1Purchase and Sale of the Shares. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, the Stockholders agree to sell to the Buyer, and the Buyer agrees to purchase from the Stockholders, all of the Shares at the Closing (the “Stock Purchase”). The purchase price (the “Purchase Price”) for the Shares is up to $4,500,000, payable, and subject to adjustment as set forth in this Section 1.1 and Section 1.3 below and offset as provided in Section 6.2(a), as follows:

(a)The Buyer shall deliver to the Stockholders at Closing (in accordance with the allocation set forth in Section 1.2(b) of the Company Disclosure Schedule) a cash payment in the amount of $400,000 (the “Closing Cash Payment”).

(b)The Buyer shall deliver to the Stockholders at Closing (in accordance with the allocation set forth in Section 1.2(b) of the Company Disclosure Schedule) such number of shares of common stock of the Buyer (the “Buyer Common Stock”), valued at $600,000 and in accordance with Section 1.1(h) below (the “Closing Stock Issuance”).

(c)The Buyer shall deliver to the Stockholders (in accordance with the allocation set forth in Section 1.2(b) of the Company Disclosure Schedule), an additional $1,000,000 in consideration in three installments of $333,333, $333,333 and $333,334 on the first, second and third anniversaries of the Closing Date, respectively (subject to possible reduction in such payments as described in Section 1.1(e) below). Of this additional consideration, 33% of each installment shall be paid by the Buyer in the form of cash. The remainder of such additional consideration shall be paid by the Buyer in the form of cash and/or shares of Buyer Common Stock, as determined by the Buyer in its sole discretion (the “36-Month Cash/Stock Payments”) and in accordance with Section 1.1(h) below.

(d)The Buyer shall deliver to the Stockholders additional performance payments up to an aggregate of $2,500,000 (in accordance with the allocation set forth in Section 1.2(b) of the Company Disclosure Schedule) based upon the Company (on a stand-alone basis) meeting the revenue thresholds below for each of the three years ending on the first, second and third anniversaries of the Closing Date (each, a “Measuring Period” and,

collectively, the “Measuring Periods”), subject to reduction in such payments as described in Section 1.1(e) below (the “Performance Payments”) and in accordance with Section 1.1(h) below. For the purposes of this Section 1.1(d), revenue will include all content managed through the Company’s workflow (or, when integrated into Buyer’s IZEAx Enterprise, as a managed high-volume service). The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to achieve such revenue thresholds.

(i)Performance Payments. For each Measuring Period, the Buyer will deliver to the Stockholders Performance Payments on total Revenue multiplied by the rates indicated for Revenue which meets or exceeds the stated Revenue Thresholds indicated below:

Measuring Periods		Revenue Thresholds		Performance Rate
				(% of Total Revenue Due)
12 Months		$2.5 million		8.6%
After Closing Date		$3.5 million		12.7%
		$4.5 million		16.7%
24 Months		$3.5 million		6.3%
After Closing Date		$4.5 million		10.1%
		$5.5 million		13.6%
36 Months		$4.5 million		5.1%
After Closing Date		$5.5 million		8.4%
		$6.5 million		11.5%

If total revenue does not meet the 1^st Revenue Threshold in the applicable Measuring Period, no Performance Payment is owed. By way of example, if total revenue for the first 12 months is $2.0 million, then the Performance Payment will be $0. If total revenue for the first 12 months is $3.0 million, then the Performance Payment will be $258,000 ($3.0 million x 8.6%). If total revenue for the first 12 months is $4.0 million, then the Performance Payment will be $508,000 ($4.0 million x 12.7%).

(ii)Of the Performance Payments, 33% of each payment shall be paid by the Buyer in the form of cash. The remaining portion of such payment shall be paid by the Buyer in the form of cash and/or shares of Buyer Common Stock, as determined by the Buyer in its sole discretion and in accordance with Section 1.1(h). Each Performance Payment shall be made to the Stockholders following the end of each of Buyer’s SEC reporting fiscal quarters as to which the Buyer files its Form 10-Q or Form 10-K with the SEC (commencing with the quarter ending September 30, 2016 and including the following fiscal quarters ending December 31, March 30 and June 30) during the Measuring Periods, with the Stockholders receiving the Performance Payment for a Measuring Period quarter no later than 15 days after the Buyer has publicly released its financial results for such fiscal quarter corresponding to such Measuring Period quarter. Each Performance Payment shall be accompanied by a written calculation, from or certified by the Buyer’s Chief Financial Officer, setting forth in reasonable detail (i) the calculation of the Company’s revenue for the applicable Measuring Period quarter then ended, (ii) the total Performance Payments payable hereunder in respect of such revenue, and (iii) the allocation of such total Performance Payments as between a payment in cash and shares of Buyer Common Stock; and, to the extent that such calculation shall indicate that any Performance Payments are due to the Stockholders, such calculation shall be accompanied by a wire transfer of immediately available funds or by certified or official bank check in the amount of the applicable cash payment and stock certificates representing the applicable Buyer Common Stock payment. The Stockholders’ Agent and its Representatives shall, at all times during normal business hours, have the right (notwithstanding receipt and acceptance of any Performance Payments) to inspect the Buyer’s and/or the Company’s books and records to verify the Company’s revenue. To the extent that any calculation of Company revenue or Performance Payments due for any of the Measuring Period as calculated by the Stockholders’ Agent shall differ from the calculation thereof made by the Buyer, and the

parties are unable to resolve such discrepancy within thirty (30) days following the Stockholders’ Agent’s delivery of its calculation to the Buyer, then such dispute shall be submitted to final and binding arbitration in accordance with Section 1.1(d)(vi) below, with any additional Performance Payments to be made within thirty (30) days following the rendering of the arbitration decision; provided, however, that any claim hereunder must be brought, if at all, within forty-five (45) days after receipt of the Buyer’s calculations of the Company’s revenue and Performance Payments due for the applicable Measuring Period or fiscal quarter thereof. In no event shall the Performance Payments exceed $2,500,000 over the Measuring Periods.

(iii)For purposes of this Section 1.1(d), the Company’s revenue shall be calculated separately for each Measuring Period, and there shall be no carry-forward or carry-back from any Measuring Period to any other Measuring Period of any excess or shortfall of Company revenue. Any portion of any Performance Payment for any Measuring Period which is not earned in such Measuring Period in accordance herewith shall not be reallocated to any other Measuring Period.

(iv)In the event that, at any time during which the Stockholders shall remain eligible to receive any Performance Payments pursuant to this Section 1.1(d), the employment of Xxxxxxx XxXxxx is terminated by the Buyer, during any Measuring Period, Without Cause (as such term is defined in the Employment Agreement), then, the Stockholders shall be entitled to receive, as and when same would otherwise first become payable hereunder, the full Performance Payment calculated for such Measuring Period and all subsequent Measuring Periods.

(v)The Buyer hereby agrees to put in place, as it deems appropriate, accounting procedures such that the Company’s revenue can be measured separately from the other operations of the Buyer on a going-forward basis.

(vi)In the event there is any dispute between the Buyer and the Stockholders with respect to the calculation of the Performance Payments, all such disputes shall first be submitted to Buyer’s independent accountants to be reviewed, and, if the dispute is still not resolved, submitted to binding arbitration conducted by the American Arbitration Association under its rules, regulations and procedures, the cost of which shall be borne by the non-prevailing party. Any arbitration hearing shall be held in Orlando, Florida. Judgment under the award entered by the arbitrator or arbitrators may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof in accordance with the terms of Section 8.3 hereof.

(e)In acknowledgment of Xxxxxxx XxXxxx’x critical role in the operations and growth of the Company (for whom finding a replacement would be extremely difficult) and the Buyer’s decision to enter into Contemplated Transactions based on her commitment to continue with the Company (as a subsidiary of the Buyer), if Xx. XxXxxx’x employment is terminated by the Buyer for Cause, or Xx. XxXxxx’x employment is terminated by her without Good Reason (as such terms are defined in the Employment Agreement), each of the remaining 36-Month Cash/Stock Payments and the Performance Payments shall be reduced by 30% with respect to the first installment and Measuring Period, 15% with respect to the second installment and Measuring Period and 7.5% with respect to the third installment and Measuring Period.

(f)In the event that, at any time during which the Stockholders shall remain eligible to receive any shares of Buyer Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement, there shall occur any merger, consolidation, reorganization or other business combination with any Person that results in a Change of Control (as such term is defined in Section 8.11) of the Buyer or the sale, conveyance, disposition of or transfer to any Person of any asset or other property that is material to the business of the Company as of the date of closing any such transaction (including, without limitation, as part of a sale of all or substantially all the assets of the Buyer or a going private transaction), then (a) if the Buyer is not the surviving corporation, in lieu of the shares of Buyer Common Stock otherwise issuable hereunder, the Buyer shall transfer or cause to be issued to the Stockholders the fair equivalent securities of the surviving corporation (provided, however, if the securities of the surviving corporation are either (1) not listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market or any national securities exchange or (2) not otherwise of a reporting company that is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, then the surviving corporation shall pay any such amounts due pursuant to this Article I in the form of cash), and (b) the Buyer shall, as part of the terms and conditions of any such merger, consolidation, reorganization or other business combination with any Person that results in a Change of Control of the Buyer or sale, conveyance, disposition of or transfer to any Person of any asset or other property that is material to the business of the Company as of the date of closing any such transaction (including, without limitation, as part of a sale of all or substantially all the assets of the Buyer), cause the surviving corporation to acknowledge the terms and conditions of, and assume all of the Buyer’s obligations pursuant to, this Agreement (including, but not limited to, as

applicable, payment of the 36-Month Cash/Stock Payments and the Performance Payments) and reserve and make available the substitute consideration contemplated by this Section 1.1(f).

(g)In order to comply with NASDAQ Market Rules, in no event shall the Buyer be obligated to issue such number of shares of Buyer Common Stock equal to or more than 19.9% of its outstanding shares of common stock, as determined before the Closing.

(h)Payment in the form of shares of Buyer Common Stock required under this Section 1.1 shall be based on the thirty (30) trading day volume-weighted average closing price of the Buyer Common Stock prior to the payment date, as reported by the NASDAQ Capital Market or the primary stock market on which the Buyer Common Stock is then traded. Payment of any cash amounts required under this Section 1.1 shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by each of the Stockholders at least two Business Days prior to the applicable payment date. If the Stockholders do not deliver any such notice, then the Buyer may make any cash payments required under this Section 1.1 either (i) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account, if any, designated in writing by each of the Stockholders prior to the Closing Date or (ii) by certified or official bank check.

Section 2Closing.

(a)The closing of the Contemplated Transactions (the “Closing”) shall occur as of July 31, 2016 (the “Closing Date”), after satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article VII (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the fulfillment or waiver of those conditions), at the offices of Xxxxxx Frome Xxxxxxx LLP, 1325 Avenue of the Xxxxxxxx, 00^xx Xxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000, or at such other time, date or place as agreed to in writing by the parties hereto. At the Closing, the Stockholders will deliver to the Buyer good and valid title to the Shares, free and clear of all Encumbrances, together with a certificate(s) for the Shares duly endorsed or accompanied by a stock power(s) duly endorsed in blank, with any required transfer stamps affixed thereto, or a lost stock affidavit executed by such Stockholder in a form reasonably acceptable to the Buyer, against payment of the Closing Payment and the Closing Stock Issuance. At the Closing, all such actions will be deemed to be taken simultaneously.

(b)Section 1.2(b) of the Company Disclosure Schedule sets forth to whom and in what denominations the Purchase Price is to be allocated among the Stockholders.

(c)Notwithstanding the foregoing, no fractional shares of Buyer Common Stock shall be issued as part of the Closing Stock Issuance, 36-Month Cash/Stock Payments and Performance Payments. Fractional shares to be issued hereunder shall be rounded up to the next whole number.

(d)All stock options, warrants and rights to purchase common stock of the Company (or any other capital stock of the Company) will be exercised or terminated prior to or effective upon the Closing Date, and the Buyer shall not assume or have any obligation with respect to such stock options, warrants or rights.

Section 3Working Capital Adjustment. 

(a)Within forty-five (45) days after the Closing, the Buyer shall prepare and deliver to the Stockholders’ Agent a statement (the “Closing Date Working Capital Statement”) setting forth the actual Company Working Capital as of the close of business on the day prior to the Closing Date (the “Closing Date Working Capital”).

(b)The Stockholders’ Agent shall have a period of thirty (30) days after the date on which the Closing Date Working Capital Statement is delivered to him (the “Review Period”) to review the Closing Date Working Capital Statement. If the Stockholders’ Agent objects to the calculation of the Closing Date Working Capital as set forth on such Closing Date Working Capital Statement, the Stockholders’ Agent shall so inform the Buyer in writing (the “Objection”) on or before the last day of the Review Period, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis of the Objection and the adjustments to the Closing Date Working Capital Statement which the Stockholders’ Agent believes should be made. In the event that an Objection is not delivered to the Buyer on or before the last day of the Review Period, the Stockholders’ Agent shall be deemed to have agreed to the Closing Date Working Capital Statement.  In the event that an Objection is delivered to the Buyer on or before the last day of the Review Period, the Stockholders’ Agent and the Buyer shall attempt in good faith to reach an agreement with respect to any matters in dispute. If the Stockholders’ Agent and the Buyer are unable to resolve all of their differences within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Objection to the Buyer, they shall refer their remaining differences to an independent accounting firm as to which the Stockholders’ Agent and the Buyer shall mutually agree (the “WC Arbiter”). The WC Arbiter shall, based on those items as to which the Stockholders’ Agent and the Buyer have agreed and the WC Arbiter’s determination regarding those items in dispute, finally determine the Closing Date Working Capital; provided, however, that the Closing Date Working Capital as finally determined by the WC Arbiter shall not be less than the amount proposed by

the Stockholders’ Agent or greater than the amount proposed by the Buyer. The WC Arbiter’s determination shall be set forth in writing and shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto and may be entered as a final judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. The non-prevailing party shall pay the fees of the WC Arbiter (unless the WC Arbiter otherwise determines), and each of the Stockholders and the Buyer shall pay the fees and expenses of their own legal counsel, accountants and other Representatives. Each of the parties hereto shall make available to the WC Arbiter and each other party hereto all relevant books and records and any work papers (including those, if any, of the accountants of the Company) in its possession or readily obtainable by it relating to the Closing Date Working Capital, and all other items reasonably requested by the WC Arbiter and each other party hereto.

(c)The “Final Working Capital Amount” shall be (i) if no Objection is sent to the Buyer prior to the end of the Review Period, the amount of Closing Date Working Capital set forth on the Closing Date Working Capital Statement delivered by the Buyer, (ii) if an Objection is made but finally determined between the Buyer and the Stockholders’ Agent prior to referring any such dispute to a WC Arbiter, the amount of Closing Date Working Capital so finally determined among such Persons, and (iii) if an Objection is sent to the WC Arbiter, the amount of Closing Date Working Capital finally determined by such WC Arbiter.

(d)If the Final Working Capital Amount is a negative number, then the Buyer shall reduce the first installment of the 36-Month Cash/Stock Payments due under Section 1.1(c) by the negative Final Working Capital Amount, and distribute the revised first installment of the 36-Month Cash/Stock Payment on a pro rata basis among the Stockholders determined in accordance with the allocation of the 36-Month Cash/Stock Payments set forth in Section 1.2(b) of the Company Disclosure Schedule. The Buyer shall additionally reduce the second and then the third installments of the 36-Month Cash/Stock Payments if and as required to recoup such negative amount. If such Final Working Capital Amount deficiency exceeds the amounts to be due for the 36-Month Cash/Stock Payments, then any such excess shall be the joint and several obligations of the Stockholders and shall be paid to the Buyer within thirty (30) days of the determination of the Final Working Capital Amount.

Section 6Investment Representations.

(a)Offering Exemption. Such Stockholder understands that the shares of Buyer Common Stock to be acquired by such Stockholder pursuant to the Share Purchase have not been registered under the Securities Act, nor qualified under any state securities Laws, and that such shares of Buyer Common Stock are being offered and sold pursuant to an exemption from such registration and qualification based in part upon the representations contained herein. Such Stockholder is (i) an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act or (ii) a “sophisticated investor” as that term is construed in Rule 506(b)(2)(ii) under the Securities Act.

(b)Knowledge and Experience; Ability to Bear Economic Risks. Such Stockholder has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that such Stockholder is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment contemplated by this Agreement; and such Stockholder is able to bear the economic risk of this investment in the shares of Buyer Common Stock (including a complete loss of such Stockholder’s investment).

(c)Limitations on Disposition.

(i)Such Stockholder understands that the Stockholder must bear the economic risk of such Stockholder’s investment in the shares of Buyer Common Stock indefinitely unless the shares of Buyer Common Stock are registered pursuant to the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available, and unless the disposition of such shares of Buyer Common Stock is qualified under applicable state securities Laws or an exemption from such qualification is available. Such Stockholder further understands that there is no assurance that any exemption from the Securities Act will be available or, if available, that such exemption will allow such Stockholder to Transfer any or all of such Stockholder’s interest in the shares of Buyer Common Stock in the amounts or at the times such Stockholder might propose.

(ii)Such Stockholder acknowledges that he, she or it is aware of Rule 144 under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”) which permits limited public resales of “restricted securities” subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. Such Stockholder understands that under Rule 144, except as otherwise provided in paragraph (d) of that Rule, the conditions include, among other things: the availability of certain current public information about the issuer, certain holding periods and limitations on the amount of securities to be sold and the manner of sale. Stockholder acknowledges that in the event all of the requirements of Rule 144 are not met, registration under the Securities Act, or an exemption from registration will be required for any disposition of the Buyer Common Stock. Such Stockholder understands, that although Rule 144 is not exclusive, the SEC has expressed its opinion that persons proposing to sell restricted securities received other than in a registered offering or pursuant to Rule 144 will have a substantial burden of proof in establishing that an exemption from registration is available for such offers or sales and that such persons and the brokers who participate in the transactions do so at their own risk.

(d)Advisors. Such Stockholder has consulted his, her or its own legal and tax advisors regarding the consequences of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement and acknowledges that he, she or it is not relying upon, nor has he, she or it received, any legal or tax advice from the Company, the Buyer or their respective legal counsel or accountants.

(e)Investment Purpose. Such Stockholder is acquiring such Stockholder’s interest in the shares of Buyer Common Stock solely for such Stockholder’s own account for investment and not with a view toward the resale, Transfer or distribution thereof, nor with any present intention of Transferring or distributing such Stockholder’s interest in the shares of Buyer Common Stock.

(f)Restrictive Legend. Such Stockholder understands and acknowledges that the shares of Buyer Common Stock are characterized as “restricted securities” under U.S. securities Laws and agrees to the imprinting, so long as required by Law, of the following legend on certificates representing such Stockholder’s shares of Buyer Common Stock:

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER SUCH ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR PURSUANT TO AN APPLICABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF SUCH ACT AND SUCH LAWS.

Section 2Indemnification.

(a)Indemnification by the Stockholders. Subject to the other terms of this Section 6.2, the Stockholders will, severally but not jointly, defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Buyer and its Representatives (collectively, the “Buyer Indemnified Parties”), from and against and in respect of any and all losses, liabilities, obligations, claims, actions, damages, judgments, penalties, fines, settlements and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees (collectively, “Losses”), incurred by any of the Buyer Indemnified Parties arising out of, based upon or related to (i) any inaccuracy or breach of any of the representations or warranties made by any of the Company or the Stockholders in this Agreement, (ii) any breach of or failure to comply with any covenant or agreement made by any of the Company or the Stockholders in this Agreement, (iii) any Company Taxes for any Tax period (or portion thereof) ending on or prior to the Closing Date, excluding 50% of any Transfer Taxes incurred in connection with this Agreement or any of the Contemplated Transactions, or (iv) third-party demands, threats, allegations, claims, proceedings or actions against any of the Stockholders or the Company. Losses in connection with the foregoing subsection 6.2(a)(iv) shall include all costs and expenses, including, without limitation, all out-of-pocket expenses and all attorneys’ fees incurred by the Buyer. Such Losses shall be owed and payable by the Stockholders as and when incurred by the Buyer, and the Buyer shall have the right to set-off such Losses against any amounts owed by the Buyer to the Stockholders hereunder on a dollar-for-dollar basis and in an amount equal to the aggregate dollar value of such Losses. “Transfer Taxes” shall mean any transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other substantially similar Taxes and fees.

(b)Indemnification by the Buyer. Subject to the other terms of this Section 6.2, the Buyer will defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Stockholders and each of their respective Representatives (collectively, the “Stockholder Indemnified Parties”) from and against and in respect of any and all Losses incurred by any of the Stockholder Indemnified Parties arising out of, based upon or related to (i) any inaccuracy or breach of any of the representations or warranties made by the Buyer in this Agreement, or (ii) any breach of or failure to comply with any covenant or agreement made by the Buyer in this Agreement.

(c)Indemnification Procedure.

(i)The Person seeking indemnification under this Section 6.2 (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give to the party(ies) from whom indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) prompt written notice (in the case of indemnification under Section 6.2(a), such notice shall be given to the Stockholders’ Agent) of any third-party claim which may give rise to any indemnity obligation under this Section 6.2, and the Indemnifying Party will have the right to assume the defense of any such claim through counsel of its own choosing, by so notifying the Indemnified Party within ten (10) days of receipt of the Indemnified Party’s written notice; provided, however, that such counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. Failure of the Indemnified Party to give prompt notice shall not affect the Indemnifying Party’s indemnification obligations hereunder except to the extent the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure. If the Indemnified Party desires to participate in any such defense assumed by the Indemnifying Party, it may do so at its sole cost and expense; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party will be entitled to participate in any such defense with separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party if, in the reasonable judgment of counsel to the Indemnified Party, a conflict or potential conflict exists, or there are separate or additional defenses available to the Indemnified Party, that would make such separate representation advisable. If the Indemnifying Party declines to assume any such defense or fails to diligently pursue any such defense, then the Indemnifying Party will be liable for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with investigating, defending, settling and/or otherwise dealing with such claim, including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel. The parties hereto agree to cooperate with each other in connection with the defense of any such claim. The Indemnifying Party will not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, settle, compromise, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any such claim, unless such settlement, compromise or judgment (A) does not result in the imposition of a consent order, injunction or decree that would restrict the future activity or conduct of the Indemnified Party or any Affiliate thereof, (B) does not involve any remedies other than monetary damages, and (C) includes an unconditional release of the Indemnified Party and its Affiliates for all liability arising out of such claim and any related claim. The Indemnified Party will not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, settle, compromise, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any such claim.

(ii)If an indemnification claim by any Indemnified Party is not disputed by the Indemnifying Party within twenty (20) days after the Indemnifying Party’s having received written notice thereof, or has been resolved by a Law of a Governmental Entity, by a settlement of the indemnification claim in accordance with Section 6.2(c)(i) or by agreement of the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party (any of the foregoing, a “Resolution”), then (A) in the case of indemnification under Section 6.2(b), the Buyer will pay to the Stockholder Indemnified Party promptly following such Resolution an amount in cash equal to the Losses of such Stockholder Indemnified Party as set forth in such Resolution, or (B) in the case of indemnification under Section 6.2(a), the Buyer will deliver evidence of such Resolution to the Stockholders’ Agent, whereupon the Stockholders’ Agent will deliver to the Buyer Indemnified Party an amount equal to the Losses of such Buyer Indemnified Party as set forth in such Resolution. At the election of the Stockholders’ Agent, the amount to be delivered to the Buyer Indemnified Party in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence may be deducted from the 36-Month Cash/Stock Payments or Performance Payments (if and only to the extent such amount has been earned) on a pro rata basis among the Stockholders determined in accordance with the allocation set forth in Section 1.2(b) of the Company Disclosure Schedule. Except as otherwise specifically provided in Section 6.2(d), the depletion of the 36-Month Cash/Stock Payments and Performance Payments will not serve as a bar to recovery by the Buyer Indemnified Parties from the Stockholders of any indemnifiable Losses, and the Buyer Indemnified Parties will be entitled to look directly to the Stockholders for any Losses in excess of the such amounts, and such Losses will be the obligations of the Stockholders as provided in Section 6.2(a) and will be paid to the applicable Buyer Indemnified Party promptly following such Resolution.

(d)Limitations.

(i)The foregoing indemnification obligations will survive the consummation of the Stock Purchase for a period of three (3) years following the Closing Date; provided, however, that the right to indemnification arising out of, based upon or related to any inaccuracy or breach of any of the representations or warranties contained in Sections 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, 2.5, 2.13, 2.15, 2.18, 2.19, 2.20, 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.5, 3.6, 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.4, 4.6 and the first sentence of Section 2.14(a) (collectively, the “Fundamental Representations”) will survive until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, including any extensions thereof, or, if no statute of limitations is applicable

thereto, for a period of four (4) years after the Closing Date; and provided, further, that claims first asserted in writing within the applicable survival period will not thereafter be barred.

(iii)(A) Except for any indemnification claims arising out of, based upon or related to fraud or intentional misrepresentation, or any indemnification claims arising out of, based upon or related to any of the Fundamental Representations (none of which will be counted towards the Representations Claims Cap), the maximum liability of the Stockholders for any and all Losses in respect of indemnification claims brought under Section 6.2(a)(i) shall be limited to an amount equal to $2,000,000 (the “Representations Claims Cap”), and (B) except for any indemnification claims arising out of, based upon or related to fraud or intentional misrepresentation (none of which will be counted towards the Aggregate Claims Cap), the maximum liability of the Stockholders for any and all Losses in respect of indemnification claims brought under Section 6.2(a) shall be limited to an amount equal to the Purchase Price paid to or earned by the Stockholders (the “Aggregate Claims Cap”).

(vi)The right of an Indemnified Party to indemnification hereunder will not be affected by any investigation conducted, or any knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired), at any time, whether before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the Closing Date, with respect to the accuracy of, or compliance with, any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement.

(vii)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 6.2, each Stockholders’ liability with respect to indemnification claims under Section 6.2(a) shall be several, not joint, based upon the pro rata share of the Purchase Price paid to or earned by each of the Stockholders as such share is set forth in Section 1.2(b) of the Company Disclosure Schedule.

(viii)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 6.2, the other Stockholders shall not be liable for any liability with respect to indemnification claims related solely to the inaccuracy or breach by an individual Stockholder of any of his or her representations or warranties under Article III or covenants under Section 6.3, and the Stockholder responsible for such inaccuracy or breach will be liable for the full amount of the related indemnification claims, subject to the other limitations set forth in this Section 6.2(d).

(ix)In calculating the amount of Losses recoverable pursuant to this Section 6.2, the amount of such Losses shall be reduced by (A) any insurance proceeds actually received by the Indemnified Party from any unaffiliated insurance carrier offsetting the amount of such Loss, net of any expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party in obtaining such insurance proceeds (including the payment of a deductible with respect to the same and any premium increase directly attributable thereto), and (B) any recoveries actually received by the

Indemnified Party from other Persons pursuant to indemnification (or otherwise) with respect thereto, net of any expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party in obtaining such payment. If any Losses for which indemnification payments have actually been received by the Indemnified Party hereunder are subsequently reduced by any insurance payment or other recovery actually received from another Person, the Indemnified Party shall promptly remit the amount of such recovery to the applicable Indemnifying Party (up to the amount of the payment by the applicable Indemnifying Party, after deducting therefrom the full amount of the expenses incurred by such Indemnified Party (i) in procuring such recovery or (ii) in connection with such indemnification to the extent required to be, but which have not been, paid or reimbursed).

(x)Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no Stockholder shall be liable to any Buyer Indemnified Party, and Buyer shall not be liable to any Stockholder Indemnified Party, for any punitive damages.

(xi)Following the Closing Date, the sole and exclusive remedy of the Buyer Indemnified Parties and the Stockholder Indemnified Parties with respect to any and all claims relating to this Agreement or the Company Disclosure Schedule, the Buyer Disclosure Schedule shall be indemnification in accordance with this Section 6.2, except with respect to any claim arising out of, based upon or related to fraud or intentional misrepresentation or a breach of any of the covenants set forth in Section 6.3 or Article I, and provided that any claims under the Employment Agreement shall not be limited by this section and shall be subject to any applicable remedies thereunder. Each Indemnified Party entitled to indemnification hereunder shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate Losses for which it seeks indemnification hereunder, and the costs and expenses incurred in connection with such mitigation efforts shall be deemed Losses for purposes of this Section 6.2.

(e)The parties to this Agreement agree to treat any indemnity payment made pursuant to Section 6.2 as an adjustment to the aggregate Purchase Price for federal, state, local and foreign income tax purposes.

Section 3Non-Competition. As a material inducement to the Buyer’s consummation of the Contemplated Transactions, including, without limitation, the Buyer’s acquisition of the goodwill associated with the business of the Company, each of the Principals set forth on Section 6.3 of the Company Disclosure Schedule, agrees as to sub-sections (a)-(d) below. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, except as set forth in Section 6.3(a), to the extent of any conflict between the applicable provisions contained in the Employment Agreement and this Section 6.3, the terms hereof shall control.

(a)Such Principal will not, for a period of two (2) years following the Closing Date (or, with respect to each Principal, if longer, co-terminus with the non-compete provisions in the Employment Agreement) (computed by excluding from such computation any time during which such Principal is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been in violation of any provision of this Section 6.3(a)) (the “Restricted Period”), directly or indirectly, for himself or herself on behalf of or in conjunction with any other Person, engage in, invest in or otherwise participate in (whether as an owner, employee, officer, director, manager, consultant, independent contractor, agent, partner, advisor, or in any other capacity) any business that competes with the business of the Company (such business, the “Restricted Business”) in any Restricted Area, or at any time following the Closing Date make any use of any Company Intellectual Property other than in connection with the business of the Company. Notwithstanding the above, the foregoing covenant shall not be deemed to prohibit the acquisition as a passive investment of not more than five percent (5%) of the capital stock of a competing business whose stock is traded on a national securities exchange or over-the-counter and shall not be deemed to prohibit the acquisition of any capital stock of the Buyer.

(b)Such Principal will not, for a period of two (2) years following the Closing Date (or, with respect to each Stockholder, if longer, co-terminus with the non-solicitation provisions in the Employment Agreement) (computed by excluding from such computation any time during which such Stockholder is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been in violation of any provision of this Section 6.3(b)), directly or indirectly, for himself or herself or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other Person, (i) solicit or hire (or assist or encourage any other Person to solicit or hire), or otherwise interfere in any manner with any employee, advertiser or strategic partner of any of the Buyer, the Company, or any of the Buyer’s subsidiaries (each, a “Restricted Entity”), other than by general public advertisement or other such general solicitation not specifically targeted at any such Person, (ii) induce or request any customer of any Restricted Entity to reduce, cancel or terminate its business with such Restricted Entity or otherwise interfere in any manner in any Restricted Entity’s business relationship with any of its customers, or (iii) solicit or accept business from any customer of any Restricted Entity in connection with a Restricted Business. For purposes of this Section 6.3(b), a Person shall be deemed to be an employee, customer, advertiser or strategic partner of any Restricted Entity if any such relationship existed or exists at any time (A) during the 12 months prior to the

execution of this Agreement or (B) after the Closing Date and during the operation of this provision, and any such Person shall cease to have the applicable status one year after the termination of any such relationship.

(c)Such Principal agrees that the foregoing covenants are reasonable with respect to their duration, geographic area and scope, to protect, among other things, the Buyer’s acquisition of the goodwill associated with the business of the Company. If a judicial or arbitral determination is made that any provision of this Section 6.3 constitutes an unreasonable or otherwise unenforceable restriction against a Principal, then the provisions of this Section 6.3 shall be rendered void with respect to such Principal only to the extent such judicial or arbitral determination finds such provisions to be unenforceable. In that regard, any judicial or arbitral authority construing this Section 6.3 shall be empowered to sever any prohibited business activity, time period or geographical area from the coverage of any such agreements and to apply the remaining provisions of this Section 6.3 to the remaining business activities, time periods and/or geographical areas not so severed. Moreover, in the event that any provision, or the application thereof, of this Section 6.5 is determined not to be specifically enforceable, the Buyer may be entitled to recover monetary damages as a result of the breach of such agreement.

(d)Such Principal acknowledges that he or she has carefully read and considered the provisions of this Section 6.3. Such Principal acknowledges that he or she has received and will receive sufficient consideration and other benefits to justify the restrictions in this Section 6.3. Such Principal also acknowledges and understands that these restrictions are reasonably necessary to protect interests of the Buyer, including, without limitation, protection of the goodwill acquired, and such Principal acknowledges that such restrictions will not prevent him or her from conducting businesses that are not included in the Restricted Business set forth in this Section 6.3 during the periods covered by the restrictive covenants set forth in this Section 6.3. Such Principal also acknowledges that the Contemplated Transactions constitute full and adequate consideration for the execution and enforceability of the restrictions set forth in this Section 6.3.

Section 4Employee Matters.

(a)An Employment Agreement for Xxxxxxx XxXxxx shall be executed concurrently with this Agreement, and shall be a condition precedent for Closing. Under her Employment Agreement, the form of which is attached as Exhibit A hereto, Xx. XxXxxx shall hold the title of Vice President- Content, be entitled to receive a base salary of $150,000 per year and stock options in line with the Buyer’s Vice President band, and continue to manage the Company, reporting to Xxxx Xxxxxx, the Buyer’s Senior Vice President - Content. The Employment Agreement shall have a three-year term and provide for other terms customary for employment arrangements of this type; the final terms of which will be mutually agreed upon by both the Buyer and Xx. XxXxxx. No rights to employment will exist unless and until such Employment Agreement is executed and delivered.

(b)The Buyer hereby agrees that it shall, or it shall cause the Company to, offer employment to each employee of the Company as of the Closing (each, an “Employee”) at substantially the same level of compensation and employee benefits (other than equity incentive arrangements) that were provided to each such Employee immediately prior to the Closing. The Buyer further acknowledges that Xxxx Xxxxxx and Xxxxxx Xxxx may stay in their sales roles with the Company or may be moved to another role within the Company or Buyer’s organization. Following the Closing, Buyer intends to establish a new “eCommerce Content” sales pod and cross-train existing Company sales staff to sell into current Buyer accounts.

(c)Nothing contained herein, express or implied: (i) shall be construed to establish, amend or modify any benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement, (ii) shall alter or limit the Buyer’s or the Company’s ability to amend, modify or terminate any particular benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement as long as the Buyer otherwise satisfies its obligations under this Section 6.4, (iii) is intended to confer upon any current or former employee (except for Xx. XxXxxx) any right to employment or continued employment for any period of time by reason of this Agreement, or any right to a particular term or condition of employment, or (iv) is intended to confer upon any individual (including employees, retirees, or dependents or beneficiaries of employees or retirees) any right as a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement.

Section 5Tax Covenants.

(a)To the extent permitted under applicable Law, the Company shall close or terminate (or cause to be closed or terminated), as of the close of business on the Closing Date, each Tax period relating to any Company Tax or Company Tax Return.

(b)To the extent not filed prior hereto, the Stockholders’ Agent will prepare or cause to be prepared, in accordance with applicable Law and consistent with past practice of the Company, each Company Tax Return for each Pre-Closing Period. At least twenty (20) days prior to the date on which a Company Tax Return for a Pre-Closing

Period is due (after taking into account any valid extension), the Stockholders’ Agent will deliver such Company Tax Return to the Buyer. No later than five (5) days prior to the date on which a Company Tax Return for a Pre-Closing Period is due (after taking into account any valid extension), Buyer may make reasonable changes and revisions to such Company Tax Return. The Stockholders’ Agent will cooperate fully in making any reasonable changes and revisions to any Company Tax Return for a Pre-Closing Period. At least three (3) days prior to the date on which a Company Tax Return (as reasonably revised by the Buyer) for a Pre-Closing Period is due (after taking into account any valid extension), the Stockholders will pay to the Buyer an amount equal to any Company Tax due with respect to such Company Tax Return, and the Buyer will file such Company Tax Return.

(c)Buyer will prepare and file each Company Tax Return for any Post-Closing Period or any Straddle Period in accordance with applicable Law. At least twenty (20) days prior to the date on which a Company Tax Return for a Straddle Period is due (after taking into account any valid extension), Buyer will deliver such Company Tax Return to the Stockholders’ Agent. No later than five (5) days prior to the date on which a Company Tax Return for any Straddle Period is due (after taking into account any valid extension), the Stockholders’ Agent may make reasonable changes and revisions to such Company Tax Return. Buyer will cooperate fully in making any reasonable changes and revisions to any Company Tax Return for any Straddle Period. At least three (3) days prior to the date on which such Company Tax Return (as reasonably revised by the Stockholders’ Agent) for a Straddle Period is due (after taking into account any valid extension), the Stockholders will pay to the Buyer an amount equal to the Company Tax on such Company Tax Return to the extent such Company Tax relates, as determined under Section 6.5(d), to the portion of such Straddle Period ending on and including the Closing Date.

(d)In the case of a Company Tax payable for a Straddle Period, the portion of such Company Tax that relates to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date will (i) in the case of a Tax other than a Tax based upon or related to income, employment, sales or other transactions, franchise or receipts, be deemed to be 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 portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of all of the days in the Straddle Period; and (ii) in the case of a Tax based upon or related to income, employment, sales or other transactions, franchise or receipts, be deemed equal to the amount that would be payable if the Straddle Period ended on the Closing Date and such Tax was based on an interim closing of the books as of the close of business on the Closing Date.

(e)Each party will promptly forward to the other a copy of all written communications from any Governmental Entity relating to any Company Tax or Company Tax Return for a Pre-Closing Period or Straddle Period. Upon reasonable request, each party will make available to the other all information, records and other documents relating to any Company Tax or any Company Tax Return for a Pre-Closing Period or Straddle Period. The parties will preserve all information, records and other documents relating to a Company Tax or a Company Tax Return for a Pre-Closing Period or Straddle Period until the date that is six (6) months after the expiration of the statute of limitations applicable to the Company Tax or the Company Tax Return. Prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any information, records or documents relating to any Company Tax or any Company Tax Return for a Pre-Closing Period or Straddle Period, the applicable Stockholder will give to Buyer reasonable written notice and, to the extent Buyer so requests, such Stockholder will permit Buyer to take possession of all such information, records and documents. In addition, the parties will cooperate with each other in connection with all matters relating to the preparation of any Company Tax Return or the payment of any Company Tax for a Pre-Closing Period or Straddle Period and in connection with any audit, action, suit, claim or proceeding relating to any such Company Tax or Company Tax Return, and Buyer will have the right to control any such audit, action, suit, claim or proceeding. Nothing in this Section 6.5(e) will affect or limit any indemnity or similar provision or any representations, warranties or obligations of any of the parties. Each party will bear its own costs and expenses in complying with the provisions of this Section 6.5(e).

(f)Buyer and the Stockholders shall each be liable for and each shall pay when due fifty percent (50%) of all Transfer Taxes incurred in connection with this Agreement or any of the Contemplated Transactions. The party required by any legal requirement to file a Tax Return or other documentation with respect to such Transfer Taxes shall do so within the time period prescribed by Law, and the other party shall promptly reimburse such party for any Transfer Taxes for which the other party is responsible upon receipt of notice that such Transfer Taxes are payable. The Principal Stockholders will be jointly and severally liable for the Stockholders’ portion of such Transfer Taxes and the Minority Stockholders will be severally liable therefor based upon the pro rata share of the Purchase Price to be received by each of the Minority Stockholders as set forth in Section 1.2(b) of the Company Disclosure Schedule.

To the extent permitted by any applicable legal requirement, the parties hereto shall cooperate in taking reasonable steps to minimize any Transfer Taxes.

(g)None of the Stockholders will make or request a refund of any Company Tax or with respect to any Company Tax Return or amend any Company Tax Return, unless the Buyer, in its reasonable discretion, consents in writing thereto. The Buyer will not be obligated to seek or request any refund of any Company Tax or amend any Company Tax Return, unless Buyer is reimbursed for out-of-pocket costs incurred in preparing such Tax Return and Buyer determines in its reasonable discretion that neither the Buyer nor any of its subsidiaries will be adversely impacted by filing such Tax Return.

(h)Any Tax sharing or similar agreement with respect to or involving the Company will be terminated as of the Closing Date, without liability to any party, and will have no further effect for any year (whether the current year, a future year or a past year). Any amounts payable under any Tax sharing or similar agreement will be cancelled as of the Closing Date, without any liability to the Company.

Section 6Stockholders’ Agent.

(a)Each of the Stockholders hereby authorizes, directs and appoints Xxxxxx XxXxxx (the “Stockholders’ Agent”) to act as sole and exclusive agent, attorney-in-fact and representative of such Stockholder with respect to all matters arising under, in connection with or relating to this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents, including, without limitation, (i) asserting, defending, prosecuting, litigating, arbitrating, negotiating, settling, releasing and resolving any matters, claims (including indemnification claims and claims for Losses), differences, disputes and controversies of any nature whatsoever under any of the Transaction Documents, (ii) entering into amendments of this Agreement and waivers of any of the provisions of this Agreement, (iii) determining, giving and receiving notices and processes under any of the Transaction Documents, (iv) performing the rights and duties expressly assigned to the Stockholders’ Agent hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents, (v) engaging and employing agents and Representatives on behalf of such Stockholders and the Stockholders’ Agent in connection with all such matters under any of the Transaction Documents, (vi) entering into agreements (including releases) on behalf of such Stockholders with respect to any of the foregoing, and (vii) taking all actions and incurring all expenses as the Stockholders’ Agent shall reasonably deem necessary or prudent in connection with any of the foregoing; all on such terms and in such manner as he deems appropriate in her or his sole and absolute discretion. Any such actions taken, exercises of rights, power or authority, and any decision, determination, waiver, amendment or agreement made by the Stockholders’ Agent consistent herewith, shall be absolutely and irrevocably binding on such Stockholder as if such Stockholder personally had taken such action, exercised such rights, power or authority or made such decision, determination, waiver, amendment or agreement in such Stockholder’s individual capacity, and no such Stockholder shall have the right to object, dissent, protest or otherwise contest the same. Any action required to be taken by such Stockholder hereunder or under any of the other Transaction Documents or any such action which a Stockholder, at his or her election, has the right to take hereunder or under any of the other Transaction Documents, shall be taken only and exclusively by the Stockholders’ Agent and no Stockholder acting on her or his own shall be entitled to take any such action. The Stockholders’ Agent will, in a reasonably prompt manner, provide written notice to each such Stockholder of any action taken by the Stockholders’ Agent pursuant to the authority delegated under this Section.

(b)The appointment of the Stockholders’ Agent as such Stockholder’s attorney-in-fact revokes any power of attorney heretofore granted that authorized any other Person or Persons to represent such Stockholder with regard to any or all of the Transaction Documents. The appointment of the Stockholders’ Agent as attorney-in-fact pursuant hereto is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable.

(c)The Stockholders’ Agent hereby accepts the foregoing appointment and agrees to serve in such capacity, subject to the provisions hereof, for the period of time from and after the date hereof without compensation except for the reimbursement from such Stockholders of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Stockholders’ Agent in her or his capacity as such. Each such Stockholder hereby waives all actual or potential conflicts of interest arising out of the Stockholders’ Agent’s activities or authority as Stockholders’ Agent and her or his relationships with the Company or the Buyer (whether before or after the Closing), whether as an employee, consultant, agent, director, officer, stockholder or other Representative.

(d)Such Stockholders will severally indemnify and hold harmless the Stockholders’ Agent from and against any and all Losses arising out of actions taken or omitted to be taken pursuant to the provisions of this Section 6.6 and such other provisions of this Agreement as may be applicable (except in the case of the individual bad faith or willful misconduct of the Stockholders’ Agent), including the reasonable fees of attorneys, accountants and other advisors and all costs and expenses of investigation and defense of claims. The several liability of each such

Stockholder under this Section 6.6(d) will equal the amount of such Losses multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the aggregate Purchase Price to be received by such Stockholder as set forth in Section 1.2(b) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, and the denominator of which shall be the aggregate Purchase Price to be received by all of the Stockholders as set forth in Section 1.2(b) of the Company Disclosure Schedule.

(e)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Stockholders’ Agent shall have no liabilities, duties or responsibilities to the Stockholders except those expressly set forth herein or in any of the other Transaction Documents, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities on behalf of any such Stockholder shall otherwise exist against the Stockholders’ Agent. The Stockholders’ Agent shall not, by virtue of acting as Stockholders’ Agent or any of the actions taken in such capacity, be deemed to have assumed any liability or become responsible for any obligation of any such Stockholder to any Person.

(f)The Stockholders’ Agent may resign upon written notice to the Stockholders. In the event that the Person named in Section 6.6(a) is unable or unwilling to serve in such capacity under this Section 6.6 at any time, Xxxxxxx XxXxxx is hereby designated to serve as agent, attorney-in-fact and representative of each such Stockholder under this Section 6.6 in the place of the Person who is unable or unwilling to so serve. Such successor agent, attorney-in-fact and representative shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties under this Section 6.6 of the Person unable or unwilling to so serve. After any Person’s resignation or inability to serve under this Section 6.6, the provisions of this Section 6.6 shall continue to inure to her or his benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by him pursuant to the authority granted in this Section 6.6.

(g)Each of the Buyer and the Company (i) will be fully protected in relying upon and will be entitled to rely upon, and will have no liability to such Stockholders with respect to, agreements, actions, decisions and determinations of the Stockholders’ Agent in connection with this Agreement or any of the Transaction Documents, and (ii) will be entitled to assume that all agreements, actions, decisions and determinations of the Stockholders’ Agent in connection with this Agreement or any of the Transaction Documents are fully authorized by and binding upon all of such Stockholders.

(h)The Stockholders’ Agent shall not be liable to any of the Stockholders or any of their respective heirs, successors, assigns, personal representatives or Affiliates for any decisions made or actions taken or omitted to be taken by the Stockholders’ Agent, except in the case of bad faith or willful misconduct. The Stockholders’ Agent may consult with legal counsel of her or his own choice with respect to all such matters.

Section 7Rule 144. The Buyer hereby agrees to maintain adequate current information about the Buyer and remain a reporting company during the Measuring Periods and for at least 12 months after the end of the last Measuring Period to afford the Stockholders the right to resale under Rule 144 (assuming all the other conditions are met), unless there is a Change of Control or if the Buyer’s Board of Directors, in the exercise of their good faith business judgment and fiduciary duties, determines otherwise.

Section 8Company Location. The Buyer hereby agrees that substantially all of the Company’s executive operations will remain in Mountain View, California through December 31, 2017, unless relocation of the Company is mutually agreed upon by the Stockholders’ Agent and the Buyer.
