AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER (this “Agreement”), made and entered into as of August 8, 2016 by and among FORM HOLDINGS CORP., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), FHXMS, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned Subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), XPRESSPA HOLDINGS, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”), THE UNITHOLDERS OF THE COMPANY WHO ARE PARTIES HERETO OR WHO BECOME PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT BY EXECUTING A JOINDER AGREEMENT, and MISTRAL XH REPRESENTATIVE, LLC, as representative of the unitholders of the Company (the “Unitholders’ Representative”). Parent, Merger Sub and the Company are sometimes referred to herein each individually as a “Party” and, collectively, as the “Parties.”

WHEREAS, the Boards of Directors of Parent and the Company and the sole member of Merger Sub have each declared it to be advisable and in the best interests of each corporation or limited liability company, as the case may be, and their respective stockholders, members and unitholders, as applicable, that Parent acquire the Company via the Merger (as hereinafter defined) in order to advance their long-term business interests; and

WHEREAS, the Boards of Directors of Parent and the Company and the sole member of Merger Sub have each approved this Agreement and the merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company, with the Company surviving (the “Merger”), in accordance with the Limited Liability Company Act of the State of Delaware (the “Delaware LLC Act”) and the terms and conditions set forth herein, which Merger will result in, among other things, the Company becoming a wholly-owned Subsidiary of Parent, and the unitholders of the Company as of immediately prior to the Closing (the “Company Unitholders”) becoming stockholders of Parent.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual representations, warranties, covenants and agreements herein contained, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE I
THE MERGER

1.1 The Merger. At the Effective Time (as defined in Section 1.3), in accordance with the Delaware LLC Act and the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Merger Sub shall be merged with and into the Company. From and after the Effective Time, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub shall cease and the Company, as the surviving entity in the Merger, shall continue its existence under the Delaware LLC Act as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent. The Company as the surviving entity after the Merger is hereinafter sometimes referred to as the “Surviving Entity.”

1.2 Closing. Unless this Agreement shall have been terminated and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement abandoned pursuant to the provisions of Article IX, and subject to the satisfaction or waiver, as the case may be, of the conditions set forth in Article VI, the closing of the Merger and other transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall take place at 10:00 a.m. (eastern time) on a date to be mutually agreed upon by the Parties (the “Closing Date”), which date shall be no later than the second (2^nd) Business Day (as defined below) after all of the conditions set forth in Article VI (excluding conditions that, by their nature, cannot be satisfied until the Closing) shall have been satisfied or waived in accordance with Section 9.5, unless another time and/or date is agreed to in writing by the Parties. The Closing shall take place at the offices of Mintz, Levin, Cohn, Ferris, Glovsky and Popeo, P.C., 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000. For purposes of this Agreement, “Business Day” shall mean any day other than (i) a Saturday or Sunday or (ii) a day on which banking and savings and loan institutions are authorized or required by law to be closed in the State of New York.

1.3 Effective Time. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, on the Closing Date or as soon thereafter as is practicable, the Parties shall cause the Merger to become effective by executing and filing in accordance with the Delaware LLC Act a certificate of merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware in substantially the form of Exhibit A attached hereto (the “Certificate of Merger”), the date and time of such filing, or such later date and time as may be agreed upon by the Parties and specified therein, being hereinafter referred to as the “Effective Time.”

1.4 Effect of the Merger. At the Effective Time, the Merger shall have the effects set forth in this Agreement, the Certificate of Merger and in the applicable provisions of the Delaware LLC Act. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, at the Effective Time all the assets, properties, leases, licenses, membership interests, rights, privileges, immunities, powers and franchises of the Company and Merger Sub shall vest in the Surviving Entity, and all debts, liabilities and duties of the Company and Merger Sub shall become the debts, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Entity.

1.5 Certificate of Formation and Limited Liability Company Agreement of the Surviving Entity. At the Effective Time, the Limited Liability Company Agreement of the Company as amended and in effect as of the immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Company Operating Agreement”), shall be amended and restated as set forth in Exhibit B (the “Amended and Restated Operating Agreement”), and the certificate of formation of the Company in effect as of the immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Company Certificate of Formation”) shall be amended and restated as set forth in Exhibit C (the “Amended and Restated Certificate of Formation”), and such documents as amended and restated shall be the certificate of formation and limited liability company agreement, as applicable, of the Surviving Entity until amended in accordance with the respective terms thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, as between the Company Unitholders, the terms of the Company Operating Agreement shall continue to govern their rights with respect to each other (including with respect to the distribution of any Merger Consideration received or released from escrow after the Effective Time).

1.6 Directors and Officers of the Surviving Entity. Subject to applicable Law, at the Effective Time, the (i) members of the board of managers of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the members of the board of managers of the Surviving Entity, and (ii) the officers of Merger Sub at the Effective Time shall be the officers of the Surviving Entity, in each instance, to hold office in accordance with the Amended and Restated Operating Agreement and the Amended and Restated Certificate of Formation.

1.7 Merger Consideration; Effect on Capital Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Parties or the holders of the following securities:

(a) Merger Consideration; Effect on Company Units. Each Common Unit of the Company (“Company Common Unit”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than any Company Common Units to be canceled and retired pursuant to Section 1.7(b)) and each Series A Preferred Unit, Series B Preferred Unit or Series C Preferred Unit of the Company (collectively, the “Company Preferred Units” and collectively with the Company Common Units, but excluding any Company Common Units or Company Preferred Units to be canceled and retired pursuant to Section 1.7(b), the “Company Units”)) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than any Company Preferred Units to be canceled and retired pursuant to Section 1.7(b)) shall immediately cease to be outstanding, shall automatically be cancelled and retired, shall cease to exist and shall be converted into the right to receive, in the aggregate (as adjusted in accordance with Section 1.8, the “Merger Consideration”) (i) 2,500,000 fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock of Parent, par value $0.01 per share (the “Parent Common Stock”), (ii) 494,792 shares of fully paid and non-assessable shares of Parent Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Parent Preferred Stock,” and together with Parent Common Stock “Parent Capital Stock”), and (iii) warrants to purchase an aggregate of 2,500,000 shares of Parent Common Stock with an exercise price of $3.00 per share, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D (the “Parent Warrants”). The Merger Consideration shall be distributed in accordance with this Section 1.7 and Section 1.10. For the avoidance of doubt, the Parent Preferred Stock to be issued as part of the Merger Consideration shall have an aggregate initial liquidation preference of $23,750,000 and shall be convertible into an aggregate of 3,958,336 shares of Parent Common Stock (subject to adjustment as set forth in the Certificate of Designation and Section 1.8) and shall have the rights, preferences and privileges as set forth in the Certificate of Designations as set forth in Exhibit E attached hereto.

(b) Cancellation of Units. Each Company Unit either held in the Company’s treasury or owned by Parent or any direct or indirect Subsidiary (as defined in Section 2.2(g)) of Parent or the Company, in each case, immediately prior to the Effective Time, if any, shall be canceled and extinguished without any conversion thereof or payment therefor. All “out of the money” profits interests or rights to profits interests relating to the Company (which such profits interests or rights to profits interests are set forth in Section 1.7(b) of the Company Disclosure Schedule) outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be canceled and extinguished without any conversion thereof or payment therefor.

(c) Membership Interests in Merger Sub. Each membership interest of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, from and after the Effective Time, be automatically converted into and become one validly issued common unit of the Surviving Entity. For the avoidance of doubt, such common units of the Surviving Entity shall, from and after the Effective Time, constitute the only membership interests of the Surviving Entity and shall be owned 100% by Parent.

(d) No Further Ownership Rights in Company Units. The Merger Consideration to be issued in exchange for the Company Units in accordance with the terms of this Article I (together with any cash in lieu of fractional shares paid in respect thereof) shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such Company Units under this Article I.

(e) Dissenters’ Rights. No dissenters’ or appraisal rights shall be available with respect to the Merger.

1.8 Adjustments to Merger Consideration. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Parent Common Stock and Parent Preferred Stock and the number of shares of Parent Common Stock for which the Parent Warrants are exercisable shall be adjusted to reflect any share split, combination or reclassification or other similar adjustment to shares of Parent’s capital stock between the date hereof and the Closing.

1.9 No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Parent Common Stock or Parent Preferred Stock shall be issued as part of the distribution of the Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 1.10 or upon exercise of a Parent Warrant, and such fractional share interests will not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any other rights of a stockholder of Parent. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each holder of Company Units who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock or Parent Preferred Stock in accordance with the distribution set forth in Section 1.10 or upon exercise of a Parent Warrant shall receive from Parent, in lieu thereof, the next highest number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock or Parent Preferred Stock, as applicable.

1.10 Payment of Merger Consideration. The Merger Consideration shall be payable at Closing as follows:

(a) Escrow. Prior to the Closing, Parent and Unitholders’ Representative shall designate American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC to act as escrow agent following the Closing (the “Escrow Agent“) pursuant to an escrow agreement to be executed by and among the Unitholders’ Representative, Parent and the Escrow Agent in substantially the form of Exhibit F hereto (the “Escrow Agreement“). Concurrently with the Closing, Parent shall deposit the number of shares of Parent Preferred Stock determined in accordance with Section 7.7 (the “Escrowed Shares”), which Escrowed Shares shall be distributed in accordance with Section 7.7 and the Escrow Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt and for purposes of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, the nominal value of a share of Parent Preferred Stock deposited with the Escrow Agent shall be equal to its initial liquidation value.

(b) Acquisition Shares. At the Closing, Parent shall authorize its transfer agent to deliver to the Company Unitholders, in accordance with the following sentence, that number of shares of Parent Capital Stock equal to (i) the number of shares of Parent Capital Stock comprising the aggregate Merger Consideration, minus (ii) the Escrowed Shares (such difference the “Acquisition Shares”); provided, however, that the number of Acquisition Shares shall be subject to reduction pursuant to Section 7.2(h) of the Company Disclosure Schedule. From and after the Closing, the Unitholders’ Representative shall direct the Company to distribute the Acquisition Shares, the Indemnity Escrow Fund and Consents Escrow Fund, the Parent Common Stock and the Parent Warrants (in each case, subject to Section 1.9) to the Company Unitholders as directed by the Consideration Spreadsheet which, for the avoidance of doubt, will be prepared in accordance with the Company Operating Agreement.

(c) Any Acquisition Shares or Escrowed Shares that otherwise would be distributable to a Company Unitholder who has not executed a Joinder Agreement or any other appropriate documentation reasonably requested by the Unitholders’ Representative in connection with this Agreement shall be held by the Escrow Agent until receipt of all such documentation (at which time Parent and the Unitholders’ Representative shall deliver a joint written instruction to the Escrow Agent to release such Acquisition Shares and/or Escrowed Shares, as applicable, that would have otherwise been distributable to such Company Unitholder as of such date pursuant to this Agreement).

1.11 Consideration Spreadsheet.

(a) Before the Closing, the Company shall prepare and deliver to Parent a spreadsheet (the “Consideration Spreadsheet”), which shall set forth, as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, the following:

(i) the names and addresses of all Company Unitholders and that portion of the Acquisition Shares, Parent Common Stock and the Parent Warrants to be delivered (A) to each Company Unitholder following the Closing in accordance with Section 1.10(b) or (B) to the Escrow Agent on behalf of any Company Unitholder at the Closing in accordance with Section 1.10(c);

(ii) each Company Unitholder’s (A) pro rata share of indemnification obligations under Article VII (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall be measured in accordance with such Company Unitholder’s actual receipt of Merger Consideration in proportion to the aggregate Merger Consideration), and (B) pro rata share of the Indemnity Escrow Fund and the Consent Escrow Fund (which shall be calculated in accordance with the Company’s Operating Agreement) (the applicable pro rata share pursuant to clause (A) or (B) is referred to herein as a Company Unitholder’s “Pro Rata Share”); and

(iii) the amount of the Merger Consideration to be set aside as a reserve to pay fees, costs and expenses that the Unitholders’ Representative may incur pursuant to Article VIII.

(b) The Parties, including the Company Unitholders signatory to a Joinder Agreement, acknowledge and agree that Parent and Merger Sub shall be entitled to rely on the Consideration Spreadsheet for making payments of the Merger Consideration and the Indemnity Escrow Amount, if any. In addition, Parent and Merger Sub shall not be responsible for the calculations or the determinations regarding the calculations in the Consideration Spreadsheet. In addition, for purposes of determining a Company Unitholder’s applicable Pro Rata Share, Parent shall be entitled to rely on the Consideration Spreadsheet.

(c) In connection with the delivery of the Consideration Spreadsheet, the Company will deliver an updated Cap Table to Parent, updated to reflect the outstanding membership interests as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Updated Cap Table”).

1.12 No Liability. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, none of the Parent or the Surviving Entity shall be liable to a holder of Company Units for any Merger Consideration or any amount of cash properly paid to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law.

1.13 Taking of Necessary Action; Further Action. If, at any time and from time to time after the Effective Time, any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and to vest in the Surviving Entity full right, title and possession of all assets, properties, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Company and Merger Sub, the officers and directors of the Surviving Entity shall be and are fully authorized and directed, in the name of and on behalf of the Company and Merger Sub, to take, or cause to be taken, all such lawful and necessary action as is not inconsistent with this Agreement.

1.14 Withholding of Tax. Each of Parent, the Surviving Entity, and the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to (a) deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any Company Unitholder such amounts, if any, as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to such delivery and payment under the Code or any provision of state, local, provincial or foreign tax legal requirements; and (b) request and be provided any necessary Tax forms, including IRS Form W-9 or the appropriate IRS Form W-8, as applicable, or any similar information from the Company Unitholder and, to the extent required by applicable tax legal requirements, any beneficial owner of any interest in any of the Company Unitholders. To the extent that any amounts are so withheld and timely remitted to the appropriate taxing authority, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Company Unitholder in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by Parent, the Surviving Entity or the Escrow Agent, as the case may be. Parent and the Surviving Entity shall cooperate in good faith, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Escrow Agent to agree to cooperate in good faith with specific reasonable written requests from the Unitholders’ Representative on behalf of any Company Unitholder concerning reduction of or relief from potential deduction or withholding of Tax; provided that such Company Unitholder shall be responsible for any and all reasonable costs and expenses that may be incurred by the Parent, the Surviving Entity, and the Escrow Agent while cooperating with the Unitholders’ Representative; and provided further for the avoidance of doubt, that nothing in this Section 1.14 shall be construed in any way as undermining the ability of the Parent, the Surviving Entity, and the Escrow Agent to make such deduction or withholding, have such amount be treated as paid to the Person on behalf of which such deduction or withholding was made or otherwise limit any rights of any Parent Indemnitee pursuant to Section 7.2. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Parent, the Surviving Entity, and the Escrow Agent shall not apply any withholding pursuant to Section 1445 of the Code if the condition set forth in Section 6.2(n) of this Agreement is satisfied.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.2(a) or any other provision of this Agreement, subject to compliance with Section 4.2(b), the Company or its Board of Directors may directly or indirectly enter into discussions with any Person in response to an unsolicited bona fide written Company Acquisition Proposal by such Person, which Company Acquisition Proposal was made after the date of this Agreement and did not result from a breach of this Section 4.2(a), if and only to the extent that and prior to engaging in any such discussions with such Person (x) the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith after consultation with its outside legal counsel and other advisors, that such Company Acquisition Proposal either constitutes or could reasonably be expected to lead to a Company Superior Proposal and (y) the Company’s Board of Directors receives from such Person an Acceptable NDA.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, at any time prior to the Effective Time, the Company’s Board of Directors (or any committee thereof) may effect a Company Board Approval Change if (i) the Company has complied with its obligations under this Section 4.2 and (ii) the Company’s Board of Directors (or any committee thereof) determines in good faith (after consultation with outside legal counsel) that as a result of a (x) a Company Acquisition Proposal that could reasonably be expected to result in a Company Superior Proposal or (y) an event, development or change in circumstances that occurs or arises following the date of this Agreement, the failure to effect a Company Board Approval Change would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to the Company Unitholders under applicable law.

(e) For purposes of this Agreement:

(i) “Company Acquisition Proposal” means any offer, proposal, discussions, negotiations, indication of interest or inquiry (whether in writing or otherwise) by any Person (other than Parent or any Affiliate thereof) in a transaction or series of related transactions (other than the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) relating to: (i) any issuance, sale or other disposition of (including by way of merger, consolidation, business combination, equity exchange, recapitalization, joint venture, partnership or any similar transaction) securities (or options, rights or warrants to purchase, or securities convertible into or exchangeable for, such securities) representing 20% or more of the voting power or economic interests of Company or any Subsidiary (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any issuance of equity securities of Company but excluding the sale, transfer, acquisition or disposition of not more than 50% or more of the voting power or economic interests of any Subsidiary to an ACDBE partner), (ii) any direct or indirect sale, transfer, acquisition or disposition of more than 20% of the consolidated assets of Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole (measured by the fair market value thereof), including by way of purchase of stock, limited liability interests or other equity interests of the Subsidiaries or (iii) any merger, consolidation, equity exchange, business combination, recapitalization, reorganization, liquidation, joint venture, dissolution or any similar transaction involving the Company or any Subsidiary; provided that “Company Acquisition Proposal” shall exclude any transfer or sale of stock or assets of any of the Company’s Subsidiaries related to the disposition of the Company’s foreign operations.

(ii) “Company Superior Proposal” means any bona fide offer or proposal that constitutes a Company Acquisition Proposal on terms that the Company Board of Directors (or any committee thereof) shall have determined in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal counsel), taking into account all relevant legal (including conditions), financial, regulatory, timing and other aspects of such Company Acquisition Proposal, is reasonably likely to be consummated and would be more favorable to the Company Unitholders (in their capacity as such) than the Merger, if consummated (including after taking into account any changes to the terms of this Agreement proposed by the Parent in response to such Company Acquisition Proposal); provided that, for purposes of the definition of “Company Superior Proposal,” the references to “20%” in the definition of “Company Acquisition Proposal” shall be deemed to be references to “more than 50%.”

(f) any liability for (without duplication): (i) any and all Taxes, imposed on or with respect to the Company or its Subsidiaries or any property thereof for all Taxable periods ending on or before the Closing Date and the portion through the end of the Closing Date for any Straddle Period; (ii) any and all Taxes of any Person (other than the Company or its Subsidiaries) imposed on the Company or its Subsidiaries as a transferee or successor, by contract (other than contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business and not primarily related to Taxes) or otherwise, which Taxes relate to an event or transaction occurring before the Closing; and (iii) any withholding Taxes imposed on a Company Unitholder in connection with any consideration issued or otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement; and (iv) Transfer Taxes the Company Unitholders are responsible for under Section 10.6 of this Agreement;

(g) any claim by a D&O Indemnitee for indemnification arising out of claims made against the D&O Indemnitee by any Company Unitholder (or any Person purporting to be a holder of any limited liability interest or other equity interest in the Company) prior to the Effective Time (other than Parent with respect to the Series C Preferred Units of the Company); provided, that the Company Unitholders shall not be responsible for any such Losses for which coverage is paid to Parent under the D&O Insurance; and

(h) any Loss resulting from or arising out of the matter set forth on Section 7.2(h) of the Company Disclosure Schedules.

7.3 Indemnification by Parent. From and after the Effective Time, Parent shall indemnify and defend the Company Unitholders and their respective Affiliates and Representatives (the “Unitholder Indemnitees”) against, and shall hold them harmless from, any and all Losses resulting from, arising out of, or incurred by any Unitholder Indemnitee in connection with, or otherwise with respect to:

(a) any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation and warranty or other statement by Parent or Merger Sub contained in this Agreement or any certificate or other document furnished or to be furnished by Parent to the Company or the Company Unitholders in connection with the Closing of the Merger and other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, in each instance, as of the date of this Agreement; and

(b) any breach of any covenant or agreement of Parent or Merger Sub contained in this Agreement (other than Section 5.5(a) or the last sentence of Section 5.1(a)) or any other document furnished or to be furnished to the Company in connection with the Closing of the Merger and other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

7.4 Certain Limitations. The indemnification provided for in Section 7.2 and Section 7.3 shall be subject to the following limitations:

(a) The Company Unitholders shall have no obligation to indemnify Parent Indemnitees with respect to Losses arising under Section 7.2(a), until the aggregate amount of all Losses arising thereunder exceeds $310,000 (the “Deductible”), in which case Company Unitholders will be liable only for Losses arising thereunder in excess of the Deductible, subject to the other limitations in this Section 7.4; provided, however, that the Deductible shall not apply to Losses arising under Section 7.2(a) due to a breach of the Fundamental Representations.

(b) The Company Unitholders shall have no obligation to indemnify Parent Indemnitees with respect to aggregate Losses arising under Section 7.2(a) in excess of $5,000,000 (the “Cap”); provided, however that the Cap shall not apply to Losses arising under Section 7.2(a) due to a breach of the Fundamental Representations.

(c) Parent shall have no obligation to indemnify Unitholder Indemnitees with respect to Losses arising under Section 7.3(a) until the aggregate amount of all Losses arising thereunder exceeds the Deductible, in which case Parent will be liable only for Losses arising thereunder in excess of the Deductible, subject to the other limitations in this Section 7.4; provided, however, that the Deductible shall not apply to Losses arising under Section 7.3(a) due to a breach of the Fundamental Representations. The aggregate amount of all Losses for which Parent shall be liable pursuant to Section 7.3(a) shall not exceed the Cap.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the limitations set forth in this Section 7.4 shall not apply to Losses based upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason of any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the Fundamental Representations or in the case of actual fraud by the applicable Indemnifying Party or the Company. Further, for the sake of clarity, the limitations set forth in Section 7.4 shall not apply to Losses resulting from, arising out of, or based upon Sections 7.2(b), (c), (d), (f), (g) or (h). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary (including the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.4(d)), (i) in no event shall any Company Unitholder have an obligation to indemnify any Parent Indemnitee with respect to a Loss in an amount greater than the Company Unitholder’s Pro Rata Share of such Loss and (ii) in no event shall any Company Unitholder have aggregate liability to the Indemnified Parties in excess of the Merger Consideration actually received by such Company Unitholder.

(e) The amount of any Losses incurred by Parent Indemnitees or Unitholder Indemnitees, as applicable, will be reduced by the net amount such Person, as applicable, actually recovers from any insurer or other party liable for such Losses, net of the costs and expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party in seeking such recoveries, in each case which the Indemnified Party reasonably estimates to result from such recoveries (including, without limitation, anticipated increases in insurance premiums estimated in good faith), and will not be reduced for any tax benefits resulting therefrom. An Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to seek recovery, and to cause its Affiliates to seek recovery, from all insurance policies or other third-party agreements covering such Losses. For purposes of this Section 7.4(f) only, “commercially reasonable” means the Indemnified Party’s actions must be commercially reasonable taking into account all relevant considerations, including the risk of increased insurance premiums, the impact on insurance claim history, the risk of insurance non-renewal, other insurance policy risks and consequences and all other foreseeable consequences related to third parties, including foreseeable impacts on customer, vendor, distributor, supplier, strategic alliance, partner or other relationships.

(f) For purposes of determining whether a breach has occurred and calculating the amount of Losses in connection with a claim for indemnification under this Article VII, any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty (other than with respect to those representations and warranties contained in Sections 2.6, 2.8 and 2.9) shall be determined without regard to any materiality, Material Adverse Effect or other similar qualification contained in or otherwise applicable to such representation or warranty.

7.5 Indemnification Procedures for Third Party Claims against Parent Indemnitee.

(a) In the event that a Parent Indemnitee receives notice of the assertion of any claim or the commencement of any Action (other than a claim or Action relating to Taxes that are governed by Section 10.4) by a third party which Parent Indemnitee reasonably believes may give rise to a claim for recovery of Losses under the provisions of this Article VII (“Third Party Claim”), Parent (on behalf of Parent Indemnitee) shall notify the Unitholders’ Representative of such Third Party Claim (a “Notice of Claim”). Such Notice of Claim shall be given promptly after receipt by the Parent of notice of such Third Party Claim, shall be accompanied by reasonable supporting documentation submitted by such third-party (to the extent then in the possession of Parent) and shall describe in reasonable detail (to the extent known by Parent) the facts constituting the basis for such Third Party Claim and the amount of the claimed Losses, if then known, provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect any claim unless the Company Unitholders are materially prejudiced by such failure to provide notice. Parent Indemnitee shall have the right to defend, conduct and control the defense of the Third Party Claim (“Third Party Defense”) with counsel of its choice at the expense of the Indemnifying Party; provided, however, that the Unitholders’ Representative shall have the right, at its expense, to participate in (but not control) such Third Party Defense. Parent Indemnitee shall conduct the Third Party Defense actively and diligently, and Indemnifying Party will provide reasonable cooperation in the Third Party Defense. Parent Indemnitee shall have the right to consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim in any manner and on such terms as it may deem appropriate; provided, however, that other than with respect to Actions (including one Action or a series of related Actions) involving Losses less than $25,000 in the aggregate, Parent Indemnitee shall not agree to any settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any such Action without the prior written consent of the Unitholders’ Representative, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(b) Each party to this Agreement shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate and to cause its employees to cooperate with and assist Parent Indemnitee or the Unitholders’ Representative, as the case may be, in connection with any Third Party Defense, including attending conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals and furnishing records, information and testimony, as may reasonably be requested; provided that each party shall use its reasonable best efforts, in respect of any Third Party Claim of which it has assumed the defense, to preserve the confidentiality of all confidential information of the other party and the attorney-client and work-product privileges of the party controlling the Third Party Defense.

7.6 Indemnification Procedures for Non-Third Party Claims. In the event of a claim that does not involve a Third Party Claim (other than a claim relating to Taxes that are governed by Section 10.4) being asserted against it, the Indemnified Party shall send a Notice of Claim (a) if the Indemnified Party is a Parent Indemnitee, to Unitholders’ Representative or (ii) if the Indemnified Party is a Unitholder Indemnitee, to Parent. The Notice of Claim shall set forth the amount, if known, or, if not known, an estimate of the foreseeable maximum amount of claimed Losses (which estimate shall not be conclusive of the final amount of such Losses) and a description of the basis for such claim. The Indemnifying Party will have thirty (30) days from receipt of such Notice of Claim to dispute the claim. If the Indemnifying Party does not give notice to the Indemnified Party that it disputes such claim within thirty (30) calendar days after its receipt of the Notice of Claim, the claim specified in such Notice of Claim will be conclusively deemed a Loss subject to indemnification hereunder.

7.7 Escrow Fund.

(a) As set forth in Section 1.10(a), concurrently with the Closing:

(i) Parent shall deposit with the Escrow Agent for a period of 18 months (the “Escrow Release Date”) (or, with respect to the matters and amounts specified in Section 7.2(e) and Section 7.2(h) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, for the time periods specified therein), shares of Parent Preferred Stock with an aggregate initial liquidation preference equal to $9,050,000, subject to reduction as provided in Section 7.7(a)(i) of the Company Disclosure Schedule (the “Indemnity Escrow Amount” and, together with any distributions or earnings thereon, the “Indemnity Escrow Fund”), which escrow shall be invested, held and disbursed by the Escrow Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement and shall serve as security to Parent for the Company’s representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement;

(ii) Parent shall deposit with the Escrow Agent for a period of 18 months (the “Consents Survival Period”), shares of Parent Preferred Stock with an aggregate initial liquidation preference equal to $3,500,000 (the “Consents Escrow Amount” and, together with any distributions or earnings thereon, the “Consents Escrow Fund”) which escrow shall be invested, held and disbursed by the Escrow Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (including Section 7.7(a)(ii) of the Company Disclosure Schedules) and the Escrow Agreement.

(b) Parent may make a claim against the Indemnity Escrow Fund for the amount of any indemnifiable Losses by sending a Notice of Claim pursuant to Section 7.5 or 7.6 to the Escrow Agent and the Unitholders’ Representative. With respect to Losses pursuant to Section 7.2(a) (other than any such Losses arising or resulting from a breach of a Fundamental Representation) or Section 7.2(e), Parent Indemnitees’ sole source of recovery shall be against the Indemnity Escrow Amount, and Parent Indemnitees shall have no right to seek recovery against the Company Unitholders. In the event that Parent Indemnitees are permitted to seek recovery against Company Unitholders in accordance with this Section 7.7(b), Parent Indemnitees shall first seek recourse against (i) the Indemnity Escrow Fund, and (ii) to the extent that the Indemnity Escrow Fund is unavailable or depleted, against the Company Unitholders (severally in accordance with their Pro Rata Share) in accordance with, and subject to the limitations contained in, this Article VII. If (i) Parent obtains recovery or recoveries against the Company Unitholders from the Indemnity Escrow Fund for a breach of a Fundamental Representation or pursuant to Sections 7.2(b), (c), (d), (f), (g) or (h) and (ii) as a result, the Indemnity Escrow Fund is insufficient to satisfy indemnifiable Losses pursuant to Section 7.2(a) or Section 7.2(e), each Company Unitholder shall agree to replenish the Indemnity Escrow Fund with an amount equal to the amount disbursed therefrom pursuant to clause (i) of this sentence on a dollar-for-dollar basis up to each Company Unitholder’s Pro Rata Share of the amount disbursed from such Indemnity Escrow Fund pursuant to clause (i) of this sentence; provided, however, that the Company Unitholders shall have no obligation to replenish the Indemnity Escrow Fund with respect to aggregate Losses arising under Section 7.2(a) in excess of the Cap (or with respect to aggregate Losses arising under Section 7.2(e) in excess of the applicable cap provided therefor). In satisfaction of any claims under this Article VII (including any amounts to be replenished pursuant to the preceding sentence), Company Unitholders shall be permitted to deliver, at their sole option, either cash, shares of Parent Common Stock, Parent Preferred Stock or Parent Warrants. In the event that a Company Unitholder desires to deliver securities in satisfaction of any claims under this Article VII, such Company Unitholder shall deliver such securities in the following order of priority: (i) shares of Parent Common Stock then held by such Company Unitholder or shares of Parent Preferred Stock then held by such Company Unitholder and (ii) Parent Warrants then held by such Company Unitholder. For purposes of this Section 7.7(b), shares of Parent Common Stock shall be valued at the 10-day volume weighted average price, shares of Parent Preferred Stock shall be valued at the applicable liquidation preference, and shares of Parent Warrants shall be valued using the Black-Scholes model or another well-accepted option-pricing model.

(c) Subject to any claims made in accordance with Article VII hereof, and pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, the remaining undistributed balance of the Indemnity Escrow Fund and/or the Consents Escrow Fund, if any, shall be released by the Escrow Agent to the Company Unitholders in accordance with the directions of the Unitholders’ Representative.

(d) Subject to amounts required to be retained by the Escrow Agent in accordance with Section 7.2(e) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, in the event that Parent has not delivered a Notice of Claim to the Escrow Agent and the Unitholders’ Representative prior to the Escrow Release Date, the Indemnity Escrow Amount (plus any distributions or earnings thereon that have not previously been released to the Company Unitholders) minus the sum of (a) any Losses finally determined to be payable to the Parent Indemnitees and (b) any Losses claimed pursuant to Notices of Claim for Losses that have not yet been finally resolved in accordance with this Agreement, shall be released to the Company Unitholders in accordance with the directions of the Unitholders’ Representative, and Parent and the Unitholders’ Representative shall execute and deliver to the Escrow Agent a joint written instruction to release such amount.

7.8 Contingent Claims. Nothing herein shall be deemed to prevent an Indemnified Party from making a claim hereunder for potential or contingent claims or demands; provided that the Notice of Claim sets forth the specific basis for any such contingent claim to the extent then feasible and the Indemnified Party has reasonable grounds to believe that such a claim may be made.

7.9 Effect of Investigation; Waiver

(a) An Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification or other remedies based upon the representations and warranties and covenants and agreements of the Indemnifying Party will not be affected by any investigation or knowledge of the Indemnified Party or any waiver by the Indemnified Party of any condition based on the accuracy of any representation or warranty, or compliance with any covenant or agreement. Such representations and warranties and covenants and agreements shall not be affected or deemed waived by reason of the fact that the Indemnified Party knew or should have known that any representation or warranty might be inaccurate or that the Indemnifying Party failed to comply with any agreement or covenant. Any investigation by such party shall be for its own protection only and shall not affect or impair any right or remedy hereunder.

(b) Each Company Unitholder acknowledges and agrees that, upon and following the Closing, the Company shall not have any liability or obligation to indemnify, save or hold harmless or otherwise pay, reimburse or make any Company Unitholder whole for or on account of any indemnification or other claims made by any Parent Indemnitee hereunder. Each Company Unitholder shall have no right of contribution against the Company with respect to any such indemnification or other claim described in the preceding sentence.

7.10 Exclusive Remedy. Parent and Merger Sub (on the one hand) and the Company and the Company Unitholders (on the other hand) acknowledge and agree that no representations or warranties have been made by the Company or the Company Unitholders (on the one hand) or Parent or Merger Sub (on the other hand) in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except for those made by any such Person expressly set forth herein or in any certificate, agreement or other instrument executed in connection with the Closing and expressly provided for herein. Except to the extent provided in this Article VII or in the case of actual fraud by the applicable Indemnifying Party, each of the Parties (and, in the case of Parent and Merger Sub, on behalf of the Surviving Entity) agree not to assert any claim that any of the other Parties or any other Person has made any false representation, warranty, or statement in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or omitted to make any statement necessary in order to make the representations, warranties and statements so made by any such party not misleading and agree to waive any right or remedy available by law in connection with the foregoing. Except with respect to Losses arising from actual fraud by the applicable Indemnifying Party, the indemnification provisions in this Article VII will be the exclusive remedy of the Parties following the Effective Time

7.11 Certain Indemnification Matters.

(a) Prevailing Party Indemnification. If any Action is brought to enforce or interpret the provisions of this Article VII in a court of competent jurisdiction that results in a final, non-appealable order, the prevailing party in such Action shall be entitled to reimbursement of its costs and expenses (including reasonable legal, consultant, accounting and other professional fees), which shall constitute Losses for which the prevailing party shall be entitled to indemnification hereunder.

(b) Late Payments. Any and all Losses hereunder shall bear interest from five (5) days following final determination that such indemnification is required to be paid under this Agreement (and the amount thereof) until the date finally paid by the Indemnifying Party at the rate of 5% per annum.

ARTICLE VIII
UNITHOLDERS’ REPRESENTATIVE

8.1 Unitholders’ Representative. By executing this Agreement, a Joinder Agreement or by accepting any consideration payable hereunder, each Company Unitholder shall have irrevocably authorized, appointed and empowered Mistral XH Representative, LLC (together with any subsequent or successor representative, the “Unitholders’ Representative”) to be the exclusive proxy, representative, agent and attorney-in-fact of each of the Company Unitholders, with full power of substitution, to make all decisions and determinations and to act and execute, deliver and receive all documents, instruments and consents on behalf of the Company Unitholders, at any time, in connection with, and that may be deemed by the Unitholders’ Representative to be necessary or appropriate to accomplish the intent and implement the provisions of, this Agreement, and to facilitate the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby. By executing this Agreement, the Unitholders’ Representative accepts such appointment, authority and power and authorization to act as Unitholders’ Representative as attorney-in-fact and agent on behalf of the Company Unitholders in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and any applicable ancillary documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Unitholders’ Representative shall have the power to take any of the following actions on behalf of the Company Unitholders: (i) to give and receive notices, communications and consents under this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement and the other documents, instruments and agreements contemplated hereby; (ii) to receive and facilitate distribution of payments pursuant to this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement (including any unused balance of the Indemnity Escrow Fund and/or the Consents Escrow Fund); (iii) to waive, modify or amend any provision of this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement or the other documents, instruments and agreements contemplated hereby; (iv) to assert any claim or institute any Action; (v) to investigate, defend, contest or litigate any Action initiated by any Person against the Unitholders’ Representative or a Company Unitholder under this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, as the Unitholders’ Representative, in its sole discretion, may deem necessary or desirable; (vi) [reserved]; (vii) to negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, resolve and comply with orders of courts and awards of arbitrators or other third party intermediaries with respect to any disputes arising under this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, as the Unitholders’ Representative, in its sole discretion, may deem necessary or desirable; (viii) to negotiate and enter into settlements with respect to any indemnification claims arising under this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, as the Unitholders’ Representative, in its sole discretion, may deem necessary or desirable; (ix) to agree to any offsets or other additions or subtractions of amounts to be paid under this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement as the Unitholders’ Representative, in its sole discretion, may deem necessary or desirable; (x) to make, execute, acknowledge and deliver all such other agreements, guarantees, orders, receipts, endorsements, notices, requests, instructions, certificates, assignments, letters and other writings, (xi) make, or assist Parent with making, any filings in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, (xii) to refrain from enforcing any right of the Company Unitholders arising out of or under or in any manner relating to this Agreement; provided, however, that no such failure to act on the part of the Unitholders’ Representative, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, shall be deemed a waiver of any such right or interest by the Unitholders’ Representative or by the Company Unitholders unless such waiver is in a writing signed by the waiving party or by the Unitholders’ Representative, and (xiii) engage, at the Company Unitholders’ expense, attorneys, accountants, financial and other advisors, paying agents and other persons necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Unitholders’ Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing or in connection with any matter arising under this Agreement, and, in general, to do any and all things and to take any and all action that the Unitholders’ Representative, in its sole and absolute discretion, may consider necessary or proper or convenient in connection with or to carry out the activities described in this Agreement. Unitholders’ Representative shall have the right to withhold any amounts otherwise payable to the Company Unitholders in accordance with this Agreement as it deems necessary or appropriate in order to cover costs, fees and expenses that it may reasonably incur in connection with discharging its duties hereunder.

8.2 Reliance. The appointment of the Unitholders’ Representative by each Company Unitholder is coupled with an interest and may not be revoked in whole or in part (including upon the death or incapacity of such Company Unitholder). Such appointment shall be binding upon the heirs, executors, administrators, estates, personal representatives, officers, managers, successors and assigns of each Company Unitholder. All decisions of the Unitholders’ Representative shall be final and binding on all of the Company Unitholders, and no Company Unitholder shall have the right to object, dissent, protest or otherwise contest the same. The Parent shall be entitled to rely upon, without independent investigation, any act, notice, instruction or communication from the Unitholders’ Representative and any document executed by the Unitholders’ Representative on behalf of any such Unitholders and shall be fully protected in connection with any action or inaction taken or omitted to be taken in reliance thereon absent willful misconduct. If the Unitholders’ Representative ceases to serve in such capacity, for any reason, such Person shall designate its successor. Failing such designation within ten (10) Business Days after the Unitholders’ Representative has ceased to serve, Company Unitholders entitled to receive, in the aggregate, a majority of the Merger Consideration, shall appoint a successor. Failing such designation within ten (10) Business Days after such successor has ceased to serve, the Parent shall appoint a successor (subject to replacement by the Company Unitholders at any time thereafter pursuant to the preceding sentence).

8.3 No Liability.

(a) Each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that the Unitholders’ Representative is a party to this Agreement solely to perform certain administrative functions in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby. Accordingly, each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that, other than in the Unitholders’ Representative’s role as a Company Unitholder (if applicable), the Unitholders’ Representative shall have no liability to, and shall not be liable for any Losses of, any of the Parties or to any other Person in connection with any obligations of the Unitholders’ Representative under this Agreement or otherwise in respect of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, except to the extent such Losses shall be proven to be the direct result of fraud by the Unitholders’ Representative in connection with the performance by the Unitholders’ Representative of its obligations hereunder.

(b) Parent shall not be responsible for any loss suffered by, or liability of any kind to, the Unitholders arising out of any act done or omitted by the Unitholders’ Representative in connection with the administration of the Unitholders’ Representative’s duties hereunder.

(c) The Unitholders’ Representative shall be entitled to receive reimbursement from, and be indemnified by, the Company Unitholders for certain expenses, charges and liabilities as provided in this Article VIII. In connection with this Agreement and the ancillary documents, and in exercising or failing to exercise all or any of the powers conferred upon the Unitholders’ Representative hereunder or thereunder, (i) the Unitholders’ Representative (and its Affiliates) shall incur no responsibility whatsoever to any Company Unitholder by reason of any error in judgment or other act or omission performed or omitted hereunder, and (ii) the Unitholders’ Representative shall be entitled to rely on the advice of counsel, public accountants or other independent experts experienced in the matter at issue, and any error in judgment or other act or omission of the Unitholders’ Representative pursuant to such advice shall in no event subject the Unitholders’ Representative (or any of its Affiliates) to liability to any Company Unitholder. Each Company Unitholder shall indemnify, severally in accordance with its Pro Rata Share and not jointly, the Unitholders’ Representative (and its Affiliates) against all Losses, including reasonable attorneys’, accountants’ and other experts’ fees and the amount of any judgment against them, of any nature whatsoever (including, but not limited to, any and all expense whatsoever reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, commenced or threatened or any claims whatsoever), arising out of or in connection with any claim, investigation, challenge, action or proceeding or in connection with any appeal thereof, relating to the acts or omissions of the Unitholders’ Representative hereunder. In the event of any indemnification hereunder, upon written notice from the Unitholders’ Representative to the Company Unitholders as to the existence of a deficiency toward the payment of any such indemnification amount, each Company Unitholder shall promptly deliver to the Unitholders’ Representative full payment of such Company Unitholder’s share of the amount of such deficiency in proportion to such Company Unitholder’s Pro Rata Share. All of the indemnities, immunities and powers granted to the Stockholders’ Representative under this Agreement shall survive the Effective Time and/or any termination of this Agreement.

(a) Except as set forth in this Section 9.3, all fees and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the Party incurring such fees and expenses, whether or not the Merger is consummated, provided, however, that if the Merger is consummated, Parent will assume such transaction costs of the Company in an amount not to exceed $500,000. Parent will pay all such transactions costs at the Closing to the extent that the Company provides Parent (A) with an estimate of the amount of such transaction costs at least thirty (30) days prior to the Closing and (B) with the amount of such transaction costs at least seven (7) Business Days prior to the Closing, in each case, with reasonable documentation of such transaction costs.

(b) In the event that (i) the Company terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(j) or Section 9.1(k), or (ii) Parent terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(f), then the Company shall pay to Parent, within three (3) Business Days of such termination, a fee in cash equal to $750,000 (the “Company Termination Fee”), plus an amount in cash equal to Parent’s reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in an amount not to exceed $500,000. Any amount to be paid pursuant to this Section 9.3(b) shall be payable by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account specified by Parent.

(c) In the event that (i) the Company terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(g), or (ii) the Company or Parent terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(d), then Parent shall, within three (3) Business Days of such termination, pay a fee in cash equal to $750,000 (the “Parent Termination Fee”) and an amount in cash equal to the Company’s reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in an amount not to exceed $500,000. Any amount to be paid pursuant to this Section 9.3(c) shall be payable by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account specified by the Company.

(d) In the event that (i) this Agreement is terminated by the Company pursuant to Section 9.1(b) and at or prior to the time of such termination, a Company Acquisition Proposal has either previously been publicly announced (or has become publicly known) or has been proposed or communicated to the Company and (ii) within six (6) months following the termination of this Agreement, (A) the Company enters into a definitive agreement with respect to such previously proposed, communicated, known or announced Company Acquisition Proposal or (B) such previously proposed, communicated, known or announced Company Acquisition Proposal is otherwise consummated, then, in any such case, Company shall pay to the Parent the Company Termination Fee, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated in writing by the Parent, within two (2) Business Days after the execution of such agreement or after such transaction is consummated, as applicable (provided that for purposes of this Section 9.3(d) each reference to “20%” in the definition of Company Acquisition Proposal shall be deemed to be a reference to “50%”).

(e) In the event that (i) this Agreement is terminated by Parent pursuant to Section 9.1(b) and (ii) within six (6) months following the termination of this Agreement, the Company consummates a transaction for the (A) issuance, sale or other disposition of (including by way of merger, consolidation, business combination, equity exchange, recapitalization, joint venture, partnership or any similar transaction) securities (or options, rights or warrants to purchase, or securities convertible into or exchangeable for, such securities) representing 50% or more of the voting power or economic interests of Company or any Subsidiary (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any issuance of equity securities of Company but excluding the sale, transfer, acquisition or disposition of not more than 50% or more of the voting power or economic interests of any Subsidiary to an ACDBE partner), (B) any direct or indirect sale, transfer, acquisition or disposition of more than 50% of the consolidated assets of Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole (measured by the fair market value thereof), including by way of purchase of stock, limited liability interests or other equity interests of the Subsidiaries or (C) any merger, consolidation, equity exchange, business combination, recapitalization, reorganization, liquidation, joint venture, dissolution or any similar transaction involving the Company or any Subsidiary (in each case in clause (C), that results in the equityholders of the Company beneficially owning less than 50% of the Company), the Company shall pay to the Parent the Company Termination Fee, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated in writing by the Parent, within two (2) Business Days after such transaction is consummated.

(f) Each of the Company and Parent acknowledges and agrees that the agreements contained in this Section 9.3 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that, without these agreements, neither the Company nor Parent would have entered into this Agreement; accordingly, if the Company or Parent fails promptly to pay the Parent Termination Fee or the Company Termination Fee when due pursuant to Section 9.3, and, in order to obtain such payment, either Parent or the Company, as applicable, commences an Action that results in an award against the Company or Parent, as applicable, for such fee, the Company or Parent, as applicable, shall pay the other Party its costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) in connection with such Action, together with interest on the amount of the applicable fee from the date such payment was required to be made until the date of payment at the prime lending rate as published in The Wall Street Journal in effect on the date such payment was required to be made. Under no circumstances shall any Party be required to pay more than one termination fee in respect of termination under this Section 9.3.

9.4 Amendment. This Agreement may be amended by the Parties by action taken by or on behalf of their respective boards of directors, at any time prior to the Effective Time subject to the applicable provisions of the Delaware LLC Act. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed by all of the Parties.

9.5 Waiver. At any time prior to the Effective Time, any Party may extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts required hereunder, waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto and waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions contained herein. Any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument signed by the Party to be bound thereby.

Tax matters

10.1 Filing Tax Returns.

(a) Unitholders’ Representative shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed all Tax Returns for the Company and its Subsidiaries that relate to all Taxable periods ending on or before the Closing Date (a “Pre-Closing Tax Return”). All such Tax Returns shall be prepared in a manner that is consistent with the prior practice of the Company and its Subsidiaries, as applicable, except to the extent otherwise required by law and/or as needed to reflect the impact of the Merger. At least 45 days prior to Unitholders’ Representative’s chosen filing date of any such Pre-Closing Tax Return (or, if such due date is within forty-five (45) days following the Closing Date, as promptly as practicable following the Closing Date), Unitholders’ Representative shall cause a draft copy of such Tax Return to be delivered to Parent for Parent’s review and comment (and shall specify the chosen filing date with respect to such Tax Return). Unitholders’ Representative shall consider in good faith any and all reasonable comments provided by Parent with respect to any such Tax Returns, provided, that, such reasonable comments are delivered in writing by Parent to Unitholders’ Representative no less than fifteen (15) days prior to Unitholders’ Representative’s chosen filing date for such Tax Returns (or, if the due date for the filing of such Tax Return is within forty-five (45) days following the Closing Date, as promptly as practicable following the receipt of the draft copy of such Tax Return), provided to the extent filed after the Closing Date, no such Pre-Closing Tax Return shall be filed without the Parent written approval (which approval shall not be unreasonable delayed, conditioned or withheld).

(b) Parent shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed all Tax Returns (“Straddle-Period Tax Return”) for the Company and its Subsidiary that relate to any period that includes but does not end on the Closing Date (a “Straddle Period”). At least forty-five (45) days prior to Parent’s chosen filing date of any such Straddle-Period Tax Return, Parent shall cause a draft copy of such Straddle-Period Tax Return to be delivered to the Unitholder’ Representative for the Unitholder’ Representative’s review and comment (and shall specify the chosen filing date with respect to such Tax Return). Parent shall consider in good faith any and all reasonable comments provided by the Unitholder’ Representative with respect to any such Straddle-Period Tax Returns, provided, that, such reasonable comments are delivered in writing by the Unitholder’ Representative to Parent no less than fifteen (15) days prior to Parent’s chosen filing date for such Tax Returns and no such Straddle-Period Tax Return shall be filed without the Unitholders’ Representative’s written approval (which approval shall not be unreasonable delayed, conditioned or withheld).

10.2 Straddle Period. In the case of any Straddle Period, the amount of any Taxes imposed on or calculated by reference to income, gain, receipts, capital, sales, use or payment of wages of the Company for the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be determined based on an interim closing of the books as of the close of business on the Closing Date (and for such purpose, the Taxable period of each of the Subsidiaries of the Company shall be deemed to terminate at such time) provided, however, that exemptions, allowances or deductions that are calculated on an annual basis, such as property Taxes and depreciation deductions, shall be apportioned between such two periods on a daily basis. The amount of all other Taxes of the Company and its Subsidiaries for a Straddle Period which relate to the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall 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 Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in such Straddle Period.

10.3 Tax Treatment of the Merger; Tax Allocation.

(a) The Parties agree that the Merger shall be treated for federal and applicable state and local income tax purposes as an acquisition by Parent of all of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, and as a sale by each of the Company Unitholders of its Company Units in accordance with Revenue Ruling 99-6, 1999-1 C.B. 432 (Situation 2) (the “Transaction Tax Treatment”).

(b) The Parties agree to allocate and report the total consideration payable (as determined for federal income tax purposes) under this Agreement to the Company Unitholders in a manner consistent by Sections 1060 and 751 of the Code and the corresponding Treasury Regulations (the “Tax Allocation”). Parent shall deliver a draft of the Tax Allocation to Unitholders’ Representative within 90 days following the Closing for Unitholders’ Representative’s review and comment and shall consider in good faith any reasonable comments delivered in writing by the Unitholder Representative to Parent within thirty (30) days (or if no such written comments are timely delivered to the Parent, the draft Tax Allocation shall be deemed final). Unitholders’ Representative and Parent agree to discuss any written proposed changes timely suggested by the Unitholders’ Representative to the Tax Allocation and shall endeavor to resolve in good faith any disputes concerning the Tax Allocation raised in connection with such timely submitted comments. If Parent and the Unitholders’ Representative are unable to agree on the Tax Allocation, such dispute shall be submitted for resolution by an independent, national accounting firm reasonably acceptable to both Parent and Unitholders’ Representative (the “Independent Accountant”) whose determination with respect to the Tax Allocation shall be binding on the Parties. All fees and expenses of such Independent Accountant in making such determination shall be shared 50% by Parent, on the one hand, and 50% by the Company Unitholders (on a several and not joint basis). The Parties agree that if necessary, the Tax Allocation (and corresponding Tax forms) shall be amended to reflect adjustments to the considerations paid pursuant to this Agreement (as determined for federal income tax purposes).

(c) The Parties shall (and shall cause their respective Affiliates to) file their Tax Returns and pay Taxes in a manner consistent with the Transaction Tax Treatment and the Tax Allocation unless otherwise required by law.

(d) The Parties intend to treat the Parent Preferred Stock (according to their terms as of the date hereof) as not constituting “preferred stock” for purposes of Code Section 305 and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, unless otherwise required by law.

10.4 Tax Proceedings.

(a) If any Governmental Authority issues to the Parent (i) a written notice of its intent to audit or conduct a Tax proceeding with respect to a Tax Return or Taxes of the Company or its Subsidiaries for any Tax period ending on or before the Closing Date (a “Pre-Closing Tax Period”) or Straddle Period or (ii) a notice of deficiency for Taxes for any Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period, Parent shall promptly notify the Unitholders’ Representative of its receipt of such communication from the Governmental Authority, provided that the failure to notify the Unitholder’s Representative will not relieve the Company Unitholders of any liability that it may have to Parent Indemnitees, except and only to the extent that any Company Unitholder is actually prejudiced thereby.

(b) The Unitholders’ Representative may elect to assume and control the defense of any Tax proceeding relating solely to any Pre-Closing Tax Period of the Company, by providing written notice to Parent within twenty (20) days after delivery by Parent to the Unitholders’ Representative of written notice of such Tax proceeding. If the Unitholders’ Representative elects to assume and control the defense of such Tax proceeding: (i) the Company Unitholders shall bear the costs and expenses of the Unitholders’ Representative arising from such Tax proceeding; (ii) the Unitholders’ Representative shall be entitled to engage counsel reasonably acceptable to Parent; (iii) it will be conclusively established for purposes of this Agreement that the claims made in such Tax proceeding are within the scope of and subject to indemnification, and (iv) the Unitholders’ Representative shall determine and control the preparation, prosecution, defense, settlement, disposition and conduct of such Tax proceeding, provided, however, that the Unitholder’s Representative shall not settle or compromise (or take other actions described herein with respect to) any Tax Proceeding without the prior written consent of Parent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned). If the Unitholders’ Representative elects to assume the defense of any Tax proceeding, the Unitholders’ Representative shall: (x) keep Parent reasonably informed of all material developments and events relating to such Tax proceeding and (y) provide such cooperation and information as Parent shall reasonably request, and Parent shall have the right, at its expense, to participate in (but not control) the defense of such Tax proceeding (including participating in any discussions with the applicable Tax authorities regarding such Tax contests).

(c) In connection with any Tax proceeding: (A) relating to any Straddle Period, (B) relating to a Pre-Closing Tax Period that the Unitholders’ Representative does not timely elect to control pursuant to Section 10.4(b), or (C) not relating solely to a Pre-Closing Tax Period, Parent shall determine and control the preparation, prosecution, defense, settlement, disposition and conduct of such Tax proceeding; provided, however, that Parent shall not, and shall not allow the Company to settle, resolve, or abandon such Tax proceeding without the prior written consent of the Unitholders’ Representative (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

10.5 Cooperation on Tax Matters. Each Party hereto shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other Party, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns (including signing any such Tax Returns) and any Tax proceeding. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other Party’s request) the provision of records and information which are reasonably relevant to any such Tax Returns or Tax proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. The Parties agree to (i) retain all books and records with respect to Pre-Closing Tax Periods until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations and abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any Tax authority with respect to all Pre-Closing Tax Periods, and (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to give the other Party reasonable written notice prior to destroying or discarding any such books and records and, if the other Party so requests, Parent shall cause the Company to retain such records for such additional period of time as reasonably requested by such Party. Parent and Unitholders’ Representative, on behalf of the Unitholders, further agree, upon request, to use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any Governmental Authority or any other Person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce, or eliminate any Tax that could be imposed (including, but not limited to, with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby).

10.6 Transfer Taxes. All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration, and other such Taxes, and all conveyance fees, recording charges, and other fees and charges (including any penalties and interest) (“Transfer Taxes”) incurred in connection with consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be paid fifty percent (50%) by Parent and fifty percent (50%) by the Company Unitholders (on a several and not joint basis). The Unitholders’ Representative will file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all such Transfer Taxes (except to the extent such Tax Returns and other documentation are required by law to be filed by the Parent), and, if required by applicable legal requirements, the Company and the Parent will join in the execution of any such Tax Returns and other documentation. The Parties agree to cooperate with each other in the filing of any such Tax Returns, including promptly supplying any information in their possession that is reasonably necessary to complete such Tax Returns, and shall use their respective commercially reasonable efforts (including providing any exemption certificates) to minimize or avoid the incurrence of any Transfer Taxes.

10.7 Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments. Except to the extent otherwise required by applicable law, the Parties agree to treat for federal and applicable state and local income Tax purposes, any and all indemnification payments made (or deemed made) pursuant to this Agreement as an adjustment of the consideration payable to the Company Unitholders.

10.8 Tax Sharing Agreements. Any and all Tax allocation agreements, Tax indemnity agreements and Tax sharing agreements binding the Company in any Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be terminated immediately prior to the Effective Time and, from and after the Effective Time, the Company shall not be bound thereby or have any liability or obligations thereunder.

11.2 Interpretation. When a reference is made in this Agreement to Sections, subsections, Schedules or Exhibits, such reference shall be to a Section, subsection, Schedule or Exhibit to this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. The words “include,” “includes” and “including” when used herein shall be deemed in each case to be followed by the words “without limitation.” The word “herein” and similar references mean, except where a specific Section or Article reference is expressly indicated, the entire Agreement rather than any specific Section or Article. The table of contents and the headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

11.3 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law, or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the extent possible.

11.4 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including all exhibits and schedules hereto and thereto), any non-disclosure or other agreement pertaining to the treatment of confidential information by and between the parties hereto (or any of them), and any other documents and instruments delivered in connection herewith constitute the entire agreement and supersede all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.

11.5 Assignment. This Agreement shall not be assigned by operation of law or otherwise, except that Parent and Merger Sub may assign all or any of their rights hereunder to any Affiliate, provided that no such assignment shall relieve Parent or Merger Sub, as the case may be, of its obligations hereunder.

11.6 Parties in Interest. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each Party hereto, and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement; provided, however, that the provisions of Article I are intended for the benefit of each of the individuals specified therein and their successors and assigns.

11.7 Failure or Indulgence Not Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of any Party in the exercise of any right hereunder will impair such right or be construed to be a waiver of, or acquiescence in, any breach of any representation, warranty or agreement herein, nor will any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right. All rights and remedies existing under this Agreement are cumulative to, and not exclusive to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available.

11.8 Governing Law; Enforcement.

(a) This Agreement and the rights and duties of the Parties hereunder shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of Delaware.

It is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement and the Joinder Agreements in the state courts in the State of New York, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled to under Section 9.3.
