F. Merger Sub II has authorized and approved, in accordance with its limited liability company agreement and the DLLCA, the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Merger Sub II and approved the Subsequent Merger subject to the required member vote to adopt this Agreement and approve the consummation of the Subsequent Merger;

G. The Parties intend that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Mergers, taken together, will qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code (the “Intended Tax Treatment”), and that this Agreement be, and is hereby adopted as, a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Sections 1.368-2(g) and 1.368-3;

H. Concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, as a condition and inducement to the willingness of Parent and Merger Sub I and Merger Sub II to enter into this Agreement, (a) each of the directors and executive officers of the Company and certain other Company Stockholders have entered into a Support Agreement with Parent and the Company in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B-2 (and collectively with the Company stockholder written consent appended thereto (the “Company Stockholder Written Consent”) and in the form attached to this Agreement as Exhibit B-1 (the “Support Agreements”), which support agreements include an agreement from the holders of Company Preferred Stock (including any Company Preferred Stock issuable upon exercise of convertible securities) who are affiliated with Parent or Xxxxxx Xxxxx to convert their Company Preferred Stock to Company Common Stock automatically upon a conversion to Company Common Stock of all other Company Preferred Stock in the limited circumstance specified therein and (b) each of those stockholders of the Company and the Parent listed on Schedule I hereto has entered into a lock-up agreement providing for post-Closing restrictions on the ability of such individuals with respect to the transfer of shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued to them pursuant to this Agreement and/ or otherwise owned, as applicable, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (collectively, the “Lock-Up Agreements”); and

I. Concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, as a condition and inducement to the willingness of the Company to enter into this Agreement, Xxxxxx Xxxxx shall have entered into a Voting Agreement with the Company in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B-3 (the “Voting Agreement”).

AGREEMENT

In consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:

1. TRANSACTION

1.1 The Mergers.

(a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Effective Time, Merger Sub I shall be merged with and into the Company and the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub I shall thereupon cease. The Company shall be the surviving corporation in the Merger (sometimes hereinafter referred to as the “Initial Surviving Corporation”) and, after the Merger, shall be a direct wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent and the separate corporate existence of the Company, with all of its rights, privileges, immunities, powers, franchises and authority, shall continue unaffected by the Merger, except as set forth in Section 1.2 (Effect of the Mergers). The Merger shall have the effects specified in the DGCL.

(b) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Subsequent Merger Effective Time, the Initial Surviving Corporation shall be merged with and into Merger Sub II and the separate corporate existence of the Initial Surviving Corporation shall thereupon cease. Merger Sub II shall be the surviving entity in the Subsequent Merger (sometimes hereinafter referred to as the “Surviving Company”) and, after the Subsequent Merger, shall continue to be an direct wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent and the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub II, with all of its rights, privileges, immunities, powers, franchises and authority, shall continue unaffected by the Subsequent Merger, except as set forth in Section 1.2 (Effect of the Mergers). The Subsequent Merger shall have the effects specified in the DGCL and the DLLCA.

1.2 Effect of the Mergers. The Mergers shall have the effects set forth in this Agreement and in the applicable provisions of the DGCL and the DLLCA. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, (a) at the Effective Time, except as otherwise agreed pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, all of the property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Company and Merger Sub I shall vest in the Initial Surviving Corporation, and all debts, liabilities and duties of the Company and Merger Sub I shall become the debts, liabilities and duties of the Initial Surviving Corporation, and (b) at the Subsequent Merger Effective Time, except as otherwise agreed pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, all of the property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Initial Surviving Corporation and Merger Sub II shall vest in the Surviving Company, and all debts, liabilities and duties of the Initial Surviving Corporation and Merger Sub II shall become the debts, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Company.

1.3 Closing; Effective Time. The Parties shall cause the Merger to be consummated at a closing (the “Closing”) to take place by means of a virtual closing through electronic exchange of signatures at 9:00 a.m., Eastern time, on a date to be mutually designated by the Company and Parent, which shall be no later than the second Business Day after the satisfaction or waiver of the last to be satisfied or waived of the conditions set forth in Sections 6 (Conditions Precedent to the Obligations of Each Party), 7 (Conditions Precedent to Obligations of Parent and Merger Sub) and 8 (Conditions Precedent to Obligations of Company) (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions). The date on which the Closing actually occurs in accordance with this Agreement is referred to herein as the “Closing Date.” Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, on the Closing Date, Merger Sub I and the Company shall file with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware a certificate of merger relating to the Merger (the “Certificate of Merger”) executed in accordance with the relevant provisions of the DGCL, and the Parties shall make all other filings or recordings required under the DGCL in connection with the Merger. The Merger shall become effective upon the date and time of the filing of such Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, or at such later time as is permissible under the DGCL and as may be mutually agreed in writing by the Company and Parent and specified in the Certificate of Merger for the Merger (the “Effective Time”). Immediately following the Effective Time, the Initial Surviving Corporation and Merger Sub II shall file with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware a certificate of merger relating to the Subsequent Merger (the “Certificate of Merger for Subsequent Merger”) executed in accordance with the relevant provisions of the DGCL and the DLLCA, and the Parties shall make all other filings or recordings required under the DGCL and the DLLCA in connection with the Subsequent Merger. The Subsequent Merger shall become effective at the time when the Certificate of Merger for Subsequent Merger has been duly filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware or at such later time as is permissible under the DGCL and the DLLCA and as may be agreed by the Parties in writing and specified in the Certificate of Merger for the Subsequent Merger (the “Subsequent Merger Effective Time”).

1.4 Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws; Directors and Officers.

(a) At the Effective Time, the certificate of incorporation of the Initial Surviving Corporation shall be amended and restated in its entirety to be the certificate of incorporation of Merger Sub I as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time. At the Subsequent Merger Effective Time, the certificate of formation and the limited liability company agreement of Merger Sub II shall be amended and restated in their entirety to be the certificate of formation and limited liability company agreement of the Surviving Company as in effect immediately prior to the Subsequent Merger Effective Time.

(b) The bylaws of the Initial Surviving Corporation shall be amended and restated immediately in their entirety as of the Effective Time to conform to the bylaws of Merger Sub I as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time. Immediately after the Subsequent Merger Effective Time, the certificate of formation and limited liability company agreement of Merger Sub II shall be the certificate of formation and limited liability company agreement of the Surviving Company as in effect immediately prior to the Subsequent Merger Effective Time.

(c) The directors and officers of the Initial Surviving Corporation immediately after the Effective Time and the managers and officers of the Surviving Company immediately after the Subsequent Merger Effective Time shall be the respective individuals set forth on Schedule II, until his or her successor has been duly elected or appointed and qualified or until his or her earlier death, resignation or removal pursuant to the applicable certificate of incorporation, bylaws, limited liability company agreement and applicable Law. Parent may amend Schedule II to the extent any person named thereon shall become unavailable to serve in the capacity set forth therein.

1.5 Conversion of Shares. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any further action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub I, Merger Sub II, the Company or any stockholder of the Company:

(a) any shares of Company Capital Stock then held by the Company (or held in the Company’s treasury) immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor;

(b) any shares of Company Capital Stock then held by Parent, Merger Sub I, Merger Sub II or any other Subsidiary of Parent immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor; provided that with respect to Subsidiaries of Parent that are not wholly owned such cancellation shall be with respect to the portion of the Company Capital Stock that Parent would own if the Subsidiary were dissolved and the Company Capital Stock was distributed to the owners of the Subsidiary;

(c) except as provided in Section 1.5(a) and Section 1.5(b) of this Section 1.5 (Conversion of Shares) and subject to Section 1.9 (Exchange/Payment), each share of Company Capital Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to exist, and shall be converted, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holders thereof, into the right to receive, without interest, the applicable Per Share Merger Consideration; and

(d) each share of the common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of Merger Sub I issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into one share of validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable common stock of the Initial Surviving Corporation and each stock certificate of Merger Sub I evidencing ownership of any such shares shall thereupon evidence ownership only of such shares of capital stock of the Initial Surviving Corporation; and at the Subsequent Merger Effective Time, by virtue of the Subsequent Merger and without any action on the part of the holder of any capital stock of the Initial Surviving Corporation or on the part of the sole member of Merger Sub II (i) each membership unit of Merger Sub II, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Subsequent Merger Effective Time, shall remain outstanding immediately following the Subsequent Merger Effective Time, and (ii) each share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Initial Surviving Corporation, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be cancelled for no consideration.

(e) No fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be issued in connection with the Merger, and no certificates or scrip for any such fractional shares shall be issued. Any holder of Company Common Stock who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock (after aggregating all fractional shares of Parent Common Stock issuable to such holder) shall, in lieu of such fraction of a share and upon surrender by such holder of a Letter of Transmittal in accordance with Section 1.9 (Exchange/Payment) and any accompanying documents as required therein, be paid in cash the dollar amount (rounded to the nearest whole cent), without interest, determined by multiplying such fraction by the Parent Trading Price.

(f) If, between the date of the Agreement and the Effective Time, the outstanding shares of Parent Common Stock shall have been changed into, or exchanged for, a different number of shares or a different class, by reason of any stock dividend, subdivision, reclassification, recapitalization, split, reverse-split, combination or exchange of shares or other like change (by merger, consolidation or otherwise), the number of Merger Shares and each applicable Per Share Merger Consideration ratio shall, to the extent necessary, be equitably adjusted to reflect such change to the extent necessary to provide the holders of Company Capital Stock, Company Options and Company Warrants with the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such stock dividend, subdivision, reclassification, recapitalization, split, reverse-split, combination or exchange of shares or other like change (by merger, consolidation or otherwise); provided, however, that nothing herein will be construed to permit the Company or Parent to take any action with respect to Company Capital Stock or Parent Common Stock, respectively, that is prohibited by the terms of this Agreement.

(g) No dividends or other distributions declared or made with respect to Parent Common Stock with a record date on or after the Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Company Stock Certificate or book-entry share with respect to the shares of Parent Common Stock that such holder has the right to receive in the Merger until such holder surrenders such Company Stock Certificate or book-entry share or provides an affidavit of loss or destruction in lieu thereof in accordance with Section 1.9 (Exchange/Payment) (at which time (or, if later, on the applicable payment date) such holder shall be entitled, subject to the effect of applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Laws, to receive all such dividends and distributions, without interest).

1.6 Treatment of Company Warrants, Company Options, Company Convertible Notes and Contingent Rights.

(a) All Company Warrants shall be terminated at the Effective Time as contemplated by and in accordance with Section 5.13 (The 56% Warrant) and the applicable Support Agreement; provided that the Company Series C Warrant, to the extent not exercised by its holder prior to the Effective Time, shall be exchanged for a commensurate warrant to purchase shares of Parent or otherwise be settled by Parent and the Common Warrant Option, to the extent not exercised by its holder prior to the Effective Time, shall be exchanged for a commensurate warrant to purchase shares of Parent or otherwise be settled by Parent.

(b) All holders of Company Options (“Converted Options”) held by employees or independent contractors of the Company as of immediately prior to the Closing Date shall, to the extent then unvested, vest in full immediately prior to the Closing Date. All holders of Converted Options (whether or not accelerated pursuant to the prior sentence) shall receive options to purchase shares of Parent Class B Common Stock as contemplated by this Section 1.6(b) (Treatment of Company Warrants, Company Options and the Company Convertible Notes); provided that the adjustments provided in this Section 1.6(b) with respect to any Company Options are intended to be effected in a manner that is consistent with Sections 424(a) and 409A of the Code (such replacement options, the “Parent Options”). The number of shares of Parent Class B Common Stock underlying the Parent Options shall be determined by multiplying (A) the number of shares of Company Common Stock that were subject to each such Converted Option held by such holder, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, by (B) the Per Common Share Merger Consideration ratio, and rounding the resulting number down to the nearest whole number of shares of Parent Class B Common Stock. The per share exercise price for the Parent Options shall be determined by dividing (x) the per share exercise price of such Converted Options held by such holder, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, by (y) the Per Common Share Merger Consideration ratio and rounding the resulting exercise price up to the nearest whole cent. Any other restriction on the exercise of the Converted Options (excluding any vesting restriction) shall continue in full force and effect in the corresponding Parent Options. Except as set forth in this Section 1.6(b) (Treatment of Company Warrants, Company Options and Company Convertible Notes), the terms of the Converted Options shall remain unchanged. Except as set forth in this Section 1.6(b) (Treatment of Company Warrants and Company Options and Company Convertible Notes), the terms of the Converted Options shall remain unchanged

(c) The Parties hereto intend that the Company Convertible Notes shall not be assumed or continued by Parent or the Company in connection with the Merger or the other transactions contemplated hereby. Immediately prior to the Effective Time, Parent and the Company shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause each Company Convertible Note to be cancelled and extinguished and converted into the applicable Note Conversion Shares, in accordance with the terms of that certain form of Convertible Note Cancellation Agreement attached as Exhibit B-4 hereto, to be executed and delivered by each Company Noteholder prior to the Closing.

(d) For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, upon satisfaction (or waiver) of the conditions precedent in Articles VI, VII and VIII, and as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, shares of Company Capital Stock shall be issued to the holders of the Contingent Rights (as reflected in the Closing Payment Schedule) in accordance with their respective terms. At the Effective Time, such shares of Company Capital Stock shall be converted in accordance with the terms of Section 1.5 (Conversion of Shares) into the Per Line of Credit Share Merger Consideration and Per Bonus Share Merger Consideration, as applicable, or, to the extent applicable pursuant to Sections 1.5(a) or 1.5(b), canceled and retired for no consideration.

1.7 Further Action. If, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement or to vest the Surviving Company with full right, title and possession of and to all rights and property of Merger Sub and the Company, the officers and directors of the Surviving Company and Parent shall take such action, so long as such action is not inconsistent with this Agreement.

1.8 Closing of the Company’s Transfer Books. At the Effective Time: (a) all shares of Company Capital Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and all holders of certificates representing shares of Company Capital Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to have any rights as Company Stockholders, and each certificate representing any such Company Capital Stock (a “Company Stock Certificate”) shall thereafter represent the right to receive the consideration referred to in Section 1.5 (Conversion of Shares), if any; and (b) the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed with respect to all shares of Company Capital Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. No further transfer of any such shares of Company Capital Stock shall be made on such stock transfer books after the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, a Company Stock Certificate, including any valid certificate representing any shares of Company Preferred Stock previously converted into shares of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, is presented to the Exchange Agent or to the Surviving Company or Parent, such Company Stock Certificate shall be canceled and shall be exchanged as provided in Section 1.9 (Exchange/Payment).

1.9 Exchange/Payment.

(a) Prior to the Closing Date, Parent shall select a reputable entity to act as exchange agent in the Merger (the “Exchange Agent”). No later than the Closing Date, Parent shall deposit with the Exchange Agent (i) certificates or evidence of book-entry shares representing the Parent Class B Common Stock issuable pursuant to Section 1.5 (Conversion of Shares) (provided that any evidence of book entry shares to be issued in respect of Company Restricted Stock (to the extent consistent with the terms of such shares of Company Restricted Stock) will be subject to trading restrictions and a substantial risk of forfeiture under the terms of the applicable restricted stock agreements) and (ii) cash sufficient to make payments in lieu of fractional shares in accordance with Section 1.5 (Conversion of Shares).

(b) Promptly after the Exchange Agent is retained by Parent (and in any event no more than three days following the Effective Time), the Exchange Agent shall mail to the holders of Company Capital Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time (including the former Company Noteholders after giving effect to cancellation and conversion of the Company Convertible Notes immediately prior to the Effective Time): (i) a letter of transmittal in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit D which includes a release in favor of the Company and Parent, confidentiality and other provisions on which the Company and Parent will rely (the “Letter of Transmittal”) and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of Company Stock Certificates or book-entry shares in exchange for the Parent Common Stock and cash amounts payable in accordance with Section 1.5 (Conversion of Shares). Upon surrender of a Company Stock Certificate and delivery of a completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal to the Exchange Agent for payment, (A) the holder of such Company Stock Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor the applicable Per Share Merger Consideration for each share evidenced by such Company Stock Certificate or book-entry shares determined pursuant to Section 1.5 (Conversion of Shares), within 10 Business Days of such surrender and delivery, and (B) the Company Stock Certificate or book-entry shares so surrendered shall be canceled. No holder of any Company Capital Stock or any instruments convertible into Company Capital Stock shall be entitled to receive any of the consideration in accordance with the preceding sentence without returning the completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal. If any Company Stock Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, Parent may, as a condition to the payment of the consideration hereunder, require the owner of such Company Stock Certificate to provide a reasonably appropriate affidavit to Parent (which may include an indemnity or bond in customary form).

(c) Neither Parent, the Surviving Company nor any of their respective Affiliates shall be liable to any holder or former holder of Company Capital Stock with respect to any shares properly delivered to any public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property Law or escheat Law.

(d) Each of Parent, the Company, the Exchange Agent, and their respective agents (each a “Withholding Agent”) will be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amount payable to any Person under this Agreement or any other documents associated with the transaction, the amounts such Withholding Agent is required to deduct and withhold under the Code or any other applicable Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and paid over to the applicable Governmental Body, such withheld amounts will be treated as having been paid to the applicable Person in respect of whom such amounts were withheld.

5.8 Company Options.

(a) Prior to the Closing, the Company shall take all actions (including providing any required notices, obtaining any necessary determinations and/or obtaining resolutions of the Company Board or a committee thereof) that may be necessary (under the Company Equity Plan and award agreements pursuant to which Company Options are outstanding or otherwise) to cause the treatment (as applicable) of each Company Option then outstanding as set forth in Section 1.6 (Treatment of Company Warrants, Company Options and Company Convertible Notes).

(b) All Continuing Employees shall be eligible to continue to participate in the Surviving Company’s health and welfare benefit plans (to the same extent such Continuing Employees were eligible to participate under the Company’s health and welfare benefit plans immediately prior to the Effective Time); provided, however, that (i) nothing in this Section 5.10 (Employee Benefits) or elsewhere in this Agreement shall limit the right of Parent or the Surviving Company to amend or terminate any such health or welfare benefit plan or migrate the Continuing Employees to a successor health or welfare benefit plan at any time and (ii) if Parent or the Surviving Company terminates any such health or welfare benefit plan or migrates the Continuing Employees to a successor health or welfare benefit plan, then the Continuing Employees shall be eligible to participate in the Surviving Company’s health and welfare benefit plans for similarly situated employees to the extent that coverage under such plans is replacing comparable coverage under a Company Plan in which such Continuing Employee participated immediately before the Effective Time (each, a “New Plan”). To the extent that service is relevant for eligibility, vesting or allowances (including paid time off) under any such New Plan, then Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to (i) waive all limitations as to pre-existing conditions, exclusions and waiting periods with respect to participation and coverage requirements applicable to the Continuing Employees and their eligible dependents, to the extent that such conditions, exclusions and waiting periods would not apply under a similar employee benefit plan in which such employees participated immediately prior to the commencement of participation in such New Plan, and (ii) ensure that such health or welfare benefit plan shall, for purposes of eligibility, vesting, deductibles, co-payments and out-of-pocket maximums and allowances (including paid time off), credit Continuing Employees for service and amounts paid immediately prior to the commencement of participation in such New Plan to the same extent that such service and amounts paid were recognized prior to such commencement of participation under the corresponding health or welfare benefit plan of the Company.

(c) Nothing in this Section 5.10 (Employee Benefits) or elsewhere in this Agreement shall be construed to create a right in any employee to employment with Parent, the Surviving Company or any other Affiliate of the Surviving Company and the employment of each Continuing Employee shall be “at will” employment. The provisions of this Section 5.10 (Employee Benefits) are solely for the benefit of the Parties to this Agreement, and no provision of this Section 5.10 (Employee Benefits) is intended to, or shall, constitute the establishment or adoption of or an amendment to any employee benefit plan for purposes of ERISA or otherwise and no current or former employee or any other individual associated therewith shall be regarded for any purpose as a Third Party beneficiary of the Agreement or have the right to enforce the provisions hereof.

This Agreement may be executed by electronic transmission, each of which shall be deemed an original.

10.11 Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction.

In the event such court does not exercise the power granted to it in the prior sentence, the Parties hereto agree to replace such invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a valid and enforceable term or provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such invalid or unenforceable term.

10.12 Knowledge. “Knowledge” of the Company shall mean the knowledge of a fact or other matter, after reasonable inquiry, of the Knowledge Individuals.

(a) Each of the Parties hereto agrees that this Agreement is intended to be legally binding and specifically enforceable pursuant to its terms and that Parent and the Company would be irreparably harmed if any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms and that monetary damages would not provide adequate remedy in such event. Accordingly, in addition to any other remedy to which a Party may be entitled at Law, a Party shall be entitled to injunctive relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions hereof, in each case without posting a bond or undertaking, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at Law or in equity. Each of the Parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief when expressly available pursuant to the terms of this Agreement on the basis that the other Parties have an adequate remedy at Law or an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at Law or equity.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 10.13(a) or anything else to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company shall not be entitled to enforce specifically Parent’s and the Merger Subs’ obligations to consummate the Merger unless (i) all of the conditions set forth in Sections 6 and 7 (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing; provided that such conditions would have been satisfied or waived assuming the Closing were to occur) shall have been satisfied (or are capable of being satisfied at the Closing) or (to the extent permissible under applicable Law) waived; (ii) the Company has irrevocably confirmed in writing to Parent that (A) all of the conditions to the Company’s obligations have been satisfied or waived other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing; provided that such conditions would have been satisfied or waived assuming the Closing were to occur), and (B) if specific performance is granted, then it is ready, willing and able to take the actions within its control to cause the Closing to occur and (iii) Parent and Merger Sub I have failed to complete the Closing by the End Date.

No reference to or disclosure of any item or other matter in the Company Disclosure Schedule or Parent Disclosure Schedule, as applicable, shall be construed as an admission or indication that such item or other matter is material (nor shall it establish a standard of materiality for any purpose whatsoever) or that such item or other matter is required to be referred to or disclosed in the Company Disclosure Schedule or Parent Disclosure Schedule, as applicable. The information set forth in the Company Disclosure Schedule or Parent Disclosure Schedule, as applicable, is disclosed solely for the purposes of this Agreement, and no information set forth therein shall be deemed to be an admission by any party hereto to any Third Party of any matter whatsoever, including of any violation of Law or breach of any agreement.
