Section 2.13 Contingent Consideration.

Each Milestone Payment shall only be due once upon the occurrence of the applicable Milestone Event as indicated above. The Milestone Events may be achieved by the Surviving Company, Parent or a Sublicensee (or any Affiliate thereof). Following the Closing Date until achievement of all Milestone Events set forth above, Parent shall use its, and shall cause its Affiliates to use their respective, Commercially Reasonable Efforts to develop the first Product. Additionally, Parent shall refrain, and shall cause its Affiliates to refrain, from taking any action in bad faith or without any reasonable basis which is intended to prevent, or the primary effect of which is to prevent, the realization of the achievement of any of the Milestone Events set forth above. Parent shall keep the Holders’ Representative reasonably informed as to the progress and results of its and its Affiliates’ and sublicensees’ development activities. Without limiting the foregoing, upon request of the Holders’ Representative, Parent shall provide the Holders’ Representative with a written report on an annual basis (to be delivered within thirty (30) days after the end of each calendar year) summarizing the material Product development activities performed since the last such report with enough reasonable detail. Such reports shall include a reasonably-detailed summary of all data generated in connection with such development activities and summary reports of results of development activities. Parent shall promptly respond to the Holders’ Representative’s reasonable questions or requests for additional information relating to such development activities.

2.13.2 Payment of Milestone Payments.

(a) All Milestone Payments to be paid to the Holders, if any, shall be paid to the Holders in accordance with their respective proportional amount of ownership interest in the Company immediately prior to the Mergers.

(b) The Milestone Payments, if any, to be paid to the Holders shall be paid as follows:

(i) Notification and Payment of Milestone Event Earnout. Parent shall promptly notify the Holders’ Representative in writing after a Milestone Event has been achieved. Within 90 Business Days after notification by Parent to the Holders’ Representative of the realization of a Milestone Event, Parent shall pay or cause to be paid the corresponding Milestone Payment.

(ii) Equity Consideration. Each Milestone Payment to be paid by Parent under this Section 2.13 may be paid, at Parent’s sole discretion, in cash as set forth above and subject to compliance with Section 2.10.6, or in shares of Parent’s common stock (the “Milestone

Consideration Shares”); provided, however, that if at the time that any such Milestone Payment is due, Parent is no longer listed on Nasdaq or is not in material compliance with all applicable listing and corporate governance rules for Nasdaq, then such Milestone Payments shall be paid in cash. If Parent elects to deliver all or a portion of a Milestone Payment in the form of Milestone Consideration Shares (each such payment, a “Milestone Equity Consideration Payment”), the total number of Milestone Consideration Shares payable in connection with such Milestone Equity Consideration Payment will be equal to the number obtained by dividing (i) the respective Milestone Payment amount to be paid in Milestone Consideration Shares by (ii) the Average Parent Stock Price on the date two Business Days prior to the achievement of such Milestone Event.

(c) Limitations on Milestone Equity Consideration Payments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Parent may, in its sole discretion, make Milestone Payments in the form of Milestone Consideration Shares that are non-voting shares with equivalent economic value as the Parent Common Stock if and to the extent (but only to the extent) that the issuance of such shares as voting shares would exceed the aggregate number of voting shares of Parent Common Stock that Parent may issue without breaching Parent’s obligations under the rules or regulations of Nasdaq. Subject to compliance with Nasdaq rules and regulations and as soon as practicable, Parent shall use reasonable efforts to seek shareholder approval to permit the exchange, at the shareholder’s option, of each non-voting share issued pursuant to this Section 2.13.7(c) for a voting share of Parent Common Stock.

(d) Covenant against Manipulation. No Holder may, directly or indirectly, engage in any short-selling or other trading or market actions in bad faith without any reasonable basis which is intended to reduce, or the primary effect of which is to reduce the price of the Parent Common Stock during a period of determination of the Average Parent Stock Price for purposes of calculating the number of shares issuable as Milestone Consideration Shares.

Section 2.14 Closing Adjustments.

2.14.1 Post-Closing Statement. Within sixty (60) days following the Closing Date, Parent will deliver to the Holders’ Representative a statement (the “Post-Closing Statement”) containing Parent’s recalculation of the actual Closing Merger Consideration as of 11:59 p.m. on the day before the Closing (except with respect to Taxes, which shall be calculated as of close of business on the Effective Date) (the “Final Closing Merger Consideration”), setting forth, in reasonable detail, each of the adjustments made to Base Merger Consideration in such calculation, including, without limitation, Parent’s recalculation of Closing Working Capital (“Final Working Capital”) and the Working Capital Adjustment (the “Final Working Capital Adjustment”). The Post-Closing Statement and the related calculations and determinations will be prepared in good faith from the books and records of the Company and calculated in accordance with the Accounting Methodology. If Parent fails to deliver the Post-Closing Statement within such sixty (60) calendar day period, the Closing Statement shall be binding upon the parties and the Estimated Closing Merger Consideration, Estimated Closing Working Capital and the Estimated Working Capital Adjustment as determined in accordance therewith shall be Final Closing Merger Consideration, the Final Working Capital and the Final Working Capital Adjustment.

2.14.2 Cooperation. For purposes of complying with the terms set forth in this Section 2.14, each Party shall cooperate with and make available to the other Party and its representatives such information, records, data and working papers and shall permit reasonable access to its facilities and personnel during regular business hours, as may be reasonably required in connection with the preparation and analysis of the Post-Closing Statement and the resolution of any disputes under the Post-Closing Statement.

2.14.3 Disputes. Within thirty (30) days following receipt by the Holders’ Representative of the Post-Closing Statement, the Holders’ Representative shall deliver written notice to Parent of any dispute it has with respect to the Post-Closing Statement. If the Holders’ Representative does not so notify Parent of a dispute with respect to the Post-Closing Statement within such thirty (30) day period, the Post-Closing Statement will be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties. In the event the Holders’ Representative timely delivers notice of a dispute, Parent and the Holders’ Representative shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such dispute. If Parent and the Holders’ Representative, notwithstanding such good faith effort, fail to resolve such dispute within thirty (30) days after the Holders’ Representative advises Parent of its objections, then Parent and the Holders’ Representative jointly shall engage a nationally or regionally recognized public accounting firm that is mutually agreed upon by Parent and the Holders’ Representative (the “Accounting Firm”) to resolve the dispute as an expert and not an arbitrator. As promptly as practicable thereafter (and, in any event, within fifteen (15) days after the Accounting Firm’s engagement), each of the Holders’ Representative and Parent shall submit its position on any unresolved elements regarding Holders’ Representative objection, supported by any documents and arguments upon which it relies, to the Accounting Firm in writing (with a copy to the other submitting party). Parent and the Holders’ Representative shall request that the Accounting Firm render its determination within fifteen (15) days following its receipt of Parent’s response. The scope of the disputes to be resolved by the Accounting Firm is limited to the unresolved items to which the Holders’ Representative objected. In resolving any disputed item, the Accounting Firm may not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value claimed for such item by either Party or less than the smallest value claimed for such item by either Party. All determinations made by the Accounting Firm will be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties. The Holders’ Representative, on the one hand, and Parent, on the other hand, shall bear all fees and costs of the Accounting Firm based upon the percentage that the portion of the contested amount not awarded to such party bears to the actual amount contested by such Party.

2.14.4 Adjustment.

(a) If the Final Closing Merger Consideration determined pursuant to this Section 2.14 is less than the Estimated Closing Merger Consideration set forth in the Securities Payment Schedule (the amount of such difference, the “Excess Acquisition Shares”), then Parent shall cancel shares of Parent Common Stock equal in value to the Excess Acquisition Shares held by the Holders, on a pro rata basis in accordance with the Securities Payment Schedule. Such cancelled Excess Acquisition Shares will be deemed automatically forfeited by the Holders.

(b) If the Final Closing Merger Consideration is greater than the Estimated Closing Merger Consideration set forth in the Securities Payment Schedule (the amount of such difference, the “Acquisition Shares Shortfall”), then Parent shall issue to each Holder, on a pro rata basis in accordance with the Securities Payment Schedule, shares of Parent Common Stock equal in value to the Acquisition Shares Shortfall in accordance with Section 2.14.4(c). Parent shall issue such shares no later than three (3) Business Days after the determination of the Final Closing Merger Consideration.

(c) Any adjustments made pursuant to this Section 2.14 will be treated as an adjustment to the Total Merger Consideration to the extent permitted by applicable Law. For purposes of this Section 2.14, Parent Common Stock will have a deemed value equal to the Average Parent Stock Price as of the Closing Date.

Section 2.15 Right to Set-off. Subject to Section 8.3.8, Parent shall have the right to withhold, cancel and set off against any amount due to be paid pursuant to this Agreement (whether in cash or Parent Common Stock) the amount of any Losses to which any Parent Indemnified Persons may be entitled under Article VIII of this Agreement.

Section 5.8 Tax Matters. For purposes of this Section 5.8, all references to the Company include any Subsidiary of the Company or predecessor entity of the Company and such Subsidiary.

5.8.1 Post-Closing and Straddle Period Tax Returns.

(a) Parent shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed all Tax Returns of the Company that relate in whole or in part to a Pre-Closing Tax Period and that first become due after the Effective Date (such Tax Returns, “Parent Tax Returns”), including all Tax Returns for taxable periods including but not ending on the Effective Date (each such period being a “Straddle Period”), and Parent shall cause the Surviving Company to pay all Taxes with respect to such periods. Parent shall permit the Holders’ Representative a reasonable period of time, but not less than 15 days to review and comment, prior to filing, on each Parent Tax Return that reflects an item which could form the basis of a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Agreement. Parent and the Surviving Company shall incorporate all of the Holders’ Representative timely received reasonable comments with respect to any such item for which the Holders would bear liability and that are more likely than not to be upheld under applicable law.

(b) In the case of any Straddle Period, the amount of Taxes allocable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date shall be determined as follows: In the case of Taxes imposed on a periodic basis (such as real or personal property Taxes), the amount of such Taxes for the entire period (or, in the case of such Taxes determined on an arrears basis, the amount of such Taxes for the immediately preceding period) multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the Straddle Period ending on and including the Effective Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire relevant Straddle Period. In the case of Taxes not described in the previous sentence (such as franchise Taxes, Taxes that are based upon or related to income or receipts, based upon occupancy, or imposed in connection with any sale or other transfer or assignment of property (real or personal, tangible or intangible)), the amount of any such Taxes shall be determined as if such taxable period ended as of the close of business on the Effective Date.

(c) Parent and the Company will not (and will not permit their respective Affiliates to) (i) except for Tax Returns prepared and filed in accordance with Section 5.8.1, file or amend any Tax Returns of the Company (or otherwise initiate any voluntary disclosure with any Governmental Authority) with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period, (ii) with respect to Parent Tax Returns prepared

and filed in accordance with Section 5.8.1, after the date such Tax Returns are filed pursuant to Section 5.8.1, amend any such Parent Tax Return, (iii) make or change any Tax election or change any method of accounting for the Company that has retroactive effect to any Tax Return of the Company for a Pre-Closing Tax Period, or (iv) agree to extend or waive the statute of limitations with respect Taxes of the Company for a Pre-Closing Tax Period, in each such case except (A) with the prior written consent of the Holders’ Representative (which will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed, or conditioned), (B) if such action could not form the basis for a claim of indemnification pursuant to this Agreement, or (C) solely with respect to clauses (iii) and (iv), if required by applicable Law.

5.8.2 Tax Contests. If a claim is made by any Taxing Authority, that, if successful, might result in an indemnity payment to an Indemnified Person pursuant to Article VIII, then such Indemnified Person shall give notice to the Indemnifying Party in writing of such claim and of any counterclaim the Indemnified Person proposes to assert (a “Tax Claim”); provided, however, the failure to give such notice shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except to the extent the Indemnifying Party has been materially prejudiced as a result of such failure. With respect to any Tax Claim relating to a Pre-Closing Tax Period, the Holders’ Representative shall, solely at the Holders’ cost and expense, control all proceedings in connection with such Tax Claim (including selection of counsel); provided, however, that Holders’ Representative must first consult, in good faith with Parent before taking any action with respect to the conduct of such Tax Claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Holders’ Representative shall not settle such Tax Claim without the prior written consent of Parent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and Parent and counsel of its own choosing (at Parent’s cost) shall have the right to participate in all in-person meetings and written submissions made in connection with any such Tax Claim if such Tax Claim could have a material adverse impact on the Taxes of the Surviving Company in a taxable period or portion thereof beginning after the Closing Date. Parent shall control all proceedings with respect to any Tax Claim relating to a taxable period or portion thereof beginning after the Closing Date; provided, however, that the Holders’ Representative shall have the right to participate in all in-person meetings and written submissions made in connection with such a Tax Claim that involves any Straddle Period or Pre-Closing Tax Period, and Parent shall not settle such Tax Claim without the prior written consent of the Holders’ Representative, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the procedures for all Tax Claims shall be governed exclusively by this Section 5.8.2.

(a) the entirety of the Closing Merger Consideration and Milestone Payments payable to Stockholders under the Agreement shall be allocated to Company Capital Stock or imputed interest if and as required under the Code, as applicable, and none shall be treated as compensation;

(b) the rights of the Stockholders to Milestone Payments shall be treated as deferred contingent purchase price eligible for installment treatment under Section 453 of the Code and any corresponding provision of foreign, state or local Laws, as appropriate, subject to Sections 483 and 1274 of the Code and Treasury Regulations thereunder; and

(c) no party shall take any action or filing position inconsistent with the Tax treatment agreed to in this Section 5.8.3.

5.8.4 Certification. Parent and the Holders’ Representative agree, upon request from the other party, to use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any certificate or other document

from any Taxing 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 by this Agreement (including the Mergers)).

5.8.5 Tax Sharing Agreements. The Company shall terminate all Tax Sharing Agreements with respect to the Company as of the Closing Date and shall ensure that such agreements are of no further force or effect on and after the Closing Date and that there shall be no further liabilities or obligations imposed on the Company under any such agreements.

For the avoidance of doubt, the cooperation noted in this Section 5.8.6 shall include signing any Tax Returns, amended Tax Returns, claims or other documents with respect to any Tax controversy or proceeding, with respect to Taxes, the retention and (upon the other Party’s request) the provision of records and information which are reasonably relevant to any such audit, litigation or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder.

5.8.7 No Section 338 Tax Election. Neither Parent nor its Affiliates shall make a Tax election pursuant to Section 338 or Section 336(e) of the Code or any similar election under state, local or foreign Tax Law with respect to the Company in connection with the Mergers.

Any such cessation or termination may only be undertaken (i) in accordance with the governing documents and Contracts for the Company Plans (including through plan amendment) and (ii) if such cessation or termination conforms with applicable Laws.

5.10.3 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Section 5.10 is not intended to amend any benefit plans or arrangements of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, to limit the ability of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries to amend, modify or terminate any of such benefit plans or arrangements or to confer third-party beneficiary rights on any Person who is not a Party to this Agreement.

Section 5.11 Restrictive Covenant Agreements. On the date hereof, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each of the Holders listed on Schedule 5.12 (each, a “Restricted Person”) to execute and deliver to Parent a Restrictive Covenant Agreement.

such Parent Indemnified Person, whether or not involving a Third Party Claim, caused by, in connection with, as a result of or arising out of:

(a) any breach of, or misrepresentation or inaccuracy (or any Third Party Claim alleging facts that, if true, would be a breach of, misrepresentation or inaccuracy) in any of the representations or warranties made by the Company in this Agreement or in any other Transaction Agreement to which it is a party, including in any certificate delivered by or on behalf of the Company pursuant hereto, without giving effect to any qualifications as to materiality, Material Adverse Effect, substantial compliance or similar qualifications contained in such representations and warranties;

8.2.2 Indemnification by the Parent. Subject to the terms, conditions and limitations of this ARTICLE VIII, the Parent shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Holder Indemnified Persons from and against any and all Losses suffered, sustained or incurred by such Holder Indemnified Person, whether or not involving a Third Party Claim, claims between the Parties, or otherwise relating to, as a result of, arising out of, or by virtue of:

(a) any breach of, or misrepresentation or inaccuracy in, any of the representations or warranties made by the Parent or Merger Subs in this Agreement, including in any certificate delivered by or on behalf of the Parent or Merger Subs pursuant hereto, without giving effect to any qualifications as to materiality, Material Adverse Effect, substantial compliance or similar qualifications contained in such representations and warranties; and

(b) any breach of or failure to perform any covenants or agreements of the Parent or Merger Subs provided for in this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement to which it is a party; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, neither the Parent nor the Surviving Company shall be liable to any Holder for any payment inaccuracy if such payment is made in accordance with the Securities Payment Schedule.

8.2.3 General Limitations on Claims. Notwithstanding the foregoing:

(a) (i) the aggregate amount that may be recovered by the Parent Indemnified Persons or the Holder Indemnified Persons for Losses under Section 8.2.1(a) or Section 8.2.2(a)) (except with respect to any Special Representations), respectively, shall not exceed the Cap

Amount and (ii) the aggregate amount that may be recovered by the Parent Indemnified Persons or the Holder Indemnified Persons for Losses (A) under Section 8.2.1(a) or Section 8.2.2(a)) with respect to any Special Representations and (B) Section 8.2.1(b), Section 8.2.2(b) and Section 8.2.1(c), respectively, shall not exceed the Total Merger Consideration actually paid to holders hereunder (with the Parent Common Stock having a deemed value equal to the Average Parent Stock Price as of the Closing Date); provided, however, that the indemnification obligations of the Holders and the Parent with respect to Losses arising from or relating to any fraud, willful misconduct or intentional misrepresentation shall not be subject to any limitation;

(b) the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to any Parent Indemnified Person for Losses under Section 8.2.1(a), 8.2.1(b), 8.2.2(a)) or 8.2.2(b), respectively, until the aggregate amount of such Losses exceeds the Deductible, in which event the Indemnifying Party shall only be required to pay or be liable for Losses in excess of the Deductible;

(c) for purposes of determining the amount of any Losses resulting from or in connection with the breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company or any Holder, such representations and warranties shall be read as though none of them were subject to materiality, Material Adverse Effect, substantial compliance or similar qualifications;

(d) notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, all indemnification obligations under this ARTICLE VIII shall exclude punitive or exemplary damages (except to the extent that Losses payable to a third party as a result of a Third Party Claim include punitive or exemplary damages);

(e) payments by an Indemnifying Party pursuant to Section 8.2.1 or Section 8.2.2 in respect of any Losses shall be limited to the amount of any liability or damage that remains after deducting therefrom any insurance proceeds and any indemnity, contribution or other similar payment actually received (net of any increase in premiums for such insurance with respect thereto); the Parent Indemnified Person shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to recover under insurance policies or indemnity, contribution or other similar agreements for any Losses; and

(f) (i) any Losses for which any Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification hereunder shall be determined without duplication of recovery by reason of the state of facts giving rise to such Losses constituting a breach of more than one representation, warranty, covenant or agreement and (ii) no Indemnified Party shall have any indemnification obligations hereunder for any Losses arising out of a breach of or inaccuracy of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement (and the amount of any such Losses incurred in respect of such breach or inaccuracy shall not be included in the calculation of any limitations on indemnification set forth herein) solely to the extent Losses arising from such matter giving rise to such breach or inaccuracy were included in the determination of the Closing Adjustment Shares, Company Debt, Company Transaction Expenses or Working Capital Adjustment for purposes of determining adjustments to the Closing Merger Consideration.

8.2.4 Holder Limitation. Except (a) with respect to Losses by reason of any claims brought on the basis of fraudulent or willful misconduct or intentional misrepresentation or (b) if the Mergers do not close, in no event shall the Parent Indemnified Persons have the right under this Agreement to recover from any Holder any amounts in excess of the Total Merger Consideration paid to such Holder hereunder.

Section 8.3 Claims for Indemnification; Resolution of Conflicts.

8.3.1 Direct Claims for Indemnification. Subject to the limitations set forth above, any Parent Indemnified Person or Holder Indemnified Person (as represented by Holders’ Representative) (each, an “Indemnified Person”) may seek recovery of Losses pursuant to this Section 8.3.1 not involving a third party by delivering to Holders’ Representative (on behalf of the Holder Indemnifying Parties) or the Parent (each, an “Indemnifying Party”) as applicable, a written notice (a) stating that an Indemnified Person has paid, sustained, suffered or incurred a Loss, and (b) specifying in reasonable detail the nature of the Loss, including an estimate (if reasonably apparent) of the amount of the Loss (a “Indemnification Claim Notice”); provided, however that (1) the Indemnification Claim Notice need only specify such information to the knowledge of such Indemnified Person as of the date of such Indemnification Claim Notice, (2) shall not limit any of the rights or remedies of any Indemnified Person except to the extent that a material omission or misstatement was knowingly made in bad faith by such Indemnified Person and the Indemnifying Party shall have been materially prejudiced thereby and (3) may be updated and amended from time to time by the Indemnified Person by delivering an updated or amended Indemnification Claim Notice as provided for in the preceding sentence. All claims for indemnification under this Section 8.3 (i) by any Holder Indemnified Person may only be made on behalf of such Holder Indemnified Person by Holders’ Representative and (ii) against any Holder Indemnifying Party shall be addressed to Holders’ Representative. The Indemnifying Party may object to a claim for indemnification set forth in an Indemnification Claim Notice by delivering a notice to the Indemnified Person seeking indemnification within 30 days of the delivery of the applicable Indemnification Claim Notice or in the case of an amended Indemnification Claim Notice, within 30 days of the delivery of the applicable amended Indemnification Claim Notice (the “Indemnification Claim Objection Deadline”), setting forth in reasonable detail the objections to the claim. If the Indemnifying Party either notifies the applicable Indemnified Person that it does not object or does not object in writing by the Indemnification Claim Objection Deadline, such failure to so object shall be an irrevocable acknowledgment that the Indemnified Person is entitled to the full amount of the claims set forth in such Indemnification Claim Notice, and the Indemnifying Party shall take all necessary actions under this Agreement to effect payment in respect thereof.

8.3.2 Resolution of Conflicts.

(a) If an Indemnifying Party timely delivers an Objection Notice in accordance with Section 8.3.1, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Person(s) shall attempt in good faith for 30 days to resolve such dispute. If the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Person(s) reach an agreement with respect to such dispute, a memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by the parties (a “Settlement Memorandum”).

(b) If the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Person(s) are unable to resolve such dispute during such 30-day period, any party to such dispute may institute dispute resolution proceedings in accordance with Section 9.14 and Section 9.15 with respect to the matter. Any final and non-appealable written decision, judgment or award rendered by a court of competent jurisdiction as to the validity and amount of any claim in such Indemnification Claim Notice shall be final, binding, and conclusive upon the parties to such dispute and any other Indemnifying Parties and Indemnified Persons.

8.3.3 Third Party Claims.

(a) In the event that any Action is instituted, or that any claim is asserted, by any Person not party to this Agreement in respect of an indemnifiable matter hereunder (a “Third Party Claim”), the Indemnified Person seeking indemnification for any related Loss shall notify in writing the Indemnifying Party of any such Action or claim promptly after receiving notice thereof (each, a “Third

Party Indemnification Claim Notice”); provided, however, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Person in giving any such notice shall relieve an Indemnifying Party of any indemnification obligations unless, and only to the extent that, such Indemnifying Party is actually and materially prejudiced by such delay and then only to the extent of such prejudice. Subject to the provisions of this Section 8.3.3, and assuming the Indemnified Person does not have the right to elect or does not choose to elect in its Third Party Indemnification Claim Notice to assume the defense of the Third Party Claim in accordance with clause (d) of this Section 8.3.3, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled at its own expense to conduct and control the defense and settlement of such Third Party Claim on behalf of the Indemnified Person through counsel chosen by the Indemnifying Party and reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Person if the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Person in writing within 30 days (or sooner, if the nature of the Third Party Claim so requires) of its intent to do so and confirms that the Indemnifying Party shall be obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Person against all resulting Losses in accordance with this Agreement. If the Indemnifying Party does not elect within 30 days (or sooner, if the nature of the Third Party Claim so requires) to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Person may defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with such Third Party Claim with counsel of its choice at the expense of the Indemnifying Party.

(b) If the Indemnifying Party elects to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Third Party Claim:

(i) the Indemnifying Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to defend such Third Party Claim;

(ii) the Indemnified Person, prior to the period in which the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of such matter, may take such reasonable actions to preserve any and all rights with respect to such matter, without such actions being construed as a waiver of the Indemnified Person’s rights to defense and indemnification pursuant to this Agreement and without such actions being determinative of the amount of any indemnifiable Losses, except to the extent the Indemnifying Party’s ability to defend such action is actually and materially prejudiced by such actions; and

(iii) the Indemnified Person may participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim with separate counsel at its own expense or, if so requested by the Indemnifying Party or, if in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Indemnified Person, a conflict or potential conflict exists between the Indemnified Person and the Indemnifying Party that would make such separate representation advisable, at the reasonable expense of the Indemnifying Party.

(i) cooperate with each other in connection with the defense, negotiation or settlement of any such Third Party Claim;

(ii) make available witnesses in a timely manner to provide testimony through declarations, affidavits, depositions, or at hearing or trial and to work with each other in preparation for such events consistent with deadlines dictated by the particular Third Party Claim;

(iii) preserve all documents and things required by litigation hold orders pending with respect to particular Third Party Claims; and

(iv) provide such documents and things to each other, consistent with deadlines dictated by a particular matter, as required by legal procedure or court order, or if reasonably

requested by another Party hereto;

provided that such cooperation referenced in clauses (i) through (iv) shall not be required if it could reasonably be expected to result in a waiver of any attorney-client, work product or other privilege, and provided further that the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to avoid production of confidential information (consistent with Law), and to cause all communications among Employees, counsel and others representing any party to a Third Party Claim to be made so as to preserve any applicable attorney-client or work-product privileges.

(d) Except as permitted in this Section 8.3.3, the Indemnifying Party shall not, without the written consent of the Indemnified Person(s) (such consent not to be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed), settle or compromise any Third Party Claim or permit a default or consent to entry of any judgment (each a “Settlement”); provided, however, that an Indemnified Person’s written consent shall not be required if (i) the claimant provides such Indemnified Person an unqualified release from all liability in respect of the Third Party Claim, (ii) such Settlement does not impose any additional liabilities or obligations on the Indemnified Person and (iii) with respect to any non-monetary provision of such Settlement, such provisions could not have, or be reasonably expected to have, any adverse effect on the business, assets, financial condition or results of operations of the Indemnified Person and its Subsidiaries, if any. Any Settlement or compromise that does not comply with the preceding sentence shall not be determinative of the amount of Losses with respect to any related claims for indemnification pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII. The costs incurred by Holders’ Representative pursuant to participating in the defense of any Third Party Claims shall constitute Holders’ Representative Expenses.

(e) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if (i) a Third Party Claim seeks relief other than the payment of monetary damages, (ii) the claim for indemnification relates to or arises in connection with any criminal proceeding, action or indictment, or (iii) the Indemnified Person reasonably concludes that the amount of the Third Party Claim and associated defense costs shall exceed the limits on the Indemnifying Party’s obligations under Section 8.2.3(a) or the Indemnifying Party’s financial resources available to defend against the Third Party Claim, then, in each such case, the Indemnified Person alone shall be entitled to contest, defend and settle such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnified Person elects to exercise such right to contest, defend and settle such Third Party Claim, then the Indemnified Person shall notify the Indemnifying Party of such election within 30 days of the later of (x) receiving the applicable Third Party Indemnification Claim Notice or (y) the occurrence of the event giving rise to the Indemnified Person’s right to make such election pursuant to clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of this Section 8.3.3(e). In such event, the Indemnified Person shall instead have the right to be represented by counsel of its choice (of which it shall notify the Indemnifying Party) at the Indemnifying Party’s reasonable expense and to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Third Party Claim. If the Indemnified Person elects to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Third Party Claim, then (1) the Indemnified Person shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to defend such Third Party Claim, conduct such defense in a good faith and reasonably diligent manner, keep the Indemnifying Party reasonably informed of the status of such defense, and use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Indemnifying Party with respect to such defense during the course of such defense, and (2) the Indemnifying Party may participate, at its own expense, in the defense of such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnified Person does not elect to contest, defend and settle such Third Party Claim, then the Indemnifying Party shall then have the right to contest and defend such Third Party Claim as described above in Section 8.3.3(a). Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Third Party Claims in respect of Taxes shall be governed by Section 5.8.2 rather than this Section 8.3.3.

8.3.4 Surviving Company. The Parties acknowledge and agree that if the Surviving Company suffers, incurs or otherwise becomes subject to any Losses as a result of or in connection with

any misrepresentation or inaccuracy in or breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement, then (without limiting any of the rights of the Surviving Company as an Indemnified Person) the Parent shall also be deemed, by virtue of its ownership of the equity interests of the Surviving Company, to have incurred Losses as a result of and in connection with such misrepresentation, inaccuracy or breach.

8.3.5 Exclusive Remedies. Subject to any claim for fraud and Section 9.9, the parties acknowledge and agree that their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article VIII. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted under Law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement it may have against the other parties hereto and their Affiliates and each of their respective Representatives arising under or based upon any Law, except pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article VIII. Nothing in this Section 8.3.5 shall limit any Person’s right to seek and obtain any equitable relief to which any Person shall be entitled pursuant to Section 9.9.

8.3.6 Indemnification Adjusts Merger Consideration for Tax Purposes. Each Party shall, including retroactively, treat indemnification payments under this Agreement as adjustments to the Closing Merger Consideration and Milestone Payments for Tax purposes to the extent permitted under applicable Law.

8.3.7 No Subrogation. No Holder shall make any claim for indemnification against either the Parent Indemnified Persons or the Surviving Company based on the fact that such Holder was a controlling person, director, Employee or agent of the Company (whether such claim is for Losses of any kind or otherwise and whether such claim is pursuant to Law, a Charter Document, a Contract or otherwise) with respect to any claim brought by a Parent Indemnified Person against any Holder under or relating to this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement or the Transactions. With respect to any claim brought by a Parent Indemnified Person against any Holder under or relating to this Agreement, any Transaction Agreement or the Transactions, each Holder expressly waives any right of subrogation, contribution, advancement, indemnification or other claim against the Company with respect to any indemnification obligation or any other liability to which such Holder may become subject under or in connection with this Agreement.

8.3.8 Payment of Claims. Claims for indemnification by a Parent Indemnified Person against any Holder pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII will be satisfied (a) first, by reducing the amount of any Milestone Payments then payable but not yet paid by all or a portion of such Losses and (b) second, at the discretion of the Indemnifying Party, in cash or by the forfeiture and automatic transfer to Parent of the number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal in value to the amount of the Losses claimed by the Parent Indemnified Person (based upon the Average Parent Stock Price as of the date of the delivery of the Indemnification Claim Notice).

Section 8.4 Holders’ Representative.

8.4.1 Appointment. By virtue of approving the First Merger and the execution of the Support Agreements, each of the Holders shall irrevocably nominate, constitute and appoint Holders’ Representative with full power of substitution, to act in the name, place and stead of the Holders for purposes of executing any documents and taking any actions that Holders’ Representative may, in its sole discretion, determine to be necessary, desirable or appropriate in connection with any claim for

indemnification, compensation or reimbursement under this ARTICLE VIII or set-off in satisfaction of claims. Xxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx hereby accepts its appointment as Holders’ Representative.

8.4.2 Authority. The Holders grant to Holders’ Representative full authority to execute, deliver, acknowledge, certify and file on behalf of each such Holder (in the name of any or all of the Holders or otherwise) any and all documents that Holders’ Representative may, in its sole discretion, determine to be necessary, desirable or appropriate, in such forms and containing such provisions as Holders’ Representative may, in its sole discretion, determine to be appropriate, in performing its duties as contemplated by this Section 8.4. Notwithstanding anything in any Transaction Agreement to the contrary: (a) each Indemnified Person shall be entitled to deal exclusively with Holders’ Representative on all matters relating to any claim for indemnification, compensation, reimbursement or set off pursuant to ARTICLE VIII; and (b) the Parent, each Parent Indemnified Person and each Holder shall be entitled to rely conclusively (without further evidence of any kind whatsoever) on any document executed or purported to be executed on behalf of any Holder by Holders’ Representative and on any other action taken or purported to be taken on behalf of any Holder by Holders’ Representative as fully binding upon such Holder. A decision, act, consent or instruction of Holders’ Representative, including an amendment, extension or waiver of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.4 or Section 9.5 shall constitute a decision of the Holders and shall be final, binding and conclusive upon the Holders. Parent, Merger Subs, and the Surviving Company may rely upon any such decision, act, consent or instruction of Holders’ Representative as being the decision, act, consent or instruction of the Holders. Parent, Merger Subs, and the Surviving Company are hereby relieved from any liability to any Person for any acts done by them in accordance with such decision, act, consent or instruction of Holders’ Representative.

8.4.3 Power of Attorney. The Holders recognize and intend that the power of attorney granted to the Holders’ Representative: (a) is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable; (b) may be delegated by Holders’ Representative; and (c) shall survive the death, dissolution or incapacity, as applicable, of each of the Holders.

8.4.4 Replacement. If Holders’ Representative is dissolved, resigns or is otherwise unable to fulfill its responsibilities hereunder, the Holders shall (by consent of those Persons entitled to at least a majority of the Milestone Payments), within ten days after such dissolution, resignation or inability, appoint a successor to Holders’ Representative reasonably satisfactory to Parent. Any such successor shall succeed Holders’ Representative as Holders’ Representative hereunder. If for any reason there is no Holders’ Representative at any time, all references herein to Holders’ Representative shall be deemed to refer to the Holders who may take action by the written consent of Persons entitled to at least a majority of the Milestone Payments.

8.4.5 Indemnification; Holders’ Representative Expenses. The Holders’ Representative shall not be liable to the Holders for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it as Holders’ Representative except in the case of willful misconduct or gross negligence. The Holders shall severally, but not jointly, indemnify Holders’ Representative and hold Holders’ Representative harmless from and against all Holders’ Representative Expenses. The foregoing indemnities will survive the Closing, the resignation or removal of the Holders’ Representative or the termination of this Agreement.

Section 9.3 Assignment and Succession. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder may be assigned or delegated by any of the Parties without the written consent of the other Parties, except that Parent or Merger Subs may, without the prior consent of any other Party, (a) assign any or all of its rights, interests and obligations under this Agreement to any

Affiliate of Parent, (b) assign this Agreement and any of its rights and obligations hereunder to the purchaser of all or substantially all of its equity securities or assets by merger, contract or otherwise in one transaction or a series of related transactions and (c) collaterally assign this Agreement to any lender; provided that no such assignment shall relieve the assigning party of any of its obligations hereunder. Any assignment of this Agreement or any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder not permitted under this Section 9.3 shall be null and void ab initio. Subject to the foregoing terms of this Section 9.3, this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

Section 9.4 Amendment or Supplement. Subject to the requirements of applicable Law, this Agreement may be amended at any time by execution of an instrument in writing identifying itself as an amendment signed, when amended prior to the Closing, by Parent, Merger Subs and the Company and, when amended on or after the Closing, by Parent, the Surviving Company and Holders’ Representative. For purposes of this Section 9.4, the Holders have agreed pursuant to the Support Agreements that any amendment of this Agreement consented to by Holders’ Representative shall be binding on and enforceable against them, whether or not they have signed this Agreement or such amendment, except those relating to the Total Merger Consideration, which shall require the vote of 67% of the Holders.

Section 9.5 Waivers. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be valid and binding unless it is in writing and signed by the Party against whom the waiver is to be effective. No failure on the part of any Party in exercising any right, privilege or remedy hereunder and no delay on the part of any Party in executing any right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right hereunder. No notice to or demand on a Party made hereunder shall operate as a waiver of any right of the Party giving such notice or making such demand to take further action without notice or demand as permitted hereunder.

Section 9.6 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including the Schedules and Exhibits hereto and the other documents referred to herein which form a part hereof, the Confidentiality Agreement and the Support Agreements, contain the entire understanding of the Parties with respect to the subject matter contained herein and therein. This Agreement supersedes all prior and contemporaneous, agreements, arrangements, contracts, discussions, negotiations, undertakings and understandings (whether written or oral) between the Parties with respect to such subject matter (other than the Confidentiality Agreement and the Support Agreements). Upon the Closing, the Confidentiality Agreement shall automatically terminate and none of the Parties shall have any further Liability or obligation thereunder.

Section 9.7 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any Person (other than the Parties) any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under this Agreement, except (a) that after the Effective Time, Parent Indemnified Persons and Holder Indemnified Persons shall be third party beneficiaries for purposes of enforcing the rights granted to such Parent Indemnified Persons and Holder Indemnified Persons under Section 8.2 and (b) and set forth in Section 5.14. For the avoidance of doubt, no consent of any Indemnified Person shall be necessary to amend any provision of this Agreement.

Section 9.8 Remedies Cumulative. All rights and remedies of each of the Parties shall be cumulative and the exercise of any one or more rights or remedies shall not preclude the exercise of any other right or remedy available hereunder or under applicable Law.

Section 9.9 Specific Performance. The Parties agree that Parent and Merger Subs would be irreparably harmed if any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their

specific terms and that any breach of this Agreement by the Company could not be compensated adequately by monetary damages alone. Accordingly, the Parties agree that, in addition to any other remedy to which they may be entitled to at Law or in equity, Parent and Merger Subs shall be entitled to seek temporary, preliminary and/or permanent injunctive relief or injunctions to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement (including the right of Parent to compel the other Parties to cause the Mergers to be consummated on the terms and subject to conditions set forth in this Agreement) without having to prove irreparable harm or that monetary damages would be inadequate. The Company expressly waives any requirement under any Law that Parent or Merger Subs obtain any bond or give any other undertaking in connection with any action seeking injunctive relief or specific performance of any of the provisions of this Agreement. The Company further agrees that in the event of any action for specific performance relating to this Agreement or the Mergers, it shall not assert and hereby waives the defense that a remedy at Law would be adequate or that specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason in Law or equity.

Section 9.10 Severability. If a court of competent jurisdiction finds that any term or provision of the Agreement is invalid, illegal or unenforceable under any Law or public policy, the remaining provisions of the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect if the economic and legal substance of this Agreement and the Mergers shall not be affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party. Any such term or provision found to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable only in part or in degree shall remain in full force and effect to the extent not invalid, illegal or unenforceable. Upon the determination that any term or provision is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the Parties intend that such provision shall be construed by modifying or limiting it so as to be valid and enforceable to the maximum extent possible under applicable Law and compatible with the consummation of the Transactions as originally intended.

Section 9.11 Costs and Expenses. Except as otherwise specified herein, whether or not the Mergers are consummated, each Party shall pay all costs and expenses it has incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Mergers.

Section 9.12 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original copy of this Agreement and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute one instrument. The exchange of copies of this Agreement and manually executed signature pages by transmission by facsimile or by email of a PDF of a handwritten original signature or signatures to the other Parties shall constitute effective execution and delivery of this Agreement and may be used in lieu of the original Agreement for all purposes. The signature of a Party transmitted by facsimile or other electronic means shall be deemed to be an original signature for any purpose.

Section 9.13 Governing Law. This Agreement and all claims or causes of action (whether sounding in contract or tort) arising under or related to this Agreement, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to any rule or principle that might refer the governance or construction of this Agreement to the Laws of another jurisdiction.

Section 9.14 Exclusive Jurisdiction; Venue; Service of Process. In any action or proceeding between any of the Parties arising under or related to this Agreement, the other Transaction Agreements or the Mergers, each of the Parties (a) knowingly, voluntarily, irrevocably and unconditionally consents and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or to the extent that such court does not accept jurisdiction, the Superior Court of the State of Delaware or the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, (b) agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding shall be heard and determined exclusively in accordance with clause (a) of this Section 9.14, (c) waives any objection to the laying of venue of any such action or proceeding in such courts, including any objection that any such action or proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient

forum or that the court does not have jurisdiction over any Party and (d) agrees that service of process upon such Party in any such action or proceeding shall be effective if such process is given as a notice in accordance with Section 9.2. The Parties agree that any Party may commence a proceeding in a court other than the above-named courts solely for the purpose of enforcing an order or judgment issued by one of the above-named courts.

Section 9.15 JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY, IRREVOCABLY AND UNDER THE PROFESSIONAL ADVICE OF COUNSEL WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTION AGREEMENTS OR THE MERGERS BETWEEN ANY OF THE PARTIES.

Section 9.16 Conflict of Interest. If the Holders’ Representative so desires, acting on behalf of the Holders and without the need for any consent or waiver by the Company or Parent, Xxxxxx LLP (“Cooley”) shall be permitted to represent the Holders after the Closing in connection with any matter, including without limitation, anything related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, any other agreements referenced herein or any disagreement or dispute relating thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, after the Closing, Cooley shall be permitted to represent the Holders, any of their agents and Affiliates, or any one or more of them, in connection with any negotiation, transaction or dispute (including any litigation, arbitration or other adversary proceeding) with Parent, the Company or any of their agents or Affiliates under or relating to this Agreement, any transaction contemplated by this Agreement, and any related matter, such as claims or disputes arising under other agreements entered into in connection with this Agreement, including with respect to any indemnification claims. Upon and after the Closing, the Company shall cease to have any attorney-client relationship with Cooley, unless and to the extent Cooley is specifically engaged in writing by the Company to represent the Company after the Closing and either such engagement involves no conflict of interest with respect to the Holders or the Holders’ Representative consents in writing at the time to such engagement. Any such representation of the Company by Cooley after the Closing shall not affect the foregoing provisions hereof.

Section 9.17 Attorney-Client Privilege. The attorney-client privilege of the Company related to the Mergers shall be deemed to be the right of the Holders, and not that of the Surviving Company, following the Closing, and may be waived only by the Holders’ Representative. Absent the consent of the Holders’ Representative, neither Parent nor the Surviving Company shall have a right to access attorney-client privileged material of the Company related to the Mergers following the Closing (collectively, the “Protected Material”). Upon and after the Closing, none of Parent, the Surviving Company, nor their Affiliates shall have any right of access to any communications relating to the Protected Material.
