AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION

THIS AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION (this “Agreement”), dated as of March 10, 2021, is made by and among Akerna Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Buyer”), Navigator Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Seller”), and Viridian Sciences, Inc., a Delaware corporation and direct wholly owned Subsidiary of Seller (the “Company”). Buyer, Seller and the Company will each be referred to herein from time to time as a “Party” and, collectively, as the “Parties.” Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein have the meanings set forth in Article XII below.

WHEREAS, the Company provides business management software solutions for the seed-to-sale cannabis industry (the “Business”);

WHEREAS, in accordance with this Agreement, Buyer wishes to issue the Share Consideration (as defined below) to Seller in exchange for all of the Company Shares; and

WHEREAS, it is intended that the sale by Seller of the Company Shares to Buyer in exchange for the Share Consideration pursuant to this Agreement (the “Share Exchange”) shall be treated as a tax-free reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(B) of the Code.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:

1.02 Withholding. Notwithstanding any provision contained herein to the contrary, Buyer will be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under any provision of applicable Tax Law; provided, however, that Buyer will provide Seller with advance notice of any proposed withholding and will reasonably cooperate with Seller to reduce or eliminate such withholding if permissible under applicable Tax Law. If Buyer so withholds amounts, such amounts will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

ARTICLE II

(b) At the Closing, Buyer shall deliver the following agreements and

documents to Seller;

(i) a certificate of the Secretary of Buyer, dated as of the Closing Date and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Seller, certifying and attaching: (A) the resolutions adopted by the Board of Director of Buyer to authorize and adopt this Agreement and the other transactions

2.03 Share Issuance. At Closing, Buyer shall issue to Seller a share certificate representing the number of shares of Buyer Common Stock sufficient to deliver the Share Consideration, and, as promptly as practicable, credit in the stock ledger and other appropriate books and records of Buyer for the number of shares of Buyer issued to Seller in respect of the Share Consideration.

2.04 Earnout Shares and Payments.

(a) In addition to the Share Consideration payable pursuant to Section 1.01, Buyer shall be required to issue additional shares of Buyer Common Stock (such shares, the “Earnout Shares”) to Seller as provided in this Section 2.04: Buyer shall issue to Seller a number of Earnout Shares, valued at the Earnout Share Price, equal to the total dollar amount of Revenue generated by the Company in excess of $4 million (the “Earnout Payment”) during the twelve (12) months following Closing Date (the “Earnout Period”), and once the Earnout Shares are issued to Seller, Buyer shall have no further obligations pursuant to this Section 2.04(a).

(b) Buyer shall provide Seller with a statement setting forth the Revenue during the Earnout Period and the calculation of the Earnout Shares and the Earnout Payment (the “Earnout Statement”), supported by reasonable documentation, within 45 days following the completion of the Earnout Period. After receipt of the Earnout Statement, Seller shall have 30 days (the “Earnout Review Period”) to review the Earnout Statement. During the Earnout Review Period, Seller shall have full access to the books and records of the Company, to the employees and advisors of the Company, and work papers prepared by Buyer, to the extent that they relate to the Earnout Statement and Buyer’s calculations set forth therein and to such historical financial information (to the extent in Buyer’s possession) relating to the Earnout Statement as Seller may reasonably request for the purpose of reviewing the Earnout Statement and to prepare an Earnout Statement of Objections (defined below); provided, that such access shall be during normal working business hours and in a manner that does not interfere with the normal business operations of Buyer or the Company.

(c) On or prior to the last day of the Earnout Review Period, Seller may object to the Earnout Statement by delivering to Buyer a written statement setting forth Seller’s objections in reasonable detail, indicating each disputed item or amount and the basis for Seller’s disagreement therewith (the “Earnout Statement of Objections”). If Seller fails to deliver the Earnout Statement of Objections before the expiration of the Earnout Review Period, the Revenue, Earnout Shares and Earnout Payment reflected in the Earnout Statement shall be deemed to have been accepted by Seller as of the last day of the Earnout Review Period. If Seller delivers the Earnout Statement of Objections before the expiration of the Earnout Review Period, Buyer and Seller shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such objections within 30 days (or such period as they may mutually agree) after the delivery of the Earnout Statement of Objections

(the “Earnout Resolution Period”), and, if the same are so resolved by written agreement of Buyer and Seller within the Earnout Resolution Period, the Revenue, Earnout Shares, Earnout Payment and the Earnout Statement with such changes (if any) as agreed to in writing by Buyer and Seller shall be final and binding.

(d) If Seller and Buyer fail to reach an agreement with respect to all of the matters set forth in the Earnout Statement of Objections before expiration of the Earnout Resolution Period, then any amounts remaining in dispute shall be submitted for resolution to the Independent Accountant according to the same process for resolving disputes relating to the Final Closing Statement pursuant to Section 2.05(d)(iii), (iv) and (v).

(e) Any Earnout Shares that Buyer is required to issue pursuant to Section 2.04(a) shall be issued to Seller (i) if no Earnout Statement of Objections is delivered, no later than 10 days following the completion of the Earnout Review Period, and (ii) if an Earnout Statement of Objections is delivered, no later than 10 days following the resolution of such dispute. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Buyer sells the Company, its assets or the Business prior to the expiration of the Earnout Period, an Earnout Payment in the amount of $1,000,000 shall be due and payable to Seller no later than the closing of such sale transaction.

(f) The Parties understand and agree that (i) the contingent rights to receive any Earnout Shares pursuant to this Section 2.04 shall not be represented by any form of certificate or other instrument, are not transferable, except as specifically provided herein, and do not constitute an equity or ownership interest in Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries; (ii) Seller shall not have any rights as a securityholder of Buyer in respect of its contingent right to receive any Earnout Shares hereunder; and (iii) no interest is payable with respect to any Earnout Shares or cash payment pursuant to this Section 2.04. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that Buyer shall not, directly or indirectly, take any actions in bad faith for the sole purpose of avoiding or reducing any amount of Earnout Shares otherwise payable to Seller hereunder. Seller acknowledges and agrees that (A) the payments set forth in this Section 2.04 are speculative and not guaranteed; (B) none of Buyer, the Company nor any of their respective Affiliates or Representatives has promised or projected, and Seller has not relied on any statements regarding, any payments under this Section 2.04 or any projections for any period following the Closing; (C) other than the express covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement, none of Buyer, the Company nor any of their respective Affiliates or Representatives owe any fiduciary duties or any other duties (express or implied) to maximize the Revenue during the Earnout Period; and (D) the Parties solely intend the express provisions of this Agreement to govern their contractual relationship. In no event will the aggregate Earnout Payment exceed $1,000,000.

2.05 Share Consideration Adjustments.

(a) Share Consideration Adjustments. At the Closing, the Closing Consideration will be calculated by adjusting the Share Consideration in the following manner: either (i) increasing the Share Consideration by the amount, if any, by which the Estimated Closing Working Capital (as determined in accordance with Section 2.05(b)) is greater than the Target Working Capital, or (B) decreasing the Share Consideration by the amount, if any, by which the Estimated Closing Working Capital is less than the Target Working Capital; provided, that if the absolute value of the difference between the Estimated Closing Working Capital and the Target Working Capital is less than $50,000, there shall be no increase or decrease to the Share Consideration at the Closing.

(b) At least two (2) Business Days before the Closing, Seller shall prepare and deliver to Buyer a statement, together with supporting details (the “Estimated Closing Statement”), setting forth Seller’s good faith estimate of the balance sheet of the Company as of immediately prior to the Closing

(without giving effect to the transactions contemplated hereby) and, based thereon, setting forth Seller’s good faith estimate of the Closing Consideration and Closing Working Capital (the “Estimated Closing Working Capital”), prepared consistently with Annex 1.

(i) Within 30 days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Seller a statement, together with supporting details (the “Final Closing Statement”), setting forth Buyer’s good faith calculation of (A) the Closing Consideration and Closing Working Capital and (B) the resulting adjustments, if any, required to be made to the Closing Consideration pursuant to Section 2.05(c)(ii), prepared consistently with Annex 1.

(ii) If the Closing Consideration, as finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.05 (the “Final Closing Consideration”), is greater than or less than the Closing Consideration reflected in the Estimated Closing Statement (the “Estimated Closing Consideration”), there shall be an adjustment to the Closing Consideration (the “Post-Closing Adjustment”); provided, that there shall be no Post-Closing Adjustment with respect to the Closing Working Capital if the absolute value of the difference between the Closing Working Capital and the Target Working Capital is less than $50,000. Subject to the foregoing, the Post-Closing Adjustment shall be an amount equal to the Final Closing Consideration minus the Estimated Closing Consideration. In accordance with Section 2.05(d)(vi), if the Post-Closing Adjustment is a positive number, Buyer shall pay to Seller an amount equal to the Post-Closing Adjustment; if the Post-Closing Adjustment is a negative number, Seller shall pay to Buyer an amount equal to the absolute value of the Post-Closing Adjustment; or if the Post-Closing Adjustment is zero, no payment shall be made.

(d) Examination and Review for Working Capital.

(i) Examination. After receipt of the Final Closing Statement, Seller shall have 30 days (the “Review Period”) to review the Final Closing Statement. During the Review Period, Seller shall have full access to the books and records of the Company, to the employees and advisors of the Company, and work papers prepared by Buyer, to the extent that they relate to the Final Closing Statement and Buyer’s calculations set forth therein and to such historical financial information (to the extent in Buyer’s possession) relating to the Final Closing Statement as Seller may reasonably request for the purpose of reviewing the Final Closing Statement and to prepare a Statement of Objections (defined below); provided, that such access shall be during normal working business hours and in a manner that does not interfere with the normal business operations of Buyer or the Company.

(ii) Objection. On or prior to the last day of the Review Period, Seller may object to the Final Closing Statement by delivering to Buyer a written statement setting forth Seller’s objections in reasonable detail, indicating each disputed item or amount and the basis for Seller’s disagreement therewith (the “Statement of Objections”). If Seller fails to deliver the Statement of Objections before the expiration of the Review Period, the Closing Working Capital Statement and the Post-Closing Adjustment, as the case may be, reflected in the Final Closing Statement shall be deemed to have been accepted by Seller as of the last day of the Review Period. If Seller delivers the Statement of Objections before the expiration of the Review Period, Buyer and Seller shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such objections within 30 days (or such period as they may mutually agree) after the delivery of the Statement of Objections (the “Resolution Period”), and, if the same are so resolved by written agreement of Buyer and Seller within the Resolution Period, the Post-Closing Adjustment and the Final Closing Statement with such changes (if any) as agreed to in writing by Buyer and Seller shall be final and binding.

(iii) Resolution of Disputes. If Seller and Buyer fail to reach an agreement with respect to all of the matters set forth in the Statement of Objections before expiration of the Resolution Period, then any amounts remaining in dispute (“Disputed Amounts”) shall be submitted for resolution to Xxxx Xxxxx LLP or, if Xxxx Xxxxx LLP declines to serve, the office of a nationally or regionally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants that Buyer and Seller shall appoint by mutual agreement; provided that in the event that Buyer and Seller are unable to mutually agree upon an independent certified public accounting firm within ten (10) days after the date that either Party discovers that Xxxx Xxxxx LLP declines to serve, Buyer and Seller shall each select an independent certified public accounting firm within five (5) days thereafter and the two (2) independent certified public accounting firms shall mutually agree upon a nationally or regionally recognized independent certified public accounting firm within ten (10) days after being selected (the final independent public accounting firm (the “Independent Accountant”) who, acting as an expert and not an arbitrator, shall resolve the Disputed Amounts only and make adjustments (if any) to the Post-Closing Adjustment, and the Final Closing Statement. The Parties agree that all adjustments shall be made without regard to materiality. The Independent Accountant shall only decide the specific items under dispute by the Parties and their decision for each Disputed Amount must be within the range of values assigned to each such item in the Final Closing Statement and the Statement of Objections, respectively. Buyer and Seller shall each furnish to the Independent Accountant such work papers and other documents and information relating to the disputed issues, and shall provide interviews and answer questions, as such Independent Accountant may reasonably request.

(iv) Fees of the Independent Accountant. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant shall be paid by Seller, on the one hand, and by Buyer, on the other hand, based upon the percentage that the amount actually contested but not awarded to Seller or Buyer, respectively, bears to the aggregate amount actually contested by Seller and Buyer. For clarity, if Seller’s Disputed Amount is $100,000 and the Independent Accountant awards Seller $30,000, Seller shall pay 70% of the fees of the Independent Accountant.

(v) Determination by Independent Accountant. The Independent Accountant shall make a written determination with respect to each Disputed Item, which shall include an explanation in writing for the Independent Accountant’s reasons for the determinations set forth therein, as soon as practicable within 30 days (or such other time as the Parties shall agree in writing) after its engagement, and the Independent Accountant’s resolution of the Disputed Amounts and adjustments (if any) to the Final Closing Statement and/or the Post-Closing Adjustment shall be conclusive and binding upon the Parties.

(vi) Payments of Post-Closing Adjustment. Except as otherwise provided herein, any payment of the Post-Closing Adjustment shall (A) be due (x) if there are not Disputed Amounts, within ten (10) Business Days after acceptance of the Final Closing Statement or (y) if there are Disputed Amounts, then within ten (10) Business Days after the resolution described in clause (v) above; and (B) (1) if a payment is required to be made to Buyer, then Buyer will be entitled to receive out of the Escrow Amount, the amount of Buyer Common Stock valued at the Buyer Price equal to such payment, or if the amount of such payment due to Buyer exceeds the Escrow Amount, such excess amount shall be withheld from the Earnout Payment, if any, and (2) if a payment is required to be made to Seller, Buyer shall issue to Seller the amount of Buyer Common Stock valued at the Buyer Price equal to the amount of such payment due to Seller.

(e) Adjustments for Tax Purposes. Any payments made pursuant to this Section 2.05 will be treated as an adjustment to the Share Consideration by the Parties for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.

(a) Seller has been given access to certain information regarding Buyer, including Buyer’s filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission available at xxx.xxx.xxx (“SEC Filings”), which includes the current financial condition of Buyer and the risks associated with an investment therein, and has utilized such access to its satisfaction for the purpose of obtaining investment information about Buyer.

(b) Seller acknowledges that an investment in the Buyer Common Stock involves a high degree of risk and Seller has read and understands the SEC Filings, including the risk factors included in Buyer’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequent quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. Seller is in a financial position to hold the Buyer Common Stock indefinitely and is able to bear the economic risk and withstand a complete loss of an investment in the Common Stock.

(c) Seller has obtained, to the extent Seller deems necessary, professional advice with respect to the risks inherent in the investment in the Buyer Common Stock, the condition and business of Buyer, and the suitability of the investment in the Buyer Common Stock in light of Seller’s financial condition and investment objectives.

(d) Seller, either alone or with the assistance of Seller’s professional advisor(s), if any, is a sophisticated investor, is able to fend for itself in the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that Seller is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment in the Buyer Common Stock.

(e) The Buyer Common Stock will be acquired for investment purposes for Seller’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the distribution of any part thereof. Seller has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in or otherwise distributing the same in a manner contrary to the Securities Act, or any applicable state securities or blue sky law, and Seller does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participation to such person or to any third person, with respect to any of the Buyer Common Stock.

(g) Seller realizes that: (a) the issuance of the Buyer Common Stock has not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act or under the securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction, and the Buyer Common Stock is characterized under the Securities Act as a “restricted security” and therefore, cannot be sold or transferred unless such resale is subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available. In connection with this subject, Seller represents that Seller is familiar with Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”), as presently in effect, and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Securities Act.

(h) Seller has been advised that the issuance of the Buyer Common Stock is not being registered under the Securities Act or any other applicable state securities laws, and is being offered and sold pursuant to exemptions from such laws, and that Buyer’s reliance upon such exemptions is predicated in part on Seller’s representations contained herein. Seller represents that it is an “accredited investor” as defined under Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act, has not been organized for the specific purpose of investing in the Buyer Common Stock and is not purchasing the Buyer Common Stock as the result of any “general solicitation” or “general advertising” as those terms are used in Regulation D under the Securities Act.

(i) Without in any way limiting the representations set forth above or Buyer’s covenants in Section 10.03, Seller further agrees that it may not make any disposition of all or any portion of the Buyer Common Stock unless and until:

(i) There is then in effect a registration statement under the Securities Act covering such proposed disposition and such disposition is made in accordance with such registration statement;

(ii) Seller shall have notified Buyer of the proposed disposition and shall have furnished Buyer with a detailed statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition, and Seller shall have furnished Buyer with an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to Buyer, that such disposition will not require registration of such shares under the Securities Act; or

(iii) Buyer shall be satisfied that such proposed disposition complies in all respects with Rule 144 or any successor rule providing a safe harbor for such dispositions without registration and Seller shall have furnished Buyer with an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to Buyer, that such disposition is in accordance with Rule 144.

After the giving of any Claim Notice pursuant to Section 8.04, the amount of indemnification to which an Indemnitee shall be entitled under this Article VIII shall be determined: (i) by the written agreement between Buyer and Seller; (ii) by a final judgment or decree of any court of competent jurisdiction; or (iii) by any other means to which Buyer and Seller shall agree.

8.07 Tax Treatment of Indemnification Claims. Buyer and Seller agree to report each indemnification payment made in respect of Damages as an adjustment to the Share Consideration for federal income Tax purposes unless the indemnified party determines in good faith that such reporting position is incorrect (it being understood that if any reporting position is later disallowed in any administrative or court proceedings, the indemnifying party shall indemnify the indemnified party for the effects of such disallowance).
