AMENDED AND RESTATED

AGREEMENT AND PLAN

OF MERGER

This AMENDED AND RESTATED AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of October 14, 2014, by and among: BluePhoenix Solutions Ltd., an Israeli company (the “Foreign Parent”), Modern Systems Corporation (f/k/a BluePhoenix Solutions USA, Inc.), a Delaware corporation and an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Foreign Parent (“Parent”); BP-AT Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation and a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”); Sophisticated Business Systems, Inc., a Texas corporation doing business as “Ateras” (the “Company”); the stockholders of the Company listed on the signature page hereof; and Xxxxx Xxxxxx (“Stockholder Representative”). Foreign Parent, Parent, Merger Sub, Company and Stockholder Representative are each a “Party” and collectively the “Parties” to this Agreement. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in Exhibit A.

RECITALS

A. The Parties previously entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated August 13, 2014 (the “Prior Merger Agreement”).

B. The Parties have agreed to amend and restate the Prior Merger Agreement as set forth below.

C. The Board of Directors of each of Foreign Parent, Parent, Merger Sub and the Company have each approved and determined that it is in the best interests of their respective entities and the stockholders thereof to enter into a business combination transaction pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company continuing after the Merger as the surviving corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent.

D. The Parties hereto intend, by executing this Agreement, that outstanding shares of common stock, $1.00 par value per share, of the Company (“Company Common Stock”) will, in accordance with this Agreement, be converted into the right to receive 6,195,494 unregistered ordinary shares, par value NIS 0.04 per share, of Foreign Parent (“Foreign Parent Stock”).

E. The Parties hereto intend, by executing this Agreement, to adopt a plan of reorganization within the meaning of Section 368 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the regulations promulgated thereunder, and to cause the Merger to qualify as a tax-free reorganization under the provisions of Section 368 of the Code and Treasury Regulation §1.367(a) – 3.

F. The Parties hereto intend, by executing this Agreement, that the Foreign Parent Stock to be issued in connection with the Merger will be exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Rule 506 promulgated thereunder.

G. Concurrent with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, each of the shareholders of Foreign Parent identified on Schedule 4.3(j)(vii) are executing and delivering to Company a Uni-Lateral Shareholders’ Undertaking, agreeing to vote in favor of the Merger (the “Merger Uni-Lateral Undertakings”).

AGREEMENT

The Prior Agreement is hereby amended in its entirety and restated herein. Upon such execution, all rights, obligations, representations, warranties, covenants and other agreements made in the Prior Agreement are hereby superseded in their entirety and shall have no further force or effect. The Parties to this Agreement agree as follows:

SECTION 1. DESCRIPTION OF TRANSACTION

1.1 Merger of the Company into Merger Sub. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Effective Time, Merger Sub shall be merged with and into the Company, and the separate existence of Merger Sub shall cease. The Company will continue as the surviving corporation in the Merger (the “Surviving Corporation”) as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent.

1.2 Effect of the Merger. The Merger shall have the effects set forth in this Agreement and in the applicable provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) and the Texas Business Organizations Code (“TBOC”).

1.3 Closing; Effective Time. The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall take place at the offices of Parent, on a date to be specified by the parties, which date shall be no later than the second business day after satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Section 4 (the “Closing Date”). At the Closing, the Merger will be consummated by the filing with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and the Secretary of State of the State of Texas of the Certificates of Merger, in such form as required by, and signed and attested in accordance with, the relevant provisions of the DGCL and the TBOC, as applicable (the time of the filing of such instrument being the “Effective Time”).

1.4 Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws; Directors and Officers.

(a) At the Effective Time, the Certificate of Formation of the Company shall be amended to read in its entirety as shall be mutually agreed by the Foreign Parent, Parent, the Company and the Stockholder Representative prior to the Closing and, as so amended, shall be the Certificate of Formation of the Surviving Corporation;

(b) The Bylaws of the Company in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the Bylaws of the Surviving Corporation; and

(c) The respective directors and officers of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the directors and officers of the Surviving Corporation.

1.5 Merger Consideration; Conversion of Securities.

(a) Merger Consideration Definitions for Company Stock. The “Aggregate Merger Consideration” payable by Foreign Parent upon the Closing shall be 6,195,494 shares of Foreign Parent Stock. The Pro Rata Merger Consideration (“Pro Rata Merger Consideration”) for each stockholder of the Company as of the date hereof (collectively, the “Stockholders”) is set forth on Schedule 1.5(a) and is subject to adjustment as set forth in Section 1.8 below. The Company will deliver to Foreign Parent the final Pro Rata Merger Consideration for each Stockholder as of the Effective Time (the “Final Merger Consideration Spreadsheet”).

(b) Equity Conversion. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any further action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub or the Company:

(i) each outstanding share of Company Common Stock shall be converted into the right to receive the Pro Rata Merger Consideration; and

(ii) the shares of capital stock of Merger Sub outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and become the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Surviving Corporation following the Effective Time.

1.6 Closing of the Company’s Transfer Books. At the Effective Time, holders of certificates representing shares of capital stock of the Company (the “Company Stock Certificates”) that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to have any rights as stockholders of the Company, and the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed with respect to all shares of such capital stock of the Company outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time.

1.7 Exchange of Certificates.

(a) At the Closing, the Stockholders shall deliver to Foreign Parent the Company Stock Certificates held by such Stockholders, which shall be properly endorsed in blank or shall be accompanied by a properly executed stock power, and Foreign Parent shall cause its transfer agent to make book-entry notations for each Stockholder representing his, her or its Pro Rata Merger Consideration; provided that the book-entry notations shall represent only whole shares of Parent Common Stock and shall be rounded up or down to the nearest whole number of shares in lieu of any fractional shares to which a Stockholder would otherwise be entitled and subject to the delivery terms of the Stockholder Escrow Shares as set forth in Section 6.4. All Company Stock Certificates surrendered to Parent shall be canceled, and until surrendered and canceled as contemplated by this Section 1.7, shall be deemed, from and after the Effective Time, to represent only the right to receive the Pro Rata Merger Consideration. If any Company Stock Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, Parent may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance of any certificate representing Foreign Parent Stock, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed Company Stock Certificate to provide an appropriate affidavit and indemnity against any claim that may be made against Foreign Parent, Parent or the Surviving Corporation with respect to such lost, stolen or destroyed Company Stock Certificate.

(b) Foreign Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration payable or otherwise deliverable to any Stockholder pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as Foreign Parent or the Surviving Corporation may be required to deduct or withhold therefrom under the Code or under any provision of state, local or foreign tax law. To the extent such amounts are so deducted or withheld, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as having been paid to the Person to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid.

1.8 Adjustment to Number of Shares Comprising the Aggregate Merger Consideration; Company Common Stock. If between the Closing Date and the Effective Time, the outstanding shares of Foreign Parent Stock are changed into a different number of shares by reason of any stock split, division or subdivision of shares, stock dividend, reverse stock split, reclassification, recapitalization or other similar transaction, then the number of shares of Foreign Parent Stock comprising the Aggregate Merger Consideration shall be appropriately adjusted. If between the Closing Date and the Effective Time, the outstanding shares of Company Common Stock are changed into a different number of shares by reason of any issuance of Company common stock, stock split, division or subdivision of shares, stock dividend, reverse stock split, reclassification, recapitalization or other similar transaction, then the Pro Rata Merger Consideration shall be appropriately adjusted.

1.9 November 23, 2013 SPA. The Foreign Parent is a party to an Amended and Restated Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of November 23, 2013 (the “November 23, 2013 SPA”). The Merger may result in the issuance of Foreign Parent Stock to the purchaser party to the November 23, 2013 SPA. Any such issuance shall be dilutive to all Foreign Parent shareholders including the Company’s Stockholders.

1.10 Further Action. If, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is determined by Foreign Parent to be necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement or to vest the Surviving Corporation or Parent 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 Corporation, Foreign Parent and Parent shall be fully authorized (in the name of Merger Sub, in the name of the Company and otherwise) to take such action.

SECTION 2. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY

Contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Company shall deliver to Parent disclosure schedules numbered according to the relevant sections in this Agreement (the “Disclosure Schedules”). Any exception or qualification set forth in the Disclosure Schedules with respect to a particular representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to be an exception or qualification with respect to all other applicable representations, warranties and covenants contained in this Agreement as and to the extent the content of such disclosure makes its applicability to such other representations, warranties and covenants reasonably apparent.

6.2 Stockholder Indemnification.

(a) Indemnification. From and after the Closing Date (but subject to Sections 6.1(a) and 6.2(c) and (d)), the Stockholders severally and not jointly (in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares), shall hold harmless and indemnify each Parent Indemnitee from and against, and shall compensate, reimburse and pay for, any Damages which are directly or indirectly suffered or incurred by any Parent Indemnitee or to which any Parent Indemnitee may otherwise become subject (regardless of whether or not such Damages relate to any third-party claim) and which arise from or as a result of, or are directly or indirectly connected with: (i) any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company as of the Closing Date that is set forth in this Agreement (after giving effect to the Disclosure Schedules); (ii) any breach of any covenant or obligation of the Company in this Agreement; (iii) any accrued and unpaid wages and compensation due to current and former employees and consultants of the Company as of the Closing Date, including (1) any deferred compensation obligations set forth on the Company’s financial statements or disclosed on the Disclosure Schedules and (2) any employer tax obligations related thereto, including obligations in compliance with Code Section 409A and IRS Notice 2005-1, or (iv) any Legal Proceeding relating to any inaccuracy or breach of the type referred to in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) of this Section 6.2(a) (including any Legal Proceeding commenced by any Parent Indemnitee for the purpose of enforcing any of its rights under this Section 6.2(a)).

(b) Surviving Corporation Damages. In the event the Surviving Corporation suffers, incurs or otherwise becomes subject to any Damages as a result of or in connection with any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation by or of the Company, then (without limiting any of the rights of the Surviving Corporation as a Parent Indemnitee) Parent shall also be deemed, by virtue of its ownership of the stock of the Surviving Corporation, to have incurred Damages as a result of and in connection with such inaccuracy or breach; provided, however, that there is no duplication or doubling of Damages for which indemnification is provided under this Section 6.2.

(c) Threshold. No Parent Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Sections 6.2(a) or (b) or otherwise for any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the Company’s representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement (after giving effect to the Disclosure Schedules) until such time as the total amount of all Damages (including the Damages arising from such inaccuracy or breach and all other Damages arising from any other inaccuracies in or breaches of any representations or warranties) that have been suffered or incurred by any one or more of the Parent Indemnitees, or to which any one or more of the Parent Indemnitees has or have otherwise become subject, exceeds Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) in the aggregate (the “Threshold”), and once the total amount of such Damages exceeds the Threshold, then any Parent Indemnitee that has suffered or incurred any Damages shall be entitled to be indemnified against and compensated, reimbursed and paid for only those Damages that exceed the Threshold. The limitation provided in this Section 6.2(c) shall not apply with respect to a claim for breach of the Company Excepted Warranties or for claims pursuant to Section 6.2(a)(iii).

(d) Limit on Damages.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the cap for Damages suffered by any Parent Indemnitee as a result of or related to a claim for fraud or willful misconduct or any claim for breach of the Company Excepted Warranties, shall be the amount determined by multiplying the Aggregate Merger Consideration by the Deemed Value. As used herein, the “Company Excepted Warranties” means (i) Section 2.1(a), (ii) Section 2.3, (iii) Section 2.14, (iv) Section 2.20 and (v) Section 2.21(a). All Damages for which the Stockholders are liable may be satisfied by delivery of the shares of Foreign Parent Common Stock at the Deemed Value per share.

(e) Defense of Third Party Claims. In the event of the assertion or commencement by any Person of any claim or Legal Proceeding (whether against the Surviving Corporation, against Foreign Parent, Parent or against any other Person) with respect to which any of the Parent Indemnitees may be entitled to indemnification or any other remedy pursuant to this Section 6.2, Foreign Parent shall give the Stockholder Representative written notice of the commencement of any such Legal Proceeding against a Parent Indemnitee within fifteen (15) days after such commencement. The Stockholder Representative shall have the right to defend such claim or Legal Proceeding. If the Stockholder Representative does not elect to proceed with the defense of any such claim or Legal Proceeding, Foreign Parent or Parent may proceed with the defense of such claim or Legal Proceeding with counsel reasonably satisfactory to Stockholder Representative and at the Stockholders’ expense to be paid from the Stockholder Escrow Shares; provided, however, that Foreign Parent may not settle, adjust or compromise any such claim or Legal Proceeding without the prior written consent of the Stockholder Representative (which consent may not be unreasonably withheld). For any such claim or Legal Proceeding, the Stockholder Representative shall have the right to settle, adjust or compromise such claim or Legal Proceeding without the consent of the Parent Indemnitee as long as any such settlement, adjustment or compromise does not include an admission of liability by any Parent Indemnitee, the payment of any consideration by a Parent Indemnitee or impose any obligation on any Parent Indemnitee. Any such settlement, adjustment or compromise not meeting the foregoing will require the Parent Indemnitee’s consent; provided, however, that such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Any Parent Indemnitee may participate in any Legal Proceeding at its own expense.

6.3 Foreign Parent and Parent Indemnification.

(a) Indemnification. From and after the Closing Date (but subject to Sections 6.1(a) and 6.3(b) and (c)), Foreign Parent and Parent jointly and severally shall hold harmless and indemnify each Stockholder Indemnitee from and against, and shall compensate, reimburse and pay for, any Damages which are directly or indirectly suffered or incurred by any Stockholder Indemnitee or to which any Stockholder Indemnitee may otherwise become subject (regardless of whether or not such Damages relate to any third-party claim) and which arise from or as a result of, or are directly or indirectly connected with: (i) any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty made by Foreign Parent, Parent or the Merger Sub as of the Closing Date that is set forth in this Agreement (after giving effect to the Parent Disclosure Schedules); (ii) any breach of any covenant or obligation of Foreign Parent, Parent or the Surviving Corporation; or (iii) any Legal Proceeding relating to any inaccuracy or breach of the type referred to in clauses (i) or (ii) of this Section 6.3(a) (including any Legal Proceeding commenced by any Stockholder Indemnitee for the purpose of enforcing any of its rights under this Section 6.3(a)).

(b) Threshold. No Stockholder Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 6.3(a) for any inaccuracy in or breach of any of Foreign Parent’s, Parent’s or Merger Sub’s representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement (after giving effect to the Parent Disclosure Schedules) until such time as the total amount of all Damages (including the Damages arising from such inaccuracy or breach and all other Damages arising from any other inaccuracies in or breaches of any representations or warranties) that have been suffered or incurred by any one or more of the Stockholder Indemnitees, or to which any one or more of the Stockholder Indemnitees has or have otherwise become subject, exceeds the Threshold in the aggregate, and once the total amount of such Damages exceeds the Threshold, then any Stockholder Indemnitee that has suffered or incurred any Damages shall be entitled to be indemnified against and compensated, reimbursed and paid for only those Damages that exceed the Threshold. The limitation provided in this Section 6.3(b) shall not apply with respect to a claim for breach of the Foreign Parent Excepted Warranties.

(c) Limit on Damages. The aggregate amount of all Damages for which Foreign Parent and Parent shall be liable under this Section 6.3 shall not exceed the amount determined by multiplying three hundred nine thousand seven hundred and seventy five (309,775) shares of Foreign Parent Stock by the Deemed Value. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Foreign Parent and Parent shall be liable for all Damages suffered by any Stockholder Indemnitee as a result of or related to a claim for fraud or willful misconduct, a claim for breach of any covenant or obligation of Foreign Parent, Parent or the Surviving Corporation and for any claim for breach of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.1, Section 3.2, Section 3.3(a), Section 3.3(f), Section 3.4, Section 3.9 and Section 3.14 (the “Foreign Parent Excepted Warranties”).

(d) Defense of Third Party Claims. In the event of the assertion or commencement by any Person of any claim or Legal Proceeding (whether against a Stockholder or against any other Person) with respect to which any of the Stockholder Indemnitees may be entitled to indemnification or any other remedy pursuant to this Section 6.3, the Stockholder Representative shall give Foreign Parent written notice of the commencement of any such Legal Proceeding against a Stockholder Indemnitee within fifteen (15) days following such commencement. Foreign Parent and Parent shall have the right to defend such claim or Legal Proceeding. If Foreign Parent and Parent do not elect to proceed with the defense of any such claim or Legal Proceeding, the Stockholder Representative may proceed with the defense of such claim or Legal Proceeding with counsel reasonably satisfactory to Foreign Parent, and at Foreign Parent’s and Parent’s expense; provided, however, that the Stockholder Representative may not settle, adjust or compromise any such claim or Legal Proceeding without the prior written consent of Foreign Parent (which consent may not be unreasonably withheld). For any such claim or Legal Proceeding, Foreign Parent or Parent shall have the right to settle, adjust or compromise such claim or Legal Proceeding without the consent of the Stockho4lder Representative as long as any such settlement, adjustment or compromise does not include an admission of liability by any Stockholder Indemnitee, the payment of any consideration by a Stockholder Indemnitee or impose any obligation on such Stockholder Indemnitee. Any such settlement, adjustment or compromise not meeting the foregoing will require the Stockholder Indemnitee’s consent; provided, however, that such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Any Stockholder Indemnitee may participate in any Legal Proceeding at its own expense.

6.4 Stockholder Escrow Arrangements.

(a) Stockholder Escrow Fund. As security for the indemnity provided for in Section 6.2 and pursuant to the terms of an escrow agreement to be in a form mutually agreed upon by Parent and the Stockholder Representative (the “Escrow Agreement”), at the Closing, Parent shall deposit with the Escrow Agent one million two hundred thirty thousand (1,230,000) shares of Foreign Parent Stock otherwise issuable to the Stockholders as Aggregate Merger Consideration (the “Stockholder Escrow Shares”), which shares shall be allocated from the Stockholders as set forth on Schedule 1.5(a). American Stock and Trade, as Escrow Agent (the “Escrow Agent”), shall hold the Escrow Shares in an escrow fund (the “Stockholder Escrow Fund”) to be governed by the terms set forth herein and in the Escrow Agreement.

(b) Stockholder Escrow Period. Subject to the terms of the Escrow Agreement, the Stockholder Escrow Fund shall be in existence immediately following the Effective Time and shall terminate at 11:59 p.m., Pacific time on the Stockholder Indemnification Completion Date, which shall be the Indemnification Completion Date (the “Stockholder Escrow Period”).

(i) The Escrow Agent shall hold and safeguard the Stockholder Escrow Fund during the Stockholder Escrow Period, shall treat such fund as a trust fund in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement and not as the property of Parent and shall hold and dispose of the Stockholder Escrow Fund only in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement.

(ii) Any Foreign Parent Stock or other equity securities issued or distributed by Foreign Parent (including shares issued upon a stock split, stock dividend or recapitalization of Foreign Parent) (“New Stockholder Shares”) in respect of Stockholder Escrow Shares in the Stockholder Escrow Fund which have not been released from the Stockholder Escrow Fund shall be added to the Stockholder Escrow Fund and become a part thereof. New Stockholder Shares issued in respect of shares of Stockholder Escrow Shares which have been released from the Stockholder Escrow Fund shall not be added to the Stockholder Escrow Fund but shall be distributed to the record holders thereof. Cash dividends on Foreign Parent Stock shall not be added to the Stockholder Escrow Fund but shall be distributed to the record holders thereof.

(iii) The record holders of the Stockholder Escrow Shares shall have their respective voting rights with respect to Stockholder Escrow Shares or any New Stockholder Shares added to the Stockholder Escrow Fund.

(d) Satisfaction of Losses.

(i) Distributions Related to Escrow Shares. The Stockholder Escrow Shares having a Deemed Value as set forth in Section 6.2(d) shall be used to satisfy pursuant to Section 6.2 any Damages of any Parent Indemnitee for which a Parent Indemnitee delivers an indemnification notice under Section 6.2 during the Stockholder Escrow Period and for which it is finally determined (by joint written instructions of Foreign Parent and the Stockholder Representative given to the Escrow Agent or by a Final Arbitration Award given to the Escrow Agent) that indemnification is required under this Agreement, provided, that a Stockholder’s liability with respect to a breach of Company Excepted Warranties shall not be limited to the Stockholder Escrow Shares. Upon the conclusion of the Stockholder Escrow Period, Escrow Agent shall promptly deliver to the Stockholder Representative, an amount equal to (A) the Stockholder Escrow Shares, minus (B) any and all amounts satisfied by set-off of the Stockholder Escrow Shares for satisfaction of Damages pursuant to Section 6.2, minus (C) if any indemnification claim for Damages of any Parent Indemnitee contained in any indemnification notice delivered pursuant to Section 6.1(a) prior to the conclusion of the Stockholder Escrow Period is not finally resolved, an amount equal to Foreign Parent’s good faith estimate of the cumulative amount of all Damages disputed in any such claims as of such time (the “Pending Claim Stockholder Escrow Amount”). The Pending Claim Stockholder Escrow Amount shall remain in escrow until the dispute is finally resolved. If it is finally determined (by joint written instructions of Foreign Parent and the Stockholder Representative given to the Escrow Agent or by a Final Arbitration Award given to the Escrow Agent) pursuant to this Section 6 that no Parent Indemnitee is entitled to any portion of the Pending Claim Stockholder Escrow Amount or any portion of the Pending Claim Stockholder Escrow Amount is not used to set-off against any such pending claims (the “Pending Claim Stockholder Escrow Excess”), the Escrow Agent shall promptly deliver the Pending Claim Stockholder Escrow Excess to the Stockholder Representative.

(ii) Satisfaction of Parent Indemnitees Damages; Set-Off of Stockholder Escrow Shares. Any indemnification obligation finally determined to be owed to the Parent Indemnitees shall be satisfied by set-off against the Stockholder Escrow Shares at the Deemed Value or the Pending Claim Stockholder Escrow Amount, as applicable, by reducing the Stockholder Escrow Shares at the Deemed Value or the Pending Claim Stockholder Escrow Amount, as applicable, on a dollar for dollar basis by the amount of such indemnification obligation, unless or until the Stockholder Escrow Shares, or Pending Claim Stockholder Escrow Amount, if applicable, have been reduced to zero, or all Damages have been satisfied in accordance with this Section 6.4; in such event any remaining Stockholder Escrow Shares shall be released to the Stockholder Representative as set forth in the Escrow Agreement.

The maximum indemnification obligation for which the Stockholder Escrow Amount has been established shall be the amount determined by multiplying the number of shares of Foreign Parent Stock comprising the Stockholder Escrow Fund by the Deemed Value. That maximum indemnification obligation shall reduce, following the Closing Date and until the Stockholder Indemnification Completion Date, on a dollar for dollar basis by the dollar amount of each Damages claim finally determined (by joint written instructions of Foreign Parent and the Stockholder Representative given to the Escrow Agent or by a Final Arbitration Award given to the Escrow Agent), until the remaining indemnification obligation is zero, or until all of the Stockholder Escrow Amount is released in accordance with the Escrow Agreement. The number of shares of Foreign Parent Stock to be issued for each Damages Claim finally determined (by joint written instructions of Foreign Parent and the Stockholder Representative given to the Escrow Agent or by a Final Arbitration Award given to the Escrow Agent) (“Final Claim”) will be calculated by dividing the Final Claim by the Deemed Value of each share of Foreign Parent Stock.

6.5 Tax Indemnity Event Indemnification. Until such date as all of ordinary shares of Foreign Parent held by Xxxxx Xxxxxx and MHS as of immediately following the Closing are available for sale without any restrictions on transfer whether imposed by law or contract and the average daily trading volume of such class of shares on an effective national securities exchange or national market system exceeds 1 million shares for any consecutive three months, Foreign Parent and Parent shall jointly and severally indemnify Xxxxx Xxxxxx, MHS and its partners (collectively, “Tax Indemnified Parties”) against, and hold the Tax Indemnified Parties harmless from, any Taxes together with the costs and expenses, including those of attorneys and accountants, incurred by the Tax Indemnified Parties in connection with the Merger or the other transactions set forth in the Agreement solely to the extent such Taxes, costs and expenses arise due to a “Tax Indemnity Event” as defined below or which are taken to avoid such event; provided, that the Tax Indemnified Parties shall take reasonable actions requested by Foreign Parent to avoid incurring such Tax, so long as the cost of such actions (including professional fees and expenses) together with the Taxes owed do not exceed the Tax Indemnity Cap (and such costs are paid for in advance by Foreign Parent or Parent), including, without limitation, contesting such tax in good faith; provided, further, that Foreign Parent shall have the same rights with respect to the contests described above as the rights that Foreign Parent has with respect to the contests described in Section 5.15(c); provided, further, that the indemnity shall not exceed $500,000 cash (the “Tax Indemnity Cap”). “Tax Indemnity Event” means an event described in the Treasury Regulations section 1.367(a)-8(j)(1) or (2).

6.6 Indemnification Completion Date. No claims may be brought by any Indemnitee against the Indemnifying Party after the Indemnification Completion Date; provided, however, that any claims or Legal Proceedings for which indemnification is sought prior to the Indemnification Completion Date shall remain subject to such indemnification obligation until full resolution of the claim or Legal Proceeding; provided, further, that nothing in this Agreement shall limit the time in which a claim may be brought against Foreign Parent or Parent with respect to a claim arising out of breach of any covenant or obligation of Foreign Parent, Parent or the Surviving Corporation to be performed after the Effective Time; and provided, further, that MHS and Xxxxx Xxxxxx may make a claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 5.5 until the date six (6) months following the Tax Indemnity Event.

6.7 Determination of Damages. For purposes of this Agreement, any determination of Damages shall (a) be reduced (i) by any Tax benefits realized by the indemnified party and (ii) by the amount of any insurance proceeds actually recovered by the indemnified party with respect to such Damages (after reasonable good faith efforts to recover thereon, including filing and diligent pursuit of a claim with the insurer); and (b) exclude all items specified in Section 6.8. The calculation of Damages shall not include damages arising because of a change after Closing in Legal Requirements or accounting policies. To the extent that a claim for indemnification by a Parent Indemnitee hereunder relates to a liability incurred by the Company and there is an accrual on the Unaudited Interim Balance Sheet in respect of such liability, then the determination of Damages in respect of such claim shall be net of such accrual.

6.8 No Special or Punitive Damages. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY ELSEWHERE IN THIS AGREEMENT OR PROVIDED FOR UNDER ANY APPLICABLE LAW, NO PARTY SHALL, IN ANY EVENT, BE LIABLE TO ANY OTHER PERSON, EITHER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, FOR ANY SPECIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES RELATING TO THE BREACH OR ALLEGED BREACH HEREOF, WHETHER OR NOT THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES HAS BEEN DISCLOSED TO THE OTHER PARTY IN ADVANCE OR COULD HAVE BEEN REASONABLY FORESEEN BY SUCH OTHER PARTY.

6.9 Exclusive Remedy. From and after the Effective Time, except for the remedy of specific performance, and except in the case of fraud, willful misconduct or breach of a covenant, or agreement in this Agreement to be performed after the Effective Time, indemnification under this Section 6 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy for any claim or action related to or arising out of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the operations of the Company prior to the Closing, whether such claim or action is based on contract, tort or otherwise. Foreign Parent, Parent, Merger Sub and the Company each hereby waive any provision of any Legal Requirement to the extent that it would limit or restrict the agreement contained in this Section 6.9.

6.10 Purchase Price Adjustment. The issuance of any Stockholder Escrow Shares or Pending Claim Stockholder Excess Amount shall constitute a purchase price adjustment for tax purposes.

6.11 Arbitration Process. If a dispute arises out of the indemnification process, the parties shall use reasonable efforts to cooperate and arrive at a mutually acceptable resolution of the dispute. If the dispute is not resolved within thirty (30) days, the dispute will be submitted to binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under the Commercial Arbitration Rules then in effect. The parties agree that any such controversy shall be submitted to one arbitrator mutually selected by the parties pursuant to the provisions of the American Arbitration Association Commercial Arbitration Rules. In connection with the arbitration hearing, at least seventy-two (72) hours in advance of the arbitration hearing, each party shall prepare its best and final offer to settle the dispute in full (the “Final Offers”) and shall deliver its Final Offer to the other party and the arbitrator. Upon the conclusion of the arbitration hearing, the arbitrator shall and must select the Final Offer proposed by one of the parties with respect to the dispute, without variation, and enter that as the arbitrator’s award. The arbitrator’s award will be final and binding on the parties and is referred to herein as the “Final Arbitration Award”. The parties agree that any arbitration shall be held in Denver, Colorado, and all proceedings in the arbitration will be governed by the substantive laws of the State of Delaware.

The Stockholders shall severally and not jointly (in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares), indemnify and hold harmless Stockholder Representative from and against, compensate it for, reimburse it for and pay any and all losses, liabilities, claims, actions, damages and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, arising out of and in connection with its activities as Stockholder Representative under this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement (the "Representative Losses"), in each case as such Representative Loss is suffered or incurred; provided, that in the event it is finally adjudicated that a Representative Loss or any portion thereof was primarily caused by the gross negligence, fraud, intentional misconduct or bad faith of Stockholder Representative, Stockholder Representative shall reimburse the Stockholders the amount of such indemnified Representative Loss attributable to such gross negligence, fraud, intentional misconduct or bad faith. The Representative Losses shall be satisfied: (i) from the Stockholder Representative Expense Fund; and (ii) to the extent the amount of the Representative Losses exceeds amounts available to Stockholder Representative under (i), from the Stockholders, severally and not jointly (in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares).
