ARTICLE II

Effect of the Merger on Capital Stock; Exchange

Section 2.01 Effect of the Merger on Capital Stock. At the Effective Time, as a result of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Parent Parties, or the Company or the holder of any capital stock of the Parent Parties, or the Company:

(a) Cancellation of Certain Company Common Stock. Each share of Company Common Stock that is owned by the Company or any of their respective direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiaries as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Cancelled Shares”) will automatically be cancelled and retired and will cease to exist, and no consideration will be delivered in exchange therefor.

(b) Conversion of Company Common Stock. Each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Cancelled Shares) will be converted into the right to receive a Pro Rata Portion of: (i) 5,500,000 newly issued shares of WTRV Common Stock, subject to the Holdback Amount and any deductions therefrom pursuant to this Agreement (the “Parent Share Merger Consideration”); (ii) $1,500,000.00 (the “Cash Merger Consideration”); (iii) any additional shares of WTRV Common Stock in lieu of fractional shares of WTRV Common Stock pursuant to Section 2.01(f); and (iv) any dividends or other distributions to which the holder thereof becomes entitled to upon the surrender of such shares of Company Common Stock in accordance with Section 2.02(g). Collectively, the Parent Share Merger Consideration and the Cash Merger Consideration are referred to herein as the “Merger Consideration.”

(c) Company Preferred Stock. As of the Agreement date there are, and as of the Effective Time there will be, no issued and outstanding shares of Company Preferred Stock.

(d) Delivery of Company Stockholder List; Cancellation of Shares. At least three Business Days prior to the Effective Time, Company shall deliver to Parent a list of the Stockholders as of the Effective Time that sets forth the name, mailing address and email address of each Stockholder along with the number of shares of Company Common Stock to be delivered by each Stockholder and the number of shares of WTRV Common Stock to be received by each Stockholder as such Stockholder’s Pro Rata Portion of the Parent Share Merger Consideration and the amount of cash to be received by each Company Stockholder as such Stockholder’s Pro Rata Portion of the Cash Merger Consideration. The required list is referred to herein as the “Company Stockholder List.” At the Effective Time, all outstanding Company Shares will be cancelled and will cease to exist, and each Stockholder, as a holder of book-entry shares which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented Company Shares (each, a “Book-Entry Share”) will cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive (A) the Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 2.02 hereof, and (B) any additional shares of WTRV Common Stock in lieu of fractional shares of WTRV Common Stock pursuant to Section 2.01(f).

(e) Merger Sub Capital Stock; Surviving Corporation. Each share of common stock of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Merger Sub Common Stock”) shall be owned exclusively by the Parent. At the Effective Time, the Merger Sub shall be merged with and into the Company with the Company to be the Surviving Corporation. Immediately following the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation will own all property, rights, privileges, immunities, powers, franchises, permits, memberships, licenses, and authority of the Company and all debts, liabilities, obligations, restrictions, and duties of the Company shall become the debts, liabilities, obligations, restrictions, and duties of the Surviving Corporation and the Company’s Charter with the State of Delaware will be cancelled and replaced in accordance with Section 1.05. In consideration of the exchange of Company Common Stock for Merger Consideration as set forth herein, the Surviving Corporation will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent who will be the sole stockholder and hold all outstanding shares of Surviving Corporation Common Stock effective at the Effective Time, and the Stockholders will become stockholders of WTRV, collectively owning the WTRV Common Stock that comprised the Parent Share Merger Consideration.

(f) Fractional Shares. No certificates or scrip representing fractional shares of WTRV Common Stock shall be issued upon the conversion of Company Shares pursuant to Section 2.01(b). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each holder of Company Shares converted pursuant to the Merger who would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fraction of a share of WTRV Common Stock (after taking into account all shares of Company Common Stock exchanged by such holder) shall in lieu thereof, upon surrender of such holder’s Book-Entry Shares, receive one whole share of WTRV Common Stock.

Section 2.02 Exchange Procedures.

(a) Parent to Act as Exchange Agent; Exchange Fund. The Company and the Parent shall serve as the exchange agent to pay the Merger Consideration in exchange for the surrendered Book-Entry Shares. At or promptly following the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to: (i) deliver evidence of issuance of shares of WTRV Common Stock to be issued as Parent Share Merger Consideration (including additional shares of WTRV Common Stock sufficient to make payments in lieu of fractional shares pursuant to Section 2.01(f)) in book-entry form to the Stockholders or to the Company to in turn transfer to the Stockholders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Portion of such Parent Share Merger Consideration; and (ii) deliver to the Company sufficient funds for the Cash Merger Consideration, which the Company will in turn deliver to the Stockholders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Portion of such Cash Merger Consideration.

(b) Procedures for Surrender; No Interest. Promptly after the Effective Time, the Company will send to each record holder of Company Shares at the Effective Time whose Company Shares were converted pursuant to Section 2.01(b) into the right to receive the Merger Consideration notice of the Closing, the delivery of which shall be effected, and risk of loss and title shall pass, only upon proper transfer of the Book-Entry Shares to the Parent in an exempt nonpublic transaction under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities Act”) (including Rule 506 (b) of Regulation D under the Securities Act). Each holder of Company Shares that have been converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration shall be entitled to receive the Merger Consideration into which such Company Shares have been converted pursuant to Section 2.01(b) and (c) in respect of the Company Shares represented by Book-Entry Share, including any additional shares of WTRV Common Stock in lieu of fractional shares which the holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.01(f). No interest shall be paid or accrued upon the surrender or transfer of any Book-Entry Share. Upon issuance of the Parent Share Merger Consideration and payment of the Cash Merger Consideration to the Company pursuant to the provisions of this Article II, each Book-Entry Share or Book-Entry Shares so surrendered or transferred, as the case may be, shall immediately be cancelled.

(c) Payments to Non-Registered Holders. If any portion of the Merger Consideration is to be paid to a Person other than the Person in whose name the transferred Book-Entry Share is registered, it shall be a condition to such payment that: (i) such Book-Entry Share shall be properly transferred; and (ii) the Person requesting such payment shall pay to the Parent any transfer or other Tax required as a result of such payment to a Person other than the registered holder of such Book-Entry Share, as applicable, or establish to the reasonable satisfaction of the Parent that such Tax has been paid or is not payable.

(d) Full Satisfaction. All Merger Consideration paid upon the transfer of Book-Entry Shares in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the Company Shares formerly represented by such Book-Entry Shares, and from and after the Effective Time, there shall be no further registration of transfers of Company Shares on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation. If, after the Effective Time, Book-Entry Shares are presented to the Surviving Corporation, they shall be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this ARTICLE II.

(e) Distributions with Respect to Unsurrendered Company Shares. All shares of WTRV Common Stock to be issued pursuant to the Merger shall be deemed issued and outstanding as of the Effective Time and whenever a dividend or other distribution is declared by WTRV in respect of the WTRV Common Stock, the record date for which is after the Effective Time, that declaration shall include dividends or other distributions in respect of all shares issuable pursuant to this Agreement. No dividends or other distributions in respect of the WTRV Common Stock shall be paid to any holder of any unsurrendered Company Shares until the Book-Entry Share is surrendered for exchange in accordance with this Section 2.02. Subject to the effect of applicable Laws, following such surrender, there shall be issued or paid to the holder of record of the whole shares of WTRV Common Stock issued in exchange for Company Shares in accordance with this Section 2.02, without interest: (i) at the time of such surrender, the dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore payable with respect to such whole shares of WTRV Common Stock and not paid; and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the dividends or other distributions payable with respect to such whole shares of WTRV Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time but with a payment date subsequent to surrender.

Section 2.03 Adjustments. Without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, if at any time during the period between the Agreement Date and the Effective Time, any change in the outstanding Company Shares or the WTRV Common Stock shall occur, including by reason of any reclassification, recapitalization, stock split (including a reverse stock split), or combination, exchange, readjustment of shares, or similar transaction, or any stock dividend or distribution paid in stock, any amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect such change; provided, however, that this sentence shall not be construed to permit the Parent Parties or the Company to take any action with respect to its securities that is prohibited by the terms of this Agreement.

Section 2.04 Withholding Rights. Each of the Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable to any Person pursuant to this ARTICLE II such amounts as may be required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under any Tax Laws. To the extent that amounts are so deducted and withheld by the Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which the Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, made such deduction and withholding.

Section 2.05 Termination of Stock Options and Other Matters.

(a) Company Stock Options. As of the Effective Time, the Company shall cause each option to acquire shares of Company Common Stock (each, a “Company Stock Option”) that is outstanding under any Company’s 2022 Omnibus Incentive Plan or outside of such plan immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether or not then vested or exercisable, to be exercised or exchanged for Company Common Stock or otherwise cancelled (collectively, the “Option Terminations”).

(b) Resolutions and Other Company Actions. At or prior to the Effective Time, (i) the Company, the Company Board, and the compensation committee of such board, as applicable, shall adopt any resolutions and take any actions (including obtaining any employee consents) and execute such documents or agreements with holders of Company Stock Options that may be necessary to effectuate the provisions of this Section 2.05; and (ii) the Company shall have repurchased all outstanding shares of Company Common Stock or Company Equity Awards held by any Person who does not meet the definition of an “accredited investor” under Rule 506 of Regulation D under the Securities Act.

Section 2.06 Tax Treatment. The Merger is intended to qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder, and this Agreement is intended to constitute a “plan of reorganization” for purposes of Sections 354 and 361 of the Code and within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Sections 1.368-2(g) and 1.368-3. The Parties will prepare and file all Tax Returns consistent with the treatment as a reorganization and will not take any inconsistent position on any Tax Return or during the course of any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes, except as otherwise required by a determination within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code.

Section 2.07 Appraisal Rights. Dissenting stockholders of Company shall have the appraisal rights accorded to them under the DGCL. The holders of Company Shares shall be advised of their statutory appraisal’s rights and provided a copy of the statutes setting forth their appraisal’s rights as set forth in the DGCL. Shares of Company Capital Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by a holder who is entitled to demand and has properly exercised appraisal rights with respect to such shares in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL (such shares of Company Capital Stock being referred to collectively as the “Dissenting Shares” until such time as such holder (each a “Dissenting Stockholder”) fails to perfect or otherwise waives, withdraws or loses such holder’s appraisal rights under the DGCL with respect to such shares) shall not be converted into the right to receive the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration, but instead shall be entitled to only such rights as are granted by Section 262 of the DGCL to such Dissenting Stockholder; provided, that if, after the Effective Time, such Dissenting Stockholder fails to perfect, waives, withdraws or otherwise loses his dissenters’ rights pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL or if a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that such Dissenting Stockholder is not entitled to the relief provided by Section 262 of the DGCL or in the event that the dissenter’s rights are not exercised by the holder, are otherwise not prosecuted to a conclusion, or are dismissed for any other reason then, and in that event, the holder of such Company Shares shall no longer be deemed to a Dissenting Stockholder and such shares of Company Capital Stock shall be deemed to have been converted, as of the Effective Time, into the right to receive the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 2.1 above, without interest thereon, upon transfer of such Book-Entry Shares. Prior to the Closing, the Company shall give Parent (i) prompt notice of any demands for appraisal received by the Company and any withdrawals of such demands, and (ii) the opportunity to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to demands for appraisal under the DGCL. The Company shall not, except after consultation with Parent, make any payment with respect to any demands for appraisal or offer to settle or settle any such demands.

Section 2.08. True Up. At least three days prior to the Closing Date, the Company and the Majority Stockholder shall provide an estimate of the Company’s Working Capital dated as of the Closing Date (the “Estimated Working Capital”). Within 90 days following the Closing, the Company and Parent shall provide, and the parties shall review, the Company’s Working Capital as of the Closing Date calculated by Parent and the Company and prepared in accordance with GAAP for the purpose of determining the Working Capital of the Company as of the Closing Date (the “Closing Working Capital”). To the extent that the Estimated Working Capital is greater than the Closing Working Capital, Parent shall remove from the Holdback Amount a number of shares of WTRV Common Stock equal to the excess out of (and up to) the Holdback Amount in accordance with the Stockholders’ respective Pro Rata Portions within five days of such determination and, to the extent that the Estimated Working Capital is less than the Closing Working Capital, the Stockholders shall surrender to Parent and forfeit an amount of the Merger Consideration equal to such deficiency out of (and up to) the Holdback Amount determined based on each Stockholders’ Pro Rata Portion, and the WTRV Common Stock representing such deficiency shall be cancelled. To the extent the Holdback Amount is insufficient to cover the entirety of such deficiency, the Majority Stockholder shall pay the difference to Parent within five days of such determination. Any such payment under this Section 2.08 is referred to elsewhere in this Agreement as the “True Up.” Any payments made pursuant to the True Up shall be treated as an adjustment to the Merger Consideration by the parties for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.

To the extent the parties have a dispute or disagreement regarding the Working Capital provided for hereunder, Parent and the Majority Stockholder shall select an accounting firm, provided that such audit firm is a Public Company Accounting Oversight Board member firm (the “Accounting Firm”) (or if such Accounting Firm is unavailable for such purpose, another Accounting Firm mutually agreed to by Parent and the Majority Stockholder), to determine the Company’s Working Capital as of the Closing Date. The determination shall serve as the conclusive resolution of such dispute or disagreement. In the event the parties cannot agree on an Accounting Firm, each of the Majority Stockholder and the Parent shall select an Accounting Firm, and the two Accounting Firms shall mutually select and determine a third Accounting Firm to serve as the Accounting Firm for purposes of this Section 2.08, such selected Accounting Firm’s determination to be conclusive and binding on the parties.

For purposes of this Section 2.08, the term “Working Capital” means for the Company the current assets minus the sum of (i) the current Liabilities (as defined) and (ii) long-term indebtedness.

The Company has all requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and to perform its obligations under this Agreement including, in the case of the consummation of the Merger, adoption of this Agreement by the affirmative consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Company Common Stock (the “Requisite Company Stockholder Consent”), to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company and no other corporate proceedings on the part of the Company are necessary to authorize the execution and delivery of this Agreement or to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby. The Requisite Company Stockholder Consent is the only consent of the holders of any class or series of the Company’s capital stock necessary to approve and adopt this Agreement, approve the Merger, and consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Company and holders constituting the Requisite Company Stockholder Consent and, assuming due execution and delivery by the Parent Parties, constitutes the legal, valid, and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, and other similar Laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, by general principles of equity and insofar as the provisions relating to indemnification may be unenforceable.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnification obligations of the Majority Stockholder under this Section 6.05(b) shall apply without regard to the Majority Stockholder’s Pro Rata Portion.

(c) Indemnification By the Stockholders. Each Stockholder, severally and not jointly, shall indemnify and defend each Parent Indemnitee against, and shall hold each of them harmless from and against, and shall pay and reimburse each of them for, any and all Losses incurred or sustained by, or imposed upon, the Parent Indemnitees based upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason of:

(e) For purposes of this Section 6.05 any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty, and any Losses arising therefrom, shall be determined without regard to any materiality, Material Adverse Effect or other similar qualification contained in or otherwise applicable to such representation or warranty.

(f) Indemnification Procedures. The party making a claim under this Section 6.05 is referred to as the “Indemnified Party”, and the party against whom such claims are asserted under this Section 6.05 is referred to as the “Indemnifying Party”. For purposes of this Section 6.05, (i) if Parent (or any other Parent Indemnitee) comprises the Indemnified Party, any references to Indemnifying Party (except provisions relating to an obligation to make payments) shall be deemed to refer to Majority Stockholder, and (ii) if Parent comprises the Indemnifying Party, any references to the Indemnified Party shall be deemed to refer to Majority Stockholder. Any payment received by the Majority Stockholder as the Indemnified Party shall be distributed to the Stockholders based on their respective Pro Rata Portions.

(g) Third Party Claims. If any Indemnified Party receives notice of the assertion or commencement of any Action made or brought by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of a party to this Agreement or a Representative of the foregoing (a “Third Party Claim”) against such Indemnified Party with respect to which the Indemnifying Party is obligated to provide indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than 30 days after receipt of such notice of such Third Party Claim. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Third Party Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in, or by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party, to assume the defense of any Third Party Claim at the Indemnifying Party’s expense and by the Indemnifying Party’s own counsel, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in good faith in such defense; provided, that if the Indemnifying Party is a Stockholder, such Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to defend or direct the defense of any such Third Party Claim that (x) is asserted directly by or on behalf of a Person that is a customer or supplier of the Company, or (y) seeks an injunction or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Parties. In the event that the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, subject to Section 6.05(f), it shall have the right to take such action as it deems necessary in the name and on behalf of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense of any Third Party Claim with counsel selected by it subject to the Indemnifying Party’s right to control the defense thereof. The fees and disbursements of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party, provided, that if in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Indemnifying Party, (A) there are legal defenses available to an Indemnified Party that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party; or (B) there exists a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party that cannot be waived, the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of one law firm representing the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to compromise or defend such Third Party Claim, fails to promptly notify the Indemnified Party in writing of its election to defend as provided in this Agreement, or fails to diligently prosecute the defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may, subject to Section 6.05(f), pay, compromise, defend such Third Party Claim and seek indemnification for any and all Losses based upon, arising from or relating to such Third Party Claim. The Majority Stockholder and Parent shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any Third Party Claim, including making available records relating to such Third Party Claim and furnishing, without expense (other than reimbursement of actual out-of-pocket expenses) to the defending party, management employees of the non-defending party as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of such Third Party Claim.

(h) Settlement of Third Party Claims. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Indemnifying each Party may settle any Third Party Claim as long as the Indemnified Party receives an unconditional release from all liabilities and obligations in connection with such Third Party Claim.

(i) Direct Claims. Any Action by an Indemnified Party on account of a Loss which does not result from a Third Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”) shall be asserted by the Indemnified Party giving the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than 30 days after the Indemnified Party becomes aware of such Direct Claim. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Direct Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have 30 days after its receipt of such notice to respond in writing to such Direct Claim. The Indemnified Party shall allow the Indemnifying Party and its professional advisors to investigate the matter or circumstance alleged to give rise to the Direct Claim, and whether and to what extent any amount is payable in respect of the Direct Claim and the Indemnified Party shall assist the Indemnifying Party’s investigation by giving such information and assistance (including access to the Parent or Surviving Corporation.

(j) Payments; Holdback Amount.

(i) Once a Loss is agreed to by the Indemnifying Party or finally adjudicated to be payable pursuant to this Section 6.05, the Indemnifying Party shall satisfy its obligations within 10 days of such final, non-appealable adjudication by wire transfer of immediately available funds. The parties hereto agree that should an Indemnifying Party not make full payment of any such obligations within such 10 day period, any amount payable shall accrue interest from and including the date of agreement of the Indemnifying Party or final, non-appealable adjudication to and including the date such payment has been made at a rate per annum equal to the post-judgment interest rate specified by applicable Law, except to the extent that interest accrues earlier under applicable law.

(ii) Any Losses payable to a Parent Indemnitee pursuant to this Section 6.05 shall be satisfied: (A) first, from the Holdback Amount; and (B) to the extent the amount of Losses exceeds the amounts available to the Parent Indemnitee in the Holdback Amount, from the Majority Stockholder.

(iii) The Stockholders acknowledge that part of the Parent Share Merger Consideration consists of the Holdback Amount. The stock transfer records of WTRV shall reflect that a portion of each Stockholder’s Holdback Amount is subject to restrictions as provided in this Agreement. On the 12-month anniversary of the Closing Date (or if such date is not a Business Day, the first Business Day immediately following such date, such period referred to herein as the “Holdback Period”), the Parent shall make payment by removal of the restriction from shares of WTRV Common Stock issued to each Stockholder based on such Stockholder’s Pro Rata Portion in an amount (the “Holdback Disbursement”) equal to the balance of the Holdback Amount after deducting (i) the amount of all claims theretofore resolved in favor of the Parent Indemnitees pursuant to Section 2.08 and this Section 6.05, and (ii) the amount of any unresolved claims specified in any Claim Notice theretofore delivered to the Majority Stockholder prior to termination of the Holdback Period (the “Unresolved Claims Amount”), which Unresolved Claims Amount shall remain with Parent until such claims have been resolved. As each such claim is resolved (such resolution to be evidenced by the written agreement of the applicable Parent Indemnitees and Indemnifying Parties or the final, non-appealable adjudication of the court), and within five Business Days thereafter, the Parent shall remove the restriction as to each Stockholder of shares of WTRV Common Stock based on such Stockholder’s Pro Rata Portion in an amount (an “Additional Holdback Disbursement”) equal to the balance of the Unresolved Claims Amount after deducting the amount of all such claims resolved in favor of the Parent Indemnitees and any remaining unresolved claims.

(k) Holdback Share Value. The Holdback Shares shall have an ascribed value per share for purposes of indemnification and any other payments therefrom under this Agreement equal to the lower of (1) the 10-day VWAP and (2) 50% of the last sale price reported by the Trading Market immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(l) Stockholder Pro Rata Portions. Except with respect to a breach of a representation or a warranty under Article V, the Stockholders’ relative indemnification obligations under this Agreement shall be determined in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Portions. Provided, however, that the foregoing limitation does not apply to the Majority Stockholder in connection with any breach of a representation or warranty contained in Article III.

(m) Exclusive Remedies. Subject to Section 8.13, the parties acknowledge and agree that their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims (other than claims arising from fraud, or willful misconduct on the part of a party hereto in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) 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 Section 6.05. 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 Section 6.05. Nothing in this Section 6.05 shall limit any Person’s right to seek and obtain any equitable relief to which any Person shall be entitled or to seek any remedy on account of any Party’s fraud or willful misconduct.

(n) Certain Other Matters. Each Party acknowledges that it has had the opportunity to conduct a due diligence investigation about the counter Party(ies), and in no event shall a Party have any liability to the counter Party(ies) with respect to a breach of representation, warranty or covenant under this Agreement to the extent that such Party knew of such breach as of the Closing Date.

Section 6.07. Non-Compete; Non-Solicitation.

(a) Non-Compete; Non-Solicitation.

(i) The Majority Stockholder acknowledges the highly competitive nature of the business of the Company and accordingly agrees that, in connection with the Merger, which will result in the acquisition by Parent of the Company’s business and assets, including its goodwill and customer relationships, Intellectual Property and proprietary information, which Parent consider to be valuable assets necessary for the Company to continue to operate its business following the Closing, and in exchange for the Merger Consideration payable to the Majority Stockholder at Closing plus such additional Merger Consideration as may be payable to the Majority Stockholder following the Closing pursuant to Section 2.08, which Merger Consideration shall constitute full consideration for the covenants and restrictions set forth herein, the Majority Stockholder agrees, for a period of three years from the Closing Date (the “Restricted Period”) not to engage in Prohibited Activity within the United States. For purposes of this Section 6.07, “Prohibited Activity” means any activity in which the Majority Stockholder, directly or indirectly: (A) contributes their skills, in whole or in part, as an employee, employer, owner, operator, manager, advisor, consultant, agent, employee, partner, director, stockholder, officer, or any other similar capacity to any Person established or engaged in the business of the provision of environmental consulting and related services, (B) solicits the customers of the Company (1) not to conduct business with the Company, (2) to reduce the amount of business it conducts with the Company or (3) to purchase products or services from any business which competes with the Company in the provision of environmental consulting and related services, (C) solicits the employees of the Company to leave the employ of the Company, or (D) uses or discloses any trade secrets, proprietary information, or confidential information of the Company and its business. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the Majority Stockholder from purchasing or owning less than 5% of the publicly-traded securities of any entity, provided that such ownership represents a passive investment and that the Majority Stockholder is not a controlling person of, or a member of a group that controls, such entity or from making generalized searches for employees by the use of advertisements in the media or by retaining search firms to engage in generalized searches for employees not otherwise in contravention of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.

(b) The Majority Stockholder acknowledges that the restrictions contained in this Section 6.07 are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate business interests of Parent and constitute a material inducement to Parent to enter into this Agreement and consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In the event that any covenant contained in this Section 6.07 should ever be adjudicated to exceed the time, geographic, product or service, or other limitations permitted by applicable Law in any jurisdiction or any order of an applicable Governmental Authority, then any court is expressly empowered to reform such covenant in such jurisdiction to the maximum time, geographic, product or service, or other limitations permitted by applicable Law. The covenants contained in this Section 6.07 and each provision hereof are severable and distinct covenants and provisions. The invalidity or unenforceability of any such covenant or provision as written shall not invalidate or render unenforceable the remaining covenants or provisions hereof, and any such invalidity or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such covenant or provision in any other jurisdiction.

For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 6.07 is subject to the governing law, exclusive jurisdiction and venue provisions of Sections 8.04 and 8.05 of this Agreement and shall be reviewed and interpreted only under the Laws and by the courts set forth in Sections 8.04 and 8.05.
