PURCHASE PRICE

2.1

Purchase Price

The Purchase Price shall be $30,400,000.00, plus the First Earnout Payment (if any), plus the Final Earnout Payment (if any), plus or minus, as applicable, the adjustments contemplated in Section 2.1(b).

(a) (i) At the Closing Time, the Shareholders shall deliver to the Buyer certificates evidencing all the Shares, duly endorsed in blank for transfer, the Company and the Shareholders shall deliver such documents as are required or contemplated to be delivered by the Company, the Shareholders or Company’s counsel pursuant to this Agreement, and (ii) On the Closing Date, the Buyer will deliver to the Shareholders $30,400,000.00, consisting of: (A) cash in the amount of $25,600,000.00 to the Shareholders; and (B) 48,668 share of SPS Common Stock shall be delivered by the Buyer to the Escrow Agent, to be held in escrow pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement (such shares held by the Escrow Agent from time to time, the “Escrow Shares”).

(b) Within ninety (90) days of the Closing Date, the Buyer will cause the Company to furnish to the Shareholders the Closing Date Financial Statements showing, in reasonable detail, Buyer’s calculation of Net Working Capital. If within thirty (30) days following the delivery of the Closing Date Financial Statements (or such shorter time if the Shareholders affirmatively state in writing that they

- 13 -

accept the Closing Date Financial Statements without objection), the Shareholders have not given the Buyer notice of objection to the Closing Date Financial Statements (such notice must contain a statement of the basis of the Shareholders’ objection and the Shareholders’ best estimate of the proper Net Working Capital as of the Closing Date), the Closing Date Financial Statements (containing the Closing Date Balance Sheet) shall conclusively be presumed and deemed to be accepted by the Shareholders.

(i) If the Shareholders give the Buyer such notice of objection, the Parties hereto shall use their commercial best efforts to resolve the dispute. To this effect, they shall consult and negotiate with each other in good faith and, recognizing their mutual interests, attempt to reach a just and equitable resolution satisfactory to both Parties.

(ii) If they do not reach such resolution within a period of thirty (30) days of receipt by the Buyer of the aforementioned objection notice, then, upon notice by either Party to the other in accordance with the notice provisions of this Agreement, an objection relating to the Company’s accounting methods and procedures (in this Section, a “Closing Date Financial Statements Dispute”) shall be submitted to Deloitte LLP, chartered accountants in Toronto, Ontario (the “Accountants”), as an expert and not an arbitrator, for resolution. Unless otherwise waived by Buyer, failure to submit a Closing Date Financial Statements Dispute to the Accountants within the required thirty (30) days shall conclusively be deemed to be an acceptance by the Shareholders of the validity of the Closing Date Financial Statements.

(iii) If a Closing Date Financial Statements Dispute is submitted to the Accountants for resolution (in this Section, the “Submission”), each Party will furnish to the Accountants such work papers and other documents and information relating to the disputed issues as the Accountants may request within forty-five (45) days of such request, and are available to that Party or its subsidiaries (or its independent public accountants), and each Party will be afforded the opportunity to present to the Accountants any material relating to the determination and to discuss the determination with the Accountants. Any default by a Party in providing the Accountants with material requested and in such Party’s control within forty-five (45) days of the Accountant’s request shall result in the non-defaulting Party’s position in respect of the Closing Date Financial Statements Dispute becoming the final binding determination of the Accountants. The determination by the Accountants, as set forth in a notice delivered to the Parties by the Accountants, will be binding and conclusive on the Parties. Failure of the Accountants to render a decision within ninety (90) days after the Submission shall cause the Closing Date Financial Statements Dispute to be submitted to mediation in accordance with Subsection (v) below. On the tenth (10th) Business Day following the final determination of the Accountants, the Buyer or the Shareholders will pay the excess or shortfall of Net Working Capital in relation to the Target Working Capital, as the case may be, in accordance with Section 2.1(c). The Accountants shall determine which Party or Parties shall each bear the fees and expenses of the Accountants in relation to a dispute process conducted under this Section 2.1(b).

(iv) Except as provided herein, no civil action with respect to any Closing Date Financial Statements Dispute (or the failure of the Accountants to render a timely determination) may be commenced until the matter has been submitted to a mediator at Arbitration Place in Toronto as agreed by the Parties or such other entity as agreed by the Parties, acting reasonably, (the “Mediator”) in Toronto, Ontario for mediation. Either Party may commence mediation by providing to the Mediator and the other Party, a written request for mediation, setting forth the subject of the dispute and the relief requested. The Parties will cooperate with the Mediator and with one another in selecting a single mediator from a panel of neutrals recommended by the Mediator, and in scheduling the mediation proceedings. The Parties covenant that they will participate in the mediation in good faith, and that they will share equally in its costs. All offers, promises, conduct and statements, whether oral or written, made in the course of the mediation by any of the Parties, their agents, employees, experts and attorneys, and by the Mediator and

- 14 -

any related employees, are confidential, privileged and inadmissible for any purpose, including impeachment, in any litigation or other proceeding involving the Parties, provided that evidence that is otherwise admissible or discoverable shall not be rendered inadmissible or non-discoverable as a result of its use in the mediation. Neither Party may commence a civil action with respect to the matters submitted to mediation until after the completion of the initial mediation session, or forty-five (45) days after the date of filing the written request for mediation, whichever occurs last.

(v) Where there is a Closing Date Financial Statements Dispute between the Parties, the Buyer or the Shareholders, as applicable, shall pay to the other Party any amounts not in dispute in accordance with Section 2.1(b) not more than one hundred thirty (130) days following the Closing Date, which one hundred thirty (130) day limit represents the ninety (90) days for delivery of the Closing Date Financial Statements, the thirty (30) days for delivery of a Closing Date Working Capital Dispute, and ten (10) days for payment to be made.

(c) As used herein, “Net Working Capital” shall be defined as current assets of the Company, including cash, Accounts Receivable, inventories and prepaid expenses, minus current and long term liabilities of the Company, including accounts payable, accrued liabilities, deferred revenue, EHT payable, accrued employee bonuses, loyalty bonuses described on Schedule 3.1.15, payroll clearing, GST/HST payable and unearned revenue, but excluding any debt or any transaction liabilities to be paid at the closing via the flow-of-funds on the Closing Date Balance Sheet, determined in accordance with GAAP on a basis consistently applied. For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of calculating Net Working Capital, costs for labor that are not directly spent on development activities or costs that are incurred that do not improve the functionality of a solution, including time spent planning, designing, fixing bugs or maintaining solutions, will be expensed and not capitalized. However, to the extent that GAAP differs, GAAP will apply. Any excess Net Working Capital over $Nil ($0.00) (the “Target Working Capital”) shall increase the Purchase Price on a dollar-for-dollar basis and shall be paid by the Buyer to the Shareholders in cash, within ten (10) days of the final determination of Net Working Capital, without interest, and any shortfall in Net Working Capital below Target Working Capital shall decrease the Purchase Price on a dollar-for-dollar basis and shall be paid by the Shareholders to the Buyer in cash within ten (10) days of the final determination of Net Working Capital, without interest.

(d) No later than July 31, 2016, Buyer will (i) deliver to Shareholder Representative a written schedule setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of the First Earnout Payment, and (ii) issue the requisite number of shares of SPS Common Stock to the Shareholders. No later than January 31, 2017, Buyer will (i) deliver to Shareholder Representative a written schedule setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of the Final Earnout Payment, and (ii) issue the requisite number of shares of SPS Common Stock to the Shareholders that were not already issued pursuant to the foregoing sentence. For the avoidance of doubt, the First Earnout Payment and the Final Earnout Payment, in the aggregate, shall in no event exceed 16,222 shares of SPS Common Stock. “First Earnout Payment” and “Final Earnout Payment” have the meanings ascribed to such terms in Schedule 2.1(d).

Notice of Third Party Claims

Such notice to the Indemnifier shall describe the Third Party Claim in reasonable detail and shall indicate, if reasonably practicable, the estimated amount of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party.

5.6

Defence of Third Party Claims

The Indemnifier may participate in or assume the defence of any Third Party Claim by giving notice to that effect to the Indemnified Party not later than thirty (30) days after receiving notice of that Third Party Claim (the “Notice Period”). The Indemnifier’s right to do so shall be subject to the rights of any insurer or other party who has potential Liability in respect of that Third Party Claim. The Indemnifier agrees to pay all of its own expenses of participating in or assuming such defence. The Indemnified Party shall co-operate in good faith in the defence of each Third Party Claim, even if the defence has been assumed by the Indemnifier and may participate in such defence assisted by counsel of its own choice at its own expense. The Indemnifier shall not enter into any compromise or settlement of any Third Party Claim without obtaining the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnified Party has not received notice within the Notice Period that the Indemnifier has elected to assume the defence of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may, at its option, elect to settle or compromise the Third Party Claim or assume such defence, assisted by counsel of its own choosing and the Indemnifier shall be liable for all reasonable costs and expenses paid or incurred in connection therewith and any Loss suffered or incurred by the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party Claim.

(b) all documents, records and other materials in the possession of such Party reasonably required by the Defending Party for its use in defending any Third Party Claim,

and shall otherwise cooperate with the Defending Party. The Indemnifier shall be responsible for all reasonable expenses associated with making such documents, records and materials available and for all reasonable expenses of any employees made available by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifier hereunder, which expense shall not exceed the actual cost to the Indemnified Party associated with such employees.

5.8

Settlement of Third Party Claims

If an Indemnifier elects to assume the defence of any Third Party Claim as provided in Section 5.6, the Indemnifier shall not be liable for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defence of such Third Party Claim. However, if the Indemnifier fails to take reasonable steps necessary to defend diligently such Third Party Claim within thirty (30) days after receiving notice from the Indemnified Party that the Indemnified Party bona fide believes on reasonable grounds that the Indemnifier has failed to take such steps, the Indemnified Party may, at its option, elect to assume the defence of and to compromise or settle the Third Party Claim assisted by counsel of its own choosing and the Indemnifier shall be liable for all reasonable costs and expenses paid or incurred in connection therewith. Without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifier shall not enter into any compromise or settlement of any Third Party Claim which would lead to Liability or create any financial or other material obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party or its Affiliates.

5.9

Direct Claims

Any Direct Claim shall be asserted by giving the Indemnifier reasonably prompt written notice thereof. The Indemnifier shall then have a period of thirty (30) days within which to respond in writing to such Direct Claim. If the Indemnifier does not so respond within such thirty (30) day period, the Indemnifier shall be deemed to have rejected such Claim, and in such event the Indemnified Party shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to the Indemnified Party.

5.10

Failure to Give Timely Notice

A failure to give timely notice as provided in this Article 5 shall not affect the rights or obligations of any Party except and only to the extent that, as a result of such failure, any Party which was entitled to receive such notice was deprived of its right to recover any payment under its applicable insurance coverage or was otherwise directly and materially damaged as a result of such failure.

5.11

Reductions and Subrogation

If the amount of any Loss at any time subsequent to the making of an Indemnity Payment is reduced pursuant to any claim, recovery, settlement or payment by or against any other Person, the amount of such reduction (less any costs or expenses (including Taxes) incurred in connection therewith) shall promptly be repaid by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifier. Upon making a full Indemnity Payment, the

- 48 -

Indemnifier shall, to the extent of such Indemnity Payment, be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Party against any third party that is not an Affiliate or customer of the Indemnified Party in respect of the Loss to which the Indemnity Payment relates but only if the Indemnifier shall then be in compliance with its obligations under this Agreement in respect of such Loss. Until the Indemnified Party recovers full payment of its Loss, any and all claims of the Indemnifier against any such third party on account of such Indemnity Payment shall be postponed and subordinated in right of payment to the Indemnified Party’s rights against such third party. Without limiting the generality or effect of any other provision hereof, the Indemnified Party and Indemnifier shall duly execute upon request all instruments reasonably necessary to evidence and perfect such postponement and subordination.

5.12

Payment and Interest

All Losses shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Prime Rate, calculated and payable monthly, both before and after judgment, with interest on overdue interest at the same rate, from the date that the Indemnified Party disbursed funds, suffered damages or losses or incurred a loss, Liability or expense in respect of a Loss, to the date of payment by the Indemnifier to the Indemnified Party.

5.13

Limitations on Indemnification Rights

The respective indemnification obligations of the Shareholders and Buyer under this Article 5 are subject to the following limitations:

(a) subject to Section 5.13(b), the obligations of the Shareholders and the Buyer with respect to any Claims based on any incorrectness in or breach of the representations and warranties set out in Section 3.1 or Section 3.2, as applicable, shall terminate upon expiration of the survival periods set forth in Section 3.6;

(b) there shall be no limitation on the respective obligations of the Shareholders and Buyer, as the case maybe, with respect to Special Representations or Claims based on fraud;

(c) subject to Section 5.13(b), the maximum aggregate liability of the Shareholders with respect to any and all Claims for indemnification made pursuant to Section 5.2(a) and/or Section 5.2(b) shall in no event exceed: (i) $4,800,000.00 for Claims made during the period from the Closing Date through the six (6) month anniversary of Closing; and $3,200,000.00 for Claims made during the period from and after the six (6) month anniversary of the Closing Date (except to the extent of Claims made under Section 5.2(a) and/or Section 5.2(b) on or prior to the six (6) month anniversary of the Closing Date);

(d) subject to Section 5.13(b), no Claim may be made against the Shareholders for indemnity hereunder until such time as the aggregate liability of the Shareholders under this Agreement for all Losses suffered exceeds $100,000.00, but where such de minimus threshold is reached the Shareholders shall be liable back to the first dollar of Loss; and

(e) the Parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, except with respect to Special Representations or Claims based on fraud or willful misconduct, the indemnification provisions in this Article 5 shall be the exclusive remedy of the Parties for any and all Losses with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

- 49 -

5.14

No Double Recovery

For clarity, and subject to the limitations set out in this Agreement, where a single Loss is created by the breach of more than one representation, warranty, covenant or other basis for a Claim, the aggregate amount of such Loss shall be recoverable only once from the Indemnifier, without double recovery.

Such filing shall be in form and substance satisfactory to the Buyer and shall be subject to the Buyer’s prior written approval, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Company shall be entitled to and may withhold from the Shareholders a reasonable amount for the SRED credit actually received pursuant to the foregoing in order to cover the income Taxes associated with receiving the credit, with a final adjustment to be made once applicable tax returns are filed. Subject to the foregoing, within five (5) Business Days following delivery of a SRED credit payment to the Company that is in respect of costs incurred, in whole or in part, for the period prior to Closing, the Company shall pay to the Shareholders the net after Tax proceeds actually received or credited under such SRED credit in respect of the period prior to Closing, with a final adjustment to be made once the applicable tax returns have been filed. For greater certainty, any SRED grants that may be available for research and development undertaken by the Company for the period following the Closing shall be the sole and exclusive property of the Company.
