At or prior to the Effective Time, the Company, the Company Board and the compensation committee of the Company Board, as applicable, shall adopt any resolutions and take, or cause to be taken, any actions which are necessary or advisable to effectuate the provisions of this Section 3.2.

Section 3.3 Warrants. At the Effective Time, each outstanding Company Warrant shall, in accordance with its terms, automatically and without any required action on the part of the holder thereof, cease to represent a Company Warrant in respect of Company Common Stock and shall become a Company Warrant exercisable for Merger Consideration. If a holder properly exercises a Company Warrant within thirty (30) days following the public disclosure of the consummation of the Merger pursuant to a current report on Form 8-K, the Warrant Price, as defined in the Warrant Agreement, with respect to such exercise shall be reduced by an amount (in dollars and in no event less than zero) equal to the difference of (a) the Warrant Price in effect prior to such reduction minus (b) (i) Merger Consideration minus (ii) the Black-Scholes Warrant Value (as defined in the Warrant Agreement).

Section 3.4 Payment for Securities.

(a) Paying Agent; Exchange Fund. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall enter into an agreement with an entity designated by Parent and reasonably acceptable to the Company to act as paying agent for the holders of Company Common Stock (other than the holders of Dissenting Shares) in connection with the Merger (the “Paying Agent”) for purposes of paying the applicable Merger Consideration upon delivery of the applicable Certificates or Uncertificated Shares, as applicable, in accordance with this Section 3.4. On the Closing Date and substantially concurrently with the occurrence of the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Paying Agent, for the benefit of the holders of shares of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (excluding any shares of Company Common Stock described in Section 3.1(a)(iii) and Dissenting Shares), an amount in cash sufficient to pay the aggregate Merger Consideration payable in respect of such shares of Company Common Stock (such cash being hereinafter referred to as the “Exchange Fund”). Parent agrees to make available, directly or indirectly, to the Paying Agent from time to time as needed additional cash sufficient to pay any Merger Consideration in respect of shares of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time that cease to constitute Dissenting Shares hereunder. The Paying Agent shall, pursuant to irrevocable instructions, deliver the Merger Consideration contemplated to be issued in exchange for shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement out of the Exchange Fund. Except as contemplated by this Section 3.4(a), the Exchange Fund shall not be used for any other purpose. The Surviving Corporation shall pay all charges and expenses, including those of the Paying Agent, in connection with the exchange of shares of Company Common Stock for the Merger Consideration. Any income or interest from investment of the Exchange Fund will be payable to Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as Parent directs.

(b) Payment Procedures. Promptly following the Effective Time, and in any event not more than three (3) Business Days thereafter, Parent and the Surviving Corporation will cause the Paying Agent to mail to each holder of record (or in the case any holders of Uncertificated Shares held through the Depository Trust Company, then to the Depository Trust Company) (as of immediately prior to the Effective Time) of (i) a certificate or certificates that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding shares of Company Common Stock (other than Dissenting Shares and shares of Company Common Stock described in Section 3.1(a)(iii)) (the “Certificates”); and (ii) uncertificated or book-entry shares of Company Common Stock that represented outstanding shares of Company Common Stock (other than Dissenting Shares and shares of Company Common Stock described in Section 3.1(a)(iii)) (the “Uncertificated Shares”), (A) a letter of transmittal in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company and Parent (which will specify that delivery will be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates will pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates to the Paying Agent); and (B) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates and Uncertificated Shares in exchange for the Merger Consideration payable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 3.1(a)(ii). Upon surrender of Certificates for cancellation to the Paying Agent, together with such letter of transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, the holders of such Certificates will be entitled to receive, and the Paying Agent shall promptly pay, in exchange therefor, an amount in cash equal to the Merger Consideration payable in respect of the number of shares of Company Common Stock represented by such Certificate, and the Certificates so surrendered will forthwith be canceled. Upon receipt of an “agent’s message” by the Paying Agent (or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the Paying Agent may reasonably request) in the case of a book-entry transfer of Uncertificated Shares, together with such letter of transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, the holders of such Uncertificated Shares will be entitled to receive, and the Paying Agent shall promptly pay, in exchange therefor, an amount in cash equal to the Merger Consideration payable in respect of the number of shares of Company Common Stock represented by such holder’s transferred Uncertificated Shares, and the transferred Uncertificated Shares so surrendered will be canceled. The Paying Agent will accept such Certificates and transferred Uncertificated Shares upon compliance with such reasonable terms and conditions as the Paying Agent may impose to cause an orderly exchange thereof in accordance with normal exchange practices. No interest will be paid or accrued for the benefit of holders of the Certificates and Uncertificated Shares on the Merger Consideration payable upon the surrender of such Certificates and Uncertificated Shares. Until so surrendered, outstanding Certificates and Uncertificated Shares will be deemed from and after the Effective Time to evidence only the right to receive the Merger Consideration, without interest thereon, payable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 3.1(a)(ii).

(c) Termination Rights. All Merger Consideration paid upon the surrender of and in exchange for shares of Company Common Stock in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such Company Common Stock, subject, however, to Section 3.5. At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation shall be automatically deemed to closed, and there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation of the shares of Company Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates or Uncertificated Shares are presented to the Surviving Corporation for any reason, they shall be canceled and exchanged for the Merger Consideration payable in respect of the shares of Company Common Stock previously represented by such Certificates or Uncertificated Shares (other than Certificates or Uncertificated Shares evidencing shares of Company Common Stock described in Section 3.1(b)), without any interest thereon.

(d) Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains undistributed to the former stockholders of the Company on the date that is twelve (12) months after the Closing Date shall be delivered to the Surviving Corporation, upon demand, and any former holders of shares of Company Common Stock who have not theretofore received the Merger Consideration, without interest thereon, shall thereafter look only to the Surviving Corporation and Parent (as general unsecured creditors) for payment of their claim, in respect of such shares.

(e) No Liability. None of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company, the Surviving Corporation, the Paying Agent or any of their Affiliates shall be liable to any Person in respect of any cash held in the Exchange Fund delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. If any Certificate or Uncertificated Shares shall not have been surrendered immediately prior to the date on which any cash in respect of such Certificate or Uncertificated Shares would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Entity, any such cash in respect of such Certificate or Uncertificated Shares shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of the Surviving Corporation, free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(f) Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. If any Certificate (other than a Certificate evidencing shares of Company Common Stock described in Section 3.1(a)(iii)) shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, in a form reasonably satisfactory to Parent and, if applicable, the Paying Agent, and, if reasonably required by Parent or the Surviving Corporation, the posting by such Person of a bond in such reasonable amount as Parent or the Surviving Corporation may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Paying Agent shall pay in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the Merger Consideration payable in respect of the shares of Company Common Stock formerly represented by such Certificate, without any interest thereon.

Section 3.5 Dissenter’s Rights. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, shares of Company Common Stock that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and that are held by holders of such shares who have not voted in favor of the adoption and approval of this Agreement and the Transactions, including the Merger, or consented thereto in writing and who have properly exercised and validly perfected appraisal rights with respect thereto in accordance with, and who have complied with, Section 262 of the DGCL (the “Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, and holders of such Dissenting Shares shall be entitled to receive payment of the fair value of such Dissenting Shares, in accordance with, but only if and when required by, the provisions of such Section 262, unless and until any such holder fails to perfect or effectively withdraws or loses its rights to appraisal and payment under the DGCL. If, after the Effective Time, any such holder fails to perfect or effectively withdraws or loses such rights, such Dissenting Shares will thereupon be treated as if they had been converted into, at the Effective Time, the right to receive the Merger Consideration, without any interest thereon, on the terms and subject to the conditions in this Agreement and shall no longer constitute Dissenting Shares hereunder. At the Effective Time, any holder of Dissenting Shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto other than such rights as are provided to holders of Dissenting Shares pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL. The Company shall give Parent (i) prompt written notice of any demands received by the Company for appraisals of shares of Company Common Stock, withdrawals of such demands and any other instruments relating to appraisal demands received by the Company pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL and (ii) the opportunity to participate, at Parent’s sole expense, in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands and the Company shall consider in good faith comments or suggestions proposed by Parent with respect to such demands; provided that, after the date hereof until the Effective Time, the Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent, make any payment with respect to any demands for appraisal or offer to settle or settle any such demands or waive any failure to timely deliver a written demand for appraisal or otherwise to comply with Section 262 of the DGCL.

Section 3.6 No Dividends or Distributions. No dividends or other distributions with respect to capital stock of the Surviving Corporation with a record date on or after the Effective Time will be paid to the holder of any Certificates or Uncertificated Shares.

Section 3.7 Withholding Taxes. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, each of Parent, the Company, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation, the Paying Agent and any of their Affiliates shall be entitled to deduct and withhold (or cause to be deducted and withheld) from the amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement (including to any holder of Company Common Stock or holder of equity or equity-based awards under the Company Stock Plans pursuant to this Agreement) such amounts as are required to be deducted or withheld with respect to the making of such payments under applicable Law. To the extent that amounts are so deducted or withheld, such deducted or withheld amounts shall be timely paid over to the appropriate Governmental Entity and shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction or withholding was made.

(e) Parent and Merger Sub shall not, and shall cause their respective Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, acquire or invest in any Person or acquire, lease or license any assets, or agreeing to do any of the foregoing, if doing so would reasonably be expected to materially impair or materially delay the ability to or the time period to (i) obtain the Regulatory Approvals, (ii) obtain all actions or nonactions, expirations or terminations of waiting periods, authorizations and orders of Governmental Entities necessary for the consummation of the Transactions or (iii) satisfy any of the conditions set forth in Article VII or consummate the Transactions.

(g) Fee Reimbursement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (x) the Company may adjourn or postpone the Company Stockholders Meeting (A) with the written consent of Parent, (B) after consultation with Parent, to the extent determined in good faith to be necessary to ensure that any supplement or amendment to the Proxy Statement is, if required by applicable Law, provided to the Company’s stockholders within a reasonable amount of time in advance of the Company Stockholders Meeting, or (C) if, as of the time for which the Company Stockholders Meeting is scheduled, there are insufficient shares of Company Common Stock represented (either in person or by proxy) to constitute a quorum for purposes of the Company Stockholder Meeting; provided, however, that the Company may not, without the prior written consent of Parent, adjourn or postpone the Company Stockholder Meeting more than a total of three (3) times, and no such postponement or adjournment shall be, without the prior written consent of Parent, for a period exceeding ten (10) Business Days, and (y) the Company shall adjourn or postpone the Company Stockholders Meeting promptly following the written request of Parent due to a circumstance described in the preceding clause (x)(B) (as reasonably determined by Parent), the preceding clause (x)(C) or to allow additional solicitation of votes in order to obtain the Company Stockholder Approval; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated adjourn or postpone the Company Stockholder Meeting more than a total of three (3) times or for a period exceeding ten (10) Business Days.

Section 6.10 Indemnification; Directors’ and Officers’ Insurance.

(a) Without limiting any additional rights that any director, officer, trustee, employee, agent, or fiduciary may have under any employment or indemnification agreement made available to Parent or under the Company’s Organizational Documents, or, if applicable, a Company Subsidiary’s Organizational Documents, for a period of six (6) years after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to: (i) indemnify and hold harmless each person who is now, or has been or becomes at any time prior to the Effective Time, an officer or director of the Company or any Company Subsidiary and also with respect to any such Person, by reason of the fact such Person is or was a director, officer, employee, member, trustee or fiduciary of another corporation, foundation, partnership, joint venture, trust, pension or other Benefit Plan or enterprise (regardless of whether such other entity or enterprise is affiliated with the Company) serving at the request of or on behalf of the Company or any Company Subsidiary and together with such Person’s heirs, executors or administrators (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law in connection with any Proceeding and any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, reasonable and out-of-pocket costs, Indemnification Expenses, Judgments, fines, penalties and amounts paid in settlement (including all interest, assessments and other charges paid or payable in connection with or in respect of any thereof) resulting from his or her service as such prior to the Effective Time; and (ii) as promptly as practicable pay on behalf of or, within twenty (20) days after any written request for advancement, advance to each of the Indemnified Parties, any Indemnification Expenses incurred in defending, serving as a witness with respect to or otherwise participating with respect to any Proceeding in which the Indemnified Party is involved by reason of such Indemnified Party’s status as such in advance of the final disposition of such Proceeding, including payment on behalf of or advancement to the Indemnified Party of any Indemnification Expenses incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with enforcing any rights with respect to such indemnification or advancement, in each case without the requirement of any bond or other similar understanding, subject to the immediately subsequent provisions; provided, however, that the payment of any Indemnification Expenses incurred by an Indemnified Party in advance of the final disposition of a Proceeding shall be made, unless otherwise agreed by the Surviving Company, only upon delivery to the Surviving Corporation of an undertaking by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party to repay all amounts so paid in advance if it shall ultimately be determined as set forth in a final, non-appealable Judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction that such Indemnified Party is not entitled to be indemnified pursuant to this Section 6.10. The indemnification and advancement obligations of the Surviving Corporation pursuant to this Section 6.10 shall only apply to acts or omissions occurring at or before the Effective Time in an Indemnified Party’s capacity as such and any Proceeding relating thereto (including with respect to any acts or omissions, in his or her capacity as such, occurring in connection with the approval of this Agreement and the consummation of the Transactions, including the consideration and approval thereof and the process undertaken in connection therewith and any Proceeding relating thereto) and all rights to indemnification and advancement conferred hereunder continue as to any Indemnified Party who has ceased to be a director or officer of the Company or any Company Subsidiary after the date of this Agreement and inure to the benefit of such person’s heirs, executors and personal and legal representatives. Any Indemnified Party wishing to claim indemnification or advancement of expenses under this Section 6.10(a), upon learning of any such Proceeding, shall promptly notify the Surviving Corporation in writing (but the failure so to notify shall not relieve a party from any obligations that it may have under this Section 6.10(a), except to the extent such failure prejudices such party’s position with respect to such claims) and shall reasonably cooperate (subject to, for the avoidance of doubt, his or her indemnification and expense advancement rights in this Section 6.10(a)) with the Surviving Corporation and its Affiliates in connection with any such Proceeding. As used in this Section 6.10(a): the term “Indemnification Expenses” means reasonable and documented out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees and expenses and all other reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs, expenses and obligations (including reasonable and documented out-of-pocket experts’ fees, travel expenses, court costs, retainers, transcript fees, duplicating, printing and binding costs, as well as telecommunications, postage and courier charges) paid or incurred in connection with investigating, defending, being a witness in or participating in (including on appeal), or preparing to investigate, defend, be a witness in or participate in, any Proceeding for which indemnification is required to be provided pursuant to this Section 6.10(a), including any Proceeding relating to a claim for indemnification or advancement to which an Indemnified Party is entitled under this Section 6.10(a) brought by an Indemnified Party. The Surviving Corporation will not settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any Judgment in any actual or threatened Proceeding in respect of which indemnification has been or is entitled to be sought by such Indemnified Party hereunder unless such settlement, compromise or Judgment includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such Proceeding without admission or finding of wrongdoing, or such Indemnified Party otherwise consents in writing in advance thereto (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). For the avoidance of doubt, subject to the immediately preceding sentence, the Surviving Corporation or its Affiliates shall be entitled to control the defense and settlement of any Proceeding relating to a claim for indemnification or advancement by an Indemnified Party.

(b) Without limiting the foregoing, Parent and Merger Sub agree that all rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation from liabilities for acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time now existing in favor of the Indemnified Parties as provided in the Company’s Organizational Documents or the Company Subsidiaries’ Organizational Documents will be assumed by the Surviving Corporation in the Merger, without further action, at the Effective Time and will survive the Merger and continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms; provided that this clause (b) shall in no event affect or otherwise limit the ability to amend or modify the Organizational Documents of the Surviving Corporation, except to the extent it would adversely affect any such rights during the six (6) year period after the Effective Time.

(c) Parent, Merger Sub and the Company hereby acknowledge (on behalf of themselves and their respective Subsidiaries) that the Indemnified Parties under this Section 6.10 may have certain rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and insurance provided by Company stockholders or other Affiliates of the Company stockholders or their respective equityholders (“Indemnitee Affiliates”) separate from the indemnification obligations of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries hereunder. The Parties hereby agree (i) that the Company and the Company Subsidiaries are the indemnitors of first resort with respect to such matters (i.e., their obligations to the indemnified Parties under this Section 6.10 are primary and any obligation of any Indemnitee Affiliate to advance expenses or to provide indemnification for the same expenses or liabilities incurred by the Indemnified Parties under this Section 6.10 are secondary), (ii) that the Company and the Company Subsidiaries shall be required to advance the full amount of expenses incurred with respect to such matters by the Indemnified Parties under this Section 6.10 and shall be liable for the full amount of all such liabilities, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement to the extent legally permitted, without regard to any rights the Indemnified Parties under this Section 6.10 may have against any Indemnitee Affiliate and (iii) that the Parties (on behalf of themselves and their respective Subsidiaries) irrevocably waive, relinquish and release the Indemnitee Affiliates from any and all claims against the Indemnitee Affiliates for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect thereof with respect to any indemnifiable losses under this Section 6.10.

(e) Parent shall, on behalf of the Company, on or prior to the Effective Time, purchase a 6-year tail policy with respect to acts or omissions occurring or alleged to have occurred prior to the Effective Time that were committed or alleged to have been committed by such Indemnified Parties in coverage and amount no greater than the policies currently in place so long as the total premiums paid would not exceed 300% of the last annual premiums paid for the Company’s directors’ and officers’ liability and fiduciary liability insurance policies in effect as of the date hereof.

(f) If, during the six (6) year period after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation or any of its respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges with or into any other person and is not the continuing or surviving corporation, partnership or other entity of such consolidation or merger, or (ii) transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any person, then, and in each such case, the Surviving Corporation shall use reasonable best efforts to make proper provision so that, to the extent the Surviving Corporation is no longer in existence or such assumption does not happen by operation of Law, the successors and assigns of the Surviving Corporation assume the obligations set forth in this Section 6.10.

(g) This Section 6.10 survives the consummation of the Merger and is intended to be for the benefit of, and to be enforceable by, the Indemnified Parties and their respective heirs and personal representatives during the six (6) year period after the Effective Time, and the applicable provisions hereof will be binding on Parent, the Surviving Corporation and their respective successors and assigns. The rights of each Indemnified Party hereunder shall be in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other rights such person may have under the Company’s Organizational Documents and the Company Subsidiaries’ Organizational Documents, any other indemnification arrangement set forth on Section 6.10(a) of the Company Disclosure Letter or any Law or otherwise. The obligations of Parent, the Surviving Corporation and the Company Subsidiaries under this Section 6.10 shall not be terminated or modified in any manner as to adversely affect, in any material respect, an Indemnified Party without the consent of such Indemnified Party during the six (6) year period after the Effective Time.

Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in no event shall the aggregate monetary liability of the Parent or any of its Affiliates relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, other than in the case of an intentional and material breach of this Agreement by Parent or Merger Sub, exceed $43,000,000 if the Effective Time does not occur; provided that in the case of an intentional and material breach of this Agreement by Parent or Merger Sub such aggregate liability shall instead not exceed $430,000,000.

Section 8.3 Fees.

(a) If this Agreement validly terminated by the Company pursuant to Section 8.1(i) or by Parent pursuant to Section 8.1(k), then the Company shall pay or cause to be paid to Parent $11,493,750 (the “Termination Fee”) at or prior to such termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(i) or within two (2) Business Days of such termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(k), as applicable; provided, however, that if this Agreement is validly terminated by the Company before the applicable Cut-Off Time pursuant to Section 8.1(i) in order to enter into a Company Superior Proposal with an Excluded Party, the “Termination Fee” shall be $7,662,500 (instead of $11,493,750). If (i) this Agreement is validly terminated by Parent pursuant to Section 8.1(c) or Section 8.1(e), by either the Company or Parent pursuant to Section 8.1(h), by the Company pursuant to Section 8.1(g) or by Parent pursuant to Section 8.1(g) (and at the time of such termination the Company was in breach in any material respect of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements hereunder), (ii) after the date hereof and prior to the termination of this Agreement, a Company Acquisition Proposal shall have been publicly made, disclosed or become known and (iii) within twelve (12) months following the date this Agreement is so terminated the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (or any Affiliates or successors thereto) shall have entered into a definitive agreement with respect to or consummated any such Company Acquisition Proposal, then the Company shall pay or cause to be paid to Parent the Termination Fee at or prior to, and as a condition precedent to, the earlier of the entry into such agreement and the consummation of such Company Acquisition Proposal. Any payment of the Termination Fee or other amounts to Parent under this Section 8.3 will be made in cash by wire transfer of same day funds to the account(s) designated in writing by Parent.

(b) Each of the Parties acknowledges that the provisions of this Section 8.3 are an integral part of the Transactions and that, without these agreements, the Other Party would not enter into this Agreement. If the Company fails to pay any amount due by it when required pursuant to this Section 8.3, interest shall accrue on such amount from the date such payment was required to be paid pursuant to the terms of this Agreement until the date of payment at the prime rate set forth in The Wall Street Journal in effect on the date such payment was required to be made. If, in order to obtain any such payment that is due and owing, Parent commences a Proceeding or it or its Affiliates otherwise incur any fees, costs or expenses, then the Company shall pay Parent and its Affiliates their out-of-pocket fees, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred in connection with such Proceeding or otherwise to obtain such payment.

(c) In no event shall Parent be entitled to receive more than one payment of the Termination Fee in connection with this Agreement. In the event that the Termination Fee is payable pursuant to the first sentence of Section 8.3(a), the Termination Fee, together with any other amounts due and owing pursuant to Section 8.3(b), shall be the sole and exclusive monetary remedy of Parent, Merger Sub and their Affiliates against the Company and any of its former, current and future Affiliates, and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, stockholders, controlling persons or Representatives for any loss or damage based upon, arising out of or relating to the Merger, the Transactions, this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements or the negotiation, execution or performance hereof of thereof or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, and in the event that the Termination Fee is payable pursuant to the second sentence of Section 8.3(a), (i) from and after such time, the Termination Fee, together with any other amounts due and owing pursuant to Section 8.3(b), shall be the sole and exclusive monetary remedy of Parent, Merger Sub and their Affiliates against the Company and any of its former, current and future Affiliates, and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, stockholders, controlling persons or Representatives for any loss or damage based upon, arising out of or relating to the Merger, the Transactions, this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements or the negotiation, execution or performance hereof of thereof or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby and (ii) if Parent has received any payments from the Company in respect of a breach of this Agreement prior to such time, then the amount of the Termination Fee payable by the Company shall be reduced (not, for the avoidance of doubt, below zero) by the amount of such payments made by the Company to Parent as of such time.

(d) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each Party shall pay its own expenses incident to preparing for, entering into and carrying out this Agreement and the consummation of the Transactions; provided that Parent shall be responsible for the payment of any filing fees under the HSR Act, and the Company shall be responsible for all SEC filings fees and the costs of preparing, printing and mailing the Proxy Statement.

Article IX
Miscellaneous

Section 9.1 Amendments and Waivers.

(a) At any time prior to the Effective Time, any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived by any party hereto only by action taken or authorized by or on behalf of such party’s Board of Directors, but in all cases only if such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed, in the case of an amendment, by each party to this Agreement or, in the case of a waiver, by each party against whom the waiver is to be effective; provided, however, that without the further approval of the stockholders of the Company, no such amendment shall be made or given after obtaining the Company Stockholder Approval that requires the approval of the stockholders of the Company under the DGCL or in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Nasdaq unless the required further approval is obtained.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no failure or delay by the Company or Parent in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any other right hereunder. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by applicable Law.

Section 9.2 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which is an original, and all of which, when taken together, constitute one Agreement.

Otherwise, any such notice, request or communication shall be deemed not to have been received until the next succeeding Business Day in the place of receipt.

Section 9.4 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned, in whole or in part, by operation of Law or otherwise, by any of the Parties without the prior written consent of the Other Party; provided, that Parent or Merger Sub may assign its rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement, in whole or in part without the prior written consent of the Other Party, to (a) any of its or its Affiliates’ financing sources at or after the Effective Time for collateral purposes or (b) after the Effective Time, to any acquirer of all or a material portion of the assets or equity interests of Parent or the Company (regardless of how structured); provided that any assignment by Parent or Merger Sub shall not relieve Parent or Merger Sub of its obligations hereunder except to the extent actually performed. Any purported assignment not permitted under this Section 9.4 shall be null and void.

Section 9.5 Entire Understanding; No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement, together with the Confidentiality Agreement and any other documents and instruments executed pursuant hereto, constitutes the entire agreement and understanding of the Parties with respect to the matters therein and herein and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings on such matters. The provisions of this Agreement are binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties hereto and, subject to Section 9.4, their respective successors and assigns. No provision of this Agreement is intended to confer any rights, benefits, remedies, obligations or liabilities hereunder upon any Person other than the Parties hereto and their respective successors except following the Effective Time, (i) as provided in Section 6.10 (which will be to the benefit of the Persons referred to in such Section), (ii) the rights of holders of Company Common Stock to receive the Merger Consideration and (iii) the rights of holders of Company Warrants, Company Options, Company RSUs and Company PSUs to receive such amounts as provided for in this Agreement; provided, however, that, subject to Section 8.2 and otherwise on the terms and subject to the conditions herein, the Company shall have the right to pursue damages (including damages based on the amounts that would have otherwise been payable to holders of the Company Common Stock, Company Warrants, Company Options, Company RSUs and Company PSUs) in the name of and on behalf of such persons in the event of any breach by Parent or Merger Sub of this Agreement or in the event of fraud, which right is hereby acknowledged and agreed to by Parent and Merger Sub.

Section 9.6 Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction will, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective only to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability, without affecting in any way the remaining provisions of this Agreement in such jurisdiction or rendering that or any other provision of this Agreement invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any other jurisdiction. If a final Judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable, the Parties agree that the court making such determination shall have the power to limit such term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases or to replace such term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the economic, business or other intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Agreement shall be valid and enforceable as so modified. In the event such court does not exercise the power granted to it in the prior sentence, the Parties agree to replace such invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a valid and enforceable term or provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such invalid or unenforceable term or provision.

Section 9.7 Governing Law; Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a) This Agreement, and all claims or causes of action (whether at Law, in contract or in tort or otherwise) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of law thereof that would result in the application of any other jurisdiction’s Laws.

(b) The Parties irrevocably submit to the jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, if the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware lacks jurisdiction over such matter, the Superior Court of the State of Delaware and the federal courts of the United States of America located in the State of Delaware) (the “Chosen Court”) in connection with any dispute that arises in respect of this Agreement and the documents referred to in this Agreement or in respect of the Transactions, and hereby waive, and agree not to assert, as a defense in any action, suit or proceeding for interpretation or enforcement hereof or any such document that it is not subject thereto or that such action, suit or proceeding may not be brought or is not maintainable in said courts or that venue thereof may not be appropriate or that this Agreement or any such document may not be enforced in or by such courts, and the Parties irrevocably agree that all claims with respect to such action, suit or proceeding shall be heard and determined exclusively by such a Delaware state or federal court. The Parties hereby consent to and grant any such court jurisdiction over the person of such parties and over the subject matter of such dispute and agree that mailing of process or other papers in connection with such action, suit or proceeding in the manner provided in Section 9.3 or in such other manner as may be permitted by Law shall be valid and sufficient service thereof.

(c) EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH SUCH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (I) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER; (II) SUCH PARTY UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THE FOREGOING WAIVER; (III) SUCH PARTY MAKES THE FOREGOING WAIVER VOLUNTARILY AND (IV) SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVER AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 9.7.

Section 9.8 No Recourse. This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claims or causes of action that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement or the Transactions, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement, may only be made against the entities that are expressly identified as Parties hereto and no past, present or future Affiliate, director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, manager, partner, stockholder, agent, attorney or Representative of any Party hereto has or shall have any liability for any obligations or liabilities of the Parties or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, the Transactions.

Section 9.9 Specific Performance; Other Remedies.

(a) The Parties agree that irreparable damage, for which monetary damages or other legal remedies would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached by the Parties. It is accordingly agreed, subject to Section 9.9(b), that the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, or any other appropriate form of specific performance or equitable relief, to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in the Chosen Court, without proof of damages or otherwise, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. Each Party agrees not to raise any objections to the availability of the equitable remedy of specific performance and further agrees not to assert that a remedy of specific enforcement is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to Law or inequitable for any reason, nor to assert that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy for any such breach. Each Party further agrees that neither the Other Party nor any other Person shall be required to obtain, furnish or post any bond or similar instrument in connection with or as a condition to obtaining any remedy referred to in this Section 9.9, and each Party irrevocably waives any right it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing or posting of any such bond or similar instrument. If the Company or Parent or Merger Sub, as applicable, brings any action to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions of this Agreement by Parent and Merger Sub (in the case of the Company) or the Company (in the case of Parent or Merger Sub), the Outside Date shall automatically be extended by the amount of time during which such action is pending before the Chosen Court, plus (x) if the Chosen Court has awarded specific performance hereunder to force Parent and Merger Sub or the Company, as applicable, to consummate the Closing, such additional time until Parent and Merger Sub or the Company have consummated the Closing or (y) if the Chosen Court has awarded monetary damages in lieu of specific performance to force Parent and Merger Sub to consummate the Closing, such additional time for Parent to elect to consummate, and to consummate, the Closing or pay such monetary damages pursuant to Section 9.9(c) below.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (x) it is acknowledged and agreed that Parent has an obligation hereunder to cause the Financing to be funded on the terms and subject to the conditions herein, including by exercising its rights under the Equity Commitment Letter, and the right of the Company to specific performance in connection with enforcing such obligation of Parent and the Company’s third-party beneficiary rights under the Equity Commitment Letter will be subject to the requirements that (i) all of the conditions set forth in Section 7.1 and Section 7.3 have been satisfied or waived (other than those closing conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions at the Closing), (ii) Parent or Merger Sub have failed to consummate the Merger on the later of the date required pursuant to Section 2.2 and two (2) Business Days after the delivery of the notice described in clause (iii), and (iii) the Company has irrevocably confirmed to Parent and Merger Sub in writing that the Company is ready, willing and able to consummate the Merger and all of the conditions to the Closing set forth in Section 7.1 and Section 7.2 have been satisfied or irrevocably waived (other than any such conditions which by their nature cannot be satisfied until the Closing and would, if the Closing occurred as of such date, be capable of being satisfied); provided, however, that, for the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall any amounts be funded under or in respect of the Equity Commitment Letter unless the Effective Time shall occur substantially concurrently with such funding, and (y) the Company hereby agrees that specific performance shall be the Company’s sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any breach or failure (or alleged breach or failure) to consummate the Merger by Parent or Merger Sub, except in the circumstances provided in Section 9.9(c). Subject to clause (y) of the preceding sentence, the election to pursue an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief shall not restrict, impair or otherwise limit the Company, on the one hand, or Parent, on the other hand, from, in the alternative, seeking to terminate the Agreement and pursuing any other remedy available at law or equity.

(c) If the Chosen Court has, pursuant to a final order, declined to specifically enforce the obligations of Parent and Merger Sub to consummate the Merger pursuant to a claim for specific performance brought against Parent and Merger Sub pursuant to this Section 9.9 and has instead granted an award of damages in favor of the Company against Parent or Merger Sub, then the Company may enforce such award and accept damages if, and only if, within fourteen (14) days following the granting of such monetary damages award by the Chosen Court, Parent has not elected by written notice to the Company to consummate the Merger and, subject to the Company’s compliance with the immediately subsequent sentence, Parent and Merger Sub do not consummate the Merger within five (5) Business Days of such election, at which time this Agreement shall be deemed to be automatically terminated pursuant to Section 8.1(a). In the event that the Parent elects to consummate the Merger pursuant to the preceding sentence, then the Company hereby agrees to, and shall, consummate the Merger within the five (5) Business Day period provided in the preceding sentence. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company may petition the Chosen Court for an order to specifically force the other Parties to consummate the Merger hereunder, along with monetary damages as alternative recourse so long as the Company agrees that an order to specifically force the other Parties to consummate the Merger is its primary remedy and monetary damages are appropriate only if such court declines to award an order to specifically force the other Parties to consummate the Closing and that such monetary damages are only payable in the express circumstances provided in this Section 9.9(c).

Section 9.10 Tax Matters. All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other similar Taxes and fees (including penalties and interest) incurred by the Company or the Company Subsidiaries in connection with the Merger shall be paid by the Surviving Corporation or the Company Subsidiaries, as applicable, when due and expressly shall not be a liability of the holders of Company Common Stock; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, that any Taxes imposed on a holder of Company Common Stock, Company Warrants, Company Options, Company RSUs, Company PSUs or other interest in the Company on its income or gains as a result of the Transactions, including the Merger, shall be for the account of the applicable holder of Company Common Stock, Company Warrants, Company Options, Company RSUs, Company PSUs, or any other interest in the Company. On or prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to Parent a certification from the Company pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.1445-2(c) dated no more than thirty (30) days prior to the Closing Date and signed by a responsible corporate officer of the Company, together with a signed notice as contemplated by Treasury Regulation Section 1.897-2(h), which Parent shall be entitled to file with the Internal Revenue Service after the Closing.

Section 9.11 Survival. None of the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or in any certificates or other documents delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the Effective Time, except for those representations and warranties set forth in Section 4.25 and Section 5.13 shall survive the Effective Time in accordance with their terms. The covenants and agreements of the Parties (including the Surviving Corporation) that by their terms contemplate performance after the Effective Time shall survive the Effective Time and all other covenants or agreements of the Parties contained in this Agreement shall not survive the Effective Time.
