(b) The Neutral Arbitrator will promptly review only those items and amounts specifically set forth and objected to in the Dispute Notice submitted to it and resolve the dispute in accordance with the Accounting Principles; provided, however, that the Neutral Arbitrator will be limited to determining whether the position of the Buyer or the Sellers is, with respect to each specific unresolved item, more accurate and calculated in accordance with the Accounting Principles and, based on such determination, adopting either the position set forth by the Buyer or the position set forth by the Sellers with respect to each specific unresolved item. In resolving such disputes, the Neutral Arbitrator’s authority shall be limited to the correct nature and amount of each item remaining in dispute in accordance with the Accounting Principles, and any dispute among the parties regarding the interpretation of this Agreement and the terms hereof shall be resolved, including through appropriate judicial resolution if necessary, prior to the submission of the dispute to the Neutral Arbitrator. The Buyer and the Sellers must each be afforded an opportunity to provide a written submission in support of its position and to advocate for its position personally before the Neutral Arbitrator. Each of the parties to this Agreement agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Neutral Arbitrator and to cause the Neutral Arbitrator to resolve any dispute as promptly as practicable and, in any event, no later than thirty Business Days after selection of the Neutral Arbitrator. The decision of the Neutral Arbitrator with respect to any such dispute will be final, conclusive and binding on the parties. The fees and expenses of the Neutral Arbitrator will be paid fifty-percent (50%) by the Sellers and fifty-percent (50%) by the Buyer.

2.5.4 Purchase Price Adjustment. Promptly, and in any event no later than the fifth Business Day after determination of the Final Working Capital:

2.6.3 Without in any way limiting the Sellers’ obligations under Sections 2.6.1 or 2.6.2, or Buyer’s remedies, to the extent the Sellers cannot transfer and assign any of the Owned IP, or any portion thereof to the Buyer, as of the Closing, then the Sellers will assign and transfer such Owned IP to the Buyer at the first opportunity to do so. To the extent that any Owned IP cannot be assigned and transferred by the Sellers, then the Sellers hereby grant the Buyer an irrevocable, perpetual, worldwide, fully-paid up, royalty-free, exclusive license, with the right to sublicense through multiple tiers and to enforce, to make, have made, use, sell, offer to sell, import, export, improve, reproduce, distribute, perform, display, transmit, manipulate in any manner, create derivative works based upon, and otherwise practice, exploit or utilize in any manner the Owned IP.

The Buyer and any other applicable withholding agent will be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement (and any other agreement entered into in connection with the Contemplated Transactions) any withholding Taxes or other amounts required under the Code or any applicable Law to be deducted and withheld. To the extent any such amounts are so deducted and withheld and properly paid over to the appropriate Governmental Authority or other appropriate Person, such amounts will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement (and any other agreement entered into in connection with the Contemplated Transactions) as having been paid to the Sellers or any other Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

2.8. Escrow Amount.

2.8.1 On the Closing Date, the Buyer shall deliver to the Escrow Agent, as a deposit to the Escrow Fund, cash in an amount equal to the Escrow Amount from the Purchase Price for the purpose of securing the obligations of the Sellers under Section 6 of this Agreement. The Escrow Fund shall be held by the Escrow Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the terms of the Escrow Agreement. Any amount of the Escrow Amount that is not subject to then outstanding indemnification claims shall be released to the Sellers within five Business Days following December 15, 2018 (the “Escrow Release Date”).

2.8.2 Any income, gains, losses and expenses of the Escrow Fund shall be included by the Buyer as taxable income or loss of the Buyer, and any income and gains of the Escrow Fund shall be available to the Buyer as part of the Escrow Fund, but if not paid to the Buyer in connection with an indemnification claim in accordance with Section 6 shall ultimately be distributable to the Sellers in accordance with this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement. The Escrow Agent shall distribute to the Buyer forty percent (40%) of the taxable income on the Escrow Fund for each calendar quarter on or before the tenth (10^th) calendar day after the end of such quarter (or, if earlier, the date on which all of the remaining Escrow Fund is disbursed to the Sellers), until such time as there is no cash or property in the Escrow Fund.

The Buyer shall deliver the Allocation Schedule as so revised to the Sellers.

EXHIBIT 2.1

(b) any breach or violation of any covenant or agreement of the Sellers (including under this Section 6) in or pursuant to this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement (except for the Transition Services Agreement, ETSA or Sublease);

(d) any accounts receivable as of the Closing (i) from [***] and its Affiliates with respect to which the Buyer has re-worked and shipped parts to [***] as agreed by the Sellers prior to Closing and used collection efforts with respect to such accounts receivable that are consistent with Buyer’s ordinary practice for customers of a similar size or (ii) from [***] and its Affiliates with respect to which the Buyer used collection efforts with respect to such accounts receivable that are consistent with Buyer’s ordinary practice for customers of a similar size, and in the case of each of (i) and (ii), that remain unpaid as of the Escrow Release Date; or

(e) any costs (not including overhead expenses or costs of non-operational employee time spent) in excess of $227,000 in the aggregate incurred by Buyer and its Affiliates related to the matters set forth on Schedule 3.12.

6.1.2 Monetary Limitations. The Sellers will have no obligation to indemnify the Buyer Indemnified Persons pursuant to Section 6.1.1(a) unless the aggregate amount of all such Losses exceeds $320,000 (in which event the Sellers shall only be required to pay or be liable for Losses in excess of such amount) (the “Indemnity Deductible”); provided, however, that the Indemnity Deductible will not apply to (a) claims for indemnification pursuant to Section 6.1.1(a) in respect of breaches of, or inaccuracies in the Seller Fundamental Representations or (b) claims based upon Fraud or willful misconduct. The Sellers’ aggregate liability in respect of claims for indemnification arising from Section 6.1.1(a) will not exceed the Escrow Amount (the “Basic Cap”), provided, however, that the Basic Cap will not apply to (1) claims for indemnification pursuant to Section 6.1.1(a) in respect of breaches of, or inaccuracies in, the Seller Fundamental Representations or (2) claims based upon Fraud or willful misconduct. The Sellers’ aggregate liability in respect of claims for indemnification arising from the breach of, or inaccuracy in, the Seller Fundamental Representations pursuant to Section 6.1.1(a) will not exceed the Purchase Price. Claims for indemnification pursuant to any other provision of Section 6.1.1 are not subject to the monetary limitations set forth in this Section 6.1.2.

and in respect of any and all Losses incurred or suffered by the Seller Indemnified Persons or any of them as a result of, arising out of or relating to:

(a) Any Fraud of the Buyer or any breach of, or inaccuracy in, any representation or warranty made by the Buyer in this Agreement (in each case, as such representation or warranty would read if all qualifications as to materiality were deleted therefrom);

(b) any breach or violation of any covenant or agreement of the Buyer (including under this Section 6) in or pursuant to this Agreement; or

6.2.2 Monetary Limitations. The Buyer will have no obligation to indemnify the Seller Indemnified Persons pursuant to Section 6.2.1(a) unless the aggregate amount of all such Losses exceeds the Indemnity Deductible (in which event the Buyer shall only be required to pay or be liable for Losses in excess of such amount). The Buyer’s aggregate liability in respect of claims for indemnification pursuant to Section 6.2.1(a) will not exceed the Basic Cap.

Claims for indemnification pursuant to any other provision of Section 6.2.1 are not subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 6.2.2.

6.3. Time for Claims. No claim may be made or suit instituted seeking indemnification pursuant to this Section 6, unless a written notice is provided to the Indemnifying Party:

6.4. Third Party Claims.

6.4.1 Notice of Claim. If any third party notifies an Indemnified Party with respect to any matter (a “Third Party Claim”) that may give rise to an Indemnity Claim against an Indemnifying Party under this Section 6, then the Indemnified Party will promptly give written notice to the Indemnifying Party; provided, however, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in notifying the Indemnifying Party will relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligation under this Section 6, except to the extent such delay actually prejudices the Indemnifying Party. 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.

6.4.2 Assumption of Defense, etc. The Indemnifying Party will be entitled to participate in the defense of any Third Party Claim that is the subject of a notice given by the Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 6.4.1. In addition, the Indemnifying Party will have the right to defend the Indemnified Party against the Third Party Claim at its own expense with counsel of its choice reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party so long as (a) the Indemnifying Party gives written notice to the Indemnified Party within fifteen calendar days after the Indemnified Party has given notice of the Third Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party will indemnify the Indemnified Party from and against the entirety of any and all Losses the Indemnified Party may suffer resulting from, arising out of or relating to the Third Party Claim, (b) the Indemnifying Party provides the Indemnified Party with evidence reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying Party will have adequate financial resources to defend against the Third Party Claim and fulfill its indemnification obligations hereunder, (c) the Third Party Claim involves only money damages and does not seek an injunction or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party, (d) the Indemnified Party has not been advised by counsel that an actual or potential conflict exists between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party in connection with the defense of the Third Party Claim, (e) the Third Party Claim does not relate to or otherwise arise in connection with Taxes or any criminal or regulatory enforcement Action, (f) settlement of, an adverse judgment with respect to or the Indemnifying Party’s conduct of the defense of the Third Party Claim is not, in the good faith judgment of the Indemnified Party, likely to be adverse to the Indemnified Party’s reputation or continuing business interests (including its relationships with current or potential customers, members, suppliers or other parties material to the conduct of its business) and (g) the Indemnifying Party conducts the defense of the Third Party Claim actively and diligently. The Indemnified Party may retain separate co-counsel at its sole cost and expense and participate in the defense of the Third Party Claim; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party will pay the fees and expenses of separate co-counsel retained by the Indemnified Party that are incurred prior to Indemnifying Party’s assumption of control of the defense of the Third Party Claim. The Sellers and the Buyer shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any Third Party Claim, including making available (subject to the provisions of Section 5.3) records relating to such Third Party Claim and furnishing, without expense (other than reimbursement of actual out-of-pocket expenses) to the defending party,

-36-

Confidential and Proprietary

EXHIBIT 2.1

management employees of the non-defending party as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of such Third Party Claim.

6.4.3 Limitations on Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party will not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any compromise or settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) unless such judgment, compromise or settlement (a) provides for the payment by the Indemnifying Party of money as sole relief for the claimant, (b) results in the full and general release of the Buyer Indemnified Persons or Seller Indemnified Persons, as applicable, from all liabilities arising or relating to, or in connection with, the Third Party Claim and (c) involves no finding or admission of any violation of laws or the rights of any Person and no effect on any other claims that may be made against the Indemnified Party.

6.4.4 Indemnified Party’s Control. If the Indemnifying Party (a) does not deliver the notice contemplated by clause (a), or the evidence contemplated by clause (b), of Section 6.4.2 within fifteen calendar days after the Indemnified Party has given notice of the Third Party Claim, (b) is not permitted to defend the Indemnified Party against the Third Party Claim pursuant to Section 6.4.2, or (c) otherwise at any time fails to conduct the defense of the Third Party Claim actively and diligently, the Indemnified Party may defend the Third Party Claim in any manner it may deem appropriate. If the Indemnified Party has assumed the defense pursuant to this Section 6.4.4, it shall not agree to any settlement without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). If such notice and evidence is given on a timely basis and the Indemnifying Party conducts the defense of the Third Party Claim actively and diligently but any of the other conditions in Section 6.4.2 is or becomes unsatisfied, the Indemnified Party may defend the Third Party Claim; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party will not be bound by the entry of any such judgment consented to, or any such compromise or settlement effected, without its prior written consent (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). In the event that the Indemnified Party conducts the defense of the Third Party Claim pursuant to this Section 6.4.4, the Indemnifying Party will remain responsible for any and all other Losses that the Indemnified Party may incur or suffer resulting from, arising out of or relating to the Third Party Claim to the fullest extent provided in this Section 6.

6.4.5 Consent to Jurisdiction Regarding Third Party Claim. The Buyer and each of the Sellers, each in its capacity as an Indemnifying Party, hereby consents to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any court in which any Third Party Claim may brought against any Indemnified Party for purposes of any claim which such Indemnified Party may have against such Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Agreement in connection with such Third Party Claim, and in furtherance thereof, the provisions of Section 8.10 are incorporated herein by reference, mutatis mutandis.

6.5. Insurance. Payments by an Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Section 6 in respect of any Loss shall be reduced by the amount of any insurance proceeds received in cash by the

-37-

Confidential and Proprietary

EXHIBIT 2.1

applicable Indemnified Party in the applicable year of such Loss, net of the present value of any reasonably probable increase in insurance premiums or other charges paid or to be paid by such Indemnified Person resulting from such Loss and all costs and expenses incurred by such Indemnified Person in recovering such proceeds from its insurers; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 6.5 shall obligate any Indemnified Party to pursue any insurance claim with respect to any Loss.

6.6. Special Damages. In no event shall any Indemnifying Party be liable to any Indemnified Party for (a) any punitive, incidental, special or indirect damages or (b) any consequential damages, except to the extent such consequential damages are reasonably foreseeable and, in each case, except to the extent actually awarded to a Governmental Authority or other third party.

6.7. Escrow Amount. For as long as a portion of the Escrow Fund is remaining, any and all amounts payable by the Sellers as Indemnifying Parties to a Buyer Indemnified Person will be deducted first from the Escrow Fund, and thereafter paid in cash by the Sellers in accordance with payment instructions provided by the Buyer.

6.8. Exclusive Remedies. Except as provided in Sections 8.11 and 8.14, 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) 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. 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 and as provided in Sections 8.11 and 8.14.

6.9. Knowledge and Investigation. The Buyer’s right to indemnification shall not be affected by any investigation conducted or knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired) by the Buyer or any of its Affiliates at any time with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of, or the compliance with, any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation of the Sellers.

6.10. Tax Treatment. All indemnification and other payments under this Section 6 shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Laws, be treated for income Tax purposes as an adjustment to the purchase price.

7. TAX MATTERS

7.1. Tax Sharing Agreements. All Tax sharing agreements or similar agreements and all powers of attorney that relate in any way to the Acquired Assets shall be terminated prior to the Closing (other than agreements entered into in the Ordinary Course of Business the primary purpose of which was not Tax) and, after the Closing, no such agreement or power of attorney

The Buyer and the Sellers will cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party, in connection with any Tax matters relating to the Business, Acquired Assets and Assumed Liabilities (including by the provision of reasonably relevant records or information, but subject to the last sentence hereof). The party requesting such cooperation will pay the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the other party. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, including Sections 5.9 and 6.4.2, and any other agreement entered into in connection with the Contemplated Transactions, in no event shall the Buyer be required to provide Tax Returns for the Buyer’s Affiliated Group, or disclose any other Tax information in connection with the Buyer’s Affiliated Group, to the Sellers, other than the portions of such that relate solely, in each case, to the Business or the Acquired Assets.

7.5. Apportionment of Ad Valorem Taxes.

7.5.1 All real property Taxes, personal property Taxes, and similar ad valorem obligations levied with respect to the Acquired Assets for a taxable period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date (collectively, the “Apportioned Taxes”) will be apportioned between the Sellers and the Buyer based on the number of days of the taxable period ending on, and including, the Closing Date. The Sellers will be liable for the proportionate amount of Apportioned Taxes attributable to days before or on the Closing Date and the Buyer will be liable for the proportionate amount attributable to days after the Closing Date.

7.5.2 Apportioned Taxes will be timely paid and all applicable filings, reports and returns will be filed as provided by applicable Laws. The paying party will be entitled to reimbursement from the non-paying party in accordance with Section 7.5.1. Upon payment of Apportioned Taxes, the paying party will present a statement to the non-paying party setting forth the amount of the reimbursement to which the paying party is entitled under Section 7.5.1 together with such supporting evidence as is reasonably necessary to calculate the amount to be reimbursed. The non-paying party will reimburse the paying party no later than ten Business Days after the presentation of the statement.

7.6. Tax Certificates. Subject to the application of Section 5.10, the Buyer and the Sellers agree, upon request, to use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any certificate or other documentation from any governmental authority or any other Person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any Tax that could be imposed with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

No party may assign, delegate or otherwise transfer either this Agreement or any of its rights, interests, or obligations hereunder without the prior written approval of the other parties; provided, however, that the Buyer may (a) assign this Agreement and any or all of its rights and interests hereunder to one or more of its Affiliates or designate one or more of its Affiliates to perform its obligations hereunder so long as the Buyer is not relieved of any liability or obligations hereunder, (b) assign this Agreement and any or all of its rights and interest hereunder to any purchaser of all or substantially all its assets or designate such purchaser to perform its obligations hereunder and (c) assign any or all of its rights and interests hereunder to one or more of its Affiliates or to any provider of financing as collateral security; and provided, further, that the Sellers may assign this Agreement and any or all of their rights and interests hereunder to ▇▇▇▇.

8.3. Amendments and Waivers. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement will be valid and binding unless it is in writing and signed, in the case of an amendment, by the Buyer and the Sellers, or in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom the waiver is to be effective. No waiver by any party of any breach or violation or, default under or inaccuracy in any representation, warranty or covenant hereunder, whether intentional or not,

No delay or omission on the part of any party in exercising any right, power or remedy under this Agreement will operate as a waiver thereof.

8.4. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Confidentiality Agreement (as modified by Section 5.3), the other Ancillary Agreements and any documents, instruments and certificates explicitly referred to herein, constitutes the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any and all prior discussions, negotiations, proposals, undertakings, understandings and agreements, whether written or oral, with respect thereto.

8.5. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original, but all of which together will constitute but one and the same instrument. This Agreement will become effective when duly executed by each party hereto. Counterpart signature pages to this Agreement may be delivered by electronic delivery (i.e., by email of a .pdf signature page) and each such counterpart signature page will constitute an original for all purposes.

8.6. Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction will not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction. In the event that any provision hereof would, under applicable Law, be invalid or unenforceable in any respect, each party hereto intends that such provision will be construed by modifying or limiting it so as to be valid and enforceable to the maximum extent compatible with, and possible under, applicable Law.

8.7. Headings. The headings contained in this Agreement are for convenience purposes only and will not in any way affect the meaning or interpretation hereof.

8.8. Construction. The parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement will be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties and no presumption or burden of proof will arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement. The parties intend that each representation, warranty and covenant contained herein will have independent significance. If any party has breached or violated, or if there is an inaccuracy in, any representation, warranty or covenant contained herein in any respect, the fact that there exists another representation, warranty or covenant relating to the same subject matter (regardless of the relative levels of specificity) which the party has not breached or violated, or in respect of which there is not an inaccuracy, will not detract from or mitigate the fact that the party has breached or violated, or there is an inaccuracy in, the first representation, warranty or covenant.

8.9. Governing Law. This Agreement, the rights of the parties and all Actions arising in whole or in part under or in connection herewith, will be governed by and construed in accordance

-42-

Notwithstanding the previous sentence, a party may commence any Action in a court other than the above-named courts solely for the purpose of enforcing an order or judgment issued by one of the above-named courts.

8.10.2 Venue. Each party agrees that for any Action between the parties arising in whole or in part under or in connection with this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement or the Contemplated Transactions, such party bring Actions only in the state or federal courts of Delaware. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, a party may commence any Action in a court other than the above-named courts solely for the purpose of enforcing an order or judgment issued by one of the above-named courts. Each party further waives any claim and will not assert that venue should properly lie in any other location within the selected jurisdiction.

8.10.3 Service of Process. Each party hereby (a) consents to service of process in any Action between the parties arising in whole or in part under or in connection with this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement or the Contemplated Transaction in any manner permitted by Delaware law, (b) agrees that service of process made in accordance with clause (a) or made by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, at its address specified pursuant to Section 8.1, will constitute good and valid service of process in any such Action, and (c) waives and agrees not to assert (by way of motion, as a defense, or otherwise) in any such Action any claim that service of process made in accordance with clause (a) or (b) does not constitute good and valid service of process.

8.11. Specific Performance. Each of the parties acknowledges and agrees that the other parties would be damaged irreparably in the event any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or otherwise are breached or violated.

EXHIBIT 2.1

Accordingly, each of the parties agrees that, without posting bond or other undertaking, the other parties will be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches or violations of the provisions of this Agreement and to enforce specifically this Agreement and the terms and provisions hereof in any Action instituted in any court of the United States or any state thereof having jurisdiction over the parties and the matter in addition to any other remedy to which it may be entitled, at law or in equity. Each party further agrees that, in the event of any action for specific performance in respect of such breach or violation, it will not assert that the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

8.12. Waiver of Jury Trial.
