AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER

THIS AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of May 2, 2017, by and among Blitz 17-655 SE, a European stock corporation (Societas Europaea, SE) with corporate seat in Germany (“New Parent”), Affinitas GmbH, a German limited company (“Riesling” and together with New Parent, “Parent”), Chardonnay Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of New Parent (“Merger Sub”), and Spark Networks, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Chardonnay”). Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement without definition are defined in Exhibit A.

RECITALS

A. Chardonnay, New Parent and Riesling intend to merge Merger Sub with and into Chardonnay (the “Merger”) in accordance with this Agreement and the DGCL. Upon consummation of the Merger, Merger Sub will cease to exist, and Chardonnay will become a wholly owned subsidiary of New Parent.

B. In connection with the Merger, pursuant to the terms of the Support Agreement, the stockholders of Riesling intend to transfer all of their Riesling Ordinary Shares to New Parent (the “Riesling Share Transfer”) in exchange for (i) New Parent Ordinary Shares and/or New Parent ADSs and (ii) a claim for a payment in cash by New Parent to the respective stockholders of Riesling of up to €5,730,000 in the aggregate (the “Riesling Share Exchange” and, together with the Merger, the “Transaction”). Riesling is, and will be until (or until immediately before) the consummation of the Riesling Share Transfer, the sole shareholder of New Parent. Following the Transaction, Riesling and the Surviving Corporation will be wholly-owned Subsidiaries of New Parent.

C. For U.S. federal income tax purposes, Chardonnay, Merger Sub, New Parent and Riesling intend that (i) the Merger, taken together with the Share Issuance and the Share Exchange, either will qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code or, when integrated with the Riesling Share Exchange, will be treated as a transaction described in Section 351(a) of the Code, or will qualify under both such provisions, and (ii) this Agreement will constitute a “plan of reorganization” for purposes of Section 354 and 361 of the Code.

D. The New Parent Board has (i) determined that the Transaction is advisable and in the best interests of New Parent and its stockholders, and (ii) approved this Agreement, the Transaction, the issuance of New Parent Ordinary Shares in the Transaction, and the other actions contemplated by this Agreement and deemed this Agreement advisable.

E. The Riesling Supervisory Board and Riesling Management Board have (i) determined that the Transaction is advisable and in the best interests of Riesling and its stockholders, and (ii) approved this Agreement, the Transaction, and the other actions contemplated by this Agreement and deemed this Agreement advisable.

F. The board of directors of Merger Sub has (i) determined that the Merger is advisable and in the best interests of Merger Sub and its sole stockholder, (ii) approved this Agreement, the Transaction, and the other actions contemplated by this Agreement and deemed

this Agreement advisable and (iii) determined to recommend that the sole stockholder of Merger Sub vote to approve the Merger and the adoption of this Agreement.

G. The Chardonnay Board has (i) determined that the Merger is advisable and in the best interests of Chardonnay and its stockholders, (ii) approved this Agreement, the Merger and the other actions contemplated by this Agreement and deemed this Agreement advisable and (iii) determined to recommend that the stockholders of Chardonnay vote to approve the Chardonnay Stockholder Proposals (the “Chardonnay Board Recommendation”).

H. Prior to the execution of this Agreement, Riesling, Chardonnay, New Parent and all stockholders of Riesling have entered into a support agreement regarding the Transaction, the Riesling Share Exchange and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Support Agreement”).

I. Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, certain stockholders of Chardonnay listed on Schedule 1 hereto are executing voting agreements in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (the “Voting Agreements”).

J. Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, certain stockholders of Chardonnay and Riesling listed on Schedule 2 hereto are executing lock-up agreements relating to sales and certain other dispositions of New Parent Ordinary Shares or certain other securities in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit D (the “Lock-up Agreements”).

AGREEMENT

The parties to this Agreement, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

Section 1. DESCRIPTION OF TRANSACTION

1.1 Appointment of Agents.

As promptly as practicable following the date hereof, Riesling shall appoint one or more banks or trust companies or other independent financial institutions (each of which institution and appointment shall be subject to the written consent of Chardonnay, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) to act as:

(i) contribution agent in connection with the Share Exchange (in such function, the “Contribution Agent”), pursuant to a contribution agent agreement with the Contribution Agent, New Parent, Chardonnay and a shareholder representative to be designated by Chardonnay, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to New Parent, Riesling and Chardonnay (the “Contribution Agent Agreement”),

(ii) depositary under a deposit agreement in connection with the issuance of American Depositary Shares representing New Parent Ordinary Shares (“New Parent ADSs”), which may be evidenced by American Depositary Receipts (“New Parent ADRs” and the depositary in such function, the “Depositary”) pursuant to an agreement with the Depositary, effective prior to the Effective Time, which shall be in

customary form and otherwise in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Riesling and Chardonnay (the “Deposit Agreement”), and

(iii) exchange agent in connection with the Share Exchange (in such function, the “Exchange Agent”), pursuant to an exchange agent agreement with the Exchange Agent in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Riesling and Chardonnay, which agreement shall set forth the duties, responsibilities and obligations of the Exchange Agent consistent with the terms of this Agreement (the “Exchange Agent Agreement”).

Riesling and/or New Parent, with the consent of Chardonnay (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) may appoint one or more substitute persons to perform any of the functions of described in this Section 1.1.

Solely to accommodate the transactions described in this Section 1, the Contribution Agent Agreement shall require that, not earlier than one Business Day prior to the Closing Date, the Contribution Agent be registered as New Parent’s fiduciary (for the period prior to the Effective Time only), as the record holder of all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Merger Sub (the “Merger Sub Common Stock”), and New Parent shall so transfer record ownership of all shares of Merger Sub Common Stock to the Contribution Agent; provided, that, at and after the Effective Time, the Contribution Agent shall act as a fiduciary of the former holders of Chardonnay Common Stock for purposes of, among other things, ensuring for the benefit of such former holders the consummation of the Share Capital Increase and the Share Issuance. Under the Contribution Agent Agreement (inter alia), the Contribution Agent shall, among other things, take on the obligation towards the holders of Chardonnay Common Stock to execute a subscription certificate (Zeichnungsschein) and to transfer all of the issued and outstanding shares of Surviving Corporation Common Stock to New Parent following the Effective Time pursuant to Section 1.8(a). For the avoidance of doubt, for the period prior to the Effective Time, New Parent shall continue to be the beneficial owner of the Merger Sub Common Stock held of record by the Contribution Agent.

1.2 Structure of the Merger.

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Effective Time, Merger Sub shall be merged with and into Chardonnay, and the separate existence of Merger Sub shall cease, and Chardonnay will continue as the surviving corporation in the Merger (the “Surviving Corporation”).

1.3 Effects of the Merger.

The Merger shall have the effects set forth in this Agreement and in the applicable provisions of the DGCL.

1.4 Closing; Effective Time.

(a) Unless this Agreement is earlier terminated pursuant to the provisions of Section 9.1, and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Section 6, Section 7 and Section 8, the consummation of the Merger (the “Closing”) shall take

place at 9:00 a.m. local time at the offices of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ on the third Business Day following the satisfaction or waiver of the last to be satisfied or waived of the conditions set forth in Section 6, Section 7 and Section 8, other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of each of such conditions, or at such other time, date and place as Chardonnay and Riesling may mutually agree in writing; provided, however, that, if the resolutions of the shareholders’ meeting of New Parent on the Share Exchange described in Section 1.8(a)(i)(A) or the resolutions on the Riesling Share Exchange described in Section 1.2(a)(i)(A) and (B) of the Support Agreement have not been adopted as of the Reorganization Initiation Date, then (i) Riesling shall undertake to have the shareholders’ meeting of New Parent adopt such resolutions, in each case, no later than three (3) Business Days as from the Reorganization Initiation Date and Riesling shall promptly take the other actions contemplated hereunder required to satisfy the condition set forth in Section 7.7 relating to the consummation of the Riesling Share Transfer and (ii) notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all conditions to Closing set forth in Sections 7.1-7.4 (including those conditions that by their nature can be satisfied only at the Closing) shall be deemed to have been satisfied or (to the extent permitted by applicable Law) waived by Chardonnay on and as of the Closing Date irrespective of any facts, circumstances or events arising subsequent to the date that such resolutions are adopted, so long as Riesling delivers the Officers’ Certificate contemplated by Section 7.3 dated as of the date such resolutions are adopted (except that Section 7.2 shall not be deemed to be satisfied to the extent it would not be satisfied as a result of a Willful Breach by Riesling, New Parent or Merger Sub from and after the Reorganization Initiation Date until the Closing). The date on which the Closing actually takes place is referred to as the “Closing Date.”

(b) At the Closing, the Parties shall cause the Merger to be consummated by executing and filing with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware a certificate of merger (the “Certificate of Merger”) with respect to the Merger, satisfying the applicable requirements of the DGCL and in a form reasonably acceptable to Chardonnay and Riesling. The Merger shall become effective at the time of the filing of such Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, or at such later time as may be specified in such Certificate of Merger with the consent of Chardonnay and Riesling (the time as of which the Merger becomes effective being referred to as the “Effective Time”).

1.5 Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws; Directors and Officers.

(a) Surviving Corporation. At the Effective Time:

(i) the certificate of incorporation of Chardonnay shall be amended and restated in its entirety to read as set forth on Exhibit E, and as so amended and restated shall be the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter changed or amended as provided therein or by applicable Law;

(ii) the bylaws of Chardonnay shall be amended and restated in their entirety to read identically to the bylaws of Merger Sub as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, and as so amended and restated shall be the bylaws of the

Surviving Corporation until thereafter amended as provided by the DGCL and such bylaws; and

(iii) without any further action on the part of New Parent, Riesling, Merger Sub or Chardonnay, the directors and officers of Merger Sub shall be the directors and officers of Chardonnay, as the Surviving Corporation, each to hold office in accordance with the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation.

(b) New Parent.

(i) Riesling shall ensure that, as of Closing, (x) the Articles of Association of New Parent, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F (the “New Parent Articles of Association”) shall be the Articles of Association of New Parent, until thereafter changed or amended as provided therein; and (y) the rules of procedure (Geschäftsordnungen) of the New Parent Board, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G (the “New Parent Rules of Procedure”) shall be the Rules of Procedure of the New Parent Board.

(ii) Riesling shall cause those persons set forth on Schedule 1.5(b)(ii) to be appointed and elected to the New Parent Board effective at, or promptly after, the Effective Time (unless such persons are as of the Effective Time ineligible under mandatory statutory law).

(iii) Riesling and New Parent shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause the New Parent Board to appoint those persons set forth on Schedule 1.5(b)(iii) as managing directors (Geschäftsführende Direktoren) of New Parent effective at or as soon as practicable after the Effective Time (unless such persons are as of the Effective Time ineligible under mandatory statutory law).

(iv) Riesling and New Parent shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause the New Parent Board to appoint ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ as Chief Executive Officer, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇’▇▇▇▇ as Chief Financial Officer and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ as Chief Operating Officer effective at or as soon as practicable after the Effective Time (unless such persons are as of the Effective Time ineligible under mandatory statutory law).

1.6 Conversion of Shares.

(a) Chardonnay Common Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any further action on the part of New Parent, Riesling, Merger Sub, Chardonnay or any stockholder of Chardonnay:

(i) All shares of Chardonnay Common Stock that are held by Chardonnay as treasury stock or that are owned by Chardonnay or Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to be outstanding and shall be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor.

(ii) Each share of Chardonnay Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (excluding shares to be cancelled pursuant to Section 1.6(a)(i), but including the shares held in the Chardonnay Trust pursuant to Section 5.4) shall be converted into the right to receive a number of New Parent ADSs equal to the Exchange Ratio, with each New Parent ADS representing 0.1 New Parent Ordinary Shares, pursuant to the terms of the Deposit Agreement. New Parent ADSs issued hereunder, together with any cash to be paid in lieu of fractional New Parent ADSs pursuant to Section 1.6(e), shall be referred to herein as the “Merger Consideration.” Following the Effective Time, each share of Chardonnay Common Stock shall cease to be outstanding, shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and each Chardonnay Stock Certificate and each book-entry account formerly representing any non-certificated shares of Chardonnay Common Stock shall thereafter represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration and the right, if any, to receive any dividends or other distributions pursuant to Section 1.8(d).

(b) Chardonnay Restricted Stock Awards. If any shares of Chardonnay Common Stock outstanding at the Effective Time are unvested because they are subject to a repurchase option or the risk of forfeiture under a restricted stock purchase agreement or other agreement with Chardonnay, then New Parent Ordinary Shares and/or New Parent ADSs issued in exchange for such shares of Chardonnay Common Stock will to the same extent be unvested and subject to the same repurchase option or risk of forfeiture, and the certificates representing such New Parent Ordinary Shares and/or New Parent ADSs shall accordingly be marked with appropriate legends.

(c) Chardonnay Stock Options. All Chardonnay Stock Options outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be exchanged for awards to acquire New Parent ADSs from the Chardonnay Trust in accordance with Section 5.4.

(d) Chardonnay RSUs. All Chardonnay RSUs shall be converted into shares of Chardonnay Common Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time in accordance with Section 5.4.

(e) No Fractional Shares. No fractional New Parent ADSs shall be issued upon the surrender of Chardonnay Stock Certificates for exchange, and such fractional share interests will not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any other rights of a holder of New Parent ADSs. In lieu of any such fractional New Parent ADSs, each holder of a fractional New Parent ADS shall be paid an amount in cash (without interest and subject to the amount of any withholding taxes as contemplated in Section 1.8(f)) equal to such holder’s proportionate interest in the sum of (i) the net proceeds from the sale or sales by the Exchange Agent in accordance with the provisions of this Section 1.6(e), on behalf of all such holders, of the Excess Securities and (ii) the aggregate dividends or other distributions that are payable with respect to such Excess Securities pursuant to Section 1.8(d) (such dividends and distributions being herein called the “Fractional Dividends”). As soon as reasonably practicable following the Effective Time, the Exchange Agent shall determine the excess of (x) the number of New Parent ADSs into which the Chardonnay Common Stock was converted pursuant to Section 1.6(a) over (y) the aggregate number of whole New Parent ADSs to which the former holders of Chardonnay Common Stock are entitled pursuant to Section 1.6(a) (such excess being herein called the

“Excess Securities”) and the Exchange Agent, as agent for the former holders of Chardonnay Common Stock, shall sell the Excess Securities at the prevailing prices on the NYSE MKT LLC (“NYSE MKT”). The sale of the Excess Securities by the Exchange Agent shall be executed on the NYSE MKT through one or more member firms of the NYSE MKT and shall be executed in round lots to the extent practicable. The Exchange Agent shall deduct from the proceeds of sale of the Excess Securities all commissions, transfer taxes and other out-of-pocket transaction costs, including the expenses and compensation of the Exchange Agent, incurred in connection with such sale of Excess Securities. Until the net proceeds of such sale of Excess Securities and the Fractional Dividends have been distributed to the former stockholders of Chardonnay, the Exchange Agent will hold such proceeds and dividends for the benefit of such former stockholders. As soon as reasonably practicable after the determination of the amount of cash to be paid to former stockholders of Chardonnay for any fractional interests, the Exchange Agent shall make available in accordance with this Agreement such amounts to such former stockholders.

(f) Merger Sub Common Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any further action on the part of New Parent, Riesling, Merger Sub, Chardonnay or any stockholder of Chardonnay, each share of Merger Sub Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation (“Surviving Corporation Common Stock”). Each stock certificate of Merger Sub (or book-entry, if applicable) evidencing ownership of any such shares shall, as of the Effective Time, evidence ownership of such shares Surviving Corporation Common Stock.

1.7 Closing of Chardonnay’s Transfer Books.

At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of Chardonnay shall be closed with respect to all shares of Chardonnay Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. No further transfer of any such shares of Chardonnay Common Stock shall be made on such stock transfer books after the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, a valid certificate previously representing any shares of Chardonnay Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (a “Chardonnay Stock Certificate,” it being understood that any reference herein to Chardonnay Stock Certificate shall be deemed to include a reference to non-certificated book-entry account arrangements for the ownership of shares of Chardonnay Common Stock, as applicable) is presented to the Exchange Agent or to New Parent, such Chardonnay Stock Certificate shall be cancelled and shall be exchanged as provided in Sections 1.6 and 1.8. From and after the Effective Time, the holders of Chardonnay Stock Certificates outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will cease to have any rights with respect to Chardonnay Common Stock represented by such Chardonnay Stock Certificates except as otherwise provided for herein or by applicable Law.

1.8 Exchange of Certificates.

The procedures for exchanging Chardonnay Stock Certificates representing outstanding shares of Chardonnay Common Stock for the Merger Consideration pursuant to the Merger are set forth below.

(ii) with respect to the Share Exchange:

(A) the Contribution Agent Agreement shall require the Contribution Agent to deposit with the Depositary, for the benefit of the holders of shares of Chardonnay Common Stock, the New Parent Ordinary Shares underlying the Merger Consideration,

(B) the Deposit Agreement shall require the Depositary to issue to the Exchange Agent New Parent ADSs comprising the Merger Consideration, and

(C) the Exchange Agent Agreement shall require the Exchange Agent to deliver in accordance with this Section 1.8(a) New Parent ADSs reflecting the Merger Consideration to the former holders of shares of Chardonnay Common Stock (such New Parent ADSs, together with any dividends or distributions with respect thereto, being referred to as the “Exchange Fund”) and any cash in lieu of New Parent ADRs representing fractional New Parent ADSs (the actions described in clauses (A), (B) and (C) above, collectively, the “Share Exchange”).

(f) Withholding of Tax. New Parent, Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent will be entitled to deduct and withhold from the Merger Consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of shares of Chardonnay Common Stock such amounts as New Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent are required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code or any provision of federal, state, local or foreign tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by New Parent, Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent, such withheld amounts (i) shall be remitted by New Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent, as the case may be, to the applicable Governmental Authority and (ii) shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of the shares of Chardonnay Common Stock in respect of whom such deduction and withholding were made.

(g) Lost Certificates. If any Chardonnay Stock Certificate is lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming such Chardonnay Stock Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, and an indemnification against loss in customary form, the Exchange Agent shall issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Chardonnay Stock Certificate the Merger Consideration deliverable in respect thereof pursuant to this Agreement.

(h) No Liability. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, none of the Exchange Agent, Riesling, New Parent, Merger Sub or the Surviving Corporation shall be liable to a holder of shares of Chardonnay Common Stock for any New Parent ADSs or any amount of cash from the Exchange Fund properly paid to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law or retained by New Parent.

Chardonnay shall promptly (and in no event later than 48 hours after receipt) provide copies to Riesling of any written proposals, indications of interest, and/or draft agreements relating to such Chardonnay Acquisition Proposal. Without limiting the foregoing, Chardonnay shall keep Riesling reasonably informed of any material developments, discussions or negotiations regarding any such Chardonnay Acquisition Proposal or potential Chardonnay Acquisition Proposal (including by promptly (and in no event later than 48 hours after receipt) providing to Riesling copies of any additional or revised written proposals, indications of interest, and/or draft agreements) and upon the request of Riesling shall apprise Riesling of the status of such Chardonnay Acquisition Proposal. Chardonnay shall substantially contemporaneously provide to Riesling any material nonpublic information concerning Chardonnay provided to any other Person in connection with any Chardonnay Acquisition Proposal that was not previously provided to Riesling.

approve, adopt or recommend or propose publicly to approve, adopt or recommend any Chardonnay Acquisition Proposal, (D) take any formal action or make any public recommendation or public statement in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer (other than a recommendation against such offer or a customary “stop, look and listen” communication of the type contemplated by Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act, in each case that includes a reaffirmation of the Chardonnay Board Recommendation), it being understood that the Chardonnay Board may refrain from taking a position with respect to such a tender offer or exchange offer until the close of business as of the tenth Business Day after the commencement of such tender offer or exchange offer pursuant to Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act without such action being considered a Chardonnay Change of Recommendation or (E) fail to publicly recommend against a Chardonnay Acquisition Proposal and reaffirm the Chardonnay Board Recommendation following the public making of a Chardonnay Acquisition Proposal within ten (10) Business Days following any request by Riesling, which request Riesling shall make no more than two times during the pendency of any Chardonnay Acquisition Proposal (any action described in this sentence being referred to as a “Chardonnay Change of Recommendation”) or (ii) except for confidentiality and similar agreements permitted by this Section 4.7, authorize, cause or permit Chardonnay or any of its Subsidiaries to enter into any letter of intent, agreement, commitment or agreement in principle with respect to any Chardonnay Acquisition Proposal.

(e) Notwithstanding the limitations set forth in the preceding Section 4.7(d) or anything else in this Agreement, at any time prior to the approval of the Chardonnay Stockholder Proposal at the Chardonnay Stockholder Meeting, the Chardonnay Board may

(x) make a Chardonnay Change of Recommendation in response to (1) an Intervening Event or (2) Chardonnay receiving a bona fide, unsolicited Chardonnay Acquisition Proposal that did not result from any breach of this Section 4.7 that the Chardonnay Board has determined in good faith (after consultation with Chardonnay’s outside legal and financial advisors) constitutes a Chardonnay Superior Offer, in each case, if the Chardonnay Board has determined in good faith (after consultation with Chardonnay’s outside legal and financial advisors) that the failure to do so would be inconsistent with the Chardonnay Board’s duties under applicable Law, or

(y) cause Chardonnay to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 9.1(h), pay, prior to or simultaneously with and as a condition precedent to such termination, the fee contemplated by Section 9.3(a)(ii), and enter into a binding written agreement with respect to a bona fide, unsolicited written Chardonnay Acquisition Proposal not resulting from any breach of this Section 4.7 that the Chardonnay Board has determined in good faith (after consultation with Chardonnay’s outside legal and financial advisors) constitutes a Chardonnay Superior Offer if the Chardonnay Board has determined in good faith (after consultation with Chardonnay’s outside legal and financial advisors) that the failure to do so would be inconsistent with the Chardonnay Board’s duties under applicable Law; provided, that, prior to taking any action under the preceding clause (x) or (y),

(A) Chardonnay shall have complied with this Section 4.7 in all material

respects,

(B) Chardonnay shall provide Riesling with five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice advising Riesling that it intends to take such action and (1) in the case of such an action taken in connection with an Intervening Event, a reasonable description of such Intervening Event or (2) in the case of such an action taken in connection with a Chardonnay Superior Offer, attaching a copy of such Chardonnay Superior Offer, a copy of the relevant proposed transaction agreements and a copy of any financing commitments relating thereto and a written summary of the material terms of such Chardonnay Superior Offer not made in writing, including with respect to any financing commitments relating thereto,

(C) Chardonnay has negotiated, and caused its Representatives to negotiate, in good faith with Riesling during such notice period, to the extent Riesling wishes to negotiate, to enable Riesling to propose revisions to the terms of this Agreement such that it would cause such Chardonnay Superior Offer to no longer constitute a Chardonnay Superior Offer, or, in the case such notice was delivered in connection with an Intervening Event, such that the failure to make a Chardonnay Change of Recommendation is not inconsistent with the Chardonnay Board’s duties under applicable Law,

(D) following the end of such notice period, the Chardonnay Board shall have considered in good faith any revisions to the terms of this Agreement offered in writing by Riesling, and shall have determined, after consultation with its outside financial advisors and outside legal counsel, that the Chardonnay Superior Offer would nevertheless continue to constitute a Chardonnay Superior Offer if the revisions offered by Riesling were to be given effect, or, in the case such notice was delivered in connection with an Intervening Event, that the failure to make a Chardonnay Change of Recommendation nevertheless continues to be inconsistent with the Chardonnay Board’s duties under applicable Law, and

(E) in the case only of such an action taken in connection with a Chardonnay Superior Offer, in the event of each and every change to any of the financial terms (including the form, amount and timing of payment of consideration) or any material change to the facts and circumstances relating to such Intervening Event, Chardonnay shall, in each case, have delivered to Riesling an additional notice consistent with that described in clause (B) above of this proviso and a new notice period under clause (B) of this proviso shall commence (except that the five (5) Business Day period notice period referred to in clause (B) above of this proviso shall instead be equal to the longer of (I) three (3) Business Days and (II) the period remaining under the notice period under clause (B) of this proviso immediately prior to the delivery of such additional notice under this clause (E)) during which time Chardonnay shall be required to comply with the requirements of this Section 4.7(e) anew with respect to such additional notice, including clauses (B) through (E) above of this proviso.

(f) Nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit Chardonnay from complying with Rule 14e-2 or Rule 14d-9 promulgated under the Exchange Act or the Chardonnay Board from making any disclosure to the holders of Chardonnay Common Stock if the

Chardonnay Board determines, in the good faith judgment of the Chardonnay Board (after consultation with its outside legal counsel), that making such disclosure would be required to comply with its duties under applicable Laws; provided, that any such position or disclosure (other than a customary “stop, look and listen” communication of the type contemplated by Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act, in each case that includes a reaffirmation of the Chardonnay Board Recommendation) shall be deemed to be a Chardonnay Change of Recommendation unless the Chardonnay Board expressly and concurrently reaffirms the Chardonnay Board Recommendation.

4.8 Merger Sub Stockholder Approval.

Prior to the Effective Time, Chardonnay shall issue and deliver to the Chardonnay Trust such number of shares of Chardonnay Common Stock as shall be necessary to satisfy the obligations under all unexercised Chardonnay Stock Options as of immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(c) At the Effective Time, each Chardonnay Stock Option shall cease to represent a right to acquire shares of Chardonnay Common Stock and shall be converted, at the Effective Time, into an award to acquire from the Chardonnay Trust, on the same terms and conditions as were applicable under the Chardonnay Stock Option (but taking into account any changes thereto, by reason of this Agreement or the transactions as may be provided for in the Chardonnay Stock Option Plans, in any award or other agreement or in such award), that number of New Parent ADSs determined by multiplying the number of shares of Chardonnay Common Stock subject to such Chardonnay Stock Option by the Exchange Ratio, with the result rounded down to the nearest whole New Parent ADS, and, with respect to options, at a price per share equal to the per share exercise price specified in such Chardonnay Stock Option or Chardonnay Stock Option Plan, as applicable, divided by the Exchange Ratio, with the result rounded up to the nearest whole cent; provided, that in the case of any Chardonnay Stock Option and to which Section 421 of the Code applies by reason of its qualification under Section 422 of the Code, the option price, the number of shares subject to such Chardonnay Stock Option and the terms and conditions related to the exercise of such Chardonnay Stock Option shall be determined in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 424(a) of the Code; provided, further, that in the case of any Chardonnay Stock Option to which Section 421 of the Code applies by reason of its qualification under Section 423 of the Code, the option price, the number of shares subject to such Chardonnay Stock Option and the terms and conditions related to the exercise of such Chardonnay Stock Option shall be determined in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 424(a) of the Code and the adjustment to the exercise price shall only apply to the determination of the exercise price of the Chardonnay Stock Option at the beginning of such option’s offering period.

(d) Prior to the Effective Time, Chardonnay shall deliver to the holders of Chardonnay Stock Options and Chardonnay RSUs appropriate notices setting forth such holders’ rights with respect to the foregoing subsections (a) and (c). The agreements evidencing the grants of such Chardonnay Stock Options and Chardonnay RSUs shall continue in effect on the same terms and conditions (subject to the adjustments required by this Section 5.4).

(e) No later than two (2) Business Days following the Effective Time, New Parent shall file a registration statement on Form S-8 (or any successor or other appropriate forms), with respect to New Parent ADSs subject to the Chardonnay Stock Options and shall use reasonable best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement or registration statements for so long as such Chardonnay Stock Options remain outstanding.

All rights to indemnification, exculpation or advancement of expenses now existing in favor of, and all limitations on the personal liability of, each Indemnified Party provided for in the organizational documents of Chardonnay or any Chardonnay Subsidiary in effect as of the date hereof or in any agreements of Chardonnay or any Chardonnay Subsidiary with any Indemnified Party shall survive the Merger and continue to be honored and in full force and effect until six (6) years after the Effective Time. Additionally, with respect to the first sentence of this Section 5.5(a), all such obligations and rights in respect of any claims asserted or made within such period by any Indemnified Party, or in respect of any matter with respect to which notice is provided to New Parent or the Surviving Corporation by any Indemnified Party, shall continue until the disposition of such claim and final disposition of any such matter. The certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation will contain provisions with respect to indemnification, exculpation from liability and advancement of expenses that are at least as favorable as those in the Chardonnay Charter and Chardonnay Bylaws as of the date hereof, and during such six (6) year period following the Effective Time, New Parent shall not and shall cause the Surviving Corporation not to amend, repeal or otherwise modify such provisions in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of any Indemnified Party in respect of actions or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time except as required by applicable Law.

(b) Chardonnay may, and if not done by Chardonnay prior to the Closing then New Parent shall, effective at the Closing, purchase a six-year “tail” policy under Chardonnay’ existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy, with an effective date as of the Closing (provided that either such party may substitute therefor policies of at least the same coverage containing terms and conditions that are not less favorable in any material respect); provided that in no event shall either such party be required to expend an aggregate amount that is greater than 250% of the current annual premiums paid by such party for such insurance.

(c) The provisions of this Section 5.5 are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each of the Persons indemnified hereby, and his or her heirs and

Representatives, and may not be amended, altered or repealed without the written consent of any such Person affected by such amendment, alteration or repeal. The provisions in this Section 5.5 are intended to be in addition to the rights otherwise available to the Indemnified Parties by Laws, charters, bylaws or agreements.

(d) If New Parent or the Surviving Corporation or any of the successors or assigns of New Parent or the Surviving Corporation (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or 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, to the extent necessary, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of New Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 5.5.

In addition, Riesling, New Parent and Chardonnay, if required, will, as of the date the Registration Statement is declared effective, execute and deliver to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP the Tax Representation Letters, dated and executed as of such date.

transaction described in Section 351(a) of the Code when integrated with the Riesling Share Exchange, (ii) to result in gain being recognized pursuant to Section 367(a)(1) of the Code by Persons who are stockholders of Chardonnay immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than any stockholder that would be a “five-percent transferee shareholder” (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.367(a)-3(c)(5)(ii)) of New Parent following the Merger that does not enter into a five-year gain recognition agreement in the form provided in Treasury Regulations Section 1.367(a)-8), or (iii) to cause Chardonnay to be treated as an “expatriated entity” within the meaning of Section 7874(a)(2) of the Code as a result of the Merger and the Share Exchange.

(c) This Agreement is intended to constitute, and the Parties hereby adopt this Agreement as, a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Sections 1.368-2(g) and 1.368-3(a).

5.13 Riesling Directors and Officers.

(b) From and after the Effective Time, New Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries to, grant all of the Continuing Employees credit for any service with Chardonnay or its Subsidiaries (as well as service with any predecessor entity to the extent such service is taken into account under the applicable plan of Chardonnay or its Subsidiaries prior to the Effective Time) earned prior to the Effective Time and with New Parent, the Surviving Corporation, and any of their Subsidiaries or Affiliates on and after the Effective Time, solely for eligibility and vesting purposes, but not for benefit accrual purposes, under any benefit or compensation plan, program, agreement or arrangement that may be established or that is maintained by New Parent or the Surviving Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries on or after the Effective Time. Without limiting the foregoing, New Parent shall cause to be waived any pre-existing conditions or limitations, exclusions, waiting periods and required physical examinations under any welfare benefit plan maintained by New Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Subsidiaries in which the Continuing Employees (or their eligible dependents) will be eligible to participate from and after the Effective Time, except to the extent that such pre-existing conditions or limitations, exclusions, waiting periods or required physical examinations would not have been satisfied or waived under the comparable Chardonnay Employee Program in which the Continuing Employee participated

immediately prior to the Effective Time.
