In the event any claim is brought or maintained by a Releasor against any released party in violation of this Agreement, such Stockholder shall be responsible for all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by the released parties in defending same. Each Stockholder expressly acknowledges that the release contained herein applies to all Claims, regardless of whether such Claims are known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, existing or prospective, and include Claims which, if known by the releasing party, might materially affect its decision to enter into this Section 6.2 (other than the Excluded Claims).

6.5 Non-Competition/Non-Solicitation.

(a) Each Restricted Stockholder and her, his or their Affiliates over which she, he or they has/have control shall not, directly or indirectly, for a period of [***] after the Closing Date, engage (whether as owner, employee, operator, manager, consultant or otherwise) anywhere in the world in any business that competes with the Business as conducted by the Company as of the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Restricted Stockholder and her, his or their Affiliates shall not be prohibited by this Section 6.5(a) from (i) acquiring or owning less than five percent (5%) of the outstanding voting power of any publicly traded company on a passive basis; (ii) work for a Person (a) that is not primarily engaged in the Business and (b) for which the Business does not generate a significant portion of such Peron’s aggregate revenue; provided that (1) the Restricted Stockholder does not personally participate in the Business and (b) the services provided by the Restricted Stockholder to such Person do not primarily relate to or assist with the Business; or (iii) work as a professor of the for a college, university or other academic institution.

(b) Each Restricted Stockholder and her, his or their Affiliates over which she, he or they has/have control shall not, nor shall she, he or they permit any of her, his or their Affiliates to, directly or indirectly, for a period of [***] after the Closing Date, (i) other than for the benefit of the Company or the Purchaser, divert or take away any business from or with, any customer, supplier, agent or distributor of the Company, or solicit, call upon, or attempt to induce any such customer, supplier, agent or distributor to terminate or adversely affect or materially reduce their business relationship with the Company, or (ii) contact, solicit or approach for the purpose of offering employment to, or hire (whether as an employee, consultant, agent, independent contractor or otherwise), any employee employed or full-time consultant engaged by the Company during the [***] period preceding such contact, solicitation or approach (provided, that the foregoing clause shall not prohibit each Restricted Stockholder or her, his or their Affiliates from making a general solicitation not targeting any such employee or consultant).

(c) Each Restricted Stockholder, for himself and on behalf of her, his or their Affiliates, agrees that the scope of the restrictive provisions set forth in this Section 6.5 are reasonable with respect to subject matter, time and scope and that the provisions contained in this Section 6.5 are a material inducement to the Purchaser’s entering into this Agreement and but for the provisions contained in this Section 6.5, the Purchaser would not have entered into this Agreement. In the event that any court determines that the subject matter, duration or geographic scope, or all of the foregoing, is unreasonable and that such provision is to that extent unenforceable, the Purchaser and each Restricted Stockholder, for itself or himself and on behalf of each of her, his or their or its Affiliates, agree that the provision shall remain in full force and effect for the greatest time period and for the broadest subject matter and in the greatest area, as the case may be, that would not render it unenforceable. It is specifically understood and agreed that any breach of the provisions of this Section 6.5 by each Restricted Stockholder or any of her, his or their Affiliates will result in irreparable injury to the Purchaser, that the remedy at law alone will be

46

an inadequate remedy for such breach and that, in addition to any other remedy it may have, the Purchaser shall be entitled to enforce the specific performance of this Section 6.5 by such Restricted Stockholder and her, his or their Affiliates through both temporary and permanent injunctive relief without the necessity of proving actual damages and without posting a bond, but without limitation of the Purchaser’s right to damages and any and all other remedies available to the Purchaser, it being understood that injunctive relief is in addition to, and not in lieu of, such other remedies. Should a court of competent jurisdiction determine that Restricted Stockholder has breached Section 6.5(a) or 6.5(b) above, the term of the restrictions set forth in Section 6.5(a) or 6.5(b), as applicable, shall be tolled by the duration of such breach. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the restrictions set forth in this Section 6.5 are independent of and in addition to any restrictions set forth in the Signing Consultant Documents and/or any other Contract between the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including the Company), on the one hand, and any Restricted Stockholder, on the other hand (including the remainder of this Agreement). Each Restricted Stockholder acknowledges and agrees that she, he or they has/have received, or is receiving, substantial consideration in connection with the Transactions. No breach by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates of any contractual or other obligations it or they have to any Stockholder shall constitute a defense, or a limitation of, the enforcement of this Section 6.5 against such Stockholder. The prevailing party in any Proceeding to enforce this Section 6.5, in addition to all other remedies available at law, in equity, and under contract, shall be entitled to an award against the other party to cover the costs of such Proceeding, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses.

8.2 Tax Contests.

(a) The Purchaser shall promptly notify the Stockholders in writing upon receipt by the Purchaser or the Company of notice in writing of any audit or other administrative proceeding or inquiry or judicial proceeding involving Taxes that could reasonably be expected to give rise to a claim for indemnification under Section 9.2(a) (a “Tax Contest”); provided, that the failure of the notified party to give any other party notice as provided herein shall not relieve such other party of its indemnification obligations under Article IX except to the extent that such other party is prejudiced thereby.

(b) The Purchaser shall have the right to control and conduct any Tax Contest, provided that (i) the Purchaser shall keep the Stockholders reasonably informed of all material developments on a timely basis, (ii) the Purchaser shall provide to the Stockholders copies of any written material correspondence received from the Tax authority related to such Tax Contest, (iii) the Stockholders may participate in any such contest with representation of its choice at the Stockholders’ sole expense and (iv) the Purchaser shall not settle or compromise any Tax Contest without the prior written consent of a majority of the Stockholders, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(c) In the event of any conflict or overlap between the provisions of this Section 8.2 and Section 9.6, the provisions of this Section 8.2 shall control.

8.3 Straddle Periods. For purposes of this Agreement, in order to apportion appropriately any Taxes relating to a Straddle Period, the portion of any Taxes that are allocable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on and including the Closing Date shall be (a) in the case of income Taxes and all other Taxes that are not imposed on a periodic basis, the amount that would be payable if the taxable year or period ended on the Closing Date based on an interim closing of the books (and for such purpose, the Tax period of any controlled foreign corporation, partnership or other pass-through entity in which the Company holds a beneficial interest shall be deemed to terminate at such time) and (b) in the case of any Taxes that are imposed on a periodic basis, the amount of such Taxes for the relevant period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which shall be the number of days from the beginning of the period up to and including the Closing Date and the denominator of which shall be the number of days in the entire period. For the avoidance of doubt, exemptions, allowances or deductions that are calculated on an annual basis (including depreciation and amortization deductions) shall be allocated between the period ending on the Closing Date and the period after the Closing Date in proportion to the number of days in each period by an interim closing of the books as of the Closing, other than with respect to any property placed into service after the Closing.

49

8.4 Tax Cooperation. The Purchaser, the Company and the Stockholders shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other parties hereto, in connection with the filing, preparation and review of Tax Returns, and any Tax audits, Tax proceedings or other Tax-related claims (including claims under this Agreement). Such cooperation shall include providing records and information that are reasonably relevant to any such matters and in their possession (or if not in their possession, if reasonably able to obtain), making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information, and explaining any materials provided pursuant to this Section 8.4. The Purchaser, the Company and the Stockholders shall not destroy or dispose of any Tax workpapers, schedules or other materials and documents in their possession or under their control supporting Tax Returns of the Company for Pre-Closing Tax Periods until the seventh (7th) anniversary of the Closing Date.

If an Officer’s Certificate asserting a claim for indemnification hereunder is received, (x) in the case of representations and warranties that survive until the Survival Date, on or before the Survival Date, (y) in the case of the Special Representations and the Fundamental Representations, before the date on which such representation or warranty ceases to survive, or (z) in the case of the covenants and indemnities (other than for breach of representation and warranties as provided for in the clauses (x) and (y)), before the date on which such covenant or indemnity ceases to survive, then the claims arising in connection with such Officer’s Certificate shall survive for the benefit of all Indemnified Parties beyond the expiration of the applicable survival period for such representation, warranty, covenant or indemnity until such claims are fully and finally resolved. The parties further acknowledge that the time periods set forth in this Section 9.1 for the assertion of claims under this Agreement are the result of arms’ length negotiation among the parties and that they intend for the time periods to be enforced as agreed by the parties.

9.2 Indemnification.

(a) Subject to the provisions of this Article IX, from and after the Closing, the Stockholders agree, severally, but not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser Indemnified Parties, from and against, and shall compensate and reimburse the Purchaser Indemnified Parties for, all Losses incurred or sustained by the Purchaser Indemnified Parties, or any of them, directly or indirectly, arising under, in connection with or as a result of any of the following:

(i) any breach of a representation or warranty made by the Company in this Agreement or any Certificate delivered by the Company to the Purchaser in connection with the Closing;

(viii) any Pre-Closing Taxes.

(b) Subject to the provisions of this Article IX, from and after the Closing, each Stockholder agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser Indemnified Parties, from and against, and shall compensate and reimburse the Purchaser Indemnified Parties for, all Losses incurred or sustained by the Purchaser Indemnified Parties, or any of them, directly or indirectly, arising under, in connection with or as a result of any of the following:

(i) any breach of a representation or warranty made such Stockholder in this Agreement any Certificate delivered by such Seller to the Purchaser in connection with the Closing;

(iii) any fraud, or any Willful Breach of any provision of this Agreement or any Certificate, to the extent committed as of or prior to the Closing, by such Stockholder or any authorized representative thereof.

(c) Subject to the provisions of this Article IX, from and after the Closing, the Purchaser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Seller Indemnified Parties, from and against, and shall compensate and reimburse the Seller Indemnified Parties for, all Losses incurred or sustained by the Seller Indemnified Parties, or any of them, directly or indirectly, arising under, in connection with or as a result of any of the following:

(iii) any fraud, or any Willful Breach of any provision of this Agreement or any Certificate, to the extent committed as of or prior to the Closing, by the Purchaser or any authorized representative thereof.

(d) For the purpose of this Article IX only, when determining the amount of Losses suffered by an Indemnified Party as a result of, any breach, inaccuracy or failure, any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement that is qualified or limited in scope as to material, material adverse effect, Material Adverse Effect, or any other materiality qualifications or limitations shall be deemed to be made or given without such qualification or limitation.

(e) The Stockholders shall not have any right of contribution, indemnification or right of advancement from the Purchaser or any of its Affiliate with respect to any Loss claimed by a Purchaser Indemnified Party.

52

(f) This Article IX shall constitute the exclusive remedy after the Closing for recovery of Losses by the Indemnified Parties as a result of breaches of the matters specified in Sections 9.2(a), 9.2(b), and/or 9.2(c), provided, that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement shall limit the rights or remedies of the Purchaser or any other Purchaser Indemnified Party (i) in the case of fraud or Willful Breach (including pursuant to Sections 9.2(a)(iii) or 9.2(b)(iii)), (ii) against a signatory to an Ancillary Agreement for matters relating to such Ancillary Agreement (other than a Certificate), (iii) with respect to specific performance, injunctive and other equitable relief, or (iv) claims relating to Related Party Transactions. Without limiting the foregoing, the provisions of this Article IX will not prevent or limit a cause of action under Section 6.4 to obtain an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of covenants contained in this Agreement.

9.3 Maximum Payments; Remedy.

(a) The Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall not be entitled to any recovery resulting from Section 9.2(a)(i) until such time (if at all) as the total amount of all Losses that have been suffered or incurred by any one or more of such Indemnified Parties with respect to such matters exceeds [***] in the aggregate (the “Deductible”); and in such event, the Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall, subject to the limitations set forth in the remaining subsections of this Section 9.3, be entitled to be indemnified against and compensated and reimbursed to the extent all Losses from the first Dollar thereof; provided, that the limitations set forth in this Section 9.3(a) shall not apply to any indemnification claims relating to (i) any breach of any representation or warranty that involves fraud or Willful Breach (including pursuant to Sections 9.2(a)(iii) or 9.2(b)(iii)) or (ii) any breach of the Special Representations or the Fundamental Representations.

(b) The maximum amount that the Purchaser Indemnified Parties may recover from the Stockholders under Sections 9.2(a)(i) and 9.2(b)(i) shall be limited to the Indemnification Escrow Amount; provided, that (i) in the case of any breach or inaccuracy of the Special Representations, the maximum amount that the Purchaser Indemnified Parties may recover from the Stockholders shall be limited to $[***] and (ii) in the case of any breach of the Fundamental Representations, the maximum amount that the Purchaser Indemnified Parties may recover from the Stockholders shall be limited to $[***] plus the maximum aggregate amount of all Milestone Payments that become payable (prior to any application of any setoff right) under this Agreement (including any amounts in the Indemnification Escrow Fund) (the “Indemnifying Stockholder Proceeds”). Absent fraud or Willful Breach by the Company, the Stockholders or any of their respective authorized representatives (including pursuant to Sections 9.2(a)(iii) or 9.2(b)(iii)), the maximum amount that the Purchaser Indemnified Parties may recover from the Stockholders under Section 9.2(a) shall be limited to the Indemnifying Stockholder Proceeds. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, nothing herein shall limit the recovery amount against the Stockholders, or remedies available to a Purchaser Indemnified Party, for claims pursuant to Section 9.2(a)(vii) or for fraud or Willful Breach by the Company, the Stockholders or any of their respective authorized representatives (including pursuant to Section 9.2(a)(iii)); provided, however, that no Stockholder shall be liable for the fraud or Willful Breach of another Stockholder or such other Stockholder’s authorized representative.

(c) For the avoidance of doubt, if and solely to the extent the amount of a Loss is recovered by an Indemnified Party through the actual payment of a Payable Claim to such Indemnified Party, the same amount of such Loss may not be recovered again by such Indemnified Party by reason of such Loss being subject to indemnification under more than one provision of this Agreement.

53

(d) The maximum amount that the Seller Indemnified Parties may recover from the Purchaser under Section 9.2(c)(i) shall be limited to the amounts in the Indemnification Escrow Amount.

(e) Except in the case of fraud or Willful Misconduct, each Indemnified Party agrees to take commercially reasonable actions to mitigate any Losses and to make and pursue any claims for insurance and/or other payments available from third parties with respect to Losses for which it will seek indemnification hereunder, with all mitigation costs to be included in the amount of Losses arising under the applicable indemnified claim. An Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification pursuant to this Article IX on account of any Losses will be reduced by all insurance of the Indemnified Party indemnification or contribution proceeds actually received by such Indemnified Party or their Affiliates in respect of those Losses, net of applicable costs and expenses involved in seeking such recovery. The applicable Indemnified Parties shall remit to the applicable Indemnifying Parties any such insurance or other third party proceeds that are paid to such Indemnified Parties with respect to such Losses for which such Indemnified Parties have been previously indemnified pursuant to this Article IX.

9.4 Claims for Indemnification; Resolution of Conflicts.

(a) Making a Claim for Indemnification; Officer’s Certificate. An Indemnified Party may seek recovery of Losses pursuant to this Article IX by delivering to the Purchaser (if the Indemnifying Party is a Purchaser) or the Stockholders’ Representative (if the Indemnifying Party is one or more Stockholders) an Officer’s Certificate in respect of such claim. The date of such delivery of an Officer’s Certificate is referred to herein as the “Claim Date” of such Officer’s Certificate (and the claims for indemnification contained therein). For purposes hereof, “Officer’s Certificate” means a certificate signed by any authorized representative of an Indemnified Party (or, in the case of an Indemnified Party who is an individual, signed by such individual) stating that an Indemnified Party has paid, sustained, incurred or accrued, or reasonably anticipates that it will have to pay, sustain, incur or accrue Losses, and including, to the extent reasonably practicable, a non-binding, preliminary estimate of the amounts of such Losses and a reasonable description of the circumstances surrounding such Claim and the provisions of this Agreement under which such party is claiming indemnification; provided, that the Officer’s Certificate need only specify such information to the knowledge of such officer or such Indemnified Party as of the Claim Date, shall not limit any of the rights or remedies of any Indemnified Party, and may be updated and amended from time to time by the Indemnified Party by delivering an updated or amended Officer’s Certificate to the Stockholders.

(b) Objecting to a Claim for Indemnification. The Purchaser (if the Indemnifying Party is a Purchaser) or the Stockholders’ Representative (if the Indemnifying Party is one or more Stockholders) may object, in whole or in part, to a claim for indemnification set forth in an Officer’s Certificate by delivering to the applicable Indemnified Party seeking indemnification a written statement of objection to the claim made in the Officer’s Certificate (an “Objection Notice”); provided, that, to be effective, such Objection Notice must (A) be delivered to the Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 10.3 prior to 5:00 p.m. New York time on the [***] following the Claim Date of the Officer’s Certificate (such deadline, the “Objection Deadline” for such Officer’s Certificate and the claims for indemnification contained therein) and (B) set forth in reasonable detail the nature of the objections to the claim in respect of which the objection is made.

(c) Resolution of Conflicts. In case the Purchaser or the Stockholders’ Representative, as applicable, timely delivers an Objection Notice in accordance with Section 9.4(b) hereof, the Purchaser (if the Indemnifying Party is a Purchaser) or the Stockholders’ Representative (if the Indemnifying Party is one or more Stockholders) and the applicable Indemnified Parties shall attempt in good faith to agree upon

54

the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of such claims. If the Purchaser (if the Indemnifying Party is a Purchaser) or the Stockholders’ Representative (if the Indemnifying Party is one or more Stockholders) reach an agreement, a memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by all applicable parties (any claims covered by such an agreement, “Settled Claims”). Any amounts required to be paid as a result of a Settled Claim shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Parties pursuant to the Settled Claim within [***] days of the applicable claim becoming a Settled Claim, subject to Sections 9.4(e) and 9.5. If the Purchaser (if the Indemnifying Party is a Purchaser) or the Stockholders’ Representative (if the Indemnifying Party is one or more Stockholders) and the Indemnified Parties are unable to reach an agreement, the matter specified in the Objection Notice shall be resolved pursuant to Section 10.10 (any claims resolved pursuant thereto, “Resolved Claims”).

(d) Payable and Unresolved Claims. A “Payable Claim” means a claim for indemnification of Losses under this Article IX, to the extent that such claim has not yet been satisfied (including by release to the Indemnified Party of cash from the Indemnification Escrow Fund), that is (i) a Resolved Claim, or (ii) a Settled Claim. An “Unresolved Claim” means any claim for indemnification of Losses under this Article IX delivered to the Stockholders’ Representative prior to the Escrow Release Time specified in any Officer’s Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 9.4(a), to the extent that such claim is not a Payable Claim and has not been satisfied (including by release to the Indemnified Party of cash from the Indemnification Escrow Fund).

(e) Escrow Amount; Recovery of Losses.

(i) Subject to Sections 9.4(b) and 9.4(c) above, by virtue of this Agreement and as partial security for the indemnity obligations provided for in Sections 9.2(a) hereof, subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall have the right, and shall be required, in the manner provided in this Section 9.4(e) and Section 9.5(b), to recover the amount of any Losses with respect to which the Purchaser Indemnified Parties are entitled to indemnification under Section 9.2(a) (A) first by the release from the Indemnification Escrow Fund until the Indemnification Escrow Fund has been exhausted, and (B) second, directly from the Stockholders (severally, but not jointly, based on their pro rata portions of the Closing Cash Consideration).

(ii) At the Escrow Release Time, if and to the extent the value of the Indemnification Escrow Fund exceeds the aggregate amount of Unresolved Claims, then the amount of such excess shall be paid to the Stockholders. From and after the Escrow Release Time until such time as all Unresolved Claims are resolved or, if earlier, such time as the Indemnification Escrow Fund has been fully depleted pursuant to 9.4(e)(i), the Purchaser shall promptly deliver to the Stockholders’ Representative a notice, as each Unresolved Claim becomes resolved as either a Payable Claim or a claim that is not a Payable Claim, of such resolution and either (A) if and to the extent such Unresolved Claim has been resolved as a Payable Claim, the Purchaser shall specify the amount of such Payable Claim, and payment of such amount shall be made to the Indemnified Parties from the Indemnification Escrow Fund, and (B) if and to the extent such Unresolved Claim has been resolved as not a Payable Claim, the Purchaser shall specify the amount, if any, corresponding to the amount by which such portion of such Unresolved Claim exceeds the aggregate amount of the remaining Unresolved Claims and the amount of such excess shall be paid to the Stockholders.

55

9.5 Escrow Arrangements.

(a) Escrow Fund. At the Closing, the Purchaser will deposit the Indemnification Escrow Amount with the Escrow Agent, without any act of the Seller Parties, such deposit of the Indemnification Escrow Amount to constitute an escrow fund to be governed by the terms set forth in the Escrow Agreement.

(b) Satisfaction of Claims.

(i) If payment is to be made to a Purchaser Indemnified Party from the Indemnification Escrow Fund pursuant to Section 9.4(e), the Purchaser and the Stockholders’ Representative shall promptly deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent directing the Escrow Agent to release from the Indemnification Escrow Fund to the applicable Purchaser Indemnified Party the amount of cash so payable.

(ii) If payment is to be made to any of the Stockholders from the Indemnification Escrow Fund pursuant to Section 9.4(e), the Purchaser and the Stockholders’ Representative shall promptly deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent directing the Escrow Agent to release to such Stockholder(s) the amount of cash so payable.

9.6 Third Party Claims.

(a) If the Purchaser or the Seller Parties, as applicable, become aware of a third party claim (a “Third Party Claim”) which the applicable Indemnified Party reasonably believes may result in a claim for indemnification by an Indemnified Party pursuant to this Article IX (except for claims with respect to indemnification pursuant to Section 9.2(a)(vi) or for breach of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.9, which shall be governed by Section 8.2), the Indemnified Party shall notify the Purchaser (if the Indemnifying Party is the Purchaser) or the Stockholders’ Representative (if the Indemnifying Party is one or more Stockholders) promptly of such claim (including a reasonable description of such claim).

(b) The Purchaser (if the Indemnifying Party is the Purchaser) or the Stockholders’ Representative (if the Indemnifying Party is one or more Stockholders) shall have the right, at its option within [***] of such notice, to assume the defense of any such matter with its own counsel. During such [***] period, the Indemnified Party may (at the Indemnifying Party’s expense) make such filings, including motions for continuance (and answers if a motion for continuance has not been granted), as may be necessary to preserve the parties’ positions and rights with respect to such claim.

(c) If, in accordance with the foregoing, the Indemnifying Party is entitled to elect and does elect, to assume the defense of and indemnification for any such matter, then:

(i) notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall not be required to pay or otherwise indemnify the Indemnified Party against any attorneys’ fees or other expenses incurred on behalf of the Indemnified Party in connection with such matter following the Indemnifying Party’s election to assume the defense of such matter, unless (x) the Indemnifying Party fails to defend diligently the action or proceeding within [***] after receiving notice of such failure from the Indemnified Party, (y) the Indemnified Party reasonably shall have concluded (upon advice of its counsel) that there may be one or more legal defenses available to such Indemnified Party or other Indemnified Parties that are not available to the Indemnifying Party, or (z) the Indemnified Party reasonably shall have concluded (upon advice of its counsel) that, with respect to such claims, the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party may have different, conflicting, or adverse legal positions or interests;

56

(ii) the Indemnified Party shall, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, make available to the Indemnifying Party all books, records and other documents and materials that are under the direct or indirect control of the Indemnified Party or any of the Indemnified Party’s agents and that the counsel to the Indemnifying Party considers reasonably necessary or desirable for the defense of such matter, and cooperate in all reasonable respects with, and make its employees and advisors reasonably available upon prior written request or otherwise render reasonable assistance to, the Indemnifying Party and its agents;

(iii) the Indemnifying Party shall not, without the written consent of the Indemnified Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, settle or compromise any pending or threatened Third Party Claim in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder (whether or not the Indemnified Party is an actual or potential party to such Third Party Claim) or consent to the entry of any judgment in connection with such Third Party Claim (it being acknowledged that the Indemnified Party’s consent shall not be deemed unreasonably withheld or delayed if such settlement, compromise or judgment (w) does not, to the extent that the Indemnified Party may have any liability with respect to such Third Party Claim, include as an unconditional term thereof the delivery by the claimant or plaintiff to the Indemnified Party of a written release of the Indemnified Party from all liability in respect of such Third Party Claim, (x) includes any statement as to or an admission of fact, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party, (y) in any manner involves any injunctive relief against the Indemnified Party or may materially and adversely affect the Indemnified Party, or (z) the Third Party Claim would reasonably be expected to result in Losses that are not entirely recoverable from the Indemnification Escrow Amount in the Indemnification Escrow Fund under the Escrow Agreement); and

(iv) the Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense of any Third Party Claim with counsel selected by it subject to the Indemnifying Party’s right to direct the defense. Subject to Section 9.6(c)(1), the fees and disbursements of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party.

(d) If the Indemnifying Party elects not to, or is not entitled to, assume the defense of such matter, or fails to defend diligently such matter within [***] after receiving notice of such failure from the Indemnified Party, then the Indemnified Party shall be permitted to defend or compromise such matter with the assistance of counsel selected by it; provided, that the Indemnified Party shall not settle, adjust or compromise such matter, or admit any liability with respect to such matter, without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

9.7 Setoff. In addition to any rights of setoff or other similar rights that Purchaser or any of the other Indemnified Parties may have at common law or otherwise, Purchaser shall have the right to withhold and deduct any sum that has been determined to be owed to any Indemnified Parties under this Article IX from any amount otherwise payable by any Indemnified Party to any Seller Parties pursuant to this Agreement, including such Seller Parties’ portion of any Milestone Payment.

9.8 Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments. All indemnification payments made by Seller under this Agreement shall be treated by the parties as adjustments to the Purchase Price for tax purposes, unless otherwise required by law.

10.1 Appointment of Sellers’ Representative.

(a) Each Stockholder irrevocably constitutes and appoints Stockholders’ Representative as such Stockholders’ true and lawful attorney-in-fact and agent and authorizes Stockholders’ Representative acting for such Stockholder and in such Stockholder’s name, place and stead, in any and all capacities to do and perform every act and thing required or permitted to be done in connection with this Agreement, as fully to all intents and purposes as such Stockholder might or could do in person, including taking any and all action on behalf of such Stockholder from time to time as contemplated hereunder. Each Stockholder grants unto Stockholders’ Representative full power and authority to do and perform each and every act and thing necessary or desirable to be done in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, as fully to all intents and purposes as such Stockholder might or could do in person, hereby ratifying and confirming all Stockholders’ Representative may lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. Each Stockholder acknowledges and agrees that upon execution of this Agreement, upon any delivery by Stockholders’ Representative of any waiver, amendment, agreement, opinion, certificate or other document executed by Stockholders’ Representative, such Stockholder shall be bound by such documents or action as fully as if such Stockholder had executed and delivered such documents. Upon the death, disability or incapacity of Stockholders’ Representative appointed pursuant to Section 10.1, each Stockholder acknowledges and agrees that Stockholders’ Representative’s executor, guardian or legal representative, as the case may be, shall appoint a replacement reasonably believed by such person as capable of carrying out the duties and performing the obligations of Stockholders’ Representative hereunder within [***] of such death, disability or incapacity. Each Stockholder agrees that Purchaser shall be entitled to rely on any action taken by Stockholders’ Representative, on behalf of Stockholders, pursuant to Section 10.1(a) (each, an “Authorized Action”), and that each Authorized Action shall be binding pro rata on each Stockholder as fully as if such Stockholder had taken such Authorized Action. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other agreement, instrument or document related to the transactions contemplated in this Agreement, including agreements, instruments or documents entered into following the Closing (collectively, “Ancillary Agreements”), the Stockholders’ Representative shall only have the power or authority to act regarding matters pertaining to the Stockholders as a group and not individually, shall not have the power or authority to treat any particular Stockholder in a manner different from any other Stockholder (except as consistent with such Stockholder’s pro rata portions of the Closing Cash Consideration or as otherwise in accordance with this Agreement), and shall not have any power or authority to take any action (including without limitation by amending, modifying or waiving any provision of this Agreement or any other Ancillary Agreement or otherwise) or enter into any agreement that (i) adds to or results in an increase of any Stockholder’s indemnity or other obligations or liabilities under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement (including without limitation imposing joint or joint and several liability on the Stockholders or any change to the nature of the indemnity obligations or the limitations on the Stockholders’ liability), (ii) results in the amounts payable under this Agreement or an Ancillary Agreement to any Stockholder being distributed in any manner other than as specified pursuant to this Agreement or an Ancillary Agreement, (iii) alters the consideration payable to any Stockholder pursuant to this Agreement or an Ancillary Agreement (except in accordance with the contingencies, conditions and other provisions set forth in this Agreement), or (iv) binds any Stockholder to any obligations or restrictions applicable to such Stockholder beyond the subject matter of an indemnifiable claim, in each case without such Stockholder’s prior written approval (which the Stockholders’ Representative has no authority to give on behalf of such Stockholder). For the avoidance of doubt, the Stockholders’ Representative consenting to all or a portion of an indemnification claim, or entering into a settlement agreement with respect thereto, in accordance with the procedures, limitations of liability and Stockholders’ Representative authority set forth in this Agreement (as of the date of this Agreement and as amended in compliance the terms of this Agreement) shall not be deemed to implicate or require the prior written approval of Stockholders pursuant to (i) through (iii) of the previous sentence.

10.2 Amendment and Waiver. This Agreement may be amended, and any provision of this Agreement may be waived by an instrument in writing signed by the Stockholders’ Representative, the Company and the Purchaser; provided that any such amendment or waiver will be binding upon Stockholders only if such amendment or waiver is set forth in a writing executed by Stockholders’ Representative, and any such amendment or waiver will be binding upon the Company and Purchaser only if such amendment or waiver is set forth in a writing executed by the Company and Purchaser. No course of dealing between or among any Persons having any interest in this Agreement shall be deemed effective to modify, amend or waive any part of this Agreement or any rights or obligations of any Person under or by reason of this Agreement. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing and no waiver shall be deemed to, nor shall any waiver, constitute a waiver of any other provisions, regardless of whether similar, nor shall any waiver constitute a continuing waiver.

All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed delivered, given and received (a) when delivered in person, (b) when transmitted by email or facsimile (with written confirmation of completed transmission), (c) on the third (3rd) Business Day following the mailing thereof by certified or registered mail (return receipt requested) or (d) when delivered by an express courier (with written confirmation of delivery) to the parties hereto at the following addresses (or to such other address or facsimile number as such party may have specified in a written notice given to the other parties):

10.6 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other party, it being understood that all parties need not sign the same counterpart. Until and unless each party has received a counterpart hereof signed by the other party hereto, this Agreement shall have no effect and no party shall have any right or obligation hereunder (whether by virtue of any other oral or written agreement or other communication). Any signature page delivered electronically or by facsimile (including transmission by Portable Document Format or other fixed image form) shall be binding to the same extent as an original signature page.

10.7 Entire Agreement; Assignment. This Agreement, the exhibits and annexes hereto, the Disclosure Schedule, the other schedules, the non-disclosure agreements and the Ancillary Agreements: (a) constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings both written and oral (including any letter of intent, term sheet or related discussions), among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and (b) shall not be assigned by operation of law or otherwise, except that the Purchaser may assign its rights and delegate its obligations hereunder (i) in connection with a sale of the Purchaser or a sale of all or substantially all of its assets, (ii) to one or more of its Affiliates as long as the Purchaser remains ultimately liable for all of the Purchaser’s obligations hereunder and (iii) to any lender of the Purchaser or its Affiliates as collateral security.

60

10.8 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof, becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement will continue in full force and effect and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances will be interpreted so as reasonably to effect the intent of the parties hereto. The parties further agree to replace such void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such void or unenforceable provision.

10.9 Other Remedies. Except as otherwise set forth herein, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such party, and the exercise by a party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy. Without prejudice to remedies at law, the parties shall be entitled to specific performance or other equitable relief, including injunctive relief, in the event of a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement.

10.10 Arbitration; Submission to Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.

(a) All disputes, claims, or controversies arising out of or relating to the Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements (other than as expressly set forth therein) or any other agreement or document executed and delivered pursuant to the Agreement (other than as expressly set forth therein) or the negotiation, breach, validity or performance hereof and thereof or the Transactions, including claims of fraud or fraud in the inducement, and including as well the determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate, shall be resolved solely and exclusively by binding arbitration administered by JAMS in New York, New York, before a single arbitrator (the “Arbitrator”). Except as modified in this Section, the arbitration shall be administered pursuant to JAMS’s Comprehensive Rules and Procedures. The parties further agree that this arbitration shall apply equally to requests for temporary, preliminary or permanent injunctive relief, except that in the case of temporary or preliminary injunctive relief any party may proceed in court without prior arbitration for the purpose of avoiding immediate and irreparable harm or to enforce its rights under Section 6.2, Section 6.3 or Section 6.4.

(b) The parties covenant and agree that the arbitration hearing shall commence within thirty (30) days of the date on which a written demand for arbitration is filed by any party hereto (the “Filing Date”). The hearing shall be no more than five (5) Business Days. In connection with the arbitration, the Arbitrator shall have the power to order the production of documents by each party and any third-party witnesses. In addition, each party may take up to three (3) depositions as of right, with each deposition limited to eight (8) hours, excluding breaks, and the Arbitrator may grant additional depositions upon good cause shown. For purposes of determining the number of depositions as of right, multiple petitioners or multiple respondents shall each respectively be deemed one party. The Arbitrator shall not have the power to order the answering of interrogatories or the response to requests for admission. The Arbitrator’s award shall be made and delivered within ninety (90) days of the Filing Date, shall be binding and final as between the parties, and a judgment may be entered upon the award in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The Arbitrator’s decision shall set forth a reasoned basis for any award of damages or finding of liability. The parties covenant and agree that the arbitration shall conclude within six (6) months of the Filing Date, and the Arbitrator shall be provided notice of such six-month limit (and agreed to abide by it) prior to her, his or their or her appointment as Arbitrator.

61

(c) The parties will (i) bear their own attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses in connection with the arbitration, and (ii) share equally in the fees and expenses charged by the Arbitrator; provided, that the prevailing party shall be awarded its share of the Arbitrator’s fees and expenses and all other costs and expenses, including attorneys’, consultants’ and experts’ fees; provided, further, that any party unsuccessfully refusing to comply with the award or an order of the Arbitrator shall be liable for costs and expenses, including attorneys’, consultants’ and experts’ fees, incurred by the other party in enforcing the award or order. If the Arbitrator determines a party to be the prevailing party under circumstances where the prevailing party obtained relief on some but not all of the claims and counterclaims, the Arbitrator may award the prevailing party an appropriate percentage of the costs and expenses incurred by the prevailing party.

(d) Subject in all cases to the foregoing, each of the parties hereto irrevocably consents to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state or federal courts located within New York, New York, in connection with any matter based upon, arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the matters contemplated herein, agrees that process may be served upon them in any manner authorized by the laws of the State of New York for such Persons and waives and covenants not to assert or plead any objection which they might otherwise have to such jurisdiction, venue and such process. Each party agrees not to commence any legal proceedings related hereto except in such courts.

10.11 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, regardless of the Laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of laws thereof.

10.12 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY AND ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY HERETO IN NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT HEREOF.

10.13 Rules of Construction. The parties hereto agree that they have been represented by counsel during the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and, therefore, waive the application of any Law, regulation, holding or rule of construction providing that ambiguities in an agreement or other document will be construed against the party drafting such agreement or document.

10.14 No Third Party Beneficiary. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to confer on any Person other than the parties hereto or their respective successors and assigns any rights, remedies, or Liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement except that (i) Article IX shall also be for the benefit of the Indemnified Parties and (ii) Section 6.2, from and after (and subject to the occurrence of) the Closing, shall be for the benefit of the D&O Indemnified Parties, and (iii) Section 6.3 shall also be for the benefit of the Affiliates of the Purchaser (which shall include, from and after the Closing, the Company).

10.15 Tax Advice. Other than as expressly set forth in this Agreement, no party to this Agreement makes any representations or warranties to any other party regarding the Tax treatment of the Transactions pursuant to this Agreement or any of the Tax consequences to any other party of this Agreement or the Transactions. Each party to this Agreement acknowledges that it is relying solely on its own Tax advisors in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions.

10.16 Disclosure Schedule. The Disclosure Schedule shall be arranged in separate parts corresponding to the numbered and lettered sections and subsections contained in this Agreement, and the information disclosed in any numbered or lettered part shall be deemed to relate to and to qualify only the particular representation or warranty of any Seller Party set forth in the corresponding numbered or lettered section or subsection of this Agreement, except to the extent that (a) such information is explicitly cross-referenced in another part of the Disclosure Schedule, or (b) it is readily apparent on the face of the disclosure that such information qualifies another representation and warranty of any Seller Party in this Agreement.

62

10.17 Waiver of Conflicts. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees, on its own behalf and on behalf of its directors, shareholders, partners, officers, employees, and Affiliates that the Company is the client of [***], and not any of the individual Stockholders. After the Closing, it is possible that Firm will represent the Stockholders, the Stockholders’ Representative and their respective Affiliates (individually and collectively, the “Post- Closing Stockholder Group”) in connection with the transactions contemplated herein or in the Indemnification Escrow Agreement, the Indemnification Escrow Amount and any claims made thereunder pursuant to this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement. Purchaser and the Company hereby agree that [***] (or any successor) may represent the Post-Closing Seller Group in the future in connection with issues that may arise under this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement, the administration of the Indemnification Escrow Amount and any claims that may be made thereunder pursuant to this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement. [***] (or any successor) may serve as counsel to all or a portion of the Post-Closing Seller Group or any director, shareholder, partner, officer, employee, representative, or Affiliate of the Post-Closing Seller Group, in connection with any litigation, claim or obligation arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement, or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement. Each of the parties hereto consents thereto, and waives any conflict of interest arising therefrom, and each such party shall cause any Affiliate thereof to consent to waive any conflict of interest arising from such representation. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that such consent and waiver is voluntary, that it has been carefully considered, and that the parties have consulted with counsel or have been advised they should do so in this connection. Communications between the Company and [***] will become the property of the Sellers’ Representative and the Sellers following closing and will not be disclosed to Purchaser without the consent of the Sellers’ Representative.

10.18 Attorney-Client Privilege. Notwithstanding the Closing, Purchaser and the Company agree that neither the Company nor Purchaser shall have the right to assert the attorney-client privilege as to pre-closing and post-closing communications between the Stockholders or the Company (for the Company, only with respect to pre-Closing communications), on one hand, and its counsel, [***], on the other hand, to the extent that the privileged communications relate to this Agreement or any of the ancillary agreements or to the transactions contemplated hereby. The parties agree that only the Stockholders shall be entitled to assert or waive such attorney-client privilege in connection with such communications following the Closing. The files generated and maintained by [***] as a result of [***] representation of the Company in connection with this Agreement or any of the ancillary agreements or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be and become the exclusive property of the Stockholders and shall be segregated from [***] files related to all other elements of its representation of the Company prior to the Closing (which shall remain the property of the Company). The attorney-client privilege may be waived on behalf of the Stockholders only by the Stockholders’ Representative. The foregoing shall not extend to (i) any communication unrelated to this Agreement, any of the ancillary agreements or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) communications between the Stockholders or the Company, on the one hand, and any Person other than [***], on the other hand, or (iii) any post-Closing communications between the Company and [***] or any other legal counsel.
