THE TRANSACTION

2.1 The Transaction.

(a) Effective as of the Closing, and upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, the Seller shall convey, assign, transfer and deliver to Purchaser (directly and/or through its Affiliate, Silicom Inc.), and Purchaser shall assume and acquire from the Seller, all of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to the Sold Assets, free and clear of any Encumbrances, in exchange for: (i) the Closing Consideration, (ii) the Earn-Out Consideration, and (iii) the assumption by the Purchaser of the Assumed Liabilities. To the extent Seller does not have the power or right, either by contract, by statute or at common law unilaterally to assign, transfer or delegate contracts, software, covenants, permits, licenses, assets or Intellectual Property to the Purchaser (the "Transfer Restricted Assets"), and without in any way limiting the conditions precedent to the obligations of the Purchaser set forth in Section ‎3.2, the Seller shall use best efforts to obtain the consent of the relevant customer, clients, licensor, governmental entity or other party to the Transfer Restricted Assets being sold or transferred, but shall not be liable or responsible or suffer any decrease or reduction of the Closing Consideration or Earn-Out consideration paid or payable under this Agreement as the direct result of such inability to assign, transfer, or delegate the relevant Transfer Restricted Assets. The Parties agree and acknowledge that the effect of any such obstacles to transfer or assignment of the Transfer Restricted Assets will be accounted for by the subsequent operating results and by their resultant effect on the Earn-Out Consideration.

(b) All of the assets assumed and acquired by the Purchaser from the Seller shall be assumed and acquired by Silicom Ltd., except as expressly stated otherwise.

The Seller hereby authorizes the Purchaser during the relevant Lock-Up Period to cause any transfer agent for the Locked-Up Securities to decline to transfer, and to note stop transfer restrictions on the stock register and other records relating to the Locked-Up Securities subject to the Lock-Up Period, if such transfer would constitute a violation or breach of this Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, none of the provisions set forth in this Agreement, shall be deemed a waiver by any party to this Agreement of any right or remedy which such party may have at law or in equity based on any other Person’s intentional misrepresentation, willful misconduct or fraud, nor will any such provisions limit, or be deemed to limit: (a) the amounts of recovery sought or awarded in any such claim; (b) the time period during which any such claim may be brought; or (c) the recourse which any such party may seek against another Person with respect to such a claim.

9.2 Fees and Expenses.

Subject to ‎Article VII, each party to this Agreement shall bear and pay all fees, costs and expenses that have been incurred or that are incurred in the future by such party in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including fees of attorneys, financial advisors or brokers, if any; provided, however, that the Seller shall bear all such fees, costs and expenses of the Selling Shareholders.

9.3 Taxes; Withholding.

(a) All applicable taxes all recording and filing fees resulting from the contemplated transaction which are borne by the Seller or Selling Shareholders will be paid by them. The parties, together with their respective legal and tax advisors, will coordinate their efforts to structure the transactions and payments described herein to the extent possible to obtain the most favorable treatment possible for the parties.

(b) Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, all applicable Taxes (including income Taxes) and all recording and filing fees that may be imposed, assessed or payable by reason of the operation or as a result of this Agreement including the sales, transfers, leases, rentals, licenses, and assignments contemplated hereby shall be borne by the Parties upon which such Taxes are imposed. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Closing Consideration and, to the extent applicable, the Earn-Out Consideration, which shall be paid by the Purchaser is inclusive of all Taxes (including indirect Taxes, Sales Taxes and any similar Taxes) to be borne by the Purchaser and the Purchaser shall not be liable for any additional fees or Taxes with respect to this Agreement and the transactions referenced herein.

(c) The Purchaser and Escrow Agent, as applicable, shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as each of them determines in good faith are required to be deducted or withheld therefrom or in connection therewith under any applicable Legal Requirement. To the extent such amounts are so deducted or withheld and paid to the appropriate Tax authority when due in accordance with any applicable Legal Requirement, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as having been paid to the Person to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid.

9.4 Notices.

Any notice or other communication required or permitted to be delivered to any party under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed properly delivered, given and received by the receiving party: (i) 3 Business Days after being sent by registered, certified or first class mail delivery; (ii) upon delivery, if sent by messenger, and (iii) upon transmission and electronic confirmation of receipt, or (if transmitted and received on a day which is not a Business Day) on the first Business Day (at the receiving end) following transmission and electronic confirmation of receipt, if sent via facsimile or email; provided, however, that any notice of change of address shall only be valid upon receipt.
