AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER
 
Agreement entered into as of November 1, 2007 by and among TechTarget, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Buyer”), Catapult Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Buyer (the “Transitory Subsidiary”), and KnowledgeStorm, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”).
 
This Agreement contemplates a merger of the Transitory Subsidiary into the Company.  In such merger, the stockholders of the Company will receive cash and/or common stock of the Buyer in exchange for their capital stock of the Company, as provided herein.
 
Concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and as a condition and inducement to the Buyer’s willingness to enter into this Agreement, the stockholders of the Company listed on Schedule A have entered into Investment Representation Letters in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A.
 
Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in Article IX.
 
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the representations, warranties and covenants herein contained, the Parties agree as follows.
 

Exhibit 99.1
ARTICLE I
 
THE MERGER
 
1.1  The Merger.  Upon and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Transitory Subsidiary shall merge with and into the Company at the Effective Time.  From and after the Effective Time, the separate corporate existence of the Transitory Subsidiary shall cease and the Company shall continue as the Surviving Corporation.  The Merger shall have the effects set forth in Section 259 of the Delaware General Corporation Law.
 
1.2  The Closing.  The Closing shall take place at the offices of Wilmer Cutler Pickering Hale and Dorr LLP, 60 State Street in Boston, Massachusetts, commencing at 9:00 a.m. local time on the Closing Date.
 
1.3  Actions at the Closing.  At the Closing:
 
(a)  the Company shall deliver to the Buyer and the Transitory Subsidiary the various certificates, instruments and documents referred to in Section 5.2;
 
(b)  the Buyer and the Transitory Subsidiary shall deliver to the Company the various certificates, instruments and documents referred to in Section 5.3;
 
(c)  the Surviving Corporation shall file with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware the Certificate of Merger;
 
(d)  the Company shall deliver to the Buyer Investment Representation Letters signed by Qualifying Holders, Acknowledgement and Releases (in the form of Exhibit F) signed by holders of then outstanding In-the-Money Options (other than the 2007 Options) and Consents of Warrantholders (in the form of Exhibit G) signed by all holders of then outstanding Warrants;
 
(e)  the Buyer shall deliver to the Exchange Agent an amount in cash equal to the Maximum Cash Consideration;
 
(f)  the Company shall deliver to the Buyer the employment agreements contemplated by Section 5.2(i);
 
(g)  the Buyer, the Indemnification Representative and the Escrow Agent shall execute and deliver the Escrow Agreement (also to be signed by all Qualifying Holders), and the Buyer shall deliver to the Escrow Agent a certificate for the Escrow Shares being placed in escrow on the Closing Date pursuant to Section 1.10.
 
1.4  Additional Action.  The Surviving Corporation may, at any time after the Effective Time, take any action, including executing and delivering any document, in the name and on behalf of either the Company or the Transitory Subsidiary, in order to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
 
1.5  Conversion of Shares.  At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any Party or the holder of any of the following securities:
 
(a)  Each Preferred Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Dissenting Shares and Preferred Shares held in the Company’s treasury) owned of record by a Qualifying Holder shall be converted into and represent the right to receive:  (i) a number of shares of Buyer Common Stock equal to the aggregate number of Merger Shares divided by the aggregate number of Outstanding Preferred Shares held by Qualifying Holders, (ii) an amount in cash equal to the Series A Liquidation Preference Payments in respect of such share, less the product determined by multiplying the number of Merger Shares issuable with respect to such share pursuant to clause (i) above by the Average Price; and (iii) an amount in cash equal to the Cash Merger Consideration.
 
(b)  Each Preferred Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Dissenting Shares and Preferred Shares held in the Company’s treasury) owned of record by a holder that is not a Qualifying Holder shall be converted into and represent the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the sum of:  (i) the Series A Liquidation Preference Payments in respect of such share (the “Cash Preference Payment”), and (ii) the Cash Merger Consideration.
 
(c)  Each Common Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Dissenting Shares and Common Shares held in the Company’s treasury) shall be converted into and represent the right to receive the Cash Merger Consideration.
 
(d)  At the Closing, as contemplated by Section 1.10, the Company shall withhold, and deposit in escrow pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, all of the Merger Shares otherwise issuable to holders of Preferred Shares pursuant to Section 1.5(a)(i) (the “Escrow Shares”).
 
(e)  In determining the aggregate number of Merger Shares issuable to each holder under Section 1.5(a)(i) above and the cash payable to such holder pursuant to Section 1.5(a)(ii), all Merger Shares issuable to each holder with respect to its Preferred Shares shall be aggregated before determining fractional shares.
 
(f)  For the avoidance of doubt, the maximum amount of consideration payable by the Buyer to holders of capital stock, Options and Warrants of the Company pursuant to this Section 1.5 and Section 1.9 shall be:  (i) a number of Merger Shares equal to $6,000,000 divided by the Average Price, and (ii) cash in the amount of $51,850,000, less the sum of the Transaction Expenses, and Existing SVB Debt (the “Maximum Cash Consideration”), and this Agreement shall be construed in accordance with the foregoing intent.
 
(g)  Each Company Share held in the Company’s treasury immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled and retired without payment of any consideration therefor.
 
(h)  Each share of common stock, $.001 par value per share, of the Transitory Subsidiary issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and thereafter evidence one share of common stock, $.001 par value per share, of the Surviving Corporation.
 
(i)  Each of Buyer and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of shares of capital stock of the Company such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code or any other applicable Tax law (including as contemplated by Section 4.10).  To the extent that amounts are so withheld by the Surviving Corporation or Buyer, as the case may be, such withheld amounts (i) shall be remitted by Buyer or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, to the applicable Governmental Entity and (ii) shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of the shares of capital stock of the Company in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by the Surviving Corporation or Buyer, as the case may be.
 
1.6  Dissenting Shares.
 
(a)  Dissenting Shares shall not be converted into or represent the right to receive Merger Consideration, unless the Company Stockholder holding such Dissenting Shares shall have forfeited his, her or its right to appraisal under the Delaware General Corporation Law or properly withdrawn, his, her or its demand for appraisal.  If such Company Stockholder has so forfeited or withdrawn his, her or its right to appraisal of Dissenting Shares, then (i) as of the occurrence of such event, such holder’s Dissenting Shares shall cease to be Dissenting Shares and shall be converted into and represent the right to receive the applicable Merger Consideration, issuable or payable in respect of such Company Shares pursuant to Section 1.5, and (ii) promptly following the occurrence of such event, the Buyer shall deliver to the Exchange Agent the Merger Consideration which such holder is entitled to receive at Closing pursuant to Section 1.5.
 
(b)  The Company shall give the Buyer (i) prompt notice of any written demands for appraisal of any Company Shares, withdrawals of such demands, and any other instruments that relate to such demands received by the Company and (ii) the opportunity to direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to demands for appraisal under the Delaware General Corporation Law.  The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of the Buyer, make any payment with respect to any demands for appraisal of Company Shares or offer to settle or settle any such demands.
 
1.7  Exchange of Shares.
 
(a)  Prior to the Effective Time, the Buyer shall appoint the Exchange Agent to effect the payment of Merger Consideration (other than the Escrow Shares) in accordance with Sections 1.5, 1.9 and 10.12.  On the Closing Date, the Buyer shall deliver (or cause to be delivered) to the Exchange Agent, in trust for the benefit of holders of Certificates, and holders of the Options and Warrants set forth in Sections 1.9 and 10.12, cash in an amount equal to the Maximum Cash Consideration.  As soon as practicable after the Effective Time, the Buyer shall cause the Exchange Agent to send a notice and a transmittal form to each holder of a Certificate, and each holder of an Option or Warrant entitled to receive Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 1.9 or 10.12, advising such holder of the effectiveness of the Merger and the procedure for surrendering to the Exchange Agent such Certificate (or Option or Warrant, as applicable) in exchange for the Merger Shares and/or Cash Merger Consideration issuable and payable pursuant to Section 1.5, 1.9 or 10.12, as applicable.  Each such holder, upon proper surrender thereof to the Exchange Agent in accordance with the instructions in such notice, shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor (subject to any taxes required to be withheld) the applicable Merger Consideration.  Until properly surrendered, each such Certificate (or Option or Warrant, as applicable) shall be deemed for all purposes to evidence only the right to receive the applicable Merger Consideration issuable or payable pursuant to Section 1.5, 1.9 or 10.12, as applicable.  Holders of Certificates shall not be entitled to receive the applicable Merger Consideration to which they would otherwise be entitled until such Certificates are properly surrendered.
 
(b)  If any Merger Shares are to be issued in the name of a person other than the person in whose name the Certificate surrendered in exchange therefor is registered, it shall be a condition to the issuance of such Merger Shares that (i) the Certificate so surrendered shall be transferable, and shall be properly assigned, endorsed or accompanied by appropriate stock powers, (ii) such transfer shall otherwise be proper and (iii) the person requesting such transfer shall pay to the Exchange Agent any transfer or other taxes payable by reason of the foregoing or establish to the satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such taxes have been paid or are not required to be paid.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Exchange Agent nor any Party shall be liable to a holder of Company Shares for any Merger Consideration issuable to such holder pursuant to Section 1.5 that are delivered to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar laws.
 
(c)  In the event any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, the Buyer shall issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the applicable Merger Consideration issuable in exchange therefor pursuant to Section 1.5.  The Board of Directors of the Buyer may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate to give the Buyer a bond in such sum as it may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against the Buyer with respect to the Certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.
 
(d)  No dividends or other distributions that are payable to the holders of record of Buyer Common Stock as of a date on or after the Closing Date shall be paid to former Company Stockholders entitled by reason of the Merger to receive Merger Shares until such holders surrender their Certificates for certificates representing the Merger Shares.  Upon such surrender, the Buyer shall pay or deliver to the persons in whose name the certificates representing such Merger Shares are issued any dividends or other distributions that are payable to the holders of record of Buyer Common Stock as of a date on or after the Closing Date and which would have been otherwise paid or delivered between the Effective Time and the time of such surrender; provided that no such person shall be entitled to receive any interest on such dividends or other distributions.
 
1.8  Fractional Shares.  No certificates or scrip representing fractional Merger Shares shall be issued to former Company Stockholders upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates, and such former Company Stockholders shall not be entitled to any voting rights, rights to receive any dividends or distributions or other rights as a stockholder of the Buyer with respect to any fractional Merger Shares that would have otherwise been issued to such former Company Stockholders.  In lieu of any fractional Merger Shares that would have otherwise been issued, each former Company Stockholder that would have been entitled to receive a fractional Merger Share shall, upon proper surrender of such person’s Certificates, receive a cash payment equal to the closing price per share of the Buyer Common Stock on the Nasdaq National Market, as reported by Nasdaq, on the business day immediately preceding the Closing Date, multiplied by the fraction of a share that such Company Stockholder would otherwise be entitled to receive.
 
1.9  Options and Warrants.
 
(a)  The Company has taken, or will take prior to the Effective Time, all necessary and appropriate actions so that, consistent with and without any violation of any term of the Option Plan, at the Effective Time, (A) each In-the-Money Option, other than the Change-in-Control Options and 2007 Options, shall automatically be cancelled and terminated as of the Effective Time in exchange for a cash payment to the holders thereof equal to the excess of the Cash Merger Consideration in respect of a Common Share over the per share exercise price of such Option, multiplied by the number of Company Shares that are subject to such Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, (B) each Change-in-Control Option and Waived Option shall be cancelled and terminated without any consideration, (C) each 2007 Option shall automatically be cancelled and terminated in its entirety pursuant to its terms as of the Effective Time in exchange for a cash payment to the holder thereof equal to the excess of the Cash Merger Consideration in respect of a Common Share over the per share exercise price of such Option, multiplied by the number of Common Shares that are subject to the vested portion of such Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, and (D) each Out-of-the-Money Option (other than the Waived Option) shall automatically be cancelled and terminated as of the Effective Time in exchange for a cash payment to the holder thereof equal to the Cash Merger Consideration in respect of a Common Share, multiplied by the number of Common Shares that are subject to such Option immediately prior to the Effective Time.  The cash payments described in this Section 1.9(a) shall be subject to applicable tax withholding.
 
(b)  The Company has taken, or will take prior to the Effective Time, all necessary and appropriate actions so that, consistent with and without any violation of any term of the applicable warrant agreement, at the Effective Time, each Warrant (other than the SVB Warrant) outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically be cancelled and terminated as of the Effective Time in exchange for a cash payment to the holders thereof equal to the excess of the Cash Merger Consideration in respect of a Common Share over the per share exercise price of such Warrant, multiplied by the number of Company Shares that are subject to such Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time.  The cash payments described in this Section 1.9(b) shall be subject to applicable tax withholding.
 
(c)  The Company has taken, or will take prior to the Effective Time, all necessary and appropriate actions so that, at the Effective Time, the SVB Warrant dated November 6, 2002 and held by Silicon Valley Bank (the “SVB Warrant”) shall automatically be cancelled and terminated as of the Effective Time in exchange for a cash payment to the holders thereof equal to the excess of the sum of the Cash Preference Payment and Cash Merger Consideration over the exercise price of the SVB Warrant, multiplied by the number of Preferred Shares then subject to the SVB Warrant.  The cash payments described in this Section 1.9(c) shall be subject to applicable tax withholding.
 
(d)  The Company shall obtain, prior to the Closing, the consent from each holder of a Change-in-Control Option, Waived Option and Warrant to the treatment of such Options and Warrants pursuant to the provisions of Section 1.9(a), (b) or (c), as applicable.  The Company shall use Reasonable Best Efforts to obtain, prior to the Closing, the consent from each other holder of an In-the-Money Option (excluding the 2007 Options) to the treatment of such Option pursuant to the provisions of Section 1.9(a).
 
1.10  Escrow.  On the Closing Date, reflecting the agreement of the Qualifying Holders pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, the Buyer shall deliver to the Escrow Agent a certificate (issued in the name of the Escrow Agent or its nominee) representing the Escrow Shares issuable pursuant to Section 1.5, for the purpose of securing the indemnification obligations of the Indemnifying Stockholders set forth in this Agreement.  The Escrow Shares shall be held by the Escrow Agent under the Escrow Agreement pursuant to the terms thereof.  The Escrow Shares shall be held as a trust fund and shall not be subject to any lien, attachment, trustee process or any other judicial process of any creditor of any party, and shall be held and disbursed solely for the purposes and in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement.
 
1.11  Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws.
 
(a)  The Certificate of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation immediately following the Effective Time shall be amended so that such Certificate of Incorporation is identical to the Certificate of Incorporation of the Transitory Subsidiary immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that (i) the name of the corporation set forth therein shall be changed to the name of the Company and (ii) the identity of the incorporator shall be deleted.
 
(b)  The By-laws of the Surviving Corporation immediately following the Effective Time shall be the same as the By-laws of the Transitory Subsidiary immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that the name of the corporation set forth therein shall be changed to the name of the Company.
 
1.12  No Further Rights.  From and after the Effective Time, no Company Shares shall be deemed to be outstanding, and holders of Certificates shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except as provided herein or by law.
 
1.13  Closing of Transfer Books.  At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed and no transfer of Company Shares shall thereafter be made.  If, after the Effective Time, Certificates are presented to the Buyer, the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent, they shall be cancelled and exchanged for the applicable Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 1.5, subject to Section 1.10 and to applicable law in the case of Dissenting Shares.

(a)  An Indemnified Party shall give written notification to the Indemnifying Party of the commencement of any Third Party Action.  Such notification shall be given within 20 calendar days after receipt by the Indemnified Party of notice of such Third Party Action, and shall describe in reasonable detail (to the extent known by the Indemnified Party) the facts constituting the basis for such Third Party Action, the date Damages were either paid or allegedly arose or were accrued, and the amount of the claimed damages; provided, however, that no delay or failure on the part of the Indemnified Party in so notifying the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability or obligation hereunder except to the extent of any damage or liability caused by or arising out of such failure.  Within 20 calendar days after delivery of such notification, the Indemnifying Party may, upon written notice thereof to the Indemnified Party, assume control of the defense of such Third Party Action; provided that (i) the Indemnifying Party may only assume control of such defense if (A) it acknowledges in writing to the Indemnified Party that any damages, fines, costs or other liabilities that may be assessed against the Indemnified Party in connection with such Third Party Action constitute Damages for which the Indemnified Party shall be indemnified pursuant to this Article VI and (B) the amount of Damages reasonably expected to be incurred by the Indemnified Party if the Third Party Action is determined adversely to it is less than or equal to the amount of Damages for which the Indemnifying Party is liable under this Article VI and (ii) the Indemnifying Party may not assume control of the defense of a Third Party Action involving criminal liability or in which injunctive or other equitable relief is sought against the Indemnified Party.  If the Indemnifying Party does not, or is not permitted under the terms hereof to, so assume control of the defense of a Third Party Action, the Indemnified Party shall control such defense.  The Non-controlling Party may participate in, but not control, such defense, but shall do so at its own expense.  The Controlling Party shall keep the Non-controlling Party advised of the status of such Third Party Action and the defense thereof and shall consider in good faith recommendations made by the Non-controlling Party with respect thereto.  The Non-controlling Party shall furnish the Controlling Party with such information as it may have with respect to such Third Party Action (including copies of any summons, complaint or other pleading which may have been served on such party and any written claim, demand, invoice, billing or other document evidencing or asserting the same) and shall otherwise cooperate with and assist the Controlling Party in the defense of such Third Party Action.  The fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Party with respect to a Third Party Action shall be considered Damages for purposes of this Agreement if (i) the Indemnified Party controls the defense of such Third Party Action pursuant to the terms of this Section 6.3(a) or (ii) the Indemnifying Party assumes control of such defense and the Indemnified Party reasonably concludes that the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party have conflicting interests or different defenses available with respect to such Third Party Action.  The Indemnifying Party shall not agree to any settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any Third Party Action without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.  The Indemnified Party shall not agree to any settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any such Third Party Action without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
 
(b)  In order to seek indemnification under this Article VI, an Indemnified Party shall deliver a Claim Notice to the Indemnifying Party.  If the Indemnified Party is the Buyer, the Indemnifying Party shall deliver a copy of the Claim Notice to the Escrow Agent.

For purposes of this Article VI, the “Value” of any Escrow Shares delivered in satisfaction of an indemnity claim shall be the Average Price (subject to equitable adjustment in the event of any stock split, stock dividend, reverse stock split or similar event affecting the Buyer Common Stock after the Closing), multiplied by the number of such Escrow Shares.
 
(d)  During the 30 calendar day period following the delivery of a Response that reflects a Dispute, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall use good faith efforts to resolve the Dispute.  If the Dispute is not resolved within such 30 calendar day period, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall discuss in good faith the submission of the Dispute to binding arbitration, and if the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party agree in writing to submit the Dispute to such arbitration, then the provisions of Section 6.3(e) shall become effective with respect to such Dispute.  The provisions of this Section 6.3(d) shall not obligate the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party to submit to arbitration or any other alternative dispute resolution procedure with respect to any Dispute, and in the absence of an agreement by the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party to arbitrate a Dispute, such Dispute shall be resolved in a state or federal court sitting in Boston, Massachusetts, in accordance with Section 10.11.  If the Indemnified Party is the Buyer, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall deliver to the Escrow Agent, promptly following the resolution of the Dispute (whether by mutual agreement, arbitration, judicial decision or otherwise), a written notice executed by both parties instructing the Escrow Agent as to what (if any) portion of the Escrow Shares shall be distributed to the Buyer and/or the Indemnifying Stockholders (which notice shall be consistent with the terms of the resolution of the Dispute).
 
(e)  If, as set forth in Section 6.3(d), the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party agree to submit any Dispute to binding arbitration, the arbitration shall be conducted by a single arbitrator (the “Arbitrator”) in accordance with the Commercial Rules in effect from time to time and the following provisions:
 
(i)  In the event of any conflict between the Commercial Rules in effect from time to time and the provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall prevail and be controlling.

(iii)  No depositions or other discovery shall be conducted in connection with the arbitration.
 
(iv)  As soon as practicable, after the conclusion of the arbitration hearing, the Arbitrator shall prepare and distribute to the parties a writing setting forth the arbitral award and the Arbitrator’s reasons therefor.  Any award rendered by the Arbitrator shall be final, conclusive and binding upon the parties, and judgment thereon may be entered and enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction (subject to Section 10.11), provided that the Arbitrator shall have no power or authority to grant injunctive relief, specific performance or other equitable relief.
 
(v)  The Arbitrator shall have no power or authority, under the Commercial Rules or otherwise, to (x) modify or disregard any provision of this Agreement, including the provisions of this Section 6.3(e), or (y) address or resolve any issue not submitted by the parties.
 
(vi)  In connection with any arbitration proceeding pursuant to this Agreement, each party shall bear its own costs and expenses, except that the fees and costs of the AAA and the Arbitrator, the costs and expenses of obtaining the facility where the arbitration hearing is held, and such other costs and expenses as the Arbitrator may determine to be directly related to the conduct of the arbitration and appropriately borne jointly by the parties (which shall not include any party’s attorneys’ fees or costs, witness fees (if any), costs of investigation and similar expenses) shall be shared equally by the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party.
