On or before the expiration of the Review Period, the Escrow Representative shall deliver to Parent a written statement accepting or disputing the Post-Closing Statement. In the event that the Escrow Representative shall dispute the Post-Closing Statement, such statement shall include a detailed itemization of the Escrow Representative’s objections and the reasons therefor (such statement, a “Dispute Statement”). Any component of the Post-Closing Statement that is not disputed in a Dispute Statement shall be final and binding on the parties hereto and not subject to appeal. If the Escrow Representative does not deliver a Dispute Statement to Parent within the Review Period or delivers a statement accepting the Post-Closing Statement, the Post-Closing Statement shall be final and binding on the parties hereto and not subject to appeal.

(d)Dispute Resolution. If the Escrow Representative delivers a Dispute Statement during the Review Period, Parent and the Escrow Representative shall promptly meet and attempt in good faith to resolve their differences with respect to the disputed items set forth in the Dispute Statement during the thirty (30) calendar days immediately following Parent’s receipt of the Dispute Statement, or such longer period as Parent and the Escrow Representative may mutually agree (the “Resolution Period”). Any such disputed items that are resolved by Parent and the Escrow Representative during the Resolution Period shall be final and binding on the parties hereto and not subject to appeal. If Parent and the Escrow Representative do not resolve all such disputed items by the end of the Resolution Period, Parent and the Escrow Representative shall submit all items remaining in dispute with respect to the Dispute Statement to KPMG LLP or any other nationally recognized independent accounting firm upon which Parent and the Escrow Representative shall reasonably agree (the “Accounting Firm”) for review and resolution. The Accounting Firm shall act as an expert and not an arbitrator. The Accounting Firm shall make all calculations in accordance with the practices used in preparation of the Post-Closing Statement, shall determine only those items remaining in dispute between Parent and the Escrow Representative, and shall only be permitted or authorized to determine an amount with respect to any such disputed item that is equal to or between the amount of such disputed item as proposed by Parent in the Post-Closing Statement or the amount of such disputed item as proposed by the Escrow Representative in the Dispute Statement. Each of Parent and the Escrow Representative shall (i) enter into a customary engagement letter with the Accounting Firm at the time such dispute is submitted to the Accounting Firm and otherwise cooperate with the Accounting Firm, (ii) have the opportunity to submit a written statement in support of their respective positions with respect to such disputed items, to provide supporting material to the Accounting Firm in defense of their respective positions with respect to such disputed items and to submit a written statement responding to the other party’s position with respect to such disputed items and (iii) subject to customary confidentiality and indemnity agreements, provide the Accounting Firm with access to their respective books, records, personnel and representatives and such other information as the Accounting Firm may require in order to render its determination. The Accounting Firm shall be instructed to deliver to Parent and the Escrow Representative a written determination (such determination to include a worksheet setting forth all material calculations used in arriving at such determination and to be based solely on information provided to the Accounting Firm by Parent and the Escrow Representative) of the disputed items within thirty (30) calendar days of receipt of the disputed items,

15



which determination shall be final and binding on the parties hereto and not subject to appeal. The Escrow Representative (on behalf of the Company Stockholders) and Parent shall pay the portion of the fees and costs of the Accounting Firm (“Accountant Costs”), if any, determined by multiplying the amount of the Accountant Costs by a fraction the numerator of which is (with respect to each party) (A) the positive difference between (1) the aggregate Total Consideration calculated using the amounts submitted by such party to the Accounting Firm on the Post-Closing Statement or Dispute Statement, as applicable, and (2) the determination of the actual Total Consideration made by the Accounting Firm, and the denominator of which is (B) the aggregate difference between the amounts of Total Consideration as calculated using the amounts on each party’s submission of the Post-Closing Statement or Dispute Statement, as applicable.

(e)Post-Closing Payments.

(i)Upon the final determination of (A) the Company Third-Party Expenses, Company Transaction Expenses and Parent Transaction Expenses, (B) the Unpaid Pre-Closing Taxes, (C) the Closing Indebtedness, (D) the Adjusted Net Equity Adjustment Amount and (E) the amount of any Excess Company Bridge Amount pursuant to this Section 1.8:

(A)if the Total Consideration calculated using the amounts finally determined pursuant to this Section 1.8 is greater than the Total Consideration calculated using the amounts set forth in the Closing Statement (the difference between such amounts, the “Post-Closing Adjustment Excess”), then the Company Stockholders shall be entitled to receive such Post-Closing Adjustment Excess from Parent under this Section 1.8(e);
(B)if the Total Consideration calculated using the amounts set forth in the Closing Statement is less than the Total Consideration calculated using the amounts finally determined pursuant to this Section 1.8 (the difference between such amounts, the “Post-Closing Adjustment Deficit”), then Parent shall be entitled to receive such Post-Closing Adjustment Deficit from the Company Stockholders under this Section 1.8(e); and
(C)if the Total Consideration calculated using the amounts set forth in the Closing Statement is equal to the Total Consideration calculated using the amounts finally determined pursuant to this Section 1.8, then no payments shall be made pursuant to this Section 1.8(e).

(ii)Within five (5) Business Days after the determinations set forth in clause (i) of this Section 1.8(e), either (A) Parent shall, in the event there is a Post-Closing Adjustment Excess, deposit or shall cause to be deposited with the Paying Agent, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, an amount in cash equal to the Post-Closing Adjustment Excess, which shall be payable to the Company Stockholders in accordance with Section 1.7; or (B) Parent and the Escrow Representative shall, in the event there is a Post-Closing Adjustment Deficit, provide a joint written instruction to the Escrow Agent to deliver an amount in cash equal to the Post-Closing Adjustment Deficit from the Escrow Fund, which shall be deemed to be deducted from the portion of the Escrow Fund attributable to each Company Stockholder based on such holder’s Pro Rata Escrow Portion of the Escrow Fund. For avoidance of doubt, any recovery of the Post-Closing Adjustment Deficit shall not be subject to any of limitations set forth in Sections 7.3(a) or (b).

(iii)Any payment made under this Section 1.8, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, shall be treated for all Tax purposes as an adjustment to the Total Consideration.

1.9    Dissenting Shares

(a)     Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, any shares of Company Capital Stock held by a holder who has not effectively withdrawn or lost such holder’s appraisal, dissenters’ or similar rights for such shares under the applicable provisions of Delaware Law or the California Corporations Code (“California Law”), as applicable (collectively, the “Dissenting Shares”), shall not be converted into or represent a right to receive the applicable consideration for Company Capital Stock set forth in Section 1.7 hereof, but the holder thereof shall only be entitled to such rights as are provided by Delaware Law and California Law.

(b)     Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 1.9(a) hereof, if any holder of Dissenting Shares shall effectively withdraw or lose (through failure to perfect or otherwise) such holder’s appraisal or dissenters’ rights under Delaware Law and California Law, as applicable, then, as of the later of the Effective Time and the occurrence of such event, such holder’s shares shall automatically be converted into and represent only the right to receive the consideration for Company Capital Stock, as applicable, set forth in Section 1.7 hereof, if any, without interest thereon, and subject to the provisions of Section 7.4 hereof, upon surrender of the certificate representing such shares.

(c)     The Company shall give Parent (i) prompt notice of any written demand for appraisal received by the Company pursuant to the applicable provisions of Delaware Law or California Law and (ii) the opportunity to direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Parent shall not, except with the prior written consent of the Escrow Representative (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), make any Dissenting Share Payments (and with respect to clause (y) of the previous sentence, such amounts shall not be deemed to be Dissenting Share Payments absent such consent); provided, that Parent may pay or incur amounts described in clauses (x) and (y) of the previous sentence up to an aggregate of $200,000 without the prior written consent of the Escrow Representative (“Unconsented Payments”); provided, further, that only 75% of the amount of each such Unconsented Payment shall be deemed to be a Dissenting Share Payment, unless Parent has received prior to the Effective Time a duly executed Joinder Agreement from the Company Stockholders constituting the holders of not less than 95% of the shares of Company Capital Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, in which case only 50% of the amount of each such Unconsented Payment shall be deemed to be a Dissenting Share Payment.

Subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, as soon as commercially practicable after the Effective Time, the Paying Agent shall mail or otherwise deliver to each Company Stockholder, at the address set forth opposite such Company Stockholder’s name on the Spreadsheet, a stockholder letter of transmittal in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit G (the “Letter of Transmittal”), and, to the extent such Company Stockholder has not already executed and delivered a Joinder Agreement to Parent, a Joinder Agreement to each Company Stockholder at the address set forth opposite such Company Stockholder’s name on the Spreadsheet. After receipt of such Letter of Transmittal, Joinder Agreement and any other documents that Parent or the Paying Agent may reasonably require in order to effect the exchange (the “Exchange Documents”), such Company Stockholder will surrender the certificates representing his, her or its shares of Company Preferred Stock (the “Company Stock Certificates”) to the Paying Agent for cancellation together with duly completed and validly executed Exchange Documents. Upon surrender of a Company Stock Certificate for cancellation to the Paying Agent, together with such Exchange Documents, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and subject to the terms of Section 1.10(d) hereof, the holder of such Company Stock Certificate shall be entitled to receive from the Paying Agent in exchange therefor, the cash constituting that portion of the Total Consideration to which such Company Stockholder is entitled pursuant to Section 1.7 hereof less appropriate tax withholding amounts, and the Company Stock Certificate so surrendered shall be cancelled. Until so surrendered, after the Effective Time, each Company Stock Certificate will be deemed, for all corporate purposes thereafter, to evidence only the right to receive the consideration provided for in this Article I. No portion of the Total Consideration will be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Company Stock Certificate with respect to shares of Company Preferred Stock formerly represented thereby until the holder of record of such Company Stock Certificate shall surrender such Company Stock Certificate and the Exchange Documents pursuant hereto.

(d)    Transfers of Ownership. If the cash payment or check evidencing the cash to be paid pursuant to Section 1.7 hereof is to be made to a Person other than the Person whose name is reflected on the Company Stock Certificate surrendered in exchange therefor, it will be a condition of the issuance thereof that the certificate so surrendered will be properly endorsed and otherwise in proper form for transfer and that the Person requesting such exchange will have paid to Parent or any agent designated by it any transfer or other taxes required by reason of the payment of any portion of the Total Consideration in any name other than that of the registered holder of the certificate surrendered, or established to the satisfaction of Parent or any agent designated by it that such tax has been paid or is not payable.

(e)    Paying Agent to Return Merger Consideration. At any time following the last day of the six (6) month period following the Effective Time, Parent shall be entitled to require the Paying Agent to deliver to Parent or its designated successor or assign any portion of the Total Consideration that has been deposited with the Paying Agent pursuant to Section 1.10(b) hereof, and not disbursed pursuant to Section 1.10(c) hereof, and thereafter the Company Stockholders shall be entitled

18



to look only to Parent (subject to the terms of Section 1.10(f) hereof) as general creditors thereof with respect to any and all cash amounts that may be payable to such Persons pursuant to Section 1.7 hereof. No interest shall be payable for the cash amounts delivered to Parent pursuant to the provisions of this Section 1.10(e) and which are subsequently delivered to the Company Stockholders.

(f)No Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 1.10, none of the Paying Agent, the Surviving Corporation or any other party hereto shall be liable to a Company Stockholder for any amount paid to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law.

1.11    No Further Ownership Rights in Company Capital Stock. The portion of the Total Consideration, if any, paid or payable in respect of the surrender for exchange of shares of Company Capital Stock in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to be full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such shares of Company Capital Stock, and there shall be no further registration of transfers on the records of the Surviving Corporation of shares of Company Capital Stock that were outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, stock certificates that previously represented shares of Company Capital Stock are presented to the Surviving Corporation for any reason, they shall be cancelled and, if they represented shares of Company Preferred Stock, exchanged as provided in this Article I.

1.12    Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates Stock. In the event any Company Stock Certificates shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, the Paying Agent shall issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed certificates or agreements, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the holder thereof, such consideration, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 1.7 hereof or the Spreadsheet, as applicable; provided, however, that the Paying Agent shall, as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, require the Company Stockholder who is the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed certificates to deliver a bond in such amount as it may reasonably direct, indemnifying Parent and Paying Agent against any claim that may be made against Parent or the Paying Agent with respect to the certificates alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

1.13    Withholding Taxes. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company and, on its behalf, Parent, the Surviving Corporation, the Paying Agent and the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration payable or otherwise deliverable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as may be required to be deducted or withheld therefrom under any provision of U.S. federal, state, local or non-U.S. tax law or under any applicable legal requirement, and to request and be provided any necessary tax forms, including IRS Form W-9 or the appropriate version of IRS Form W-8, as applicable, or any similar information. To the extent any such amounts are so deducted or withheld and paid over to the appropriate Governmental Entity, 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.

(v)any claim or threatened claim by any actual or purported Company Stockholder relating to any alleged action or failure to act on its behalf by the Escrow Representative or asserting any right to receive any portion of the Escrow Fund on an accelerated basis rather than in accordance with the terms of this Article VII;

(vii)(A) any fraud committed by the Company or any of its Affiliates in connection with this Agreement or the Certificates or (B) any knowing and willful breach of this Agreement or the Certificates committed by the Company or any of its Affiliates;

(b)    Notwithstanding Section 7.2(a) or anything else in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement shall limit the liability of any Indemnifying Party who is a Company Stockholder committing, or having actual knowledge of, any fraud or knowing and willful breach of this Agreement or the Certificates for any Losses incurred or sustained by the Indemnified Parties, or any of them (including the Company), as a result of such fraud or knowing and willful breach, provided that the provisions of Article VII shall not apply with respect to (and shall not be a basis of recourse for) any such Losses.

(c)    For the purposes of this Article VII only, solely when determining the amount of Losses suffered by an Indemnified Party as a result of any breach, inaccuracy or failure (but not for purposes of determining whether such breach, inaccuracy or failure has occurred), any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement given or made by the Company or any Indemnifying Party that is qualified or limited in scope as to materiality or Material Adverse Effect (including the definition of Material Contracts), such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement shall be deemed to be made or given without such qualification or limitation.

63




(d)    No Indemnifying Party (or any affiliate thereof) shall have any right of contribution, indemnification or right of advancement from the Company, the Surviving Corporation or Parent with respect to any Loss claimed by an Indemnified Party against such Indemnifying Party.

(e)    This Article VII shall constitute the exclusive remedy after the Effective Time for recovery of Losses by the Indemnified Parties pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby for any and all Losses, claims and causes of action relating to any of the Indemnifiable Matters or any other matter related to this Agreement; provided, however, that (i) this Section 7.2(e) shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver by any party of any right to specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies; (ii) nothing in this Agreement shall limit the liability of any Indemnifying Party who is a Company Stockholder (and this Article VII shall not be the sole and exclusive remedy in respect of such Indemnifying Party) in respect of any Losses arising in connection with the matters described in Section 7.2(b) hereof; and (iii) nothing in this Agreement shall limit the liability of any Indemnifying Party under any Related Agreement.

7.3    Maximum Payments; Remedy

(a)    No claim for indemnification may be made under Section7.2(a)(i) or Section 7.2(a)(ii) (other than recovery under Section 7.2(a)(i) or Section 7.2(a)(ii) for Losses resulting from any breach or inaccuracy of the Surviving Representations, or any fraud or knowing and willful breach with respect to this Agreement or the Certificates, whether or not pursuant to Section 7.2(a)(vii) and/or Section 7.2(b)), unless and until the aggregate amount of Losses of the Indemnified Parties that may be claimed thereunder (together with any Losses that may be claimed under any other subsection of Section 7.2(a)) exceeds $285,000 (the “Threshold”), and once such Threshold has been reached, the Indemnifying Parties shall be liable to the Indemnified Parties for the full amount of all Losses, including those that comprised any portion of the Threshold.

(b)    Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 7.3(b), the maximum amount that the Indemnified Parties may recover from each Indemnifying Party under Section 7.2(a)(i) and Section 7.2(a)(x) shall be limited to an amount equal to such Indemnifying Party’s Pro Rata Escrow Portion of one hundred percent (100%) of the Escrow Amount; provided, however, that (i) for breaches of Surviving Representations or any fraud or knowing and willful breach with respect to this Agreement or the Certificates pursuant to Section 7.2(a)(vii), the maximum amount that the Indemnified Parties may recover from each Indemnifying Party shall be limited to an amount equal to the sum of (A) such Indemnifying Party’s Pro Rata Escrow Portion of one hundred percent (100%) of the Escrow Amount and (B) one hundred percent (100%) of the Closing Cash Consideration actually received by such Indemnifying Party, and (ii) for breaches of the representations and warranties contained in Section 2.14 (Intellectual Property) hereof, the maximum amount that the Indemnified Parties may recover from each Indemnifying Party shall be limited to the sum of (A) such Indemnifying Party’s Pro Rata Escrow Portion of one hundred percent (100%) of the Escrow Amount and (B) an amount of the Closing Cash Consideration actually received by such Indemnifying Party equal to five percent (5%) of such Indemnifying Party’s Pro Rata Indemnity Portion of the Total Consideration.

(c)    Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 7.3(c), the maximum amount that the Indemnified Parties may recover from each Indemnifying Party under Sections 7.2(a)(ii) through Section 7.2(a)(ix) is an amount equal to the sum of (A) such Indemnifying Party’s Pro Rata Escrow Portion of one hundred percent (100%) of the Escrow Amount and (B) one hundred percent (100%) of the Closing Cash Consideration actually received by such Indemnifying Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) nothing in this Agreement shall limit the liability of any Indemnifying Party who is a Company Stockholder (and this Article VII shall not be the sole and exclusive remedy in respect of such Indemnifying Party) in respect of any Losses arising in connection with the matters described in

64



Section 7.2(b) hereof; and (B) nothing in this Agreement shall limit the liability of any Indemnifying Party under any Related Agreement.
 
(d)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, in no event shall any Indemnifying Party who is an Executive Transaction Bonus Recipient be liable under this Agreement for amounts in excess of such Indemnifying Party’s Pro Rata Escrow Portion of one hundred percent (100%) of the Escrow Amount.

(e)    Nothing in this Article VII shall limit the Liability of any party hereto for any knowing and willful breach of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement or any Related Agreement if the Merger does not close.

(f)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the parties hereto agree and acknowledge that any Indemnified Party may bring a claim for indemnification for any Loss under this Article VII notwithstanding the fact that such Indemnified Party had Knowledge of the breach, event or circumstance giving rise to such Loss prior to the Closing or waived any condition to the Closing related thereto.

(g)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, all claims for indemnification by an Indemnified Party for Losses pursuant to this Article VII shall be satisfied (i) first, from the Escrow Fund and (ii) second, to the extent permitted under, and subject to the limitations of, this Section 7.3, against the Indemnifying Parties who are Company Stockholders directly, but only to the extent that such Losses cannot be recovered from the Escrow Fund.

(h)    No Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnification under Article VII for punitive or exemplary damages unless such damages are payable in respect of a Third Party Claim for which such Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification under this Article VII.

(i)    Losses shall be calculated net of actual recoveries received by or on behalf of Parent or Surviving Corporation under insurance policies (net of any actual costs of recovery or collection, deductibles, retroactive premium adjustments, reimbursement obligations or other costs directly related to the insurance claim and deductibles) or any rights of indemnification or contribution; provided, however, that neither Parent nor the Surviving Corporation shall have any obligation to take any action to obtain such payments (except as contemplated in Section 5.22(b)).

(j)    Any indemnification hereunder for Losses with respect to Taxes shall not include any Losses with respect to Taxes that arise as a result of the continuation of conduct related to Taxes after the Closing.
For the avoidance of doubt, (i) if and solely to the extent the amount of any Loss is recovered by an Indemnified Party through the actual payment of a Payable Claim (as defined below) 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 and (ii) if and solely to the extent that any Loss in connection with an Indemnifiable Matter was specifically taken into account in connection with calculations of the Adjusted Net Equity Amount, Company Third-Party Expenses, Closing Indebtedness, or the Unpaid Pre-Closing Taxes, the same amount of such Loss may not be recovered under Article VII, but, in the case of the immediately preceding clauses (i) and (ii), the amount, if any, of Loss that exceeds the amount already recovered under clause (i) or already taken into account under clause (ii) shall be recoverable on and subject to the terms and conditions of this Article VII.

7.4    Claims for Indemnification; Resolution of Conflicts

(a)    Making a Claim for Indemnification; Officer’s Certificate. Parent (on behalf of itself and/or any other Indemnified Parties) may seek recovery of Losses pursuant to this Article VII by delivering to the Escrow Representative (and, in the case of recovery sought from fewer than all of the Indemnifying Parties, delivering to the applicable Indemnifying Parties) an Officer’s Certificate in respect of such claim (and, in the case of a claim against the Escrow Fund, with a copy delivered simultaneously to the Escrow Agent). 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” shall mean a certificate signed by any officer of Parent: (i) stating that an Indemnified Party has paid, sustained or incurred or it is reasonably likely that it will have to pay, sustain or incur Losses and including, to the extent reasonably practicable, a non-binding, preliminary estimate of the amounts of such Losses and (ii) specifying in reasonable detail the individual items of Losses included in the amount so stated, the date each such item was paid, sustained or incurred, or the basis for such anticipated Liability, and the nature of the Indemnifiable Matter to which such item is related; provided, however, 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 Escrow Representative or applicable Indemnifying Party(ies), as the case may be. Following the delivery of an Officer’s Certificate, the Escrow Representative and its representatives and agents shall be given all such access (including electronic access, to the extent available) as they may reasonably require to the books and records of the Surviving Corporation and access to such personnel or representatives of the Surviving Corporation and Parent, including but not limited to the individuals responsible for the matters that are the subject of the Officer’s Certificate, as they may reasonably require for the purposes of investigating or resolving any disputes or responding to any matters or inquiries raised in the Officer’s Certificate.

(b)    Objecting to a Claim for Indemnification.

(i)The Escrow Representative (or, in the case of a claim against fewer than all of the Indemnifying Parties, the applicable Indemnifying Parties) may object to a claim for indemnification set forth in an Officer’s Certificate by delivering to Parent a written statement of objection to the claim made in the Officer’s Certificate (an “Objection Notice”); provided, however, that, to be effective, such Objection Notice must (A) be delivered to the Indemnified Party prior to 5:00 p.m. (California time) on the 30th day following the Claim Date of the applicable 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 claims in respect of which the objection is made. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Escrow Representative and each Indemnifying Party hereby waive the right to object to any claims in respect of any Agreed‑Upon Loss.

(ii)To the extent the Escrow Representative (or the applicable Indemnifying Parties, in the event that indemnification is being sought hereunder from fewer than all of the Indemnifying Parties) does not object in writing (as provided in Section 7.4(b)(i)) to the claims contained in an Officer’s Certificate prior to the Objection Deadline for such Officer’s Certificate, such failure to so object shall be an irrevocable acknowledgment by the Escrow Representative (or the applicable Indemnifying Parties, as the case may be) that the Indemnified Party is entitled to the full amount of the claims for Losses set forth in such Officer’s Certificate (and such entitlement shall be conclusively and irrefutably established) (any such claim, an “Unobjected Claim”). Within 30 days of a claim becoming an Unobjected Claim, the Indemnifying Parties shall make the applicable payment to such Indemnified Party, subject to Sections 7.3, 7.4(e) and 7.5.


66



(c)    Resolution of Conflicts; Arbitration.
(i)In case the Escrow Representative (or the applicable Indemnifying Parties in the case of a claim for indemnification sought from fewer than all the Indemnifying Parties) timely delivers an Objection Notice in accordance with Section 7.4(b)(i) hereof (other than in connection with Agreed‑Upon Losses as defined in Section 7.4(c)(v) hereof), the Escrow Representative (or such objecting Indemnifying Party) and Parent shall attempt in good faith to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of such claims. Either party may, but shall not be obligated to, initiate non‑binding mediation of the dispute with the assistance of a neutral arbitrator belonging to and under the rules of the CPR Institute for Dispute Resolution. The party requesting the mediation shall arrange for mediation services, subject to the approval of the other party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. Mediation shall take place in Los Angeles County, California during reasonable business hours and upon reasonable advance notice. Mediation may be scheduled to begin at any time, but with at least ten (10) Business Days’ written notice to all parties. If one party initiates mediation, the parties (i) shall participate in the mediation in good faith and shall devote reasonable time and energy to the mediation so as to promptly resolve the dispute or conclude that they cannot resolve the dispute and (ii) shall not pursue other remedies while such mediation is proceeding. If the Escrow Representative (or the objecting Indemnifying Parties) and Parent 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 Parties to the Indemnified Parties pursuant to the Settled Claim within 30 days of the applicable claim becoming a Settled Claim, subject to Sections 7.3, 7.4(e) and 7.5.

(ii)If no such agreement can be reached after good faith negotiation (and, if applicable, mediation) prior to 45 days after delivery of an Objection Notice, either Parent or the Escrow Representative (or the objecting Indemnifying Party) may demand arbitration of the matter unless the amount of the Loss that is at issue is the subject of a pending litigation with a third party, in which event arbitration shall not be commenced until such amount is ascertained or both parties agree to arbitration, and in either such event the matter shall be settled by arbitration conducted pursuant to Section 9.9.

(iii)Except as set forth in Section 7.4(c)(v) hereof, arbitration under Section 9.9 shall apply to any dispute among the Indemnifying Parties and the Indemnified Parties under this Article VII hereof, whether relating to claims upon the Escrow Fund or to the other indemnification obligations set forth in this Article VII.

(iv)The decision of the arbitrator or a majority of the three arbitrators, as the case may be, as to the validity and amount of any claim in such Officer’s Certificate shall be final, binding, and conclusive upon the parties to this Agreement and the Indemnifying Parties. Such decision shall be written and shall be supported by written findings of fact and conclusions which shall set forth the award, judgment, decree or order awarded by the arbitrator(s). Claims determined by arbitration as provided in this Section 7.4(c)(iv) are referred to as “Resolved Claims.” Within 30 days of a decision of the arbitrator(s) requiring payment by an Indemnifying Party to an Indemnified Party, such Indemnifying Party shall make the payment to such Indemnified Party, subject to Sections 7.3(a), 7.4(e) and 7.5.

(v)Arbitration under Section 9.9 shall not apply to claims made in respect of (A) any Agent Interpleader Expenses or Agent Indemnification Expenses pursuant to clauses (vi) and (vii) of Section 7.5(d) hereof, (B) the matters set forth on Schedule 7.4(c)(v) hereto, and (C) any Dissenting Share Payments (each of (A), (B), and (C), an “Agreed‑Upon Loss”). Claims against the Escrow Fund made in respect of any Agreed‑Upon Loss shall be resolved in the manner described in Section 7.4(b)(ii) hereof and shall be considered an Unobjected Claim thereunder.

67




(d)    Payable and Unresolved Claims. A “Payable Claim” shall mean a claim for indemnification of Losses under this Article VII, to the extent that such claim has not yet been satisfied by cash payment by the applicable Indemnifying Parties directly to the Indemnified Party or by release to the Indemnified Party of funds from the Escrow Fund, that is (i) a Resolved Claim, (ii) a Settled Claim, or (iii) an Unobjected Claim. An “Unresolved Claim” shall mean any claim for indemnification of Losses under this Article VII specified in any Officer’s Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 7.4(a), to the extent that such claim is not a Payable Claim and has not been satisfied by cash payment by the applicable Indemnifying Parties directly to the Indemnified Party or release to the Indemnified Party of funds from the Escrow Fund.

(e)    Escrow Amount.

(i)Subject to Sections 7.4(a), 7.4(b) and 7.4(c) above, by virtue of this Agreement and as partial security for the indemnity obligations provided for in Section 7.2 hereof, the Indemnified Parties shall, in the manner provided in Section 7.3(g), this Section 7.4(e) and Section 7.5, recover the amount of any Losses with respect to which the Indemnified Parties are entitled to indemnification hereunder by the release of funds from the Escrow Fund.

(ii)On the date any claim becomes a Payable Claim for which an Indemnified Party is obligated or has elected to seek recovery from the Escrow Fund, each Indemnifying Party’s Pro Rata Escrow Portion of the Escrow Amount shall be irrevocably and immediately reduced by the amount of such claim, and payment of such amount from the Escrow Fund shall be made to the Indemnified Parties in accordance with Section 7.5(b)(i); provided, however, that, if and to the extent a Payable Claim is not payable by all the Indemnifying Parties based on their Pro Rata Escrow Portion, each Indemnifying Party’s Pro Rata Escrow Portion of the Escrow Amount shall be reduced by the amount of the Payable Claim payable by such Indemnifying Party. The dollar amount of the aggregate reductions of the Escrow Amount shall reduce the Payable Claims by the exact same dollar amount. If, as a result of the preceding proviso in this Section 7.4(e)(ii), the Pro Rata Escrow Portion of the Escrow Amount attributable to one or more Indemnifying Parties is reduced to zero before the Pro Rata Escrow Portion of the Escrow Amount of one or more other Indemnifying Parties is reduced to zero, then the Indemnified Parties shall, to the extent permitted by this Article VII, recover Payable Claims directly from those Indemnifying Parties whose Pro Rata Escrow Portion of the Escrow Amount has been fully depleted. If the Escrow Amount attributable to all the Indemnifying Parties is reduced to zero, then the Indemnified Parties shall, to the extent permitted by this Article VII, recover all Payable Claims directly from the Indemnifying Parties by whom such Payable Claims are payable.

(iii)On the date that is thirty (30) days after the Survival Date (the period between the Closing Date and such date, the “Escrow Period”), if and to the extent any Indemnifying Party’s Pro Rata Escrow Portion of the remaining Escrow Amount, after taking into account all reductions and adjustments pursuant to Section 7.4(e)(ii), exceeds the amount, as determined by Parent reasonably and in good faith, then necessary to serve as security for any Unresolved Claims, then such Indemnifying Party’s Pro Rata Escrow Portion of the remaining Escrow Amount shall be reduced by the amount of such excess and a payment shall be paid from the Escrow Fund in accordance with Section 7.5(b)(ii) to each such Indemnifying Party so that each such Indemnifying Party receives such excess amount attributable to it, him or her.

(iv)From and after the Escrow Period termination date until each Indemnifying Party’s entire Pro Rata Escrow Portion of the Escrow Amount has been fully depleted pursuant to Section 7.4(e)(ii), Section 7.4(e)(iii) and the last sentence of this Section 7.4(e)(iv), an Indemnified Party shall promptly deliver to the Escrow Representative a notice, as each Unresolved Claim (whether or not such Unresolved Claim existed on the Survival Date) becomes resolved as either a

68



Payable Claim or a claim that is not a Payable Claim, of such resolution and either (A) if and to the extent the Unresolved Claim has been resolved as a Payable Claim, the Indemnified Party shall specify the amount by which each Indemnifying Party’s Pro Rata Escrow Portion of the Escrow Amount has been reduced further in accordance with and subject to Section 7.4(e)(ii) as a result of such Unresolved Claim becoming a Payable Claim or (B) if and to the extent the Unresolved Claim has been resolved as a claim that is not entirely a Payable Claim, specify the positive amount, if any, at such time by which the Pro Rata Escrow Portion of the remaining Escrow Amount (after taking into account all reductions and adjustments pursuant to Section 7.4(e)(ii) and all payments pursuant to Section 7.4(e)(iii) and the last sentence of this Section 7.4(e)(iv)), attributable to each Indemnifying Party whose Pro Rata Escrow Portion of the remaining Escrow Amount would have been reduced if such Unresolved Claim had been entirely a Payable Claim, exceeds the aggregate amount, as determined by Parent reasonably and in good faith, then necessary to serve as security for the remaining Unresolved Claims (including Unresolved Claims that did not exist on the Survival Date) that, if successful, would be payable by such Indemnifying Party. The Pro Rata Escrow Portion of the Escrow Amount attributable to each such Indemnifying Party referenced in the preceding clause (B) shall be reduced by such positive excess amount, if any, specified in accordance with the preceding clause (B) that is attributable to such Indemnifying Party and a payment shall be paid from the Escrow Fund in accordance with Section 7.5(b)(ii) to each such Indemnifying Party referenced in the preceding clause (B) so that each such Indemnifying Party receives such positive excess amount attributable to it, him or her.

(v)Any funds to be distributed pursuant to Sections 7.4(e)(iii) and 7.4(e)(iv) (A) shall be rounded to the nearest one hundredth (0.01) (with amounts 0.005 and above rounded up); provided, that if the sum of the final amounts payable to the Indemnifying Parties, rounded as described in this clause (A), does not equal the remaining amount in the Escrow Fund, then the appropriate amount will be added or subtracted from the Indemnifying Party with the greatest Pro Rata Escrow Portion such that the sum of such final amounts does equal the remaining amount in the Escrow Fund and (B) if subject to applicable tax withholding, shall be returned to Parent before distribution, and Parent will then deduct and pay over to the appropriate Governmental Entity the appropriate tax withholding amounts and distribute net funds to the applicable Indemnifying Party.

(f)    Executive Escrow Amount.

(i)If, at any time prior to the one (1) year anniversary of the Closing Date, the Named Executive has voluntarily terminated his employment with Parent for any reason or Parent has terminated the Named Executive’s employment for Cause (as defined in the Named Executive’s Key Employee Agreement) (collectively, a “Executive Termination Event,” which, for purposes of clarity, shall not include the death or disability of the Named Executive), then Parent shall be entitled to deduct from the Executive Escrow Fund an amount equal to the Executive Clawback Amount, calculated in accordance with Section 7.4(f)(ii) as of the date of the Executive Termination Event. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the Executive Escrow Fund be available for any purpose, including without limitation, any indemnity claims pursuant to Section 7.2(a), other than deduction by Parent pursuant to the terms of this Section 7.4(f) upon the occurrence of an Executive Termination Event.

(ii)The Executive Clawback Amount shall be calculated as of the date of the Executive Termination Event and shall be an amount of cash equal to the result of (x) $4,800,000 minus (y) the product of (A) $400,000 and (B) the number of calendar months that have elapsed after the Closing Date (measured on the same date of each month as the Closing Date). If, as of the date of the Executive Termination Event, the amount then remaining in the Executive Escrow Fund is less than the Executive Clawback Amount, then the “Excess Executive Clawback Amount” shall be an amount equal to (x) the Executive Clawback Amount minus (y) the then remaining amount of the Executive Escrow Fund, which amount shall be recoverable by Parent pursuant to Section 7.2(a)(x).

69




(iii)For as long as any amount of the Executive Escrow Fund remains, each month after the Closing Date, on the same date of each month as the Closing Date occurred, the Executive Escrow Fund shall be reduced by $400,000 (or if the amount remaining in the Executive Escrow Fund is less than $400,000, by such remaining amount) (a “Executive Escrow Release Amount”) and a payment shall be made by the Escrow Agent from the Executive Escrow Fund to each Indemnifying Party so that each such Indemnifying Party receives his, her or its Pro Rata Executive Escrow Portion of such Executive Escrow Release Amount. Parent and the Escrow Representative shall promptly deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent directing the Escrow Agent to release to such Indemnifying Parties such amount from the Executive Escrow Fund. For purposes of clarity, the Executive Escrow Fund shall be deemed to be reduced on the same date of each month as the Closing Date occurred, regardless of the date on which the Escrow Agent disburses funds to the Indemnifying Parties.

(iv)Any funds to be distributed pursuant to Section 7.4(f)(iii) (A) shall be rounded to the nearest one hundredth (0.01) (with amounts 0.005 and above rounded up); provided, that if the sum of the final amounts payable to the Indemnifying Parties, rounded as described in this clause (A), does not equal the remaining amount in the Executive Escrow Fund, then the appropriate amount will be added or subtracted from the Indemnifying Party with the greatest Pro Rata Executive Escrow Portion such that the sum of such final amounts does equal the remaining amount in the Executive Escrow Fund and (B) if subject to applicable tax withholding, shall be returned to Parent before distribution, and Parent will then deduct and pay over to the appropriate Governmental Entity the appropriate tax withholding amounts and distribute net funds to the applicable Indemnifying Party.

7.5    Escrow Arrangements.
 
(a)    Escrow Fund. By virtue of this Agreement and as partial security for the indemnity obligations provided for in Section 7.2 hereof, at the Closing, Parent will deposit with the Escrow Agent the Escrow Amount and Executive Escrow Amount without any act of the Indemnifying Parties in accordance with Section 1.10(b), such deposit of the Escrow Amount and Executive Escrow Amount to constitute an escrow fund to be governed by the terms set forth herein. The Escrow Amount (plus any interest paid on such Escrow Amount in accordance with Section 7.5(c)(ii) hereof) (collectively, the “Escrow Fund”) shall be available to compensate the Indemnified Parties for any claims by such parties for any Losses suffered or incurred by them and for which they are entitled to recovery under this Article VII. The Executive Escrow Amount (plus any interest paid on such Executive Escrow Amount in accordance with Section 7.5(c)(ii) hereof) (collectively, the “Executive Escrow Fund”) shall be available to compensate the Indemnified Parties on the terms and conditions provided under this Article VII. The Escrow Agent may execute this Agreement following the date hereof and prior to the Closing, and such later execution, if so executed after the date hereof, shall not affect the binding nature of this Agreement as of the date hereof between the other signatories hereto.

(b)    Satisfaction of Claims.

(i)If the Escrow Amount attributable to any Indemnifying Party is to be reduced pursuant to Section 7.4(e)(ii), Parent and the Escrow Representative shall promptly deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent directing the Escrow Agent to release to the applicable Indemnified Party an amount from the Escrow Fund equal to the amount of each such reduction of the Escrow Amount, plus a pro rata portion (based on the amount of such reduction of the Escrow Amount relative to the rest of the aggregate Escrow Amount) of all amounts in the Escrow Fund that exceed the aggregate Escrow Amount as of immediately before such release.

(ii)If the Escrow Amount attributable to any Indemnifying Party is to be reduced pursuant to Section 7.4(e)(iii) or the last sentence of Section 7.4(e)(iv), Parent and the Escrow

70



Representative shall promptly deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent directing the Escrow Agent to release to such Indemnifying Party an amount from the Escrow Fund equal to the amount of such reduction of the Escrow Amount, plus a pro rata portion (based on the amount of such reduction of the Escrow Amount relative to the rest of the aggregate Escrow Amount) of all amounts in the Escrow Fund that exceed the aggregate Escrow Amount as of immediately before such release (so that each such Indemnifying Party receives such amount attributable to it, him or her).

(c)    Protection of Escrow Fund.

(i)The Escrow Amount and Executive Escrow Amount shall be invested in the Escrow Agent’s U.S. Money Market Deposit Account, and any interest paid on such Escrow Amount or Executive Escrow Amount shall be added to the Escrow Fund or Executive Escrow Fund, as applicable, and become a part thereof. The Escrow Agent shall hold and safeguard the Escrow Fund during the Escrow Period and the Executive Escrow Fund during the period provided for herein, shall treat such fund as a trust fund in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and shall hold and dispose of the Escrow Fund and Executive Escrow Fund only in accordance with the terms of this Article VII. The interests of the Indemnifying Parties in the Escrow Fund and Executive Escrow Fund shall not be transferable without the prior written consent of Parent.

(ii)The parties hereto agree that Parent is the owner of any cash in the Escrow Fund and Executive Escrow Fund, and that all interest on or other taxable income, if any, earned from the investment of such cash pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated for tax purposes as earned by Parent. The Escrow Agent is hereby instructed to distribute to Parent, within thirty days after the end of each calendar quarter, 20% of any such interest or other income reported as earned.

(d)    Escrow Agent’s Duties.

(i)The Escrow Agent shall be obligated only for the performance of such duties as are specifically set forth herein, and as set forth in any additional written escrow instructions which the Escrow Agent may receive after the date of this Agreement which are signed by an officer of Parent and the Escrow Representative, and may rely and shall be protected in relying or refraining from acting on any instrument reasonably believed to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties. The Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any act done or omitted hereunder as Escrow Agent while acting in good faith and in the exercise of reasonable judgment, and any act done or omitted pursuant to the advice of legal counsel shall be conclusive evidence of such good faith.

(ii)The Escrow Agent is hereby expressly authorized to disregard any and all warnings given by any of the parties hereto or by any other Person, excepting only orders or process of courts of law, and is hereby expressly authorized to comply with and obey orders, judgments or decrees of any court. In case the Escrow Agent obeys or complies with any such order, judgment or decree of any court, the Escrow Agent shall not be liable to any of the parties hereto or to any other Person by reason of such compliance, notwithstanding any such order, judgment or decree being subsequently reversed, modified, annulled, set aside, vacated or found to have been entered without jurisdiction.

(iii)The Escrow Agent shall not be liable in any respect on account of the identity, authority or rights of the parties executing or delivering or purporting to execute or deliver this Agreement or any documents or papers deposited or called for hereunder.

(iv)The Escrow Agent shall not be liable for the expiration of any rights under any statute of limitations with respect to this Agreement or any documents deposited with the Escrow Agent.

(v)In performing any duties under this Agreement, the Escrow Agent shall not be liable to any party for damages, losses or expenses, except for gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the Escrow Agent. Subject to the foregoing sentence, the Escrow Agent shall not incur any such Liability

71



for (A) any act or failure to act made or omitted in good faith, or (B) any action taken or omitted in reliance upon any instrument, including any written statement of affidavit provided for in this Agreement that the Escrow Agent shall in good faith believe to be genuine, nor will the Escrow Agent be liable or responsible for forgeries, fraud, impersonations, or determining the scope of any representative authority. In addition, the Escrow Agent may consult with legal counsel in connection with performing the Escrow Agent’s duties under this Agreement and shall be fully protected in any act taken, suffered, or permitted by him/her in good faith in accordance with the advice of counsel. The Escrow Agent is not responsible for determining and verifying the authority of any Person acting or purporting to act on behalf of any party to this Agreement.

(vi)If any controversy arises between the parties to this Agreement, or with any other party, concerning the subject matter of this Agreement, its terms or conditions, the Escrow Agent will not be required to determine the controversy or to take any action regarding it. The Escrow Agent may hold all documents and the Escrow Amount and may wait for settlement of any such controversy by final appropriate legal proceedings or other means as, in the Escrow Agent’s discretion, may be required, despite what may be set forth elsewhere in this Agreement. In such event, the Escrow Agent will not be liable for damages. Furthermore, the Escrow Agent may at its option, file an action of interpleader requiring the parties to answer and litigate any claims and rights among themselves. The Escrow Agent is authorized to deposit with the clerk of the court all documents and the Escrow Amounts held in escrow, except all costs, expenses, charges and reasonable attorney fees incurred by the Escrow Agent due to the interpleader action (the “Agent Interpleader Expenses”) and which the parties agree to pay as follows: 50% to be paid to Parent and 50% to be paid by the Indemnifying Parties on the basis of the Indemnifying Parties’ respective Pro Rata Consideration Portions; provided, however, that in the event any Indemnifying Party fails to timely pay his, her or its Pro Rata Consideration Portion of the Agent Interpleader Expenses, the parties agree that Parent may at its option pay such Indemnifying Party’s Pro Rata Consideration Portion of the Agent Interpleader Expenses and recover an equal amount (which shall be deemed an Agreed‑Upon Loss) from such Indemnifying Party’s Pro Rata Escrow Portion of the Escrow Fund. Upon initiating such action, the Escrow Agent shall be fully released and discharged of and from all obligations and liability imposed by the terms of this Agreement.

(vii) The parties and their respective successors and assigns agree jointly and severally to indemnify and hold Escrow Agent harmless against any and all losses, damages, liabilities and expenses, including reasonable out-of-pocket costs of investigation, counsel fees, including disbursements that may be imposed on Escrow Agent or incurred by Escrow Agent in connection with the performance of its duties under this Agreement, including but not limited to any litigation arising from this Agreement or involving its subject matter, other than those arising out of the negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Escrow Agent (the “Agent Indemnification Expenses”) as follows: 50% to be paid by Parent and 50% to be paid by the Indemnifying Parties on the basis of the Indemnifying Parties’ respective Pro Rata Consideration Portions; provided, however, that in the event any Indemnifying Party fails to timely pay his, her or its Pro Rata Consideration Portion of the Agent Indemnification Expenses, the parties agree that Parent may at its option pay such Indemnifying Party’s Pro Rata Consideration Portion of the Agent Indemnification Expenses and recover an equal amount (which shall be deemed an Agreed‑Upon Loss) from such Indemnifying Party’s Pro Rata Escrow Portion of the Escrow Fund.

(viii)The Escrow Agent may resign at any time upon giving at least thirty (30) days written notice to Parent and the Escrow Representative; provided, however, that no such resignation shall become effective until the appointment of a successor escrow agent which shall be accomplished as follows: Parent and the Escrow Representative shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to mutually

72



agree on a successor escrow agent within thirty (30) days after receiving such notice. If the parties fail to agree upon a successor escrow agent within such time, the Escrow Agent shall have the right to appoint a successor escrow agent authorized to do business in the State of California. The successor escrow agent shall execute and deliver an instrument accepting such appointment and it shall, without further acts, be vested with all the estates, properties, rights, powers, and duties of the predecessor escrow agent as if originally named as escrow agent. Upon appointment of a successor escrow agent, the Escrow Agent shall be discharged from any further duties and liability under this Agreement.

(e)    Fees. All fees of the Escrow Agent for performance of its duties hereunder shall be paid by Parent in accordance with the standard fee schedule of the Escrow Agent. It is understood that the fees and usual charges agreed upon for services of the Escrow Agent shall be considered compensation for ordinary services as contemplated by this Agreement. In the event that the conditions of this Agreement are not promptly fulfilled, or if the Escrow Agent renders any service not provided for in this Agreement, or if the parties request a substantial modification of its terms, or if any controversy arises, or if the Escrow Agent is made a party to, or intervenes in, any litigation pertaining to the Escrow Fund or its subject matter, the Escrow Agent shall be reasonably compensated for such extraordinary services and reimbursed for all costs, attorney’s fees, including allocated costs of in‑house counsel, and expenses occasioned by such default, delay, controversy or litigation.

(f)    Successor Escrow Agents. Any corporation into which the Escrow Agent in its individual capacity may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Escrow Agent in its individual capacity shall be a party, or any corporation to which substantially all the corporate trust business of the Escrow Agent in its individual capacity may be transferred, shall be the Escrow Agent under this Agreement without further act.

7.6    Third‑Party Claims.  In the event Parent becomes aware of a third party claim (other than a claim that is the subject of an Agreed‑Upon Loss) (a “Third Party Claim”) which Parent reasonably believes may result in a demand against the Escrow Fund or for other indemnification pursuant to this Article VII, Parent shall notify the Escrow Representative (or, in the event indemnification is being sought hereunder from fewer than all the Indemnifying Parties, such applicable Indemnifying Party) of such claim, and the Escrow Representative shall be entitled on behalf of the Indemnifying Parties (or, in the event indemnification is being sought hereunder from fewer than all the Indemnifying Parties, the applicable Indemnifying Parties shall be entitled), at their expense, to participate in, but not to determine or conduct, the defense of such Third Party Claim. The failure to so notify the Escrow Representative shall not relieve the Indemnifying Parties of any Liability, except to the extent and only to the extent the Escrow Representative demonstrates that the defense of such action is materially prejudiced thereby. If there is a third party claim that, if adversely determined, would give rise to a right of recovery for Losses hereunder, then (A) with respect to the first $200,000 incurred by the Indemnified Parties in defense of all such third-party claims, 100% of such costs, regardless of the outcome of such claims, shall be deemed Losses hereunder, (B) with respect to the second $200,000 incurred by the Indemnified Parties in defense of all such third-party claims, 50% of such costs, regardless of the outcome of such claims, shall be deemed Losses hereunder and 50% of such costs, regardless of the outcome of such claims, shall not be Losses hereunder and shall be borne by the Indemnified Parties, (C) with respect to the any additional costs incurred by the Indemnified Parties in defense of all such third-party claims, 100% of such costs, regardless of the outcome of such claims, shall be deemed Losses hereunder. Parent shall have the right in its sole discretion to conduct the defense of, and to settle, any such claim; provided, however, that, except with the written consent of the Escrow Representative (or, in the event indemnification is being sought hereunder from fewer than all the Indemnifying Parties, such applicable Indemnifying Parties), no settlement of any such Third Party Claim with third party claimants shall be determinative of the existence or amount of Losses relating to such matter or whether an Indemnified Party is entitled to

73



indemnification pursuant to this Article VII; provided further, however, the consent of the Escrow Representative with respect to any settlement of any such Third Party Claim shall be deemed to have been given unless the Escrow Representative shall have objected within thirty (30) days after receipt of a written request for such consent by Parent. The Escrow Agent shall not disburse any portion of the Escrow Fund to any third party except in accordance with joint written instructions received from Parent and the Escrow Representative. In the event that the Escrow Representative has consented in writing to any such settlement, the Indemnifying Parties shall have no power or authority to object under any provision of this Article VII to the amount of any Third Party Claim by Parent against the Escrow Fund, or against the Indemnifying Parties directly, as the case may be, with respect to such settlement constituting a Payable Claim. Upon the reasonable request of the Escrow Representative, Parent shall endeavor (but neither Parent nor any other Indemnified Party shall be under any obligation, contractual or otherwise) to keep the Escrow Representative reasonably apprised of the status of each Third Party Claim, provided that Parent shall not be required to provide access to any information that is subject to attorney-client privilege to the extent doing so, in the opinion of Parent’s counsel, would cause such privilege to be waived (in which case, summaries of such privileged information will be made available to the extent not violating any such privilege) and the Escrow Representative shall have executed any common interest agreements or confidentiality agreements reasonably requested by Parent. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, this Section 7.6 shall not apply to any third party claim that is the subject of an Agreed‑Upon Loss. Claims made in respect of any Agreed‑Upon Loss shall be resolved in the manner described in Section 7.4(b)(ii) above.

7.7    Escrow Representative

(a)    The Escrow Representative is hereby appointed as of the date hereof as the exclusive agent and attorney in fact of the Indemnifying Parties as the Escrow Representative for and on behalf of the Indemnifying Parties to give and receive notices and communications in connection with this Agreement and related matters, including in connection with claims for indemnification under this Article VII and to agree to, negotiate, and enter into settlements, adjustments and compromises of, and demand arbitration and comply with orders of courts and awards of arbitrators with respect to, such claims, and to take all other actions that are either (i) necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Escrow Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing or (ii) specifically mandated by the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Escrow Representative shall have no obligation to act on behalf of the Indemnifying Parties, except as expressly provided herein, and for purposes of clarity, there are no obligations of the Escrow Representative in any ancillary agreement, schedule, exhibit or the Disclosure Schedule. Such agency may be changed by the Indemnifying Parties from time to time upon not less than ten (10) days prior written notice to Parent; provided, however, that the Escrow Representative may not be removed unless holders of a majority-in-interest of the Escrow Fund agree to such removal and to the identity of the substituted agent. A vacancy in the position of Escrow Representative may be filled by the holders of a majority-in-interest of the Escrow Fund. No bond shall be required of the Escrow Representative. Notices or communications to or from the Escrow Representative shall constitute notice to or from the Indemnifying Parties. The powers, immunities and rights to indemnification granted to the Escrow Representative and the Advisory Group hereunder: (i) are coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable and survive the death, incompetence, bankruptcy or liquidation of the respective Indemnifying Party and shall be binding on any successor thereto, and (ii) shall survive the delivery of an assignment by any Indemnifying Party of the whole or any fraction of his, her or its interest in the Escrow Fund.

(b)    Certain Indemnifying Parties have entered into a letter agreement with the Escrow Representative to provide direction to the Escrow Representative in connection with the performance of its services under this Agreement (such Indemnifying Parties, including their individual representatives, collectively hereinafter referred to as the “Advisory Group”). Neither the Escrow

74



Representative (together with its members, managers, directors, officers, contractors, agents and employees) nor any member of the Advisory Group (collectively, the “Escrow Representative Group”) shall be liable for any act done or omitted hereunder as Escrow Representative while acting in good faith and in the exercise of reasonable judgment. The Indemnifying Parties on whose behalf the Escrow Amount was contributed to the Escrow Fund shall indemnify the Escrow Representative Group and defend and hold the Escrow Representative Group harmless against any Loss, Liability or expense incurred without negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the Escrow Representative Group and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the Escrow Representative Group’s duties hereunder, including the reasonable fees and expenses of any legal counsel or other skilled professionals retained by the Escrow Representative (“Escrow Representative Expense”). The immunities and rights to indemnification shall survive the resignation or removal of the Escrow Representative or any member of the Advisory Group and the Closing and/or any termination of this Agreement. The Indemnifying Parties acknowledge that the Escrow Representative shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the exercise or performance of any of its powers, rights, duties or privileges or administration of its duties. Following the termination of the Escrow Period and the resolution of all pending claims made by the Indemnified Parties for Losses, the Escrow Representative shall have the right to recover the Escrow Representative Expenses first, from the Expense Fund, second from any remaining portion of the Escrow Fund prior to any distribution to the Indemnifying Parties (and prior to any such distribution, shall deliver to the Escrow Agent a certificate setting forth the Escrow Representative Expenses actually incurred) and third, directly from the Indemnifying Parties. Upon receipt of such certificate, the Escrow Agent shall pay such Escrow Representative Expenses to the Escrow Representative. Parent agrees to consent in writing to the distribution, to the extent permitted herein, if so requested by the Escrow Agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Escrow Representative’s right to recover Escrow Representative Expenses shall not prejudice Parent’s right to recover the full amount of indemnifiable Losses that Parent is entitled to recover from the Escrow Fund.

(c)    Upon the Closing, Parent shall wire to the Escrow Representative $150,000 (the “Expense Fund Amount”). The Expense Fund Amount shall be held by the Escrow Representative as agent and for the benefit of the Indemnifying Parties in a segregated client account and shall be used for the purposes of paying directly, or reimbursing the Representative for, any Escrow Representative Expenses incurred pursuant to this Agreement or any Escrow Representative letter agreement (the “Expense Fund”). The Escrow Representative will hold the Expense Fund separate from its corporate funds and will not voluntarily make it available to its creditors in the event of bankruptcy. The Escrow Representative is not providing any investment supervision, recommendations or advice and shall have no responsibility or liability for any loss of principal of the Expense Fund other than as a result of its gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Escrow Representative is not acting as a withholding agent or in any similar capacity in connection with the Expense Fund, and has no tax reporting or income distribution obligations hereunder. As soon as reasonably determined by the Escrow Representative that the Expense Fund is no longer required to be withheld, Escrow Representative shall distribute the remaining Expense Fund (if any) to the Escrow Agent (or directly to the Paying Agent or Parent if so instructed) for further distribution to the Indemnifying Parties.

(d)    The Escrow Representative shall be entitled to: (i) rely upon the Spreadsheet, (ii) rely upon any signature believed by it to be genuine, and (iii) reasonably assume that a signatory has proper authorization to sign on behalf of the applicable Indemnifying Party or other party. A decision, act, consent or instruction of the Escrow Representative, including but not limited to an amendment, extension or waiver of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.3 and Section 8.4 hereof, shall constitute a decision of the Indemnifying Parties and shall be final, binding and conclusive upon the Indemnifying Parties and such Indemnifying Party’s successors as if expressly confirmed and ratified in writing by such Indemnifying Party; and each Indemnifying Party waives any and all defenses which may be available to

75



contest, negate or disaffirm the action of the Escrow Representative taken in good faith under this Agreement. The Escrow Agent and Parent may rely upon any such decision, act, consent or instruction of the Escrow Representative as being the decision, act, consent or instruction of the Indemnifying Parties. The Escrow Agent and Parent are hereby relieved from any Liability to any Person for any acts done by them in accordance with such decision, act, consent or instruction of the Escrow Representative.

7.8    Tax Treatment.  Any payment under Article VII of this Agreement shall be treated by the parties for U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. income Tax purposes as a purchase price adjustment unless otherwise required by applicable law.
7.9    Cost Basis Reporting.     Subject to the Company’s compliance with the covenant in Section 5.19(c) to provide such information to Parent on the Spreadsheet, and without in any way limiting the Indemnified Parties’ right to be indemnified for any inaccuracies in the Spreadsheet in accordance with the terms of this Article VII, Parent and Company shall affirm in writing to Paying Agent whether the securities being exchanged, redeemed, or sold pursuant to the underlying Agreement are classified as “Covered Securities” or “Non-Covered Securities” under IRS Cost Basis Reporting regulations not later than 30 days after the distribution hereunder. If such securities are classified as “covered Securities,” then Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall provide accurate and complete cost basis information to Paying Agent for purposes of Form 1099-B preparation. The required information shall include each Company Stockholder’s date of acquisition and cost basis of the applicable security, and any other information that the Paying Agent may reasonably request to comply with IRS Form 1099-B reporting regulations. The foregoing information shall be based on the information set forth in the Spreadsheet, unless Parent or the Surviving Corporation determine that any such information was inaccurate.

9.5    Severability.  In the event that 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.

9.8    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.

9.9    Resolution of Conflicts; Arbitration.  Subject to Section 4.2(b), Section 7.4(c) and Section 9.9(d), any claim or dispute arising out of or related to this Agreement, or the interpretation,

80



making, performance, breach or termination thereof, shall (except as specifically set forth in this Agreement) be finally settled by binding arbitration in the County of Los Angeles, California in accordance with the then current Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association and judgment upon the award rendered may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The arbitrator(s) shall have the authority to grant any equitable and legal remedies that would be available in any judicial proceeding instituted to resolve a dispute.

(a)    Selection of Arbitrators. Such arbitration shall be conducted by a single arbitrator chosen by mutual agreement of Parent and the Escrow Representative (or the Company, if such arbitration occurs prior to the Closing). Alternatively, at the request of either party before the commencement of arbitration, the arbitration shall be conducted by three independent arbitrators, none of whom shall have any competitive interests with Parent or Escrow Representative (or the Company, if such arbitration occurs prior to the Closing). Parent and Escrow Representative (or the Company, if such arbitration occurs prior to the Closing) shall each select one arbitrator. The two arbitrators so selected shall select a third arbitrator.

(b)    Discovery. In any arbitration under this Section 9.9, each party shall be limited to calling a total of three witnesses both for purposes of deposition and the arbitration hearing. Subject to the foregoing limitation on the number of witnesses, the arbitrator or arbitrators, as the case may be, shall set a limited time period and establish procedures designed to reduce the cost and time for discovery while allowing the parties an opportunity, adequate in the sole judgment of the arbitrator or majority of the three arbitrators, as the case may be, to discover relevant information from the opposing parties about the subject matter of the dispute. The arbitrator, or a majority of the three arbitrators, as the case may be, shall rule upon motions to compel or limit discovery and shall have the authority to impose sanctions for discovery abuses, including attorneys’ fees and costs, to the same extent as a competent court of law or equity, should the arbitrators or a majority of the three arbitrators, as the case may be, determine that discovery was sought without substantial justification or that discovery was refused or objected to without substantial justification.

(c)    Decision. The decision of the arbitrator or a majority of the three arbitrators, as the case may be, as to any claim or dispute (including the validity and amount of any indemnification claim set forth in an Officer’s Certificate) shall be final, binding, and conclusive upon the parties to this Agreement. Such decision shall be written and shall be supported by written findings of fact and conclusions that shall set forth the award, judgment, decree or order awarded by the arbitrator(s). Within 30 days of a decision of the arbitrator(s) requiring payment by one party to another, such party shall make the payment to such other party, including any distributions out of the Escrow Fund, as applicable.

9.10    Certain Procedures for Opening an Escrow Account.  To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Person who opens an account. For a non-individual Person such as a business entity, a charity, a trust or other legal entity the Escrow Agent will ask for documentation to verify its formation and existence as a legal entity. The Escrow Agent may also ask to see financial statements, licenses, identification and authorization documents from individuals claiming authority to represent the entity or other relevant documentation.

9.11    Legal Counsel.  The parties hereto acknowledge that Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati, Professional Corporation (“WSGR”) has represented Parent and Goodwin Procter LLP (“Goodwin”) has represented the Company, in each case in connection with the negotiation and execution of this Agreement, the Related Agreements and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and neither WSGR nor Goodwin has undertaken to represent any other party in connection therewith.

9.12    Waiver of Representations; Disclaimer.  Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, the Certificates, the Related Agreements or the Disclosure Schedule, Parent acknowledges that (a) none of the Company nor any other Person has made any representation or warranty, express or implied, as to the Company, the accuracy or completeness of any information regarding the Company furnished or made available to Parent, Merger Sub and their representatives, including, without limitation, any internal budgets, plans, projections or forecasts for any period made by or on behalf of the Company of any kind or nature, or any other matter related to the transactions contemplated herein, and (b) Parent and Merger Sub have not relied on any representation or warranty from the Company or any other Person in determining to enter into this Agreement; provided, however, that that the foregoing shall not apply to claims for Losses pursuant to Section 7.2(a)(vii) and/or Section 7.2(b).

ARTICLE X

TAXES

10.1    Cooperation. Each of Parent, the Company Stockholders, the Escrow Representative, and the Company shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by any of the others, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns and any legal proceeding with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon request therefor) the provision of records and information reasonably relevant to any such legal proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. Parent, the Company, and the Company Stockholders agree to retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Company relating to any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until expiration of the statute of limitations of the respective taxable periods, and to abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any Governmental Entity with jurisdiction over tax matters (“Tax Authority”).

10.2    Tax Returns. Parent shall prepare or cause to be prepared, and file or cause to be filed all Tax Returns of the Company for any Pre-Closing Tax Period, including any Straddle Period, that are required to be filed after the Closing Date (the “Pre-Closing Tax Returns”). For all such Pre-Closing Tax Returns, (i) Parent shall deliver a draft of any such income or other material Tax Return that reflects a Tax for which the Indemnifying Parties are liable to the Escrow Representative for review and comment at least fifteen (15) Business Days prior the filing thereof; and (ii) Parent shall consider in good faith any reasonable changes or comments that the Escrow Representative submits to Parent no less than seven (7) Business Days prior to the due date for such Tax Return. For the avoidance of doubt, Pre-Closing Tax Returns shall include any filings, statements, agreements or other Tax Returns filed pursuant to a state voluntary disclosure initiative or similar program.


82




10.3    Tax Contests. Parent and the Company, on the one hand, and the Company Stockholders, the Escrow Representative and each of their Affiliates, on the other hand, shall promptly notify each other upon receipt by such party of written notice of any inquiries, claims, actions, suits, assessments, audits or similar proceedings or events with respect to Taxes relating to a Pre-Closing Tax Period (a “Tax Matter”). Any failure to so notify the other party of any Tax Matter shall not relieve such other party of any Liability with respect to such Tax Matters.

10.4    Refunds. Except to the extent attributable to the carryback of any Tax Attribute or Tax benefit generated after the Closing Date, the Company Stockholders shall be entitled to the amount of any refund or credit for overpayment of Taxes of the Company attributable to a Pre-Closing Tax Period to the extent such refund or credit is actually recognized by Parent or its Affiliates, net of any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses and any non-indemnified Tax cost to Parent of obtaining such refund or credit. To the extent such refund or credit for overpayment is subsequently disallowed or required to be returned to the applicable Tax Authority, the Company Stockholders agree to promptly repay the amount of such refund or credit for overpayment, together with any interest, penalties or other additional amounts imposed by such Tax Authority to Parent. For the avoidance of doubt, Parent shall not be under any obligation to seek any refund of Taxes.

10.5     Amendments; Elections. Parent shall not amend any Tax Return of, or make or change any Tax election (including without limitation pursuant to Section 338 of the Code) with respect to the Company for a Tax period ending on or before the Closing Date without the Escrow Representative’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, unless such amendment or change is required in Parent’s sole reasonable discretion to avoid the imposition of penalties.

10.6    Xerox Receivable. In the event the Company determines, after consultation with Parent in good faith, that any amount is required to be included in the calculation of Unpaid Pre-Closing Taxes on or prior to the Closing Date on account of sales Taxes that the Company failed to collect from transactions entered into with Xerox Corporation and/or any of its subsidiaries, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall be permitted to invoice Xerox Corporation and/or its appropriate subsidiaries for the amount of such sales Taxes and the amount so invoiced shall be treated as an account receivable (the “Xerox Receivable”) and a Current Asset for purposes of determining the Adjusted Net Equity Amount set forth on the Closing Statement; provided, however, that such invoiced amount shall not be treated as an account receivable or a Current Asset for purposes of the Post-Closing Statement (but any amounts collected in respect of such account receivable as of the date on which the Post-Closing Statement is delivered to the Escrow Representative pursuant to Section 1.8(b) shall be treated as a Current Asset for such purpose).
