Certain other capitalized terms used herein are defined in Exhibit A.

RECITALS

A. Acquirer, Merger Sub I and the Company intend to effect a merger of Merger Sub I with and into the Company in accordance with this Agreement and Delaware Law (the “FirstMerger”). Upon consummation of the First Merger, Merger Sub I will cease to exist, and the Company will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Acquirer and, as part of the same overall transaction, the surviving entity of the First Merger would merge with and into Merger Sub II (the “Second Merger” and, collectively or in seriatim with the First Merger, as appropriate, the “Merger”) in accordance with this Agreement and Delaware Law.

B. The board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) has carefully considered the terms of this Agreement and has unanimously (1) determined that this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the documents referenced herein (collectively, the “Transactions”), including the Merger, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, advisable and in the best interests of the Company and the Company Stockholders, (2) approved this Agreement in accordance with Delaware Law and (3) adopted a resolution directing that the adoption of this Agreement be submitted to the Company Stockholders for consideration and recommending that all of the Company Stockholders adopt this Agreement and approve the Merger.

C. The board of directors of Merger Sub I has (1) declared this Agreement and the Transactions, including the Merger, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, advisable and in the best interests of Merger Sub I and the stockholder of Merger Sub I and (2) adopted a resolution recommending that Acquirer, as the sole stockholder of Merger Sub I, adopt this Agreement and approve the First Merger. The managers of Merger Sub II have approved this Agreement and the Second Merger.

D. The board of directors of Acquirer has approved this Agreement and the Transactions, including the Merger and the issuance of shares of Acquirer Common Stock in connection therewith, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, and Acquirer, as the sole stockholder of Merger Sub I, shall, on the Agreement Date immediately following execution and delivery of this Agreement, adopt this Agreement and approve the Merger.

E. Acquirer, the Merger Subs and the Company intend that the First Merger and Second Merger are integrated steps in the transaction contemplated by this Agreement and will together qualify as a tax-free “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code.

F. Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, and as a condition and inducement to Acquirer’s and the Merger Subs’ willingness to enter into this Agreement, the employees set forth on Schedule B (each, a “Key Employee”) and the employees set forth on Schedule C (each, a “Specified Employee”) have each executed Acquirer’s customary form of (1) employment offer letter that will include a restriction on the sale of Acquirer Common Stock for 12 months following the Closing Date for the Key Employees, together with a confidential information and assignment agreement (together, an “Offer Letter”) and (2) non-competition agreement (a “Non-Competition Agreement”).

G. Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, and as a condition and inducement to Acquirer’s and the Merger Subs’ willingness to enter into this Agreement, certain employees of the Company are executing a benefits waiver in favor of the Company and Acquirer in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (a “Benefits Waiver”), to become effective upon the Closing.

H. Promptly following the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Company shall seek to obtain and deliver to Acquirer a written consent in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (a “Written Consent”) executed by the Company Stockholders identified on Schedule 1.2(b)(v) (the “Consenting Stockholders”), evidencing the obtainment of the Company Stockholder Approval, and the Company shall seek to obtain and deliver to Acquirer immediately after the delivery of such Written Consent (i) a stockholder agreement in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit D-1 (the “Stockholder Agreement”) executed by each Consenting Stockholder and (ii) an investor representation letter in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit E (an “Investor Representation Letter”) executed by each Consenting Stockholder.

Upon cancellation thereof, no payment shall be made with respect to any Company Option that is not an In the Money Option. The Company shall, prior to the Closing, take or cause to be taken all actions, and shall obtain all consents, as may be required to effect the treatment of Company Options pursuant to this Section 1.3(a)(xiii).

At the Effective Time, by virtue of the First Merger and without any action on the part of Acquirer, Merger Sub I or any other Person, each share of capital stock of Merger Sub that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and become one share of common stock of the First Step Surviving Corporation (and the shares of the First Step Surviving Corporation into which the shares of Merger Sub I capital stock are so converted shall be the only shares of the First Step Surviving Corporation’s capital stock that are issued and outstanding immediately after the Effective Time). From and after the Effective Time, each certificate evidencing ownership of a number of shares of Merger Sub I capital stock will evidence ownership of such number of shares of common stock of the First Step Surviving Corporation.

At the Second Effective Time, by virtue of the Second Merger, each share of common stock of the First Step Surviving Corporation that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Second Effective Time shall be cancelled and extinguished without any conversion thereof.

(f)Appraisal Rights. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Dissenting Shares shall not be converted into the right to receive the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration, but shall instead be converted into the right to receive such consideration as may be determined to be due with respect to any such Dissenting Shares pursuant to Delaware Law. Each holder of Dissenting Shares who, pursuant to the provisions of Delaware Law, becomes entitled to payment thereunder for such shares shall receive payment therefor in accordance with Delaware Law (but only after the value therefor shall have been agreed upon or finally determined pursuant to such provisions). If, after the Effective Time, any Dissenting Shares shall lose their status as Dissenting Shares, then any such shares shall immediately be deemed to have converted at the Effective Time into the right to receive the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration in respect of such shares as if such shares never had been Dissenting Shares, and Acquirer shall issue and deliver to the holder thereof, at (or as promptly as reasonably practicable after) the applicable time or times specified in Section 1.4(a), following the satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 1.4(a), the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration as if such shares never had been Dissenting Shares.

Subject to Section 8.2, the payout of consideration under this Agreement to the Converting Holders (other than in respect of Dissenting Shares, which shall be treated as provided in this Section 1.3(f) and under Delaware Law) shall not be affected by the exercise or potential exercise of appraisal rights or dissenters’ rights under Delaware Law by any other Company Stockholder.

(g)Rights Not Transferable. The rights of the Company Securityholders under this Agreement as of immediately prior to the Effective Time are personal to each such Company Securityholder and shall not be transferable for any reason, other than by operation of law, will or the laws of descent and distribution without action taken by or on behalf of such Company Securityholder. Any attempted transfer of such right by any holder thereof (other than as permitted by the immediately preceding sentence) shall be null and void.

(h)Fractional Shares. The number of shares of Acquirer Common Stock into which a Converting Holder’s shares of Company Capital Stock are converted pursuant to this Article I shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of Acquirer Common Stock. In lieu of any fractional shares of Acquirer Common Stock to which any Converting Holder would otherwise be entitled (after aggregating, for each particular stock certificate representing Company Capital Stock, all fractional shares of Acquirer Common Stock to be received by such holder), such Converting Holder shall receive from Acquirer an amount in cash (rounded to the nearest whole cent) equal to the product of (i) such fraction and (ii) the Acquirer Stock Price.

5.17Director and Officer Matters. Prior to the Effective Time, Acquirer shall take all such steps as may be required to cause any acquisitions of Acquirer Common Stock (including derivative securities with respect to Acquirer Common Stock) resulting from the Transactions by each individual who will become subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act with respect to Acquirer to be exempt under Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Company Indemnification Provisions, no Company Indemnified Party shall be entitled to coverage under any Acquirer director and officer insurance policy or errors and omission policy unless such Company Indemnified Party is separately eligible for coverage under such policy pursuant to Acquirer’s policies and procedures and the terms of such insurance policy.

(b)Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall purchase tail insurance coverage (the “Tail Insurance Coverage”) for the Company Indemnified Parties in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company and Acquirer, which shall provide the Company Indemnified Parties with coverage for six years following the Closing Date in an amount not less than the existing coverage and that shall have other terms not materially less favorable to the insured persons than the directors’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage maintained by the Company as of the Agreement Date. Acquirer shall cause the Final Surviving Entity to maintain the Tail Insurance Coverage in full force and effect and continue to honor the obligations thereunder until the sixth anniversary of the Closing Date.

(c)This Section 5.18 (i) shall survive the consummation of the Merger, (ii) is intended to benefit each Company Indemnified Party and their respective heirs, (iii) is in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to indemnification or contribution that any such Person may have against Acquirer or the Final Surviving Entity first arising after the earlier of the Closing Date and the termination of this Agreement by contract or otherwise, (iv) shall be binding on all successors and assigns of Acquirer and the Final Surviving Entity, as applicable, and shall be enforceable by the Company Indemnified Parties, and (v) shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely affect the rights of any Company Indemnified Party under this Section 5.18 without the written consent of such affected Company Indemnified Party; provided that (x) recourse shall first be against the Tail Insurance Coverage until it is exhausted before recovery against Acquirer shall take place and (y) the aggregate Liability of Acquirer under this Section 5.18 to all Company Indemnified Parties shall in no event exceed the total assets of the Company as set forth in the Company Balance Sheet.

5.20Black Duck Audit. In the event that the results of the scanning and analysis of the Company Source Code conducted by BlackDuck Software indicate that Company or any of its Subsidiaries have failed to comply with the terms and conditions of any licenses for the Open Source Materials that are incorporated into, combined with, or distributed with the Company-Owned Intellectual Property or Company Products, or have incorporated into, combined, distributed, or used Open Source Materials with the Company-Owned Intellectual Property or Company Products in such a way that requires, as a condition of use, modification and/or distribution of such Open Source Materials, that any Company-Owned Intellectual Property or any software included in Company Products be (A) disclosed or distributed in source code form, (B) be licensed for the purpose of making derivative works or (C) be redistributable at no charge, then at the request of and in cooperation with Acquirer the Company will use reasonable efforts to adopt and implement a remediation plan to correct any such issues with respect to Open Source Materials prior to Closing.

(r)At the Effective Time, Acquirer shall withhold the Escrow Amount and the Extended Escrow Amount from the Merger Consideration payable and issuable pursuant to Section 1.3(a) and Section 1.4(d) and shall deposit the Escrow Amount and the Extended Escrow Amount with the Escrow Agent (the aggregate amount of cash and shares of Acquirer Common Stock so held by the Escrow Agent from time to time, together with any non-taxable stock dividends declared and paid in respect of such shares, the “Escrow Fund”), which Escrow Fund shall be governed by this Agreement and the escrow agreement in a form reasonably satisfactory to Acquirer and the Company, with such changes as Acquirer and the Stockholders’ Agent may agree in writing (the “Escrow Agreement”). The Escrow Fund shall constitute security for the benefit of Acquirer (on behalf of itself or any other Indemnified Person) with respect to any Indemnifiable Damages pursuant to the indemnification obligations of the Converting Holders under Section 1.6(i) and this Article VIII; provided that, following the date that is eighteen (18) months after the Effective Time, no Indemnified Person may make any claim against the Escrow Fund except for Capitalization Claims; provided, further, that the foregoing limitation regarding recovery against the Escrow Fund shall not otherwise limit the rights of Indemnified Persons with respect to Fundamental Claims. The Escrow Agent shall (i) hold the portion of the Escrow Fund consisting of the Escrow Amount until 11:59 p.m. local time on the date (the “Escrow Release Date”) that is 30 days after the date that is eighteen (18) months after the Effective Time and (ii) hold the portion of the Escrow Fund consisting of the Extended Escrow Amount until 11:59 p.m. local time on the date (the “Extended Escrow Release Date”) that is 30 days after the date that is thirty-six (36) months after the Effective Time. The Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) shares of Acquirer Common Stock constituting the Participating Electing Investor Stock Escrow Amount shall be treated by Acquirer as issued and outstanding stock of Acquirer, and the Electing Investors shall be entitled to exercise voting rights and to receive dividends with respect to such shares (other than stock dividends, which shall be retained by the Escrow Agent and included as part of the Escrow Fund), (ii) (A) the cash held in the Escrow Fund constituting the Participating Non-Electing Investor Cash Escrow Amount attributable to Company Stockholders is intended to be treated as deferred contingent purchase price eligible for installment sale treatment under Section 453 of the Code and any corresponding provision of foreign, state or local law, as appropriate and (B) if and to the extent any amounts of such Participating Non-Electing Investor Cash Escrow Amount are actually distributed to Company Stockholders, interest may be imputed on such amount, as required by Sections 483 or 1274 of the Code; (iii) (A) shares of Acquirer Common Stock held in the Escrow Fund constituting the Management Retention Plan Stock Escrow Amount and (B) the applicable cash portion of the Participating Non-Electing Investor Cash Escrow Amount attributable to any In the Money Option held by a Converting Holder are each subject to substantial limitations or restrictions such that such portion of the consideration is not constructively received by the MRP Participants and Converting Holders with respect to any In the Money Options, as applicable, for Tax purposes at the time of Closing and is not intended to be compensation or wages, or subject to withholding as such, until the distribution of such Escrow Amount (if any) is determined; and (iv) Acquirer shall be treated as the owner of the Participating Non-Electing Investor Cash Escrow Amount solely for tax purposes, and all interest and earnings earned from the investment and reinvestment of the Participating Non-Electing Investor Cash Escrow Amount, or any portion thereof, shall be allocable to Parent pursuant to Section 468B(g) of the Code and Proposed Treasury Regulation Section 1.468B-8, and no party shall take any action or filing position inconsistent with such characterizations except to the extent required by Applicable Law. The Escrow Interest Holders shall not receive interest or other earnings on the shares of Acquirer Common Stock (other than as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence) in the Escrow Fund. Neither the Escrow Fund (including any portion thereof) nor any beneficial interest therein may be pledged, subjected to any Encumbrance, sold, assigned or transferred by any Escrow Interest Holder or be taken or reached by any legal or equitable process in satisfaction of any debt or other Liability of any Escrow Interest Holder, in each case prior to the distribution of the Escrow Fund to any Escrow Interest Holder in accordance with Section 8.1(b), except that each Escrow Interest Holder shall be entitled to assign such Escrow Interest Holder’s rights to such Escrow Interest Holder’s Escrow Pro Rata Share of the Escrow Fund by will, by the laws of intestacy or by other operation of law.

(s)Within five Business Days following the Escrow Release Date or the Extended Escrow Release Date, as applicable, the Escrow Agent will distribute to each Escrow Interest Holder such Escrow Interest Holder’s Escrow Pro Rata Share of the Escrow Fund, subject to amounts that the Acquirer may continue to hold in the Escrow Fund pursuant to Section 8.4. Any portion of the Escrow Fund held by the Escrow Agent pursuant to Section 8.4 following the Escrow Release Date or Extended Escrow Release Date, as applicable, with respect to pending but unresolved claims for indemnification that is not awarded to Acquirer upon the resolution of such claims shall be distributed by the Escrow Agent to the Escrow Interest Holder within five Business Days following resolution of such claims and in accordance with each such Escrow Interest Holder’s applicable Escrow Pro Rata Share of such portion of the Escrow Fund. All distributions to each Escrow Interest Holder pursuant to this Section 8.1(b) shall be made in the same form of payment as such Escrow Interest Holder contributed to the Escrow Fund. Acquirer shall release the shares of Acquirer Common Stock held in the Escrow Fund pursuant to this Section 8.1(b) without restrictive legends except as to shares of Acquirer Common Stock held by persons reasonably determined by Acquirer to be Affiliates (as such term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act) and shall deliver such shares to the brokerage accounts of the applicable Converting Holders pursuant to information delivered by the Stockholders’ Agent.

8.2Indemnification.

(e)Subject to the limitations set forth in this Article VIII, from and after the Closing, each Converting Holder shall (in its capacity as a Converting Holder and/or MRP Participant, as applicable) severally but not jointly indemnify and hold harmless Acquirer, the Merger Subs and the Company and their respective officers, directors, agents and employees and each Person, if any, who controls or may control Acquirer within the meaning of the Securities Act (each, an “Indemnified Person”) from and against, and shall compensate and reimburse each Indemnified Person for, any and all losses, Liabilities, damages (not including punitive damages other than punitive damages specifically awarded to third parties), claims, fees, Taxes, interest, costs and expenses, including costs of investigation and defense and reasonable fees and expenses of counsel (other than costs related to in-house counsel), experts and other professionals, directly or indirectly, whether or not due to a Third-Party Claim (collectively, “Indemnifiable Damages”), arising out of, resulting from or in connection with:

(i)any failure of any representation or warranty made (A) by the Company herein or in the Company Disclosure Letter (including any exhibit to or schedule of the Company Disclosure Letter) or (B) by any Person that delivered an Investor Representation Letter, in such Investor Representation Letter, to be true and correct (I) as of the Agreement Date (except in the case of representations and warranties that by their terms speak only as of a specified date or dates, which representations and warranties shall be true and correct as of such date or dates) or the date of such Investor Representation Letter, as applicable, or (II) as of the Closing Date as though such representation or warranty were made as of the Closing Date (except in the case of representations and warranties that by their terms speak only as of a specific date or dates, which representations and warranties shall be true and correct as of such date or dates);

(ii)any failure of any certification, representation or warranty made by the Company in any certificate (other than the Spreadsheet and the Company Closing Financial Certificate) delivered to Acquirer pursuant to this Agreement to be true and correct as of the date such certificate is delivered to Acquirer;

(iii)any breach of, or default in connection with, any of the covenants, agreements or obligations made by the Company in this Agreement;

(iv)any inaccuracies in the Spreadsheet or the Company Closing Financial Certificate (including any failure to include any Pre-Closing Taxes and Taxes described in Section 1.8 in the calculation of Company Net Working Capital), or any Final Net Working Capital Shortfall;

(v)any payments or issuances made with respect to Dissenting Shares to the extent that such payments or issuances, in the aggregate, exceed the value of the consideration that otherwise would have been payable or issuable (based on the Acquirer Stock Price) pursuant to Section 1.3(a) upon the exchange of such Dissenting Shares, and any interest, costs, expenses and fees incurred by any Indemnified Person in connection with the exercise of any dissenters’ or appraisal rights;

(vi)any claims by (A) any then-current or former holder or alleged then-current or former holder of any Equity Interests of the Company (including any predecessors), arising out of, resulting from or in connection with (I) the Transactions or this Agreement, including the allocation of the Merger Consideration, or (II) such Person’s status or alleged status as a holder of Equity Interests of the Company (including any predecessors) at any time at or prior to the Closing, whether for breach of fiduciary duty or otherwise, (B) any Person to the effect that such Person is entitled to any Equity Interest of Acquirer or the Company or any payment in connection with the Transactions other than as specifically set forth on the Spreadsheet or (C) any Person with respect to any Company Option Plan or any other plan, policy or Contract providing for compensation to any Person in the form of Equity Interests;

(vii)any matter set forth in Schedule 2.5 of the Company Disclosure Letter or that is or would be an exception to the representations and warranties made on each date in Section 2.5 (Litigation);

(viii)any Pre-Closing Taxes (except to the extent included in the calculation of Net Working Capital); and

(ix)and with respect to any Converting Holder, any fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful breach by or on behalf of the Company or such Converting Holder.

(f)All Indemnifiable Damages shall be calculated net of the amount of any actual recoveries actually received by an Indemnified Person prior to the Escrow Release Date or Extended Escrow Release Date, as applicable, under any existing insurance policies and contractual indemnification or contribution provisions (in each case, calculated net of any actual collection costs and reserves, expenses, deductibles or premium adjustments or retrospectively rated premiums (as determined in good faith by an Indemnified Person) incurred or paid to procure such recoveries) in respect of any Indemnifiable Damages suffered, paid, sustained or incurred by any Indemnified Person; provided that no Indemnified Person shall have any obligation to seek to obtain or continue to pursue any such recoveries.

(g)Materiality and knowledge standards or qualifications, qualifications or requirements that a matter be or not be “reasonably expected” or “reasonably likely” to occur and qualifications by reference to the defined term “Material Adverse Effect” in any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation shall only be taken into account in determining whether an inaccuracy in such representation or warranty, or a breach of such covenant, agreement or obligation, exists, and shall not be taken into account in determining the amount of any Indemnifiable Damages with respect to such inaccuracy or breach.

8.3Indemnifiable Damage Threshold; Other Limitations.

(t)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Indemnified Person may make a claim in respect of any claim for Indemnifiable Damages arising out of, resulting from or in connection with the matters listed in clauses (i) or (ii) of Section 8.2(a) (other than claims arising out of, resulting from or in connection with any failure of any of the Special Representations) unless and until a Claim Certificate (together with any other delivered Claim Certificates) describing Indemnifiable Damages in an aggregate amount greater than $500,000 (the “Basket”) has been delivered, in which case the Indemnified Person may make claims for indemnification and may receive shares of Acquirer Common Stock from the Escrow Fund for all Indemnifiable Damages (including the amount of the Basket). The Basket shall not apply to any other Indemnifiable Damages or claims therefor.

(u)If the Merger is consummated, recovery from the Escrow Fund shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedy of the Indemnified Persons for monetary damages under this Agreement (and not specific performance or other non-monetary equitable remedies) arising out of, relating to or in connection with the matters listed in clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 8.2(a), except (I), in the case of fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful breach by or on behalf of the Company or any representative of the Company or, with respect to a Converting Holder, with respect to which such Converting Holder has participated and (II), any failure of any of the representations and warranties made by (A) the Company in Section 2.2 (Capital Structure), Section 2.3 (Authority; Non-contravention), Section 2.9(b) (Status of Intellectual Property, solely as such representation and warranty relates to ownership of Company-Owned Intellectual Property), Section 2.10 (Taxes), Section 2.11 (Employee Benefit Plans and Employee Matters) or Section 2.16 (Transaction Fees), (B) the Company in any certificate delivered to Acquirer pursuant to this Agreement that are within the scope of those covered by the foregoing Sections or (C) any Person that delivered an Investor Representation Letter in such Investor Representation Letter (collectively, the “Special Representations”) to be true and correct as aforesaid.

(v)In the case of any claims for Indemnifiable Damages arising out of, resulting from or in connection with the failure of any of the Special Representations to be true and correct as aforesaid, or a Final Net Working Capital Shortfall indemnifiable pursuant to Section 1.6(f), or the matters listed in clauses (iii) through (ix) of Section 8.2(a) (collectively, “Fundamental Claims”), after Indemnified Persons have exhausted or made claims upon all the cash and all the shares of Acquirer Common Stock held in the Escrow Fund (after taking into account all other claims for indemnification from the Escrow Fund made by Indemnified Persons), each Converting Holder shall have Liability for such Converting Holder’s Pro Rata Share of the amount of any Indemnifiable Damages resulting therefrom. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (i) the total Liability of a Converting Holder for Fundamental Claims shall be limited to the aggregate amount of cash and the aggregate number of shares of Acquirer Common Stock actually received by such Converting Holder pursuant to Section 1.3(a) (net of all other claims recovered against such Converting Holder) and Section 1.4(d) and (ii) any limitation of Liability in this Section 8.3(c) shall not apply with respect to a Converting Holder, with respect to which such Converting Holder has actually participated in fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful breach by or on behalf of the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, in no circumstance shall a Converting Holder have Liability in excess of the aggregate amount of cash and the aggregate number of shares of Acquirer Common Stock actually received by such Converting Holder except in the case of the Converting Holder’s actual participation in the fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful breach by or on behalf of the Company.

(w)An Indemnified Person’s first source of recovery for indemnification claims under this Article VIII shall be recourse against the shares of Acquirer Common Stock and cash in the Escrow Fund and the amounts that an Indemnified Person recovers from the Escrow Fund pursuant to Fundamental Claims shall not reduce the amount that an Indemnified Person may recover with respect to claims that are not Fundamental Claims; provided that, following the date that is eighteen (18) months after the Effective Time, no Indemnified Person shall make any Fundamental Claim (or any other claim) against the Escrow Fund other than Capitalization Claims, but shall instead seek recourse against the Converting Holders directly, subject to the other limitations set forth in this Article VIII. By way of illustration and not limitation, assuming there are no other claims for indemnification, compensation or reimbursement, in the event that Indemnifiable Damages resulting from a Fundamental Claim are first satisfied from the Escrow Fund and such recovery fully depletes the Escrow Fund, the maximum amount recoverable by an Indemnified Person pursuant to a subsequent claim that is not a Fundamental Claim shall continue to be the full dollar value of the Escrow Fund (based on the Acquirer Stock Price) irrespective of the fact that the Escrow Fund was used to satisfy such Fundamental Claim, such that the amount recoverable for such two claims would be the same regardless of the chronological order in which they were made.

(x)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (i) no Converting Holder shall have any right of indemnification, contribution or right of advancement from Acquirer, the First Step Surviving Corporation or any other Indemnified Person with respect to any Indemnifiable Damages claimed by any Indemnified Person or any right of subrogation against the Company or the First Step Surviving Corporation with respect to any indemnification of an Indemnified Person by reason of any of the matters set forth in Section 8.2(a), (ii) the rights and remedies of the Indemnified Persons after the Effective Time shall not be limited by (x) any investigation by or on behalf of, or disclosure to (other than in the Company Disclosure Letter with respect to clauses (i), (ii) and (ix) of Section 8.2(a), subject to any limitations expressly set forth therein), any Indemnified Person at or prior to the Effective Time regarding any failure, breach or other event or circumstance or (y) any waiver of any condition to the Closing related thereto, (iii) if an Indemnified Person’s claim under this Article VIII may be properly characterized in multiple ways in accordance with this Article VIII such that such claim may or may not be subject to different limitations depending on such characterization, then such Indemnified Person shall have the right to characterize such claim in a manner that maximizes the recovery and time to assert such claim permitted in accordance with this Article VIII, (iv) an Indemnified Person shall not be entitled to double recovery for any Indemnifiable Damages even though such Indemnifiable Damages may have resulted from the breach of one or more representations, warranties or covenants in this Agreement, and (v) no Converting Holder shall be liable for the breach of any covenant of another Converting Holder or any fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful breach by or on behalf of any Person other than the Company or such Converting Holder; provided that nothing herein shall limit the liability of a Converting Holder for any fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful breach by such Converting Holder.

8.4Period for Claims. Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 8.4, the period (the “Claims Period”) during which claims may be made (i) against the Escrow Fund for Indemnifiable Damages arising out of, resulting from or in connection with the matters listed in clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 8.2(a) (other than with respect to any of the Special Representations) shall commence at the Closing and terminate at 11:59 p.m. local time on the Escrow Release Date; provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, no claim may be made based upon any state of facts (including any third-party claim) discovered after the Non-Fundamental Survival Date (as defined in Section 9.1), and (ii) for Indemnifiable Damages arising out of, resulting from or in connection with all other matters, including Fundamental Claims, shall commence at the Closing and terminate at 11:59 p.m. local time on the date that is 30 days following (A) in the case of claims for Indemnifiable Damages arising out of, resulting from or in connection with (I) the failure of any of the representations and warranties made by the Company in Section 2.10 (Taxes) to be true and correct as aforesaid or (II) Pre-Closing Taxes, the date that is six years following the Closing and (B) in all other cases the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations; provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, no claim may be made based upon any state of facts (including any third-party claim) discovered after the date that is six years following the Closing in the case of (A) above and the statute of limitations in the case of (B) above. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (i) such portion of the Escrow Fund at the Escrow Release Date as in the reasonable judgment of Acquirer may be necessary to satisfy any pending but unresolved claims for Indemnifiable Damages specified in any Claim Certificate delivered to the Stockholders’ Agent on or prior to the Escrow Release Date shall remain in the Escrow Fund until such claims for Indemnifiable Damages have been resolved or satisfied and (ii) such portion of the Escrow Fund consisting of the Extended Escrow Amount as in the reasonable judgment of Acquirer may be necessary to satisfy any pending but unresolved Capitalization Claims specified in any Claim Certificate delivered to the Stockholders’ Agent on or prior to the Extended Escrow Release Date shall remain in the Escrow Fund until such Capitalization Claims have been resolved or satisfied. The availability of the Escrow Fund to indemnify the Indemnified Persons will be determined without regard to any right to indemnification that any Converting Holder may have in his, her or its capacity as an officer, director, employee or agent of the Company and no such Converting Holder will be entitled to any indemnification from the Company or the First Step Surviving Corporation for amounts paid for indemnification, compensation or reimbursement under this Article VIII.

8.5Claims.

(p)Except for Claims arising under Section 1.6, which shall be governed pursuant thereto, from time to time during the Claims Period, Acquirer may deliver to the Stockholders’ Agent one or more certificates signed by any officer of Acquirer (each, a “Claim Certificate”):

(xiii)stating that an Indemnified Person has incurred, paid, reserved or accrued, or in good faith believes that it may incur, pay, reserve or accrue, Indemnifiable Damages (or that with respect to any Tax matters, that any Tax Authority may raise such matter in audit of Acquirer or its subsidiaries, that could give rise to Indemnifiable Damages);

(xiv)stating the amount of such Indemnifiable Damages (which, in the case of Indemnifiable Damages not yet incurred, paid, reserved or accrued, may be the maximum amount believed by Acquirer in good faith to be incurred, paid, reserved, accrued or demanded by a third party); and

(xv)specifying in reasonable detail (based upon the information then possessed by Acquirer) the individual items of such Indemnifiable Damages included in the amount so stated and the nature of the claim to which such Indemnifiable Damages are related.

(q)Such Claim Certificate (i) need only specify such information to the knowledge of such officer of Acquirer as of the date thereof, (ii) shall not limit any of the rights or remedies of any Indemnified Person with respect to the underlying facts and circumstances specifically set forth in such Claim Certificate and (iii) may be updated and amended from time to time by Acquirer by delivering any updated or amended Claim Certificate, so long as the delivery of the original Claim Certificate is made within the applicable Claims Period and such update or amendment relates to the underlying facts and circumstances specifically set forth in such original Claims Certificate; provided that all claims for Indemnifiable Damages properly set forth in a Claim Certificate or any update or amendment thereto shall remain outstanding until such claims have been resolved or satisfied, notwithstanding the expiration of such Claims Period. No delay in providing such Claim Certificate within the applicable Claims Period shall affect an Indemnified Person’s rights hereunder, unless (and then only to the extent that) the Stockholders’ Agent or the Converting Holders are materially prejudiced thereby.

8.6Resolution of Objections to Claims.

(a)If the Stockholders’ Agent does not contest, by written notice to Acquirer, any claim or claims by Acquirer made in any Claim Certificate within the 30-day period following receipt of the Claim Certificate, then the Escrow Agent shall, upon Acquirer’s direction, distribute to Acquirer an amount in cash and a number of shares of Acquirer Common Stock from the Escrow Fund having a total value equal to the amount of any Indemnifiable Damages corresponding to such claim or claims as set forth in such Claim Certificate.

(b)If the Stockholders’ Agent objects in writing to any claim or claims by Acquirer made in any Claim Certificate within the 30-day period set forth in Section 8.6(a), Acquirer and the Stockholders’ Agent shall attempt in good faith for 45 days after Acquirer’s receipt of such written objection to resolve such objection. If Acquirer and the Stockholders’ Agent shall so agree, a joint written instruction setting forth such agreement shall be prepared, signed by both parties and delivered to the Escrow Agent. Upon receipt of such instruction, the Escrow Agent shall distribute to Acquirer an amount in cash and a number of shares of Acquirer Common Stock from the Escrow Fund in accordance with the terms of such joint written instruction.

(c)If no such agreement can be reached during the 45-day period for good faith negotiation set forth in Section 8.6(b), but in any event upon the expiration of such 45-day period, either Acquirer or the Stockholders’ Agent may bring an arbitration in accordance with the terms of Section 9.11 to resolve the matter. The decision of the arbitrator as to the validity and amount of any claim in such Claim Certificate shall be non-appealable, binding and conclusive upon the parties hereto and the Converting Holders, and Acquirer shall be entitled to instruct the Escrow Agent to distribute to Acquirer and amount in cash and a number of shares of Acquirer Common Stock from the Escrow Fund in accordance therewith.

(d)Judgment upon any determination of an arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. For purposes of this Section 8.6(d), in any suit hereunder in which any claim or the amount thereof stated in the Claim Certificate is at issue, Acquirer shall be deemed to be the prevailing party unless the arbitrator determines in favor of the Stockholders’ Agent (on behalf of the Converting Holders) with respect to more than one-half of the amount in dispute, in which case the Converting Holders shall be deemed to be the prevailing party. The non-prevailing party to an arbitration shall pay its own fees and expenses and the fees and expenses of the prevailing party, including attorneys’ fees and costs, reasonably incurred in connection with such suit.

(e)For the purpose of compensating Acquirer (on behalf of itself or any other Indemnified Person) for any Indemnifiable Damages pursuant to this Agreement, each whole share of Acquirer Common Stock in the Escrow Fund shall be deemed to have a value equal to the Acquirer Stock Price (as adjusted to appropriately reflect any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, reorganization, reclassification, combination, recapitalization or other like change with respect to Acquirer Common Stock occurring after the Effective Time). Any and all payments of cash and shares of Acquirer Common Stock made to an Indemnified Person hereunder shall be made on the same ratio of cash and shares of Acquirer Common Stock equal to the ratio of (i) the Participating Non-Electing Investor Cash Escrow Amount to (ii) the sum of the Participating Electing Investor Stock Escrow Amount and the Management Retention Plan Stock Escrow Amount.

(f)Notwithstanding anything in this Section 8.6, any Claim for any Indemnifiable Damages pursuant to Section 1.6 with respect to any Final Net Working Capital Shortfall shall be governed pursuant to the provisions, including but not limited to the dispute resolution provisions, of Section 1.6.

8.7Stockholders’ Agent.

(f)At the Closing, Shareholder Representative Services LLC shall be constituted and appointed as the Stockholders’ Agent. The Stockholders’ Agent shall be the agent for and on behalf of the Converting Holders to: (i) execute, as the Stockholders’ Agent, this Agreement and any agreement or instrument entered into or delivered in connection with the Transactions, (ii) after the Closing, give and receive notices, instructions and communications permitted or required under this Agreement, or any other agreement, document or instrument entered into or executed in connection herewith, for and on behalf of any Converting Holder, to or from Acquirer (on behalf of itself or any other Indemnified Person) relating to this Agreement or any of the Transactions and any other matters contemplated by this Agreement or by such other agreement, document or instrument (except to the extent that this Agreement expressly contemplates that any such notice or communication shall be given or received by each Converting Holder individually), (iii) review, negotiate and agree to and authorize Acquirer to cancel a number of shares of Acquirer Common Stock held in the Escrow Fund in satisfaction of claims asserted by Acquirer (on behalf of itself or any other Indemnified Person, including by not objecting to such claims) pursuant to this Article VIII, (iv) object to such claims pursuant to Section 8.6, (v) consent or agree to, negotiate, enter into, or, if applicable, contest, prosecute or defend, settlements and compromises of, and demand arbitration and comply with Orders of courts and awards of arbitrators with respect to, such claims, resolve any such claims, take any actions in connection with the resolution of any dispute relating hereto or to the Transactions by arbitration, settlement or otherwise, and take or forego any or all actions permitted or required of any Converting Holder or necessary in the judgment of the Stockholders’ Agent for the accomplishment of the foregoing and all of the other terms, conditions and limitations of this Agreement, (vi) consult with legal counsel, independent public accountants and other experts selected by it, solely at the cost and expense of the Converting Holders, (vii) consent or agree to any amendment to this Agreement or to waive any terms and conditions of this Agreement providing rights or benefits to the Converting Holders (other than with respect to the payment and issuance of the Merger Consideration less the Escrow Amount and the Extended Escrow Amount) in accordance with the terms hereof and in the manner provided herein and (viii) take all actions necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Stockholders’ Agent for the accomplishment of the foregoing, in each case without having to seek or obtain the consent of any Person under any circumstance. Acquirer, Merger Sub and their respective Affiliates (including after the Effective Time, the First Step Surviving Corporation) shall be entitled to rely on the appointment of Shareholder Representative Services LLC as the Stockholders’ Agent and treat such Stockholders’ Agent as the duly appointed attorney-in-fact of each Converting Holder and has having the duties, power and authority provided for in this Section 8.7. The Converting Holders shall be bound by all actions taken and documents executed by the Stockholders’ Agent in connection with this Article VIII, and Acquirer and other Indemnified Persons shall be entitled to rely exclusively on any action or decision of the Stockholders’ Agent. The Person serving as the Stockholders’ Agent may be removed or replaced from time to time, or if such Person resigns from its position as the Stockholders’ Agent, then a successor may be appointed, by the holders of a majority in interest of the aggregate number of shares of Acquirer Common Stock then held in the Escrow Fund upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice to Acquirer. No bond shall be required of the Stockholders’ Agent.

(g)The Stockholders’ Agent shall not be liable to any Converting Holder for any act done or omitted hereunder as the Stockholders’ Agent while acting in good faith (and any act done or omitted pursuant to the advice of counsel shall be conclusive evidence of such good faith) and without gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Stockholders’ Agent shall serve as the Stockholders’ Agent without compensation other than pursuant to the terms of that certain Engagement Agreement to be entered into by and among the Stockholders’ Agent, the Company and certain of the Converting Holders (the “SRS Engagement Agreement”). The Converting Holders shall severally based on their Pro Rata Share but not jointly indemnify the Stockholders’ Agent and hold it harmless from and against any and all losses, liabilities, damages, claims, penalties, fines, forfeitures, actions, fees, costs and expenses (including the fees and expenses of counsel and experts and their staffs and all expense of document location, duplication and shipment) (collectively, “Agent Losses”) arising out of, resulting from or in connection with the acceptance or administration of its duties hereunder and under the Escrow Agreement, in each case as such Agent Loss is suffered or incurred; provided, that in the event that any such Agent Loss is finally adjudicated to have been directly caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Stockholders’ Agent, the Stockholders’ Agent will reimburse the Converting Holders the amount of such indemnified Agent Loss to the extent attributable to such gross negligence or willful misconduct. If not paid directly to the Stockholders’ Agent by the Converting Holders, such Agent Losses, may be recovered by the Stockholders’ Agent from (i) the amounts in the Expense Fund and (ii) the portion of the Escrow Fund otherwise distributable to the Converting Holders (and not distributed or distributable to an Indemnified Person or subject to a pending indemnification claim of an Indemnified Person) on or after the Escrow Release Date pursuant to the terms hereof, at the time of distribution, and such recovery will be made from the Converting Holders according to their respective Pro Rata Shares of such losses, Liabilities or expenses; provided that while this section allows the Stockholders’ Agent to be paid from the Expense Fund and the Escrow Fund, this does not relieve the Converting Holders from their obligation to promptly pay such Agent Losses as they are suffered or incurred, nor does it prevent the Stockholders’ Agent from seeking any remedies available to it at law or otherwise.

(h)After the Closing, any notice or communication given or received by, and any decision, action, failure to act within a designated period of time, agreement, consent, settlement, resolution or instruction of, the Stockholders’ Agent that is within the scope of the Stockholders’ Agent’s authority under Section 8.7(a) shall constitute a notice or communication to or by, or a decision, action, failure to act within a designated period of time, agreement, consent, settlement, resolution or instruction of all the Converting Holders and shall be final, binding and conclusive upon each such Converting Holder; and each Indemnified Person shall be entitled to rely exclusively upon any such notice, communication, decision, action, failure to act within a designated period of time, agreement, consent, settlement, resolution or instruction as being a notice or communication to or by, or a decision, action, failure to act within a designated period of time, agreement, consent, settlement, resolution or instruction of, each and every such Converting Holder. Acquirer, Merger Sub, the First Step Surviving Corporation and the Indemnified Persons are hereby relieved from any Liability to any Person for any acts done by them in accordance with such notice, communication, decision, action, failure to act within a designated period of time, agreement, consent, settlement, resolution or instruction of the Stockholders’ Agent.

(i)Upon the Closing, the Paying Agent will wire to the Stockholders’ Agent $350,000 (the “Expense Fund”), which will be used for the purposes of paying directly, or reimbursing the Stockholders’ Agent for, any third party expenses pursuant to this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement. The Converting Holders will not receive any interest or earnings on the Expense Fund and irrevocably transfer and assign to the Stockholders’ Agent any ownership right that they may otherwise have had in any such interest or earnings. The Stockholders’ Agent will not be liable for any loss of principal of the Expense Fund other than as a result of its gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Stockholders’ Agent will hold these funds separate from its corporate funds, will not use these funds for its operating expenses or any other corporate purposes and will not voluntarily make these funds available to its creditors in the event of bankruptcy. Contemporaneous with or as soon as practicable following the completion of the Stockholders’ Agent’s responsibilities, the Stockholders’ Agent will deliver the balance of the Expense Fund to the Escrow Agent for further distribution to the Converting Holders on an Escrow Pro Rata Share basis. For tax purposes, the Expense Fund will be treated as having been received and voluntarily set aside by the Converting Holders at the time of Closing.

8.8Third-Party Claims. In the event Acquirer becomes aware of a claim by a third party (a “Third-Party Claim”) that Acquirer in good faith believes may result in a claim for Indemnifiable Damages by or on behalf of an Indemnified Person, Acquirer shall have the right in its sole discretion to conduct the defense of and to settle or resolve such Third-Party Claim (and the costs and expenses incurred by Acquirer in connection with such defense, settlement or resolution (including reasonable attorneys’ fees (other than those of in-house legal counsel), other professionals’ and experts’ fees and court or arbitration costs) shall be included in the Indemnifiable Damages for which Acquirer shall be entitled to receive indemnification pursuant to a claim made hereunder, and such costs and expenses shall constitute Indemnifiable Damages subject to indemnification under Section 8.2 regardless of whether it is ultimately determined that such Third-Party Claim arose out of, resulted from or was in connection with a matter listed in Section 8.2). The Stockholders’ Agent shall have the right to receive copies of all pleadings, notices and communications with respect to such Third-Party Claim to the extent that receipt of such documents does not affect any privilege relating to any Indemnified Person. However, Acquirer shall have the right in its sole discretion to determine and conduct, the defense of any Third-Party Claim and the settlement, adjustment or compromise of such Third-Party Claim. Unless otherwise consented to in writing in advance by Acquirer in its sole discretion, the Stockholders’ Agent and its Affiliates may not participate in any Third-Party Claim or any action related to such Third-Party Claim (including any discussions or negotiations in connection with the settlement, adjustment or compromise thereof). Solely to the extent that either the Stockholders’ Agent has consented to the amount of any settlement or resolution by Acquirer of any such claim (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld and which consent shall be deemed to have been given unless the Stockholders’ Agent shall have objected within 30 days after a written request therefor by Acquirer), or if the Stockholders’ Agent shall have been determined to have unreasonably withheld its consent to the amount of any such settlement or resolution, neither the Stockholders’ Agent nor any Converting Holder shall have any power or authority to object under this Article VIII to the amount of any claim by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person against the Escrow Fund for indemnity with respect to such settlement or resolution. If the Stockholders’ Agent reasonably objects to any such settlement, the existence or amount of Indemnifiable Damages shall be determined in accordance with Section 8.6.

8.9Treatment of Indemnification Payments. Acquirer, the Stockholders’ Agent and the Converting Holders agree to treat (and cause their respective Affiliates to treat) any payment received by the Indemnified Persons pursuant to this Article VIII as adjustments to the Merger Consideration for all Tax purposes to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law.

8.10Sole and Exclusive Remedy. This Article VIII shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedy after the Closing for recovery of Indemnifiable Damages by the Indemnified Persons (other than, with respect to a Converting Holder, claims for fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful breach in which a Converting Holder participates). It is the express intent of the parties that, if an applicable survival period as contemplated by this Agreement is shorter than the statute of limitations that would otherwise apply, then, by contract, the applicable statute of limitations shall be reduced to the survival period contemplated hereby. The parties further acknowledge that the time periods set forth in this Article VIII and Section 9.1 for the assertion of claims under this Agreement are the result of arms’-length negotiation among the parties and that they intend for the time periods to be enforced as agreed by the parties.

ARTICLE IXGENERAL PROVISIONS

9.1Survival of Representations, Warranties and Covenants. If the Merger is consummated, the representations and warranties made by the Company herein, in the Company Disclosure Letter (including any exhibit to or schedule of the Company Disclosure Letter), and in the other certificates contemplated by this Agreement shall survive the Closing and remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation or disclosure made by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto, until the date that is eighteen (18) months following the Closing Date (the “Non-Fundamental Survival Date”); provided that, regardless of any investigation or disclosure made by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto, the Special Representations will remain operative and in full force and effect until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations and for claims against the Converting Holders that seek recovery of Indemnifiable Damages arising out of, resulting from or in connection with an inaccuracy in such representations or warranties; provided, further, that no right to indemnification pursuant to Article VIII in respect of any claim that is set forth in a Claim Certificate delivered to the Stockholders’ Agent on or prior to the Escrow Release Date in accordance with Article VIII shall be affected by the expiration of such representations and warranties; provided, further, that such expiration shall not affect the rights of any Indemnified Person under Article VIII or otherwise to seek recovery of Indemnifiable Damages arising out, resulting from or in connection with any fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful breach by or on behalf of the Company or any representative of the Company or, with respect to a Converting Holder, only to the extent such Converting Holder has actually participated in such fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful breach, which rights shall survive indefinitely. If the Merger is consummated, the representations and warranties made by Acquirer herein and in the other certificates contemplated by this Agreement shall expire and be of no further force or effect as of the Closing. If the Merger is consummated, all covenants, agreements and obligations of the parties hereto shall expire and be of no further force or effect as of the Closing, except to the extent such covenants, agreements and obligations provide that they are to be performed after the Closing; provided that no right to indemnification pursuant to Article VIII in respect of any claim based upon any breach of a covenant, agreement or obligation shall be affected by the expiration of such covenant, agreement or obligation.

Accordingly, the Plan of Merger shall not include any disclosure schedule, other schedule or agreement entered into in connection herewith or any portion thereof unless specifically identified as part of the Plan of Merger approved by the Company’s board of directors for submission to the Company’s stockholders. Without limitation of the foregoing, any portion of this Agreement, any Exhibit, any part of the Company Disclosure Letter or any other schedule hereto or agreement entered into in connection herewith and otherwise part of the Plan of Merger may be redacted by the Company, prior to submission to a stockholder vote, as necessary to prevent public disclosure of facts ascertainable outside of the Plan of Merger that (1) the Company considers competitively sensitive information of the Company, Acquirer or Merger Subs; or (2) that identifies any current or former employee or consultant of the Company; provided that the manner in which such redacted facts shall operate upon the terms of the Merger is clearly and expressly set forth in the unredacted portions of such documents.
