1.1               Agreement to Tender.

 

(a)                Subject to the terms of this Agreement, unless and until this Agreement shall have been validly terminated in accordance with Section 5.2, the Shareholder hereby agrees to validly and irrevocably tender or cause to be validly and irrevocably tendered in the Offer all of the Shareholder’s Subject Shares pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Offer, free and clear of all Encumbrances (as defined below) except for Permitted Encumbrances (as defined below).

 

 

 

 

(b)                Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, subject to the terms of this Agreement, unless and until this Agreement shall have been validly terminated in accordance with Section 5.2, as promptly as practicable after, but in no event later than ten (10) Business Days after, the commencement (within the meaning of Rule 14d-2 under the Exchange Act) of the Offer (or in the case of any shares of Company Common Stock acquired by the Shareholder subsequent to such tenth (10th) Business Day and prior to the expiration of the Offer, within one (1) Business Day after the acquisition of such shares, and in any event prior to the expiration of the Offer), the Shareholder shall deliver pursuant to the terms of the Offer (i) in the case of Subject Shares that are represented by Certificates, a letter of transmittal with respect to all of the Shareholder’s Subject Shares complying with the terms of the Offer, together with the Certificate(s) representing all such Subject Shares, (ii) in the case of any Subject Shares that are not Certificated Shares, an “agent’s message” or such other evidence of transfer of such Subject Shares in the Offer as the depositary for the Offer may reasonably request (or, if applicable in the case of Subject Shares beneficially owned through a broker, bank or other nominee, written instructions to the Shareholder’s broker, dealer or other nominee that such Subject Shares be validly tendered, including a reference to this Agreement, and requesting delivery of an “agent’s message” or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the depositary for the Offer may reasonably request) and (iii) all other documents or instruments, to the extent applicable, required to be delivered pursuant to the terms of the Offer to validly tender shares pursuant to the Offer. The Shareholder agrees that, once any of the Subject Shares are tendered, the Shareholder will not withdraw such Subject Shares from the Offer, unless and until this Agreement shall have been validly terminated in accordance with Section 5.2. In the event this Agreement has been validly terminated in accordance with Section 5.2, Merger Sub shall, and Parent shall cause Merger Sub to, promptly return to the Shareholder all Subject Shares the Shareholder tendered in the Offer. At all times commencing with the date hereof and continuing until the valid termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, the Shareholder shall not tender any of the Shareholder’s Subject Shares into any tender or exchange offer commenced by a Person other than Parent, Merger Sub or any other Affiliate of Parent.

 

1.2               Agreement to Vote. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Shareholder hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that, for so long as this Agreement has not been validly terminated in accordance with Section 5.2, at any annual or special meeting of the shareholders of the Company, however called, including any adjournment or postponement thereof, and in connection with any action proposed to be taken by written consent of the shareholders of the Company, the Shareholder shall, in each case, to the fullest extent that the Subject Shares are entitled to vote or consent thereon, (a) appear at each such meeting or otherwise cause all such Subject Shares to be counted as present thereat for purposes of determining a quorum and (b) be present (in person or by proxy) and vote (or cause to be voted), or deliver (or cause to be delivered) a written consent with respect to, all of the Subject Shares (i) against any action or agreement that would reasonably be expected to (A) result in a breach of any covenant, representation or warranty or any other obligation or agreement of the Company contained in the Merger Agreement, or of the Shareholder contained in this Agreement, or (B) result in any of the conditions set forth in Article 8 (Conditions Precedent to the Merger) or Annex I (Conditions to the Offer) of the Merger Agreement not being satisfied on or before the End Date; (ii) against any change in the Company Board that is not recommended or approved by the Company Board; and (iii) against any Acquisition Proposal or any other action, agreement or transaction involving the Company that is intended, or would reasonably be expected, to impede, interfere with, delay, postpone or prevent the consummation of the Offer or the Merger. Subject to the proxy granted under Section 1.3 below and until the Subject Shares are accepted for payment in the Offer, the Shareholder shall retain at all times the right to vote the Subject Shares in the Shareholder’s sole discretion, and without any other limitation, on any matters other than those expressly set forth in this Section 1.2 that are at any time or from time to time presented for consideration to the Company’s shareholders. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing commitments in Section 1.1 and Section 1.2 apply to any Subject Shares held by any trust, limited partnership or other entity directly or indirectly holding Subject Shares over which the Shareholder exercises direct or indirect voting control.

1.3               Grant of Irrevocable Proxy; Appointment of Proxy. Solely with respect to the matters described in Section 1.2, for so long as this Agreement has not been validly terminated in accordance with Section 5.2, and in order to secure the obligations of the Shareholder to vote the Subject Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.2 hereof, the Shareholder hereby irrevocably appoints Parent and any designee of Parent, and each of them individually, as its attorney and proxy with full power of substitution and resubstitution, to the full extent of the Shareholder’s voting rights with respect to all Subject Shares (which proxy shall be irrevocable during the term of this Agreement, shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable proxy, and shall revoke any and all prior proxies granted by the Shareholder with respect to the Subject Securities) to vote, and to execute written consents with respect to, all of the Subject Shares solely on the matters described in Section 1.2 and in accordance therewith if, and only if, the Shareholder fails to comply with the provisions of Section 1.2. The Shareholder agrees to execute any further agreement or form reasonably necessary or appropriate to confirm and effectuate the grant of the proxy contained herein. Such proxy shall automatically terminate upon the valid termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 5.2; provided, that Parent may terminate this proxy at any time in its sole discretion by written notice provided to the Shareholder. Parent agrees not to exercise the proxy granted herein for any purpose other than the purposes described in this Section 1.3. Except as expressly set forth herein and without limiting the Shareholder’s obligations under Section 1.2, Parent and Merger Sub acknowledge (i) that the proxy and power of attorney granted hereby shall not be effective for any other purpose, and (ii) such proxy and power of attorney shall not limit the rights of the Shareholder to vote or exercise its rights to consent in favor of or against, or abstain with respect to, any matter presented to the Company’s shareholders that is not subject to the proxy and power of attorney granted to Parent in respect of the Subject Shares pursuant to this Section 1.3.

 

1.4               Treatment of Warrants. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, at the Effective Time, any In-the-Money Warrant held by the Shareholder will automatically be cancelled and converted into and will become a right to receive the In-the-Money Warrant Consideration in accordance with Section 3.8(e) of the Merger Agreement without any further action required by the Shareholder.

 

1.5               No Obligation to Exercise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement shall obligate the Shareholder to exercise any Company Option or any other right to acquire any shares of Company Common Stock.

ARTICLE IV

ADDITIONAL COVENANTS OF THE STOCKHOLDERS

 

The Shareholder hereby covenants and agrees that until the valid termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 5.2:

 

4.1               No Transfer; No Inconsistent Arrangements.

 

(a)                Except as provided hereunder or under the Merger Agreement (which, for clarity, includes the tendering of the Subject Shares into the Offer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Merger Agreement), from and after the date hereof and until this Agreement is validly terminated in accordance with Section 5.2, the Shareholder shall not, directly or indirectly, (1) create or permit to exist any Encumbrance, other than Permitted Encumbrances, on any of the Shareholder’s Subject Shares, (2) transfer, sell (including short sell), assign, gift, hedge, distribute, pledge, grant a participation interest in, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of (including, for the avoidance of doubt, by depositing, submitting or otherwise tendering any such Subject Shares into any tender or exchange offer other than the Offer), or enter into any derivative arrangement with respect to (collectively, “Transfer”), any of the Shareholder’s Subject Shares, or any right or interest therein (or consent to any of the foregoing), (3) enter into any Contract with respect to any Transfer of the Shareholder’s Subject Shares or any legal or beneficial interest therein, (4) grant or permit the grant of any proxy (other than this Agreement), power-of-attorney or other authorization or consent in or with respect to any the Shareholder’s Subject Shares, (5) deposit or permit the deposit of any of the Shareholder’s Subject Shares into a voting trust or enter into a voting agreement or arrangement (other than this Agreement) with respect to any of the Shareholder’s Subject Shares, or (6) take or permit any other action that would in any way restrict, limit, impede, delay or interfere with the performance of the Shareholder’s obligations hereunder in any material respect, otherwise make any representation or warranty of the Shareholder herein untrue or incorrect, or have the effect of preventing or disabling the Shareholder from performing any of its obligations under this Agreement. Any action taken in violation of the foregoing sentence shall be null and void ab initio. The Shareholder hereby authorizes Parent to direct the Company to impose stop orders to prevent the Transfer of any Subject Shares on the books of the Company in violation of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Shareholder may Transfer Subject Shares to any Affiliate of the Shareholder; provided, that such Transfer shall be permitted only if all of the representations and warranties in this Agreement with respect to the Shareholder would be true and correct at the time of (and immediately prior to giving effect to) such Transfer and such transferee has executed and delivered to Parent and Merger Sub a counterpart to this Agreement pursuant to which such transferee agrees in writing to be bound by all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement and acknowledges and agrees that such transferee shall constitute the Shareholder for all purposes of this Agreement (any such Transfer, a “Permitted Transfer”). If any involuntary Transfer of any of the Shareholder’s Subject Shares in the Company shall occur (including a sale by the Shareholder’s trustee in any bankruptcy, or a sale to a purchaser at any creditor’s or court sale), the transferee (which term, as used herein, shall include any and all transferees and subsequent transferees of the initial transferee) shall, subject to applicable Law, take and hold such Subject Shares subject to all of the restrictions, obligations, liabilities and rights under this Agreement, which shall continue in full force and effect until the valid termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 5.2.

(b)                Unless and until this Agreement shall have been validly terminated in accordance with Section 5.2, the Shareholder agrees that it shall not, and shall cause each of its Affiliates not to, become a member of a “group” with respect to any Subject Shares (as defined under Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act) for the purpose of opposing or competing with or taking any actions in opposition or competition with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Merger Agreement.

 

(c)                Notwithstanding Section 4.1(a), the Shareholder may make Transfers of its Subject Shares as Parent may agree in writing in Parent’s sole discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) any Shareholder that is an individual may Transfer Subject Shares (including Company Options, Company RSUs, Company Warrants and any shares of Company Common Stock underlying such Company Options, Company RSUs and Company Warrants) (i) to any member of the Shareholder’s immediate family, (ii) to a trust for the sole benefit of the Shareholder or any member of the Shareholder’s immediate family, the sole trustees of which are the Shareholder or any member of the Shareholder’s immediate family or (iii) by will or under the laws of intestacy upon the death of the Shareholder and (y) any Shareholder that is an entity may Transfer Subject Shares to any Affiliate of the Shareholder; provided, that (1) a Transfer referred to in clauses (x) or (y) of this sentence shall be permitted only if all of the representations and warranties in this Agreement with respect to the Shareholder would be true and correct upon the completion of such Transfer and (2) the transferee of the Transfer referred to in clauses (x) or (y) shall have, prior to any such Transfer, executed and delivered to Parent and Merger Sub a counterpart to this Agreement pursuant to which such transferee shall be bound by all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement and agree and acknowledge that such Person shall constitute a “Shareholder” for all purposes of this Agreement. Nothing herein will restrict the ability of the Shareholder to exercise any Company Option or any other outstanding right to acquire any shares of Company Common Stock.

 

(d)                The Shareholder shall notify Parent as promptly as practicable (and in any event within 48 hours after receipt) in writing of the number of any additional shares of Company Common Stock of which the Shareholder acquires beneficial or record ownership on or after the date hereof.

 

4.2               No Exercise of Appraisal Rights. The Shareholder forever waives and agrees not to exercise any appraisal rights, dissenters’ rights or any similar rights, including pursuant to Title 15, Section 1571 of the PBCL, in respect of the Shareholder’s Subject Shares that may arise in connection with the Transactions, including the Offer and the Merger.

4.3               Documentation and Information. The Shareholder shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, make any public announcement or other communication to a third party (other than (a) Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or their respective Representatives, or (b) the Shareholder’s Affiliates and its and their respective Representatives) regarding this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby without the prior written consent of Parent, except as may be required by applicable Law (provided that, other than in the case of a filing pursuant to Section 13 of the Exchange Act or as required by the rules or regulations of any U.S. or foreign stock exchange, reasonable notice of any such disclosure required by applicable Law will be provided to Parent, and the Shareholder will consider in good faith the reasonable comments of Parent with respect to such disclosure and, to the extent applicable and permissible under applicable Law, otherwise reasonably cooperate with Parent in obtaining confidential treatment with respect to such disclosure).

The Shareholder agrees to promptly provide the Company or Parent with any information it may reasonably request for the preparation of any such disclosure documents, and the Shareholder agrees to promptly notify the Company and Parent of any required corrections with respect to any information supplied by the Shareholder specifically for use in any such disclosure document, if and to the extent that any such information shall have become false or misleading in any material respect.

 

4.4               Adjustments. In the event of any stock split, stock dividend or distribution, merger, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or the like of the capital stock of the Company affecting the Subject Shares, the terms of this Agreement shall apply to the resulting securities.

 

4.5               Waiver of Certain Actions.

4.6               No Solicitation. The Shareholder shall not, and shall direct its Representatives not to, directly or indirectly, (a) solicit, initiate, knowingly facilitate or knowingly encourage (including by way of providing information or taking any other action) any inquiries, proposals or offers, or the making of any submission or announcement of any inquiry, proposal or offer that constitutes or could reasonably be expected to lead to any Acquisition Proposal, (b) directly or indirectly engage in, enter into or participate in any discussions or negotiations with any Person regarding, or furnish to any Person any information or afford access to the business, properties, assets, books or records of the Company to, or take any other action to assist, knowingly facilitate or knowingly encourage any effort by any Person, in each case in connection with or in response to any inquiry, offer or proposal that constitutes, or could reasonably be expected to lead to any Acquisition Proposal (other than, solely in response to an inquiry that did not result from a breach of this Section 4.6, to refer the inquiring person to the restrictions of this Section 4.6 and of the Merger Agreement and to limit the Shareholder’s communication exclusively to such referral), (c) enter into any agreement in principle, letter of intent, term sheet, merger agreement, purchase agreement, acquisition agreement, option agreement or other similar instrument relating to an Acquisition Proposal, (d) knowingly encourage or recommend any other holder of Company Common Stock to vote against the Merger or to not tender shares of Company Common Stock into the Offer or (e) resolve or agree to do any of the foregoing.

Any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived if such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed, in the case of an amendment, by each party to this Agreement or, in the case of a waiver, by each party against whom the waiver is to be effective. No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

5.4               Expenses. All fees and expenses incurred in connection herewith and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the party incurring such fees and expenses, whether or not the Offer or the Merger is consummated.

 

5.5               Entire Agreement; Counterparts. This Agreement and any other documents delivered by the parties in connection herewith constitute the entire agreement and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among or between any of the parties hereto, with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument. The exchange of a fully executed Agreement (in counterparts or otherwise) by PDF shall be sufficient to bind the parties hereto to the term and conditions of this Agreement.

 

5.6               Assignment. No party may assign (by merger, operation of law or otherwise) this Agreement or any of its rights, interests, or obligations hereunder without the prior written approval of the other parties. Any purported assignment in violation of this Agreement will be void ab initio.

 

5.7               Enforcement of the Agreement. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any Shareholder did not perform any of the provisions of this Agreement in accordance with their specific terms or otherwise breached any such provisions. It is accordingly agreed that Parent and Merger Sub shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity, without the requirement of posting bond. Any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon Parent and Merger Sub will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by Law or equity upon Parent or Merger Sub, and the exercise by Parent or Merger Sub of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy.

 

5.8               Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.

 

(a) The Shareholder irrevocably (i) consents to submit itself to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or, solely if such court lacks subject matter jurisdiction, the United States District Court sitting in New Castle County in the State of Delaware with respect to any dispute arising out of, relating to or in connection with this Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereby, (ii) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court, and (iii) agrees that it will not bring any action arising out of, relating to or in connection with this Agreement or any transaction contemplated by this Agreement in any court other than any such court. The Shareholder irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any Proceeding arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or in any federal court located in the State of Delaware, and hereby further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such Proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. The Shareholder hereby agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by U.S. registered mail in accordance with Section 5.1 shall be effective service of process for any proceeding arising out of, relating to or in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

 

(b) EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH SUCH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION ARISING OUT OF, RELATING TO OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT. EACH STOCKHOLDER CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (I) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF PARENT OR MERGER SUB HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT PARENT OR MERGER SUB WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (II) EACH STOCKHOLDER UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATION OF THIS WAIVER, (III) EACH STOCKHOLDER MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY, AND (IV) EACH STOCKHOLDER HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 5.8(b).

5.9               Governing Law. This Agreement, and any dispute arising out of, relating to or in connection with this Agreement, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice or conflict of Law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the Laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware.

 

5.10           Descriptive Headings. The descriptive headings herein are inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to be part of or to affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

 

5.11           Parties in Interest. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each party hereto, and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any other Person any rights or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.

 

5.12           Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of Law, or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner.

 

5.13           Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which, taken together, shall constitute one and the same agreement. This Agreement or any counterpart may be executed and delivered by electronic communications by portable document format (.pdf), each of which shall be deemed an original.

 

5.14           Interpretation. The words “hereof,” “herein,” “hereby,” “herewith” and words of similar import shall, unless otherwise stated, be construed to refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement, and article, section, paragraph and schedule references are to the articles, sections, paragraphs and schedules of this Agreement unless otherwise specified. Whenever the words “include,” “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” The words describing the singular number shall include the plural and vice versa, words denoting either gender shall include both genders and words denoting natural persons shall include all Persons and vice versa. The phrases “the date of this Agreement,” “the date hereof,” “of even date herewith” and terms of similar import, shall be deemed to refer to the date set forth in the preamble to this Agreement. Any reference in this Agreement to a date or time shall be deemed to be such date or time in New York City, unless otherwise specified. The parties agree that they participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any Person by virtue of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement. The word “or” will not be exclusive. Whenever used in this Agreement, any noun or pronoun will be deemed to include the plural as well as the singular and to cover all genders.

5.15           Further Assurances. The Shareholder will execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, all further documents and instruments and use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Laws and regulations, to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

 

5.16           Capacity as Shareholder. The Shareholder signs this Agreement solely in the Shareholder’s capacity as a shareholder of the Company, and not, if applicable, in the Shareholder’s capacity as a director, officer or employee of any Acquired Company. Nothing herein shall in any way restrict a Shareholder that is a director or officer of the Company in the taking of any actions (or failure to act) in his or her capacity as a director or officer of the Company, or in the exercise of his or her fiduciary duties as a director or officer of the Company, or prevent or be construed to create any obligation on the part of any director or officer of the Company from taking (or refraining to taken) any action in his or her capacity as such director or officer, and no action taken (or note taken) in any such capacity as an officer or director of the Company shall be deemed to constitute a breach of this Agreement, provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein shall be understood to relieve any party to the Merger Agreement of any obligation under, or of any liability for breach of any provision of, the Merger Agreement.

 

5.17           Representations and Warranties. The representations and warranties contained in this Agreement and in any certificate or other writing delivered pursuant hereto shall not survive the Effective Time or the valid termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 5.2.

 

5.18           No Ownership Interest. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to vest in Parent or Merger Sub any direct or indirect ownership or incidence of ownership of or with respect to any Subject Shares. Except as provided in this Agreement, all rights, ownership and economic benefits relating to the Subject Shares shall remain vested in and belong to the Shareholder. Nothing in this Agreement will be interpreted as creating or forming a “group” with any other Person, for purposes of Rule 13d-5(b)(1) of the Exchange Act or any other similar provision of applicable Law.
