(d) The Company shall, prior to the Closing, take or cause to be taken, all actions (i) necessary to provide for and give effect to the transactions contemplated by this Section 2.3 and (ii) necessary to terminate the Company Option Plan effective as of the Closing. Additionally, the Company’s board of directors will take actions to give effect to the transactions contemplated by this Section 2.3 and will approve the notice to Optionholders contemplated by Section 6.6.

Section 2.8 Determination of Adjustment Amount

(a) Following the Closing Date, in accordance with this Section 2.8, the Estimated Cash Consideration shall be adjusted as follows: (A) reduced by the amount, if any, by which the Closing Cash Consideration is less than the Estimated Cash Consideration or (B) increased by the amount by which the Closing Cash Consideration is greater than Estimated Cash Consideration. The amount of such increase or decrease to the Estimated Cash Consideration as contemplated by this Section 2.8(a), and subject to the remainder of this Section 2.8, is referred to herein as the “Adjustment Amount.

(b) Within seventy five (75) days following the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to the Stockholders’ Committee a statement (the “Adjustment Statement”) setting forth its calculation of: (i) the actual Indebtedness as of the Closing (the “Closing Indebtedness”); (ii) the lesser of (A) the actual Cash as of the end of the day immediately preceding the Closing Date (the “Closing Cash Amount”) and (B) $2,500,000, (iii) the actual unpaid Transaction Expenses, (iv) the actual unpaid Change of Control Liabilities and (v) the Adjustment Amount. The Adjustment Statement shall set forth in line item detail the components of each of the foregoing items, and shall calculate the Closing Indebtedness in accordance with the Methodology. During the thirty (30) days immediately following Buyer’s delivery of the Adjustment Statement, the Stockholders’ Committee and the Stockholders’ Committee’s accountants shall have reasonable access to the working papers and books and records relating to the Adjustment Statement; provided, that any such access or furnishing of such information shall be conducted at the Stockholders’ Committee’s sole expense, during normal business hours under the reasonable supervision of Buyer and in such a manner as not to interfere in any material respect with the normal operations of Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including the Company) and upon reasonable advance notice; and provided, further, that the Stockholders’ Committee shall treat all such information as confidential consistent with the provisions hereof, and hereby waives any right to use such information for any purpose other than in connection with the determination of the Adjustment Amount pursuant to this Section 2.8, and hereby agrees to execute and deliver such customary waivers, limitations of liability and indemnification agreements as are requested

 

9


by Buyer’s advisors to provide access to such work papers and records. The Adjustment Statement shall become final and binding upon the parties on the earlier of: (A) the date that the Stockholders’ Committee provides written notice of its acceptance of Buyer-provided Adjustment Statement, or (B) the end of the thirtieth (30th) day following receipt thereof by the Stockholders’ Committee unless the Stockholders’ Committee gives written notice of its disagreement (a “Notice of Disagreement”) to Buyer on or prior to such date (provided, however, that the Stockholders’ Committee may so object to the Adjustment Statement based only on the existence of factual, legal or mathematical errors therein or on the failure of the Adjustment Statement to be prepared in accordance with the principles set forth herein and in accordance with the Methodology), or (C) resolution of the Notice of Disagreement per subsection (c) below (upon any such final and binding events under (A), (B) or (C) above, thereby a “Final Adjustment Statement” and the amount shown thereby, the “Final Adjustment Amount”). Any Notice of Disagreement shall (x) specify in reasonable detail, and on a line item by line item basis, the disputed items and the nature and amount of any disagreement so asserted (the “Disputed Items”), (y) an alternative amount for each such Disputed Item and (z) shall include a proposed calculation by the Stockholders’ Committee of the Closing Cash Amount, the Closing Indebtedness, unpaid Transaction Expenses, unpaid Change of Control Liabilities and the Adjustment Amount.

(c) If a timely Notice of Disagreement is received by Buyer, then the Adjustment Statement shall become final and binding upon the parties on the earlier of (i) the date Buyer and the Stockholders’ Committee resolve in writing any differences they have with respect to all Disputed Items and (ii) the date all remaining Disputed Items are finally resolved in writing by the Accounting Firm pursuant to Section 2.8(d). During the thirty (30) days immediately following the delivery of a Notice of Disagreement, Buyer and the Stockholders’ Committee shall consult in good faith to resolve in writing any remaining Disputed Items. During such consultation period, Buyer shall have full access to the books and records of the Stockholders’ Committee and the working papers of the Stockholders’ Committee’s accountants prepared in connection with the Stockholders’ Committee’s preparation of the Notice of Disagreement; provided, that any such access shall be conducted at Buyer’s sole expense, during normal business hours under the reasonable supervision of the Stockholders’ Committee.

(d) At the end of such thirty (30) day consultation period, if Buyer and the Stockholders’ Committee have not resolved all Disputed Items, Buyer and the Stockholders’ Committee shall submit any and all Disputed Items which remain unresolved to, upon mutual agreement of Buyer and the Stockholders’ Committee, an independent accounting firm experienced in auditing companies the size and nature of the Company as mutually selected by Buyer and the Stockholders’ Committee (the “Accounting Firm”). The Accounting Firm shall work to resolve such Disputed Items promptly and, in any event, within thirty (30) days from the date the dispute is submitted to the Accounting Firm. Any item relating to the Closing Cash Amount, the Closing Indebtedness, unpaid Transaction Expenses, unpaid Change of Control Liabilities and the Adjustment Amount that is not a Disputed Item specifically referred to the Accounting Firm pursuant to this Section 2.8(d) shall be deemed final and binding on the parties (as set forth in the Adjustment Statement or as otherwise agreed to in writing by the parties). The Accounting Firm shall finalize the Closing Cash Amount, the Closing Indebtedness, unpaid Transaction Expenses, unpaid Change of Control Liabilities and the Adjustment Amount by selecting with respect to each Disputed Item an amount between or equal to Buyer’s position as set forth in the Adjustment Statement or the Stockholders’ Committee’s position as set forth in the Notice of Disagreement. The Accounting Firm shall act as an arbitrator to determine the Closing Cash Amount, the Closing Indebtedness, unpaid Transaction Expenses, unpaid Change of Control Liabilities and the Adjustment Amount with respect to each Disputed Item submitted to the Accounting Firm, based solely on presentations by Buyer and the Stockholders’ Committee

 

10


(and not by independent review). The determination of the Closing Cash Amount, the Closing Indebtedness, unpaid Transaction Expenses, unpaid Change of Control Liabilities and the Adjustment Amount with respect to each Disputed Item by the Accounting Firm shall be binding on the parties and shall be non-appealable.

(e) All fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm in connection with this Section 2.8 shall be paid by the party against whom the majority of the dollar value of the Disputed Items so submitted was resolved, as finally determined by the Accounting Firm.

(f) Upon the achievement of a Final Adjustment Statement and concomitant Final Adjustment Amount, then the following shall occur:

(i) If the Final Adjustment Amount results in an increase to the Estimated Cash Consideration, then Buyer shall promptly (but in any event within seven (7) days thereof) make (or cause to be made) a payment to the Stockholders’ Committee for further payment to the Stockholders and Warrantholder, in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares, by wire transfer or delivery of other immediately available funds to the account designated by the Stockholders’ Committee an aggregate amount equal to such increase.

(ii) If the Final Adjustment Amount results in a decrease to the Estimated Cash Consideration (the difference, the “Shortfall Amount”), the Stockholders and the Warrantholder (or the Stockholders’ Committee on behalf of the Stockholders and the Warrantholder), in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares, shall promptly (but in any event within seven (7) days thereof) make (or cause to be made) a payment by wire transfer or delivery of other immediately available funds to the account designated by Buyer in such election of an aggregate amount equal to the Shortfall Amount.

Section 2.9 Withholding Rights. Buyer shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any payments pursuant to this Agreement to any Person such amounts as Buyer or the Company is required (even though the proposed recipient may have provided any affidavits or certificates incident thereto) to deduct and withhold with respect to any such payments under the Code or any provision of state, local, provincial or foreign Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and remitted to the applicable Governmental Authority, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to such Persons in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, any compensatory payments contemplated to be made pursuant to this Agreement shall be directed to the Company to be paid through its payroll to the appropriate Person (without interest and less any applicable withholding Taxes).

Section 2.10 Stockholders Committee; Expense Fund.

(a) Appointment. By virtue of the execution of this Agreement, the Stockholders irrevocably nominate, constitute and appoint Ron Antevy and Jonathan Antevy, acting jointly as the Stockholders’ Committee, as the agent and true and lawful attorney-in-fact of the Stockholders, with full power of substitution, to act in the name, place and stead of the Stockholders for the purposes set forth in this Section 2.10.

(b) Authority. The Stockholders grant to the Stockholders’ Committee full authority to (i) execute, deliver, acknowledge, certify and file on behalf of them (in their name or otherwise) any and all documents that the Stockholders’ Committee may, in their sole reasonable

discretion, determine to be necessary, desirable or appropriate, in such forms and containing such provisions as the Stockholders’ Committee may, in their sole discretion, determine to be appropriate, in performing their duties as contemplated by Section 2.10(a), (ii) receive all notices or other documents given or to be given to the Stockholders by Buyer or the Company pursuant to this Agreement and the Transaction Documents, (iii) receive and accept service of legal process in connection with any Proceeding against the Stockholders or the Company arising under this Agreement or any Transaction Documents, (iv) undertake, compromise, defend, settle, and deal in any way with any Proceeding hereunder on behalf of the Stockholders as a group or any Stockholder arising under this Agreement or any Transaction Document, (v) engage special counsel, accountants and other advisors and incur such other expenses in connection with any of the Transactions, whether before, at, or after the Closing, (vi) consent to the settlement of any disputes in connection with Section 2.8 and (vii) take such other action as the Stockholders’ Committee may deem appropriate, including: (A) agreeing on behalf of the Stockholders or any of them to any waiver, modification or amendment of this Agreement or any Transaction Document and executing and delivering an agreement of such waiver, modification or amendment and (B) all such other matters as the Stockholders’ Committee may deem necessary or appropriate to carry out the intents and purposes of this Agreement and the Transaction Documents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or in any other agreement executed in connection with the Transactions, Buyer shall be entitled to rely conclusively (without further evidence of any kind whatsoever) on any document executed or purported to be executed on behalf of any Stockholder by the Stockholders’ Committee, and on any other action taken or purported to be taken on behalf of any Stockholder by the Stockholders’ Committee, as fully binding upon such Stockholder.

(c) Power of Attorney. The Stockholders recognize and intend that the power of attorney granted in Section 2.10(a): (i) is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable; (ii) may be delegated by the Stockholders’ Committee (provided that such delegation is reasonably acceptable to Buyer); and (iii) shall survive the death or incapacity of any such Person.

(d) Replacement. If either of the Persons serving as the Stockholders’ Committee shall resign or otherwise be unable to fulfill their responsibilities hereunder, the Stockholders shall (by consent of those Persons entitled to receive at least a majority of the aggregate Closing Cash Consideration paid to all Stockholders), within thirty (30) days after such resignation or other inability, appoint a successor to such Person serving as the Stockholders’ Committee (who shall be reasonably satisfactory to Buyer) and immediately thereafter notify Buyer of the identity of such successor. Any such successor shall succeed the Person serving on the Stockholders’ Committee as a Person serving on the “Stockholders’ Committee” hereunder. In the event that there is only one Person serving as the Stockholders’ Committee at any time, then any action taken by the Stockholders’ Committee shall require the consent of (i) such Person or (ii) those Persons entitled to receive at least a majority of the aggregate Closing Cash Consideration paid to all Stockholders. If for any reason there is no Stockholders’ Committee at any time, all references herein to the Stockholders’ Committee shall be deemed to refer to the Stockholders.

(e) Exculpation. The Stockholders’ Committee shall not be liable to any Stockholder for any act done or omitted hereunder as Stockholders’ Committee while acting in good faith and in the exercise of reasonable judgment, and any act done or omitted pursuant to the advice of counsel shall be conclusive evidence of such good faith. The Stockholders shall jointly and severally indemnify the Stockholders’ Committee and hold them harmless against any loss, Liability or expense incurred without gross negligence or bad faith on the part of the Stockholders’ Committee and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of their duties hereunder.

 

12


(f) Expense Fund. Upon the Closing, Buyer will wire, to an account designated by the Stockholders’ Committee, the Expense Amount, which will be used to establish an expense fund (the “Expense Fund”) for the purposes of paying directly, or reimbursing the Stockholders’ Committee for, any out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Stockholders’ Committee arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of their duties hereunder or other third-party expenses or any portion of the Adjustment Amount. The Stockholders and the Warrantholder hereby acknowledge and agree that, if and to the extent any Taxes are payable on payments from the Expense Fund, such Taxes shall be paid from the Expense Fund. The Stockholders and the Warrantholder will not receive any interest or earnings on the Expense Fund and irrevocably transfer and assign to the Stockholders’ Committee any ownership right that they may otherwise have had in any such interest or earnings. The Stockholders’ Committee is not providing any investment supervision, recommendations or advice and will not be responsible or liable for any loss of principal of the Expense Fund other than as a result of their gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Stockholders’ Committee 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. Contemporaneous with or as soon as practicable following the termination or expiration of the Stockholders’ Committee’s obligations in connection with this Agreement, the Stockholders’ Committee will deliver the balance of the Expense Fund to the Stockholders and the Warrantholder in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares. For Tax purposes, the Expense Fund will be treated as having been received and voluntarily set aside by the Stockholders and the Warrantholder at the time of the Closing.

(g) Joint Action. Ron Antevy and Jonathan Antevy (or their successors) shall act jointly as the Stockholders’ Committee for all purposes hereunder, and any action taken by the Stockholders’ Committee shall require the unanimous approval of such Persons. In the event that such Persons are in disagreement as to any matter subject to the authority of the Stockholders’ Committee under this Agreement (including under this Section 2.10), they shall each be obligated to negotiate in good faith to resolve such disagreement, and if they are unable to promptly resolve such disagreement, they shall engage a mediator to facilitate such good faith negotiation and the resolution of any such disagreement.

Section 3.13 Taxes.

(a) The Company has timely filed (taking into account applicable extensions of time to file) all United States federal, state and local and all foreign income and other material Tax Returns that were required to be filed by it on or prior to the Closing Date. All such Tax Returns were prepared in compliance with all applicable Laws and correctly reflect in all material respects the facts regarding the income, business, assets, operations, activities, status and other matters of, or information regarding, the Company required to be shown thereon. No extension of time to file any such Tax Return which has not been filed as of the date of this Agreement has been requested from or granted by any Governmental Authority (other than automatic extensions available by statute).

The unpaid Taxes of the Company that are not yet due and payable and that are being contested in good faith do not materially exceed the reserve for Tax Liability (excluding any reserve for deferred Taxes established to reflect timing differences between book and Tax income) set forth or included on the Interim Balance Sheet, as adjusted for the passage of time through the Closing Date, in accordance with the past practices of the Company. The amount of unpaid Taxes that are being contested in good faith by the Company (as applicable), the Governmental Authority with whom these Taxes are being contested and the status of these Proceedings do not materially exceed the amounts set forth on Schedule 3.13(b).

(c) Except as set forth on Schedule 3.13, the Company has not been the subject of any audit, investigation, assessment, examination, suit or any similar Proceeding by any Governmental Authority with respect to any taxable periods in the past five (5) fiscal years or portions of periods ending on or before the Closing Date. No waiver of any statute of limitation with respect to the Taxes or Tax Returns of the Company has been given by or requested from the Company. No written claim has ever been made by any Governmental Authority in a jurisdiction where the Company does not file Tax Returns that the Company is or may be subject to taxation by that jurisdiction. There is no claim for Taxes being asserted against the Company that has resulted in a Lien against any asset or property of the Company other than Permitted Liens.

(d) The Company has (i) complied (and through Closing will comply) in all material respects with all applicable Law relating to the payment and withholding of Taxes (including withholding of Taxes pursuant to Sections 1441, 1442, 1445 and 1446 of the Code or any corresponding or similar provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law and the withholding of a non-resident shareholder’s Taxes under any state or local Tax Law), (ii) within the time and in the manner prescribed by applicable Tax Law, timely withheld from employee wages, consulting compensation or amounts allocable to non-resident shareholders and timely paid over to the

 

17

The Stockholders’ Committee shall provide draft copies of each Pass-Through Tax Return to Buyer no later than thirty (30) days prior to the date for filing such Pass-Through Tax Return, including applicable extensions.

Nothing in this Section 7.6 or any other provision of this Agreement, is intended to, or will be construed to, (a) confer upon any employee of the Company or any other Person other than the parties, in their respective capacities as Stockholders, to this Agreement any rights or remedies hereunder; (b) limit the right or ability of the Company, Buyer or any of Buyer’s Affiliates to terminate the employment of (or modify the terms and conditions of employment of) any employee of the Company, Buyer or any of Buyer’s Affiliates following the Closing, (c) establish or amend any Benefit Plan or any benefit plan, program, policy or arrangement of Buyer or any of Buyer’s Affiliates; or (d) limit the rights of the Company, Buyer or any of Buyer’s Affiliates to establish, amend or terminate any Benefit Plan or any other benefit plan, program, policy or arrangement, whether before or after the Closing.

ARTICLE IX

NO SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES; INDEMNIFICATION

Except as set forth below, the representations and warranties of the Company and the Stockholders contained in this Agreement, the Schedules (including any exhibit or annex to the Schedules) and the other Transaction Documents shall expire and be of no further force or effect as of the Effective Time, and only such covenants and agreements of the Company, the Stockholders and Buyer in this Agreement and the other agreements, certificates and documents contemplated by this Agreement that by their terms survive the Effective Time, shall survive the Effective Time.

Except as set forth below, if the Transactions are consummated, Buyer shall have no right to indemnification from or recourse against the Stockholders for any loss, Liability, claim, action, cause of action, cost, damage, deficiency, Tax, penalty, fine or expense (collectively, “Damages”) relating to or arising from (a) the breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement or any other agreement, certificate or document contemplated by this Agreement or (b) the failure of any Stockholder or the Company to perform any of their respective covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement or any other agreement, certificate or document contemplated by this Agreement that by their terms do not survive the Effective Time. Any Damages relating to the breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty of the Company or the Stockholders set forth in this Agreement shall be satisfied solely from amounts of any insurance payments actually paid to and received by Buyer pursuant to the R&W Insurance Policy in connection with the breach or events giving rise to such right to claim for Damages, which such mechanism shall constitute the sole remedy relating to such Damages. Buyer shall (and shall cause its Affiliates to) use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate all Damages upon becoming aware of any event or circumstance that could reasonably be expected to give rise to any Damages. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Article IX shall in any way inhibit Buyer from obtaining any remedies Buyer may have against any insurer under the R&W Insurance Policy providing coverage for any breach or inaccuracy of the representations and warranties in this Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) in no event shall the representations and warranties of the Company and the Stockholders contained in this Agreement, the Schedules (including any exhibit or annex to the Schedules) and other Transaction Documents expire in the event of, or shall Buyer be deemed to have waived, released or relinquished any of its rights to claims for or based on, Fraud, and (ii) from and after the Closing Date, the Securityholders, severally and not jointly based on each Securityholder’s Pro Rata Share, indemnify Buyer, the Company, and their respective directors, officers, stockholders, successors and assigns and hold them harmless from and against any and all Damages incurred by any of them to the extent caused by, arising out of or resulting from any Taxes owed by the Company with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period or the pre-Closing portion of any Straddle Period. For purposes of the preceding sentence, the pre-Closing portion of any Taxes attributable to a Straddle Period shall, (A) in the case of property or similar ad valorem Taxes, equal the amount of such Taxes for such entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days during the Straddle Period through the day preceding the Closing Date, and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the Straddle Period; and (B) with respect to any other Taxes, equal the amount which would be payable if the Straddle Period ended at the end of the day preceding the Closing Date.

No waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the waiving party.

Section 11.8 Counterparts.

Section 11.12 Attorney-Client Privilege; Continued Representation.

Buyer and the Company hereby (a) waive any claim they have or may have that Fenwick & West LLP has a conflict of interest or is otherwise prohibited from engaging in such representation and (b) agree that, in the event that a dispute arises after the Closing between Buyer and any of the Securityholders, the Stockholders’ Committee or any of their respective Affiliates, Fenwick & West LLP may represent the Securityholders, the Stockholders’ Committee or any of their respective Affiliates in such dispute even though the interests of such Person(s) may be directly adverse to Buyer or the Company and even though Fenwick & West LLP may have represented the Company in a matter substantially related to such dispute. Buyer and the Company also further agree that, as to all communications prior to Closing among Fenwick & West LLP and the Company, the Securityholders or their Affiliates and representatives, the Stockholders’ Committee or its Affiliates and representatives, that primarily relate to the negotiation of Transactions contemplated hereby, the attorney-client privilege and the expectation of client confidence belongs to the Securityholders and may be controlled by the Securityholders and shall not pass to or be claimed by Buyer or the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a dispute arises between Buyer, the Company and a third party other than a party to this Agreement after the Closing, the Company may assert the attorney-client privilege to prevent disclosure of confidential communications by Fenwick & West LLP to such third party; provided, however, that the Company may not waive such privilege without the prior written consent of the Stockholders’ Committee (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

 

54


Section 11.13 Amendments. This Agreement shall not be modified or amended except pursuant to an instrument in writing executed and delivered on behalf of Buyer and the Stockholders’ Committee (it being acknowledged and agreed that, the Company and the Stockholders’ Committee may amend this Agreement and waive matters on behalf of the Stockholders, all as contemplated by Section 2.10).

Section 11.14 Specific Performance. The parties agree that immediate, extensive and irreparable damage would occur for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or are otherwise breached. Accordingly, the parties agree that, if for any reason any party shall have failed to perform its obligations under this Agreement or otherwise breached this Agreement, then the party seeking to enforce this Agreement against such nonperforming party under this Agreement shall be entitled to specific performance and the issuance of immediate injunctive relief and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, without the necessity or proving inadequacy of money damages as a remedy, and the parties further agree to waive any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with the obtaining of any such injunctive or other equitable relief, this being in addition to and not in limitation of any other remedy to which they are entitled at Law or in equity.
