Each holder of shares of Company Capital Stock that have been converted into the right to receive the Per Share Cash-Out Consideration shall be entitled to receive the Per Share Cash-Out Consideration upon: (i) surrender to the Exchange Agent of a Certificate; or (ii) receipt of an “agent’s message” by the Parent (or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as Exchange Agent may reasonably request) in the case of Book Entry Shares, in each case, together with a duly completed and validly executed letter of transmittal and such other documents as my be reasonably be requested by Parent.

Upon payment of the Exchange Consideration or right to Earn-Out Shares pursuant to the provisions of this Article II, each Note so surrendered or transferred, as the case may be, shall immediately be cancelled.

(c) Payments to Non-Registered Holders. If any portion of the Per Share Cash-Out Consideration is to be paid to a Person or other than the Person in whose name the surrendered Certificate or the transferred Book Entry Share, as applicable, is registered, or as the case may be, if any portion of the Exchange Consideration or Earn-Out Shares is to be paid to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered and cancelled Note or affidavit of loss of such Note, as applicable, is registered, it shall be a condition to such payment that: (i) such Certificate, or such cancelled Note or affidavit of loss of such Note shall be properly endorsed or shall otherwise be in proper form for transfer, or such Book Entry Shares shall be property transferred; and (ii) the Person requesting such payment shall pay to the Exchange Agent any transfer or other Tax required as a result of such payment to a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate, Book Entry Share, or the cancelled Note or affidavit of loss of such Note, as applicable, or establish to the reasonable satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such Tax has been paid or is not payable.

(d) Full Satisfaction.

(e) Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains unclaimed by the Noteholders or holders of shares of Company Capital Stock six (6) months after the Effective Time shall be returned to Parent, upon demand, and any such holder of Company Capital Stock who has not exchanged shares of Company Capital Stock for the Per Share Cash-Out Consideration or Noteholder who has not exchanged Notes for the Exchange Consideration in accordance with this Section 2.02 prior to that time shall thereafter look only to Parent (subject to abandoned property, escheat, or other similar Laws), as general creditors thereof, for payment of the Exchange Consideration or the Per Share Cash-Out Consideration, as the case may be, without any interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent shall not be liable to any holder of shares of Company Capital Stock or Noteholder for any amounts paid to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat, or similar Laws.

Section 2.04 Withholding Rights. Each of the Exchange Agent, Parent, Merger Sub, and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable to any Person pursuant to this Article II such amounts as may be required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under any Tax Laws. To the extent that amounts are so deducted and withheld by the Exchange Agent, Parent, Merger Sub, or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which the Exchange Agent, Parent, Merger Sub, or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, made such deduction and withholding.

Section 8.08 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including all exhibits, annexes, and schedules referred to herein), the Company Disclosure Schedule, the Parent Disclosure Schedule, and the Confidentiality Agreement constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersede all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties to this Agreement with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement. In the event of any inconsistency between the statements in the body of this Agreement, the Confidentiality Agreement, the Parent Disclosure Schedule, and the Company Disclosure Schedule (other than an exception expressly set forth as such in the Parent Disclosure Schedule or Company Disclosure Schedule), the statements in the body of this Agreement will control.

Section 8.09 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is for the sole benefit of the parties hereto and their permitted assigns and respective successors and nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person or entity any legal or equitable right, benefit, or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.

Section 8.10 Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Agreement or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, 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 in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

Section 8.11 Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Neither Parent or Merger Sub, on the one hand, nor the Company on the other hand, may assign its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other party (Parent in the case of Parent and Merger Sub). No assignment shall relieve the assigning party of any of its obligations hereunder.

Section 8.12 Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, any and all remedies expressly conferred upon a party to this Agreement will be cumulative with, and not exclusive of, any other remedy contained in this Agreement, at Law, or in equity. The exercise by a party to this Agreement of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise by it of any other remedy.

Section 8.13 Specific Performance.

(a) The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur if any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with the terms hereof and that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement or to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions hereof in any federal court located in the State of Delaware or any Delaware state court, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at Law or in equity.

(b) Each party further agrees that: (i) no such party will oppose the granting of an injunction or specific performance as provided herein on the basis that the other party has an adequate remedy at law or that an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or equity; (ii) no such party will oppose the specific performance of the terms and provisions of this Agreement; and (iii) no other party or any other Person shall be required to obtain, furnish, or post any bond or similar instrument in connection with or as a condition to obtaining any remedy referred to in this Section 8.13, and each party irrevocably waives any right it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing, or posting of any such bond or similar instrument.

Section 8.14 Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which will be one and the same agreement. This Agreement will become effective when each party to this Agreement will have received counterparts signed by all of the other parties.

Section 8.15 Noteholder Representative. By virtue of the execution and delivery of the Release, “Noteholder Representative” means Scilla Andreen, not as an officer, manager or member of the Company, but as an individual representing the Noteholder pursuant to a power of attorney granted by the Noteholder to the Noteholder Representative.
