In lieu of any fractional shares, Acquiror shall pay each Pre-Closing Holder of Capital Stock (including any Company Warrants that convert into Capital Stock pursuant to Section 3.3(a)) entitled to any portion of Acquiror Common Stock, and such holder shall be entitled to receive, an amount in cash, rounded up to the nearest cent, equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) the fractional share interest to which such holder (after taking into account all Acquiror Common Shares held at the First Effective Time by such holder) would otherwise be entitled by (ii) the closing price on the NASDAQ Capital Market (“NASDAQ”) for an Acquiror Common Share on the last trading day immediately preceding the First Effective Time.

(g)          Adjustment to Merger Consideration. The Merger Consideration shall be adjusted appropriately to reflect the effect of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend (including any dividend or other distribution of securities convertible into Acquiror Common Shares), reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or other like change with respect to the number of Acquiror Common Shares outstanding after the date hereof and prior to the First Effective Time so as to provide the holders of shares of the Company’s Capital Stock (other than Excluded Shares) with the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event and as so adjusted shall, from and after the date of such event, be the Merger Consideration.

Section 3.2           Treatment of Options.

(a)          Prior to the First Effective Time, the Company shall take all necessary and appropriate actions so that, as of the First Effective Time, each Option that is then outstanding shall be converted into an option relating to shares of Acquiror Common Shares upon the same terms and conditions as are in effect with respect to such option immediately prior to the First Effective Time (each, a “Acquiror Option”) except that (a) each such Acquiror Option shall relate to that whole number of Acquiror Common Shares (rounded down to the nearest whole share) equal to the number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock subject to such Option multiplied by the Merger Consideration Per Fully Diluted Share and (b) the exercise price per share for each such Acquiror Option shall be equal to the exercise price per share of such Option in effect immediately prior to the First Effective Time divided by the Merger Consideration Per Fully Diluted Share(the exercise price per share, as so determined, being rounded up to the nearest full cent).

(b)          Prior to the First Effective Time, the Company shall take commercially reasonable actions so that any Option which is held by a former employee or former service provider to the Company or any Affiliate is exercised or cancelled not later than immediately prior to the First Effective Time and, to the extent that any such option is not so exercised or cancelled, such Option shall be converted automatically into the right to receive a cash payment equal to the product of (a) the excess of $10.00 over the per-share exercise of the options and (b) the number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock subject to the vested portion of the Option (such amount to be paid as soon as practicable following the First Effective Time, less applicable withholdings).

22

Section 3.3           Treatment of Company Warrants.

(a)          Immediately prior to the First Effective Time, all warrants to purchase shares of Company Common Stock (the “Company Warrants”) as of immediately preceding the First Effective Time, shall, if such Company Warrants have a per share exercise price less than the value of the Merger Consideration Per Fully Diluted Share (as calculated by multiplying the number of Acquiror Common Shares comprising the Merger Consideration Per Fully Diluted Share by $10.00 (such result, the “Per-Share Dollar Value”)) (any such Company Warrant being referred to herein as “In The Money”), cease to represent a right to acquire shares of the Company’s Capital Stock and shall be converted, immediately prior to the First Effective Time, into shares of the applicable class of the Company’s Capital Stock (as prescribed in the relevant underlying warrant agreement) according to a Net Issue Exercise, in all cases pursuant to a consent and conversion agreement, as agreed in good faith between the parties hereto and the holder of any such Company Warrant (each a “Conversion Agreement”).

(b)          Immediately prior to the First Effective Time, all agreements granting such Company Warrants (each a “Company Warrant Agreement”), shall be terminated. In addition, and pursuant to each Company Warrant Agreement, all Company Warrants with any exercise price in equal to or greater than the Per-Share Dollar Value, shall cease to represent a right to acquire shares of Company Common Stock and shall be cancelled, and each Company Warrant Agreement covering such Company Warrants shall be terminated and each holder of such Company Warrants shall not have a right to acquire shares of the Company’s Capital Stock or Acquiror Common Shares.

(c)          Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Company Warrant listed on Section 3.3(c) of the Company Disclosure Letter (each, a “Specified Warrant”) shall be treated according this Section 3.3(c), and not pursuant to the terms of subsections (a) or (b) above. As of the First Effective Time, in accordance with the terms of the Specified Warrant Agreement, (i) each Specified Warrant that is then-outstanding shall be surrendered by the holder thereof to the Company, and the Company shall cancel such Specified Warrants, and (ii) as of the Closing Acquiror shall issue warrants relating to shares of Acquiror Common Shares upon the terms and subject to the conditions as are set forth in the Specified Warrant Agreement.

Section 3.4           Payment and Exchange of Certificates.

(a)          Payment of Merger Consideration and other Transaction-Related Payments.

(i)          Deposit with Exchange Agent. Immediately prior to the First Effective Time, Acquiror shall deposit with an exchange agent (the “Exchange Agent”) selected by the Company and reasonably acceptable to Acquiror, (1) the number of shares of Acquiror Common Stock equal to the Merger Consideration due to holders of Capital Stock (including Company Warrants other than Specified Warrants) minus (2) the Indemnification Escrow Amount.

23

(ii)         Deposit with Escrow Agent. Immediately prior to the First Effective Time, Acquiror shall deposit with the Escrow Agent the Indemnification Escrow Amount.

(b)          After the First Effective Time, (i) each Pre-Closing Holder of an outstanding certificate or certificates for Capital Stock (other than Company Warrants which have been converted to Capital Stock pursuant to Section 3.3(a), and Excluded Shares) (collectively, the “Certificates”), upon surrender of such Certificates to the Exchange Agent, (ii) and each holder of Company Warrants, upon delivery of a Conversion Agreement or a Specified Conversion Agreement to the Exchange Agent, shall be entitled to receive from the Exchange Agent in exchange therefor (subject to the provisions of Section 3.7) such portion of the Merger Consideration into which such holder’s Capital Stock (other than Excluded Shares) or Company Warrants shall have been converted as a result of the First Merger; provided, however, that a portion of the Merger Consideration that is payable to each Escrow Stockholders that is equal to the product of the Indemnification Escrow Amount multiplied by such holder’s Applicable Percentage shall be held in escrow in accordance with Section 3.4(a)(ii) and the Escrow Agreement. Pending such surrender and exchange of a Pre-Closing Holder’s Certificate(s), a holder’s Certificate(s) shall be deemed for all purposes to evidence such holder’s right to receive the portion of the Merger Consideration into which such shares of Capital Stock (other than Excluded Shares) shall have been converted by the First Merger.

Section 3.5           Estimated Closing Amounts. Not less than two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date and in no event more than ten (10) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to Acquiror a written statement signed by the Chief Financial Officer of the Company setting forth (a) its good faith estimate of (i) Indebtedness of the Company (“Estimated Closing Date Indebtedness”), (ii) Cash and Cash Equivalents of the Company (“Estimated Closing Date Cash”) and (iii) unpaid Transaction Expenses (“Estimated Closing Date Unpaid Transaction Expenses”), in each case, calculated as of the close of business on the Closing Date without giving effect to the consummation of the First Merger or any financing transactions in connection therewith.

Section 3.6           Final Calculation of Closing Date Indebtedness, Closing Date Cash and Closing Date Unpaid Transaction Expenses.

(a)          As soon as reasonably practicable following the Closing Date, and in any event within sixty (60) calendar days thereof, the GPIAC-Designated Directors (or appointed representatives thereof) shall prepare (and Acquiror shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and Affiliates to, assist the GPIAC-Designated Directors and their representatives in preparing, as required) and deliver to the Holder Representative (i) a calculation of the aggregate amount of all Indebtedness of the Company (“Closing Date Indebtedness”), (ii) a calculation of Cash and Cash Equivalents of the Company (“Closing Date Cash”) and (iii) a calculation of unpaid and accrued Transaction Expenses (“Closing Date Unpaid Transaction Expenses”), in each case, calculated as of the close of business on the Closing Date without giving effect to the consummation of the Mergers or any financing transactions in connection therewith or, after the First Effective Time, any other action or omission by Acquiror, the First-Step Surviving Corporation, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Subsidiaries that is not in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice (such delivered statement, the “Acquiror Closing Calculation Statement”). Following the Closing, Acquiror shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and Affiliates to, provide the GPIAC-Designated Directors and the Holder Representative and their respective representatives access to the records, properties, personnel and (subject to the execution of customary work paper access letters if requested) auditors of the Company and its Subsidiaries relating to the preparation of the Company’s Financial Statements and calculations of Estimated Closing Date Indebtedness, Estimated Closing Date Cash and Estimated Closing Date Unpaid Transaction Expenses and shall cause the personnel of the Company and its Subsidiaries to reasonably cooperate with the GPIAC-Designated Directors, the Holder Representative and their respective representatives in connection with their review of the Company’s Indebtedness, Cash and Cash Equivalents and unpaid Transaction Expenses, in each case, calculated as of the close of business on the Closing Date.

24

(b)          If the Holder Representative shall disagree with the calculation of Closing Date Indebtedness, Closing Date Cash and/or Closing Date Unpaid Transaction Expenses, it shall notify the GPIAC-Designated Directors of such disagreement in writing, setting forth in reasonable detail the particulars of such disagreement, within forty-five (45) days after its receipt of the Acquiror Closing Calculation Statement. In the event that the Holder Representative does not provide such a notice of disagreement within such forty-five (45) day period, the Holder Representative shall be deemed to have accepted the calculation of Closing Date Indebtedness, Closing Date Cash and Closing Date Unpaid Transaction Expenses delivered by the GPIAC-Designated Directors, which shall be final, binding and conclusive for all purposes hereunder. In the event any such notice of disagreement is timely provided, the GPIAC-Designated Directors and the Holder Representative shall use reasonable best efforts for a period of thirty (30) days (or such longer period as they may mutually agree) to resolve any such disagreements specified in such notice. If, at the end of such period, they are unable to resolve such disagreements, then Ernst & Young (or such independent accounting or financial consulting firm of recognized national standing as may be mutually selected by the GPIAC-Designated Directors and the Holder Representative) (the “Auditor”) shall resolve any remaining disagreements. Each of the GPIAC-Designated Directors and the Holder Representative shall promptly provide their assertions regarding such disagreements in writing to the Auditor and to each other. The Auditor shall be instructed to render its determination with respect to such disagreements as soon as reasonably possible (which the parties hereto agree should not be later than ninety (90) days following the day on which any such disagreements are referred to the Auditor). The Auditor shall base its determination solely on (i) the written submissions of the parties and shall not conduct an independent investigation and (ii) the extent (if any) to which the Closing Date Indebtedness, Closing Date Cash and/or Closing Date Unpaid Transaction Expenses require adjustment (only with respect to the remaining disagreements submitted to the Auditor) in order to be determined in accordance with Section 3.6(a) (including the definitions of the defined terms used in Section 3.6(a)). The determination of the Auditor shall be final, conclusive and binding on the parties. The date on which Closing Date Indebtedness, Closing Date Cash and Closing Date Unpaid Transaction Expenses are finally determined in accordance with this Section 3.6(b) is hereinafter referred to as the “Determination Date.” All fees and expenses of the Auditor relating to the work, if any, to be performed by the Auditor hereunder shall be borne by Acquiror.

25

(c)          If, on the Determination Date, (i) Estimated Closing Date Indebtedness, minus Closing Date Indebtedness (as finally determined in accordance with Section 3.6(b)), plus (ii) Closing Date Cash (as finally determined in accordance with Section 3.6(b)), minus Estimated Closing Date Cash, plus (iii) Estimated Closing Date Unpaid Transaction Expenses, minus Closing Date Unpaid Transaction Expenses (as finally determined in accordance with Section 3.6(b)) is a negative number, then the GPIAC Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to indemnification in respect of the absolute value of such negative number (the “Deficit Amount”) in accordance with Article XII.

Section 3.7              Exchange Agent. Promptly following the date that is one year after the First Effective Time, Acquiror shall instruct the Exchange Agent to deliver to Acquiror all cash, Certificates and other documents in its possession relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and the Exchange Agent’s duties shall terminate. Thereafter, each Pre-Closing Holder of a Certificate (in respect of shares of Capital Stock other than Excluded Shares) who has not delivered a Certificate may surrender such Certificate, and each former holder of Company Warrants who has not delivered a Conversion Agreement or a Specified Conversion Agreement may deliver such Conversion Agreement or Specified Conversion Agreement, to Acquiror and (subject to applicable abandoned property, escheat and similar Laws) receive in consideration therefor, and Acquiror shall promptly deliver, the portion of the Merger Consideration deliverable in respect thereof as determined in accordance with this Article III without any interest thereon. None of Acquiror, Merger Sub, the Company, the First-Step Surviving Corporation, the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent shall be liable to any Person in respect of any Merger Consideration delivered to a public official pursuant to and in accordance with any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Laws. If any Certificate shall not have been surrendered immediately prior to such date on which any amounts payable pursuant to this Article III would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Authority, any such amounts shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of the Surviving Corporation, free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

Section 3.8               Lost Certificate. In the event any Certificate has been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if reasonably required by Acquiror or the Exchange Agent, the posting by such Person of a bond, in such customary amount as Acquiror or the Exchange Agent may direct, as indemnity against any claim made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Exchange Agent shall issue, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, the Merger Consideration deliverable in respect thereof as determined in accordance with this Article III.

Section 3.9              Withholding. Notwithstanding any other provision to this Agreement, Acquiror, the Company, the Exchange Agent and the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the cash otherwise deliverable under this Agreement, and from any other consideration otherwise paid or delivered in connection with the transactions contemplated in this Agreement, to any Person such amounts that Acquiror, the Company, the Exchange Agent and the Escrow Agent are required to deduct and withhold with respect to any such deliveries and payments under the Code or any provision of Law. To the extent that amounts are so deducted and withheld and duly deposited with the appropriate Governmental Authority by Acquiror, the Company, the Exchange Agent or the Escrow Agent, such deducted and withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

26

Section 3.10             Dissenting Shares. If, pursuant to the terms of NRS 92A.300 through 92A.500, holders of Capital Stock are entitled to dissenter’s rights, then notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, shares of Capital Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the First Effective Time that are held by any holder who has not voted such Capital Stock in favor of the First Merger or consented thereto in writing and who shall have properly demanded and perfected dissenter’s rights under NRS 92A.300 through 92A.500, inclusive (“Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into the right to receive the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration as determined pursuant to Section 3.1(e), but instead shall be entitled to receive such payment from the Surviving Corporation with respect to such Dissenting Shares as shall be determined pursuant to the NRS; provided, however, that if such holder shall have failed to perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn or otherwise lost such holder’s right to dissent and demand payment of fair value under the NRS, each such share of Capital Stock held by such holder shall thereupon be deemed to have been converted into, as of the First Effective Time, the right to receive, without any interest thereon, the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration as determined pursuant to Section 3.1(e), and each such share of Capital Stock shall no longer be a Dissenting Share. The Company shall give prompt notice to Acquiror of any written demands received by the Company for payment of the fair value (as defined in NRS 92A.320) in respect of any shares of Capital Stock and attempted withdrawals of such demands and any other instruments served pursuant to NRS 92A.440 and received by the Company, and Acquiror shall have the right to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Acquiror, voluntarily make or agree to make any payment with respect to any demands for appraisals of shares of Capital Stock, offer to settle or settle any demands or approve any withdrawal of any such demands.

Section 3.11            Closing of Transfer Books. At the First Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed and there shall be no further registration of transfers of Capital Stock thereafter on the records of the Company.

Article XI

HOLDER REPRESENTATIVE; GPIAC-DESIGNATED DIRECTORS

Section 11.1          Holder Representative.

(a)          Designation of Holder Representative. The parties have agreed that it is desirable to designate a representative to act on behalf of Pre-Closing Holders as specified herein (the “Holder Representative”). The Company and each Pre-Closing Holder hereby appoints Robin Murray as the representative, agent and attorney-in-fact of the Pre-Closing Holders with full powers of substitution to act in the name, place and stead of the Pre-Closing Holders with respect to the performance on behalf of the Pre-Closing Holders under the terms and provisions of this Agreement and the related agreements, as the same may be from time to time amended, and to do or refrain from doing all such further acts and things, and to execute all such documents on behalf of the Pre-Closing Holders as the Holder Representative deems necessary or appropriate without inquiry of and without additional approval from the Pre-Closing Holders in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the related agreements, including those authorities identified in subsection (c) below. This grant of authority (including the appointment of agency and this power of attorney) (i) shall be deemed to be facts ascertainable outside of this Agreement and shall be binding on the Pre-Closing Holders, (ii) is coupled with an interest and will be irrevocable and will not be terminated by any Pre-Closing Holder or by operation of Law, whether by the death, incompetence, bankruptcy, liquidation or incapacity of any Pre-Closing Holder or the occurrence of any other event, and any action taken by Holder Representative will be as valid as if such death, incompetence, bankruptcy, liquidation, incapacity or other event had not occurred, regardless of whether or not any Pre-Closing Holder or Holder Representative will have received any notice thereof and shall be binding on any successor thereto and (iii) shall survive the delivery of an assignment by any Escrow Stockholder of the whole or fraction of his, her or its interest in the Indemnification Escrow Shares.

72

(b)          Replacement of Holder Representative. The Holder Representative may resign at any time, and the Holder Representative may be removed by the vote of Escrow Stockholders who collectively own more than fifty percent (50%) of the Indemnification Escrow Shares (the “Majority Holders”). In the event that a Holder Representative resigns or is removed in accordance herewith, a new Holder Representative shall be appointed by a vote of the Majority Holders, such appointment to become effective upon the written acceptance thereof by the new Holder Representative.

(c)          Authority and Rights of the Holder Representative; Limitations on Liability. The Holder Representative shall have such powers and authority as are granted in this Section 11.1; provided, however, that the Holder Representative shall have no obligation to act on behalf of the Pre-Closing Holders, except as expressly provided herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Holder Representative shall have full power, authority and discretion to, for and on behalf of the Pre-Closing Holders (and, as applicable, the Escrow Stockholders):

(i)          from and after the Closing, negotiate and enter into amendments to this Agreement and the other related agreements;

(ii)         agree to, dispute, negotiate, compromise, settle and take other actions as may be necessary or desirable in respect of any matters contemplated by this Agreement or the other related agreements, including in connection with final calculation and determination of Closing Date Indebtedness, Closing Date Cash and Closing Date Unpaid Transaction Expenses, as contemplated in Section 3.6;

(iii)        authorize, administer or object to the release and disbursement of the Indemnification Escrow Shares pursuant to Section 12; provided, however, the Holder Representative is not acting as a withholding agent or in any similar capacity in connection with the Indemnification Escrow Shares and is not responsible for any Tax reporting or withholding with respect thereto;

(iv)        to deduct and/or hold back any funds that may be payable to any Pre-Closing Holder pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or the other related agreements in order to pay any amount that may be payable by such Pre-Closing Holder to the Holder Representative under the terms of this Section 11.1;

73

(v)         to give and receive all notices, communications and to receive and accept service of legal process in connection with any action, suit or proceeding arising under this Agreement or the other related agreements;

(vi)        to act for the Pre-Closing Holders with respect to all indemnification matters referred to in this Agreement or the other related agreements, including the right to negotiate and compromise on behalf of the Pre-Closing Holders any indemnification claim made by or against the Pre-Closing Holders;

(vii)       to disburse funds or Indemnification Escrow Shares (to the extent such Indemnification Escrow Shares are released to the Holder Representative pursuant to the terms of clause (xi) below) to third parties for expenses and liabilities;

(viii)      to engage, employ and obtain the advice of legal counsel, accountants and other professional advisors and rely on their advice and counsel, and to incur and pay fees and expenses of such advisors on behalf of the Pre-Closing Holders, in each case following reasonable prior consultation with the Escrow Stockholders, to the extent practicable;

(ix)         to take or refrain from taking all actions necessary or appropriate on behalf of the Pre-Closing Holders in the sole judgment of Holder Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing or required or permitted by the terms of this Agreement or the other related agreements; and

(x)          to do each and every act and exercise any and all rights which such Pre-Closing Holder, or any or all of the Pre-Closing Holders collectively, are permitted or required to do or exercise under this Agreement or any related agreement.

74

(xi)         The Holder Representative shall have no liability to Acquiror, the Company, any Pre-Closing Holder or any other holder of Common Stock or Options, with respect to actions taken or omitted to be taken in his capacity as the Holder Representative (except for those arising out of the Holder Representative’s gross negligence or willful misconduct). The Escrow Stockholders shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Holder Representative from and against any loss, liability, damage, claim, costs, fees or expenses (including the fees and expenses of counsel and experts and their staffs and all expense of document location, duplication and shipment), and shall advance and reimburse costs, fees and expenses, in each case arising out of or in connection with the performance of the Holder Representative of his duties in accordance with their Applicable Percentage (except for those arising out of the Holder Representative’s gross negligence or willful misconduct). A decision, act, consent or instruction of the Holder Representative shall constitute a decision of all Pre-Closing Holders and shall be final, binding and conclusive upon each such Pre-Closing Holder. The Holder Representative shall at all times be entitled to rely on any directions, acts, consents, waivers or instructions received from the Escrow Stockholders (acting unanimously) and shall act in accordance with such instructions. In the event that the Holder Representative does not receive unanimous direction from the Escrow Stockholders with respect to a given contemplated action, he shall have no obligation to take any such action or any liability with respect to the failure to take such action. If not paid directly to Holder Representative by the Escrow Stockholders, any such amounts may be recovered by Holder Representative from the Indemnification Escrow Shares at such time as remaining shares would otherwise be released to the Escrow Stockholders pursuant to Section 12.9; provided, that while this section allows Holder Representative to be paid from the aforementioned source of shares, this does not relieve the Escrow Stockholders from their obligation to promptly pay such amounts as they are suffered or incurred, nor does it prevent the Holder Representative from seeking any remedies available to him at law or otherwise. In no event will the Holder Representative be required (absent his specific agreement to do so, in his sole discretion) to incur costs, expenses or fees or advance its own funds on behalf of the Escrow Stockholders or the Pre-Closing Holders, or in any other manner in connection with the performance of his duties as the Holder Representative. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any restrictions or limitations on liability or indemnity set forth elsewhere in this Agreement are not intended to be applicable to the indemnities provided to the Holder Representative under this section. The foregoing indemnities will survive the Closing, the resignation or removal of the Holder Representative or the termination of this Agreement.

Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, the Holder Representative shall not have authority to settle any claim in excess of the Indemnification Escrow Shares without the prior written consent of each Pre-Closing Holder responsible for the payment of any amount in excess of the Indemnification Escrow Shares.

Section 11.2          GPIAC-Designated Directors.

(a)          Designation the GPIAC Designated Directors. Prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, the board of directors of Acquiror shall designate two individuals (the “GPIAC Designated Directors”) to serve as representatives of Acquiror from and after the First Effective Time and to act on behalf of Acquiror to take all necessary actions and make all decisions and direct all actions of Acquiror related to its rights and obligations (and the rights of the Acquiror Pre-Closing Holders and the GPIAC Indemnified Parties) hereunder and pursuant to the Escrow Agreement on behalf of Acquiror. In the event of a GPIAC Designated Director’s death, resignation, removal or refusal to serve, then, if prior to the First Effective Time, the board of directors of Acquiror or, if following the First Effective Time, the Sponsor, shall designate another individual as a replacement for such GPIAC Designated Director.

(b)          Authority and Rights of the GPIAC Designated Directors. Each of the GPIAC Designated Directors shall have such powers and authority as are necessary to carry out the functions assigned to it under this Agreement; provided, however, that the GPIAC Designated Directors shall have no obligation to act on behalf of the Acquiror Pre-Closing Holders, except as expressly provided herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the GPIAC Designated Directors shall have full power, authority and discretion, for and on behalf of the Acquiror Pre-Closing Holders (and as applicable to the extent provided in this Agreement, on behalf of Acquiror), to (i) after the Closing, negotiate and enter into amendments to this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, (ii) dispute, negotiate, settle and take other actions as may be required in connection with final calculation and determination of Closing Date Indebtedness, Closing Date Cash and Closing Date Unpaid Transaction Expenses, as contemplated in Section 3.6, and (iii) dispute, negotiate, settle and take other actions as may be required in connection with Article XII, including in respect of any Specified Co-Founder Fraud Claims and Specified Pre-Closing Holder Fraud Claims and to administer the release and cancellation of the Indemnification Escrow Shares or other disbursement pursuant to Section 14.4 and Section 12.8. None of the GPIAC Designated Directors shall have any liability to Acquiror, the Company or any holder of Acquiror Common Shares or Acquiror Preferred Shares or warrants to purchase Acquiror Common Shares or Acquiror Preferred Shares, with respect to actions taken or omitted to be taken in his or her capacity as a GPIAC Designated Director as designated hereunder (except for those arising out of such GPIAC Designated Director’s gross negligence or willful misconduct), but without effect on such GPIAC Designated Director’s duties to Acquiror and its shareholders in his or her capacity as a member of the board of directors of Acquiror in matters unrelated to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

Article XII

INDEMNIFICATION

Section 12.1         Survival of Representations, Warranties and Covenants. Each representation warranty, covenant and obligation contained herein and any certificate related to any such representation, warranty, covenant or obligation will survive the Closing and continue in full force and effect for one (1) year after the Closing Date (the “Survival Expiration Date”); provided, further, that any covenant contained in this Agreement that, by its terms, provides for performance following the Closing Date shall survive until such covenant is performed. No Indemnification Claim for breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in, or otherwise pursuant to, this Agreement (other than any covenant that provides for performance following the Closing) may be asserted pursuant to this Agreement unless (i) on or before the Survival Expiration Date, such claim is asserted by proper written notice in accordance with this Article XII, specifying, in reasonable detail, the basis of the claim, and (ii) such claim is made in respect of Damages specified, in reasonable detail, and incurred prior to the Survival Expiration Date, or, to the extent arising out of a third party claim (including any claim by any Governmental Authority) asserted in writing prior to the Survival Expiration Date, such claim is made in respect of a reasonably estimated amount of Damages reasonably expected to arise in connection with such claim.

Section 12.2          Indemnification.

(a)          Subject to Section 12.4, from and after the First Effective Time and until and through the Survival Expiration Date, holders of Acquiror Common Shares immediately before the First Effective Time (collectively, the “Acquiror Pre-Closing Holders” or the “GPIAC Indemnified Parties”) shall be entitled to indemnification from the Indemnification Escrow Shares for any and all Damages to the extent arising from:

76

(i)          any breach of any representation or warranty the Company has made in this Agreement or in the certificate to be delivered pursuant to Section 9.2(c) (a “Company Warranty Breach”) (provided that any qualification or exception relating to materiality, material adverse effect or “Company Material Adverse Effect” shall be disregarded for purposes of determining the amount of any Damages and for purposes of determining whether such representation or warranty has been breached);

(ii)         any breach by the Company or its Subsidiaries of any covenant or agreement of the Company or its Subsidiaries in this Agreement;

(iii)        any Deficit Amount, as finally determined in accordance with Section 3.6;

(iv)        any Pre-Closing Holder’s exercise of dissenters’ rights; and

(v)         any Legal Proceeding by any Pre-Closing Holder against Acquiror or the Company, or their respective officers and directors, in each case, arising out of or related to this Agreement or the Mergers.

(b)          Subject to Section 12.4, from and after the First Effective Time and until and through the Survival Expiration Date, Acquiror shall indemnify, defend and hold the Holder Representative and the Pre-Closing Holders (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) harmless for any and all Damages to the extent arising from (i) any breach of any representation or warranty Acquiror or Merger Sub has made in this Agreement or in the certificate to be delivered pursuant to Section 9.3(c) (an “Acquiror Warranty Breach”) (provided that any qualification or exception relating to materiality, material adverse effect or Acquiror Material Adverse Effect shall be disregarded solely for purposes of determining the amount of any Damages, but not for purposes of determining whether such representation or warranty has been breached) or (ii) any breach by Acquiror or Merger Sub of any covenant or agreement of Acquiror or Merger Sub in this Agreement.

(c)          The amount of indemnification to which an Indemnified Party shall be entitled under this Article XII shall be determined: (i) by the written agreement between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnitor; (ii) with respect to any Deficit Amount, in the manner set forth in Section 12.3(e); (iii) by a final judgment or decree of any court of competent jurisdiction; or (iv) by any other means to which the Indemnified Party and the Indemnitor shall agree in writing. The judgment or decree of a court shall be deemed final when the time for appeal, if any, shall have expired and no appeal shall have been taken or when all appeals taken shall have been finally determined. The Indemnified Party shall have the burden of proof in establishing the amount of Damages suffered by it.

Section 12.3          Indemnification Claim Procedures.

(a)          If any Action is commenced or threatened that may give rise to a claim for indemnification (an “Indemnification Claim”) by any Person entitled to indemnification under this Agreement (each, an “Indemnified Party”), then such Indemnified Party shall promptly (i) notify the Indemnitor and (ii) deliver to the Indemnitor a written notice (A) describing in reasonable detail the nature of the Action, (B) including a copy of all papers served with respect to such Action, (C) including the Indemnified Party’s best estimate of the amount of Damages that may arise from such Action, and (D) describing in reasonable detail the basis for the Indemnified Party’s Indemnification Claim under this Agreement. Failure to notify the Indemnitor in accordance with this Section 12.3(a) will not relieve the Indemnitor of any liability that it may have to the Indemnified Party, except to the extent (1) the defense of such Action is prejudiced by the Indemnified Party’s failure to give such notice or (2) the Indemnified Party fails to notify the Indemnitor of such Indemnification Claim in accordance with this Section 12.3(a) prior to the Survival Expiration Date.

77

(b)          An Indemnitor may elect at any time to assume and thereafter conduct the defense of any Action subject to any such Indemnification Claim with counsel of the Indemnitor’s choice and to settle or compromise any such Action, and each Indemnified Party shall cooperate in all respects with the conduct of such defense by the Indemnitor (including the making of any related claims, counterclaim or cross complaint against any Person in connection with the Action) and/or the settlement of such Action by the Indemnitor; provided, however, that (1) the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in any such defense with separate counsel at the reasonable expense of the Indemnitor if (x) so requested by the Indemnitor in writing or (y) in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Indemnified Party, representation of the Indemnified Party and the Indemnitor would create a conflict of interest; provided, that in any such circumstance the Indemnitor shall not be required to pay for more than one such counsel for all Indemnified Parties in connection with any Indemnification Claim, and (2) the Indemnitor will not approve of the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or compromise with respect to the Indemnification Claim without the Indemnified Party’s prior written approval (which must not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), unless the terms of such settlement provide for a complete release of the claims that are the subject of such Action in favor of the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnified Party gives an Indemnitor notice of an Indemnification Claim and the Indemnitor does not, within sixty (60) days after such notice is given, (i) give notice to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume the defense of the Action or Actions subject to such Indemnification Claim and (ii) thereafter promptly assume such defense, then the Indemnified Party may conduct the defense of such Action; provided, however, that (A) the Indemnified Party will not agree to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or compromise with respect to the Action or Actions subject to any such Indemnification Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnitor (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) and (B) if at any time the Indemnitor acknowledges in writing that such Action is a Damage subject to this Article XII, the Indemnitor may thereafter assume the defense of such Action.

(c)          If any Indemnified Party becomes aware of any circumstances that may be reasonably likely to give rise to an Indemnification Claim for any matter not involving an Action, then such Indemnified Party shall promptly (i) notify the Indemnitor and (ii) deliver to the Indemnitor a written notice (A) describing in reasonable detail the nature of the circumstances giving rise to the Indemnification Claim, (B) including the Indemnified Party’s best estimate of the amount of Damages that may arise from such circumstances, and (C) describing in reasonable detail the basis for the Indemnified Party’s Indemnification Claim under this Agreement. Failure to notify the Indemnitor in accordance with this Section 12.3(c) will not relieve the Indemnitor of any liability that it may have to the Indemnified Party, except to the extent (1) the defense of such Action is prejudiced by the Indemnified Party’s failure to give such notice or (2) the Indemnified Party fails to notify the Indemnitor of such Indemnification Claim in accordance with this Section 12.3(c) prior to the Survival Expiration Date.

78

(d)          At the reasonable request of the Indemnitor, each Indemnified Party shall grant the Indemnitor and its representatives all reasonable access to the books, records, employees and properties of such Indemnified Party to the extent reasonably related to the matters to which the applicable Indemnification Claim relates. All such access shall be granted during normal business hours and shall be granted under the conditions which shall not unreasonably interfere with the business and operations of such Indemnified Party.

(e)          The claim procedures otherwise specified in this Section 12.3 shall not apply to indemnification claims in respect of any Deficit Amount. In the event of a Deficit Amount, as finally determined in accordance with Section 3.6, then, promptly following the Determination Date, and in any event within five (5) Business Days of the Determination Date, the GPIAC-Designated Directors and the Holder Representative shall execute a joint written instruction to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to disburse to Acquiror an amount of Acquiror Common Shares equal to (A) (i) the Deficit Amount, divided by $10.00; divided by (B) the Closing Ownership Ratio. Upon receipt of such Acquiror Common Shares from the Escrow Agent, Acquiror shall promptly cancel such shares.

Section 12.4         Limitations on Indemnification Liability. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, any claims an Indemnified Party makes under this Article XII will be limited as follows:

(a)          Source and Order of Recovery. If there is determined to be any amount owing to a GPIAC Indemnified Party as a result of indemnification under this Article XII, the amount of then-remaining Indemnification Escrow Shares shall be a GPIAC Indemnified Party’s sole source of recovery with respect to any and all amounts owed to a GPIAC Indemnified Party pursuant to this Article XII, except in the case of fraud, in which case:

(i)          in respect of claims against (A) the Company or (B) a Co-Founder, whether in such Co-Founder’s capacity as a Stockholder, director, officer or employee of the Company, who was perpetrator or had actual knowledge of fraud (any such claim under clause (A) or clause (B), a “Specified Co-Founder Fraud Claim”), then (A) Damages shall first be paid out of the then-remaining Indemnification Escrow Shares and (B) if the amount then-remaining in the Indemnification Escrow Shares is insufficient to satisfy in full any amount owing to a GPIAC Indemnified Party in respect of such Specified Co-Founder Fraud Claim, then the GPIAC Indemnified Party shall only be entitled to recourse directly against the Co-Founders for the amount of Damages in excess of the then-remaining Indemnification Escrow Shares and shall not be entitled to recourse against any other Pre-Closing Holder in respect of such Specified Co-Founder Fraud Claim; and

79

(ii)         notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Pre-Closing Holder (other than the Co-Founders), whether in such Pre-Closing Holder’s capacity as a Stockholder, director, officer or employee of the Company, was a perpetrator or had actual knowledge of fraud (“Specified Pre-Closing Holder Fraud Claim”), then (A) Damages relating to such Specified Pre-Closing Holder Fraud Claim shall first be paid out of the then-remaining Indemnification Escrow Shares and (B) if the amount then-remaining in the Indemnification Escrow Shares is insufficient to satisfy in full any amount owing to a GPIAC Indemnified Party in respect of such Specified Pre-Closing Holder Fraud Claim, then the GPIAC Indemnified Party shall only be entitled to recourse directly against such Pre-Closing Holder and the Co-Founders for the amount of Damages in excess of the then-remaining Indemnification Escrow Shares and shall not be entitled to recourse against any other Pre-Closing Holder in respect of such Specified Pre-Closing Holder Fraud Claim; provided that the Pre-Closing Holder and the Co-Founders shall first satisfy their obligations to the GPIAC Indemnified Party in excess of the then-remaining Indemnification Escrow Shares through the delivery of Acquiror Common Shares then held by such Persons, pursuant to the formula described below. The amount of any Acquiror Common Shares necessary to satisfy any such excess shall equal (x) such excess amount of Damages to be satisfied through the delivery of Acquiror Common Shares divided by $10.00, divided by (y) the Closing Ownership Ratio. Upon determination of the amount of Acquiror Common Shares necessary to satisfy any Damages under this Section 12.4(a)(ii), such Pre-Closing Holder and such Co-Founders shall promptly and, in any event, within five (5) Business Days, remit such amount of Acquiror Common Shares to Acquiror for cancellation;

provided, however, that Section 12.4(a)(i) and Section 12.4(a)(ii) shall not be mutually exclusive and the liability of any Pre-Closing Holder or Co-Founder resulting from any claim that is finally determined pursuant to both a Specified Co-Founder Fraud Claim and a Specified Pre-Closing Holder Fraud Claim shall be several and shall be satisfied pursuant to Section 12.4(a)(i) and Section 12.4(a)(ii), as applicable, in the relative proportion of each such Persons’ comparative fault in respect of such claims.

(b)          Claims Basket. The GPIAC Indemnified Parties shall not be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article XII with respect to any Indemnification Claim made with respect to a Company Warranty Breach (other than Company Warranty Breaches with respect to Company Fundamental Representations) unless and until the amount of Damages (excluding costs and expenses of GPIAC Indemnified Parties incurred in connection with making such claim under this Agreement) incurred by the GPIAC Indemnified Parties that are the subject of such claim exceeds $75,000 (the “Per-Claim Basket”), and the GPIAC Indemnified Parties shall only be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article XII with respect to Indemnification Claims made with respect to Company Warranty Breaches (other than Company Warranty Breaches with respect to Company Fundamental Representations) to the extent the aggregate amount of all Damages (excluding costs and expenses of GPIAC Indemnified Parties incurred in connection with making such claim under this Agreement) incurred by the GPIAC Indemnified Parties for which the GPIAC Indemnified Parties are entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article XII for all such Indemnification Claims (excluding amounts below the applicable Per-Claim Basket) exceeds One Million Seven Hundred and Fifty Thousand Dollars ($1,750,000) (the “Basket Amount”). Once the Basket Amount is exceeded, if at all, the GPIAC Indemnified Parties shall only be entitled to indemnification for such Damages to the extent both (i) such Damages considered on a per-claim basis exceed the Per-Claim Basket, and (ii) Damages in respect of all such Indemnification Claims that satisfy clause (i) of this sentence exceed the Basket Amount. Other than with respect to any claim or counterclaim for breach by Acquiror of any representations, warranties or covenants set forth in Article V or Article VII, the Seller Indemnified Parties shall not be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article XII with respect to any Indemnification Claim made with respect to an Acquiror Warranty Breach (other than Acquiror Warranty Breaches with respect to Acquiror Fundamental Representations) unless and until the amount of Damages incurred by the Seller Indemnified Parties that are the subject of such claim exceeds the Per-Claim Basket, and the Seller Indemnified Parties shall only be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article XII with respect to Indemnification Claims made with respect to Acquiror Warranty Breaches (other than Acquiror Warranty Breaches with respect to Acquiror Fundamental Representations) to the extent the aggregate amount of all Damages incurred by the Seller Indemnified Parties for which the Seller Indemnified Parties are entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article XII for all such Indemnification Claims (excluding amounts below the applicable Per-Claim Basket) exceeds the Basket Amount. Once the Basket Amount is exceeded, if at all, the Seller Indemnified Parties shall only be entitled to indemnification for such Damages to the extent both (i) such Damages considered on a per-claim basis exceed the Per-Claim Basket, and (ii) Damages in respect of all such Indemnification Claims that satisfy clause (i) of this sentence exceed the Basket Amount.

80

(c)          Damages Net of Insurance Proceeds, Tax Benefits and Other Third-Party Recoveries. All Damages for which any Indemnified Party would otherwise be entitled to indemnification under this Article XII shall be reduced by the amount of insurance proceeds, Tax benefits actually realized by the Indemnified Party in the taxable year in which such indemnification payment is made, indemnification payments and other third-party recoveries which any Indemnified Party actually receives in respect of any Damages incurred by such Indemnified Party, net of applicable reserves, and deductibles, and reasonable internal or third party expenses actually incurred in obtaining or receiving such recoveries. In the event any Indemnified Party is entitled to any such insurance proceeds, Tax benefits, indemnity payments or any third-party recoveries in respect of any Damages for which such Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article XII, such Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, receive or realize such proceeds, benefits, payments or recoveries. In the event that any such insurance proceeds, Tax benefits, indemnity payments or other third-party recoveries are realized by an Indemnified Party subsequent to receipt by such Indemnified Party of any indemnification payment hereunder in respect of the claims to which such insurance proceeds, Tax benefits, indemnity payments or other third-party recoveries relate, appropriate refunds shall be made promptly by the relevant Indemnified Parties of all or the relevant portion of such indemnification payment.

(d)          Assignment of Claims. If any Indemnified Party receives any indemnification payment pursuant to this Article XII, at the election of the Indemnitor, such Indemnified Party shall assign to the Indemnitor all of its claims for recovery against third Persons as to such Damages, whether by insurance coverage, contribution claims, subrogation or otherwise.

(e)          Expenses. In the event that the Holder Representative assumes any defense of any Action for which a GPIAC Indemnified Party has sought indemnification, reasonable expenses incurred by any Seller Indemnified Party in connection therewith, including reasonable legal costs and expenses, shall constitute Damages for purposes of determining the maximum aggregate amount to which the GPIAC Indemnified Parties shall be entitled pursuant to Section 12.4(a).

81

(f)          Consequential, Punitive and Certain Other Damages. No Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnification for any (i) special, punitive or exemplary damages, (ii) any loss of enterprise value, diminution in value of any business, damage to reputation or loss of goodwill, or (iii) any lost profits, consequential, indirect or incidental damages.

(g)         Damages Reserved for on the Closing Balance Sheet. No GPIAC Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnification for any Damages in respect of any liability or obligation accrued or reserved for on the Closing balance sheet.

(h)         No Duplicate Claims. In the event a GPIAC Indemnified Party or Seller Indemnified Party, as the case may be, recovers Damages in respect of an Indemnification Claim, no other GPIAC Indemnified Party or Seller Indemnified Party, as applicable, may recover the same Damages in respect of an Indemnification Claim under this Agreement.

(i)          Other Limitations. Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement or otherwise, no Indemnified Party shall be entitled to recover Damages, and no equityholder, director, officer or employee of the Company shall have any liability hereunder as a result of any Action or announcement by the persons identified on Section 12.4(i) of the Company Disclosure Letter following the announcement of the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 12.5     Mitigation of Damages. An Indemnified Party shall use its reasonable best efforts to mitigate any Damages for which it is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article XII.

Section 12.6     Tax Treatment. All amounts paid with respect to Indemnification Claims under this Agreement shall be treated by the parties hereto for all Tax purposes as adjustments to the Merger Consideration.

Section 12.7     Indemnification Sole and Exclusive Remedy. Following the Closing, except in the case of fraud, indemnification pursuant to this Article XII shall be the sole and exclusive remedy (other than for specific performance) of the parties and any parties claiming by or through any party (including the Indemnified Parties) related to or arising from any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in, or otherwise pursuant to, this Agreement.

Section 12.8    Nature of GPIAC Indemnified Parties’ Recovery from Indemnity Escrow. Except as otherwise contemplated by Section 12.4(a), the Parties agree recovery by the GPIAC Indemnified Parties for any Damages (as finally determined pursuant to this Article XII) shall be satisfied from the Indemnification Escrow Shares by Escrow Agent’s release to Acquiror, and upon receipt thereof, Acquiror’s prompt cancellation of: an amount of Acquiror Common Shares equal to (A) such Damages, divided by $10.00; divided by (B) the Closing Ownership Ratio.

82

Section 12.9         Release of Escrow. The Escrow Agreement shall specify that the Indemnification Escrow Shares (if any) shall be released to the Escrow Stockholders in accordance with such holders’ relative Applicable Percentages on the first Business Day following the Survival Expiration Date; provided, however, that if any claim pursuant to this Article XII shall have been properly asserted by any GPIAC Indemnified Party in accordance with this Agreement on or prior to the Survival Expiration Date and remain pending on the Survival Expiration Date (any such claim, a “Pending Claim”), (i) the Indemnification Escrow Shares released to the Escrow Stockholders shall be the amount of Indemnification Escrow Shares then held by the Escrow Agent, minus the aggregate number of Acquiror Common Shares equal to (A) the amount of such Pending Claim divided by $10.00, divided by (B) the Closing Ownership Ratio and (ii) any shares that remain in escrow following the Survival Expiration Date in respect of any such Pending Claim shall be released to the Escrow Stockholders entitled to receive the Merger Consideration in accordance with such holders’ relative Applicable Percentages promptly upon resolution or (if applicable) satisfaction of such Pending Claim. In each case in which this Section 12.9 provides for the release of Indemnification Escrow Shares, each of the GPIAC-Designated Directors and the Holder Representative shall promptly submit joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to distribute the Indemnification Escrow Shares in accordance with this Section 12.9 and the Escrow Agreement.

Article XIII

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 13.1         Trust Account Waiver. Each of the Company and Holder Representative acknowledges that Acquiror is a blank check company with the powers and privileges to effect a Business Combination. Each of the Company and Holder Representative further acknowledges that, as described in the prospectus dated May 19, 2015 (the “Prospectus”) available at www.sec.gov, substantially all of Acquiror assets consist of the cash proceeds of Acquiror’s initial public offering and private placements of its securities and substantially all of those proceeds have been deposited in the Trust Account for the benefit of Acquiror, certain of its public stockholders and the underwriters of Acquiror’s initial public offering. Each of the Company and Holder Representative acknowledges that it has been advised by Acquiror that, except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to Acquiror to pay its franchise tax, income tax and similar obligations, the Trust Agreement provides that cash in the Trust Account may be disbursed only (i) to Acquiror in limited amounts from time to time in order to permit Acquiror to pay its operating expenses; (ii) if Acquiror completes the transactions which constitute a Business Combination, then to those Persons and in such amounts as described in the Prospectus; and (iii) if Acquiror fails to complete a Business Combination within the allotted time period and liquidates, subject to the terms of the Trust Agreement, to Acquiror in limited amounts to permit Acquiror to pay the costs and expenses of its liquidation and dissolution, and then to Acquiror’s public stockholders. For and in consideration of Acquiror entering into this Agreement, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, each of the Company and Holder Representative, on behalf of the Pre-Closing Holders, hereby irrevocably waives any right, title, interest or claim of any kind they have or may have in the future in or to any monies in the Trust Account and agree not to seek recourse against the Trust Account or any funds distributed therefrom as a result of, or arising out of, this Agreement and any negotiations, contracts or agreements with Acquiror; provided that (x) nothing herein shall serve to limit or prohibit the Company’s and Holder Representative’s right to pursue a claim against Acquiror for legal relief against monies or other assets held outside the Trust Account, for specific performance or other equitable relief in connection with the consummation of the transactions (including a claim for Acquiror to specifically perform its obligations under this Agreement and cause the disbursement of the balance of the cash remaining in the Trust Account (after giving effect to the Acquiror Share Redemptions) to the Pre-Closing Holders in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Trust Agreement) so long as such claim would not affect Acquiror’s ability to fulfill its obligation to effectuate the Acquiror Share Redemptions, or for fraud and (y) nothing herein shall serve to limit or prohibit any claims that the Company and Holder Representative may have in the future against Acquiror’s assets or funds that are not held in the Trust Account (including any funds that have been released from the Trust Account and any assets that have been purchased or acquired with any such funds).

83

Section 13.2         Waiver. Any party to this Agreement may, at any time prior to the Closing, by action taken by its Board of Directors, or officers thereunto duly authorized, waive any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement or agree to an amendment or modification to this Agreement by an agreement in writing executed in the same manner (but not necessarily by the same Persons) as this Agreement.

Any disclosure made by a party in the applicable Disclosure Letter, or any section thereof, with reference to any section of this Agreement or section of the applicable Disclosure Letter shall be deemed to be a disclosure with respect to such other applicable sections of this Agreement or sections of applicable Disclosure Letter as to which the disclosure on its face is reasonably apparent upon reading the disclosure contained in such section of the applicable Disclosure Letter, without independent knowledge on the part of the reader regarding the matter disclosed, that such disclosure is responsive to such other section of this Agreement or section of the applicable Disclosure Letter. Certain information set forth in the Disclosure Letters is included solely for informational purposes and may not be required to be disclosed pursuant to this Agreement. The disclosure of any information shall not be deemed to constitute an acknowledgment that such information is required to be disclosed in connection with the representations and warranties made in this Agreement, nor shall such information be deemed to establish a standard of materiality.

Section 13.10       Entire Agreement. (i) This Agreement (together with the Company Disclosure Letter and the Acquiror Disclosure Letter) and (ii) that certain Non-Disclosure Agreement, dated as of April 6, 2017, between Sponsor and the Company (the “Confidentiality Agreement”) constitute the entire agreement among the parties relating to the transactions contemplated hereby and supersede any other agreements, whether written or oral, that may have been made or entered into by or among any of the parties hereto or any of their respective Subsidiaries relating to the transactions contemplated hereby. No representations, warranties, covenants, understandings, agreements, oral or otherwise, relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement exist between the parties except as expressly set forth in this Agreement and the Confidentiality Agreement.

Section 13.11       Amendments. This Agreement may be amended or modified in whole or in part, only by a duly authorized (including pursuant to the provisions of Article XI) agreement in writing executed in the same manner as this Agreement and which makes reference to this Agreement.

Section 13.12        Publicity.

(a)          All press releases or other public communications relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and the method of the release for publication thereof, shall prior to the Closing be subject to the prior mutual approval of Acquiror and the Company, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld by any party; provided, that no party shall be required to obtain consent pursuant to this Section 13.12(a) to the extent any proposed release or statement is substantially equivalent to the information that has previously been made public without breach of the obligation under this Section 13.12(a).

(b)          The restriction in Section 13.12(a) shall not apply to the extent the public announcement is required by applicable securities Law, any Governmental Authority or stock exchange rule; provided, however, that in such an event, the party making the announcement shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to consult with the other party in advance as to its form, content and timing. For the avoidance of doubt, disclosures resulting from the parties’ efforts to obtain approval or early termination under the HSR Act and to make any relating filing shall be deemed not to violate this Agreement.

Section 13.13       Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, the other provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. The parties further agree that if any provision contained herein is, to any extent, held invalid or unenforceable in any respect under the Laws governing this Agreement, they shall take any actions necessary to render the remaining provisions of this Agreement valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by Law and, to the extent necessary, shall amend or otherwise modify this Agreement to replace any provision contained herein that is held invalid or unenforceable with a valid and enforceable provision giving effect to the intent of the parties.

87

Section 13.14        Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a)          Any proceeding or action based upon, arising out of or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby must be brought in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, to the extent such Court does not have subject matter jurisdiction, the Superior Court of the State of Delaware), or, if it has or can acquire jurisdiction, in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, and each of the parties irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of each such court in any such proceeding or action, waives any objection it may now or hereafter have to personal jurisdiction, venue or to convenience of forum, agrees that all claims in respect of the proceeding or action shall be heard and determined only in any such court, and agrees not to bring any proceeding or action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in any other court. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to affect the right of any party to serve process in any manner permitted by Law or to commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against any other party in any other jurisdiction, in each case, to enforce judgments obtained in any action, suit or proceeding brought pursuant to this Section 13.14.

(b)          Each party acknowledges and agrees that any controversy which may arise under this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby is likely to involve complicated and difficult issues, and therefore each such party hereby irrevocably, unconditionally and voluntarily waives any right such party may have to a trial by jury in respect of any action, suit or proceeding directly or indirectly arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 13.15       Enforcement. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to specific enforcement of the terms and provisions of this Agreement, in addition to any other remedy to which any party is entitled at law or in equity. In the event that any action shall be brought in equity to enforce the provisions of this Agreement, no party shall allege, and each party hereby waives the defense, that there is an adequate remedy at law, and each party agrees to waiver any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection therewith.

Section 13.16       Non-Recourse. This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of, or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby may only be brought against, the entities that are expressly named as parties hereto and any express guarantor of any such party’s obligations hereunder and then only with respect to the specific obligations set forth herein with respect to such party; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not relieve (i) any party for liability with respect to fraud committed by such party or (ii) any Pre-Closing Holder, (including any Co-Founder) for liability with respect to fraud perpetrated by or actually known to such Pre-Closing Holder, in accordance with, in the case of each of clause (i) and (ii), Section 12.4(a). Except to the extent a named party to this Agreement (and then only to the extent of the specific obligations undertaken by such named party in this Agreement and not otherwise), no past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney, advisor or representative or Affiliate of any of the foregoing shall have any liability (whether in contract, tort, equity or otherwise) for any one or more of the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or other obligations or liabilities of any one or more of the Company or Acquiror under this Agreement (whether for indemnification or otherwise) of or for any claim based on, arising out of, or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

88

Section 13.17        Conflicts and Privilege. Acquiror, the Company and the Holder Representative hereby agree that, in the event a dispute with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby arises after the Closing between or among Acquiror, the GPIAC Designated Directors and/or the Sponsor, on the one hand, and the Company, the Pre-Closing Holders, the Holder Representative and/or the Escrow Stockholders, on the other hand, any legal counsel (including Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP) that represented Acquiror, the GPIAC Designated Directors and/or the Sponsor prior to the Closing may represent the GPIAC Designated Directors and/or Sponsor in such dispute even though the interests of the GPIAC Designated Directors and/or Sponsor may be directly adverse to the Acquiror, and even though such counsel may have represented Acquiror in a matter substantially related to such dispute, or may be handling ongoing matters for Acquiror, the GPIAC Designated Directors and/or the Sponsor.  Acquiror, the Company and the Holder Representative further agree that, as to all legally privileged communications prior to the Closing between or among any legal counsel (including Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP) that represented Acquiror, the GPIAC Designated Directors and/or the Sponsor prior to the Closing and any one or more such Persons that relate in any way to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the attorney/client privilege and the expectation of client confidence belongs to the GPIAC Designated Directors and may be controlled by such GPIAC Designated Directors, and shall not pass to or be claimed or controlled by Acquiror (after giving effect to the Closing), the Company and the Holder Representative; provided that the GPIAC Designated Directors shall not waive such attorney/client privilege other than to the extent they determine appropriate in connection with the enforcement or defense of their respective rights or obligations existing under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any privileged communications or information shared by the Company prior to the Closing with Acquiror, Sponsor or the GPIAC Appointed Directors (in any capacity) under a common interest agreement shall remain the privileged communications or information of the Surviving Corporation.
