STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT

This Stock Purchase Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of August 6, 2024 (the “Agreement Date”), by and among SoundHound AI, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Purchaser”), Firehorse Merger Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Purchaser Sub”), IPSoft Global Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and BuildGroup LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (each of IPSoft Global Holdings, Inc. and BuildGroup LLC, a “Seller” and collectively, the “Sellers”). Certain other terms used herein are defined in Exhibit A.

Recitals

A. The Sellers are, and as of the Closing will be, the holders and the legal and beneficial owners of 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Company Capital Stock.

B. Purchaser desires to, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, purchase from the Sellers, and each Seller desires to, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, sell to Purchaser, all of the shares of Company Capital Stock owned by such Seller free from any Encumbrances (other than the Surviving Encumbrances) (the “Stock Purchase”).

C. Promptly after the Stock Purchase, and as part of the same overall transaction, Purchaser shall effect a merger of the Company with and into Purchaser Sub, pursuant to which Purchaser Sub will survive and remain a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Purchaser treated as a disregarded entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes (the “Merger”), in accordance with this Agreement and the Applicable Laws of the State of Delaware.

D. For U.S. federal, and applicable state and local, income tax purposes, (i) the parties hereto intend that the Stock Purchase and the Merger, taken together, constitute a single integrated transaction as described in Revenue Ruling 2001-46, 2001-2 C.B. 321, that qualifies as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(A) of the Code, and (ii) this Agreement is intended to be, and hereby is adopted as, a “plan of reorganization” (within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code and Treasury Regulations Sections 1.368-2(g) and 1.368-3).

E. The Sellers and Purchaser desire to make certain representations, warranties, covenants, and other agreements in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the documents referenced herein, including the Stock Purchase (collectively, the “Transactions”), as set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements and obligations contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

Purchaser is permitted and authorized to rely on the allocations set forth in the Spreadsheet and shall have no responsibility or liability with respect to any error in such allocations. Notwithstanding anything the contrary herein, in no event shall the aggregate consideration payable and issuable pursuant to this Section 1.1 exceed the Aggregate Consideration.

1.2 Closing. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, the closing of the Transactions (the “Closing”) shall take place via remote exchange of signatures, at 10:00 a.m. Pacific time on the Agreement Date. The date on which the Closing occurs is sometimes referred to herein as the “Closing Date.”

Receipt by Purchaser of any of the agreements, instruments, certificates or documents delivered pursuant to this Section 1.3(b) shall not be deemed to be an agreement by Purchaser that the information or statements contained therein are true, correct or complete, and shall not diminish Purchaser’s remedies hereunder if any of the foregoing agreements, instruments, certificates or documents are not true, correct or complete.

1.4 Treatment of Company Options. At the Closing, the Sellers shall ensure that each outstanding Company Option shall, without any further action on the part of any holder thereof, expire and be cancelled and extinguished without any present or future right to receive any consideration therefor, in each case in accordance with the Company Option Plan. Prior to the Closing, and subject to the reasonable review and approval of Purchaser, the Sellers shall cause the Company to take all actions reasonably necessary to effect the transactions contemplated by this Section 1.4 under the Company Option Plan, all Company Option agreements, any other plan or arrangement of the Company (whether written or oral, formal or informal) and any Applicable Law, including adopting all resolutions, giving all notices, obtaining consents from each holder of such Company Options and taking any other actions that are reasonably necessary to effectuate this Section 1.4.

3

(d) Purchaser Common Stock; Legends. The shares of Purchaser Common Stock issued pursuant to the terms of this Agreement will be issued in a transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act (by reason of Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act or Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated by the SEC under the Securities Act) and therefore may not be re-offered or resold other than in conformity with the registration requirements of the Securities Act and such other applicable rules and regulations or pursuant to an exemption therefrom. The shares of Purchaser Common Stock to be issued pursuant to the terms of this Agreement will be “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”) and may not be offered, sold, pledged, assigned or otherwise transferred unless (A) a registration statement with respect thereto is effective under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws or (B) an exemption from such registration exists and either Purchaser receives an opinion of counsel to the holder of such securities, which counsel and opinion are reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser, that such securities may be offered, sold, pledged, assigned or transferred in the manner contemplated without an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or applicable state securities laws. Any shares of Purchaser Common Stock to be issued pursuant to this Agreement shall bear the following legends (along with any other legends that may be required under Applicable Law):

THE OFFER AND SALE OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE ACT OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER SUCH ACT AND SUCH LAWS WHICH, IN THE OPINION OF COUNSEL, IS AVAILABLE.

4

(e) No Liability. Purchaser is not assuming, and shall not assume, any obligations or Liabilities under (i) any options to purchase or otherwise acquire any shares of Company Capital Stock or(ii) any other direct or indirect rights to acquire shares of Company Capital Stock.

1.6 Upfront Consideration Adjustment.

(a) Within 120 days after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall deliver to the Seller Agent a statement (the “Purchaser Closing Statement”) setting forth the proposed final Upfront Consideration, including Purchaser’s good faith calculation as of the Closing Date and immediately prior to the Closing of (i) the Company Net Working Capital, the Closing Net Working Capital Shortfall, and the Closing Net Working Capital Surplus, (ii) the amount of Company Debt, (iii) the amount of Company Cash and (iv) the amount of Transaction Expenses, along with reasonable itemization and supporting detail therefor. The Purchaser Closing Statement shall be prepared in accordance with Accounting Principles and take into account the Net Working Capital Collar for purposes of all Company Net Working Capital calculations. Purchaser shall provide the Seller Agent and its Representatives reasonable access upon reasonable notice to the records, properties, personnel and (subject to the execution of customary work paper access letters if requested) auditors relating to the preparation of the Purchaser Closing Statement and shall cause its personnel to reasonably cooperate with the Seller Agent or its Representatives in connection with its review of the Purchaser Closing Statement.

(b) The Seller Agent shall have 30 days within which to review the Purchaser Closing Statement after Purchaser’s delivery thereof. The Seller Agent may object to any calculation set forth in the Purchaser Closing Statement by providing written notice of such objection to Purchaser within 30 days after Purchaser’s delivery of the Purchaser Closing Statement to the Seller Agent (the “Notice of Objection”), together with the basis of its objection in reasonable detail and any supporting documentation, information and calculations. If a Notice of Objection is not provided within such 30-day period, the Purchaser Closing Statement (and each of the calculations set forth therein) shall be deemed final.

(c) If the Seller Agent provides the Notice of Objection, then Purchaser and the Seller Agent shall confer in good faith for a period of up to 30 days following Purchaser’s receipt of the Notice of Objection in an attempt to resolve any disputed matter set forth in the Notice of Objection, and any resolution by them shall be in writing and shall be final and binding on the parties hereto.

(d) If, after the 30-day period set forth in Section 1.6(c), Purchaser and the Seller Agent cannot resolve any matter set forth in the Notice of Objection, then Purchaser and the Seller Agent shall engage one of the “big four” independent certified public accounting firms acceptable to both Purchaser and the Seller Agent or, if such firm is not able or willing to so act, another nationally-recognized accounting firm reasonably acceptable to both Purchaser and the Seller Agent (the “Reviewing Accountant”) to review only the matters in the Notice of Objection that are still disputed by Purchaser and the Seller Agent and any calculations to the extent relevant thereto. The Reviewing Accountant shall act as an expert, not as an arbitrator, in resolving matters in the Notice of Objection. The proceeding before the Reviewing Accountant shall be an expert determination under Applicable Laws governing expert determination and appraisal proceedings. All communications between the Seller Agent and Purchaser or any of their respective Representatives, on the one hand, and the Reviewing Accountant, on the other hand, shall be in writing with copies simultaneously delivered to the non-communicating party. The Reviewing Accountant shall be instructed to resolve the unresolved disputed matters in accordance with the definitions of Company Net Working Capital, Company Debt, Company Cash and Transaction Expenses and shall be instructed not to independently investigate any other matters. After such review and a review of the Company’s relevant books and records, the Reviewing Accountant shall promptly (and in any event within 45 days following its engagement) determine the resolution of such remaining disputed matters and render a written decision as to each disputed matter in the Notice of Objection that is submitted to the Reviewing Accountant, including a statement in reasonable detail of the basis for its determination, which determination shall (absent fraud or manifest error) be final and binding on the parties hereto. In no event shall the decision of the Reviewing Accountant provide for a calculation of any element of the Upfront Consideration that is less than the lower calculation thereof shown in the Purchaser Closing Statement or in the Notice of Objection or greater than the higher calculation thereof shown in the Purchaser Closing Statement or in the Notice of Objection.

5

(e) If the Upfront Consideration as finally determined pursuant to Section 1.6(b), Section 1.6(c) and/or Section 1.6(d), as the case may be (the “Final Upfront Consideration”), is less than the Upfront Consideration that was calculated in accordance with the Seller Closing Financial Certificate and set forth in the Spreadsheet (such difference, the “Upfront Consideration Shortfall”), then Purchaser and Seller Agent shall provide a joint written instruction to the Escrow Agent such that Purchaser shall, as promptly as practicable after such final determination (and in any event within 10 Business Days) (i) recover from the Adjustment Escrow Fund a number of shares of Purchaser Common Stock equal to the quotient determined by dividing (A) the Upfront Consideration Shortfall by (B) the Purchaser Stock Price, rounded down to the nearest whole share, and (ii) if the number of shares of Purchaser Common Stock in the Adjustment Escrow Fund exceeds the number of shares recovered pursuant to clause (i), Purchaser and Seller Agent shall provide a join written instruction to the Escrow Agent to release to the Sellers, in accordance with their Pro Rata Share, such excess shares of Purchaser Common Stock from the Adjustment Escrow Fund. Purchaser agrees that any Upfront Consideration Shortfall shall first be recovered from the Adjustment Escrow Fund in accordance with the terms of this Section 1.6(e) and second, for any amounts in excess of the Adjustment Escrow Fund, in Purchaser’s sole discretion, from the Indemnity Escrow Fund or the Sellers directly in accordance with their Pro Rata Share; provided that, if Purchaser elects to recover such excess directly from the Sellers, the Seller Agent may elect, at its sole discretion, to satisfy the Sellers’ obligations with respect to such excess Upfront Consideration Shortfall by instructing Purchaser to cancel a number of Purchaser Shares not in the Escrow Fund and comprising the Upfront Stock Consideration with a value equal to such excess amount (based on the closing price of a Purchaser Share on the trading day immediately prior to the delivery of such instruction).

(f) If the Final Upfront Consideration is greater than the Upfront Consideration that was calculated in accordance with the Seller Closing Financial Certificate and set forth in the Spreadsheet (such difference, the “Upfront Consideration Surplus”), then the Upfront Consideration Surplus shall be deemed to be added to the Upfront Consideration and as promptly as practicable thereafter, (and in any event within 10 Business Days), Purchaser and the Seller Agent shall provide a joint written instruction to the Escrow Agent to release to the Sellers, in accordance with their Pro Rata Share, (i) a number of shares of Purchaser Common Stock equal to the quotient determined by dividing (A) the Upfront Consideration Surplus by (B) the Purchaser Stock Price, rounded down to the nearest whole share, and (ii) all Purchaser Common Stock in the Adjustment Escrow Fund.

(g) The fees, costs and expenses of the Reviewing Accountant shall be allocated between the Seller Agent (on behalf of the Sellers), on the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other hand, in the same proportion that the aggregate amount of the disputed items submitted to the Reviewing Accountant that is unsuccessfully disputed by each such party (as finally determined by the Reviewing Accountant) bears to the total amount of such disputed items so submitted.

6

1.7 Earnout.

(a) Certain Definitions. As used in this Agreement, the following terms shall have the meanings indicated below:

(i) “Earnout Payment” means each of the Base Earnout Payment and the Excess Earnout Payment, as applicable.

(ii) “Earnout Period” means each of the First Earnout Period and the Second Earnout Period, as applicable.

(iii) “First Earnout Period” means fiscal year 2025, commencing January 1, 2025 and ending December 31, 2025.

(iv) “Second Earnout Period” means fiscal year 2026, commencing January 1, 2026 and ending December 31, 2026.

(v) “Total Software Revenue” means the aggregate revenue recognized by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including the Company and the Company Subsidiaries) from sales of the Company Products during the applicable Earnout Period. This amount shall exclude (i) any revenue of “Digital First” as such business is detailed in the Company’s income statement for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, to the extent such revenue involves direct employee intervention, such as with respect to Escalation Support and Digital Containment Subscription, (ii) any revenue associated with “Professional Services,” “Managed Services,” and “Perpetual License,” as such businesses are detailed in the Company’s income statement for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, and (iii) any revenue that the Company collects on behalf of third parties and subsequently transfers to those third parties pursuant to the contract referenced in Item 6 of Section 2.3 of the Seller Disclosure Letter. The determination of the excluded revenue under clause (i) shall be made by Purchaser, in its reasonable discretion, based on GAAP. An illustrative calculation of “Total Software Revenue” for fiscal year 2023 is attached as Schedule 1.7.

(b) Earnout Payments. On the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, including any deductions for any applicable indemnity offsets permitted under Article IX, the Sellers shall be eligible to receive from Purchaser up to 16,822,429 shares of Purchaser Common Stock (the “Maximum Earnout Amount”), contingent upon the achievement of certain revenue metrics (each, an “Earnout Metric”, and together, the “Earnout Metrics”) as follows; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall Purchaser be obligated to pay an aggregate amount of Earnout Payments exceeding the Maximum Earnout Amount:

(i) Up to 11,214,953 shares of Purchaser Common Stock (the “Maximum Base Earnout Amount”) shall be payable by Purchaser to the Sellers if the Total Software Revenue during the First Earnout Period is equal to or greater than $55,000,000 (the “Base Earnout Payment”), calculated as follows:

(A) If the Total Software Revenue is equal to $55,000,000 during the First Earnout Period, the Base Earnout Payment shall be equal to 50% of the Maximum Base Earnout Amount (i.e., 5,607,476 shares of Purchaser Common Stock);

(B) If the Total Software Revenue is equal to or greater than$ 80,000,000 during the First Earnout Period, the Base Earnout Payment shall be equal to 100% of the Maximum Base Earnout Amount (i.e., 11,214,953 shares of Purchaser Common Stock); and

7

(C) If the Total Software Revenue is between $55,000,000 and $80,000,000 during the First Earnout Period, the Base Earnout Payment shall be equal to such percentage determined based on a linear pro rata basis from 50%-100% based on the extent to which the Total Software Revenue during the First Earnout Period equals between $55,000,000 and $80,000,000.

By way of illustration only, if Total Revenue Software during the First Earnout Period equals (w) $55,000,000, the Base Earnout Payment would be equal to 50% of the Maximum Base Earnout Amount or 5,607,476 shares of Purchaser Common Stock, (x) $80,000,000, the Base Earnout Payment would be equal to 100% of the Maximum Base Earnout Amount, or 11,214,953 shares of Purchaser Common Stock, (y) $70,000,000, the Base Earnout Payment would be equal to 80% of the Maximum Base Earnout Amount, or 8,971,962 shares of Purchaser Common Stock and (z) $54,000,000, the Base Earnout Payment would not be earned and would be equal to 0 shares of Purchaser Common Stock.

(ii) In addition to the Base Earnout Payment, up to 5,607,476 shares of Purchaser Common Stock (the “Maximum Excess Earnout Amount”) shall be payable by Purchaser to the Sellers if the Total Software Revenue during the First Earnout Period is greater than $80,000,000 (the “Excess Earnout Payment”), calculated as follows:

(A) If the Total Software Revenue is equal to or greater than$ 100,000,000 during the First Earnout Period, the Excess Earnout Payment shall be equal 100% of the Maximum Excess Earnout Amount (i.e., 5,607,476 shares of Purchaser Common Stock); and

(B) If the Total Software Revenue is between $80,000,000 and$ 100,000,000 during the First Earnout Period, the Excess Earnout Payment shall be equal to such percentage determined based on a linear pro rata basis from 0%-100% based on the extent to which the Total Software Revenue during the First Earnout Period equals between $80,000,000 and $100,000,000.

By way of illustration only, if Total Revenue Software during the First Earnout Period equals $90,000,000, the Excess Earnout Payment would be equal to 50% of the Maximum Excess Earnout Amount (i.e. 2,803,738 shares of Purchaser Common Stock).

(iii) In the event the Maximum Excess Earnout Amount is not earned (or not fully earned) during the First Earnout Period, the portion of the Maximum Excess Earnout Amount that is not so earned may be earned in the Second Earnout Period (i.e., if the Total Software Revenue in the First Earnout Period equals $90,000,000, then 2,803,738 shares of Purchaser Common Stock of the Excess Earnout Payment is earned for the First Earnout Period and, if in the Second Earnout Period the Total Software Revenue equals $95,000,000, an additional 1,401,869 shares of Purchaser Common Stock in excess earnout would be earned and payable for the Second Earnout Period).

(c) Review and Dispute Resolution.

(i) Within 45 days after the end of (x) the First Earnout Period and (y) in the event the Maximum Base Earnout Amount is earned, but the Maximum Excess Earnout Amount is not earned (in each case, for the First Earnout Period), the Second Earnout Period, Purchaser shall deliver to the Seller Agent a statement (each, an “Earnout Statement”) setting forth Purchaser’s good faith calculation of the (A) Total Software Revenue and (B) applicable Earnout Payment, in each case for such applicable Earnout Period and based on the principles and methodologies used to calculate Total Software Revenue in Schedule 1.7. Purchaser shall provide the Seller Agent and its Representatives reasonable access upon reasonable notice to the records, properties, personnel and (subject to the execution of customary work paper access letters if requested) auditors relating to the preparation of each Earnout Statement and shall cause its personnel to reasonably cooperate with the Seller Agent or its Representatives in connection with its review of each Earnout Statement.

8

(ii) The Seller Agent shall have 30 days within which to review an Earnout Statement after Purchaser’s delivery thereof. The Seller Agent may object to any calculation set forth in the Earnout Statement by providing written notice of such objection to Purchaser within 30 days after Purchaser’s delivery of the Earnout Statement (the “Notice of Earnout Objection”), together with the basis of its objection in reasonable detail and any supporting documentation, information and calculations. If a Notice of Earnout Objection is not provided within such 30-day period, the Earnout Statement (and each of the calculations set forth therein) shall be deemed final.

(iii) If the Seller Agent provides the Notice of Earnout Objection, then Purchaser and the Seller Agent shall confer in good faith for a period of up to 30 days following Purchaser’s receipt of the Notice of Earnout Objection in an attempt to resolve any disputed matter set forth in the Notice of Objection, and any resolution by them shall be in writing and shall be final and binding on the parties hereto.

(iv) If, after the 30-day period set forth in Section 1.7(c)(ii), Purchaser and the Seller Agent cannot resolve any matter set forth in the Notice of Earnout Objection, then Purchaser and the Seller Agent shall engage the Reviewing Accountant (or another nationally-recognized accounting firm reasonably acceptable to both Purchaser and the Seller Agent) to review only the matters in the Notice of Earnout Objection that are still disputed by Purchaser and the Seller Agent and any calculations to the extent relevant thereto. The Reviewing Accountant shall act as an expert, not as an arbitrator, in resolving matters in the Notice of Objection. The proceeding before the Reviewing Accountant shall be an expert determination under Applicable Laws governing expert determination and appraisal proceedings. All communications between the Seller Agent and Purchaser or any of their respective Representatives, on the one hand, and the Reviewing Accountant, on the other hand, shall be in writing with copies simultaneously delivered to the non-communicating party. The Reviewing Accountant shall be instructed to resolve the unresolved disputed matters in accordance with the definitions of Total Software Revenue and Earnout Payment and shall be instructed not to independently investigate any other matters. After such review and a review of the Company’s relevant books and records, the Reviewing Accountant shall promptly (and in any event within 45 days following its engagement) determine the resolution of such remaining disputed matters and render a written decision as to each disputed matter in the Notice of Earnout Objection that is submitted to the Reviewing Accountant, including a statement in reasonable detail of the basis for its determination, which determination shall (absent fraud or manifest error) be final and binding on the parties hereto. In no event shall the decision of the Reviewing Accountant provide for a calculation of any element of the Total Software Revenue or the Earnout Payment that is less than the lower calculation thereof shown in the Earnout Statement or in the Notice of Earnout Objection or greater than the higher calculation thereof shown in the Earnout Statement or in the Notice of Earnout Objection.

(v) As soon as reasonably practicable after the final determination of each Earnout Payment in accordance with this Section 1.7, subject to adjustment or withholding pursuant to Article IX, Purchaser shall cause its transfer agent to issue to each of the Sellers the portion of the applicable Earnout Payment allocated to such Seller in the Spreadsheet, in each case in accordance with this Section 1.1.

(d) During the Earnout Period, (i) Purchaser shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, (A) take, or omit to take, any action with the intent (or knowingly take, or omit to take, any action in bad faith that has the effect) of minimizing, reducing or avoiding any Earnout Payment, (B) enter into any Contract that prohibits the Earnout Payment or (C) sell or transfer a material portion of the business or assets of the Business, the Company or the Company Subsidiaries (provided that a sale or transfer of the “Digital First” or “Professional Services” segments of the Business to a third party for value in an arm’s-length transaction will be permitted), and (ii) Purchaser and its Affiliates shall maintain separate management books and records for the Business and the Company and Company Subsidiaries to the extent necessary to enable the Earnout Metrics for each applicable Earnout Period to be tracked and calculated in accordance with this Agreement.

9

(e) If a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of Purchaser or a Change of Control (collectively, a “Sale Transaction”) occurs during the Earnout Period, then (i) in the case of a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of Purchaser, Purchaser shall include, as a condition to any agreement effectuating such transaction, a provision that requires the acquiror or assignee with respect to such transaction (the “Successor Entity”) to fully assume all obligations and responsibilities of Purchaser under the terms of this Agreement with respect to the Earnout Payments, including the obligation to make any and all Earnout Payments as if the Successor Entity were the original party to this Agreement and (ii) in the case of any Sale Transaction, the Earnout Payments, if and only to the extent payable hereunder, shall be paid to Sellers in cash instead of shares of Purchaser Common Stock (such amount to be determined based on the Purchaser Stock Price).

(f) Any Earnout Payment that is issued to a Seller or shares of Purchaser Common Stock that are distributed to a Seller from the Escrow Fund more than six months after the Closing Date shall be treated as comprised of two components, respectively, a principal component and an interest component, the amounts of which shall be determined as provided in Treasury Regulations Section 1.483-4. With respect to any Purchaser Common Stock that is issued to a Seller as an Earnout Payment or in a distribution from the Escrow Fund more than six months after the Closing Date, Purchaser will use commercially reasonable efforts, in cooperation with the Seller Agent, to cause (i) the amount of Purchaser Common Stock representing the principal component (with a value equal to the principal component) and (ii) the amount of Purchaser Common Stock representing the interest component (with a value equal to the interest component) to be represented by separate certificates or book-entries, as applicable. The parties agree to file all Tax Returns consistently with the foregoing tax treatment.

(g) Acknowledgements.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein but subject to Section 1.7(d), each Seller acknowledges and agrees that: (A) Purchaser may operate the business of itself and its direct and indirect Subsidiaries (including the Company) as it determines in its sole discretion is in their best interests, subject to compliance with Applicable Law, including business decisions with respect to (1) the corporate structure of the Company, (2) the ownership and operation of the assets used in connection with the business of the Company, (3) allocation of corporate resources (including personnel and budgets) among its various product lines, regions and businesses and (4) the methods of promoting and advertising the businesses; (B) the obligations of Purchaser in respect of the Earnout Payments are only those expressly provided for in this Section 1.7, and no other express or implied covenants or duties shall apply; (C) no Person has made, and the Sellers have not relied upon, any representations or warranties regarding the Earnout Payments, except as set forth in this Section 1.7; and (D) any actions taken following the Closing by Purchaser with respect to the operation of the business or the Company which are reasonably required in order to comply with Applicable Law, shall in no event be deemed to be a, or form the basis of a claim for, breach by Purchaser of this Section 1.7.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, (i) a party hereto shall be permitted to disclose any and all terms to its financial, tax and legal advisors (each of whom is subject to a similar obligation of confidentiality), and to any Governmental Entity, stock exchange or administrative agency to the extent necessary or advisable in compliance with Applicable Law or stock exchange requirement, (ii) this Section 6.1 shall not limit the ability of any Seller or any of their respective Affiliates to disclose the financial return profile of the Transactions to any of their respective existing or potential investors, provided that, in each case, such Seller informs the Person receiving the information that such information is confidential and such Person is subject to an obligation of confidentiality at least as protective as that set forth herein and (iii) nothing herein shall prevent any party hereto from communicating with their respective employees who have a bona fide need to know with respect to this Agreement or the Transactions.

(b) The Sellers shall not, and shall cause their Representatives not to, directly or indirectly, issue any press release or other public statement relating to the terms of this Agreement or the Transactions or use Purchaser’s name or refer to Purchaser directly or indirectly in connection with Purchaser’s relationship with the Company in any media interview, advertisement, news release, press release or professional or trade publication, or in any print media, whether or not in response to an inquiry, without the prior written approval of Purchaser. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a party hereto shall be permitted to disclose any and all terms to its financial, tax and legal advisors (to the extent each of whom is subject to a similar obligation of confidentiality), and to any Governmental Entity or administrative agency to the extent necessary or advisable in compliance with Applicable Law and any Legal Proceeding before a Governmental Entity in connection with the enforcement of any right or remedy related to this Agreement to the extent such Governmental Entity legally requires such disclosure. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in the Confidentiality Agreement, Purchaser may issue such press releases or make such other public statements regarding this Agreement or the Transactions as Purchaser may, in its reasonable discretion, determine, including as may be required by Applicable Law.

The Sellers shall prepare and deliver to Purchaser a spreadsheet (the “Spreadsheet”) in the form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser, which spreadsheet shall be dated as of the Closing Date and shall set forth all of the following information (in addition to the other required data and information specified therein), as of immediately prior to the Closing:

6.4 Termination of Company 401(k) Plan. Effective as of the day immediately preceding the Closing Date, the Sellers shall cause the Company to adopt resolutions by the Board to terminate the Company 401(k) Plan. The Sellers shall provide Purchaser with evidence that the Company 401(k) Plan has been terminated (effective no later than the day immediately preceding the Closing Date) pursuant to resolutions of the Board or any applicable committee thereof. The form and substance of such resolutions shall be subject to review and approval of Purchaser. The Sellers shall cause the Company to also take such other actions in furtherance of terminating the Company 401(k) Plan as Purchaser may reasonably require. As soon as practicable following the Closing, the assets of the Company’s 401(k) Plan shall be distributed to the participants, and Purchaser shall permit the Continuing Employees who are then actively employed to make rollover contributions of “eligible rollover distributions” (within the meaning of Section 401(a)(31) of the Code, inclusive of loans to participants), in the form of cash (or, in the case of loans, notes), to an “eligible retirement plan” (within the meaning of Section 401(a)(31) of the Code) of Purchaser in an amount equal to the eligible rollover distribution portion of the account balance distributed to such Continuing Employee from the Company 401(k) Plan. With respect to matching contribution that will be made pursuant to this Section 6.4 and constitute Company Debt, an equivalent amount shall be funded as matching contribution payments by Purchaser.

6.5 401(k) Plan Correction Matters. Following the Closing, the Company shall utilize the Department of Labor’s Delinquent Filer Voluntary Compliance Program to file any and all delinquent or delayed Form 5500 filings with respect to the Company 401(k) Plan in compliance with Applicable Law. Following the Closing, the Seller Agent shall cooperate with the Company in taking any and all further actions reasonably determined by Purchaser to be necessary to correct such delinquent or delayed filings.

58

6.6 Tax Matters.

(a) Intended Tax Treatment. For U.S. federal, and applicable state and local, income tax purposes, the parties hereto intend that: (i) the Stock Purchase and the Merger, taken together, constitute a single integrated transaction as described in Revenue Ruling 2001-46, 2001-2 C.B. 321 that qualifies as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(A) of the Code and (ii) this Agreement is intended to be, and hereby is adopted as, a “plan of reorganization” (within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code and Treasury Regulations Sections 1.368-2(g) and 1.368-3) (the “Intended Tax Treatment”). No party hereto shall take any action not contemplated by this Agreement which would reasonably be expected to cause the Stock Purchase and the Merger, taken together, to fail to qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(A) of the Code, and each of the parties hereto shall file, or cause to be filed, all Tax Returns consistent with the Intended Tax Treatment unless otherwise required by a Taxing Authority following an audit or examination in which the Intended Tax Treatment was defended diligently and in good faith. Each of the parties hereto further agrees to promptly notify the other parties hereto of any challenge to the Intended Tax Treatment by any Tax Authority. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Sellers nor Purchaser makes any representations or warranties to each other or to the other parties hereto regarding the Tax treatment of this Agreement or the Transactions, or any of the Tax consequences to the Sellers or to Purchaser or to any other parties hereto of this Agreement or the Transactions. The Sellers and Purchaser acknowledge that the Purchaser and the Sellers are relying solely on their own Tax advisors in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions.

(b) Preparation of Tax Returns.

(i) Following the Closing, Purchaser (at its sole expense, taking into account, for the avoidance of doubt, the amount included in Transaction Expenses for preparation costs related to Pre-Closing Taxes) shall prepare and timely file (or cause the Company and the Company Subsidiaries to prepare and timely file) all Tax Returns of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries that are required to be filed by the Company and the Company Subsidiaries for any Pre-Closing Tax Periods or Straddle Period that are due following the Closing Date (taking into account extensions of time to file such Tax Returns) and shall pay (or cause the Company or the Company Subsidiaries to pay) all Taxes shown as due and owing on such Tax Returns (subject to Purchaser’s rights pursuant to Section 9.2(a)(ii) (in respect of Tax Representations) or Section 9.2(a)(iv)); provided that, (A) all such Tax Returns shall be prepared on a basis consistent with the Company’s past practices, unless Purchaser reasonably determines that a different treatment of any item is required by Applicable Law at a “more likely than not” or greater level of comfort; and (B) with respect to any such Tax Return for a Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period that shows an amount due and owing thereon and which is the responsibility of Sellers pursuant to Section 9.2(a)(ii) (in respect of Tax Representations) or Section 9.2(a)(iv), Purchaser shall provide the Seller Agent with a copy of such completed Tax Return at least 30 days prior to the due date (including any extension thereof) for filing of the applicable Tax Return (or at least 10 days prior to the due date (including any extension thereof) if such Tax Return is a non-income Tax Return or as soon as reasonably practicable if such Tax Return is due within 30 or 10 days, as applicable, of Closing) for the Seller Agent’s review and comment. Purchaser shall consider in good faith all reasonable comments received from the Seller Agent with respect to such Tax Return prior to filing such Tax Return, and Purchaser shall not file, or cause to be filed, such Tax Return without first obtaining the Seller Agent’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided, however, Seller Agent’s consent will be deemed not to be reasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed to the extent that Seller Agent refuses to consent to a position that is “more likely than not” correct.

(ii) For clarity and without limiting the generality of Section 6.6(b)(i), following the Closing, Purchaser may prepare and file (or cause the Company and the Company Subsidiaries to prepare and file) any unfiled original income Tax Returns of Amelia NL BV and Amelia Japan KK that it reasonably determines are required to be filed for any Pre-Closing Tax Periods and shall pay (or cause the Company or the Company Subsidiaries to pay) all Taxes shown as due and owing on such income Tax Returns (subject to Purchaser’s rights pursuant to Section 9.2(a)(ii) (in respect of Tax Representations) or Section 9.2(a)(iv)); provided that, (A) all such income Tax Returns shall be prepared on a basis consistent with the Company’s past practices, unless Purchaser reasonably determines that a different treatment of any item is required by Applicable Law at a “more likely than not” or greater level of comfort; and (B) with respect to any such income Tax Return that shows an amount due and owing thereon and which is the responsibility of Sellers pursuant to Section 9.2(a)(ii) (in respect of Tax Representations) or Section 9.2(a)(iv), Purchaser shall provide the Seller Agent with a copy of such completed income Tax Return at least 30 days prior to the filing of the applicable income Tax Return for the Seller Agent’s review and comment. Purchaser shall consider in good faith all reasonable comments received from the Seller Agent with respect to such income Tax Return prior to filing such income Tax Return, and Purchaser shall not file, or cause to be filed, such income Tax Return without first obtaining the Seller Agent’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided, however, Seller Agent’s consent will be deemed not to be reasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed to the extent that Seller Agent refuses to consent to a position that is “more likely than not” correct.

59

(c) Tax Cooperation and Exchange of Information. Following the Closing, each of Purchaser and the Sellers shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by any of the others, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns, the preparation of any tax opinion with respect to the Stock Purchase, the Merger or other Transactions and any Legal Proceeding with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon request therefor) the provision of records and information reasonably relevant to any such Legal Proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. Purchaser and the Sellers agree to retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Company relating to any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until expiration of the statute of limitations of the respective taxable periods, and to abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any Tax Authority.

(d) Tax Contests.

(i) After the Closing, Purchaser shall promptly deliver a written notice to the Seller Agent in writing following any demand, claim, or notice of commencement of a claim, proposed adjustment, assessment, audit, examination or other administrative or court action with respect to Taxes of the Company or any Company Subsidiary for which the Sellers may reasonably be expected to be liable for indemnification under Section 9.2(a)(ii) (in respect of Tax Representations) or Section 9.2(a)(iv) (each, a “Tax Contest”, and such written notice, a “Tax Claim Notice”); provided that the failure or delay to so notify the Seller Agent shall not relieve the Sellers of any obligation or liability that the Sellers may have to Purchaser, unless the Sellers are actually prejudiced thereby.

(ii) Purchaser shall control the conduct of any Tax Contest; provided, however, that Purchaser shall, and shall cause the Company and any Company Subsidiary to, (A) keep the Seller Agent reasonably informed as to the status of the Tax Contest and use reasonable efforts to allow the Seller Agent to provide comments on any response before submitting it to the applicable Tax Authority, and (B) with respect to any settlement or compromise of such Tax Contest that would be reasonably expected to be indemnifiable by the Sellers pursuant to Section 9.2(a)(ii) (in respect of Tax Representations) or Section 9.2(a)(iv) (taking into account, for the avoidance of doubt, the limitations to the indemnification obligation of the Sellers under Section 9.3), Purchaser shall not settle or compromise such Tax Contest without first seeking to obtain the Seller Agent’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) to the settlement or compromise; provided, that if Purchaser settles or compromises such Tax Contest without the Seller’s Agent’s consent, such a settlement or resolution of the Tax Contest will not in itself be determinative of the existence of Indemnifiable Damages.

(iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the procedures for all Tax Contests shall be governed exclusively by this Section 6.6(d).

60

(e) Straddle Period Allocations. For purposes of this Agreement, in the case of Taxes that are payable with respect to a Straddle Period (other than Transfer Taxes), the portion of any such Tax that is allocable to the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be:

(i) in the case of Taxes that are either (i) based upon or related to income or receipts or (ii) imposed in connection with any sale or other transfer or assignment of property (real or personal, tangible or intangible), deemed equal to the amount which would be payable (after giving effect to amounts which may be deducted from or offset against such Taxes) if the taxable period ended as of the close of business on the Closing Date based on an interim closing of the books; provided that exemptions, allowances or deductions that are calculated on an annual basis (including, but not limited to, depreciation and amortization deductions) shall be allocated between the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date, on the one hand, and the portion of the Straddle Period beginning after the Closing Date, on the other hand, in proportion to the number of days in such Straddle Period included in the portion ending on the Closing Date and the number of days in such Straddle Period included in the portion beginning after the Closing Date;

(ii) in the case of Taxes not described in clause (i), deemed to be the amount of such Taxes for the entire Straddle Period (after giving effect to amounts which may be deducted from or offset against such Taxes) (or, in the case of such Taxes determined on an arrears basis, the amount of such Taxes for the immediately preceding period), multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the Pre-Closing Tax Period and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire Straddle Period. In the case of any Tax based upon or measured by capital (including net worth or long-term debt) or intangibles, any amount thereof required to be allocated under this Section 6.6(e) shall be computed by reference to the level of such items on the Closing Date; and

(iii) for purposes of clause (vi) of the definition of “Pre-Closing Taxes”, an amount of income required to be included under Section 951(a)(1) or 951A(a) of the Code with respect to any Straddle Period of a Company Subsidiary that is a “controlled foreign corporation” (within the meaning of Section 957(a) of the Code) (a “CFC”) in which the Company was a “United States shareholder” (within the meaning of Section 951(b) of the Code) (a “U.S. Shareholder”) as of the Closing, the taxable year of such Company Subsidiary shall be deemed to close as of the close of business on the Closing Date, and the amount of income required to be included under Section 951(a)(1) or Section 951A(a) of the Code to be allocated to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date shall be determined by means of a closing of the books of such Company Subsidiary as of the close of business on the Closing Date; provided that any non-U.S. Taxes allowed to Purchaser as a credit on a “more likely than not” basis in respect of any amount required to be included under Section 951(a)(1) or Section 951A(a) of the Code shall be equitably allocated between the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date and the portion of the Straddle Period beginning after the Closing Date based upon the allocation of taxable income of such Company Subsidiary between such portions of the Straddle Period, which shall be allocated based upon the closing of the books of such Company Subsidiary as of the close of business on the Closing Date in the same manner as described in this Section 6.6(e)(iii).

(iv) All determinations necessary to effect the foregoing allocations shall be made in a manner consistent with prior practice of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, except as otherwise required by applicable law. Any credit or refund resulting from an overpayment of Taxes for a Straddle Period shall be prorated based upon the method employed in this Section 6.6(e), taking into account the type of Tax to which the refund relates.

61

(f) Tax Refunds. Any Tax refund or credit in lieu thereof (including any interest paid or credited by a Tax Authority with respect thereto) of the Company or any Company Subsidiary of Taxes paid by the Company or a Company Subsidiary on or prior to the Closing Date and not reflected as an asset in the computation of Company Net Working Capital or taken into account in the computation of Company Debt shall be the property of the Sellers, and if received or actually utilized by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates to reduce their cash Taxes payable, the amount of such Tax refund or the cash Tax savings actually resulting from the utilization of such Tax credit (less any Taxes or reasonable, out-of-pocket costs or expenses incurred by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates in connection with the pursuit or receipt of any such Tax refund or utilization of such Tax credit) that is received by Purchaser prior to the end of the Tax Escrow Period shall be paid over promptly to the Seller Agent for distribution to the applicable Seller(s). Purchaser shall, if the Seller Agent so requests and at the Sellers’ expense, cause the Company and any Company Subsidiary or other relevant entity to file for any such Tax refund to which the Sellers are entitled under this Section 6.6(f) except to the extent it would have any adverse effect on Purchaser or its Affiliates (including the Company and any Company Subsidiary) or subject Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including the Company and any Company Subsidiary) to any unreimbursed cost or expense. The parties hereto agree to treat (and cause their respective Affiliates to treat) any payment made pursuant to this Section 6.6(f) as an adjustment to the Aggregate Consideration for all Tax purposes to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law.

(g) Tax Covenants. From and after the Closing, except as determined by Purchaser to be necessary to cause the Company’s prior Tax Return positions to be “more likely than not” correct after consultation in good faith with Seller Agent, without the consent of the Seller Agent, Purchaser shall not, and shall not cause or permit its Affiliates (including, following the Closing, the Company and any Company Subsidiary) to (i) file a Tax Return of the Company or any Company Subsidiary for a Pre- Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period in a jurisdiction where such Person has not previously filed a Tax Return (other than a Tax Return prepared in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6.6(b) or Section 6.6(j)), (ii) amend, refile or otherwise modify (or grant an extension of any statute of limitations with respect to) any Tax Return of the Company or any Company Subsidiary for any Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period, (iii) enter into any voluntary disclosure Tax program, agreement or arrangement with any Tax Authority that relates to the Taxes of the Company or any Company Subsidiary for any Pre- Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period (other than a voluntary disclosure Tax program, agreement or arrangement completed in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6.6(j)), (iv) cause or permit the Company to take any action on the Closing Date and after the Closing that is outside the ordinary course of business not contemplated by this Agreement or (v) make any election (including an election under Sections 338(g) or 336(e) of the Code) that has retroactive effect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period of the Company or any Company Subsidiary, in each case, if such action is reasonably expected to (A) create or increase a Tax liability of the Sellers (or their direct or indirect owners) or any of their Affiliates, (B) create or increase an indemnification obligation of the Sellers for Taxes pursuant to this Agreement or (C) result in a reduction to, or loss of, a Tax refund or credit that the Sellers are entitled to receive under Section 6.6(f).

(h) Each Seller further agrees, upon request, to use its reasonable best efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any Governmental Entity or any other Person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any Tax that could be imposed with respect to the Stock Purchase or other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(i) If a notice of deficiency or adverse Tax assessment or demand is received by the Company from the competent Governmental Entity under Applicable Law that may require any payment or settlement of a Tax claim, the Company undertakes to, and is required to, fulfill and make good any Tax payable or amounts outstanding, and pursue all such other measures, so as not to have the Transaction be treated as void or disputable by such Governmental Entity under Applicable Law.

62

(j) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, following the Closing, Purchaser, on behalf of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, shall have the right to contact the state and local Tax Authorities in the Relevant States with respect to state and local Sales Taxes reasonably determined to be owed by the Company or any Company Subsidiary in such states for Pre- Closing Tax Periods and enter into a “voluntary disclosure agreement” or other similar program or a “quiet disclosure” with any such Tax Authority with respect to such Sales Taxes (each, a “Sales Tax Disclosure”). Purchaser shall have the right to control in any process or proceeding (including the preparation and filing of sales and use Tax Returns) relating to any Sales Tax Disclosure; provided that: (i)(A) Purchaser shall retain BDO LLP or another accounting or law firm that is reasonably satisfactory to the Seller Agent to evaluate, consider and complete any such Sales Tax Disclosure; (B) shall keep the Seller Agent reasonably informed as to the status of any such Sales Tax Disclosure, and (C) shall provide the Seller Agent the opportunity to review and comment on the applicable method for any such Sales Tax Disclosure and any sales and use Tax Return or other written submission before submitting it to the applicable Tax Authority, and accept any reasonable comments of the Seller Agent with respect thereto; and (ii) with respect to any Tax Contest arising from any Sales Tax Disclosure, the provisions of Section 6.6(d) shall control.

6.7 Director and Officer Indemnification.

(a) Until the sixth anniversary of the Closing Date, Purchaser will, and will cause the Company and each Company Subsidiary, to fulfill and honor in all respects the obligations of the Company and each such Company Subsidiary, as applicable, to its present and former directors and officers as of immediately prior to the Closing (the “Company Indemnified Parties”) pursuant to indemnification agreements with the Company or such Company Subsidiary in effect on the Agreement Date and set forth in Section 2.17(xv) of the Seller Disclosure Letter and pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation or, so long as made available to Purchaser, other organizational documents of the Company or such Company Subsidiary, as applicable, in effect on the Agreement Date (the “Company Indemnification Provisions”), with respect to claims relating to or arising out of acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Closing that are asserted after the Closing; provided that Purchaser’s and the Company’s obligations under this Section 6.7(a) shall not apply to any claim based on a matter for which any Indemnified Person is entitled to an indemnification pursuant to Article IX; provided, further, that all rights to indemnification and exculpation in respect of any claim arising out of or relating to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Closing Date and asserted or made within such six (6)-year period shall continue until the final disposition of such claim. Purchaser shall ensure that such Company Indemnification Provisions are not amended or otherwise modified in any manner that would adversely affect the rights of any Company Indemnified Parties, unless such modification is required by Applicable Law or approved in writing by such Company Indemnified Parties.

(b) At or prior to the Closing, the Sellers shall cause the Company to purchase tail insurance coverage (the “Tail Insurance Coverage”) for the Company Indemnified Parties in a form reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser, which shall provide the Company Indemnified Parties with coverage for six years following the Closing Date.

(c) In the event that all or substantially all of the assets of the Company or any Company Subsidiary are sold, whether in one transaction or a series of transactions, then Purchaser and the Company or such Company Subsidiary, as applicable, will, in each such case, use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the successors and assigns of the Company or such Company Subsidiary, as applicable, assume the obligations set forth in this Section 6.7.

(d) The provisions of this Section 6.7 are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by each Company Indemnified Parties, his or her heirs and representatives and may not be amended, altered or repealed without the prior written consent of the affected Company Indemnified Party.

63

6.8 Employees and Contractors.

(a) Following the Closing, Purchaser shall provide certain Continuing Employees with the right to participate in a pool of retention equity awards to be valued (pursuant to Purchaser’s standard methodology for valuing equity awards) at $20,000,000 in the aggregate (the “Employee Retention Pool”), based on the Purchaser Stock Price. The Employee Retention Pool shall be allocated in the sole discretion of Purchaser following consultation with the Seller Agent.

(b) For a period of 12 months from the Closing, and in each case to the extent required by Applicable Law, Purchaser shall provide or cause to be provided to each Continuing Employee (i) an annual base salary (or wage level, as applicable) no less favorable than that provided by the Purchaser to similarly situated employees of the Purchaser and (ii) the opportunity to participate in Purchaser’s benefit plans, with benefits that in the aggregate are commensurate with the benefits provided to similarly situated employees of Purchaser. To the extent permitted by the applicable Purchaser health and welfare benefit plans (without any modifications thereto), Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to waive all limitations as to pre-existing conditions, exclusions and waiting periods with respect to participation and coverage requirements applicable to the Continuing Employees, to the extent that such conditions, exclusions and waiting periods would not apply under a similar Company Employee Plan in which such employees participated prior to the Closing Date. To the extent permitted by the applicable Purchaser health and welfare benefit plans (without any modifications thereto), Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide all Continuing Employees with credit for all service with the Company performed at any time prior to the Closing Date under all employee benefit plans, programs, policies and arrangements and employment policies maintained by Purchaser in which they become participants to the extent such service was taken into account under the analogous Company Employee Plan immediately prior to the Closing Date; provided that no such prior service shall be taken into account to the extent that it would result in the duplication of benefits to any Continuing Employee.

(c) The Sellers shall cause the Company to give all notices and other information required to be given to the employees of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, any collective bargaining unit representing any group of employees of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries, and any applicable government authority under the WARN Act, the National Labor Relations Act, as amended, the Code, COBRA and any other Applicable Law in connection with the Transactions.

6.9 R&W Policy. On the Agreement Date, Purchaser has entered into a binder agreement providing for the issuance of an insurance policy with respect to the representations and warranties of the Sellers under this Agreement and Taxes of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries arising from or relating to the Pre-Closing Tax Periods, the form of which has been provided to the Seller Agent (the “R&W Policy”) and caused the binder agreement for the R&W Policy to be bound effective as of the Agreement Date. Purchaser and its Affiliates shall not amend, waive or otherwise modify the R&W Policy in any manner that would reasonably be expected to adversely affect the Sellers without the prior written consent of the Seller Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), including any amendment that would allow the insurer thereunder or any other Person to subrogate or otherwise make or bring any claim or suit against any Seller or any of their respective Affiliates or any past, present or future Representatives, if applicable, of any of the foregoing based upon, arising out of, or related to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement, except, in each case, in the event of Fraud.

6.10 The Merger. Promptly after the Closing, Purchaser shall effect the Merger in accordance with, and pursuant to, the Applicable Laws of the State of Delaware, pursuant to which the Company will merge with and into Purchaser Sub, the separate corporate existence of the Company shall cease, and Purchaser Sub shall be the surviving entity and remain a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Purchaser treated as a disregarded entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

(b) BuildGroup LLC hereby acknowledges that it may hereafter discover facts in addition to or different from those that it knows or believes to be true with respect to the subject matter of any Claims of BuildGroup LLC released pursuant to this Section 6.12 (the “Released Claims”), but, effective upon the Agreement Date, to the extent permitted by applicable law, BuildGroup LLC hereby expressly fully, finally, irrevocably, and forever settles and releases, and shall hereby be deemed to have fully, finally, irrevocably, and forever settled and released, any and all such Released Claims, whether direct or derivative, known or unknown, accrued or unaccrued, suspected or unsuspected, contingent or absolute, real or imagined, matured or unmatured, that now exist or heretofore have existed, upon any theory of law or equity now existing or coming into existence in the future, including conduct that is negligent, reckless, intentional, with or without malice, or breach of any duty, law, or rule, without regard to the subsequent discovery or existence of such different or additional facts. Further, BuildGroup LLC shall have and be deemed to have waived and relinquished, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any and all provisions, rights, and benefits conferred by Section 1542 of the California Civil Code or any federal, state, or foreign law, rule, regulation or common law doctrine that is similar, comparable, equivalent, or identical to, or that has the effect of, Section 1542 of the California Civil Code, which provides:

A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS THAT THE CREDITOR OR RELEASING PARTY DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE AND THAT, IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER, WOULD HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR OR RELEASED PARTY.

Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 1542 and any similar provisions, rights, and benefits conferred by any law, rule, regulation, or common law doctrine of California or in any federal, state, or foreign jurisdiction, BuildGroup LLC understands and agrees that this Section is intended to include all the claims that any person granting a release pursuant to this Section 6.12 has or may have, including unknown claims.

65

(c) Effective upon the Agreement Date, Sellers, on the one hand, shall not initiate any lawsuit, arbitration, or proceeding, or otherwise bring any claim, in court, in an agency, or elsewhere, whether at law, in equity, by way of administrative hearing, or otherwise solicit others to institute any such actions, claims, or proceedings against the Purchaser Releasees, on the other hand, that directly or indirectly concerns, involves, relates to, arises from, or is based upon any of the Released Claims.

(d) In the event that BuildGroup LLC breaches a covenant not to sue in this Section 6.12, Purchaser Releasees will have no adequate remedy at law and shall be entitled to injunctive relief.

Within 10 Business Days from the Closing, (a) Purchaser and the Seller Agent shall enter into an escrow agent agreement (the “Escrow Agreement”) with PNC Bank acting as an escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”) and (b) Purchaser shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, into an account established pursuant to the Escrow Agreement (the “Escrow Account”), a number of shares of Purchaser Common Stock equal to the Escrow Amount. Any distribution of the shares of Purchaser Common Stock from the Escrow Account shall be made solely pursuant to joint written instructions of Purchaser and the Seller Agent to the Escrow Agent or based on a final, non-appealable award or order of a court of competent jurisdiction. Any expense related to the Escrow Agent and the Escrow Account shall be paid evenly by the Seller Agent (on behalf of the Sellers), on the one hand, and the Purchaser, on the other hand.

(a) Deductible. Except for claims pursuant to Section 9.2(a)(vi) in the event of Company Fraud, the Sellers shall have no liability for any General Representation Matter or General Seller Representation Matter unless and until the aggregate Indemnification Obligations for Indemnifiable Damages arising out of, resulting from or in connection with all General Representation Matters and General Seller Representation Matters exceed $510,000 in the aggregate (the “Deductible”). For clarity, if the aggregate Indemnification Obligations for Indemnifiable Damages arising out of, resulting from or in connection with all General Representation Matters and General Seller Representation Matters exceed the Deductible, then the Indemnification Obligations for such matters will only include such Indemnifiable Damages in excess of the Deductible.

69

(b) Caps. Except with respect to an Equityholder Action Matter, the Indemnification Obligations of each Seller will be capped at the aggregate amount of the Aggregate Consideration such Seller actually receives (on a gross basis and not net of Taxes, excluding the “Lender Shares” and including the “Transfer Shares,” if any, as each are defined under that certain Letter Agreement, dated as of the Agreement Date, between Affiliates of Monroe Capital, LLC, the Company, and BuildGroup LLC (the “Letter Agreement”)) pursuant to this Agreement; provided that, except for claims pursuant to Section 9.2(a)(vi) in the event of Company Fraud, the aggregate Indemnification Obligations of each Seller for Indemnifiable Damages arising out of, resulting from or in connection with all General Representation Matters and all of such Seller’s General Seller Representation Matters will be capped at, and no Seller will have any liability under Section 9.2(a)(i) or (b)(i) in excess of, such Seller’s Pro Rata Share of the Indemnity Escrow Amount. For the avoidance of doubt, Indemnification Obligations for the General Representation Matters and the General Seller Representation Matters (except for claims pursuant to Section 9.2(a)(vi) in the event of Company Fraud) shall be satisfied solely from the Indemnity Escrow Fund.

(c) Survival; Claims Periods. The Indemnification Obligations of the Sellers in respect of (i) General Representation Matters and General Seller Representation Matters will continue with respect to all Officer’s Certificates in respect thereof delivered to the Seller Agent on or prior to the end of the Indemnity Escrow Period, and (ii) Fundamental Indemnification Matters will continue with respect to all Officer’s Certificates in respect thereof delivered to the Seller Agent on or prior to the date that is the earlier of (A) six years following the Closing Date and (B) the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (as applicable to such matter, the “Claims Period”). For clarity, the (A) General Representations and the General Seller Representations shall survive the Closing only until, and shall expire on, and no claim shall be made in respect thereof as of and following, the end of the Indemnity Escrow Period, and (B) the Fundamental Representations, Tax Representations, and the Fundamental Seller Representations shall survive the Closing only until, and shall expire on, and no claim shall be made in respect thereof as of and following, the earlier of (1) the six-year anniversary of the Closing Date and (2) the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations; provided that, if an Indemnified Person delivers an Officer’s Certificate to the Seller Agent prior to the end of the applicable Claims Period, then (x) the Indemnification Obligations of the Sellers with respect to the indemnification claims in such Officer’s Certificate will continue until the claims set forth in such Officer’s Certificate (as may be amended pursuant to Section 9.5(b)) are finally resolved in accordance with Section 9.5 and (y) the Indemnification Obligations of the Sellers with respect to such claims in such Officer’s Certificate will not be affected by the expiration of any representation, warranty or covenant.

(d) Mitigation. Purchaser acknowledges the common law duty to mitigate damages that exists under the laws of the State of Delaware, with which Purchaser will comply. The Indemnified Persons shall use commercially reasonable efforts to recover any Indemnifiable Damages from the insurance policies of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries.

70

(e) Satisfaction of Indemnification Claims.

(i) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, but subject in all cases to all applicable limitations contained herein, after the Closing, (A) the sole and exclusive remedy of the Indemnified Persons with respect to the General Representation Matters and the General Seller Representation Matters (except in the event of Company Fraud) shall be against the Indemnity Escrow Fund and the R&W Policy as follows: (1) first, from the Indemnity Escrow Fund until, to the extent covered by the R&W Policy, the “Retention” as set forth in Item 6 of the R&W Policy (the “Retention”) is eroded in full, (2) second, to the extent such Indemnifiable Damages are covered as a “Loss” as set forth in Section 2.1 of the R&W Policy (an “Insured Loss”), from the R&W Policy and (3) third, to the extent such Indemnifiable Damages are not Insured Losses or such Indemnifiable Damages exceed the “Limit of Liability” under the R&W Policy (and only with respect to such excess amount), from the Indemnity Escrow Fund until the Indemnity Escrow Fund has been depleted or released, (B) with respect to any Indemnification Obligations for any Indemnifiable Damages arising out of, resulting from or in connection with the Specified Matters, the Indemnified Persons’ sole and exclusive source of recourse shall be to recover any such Indemnifiable Damages, subject to and in accordance with this Article IX, (1) first, from the Special Escrow Fund until the Special Escrow Fund has been depleted or released, (2) second, from the Indemnity Escrow Fund until the Indemnity Escrow Fund has been depleted or released, and (3) third, from the Sellers (on a several Pro Rata Share basis) in accordance with this Article IX, (C) with respect to any Indemnification Obligations for any Indemnifiable Damages arising out of, resulting from or in connection with Section 9.2(a)(iv) for the Tax Matter, the Indemnified Persons’ sole and exclusive source of recourse shall be to recover any such Indemnifiable Damages, subject to and in accordance with this Article IX, (1) first, from the Tax Escrow Fund until the Tax Escrow Fund has been depleted or released, (2) second, from the Indemnity Escrow Fund until the Indemnity Escrow Fund has been depleted or released, and (3) third, from the Sellers (on a several Pro Rata Share basis) in accordance with this Article IX, and (D) with respect to any Indemnification Obligations for any Indemnifiable Damages arising out of, resulting from or in connection with any other Indemnifiable Matters, the Indemnified Persons’ sole and exclusive source of recourse shall be to recover any such Indemnifiable Damages, subject to and in accordance with this Article IX, (1) first, from the Indemnity Escrow Fund until, to the extent covered by the R&W Policy, the Retention is eroded in full, (2) second, to the extent such Indemnifiable Damages are Insured Losses, from the R&W Policy and, (3) third, to the extent such Indemnifiable Damages are not Insured Losses or such Indemnifiable Damages exceed the “Limit of Liability” under the R&W Policy (and only with respect to such excess amount), from the Indemnity Escrow Fund until the Indemnity Escrow Fund has been depleted or released, and (4) fourth, from the Sellers (on a several Pro Rata Share basis) in accordance with this Article IX; provided that, to the extent the Indemnified Persons seek recovery from the Indemnity Escrow Fund solely in satisfaction of the Personal Indemnification Obligations of a Seller, then such recovery will be limited to the Escrow Pro Rata Share of such Seller at the time of such recovery. With respect to any Indemnification Obligations arising out of, resulting from or in connection with any Personal Indemnification Matters (other than the General Seller Representation Matters), Purchaser (on behalf of Indemnified Persons) (x) may elect to recover any such Indemnifiable Damages from the applicable Seller’s Escrow Pro Rata Share of the Indemnity Escrow Fund and (y) if such Indemnifiable Damages are Insured Losses, shall first seek recourse against R&W Policy, and to the extent such Indemnifiable Damages exceed the “Limit of Liability” (and only with respect to such excess amount), seek recourse against the applicable Seller. If any Indemnified Person knowingly fails to seek the consent of the “Insurer” (as defined in the R&W Policy) under the R&W Policy, which consent is required under the terms of the R&W Policy and such failure to so seek such consent directly results in a loss of coverage under the R&W Policy for any Indemnifiable Damage, then such Indemnified Person shall have no right to recover from the Sellers, and the Sellers shall have no Liability hereunder for, such Indemnifiable Damages; provided that if the “Insurer” (as defined in the R&W Policy) unreasonably withholds, conditions or delays consent, this limitation does not apply.

(ii) Subject to the caps set forth in Section 9.3(b) and the other applicable limitations in this Article IX, if the shares of Purchaser Common Stock then held in the Indemnity Escrow Fund, the Tax Escrow Fund or the Special Escrow Fund, as applicable, are insufficient to satisfy in whole the amount of Indemnifiable Damages that become payable by a Seller to the Indemnified Persons pursuant to this Article IX, then such Seller shall, as promptly as practicable (and in any event within 10 Business Days) following the date such amount becomes payable pursuant to this Article IX, pay to the Indemnified Person its Pro Rata Indemnification Share of such shortfall or, if such Seller has not made such payment within 10 Business Days following the date such amount becomes payable pursuant to this Article IX, Purchaser may, at its election, setoff and reduce the Earnout Consideration payable to such Seller in lieu of such payment by such Seller. For all purposes of this Article IX, each share of Purchaser Common Stock held in the Escrow Fund or payable as Earnout Consideration shall be valued at the Purchaser Stock Price.

(f) Insurance. Indemnifiable Damages shall be calculated net of (i) (A) actual recoveries under existing insurance policies and (B) actual recoveries under applicable third-party indemnification obligations (in each case, net of any reasonable and documented actual collection costs, deductibles and increases in insurance premiums incurred in obtaining such recoveries), and, if the Indemnified Persons or any of their respective Affiliates receives such recovery after receipt of payment from the Sellers, then the amount of such recovery (net of any reasonable and documented actual collection costs, deductibles and increases in insurance premiums incurred in obtaining such recoveries) shall be paid to the indemnifying Sellers; and (ii) any amount included in the final Upfront Consideration with respect to, or attributable to, any such Indemnifiable Damages.

71

(g) Earnout. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Purchaser may withhold from the Earnout Consideration, if such Earnout Consideration is earned pursuant to Section 1.7, an amount that is determined, in the reasonable judgment of Purchaser, to be necessary to satisfy all unsatisfied or disputed claims for indemnification specified in any Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Seller Agent on or prior to the date on which the Earnout Payment is required to be paid in accordance with Article I and within the time period required under Article IX, other than any such claim for a Personal Indemnification Matter (which may only be withheld from the portion of the Earnout Consideration otherwise payable to such Seller). Any portion of the Earnout Consideration withheld with respect to any such pending but unresolved claim for indemnification that is not awarded to Purchaser or any other Indemnified Persons upon the resolution of such claim in accordance with this Article IX shall be promptly distributed to the Sellers within 10 Business Days following resolution of such claim in accordance with the allocation of such Earnout Consideration in the Spreadsheet.

(h) Tax Indemnity Limitations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in no event shall the Sellers be responsible for a claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 9.2(a)(ii) (in respect of Tax Representations) or Section 9.2(a)(iv) to the extent that such claim arises out of, or results from or in connection with: (i) any Tax imposed with respect to the Company or any Company Subsidiary to the extent that any such Tax was taken into account in the final calculation of Company Debt, Company Net Working Capital or Transaction Expenses, (ii) any Taxes imposed on the Company or any Company Subsidiary related to the portion of any prepaid income received prior to the Closing to the extent that the amount of such prepaid income was offset by liabilities reflected in the final calculation of Company Debt or Company Net Working Capital, (iii) any Taxes imposed on the Company or any Company Subsidiary which arise from any action taken by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including the Company or any Company Subsidiary) occurring on the Closing Date, but after the Closing, that is outside of the ordinary course of business (other than a transaction that is expressly contemplated under this Agreement).

(i) Damages. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Sellers shall not have any Liability under any provision of this Agreement for, and Indemnifiable Damages shall not include, any punitive damages, except to the extent actually awarded and paid or payable by an Indemnified Person to a third party in respect of a third-party claim. The Sellers shall not have any Liability for the same Indemnifiable Damages more than once even if a claim for such Indemnifiable Damages could be brought under more than one indemnity provision hereunder.

9.4 Escrow Fund.

(a) At the Closing, Purchaser shall withhold the Adjustment Escrow Amount, the Indemnity Escrow Amount, the Tax Escrow Amount, and the Special Escrow Amount from the Upfront Stock Consideration issuable pursuant to Section 1.1(a) (the aggregate amount of shares of Purchaser Common Stock so held by Purchaser from time to time, the “Adjustment Escrow Fund,” the “Indemnity Escrow Fund,” the “Tax Escrow Fund,” and the “Special Escrow Fund” respectively, and together, the “Escrow Fund”) and deposit such shares of Purchaser Common Stock in the Escrow Account in accordance with Article I. The Adjustment Escrow Fund shall be available to compensate Purchaser (on behalf of itself or any other Indemnified Person) for any Upfront Consideration Shortfall determined pursuant to Section 1.6. The Indemnity Escrow Fund shall be available to compensate Purchaser (on behalf of itself or any other Indemnified Person) for any Upfront Consideration Shortfall determined pursuant to Section 1.6 and Indemnifiable Damages pursuant to this Article IX. The Tax Escrow Fund shall be available to compensate Purchaser (on behalf of itself or any other Indemnified Person) for any Indemnifiable Damages arising out of, resulting from or in connection with Section 9.2(a)(iv) for the Tax Matter. The Special Escrow Fund shall be available to compensate Purchaser (on behalf of itself or any other Indemnified Person) for any Indemnifiable Damages arising out of, resulting from or in connection with the Specified Matters.

72

(b) Distributions from the Escrow Account of the Indemnity Escrow Fund, the Tax Escrow Fund, and the Special Escrow Fund shall only be made pursuant to, (i) Section 9.4(c), (ii) Section 9.3(e)(i), (iii) a joint agreement executed by each of Purchaser and the Seller Agent or (iv) a final, non- appealable award or order of a court of competent jurisdiction in compliance with Section 10.11, and otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement. All amounts released from the Indemnity Escrow Fund, the Tax Escrow Fund, and the Special Escrow Fund to the Sellers shall be made in accordance with such Seller’s Escrow Pro Rata Share at the time of such release.

(c) Promptly (and in any event within 10 Business Days) after the end of the Indemnity Escrow Period, Purchaser and the Seller Agent shall provide a joint written instruction to the Escrow Agent to distribute to each Seller such Seller’s Escrow Pro Rata Share of the Indemnity Escrow Fund, less that portion of the Indemnity Escrow Fund that is determined, in the reasonable judgment of Purchaser, to be necessary to satisfy all unsatisfied or unresolved claims for indemnification specified in any Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Seller Agent in good faith on or prior to the end of the Indemnity Escrow Period in accordance with this Article IX, which portion shall remain in the Indemnity Escrow Fund until such claims for Indemnifiable Damages have been resolved or satisfied. At any time following the end of the Indemnity Escrow Period, the Tax Escrow Period or the Special Escrow Period, as applicable, to the extent the number of shares of Purchaser Common Stock held in the Indemnity Escrow Fund, Tax Escrow Fund or the Special Escrow Fund, as applicable, exceeds the number of shares that is determined, in the reasonable judgment of Purchaser and the Seller Agent, to be necessary to satisfy all unsatisfied or unresolved claims for indemnification specified in any Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Seller Agent on or prior to the end of the Indemnity Escrow Period, the Tax Escrow Period or the Special Escrow Period, as applicable, in accordance with this Section 9.4, based on the Purchaser Stock Price, Purchaser and the Seller Agent shall provide a joint written instruction to the Escrow Agent to promptly distribute the excess shares of Purchaser Common Stock to the Sellers in accordance with such Seller’s Escrow Pro Rata Share. Promptly (and in any event within 10 Business Days) after the end of the period of time beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the date that is 48 months following the Closing Date (or, as the case may be, such earlier date that (i) any Tax Matter has been finally resolved or the applicable statutes of limitation have expired and (ii) Indemnifiable Damages arising out of, resulting from or in connection with such Tax Matters have been recovered by the Indemnified Person(s)) (the “Tax Escrow Period”), Purchaser and the Seller Agent shall provide a joint written instruction to the Escrow Agent to distribute to each Seller such Seller’s Escrow Pro Rata Share of the Tax Escrow Fund, less that portion of the Tax Escrow Fund that is determined, in the reasonable judgment of Purchaser, to be necessary to satisfy all unsatisfied or unresolved claims for indemnification specified in any Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Seller Agent in good faith on or prior to the end of such period in accordance with this Article IX, which portion shall remain in the Tax Escrow Fund until such claims for Indemnifiable Damages have been resolved or satisfied. Promptly (and in any event within 10 Business Days) after the end of the period of time beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the date that is 24 months following the Closing Date (or, if earlier, the date on which all Specified Matters have been finally resolved) (the “Special Escrow Period”), Purchaser and the Seller Agent shall provide a joint written instruction to the Escrow Agent to distribute to each Seller such Seller’s Escrow Pro Rata Share of the Special Escrow Fund, less that portion of the Special Escrow Fund that is determined, in the reasonable judgment of Purchaser, to be necessary to satisfy all unsatisfied or unresolved claims for indemnification specified in any Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Seller Agent in good faith on or prior to the end of such period in accordance with this Article IX, which portion shall remain in the Special Escrow Fund until such claims for Indemnifiable Damages have been resolved or satisfied.

9.5 Claims.

(a) If Purchaser has determined that any matter has given or could give rise to a right of indemnification under this Article IX, then Purchaser shall promptly, and in any event no later than the last day of the applicable Claims Period, deliver to the Seller Agent a certificate signed by any officer of Purchaser (an “Officer’s Certificate”):

(i) (A) stating that an Indemnified Person has incurred, suffered, paid, reserved or accrued, or reasonably anticipates that it may incur, suffer, pay, reserve or accrue, Indemnifiable Damages and (B) containing a reference to the provisions of this Agreement in respect of which such right of indemnification is claimed or arises;

(ii) stating the amount of such Indemnifiable Damages (which, in the case of Indemnifiable Damages not yet incurred, suffered, paid, reserved or accrued, may be the maximum amount reasonably anticipated by Purchaser to be incurred, suffered, paid, reserved, accrued or demanded by a third party); and

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

(b) The Officer’s Certificate (i) need only specify such information to the knowledge of Purchaser as of the date thereof, (ii) shall not limit any of the rights or remedies of any Indemnified Person with respect to the underlying facts and circumstances specifically set forth in such Officer’s Certificate and (iii) may be updated and amended from time to time by Purchaser by delivering an updated or amended Officer’s Certificate, so long as the delivery of such updated or amended Officer’s Certificate is made within the applicable Claims Period and such update or amendment relates to the underlying facts and circumstances specifically set forth in such original Officer’s Certificate; provided that all claims for Indemnifiable Damages properly set forth in the original Officer’s Certificate or any update or amendment thereto shall remain outstanding until such claims have been resolved or satisfied, notwithstanding the expiration of such Claims Period. No delay in providing such Officer’s Certificate (or any update or amendment thereto after conducting discovery regarding the underlying facts and circumstances set forth therein) (so long as it is provided within the applicable Claims Period) shall affect an Indemnified Person’s rights hereunder, unless and only to the extent the indemnifying Seller is materially prejudiced thereby. Following delivery of any Officer’s Certificate, Purchaser shall reasonably promptly provide the Seller Agent with such information, documents and materials with respect thereto as the Seller Agent may reasonably request and which are necessary in order to evaluate the claims made in the Officer’s Certificate.

(c) If the Seller Agent accepts, by written notice to Purchaser, or does not contest any claim or claims by Purchaser made in any Officer’s Certificate on or prior to the date that is 20 days after receipt of such Officer’s Certificate, then the total value equal to the amount of any Indemnifiable Damages corresponding to such claim or claims as set forth in such Officer’s Certificate shall, subject to the limitations in this Article IX, be recoverable by, and Sellers shall pay to, Purchaser pursuant to Section 9.3(e) and Section 9.3(g).

(d) If the Seller Agent objects in writing to any claim or claims by Purchaser made in any Officer’s Certificate within the 20-day period referenced in Section 9.5(c), Purchaser and the Seller Agent shall attempt in good faith for 45 days after Purchaser’s receipt of such written objection to resolve such objection.

74

(e) If no such agreement can be reached during the 45-day period for good faith negotiation referenced in Section 9.5(d), but in any event upon the expiration of such 45-day period, either Purchaser (on behalf of itself or any other Indemnified Person) or the Seller Agent may submit such dispute for final adjudication to the applicable court sitting in the State of Delaware in accordance with Section 10.11.

(f) Any claim for indemnification in respect of Indemnifiable Damages suffered by any Indemnified Person hereunder may be made and enforced by Purchaser only, on behalf of such Indemnified Person.

9.6 Seller Agent.

(a) At the Closing, BuildGroup LLC shall be constituted and appointed as the Seller Agent. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Seller Agent” means the agent for and on behalf of the Sellers to (i) give and receive notices and communications to or from Purchaser (on behalf of itself of any other Indemnified Person) relating to this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement or any of the Transactions and other matters contemplated by this Agreement (except to the extent that this Agreement expressly contemplates that any such notice or communication shall be given or received by such Sellers individually), (ii) authorize deliveries by the Escrow Agent to Purchaser of shares of Purchaser Common Stock from the Escrow Fund in satisfaction of claims asserted by Purchaser (on behalf of itself or any other Indemnified Person, including by not objecting to such claims), (iii) object to and/or resolve such claims pursuant to Section 9.5, (iv) consent or agree to, negotiate, enter into, or, if applicable, prosecute or defend, settlements and compromises of, and comply with orders of courts with respect to, such claims, (v) provide any consents hereunder, including with respect to any proposed settlement of any claims or agree to any amendment to this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement and (vi) take all actions necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Seller Agent for the accomplishment of the foregoing, in each case without having to seek or obtain the consent of any Person under any circumstance. The Person serving as the Seller Agent may be replaced from time to time by a Seller or its Affiliates with a majority in interest of the Escrow Fund upon not less than 10 days’ prior written notice to Purchaser. No bond shall be required of the Seller Agent, and the Seller Agent shall receive no compensation for its services.

(b) The Seller Agent shall not be liable to any Seller for any act done or omitted hereunder as the Seller Agent while acting in good faith (and any act done or omitted pursuant to the advice of counsel shall be conclusive evidence of such good faith) and without gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Sellers shall severally indemnify the Seller Agent and hold the Seller Agent harmless against any loss, liability or expense incurred without gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith on the part of the Seller Agent and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of its duties hereunder, including any out-of-pocket costs and expenses and legal fees and other legal costs reasonably incurred by the Seller Agent.

(c) Any notice or communication given or received by, and any decision, action, failure to act within a designated period of time, agreement, consent, settlement, resolution or instruction of, the Seller Agent that is within the scope of the Seller Agent’s authority under Section 9.6(a) shall constitute a notice or communication to or by, or a decision, action, failure to act within a designated period of time, agreement, consent, settlement, resolution or instruction of all the Sellers and shall be final, binding and conclusive upon each such Seller, and each Indemnified Person shall be entitled to rely upon any such notice, communication, decision, action, failure to act within a designated period of time, agreement, consent, settlement, resolution or instruction as being a notice or communication to or by, or a decision, action, failure to act within a designated period of time, agreement, consent, settlement, resolution or instruction of, each and every such Seller.

75

9.7 Third-Party Claims. Except as set forth in Schedule 9.7, in the event Purchaser becomes aware of a third-party claim that Purchaser believes may result in a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Article IX by or on behalf of an Indemnified Person, Purchaser shall (i) promptly deliver to the Seller Agent an Officer’s Certificate with respect thereto and (ii) provide the Seller Agent the opportunity to participate in, at the Seller Agent’s sole cost and expense, any defense of such claim. Except as set forth in Schedule 9.7, Purchaser shall, however, have the right in its sole discretion to conduct the defense of, and to settle or resolve, any such claim, including paying and/or agreeing to pay, in settlement or resolution of such claim, any amounts to the third party making such claim (such amounts, collectively, a “Settlement Payment”). The costs and expenses incurred by Purchaser in connection with any investigation, defense, settlement or resolution of such claim and the enforcement and protection of its rights under this Agreement in respect thereof (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, other professionals’ and experts’ fees and court or arbitration costs) (collectively, “Defense Costs,” which, for the avoidance of doubt, do not include a Settlement Payment itself), shall constitute Indemnifiable Damages for which the Indemnified Persons shall be indemnified to the extent an indemnification claim is made under this Article IX, whether or not it is ultimately determined that such third-party claim is itself indemnifiable under Section 9.2 (but only if the allegations or claims underlying such third-party claim, taken as alleged or claimed, would be reasonably likely to be indemnifiable under Section 9.2), but shall otherwise be subject to the indemnification limitations applicable to such third-party claim. The Seller Agent shall have the right to receive copies of all pleadings, notices and communications with respect to such third-party claim to the extent that receipt of such documents does not affect any privilege relating to any Indemnified Person and subject to execution by the Seller Agent of Purchaser’s standard non-disclosure agreement to the extent that such materials contain confidential or proprietary information; provided that Purchaser shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to make appropriate substitute arrangements to permit reasonable access or disclosure in such circumstances. In the event that Purchaser determines to settle or resolve any such third-party claim or make a Settlement Payment in connection therewith, Purchaser shall first consult with and seek the consent of the Seller Agent to such Settlement Payment. If the Seller Agent has consented in writing to such Settlement Payment, then, subject to the applicable limitations in this Article IX, the existence and amount of Indemnifiable Damages with respect to such Settlement Payment shall be determinative and binding upon the Sellers and neither the Seller Agent nor any Seller shall have any power or authority to object to recovery by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person (against the Indemnity Escrow Fund or otherwise) for any Indemnifiable Damages claimed with respect to such Settlement Payment in accordance with, and subject to the limitations in, this Article IX. If the Seller Agent has not consented in writing to such Settlement Payment, then such Settlement Payment shall not be determinative or binding upon the Sellers and the existence and amount of Indemnifiable Damages with respect to such Settlement Payment shall be determined in the manner applicable to indemnification claims made in accordance with, and subject to the limitations in, this Article IX.

9.8 Treatment of Indemnification Payments. The parties hereto agree to treat (and cause their respective Affiliates to treat) any payment received by the Indemnified Persons pursuant to this Article IX as an adjustment to the Aggregate Consideration for all Tax purposes to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law.

9.9 Exclusive Remedy. Each party hereto acknowledges and agrees that, except for equitable remedies for non-monetary damages as provided in Section 10.10, from and after the Closing, the indemnification provided in this Article IX shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedy of the Indemnified Persons for monetary damages or any other Indemnifiable Damages relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any certificates delivered hereunder or any of the Transactions, including with respect to any Indemnification Obligations, except in the case of any claims arising out of, resulting from or in connection with any Fraud (other than Company Fraud). For clarity, the survival periods and liability limits set forth in this Article IX shall control notwithstanding any statutory or common law provisions or principles to the contrary. Nothing in this Agreement, including the limitations set forth in Section 9.3, shall limit any Indemnified Person’s rights or obligations under any other agreement entered into in connection with this Agreement.

10.3 Interpretation. When a reference is made herein to Articles, Sections, subsections, Schedules or Exhibits, such reference shall be to an Article, Section or subsection of, or a Schedule or an Exhibit to this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. The headings contained herein are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. The words “include,” “includes” and “including” when used herein shall be deemed in each case to be followed by the words “without limitation.” Where a reference is made to a Contract, instrument or Applicable Law, such reference is to such Contract, instrument or Applicable Law as amended, modified or supplemented, including (in the case of Contracts or instruments) by waiver or consent and (in the case of Applicable Law) by succession of comparable successor Applicable Law and references to all attachments thereto and instruments incorporated therein. Unless the context of this Agreement otherwise requires: (i) words of any gender include each other gender and neutral forms of such words, (ii) words using the singular or plural number also include the plural or singular number, respectively, (iii) the terms “hereof,” “herein,” “hereto,” “hereunder” and derivative or similar words refer to this entire Agreement, (iv) references to clauses without a cross-reference to a Section or subsection are references to clauses within the same Section or, if more specific, subsection, (v) references to a series of clauses are inclusive of the endpoint clauses (e.g., “clause (x) through (y)” is inclusive of clauses (x) and (y)), (vi) references to any Person include the predecessors, successors and permitted assigns of that Person, (vii) references from or through any date shall mean, unless otherwise specified, from and including or through and including, respectively, (viii) subject to clause (ix), the phrases “provide to,” “made available” and “deliver to” and phrases of similar import mean that a true, correct and complete paper or electronic copy of the information or material referred to has been delivered to the party to whom such information or material is to be provided and (ix) the phrases “provided to Purchaser” or “made available to Purchaser” and phrases of similar import means, with respect to any information, document or other material of the Company or its Affiliates, that such information, document or material was made available for review and properly indexed by the Company and its Representatives in the virtual data room established by the Company in connection with this Agreement at least 48 hours prior to the execution of this Agreement or actually delivered (whether by physical or electronic delivery) to Purchaser or its Representatives at least 48 hours prior to the execution of this Agreement. The symbol “$” refers to United States Dollars. The word “extent” in the phrase “to the extent” means the degree to which a subject or other thing extends and such phrase shall not mean simply “if.” All references to “days” shall be to calendar days unless otherwise indicated as a “Business Day.” Any action otherwise required to be taken on a day that is not a Business Day shall instead be required to be taken on the next succeeding Business Day, and if the last day of a time period is a non-Business Day, such period shall be deemed to end on the next succeeding Business Day. Unless indicated otherwise, all mathematical calculations contemplated by this Agreement shall be rounded to the fifth decimal place, except in respect of payments, which shall be rounded to the nearest whole United States cent.

10.4 Amendment. Subject to Applicable Law, Purchaser and the Sellers may amend this Agreement by authorized action at any time pursuant to an instrument in writing signed by Purchaser and the Sellers. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, Purchaser and the Seller Agent may cause this Agreement to be amended at any time after the Closing by execution of an instrument in writing signed on behalf of Purchaser and the Seller Agent.

10.5 Extension; Waiver. At any time at or prior to the Closing, any party hereto may, to the extent legally allowed, (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other parties hereto owed to such party, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties made to such party contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto and (c) waive any breaches of any of the covenants, agreements, obligations or conditions for the benefit of such party contained herein.

Any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing that is (a) prior to the Closing with respect to the Company and/or the Sellers, signed by the Sellers, (b) after the Closing with respect to the Sellers and/or the Seller Agent, signed by the Seller Agent and (c) with respect to Purchaser, signed by Purchaser. Without limiting the generality or effect of the preceding sentence, no failure to exercise or delay in exercising any right under this Agreement shall constitute a waiver of such right, and no waiver of any breach or default shall be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default of the same or any other provision herein.

10.6 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same instrument and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties hereto and delivered to the other parties hereto; it being understood and agreed that all parties hereto need not sign the same counterpart. The delivery by facsimile or by electronic delivery in PDF format (including any electronic signature complying with the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000, e.g., www.docusign.com) of this Agreement with all executed signature pages (in counterparts or otherwise) shall be sufficient to bind the parties hereto to the terms and conditions set forth herein. All of the counterparts will together constitute one and the same instrument and each counterpart will constitute an original of this Agreement.

79

10.7 Entire Agreement; Parties in Interest. This Agreement and the documents and instruments and other agreements specifically referred to herein or delivered pursuant hereto, including all the exhibits attached hereto, the Schedules, including the Seller Disclosure Letter, (a) constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, except for the Confidentiality Agreement, which shall continue in full force and effect, and shall survive any termination of this Agreement, in accordance with its terms and (b) are not intended to confer, and shall not be construed as conferring, upon any Person other than the parties hereto any rights or remedies hereunder (except that Article IX is intended to benefit the Indemnified Persons and Section 6.12 is intended to benefit the Company Indemnified Parties).

10.8 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights and obligations under this Agreement may be assigned or delegated, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise by any of the parties hereto without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto, and any such assignment without such prior written consent shall be null and void, except that Purchaser may assign its rights and delegate its obligations under this Agreement to any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Purchaser without the prior consent of any other party hereto; provided that notwithstanding any such assignment, Purchaser shall remain liable for all of its obligations under this Agreement. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

10.9 Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof, becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect and shall be interpreted so as reasonably necessary to effect the intent of the parties hereto. The parties hereto shall use all reasonable efforts to replace such void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that shall achieve, to the greatest extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such void or unenforceable provision.

10.10 Remedies Cumulative; Specific Performance. Except as otherwise provided herein, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a party hereto shall be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such party, and the exercise by a party hereto of any one remedy shall not preclude the exercise of any other remedy and nothing herein shall be deemed a waiver by any party hereto of any right to specific performance or injunctive relief. It is accordingly agreed that the parties hereto shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity, and the parties hereto hereby waive the requirement of any posting of a bond in connection with the remedies described herein.

10.11 Governing Law. This Agreement, all acts and transactions pursuant hereto and all obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without reference to such state’s principles of conflicts of law that would refer a matter to a different jurisdiction. Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of, or relating to or in connection with this Agreement, including any question regarding its existence, validity or termination, shall be resolved by arbitration in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association, which rules are incorporated herein by reference. The seat of the arbitration will be San Francisco, California. The number of arbitrators shall be three, with each of Purchaser and prior to the Closing, the Sellers, and following the Closing, the Seller Agent, each selecting one arbitrator, and such selected arbitrators selecting the third arbitrator. The language of the arbitration will be English.

All Legal Proceedings, Liabilities or causes of action (whether in contract or in tort, in law or in equity, or granted by statute) that may be based upon, in respect of, arise under, out or by reason of, be connected with, or relate in any manner to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement (including any representation or warranty made in, in connection with, or as an inducement to, this Agreement) and the Transactions, may be made only against (and such representations and warranties are those solely of) the Persons that are expressly identified as parties in the preamble to this Agreement in their capacities as parties to this Agreement (the “Contracting Parties”).

Without limiting the foregoing, to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law, each Contracting Party disclaims any reliance upon any Nonparty Persons with respect to the performance of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement or any representation or warranty made in, in connection with, or as an inducement to this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, nothing in this Section 10.12 shall limit Purchaser’s recourse in the event of Fraud. The provisions of this Section 10.12 are for the benefit of and shall be enforceable by each Nonparty Person, which is an intended third-party beneficiary of this Section 10.12.

10.13 Rules of Construction.

10.14 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF PURCHASER AND THE SELLERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE ACTIONS OF PURCHASER OR THE SELLERS IN THE NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE AND ENFORCEMENT HEREOF. EACH PARTY HERETO CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (A) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (B) SUCH PARTY UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATION OF THIS WAIVER, (C) SUCH PARTY MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY AND (D) SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

10.15 Privileged Matters; Conflicts Waiver.

(a) Purchaser, on behalf of itself and each of its Affiliates, hereby waives, and agrees not to allege, any claim that Allen Overy Shearman & Sterling US LLP (the “Firm”) has a conflict of interest or is otherwise prohibited from representing BuildGroup, LLC or any of their Representatives (the “Seller Group”) in any post-Closing matter or dispute with Purchaser or any of their Representatives related to or involving this Agreement (including the negotiation hereof) or the Transaction, even though the interests of the Seller Group in such matter or dispute may be directly adverse to the interests of Purchaser or any of its Representatives.

(b) Purchaser, on behalf of itself and each of its Affiliates, acknowledges and agrees that the Sellers’ attorney-client privilege, attorney work-product protection and expectation of client confidence involving the Transaction, and all information and documents covered by such privilege, protection or expectation, and all information and documents covered by such privilege, protection or expectation shall be retained and controlled by the applicable Seller, and may be waived only by the respective Seller. Purchaser and the Sellers acknowledge and agree that (i) the foregoing attorney-client privilege, work product protection and expectation of client confidence shall not be controlled, owned, used, waived or claimed by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates upon consummation of the Closing (except as provided in the following clause (ii)); and (ii) in the event of a dispute between Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and a third party, on the other hand, or any other circumstance in which a third party requests or demands that Purchaser or any of its Affiliates produce privileged materials or attorney work-product of the Sellers or their Affiliates, Purchaser may assert (but not waive, without the written consent of the Seller Agent acting reasonably) such attorney-client privilege on behalf of the Seller Group to prevent disclosure of privileged communications or attorney work-product to such third party.
