     1.3 Effect of the Merger. At the Effective Time, the effect of the Merger shall be as provided in this Agreement, in the Plan of Merger and in the applicable provisions of the CGCL. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, at the Effective Time the Surviving Corporation shall succeed, without other transfer, to all the rights and property of each of the Company and Merger Sub and shall be subject to all of the debts and liabilities of each of the Company and Merger Sub in the same manner as if the Surviving Corporation had itself incurred them.

The officers of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the initial officers of the Surviving Corporation.
     1.6 Effect of Merger on Capital Stock.
          (a) The aggregate maximum consideration (the “Total Consideration”) to be paid pursuant to this Agreement by Parent and Merger Sub shall be $38,000,000, subject to adjustment as set forth in this Agreement. No adjustment shall be made in the Total Consideration paid in the Merger as a result of any cash proceeds received by the Company from the date hereof to the Closing Date pursuant to the exercise of Company Options or any other options, warrants or other rights to acquire Company Stock (it being understood, however, that any such cash proceeds, to the extent in existence and constituting an asset of the Company at the Closing, would be taken into account as a cash asset in the calculation of Estimated Net Assets and Closing Net Assets and would not be excluded in calculating any adjustment to be made pursuant to Section 1.9 or Section 1.10). Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the holder of any shares of Company Stock, or the holder of any Company Options, Company Warrants or any other options, warrants or other rights to acquire or receive shares of Company Stock, the following shall occur, subject to the provisions of this Article I:

               (ii) each share of Series A Preferred Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than any shares of the Series A Preferred Stock to be canceled pursuant to the last sentence of this Section 1.6(a) and any Dissenting Shares as defined in and to the extent provided in Section 1.14) will be converted automatically into the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the Series A Closing Consideration Per Share plus an amount equal to the product of (A) the Series A Pro Rata Share multiplied by (B) any proceeds or distributions of the Escrow Deposit (if, when and to the extent distributed from escrow to the Shareholders pursuant to the Escrow Agreement);

3


 

(B) any proceeds or distributions of the Escrow Deposit (if, when and to the extent distributed from escrow to the Shareholders pursuant to the Escrow Agreement);
               (iv) each share of Series C Preferred Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than any shares of the Series C Preferred Stock to be canceled pursuant to the last sentence of this Section 1.6(a) and any Dissenting Shares as defined in and to the extent provided in Section 1.14) will be converted automatically into the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the Series C Closing Consideration Per Share plus an amount equal to the product of (A) the Series C Pro Rata Share multiplied by (B) any proceeds or distributions of the Escrow Deposit (if, when and to the extent distributed from escrow to the Shareholders pursuant to the Escrow Agreement);
               (v) each share of Series D Preferred Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than any shares of the Series D Preferred Stock to be canceled pursuant to the last sentence of this Section 1.6(a) and any Dissenting Shares as defined in and to the extent provided in Section 1.14) will be converted automatically into the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the Series D Closing Consideration Per Share plus an amount equal to the product of (A) the Series D Pro Rata Share multiplied by (B) any proceeds or distributions of the Escrow Deposit (if, when and to the extent distributed from escrow to the Shareholders pursuant to the Escrow Agreement); and
               (vi) each share of Series D-1 Preferred Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than any shares of the Series D-1 Preferred Stock to be canceled pursuant to the last sentence of this Section 1.6(a) and any Dissenting Shares as defined in and to the extent provided in Section 1.14) will be converted automatically into the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the Series D-1 Closing Consideration Per Share plus an amount equal to the product of (A) the Series D-1 Pro Rata Share multiplied by (B) any proceeds or distributions of the Escrow Deposit (if, when and to the extent distributed from escrow to the Shareholders pursuant to the Escrow Agreement).
Each share of Company Stock converted pursuant to this Section 1.6(a) shall automatically cease to be outstanding and shall be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and each holder of a certificate representing any such share of Company Stock shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive such holder’s respective portion of the Total Consideration set forth in this Section 1.6(a) with respect to the shares represented by such certificate. Each share of Company Stock, if any, held by the Company as treasury stock immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be canceled and extinguished without any conversion thereof, and no payment or distribution shall be made with respect thereto.
          (b) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Company, Merger Sub, the holder of any shares of Company Stock or the holder of any shares of Merger Sub Common Stock, each share of Merger Sub Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be automatically converted into one (1) validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of Common Stock, no par value per share, of the Surviving Corporation, and all of such shares, as converted, shall thereafter constitute all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Surviving Corporation. Each stock certificate of Merger Sub evidencing ownership of any shares of Merger Sub Common

4


 

Stock shall continue to evidence ownership of such shares of capital stock of the Surviving Corporation.
     1.7 Stock Options, Warrants and Restricted Stock.
          (a) The Company shall take all actions necessary to provide that at the Effective Time (i) each Director Option that is outstanding, unexercised and unexpired immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether vested or unvested, and as to which the holder thereof executes a Director Option Termination Agreement shall be accelerated in full, cancelled and converted into and represent the right to receive the Option Spread Amount in accordance with the Director Option Termination Agreement, (ii) each Vested Non-Employee Option that is outstanding, vested, unexercised and unexpired immediately prior to the Effective Time, and as to which the holder thereof executes an Option Termination Agreement shall be cancelled and converted into and represent the right to receive the Option Spread Amount with respect to the vested portion of such Company Option and the unvested portion of such Company Option, if any, shall be cancelled without any payment to the holders, in accordance with the Option Termination Agreement, and (iii) all options to purchase Company Stock that are not Assumed Options shall be terminated and cancelled by the Company and shall be of no further force or effect. The amount of cash each holder of Director Options or Vested Non-Employee Options that are outstanding, unexercised and unexpired immediately prior to the Effective Time (collectively, “Cashed-Out Options”) is entitled to receive for the Cashed-Out Options held by such holder shall be rounded to the nearest cent and computed after aggregating cash amounts for all Cashed-Out Options held by such holder. Any amount paid pursuant to this Section 1.7(a) in respect of Cashed-Out Options shall be subject to any applicable Taxes required to be withheld with respect to such payment.
          (b) At the Effective Time, the 2000 Stock Plan shall be assumed by Parent; provided that prior to Closing, the Company shall make such amendments and modifications to the 2000 Stock Plan as Parent shall reasonably request. Each Assumed Option shall be assumed by Parent in a manner consistent with Code Sections 409A and 424(a) and the Treasury regulations thereunder (including proposed regulations). Each such Assumed Option so assumed by Parent shall continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions as set forth in the 2000 Stock Plan, as the same may be amended (and any related Contract), pursuant to which such Assumed Option was granted and issued, in each case, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that (x) each such Assumed Option shall become exercisable in accordance with its terms for that number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the product obtained by multiplying (A) the number of shares of Common Stock that were issuable upon the exercise in full of such Assumed Option immediately prior to the Effective Time by (B) the Assumed Company Option Exchange Ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock, (y) the per share exercise price for the Parent Common Stock issuable upon exercise of each such Assumed Option assumed shall be equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the exercise price per share of Common Stock at which such Assumed Option was exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time by (B) the Assumed Company Option Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent, and (z) if a holder of an Assumed Option executes and delivers to Parent and the Company an option amendment agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F (an “Option Amendment Agreement”), such Assumed Option shall vest and be immediately exercisable (subject to the provisions of the Option Amendment

5


 

Agreement). Following the assumption of the Assumed Options, all references to the Company in any such Assumed Options and the 2000 Stock Plan shall be deemed to refer to Parent.
          (c) Parent shall pay or cause the Company to pay (at the same time as any payment of any proceeds or distributions of the Escrow Deposit, if and when distributed from escrow to the Shareholders in accordance with the Escrow Agreement) to each Company Employee holding an Assumed Option immediately prior to the Effective Time (whether or not such Company Employee has executed and delivered an Option Amendment Agreement) an amount in cash per Assumed Option Share equal to: (i) the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the Aggregate Option Holdback Amount (less amounts set-off against such Aggregate Option Holdback Amount pursuant to Section 9.4(c) hereof) by (y) the number of Assumed Option Shares, less (ii) applicable Taxes required to be withheld with respect to the payment of such amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all amounts distributable pursuant to this Section 1.7(c) shall be paid no later than five years after the Closing Date in accordance with Proposed Regulation 1.409A-3(g)(5)(iv). Parent shall be entitled, pursuant to Section 9.4(c) hereof, to set off indemnity claims against the Aggregate Option Holdback Amount from time to time.
          (d) With respect to Director Option Termination Agreements, Option Termination Agreements and Option Amendment Agreements, the Company shall mail such agreements to the applicable holders of Company Options no later than three business days following the date of this Agreement, and shall use reasonable efforts to have such agreements executed by such holders and delivered to the Company at least one day prior to the Closing Date.
          (e) The Company shall use reasonable efforts to provide that each holder of Company Warrants shall have executed and delivered to Parent a Warrant Termination Agreement prior to the Effective Time.
          (f) The Company shall take all actions to provide that each holder of Restricted Shares, if any, shall have duly executed and delivered to Parent a Restricted Stock Amendment Agreement prior to the Effective Time. Subject to the Restricted Stock Amendment Agreements, the portion of the Merger Consideration issued in exchange for any such Restricted Shares will be unvested and subject to the same repurchase option, substantial risk of forfeiture or other similar condition to which the Restricted Shares are subject. The Company shall use reasonable efforts to ensure that, from and after the Effective Time, Parent is entitled to exercise any such repurchase option or other right set forth in any such restricted stock purchase agreement or other agreement. Subject to the last sentence of this Section 1.7(f), after the Effective Time, Parent shall pay the Merger Consideration to which such Restricted Shares are entitled in accordance with the vesting schedule applicable to the Restricted Shares, subject to applicable withholdings for Taxes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the amount of cash contributed to the Escrow Deposit on behalf of any Shareholder holding Restricted Shares pursuant to Section 1.8 shall be contributed from that portion that is vested or otherwise unrestricted and free from a repurchase option, risk of forfeiture or other condition under any applicable restricted stock purchase agreement or other agreement with the Company. To the extent that the vested or unrestricted cash payable to any Shareholder pursuant to this Agreement is less than the amount to be contributed to the Escrow Deposit on behalf of such Shareholder pursuant to this Agreement, the restricted cash amounts contributed to the Escrow Deposit on

6


 

behalf of such Shareholder shall vest or otherwise become free from a repurchase option, risk of forfeiture or other condition under any applicable restricted stock purchase agreement or other agreement with the Company in priority to other cash amounts otherwise receivable by such Shareholder pursuant to this Agreement and no payment shall be made to such Shareholder unless and until all of the cash amounts contributed to the Escrow Deposit on behalf of such Shareholder has vested and is otherwise free from a repurchase option, risk of forfeiture or other condition under any applicable restricted stock purchase agreement or other agreement with the Company.
     1.8 Escrow. On the Closing Date, the Shareholders’ Representative, Parent, Merger Sub and Branch Banking and Trust Company of Virginia, a Virginia banking corporation (the “Escrow Agent”), shall enter into an Escrow Agreement in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit G (the “Escrow Agreement”). In order to secure (i) the payment of the Post-Closing Adjustment, if any, pursuant to Section 1.10 hereof and (ii) the satisfaction of claims pursuant to Article IX of this Agreement, Parent is hereby directed by the Shareholder Representative to deposit with the Escrow Agent at the Closing an amount in cash equal to the Escrow Deposit and Parent shall make such deposit as so directed.
     1.9 Adjustments to Total Consideration.
          (a) At least five (5) days prior to the Closing, the Company and Parent shall jointly prepare and finalize (i) the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet and (ii) the Statement of Estimated Closing Liabilities.
          (b) The Total Consideration shall be adjusted, as indicated below, by the following amounts, if any, shown on the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet or Statement of Estimated Closing Liabilities, as applicable: (i) the Total Consideration shall be reduced dollar for dollar by the amount of any Indebtedness (other than Bridge Notes as to which the Company has timely received a Conversion Notice); (ii) the Total Consideration shall be reduced dollar for dollar by the amount of any Non-Ordinary Course Liabilities (other than Paid Transaction Expenses the payment of which has been given effect on the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet); and (iii) the Total Consideration shall be reduced dollar for dollar by the amount of the Estimated Net Assets Deficit, if any, or increased dollar for dollar by the amount of the Estimated Net Assets Surplus, if any. The adjustments set forth in this Section 1.9(b) shall be referred to herein collectively as the “Estimated Closing Adjustment.” The Estimated Closing Adjustment shall be determined without regard to the limitations set forth in Section 9.4 hereof.
          (c) No later than five (5) days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall provide to Parent a draft statement setting forth the following information as of immediately prior to the Effective Time: (i) the names and addresses of record of each holder (each a “Holder”) of Company Stock, Company Options, Company Warrants, Bridge Notes or rights to receive payments pursuant to the Carve-Out Plans, (ii) the type and number of shares of Company Stock held by each such Holder, (iii) the number of Company Options held by each such Holder, (iv) the number and type of Company Warrants held by each such Holder, and (v) each such Holder’s allocation of Total Consideration (setting forth each security or right pursuant to which such allocation is made and the amount allocated with respect to each such security or right together with all tax withholdings required to be made in connection with the

7


 

payment of such allocated amount), Escrow Deposit, Aggregate Option Holdback Amount and Aggregate Bonus Holdback Amount. The Company shall use all reasonable efforts to cause the Company Options and the Company Warrants not to be exercised after the draft of the Statement of Closing Consideration is prepared and delivered pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence. No later than two (2) business days prior to the Closing, the Parties shall agree upon a flow of funds memorandum which shall set forth all payments required to be made by or on behalf of all Parties at the Closing on an aggregate basis and not to each individual shareholder (which shall include, without limitation, provision for the payment of any Indebtedness and any Non-Ordinary Course Liabilities (other than any Paid Transaction Expenses the payment of which has been given effect on the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet)), including for each such payment an identification of the payor, the payee, the amount and the wire transfer information. The draft statement referred to in the first sentence of this Section 1.9(c) shall be finalized by the Company and Parent no later than 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the day before the Closing Date (such final statement, the “Statement of Closing Consideration”).
          (d) Promptly upon the Closing, the Company (or Parent on the Company’s behalf and at the Company’s direction) shall repay all Indebtedness (other than Bridge Notes as to which the Company has timely received a Conversion Notice) and all Non-Ordinary Course Liabilities (other than any Paid Transaction Expenses the payment of which has been given effect on the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet) from the Total Consideration. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, at the Closing, the Company shall pay (or shall direct Parent to pay on the Company’s behalf) all amounts due and owing pursuant to the Carve-Out Plans and any award agreements thereunder to the participants in such Carve-Out Plans, and in connection therewith shall withhold (or direct Parent to withhold on the Company’s behalf) from such payments (i) all amounts required under applicable Law and the Benefit Plans to be withheld and shall pay (or direct Parent to pay on the Company’s behalf) to the appropriate Tax authority (and to any applicable Benefit Plan) all such amounts as required by such Law or Benefit Plan to be so paid, and (ii) in the case of the Management Bonus Plan, an amount equal to the Aggregate Bonus Holdback Amount, pro rata from each Management Bonus Plan participant in proportion to the aggregate Management Bonus Plan payments to which such participant is entitled under the Management Bonus Plan. Parent shall be entitled to rely exclusively on the amounts set forth on the Statement of Closing Consideration for the amounts of any payments to be made or withheld. Parent shall be entitled, pursuant to Section 9.4(c) hereof, to set off shareholder indemnity claims against the Aggregate Bonus Holdback Amount from time to time. Parent shall pay (or cause to be paid) and at the same time as any payment of and proceeds or distributions of the Escrow Deposit, if and when distributed from escrow to the Shareholders in accordance with the Escrow Agreement to each Company Employee as of the Closing participating in the Management Bonus Plan an amount in cash equal to such Company Employee’s pro rata share of such Aggregate Bonus Holdback Amount (less in all cases applicable Taxes required to be withheld with respect to the payment of such amount).
     1.10 Post-Closing Adjustment.
          (a) Within ninety (90) days following the Closing Date, Parent shall furnish the Shareholders’ Representative with the Closing Balance Sheet and the Statement of Closing Liabilities.

8


 

          (b) The Shareholders’ Representative shall have a period of ten (10) days after receipt of the Closing Balance Sheet to notify Parent of its election to accept or reject the Closing Balance Sheet. In the case of a rejection, such notice must contain the reasons for such rejection in reasonable detail and must set forth the amount of the requested adjustment. In the event no notice is received by Parent during such ten (10) day period, the Closing Balance Sheet and any required adjustments resulting therefrom shall be deemed accepted by the Shareholders’ Representative and the Key Shareholders and final and binding on the Parties hereto. In the event that the Shareholders’ Representative shall timely reject the Closing Balance Sheet, Parent and the Shareholders’ Representative shall promptly (and in any event within thirty (30) days following the date upon which the Shareholders’ Representative shall reject the Closing Balance Sheet), attempt to make a joint determination of the Closing Adjustments and such determination and any required adjustments resulting therefrom shall be final and binding on the Parties hereto.
          (c) In the event the Shareholders’ Representative and Parent shall be unable to agree upon a joint determination of Closing Adjustments within one hundred seventy (170) days from the Closing Date, then within one hundred eighty (180) days from the Closing Date, Parent and the Shareholders’ Representative shall submit the dispute to the Accounting Firm. Parent and the Shareholders’ Representative shall request that the Accounting Firm render its determination prior to the expiration of two hundred forty (240) days from the Closing Date and such determination and any required adjustments resulting therefrom shall be final and binding on all the Parties hereto. The fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be allocated to be paid by Parent and/or the Key Shareholders, respectively, based upon the percentage which the portion of the total amount contested and not awarded to such party bears to the total amount contested, as determined by the Accounting Firm.
          (d) If the Closing Net Assets as finally determined in accordance with the provisions of this Section 1.10 is less than the Estimated Net Assets, then Parent and Stockholders’ Representative shall so notify the Escrow Agent and subject to Section 9.4(c), (i) the aggregate amount of such deficit less the amount of the Holdback Claim Amount for such deficit shall be paid to Parent by the Escrow Agent from the Escrow Deposit, as an adjustment to the Total Consideration, by wire transfer in immediately available funds within seven (7) days after such determination and (ii) Parent shall be entitled to set off and recover from the Aggregate Option Holdback Amount and the Aggregate Bonus Holdback Amount, on a pro rata basis, an amount equal to the Holdback Claim Amount for such deficit, and the Aggregate Option Holdback Amount and the Aggregate Bonus Holdback Amount shall be reduced on a pro rata basis by the amount so set off and recovered. If the Closing Net Assets as finally determined in accordance with the provisions of this Section 1.10 exceeds the Estimated Net Assets, then Parent and the Stockholders’ Representative shall so notify the Escrow Agent and (i) the aggregate amount of such surplus shall be paid by Parent to the Escrow Agent to be added to the Escrow Deposit as an adjustment to the Total Consideration by wire transfer in immediately available funds within seven (7) days after such determination and (ii) the Aggregate Option Holdback Amount shall be increased on a pro rata basis with the amount of the increase in the Escrow Deposit pursuant to clause (i) of this sentence.
          (e) If the Indebtedness and/or the Non-Ordinary Course Liabilities (other than Paid Transaction Expenses the payment of which has been given effect on the Closing Balance Sheet) determined pursuant to this Section 1.10 exceed the Indebtedness and/or the Non-

9


 

Ordinary Course Liabilities (other than Paid Transaction Expenses the payment of which has been given effect on the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet), respectively, set forth on the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet, such excess shall be paid to Parent by the Escrow Agent from the Escrow Deposit, as an adjustment to the Total Consideration, by wire transfer in immediately available funds within seven (7) days after such determination. If the Indebtedness and/or the Non-Ordinary Course Liabilities (other than Paid Transaction Expenses the payment of which has been given effect on the Closing Balance Sheet) determined pursuant to this Section 1.10 are less than the Indebtedness and/or the Non-Ordinary Course Liabilities (other than Paid Transaction Expenses the payment of which has been given effect on the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet), respectively, set forth on the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet, such deficit shall be paid by Parent to the Escrow Agent to be added to the Escrow Deposit as an adjustment to the Total Consideration by wire transfer in immediately available funds within seven (7) days after such determination. The adjustments described in Sections 1.10(d) and (e) shall be referred to collectively as the “Post-Closing Adjustment.”
     1.11 Surrender of Certificates.
          (a) Distribution of Transmittal Letter. Prior to the Closing Date, Parent shall make available to the Company, and, as soon as practicable following the Effective Time (and, in any event, within five (5) days thereafter), Parent shall cause to be mailed to each record holder of certificates evidencing shares of Company Stock to be exchanged pursuant to Section 1.6 (the “Certificates”) a letter of transmittal in the form attached hereto as Exhibit H (the “Letter of Transmittal”) and instructions for such holder’s use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates and the exercise of the rights of such holder to obtain the portion of the Total Consideration payable to such holder pursuant to Section 1.6.
          (b) Delivery of Total Consideration. Upon surrender to Parent or its designated representative of any Certificates for cancellation, together with a Letter of Transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, together with such other executed documents as may be required pursuant to the instructions set forth in the Letter of Transmittal, the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive, in exchange therefor the portion of the Total Consideration to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 1.6 of this Agreement. Parent shall transmit the applicable portion of the Total Consideration to which such holder is entitled (subject to the portion escrowed pursuant to Section 1.6 and 1.8) in accordance with the terms of Section 1.6 hereof within three (3) days after receipt of all such holder’s Certificates for cancellation and a Letter of Transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, together with such other executed documents as may be required pursuant to the instructions set forth therein. No interest shall be paid or accrued on any portion of the Total Consideration payable pursuant to Section 1.6. Until so surrendered, each Certificate shall, after the Effective Time, represent for all purposes only the right to receive the applicable portion of the Total Consideration payable pursuant to Section 1.6 in respect of the shares of Company Stock represented by such Certificate. Any holder of Company Stock who has not complied with this Article I shall be entitled to look only to Parent (subject to abandoned property, escheat or other similar Laws) only as a general creditor thereof with respect to the applicable portion of the Total Consideration payable in respect of such shares of Company Stock pursuant to Section 1.6, without any interest thereon.

10


 

          (c) No Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, none of Parent, Merger Sub or the Surviving Corporation shall be liable to a holder of a Certificate for any applicable Total Consideration or any other amount due that was properly delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.
          (d) Withholding of Tax. Parent will be entitled (but not obligated) to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of Company Stock such amounts as Parent (or any Affiliate thereof) shall determine in good faith that they are required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under any provision of Law relating to Taxes. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by Parent, such withheld amounts will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of the Company Stock in respect of whom such deduction and withholding were made by Parent.
          (e) Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates.

The Company may, without cost, withdraw their employees, directors, officers and consultants from any Benefit Plan which is not sponsored by such entity. No Benefit Plan has any provision which could increase or accelerate benefits or any provision which could increase Liability to the Company or Parent as a result of the transactions contemplated hereby, alone or together with any other event.

Neither the Company nor any ERISA Affiliate is a party to, or otherwise obligated under, any contract, agreement, plan or arrangement that provides for the gross-up of taxes imposed by Section 409A(a)(1)(B) of the Code.
          (m) The execution and delivery by the Company of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, will not conflict with or result in any violation of or default under (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both), or give rise to a right of termination, cancellation, modification or acceleration of any obligation or loss of any benefit under any Benefit Plan, trust or loan that will or may result in any payment (whether of severance pay or otherwise), acceleration, forgiveness of indebtedness, vesting, distribution, increase in benefits or obligation to fund benefits with respect to any employee.

Parent shall give the Shareholders’ Representative prompt notice after it becomes aware of the commencement of any such claim, demand or legal proceeding against Parent; provided, however, any failure on the part of Parent to so notify the Shareholders’ Representative shall not limit any of the obligations of the Shareholders or the Shareholders’ Representative, or any of the rights of any Indemnified Party, under this Article IX (except to the extent such failure materially adversely prejudices the defense of such claim, demand or Proceeding).

All covenants and agreements that are required to be fully performed at or prior to the Closing and all representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or in any agreement or other document required to be executed and delivered contemporaneously herewith or at the Closing pursuant hereto shall survive the Closing until the date that is 18 months after the Closing Date and shall thereafter expire, except that any indemnification claim that has been made for a Breach of any such covenant, agreement, representation or warranty prior to such date shall survive until such claim is resolved.

58


 

          (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 9.3(a), the limitations on survival set forth in Section 9.3(a) shall not apply to (i) claims against a Shareholder, Party or other Person based on criminal matters, actual fraud or intentional misrepresentation by such Shareholder, Party or other Person, of which such Shareholder, Party or other Person had actual knowledge, or in which such Shareholder, Party or other Person is otherwise implicated (collectively, “Specific Fraud Claims”) which shall survive without limitation (and in no event less than six years), (ii) claims (other than Specific Fraud Claims) relating to criminal matters, actual fraud or intentional misrepresentation (“General Fraud Claims,”), which shall survive the Closing until the date that is forty-two (42) months after the Closing Date and shall thereafter expire, except that any such indemnification claim that has been made on or prior to such date shall survive until such claim is resolved, (iii) the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.2 (Authority), 3.4 (Capitalization) and 3.18 (Intellectual Property) which shall survive the Closing until the date that is forty-two (42) months after the Closing Date and shall thereafter expire, except that any such indemnification claim that has been made on or prior to such date shall survive until such claim is resolved, and (iv) the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.8 (Employee Benefit Plans) and 3.10 (Taxes) which shall survive the Closing until the date that is twenty-four (24) months after the Closing Date and shall thereafter expire, except that any such indemnification claim that has been made prior to such date shall survive until such claim is resolved, (collectively, (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) are referred to as the “Excluded Claims”).
          (c) Claims for indemnification pursuant to Sections 9.1(iv), (viii) or (ix) hereof must be made on or prior to the date that is twenty-four (24) months after the Closing Date, except that any such indemnification claim that has been made on or prior to such date shall survive until such claim is resolved. Claims for indemnification pursuant to Sections 9.1(iii), (v), (vi) or (vii) hereof must be made on or prior to the date that is forty-two (42) months after the Closing Date, except that any such indemnification claim that has been made on or prior to such date shall survive until such claim is resolved.
          (d) Nothing herein shall be deemed to prevent the Indemnified Party from making a claim, and an Indemnified Party may make a claim hereunder, for potential or contingent claims or demands, if the notice of such claim sets forth the basis for any such potential or contingent claim or demand to the extent then reasonably feasible and the Indemnified Party has reasonable grounds to believe that such a claim or demand may be made.
     9.4 Limitations on Indemnification.
          (a) After the Closing Date, the Escrow Deposit, the Aggregate Option Holdback Amount and the Aggregate Bonus Holdback Amount shall be the Indemnified Parties’ sole recourse for (i) any indemnification claims made pursuant to Sections 9.1(i) or (x) hereof (except for Excluded Claims, as to which the foregoing limitation shall not apply) and (ii) indemnification claims made against Shareholders who are not Key Shareholders (except for Specific Fraud Claims, as to which the foregoing limitation shall not apply). Except in the case of Excluded Claims, there shall be no liability for Damages for indemnification claims pursuant to Sections 9.1(i) or (iv) hereof unless and until the aggregate amount of all Damages for all claims asserted by the Indemnified Parties exceeds $200,000; provided that, after the aggregate amount of Damages exceeds $200,000, all Damages in excess of the first $50,000 of such Damages shall be recoverable by the Indemnified Parties. Prior to the date that is eighteen (18)

59


 

months after the Closing Date, indemnification claims pursuant to this Agreement shall be satisfied first from the Escrow Deposit, Aggregate Option Holdback Amount and Aggregate Bonus Holdback Amount, if and to the extent the Escrow Deposit, Aggregate Option Holdback Amount and Aggregate Bonus Holdback Amount are then available to satisfy such claims; provided that, the foregoing provisions of this sentence shall not apply to Specific Fraud Claims. The aggregate liability of each Key Shareholder for Excluded Claims (other than Specific Fraud Claims) or claims pursuant to Sections 9.1(ii), (iii), (v), (vi) or (vii) hereof shall not exceed an amount equal to the amount of the Merger Consideration received by such Key Shareholder in the Merger. From and after the earlier to occur of (x) the date that is 18 months after the Closing Date and (y) such time as the Escrow Deposit, Aggregate Option Holdback Amount and Aggregate Bonus Holdback Amount shall have been fully depleted, the Indemnified Parties shall pursue indemnification claims of the nature described in Section 9.1(a)(v) (other than such claims which also constitute Specific Fraud Claims) pursuant to Section 11 of the Voting Agreement. The aggregate liability of the Key Shareholders for indemnification claims for breaches of representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.8 (Employee Benefit Plans) and 3.10 (Taxes) hereof and claims described in Sections 9.1(iv), (viii) and (ix) hereof shall not exceed an amount equal to the greater of (A) $15,000,000 or (B) the product of (x) 50%, multiplied by (y) the aggregate amount of the Merger Consideration (provided that, in no event shall the aggregate liability of a Key Shareholder for such claims (other than Specific Fraud Claims) exceed an amount equal to the amount of the Merger Consideration received by such Key Shareholder). The amount of Damages incurred by an Indemnified Party which relate to any Liabilities which are set forth on, or for which reserves exist on, the Closing Balance Sheet (or which the Shareholders’ Representative can demonstrate by clear and convincing written evidence was taken into account in the calculation of Closing Net Assets) that shall be recoverable hereunder in indemnification shall be the amount of such Damages that exceeds the amount of such Liability or reserve (but only if the Liability set forth or reserved against on the Closing Balance Sheet is specifically identified thereon). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 9.3 hereof and this Section 9.4 hereof), there shall be no limitation, restriction or prohibition on the rights, remedies or entitlement of the Indemnified Parties (or any of them) to claim and recover Damages from any Shareholder or any other Party or Person, or otherwise exercise any rights or remedies (at law or in equity) available to such Indemnified Party with respect to any Shareholder or other Party or Person, whether pursuant to Section 9.1 or pursuant to applicable Law in connection with, resulting from or arising out of, directly or indirectly, Specific Fraud Claims against such Shareholder, Party or Person. Except for Fraud Claims and except in the case of injunctive relief as set forth in Article XI hereof, the indemnification provisions contained in this Article IX are Parent’s exclusive remedy for claims arising from this Agreement.
          (b) For purposes of quantifying Damages resulting from any Breach of any representation or warranty for purposes of indemnification under this Article IX, all representations and warranties shall be treated as if the words “materially,” “in all material respects” or similar words were omitted from such representations and warranties. The indemnification obligations of the parties hereto and the rights and remedies that may be exercised by an Indemnified Party shall not be limited or otherwise affected by or as a result of any information furnished to, or any investigation made by or knowledge of any of the Indemnified Parties or any of their Representatives.

60


 

          (c) In the event Parent shall make an indemnification claim against the Escrow Deposit (or there shall be a deficit in Closing Net Assets pursuant to Section 1.10) pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement and, as a result of such claim or deficit, amounts are to be paid from the Escrow Deposit to Parent (or an other Indemnified Party), then (i) the amount payable from the Escrow Deposit as a result of the claim or deficit shall be equal to the full amount to be paid as a result of the claim or deficit (the “Claim Payment”) reduced by an amount equal to the product of (x) the Claim Payment multiplied by (y) a fraction, (A) the numerator of which is the sum of Aggregate Option Holdback Amount initially set aside pursuant to Section 1.7(c) hereof (the “Initial Aggregate Option Holdback Amount”) plus the Aggregate Bonus Holdback Amount initially set aside pursuant to Section 1.9(d) hereof (the “Initial Aggregate Bonus Holdback Amount”, and together with the Initial Aggregate Option Holdback Amount, the “Initial Holdback Amount”), and (B) the denominator of which is the sum of the Initial Holdback Amount plus the initial Escrow Deposit (such product, the “Holdback Claim Amount”), and (ii) Parent shall be entitled to set off and recover from the Aggregate Option Holdback Amount and the Aggregate Bonus Holdback Amount, on a pro rata basis, an amount equal to the Holdback Claim Amount, and the Aggregate Option Holdback Amount and Aggregate Bonus Holdback Amount shall be reduced on a pro rata basis by the amount so set off and recovered; provided that, in the event the Aggregate Option Holdback Amount and Aggregate Bonus Holdback Amount (less the amount of all setoffs made pursuant to this Section 9.4(c) and Sections 1.7(c) and 1.9(d) hereof through date the payment from the Escrow Deposit as a result of the claim is to be made) shall be less than the Holdback Claim Amount for such claim or deficit, then no such reduction for the Holdback Claim Amount shall be made in respect of such claim or deficit and Parent may recover the full amount of such claim or deficit from the Escrow Deposit.
     9.5 No Contribution. Each Shareholder waives, and acknowledges and agrees that he shall not have and shall not exercise or assert (or attempt to exercise or assert), any right of contribution, right of indemnity or other similar right or remedy against the Company, Parent, the Merger Sub and their respective Affiliates, directors, officers and employees, and, after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation, in connection with any actual or alleged breach of any representation, warranty or obligation set forth in this Agreement.

This Agreement or any of the severable rights and obligations inuring to the benefit of or to be performed by Parent hereunder may be assigned by Parent to a third party, in whole or in part, and to the extent so assigned, the Company and the Key Shareholders hereby recognize said assignee as the party-in-interest with respect to the rights and obligations assigned and agrees to look solely to said assignee for the purpose of conferring benefits, or requiring performance of obligations, assigned to it by Parent.
     11.2 Governing Law. This Agreement shall in all respects be interpreted, construed and governed by and in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, without regard to its conflicts of laws principles; provided that the Merger shall be governed by the CGCL.
     11.3 Specific Performance. Each Party acknowledges that the other Parties shall be irreparably harmed and that there shall be no adequate remedy at law for any violation by any of them of any of the covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement. It is accordingly agreed that, in addition to, but not in lieu of, any other remedies which may be available upon the breach of any such covenants or agreements, each Party shall have the right to obtain injunctive relief before the Closing (and, in the case of Fraud Claims and claims relating to the enforcement of the provisions of Section 6.14, Section 6.16, Articles I, IX or XI hereof, after the Closing) to restrain a breach or threatened breach of, or otherwise to obtain specific performance of, the other Parties’ covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement. All rights and remedies of the Parties under this Agreement shall be cumulative, and the exercise of one or more rights or remedies will not preclude the exercise of any other right or remedy available under this Agreement or applicable law.
     11.4 Severability. Each section, subsection and lesser section of this Agreement constitutes a separate and distinct undertaking, covenant and/or provision hereof. In the event that any provision of this Agreement shall finally be determined to be unlawful, such provision shall be deemed severed from this Agreement, but every other provision of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect; provided, however that if such unlawful clause is so material to the Party for whose benefit the clause was originally included so that such Party would not have entered into this Agreement without such unlawful clause, the severability of such clause shall be arbitrated pursuant to Section 11.9 hereof.
     11.5 Amendment. This Agreement may be amended, supplemented or modified only by execution of an instrument in writing signed by Parent, the Company and the Shareholders’ Representative.

          (c) The Parties hereby exclude any right of appeal to any court on the merits of the dispute. The provisions of this Section 11.9 may be enforced in any court having jurisdiction over the award or any of the Parties or any of their respective assets, and judgment on the award (including without limitation equitable remedies) granted in any arbitration hereunder may be entered in any such court. Nothing contained in this Section 11.9 shall prevent any Party from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction, without the need to resort to arbitration.
