2.1.2.5Following the receipt by the Company of any Comment Notice from the Parent, the Parent and the Company shall use good faith efforts (including, as necessary, involving discussions of senior officers of such Persons) to resolve any disputes with respect thereto.

In the event the Parent delivers an Option Exercise Notice to the Company prior to the Company delivering any Updated Disclosure Schedule to the Parent, the Company shall have the option to deliver to the Parent, within fifteen (15) Business Days following the Parent’s delivery of the Option Exercise Notice, an Updated Disclosure Schedule. If Parent has not delivered an Option Exercise Notice within ninety (90) days following the Company’s delivery to the Parent of its most recently delivered Updated Disclosure Schedule, the Company may deliver an additional Updated Disclosure Schedule (an “Unrequested Updated Disclosure Schedule”); provided, however, that if the Company delivers an Unrequested Updated Disclosure Schedule and there are less than thirty (30) days prior to the Option Expiration Date, the Option Expiration Date shall be extended to the date that is thirty (30) days from the date the Unrequested Updated Disclosure Schedule is delivered.

The Estimated Closing Date Balance Sheet and the Estimate Statement shall each be determined in accordance with Applicable Accounting Principles and include related supporting schedules and calculations.
3.5Post-Closing Merger Consideration Adjustment.
3.5.1Post-Closing Statement. As promptly as reasonably practicable but in no event later than 90 calendar days after the Closing Date, the Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to deliver to the Stockholder Representative a balance sheet of the Company as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Closing Date Balance Sheet”) and a statement certified by an officer of the Surviving Corporation in his/her capacity as such (the “Post-Closing Statement”) containing the Surviving Corporation’s good faith calculation of each of: (i) Net Working Capital calculated as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and without giving effect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby (the “Final Working Capital”), (ii) the Closing Cash (the “Final Closing Cash”), (iii) the Closing Indebtedness (the “Final Closing Indebtedness”), (iv) the Transaction Expenses (the “Final Transaction Expenses”) and (v) the calculation of Total Closing Consideration resulting from each of the foregoing components thereof (the “Final Total Closing Consideration”). The Closing Date Balance Sheet and the Post-Closing Statement shall each be determined in accordance with Applicable Accounting Principles and include related supporting schedules, calculations and documentation. If the Parent and the Surviving Corporation fail to deliver notice of any adjustments within such 90 day period, then the Estimated Working Capital, Estimated Closing Cash, Estimated Closing Indebtedness and/or Estimated Transaction Expenses, as applicable, shall respectively be deemed for all purposes hereunder to be the final statement of the Net Working Capital, Closing Cash, Closing Indebtedness and Transaction Expenses of the Company and the Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall have no further rights to object or require adjustments thereto.
3.5.2Review and Dispute. Within 45 calendar days following receipt by the Stockholder Representative of the Post-Closing Statement, the Stockholder Representative shall either inform the Parent in writing that the Post-Closing Statement is acceptable, or deliver written notice (the “Notice of Disagreement”)
- 22 -

to the Parent of any dispute the Stockholder Representative has with respect to the preparation or content of the Post-Closing Statement or the calculations reflected therein. The Notice of Disagreement must identify the items contained in the Post-Closing Statement that the Stockholder Representative disputes and the basis in reasonable detail for any such disputes, and shall provide the Stockholder Representative’s proposed Closing Date Balance Sheet and calculations of each of Net Working Capital, Closing Cash, Closing Indebtedness and Transaction Expenses. If the Stockholder Representative does not notify the Parent of a dispute with respect to the Post-Closing Statement within such 45 calendar day period, such Post-Closing Statement, and the Final Working Capital, Final Closing Cash, Final Closing Indebtedness and Final Transaction Expenses reflected in the Post-Closing Statement will be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties. In the event a Notice of Disagreement is delivered to the Parent within such 45 calendar day period, the Parent and the Stockholder Representative shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such dispute. If, notwithstanding such good faith effort, the Parent and the Stockholder Representative fail to resolve such dispute within 20 calendar days after the Stockholder Representative provides the Parent with the Notice of Disagreement, then, at the request of either the Parent or the Stockholder Representative, the Parent and the Stockholder Representative jointly shall engage the Accounting Firm to resolve such dispute in accordance with this Section 3.5. The Stockholder Representative and the Parent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Accounting Firm to render a written decision resolving the matters submitted to the Accounting Firm within 20 calendar days of the making of such submission. The scope of the disputes to be resolved by the Accounting Firm shall be limited to whether the items in dispute that were included in the Notice of Disagreement were prepared in accordance with Applicable Accounting Principles and the Accounting Firm shall determine, on such basis, whether and to what extent the Post-Closing Statement and the amounts reflected therein require adjustment. The Accounting Firm is not to make any other determination, including any determination as to whether the Target Working Capital is correct. The Accounting Firm’s decision shall be based solely on written submissions by the Stockholder Representative and the Parent and their respective Representatives and not by independent review. The Accounting Firm shall address only those items in dispute and may not assign a value greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by either Party or smaller than the smallest value for such item claimed by either Party. The fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be borne by the Company Holders, on one hand, and by the Parent, on the other hand, in inverse proportion to the portion of the amount in dispute allocated to the Company Holders, on one hand, and by the Parent, on the other hand. The Parties agree that the procedure set forth in this Section 3.5.2 for resolving disputes with respect to the specified issues set forth in the Notice of Disagreement shall be the sole and exclusive remedy for resolving such disputes; provided, however, that the Parties agree that judgment may be entered upon the determination of the Accounting Firm in any court having jurisdiction over the Party against which such determination is to be enforced.
3.5.3Post-Closing Adjustment. If the Final Total Closing Consideration as finally determined pursuant to Section 3.5.1 (i) is less than the Estimated Total Closing Consideration, then the Total Merger Consideration will be adjusted downward dollar-for-dollar by the amount of such shortfall, or (ii) is greater than the Estimated Total Closing Consideration, then the Total Merger Consideration will be adjusted upward dollar-for-dollar by the amount of such excess. The net result of the adjustment determined in accordance with this Section 3.5.3 shall be referred to as the “Post-Closing Adjustment Amount”.
3.5.4Downward Adjustment. If the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount results in a net decrease in Total Merger Consideration, then, within five Business Days from the date on which the Final Total Closing Consideration is finally determined in accordance with Section 3.5.1, the Parent will retain the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount by way of offset against the Adjustment Holdback. If the Adjustment Holdback is insufficient to satisfy any amount due to the Parent pursuant to this Section 3.5.4, such excess amount shall be paid by the Company Holders to the Parent by wire transfer and without limiting such obligation, if not so paid, the Parent shall be entitled to claim such payment from the Indemnity Escrow Funds. Any remaining amounts of the Adjustment Holdback after deduction pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 3.5.4 shall be, promptly upon receipt of (i) an invoice therefor from the Stockholder Representative in the form attached hereto as Exhibit H and (ii) an updated Payment Spreadsheet setting forth the amounts payable to each Company Holder who is entitled to receive a portion thereof, delivered by wire transfer of immediately available funds by the Parent to the Payments Administrator for distribution to the Company Holders in accordance with the Payment Spreadsheet delivered in connection therewith, pursuant to Article 4 and the applicable provisions of the Payments Administration Agreement.
3.5.5Upward Adjustment. If the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount results in a net increase in Total Merger Consideration, then, promptly upon receipt of (i) an invoice therefor from the Stockholder Representative in the form attached hereto as Exhibit H and (ii) an updated Payment Spreadsheet setting forth the amounts payable to each Company Holder who is entitled to receive a portion thereof, the
- 23 -

The Company covenants and agrees that such notice, excluding the changes or comments of the Parent incorporated therein and the effect thereof, will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading in any material respect.

8.3.1Subject to Section 8.3.2, 8.3.3, and 8.3.4, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, following the Option Exercise Date and prior to the Closing, each of the Parties agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, and to assist and cooperate with the other Parties in doing, all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective, in the most expeditious manner practicable, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, including using commercially reasonable efforts to cause each of the conditions precedent set forth in Article 11 to be satisfied.
8.3.2Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8.3.1 or any other provision of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, this Section 8.3.2, Section 8.3.3 and Section 8.3.4 shall be the sole provisions governing the Parties’ obligations with respect to satisfying the requirements of the HSR Act and other Antitrust Laws with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. To the extent required by the HSR Act and other Antitrust Laws, each of the Parties (other than the Stockholder Representative) shall: (i) upon the earlier of 15 Business Days following the Option Exercise Date or the delivery of written notice from the Parent to the Company prepare and file with the United States Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) and the United States Department of Justice (“DOJ”) the notification and report form required for the transactions contemplated hereby; (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with each other to promptly prepare and file as is necessary to comply with other applicable Antitrust Laws; (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly file any supplemental or additional information which may be requested by any Governmental Entity in connection therewith pursuant

8.3.3Each Party (other than the Stockholder Representative) shall use best efforts to cooperate with the other Party with respect to preparing any filings, correspondence or submissions to the FTC, DOJ or any other Governmental Entity under the HSR Act and other Antitrust Laws, including furnishing to the other Party’s counsel such information and reasonable assistance as such counsel may request in good faith in connection with its preparation of any filing, communication, or submission to any Governmental Entity under the HSR Act and any other Antitrust Law. Each of the Parent and the Company shall promptly inform the other Party upon receipt of any communication from the FTC, the DOJ or any other Governmental Entity regarding any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement under the HSR Act and other Antitrust Laws. Each Party shall permit counsel for the other Party reasonable opportunity to review in advance, and consider in good faith the views of the other Party in connection with, any proposed written communication to the FTC, the DOJ or any other Governmental Entity relating to the HSR Act requirements in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Subject to the Parent’s undertakings pursuant to this Section 8.3, the final determination of the appropriate course of action with respect to the actions contemplated in this Section 8.3 shall be made by the Parent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Party shall be required to provide the other Party with any information that it reasonably considers to be competitively sensitive; provided, that in such circumstance, the disclosing Party shall provide the information to the receiving Party’s external legal counsel on an “external counsel only basis” (prior to doing so, the disclosing Party may seek an assurance from the receiving Party’s external legal counsel that it will not provide such information to the receiving Party) and, where reasonably practicable, shall provide a redacted version to the receiving Party.
8.3.4Nothing in this Section 8.3 shall require any Parent Affiliated Party to (a) agree or commit to any Remedial Action or (b) in the event any Action is instituted or threatened (as determined by the Parent in its sole discretion) challenging the Merger or any other transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents as violating any Antitrust Laws, avoid the filing of, defend against or resolve such Action or commit or agree to any Remedial Action.
8.3.5The Parties hereto (other than the Stockholder Representative) shall cooperate with each other and use their commercially reasonable efforts to promptly prepare and file all necessary documentation, to effect all applications, notices, petitions and filings (other than the filings under the HSR Act and other applicable Antitrust Laws referenced above, which shall be governed solely by Sections 8.3.2, 8.3.3, and 8.3.4) and obtain as promptly as practicable all actions or non-actions, waivers, consents, approvals, orders and authorizations of all Governmental Entities and other Persons which are necessary or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, including the Merger.

Part 800 et seq. or requested by CFIUS, the Parties shall cooperate with each other and use their commercially reasonable efforts to promptly prepare and file such declaration, notice, or other filing.
8.4D&O Indemnification; Exculpation; Insurance.
- 56 -

8.4.1From and after the Effective Time and until the date that is six years thereafter, the Surviving Corporation shall indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by the Company under applicable Law, the individuals who on or prior to the Effective Time were directors or officers of the Company, in their capacity as directors or officers of the Company (the “Company Indemnitees”), with respect to all acts or omissions by them in their capacities as such or taken at the request of the Company at any time prior to the Effective Time. This Section 8.4 and all rights of the Company Indemnitees to indemnification and exculpation from Liabilities for acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time as provided in the Company Certificate of Incorporation or Company Bylaws and any indemnification agreements or arrangements of the Company set forth in Section 8.4 of the Company Disclosure Schedule shall survive the Merger and continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms from and after the Effective Time and until the date that is six years thereafter.
8.4.2The Parent, from and after the Effective Time and until the date that is six years thereafter, shall cause the organizational documents of the Surviving Corporation to contain provisions no less favorable to the Company Indemnitees with respect to limitation of Liabilities of directors and indemnification of directors, officers and employees than are set forth as of the Execution Date in the Company Charter Documents, which provisions shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified, from and after the Effective Time and until the date that is six years thereafter, in a manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of the Company Indemnitees.
8.4.3The provisions of this Section 8.4 are (a) intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each Company Indemnitee, his or her heirs and his or her representatives and (b) are in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to indemnification or contribution that any such person may have by contract or otherwise. In the event that the Surviving Corporation, the Parent or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and is not the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successor or assign of the Surviving Corporation or the Parent, as the case may be, shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 8.4. The obligations of the Parent and the Surviving Corporation under this Section 8.4 shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely affect any Company Indemnitee to whom this Section 8.4 applies without the consent of the affected Company Indemnitee. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Parties expressly agree that the Company Indemnitees to whom this Section 8.4 applies shall be third party beneficiaries of this Section 8.4, each of whom shall have the right to enforce its rights hereunder individually.
8.4.4Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall obtain a prepaid “tail” policy of its existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy for a period ending no earlier than the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time.
8.5Further Assurances. Each Party hereto, at the reasonable request and expense of any other Party hereto, shall execute and deliver such other instruments and do and perform such other acts and things as may be necessary or reasonably desirable for effecting the consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.
8.6Third Party Consents. As soon as practicable following the Option Exercise Date, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts (and the Parent shall cooperate) to obtain any consents, waivers or approvals (including, for the avoidance of doubt, payment of any funds required in connection therewith) under each of the contracts set forth in Section 5.3.2 of the Company Disclosure Schedule, including any consents, waivers or approvals (including, for the avoidance of doubt, payment of any funds required in connection therewith) set forth in Schedule 11.3.12 hereto.
8.7Tax Matters.
8.7.1Pre-Closing Tax Returns. Company shall prepare and file all Tax Returns of the Relevant Companies for any taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date that are due before the Closing Date. Such Tax Returns shall be prepared consistently with past practice unless otherwise required by Applicable Laws. With respect to any income Tax Returns, Company shall submit a copy of any such Tax Returns to the Parent for its review and comment a reasonable period before the due date for filing such Tax Returns, and Company shall consider in good faith all reasonable comments made by the Parent with respect to such Tax Returns.
- 57 -

8.7.2Preparation and Filing Tax Returns Relating to Pre-Closing Period to be Filed after the Closing Date. The Parent shall prepare or cause to be prepared all Tax Returns for the Relevant Companies that are required to be filed after the Closing Date. With respect to such Tax Returns applicable to taxable periods that end on or prior to the Closing Date (but are due after the Closing Date), (i) Company shall bear the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses associated with the preparation of such Tax Returns (which shall be deemed a Transaction Expense) and (ii) each Relevant Company shall exercise reasonable commercial efforts to be consistent with its prior practice unless otherwise required by Applicable Laws in initiating preparation of (or causing the initiation of preparing) such Tax Returns such that such Tax Returns may be timely filed by the Parent or the Relevant Companies after the Closing Date; provided, however, that the Parent agrees that all Transaction Expenses “more likely than not” (or a greater level of certainty) to be allocable to the taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date shall be treated as arising in such taxable period. The Parent and the Company shall, to the extent permitted or required under applicable Law, treat the Closing Date as the last day of the Tax period of the Company for all Tax purposes, and the Parent shall cause the Company to join the Parent’s “consolidated group” (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-1(h)) effective on the day after the Closing Date. The Parent agrees that neither the Parent, the Company nor their Subsidiaries shall make an election under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-76(b)(2)(ii)(D) to ratably allocate items (or make any similar election or ratably allocate items under any corresponding provision of state, local or foreign Law). With respect to any income Tax Return relating to a pre-Closing period required to be filed after the Closing Date that would reasonably be expected to result in a liability for which the Parent would be entitled to indemnification under Section 9.1, at least 30 days prior to filing any such Tax Return, the Parent shall provide the Stockholder Representative with (A) a draft of each such Tax Return, (B) a statement of any Taxes owed in connection with the filing of such Tax Return and (C) all workpapers and other books, records and other documents and computations reasonably requested by the Stockholder Representative in connection with such Tax Return, and the Stockholder Representative shall be entitled to review and comment on any such Tax Return before it is filed, and the Parent shall make such changes to such Tax Return as the Stockholder Representative may reasonably request. In the event the Stockholder Representative objects to a Tax Return and the Parties cannot resolve the objection before the filing deadline of such Tax Return (with extensions), (i) the Parent shall prepare and file such Tax Return in a manner that it, in good faith, deems to be correct under applicable Law, (ii) the matter shall be resolved by an independent accounting firm agreed upon by the Parties and (iii) if the resolution agreed upon by the Parties require that such Tax Return be filed differently, the Parties shall cause an amended Tax Return to be prepared and filed. In the case of any other such Tax Return that would reasonably be expected to result in a liability for which the Parent would be entitled to indemnification under Section 9.1, the Parent shall permit the Stockholder Representative to review and comment on such Tax Return prior to filing and shall consider in good faith such changes as are reasonably requested by the Stockholder Representative. The Parent shall cause such Tax Returns to be filed and shall cause to be remitted with such Tax Returns any Taxes shown due, subject to indemnification in accordance with Section 8.7.3.
8.7.3Straddle Periods. The Company and the Parent shall cause the Relevant Companies to, unless prohibited by applicable law, close their respective taxable periods as of the end of the Closing Date. If applicable law does not permit Company or Relevant Companies to close its taxable year as of the end of the Closing Date or in any case in which a Tax is assessed with respect to a taxable period which includes the Closing Date (but does not end as of the end of that day) (a “Straddle Period”), the Taxes, if any, attributable to a Straddle Period shall be allocated (i) to the period up to and including the Closing Date or (ii) to the period subsequent to the Closing Date, in each case, as set forth in this Section 8.7.3. Except as set forth in the next sentence, any allocation of income or deductions required to determine any Taxes attributable to a Straddle Period shall be made by means of a closing of the books and records of the Relevant Companies as of the end of the Closing Date; provided, that exemptions, allowances or deductions that are calculated on an annual basis (including depreciation and amortization deductions) shall be allocated between the period ending on the Closing Date and the period after the Closing Date in proportion to the number of calendar days in each such period. For purposes of determining the amount of income Taxes attributable to the period up to and including the end of the Closing Date, the income amounts under Sections 951, 951A and 956 of the Code shall be computed consistently as if the tax year of any controlled foreign corporation had ended on the Closing Date. In the case of any Taxes of the Relevant Companies imposed on a periodic basis (including real property and ad valorem Taxes) the allocation described in this Section 8.7.3 shall be made based on the number of calendar days during the Straddle Period on or before the Closing Date, on the one hand, and the number of calendar days in the Straddle Period after the Closing Date, on the other hand. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Taxes relating to any transactions not in the ordinary course of business of the Relevant Companies that occur after the time of the Closing on the Closing Date shall be treated as occurring on the day after the Closing Date.
- 58 -

8.7.4Except as provided in Section 8.7.2 or 8.7.5, after the Effective Time, none of the Parent, the Company or any Relevant Company shall (i) file, or permit to be filed, or amend or otherwise modify, or permit to be amended or otherwise modified, any Tax Return for any period beginning prior to the Closing Date, in each case except to the extent the original Tax Return or position thereon or decision not to file a Tax Return or take such position thereon, as the case may be, is not “more likely than not” correct (or a greater level of certainty) and Parent, the Company or any Relevant Company provides prior written notice thereof, including a reasonable explanation and supporting materials, to the Stockholder Representative; (ii) discuss, correspond, participate in any sponsored voluntary compliance, amnesty, self-correction or similar program, negotiate, make or initiate any voluntary contact with any Governmental Entity or representative thereof with respect to, or settle with any Governmental Entity or representative thereof, any Tax liability of the Company or any Relevant Company with respect to any period beginning prior to the Closing Date or that may affect the Tax liability of the Company Holders for any period, in each case except to the extent the original Tax Return or position thereon or decision not to file a Tax Return or take such position thereon, as the case may be, is not “more likely than not” correct (or a greater level of certainty) and Parent, the Company or any Relevant Company provides prior written notice thereof, including a reasonable explanation and supporting materials, to the Stockholder Representative; (iii) extend or waive, or cause to be extended or waived, any statute of limitations or other period for the assessment of any Tax or deficiency related to any period beginning prior to the Closing Date; or (iv) make any Tax election that has retroactive effect to any period or portion of any period beginning prior to the Closing Date, in each case without the prior written approval of the Stockholder Representative, which shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, that in the case of clause (i) or (ii), that the withholding of consent shall not be reasonable if the Parent has reasonably determined that the positions do not meet the “more likely than not” standard and has provided prior written notice thereof, including a reasonable explanation and supporting materials, to the Stockholder Representative. The Parent shall not make or permit to be made any election under Section 338 of the Code or Section 336(e) of the Code (or any similar provision under state, local, or foreign Law) with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
8.7.5The Company Holders shall be entitled to receive the benefit of any refunds or credits of any Taxes for any taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date or the portion of any Straddle Period ending at the end of the Closing Date (including any interest in respect thereof, and including any reduction of Taxes for any taxable period beginning on or after the Closing Date or the portion of any Straddle Period ending after the Closing Date as a result of application of any refund or credit against such Taxes), and the Parent shall cause the amount of any refunds or credits of Taxes (including interest and net of any costs, expenses or Taxes incurred in obtaining such refund or credit or making such payment) to which the Company Holders are entitled under this Section 8.7.5, but which are received by or credited to the Parent, the Company or any Relevant Company after the Closing Date, to be paid to the Payments Administrator (for further distribution to the Company Holders), within five Business Days following the Parent’s receipt of any such refund or credit, except to the extent any such refund or credit was taken into account in determining Final Working Capital.
8.7.6The Parties hereto shall cooperate with each other in connection with the preparation and timely filing of any Tax Returns of the Relevant Companies required to be prepared and filed or in connection with the preparation or filing of any election, claim for refund, consent or certification (or any audit, proceedings or other Tax-related claims of or affecting a Relevant Company (each a “Tax Contest”)), and allowing the Stockholder Representative to review Tax Returns to determine or verify the proper amounts payable hereunder. Such cooperation shall include, upon request, providing records and information that are reasonably relevant to any such matters, making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information, and explaining any materials provided pursuant to this Section 8.7. The Parent and its Affiliates (including the Relevant Companies) shall not destroy or dispose of any Tax workpapers, schedules or other materials and documents supporting Tax Returns of the Relevant Companies respecting any taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date or the portion of any Straddle Period ending at the end of the Closing Date until the seventh anniversary of the Closing Date. If there is any Tax Contest after the Closing Date with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Return and would reasonably be expected to give rise to a claim for indemnification under Article 9, then (i) the Stockholder Representative shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to control the defense and conduct of such Tax Contest at the expense of the Company Holders, by delivering a written notice of its intent to the Parent within 10 Business Days of receiving written notice of such Tax Contest, (ii) if the Stockholder Representative elects to control such Tax Contest in accordance with the preceding clause, the Parent shall have the right to participate in such Tax Contest at its own expense, (iii) if the Stockholder Representative does not notify the Parent of its intent to control such Tax Contest in accordance with (i), the Parent shall have the right to control the defense and conduct of such Tax Contest and the Stockholder Representative shall have the right to participate in such Tax Contest at the expense of the
- 59 -

Company Holders, and (iv) the Parties shall not settle, compromise and/or concede such Tax Contest without the written consent of the other Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Stockholder Representative shall have no access to any consolidated, combined, unitary, or similar, federal, state, local or foreign jurisdiction income Tax Returns in which the Company is included (in whole or in part) and with respect to which the Parent is a member, or any work papers, documents, books, records, data, or other information pertaining thereto, filed by the Parent and its Affiliates, except as it reasonably relates to the Relevant Companies.
8.7.7Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.7.6, the Parent shall have the exclusive right to control the audit or litigation, and disposition thereof, of any Tax Return, however, the Stockholder Representative on behalf of the Company Holders shall have the right to participate in the audit or litigation, and approve the disposition thereof (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed), of any Tax Return relating to the periods (or portions thereof) beginning before the Closing Date if, and to the extent that such audit or litigation, or disposition thereof, could give rise to a claim for indemnification under Article 9.
8.7.8All Transfer Taxes (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with this Agreement shall be paid equally by the Company Holders, on the one hand, and by the Parent, on the other hand. The Parties (other than the Stockholder Representative) agree to reasonably cooperate to minimize such Transfer Taxes to the extent permitted under applicable Law.
8.8Notification of Certain Matters. During the Option Period, the Company shall give written notice to the Parent promptly after becoming aware of, and use commercially reasonable efforts to remedy promptly, any of the following: (i) the occurrence, or failure to occur, of any event that has caused any representation or warranty of the Company under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to be untrue or inaccurate in any material respect (or, in the case of representations and warranties that are qualified by materiality, Company Material Adverse Effect or similar phrase, or in the case of any Fundamental Company Representations, in any respect), (ii) the failure of the Company to comply with, or satisfy in any material respect, any covenant of the Company under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or (iii) the occurrence, or failure to occur, of any event that has resulted or will result in the failure of a condition precedent set forth in Section 11.1 or Section 11.3 to be satisfied. During the Option Period, the Parent shall give written notice to the Company promptly after becoming aware of, and use commercially reasonable efforts to remedy promptly, any of the following: (x) the occurrence, or failure to occur, of any event that has caused any representation or warranty of the Parent or the Merger Sub under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to be untrue or inaccurate in any material respect (or, in the case of representations and in the case of warranties that are qualified by materiality, Parent Material Adverse Effect or similar phrase, in any respect), (y) the failure of the Parent or the Merger Sub to comply with, or satisfy in any material respect, any covenant of the Parent or the Merger Sub under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or (z) the occurrence, or failure to occur, of any event that has resulted or, to the Company’s Knowledge, will result in the failure of a condition precedent set forth in Section 11.1 or Section 11.2 to be satisfied. No such notification shall affect the representations or warranties of the Parties or the conditions to their respective obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event that following the Closing a Party has a claim for indemnification pursuant to Article 9 with respect to a breach of a representation, warranty or covenant of which any other Party was required to notify such Party pursuant to this Section 8.8, the sole recourse of such Party for Damages arising from such breach shall be pursuant to Article 9, and any liability accruing to any Party failing to make such notification under this Section 8.8 shall only be for actual damages in excess of Damages actually recovered pursuant to Article 9 with respect to such breach. During the Option Period, as soon as reasonably practicable but no later than 120 days following the end of each fiscal year, the Company shall provide the Parent with the audited balance sheet of the Company and each non-consolidated Company Subsidiary as of the end of such fiscal year and the related audited statements of operations and cash flows for the year then ended.
8.9Access and Information.

- 60 -

however, that such investigation shall not unreasonably disrupt the Company’s operations and (ii) to such Representatives for the Company as the Parent may reasonably request access for purposes of its continuing due diligence with respect to the Company, provided that the Parent shall exercise this right of access no more than once in any calendar quarter during the Option Period. The Company shall cause its accountants to cooperate with the Parent and its Representatives in making available all financial information reasonably requested by them, including the right to examine all working papers pertaining to all financial statements prepared by such accountants. During the Option Period, the Company shall generally keep the Parent informed as to all material matters involving the operations and businesses of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to disclose any information if such disclosure would contravene any applicable Law. For the avoidance of doubt, all information provided to or obtained by the Parent pursuant to this Section 8.9 shall be deemed Company Confidential Information for purposes of this Agreement.

Any Claim Notice shall contain a reasonably detailed summary of the factual basis for the Claim, the provision or provisions of this Agreement or other Transaction Document under which indemnification is sought and, if known, the estimated amount of the maximum Damages incurred or reasonably expected to be incurred by the Indemnified Party. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 9.7, no delay or deficiency on the part of the Parent or the Stockholder Representative, as applicable, in so notifying the other shall limit any right of any Indemnified Party to indemnification under this Article 9, except to the extent such failure materially prejudices the Parent, on the one hand, or the Stockholder Representative, on the other hand, as may be applicable. Following the delivery of a Claim Notice to the Stockholder Representative, the Parent shall make available to the Stockholder Representative and its representatives and agents access (including electronic access, to the extent available) as they may reasonably require to the books and records of the Surviving Corporation and access to such
- 67 -

personnel or representatives of the Surviving Corporation and the Parent that are under the direct or indirect control of the Parent, including but not limited to individuals responsible for the matters that are subject of the Claim Notice, at reasonable times and upon reasonable notice to the Parent for the purposes of investigating or resolving any disputes or responding to any matters or inquiries raised in the Claim Notice.
9.7.2If the Stockholder Representative does not, in the case of a Parent Claim, or the Parent does not, in the case of a Holder Claim, dispute in writing the basis or amount of the applicable Claim within 30 days of receiving written notice thereof, (i) the Parent, in the case of a Parent Claim, shall have the right to recover such Damages in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents promptly, or (ii) the Stockholder Representative, in the case of a Holder Claim, shall have the right to recover such Damages on behalf of the applicable Holder Indemnified Parties from the Parent promptly.
9.7.3If the Parent disputes, in the case of a Holder Claim, or the Stockholder Representative disputes, in the case of a Parent Claim, the basis or amount of the Claim specified in the Claim Notice, then within 30 days of receiving written notice thereof, the Parent or the Stockholder Representative, as applicable, shall give written notice to the other of such dispute (which written notice shall contain a reasonably detailed summary of the basis for such dispute) and (i) the Parent, in the case of a Parent Claim, shall have the right in relation to any undisputed Damages to recover such Damages in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents promptly, or (ii) the Stockholder Representative, in the case of a Holder Claim, shall have the right in relation to any undisputed Damages to recover such Damages on behalf of the applicable Holder Indemnified Parties from the Parent promptly; provided, however, that the Parent or the Stockholder Representative, as the case may be, shall not recover Damages for any disputed amount hereunder until the earlier of, if at all, (a) a court of competent jurisdiction issues an order specifying the right of the applicable Indemnified Parties to recovery hereunder and the amount thereof and (b) the Parent and the Stockholder Representative agree in writing to the amount of the applicable Damages, at which time, (A) the Parent, in the case of a Parent Claim, shall have the right to recover such Damages in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents promptly or (B) the Stockholder Representative, in the case of a Holder Claim, shall have the right to recover such Damages on behalf of the applicable Holder Indemnified Parties from the Parent promptly. For the avoidance of doubt, any such Damages recovered by the Stockholder Representative under Section 9.7 shall be paid to the Payments Administrator for further distribution to the Company Holders.
9.8Defense of Third Party Claims.
9.8.1Notice of Third Party Claim. Promptly after the Parent, in the case of a Parent Claim, or the Stockholder Representative, in the case of a Holder Claim, obtains knowledge of any actual Action that has been brought or asserted in writing by a Third Party or any threatened Action that has been brought or asserted by a Third Party against the Parent or the Stockholder Representative, as applicable, or any other applicable Indemnified Party (a “Third Party Claim”), the Parent or the Stockholder Representative, as applicable, shall promptly give written notice of such Third Party Claim to the other (the “Third Party Claim Notice”), stating the nature and basis of such Third Party Claim and the maximum estimated dollar amount of such Third Party Claim, to the extent known (which estimate may be updated from time to time). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no delay or deficiency on the part of the Parent or the Stockholder Representative, as applicable, in so notifying the other shall limit any right of any Indemnified Party to indemnification under this Article 9, except to the extent such failure materially prejudices the defense of such Action.
9.8.2Election to Defend. The Stockholder Representative shall have the right to assume and control the defense of any Third Party Claim that is only for monetary damages, by the Stockholder Representative’s own counsel, which shall be reasonably acceptable to the Parent, upon written notice (the “Election to Defend”) to the Parent to that effect within 15 Business Days after the Stockholder Representative’s receipt of the Third Party Claim Notice. In the event that the Stockholder Representative assumes the defense of any Third Party Claims, subject to Section 9.8.3: (i) the attorneys’ fees, other professionals’ and experts’ fees and court or arbitration costs incurred by the Stockholder Representative in connection with defending such Third Party Claim are to be paid out of the Stockholder Representative Reimbursement Fund; and (ii) the Parent shall have the right, at its own cost and expense, to participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing: (A) if in the reasonable opinion of the Parent, there is a conflict of interest between any Company Holder and the Stockholder Representative, on the one hand, and the Parent Indemnified Parties, on the other hand, then the reasonable cost of one separate legal counsel and, if necessary, one separate local counsel in the jurisdiction in which the action is located, for the Parent shall be reimbursed by the Stockholder Representative out of the
- 68 -

Stockholder Representative Reimbursement Fund; (B) the Stockholder Representative may not maintain control of the defense, appeal or settlement of any claim of infringement brought by a Third Party against any Relevant Company in connection with the development, manufacturing, licensing, marketing, importation, offer for sale, sale or use of any Product or Company Intellectual Property; and (C) the Stockholder Representative may not maintain control of the defense, appeal or settlement of any Third Party Claim if the Stockholder Representative fails to defend in good faith the Third Party Claim. If the Stockholder Representative chooses not to defend any Third Party Claim by failure to deliver on a timely basis the Election to Defend, the Parent may defend against such Third Party Claim and, subject to Section 9.8.3, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim in any manner it may deem appropriate, and thereafter seek indemnification pursuant to this Article 9 for Damages resulting from such Third Party Claim. The Stockholder Representative and the Parent shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any Third Party Claim, including using commercially reasonable efforts to make available access (including electronic access, to the extent available) to personnel and all books, records and other documents and materials that are under the direct or indirect control of such Party or any of its Subsidiaries or other Affiliates, without expense (other than reimbursement of actual out-of-pocket expenses), at reasonable times and upon reasonable notice, to the defending party, as may be reasonably requested for the defense and preparation of the defense of such Third Party Claim.
9.8.3Withhold Consent to Settlement. Neither the Company Holders nor the Stockholder Representative shall settle or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed if such settlement agreement (i) provides a full and unconditional release of the Parent Indemnified Parties, (ii) does not include any finding or admission of a violation of Law or violation of the rights of any Person by any Parent Indemnified Parties or any of their Affiliates, and (iii) does not impose on the Parent Indemnified Parties or any of their Affiliates any obligation other than an obligation to pay monetary damages in an amount less than or equal to the aggregate cash amount remaining in the Indemnity Escrow Fund; provided, that if the Parent fails to consent to any such proposed settlement or judgment within 15 Business Days after notice of the same is delivered by the Stockholder Representative, the maximum liability of the Company Holders as to such Third Party Claim shall not exceed that which would have been payable by the Company Holders had such proposed settlement or judgment been effected). No Parent Indemnified Party shall settle or consent to the entry of a judgment with respect to such Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Stockholder Representative (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), unless the Parent Indemnified Party is no longer seeking, and will not in the future seek, indemnification in respect of such Third Party Claim and acknowledges the same in writing to the Stockholder Representative.
9.9Tax Treatment of Indemnity Payments. Any payment made pursuant to this Article 9 shall be treated as an adjustment to the Total Merger Consideration for all Tax purposes unless otherwise required by applicable Law.
9.10Offsets. The amount of any Damages for which indemnification is provided under this Agreement shall be reduced on a dollar for dollar basis to take into account (i) any amounts actually recovered by the Indemnified Party under insurance policies with respect to such Damages in excess of the sum of (A) reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses relating to collection under such policies, (B) any deductible associated therewith to the extent paid, and (C) any increase in the insurance premium of the Indemnified Party resulting or reasonably anticipated to result therefrom, (ii) any cash recoveries actually received from Third Parties pursuant to indemnification with respect thereto, net of any expenses incurred by the Party seeking indemnification in obtaining payment from such Third Party; provided, that the Party seeking indemnification shall have no duty to pursue payment from any Third Party, and (iii) the net amount of any Tax benefits actually realized by the Parent or its Affiliates (including the Relevant Companies) on account of such Damages, provided, that, if such Tax benefit is actually realized after the applicable indemnity payment is made pursuant to this Article 9 without reduction by such Tax benefit, the Parent and its Affiliates (including the Relevant Companies) shall promptly pay to the Payments Administrator for the benefit of the Company Holders the amount of such Tax benefit at such time or times as (and to the extent that) such Tax benefit is actually realized by the Parent or its Affiliates (including the Relevant Companies) in the taxable year in which the Damages occurred or the next succeeding taxable year (excluding any stub- or shortened taxable years).
9.11Knowledge. The right to indemnification or other remedy based upon any representation or warranty set forth in this Agreement will not be affected by any investigation conducted or any knowledge acquired at any time, whether before or after the Execution Date or before or after the Closing Date, with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of, or compliance with, such representation or warranty.
- 69 -

9.12No Double Remedy. Notwithstanding the fact that any Party may have the right to assert claims for indemnification under or in respect of more than one provision of this Agreement in respect to any specific fact, event, condition or circumstance, no Party will be entitled to recover the amount of any Damages suffered by such Party more than once under this Agreement in respect of such specific fact, event, condition or circumstance.

- 70 -

Services LLC, a Colorado limited liability company, or such other person as is reasonably acceptable to Parent, as the “Stockholder Representative” and deliver to Parent a signed joinder of the Stockholder Representative agreeing to the terms and conditions applicable to the Stockholder Representative set forth in this Agreement. All Company Holders, by voting in favor of the adoption of this Agreement, the approval of the principal terms of the Option, the approval of the principal terms of the Merger, and the consummation of the Merger, participation in the Merger or acceptance of any portion of the Total Merger Consideration pursuant to this Agreement, irrevocably nominate and appoint, and, in each Company Holder’s Letter of Transmittal shall expressly and irrevocably nominate and appoint the Stockholder Representative as their exclusive agent, attorney-in-fact and representative (with full power of substitution), with the right to: (i) take all action necessary, desirable or expressly permitted by this Agreement or any other Transaction Document; (ii) without limiting the foregoing, take all action in connection with the defense, prosecution or settlement of any dispute pursuant to Article 3 or any Claim pursuant to Article 9; (iii) give and receive all notices required or permitted to be given under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents; (iv) contract with organizational stockholder representative vendors to perform the duties and responsibilities of the Stockholder Representative hereunder; and (v) take all actions necessary or appropriate in the good faith judgment of the Stockholder Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing. By the Stockholder Representative’s execution of this Agreement, the Stockholder Representative hereby accepts such appointment.
10.2Resignation; Replacement. The Stockholder Representative may resign at any time upon not less than 10 days prior written notice to the Parent. In the event that the Stockholder Representative dies, becomes unable to perform the responsibilities of the Stockholder Representative hereunder or resigns from such position (“Terminating Stockholder Representative”), the Company Holders representing at least two-thirds of the outstanding shares of Company Capital Stock immediately prior to Closing shall elect another representative to fill such vacancy, and such substituted representative shall be deemed to be the Stockholder Representative in place of the Terminating Stockholder Representative for all purposes of this Agreement. If the position of Stockholder Representative shall remain vacant for more than 60 days, the Parent may designate any Company Holder as a Stockholder Representative in place of the Terminating Stockholder Representative and such Company Holder shall serve as the Stockholder Representative until the Company Holders shall elect a successor pursuant to this Section 10.2. The immunities and rights to indemnification granted by the Company Holders in favor of the Stockholder Representative in this Article 10 shall survive the resignation or removal of Stockholder Representative and the Closing and/or any termination of this Agreement, the Payments Administration Agreement and the Escrow Agreement.
10.3Decisions and Actions Binding. All decisions, instructions, consents and actions by the Stockholder Representative, including the defense, prosecution or settlement of any dispute pursuant to Article 3 or any Claim pursuant to Article 9, shall be final, binding and conclusive upon all of the Company Holders, and no Company Holder shall have the right to object, dissent, protest or otherwise contest the same, or any cause of action against any Stockholder Representative for any action taken or not taken, decision made or instruction given by the Stockholder Representative under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, except for fraud, gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith by the Stockholder Representative.
10.4Actions of the Stockholder Representative.
10.4.1The Parent and the Escrow Agent shall be able to rely conclusively on the actions, instructions, decisions and consents of the Stockholder Representative being the actions, instructions, decisions or consents of each Company Holder. The Parent, the Surviving Corporation and the Escrow Agent are hereby relieved from any Liability to any Person for any acts done by Stockholder Representative and any acts done by the Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Escrow Agent in reliance upon any such action, instruction, decision and consent of the Stockholder Representative. After the Closing, notices or communications to or from the Stockholder Representative constitute notices or communications to or from each Company Holder for all purposes under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, as applicable. Each Company Holder hereby agrees to receive correspondence from the Stockholder Representative, including in electronic form. Without limiting any rights or remedies of the Parent or the Merger Sub under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, as between the Stockholder Representative and the Company Holders, the Stockholder Representative shall be entitled to: (i) rely upon the Closing Payment Spreadsheet, (ii) rely upon any signature reasonably believed by it to be genuine, and (iii) reasonably assume that a signatory has proper authorization to sign on behalf of the applicable Company Holder or other party. The Stockholder Representative will incur no liability of any kind with respect to any action or omission by the Stockholder Representative in connection with the Stockholder Representative’s services pursuant to this Agreement and any agreements ancillary hereto, except in the event of liability directly resulting from the Stockholder
- 71 -

Representative’s fraud, gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith. The Stockholder Representative shall not be liable for any action or omission pursuant to the advice of counsel.
10.4.2Each Company Holder shall indemnify and hold harmless the Stockholder Representative from any losses, liabilities, damages, claims, penalties, fines, forfeitures, actions, fees, costs and expenses (including the fees and expenses of counsel and experts and their staffs and all expense of document location, duplication and shipment) (collectively, the “Stockholder Representative Expenses”) arising out of or in connection with the Stockholder Representative’s execution and performance of this Agreement or any Transaction Document or the Stockholder Representative’s actions hereunder or thereunder, in each case as such Stockholder Representative Expense is suffered or incurred; provided, that in the event that any such Stockholder Representative Expense is finally adjudicated to have been directly caused by the fraud, gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of the Stockholder Representative, the Stockholder Representative will reimburse the Company Holders the amount of such indemnified Stockholder Representative Expense to the extent attributable to such fraud, gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith. If not paid directly to the Stockholder Representative by the Company Holders, any such Stockholder Representative Expense may be recovered by the Stockholder Representative from (i) the funds in the Stockholder Representative Reimbursement Fund, (ii) the amounts in the Indemnity Escrow Fund at such time as remaining amounts would otherwise be distributable to the Company Holders, (iii) from any Milestone Payments at such time as any such amounts would otherwise be distributable to the Company Holders, and (iv) from the Company Holders; provided, that while this section allows the Stockholder Representative to be paid from the aforementioned sources of funds, this does not relieve the Company Holders from their obligation to promptly pay such Stockholder Representative Expenses as they are suffered or incurred, nor does it prevent the Stockholder Representative from seeking any remedies available to it at law or otherwise. In no event will the Stockholder Representative be required to advance its own funds on behalf of the Company Holders or otherwise. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any restrictions or limitations on liability or indemnification obligations of the Company Holders set forth elsewhere in this Agreement are not intended to be applicable to the indemnities provided to the Stockholder Representative under this Section 10.4.
10.4.3The power of attorney, immunities and rights to indemnification granted by the Company Holders in favor of the Stockholder Representative in this Article 10 are irrevocable and coupled with an interest, may be delegated by the Stockholder Representative, shall survive the bankruptcy, liquidation, death or incapacity of any Company Holder, and shall be enforceable notwithstanding any rights or remedies that any Company Holder may have in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.
10.5Payment of Expenses.
10.5.1The Stockholder Representative Reimbursement Fund will be used for the purposes of paying directly, or reimbursing the Stockholder Representative for, any third party expenses pursuant to this Agreement and any other Transaction Document. The Stockholder Representative Reimbursement Fund shall be held by the Stockholder Representative as agent and for the benefit of the Company Holders in a segregated client account. The Company Holders will not receive any interest or earnings on the Stockholder Representative Reimbursement Fund and irrevocably transfer to the Stockholder Representative any ownership right that they may otherwise have had in any such interest or earnings. The Stockholder Representative will hold the Stockholder Representative Reimbursement Fund separate from its corporate funds and will not voluntarily make it available to its creditors in the event of bankruptcy. The Stockholder Representative is not providing any investment supervision, recommendations or advice and shall have no responsibility or liability for any loss of principal of the Stockholder Representative Reimbursement Fund other than as a result of its gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Stockholder Representative is not acting as a withholding agent or in any similar capacity in connection with the Stockholder Representative Reimbursement Fund, and has no tax reporting or income distribution obligations hereunder. The costs of establishing and maintaining the Stockholder Representative Reimbursement Fund shall be paid by the Company Holders. For tax purposes, the Stockholder Representative Reimbursement Fund will be treated as having been received and voluntarily set aside by the Company Holders at the time of the Closing.
10.5.2The Stockholder Representative, upon written notice that is received by the Parent no later than three Business Days prior to the relevant distributions by the Parent being made to the Payments Administrator, shall be entitled to cause the Parent to deposit with the Stockholder Representative all or a portion of the proceeds of any Milestone Payment (which has become payable to the Company Holders pursuant to Section 3.2.1) prior to the Parent making any distribution of such Milestone Payment to the
- 72 -

Payments Administrator for further distribution to the Company Holders as provided herein solely for purposes of (i) replenishing the Stockholder Representative Reimbursement Fund or (ii) reimbursing the Stockholder Representative for the amount of any expenses of the Stockholder Representative previously paid by the Stockholder Representative and not discharged out of the Stockholder Representative Reimbursement Fund. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Parties acknowledge that any amounts that the Parent Indemnified Parties are entitled to deduct from any Milestone Payment pursuant to Article 9 above shall have priority over any deductions pursuant to this Section 10.5.2. Any remaining Stockholder Representative Reimbursement Fund after satisfaction of all such costs and expenses shall be distributed to each of the Company Holders as provided in Article 4.
10.6Provision of Information. The Parent agrees that, upon reasonable notice, it will cooperate with and use reasonable efforts to make available (including by electronic means, to the extent reasonably available) to the Stockholder Representative for inspection and copying, during normal business hours, those of the Surviving Corporation’s books and records retained and remaining in existence after the Effective Time which are reasonably necessary in connection with any Tax inquiry, audit, investigation or dispute, any litigation or investigation or any other similar matter involving a holder of record of shares of Company Capital Stock as of immediately prior to the Effective Time. The Parent shall use reasonable efforts to transmit financial statements, general journal and trial balances of the Company in formats such as Excel spreadsheets or searchable Word or .pdf documents. The Stockholder Representative (on behalf of the Company Holders) shall bear all of the costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred in connection with providing such access to such books and records. Except as provided in the next sentence, this Section 10.6 shall not create any obligation on the part of the Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any Affiliate to retain any such books and records for any particular length of time, in any particular location or in any particular format. The Parent shall retain or cause the Surviving Corporation to retain, until the applicable statutes of limitations (including any extensions) have expired, copies of all Tax Returns, supporting work schedules, and other Tax records for all tax periods, or portions thereof, ending on or before the Closing Date.

Except with respect to the Stockholder Representative’s right to enforce the terms of Article 10 against the Company Holders, this Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claims or causes of action that may arise out of this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement may only be made against the Persons that are parties to this Agreement in their capacities as such, and, except as set forth in Article 10 with respect to the rights of the Stockholder Representative contained therein, no former, current or future equityholders, controlling persons, directors, officers, employees, agents or Affiliates of any Party, or any former, current or future equityholder, controlling person, director, officer, employee, agent or Affiliate of any of the foregoing shall have any liabilities for any obligations or liabilities of the parties to this Agreement for any claims or causes of action arising out of this Agreement or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement.
13.7Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction. This Agreement and all matters arising out of or relating hereto, including its validity, construction and interpretation, shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware (including in respect of the statute of limitations or other limitations period applicable to any claim, controversy or dispute), without regard to the laws as to choice or conflicts of law. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably (i) submits itself to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware (or in the event, but only in the event, that such court does not have subject matter jurisdiction over such action or proceeding, the Superior Court of the State of Delaware or the United States District Court for the District of Delaware) for the purpose of any Action directly or indirectly based upon, relating to or arising out of this
- 78 -

Agreement or the Merger or the negotiation, execution or performance hereof or thereof; (ii) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court; and (iii) agrees that it will not bring any Action relating to this Agreement or the Merger in any court other than the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware (or in the event, but only in the event, that such court does not have subject matter jurisdiction over such action or proceeding, in the Superior Court of the State of Delaware or the United States District Court for the District of Delaware). Each of the parties hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any Action with respect to this Agreement, (A) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts for any reason other than the failure to serve in accordance with this Section 13.7, (B) any claim that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise), and (C) to the fullest extent permitted by the applicable Law, any claim that (1) the suit, action or proceeding in such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (2) the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper, or (3) this Agreement, or the subject matter of this Agreement, may not be enforced in or by such courts. Each of the parties hereby irrevocably consents to service being made through the notice procedures set forth in Section 13.3 and agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or documents by personal delivery to the respective addresses set forth in Section 13.3 shall be effective service of process for any litigation in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. Nothing in this Section 13.7 shall affect the right of any party to serve legal process in any other matter permitted by Law.
13.8Specific Performance. The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur, no adequate remedy at law would exist and damages would be difficult to determine in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement. Each of the Parties hereby agrees to waive: (i) the defense that an adequate remedy at law exists or that specific performance or equitable or injunctive relief is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to law or inequitable for any reason with respect to any breach of this Agreement; and (ii) any requirement under any Law to post a bond or other security as a prerequisite to obtaining equitable relief. The equitable remedies described in this Section 13.8 shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other remedies at law or in equity that the parties to this Agreement may elect to pursue.
13.9Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ALL RIGHTS TO A 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 ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS BEEN INFORMED BY THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO THAT THIS SECTION 13.9 CONSTITUTES A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT UPON WHICH THEY ARE RELYING AND SHALL RELY IN ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT. ANY PARTY HERETO MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION 13.9 WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF EACH SUCH PARTY TO THE WAIVER OF ITS RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.
13.10Disclosure Schedules. The Company has provided a schedule of exceptions to the representations and warranties set forth in Article 5, attached hereto (the “Company Disclosure Schedule”). Any information set forth in any Section or Subsection of the Company Disclosure Schedule shall be deemed to be disclosed for purposes of such Section or Subsection and for purposes of each other Section and Subsection of the Company Disclosure Schedule (whether or not specific cross-references are made), in each case, solely to the extent that is reasonably apparent on the face of such disclosure that it also qualifies or applies to such other Section or Subsection. Nothing in the Company Disclosure Schedule is intended to broaden the scope of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement or to create any covenant. No reference to or disclosure of any item or other matter in the Company Disclosure Schedule shall: (i) represent a determination that such item or other matter is material (or otherwise establish a standard of materiality) or that such item or matter is required to be referred to or disclosed in the Company Disclosure Schedule; and (ii) represent a determination that such item or other matter did not arise in the ordinary course of business. The information contained in the Company Disclosure Schedule is provided solely for purposes of making disclosures to the Parent and the Merger Sub under this Agreement. In disclosing such information, the Company does not waive any attorney-client privilege associated with such information or any protection afforded by the work-product doctrine with respect to any of the matters disclosed or discussed in the Company Disclosure Schedule. For purposes of the Company’s representations and warranties on and as of
- 79 -

the Closing Date, “Company Disclosure Schedule” shall mean the Updated Disclosure Schedule most recently delivered by the Company to the Parent.
13.11Entire Agreement; Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement, the other Transaction Documents, their respective Exhibits and Schedules, the certificates referred to in Sections 11.2.1, 11.2.2, 11.3.1, and 11.3.2 hereof and the Company Disclosure Schedule, (i) constitute the entire agreement among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof; and (ii) are not intended to confer upon any other Person any rights or remedies hereunder, except the rights of the Company Indemnitees under Section 8.4 hereof.
13.12Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability and shall not render invalid or unenforceable the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement or affect the validity or enforceability of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction. The Parties further agree to replace such invalid or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that shall achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such invalid or unenforceable provision. If any provision of this Agreement is so broad as to be unenforceable, the provision shall be interpreted to be only so broad as is enforceable.
13.13Mutual Drafting. The Parties have been represented by counsel who have carefully negotiated the provisions hereof. As a consequence, the Parties do not intend that the presumptions of any laws or rules relating to the interpretation of contracts against the drafter of any particular clause should be applied to this Agreement and therefore waive their effects.
13.14Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the Parent, the Merger Sub, the Company and the Stockholder Representative and delivered to the Parent and the Company, it being understood that all such Parties need not sign the same counterpart. The Parties agree that all signatures of the Parties to this Agreement may be transmitted by facsimile or email or other electronic or digital means, and such facsimile, email or other electronic delivery will, for all purposes, be deemed to be the original signature of such Party whose signature it reproduces, and shall be sufficient to bind the Parties to the terms and provisions of this Agreement.
13.15Expenses. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein or in any Transaction Document, all expenses incurred by the Parties hereto shall be borne solely by the Party that has incurred such expenses, provided, that the Parent shall pay all fees of the Payments Administrator in relation to the Payments Administration Agreement and each of the Parent and the Stockholder Representative (through the Stockholder Representative Reimbursement Fund and/or other sources of funds available to the Stockholder Representative therefor as provided in Article 10) shall each pay one-half of all fees of the Escrow Agent. Subject to Section 8.4 hereof, all fees and expenses payable to any counsel or advisor engaged by any Company Holder in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be paid by such Company Holder and shall not be payable by the Parent, the Company, the Stockholder Representative or the Surviving Corporation.
13.16Waiver of Conflict; Communications. Effective as of the Closing, the Parent hereby waives and agrees not to assert, and the Parent agrees to cause the Surviving Corporation and each of its Subsidiaries to waive and not to assert, any conflict of interest arising out of or relating to any representation after the Closing (any “Post-Closing Representation”) by Stradling Yocca Carlson & Rauth, P.C. or in-house counsel of the Stockholder Representative, any Company Holder, any of their respective Affiliates or any officer, employee or director of the Stockholder Representative, any Company Holder or the Company (any such Person, a “Designated Person”) in any matter involving this Agreement or any agreement, certificate, instrument or other document executed or delivered pursuant to this Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby (including any litigation, arbitration, mediation or other proceeding and including any matter regarding the negotiation, execution, performance or enforceability hereof or thereof) (the “Current Representation”).
13.17Attorney-Client Privilege. Effective as of the Closing, the Parent hereby agrees not to control or assert, and the Parent agrees to cause the Surviving Corporation and each of its Subsidiaries not to control or assert, in connection with any Post-Closing Representation any attorney-client privilege, work product protection or other similar privilege or protection applicable to any communication between Stradling Yocca
- 80 -

Carlson & Rauth, P.C. or in-house counsel and any Designated Person solely to the extent such communication was made in connection with and relates to the Current Representation, including in connection with a dispute with the Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Affiliates (including, after the Closing, the Relevant Companies), it being the intention of the parties hereto that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 259 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as amended, all rights of the Company or the Surviving Corporation under or with respect to such attorney-client privilege, work product protection or other similar privilege or protection, including the right to waive, assert and otherwise control such attorney-client privilege, work product protection or other similar privilege or protection, shall be (and are hereby) transferred to or retained by (as applicable), and vested solely in, such Designated Person.
