ARTICLE 2
MANNER OF CONVERTING SHARES

2.1. Conversion of Shares.

Subject to the provisions of this ‎ARTICLE 2, at the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Enova, Grasshopper or the stockholders of either of the foregoing, the shares of the consolidated corporations shall be converted as follows:

3

 


 

(a) Each share of capital stock of Enova issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall remain an issued and outstanding share of capital stock of Enova from and after the Effective Time and shall not be affected by the Merger.

(b) All shares of capital stock of Grasshopper issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time that are held by Grasshopper, Grasshopper Bank, Enova or any Enova Subsidiary (in each case other than shares held in any Employee Benefit Plans or related trust accounts or otherwise held in any fiduciary or agency capacity or as a result of debts previously contracted) (collectively, the “Canceled Shares XE "Canceled Shares" ”) shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no payment shall be made with respect thereto.

(c) Subject to Section ‎2.2, each share of Grasshopper Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (excluding the Canceled Shares and the Dissenting Shares) shall be converted, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Agreement, into the right to receive the following consideration from Enova, in each case without interest:

(i) for each share of Grasshopper Common Stock with respect to which an election to receive Enova Common Stock (a “Stock Election XE "Stock Election" ”) has been effectively made and not revoked or deemed revoked pursuant to ‎ARTICLE 3 (collectively, the “Stock Election Shares XE "Stock Election Shares" ”), the Stock Consideration;

(ii) for each share of Grasshopper Common Stock with respect to which an election to receive cash (a “Cash Election XE "Cash Election" ”) has been effectively made and not revoked or deemed revoked pursuant to ‎ARTICLE 3 (collectively, the “Cash Election Shares XE "Cash Election Shares" ”), the Cash Consideration; and

(iii) for each share of Grasshopper Common Stock other than shares with respect to which a Stock Election or a Cash Election has been effectively made and not revoked pursuant to ‎ARTICLE 3 (collectively, the “Non-Election Shares XE "Non-Election Shares" ”), the right to receive Stock Consideration or Cash Consideration as is determined in accordance with Section ‎2.2.

(d) All shares of Grasshopper Common Stock, when so converted pursuant to Section ‎2.1(c), shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and each holder of a certificate (a “Certificate XE "Certificate" ”) or book entry share (a “Book-Entry Share XE "Book-Entry Share" ”) registered in the transfer books of Grasshopper that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented shares of Grasshopper Common Stock shall cease to have any rights with respect to such Grasshopper Common Stock other than the right to receive the Stock Consideration and/or Cash Consideration in accordance with, and subject to, Sections ‎2.1 and ‎2.2 and ‎ARTICLE 3, including the right, if any, to receive the Fractional Share Payment together with the amounts, if any, payable pursuant to Section ‎3.2(d) (collectively, the “Merger Consideration XE "Merger Consideration" ”).

2.2. Proration.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Agreement, the maximum number of Cash Election Shares shall be equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) the total number of shares of Grasshopper Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to Closing, by (ii) 0.5 (the “Cash Election Cap XE "Cash Election Cap" ”). All other shares of Grasshopper Common Stock (excluding Canceled Shares and Dissenting Shares) shall be converted into the right to receive the Stock Consideration.

4

 


 

(b) Within five Business Days after the Closing Date, the Exchange Agent shall effect the allocation among Holders of rights to receive the Cash Consideration or Stock Consideration in accordance with the Election Forms and as set forth in this Section ‎2.2.

(c) Cash Election Number Under Cash Election Cap. If the aggregate number of Cash Election Shares (which, for this purpose, shall be deemed to include the Dissenting Shares determined as of the Effective Time) (the “Cash Election Number XE "Cash Election Number " ”) is less than the Cash Election Cap (the amount by which the Cash Election Cap exceeds the Cash Election Number being referred to herein as the “Shortfall Number XE "Shortfall Floor Number " ”), then:

(i) all Cash Election Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration; and

(ii) all Stock Election Shares and all Non-Election Shares shall be treated in the following manner:

(A) If the number of Non-Election Shares is equal to the Shortfall Number, then all Stock Election Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the Stock Consideration and all Non-Election Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration;

(B) If the number of Non-Election Shares is greater than the Shortfall Number, then all Stock Election Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the Stock Consideration, and the Non-Election Shares of each holder thereof shall be converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration in respect of that number of Non-Election Shares equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the number of Non-Election Shares held by such holder by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Shortfall Number and the denominator of which is the total number of Non-Election Shares, with the remaining number of such holder’s Non-Election Shares being converted into the right to receive the Stock Consideration.

(C) If the number of Non-Election Shares is less than the Shortfall Number, then all Non-Election Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration, and Stock Election Shares of each holder thereof shall be converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration in respect of that number of Stock Election Shares equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the number of Stock Election Shares held by such holder by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount by which the Shortfall Number exceeds the total number of Non-Election Shares, and the denominator of which is the total number of Stock Election Shares, with the remaining number of such holder’s Stock Election Shares being converted into the right to receive the Stock Consideration.

(d) Cash Election Number Over Cash Election Cap. If the Cash Election Number is greater than the Cash Election Cap, then:

(i) all Stock Election Shares and all Non-Election Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the Stock Consideration; and

(ii) the Cash Election Shares of each holder thereof will be converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration in respect of that number of Cash Election Shares equal to the

5

 


 

product obtained by multiplying (A) the number of Cash Election Shares held by such holder by (B) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Cash Election Cap (minus the aggregate number of Dissenting Shares determined as of the Effective Time) and the denominator of which is the Cash Election Number (minus the aggregate Dissenting Shares determined as of the Effective Time), with the remaining number of such holder’s Cash Election Shares being converted into the right to receive the Stock Consideration. For the avoidance of doubt, Dissenting Shares determined as of the Effective Time will not be converted into the right to receive the Stock Consideration.

(e) Cash Election Cap Satisfied. If the number of Cash Election Shares (which, for this purpose, shall be deemed to include the Dissenting Shares determined as of the Effective Time) is equal to the Cash Election Cap, then subparagraphs (c) and (d) above shall not apply and all Cash Election Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration and all Non-Election Shares and Stock Election Shares, shall will be converted into the right to receive the Stock Consideration.

(f) Tax Amendments. If, in the judgment of legal counsel to Enova or to Grasshopper, the application of the provisions of Sections ‎2.2(c) or ‎2.2(d) may reasonably create material and adverse Tax consequences to Enova, Grasshopper, or the stockholders of Grasshopper, then the Parties agree to mutually cooperate to amend or remove these provisions or otherwise mitigate any such material and adverse Tax consequences, so long as such amendment, removal or mitigation is not materially prejudicial to the interests of Enova or the stockholders of Grasshopper.

2.3. Anti-Dilution Provisions.

Without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement and subject to Sections 6.2(d) and 6.2(f), if at any time during the period between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, the issued and outstanding shares of Grasshopper Common Stock or securities convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for shares of Grasshopper Common Stock or the issued and outstanding shares of Enova Common Stock or securities convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for shares of Enova Common Stock, shall have been changed into a different number of shares or a different class by reasons of any reclassification, stock split (including reverse stock split), stock dividend or distribution, reorganization, recapitalization, redenomination, merger, issuer tender or exchange offer or other similar transaction, or there shall be any special or extraordinary dividend or distribution, then, the Merger Consideration shall be equitably and proportionately adjusted, if necessary and without duplication, to reflect fully the effect of any such change and to give holders of Grasshopper Common Stock the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event; provided that, in any case, nothing in this Section 2.3 shall be construed to permit either Party to take any action with respect to its securities that is prohibited by the terms of this Agreement.

2.4. Treatment of Grasshopper Equity Awards.

(a) Grasshopper Stock Options. At the Effective Time, each option granted by Grasshopper to purchase a share of Grasshopper Common Stock under the Grasshopper Stock Plan, whether vested or unvested (a “Grasshopper Stock Option XE "Grasshopper Stock Option" ”), that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, automatically and without any required action on the part of the holder thereof, be fully vested and then canceled and converted into the right to receive from Enova, no later than 10 Business Days following the Closing Date, a cash payment (less any required Tax withholding) equal to the product (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) of (i) the number of shares of Grasshopper Common Stock subject to such Grasshopper Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, multiplied by (ii) the difference, if positive, between the Cash Consideration and the exercise price of the Grasshopper Stock Option. Any Grasshopper Stock Option with an exercise price that equals or

6

 


 

exceeds the Cash Consideration shall be canceled with no consideration being paid to the optionholder with respect to such Grasshopper Stock Option.

(b) Grasshopper Warrants. In accordance with Section 7.19, at the Effective Time, Grasshopper shall ensure that each warrant granted by Grasshopper to purchase shares of Grasshopper Common Stock under any individual award agreement, whether vested or unvested, that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time (a “Grasshopper Warrant XE "Grasshopper Warrant" ”) shall, automatically and without any required action on the part of the holder thereof, be canceled such that the holder thereof shall have no further rights with respect to such Grasshopper Warrant; provided that if prior to the Effective Time the holder thereof executes a warrant cancelation agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Enova (providing a full release of any rights such holder has with respect to a Grasshopper Warrant, other than the right to receive the cash payment described in this Section 2.4(b)) (a “Warrant Cancelation Agreement XE "Warrant Cancelation Agreement" ”), the Grasshopper Warrant subject to such executed Warrant Cancelation Agreement shall instead be canceled and converted into the right to receive from Enova a cash payment (less any required withholding) equal to its Grasshopper Warrant Pro Rata Amount. In no event shall the aggregate amount payable by Enova in respect of the Grasshopper Warrants be more than the Cash Warrant Amount.

(c) As of the Effective Time, the Grasshopper Stock Plan and equity awards shall be terminated, effective as of the Closing Date and contingent upon the occurrence of the Closing, and no further Grasshopper Stock Options, Grasshopper Warrants, shares of restricted stock, restricted stock units, equity interests or other equity awards or rights with respect to shares of capital stock of Grasshopper shall be granted thereunder.

(d) Prior to the Effective Time, Grasshopper, the board of directors of Grasshopper or any committee thereof, as applicable, shall adopt any resolutions and take any actions, and cause any actions to be taken, that are reasonably necessary or advisable to effectuate the provisions of this Section ‎2.4 and Section ‎7.19.

2.5. Fractional Shares.

No certificate, book-entry share or scrip representing fractional shares of Enova Common Stock shall be issued upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, no dividend or distribution of Enova shall be payable on or with respect to any such fractional share interests, and such fractional share interests will not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any other rights of a stockholder of Enova. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each Holder who would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Enova Common Stock pursuant to the Merger (after taking into account all Certificates or Book-Entry Shares delivered by such Holder) shall receive, in lieu thereof, a cash payment (less any required withholding), rounded up to the nearest cent (without interest), which payment shall be determined by multiplying (a) the fraction of a share (rounded to the nearest thousandth when expressed in decimal form) of Enova Common Stock that such Holder would otherwise have been entitled to receive pursuant to Section ‎2.1(c) by (b) the Average Closing Price (the “Fractional Share Payment XE "Fractional Share Payment" ”).

2.6. Statutory Rights of Appraisal.

(a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if required by the DGCL (but only to the extent required thereby), shares of Grasshopper Common Stock that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and which are held by any Holder who has not voted in favor of the adoption of this Agreement or consented thereto in writing and who is entitled to and has properly demanded appraisal rights with respect thereto in accordance with, and who has complied with, Section

7

ARTICLE 3
EXCHANGE OF SHARES

3.1. Election Procedures.

Subject to the terms of the Exchange Agent Agreement, each holder of record of shares of Grasshopper Common Stock (excluding the Canceled Shares and Dissenting Shares) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (a “Holder” XE "Holder" ) shall have the right, subject to the limitations set forth in this ‎ARTICLE 3, to submit an election on or prior to the Election Deadline in accordance with the following procedures:

(a) Each Holder may specify in a request made in accordance with the provisions of this Section ‎3.1 (herein called an “Election” XE "Election" ): (i) the number of shares of Grasshopper Common Stock owned by such Holder with respect to which such Holder desires to make a Cash Election; (ii) the number of shares of Grasshopper Common Stock owned by such Holder with respect to which such Holder desires to make a Stock Election; and (iii) the number of shares of Grasshopper Common Stock owned by such Holder with respect to which such Holder makes no election.

(b) Prior to the Mailing Date, Enova shall appoint an exchange agent (the “Exchange Agent” XE "Exchange Agent" ), for the purpose of receiving Elections and exchanging shares of Grasshopper Common Stock represented by Certificates or Book-Entry Shares for the Merger Consideration, pursuant to an exchange agent agreement entered into prior to the Mailing Date (the “Exchange Agent Agreement” XE "Exchange Agent Agreement" ).

(c) Enova shall, or shall cause the Exchange Agent to, prepare a form reasonably acceptable to Grasshopper (the “Election Form” XE " Election Form " ) (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares to the Exchange Agent, together with a properly completed and duly executed Election Form and related transmittal materials, duly executed on behalf of each Person effecting the surrender of such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, and shall be in such form and have such other provisions as Enova or the Exchange Agent may reasonably specify) so as to permit those Holders to exercise their right to make an Election prior to the Election Deadline.

(d) The Election Form and instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares in exchange for the Merger Consideration shall be mailed on the same date as the Proxy Statement/Prospectus is mailed to Grasshopper stockholders or on such other date as Enova and Grasshopper shall mutually agree (the “Mailing Date” XE "Mailing Date" ) to each Holder of record of a Certificate or Book-Entry Share. Subject to the terms of the Exchange Agent Agreement, any Election shall have been made properly only if the Exchange Agent shall have received, by the Election Deadline, an Election Form and related transmittal materials properly completed and validly executed. As used herein, unless otherwise agreed in advance by Enova and Grasshopper, “Election Deadline” XE "Election Deadline" means 5:00 p.m. local time (in the city in which the principal office of the Exchange Agent is located) on the date that is 60 Business Days following the Mailing Date.

In the event an Election Form is revoked prior to the Election Deadline, unless a subsequent properly completed Election Form together with the revoking Holder’s Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, and related transmittal materials is submitted and actually received by the Exchange Agent by the Election Deadline, the shares of Grasshopper Common Stock represented by such revoked Election Form shall become Non-Election Shares and Enova shall cause the Certificates to be promptly returned without charge to the Holder revoking such prior Election. Subject to the terms of the Exchange Agent Agreement and this Agreement, the Exchange Agent shall have reasonable discretion to determine if any Election is not properly made with respect to any shares of Grasshopper Common Stock and to disregard immaterial defects; provided, that neither Enova nor Grasshopper nor the Exchange Agent shall be under any duty to notify any Holder of any such defect; in the event the Exchange Agent makes such a determination, such Election shall be deemed to be not in effect, and the shares of Grasshopper Common Stock covered by such Election shall, for purposes hereof, be deemed to be Non-Election Shares, unless a proper Election is thereafter timely made with respect to such shares. Any shares of Grasshopper Common Stock with respect to which the Exchange Agent has not received an effective, properly completed, and validly executed Election Form (together with any Certificates and related transmittal materials, as applicable) on or before the Election Deadline shall also be deemed Non-Election Shares. To the extent a holder of Grasshopper Dissenting Shares submits an Election Form, such holder’s election shall have no effect, the Exchange Agent will disregard such Election Form, and the Grasshopper Dissenting Shares shall be converted in accordance with Section ‎2.6.

(f) Subject to the terms of the Exchange Agent Agreement, Enova, in the exercise of its reasonable discretion, shall have the right to make all determinations, not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement, governing (i) the manner and extent to which Elections are to be taken into account in making the determinations prescribed by Section ‎2.2, (ii) the issuance and delivery of evidence of shares in book-entry form or, at the option of Enova, certificates (collectively referred to as “Enova Certificates” XE "Enova Certificates" ) representing the number of shares of Enova Common Stock into which shares of Grasshopper Common Stock are converted into the right to receive in the Merger and (iii) the method of payment of cash for shares of Grasshopper Common Stock that are converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration and the Fractional Share Payment.

Any interest and other income resulting from such investments shall be paid to Enova.

After completion of the allocation procedure set forth in Section ‎2.2 and upon proper surrender of a Certificate or Book-Entry Share for exchange and cancelation to the Exchange Agent, together with the appropriate transmittal materials, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other documents as may be required pursuant to such instructions, the Holder of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor the Merger Consideration, which the Holder shall receive (i) the Stock Consideration in non-certificated book-entry form which such Holder has the right to receive in respect of the Certificate or Book-Entry Share surrendered pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement and/or (ii) a check representing the amount of (A) the Cash Consideration which such Holder has the right to receive in respect of the Certificate or Book-Entry Share surrendered pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, (B) any Fractional Share Payment (if any), and (C) any dividends or distributions (if any) which the Holder thereof has the right to receive pursuant to Section ‎3.2(d), and the Certificate or Book-Entry Share so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled.

Until surrendered for exchange in accordance with the provisions of this Section ‎3.1, each Certificate or Book-Entry Share theretofore representing shares of Grasshopper Common Stock (other than the Canceled Shares) shall from and after the Effective Time represent for all purposes only the right to receive the Merger Consideration provided in this Agreement in exchange therefor, subject, however, to Enova’s obligation to pay any dividends or make any other distributions with a record date prior to the Effective Time which have been declared or made by Grasshopper in respect of such shares of Grasshopper Common Stock in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and which remain unpaid at the Effective Time.

Subject to applicable Laws, following surrender of any such Certificate or Book-Entry Share (or affidavit of loss and other documentation required by the Exchange Agent or Surviving Corporation hereunder in lieu thereof) there shall be paid to the record holder of the whole shares of Enova Common Stock, if any, issued in exchange therefor, without interest, (i) all dividends and other distributions payable in respect of any such whole shares of Enova Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time and a payment date on or prior to the date of such surrender and not previously paid and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time but prior to such surrender and with a payment date subsequent to such surrender payable with respect to such shares of Enova Common Stock.

(f) No Liability. None of Enova, Grasshopper, the Surviving Corporation, the Exchange Agent or any of their respective Affiliates, or any employee, officer, director, agent or Affiliate of any of them, shall be liable to any Holder in respect of any amount that would have otherwise been payable in respect of any Certificate or Book-Entry Share from the Exchange Fund delivered to a Public Official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. Any amounts remaining unclaimed by Holders immediately prior to the time at which such amounts would otherwise escheat to, or become property of, any Regulatory Authority shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of the Surviving Corporation, free and clear of any claims or interest of any such Holders or their successors, assigns or personal representatives previously entitled thereto.

such reasonable and customary amount as the Exchange Agent or Surviving Corporation may direct, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Exchange Agent will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the Merger Consideration to which the Holder thereof is entitled pursuant to this Agreement.

Each Party agrees that it will consult with the other Party with respect to the obtaining of all Permits and Consents of third parties and Regulatory Authorities necessary or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and each Party will keep the other Party promptly apprised of the status of material matters relating to completion of the transactions contemplated hereby, including promptly providing the other Party with a copy of any written communication or a summary of any oral communication from a Regulatory Authority the Consent of which is required for the consummation of the Core Transactions and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement that pertain to such material matters. Each Party shall (i) consult with the other Party and/or its counsel in advance of any meeting, conference or discussion with any Regulatory Authority in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (other than non-material and routine

53

 


 

communications between counsel and a Regulatory Authority regarding the regulatory approval process or status); and (ii) to the extent permitted by such Regulatory Authority, give the other Party and/or its counsel the opportunity to attend and participate in any meeting, conference or discussion with any Regulatory Authority (other than non-material and routine communications between counsel and a Regulatory Authority regarding the regulatory approval process or status).

(c) Subject to Section ‎10.14, each Party agrees, upon request, subject to applicable Laws, to promptly furnish the other Party with all information concerning itself, its Subsidiaries, directors, officers and stockholders and such other matters as may be reasonably necessary or advisable in connection with the Proxy Statement/Prospectus or any other statement, filing, notice or application made by or on behalf of Enova, Grasshopper or any of their respective Subsidiaries to any third party or Regulatory Authority in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

7.5. Access to Information; Confidentiality and Notification of Certain Matters.

(a) Grasshopper and Enova shall each promptly advise the other of any (i) fact, change, event, effect, condition, occurrence, development or circumstance which it believes would or would be reasonably likely to cause the failure of any of the conditions in ‎ARTICLE 8, or (ii) any notice or other communication from any Person alleging that the Consent of such Person is or may be required in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, that any failure to give notice in accordance with the foregoing with respect to any breach shall not be deemed to constitute a violation of this Section ‎7.5(a) or the failure of any condition set forth in ‎ARTICLE 8 to be satisfied, or otherwise constitute a breach of this Agreement by the Party failing to give such notice, in each case unless the underlying breach would independently result in a failure of the conditions set forth in ‎ARTICLE 8 to be satisfied; and provided, further, that the delivery of any notice pursuant to this Section ‎7.5(a) shall not cure any breach of, or noncompliance with, any other provision of this Agreement or limit the remedies available to Enova and Grasshopper.

(b) Prior to the Effective Time, subject to Section ‎10.14, Grasshopper shall permit, and cause Grasshopper Bank and the Representatives of the Grasshopper Entities to afford to, the Representatives of Enova to make or cause to be made such investigation of the business, Assets, information technology systems, Contracts, Books and Records, and personnel and such other information of the Grasshopper Entities and of their respective financial and legal conditions as Enova may reasonably request and furnish to Enova promptly all other information concerning its business, Assets, information technology systems, Contracts, Books and Records, and personnel and such other information as Enova may reasonably request, provided that such investigation or requests shall not unreasonably interfere with normal operations of Grasshopper. No investigation by Enova shall affect or be deemed to modify or waive the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of Grasshopper in this Agreement, or the conditions of Enova’s obligation to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Neither Enova nor Grasshopper nor any of their respective Subsidiaries shall be required to provide access to or to disclose information where such access or disclosure would violate or prejudice the rights of Enova’s or Grasshopper’s, as the case may be, customers, jeopardize the attorney-client privilege of the institution in possession or control of such information (after giving due consideration to the existence of any common interest, joint defense or similar agreement between the Parties) or contravene any Law, fiduciary duty or binding Contract entered into prior to the date of this Agreement. The Parties will make appropriate substitute arrangements to permit reasonable disclosure under circumstances in which the restrictions of the preceding sentence apply.

(c) Each Party shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and Representatives to, hold and use any information obtained in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby in accordance with the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement, dated July 29, 2025, between Enova and Grasshopper (the “Confidentiality Agreement” XE "Confidentiality Agreement" ).

The Parties shall consult with each other before issuing any press release or other public disclosure or communication (including communications to employees, agents and contractors) related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and shall not issue such press release or other public disclosure without the prior written consent of the other Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned); provided, that nothing in this Section 7.6 shall be deemed to prohibit any Party from (a) making any press release or other public disclosure as, upon the advice of the outside counsel, is required by Law or the rules or regulations of any securities exchange and (b) making any public disclosure in response to questions from the press, analysts, investors or those attending industry conferences, making internal announcements to employees or making disclosures in any documents filed with or furnished to the SEC, in each case, to the extent that such statements are consistent with previous press releases or public disclosures made by the parties and otherwise in compliance with this Section 7.6. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 7.6 to the contrary, the Parties agree that Enova and its Affiliates shall be entitled to issue a press release and present an investor presentation announcing the execution of this Agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E.

7.7. Tax Treatment.

(a) Each of the Parties intends, and undertakes and agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Merger to, and to take no action which would cause the Merger not to, in each case, qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code for federal income tax purposes. The Parties shall cooperate and use their reasonable best efforts in order to obtain the Tax Opinion. The Parties adopt this Agreement as a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.368-2(g) and for purposes of Sections 354, 361 and 368 of the Internal Revenue Code.

(b) Each of the Parties shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause their appropriate officers to execute and deliver to Covington & Burling LLP certificates containing appropriate representations and covenants, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to such counsel, at such time or times as may be reasonably requested by such counsel, including as of the effective date of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus and the Closing Date, in connection with such counsel’s deliveries of Tax Opinions with respect to the Tax treatment of the Merger.

(c) Unless otherwise required pursuant to a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Internal Revenue Code, each of the Parties shall report the Merger as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code and shall not take any inconsistent position therewith in any Tax Return.

7.8. Transfer Taxes.

Holders of Grasshopper Common Stock shall be responsible for and shall pay all transfer, documentary, sales, use stamp, registration and other such Taxes, and any conveyance fees or recording charges (collectively, “Transfer Taxes XE "Transfer Taxes" ”) incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Holders of Grasshopper Common Stock shall prepare and timely file (or cause to be prepared and timely filed) at their own expense all Tax Returns required to be filed in respect of any such Transfer Taxes and timely pay such Transfer Taxes.

55

 


 

7.9. Employee Benefits and Contracts.

(a) Enova shall cause to be provided to each employee who is actively employed by a Grasshopper Entity as of immediately prior to the Closing (each, a “Covered Employee XE "Covered Employee" ”), while employed by Enova or one of its Affiliates following the Closing Date and except as otherwise provided in an agreement with a Covered Employee, (i) through the end of the year in which the Effective Time occurs, (A) base salary or wages at least equal to the base salary or wages provided to such Covered Employee by a Grasshopper Entity as of immediately prior to the Closing, and (B) target cash incentive compensation opportunities at least equal to the target cash incentive compensation opportunities provided to such Covered Employee by a Grasshopper Entity as of immediately prior to the Closing; provided, however, that Enova shall not be required to pay an aggregate amount for annual cash bonuses to Covered Employees of more than the amount set forth in Section ‎7.9(a) of Grasshopper’s Disclosure Schedule, and (ii) for a period of twelve (12) months following the Effective Time, employee benefits, terms and conditions, which are, in the aggregate, substantially comparable to those provided by Enova Entities to their similarly situated employees, including severance benefits in accordance with the applicable severance policy of Enova; provided, that in no event shall any Covered Employee be eligible to participate in any closed or frozen plan of any Enova Entity. Until such time as Enova shall cause the Covered Employees to participate in the applicable Enova Benefit Plans providing health and welfare benefits, the continued participation of the Covered Employees in the Grasshopper Benefit Plans providing health and welfare benefits shall be deemed to satisfy the foregoing provision (iii) of this clause (it being understood that participation in Enova Benefit Plans may commence at different times with respect to each of Enova Benefit Plans). For purposes of determining eligibility to participate, vesting and level of benefits under Enova Benefit Plans in which Covered Employees are eligible to participate, the service of the Covered Employees with all Grasshopper Entities (and predecessors thereto) prior to the Effective Time shall be treated as service with an Enova Entity, to the same extent that such service was recognized by the Grasshopper Entities for purposes of a similar benefit plan; provided, that such recognition of service shall not (x) operate to duplicate any benefits of a Covered Employee with respect to the same period of service, or (y) apply for purposes of any plan, program or arrangement (1) under which similarly-situated employees of Enova Entities do not receive credit for prior service, (2) that is grandfathered or frozen, either with respect to level of benefits or participation, or (3) for purposes of retiree medical benefits or level of benefits under a defined benefit pension plan.

(b) From and after the Effective Time, without limiting the generality of Section 7.9(a), with respect to each Covered Employee (and his or her beneficiaries), Enova shall (i) ensure that each Covered Employee shall be immediately eligible to participate, without waiting time, in any and all Enova Benefit Plans providing retirement or life, accident, disability medical, dental, vision or health benefits to the extent coverage under such Enova Benefit Plan replaces coverage under a similar Grasshopper Benefit Plan in which such Covered Employee participated immediately prior to such replacement and (ii) shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each Enova Benefit Plan providing life, accident, disability, medical, dental, vision or health benefits and in which each such Covered Employee becomes eligible to participate to (A) waive any preexisting condition limitations, (B) waive any waiting period limitation, actively-at-work requirement or evidence of insurability requirement that would otherwise be applicable to such Covered Employees and their beneficiaries on or after the Effective Time to the extent such employee or beneficiary had satisfied any similar limitation or requirement under an analogous plan prior to the Effective Time, and (C) cause any eligible expenses incurred by such Covered Employee (and his or her beneficiaries) under a Grasshopper Benefit Plan during the portion of the plan year prior to the date on which coverage begins to be taken into account under such Enova Benefit Plan for purposes of satisfying all deductibles, co-insurance, co-payment, and maximum out-of-pocket requirements for the applicable plan year as if such amounts have been paid in accordance with the Enova Benefit Plan.

56

 


 

(c) Prior to the Closing Date, the Grasshopper Entities shall take all reasonably necessary action (including without limitation the adoption of resolutions and, if determined to be necessary, plan amendments and the delivery of any required notices) (i) to amend the Grasshopper Bank, N.A. Retirement Plan (the “401(k) Plan XE "401(k) Plan" ”) to prohibit any participants in the 401(k) Plan from taking out a plan loan from and after such date of amendment, such prohibition to be effective as soon as commercially practicable following the date hereof and (ii) to terminate the 401(k) Plan, effective as of no later than the day before the Closing Date (but contingent on the Closing). Such resolutions and, if determined to be reasonably necessary, plan amendments, notices and other documents prepared to effectuate the termination of the 401(k) Plan shall be subject to advance review and comment by Enova, and Grasshopper shall incorporate Enova’s reasonable and timely comments to such drafts in good faith. On or prior to the Closing Date, Grasshopper shall provide Enova with the final documentation evidencing that the 401(k) Plan has been terminated. As of the Closing Date, Enova shall cause any defined contribution plan sponsored by Enova (or any of its Affiliates) that is qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code (the “Enova 401(k) Plan” XE "Enova 401(k) Plan" ) to accept a rollover of (i) the cash portion of any “eligible rollover distribution” (within the meaning of Section 402(c)(4) of the Code) to a Covered Employee from the 401(k) Plan and (ii) the portion of any such eligible rollover distribution that consists of a promissory note applicable to a loan from the 401(k) Plan to such Covered Employee. On or prior to the Closing Date, Enova shall provide Grasshopper with the final documentation evidencing that the Enova 401(k) Plan has been amended to permit the rollover of a promissory note applicable to a loan from the 401(k) Plan to such Covered Employee.

(d) Upon request by Enova in writing no later than 60 days prior to the Closing Date, the Grasshopper Entities shall cooperate in good faith with Enova prior to the Closing Date to amend, freeze, terminate or modify any Grasshopper Benefit Plan providing health or other welfare benefits to the extent and in the manner reasonably determined by Enova, to be effective upon the Closing Date (or at such later time mutually agreed to by the parties) but contingent upon Closing, and consistent with applicable Law. All resolutions and if determined to be reasonably necessary, plan amendments, notices and other documents prepared to effectuate the actions contemplated by this Section 7.9(d), as applicable, shall be subject to advance review and comment by Enova, and Grasshopper shall incorporate Enova’s reasonable and timely comments to such drafts in good faith. On or prior to the Closing Date, Grasshopper shall provide Enova with the final documentation evidencing that the actions contemplated herein have been effectuated.

(e) Without limiting the generality of Section ‎10.4, nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any Person, including any current or former employee, officer, director or consultant of Grasshopper or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, any rights, remedies, obligations, or Liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement. In no event shall the terms of this Agreement: (i) establish, amend, or modify any Grasshopper Benefit Plan, Enova Benefit Plan or any “employee benefit plan” as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA, or any other benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement maintained or sponsored by Enova, Grasshopper or any of their respective Affiliates; (ii) alter or limit the ability of Surviving Corporation, Enova or any of their Subsidiaries or Affiliates to amend, modify or terminate any Grasshopper Benefit Plan, employment agreement, or any other benefit or employment plan, program, agreement or arrangement after the Closing Date, in each case in accordance with their terms; or (iii) confer upon any current or former employee, officer, director or consultant of Grasshopper or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, any right to employment or continued employment or continued service with Enova or any Enova Subsidiaries, the Surviving Corporation or the Grasshopper Entities, or constitute or create an employment agreement with any employee, or interfere with or restrict in any way the rights of the Surviving Corporation, Grasshopper, Enova or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof to discharge or terminate the services of any employee, officer, director or consultant of Grasshopper or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without cause.

57

 


 

(f) No later than the Closing Date, Grasshopper shall (i) update Sections ‎4.3(a), ‎4.16(b), and ‎4.16(c) of Grasshopper’s Disclosure Memorandum so that it is current as of the Determination Date and Section 10.1 of Grasshopper’s Disclosure Memorandum so that it includes the wire instructions for the receipt of the Grasshopper Warrant Pro Rata Amount and (ii) provide Enova with true, complete and correct list of each employee who has suffered an “employment loss” within the meaning of the WARN Act in the 90 days prior to the Closing Date.

7.10. D&O Indemnification.

(a) For a period of six years after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the present and former directors or officers of the Grasshopper Entities (each, an “D&O Indemnified Party XE "D&O Indemnified Party" ”), against all Liabilities incurred in connection with any Litigation arising out of or pertaining to, the fact that such Person is or was a director or officer of the Grasshopper Entities or, at Grasshopper’s request, of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, and pertaining to matters, acts or omissions existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time (including matters, acts or omissions occurring in connection with the approval of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement), whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time, to the fullest extent provided under Grasshopper’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws as in effect as of the date of this Agreement (subject to applicable Law), including provisions relating to advances of expenses incurred in the defense of any Litigation; provided, that the D&O Indemnified Party to whom expenses are advanced provides a written undertaking to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined that such D&O Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification.

(b) The Surviving Corporation shall use its reasonable best efforts (and Grasshopper shall reasonably cooperate prior to the Effective Time in these efforts) to maintain in effect for a period of six years after the Effective Time Grasshopper’s existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy (provided that the Surviving Corporation may substitute therefor (i) policies of at least the same coverage and amounts containing terms and conditions which are substantially no less advantageous to the insured or (ii) with the consent of Grasshopper given prior to the Effective Time, any other policy) with respect to claims arising from facts or events which occurred prior to the Effective Time; provided, that the Surviving Corporation shall not be obligated to make aggregate premium payments for such six-year period in respect of such policy (or coverage replacing such policy) which exceed, for the portion related to Grasshopper’s directors and officers, 250% of the annual premium payments currently paid on Grasshopper’s current policy in effect as of the date of this Agreement (the “Maximum Amount XE "Maximum Amount" ”). If the amount of the premiums necessary to maintain or procure such insurance coverage exceeds the Maximum Amount, the Surviving Corporation shall use its reasonable best efforts to maintain the most advantageous policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance obtainable for a premium equal to the Maximum Amount. In lieu of the foregoing, Enova, or Grasshopper in consultation with Enova, may obtain on or prior to the Effective Time, a six-year “tail” prepaid policy providing equivalent coverage to that described in this Section ‎7.10(b) at a premium not to exceed the Maximum Amount. If the premium necessary to purchase such “tail” prepaid policy exceeds the Maximum Amount, Enova or Grasshopper in consultation with Enova may purchase the most advantageous “tail” prepaid policy obtainable for a premium equal to the Maximum Amount, and in each case, Enova and the Surviving Corporation shall have no further obligations under this Section ‎7.10(b) other than to maintain such “tail” prepaid policy.

(c) If the Surviving Corporation or any successors or assigns shall consolidate with or merge into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving Person of such consolidation or merger or if the Surviving Corporation (or any successors or assigns) shall transfer all or substantially all of its Assets to any Person, then and in each case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of the Surviving Corporation shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section ‎7.10.

58

 


 

(d) The provisions of this Section ‎7.10 are intended to be for the benefit of and shall be enforceable by, each Grasshopper D&O Indemnified Party and their respective heirs and Representatives.

(e) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 7.10 to the contrary, no indemnification payments will be made to a D&O Indemnified Party with respect to an administrative proceeding or civil action initiated by any federal banking agency unless all of the following conditions are met: (i) Enova’s board of directors determines in writing that the D&O Indemnified Party acted in good faith and in the best interests of Grasshopper or Grasshopper Bank; (ii) Enova’s board of directors determines that the payment will not materially affect Enova’s safety and soundness; (iii) the payment does not fall within the definition of a prohibited indemnification payment under 12 C.F.R. Part 359; and (iv) the D&O Indemnified Party agrees in writing to reimburse Enova, to the extent not covered by permissible insurance, for payments made in the event that the administrative or civil action instituted by a banking Regulatory Authority results in a final Order or settlement in which the D&O Indemnified Party is assessed a civil money penalty, is prohibited from banking, or is required to cease an action or perform an affirmative action.

7.11. Operating Functions.

Grasshopper and Grasshopper Bank shall reasonably cooperate with Enova in connection with planning for the efficient and orderly combination of the Parties and the operation of the Surviving Corporation and Surviving Bank, and in preparing for the consolidation of appropriate operating functions to be effective at the Effective Time or such later date as Enova may decide. Each Party shall cooperate with the other Party in preparing to execute after the Effective Time conversion or consolidation of systems and business operations generally (including by entering into customary confidentiality, non-disclosure and similar agreements with service providers of the other Party). Prior to the Effective Time, each Party shall exercise, consistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, complete control and supervision over its and its Subsidiaries’ respective operations.

7.12. Litigation.

Each of Grasshopper and Enova shall promptly notify each other in writing of any action, arbitration, audit, hearing, investigation, litigation, suit, subpoena or summons issued, commenced, brought, conducted or heard by or before, or otherwise involving, any Regulatory Authority or arbitrator pending or, to the Knowledge of Grasshopper or Enova, as applicable, threatened against Grasshopper, Enova or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Representatives that (a) questions or would reasonably be expected to question the validity of this Agreement or the other agreements contemplated hereby or thereby or any actions taken or to be taken by Grasshopper, Enova or their respective Subsidiaries with respect hereto or thereto, or (b) seeks to enjoin or otherwise restrain the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. Grasshopper shall give Enova prompt notice of any stockholder litigation against Grasshopper or its directors or officers relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and shall give Enova every opportunity to participate in the defense or settlement of such litigation, provided that no such settlement shall be agreed to by any Grasshopper Entity without Enova’s prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned).

7.13. Legal Conditions to Merger; Additional Agreements.

Subject to Sections ‎7.1 and ‎7.5 of this Agreement, each of Grasshopper and Enova shall, and shall cause each of their respective Subsidiaries to, use their reasonable best efforts (a) to take, or cause to be taken, all actions necessary, proper or advisable to comply promptly with all legal and regulatory requirements that may be imposed on such Party or its Subsidiaries with respect to the Core Transactions and, subject to the conditions set forth in ‎ARTICLE 8 hereof, to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (b) to obtain (and to cooperate with the other Party to obtain) any Permit or Consent

59

 


 

by any Regulatory Authority and any other third party that is required to be obtained by Grasshopper or Enova or any of their respective Subsidiaries in connection with, or to effect, the Core Transactions and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In case at any time after the Effective Time any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement (including, any merger between a Enova Subsidiary, on the one hand, and Grasshopper Bank, on the other hand) or to vest the Surviving Corporation and the Surviving Bank with full title to all Assets, rights, Consents, Permits, immunities and franchises of any of the Parties to the Mergers, the proper officers and directors of each Party and their respective Subsidiaries shall take all such necessary action as may be reasonably requested by Enova.

7.14. Closing Financial Statements.

(a) Grasshopper shall provide to Enova, on the date that is two (2) Business Days prior to the anticipated Effective Time, Grasshopper’s consolidated balance sheet and related statement of income (including Grasshopper’s Tier 1 Leverage Ratio described in Section ‎8.2(f) and its calculation) as of and through the close of business on the last day of the most recently concluded calendar month prior to the anticipated Effective Time (the “Closing Financial Statements XE "Closing Financial Statements" ”).

(b) The Closing Financial Statements shall (i) have been prepared (A) in good faith based on all available information at such time and in accordance with GAAP and regulatory accounting principles, and (B) in the same manner as the Reference Financial Statements, and (ii) reflect all period-end accruals, other adjustments, and provisions to be consistent with the Reference Financial Statements. The Closing Financial Statements shall also (1) reflect as of their date accruals for all fees, costs and expenses incurred or expected to be incurred (whether or not doing so is in accordance with GAAP) in connection (directly or indirectly) with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including any transaction, sale, change-of-control, retention costs or bonuses or other payments owed by Grasshopper or any Grasshopper Entity and (2) be accompanied by (x) a certificate of Grasshopper’s chief financial officer, dated as of the date of the Closing Financial Statements, to the effect that such financial statements meet the requirements of Section ‎7.14(a), were prepared in good faith based on all available information at such time and in accordance with GAAP and regulatory accounting principles and in the same manner as the Reference Financial Statements and reflect all period-end accruals, other adjustments and provisions, and reflect accurately the consolidated balance sheet and related statement of income of Grasshopper in all material respects and (y) all supporting information from the Closing Financial Statements, including all books and records.

(c) Subject to Section 10.14, beginning no later than two weeks prior to the anticipated Effective Time and until calculation of Grasshopper’s Tier 1 Leverage Ratio is agreed in accordance with this Section 7.14, Grasshopper shall, and shall cause Grasshopper Bank, and each of their respective Representatives to (i) reasonably cooperate in good faith with and reasonably assist Enova and its Representatives in preparing for and completing their review of the Closing Financial Statements, including Loan valuation, and their investigation and evaluation of any material developments in Grasshopper or Grasshopper Bank from the date hereof (including the status of the Grasshopper Contracts and BaaS Contracts, any Default under any Law or Order applicable to any Grasshopper Entity, any notification or communication from any Regulatory Authority asserting that any Grasshopper Entity is not in compliance with any Laws, Orders, or Permits or engaging in an unsafe or unsound activity or is in troubled condition, or any Litigation instituted or pending, or, to the Knowledge of Grasshopper, threatened against any Grasshopper Entity and significant Loan issuances), and (ii) provide Enova and its Representatives with any books, records or other information reasonably requested by Enova or its Representatives and in Grasshopper’s possession in connection with such review, investigation and evaluation.

(d) Following the delivery of the Closing Financial Statements: (i) Grasshopper will consider in good faith Enova’s reasonable comments to the Closing Financial Statements, and (ii) Enova and Grasshopper shall work together in good faith to agree on the Closing Financial Statements, including the

60

 


 

calculation of Grasshopper’s Tier 1 Leverage Ratio contained therein. The Closing Financial Statements and the calculation of Grasshopper’s Tier 1 Leverage Ratio contained therein agreed between the Parties shall become final and binding.

(e) If, no later than the day before the anticipated Effective Time, Enova and Grasshopper are unable to agree upon the Closing Financial Statements or Grasshopper’s Tier 1 Leverage Ratio contained therein, Enova and Grasshopper shall promptly submit any items over which a disagreement remains (each dispute, an “Objection XE "Objection" ”) to an independent, nationally recognized accounting firm mutually agreed to by Enova and Grasshopper (the “Independent Accountants XE "Independent Accountants" ”), which will act as an expert and not as an arbitrator to resolve the remaining disputed items. The Independent Accountants shall be instructed to resolve the matters that remain in dispute with respect to the Objection based solely on written submissions of Grasshopper, on the one hand, and Enova, on the other hand, and not by independent investigation. Enova and Grasshopper will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Independent Accountants to resolve any dispute and issue final Closing Financial Statements confirming the correct Grasshopper’s Tier 1 Leverage Ratio (as determined in accordance with the standards and definitions in this Agreement), within ten days following such engagement. Enova and Grasshopper will reasonably cooperate with, and furnish such information including work papers and documentation used by Grasshopper and Enova in preparing the Closing Financial Statements and any Objection, as may be requested to, the Independent Accountants. The final Closing Financial Statements issued by the Independent Accountants, as well as the amount of Grasshopper’s Tier 1 Leverage Ratio contained therein, will be final and binding on Enova and Grasshopper; provided, however, that if Grasshopper’s Tier 1 Leverage Ratio provided in the Closing Financial Statements delivered by Grasshopper pursuant to Section 7.14(a) is no less than 8%, but Grasshopper’s Tier 1 Leverage Ratio contained in the final Closing Financial Statements issued by the Independent Accountants is less than 8%, then Grasshopper shall have up to 45 days after the Independent Accountants issue such final Closing Financial Statements (provided that such period shall not extend beyond the date that is 15 days prior to the Termination Date) in which to take such actions as may be mutually agreed by the parties such that Grasshopper’s Tier 1 Leverage Ratio shall be no less than 8%. If, following such 45-day (or shorter) period, Enova and Grasshopper are unable to agree upon Grasshopper’s Tier 1 Leverage Ratio being no less than 8%, Enova and Grasshopper shall re-submit any items over which a disagreement remains to the Independent Accountants as described in the foregoing and the determination of the Independent Accountants in such process shall be final and binding on Enova and Grasshopper.

(f) Each of Enova and Grasshopper will bear all costs and fees incurred by it in connection with the foregoing arbitration; provided that the fees and expenses of the Independent Accountants shall be borne by Grasshopper and Enova in the same proportion that the aggregate amount of disputed items submitted to the Independent Accountants that are unsuccessfully disputed by Grasshopper and Enova, respectively (as determined by the Independent Accountants), bears to the total amount of items submitted to the Independent Accountants.

(g) Following the determination of the final Grasshopper Tier 1 Leverage Ratio as agreed between Enova and Grasshopper pursuant to Section ‎7.14(d) or as determined by the Independent Accountants pursuant to Section ‎7.14(e) (the “Final Grasshopper Tier 1 Leverage Ratio XE "Final Grasshopper Tier 1 Leverage Ratio" ”), Grasshopper may, upon prior written notice to Enova and subject to Grasshopper obtaining all required regulatory Permits or Consents from the applicable Regulatory Authorities, prior to the anticipated Effective Time, declare and pay a special cash dividend to its stockholders of record in an amount not to exceed (1) the excess cash held by Grasshopper which if not held would cause the Final Grasshopper Tier 1 Leverage Ratio to equal 8% minus (2) (i) an amount equal to $8.19 per share of Grasshopper Common Stock issued upon the exercise of any Grasshopper Warrant on or after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time, (ii) the aggregate exercise prices payable for all shares of Grasshopper Common Stock issued upon the exercise of any Grasshopper Stock Option on or

61

 


 

after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time and (iii) an amount equal to the amount that would be payable for this dividend to each share of Grasshopper Common Stock underlying each Grasshopper Stock Option (vested or unvested) had all such shares been issued and outstanding prior to the payment of such dividend, together with the employer portion of payroll tax attributable to paying this aggregate amount to the holders of such Grasshopper Stock Options. The special dividend payable pursuant to this Section ‎7.14(g) shall be allocated pro rata to such Grasshopper stockholders of record and Grasshopper shall adopt a bonus plan at the same time as declaring such special dividend providing for the payment to each Grasshopper Stock Option (whether vested or unvested) that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the payment of such special dividend of an amount equal to the amount that would be payable for such special dividend to each share of Grasshopper Common Stock underlying each Grasshopper Stock Option (vested or unvested) had all such shares been issued and outstanding prior to the payment of such dividend.

7.15. Dividends.

(a) by mutual written agreement of Enova and Grasshopper;

(b) by either Party, by written notice to the other Party, in the event (i) (A) any Regulatory Authority has denied a Requisite Regulatory Approval and such denial has become final, or has advised either Party in writing or both Parties orally that it will not grant (or intends to rescind or revoke if previously approved) a Requisite Regulatory Approval, or (B) any Regulatory Authority shall have requested that Enova, Grasshopper, or any of their respective Affiliates withdraw (other than for technical reasons), and not be permitted to resubmit within 60 days, any application with respect to a Requisite Regulatory Approval; provided, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section ‎9.1(b) (i) shall not be available to any Party whose failure to comply with any provision of this Agreement in any material respect has been the principal cause of, or resulted in, such denial, lack of grant or request, (ii) subject to the terminating Party’s compliance with Section ‎7.17, the stockholders of Grasshopper fail to vote their approval of the matters relating to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby at the Grasshopper Meeting where such matters were presented to such stockholders for approval and voted upon

(taking into account any adjournment or postponement thereof as required by this Agreement), or (iii) any Law or Order permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall have become final and non-appealable, provided that the Party seeking to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section ‎9.1(b)(iii) shall, subject to Section ‎7.4, have used its reasonable best efforts to contest, appeal and remove such Law or Order prior to such Law or Order becoming final and non-appealable;

(c) by either Party, by written notice to the other Party, in the event that the Merger shall not have been consummated by December 4, 2026 (the “Termination Date XE "Termination Date" ”); provided, that Enova and Grasshopper may mutually agree to extend the Termination Date until the date that is 90 days following the initial Termination Date so long as Enova pays to Grasshopper an amount equal to $5,000,000 in same-day funds to the account specified by Grasshopper by no later than two Business Days prior to the initial Termination Date for that purpose, in which case the “Termination Date” shall be deemed to be the date that is 90 days following the initial Termination Date; provided, further, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 9.1(c) shall not be available to (i) any Party seeking to terminate if such Party is in material breach of, or has materially breached, this Agreement prior to the Closing where such breach primarily caused the failure of the Closing to occur by the Termination Date or (ii) any Party during the determination of the Final Grasshopper Tier 1 Leverage Ratio pursuant to Section 7.14 (including any period during which Grasshopper is taking action to increase Grasshopper’s Tier 1 Leverage Ratio in accordance with the terms of Section 7.14);

In the event of the termination and abandonment of this Agreement pursuant to Section ‎9.1, this Agreement shall become void and have no further force or effect and there shall be no Liability on the part of any Party for matters addressed herein or other claim relating to this Agreement and the transactions completed hereby, except that (i) the provisions of this Section ‎9.2, Section ‎7.5(c), and ‎ARTICLE 10, shall survive any such termination and abandonment and (ii) subject to Section ‎9.2(b), no such termination shall relieve the breaching Party from any Liability resulting from any actual and intentional fraud or willful breach by that Party of this Agreement occurring prior to such termination or abandonment.

67

 


 

(b) Termination Fee.

The payment of the Reverse Termination Fee by Enova pursuant to this Section 9.2(b) shall constitute liquidated damages and not a penalty, and, except in the case of actual and intentional fraud, the receipt of such fee by Grasshopper shall be the sole and exclusive remedy for damages against Enova for any loss suffered by Grasshopper as a result of any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement set forth herein, the failure of the transactions contemplated hereby to be consummated or any other theory of liability related to any of the foregoing or otherwise, whether at law or in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise, and upon receipt by the Grasshopper of the Reverse Termination Fee, none of Enova or its Affiliates and representatives shall have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. The Parties acknowledge that the agreements contained in Section 9.2(b) are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that without these agreements, they would not enter into this Agreement. If Enova fails promptly to pay the amount due pursuant to this Section 9.2(b), and, in order to obtain such payment, Grasshopper commences a suit which results in a final and non-appealable judgment against Enova for the Reverse Termination Fee or any portion thereof, Enova shall pay the costs and expenses of Grasshopper (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) in connection with such suit. In addition, if Enova fails to pay the amounts payable pursuant to this Section 9.2(b), then Enova shall pay interest on such overdue amounts (for the period commencing as of the date that such overdue amount was originally required to be paid and ending on the date that such overdue amount is actually paid in full) at a rate per annum equal to the “prime rate” as published in The Wall Street Journal on the date on which such payment was required to be made for the period commencing as of the date that such overdue amount was originally required to be paid.

9.3. Non-Survival of Representations and Covenants.

The respective representations, warranties, obligations, covenants, and agreements of the Parties in this Agreement shall not survive the Effective Time except this Section ‎9.3, Sections ‎7.6, ‎7.7, ‎7.9, and ‎7.10, and ‎ARTICLE 1, ‎ARTICLE 2, ‎ARTICLE 3, and ‎ARTICLE 10, which shall survive in accordance with their respective terms. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall limit or restrict any party’s right or ability to make any claim against, or recover any amounts from, any Party that has committed actual and intentional fraud in the making of the representations and warranties set forth herein.

The representations and warranties in this Agreement are the product of negotiations among the Parties and are for the sole benefit of the Parties. Any inaccuracies in such representations and warranties are subject to waiver by the Parties in accordance herewith without notice or liability to any other Person. In some instances, the representations and warranties in this Agreement may represent an allocation among the Parties of risks associated with particular matters regardless of the knowledge of any of the Parties.

10.12. Enforcement of Agreement.

The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur and that the Parties would not have any adequate remedy at law in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement was not performed in accordance with its specific terms or was otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled, without the requirement of posting bond, to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any court of the United States or any state having jurisdiction, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. Each of the Parties waives any defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.

10.13. Severability.

Any term or provision of this Agreement which is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without rendering invalid or unenforceable the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction. 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.

10.14. Confidential Supervisory Information.

To the extent legally permissible, appropriate substitute or alternative disclosures or actions shall be made or taken under circumstances in which the limitations of the preceding sentence apply.
