No later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to nCino a statement (the “Estimated Closing Statement”), the final version of which shall be signed by an authorized officer of the Company, setting forth (i) an estimated unaudited consolidated balance sheet of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the Closing and (ii) the Company’s good faith estimate of (A) Closing Working Capital (such estimate, “Estimated Closing Working Capital”), (B) Closing Indebtedness (such estimate, “Estimated Closing Indebtedness”), (C) Closing Cash (such estimate, “Estimated Closing Cash”) and (D) Company Transaction Expenses (such estimate, “Estimated Company Transaction Expenses”). The Estimated Closing Statement shall be prepared, and the components thereof shall be calculated, in accordance with this Agreement and the Specified Accounting Principles. The Company shall deliver supporting calculations and documentation of such calculations, in reasonable detail, concurrently with the delivery of such Estimated Closing Statement. Upon receipt of the Estimated Closing Statement from the Company, nCino shall be permitted to review and provide comments thereto, and the Company shall reasonably consider any comments made by nCino in respect thereof, and if such Parties agree on any changes to the Estimated Closing Statement or the components thereof, such revisions shall be deemed included in the applicable calculations for purposes of the Closing Merger Consideration; provided, that, if any disagreements with respect to the Estimated Closing Statement or the components thereof are not resolved by the Closing, the Estimated Closing Statement prepared by the Company, as revised to reflect any revisions thereto agreed by such Parties prior to the Closing but not any of nCino’s comments not agreed to by the Company, will be the Estimated Closing Statement for all purposes hereunder, and in no event will any such disagreements prevent or delay the Closing. In connection with nCino’s and its accountants’ review of the Estimated Closing Statement, upon nCino’s reasonable request, at nCino’s sole expense, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to allow reasonable access during normal working hours to its books and records and its personnel and outside advisors who were involved in the preparation of the Estimated Closing Statement or its components.
(b)Post-Closing Adjustment.
(i)As promptly as reasonably practicable, but in no event later than seventy-five (75) days following the Closing Date, Parent shall cause to be prepared and delivered to the Member Representative a statement (the “Parent Closing Statement”) setting forth in reasonable detail Parent’s good faith calculation of the Adjustment Amount (including good faith calculations of Closing Working Capital, Closing Indebtedness, Closing Cash and Company Transaction Expenses), together with supporting calculations and documentation in reasonable detail. The Parent Closing Statement shall be prepared, and the components thereof shall be calculated, in accordance with this Agreement and the Specified Accounting Principles. The Parties agree that the purpose of preparing the Parent Closing Statement is to measure the amount of Closing Working Capital, Closing Indebtedness, Closing Cash and Company Transaction Expenses, and the resulting
28


Adjustment Amount, in accordance with this Agreement, and such processes are not intended to permit the introduction of different judgments, accounting methods, policies, principles, practices, procedures, classifications or estimation methodologies for the purpose of preparing the Parent Closing Statement or determining the Adjustment Amount or the components thereof. The calculations of Closing Working Capital, Closing Indebtedness, Closing Cash and Company Transaction Expenses, and the resulting Adjustment Amount, in the Parent Closing Statement will entirely disregard (i) any and all effects on the Acquired Companies (including the assets and liabilities of the Acquired Companies) as a result of the Transactions resulting from purchase accounting or any financing or refinancing arrangements entered into at any time by Parent or any of its Affiliates or any other transaction entered into by Parent or any of its Affiliates in connection with the consummation of the Transactions and (ii) any of the plans, transactions, financings, payments or changes that Parent or any of its Affiliates initiates or makes, or causes to be initiated or made, after the Closing with respect to the Acquired Companies or their respective business or assets, or any facts or circumstances that are unique or particular to Parent or any of its Affiliates or any of their respective assets or liabilities. The Parent Closing Statement shall take into account information and events up to the date of delivery of the Parent Closing Statement that provides evidence of conditions that existed immediately prior to Closing in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 855, Subsequent Events but shall not take into account information or events that are indicative of conditions that arose after the Closing.
(ii)Upon receipt by the Member Representative of the Parent Closing Statement, Parent shall provide the Member Representative and any accountants or advisors retained by the Member Representative with reasonable access during normal working hours, at the Member Representative’s sole expense, to the books and records, personnel and accountants of the Acquired Companies for the purposes of (A) enabling the Member Representative and its accountants and advisors to calculate, and to review Parent’s calculation of, the Adjustment Amount and the components thereof as reflected in the Parent Closing Statement and (B) identifying (and contesting, if applicable) any dispute related to the calculation of the Adjustment Amount set forth in the Parent Closing Statement.
(iii)If the Member Representative disputes the Adjustment Amount set forth in the Parent Closing Statement, then the Member Representative shall deliver a written notice (an “Adjustment Dispute Notice”) to Parent and the Escrow Agent prior to the expiration of the forty-five (45) day period commencing upon receipt by the Member Representative of the Parent Closing Statement (the “Review Period”). The Adjustment Dispute Notice shall set forth, in reasonable detail, the principal basis and particulars for the dispute of such calculation and the Member Representative’s determination of the Adjustment Amount (including proposed calculations of Closing Working Capital, Closing Indebtedness, Closing Cash and Company Transaction Expenses). To the extent the Adjustment Dispute Notice does not dispute a certain component of the Adjustment Amount included in the Parent Closing Statement, then such component shall be final, binding and non-appealable by Parent, the Member Representative, the Company Securityholders and the Cash Plan Award Holders.
(iv)If the Member Representative does not deliver an Adjustment Dispute Notice to Parent prior to the expiration of the Review Period, the Adjustment Amount set forth in the Parent Closing Statement shall be deemed final and binding on Parent, the Member Representative, the Company Securityholders and the Cash Plan Award Holders as the Adjustment Amount for all purposes of this Agreement.
29


(v)If the Member Representative delivers an Adjustment Dispute Notice to Parent prior to the expiration of the Review Period, then the Member Representative and Parent shall meet, confer and exchange any additional relevant information reasonably requested by the other Party regarding the computation of the Adjustment Amount for a period of twenty (20) days following the delivery of the Adjustment Dispute Notice to Parent, and use reasonable best efforts to resolve by written agreement (the “Agreed Modifications”) any differences as to the Adjustment Amount. In the event Parent and the Member Representative so resolve any such differences, the Adjustment Amount set forth in the Parent Closing Statement, as adjusted by the Agreed Modifications, shall be final and binding as the Adjustment Amount for all purposes of this Agreement. If the Member Representative and Parent are unable to reach agreement on the calculation of the Adjustment Amount within the twenty (20) day period following the delivery of the Adjustment Dispute Notice to Parent, then either the Member Representative or Parent may submit the objections to a nationally recognized independent accounting firm reasonably acceptable to the Member Representative and Parent (such firm, or any successor thereto, being referred to herein as the “Designated Accounting Firm”) after such twentieth (20th) day. Any further submissions to the Designated Accounting Firm must be written and delivered to each party to the dispute. No Party shall engage in any ex-parte communication with the Designated Accounting Firm. In resolving any disputed item, the Designated Accounting Firm (x) shall determine the Closing Working Capital, Closing Indebtedness, Closing Cash and Company Transaction Expenses solely on the written presentations by Parent and the Member Representative which are in accordance with the respective definitions set forth in this Agreement and the Specified Accounting Principles, (y) shall limit its review to matters still in dispute as specifically set forth in the Adjustment Dispute Notice (and only to the extent such matters are still in dispute) and (z) shall act as an expert and not as an arbitrator. The Designated Accounting Firm shall be directed by Parent and the Member Representative to resolve the unresolved objections as promptly as reasonably practicable in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and, in any event, within thirty (30) days of such referral (or such later time as the Parties may mutually agree), and, upon reaching such determination, to deliver a copy of its calculations (the “Expert Calculations”) to the Member Representative, Parent and the Escrow Agent. The determination of the Adjustment Amount made by the Designated Accounting Firm shall be final and binding on Parent, the Member Representative, the Company Securityholders and the Cash Plan Award Holders for all purposes of this Agreement, absent fraud or manifest error. The Expert Calculations (A) shall reflect in detail the differences, if any, between the calculation of the Adjustment Amount reflected in the Adjustment Dispute Notice and the calculation of the Adjustment Amount set forth in the Parent Closing Statement and (B) with respect to any specific discrepancy or disagreement, shall be no greater than the higher amount calculated by Parent or the Member Representative, as the case may be, and no lower than the lower amount calculated by Parent or the Member Representative, as the case may be. The fees and expenses of the Designated Accounting Firm shall be borne by Parent, on the one hand, and the Member Representative, on behalf of the Company Securityholders and the Cash Plan Award Holders, on the other hand, in inverse proportion as they may prevail on the matters resolved by the Designated Accounting Firm, which proportionate allocation shall be calculated on an aggregate basis based on the relative dollar values of the amounts in dispute and shall be determined by the Designated Accounting Firm at the time the determination is rendered on the merits of the matters submitted to the Designated Accounting Firm.
(vi)If the Adjustment Amount, as finally determined in accordance with this Section 3.4(b), is a negative number, then Parent and the Member Representative shall promptly (and in any event within three (3) Business Days following the final determination of the Adjustment Amount) issue joint written instructions to the Escrow
30


Agent directing the Escrow Agent to disburse to the SimpleNexus Surviving Company from the Escrow Fund in accordance with the Escrow Agreement an amount in cash equal to the absolute value of the Adjustment Amount.
(vii)If the Adjustment Amount, as finally determined in accordance with this Section 3.4(b), is a positive number, then Parent shall promptly (and in any event within three (3) Business Days following the final determination of the Adjustment Amount) (x) deposit with the Exchange Agent for disbursement to the Blocker Securityholders and the Non-Blocker Members (in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Portion of the Escrow Fund) an amount in cash equal to their respective aggregate Pro Rata Portion of the Adjustment Amount and (y) pay, or cause to be paid, to the SimpleNexus Surviving Company for further distribution to the holders of Cash Plan Awards (in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Portion of the Escrow Fund) in accordance with Section 3.2(k)(iii) an amount in cash equal to their respective aggregate Pro Rata Portion of the Adjustment Amount; provided, that, such amount shall not exceed an amount equal to the amount in the Escrow Fund.
(viii)Following the final determination of the Adjustment Amount in accordance with this Section 3.4(b), Parent and the Member Representative shall promptly (and in any event within three (3) Business Days following the final determination of the Adjustment Amount) execute and deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to release from the Escrow Fund (x) to the Exchange Agent for distribution to the Blocker Securityholders and Non-Blocker Members their respective aggregate Pro Rata Portion of the amount then held in the Escrow Fund and (y) to the SimpleNexus Surviving Company for further distribution in cash to the holders of Cash Plan Awards in accordance with Section 3.2(k)(iii) their respective aggregate Pro Rata Portion of the amount then held in the Escrow Fund (collectively, the “Released Cash”). The Exchange Agent will then disburse to the Blocker Securityholders and Non-Blocker Members (in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Portion of the Escrow Fund) the portion of the Released Cash released for the benefit of the Blocker Securityholders and Non-Blocker Members in accordance with the payment delivery instructions set forth in such Blocker Securityholder’s and Non-Blocker Member’s Letter of Transmittal.
Section 3.5.Closing of the Company’s Transfer Books; Exchange Procedures; Member Expense Fund; Escrow Fund
(a)At the Company Effective Time, holders of Company Units that were outstanding immediately prior to the Company Effective Time shall cease to have any rights as Company Members (except the right to receive the amount in cash and the number of shares of Parent Common Stock pursuant to Section 3.2), and the register of members and books of the Company shall be closed with respect to all Company Units held by the Company Members prior to the Company Effective Time. No further transfer of any such Company Units shall be made on such register of members or books after the Company Effective Time. If, after the Company Effective Time, valid evidence of ownership of Company Units is presented to and accepted by the Exchange Agent, the nCino Surviving Corporation, the SimpleNexus Surviving Company or Parent in accordance with this Section 3.5, such Company Units shall be canceled and shall be exchanged as provided in this Section 3.5.
(b)Prior to the Company Effective Time, nCino and the Member Representative shall appoint U.S. Bank as agent (the “Exchange Agent”) for the purposes of effecting the exchange of cash for the Company Units, other than those Company Units held by the Blockers, and Blocker Securities entitled to payment pursuant to this Agreement, by entering into an Exchange Agent Agreement with the Exchange Agent, in a form reasonably acceptable to nCino and the
31


Member Representative (the “Exchange Agent Agreement”). At the Closing, the nCino Surviving Corporation shall deliver to the Exchange Agent to be held in trust and distributed in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Exchange Agent Agreement, an amount in cash equal to the portion of the Closing Cash Consideration to be paid to the Blocker Securityholders and Non-Blocker Members pursuant to Section 3.2, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by the Exchange Agent in writing prior to the Closing Date. Each of nCino and the Company shall bear 50% of the fees and expenses of the Exchange Agent.
(c)Promptly after the Company Effective Time (and in no event later than one (1) Business Day following the Closing Date), Parent shall instruct the Exchange Agent to send to each Blocker Securityholder and Non-Blocker Member a letter of transmittal and instructions in the form of Exhibit E hereto (the “Letter of Transmittal”), which shall include an acknowledgement and agreement to be bound by the provisions of Section 11.1 of this Agreement, for use in such exchange. Upon the delivery to the Exchange Agent of a properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal in accordance with the instructions thereto, and any other documents reasonably requested by the Exchange Agent, such Blocker Securityholder or Non-Blocker Member shall be entitled to receive an amount in cash and the number of shares of Parent Common Stock that, in each case, such holder has the right to receive therefor pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.2.
(d)The Exchange Agent shall, promptly after receipt of each properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal and any other documents reasonably requested by the Exchange Agent (collectively, the “Exchange Documents”) (and in no event later than five (5) Business Days following such receipt), (x) provide written notice to Parent’s transfer agent of the same so as to permit, and Parent shall cause, Parent’s transfer agent to cause the issuance of the number of shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued to such Blocker Securityholder or Non-Blocker Member pursuant to Section 3.2 in uncertificated book-entry form on the transfer books of Parent as designated by such Blocker Securityholder or Non-Blocker Member in its Letter of Transmittal and (y) cause the payment of the amount in cash to be paid to such Blocker Securityholder or Non-Blocker Member pursuant to Section 3.2 as designated by such Blocker Securityholder or Non-Blocker Member in its Letter of Transmittal; provided, that the Exchange Agent shall take such actions or cause such actions to be taken on the Closing Date for any Blocker Securityholder or Non-Blocker Member that has delivered duly executed and completed Exchange Documents to the Exchange Agent at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date if the Exchange Agent shall have also received a final, signed copy of the Consideration Spreadsheet at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date. Until such Exchange Documents have been delivered, each outstanding Blocker Security or Company Unit held by the Blocker Securityholders and the Non-Blocker Members, respectively, will be deemed from and after the Blocker Effective Times and the Company Effective Time, respectively, for all purposes, to evidence only the right to receive, contingent upon such delivery, the amount in cash and the number of shares of Parent Common Stock as contemplated pursuant to Section 3.2.
(e)At the Closing, nCino shall deliver to (i) the Member Representative the Member Expense Fund, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by the Member Representative in writing at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, which amount shall be held in accordance with this Agreement, and (ii) U.S. Bank (the “Escrow Agent”), as the escrow agent under the Escrow Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, the Escrow Fund, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by the Escrow Agent in writing prior to the Closing Date, which amount shall be held by the Escrow Agent in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement. The terms and provisions of the Escrow Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby are specific terms of the Mergers, and the approval and adoption of this Agreement and approval of the Mergers by the Company Members pursuant to the Company Requisite Approval and by the Blocker Securityholders
32


pursuant to the respective Blocker Requisite Approval shall constitute approval of the terms and provisions of the Escrow Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby by such Company Members and Blocker Securityholders, as specific terms of the Mergers. By executing the Company Requisite Approval and the respective Blocker Requisite Approval, each Company Securityholder will have irrevocably agreed to be bound by and comply with the applicable obligations relating to the Escrow Agreement and all of the arrangements and provisions of this Agreement relating thereto, including the deposit of the Escrow Fund. Each of nCino and the Company shall bear 50% of the fees and expenses of the Escrow Agent.
(f)Any portion of the Closing Merger Consideration that was deposited with the Exchange Agent and remains undistributed to Blocker Securityholders and Non-Blocker Members as of the twelve (12) month anniversary of the Company Effective Time shall be delivered to Parent upon demand, and Blocker Securityholders and Non-Blocker Members who have not theretofore delivered the Exchange Documents to the Exchange Agent pursuant to Section 3.5(d) shall thereafter (if Parent has made such demand) look only to Parent for satisfaction of their claims for any Closing Merger Consideration payable with respect to the Blocker Securities or Company Units, without any interest thereon. None of Parent, the Surviving Entities, the Exchange Agent, the Escrow Agent or the Member Representative shall be liable to any holder or former holder of Blocker Securities or Company Units for the Closing Merger Consideration attributable to such Blocker Securities or Company Units or for any other cash amounts properly delivered to any public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.
(g)Each nCino Certificate immediately prior to the nCino Effective Time shall, from and after the nCino Effective Time, represent shares of Parent Common Stock constituting the nCino Merger Consideration; provided, however, that if an exchange of nCino Certificates for new certificates is required by Law or applicable rule or regulation, or is desired at any time by Parent, in its sole discretion, Parent shall arrange for such exchange on a one-for-one-share basis. At the nCino Effective Time, Parent shall cause its transfer agent to exchange by book entry transfer all uncertificated shares of nCino Common Stock (excluding any shares of nCino Common Stock to be canceled pursuant to Section 3.1(a)) for shares of Parent Common Stock constituting the nCino Merger Consideration. For the avoidance of doubt, from and after the nCino Effective Time, the holders of such nCino Certificates which have been exchanged for certificates of Parent Common Stock, as well as those shares of nCino Common Stock exchanged by book entry pursuant to this Section 3.5(g), shall be entitled to receive dividends and distributions made with respect to shares of Parent Common Stock.
Section 3.6.Further Assurances. At and after the Effective Times, the officers and directors of Parent, the nCino Surviving Corporation, the SimpleNexus Surviving Company, or the Surviving Blockers, as applicable, shall be authorized to execute and deliver, in the name and on behalf of the nCino Surviving Corporation, nCino Merger Sub or nCino, the SimpleNexus Surviving Company, Company Merger Sub or the Company, or any Surviving Blocker, its relevant Blocker Merger Sub or its relevant Blocker, as applicable, any deeds, bills of sale, assignments or assurances and to take and do, in the name and on behalf of the nCino Surviving Corporation, nCino Merger Sub or nCino, the SimpleNexus Surviving Company, Company Merger Sub or the Company, or any Surviving Blocker, its relevant Blocker Merger Sub or its relevant Blocker, as applicable, any other actions and things necessary to vest, perfect or confirm of record or otherwise in Parent, the nCino Surviving Corporation, the SimpleNexus Surviving Company, or the Surviving Blockers, as applicable, any and all right, title and interest in, to and under any of the rights, properties or assets acquired or to be acquired by Parent, the nCino Surviving Corporation, the SimpleNexus Surviving Company, or the Surviving Blockers, as applicable, as a result of, or in connection with, the Transactions, including the Mergers.
Section 3.7.nCino Stock Options, Other Stock-Based Awards and Equity Plans.
33


(a)As of the nCino Effective Time, (i) each nCino Stock Option that is outstanding immediately prior to the nCino Effective Time, whether or not then vested or exercisable, shall be assumed by Parent and shall be converted automatically into a Parent Stock Option on substantially the same terms and conditions (including vesting schedule and per share exercise price) as applied to such nCino Stock Option immediately prior to the nCino Effective Time; (ii) each nCino RSU, whether or not vested, that is outstanding immediately prior to the nCino Effective Time shall be assumed by Parent and shall be converted automatically into a Parent RSU on substantially the same terms and conditions (including vesting and delivery schedule) as applied to such nCino RSU immediately prior to the nCino Effective Time, and (iii) Parent shall assume the nCino Equity Incentive Plans and the shares of nCino Common Stock available for issuance under the nCino Equity Incentive Plans shall automatically convert into Parent Common Stock.
(b)Not later than the Closing Date, Parent shall deliver to the holders of nCino Stock Options and nCino RSUs any required notices setting forth the effect of the Mergers on such holders’ rights and describing the treatment of such awards in accordance with this Section 3.7.
(c)As of the nCino Effective Time, subject to applicable Law, any right to purchase shares of nCino Common Stock under the nCino, Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “nCino ESPP”) shall be assumed by Parent and converted into the right to purchase shares of Parent Common Stock, subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable under the nCino ESPP, and the nCino ESPP and such purchase rights shall be assumed by Parent and the shares available for issuance under the nCino ESPP shall automatically convert into Parent Common Stock.
(d)Prior to the nCino Effective Time, nCino shall take all necessary action to effectuate the provisions of this Section 3.7. Parent shall reserve for future issuance a number of shares of Parent Common Stock at least equal to the number of shares of Parent Common Stock that will be subject to nCino Stock Options and nCino RSUs as a result of the actions contemplated by this Section 3.7.
(e)Not later than the Closing Date, Parent shall file an effective registration statement on Form S-8 (or other applicable form) with respect to the shares of Parent Common Stock subject to the nCino Equity Incentive Plan, nCino ESPP and such Parent Stock Options and Parent RSUs, and shall distribute a prospectus relating to such Form S-8, and Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement or registration statements (and maintain the current status of the prospectus or prospectuses contained therein) for so long as such Parent Stock Options and Parent RSUs remain outstanding.
Section 3.8.Withholding. Parent and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as may be required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or under any provision of state, local or foreign tax Law. Parent and the Exchange Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) provide the Blocker Securityholders or Non-Blocker Members, as applicable, with written notice of any amounts that Parent and the Exchange Agent intend to deduct or withhold from any amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement reasonably in advance of the payment thereof (other than any amounts treated as compensation for Tax purposes or any withholding described in Section 7.12) and (ii) cooperate in good faith with Blocker Securityholders or Non-Blocker Members, as applicable, to seek to eliminate or reduce any such withholding or deduction. Any amount deducted or withheld pursuant to this Section 3.8 shall be treated as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction or withholding was made. In the case of any amounts withheld from any payments not consisting entirely of cash, Parent or the Exchange Agent shall be treated as though it withheld an appropriate amount of Parent Common Stock otherwise payable pursuant to this
34


Agreement to any Blocker Securityholders or Non-Blocker Members, sold such Parent Common Stock for an amount of cash equal to its fair market value at the time of such deemed sale and paid such cash proceeds to the Blocker Securityholders or Non-Blocker Members in respect of which such deduction or withholding was made. Parent or the Exchange Agent, as applicable, shall pay, or shall cause to be paid, all amounts so deducted or withheld to the appropriate taxing authority within the period required under applicable Law.
Section 3.9.Fractional Shares. The number of shares of Parent Common Stock (a) into which shares of nCino Common Stock are converted or (b) that are issuable to a Blocker Securityholder or Non-Blocker Member as such holder’s Pro Rata Portion of the Closing Stock Consideration, as the case may be, pursuant to this Article III shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no fractional shares of Parent Common Stock will be issued, and if, after aggregating all shares of Parent Common Stock (including fractional shares) that would be issued hereunder to a holder of shares of nCino Common Stock or to a Blocker Securityholder or Non-Blocker Member as such holder’s Pro Rata Portion of the Closing Stock Consideration, such aggregate number of shares of Parent Common Stock includes a fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock, no certificates or scrip for any such fractional shares shall be issued hereunder and such holder shall receive an amount in cash equal to the product of (a) such fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock multiplied by (b) the nCino Stock Price.
Section 3.10.Certain Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if, from the date of this Agreement until the Effective Times, the outstanding shares of Parent Common Stock or nCino Common Stock shall have been changed into a different number of shares or a different class by reason of any reclassification, stock split (including a reverse stock split), recapitalization, split-up, combination, exchange of shares, readjustment, or other similar transaction, or a stock dividend or stock distribution thereon shall be declared with a record date within said period, the Closing Stock Consideration and any other similarly dependent items, as the case may be, without duplication, shall be equitably adjusted to provide the holders of nCino Common Stock and Blocker Securityholders and Non-Blocker Members the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event. Nothing in this Section 3.10 shall be construed to permit the Parties to take any action that is otherwise prohibited by this Agreement, including pursuant to Article VII.

(b)nCino has established and maintains disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting (as such terms are defined in paragraphs (e) and (f), respectively, of Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act) as required in all material respects by Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act. nCino’s disclosure controls and procedures are reasonably designed to ensure that all material information required to be disclosed by nCino in the reports that it files or furnishes under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that all such material information is accumulated and communicated to nCino’s management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and to make the certifications required pursuant to Sections 302 and 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. nCino’s management has completed an assessment of the effectiveness of nCino’s internal controls over financial reporting in compliance with the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act for the year ended January 31, 2021, and, to the extent required by Law, presented in any applicable nCino SEC Document that is a report on Form 10-K or Form 10-Q, or any amendment thereto, its conclusions about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by such report or amendment based on such evaluation. Based on nCino’s management’s most recently completed evaluation of nCino’s internal control over financial reporting, (i) nCino had no significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in the design or
65


operation of its internal control over financial reporting that would reasonably be expected to adversely affect nCino’s ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information and (ii) nCino does not have knowledge of any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in nCino’s internal control over financial reporting. The assessment of the effectiveness of nCino’s internal controls over financial reporting has been audited by Ernst & Young LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which is included in the nCino SEC Documents.
Section 6.16.Financing. As of the date hereof, nCino has, and at the Closing, nCino will have, sufficient funds available to it (including cash, available lines of credit or other sources of immediately available funds) to permit nCino, Parent and the Merger Subs to consummate the Transactions upon the terms contemplated by this Agreement, including the payment of all amounts payable hereunder or otherwise as a result of the Mergers.
Section 6.17. Solvency. Immediately after giving effect to the Transactions, assuming the representations and warranties of the Company set forth in Article IV are true and correct such that the condition set forth in Section 9.2(a) would be satisfied, (a) Parent and each of its Subsidiaries shall be able to pay their respective debts as they become due and shall own property that has a fair saleable value greater than the amounts required to pay their respective debts (including a reasonable estimate of the amount of all contingent liabilities) and (b) Parent and each of its Subsidiaries shall have adequate capital to carry on their respective businesses.
Section 6.18.Finders’ Fees. Except for BofA Securities, Inc., neither nCino nor any of its Subsidiaries has employed any investment banker, broker or finder in connection with the Transactions who might be entitled to any fee or any commission in connection with or upon consummation of the Mergers.
Section 6.19.No Additional Representations. Except for the representations and warranties set forth in Article IV and Article V and in any certificate, instrument or other deliverable required to be executed and delivered by the Company or any of the Blockers pursuant to this Agreement, as applicable, each of nCino, Parent and each Merger Sub, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates and Representatives, acknowledges and agrees that (a) none of the Acquired Companies, the Blockers or any other Person on behalf of any of them has made or is making any express or implied representation or warranty with respect to any of the Acquired Companies, the Blockers or any of their respective Affiliates or any of their respective businesses, operations, condition (financial or otherwise), the pro forma financial information, cost estimates, financial or other projections, forecasts, estimates, budgets, plans or any other forward-looking statements of any Acquired Company or Blocker or any other matter or with respect to any other information, documents or other materials (including any such materials contained in the VDR or reviewed by nCino, Parent or the Merger Subs or any of their respective Affiliates or Representatives) or management presentations provided to nCino, Parent or the Merger Subs or any of their respective Affiliates or Representatives, (b) nCino, Parent and the Merger Subs shall acquire the Acquired Companies and the Blockers without any representation or warranty as to merchantability or fitness for any particular purpose of their respective assets and (c) any such other representations or warranties are expressly disclaimed by the Acquired Companies and the Blockers, and neither nCino, Parent nor the Merger Subs, nor any Person on their behalf, is entitled to rely on, or has relied on or is relying on, any such representation or warranty, if made.

modified in such a manner as to adversely affect the rights of any Indemnitee to whom this Section 7.5 applies unless (x) such termination or modification is required by applicable Law or (y) the affected Indemnitee shall have consented in writing to such termination or modification (it being expressly agreed that the Indemnitees to whom this Section 7.5 applies shall be third party beneficiaries of this Section 7.5).
(f)Nothing in this Agreement is intended to, shall be construed to or shall release, waive or impair any rights to directors’ and officers’ insurance claims under any policy that is or has been in existence with respect to nCino or the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries for any of their respective directors, managers, officers or other employees, it being understood and agreed that the indemnification provided for in this Section 7.5 is not prior to or in substitution for any such claims under such policies.
Section 7.6.Stock Exchange Listing. Parent and nCino shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause the shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued in connection with the Mergers and shares of Parent Common Stock to be reserved upon exercise of options to purchase Parent Common Stock (including shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued in connection with the treatment of the nCino Equity Incentive Plans hereunder, as applicable) to be listed on Nasdaq, subject to official notice of issuance, prior to the respective Effective Times.
Section 7.7.Registration Statement.
(a)Promptly, and in any event no later than one (1) Business Day following the Closing Date, Parent will file with the SEC a registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) registering the resale of the Closing Stock Consideration (the “Registrable Securities”) by the holders thereof (the “Selling Shareholders”), and Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof; provided, however, that Parent’s obligations to include a given Selling Shareholder’s Registrable Securities in the Registration Statement are contingent upon such Selling Shareholder furnishing a Selling Shareholder Questionnaire as contemplated by Section 7.7(b). If Parent is eligible to file a Registration Statement on Form S3 pursuant to Rule 462(e) under the Securities Act (an “Automatic Registration Statement”), the Registration Statement shall be an Automatic Registration Statement. If Parent is not eligible to use an Automatic Registration Statement, the Registration Statement shall be on Form S3, or if Form S3 is not available to Parent, another appropriate form. If the Registration Statement is not an Automatic Registration Statement, Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practicable after such Registration Statement is filed. Parent will advise the Member Representative promptly after Parent receives any request by the SEC for amendment of the Registration Statement or any SEC comments thereon. Once the Registration Statement is declared effective, Parent shall notify the Member Representative of such declaration, and thereafter, subject to the other applicable provisions of this Agreement, shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the Registration Statement to be continuously effective and usable until the date that is the earlier to occur of (i) the date on which all Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement have been sold in accordance with the Registration Statement or (ii) such time as each of the Selling Shareholders is eligible to sell the Registrable Securities under Rule 144 without limitation as to volume, manner of sale or other limitations (such period, the “Registration Period”). Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the Registration Statement (including the documents incorporated therein by reference) to comply as to form in all material respects with all applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act.
(b) The Member Representative shall use commercially reasonable efforts to collect from each Blocker Securityholder and Non-Blocker Member and deliver to Parent a completed and executed selling shareholders questionnaire substantially in the form attached hereto as
75


Exhibit G (each, a “Selling Shareholder Questionnaire”). The Registration Statement (or any prospectus or prospectus supplement forming a part of such Registration Statement), as initially filed, shall include the Registrable Securities of all Selling Shareholders for whom Parent has received completed Selling Shareholder Questionnaires on or before the second (2nd) Business Day following the Closing. Parent further agrees to provide in the Registration Statement (and in any prospectus or prospectus supplement forming a part of such Registration Statement) that all transferees, pledgees, distributees, donees or other successors (collectively, “Transferees”) of a Selling Shareholder shall, by virtue of receiving Registrable Securities in such a transfer, be deemed to be Selling Shareholders under the Registration Statement (or any such prospectus or prospectus supplement) with respect to the Registrable Securities received by such Transferees in such transfers; provided, that such transfers are made in accordance with Section 6.1 of the Investors’ Rights Agreement, the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of Parent, and applicable securities Laws. Parent shall include disclosure in the plan of distribution in the Registration Statement (and any prospectus or prospectus supplement forming a part of such Registration Statement) that Transferees will be covered by the Registration Statement. Parent’s obligations with respect to settling any offering or sale of Registrable Securities shall be as set forth in the Section 2.12(c) of the Investors’ Rights Agreement.
(c)Parent will provide a draft of the Registration Statement to the Member Representative for review at least three (3) Business Days in advance of filing the Registration Statement and shall consider in good faith any reasonable comments made by the Member Representative regarding the Registration Statement and incorporate therein any agreed upon changes. In no event shall any Selling Shareholder be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement unless requested by the SEC. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the SEC prevents Parent from including any or all of the Closing Stock Consideration proposed to be registered for resale under the Registration Statement due to limitations on the use of Rule 415 of the Securities Act for the resale of the Closing Stock Consideration by the applicable selling shareholder or otherwise, (i) such Registration Statement shall register for resale such amount of the Closing Stock Consideration which is equal to the maximum amount of the Closing Stock Consideration as is permitted by the SEC and (ii) the amount of the Closing Stock Consideration to be registered for each Selling Shareholder named in the Registration Statement shall be reduced pro rata among all such Selling Shareholders; and as promptly as practicable after being permitted to register additional amount of the Closing Stock Consideration under Rule 415 under the Securities Act, Parent shall amend the Registration Statement or file a new Registration Statement to register such amount of the Closing Stock Consideration not included in the initial Registration Statement and cause such amendment or Registration Statement to become effective as promptly as practicable.
(d)Parent shall notify the Member Representative promptly upon discovery that, or upon the discovery of the happening of any event as a result of which, the Registration Statement or any supplement to any prospectus forming a part of the Registration Statement contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits any fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, and, as promptly as practicable, use reasonable best efforts to supplement or amend such prospectus so that such prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements made therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances under which they were made. After the Registration Statement becomes effective, Parent shall notify the Member Representative of any request by the SEC that Parent amend or supplement such Registration Statement or prospectus, and Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to the Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be reasonably necessary to keep the Registration Statement effective and to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement. Parent shall furnish to each Selling Shareholder such numbers of copies of a
76


prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, and any supplement to any prospectus, as required by the Securities Act and shall take such other actions (including causing the removal of any restricted legends with respect to any shares that have been sold), as the Selling Shareholders may reasonably request in order to facilitate their disposition of their Registrable Securities, subject to each Selling Shareholder providing any information reasonably requested by Parent to facilitate such action.
(e)Parent shall indemnify and hold harmless each Selling Shareholder (and the partners, members, officers, directors, and stockholders of each such Selling Shareholder; legal counsel and accountants for each such Selling Shareholder; any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) for each such Selling Shareholder; and each Person, if any, who controls such Selling Shareholder or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) in a manner that is consistent with the indemnification rights provided to selling Holders of Registrable Securities included in a registration statement as set forth in Section 2.8(a) – (d) of the Investors’ Rights Agreement, as if such Registrable Securities were Registrable Securities thereunder and such Selling Shareholders were Holders thereunder and signatories thereto.
(f)All of the expenses incurred in connection with any registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Agreement, including all SEC fees, blue sky registration and filing fees, listing notices and filing fees, printing fees and expenses, transfer agents’ and registrars’ fees and expenses and all fees and expenses of Parent’s outside counsel and independent accountants of Parent shall be paid by Parent. Parent shall not be responsible for any selling expenses of any Selling Shareholder (including any broker’s fees or commissions) or fees or expenses of outside counsel or independent accountants of Selling Shareholder or, to the extent incurred prior to the Closing, the Company or any Blocker in connection with the Registration Statement.
(g)Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to register or qualify or cooperate with the Selling Shareholders in connection with the registration or qualification (or exemption from such registration or qualification) of the Registrable Securities for offer and sale under the applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws of those jurisdictions within the United States as any Selling Shareholder reasonably requests in writing to keep each such registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom) effective until the end of the Registration Period; provided, that Parent will not be required to (A) qualify generally to do business as a foreign corporation or as a dealer in securities in any jurisdiction wherein it would not but for the requirements of this paragraph be obligated to be so qualified, (B) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction or (C) file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction.
(h)Other than transfers pursuant to the Registration Statement, all Closing Stock Consideration will be subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 2.12 of the Investors’ Rights Agreement as if such Registrable Securities were Registrable Securities thereunder and such Selling Shareholders were Holders thereunder and signatories thereto.
Section 7.8.Employee Benefit Plans.
(a)During the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the first (1st) anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Continuation Period”), nCino and Parent shall provide, or shall cause the Surviving Entities to provide, employees who continue to be employed by the Company as of the Closing Date and who remain so employed immediately following the Closing Date (collectively, “Continuing Employees”) with (i) the same salary or hourly wage rate and annual incentive compensation opportunities (excluding any equity or equity-based compensation) as provided to such Continuing Employees immediately prior to the Closing Date and (ii) employee benefits that are substantially similar in the aggregate to the employee benefits provided to similarly-situated employees of the nCino Surviving Corporation during such period.
77


(b)nCino and Parent further agree that, from and after the Closing Date, nCino and Parent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to, and to cause the Surviving Entities to, grant all Continuing Employees credit for any service with the Company earned prior to the Closing Date for eligibility, vesting and benefit accrual purposes (excluding benefit accruals under any defined benefit plan or retiree welfare benefit plan, as well as vesting for purposes of any equity or equity-based plan or arrangement, but including, without limitation, for purposes of any other welfare plan, retirement plan, vacation, paid time off, personal leave or sick leave program, or severance program) under any benefit or compensation plan, program, agreement or arrangement sponsored, maintained or contributed to by Parent or the Surviving Entities in which the Continuing Employees commence participation on or after the Closing Date (collectively, the “New Plans”), to the extent such Continuing Employees participated in an analogous Company Benefit Plan immediately prior to the Closing and except where such service credit was not recognized under an analogous Company Benefit Plan immediately prior to the Closing and as would result in duplication of benefits. In addition, nCino and Parent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to, or to cause the Surviving Entities to, (x) cause to be waived all pre-existing condition exclusions and actively at work requirements and similar limitations, eligibility waiting periods and evidence of insurability requirements under any New Plans to the extent waived or satisfied by a Continuing Employee under any analogous Company Benefit Plan as of the date on which commencement of participation in such New Plan begins, and (y) cause any deductible, co-insurance and covered out-of-pocket expenses paid under any Company Benefit Plan during the calendar year in which commencement of participation in an analogous New Plan begins and prior to such commencement of participation by any Continuing Employee (or covered dependent thereof) to be taken into account for purposes of satisfying the corresponding deductible, coinsurance and maximum out of pocket provisions under such New Plan in the year of initial participation.
(c)No later than one (1) Business Day prior to the Company Effective Time, the Company shall provide Parent and nCino with resolutions evidencing, effective as of at least one (1) day prior to such date, the termination of the SimpleNexus 401(k) Plan and any other Company Benefit Plan that contains a cash or deferred arrangement intended to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Code (the “Company 401(k) Plans”); provided, nCino will cause that certain nCino, Inc. 401(k) Plan (the “nCino 401(k) Plan”) to accept rollovers (including rollovers of loans) from and after the Effective Times from the Company 401(k) Plans with respect to employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the Company Effective Time who remain employed with the SimpleNexus Surviving Company or one of its Affiliates following such time and subject to the satisfaction of eligibility provisions (taking into account service credit recognized pursuant to Section 7.8(b)) and other applicable requirements, including as to the tax-qualified status of the Company 401(k) Plan and of the nCino 401(k) Plan. Effective not later than the Closing Date, nCino shall have in effect one or more defined contribution plans that include a Code Section 401(k) arrangement and a related trust exempt from Tax under Section 501(a) of the Code in which each Continuing Employee participating in the Company 401(k) Plans immediately prior to the Closing Date shall be eligible to participate as of the Closing Date and in which each Continuing Employee who would have become eligible to participate in the applicable Company 401(k) Plans on or after the Closing Date shall become eligible to participate no later than such time as he or she would have become eligible to participate in the such Company 401(k) Plans, subject, in each case, to the terms and conditions of any such plan(s).
(d)In connection with the Closing, nCino will grant equity incentive awards to the key employees, and in the form and amounts, set forth on Section 7.8(d) of the Company Disclosure Schedule.
(e)With respect to Continuing Employees who are eligible for unlimited paid time off pursuant to the Company’s applicable paid time off policy as of immediately prior to the
78


Closing (such policy, the “Company PTO Plan,” and such Continuing Employees, the “Unlimited PTO Employees”), during the Continuation Period, nCino and Parent shall provide, or shall cause the Surviving Entities to provide, each Unlimited PTO Employee with unlimited paid time off in accordance with the terms of the Company PTO Plan. Immediately following the Closing Date, each Unlimited PTO Employee will begin accruing paid vacation, paid time off, and/or personal and sick leave days in accordance with the terms of the applicable New Plan setting forth Parent’s and/or the Surviving Entities’ vacation, paid time off, and/or personal and sick leave policies, taking into account service credit recognized pursuant to Section 7.8(b) (“Parent PTO Plan”), and such Unlimited PTO Employee will be required to use any available vacation, paid time off, and/or personal and sick leave days accrued following the Closing in accordance with the terms of the applicable Parent PTO Plan before such Unlimited PTO Employee may use any unlimited paid time off pursuant to the Company PTO Plan. For the avoidance of doubt, from and after the end of the Continuation Period, the Unlimited PTO Employees will not be eligible to use any unlimited paid time off pursuant to the Company PTO Plan.
(f)No provision of this Section 7.8 shall be construed as a limitation on the right of Parent, or to cause nCino, the Company and their respective Affiliates to, amend or terminate any specific Company Benefit Plan or any benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement maintained, sponsored or contributed or required to be contributed to by nCino or any of its successors or Affiliates (“nCino Benefit Plan”) that the Company or nCino would otherwise have under the terms of such Company Benefit Plan or nCino Benefit Plan, or shall any provision of this Section 7.8 be construed to require the continuation of the employment or services of any Person. The provisions of this Section 7.8 are solely for the benefit of the Parties to this Agreement, and no current or former director, officer, employee or independent contractor or any other Person shall be a third-party beneficiary of this Section 7.8 of this Agreement, and nothing herein shall be construed as an amendment to any Company Benefit Plan or nCino Benefit Plan or other compensation or benefit plan or arrangement for any purpose.

(a)Subject to the Confidentiality Agreement, during the Interim Period, the Company shall and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to (i) give nCino and its Representatives reasonable access during normal business hours, and upon reasonable notice, to the facilities, properties, senior personnel, Contracts, operating and financial reports, work papers, books and records of the Acquired Companies and (ii) furnish to nCino and its Representatives such financial and operating data and other information, in each case, that is currently in existence or prepared by the Acquired Companies in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice and relating to the Acquired Companies as such Persons may reasonably request for purposes of consummating the Transactions; provided, that no information or knowledge obtained by nCino or its Representatives in any investigation conducted pursuant to the access contemplated by this Section 8.1 shall affect or be deemed to modify any representation or warranty of the Company set forth in this Agreement or otherwise impair the rights and remedies available to nCino, Parent and the Merger Subs hereunder. During the Interim Period, each Blocker, consistent with applicable Law, shall provide nCino and its Representatives, upon reasonable notice, with such information and materials relating to such Blocker as is reasonably requested by nCino or its Representatives for purposes of consummating the Transactions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 8.1, any investigation pursuant to this Section 8.1 shall be conducted in such manner as not to interfere unreasonably with the conduct of the business or operations of the Acquired Companies and the Blockers.
(b)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 8.1, the Acquired Companies and the Blockers may restrict or otherwise prohibit access to such
82


documents or information to the extent that (i) any applicable Law requires the Acquired Companies or the Blockers to restrict or otherwise prohibit access to such documents or information, (ii) access to such documents or information would give rise to a material risk of causing a waiver of any attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine or other privilege applicable to such documents or information or (iii) access to such documents or information would cause such Acquired Company or Blocker to be in breach of, or give a third party the right to terminate or accelerate the rights under, any Contract. Without limiting the foregoing, in the event that any Acquired Company or Blocker does not provide access or information in reliance on the immediately preceding sentence, it shall provide notice to nCino that it is withholding such access or information and shall use reasonable efforts to communicate the applicable information in a reasonable way that would not violate the applicable Law or Contract, or risk waiver of such privilege, including by using commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the required consent of any third party necessary to provide such disclosure or developing a reasonable alternative to providing such information so as to address such matters.
Section 8.2.Notices of Certain Events. During the Interim Period, the Company and the Blockers shall, and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to, promptly notify nCino, if the Company, the Blockers or their respective Subsidiaries become aware, of:

(b)any event, condition, fact or circumstance that would make the satisfaction of any of the conditions set forth in Article IX impossible or reasonably unlikely by the Outside Date.
No such notice given pursuant to this Section 8.2 shall be deemed to supplement or amend the Company Disclosure Schedule for the purpose of (x) determining the accuracy of any of the representations and warranties made by the Company in this Agreement or (y) determining whether any condition set forth in Article IX has been satisfied. The terms and conditions of the Confidentiality Agreement shall apply to any information obtained by nCino pursuant to this Section 8.2.

(a)By the mutual written consent of nCino and the Company.
(b)By either of the Company or nCino:

(c)By the Company if nCino, Parent or any Merger Sub shall have breached or failed to perform any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement, which breach or failure to perform (i) would give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Sections 9.3(a) or 9.3(b) (assuming that the date of such determination is the Closing Date) and (ii) is not cured or is incapable of being cured within twenty (20) Business Days following delivery by the Company to nCino of written notice of such breach of failure to perform; provided, however, the Company shall not have a right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.1(c) if it is then in breach of any representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements contained in this Agreement that would result in a failure of a condition set forth in Section 9.1 or Section 9.2.

No termination of this Agreement shall affect the obligations of the parties contained in the Confidentiality Agreement, all of which obligations shall survive the termination of this Agreement in accordance with their terms.

A termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.1, or an amendment or waiver of this Agreement pursuant to Sections 11.2 or 11.3 shall, in order to be effective, require, in the case of the Company, nCino, Parent and the Merger Subs, action by their respective boards of directors or a duly authorized committee thereof, followed by written notice to the non-terminating Principal Party of the particular Section of this Agreement pursuant to which this Agreement is terminated.
ARTICLE XI.

MISCELLANEOUS
Section 11.1.Member Representative
(a)By virtue of the adoption of this Agreement and the approval of the Mergers and the other Transactions by the Company Members pursuant to the Company Requisite Approval and by the Blocker Securityholders pursuant to the Blocker Requisite Approvals, each of the Company Securityholders irrevocably constituted and appointed Insight Venture Partners, LLC, from and after the date hereof (and by its execution of this Agreement as Member Representative, Insight Venture Partners, LLC hereby accepts its appointment), as the true, exclusive and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact (solely in such capacity, the “Member Representative”) of the Company Securityholders receiving consideration hereunder to act in the name, place and stead of the Company Securityholders in connection with the Transactions, in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement, and to act on behalf of the Company Securityholders in any Proceeding involving this Agreement, to do or refrain from doing all such further acts and things, and to execute all such documents as the Member
90


Representative shall deem necessary or appropriate in connection with the Transactions, including the power:
(i)to execute and deliver all amendments, waivers, ancillary agreements, certificates and documents that the Member Representative deems necessary or appropriate in connection with the consummation of the Transactions;
(ii)to execute and deliver all amendments and waivers to this Agreement that the Member Representative deems necessary or appropriate, whether prior to, at or after the Closing;
(iii)to receive funds for the payment of expenses of the Company Securityholders and apply such funds in payment for such expenses;
(iv)to do or refrain from doing any further act or deed on behalf of the Company Securityholders that the Member Representative deems necessary or appropriate in its sole discretion relating to the subject matter of this Agreement as fully and completely as the Company Securityholders could do if personally present;
(v)to receive service of process in connection with any claims under this Agreement, and to receive and forward notices and other communications pursuant to this Agreement; and
(vi)to (A) dispute or refrain from disputing, on behalf of each Company Securityholder relative to any amounts to be received by such Person under this Agreement, any claim made by nCino, Parent or the Merger Subs under this Agreement, (B) negotiate and compromise, on behalf of each such Company Securityholder, any dispute that may arise under, and exercise or refrain from exercising any remedies available under, this Agreement, and (C) execute, on behalf of each such Company Securityholder, any settlement agreement, release or other document with respect to such dispute or remedy; and
(vii)engage attorneys, accountants, agents or consultants on behalf of the Company Securityholders in connection with this Agreement and paying any fees related thereto.
(b)The Member Representative may be removed or replaced only upon delivery of written notice to the SimpleNexus Surviving Company by the Company Securityholders beneficially owning at least a majority of outstanding Company Units (on an as-converted to Company Common Unit basis) as of immediately prior to the Company Effective Time. Parent, the nCino Surviving Corporation, the SimpleNexus Surviving Company and any other Person may conclusively and absolutely rely, without inquiry, upon any action of the Member Representative in all matters referred to herein. All acts of the Member Representative hereunder in its capacity as such shall be deemed to be acts on behalf of the Company Securityholders and not of the Member Representative individually. The Member Representative shall act for the Company Securityholders on all of the matters set forth in this Agreement in the manner the Member Representative believes to be in the best interest of the Company Securityholders and consistent with the obligations under this Agreement, but the Member Representative shall not be responsible to the Company Securityholders (or the Cash Plan Award Holders) for any damages the Company Securityholders (or the Cash Plan Award Holders) may suffer by the performance of its duties under this Agreement, other than damages arising from willful violation of the Law or gross negligence in the performance of the duties of the Member Representative under this Agreement as determined in a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. The Member Representative may seek the advice of legal
91


counsel in the event of any dispute or question as to the construction of any of the provisions of this Agreement or its duties hereunder, and it shall incur no liability in its capacity as the Member Representative to nCino, Parent, the Merger Subs, the Company, the Blockers, the Company Securityholders or the Cash Plan Award Holders and shall be fully protected with respect to any action taken, omitted or suffered by it in good faith in accordance with the advice of such counsel. The Member Representative shall not by reason of this Agreement have a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Company Securityholder or any Cash Plan Award Holder. The Company Securityholders will indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Member Representative from and against any and all losses, liabilities, damages, claims, penalties, fines, forfeitures, actions, fees, costs and expenses (including the reasonable, documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses of counsel and experts and their staffs and relating to document location, duplication and shipment) (collectively, “Representative Losses”) arising out of or in connection with the Member Representative’s execution and performance of this Agreement and any agreements ancillary hereto, in each case as such Representative Loss is suffered or incurred; provided, that in the event that any such Representative Loss is finally adjudicated to have been directly caused by the fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Member Representative, the Member Representative will reimburse the Company Securityholders the amount of such indemnified Representative Loss to the extent attributable to such fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct. If not paid directly to the Member Representative by the Company Securityholders, any such Representative Losses may be recovered by the Member Representative from the funds in the Member Expense Fund at such time as remaining amounts would otherwise be distributable to the Company Securityholders; provided, that while this section allows the Member Representative to be paid from the aforementioned sources of funds, this does not relieve the Company Securityholders from their obligation to promptly pay such Representative Losses as they are suffered or incurred, nor does it prevent the Member Representative from seeking any remedies available to it at law or otherwise. In no event will the Member Representative be required to advance its own funds on behalf of the Company Securityholders or otherwise. The foregoing indemnities will survive the Closing or the resignation or removal of the Member Representative or the termination of this Agreement.
(c)The Member Representative shall use the Member Expense Fund to pay any expenses incurred by the Member Representative in fulfilling its obligations hereunder and shall distribute (i) to the Exchange Agent for further distribution to the Non-Blocker Members and Blocker Securityholders their respective aggregate Pro Rata Portion of any remaining balance of the Member Expense Funds and (ii) to the SimpleNexus Surviving Company for further distribution to the holders of Cash Plan Awards in accordance with Section 3.2(k)(iii) their respective aggregate Pro Rata Portion of any remaining balance of the Member Expense Funds, upon completion by the Member Representative of its duties hereunder. Any such distributions from the Member Expense Fund in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence shall be paid (x) to the Exchange Agent for further distribution to the Non-Blocker Members and Blocker Securityholders and (y) to the SimpleNexus Surviving Company for further distribution to the holders of Cash Plan Awards in accordance with Section 3.2(k)(iii), in each case, with equal priority and pro rata based on each such Company Securityholder’s or Cash Plan Award Holder’s Pro Rata Portion of the Member Expense Fund. The Company Securityholders and Cash Plan Award Holders will not receive any interest or earnings on the Member Expense Fund and irrevocably transfer and assign to the Member Representative any ownership right that they may otherwise have had in any such interest or earnings. The Member Representative will not be liable for any loss of principal of the Member Expense Fund other than as a result of its gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined in a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. For tax purposes, the Member Expense Fund will be treated as having been received and voluntarily set aside by the Company Securityholders and the Cash Plan Award Holders at the time of Closing.
92


Section 11.2.Amendment and Modification. Subject to applicable Law, this Agreement may be amended, modified and supplemented in any and all respects by written agreement of the Parties at any time prior to the Closing Date with respect to any of the terms contained herein.
Section 11.3.Extension; Waiver. At any time prior to the Effective Times, the Parties may (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other Parties, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or in any document delivered pursuant to this Agreement or (c) waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions contained in this Agreement. Except as required by applicable Law, no waiver of this Agreement shall require the approval of the Company Members. Any agreement on the part of a Party to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such party. The failure of any party to this Agreement to assert any of its rights under this Agreement or otherwise shall not constitute a waiver of such rights, nor shall any single or partial exercise by any party to this Agreement of any of its rights under this Agreement preclude any other or further exercise of such rights or any other rights under this Agreement.
Section 11.4.Non-survival of Representations and Warranties and Covenants. None of the representations and warranties in this Agreement or in any schedule, instrument or other document delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the Effective Times; provided, however, that the covenants set forth in Sections 7.4(a) (Confidentiality) and 8.8 (No Negotiation) shall survive the Closing for a period that is twelve (12) months from the date hereof. Except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, and except for claims in respect of Fraud, after the Effective Times, there shall be no Liability on the part of, nor shall any claim be made by, any Party or any of their respective Affiliates in respect of any covenant or agreement in this Agreement or in any schedule, instrument or other document delivered pursuant to this Agreement to be performed prior to the Closing.
Section 11.5.Expenses. Except as otherwise provided herein, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement, including all third-party legal, accounting, financial advisory, consulting or other fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Mergers and the Transactions, shall be paid by the Party incurring such cost or expense.
Section 11.6.Notices. All notices and other communications required or permitted hereunder, or otherwise made in connection with, this Agreement, shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given (a) when delivered in person, (b) when transmitted by electronic mail (provided that no “error” message, other notification of non-delivery or automated reply is generated unless receipt is otherwise acknowledged), (c) upon receipt after dispatch by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid or (d) on the next Business Day if transmitted by national overnight courier (with confirmation of delivery), in each case, addressed as follows:

94


the other Parties (including by facsimile or via portable document format (.pdf)), it being understood that all Parties need not sign the same counterpart.
Section 11.8.Entire Agreement; Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement (including the Exhibits hereto and the documents and the instruments referred to herein), the Confidentiality Agreement and any agreements entered into contemporaneously herewith: (a) constitute the entire agreement and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof (although any provisions of the Confidentiality Agreement conflicting with this Agreement shall be governed by this Agreement), and (b) except (i) for the right of each Party to pursue damages, subject to the provisions and limitations of Section 10.2, and specific performance, on behalf of its stockholders or members, as applicable, in the event of another Party’s Willful Breach of this Agreement or Fraud (which right is hereby acknowledged and agreed) and (ii) as expressly set forth herein, are not intended to confer upon any Person other than the Parties any rights or remedies. Notwithstanding clause (b) of the immediately preceding sentence, following the Company Effective Time the provisions of Article III are enforceable by the Company Securityholders to the extent necessary to receive the consideration to which such Person is entitled pursuant to Article III.
Section 11.9.Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void, unenforceable or against its regulatory policy, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated so long as the economic and legal substance of the Transactions, taken as a whole, are not affected in a manner materially adverse to any Party.
Section 11.10.Specific Performance. The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur if any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with the terms hereof (and, more specifically, that irreparable damage would likewise occur if the Mergers were not consummated and the affected Party’s stockholders or members did not receive the nCino Merger Consideration or Closing Merger Consideration and other amounts, as applicable, payable to them in accordance with the terms but subject to the conditions of this Agreement), and, accordingly, that the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement or to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions hereof (including the obligation of nCino, Parent and the Merger Subs to consummate the Mergers, the obligation of the Company to consummate the Company Merger and the obligation of nCino, Parent and the Merger Subs to pay, and the affected Party’s stockholders’ or members’ right to receive, the nCino Merger Consideration or Closing Merger Consideration or other amounts, as applicable, payable to them pursuant to the Mergers, subject in each case to the terms and conditions of this Agreement) in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or any court of the United States located in the State of Delaware, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.
Section 11.11.Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any of the Parties (whether by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other Parties, except that each of the Merger Subs may assign, in its sole discretion, any or all of its rights, interests and obligations hereunder to any entity that is wholly owned, directly or indirectly, by nCino; provided, that, no such assignment shall be permitted hereunder if such assignment would reasonably be expected to (i) materially prevent or delay the consummation of the Transactions or (ii) result in any of the conditions to the Mergers (other than the Upstream Mergers, if applicable) set forth in Article IX not being satisfied. This Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Parties and their respective successors and assigns.

Section 11.12.Headings; Interpretation. The descriptive headings used herein are inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to be part of or to affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. “Include,” “includes,” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by “without limitation” whether or not they are in fact followed by such words or words of like import. The words “hereof,” “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement. References to “this Agreement” shall include the Company Disclosure Schedule, the Blocker Disclosure Schedule and the nCino Disclosure Schedule. The word “will” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word “shall.” The words “made available,” “delivered” or “provided” or terms of similar import, when used in the representations (including any attendant definitions) shall mean, in the case of nCino as the recipient, made available to nCino and its Representatives for at least one (1) Business Day prior to the date of this Agreement and through the date of this Agreement in the Firmex Data Site under the title “SimpleNexus” and, in the case of the Company as the recipient, made available or delivered to the Company or its Representatives prior to the date hereof by electronic mail or made publicly available in any nCino SEC Documents. All terms defined in this Agreement shall have the defined meanings when used in any certificate or other document made or delivered pursuant hereto unless otherwise defined therein. All Exhibits and Schedules annexed hereto or referred to herein, and the Company Disclosure Schedule, the Blocker Disclosure Schedule and the nCino Disclosure Schedule, are hereby incorporated in and made a part of this Agreement as if set forth in full herein; provided, however, that the fact that any item of information is disclosed in either the Company Disclosure Schedule, the Blocker Disclosure Schedule or the nCino Disclosure Schedule to this Agreement shall not be construed to mean that such information is required to be disclosed by this Agreement. Each of the Company Disclosure Schedule, the Blocker Disclosure Schedule and the nCino Disclosure Schedule shall be arranged for purposes of convenience in separate parts corresponding to the numbered and lettered Sections and sub-Sections contained in this Agreement, and the information disclosed in any numbered or lettered part shall be deemed to relate to and to qualify only the particular representation or warranty of the respective Party set forth in the corresponding numbered or lettered Section or sub-Section of this Agreement, except to the extent that (a) such information is explicitly cross-referenced in another part of the Company Disclosure Schedule, Blocker Disclosure Schedule or nCino Disclosure Schedule, or (b) it is reasonably apparent on the face of the disclosure that such information qualifies another representation and warranty in this Agreement, in which case such information shall be deemed to be disclosed against such other representation and warranty. Any item of information, matter or document disclosed or referenced in, or attached to, the Company Disclosure Schedule, the Blocker Disclosure Schedule or the nCino Disclosure Schedule shall not (a) be used as a basis for interpreting the terms “ material”, “Company Material Adverse Effect”, “nCino Material Adverse Effect” or other similar terms in this Agreement or to establish a standard of materiality, (b) represent a determination that such item or matter did not arise in the ordinary course of business, (c) be deemed or interpreted to expand the scope of the applicable party’s respective representations and warranties, obligations, covenants, conditions or agreements contained herein, (d) constitute, or be deemed to constitute, an admission of liability or obligation to any third party regarding such matter, or (e) constitute, or be deemed to constitute, an admission to any third party concerning such item or matter. No reference in the Company Disclosure Schedule, the Blocker Disclosure Schedule or the nCino Disclosure Schedule to any Contract shall be construed as an admission or indication to any third party that such Contract is enforceable or currently in effect or that there are any obligations remaining to be performed or any rights that may be exercised under such Contract. No disclosure in the Company Disclosure Schedule, the Blocker Disclosure Schedule or the nCino Disclosure Schedule relating to any possible breach or violation of any agreement or Law shall be construed as an admission or indication to any third party that any such breach or violation exists or has actually occurred. The definitions contained in this Agreement are applicable to the singular as well as the plural forms of such terms and to the masculine as well as to the feminine and neuter genders of such term. Any Contract, instrument
96


or Law defined or referred to herein means such Contract, instrument or Law as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented, including (in the case of Contracts or instruments) by waiver or consent and (in the case of Laws) by succession of comparable successor Laws and references to all attachments thereto and instruments incorporated therein. References to a Person are also to its permitted successors and assigns. This Agreement is the product of negotiations by the Parties having the assistance of counsel and other advisers. It is the intention of the Parties that this Agreement not be construed more strictly with regard to one party than with regard to the others. When calculating the period of time before which, within which or following which, any act is to be done or step taken under this Agreement, the date that is the reference date in calculating such period will be excluded. If the last day of such period is a non-Business Day, the period in question will end on the next succeeding Business Day.
Section 11.13.Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of law thereof or of any other jurisdiction.
Section 11.14.Enforcement; Exclusive Jurisdiction. 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 were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or any court of the United States located in the State of Delaware without proof of actual damages or otherwise (and each party hereby waives any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy), this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. In addition, each of the Parties (a) consents to submit itself, and hereby submits itself, to the personal jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware and any court of the United States located in the State of Delaware, in the event any dispute arises out of this Agreement or any of the Transactions, (b) 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 agrees not to plead or claim any objection to the laying of venue in any such court or that any judicial proceeding in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum, (c) agrees that it will not bring any action relating to this Agreement or any of the Transactions in any court other than the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or, if under applicable Law exclusive jurisdiction is vested in the Federal courts, any court of the United States located in the State of Delaware and (d) consents to service of process being made through the notice procedures set forth in Section 11.6.
Section 11.15.WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO (ON BEHALF OF ITSELF AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES) HEREBY KNOWINGLY, INTENTIONALLY, VOLUNTARILY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
Section 11.16.Joint Obligations. Any covenant, agreement or obligation of nCino hereunder shall be deemed to be and shall constitute a covenant, agreement and obligation of and by Parent to cause nCino and the Merger Subs to perform and discharge such covenant, agreement or obligation. Any covenant, agreement or obligation of Parent or the Merger Subs hereunder shall be deemed to be and shall constitute a covenant, agreement and obligation of and by nCino to cause Parent and the Merger Subs to perform and discharge such covenant, agreement or obligation. nCino and Parent shall be jointly and severally liable for the failure by either of them, or either of the Merger Subs, to perform and discharge any of their respective covenants, agreements or obligations hereunder. Any covenant, agreement or obligation of a
97


Subsidiary of nCino or the Company hereunder shall constitute a covenant, agreement or obligation of nCino or the Company, as appropriate, to cause such Subsidiary to take action. The action, or failure to act, of Parent and each Merger Sub in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and any breach by Parent and the Merger Subs of their agreements, representations and warranties in this Agreement shall in each case be deemed to, for the purpose of interpretation of this Agreement, constitute the action, failure to act and breach, as applicable, of nCino.
