Sanberg or any of its or his respective Affiliates under common control or over which it or he or any of its or his respective Affiliates under common control have voting control to be voted with respect to any action, proposal or matter to be voted on by the stockholders of the Company (including through action by written consent), in proportion to and accordance with the vote of all stockholders of the Company; provided that this Section 9(a) will only apply to voting securities beneficially owned by the Purchaser, together with its Affiliates, in excess of 19.9% of the total voting power of the outstanding capital stock of the Company.

(b)            With respect to any matter that the Purchaser, Joseph N. Sanberg, and/or its or his respective Affiliates under common control are required to vote on in accordance with Section 9(a), the Purchaser shall (and shall cause Joseph N. Sanberg and any of its or his respective Affiliates under common control to) (i) cause each voting security owned by it or over which it has voting control to be voted at all meetings of stockholders of the Company, either by completing the proxy forms distributed by the Company or by having a designated proxy present at the meeting, (ii) deliver the completed proxy form to the Company no later than three (3) Business Days prior to the date of such meeting, and (iii) take such further action or execute such other instruments as may be reasonably necessary to effectuate the intent of this Section 9.

Sanberg and each of its or his Affiliates under common control to be, present in person or represented by proxy at all meetings of stockholders to the extent necessary so that all voting securities of the Company as to which it is entitled to vote shall be counted as present for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum at such meeting.

(d)            During the Standstill Period, the Purchaser hereby agrees that neither the Purchaser nor any of its Affiliates under common control will directly or indirectly: (i) effect, offer or publicly propose to effect, or cause or participate in or in any way knowingly advise, assist or encourage any other person to effect, offer or publicly propose to effect or participate in, (A) any acquisition in excess of five percent (5%) of the issued and outstanding Class A Common Stock (or beneficial ownership thereof) of the Company, or any rights to acquire any such securities (including derivative securities representing the right to vote or economic benefit of any such securities) (but disregarding any securities acquired by the Purchaser under this Agreement); (B) any tender or exchange offer, merger or other business combination involving the Company; (C) any liquidation or dissolution with respect to the Company; or (D) any “solicitation” of “proxies” (as such terms are used in the proxy rules of the Commission) or consents to vote any voting securities of the Company (other than in accordance with Section 9 hereof); (ii) form, join or in any way participate in a “group” (as defined under the Exchange Act) with respect to any securities of the Company; (iii) otherwise act, alone or in concert with others, to seek to control the management, Board or policies of the Company, provided that the Purchaser is not precluded from engaging in direct, non-public conversations with the Board or management of the Company; (iv) take any action which would be reasonably expected to force the Company to make a public announcement regarding any of the types of matters set forth in (i) above; or (v) enter into any discussions or arrangements with any third party with respect to any of the foregoing.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 9(d) shall be construed to (i) prevent the Purchaser from purchasing PIPE Shares pursuant to this Agreement, (ii) exercising any warrants acquired by the Purchaser pursuant to the Prior Purchase Agreements, (iii) subject to Section 9(a), voting in favor of any stockholder proposal, (iv) tendering any securities or receiving any consideration in connection with a bona fide tender offer, merger, consolidation, business combination, stock purchase or other similar transaction or series of related transactions that does not otherwise involve the Purchaser, (v) subject to Section 9(a), announcing how Purchaser intends to vote on any matter presented for a vote by the Company’s stockholders at an annual or special meeting of the Company, provided such announcement does not include any non-public, confidential or competitively sensitive information of the Company or (vi) making any private proposals to the Board or management of the Company or privately requesting any amendments of waivers to this Section 9(d) to the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company acknowledges and agrees that the Purchaser’s purchase of the PIPE Shares pursuant to this Agreement shall not be deemed an acquisition of Class A Common Stock for purposes of Section 9(d) of the Prior Purchase Agreements.

Section 10. Termination.

(a)            This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Subsequent Closing Date:

(i)            By the Purchaser by written notice to the Company, if there is a material breach of this Agreement by the Company that is not cured by thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice by the Company (provided that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 10(a)(i) shall not be available to the Purchaser if it has failed to perform in any material respect any of its obligations under this Agreement or is in breach of any representation or warranty such that the condition set forth in Section 7(b)(ii)(1) or Section 7(b)(ii)(2) would not be satisfied (assuming that the date of such determination is the Subsequent Closing Date)); or

(ii)            By the Company by written notice to the Purchaser, if there is a material breach of this Agreement by the Purchaser that is not cured by thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice by the Purchaser (provided that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 10(a)(ii) shall not be available to the Company if it has failed to perform in any material respect any of its obligations under this Agreement or is in breach of any representation or warranty such that the condition set forth in Section 7(b)(i)(1) or Section 7(b)(i)(3) would not be satisfied (assuming that the date of such determination is the Subsequent Closing Date)).

(b)            This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Subsequent Closing Date, by the mutual written consent of the Company and the Purchaser.

(c)            If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section 10, this Agreement (other than Sections 11 through 22, which shall remain in full force and effect) shall forthwith become wholly void and of no further force and effect. Nothing herein shall relieve any party from liability for Fraud or willful breach of this Agreement.

Section 11. Indemnification.

(a)            The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser and its respective directors, officers, members, employees, agents, Affiliates and Representatives (all such Persons being hereinafter referred to, collectively, as the “Purchaser Indemnified Persons”), against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (“Indemnified Losses”), joint or several, to which any of the Purchaser Indemnified Persons may become subject as a direct result of any (x) breach or inaccuracy by the Company of any of its representations or warranties contained herein or (y) breach or failure to comply with any of its covenants or agreements contained herein; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to any Purchaser Indemnified Person to the extent that any such Indemnified Losses arise out of or are based upon (i) (x) any breach or inaccuracy of the Purchaser’s representations or warranties contained herein or (y) any breach or failure to comply with any of the Purchaser’s covenants or agreements contained herein or (ii) any violations by the Purchaser Indemnified Person of state or federal securities laws or any other conduct by the Purchaser Indemnified Person which constitutes gross negligence, willful misconduct, or Fraud.

(b)            The Purchaser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers, members, employees, agents, Affiliates and Representatives (all such Persons being hereinafter referred to, collectively, as the “Company Indemnified Persons,” and together with the Purchaser Indemnified Persons, the “Indemnified Persons”) against any Indemnified Losses to which any of the Company Indemnified Persons may become subject as a direct result of any (x) breach or inaccuracy by the Purchaser of any of its representations or warranties contained herein or (y) breach or failure to comply with any of its covenants or agreements contained herein; provided, however, that the Purchaser shall not be liable in any such case to any Company Indemnified Person to the extent that any such Indemnified Losses arise out of or are based upon (i) (x) any breach or inaccuracy of the Company’s representations or warranties contained herein or (y) any breach or failure to comply with any of the Company’s covenants or agreements contained herein or (ii) any violations by such Company Indemnified Person of state or federal securities laws or any other conduct by such Company Indemnified Person which constitutes gross negligence, willful misconduct, or Fraud.

(c)            Any Indemnified Person entitled to indemnification hereunder will (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give such notice shall not limit the rights of such Indemnified Person, except to the extent the indemnifying party is actually and materially prejudiced thereby) and (ii) unless in such Indemnified Person’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such Indemnified Person and the indemnifying party may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; provided, however, that any Indemnified Person shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of such claim, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person unless (A) the indemnifying party has agreed to pay such fees or expenses or (B) the indemnifying party shall have failed to assume the defense of such claim and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person. If such defense is not assumed by the indemnifying party as permitted hereunder, the indemnifying party will not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the Indemnified Person without the indemnifying party’s consent (but such consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If such defense is assumed by the indemnifying party pursuant to the provisions hereof, such indemnifying party shall not settle or otherwise compromise the applicable claim unless (i) such settlement or compromise contains a full and unconditional release of the Indemnified Person or (ii) the Indemnified Person otherwise consents in writing, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim will not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any Indemnified Person, a conflict of interest may exist between such Indemnified Person and any other of such Indemnified Persons with respect to such claim, in which event the indemnifying party shall be obligated to pay the reasonable fees and disbursements of such additional counsel or counsels.

(d)            Absent Fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence by the party against whom a remedy is sought, from and after the date hereof, the sole and exclusive remedies with respect to any and all claims relating to the subject matter of this Agreement shall be (i) monetary damages in accordance with this Section 11, (ii) the remedies set forth in Section 20, and (iii) under the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement.

(e)            Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the liability for indemnification of any indemnifying party under this Agreement shall not include punitive or exemplary damages except to the extent actually awarded pursuant to a third-party claim.

Section 12. Survival. The representations and warranties of the Company and the Purchaser contained in this Agreement shall survive the Initial Closing and the Subsequent Closing, as applicable, until the date that is twelve (12) months after the Subsequent Closing. All agreements and covenants in this Agreement to be performed prior to the Subsequent Closing shall survive the Subsequent Closing until the date that is twelve (12) months after the Subsequent Closing; each other agreement and covenant shall survive the Subsequent Closing until the earlier of its fulfilment and the expiration of the statute of limitations applicable thereto (except to the extent expressly provided in this Agreement).
