Immediately prior to the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any further action on the part of the Company or any other Person, each Company Option granted pursuant to the Company Equity Plan that is not vested prior to, and does not becomes vested in connection with, the Closing, will be cancelled for no consideration, and each former holder of any such cancelled Company Option will have no further rights or entitlements with respect to any such cancelled Company Option.

Closing Merger Consideration (determined before giving effect to the adjustments provided for in Section 3.4), minus (ii) the product of (A) the number of Dissenting Shares and (B) the per share portion of the Closing Merger Consideration that each Pre-Closing Holder is entitled to receive, minus (iii) the Escrow Amount, minus (iv) the Closing Option Consideration; provided, that Buyer will promptly thereafter pay to the Exchange Agent any amounts by which the Funding Amount increases due to any Dissenting Shares becoming Shares in accordance with Section 3.8.
(b) After the Effective Time, each Pre-Closing Holder of an outstanding certificate or certificates for shares of Company Capital Stock (collectively, the “Certificates”), upon surrender of such Certificates and a duly completed and validly executed letter of transmittal in a form reasonably acceptable to Buyer (“Letter of Transmittal”) to the Exchange Agent, shall be entitled to receive from the Exchange Agent in exchange therefor (subject to the provisions of Section 3.4) such portion of the Final Merger Consideration into which such holder’s Shares shall have been converted as a result of the Merger; provided, however, that a portion of the Closing Merger Consideration equal to the Escrow Amount otherwise payable to each Pre-Closing Holder, in the amounts set forth on the Payment Spreadsheet, shall be held in escrow in accordance with the Escrow Agreement. Pending such surrender and exchange of a Pre-Closing Holder’s Certificate(s) a holder’s Certificate(s) shall be deemed for all purposes to evidence such holder’s right to receive the portion of the Final Merger Consideration into which such Shares shall have been converted as a result of the Merger.
(c) As soon as reasonably practicable following the Effective Time, but in no event later than one (1) Business Day after the Effective Time, Buyer shall deliver to the Surviving Corporation the Closing Option Consideration less the aggregate amount set forth on the Payment Spreadsheet that each holder of Company Options will be deemed to have deposited with the Escrow Agent as part of the Escrow Funds, and on or within ten (10) days following the Closing Date the Surviving Corporation shall pay to each former holder of Company Options through its payroll system (and subject to applicable Tax withholding) the Closing Option Consideration, if any, to be paid to such former holder of Company Options pursuant to Section 3.1(f) hereof and as set forth on the Payment Spreadsheet. No interest will be paid or accrued upon any Option Consideration.
(d) At the Effective Time, Buyer (i) shall pay a portion of the Closing Merger Consideration equal to the Escrow Amount to Citibank, N.A., as escrow agent of the parties hereto (the “Escrow Agent”), to be held in escrow in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement.

Not less than four (4) Business Days prior to the Closing Date and in no event more than ten (10) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to Buyer a written statement (the “Pre-Closing Working Capital Statement”) setting forth (a) its good faith estimate as of immediately prior to the Effective Time of (i) Closing Date Net Working Capital (“Estimated Closing Date Net Working Capital”), (ii) Closing Date Funded Debt (“Estimated Closing Date
28

Funded Debt”), (iii) Closing Date Cash (“Estimated Closing Date Cash”) and (iv) Closing Date Transaction Expenses (“Estimated Closing Date Transaction Expenses”), and (b) the Company’s calculation of the Estimated Net Working Capital Adjustment Amount and Closing Merger Consideration. The Company shall prepare the Pre-Closing Working Capital Statement using the same accounting principles, procedures and policies, with consistent classifications, inclusions, exclusions and valuation and estimation methodologies that were employed in the preparation of the Sample Working Capital Statement (the “Accounting Principles”). The Company shall give Buyer a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the Pre-Closing Working Capital Statement.
Section 3.4 Adjustment Amount.
(a) On or before the ninetieth (90th) day following the Closing Date, Buyer may prepare and deliver to the Stockholder Representative (i) a calculation of Net Working Capital (“Closing Date Net Working Capital”), (ii) a calculation of the aggregate amount of all Funded Debt of the Company (“Closing Date Funded Debt”), (iii) a calculation of Cash of the Company (“Closing Date Cash”) and (iv) a calculation of Transaction Expenses of the Company (“Closing Date Transaction Expenses”), in each case, calculated as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Closing Working Capital Statement”). In the event that the Buyer does not provide the foregoing within such ninety (90)-day period, the Buyer shall be deemed to have agreed to the Closing Working Capital Statement and the calculations of Closing Date Net Working Capital, Closing Date Funded Debt, Closing Date Cash and Closing Date Transaction Expenses delivered by the Company, which shall be final, binding and conclusive for all purposes hereunder.
(b) If the Stockholder Representative shall disagree with such calculations of Closing Date Net Working Capital, Closing Date Cash, Closing Date Funded Debt, or Closing Date Transaction Expenses, it shall notify Buyer of such disagreement in writing, setting forth in reasonable detail the particulars of such disagreement, within thirty (30) days after its receipt of the Closing Working Capital Statement. In the event that the Stockholder Representative does not provide a notice of disagreement within such thirty (30)-day period, the Stockholder Representative and Buyer shall be deemed to have agreed to the Closing Working Capital Statement and the calculations of Closing Date Net Working Capital, Closing Date Funded Debt, Closing Date Cash and Closing Date Transaction Expenses delivered by Buyer, which shall be final, binding and conclusive for all purposes hereunder. In the event any notice of disagreement is timely provided, Buyer and the Stockholder Representative shall use reasonable best efforts for a period of fifteen (15) days (or such longer period as they may mutually agree) to resolve any disagreements with respect to the calculations of Closing Date Net Working Capital, Closing Date Funded Debt, Closing Date Cash or Closing Date Transaction Expenses. If, at the end of such period, they are unable to resolve such disagreements, then any such remaining disagreements shall be resolved by KPMG LLP or such other independent accounting or financial consulting firm of recognized national standing as may be mutually selected by Buyer and the Stockholder Representative (such firm, the “Independent Auditor”). Each of Buyer and the Stockholder Representative shall promptly provide their respective assertions regarding Closing Date Net Working Capital, Closing Date Funded Debt, Closing Date Cash and Closing
29

Date Transaction Expenses in writing to the Independent Auditor and to each other. The Independent Auditor shall be instructed to render its determination with respect to such disagreements as soon as reasonably possible (which the parties hereto agree should not be later than thirty (30) days following the day on which the disagreement is referred to the Independent Auditor). The Independent Auditor shall base its determination solely on (i) the written submissions of the parties and shall not conduct an independent investigation and (ii) the extent (if any) to which Closing Date Net Working Capital, Closing Date Funded Debt, Closing Date Cash or Closing Date Transaction Expenses require adjustment (only with respect to the remaining disagreements submitted to the Independent Auditor) in order to be determined in accordance with Section 3.4(a) (including the definitions of the defined terms used in Section 3.4(a)). In resolving any disputed item, the Independent Auditor may not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by either party or less than the smallest value for such item claimed by either party. The determination of the Independent Auditor shall be final, conclusive and binding on the parties. The date on which Closing Date Net Working Capital, Closing Date Funded Debt, Closing Date Cash and Closing Date Transaction Expenses are finally determined in accordance with this Section 3.4(b) is hereinafter referred to as the “Determination Date.” All fees and expenses of the Independent Auditor relating to the work, if any, to be performed by the Independent Auditor hereunder shall be borne pro rata as between Buyer, on the one hand, and the Stockholder Representative as a Stockholder Representative Expense, on the other hand, in proportion to the allocation of the dollar value of the amounts in dispute as between Buyer and the Stockholder Representative (set forth in the written submissions to the Independent Auditor) made by the Independent Auditor such that the party prevailing on the greater dollar value of such disputes pays the lesser proportion of the fees and expenses. For example, if the Stockholder Representative challenges items underlying the calculations of Closing Date Net Working Capital, Closing Date Funded Debt, Closing Date Cash and Closing Date Transaction Expenses in the net amount of one million U.S. Dollars ($1,000,000), and the Independent Auditor determines that Buyer has a valid claim for four hundred thousand U.S. Dollars ($400,000) of the one million U.S. Dollars ($1,000,000), Buyer shall bear sixty percent (60%) of the fees and expenses of the Independent Auditor and the Stockholder Representative shall bear the remaining forty percent (40%) of the fees and expenses of the Independent Auditor as a Stockholder Representative Expense.
(c) The “Adjustment Amount,” which may be positive or negative, shall mean (i) Closing Date Net Working Capital (as finally determined in accordance with Section 3.4(b)), minus Estimated Closing Date Net Working Capital, plus (ii) Estimated Closing Date Funded Debt, minus Closing Date Funded Debt (as finally determined in accordance with Section 3.4(b)), plus (iii) Closing Date Cash (as finally determined in accordance with Section 3.4(b)), minus Estimated Closing Date Cash plus (iv) Estimated Closing Date Transaction Expenses, minus Closing Date Transaction Expenses (as finally determined in accordance with Section 3.4(b)). The Adjustment Amount shall be paid in accordance with Section 3.4(b).
(d) If (i) the Adjustment Amount is a positive number, then, within five (5) Business Days of the Determination Date, Buyer shall pay to the Exchange Agent for distribution to each Pre-Closing Holder (provided, that amounts payable in respect of Company Options shall be paid to the Surviving Corporation for payment through its payroll system) an amount in cash equal to
30

(A) such holder’s Pro-Rata Percentage, multiplied by (B) the Adjustment Amount, less any applicable withholding, and (ii) the Adjustment Amount is a negative number (the absolute value of such amount, the “Deficit Amount”), then within five (5) Business Days of the Determination Date, the Escrow Agent shall pay, from the Adjustment Escrow Funds, to Buyer an amount equal to the Deficit Amount; provided, that if the Adjustment Amount as finally determined pursuant to Section 3.4(b) and Section 3.4(c) is less than the Adjustment Escrow Funds, each of Buyer and the Stockholder Representative shall execute joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to disburse any such excess amount to the Exchange Agent to be paid to the Pre-Closing Holders as Final Merger Consideration in accordance with each Pre-Closing Holder’s Pro-Rata Percentage. Upon determination of the Adjustment Amount pursuant to Section 3.4(b) and Section 3.4(c), each of Buyer and the Stockholder Representative shall execute joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to disburse the Adjustment Escrow Funds in accordance with this Section 3.4(d).
(e) Any payments made to any party pursuant to Section 3.4 shall constitute an adjustment of the Closing Merger Consideration for Tax purposes and shall be treated as such by Buyer and the Company on their Tax Returns to the greatest extent permitted by Law.
Section 3.5 Stockholder Representative Expense Fund. On the Closing Date, Buyer shall pay an amount equal to three million U.S. dollars ($3,000,000) (the “Stockholder Representative Expense Fund”) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by the Stockholder Representative, to be used: (i) for the purpose of paying the fees, losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs, judgments, fines or amounts paid in settlement and expenses (including fees, disbursements and costs of counsel and other skilled professionals and in connection with seeking recovery from insurers) incurred, or that may in the future be incurred, by the Stockholder Representative on behalf of the Company and the PreClosing Holders in connection with the execution of this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement, the Stockholder Representative Engagement Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or otherwise in its capacity as the Stockholder Representative (the “Stockholder Representative Expenses”), or (ii) as otherwise determined by the Advisory Group. The Stockholder Representative is not providing any investment supervision, recommendations or advice and shall have no responsibility or liability for any loss of principal of the Stockholder Representative Expense Fund other than as a result of its gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Stockholder Representative is not acting as a withholding agent or in any similar capacity in connection with the Stockholder Representative Expense Fund and has no tax reporting or income distribution obligations. The Pre-Closing Holders will not receive any interest on the Stockholder Representative Expense Fund and assign to the Stockholder Representative any such interest. Subject to Advisory Group approval, the Stockholder Representative may contribute funds to the Stockholder Representative Expense Fund from any consideration otherwise distributable to the Pre-Closing Holders. For U.S. federal income and other applicable Tax purposes, the Stockholder Representative Expense Fund shall be treated as having been received by the Pre-Closing Holders and voluntarily set aside at the time of the Closing.
Section 3.6 Exchange Agent.
31

(a) With respect to each payment to be paid by Buyer to the Pre-Closing Holders hereunder, promptly following the date that is six (6) months following the date that such payment is made by Buyer to the Exchange Agent, Buyer shall instruct the Exchange Agent to deliver to Buyer all cash, Certificates and other documents in its possession relating to such payments, and the Exchange Agent’s duties shall terminate with respect thereto. Thereafter, each Pre-Closing Holder of a Certificate (other than Certificates representing Dissenting Shares) may surrender such Certificate to Buyer and (subject to applicable abandoned property, escheat and similar Laws) receive in consideration therefor, and Buyer shall promptly pay, the portion of the Final Merger Consideration deliverable in respect thereof as determined in accordance with this Article III without any interest thereon.
(b) The Company and the Stockholder Representative acknowledge and agree that (i) upon payment by Buyer to the Exchange Agent of any amounts required to be paid hereunder to the Exchange Agent for the benefit of the Pre-Closing Holders, Buyer shall have fully satisfied and discharged its obligations to make any such payments hereunder and Buyer, the Surviving Corporation and their respective Affiliates shall have no further liability with respect to such payments, regardless of the manner or timeliness of any subsequent distributions to the Pre-Closing Holders, and (ii) the Company prior to Closing and the Stockholder Representative after Closing shall have full responsibility for allocating any payments required to be paid by Buyer hereunder amongst the Pre-Closing Holders and Buyer and its Affiliates will be indemnified hereunder for any Losses related to any inaccuracy in such allocation.
Section 3.7 Lost Certificate. In the event any Certificate has been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, the Exchange Agent shall issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the Final Merger Consideration deliverable in respect thereof as determined in accordance with this Article III; provided, however, that Buyer may, in its sole discretion, or as required by the Exchange Agent, and as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, require the Person who is the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed certificates to provide an indemnification agreement in a form and substance acceptable to Buyer, against any claim that may be made against Buyer or the Exchange Agent with respect to the certificates alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.
Section 3.8 Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article III, the Dissenting Shares shall not be converted into a right to receive any portion of the Final Merger Consideration and the holders thereof shall be entitled to such rights as are granted by Section 262 of the DGCL. Each holder of Dissenting Shares who becomes entitled to payment for such shares pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL or the CGCL, as applicable, shall receive payment therefor from the Surviving Corporation in accordance with the DGCL or CGCL, as applicable; provided, however, that (i) if any such holder of Dissenting Shares shall have failed to establish such holder’s entitlement to appraisal or dissenters’ rights as provided in Section 262 of the DGCL or the CGCL, or (ii) if any such holder of Dissenting Shares shall have effectively withdrawn such holder’s demand for appraisal of such shares or lost such holder’s right to appraisal and payment for such holder’s shares under Section 262 of the DGCL or the CGCL, such holder shall forfeit the right to appraisal of such shares and each such share shall not
32

constitute a Dissenting Share and shall be treated as if it had been a Common Share or Preferred Share, as applicable, immediately prior to the Effective Time and converted, as of the Effective Time, into a right to receive from the Surviving Corporation the portion of the Final Merger Consideration deliverable in respect thereof as determined in accordance with this Article III, without any interest thereon (and such holder shall be treated as a Pre-Closing Holder). The Company will give Buyer prompt notice of all notices received by the Company pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL or the CGCL and the opportunity to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands. Without the prior written consent of Buyer, the Company shall not voluntarily make any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, any such demand for payment. From and after the Effective Time, no stockholder who has properly exercised and perfected appraisal or dissenters’ rights pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL or the CGCL shall be entitled to vote his or her Shares for any purpose or receive payment of dividends or other distributions with respect to his or her Shares (except dividends and distributions payable to stockholders of record at a date which is prior to the Effective Time). Any communication to be made by the Company to any stockholder with respect to Dissenting Shares shall be submitted to Buyer in advance and shall not be presented to any stockholder prior to the Company receiving Buyer’s prior written consent.
Section 3.9 Withholding. Buyer, the Company, the Surviving Corporation, the Stockholder Representative, the Exchange Agent and the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable or deliverable in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, to any Person such amounts that Buyer, the Company, the Stockholder Representative, the Exchange Agent and the Escrow Agent are required to deduct and withhold with respect to any such deliveries and payments under the Code or any provision of state, local, provincial or foreign Law. Any party otherwise proposing to withhold from a payment to be made pursuant to this Agreement shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide at least ten (10) days’ advance written notice to the party on behalf of which such withholding is to be made, and shall cooperate with any reasonable request by such party to reduce or eliminate the obligation to withhold. To the extent that amounts are withheld, and duly and timely deposited with the appropriate Governmental Authority, by Buyer, the Company, the Surviving Corporation, the Stockholder Representative, the Exchange Agent or the Escrow Agent, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.
Section 3.10 Milestone Payments.
(a) Additional payments in cash (each, a “Milestone Payment”) shall be made by Buyer to the Exchange Agent for distribution as set forth on the Payment Spreadsheet pursuant to this Section 3.10 upon the achievement of the milestones set forth below: [***]
Until the earlier of (i) [***] after the Closing Date and (ii) the payment of all Milestone Payments payable under this Agreement, within thirty (30) days after the end of each calendar year, Buyer shall submit to the Shareholder Representative a written report (each, a “Milestone Report”) certified as accurate by an officer in Buyer’s research and development function describing with respect to each Milestone above, the progress that has been made towards
33

achieving such Milestone, which Milestone Report shall be reasonably detailed to enable the Shareholder Representative to determine on a Milestone-by-Milestone basis, the progress that has been achieved; provided, however, that the first Milestone Report hereunder shall be due on January 31, 2023. At the request of Shareholder Representative, Buyer shall make available to the Shareholder Representative or its designee an individual to answer commercially reasonable questions that the Shareholder Representative may have based on a review of the Milestone Report. All reports, materials and information, including each Milestone Report, provided to the Shareholder Representative under this Section 3.10 shall be subject to a reasonable and customary confidentiality agreement between Buyer and the Shareholder Representative.
For the avoidance of doubt, each of the Milestone Payments shall be payable only once upon the first achievement of the corresponding Milestone, no amounts shall be due for subsequent or repeated achievement of any such Milestone and no more than one Milestone Payment under clauses (iii)-(vi) and (vii)-(x) of this Section 3.10, respectively, shall be paid for each Preclinical Company Milestone Candidate. In accordance with the foregoing, the maximum total Milestone Payments payable by Buyer shall not exceed one billion six hundred million U.S. Dollars ($1,600,000,000). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Buyer may only reduce the Milestone Payments pursuant to Section 11.8 and by the amount of any Transaction Expenses not previously deducted from amounts otherwise paid hereunder or any Transaction Expenses arising as a result of such Milestone Payment, as applicable.

(a) the breach or violation of or inaccuracy in any representation or warranty made by Buyer or Merger Sub on the date of this Agreement or on the Closing Date contained in this Agreement or in any other document executed and delivered by Buyer or Merger Sub in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby (in each case, as such representation or warranty would read if all qualifications as to materiality, including each reference to the words “Material Adverse Effect,” “material” and “materiality” and all similar phrases and words, were deleted therefrom); or

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, an Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 11.2(a) or Section 11.3(a) unless and until the aggregate amount of indemnifiable Losses which may be recovered from the Indemnifying Party under Section 11.2(a) or Section 11.3(a), as the case may be, equals or exceeds four million five hundred thousand U.S. Dollars ($4,500,000) (such amount, the “Deductible”), after which the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the full amount of all Losses and not only those in excess of the Deductible; provided, however, that the foregoing limitations set forth in this Section 11.4(a) shall not apply to (i) breaches of, or inaccuracies in, the Fundamental Representations or (ii) Actions based upon fraud; provided, further, that claims for indemnification pursuant to any other provision of Section 11.2 or Section 11.3 are not subject to the monetary limitations set forth in this Section 11.4.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, recovery from the Escrow Funds shall serve as the sole and exclusive source of indemnification from which the Buyer Indemnified Parties may collect Losses for which they are entitled to indemnification from the Pre-Closing Holders under Section 11.2(a), provided, however, that the foregoing limitations set forth in this Section 11.4(b) shall not apply to (i) breaches of, or inaccuracies in, the Fundamental Representations, (ii) breaches of, or inaccuracies in, the Semi-Fundamental Representations or (C) Actions based upon fraud. Recovery from the Escrow Funds and the right of set-off under Section 11.8 shall serve as the sole and exclusive source of indemnification from which the Buyer Indemnified Parties may collect Losses for which they are entitled to indemnification from the Pre-Closing Holders for breaches of the Semi-Fundamental Representations under Section 11.2(a).
86

(c) For as long as there are funds available in the Escrow Funds to cover the Buyer Indemnified Parties’ indemnifiable Losses, any and all Losses payable by the Pre-Closing Holders as Indemnifying Parties to the Buyer Indemnified Parties with respect to Losses for which they are entitled to indemnification from the Pre-Closing Holders under Section 11.2(a) will be paid in cash first out of the Escrow Funds, and in the event such Losses exceed, or are not paid and satisfied in full from, the Escrow Funds, the Buyer Indemnified Parties shall have the right to satisfy in full such Losses by means of exercising Buyer’s rights of set-off under Section 11.8. Except for with respect to Fundamental Representations, Semi-Fundamental Representations and Actions based upon fraud, in no event shall a Pre-Closing Holder be liable for any Losses in excess of such Pre-Closing Holder’s Pro-Rata Percentage of the Escrow Funds for any Losses arising out of or resulting from Losses for which the Buyer Indemnified Parties are entitled to indemnification from the Pre-Closing Holders under Section 11.2(a).
(d) Except with respect to Actions based upon fraud committed by such Pre-Closing Holder or of which such Pre-Closing Holder had actual knowledge, in no event shall a Pre-Closing Holder be liable for any Losses with respect to Material Claims in excess of the portion of the Final Merger Consideration actually paid to such Pre-Closing Holder.
(e) For purposes of this Agreement, “Material Claims” means Losses arising out of or relating to: (i) any breaches of or inaccuracies in any Fundamental Representations or (ii) any matter for which indemnification may be sought under clauses (b) through (e) of Section 11.2.
(f) The amount of any Losses for which indemnification is provided under this Article XI shall be net of any amounts actually recovered by the Indemnified Party under insurance policies with respect to such Losses (net of the present value of any increase in premiums actually imposed by the applicable insurance carrier as a result of the occurrence of the Loss, the Deductible and all costs and expenses incurred in recovering such insurance proceeds with respect to such Loss).
(g) The right of Buyer to indemnification pursuant to Section 11.2 will not be affected by any investigation conducted or knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired) at any time, whether before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the Closing, with respect to any accuracy of any representation or warranty, or performance of or compliance with any covenant or agreement herein.
(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall any amounts included in the calculation of Closing Date Funded Debt, Closing Date Net Working Capital, or Transaction Expenses be indemnifiable pursuant to this Article XI or Section 8.5 (i.e., no “double counting”).
(i) Except for the representations and warranties contained in Article IV, Buyer and Merger Sub acknowledge and agree that none of the Company or the Subsidiaries or their respective Representatives nor any other Person makes, and Buyer and Merger Sub are not relying on, any other express, implied or statutory representation or warranty with respect to the Company or the Subsidiaries or otherwise, including with respect to any projections, forecasts or other future results or outcomes for the Company and Subsidiaries.
87

Section 11.5 Notice of Loss; Third Party Claims.
(a) A claim for indemnification for any matter not involving a Third Party Claim may be asserted by written notice to the party from whom indemnification is sought.
(b) In the event that any Action shall be instituted or asserted by any third party in respect of which payment may be sought under Section 11.2 or Section 11.3 (regardless of the limitations set forth in Section 11.4) (each, a “Third Party Claim”), the Indemnified Party shall promptly cause written notice of the assertion of any Third Party Claim of which it has knowledge and that may be covered by this indemnity to be forwarded to the Indemnifying Party. The failure of the Indemnified Party to give reasonably prompt notice of any Third Party Claim shall not release, waive or otherwise affect the Indemnifying Party’s obligations with respect thereto except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced as a result of such failure. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, at its sole option and expense, to be represented by counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party and to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Third Party Claim that relates to any Losses indemnified by it hereunder; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party may not assume control of defense to a Third Party Claim (i) involving any criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation, or in which relief other than monetary damages is sought, (ii) involving the alleged misuse, infringement, misappropriation or violation of any Intellectual Property, (iii) involving a purported class action, (iv) if the Indemnifying Party has not notified the Indemnified Party in writing that it will be liable to indemnify the Indemnified Party with respect to all Losses relating to such Third Party Claim subject to the limitations of Section 11.4 or (v) if the Third Party Claim relates to the Company Intellectual Property. In addition, the Indemnifying Party may not maintain the defense of a Third Party Claim if it has failed to defend such Third Party Claim in good faith. If the Indemnifying Party elects to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Third Party Claim that relates to any Losses indemnified by it hereunder, it shall within thirty (30) days (or sooner, if the nature of the Third Party Claim so requires) notify the Indemnified Party of its intent to do so. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Third Party Claim that relates to any Losses indemnified against hereunder, or is not permitted to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim pursuant to the proviso to the third sentence of this Section 11.5(b), the Indemnified Party may defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with such Third Party Claim, subject to the provisions below. If the Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense of any Third Party Claim pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Indemnified Party may participate, at his or its own expense, in the defense of such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that such Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in any such defense with separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party if (A) so requested by the Indemnifying Party to participate, (B) in the reasonable opinion of outside counsel to the Indemnified Party a conflict or potential conflict exists between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party that would make such separate representation advisable, or (C) in the reasonable opinion of outside counsel to the Indemnified Party there are legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party that are different from or additional to those available to Indemnifying Party; and provided, further, that the Indemnifying Party shall not be required to pay for more than one such counsel (plus any appropriate local counsel) for all Indemnified Parties in
88

connection with any Third Party Claim. If after assuming the defense of a Third Party Claim the Indemnifying Party determines that it is not required to provide indemnification therefor, it shall promptly notify the Indemnified Party, cease to control the defense of such Third Party Claim, and shall nonetheless be responsible for all costs of defense incurred by it prior to such notice. The parties hereto agree to reasonably cooperate with each other in connection with the defense, negotiation or settlement of any such Third Party Claim. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 11.5 to the contrary, neither the Indemnifying Party nor the Indemnified Party shall, without the written consent of the other party, settle or compromise any Third Party Claim or permit a default or consent to entry of any Governmental Order unless (1) the claimant provides to such other party an unqualified release of the Indemnified Parties and Indemnifying Parties from all liability in respect of such Third Party Claim, (2) such settlement does not involve any injunctive relief binding upon the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates, (3) such settlement does not encumber any of the material assets of any Indemnified Party or impose any restriction or condition that would apply to or materially affect any Indemnified Party or the conduct of any Indemnified Party’s business and (4) such settlement does not involve any admission of liability or wrongdoing by any Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates.
(c) In the event that the Indemnified Party conducts the defense of a Third Party Claim pursuant to this Section 11.5, the Indemnifying Party will remain responsible for any and all other Losses that the Indemnified Party may incur or suffer resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of or caused by the Third Party Claim to the fullest extent provided in this Article XI.
Section 11.6 Tax Treatment. To the extent permitted by Law, the parties hereto agree to treat all payments made under this Article XI, under Section 8.5, under any other indemnity provision contained in this Agreement, and for any misrepresentations or breach of warranties or covenants, as adjustments to the Final Merger Consideration and the Option Consideration for all Tax purposes.
Section 11.7 Remedies. From and after the Closing, except as specifically provided herein, the sole and exclusive remedy of any Indemnified Party for any breach or failure to be true and correct, or alleged breach or failure to be true and correct, of any representation or warranty in this Agreement, shall be indemnification in accordance with this Article XI. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 11.7 shall not operate to limit the rights of the parties to seek equitable remedies (including specific performance or injunctive relief) or any remedies available to it under applicable Law in the event of (a) a party’s failure to comply with its indemnification obligations hereunder or (b) fraud, willful breach or intentional misrepresentation committed by or on behalf of any party.
Section 11.8 Set-Off. In addition to all other remedies contemplated herein and subject to the limitations set forth in Section 11.4 above, Buyer may set off, deduct or retain any amount due to the Pre-Closing Holders in respect of any bona fide claim for indemnification against any of the Pre-Closing Holders pursuant to this Agreement against any Milestone Payments. In the case of any claim for a breach of Semi-Fundamental Representations, the aggregate amount that Buyer may set-off shall equal one hundred and thirty five million U.S. Dollars ($135,000,000).
89

Section 11.9 No Right of Contribution. No Pre-Closing Holder shall have any right of contribution against the Company or the Surviving Corporation with respect to any breach by the Company of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements.
Section 11.10 No Circular Recovery. Each Pre-Closing Holder hereby agrees that it will not make any claim for indemnification against Buyer, the Surviving Corporation or the Company by reason of the fact that such Pre-Closing Holder was a controlling Person, director, employee or representative of the Company or the Surviving Corporation or was serving as such for another Person at the request of Buyer or the Company (whether such claim is for Losses of any kind or otherwise and whether such claim is pursuant to any statute, organizational document, contractual obligation or otherwise) with respect to any claim brought by an Indemnified Party against any Pre-Closing Holder relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby. With respect to any claim brought by an Indemnified Party against any Pre-Closing Holder relating to this Agreement and any of the transactions contemplated hereby, each Pre-Closing Holder expressly waives any right of subrogation, contribution, advancement, indemnification or other claim against the Company with respect to any amounts owed by such Pre-Closing Holder pursuant to this Article XI.
Section 11.11 Release of Escrow Funds. Subject to the further terms and conditions of the Escrow Agreement and this Article XI, Buyer and the Stockholder Representative shall execute joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to disburse the Escrow Funds in accordance with this Section 11.11:
(a) On the date that is fifteen (15) months after the Closing (the “Escrow Release Date”), the amount remaining in the Escrow Funds minus the aggregate amount determined by Buyer in good faith to be held in reserve to satisfy any pending claims (the “Pending Claim Reserve”) shall be released by the Escrow Agent to the Exchange Agent for distribution to the Pre-Closing Holders (provided, that amounts payable in respect of Company Options shall be paid by to the Surviving Corporation for payment through its payroll system) in accordance with such Pre-Closing Holders’ Pro-Rata Percentage of such amount.
(b) Following the Escrow Release Date, any Pending Claim Reserve shall remain in escrow until the resolution of all applicable claims to which such reserve relates. To the extent that such pending claim or claims are resolved in favor of Buyer, the amount determined to be owing to Buyer shall be paid to Buyer, with the amount of any such reserve remaining in the Escrow Funds after such payment to Buyer, if any, being released by the Escrow Agent to the Exchange Agent for distribution to the Pre-Closing Holders (provided, that amounts payable in respect of Company Options shall be paid by to the Surviving Corporation for payment through its payroll system) in accordance with such Pre-Closing Holders’ Pro-Rata Percentage of such amount.
ARTICLE XII.
STOCKHOLDER REPRESENTATIVE
Section 12.1 Designation and Replacement of Stockholder Representative. The parties hereto have agreed that it is desirable to designate a representative to act on behalf of holders of the Pre-
90

Closing Holders, as the exclusive agent and attorney-in-fact for and on behalf of such Persons as specified herein (the “Stockholder Representative”). By virtue of the approval of the Merger and this Agreement by the Pre-Closing Holders and without any further action of any of the Pre-Closing Holders or the Company, Company has designated Fortis Advisors LLC as the Stockholder Representative, and the receipt of the Requisite Stockholder Approval by the Company Stockholders shall constitute ratification and approval of such designation. The designation of any Person as the Stockholder Representative, and the powers, immunities and rights to indemnification granted to the Stockholder Representative Group hereunder: (i) are and shall be considered a power of attorney coupled with an interest, and, except as set forth in this Article XI, such designation is irrevocable and shall not be affected by the death, incapacity, illness, bankruptcy, dissolution or other inability to act of any of the Pre-Closing Holders, and (ii) shall survive the delivery of an assignment by any Pre-Closing Holder of the whole or any fraction of his, her or its interest in the Escrow Funds or Milestone Payments.
Section 12.2 Authority and Rights of the Stockholder Representative; Limitations on Liability. The Stockholder Representative shall have such powers and authority as are necessary to carry out the functions assigned to it under this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement and the Stockholder Representative Engagement Agreement; provided, however, that the Stockholder Representative shall have no obligation to act on behalf of the Pre-Closing Holders, except as expressly provided herein, in the Escrow Agreement and in the Stockholder Representative Engagement Agreement, and for purposes of clarity, there are no obligations of the Stockholder Representative in any ancillary agreement, schedule, exhibit or the Company Disclosure Schedules. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Stockholder Representative shall have full power, authority and discretion to (a) give and receive notices and communications on behalf of the Pre-Closing Holders, (b) estimate and determine the amounts of Stockholder Representative Expenses and to pay such Stockholder Representative Expenses in accordance with Section 3.5, (c) to resolve on behalf of the Pre-Closing Holders any disputes related to the occurrence of any Milestone or the payment of any Milestone Payment, including to commence litigation in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and to comply with Governmental Orders and awards of any arbitrators related thereto, and to settle any such disputes on behalf of the Pre-Closing Holders, and (d) after the Closing, negotiate and enter into amendments to this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement for and on behalf of the Pre-Closing Holders. All actions taken by the Stockholder Representative under this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement or the Stockholder Representative Engagement Agreement shall be binding upon the Pre-Closing Holders and their successors as if expressly confirmed and ratified in writing by each of them, and all defenses which may be available to any Pre-Closing Holder to contest, negate or disaffirm the action of the Stockholder Representative taken in good faith under this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement or the Stockholder Representative Engagement Agreement are waived. The Stockholder Representative may resign at any time and may be removed or replaced by a majority vote of the Advisory Group. The immunities and rights to indemnification shall survive the resignation or removal of the Stockholder Representative or any member of the Advisory Group and the Closing and/or any termination of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement. Certain Pre-Closing Holders have entered into an engagement agreement (the “Stockholder Representative Engagement Agreement”) with the Stockholder Representative to provide direction to the Stockholder Representative in connection with its services under this Agreement,
91

the Escrow Agreement and the Stockholder Representative Engagement Agreement (such Pre-Closing Holders, including their individual representatives, collectively hereinafter referred to as the “Advisory Group”). Neither the Stockholder Representative nor its members, managers, directors, officers, contractors, agents and employees nor any member of the Advisory Group (collectively, the “Stockholder Representative Group”), shall have any liability to Buyer, the Company or any holder of Common Stock, Preferred Stock or Company Options with respect to actions taken or omitted to be taken in good faith in its capacity as the Stockholder Representative under this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement or the Stockholder Representative Engagement Agreement (except for those arising out of the Stockholder Representative’s gross negligence or willful misconduct). The Pre-Closing Holders acknowledge that the Stockholder Representative shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the exercise or performance of any of its powers, rights, duties or privileges or pursuant to this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement, the Stockholder Representative Engagement Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. The Stockholder Representative shall at all times be entitled to rely on any directions received from the Majority Holders; provided, however, that the Stockholder Representative shall not be required to follow any such direction, and shall be under no obligation to take any action in its capacity as the Stockholder Representative, unless the Stockholder Representative is holding funds delivered to it under Section 3.5 and has been provided with other funds, security or indemnities which, in the sole determination of the Stockholder Representative, are sufficient to protect the Stockholder Representative against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred by the Stockholder Representative in responding to such direction or taking such action. The Stockholder Representative shall be entitled to engage such counsel, experts and other agents and consultants as it shall deem necessary in connection with exercising its powers and performing its function hereunder and (in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Stockholder Representative) shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the opinions and advice of such Persons. The Stockholder Representative shall be entitled to: (i) rely upon the Payment Spreadsheet, (ii) rely upon any signature believed by it to be genuine, and (iii) reasonably assume that a signatory has proper authorization to sign on behalf of the applicable Pre-Closing Holder or other party. The Stockholder Representative shall be entitled to reimbursement for all Stockholder Representative Expenses first, from the Stockholder Representative Expense Fund, second from any distribution of the Escrow Funds or Milestone Payments otherwise distributable to the Pre-Closing Holders at the time of distribution, and third, directly from the Pre-Closing Holders. The Stockholder Representative Group shall be entitled to indemnification and defense by the Pre-Closing Holders and shall be held harmless against any loss, liability or Stockholder Representative Expenses arising out of actions taken or omitted to be taken in good faith in its capacity as the Stockholder Representative under this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement or the Stockholder Representative Engagement Agreement (except for those arising out of the Stockholder Representative’s gross negligence or willful misconduct), including the costs and expenses of investigation and defense of claims. In the event that the Stockholder Representative determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, that the funds paid to the Stockholder Representative pursuant to Section 3.5 exceed the Stockholder Representative Expenses, as soon as reasonably determined by the Stockholder Representative that the Stockholder Representative Expense Fund is no longer required to be withheld, the Stockholder Representative shall transfer such excess amount to the Escrow Agent solely for disbursement (or otherwise cause such excess
92

amount to be disbursed) to the Pre-Closing Holders as Final Merger Consideration in accordance with each Pre-Closing Holder’s Pro-Rata Percentage; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement, in no event shall such excess amount otherwise become payable to Buyer.

Section 13.3 Assignment. No party hereto shall assign this Agreement or any part hereof without the prior written consent of the other parties; provided, that Buyer or Merger Sub may assign this Agreement or any part hereof to an Affiliate thereof without the consent of any other party hereto; provided, that Buyer or Merger Sub, as applicable, shall remain liable for any obligations so assigned. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
Section 13.4 Rights of Third Parties. Nothing expressed or implied in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to confer upon or give any Person, other than the parties hereto, any right or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement.
Section 13.5 Release. In consideration of each Pre-Closing Holder’s right to receive their applicable portion of the Final Merger Consideration, and as a condition and inducement to the Company’s, Buyer’s and Merger Sub’s willingness to enter into this Agreement, effective as of the Closing Date, each Pre-Closing Holder, on behalf of itself, himself or herself and each of its, his or her agents, trustees, beneficiaries, directors, officers, Affiliates, Subsidiaries, estate, successors, assigns, members and partners (each, a “Pre-Closing Holder Releasor”), hereby (a) acknowledges, warrants and agrees that he, she or it has no claims against the Company,
94

Buyer and/or Surviving Corporation and their respective Affiliates, and each of their respective current and former officers, directors, employees, partners, members and advisors (collectively, the “Pre-Closing Holder Releasees”), and (b) irrevocably and unconditionally releases and forever discharges the Pre-Closing Holder Releasees of and from any and all actions, causes of action, suits, proceedings, judgments, debts, dues, claims and demands whatsoever, whether in law or in equity, which the Pre-Closing Holder Releasor may have against each of the Pre-Closing Holder Releasees, now or in the future, in each case, in respect of any cause, matter or thing relating to (i) such Pre-Closing Holder Releasor’s ownership or purported ownership of Pre-Closing Holder Releasor’s Company Capital Stock or other securities of the Company, (ii) the negotiation or execution of this Agreement or any of the other documents referenced in this Agreement or the consummation of the Merger and any transactions contemplated thereby, or (iii) any other matters related to the Company (the “Pre-Closing Holder Released Claims”). Each Pre-Closing Holder Releasor acknowledges, warrants and agrees that he, she or it does not rely, and has not relied, on any representation or statement not set forth in this Agreement made by any representative of the Company or anyone else with regard to the subject matter, basis or effect of this release, and is familiar with Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of California (“Section 1542”), which provides as follows: A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this release shall not cover, and Pre-Closing Holder Released Claims do not include, (A) claims arising from the rights of such Pre-Closing Holder Releasor under this Agreement (including the right to receive any payments due to such Pre-Closing Holder Releasor as contemplated hereunder), (B) if such PreClosing Holder Releasor is an employee of the Company, such Pre-Closing Holder Releasor’s rights, if any, to accrued and unpaid salary or bonus due to such Pre-Closing Holder Releasor through the date hereof, vested employee benefits as of the date hereof, and business expenses incurred prior to the date hereof, (C) any rights of indemnification that a Pre-Closing Holder Releasor may have by reason of his or her status as a director, officer, or fiduciary of the Company, pursuant to the Company Charter, the Company Bylaws, or under applicable Law, subject to this Agreement, or (D) any other rights that cannot by Law be released by private agreement. Each Pre-Closing Holder Releasor hereby waives and relinquishes on behalf of himself, herself or itself, his, her or its heirs, executors, administrators and assigns any rights and benefits that such Pre-Closing Holder Releasor may have under Section 1542 or any similar statute or common law principle of any jurisdiction. Each Pre-Closing Holder Releasor acknowledges that he, she or it may hereafter discover facts in addition to or different from those that Pre-Closing Holder Releasor now knows or believes to be true with respect to the subject matter of this release, but it is Pre-Closing Holder Releasor’s intention to fully and finally and forever settle and release any and all Pre-Closing Holder Released Claims (other than such PreClosing Holder Released Claims expressly reserved and excluded herein) that do now exist, may exist or heretofore have existed with respect to the subject matter of this release. In furtherance of this intention, the releases contained herein shall be and remain in effect as full and complete general releases notwithstanding the discovery or existence of any such additional or different facts. This release is conditioned upon the consummation of the Merger as contemplated in herein and shall become null and void, and shall have no effect whatsoever,
95

without any action on the part of any Person, upon termination of this Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof for any reason.
Section 13.6 Expenses. Each party hereto, other than the Stockholder Representative (whose expenses shall be paid out of funds paid to the Stockholder Representative under Section 3.5), shall bear its own expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby whether or not such transactions shall be consummated, including all fees of its legal counsel, financial advisers and accountants; provided, however, that the fees and expenses of the Independent Auditor, if any, shall be paid in accordance with Section 3.4; provided, further, that the parties hereto shall pay Transfer Taxes in accordance with Section 8.5; provided, further, that Buyer shall pay all fees payable to the Antitrust Authorities in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in accordance with Section 8.6(c); provided, further, that, in the event that the transactions contemplated hereby are not consummated, the Company shall reimburse the Stockholder Representative for all costs and expenses incurred by the Stockholder Representative in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.
Section 13.7 Governing Law. This Agreement, and all claims or causes of action based upon, arising out of, or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to principles or rules of conflict of laws to the extent such principles or rules would require or permit the application of Laws of another jurisdiction.
Section 13.8 Captions; Counterparts. The captions in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not be considered a part of or affect the construction or interpretation of any provision of this Agreement. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Counterparts and any other document required to be executed and delivered hereunder may be delivered via facsimile, electronic mail (including .pdf or any electronic signature complying with the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000 (e.g., www.docusign.com)) or other transmission method and any counterpart or such document so delivered shall be deemed to have been duly and validly delivered and be valid and effective for all purposes.
Section 13.9 Schedules, Exhibits and Annexes. The Disclosure Schedules, Exhibits and Annexes referenced herein are a part of this Agreement as if fully set forth herein. All references herein to the Disclosure Schedules, Exhibits and Annexes shall be deemed references to such parts of this Agreement, unless the context shall otherwise require. Any disclosure made by a party in the Disclosure Schedules with reference to any section or schedule of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a disclosure with respect to all other sections or schedules to which the relevance of such disclosure is reasonably apparent. Certain information set forth in the Disclosure Schedules is included solely for informational purposes and may not be required to be disclosed pursuant to this Agreement. The disclosure of any information shall not be deemed to constitute an acknowledgment that such information is required to be disclosed in connection with the representations and warranties made in this Agreement, nor shall such information be deemed to establish a standard of materiality.
96

Section 13.10 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (together with the Disclosure Schedules, Exhibits and Annexes to this Agreement), the Escrow Agreement, and that certain Non-Disclosure Agreement, dated March 10, 2021, between Buyer and the Company (the “Confidentiality Agreement”) constitute the entire agreement among the parties relating to the transactions contemplated hereby and supersede any other agreements, whether written or oral, that may have been made or entered into by or among any of the parties hereto or any of their respective Subsidiaries relating to the transactions contemplated hereby. No representations, warranties, covenants, understandings or agreements, oral or otherwise, relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement exist between the parties, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement, and the Confidentiality Agreement.
Section 13.11 Amendments. This Agreement may be amended or modified in whole or in part, only by a duly authorized agreement in writing executed in the same manner as this Agreement and which makes reference to this Agreement. The approval of this Agreement by the stockholders of the Company shall not restrict the ability of the Board of Directors of the Company to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 10.1 or to cause the Company to enter into an amendment to this Agreement pursuant to this Section 13.11 to the extent permitted under Section 251(d) of the DGCL.
Section 13.12 Publicity. The Company agrees that, from the date hereof through the Closing Date, no public release or announcement concerning the transactions contemplated hereby shall be issued or made by or on behalf of any party without the prior consent of Buyer, except the Company may make any disclosures or announcements necessary to comply with applicable Law or regulations. Buyer shall prepare, subject to the Company’s review and comment, a joint press release to be issued on or promptly (and in any event within two (2) Business Days) after the date of this Agreement. The Company agrees to keep the terms of this Agreement confidential, except to the extent and to the Persons to whom disclosure is required by applicable Law or securities exchange regulation or for purposes of compliance with financial reporting obligations; provided, that the Company may disclose such terms to its employees, accountants, advisors and other representatives as necessary in connection with the ordinary conduct of businesses (so long as such Persons agree to, or are bound by contract or professional or fiduciary obligations to, keep the terms of this Agreement confidential and so long as the Company shall be responsible to the other parties hereto for breach of this Section 13.12 or such confidentiality obligations by the recipients of its disclosure).
Section 13.13 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, the other provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. The parties further agree that if any provision contained herein is, to any extent, held invalid or unenforceable in any respect under the Laws governing this Agreement, they shall take any actions necessary to render the remaining provisions of this Agreement valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by Law and, to the extent necessary, shall amend or otherwise modify this Agreement to replace any provision contained herein that is held invalid or unenforceable with a valid and enforceable provision giving effect to the intent of the parties.
97

Section 13.14 Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.
(a) Any Action based upon, arising out of or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby may be brought in the Delaware Chancery Court (or, if the Delaware Chancery Court shall be unavailable, any other court of the State of Delaware or, in the case of claims to which the federal courts have exclusive subject matter jurisdiction, any federal court of the United States of America sitting in the State of Delaware), and, in each case, appellate courts therefrom, and each of the parties irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of each such court in any such Action, waives any objection it may now or hereafter have to personal jurisdiction, venue or to convenience of forum, agrees that all claims in respect of such Action shall be heard and determined only in any such court, and agrees not to bring any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in any other court. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to affect the right of any party to serve process in any manner permitted by Law or to commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against any other party in any other jurisdiction, in each case, to enforce judgments obtained in any Action brought pursuant to this Section 13.14(a).
(b) EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY ACTION ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. EACH PARTY HERETO (I) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF ANY ACTION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (II) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVER AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 13.14.
Section 13.15 Enforcement. The parties hereto 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 specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement, without proof of actual damages or otherwise, in addition to any other remedy to which any party is entitled at law or in equity. Each party agrees to waive any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy. The parties further agree not to assert that a remedy of specific enforcement is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to law or inequitable for any reason, nor to assert that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy. To the extent any party hereto brings an Action to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions of this Agreement (other than an Action to enforce specifically any provision that by its terms requires performance after the Closing or expressly survives termination of this Agreement), the Outside Date shall automatically be extended to (a) the twentieth (20th) Business Day following the resolution of such Action or (b) such other time period established by the court presiding over such Action.
98

Section 13.16 Tax Advice. Each party hereto acknowledges and agrees that it has not received and is not relying upon Tax advice from any other party, and that it has and will continue to consult with its own advisors with respect to Taxes.
Section 13.17 Privilege. Buyer and the Company agree that the attorney-client privilege of the Company and its Subsidiaries shall continue to belong to them following the Closing and shall not pass to or be claimed by any Pre-Closing Holder (and any attorney-client privilege of the Pre-Closing Holders shall continue to belong to the Pre-Closing Holders following the Closing and shall not pass to or be claimed by the Company or its Subsidiaries), provided that, as to all communications prior to the Closing among outside legal counsel to the Company (including Gunderson Dettmer Stough Villeneuve Franklin & Hachigian, LLP or Hogan Lovells US LLP) and the Company and the Pre-Closing Holders and their respective Affiliates that relate to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and are subject to the attorney-client privilege and the exception of client confidence, none of Acquirer, the Company or any of their Affiliates shall disclose (nor shall any Pre-Closing Holder or any of its Affiliates be required to disclose) any such communications in any legal proceeding in support of a claim by any of them against the Stockholder Representative, any Pre-Closing Holder any of their Affiliates (unless such communication is no longer subject to attorney-client privilege for reasons other than the actions of Parent, the Company or any of their Affiliates).
