(b)      Treatment of Company Options.
(i) Vested Company Options. No Vested Company Options shall be assumed or continued by Parent or the Company in connection with the Merger or the other transactions contemplated hereby. Each Vested Option outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically convert into the right to receive with respect to each share of Company Common Stock subject thereto, at the Closing, (A) an amount in cash, without interest, equal to (1) the consideration payable for each share of Company Common Stock pursuant to Section 1.7(a), minus (2) an amount in cash equal to the per share exercise price of such Vested Company Option, multiplied by (3) the total number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Vested Company Option immediately prior to its cancellation (such payment to be net of withholdings, if any, and without interest), (B) any cash disbursements required to be made from the Escrow Funds with respect to such Vested Company Option (based on such holder’s Excess Pro Rata Share of the released amount), without interest, in each case in accordance with Section 1.10(c) and/or Section 1.15(f) (and the terms of the Escrow Agreements), as applicable, (C) any cash disbursements required to be made in connection with the Post-Closing Excess Amount (if any) with respect to such Vested Company Option (based on such holder’s Excess Pro Rata Share of the released amount), without interest, in accordance with Section 1.15(e), (D) any cash disbursements required to be made from the Expense Fund Account with respect to such Vested Company Option to the former holder thereof (based on such holder’s Excess Pro Rata Share of the released amount), without interest, in accordance with Section 7.2(c), (E) the Per Share First Anniversary Payment Company Options that are Employee Options shall be made to the holders of Employee Options through Parent’s, the Surviving Corporation’s payroll processing system in accordance with standard payroll practices net of applicable Tax withholding and deductions, and such payment in respect of any Vested Company Options that are Non-Employee Options shall be paid to the Paying Agent for further payment to the holders of such Non-Employee Options; provided that, as a condition to payment of any amount owed to the holders of Non-Employee Options, each such holder of Non-Employee Options must have first delivered to the Paying Agent or Parent, as applicable, a properly completed Exchange Documents. For purposes of calculating the aggregate amount of consideration payable in respect of each Vested Company Option pursuant to this Section 1.7(b)(i), (1) all shares of Company Common Stock issuable upon the exercise in full of the Vested Company Options held by each Company Vested Optionholder shall be aggregated and (2) the amount of cash to be paid to each such Company Vested Optionholder shall be rounded down to the nearest whole cent.








(ii) Unvested Company Options. At the Effective Time, each Unvested Company Option that is outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by a Continuing Employee shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any further action by Parent, Merger Sub, the Company, or the holder of such Unvested Company Option, be assumed by Parent and converted into, or terminated and substituted with, a stock option of Parent that represents the right to acquire a number of validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Parent Common Stock, equal to the product of (A) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Unvested Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, multiplied by (B) the Option Exchange Ratio (each, a “Converted Option”); provided, that any fractional share resulting from such multiplication shall be rounded down to the nearest whole share. Following the Effective Time, each Converted Option shall continue to be governed by the same material terms and conditions, including the vesting schedule, as were applicable immediately prior to the Effective Time to the Unvested Company Option from which it was converted or for which it is a substitute, in all cases subject to restrictions related to the issuance of shares under applicable Law. The per share exercise price of each Converted Option shall be equal to (x) the per share exercise price of the Unvested Company Option from which it was converted or for which it is a substitute, divided by (y) the Option Exchange Ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole cent (the “Converted Option Exercise Price”). It is the intention of the parties that each Converted Option shall qualify following the Effective Time as an incentive stock option (as defined in Section 422 of the Code) to the extent permitted under Section 422 of the Code and to the extent such corresponding Company Option qualified as an incentive stock option prior to the Effective Time, and that the adjustments in this Section 1.7(b)(ii) be performed in a manner that complies with or is exempt from Section 409A of the Code. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide that each Unvested Company Option that is outstanding and unvested immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by a Person who is not a Continuing Employee shall be cancelled and terminated without consideration upon the Effective Time in accordance with the applicable Company Equity Plan.
(iii)  Prior to the Effective Time, and subject to the prior review of Parent, the Company shall take all actions necessary to effect the transactions anticipated by this Section 1.7 under the applicable Company Equity Plan and any Contract applicable to any Company Option (whether written or oral, formal or informal), including delivering all required notices, obtaining all necessary approvals and consents. Without limiting the foregoing, the Company shall take all actions necessary to ensure that the Company will not at the Effective Time be bound by any options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock units, or other rights or agreements which would entitle any Person, other than Parent and its Subsidiaries, to own any capital stock of the Surviving Corporation or to receive any payment in respect thereof.
(iv) To the extent Parent assumes and converts a Company Option under the Company Equity Plan, as assumed, pursuant to Section 1.7(b)(ii), at or prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall take all actions reasonably necessary to reserve for issuance a sufficient number of shares of Parent Common Stock for delivery upon exercise of the Converted Options. To the extent Parent assumes and converts a Company Option under the Company Equity Plan, as assumed, pursuant to Section 1.7(b)(ii), with respect to the Converted Options, Parent shall file with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-8 (or any successor form), relating to the Parent Common Stock issuable pursuant to the exercise of Converted Options by the Registration Deadline..
(c)Treatment of Company Warrants. The Company Warrants shall not be assumed or continued by Parent or the Company in connection with the Merger or the other transactions contemplated hereby. Immediately prior to the Effective Time, the Company Warrants (other than the [***]) shall automatically convert into the right to receive with respect to each share of Company Capital Stock subject thereto, (i) at the Closing, subject to Section 1.9, the product of (x)(A) the consideration payable for each share of Company Capital Stock pursuant to Section 1.7(a), minus (B) an amount in cash equal to the per share exercise price of such Company Warrants, multiplied by (y) the total number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Warrants (assuming conversion of any Preferred Stock that may be 








purchasable pursuant to such Warrant) immediately prior to its cancellation (such payment to be net of withholdings, if any, and without interest) (ii) any cash disbursements required to be made from the Escrow Funds with respect to such Company Warrant (other than the [***] Warrants) to such Company Warrantholder thereof (which shall exclude holders of warrants) (based on such Company Warrantholder’s Excess Pro Rata Share of the released amount), without interest, in each case in accordance with Section 1.10(d) and/or Section 1.15(f) (and the terms of the Escrow Agreements), as applicable, (iii) any cash disbursements required to be made in connection with the Post-Closing Excess Amount (if any) with respect to such Company Warrant (other than [***] Warrants) to such Company Warrantholder (which shall exclude holders of [***] Warrants) (based on such Company Warrantholder’s Excess Pro Rata Share of the released amount), without interest, in accordance with Section 1.15(e), (iv) any cash disbursements required to be made from the Expense Fund Account with respect to such Company Warrant (other than [***] Warrant (which shall exclude holders of [***] Warrants) to such Company Warrants) (based on such Company Warrantholder’s Excess Pro Rata Share of the released amount), without interest, in accordance with Section 7.2(c), (v) the Per Share First Anniversary Payment Amount and (vi) the Per Share Second Anniversary Payment Amount. For the avoidance of doubt, payment to the holders of [***] Warrants shall be governed by Section 5.19 hereof.
(d)Effect on Capital Stock of Merger Sub. At the Effective Time, each share of common stock of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and exchanged for one validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Surviving Corporation.
(e)Treasury Stock and Parent Owned Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger, each share of Company Capital Stock held by the Company or Parent (or any direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary of the Company or Parent) immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled and extinguished without any conversion thereof or the right to receive any consideration therefor (such shares, the “Cancelled Shares”).
1.8      Payments.
(a) Immediately prior to the filing of the Certificate of Merger, Parent shall transfer, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Paying Agent in accordance with this Article I, the Total Closing Merger Consideration payable at the Closing to (i) the Company Stockholders pursuant to Section 1.7(a), (ii) the Company Vested Optionholders that are Non-Employee Options pursuant to Section 1.7(b)(i) and (iii) the Company Warrantholders (other than the holders of [***] Warrants) pursuant to


Section 1.7(c), excluding, in each case, the portion of the Escrow Funds and Expense Fund applicable to such payments.

The proceeds in the Adjustment Escrow Fund shall be distributed to the Company Sellers, in accordance with their applicable Excess Pro Rata Share, and to Parent at the times, and upon the terms and conditions, set forth in this Agreement and the Adjustment and First Data Escrow Agreement. The terms and provisions of the Adjustment and First Data Escrow Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby are specific terms of the Merger, and the approval and adoption of this Agreement and approval of the Merger by the Company Sellers constitutes approval by such Company Sellers, as specific terms of the Merger, and the irrevocable agreement of such Company Sellers to be bound by and comply with, the Adjustment and First Data Escrow Agreement and all of the arrangements and provisions of this Agreement relating thereto, including the deposit of the Adjustment Escrow Amount into the Adjustment Escrow Fund and the appointment and sole authority of the Stockholder Representative to act on behalf of the Company Sellers, as provided for herein and in the Adjustment and First Data Escrow Agreement.

Treatment of the First Data Warrant Escrow Amount shall be governed by Section 1.10(e) hereof.
(c)The parties acknowledge and agree that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, unless forgiven prior to Closing, the PPP Loan will not be terminated or satisfied at or prior to the Closing, but rather, the Company will maintain the PPP Loan and the parties will comply with the terms of this Section 1.10(d) on account therewith. Promptly following receipt of a response to the filing of a Forgiveness Application that acknowledges that all or a portion of a PPP Loan has been forgiven, the parties agree that they shall jointly instruct the PPP Loan Escrow Agent to disburse the funds in the escrow account established pursuant to the PPP Loan Escrow Agreement (the “PPP Loan Escrow Account”) as follows: (a) an amount equal to the amount of such PPP Loan that is acknowledged in such response as being forgiven, if any, shall be disbursed pursuant to a joint written instruction of Parent and the Stockholder Representative to the Company Sellers, in accordance with their applicable Excess Pro Rata Share, and (b) the balance of the funds in the PPP Loan Escrow Account in respect of such PPP Loan shall be disbursed to Parent or the PPP Lender, as applicable. In the event that the Company receives a response from the SBA denying the request for forgiveness of such PPP Loan, or if the PPP Loan reaches its stated maturity date prior to receiving a response to the Forgiveness Application, Parent and the Stockholder Representative agree that such PPP Loan shall be deemed for the purposes hereof not to be forgiven such that the forgiveness amount of such PPP Loan shall be $0 and that the parties shall jointly instruct the PPP Loan Escrow Agent to disburse from the PPP Loan Escrow Account to the PPP Lender an amount necessary to pay all outstanding amounts due with respect to such PPP Loan in full satisfaction thereof.

a.Dissenting Shares.


i.Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, any shares of Company Capital Stock that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and with respect to which the Company Stockholder thereof has properly demanded appraisal rights in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL, and who has not effectively withdrawn or lost such holder’s appraisal rights under the DGCL (collectively, the “Dissenting Shares”), shall not be converted into or represent the right to receive the payments set forth in Section 1.7, but such Company Stockholder shall only be entitled to such rights as are provided by the DGCL. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 1.11, if any holder of Dissenting Shares shall effectively withdraw or lose (through failure to perfect or otherwise) such holder’s appraisal rights or dissenters’ rights under the DGCL, then, as of the later of the Effective Time and the occurrence of such event, such holder’s shares shall automatically be converted into and represent only the right to receive the consideration for Company Capital Stock, as applicable, set forth in Section 1.7, without interest thereon, and subject to the escrow provisions set forth in Section 1.7 and expense provisions in Section 7.2, upon the due surrender of duly executed Exchange Documents in the manner set forth in Section 1.9.

Except with respect to withholding pursuant to the Company’s failure to deliver the certificate described in Section 1.4(b)(ix), withholding resulting from failure to receive a properly completed IRS Form W-9 or applicable IRS Form W-8 or other similar documentation, and withholding with respect to any payment treated as compensation for U.S. income Tax purposes, Parent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to: (x) notify the applicable payee(s) as promptly as practicable prior to deducting or withholding from any amounts otherwise payable to the Company Security Holders pursuant to this Agreement, and (y) cooperate, as reasonably requested by the applicable payee(s), to reduce or eliminate such deduction or withholding, if permitted by applicable Law. To the extent any such amounts are so deducted or withheld and paid to the proper Governmental Entity, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as having been paid to the Person to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid. In the case of any payment treated as compensation subject to payroll Taxes for
U.S. income Tax purposes, the parties will cooperate to pay such amounts through the applicable payroll processing systems of the Surviving Company or Parent or any of their Subsidiaries, to facilitate applicable withholding.

i.No later than two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to Parent its good faith calculation of (i) the estimated Closing Working Capital Adjustment Amount (the “Estimated Closing Working Capital Adjustment Amount”), (ii) the estimated Closing Indebtedness Amount (the “Estimated Closing Indebtedness Amount”), (iii) the estimated Closing Cash Amount (the “Estimated Closing Cash Amount”), (iv) the estimated Closing Third Party Expenses (the “Estimated Closing Third Party Expenses”), (v) the estimated Closing ARR (the “Estimated Closing ARR”) and (vi) the Total Closing Merger Consideration (including the component pieces thereof) (such certification, the “Estimated Closing Statement”), in each case, accompanied by reasonably detailed back-up documentation for such calculations. The Company shall prepare the Estimated Closing Statement in accordance with GAAP and, to the extent consistent with GAAP, in accordance with the Company’s past practices (including the methodologies, practices, estimation techniques, assumptions and principles applied in the preparation of the Financials). The Company shall make available to Parent and its Representatives the books and records used in preparing the Estimated Closing Statement and reasonable access (on prior written notice and during business hours) to the Chief Financial Officer of the Company as Parent may reasonably request in connection with its review of such Estimated Closing Statement, and will otherwise cooperate in good faith with Parent’s and its Representatives review of such statements and shall take into consideration in good faith any comments of Parent on the Estimated Closing Statement, as applicable, provided that any failure to 








make a requested change shall not alter the obligations of the parties to proceed with the Closing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will any of Parent’s rights be considered


waived, impaired or otherwise limited as a result of Parent not making an objection prior to the Closing or it making an objection that is not fully implemented in a revised Estimated Closing Statement, as applicable.


i.As soon as reasonably practicable after the Closing Date, and in any event within one hundred twenty (120) days after the Closing Date, Parent shall prepare and deliver to the Stockholder Representative a statement (the “Post-Closing Statement”) that shall set forth a calculation of (i) the Closing Working Capital Adjustment Amount, (ii) the Closing Indebtedness Amount, (iii) the Closing Third Party Expenses, (iv) the Closing Cash Amount, (v) Closing ARR, and (vi) the Total Closing Merger Consideration, in each case accompanied by reasonably detailed back-up documentation for such calculations. Parent shall prepare such Post-Closing Statement in accordance with GAAP and, to the extent consistent with GAAP, in accordance with the Company’s past practices (including the methodologies practices, estimation techniques, assumptions and principles applied in the preparation of the Financials). After the Stockholder Representative’s receipt of the Post-Closing Statement, the Stockholder Representative and its Representatives shall be permitted to review Parent’s working papers and the working papers of Parent’s independent accountants, if any, relating to the preparation of the Post-Closing Statement and the calculation of the Closing Working Capital Adjustment Amount, Closing Indebtedness Amount, Closing Cash Amount, Closing ARR and Closing Third Party Expenses after signing a customary confidentiality agreement relating to such access to working papers in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Parent’s independent accountants, as well as the relevant books and records of the Company, and Parent shall cause the Company and its Representatives to use commercially reasonable efforts to assist the Stockholder Representative and its Representatives in their reasonable review of the Post-Closing Statement. The Stockholder Representative shall notify Parent in writing (the “Notice of Adjustment Disagreement”) within forty-five (45) days of the Stockholder Representative’s receipt of the Post-Closing Statement (the “Adjustment Review Period”) if the Stockholder Representative disagrees with any portion of the Post-Closing Statement. The Notice of Adjustment Disagreement shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for such disagreement and the amounts involved and the Stockholder Representative’s proposed adjustments to the Post-Closing Statement. If no Notice of Adjustment Disagreement is received by Parent on or prior to the expiration date of the Adjustment Review Period, then the Post-Closing Statement and all amounts set forth therein shall be deemed to have been accepted by the Stockholder Representative and shall become final and binding upon the parties hereto and the Company Sellers, provided that such period shall be tolled to the extent Parent unreasonably delays provisions of the materials described above. During the thirty (30) days immediately following the delivery of a Notice of Adjustment Disagreement (the “Adjustment Resolution Period”), if any, the Stockholder Representative and Parent shall seek in good faith to resolve any disagreement that they may have with respect to the matters specified in the Notice of Adjustment Disagreement. Any items agreed to by the Stockholder Representative and Parent in a written agreement executed and delivered by each of the Stockholder Representative and Parent, together with any items not disputed or objected to by the Stockholder Representative in the Notice of Adjustment Disagreement, are collectively referred to herein as the “Resolved Matters.” If at the end of the Adjustment Resolution Period, the parties have been unable to resolve any differences they may have with respect to the matters specified in the Notice of Adjustment Disagreement, the Stockholder Representative and Parent, or either of them, shall refer all matters in the Notice of Adjustment Disagreement other than the Resolved Matters (the “Unresolved Matters”) to the Los Angeles office of Duff & Phelps (the “Independent Accountant”). In the event that the Los Angeles office of Duff & Phelps refuses or is otherwise unable to act as the Independent Accountant, the Stockholder Representative and Parent shall cooperate in good faith to appoint an independent valuation firm in the United States of national recognition mutually agreeable to the Stockholder Representative and Parent, in which event “Independent Accountant” shall mean such firm. Within thirty (30) days after the submission of such matters to the Independent Accountant, the Independent Accountant, acting as an expert and not as an arbitrator, will make a final determination, binding on the parties hereto, of the appropriate amount of each of the Unresolved Matters. With respect to each Unresolved Matter, such determination, if not in accordance with the position of either the Stockholder Representative or Parent, shall not be in excess of the higher, nor less than the lower, of the amounts










advocated by the Stockholder Representative in the Notice of Adjustment Disagreement or Parent in the Post-Closing Statement with respect to such Unresolved Matter. For the avoidance of doubt, the Independent Accountant shall not review any line items in the Post-Closing Statement or make any determination with respect to any matter other than the Unresolved Matters. During the review by the Independent Accountant, Parent and the Stockholder Representative shall each make available to the Independent Accountant such individuals and such information, books, records and work papers, as may be reasonably required by the Independent Accountant to fulfill its obligations under this Section 1.14(b); provided, that the independent accountants of Parent or the Company shall not be obligated to make any working papers available to the Independent Accountant unless and until the Independent Accountant has signed a customary confidentiality and hold harmless agreement relating to such access to working papers in form and substance reasonably acceptable to such independent accountants. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant shall be borne by Parent and the Stockholder Representative (on behalf of the Company Sellers) based on the inverse of the percentage that the Independent Accountant’s resolution of the disputed items covered by such Notice of Adjustment Disagreement (before such allocation) bears to the total amount of such disputed items as originally submitted to the Independent Accountant (for example, if the total amount of such disputed items as originally submitted to the Independent Accountant equals
$1,000 and the Independent Accountant awards $600 in favor of the Stockholder Representative’s position, sixty percent (60%) of the fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant would be borne by Parent and forty percent (40%) of the fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant would be borne by the Stockholder Representative (on behalf of the Company Sellers).


i.The “Final Closing Statement” shall be (i) in the event that no Notice of Adjustment Disagreement is delivered by the Stockholder Representative to Parent prior to the expiration of the Adjustment Review Period, the Post-Closing Statement delivered by Parent to the Stockholder Representative pursuant to Section 1.14(b), (ii) in the event that a Notice of Adjustment Disagreement is delivered by the Stockholder Representative to Parent prior to the expiration of the Adjustment Review Period and Parent and the Stockholder Representative are able to agree on all matters set forth in such Notice of Adjustment Disagreement, the Post-Closing Statement delivered by Parent to the Stockholder Representative pursuant to Section 1.14(b) as adjusted pursuant to the written agreement executed and delivered by Parent and the Stockholder Representative or (iii) in the event that a Notice of Adjustment Disagreement is delivered by the Stockholder Representative to Parent prior to the expiration of the Adjustment Review Period and Parent and the Stockholder Representative are unable to agree on all matters set forth in such Notice of Adjustment Disagreement, the Post-Closing Statement delivered by Parent to the Stockholder Representative pursuant to Section 1.14(b) as adjusted by the Independent Accountant to be consistent with the Resolved Matters and the final determination of the Independent Accountant of the Unresolved Matters in accordance with Section 1.14(b). The date on which the Final Closing Statement is finally determined in accordance with this Section 1.14(c) is hereinafter referred to as the “Determination Date.”


i.If the Total Closing Merger Consideration set forth in the Final Closing Statement (as finally determined in accordance with this Section 1.14) is less than the Total Closing Merger Consideration set forth in the Estimated Closing Statement (such difference, the “Post-Closing Deficit Amount”), then Parent and the Stockholder Representative shall promptly (but in all events within five (5)
Business Days after the Determination Date), instruct the Adjustment and                              Agent to
promptly release to Parent from the Adjustment Escrow Fund an amount in cash equal to the absolute value of the Post-Closing Deficit Amount (plus any costs allocated to the Stockholder Representative (on behalf of the Company Sellers) pursuant to the last sentence of Section 1.14(c)). The Post-Closing Deficit Amount shall not exceed the Adjustment Escrow Amount.


i.If the Total Closing Merger Consideration set forth in the Final Closing Statement (as finally determined in accordance with this Section 1.14) is more than the Total Closing Merger


Consideration set forth in the Estimated Closing Statement (such difference, the “Post-Closing Excess Amount”), then Parent shall promptly (but in all events within five (5) Business Days after the Determination Date), pay the Post-Closing Excess 








Amount in cash to (i) the Paying Agent for further distribution to the Company Security Holders (other than the holders of Employee Options in respect of such Employee Options) the portion of such amount payable pursuant to Section 1.7(a), Section 1.7(b)(i) and Section 1.7(c), as applicable, and (ii) to the Surviving Corporation for further payment to the holders of Employee Options pursuant to Section 1.7(b)(i) through Parent’s, the Surviving Corporation’s payroll processing system in accordance with standard payroll practices net of applicable Tax withholding and deductions; provided, further, that as a condition to Parent’s and Paying Agent’s obligation to make such payments, the Stockholder Representative shall first deliver to Parent an updated Allocation Schedule setting forth the portion of the Post-Closing Excess Amount payable to each Company Seller. The Post- Closing Excess Amount shall not exceed $1,000,000.


i.Following the payment of any Post-Closing Deficit Amount to Parent in accordance with Section 1.14(d) or any Post-Closing Excess Amount to the Company Sellers in accordance with Section 1.14(e), Parent and the Stockholder Representative shall deliver a joint instruction to the Adjustment and First Data Escrow Agent instructing the Adjustment and First Data Escrow Agent to release from the Adjustment Escrow Fund an aggregate amount equal to the then remaining cash available in the Adjustment Escrow Fund, if any, to (i) the Paying Agent for further distribution to the Company Security Holders (other than the holders of Employee Options in respect of such Employee Options) the portion of such amount payable pursuant to Section 1.7(a), Section 1.7(b)(i) and Section 1.7(c), as applicable, and (ii) to the Surviving Corporation for further payment to the holders of Employee Options pursuant to Section 1.7(b)(i) through Parent’s, the Surviving Corporation’s payroll processing system in accordance with standard payroll practices net of applicable Tax withholding and deductions; provided, further, that as a condition to Parent’s and Paying Agent’s obligation to make such payments, the Stockholder Representative shall first deliver to Parent an updated Allocation Schedule setting forth the portion of the remaining cash available in the Adjustment Escrow Fund payable to each Company Seller.


i.Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon the updated Allocation Schedule delivered by the Stockholder Representative, including with respect to whether any individual Company Seller received the appropriate portion of any such distribution, and in no event will Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their Affiliates have any liability to any person on account of payments or distributions made by the Paying Agent in accordance with the updated Allocation Schedule delivered by the Stockholder Representative.


i.All payments to be made pursuant to this Section 1.14 shall be treated as an adjustment to the purchase price for applicable Tax Purposes, unless otherwise required by a change in Law or a Tax Authority in connection with an audit or other similar proceeding.

After the Stockholder Representative’s receipt of an Earnout Statement, the Stockholder Representative and its Representatives shall be provided reasonable access (on prior written notice and during business hours, in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with Parent’s conduct of business) to the Chief Financial Officer of the Surviving Corporation as Stockholder Representative may reasonably request in connection with its review of such Earnout Statement, and be permitted to review Parent’s working papers and the working papers of Parent’s independent accountants, if any, relating to the preparation of the Earnout Statement and the calculation of the Earnout Payment Amount after (in connection with working papers relating to Parent’s independent accountants only) signing a customary confidentiality relating to such access to independent accountants’ working papers in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Parent’s independent accountants, as well as the relevant books and records of the Company, and Parent shall cause the Company and its Representatives to use commercially reasonable efforts to assist the Stockholder Representative and its Representatives in their reasonable review of the Earnout Statement.


1.If the Stockholder Representative objects to Parent’s determination of the First Anniversary Payment Amount or Second Anniversary Payment Amount, as applicable (as reflected in an Earnout Statement), the Stockholder Representative shall notify Parent in writing of such objection within forty-five (45) days after receipt of the applicable Earnout Statement from Parent (an “Earnout Objection Notice”), which notice shall specify the calculations that are being disputed and describe in reasonable detail the basis for such disputes.


1.If the Stockholder Representative does not timely deliver an Earnout Objection Notice with respect to an Earnout Statement, then Parent’s determination of the First Anniversary Payment Amount or Second Anniversary Payment Amount, as applicable (as set forth in such Earnout Statement) will be conclusive, final and binding in its entirety on all of the parties.


1.During the thirty (30) days immediately following the delivery of an Earnout Objection Notice (the “Earnout Resolution Period”), if any, the Stockholder Representative and Parent shall seek in good faith to resolve any disagreement that they may have with respect to the matters specified in the Earnout Objection Notice. Any items agreed to by the Stockholder Representative and Parent in a written agreement executed and delivered by each of the Stockholder Representative and Parent, together with any items not disputed or objected to by the Stockholder Representative in the Earnout Objection Notice, are collectively referred to herein as the “Earnout Resolved Matters.” If at the end of the Earnout Resolution Period, the parties have been unable to resolve any differences they may 








have with respect to the matters specified in the Earnout Objection Notice, the Stockholder Representative and Parent, or either of them, shall refer all matters in the Earnout Objection Notice other than the Earnout Resolved Matters (the “Earnout Unresolved Matters”) to the Independent Accountant. Within thirty (30) days after the submission of such matters to the Independent Accountant, the Independent Accountant, acting as an


expert and not as an arbitrator, will make a final determination, binding on the parties hereto, of the appropriate amount of each of the Earnout Unresolved Matters. With respect to each Earnout Unresolved Matter, such determination, if not in accordance with the position of either the Stockholder Representative or Parent, shall not be in excess of the higher, nor less than the lower, of the amounts advocated by the Stockholder Representative in the Earnout Objection Notice or Parent in the Earnout Statement with respect to such Earnout Unresolved Matter. For the avoidance of doubt, the Independent Accountant shall not review any line items in the Earnout Statement or make any determination with respect to any matter other than the Earnout Unresolved Matters. During the review by the Independent Accountant, Parent and the Stockholder Representative shall each make available to the Independent Accountant such individuals and such information, books, records and work papers, as may be reasonably required by the Independent Accountant to fulfill its obligations under this Section 1.15(b); provided, that the independent accountants of the Company or the Stockholder Representative shall not be obligated to make any working papers available to the Independent Accountant unless and until the Independent Accountant has signed a customary confidentiality and hold harmless agreement relating to such access to working papers in form and substance reasonably acceptable to such independent accountants. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant shall be borne by Parent and the Stockholder Representative (on behalf of the Company Sellers) based on the inverse of the percentage that the Independent Accountant’s resolution of the disputed items covered by such Notice of Adjustment Disagreement (before such allocation) bears to the total amount of such disputed items as originally submitted to the Independent Accountant (for example, if the total amount of such disputed items as originally submitted to the Independent Accountant equals
$1,000 and the Independent Accountant awards $600 in favor of the Stockholder Representative’s position, sixty percent (60%) of the fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant would be borne by Parent and forty percent (40%) of the fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant would be borne by the Stockholder Representative (on behalf of the Company Sellers). For the avoidance of doubt, the resolution mechanism set forth above is solely with respect to the mathematical calculation of the payment amount, and shall not in any way limit the rights of the parties to bring any claim with respect to compliance with the obligations of this Agreement.
i.
ii.Earnout Payment Amounts.


1.Promptly following the final determination of the First Anniversary Payment Amount or Second Anniversary Payment Amount, as applicable (or portion thereof) in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.15(b) and within two (2) Business Days following receipt of an updated Allocation Schedule required pursuant to Section 1.15 1.15(c)(iv), Parent shall pay, or shall cause to be paid, (A) the First Anniversary Payment Amount or Second Anniversary Payment Amount, as applicable (as finally determined in accordance with the provisions of this Section 1.15) in accordance with (i) the Allocation Schedule, as updated by the Stockholder Representative in accordance with Section 1.15(c)(iii) below and (ii) Section 1.15 1.15(c)(ii), (B) the Brokerage Fee as it relates to the First Anniversary Payment Amount or Second Anniversary Payment Amount, as applicable, and (C) the Transaction Bonuses.


1.Each aggregate Earnout Payment Amount shall be payable (A) in an amount of cash equal to at least thirty percent (30%) of such Earnout Payment Amount (after giving effect to the deduction of the Brokerage Fee and Transaction Bonuses to each recipient and (B) in Parent Common Stock to each recipient for the remainder of such Earnout Payment Amount at price per share of Parent Common Stock equal to the Applicable Earnout Price Per Share. For the avoidance of doubt, (a) Parent may, in its sole discretion, pay a greater percentage of the Earnout Payment Amount in cash, and (b) if any recipient of such amount is not permitted to receive Parent Common Stock because such recipient is not an Accredited Stockholder, then such recipient shall receive 100% of such payment in cash.










1.Each Brokerage Fee shall be paid by the Surviving Company in cash at the time of payment of each Earnout Payment Amount. The Transaction Bonuses shall be paid, subject to any required Tax withholding, in the same form and same proportion as the Earnout Payment Amount.


1.Prior to the payment of each Earnout Payment Amount, the Stockholder Representative shall update the Allocation Schedule to account for the allocation of the relevant Earnout Payment Amount, such that (A) former holders of Vested Options and Unaccredited Stockholders receive the Per Share First Anniversary Payment Amount and the Per Share Second Anniversary Payment Amount entirely in cash and (B) Accredited Stockholders and Warrantholders receive the Per Share First Anniversary Payment Amount and the Per Share Second Anniversary Payment Amount in a proportional mix of (x) the cash that is remaining after allocation pursuant to clause (A) and (y) Parent Common Stock.


i.Earnout Operating Period. Attached as Schedule D hereto is an expense budget (the “Earnout Period Operating Expense Budget”) which shall govern certain expenditures of the business (as specified therein) of the Company during the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending upon the expiration of the Second Earnout Period (the “Earnout Operating Period”). During the Earnout Operating Period, prior to Parent taking or authorizing any action which would result in any reduction to the budgeted expenses set forth in the Earnout Period Expense Budget, Parent shall provide notice of such intended action or authorization to the Stockholder Representative and shall not undertake such change without the Stockholder Representative’s prior written consent. During the Earnout Operating Period, Parent agrees (x) to operate the Company in the Ordinary Course of Business, (y) not to seek to divert business away from the Company that would relate to the calculation of the Earnout Payment Amounts to other entities affiliated with Parent and (z) that it shall use commercially reasonable efforts not to take actions to frustrate the ability of the Company Sellers to receive Earnout Payment Amounts. In the event of a change in control of Parent during the Earnout Operating Period, Parent shall cause the acquiror to assume the obligations of Parent in this Section 1.15. Except to the extent set forth in this Section 1.15(d), Parent hereby disclaims any and all obligation to operate the business for the benefit of the Company Sellers.


i.Parent Common Stock.


1.Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be issued to in connection with the Earnout Payment Amounts and any such fractional share interests shall be rounded up to the nearest whole share of Parent Common Stock.


1.The Company Sellers acknowledge that the Parent Common Stock to be issued pursuant to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall constitute “restricted securities” within the meaning of the Securities Act, and that such Parent Common Stock will not be registered under the Securities Act and that such Parent Common Stock may only be transferred under Rule 144. At no time was any Company Stockholder solicited by means of general advertising or general solicitation in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.


i.The parties hereto understand and agree that (i) the contingent rights to receive the Earnout Payment Amounts (or any portion thereof) shall not be represented by any form of certificate or other instrument, are not transferable, except by operation of law relating to descent and distribution, divorce and community property, and do not constitute an equity or ownership interest in Parent or the Company, (ii) the Company Sellers shall not have any rights as a securityholder of Parent or the Company as a result of the Company Sellers’ contingent right to receive the Earnout Payment Amounts hereunder, and (iii) no interest is payable with respect to any Earnout Payment Amounts unless awarded by a court upon a finding that Parent failed to pay such amounts when due. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree


that neither the Earnout Payment Amounts nor any Company Seller’s right to receive any portion thereof is or shall be deemed to be a “security” as defined in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or other federal, state or local Laws.










i.Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, Parent shall in no event issue any Parent Common Stock to the Company Sellers in connection with the transactions described herein to the extent that such issuance (i) in the aggregate constitutes, or is convertible into, Parent Common Stock that constitutes greater than 19.9% of the common stock or voting power of Parent outstanding as of the Agreement Date, (ii) would constitute a change of control under NASDAQ Stock Market Listing Rules, or (iii) would otherwise trigger a shareholder approval requirement under NASDAQ Stock Market Listing Rules.


i.All payments to be made pursuant to this Section 1.15 shall be treated as an adjustment to the purchase price for applicable Tax Purposes, unless otherwise required by a change in Law or a Tax Authority in connection with an audit or other similar proceeding.
