Section 2.07 Purchase Price; Holdback
Shares.

 

(a)       The
aggregate purchase price for the Purchased Assets shall be equal to
the Purchase Price, plus
the assumption of the Assumed Liabilities. The Parties agree and
acknowledge that Onewire shall be solely responsible for, and shall
pay in full on or before the Closing Date, all of Onewire’s
(i) Indebtedness, (ii) Transaction Expenses, and (iii) Liabilities
that are not Assumed Liabilities.

 

(b)       On
the Closing Date, Recruiter shall issue the Share Consideration to
Onewire (the “Closing Share
Payment”), of which the Holdback Shares will be held
by Onewire pursuant to Section 2.07(c), Section 2.08, Section 2.09,
and shall be used to fund the Onewire’s indemnity obligations
pursuant to Article VIII.

 

 

13

 

 

(c)       Holdback
Shares. At Closing, Recruiter shall issue the Holdback
Shares to Onewire, provided, however, that the Holdback Shares
shall be subject to forfeiture to Recruiter for no consideration in
accordance with Onewire's indemnity obligations pursuant to Article
VIII (the "Holdback
Forfeiture Condition"). On the date that is one (1) year
after the Closing Date (the "Release Date"), the Holdback
Forfeiture Condition shall expire with respect to the Holdback
Shares.

 

Section 2.08 Closing Working Capital Adjustment;
Post-Closing True-Up.

 

(a)       At
least three (3) Business Day before the Closing, Onewire shall
prepare and deliver to Newco a statement (the “Estimated Closing Working Capital
Statement”) setting forth Onewire’s good faith
estimate of Closing Working Capital (the “Estimated Closing Working
Capital”), including the calculation thereof in
reasonable detail, calculated using the same methodology as set
forth on Exhibit
C.

 

(b)       At
the Closing, the Purchase Price shall be either (i) increased by
the amount, if any, by which the Estimated Closing Working Capital
(as set forth in the Estimated Closing Working Capital Statement)
is greater than the Target
Working Capital, or (ii) decreased by the amount, if any, by which
the Estimated Closing Working Capital (as set forth in the
Estimated Closing Working Capital Statement) is less than the Target Working
Capital.

 

(c)       As
soon as reasonably practicable but in any event within 45 days
after the Closing Date, Newco shall prepare and deliver to Onewire
a statement (the “Closing
Working Capital Statement”) setting forth
Newco’s calculation of Closing Working Capital, including the
calculation thereof in reasonable detail calculated using the same
methodology as set forth on Exhibit C. The post-closing
working capital adjustment (the “Post-Closing Working Capital
Adjustment”) shall be an amount equal to the Closing
Working Capital minus the
Estimated Closing Working Capital.

 

(d)       After
receipt of the Closing Working Capital Statement, Onewire shall
have 45 days (the “Review
Period”) to review the Closing Working Capital
Statement. During the Review Period, Onewire and its accountants
shall, at their sole expense, have reasonable access to the
personnel of, and work papers prepared by, Newco or Newco’s
accountants to the extent relating to the Closing Working Capital
Statement and the calculation of the Post-Closing Adjustment;
provided,
however, that any
such access shall be during normal business hours and shall be
conducted in a manner so not to disrupt the operations of the
Business.

 

(e)       On
or prior to the last day of the Review Period, Onewire may object
to the Closing Working Capital Statement by delivering to Newco a
written statement setting forth Onewire’s objections in
reasonable detail (the “Statement of Objections”). If
Onewire fails to deliver the Statement of Objections before the
expiration of the Review Period, then the Closing Working Capital
Statement and the Post-Closing Working Capital Adjustment
(reflected in the Closing Working Capital Statement), as the case
may be, shall be deemed to have been accepted by Onewire. If
Onewire delivers the Statement of Objections prior to the
expiration of the Review Period, then Onewire and Newco shall
negotiate in good faith to resolve such objections within 30 days
after the delivery of the Statement of Objections (the
“Resolution
Period”) and, if such objections are resolved within
the Resolution Period, then the Post-Closing Working Capital
Adjustment and the Closing Working Capital Statement, with such
changes as may have been previously agreed in writing by Newco and
Onewire, shall be final and binding upon the
Parties.

 

(f)       If
Onewire and Newco fail to reach an agreement with respect to all of
the matters set forth in the Statement of Objections before
expiration of the Resolution Period, then any amounts remaining in
dispute (“Disputed
Amounts”) shall be submitted for resolution to the
office of an impartial internationally recognized firm of
independent certified public accountants other than Newco’s
accountants or Onewire’s accountants (the “Independent Accountant”) and
appointed mutually by Onewire and Newco, who, acting as experts and
not arbitrators, shall resolve the Disputed Amounts only and make
any adjustments to the Post-Closing Working Capital Adjustment, as
the case may be, and the Closing Working Capital Statement. The
Independent Accountant shall only decide the specific items under
dispute by the Parties and their decision for each Disputed Amount
must be within the range of values assigned to each such item in
the Closing Working Capital Statement and the Statement of
Objections, respectively.

 

 

14

 

 

(g)       The
Independent Accountant shall make a determination as soon as
practicable within 30 days (or such other time as the Parties
hereto shall agree in writing) after their engagement, and their
resolution of the Disputed Amounts and their adjustments to the
Closing Working Capital Statement and/or the Post-Closing Working
Capital Adjustment shall be conclusive and binding upon the Parties
hereto.

 

(h)       Except
as otherwise provided herein, any payment of the Post-Closing
Working Capital Adjustment shall be due (x) within five Business
Days of acceptance of the applicable Closing Working Capital
Statement or (y) if there are Disputed Amounts, then within five
Business Days of the resolution of such Disputed Amounts pursuant
to Section2.08(c). If the Post-Closing Working Capital Adjustment,
as finally determined by the Independent Accountant, is a positive
number in favor of Onewire (i.e., the Closing Working Capital is
greater than the Estimated
Closing Working Capital), Recruiter shall issue to Onewire
additional shares of Recruiter Common Stock based on the Share
Consideration Price Per Share on the payment date. If the
Post-Closing Working Capital
Adjustment, as finally determined by the Independent Accountant, is
a negative number in favor of Newco (i.e., the Closing
Working Capital is less
than the Estimated Closing Working Capital), Onewire shall transfer
to Recruiter from the Holdback Shares the appropriate number of
shares of Recruiter Common Stock based on the Share Consideration
Price Per Share on the payment date.

 

(i)       Allocations;
Adjustments for Tax Purposes. For U.S. federal Taxes,
Recruiter, Newco and Onewire agree to allocate the Purchase Price,
the Assumed Liabilities, and all other relevant items among the
Purchased Assets (the “Allocation”) in accordance with
the Purchase Price Allocation Methodology attached hereto as
Exhibit F. Any
payments made pursuant to this Section 2.08 shall be
treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price by the Parties for
Taxes purposes, unless otherwise required by applicable Law.
Neither Recruiter, Newco nor Onewire shall, nor shall they permit
their respective Affiliates to, take any position inconsistent with
the Purchase Price Allocation Methodology. Recruiter, Newco and
Onewire shall make appropriate adjustments to the Allocation to
reflect the adjustments to the Purchase Price set forth in this
Section 2.08 and Section 2.09.

 

Section 2.09 Post-Closing Revenue
True-Up.

 

(a)       Subject
to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.09, Onewire shall be
entitled to receive additional shares of Recruiter Common Stock
based on the amount of Onewire Business Revenue actually collected
for fiscal 2020 (the “Onewire
Revenue True-Up Payment”).

 

(b)       In
the event that the aggregate amount of the Onewire Business Revenue
for the period commencing on January 1, 2020 and ending on December
31, 2020, and actually collected by Onewire by the close of
business on February 28, 2021 (the “2020 Base Revenue Amount”), as
reflected in Onewire’s 2020 audited financial statements (the
“Onewire 2020 Audited
Financials”), is greater than the Onewire Valuation,
Onewire shall be entitled to receive, and Recruiter shall pay and
deliver to Onewire within 45 days following delivery of the Onewire
2020 Audited Financials, a Onewire Revenue True-Up Payment in an
amount equal to the 2020 Base Revenue Amount minus the Onwire Valuation. Such
Onewire Revenue True-Up Payment shall be made by Recruiter in
shares of Recruiter Common Stock based on the Share Consideration
Price Per Share on the date such Onewire Revenue True-Up Payment is
made.

 

(c)       In
the event that the Onewire Revenue True-Up Payment pursuant to
Section 2.09(b) is less
than the 2020 Base Revenue Amount, Newco shall be entitled to
receive, and Onewire shall transfer and deliver to Newco within 45
days following delivery of the Onewire 2020 Audited Financials, a
payment in an amount equal to the difference between the Revenue
True-Up Payment and the 2020 Base Revenue Amount (the
“Newco Revenue True-Up
Payment”); provided, however, that in no event shall
the Newco Revenue True-Up Payment exceed 50% of the aggregate value
of the Holdback Shares based on the Share Consideration Price Per
Share on the date that such Newco Revenue True-Up Payment is made.
The Newco Revenue True-Up Payment shall be made by Onewire in the
form of shares of Recruiter Common Stock, based on the Share
Consideration Price Per Share on the date such Newco Revenue
True-Up Payment is made. In the event of a dispute regarding the
amount or calculation of the Revenue True-Up Payment, such dispute
shall be resolved by the Independent Accountant in accordance with
Section 2.08.

Section 2.10 Tax Consequences; Plan of
Reorganization; Tax Reporting. The Parties intend
that the purchase of the Purchased Assets contemplated by this
Agreement shall qualify as a tax-free reorganization pursuant to
Section 368(a)(1)(C) of the Code and that the receipt of all
Recruiter Common Stock shall qualify as tax free consideration for
the Purchased Assets pursuant to Section 361(a) of the Code. The
Parties shall file all Tax Returns required by Law consistent with
such treatment, except as otherwise required by final determination
of a Tax authority. By executing this Agreement, the Parties hereto
adopt this Agreement as a “plan of reorganization”
within the meaning of Section 1.368-2(g) and 1.368-3(a) of the
Treasury Regulations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Recruiter
makes no representations or warranties to Onewire regarding the Tax
treatment of the transaction contemplated hereby, or any of the Tax
consequences to Onewire, the Shareholders or other security holders
of Onewire, under this Agreement or any of the other transactions
or agreements contemplated hereby. Onewire acknowledges that it is
relying solely on Onewire’s own Tax advisors in connection
with this Agreement and the other transactions and agreements
contemplated hereby. Neither Onewire, Recruiter, Newco, nor any of
their Affiliates, has taken, shall take or agreed to take any
action, or shall refrain from taking any action, that would
reasonably be expected to prevent the transactions contemplated
hereby from constituting a reorganization qualifying under Section
368(a)(1)(C) of the Code.

 

Section 2.11 Third Party Consents. To
the extent that Onewire’s rights under any Assigned Contract,
or any other Purchased Asset, may not be assigned to Newco without
the consent of another Person which has not been obtained, this
Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign the same if
an attempted assignment would constitute a breach thereof or be
unlawful, and Onewire, at its expense, shall use its commercially
reasonable efforts to obtain any such required consent(s) as
promptly as possible. If any such consent shall not be obtained or
if any attempted assignment would be ineffective or would impair
Newco’s rights under the Purchased Asset in question so that
Newco would not in effect acquire the benefit of all such rights,
Onewire, to the maximum extent permitted by law and such Purchased
Asset, shall act after the Closing as Newco’s agent in order
to obtain for it the benefits thereunder and shall cooperate, to
the maximum extent permitted by Law and such Purchased Asset, with
Newco in any other reasonable arrangement designed to provide such
benefits to Newco.

 

Section 2.12 Interim Payroll. Upon
Closing, Purchaser shall be obligated to make the payroll
disbursements in the amounts and to individuals set forth in
Exhibit D
hereto.

Onewire has not been a party to any Contract, nor has Onewire been

whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or
otherwise; and the terms “controlling” and

supplement or amend, from time to time, their respective Disclosure

Knowledge of Onewire or Recruiter and/or Newco, matters, if any, of
which Onewire or Recruiter and/or Newco, as applicable, first
acquires such Knowledge after the date hereof. The amending Party
shall reasonably highlight the changes in the Disclosure Schedules
comprising supplements or amendments made pursuant to this Section
5.10. In the event that the changes to the Disclosure Schedules

Party to any other Party hereto. In order to terminate this
Agreement pursuant to this Section 5.10, the non-amending Party
must give notice of such termination to the amending Party within

Newco shall:

reasonable notice, afford Onewire’s Representatives
reasonable access (including the right to make, at Onewire’s
expense, photocopies), during normal business hours, to such Books
and Records.

 

(b)       Neither
Recruiter nor Newco shall be obligated to provide Onewire or any
other Party with access to any Books and Records (including
Personnel files) pursuant to this Section 5.11 where such access
would violate any Law.

 

Section 5.12 Non-Competition;
Non-Solicitation.

 

(a)       For
a period of 36 months following the Closing Date, (the
“Restricted
Period”), Onewire shall not, and shall not permit any
of its Affiliates (each, a “Restricted Party”) to, directly or
indirectly, engage in or assist others in engaging in the
Restricted Business (as defined below), or have an interest in any
Person that engages directly or indirectly in the Restricted
Business in any capacity, including as a partner, shareholder,
member, employee, principal, agent, trustee or consultant. For a
period of 24 months following the Closing Date, the Restricted
Parties shall not cause, induce or encourage any material actual or
prospective client, customer, supplier or licensor of the Business
(including any existing or former client or customer of Onewire and
any Person that becomes a client or customer of the Business after
the Closing), or any other Person who has a material business
relationship with the Business, to terminate or modify any such
actual or prospective relationship. The term “Restricted Business” means any
business that competes with the services or products of the
Business, including without limitation, with respect to staffing,

group that controls, such Person and does not, directly or
indirectly, own 5% or more of any class of securities of such
Person.

 

(b)       During
the Restricted Period, the Restricted Parties shall not, and shall
not permit any of their respective Affiliates to, directly or
indirectly, hire or solicit any person who is offered employment by
Buyer pursuant to the terms of an Offer Letter or employment
agreement or is or was employed in the Business during the
Restricted Period, or encourage any such employee to leave such
employment or hire any such employee who has left such employment,
except pursuant to a general solicitation that is not directed
specifically to any such employees.

 

 

35

 

 

(c)       The
Restricted Parties acknowledge that a breach or threatened breach
of this Section 5.12 would give rise to irreparable harm to Newco
and Recruiter, for which monetary damages would not be an adequate
remedy, and hereby agree that in the event of a breach or a
threatened breach by any Restricted Party of such obligations,
Newco and Recruiter shall, in addition to any and all other rights
and remedies that may be available to them in respect of such
breach, be entitled to seek equitable relief, including a temporary
restraining order, an injunction, specific performance and any
other relief that may be available from a court of competent
jurisdiction (without any requirement to post
bond).

 

(d)       The
Restricted Parties acknowledge that the restrictions contained in
this Section 5.12 are reasonable and necessary to protect the
legitimate interests of Newco and Recruiter and constitute a
material inducement to Newco and Recruiter to enter into this
Agreement and consummate the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement. In the event that any covenant contained in this Section
5.12 should ever be adjudicated to exceed the time, geographic,
product or service or other limitations permitted by applicable Law
in any jurisdiction, then any court is expressly empowered to
reform such covenant, and such covenant shall be deemed reformed,
in such jurisdiction to the maximum time, geographic, product or
service or other limitations permitted by applicable Law. The
covenants contained in this Section 5.12 and each provision hereof
are severable and distinct covenants and provisions. The invalidity
or unenforceability of any such covenant or provision as written
shall not invalidate or render unenforceable the remaining
covenants or provisions hereof, and any such invalidity or
unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render
unenforceable such covenant or provision in any other
jurisdiction.

 

Section 5.13 Subsequent Collections.
From and after the Closing, if Onewire or any of its Affiliates
receives or collects any funds relating to any Accounts Receivable
or any other Purchased Asset, Onewire or its Affiliate shall remit

thereof. From and after the Closing, if Newco or its Affiliate
receives or collects any funds relating to any Excluded Asset,
Newco or its Affiliate shall remit any such funds to Onewire or its
designee within five Business Days after its receipt
thereof.

 

Section 5.14 Tax Certificates. If any
taxing authority asserts that Onewire is liable for any Tax,
Onewire shall promptly pay any and all such amounts and shall
provide evidence to Newco that such Liabilities have been paid in
full or otherwise satisfied.

 

Section 5.15 Further Assurances.
Following the Closing, each of the Parties hereto shall, and shall
cause their respective Affiliates to, execute and deliver such
additional documents, instruments, conveyances and assurances and
take such further actions as may be reasonably required to carry
out the provisions hereof and give effect to the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary
Documents.

Parties hereby waive compliance with the provisions of any bulk
sales, bulk transfer or similar Laws of any jurisdiction that may
otherwise be applicable with respect to the sale of any or all of

Article VI

CERTAIN TAX MATTERS

 

Section 6.01 Certain Tax
Matters.

 

(a)       Onewire
will be responsible for preparing and filing property (whether real
or personal) and similar Tax Returns (“Property Tax Returns”) with
respect to the Purchased Assets for Tax periods ending on or before
the Closing Date, and will make all payments required with respect
to each such Tax Return. Newco will be responsible for preparing
and filing all Property Tax Returns for the Purchased Assets for
all periods commencing after the Closing Date and will make all
payments required with respect to each such Tax Return. In the case
of any Property Tax Return that covers a period that begins on or
before the Closing Date and ends after the Closing Date (a
“Straddle
Period”), the Taxes payable (i) by Onewire, shall be
equal to the product of all such Taxes multiplied by a fraction,
the numerator of which is the number of days in the Straddle Period
from the commencement of the Straddle Period through and including
the Closing Date, and the denominator of which is the number of
days in the entire Straddle Period and (ii) by Newco, shall be
equal to the product of all such Taxes multiplied by a fraction,
the numerator of which is the number of days in the Straddle Period
from the day following the Closing Date through and including the
last day of the Straddle Period, and the denominator of which is
the number of days in the entire Straddle Period. Newco and Onewire
shall timely pay, or reimburse the other, for any Taxes properly
payable by such Party for a Straddle Period pursuant hereto. Newco
and Onewire shall cooperate, as and to the extent reasonably
requested by the other Party, in connection with the filing of Tax
Returns pursuant to this Agreement and any audit, Action or other
proceeding with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation shall include
the retention and (upon a Party’s request) the provision of
records and information which are reasonably relevant to any such
audit, Action or other proceeding, making employees available on a
mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and
explanation of any material provided hereunder, and timely
notification of receipt of any notice of an audit or notice of
deficiency relating to any Tax or Tax Return with respect to which
the non-recipient may have Liability hereunder.

 

(b)       Onewire
shall pay all sales or use Taxes, recording, registration and
conveyance Taxes and fees, and similar transfer Taxes arising from
or relating to the transactions contemplated in this Agreement, and
Onewire shall file or cause to be filed all necessary Tax Returns
and other documentation with respect to such Taxes. To the extent
practicable, Onewire shall deliver all of the Purchased Assets
through electronic delivery or in another manner reasonably
calculated and legally permitted to minimize or avoid the
incurrence of transfer and sales Taxes if such method of delivery
does not adversely affect the condition, operability or usefulness
of any Purchased Asset. For the avoidance of doubt, Onewire shall
be solely responsible for any and all income, gross receipts, and
similar Taxes of Onewire for all periods (whether before or after
the Closing), and Onewire shall be solely responsible for preparing
and filing all Tax Returns relating thereto. At the reasonable
request of Newco, Onewire will certify to Newco that Onewire has
paid all such income, gross receipts and similar Taxes and has
prepared and filed all such Tax Returns.

aggregate amount of all Losses in respect of the Recruiter
Indemnitees are entitled to indemnification under Section 8.02
exceeds $50,000 (based on the Share Consideration Price Per Share)
(the “Basket”),
in which event Onewire and the Onewire Indemnitors shall be
required to forfeit the Holdover Shares for all Losses as if there
was no Basket.

 

(b)       Notwithstanding
anything herein to contrary, except in the case of Fraud, the
liability of Onewire and the Onewire Indemnitors shall be limited
to the Holdback Shares issued under this Agreement or transferred
to the Onewire Indemnitors.

 

(c)       Each
Indemnified Party shall act promptly to avoid or mitigate any
Losses which it or any other Indemnified Party may suffer in
consequence of any fact, matter or circumstance giving rise to a
claim for indemnification under this Agreement or likely to give
rise to a claim for indemnification under this Agreement and no
Indemnified Party shall be entitled to recover under this Agreement
to the extent of any Losses that could have been avoided but for
the Indemnified Party’s failure to avoid or mitigate such
Losses.

 

(d)       Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, the representations, warranties
and covenants of the Indemnifying Parties, and the Indemnified
Party’s right to indemnification with respect thereto, shall
not be affected or deemed waived by reason of any investigation
made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party or by reason of the
fact that the Indemnified Party knew or should have known that any
such representation or warranty is, was or might be inaccurate or
by reason of the Indemnified Party’s waiver of any condition
set forth in Article VII, as the case may be.

Section 8.05 Indemnification
Procedures. The Party making a claim under this
Article VIII is referred to as the “Indemnified Party”, and the Party
against whom such claims are asserted under this Article VIII is
referred to as the “Indemnifying
Party”.

 

(a)       Third
Party Claims. If any Indemnified Party receives notice of
the assertion or commencement of any Action made or brought by any
Person who is not a party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of a
Party to this Agreement or a Representative of the foregoing (a
“Third Party
Claim”) against such Indemnified Party with respect to
which the Indemnifying Party is obligated to provide
indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall
give the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice
thereof, but in any event not later than 10 days after receipt of
such notice of such Third Party Claim. The failure to give such
prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying
Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the
extent that the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced. Such notice by
the Indemnified Party shall describe the Third Party Claim in
reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written
evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if
reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be
sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall
have the right to participate in, or by giving written notice to
the Indemnified Party, to assume the defense of any Third Party
Claim at the Indemnifying Party’s expense and by the
Indemnifying Party’s own counsel, such counsel to be
reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, and the
Indemnified Party shall cooperate in good faith in such defense. In
the event that the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any
Third Party Claim, subject to Section 8.05(b), it shall have the
right to take such action as it deems necessary to avoid, dispute,
defend or appeal any such Third Party Claim in the name and on
behalf of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall have
the right to participate in the defense of any Third Party Claim
with counsel selected by it subject to the Indemnifying
Party’s right to control the defense thereof. The fees and
disbursements of such counsel shall be at the expense of the
Indemnified Party, provided, that if in the reasonable
opinion of counsel to the Indemnified Party, there exists a
conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the
Indemnified Party that cannot be waived; the Indemnifying Party
shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to
the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to
compromise or defend such Third Party Claim, fails to promptly
notify the Indemnified Party in writing of its election to defend
as provided in this Agreement, or fails to diligently prosecute the
defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may,
subject to Section 8.05(b), pay, compromise, defend such Third
Party Claim and seek indemnification for any and all Losses based
upon, arising from or relating to such Third Party Claim. Onewire,
on the one hand, and Recruiter and Newco, on the other hand, shall
cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection
with the defense of any Third Party Claim, including making
available records relating to such Third Party Claim and
furnishing, without expense (other than reimbursement of actual
out-of-pocket expenses) to the defending party, management
employees of the non-defending party as may be reasonably necessary
for the preparation of the defense of such Third Party Claim. In no
event shall the Indemnifying Party also be liable for local counsel
selected at the request of the Indemnified Party. If
indemnification is sought against Onewire or the Onewire
Indemnitors, the Onewire Stakeholders may direct the control of the
Third Party Claim.

 

(b)       Settlement
of Third Party Claims. Notwithstanding any other provision
of this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into
settlement of any Third Party Claim without the prior written
consent of the Indemnified Party, except as provided in this
Section 8.05(b). If a firm offer is made to settle a Third Party
Claim without leading to liability or the creation of a financial
or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party and
provides, in customary form, for the unconditional release of each
Indemnified Party from all liabilities and obligations in
connection with such Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may
settle the Third Party Claim upon the terms set forth in such firm
offer to settle such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnified Party
has assumed the defense pursuant to Section 8.05(a) (including,
without limitation, where the Indemnified Party is defending
pursuant to Section 8.05(a)), it shall not agree to any settlement
without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed).

 

(c)       Direct
Claims. Any Action by an Indemnified Party on account of a
Loss which does not result from a Third Party Claim (a
“Direct Claim”)
shall be asserted by the Indemnified Party giving the Indemnifying
Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event
not later than 30 days after the Indemnified Party becomes aware of
such Direct Claim. The failure to give such prompt written notice
shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its
indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the
Indemnifying Party is prejudiced. Such notice by the Indemnified
Party shall describe the Direct Claim in reasonable detail, shall
include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall
indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the
Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party.
The Indemnifying Party shall have 30 days after its receipt of such
notice to respond in writing to such Direct Claim. The Indemnified
Party shall allow the Indemnifying Party and its professional
advisors to investigate the matter or circumstance alleged to give
rise to the Direct Claim, and whether and to what extent any amount
is payable in respect of the Direct Claim and the Indemnified Party
shall assist the Indemnifying Party’s investigation by giving
such information and assistance (including access to
Onewire’s premises and personnel and the right to examine and
copy any accounts, documents or records) as the Indemnifying Party
or any of its professional advisors may reasonably request. If the
Indemnifying Party does not so respond within such 30 day period,
the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have rejected such claim,
in which case the Indemnified Party shall be free to pursue such
remedies as may be available to the Indemnified Party on the terms
and subject to the provisions of this
Agreement.

Section 8.06 Payments.

 

(a)       Once
a Loss is agreed to by the Indemnifying Party or finally
adjudicated to be payable pursuant to this Article VIII by a
non-appealable judgment issued by a court of competent
jurisdiction, indemnification payments made pursuant to Section
8.02 shall be satisfied as follows: (i) if Newco and Recruiter are
the Indemnifying Parties, at the option of Onewire, either (a)
through the issuance of additional shares of Recruiter Common Stock
based on the Share Consideration Price Per Share, or (b) payment of
funds to cover the Loss, and (ii) if Onewire is the Indemnifying
Party, through the deduction of Holdback Shares based on the Share
Consideration Price Per Share for immediate cancellation by
Newco.

 

(b)       Any
amount payable by Onewire to a Recruiter Indemnitee with respect to
a Loss shall be reduced by the amount of any net insurance proceeds
(i.e., insurance payments less deductible and premiums, including
the amount of any increase in future premiums assessed under such
policies of insurance) actually received by the Recruiter
Indemnitee with respect to the Loss, and Recruiter and Newco agree
to use their reasonable best efforts to collect any insurance
proceeds to which Recruiter and/or Newco may be entitled in respect
of any Loss.

 

Section 8.07 Tax Treatment of Indemnification
Payments. All indemnification payments made under
this Agreement shall be treated by the Parties as an adjustment to
the Purchase Price for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by
Law.

 

Section 8.08 Exclusive Remedy.
Commencing on the Closing Date, this Article VIII shall provide the
sole and exclusive remedy for any and all Losses sustained or
incurred by an Indemnified Party pursuant to this Agreement except
as a result of fraud by an Indemnifying Party; provided, however, that nothing
contained in this Article VIII shall prevent any Party from seeking
equitable remedies (including specific performance and injunctive
relief).

 

Section 8.09 Onewire
Representative.

 

(a)       For
purposes of the Indemnity obligations in this Article VIII, Onewire
and the Onewire Stakeholders hereby appoint Stobie Creek
Investments, LLC ("Stobie Creek"), as agent and attorney-in-fact
for and on behalf of Onewire and the Onewire Stakeholders to give
and receive notices and communications, to authorize payment to any
Indemnified Party in satisfaction of claims by any Indemnified
Party, to object to such payments, to agree to, negotiate, enter
into settlements and compromises of, and initiate actions and
comply with orders of courts with respect to such claims, to
assert, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, and
initiate actions and comply with orders of courts with respect to,
any other claim by any Indemnified Party against Onewire or any
Onewire Stakeholder or by Onewire or any such Onewire Stakeholder
against any Indemnified Party or any dispute between any
Indemnified Party and Onewire or any such Onewire Stakeholder, in
each case relating to this Agreement or the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby, to execute any and all agreements
and certificates contemplated by this Agreement, and to take all
other actions that are necessary or appropriate in the judgment of
Onewire and the Onewire Stakeholders for the accomplishment of the
foregoing or specifically mandated by the terms of this
Agreement.

 

(b)       For
all other purposes of this Agreement and the obligations of Onewire
prior to Closing, Onewire and the Onewire Stakeholders hereby
appoint Eric Stutze, in his capacity as the Onewire Representative,
as agent and attorney-in-fact for and on behalf of Onewire and the
Onewire Stakeholders to give and receive notices and
communications, to execute any and all agreements and certificates
contemplated by this Agreement, and to take all other actions that
are necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Onewire
Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing or
specifically mandated by the terms of this
Agreement.

 

 

42

 

 

(c)       The
Onewire Representative shall not be liable for any act done or
omitted hereunder as Onewire Representative while acting in good
faith and in the exercise of reasonable judgment, even though such
act or omission constitutes negligence on the part of such Onewire
Representative. For the avoidance of any doubt, nothing in this
Section 8.09(b) shall in
any way impact any Liability that the Onewire Representative may
have in his capacity as a stockholder of Onewire. The Onewire
Representative shall only have the duties expressly stated in this
Agreement and shall have no other duty, express or implied. The
Onewire Representative may engage attorneys, accountants and other
professionals and experts. The Onewire Representative may in good
faith rely conclusively upon information, reports, statements and
opinions prepared or presented by such professionals, and any
action taken by the Onewire Representative based on such reliance
shall be deemed conclusively to have been taken in good faith and
in the exercise of reasonable judgment. The Onewire Stakeholders
shall indemnify the Onewire Representative and hold the Onewire
Representative harmless against any Losses incurred without gross
negligence or bad faith on the part of the Onewire Representative
and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or
administration of the Onewire Representative’s duties
hereunder, including the reasonable fees and expenses of any legal
counsel or other professionals and advisors retained by the Onewire
Representative (“Onewire
Representative Expenses”). Following Closing, the
Onewire Representative shall have the right to recover Onewire
Representative Expenses from any deferred payments in accordance
with the terms hereof prior to any distribution to any Onewire
Stakeholder, and prior to any such distribution. Prior to Closing,
a decision, act, consent or instruction of the Onewire
Representative, including an amendment or waiver of any provision
of this Agreement, shall constitute a decision of Onewire and the
Onewire Stakeholders and shall be final, binding and conclusive
upon Onewire and the Stakeholders.

interpretation of this Agreement.

 

Section 10.05 Severability. If any
term or provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or
unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of
this Agreement or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or

the Parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this

failure by Onewire), respectively, only by a written instrument
signed by the Party granting such waiver, but such waiver or

legal suit, Action, or proceeding arising out of or based upon this

has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

 

(c)       Each
Party acknowledges and agrees that any controversy which may arise
under this Agreement or the Ancillary Documents is likely to
involve complicated and difficult issues and, therefore, each such
Party irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right it may have

relating to this Agreement, the Ancillary Documents, or the

Agreement certifies and acknowledges that (A) no representative of

adequate remedy at law and without having to post a bond or other
security.

Fees. In the event that any Party institutes any legal suit,
Action, or proceeding against the other Party(ies) arising out of
or relating to this Agreement, the Ancillary Documents or any of
the transactions contemplated hereunder, the prevailing Party in
the suit, Action or proceeding shall be entitled to receive, in
addition to all other damages to which it may be entitled, the
costs incurred by such Party in conducting the suit, Action, or
proceeding, including attorneys’ fees and expenses and court
costs.

 

(f)       Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall
be deemed an original, but all of which together shall be deemed to
be one and the same agreement. A signed copy of this Agreement

The cash and equity compensation described in this Policy shall be paid or be made, as applicable, automatically and without further action of the Board, to each member of the Board who is not an employee of the Company or any parent or subsidiary of the Company (each, a “Non-Employee Director”). This Policy became effective after the effectiveness of the Company’s Form S-4 Registration Statement and was revised by action of the Board on February 23, 2021. This Policy may be amended, modified or terminated by the Board at any time in its sole discretion. The terms and conditions of this Policy shall supersede any prior cash and/or equity compensation arrangements for service as a member of the Board between the Company and any of its Non-Employee Directors and between any subsidiary of the Company and any of its non-employee directors.

A.Cash Compensation
a.Annual Retainers and Other Fees. Each Non-Employee Director shall receive an annual retainer of $175,000 for service on the Board. A Non-Employee Director serving as a member of the Audit Committee shall receive an additional annual retainer of $25,000 for such service and a Non-Employee Director serving as Chairperson of the Audit Committee shall receive an additional annual retainer of $50,000 for such service. Non-Employee Directors of other committees, if established, shall receive an additional annual retainer of
$15,000 for such service, and the Chairperson of such other committees shall receive an additional annual retainer of $30,000 for such service (collectively, the “Cash Compensation”), payable in cash (subject to Section (B)(2) herein), as compensation for his or her service as a Non-Employee Director.
b.Payment
i.Payment Date. The Cash Compensation will be earned on a quarterly basis based on a calendar quarter and will be paid by the Company in arrears not later than the fifteenth day following the end of each calendar quarter.
ii.Partial Service. In the event a Non-Employee Director does not serve as a Non- Employee Director for an entire calendar quarter (but serves for a portion of the quarter), such Non-Employee Director will receive a prorated portion of the Cash Compensation otherwise payable to him or her for such calendar quarter, with such prorated portion determined by multiplying the Cash Compensation that would otherwise be payable by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days during which the Non-Employee Director serves as a Non-Employee Director during the applicable calendar quarter and the denominator of which is the number of days in the applicable calendar quarter.
iii.Share Settlement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section B, the Company may offer the Non-Employee Directors the right to elect to receive the Cash Compensation in the form of fully vested shares of Class A common stock, par value
$0.0001 per share of the Company (“Common Stock”). Such election must be made in writing prior to the date on which the Cash Compensation is required to be paid hereunder. The number of shares of Common Stock that may be delivered in satisfaction of the Cash Compensation shall be determined based on the closing price per share of the Common Stock on the last day of the calendar quarter for which the Cash Compensation is payable, or if such date was not a trading day, based on the last preceding trading day for which such price per share exists, as reported on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

B.Equity Compensation
a.Initial Grant. Except as otherwise determined by the Board, each Non-Employee Director who is initially elected or appointed to the Board, shall receive an award of 10,000 restricted stock units (“RSUs”), each of which represents the right to receive one share of Common Stock, subject to vesting and other provisions set forth in the grant agreement. The awards described in this Section Error! Reference source not found. shall be referred to as “Initial Awards.” (For the avoidance of doubt, no Non- Employee Director shall be granted more than one Initial Award.) Each Initial Award shall be granted on the date of such Non-Employee Director’s initial election or appointment to the Board (such Non-Employee Director’s “Start Date”) or such later date if necessary to comply with applicable securities laws. The Initial Award shall vest on the first anniversary of the Start Date, subject to the Non-Employee Director continuing in service on the Board through such date. In the event of a Non-Employee Director’s cessation of service due to death or disability (as determined in good faith by the Board), the RSUs subject to an Initial Award will become fully vested as of the date of such cessation of service. In the event of a Non-Employee Director’s continued service through the date of a Change of Control, the RSUs subject to an Initial Award will become fully vested as of the date of the Change of Control. The Initial Award shall not apply towards the Director Limit (as defined in the Equity Plan) (as defined below). Each Non-Employee Director may elect to defer settlement of all or part of the Initial Award by executing a valid deferral election in a manner that is consistent with the requirements of Treas. Reg. 1.409A-2 and in accordance with any deferral plan, policy or arrangement established by the Company.
b.Election to Receive Deferred Equity in Lieu of Cash Compensation. Notwithstanding Section A, Non-Employee Directors may elect, in accordance with Section (B)(2)(a) or in accordance with any other deferral program to be adopted by the Board, that an amount equal to all or a portion of the Cash Compensation be paid in the form of deferred RSUs in accordance with Section (B)(2)(d). (All equity awards, including the Initial Awards, that Non-Employee Directors may receive as compensation for their service on the Board from time to time pursuant to this Policy are referred to collectively herein as “Equity Compensation”.)
i.Elections; Notification Requirements. If a Non-Employee Director desires to receive all or a portion of his or her Cash Compensation in the form of deferred RSUs, such Non-Employee Director must make an election (an “Equity Election”) by delivering an election form to Chief Human Resources Officer of the Company which designates the portion of the Cash Compensation that the Non-Employee Director desires to receive in the form of deferred RSUs. Any initial Equity Election must be made not later than December 31 of the calendar year immediately preceding the calendar year of service. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any newly- appointed or elected Non-Employee Director may make an Equity Election no later than thirty days after such Non-Employee Director first becomes eligible to participate in this Policy, and such Equity Election may only be made with respect to Cash Compensation payable for services to be performed during or after the period commencing on the first day of the first full calendar quarter immediately following the date of such Equity Election. Once an Equity Election is made, it may be revoked and changed only for future years. Each Equity Election will carry over to Cash Compensation in subsequent plan years unless and until terminated. Any Equity Election must satisfy the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended (the “Code”), to the extent applicable.
ii.Grant Date. With respect to the Cash Compensation that the Non-Employee Director elects to receive in the form of deferred RSUs, the date of grant of the deferred RSUs will be the last business day of each calendar quarter, subject to the Non-Employee Director’s continued service through such day.
iii.Number of Deferred RSUs. The number of deferred RSUs awarded to a Non- Employee Director will be determined by dividing (i) the applicable portion of the Cash Compensation that the Non-Employee Director elects to receive in the form of deferred RSUs by (ii) the closing price per share of the Common Stock on the date of grant, or on the last preceding trading day for which 

such price for share exists, if such date was not a trading day, as reported on the Nasdaq Capital Market. If a Non-Employee Director does not serve as a Non-Employee Director for an entire calendar quarter (but serves for a portion of the quarter), such Non-Employee Director will receive a prorated portion of the deferred RSUs to be granted to such Non-Employee Director with respect to such quarter, on the same grant date described above, with such prorated portion of RSUs determined by multiplying the Annual Cash Award Value that the Non-Employee Director has elected to defer by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days during which the Non- Employee Director serves as a Non-Employee Director during the applicable calendar quarter and the denominator of which is the number of days in the applicable calendar quarter.
iv.Share Delivery. The shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the Deferred RSUs will be delivered on the earlier of (i) the day immediately preceding the date of the first annual meeting of the Company’s stockholders (an “Annual Meeting”) following the date of grant that is at least 50 weeks from the date of grant, (ii) the first anniversary of the date of grant, the Non-Employee Director’s cessation of service due to death or disability (as determined in good faith by the Board), the Non-Employee Director’s continued service through the date of a Change of Control, the date of the Non-Employee Directors’ “separation of service,” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code, or any later fixed date that is permitted by the Company and that complies with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code.
c.Settlement. All RSUs subject to an Initial Award will be settled in the form of shares of Common Stock no later than 15 days following the vesting date and all deferred RSUs shall be settled in the form of shares of Common Stock no later than 15 days following the applicable delivery date selected by the Non-Employee Director in the applicable deferral election form.
d.General Provisions Applicable to RSUs
i.RSU Account. The Company will maintain, or cause its equity plan administrator to maintain, a separate bookkeeping account to reflect the RSUs issued to each Non-Employee Director.
ii.Fractional Shares. Only whole shares will be issued in settlement of RSUs; fractional shares will be eliminated by rounding up to the next whole number.
iii.Voting Rights. Non-Employee Directors will have no voting rights with respect to RSUs.
iv.Company Equity Plan Applies. All Equity Compensation will be granted under and subject to the terms and provisions of the Company’s 2020 Incentive Award Plan or any other applicable Company equity incentive plan then-maintained by the Company (the “Equity Plan”). All applicable terms of the Equity Plan apply to this Policy as if fully set forth herein, and all awards of Equity Compensation hereunder are subject in all respects to the terms of the Equity Plan.
C.General
a.Unfunded Obligation. This Policy is designed and will be administered at all times as an unfunded arrangement, and each Non-Employee Director will be treated as an unsecured general creditor and will have no beneficial ownership of any assets of the Company.
b.Taxes. Non-Employee Directors will be solely responsible for any federal, state or other taxes imposed in connection with Cash Compensation and Equity Compensation, and each Non-Employee Director authorizes the Company or any of its subsidiaries to make any withholding for taxes which the Company or any subsidiary deems, in their sole discretion, necessary or desirable in connection therewith.
c.Amendments; Etc. This Policy may be amended, modified or terminated by the Board at any time in its sole discretion. To the extent that the Company’s Annual Meeting schedule is materially changed from the schedule in effect on the Effective Date, this Policy may be equitably adjusted by the Company in connection with such change.

d.Governing Law. This Policy and any agreements or documents hereunder will be administered, construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to conflicts of laws thereof.
