The Initial Merger Consideration and any adjustment to the Initial Merger Consideration necessitated by Section 2.13 (the “Net Balance Sheet Adjustment”) shall collectively be referred to as the “Aggregate Merger Consideration”. Each share of Company Preferred Stock and Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (excluding Dissenting Shares (as defined below), treasury stock and those owned by any wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company) and all right in respect thereof shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall forthwith cease to exist, and each holder of a certificate which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented any such shares of Company Preferred Stock or Company Common Stock shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive a portion of the Aggregate Merger Consideration as provided in Sections 2.04(c) and 2.04(d) below.
 
(b) Merger Sub Common Stock. At the Effective Time and on the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, each share of Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, or the Company, be converted into one (1) validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation, with the same rights, powers and privileges as the shares so converted and shall constitute the only outstanding shares of capital stock of the Surviving Corporation as of the Effective Time. Each stock certificate of Merger Sub evidencing ownership of any such shares shall remain outstanding and evidence ownership of shares of Surviving Corporation Common Stock.
 
(c) Company Preferred Stock. At the Effective Time and on the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, (A) each share of Series A Preferred Stock of the Company issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Dissenting Shares) shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, or the Company, be converted into the right to receive a portion of the Aggregate Merger Consideration as set forth in the Merger Consideration Allocation Certificate (as defined below); (B) each share of Series A-1 Preferred Stock of the Company issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Dissenting Shares) shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, or the Company, be converted into the right to receive a portion of the Aggregate Merger Consideration as set forth in the Merger Consideration Allocation Certificate; and (C) each share of Series A-2 Preferred Stock of the Company issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Dissenting Shares) shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub or the Company, be converted into the right to receive a portion of the Aggregate Merger Consideration set forth in the Merger Consideration Allocation Certificate.
 
13

(d) Company Common Stock. At the Effective Time and on the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Dissenting Shares) shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, or the Company, be cancelled and shall be converted into the right to receive a portion of the Aggregate Merger Consideration as set forth in the Merger Consideration Allocation Certificate.
 
(e) Company Options. At the Effective Time, each vested and unvested option to purchase shares of Company Common Stock under any Company Option Plan (the “Company Options”) which is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than the options set forth on Schedule II, which shall be exercised immediately prior thereto, shall be assumed by Parent, and the Company Options shall be converted into an option to purchase shares of Parent Common Stock in such number and at such exercise price as provided below and otherwise having the same terms and conditions as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time (except to the extent that such terms, conditions and restrictions may be altered in accordance with their terms as a result of the Merger contemplated hereby and except that all references in each such Company Option to Company shall be deemed to refer to Parent):
 
(i) the number of shares of Parent Common Stock to be subject to the new option shall be equal to the product of (x) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to the original Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time and (y) the Exchange Ratio;
 
(ii) the exercise price per share of Parent Common Stock under the new option shall be equal to (x) the exercise price per share of Company Common Stock in effect under the original Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time divided by (y) the Exchange Ratio; and
 
(iii) in effecting such assumption and conversion, the aggregate number of shares of Parent Common Stock to be subject to each assumed Company Option will be rounded down, if necessary, to the next whole share and the aggregate exercise price shall be rounded up, if necessary, to the next whole cent.
 
 
The aggregate number of shares underlying the options to purchase Parent Common Stock issuable pursuant to this Section 2.04(e) shall represent a portion of the Stock Merger Consideration.
 
 
Any adjustments provided herein with respect to options shall be effected in a manner consistent with applicable law and, to the extent applicable, that maintains any intended favorable tax treatment relating to such options that existed prior to such adjustment. The assumption of the outstanding Company Options in the Merger and their conversion into options for Parent Common Stock will not result in any accelerated vesting of those options or the shares purchasable thereunder, and the vesting schedule in effect for each Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time (after giving effect to the acceleration provisions contained in the agreements identified in Sections 3.09(c)(1) and (2) of the Company Disclosure Schedule) shall remain in full force after the assumption thereof by Parent.
 
14

(f) Treasury Stock. At the Effective Time, each share of Company Preferred Stock and Company Common Stock held by the Company in its treasury shall be cancelled and extinguished without any conversion thereof.
 
(g) Company Capitalization Schedules. On the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to Parent and Merger Sub separate schedules reflecting (i) a true and complete list of record holders of the issued and outstanding Company Preferred Stock, including the number of shares of each series of Company Preferred Stock held by such record holders, (ii) a true and complete list of record holders of the issued and outstanding Company Common Stock, including the number of shares of Company Common Stock held by such record holders, and (iii) a true and complete list of record holders of the Company Options, including the number of options held by such optionholders, as well as the grant dates, vesting schedules and strike prices of all outstanding options. Prior to the Parent making payment of the Merger Consideration, the Company shall execute and deliver to Parent a certificate setting forth the good faith calculation of the Company of the Per Share Merger Consideration and the aggregate Per Share Merger Consideration payable to each of the holders of Company Preferred Stock, Company Common Stock and Company Options (after giving effect to the provisions of Sections 2.05(a)(i) and (ii) hereof) (the “Merger Consideration Allocation Certificate”). The Merger Consideration Allocation Certificate shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty of the Company hereunder. In no event shall Parent be required to transfer the Merger Consideration unless and until the Merger Consideration Allocation Certificate has been executed and delivered by the Company and approved by Parent. Parent shall be entitled to rely entirely upon the Merger Consideration Allocation Certificate in connection with making payment of the Merger Consideration and no holder of Company Preferred Stock, Company Common Stock or Company Options shall be entitled to make any claim in respect of the allocation of the Merger Consideration made by Parent to or for the benefit of any holder of Company Preferred Stock, Company Common Stock or Company Options to the extent that the payment is made in a manner consistent with the Merger Consideration Allocation Certificate.
 
(h) Maximum Consideration to be Paid. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, but subject, if any, to (i) the adjustment provided for in Section 2.13 hereof, (ii) the indemnification obligations of Parent contained in Article VIII and (iii) the provisions of Section 2.06 hereof, in no event shall Parent, Merger Sub or any Affiliate of Parent be required to pay any amount in excess of the Aggregate Merger Consideration. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event of any breach of the representations and warranties of the Company set forth in Sections 2.04(g) and 3.03 of this Agreement, whether such breach is as a result of any misstatement or omission in respect of the information set forth in Section 3.03 of the Company Disclosure Schedule or otherwise, the portion of the Aggregate Merger Consideration to be paid to each such holder under this Agreement shall be automatically equitably adjusted to accurately reflect the capitalization of the Company as of the Effective Time.
 
15

(i) Tax Treatment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Cash Merger Consideration is less than or equal to 20% of the value (determined under U.S. federal income tax principles) of the Initial Merger Consideration or the Aggregate Merger Consideration, the Parent may, in its sole discretion, increase the Cash Merger Consideration with a corresponding decrease to the Stock Merger Consideration if the Parent concludes that such adjustment is appropriate in order for the Merger to be treated as a taxable stock purchase for U.S. federal income tax purposes. For these purposes, any reduction in the number of shares issued as Stock Merger Consideration shall increase the Cash Merger Consideration using a valuation for the reduced number of shares equal to the Closing Price times the number of shares so reduced, provided, that the Closing Price shall not be less than $6.52 .
 
SECTION 2.05. Exchange Procedures.
 
(a) The functions of making various payments required under this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement including, without limitation, the payment of the Stock Merger Consideration and Cash Merger Consideration in exchange for Certificates, shall be effectuated by a paying agent (the “Paying Agent”). The Paying Agent shall initially be ESOP Trust Company (“ESOP Trust Company”), provided, however, if in the reasonable judgment of the Stockholders’ Representative ESOP Trust Company is not able to satisfactorily fulfill its obligations as the Paying Agent or the Parent and the Stockholders’ Representative are unable to reach an agreement with ESOP Trust Company upon reasonable and customary terms reasonably acceptable to both the Parent and the Stockholders’ Representative, then the Stockholders’ Representative may select a different trust company at any time during the term of this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement, which replacement Paying Agent shall be reasonably acceptable to the Parent.
 
On the Closing Date, the Parent shall deliver to the Paying Agent, in trust for the benefit of the Stockholders, the Stock Merger Consideration and the Cash Merger Consideration minus (X) the Stock Escrow Amount, which shall be delivered to the Escrow Agent, and minus (Y) the Cash Escrow Amount, which shall be delivered to the Escrow Agent.
 
Immediately following the Closing, the Paying Agent shall use a portion of the Cash Merger Consideration to pay:
 
(i) any cash payments mutually agreed upon by the Parent and the Stockholders’ Representative; and
 
(ii) certain bonuses to current or former employees of the Company, in accordance with a schedule previously provided by the Company to the Parent (provided, however, that any material changes from such schedule shall be reasonably acceptable to the Parent), in an amount aggregating 10% of the difference between (X) the Cash Merger Consideration and (Y) the sum of the Cash Escrow Amount and any payments referred to in Section 2.05(a)(i), which shall be paid either by the Paying Agent or the Company, in the discretion of the Company.
 
16

In addition, on the Escrow Fund Distribution Date (as defined in the Escrow Agreement), the Escrow Agent shall remit to the Paying Agent 10% of the amount ultimately released from the Cash Escrow Amount, for payment of bonuses to certain current or former employees of the Company, pursuant to a schedule prepared by the Stockholders’ Representative and which shall be substantially consistent with a schedule previously provided by the Company to the Parent, provided, however, that any material changes from such schedule shall be reasonably acceptable to the Parent.
 
As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time (but in no event later than 5 days following the Effective Time) and after the receipt by the Paying Agent of the Merger Consideration Allocation Certificate, the Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to mail (i) to each holder of a certificate or certificates which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding shares of Company Preferred Stock or Company Common Stock (the “Certificates”) (A) a letter of transmittal, in customary form, which shall specify that delivery shall be effective only upon delivery of the Certificates to Paying Agent and that risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall remain with the Stockholder until such delivery, and (B) instructions for effecting the surrender of such Certificates in exchange for a portion of the Aggregate Merger Consideration. Upon surrender of a Certificate and a letter of transmittal (or other documentation in compliance with Section 2.08 hereof), as applicable, to the Paying Agent together, with respect to holders of Certificates, with such letter of transmittal, duly executed and completed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other documents as may reasonably be required by the Paying Agent, the stockholder delivering such documents shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor (A) its respective portion of the Aggregate Merger Consideration (subject to the provisions of Sections 2.05(a)(i) and (ii), and Article VIII hereof), less the portion of the Aggregate Merger Consideration allocable to such stockholder that has been deposited in the Cash Escrow Amount and Stock Escrow Amount pursuant to Section 8.06, subject to the provisions of Sections 2.05(a)(i) and (ii) hereof, and (B) cash in lieu of fractional shares of Parent Common Stock pursuant to Section 2.07. No later than 5 Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Parent shall deliver the form of letter of transmittal to the Company and the Stockholders’ Representative and prior to the Closing shall make such changes to the form as either shall reasonably request. The final form of letter of transmittal shall be in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company and the Stockholders’ Representative. If requested by the Stockholders’ Representative, the Paying Agent shall promptly provide the Stockholders’ Representative with copies of the executed letters of transmittal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the foregoing exchange procedures shall comply with such procedures as may be required by the Israeli Withholding Tax Ruling, if obtained, and shall permit Parent or the Paying Agent (after consultation with the Company) to require holders of Certificates to provide any declarations, information and/or certificates of exemption (or reduced withholding rates) (x) that are reasonably necessary to comply with the Israeli Withholding Tax Ruling, if obtained, or (y) that Parent or the Paying Agent reasonably believes are necessary in order for it to determine whether Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent is subject to any withholding requirements with respect to payments made to any particular Stockholder.
 
(b) If the Stock Merger Consideration and Cash Merger Consideration (or any portion thereof) is to be delivered to any Person other than the Person in whose name the Certificate formerly representing shares of Company Capital Stock surrendered therefor is registered, it shall be a condition to the right of such Person, other than the registered holder of a Certificate, to receive the Stock Merger Consideration and the Cash Merger Consideration payable with respect to such Certificate that (i) the Certificate be properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer and (ii) the Person surrendering such Certificate shall pay any transfer or other Taxes required by reason of the receipt of the Stock Merger Consideration and the Cash Merger Consideration to a Person other than such registered holder or shall establish to the reasonable satisfaction of Parent and the Paying Agent that such Tax has been paid or is not applicable.
 
17

SECTION 2.06. Appraisal Rights. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, any issued and outstanding shares of Company Preferred Stock or Company Common Stock held by persons who have exercised and perfected appraisal rights for such shares of Company Preferred Stock or Company Common Stock, as applicable, in accordance with applicable Law (“Dissenting Shares”) and as of the Effective Time have neither effectively withdrawn nor lost any right to such appraisal, shall not be converted into or represent a right to receive the Aggregate Merger Consideration payable under this Article II attributable to such Dissenting Shares. Such stockholders shall be entitled to receive payment of the appraised value of such shares of Company Preferred Stock or Company Common Stock held by them in accordance with applicable Law, unless and until such stockholders fail to perfect, effectively withdraw or otherwise lose their appraisal rights under applicable Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any dissenting stockholder shall effectively withdraw or lose (through failure to perfect or otherwise) the right to appraisal, then as of the Effective Time or the occurrence of such event, whichever occurs later, such Dissenting Shares shall automatically be converted into and represent only the right to receive the Aggregate Merger Consideration and any other amounts payable under this Article II, without interest thereon, upon surrender of the Certificate or Certificates representing such Dissenting Shares in accordance with Section 2.05. The Company shall provide Parent notice, promptly after the Company’s receipt thereof, of any written demands for appraisal or payment of the fair value of any shares of Company Preferred Stock or Company Common Stock, as applicable, the withdrawal of such demands and any other related instruments served pursuant to applicable Law.
 
SECTION 2.07.  Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Parent Common Stock will be issued pursuant to this Agreement, but in lieu thereof each holder of Company Preferred Stock or Company Common Stock who would otherwise be entitled to a fractional share of Parent Common Stock hereunder (after aggregating all fractional shares of Parent Common Stock to be received by such holder) shall receive from Parent an amount of cash (rounded to the nearest whole cent) equal to the product of (a) such fractional share multiplied by (b) the Closing Price, less the amount of any withholding taxes which may be required thereon.
 
SECTION 2.08. Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by Parent or the Paying Agent, an agreement to indemnify against any claim that may be made against the Paying Agent Parent or the Surviving Corporation with respect to such Certificate, the Paying Agent will deliver in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the portion of the Aggregate Merger Consideration and any other amounts payable under this Article II with respect to the Company Preferred Stock or Company Common Stock formerly represented thereby.
 
18

SECTION 2.09. Withholding Rights. Each of the Surviving Corporation, the Paying Agent, the Escrow Agent and Parent shall be entitled, with respect to payments made by each such entity, to deduct and withhold from the Aggregate Merger Consideration and any other amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Israeli Withholding Tax Ruling, if obtained, the Code, the Israeli Tax Code, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder or under any applicable Law, provided that no withholding under Israeli Tax law will be made from any consideration payable hereunder to a holder of Company Preferred Stock or Company Common Stock to the extent that such stockholder has provided Parent or the Paying Agent with an appropriate unequivocal exemption or confirmation of a reduced withholding rate issued by the ITA or such other document, opinion or form which, in the sole discretion of Parent, is sufficient to enable Parent or the Paying Agent to reasonably conclude that no withholding or a reduced rate of withholding, as applicable, of Israeli Tax is required with respect to the particular holder of Company Preferred Stock or Company Common Stock in question, prior to the time such payment is made. Upon delivery of the Aggregate Merger Consideration, Parent or the Paying Agent shall deliver to the Stockholders’ Representative a statement of all amounts so withheld. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by the Surviving Corporation, Parent or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the stockholders or optionholders of the Company, as the case may be, in respect to which such deduction and withholding was made by the Surviving Corporation or Parent, as the case may be. Any amounts deducted and withheld pursuant to this Section 2.09 shall be remitted to the appropriate Taxing authority in accordance with applicable Law.

SECTION 2.13. Net Balance Sheet Adjustment. 
 
(a) Within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, Parent shall deliver to the Stockholders’ Representative a Closing Date Balance Sheet of the Company (the “Closing Date Balance Sheet”) prepared as of the Closing Date, in accordance with U.S. GAAP, consistently applied and on a basis consistent with the accounting practices and policies used to prepare the audited consolidated balance sheet of the Company at December 31, 2006. The Closing Date Balance Sheet shall be prepared by the Company’s external auditor as of the date hereof (Ernst & Young LLP) unless Parent elects to use another accounting firm, in which case Parent will be required to pay the fees and disbursements charged by that other accounting firm. The Stockholders’ Representative shall cooperate with the Parent in the preparation of the Closing Date Balance Sheet, including but not limited to providing access to any appropriate work papers or to the Company’s accountants and auditors. In addition, the Company shall deliver a certificate (the “Net Working Capital Certificate”) to the Stockholders’ Representative calculating the amount of Net Working Capital as of the Closing Date.
 
(b) The Stockholders’ Representative shall deliver to the Parent within thirty (30) days after receiving the Closing Date Balance Sheet a reasonably detailed statement describing all of its objections (if any) thereto and sufficient details describing the basis therefor. Failure of the Stockholders’ Representative to so object to the Closing Date Balance Sheet within such 30-day period shall constitute acceptance thereof, whereupon such Closing Date Balance Sheet shall be deemed to be the “Final Closing Balance Sheet” for purposes of this Agreement. If the Stockholders’ Representative does submit to Parent a statement of objections to the Closing Date Balance Sheet within such 30-day period, the Parent and the Stockholders’ Representative shall use reasonable efforts to resolve any such objections, but if they do not reach a final resolution within thirty (30) days after Parent has received the statement of objections from the Stockholders’ Representative, Parent and the Stockholders’ Representative shall select a nationally-recognized independent accounting firm, other than the respective regular independent accounting firms of Parent and the Company, mutually acceptable to them (the “Accounting Referee”) to resolve any remaining objections. If Parent and the Stockholders’ Representative are unable to agree on the choice of Accounting Referee, they shall select as Accounting Referee an internationally-recognized accounting firm by lot (after excluding their respective regular independent accounting firms). Parent and the Stockholders’ Representative shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Accounting Referee to resolve, within sixty (60) days after appointment of the Accounting Referee, the matters on the Closing Date Balance Sheet which are the subject of dispute between Parent and the Stockholders’ Representative, and the Closing Date Balance Sheet shall be adjusted in accordance with the Accounting Referee’ determination and, as so adjusted, shall be the “Final Closing Balance Sheet” for purposes of this Agreement. Such determination by the Accounting Referee shall be conclusive and binding upon Parent and the Stockholders’ Representative. Parent and the Stockholders’ Representative shall share equally the fees and expenses of the Accounting Referee. The Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall make such information, personnel and resources available to the Stockholders’ Representative as may be reasonably necessary to enable the Stockholders’ Representative to review the Closing Date Balance Sheet; provided that the obligation of the Parent and the Surviving Corporation to provide such information, personnel and resources shall be limited to normal business hours with reasonable prior notice and in such a manner so as not to interfere unreasonably with the conduct of their business.
 
20

(c) If the amount of Net Working Capital, as set forth in the Final Closing Balance Sheet, is less than $0.00, then the Initial Merger Consideration shall be reduced by the amount by which the Net Working Capital is less than $0.00; provided; however, that the Parent may not make a claim for such reduction unless the aggregate amount by which the Net Working Capital is less than $0.00 equals $500,000 or greater, in which case the Parent shall have the right to a reduction of the full amount by which the Net Working Capital is less than $0.00, which amount shall be remitted by the Escrow Agent back to Parent pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement.
 
(d) If the amount of Net Working Capital, as set forth in the Final Closing Balance Sheet, is greater than $0.00, then the Initial Merger Consideration shall be increased by the amount by which the Net Working Capital exceeds $0.00; provided; however, that the Stockholders’ Representative may not make a claim for such increase unless the aggregate amount by which the Net Working Capital exceeds $0.00 equals $500,000 or greater, in which case the Stockholders shall have the right to an increase of the full amount by which the Net Working Capital exceeds $0.00, which amount shall be paid by the Parent or the Surviving Corporation to the Paying Agent (for distribution to the Stockholders).
 
SECTION 2.14. Other Provisions Relating to Parent Common Stock. Except as otherwise permitted pursuant to the terms of Section 2.14(c) below, the shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued to the Principal Stockholders pursuant to this Agreement are subject to the provisions of a trading restriction agreement in favor of Parent substantially in the form of Exhibit E hereto (the “Trading Restriction Agreements”) to be signed by each Principal Stockholder as set forth below in clauses (a) - (c) below. The Trading Restriction Agreements shall be administered by a trading restriction administrator (the “Trading Restriction Administrator”). The Trading Restriction Administrator shall initially be ESOP-EXCELLENCE, an affiliate of ESOP Trust Company (“ESOP-EXCELLENCE”), provided, however, if in the reasonable judgment of the Stockholders’ Representative ESOP-EXCELLENCE is not able to satisfactorily fulfill its obligations as the Trading Restriction Administrator or the Parent and the Stockholders’ Representative are unable to reach an agreement with ESOP-EXCELLENCE upon reasonable and customary terms reasonably acceptable to both the Parent and the Stockholders’ Representative, then the Parent may select a different brokerage firm at any time during the term of the Trading Restriction Agreements, which replacement Trading Restriction Administrator shall be reasonably acceptable to the Stockholders’ Representative. 
 
(a) One Trading Restriction Agreement shall be executed by the Principal Stockholders identified in Schedule I as Group 1 and such stockholders, collectively, shall be bound by the volume limitations provided therein, such Trading Restriction Agreement to govern the sales of Parent Common Stock by the members of Group 1 for the period commencing on the Initial Release Date and ending on the date three years after the Initial Release Date;

it being understood that sales of Parent shares by Stockholders of any Group shall not be taken into account for purposes of the volume limitations applicable to any other Group.

46

SECTION 5.03. Access to Information; Confidentiality.
 
(a) Except as required pursuant to any confidentiality agreement or similar agreement or arrangement to which the Parent or the Company is a party or pursuant to applicable Law or the regulations or requirements of any stock exchange or other regulatory organization with whose rules a party hereto is required to comply, from the date of this Agreement to the Closing Date, the Parent and the Company shall (i) provide to the other (and its officers, directors, employees, accountants, consultants, legal counsel, agents and other representatives (collectively, “Representatives”)) access at reasonable times upon reasonable prior notice to its officers, employees, agents, properties, offices and other facilities and to the books and records thereof, and (ii) furnish reasonably promptly such information concerning its business, properties, contracts, assets, liabilities and personnel as the other party or its Representatives may reasonably request.

SECTION 5.04. No Solicitation of Transactions. Until the earlier of termination of this Agreement or the Closing Date, subject to applicable fiduciary duties, the Company shall not, directly or indirectly, and shall cause the Company’s Representatives not to, directly or indirectly, solicit, initiate or encourage (including by way of furnishing nonpublic information), any inquiries or the making of any proposal or offer (including, without limitation, any proposal or offer to the Stockholders) that constitutes, or may reasonably be expected to lead to, any Competing Transaction, or enter into or maintain or continue discussions or negotiate with any Person in furtherance of such inquiries or to obtain a Competing Transaction, or agree to or endorse any Competing Transaction, or authorize or permit any of the Company’s Representatives to take any such action.

47

SECTION 5.05. Further Action; Consents; Filings.
 
(a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, each of the parties hereto shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) take, or cause to be taken, all appropriate action, and do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Law or otherwise to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) obtain from Governmental Entities any consents, licenses, permits, waivers, approvals, authorizations or orders required to be obtained or made by the Parent or the Company in connection with the authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and (iii) make all necessary filings, and thereafter make any other required or appropriate submissions, with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby required under any applicable Laws. The parties hereto shall cooperate and consult with each other in connection with the making of all such filings.
 
(b) Each of the Company and the Parent will give any notices to third Persons, and use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any consents from third Persons necessary, proper or advisable (as determined in good faith by the Parent with respect to such notices or consents to be delivered or obtained by the Company) to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
 
SECTION 5.06. Certain Tax Matters.
 
(a) Transfer Taxes. All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other such Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with this Agreement, shall be paid by the Stockholders when due, and the Stockholders will, at their own expense, file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all such transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other Taxes and fees, and, if required by applicable law, the Parent will, and will cause its Affiliates to, join in the execution of any such Tax Returns and other documentation.
 
48

(b) Tax Returns. Except to the extent inconsistent with the second sentence of Section 5.06(d), the Parent shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed all Tax Returns for the Company and the Company Subsidiary for Taxable periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date and for Taxable periods beginning before the Closing Date and ending after the Closing Date (“Straddle Returns”) which are filed after the Closing Date. Except with respect to Taxes relating to the U.S. Withholding Liability, the parties agree that the Escrow Agent shall pay to the Parent first from the Cash Escrow Amount, and second, if no amount remains in the Cash Escrow Amount, from the Stock Escrow Amount (subject to, and in accordance with, the provisions of Article VIII and the Escrow Agreement), an amount equal to (A) all Taxes shown on such Tax Returns for taxable periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date; and (B) the portion of such Taxes shown on Straddle Returns which relates to the portion of such Taxable period ending on the Closing Date, in each case only to the extent such Taxes are not reflected in the reserve for Tax liability (rather than any reserve for deferred Taxes established to reflect timing differences between book and Tax income) on the Final Closing Balance Sheet (as finally determined). For purposes of this Section, in the case of any Taxes that are imposed on a periodic basis and are payable for a Taxable period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date, the portion of such Tax which relates to the portion of such Taxable period ending on the Closing Date shall (x) in the case of any Taxes other than Taxes based upon or related to income or receipts, be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire Taxable period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the Taxable period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire Taxable period, and (y) in the case of any Tax based upon or related to income or receipts be deemed equal to the amount which would be payable if the relevant Taxable period ended on the Closing Date. All determinations necessary to give effect to the foregoing allocations shall be made in a manner consistent with prior practice of the Company and the Company Subsidiary. The Parent shall permit the Stockholders’ Representative, at its expense, an opportunity to review and make reasonable comment on any Tax Returns prepared pursuant to this Section 5.06(b) prior to filing if the payment of the Tax shown as due and payable on such Tax Return would give rise to an indemnification obligation by the Stockholders pursuant to Article VIII. The Parent agrees to consider reasonable comments provided by the Stockholders’ Representative to Parent within seven (7) days after receipt of such draft or pro forma Tax Return. If the Parent does not accept a reasonable comment, the Stockholders’ Representative may dispute such decision as part of any determination of the Stockholders’ obligation to indemnity the Parent for the Taxes to which such reasonable comments related; provided, however, that Parent shall not be required to delay, or cause to be delayed, the filing of such Tax Return pending resolution of such dispute.
 
(c) Tax Sharing Agreements. All tax sharing agreements or similar agreements with respect to or involving the Company or the Company Subsidiary shall be terminated as of the Closing Date and, after the Closing Date, neither the Company nor the Company Subsidiary shall be bound thereby or have any liability thereunder.
 
49

(d) Tax Contests; U.S. Withholding Liability. The Parent shall have the right to control any claim, contest or assessment relating to Taxes and may settle such claim in its sole and absolute discretion; provided, however, that no claim that would give rise to an indemnification obligation for Taxes by the Stockholders pursuant to Article VIII shall be settled without the consent of the Stockholders’ Representative, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the prior sentence, with respect to the resolution of the U.S. Withholding Liability, the Stockholders’ Representative shall be permitted, to the extent reasonably practicable under the circumstances, to control the choice of the Company’s counsel and, subject to the conditions of this Section 5.06(d), to be principally responsible (through counsel) for all discussions with and/or written submissions to the IRS (it being understood that following the Closing, the Surviving Corporation shall pay the fees of such counsel but shall be reimbursed as set forth in Section 3(l) of the Escrow Agreement); provided, however, that (a) Parent shall have the right to participate fully in preparing, formulating, conducting or submitting any communications to the IRS, (b) no substantive discussion or written submission shall be made without the prior written consent of the Parent, (c) the U.S. Withholding Liability may not be settled or otherwise resolved or compromised without the prior written consent of the Parent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, and (d) if the Stockholders’ Representative has assumed control of the discussions with and/or written submissions to the IRS, the Stockholders’ Representative shall be required to use its best efforts to resolve the U.S. Withholding Liability expediently and in accordance with Section 3(i) of the Escrow Agreement. If the Stockholders’ Representative (or counsel chosen by the Stockholders’ Representative to represent the Company and Company Subsidiary) fails to comply with any of the foregoing conditions, all control and responsibility for resolving the U.S. Withholding Liability shall revert to the Parent. With respect to Taxes relating to the U.S. Withholding Liability, the parties agree that the Escrow Agent shall pay to the Parent first from the Cash Escrow Amount, and second, if no amount remains in the Cash Escrow Amount, from the Stock Escrow Amount (subject to, and in accordance with, the provisions of Article VIII and Section 3 of the Escrow Agreement), an amount equal to the amount specified in Section 3(i)(B) of the Escrow Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.06(d), with respect to the resolution of the U.S. Withholding Liability, any legal expenses incurred by the Company (prior to the Effective Time) or by the Surviving Corporation (following the Effective Time) shall be reimbursed in accordance with, and to the extent provided in, the provisions of Section 3(l) of the Escrow Agreement.
 
SECTION 5.07. Israeli Tax Rulings. As soon as reasonably practicable after the execution of this Agreement, the Company Subsidiary shall cause its Israeli counsel and/or Israeli consultants to prepare and file with the ITA one or more applications, or, in the case of applications that have previously been filed, to continue to use its best efforts to diligently pursue in good faith the receipt from the ITA of one or more rulings that:
 
(a) confirm that (A) the payment of consideration pursuant to Section 2.04(e) for Company Options subject to the statutory holding period for Section 102 Plans will not result in a requirement for an immediate Israeli tax payment and that the Israeli taxation will be deferred until completion of such statutory holding period and release of the cash consideration, as applicable; and (B) that the statutory holding period under any grants under Section 102 Plans will continue uninterrupted from the original date of grant and will not recommence as a result of the transactions contemplated herein (which ruling may be subject to customary conditions regularly associated with such a ruling) (the “Israeli Options Tax Ruling”);
 
(b)  (A) provides for a full exemption to the Parent, the Paying Agent, the Company and its or their agents from withholding requirements as a result of a deferral of Israeli income tax pursuant to Section 104H of the Israeli Tax Code, or (B) to the extent that the Parent is not fully exempt from withholding as a result of (A) above, that either: (x) exempts Parent, the Paying Agent, the Company and its or their agents from any obligation to withhold Israeli Tax at source from any consideration payable or otherwise deliverable pursuant to this Agreement, or clarifies that no such obligation exists; or (y) clearly instructs Parent, the Paying Agent, the Company and their agents how and when such withholding at source is to be performed, and in particular, with respect to the classes or categories of holders or former holders of Shares from which Tax is to be withheld (if any), and the rate or rates of withholding to be applied (the “Israeli Withholding Tax Ruling”), provided that no withholding under Israeli Tax law will be made from any consideration payable hereunder to a holder of Company Preferred Stock or Company Common Stock to the extent that such stockholder has provided Parent with an appropriate unequivocal exemption or confirmation of a reduced withholding rate issued by the ITA or such other document, opinion or form which, in the sole discretion of Parent, is sufficient to enable Parent to reasonably conclude that no withholding or a reduced rate of withholding, as applicable, of Israeli Tax is required with respect to the particular Stockholder in question, prior to the time such payment is made; and
 
50

(c) provides that the Escrow Amount shall not be subject to Israeli Tax until actually received by the persons entitled thereto (the “Israeli Escrow Tax Ruling”, and together with Israeli Options Tax Ruling and the Israeli Withholding Tax Ruling, the “Israeli Tax Rulings”).
 
The Company shall, and shall instruct its representatives and advisors to, cooperate with the Parent and its Israeli counsel, consultants, representatives and other advisors with respect to the preparation and filing of such applications and in the preparation of any written or oral submissions that may be necessary, proper or advisable to obtain the Israeli Tax Rulings. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Company shall use its best efforts to promptly take, or cause to be taken, all action and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Law to obtain the Israeli Tax Rulings, as promptly as practicable. The Company, its representatives and advisors shall not make any application to, or conduct any negotiation with, the Israeli Tax authorities with respect to any matter relating to the subject matter of the Israeli Tax Rulings without prior coordination with Parent, and will enable Parent’s representatives and advisors to participate in all discussions and meetings relating thereto. Parent shall reasonably cooperate with the Company and its Israeli counsel, consultants, representatives and other advisors in the course of such participation and to the extent reasonably necessary to enable the Company to obtain the Israeli Tax Rulings. To the extent that the Parent’s representative and advisors elect not to participate in any meeting or discussion, the Company’s representatives and advisors shall provide a prompt and full report of the discussions held. In any event, the final text of the Israeli Tax Rulings shall in all circumstances be subject to the prior written consent of Parent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, it being understood that Parent may withhold such consent if the Israeli Tax Rulings: (i) impose restrictions or limitations upon Parent or the Company; (ii) require Parent to withhold cash in excess of the difference between (x) the Cash Merger Consideration, and (y) the Cash Escrow Amount; or (iii) fail to fully address the matters described in subsections (a) through (c) above to the reasonable satisfaction of Parent.
 
SECTION 5.08. Israel Securities Exemption. As promptly as practicable after the date hereof, Parent shall cause its Israeli counsel to prepare and file with the ISA an application for an exemption from the requirements of the Israeli Securities Law concerning the publication of a prospectus in respect of (a) the exchange of the Company Options for options to purchase Parent Common Stock, and (b) the exchange of the Company Restricted Shares for Parent Restricted Shares, pursuant to Section 15D of the Securities Law of Israel (the “Israeli Securities Exemption”). The Company shall cooperate and cause its Representatives to cooperate with Parent in connection with the preparation and filing of such application and in the preparation of any written or oral submissions that may be necessary, proper or advisable to obtain the Israeli Securities Exemption. Parent shall use its best efforts to obtain the exemption from the requirements of the Israeli Securities Law described in the first sentence of this Section 5.08.
 
51

SECTION 5.09. Public Announcements. Until the earlier of termination of this Agreement or the Closing Date, the Parent, on the one hand, and the Company and the Stockholders, on the other hand, will consult with each other before issuing any press release or otherwise making any public statements with respect to the Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and shall not issue any such press release or make any such public statement that is not approved by the other party, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section shall impair either Party’s compliance with any Law applicable to it, or any requirements of the SEC or the national securities exchange or other stock market on which such Party’s securities are traded; and, provided further, that Parent may issue external media and investor communications related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement if such external media or investor communications are in accordance with Parent’s past practice for disclosures related to similar transactions.

All costs associated with the purchase of the “tail” policy contemplated by this Section 5.12 shall reduce the Cash Merger Consideration dollar for dollar to the extent the total costs of such policy exceeds $48,000.
 
52

SECTION 5.13. Optionholder Waiver Letters. The Company shall use its best efforts to cause the sufficient number of the holders of Company Options to execute a waiver of their right to exercise such options prior to Closing as is necessary to provide for the satisfaction of the condition precedent set forth in Section 7.02(t); provided, however, that the form of such waiver must be reasonably acceptable to the Parent.

SECTION 5.15. Registration Statement on Form S-8. Within 30 days after the Effective Time, the Parent shall file a registration statement on Form S-8 (or any successor form) under the Securities Act with respect to all shares of Parent Common Stock subject to the Company Options assumed in accordance with Section 2.4(e) that may be registered on a Form S-8, and shall use its best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement for so long as such options remain outstanding.

STOCK MATTERS
 
SECTION 6.01. Required Registration. As promptly as practicable after the Closing, unless prohibited by Law, but in no event later than forty-five (45) days after the Closing Date (or, if such date is any day on which the filing of documents with the SEC pursuant to the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder may not be made, then the next day thereafter on which the filing of such documents with the SEC may be made), Parent agrees to file a Registration Statement on Form S-3 or other applicable registration statement (the “Re-Sale Registration Statement”) to register the resale of any and all of the shares of Parent Common Stock issued or issuable pursuant to this Agreement (together, the “Shares”). Parent shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the SEC to declare the Re-Sale Registration Statement effective no later than the 90th day after the Closing; provided, however, that not less than five days prior to the filing of the Re-Sale Registration Statement, Parent shall provide the Stockholders’ Representative with a copy of the Re-Sale Registration Statement proposed to be filed and Parent agrees to consider all appropriate comments provided by the Stockholders’ Representative with respect to the Re-Sale Registration Statement for inclusion in the Re-Sale Registration Statement; provided, further, that Parent shall have no liability to the Stockholders’ Representative for the failure of the SEC to declare the Re-Sale Registration Statement effective no later than the 90th day after the Closing if such failure is a result, directly or indirectly, of the Stockholders’ Representative’s failure to cooperate with Parent pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Parent shall thereafter maintain the effectiveness of the Re-Sale Registration Statement until the earlier of (a) the date on which all the Shares have been sold pursuant to the Re-Sale Registration Statement or Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”), and (b) such time as Parent reasonably determines, based on an opinion of counsel, that the holders of the Shares will be eligible to sell under Rule 144 all of the Shares then owned by them within the volume limitations imposed by paragraph (e) of Rule 144 in the three-month period immediately following the termination of the effectiveness of the Re-Sale Registration Statement. Unless earlier terminated pursuant to the provisions of the preceding sentence, Parent’s obligations contained in this Section 6.01 shall terminate on the third anniversary of the Closing Date.
 
53

SECTION 6.02. Registration Procedures.
 
(a) In case of the Re-Sale Registration Statement effected by Parent subject to this Article VI, Parent shall keep the Seller advised in writing as to the initiation of such registration, and as to the completion thereof. In addition, subject to Section 6.01 above, Parent shall, to the extent applicable to the Re-Sale Registration Statement:
 
(i) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to the Re-Sale Registration Statement as may be necessary to keep such registration continuously effective and free from any material misstatement or omission necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances, not misleading, and comply with provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered thereby during the period referred to in Section 6.01;
 
(ii) update, correct, amend and supplement the Re-Sale Registration Statement as necessary;
 
(iii) notify the Stockholders’ Representative promptly when the Re-Sale Registration Statement is declared effective by the SEC, and furnish such number of prospectuses, including preliminary prospectuses, and other documents incident thereto as the Stockholders’ Representative may reasonably request from time to time;
 
54

(iv) use its commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify the Shares under such other securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions of the United States where an exemption is not available and as the Stockholders’ Representative may reasonably request to enable it to consummate the disposition in such jurisdiction of the Shares (provided that Parent will not be required to (A) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this provision, or (B) consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction, or (C) subject itself to taxation in any jurisdiction where it is not already subject to taxation);
 
(v) notify the Stockholders’ Representative at any time when a prospectus relating to the Shares is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in the Re-Sale Registration Statement contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits any fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and subject to Section 6.02(d), Parent will promptly prepare a supplement or amendment to such prospectus, so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of such shares, such prospectus will not contain any untrue statements of a material fact or omit to state any fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;
 
(vi) cause all such Shares to be listed on each securities exchange or market on which similar securities issued by Parent are then listed and obtain all necessary approvals from such exchange or market for trading thereon;
 
(vii) provide a transfer agent and registrar for all such Shares not later than the effective date of the Re-Sale Registration Statement;
 
(viii) upon the sale of any Shares pursuant to the Re-Sale Registration Statement, direct the transfer agent to remove the Securities Act legend from all certificates or other instruments evidencing the Shares;
 
(ix) With a view to making available to the Stockholders’ Representative the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the SEC that at any time permit the sale of the Shares to the public without registration, so long as any Shares are outstanding, Parent shall use its commercially reasonable efforts for a period of three years following the Closing Date:
 
 
(a)
to make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144(c) under the Securities Act;
 
 
(b)
to file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of Parent under the Exchange Act; and
 
55

 
 
(c)
to furnish to the Stockholders’ Representative upon any reasonable request a written statement by Parent as to its compliance with the public information requirements of Rule 144(c) under the Securities Act; and
 
(x) To advise the Stockholders’ Representative promptly after it has received notice or obtained knowledge of the existence of any stop order by the SEC delaying or suspending the effectiveness of the Re-Sale Registration Statement or of the initiation or threat of any proceeding for that purpose, and to make every commercially reasonable effort to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of the Re-Sale Registration Statement at the earliest possible time.
 
(b) Notwithstanding anything stated or implied to the contrary in Section 6.02(a) above, Parent shall not be required to consent to any underwritten offering of the Shares or to any specific underwriter participating in any underwritten public offering of the Shares.
 
(c) The holders of the Shares agree that upon receipt of any notice from Parent of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 6.02(a)(v), and subject to Section 6.02(d), such holders will forthwith discontinue their disposition of Shares pursuant to the registration statement relating to such Shares until the receipt by such holders of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 6.02(a)(v) (such interim period in which the holders of the Shares are unable to dispose of the Shares is hereinafter referred to as the “Blocked Period”) and, if so directed by Parent, will deliver to Parent at Parent’s expense all copies, other than permanent file copies, then in such holders’ possession, of the prospectus relating to such Shares current at the time of receipt of such notice. However, if during the Blocked Period, Parent proposes to register on a registration statement (other than a resale registration statement on Form S-3 or a registration statement on Form S-8 or Form S-4, or their successors, or any other form for a similar limited purpose, or any registration statement covering only securities proposed to be issued in exchange for securities or assets of another corporation) any of its stock or other securities in connection with the public offering of such stock or securities, then Parent shall use its best efforts to include such Shares as requested by the holders thereof in such registration statement filed by Parent with the SEC; provided, however, that in the case of an underwritten public offering, if the underwriters advise Parent that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, Parent and its underwriters shall allocate the number of shares to be registered in such offering as follows: (i) first, to Parent; (ii) second, to the holders of the Shares; and (iii) thereafter, to the extent additional securities may be included in such offering, to any other holders of Parent securities other than the holders of the Shares. Parent’s obligation to maintain the effectiveness of the Re-Sale Registration Statement pursuant to Section 6.1 above shall be extended by the number of days during which a Blocked Period shall be in effect pursuant to the provisions of this Section 6.2(c).
 
56

(d) In addition to any discontinuance of the disposition of Shares under Section 6.02(c) above, Parent, upon the happening of any pending corporate development, public filing with the SEC or similar event, that, in the good faith judgment of Parent’s Board of Directors based on the advice of counsel, renders it advisable to suspend use of the prospectus, may, for no more than sixty (60) days in the aggregate per event (each a “Suspension Event”), suspend use of the prospectus, on written notice to the holders of the Shares (which notice will not disclose the content of any material non-public information and will indicate the date of the beginning and end of the intended period of suspension, if known), in which case the holders of the Shares shall discontinue disposition of Shares covered by the registration statement related to such Shares or prospectus until copies of a supplemented or amended prospectus are distributed to them or until they are advised in writing by Parent that sales of Shares under the applicable prospectus may be resumed and have received copies of any additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference in any such prospectus. The suspension and notice thereof described in this Section 6.02(d) shall be subject to the confidentiality provisions of Section 5.03 herein and the Nondisclosure Agreement and shall not be disclosed by the Seller. Parent may not utilize the suspension described in this Section 6.02(d) for more than two (2) Suspension Events in any twelve-month period. Parent will use commercially reasonably efforts to ensure that the use of the Re-Sale Registration Statement and prospectus may be resumed as promptly as practicable.
 
(e) Except as required by Law, all expenses incurred by Parent in complying with this Article VI, including but not limited to, all registration, qualification and filing fees, printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel and accountants for Parent, blue sky fees and expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel related to all blue sky matters) incurred in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance pursuant to this Article VI shall be borne by Parent. All underwriting discounts and selling commissions applicable to a sale incurred in connection with any registration of Shares and the legal fees and other expenses of the holders of the Shares shall be borne by such holders.
 
If Shares are included in any registration, the holders of such Shares shall furnish Parent such information regarding itself or themselves as Parent may reasonably request and as shall be required in connection with any registration (or amendment or supplement thereto), referred to in this Agreement, and the holders of such Shares shall indemnify Parent with respect thereto in accordance with Article VIII hereof. The holders of such Shares agree and acknowledge that Parent may rely on such information as being true and correct for purposes of preparing and filing the Re-Sale Registration Statement at the time of filing thereof and at the time it is declared effective, unless the holders of such Shares have notified Parent in writing to the contrary prior to such time.
 
SECTION 6.03. Transfer of Shares. A holder of the Shares may transfer all or any part of his or its Shares to any Affiliate of such holder; provided, that any such transfer shall be effected in full compliance with all applicable federal and state securities laws, including, but not limited to, the Securities Act, and further provided, that in any such case, it shall be a condition to any such transfer that the transferee execute an agreement stating that the transferee is receiving and holding the Shares subject to the provisions of this Agreement, and there shall be no further transfer of such Shares except in accordance with this Agreement. Parent will effect such transfer of restricted certificates and will promptly amend or supplement the Prospectus forming a part of the Re-Sale Registration Statement to add the transferee to the selling stockholders in the Re-Sale Registration Statement; provided that the transferor and transferee shall be required to provide Parent with the information requested by Parent in this Agreement, information reasonably necessary for Parent to determine that the transfer was effected in accordance with all applicable federal and state securities laws, including, but not limited to, the Securities Act, and all other information reasonably requested by Parent from time to time in connection with any transfer, registration, qualification or compliance referred to in this Article VI.
 
57

SECTION 6.04. Restricted Securities, Stock Certificate Legend. The holders of the Shares acknowledge that the issuance by Parent of the shares of Common Stock to such holders hereunder has not and will not be registered under the Securities Act by reason of their contemplated issuance in transactions exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(2) thereof, and that such shares will be deemed “restricted securities” for purposes of the Securities Act. The holders of the Shares acknowledge that any certificate or certificates representing shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to this Agreement shall bear the following legend, in addition to any legend that may be required by any Law or any other provisions of this Agreement:
 
“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF IN THE ABSENCE OF (i) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR SUCH SECURITIES UNDER SAID ACT OR (ii) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SUCH ACT.”
 
SECTION 6.05. Reservation of Stock. Parent shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of issuance of the shares of Common Stock hereunder, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to issue such shares, and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be sufficient to issue the shares of Common Stock that Parent is required to issue pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, in addition to such other remedies as shall be available to the holders of the Shares, Parent will use its reasonable efforts to take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes.
 
SECTION 6.06. No Stockholder Rights. Prior to the issuance of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the holders of the Shares shall not be entitled, by virtue of this Agreement, to any rights of a stockholder of Parent, including (without limitation) the right to vote, receive dividends or other distributions or be notified of stockholder meetings, and except as otherwise provided herein, the holders of the Shares shall not be entitled to any notice or other communication concerning the business or affairs of the Buyer, except as required by Law.
 
SECTION 6.07. Compliance with Law or Stock Exchange. If at any time after Closing, any new Law, rule or regulation is enacted or promulgated by (i) any national securities exchange; or (ii) any federal or state securities authority having jurisdiction over Parent, which must be satisfied in the good faith determination of the Parent as a condition of the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, or if the consent or approval of a Governmental Entity to the issuance of any shares of Common Stock must be obtained as a condition to such issuance, in whole or in part, then Parent may delay such issuance until such condition has been satisfied. Parent and the holders of the Shares mutually agree to cooperate with one another to satisfy any such condition as promptly as possible and to provide any information, representations and agreements as are required for such purpose.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Article VIII and of the last sentence of this Section 8.03(a), the Stockholders agree to and will indemnify, defend and hold the Parent, the Company and the Company Subsidiary, and their respective officers, directors, advisors, Affiliates, agents, employees and each Person, if any, who controls or may control the Parent within the meaning of the Securities Act (the “Parent Indemnified Group”) harmless from and against all demands or claims, actions or causes of action, assessments, losses, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses, including, without limitation, Taxes, interest, penalties, and reasonable fees and expenses of attorneys, accountants or consultants (hereinafter collectively called “Damages”), asserted against, resulting to, imposed upon or incurred by the Company, the Company Subsidiary or the Parent, by reason of, resulting from or arising out of:
 
(i) a breach of any representation or warranty of the Company, the Company Subsidiary or any Stockholder contained in or made pursuant to this Agreement, or any facts or circumstances constituting such a breach;
 
(ii) any breach of any covenant or agreement of the Company, the Company Subsidiary or any Stockholder contained in or made pursuant to this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement;
 
(iii) any Taxes, including without limitation, any Taxes described in Section 5.06(b), but not including any U.S. Withholding Liability, for any Taxable period (or portion thereof) ending on or before the Closing Date due and payable by the Company or the Company Subsidiary, in each case only to the extent such Taxes are not reflected in the reserve for Tax liability (rather than any reserve for deferred Taxes established to reflect timing differences between book and Tax income) on the Final Closing Balance Sheet (as finally determined);
 
(iv) any U.S. Withholding Liability; and
 
(v) any liability incurred by members of the Parent Indemnified Group due to making the bonus payments described in Section 2.05(a)(ii) and in the paragraph following Section 2.05(a)(ii) of this Agreement, whether such liability derives from the recipients of such bonuses or from other Persons.
 
In addition, all fees and expenses of attorneys, accountants or consultants relating to the resolution of the U.S. Withholding Liability shall be reimbursed in accordance with the provisions of Section 3(l) of the Escrow Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the threshold set forth in Section 8.05 shall not apply to reimbursements under Section 3(l) of the Escrow Agreement.
 
64

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Article VIII, the Parent agrees to and will indemnify, defend and hold the Company (prior to the Closing Date) and the Stockholders (following the Closing Date) harmless from and against all Damages asserted against, resulting to, imposed upon or incurred by them by reason of or resulting from or arising out of (i) a breach of any representation or warranty of the Parent contained in or made pursuant to this Agreement, or any facts or circumstances constituting such a breach, or (ii) any breach of any covenant or agreement of the Parent contained in or made pursuant to this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement.
 
SECTION 8.04. Conditions of Indemnification. Except with respect to any claim for Taxes which shall be governed by Section 5.06, the respective obligations and liabilities of the Stockholders, on the one hand, and the Parent, on the other hand (herein sometimes called the “indemnifying party”), to the other (herein sometimes called the “party to be indemnified” or the “indemnified party”) with respect to claims resulting from the assertion of liability by third parties shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:
 
(a) within 30 days after receipt of notice of commencement of any action or the assertion of any claim by a third party, the party to be indemnified shall give the indemnifying party written notice thereof together with a copy of such claim, process or other legal pleading (provided that failure so to notify the indemnifying party of the assertion of a claim within such period shall not affect its indemnity obligation hereunder except as and to the extent that such failure shall adversely affect the defense of such claim), and the indemnifying party shall have the right to undertake the defense thereof by representatives of its own choosing;
 
(b) in the event that the indemnifying party, by the 30th day after receipt of notice of any such claim (or, if earlier, by the tenth day preceding the day on which an answer or other pleading must be served in order to prevent judgment by default in favor of the Person asserting such claim), does not elect to defend against such claim, the party to be indemnified will (upon further notice to the indemnifying party) have the right to undertake the defense, compromise or settlement of such claim on behalf of and for the account and risk of the indemnifying party, subject to the right of the indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim at any time prior to settlement, compromise or final determination thereof;
 
(c) anything in this Section 8.04 to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) if there is a reasonable probability that a claim may materially and adversely affect the indemnified party other than as a result of money damages or other money payments, the indemnified party shall have the right, at its own cost and expense, to compromise or settle such claim, but (ii) the indemnified party shall not, without the prior written consent of the indemnifying party, settle or compromise any claim or consent to the entry of any judgment which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to the indemnifying party a release from all liability in respect of such claim;
 
(d) any rights of the indemnified party under this Article VIII based on the breach of a representation, warranty or covenant or based on the failure of such representation or warranty to be true as of the date hereof or the Closing Date shall not be diminished or otherwise affected in any way as a result of the existence of such indemnified party’s Knowledge of such breach or untruth as of the date hereof or as of the Closing Date, regardless of whether such Knowledge exists as a result of the indemnified party’s investigation or as a result of disclosure by the Company (or any other Person), unless such disclosures were set forth in this Agreement or in any applicable schedules hereto; and
 
65

(e) in connection with any such indemnification, the indemnified party will cooperate in all reasonable requests of the indemnifying party.
 
In the event that the “indemnifying party” or the “party to be indemnified” as described in this Section 8.04 is the Stockholders as a group, then any notices required to be given to or by, and all other actions or decisions required to be taken or made by, such “indemnifying party” or the “party to be indemnified” as provided in this Section 8.04, may be given to or by, or may be taken or made by, the Stockholders’ Representative.
 
SECTION 8.05. Threshold for Damages. Except in the case of Damages in respect of fraud, and the indemnities set forth in Section 8.03(a)(iii) or 8.03(a)(iv), an Indemnified Person may not make a claim for Damages until the aggregate amount of claims by Indemnified Persons exceeds $100,000; provided, however, that once the aggregate amount of Damages of Indemnified Persons exceed such threshold amount, then the Indemnified Persons shall have the right to recover the full amounts due without regard to the threshold. In determining the amount of any Damage attributable to a breach, any materiality standard contained in a representation, warranty or covenant of the Stockholders or the Company shall be disregarded.
 
SECTION 8.06. Escrow Funds.  On the Closing Date, the Parent shall deliver to the Escrow Agent the Cash Escrow Amount and the Stock Escrow Amount. The Cash Escrow Amount and the Stock Escrow Amount shall be held by the Escrow Agent in separate accounts under the Escrow Agreement pursuant to the terms set forth therein. The Cash Escrow Amount shall be available solely to satisfy the indemnification obligations of the Company pursuant to Sections 8.03(a)(iii) and (iv) and to cover amounts (if any) owing to Parent pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.13(c) hereof. The Stock Escrow Amount shall be available solely to satisfy the indemnification obligations of the Company pursuant to Sections 8.03(a)(i), (ii) and (iii); provided, however, that to the extent the Cash Escrow Amount is insufficient or unavailable to satisfy the obligations to which the Cash Escrow relates, the Parent may seek to recover any remaining Damages from the Stock Escrow Amount (it being understood that the Cash Escrow Account shall not be available to satisfy the obligations to which the Stock Escrow relates). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any Transaction Document, except in the case of fraud, criminal activity, intentional misrepresentation or intentional misconduct, the parties hereby understand and agree that Parent’s sole recourse to obtain satisfaction of any indemnity claim made under this Article VIII shall be by way of set-off against the Cash Escrow Amount and/or the Stock Escrow Amount, as applicable, pursuant to the provisions of this Article VIII and the Escrow Agreement.
 
SECTION 8.07. Exclusive Remedy. Except in the case of fraud, criminal activity, intentional misrepresentation or intentional misconduct, the sole and exclusive monetary remedy for any breach or alleged breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement in this Agreement or any Transaction Document shall be indemnification in accordance with this Article VIII. Except as set forth above, and in furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any and all other rights, claims and causes of action (including rights of contribution, if any) known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, which exist or may arise in the future, that it may have against the Stockholders or the Parent, as the case may be, arising under or based upon any federal, state or local Law.
