Parent, Merger Sub, the Company and the Representative are collectively referred to herein as the “Parties” or individually as a “Party.” Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement have the meanings assigned to them in Section 8.1.

BACKGROUND

The board of managers of the Company has (a) determined that it is in the best interest of the members of the Company (the “Company Members”) to enter into this Agreement, (b) approved and declared advisable the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the Transactions, including the merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company (the “Merger”), pursuant to which the Company shall continue as the surviving limited liability company and as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent, and (c) resolved to recommend adoption and approval of this Agreement by and the approval of the consummation of the Transactions, including the Merger, by the Requisite Holders (as that term is defined in the Company LLC Agreement), in each case, in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement and in accordance with the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act (as amended, the “DLLCA”) and the Organizational Documents of the Company.

Contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Company has provided the Company Member Approval adopting and approving this Agreement and approving the consummation of the Transactions, including the Merger, in accordance with the DLLCA and the Organizational Documents of the Company, and accordingly the Transactions, including the Merger, are an Approved Sale.

Contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, Parent, in its capacity as the sole member of Merger Sub, has adopted and approved this Agreement and approved the consummation of the Transactions, including the Merger, in accordance with the DLLCA and the Organizational Documents of Merger Sub.

The right of Company Members, holders of Company Options and the holder of Restricted Stock Units (collectively, the “Company Holders”) to receive Merger Consideration will be subject to the indemnification obligations of the Company Holders set forth in this Agreement, and a portion of the Merger Consideration will be placed in escrow by Parent as security for an adjustment, if any, pursuant to Section 1.7 and indemnification obligations of the Company Holders hereunder.

Vista Equity Partners Management, LLC (“Vista”) has been appointed as the Representative as of the date of this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.10 for the purposes set forth in this Agreement.

As a condition and inducement to Parent entering into this Agreement, concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, (a) each of the individuals set forth on Section 2.12(d) of the Disclosure Schedule has executed and delivered an Offer Letter, (b) certain Company Holders have executed and delivered a restrictive covenant agreement in the form of Exhibit C-1, and (c) Vista and certain of its Affiliates have executed and delivered a restrictive covenant agreement in the form of Exhibit C-2 (items (b) and (c) together, the “Restrictive Covenant Agreements”), that, in each case will become effective as of the Effective Time.

In consideration of the foregoing premises and the respective representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE 1

MERGER

Section 1.1 The Merger. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions in this Agreement, and in accordance with the DLLCA, Merger Sub will be merged with and into the Company, pursuant to the certificate of merger substantially in the form of Exhibit D (the “Certificate of Merger”). Parent will cause the Certificate of Merger to be filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware concurrently with or as soon as practicable following the Closing. The Merger will become effective at the time of such filing or such other time set forth in the Certificate of Merger (the “Effective Time”). As a result of the Merger, the separate limited liability company existence of Merger Sub shall cease, and the Company will be the surviving limited liability company (sometimes referred to as the “Surviving Company”) and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent.

Section 1.2 Closing. The closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) will take place as promptly as practicable, but not later than two Business Days, after the satisfaction or waiver of each of the conditions set forth in Article 5 (other than such conditions that by their nature will be satisfied at Closing), or at such other time as the Parties agree in writing; provided, however, that (a) unless Parent expressly agrees in writing (in its sole discretion), the Closing shall not take place prior to February 19, 2021 and (b) if pursuant to this Section 1.2 the Closing is scheduled to occur within the last week of a calendar quarter, then the Closing shall occur on the first Business Day of the immediately succeeding calendar quarter. The Closing will take place by electronic exchange of documents. The date on which the Closing occurs is the “Closing Date.”

Section 1.3 General Effects of the Merger.

(a) The effect of the Merger will be as provided in this Agreement, the Certificate of Merger and the applicable provisions of the DLLCA.

(b) At the Effective Time, the certificate of formation of the Surviving Company will be amended and restated to read the same as the certificate of formation of Merger Sub as is in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that all references to the name of Merger Sub therein will be changed to a name designated by Parent.

(c) At the Effective Time, the limited liability company agreement of Merger Sub, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, will be the limited liability company agreement of the Surviving Company, except that all references to the name of Merger Sub therein will be changed to a name designated by Parent.

(d) At the Effective Time, the officers of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time will become the officers of the Surviving Company, for so long as provided under the DLLCA and the certificate of formation and the limited liability company agreement of the Surviving Company.

Section 1.4 Effects on Company Units; Escrow Fund and Expense Fund. As of the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Merger Sub, Parent or the Company, the following will occur:

(a) Each Company Unit or other equity interest of the Company that is owned by Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or any of their Subsidiaries, will automatically be cancelled for no consideration and will cease to exist.

(b) All equity interests of Merger Sub outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be converted into one validly issued and fully paid unit of the Surviving Company.

(c) All Company Units (other than Company Units to be cancelled in accordance with Section 1.4(a)) issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time will be converted into the right to receive (1) an amount of cash (without interest) equal to the Closing Per Unit Consideration and (2) from time to time an amount of cash equal to the Contingent Consideration for such Company Unit, in each case subject to Section 1.7(b). All Company Units will no longer be outstanding, will automatically be canceled and will cease to exist. Book entries representing Company Units as of immediately prior to the Effective Time will represent only the right to receive the Closing Per Unit Consideration and Contingent Consideration that is allocated to such Company Units, following delivery of a Letter of Transmittal with respect to such Company Units.

(d) At each time of payment, the amount of cash each Company Holder is entitled to receive from time to time for all Company Units held by such Company Holder will be aggregated and rounded down to the nearest whole cent.

(e) At the Closing, Parent will make the following payments and retain the following amounts in accordance with the Funds Flow Statement:

(1) Parent will pay, or cause to be paid, (A) the Transaction Expenses on behalf of the Company set forth on the Closing Statement, and (B) the Company Indebtedness to be repaid in accordance with the Closing Statement;

(2) Parent will cause a portion of the Merger Consideration equal to $35,000,000 (the “Escrow Amount” and, as it may be or decreased from time to time pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, the “Escrow Fund”) to be deposited with the Escrow Agent in accordance with an agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit E (the “Escrow Agreement”), by and among Parent, the Escrow Agent and the Representative. The Escrow Fund will be held and distributed in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement and Article 7;

(3) Parent shall deliver to an account designated by the Representative an amount equal to $500,000 (the “Representative Fund”) to be held in trust to cover and reimburse the fees and expenses incurred by the Representative for its obligations in connection with this Agreement and the transaction contemplated herein. The Representative Fund will be held and distributed in the discretion of the Representative and in accordance with Section 7.10(a);

(4) Parent will cause the balance of the Merger Consideration in excess of the sum of the amounts deposited according to Section 1.4(e)(2) and Section 1.4(e)(3) that is payable to Company Members and non-employee Company Holders of Vested In-the-Money Options to be deposited with the Exchange Agent, as set forth in the Closing Statement and subject to Section 1.8;

(5) Parent will cause the balance of the Merger Consideration in excess of the sum of the amounts deposited according to Section 1.4(e)(2) and Section 1.4(e)(3) that is payable to employee (or former employee) Company Holders of Vested In-the-Money Options to be deposited with the Surviving Company, as set forth in the Closing Statement and subject to Section 1.8; and

(6) If there is a split, combination, dividend of equity or equity derivatives, reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization or other similar change with respect to Company Units occurring after the date of this Agreement and prior to the Effective Time, all references in this Agreement to specified numbers of Company Units affected thereby, and all calculations that are based upon numbers of units of any such Company Units or the liquidation preferences thereof that are affected thereby, will be equitably adjusted to the extent necessary to provide the Company Holders the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement before such change.

Section 1.5 Exchange of Company Units.

(a) At or before the Closing, Parent shall enter into an agreement with the Exchange Agent, which shall provide that Parent shall make available at the Effective Time to the Exchange Agent cash in the amount necessary for the payment of the Closing Per Unit Consideration to Company Holders as specified and allocated in Section 1.4 and the Closing Per Option Consideration to Company Holders of Vested In-the-Money Options as specified and allocated in Section 1.6.

(b) At or promptly following the Effective Time, Parent or the Surviving Company shall pay, or Parent or the Surviving Company shall otherwise take all steps necessary to cause to be paid by check or wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts of the holders of Company Units, to the extent that each such holder of Company Units delivers a letter of transmittal substantially in the form of Exhibit F (the “Letter of Transmittal”), duly executed and completed in accordance with the instructions thereto, to the Company or its designee and copies of such documents are received by Parent at least two Business Days prior to the Closing Date, cash in an aggregate amount equal to the Closing Per Unit Consideration into which the Company Units were converted in accordance with Section 1.4(c), as set forth on the Closing Statement; provided, that to the extent Company Holders Affiliated with Vista deliver Letters of Transmittal as set forth above, Parent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the payments to which such Company Holders are entitled hereunder shall be delivered to such Company Holders on the Closing Date. If any transfer of ownership of Company Units has not been registered in the Company’s equity interest records, payment may be made to a Person other than the registered owner only in accordance with the requirements described in the Letter of Transmittal. Other than interest earned on the Escrow Amount that becomes part of the Escrow Fund and is not distributed to Parent in accordance with the Escrow Agreement, no interest will accrue or be paid on the cash payable to Company Holders in accordance with this Article 1.

(c) The payment of cash paid in respect of Company Units or In-the-Money Options in accordance with this Article 1, including any Contingent Consideration payable from time to time in respect of those Company Units and In-the-Money Options, will be in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the Company Units or In-the-Money Options. The equity transfer books of the Company will be closed immediately upon the Effective Time, and there will be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Company of the Company Units or In-the-Money Options that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(d) None of Parent, the Surviving Company or the Exchange Agent will be liable to any Person with respect to any Merger Consideration (including any Contingent Consideration) validly delivered to a public official in accordance with any legally applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. If any amounts payable in accordance with this Article 1 would otherwise escheat to any Governmental Authority, then any such amounts, immediately prior to the date on which such amounts would escheat, will become the property of the Surviving Company, free and clear of all claims or interests of any Person previously entitled thereto.

Section 1.6 Effects on Company Options and Restricted Stock Units.

(a) At the Effective Time, (x) each then-outstanding option to purchase Class B Units (each, a “Company Option”) that was granted under the 2013 Plan and is vested and unexercised as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and (y) each Company Option (other than a Rollover Option) that was granted under the 2018 Plan, whether vested or unvested, which, in each case, has an exercise price per Class B Unit less than the Per Unit Consideration (each, a “Vested In-the-Money Option”) will be cancelled in consideration of:

(1) an amount in cash equal to the Closing Per Option Consideration applicable to the Vested In-the-Money Option, subject to any Tax withholding in accordance with Section 1.7(b); and

(2) a non-transferable contingent right of the Company Holder of such Vested In-the-Money Option to receive the Contingent Consideration allocable to such Vested In-the-Money Option.

(b) At the Effective Time, each Rollover Option and each other Company Option granted pursuant to the 2013 Plan that is unexercised and unvested immediately prior to the Effective Time, which, in each case, has an exercise price per Class B Unit less than the Per Unit Consideration (each, an “Unvested In-the-Money Option”) will be cancelled and automatically converted into an option (each, a “Substituted Option”) to acquire a number of shares of Parent Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) equal to (1) the number of Class B Units subject to such Unvested In-the-Money Options multiplied by (2) the Substituted Option Exchange Ratio, which Substituted Option shall have an exercise price per share of Parent Common Stock equal to the quotient (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) obtained by dividing (x) the exercise price per Class B Unit of such Unvested In-the-Money Option in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time by (y) the Substituted Option Exchange Ratio. Each Substituted Option will remain subject to the same service-based vesting schedule and other terms and conditions that applied to the corresponding Unvested In-the-Money Option in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, except for any performance-based vesting conditions and other terms rendered inoperative by reason of the Merger or for any appropriate administrative or ministerial changes; provided that, the delivery of the Substituted Option will be contingent on the delivery of a Rollover Option Consent; and provided, further, that as of the Effective Time, the Board of Directors of Parent or a committee thereof shall succeed to the authority and responsibility of the Company’s board of managers or any committee thereof with respect to each Substituted Option.

(c) As soon as reasonably practicable following the Effective Time and prior to first date on which shares of Parent Common Stock shall become issuable with respect to a Substituted Option, Parent shall file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement on Form S-8 (the “Form S-8 Registration Statement”), registering that number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Parent Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of all Substituted Options that are eligible to be registered on Form S-8 and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the effectiveness of the Form S-8 Registration Statement for so long as such Substituted Options remain outstanding; provided, however, that in the event that the filing deadline contemplated by this Section 1.6(c) shall occur while trading of shares of Parent Common Stock has been suspended globally under Parent’s then-effective registration statements, then Parent shall only be required to file the Form S-8 Registration Statement as soon as reasonably practicable after trading has been restored.

(d) At the Effective Time, each outstanding and unvested award of Restricted Stock Units shall become fully vested and shall be cancelled and converted into the right to receive the Per Unit Consideration in respect of each Class B Unit underlying such award in accordance with Section 1.4(c).

(e) Following the Effective Time, no holder of any Company Options or Restricted Stock Units will have any right to receive any consideration in respect of such Company Option or Restricted Stock Units, as applicable, other than as expressly set forth in this Section 1.6, notwithstanding the terms of the Company Option or any Company Unit Plan or any agreements underlying the grant of Restricted Stock Units. As of the Effective Date, the Board of Directors of Parent shall assume each Company Unit Plan, as amended in accordance with Section 4.12(e). As of the date of this Agreement, the 2018 Plan has an aggregate of up to 22,791,152 Class B Units that are authorized and remain unissued.

(f) Prior to the payment of any consideration therefor in accordance with this Section 1.6, the Company or the Surviving Company, as applicable, will (1) obtain from (A) each holder of Rollover Options or other Company Options granted pursuant to the 2013 Plan that is unexercised and unvested immediately prior to the Effective Time a consent in the form of Exhibit G-1 (a “Rollover Option Consent”) and (B) each holder of any Vested In-the-Money Options or any Restricted Stock Units a consent in the form of Exhibit G-2 (such consent, together with the Rollover Option Consents, the “Option Consents”), in each case, which provide for such holder’s consent to Article 7 and the application of this Section 1.6 to all of such holder’s Company Options or Restricted Stock Units, as applicable, in full satisfaction of any rights such holder may have under the Company Unit Plans prior to giving effect to the amendment contemplated by Section 4.12(e) or any Company Options or any agreements underlying the grant of Restricted Stock Units (in each case, excluding any continuing right to Substituted Options received pursuant to Section 1.6(b) and (2) adopt resolutions to effectuate the treatment of the Company Options and Restricted Stock Units pursuant to this Section 1.6, including providing that any Company Option with respect to which a valid notice of exercise either has not been received by the Company or has been received but then revoked prior to the Closing will not be exercisable thereafter, and (3) take any other actions that are necessary to effectuate the treatment of the Company Options and Restricted Stock Units pursuant to this Section 1.6. Each Option Consent will include a provision regarding the release of claims and acknowledgement of and consent to the provisions of Section 1.6.

(g) Payment of the consideration for each Vested In-the-Money Option pursuant to this Section 1.6 will be made as follows, subject to the receipt by Parent of an Option Consent from the holder:

(1) on the Company’s first regular payroll date that is at least ten Business Days after the Closing Date, Parent will, or will cause the Exchange Agent or the Surviving Company to, deliver to the holder of such Vested In-the-Money Option the consideration payable pursuant to Section 1.6(a)(1); and

(2) in connection with each instance of payment of Contingent Consideration, Parent will cause the Escrow Agent to deliver the consideration payable pursuant to Section 1.6(a)(1) to Parent or a subsidiary of Parent designated by Parent, which will in turn deliver or cause to be delivered the consideration payable pursuant to Section 1.6(a)(1) to such holder on the first payroll date that is at least ten Business Days after the receipt by Parent or its designated subsidiary of such amount from the Escrow Agent.

Section 1.7 Post-Closing Adjustment.

(a) Section 1.7(a) of the Disclosure Schedule sets forth an example calculation of Working Capital as of October 31, 2020, including the components thereof, assuming the Closing occurred on such date. Such example calculation was prepared using the principles, methods and methodologies set forth on Section 1.7(a) of the Disclosure Schedule (the “Accounting Principles”). Concurrently with delivery of the Closing Statement, the Company will deliver to Parent the Company’s good faith estimate of estimated Working Capital as of immediately prior to the Closing, including the components thereof, as calculated based on the Accounting Principles and the example calculation of Working Capital set forth on Section 1.7(a) of the Disclosure Schedules (the “Estimated Working Capital”), including reasonable supporting documents.

(b) Within 90 calendar days after the Closing Date, Parent shall deliver to the Representative (1) an unaudited consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of immediately before the Closing (the “Closing Balance Sheet”) and (2) a statement (the “Post-Closing Statement”) setting forth the calculation of the (A) actual Working Capital as of immediately prior to the Closing, including the components thereof, as calculated on a basis consistent with Section 1.7(a) of the Disclosure Schedules (the “Closing Working Capital”), (B) actual Cash and Cash Equivalents of the Company as of immediately prior to the Closing (“Closing Cash”), (C) actual Company Indebtedness as of immediately prior to the Closing (the “Closing Company Indebtedness”) and (D) the actual Transaction Expenses as of immediately prior to the Closing (the “Closing Transaction Expenses”), in each case with reasonable supporting or underlying documentation used in the preparation thereof. The Closing Balance Sheet and Post-Closing Statement will be prepared in accordance with the Accounting Principles and will fairly present the financial position of the Company as of the Closing Date immediately before the Effective Time. When Parent delivers the Closing Balance Sheet and the Post-Closing Statement, Parent shall provide the Representative and the Representative’s representatives reasonable access during normal business hours to the books and records and employees of the Surviving Company to the extent necessary to determine the accuracy of the Closing Balance Sheet and the Post-Closing Statement and will cause the employees of the Surviving Company and Parent to reasonably cooperate with the Representative and the Representative’s representatives in connection with their determination of the accuracy of the Closing Balance Sheet and the Post-Closing Statement.

(c) The Representative may object to the Closing Balance Sheet or the Post-Closing Statement by written notice to Parent within 45 calendar days after the Representative receives the Closing Balance Sheet and the Post-Closing Statement. If the Representative does not so object, then the Closing Balance Sheet and the Post-Closing Statement will each be considered final at the end of the last day of that 45-day period. If the Representative does so object during such period and the Representative and Parent are unable to resolve their differences within 30 calendar days after the Representative so objected, then the Representative and Parent will instruct their respective accountants to use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve such disputed items to their mutual satisfaction and to deliver a final Closing Balance Sheet and Post-Closing Statement to the Representative and Parent as soon as possible. If the Representative’s accountants and Parent’s accountants are unable to resolve any such disputed items within 30 calendar days after receiving such instructions, then the Representative and Parent will submit a list of the remaining disputed items and the respective values attributable thereto to a nationally recognized independent accounting firm mutually agreed by Parent and the Representative (the “Working Capital Arbiter”) for resolution, and they will instruct the Working Capital Arbiter to determine the final Closing Balance Sheet and Post-Closing Statement and to deliver its determination to the Representative and Parent as soon as possible. The Working Capital Arbiter will consider only those items and amounts in the Representative’s and Parent’s respective calculations of the Post-Closing Statement that are identified as being items and amounts to which the Representative and Parent have been unable to agree. In resolving any disputed item, the Working Capital Arbiter must assign the item a value equal to or between the values claimed respectively by the Representative and Parent. The Working Capital Arbiter will determine the final calculation for Closing Working Capital (the “Final Working Capital”), Closing Cash (the “Final Cash”), Closing Company Indebtedness (the “Final Company Indebtedness”) and Closing Transaction Expenses (the “Final Transaction Expenses”, together with Final Working Capital, Final Cash and Final Company Indebtedness, the “Final Closing Statement”) based solely on the written materials submitted by the Representative and Parent and on the definition of Working Capital included in this Agreement. The determination of the Working Capital Arbiter will be binding upon the Parties for all purposes, and Parent, the Representative and the Company Members each will not have any right to, and will not, institute any Action challenging such determination or with respect to the matters that are the subject of this Section 1.7, except that they will not be precluded from instituting or pursuing an Action to enforce such determination, or from claiming any Losses pursuant to Section 7.3(f) or (g) to the extent not otherwise taken into account in the Final Closing Statement. The Working Capital Arbiter will act as an expert and not as an arbitrator. If the Working Capital Arbiter’s determination of Post-Closing Statement is closer to the value initially asserted by Parent to the Working Capital Arbiter, then the Company Members will pay the costs of the Working Capital Arbiter, and the Representative is authorized to pay such costs by deducting the amount thereof from the Representative Fund or any Contingent Consideration otherwise payable. If the Working Capital Arbiter’s determination of the Final Closing Statement is closer to the value initially asserted by the Representative to the Working Capital Arbiter, then Parent will pay the costs of the Working Capital Arbiter. Each of Parent and the Representative will cooperate with and assist the Working Capital Arbiter to determine the Final Closing Statement and Closing Balance Sheet, including by making available and granting access to records and employees.

(d) Within three Business Days of the final determination of the Closing Balance Sheet and Final Closing Statement in accordance with Section 1.7(a), the Merger Consideration shall be recalculated by substituting the Final Working Capital for Estimated Working Capital, the Final Cash for Estimated Cash, the Final Company Indebtedness for Estimated Company Indebtedness and the Final Transaction Expenses for Estimated Transaction Expenses (the “Adjusted Merger Consideration”), and:

Each Party, at the request of the other Parties, will execute and deliver such documents and do and perform such other acts and things as may be necessary for effecting completely the consummation of the Transactions.

Section 3.4 Merger Sub. Merger Sub is a direct, wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent formed solely for the purposes of effecting the Merger. There is no agreement outstanding pursuant to which any Person has any existing or contingent right to acquire any equity of Merger Sub. Except for obligations or liabilities incurred in connection with its formation and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, Merger Sub has not and will not have incurred, directly or indirectly, through any Subsidiary or Affiliate, any obligations or liabilities or engaged in any business activities of any type or kind whatsoever or entered into any agreements or arrangements with any Person.

There are no claims for brokerage commissions, finder’s fees or similar compensation in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement based on any arrangement or agreement made or alleged to have been made by or on behalf of Parent or Merger Sub (or their respective officers, directors, employees or agents).

Section 3.7 Sufficient Funds. Parent has delivered to the Company complete, correct and fully executed copies of a commitment letter and a related fee letter (which in the case of such fee letter may be subject to redaction in a customary manner with respect to fee amounts, including fee amounts in any flex terms) (collectively, the “Commitment Letter”) from the Financing Sources pursuant to which the Financing Sources have committed to provide to Parent and Merger Sub, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, debt financing in the amounts set forth therein for purposes of financing the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and paying related fees and expenses (such debt financing, the “Initial Financing”). As of the date hereof, the Commitment Letter is in full force and effect and is a valid and binding obligation of Parent and, to the knowledge of Parent, the other parties thereto, in each case subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights and remedies generally, and subject, as to enforceability, to general principles of equity, regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding at law or in equity. As of the date hereof, the Commitment Letter has not been amended or modified in any material respect, and, to the knowledge of Parent, the commitments contained in the Commitment Letter have not been withdrawn, rescinded or otherwise modified in any material respect. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Commitment Letter, the aggregate proceeds of the Initial Financing, together with Parent’s unrestricted cash on hand, are in an aggregate amount sufficient to pay all obligations of Parent and Merger Sub hereunder, including (a) the amounts payable pursuant to Section 1.4(e), and (b) all of the out-of-pocket costs of Parent, Merger Sub and the Surviving Company arising from the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and there will be no restriction on the use of such cash for such purposes. The Commitment Letter delivered to the Company contains all of the conditions precedent to the obligations of the parties thereunder to fund the full amount of the Initial Financing contemplated by the Commitment Letter. Other than the Commitment Letter itself (including the redacted fee letter provided to the Company as of the date hereof) and other than certain customary engagement letters and confidentiality agreements with respect to the Initial Financing, there are no other fee letters, engagement letters, side letters, agreements, contracts or other arrangements relating to the Commitment Letter. As of the date hereof, assuming the condition set forth in Section 5.3(a) is satisfied, no event has occurred which, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would constitute or reasonably be expected to constitute a default or breach on the part of Parent under any material term of, or a failure of any condition or inability to satisfy any conditions precedent to funding the full amount of the Initial Financing under, the Commitment Letter or otherwise result in any portion of the Initial Financing to be unavailable or materially delayed. As of the date hereof, and assuming that the conditions set forth in Section 5.1 and Section 5.3 are satisfied, Parent does not have reason to believe that it will be unable to satisfy on a timely basis any condition to the Initial Financing under the Commitment Letter required to be satisfied by it at or prior to the Closing, or that any portion of the Initial Financing contemplated thereby will be unavailable to Parent at the Closing.

(2) the number and class of Company Units held by each Company Holder;

(3) the number and class of Company Units subject to the Company Options held by each Company Holder, the exercise price per unit in effect as of the Closing Date for each Company Option, and the extent to which each Company Option will be vested as of the Closing Date (after accounting for any acceleration of vesting that will occur as of the Effective Time);

(10) a final estimate, reasonably detailed and separated by payees, of all Company Indebtedness through the Closing (the “Estimated Company Indebtedness”), itemized in accordance with the lettered sub-clauses of the definition of the Company Indebtedness and by payee (to the extent payable to a third party) and otherwise in reasonable detail, with wire instructions or other payment information for each payee (to the extent payable to a third party); and

(11) a final estimate, reasonably detailed, of Cash and Cash Equivalents as of immediately prior to the Closing (the “Estimated Cash”), and Restricted Cash as of immediately prior to the Closing.

(b) In connection with the delivery of the Closing Statement, the Company will ensure that Parent will receive:

(1) from each Person set forth on the Closing Statement to whom Company Indebtedness for borrowed money is owed and will be paid off at Closing or, in the case of the Credit Agreement (as defined on the Disclosure Schedule), the administrative agent under the Credit Agreement, payoff letters, in commercially reasonable form, specifying the amount necessary to be paid to fully repay, satisfy, release and discharge all obligations of the Company and its Subsidiaries under such Company Indebtedness, which payoff letters will set forth the principal amount of the obligation, any prepayment premiums or fees or termination fees with respect thereto, any accrued interest thereon and any expense reimbursement or other amounts due in respect thereof, will provide wire instructions and will provide for the release of, or authorize the Company to release, all Encumbrances associated with such Company Indebtedness and the termination of all other obligations associated therewith upon the payment of such outstanding amounts; and

(2) from all vendors and payees of Transaction Expenses as set forth in the Closing Statement, final invoices, in commercially reasonable form, specifying the amount necessary to fully pay all Transaction Expenses owed to each such Person.

(c) At least two Business Days before the Closing, the Company will deliver to Parent a written statement (the “Funds Flow Statement”), in a form reasonably acceptable to Parent, setting forth the amounts to be paid by Parent at Closing pursuant to this Agreement and the Related Agreements and the recipients of, and bank wire details for, such payments.

Section 4.11 Expenses. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement or the Related Agreements, each Party will be responsible for the expenses and costs that it incurs with respect to the negotiation, execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the Related Agreements, including, but not limited to, any such costs and expenses incurred by any Party in connection with the negotiation, preparation and performance of and compliance with the terms of this Agreement (including the fees and expenses of legal counsel, accountants, investment bankers or other representatives and consultants), regardless of whether the Transactions are consummated. For purposes herein, “Transaction Expenses” means all fees and expenses incurred by the Company and its Subsidiaries, or on their respective behalf, or otherwise payable by the Company, in each case in connection with the Transactions or exploring, assessing or negotiating an Acquisition Transaction and whether or not paid by the Closing Date, including (a) all legal, accounting, investment banking, financial advisory, consulting, finders and other fees and expenses of third parties incurred by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with the negotiation and effectuation of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Related Agreements and the Transactions, (b) the premium for the insurance policies referenced in Section 4.16, (c) 50% of any Transfer Taxes in accordance with Section 1.8(b), and (d) all amounts relating to severance payments, bonuses, accelerated benefits, success bonuses, sale bonuses, phantom equity, retention payments, change of control payments and any other similar obligations (plus the employer portion of any employment, payroll, social security or other Taxes related to such amounts), in each case, in existence as of the Closing Date and to the extent payable by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries solely as a result of the consummation of the Transactions. Parent shall be responsible for (1) the fees payable to the Escrow Agent pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, (2) the fees payable to the Exchange Agent, (3) 50% of any Transfer Taxes in accordance with Section 1.8(b), (4) the filing fees for the filings and submissions by the Parties and their respective Affiliates required under the HSR Act and with respect to the Required Foreign Filing, (5) the premium for the insurance policy referenced in Section 4.21, and (7) the premiums, fees, costs, expenses and other amounts required to be paid for the issuance of the R&W Insurance Policy. For the avoidance of doubt, any item included in “Transaction Expenses” shall not be included in “Current Liabilities” or “Company Indebtedness”, in each case, solely to the extent such item actually decreases the Merger Consideration as a result thereof (it being understood and agreed that the intent of this sentence is to avoid duplication or “double counting” of the same liability hereunder).

Section 4.12 Employee Matters.

(a) Immediately following the Closing, each employee employed by the Company or its Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Closing shall continue employment with the Company or its Subsidiaries or become employed by Parent or an Affiliate thereof (each such employee, a “Transferred Employee”). For at least one year following the Closing, each Transferred Employee will be entitled to receive severance benefits upon a termination of employment by Parent, the Surviving Company or any of their Subsidiaries (other than for “cause”) equal to the severance benefits such Transferred Employee would be entitled to receive under the Company’s severance arrangements.

(b) Following the execution of this Agreement, to the extent that any “disqualified individual” (within the meaning of Section 280G(c) of the Code and the regulations thereunder) has the right to receive any payments that would reasonably be expected to constitute “excess parachute payments” (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and the regulations thereunder) (the “280G Benefits”) the Company shall (1) no later than four days prior to the Closing Date solicit from each such “disqualified individual” a waiver of such disqualified individual’s rights to some or all of such payments or benefits (the “Waived 280G Benefits”) so that any remaining payments and/or benefits shall not be deemed to be “excess parachute payments” (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and the regulations thereunder) and deliver such waivers to Parent, provided that such waiver and the Waived 280G Benefits shall not include any payments or benefits that may be made by Parent or any of its Affiliates unless at least five days prior to the Closing, Parent provides the applicable information regarding any Contract that Parent or any of its Affiliates is providing or entering into on or prior to the Closing Date with respect to any “disqualified individual,” along with a written description, satisfying the adequate disclosure requirements of Section 280G(b)(5)(B)(ii) of the Code, of any such Contract and the amount or value of any such payment or benefit reasonably expected to constitute a “parachute payment”, and (2) following the delivery of the waivers to Parent, but no later than two days prior to the Closing Date, with respect to each individual who agrees to the waiver described in clause (1), submit to a vote of Company Members entitled to vote on such matters the right of any such “disqualified individual” to receive the Waived 280G Benefits, in a manner complying with Section 280G(b)(5) of the Code, including Q/A-7 of Section 1.280G-1 of the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, along with adequate disclosure satisfying such requirements. Prior to soliciting waivers and Company Member approval under this Section 4.12(b), the Company shall provide drafts of such waivers and Company Member approval materials to Parent for its review and comment (and shall not unreasonably omit any comments timely provided by Parent). The Company shall, prior to Closing, deliver to Parent evidence that a vote of Company Members was solicited in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section and that either (x) the requisite number of votes of Company Members was obtained with respect to the Waived 280G Benefits (the “280G Approval”) or (y) the 280G Approval was not obtained, and, as a result, no Waived 280G Benefits shall be made or provided; provided that, in no event shall this Section 4.12(b) be construed to require the Company to (A) compel any Person to waive any existing rights under any Contract that such Person has with the Company or any other Person, and in no event shall the Company be deemed in breach of this Section 4.12(b) if any such Person refuses to waive any such rights or (B) actually obtain the 280G Approval. In the absence of the 280G Approval, no Waived 280G Benefits shall be paid or provided.

(c) On the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to Parent a true and complete list of each current or former employee of the Company or its Subsidiaries who experienced an “employment loss” (as defined under WARN) during the 90 days prior to the Closing Date. For a period of 90 days after the Closing Date, none of Parent or any of its Affiliates shall terminate any Transferred Employees in such numbers as could trigger any Liability under WARN or any analogous Laws. Parent shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Company and its Subsidiaries from any and all obligations or Liabilities of the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries arising under WARN or any analogous Law as a result, in whole or in part, of any actions taken by Parent or its Affiliates on or after the Closing Date.

(d) Prior to the Closing Date, the board of managers (or equivalent governing body) of the Company’s Subsidiaries that sponsor Company Employee Plans that are intended to qualify as qualified cash or deferred arrangements under Section 401(k) of the Code (each, a “Company 401(k) Plan”) shall adopt written consents terminating each such Company 401(k) Plan, with such terminations to be effective no later than the day prior to the Closing Date. No Employee shall have any right after the effective dates of such terminations to contribute any amounts to any Company 401(k) Plan. Prior to the Closing, the Company shall provide Parent with copies of such written consents that have been duly adopted. Parent shall take such actions as are necessary to offer 401(k) plan participation to Transferred Employees as soon as administratively possible following the Closing Date, on terms and conditions similar to Parent’s and its Affiliates’ other similarly situated employees, and shall recognize prior service with the Company and its Subsidiaries for purposes of eligibility and vesting under such 401(k) plan.

(e) Prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall amend the Company Unit Plans in accordance with Section 4.12(e) of the Disclosure Schedule and the Company shall take all actions necessary, including adopting written consents, so that the Company Unit Plans, as amended in accordance with this Section 4.12(e), shall be in full force and effect as of the Closing.

(f) Nothing in this Section 4.12 shall be treated as an amendment of, an undertaking to amend or terminate, or a limitation on the ability of Parent or its Affiliates to amend or terminate any Employee Benefit Plans. Nothing herein shall require Parent, the Company or any of their Affiliates to continue to employ the services of any individual after the Closing Date. No provision hereof shall create any third-party beneficiary rights in any current or former employee or any other natural person service provider of any of the Company or its Subsidiaries or any beneficiary, dependents, or other individual associated therewith for the compensation, terms and conditions of employment and benefits that may be provided.

Section 4.13 Tax Matters.

(a) Termination of Tax Sharing Agreements. All Tax sharing, allocation, indemnity or similar agreements with respect to or involving the Company or any of its Subsidiaries will be terminated as of the Closing Date and neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries will have any further liability thereunder (other than any such Tax sharing, allocation, indemnity or similar agreements (x) entered into in the ordinary course of business the primary purpose of which is unrelated to Taxes or (y) solely between the Company and/or its Subsidiaries).

(b) Termination of Powers of Attorney. Except as set forth on Section 4.13(b) of the Disclosure Schedule, any power of attorney with respect to Taxes or Tax Returns of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries will be terminated as of the Closing Date.

(c) Tax Returns. The Company will prepare and timely file, or cause to be prepared and timely filed, at its own expense, all Tax Returns of the Company and its Subsidiaries for all Pre-Closing Tax Periods and Straddle Periods (each, a “Pre-Closing Tax Return”). Each such Pre-Closing Tax Return will be prepared in a manner consistent with past practices employed with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries, except as otherwise required by applicable Law. With respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Return that is an income Tax Return to be filed prior to the Closing, the Company will use reasonable best efforts to deliver, or cause to be delivered, a draft of such Pre-Closing Tax Return to Parent no later than 30 days prior to the filing due date for such Tax Return (or such shorter period as is reasonable under the circumstances, including to the extent any such Tax Return is due within 30 days of the date hereof) for Parent’s review and comment, and the Company will make, or cause to be made, any reasonable changes to such Tax Return that are requested by Parent and that are received in writing by the Company no later than ten days prior to such filing due date (or such shorter period as is reasonable under the circumstances), and the Company will not file or cause to be filed any such Tax Return without the prior written consent of Parent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). With respect to an Pre-Closing Tax Return to be filed after the Closing, Parent will deliver, or cause to be delivered, a draft of such Pre-Closing Tax Return to the Representative no later than 30 days prior to the filing due date for such Tax Return for the Representative’s review and comment, and Parent will make, or cause to be made, any reasonable changes to such Pre-Closing Tax Return that are requested by the Representative and that are received in writing by Parent no later than ten days prior to such filing due date (or such shorter period as is reasonable under the circumstances), and Parent will not file or cause to be filed any such Pre-Closing Tax Return without the prior written consent of the Representative (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Notwithstanding the forgoing, to the extent supportable at a “should” level of comfort under applicable Tax Law, Parent shall treat any Transaction Tax Deductions as deductible in a Pre-Closing Tax Period (or portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date) to the extent permitted by applicable Law.

(d) Straddle Periods. In the case of any Tax period that includes but does not end on the Closing Date (a “Straddle Period”), the amount of Pre-Closing Taxes based on or measured by income, payroll or receipts or relating to any sales or use Tax will be determined based on an interim closing of the books as of the close of business on the Closing Date, and the amount of any Pre-Closing Taxes not based on or measured by income or receipts or relating to any sales or use Tax for a Straddle Period will be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the Straddle Period that begins on and includes the first day of the Straddle Period and that ends on and includes the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the total number of days in such Straddle Period.

(e) Cooperation on Tax Matters. Parent and the Representative shall provide reasonable cooperation, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other Party, in connection with the preparation and filing of any Tax Return and any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation shall include the retention and the provision of records and information and powers of attorney that are reasonably relevant to any such Tax Return, audit, litigation or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder.

(f) Post-Closing Actions. Parent and its Affiliates (including, on or after the Closing Date, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) shall not (1) file (except as set forth in Section 4.13(c) or amend a Tax Return of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for a Pre-Closing Tax Period, (2) extend or waive the applicable statute of limitations with respect to a Tax of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for a Pre-Closing Tax Period, (3) file any ruling or request with any taxing authority that relates to Taxes or Tax Returns of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for a Pre-Closing Tax Period, (4) enter into any voluntary disclosure with any taxing authority regarding any Tax or Tax Returns of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for a Pre-Closing Tax Period or (5) make any Tax election with respect to t the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (including an election under Section 336 or 338 of the Code or any similar provision of foreign, state or local law) that relates to, or is retroactive to, a Pre-Closing Tax Period, in each case, without the prior written consent of the Representative (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) if any such action could reasonably be expected to (1) have any Tax impact on the Company Holders, (2) impact the calculation of Merger Consideration, as finally determined pursuant to Section 1.7, or (3) give rise to an indemnity claim pursuant to Article 7.

(g) Tax Contests.

(1) Parent, on one hand, and Representative, on the other hand, shall promptly notify (but in no event later than ten days) the other in writing upon receipt of a written notice of any issues in any pending or threatened Tax audits, assessments or other proceeding with respect to Taxes of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, in each case, if any such audit, assessment or other proceeding could reasonably be expected to (A) have any Tax impact on the Company Holders, (B) impact the calculation of Merger Consideration, as finally determined pursuant to Section 1.7, or (C) give rise to an indemnity claim pursuant to Article 7 (“Tax Contest”); and

(2) Parent shall have the right to control the conduct of any such Tax Contest and to employ counsel of its choice; provided, however, (A) the Representative shall have the right to participate in any such Tax Contest, at its own expense and (B) Parent shall keep the Representative reasonably informed of the status of such Tax Contest (including providing the Representative with copies of all written correspondence regarding such Tax Contest). The Parties each agree to consult with and to keep the other parties hereto informed on a regular basis regarding the status of any Tax Contest to the extent that such Tax Contest could affect a liability of such other parties (including indemnity obligations hereunder). To the extent the provisions of this Section 4.13(g) conflict with any other provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of this Section 4.13(g) shall prevail.

Section 4.14 Termination and Amendment of Contracts.

(a) Except for this Agreement, the Related Agreements and those agreements set forth on Section 4.14(a) of the Disclosure Schedule, the Company will terminate all Contracts between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and any Related Parties (excluding those Persons who are directors or officers of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and are parties to such Contracts in their capacities as such), on the other hand, on or prior to the Closing Date, in each case without any remaining Liability on the part of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, the Surviving Company or Parent as a result of or in connection with such termination or such Contract (except as therein specifically provided).

(b) The Company will cause the Contracts listed in Section 4.14(b) of the Disclosure Schedule to be terminated and be of no further effect as of the Closing Date, in each case without any remaining Liability of any kind on the part of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, the Surviving Company or Parent as a result of or in connection with such termination or such Contract (except as therein specifically provided).

(c) The Company will cause the Contracts listed in Section 4.14(c) of the Disclosure Schedule to be amended to the reasonable satisfaction of Parent specifically as reflected on Section 4.14(c) of the Disclosure Schedule before or as of the Closing Date.

(d) Parent will not have any Liability to the Company or any other Person for any Liabilities resulting from the Company seeking to obtain such terminations or amendments referred to in this Section 4.14 (except as therein specifically provided).

Section 4.15 R&W Insurance Policy. On the date hereof, Parent has caused the binder agreement for the R&W Insurance Policy to be conditionally bound effective as of the date hereof (such binder agreement and the associated form of R&W Insurance Policy has been made available to the Company). Without limiting Section 4.11, Parent will pay, or cause to be paid, all premiums, fees, costs, expenses and other amounts required to be paid for the R&W Insurance Policy. Parent acknowledges and agrees that the R&W Insurance Policy shall include a provision whereby the insurer thereunder expressly waives, and agrees not to pursue any subrogation rights against any Company Holder with respect to any claim made by any insured thereunder (except in case of Fraud by such person), and such terms shall not be amended, modified or waived under the R&W Insurance Policy without the prior written consent of the Representative. The Company and its Subsidiaries shall not, and the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its representatives and Affiliates to not, take any action that would cause the R&W Insurance Policy be invalid or unenforceable. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to assist Parent in satisfying any conditions under the R&W Insurance Policy with respect to the Closing.

Section 4.16 Restrictive Covenant Agreements. The Company and its Subsidiaries shall not, and the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its representatives and Affiliates to not, take any action that would cause the Restrictive Covenant Agreements executed and delivered concurrently with the execution of this Agreement to be invalid or unenforceable. The Company shall cause the Restrictive Covenant Agreement entered into by the Representative to be in full force and effect as of the Effective Time.

Section 4.17 Offer Letter. The Company and its Subsidiaries shall not, and the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its representatives and Affiliates to not, take any action that would cause any Offer Letter executed and delivered concurrently with the execution of this Agreement to be invalid or unenforceable.

Section 4.18 D&O Insurance Policy. Prior to the Closing Date, the Company will purchase and fully pay the premium for directors and officers (D&O) runoff insurance coverage, which by its terms will survive the Closing and will provide runoff coverage for not less than six years following the Closing Date, having limits, terms and conditions no less favorable in all material respects than the terms of the D&O liability insurance policies currently maintained by the Company or its Subsidiaries. Such insurance will be bound not later than the Closing Date. For a period of six years from the Closing Date, Parent shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to perform its obligations to any current or former director, manager, officer or person holding a comparable position at the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (an “Indemnified D&O”) to indemnify, compensate, reimburse, hold harmless, exculpate, or advance expenses to such Indemnified D&O, in each case, pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Organizational Documents of the Company and its Subsidiaries and any indemnification agreement, in each case to the extent in effect as of the date of this Agreement, and, in each case, solely with respect to actions taken by such Indemnified D&O prior to the Closing in his or her capacity as a director, manager, officer or person holding a comparable position at the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

Section 4.19 Letters of Resignation. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to, except to the extent requested by Parent, obtain letters of resignation, in a form attached hereto as Exhibit I, effective as of the Closing, duly executed by each of the directors and officers of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries that is not an employee of Vista.

Section 4.20 E&O Insurance Policy. Unless otherwise requested by Parent prior to the Closing Date, the Company will purchase errors and omissions (E&O) runoff insurance coverage, which by its terms will survive the Closing and will provide runoff coverage for not less than three years following the Closing Date, having limits, terms and conditions no less favorable in all material respects than the terms of the E&O liability insurance policies currently maintained by the Company. Such insurance will be bound not later than the Closing Date, provided, however, that the premium payable in respect of such E&O runoff insurance coverage will be either be paid by Parent or, if fully paid by the Company prior to Closing, credited against Transaction Expenses.

Section 4.21 Financing Covenants.

(a) To the extent that any of the “Permanent Financing” (as defined in the Commitment Letter) is not available to Parent and/or Merger Sub at or prior to the Closing, each of Parent and Merger Sub shall use reasonable best efforts to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary to arrange and obtain proceeds of the Initial Financing in an amount that when aggregated with cash and cash equivalents on hand that is available to Parent will be sufficient to consummate the Transactions set forth in this Agreement as promptly as reasonably practicable on the terms and conditions described in the Commitment Letter (including the “flex” provisions contained in any fee letters), (or on other terms and conditions agreed by Parent and the Financing Sources, and consented to by the Company) including by using reasonable best efforts to: (1) maintain in effect the Commitment Letter, subject to the modifications permitted hereunder; (2) negotiate as promptly as possible, and enter into, definitive agreements relating to the Initial Financing at or prior to the Closing (including, as necessary, the “flex” provisions contained in the any fee letters); (3) satisfy (or obtain a waiver thereof) and to cause their Representatives to satisfy, on a timely basis all conditions applicable to Parent, Merger Sub or their respective Representatives in the Commitment Letter to the extent the failure to satisfy such conditions would adversely impact the timing of the Closing or the availability at Closing of sufficient aggregate proceeds of the Initial Financing to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, in each case only to the extent within their respective control; (4) assuming that all conditions contained in the Commitment Letter have been satisfied or waived, cause the Initial Financing to be consummated at or prior to the Closing; and (5) enforce its rights under the Commitment Letter. Parent shall respond reasonably promptly to any requests from the Company for information on the status of Parent’s efforts to arrange the Financing.

(b) Parent and Merger Sub shall not agree to, or permit, without the prior written consent of the Company, any assignment, amendment, supplement or modification to be made to, replacement, restatement or substitution of, or any waiver by Parent or Merger Sub of any material provision or remedy under, the Commitment Letter (including with respect to any alternative financing intended to replace or be substituted for, in whole or in part, any portion of the Financing) if such assignment, amendment, supplement, modification, replacement, restatement, substitution or waiver (1) reduces the aggregate amount of the net cash proceeds of the Financing to be funded on the Closing Date, to an amount that, when aggregated with cash and cash equivalents on hand that is available to the Parent, would be insufficient to consummate the Transactions set forth in this Agreement, (2) imposes new or additional conditions precedent or otherwise materially expands, amends or modifies any of the conditions precedent to the receipt of the Financing, in each case in a manner that would reasonably be expected to prevent, materially impede or materially delay the consummation of the Financing, or (3) adversely and materially impacts the ability of Parent to enforce its rights against other parties to the Debt Commitment Letter with respect to the Financing; provided, that Parent may amend, modify, assign, supplement, substitute, replace or restate the Commitment Letter to add (A) lenders, lead arrangers, bookrunners, syndication agents and similar entities, and grant customary approval rights to such additional lenders, lead arrangers, agents, managers and bookrunners, or (B) increase the aggregate amount of the Financing, subject to the foregoing clauses (1) through (3).

(c) In the event that any portion of the Initial Financing becomes unavailable in the manner or from the sources contemplated in the Commitment Letter for any reason whatsoever, and such portion is necessary to permit Parent and Merger Sub to consummate the Transactions contemplated by this Agreement (except in accordance with the express terms set forth in the Commitment Letter or unless concurrently replaced on a dollar-for-dollar basis by commitments subject to substantially the same conditions precedent as those set forth in the Commitment Letter from the Financing Sources, or from other financing sources or from proceeds of other sources of financing or cash), then (i) Parent shall promptly so notify the Company and (ii) Parent and Merger Sub shall use commercially reasonable efforts to arrange and obtain, and negotiate and enter into commitment letters and/or definitive agreements with respect to, alternative financing arrangements in an amount sufficient when added to the portion of the Financing (if any) and cash on hand that is available and will be funded at or prior to the Closing, to consummate the Transactions contemplated by this Agreement and to pay all related fees and expenses upon terms and conditions not less favorable to the Company (solely with respect to conditionality) and that are, when taken as a whole, not materially less favorable to Parent than those in the Commitment Letter (including the “flex” provisions contained in any fee letter), as promptly as practicable following the occurrence of such event (and in any event no later than the Closing Date).

(b) With respect to Losses claimed pursuant to Section 7.3, other than with respect to claims of Fraud, an Indemnified Person’s sole recourse hereunder with respect to Losses shall be to the Escrow Fund. Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 7.4(a), prior to the Claim Period Expiration Date, any indemnification and recovery for Losses to which an Indemnified Person is entitled under Section 7.3(a) of this Agreement shall be satisfied by pursuing such Losses under the R&W Insurance Policy, provided that, only to the extent such Losses are not covered by or not otherwise recoverable under, or are not available under, the R&W Insurance Policy, including due to the retention thereunder not being satisfied (and in any case, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 7.4(a)), such Indemnified Person shall be entitled to recover such amount from the Escrow Fund.

(c) An Indemnified Party shall not directly or indirectly otherwise pursue any Liability Claim directly against any Indemnifying Party (other than with respect to Liability Claims of Fraud). To the extent an Indemnified Person recovers insurance proceeds related to any Loss, then such Loss and any indemnification payment related thereto shall be net of (1) any such proceeds actually received (net of the costs and expenses of recovering such amount, including the cost of any increased premiums resulting therefrom) and (2) any Tax benefits actually realized by any party seeking indemnification hereunder arising from any such Losses in the taxable year of such Loss and/or the following two taxable years, and each Indemnified Person shall use commercially reasonable efforts to recover any such available insurance proceeds and to claim any available Tax benefit resulting from such Loss.

(e) No Indemnifying Party will have any right of contribution, right of indemnity or other right or remedy against Parent or the Surviving Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries in connection with any indemnification obligation or any other liability to which such Indemnifying Party may become subject pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement solely by reason of the fact that such Indemnifying Party was an equityholder, partner, director, manager, officer, employee or agent of the Company or its Subsidiaries or was serving at the request of the Company or its Subsidiaries as a partner, trustee, manager, officer, employee or agent of another entity. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in the preceding sentence shall limit the rights of such Indemnifying Parties who are or were directors or officers of the Company or its Subsidiaries to pursue claims against or recovery under the D&O Policy in their capacity as directors or officers.

(f) No Indemnified Person’s rights pursuant to this Article 7 will be adversely affected by any investigation conducted, or any knowledge acquired or capable of being acquired, by an Indemnified Person at any time, whether before or after the execution or delivery of this Agreement or the Closing, or by the waiver of any condition to Closing. No Indemnified Person will be required to show reliance on any representation, warranty, certificate or other agreement in order for such Indemnified Person to be entitled to indemnification hereunder.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement will (1) prevent any Indemnified Person from bringing an Action for Fraud against an Indemnifying Party, or (2) limit the Losses recoverable by such Indemnified Person in such Action. Any representation or warranty, (a) with respect to an Indemnified Person, made by or on behalf of the Company in this Agreement that such Indemnified Person asserts was breached as a result of the Fraud alleged in an Action by such Indemnified Person or (b) with respect to a Company Holder Indemnified Person, made by or on behalf of Parent or Merger Sub in this Agreement that such Company Holder Indemnified Person asserts was breached as a result of the Fraud alleged in an Action by such Company Holder Indemnified Person will, solely with respect to such Action for Fraud, survive the expiration of the applicable survival period set forth in Section 7.1(a) and remain in full force and effect until the final resolution of the Action.

(h) Indemnified Persons shall not have any right to indemnification for Taxes under this Article 7 to the extent that the applicable Losses (1) are attributable to a taxable period (or portion thereof) beginning after the Closing Date (except for Losses for Taxes attributable to a breach of the representations and warranties contained in Section 2.10(c) (only to the extent that such representation or warranty to a ruling or “closing agreement” that impacts Taxes payable in a Post-Closing Tax Period or Post-Closing Straddle Period), Section 2.10(e), Section 2.10(j) or Section 2.10(n)), (2) are incurred as a result of a transaction occurring on the Closing Date but after the Closing, (3) are due to the unavailability in any taxable period (or portion thereof) beginning after the Closing Date of any credits or other Tax attributes from a Pre-Closing Tax Period, (4) are incurred as a result of a breach by Parent of its Affiliates (including, on or after the Closing Date, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) of Section 4.13(f), (5) are included in the Final Closing statement or (6) that are attributable to the manner in which the Parent finances the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 7.5 Escrow Claim Period. The period during which claims for indemnification from the Escrow Fund may be initiated will commence at the Closing Date and terminate at 11:59 p.m. New York time on the date that is 12 months after the Closing Date (the “Claim Period Expiration Date”). Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement to the contrary, on the Claim Period Expiration Date such portion of the Escrow Fund as may be necessary in the judgment of Parent to satisfy any unresolved or unsatisfied Liability Claims specified in any Claims Notice delivered to the Escrow Agent before the Claim Period Expiration Date will remain in the Escrow Fund until such Liability Claims have been resolved or satisfied.

Section 7.6 Claims for Indemnification. At any time that an Indemnified Person suffers a Losses (and in any event, as soon as reasonably practicable) for which it is permitted to make a claim for indemnification under Section 7.3 (a “Liability Claim”), Parent will deliver notice of such Liability Claim (a “Claims Notice”) to the Representative; without limiting the foregoing, to the extent any such Liability Claim is based on a written notice or claim (in each case, other than if threatened in an email) made against an Indemnified Person by a third party, then Parent will use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver the Claims Notice related thereto within 60 days of receipt of such written notice or claim. If Parent seeks recovery from the Escrow Fund, then Parent will deliver a Claims Notice to the Escrow Agent concurrently with delivery of a Claims Notice to the Representative. A Claims Notice will (a) be signed by an officer of Parent, (b) describe the Liability Claim in reasonable detail, (c) indicate the amount (estimated, if necessary and to the extent feasible) of the Losses that have been sustained by the Indemnified Persons and (d) be accompanied by reasonable detail and documentation to support the claims and conclusions asserted in (b) and (c) above. If the amount of Losses is not determinable as of the date of delivery of a Claims Notice, then Parent may deliver a Claims Notice stating the reasonable amount of Losses that Parent in good faith estimates or anticipates that an Indemnified Person may sustain. Parent’s provision of an estimated or anticipated amount of Loss will not limit the Losses recoverable or recovered by an Indemnified Person. No delay in or failure to give a Claims Notice by Parent to the Representative (or, in the case of a Liability Claim seeking recovery from the Escrow Fund, the Escrow Agent) pursuant to this Section 7.6 will adversely affect any of the other rights or remedies that Parent has under this Agreement or alter or relieve the Company Holders of their obligations to indemnify the Indemnified Persons pursuant to this Article 7, except and to the extent that such delay or failure has materially prejudiced the Company Holders.

Section 7.7 Objections to and Payment of Claims.

(a) The Representative may object to any Liability Claim set forth in a Claims Notice by delivering written notice to Parent (and concurrently to the Escrow Agent if a Claims Notice was delivered to the Escrow Agent) of the Representative’s objection (an “Objection Notice”). Such Objection Notice must describe the grounds for such objection in reasonable detail.

(b) If an Objection Notice is not delivered by the Representative to Parent (and concurrently to the Escrow Agent if a Claims Notice was delivered to the Escrow Agent) within 30 days after delivery by Parent of the Claims Notice, such failure to so object will be an irrevocable acknowledgment by each Party (including the Representative) that the Indemnified Persons are entitled to indemnification under Section 7.3 for the Losses set forth in such Claims Notice in accordance with this Article 7.

(c) If the Claims Notice was delivered to the Escrow Agent and the Representative and no Objection Notice was delivered to the Escrow Agent within 30 days of the delivery of the Claims Notice, or an Objection Notice was delivered to the Escrow Agent within 30 days of the delivery of the Claims Notice, but such Objection Notice states that it was, or admits liability, only with respect to a portion of the Losses claimed in the Claims Notice, the Escrow Agent will deliver to Parent as soon as practicable cash from the Escrow Fund having a value equal to (1) the amount of the Losses set forth in such Claims Notice, if no Objection Notice was delivered to the Escrow Agent, or (2) the amount of the portion of the Losses set forth in such Claims Notice to which no objection was made, if an Objection Notice was delivered to the Escrow Agent, except that, to the extent that the amount of the Losses set forth in the Claims Notice (or portion thereof) is an estimate, Parent (on behalf of itself or any other Indemnified Person) will not be so entitled to receive, and the Escrow Agent will not deliver, funds in respect of such portions of such estimated Losses unless and until the amount of such estimated Losses is finally determined.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Indemnifying Parties do not have any individual right to object to any claim made in a Claims Notice under this Article 7, and any and all claims made in a Claims Notice on behalf of the Indemnified Persons may be objected to only by the Representative.

(e) Promptly following the Claim Period Expiration Date and periodically thereafter, the Escrow Agent will release for distribution to the Indemnifying Parties according to their Aggregate Escrow Funding Percentages an amount equal to (1) the balance of the Escrow Fund less (2) the aggregate amount of payments made out of the Escrow Fund to the Indemnified Persons prior to the Claim Period Expiration Date, and less (3) the aggregate amounts necessary in the judgment of Parent to satisfy any then-unresolved or unsatisfied claims for Losses specified in any Claims Notice delivered to the Escrow Agent prior to the Claim Period Expiration Date pursuant to Section 7.6. Any distributions to be made in respect of Company Units and Restricted Stock Units will be made to the Exchange Agent for distribution to the Company Members, and any distributions to be made in respect of Company Options will be made to the Surviving Company for distribution to the Indemnifying Parties, in each case subject to Section 1.8.

Section 7.8 Resolution of Objections to Claims. If the Representative objects in writing to any Liability Claim made in any Claims Notice within 30 days after delivery of such Claims Notice, the Representative and Parent will attempt to agree upon the rights of Parent and the Indemnifying Parties with respect to each such claim. If the Representative and Parent should so agree, they will enter into an agreement setting forth such rights. To the extent that a Liability Claim is recoverable, and Parent seeks recovery, from the Escrow Fund pursuant to Section 7.4, a copy of the agreement will be delivered to the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent will be entitled to rely on any such agreement and will distribute cash as soon as practicable from the Escrow Fund in accordance with the terms of such memorandum. If no such agreement can be reached within 30 days after delivery of an Objection Notice, either Parent or the Representative (on behalf of the Indemnifying Parties) may bring an Action against the other to resolve the dispute in accordance with Section 8.8.

Section 7.9 Third-Party Claims. If Parent receives written notice of a third-party claim that Parent believes may result in a Liability Claim by or on behalf of an Indemnified Person, Parent will notify the Representative of such third-party claim as set forth in Section 7.6 and provide the Representative the opportunity to participate at the Representative’s own cost in, but not direct or conduct, any defense of such claim. The Representative will not be provided such opportunity to the extent that Parent determines that such participation could result in the loss of (a) any attorney-client privilege or right under the work-product doctrine of Parent or any Indemnified Person, or (b) coverage under the R&W Insurance Policy, in each case in respect of such claim. The Representative’s participation will be subject to Parent’s right to control such defense and Section 7.11(f). Parent will have the right in its sole discretion to settle any such claim, but if the settlement is without the consent of the Representative, the settlement will not be determinative of the amount of Losses relating to such matter. If the Representative consents to any such settlement, then neither the Representative nor any Indemnifying Party will have any power or authority to object to the amount or validity of any claim by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person for indemnity with respect to such settlement. The Representative will be deemed to have been given consent to a settlement if the Representative has not objected within 20 days after a written request for consent to such settlement by Parent. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any costs and expenses of investigation or defense, including court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred or suffered by the Indemnified Persons in connection with any third-party claim alleging matters that would constitute the failure of a representation or a breach of warranty to be true and correct or be the basis of a claim for any other matter specified in Section 7.3, whether or not it is ultimately determined that there was such a failure to be true and correct or basis for a claim, will constitute Losses subject to indemnification under Section 7.3.

Section 7.10 Exercise of Remedies; Exclusive Remedy; Release.

(a) Exercise of Remedies Other Than by Parent. No Indemnified Person (other than Parent or any successor thereto or assign thereof) shall be permitted to directly assert any Liability Claim or exercise any other remedy under this Agreement unless Parent (or any successor thereto or assign thereof) shall, in its sole discretion, have consented in writing to the assertion of such Liability Claim or the exercise of such other remedy.

(b) Exclusive Remedy. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that from and after the Closing, the indemnification provisions in this Article 7 and the R&W Insurance Policy shall be the exclusive remedy of the Indemnified Persons with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and no Indemnified Persons shall have any other rights or remedies in connection with any breach of this Agreement, in each case, except for (1) specific performance or injunctive relief with respect to any covenant to be performed in whole or in part at or following the Closing, (2) remedies under any Related Agreement, (3) remedies for Fraud or (4) remedies with respect to disputes under Section 1.7 (which disputes will be resolved in accordance with the dispute resolution mechanism set forth in Section 1.7).

Section 7.11 Representative.

(a) At the Effective Time, Vista will be constituted and appointed as the Representative. Each Indemnifying Party hereby irrevocably appoints the Representative as the agent, proxy and attorney-in-fact for such Indemnifying Party for all purposes of this Agreement, including full powers and authority on such Indemnifying Party’s behalf to (1) consummate the Transactions, (2) enter into the Escrow Agreement, (3) give and receive notices and communications to or from Parent (on behalf of itself or any other Indemnified Person) relating to this Agreement or any of the other Transactions; (4) pay expenses (whether incurred on or after the date hereof) incurred in connection with the negotiation and performance of this Agreement, (5) disburse any funds received hereunder to such Indemnifying Party and each other Indemnifying Party, (6) authorize deliveries to Parent of cash or other property from the Escrow Fund and legally bind each Indemnifying Party to pay cash directly to Parent in satisfaction of claims asserted by Parent (on behalf of itself or any other Indemnified Person, including by not objecting to such claims); (7) object to such claims in accordance with Section 7.7; (8) consent or agree to, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, and demand arbitration and comply with Orders with respect to, such claims; (9) take all actions necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing, in each case without having to seek or obtain the consent of any Person under any circumstance, and (10) subject to Section 6.3, execute for and on behalf of each Indemnifying Party any amendment to this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement or any exhibit, annex or schedule hereto or thereto (including for the purpose of amending addresses or sharing percentages). This appointment of agency and this power of attorney is coupled with an interest and will be irrevocable and will not be terminated by any Indemnifying Party or by operation of Law, whether by the death or incapacity of any Indemnifying Party or the occurrence of any other event, and any action taken by the Representative will be as valid as if such death, incapacity or other event had not occurred, regardless of whether or not any Indemnifying Party or the Representative will have received any notice thereof.

Section 8.5 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Confidentiality Agreement, the Related Agreements and the documents, instruments and other agreements specifically referred to in this Agreement or therein or delivered pursuant hereto or thereto, including all exhibits and schedules hereto and thereto, constitute the entire agreement of the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersede all prior agreements, term sheets, letters of interest, correspondence (including e-mail) and undertakings, both written and oral, between the Company, on the one hand, and Parent, on the other hand, with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, except for the Confidentiality Agreement, which will continue in full force and effect, and will survive any termination of this Agreement, in accordance with its terms.

Section 8.8 Governing Law. This Agreement and the Transactions and all claims and Actions arising in whole or in part out of, related to, based upon, or in connection herewith shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the domestic Laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to any choice or conflict of Law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the Laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware.

Section 8.9 Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. Each Party and each Company Holder (a) irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, New Castle County, or, if that court does not have jurisdiction, a federal court sitting in Wilmington, Delaware (and in each case, any appellate courts thereof) in any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the Transactions, (b) agrees that all claims in respect of such Action may be heard and determined in any such court, (c) irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that it shall not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court and (d) agrees not to bring any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the Transactions in any other court.

Each of the Parties and each Company Holder irrevocably and unconditionally waives any defense of inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any Action so brought and waives any bond, surety or other security that might be required of any Party with respect thereto. Any Party may make service on another Party by sending or delivering a copy of the process to the Party to be served at the address and in the manner provided for the giving of notices in Section 8.3.

TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH PARTY AND EACH COMPANY HOLDER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (INCLUDING WITH RESPECT TO THE FINANCING SOURCES). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, including Section 8.14, the parties hereto acknowledge and irrevocably agree (1) that any action or proceeding, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or tort or otherwise, involving the Financing Sources arising out of or related to the transactions contemplated hereby, the Financing or the performance of services thereunder or related thereto shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York, and any appellate court thereof and each party hereto submits for itself and its property with respect to any such action or proceeding to the exclusive jurisdiction of such court and (2) that any such action or proceeding shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without regard to the conflicts of law rules of such State that would result in the application of the laws of any other State.

Section 8.10 Specific Performance. The rights and remedies of the Parties will be cumulative (and not alternative).

Each of the Parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that any other Party has an adequate remedy at Law or that any award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at Law or in equity. Any Party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement will not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such Order.

Section 8.11 Counterparts.

Certain information set forth in the Disclosure Schedule is included solely for information purposes and may not be required to be disclosed pursuant to this Agreement. The inclusion of an item in a Disclosure Schedule as an exception to a representation or warranty shall not be deemed to constitute an acknowledgment that such information is required to be disclosed in connection with the representations or warranties of the Company nor shall such information constitute an admission by any party hereto, as applicable, that such item constitutes an item, event, circumstance or occurrence that is material to the Company or its Subsidiaries or constitutes a Material Adverse Effect. Any fact or item that is disclosed in any Disclosure Schedule in a way as to make its relevance or applicability to information called for by any other Disclosure Schedule reasonably apparent on its face shall be deemed to be disclosed in such other Disclosure Schedule, notwithstanding the omission of a reference or cross-reference thereto. Disclosure of any allegations with respect to any alleged breach, violation or default under any contractual or other obligation, or any law, is not an admission that such breach, violation or default has occurred. Other than express references to particular Schedules, headings and subheadings have been inserted on certain Schedules for convenience of reference only and shall not be considered a part of or affect the construction or interpretation of such Schedules. Where the terms of a contract or other item have been summarized or described in the Schedules, such summary or description does not purport to be a complete statement of the material terms of such contract or other item. The information provided in the Disclosure Schedule is being provided solely for the purpose of making disclosures to Parent and Merger Sub under this Agreement. In disclosing this information, the Company does not waive, and expressly reserves any rights under, any attorney-client privilege associated with such information or any protection afforded by the work-product doctrine with respect to any of the matters disclosed or discussed therein.

Specifically, the parties agree that (a) neither Parent nor Merger Sub shall, or shall cause the Company or its Subsidiaries to, seek to have Kirkland disqualified from representing the Representative or the Company Holders or their respective Affiliates, and each of the foregoing’s respective officers, directors, managers, employees, shareholders, equityholders, agents and representatives (collectively, the “Seller Parties”), in each case in connection with any dispute to the extent related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby between the Representative, the Seller Parties or their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and Parent, Merger Sub or the Company, on the other hand, and the Company expressly waives any claim that Kirkland has a conflict of interest to the extent arising from Kirkland’s representation of the Seller Parties in connection with this Agreement that would preclude it from engaging in such a representation, and (b) in connection with any such dispute that may arise between the Representative, the Seller Parties or their respective Affiliates and Parent, Merger Sub or the Company, the Representative, the Seller Parties or their respective Affiliates involved in such dispute (and not Parent, Merger Sub or the Company) will have the right to decide whether or not to waive the attorney-client privilege that may apply to pre-Closing communications to the extent related to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby between Kirkland, on the one hand, and the Company and its Subsidiaries, on the other hand.

(b) Parent further agrees, on behalf of itself, Merger Sub and, after the Closing, on behalf of the Company, that all communications in any form or format whatsoever involving Kirkland, on the one hand, and the Representative, the Seller Parties or their respective Affiliates, on the other hand, in each case solely to the extent related to the negotiation, documentation and consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any dispute arising under this Agreement (collectively, the “Deal Communications”) shall be deemed to be retained and owned collectively by the Company Holders, shall be controlled by the Representative on behalf of the Company Holders and shall not pass to (by operation of law or otherwise) or be claimed by Parent or the Company. All Deal Communications that are attorney-client privileged (the “Privileged Deal Communications”) shall remain privileged after the Closing and the privilege and the expectation of client confidence relating thereto shall belong solely to the Representative and the Company Holders, shall be controlled by the Representative on behalf of the Company Holders and shall not pass to or be claimed by Parent or the Company.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a dispute arises between Parent or the Company, on the one hand, and a third party other than the Representative or any Company Holder, on the other hand, Parent or the Company may assert the attorney-client privilege to prevent the disclosure of the Privileged Deal Communications to such third party and if requested by Parent, the Company Holders and Representative shall assert such privilege; provided, however, that none of Parent or the Company may waive such privilege without the prior written consent of the Representative (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). In the event that Parent or the Company is legally required by governmental order or otherwise to access or obtain a copy of all or a portion of the Deal Communications, Parent shall promptly notify the Representative in writing so that the Representative can seek (at its sole expense) a protective order and Parent agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to assist therewith, provided, however, that if such protection order is not obtained, nothing in this Agreement shall prevent Parent from making such disclosures as Parent shall deem appropriate to comply with such legal requirement.

Section 8.14 Nonrecourse. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (a) none of the Financing Sources will have any liability for any claims or damages to the Company or any of its Affiliates in connection with this Agreement, the Financing or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, whether at law or equity (whether in tort, contract or otherwise), (b) neither the Company nor any of its Affiliates will have any rights or claims, whether at law or equity, against any Financing Source hereunder or thereunder and (c) the Company (on behalf of itself and its Affiliates) agrees not to commence any action or proceeding against any Financing Source in connection with this Agreement, the Financing or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, whether at law or equity, and agrees to cause any such action or proceeding asserted by Company (on behalf of itself and its Affiliates) in connection with this Agreement, the Financing or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, whether at law or equity, against any Financing Source to be dismissed or otherwise terminated; provided that nothing in this Section 8.14 shall limit the rights of (i) Parent or Merger Sub under this Agreement or under any Financing Documentation, or any Financing Source’s obligations to Parent or Merger Sub under the Financing or under any Financing Documentation or (ii) the Company and its Affiliates after the Effective Time under any debt commitment letter or the Financing Documentation (but not, for the avoidance of doubt, under this Agreement) to the extent the Company and/or its Affiliates are party thereto.
