(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained here, Parent and the Surviving Corporation and their Affiliates shall not be liable to any holder of Certificates for any amounts paid to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Laws. Any amounts remaining unclaimed by any Equityholder two (2) years after the Effective Time (or, in the case of Additional Payments, if any, two (2) years after the first payment of such amounts) (or such earlier date, immediately prior to such time when the amounts would otherwise escheat to or become property of any Governmental Authority) shall become, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, the property of Parent free and clear of any claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

Section 2.10 Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, any Shares that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, that are not voted in favor of (or the holder of which has not executed a consent to) the adoption of this Agreement and the Merger and in respect of which appraisal or dissenter’s rights shall have been perfected in a timely manner pursuant to Section 262 of DGCL (the “Dissenting Shares”), shall not be converted into or represent a right to receive a portion of the consideration payable to the Equityholders pursuant to Section 2.06, unless and until such holder of Dissenting Shares shall have effectively withdrawn, lost or failed to perfect such holder’s appraisal or dissenter’s rights under DGCL (any such holder so withdrawing, losing or failing to perfect, a “Reverting Holder”).

(a) Subject to amounts set forth in any Notice of Claim timely given, the Equityholders shall be entitled to receive Additional Payments set forth in Earnout Schedule attached hereto as Schedule 2.12, after deduction of the amounts contemplated by Articles II and IX as set forth on the Additional Payout Spreadsheet.

To the extent not otherwise provided for in this Section 2.12(b), Restructured Liabilities shall also include the amount of any payments to the Key Employees that are necessary to place them in the same economic position (i.e., net of Taxes, penalties, interest, and other additions thereto) they would have been in had Taxes with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement only been imposed on the Key Employees under Section 1 of the Code, Section 871 of the Code or any employment Taxes, and similar applicable income and employment tax provisions of state or non-U.S. jurisdiction law, in each case as such provisions would have applied. Therefore, prior to Equityholders receiving Additional Payments, if any, all or a partial amount of such Additional Payments shall be used to pay the Restructured Liabilities.

(c) If the Liabilities of the Company exceeds the Assumed Liabilities, and the Closing occurs, all debts, liabilities, obligations, restrictions and duties of the Company shall become the debts, liabilities, obligations, restrictions and duties of the Surviving Corporation as of the Closing Date.

(ii) in connection with the payment of Additional Payments, the amount of such Additional Payments used to make a payment of Restructured Liabilities, together with the name, address and, if available, email address or fax number for each such person receiving payment of Restructured Liabilities;

(iii) in connection with the payment of Additional Payments, the amount of such Additional Payment used to make a payment of Excess Liabilities, together with the name, address and, if available, email address or fax number for each such person receiving payment of Excess Liabilities; and

In addition, any employer portion of employment taxes (or similar obligations) payable with respect to the Restructured Liabilities shall reduce Additional Payments (at the time such related Additional Payments are payable) and such amounts shall be retained by the Parent.

No effect shall be given to any subsequent transfer by an Equityholder of the right to receive all or any portion of the Parent Merger Shares or any Additional Payment.

Each of the Exchange Agent, Parent, Merger Sub and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable to any Person pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as may be required to be deducted and withheld under any provision of Tax Law.

(a) The Equityholder has not acquired the Securities as a result of, and will not itself engage in, any “directed selling efforts” (as defined in Regulation S under the Securities Act) in the United States in respect of the Securities, which would include any activities undertaken for the purpose of, or that could reasonably be expected to have the effect of, conditioning the market in the United States for the resale of the Securities; provided, however, that the Equityholder may sell or otherwise dispose of the Securities pursuant to registration thereof under the Securities Act and any applicable state and provincial securities laws or under an exemption from such registration requirements.

(b) The Equityholder acknowledges that the statutory and regulatory basis for the exemption from United States registration requirements claimed for the offer of the Securities, although in technical compliance with Regulation S, would not be available if the offering is part of a plan or scheme to evade the registration provisions of the Securities Act or any applicable state or provincial securities laws.

(c) The Equityholder acknowledges that (i) the issuance and sale of the Securities is intended to be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, pursuant to the provisions of Regulation S; (ii) the Equityholder is not acquiring the Securities for the account or benefit of any U.S. Person; and (iii) the offer and sale of the Securities has not taken place, and it is not taking place, within the United States or its territories or possessions and is an “offshore transaction” as such term is defined in Regulation S.

(d) The Equityholder acknowledges that, pursuant to the provisions of Regulation S, the Securities cannot be sold, assigned, transferred, conveyed, pledged or otherwise disposed of to any U.S. Person or within the United States or its territories or possessions for a period of one (1) year from and after the Closing Date, unless such Securities are registered for resale in the United States pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or another exemption from such registration is available. Such an Equityholder acknowledges that it has not engaged in any hedging transactions with regard to the Securities.

(e) The Equityholder is not a “distributor” of securities, as that term is defined in Regulation S, nor a dealer in securities. Such an Equityholder is purchasing the Securities as the principal for its own account, for investment purposes only and not with an intent or view towards further sale or distribution (as such term is used in Section 2(11) of the Securities Act) thereof, and has not pre-arranged any sale with any other purchaser and has no plans to enter into any such agreement or arrangement.

(f) The Equityholder is not an Affiliate of Oncocyte, nor is any Affiliate of such Equityholder an Affiliate of Oncocyte. With respect to such an Equityholder, any investment fund or managed account that is managed on a discretionary basis by the same investment manager as such Equityholder will be deemed to be an Affiliate of such Equityholder.

(g) The Equityholder acknowledges that the Securities may only be sold offshore in compliance with Regulation S or pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or another exemption from such registration, if available. In connection with any resale of the Securities pursuant to Regulation S, any transfer not made in accordance with Regulation S, pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or in accordance with another exemption from the Securities Act, will not be registered by the Exchange Agent or Oncocyte.

During the period of time from the date on which the Closing Registration Statement is declared effective under the Securities Act until the second (2nd) anniversary of such effective date, Parent shall: (i) use reasonable efforts to prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to the Closing Registration Statement as may be necessary or appropriate to keep the Closing Registration Statement current and continuously effective; and (ii) cause the prospectus used in connection with the Closing Registration Statement to be supplemented by any required prospectus supplement, and as so supplemented to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 (or any similar provisions then in force) under the Securities Act. If, at any time, and from time to time, that Parent is required to pay Earnout Consideration under this Agreement, and Parent pays such Earnout Consideration in Parent Common Stock, and (a) the number of registered shares of Parent Common Stock that may be issued under a Registration Statement is insufficient to pay such Earnout Consideration, or (b) the remaining effectiveness period of the then current Registration Statement is less than twelve (12) months, Parent shall file a Registration Statement (the “Earnout Registration Statement”) to register the resale of such Parent Earnout Shares by the Equityholders, and to cause each such Earnout Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act as soon as practicable after the filing thereof, but no later than the date that is sixty (60) days after the applicable Milestone Agreement Date; provided, however, that if any Equityholder fails to timely provide Parent with information required to be included or updated in a Registration Statement, then such Equityholder and its Securities may be excluded from the Registration Statement until such time as Parent files a new Registration Statement and Equityholder timely provides all updated and required information. During the period of time from the date on which a Earnout Registration Statement is declared effective under the Securities Act until the second (2nd) anniversary of such effective date, Parent shall: (i) use reasonable efforts to prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to each such Earnout Registration Statement as may be necessary or appropriate to keep such Earnout Registration Statement current and continuously effective; and (ii) cause the prospectus used in connection with such Earnout Registration Statement to be supplemented by any required prospectus supplement, and as so supplemented to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 (or any similar provisions then in force) under the Securities Act. The Exchange Agent shall have the authority to restrict the total number of Parent Merger Shares, Parent Earnout Shares and/or Parent Common Stock to be sold by all Equityholders under a Registration Statement on any trading day, if such total number of Parent Merger Shares, Parent Earnout Shares and/or Parent Common Stock exceeds ten percent (10%) of the daily trading volume of Parent Common Stock on the Stock Exchange, and Equityholders shall comply with all volume limitations and other trading restrictions set forth in the Transaction Documents, Registration Statement and Laws applicable to their resale of Equity Consideration. In the event of (i) any request by the SEC or any other Governmental Authority for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or related prospectus or for additional information; (ii) the issuance by the SEC or any other Governmental Authority of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose; (iii) the receipt by Parent of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification (or exemption from qualification) of any portion of the Equity Consideration for sale in any jurisdiction in which they have been qualified for sale or the initiation of any proceeding for such purpose; or (iv) any event or circumstance that necessitates the making of any changes in the Registration Statement or related prospectus, or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference, so that, in the case of the Registration Statement, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or any omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and that in the case of the related prospectus, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or any omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; then the Parent shall deliver a certificate in writing to Equityholder Representative (the “Suspension Notice”) to the effect of the foregoing and, upon receipt of the Suspension Notice, the Equityholder Representative shall provide copies of the Suspension Notice to the Equityholders, and the Equityholders must refrain from selling any securities of Parent pursuant to the Registration Statement until Parent prepares and files a supplemented or amended prospectus, or until Parent notifies the Equityholder Representative that the then current prospectus may be used.

Section 5.13 Liability Insurance; Director and Officer Indemnification. Prior to the Closing, the Company shall convert the Company’s existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage for the Company’s directors and officers to a fully paid-up run-off policy that shall provide such directors and officers with coverage for six (6) years following the Effective Time of not less than the existing coverage under, and have other terms not materially less favorable to the insured persons than, the directors’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage presently maintained by the Company (the “Tail Policy”). From and after the Closing Date until the sixth (6th) anniversary thereof, neither Parent nor the Surviving Corporation shall, without the written consent of the Equityholder Representative, take any action to cancel, amend or shorten the term of the Tail Policy as in effect immediately prior to the Closing in a manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of the indemnified parties in any material respect, unless such modification is required by applicable Law.

Article VI
TAX MATTERS

Section 6.01 Tax Returns.

(a) The Equityholder Representative will use reasonable efforts to prepare or cause to be timely prepared (through the Company’s accountant) all income Tax Returns for the Company and its Subsidiaries solely relating to a Pre-Closing Tax Period which are due (taking into account applicable extensions) after the Closing Date and the Equityholder Representative and Parent shall use reasonable efforts to cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to file such Tax Returns as finally prepared under the direction of Equityholder Representative pursuant to this Section 6.01(a). The Equityholder Representative will permit Parent and Surviving Corporation to review and comment on each such Tax Return. The Equityholder Representative (on behalf of the Equityholders) shall promptly pay to Parent the amount of such Taxes reflected on such Tax Returns at least five (5) Business Days prior to the filing due date for such Tax Return, except to the extent included in the calculation of Accrued Pre-Closing Tax Liabilities. Any Tax Returns prepared pursuant to this Section 6.01(a) for any taxable period ending on or before December 31, 2020 shall be prepared in a manner consistent with the prior Tax Returns of the Company and its Subsidiaries, unless otherwise required by applicable Law, generally accepted accounting principles or the Parent’s auditors.

-49-

(b) To the extent that any Tax Returns of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries relate to (x) a Pre-Closing Tax Period and are not income Tax Returns described in Section 6.01(a), or (y) any Straddle Period, Parent will use commercially reasonable efforts to prepare or cause such Tax Returns to be prepared and file or cause to be filed any such Tax Returns. If and to the extent that the Equityholders have any liability for Taxes reflected on any Tax Return prepared pursuant to this Section 6.01(b), (A) such Tax Return shall be prepared in a manner consistent with the prior Tax Returns of the Company and its Subsidiaries, unless otherwise required by applicable Law, generally accepted accounting principles, or the Parent’s auditors, (B) Parent will permit the Equityholder Representative to review and comment on each such Tax Return described in the preceding sentence, and will consider in good faith all of the Equityholder Representative’s reasonable comments, and (C) the Equityholder Representative (on behalf of the Equityholders) shall promptly pay to Parent the amount of Pre-Closing Taxes reflected on such Tax Return at least five (5) Business Days prior to the filing due date for such Tax Return except to the extent included in the calculation of Accrued Pre-Closing Tax Liabilities. For purposes of this Agreement, in the case of any Taxes that are payable for a Straddle Period, the portion of such Tax that relates to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date will (i) except as to Taxes described in clause (ii), be determined based on a “closing of the books” of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the close of the Closing Date; provided, however, that any income, gain, deduction, loss or other Tax items attributable on the Closing Date to transactions outside the ordinary course of business following the Closing Date shall be allocable to the portion of the Straddle Period commencing after the Closing Date; and (ii) in the case of an ad valorem Tax on real or personal property or a franchise Tax not based on gross or net income, be determined by multiplying the amount of such Tax for the entire period by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the portion of the taxable period ending as of the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire taxable period.

Section 6.02 Contests. Parent shall give written notice to Equityholder Representative of the receipt of any written notice by the Company, its Subsidiaries, Parent or any of Parent’s Affiliates which involves the assertion of any claim, or the commencement of any Action, in respect of which an indemnity may be sought by Parent for Pre-Closing Taxes (a “Tax Claim”); provided, that failure to comply with this provision shall not affect Parent’s right to indemnification hereunder except to the extent that the Equityholders are actually materially prejudiced by such failure (but only to the extent of such prejudice). The Equityholder Representative shall, diligently and in good faith, and at its sole cost and expense, control the contest or resolution of any Tax Claim that relates solely to Pre-Closing Taxes; provided, that Parent or Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to jointly participate in the defense of such claim and to employ counsel of their choice for such purpose, the fees and expenses of which separate counsel shall be borne solely by Parent and/or Surviving Corporation. On behalf of Surviving Corporation, Parent shall, diligently and in good faith, control the contest or resolution of any other Tax Claim, including any Tax Claim relating to a Straddle Period; provided, that Equityholder Representative on behalf of the Equityholders shall be entitled to jointly participate in the defense of such claim and to employ counsel of its choice for such purpose, the fees and expenses of which separate counsel shall be borne solely by Equityholders. For purposes of this Section 6.02, the right to jointly participate in the defense of a Tax Claim includes (i) the right to receive, concurrently with or promptly following Parent’s receipt, notice and copies of all correspondence received from the Governmental Authority and otherwise to be promptly and reasonably apprised of the initiation and status of such Tax Claim and (ii) the right to receive copies and reasonable opportunity to review and comment on any written materials to be provided to the Governmental Authority. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between this Section 6.02 and Section 9.05, this Section 6.02 shall control with respect to all matters relating to Taxes.

-50-

Section 6.03 Refunds. Any Tax refunds received by Surviving Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries following the Closing Date and any amounts credited against Taxes to which the Surviving Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries becomes entitled following the Closing Date that relate to Taxes paid by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to any period (or portion thereof) ending on or before the Closing Date or taken into account as Accrued Pre-Closing Tax Liabilities (but excluding any Tax refund that arises as a result of a carryback of a loss or other Tax benefit from a taxable period (or portion thereof) beginning after the Closing Date to a Pre-Closing Tax Period) shall be added to the Equityholder Representative Expense Fund for use by the Equityholder Representative to perform its obligations pursuant to this Agreement and other Transaction Documents, which amount shall be net of any Taxes incurred on receipt of any such Tax refund, and less any costs and expenses incurred in obtaining such refund. In the event any Tax refund is subsequently disallowed or determined to be an amount less than the amount taken into account to make a payment pursuant to this Section 6.03, by a Governmental Authority, the Equityholder Representative shall promptly return such excess to Surviving Corporation or Parent along with any applicable interest and penalties.

Section 6.04 Cooperation and Exchange of Information. Equityholder Representative and Parent shall provide each other with such cooperation and information as either of them reasonably may request of the other in filing any Tax Return pursuant to this Article VI or in connection with any audit or other proceeding in respect of Taxes of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. Such cooperation and information shall include providing copies of relevant Tax Returns or portions thereof, together with accompanying schedules, related work papers and documents relating to rulings or other determinations by tax authorities and the making available of relevant personnel, agents and any representatives. Equityholder Representative and Parent shall retain all Tax Returns, schedules and work papers, records and other documents in its possession relating to Tax matters of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until the expiration of the statute of limitations of the taxable periods to which such Tax Returns and other documents relate, without regard to extensions except to the extent notified by the other party in writing of such extensions for the respective Tax periods. Prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any Tax Returns, schedules and work papers, records and other documents in its possession relating to Tax matters of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date, Equityholder Representative or Parent (as the case may be) shall provide the other party with reasonable written notice and offer the other party the opportunity to take custody of such materials.

Section 6.05 Transfer Taxes. All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration, value added and other such Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents (including any real property transfer Tax and any other similar Tax) (collectively, “Transfer Taxes”) shall be borne fifty percent (50%) by Parent and fifty percent (50%) by the Company. Equityholder Representative shall, at the Equityholders’ cost and expense, timely file any Tax Return or other document with respect to such Taxes or fees (and the Parent shall cooperate with respect thereto as necessary).

Section 6.06 Termination of Existing Tax Sharing Agreements. Any and all existing Tax sharing agreements (whether written or not) binding upon the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (other than any such agreement reflected in a commercial Contract entered into in the ordinary course of business that does not primarily relate to Taxes) shall be terminated effective as of the Closing. After such date neither the Company, any Equityholder, any Affiliate of any Equityholders, nor any of their respective Representatives, shall have any further rights or liabilities thereunder.

Section 6.07 Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments. Any indemnification payments pursuant to this Article VI shall be treated as an adjustment to the total consideration by the parties for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law or the Parent’s auditors.

Section 6.08 Intended Tax Treatment. The parties hereto shall treat the Closing Date as the last day of the taxable period of the Company for all Tax purposes and Parent shall cause the Company to join Parent’s “consolidated group” (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-76(h)) effective on the day after the Closing Date.

A Parent Indemnitee has no right to satisfy indemnification claims for Losses pursuant to Section 9.02 out of Earnout Consideration to the extent actually paid to an Equityholder, or to seek indemnification for Losses that exceeds the amount of Earnout Consideration not yet paid to the Equityholders.

-57-

(f) None of the limitations set forth herein shall apply to any claim determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or arbitrator to constitute fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful misconduct. If a court of competent jurisdiction or arbitrator determines that any Equityholder has engaged in fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful misconduct in connection with this Agreement or any of the Transaction Documents (“Culpable Equityholder”), then none of the limitations set forth in this Section 9.05 shall apply to any Culpable Equityholder. A Parent Indemnitee has no right to satisfy indemnification claims for Losses pursuant to this Section 9.05(f) against any Equityholder other than a Culpable Equityholder, or to seek indemnification for Losses that exceeds the amount of Additional Payments unpaid to such non-culpable Equityholder.

(g) The Equityholders shall not be obligated to indemnify any Parent Indemnitee with respect to any Loss to the extent that the amount of such Loss was reflected as a current liability or reserve and actually subtracted in the calculation of the final Payoff Liabilities.

Section 9.06 Indemnification Procedures for Third Party Claims against Parent Indemnitee.

(a) If an Indemnified Party receives notice of the assertion of any claim or the commencement of any Action by a Third Party that such Indemnified Party reasonably believes may give rise to a claim for recovery of Losses under the provisions of this Article IX (“Third Party Claim”), such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party and Parent of such Third Party Claim in writing (a “Notice of Claim”) and shall otherwise make reasonably available to the Indemnifying Party and Parent all relevant information that is material to the claim and that is in the possession of the Indemnified Party. An Indemnified Party’s failure to give timely written notice or to furnish the Indemnifying Party or Parent with any relevant data and documents in connection with any Third Party Claim, shall not constitute a defense (in part or in whole) to any claim for indemnification by such party, except and only to the extent that such failure shall result in any actual and material prejudice to the Indemnifying Party or Parent.

(b) The Indemnifying Party may elect, at its sole expense, to assume control of the defense, settlement, adjustment or compromise of a Third Party Claim, with counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party by giving written notice of the Indemnifying Party’s intention to do so no later than forty-five (45) days following notice thereof (or such shorter period as specified in the notice of Third Party Claim from the Indemnified Party, but in no event less than fifteen (15) days by an Indemnified Party). The Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party elects to assume control of the defense, settlement, adjustment or compromise of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall obtain the consent of the Indemnified Party and Indemnifying Party (which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) before entering into any settlement, adjustment or compromise of such claims, unless such judgment, compromise or settlement (a) provides for the payment of money as sole relief for the claimant, and (b) subject to the making of such payment, results in the full and general release of such Indemnified Party from all liabilities arising from or relating to the Third Party Claim.

(c) If the Indemnifying Party does not so choose to assume control of the defense, settlement, adjustment or compromise of any such Third Party Claim for which any Indemnified Party would be entitled to indemnification hereunder, (i) the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to have the control over said defense and settlement of the subject claim, (ii) the Indemnifying Party will cooperate with and make available to the Indemnified Party such assistance and materials as it may reasonably request, and (iii) each of the Parent and Indemnifying Party shall have the right (at its expense) to participate in the defense assisted by counsel of its own choosing. If the Indemnified Party defends any Third Party Claim, then (x) the reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) of defending such Third Party Claim shall be included as Losses if and to the extent it is finally determined that the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification from the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Agreement, (y) the Indemnified Party shall keep the Indemnifying Party and the Parent reasonably informed with respect to the Third Party Claim, and (z) the Indemnified Party shall obtain the consent of the Parent and the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) before entering into any settlement, adjustment or compromise of such Third Party Claim.

-58-

(d) At the Indemnifying Party’s expense, each party to this Agreement shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate and to cause its employees to cooperate with and assist the Indemnifying Party in connection with defending any Third Party Claim, including attending conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals and furnishing records, information and testimony, as may reasonably be requested; provided, that each party shall use commercially reasonable efforts, in respect of any Third Party Claim of which it has assumed the defense, to preserve the confidentiality of all confidential information of the other party and the attorney-client and work-product privileges of the party controlling the defense of any Third Party Claim. For the avoidance of doubt, Third Party Claims that relate to Taxes are governed by Section 6.02 and not this Section 9.06(d).

(e) All indemnification payments payable hereunder shall be reduced by the amount of insurance proceeds under any insurance policy paid for by the Company (after deducting related costs and expenses, including any deductible amount and any resultant increase in insurance premiums) actually received by the Indemnified Party as a result of the Losses for which the Indemnified Party is seeking indemnification.

Section 9.07 Indemnification Procedures for Non-Third-Party Claims. In the event of a claim that does not involve a Third Party Claim being asserted against it, the Indemnified Party shall send a Notice of Claim promptly after discovery of the basis for such claim (i) if the Indemnified Party is a Parent Indemnitee, to Equityholder Representative or (ii) if the Indemnified Party is a Equityholder Indemnitee, to Parent. The Notice of Claim shall set forth the amount, if known, or, if not known, a reasonable estimate of the foreseeable maximum amount of claimed Losses (which estimate shall include as much detail as is reasonably practicable under the circumstances, but which shall not be conclusive of the final amount of such Losses) and a reasonable description of the basis for such claim. The Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party shall reasonably cooperate to determine the validity of the claim for indemnity and the Indemnifying Party shall have sixty (60) days from receipt of such Notice of Claim to dispute the claim. If the Indemnifying Party does not give notice to the Indemnified Party that it disputes such claim within sixty (60) calendar days after its receipt of the Notice of Claim, the claim specified in such Notice of Claim will be conclusively deemed a Loss subject to indemnification hereunder. In the case of a disputed claim, the parties will seek to resolve such disputes by good faith negotiations and, if the validity of the claim is not resolved within sixty (60) days after the dispute notice is given, the Indemnified Party may seek arbitration of such claim. If the Indemnifying Party does provide a dispute notice within the sixty (60) day period, no payments shall be made as to such indemnification claims until final resolution is reached either by mutual written agreement between the parties or a final, binding and non-appealable decision by the arbitrator in accordance with Section 11.11.

Section 9.08 Exclusive Remedy.

(a) The parties acknowledge and agree that their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims (other than claims arising from fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful misconduct on the part of a party hereto in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in Article VI and this Article IX. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement it may have against the other parties hereto and their Affiliates and each of their respective Representatives except pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in Article VI and this Article IX. Nothing in this Section 9.08 shall limit any Person’s rights pursuant to Section 11.12 or to seek any remedy on account of any party’s fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful misconduct.

-59-

(b) The parties hereto agree that the provisions in this Agreement relating to indemnification, and the limits imposed on the parties’ remedies with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby were specifically bargained for between sophisticated parties and were specifically taken into account in the determination of the amounts to be paid by the Parent hereunder.

Section 9.09 No Contribution. The Equityholders waive, and acknowledge and agree that they do not have and will not exercise or assert (or attempt to exercise or assert), any right of contribution, right of indemnity or other right or remedy against the Company or any Affiliate of the Company in connection with any indemnification or other rights any Parent Indemnitee may have under or in connection with this Agreement.

Section 9.10 No Subrogation. Following the Closing, no Equityholder shall have any right of indemnification, contribution or subrogation against the Company with respect to any indemnification payments made by or on behalf of any Equityholder if the Merger is consummated.

Section 9.11 Source of Recovery; Right of Setoff.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Parent has the right in good faith to set-off, holdback and/or reduce any and all unpaid amounts payable as Additional Payments hereunder by the amount of any actual Losses or anticipated Third Party Claims, even if the Equityholder Representative or any Seller disputes its obligation to indemnify for any matter. Parent shall not be required to distribute, pay, reserve or transfer any consideration unless and until the Indemnifying Party’s obligation to indemnify has been finally determined by a final, unappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or arbitrator.

Section 11.05 Headings. The table of contents and headings in this Agreement are for reference only and shall not affect the interpretation of this Agreement.

Section 11.06 Severability.

Section 11.07 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents constitute the sole and entire agreement of the parties to this Agreement with respect to the subject matter contained herein and therein, and supersede all prior and contemporaneous understandings and agreements, both written and oral, with respect to such subject matter. In the event of any inconsistency between the statements in the body of this Agreement and those in the other Transaction Documents, the Exhibits and Disclosure Schedules (other than an exception expressly set forth as such in the Disclosure Schedules), the statements in the body of this Agreement will control.

Section 11.11 Governing Law; Arbitration; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of California, USA, as applied to agreements among California residents. Subject to the mandatory agreement to arbitrate, with respect to any proceeding arising among the Parties relating to this Agreement, the Parties consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the forum of the United States District Court for the Southern District of California, unless no federal jurisdiction exists, in which case the Parties consent to exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the alternate forum of a state court located in Irvine, California, USA; provided, however, that the Parties may seek and obtain specific performance under Section 11.12 in any court of competent jurisdiction.

(b) Arbitration. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, any and all disputes, controversies and claims (other than applications for a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction, permanent injunction or other equitable relief or application for enforcement of a resolution under this Section 11.11(b)) arising out of, related to, or in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (a “Dispute”) shall be governed by this Section 11.11(b). A party must, in the first instance, provide written notice of any Disputes to the other parties subject to such Dispute, which notice must provide a reasonably detailed description of the matters subject to the Dispute. The parties involved in such Dispute shall seek to resolve the Dispute on an amicable basis within thirty (30) days of the notice of such Dispute being received by such other parties subject to such Dispute (the “Resolution Period”); provided, that, if any Dispute would reasonably be expected to have become moot or otherwise irrelevant if not decided within sixty (60) days after the occurrence of such Dispute, then there shall be no Resolution Period with respect to such Dispute. Any Dispute that is not resolved during the Resolution Period may immediately be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration administered by the AAA pursuant to its then-existing Expedited Procedures (as defined in the AAA Procedures) of the Commercial Arbitration Rules (the “Procedures”). Any party involved in such Dispute may submit the Dispute to the AAA to commence the proceedings after the Resolution Period. To the extent that the AAA Procedures and this Agreement are in conflict, the terms of this Agreement shall control. The arbitration shall be conducted by one arbitrator nominated by the AAA promptly (but in any event within ten (10) Business Days) after the submission of the Dispute to the AAA and reasonably acceptable to each party subject to the Dispute, which arbitrator shall be a commercial lawyer with substantial experience arbitrating disputes under acquisition agreements. The arbitrator shall accept his or her appointment and begin the arbitration process promptly (but in any event within ten (10) Business Days) after his or her nomination and acceptance by the parties subject to the Dispute. The proceedings shall be streamlined and efficient. The arbitrator shall decide the Dispute in accordance with the substantive law of the State of California. Time is of the essence. Each party subject to the Dispute shall submit a proposal for resolution of the Dispute to the arbitrator within fourteen (14) days after confirmation of the appointment of the arbitrator. The arbitrator shall have the power to order any party to do, or to refrain from doing, anything consistent with this Agreement, the Transaction Documents and applicable Law, including to perform its contractual obligation(s); provided, that the arbitrator shall be limited to ordering pursuant to the foregoing power (and, for the avoidance of doubt, shall order) the relevant party (or parties, as applicable) to comply with only one or the other of the proposals. The arbitrator’s award shall be in writing and shall include a reasonable explanation of the arbitrator’s reason(s) for selecting one or the other proposal. The place of arbitration shall be Irvine, California, USA, and the language of the arbitration shall be English. All controversies and claims by parties may be joined or consolidated into a single arbitration if they arise from the same transaction or are related to the same subject matter.

-64-

(c) Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LEGAL ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (A) NO REPRESENTATIVE OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER IN THE EVENT OF A LEGAL ACTION, (B) SUCH PARTY HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER, (C) SUCH PARTY MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY, AND (D) SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 11.11(C).

Section 11.12 Specific Performance. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur if any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with the terms hereof and that the parties shall be entitled to specific performance of the terms hereof, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. Each of the parties hereby further waives (a) any defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate and (b) any requirement under any Law to post security as a prerequisite to obtaining equitable relief.

Section 11.13 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall be deemed to be one and the same agreement. A signed copy of this Agreement delivered by e-mail or other means of electronic transmission shall be deemed to have the same legal effect as delivery of an original signed copy of this Agreement.

Section 11.14 Further Assurances. The parties agree to execute such further documents and instruments and to take such further actions as may be reasonably necessary to carry out the purposes and intent of this Agreement.

Section 11.15 Attorney-Client Communications. Solely for the pre-Closing period, Parent and Merger Sub irrevocably acknowledge and agree that all attorney-client communications between, on the one hand, the Company and/or the Equityholder Representative on behalf of the Company (and their respective directors, managers, officers, employees, Affiliates, controlling Persons and representatives), and, on the other hand, its counsel, that specifically relate to the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement or any schedule, exhibit, certificate or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection with the transactions completed hereunder or in connection with the Closing of the transactions contemplated hereby, shall be deemed privileged communications as to which such privilege may only be waived by the Equityholder Representative on behalf of the Company and neither Parent nor any Person purporting to act on behalf of or through Parent will seek to obtain any such privileged communications by any process prior to the Closing.

-65-
