Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Amended and Restated Merger Agreement

As previously disclosed, on April 21, 2026, LivePerson, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“LivePerson”), entered into a Merger Agreement (the “Original Merger Agreement”), by and among LivePerson, SoundHound AI, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“SoundHound”, and together with LivePerson, the “Parties”) and Lightspeed Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of SoundHound (“Merger Sub I”), pursuant to which, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Original Merger Agreement, Merger Sub I would merge with and into LivePerson, with LivePerson surviving the merger as an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of SoundHound.

Following the entry into the Original Merger Agreement, LivePerson and SoundHound determined that applicable Israeli securities laws, which are only applicable to shares of LivePerson’s common stock, par value $0.001 (“LivePerson Common Stock”) that are held through the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange Clearing House Ltd (such shares of LivePerson Common Stock, the “TASE Shares”), would have required SoundHound to prepare and file an Israeli securities law-compliant prospectus in connection with the proposed offering and issuance of shares of Class A common stock of SoundHound, par value $0.0001 (“SoundHound Common Stock”) to holders of TASE Shares, unless an exception to such requirement was applicable or an exemption from such requirement could be obtained from the applicable legal authorities in Israel. Absent such exception or exemption, the LivePerson special meeting, and accordingly the proposed closing of the transactions contemplated by the Original Merger Agreement, could have been delayed by a number of months. The parties explored a number of potential options to avoid such a delay, and ultimately agreed to change the form of consideration to be received by holders of TASE Shares from SoundHound Common Stock to cash.

Consequently, on July 2, 2026, LivePerson, SoundHound, Merger Sub I, and Lightspeed Merger Sub II Inc., a Delaware corporation and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of SoundHound (“Merger Sub II” and, together with Merger Sub I, “Merger Subs”) entered into an Amended and Restated Merger Agreement (the “Amended and Restated Merger Agreement”), which amends and restates in its entirety the Original Merger Agreement. Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement, Merger Sub I will merge with and into LivePerson (the “First Merger”), with LivePerson surviving the First Merger as an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of SoundHound and, immediately following the First Merger, Merger Sub II will merge with and into LivePerson (the “Second Merger”, and, together with the First Merger, the “Mergers”), with LivePerson surviving the Second Merger as an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of SoundHound. All defined terms used in this summary of the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement that are not otherwise defined herein have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement, at the date and time the First Merger becomes effective (the “First Effective Time”), each share of LivePerson Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the First Effective Time (other than certain excluded shares, including TASE Shares) will be automatically converted into the right to receive a number of shares of SoundHound Common Stock equal to (a) the Closing Merger Consideration (as defined below), divided by (b) the total number of shares of LivePerson Common Stock that are issued and outstanding, or that are issuable upon the conversion, exercise or settlement in full of any rights to acquire LivePerson Common Stock, as of immediately prior to the First Effective Time (such number of shares, the “Fully Diluted Common Number”, and the result of the calculation set forth in the foregoing clauses (a) and (b), the “Per Share Merger Consideration”).

The aggregate amount of consideration payable by SoundHound to holders of LivePerson Common Stock (other than certain excluded shares, including TASE Shares) in connection with the First Merger pursuant to the terms of the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement will be a number of shares of SoundHound Common Stock equal to the quotient of (a) the Aggregate Consideration Amount (as defined below), divided by (b) the SoundHound Closing Stock Price (the “Closing Merger Consideration”).

Consistent with the Original Merger Agreement, the “Aggregate Consideration Amount” refers to an amount equal to (a) $42,784,532.64, minus (b) the LivePerson Shortfall Cash (as defined below), plus (c) the aggregate dollar amount of the exercise prices of all In-the-Money Options (as defined below) (other than options assumed by SoundHound and converted into an option to acquire shares of the SoundHound Common Stock, in accordance with the terms of the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement). Consistent with the Original Merger Agreement, “LivePerson Shortfall Cash” refers to an amount equal to (x) $74,000,000 (or, solely for purposes of the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement, $71,000,000 if the Closing occurs in July), minus (y) the aggregate principal amount of LivePerson’s 0% convertible notes due 2026 (the “2026 Convertible Notes”) repurchased by LivePerson between April 1, 2026 and the Closing Date (the figure resulting from clause (x) minus clause (y), “LivePerson Minimum Cash”), minus (z) the cash and cash equivalents on LivePerson’s balance sheet as of 12:01 a.m. Pacific Time on the Closing Date (net of certain Company transaction expenses) (the foregoing clause (z), the “LivePerson Cash Balance”); provided that, if a negative number results from such calculation, “LivePerson Shortfall Cash” will be $0. Consistent with the Original Merger Agreement, the “SoundHound Closing Stock Price” refers to the price per share of SoundHound Common Stock derived from the average of the daily volume weighted average prices of a share of SoundHound Common Stock on the Nasdaq on each of the ten (10) consecutive trading days ending on (and including) the trading day that is three (3) trading days prior to the Closing Date, rounded down to the nearest penny, as reported by Bloomberg (such price per share, the “Parent Closing VWAP Stock Price”); provided that, in the event such price per share (I) exceeds $12 per share, “SoundHound Closing Stock Price” will be $12 per share or (II) falls below $7 per share, “SoundHound Closing Stock Price” will be $7 per share.

Consistent with the Original Merger Agreement, the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement provides that, at the First Effective Time, (i) each option to purchase shares of LivePerson Common Stock (a “LivePerson Option”) with a per-share exercise price less than the product of the Per Share Merger Consideration multiplied by the SoundHound Closing Stock Price (each, an “In-the-Money Option”) and held by any individual who is not an “employee” of SoundHound within the meaning of Form S-8 as of immediately after the date and time the Second Merger becomes effective (the “Second Effective Time”) will be entitled to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration applicable to the number of shares covered by such LivePerson Option, net of the applicable exercise price and less applicable tax withholdings; (ii) each LivePerson Option that is not an In-the-Money Option will be cancelled for no consideration; (iii) restricted stock units with respect to shares of LivePerson Common Stock (the “LivePerson RSUs”) held by non-employee directors of LivePerson and each LivePerson RSU that has vested but not yet settled will be entitled to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration in respect of each LivePerson RSU, less applicable tax withholdings; (iv) all other In-the-Money Options and LivePerson RSUs will be assumed by SoundHound and converted into corresponding awards denominated in shares of SoundHound Common Stock in accordance with the terms set forth in the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement, which are consistent with the terms of the Original Merger Agreement, and (v) all warrants to purchase shares of LivePerson Common Stock will be cancelled for no consideration. Consistent with the Original Merger Agreement, the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement also provides that in the event the treatment, as set forth in (i)-(iv) above, of any LivePerson Options or LivePerson RSUs held by persons outside of the United States would be administratively burdensome to SoundHound, SoundHound may either cash out such equity awards or convert them into cash-based awards that continue to vest on the same schedule.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement, at the Second Effective Time, each TASE Share and issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Second Effective Time (other than any Dissenting Shares (as defined below)) will be automatically converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to (a) the Closing TASE Cash Merger Consideration (as defined below), divided by (b) the total number of TASE Shares that are issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Second Effective Time (such number of shares, the “Fully Diluted TASE Common Number”, and the result of the calculation set forth in the foregoing clauses (a) and (b), the “Per Share Cash Merger Consideration”).

The aggregate amount of cash consideration payable by SoundHound to holders of TASE Shares (other than Dissenting Shares) in connection with the Second Merger pursuant to the terms of the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement will be an amount in cash equal to (a) the Closing Merger Consideration, multiplied by (b) the Parent Closing VWAP Stock Price, multiplied by (c) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Fully Diluted TASE Common Number, and the denominator of which is the Fully Diluted Common Number (the “Closing TASE Cash Merger Consideration”); provided that, in the event such amount exceeds $7,500,000, “Closing TASE Cash Merger Consideration” will be $7,500,000.

Any TASE Shares that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Second Effective Time and held by a holder or beneficial owner who did not vote in favor of the adoption of the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement and properly demanded appraisal of such TASE Shares (“Dissenting Shares”) in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL will not be converted into the right to receive the Per Share Cash Merger Consideration and will instead, at the Second Effective Time, be converted into the right to receive payment of the fair value of such Dissenting Shares in accordance with the terms of the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement.

It is expected that the Mergers will not qualify as a tax-free reorganization for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Consistent with the Original Merger Agreement, under the terms of the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement, completion of the Mergers is subject to customary closing conditions, including, among others (a) the adoption of the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement by the stockholders of LivePerson; (b) the absence of any law, order or other legal impediment prohibiting the consummation of the Mergers; (c) the receipt of approvals under certain applicable foreign direct investment laws; (d) the approval for listing the shares of SoundHound Common Stock issuable to the stockholders of LivePerson pursuant to the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement on the Nasdaq; (e) the effectiveness of SoundHound’s registration statement on Form S-4; (f) the accuracy of the parties’ respective representations and warranties in the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement, subject to specified materiality qualifications; (g) the performance or compliance by SoundHound and LivePerson with the covenants in the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement in all material respects; (h) the absence of a material adverse effect on LivePerson (as defined in the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement); and (i) the consummation of the Notes Restructuring Transactions (as in the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement).

Consistent with the Original Merger Agreement, the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants made by each of LivePerson, SoundHound, Merger Sub I and Merger Sub II, including, among others, covenants by LivePerson regarding the conduct of its business during the pendency of the transactions contemplated by the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement, public disclosures and other matters. The Company is required, among other things, not to solicit alternative business combination transactions and, subject to certain exceptions, not to engage in discussions or negotiations regarding an alternative business combination transaction.

Consistent with the Original Merger Agreement, both LivePerson and SoundHound may terminate the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement under specified circumstances, including (a) if the Mergers are not completed by October 21, 2026 (which date may be extended to December 5, 2026 if certain regulatory approvals have not been obtained); (b) if LivePerson fails to obtain stockholder approval; (c) if the board of directors of LivePerson (the “LivePerson Board”) makes an adverse recommendation change with respect to the Mergers or commits a material breach of its non-solicitation obligations; (d) if

the LivePerson Board terminates to accept a superior acquisition proposal; or (e) if the Notes Restructuring Transactions are terminated for any reason. Consistent with the Original Merger Agreement, the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement further provides that LivePerson is required to pay SoundHound a termination fee of $5,000,000, plus the SoundHound’s transaction expenses, if the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement is terminated under certain specified circumstances, including if the LivePerson Board changes or withdraws its recommendation of the Mergers, terminates the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement to enter into an agreement with respect to a superior acquisition proposal or if the Notes Restructuring Transactions is terminated for any reason or otherwise fails to consummate by the Outside Date (as defined in the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement), except where such termination or failure to consummate primarily resulted from SoundHound’s material breach of the Notes Restructuring Agreement (as defined in the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement); provided that where a termination fee is payable in connection with the failure to consummate, or termination of, the Notes Restructuring Transactions, the obligation to reimburse SoundHound’s transaction expenses will be capped at $3,750,000.

Consistent with the Original Merger Agreement, the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Mergers, have been unanimously approved by the LivePerson Board, and the LivePerson Board has resolved to recommend to the stockholders of LivePerson to adopt the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement, subject to its terms and conditions.

The Amended and Restated Merger Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing description does not purport to be complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement. The Amended and Restated Merger Agreement has been attached to provide investors with information regarding its terms. It is not intended to provide any other factual information about LivePerson, SoundHound, Merger Sub I, or Merger Sub II. In particular, the assertions embodied in the representations and warranties contained in the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement are qualified by information in a confidential disclosure letter provided by LivePerson to SoundHound in connection with the signing of the Original Merger Agreement and in filings of the parties with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The confidential disclosure letter contains information that modifies, qualifies and creates exceptions to the representations and warranties and certain covenants set forth in the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement. Moreover, the representations and warranties in the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement were used for the purposes of allocating risk between LivePerson and SoundHound rather than establishing matters of fact. Accordingly, the representations and warranties in the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement should not be relied on as characterization of the actual state of facts about LivePerson, SoundHound, Merger Sub I or Merger Sub II.

Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information

This communication contains statements regarding SoundHound, LivePerson, the proposed transactions described herein and other matters that are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as “anticipate,” “approximate,” “believe,” “plan,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “could,” “should,” “strategy,” “will,” “intend,” “may” and other similar expressions or the negative of such words or expressions. Statements in this communication concerning (i) SoundHound’s or LivePerson’s expected future financial position, results of operations, business strategy, production capacity, competitive positions, growth opportunities, employment opportunities and mobility, plans and objectives of management and (ii) SoundHound’s proposed acquisition of LivePerson, the expected benefits of the proposed acquisition, including with respect to the business outlook or future economic performance, and product or services line growth, the structure of the proposed acquisition, the closing date of the proposed acquisition, and plans following the closing of the proposed acquisition, together with other statements that are not historical facts, are forward-looking statements that are estimates reflecting management’s best judgment based upon currently available information. Such forward-looking statements are inherently uncertain, and stockholders and other potential investors must recognize that actual results may differ materially from expectations as a result of a variety of factors, including, without limitation, those discussed below. Such forward-looking statements are based upon management’s current expectations and include known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which SoundHound and LivePerson are unable to predict or control, that may cause actual results, performance or plans to differ materially from any future results, performance or plans expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in these statements as a result of a number of factors, including, but not limited to: (a) the risk that the transactions described herein will not be completed or will not provide the expected benefits; (b) the failure to timely or at all obtain LivePerson stockholder approval for the Mergers; (c) the inability to obtain required regulatory approvals for the Mergers; (d) the timing of obtaining such approvals and the risk that such approvals may result in the imposition of conditions that could adversely affect the combined company or the expected benefits of the proposed transactions; (e) the risk that a condition to closing of the proposed transactions may not be satisfied on a timely basis or at all; (f) the possible occurrence of an event, change or other circumstance that would give rise to the termination of the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement; (g) the risk of stockholder litigation in connection with the Mergers, including resulting expense or delay in closing of the proposed transactions; (h) the failure of the proposed transactions to close for any other reason; (i) the diversion of the attention of SoundHound and LivePerson management from ongoing business operations; (j) unexpected costs, liabilities, charges or expenses resulting from the proposed transactions; (k) the risk that the integration of SoundHound and LivePerson will be more difficult, time-consuming or expensive than anticipated; (l) the risk of customer loss or other business disruption in connection with the proposed transactions, or of the loss of key employees; (m) the fact that unforeseen liabilities of SoundHound or LivePerson may exist; (n) changes in applicable laws or regulations and extensive and evolving government regulations that impact SoundHound’s

or LivePerson’s operations and business; (o) investigations, claims, disputes, enforcement actions, litigation and/or other regulatory or legal proceedings, including with respect to AI technology; (p) risks that SoundHound may not be able to manage strains associated with its growth; (q) dependence on key personnel; (r) stock price volatility; (s) SoundHound’s and LivePerson’s ability to protect their intellectual property and litigation risks; (t) the risk that LivePerson’s usage patterns, customer renewals, customer outcomes and similar metrics differ from expectations; (u) the risk of cybersecurity incidents or breaches impacting LivePerson’s business; (v) the risks related to the use and regulation of artificial intelligence and machine learning; (w) general economic, financial, legal, political and business conditions; and (x) other risks inherent in SoundHound’s and LivePerson’s businesses.

All such factors are difficult to predict, are beyond SoundHound’s and LivePerson’s control, and are subject to additional risks and uncertainties, including those detailed in SoundHound’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 and those detailed in LivePerson’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 and LivePerson’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2026. These risks, as well as other risks related to the proposed transaction, are included in the Form S-4 and proxy statement/prospectus (each as defined below) that SoundHound filed and LivePerson intends to file with the SEC in connection with the proposed transaction. Forward-looking statements are based on the estimates and opinions of management at the time the statements are made. Neither SoundHound nor LivePerson undertakes any obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements that speak only as of the date hereof.

No Offer or Solicitation

This communication is not intended to be, and shall not constitute, an offer to sell, buy or exchange or the solicitation of an offer to sell, buy or exchange any securities, or a solicitation of any vote or approval, nor shall there be any sale of securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.

(a) Exchange Agent. At or prior to the First Effective Time, Parent shall designate a reputable bank or trust company to act as the exchange agent (the identity and terms of designation and appointment of which shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company) for purposes of effecting the issuances and payments contemplated by Section 2.1(a)(i), Section 2.3 and Section 2.4 (the “Exchange Agent”). At or prior to the First Effective Time, Parent shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Exchange Agent (I)(x) an amount of uncertificated, book-entry shares representing the number of shares of Parent Common Stock sufficient to effect the issuances contemplated by Section 2.1(a)(i) and (y) an amount of cash sufficient to deliver the payments contemplated by Section 2.4, in each case, to which holders of Company Common Stock shall be entitled at the First Effective Time pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(i) and Section 2.4, as applicable, and (II) an amount of cash sufficient to deliver the payments contemplated by Section 2.1(b)(i)(A) to which holders of TASE Shares shall be entitled at the Second Effective Time pursuant to Section 2.1(b)(i)(A). The Exchange Agent shall not be entitled to vote or exercise any rights of ownership with respect to the Parent Common Stock held by it from time to time hereunder. Following the First Effective Time, Parent shall pay, or shall cause to be paid to the Exchange Agent, from time to time, as needed, cash sufficient to pay dividends and other distributions pursuant to Section 2.3 and Section 2.4, as applicable. In the event such deposited shares or funds are insufficient to effect the issuances or make the payments contemplated pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(i), Section 2.1(b)(i)(A), Section 2.3 and Section 2.4, as applicable, Parent shall promptly deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Exchange Agent such additional shares or funds, as applicable, to ensure that the Exchange Agent has at all times sufficient shares or funds, as applicable, to effect such issuances and make such payments. Earnings from any investment by the Exchange Agent (to be made solely at Parent’s direction) of the cash deposited by Parent with the Exchange Agent pursuant to the second and fourth sentences of this Section 2.2(a) shall be the sole and exclusive property of Parent. No part of such earnings shall accrue to the benefit of holders of Company Common Stock (other than by virtue of receipt of the issuances or payments contemplated by Section 2.1(a)(i), Section 2.1(b)(i)(A), Section 2.3 and Section 2.4, in each case, pursuant to the terms thereof) and no losses shall alter Parent’s obligation to cause the Exchange Agent to issue the shares or pay the cash contemplated by Section 2.1(a)(i), Section 2.1(b)(i)(A), Section 2.3 and Section 2.4, as applicable, in accordance with Section 2.2(b).

(b) Procedures for Surrender; Treatment of Company Certificated Shares and Company Book-Entry Shares.

(i) Company Certificated Shares. As soon as practicable after the First Effective Time (and in no event later than three (3) Business Days after the First Effective Time), Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each Person that was a holder of record of shares of Company Common Stock represented by a certificate (“Company Certificated Shares”) immediately prior to the First Effective Time: (A) a letter of transmittal, which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Company Certificated Shares shall pass, only upon delivery of the Company Certificated Shares to the Exchange Agent, and shall otherwise be in such form as Parent, the Company and the Exchange Agent shall reasonably agree; and (B) instructions for effecting the surrender of the Company Certificated Shares (or affidavits of loss in lieu of the Company Certificated Shares as provided in Section 2.2(f)) in exchange for the issuance of the Per Share Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(i) (together with any dividends or other distributions (if any) or any cash payment (if any) that the holder thereof has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.3 and Section 2.4, respectively). Upon surrender of any Company Certificated Shares (or affidavit of loss in lieu of the Company Certificated Shares as provided in Section 2.2(f)) to the Exchange Agent or to such other agent or agents as may be appointed by Parent, and upon delivery of a letter of transmittal, duly executed and in proper form, with respect to such Company Certificated Shares, the holder of such Company Certificated Shares shall be entitled to receive, and Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to issue and pay, if applicable, and deliver as promptly as practicable after such surrender, (x) credit in the stock ledger and other appropriate books and records of Parent for the number of shares of Parent Common Stock into which the shares of Company Common Stock of such holder shall have been converted pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(i) and (y) any dividends or other distributions (if any) or any cash payment (if any) that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.3 and Section 2.4, respectively, any Company Certificated Shares so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. If payment of the Per Share Merger Consideration is to be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name any surrendered Company Certificated Shares are registered, it shall be a condition precedent of payment that the Company Certificated Shares so surrendered shall be properly endorsed or shall be otherwise in proper form for transfer, and the Person requesting such payment shall have paid any transfer and other similar Taxes required by reason of the payment of the Per Share Merger Consideration to a Person other than the registered holder of the Company Certificated Shares so surrendered and shall have established to the satisfaction of the Surviving Corporation that such Taxes either have been paid or are not required to be paid. No interest will be paid or accrued on any amount payable upon due surrender of the Company Certificated Shares. Until surrendered as contemplated hereby, each Company Certificated Share shall be deemed at any time after the First Effective Time to represent only the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(i) (together with any dividends or other distributions (if any) or any cash payment (if any) that the holder thereof has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.3 and Section 2.4, respectively).

(ii) Company Book-Entry Shares. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no holder of shares of Company Common Stock held in book-entry form (“Company Book-Entry Shares”) shall be required to deliver a certificate evidencing such Company Book-Entry Shares or, in the case of holders of Company Book-Entry Shares held through The Depository Trust Company, an executed letter of transmittal to the

Exchange Agent to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration or Per Share Cash Merger Consideration, as applicable, that such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(i) or Section 2.1(b)(i)(A), as applicable, or any dividends or other distributions (if any) or any cash payment (if any) that such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 2.3 and Section 2.4, respectively. In lieu thereof, each holder of record of one or more Company Book-Entry Shares held through The Depository Trust Company whose Company Common Stock were converted into the right to receive (I) the Per Share Merger Consideration shall automatically, upon the First Effective Time, be entitled to receive, and Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to issue and pay, if applicable, and deliver as promptly as practicable after the First Effective Time, (A) credit in the stock ledger and other appropriate books and records of Parent for the number of shares of Parent Common Stock into which such Company Book-Entry Shares have been converted pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(i) and (B) any dividends or other distributions (if any) or any cash payment (if any) that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.3 and Section 2.4, respectively, and any Company Book-Entry Shares shall forthwith be cancelled, or (II) the Per Share Cash Merger Consideration shall automatically, upon the Second Effective Time, be entitled to receive, and Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to pay and deliver to the Depository Trust Company or its nominee as promptly as practicable after the Second Effective Time, the cash payment of the Per Share Cash Merger Consideration for such Company Book-Entry Shares that have been converted pursuant to Section 2.1(b)(i)(A), and any Company Book-Entry Shares shall forthwith be cancelled. As soon as practicable after the First Effective Time (and in no event later than three (3) Business Days after the First Effective Time), Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each Person that was, immediately prior to the First Effective Time, a holder of record of Company Book-Entry Shares not held through The Depository Trust Company: (I) a letter of transmittal, which shall be in such form as Parent, the Company and the Exchange Agent shall reasonably agree; and (II) instructions for returning such letter of transmittal in exchange for (1) the issuance of the Per Share Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(i) (together with any dividends or other distributions (if any) or any cash payment (if any) that the holder thereof has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.3 and Section 2.4, respectively) or (2) the payment of the Per Share Cash Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.1(b)(i)(A), as applicable. Upon delivery of such letter of transmittal, duly executed and in proper form, with respect to such Company Book-Entry Shares, the holder of such Company Book-Entry Shares shall be entitled to receive, and Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to issue and pay, if applicable, and deliver as promptly as practicable after such delivery, (A) credit in the stock ledger and other appropriate books and records of Parent for the number of shares of Parent Common Stock into which such Company Book-Entry Shares have been converted pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(i), (B) a cash payment for the Per Share Cash Merger Consideration for such Company Book-Entry Shares that have been converted pursuant to Section 2.1(b)(i)(A), and (C) any dividends or other distributions (if any) or any cash payment (if any) that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.3 and Section 2.4, respectively, and any Company Book-Entry Shares shall forthwith be cancelled. Payment of the Per Share Merger Consideration or the Per Share Cash Merger Consideration, as applicable, with respect to Company Book-Entry Shares shall only be made to the Person in whose name such Company Book-Entry Shares are registered. No interest will be paid or accrued on any amount payable upon due surrender of Company Book-Entry Shares. Until paid or surrendered as contemplated hereby, (I) each Company Book-Entry Share (other than TASE Shares) shall be deemed at any time after the First Effective Time to represent only the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(i) (together with

dividends or other distributions (if any) or any cash payment (if any) that the holder thereof has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.3 and Section 2.4, respectively), and (II) subject to Section 2.11, each Company Book-Entry Share that is a TASE Share shall be deemed at any time after the Second Effective Time to represent only the right to receive the Per Share Cash Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.1(b)(i)(A).

(c) Transfer Books; No Further Ownership Rights in Shares. The shares of Parent Common Stock issued upon conversion of shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to and in accordance with Section 2.1(a)(i) and Section 2.2 (together with dividends or other distributions (if any) or any cash payment (if any) pursuant to Section 2.3 and Section 2.4, respectively) or the payment of the Per Share Cash Merger Consideration in respect of shares of Company Common Stock that have been converted pursuant to Section 2.1(b)(i)(A), as applicable, shall be deemed to have been delivered or paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the shares of Company Common Stock. From and after (i) the First Effective Time, (x) all holders of Company Common Stock (other than holders of TASE Shares) shall cease to have any rights as stockholders of the Company other than the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration into which the shares of Company Common Stock have been converted pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(i) (together with dividends or other distributions (if any) or any cash payment (if any) that the holder thereof has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.3 and Section 2.4, respectively) and (y) the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed and there shall be no further registration of transfers of shares of Company Common Stock thereafter on the records of the Company, and (ii) the Second Effective Time, subject to Section 2.11, all holders of TASE Shares shall cease to have any rights as stockholders of the Company other than the right to receive the Per Share Cash Merger Consideration into which the shares of Company Common Stock have been converted pursuant to Section 2.1(b)(i)(A).

(d) Post-Effective Time Surrender. If, (i) after the First Effective Time, any Company Certificated Shares (other than TASE Shares) are presented to Parent, the First Surviving Corporation or the Surviving Corporation for any reason, such Company Certificated Shares shall be cancelled and exchanged for the Per Share Merger Consideration that such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(i) (together with dividends or other distributions (if any) or any cash payment (if any) that the holder thereof has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.3 and Section 2.4, respectively), or (ii) after the Second Effective Time, subject to Section 2.11, any Company Certificated Shares that are TASE Shares are presented to Parent or the Surviving Corporation for any reason, such Company Certificated Shares shall be cancelled and exchanged for the Per Share Cash Merger Consideration that such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 2.1(b)(i)(A), in each case, subject to abandoned property, escheat or other similar Laws.

(e) Termination of Fund; Abandoned Property; No Liability. Any portion of the shares or funds (including any interest received with respect thereto) made available to the Exchange Agent that remains unclaimed by the holders of Company Common Stock on the first anniversary of the Second Effective Time shall be returned to Parent upon demand, and any such holder of Company Common Stock who has not complied with Section 2.2(b) prior to such time shall thereafter look only to Parent (subject to abandoned property, escheat or other similar Laws) for delivery of the Per Share Merger Consideration that such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(i) and any dividends or other distributions (if any) or any cash payment (if any) that

such holder has the right to receive with Section 2.3 and Section 2.4, respectively, or the Per Share Cash Merger Consideration that such holder is entitled to pursuant to Section 2.1(b)(i)(A). Any shares or funds remaining unclaimed by the holders of Company Common Stock immediately prior to such time as such amounts would otherwise escheat to, or become property of, any Governmental Entity shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of Parent, free and clear of any claim or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto immediately prior to such time on which any payment in respect hereof would escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Entity pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Laws. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of Parent, the Company, the Exchange Agent or their respective affiliates will be liable to any holder of Company Common Stock for the Per Share Merger Consideration (or any dividends or other distributions or any cash payable in connection therewith in accordance with Section 2.3 and Section 2.4, respectively) or the Per Share Cash Merger Consideration, as applicable, delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

(f) Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event that any Company Certificated Shares shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, the Exchange Agent shall issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Company Certificated Shares, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the holder thereof, the Per Share Merger Consideration payable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(i) (together with dividends or other distributions (if any) or any cash payment (if any) that the holder thereof has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.3 and Section 2.4, respectively) or the Per Share Cash Merger Consideration payable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.1(b)(i)(A), as applicable. Parent may, in its reasonable discretion and as a condition precedent to the payment of such Per Share Merger Consideration (and any dividends or other distributions (if any) or any cash payment (if any) that the holder thereof has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.3 and Section 2.4, respectively) or the Per Share Cash Merger Consideration, as applicable, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed Company Certificated Shares to deliver a bond in a reasonable sum as it may reasonably direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against Parent, the First Surviving Corporation, the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent with respect to the Company Certificated Shares alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

2.3 Distributions with Respect to Unexchanged Shares. No dividends or other distributions declared or made with respect to shares of Parent Common Stock with a record date after the First Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any shares of Company Common Stock converted into the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(i) until such holder shall comply with the provisions of Section 2.2(b). Subject to escheat, Tax or other applicable Law, following the surrender of any such shares of Company Common Stock in accordance with Section 2.2(b), such holder shall be entitled to receive any such dividends or distributions, without interest, which theretofore had become payable with respect to the Parent Common Stock exchangeable for such Company Common Stock pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(i) (after giving effect to any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 2.9).

2.4 Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be issued upon the conversion of shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(i), and such fractional share interests shall not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any other rights of a stockholder of Parent. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each holder of Company Common Stock converted pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(i) that would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock (after taking into account all shares of Company Common Stock delivered by such holder in accordance with Section 2.2(b)) shall receive, in lieu thereof, cash (without interest) in an amount equal to such fractional amount multiplied by the Parent Closing Stock Price. Company and Parent acknowledge that payment of any cash in lieu of fractional shares pursuant to and in accordance with this Section 2.4 was not separately bargained-for consideration, but merely represents a mechanical rounding off for purposes of avoiding the expense and inconvenience to Parent that would otherwise be caused by the issuance of fractional shares of Parent Common Stock.

2.5 Further Assurances. From and after the Second Effective Time, the respective officers of Parent and the Surviving Corporation, as applicable, shall be authorized to execute and deliver, in the name and on behalf of the Company or any Parent Party, any deeds, bills of sale, assignments or assurances and to take and do, in the name and on behalf of the Company or any Parent Party, any other actions and things to vest, perfect or confirm of record or otherwise in the Surviving Corporation any and all right, title and interest in, to and under any of the rights, properties or assets acquired or to be acquired by the Surviving Corporation, as applicable, as a result of, or in connection with, the Mergers.

2.6 Treatment of Company Equity Awards.

(a) Company Options.

(i) At the First Effective Time, by virtue of the First Merger and without any action on the part of the Company, Parent, the Merger Subs or the holders thereof, each In-the-Money Company Option that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the First Effective Time and held by an individual who, as of immediately after the Second Effective Time, will constitute an “employee” of Parent within the meaning of Form S-8 (a “Continuing Service Provider”), whether or not then vested or exercisable, shall be assumed by Parent and converted into an option to acquire shares of Parent Common Stock in accordance with this Section 2.6(a)(i) (each, an “Assumed Option”). Each such Assumed Option shall continue to have, and shall be subject to, the same terms and conditions as applied to the corresponding In-the-Money Company Option immediately prior to the First Effective Time (including vesting and exercisability terms) except that, as of the First Effective Time, each such Assumed Option shall constitute an option to acquire that number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to the corresponding In-the-Money Company Option immediately prior to the First Effective Time multiplied by (ii) the Per Share Merger Consideration, at an exercise price per share (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the exercise price per share of the corresponding In-the-Money Company Option by (B) the Per Share Merger Consideration.

(ii) At the First Effective Time, by virtue of the First Merger and without any action on the part of the Company, Parent, the Merger Subs or the holders thereof, each In-the-Money Company Option that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the First Effective Time that is not held by a Continuing Service Provider shall be cancelled and converted into the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration in respect of each Net Share covered by such In-the-Money Company Option, less applicable Tax withholdings (provided, that such withholdings shall be satisfied by way of net settlement).

(iii) At the First Effective Time, by virtue of the First Merger and without any action on the part of the Company, Parent, the Merger Subs or the holders thereof, each Out-of-the-Money Company Option that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the First Effective Time shall be cancelled without any payment in respect thereof.

(b) Company RSU Awards.

(i) At the First Effective Time, by virtue of the First Merger and without any action on the part of the Company, Parent, the Merger Subs or holders thereof, (A) each Company RSU Award that is outstanding immediately prior to the First Effective Time and held by a non-employee member of the Company Board, and (B) each Company RSU Award that is outstanding immediately prior to the First Effective Time and vested but not yet settled shall, in each case, be cancelled and converted into the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration in respect of each share of Company Common Stock subject to such Company RSU Award as of immediately prior to the First Effective Time, less applicable Tax withholdings (provided, that such withholdings shall be satisfied by way of net settlement).

(ii) At the First Effective Time, by virtue of the First Merger and without any action on the part of the Company, Parent, the Merger Subs or holders thereof, each Company RSU Award that is outstanding immediately prior to the First Effective Time (other than a Company RSU Award covered in Section 2.6(b)(i)) shall be assumed by Parent and converted into a restricted stock unit award covering shares of Parent Common Stock (each, an “Assumed RSU Award”) in accordance with this Section 2.6(b)(ii). Each such Assumed RSU Award shall continue to have, and shall be subject to, the same terms and conditions as applied to the corresponding Company RSU Award immediately prior to the First Effective Time (including service-vesting and settlement terms, but excluding any performance-based vesting conditions) except that, as of the First Effective Time, each such Assumed RSU Award shall cover that number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to the corresponding Company RSU Award immediately prior to the First Effective Time multiplied by (ii) the Per Share Merger Consideration.

(c) Certain Non-US Awards. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.6, if Parent determines that, for holders of Company Equity Awards employed outside of the United States, the treatment of Company Equity Awards prescribed by this Section 2.6 would reasonably be expected to cause an administrative burden to Parent, Parent may require that such awards be converted into cash-based awards that otherwise have the same terms and conditions as the corresponding Company Equity Awards held by such individuals or that such awards be cashed out at the Closing based on the value of the Per Share Merger Consideration.

(d) Company ESPP. As soon as practicable following the date of this Agreement, the Company shall take all actions with respect to the Company ESPP that are necessary to provide that: (i) with respect to any offering periods in effect as of the date of the Original Agreement (the “Current ESPP Offering Periods”), no employee who is not a participant in a Current ESPP Offering Period as of the date of the Original Agreement may become a participant in the Current ESPP Offering Period, and no participant may increase the percentage amount of his or her payroll deduction election from that in effect on the date of the Original Agreement for such Current ESPP Offering Periods; (ii) subject to the consummation of the First Merger, the Company ESPP shall terminate effective immediately prior to the First Effective Time; (iii) if the Current ESPP Offering Periods terminate prior to the First Effective Time, then the Company ESPP shall be suspended and no new offering period shall be commenced under the Company ESPP prior to the termination of this Agreement; and (iv) if any Current ESPP Offering Period is still in effect at the First Effective Time, then the last day of such Current ESPP Offering Period shall be accelerated to a date that is no later than three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date.

(e) Other Actions.

(i) Prior to the First Effective Time, the Company shall pass such resolutions and take such other actions as are necessary so as to cause the treatment of the Company Equity Awards and the Company ESPP as contemplated by this Section 2.6.

(ii) On or prior to the Closing Date, Parent shall file, or have on file with the SEC, a registration statement on Form S-8 (or any successor form) relating to the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable with respect to the Assumed Options and Assumed RSU Awards, and Parent shall use its best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement for so long as Assumed Options or Assumed RSU Awards remain outstanding.

2.7 Treatment of Company Warrants. At the First Effective Time, by virtue of the First Merger and without any action on the part of the Company, Parent or the Merger Subs, or the holders thereof, each Company Warrant outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the First Effective Time shall be cancelled without any payment in respect thereof.

2.8 Estimated Closing Statement. No earlier than twenty (20) Business Days nor later than fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to Parent a statement (the “Estimated Closing Statement”), certified by the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, setting forth (a) a good faith estimated unaudited balance sheet of the Company and (b) the Company’s good faith estimate of the Company Cash Balance, in each case, as of 12:01 a.m. Pacific Time on the Closing Date. The Company shall deliver supporting calculations and documentation of such calculations (including with respect to any deductions contemplated by the definition of Company Cash Balance and reflected in such calculations), in detail reasonably acceptable to Parent, concurrently with the delivery of such Estimated Closing Statement. The Company shall consult in good faith with Parent and any Parent Representatives with respect to the preparation of, and with respect to any updates reasonably requested by the Parent or the Parent Representatives to, the Estimated Closing Statement until the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date. Subject to such good faith consultation by the Company and any updates to the Estimated Closing Statement resulting therefrom, the Company Cash Balance set forth in the Estimated Closing Statement as of such fifth (5th) Business Day prior to the Closing Date shall be deemed the final Company Cash Balance for purposes of calculating the Aggregate Consideration Amount.

2.9 Withholding Rights. Each of Parent, Merger Sub I, Merger Sub II, the Company, the First Surviving Corporation, the Surviving Corporation, the Exchange Agent, the Section 102 Trustee and any TASE member shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement, such amounts, if any, as are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under the Code or any provision of applicable Law. To the extent that any withholding obligation cannot be satisfied by the retention of cash amounts otherwise payable hereunder, each of Parent, Merger Sub I, Merger Sub II, the Company, the First Surviving Corporation, the Surviving Corporation, the Exchange Agent, the Section 102 Trustee and any TASE member may, in their sole discretion and without requiring the prior consent of the applicable recipient (except where required by applicable Law), sell or instruct to sell, on behalf of such recipient, such portion of the shares of Parent Common Stock otherwise deliverable to such recipient as is necessary to generate proceeds sufficient to satisfy the applicable withholding obligation. Neither Parent nor Merger Sub I, Merger Sub II, the Company, the First Surviving Corporation, the Surviving Corporation, the Exchange Agent, the Section 102 Trustee and any TASE member shall have any liability to the recipient for the market price obtained in connection with any such sale or for any market fluctuations or delays in effecting such sale, and the net cash proceeds from any such sale (after deducting the applicable Tax withholding amounts and any brokerage fees, commissions, or other transaction costs) shall be remitted to the recipient as soon as reasonably practicable. The parties shall reasonably cooperate with each other in good faith to minimize any such deduction or withholding, including, to the extent feasible and practicable in the circumstances, by seeking appropriate tax rulings. To the extent that amounts are so deducted and withheld, such deducted and withheld amounts (a) shall be remitted by Parent, Merger Sub I, Merger Sub II, the Company, the First Surviving Corporation, the Surviving Corporation, the Exchange Agent, the Section 102 Trustee or any TASE member, as the case may be, to the applicable Governmental Entity as required by applicable Law and (b) shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

2.10 Tax Treatment. Each of Parent, SoundHound, Inc., Intermediate Sub, Merger Sub I, Merger Sub II and the Company intends that the exchange of shares of Company Common Stock for the Per Share Merger Consideration and the Per Share Cash Merger Consideration, as applicable, pursuant to the Mergers be treated as a transaction described in Section 1001 of the Code (the “Intended Tax Treatment”). None of Parent, SoundHound, Inc., Intermediate Sub, Merger Sub I, Merger Sub II or the Company or any of their affiliates shall take any position for U.S. federal income tax purposes (and applicable state, local and non-U.S. Tax purposes) on any Tax Return, in any Tax contest or audit or in any communication (whether written or unwritten) with any Governmental Entity that is inconsistent with the Intended Tax Treatment unless required by a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313 of the Code (or any similar provision of state, local or non-U.S. Tax Law).

2.11 Appraisal Rights.

(a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, TASE Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Second Effective Time and held by holder or beneficial owner of TASE Shares who did not vote in favor of the adoption of this Agreement (or consent thereto in writing) and are entitled to demand, and have properly demanded, appraisal of such TASE Shares (“Dissenting Shares”) pursuant to, and who have complied in all respects with, Section 262 of the DGCL (the “Appraisal Rights”) shall not be converted into the right to receive the Per Share Cash Merger Consideration payable pursuant to Section 2.1(b)(i)(A), but instead at the Second Effective Time shall be converted into the right to receive payment of the fair value of such Dissenting Shares in accordance with the Appraisal Rights (it being understood and acknowledged that at the Second Effective Time, such Dissenting Shares shall no longer be outstanding, shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and such holder or beneficial owner shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto other than the right to receive the appraised value of such Dissenting Shares to the extent afforded by the Appraisal Rights); provided, that if any such holder or beneficial owner shall fail to perfect or otherwise shall waive, withdraw or lose the right to payment of the fair value of such Dissenting Shares under the Appraisal Rights, then the right of such holder or beneficial owner to be paid the fair value of such person’s Dissenting Shares shall cease and such Dissenting Shares shall automatically be converted into and shall represent the right to receive the Per Share Cash Merger Consideration.

(b) The Company shall give prompt notice to Parent of any demands received prior to the Second Effective Time by the Company for appraisal of any shares of Company Common Stock, of any withdrawals of such demands and of any other instruments served pursuant to the DGCL and received by the Company relating to Appraisal Rights, and Parent shall be entitled to participate in and direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands. Prior to the Second Effective Time, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of Parent, make any payment with respect to, or settle or compromise or offer to settle or compromise, any such demand, or agree to do any of the foregoing.

(c) With respect to any demand made by a holder of TASE Shares pursuant to and in accordance with this Section 2.11, the Company shall use reasonable efforts to coordinate with TASECH and the applicable TASE members to prevent payment of the Per Share Cash Merger Consideration in respect of such Dissenting Shares held through TASECH, including by requiring that the holder of such Dissenting Shares provide the TASECH any notice or instruction reasonably required by TASECH or the applicable TASE member in order to prevent such payment.

2.12 Prohibition on Transfer. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, from the date of this Agreement until the earlier of the Second Effective Time and the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, no holder or beneficial owner of shares of Company Common Stock shall be permitted to transfer any shares of Company Common Stock (other than TASE Shares) owned by such person to the TASECH such that such shares of Company Common Stock that were not previously TASE Shares would, upon the completion of such transfer, constitute TASE Shares. The Company shall, and shall cause each Company Representative to, use its reasonable best efforts to take all appropriate action to effect the foregoing restriction.

3.5 Required Filings and Consents. Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Parent Parties in Section 4.4, none of the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement by the Company, the consummation by the Company of the Mergers or any other transaction contemplated by this Agreement will require (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both) any consent, approval, authorization or permit of, or filing or registration with or notification to, any Governmental Entity, other than (a) the filing of the First Certificate of Merger and the Second Certificate of Merger as required by the DGCL, (b) compliance with any applicable requirements of any Regulatory Laws, (c) compliance with the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act, Securities Act and any other applicable U.S. state or federal securities Laws, (d) filings with the SEC as may be required by the Company in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and (e) where the failure to obtain such consents, approvals, authorizations or permits of, or to make such filings, registrations with or notifications to any Governmental Entity would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Company Material Adverse Effect. The performance of the obligations under this Agreement, and the consummation of the Mergers or any other transaction contemplated by this Agreement, in each case, will not require the publication of a prospectus or a similar offering document in Israel.

3.6 Compliance With Law. Neither the Company nor any Company Subsidiary is, or since January 1, 2023, has been in conflict with, default under or violation of any Law applicable to the Company or any Company Subsidiary or by which any property or asset of the Company or any Company Subsidiary is bound or affected, except for any conflicts, defaults or violations that have not had and would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Company Material Adverse Effect. To the Knowledge of the Company, no investigation by any Governmental Entity with respect to the Company or any Company Subsidiary is pending, nor has any Governmental Entity indicated to the Company an intention to conduct any such investigation, except for such investigations, the outcomes of which if determined adversely to the Company or any Company Subsidiary have not had and would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Company Material Adverse Effect.

3.7 SEC Filings; Financial Statements.

(a) The Company has filed or furnished all reports, schedules, forms, statements, registration statements, prospectuses and other documents required to be filed or furnished by the Company with the SEC under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act since January 1, 2024 (the “Company SEC Documents”) or with the ISA under the Israeli Securities Laws since January 1, 2024 (the “Company ISA Documents”). No Company Subsidiary is required to make any filings with the SEC.

(c) The consolidated financial statements of the Company included in the Company SEC Documents (including, in each case, any notes or schedules thereto) (the “Company Financial Statements”) fairly present, in all material respects, the consolidated financial condition and the consolidated results of operations, cash flows and changes in stockholders’ equity of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries (on a consolidated basis) as of the respective dates of and for the periods referred to in the Company Financial Statements, and were prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved (except as may be specifically indicated in the notes thereto), subject, in the case of any interim unaudited Company Financial Statements, to normal and recurring year-end adjustments (in each case, except as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to be material to the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, taken as a whole) and the absence of notes and other presentation items (none of which, if presented, would materially differ from those presented in the most recent Company Financial Statements).

(d) The Company has established and maintains disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting (as such terms are defined in paragraphs (e) and (f), respectively, of Rule 13a-15 and paragraph (e) of Rule 15d-15 under the Exchange Act) as required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act. The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that all information (both financial and non-financial) required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or furnishes under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that all such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and to make the certifications required pursuant to Sections 302 and 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The Company’s management has completed an assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures and, to the extent required by applicable Law, presented in any applicable Company SEC Document that is a report on Form 10-K or Form 10-Q, or any amendment thereto, its conclusions about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by such report or amendment based on such evaluation. The Company’s management has not identified any significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in the design or operation of its internal control over financial reporting that would reasonably be expected to adversely affect the Company’s ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information and the Company does not have Knowledge of any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

(e) The Company and the Company Subsidiaries do not have any material liabilities or obligations of any nature (whether absolute or contingent, asserted or unasserted, known or unknown, primary or secondary, direct or indirect, and whether or not accrued) required by GAAP to be reflected or reserved on a consolidated balance sheet of the Company (or the notes thereto) except (i) as specifically and adequately disclosed, reflected or reserved against in the most recent balance sheet included in the Company Financial Statements or the notes thereto, (ii) for liabilities and obligations incurred in the ordinary course of business since the date of the most recent balance sheet included in the Company Financial Statements (none of which is a liability or obligation resulting from a breach of Contract, tort, or infringement), (iii) for liabilities and obligations arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, the Mergers or the other transactions contemplated hereby and (iv) for liabilities and obligations that have not been and would not reasonably be expected to be, individually or in the aggregate, material to the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

and the Registration Statement with the SEC. Each of Parent and the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Registration Statement to become effective under the Securities Act as soon after such filing as practicable and to ensure that the Proxy Statement/Prospectus and Registration Statement comply in all material respects with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act. Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to keep the Registration Statement effective as long as is necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. To the extent not prohibited by Law, each of Parent and the Company agrees to furnish to the other party all information concerning itself, its Subsidiaries, officers, directors, managers, stockholders, and other equityholders and information regarding such other matters, including, without limitation, cooperation to prepare pro forma financial statements and obtain auditor consents, in each case, as may be reasonably necessary or advisable or as may be reasonably requested in connection with the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, Registration Statement, a Form 8-K pursuant to the Exchange Act in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or any other statement, filing, notice or application made by or on behalf of Parent, the Company or their respective Subsidiaries to the SEC, Nasdaq, or pursuant to any state securities or “blue sky” laws, in connection with the Mergers, the Parent Share Issuance and the other transactions contemplated hereby.

If at any time prior to the First Effective Time any information relating to Parent or the Company, or any of their respective affiliates, directors or officers, should be discovered by Parent or the Company which should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to either the Registration Statement or the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, so that either such document would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the party that discovers such information shall promptly notify the other party and an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall be promptly filed with the SEC and, to the extent required by Law, disseminated to the stockholders of the Company.

The Company shall not change the record date or adjourn or postpone the Company Stockholders Meeting without Parent’s prior written consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may adjourn or postpone the Company Stockholders Meeting without Parent’s prior written consent (A) after good faith consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel and Parent, to the extent necessary to ensure that any supplement or amendment to the Proxy Statement/Prospectus required by Law is provided to the stockholders of the Company within a reasonable amount of time in advance of the Company Stockholders Meeting or (B) if there are not sufficient affirmative votes in person or by proxy at such meeting to constitute quorum at the Company Stockholders Meeting or to obtain the Required Company Vote, to allow reasonable additional time for solicitation of proxies for purposes of obtaining a quorum or the Required Company Vote; provided that, unless agreed to in writing by Parent, (x) any such adjournment or postponement shall be for a period of no more than thirty five (35) days and

(f) The Company shall coordinate with TASE, TASECH or the Depository Trust Company to obtain, as close as practicable to the Second Effective Time (and in any event no earlier than five (5) Business Days prior to and no later than two (2) Business Days prior to the Second Effective Time), a final position report or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to Parent confirming the number of TASE Shares for purposes of calculating and funding the Closing TASE Cash Merger Consideration and the Per Share Cash Merger Consideration.

The Company shall promptly (and in any event, within forty-eight (48) hours after the execution of this Agreement) demand that each Person that has previously executed a confidentiality agreement promptly return to the Company or destroy (and confirm destruction of) all non-public information previously furnished or made available to such Person or any of its representatives by or on behalf of the Company or the Company Representatives in accordance with the terms of such confidentiality agreement (except with respect to any such confidentiality agreement as to which the Company has made such a demand prior to the date hereof) and shall remove all access to any dataroom or electronic materials from such Person.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 6.3(a), if at any time following the date of the Original Agreement and prior to obtaining the Required Company Vote (i) the Company has received a bona fide unsolicited written Company Acquisition Proposal from a third party, (ii) the Company has not breached this Section 6.3 with respect to such Company Acquisition Proposal, and (iii) the Company Board (or a duly authorized committee thereof) reasonably determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside counsel and, with respect to financial matters, its financial advisors, based on information then available, that such Company Acquisition Proposal constitutes or would reasonably be expected to result in a Company Superior Proposal, the Company may, including through one or more of the Company Representatives, (A) furnish information with respect to the Company and the Company Subsidiaries to the third party making such Company Acquisition Proposal, its representatives and potential sources of financing and (B) participate in discussions or negotiations with the third party making such Company Acquisition Proposal regarding such Company Acquisition Proposal; provided that the Company shall not, and shall cause the Company Subsidiaries not to, take the actions described in the foregoing clauses (A) and (B) unless the Company Board (or a duly authorized committee thereof) determines in good faith, after consultation with outside counsel, that the failure to take such actions would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law; provided, further that the Company (x) shall not, and shall cause the Company Subsidiaries and Company Representatives not to, disclose any information to such third party without first entering into a Company Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement with such Person and (y) shall provide to Parent any such information concerning the Company or the Company Subsidiaries provided or made available to such other third party which was not previously provided or made available to Parent prior to or substantially concurrently with furnishing such information to such third party.

(c) If, at any time following the date of the Original Agreement, the Company or any Company Subsidiary receives any (i) Company Acquisition Proposal (or inquiry, offer or request for discussions or negotiations that could reasonably be expected to lead to a Company Acquisition Proposal), (ii) any request for non-public information relating to the Company or any Company Subsidiary by any Person who has made or would reasonably be expected to make a Company Acquisition Proposal, or (iii) any inquiry or request for discussions or negotiations regarding any Company Acquisition Proposal, the Company shall promptly (and in any event within twenty-four (24) hours) (i) notify Parent orally or in writing of the receipt of such proposal, inquiry or request and (ii) advise Parent if the Company determines to begin providing information in connection with, or to engage in discussions or negotiations concerning, a Company Acquisition Proposal pursuant to Section 6.3(b). Such notice provided by the Company to Parent pursuant to this Section 6.3(c) shall include (I) the identity of the Person making the Company Acquisition Proposal, inquiry, offer or request, (II) if in writing, a copy of such Company Acquisition Proposal, inquiry, offer or request (and, if available, drafts of any Contract to effectuate such Company Acquisition Proposal) and copies of any financing commitments (but excluding any fee letters that are customarily redacted with respect thereto) received by the Company in connection therewith and (III) if made orally, a reasonably detailed summary of the material terms and conditions of such Company Acquisition Proposal. From the date of the Original Agreement until the earlier to occur of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to and in accordance with Section 8.1 and the Second Effective Time, the Company shall (i) keep Parent and the Merger Subs reasonably informed of the status and any material changes to the material terms and conditions of any such Company Acquisition Proposal (including by providing unredacted copies of all amendments and proposed amendments provided to or by such Person) and (ii) shall notify Parent promptly (and, in any event, within 24 hours) after it first enters into discussions or negotiations concerning such Company Acquisition Proposal or provides non-public information or data to any Person relating thereto.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 6.3(a), if following the date of the Original Agreement and prior to obtaining the Required Company Vote (i) (A) the Company has received a bona fide unsolicited written Company Acquisition Proposal (which is not withdrawn) that the Company Board (or any duly authorized committee thereof) determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside counsel and, with respect to financial matters, its financial advisors, constitutes a Company Superior Proposal or (B) the Company Board (or any duly authorized committee thereof) determines that a Company Intervening Event has occurred and is continuing and (ii) the Company Board (or any duly authorized committee thereof) reasonably determines in good faith, after consultation with outside counsel, that the failure to effect a Change of Company Board Recommendation in response to such Company Superior Proposal or Company Intervening Event would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law, then the Company Board may, at any time prior to obtaining the Required Company Vote, effect a Change of Company Board Recommendation with respect to such Company Superior Proposal or Company Intervening Event (as applicable) or fail to include the Company Board Recommendation in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, subject to the requirements of this Section 6.3(d) and Section 6.3(e).

(e) The Company shall not be entitled to effect a Change of Company Board Recommendation pursuant to Section 6.3(d) unless, in each case:

(i) the Company shall have provided to Parent at least five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice (the “Company Notice Period”) of the Company’s intention to take such action, which notice shall include, (A) with respect to a Company Acquisition Proposal, the material terms and conditions of such Company Acquisition Proposal, and a copy of the available proposed transaction agreement to be entered into in respect of such Company Acquisition Proposal, or (B) with respect to a Company Intervening Event, a reasonably detailed summary of the Company Intervening Event that is the basis of such action;

(ii) during the Company Notice Period, if requested by Parent, the Company shall have, and shall have caused its legal and financial advisors to have, engaged in good faith negotiations with Parent regarding any amendment to this Agreement or any other agreement proposed by Parent intended to (A) with respect to a Company Acquisition Proposal, cause the relevant proposal to no longer constitute a Company Superior Proposal or, (B) with respect to a Company Intervening Event, permit the Company Board (consistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law) to not make a Change of Company Board Recommendation; and

(iii) the Company Board (or any duly authorized committee thereof) shall have considered in good faith any adjustments and/or proposed amendments to this Agreement (including a change to the price terms hereof) and other agreements that may be offered in writing by Parent no later than 11:59 a.m., New York City time, on the last day of the Company Notice Period and shall have reasonably determined again in good faith, after consultation with outside legal counsel and, with respect to financial matters, its financial advisors, that the failure to effect a Change of Company Board Recommendation pursuant to this Section 6.3 would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law.

In the event of any material revisions to such Company Superior Proposal offered in writing by the party making such Company Superior Proposal or any material change to the facts and circumstances relating to a Company Intervening Event, as applicable, the Company shall be required to deliver a new written notice to Parent and to again comply with the requirements of this Section 6.3(e) with respect to such new written notice, except that the Company Notice Period shall be three (3) Business Days with respect to any such revised Company Superior Proposal, but no such new written notice shall shorten the original Company Notice Period.

(f) Notwithstanding a Change of Company Board Recommendation or any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, unless this Agreement has been validly terminated pursuant to and in accordance with Section 8.1, the Company shall cause the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Mergers, to be submitted to a vote of the stockholders of the Company at the Company Stockholders Meeting in order to obtain the Required Company Vote.

(g) Nothing contained in this Section 6.3 shall prohibit the Company Board (or any duly authorized committee thereof) from (i) disclosing to the stockholders of the Company a position contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a) or Rule 14d-9 promulgated under the Exchange Act; or (ii) making any disclosure to the stockholders of the Company to comply with applicable Law with regard to a Company Acquisition Proposal (it being agreed that the issuance by the Company or the Company Board of a “stop, look and listen” communication to the stockholders of the Company pursuant to Rule 14d-9(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act, shall not constitute a Change of Company Board Recommendation).

(h) Any violation of the restrictions provided in this Section 6.3 by any Company Subsidiary or Company Representative, as applicable, shall be deemed to be a breach of this Section 6.3 by the Company.

(i) The Company agrees that it shall promptly inform the Company Representatives of the obligations undertaken in this Section 6.3. Nothing in this Section 6.3 shall (x) permit the Company to terminate this Agreement or (y) affect any other obligation of the Company under this Agreement. Unless this Agreement shall have been earlier terminated, the Company shall not submit to the vote of its stockholders any Company Acquisition Proposal.

6.4 Appropriate Action; Consents; Filings.

(a) The Company and Parent shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to (i) take, or cause to be taken, all appropriate action and do, or cause to be done, and to assist and cooperate with the parties in doing, all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Law or otherwise to consummate and make effective the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement as promptly as practicable after the date hereof, (ii) take such actions as may be required to cause the expiration of the notice periods under Regulatory Laws with respect to such transactions as promptly as practicable after the date hereof, (iii) obtain from any Governmental Entities any consents, licenses, permits, waivers, approvals, authorizations or orders required to be obtained by Parent or the Company, or any of their respective Subsidiaries, in order to effect the Closing by not later than two Business Days prior to the Outside Date, and to avoid any Proceeding by any Governmental Entity (including those in connection with Regulatory Laws), in connection with the authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Mergers, (iv) cause the satisfaction of all conditions set forth in Article 7 and (v) as promptly as practicable, make or cause to be made all necessary applications and filings, and thereafter make any other required submissions, and pay any fees due in connection therewith (all such fees to be borne by Parent to the extent related to applications, filings or submissions with respect to this Agreement and the Mergers required under any Regulatory Laws), with respect to this Agreement and the Mergers required under any Regulatory Laws and any other applicable Law. Promptly following the date hereof, the parties shall cooperate to revise, amend or refile, or cause to be revised, amended or refiled, any filings previously made with any Governmental Entity with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to the extent required by Regulatory Laws to reflect the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The Company and Parent shall cooperate with each other in connection with (x) preparing and filing the Proxy Statement/Prospectus and Registration Statement and any Other Filings, (y) determining whether any action by or in respect of, or filing with, any Governmental Entity is required, in connection with the consummation of the Mergers and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (z) seeking any such actions, consents, approvals or waivers or making any such filings. The Company and Parent shall furnish to each other all information required for any application or other filing under the rules and regulations of any applicable Law in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Company shall not consent to any voluntary extension of the Outside Date or otherwise delay the Closing at the behest of any Governmental

Entity without the consent of Parent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Parent, and its affiliates, in connection with efforts to avoid or eliminate impediments under any antitrust, merger control, competition, or trade regulation Law that may be asserted by any Governmental Entity with respect to the Mergers, are not obligated to, and, without the prior written consent of Parent, the Company, its Subsidiaries and their respective affiliates shall not, (A) propose, negotiate, commit to, or effect, by consent decree, hold separate order, or otherwise, the sale, divestiture, licensing or disposition of any assets, properties or businesses of Parent or the Company or any of their respective affiliates, (B) terminate, amend or assign existing relationships and contractual rights and obligations, (C) grant any right or commercial or other accommodation to, or enter into any material commercial contractual or other commercial relationship with, any third party, or (D) accept any operational restrictions or otherwise take or commit to take actions that limit Parent’s, the Merger Subs’, the Surviving Corporation’s or any of their respective affiliate’s freedom of action with respect to, or its or their ability to retain, any of the assets, properties, licenses, rights, product lines, operations or businesses of Parent, the Company or any of their respective affiliates. In addition, Parent, at Parent’s sole discretion, and the Company shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to defend through litigation and through appeal on the merits any claim asserted in court by any party in order to avoid entry of, or to have vacated or terminated, any Order (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) that would prevent the Closing from occurring as promptly as practicable (and in any event, no later than the Outside Date), including seeking to lift or rescind any injunction or restraining order which may adversely affect the ability of the parties to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, in each case, until the issuance of a final, non-appealable Order. The parties shall jointly develop, consult and cooperate with one another regarding the strategy for obtaining any necessary approval of, or responding to any request from, inquiry by, or investigation by (including directing the timing, nature and substance of all such responses), any Governmental Entity in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including determining the timing and content of any registrations, filings, agreements, forms, notices, petitions, statements, submissions of information, applications and other documents, communications and correspondence contemplated by, made in accordance with, or subject to this Section 6.4. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Parent shall, on behalf of the parties, control and direct all communications and strategy in dealing with any Governmental Entity under any Regulatory Laws; provided that, Parent shall consider in good faith the views and comments of the Company and its outside counsel with respect to such communications and strategies.

(b) The Company shall give (or shall cause the Company Subsidiaries to give) any notices to third parties, and use, and cause the Company Subsidiaries to use, reasonable best efforts to obtain the third party consents, approvals or waivers identified on Section 3.4 and 3.5 of the Company Disclosure Schedule (provided, that the Company shall not be required to make or agree to make any payment or accept any material conditions or obligations with respect thereto), and the Company and Parent shall coordinate and cooperate in seeking any such consents, approvals or waivers. In the event that the Company shall fail to obtain any third party consent described in the first sentence of this Section 6.4(b), the Company shall take any such actions reasonably requested by Parent (at Parent’s sole cost and expense), to minimize any adverse effect upon Parent and its Subsidiaries (including the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries), and their respective businesses resulting after, or which would reasonably be expected to result after, the Second Effective Time from the failure to obtain such consent.

(c) Without limiting the generality of anything contained in this Section 6.4, and subject to Section 6.6, each party shall: (i) give the other parties prompt notice of the making or commencement of any request, inquiry, investigation or Proceeding by or before any Governmental Entity with respect to the Mergers or any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (ii) keep the other parties informed as to the status of any such request, inquiry, investigation or Proceeding; and (iii) promptly inform the other parties of any communication to or from any Governmental Entity regarding the Mergers or any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each party shall consult and cooperate with the other parties, and shall consider in good faith the views of the other parties in connection with any filing, analysis, appearance, presentation, memorandum, brief, argument, opinion or proposal made or submitted in connection with the Mergers or any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In addition, except as may be prohibited by any Governmental Entity or by any Law, in connection with any such request, inquiry, investigation or Proceeding, each party shall permit authorized representatives of the other parties to be present at each meeting or conference relating to such request, inquiry, investigation or Proceeding and to have access to and be consulted in connection with any document, opinion or proposal made or submitted to any Governmental Entity in connection with such request, inquiry, investigation or Proceeding.

(d) Parent shall not, and shall cause its affiliates not to, acquire or agree to acquire a substantial portion of the equity or assets of, or other interests in, or merge or consolidate with (or agree to merge or consolidate with), any corporation, partnership, association or other business organization, or any business unit, division, subsidiary thereof, if such action would reasonably be expected to (i) result in any Governmental Entity seeking or entering an Order prohibiting the consummation of the Mergers or any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (ii) otherwise prevent or materially delay the consummation of the Mergers or any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(e) Nothing contained in this Agreement shall give any party, directly or indirectly, the right to control or direct the operations of any other party prior to the consummation of the Mergers. Prior to the Second Effective Time, the Company and Parent shall exercise, consistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, complete unilateral control and supervision over their respective business operations.

6.5 Certain Notices. From and after the date of the Original Agreement until the earlier of the Second Effective Time or the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Article 8, unless prohibited by applicable Law, each party shall promptly notify the other party of any material Effect that would reasonably be expected to cause any condition to the obligations of any party to effect the Mergers or any other transactions contemplated by this Agreement not to be satisfied, including of the breach by a party of, or any other failure of a party to comply with or satisfy any, representation, warranty, covenant, condition or agreement made, or to be complied with or satisfied, by it pursuant to this Agreement which would reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in any condition to the obligations of any party to effect the Mergers not to be satisfied (provided, however, that the delivery of any notice pursuant to this Section 6.5 shall not cure any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or otherwise limit or affect the remedies available hereunder to the party receiving such notice). Any such notice pursuant to this Section 6.5 shall not affect any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement and any failure to make such notice (in and of itself) shall not be taken into account in determining whether the conditions set forth in Article 7 have been satisfied or give rise to any right of termination set forth in Article 8.

6.6 Stockholder Litigation. The Company shall promptly advise Parent, and give Parent the opportunity to participate in the defense, of any claim, demand, other correspondence related to stockholder litigation against the Company and/or its directors and officers, or any of them, in connection with or relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (collectively, “Company Transaction Litigation”), including the Mergers, and shall keep Parent reasonably informed regarding any such Company Transaction Litigation. The Company shall give Parent the opportunity to consult with the Company regarding the defense or settlement of any such Company Transaction Litigation, and shall consider in good faith Parent’s views with respect to such Company Transaction Litigation. The Company shall not issue any supplemental disclosure, make any commitments with respect to, or otherwise settle or agree to settle any such Company Transaction Litigation without Parent’s prior written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). For purposes of this Section 6.6, “participate” means that Parent will be kept apprised of proposed strategy and other significant decisions with respect to any such Company Transaction Litigation by the Company (to the extent that the attorney-client privilege between the Company and its counsel is not undermined), and Parent may offer comments or suggestions with respect to such Company Transaction Litigation, which the Company shall consider in good faith, but will not be afforded any decision-making power or other authority over such Company Transaction Litigation except for the settlement consent set forth above.

6.7 Public Announcements. So long as this Agreement is in effect, Parent and the Parent Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, on the other, shall not issue any press release or make any public statement with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby without the prior written consent of the other party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), except (a) as may be required by applicable Law, or the rules or regulations of any applicable United States securities exchange or regulatory or governmental body to which the relevant party is subject, in which case the party required to make the release or announcement shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to allow each other party reasonable time to comment on such release or announcement in advance of such issuance, or (b) is consistent with prior communications previously consented to by the other parties. The press release announcing the execution and delivery of this Agreement shall be a joint release of, and shall not be issued prior to the approval of each of, the Company and Parent.

6.8 Employee Benefit Matters.

(a) During the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the last day of the year in which the Closing occurs, Parent shall, or shall cause one of its affiliates (including the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries) to provide each Continuing Employee with (i) a total target cash opportunity (i.e., inclusive of an annual base salary or base wage rate and a target annual cash bonus opportunity, and excluding an equity or equity-linked compensation opportunity) and (ii) employee health and welfare benefits, in each case, that is or are, in Parent’s reasonable discretion, either (A) no less favorable in the aggregate than such target cash opportunity or benefits in effect for the Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing, or

(B) no less favorable in the aggregate than such target cash opportunity or benefits provided to similarly situated employees of Parent or Parent’s affiliates. With respect to each Continuing Employee, if such employee experiences a “qualifying termination” (as defined on Section 6.8(a) of the Company Disclosure Schedule) during the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the last day of the year in which the Closing occurs, Parent shall, or shall cause one of its affiliates (including the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries), to provide severance payments to such employee in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth on Section 6.8(a) of the Company Disclosure Schedule (taking into account such employee’s years of service as required pursuant to Section 6.8(b)).

(b) For all purposes (including purposes of vesting, eligibility to participate and level of benefits) under the employee benefit plans of Parent and its Subsidiaries providing benefits to any Continuing Employees after the Second Effective Time (the “New Plans”), each Continuing Employee shall, subject to applicable law and applicable tax qualification requirements, be credited with his or her years of service with the Company and its Subsidiaries and their respective predecessors before the First Effective Time, to the same extent as such Continuing Employee was entitled, before the First Effective Time, to credit for such service under any similar Company Benefit Plan in which such Continuing Employee participated or was eligible to participate immediately prior to the First Effective Time; provided that, the foregoing shall not apply (i) to the extent that its application would result in a duplication of benefits, (ii) for purposes of any equity-based incentive plan, long-term incentive plan, pension plan, retiree welfare plan, or (iii) to any benefit plan that is a frozen plan or provides grandfathered benefits. In addition, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (i) each Continuing Employee shall be immediately eligible to participate, without any waiting time (other than any administrative delays in connection with any transition to Parent’s tax qualified defined contribution plan), in any New Plans to the extent coverage under such New Plan is of the same type as the Company Benefit Plan in which such Continuing Employee participated immediately before the First Effective Time (such plans, collectively, the “Old Plans”), and (ii)(A) for purposes of each New Plan providing medical, dental, pharmaceutical or vision benefits to any Continuing Employee, Parent or its applicable Subsidiary shall cause all preexisting condition exclusions and actively-at-work requirements of such New Plan to be waived for such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents, unless such conditions would not have been waived under the Old Plan in which such Continuing Employee participated immediately prior to the First Effective Time and (B) Parent and its applicable Subsidiary shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause any eligible expenses incurred by such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents during the portion of the plan year of the Old Plan ending on the date such employee’s participation in the corresponding New Plan begins to be taken into account under such New Plan for purposes of satisfying all deductible and maximum out-of-pocket requirements applicable to such employee and his or her covered dependents for the applicable plan year as if such amounts had been paid in accordance with such New Plan.

(c) Unless otherwise directed by Parent in writing delivered to the Company not less than five Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company and each of the Company Subsidiaries shall adopt resolutions and take all such corporate action as is necessary to terminate each (i) 401(k) plan maintained, sponsored or contributed to by the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company 401(k) Plans”), in each case, effective as of the day immediately prior to the Closing Date, and (ii) each Company Benefit Plan that is a

“nonqualified deferred compensation plan” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. The Company shall provide Parent with evidence that such Company 401(k) Plans and nonqualified deferred compensation plans have been properly terminated, and the form of such termination documents shall be subject to the reasonable approval of Parent. In the event of the termination of any Company 401(k) Plan pursuant to this Section 6.8(c) (each such terminated Company 401(k) Plan, a “Terminated Company 401(k) Plan”), Parent or the applicable Parent Subsidiary shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause a defined contribution plan that is qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code, that includes a cash or deferred arrangement within the meaning of Section 401(k) of the Code and that is established or maintained by Parent or the applicable Parent Subsidiary to accept eligible rollover distributions (as defined in Section 402(c)(4) of the Code) from current and former employees of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries with respect to such individuals’ account balances (excluding loans)under such Terminated Company 401(k) Plan, if elected by any such individuals.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, no provision of this Agreement shall be deemed to (i) guarantee employment for any period of time for, or preclude the ability of Parent or the Surviving Corporation to terminate the employment of, any Continuing Employee for any reason; (ii) require the Company, Parent or the Surviving Corporation to continue any Company Benefit Plan, Parent Benefit Plan or prevent the amendment, modification or termination thereof; or (iii) amend, terminate, establish or create any Company Benefit Plan or Parent Benefit Plan or other employee benefit plans or arrangements. The provisions of this Section 6.8 are solely for the benefit of the parties, and no Continuing Employee (including any beneficiary or dependent thereof) shall be regarded for any purpose as a third party beneficiary of this Agreement, and no provision of this Section 6.8 shall create such rights in any such persons.

6.9 Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

(a) For a period beginning at the Second Effective Time and ending six years after the Second Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, indemnify and hold harmless all past and present directors and officers of the Company or any Company Subsidiary (the “Covered Persons”), subject to applicable Law, to the same extent such Covered Persons are indemnified as of the date of the Original Agreement by the Company or any Company Subsidiary pursuant to applicable Law, the Company Charter, the Company Bylaws, the certificate of incorporation and bylaws (or equivalent organizational or governing documents) of any Company Subsidiary or indemnification agreements (that have been made available to Parent prior to the date of the Original Agreement), if any, in existence on the date of the Original Agreement with any directors or officers of the Company or any Company Subsidiary for any Proceedings arising out of acts or omissions in their capacity as directors or officers of the Company or any Company Subsidiary, as applicable, occurring at or prior to the First Effective Time. The Surviving Corporation shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, indemnify and hold harmless the Covered Persons to the fullest extent permitted by Law, for acts or omissions occurring in connection with the adoption and approval of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby. The Surviving Corporation shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, advance expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) incurred in the defense of any Proceeding or investigation with respect to the matters subject to indemnification pursuant to this Section 6.9(a)

in accordance with the procedures set forth with respect to any Covered Person in the Company Charter, the Company Bylaws, the certificate of incorporation and bylaws (or equivalent organizational documents) of any Company Subsidiary, or indemnification agreements (that have been made available to Parent prior to the date of the Original Agreement), if any, in existence on the date of the Original Agreement with any directors and officers of the Company or any Company Subsidiary; provided, however, that the Covered Person to whom expenses are advanced shall undertake to repay such advanced expenses by the Surviving Corporation, if it is ultimately determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction that such Covered Person is not entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 6.9(a). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any Proceeding (whether arising before, at or after the First Effective Time) is made against such persons with respect to matters subject to indemnification hereunder on or prior to the sixth anniversary of the Second Effective Time, the provisions of this Section 6.9(a) shall continue in effect until the final disposition of such Proceeding.

(b) For not less than six years from and after the Second Effective Time, the organizational documents of the Surviving Corporation shall contain provisions no less favorable with respect to exculpation, indemnification of and advancement of expenses to Covered Persons for periods at or prior to the First Effective Time than are currently set forth with respect to any Covered Person, in the Company Charter, the Company Bylaws, the certificate of incorporation and bylaws, or equivalent organizational documents, of any Company Subsidiary in existence on the date of the Original Agreement. For not less than six years from the Second Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall not amend, repeal or otherwise modify the exculpation, indemnification and advancement of expenses provisions of its or any of its Subsidiaries’ certificates of incorporation or by-laws or similar organizational documents as in effect immediately prior to the First Effective Time in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of any Covered Person. In the event that Parent or the Surviving Corporation (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and is not the continuing or Surviving Corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, Parent or the Surviving Corporation (as applicable) shall cause proper provision to be made so that the successors and assigns of Parent or the Surviving Corporation (as applicable) assume the obligations set forth in this Section 6.9(b), unless such assumption occurs by operation of Law.

(c) For not less than six years from and after the Second Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, and the Surviving Corporation shall, maintain in effect, the Company’s current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies covering acts or omissions occurring (or alleged to occur) prior to or at the First Effective Time with respect to Covered Persons; provided, however, that in no event shall the Surviving Corporation be required to expend pursuant to this Section 6.9(c) more than an amount per year equal to 300% of current annual premiums paid by the Company for such insurance. In the event that, but for the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, the Surviving Corporation would be required to expend more than 300% of current annual premiums, the Surviving Corporation shall obtain the maximum amount of such insurance obtainable by payment of annual premiums equal to 300% of current annual premiums. In lieu of the foregoing, the Company, in consultation with Parent, may (and at the request of Parent, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to) purchase at or prior to the First Effective Time, and/or the Surviving Corporation may purchase following the Second Effective Time, a six-year “tail” prepaid officers’ and directors’ liability insurance policy in respect of acts or omissions occurring prior to the First Effective Time covering each such Covered Person for an amount not to exceed 300% of current annual premiums. If such “tail” policy has been established by Parent or the Company, the Surviving Corporation shall not terminate such policy and shall cause all obligations of Parent or the Company thereunder to be honored by the Surviving Corporation.

(d) Following the Second Effective Time, the obligations under this Section 6.9 shall not be terminated or modified in any manner that is adverse to the Covered Persons (and their respective successors and assigns) without the consent of such affected Covered Person (or their respective successors and assigns) (it being expressly agreed that the Covered Persons (including successors and assigns) shall be third party beneficiaries of this Section 6.9).

6.10 Section 16 Matters. Prior to the First Effective Time, the Company shall take all such steps as may be reasonable necessary or appropriate to cause any dispositions of Company Common Stock (including derivative securities with respect to Company Common Stock) or acquisitions of Parent Common Stock (including derivative securities with respect to Parent Common Stock) resulting from the transactions contemplated hereby by each individual who is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act with respect to the Company to be exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

6.11 Listing Matters.

Parties or any of their respective affiliates or associates is an “Acquiring Person” (as defined in the Tax Benefits Preservation Plan) for purposes of the Tax Benefits Preservation Plan or (ii) make a determination contrary to, or in any way revoke, rescind or modify the Tax Benefits Preservation Plan Waiver.

(d) If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8.1(b), Section 8.1(d) or Section 8.1(g) and, in any such case, (i) a Company Acquisition Proposal shall have been publicly disclosed or announced or shall have become publicly known or made known to the Company Board or senior management of the Company, and shall not have been publicly withdrawn, in each case, after the date hereof and prior to the time of the Company Stockholders Meeting (in the case of a termination pursuant to Section 8.1(d)) or the date of such termination

(in the case of a termination pursuant to Section 8.1(b) or Section 8.1(g)) and (ii) within twelve (12) months following such termination, the Company or any Company Subsidiary enters into a definitive agreement with respect to, or consummates, a Company Acquisition Proposal, then the Company shall pay, or caused to be paid, to Parent the Company Termination Fee no later than two Business Days following the consummation of such transaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8.1(b), Section 8.1(d) or Section 8.1(g), and the holders of the Secured Notes or any of their respective Related Funds (as defined in the Notes Restructuring Agreement), in each case, were not a Person or a part of a group of Persons (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) that submitted the Company Acquisition Proposal described in Section 8.3(d)(i) and have otherwise complied in all material respects with their obligations under the Notes Restructuring Agreement prior to the date of such termination, the holders of the Secured Notes shall be entitled to propose to the Company a bona fide restructuring transaction and/or that the Company become subject to a voluntary or involuntary reorganization or restructuring under applicable Laws relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or the protection of creditors generally with respect to the Company and the Secured Notes or otherwise enter into a definitive agreement to effect such reorganization or restructuring process during the twelve (12) month period following such termination; provided, that, upon the consummation of such restructuring transaction, (1) the Company shall pay, or cause to be paid, to Parent an amount equal to the lesser of (I) Parent’s documented Expenses incurred prior to (and including) the date of such termination and (II) the Parent Expense Cap and (2) without limiting the Company’s obligation pursuant to the foregoing clause (1), the Company shall not otherwise be required to pay or cause to be paid to Parent the Company Termination Fee. For purposes of this Section 8.3(d), the term “Company Acquisition Proposal” shall have the meaning assigned to such term in Section 9.4, except that the references to “15%” and “85%” therein shall be deemed to be references to “50%”.

(f) Each of the parties acknowledges and agrees (i) that the agreements contained in this Section 8.3 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) that without these agreements the parties would not enter into this Agreement, and (iii) that the Company Termination Fee is not a penalty, but rather is liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate Parent and the Merger Subs in the circumstances in which such Company Termination Fee is payable; provided, that no payment of the Company Termination Fee shall be considered in lieu of, or a replacement or substitution for, damages incurred in the event of Willful and Material Breach or Fraud. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the Company be required to pay the Company Termination Fee on more than one occasion.

(g) If the Company fails to pay (or cause to be paid) the Company Termination Fee or, in the case of the penultimate sentence of Section 8.3(d), Parent’s Expenses up to the Parent Expense Cap, in each case when due, the Company shall pay to Parent, together with the Company Termination Fee (or, in the case of the penultimate sentence of Section 8.3(d), Parent’s Expenses up to the Parent Expense Cap), (A) interest on the Company Termination Fee (or, in the case of the penultimate sentence of Section 8.3(d), Parent’s Expenses up to the Parent

9.6 Headings. The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

9.7 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (together with the Exhibits, the Company Disclosure Schedule and the other documents delivered pursuant hereto), the Confidentiality Agreement and the Clean Team Agreement constitute the entire agreement of the parties and supersede all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, among the parties, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Original Agreement) and, except as otherwise expressly provided herein or therein, are not intended to confer upon any other Person any rights or remedies hereunder or thereunder.

9.8 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement shall be assigned, in whole or in part, by any of the parties without the prior written consent of the other parties. Any attempted or purported assignment in violation of the preceding sentence shall be null and void and of no effect whatsoever. Subject to the preceding two sentences, this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties and their respective successors and assigns.

9.9 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of Law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to Parent or the Company. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the extent possible.

9.10 No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and assigns, and, subject to Section 6.9(a), nothing in this Agreement is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement. The representations and warranties in this Agreement are the product of negotiations among the parties and are for the sole benefit of the parties. Any inaccuracies in such representations and warranties are subject to waiver by the parties without notice or liability to any other Person. In some instances, the representations and warranties in this Agreement may represent an allocation among the parties of risks associated with particular matters regardless of the knowledge of any of the parties, and consequently, may not accurately characterize actual facts or circumstances.

9.11 Mutual Drafting; Interpretation. Each party has participated in the drafting of this Agreement, which each party acknowledges is the result of extensive negotiations between the parties. If an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provision. For purposes of this Agreement, whenever the context requires: the singular number shall include the plural, and vice versa; the masculine gender shall include the feminine and neuter genders; the feminine gender shall include the masculine and neuter genders; and the neuter gender shall include masculine and

Each of the parties agrees that a final judgment in any such Proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law. Each party to this Agreement, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.3.

9.14 Specific Performance. The parties agree that if any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or are otherwise breached (including failing to take such actions as are required by the parties hereunder to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby), irreparable damage would occur, no adequate remedy at Law would exist and damages would be difficult to determine, and accordingly, subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 9.14, (a) the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to specific performance of the terms hereof, in each case, in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or, solely if such court does not have subject matter jurisdiction, the Superior Court of the State of Delaware (Complex

It is accordingly agreed that, prior to the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Article 8, the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement (without necessity of posting bond or other security (any requirements therefor being expressly waived)) in accordance with Section 9.12, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at Law or in equity.

No failure or delay of any party in exercising any right or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such right or power, or any course of conduct, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the parties hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies which they would otherwise have hereunder.
