Item
1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On
September 8, 2026, GameSquare Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company” or “Parent”), GameSquare IP
Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Buyer”), FanEngine Holdings Ltd.,
a private limited company organized under the laws of England and Wales (“Seller”), the Seller Securityholders party thereto
(the “Seller Securityholders”), and Jesper Schertiger, solely in his capacity as representative of the Seller Securityholders
(the “Seller Securityholder Representative”), entered into a Contribution Agreement (the “Contribution Agreement”).
Pursuant
to the Contribution Agreement and subject to its terms and conditions, at the closing of the transactions contemplated thereby (the “Closing”),
Seller will contribute, assign, transfer, convey and deliver to Buyer, and Buyer will acquire from Seller, all or substantially all of
Seller’s right, title and interest in and to the assets, properties and rights used or held for use in the business, other than
specified excluded assets (collectively, the “Purchased Assets”). The Purchased Assets include certain assigned contracts,
specified intellectual property assets and licensed intellectual property, certain books and records, rights under warranties and indemnities
relating to the Purchased Assets, specified claims and causes of action, and the goodwill and going-concern value associated with the
Purchased Assets.
Buyer
will assume only the liabilities expressly identified in the Contribution Agreement (the “Assumed Liabilities”), including
(i) trade accounts payable to third parties that remain unpaid and are not delinquent as of the Closing, arose in the ordinary course
of business consistent with past practice, and do not exceed $25,000 in the aggregate as of the Closing, and (ii) specified obligations
under assigned contracts that are required to be performed after the Closing and do not relate to a pre-Closing breach, default or violation
by Seller. Seller will retain all other liabilities, subject to the terms of the Contribution Agreement.
As
consideration for the Purchased Assets, at the Closing, the Company will issue directly to the Seller Securityholders shares of the Company’s
common stock, equal in the aggregate to thirty percent (30%) of the total issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common
stock as of the Closing, after giving effect to such issuance (the “Issued Shares”). Buyer will also assume the Assumed Liabilities.
No Issued Shares or other stock consideration will be issued before the Closing, and all stock consideration is subject to receipt
of the Company Stockholder Approval described below and the satisfaction or waiver of the other applicable closing conditions.
The
Seller Securityholders will also be eligible to receive additional contingent stock consideration consisting of shares of the Company’s
common stock equal in the aggregate up to ten percent (10%) of the total issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common
stock as of the Closing, after giving effect to the applicable issuance (the “Share Earnout Amount”). The Share Earnout Amount
may be earned in two tranches. The first tranche, equal to five percent (5%) of the Company’s outstanding common stock as of the
Closing, may be earned following Closing if the Purchased Assets generate either (i) at least one month of recognized revenue in excess
of $3 million during the six-month period immediately following Closing or (ii) annualized recognized revenue of at least $30 million
calculated based on such six-month period. The second tranche, equal to an additional five percent (5%) of the Company’s outstanding
common stock as of the Closing, may be earned following Closing if the Purchased Assets generate either (i) at least one month of recognized
revenue in excess of $6 million during the period beginning six months after Closing and ending eighteen months after Closing or (ii)
annualized recognized revenue of at least $60 million during such period.
The
Seller Securityholders will also be eligible to receive contingent cash consideration of up to $50 million in the aggregate (the “Cash
Earnout Amount”). For the earnout period ending December 31, 2027, the Seller Securityholders may receive $0.50 for every $1.00
of Earnout Net Income in excess of $8 million, up to a maximum payment of $25 million. For the earnout period ending December 31, 2028,
the Seller Securityholders may receive $0.50 for every $1.00 of Earnout Net Income in excess of $25 million, up to an additional maximum
payment of $25 million.
Following
the Closing, the Seller Securityholders will collectively own shares representing thirty percent (30%) of the Company’s issued
and outstanding common stock, calculated immediately after issuance of the Issued Shares. If all milestones applicable to the Share Earnout
Amount are achieved, the Seller Securityholders could receive additional shares representing up to an aggregate ten percent (10%) of
the Company’s outstanding common stock as of the Closing, calculated pursuant to the Contribution Agreement. Because the potential
issuance of the Issued Shares and Share Earnout Amount exceeds twenty percent (20%) of the Company’s outstanding common stock and
voting power, approval of the Company’s stockholders is required pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(a), and the Closing is conditioned
upon receipt of such approval. The Company will prepare and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”)
a proxy statement relating to a special meeting of the Company’s stockholders to obtain approval of the issuance of the Issued
Shares and any shares comprising the Share Earnout Amount as required by Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(a) (the “Company Stockholder
Approval”). The Company has agreed to solicit proxies in favor of the proposal, and the board of directors of the Company has agreed
to recommend that stockholders approve the proposal, subject to the terms and conditions of the Contribution Agreement.
The
Closing is to occur remotely by electronic exchange of documents and signatures on the second business day after satisfaction or waiver
of the applicable conditions to Closing, other than conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, or at another
time, date or place as Seller and Buyer may agree in writing. The Closing is subject to customary closing conditions, including (i) receipt
of the Company Stockholder Approval, (ii) approval of the Issued Shares for listing on Nasdaq, subject to official notice of issuance,
(iii) receipt or making of required governmental approvals, filings and registrations, (iv) the absence of certain legal restraints or
proceedings prohibiting the transaction and (v) continued compliance with the parties’ obligations under the Contribution Agreement.
Effective
as of the Closing, the Company must take the actions necessary to appoint two individuals designated by two Designated Holders
(as defined in the Contribution Agreement) to the Company’s board of directors, subject to applicable qualification, independence
and regulatory requirements. Subject to the ownership threshold and other conditions set forth in the Contribution Agreement,
the Company will include each qualifying designee in the board’s slate of nominees at future annual meetings and use reasonable
best efforts to cause the election of such designee.
The
Contribution Agreement also contains customary representations, warranties, covenants, indemnification provisions and termination rights.
The Contribution Agreement may be terminated before the Closing (i) by mutual written consent of Buyer and Seller, (ii) by Buyer or Seller
following a material breach by the other party that is not waived or cured within 30 days after notice, (iii) by Buyer or Seller
if specified closing conditions become impossible to satisfy, other than as a result of the terminating party’s failure to comply
with its obligations, or (iv) by Buyer or Seller if the Closing has not occurred by December 31, 2026, subject to the terms of the
Contribution Agreement.
The
foregoing summary of the Contribution Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby does not purport to be complete and is qualified
in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Contribution Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on
Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
The
Contribution Agreement has been included to provide investors with information regarding its terms. It is not intended to provide factual
information about the Company, Buyer, Seller, the Seller Securityholders or their respective affiliates. The representations,
warranties and covenants contained in the Contribution Agreement were made only for purposes of that agreement, were made solely for
the benefit of the parties thereto, and may be subject to qualifications and limitations agreed upon by the parties, including confidential
disclosures made for purposes of allocating contractual risk, and may be subject to standards of materiality that differ from those applicable
to investors. Investors should not rely on the representations, warranties or covenants as characterizations of the actual
state of facts or circumstances.
Item
3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
The
information set forth in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K regarding the Issued Shares and the Share Earnout
Amount is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02.
At
the Closing, the Company will issue directly to the Seller Securityholders a number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal,
in the aggregate, to thirty percent (30%) of the total issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock as of the Closing,
after giving effect to such issuance. In addition, upon achievement of the applicable earnout milestones and subject to the terms and
conditions of the Contribution Agreement, the Seller Securityholders may become entitled to receive additional shares of the Company’s
common stock equal, in the aggregate, to up to ten percent (10%) of the total issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common
stock as of the Closing, after giving effect to the applicable issuance.
The
Company expects that the issuance of the Issued Shares and any Share Earnout Amount will be exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2)
of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and/or Rule 506(b) of Regulation D thereunder. The securities issued pursuant to the Contribution
Agreement will not be registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold absent registration or an applicable exemption
from registration requirements.

integration or exploitation of the Purchased Assets, including:
(A)
all direct costs and expenses of the Purchased Assets;

practices for similarly situated businesses or operations;
(D)

and expenses, in each case to the extent incurred in connection with, arising from, relating to, or reasonably supporting the Purchased
Assets, their operation or their exploitation;

13
(F)
any other costs, expenses, charges, liabilities, reserves or accruals that are properly recognized under GAAP and reasonably attributable
to the Purchased Assets or the conduct of the business relating thereto.
Notwithstanding
the foregoing, Earnout Net Income shall not be reduced by any corporate, Parent-level or public-company costs or expenses that are not
directly attributable to the Purchased Assets, including any allocation of corporate overhead, general and administrative expenses, rent,
utilities (including electricity), SEC registration, reporting or filing fees, stock exchange or listing fees, directors’ and officers’
insurance premiums allocable to Parent-level activities, audit fees relating to Parent-level or consolidated financial statements, investor-relations
expenses, or general corporate legal fees. For the avoidance of doubt, this proviso shall not prohibit the inclusion in Earnout Net Income

development, support, integration or exploitation of the Purchased Assets; (ii) compensation and benefits of personnel devoted primarily

Affiliates’ rights under this Agreement to integrate, operate, restructure, fund, discontinue, license or otherwise conduct the
business relating to the Purchased Assets in their respective good-faith business judgment, nor shall it create any obligation to operate
the Purchased Assets separately or to maximize any Earnout Amount.
For
purposes of the foregoing, allocations may be determined by Buyer or Parent in good faith using a methodology that Buyer or Parent considers
appropriate in light of the nature of the applicable cost and the relevant operations, including allocations based on revenues, headcount,
time devoted, usage, transaction volume, assets employed or another reasonable metric. Buyer and Parent may revise an allocation methodology
from time to time in good faith to reflect changes in their operations, systems, organization, services, business strategy or the Purchased
Assets. For the avoidance of doubt, cash proceeds from the sale, issuance or other disposition of any utility token, digital asset or
other tokenized right shall be included in Earnout Net Income only to the extent, and in the period, recognized as revenue in accordance
with GAAP. Any deferred revenue shall be recognized in Earnout Net Income only as and when recognized as revenue under GAAP. All refunds,
rebates, chargebacks, revenue-sharing payments, token-holder obligations, performance obligations, contractual liabilities, reserves
and related costs shall be reflected in Earnout Net Income in accordance with GAAP. No revenue shall be included to the extent it is
attributable to an asset, right, service or activity other than the Purchased Assets.
(c)
Adjustments for Tax Purposes. Any payments made pursuant to Section 2.06 shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price
by the parties for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.
14
(d)
Earnout Calculation and Review.
(i)
Within forty-five (45) days after the end of each measurement period applicable to any Earnout Amount (each such period, an “Earnout
Period”), Parent shall deliver to the Seller Securityholder Representative a written statement (the “Earnout Statement”)
setting forth in reasonable detail Parent’s calculation of whether the applicable Earnout Amount has been earned, including the
revenue or net income data, methodology, and assumptions used in such calculation. Unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement,
each Earnout Statement shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP, consistently applied using the accounting principles, policies, categorizations,
definitions, judgments and methodologies used by Parent in its preparation of its financial statements, consistently applied; provided
that the calculation of Earnout Net Income shall be governed exclusively by the definition of Earnout Net Income. The Earnout Statement
shall include reasonable detail supporting the calculation of Earnout Net Income; provided, that neither Parent nor Buyer shall be required
to disclose privileged materials, internal legal advice, information concerning any business other than the Purchased Assets, or information
that Parent or Buyer determines in good faith is competitively sensitive or subject to a confidentiality obligation.
(ii)
The Seller Securityholder Representative shall have thirty (30) days following receipt of each Earnout Statement (the “Review
Period”) to review and, if applicable, object to such Earnout Statement. During the Review Period, Parent shall provide the
Seller Securityholder Representative and its Representatives with reasonable access, during normal business hours and upon reasonable
prior notice, to the books, records, and supporting financial data of Buyer and Parent relating solely to the Purchased Assets, solely
to the extent reasonably necessary to review the specific line items and calculations set forth in the Earnout Statement; provided, however,
that Parent shall not be required to provide access to (a) privileged materials, (b) consolidated company-level projections, budgets
or board materials unrelated to the Purchased Assets, (c) trade secrets or competitively sensitive information unrelated to the review
of the Earnout Statement, or (d) personnel other than finance personnel reasonably involved in the preparation of the Earnout Statement.
Any such review shall be conducted in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with the business or operations of Buyer or Parent.
(iii)
If the Seller Securityholder Representative does not deliver written notice of objection to Parent within the Review Period, the Earnout
Statement shall be deemed accepted by the Seller Securityholders and shall be final, conclusive and binding on the parties.
(iv)
If the Seller Securityholder Representative delivers written notice of objection within the Review Period (an “Earnout Objection
Notice”), specifying in reasonable detail the items or amounts in dispute and the basis for such objection, the parties shall
negotiate in good faith for a period of fifteen (15) days following Parent’s receipt of the Earnout Objection Notice to resolve
such dispute. If the parties are unable to resolve the dispute within such fifteen (15)-day period, either party may submit the disputed
items for determination by a nationally recognized independent accounting firm mutually agreed upon by the parties (the “Independent
Accountant”). The Independent Accountant shall act as an expert (and not as an arbitrator) and shall determine only those items
in dispute that are accounting or mathematical in nature and that were included in the Earnout Objection Notice. The Independent Accountant
shall have no authority to resolve any dispute regarding the interpretation of this Agreement, compliance with any covenant, the operation
of the Purchased Assets, or any other legal issue, all of which shall be resolved exclusively by the courts specified in Section 9.10.
The determination of the Independent Accountant shall be final, conclusive and binding on the parties, absent manifest error. The Independent
Accountant shall base its determination solely on the written submissions of the parties and not on any independent review, and shall
be instructed to apply the definitions, terms and accounting principles expressly set forth in this Agreement. The fees and expenses
of the Independent Accountant shall be borne by the Seller Securityholders, on the one hand, and Buyer and Parent, on the other hand,
in inverse proportion to the extent each such party prevails on the disputed items submitted to the Independent Accountant.
15
(e)
Issuance and Payment Procedures.
(i)
Any Share Earnout Amount determined to be payable pursuant to this Section 2.06 shall be issued to the Seller Securityholders within
ten (10) Business Days following the date on which the applicable Earnout Statement becomes final and binding (whether by deemed acceptance,
agreement of the parties, or determination by the Independent Accountant). Such shares shall be issued in book-entry form, shall be subject
to the same terms, conditions and restrictions as the Issued Shares (including any applicable lock-up, restrictive legends and transfer
restrictions under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and applicable state securities laws), and shall be listed on Nasdaq subject
to official notice of issuance.
(ii)
Any Cash Earnout Amount determined to be payable pursuant to this Section 2.06 shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available
funds to an account designated by the Seller Securityholder Representative on behalf of the applicable Seller Securityholders within
ten (10) Business Days following the date on which the applicable Earnout Statement becomes final and binding.
(f)
Operation of the Purchased Assets During the Earnout Period. During the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the
date on which the final Earnout Amount has been determined (the “Earnout Measurement Period”), Buyer, Parent and their
respective Affiliates shall have sole and absolute discretion with respect to the Purchased Assets and all related operations, including
with respect to integration; personnel; expenditures; investments; pricing; branding; marketing; customer allocation; strategy; contracts;
systems; financing; accounting practices; legal-entity structure; and the modification, discontinuation, sale, transfer, licensing or
other exploitation of the Purchased Assets. Neither Buyer, Parent nor any of their respective Affiliates shall have any obligation to
operate the Purchased Assets separately, maximize any Earnout Amount, maintain past practices, or maintain any particular level of investment
or operations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer and Parent shall not, and shall cause their respective Affiliates not to, act with
the sole and primary purpose of artificially reducing Earnout Net Income through an allocation, charge or transaction that is not recognized
or permitted under the definition of Earnout Net Income. A good-faith exercise of business judgment that reduces Earnout Net Income shall
not, in and of itself, constitute a breach of this Section 2.06(f).
(g)
Satisfaction of Indemnification Obligations by Share Forfeiture. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Seller
and/or the Seller Securityholders may, at their election, satisfy any indemnification obligation under ARTICLE VII by forfeiting Issued
Shares or shares comprising any Share Earnout Amount (if then issued) to Parent for cancellation as described further under Section 7.10
hereof. For purposes of calculating the value of any shares so forfeited, each share shall be valued at the same per-share value at which
such share was originally issued to the applicable Seller Securityholder pursuant to this Agreement (determined as of the applicable
issuance date). Parent shall effect any such cancellation promptly upon receipt of Seller’s or the Seller Securityholder Representative’s
written election and the applicable share transfer documentation.
16
(h)
Assumption of Earnout Obligations on Sale. In the event that, during the Earnout Measurement Period, Parent, Buyer or any of their
respective Affiliates consummates any transaction (whether structured as a merger, consolidation, stock purchase, asset purchase, share
exchange or otherwise) pursuant to which any third party acquires all or substantially all of the Purchased Assets (an “Earnout
Assumption Event”), then as a condition to the consummation of such transaction, Parent and Buyer shall cause the acquirer
or successor entity (the “Successor”) to execute and deliver to the Seller Securityholder Representative, prior to
or concurrently with the closing of such transaction, a written agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Seller
Securityholder Representative, pursuant to which the Successor expressly assumes all of the obligations of Parent and Buyer under this
Section 2.06 (including the obligation to issue or pay any Share Earnout Amount and Cash Earnout Amount and to comply with Section 2.06(f)).
Any failure to obtain such assumption agreement shall not relieve Parent or Buyer of their obligations under this Section 2.06.
Section
2.07 Allocation of Purchase Price. Seller and Buyer agree that the Purchase Price and the Assumed Liabilities (plus other relevant
items) shall be allocated among the Purchased Assets for all purposes (including Tax and financial accounting) as shown on the allocation
schedule (the “Allocation Schedule”). A draft of the Allocation Schedule shall be prepared by Buyer and delivered
to Seller within thirty (30) days following the Closing Date. If Seller notifies Buyer in writing that Seller objects to one or more
items reflected in the Allocation Schedule, Seller and Buyer shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such dispute. Buyer and Seller
shall file all Tax Returns (including amended returns and claims for refund) and information reports in a manner consistent with the
Allocation Schedule. Any adjustments to the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 2.06 herein shall be allocated in a manner consistent
with the Allocation Schedule.
Section
2.08 Withholding Tax. Buyer and/or Parent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts or consideration otherwise payable,
issuable or deliverable pursuant to this Agreement all Taxes that Buyer and/or Parent may be required to deduct and withhold under any
provision of Tax Law. All such withheld amounts shall be treated as delivered to Seller and/or the applicable Seller Securityholder,
as applicable, hereunder. Buyer and Parent may require from each Seller Securityholder any duly completed IRS Form W-9, applicable IRS
Form W-8, or other tax form reasonably requested in connection with any payment or issuance under this Agreement.
Section
2.09 Third Party Consents. To the extent that Seller’s rights under any Contract or Permit constituting a Purchased Asset,
or any other Purchased Asset, may not be assigned or sublicensed to Buyer without the consent of another Person which has not been obtained,
this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign the same if an attempted assignment would constitute a breach thereof or be
unlawful, and Seller, at its expense, shall use its best efforts to obtain any such required consent(s) as promptly as possible. If any
such consent shall not be obtained or if any attempted assignment or sublicense would be ineffective or would impair Buyer’s rights
under the Purchased Asset in question so that Buyer would not in effect acquire the benefit of all such rights, Seller shall act after
the Closing as Buyer’s agent and shall obtain for Buyer the benefits thereunder and shall cooperate, to the maximum extent permitted
by Law, with Buyer in any other reasonable arrangement designed to provide such benefits to Buyer.

(ii) under which Seller is a licensee or otherwise granted any right or interest relating to the Intellectual Property of any Person;
and (iii) which otherwise relate to the Seller’s ownership or use of any Intellectual Property. Seller has provided Buyer with
true and complete copies (or in the case of any oral agreements, a complete and correct written description) of all such Intellectual
Property Agreements, including all modifications, amendments and supplements thereto and waivers thereunder. Each Intellectual Property
Agreement is valid and binding on Seller in accordance with its terms and is in full force and effect. Neither Seller nor any other party
thereto is, or is alleged to be, in breach of or default under, or has provided or received any notice of breach of, default under, or
intention to terminate (including by non-renewal), any Intellectual Property Agreement. Except as identified in Section 4.07(b) of the
Disclosure Schedules, neither Seller nor the Seller Securityholders are a party to any contract with a vendor, customer, or any other
Person concerning any right or restriction on any of the Intellectual Property Assets.
(c)
Seller is the sole and exclusive legal and beneficial (and with respect to the Intellectual Property Registrations, record) owner of
all right, title and interest in and to the Intellectual Property Assets. Seller has entered into binding, valid and enforceable written
Contracts with each Person who at any time conceived, authored, created, developed or materially contributed to any Intellectual Property
Asset during the course of employment, engagement, or other activity for or with Seller whereby such current or former employee, independent
contractor, founder, officer, director, consultant, agency, development studio, outsourcing provider, content creator, designer, artist,
marketing provider and other Person (i) acknowledges Seller’s exclusive ownership of all Intellectual Property Assets invented,
created or developed by such employee or independent contractor within the scope of his or her employment or engagement with Seller;
(ii) grants to Seller a present, irrevocable assignment of any ownership interest such employee or independent contractor may have in
or to such Intellectual Property, to the extent such Intellectual Property does not constitute a “work made for hire” under
applicable Law; and (iii) irrevocably waives any right or interest, including any moral rights, regarding such Intellectual Property,
to the extent permitted by applicable Law. Seller has provided Buyer with true and complete copies of all such Contracts. All assignments
and other instruments necessary to establish, record, and perfect Seller’s ownership interest in the Intellectual Property Registrations
have been validly executed, delivered, and filed with the relevant Governmental Authorities and authorized registrars. To the extent
any right was not effectively assigned, by the deliverables and covenants herein, Seller and the Seller Securityholders have assigned
and hereby irrevocably assign such right to Buyer at Closing. To the extent any such right is not assignable under applicable Law, by
the deliverables and covenants herein, Seller and the Seller Securityholders have granted and hereby grant Buyer an irrevocable, perpetual,
worldwide, exclusive, fully-paid, royalty-free, transferable and sublicensable license to exercise and exploit such right. To the extent
any moral rights cannot be waived, Seller and the Seller Securityholders have obtained irrevocable consents and covenants not to sue
as to all acts and omissions of Buyer and its successors and assigns as to the relevant Intellectual Property Assets. Seller has fully
satisfied all compensation, consideration, royalty, bonus, commission, profit-sharing, equity, token, revenue-sharing and other payment
obligations owed to any current or former employee, independent contractor, founder, officer, director, consultant, agency, development
studio, outsourcing provider, content creator, designer, artist, marketing provider or other Person relating to the conception, creation,
development, ownership, use, exploitation or assignment of any Intellectual Property Asset. No Person has any claim to additional compensation
or consideration, or any right to rescind, terminate, avoid, challenge or otherwise impair any assignment, license, waiver or transfer
relating to any Intellectual Property Asset. Except as set forth in Section 4.07(c) of the Disclosure Schedules, no Person retains any
ownership interest, license right, royalty right, revenue share, participation right, veto right, approval right, consent right, source-code
access right, reversionary right or other claim in or to any Intellectual Property Asset or Purchased Asset.
24
(A)
Neither the execution, delivery, or performance of this Agreement, nor the consummation of the Transactions contemplated hereunder, will
result in the loss or impairment of or payment of any additional amounts with respect to, or require the consent of any other Person
in respect of, the Buyer’s right to own or use any Intellectual Property Assets or Licensed Intellectual Property. Immediately
following the Closing, all Intellectual Property Assets will be owned or available for use by Buyer on identical terms as they were owned

will otherwise cooperate with Buyer.
Section

Section
6.09 Proxy Statement; Parent Stockholders Meeting.
(a)
Preparation and Filing. As promptly as reasonably practicable following the date of this Agreement (and in any event within 20
Business Days), Parent shall prepare and file with the SEC a proxy statement to be sent to the stockholders of Parent relating to the
Parent Stockholders Meeting (as it may be amended or supplemented, the “Proxy Statement”), in each case in compliance
with the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of Nasdaq. Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts
to have the Proxy Statement cleared by the SEC as promptly as practicable after such filing. Seller shall furnish all information concerning
Seller and the Purchased Assets, and shall provide such other reasonable assistance, as may be reasonably requested by Parent in connection
with the preparation, filing, and distribution of the Proxy Statement.
(b)
SEC Comments. Parent shall promptly notify Seller upon the receipt of any comments from the SEC or its staff or any request from
the SEC or its staff for amendments or supplements to the Proxy Statement, and shall promptly provide Seller with copies of all correspondence
between Parent and its Representatives, on the one hand, and the SEC, on the other hand. Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts
to respond as promptly as reasonably practicable to any such comments and to cause the definitive Proxy Statement to be filed with the
SEC and mailed to Parent’s stockholders as promptly as reasonably practicable after clearance by the SEC. Parent shall provide
Seller with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the Proxy Statement and any amendment or supplement thereto prior to filing
with the SEC or mailing to Parent’s stockholders, and shall consider in good faith any comments reasonably proposed by Seller;
provided, that all such documents, and the ultimate content thereof, and all decisions relating to the Proxy Statement and the Parent
Stockholders Meeting, shall be within Parent’s sole discretion, subject to Parent’s obligations under applicable Law.
(c)
Accuracy of Information. Parent shall ensure that the Proxy Statement, at the time it (or any amendment or supplement thereto)
is filed with the SEC and at the time it is mailed to Parent’s stockholders, does not contain any untrue statement of a material
fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light
of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading, except that Parent makes no representation or warranty with respect to
information contained in or omitted from the Proxy Statement in reliance upon and in conformity with information supplied by or on behalf
of Seller specifically for inclusion or incorporation by reference therein. If, at any time prior to the Parent Stockholders Meeting,
any event or circumstance should be discovered by Parent or Seller that should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Proxy
Statement, the party discovering such event or circumstance shall promptly notify the other party, and Parent shall promptly file such
amendment or supplement with the SEC and, to the extent required by applicable Law, disseminate the same to Parent’s stockholders.
(d)
Calling and Holding the Meeting. Parent shall, in accordance with applicable Law and its organizational documents, (i) establish
a record date for, duly call, give notice of, convene, and hold a meeting of its stockholders (the “Parent Stockholders Meeting”)
as promptly as reasonably practicable following clearance of the Proxy Statement by the SEC (and in any event within 20 Business Days
thereafter) for the purpose of obtaining the Parent Stockholder Approval, and (ii) solicit proxies from its stockholders in favor of
the issuance of the Issued Shares. Parent shall not adjourn or postpone the Parent Stockholders Meeting without Seller’s prior
written consent, except (A) to the extent required by applicable Law or a request from the SEC, (B) if, as of the time the Parent Stockholders
Meeting is originally scheduled, there are insufficient shares represented to constitute a quorum, or (C) to allow reasonable additional
time to solicit additional proxies necessary to obtain the Parent Stockholder Approval.
35
(e)
Board Recommendation. The board of directors of Parent shall recommend that Parent’s stockholders vote in favor of the issuance
of the Issued Shares (the “Parent Board Recommendation”), shall include the Parent Board Recommendation in the Proxy
Statement, and shall not, in the absence of facts or circumstances resulting in or likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect, withdraw,
modify, or qualify the Parent Board Recommendation in a manner adverse to Seller.
(f)
Nasdaq Compliance. Parent shall take all actions necessary to comply with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(a) and any other applicable
Nasdaq rule in connection with the Transactions contemplated hereby, including the timing, form, and content of stockholder solicitation
materials and the application for listing of the shares of Parent Common Stock comprising the Issued Shares.
Section
6.10 Removal of Legends.
(a)
In connection with any sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition of the Issued Shares by any applicable Seller Securityholder pursuant
to Rule 144 or pursuant to any other exemption under the Securities Act, upon request by the applicable Seller Securityholder or the
Seller Securityholder Representative by notice to Parent, Parent shall, within five (5) Business Days of such request, direct the Transfer
Agent to remove any restrictive legends related to the book entry account holding such shares and make a new, unlegended entry for such
book entry shares sold or disposed of without restrictive legends and cause its counsel, if necessary, to deliver to the Transfer Agent
one or more opinions to the effect that the removal of such legends in such circumstances may be effected under the Securities Act. The
applicable Seller Securityholder or the Seller Securityholder Representative shall provide Parent with customary representations in connection
therewith. Parent shall be responsible for the fees of its Transfer Agent, legal counsel and all other costs associated with such legend
removal. Parent shall promptly take all necessary steps with the Transfer Agent and its legal counsel to remove legends and effect the
transfer process under this Section 6.10 within five (5) Business Days after notice from Seller, including by providing any required
documentation, instructions, or opinions without undue delay. For the avoidance of doubt, each Seller Securityholder shall be entitled
directly to the benefits of this Section 6.10 with respect to the Issued Shares or any Share Earnout Amount issued to such Seller Securityholder,
and Parent may rely on any instruction delivered by the Seller Securityholder Representative on behalf of such Seller Securityholder.
(b)
Upon the earliest of such time as the Issued Shares (i) have been registered under the Securities Act pursuant to an effective registration
statement; (ii) have been sold pursuant to Rule 144, or (iii) are eligible for resale by the then-holder thereof pursuant to SEC Rule
144, without the requirement for the Parent to be in compliance with the current public information requirement under Rule 144, Parent
shall, within two (2) Business Days following any request therefor from Seller, (A) deliver to the Transfer Agent irrevocable instructions
that the Transfer Agent shall make a new, unlegended entry for such book entry shares, and (B) if necessary, cause its counsel to deliver
to the Transfer Agent one or more opinions to the effect that the removal of such legends in such circumstances may be effected under
the Securities Act. Parent shall not unreasonably delay, condition, or withhold the delivery of any such opinion. Seller shall provide
Parent with customary representations in connection therewith. Parent shall be responsible for all fees and expenses of its Transfer
Agent, legal counsel, and any other costs associated with such legend removal.
36
(c)
Parent shall, and shall cause its legal counsel to, cooperate in good faith with each Seller Securityholder, Seller Securityholder Representative,
and the Transfer Agent in connection with any legend removal request under this Agreement. Such counsel shall deliver any required opinions
promptly and shall not impose conditions or requirements beyond what is strictly necessary to comply with applicable securities laws
and customary legal practice.
Section
6.11 No Trading. Each of Seller, the Seller Securityholders and Parent acknowledges and agrees that it is aware, and that its Affiliates
are aware (and each of their respective Representatives is aware or, upon receipt of any material nonpublic information of Parent, will
be advised) of the restrictions imposed by U.S. federal securities laws and the rules and regulations of the SEC and Nasdaq promulgated
thereunder or otherwise (the “Federal Securities Laws”) and other applicable foreign and domestic Laws on a Person
possessing material nonpublic information about a publicly traded company. Seller hereby agrees that, while it is in possession of such
material nonpublic information, it shall not purchase or sell any securities of Parent, communicate such information to any third party,
take any other action with respect to Parent in violation of such Laws, or cause or encourage any third party to do any of the foregoing.
Each Seller Securityholder hereby also agrees that, while such Seller Securityholder is in possession of such material nonpublic information,
such Seller Securityholder shall not purchase or sell any securities of Parent, communicate such information to any third party, take
any other action with respect to Parent in violation of such Laws, or cause or encourage any third party to do any of the foregoing.
Section
6.12 Notification of Certain Matters. During the Interim Period, each party shall give prompt notice to the other parties if such
party or its Affiliates: (a) fails to comply with or satisfy any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by
it or its Affiliates hereunder in any material respect; (b) receives any notice or other communication in writing from any third party
(including any Governmental Authority) alleging (i) that the Consent of such third party is or may be required in connection with the
Transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (ii) any non-compliance with any Law by such party or its Affiliates; (c) receives any
notice or other communication from any Governmental Authority in connection with the Transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (d)
discovers any fact or circumstance that, or becomes aware of the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event the occurrence or non-occurrence
of which, would reasonably be expected to cause or result in any of the conditions to the Closing set forth in ARTICLE III not being
satisfied or the satisfaction of those conditions being materially delayed; or (e) becomes aware of the commencement or threat, in writing,
of any Proceeding against such party or any of its Affiliates, or any of their respective properties or assets, or, to the Knowledge
of such party, any officer, director, partner, member or manager, in his, her or its capacity as such, of such party or of its Affiliates
with respect to the consummation of the Transactions contemplated by this Agreement. No such notice shall constitute an acknowledgement
or admission by the party providing the notice regarding whether or not any of the conditions to the Closing have been satisfied or in
determining whether or not any of the representations, warranties or covenants contained in this Agreement have been breached.
Section
6.13 Post-Closing Board of Directors.
(a)
Effective as of the Closing, Parent shall take all necessary action to appoint two (2) individuals to the board of directors of Parent
(the “Parent Board”), each of whom shall be separately nominated in writing by one of the two Seller Securityholders
identified as a “Designating Holder” in a written notice delivered to Parent prior to the Closing (each, a “Seller
Designee”). Parent’s consent
to each Seller Designee shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, that Parent may reasonably withhold consent
if a Seller Designee fails to satisfy applicable eligibility, independence, qualification, background, disclosure, stock exchange or
SEC requirements applicable to directors of Parent, as reasonably determined by the Parent Board or the applicable committee thereof
after consultation with counsel.
37
(b)
If a Seller Designee nominated by a Designating Holder is unable or unwilling to serve, or is removed, resigns or otherwise ceases to
serve as a director, that Designating Holder may separately nominate a replacement individual, subject to the same consent standard set
forth in Section 6.13(a). Parent shall take all necessary action to appoint such replacement designee to the Parent Board promptly following
such nomination.
(c)
Parent shall include each Seller Designee then serving on the Parent Board in the slate of nominees recommended by the Parent Board for
election at each annual meeting of Parent’s stockholders for so long as the applicable Designating Holder, holds
at least five percent (5%) of the outstanding shares of Parent’s Common Stock; provided, that Parent shall have no obligation to
include a Seller Designee in such slate if doing so would violate applicable Law, the rules or regulations of Nasdaq, or the fiduciary
duties of the directors of Parent as determined in good faith after consultation with outside counsel.
(d)
Each Seller designee serving on the Parent Board shall be entitled to the same compensation, indemnification, exculpation, directors’
and officers’ insurance coverage, and expense reimbursement as all other non-employee directors of Parent.
(e)
Nothing in this Section 6.13 shall require Parent to take any action that would violate applicable Law, the rules and regulations of
Nasdaq, or the fiduciary duties of the directors of Parent as determined in good faith after consultation with outside counsel; provided,
that Parent shall promptly notify the Seller Securityholder Representative in writing of any such determination and the basis therefor,
and the Seller Securityholder Representative, acting on behalf of the Seller Securityholders, shall be entitled to designate a replacement
individual in accordance with Section 6.13(b).
Section
6.14 Piggyback Registration Rights.
(a)
First Filing Piggyback Right. If, at any time on or after the date that is six (6) months following the Closing Date, Parent proposes
to file with the SEC a Registration Statement covering the offer and sale of shares of Parent’s Common Stock (or securities convertible
into or exchangeable for Parent’s Common Stock), whether for its own account or the account of any other stockholder (other than
a Registration Statement (i) on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (or any successor forms), (ii) relating to any employee benefit or equity incentive
plan, dividend reinvestment plan or similar plan, (iii) filed in connection with any business combination, acquisition or exchange offer,
or (iv) filed solely to register securities issuable upon conversion or exercise of outstanding convertible or exercisable securities),
then Parent shall give written notice of such proposed filing (the “Piggyback Notice”) to the Seller Securityholder
Representative not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the anticipated filing date. The Piggyback Notice shall describe the proposed
Registration Statement, the intended method of distribution (including whether the offering is to be underwritten and, if so, the identity
of the managing underwriter), and offer each Seller Securityholder the opportunity to include in such Registration Statement all or any
portion of the Registrable Securities held by such Seller Securityholder (each such registration, a “Piggyback Registration”).
For the avoidance of doubt, Parent shall have no obligation under this Section 6.14 with respect to any Registration Statement filed
prior to the date that is six (6) months following the Closing Date, and this Section 6.14 shall apply to each Registration Statement
filed on or after such date on the terms hereof.
(b)
Request for Inclusion. Each Seller Securityholder desiring to participate shall notify the Seller Securityholder Representative
(with a copy to Parent) within ten (10) days after delivery of the Piggyback Notice of the number of Registrable Securities such Seller
Securityholder wishes to include. Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to include in such Registration Statement all Registrable
Securities so requested to be included, subject only to Section 6.14(c).
38
(c)
Underwriter Cutback. Notwithstanding Section 6.14(a) or (b), if the Piggyback Registration involves an underwritten offering and
the managing underwriter thereof advises Parent in writing that, in its good faith opinion, the number of securities proposed to be included
in such offering (including the Registrable Securities requested to be included by the Seller Securityholders) exceeds the number of
securities that can be sold in such offering without materially and adversely affecting the marketability, proposed offering price, timing
or method of distribution of the offering, then the number of securities to be included in such offering shall be reduced to the number
that, in the good faith opinion of the managing underwriter, can be sold without such material and adverse effect, and the securities
so included shall be allocated as follows: (i) if the offering is a primary offering for Parent’s account, first, to the securities
that Parent proposes to sell, second, to the Registrable Securities requested to be included by the Seller Securityholders (allocated
pro rata among the Seller Securityholders based on the number of Registrable Securities each requested to be included), and third, to
any other securities requested to be included by other holders exercising piggyback or similar registration rights (allocated pro rata
among such other holders based on the number of securities each requested to be included); and (ii) if the offering is a secondary offering
for the account of one or more other selling stockholders exercising demand or similar registration rights, first, to the securities
that such demanding holders propose to sell (up to the amount such demanding holders are contractually entitled to include), and second,
subject to any contractual priority in effect as of the Closing Date and disclosed to Seller in writing prior to Closing, among the Registrable
Securities requested to be included by the Seller Securityholders and any other securities requested to be included by other holders
exercising piggyback or similar registration rights, allocated pro rata based on the number of securities each such holder requested
to be included. For the avoidance of doubt, all determinations as to the number and identity of securities that may be sold in the offering
without materially and adversely affecting the marketability, proposed offering price, timing or method of distribution of the offering
shall be made by the managing underwriter in its good faith judgment, and Parent, Seller and the Seller Securityholders shall be bound
by any such determination.
(d)
Expenses. All registration expenses (including SEC and FINRA registration and filing fees, printing expenses, fees and disbursements
of counsel and independent accountants for Parent, and fees and expenses of listing the Registrable Securities on Nasdaq) incurred in
connection with any Piggyback Registration shall be borne by Parent, other than any underwriting discounts, selling commissions and transfer
taxes attributable to the sale of Registrable Securities and the fees and expenses of separate counsel to the Seller Securityholders
(which shall be borne by the Seller Securityholders).
Section
6.15 Minimum Guarantees.
(a)
For purposes of this Section 6.15, “Minimum Guarantee Payments” or “MGs” means the minimum guarantee
payment obligations due forty (40) days after September 3, 2026 under (i) that certain MEDIA HOUSE PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT, dated September
3, 2026, by and between Seller and 4CAST Investment Group Limited and (ii) that certain MEDIA HOUSE PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT, dated September
3, 2026, by and between Seller and Two Robbies Media LLC (collectively, the “Specified Media House Agreements”). Except
as expressly provided in this Section 6.15, the Minimum Guarantee Payments are Excluded Liabilities and shall not constitute Assumed
Liabilities.
39
(b)
Seller shall be responsible for timely payment of each Minimum Guarantee Payment when due. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent shall
fund an applicable Minimum Guarantee Payment when due as a recoverable advance (a “Conditional MG Advance”) only if,
before such payment is due, Seller delivers to Parent reasonable evidence that Seller has entered into a binding written revenue contract
under the applicable Specified Media House Agreement providing for gross revenue to Seller in an aggregate amount exceeding that Minimum
Guarantee Payment (a “Qualifying Revenue Contract”). The existence and amount of a Qualifying Revenue Contract shall
be determined by the counterparty’s binding contractual obligation to pay and shall not depend on whether the applicable revenue
is then due or has been received in cash; provided that the revenue under that Qualifying Revenue Contract is properly recognized and
accounted for after the Closing as revenue of Buyer, Parent or their respective Affiliates in accordance with GAAP. Parent may pay the
Conditional MG Advance directly to the relevant counterparty under the applicable Specified Media House Agreement, or to Seller for prompt
payment to that counterparty. A Conditional MG Advance shall not constitute an assumption by Buyer, Parent or any of their respective
Affiliates of the applicable Minimum Guarantee Payment or any other Liability under a Specified Media House Agreement.
(c)
To the extent Seller receives any cash payment before the Closing under any third-party agreement relating to either Media House (each,
a “Pre-Closing Media House Collection”), Seller shall promptly notify Parent in writing and provide reasonable supporting
documentation. Each Pre-Closing Media House Collection, net only of amounts actually paid or payable to third parties under the applicable
agreement, and of documented refunds, rebates, credits, chargebacks and collection costs, shall be applied dollar-for-dollar first to
reduce the unpaid Minimum Guarantee Payments under the applicable Specified Media House Agreement and, if Seller has already paid the
applicable Minimum Guarantee Payment, to reduce the amount eligible for any Conditional MG Advance or reimbursement. To the extent any
Pre-Closing Media House Collection exceeds the applicable unpaid Minimum Guarantee Payments, Seller shall hold such excess for the benefit
of Buyer and shall remit it to Buyer in immediately available funds at the Closing. If the Closing does not occur, Seller shall retain
any Pre-Closing Media House Collection, subject to its obligations under Section 6.15(e).
(d)
Each Conditional MG Advance shall be reimbursed first, dollar-for-dollar, from the first Net Contract Revenue actually received and retained
after the Closing from the applicable Qualifying Revenue Contract. “Net Contract Revenue” means cash revenue actually
received and retained by Buyer, Parent or their respective Affiliates under the applicable Qualifying Revenue Contract, net of all taxes,
refunds, rebates, credits, chargebacks, returns, bad debt, collection costs, third-party revenue shares, commissions, platform fees and
all other costs, expenses and amounts payable or incurred in connection with that Qualifying Revenue Contract or the revenue thereunder.
Parent may retain all such Net Contract Revenue until the Conditional MG Advance is fully reimbursed.
(e)
A “Self-Funded MG Payment” means any Minimum Guarantee Payment paid by Seller for which Parent did not make a Conditional
MG Advance. Following the Closing, Parent shall reimburse Seller for each Self-Funded MG Payment, dollar-for-dollar, solely from the
first cash revenue actually received and retained by Buyer, Parent or their respective Affiliates after the Closing under or in connection
with the applicable Specified Media House Agreement, net of all taxes, refunds, rebates, credits, chargebacks, returns, bad debt, collection
costs, third-party revenue shares, commissions, platform fees and all other costs, expenses and amounts payable or incurred in connection
with such Specified Media House Agreement or the revenue thereunder. Parent may retain such net revenue and apply it to reimburse Seller
until the applicable Self-Funded MG Payment has been fully reimbursed. Parent shall make each such reimbursement, without interest, promptly
upon Parent’s receipt of (i) reasonable documentation evidencing Seller’s payment of the applicable Minimum Guarantee Payment
and (ii) the applicable cash revenue. For the avoidance of doubt, a Self-Funded MG Payment shall not constitute a Conditional MG Advance
or an MG Recovery Amount and shall not be subject to recovery or setoff under Section 6.15(f), and Seller’s reimbursement right
under this Section 6.15(e) shall not be subject to setoff or reduction under Section 6.15(f).
(f) To
the extent a Conditional MG Advance has not been reimbursed from Net Contract Revenue, including because the applicable Qualifying Revenue
Contract is terminated, rescinded, amended, cancelled, breached, uncollectible, subject to a refund, credit, chargeback or other reduction,
or otherwise does not produce sufficient Net Contract Revenue, the unreimbursed amount shall be immediately due and owing by Seller to
Parent (the “MG Recovery Amount”). Parent shall have the right to recover the MG Recovery Amount, first, by setoff
against any Cash Earnout Amount otherwise payable to the Seller Securityholders under Section 2.06 and, thereafter, by any other remedy
available under this Agreement, at law or in equity
40
(g)
If this Agreement is terminated for any reason or the Closing does not occur, Seller shall remain solely liable for all Minimum Guarantee
Payments and shall repay to Parent, within five (5) Business Days after Parent’s written demand, the full amount of each Conditional
MG Advance. This Section 6.15(g) shall survive termination of this Agreement.
(h)
Following the Closing, Buyer, Parent and their respective Affiliates shall have sole discretion with respect to the operation, performance,
amendment, renewal, termination, enforcement, collection and exploitation of the Specified Media House Agreements, and none of them shall
have any obligation to operate, maintain, enforce, collect under, renew or otherwise exploit either Specified Media House Agreement or
to maximize any Net Contract Revenue.

Securityholders shall indemnify and defend each of Buyer, Parent, and their Affiliates and their respective Representatives (collectively,
the “Buyer Indemnitees”) against, and shall hold each of them harmless from and against, and shall pay and reimburse
each of them for, any and all Losses incurred or sustained by, or imposed upon, the Buyer Indemnitees based upon, arising out of, with

for representations and warranties that expressly relate to a specified date, the inaccuracy in or breach of which will be determined
with reference to such specified date);
(b)

pursuant to this Agreement;
41
(c)
any Excluded Asset or any Excluded Liability; or

any Third-Party Claim based upon, resulting from or arising out of the business, operations, properties, assets or obligations of Seller,
Seller Securityholders or any of their respective Affiliates (other than the Purchased Assets or Assumed Liabilities) conducted, existing
or arising on or prior to the Closing Date.
Section
7.03 Indemnification By Buyer. Subject to the other terms and conditions of this ARTICLE VII, from and after Closing, Buyer shall
indemnify and defend each of Seller and its Affiliates and their respective Representatives (collectively, the “Seller Indemnitees”)
against, and shall hold each of them harmless from and against, and shall pay and reimburse each of them for, any and all Losses incurred
or sustained by, or imposed upon, the Seller Indemnitees based upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason of:
(a)
any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations or warranties of Buyer contained in this Agreement or in any certificate or
instrument delivered by or on behalf of Buyer pursuant to this Agreement, as of the date such representation or warranty was made or
as if such representation or warranty was made on and as of the Closing Date (except for representations and warranties that expressly
relate to a specified date, the inaccuracy in or breach of which will be determined with reference to such specified date);
(b)
any breach or non-fulfillment of any covenant, agreement or obligation to be performed by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement; or

Section
7.04 Certain Limitations. The indemnification provided for in Section 7.02 and Section 7.03 shall be subject to the following limitations:
(a)
Seller shall not be liable to the Buyer Indemnitees for indemnification under Section 7.02(a) until the aggregate amount of all Losses
in respect of indemnification under Section 7.02(a) exceeds $20,000 (the “Basket”), in which event Seller shall be
required to pay or be liable for all such Losses from the first dollar. The aggregate amount of all Losses for which Seller shall be
liable pursuant to Section 7.02(a) shall not exceed $500,000 (the “Cap”).
(b)
Buyer shall not be liable to the Seller Indemnitees for indemnification under Section 7.03(a) until the aggregate amount of all Losses
in respect of indemnification under Section 7.03(a) exceeds the Basket, in which event Buyer shall be required to pay or be liable for
all such Losses from the first dollar. The aggregate amount of all Losses for which Buyer shall be liable pursuant to Section 7.03(a)
shall not exceed the Cap.
(c)
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Basket and the Cap shall not apply to Losses based upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason
of any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty in Section 4.01 (Organization and Qualification of Seller), Section
4.02 (Authority of Seller and the Seller Securityholders), Section 4.03 (No Conflicts; Consents), the Intellectual Property Fundamental
Representations, Section 4.11 (Related Party Transactions) and Section 4.12 (Brokers) (collectively, the “Seller Fundamental
Representations”); provided, however, that the aggregate liability of Seller and the Seller Securityholders for indemnification
under Section 7.02(a) in respect of any inaccuracy in or breach of any Seller Fundamental Representation shall be limited to claims for
which written notice has been delivered to the Indemnifying Party on or prior to the date that is three (3) years following the Closing
Date, after which time such Seller Fundamental Representations shall expire for purposes of indemnification hereunder.
42
(d)
For purposes of this ARTICLE VII (including for purposes of determining the existence of any inaccuracy in, or breach of, any representation
or warranty and for calculating the amount of any Loss with respect thereto), any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty
shall be determined without regard to any materiality or other similar qualification contained in or otherwise applicable to such representation
or warranty.
Section
7.05 Indemnification Procedures. The party making a claim under this ARTICLE VII is referred to as the “Indemnified Party”,
and the party against whom such claims are asserted under this ARTICLE VII is referred to as the “Indemnifying Party”.
(a)
Third-Party Claims. If any Indemnified Party receives notice of the assertion or commencement of any Proceeding made or brought
by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of a party to this Agreement or a Representative of the foregoing
(a “Third-Party Claim”) against such Indemnified Party with respect to which the Indemnifying Party is obligated to
provide indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice
thereof, but in any event not later than 30 calendar days after receipt of such notice of such Third-Party Claim. The failure to give
such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to
the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall
describe the Third-Party Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate
the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying
Party shall have the right to participate in, or by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party, to assume the defense of any Third-Party
Claim at the Indemnifying Party’s expense and by the Indemnifying Party’s own counsel, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate
in good faith in such defense; provided, that if the Indemnifying Party is Seller, such Indemnifying Party shall not have the
right to defend or direct the defense of any such Third-Party Claim that (x) is asserted directly by or on behalf of a Person that is
a supplier or customer of the Seller, or (y) seeks an injunction or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party. In the event
that the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third-Party Claim, subject to Section 7.05(b), it shall have the right to take
such action as it deems necessary to avoid, dispute, defend, appeal or make counterclaims pertaining to any such Third-Party Claim in
the name and on behalf of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense of any Third-Party
Claim with counsel selected by it subject to the Indemnifying Party’s right to control the defense thereof. The fees and disbursements
of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party, provided, that if in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the
Indemnified Party, (A) there are legal defenses available to an Indemnified Party that are different from or additional to those available
to the Indemnifying Party; or (B) there exists a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party that cannot
be waived, the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Party in each jurisdiction
for which the Indemnified Party determines counsel is required. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to compromise or defend such Third-Party
Claim, fails to promptly notify the Indemnified Party in writing of its election to defend as provided in this Agreement, or fails to
diligently prosecute the defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may, subject to Section 7.05(b), pay, compromise, defend
such Third-Party Claim and seek indemnification for any and all Losses based upon, arising from or relating to such Third-Party Claim.
Seller and Buyer shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any Third-Party Claim,
including making available (subject to the provisions of Section 6.01) records relating to such Third-Party Claim and furnishing, without
expense (other than reimbursement of actual out-of-pocket expenses) to the defending party, management employees of the non-defending
party as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of such Third-Party Claim.
43
(b)
Settlement of Third-Party Claims. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall not enter
into settlement of any Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, except as provided in this Section
7.05(b). If a firm offer is made to settle a Third-Party Claim without leading to Liability or the creation of a financial or other obligation
on the part of the Indemnified Party and provides, in customary form, for the unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all
Liabilities and obligations in connection with such Third-Party Claim and the Indemnifying Party desires to accept and agree to such
offer, the Indemnifying Party shall give written notice to that effect to the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent
to such firm offer within ten days after its receipt of such notice, the Indemnified Party may continue to contest or defend such Third-Party
Claim and in such event, the maximum liability of the Indemnifying Party as to such Third-Party Claim shall not exceed the amount of
such settlement offer. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer and also fails to assume defense of such Third-Party
Claim, the Indemnifying Party may settle the Third-Party Claim upon the terms set forth in such firm offer to settle such Third-Party
Claim. If the Indemnified Party has assumed the defense pursuant to Section 7.05(a), it shall not agree to any settlement without the
written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).
(c)
Direct Claims. Any Proceeding by an Indemnified Party on account of a Loss which does not result from a Third-Party Claim (a “Direct
Claim”) shall be asserted by the Indemnified Party giving the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof,
but in any event not later than 30 days after the Indemnified Party becomes aware of such Direct Claim. The failure to give such prompt
written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that
the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the
Direct Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount,
if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have
30 days after its receipt of such notice to respond in writing to such Direct Claim. The Indemnified Party shall allow the Indemnifying
Party and its professional advisors to investigate the matter or circumstance alleged to give rise to the Direct Claim, and whether and
to what extent any amount is payable in respect of the Direct Claim and the Indemnified Party shall assist the Indemnifying Party’s
investigation by giving such information and assistance (including access to the Indemnified Party’s premises and personnel and
the right to examine and copy any accounts, documents or records) as the Indemnifying Party or any of its professional advisors may reasonably
request. If the Indemnifying Party does not so respond within such 30-day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have rejected
such claim, in which case the Indemnified Party shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to the Indemnified Party on
the terms and subject to the provisions of this Agreement.
Section
7.06 Payments. Once a Loss is agreed to by the Indemnifying Party or finally adjudicated to be payable pursuant to this ARTICLE VII,
the Indemnifying Party shall satisfy its obligations within ten (10) Business Days of such agreement or final, non-appealable adjudication
by wire transfer of immediately available funds. The parties hereto agree that should an Indemnifying Party not make full payment of
any such obligations within such ten (10) Business Day period, any amount payable shall accrue interest from and including the date of
agreement of the Indemnifying Party or final, non-appealable adjudication to and including the date such payment has been made at a rate
per annum equal to the prime rate of interest as identified in The Wall Street Journal on the date of agreement of the Indemnifying Party
or final, non-appealable adjudication (or the next preceding date of publication if The Wall Street Journal is not published on such
date) plus three percent. Such interest shall be calculated daily on the basis of a 365-day year and the actual number of days elapsed,
without compounding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller or the Seller Securityholder Representative may elect to satisfy all or any
portion of an indemnification obligation under this ARTICLE VII by forfeiting to Parent for cancellation a number of Issued Shares or
shares comprising any Share Earnout Amount (if then issued). Each share so forfeited shall be valued at the same per-share value at which
such share was originally issued to the applicable Seller Securityholder pursuant to this Agreement. If the value of the forfeited shares,
valued at their original issuance price, exceeds the applicable indemnification obligation, Parent shall promptly return to the applicable
Seller Securityholder the excess shares in accordance with the written direction of the Seller Securityholder Representative.
44
Section
7.07 Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments. All indemnification payments made under this Agreement shall be treated by the parties
as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.
Section
7.08 Effect of Investigation. The representations, warranties and covenants of the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnified Party’s
right to indemnification with respect thereto, shall not be affected or deemed waived by reason of any investigation made by or on behalf
of the Indemnified Party (including by any of its Representatives) or by reason of the fact that the Indemnified Party or any of its
Representatives knew or should have known that any such representation or warranty is, was or might be inaccurate or by reason of the
Indemnified Party’s waiver of any condition set forth in this Agreement, as the case may be.
Section
7.09 Exclusive Remedies. Subject to and except for Section 6.01 and Section 9.11, the parties acknowledge and agree that from and
after Closing their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims (other than claims arising from fraud or willful misconduct
on the part of a party hereto in connection with the Transactions contemplated by this Agreement) for any breach of any representation,
warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, shall be
pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this ARTICLE VII. In furtherance of the foregoing, except with respect to Section
6.01 and Section 9.11, each party hereby waives, from and after Closing, to the fullest extent permitted under Law, any and all rights,
claims and causes of action for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise
relating to the subject matter of this Agreement it may have against the other parties hereto and their Affiliates and each of their
respective Representatives arising under or based upon any Law, except pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this ARTICLE
VII. Nothing in this Section 7.09 shall limit any Person’s right to seek and obtain any equitable relief to which any Person shall
be entitled or to seek any remedy on account of any party’s fraud or willful misconduct.
Section
7.10 Set Off. Buyer and Parent may withhold and set off against any Earnout Amount any amount finally determined (whether by agreement
of the parties, final and non-appealable adjudication or binding determination of the Independent Accountant) to be payable by Seller
or any Seller Securityholder pursuant to this ARTICLE VII. Without limiting the foregoing, Buyer and Parent may also withhold and set
off against any Issued Shares not yet issued, any Share Earnout Amount, any Cash Earnout Amount, or any other amount otherwise payable
or issuable to any Seller Securityholder under this Agreement, any amount finally determined to be payable by Seller or any Seller Securityholder,
as applicable, pursuant to this Agreement. Pending final resolution of any disputed claim, Buyer and Parent may retain the disputed amount;
provided, that promptly following such final resolution, Buyer or Parent shall release to the applicable Seller Securityholder any retained
amount in excess of the Losses finally determined to be recoverable.

Section
8.02 Effect of Termination. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8.01, then all provisions of this Agreement shall
thereupon become void and of no further effect without any liability on the part of any Party hereto to any other Party hereto; provided,
that:
(a)
such termination will not relieve any Party from liability for any fraud or willful breach of this Agreement prior to termination; and
(b)
the provisions of this ARTICLE VIII and ARTICLE IX shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”; (b) the word “or”
is not exclusive; (c) the words “herein,” “hereof,” “hereby,” “hereto” and “hereunder”
refer to this Agreement as a whole; and (d) references herein: (i) to Articles, Sections, Disclosure Schedules and Exhibits mean the
Articles and Sections of, and Disclosure Schedules and Exhibits attached to, this Agreement; (ii) to an agreement, instrument or other
document means such agreement, instrument or other document as amended, supplemented and modified from time to time to the extent permitted
by the provisions thereof and (iii) to a statute means such statute as amended from time to time and includes any successor legislation

construction or interpretation against the party drafting an instrument or causing any instrument to be drafted. The Disclosure Schedules
and Exhibits referred to herein shall be construed with, and as an integral part of, this Agreement to the same extent as if they were
set forth verbatim herein.
Section
9.04 Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for reference only and shall not affect the interpretation of this Agreement.
Section
9.05 Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity,
illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Agreement or invalidate or render unenforceable such
term or provision in any other jurisdiction. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or unenforceable,
the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely
as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the Transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated

and agreements, both written and oral, with respect to such subject matter. In the event of any inconsistency between the statements
in the body of this Agreement and those in the Ancillary Documents, the Exhibits and Disclosure Schedules (other than an exception expressly
set forth as such in the Disclosure Schedules), the statements in the body of this Agreement will control.
Section
9.07 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their
respective successors and permitted assigns. Neither party may assign its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent

relieve such Seller Securityholder of any obligation under this Agreement unless Buyer and Parent otherwise agree in writing, and any
permitted transferee receiving such shares shall take subject to the applicable terms of this Agreement to the extent expressly applicable

Agreement shall operate or be construed as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or
privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.
Section

(a)
This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect

HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 8.10(c).
