Item 1.01

Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement

Merger Agreement

On December 18, 2019, Xperi Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Xperi”) and TiVo Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“TiVo”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which Xperi and TiVo have agreed, subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, to effect an all-stock, merger of equals strategic combination of their respective businesses by: (i) forming XRAY-TWOLF HoldCo Corporation, a Delaware corporation jointly owned by Xperi and TiVo (“HoldCo”), (ii) Xperi merging with a newly formed, wholly owned subsidiary of HoldCo, with Xperi surviving such merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of HoldCo (the “Xperi Merger”), (iii) TiVo merging with a newly formed, wholly owned subsidiary of HoldCo, with TiVo surviving such merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of HoldCo (the “TiVo Merger” and, together with the Xperi Merger, the “Mergers”), and (iv) as of the effective time of the Mergers (the “Effective Time”), changing the name of HoldCo to be “Xperi Corporation”.

The board of directors of each of Xperi and TiVo have approved the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby.

Merger Consideration

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, each share of common stock of Xperi (the “Xperi Common Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (excluding any shares of Xperi Common Stock that are held in treasury) will be converted into the right to receive one share of common stock of HoldCo (“HoldCo Common Stock) per share of Xperi Common Stock and each share of common stock of TiVo (the “TiVo Common Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (excluding any shares of TiVo that are held in treasury) will be converted into the right to receive 0.455 shares of HoldCo Common Stock. The aforementioned 0.455 exchange ratio set forth in the Merger Agreement will result in Xperi stockholders owning approximately 46.5% of HoldCo Common Stock following the Effective Time and TiVo stockholders owning approximately 53.5% of the outstanding shares of HoldCo Common Stock following the Effective Time.

The Merger Agreement provides that, at the Effective Time, the Xperi stock options and other equity awards and the TiVo stock options and other equity awards generally will automatically convert into stock options and equity awards with respect to HoldCo Common Stock, on the same terms and conditions under the applicable plans and award agreements immediately prior to the Effective Time after giving effect to the exchange ratio and appropriate adjustments to reflect the consummation of the Mergers.

Registration and Listing of HoldCo Common Stock

Xperi and TiVo will prepare and will cause HoldCo to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), a registration statement on Form S-4 in connection with the issuance of shares of HoldCo Common Stock in the Mergers (the “Form S-4”), which will include as a prospectus a joint proxy statement relating to the Xperi stockholders special meeting to adopt the Merger Agreement and the TiVo stockholders special meeting to adopt the Merger Agreement (the “Joint Proxy Statement”). Xperi, TiVo and HoldCo have agreed to use reasonable best efforts to have the Form S-4 declared effective as promptly as practicable after filing.

After the Effective Time, HoldCo Common Stock will be listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (the “Nasdaq”).

Governance

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, as of the Effective Time, HoldCo will have its headquarters in San Jose, California.

Following the completion of the transaction, Xperi’s Chief Executive Officer, Jon Kirchner, will serve as Chief Executive Officer of HoldCo and Xperi’s CFO, Robert Andersen, will serve as Chief Financial Officer.


Table of Contents

HoldCo will have a board of directors (the “HoldCo Board”) consisting initially of seven directors, (i) one of whom will be Jon Kirchner, (ii) three of whom will be persons designated by Xperi, and (iii) three of whom will be persons designated by TiVo. At least two out of the three persons designated by Xperi and TiVo each, respectively, must qualify as independent under the listing standards of the Nasdaq and the applicable rules of the SEC. The Chairman of the HoldCo Board will be appointed by only those members of the HoldCo Board who qualify as independent under the listing standards of the Nasdaq and the applicable rules of the SEC.

For a period of two years following the Effective Time, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the HoldCo Board shall consist of four members, consisting of two members appointed by Xperi and two members appointed by TiVo.

Conditions to the Mergers

The completion of the Mergers is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions, including (i) the adoption of the Merger Agreement by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of all outstanding shares of Xperi Common Stock entitled to vote thereon; (ii) the adoption of the Merger Agreement by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of all outstanding shares of TiVo Common Stock entitled to vote thereon; (iii) the receipt of certain antitrust approvals; (iv) the absence of governmental restraints or prohibitions preventing the consummation of either of the Mergers; (v) the effectiveness of the Form S-4 and absence of any stop order or proceedings by the SEC; and (vi) the approval of the shares of HoldCo Common Stock to be issued in the Merger for listing on the Nasdaq. The obligation of each of Xperi and TiVo to consummate the Mergers is also conditioned on, among other things, the receipt of a tax opinion from tax counsel as to the tax-free nature of each of the Mergers, the truth and correctness of the representations and warranties made by the other party as of the closing date (subject to certain “materiality” and “material adverse effect” qualifiers) and there being no material adverse effect with respect to Xperi or TiVo.

Certain Other Terms of the Merger Agreement

The Merger Agreement contains mutual customary representations and warranties made by each of Xperi and TiVo, and also contains mutual customary pre-closing covenants, including covenants, among others, (i) to operate its businesses in the ordinary course consistent with past practice and to refrain from taking certain actions without the other party’s consent, (ii) not to solicit, initiate or knowingly take any action to facilitate or encourage, and, subject to certain exceptions, not to participate or engage in any discussions or negotiations, or cooperate in any way with respect to, any inquiries or the making of, any proposal of an alternative transaction, (iii) subject to certain exceptions, not to withdraw, qualify or modify the support of its board of directors for the Merger Agreement and the Xperi Merger or the TiVo Merger, as applicable, and (iv) to use their respective reasonable best efforts to obtain governmental, regulatory and third party approvals. In addition, the Merger Agreement contains covenants that require each of Xperi and TiVo to call and hold a special stockholder meeting and, subject to certain exceptions, require each of the board of directors of Xperi and TiVo to recommend to its stockholders to approve the Mergers and adopt the Merger Agreement.

The Merger Agreement contains certain termination rights for each of Xperi and TiVo, including in the event that (i) the Mergers are not consummated on or before September 30, 2020 (the “Outside Date”) in the event that the regulatory closing conditions have not been satisfied, (ii) the approval of the Mergers and the adoption of the Merger Agreement by the stockholders of Xperi or the stockholders of TiVo is not obtained at the respective stockholder meetings or (iii) if any restraint having the effect of preventing the consummation of the Xperi Merger or the TiVo Merger shall have become final and nonappealable or if any governmental entity that must grant a requisite regulatory approval has denied approval of the Xperi Merger or the TiVo Merger. In addition, Xperi and TiVo can each terminate the Merger Agreement prior to the stockholder meeting of the other party if, among other things, the other party’s board of directors has changed its recommendation that its stockholders approve the Xperi Merger or the TiVo Merger, as applicable, and adopt the Merger Agreement, or has failed to make or reaffirm such recommendation in certain circumstances.

The Merger Agreement further provides that, upon termination of the Merger Agreement under specified circumstances, including (i) a change in the recommendation of the board of directors of Xperi or TiVo, as applicable or (ii) a termination of the Merger Agreement by Xperi or TiVo, as applicable, because of a failure of the stockholders of the other party to adopt the Merger Agreement at the stockholder meeting, a material breach by the other party or because the Mergers are not consummated by the Outside Date, in each case set forth in this clause (ii) at a time when there was an offer or proposal for an alternative transaction with respect to such party and such party enters into or consummates an alternative transaction within 12 months following such date of termination, Xperi will pay to TiVo a termination fee equal to $44 million in cash, in the event such fee is payable by Xperi or TiVo will pay to Xperi a termination fee equal to $50.8 million in cash, in the event such fee is payable by TiVo.

The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Merger Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 and incorporated herein by reference. The Merger Agreement has been attached to provide investors with information regarding its terms. It is not intended to provide any other factual information about Xperi or


Table of Contents

TiVo. In particular, the assertions embodied in the representations and warranties contained in the Merger Agreement are qualified by information in confidential disclosure letters provided by each of Xperi and TiVo in connection with the signing of the Merger Agreement. These confidential disclosure letters contain information that modifies, qualifies and creates exceptions to the representations and warranties and certain covenants set forth in the Merger Agreement. Moreover, certain representations and warranties in the Merger Agreement were used for the purpose of allocating risk between Xperi and TiVo rather than establishing matters as facts and were made only as of the date of the Merger Agreement (or such other date or dates as may be specified in the Merger Agreement). Accordingly, the representations and warranties in the Merger Agreement should not be relied upon as characterizations of the actual state of facts about Xperi or TiVo.

Financing Commitment Letters

Financing of the Merger

In connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement, Xperi and TiVo obtained a debt commitment letter (the “Commitment Letter”), dated December 18, 2019, with Bank of America, N.A. (“Bank of America”), BofA Securities, Inc. and Royal Bank of Canada (“Royal Bank”), pursuant to which, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, Bank of America and Royal Bank have committed to provide a senior secured first lien term loan B facility in an aggregate principal amount of $1,100 million (the “Debt Financing”). The proceeds from the Debt Financing may be used (i) to pay fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Merger and the related transactions, (ii) to finance the refinancing of certain existing indebtedness of Xperi and TiVo, and (iii) to the extent of any remaining amounts, for working capital and other general corporate purposes.

The foregoing summary of the Commitment Letter and the transactions contemplated thereby does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Commitment Letter attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

Important Information and Where to Find It

In connection with the proposed transaction, Xperi and TiVo will cause HoldCo to file with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-4 that will include a joint proxy statement of Xperi and TiVo and that also will constitute a prospectus of HoldCo (“Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus”). Xperi, TiVo and HoldCo may also file other documents with the SEC regarding the proposed transaction. This document is not a substitute for the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus or any other document which Xperi, TiVo or HoldCo may file with the SEC. INVESTORS, XPERI STOCKHOLDERS AND TIVO STOCKHOLDERS ARE URGED TO READ THE JOINT PROXY STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS AND ANY OTHER RELEVANT DOCUMENTS THAT ARE FILED OR WILL BE FILED WITH THE SEC, AS WELL AS ANY AMENDMENTS OR SUPPLEMENTS TO THESE DOCUMENTS, CAREFULLY AND IN THEIR ENTIRETY BECAUSE THEY CONTAIN OR WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE PROPOSED TRANSACTION AND RELATED MATTERS. Investors, Xperi stockholders and TiVo stockholders may obtain free copies of the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus (when available) and other documents that are filed or will be filed with the SEC by Xperi, TiVo or HoldCo through the website maintained by the SEC at www.sec.gov or by contacting the investor relations department of Xperi or TiVo at the following:

Table of Contents

Xperi stockholders and TiVo stockholders may obtain additional information regarding the direct and indirect interests of the participants in the solicitation of proxies in connection with the proposed transaction, including the interests of Xperi and TiVo directors and executive officers in the transaction, which may be different than those of Xperi and TiVo stockholders generally, by reading the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus and any other relevant documents that are filed or will be filed with the SEC relating to the transaction.

No Offer or Solicitation

This document is not intended to and shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities or a solicitation of any vote of 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. No offer of securities shall be made except by means of a prospectus meeting the requirements of Section 10 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This document contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These forward-looking statements are based on Xperi’s and TiVo’s current expectations, estimates and projections about the expected date of closing of the proposed transaction and the potential benefits thereof, its business and industry, management’s beliefs and certain assumptions made by Xperi and TiVo, all of which are subject to change. In this context, forward-looking statements often address expected future business and financial performance and financial condition, and often contain words such as “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “could,” “seek,” “see,” “will,” “may,” “would,” “might,” “potentially,” “estimate,” “continue,” “expect,” “target,” similar expressions or the negatives of these words or other comparable terminology that convey uncertainty of future events or outcomes. All forward-looking statements by their nature address matters that involve risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, and are not guarantees of future results, such as statements about the consummation of the proposed transaction and the anticipated benefits thereof. These and other forward-looking statements, including the failure to consummate the proposed transaction or to make or take any filing or other action required to consummate the transaction on a timely matter or at all, are not guarantees of future results and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. Accordingly, there are or will be important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated in such statements and, therefore, you should not place undue reliance on any such statements and caution must be exercised in relying on forward-looking statements. Important risk factors that may cause such a difference include, but are not limited to: (i) the completion of the proposed transaction on anticipated terms and timing, including obtaining shareholder and regulatory approvals, anticipated tax treatment, unforeseen liabilities and other conditions to the completion of the transaction; (ii) failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the proposed transaction, including as a result of delay in completing the transaction or integrating the businesses of Xperi and TiVo; (iii) potential litigation relating to the proposed transaction that could be instituted against Xperi, TiVo or their respective directors; (iv) the risk that disruptions from the proposed transaction will harm Xperi’s or TiVo’s business, including current plans and operations; (v) the ability of Xperi or TiVo to retain and hire key personnel; (vi) potential adverse reactions or changes to business relationships resulting from the announcement or completion of the proposed transaction; (vii) uncertainty as to the long-term value of HoldCo common stock; (viii) legislative, regulatory and economic developments affecting Xperi’s and TiVo’s businesses; (ix) general economic and market developments and conditions; (x) the evolving legal, regulatory and tax regimes under which Xperi and TiVo operate; (xi) potential business uncertainty, including changes to existing business relationships, during the pendency of the proposed transaction that could affect Xperi’s and/or TiVo’s financial performance; (xii) restrictions during the pendency of the proposed transaction that may impact Xperi’s or TiVo’s ability to pursue certain business opportunities or strategic transactions; (xiii) unpredictability and severity of catastrophic events, including, but not limited to, acts of terrorism or outbreak of war or hostilities, as well as Xperi’s and TiVo’s response to any of the aforementioned factors; (xiv) failure to receive the approval of the stockholders of Xperi and/or TiVo; and (xv) any plans regarding a potential separation of the combined businesses. These risks, as well as other risks associated with the proposed transaction, are more fully discussed in the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus to be filed with the SEC in connection with the proposed transaction. While the list of factors presented here is, and the list of factors presented in the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus will be, considered representative, no such list should be considered to be a complete statement of all potential risks and uncertainties. Unlisted factors may present significant additional obstacles to the realization of forward looking statements. Consequences of material differences in results as compared with those anticipated in the forward-looking statements could include, among other things, business disruption, operational problems, financial loss, legal liability to third parties and similar risks, any of which could have a material adverse effect on Xperi’s or TiVo’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or liquidity. Neither Xperi nor TiVo assumes any obligation to publicly provide revisions or updates to any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, should circumstances change, except as otherwise required by securities and other applicable laws.

(ii)    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each holder of shares of TWOLF Common Stock converted pursuant to either Merger who would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Holdco Common Stock (after taking into account all Certificates and Book-Entry Shares delivered by such holder) shall receive, in lieu thereof, cash (without interest) in an amount equal to such fraction as determined below. As promptly as practicable following the Effective Time, the Exchange Agent shall determine the excess of (i) the number of full shares of Holdco Common Stock delivered to the Exchange Agent by Holdco for issuance to holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares over (ii) the aggregate number of full shares of Holdco Common Stock to be distributed to holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares (such excess being herein referred to as the “Excess Shares”). As soon as practicable after the Effective Time, the Exchange Agent, as agent for such holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, shall sell the Excess Shares at then prevailing prices on the NYSE, all in the manner provided herein.

(iii)    The sale of the Excess Shares by the Exchange Agent shall be executed on the NYSE and shall be executed in round lots to the extent practicable. Until the net proceeds of any such sale or sales have been distributed to the holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, the Exchange Agent shall hold such proceeds in trust for such holders. The net proceeds of any such sale or sales of Excess Shares to be distributed to the holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares shall be reduced by any and all commissions, transfer taxes and other out-of-pocket transaction costs, as well as any expenses, of the Exchange Agent incurred in connection with such sale or sales. The Exchange Agent shall determine the portion of such net proceeds to which each holder of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares shall be entitled, if any, by multiplying the amount of the aggregate net proceeds by a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount of the fractional share interest to which such holder of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares is entitled (after taking into account all Certificates and Book-Entry Shares then held by such holder) and the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of fractional share interests to which all holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares are entitled. As soon as practicable after the determination of the amount of cash, if any, to be paid to holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares with respect to any fractional share interests, the Exchange Agent shall promptly pay such amounts to such holders subject to and in accordance with this Section 3.3(e).

(f)    Return of Merger Consideration. Any portion of the Merger Consideration made available to the Exchange Agent pursuant to Section 3.3(a) that remains undistributed to the holders of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares for one year after the Effective Time shall be delivered to Holdco, upon demand, and any holders of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares who have not theretofore complied with this Article III shall thereafter be entitled to look only to Holdco for payment of their claim for any shares of Holdco Common Stock, any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Holdco Common Stock and any dividends or distributions with respect to Holdco Common Stock.

(g)    No Liability. None of XRAY, TWOLF, Holdco, XRAY Merger Sub, the XRAY Surviving Corporation, TWOLF Merger Sub, the TWOLF Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent shall be liable to any person in respect of any portion of the Merger Consideration delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law. If any Certificate or Book-Entry Share has not been surrendered prior to seven years after the Effective Time, or immediately prior to such earlier date on which any cash, any shares of Holdco Common Stock, any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Holdco Common Stock or any dividends or distributions with respect to Holdco Common Stock in respect of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Body, any such shares, cash, dividends or distributions in respect of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of Holdco, free and clear of all claims or interests of any person previously entitled thereto.

(h)    Investment of Merger Consideration. The Exchange Agent shall invest any cash included in the Exchange Fund as directed by Holdco, provided, that no losses on such investments shall affect the cash payable

 

10


Table of Contents

to former holders of shares of XRAY Common Stock or shares of TWOLF Common Stock pursuant to this Article III. Any interest and other income resulting from such investments shall be paid to Holdco.

(i)    Withholding Rights. Each of Holdco and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld or paid over to or deposited with the relevant Governmental Body, such withheld amounts 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.

(j)    Lost Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by Holdco or the Exchange Agent, the posting by such person of a bond in such reasonable amount as Holdco or the Exchange Agent, as applicable, may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Exchange Agent shall deliver in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, the Merger Consideration with respect to the shares of XRAY Common Stock or shares of TWOLF Common Stock, as applicable, formerly represented thereby, any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Holdco Common Stock, and unpaid dividends and distributions on shares of Holdco Common Stock deliverable in respect thereof, pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 3.4    Certain Adjustments. If between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, the outstanding shares of XRAY Common Stock or TWOLF Common Stock are changed into a different number of shares in accordance with Section 6.2 by reason of any reclassification, recapitalization, split-up, combination, exchange of shares, dividend payable in stock or other securities or other similar transaction, the XRAY Exchange Ratio and the TWOLF Exchange Ratio and related provisions, without duplication, shall be appropriately adjusted to proportionately reflect such reclassification, recapitalization, split-up, combination, exchange, dividend or other similar transaction and to provide to the holders of XRAY Common Stock and TWOLF Common Stock or XRAY Equity Awards and TWOLF Equity Awards the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such reclassification, recapitalization, split-up, combination, exchange, dividend or other similar transaction.

Section 3.5    Further Assurances. At and after the Effective Time, the officers and directors or managers, as applicable, of Holdco, TWOLF Surviving Corporation and XRAY Surviving Corporation shall be authorized to execute and deliver, in the name and on behalf of XRAY or TWOLF, any deeds, bills of sale, assignments or assurances and to take and do, in the name and on behalf thereof, any other actions and things necessary to vest, perfect or confirm of record or otherwise in Holdco, any and all right, title and interest in, to and under any of the rights, properties or assets acquired or to be acquired by Holdco as a result of, or in connection with, the Mergers.

Body to delay, or otherwise not to consummate as soon as practicable, any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement except with the prior written consent of TWOLF or XRAY, as applicable.

(b)    Without limiting the foregoing, TWOLF and XRAY shall each use its reasonable best efforts: (1) to avoid the entry of any Restraint; and (2) to eliminate every impediment under any Antitrust Law that may be asserted by any Governmental Body so as to enable the Effective Time to occur as soon as reasonably possible (and in any event, not later than the Outside Date).

(c)    Without limitation to the parties’ obligations hereunder, neither TWOLF nor XRAY shall, directly or indirectly (whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise), acquire, purchase, lease or license (or agree to acquire, purchase, lease or license) any business, corporation, partnership, association or other business organization or division or part thereof, or any securities or collection of assets, if doing so would reasonably be expected to: (i) impose any material delay in the obtaining of, or materially increase the risk of not satisfying the condition set forth in Section 8.1(c); (ii) materially increase the risk of any Governmental Body entering an order prohibiting the consummation of the Mergers or the other transactions contemplated hereby; (iii) materially increase the risk of not being able to remove any such order on appeal or otherwise; or (iv) otherwise prevent or materially delay the consummation of the Mergers or the other transactions contemplated hereby.

(vi)    Each of TWOLF and XRAY agrees that none of the information supplied or to be supplied by or on behalf of itself for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Registration Statement will, at the time the Registration Statement becomes effective under the Securities Act, 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. Each of TWOLF and XRAY agrees that none of the information supplied or to be supplied by or on behalf of itself for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus, will, at the time the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto is first mailed to the stockholders of TWOLF and the stockholders of XRAY, respectively, and at the time of the TWOLF Stockholder Meeting and the XRAY Stockholder Meeting, respectively, 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.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the determination (but not the adoption, approval, recommendation or endorsement) by the TWOLF Board or XRAY Board, as applicable, that an Acquisition Proposal is or would be reasonably likely to lead to a Superior Proposal in accordance with Section 7.1(b) shall not, in and of itself, be deemed a “Change in Board Recommendation,” and the TWOLF Board or XRAY Board, as applicable, may, at any time prior to receipt of the relevant Stockholder Approval, take any of the actions set forth in Section 7.4(b)(i) and Section 7.4(b)(ii) below (provided, however, that prior to taking any such action, such party complies with Section 7.4(c) of this Agreement):

(i)    if there is an Intervening Event, effect a Change in Board Recommendation if such board concludes in good faith, after consultation with outside counsel, that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law; and

(ii)    effect a Change in Board Recommendation in response to an Acquisition Proposal if (A) such board concludes in good faith, after consultation with outside counsel, that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law and (B) such board concludes in good faith, after consultation with such party’s financial advisor and outside counsel, that the Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal.

(c)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 7.4(b), the TWOLF Board and the XRAY Board shall not make a Change in Board Recommendation pursuant to Section 7.4(b)(i) and Section 7.4(b)(ii) unless: (A) TWOLF or XRAY, as applicable, shall have first provided prior written notice at least four (4) Business Days prior to making a Change in Board Recommendation (the “Notice Period”) to the other party of its intention to make a Change in Board Recommendation, which notice shall, if the basis for the proposed action by the its board is not related to an Acquisition Proposal, contain a description of the Intervening Event giving rise to such proposed action or, if the basis for the proposed action by its board is an Acquisition Proposal, include the information with respect to such Acquisition Proposal that is specified in Section 7.1(c) (a “Superior Proposal Notice”) (it being understood and agreed that the delivery of such notice shall not, in and of itself, be deemed to be a Change in Board Recommendation); (B) TWOLF or XRAY, as applicable, shall, and shall cause its respective financial advisor and legal counsel to, during the Notice Period, negotiate with the other party in good faith to make such amendments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement so that such Acquisition Proposal ceases to constitute a Superior Proposal, if the other party, in its discretion, proposes to make such amendments (it being understood and agreed (x) that in the event that, after commencement of the Notice Period, there is any material revision to the terms of a Superior Proposal, including any revision in price, the Notice Period shall be extended, if applicable, to ensure that at least two (2) Business Days remain in the Notice Period subsequent to the time the party notifies the other party of any such material revision and (y) that there may be multiple extensions of the Notice Period); and (C) the other party does not make, within the Notice Period, a proposal that is determined by its board of directors (after consultation with such party’s financial advisor and outside counsel), to cause the Intervening Event to no longer form the basis for its board to effect a Change in Board Recommendation or cause the offer previously constituting a Superior Proposal to no longer constitute a Superior Proposal, as the case may be; provided, that the public announcement of a Superior

Table of Contents

Proposal Notice that such party determines that it is required to make under applicable Law shall not, in and of itself, constitute a Change in Board Recommendation, unless and until it shall have failed promptly after the end of the Notice Period to publicly announce that it (A) was recommending the Transactions and (B) has determined that such other Acquisition Proposal (taking into account (1) any modifications or adjustments made to the Transactions and agreed to by the parties and (2) any modifications or adjustments made to such other Acquisition Proposal) was not a Superior Proposal and was rejecting such Superior Proposal.

(d)    Nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the TWOLF Board or the XRAY Board from (i) taking and disclosing to their respective stockholders a position contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a) under the Exchange Act or complying with the provisions of Rule 14d-9 promulgated under the Exchange Act, (ii) making any disclosure to their respective stockholders that it determines in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal counsel) that the failure to make such disclosure would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the board’s fiduciary duties under applicable Law; provided, however, the foregoing rules and permitted disclosures will in no way eliminate or modify the effect that any action pursuant to such rules or disclosures would otherwise have under this Agreement.

Section 7.5    Notification of Certain Events. Each of TWOLF and XRAY shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable, notify the other:

(a)    upon becoming aware that any material representation or warranty made by it in this Agreement has become untrue or inaccurate, or of any material failure of such Person to comply with or satisfy any covenant or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by it under this Agreement, in each case, such that any condition to the Mergers would fail to be satisfied; provided, however, that no such notification shall affect or be deemed to modify any representation or warranty of such party set forth herein or the conditions to the obligations of the other party to consummate the Mergers, or the remedies available to the parties hereto, and provided, further, that failure to give any such notice shall not be treated as a breach of covenant for the purposes of Section 8.2(a), Section 8.3(a), Section 9.1(h) or Section 9.1(i) of this Agreement, as applicable.

(b)    the receipt of any written communication from any Person alleging that the consent of such Person is or may be required in connection with the Mergers;

(c)    of any material written communication from any Governmental Body related to the Mergers; and

(d)    of any proceedings commenced and served upon it or any TWOLF Subsidiaries, or to the Knowledge of TWOLF, threatened in writing against TWOLF or any TWOLF Subsidiaries, that, if pending on the Agreement Date, would have been required to have been disclosed pursuant to any Section of this Agreement.

Section 7.6    Access and Investigation. Subject to the Confidentiality Agreement, during the period commencing on the Agreement Date and ending on the earlier of (b) the Effective Time, and (c) the valid termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1 (such period being referred to herein as the “Interim Period”), each of TWOLF and XRAY shall, and shall cause their respective Representatives, to: (i) provide XRAY or TWOLF, as applicable, with reasonable access in a manner not unreasonably disruptive to the operation of the businesses of TWOLF or XRAY, as applicable, or to their respective Subsidiaries, during normal business hours to TWOLF’s or XRAY’s, as applicable, and each of their respective Subsidiary’s, Representatives, books, records, Tax Returns, operating and financial reports, work papers, assets, Contracts and other documents and information relating to TWOLF or to XRAY, as applicable, or to their respective Subsidiaries; and (ii) provide XRAY or TWOLF, as applicable, and their respective Representatives with such copies of the books, records, Tax Returns, work papers, Contracts and other documents and information relating to TWOLF or XRAY, as applicable, and their respective Subsidiaries, and with such additional financial, operating and other data and information regarding TWOLF or XRAY, as applicable, and their respective Subsidiaries, as the other party may reasonably request. Information obtained by XRAY or TWOLF, as

Table of Contents

applicable, pursuant to this Section 7.6 will constitute “Confidential Information” (subject to any exception contained in such definition) under the Confidentiality Agreement and will be subject to the provisions of the Confidentiality Agreement. Nothing in this Section 7.6 shall require TWOLF or XRAY to permit any inspection, or to disclose any information, that in the reasonable judgment of such party, would reasonably be expected to: (A) violate any of its or its Affiliates’ respective Contract obligations with respect to confidentiality; (B) result in a violation of applicable Law or (C) result in loss of legal protection, including the attorney-client privilege and work product doctrine. Without limiting the foregoing, in the event that TWOLF or XRAY does not provide access or information in reliance on the immediately preceding sentence, it shall provide notice to the other party that it is withholding such access or information and shall use all reasonable efforts to communicate the applicable information in a way that would not violate the applicable Law or Contract, or risk waiver of such privilege, including by using reasonable best efforts to obtain the required consent of any third party necessary to provide such disclosure or developing an alternative to providing such information so as to address such matters that is reasonably acceptable to the other party.

Section 7.7    Confidentiality. The parties hereto acknowledge that XRAY and TWOLF have previously executed a mutual confidentiality agreement, dated as of June 14, 2019, as amended on September 10, 2019 (the “Confidentiality Agreement”), which shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with its terms, except as expressly modified herein.

Section 7.8    Public Announcements. The initial press release with respect to the execution and delivery of this Agreement shall be a joint press release to be reasonably agreed upon by XRAY and TWOLF. Except as permitted in accordance with Section 7.4, XRAY and TWOLF shall thereafter consult with the other party before issuing, and give the other party the reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon, any press release or other public statements with respect to the Transactions and consider in good faith the views of the other party, and shall not issue any such press release or make any such public statement prior to such consultation, except as may be required by applicable Law, court process or by obligations pursuant to any listing agreement with or rules of any securities exchange or trading market on which securities of such party are listed, in which case such party shall allow the other party reasonable time to comment on such release or announcement in advance of such issuance.

Section 7.9    Employee Matters.

(b)    During the Continuation Period, Holdco shall, or shall cause a Subsidiary of Holdco to, provide to each Covered Employee for so long as such Covered Employee remains employed by of Holdco or any of its Subsidiaries during the Continuation Period, (i) annual base salary or base wage rate and target cash incentive compensation opportunities (for the avoidance of doubt, excluding equity incentives), in each case, that are no less favorable than such annual base salary or base wage rate and target cash incentive compensation opportunities provided to the Covered Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time, (ii) severance pay and benefits at levels that are no less favorable than the levels of such severance pay and benefits as in effect under the TWOLF Plans or XRAY Plans, as applicable, immediately prior to the Effective Time, and (iii) other employee benefits that are substantially comparable, in the aggregate, to the greater of those provided to Covered Employees under the TWOLF Plans or XRAY Plans, as applicable, immediately prior to the Effective Time; provided, however, that the benefits provided under clause (iii) may be adjusted earlier than the final day of the Continuation Period in connection with the adoption of benefit programs that are intended to cover Covered Employees on a harmonized basis, such that employees of TWOLF or any TWOLF Subsidiary are treated no less favorably than similarly situated employees of XRAY or any XRAY Subsidiary, and vice versa.

In connection with the Merger, the following existing indebtedness of XRAY and TWOLF will be discharged and repaid in full, all commitments thereunder will be terminated (if applicable) and the guarantees and security interests with respect thereto (if any) will be released (the “Refinancing”): (i) the Credit and Guaranty Agreement, dated as of November 22, 2019, by and among TWOLF, as borrower, the guarantors party thereto, the lenders party thereto from time to time, and HPS Investment Partners, LLC, as administrative agent, (ii) the ABL Credit and Guaranty Agreement, dated as of November 22, 2019, by and among TWOLF, as borrower, the guarantors party thereto, the lenders party thereto from time to time, Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc., as administrative agent and collateral agent, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as co-collateral agent, (iii) the Indenture, dated as of March 4, 2015, between Rovi Corporation and U.S. Bank National Association and (iv) the Credit Agreement, dated as of December 1, 2016 (the “Existing XRAY Credit Agreement”), among XRAY, as borrower, the lenders party thereto from time to time and Royal Bank of Canada, as administrative agent

and collateral agent, in each case as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time. XRAY, TWOLF and their respective subsidiaries are sometimes collectively referred to herein as the “Companies”.

You have also advised us that in connection with the Merger, the Borrower (as defined in Annex I hereto) intends to incur a $1,100 million senior secured first lien term loan B facility (the “Term Facility”). The Merger, the Refinancing, the entering into and initial funding of the Term Facility and all related transactions are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Transaction”. The date of the consummation of the Merger and the funding of the Term Facility is referred to herein as the “Closing Date”.

1.    Commitments. In connection with the foregoing, (a) Bank of America and Royal Bank are pleased to advise you of their commitment to provide, on a several and not joint basis, 60% and 40%, respectively, of the principal amount of the Term Facility (in such capacity, together with any Additional Arranger appointed as described below, the “Initial Lenders”), subject only to the conditions set forth in paragraph 5 hereto; and (b) BofAS and RBCCM are pleased to advise you of their willingness, and you hereby engage BofAS and RBCCM, to act as joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunning managers (in such capacities, together with any Additional Arranger appointed as described below, the “Lead Arrangers”) for the Term Facility, and in connection therewith to form a syndicate of lenders for the Term Facility (collectively, the “Lenders”), in consultation with you and reasonably acceptable to you. It is understood and agreed that (x) BofAS shall have “top left” placement in any listing of the Lead Arrangers and (y) Bank of America shall act as administrative agent for the Term Facility (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the commitments of the Initial Lenders with respect to the funding of the Term Facility will be subject only to the satisfaction (or waiver by the Initial Lenders) of the conditions precedent set forth in paragraph 5 hereof. All capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meanings as specified therefor in Annexes I and II hereto (the “Summary of Terms”).

Except as set forth below, you agree that no other agents, co-agents, arrangers or bookrunners will be appointed, no other titles will be awarded and no compensation (other than compensation expressly contemplated by this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter (as defined below) and the administrative agent fee letter between you and BofAML dated as of the date hereof (the “Administrative Agent Fee Letter”)) will be paid to any Lender in respect of the Term Facility unless you and we shall so agree; provided that you may, on or prior to the date which is 10 business days after the date of your acceptance of this Commitment Letter, appoint up to two additional joint bookrunners, arrangers, agents, co-agents, managers or co-managers (the “Additional Arrangers”) for the Term Facility, and award such Additional Arrangers titles in a manner and with economics set forth in the immediately succeeding proviso (it being understood that, to the extent you appoint any Additional Arranger or confer other titles in respect of the Term Facility, then, notwithstanding anything in paragraph 2 to the contrary, the commitments of the Initial Lenders in respect of the Term Facility, in each case pursuant to and in accordance with this proviso, will be permanently reduced by the amount of the commitments of such appointed entities (or their relevant affiliates) in respect of the Term Facility, with such reduction allocated to reduce the commitments of the Initial Lenders in respect of the Term Facility at such time (excluding any Initial Lender that becomes a party hereto pursuant to this proviso) on a pro rata basis according to the respective amounts of their commitments, upon the execution by such Additional Arranger (and any relevant affiliate) of customary joinder documentation and, thereafter, each such Additional Arranger (and any relevant affiliate) shall constitute a “Commitment Party” and/or “Lead Arranger” hereunder and it or its relevant affiliate providing such commitment shall constitute an “Initial Lender” hereunder); provided, further, that, in connection with the appointment of any Additional Arranger in accordance with the immediately preceding proviso, (a) the aggregate economics payable to all such Additional Arrangers (or any relevant affiliate thereof) in respect of the Term Facility shall not exceed 10% of the total underwriting economics payable to the Commitment Parties in respect of the Term Facility pursuant to the Fee Letter (exclusive of any fees payable to the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such), (b) no Additional Arranger (or its relevant affiliates) shall

receive a greater percentage of the economics in respect of the Term Facility than BofAML and (c) each Additional Arranger (or its relevant affiliates) shall assume a proportion of the commitments with respect to the Term Facility that is equal to the proportion of the economics allocated to such Additional Arranger pursuant to customary joinder documentation executed by such Additional Arranger (and any relevant affiliate).

2.    Syndication. The Lead Arrangers intend to commence syndication of the Term Facility promptly after your acceptance of the terms of this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter and the Administrative Agent Fee Letter; provided that we agree not to syndicate our commitments to certain banks, financial institutions and other institutional lenders and any competitors (or Known Affiliates (as defined below) of competitors) of the Companies, in each case, that have been specified to us by you in writing prior to the date hereof (collectively, “Disqualified Lenders”); provided, further, that you, upon notice to us after the date hereof and prior to the launch of general syndication (or to the Administrative Agent after the Closing Date), shall be permitted to supplement in writing the list of persons that are Disqualified Lenders to the extent such supplemented person is or becomes a competitor or a Known Affiliate of a competitor of the Companies, which supplement shall be in the form of a list provided to us (or the Administrative Agent) and become effective upon delivery to us (or the Administrative Agent), but which supplement shall not apply retroactively to disqualify any parties that have previously acquired an assignment in the loans under the Term Facility. As used herein, “Known Affiliates” of any person means, as to such person, affiliates readily identifiable by name, but excluding any affiliate that is a bona fide debt fund or investment vehicle that is primarily engaged in, or that advises funds or other investment vehicles that are engaged in, making, purchasing, holding or otherwise investing in commercial loans, bonds or similar extensions of credit or securities in the ordinary course and with respect to which the Disqualified Lender does not, directly or indirectly, possess the power to direct or cause the direction of the investment policies of such entity. Without limiting your obligations to assist with syndication efforts as set forth herein, it is understood that the Initial Lenders’ commitments hereunder are not conditioned upon the syndication of, or receipt of commitments or participations in respect of, the Term Facility and in no event shall the commencement or successful completion of syndication of the Term Facility constitute a condition to the availability of the Term Facility on the Closing Date. You agree, until the Syndication Date (as hereinafter defined), to actively assist the Lead Arrangers in achieving a syndication of the Term Facility that is reasonably satisfactory to the Lead Arrangers and you; provided that, notwithstanding each Lead Arranger’s right to syndicate the Term Facility and receive commitments with respect thereto, it is agreed that (i) syndication of, or receipt of commitments or participations in respect of, all or any portion of an Initial Lender’s commitments hereunder prior to the date of the consummation of the Merger and the date of the funding under the Term Facility shall not be a condition to such Initial Lender’s commitments and (ii) (a) except as you in your sole discretion may otherwise agree in writing, no Initial Lender shall be relieved, released or novated from its obligations hereunder (including its obligation to fund the Term Facility on the Closing Date) in connection with any syndication, assignment or participation of the Term Facility, including its commitments in respect thereof, until after the funding of the Term Facility has occurred; (b) no assignment or novation shall become effective with respect to all or any portion of any Initial Lender’s commitments in respect of the Term Facility until after the funding of the Term Facility; and (c) each Initial Lender shall retain exclusive control over all rights and obligations with respect to its commitments in respect of the Term Facility, including all rights with respect to consents, modifications, supplements, waivers and amendments, until the Closing Date has occurred and the funding under the Term Facility has been made. Such assistance shall include (a) your providing and (subject to customary non-reliance agreements) causing your respective advisors to provide, the Lead Arrangers upon request with all customary and reasonably available information reasonably deemed necessary by the Lead Arrangers to complete such syndication, including, but not limited to, customary and reasonably available information relating to the Borrower, the Companies and the Transaction as may be reasonably requested by us (including the Projections (as hereinafter defined); (b) your assistance in the preparation of a customary information memorandum with respect to the Term Facility (an “Information Memorandum”) and other customary materials to be used in connection with the syndication of the Term Facility (collectively with

the Summary of Terms and any additional summary of terms prepared for distribution to Lenders, the “Information Materials”); (c) your using your commercially reasonable efforts to make your respective appropriate management available to participate in the marketing of the Term Facility at mutually agreed upon times and locations following the completion of the Information Memorandum; (d) the hosting, with the Lead Arrangers, of one general meeting of prospective Lenders at a time and location to be mutually agreed upon; (e) your using commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the syndication efforts of the Lead Arrangers benefit from your respective existing lending relationships, if any; (f) your using commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, prior to the launch of syndication of the Term Facility, monitored public corporate credit or family ratings (but not any specific rating) for the Borrower after giving effect to the Transaction and ratings of the Term Facility from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”) and Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services, a Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC business (“S&P”) (collectively, the “Ratings”); and (g) until the later of the Syndication Date and the Closing Date, (x) with respect to XRAY only, ensuring that no debt securities or credit facilities of XRAY or any of its subsidiaries, and (y) with respect to TWOLF only, ensuring that no debt securities or credit facilities of TWOLF or any of its subsidiaries, is announced, syndicated or placed without the prior written consent of the Lead Arrangers (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) if such financing, syndication or placement would materially and adversely affect the primary syndication of the Term Facility (it being understood that borrowings under the existing revolving credit facility of the Companies, ordinary course capital lease, purchase money and equipment financings of any of the Companies and other indebtedness permitted to be outstanding or issued under the Merger Agreement shall be permitted). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter, the Administrative Agent Fee Letter or any other letter agreement or undertaking concerning the financing of the Transaction to the contrary, neither the obtaining of the Ratings referenced above nor the compliance with any of the other provisions set forth in clauses (a) through (g) above or any other provision of this paragraph shall constitute a condition to the commitments hereunder or the funding of the Term Facility on the Closing Date.

It is understood and agreed that the Lead Arrangers will manage and control all aspects of the syndication of the Term Facility in consultation with you, including any titles offered to prospective Lenders (subject to your consent rights set forth herein and your rights of appointment set forth in paragraph 1 and excluding Disqualified Lenders), when commitments will be accepted and the final allocations of the commitments among the Lenders and the amount and distribution of the fees among the Lenders. It is further understood that the Initial Lenders’ commitments hereunder are not conditioned upon the syndication of, or receipt of commitments in respect of, the Term Facility and in no event shall the commencement of successful completion of syndication of the Term Facility constitute a condition to availability of the Term Facility on the Closing Date.

3.    Information Requirements. You hereby represent and warrant that (with respect to Information relating to XRAY and its subsidiaries and affiliates, to the knowledge of TWOLF, and, with respect to Information relating to TWOLF and its subsidiaries and affiliates, to the knowledge of XRAY) (a) all written factual information, other than Projections (as defined below), budgets, estimates and other forward-looking information or information of a general economic or industry nature, that has been or is hereafter made available to the Lead Arrangers or any of the Lenders by or on behalf of you or any of your representatives in connection with any aspect of the Transaction (the “Information”) when furnished to the Lead Arrangers is and will be correct when taken as a whole, in all material respects, and does not and will not, taken as a whole, contain any untrue statement of a fact or omit to state a fact necessary to make the statements contained therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not materially misleading (in each case, after giving effect to all supplements and updates with respect thereto) and (b) all financial projections concerning the Borrower and the Companies that have been or are hereafter made available to the Lead Arrangers or any of the Lenders by or on behalf of you or any of your representatives (the “Projections”) have been or will be prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed by you to be reasonable at the time provided to the Lead Arrangers (it being understood and agreed that the

Table of Contents

Projections are as to future events and are not to be viewed as facts or a guarantee of performance or achievement, that the Projections are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond your control, and that actual results may differ from the Projections and such differences may be material). You agree that if at any time prior to the later of (a) the earlier of (i) the date on which a Successful Syndication (as defined in the Fee Letter) is achieved and (ii) 45 days following the Closing Date (the earlier of such dates, the “Syndication Date”) and (b) the Closing Date, any of the representations in the preceding sentence would be incorrect in any material respect if the Information and Projections were being furnished, and such representations were being made, at such time, then you will promptly supplement, or cause to be supplemented (with respect to Information relating to XRAY and its subsidiaries and affiliates, limited to the commercially reasonable efforts of TWOLF, and, with respect to Information relating to TWOLF and its subsidiaries and affiliates, limited to the commercially reasonable efforts of XRAY), the Information and Projections so that such representations will be correct in all material respects at such time, it being understood in each case that such supplementation shall cure any breach of such representation and warranty. In issuing this commitment and in arranging and syndicating the Term Facility, the Commitment Parties are and will be using and relying on the Information and the Projections without independent verification thereof. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this paragraph will constitute a condition to the availability of the Term Facility on the Closing Date.

You acknowledge that (a) the Lead Arrangers on your behalf will make available, on a confidential basis, Information Materials to the proposed syndicate of Lenders by posting the Information Materials on IntraLinks or another similar electronic system (the “Platform”) and (b) certain prospective Lenders (such Lenders, “Public Lenders”; all other Lenders, “Private Lenders”) may have personnel that do not wish to receive material non-public information (within the meaning of the United States federal securities laws, “MNPI”) with respect to the Borrower, the Companies or the respective securities of any of the Borrower or the Companies, and who may be engaged in investment and other market-related activities with respect to such entities’ securities. If requested, you will assist the Lead Arrangers in preparing an additional version of the Information Materials not containing MNPI (the “Public Information Materials”) to be distributed to prospective Public Lenders.

Before distribution of any Information Materials (a) to prospective Private Lenders, XRAY shall provide the Lead Arrangers with a customary letter authorizing the dissemination of the Information Materials relating to XRAY and its subsidiaries and TWOLF shall provide the Lead Arrangers with a customary letter authorizing the dissemination of the Information Materials relating to TWOLF and its subsidiaries; and (b) to prospective Public Lenders, XRAY shall provide the Lead Arrangers with a customary letter authorizing the dissemination of the Public Information Materials relating to XRAY and its subsidiaries and confirming the absence of MNPI therefrom and TWOLF shall provide the Lead Arrangers with a customary letter authorizing the dissemination of the Public Information Materials relating to TWOLF and its subsidiaries and confirming the absence of MNPI therefrom and, in each case, which exculpate the Companies and us and our respective affiliates with respect to any liability related to the use of the contents of the Information Materials or related marketing materials by the recipients thereof. In addition, you hereby agree that (x) you will use commercially reasonable efforts to identify (and, at the reasonable request of the Lead Arrangers or the Administrative Agent (or its affiliates), shall identify) that portion of the Information Materials that may be distributed to the Public Lenders by clearly and conspicuously marking the same as “PUBLIC”; (y) all Information Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated “Public Investor”; and (z) the Lead Arrangers and the Administrative Agent (and its affiliates) shall be entitled to treat any Information Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not designated “Public Investor.”

You agree that, subject to the confidentiality and other provisions of this Commitment Letter, the Lead Arrangers and the Administrative Agent (and its affiliates) on your behalf may distribute the following documents to all prospective Lenders, unless you advise the Lead Arrangers and Administrative Agent in

 

5


Table of Contents

writing (including by email) within a reasonable time prior to their intended distributions that such material should only be distributed to prospective Private Lenders (provided that such materials have been provided to you and your counsel for review a reasonable period of time prior thereto): (a) administrative materials for prospective Lenders such as lender meeting invitations and funding and closing memoranda, (b) notifications of changes to the terms of the Term Facility and (c) drafts approved in writing by you and the Administrative Agent (or its affiliates) and final versions of definitive documents with respect to the Term Facility. If you advise the Lead Arrangers and the Administrative Agent that any of the foregoing items should be distributed only to Private Lenders, then the Lead Arrangers and the Administrative Agent will not distribute such materials to Public Lenders without your prior consent. You agree that Information Materials made available to prospective Public Lenders in accordance with this Commitment Letter shall not contain MNPI.

4.    Fees and Indemnities.

(a)    If the Closing Date occurs, you agree to jointly and severally reimburse the Commitment Parties upon receipt of a reasonably detailed invoice therefor for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses (in the case of fees and expenses of counsel, limited to the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, disbursements and other out-of-pocket expenses of (x) one firm of lead counsel to the Commitment Parties (it being understood and agreed that Paul Hastings LLP shall act as counsel to the Commitment Parties) and (y) one firm of local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction reasonably retained by the Administrative Agent) incurred in connection with the Term Facility, the syndication thereof, the preparation of the Credit Documentation (as defined below) therefor and the other transactions contemplated hereby. You acknowledge that we may receive a benefit, including without limitation, a discount, credit or other accommodation, from any of such counsel based on the fees such counsel may receive on account of their relationship with us including, without limitation, fees paid pursuant hereto. You agree to jointly and severally pay (or cause to be paid) the fees set forth in the separate fee letter addressed to you dated the date hereof from the Commitment Parties (the “Fee Letter”) and in the Administrative Agent Fee Letter, if and to the extent payable.

(b)    You also agree to indemnify and hold harmless each of the Commitment Parties, each other Lender and each of their affiliates, successors and assigns and their respective partners, officers, directors, employees, trustees, agents, advisors, controlling persons and other representatives involved in the Transaction (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against (and will jointly and severally reimburse each Indemnified Party within 30 days following written demand (accompanied by reasonable back-up therefor)) any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including, without limitation, the reasonable and documented fees, disbursements and other charges of one firm of counsel for all such Indemnified Parties, taken as a whole and, if necessary, by a single firm of local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction (which may include a single firm of special counsel acting in multiple jurisdictions) for all such Indemnified Parties, taken as a whole (and, in the case of a conflict of interest where the Indemnified Party affected by such conflict notifies you of the existence of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel, by another firm of counsel for all such affected Indemnified Parties)) that may be incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Party, in each case arising out of or in connection with or by reason of (including, without limitation, in connection with any investigation, litigation or proceeding or preparation of a defense in connection therewith (a “Proceeding”)) (a) any aspect of this Commitment Letter, the Administrative Agent Fee Letter, the Fee Letter, the Transaction or any of the other transactions contemplated hereby or (b) the Term Facility, or any use made or proposed to be made with the proceeds thereof, in each case, except to the extent such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense (A) is found in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified Party’s (or any of its Related Party’s (as defined below)) gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct, (B) arises from a material breach of such Indemnified Party’s (or any of its Related Party’s) obligations hereunder (C) any dispute solely among Indemnified Parties which does not arise out of any act or omission by you or any of your affiliates (other than any Proceeding against any

Table of Contents

Indemnified Party solely in its capacity or in fulfilling its role as an Administrative Agent or as an arranger or similar role under the Term Facility). You shall not be liable for any settlement of any Proceeding effected by any Indemnified Party without your consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) or any other loss, claim, damage, liability and/or expense incurred in connection therewith but if any such Proceeding is settled with your written consent, or if there is a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction in any such Proceeding, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless such Indemnified Party in the manner set forth above. In the case of any Proceeding to which the indemnity in this paragraph applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such Proceeding is brought by any Company, any Company’s equity holders or creditors or an Indemnified Party, whether or not an Indemnified Party is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not any aspect of the Transaction is consummated. It is agreed that none of XRAY (or any of its subsidiaries), TWOLF (or any of its subsidiaries) or any Indemnified Party shall be liable for any indirect, special, punitive or consequential damages (including, without limitation, any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings) in connection with this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter, the Administrative Agent Fee Letter or with respect to any activities related to the Term Facility, including the preparation of this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter, the Administrative Agent Fee Letter and the Credit Documentation; provided that nothing contained in this sentence shall limit your indemnification obligations herein to the extent such indirect, special, punitive or consequential damages are included in any third-party claim in connection with which such Indemnified Party is otherwise entitled to indemnification hereunder. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Commitment Letter, no Indemnified Party shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of information or other materials obtained through electronic telecommunications or other information transmission systems, other than for direct, actual damages resulting from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party (or any of its Related Parties) as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. You shall not, without the prior written consent of an Indemnified Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened Proceeding against an Indemnified Party in respect of which indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party unless (i) such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability or claims that are the subject matter of such Proceeding and (ii) does not include any statement as to any admission of liability. In case any Proceeding is instituted involving any Indemnified Party for which indemnification is to be sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, then such Indemnified Party will promptly notify you of the commencement of any Proceedings. You shall not be liable for any settlement of any Proceeding affected without your written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), but if settled with your written consent or if there is a final judgment in any such Proceeding, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless each indemnified Party from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses by reason of such settlement or judgment in accordance with this Section. For purposes hereof, “Related Party” and “Related Parties” of any person shall mean any (or all, as the context requires) of such person’s controlled affiliates and its or their respective directors, officers, employees, partners, agents, advisors and other representatives thereof.

5.    Conditions to Financing. The commitment of each Initial Lender with respect to the funding of the Term Facility is subject solely to (a) the satisfaction (or waiver by the Lead Arrangers) of each of the conditions set forth in this paragraph and in Annex II hereto and (b) the execution and delivery of customary definitive credit documentation by the Borrower and the Guarantors with respect to the Term Facility consistent with this Commitment Letter and the Fee Letter and subject in all respects to the Funds Certain Provisions (as defined below) and giving effect to the Documentation Standard (as defined in Annex I)) (the “Credit Documentation”) prior to, or substantially concurrent with, such funding. There are no conditions (implied or otherwise) to the commitments hereunder, and there will be no conditions (implied or otherwise) under the Credit Documentation to the funding of the Term Facility on the Closing Date, other than those that are expressly referred to in the immediately preceding sentence.

Notwithstanding anything in this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter, the Administrative Agent Fee Letter, the Credit Documentation or any other letter agreement or other undertaking concerning the

ANNEX I

SUMMARY OF TERMS

$1,100,000,000 FIRST LIEN TERM FACILITY

Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein have the same meanings as specified therefor in the Commitment Letter to which this Annex I is attached.

 

Borrower:    A newly formed Delaware corporation formed at the direction of Xperi Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“XRAY”), and TiVo Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“TWOLF”), and which shall, following the consummation of the Merger, be the direct owner of XRAY and TWOLF (as survivors of the mergers contemplated by the Merger Agreement) (the “Borrower”).
Guarantors:    The obligations of the Borrower under the Term Facility (as hereinafter defined) will be guaranteed jointly and severally on a senior basis (the “Guarantees”) by XRAY, TWOLF and each of the Borrower’s other wholly-owned material restricted U.S. subsidiaries (and consistent with the principles set forth herein) (collectively, the “Guarantors”); provided that Guarantors shall not include (i) unrestricted subsidiaries, (ii) immaterial subsidiaries (to be defined in a mutually acceptable manner), (iii) any subsidiary that is prohibited, but only so long as such subsidiary would be prohibited, by applicable law, rule or regulation or by any contractual obligation existing on the Closing Date or existing at the time of acquisition thereof after the Closing Date (so long as such prohibition did not arise as part of such acquisition), in each case, from guaranteeing the Term Facility or which would require governmental (including regulatory) consent, approval, license or authorization to provide a Guarantee unless such consent, approval, license or authorization has been received (but without obligation to seek the same), (iv) any direct or indirect subsidiary of a “controlled foreign corporation” within the meaning of Section 957 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (a “CFC”), (v) any CFC, (vi) any domestic subsidiary with no material assets other than equity interests (including, for this purpose, any debt or other instrument treated as equity for U.S. federal income tax purposes) of one or more foreign subsidiaries that are CFCs (a “Disregarded Domestic Person”), (vii) not-for-profit subsidiaries, (viii) any other subsidiary with respect to which the Borrower (in consultation with the Administrative Agent) has reasonably determined that the material adverse tax consequences of providing a guarantee shall be excessive relation to of the benefits to be obtained by the Lenders therefrom, and (ix) special purpose entities. In addition, the Credit Documentation will contain carve outs for “non-ECP Guarantors” and customary “QFC” stay rules, in each case consistent with the LSTA provisions. All guarantees will be guarantees of payment and not of collection.
   Notwithstanding the foregoing, additional subsidiaries may be excluded from the guarantee requirements in circumstances where the Borrower and the Administrative Agent reasonably agree that the cost of providing such a guarantee is excessive in relation to the value afforded thereby.

 

Annex I-1


Table of Contents
Administrative and Collateral Agent:    Bank of America will act as sole and exclusive administrative and collateral agent for the Lenders (the “Administrative Agent”).
Joint Lead Arrangers and Joint Bookrunners:    BofAS, RBCCM and any Additional Arranger appointed in accordance with paragraph 1 of the Commitment Letter will act as joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunners for the Term Facility (in such capacities, the “Lead Arrangers”).
Lenders:    Banks, financial institutions and institutional lenders selected by the Lead Arrangers in consultation with and reasonably acceptable to the Borrower and excluding any Disqualified Lenders and, after the funding of the Term Facility on the Closing Date, subject to the restrictions set forth in the Assignments and Participations section below (the “Lenders”).
Type and Amount of Facility:    A first lien senior secured term loan B facility (the “Term Facility”) in an aggregate principal amount of $1,100 million.
Purpose:    Proceeds of the Term Facility will be used on the Closing Date (i) to pay fees and expenses in connection with the Transactions, (ii) to finance the Refinancing and (iii) to the extent of any remaining amounts, for working capital and other general corporate purposes.
Availability:    The Term Facility will be available in a single drawing on the Closing Date. Amounts borrowed under the Term Facility that are repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed.
Interest Rates:   

The interest rates per annum applicable to the Term Facility will be, at the option of the Borrower, (i) LIBOR plus the Applicable Margin (as hereinafter defined) or (ii) the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin. “Applicable Margin” means (x) in the event the corporate ratings of the Borrower on the Closing Date are at least Ba3 and BB- (in each case, with at least a stable outlook) from Moody’s and S&P, respectively, (i) 2.50% per annum, in the case of LIBOR advances and (ii) 1.50% per annum, in the case of Base Rate advances or (y) in the event the corporate ratings of the Borrower on the Closing Date are not at least Ba3 and BB- (in each case, with at least a stable outlook) from Moody’s and S&P, respectively, (i) 2.75% per annum, in the case of LIBOR advances, and (ii) 1.75% per annum, in the case of Base Rate advances.

 

The Borrower may select interest periods of one, two, three or six months (and, if agreed to by all applicable Lenders, a period shorter than one month or a period of twelve months) for LIBOR advances.

Maturity:    The Term Facility will mature on the date that is 7 years after the Closing Date. The Credit Documentation shall contain customary “amend and extend” provisions pursuant to which individual Lenders may agree to extend the maturity date of their outstanding loans or loans under the Term Facility or any Incremental Facility (which may include, among other things, an increase in the interest rate payable in respect of such extended loans, with such extensions not subject to any “default stoppers”, financial tests or “most favored nation” pricing provisions) upon the request of the Borrower and without the consent of any other Lender (it is understood that (i) no existing Lender will have any obligation to commit to any such extension and (ii) each Lender under the class being extended shall have the opportunity to participate in such extension on the same terms and conditions as each other Lender under such class).

Annex I-4


Table of Contents
   margins for any Incremental Term Facility are greater than the Applicable Margin for the Term Facility by more than 75 basis points, then the Applicable Margin for the Term Facility shall be increased to the extent necessary so that the interest margins for the Incremental Term Facility are not more than 75 basis points higher than the Applicable Margin for the Term Facility; provided, further, that in determining the interest margins applicable to the Term Facility and the Applicable Margins for any Incremental Term Facility, (x) original issue discount (“OID”) or upfront fees (which shall be deemed to constitute like amounts of OID) payable by the Borrower for the account of the Lenders of the Term Facility or the Incremental Term Facility in the primary syndication thereof shall be included (with OID being equated to interest based on an assumed four-year life to maturity), (y) customary arrangement, structuring, underwriting, amendment or commitment fees payable to one or more arrangers shall be excluded, and (z) if the LIBOR floor for any Incremental Term Facility is greater than the LIBOR floor for the existing Term Facility, the difference between such floor for the Incremental Term Facility and the Term Facility shall be equated to an increase in the Applicable Margin for purposes of this clause (vi) (all adjustments made pursuant to this clause (vi), the “MFN Adjustment”); provided that if any Incremental Term Facility is incurred after the date that is 6 months after the Closing Date, the MFN Adjustment shall not apply, (vii) each Incremental Facility shall be secured by pari passu liens on the Collateral (as hereinafter defined) securing the Term Facility and no other assets and shall be guaranteed by the Guarantors and no other persons, and (viii) any Incremental Facility shall be on terms and pursuant to documentation to be determined, provided that, to the extent such terms and documentation are not consistent with the Term Facility (except to the extent permitted by clause (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v) or (vi) above, as applicable), they shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. The Borrower may seek commitments in respect of any Incremental Facility from existing Lenders or from additional banks, financial institutions and other institutional lenders reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent who will become Lenders in connection therewith.
Refinancing Facilities:    The Credit Documentation will permit the Borrower to refinance loans under the Term Facility or loans under any Incremental Facility (each, “Refinanced Debt”) from time to time, in whole or part, with (x) one or more new term facilities (each, a “Refinancing Term Facility”) under the Credit Documentation or one or more new revolving credit facilities (each, a “Refinancing Revolving Facility” and, collectively with each Refinancing Term Facility, the “Refinancing Facilities”) under the Credit Documentation, in each case with the consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the institutions providing such Refinancing Facility or (y) one or more series of unsecured notes or loans, notes secured by the Collateral on a pari passu basis with the Term Facility or notes or loans secured by the Collateral on a subordinated basis to the Term Facility, which will be subject to customary intercreditor terms reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (any such notes or loans, “Refinancing Notes” and together with the Refinancing Facilities, the “Refinancing Indebtedness”); provided that

 

Annex I-5


Table of Contents
   (i) any Refinancing Indebtedness do not mature prior to the maturity date of, or have a shorter weighted average life than, the applicable Refinanced Debt (without giving effect to any amortization or prepayments on the outstanding loans under the Term Facility or loans made under any Incremental Facility, as applicable), (ii) any Refinancing Notes consisting of notes do not mature prior to the maturity date of the applicable Refinanced Debt or have any scheduled amortization, (iii) there shall be no issuers, borrowers or guarantors in respect of any Refinancing Indebtedness that are not the Borrower or a Guarantor, (iv) any Refinancing Notes shall not contain any mandatory prepayment provisions (other than related to customary asset sale and change of control offers or events of default) that could result in prepayments of such Refinancing Notes prior to the maturity date of the applicable Refinanced Debt, (v) the other terms and conditions of such Refinancing Indebtedness (excluding pricing, interest rate margins, rate floors, discounts, fees and optional prepayment or optional redemption provisions) are not materially more favorable (when taken as a whole) to the lenders or investors providing such Refinancing Indebtedness than the terms of the applicable Refinanced Debt unless (1) Lenders under the corresponding Refinanced Debt also receive the benefit of such more restrictive terms or (2) any such provisions apply after the maturity date of the Term Facility and (vi) the proceeds of such Refinancing Indebtedness (a) shall not be in an aggregate principal amount greater than the aggregate principal amount of the applicable Refinanced Debt plus any fees and premiums associated therewith, and costs and expenses related thereto and (b) shall be immediately applied to permanently prepay in whole or in part the applicable Refinanced Debt.
Documentation Standard:    The Credit Documentation for the Term Facility (i) shall be based upon the Existing XRAY Credit Agreement, as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified prior to the date hereof, with appropriate modifications to baskets and materiality thresholds to reflect the size, industry, leverage and ratings of the Borrower after giving effect to the Merger, (ii) shall contain the terms and conditions set forth in this Summary of Terms, (iii) shall reflect the operational and strategic requirements of the Borrower and its subsidiaries (after giving effect to the Merger) in light of their size, industries and practices and (iv) shall reflect the customary agency and operational requirements of the Administrative Agent (including without limitation ERISA provisions to be agreed) (collectively, the “Documentation Standard”), in each case, subject to the Funds Certain Provisions. The Credit Documentation shall, subject to the “market flex” provisions contained in the Fee Letter, contain only those conditions to borrowing, mandatory prepayments, representations and warranties, covenants and events of default expressly set forth in this Summary of Terms, in each case, applicable to the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries and, subject to the Documentation Standard and limitations as set forth herein, with materiality thresholds, standards, qualifications, exceptions, “baskets”, and grace and cure periods to be mutually agreed and consistent with the Documentation Standard.

 

Annex I-6


Table of Contents
Limited Condition Acquisitions:    For purposes of (i) determining compliance with any provision of the Credit Documentation which requires the calculation of the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio or the Total Net Leverage Ratio, (ii) determining compliance with representations, warranties, defaults or events of default or (iii) testing availability under baskets set forth in the Credit Documentation (including baskets measured as a percentage of EBITDA), in each case, in connection with an acquisition (or similar investment) by one or more of the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries of any assets, business or person permitted to be acquired by the Credit Documentation, in each case whose consummation is not conditioned on the availability of, or on obtaining, third party financing (any such acquisition, a “Limited Condition Acquisition”), at the option of the Borrower (the Borrower’s election to exercise such option in connection with any Limited Condition Acquisition, an “LCA Election”), the date of determination of whether any such action is permitted hereunder, shall be deemed to be the date the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Acquisition are entered into (the “LCA Test Date”), and if, after giving pro forma effect to the Limited Condition Acquisition and the other transactions to be entered into in connection therewith as if they had occurred at the beginning of the most recent test period ending prior to the LCA Test Date, the Borrower could have taken such action on the relevant LCA Test Date in compliance with such ratio or basket, such ratio or basket shall be deemed to have been complied with.
   For the avoidance of doubt, if the Borrower has made an LCA Election and any of the ratios or baskets for which compliance was determined or tested as of the LCA Test Date are exceeded as a result of fluctuations in any such ratio or basket (including due to fluctuations in pro forma EBITDA, including of the target of any Limited Condition Acquisition) at or prior to the consummation of the relevant transaction or action, such baskets or ratios will not be deemed to have been exceeded as a result of such fluctuations; however, if any ratios improve or baskets increase as a result of such fluctuations, such improved ratios or baskets may be utilized. If the Borrower has made an LCA Election for any Limited Condition Acquisition, then in connection with any subsequent calculation of any ratio or basket on or following the relevant LCA Test Date and prior to the earlier of (i) the date on which such Limited Condition Acquisition is consummated or (ii) the date that the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Acquisition is terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition, any such ratio or basket shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming such Limited Condition Acquisition and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence of debt and the use of proceeds thereof) have been consummated.
Financial Definitions:    The “First Lien Net Leverage Ratio” means the ratio of (i) debt for borrowed money of the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries that is secured on a senior or pari passu basis with the Term Facility (calculated net of all unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries) to (ii) trailing four-quarter EBITDA (as defined below).

 

Annex I-7


Table of Contents
   The “Total Net Leverage Ratio” means the ratio of (i) debt for borrowed money of the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries (calculated net of all unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries) to (ii) trailing four-quarter EBITDA.
   Undrawn letters of credit shall not constitute debt for purposes of calculating the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio or the Total Net Leverage Ratio.
   EBITDA” is to be defined in a manner consistent with the Documentation Standard beginning with consolidated net income, with add-backs (and corresponding deductions, to the extent applicable) to include, without limitation and without duplication, the following:
  

i.    expected cost savings, operating expense reductions, restructuring charges and expenses and synergies related to the Transaction projected by the Borrower;

  

ii.   expected cost savings, operating expense reductions, restructuring charges and expenses and synergies related to mergers and other business combinations, acquisitions, divestitures, restructuring, cost savings initiatives which are factually supportable and other similar initiatives projected by the Borrower;

  

iii.   non-cash losses, charges and expenses (including non-cash compensation charges);

  

iv.   extraordinary, unusual or non-recurring losses, charges and expenses;

  

v.   cash restructuring and related charges and business optimization expenses;

  

vi.   unrealized gains and losses due to foreign exchange adjustments (including, without limitation, losses and expenses in connection with currency and exchange rate fluctuations);

  

vii.  costs and expenses in connection with the Transaction;

  

viii.   expenses or charges related to any equity offering, permitted investment, acquisition, disposition, recapitalization or incurrence of permitted indebtedness (whether or not consummated), including non-operating or non-recurring professional fees, costs and expenses related thereto;

  

ix.   interest, taxes, amortization and depreciation; and

  

x.   losses from discontinued operations.

Scheduled Amortization:    The Term Facility shall be subject to quarterly amortization of principal equal to 0.25% of the original aggregate principal amount of the Term Facility, commencing on the last day of the first full fiscal quarter following the Closing Date, with the balance payable on the final maturity date.

 

Annex I-8


Table of Contents
Mandatory Prepayments:    In addition to the amortization set forth above and subject to the next two paragraphs, mandatory prepayments required with respect to the Term Facility shall be limited to: (i) subject to customary exceptions and thresholds (with exceptions for, among others, ordinary course dispositions, dispositions of obsolete or worn-out property, property no longer used or useful in the business and other exceptions to be mutually agreed), an amount equal to 100% (with step-downs to 25% at a First Lien Net Leverage Ratio no greater than 0.50x inside the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio as of the Closing Date and 0% at a First Lien Net Leverage Ratio no greater than 1.00x inside the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio as of the Closing Date) of the amount of net cash proceeds received by the Borrower or any of its restricted subsidiaries in excess of an amount to be mutually agreed (and only in respect of amounts in excess thereof) from any disposition of assets outside the ordinary course of business or casualty event by the Borrower or any of its restricted subsidiaries, in each case, to the extent such proceeds are not reinvested (or committed to be reinvested) in the business of the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries within twelve months after the date of receipt of such proceeds from such disposition or casualty event and, if so committed to be reinvested, reinvested no later than 180 days after the end of such twelve month period; (ii) following the receipt of net cash proceeds from the issuance or incurrence after the Closing Date of additional debt of the Borrower or any of its restricted subsidiaries (other than debt permitted under the Credit Documentation (other than Refinancing Indebtedness)); and (iii) in an amount equal to 50% of annual Excess Cash Flow (to be defined in the Credit Documentation) of the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries for each fiscal year of the Borrower (beginning with the first full fiscal year commencing after the Closing Date), with step downs to 25% at a First Lien Net Leverage Ratio no greater than 0.50x inside the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio as of the Closing Date and 0% at a First Lien Net Leverage Ratio no greater than 1.00x inside the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio as of the Closing Date, of the Borrower (with a dollar-for-dollar credit for optional prepayments of the Term Facility subsequent to the first day of the relevant year other than to the extent financed with long-term debt); provided that no mandatory prepayment shall be required with respect to any fiscal year pursuant to this clause (iii) to the extent such prepayment would not exceed $10 million, in each case of clauses (i) through (iii), subject to the limitations set forth in the paragraph immediately following, such amounts shall be applied, without premium or penalty, to the remaining amortization payments under the Term Facility in direct order of maturity.
   Any Lender under the Term Facility may elect not to accept its pro rata portion of any mandatory prepayment other than a prepayment made with the proceeds of a Refinancing Debt (each a “Declining Lender”). Any prepayment amount declined by a Declining Lender may be retained by the Borrower (such amount, a “Declined Amount”) and shall increase the Available Amount Basket (as defined below).

 

Annex I-9


Table of Contents
   Mandatory prepayments in clauses (i) and (iii) above shall be limited to the extent the upstreaming or transfer of such amounts from a foreign subsidiary to the Borrower or any other applicable subsidiary would result in material adverse tax consequences until such time as the Borrower or its applicable subsidiary may upstream or transfer such amounts and shall be subject to permissibility under local law of upstreaming proceeds (including financial assistance and corporate benefit restrictions and fiduciary and statutory duties of the relevant directors). The non-application of any mandatory prepayment amounts as a consequence of the foregoing provisions will not, for the avoidance of doubt, constitute a default or an event of default, and such amounts shall be available for working capital purposes of the Borrower and its subsidiaries.
Optional Prepayments:    The Term Facility may be prepaid at any time in whole or in part without premium or penalty, upon written notice, at the option of the Borrower, except (x) that any prepayment of LIBOR advances other than at the end of the applicable interest periods therefor shall be made with customary reimbursement for any funding losses and redeployment costs (but not loss of margin) of the Lenders resulting therefrom and (y) as set forth in “Soft-Call Premium” below. Each optional prepayment of the Term Facility shall be applied as directed by the Borrower (and absent such direction, in direct order of maturity thereof).
Soft-Call Premium:    In the event that all or any portion of the Term Facility is (i) repaid, prepaid, refinanced or replaced with any broadly syndicated term loan “B” indebtedness with the primary purpose (as determined by the Borrower in good faith) of reducing the effective yield (to be defined in a mutually agreeable manner) of such Term Facility or (ii) repriced through any waiver, consent or amendment that has the primary purpose (as determined by the Borrower in good faith) of reducing the effective yield of the Term Facility (a “Repricing Transaction”), in each case, prior to the six-month anniversary of the Closing Date and other than in connection with (x) a change of control, (y) a material disposition or a material acquisition or other similar material investment or (z) any other transaction not otherwise permitted by the Credit Documentation, such repayment, prepayment, refinancing, replacement or repricing will be accompanied by a premium of 1% of the principal amount so repaid, prepaid, refinanced, replaced or repriced. If all or any portion of the Term Facility held by any Lender is required to be assigned pursuant to a “yank-a-bank” provision in the Credit Documentation as a result of, or in connection with a Repricing Transaction prior to the six-month anniversary of the Closing Date, such Lender not agreeing or otherwise consenting to any waiver, consent or amendment referred to in clause (ii) above (or otherwise in connection with a Repricing Transaction), such replacement will be accompanied by a premium equal to 1% of the principal amount so required to be assigned.
Security:    Subject to the Funds Certain Provisions, the Borrower and each of the Guarantors shall grant the Administrative Agent (for its benefit and for the

 

Annex I-10

  benefit of the Lenders) a first-priority (subject to permitted liens and other customary exceptions) security interest in (i) 100% of the equity interests held by the Borrower and the Guarantors (but limited in the case of the voting equity interests of any first-tier CFC or Disregarded Domestic Person, to 65% of such voting equity interests (and 100% of any non-voting equity interests) and none of the equity interests of any subsidiary thereof), (ii) substantially all material owned real property of the Borrower and the Guarantors located in the United States and (iii) substantially all other personal property of the Borrower and the Guarantors, including, without limitation, contracts, patents, copyrights, trademarks, other general intangibles and all proceeds of the foregoing, in each case, excluding the Excluded Assets (as defined below) (collectively, but excluding the Excluded Assets (as defined below), the “Collateral”).
  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Collateral shall exclude the following: (i) any fee-owned real property located outside the United States or with a fair market value of less than an amount to be agreed (with all required mortgages being permitted to be delivered post-closing) and all leasehold interests in real property (it being understood there shall be no requirement to obtain any survey, landlord or other third party waivers, estoppels or collateral access letters); (ii) motor vehicles, aircrafts and other assets subject to certificates of title (except to the extent perfection can be accomplished through the filing of UCC-1 financing statements); (iii) letter of credit rights (except to the extent perfection can be accomplished through the filing of UCC-1 financing statements) and commercial tort claims with a value of less than an amount to be agreed; (iv) pledges and security interests prohibited by applicable law, rule or regulation (including the requirement to obtain consent of any governmental authority) after giving effect to the applicable anti-assignment provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code, other than proceeds and receivables thereof, the assignment of which is expressly deemed effective under the Uniform Commercial Code notwithstanding such prohibition; (v) equity interests in any person other than wholly-owned subsidiaries to the extent not permitted by the terms of such person’s organizational or joint venture documents after giving effect to the applicable anti-assignment provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code, other than proceeds and receivables thereof, the assignment of which is expressly deemed effective under the Uniform Commercial Code notwithstanding such prohibition; (vi) any lease, permit, license or other agreement or any property subject to a purchase money security interest or other arrangement to the extent that a grant of a security interest therein would violate or invalidate such lease, permit, license or agreement or arrangement or create a right of termination in favor of, or require the consent of, any other party thereto (other than the Borrower or any of its restricted subsidiaries) after giving effect to the applicable anti-assignment provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code, other than proceeds and receivables thereof, the assignment of which is expressly deemed effective under the Uniform Commercial Code notwithstanding such prohibition; (vii) those assets as to which the Administrative Agent and the Borrower reasonably agree that the cost of obtaining such a security interest or perfection thereof are excessive in relation to the benefit to the Lenders of

  the security to be afforded thereby; (viii) voting equity interests in excess of 65% of any first tier CFC or Disregarded Domestic Person; (ix) any of the equity interests of a subsidiary of a CFC or Disregarded Domestic Person; (x) any governmental licenses or state or local franchises, charters and authorizations, to the extent security interests in such licenses, franchises, charters or authorizations are prohibited or restricted thereby after giving effect to the applicable anti-assignment provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code; (xi) “intent-to-use” trademark or service mark applications; (xii) (a) payroll and other employee wage and benefit accounts, (b) sales tax accounts, (c) escrow accounts for the benefit of unaffiliated third parties, and (d) fiduciary or trust accounts for the benefit of unaffiliated third parties, and, in the case of clauses (a) through (d), the funds or other property held in or maintained in any such account in each case, other than to the extent perfected by the filing of a UCC financing statement or are proceeds of Collateral (collectively, the “Excluded Accounts”); (xiii) any acquired property (including property acquired through acquisition or merger of another entity) if at the time of such acquisition the granting of a security interest therein or the pledge thereof is prohibited by any contract or other agreement (in each case, not created in contemplation thereof) to the extent and for so long as such contract or other agreement prohibits such security interest or pledge after giving effect to the applicable anti-assignment provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code, other than proceeds and receivables thereof, the assignment of which is expressly deemed effective under the Uniform Commercial Code notwithstanding such prohibition; (xiv) equity interests issued by, or assets of, unrestricted subsidiaries, immaterial subsidiaries, not for profit subsidiaries, special purpose entities and captive insurance subsidiaries; (xv) margin stock, and (xvi) other exceptions to be mutually agreed upon (the foregoing described in clauses (i) through (xvi) are, collectively, the “Excluded Assets”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Borrower and the Guarantors shall not be required, nor shall the Administrative Agent be authorized, (i) to perfect the above-described pledges, security interests and mortgages by any means other than by (A) filings pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code in the office of the secretary of state (or similar central filing office) of the relevant state(s) and filings in the applicable real estate records with respect to mortgaged properties constituting Collateral or any fixtures relating to mortgaged properties constituting Collateral, (B) filings in United States government offices with respect to intellectual property as expressly required in the Credit Documentation, (C) delivery to the Administrative Agent for its possession of all Collateral consisting of material intercompany notes, stock (or equivalent) certificates of material wholly-owned restricted subsidiaries and material instruments issued to the Borrower or a Guarantor (excluding Excluded Assets) or (D) mortgages in respect of fee-owned real property located in the United States (excluding Excluded Assets) with a fair market value in excess of an amount to be mutually agreed between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, in each case as expressly required in the Credit Documentation and subject to limitations and restrictions in respect of flood provisions to be agreed in accordance with the internal flood policies and procedures of the Administrative Agent, (ii) other than as set forth in clause (C) of this

All the above-described pledges, security interests and mortgages shall be created on terms, and pursuant to documentation, subject to the Documentation Standard and the Funds Certain Provisions and reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower. Assets will be excluded from the Collateral in circumstances to be agreed and in circumstances where the Administrative Agent reasonably determines in consultation with the Borrower that the cost of obtaining a security interest in such assets is excessive in relation to the value afforded thereby, and in any event such exclusions shall include vehicles, trust, payroll and escrow accounts, certain leasehold interests in real property (except as noted above), assets subject to capital leases and purchase money arrangements, cash which secures permitted letters of credit, assets held in jurisdictions outside the U.S. (solely to the extent action would be required in such other jurisdictions to obtain such security interests) and assets sold in accordance with the Credit Documentation.

Events of Default:    Subject to the Documentation Standard, with thresholds and grace periods to be mutually agreed, events of default shall be limited to the following (to be applicable to the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries): (i) (a) nonpayment of principal and (b) nonpayment of interest or fees and nonpayment of other amounts (with a five (5) business day grace period for interest, fees and other amounts); (ii) any representation or warranty proving to have been inaccurate in any material respect when made or confirmed; (iii) failure to perform or observe covenants set forth in the Credit Documentation (subject, in the case of affirmative covenants, to a grace period of 30 days following written notice from the Administrative Agent (other than in respect of maintenance of the Borrower’s existence and notices of default)); (iv) cross-defaults and cross-acceleration to other indebtedness above an amount to be agreed; (v) bankruptcy and insolvency defaults with respect to the Borrower and its material restricted subsidiaries; (vi) monetary judgment defaults to the extent not paid or covered by indemnities or insurance above an amount to be mutually agreed; (vii) actual or asserted impairment of the Guarantee or security with respect to a material portion of the Collateral; (viii) Change of Control with respect to the Borrower (to be defined in a customary and mutually agreeable reasonable manner); and (ix) ERISA events.

Assignments and

Participations:

   Each Lender will be permitted to make assignments in minimum amounts to be agreed to other entities approved by (x) the Administrative Agent and (y) so long as no payment or bankruptcy default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower, each such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, however, that (i) no approval of the Borrower shall be required in connection with assignments to other Lenders or any of their affiliates or approved funds, (ii) the Borrower shall be deemed to have given consent to an assignment if the Borrower shall have failed to respond to a written request within a number of business days to be agreed of its receipt of such written request and (iii) no approval of the Administrative Agent shall be required in connection with

 

Annex I-17

   assignments to other Lenders or any of their affiliates or approved funds. Each Lender will also have the right, without consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, to assign as security all or part of its rights under the Credit Documentation to any Federal Reserve Bank. Lenders will be permitted to sell participations with voting rights limited to customary significant matters. An assignment fee in the amount of $3,500 will be charged with respect to each assignment unless waived by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no loans or commitments shall be assigned or participated to Disqualified Lenders to the extent the list of Disqualified Lenders has been made available to all Lenders.
   The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions hereof relating to Disqualified Lenders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not (x) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender or Participant or prospective Lender or Participant is a Disqualified Institution or (y) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of Loans, or disclosure of confidential information, to any Disqualified Lender.
   Assignments of loans under the Term Facility to the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries shall be permitted on a non-pro rata basis through open market purchases and/or Dutch auctions subject to satisfaction of conditions to be set forth in the Credit Documentation, including that (i) no event of default shall exist or result therefrom and (ii) upon the effectiveness of any such assignment, such loans shall be immediately and permanently retired.
Waivers and Amendments:    Amendments and waivers of the provisions of the Credit Documentation will require the approval of Lenders holding more than 50% of the aggregate Term Facility (the “Required Lenders”), except that (a) the consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby will also be required with respect to (i) increases in commitment amount of such Lender, (ii) reductions of principal, interest, or fees payable to such Lender (other than waivers of default interest, a default or event of default or mandatory prepayment); provided that any change in the definitions of any ratio used in the calculation of any rate of interest or fees (or the component definitions) shall not constitute a reduction in any rate of interest or fees, (iii) extensions of scheduled maturities or times for payment of amounts payable to such Lender (it being understood and agreed that the amendment or waiver of any mandatory prepayment, waiver of default interest, default or event of default shall only require the consent of the Required Lenders) and (iv) changes in certain pro rata provisions and the waterfall from enforcement and (b) the consent of each Lender shall be required with respect to (i) releases of all or substantially all of the Collateral or the release of all or substantially all of the value of any guaranties (other than in connection with permitted asset sales, dispositions, mergers, liquidations or dissolutions or as otherwise permitted under the Credit Documentation) and (ii) the percentage contained in the definition of Required Lenders or other voting provisions.

 

Annex I-18

   In connection with any proposed amendment, modification, waiver or termination (a “Proposed Change”) requiring the consent of all Lenders or all directly and adversely affected Lenders, if the consent to such Proposed Change of other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained (but the consent of the Required Lenders or Lenders holding more than 50% of the directly and adversely affected facility, as applicable, is obtained) (any such Lender whose consent is not obtained being referred to as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then the Borrower may, at its option and at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Non-Consenting Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Non-Consenting Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to customary restrictions on assignment), all its interests, rights and obligations under the Credit Documentation to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that, such Non-Consenting Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts then due and owing to it under the Credit Documentation (at the option of the Borrower, with respect to the class or classes of loans or commitments subject to such Proposed Change) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts). The Credit Documentation shall contain other customary “yank-a-bank” provisions.
Indemnification:    The Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers and the Lenders and their respective affiliates and controlling persons and their respective officers, directors, employees, partners, agents, advisors and other representatives (each, an “indemnified person”) will be indemnified for and held harmless against, any losses, claims, damages and liabilities (it being understood that any such losses, claims, damages or liabilities that consist of legal fees and/or expenses shall be limited to the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, disbursements and other charges of one firm of counsel for all such indemnified persons, taken as a whole and, if necessary, by a single firm of local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction (which may include a single firm of special counsel acting in multiple jurisdictions) for all such indemnified persons, taken as a whole (and, in the case of a conflict of interest where the indemnified person affected by such conflict notifies the Borrower of the existence of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel, by another firm of counsel for all such affected indemnified persons)) incurred in respect of the Credit Documentation, the Term Facility or the use or the proposed use of proceeds thereof, the Transaction or any other transactions contemplated hereby, except to the extent they arise from the (a) bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of, or material breach of the Credit Documentation by, such indemnified person (or any of its affiliates or any of its or their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, representatives and controlling persons’), or (b) material breach of such indemnified persons’ (or any of its controlled affiliates’ or any of its officers’, directors’, employees’, agents’, advisors’,

   representatives’ and controlling persons’) obligations under the Credit Documentation, in each case as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or (c) any dispute solely among the indemnified persons (or any of their respective controlled affiliates or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, representatives and controlling persons) (other than any claims against an indemnified person in its capacity as the Administrative Agent or Lead Arranger or similar role under the Term Facility) and not arising out of any act or omission of the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each indemnified person shall be obligated to promptly refund and return any and all amounts paid by the Borrower under this paragraph to such indemnified person for any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses to the extent such indemnified person is not entitled to payment of such amounts in accordance with the terms hereof.

The Borrower will also pay the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent and one other counsel (in total) to all of the Lenders (in the absence of conflict) in connection with the enforcement of any of the Credit Documentation.

ANNEX III

SOLVENCY CERTIFICATE2

[            ], 2020

This SOLVENCY CERTIFICATE (this “Certificate”) is delivered in connection with that certain Credit Agreement dated as of [            ], 2020 (as amended, supplemented, amended and restated, replaced, or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”) among XRAY-TWOLF HoldCo Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent and collateral agent, the financial institutions from time to time party thereto as lenders and the other parties thereto. Capitalized terms used herein without definition have the same meanings as in the Credit Agreement.

In my capacity as the [chief financial officer/equivalent officer] of the Borrower, and not in my individual or personal capacity (and without personal liability), I hereby certify on behalf of the Borrower that as of the date hereof and after giving effect to the Transactions and the incurrence of indebtedness and obligations incurred in connection with the Credit Agreement and the Transactions on the date hereof that:

1.    Company (as used herein “Company” means the Borrower and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole) is not now, nor will the incurrence of the obligations under the Credit Agreement and the consummation of the Merger on the Closing Date (and after giving effect to the application of the proceeds of the Loans), on a pro forma basis, render Company “insolvent” as defined in this paragraph; in this context, “insolvent” means that (i) the fair value of assets (on a going concern basis) of the Company is less than the amount that will be required to pay the total liability on existing debts as they become absolute and matured, (ii) the present fair salable value of assets (on a going concern basis) of the Company is less than the amount that will be required to pay the probable liability on existing debts as they become absolute and matured in the ordinary course of business, or (iii) the Company ceases to pay its current obligations in the ordinary course of business as they generally become due, or (iv) the Company’s aggregate property is not, at a fair valuation, sufficient, or if disposed of at a fairly conducted sale under legal process, would not be, sufficient to enable payment of all obligations, due and accruing due. The term “debts” as used in this Certificate includes any legal liability, whether matured or unmatured, liquidated or unliquidated, absolute, fixed or contingent and “values of assets” shall mean the amount of which the assets (both tangible and intangible) in their entirety would change hands between a willing buyer and a willing seller, with a commercially reasonable period of time, each having reasonable knowledge of the relevant facts, with neither being under compulsion to act.

2.    The incurrence of the obligations under the Credit Agreement and the consummation of the other Transactions on the Closing Date (and after giving effect to the application of the proceeds of the Loans), on a pro forma basis, will not leave Company with property remaining in its hands constituting “unreasonably small capital.” I understand that “unreasonably small capital” depends upon the nature of the particular business or businesses conducted or to be conducted, and I have reached my conclusion

Defined terms to be aligned with those in the definitive Credit Agreement, but consistent with this form of solvency certificate.

based on my current assumptions regarding the needs and anticipated needs for capital of the businesses conducted or anticipated to be conducted by Company in light of projected financial statements and available credit capacity, which current assumption I do not believe to be unreasonable in light of the circumstances applicable thereto.
