|
|
(b)

|
|
(c)
|
At the Initial Effective Time (after giving effect to the Remix Preferred Stock Conversion and the Remix Convertible Notes
Conversion), by virtue of the First Merger and without any further action on the part of Passage, Merger Sub, Remix or any stockholder of Remix, subject to Section 2.4(e), the Remix Common Stock outstanding immediately prior
to the Initial Effective Time (excluding (i) Remix Common Stock issued in the Concurrent Financing, (ii) Remix Common Stock held by Remix as treasury stock or by Passage or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries as of immediately
prior to the Initial Effective Time (“Remix Treasury Shares”) and (iii) Dissenting Remix Shares) shall be converted solely into the right to receive a number of shares of Passage Common Stock

subject to a repurchase option or a risk of forfeiture under any applicable restricted stock, restricted stock unit award agreement or other similar agreement with Remix, then the shares of Passage Common Stock issued in exchange for
such Remix Common Stock will to the same extent be unvested and subject to the same repurchase option or risk of forfeiture.
|
|
(d)
|
At the Initial Effective Time, by virtue of the First Merger and without further action on the part of Passage, Merger Sub,

Certificate and (ii) the Remix Treasury Shares will automatically be cancelled and extinguished without any conversion thereof or consideration paid therefor.
|
|
(e)
|
No fractional shares of Passage Common Stock shall be issued in connection with the First Merger, and no certificates or
scrip for any such fractional shares shall be issued, with no cash being paid for any fractional share eliminated by such rounding. Any fractional shares of Passage Common Stock a holder of Remix Common Stock would otherwise be
entitled to receive shall be aggregated together first prior to eliminating any remaining fractional share.
|
|
(f)
|
At the Initial Effective Time, by virtue of the First Merger and without any further action on the part of Passage, Merger
Sub, Remix or any stockholder of Remix, each share of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Initial Effective Time shall be converted into and exchanged for one validly
issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, of the Surviving Corporation. If applicable, each stock certificate of Merger Sub evidencing ownership of any such shares shall, as of the
Initial Effective Time, evidence ownership of such shares of common stock of the Surviving Corporation until presented for transfer or exchange.
|
|
(g)
|
If, between the date of this Agreement and the Initial Effective Time, the outstanding Remix Common Stock or Passage Common
Stock shall have been changed into, or exchanged for, a different number of shares or a different class, by reason of any stock dividend, subdivision, reclassification, recapitalization, split, combination (including the effects of
the Reverse Stock Split and the filing the Amended and Restated Passage Charter, to the extent the effects of the Reverse Stock Split and the effects of filing the Amended and Restated Passage Charter have not previously been taken

Each Remix Option outstanding immediately prior to the Initial Effective Time and held by a Remix Service Provider shall
automatically without any further action on the part of Passage, Merger Sub, Remix or any holder of a Remix Option, be converted, at the Initial Effective Time, into an option (an “Assumed Option”)
to acquire, on the same terms and conditions (including the same vesting and exercisability terms and conditions) as were applicable under the Remix Equity Plan and option agreement applicable to such Remix Option immediately prior to
the Initial Effective Time, the number of shares of Passage Common Stock determined by multiplying the number of shares of Remix Common Stock subject to such Remix Option immediately prior to the Initial Effective Time by the Remix
Exchange Ratio, rounding down to the nearest whole number of shares, at a per share exercise price determined by dividing the per share exercise price of such Remix Option immediately prior to the Initial Effective Time by the Remix
Exchange Ratio, rounding up to the nearest whole cent; provided that the conversion of the Remix Options will be made in a manner consistent with Treasury Regulations Section 1.424-1, such
that the conversion will not constitute a “modification” of such Remix Options for purposes of Section 409A or Section 424 of the Code. As of the Initial Effective Time, Passage will assume the Remix Equity Plan.
|
|
(i)
|
At the Initial Effective Time, by virtue of the First Merger, and without any further action on the part of Passage, Merger
Sub, Remix or any holder of a Remix Warrant, each Remix Warrant that is issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Initial Effective Time shall cease to represent a right to acquire shares of Remix Common Stock and shall be
converted solely into a warrant to purchase shares of Passage Common Stock (an “Assumed Warrant”), on the same terms and conditions (including any vesting provisions and any provisions providing
for accelerated vesting upon certain events) as were applicable under such Assumed Warrant as of immediately prior to the Initial Effective Time. The number of shares of Passage Common Stock subject to each such Assumed Warrant shall
be equal to the amount of Remix Merger Shares multiplied by the applicable stockholder’s percentage interest in Remix Outstanding Shares as set forth on the Allocation Certificate, and such Assumed Warrant shall have an exercise price
per share as set forth on the Allocation Certificate.

shares of Passage Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the assumed Remix Options and will use reasonable best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of registration statement thereafter for so long as any of such Remix Options
remain outstanding.

without any conversion thereof or consideration paid therefor.

Contingent Value Right.
|
|
(a)
|
Prior to the Initial Effective Time, Passage shall declare a distribution (the “Pre-Closing
Distribution”) of contingent value rights (each, a “CVR”) to the holders of record of Passage Common Stock as of the record date for the Pre-Closing Distribution. Each such holder shall
be entitled to receive one CVR for each outstanding share of Passage Common Stock held by such holder as of such date (less applicable withholding Taxes). Each CVR shall represent the right to receive contingent payments upon the
occurrence of certain events set forth in, and subject to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of, the Contingent Value Rights Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G, to be entered into between
Passage and Computershare Trust Company, N.A. (or such other nationally recognized rights agent agreed to between Passage and Remix) (the “Rights Agent”), with such revisions thereto requested
by the Rights Agent that are not, individually or in the aggregate, materially detrimental to the holders of CVRs and reasonably acceptable to Passage and Remix (the “CVR Agreement”). The record
date for the Pre-Closing Distribution shall be the close of business on the last Business Day prior to the day on which the Initial Effective Time occurs and the payment date for the Pre-Closing Distribution shall be three (3)
Business Days after the Initial Effective Time; provided that the payment of such distribution may be conditioned upon the occurrence of the Initial Effective Time. In connection with the
Pre-Closing Distribution, Passage shall cause the CVR Agreement to be duly authorized, executed and delivered by Passage and the Exchange Agent.

prior to the Initial Effective Time shall be treated in accordance with Section 2.4(c) and Section 2.4(d), as applicable, and all holders of certificates representing Remix Common Stock that were outstanding
immediately prior to the Initial Effective Time shall cease to have any rights as stockholders of Remix (other than the right to receive Remix Merger Shares or, in the case of Dissenting Remix Shares, the rights pursuant to Section 2.11)
and (b) the stock transfer books of Remix shall be closed with respect to all Remix Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Initial Effective Time. No further transfer of any such Remix Common Stock shall be made on such
stock transfer books after the Initial Effective Time.
|
|
2.7
|
Surrender of Remix Common Stock.
|
|
(a)
|
On or prior to the Closing Date, Passage and Remix shall jointly select a reputable bank, transfer agent or trust company
to act as exchange agent in the First Merger (the “Exchange Agent”). At the Initial Effective Time, Passage shall deposit with the Exchange Agent evidence of book-entry shares representing the
shares of Passage Common Stock issuable pursuant to Section 2.4(c) and Section 2.4(d), as applicable, in exchange for Remix Common Stock.
|
|
(b)
|
Promptly after the Initial Effective Time, the Parties shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to the Persons who were
record holders of Remix Common Stock that were converted into the right to receive Remix Merger Shares: (i) a letter of transmittal in customary form and containing such provisions as Passage may reasonably specify and (ii)
instructions for effecting the surrender of Remix Common Stock in exchange for book-entry shares of Passage Common Stock. Upon delivery of a duly executed letter of transmittal and such other documents as may be reasonably required by
the Exchange Agent or Passage, the holder of such Remix Common Stock shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor book-entry shares representing Remix Merger Shares (in a number of whole shares of Passage Common Stock) that such
holder has the right to receive pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.4(c) and Section 2.4(d), as applicable.
|
|
(c)
|
No dividends or other distributions declared or made with respect to Passage Common Stock with a record date after the
Initial Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any Remix Common Stock with respect to the shares of Passage Common Stock that such holder has the right to receive in the First Merger until such holder delivers a duly executed
letter of transmittal (at which time (or, if later, on the applicable payment date) such holder shall be entitled, subject to the effect of applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Laws, to receive all such dividends and
distributions, without interest).
|
|
(d)
|
Any shares of Passage Common Stock deposited with the Exchange Agent that remain undistributed to holders of Remix Common
Stock as of the date that is 180 days after the Closing Date shall be delivered to
|
|
(e)
|
No Party shall be liable to any holder of any Remix Common Stock or to any other Person with respect to any shares of
Passage Common Stock (or dividends or distributions with respect thereto) or for any cash amounts delivered to any public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property Law, escheat Law or similar Law.
|
|
2.8
|
Calculation of Net Cash.
|
|
(a)
|
Not less than ten (10) Business Days prior to the anticipated date for Closing as mutually agreed to in good faith by
Passage and Remix (the “Anticipated Closing Date”), Passage will deliver to Remix a schedule (the “Passage Net Cash Schedule”, and the date of delivery of
the Passage Net Cash Schedule, the “Delivery Date”) setting forth, in reasonable detail, Passage’s good faith, estimated calculation of Passage Net Cash (the “Passage
Net Cash Calculation”) as of the close of business on the Closing Date (the “Cash Determination Time”) prepared and certified by Passage’s chief financial officer (or if there is no
chief financial officer at such time, the principal financial and accounting officer for Passage). Passage shall make available to Remix (electronically to the greatest extent possible), as reasonably requested by Remix, the work
papers and back-up materials used or useful in preparing the Passage Net Cash Schedule (including, with respect to Transaction Expenses, estimated final invoices and current accounts receivable from each advisor to Passage) and, if
reasonably requested by Remix, Passage’s accountants and counsel at reasonable times and upon reasonable notice. The Passage Net Cash Calculation shall include Passage’s determination, as of the Cash Determination Time, of the defined
terms in Section 1.1 necessary to calculate Remix Merger Shares. Set forth on Section 2.8(a) of the Passage Disclosure Schedule is an illustrative example of a Passage Net Cash calculation calculated on a hypothetical
basis as of the date described therein.
|
|
(b)
|
Within five (5) Business Days after the Delivery Date (the last day of such period, the “Response
Date”), Remix shall have the right to dispute any part of the Passage Net Cash Calculation by delivering a written notice to that effect to Passage (a “Dispute Notice”). Any Dispute
Notice shall identify in reasonable detail, to the extent known, the nature and amounts of any proposed revisions to the Passage Net Cash Calculation.
|
|
(c)
|
If, on or prior to the Response Date, Remix notifies Passage in writing that it has no objections to the Passage Net Cash
Calculation or, if prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Response Date, Remix has failed to deliver a Dispute Notice as provided in Section 2.8(b), then the Passage Net Cash Calculation as set forth in the Passage Net
Cash Schedule shall be deemed to have been finally determined for purposes of this Agreement and to represent the Passage Net Cash at the Cash Determination Time (the “Final Passage Net Cash”)
for purposes of this Agreement.
|
|
(d)
|
If Remix delivers a Dispute Notice on or prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Response Date, then Representatives
of Passage and Remix shall promptly, and in no event later than one calendar day after the Response Date, meet and attempt in good faith to resolve the disputed item(s) and negotiate an agreed-upon determination of Passage Net Cash,
which agreed upon Passage Net Cash amount shall be deemed to have been finally determined for purposes of this Agreement and to represent the Final Passage Net Cash for purposes of this Agreement.
|
|
(e)
|
If Representatives of Passage and Remix are unable to negotiate an agreed-upon determination of Final Passage Net Cash
pursuant to Section 2.8(d) within two (2) calendar days after delivery of the Dispute Notice (or such other period as Passage and Remix may mutually agree upon), then any remaining disagreements as to the calculation of
Passage Net Cash shall be referred to an independent auditor of recognized national standing jointly selected by Passage and Remix or another independent auditor of recognized national standing mutually agreed upon by Passage and
Remix (the “Accounting Firm”). Passage shall promptly deliver to the Accounting Firm all work papers and back-up materials used in preparing the Passage Net Cash Schedule, and Passage and Remix
shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Accounting Firm to make its determination within five (5) calendar days of accepting its selection. Passage and Remix shall be afforded the opportunity to present to the
Accounting Firm any material related to the unresolved disputes and to discuss the issues with the Accounting Firm; provided, however, that no such
presentation or discussion shall occur without the presence of a Representative of each of Passage and Remix. The determination of the
|
|
2.9
|
Further Action. If, at any time after the Initial Effective Time, any further action is determined by the Surviving
Company to be necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement or to vest the Surviving Company with full right, title and possession of and to all rights and property of Remix, then the officers and managers of the
Surviving Company shall be fully authorized, and shall use their commercially reasonable efforts (in the name of Remix, in the name of Merger Sub, in the name of Merger Sub II, in the name of the Surviving Corporation, in the name of
the Surviving Company and otherwise) to take such action.
|
|
2.10
|
Withholding. Each of the Exchange Agent, Passage and the Surviving Corporation and any other applicable withholding
agent (each, a “Withholding Agent”) shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration deliverable pursuant to this Agreement (including the Pre-Closing Distribution) such amounts
as are required to be deducted or withheld from such consideration under the Code or under any other applicable Law; provided, however, that if a
Withholding Agent determines that any payment in connection with the Contemplated Transactions is subject to deduction and/or withholding, then, except with respect to compensatory payments, the Pre-Closing Distribution or as a result
of a failure to deliver the certificate described in Section 5.16(b), such Withholding Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) provide reasonable advance notice to such recipient of any required deduction or
withholding and (ii) reasonably cooperate with such recipient to reduce or eliminate any such deduction and/or withholding. To the extent such amounts are so deducted or withheld, such amounts shall be (i) timely remitted to the
appropriate Governmental Authority, and (ii) treated for all purposes under this Agreement as having been paid to the Person to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid.

Statutory Rights of Appraisal.
|
|
(a)
|
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, if required by Delaware Law (but only to the extent
required thereby), all shares of Remix Common Stock that are issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Initial Effective Time (other than the Remix Treasury Shares) and held by any Person (or beneficially owned by a
“beneficial owner” of shares of Remix Common Stock held either in a voting trust or by a nominee on behalf of the beneficial owner) who has neither voted in favor of the First Merger nor consented thereto in writing and who is
entitled to demand and has properly and validly exercised their statutory rights of appraisal in respect of such shares of Remix Common Stock in accordance with Section 262 of Delaware Law (collectively, the “Dissenting Remix Shares”) will not be converted into, or represent the right to receive, the shares of Passage Common Stock that such holder has the right to receive in the First Merger pursuant to Section 2.4.
Holders or beneficial owners of Dissenting Remix Shares will be entitled to receive payment of the appraised value of such Dissenting Remix Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 262 of Delaware Law (it being understood
and acknowledged that such Dissenting Remix Shares shall no longer be outstanding, shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and such holder or beneficial owner shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto
other than the right to receive the appraised value of such Dissenting Remix Shares to the extent afforded by Section 262 of Delaware Law), except that all Dissenting Remix Shares held or beneficially owned by any Person who shall
|
|
(b)

Remix will give Passage prompt notice of any demands for appraisal received by Remix, withdrawals of such demands and any

negotiations with, any Person in response to a bona fide written Acquisition Proposal of Passage which the Passage Board determines in good faith, after consultation with Passage’s financial advisors and outside legal counsel,

Board concludes in good faith based on the advice of outside legal counsel, that the failure to take such action would reasonably be expected to result in a breach of the fiduciary duties of the Passage Board under applicable Law, (C)
Passage gives Remix prior written notice of Passage’s intention to furnish non-public information to, or enter into discussions with, such Person, (D) Passage receives from such Person an executed Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement
and (E) substantially concurrently with furnishing any such non-public information to such Person, Passage furnishes such non-public information to Remix (to the extent such information has not been previously furnished by Passage to
Remix). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Passage acknowledges and agrees that, in the event any Representative of Passage takes any action in its capacity as a Representative of Passage that, if taken by Passage,
would constitute a breach of Section 5.4(a) by Passage, the taking of such action by such Representative shall be deemed to constitute a breach of Section 5.4(a) by Passage for purposes of this Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything contained in Section 5.4(a) and subject to compliance with Section 5.4(a), prior
to the approval of this Agreement by Remix’s stockholders (i.e., the Required Remix Stockholder Vote), Remix may furnish non-public information regarding Remix and its Subsidiaries to, and enter into discussions or negotiations with,
any Person in response to a bona fide written Acquisition Proposal of Remix which the Remix Board determines in good faith, after consultation with Remix’s financial advisors and outside legal counsel, constitutes, or is reasonably
likely to result in, a Superior Offer (and is not withdrawn) if: (A) neither Remix nor any Representative of Remix shall have breached Section 5.4(a) in any material respect, (B) the Remix Board concludes in good faith based
on the advice of outside legal counsel, that the failure to take such action would reasonably be expected to result in a breach of the fiduciary duties of the Remix Board under applicable Law, (C) Remix gives Passage prior written

with furnishing any such non-public information to such Person, Remix furnishes such non-public information to Passage (to the extent such information has not been previously furnished by Remix to Passage). Without limiting the

If any Party or any Representative of such Party receives an Acquisition Proposal or Acquisition Inquiry at any time during
the Pre-Closing Period, then such Party shall promptly (and in no event later than one Business Day after such Party becomes aware of such Acquisition Proposal or Acquisition Inquiry) advise the other Party orally and in writing of
such Acquisition Proposal or Acquisition Inquiry (including the identity of the Person making or submitting such Acquisition Proposal or Acquisition Inquiry, and provide a copy of

|
(e)
|

with any Person that relate to any Acquisition Proposal or Acquisition Inquiry as of the date of this Agreement and request the destruction or return of any non-public information provided to such Person.
|
|
5.5

(iv) the failure of such Party to comply with any covenant or obligation of such Party; in each case that could reasonably be expected to make the timely satisfaction of any of the conditions set forth in Article VI impossible
or materially less likely. No such notice shall be deemed to supplement or amend the Remix Disclosure Schedule or the Passage Disclosure Schedule for the purpose of (A) determining the accuracy of any of the representations and
warranties made by Remix or Passage in this Agreement or (B) determining whether any condition set forth in Article VI has been satisfied. Any failure by either Party to provide notice pursuant to this Section 5.5
shall not be deemed to be a breach for purposes of Section 6.2(b) or 6.3(b), as applicable, unless such failure to provide such notice was knowing and intentional.

conditioned or delayed). Each Party acknowledges that Passage may, in contemplation of the Legacy Asset Disposition, (A) establish one or more Subsidiaries to hold the Legacy Assets, (B) transfer to any such Subsidiary any or all of
the Legacy Assets and the liabilities and obligations related thereto and (C) take such other steps that are reasonably necessary to prepare for the Legacy Asset Disposition. If Passage transfers the Legacy Assets to one or more
Subsidiaries, the terms of this Section 5.6(a) shall apply to such Subsidiaries in addition to Passage. Each Party further acknowledges that Passage may not be successful in completing, or may determine not to proceed, with
the Legacy Asset Disposition.

(i) Passage, in cooperation with Remix, shall prepare and file with the SEC a proxy statement
|
|
(b)
|
Passage covenants and agrees that the Registration Statement (and the letter to stockholders, notice of meeting and form of
proxy included therewith) will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Remix covenants and agrees that the information supplied by or on behalf of Remix and its Subsidiaries to Passage for inclusion in the Registration Statement (including the

circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Passage makes no covenant, representation or warranty with respect to statements made in the Registration Statement (and the letter to
stockholders, notice of meeting and form of proxy included therewith) based on information provided by Remix or its Subsidiaries or any of their Representatives for inclusion therein. Remix and its legal counsel shall be given
reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the Registration Statement, including all amendments and supplements thereto, prior to the filing thereof with the SEC, and on the response to any comments on the SEC prior to the filing
thereof with the SEC; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply to any amendment to the Registration Statement pertaining to a Passage
Board Adverse Recommendation Change. Each of the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement to comply with the applicable rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC, to respond promptly to
any comments of the SEC or its staff and to have the Registration Statement declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practicable after it is filed with the SEC.
|
|
(c)
|
Each of the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Proxy Statement to be mailed to Passage’s

or the Exchange Act, should be disclosed in an amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or Proxy Statement, as the case may be, then such Party, as the case may be, shall promptly inform the other Parties thereof and
shall cooperate with such other Parties in filing such amendment or supplement with the SEC and, if appropriate, in mailing such amendment or supplement to the Passage stockholders.
|
|
(d)
|
Remix shall reasonably cooperate with Passage and provide, and cause its Representatives to provide, Passage and its
Representatives, with all true, correct and complete information regarding Remix and its Subsidiaries that is required by Law to be included in the Registration Statement or reasonably requested by Passage to be included in the
Registration Statement. Remix will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause Remix’s independent accounting firm to deliver any consent that Passage is required to file with the SEC with respect to the inclusion of the independent
accounting firm’s opinion on the audited financial statements of Remix in any filing of the Registration Statement with the SEC.

Stock vote to adopt and approve this Agreement and the Contemplated Transactions, including the Mergers, the Remix Preferred Stock Conversion, and the Remix Charter Amendment, as required under Delaware Law and Remix’s Organizational
Documents (the “Remix Stockholder Matters”) and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to solicit such approval within the timeframe set forth in Section 5.8(a), (ii) the Remix
Stockholder Written Consent Materials shall include the Remix Board Recommendation and (iii) the Remix Board Recommendation shall not be withheld, amended, withdrawn or modified (and the Remix Board shall not publicly propose to
withhold, amend, withdraw or modify the Remix Board Recommendation) in a manner adverse to Passage, and no resolution by the Remix Board or any committee thereof to withdraw or modify the Remix Board Recommendation in a manner adverse
to Passage or to adopt, approve or recommend (or publicly propose to adopt, approve or recommend) any Acquisition Proposal shall be adopted or proposed (the actions set forth in the foregoing clause (iii), collectively, a “Remix Board Adverse Recommendation Change”).
|
|
(d)
|
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 5.8(c), and subject to compliance with Section 5.4
and Section 5.8, if at any time prior to the approval of the Remix Stockholder Matters by the Required Remix Stockholder Vote, Remix receives a bona fide written Superior Offer, the Remix Board may make a Remix Board Adverse
Recommendation Change if, but only if, in the receipt of and on account of such Superior Offer, (i) the Remix Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that the failure to make a Remix Board
Adverse Recommendation Change would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law, (ii) Remix has, and has caused its financial advisors and outside legal counsel to, during the Notice
Period, negotiate with Passage in good faith to make such adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement so that such Acquisition Proposal ceases to constitute a Superior Offer and (iii) if after Passage shall have
delivered to Remix a written offer to alter the terms or conditions of this Agreement during the Notice Period (or if Passage declines to do so), the Remix Board shall have determined in good faith, after consultation with its outside
legal counsel, that the failure to withhold, amend, withdraw or modify the Remix Board Recommendation would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law (after taking into account such
alterations of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, if any); provided that (x) Passage receives written notice from Remix confirming that the Remix Board has determined to change its
recommendation during the Notice Period, which notice shall include written copies of any relevant proposed transaction agreements with any party making a potential Superior Offer, (y) during any Notice Period, Passage shall be
entitled to deliver to Remix one or more counterproposals to such Acquisition Proposal and Remix will, and cause its Representatives to, negotiate with Passage in good faith (to the extent Passage desires to negotiate) to make such

Inquiry, or by any Remix Board Adverse Recommendation Change.

Passage shall take all action necessary under applicable Law to call, give notice of and hold a meeting of the holders of
Passage Common Stock to consider and vote to approve this Agreement and the Contemplated Transactions, including the issuance of the shares of Passage Common Stock to the stockholders of Remix pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (i.e., the Nasdaq Issuance Proposal) and the adoption of the Amended and Restated Passage Charter, and, if the Passage Board determines to complete the
Reverse Stock Split, an amendment to Passage’s certificate of incorporation to effect the Reverse Stock Split (the “Reverse Stock Split Proposal”) (collectively, the “Passage Stockholder Matters” and such meeting, the “Passage Stockholder Meeting”). The Passage Stockholder Meeting shall be held as
promptly as practicable after the date that the Registration Statement is declared effective under the Securities Act, and in any event no later than forty-five (45) days after the effective date of the Registration Statement. Passage
shall take reasonable measures to ensure that all proxies solicited in connection with the Passage Stockholder Meeting are solicited in compliance with all applicable Law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if
on the date of the Passage Stockholder Meeting, or a date preceding the date on which the Passage Stockholder Meeting is scheduled, Passage reasonably believes that (i) it will not receive proxies sufficient to obtain the Required
Passage Stockholder Vote, whether or not a quorum would be present or (ii) it will not have sufficient shares of Passage Common Stock represented (whether in person or by proxy) to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct the business
of the Passage Stockholder Meeting, Passage may postpone or adjourn, or make one or more successive postponements or adjournments of, the Passage Stockholder Meeting as long as the date of the Passage Stockholder Meeting is not
postponed or adjourned more than an aggregate of thirty (30) calendar days in connection with any postponements or adjournments.

a statement to the effect that the Passage Board recommends that Passage’s stockholders vote to approve the Passage Stockholder Matters (the recommendation of the Passage Board being referred to as the “Passage Board Recommendation”) and (iii) the Passage Board Recommendation shall not be withheld, amended, withdrawn or modified (and the Passage Board shall not publicly propose to withhold, amend, withdraw or modify
the Passage Board Recommendation) in a manner adverse to Remix, and no resolution by the Passage Board or any committee thereof to withdraw or modify the Passage Board Recommendation in a manner adverse to Remix or to adopt, approve
or recommend (or publicly propose to adopt, approve or recommend) any Acquisition Proposal shall be adopted or proposed (the actions set forth in the foregoing clause (iii), collectively, a “Passage
Board Adverse Recommendation Change”).

|
(c)
|
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 5.9(b), and subject to compliance with Section 5.4
and Section 5.9, if at any time prior to the approval of Passage Stockholder Matters by the Required Passage Stockholder Vote, Passage receives a bona fide written Superior Offer, the Passage Board may make a Passage Board
Adverse Recommendation Change if, but only if, in the receipt of and on account of such Superior Offer, (i) the Passage Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that the failure to make a

|
|
(e)
|
Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prohibit Passage or the Passage Board from (i) complying with Rules 14d-9 and
14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act; provided, however, that any disclosure made by Passage or the Passage Board pursuant to Rules 14d-9 and
14e-2(a) shall be limited to a statement that Passage is unable to take a position with respect to the bidder’s tender offer unless the Passage Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that

if a D&O Indemnified Party (defined below) asserts a claim for indemnification or other protections pursuant to this Section 5.15 prior to the end of such six-year period, then until the date that such claim is resolved
and all Costs associated therewith have been indemnified), each of Passage and the Surviving Corporation shall indemnify and hold harmless each person who is now, or has been at any time prior to the date hereof, or who becomes prior
to the Initial Effective Time, a director or officer of Passage or Remix, respectively (the “D&O Indemnified Parties”), against all claims, losses, liabilities, damages, judgments, fines and
reasonable fees, costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees and disbursements (collectively, “Costs”), incurred in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation,
whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of or pertaining to the fact that the D&O Indemnified Party is or was a director or officer of Passage or of Remix, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or
after the Initial Effective Time, in each case, to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware Law. Each D&O Indemnified Party will be entitled to advancement of expenses incurred in the defense of any such claim, action, suit,
proceeding or investigation from each of Passage and the Surviving Corporation, jointly and severally, upon receipt by Passage or the Surviving Corporation from the D&O Indemnified Party of a request therefor; provided that any such person to whom expenses are advanced provides an undertaking to Passage, to the extent then required by Delaware Law, to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined
that such person is not entitled to indemnification.

The provisions of Passage’s Organizational Documents with respect to indemnification, advancement of expenses and
exculpation of present and former directors and officers of Passage that are presently set forth in Passage’s Organizational Documents shall not be amended, modified or repealed for a period of six years from the Initial Effective
Time in a manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of individuals who, at or prior to the Initial Effective Time, were officers or directors of Passage, unless such modification is required by applicable Law. The
Surviving Corporation’s Organizational Documents shall contain, and Passage shall cause the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation to so contain, provisions no less favorable with respect to indemnification,
advancement of expenses and exculpation of present and former directors and officers as those presently set forth in Remix’s Organizational Documents.

the Initial Effective Time, a six-year prepaid “D&O tail policy” for the non-cancellable extension of directors’ and officers’ liability coverage of Passage’s existing directors’ and
officers’ insurance policies for a claims reporting or discovery period of at least six years from and after the

Representatives.

merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each

Agreement any required withholding Tax under Section 1445 of the Code, and Remix’s failure to provide any such form or certificate will not be deemed to be a failure of the conditions set forth in Article VI to have been met.

shall have been true and correct, subject to the qualifications as set forth in the preceding clause (i), as of such particular date) (it being understood that, for purposes of determining the accuracy of such representations and

warranties or breach by Passage or any Merger Sub is curable by Passage or such Merger Sub at least one Business Day prior to the Outside Date, then this Agreement shall not terminate pursuant to this Section 8.1(j) as a

rights under this Section 8.3 and (ii) such Party shall pay to the other Party interest on such overdue amount (for the period commencing as of the date such overdue amount was originally required to be paid and ending on the

|
|
(g)
|

|
9.2
|

|
|
9.3
|
Waiver.
|
|
(a)
|
Any provision hereof may be waived by the waiving Party solely on such Party’s own behalf, without the consent of any other
Party. No failure on the part of any Party to exercise any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, and no delay on the part of any Party in exercising any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, shall
operate as a waiver of such power, right, privilege or remedy; and no single or partial exercise of any such power, right, privilege or remedy shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right,
privilege or remedy.
|
|
(b)
|

under this Agreement, unless the waiver of such claim, power, right, privilege or remedy is expressly set forth in a written instrument duly executed and delivered on behalf of such Party and any such waiver shall not be applicable or
have any effect except in the specific instance in which it is given.
|
|
9.4
|
Entire Agreement; Counterparts; Exchanges by Electronic Transmission or Facsimile. This Agreement and the other
schedules, exhibits, certificates, instruments and agreements referred to in this Agreement constitute the entire agreement and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among or between any of the
Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof (including the Original Merger Agreement); provided, however, that (a) the
Confidentiality Agreement shall not be superseded and shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with its terms and (b) the Remix Disclosure Schedule and the Passage Disclosure Schedule shall not, pursuant to Section 268(b)
of Delaware Law, be deemed part of this Agreement for purposes of any provision of Delaware Law, but shall have the effects provided in this Agreement. This Agreement amends, restates and supersedes in its entirety the Original Merger
Agreement in all respects. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument. The exchange of a fully executed Agreement (in
counterparts or otherwise) by all Parties by electronic transmission in PDF format shall be sufficient to bind the Parties to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
|
|
9.5
|
Applicable Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the
State of Delaware, regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of laws. In any action or proceeding between any of the Parties arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the
Contemplated Transactions, each of the Parties: irrevocably and unconditionally (a) consents and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or, to the extent such court does not
have subject matter jurisdiction, the Superior Court of the State of Delaware or the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, (b) agrees that all claims in respect of such action or proceeding shall be heard and
determined exclusively in accordance with clause (a) of this Section 9.5, (c) waives any objection to laying venue in any such action or proceeding in such courts, (d) waives any objection that such courts are an inconvenient
forum or do not have jurisdiction over any Party, (e) agrees that service of process upon such Party in any such action or proceeding shall be effective if notice is given in accordance with Section 9.7 of this Agreement and
(f) irrevocably and unconditionally waives the right to trial by jury.
|
|
9.6
|
Assignability. This Agreement shall be binding upon, and shall be enforceable by and inure solely to the benefit of,
the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns; provided, however, that neither this Agreement nor any of a Party’s rights or
obligations hereunder may be assigned or delegated by such Party without the prior written consent of the other Party, and any attempted assignment or delegation of this Agreement or any of such rights or obligations by such Party
without the other Party’s prior written consent shall be void and of no effect.
|
|
9.7
|
Notices. All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly
delivered and received hereunder (a) one (1) Business Day after being sent for next Business Day delivery, fees prepaid, via a reputable international overnight courier service, (b) upon delivery in the case of delivery by hand or (c)

9.8
|
Cooperation. Each Party agrees to cooperate fully with the other Party and to execute and deliver such further
documents, certificates, agreements and instruments and to take such other actions as may be reasonably requested by the other Party to evidence or reflect the Contemplated Transactions and to carry out the intent and purposes of this
Agreement.
|
|
9.9
|
Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any
jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other
jurisdiction. If a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable, the Parties agree that the court making such determination shall have the power
to limit such term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases or to replace such term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or
unenforceable term or provision, and this Agreement shall be valid and enforceable as so modified. In the event such court does not exercise the power granted to it in the prior sentence, the Parties agree to replace such invalid or
unenforceable term or provision with a valid and enforceable term or provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such invalid or unenforceable term or provision.
|
|
9.10
|
Other Remedies; Specific Performance. Except as otherwise provided herein, any and all remedies herein expressly
conferred upon a Party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such Party, and the exercise by a Party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any
other remedy. The Parties agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in
accordance with their specific terms (including failing to take such actions as are required of each Party hereunder to consummate this Agreement and the Contemplated Transactions) or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed
that the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any court of the
United States or any state having jurisdiction, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity, and each of the Parties waives any bond, surety or other security that might be required of any
other Party with respect thereto. Each of the Parties further agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief on the basis that any other Party has an adequate remedy at law
or that any award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or in equity.
|
|
9.11
|
No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any
Person (other than the Parties and the D&O Indemnified Parties to the extent of their respective rights pursuant to Section 5.15) any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.
