Sale of Intralinks

Share Purchase Agreement

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Share Purchase Agreement, at the closing of the Intralinks Transaction, Impala will acquire the issued and outstanding shares of Intralinks for approximately $977 million in cash, subject to adjustments for changes in cash, debt and working capital. If, in the future, Impala receives net cash proceeds in excess of $440 million from any sale of equity or assets of Intralinks, or from a dividend or distribution in respect of the shares of Intralinks, then Impala shall be required to pay Synchronoss up to an additional $25 million in cash or, in some cases, publicly-traded securities. The closing of the Intralinks Transaction is subject to certain closing conditions, including (i) the receipt of certain antitrust and foreign competition approvals, (ii) the absence of any law or court or governmental order or injunction preventing, prohibiting or making illegal the consummation of the Intralinks Transaction, (iii) the entry into and delivery of a transition services agreement between Synchronoss and Impala, (iv) the receipt by Synchronoss (and delivery to Impala) of solvency and fairness opinions, (v) the absence of any Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Share Purchase Agreement) with respect to Intralinks and (vi) Impala being satisfied in its reasonable discretion that no regulatory or other governmental development (other than under antitrust laws) affecting Intralinks or its subsidiaries, or any of its officers, employees or directors would reasonably be likely to cause an adverse effect on Intralinks, Impala or their respective affiliates (or adversely affect the benefits of the Intralinks Transaction to Impala or its affiliates) following consummation of the Intralinks Transaction. The closing of the Intralinks Transaction is not subject to any financing contingency.  Immediately following the consummation of the Intralinks Transaction, Synchronoss will pay to Impala $5 million as partial reimbursement of the out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred by Impala, Siris and their respective affiliates in connection with the execution of the Share Purchase Agreement and the Intralinks Transaction.

The Share Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and covenants made by each of Impala, Intralinks and Synchronoss, which include covenants regarding: (i) the conduct of the operations of Intralinks prior to the consummation of the Intralinks Transaction, (ii) customary “no-shop” restrictions on Synchronoss’ ability to solicit alternative acquisition proposals for Intralinks and (iii) the use of reasonable best efforts to cause the Intralinks Transaction to be consummated.

Siris has obtained debt financing commitments from Royal Bank of Canada, Golub Capital LLC, and Macquarie Capital Funding LLC for the purpose of financing the transactions contemplated by the Share Purchase Agreement and paying related fees and expenses. The obligations of the lenders to provide debt financing under the debt commitment letter are subject to certain conditions.

The Share Purchase Agreement contains specified termination rights for each of Synchronoss and Impala, including (i) if the consummation of the Intralinks Transaction is legally prohibited or enjoined by a final, non-appealable government order, (ii) if the consummation of the Intralinks Transaction has not occurred by January 15, 2018, (iii) if there are any material inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of the parties, or material breaches of the parties’ respective covenants that have not been cured within a specified time, (iv) if Impala is not satisfied in its reasonable discretion that no regulatory or other governmental development (other than under antitrust laws) affecting Intralinks or its subsidiaries or any of its officers, employees or directors would reasonably be likely to cause an adverse effect on Intralinks, Impala or their respective affiliates (or adversely affect the benefits of the Intralinks Transaction to Impala or its affiliates) following consummation of the Intralinks Transaction, or (v) by mutual written consent of the parties.

Impala may be required to pay Synchronoss a termination fee of approximately $48.9 million upon termination of the Share Purchase Agreement under the following circumstances: (i) if (A) the marketing period has ended, (B) all other conditions to closing of the Intralinks Transaction have been satisfied or waived, (C) Synchronoss has irrevocably confirmed by written notice that, if the necessary debt and equity financing are funded, then it would take such actions as are within its control to consummate the Intralinks Transaction and (D) Impala fails to consummate the Intralinks Transaction within three business days of when the closing should have occurred and Synchronoss stood ready, willing and able to consummate the Intralinks Transaction at all times during such three-business-day period; or (ii) if Impala terminates the Share Purchase Agreement following January 15, 2018 and Synchronoss could have terminated the Share Purchase Agreement pursuant to prong (i), without giving effect to the three business day grace period. The Share Purchase Agreement further provides that Synchronoss may be required to reimburse Impala for certain of its expenses, up to a cap of $5 million, if Impala terminates the agreement because Impala is not satisfied in its reasonable discretion that no regulatory or other governmental development (other than under antitrust laws) affecting Intralinks or its subsidiaries or any of its officers, employees or directors would reasonably be likely to cause an adverse effect on Intralinks, Impala or their respective affiliates (or adversely affect the benefits of the Intralinks Transaction to Impala or its affiliates) following consummation of the Intralinks Transaction (the “Intralinks Reimbursement”).

Additionally, should the consummation of the Intralinks Transaction occur after November 15, 2017 due to a material breach by Impala of its covenants under the Share Purchase Agreement, or a delay by Impala’s financing sources that constitutes a breach by such financing sources or that is related to a breach by Impala of its covenants under the Share Purchase Agreement, Impala will be required to reimburse Synchronoss for any amendment, consent or waiver fee that Synchronoss is required to pay its lenders pursuant to the Seller Credit Agreement (as defined in the Share Purchase Agreement), up to a cap of $5 million.

Subject to the terms of the Share Purchase Agreement, Synchronoss and Impala have agreed to indemnify each other for certain damages, costs and expenses that result from breaches of their respective representations and warranties, breaches of covenants and certain other matters. Each party’s right to be indemnified under the Share Purchase Agreement is subject to certain limitations, including a $25 million cap on damages with respect to representations and warranties (other than with respect to (i) breaches of Synchronoss’ representation with respect to the sufficiency of the assets transferred in the Intralinks Transaction, which are subject to a cap of $50 million, (ii) breaches of Synchronoss’ representation regarding the absence of misstatements or omissions of material facts, which is subject to a cap of $50 million and (iii) breaches of Synchronoss’ Fundamental Representations (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), which are subject to a cap equal to the purchase price). Additionally, Synchronoss has agreed to indemnify Impala, without limitation, for certain excluded liabilities, including, among others, liabilities arising out of any litigation, actions or investigations to which Synchronoss is a party, target or subject and expenses of Intralinks related to the Intralinks Transaction and not otherwise paid at or prior to the closing of the Intralinks Transaction.

This summary of the Share Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Share Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated into this Item 1.01 by reference.

Sale of Series A Preferred Stock

Securities Purchase Agreement

Subject to the terms and conditions of the PIPE Purchase Agreement, Synchronoss will issue and sell to Silver 185,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $185 million, consisting of (i) $97.7 million in cash and (ii) the Existing Siris Shares, valued for this purpose at approximately $87.3 million in the aggregate. The PIPE Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants by each of Synchronoss and Silver, including covenants by Synchronoss regarding: (i) the conduct of the business of Synchronoss prior to the consummation of the Preferred Transaction and (ii) the use of commercially reasonable best efforts to cause the Preferred Transaction to be consummated.

In addition, the PIPE Purchase Agreement contains certain termination rights for both Synchronoss and Silver, including if the Preferred Transaction has not been consummated within 90 calendar days unless such date has been extended in accordance with the terms of the PIPE Purchase Agreement, in which case, the parties may not terminate the PIPE Purchase Agreement until a business day following the date specified in such notice of extension.  Silver may also terminate the agreement if Silver, in its reasonable discretion, is not satisfied with all due diligence facts and developments relating to Synchronoss, its affiliates or their respective officers, employees or directors, including with respect to any actions, inquiries or investigations by any governmental authority.

Under the terms of the PIPE Purchase Agreement, in the event the Preferred Transaction is not consummated, Synchronoss also granted Silver the right to sell the Existing Siris Shares to Synchronoss (the “Put Right”) for a purchase price per share equal to $14.56 in cash (corresponding to an aggregate purchase price of approximately $87.3 million if Silver elects to exercise the Put Right with respect to all Existing Siris Shares).  The Put Right is only exercisable by Silver by written notice delivered to Synchronoss not later than the fifth business day following any termination of the PIPE Purchase Agreement.  Moreover, in connection with the Put Right, Synchronoss and Silver have agreed that, effective as of immediately prior to or substantially concurrently with the first to occur of the consummation of the Intralinks Transaction or the termination of the Share Purchase Agreement, Synchronoss and Silver will enter into a customary escrow agreement in respect of approximately $87.3 million to be deposited into escrow by Synchronoss.  The escrow agreement will provide, among other matters, that the funds will be released to Silver at Silver’s direction upon its exercise of the Put Right by Silver and that the funds will be released to the Company upon consummation of the Preferred Transaction.

Pursuant to the PIPE Purchase Agreement, Synchronoss agreed to indemnify Silver and its affiliates for (i) any breach of any Fundamental Representation (as defined in the PIPE Purchase Agreement) or (ii) any breach of any of the covenants of Synchronoss contained in the PIPE Purchase Agreement, up to the $185 million purchase price, subject to certain exceptions.

Additionally, Synchronoss has agreed to reimburse Silver for up to a maximum of $5 million to cover Silver’s reasonable costs and expenses incurred at or prior to the earlier of the closing of the Preferred Transaction and the date that the PIPE Purchase Agreement is terminated (the “PIPE Reimbursement”); provided, that, the PIPE Reimbursement shall be reduced by any Intralinks Reimbursement paid by Synchronoss such that the aggregate of the Intralinks Reimbursement and the PIPE Reimbursement shall not exceed $5 million in the aggregate.

The PIPE Purchase Agreement is filed as Exhibit 2.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated into this Item 1.01 by reference, and the foregoing summary of the PIPE Purchase Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to Exhibit 2.2.

Form of Certificate of Designation of the Series A Preferred Stock

The rights, preferences, privileges, qualifications, restrictions and limitations of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock will be set forth in the Series A Certificate. Under the Series A Certificate, the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive, on each share of Series A Preferred Stock on a quarterly basis, an amount equal to the dividend rate of 14.5% divided by four and multiplied by the then-applicable Liquidation Preference (as defined in the Series A Certificate) per share of Series A Preferred Stock (collectively, the “Preferred Dividends”).  The Preferred Dividends will be due on January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1 of each year (each, a “Series A Dividend Payment Date”).  Synchronoss may choose to pay the Preferred Dividends in cash or in additional shares of Series A Preferred Stock.  In the event Synchronoss does not declare and pay a dividend in-kind or

4

in cash on any Series A Dividend Payment Date, the unpaid amount of the Preferred Dividend will be added to the Liquidation Preference. In addition, the Series A Preferred Stock will participate in dividends declared and paid on shares of Common Stock.

Each share of Series A Preferred Stock will be convertible, at the option of the holder, into the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the “Conversion Price” (as that term is defined in the Series A Certificate) multiplied by the then applicable “Conversion Rate” (as that term is defined in the Series A Certificate).  Each share of Series A Preferred Stock will initially be convertible into 55.5556 shares of Common Stock, representing an initial “conversion price” of approximately $18.00 per share of Common Stock. The Conversion Rate will be subject to equitable proportionate adjustment in the event of stock splits, recapitalizations and other events set forth in the Series A Certificate.

On and after the fifth anniversary of the date of issuance, holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock will have the right to cause Synchronoss to redeem each share of Series A Preferred Stock for cash in an amount equal to the sum of the current liquidation preference and any accrued dividends.  Each share of Series A Preferred Stock will also be redeemable at the option of the holder upon the occurrence of a “Fundamental Change” (as that term is defined in the Series A Certificate) at a specified premium.  In addition, the Company will also be permitted to redeem all outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock (i) at any time within the first 30 months of the date of issuance for the sum of the then-applicable Liquidation Preference, accrued but unpaid dividends and a make whole amount and (ii) at any time following the 30-month anniversary of the date of issuance for the sum of the then-applicable Liquidation Preference and the accrued but unpaid dividends.

The holders of a majority of the Series A Preferred Stock, voting separately as a class, will be entitled at each annual meeting of the stockholders of the Company or at any special meeting called for the purpose of electing directors (or by written consent signed by the holders of a majority of the then-outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock in lieu of such a meeting): (i) to nominate and elect two members of the Board of Directors of Synchronoss for so long as the Preferred Percentage (as defined in the Series A Certificate) is equal to or greater than 10%; and (ii) to nominate and elect one member of the Board of Directors of Synchronoss for so long as the Preferred Percentage is equal to or greater than 5% but less than 10%.

For so long as the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock have the right to nominate at least one director, Synchronoss shall be required to obtain the prior approval of Silver before to taking certain actions, including: (i) certain dividends, repayments and redemptions; (ii) any amendment to Synchronoss’ certificate of incorporation that adversely effects the rights , preferences, privileges or voting powers of the Series A Preferred Stock; (iii) issuances of stock ranking senior or equivalent to shares of Series A Preferred Stock (including additional shares of Series A Preferred Stock) in the priority of payment of dividends or in the distribution of assets upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of Synchronoss; (iv) changes in the size of the Board of Directors of Synchronoss; (v) any amendment, alteration, modification or repeal of the charter of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board of Directors and related documents; and (vi) any change in the principal business of Synchronoss or the entry into any line of business outside of its existing lines of businesses.  In addition, in the event that Synchronoss is in EBITDA Non-Compliance (as defined in the Series A Certificate) or the undertaking of certain actions would result in Synchronoss exceeding a specified pro forma leverage ratio, then the prior approval of Silver would be required to incur indebtedness (or alter any debt document) in excess of $10 million, enter or consummate any transaction where the fair market value exceeds $5 million individually or $10 million in the aggregate in a fiscal year or authorize or commit to capital expenditures in excess of $25 million in a fiscal year.

Each holder of Series A Preferred Stock will have one vote per share on any matter on which holders of Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to vote separately as a class, whether at a meeting or by written consent.  The holders of Series A Preferred Stock will be permitted to take any action or consent to any action with respect to such rights without a meeting by delivering a consent in writing or electronic transmission of the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock entitled to cast not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize, take or consent to such action at a meeting of stockholders.  In addition to any vote (or action taken by written consent) of the holders of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock as a separate class provided for herein or by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, the holders of shares of the Series A Preferred Stock will be entitled to vote with the holders of shares of Common Stock (and any other class or series that may similarly be entitled to vote with the holders of Common Stock) on all matters submitted to a vote or to the consent of the stockholders of the Company (including the election of directors) as one class.

Under the Series A Certificate, if Silver and certain of its affiliates have elected to effect a conversion of some or all of their shares of Series A Preferred Stock and if the sum, without duplication, of (i) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issued to such holders upon such conversion and any shares of Series A Preferred Stock previously issued to such holders upon conversion, plus (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock underlying shares of Series A Preferred Stock that would be held at such time by such holders (after giving effect to such conversion), would exceed the 19.99% of the issued and outstanding shares of Synchronoss’ voting stock on an as converted basis (the “Conversion Cap”), then such holders

5

would only be entitled to convert such number of shares as would result in the sum of clauses (i) and (ii) (after giving effect to such conversion) being equal to the Conversion Cap (after giving effect to any such limitation on conversion).  Any shares of Series A Preferred Stock which a holder has elected to convert but which, by reason of the previous sentence, are not so converted, will be treated as if the holder had not made such election to convert and such shares of Series A Preferred Stock will remain outstanding.  Also, under the Series A Certificate, if the sum, without duplication, of (i) the aggregate voting power of the shares previously issued to Silver and certain of its affiliates held by such holders at the record date, plus (ii) the aggregate voting power of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by such holders as of such record date, would exceed 19.99% of the total voting power of Synchronoss’ outstanding voting stock at such record date, then, with respect to such shares, Silver and certain of its affiliates will only be entitled to cast a number of votes equal to 19.99% of such total voting power.  The limitation on conversion and voting will cease to apply upon receipt of the requisite approval of holders of Common Stock under the applicable listing standards.

The Series A Certificate is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated into this Item 1.01 by reference, and the foregoing summary of the Series A Certificate is qualified in its entirety by reference to Exhibit 3.1.

Form of Investor Rights Agreement

Concurrently with the closing of the Preferred Transaction, Synchronoss and Silver will enter into an Investor Rights Agreement (the “Investor Rights Agreement”).  Under the terms of the Investor Rights Agreement, Silver and Synchronoss have agreed that, e ffective as of the closing of the Preferred Transaction, the Board of Directors of Synchronoss will consist of ten members.  From and after the closing of the Preferred Transaction, so long as the holders of Series A Preferred Stock have the right to nominate a member to the Board of Directors pursuant to the Series A Certificate, the Board of Directors of Synchronoss will consist of (i) two directors nominated and elected by the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock; (ii) four directors who meet the independence criteria set forth in the applicable listing standards (each of whom will be initially agreed upon by Synchronoss and Silver); and (iii) four other directors, two of whom shall satisfy the independence criteria of the applicable listing standards and, as of the closing of the Preferred Transaction, one of whom shall be the individual then serving as chief executive officer of Synchronoss and one of whom shall be the current chairman of the Board of Directors of Synchronoss as of the date of execution of the Investors Rights Agreement.  Following the closing of the Preferred Transaction, so long as the holders of Series A Preferred Stock have the right to nominate at least one director to the Board of Directors of Synchronoss pursuant to the Series A Certificate, Silver will have the right to designate two members of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board of Directors.

Pursuant to the terms of the Investor Rights Agreement, neither Silver nor its affiliates may transfer any shares of Series A Preferred Stock subject to certain exceptions (including transfers to affiliates that agree to be bound by the terms of the Investor Rights Agreement).

For so long as Silver has the right to appoint a director to the Board of Directors of Synchronoss, without the prior approval by a majority of directors voting who are not appointed by the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock, neither Silver nor its affiliates will directly or indirectly purchase or acquire any debt or equity securities of Synchronoss (including equity-linked derivative securities) if such purchase or acquisition would result in Silver’s Standstill Percentage (as defined in the Investor Rights Agreement) being in excess of 30%.  However, the foregoing standstill restrictions would not prohibit the purchase of shares pursuant to the PIPE Purchase Agreement or the receipt of shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued as Preferred Dividends pursuant to the Series A Certificate, shares of Common Stock received upon conversion of shares of Series A Preferred Stock or receipt of any shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Common Stock or other securities of the Company otherwise paid as dividends or as an increase of the Liquidation Preference (as defined in the Series A Certificate) or distributions thereon.  Silver will also have preemptive rights with respect to issuances of securities of Synchronoss in order to maintain its ownership percentage.

Under the terms of the Investor Rights Agreement, Silver will be entitled to (i) three demand registrations, with no more than two demand registrations in any single calendar year and provided that each demand registration must include at least 10% of the shares of Common Stock held by Silver, including shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of shares of Series A Preferred Stock and (ii) unlimited piggyback registration rights with respect to primary issuances and all other issuances.

The form of the Investor Rights Agreement is filed as Exhibit 4.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated into this Item 1.01 by reference, and the foregoing summary of the Investor Rights Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to Exhibit 4.1.
