Re: Engagement of Calderwood & Harkness LLP by Lumos Analytics Inc. — EMEA Channel Reseller Program Agreement with Meridian Data Solutions GmbH
Matter Number: 1008-00010
Dear Mr. Ostroff:
1. Introduction and Purpose
Calderwood & Harkness LLP ("we," "us," or the "Firm") is pleased to confirm its engagement by Lumos Analytics Inc. ("Lumos," "you," or the "Client"), a Delaware C-Corporation headquartered in Palo Alto, California. We appreciate the confidence you and your colleagues have placed in our Firm, and we look forward to working with the Lumos team on this important transaction.
This letter sets forth the terms and conditions under which the Firm will provide legal services to the Client in connection with the negotiation, drafting, and execution of a Channel Reseller Program Agreement and related ancillary documents (collectively, the "Transaction Documents") between Lumos and Meridian Data Solutions GmbH, a Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung organized under the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany, with its registered office at Leopoldstraße 78, 80802 München, Germany (the "Counterparty" or "Meridian"). This engagement letter (the "Engagement Letter") supersedes any prior oral or written understandings between the Firm and the Client regarding the scope and terms of this engagement.
The engagement relates to the establishment of a channel-reseller program for the distribution of Lumos's AI-driven financial analytics and risk-modeling software-as-a-service platform, branded as Lumos Prism™ (the "Platform"), across the Europe, Middle East, and Africa ("EMEA") region. As we understand it, the proposed arrangement contemplates an aggregate deal value of approximately Thirty Million United States Dollars ($30,000,000) over a five-year initial term, with potential renewal options to be negotiated as part of the Transaction Documents. Given the complexity of the transaction, the multi-jurisdictional regulatory considerations, and the significance of the commercial relationship to Lumos's growth strategy in EMEA, we believe it is important that the terms of our engagement be clearly set forth in writing.
Please review this Engagement Letter carefully. If the terms accurately reflect our mutual understanding, please sign and return a copy of this letter to us in accordance with the instructions set forth in Section 14 below.
2. Scope of Representation
The Firm's representation of the Client in connection with this engagement will include the following services:
(a) Reseller Agreement. Drafting, reviewing, and negotiating the Channel Reseller Program Agreement (the "Reseller Agreement") between Lumos and Meridian, including all substantive provisions relating to grant of reseller rights, territory exclusivity and restrictions, pricing and discount structures, intellectual property licensing, confidentiality obligations, representations and warranties, indemnification, limitation of liability, term and termination, and dispute resolution mechanisms.
(b) Exhibits and Schedules. Preparing, reviewing, and negotiating exhibits and schedules to the Reseller Agreement, which are currently anticipated to include the following:

(iii) Data Processing Agreement (the "DPA"), including the incorporation of the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses for international data transfers (Module Two: Controller to Processor, and Module Three: Processor to Processor, as applicable), together with the United Kingdom's International Data Transfer Addendum, as required to comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 ("GDPR") and the United Kingdom Data Protection Act 2018;
(iv) Trademark License & Brand Guidelines, governing Meridian's use of Lumos trademarks, service marks, logos, and related brand assets in connection with the marketing and resale of the Platform;

Drafting and negotiating an Escrow Agreement with Evergreen Trust Company, N.A., a nationally chartered trust company, for the purpose of establishing the indemnification holdback mechanism contemplated by the Reseller Agreement, including provisions governing the deposit, release, and disbursement of escrowed funds and the resolution of disputed claims against the escrow.

The Firm will coordinate the closing process and circulate final versions of all Transaction Documents in advance of the anticipated closing date.
(f) Coordination with UK/EU Regulatory Counsel.

Parts 730–774), the U.S. Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control ("OFAC") sanctions programs, and relevant EU sanctions regulations, as they apply to the distribution of the Platform in the EMEA region; and
(iv) insurance requirements analysis, including a review of the adequacy of proposed insurance provisions and recommended coverage types and limits.
(j) Correspondence and Negotiation with Counterparty's Counsel. Corresponding and negotiating with Meridian's outside counsel, Kessler Hartmann Rechtsanwälte PartG mbB, a partnership with limited professional liability organized under German law, with offices at Maximilianstraße 35, 80539 München, Germany, led by Dr. Stefan Kessler, Rechtsanwalt. The Firm will serve as Lumos's lead outside counsel in all communications with Meridian's counsel relating to the Transaction Documents.
Limitations on Scope. The Client acknowledges and agrees that the Firm's scope of representation under this Engagement Letter does not include, and the Firm will not be providing, advice on the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany, the French Republic, or any other non-U.S. and non-English jurisdiction. To the extent that advice on German law, French law, or the laws of any other jurisdiction is required in connection with the Transaction Documents, the Client is responsible for engaging and compensating appropriate local counsel in such jurisdictions. The Firm is prepared to assist the Client in identifying qualified local counsel upon request, but the engagement of such counsel will be a matter between the Client and the local counsel firm.
Additionally, the Client acknowledges that the Firm's coordination with Thornbridge Whitaker LLP in connection with GDPR and UK GDPR matters is undertaken solely for the benefit of the Client and does not create an attorney-client relationship between Thornbridge Whitaker LLP and the Firm. Thornbridge Whitaker LLP's engagement is with and on behalf of Lumos Analytics Inc. directly, and the Firm assumes no responsibility for the legal advice rendered by Thornbridge Whitaker LLP.
Should the Client request services beyond the scope described above, the Firm will discuss the additional scope and any associated cost implications with the Client before undertaking such work.

This estimate is provided solely for the Client's budgeting and planning purposes and does not constitute a cap, ceiling, or fixed-fee arrangement.
