The fees related to the services to be provided under the Transition Services Agreement will be an amount to be agreed by Buyer and the Key Individuals and will be payable from the remaining proceeds of the loan issued to the Company in accordance with the Loan Documents.

Section 7.7 Transfer Taxes. All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration, value added and other similar Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with this Agreement shall be borne and paid by the Members when due. The Members shall, at their own expense, timely prepare and file any Tax Return or other document required by law with respect to such Taxes or fees (and Buyer shall cooperate with respect thereto as reasonably necessary).

(a)The parties shall allocate the Closing Date Consideration among the assets of the Company in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code. A statement setting forth such proposed allocation (the “Tax Allocation Schedule”) shall be prepared in good faith by Buyer and delivered to the Members within ninety (90) days following the Closing Date. Within 30 days following Buyer’s delivery of the proposed Tax Allocation Schedule to the Members, the Members may give Buyer a written notice stating the Members’ objections to the proposed Tax Allocation Schedule (an “Allocation Objection Notice”). If the Members do not give Buyer an Allocation Objection Notice within such 30 day period, then the proposed Tax Allocation Schedule will be conclusive and binding upon the parties. If the Members do give Buyer an Allocation Objection Notice, and in the event that Buyer and the Members fail to resolve all of the issues set forth in the Allocation Objection Notice within 30 days after Buyer receives the Allocation Objection Notice (the “Allocation Agreement Period”), (i) Buyer and the Members will retain a firm of certified public accountants designated by the Members and reasonably acceptable to the Buyer (the “CPAs”) to make the determination of the purchase price allocation within the 30 day period immediately following the Allocation Agreement Period, and (ii) Buyer and the Members will each provide the CPAs with their respective determinations of the purchase price allocation. The CPAs will consider only those items and amounts in Buyer’s and the Members’ respective determinations of proposed purchase price allocation that are identified as being items and amounts to which Buyer and the Members have been unable to agree. In resolving any such disputed item or amount, the CPAs may not assign a value to any item or amount that is higher than the highest value for such item or amount claimed by either party or lower than the lowest value for such item or amount claimed by either party. The determination of the purchase price allocation by the CPAs will be conclusive and binding upon the parties. The fees, costs and expenses of the CPAs shall be paid shall be allocated between the Members, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand,

in inverse proportion as the Members and Buyer may prevail on matters resolved by the Independent Auditors, which proportionate allocations shall be determined by the Independent Auditors. The parties shall report, act and file all Tax Returns in all respects and for all purposes consistent with the Tax Allocation Schedule and this Section 7.8, and no party shall take any position (whether in audits, Tax Returns or otherwise) that is inconsistent with the Tax Allocation Schedule or this Section 7.8 unless required to do so by applicable Law. If the Closing Date Consideration is adjusted in any manner as provided in this Agreement, the Tax Allocation Schedule shall be adjusted as mutually agreed by the parties to reflect such adjustments to the consideration paid pursuant to this Agreement.

(b)The Members shall, at the Members’ expense, prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed (taking into account all applicable extensions) with the applicable Tax authority any income Tax Returns required to be filed by or with respect to Company for taxable years ending on or before the Closing Date, which for avoidance of doubt shall include the final partnership income Tax Returns of the Company for the tax period ending on the Closing Date. Such income Tax Returns shall be prepared in a manner consistent with the Company’s past practice.

(c)Except for the Tax Returns prepared by the Members pursuant to Section 7.8(b), Buyer shall file or cause to be filed when due all Tax Returns of the Company that are required to be filed by or with respect to Company after the Closing Date.

(d)The Buyer and the Members shall reasonably cooperate, and shall cause their respective Affiliates (including the Company), officers, employees, agents, auditors and representatives reasonably to cooperate, with each other in preparing and filing all Tax Returns of the Company, resolving all disputes relating to Taxes of the Company, and handling all proceedings, examinations, and audits relating to Tax matters of the Company, including maintaining and making available all records necessary in connection with such Tax Returns, disputes and Tax matters.

(d)Each Restricted Member acknowledges that a breach or threatened breach of this would give rise to irreparable harm to Buyer, for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy, and hereby agrees that in the event of a breach or a threatened breach by such Restricted Member of any such obligations, Buyer shall, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies that may be available to it in respect of such breach, be entitled to equitable relief, including a temporary restraining order, an injunction, specific performance and any other relief that may be available from a court of competent jurisdiction (without any requirement to post bond).

(e)Each Restricted Member acknowledges that the restrictions contained in this Section 7.10 are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate interests of Buyer and constitute a material inducement to Buyer to enter into this Agreement and consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In the event that any covenant contained in this Section 7.10 should ever be adjudicated to exceed the time, geographic, product or service, or other

limitations permitted by applicable Law in any jurisdiction, then any court is expressly empowered to reform such covenant, and such covenant shall be deemed reformed, in such jurisdiction to the maximum time, geographic, product or service, or other limitations permitted by applicable Law. The covenants contained in this Section 7.10 and each provision hereof are severable and distinct covenants and provisions. The invalidity or unenforceability of any such covenant or provision as written shall not invalidate or render unenforceable the remaining covenants or provisions hereof, and any such invalidity or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such covenant or provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 9.4 Certain Limitations. The party making a claim for indemnification under this Article IX is referred to as the “Indemnified Party” and the party against whom such claims are asserted under this Article IX is referred to as the “Indemnifying Party”. The indemnification provided for in Section 9.2 and Section 9.3 shall be subject to the following limitations:

(a)The Members shall not be liable to the Buyer Indemnified Parties for indemnification under Section 9.2(a) until the aggregate amount of all Losses in respect of indemnification under such section exceeds $225,000 (the “Basket”), in which event the Members shall be liable for the full amount of all such Losses (i.e. from and including the first dollar of such Losses); provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing in this Section 9.4(a), the Basket shall not apply to (i) any claims arising from fraud on the part of the Members in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (ii) any claim as to which the Buyer Indemnified Parties may be entitled to indemnification under Section 9.2(a) in respect of claims arising out of any breach of any of the Seller Fundamental Representations or SOL Representations made by the Members or the Company.

(b)The amount of all Losses for which the Members shall be liable pursuant to Section 9.2(a) shall be capped at an aggregate amount equal to twenty-five percent (25%) of the Aggregate Consideration (the “Cap”); provided, however, that the Cap shall not apply to any

(i) any claims arising from fraud on the part of the Members in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (ii) Losses for which indemnification is sought under Section 9.2(a) in respect of claims arising out of any breach of any of the Fundamental Representations or SOL Representations made by the Members or the Company.

(c)Buyer shall not be liable to the Member Indemnified Parties for indemnification under Section 9.3(a) until the aggregate amount of all Losses in respect of indemnification under such section exceeds an amount equal to the Basket, in which event Buyer shall be liable for the full amount of all such Losses (i.e. from and including the first dollar of such Losses); provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing in this Section 9.4(c), the Basket shall not apply to (i) any claims arising from fraud on the part of Buyer in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (ii) any claim as to which the Member Indemnified Parties may be entitled to indemnification under Section 9.3(a) in respect of claims arising out of any breach of any of the Fundamental Representations of Buyer.

(d)The amount of all Losses for which Buyer shall be liable pursuant to Section 9.3(a) shall be limited to the Cap; provided, however, that the Cap shall not apply to (i) any claims arising from fraud on the part of Buyer in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (ii) any Losses for which indemnification is sought under Section 9.3(a) in respect of claims arising out of any breach of any of the Fundamental Representations of Buyer; provided further, that in no event shall Buyer be liable to the Member Indemnified Parties for indemnification under Section 9.3(a) in an aggregate amount in excess of the Upfront Amount.

(e)Payments by an Indemnifying Party pursuant to Section 9.2 or Section 9.3 in respect of any Loss shall be limited to the amount of any liability or damage that remains after deducting therefrom any insurance proceeds and any indemnity, contribution or other similar payment actually received by the Indemnified Party (or the Company) in respect of any such claim after deducting all related reasonable and out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees, expenses and other costs of recovery (including any deductible amount) and any resultant increase in insurance premiums. The Indemnified Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to recover under insurance policies or indemnity, contribution or other similar agreements for any Losses prior to seeking indemnification under this Agreement.

(f)In no event shall any Indemnifying Party be liable to any Indemnified Party for any punitive or special damages relating to the breach or alleged breach of this Agreement except to the extent awarded to a third party; provided, that the foregoing shall not limit any Indemnifying Party’s liability for damages that were probable or reasonably foreseeable and were a direct result of a breach or alleged breach of this Agreement.

(g)Each Indemnified Party shall take, and cause its Affiliates to take, all commercially reasonable steps to mitigate any Loss upon becoming aware of any event or circumstance that would be reasonably expected to, or does, give rise thereto; provided, however, that this subsection (h) shall neither expand nor limit the obligations of the parties to so mitigate under applicable Law.

(a)Third-Party Claims. If any Indemnified Party receives notice of the assertion or commencement of any action, suit, claim or other legal proceeding made or brought by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of a party to this Agreement or a Representative of the foregoing (a “Third-Party Claim”) against such Indemnified Party with respect to which the Indemnifying Party is obligated to provide indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party prompt written notice thereof. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Third-Party Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in, or by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days of receipt of notice of such Third-Party Claim, to assume the defense of any Third-Party Claim at the Indemnifying Party’s expense and by the Indemnifying Party’s own counsel, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in good faith in such defense. In the event that the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third-Party Claim, subject to Section 9.5(b), it shall have the right to take such action as it deems necessary to avoid, dispute, defend, appeal or make counterclaims pertaining to any such Third-Party Claim in the name and on behalf of the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that if (i) the Indemnifying Party elects not to compromise or defend such Third-Party Claim, (ii) the Indemnifying Party fails to notify the Indemnified Party in writing within thirty (30) days of its receipt of notice of such Third-Party Claim of its election to defend as provided in this Agreement, (iii) the Indemnifying Party fails to use reasonable best efforts to

actively and diligently, with legal counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party, conduct the defense of the action, (iv) such Third-Party Claim seeks an injunction or other equitable remedies in respect of the Indemnified Party or its business; (v) such Third-Party Claim is reasonably likely to result in liabilities that, taken with other then existing claims under this Article IX would not be fully indemnified hereunder; (vi) the Indemnified Party has been advised by counsel that an actual or potential conflict exists between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party in connection with the defense of such Third-Party Claim; (vii) such Third- Party Claim seeks a finding or admission of a violation of Law or violation of the rights of any Person by the Indemnified Party; or (viii) such Third-Party Claim relates to Intellectual Property, the Indemnified Party may, but shall not be obligated to, subject to Section 9.5(b), retain separate counsel of its choosing, defend such Third-Party Claim and have the sole power to direct and control such defense (all at the cost and expense of the Indemnifying Parties) and seek indemnification for any and all Losses based upon, arising from or relating to such Third-Party Claim. In the event that the Indemnifying Party defends against a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right, at its own cost and expense, to participate in the defense of such Third-Party Claim with counsel selected by it subject to the Indemnifying Party’s right to control the defense thereof; provided, however, that if such Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that a conflict or potential conflict exists between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party or there may be defenses available to the Indemnified Party that are contrary to, or inconsistent with, those available to the Indemnifying Party, then, in each such event, the fees and expenses of not more than one additional counsel for the Indemnified Party shall be borne by the Indemnifying Party. The Members and Buyer shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any Third-Party Claim, including making available (subject to the provisions of Section 7.2) records relating to such Third-Party Claim and furnishing, without expense (other than reimbursement of actual out-of-pocket expenses) to the defending party, management employees of the non-defending party as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of such Third-Party Claim.

(b)Settlement of Third-Party Claims. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into settlement of any Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), except as provided in this Section 9.5(b). If a firm offer is made to settle a Third-Party Claim without leading to liability or the creation of a financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party and provides, in customary form, for the unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all liabilities and obligations in connection with such Third-Party Claim and the Indemnifying Party desires to accept and agree to such offer, the Indemnifying Party shall give written notice to that effect to the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer within ten (10) calendar days after its receipt of such notice, the Indemnified Party may continue to contest or defend such Third-Party Claim and in such event, the maximum liability of the Indemnifying Party as to such Third-Party Claim shall not exceed the amount of such settlement offer. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer and also fails to assume defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may settle the Third-Party Claim upon the terms set forth in such firm offer to settle such Third- Party Claim. If the Indemnified Party has assumed the defense pursuant to Section 9.5(a), it shall not agree to any settlement without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), except with respect to Third-Party Claims related to Intellectual Property.

(c)Direct Claims. Any claim by an Indemnified Party on account of a Loss which does not result from a Third-Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”) shall be asserted by the Indemnified Party giving the Indemnifying Party prompt written notice thereof. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Direct Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) calendar days after its receipt of such notice to respond in writing to such Direct Claim. During such thirty

(30)calendar day period, the Indemnified Party shall allow the Indemnifying Party and its professional advisors to investigate the matter or circumstance alleged to give rise to the Direct Claim, and whether and to what extent any amount is payable in respect of the Direct Claim and the Indemnified Party shall assist the Indemnifying Party’s investigation by giving such information and assistance (including access to the Company’s premises and personnel and the right to examine and copy any accounts, documents or records) as the Indemnifying Party or any of its professional advisors may reasonably request. If the Indemnifying Party does not so respond within such thirty (30)-calendar day period, the Losses identified in the notice of Direct Claim will be conclusively deemed a liability of the Members under Section 9.2.

Section 9.6 Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments. All indemnification payments made under this Agreement shall be treated by the parties as an adjustment to the Closing Date Consideration for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.

Section 9.7 Exclusive Remedies. Subject to Section 11.12, the parties acknowledge and agree that their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims (other than claims arising from fraud on the part of a party hereto in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article IX. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted under Law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement it may have against the other parties hereto and their Affiliates and each of their respective Representatives arising under or based upon any Law, except pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article IX. Nothing in this Section 9.7 shall limit any Person’s right to seek and obtain any equitable relief to which any Person shall be entitled pursuant to Section 11.12 or to seek any remedy on account of fraud by any party hereto.

(a)In the event that Buyer has a claim for indemnification against the Members pursuant to this Article IX, Buyer shall be entitled to recover the amount of such claim and/or payment (i) first from the Escrow Fund, (ii) then, to the extent the Escrow Fund is insufficient, by set off against the First Contingent Payment or the Second Contingent Payment, if payable, and

(iii) finally, to the extent the amount of such claim and/or payment exceeds the amount of the

(b)On the date that is eighteen (18) months after the Closing Date, subject to the terms and conditions of the Escrow Agreement, the Escrow Agent shall distribute to the Members from the Escrow Fund (based on the updated Allocation Schedule delivered pursuant to Section 9.8(c)) an amount, if any, equal to the remaining balance of the Escrow Fund less the sum of (a) the amounts of the Second Escrow Deposit and the Third Escrow Deposit, if any, (b) any amounts with respect to which Buyer is entitled to, but has not yet received, indemnification, pursuant to Section 9.2, and (c) the amount of any unresolved claims for indemnification as of such date.

(c)On the date that is twelve (12) months after the Second Escrow Deposit, subject to the terms and conditions of the Escrow Agreement, the Escrow Agent shall distribute to the Members from the Escrow Fund (based on the updated Allocation Schedule delivered pursuant to Section 9.8(c)) an amount, if any, equal to the remaining balance of the Escrow Fund less the sum of (a) the amount of the Third Escrow Deposit, if any, (b) any amounts with respect to which Buyer is entitled to, but has not yet received, indemnification, pursuant to Section 9.2, and (c) the amount of any unresolved claims for indemnification as of such date.

(e)Notwithstanding the foregoing, at least five (5) Business Days prior to any distribution of the Escrow Fund to the Members pursuant to this Section 9.8, the Members shall deliver to Buyer and the Escrow Agent an updated Allocation Schedule setting forth the portion of such distribution payable to each Member in accordance with the Company Operating Agreement as of immediately prior to the Closing.

Section 9.9 Effect of Investigation. The representations, warranties and covenants of the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification with respect thereto, shall not be affected or deemed waived by reason of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party (including by any of its Representatives) or by reason of the fact that the Indemnified Party or any of its Representatives knew or should have known that any such representation or warranty is, was or might be inaccurate.

(b)if an Event of Default has occurred and remains uncured for the respective cure periods set forth in the Loan Documents, by Buyer, for any reason, in its sole discretion, at any time during the Buyer Acquisition Option Term but prior to delivery of the Buyer Acquisition Notice;

(c)by Buyer, if (i) there shall have been a breach in any material respect of any representation and warranty in this Agreement of the Company or the Members, or (ii) the Company or the Members shall not have performed or complied in any material respect with any material covenant or material agreement of the Company or the Members contained in this Agreement, such that the conditions set forth in Section 8.2(a) and Section 8.2(b) (as applicable) would be incapable of being satisfied by the Termination Date (as defined below);

(d)by the Members, if (i) there shall have been a breach in any material respect of any representation and warranty in this Agreement of Buyer, or (ii) Buyer shall not have performed or complied in any material respect with any material covenant or material agreement of Buyer, such that the conditions set forth in Section 8.3(a) and Section 8.3(b) (as applicable) would be incapable of being satisfied by the Termination Date;

(e)by Buyer if the Closing shall not have occurred before the date that is one hundred eighty (180) days after the delivery of an Acquisition Notice pursuant to Section 2.1 (or such later date as may be mutually agreed to be writing by the parties) (the “Termination Date”); provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 10.1(e): (i) shall not be available to Buyer if its willful action or willful failure to act has been a principal cause of or resulted in the failure of the Closing to occur on or before such date and such action or failure to act constitutes a breach of this Agreement or (ii) shall be extended for an additional sixty

(60) days if the only condition(s) to Closing that remain unsatisfied at such time are as set forth in Section 8.1;

(f)by the Members if the Closing shall not have been consummated before the Termination Date; provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 10.1(f): (i) shall not be available to the Members if the willful action or willful failure to act of the Company or either Member has been a principal cause of or resulted in the failure of the Closing to occur on or before such date and such action or failure to act constitutes a breach of this Agreement or (ii) shall be extended for an additional sixty (60) days if the only condition(s) to Closing that remain unsatisfied at such time are as set forth in Section 8.1;

(g)by the Members or Buyer if a Governmental Authority shall have issued an order, decree or ruling or taken any other action (including the failure to have taken an action), in any case having the effect of permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the Closing, which order, decree, ruling or other action is final and nonappealable;

Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prevent any party from electing not to exercise any right it may have to terminate this Agreement and, instead, seeking any remedies, including equitable relief (including specific performance), to which it would otherwise be entitled in the event of breach of any other party hereto.

Section 11.1 Expenses. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all costs and expenses, including fees and disbursements of counsel, financial advisors and accountants, incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the party incurring such costs and expenses, whether or not the Closing shall have occurred.
