The Buyer and Carlisle shall agree, promptly after the appointment of the Accounting Firm, on the process and procedures governing the resolution of any disputed items by the Accounting Firm; provided, that if the Buyer and Carlisle fail to agree on such process and procedures within 10 days immediately following the appointment of the Accounting Firm, then such process and procedures shall be determined by the Accounting Firm.

In a potential dispute resolution procedure pursuant to this Section 2.6(b), all prior discussions related thereto shall, unless otherwise agreed by Carlisle and the Buyer, be governed by Rule 408 of the Federal Rules of Evidence and neither party may discuss, use or rely upon the other party’s conduct or statements during such dispute resolution or in any communication with the Accounting Firm.

The Accounting Firm’s determination shall be instructed to be based solely on the written reports submitted to the Accounting Firm by

Carlisle and the Buyer and oral submissions by Carlisle and the Buyer at meetings held in compliance with the prior sentence (i.e., not on independent review) and on the definitions and other terms included herein; provided, however, that in resolving a disputed item, the Accounting Firm may not assign a value to any particular item greater than the greatest value for such item or less than the smallest value for such item, in each case, claimed by the Buyer or Carlisle in the Proposed Closing Date Calculations or the Purchase Price Dispute Notice. Absent fraud, intentional misconduct or manifest error, the Accounting Firm’s decision with respect to the matters in dispute shall be final and binding on the Parties, and any Party may seek to enforce such decision in a court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the dispute resolution mechanism contained in this Section 2.6 shall be the exclusive mechanism for resolving disputes regarding the adjustment, if any, to the Estimated Purchase Price.

(iv)The terms of appointment and engagement of the Accounting Firm shall be as agreed upon between Carlisle and the Buyer, and any associated engagement fees shall be initially borne 50% by Carlisle and 50% by the Buyer; provided, however, that such fees shall ultimately be borne as set forth below. All other costs and expenses incurred by the Parties in connection with resolving any dispute hereunder before the Accounting Firm shall be borne by the Party incurring such cost and expense. The fees and disbursements of the Accounting Firm shall ultimately be allocated between Carlisle and the Buyer in the same proportion that the aggregate amount of the disputed items submitted to the Accounting Firm that are unsuccessfully disputed by each such Party (as finally determined by the Accounting Firm) bears to the total amount of such disputed items so submitted. Such determination of the Accounting Firm shall be conclusive and binding upon the Parties. The Proposed Closing Date Calculations and the Closing Statement shall be revised as appropriate to reflect the resolution of any objections thereto pursuant to this Section 2.6(b) and, as so revised, such Proposed Closing Date Calculations and such Closing Statement shall be deemed to set forth the final Net Working Capital, Net Working Capital Adjustment, Cash and Cash Equivalents, Cash Adjustment, Closing Date Funded Indebtedness, Unpaid Seller Expenses and Purchase Price, in each case, for all purposes hereunder (including the determination of the Actual Adjustment).

(v)The Buyer, on the one hand, shall, and shall cause the Group Companies to, and the Sellers, on the other hand, shall, provide to each other (and their respective accountants and other representatives) such data and information as the other Party may reasonably request (including reasonable access to the Group Companies’ personnel involved with the preparation of the Proposed Closing Date Calculations) in connection with preparation and review of the Proposed Closing Date Calculations, the Purchase Price Dispute Notice, if any, and the Closing Statement (and each Party and its accountants and other representatives shall be permitted to make copies as they see reasonably necessary) at reasonable times at any time during preparation and review of the Proposed Closing Date Calculations and the Closing Statement and the resolution of any objections or disputes with respect thereto.

(c)Adjustment to Estimated Purchase Price.

(i)If the Actual Adjustment is a positive amount, then within three Business Days after the date on which the Purchase Price is finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.6, the Buyer shall pay, or cause to be paid, to Carlisle, on behalf of the Sellers, an

aggregate amount equal to such positive amount by wire transfer or delivery of immediately available funds to an account or accounts specified by Carlisle.

(ii)If the Actual Adjustment is a negative amount, then within three Business Days after the date on which the Purchase Price is finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.6, Carlisle, on behalf of the Sellers, shall pay, or cause to be paid, to the Buyer an aggregate amount equal to the absolute value of such negative amount by wire transfer or delivery of immediately available funds to an account or accounts specified by the Buyer.

(iii)For the avoidance of doubt, the Cash Adjustment as finally determined in accordance with this Section 2.6 shall be included in determining the Actual Adjustment payment under this Section 2.6(c).

(iv)Any amounts which become payable pursuant to this Section 2.6(c) will constitute an adjustment to the Purchase Price for all purposes.

(d)Accounting Principles. The Estimated Purchase Price, Proposed Closing Date Calculations, the Actual Adjustment and the determinations and calculations contained therein shall be prepared and calculated on a consolidated basis for the Group Companies in accordance with the Accounting Principles, except that such statements, calculations and determinations shall not include any purchase accounting or other adjustment arising out of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

The Group Companies, (i) have provided true, correct and complete copies of all Real Property Leases to the Buyer, (ii) have paid in full all base rents, deposits and additional rents due pursuant to such Real Property Leases (and no security deposit or portion thereof has been applied in respect of a breach or default under such Real Property Lease that has not been redeposited in full), (iii) have not received any written notice that the fee owner of any Leased Real Property has made any assignment, mortgage, pledge or hypothecation of such Leased Real Property or the rents or use fees due thereunder, (iv) is not in breach or default under any Real Property Lease, and (v) to Sellers’ knowledge, there is no default by the other party to any Leased Real Property under the applicable Real Property Lease. No Group Company has subleased, licensed, or otherwise granted to any Person other than the Group Companies, whether written or oral, the right to use or occupy any Leased Real Property and the Group Companies are the only occupants of the Leased Real Property. Each Real Property Lease is valid and binding on the Group Company which is a party to it, enforceable in accordance with its terms (subject to proper authorization and execution of such Real Property Lease by the other party thereto and to the Bankruptcy and Equity Exception). Except as set forth on Schedule 3.22(b), (i) the enforceability of the Real Property Leases will not be impaired in any material respect by the execution or delivery of this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will entitle the other party to any Real Property Lease to terminate such lease prior to the scheduled expiration thereof, and (iii) none of the Group Companies are currently participating in any discussions or negotiations regarding termination of any Real Property Lease prior to the scheduled expiration of such lease by reason of a breach or alleged breach by the tenant thereunder.

All of the improvements on the Real Property are (i) adequately maintained and in good repair and condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted, (ii) free from any material latent and patent defects and (iii) sufficient for the operation of the Acquired Business currently conducted on the Real Property. The Group Companies have not received any written notice that the improvements on the Real Property, and to the Sellers’ knowledge, none of the improvements on the Real Property, (A) are not in compliance with all applicable Laws, including those pertaining to zoning, building and the disabled, or (B) encroach on the real property of any other Person.

Each of the Group Companies, as applicable, enjoys peaceful and undisturbed possession of the Real Property. In the past three years, (x) there has not been any interruption in the delivery of adequate service of any utilities required in the operation of the Acquired Business currently conducted on the Real Property and (y) none of the Group Companies have experienced any disruptions to its operations arising out of any recurring loss of electrical power, flooding, limitations to access to public sewer and water or restrictions on septic service at any Real Property, except, in the case of each of (x) and (y) as is not, and would not reasonably be expected to be, individually or in the aggregate, material to the Group Companies taken as a whole. To the Sellers’ knowledge, there are no facts or conditions affecting the improvements on the Real Property that would reasonably be expected to interfere with the current use, occupancy or operation thereof.

(d)There are no contractual or legal restrictions that preclude or restrict the ability to use any Real Property by the Group Companies for the current or contemplated use of such Real Property. There are no outstanding options or rights of first refusal or rights of first offer to purchase any of the Real Property, any portion thereof or any interest therein or any similar agreement that would have priority over the Buyer’s right to title of, or a leasehold interest in, the Real Property or any portion thereof or interest therein upon consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(e)No parcel of Real Property is subject to any Order to be sold or is being condemned, expropriated or otherwise taken by any public authority with or without payment of compensation therefore, nor, to the knowledge of the Sellers, has any such condemnation, expropriation or taking been proposed.

(f)Other than the Real Property, the Group Companies (i) do not own, lease, occupy or otherwise use any real property, and (ii) do not have any rights or options to own, lease, occupy, or otherwise use any real property.

The Buyer is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing (or the equivalent thereof) under the Laws of its respective jurisdiction of formation, organization or incorporation, as applicable, except with respect to good standing where the failure to be in good standing (or the equivalent thereof) would not prevent or materially delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 4.6    Financing.

(a)As of the date hereof, the Buyer has received and delivered to the Sellers true and correct copies of (i) an executed equity commitment letter, dated as of the date hereof (including all exhibits, schedules, and annexes thereto, collectively, the “Equity Commitment Letter”), from the Guarantor, pursuant to which the Guarantor has committed to provide equity financing in an aggregate principal amount set forth therein, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein (the “Equity Financing”), which Equity Commitment Letter provides that the Sellers are third-party beneficiaries thereto and (ii) an executed debt commitment letter, dated as of the date hereof, (including all exhibits, schedules, and annexes thereto and, together with the debt fee letters referred to therein (with fee amounts, pricing caps and other economic terms redacted, so long as such redactions do not cover terms that would reasonably be expected to affect the conditionality, amount, timing, availability or termination of the Debt Financing), as the same may be amended, modified, supplemented or replaced solely in accordance with the terms hereof, the “Debt Commitment Letter” and, together with the Equity Commitment Letter, the “Commitment Letters”), from the Debt Financing Sources, pursuant to which the Debt Financing Sources have committed to provide debt financing in the aggregate principal amount set forth therein, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein (the “Debt Financing” and, together with the Equity Financing, the “Financing”). None of the Commitment Letters has been amended or modified prior to the date of this Agreement, and as of the date of this Agreement no such amendment or modification is contemplated (other than as expressly contemplated therein as of the date hereof, including to add additional lenders, lead arrangers bookrunners, syndication agents or similar entities as parties thereto who had not executed the Debt Commitment Letter as of the date hereof), and as of the date of this Agreement the respective commitments contained in the Commitment Letters have not been withdrawn or rescinded in any respect.

(b)As of the date hereof there are no side letters or Contracts to which the Buyer is a party that impose conditions on the funding of the Financing other than as expressly set forth in the Commitment Letters. The Buyer has fully paid (or caused to be paid) any and all commitment fees or other fees required by the Commitment Letters to be paid on or prior to the date hereof and will pay all additional fees thereunder as they become due in accordance with the terms of the Debt Commitment Letter; provided, however, that any payment due and payable on the Closing Date may, in the discretion of the Buyer, be funded contemporaneously with the Closing and subject to the satisfaction of the other funding conditions in respect of the Financing on the Closing Date.

As of the date hereof, no event has occurred which, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would reasonably be expected to (i) constitute a default or breach on the part of the Buyer, (ii) constitute a failure to satisfy a condition precedent on the part of the Buyer or, (iii) to the knowledge of the Buyer, result in any portion of the Financing being unavailable on the Closing Date, assuming the conditions to the Financing are satisfied. As of the date hereof, the Buyer has no reason to believe that any of the conditions to the Financing contemplated by the

Commitment Letters applicable to it will not be satisfied on the Closing Date. Assuming the conditions in Sections 6.1 and 6.2 are satisfied and the Financing is funded in accordance with the Commitment Letters (including any flex provision), the Buyer will have on the Closing Date funds sufficient to (i) pay the aggregate Estimated Purchase Price and the other payments under Article 2 and (ii) pay any and all fees and expenses required to be paid by the Buyer and its Affiliates (including the Group Companies following the Closing) in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Financing (collectively, the “Financing Purposes”).

Section 5.2    Access to Information. From and after the date hereof until the earlier of the Closing Date or the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, upon reasonable notice, and subject to any restrictions contained in the confidentiality agreements to which any Group Company is subject (in which case the Sellers shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make substitute access arrangements), the Sellers shall, and shall cause each of the Group Companies to, provide to the Buyer and its Representatives reasonable access to all books and records (including the ability to make copies thereof), employees, facilities and properties of or related to the Acquired Business (in a manner so as to not interfere unreasonably with the normal business operations of the Group Companies). All of such information shall be treated as “Confidential Information” (as defined in the Confidentiality Agreement) pursuant to the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement, the provisions of which are by this reference hereby incorporated herein and the Buyer agrees that it shall be bound by the Confidentiality Agreement to the same extent as LSF Investments, LLC solely with respect to such information; provided, that the obligations of the Buyer and their Affiliates under the Confidentiality Agreement shall terminate and cease to be in effect from and after the Closing.

(a)Subject to the terms and conditions herein provided, the Buyer and each Seller shall use reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all action and to do, or cause to be done, all things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective as promptly as practicable the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including the satisfaction of the Closing conditions set forth in Article 6), including with respect to the Sellers obtaining and maintaining all consents from third parties that are necessary, proper or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Buyer shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain consents of all Governmental Entities and other Persons necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and the Buyer and each Seller shall provide all reasonable assistance requested by the Buyer or Seller in connection therewith. All HSR Act filing fees and any other merger-control filing fees shall be borne by 50% by the Buyer and 50% by Carlisle. Each Party shall make an appropriate filing, if necessary, pursuant to the HSR Act (or any similar non-U.S. Laws) with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement promptly (and in the case of any filing pursuant to the HSR Act, within 10 Business Days) after the date of this Agreement and shall supply as promptly as practicable to the appropriate Governmental Entities any additional information and documentary material that may be requested pursuant to the HSR Act (or any similar non-U.S. Laws). Without limiting the foregoing, the Sellers, the Buyer and their respective Affiliates shall not extend any waiting period or comparable period under the HSR Act (or any similar non-U.S. Laws) or enter into any agreement with any Governmental Entity not to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, except with the prior written consent of the other Parties. The

Buyer shall agree to take any of the following actions as may be required by any Governmental Entity to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement: (A) selling, divesting, licensing or otherwise disposing of, or holding separate and otherwise agreeing to sell, divest, license or otherwise dispose of, any entities, assets or facilities of the Group Companies after the Closing, (B) terminating, amending or assigning existing relationships and contractual rights and obligations (other than terminations that would result in a breach of a contractual obligation to a third party), or (C) amending, assigning or terminating existing licenses or other agreements (other than terminations that would result in a breach of a license or such other agreement with a third party) and entering into such new licenses or other agreements, except, in each case of the foregoing clauses (A) through (C), as would have a material and adverse effect on the Acquired Business taken a whole or the Buyer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Buyer, its Affiliates, or any portfolio company of any investment fund that is advised or managed by any Affiliate of the Buyer shall be required to take any such actions described in the foregoing clauses (A) through (C), other than solely with respect to the Group Companies after the Closing pursuant to the foregoing sentence. The Buyer shall resist and defend against any Action to challenge the consummation of the transactions consummated by this Agreement, except as would have a material and adverse effect on the Acquired Business taken as a whole or the Buyer.

(b)The Parties shall file a joint voluntary notice pursuant to 31 C.F.R. § 800.501 (the “Notice”), and shall, in cooperation with each other, (i) promptly, but in any event not more than fifteen (15) Business Days after the date hereof, prepare and file a draft Notice for review by CFIUS. Each of the Parties shall, and shall cause each of their respective Affiliates to, promptly provide CFIUS with any additional or supplemental information requested by CFIUS on such draft Notice, and promptly submit the final Notice after resolution of all questions or comments received from CFIUS staff or confirmation that CFIUS has no further comments on the draft Notice; (ii) promptly respond, and in any event respond no later than as required by CFIUS, to any request for additional information, documents or other materials received after filing of the final Notice; and (iii) take commercially reasonable action to overcome objections, national security concerns or requests for mitigation which may be raised by CFIUS. Without limiting the foregoing, each of the Parties shall, in connection with the CFIUS review, (A) cooperate in all respects and consult with each other in connection with the preparation and consideration of the draft and final Notice, including by allowing each such other Party to have an opportunity to review in advance and comment on drafts of filings and submissions; (B) promptly inform each other Party of any substantive communication received from, or given to, CFIUS, by promptly providing copies to the other of any such written communications, except as requested by CFIUS to remain confidential from any other Party; and (C) permit each other Party to review in advance any substantive communication that it gives to, and consult with each other in advance of any meeting, scheduled substantive phone call or conference with CFIUS, and to the extent not prohibited by CFIUS, give each such other Party the opportunity to attend and participate in any in-person meetings with CFIUS, in each of clauses (A), (B) and (C) of this Section 5.3(b), subject to confidentiality considerations contemplated by the DPA or required by CFIUS and redactions for personally identifiable information or business confidential information. Such efforts shall not require the Parties to agree to take or accept any condition or mitigation measures proposed by CFIUS that (1) in a party’s reasonable business judgment, would or would reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on its business, operations or prospects, or (2) are not conditioned upon the

consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby. The Buyer will pay the statutory filing fee associated with filing the Notice.

(c)The Seller shall, as promptly as practicable following the date hereof, and at least sixty (60) calendar days prior to the Closing Date, prepare and file with the U.S. Department of State’s Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (“DDTC”) a notification regarding the intended sale of the Group Companies, as applicable, pursuant to 22 C.F.R. § 122.4(b). The Seller shall, within five calendar days following the Closing Date, submit or cause to be submitted to DDTC all information required by 22 C.F.R. § 122.4(a) regarding the divestiture of the Group Companies, as applicable. In addition, the Buyer shall, within five calendar days following the Closing Date, submit or cause to be submitted to DDTC a new statement of registration for the Group Companies, as applicable, as required by 22 C.F.R. § 122.2 and shall notify DDTC of such submission by email at pm-dtcc-mad@state.gov (all DDTC filings and submissions, collectively, the “ITAR Filings”). The Parties shall undertake to act promptly and cooperatively in providing all such information required for the purposes of the ITAR Filings.

(d)Each Party shall promptly notify the other Parties of any communication it or its Affiliates receives from any Governmental Entity relating to the matters that are the subject of this Agreement and permit the other Parties to review in advance any proposed communication by it to any Governmental Entity. No Party shall participate in any meeting or substantive conversation with any Governmental Entity in respect of any filings, investigation or other inquiry unless it consults with the other Parties in advance and, to the extent permitted by such Governmental Entity, gives the other Parties the opportunity to attend and participate at such meeting or conversation. Each Party will provide the other Parties with copies of all correspondence, filings or communications between it or any of its Representatives, on the one hand, and any Governmental Entity or members of its staff, on the other hand, with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(e)The Parties may, as they deem advisable and necessary, redact or withhold as necessary to address reasonable privilege or confidentiality concerns, the materials provided to the other under this Section 5.3, and designate any competitively sensitive materials as “outside counsel only.” Materials designated as “outside counsel only” and the information contained therein shall be given only to outside counsel of the recipient and will not be disclosed by such outside counsel to employees, officers, or directors of the recipient without the advance written consent of the party providing such materials. In addition, subject to applicable Law, the Parties shall consult and cooperate with each other in advance in connection with any analyses, appearances, presentations, memoranda, briefs, arguments, and proposals made or submitted to any Governmental Entity regarding the transactions contemplated by this Agreement by or on behalf of any Party.

(f)Prior to the Closing or termination of this Agreement, the Buyer shall not, and shall cause its controlled Affiliates not to, acquire or agree to acquire, by merging with or into or consolidating with, or by purchasing a portion of the assets of or equity in, or by any other manner, any business or any corporation, partnership, association or other business organization or division thereof, or otherwise acquire or agree to acquire any assets or equity interests, if the entering into of a definitive agreement relating to, or the consummation of such acquisition, merger or consolidation would reasonably be expected to: (i) impose any material delay in the obtaining of, or materially increase the risk of not obtaining, any consents of any

Governmental Entity necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting period; (ii) materially increase the risk of any Governmental Entity seeking or entering an order prohibiting the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (iii) materially increase the risk of not being able to remove any such order on appeal or otherwise; or (iv) materially delay or prevent the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 5.4    Contact with Customers, Suppliers and Other Business Relations. During the period from the date of this Agreement until the earlier of the Closing or the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, the Buyer hereby agrees that it is not authorized to and shall not (and shall not permit any of its Representatives or Affiliates to) contact any employee, customer, supplier, distributor or other material business relation of any Seller, any Group Company or any of their Affiliates, regarding their business with any Seller or any Affiliate of any Seller (including the Acquired Business) or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement without the prior written (including by e-mail) consent of Carlisle; provided, that with respect to any such contact with any employee or supplier, such consent of Carlisle shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, further, that nothing in this Section 5.4 shall restrict the Buyer or its Representatives or Affiliates from (i) engaging in any communications in the ordinary course of business unrelated to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (ii) contacting any employee of the Group Companies or any Seller related to the Acquired Business in order to allow the Buyer to ensure an orderly transition and integration of the Group Companies following the Closing and to allow the Buyer to discharge its obligations under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall this Section 5.4 apply to any portfolio company of any investment fund that is advised or managed by any Affiliate of the Buyer.

Section 5.5    Notifications. From and after the date of this Agreement until the Closing, the Sellers shall deliver to the Buyer prompt notice of any matter, event, circumstance, change or effect arising after the date hereof if, and only if, such matter, event, circumstance, change or effect has caused, or would reasonably be expected to cause, any of the conditions set forth in Section 6.2(a) or Section 6.2(b) not to be satisfied as of the Closing; provided, that no such notification shall impact the Buyer’s right to assert a failure of the conditions set forth in Section 6.2(a) or Section 6.2(b). From and after the date of this Agreement until the Closing, the Buyer shall deliver to the Sellers prompt notice of any matter, event, circumstance, change or effect arising after the date hereof if, and only if, such matter, event, circumstance, change or effect has caused, or would reasonably be expected to cause, any of the conditions set forth in Section 6.3(a) or Section 6.3(b) not to be satisfied as of the Closing; provided, that no such notification shall impact the Sellers’ right to assert a failure of the conditions set forth in Section 6.3(a) or Section 6.3(b).

(a)The Buyer agrees that all rights to indemnification or exculpation now existing in favor of the directors, managers, and officers of each Group Company, as provided in each such Group Company’s Governing Documents or otherwise in effect as of the Closing Date with respect to any matters occurring prior to the Closing Date, shall survive the Closing and shall continue in full force and effect and that each Group Company will perform and discharge such Group Company’s obligations to provide such indemnity and exculpation after the Closing,

in each case as a last resort following the unavailability of comparable indemnification from the Sellers and their Affiliates or coverage under the policy to be maintained or purchased pursuant to Section 5.6(b). The indemnification and Liability limitation or exculpation provisions of each Group Company’s Governing Documents shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified after the Closing Date in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of individuals who, as of the Closing Date or at any time prior to the Closing Date, were directors, managers or officers of the Group Companies, unless such modification is required by applicable Law.

(b)The Sellers shall, at the Sellers’ expense and for a period of six years after the Closing, maintain directors’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage for the benefit of those Persons who are covered by the Group Companies’ directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies as of the date hereof or at the Closing, in an amount and scope and subject to a retention at least as favorable as the Sellers’ and its Affiliates’ existing policies with respect to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Closing (the “D&O Policy”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, subject to the insurer’s rights under the D&O Policy and subject to any requirements of any applicable Group Company’s Governing Documents, from and after the Closing, the Buyer shall have the right to control any defense or settlement of any threatened or actual claim against the Group Companies or Persons associated with the Group Companies prior to Closing (as directors, managers, officers, employees and agents, or otherwise) for which coverage may be available under the D&O Policy (the “Group Companies Defendants”), including without limitation, the right to appoint separate counsel for any of the Group Companies Defendants in the event there is a claim against the Group Companies Defendants and other Persons insured under the D&O Policy. In the event that the insurer under the D&O Policy declines to approve the appointment of such separate counsel for the Group Companies Defendants, the Buyer and the Sellers shall cooperate in good faith with respect to the defense and settlement of any such matter, and the Buyer and the Sellers shall allocate any costs within the retention of the D&O Policy between the Buyer and the Sellers based upon the relative legal and financial exposures of the Group Companies Defendants and any other defendants insured under the D&O Policy. In the event of any claim against the Group Companies Defendants for which coverage may be available under the D&O Policy, the Sellers shall (i) use commercially reasonable efforts to pursue coverage for such claim on behalf of the Group Companies Defendants, (ii) provide all information reasonably requested by the Buyer or the Group Companies Defendants with respect to the D&O Policy and any claim for coverage under the D&O Policy, and (iii) promptly pay to or on behalf of the Group Companies Defendants any proceeds of the D&O Policy received by the Sellers or their Affiliates to the extent such proceeds are paid pursuant to any claim on the D&O Policy on behalf of the Group Companies Defendants.

(c)The directors and officers of the Group Companies entitled to the indemnification, Liability limitation, exculpation and insurance set forth in this Section 5.6 are intended to be third-party beneficiaries of this Section 5.6. This Section 5.6 shall survive the consummation of the Closing and shall be binding on all successors and assigns of the Buyer and the Sellers.

Section 5.7    Documents and Information. After the Closing Date, the Buyer shall, and shall cause the Group Companies to, until the seventh anniversary of the Closing Date, retain all books, records and other documents pertaining to the Group Companies in existence on

the Closing Date and, subject to any restrictions contained in the confidentiality agreements to which the Buyer is subject (in which case the Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make substitute access arrangements), make the same available for inspection and copying by the Sellers (at the Sellers’ expense) during normal business hours of the Buyer or the Group Companies, as applicable, upon reasonable request and upon reasonable notice (in a manner so as to not unreasonably interfere with the normal business operations of the Group Companies). No such books, records or documents shall be destroyed until after the seventh anniversary of the Closing Date by the Buyer, the Group Companies or any of their Affiliates, without first advising the Sellers in writing and giving the Sellers a reasonable opportunity to make a copy thereof.

Section 5.8    Employee Benefits Matters. During the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending no earlier than the first anniversary of the Closing Date, the Buyer shall provide employees of the Group Companies who continue to be employed by the Buyer or the Group Companies with (i) not less than the same base salary or hourly wage rate as provided to such employees immediately prior to the Closing Date, (ii) the severance benefits set forth on Schedule 5.8 and (iii) employee benefits and other compensation (excluding severance benefits, equity or equity-related incentives, retention, change in control, transaction or similar bonuses and arrangements, defined benefit pension, retiree health or welfare benefits, non-qualified retirement benefits, and non-qualified deferred compensation) that are substantially comparable in the aggregate to the benefits and other compensation provided under the Employee Benefit Plans or Foreign Employee Benefit Plans set forth on Schedule 3.11(a). The Buyer further agrees that, from and after the Closing Date, the Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Group Companies to, grant all of their employees credit for any service with the Sellers, the Group Companies or any of their predecessors earned prior to the Closing Date for eligibility, vesting, and benefit accrual and severance benefit determinations under any benefit or compensation plan, program, agreement or arrangement that may be established or maintained by the Buyer, the Group Companies or any of their Affiliates on or after the Closing Date (the “New Plans”), to the same extent as such employee was entitled before the Closing Date to credit for such service under a corresponding Employee Benefit Plan or Foreign Employee Benefit Plan, except (x) for purposes of eligibility to participate and accrue under any defined benefit plan, retiree health or welfare plans, equity or equity-based compensation plans or non-qualified deferred compensation plans or retirement or similar plans, (y) for any purpose where service credit for the applicable period is not provided to participants generally, and (z) to the extent such credit would result in a duplication of benefits. The Sellers represent that all employees of the Group Companies who are eligible for a bonus that is in whole or in part determined based on performance of Sellers or their Affiliates are set forth on Schedule 5.8 (the “Management Bonus Employees”) and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.8, (A) no later than February 15, 2024, the Sellers shall inform the Buyer of all information necessary or appropriate to determine the actual bonus payment due to each Management Bonus Employee who remains employed by the Buyer or its applicable Affiliates on December 31, 2023, calculated in accordance with the bonus plan parameters set forth on Schedule 5.8, and Carlisle, on behalf of the Sellers, shall pay to the Buyer an aggregate amount equal to the excess of each such bonus payment over 100% of the target annual incentive award for each Management Bonus Employee (and such payment by Carlisle shall include any payroll, social security, unemployment and similar Taxes payable in respect of each such cash incentive award that exceeds 100% of the target annual incentive award) and (B) within 30 days following receipt of such payment from Carlisle, the Buyer or its applicable Affiliates shall pay

the cash incentive awards to the Management Bonus Employees who remain employed by the Buyer or its applicable Affiliates on December 31, 2023, calculated in accordance with the bonus plan parameters set forth on Schedule 5.8. In addition, the Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (A) cause to be waived all pre-existing condition exclusions and actively at work requirements and similar limitations, eligibility waiting periods and evidence of insurability requirements under any New Plans to the extent waived or satisfied by an employee under any Employee Benefit Plan or Foreign Employee Benefit Plan as of the Closing Date and (B) cause any deductible, co-insurance and covered out-of-pocket expenses paid on or before the Closing Date by any employee (or covered dependent thereof) of the Group Companies to be taken into account for purposes of satisfying the corresponding deductible, coinsurance and maximum out of pocket provisions after the Closing Date under any applicable New Plan in the plan year of initial participation to the extent taken into account under any substantially comparable Employee Benefit Plan or Foreign Employee Benefit Plan as of the Closing Date; provided, that the Group Companies shall have timely provided to the Buyer sufficient information and documentation for the Buyer to comply with this Section 5.8. The Buyer agrees that the Buyer and the Group Companies shall be solely responsible for satisfying the continuation coverage requirements of Section 4980B of the Code for all individuals who are “M&A qualified beneficiaries” as such term is defined in Treasury Regulations Section 54.4980B-9. The Buyer shall, on the first payroll following the Closing, pay the Transaction Bonuses to the applicable employees of the Group Companies in the amounts as set forth on Schedule 1.1(c). The Parties acknowledge and agree that no provision of this Section 5.8 shall be construed to create any third-party beneficiary rights in any current or former employee, director or consultant of the Group Companies.

Section 5.9    No Public Disclosure. No press release or public announcement related to this Agreement, the Ancillary Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, shall be issued or made by any Party (nor will any Party permit any of its advisors or Affiliates to do any thereof) without the prior written approval of Carlisle and the Buyer, (a) unless, in the reasonable opinion of counsel, such communication is required by applicable Law, in which case Carlisle and the Buyer shall be afforded a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such press release, announcement or communication prior to its issuance, distribution or publication, and (b) except for disclosure made in connection with the enforcement of any right or remedy relating to this Agreement, the Ancillary Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby.

required by applicable Law, the Buyer shall not, and the Buyer shall not permit any of its Affiliates (including after the Closing, for the avoidance of doubt, the Group Companies) to, (i) except as otherwise permitted under this Section 5.10, file, re-file, supplement, or amend any Tax Return of the Group Companies or (ii) voluntarily approach any Governmental Entity regarding any Taxes or Tax Returns of any Group Company, in each case, related to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period to the extent such action could reasonably be expected to result in (or increase the amount of) Pre-Closing Income Taxes or Indemnified Taxes without the prior written consent of Carlisle (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(g)Any refund (including any interest paid or credited by a Governmental Entity with respect thereto) of Pre-Closing Income Taxes or Indemnified Taxes shall be solely the property of the applicable Seller except to the extent any such refund was taken into account in the final determination of Funded Indebtedness. Any other refund (including any interest paid or credited by a Governmental Entity with respect thereto) of Taxes imposed on or with respect to the Group Companies shall be solely the property of the Buyer. Each Party shall forward, and shall cause its Affiliates to forward, to the Party entitled to receive a refund of Tax pursuant to this Section 5.10(g) the amount of such refund within 30 days after such refund is received, net of any reasonable third-party costs or expenses incurred by such Party or its Affiliates in procuring such refund. The Buyer shall cooperate with any reasonable requests of Sellers to file any amended income Tax Return required to be filed in order to obtain such refund of Pre-Closing Income Taxes or Indemnified Taxes.

(h)Each Party shall (and shall cause its respective Affiliates to) cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other Party, in connection with the filing of any Tax Return and any audit, litigation or other proceeding, in each case, with respect to Taxes imposed on or with respect to any Group Company. Such cooperation shall include the retention and the provision of records and information that are reasonably relevant to any such Tax Return or Tax audit, litigation or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any materials provided hereunder. The Parties shall (and shall cause their respective Affiliates (including the Group Companies) to) retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Group Companies relating to a Pre-Closing Tax Period and Straddle Period until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (and, if notified in writing by another Party, any extensions thereof) and abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any Governmental Entity. The Buyer, on the one hand, and Sellers, on the other hand, agree to give the Sellers or the Buyer, respectively, reasonable written notice prior to destroying or discarding any such books and records. The Sellers, the Buyer and the Group Companies further agree, upon request, to use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any Tax authority or any other Person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any Tax that could be imposed on any Party (including with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement).

(i)The Purchase Price, and any other amounts treated as consideration for income Tax purposes, allocated to each Group Company pursuant to Section 2.7 that is an entity disregarded as separate from its owner for U.S. income Tax purposes or for which a Section 338(h)(10) election will be made pursuant to Section 5.10(e)(iii) shall be allocated among the assets deemed to be held by such Group Company in a manner consistent with Section

1.338-6(b) of the Treasury Regulations and the Purchase Price Allocation. Within 30 days after the date on which the Purchase Price is finally determined pursuant to Section 2.6(b), the Buyer shall provide to Carlisle a completed schedule allocating the Purchase Price among the assets in accordance with this Section 5.10(i) (the “Asset Allocation Schedule”). Carlisle shall notify the Buyer of any objection to the Asset Allocation Schedule within 30 days of receipt, and the Buyer and Carlisle shall work together to resolve such objections in good faith, provided, however, that if the Buyer and Carlisle fail to resolve such objections in good faith, each Party shall be entitled to use its own allocation. If the Buyer and Carlisle agree to the Asset Allocation Schedule, (i) the Buyer, the Group Companies, and the Sellers shall file all Tax Returns (including any amended returns or claims for refund) and information reports in a manner consistent with the Asset Allocation Schedule and (ii) any adjustments to the Purchase Price or to other amounts that are included in the amount of consideration for income Tax purposes shall be allocated in a manner consistent with the Asset Allocation Schedule.

(j)Prior to the earlier of (i) December 1, 2023 and (ii) the Closing Date, the Sellers, their Affiliates and CFTR Japan shall take such actions as are required to be taken under Section 311 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware to effectuate the effective restoration of the Delaware certificate of incorporation of CFTR Japan, such that, for U.S. federal income Tax purposes, CFTR Japan will (A) continue to be (1) treated as a “domestic” (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Sections ###-###-####-1(d) and ###-###-####-5(a)) corporation beginning with the date on which it was organized in the United States and (2) a member of a Seller Affiliated Group (pursuant to Code Section 1504) beginning with the date on which CFTR Japan initially became a member of any such Seller Affiliated Group and (B) be a “consolidated target” (within the meaning of Treas. Reg. § 1.338(h)(10)-1(b)(1)) with respect to which the election described in Section 5.10(e)(iii)(A) can be duly and effectively made in connection with the Buyer’s acquisition of the CFTR Equity from Carlisle Holdings pursuant to this Agreement. Each Seller shall (and shall cause its Affiliates to) file all Tax Returns in a manner consistent with this Section 5.10(j) (including, for the avoidance of doubt, all Seller Income Tax Returns).

Section 5.11    Release.

(a)Effective upon Closing, the Buyer, on behalf of itself, the Group Companies, and its and their respective successors and assigns, irrevocably and unconditionally waives, releases and forever discharges the Sellers and their Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, successors and assigns from any and all rights, claims, debts, causes of action, obligations and Liabilities or Losses of any nature or kind, whether direct or indirect, known or unknown, matured or contingent, accrued or unaccrued, liquidated or unliquidated or due or to become due, and whether arising in Law, in equity or otherwise, based upon facts, circumstances or occurrences existing on or prior to Closing; provided, however, that the foregoing release does not cover (and, for purposes of clarity, such matters are not hereby released or discharged) any claims or rights (i) in the event of Fraud, (ii) against any Person that is a natural person in such Person’s capacity as an employee or individual contractor of a Group Company to the extent necessary to prosecute any legal proceeding against such Person relating to the work such Person performed in such capacity for the Group Companies on or prior to the Closing, or (iii) arising under this Agreement or any Ancillary Document.

(b)Effective upon Closing, each Seller, on behalf of itself and each of its Subsidiaries and Affiliates and its and their respective successors and assigns, irrevocably and unconditionally waives, releases and forever discharges the Buyer and the Group Companies and their Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, successors and assigns from any and all rights, claims, debts, causes of action, obligations and Liabilities or Losses of any nature or kind, whether direct or indirect, known or unknown, matured or contingent, accrued or unaccrued, liquidated or unliquidated or due or to become due, and whether arising in Law, in equity or otherwise, based upon facts, circumstances or occurrences existing on or prior to Closing; provided, however, that the foregoing release does not cover (and, for purposes of clarity, such matters are not hereby released or discharged) any claims or rights (i) in the event of Fraud, or (ii) arising under this Agreement, any Ancillary Document, or any agreement set forth on Schedule 3.26(b).

Section 5.12    Buyer’s Financing.

(a)The Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary or advisable to arrange and consummate the Financing at the Closing on the terms and conditions described in or contemplated by the Commitment Letters (including complying with any request exercising so-called “flex” provisions contained therein), including using commercially reasonable efforts to (i) maintain in effect the Commitment Letters (in each case, subject to the permitted amendments, replacements, supplements, modifications, waivers and termination set forth in herein); provided, however, that for the avoidance of doubt, Buyer may amend, replace, supplement or modify the Debt Commitment Letter as expressly contemplated therein as of the date hereof, including to add additional lenders, lead arrangers bookrunners, syndication agents or similar entities as parties thereto who had not executed the Debt Commitment Letter as of the date hereof, (ii) satisfy (or obtain waivers to) on a timely basis at the Closing all conditions under its control in the Commitment Letters, (iii) negotiate and enter into definitive agreements with respect thereto on terms and conditions described in the Debt Commitment Letter (including any “flex” provisions contained therein), or on other terms in the aggregate not materially less favorable to the Buyer, at the Closing Date.

(b)In the event any portion of the Debt Financing becomes unavailable on the terms and conditions (including any “flex” provisions) contemplated in the Debt Commitment Letter for any reason other than due to the breach by the Sellers of any of their representations, warranties or covenants contained herein or as a result of the failure of a condition contained herein to be satisfied by the Sellers, and such portion is less than the amount required to satisfy the Financing Purposes (after giving effect to the Equity Financing and all other sources of funds then available to the Buyer) the Buyer shall promptly notify the Sellers in writing and use its commercially reasonable efforts to arrange to obtain alternative debt financing from the same or other sources (the “Alternative Debt Financing”) in an amount sufficient, when taken together with the available portion of the Equity Financing and the available portion of the Debt Financing and all other sources of financing then available to satisfy the Financing Purposes, as promptly as practicable following the occurrence of such event, which Alternative Debt Financing would not contain terms and conditions materially less favorable to Buyer, taken as a whole, as those terms and conditions set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Buyer shall promptly notify the Sellers in writing (A) if there exists any material breach, material default, repudiation, cancellation or termination, in each

case, in writing, of any provisions of the Commitment Letters by any party thereto, (B) of the receipt by the Buyer of any written notice or other written communication from the Guarantor or the Debt Financing Sources with respect to any actual breach, default, repudiation, cancellation or termination by any party to the applicable Commitment Letter or (C) (1) if there is a material dispute or disagreement between the Buyer and any parties to any Commitment Letter (other than in ordinary course negotiations) or (2) if the Buyer reasonably expects that it will not be able to obtain all or any portion of the Financing contemplated by the Commitment Letters on the terms, in the manner or from the sources contemplated by the Commitment Letters. As soon as reasonably practicable, the Buyer shall provide any information reasonably requested by the Sellers relating to any circumstance referred to in clause (A), (B) or (C) of the immediately preceding sentence. The Buyer and Guarantor shall not (without the prior written consent of Carlisle) consent or agree to any amendment, replacement, supplement or modification to, or any waiver of any provision under, the Commitment Letters (except, for the avoidance of doubt, as expressly contemplated in the Commitment Letters as of the date hereof, including to add additional lenders, lead arrangers bookrunners, syndication agents or similar entities as parties thereto who had not executed the Debt Commitment Letter as of the date hereof) in each case in a manner that makes it less likely the Financing will be funded at Closing or imposes new or additional conditions or expands any existing condition to the receipt of the Financing or would reasonably be expected to prevent, impede or delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, compliance by the Buyer with this Section 5.12(b) shall not relieve the Buyer of its obligation to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement whether or not the Financing is available, and the Buyer acknowledges that this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby are not contingent on the Buyer’s ability to obtain the financing (or any Alternative Debt Financing) or any specific term with respect to such financing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will the commercially reasonable efforts of Buyer be deemed or construed to require Buyer to (i) seek equity financing from any source other than the counterparty to the Equity Commitment Letter as of the date hereof, (ii) pay any fees, original issue discount or closing payments materially in excess of those contained in the Debt Commitment Letter, (iii) agree to Alternative Debt Financing with pricing or other economic terms in excess of, or more expensive than, what it is obligated to pay under the Debt Commitment Letter as of the date hereof, (iv) agree to a more onerous financial covenant than that set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter as of the date hereof and (v) agree to non-economic terms and covenants materially more restrictive to Buyer than the non-economic terms and covenants set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter as of the date hereof.

(c)Prior to the Closing, the Sellers will, and will cause the Group Companies, Sellers’ other Affiliates and their representatives to (each individually a “Seller Party” and collectively, the “Seller Parties”), use each of their commercially reasonable efforts to provide to the Buyer, at the Buyer’s sole cost and expense, reasonable cooperation reasonably requested by the Buyer that is necessary and customary in connection with the arrangement of the Debt Financing (or Alternative Debt Financing obtained in accordance with Section 5.12(b)). Such cooperation by each Seller Party shall include, at the reasonable request of Buyer, using its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) furnish, or cause to be furnished, to Buyer such historical financial information that is reasonably necessary in connection with the Debt Financing and customarily provided for similarly situated companies, to the extent such information is readily available or customarily prepared and is required to be provided pursuant to the Debt

Commitment Letter or in connection with any marketing of the Debt Financing (provided that the Sellers shall not be required to provide carve-out audited historical financials for the Acquired Business); (ii) cooperate with the Buyer in providing reasonable access to its management team, with appropriate seniority and expertise, and to seek to obtain their participation in a reasonable number of lender presentations, sessions, meetings with prospective lenders, road shows and rating agency presentations, in each case, upon reasonable advance notice and at mutually agreed times during its normal business hours; (iii) provide reasonable cooperation to Buyer in its preparation of customary bank information memoranda and similar customarily used informational materials reasonably required in connection with the Debt Financing; (iv) provide reasonable assistance to Buyer to facilitate the pledging of collateral in connection with the Debt Financing, including assistance with negotiating any customary pledge and security documents (including any schedules thereto pertaining to it) and as it relates to collateral required to be provided under the Debt Commitment Letter in jurisdictions outside of the United States; (v) (A) facilitate the preparation and execution of the definitive agreements with respect to the Debt Financing (but not so preparing) as may be reasonably requested by Buyer (including by providing information for schedules for such definitive documents) solely to the extent such materials relate to information concerning it and (B) take corporate actions reasonably requested by Buyer to permit the consummation of the Debt Financing and to permit the proceeds thereof to be made available to the Sellers at Closing; provided, that no obligation applicable to it shall be effective until the Closing has occurred (other than the execution and delivery of pay-off letters or customary authorization letters, in each case as applicable); (vi) (A) assist and permit prospective lenders involved in the Debt Financing to evaluate the Group Companies’ current assets, cash management and accounting systems, policies and procedures relating thereto for the purpose of establishing collateral arrangements with respect to the asset-based financing contemplated in the Debt Commitment Letter, (B) cooperate with Buyer to establish bank and other accounts and blocked account agreements and lock box arrangements in connection with the asset-based financing contemplated in the Debt Commitment Letter and (C) permit representatives of the prospective lenders to conduct commercial field examinations and inventory appraisals and similar collateral exams contemplated in the asset-based financing in the Debt Commitment Letter; and (vii) provide other customary cooperation with the marketing efforts of Buyer and its Debt Financing Sources for any portion of the Debt Financing as reasonably requested by Buyer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) nothing in this Section 5.12 shall require such cooperation to the extent it would unreasonably interfere with the business or operations of such Seller Party, (ii) no Seller Party shall be required to pay any commitment or other fee or incur any other Liability or obligation in connection with the Debt Financing contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter or be required to take any action for which it would not be indemnified hereunder, to bear any cost or expense or to pay any commitment or other similar fee or make any other payment or agree to provide any indemnity in connection with the Debt Financing or any of the foregoing prior to the Closing (other than the execution and delivery of pay-off letters or customary authorization letters, in each case as applicable) and (iii) no Seller and no Group Company will be required to take any action that may conflict with or violate its respective Governing Documents or any Laws, or result in, prior to the Closing, the contravention of, or that may result in, prior to the Closing, a violation or breach of, or default under, any Contract to which it is a party, and (iv) neither any Seller nor any of their Affiliates will be required to provide or otherwise make available any auditor documents, consents or certifications, or any audited financial statements for the Group Companies other than the consolidated, audited financial statements of Carlisle, that are publicly available. For the

avoidance of doubt, no Seller and no Group Company, nor any of their respective directors, managers, officers or employees, shall be required to execute or enter into or perform any agreement with respect to the Debt Financing.

(d)The Buyer (i) shall promptly, upon request by the Sellers, reimburse the Sellers or the Group Companies, as applicable, for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs incurred by any Seller, any Group Company, any Affiliate thereof or any of their respective directors, managers, officers, employees, representatives, consultants, financial advisors, attorneys, accountants or other agents in connection with the cooperation of any Seller, any Group Company or any Affiliate thereof as contemplated by this Section 5.12 and (ii) shall indemnify and hold harmless the Sellers, the Group Companies, their Affiliates and their respective directors, managers, officers, employees, representatives, consultants, financial advisors, attorneys, accountants and other agents from and against any and all losses suffered or incurred by them in connection with the arrangement of the Debt Financing and the performance of their respective obligations under this Section 5.12 (including any action taken in accordance with this Section 5.12 and any information used in connection therewith), in each case except to the extent such losses are suffered as a result of written information, including financial information, provided by such person, or any such other person’s gross negligence, bad faith, willful misconduct or material breach of this Agreement, as applicable.

(e)The Sellers will, and will cause the Group Companies, Sellers’ other Affiliates and their representatives to at least four Business Days prior to the Closing, furnish the Buyer with all customary documentation and other information regarding the Seller, the Group Companies, their Affiliates required by U.S. regulatory authorities pursuant to applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the USA PATRIOT Act and any certificate required under beneficial ownership regulations set forth in 31 C.F.R. § 1010.230, in each case, to the extent requested by the Buyer in writing at least 11 Business Days prior to the Closing.

(a)Prior to the date hereof, the Sellers or their Affiliates (other than the Group Companies) have maintained insurance coverage provided by third-party insurers (including insurance for property, commercial general liability, commercial automobile, workers compensation, employers liability, excess and umbrella liability, employment practices liability, fiduciary liability, crime and cyber) for liabilities of the Acquired Business arising out of occurrences or claims made on or prior to the Closing Date, whether or not reported to the relevant insurer, or otherwise for claims or occurrences that would be covered under such policies or with respect to insurance policies primarily for the benefit of a Group Company (the “Seller Occurrence Policies” and each, a “Seller Occurrence Policy”) (and any such claims under a Seller Occurrence Policy, the “Insurance Claims” and each, an “Insurance Claim”). After the Closing, upon request of the Buyer, the Sellers or their applicable Affiliates shall use commercially reasonable efforts (including filing claims on behalf of the Acquired Business) to facilitate coverage under the relevant Seller Occurrence Policy for applicable Insurance Claims in substantially the same manner as similar claims were processed prior to the Closing Date, with such coverage determination to be governed by and construed in accordance with the terms and conditions of the relevant Seller Occurrence Policy. In the event that (i) the Sellers or their applicable Affiliates receive any proceeds of a Seller Occurrence Policy with respect to any

Insurance Claim covered thereby, and (ii) the amount or loss subject to such claim has been paid or incurred by the Acquired Business, the Sellers or their applicable Affiliates shall promptly pay or reimburse the Buyer with respect to the amount so paid or incurred by the Acquired Business in accordance with this Section 5.13.

(b)The Buyer shall reimburse the Sellers or their applicable Affiliates for any out-of-pocket administrative and processing fees or other similar out of pocket costs and expenses imposed by the insurer and paid by either of them specifically relating to the submitted Insurance Claims and the processing thereof (the “Reimbursed Amounts”). The Parties agree that (i) the Sellers will invoice the Buyer on a monthly basis for all Reimbursed Amounts paid or incurred by the Sellers or their applicable Affiliates with appropriate supporting details, and (ii) the Buyer will pay the amount reflected on such invoices as promptly as practicable and in any event within 15 Business Days of receipt of any such invoice with appropriate supporting details.

(c)In the event that a Group Company or any of its Affiliates or representatives takes or fails to take any action that results in the Seller Occurrence Policy not being available for any reason with respect to any Insurance Claim, the Sellers shall notify the Buyer in writing as to what action or failure of action caused a suspension of coverage. The Buyer shall have 30 days to cause the applicable Group Company to remedy such action or failure of action. If no remedy has been effected at the end of such 30-day period (or such longer period as may be agreed in writing by the Parties acting reasonably), then the Sellers’ or their applicable Affiliates’ obligations pursuant to this Section 5.13 solely with respect to such Insurance Claim shall terminate and be of no further force and effect. The Buyer acknowledges and agrees that (i) in no event shall the Sellers or any of their Affiliates be required to pay, or be held responsible for, any self-insured retention amounts or deductibles payable with respect to any Insurance Claim, and (ii) the Acquired Business shall be responsible for all self-insured retention amounts and deductibles payable with respect to any Insurance Claim.

(d)The Buyer acknowledges that effective as of the Closing Date, the Sellers or their applicable Affiliates intend to remove the Acquired Business from the Seller Occurrence Policies to the extent that the Seller Occurrence Policies relate to any occurrences first arising at any time after the Closing Date. Accordingly, the Buyer acknowledges that coverage under the Seller Occurrence Policies will not be available to the Acquired Business with respect to any injury, loss, or damage that the Acquired Business or any third party may suffer as a result of any act, omission, occurrence, fact, or circumstance to the extent occurring with respect to any period after the Closing Date. The Parties will (and will cause their Affiliates to) use commercially reasonable efforts to structure and characterize for Tax purposes any payments between them provided for in this Section 5.13 in a manner that is Tax-efficient for the Parties and their Affiliates.

Section 5.14    Intercompany Accounts and Contracts. Prior to the Closing, the Sellers shall take (or cause the Group Companies or their other Affiliates to take) such actions as are necessary to (a) settle, effective as of or prior to the Closing, all intercompany accounts between or among any Group Company, on the one hand, and the Sellers or any of their other Affiliates, on the other hand, such that, as of the Closing, there are no intercompany obligations, fees, payables, or receivables between or among any Group Company, on the one hand, and the Sellers or any of their other Affiliates, on the other hand, (b) assign Contracts between or among any Group Company, on the one hand, and the Sellers or any of their other Affiliates, on the

other hand, to the appropriate Person(s) as applicable to ensure an orderly transition and integration of the Group Companies by the Buyer following the Closing, and (c) except for the Ancillary Documents, terminate, effective as of the Closing, all intercompany Contracts (or portions thereof), services, support, and other arrangements, whether written or oral, between or among any Group Company, on the one hand, and the Sellers or any of their other Affiliates, on the other hand, in each case of clauses (a) through (c), in a manner that does not increase the Liability for Taxes of the Buyer or any Group Company, and, from and after the Closing, no further rights or Liabilities of any party shall continue under such applicable terminated Contracts (or portions thereof), services, support, or arrangements.

Section 5.15    Restrictive Covenants.

(a)The Sellers hereby covenant and agree that during the five-year period beginning on the Closing Date, the Sellers shall not, and shall cause their Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, engage in any business that is competitive with the Acquired Business or own any interest in, operate, control, have a financial interest which provides any control of, or participate with or in, any Person producing, designing, providing, soliciting orders for, selling, distributing, consulting to, or marketing or re-marketing products or services, that are competitive with the Acquired Business, in each case, anywhere in the world; provided, that nothing in this Section 5.15(a) shall prohibit the Sellers or any of their Affiliates from (i) owning or holding less than two percent of the outstanding shares of any class of stock that is regularly traded on a recognized U.S. or non-U.S. securities exchange or over-the-counter market, or (ii) acquiring an entity or business that engages in a business competitive with the Acquired Business as conducted as of the date hereof, so long as (A) the revenue from such competitive operations does not exceed the lesser of either $25,000,000 or 10% of the total revenue of such entity or business (as applicable), and (B) the Sellers or their applicable Affiliate sells or otherwise divests each competitive operation within 12 months following such acquisition (unless such acquisition occurs more than four years and six-months after the Closing Date and such disposition would occur after the end of the five-year period described in this Section 5.15(a)).

(b)The Sellers hereby covenant and agree that during the five-year period beginning on the Closing Date, the Sellers shall not, and shall cause their Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, recruit, solicit, contact, or approach for employment, hiring, or engagement (whether as an employee, consultant, agent, independent contractor, or otherwise), or encourage to leave his or her employment or consulting relationship with the Buyer, a Group Company or any of their respective Affiliates, any Person who is, or was at any time during the six (6) months immediately preceding the Closing Date, an employee of the Acquired Business or otherwise seek or attempt to influence or alter any such Person’s relationship with the Buyer, a Group Company, or any of their respective Affiliates; provided, that nothing in this Section 5.15(b) shall prohibit the Sellers or any of their Affiliates from any: (i) general solicitation for employment (including in any newspaper or magazine, over the internet, or by any search or employment agency), if not specifically directed towards any such Person; (ii) hiring of any such Person where the initial contact with such individual regarding such hiring arose from any such general solicitation; or (iii) soliciting for employment or hiring any individual who at the time of such solicitation and hiring has not been employed by the Buyer or any Affiliate of the Buyer for at least six months prior to such solicitation. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 5.15(b) to the contrary, the Sellers hereby covenant and agree that during the five-year period beginning on

the Closing Date, the Sellers shall not, and shall cause their Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, employ, hire or engage (whether as an employee, consultant, agent, independent contractor, or otherwise) any of the individuals listed on Schedule 5.15(b).

(c)The Sellers recognize and acknowledge that, as of the Closing Date, they will have knowledge of confidential or other proprietary information relative to the activities of the Buyer and the Group Companies, including information relating to financial statements or other financial information, clients, customers, potential clients or customers, employees, suppliers, equipment, designs, discoveries, drawings, programs, strategies, analyses, profit margins, pricing information, Contracts, sales and marketing information or materials, methods of operation, plans, processes, research, systems, techniques, Intellectual Property Rights, products, technologies, materials, innovations, improvements, technical know-how, developments, strategies, ideas, prospects, tangible or intangible work product or other proprietary information (“Confidential Information”). In light of the foregoing, from and after the Closing Date, the Sellers shall, and shall cause their Affiliates, directors, officers, employees and Representatives to, maintain the confidentiality of, and refrain from using or disclosing for any purposes, whether directly or indirectly, to any Person, all Confidential Information, except to the extent disclosure of any such Confidential Information is (i) required by applicable Law, or (ii) after any such information is in the public domain through no act on the part of any Seller, or any of its Affiliates, directors, officers, employees or representatives. In the event that any Seller or any of its Affiliates receives a request or is required (by deposition, interrogatory, request for documents, subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar process) to disclose any Confidential Information, such Seller shall, and shall cause its applicable Affiliates to, (A) provide the Buyer with prompt notice before such disclosure so that the Buyer may attempt to obtain a protective Order from a Governmental Entity or other assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such Confidential Information, and (B) cooperate with the Buyer in attempting to obtain such Order or assurance. In the event that such Order or assurance is not obtained or that the Buyer waive compliance with the provisions of this Section 5.15(c), the Sellers and their Affiliates may disclose to any Governmental Entity only any Confidential Information for which they have received a written legal opinion from counsel that such Confidential Information is legally required to be disclosed, and shall exercise commercially reasonable efforts to obtain assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such Confidential Information.

(d)The Sellers acknowledge and agree that the length of time, scope, and geographic coverage of the covenants set forth in this Section 5.15 are fair and reasonable given the benefits the Sellers have received under this Agreement. The Sellers further agree that they will not challenge the reasonableness of the time and scope in any Action, regardless of who initiates such Action. The Sellers further acknowledge and agree that the covenants set forth in this Section 5.15 are necessary for the protection of the Buyer’s legitimate business interests and that the Buyer would not have entered into this Agreement unless the Sellers had agreed for them and their respective Affiliates to be irrevocably bound by the covenants contained in this Section 5.15, that irreparable injury will result to the Buyer if the Sellers or any of their respective Affiliates breach any of the terms of this Section 5.15, and that in the event of an actual or threatened breach by the Sellers or any of their respective Affiliates of any of the provisions contained in this Section 5.15, the Buyer would have no adequate remedy at Law. The Sellers accordingly waive, on behalf of themselves and their respective Affiliates, the defense of

adequacy of a remedy at Law, and agree that in the event of any actual or threatened breach by any of them or any of their respective Affiliates of any of the provisions contained in this Section 5.15, the Buyer shall be entitled to seek injunctive and other equitable relief without (i) the posting of any bond or other security, (ii) the necessity of showing actual damages, and (iii) the necessity of showing that monetary damages are an inadequate remedy. Nothing contained in this Section 5.15 shall be construed as prohibiting the Buyer from pursuing any other remedies available to it for such breach or threatened breach, including the recovery of any damages that it is able to prove. The Sellers shall be liable for any breach by any of their respective Affiliates of this Section 5.15.

(e)This Section 5.15 shall be deemed to consist of a series of separate and independent covenants, and shall be worldwide in geographic scope. The Parties expressly agree that the character, duration and scope of this Section 5.15 are reasonable and necessary for the protection of the Buyer’s legitimate interests in the goodwill of the Group Companies in light of the circumstances as they exist on the date hereof and the consideration for the covenants contained in this Section 5.15 is included in the consideration payable pursuant to Section 2.2. Should a determination nonetheless be made by a court of competent jurisdiction at a later date that the character, duration or geographical scope of this Section 5.15 is void, unenforceable, or unreasonable in light of the circumstances as they then exist, then it is the intention and the agreement of the Sellers (on behalf of themselves and their respective Affiliates) that this Section 5.15 shall be construed by the court in such a manner as to impose only those restrictions (including with any such modification as may be required to make a restriction valid and enforceable) on the conduct of the Sellers and their Affiliates that are valid, enforceable, and reasonable in light of the circumstances as they then exist and as are necessary to assure the Group Companies and the Buyer of the intended benefit of this Section 5.15. If, in any Action, a court shall refuse to enforce all of the separate covenants deemed included in this Section 5.15 because, taken together, they are more extensive than necessary to assure the Group Companies and the Buyer of the intended benefit of this Section 5.15, it is expressly understood and agreed among the Parties that those of such covenants that, if eliminated, would permit the remaining separate covenants to be enforced in such Action shall, for the purpose of such Action, be deemed eliminated from the provisions of this Section 5.15 and the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to replace such void or unenforceable covenant with a valid provision which, as far as possible, has the same commercial effect as the provision which it replaces.

Section 5.16    Local Law Requirements. Promptly following execution of this Agreement, the Parties shall cooperate to prepare any further transfer documents and agreements as may be required by the Law of any particular jurisdiction to consummate the Closing, it being understood by the Parties that the representations and warranties provided in this Agreement shall be the sole representations and warranties provided by the Sellers and their Affiliates with respect to the Group Companies.

Section 5.17    Carlisle Name. The Buyer covenants and agrees that following the Closing, and in any event no later than 24 months following the Closing Date, they shall take action to amend the Governing Documents of the applicable Group Companies and make such other filings with Governmental Entities necessary to change each entity’s corporate or company name to a name that does not include the words “Carlisle” or “CFT” or any name intended or likely to be confused with the names “Carlisle” or “CFT.”

Section 5.18    Further Assurances. Following the Closing, as and when requested by any Party hereto and at such requesting Party’s expense, the other Party shall execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, all such documents and instruments and shall take, or cause to be taken, all such further actions as the requesting Party may reasonably deem necessary to evidence and effectuate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 5.19    Lien-Releases; Pay-off Letters. At or prior to the Closing, Sellers shall (a) obtain the release of all Liens relating to any Funded Indebtedness of Seller and its Affiliates (i.e., disregarding the reference to Group Companies in the definition thereof) with respect to the Group Companies, the assets, properties and Equity Securities of the Group Companies, and (b) provide customary lien release documents (including applicable UCC filings) in connection with, and evidencing, the foregoing (collectively, “Seller Lien Release Documents”). In addition, at least three days prior to Closing, Sellers shall deliver customary pay-off letters (collectively, the “Pay-off Letters”), each in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Buyer, signed by such lender or holder of Closing Date Funded Indebtedness, in each case (i) specifying all amounts of Funded Indebtedness owed to such lender or holder, as well as any other amounts required to fully pay off all of such Funded Indebtedness on the Closing Date, and (ii) agreeing that, upon such lender’s or holder’s receipt of the applicable pay-off amount, (A) all outstanding obligations of the Group Companies arising under or related to the applicable Funded Indebtedness shall be repaid and discharged in full, and (B) any Liens such lender or holder may have in connection therewith shall automatically be released and terminated in full.

Section 5.21    IP Assignment. If prior to the Closing any Registered Intellectual Property that is used exclusively in the Acquired Business is identified by Sellers or the Buyer as not being owned by a Group Company (“Assignable Registered IP”), the Sellers shall assign or cause to be assigned to CFT LLC all Assignable Registered IP prior to the Closing; provided, however, that such assignment specifically excludes any Trademarks that contain or consist of

the terms CARLISLE or CFT.  If any of the foregoing Assignable Registered IP is not or cannot be assigned to a Group Company by Closing, the Sellers grant CFT LLC a perpetual (or until assignment to a Group Company), exclusive (including as to Sellers and their Affiliates), royalty-free, transferable, sublicensable license to the Assignable Registered IP. The Sellers agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to, prior to Closing, file a name change or otherwise correct the named owner in the public record for all Registered Intellectual Property used in the Business that does not currently reflect a Group Company as owner of public record.  For any name change or public record correction not completed by Closing, Sellers will pay all associated costs of completing such name change or correction following Closing.

Following the date hereof, the Buyer shall take use reasonable best efforts to ensure that the R&W Insurance Policy provides that: (a) the insurer shall have no, and shall waive and not pursue any and all, subrogation rights against the Sellers except for Fraud; (b) each Seller is a third party beneficiary of such waiver; (c) the Buyer shall not amend the R&W Insurance Policy in any manner adverse to any Seller (including with respect to the subrogation provisions or the exclusion provisions) without Carlisle’s express written consent; and (d) the Buyer shall have no obligation under the R&W Insurance Policy to pursue any claim against the Sellers (other than in connection with Fraud by the Sellers).

Section 8.1    Termination. This Agreement may be terminated and the transactions contemplated herein may be abandoned at any time prior to the Closing:

(a)by mutual written consent of the Buyer and the Sellers;

(b)by the Buyer, if there shall have been a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on the part of the Sellers contained in this Agreement, or any such representation or warranty shall be untrue, such that the conditions set forth in Section 6.1 or Section 6.2 would not be satisfied and, in either such case, such breach or condition is not curable or, if curable, is not cured prior to the earlier of (i) 30 days after written notice thereof is given by the Buyer to Carlisle or (ii) the Termination Date; provided, however, that the Buyer shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(b) if the Buyer is then in material breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement and such breach would be the primary cause of a condition set forth in Section 6.1 or Section 6.3 not to be satisfied;

(c)by the Sellers, if there shall have been a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on the part of the Buyer contained in this Agreement, or any such representation or warranty shall be untrue, such that the conditions set forth in Section 6.1 or Section 6.3 would not be satisfied and, in either such case, such breach or condition is not curable or, if curable, is not cured prior to the earlier of (i) 30 days after written notice thereof is given by Carlisle to the Buyer or (ii) the Termination Date; provided, however, that the Sellers shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(c) if any Sellers is then in material breach of any of its respective representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement and such breach would be the primary cause of a condition set forth in Section 6.1 or Section 6.2 not to be satisfied;

(d)by the Buyer, on the one hand, or the Sellers, on the other hand, if the Closing shall not have occurred on or prior to October 16, 2023 (the “Initial Termination Date,” and as may be extended pursuant to this Section 8.1(d), the “Termination Date”); provided, that if on the Initial Termination Date all conditions to Closing have been satisfied or waived (other than those conditions which by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing) other than the

conditions set forth in Section 6.1(a), Section 6.1(b) or Section 6.1(d) (where, in the case of Section 6.1(d), such statute, rule, regulation, executive Order, decree, temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction or other order, or other legal restraint or prohibition preventing the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or Action to challenging the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, relates to, or is imposed pursuant to, CFIUS or the HSR Act, in each case, except to the extent such statute, rule, regulation, executive Order, decree, temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction or other order, or other legal restraint or prohibition or Action is final and non-appealable) then the Termination Date shall be automatically extended to December 14, 2023; provided, further, that a Party’s right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(d) shall not be available to such terminating Party if the primary cause of the failure to consummate the Closing is a breach by such terminating Party of its representations, warranties, obligations or covenants under this Agreement;

(e)by either the Buyer, on the one hand, or by the Sellers, on the other hand, if any Governmental Entity shall have issued an Order or ruling or taken any other Action permanently enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting the Closing and such Order or ruling or other Action shall have become final and nonappealable; or

(f)by the Sellers, if (i) all of the conditions set forth in Section 6.1 and Section 6.2 (other than any conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at the Closing, provided that each of such conditions is reasonably likely to be satisfied if the Closing were to occur at such time) have been satisfied or validly waived in writing, (ii) the Buyer fails to consummate the Closing on the date the Closing should have occurred pursuant to Section 2.1, (iii) the Sellers deliver an irrevocable accurate written notice to the Buyer that (A) all of the conditions in Section 6.1 and Section 6.2 (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied by the taking of actions or delivery of documents, or waived, on the Closing Date, provided that each of such conditions is reasonably likely to be satisfied if the Closing were to occur at such time) have been satisfied as of the Closing Date if the Closing would have occurred pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or that the Sellers are willing to waive any such conditions that remain unsatisfied, and (B) the Sellers are ready, willing, and able to consummate the Closing on such date of such notice and at all times during the two Business Day period immediately thereafter (such notice, a “Closing Failure Notice”), and (iv) the Buyer fails to consummate the Closing within two Business Days following the receipt by it of a Closing Failure Notice.

Section 8.2    Notice and Effect of Termination.

(a)Any Party desiring to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1 shall give written notice of such termination to the other Parties to this Agreement.

(b)In the event of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1, except as set forth in this Section 8.2(b), this entire Agreement shall forthwith become void (and there shall be no liability or obligation on the part of the Buyer, the Sellers or their respective Representatives) with the exception of, (i) liability of any Seller for any willful breach of this Agreement prior to such termination or Fraud (none of which the Sellers shall be relieved from by virtue of the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms), (ii) the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement, (iii) the prohibition on public disclosure in Section 5.9, (iv) the

expense reimbursement and indemnification provisions of Section 5.12(d), (v) this Section 8.2, (vi) Section 8.3 and (vii) Article 10, which will each survive the termination of this Agreement in accordance with their respective terms. Prior to the Closing, the Sellers and the Group Companies’ sole and exclusive remedy for any breach of this Agreement by the Buyer (whether at Law, in equity, in Contract, in tort or otherwise), or for any failure of the Closing to occur for any reason or no reason, shall be (i) the payment of the Buyer Termination Fee if payable pursuant to Section 8.3 or (ii) to the extent available, specific performance in accordance with Section 10.16.

Section 8.3    Buyer Termination Payment.

(a)If the Sellers validly terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(c) or 8.1(f), then within two Business Days following the date of termination, the Buyer shall pay to Carlisle, on behalf of the Sellers, a fee equal to $31,500,000 (the “Buyer Termination Fee”) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated in writing by Carlisle.

(b)The Parties acknowledge and hereby agree that in no event shall the Buyer be required to pay the Buyer Termination Fee on more than one occasion.

(c)The Parties acknowledge and hereby agree that the Buyer Termination Fee, if, as and when required to be paid pursuant to this Section 8.3, shall not constitute a penalty but will be liquidated damages, in a reasonable amount that will compensate the Sellers under the circumstances for their efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, which amount would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision.

(d)The Parties acknowledge and hereby agree that the agreements contained in this Section 8.3 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and that, without these agreements, the Parties would not enter into this Agreement. If the Buyer fails to timely pay the Buyer Termination Fee, or any portion thereof, when due and payable in accordance with Section 8.3(a), and, in order to obtain such payment, Carlisle commences a suit that results in a final and non-appealable judgment against the Buyer for the Buyer Termination Fee, or any portion thereof, then the Buyer shall pay to Carlisle its reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable and documented out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees and the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses of any expert or consultant engaged by Carlisle), in connection with such suit up to a maximum amount of $1,000,000 promptly following the entry of such final and non-appealable judgment by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated in writing by Carlisle. If Carlisle commences a suit for payment of the Buyer Termination Fee that results in final and non-appealable judgment against Carlisle, then Carlisle shall pay to Buyer its reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable and documented out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees and the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses of any expert or consultant engaged by the Buyer) in connection with such suit up to a maximum amount of $1,000,000, with any such payment to be made reasonably promptly following the entry of such final and non-appealable judgment by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated in writing by the Buyer.

(e)In the event this Agreement is terminated, the right to receive payment of the Buyer Termination Fee shall be the sole and exclusive remedy (whether at Law or in equity, in Contract, tort or otherwise) of the Sellers and their Affiliates, or any other Person, against the Buyer, its Affiliates and the Debt Financing Sources, and (i) each of their respective former, current, and future direct and indirect equityholders, controlling persons, directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, Affiliates, members, managers, general or limited partners, assignees, or other representatives, and (ii) any future direct and indirect equityholders, controlling persons, directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, Affiliates, members, managers, general or limited partners, stockholders, successors, assignees, or other representatives of any of the foregoing (collectively, the “Buyer Parties”) for any and all Losses suffered or incurred by any Seller or its Affiliates in connection with this Agreement, the Ancillary Documents, the Financing, the Commitment Letters (and the termination thereof), or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall any Seller or its related Persons be entitled to seek or obtain any recovery or judgment in excess of the Buyer Termination Fee, together with any expense reimbursement pursuant to Section 5.12(d) or Section 8.3(d), against any of the Buyer Parties or any of their respective assets, and in no event shall any Seller or its Affiliates be entitled to seek or obtain any other damages of any kind against any Buyer Party for, or with respect to, this Agreement, the Ancillary Documents, the Financing, the Commitment Letters (and the termination thereof), or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, including any breach by the Buyer, the termination of this Agreement, the failure to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, or any Actions under applicable Law arising out of any such breach, termination, or failure (whether willful, intentional, unintentional or otherwise); provided, that nothing in this Section 8.3(e) shall limit the right of the Sellers (A) to bring or maintain any Action for injunction, specific performance, or other equitable relief solely to the extent provided in Section 10.16, (B) to bring or maintain any Action arising out of or in connection with any breach of the Confidentiality Agreement, or (C) to be reimbursed for expenses in accordance with Section 5.12(d) or Section 8.3(d). The Sellers may pursue a grant of specific performance to require the Buyer to effect the Closing simultaneously with Carlisle’s pursuit of the payment of the Buyer Termination Fee, but under no circumstances shall the Sellers or any of their Affiliates be permitted or entitled to receive both a grant of specific performance to require the Buyer to effect the Closing and the payment of the Buyer Termination Fee.

Section 9.1Indemnification by the Sellers. From and after the Closing, the Sellers shall, jointly and severally, indemnify and hold harmless the Buyer, its Affiliates, and its and their respective officers, directors, employees, managers, financial advisors, attorneys, accountants and other advisors, agents, and representatives, and their respective successors and assigns (each, a “Buyer Indemnified Party”) from and against, and be liable to the Buyer Indemnified Parties for, any and all Losses arising out of, based upon, or resulting from:

(a)any breach or inaccuracy of any Fundamental Representation of the Sellers;

(b)any breach of, or failure to comply with or perform, any covenant, obligation, or agreement of any Seller or its Affiliates contained in this Agreement; and

(c)any matters set forth on Schedule 9.1(c).

Section 9.2Indemnification by the Buyer. From and after the Closing, the Buyer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Sellers, their Affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, employees, managers, financial advisors, attorneys, accountants and other advisors, agents, and representatives, and their respective successors and assigns (each, a “Seller Indemnified Party”) from and against, and be liable to the Seller Indemnified Parties for, any and all Losses arising out of, based upon, or resulting from:

(a)any breach or inaccuracy of any Fundamental Representation of the Buyer; and

(b)any breach of, or failure to comply with or perform, any covenant, obligation, or agreement of the Buyer or its Affiliates contained in this Agreement.

Section 9.3Indemnification Claims.

(a)Any Buyer Indemnified Party or Seller Indemnified Party seeking indemnification under this Agreement (an “Indemnified Party”) with respect to any Action asserted against the Indemnified Party by a third party (“Third-Party Claim”) in respect of any matter that is subject to indemnification under Section 9.1 or Section 9.2, as applicable, shall (i) promptly notify the Buyer or the Sellers, as applicable (the “Indemnifying Party”), of the Third-Party Claim, and (ii) as promptly as practicable, transmit to the Indemnifying Party a written notice (a “Claim Notice”) describing in reasonable detail the nature of the Third-Party Claim and an estimate of any Losses expected to be incurred with respect thereto (if reasonably determinable) and including all notices, pleadings and other material documents or instruments served upon or received by the Indemnified Party with respect thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the delay or failure to give the notice provided in, or in accordance with, this Section 9.3(a) will not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Article 9, except to the extent such Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by such delay or failure.

(b)The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to defend the Indemnified Party against such Third-Party Claim (except in the case of an Excluded Matter) if the Indemnifying Party promptly notifies the Indemnified Party (and in any event within 30 days after having received any Claim Notice) in writing that it is exercising its right to defend the Indemnified Party against such Third-Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party in writing that the Indemnifying Party elects to assume the defense of the Third-Party Claim, then the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to defend such Third-Party Claim with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party (and reasonably approved by the Indemnified Party, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) in all appropriate proceedings. The Indemnifying Party shall have control of such defense and proceedings, including any compromise or settlement thereof; provided, that the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into any compromise or settlement of such Third-Party Claim without the written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) unless (i) there is no finding or admission of any violation or breach of Law by the Indemnified Party in such settlement, (ii) the sole relief provided in such settlement is monetary in damages that are paid in full by the Indemnifying Party, and (iii) such settlement provides, in customary form, for the unconditional and full release of the Indemnified Party from all Liabilities in connection with such Third-Party Claim. The Indemnified Party may participate

in, but not control, any defense or settlement of any Third-Party Claim controlled by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Section 9.3(b), and the Indemnified Party shall bear its own costs and expenses with respect to such participation unless, in the reasonable judgment of the Indemnified Party, there is a conflict of interest (including the availability to the Indemnified Party of one or more defenses that are not available to the Indemnifying Party) that would prevent the same counsel from representing both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, in which case the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to retain one separate counsel, the reasonable costs and expenses of which shall be borne by the Indemnifying Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Third-Party Claim (i) primarily seeks non-monetary relief which, (ii) asserts Losses in excess of the applicable Liability cap set forth in Section 9.4 (after taking into account all prior and pending indemnifiable Losses), (iii) involves a criminal proceeding against the Buyer or its Affiliates (including the Group Companies), or (iv) involves a material customer or material supplier of the Group Companies (each, an “Excluded Matter”), then, in each case, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to defend the applicable Third-Party Claim in accordance with Section 9.3(c) below.

(c)In the event of an Excluded Matter, or if the Indemnifying Party does not notify the Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying Party elects to defend the Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 9.3(b) within 30 days after receipt of any Claim Notice (or notifies the Indemnified Party within such time period that it elects not to defend the Indemnified Party) then, in each such instance, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to defend against the applicable Third-Party Claim and be reimbursed for its reasonable cost and expense in regard to such Third-Party Claim with counsel selected by the Indemnified Party in all appropriate proceedings. In such circumstances, the Indemnified Party shall defend any such Third-Party Claim in good faith and have full control of such defense and proceedings; provided, that the Indemnified Party may not enter into any compromise or settlement of such Third-Party Claim if indemnification is to be sought hereunder without the Indemnifying Party’s consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). The Indemnifying Party may participate in, but not control, any defense or settlement controlled by the Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 9.3(c), and the Indemnifying Party shall bear its own costs and expenses with respect to such participation.

(d)A claim for indemnification for any matter not involving a Third-Party Claim shall be asserted by notice to the applicable Indemnifying Party as promptly as practicable after the date on which the Indemnified Party becomes aware of facts giving rise to the claim for indemnification, which notice shall describe in reasonable detail the nature of the claim and shall include, to the extent estimable, a reasonable estimate of the Losses expected to be incurred with respect thereto (if reasonably determinable). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the delay or failure to give the notice provided in, or in accordance with, this Section 9.3(d) shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Article 9, except to the extent such Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by such delay or failure.

(e)Except for claims involving Fraud, any Losses payable to the Buyer Indemnified Parties as a result of a claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 9.1(a) shall be satisfied (x) first, by the Sellers until the full erosion of the retention amount under the R&W Insurance Policy, (y) second, after the full erosion of the retention amount under the R&W Insurance Policy, by the applicable Buyer Indemnified Party making a claim against the R&W Insurance Policy if the claim is of a type for which recovery would be available under the R&W

Insurance Policy, and (z) third, by the Sellers if coverage for such Losses is not available under the R&W Insurance Policy for any reason (including because the R&W Insurance Policy limits are exhausted, the claim is subject to an exclusion or limitation under R&W Insurance Policy, the claim is denied by the insurer(s) or underwriter(s) of the R&W Insurance Policy or the retention under the R&W Insurance Policy is not yet fully eroded).

(f)With respect to any Third-Party Claims regarding Pre-Closing Income Taxes or Indemnified Taxes, to the extent any provision of this Section 9.3 is inconsistent with Section 5.10(f), Section 5.10(f) shall control.

Section 9.4Limitations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, and other than claims for Fraud:

(a)the Sellers’ aggregate Liability pursuant to Section 9.1(a) or Section 9.1(b) shall not exceed the consideration received by the Sellers hereunder;

(b)the Buyers’ aggregate Liability pursuant to Section 9.2 shall not exceed the consideration payable in accordance with the terms hereof to the Sellers hereunder; and

(c)no Indemnifying Party shall have any Liability for, and Losses will not include, any punitive Losses, except to the extent any such Losses are awarded and paid with respect to a Third-Party Claim or are the reasonably foreseeable result of a breach or inaccuracy of a representation, warranty, covenant or agreement hereunder.

Section 9.5Exclusive Remedy. From and after the Closing, the sole and exclusive remedy for any and all claims, Losses or other matters arising out of, under, or related to this Agreement, shall be the rights of indemnification set forth in this Article 9 (except in the case of Fraud, in which case the Indemnified Party shall have all rights and remedies available under this Agreement and available under Law), and no Person shall have any other entitlement, remedy, or recourse, whether in Contract, tort, strict liability, or otherwise. This Section 9.5 shall not operate to interfere with or impede the operation of the covenants contained in this Agreement that by their nature are required to be performed after the Closing, or with respect to a Party’s right to seek injunctions, specific performance, and other equitable relief pursuant to Section 10.16. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall any provision in this Article 9 or otherwise in this Agreement be deemed to limit or modify the Liability of the Parties under any of the Ancillary Documents.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, from and after the Closing, for purposes of determining whether there has been a breach and the amount of any Losses suffered by an Indemnified Party that are the subject matter of a claim for indemnification hereunder, each representation, warranty, covenant, obligation, and agreement in this Agreement and any certificate or document delivered pursuant hereto shall be read without regard and without giving effect to the term(s) “material,” “Material Adverse Effect,” or other similar qualifications as to materiality, as if such words and surrounding related words (e.g., “reasonably be expected to” and similar restrictions and

qualifiers) were deleted from such representation, warranty, covenant, obligation, or agreement, except to the extent it qualifies an affirmative requirement to list specified items on the Schedules.

Section 9.7Purchase Price Adjustments. Any amounts payable under Section 9.1 or Section 9.2 shall constitute an adjustment to the Purchase Price for Tax reporting purposes and all other purposes to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law.

Section 10.1    Entire Agreement; Assignment. This Agreement, the Ancillary Documents and the Confidentiality Agreement constitute the entire agreement among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement may not be assigned by any Party (whether by operation of Law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of Carlisle and the Buyer; provided, that (a) the Buyer may assign any of its rights and obligations to any Affiliate by providing written notice of such assignment to Carlisle, and (b) the Buyer may make a collateral assignment of any or all of its rights and interests under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other parties, to any financing sources of Buyer (including its Debt Financing Sources); provided, further, that no such permitted assignment of any obligation hereunder shall relieve the Buyer of such obligation if and to the extent that such obligation is not performed by such permitted assignee. Any attempted assignment of this Agreement not in accordance with the terms of this Section 10.1 shall be void.

Section 10.3    Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice of Law or conflict of Law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the Law of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the foregoing, any Action involving any Debt Financing Source arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, the Debt

Financing or any of the agreements entered into in connection with the Debt Financing or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the performance of any services thereunder, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract, tort or otherwise (including any dispute arising out of or relating in any way to the Debt Commitment Letter), will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of New York, without regard to conflict of law principles that would result in the application of any Law other than the Law of the State of New York.

Section 10.4    Fees and Expenses. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, whether or not the Closing occurs or the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, all fees and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the fees and disbursements of counsel, financial advisors and accountants, shall be paid by the Party incurring such fees or expenses; provided, however, that in the event that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated, the Buyer shall, or shall cause the Group Companies to, pay all Unpaid Seller Expenses in accordance with Section 2.4(b). All Transfer Taxes imposed by any Governmental Entity in connection with the transfer of the Equity to the Buyer shall be borne 50% by the Buyer and 50% by the Sellers. Any Tax Returns required to be filed in connection with such Transfer Taxes shall be prepared by the Party primarily responsible under applicable Law for the filing of any such Tax Return, and each of the Parties agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate to (a) prepare and file such Tax Returns, and (b) minimize, to the extent permissible under applicable Law, the incurrence of Transfer Taxes in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 10. 5    Construction; Interpretation. The term “this Agreement” means this Agreement together with all Schedules and Exhibits hereto, as the same may from time to time be amended, modified, supplemented or restated in accordance with the terms hereof. The headings contained in this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. No Party, nor its respective counsel, shall be deemed the drafter of this Agreement for purposes of construing or enforcing the provisions hereof, and all provisions of this Agreement shall be construed according to their fair meaning and not strictly for or against any Party, and no presumption or burden of proof will arise favoring or disfavoring any Person by virtue of its authorship of any provision of this Agreement. As used in this Agreement: (i) the words, “herein,” “hereto,” “hereof” and words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole, including the Schedules and Exhibits, and not to any particular section, subsection, paragraph, subparagraph or clause contained in this Agreement; (ii) masculine gender shall also include the feminine and neutral genders, and vice versa; (iii) words importing the singular shall also include the plural, and vice versa; (iv) the words “include,” “includes” or “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”; (v) the word “extent” in the phrase “to the extent” shall mean the degree to which a subject or other thing extends, and such phrase shall not mean simply “if”; (vi) references to “dollar,” “dollars” or “$” shall be to the lawful currency of the United States and (vii) the words “made available to the Buyer” means that such information, document or material was made available for review by Buyer or its Representatives in the Data Room at least two Business Days prior to the execution of this Agreement.

Section 10.6    Exhibits and Schedules. All Exhibits and Schedules or other documents expressly incorporated into this Agreement, are hereby incorporated into this

Agreement and are hereby made a part hereof as if set out in full in this Agreement. The Schedules shall be arranged so that each section thereof qualifies the corresponding section of this Agreement; provided, that any item disclosed on any section of the Schedules will qualify (a) the corresponding section of this Agreement and (b) other sections of this Agreement to the extent (notwithstanding the absence of a specific cross-reference) that it is reasonably apparent from the face of such disclosure and such other sections of this Agreement that such disclosure is also applicable to such other sections of this Agreement. The specification of any dollar amount in the representations or warranties contained in this Agreement or the inclusion of any specific item in the Schedules is not intended to imply that such amounts, or higher or lower amounts or the items so included or other items, are or are not material, and, subject to any specific reference otherwise, no Party shall use the fact of the setting of such amounts or the inclusion of any such item in any dispute or controversy as to whether any obligation, items or matter not described herein or included in the Schedules is or is not material for purposes of this Agreement.

Section 10.7    Time of the Essence; Computation of Time. Time is of the essence for each and every provision of this Agreement. In the computation of periods of time from a specified date to a later specified date, the word “from” means “from and including” and the words “to” and “until” mean “to but excluding” and the word “through” means “to and including.” Whenever the last day for the exercise of any privilege or the discharge of any duty hereunder shall fall upon a day that is not a Business Day, the Party having such privilege or duty may exercise such privilege or discharge such duty on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day.

Section 10.8    Parties in Interest. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each Party and its successors and permitted assigns and, except as provided in Section 5.6, Article 9, Section 10.17 and Section 10.18, nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person any rights, benefits or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Debt Financing Sources shall be third-party beneficiaries of, and may enforce, this Section 10.8, Section 8.3(e), Section 10.1, Section 10.3, Section 10.10, Section 10.14, Section 10.15 and Section 10.18, to the extent such sections affect the rights and obligations of the Debt Financing Sources.

Section 10.9    Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable Law, but if any term or other provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable under applicable Law, all other provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or unenforceable under applicable Law, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

Section 10.10    Amendment. Subject to Law and Section 10.11, this Agreement may be amended or modified only by a written agreement executed and delivered by duly authorized officers of the Parties; provided, however, that the provisions of this Section 10.10

and of Section 8.3(e), Section 10.1, Section 10.3, Section 10.8, Section 10.14, Section 10.15 and Section 10.18 may not be amended without the consent of the Debt Financing Sources directly and adversely affected by such amendment. This Agreement may not be modified or amended except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence and any purported amendment by any Party or Parties effected in a manner which does not comply with this Section 10.10 shall be void.

Section 10.11    Waiver.

(a)The Sellers may waive compliance by the Buyer with any term or provision of this Agreement. The Buyer may waive compliance by the Sellers with any term or provision of this Agreement.

(b)Any agreement on the part of any Party to any such waiver shall be valid only if set forth in a written instrument signed on behalf of such Party. Any waiver of any term or condition shall not be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach or a subsequent waiver of the same term or condition, or a waiver of any other term or condition of this Agreement. The failure of or delay by any Party to assert any of its rights hereunder shall not constitute a waiver of such rights.

Section 10.12    Counterparts; Facsimile Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by facsimile or scanned pages shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart to this Agreement.

Section 10.13    Knowledge of the Sellers. For all purposes of this Agreement, the phrase “to the Sellers’ knowledge,” “to the knowledge of the Sellers” and any derivations thereof or phrases having similar import thereto shall mean the actual knowledge, after reasonable inquiry of the relevant matter, of the individuals listed on Schedule 10.13.

Section 10.14    Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a)Each Party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any right to trial by jury of any claim, demand, Action, or cause of action (a) arising under this Agreement or (b) in any way connected with or related or incidental to the dealings of the Parties in respect of this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, in each case, whether now existing or hereafter arising, and whether in Contract, tort, equity, or otherwise. Each Party hereby agrees and consents that any such claim, demand, Action, or cause of action shall be decided by court trial without a jury and that the Parties may file an original counterpart of a copy of this Agreement with any court as written evidence of the consent of the Parties to the waiver of their right to trial by jury.

(b)Each Party to this Agreement irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right to a trial by jury, including in in any Action brought against the Debt Financing Source in any way arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, the Debt Financing or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the performance of any services thereunder, and agrees that any of them may file a copy of this paragraph with any court

Section 10.15    Jurisdiction and Venue. Each of the Parties (a) submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware (or, if the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any state or federal court within the State of Delaware) in any Action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, (b) agrees that all claims in respect of such Action or proceeding may be heard and determined in any such court and (c) agrees not to bring any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any other court. Each of the Parties waives any defense of inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any Action or proceeding so brought and waives any bond, surety or other security that might be required of any other Party with respect thereto. Each Party agrees that service of summons and complaint or any other process that might be served in any Action or proceeding may be made on such Party by sending or delivering a copy of the process to the Party to be served at the address of the Party and in the manner provided for the giving of notices in Section 10.2. Nothing in this Section 10.15, however, shall affect the right of any Party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by Law. Each Party agrees that a final, non-appealable judgment in any Action or proceeding so brought shall be conclusive and may be enforced by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, each of the Parties (i) agrees that any Action involving any Debt Financing Source arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, the Debt Financing or any of the agreements entered into in connection with the Debt Financing or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the performance of any services thereunder, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract, tort or otherwise (including any dispute arising out of or relating in any way to the Debt Commitment Letter) shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of any federal or state court in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York, so long as such forum is and remains available, and any appellate court thereof and each Party hereto irrevocably submits itself and its property with respect to any such Action to the exclusive jurisdiction of such court, (ii) agrees not bring or support any Action of any kind or description, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against the Debt Financing Sources under the Debt Commitment Letter in any way relating to this Agreement, the Debt Financing or any of the agreements entered into in connection with the Debt Financing or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the performance of any services thereunder, including any dispute arising out of or relating in any way to the Debt Commitment Letter, in any forum other than any federal or state court in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York, (iii) irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such Action in any such court and (iv) agrees that service of process upon any Party in any such Action or proceeding shall be effective if notice is given in accordance with Section 10.2.

(a)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 the Parties do not perform the provisions of this Agreement (including failing to take such actions as are required of it hereunder to consummate this Agreement) in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. Prior to the valid termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article 8, the Parties shall be entitled to seek an injunction, specific performance and other

equitable relief to prevent or cure breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, this being in addition to any other remedy to which the Parties are entitled at Law or in equity.

(b)Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything herein or in any Ancillary Document to the contrary, it is hereby acknowledged and agreed that the Sellers shall be entitled to seek specific performance to cause the Buyer to consummate the Closing in accordance with Article 2 if, but only if, (i) (x) all conditions set forth in Section 6.1 and Section 6.2 have been satisfied or waived (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied by actions taken at the Closing, each of which shall be capable of being satisfied on the date the Closing is required to have occurred pursuant to Section 2.1, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver thereof on such date), (y) the Buyer is required to complete the Closing pursuant to Section 2.1, and (z) the Buyer fails to complete the Closing by the date the Closing is required to have occurred pursuant to Section 2.1, (ii) the financing provided for by the Debt Commitment Letter (or, if Alternative Debt Financing, as the case may be) has been funded or will be funded at the Closing in accordance with the Commitment Letters, (iii) Sellers have validly delivered a Closing Failure Notice, and (iv) the Sellers have irrevocably confirmed in writing that, if specific performance is granted and the Financing is funded, then the Closing will occur in accordance with Article 2. For the avoidance of doubt, (1) specific performance in relation to the Buyer’s obligation to consummate the Closing shall not be available following the valid termination of this Agreement and (2) under no circumstances shall the Sellers be entitled to both receive a grant of specific performance to require the Buyer to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and also receive payment of the Buyer Termination Fee.

(c)Each of the Parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief when expressly available pursuant to the terms of this Agreement on the basis that (i) there is adequate remedy at Law or (ii) an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at Law or in equity. Any Party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement when expressly available pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement when expressly available pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such Order or injunction.

Section 10.17    Waivers. Recognizing that Dorsey & Whitney LLP and the legal counsel listed on Schedule 10.17 (collectively, the “Identified Counsel”) has acted as legal counsel to the Sellers and certain of their Affiliates and the Group Companies prior to the Closing, and that the Identified Counsel intends to act as legal counsel to the Sellers and certain of their Affiliates after the Closing, the Buyer hereby waives, on its own behalf and agrees to cause its Affiliates (including the Group Companies) to waive, any conflicts that may arise in connection with the Identified Counsel representing the Sellers and/or their Affiliates after the Closing as such representation may relate to the Buyer, the Group Companies or the transactions contemplated herein (including in respect of litigation). In addition, all communications involving attorney-client confidences between the Sellers, their Affiliates or the Group Companies, on the one hand, and the Identified Counsel, on the other hand, in the course of the negotiation, documentation and consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or otherwise shall be deemed to be attorney-client confidences that belong solely to the Sellers and their Affiliates (and not to the Buyer or the Group Companies). Accordingly, the Buyer agrees

that following the Closing neither it, nor any of the Group Companies nor any of their Affiliates, may use, or rely on or have access to any such communications or to the files of the Identified Counsel relating to its engagement with the Sellers and certain of their Affiliates and/or the Group Companies. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, upon and after the Closing, (i) the Sellers and their Affiliates shall be the sole holders of the attorney-client privilege with respect to such engagement, and neither the Buyer nor any Group Company shall be a holder thereof, (ii) to the extent that files of the Identified Counsel in respect of such engagement constitute property of the client, only the Sellers and their Affiliates (and not the Buyer or the Group Companies) shall hold such property rights and (iii) the Identified Counsel shall have no duty whatsoever to reveal or disclose any such attorney-client communications or files to the Buyer or any Group Company by reason of any attorney-client relationship between the Identified Counsel, on the one hand, and any of the Sellers or Group Companies, on the other hand, or otherwise.

Section 10.18    Non-Recourse. All claims or causes of action (whether in Contract or in tort, in Law or in equity) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement or the Ancillary Documents, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement or the Ancillary Documents (including any representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Agreement or the Ancillary Documents or as an inducement to enter into this Agreement or the Ancillary Documents), may be made only against the entities that are expressly identified as Parties hereto and parties thereto, except in the event of Fraud committed by such Non-Party Affiliate. No Person who is not a named party to this Agreement or the Ancillary Documents, including any past, present or future director, manager, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, equityholders (including stockholders and optionholders), Affiliate, agents, attorney or representative of any named party to this Agreement or the other Ancillary Documents or the Debt Financing Sources (“Non-Party Affiliates”), shall have any Liability (whether in Contract or in tort, in Law or in equity, or based upon any theory that seeks to impose Liability of an entity party against its owners or affiliates) for any obligations or Liabilities arising under, in connection with or related to this Agreement or such other Ancillary Document (as the case may be, and in the case of the Debt Financing Sources, arising under, in connection with or related to the Debt Commitment Letter or Debt Financing) or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of this Agreement or such other Ancillary Document (and in the case of the Debt Financing Sources, arising under, in connection with or related to the Debt Commitment Letter or Debt Financing) or the negotiation or execution hereof or thereof, except for in the event of Fraud; and each Party waives and releases all such Liabilities, claims and obligations against any such Non-Party Affiliates, except in the event of Fraud committed by such Non-Party Affiliate. Non-Party Affiliates are expressly intended as third-party beneficiaries of this provision of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in no event will any Seller Party be entitled to specific performance of any commitment letter or similar agreement entered into by the Buyer for any Debt Financing against the Debt Financing Sources providing such Debt Financing.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each of the Parties has caused this Agreement to be duly executed on its behalf as of the day and year first above written.
