17

subject to the Remedies Exception, and (iii) neither the Company nor, to the Knowledge of Seller, any other party thereto, is in default under any Company Lease, and, to the Knowledge of Seller, no event has occurred that constitutes, or that with the giving of notice or the passage of time or both would constitute, a material default under any Company Lease by the Company or by any other party to any Company Lease.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Buyer acknowledges that none of Seller, the Company or any of its or their Affiliates makes any representation or warranty with respect to (i) any projections, estimates or budgets delivered to or made available to Buyer of future operations, future revenues, future results of operations (or any component thereof), future cash flows or future financial condition (or any component thereof) of the businesses of the Company or (ii) any other information or documents made available to Buyer or its counsel, accountants or advisors with respect to the businesses of the Company, except as expressly set forth in Article 3 or Article 4.

ARTICLE 6

COVENANTS

On and after the Closing Date, Buyer will, and will cause the Company to, (i) maintain the books and records of the business of the Company for a period of eight (8) years; (ii) upon reasonable written notice and during Working Hours and at Seller’s sole cost and expense, afford to Seller and its agents reasonable access to (x) properties, copies of books and records for the period prior to Closing and (y) employees and auditors of the business of the Company, in each case to the extent necessary to permit Seller to perform or satisfy any legal or regulatory obligation relating to any period on or before the Closing Date or for any other reasonable purpose. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer shall not be required to provide access or disclose information to the extent that such access or disclosure would jeopardize the attorney-client privilege or contravene any Applicable Law.

26

Section 6.02.    Use of Seller Marks. Seller is not conveying ownership rights or granting Buyer nor any Affiliate of Buyer (including after the Closing, the Company) a license or other right to use any of the trade names, trademarks, service marks, logos or domain names owned by Seller or any Affiliate of Seller (other than the Company) (including the trade names “Williams,” “Williams Partners,” “Williams Hub,” “Williams Energy,” “Williams Energy Companies,” “We Make Energy Happen!” or any trade name, trademark, service mark, logo or domain name incorporating the trade names “Williams,” “Williams Partners,” “Williams Hub,” “Williams Energy,” “Williams Energy Companies,” or “We Make Energy Happen!”) (collectively, the “Seller Marks”) and, after the Closing, except as expressly permitted in this Section 6.02, Buyer shall not permit the Company or any Affiliate of the Company to use the Seller Marks or any name or mark that is a variation thereof or confusingly similar thereto. As promptly as practicable, and in any event no later than sixty (60) days after the Closing, except as expressly permitted in this Section 6.02, Buyer shall (and shall cause its Affiliates, including, after the Closing, the Company, to) take all necessary action to cease any and all use of the Seller Marks, including in marketing, promoting, advertising or offering for sale any products, goods or services. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6.02, after the Closing, Buyer and its Affiliates (including, after the Closing, the Company) may use the Seller Marks solely (i) on internal office supplies or signage not visible to consumers or the general public, provided that such supplies or signage are replaced promptly in the ordinary course of business, (ii) in a neutral, non-trademark manner to describe the historical relationship of Buyer, Seller and Company in an accurate and factual manner (it being understood that any such use shall include reasonable notices or legends indicating that Seller and its Affiliates are no longer affiliated with the Company), or (iii) to the extent required by Applicable Law in legal or business documents already in existence on the Closing Date. From and after the Closing, neither Buyer nor any Affiliate of Buyer (including, after the Closing, the Company) shall challenge the validity, enforceability or ownership of any of the Seller Marks expressly set forth above or that, immediately prior to the Closing Date, were Seller Marks used by the Company in the ordinary course of business. In the event of any actual or threatened violation of this Section 6.02, Seller shall be entitled to, in addition to other remedies that it may have, a temporary restraining order and other injunctive relief against Buyer or any applicable Affiliate of Buyer (including, after the Closing, the Company) to prevent or cease any violations of this Section 6.02.

Section 6.03.    Confidentiality; Public Announcements.

(a)    The parties acknowledge and agree that the Confidentiality Agreement shall terminate, effective as of the Closing Date. Seller agrees that, for a period of five (5) years from and after the Closing Date, Seller shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, treat and hold as confidential (i) all information concerning the businesses and affairs of the Company as of the Closing Date and (ii) the terms of this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements (including financial terms) (collectively, the “Confidential Information”). In the event that Seller or any of its Affiliates is requested or required by law, rule, regulation, stock exchange rule, or legal process to disclose any Confidential Information, it shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law and reasonably practicable, notify Buyer promptly of the request or requirement so that Buyer, at its

27

expense, may seek an appropriate protective order or waive compliance with the provisions of this Section 6.03. If such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, nor is a waiver hereunder provided, and Seller or any of its Affiliates is required to disclose any Confidential Information under Applicable Law, it may disclose the portions of the Confidential Information required to be disclosed (and only such portions); provided that it shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, at the request and expense of Buyer, an order or other assurance that confidential treatment shall be accorded to such portion of the Confidential Information required to be disclosed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes of this Agreement, Confidential Information shall not include (A) information that enters the public domain (or becomes generally known within the industry), other than as a result of a disclosure by Seller or any of its Affiliates in violation of this Section 6.03, (B) information acquired by Seller or any of its Affiliates from sources other than those related to its prior ownership of the Purchased Units or (C) information used by Seller’s Subsidiaries (other than the Company) prior to the Closing Date.

(b)    Neither party may issue any press release or make any other public announcement relating to this Agreement or the other Transaction Agreements or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including the financial terms hereof) without first consulting the other party regarding such press release or other public announcement and considering the other party’s comments in good faith (to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, any regulatory or supervisory body or the rules of any securities exchange to which the disclosing party is subject).

Section 6.04.    Directors and Officers. Buyer acknowledges that (a) each Person that prior to the Closing served as a director, officer, manager, employee, agent, trustee or fiduciary of the Company or who, at the request of the Company, served as a director, officer, manager, member, employee, agent, trustee or fiduciary of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, pension or other employee benefit plan or enterprise (collectively, with such Person’s heirs, executors or administrators, the “Indemnified Persons”) is entitled to indemnification, expense reimbursement and exculpation to the extent provided in the Governing Documents of the Company in effect as of the date hereof (“D&O Provisions”) and (b) no amendment or modification (including by merger, consolidation or operation of law) to any such D&O Provisions shall affect in any manner the Indemnified Persons’ rights, or the Company’s obligations, with respect to claims arising from facts or events that occurred on or before the Closing.

Section 6.05.    Employee and Related Matters.

(a)    Prior to the Closing Date, Buyer has made, or has caused an Affiliate of Buyer (“Employer”) to make, a Qualifying Offer of employment to each of the Business Employees. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Qualifying Offer” shall (i) be a written offer of employment substantially consistent with the terms of this Section 6.05 to a Business Employee for employment with Employer, (ii) be on terms or conditions comparable to similarly situated employees of Employer (with credit for years of service solely for purposes of vacation, paid time, sick leave, disability and severance entitlement and vesting and eligibility under any employee benefit plan (as defined in Section 3(3) of

28

ERISA) maintained by Employer or its Affiliate for similarly situated employees of Employer), (iii) offer employment at a principal work place no more than fifty (50) miles from such Business Employee’s principal work place as of the date of the Qualifying Offer, (iv) provide the same or more favorable annualized base salary as such Business Employee received as of the date of the Qualifying Offer, (v) provide that such employment will be effective (contingent upon the Business Employee’s timely acceptance of the Qualifying Offer in accordance with its terms and conditions, which Qualifying Offer shall provide that the Business Employee has until 2:00 p.m. Central Standard Time on April 1, 2019 for the Business Employee to accept) as of the Closing Date except as provided below, and (vi) otherwise be subject to the applicable employee screening and testing policies and procedures of Buyer or Employer and not inconsistent in any material respect with Buyer’s or Employer’s standard terms, conditions and policies of employment. A Business Employee who signifies his or her acceptance of a Qualifying Offer, but does not report for work as specified in the Qualifying Offer and does not otherwise satisfy each of the terms and conditions of such Qualifying Offer, shall be deemed not to have accepted the Qualifying Offer. A Business Employee who accepts and complies with the terms and conditions of a Qualifying Offer and assumes employment with Employer shall become an employee of Employer (a “Transferred Employee”) as of the following date and time: (i) in the case of a Business Employee who is not on a leave of absence on the Closing Date, 12:00 a.m. of the day after the Closing Date; and (ii) in the case of a Business Employee who is on any approved leave absence on the Closing Date, as of the date such Business Employee commences active employment with Employer (provided that such commencement of active employment occurs no later than 90 days following the Closing Date or such later time as may be required by Applicable Law). Without limiting Buyer’s obligation under the first sentence of this Section 6.05(a), if Employer does not make a Qualifying Offer to a Business Employee, Employer shall pay such Business Employee one (1) year of base salary as severance therefor.

(b)    For a period of twelve (12) months following the Closing Date, Employer shall not, and shall cause Buyer, Company and any of their respective Affiliates, as applicable, not to (i) relocate any Transferred Employee who remains employed by Employer to a distance more than fifty (50) miles from such Transferred Employee’s principal work place as of the date of the Qualifying Offer, unless the Transferred Employee shall agree otherwise, or (ii) terminate the employment of any Transferred Employee, other than for cause in accordance with Employer employment practices; provided, however, that in the event any such Transferred Employee either: (A) terminates his or her employment with Employer instead of accepting such relocation, or (B) has his or her employment terminated by Employer other than for cause (and, for the avoidance of doubt, not due to death, disability, or his or her resignation from employment), then Employer shall make available to such Transferred Employee (and, if such Transferred Employee satisfies the Release Condition (if any), pay to such Transferred Employee within sixty (60) days following his or her termination of employment) the Severance Payment, which Severance Payment may be conditioned upon the Transferred Employee’s execution and return to the Employer (and non-revocation in any time provided by the Employer to do so) of a comprehensive release of claims in a form acceptable to Employer (the “Release Condition”). As used herein, the

29

“Severance Payment” shall be a payment equal to the base salary or hourly wages (assuming a work schedule of no greater than 40 hours per week) that the applicable Transferred Employee would have earned between the date of his or her termination of employment and the date that is twelve (12) months following the Closing Date, had he or she remained continuously employed by Employer during that time.

(c)    For each Transferred Employee who elects to participate in an Employee Benefit Plan of Employer or its Affiliate that provides medical, dental, vision, life, accidental death and dismemberment, or disability benefits (not including any flexible spending account benefits or health savings account benefits) (an “Employer Welfare Plan”), the Employer or its Affiliate shall take all commercially reasonable steps to ensure that the applicable Employer Welfare Plan: (i) shall not require a physical examination or other proof of insurability, and shall waive all limitations relating to waiting periods and pre-existing conditions and actively-at-work requirements, with respect to any of the Transferred Employees or any dependent of such Transferred Employees who were covered by Seller’s and its Affiliates’ comparable Employee Benefit Plans (the “Seller Welfare Plans”) as of the Closing Date; and (ii) shall give credit to the Transferred Employees for expenses paid under the Seller Welfare Plans during the plan year in which the Closing occurs toward deductibles, co-insurance, and out-of-pocket maximums against satisfaction of any deductibles, co-insurance, and out-of-pocket maximums for the plan year under the Employer Welfare Plans to the same extent that such amounts would have been credited under the applicable Seller Welfare Plans. Employer will cause Employer’s or its applicable Affiliate’s flexible spending account plans to implement the 2019 elections made by the Transferred Employees under the flexible spending account plans of Seller or Seller’s Affiliates and shall cause Buyer or Buyer’s applicable Affiliate to assume liability for reimbursement claims for the Transferred Employees with respect to calendar year 2019 that are submitted for reimbursement on or after the Closing Date. Seller will provide Employer with such data as may be reasonably necessary for Employer to implement such elections, and all claims for reimbursement shall be subject to the terms of Employer’s or its Affiliate’s flexible spending account plans.

(d)    As soon as reasonably practicable following the Closing, with respect to the Transferred Employees and to the extent permitted under Applicable Law, Seller shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, transfer to Employer copies of personnel files (including performance reviews and scores, training course completion records, and, pursuant to a Transferred Employee’s specific written consent, DOT and non-DOT drug and alcohol records), DOT Operator Qualification Records and OSHA 8-hour HAZWOPER records (each to the extent applicable) related to such Transferred Employees that are required to be maintained by Employer or Employer’s Affiliates as a result of its operations of the Company.

(e)    Nothing expressly set forth or implied by this Agreement shall (i) confer upon any Business Employee, or legal representative thereof, any rights or remedies, including any right to employment or benefits for any specified period, of any nature or kind whatsoever, under or by reason of this Agreement, or (ii) be deemed to amend any employee benefit plan of Seller, Buyer or any of their respective Affiliates.

30

(f)    Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Seller and its Affiliates are solely responsible for any Liabilities relating to the employment of the Business Employees prior to the Closing (or, for Transferred Employees who are on a leave of absence as of the Closing, prior to the date that such Transferred Employee begins employment with Employer) and shall timely pay or provide to each Business Employee all remuneration, salaries, wages, commissions, bonuses, severance pay, vacation, sick and other paid leave and any other compensation or benefits under any of the Employee Plans arising out of services performed by such Business Employee in accordance with normal pay practices. Buyer shall be solely responsible for any Liabilities relating to the employment of the Transferred Employees on or after the date that such Transferred Employee begins employment with Employer.

Section 6.06.    Douglas Lease; Compression Services Agreement; Unisite Agreement.

(a)    Buyer hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller and its Affiliates from and against any and all payments required to be made under, and any and all Liabilities incurred in connection with or arising out of the Douglas Lease to the extent the same accrue from and after the date hereof. From and after the Closing, Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause replacement of any guarantee by Seller or any of its Affiliates related to the Douglas Lease (the “Douglas Guarantee”). Without limiting the foregoing, Buyer shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates (including, after the Closing, the Company) not to (i) amend the Douglas Lease in any manner that would, or would reasonably be expected, to (A) increase Seller’s or any of its Affiliates’ liability under the Douglas Guarantee, or (B) cause the Douglas Guarantee to be drawn upon, or (ii) extend or renew the Douglas Lease unless, prior to or concurrently with such amendment, extension or renewal, Seller and its Affiliates are released in respect of all obligations under the Douglas Guarantee.

(b)    Buyer shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates (including, after the Closing, the Company) not to, amend the assigned portion of the Compression Services Agreement in any manner that would, or would reasonably be expected to, increase Seller or any of its Affiliates’ exposure with respect thereto, or to extend or renew the assigned portion of the Compression Services Agreement unless, prior to or concurrently with such amendment, extension or renewal, Seller and its Affiliates are released in respect of all obligations with respect thereto. Buyer hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller and its Affiliates from and against any and all payments required to be made under, and any and all Liabilities incurred in connection with or arising out of the portion of the Compression Services Agreement related to the Company to the extent the same accrue from and after the date hereof.

(c)    The parties agree to cooperate and use commercially reasonable efforts to assign to the Company the Unisite Agreement and to obtain the release of Seller and its Affiliates from any liability thereunder accruing from and after such assignment. Until such time that Seller is able to assign to the Company the Unisite Agreement, Seller shall cause the Company to receive the use of, and benefits under, the Unisite Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, (i) Buyer shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates

31

(including, after the Closing, the Company) not to, amend the Unisite Agreement in any manner that would, or would be reasonably be expected to, increase Seller or any of its Affiliates’ exposure with respect thereto, or to extend or renew the Unisite Agreement unless, prior to or concurrently with such amendment, extension or renewal, Seller and its Affiliates are released in respect of all obligations with respect thereto and (ii) prior to any such assignment, Seller shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, (i) amend the Unisite Agreement in any manner that would, or would reasonably be expected to, increase Buyer or any of its Affiliates’ (including the Company) exposure with respect thereto following such assignment or (ii) exercise or waive any rights under the Unisite Agreement without obtaining the prior written consent of Buyer. Buyer hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller and its Affiliates from and against any and all payments required to be made under, and any and all Liabilities incurred in connection with or arising out of the Unisite Agreement to the extent the same accrue from and after the date hereof.

Section 6.07.    Waiver of Conflicts Regarding Representation; Nonassertion of Attorney-Client Privilege.

(a)    Buyer waives and will not assert, and agrees to cause the Company to waive and not to assert, any conflict of interest arising out of or relating to the representation, after the Closing (the “Post-Closing Representation”), of Seller or any shareholder, officer, employee or director of Seller or the Company (any such Person, a “Designated Person”) in any matter involving this Agreement or any other agreements or transactions contemplated thereby, including any litigation or other dispute proceeding between or among Buyer or its Affiliates, the Company and any Designated Person, by Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP or any other legal counsel currently representing the Company in connection with this Agreement or any other agreements or transactions contemplated thereby (whether or not such legal counsel also represented Seller) (the “Current Representation”), even though the interests of such Designated Person may be directly adverse to Buyer, its Affiliates, the Company.

(b)    It is the intention of the parties hereto that all rights to any attorney-client privilege applicable to communications between Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP and any other legal counsel currently representing the Company in connection with the Current Representation (whether or not such legal counsel also represented Seller) shall be retained solely by Seller (and not the Company); provided that the foregoing waiver and acknowledgement of retention shall not extend to any communication not involving this Agreement or any other agreements or transactions contemplated thereby. Accordingly, the Company shall not have access to any such communications, or to the files of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP or any other legal counsel currently representing the Company (whether or not such legal counsel also represented Seller) in connection with the Current Representation, from and after the Closing. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, upon and after the Closing, (i) Seller and its Affiliates shall be the sole holders of the attorney-client privilege with respect to the Current Representation, and the Company shall not be a holder thereof, (ii) to the extent that files of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP or any other legal counsel currently representing the Company in connection with the Current Representation (whether or not such legal counsel also represented Seller) constitute property of a client, only Seller and its Affiliates shall hold such property rights.

32

(c)    Buyer agrees, on its own behalf and on behalf of each of its Affiliates (including, after the Closing, the Company), that in the event of a dispute between Seller or an Affiliate of Seller, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, arising out of or relating to any matter in which Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP or any other legal counsel currently representing the Company in connection with the Current Representation jointly represented both (i) Seller and (ii) the Company, if applicable, neither the attorney-client privilege, the expectation of client confidence, nor any right to any other evidentiary privilege or any work product doctrine will protect against or prevent disclosure by Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP or any other legal counsel currently representing the Company in connection with the Current Representation to such Seller or an Affiliate of Seller of any information or documents developed or shared during the course of any such joint representation.

(d)    In the event that any third party shall seek to obtain from Buyer or its Affiliates (including, after the Closing, the Company) attorney-client communications involving Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP or any other legal counsel currently representing the Company in connection with the Current Representation, then Buyer shall notify Seller of such application sufficiently in advance of any hearing on the application to permit Seller to participate in any such proceedings.

Section 6.08.    Release. Effective as of the Closing, except for any rights or obligations under this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements or any Contract set forth on Section 2.04 of the Disclosure Schedule, (a) Buyer, on behalf of itself and each of its Affiliates (including the Company) (collectively, the “Buyer Releasing Parties”), hereby irrevocably and unconditionally releases and forever discharges Seller and its Affiliates (excluding the Company) (collectively, the “Seller Released Parties”) of and from any and all Actions, executions, judgments, duties, debts, dues, accounts, bonds, Contracts and covenants (whether express or implied), and claims and demands whatsoever whether in law or in equity (whether based upon contract, tort or otherwise) which the Buyer Releasing Parties may have against each of the Seller Released Parties in any capacity related to or affecting the Company occurring or arising on or prior to the Closing Date; provided that this Section 6.08 shall not release any Seller Released Party from any claim of gross negligence or fraud or willful misconduct by any Seller Released Party in performing its obligations under the Construction and Operating Agreement and (b) Seller, on behalf of itself and each of its Affiliates (collectively, the “Seller Releasing Parties”), hereby irrevocably and unconditionally releases and forever discharges Buyer and its Affiliates (including the Company) (collectively, the “Buyer Released Parties”) of and from any and all Actions, executions, judgments, duties, debts, dues, accounts, bonds, Contracts and covenants (whether express or implied), and claims and demands whatsoever whether in law or in equity (whether based upon contract, tort or otherwise) which the Seller Releasing Parties may have against each of the Buyer Released Parties in any capacity related to or affecting the Company occurring or arising on or prior to the Closing; provided that this Section 6.08 shall not release any Buyer Released Party from any claim of gross negligence or fraud or willful misconduct by the Company in performing its obligations under the Construction and Operating Agreement.

33

Section 6.09.    Further Assurances. Each party shall execute and deliver such further instruments of conveyance and transfer and take such additional action as reasonably requested by any other party to effect, consummate, confirm or evidence the transactions contemplated hereby and carry out the purposes of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent the parties discover that assets of the Company were not located on the Company’s properties or titled in the Company’s name at the Closing, the parties shall cooperate to promptly deliver or assign, as applicable, such assets to the Company.

ARTICLE 7

TAX MATTERS

Section 7.01.    Tax Covenants.

(a)    Buyer shall not cause or permit the Company or any Affiliate of Buyer, with respect to the Company, to make or change any material Tax election, amend any material Tax Return, initiate any voluntary disclosure with respect to material Taxes, agree to extend or waive any statute of limitations with respect to material Taxes, take any Tax position on any material Tax Return or take any other action, in each case, with respect to any material Pass-Through Income Tax Matter for any Pre-Closing Tax Period without the prior written consent of Seller (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed). For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the parties shall cooperate to make a “push-out” election under Section 6226 of the Code or any analogous election under state or local Tax law with respect to any Pass-Through Income Tax Matter for any Pre-Closing Tax Period.

(b)     Seller shall prepare, or cause to be prepared in a manner consistent with the relevant provisions of the Company LLC Agreement, first drafts of all Income Tax Returns (including Internal Revenue Service Form 1065 and similar forms for state and local Tax purposes) required to be filed by the Company for all Tax periods ending on or before the Closing Date. Buyer shall, or shall cause its Affiliates or the Company to, prepare or cause to be prepared first drafts all other Tax Returns for the Company that are due after the Closing Date. All first drafts of Tax Returns described in this Section 7.01(b) shall be prepared on a basis consistent with past practice except to the extent otherwise required by Applicable Law. At least thirty (30) days prior to the due date for filing any Tax Return (including extensions) described in this Section 7.01(b) that relates to a Pre-Closing Tax Period, the party preparing such Tax Return will deliver the first draft of such Tax Return, together with all supporting documentation and workpapers, to the other party for its review and comment. The non-preparing party shall provide any reasonable comments to any such draft Tax Return no later than fifteen (15) days after receipt of such draft from the preparing party, and the preparing party will cause such Tax Return (as revised to taken into account the other party’s reasonable comments) to be filed timely with the appropriate Governmental Authority and will provide a copy to the

34

non-preparing party. Not later than five (5) days prior to the due date for payment of Taxes with respect to such Tax Return, the Seller will pay to (or at the direction of) Buyer the amount of any Seller Taxes (other than any Seller Taxes described in clause (c) of the definition of Seller Taxes) with respect to such Tax Return.

(c)    Except to the extent inconsistent with this Section 7.01(c), any and all pending or threatened Tax audits, assessments, controversies or litigation (“Tax Proceedings”) of or with respect to the Company shall be governed by Section 8.05. From and after the Closing, Buyer shall notify Seller in writing within ten (10) Business Days of receipt by Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including the Company) of written notice of any Tax Proceedings with respect to a Pass-Through Income Tax Matter for a Pre-Closing Tax Period (a “Covered Tax Proceeding”); provided, the failure to give such written notice shall not, however, relieve Seller or any of its Affiliates of its indemnification obligations (or require any indemnification from Buyer or its Affiliates), except and only to the extent that the Seller is adversely prejudiced as a result of such failure. To the extent Seller would have had control rights under the Company LLC Agreement, Seller shall have the right to elect in writing, within fifteen (15) Business Days of receiving notice hereunder, to control, at Seller’s sole cost and expense, any such Covered Tax Proceeding which relates primarily to Pass-Through Income Tax Matters; provided, that, Buyer’s rights with respect to any such Tax Proceeding, and Seller’s duties, responsibilities and obligations with respect to such Tax Proceeding, shall be no less than would be provided for pursuant to the Company LLC Agreement.

(d)    All Transfer Taxes incurred in connection with transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including any real property transfer Tax and any similar Taxes) shall be borne and paid 50% by Buyer and 50% by Seller when due. The party responsible under Applicable Law for filing any necessary documentation and Tax Returns with respect to such Transfer Taxes shall timely prepare and file such documentation and Tax Returns with the cooperation of the other party. The parties shall cooperate in good faith to minimize, to the extent permissible under Applicable Law, the amount of any such Transfer Taxes.

(e)    Following the Closing, unless otherwise required by Applicable Law, any payments made pursuant to any provision of this Agreement between Buyer (or any Affiliate thereof) and Seller (and any Affiliate thereof) shall be treated by the parties for U.S. federal income Tax purposes, and other applicable Tax purposes, as an adjustment to the Purchase Price.

Section 7.02.    Cooperating on Tax Matters.

(a)    Buyer and Seller shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party, in connection with the preparation and filing of any Tax Return or the handling of any Tax Proceeding.

35

(b)    Buyer and Seller further agree, and agree to cause their respective Affiliates, upon request, to use all reasonable efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any Governmental Authority or customer of the Company or any other Person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any Tax that could be imposed (including with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby).

(c)    From and after the Closing, Buyer shall cause the Company to retain or cause to be retained all books and records pertinent to Taxes of the Company relating to any Pre-Closing Tax Period until the applicable period for assessment under Applicable Law (giving effect to any extensions or waivers) has expired, and to abide by or cause the abidance with all record retention agreements entered into with any Tax authority. From and after the Closing, Buyer and the Company shall provide, at Seller’s cost and expense, any Tax-related documents, information or other assistance reasonably requested by Seller in connection with this Agreement.

Section 7.03.    Agreed Tax Treatment and Allocation.

(a)     For U.S. federal income Tax purposes (and applicable state and local income Tax purposes), the parties hereto agree to treat the purchase and sale of the Purchased Units as follows, as provided in Revenue Ruling 99-6, 1999-1 C.B. 432 (Situation 1): (i) with respect to Buyer, the Company is deemed to make a liquidating distribution of all of its assets to Seller and Buyer, and following this distribution, Buyer is treated as acquiring the assets deemed to have been distributed to Seller in liquidation of Seller’s Purchased Units, and (ii) with respect to Seller, Seller is treated as selling the Purchased Units (the “Agreed Tax Treatment”). The parties will prepare and file all Tax Returns consistent with the Agreed Tax Treatment and will not take any inconsistent position on any Tax Return, or during the course of any proceeding with respect to Taxes, except as otherwise required by Applicable Law following a final determination by a court of competent jurisdiction or other administrative settlement with or final administrative decision by the relevant Governmental Authority. The parties shall promptly inform one another in writing of any written inquiry or Tax Proceeding by any Taxing Authority with respect to the Agreed Tax Treatment and consult and keep one another informed with respect to the status of such inquiry or Tax Proceeding.

(b)    As promptly as practicable after the Closing Date, but in no event later than ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall deliver to Seller a proposed statement (the “Allocation Statement”), allocating the Purchase Price (and any other items properly treated as consideration for U.S. federal income Tax purposes, to the extent known at such time) among the assets of the Company in accordance with Section 741, Section 751 and Section 1060 of the Code. If Seller objects in writing to the Allocation Statement within thirty (30) days of receiving such Allocation Statement, Seller and Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to agree to an allocation of the Purchase Price; provided, that if Seller does not timely object, the parties shall be deemed to have agreed to Buyer’s proposed Allocation Statement. Buyer and Seller shall file all applicable Tax Returns in a manner consistent with the agreed Allocation Statement as finalized under this Section 7.03 and neither Buyer nor Seller shall take any position inconsistent with such allocation on any Tax Return, audit, examination, investigation or similar proceeding, unless required to do so by Applicable Law. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, if the parties are unable to reach a mutual agreement with respect to

36

any matter related to the Allocation Statement within thirty (30) days of any timely objection by Seller pursuant to the prior sentence, each party shall be permitted to take an independent position with respect to the Purchase Price allocation on its applicable Tax Returns or in connection with any audit, examination, investigation or similar proceeding related thereto.

Section 7.04.    Survival. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the covenants and agreements contained in Article 7 shall survive for the full period of all applicable statutes of limitations (giving effect to any waiver, mitigation or extension thereof).

ARTICLE 8

INDEMNIFICATION

Section 8.01.    Survival. None of the representations and warranties of the parties contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing; provided that subject to the limitations and other provisions of this Agreement, the (x) Fundamental Warranties, other than those contained in Section 3.15, shall survive the Closing and shall remain in full force and effect until the date that is six (6) months from the Closing Date and (y) the representations and warranties in Section 3.15 shall survive for the full period of all applicable statutes of limitations (giving effect to any waiver, mitigation or extension thereof) plus 60 days. All covenants and agreements of the parties contained herein shall survive the Closing indefinitely or for the period explicitly specified therein.

38

(a)    Third Party Claims. If any Indemnified Party receives notice of the assertion or commencement of any Action made or brought by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of a party to this Agreement or a Representative of the foregoing (a “Third Party Claim”) against such Indemnified Party with respect to which the Indemnifying Party is or may be required to provide indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than fifteen (15) calendar days after receipt of such notice of such Third Party Claim. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is actually and materially prejudiced thereby. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Third Party Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in, or by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party, to assume the defense of any Third Party Claim at the Indemnifying Party’s expense and by the Indemnifying Party’s own counsel, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in good faith in such defense; provided that the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to defend or direct the defense of any such Third Party Claim that seeks an injunction or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates; provided that, in such event, the Indemnifying Party may, at its option and expense through counsel of its choice, participate in (but not control) the defense thereof. In the event that the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, subject to Section 8.05(b), it shall have the right to take such action as it deems necessary to avoid, dispute, defend, appeal or make counterclaims pertaining to any such Third Party Claim in the name and on behalf of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense of any such Third Party Claim with counsel selected by it subject to the Indemnifying Party’s right to control the defense thereof. The fees and disbursements of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party, provided, that if in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Indemnified Party, (A) there are legal defenses available to an Indemnified Party that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party and which could be materially adverse to the Indemnifying Party; or (B) the representation of both the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party by the same counsel creates a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party that cannot be waived, the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the reasonable, out-of-pocket, documented fees and expenses of one counsel to the Indemnified Party in each jurisdiction for which the Indemnified Party determines counsel is required. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to compromise or defend such Third Party Claim, fails to promptly notify the Indemnified Party in writing of its election to defend as provided in this Agreement, or declines to prosecute the defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may, subject to Section 8.05(b), pay, compromise, defend such Third Party Claim and seek indemnification for any and all Losses based upon, arising from or relating to such Third Party Claim subject, in all respects, to the other limitations set forth herein. Seller and Buyer shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any Third Party Claim, including making available (records relating to such

39

Third Party Claim and furnishing, without expense (other than reimbursement of actual out-of-pocket expenses) to the defending party, management employees of the non-defending party as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of such Third Party Claim.

(b)    Settlement of Third Party Claims. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, neither the Indemnified Party nor the Indemnifying Party shall settle or compromise any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the other party, except as provided in this Section 8.05(b). If an offer is made to settle a Third Party Claim without leading to liability or the creation of a financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party (other than monetary damages that will be paid in full by the Indemnifying Party) and provides, in customary form, for the unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all liabilities and obligations in connection with such Third Party Claim and the Indemnifying Party desires to accept and agree to such offer, the Indemnifying Party shall give written notice to that effect to the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such offer within ten (10) days after its receipt of such notice, the Indemnified Party may continue to contest or defend such Third Party Claim and in such event, the maximum liability of the Indemnifying Party as to such Third Party Claim shall not exceed the amount of such settlement offer. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such offer and also fails to assume defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may settle the Third Party Claim upon the terms set forth in such offer to settle such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnified Party has assumed the defense pursuant to Section 8.05(a), it shall not agree to any settlement without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(c)    Direct Claims. Any Action by an Indemnified Party on account of a Loss which does not result from a Third Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”) shall be asserted by the Indemnified Party giving the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than fifteen (15) days after the Indemnified Party becomes aware of such Direct Claim. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is actually and materially prejudiced thereby. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Direct Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days after its receipt of such notice to respond in writing to such Direct Claim. The Indemnified Party shall allow the Indemnifying Party and its professional advisors to investigate the matter or circumstance alleged to give rise to the Direct Claim, and whether and to what extent any amount is payable in respect of the Direct Claim and the Indemnified Party shall assist the Indemnifying Party’s investigation by giving such information and assistance (including access to the Company’s premises and personnel and the right to examine and copy any accounts, documents or records) as the Indemnifying Party or any of its professional advisors may reasonably request. If the Indemnifying Party does not so respond within such thirty (30) day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have rejected such claim, in which case the Indemnified Party shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to the Indemnified Party on the terms and subject to the provisions of this Agreement.

Section 8.06.    Calculation of Losses

(a)    The amount of any Losses payable under this Article 8 by the Indemnifying Party shall be net of any amounts recovered by the Indemnified Party or its Affiliates under applicable insurance policies (less expenses (including premium increases) incurred by such Indemnified Party in collecting such amount. If the Indemnified Party receives any amounts under applicable insurance policies, then such Indemnified Party shall promptly reimburse the Indemnifying Party for any payment made or out-of-pocket expense incurred by such Indemnifying Party in connection with providing such indemnification payment up to the amount received by the Indemnified Party, net of any expenses (including premium increases) incurred by such Indemnified Party in collecting such amount. Each Indemnified Party and its Affiliates shall use reasonable efforts to collect any amounts available under insurance for any Losses payable under this Article 8.

(b)    Each Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate in accordance with Applicable Law any Losses for which such Indemnified Party seeks indemnification under this Agreement, including by taking any actions reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party for such purpose, including incurring costs only to the minimum extent necessary to remedy the breach that gives rise to such Losses.

(c)    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if on the Closing Date, Buyer had Knowledge of any information that would, or would reasonably be expected to, cause one or more of the representations and warranties made by the Indemnifying Party to be inaccurate as of the date made, the Indemnified Party shall have no right or remedy after the Closing with respect to such inaccuracy and shall be deemed to have waived its rights to indemnification in respect thereof.

Section 8.07.    Payments. Once a Loss is agreed to by the Indemnifying Party or finally adjudicated to be payable pursuant to this Article 8, the Indemnifying Party shall satisfy its obligations within fifteen (15) Business Days of such final, non-appealable adjudication by wire transfer of immediately available funds. The parties hereto agree that should an Indemnifying Party not make full payment of any such obligations within such fifteen (15) Business Day period, any amount payable shall accrue interest from and including the date of agreement of the Indemnifying Party or final, non-appealable adjudication to and including the date such payment has been made at a rate per annum equal to the rate of interest publicly announced by J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. in the City of New York from time to time during such period, as such bank’s Prime Lending Rate. Such interest shall be calculated daily on the basis of a 365 day year and the actual number of days elapsed.

41

Section 8.08.    Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments. All indemnification payments made under this Agreement shall be treated by the parties as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Applicable Law.
