Execution Version

Attached hereto as Schedule 2.05 is a statement (the “Estimated Working Capital Statement”), together with reasonable supporting detail and related calculations, setting forth Sellers’ good faith estimate of the Closing Working Capital (“Estimated Working Capital”) and the amount (which may be a negative number) equal to the (i) Estimated Working Capital minus (ii) the Target Working Capital (the “WC Variance Amount”).

Section 2.06Purchase Price Adjustment.

(a)Post-Closing Working Capital Adjustment.

(i)Within 60 days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Sellers a statement setting forth its calculation of Closing Working Capital and the Post-Closing Adjustment, which statement shall be substantially in the form of the Estimated Working Capital Statement (the “Closing Working Capital Statement”) and will use the same accounting methods, practices, principles, policies and procedures, with consistent classifications, judgments and valuation and estimation methodologies that were used in the preparation of the Audited Financial Statements for the most recent fiscal year end and in preparation of the Estimated Working Capital Statement, subject to the modifications and limitations set forth on the Estimated Working Capital Statement.

(ii)The “Post-Closing Adjustment” shall be an amount equal to the Closing Working Capital minus the Estimated Working Capital. If the Post-Closing Adjustment is a positive number, Buyer shall pay to the Sellers, to an account designated in writing by the Sellers, an amount equal to the Post-Closing Adjustment. If the Post-Closing Adjustment is a negative number, Sellers shall pay to Buyer an amount equal to the Post-Closing Adjustment, which payment shall be made first from the Adjustment Escrow Fund (and Sellers and Buyer will take all actions required under the Escrow Agreement to cause such payment to be made by the Escrow Agent to Buyer) and in the event that the available amount in the Adjustment Escrow Fund is insufficient to pay the full amount of the Post-Closing Adjustment to Buyer, Sellers will pay the amount of such deficiency to an account designated in writing by Buyer. Following payment of the Post-Closing Adjustment in accordance with this Section 2.06(a)(ii), the amount, if any, remaining in the Adjustment Escrow Fund shall be paid to Sellers (and Sellers and Buyer will take all actions required under the Escrow Agreement to cause such payment to be made).

(b)Examination and Review of Closing Working Capital.

(i)Examination. After delivery of the Closing Working Capital Statement, Sellers shall have 60 days (the “Review Period”) to review the Closing Working Capital Statement. During the Review Period, Sellers shall have access to the relevant Books and Records of Buyer, the personnel of, and work papers prepared by, Buyer and/or Buyer’s accountants to the extent that they relate to the

Execution Version

Closing Working Capital Statement and to such historical financial information (to the extent in Buyer’s possession) relating to the Closing Working Capital Statement as Sellers may reasonably request for the purpose of reviewing the Closing Working Capital Statement and to prepare a Statement of Objections (defined below), provided that such access shall be in a manner that does not interfere with the normal business operations of Buyer.

(ii)Objection. On or prior to the last day of the Review Period, Sellers may object to the Closing Working Capital Statement by delivering to Buyer a written statement setting forth Sellers’ objections in reasonable detail, indicating each disputed item or amount and the basis for Sellers’ disagreement therewith (the “Statement of Objections”). If Sellers fail to deliver the Statement of Objections before the expiration of the Review Period, the Closing Working Capital Statement and the Post-Closing Adjustment reflected in the Closing Working Capital Statement shall be deemed to have been accepted by Sellers. If Sellers deliver the Statement of Objections before the expiration of the Review Period, Sellers and Buyer shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such objections within 30 days after the delivery of the Statement of Objections (the “Resolution Period”), and, if the same are so resolved within the Resolution Period, the Closing Working Capital Statement with such changes to the Closing Working Capital and the Post-Closing Adjustment as may have been previously agreed in writing by Sellers and Buyer, shall be final and binding.

(iii)Resolution of Disputes. If Sellers and Buyer fail to reach an agreement with respect to all of the disputed items or amounts set forth in the Statement of Objections before expiration of the Resolution Period, then any items or amounts remaining in dispute (“Disputed Amounts” and any amounts not so disputed, the “Undisputed Amounts”) shall be submitted for resolution to the office of RSM US LLP or, if RSM US LLP is unable to serve, Buyer and Sellers shall appoint by mutual agreement the office of an impartial nationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants other than Sellers’ accountants or Buyer’s accountants (the “Independent Accountant”) who, acting as experts and not arbitrators, shall resolve the Disputed Amounts only and make any adjustments to the Closing Working Capital Statement to reflect such resolution of the Disputed Amounts in the Closing Working Capital and Post-Closing Adjustment. The parties hereto agree that all adjustments shall be made without regard to materiality. The Independent Accountant shall only decide the specific items under dispute by the parties and their decision for each Disputed Amount must be within the range of values assigned to each such item in the Closing Working Capital Statement and the Statement of Objections, respectively.

(iv)Fees of the Independent Accountant. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant shall be paid by Sellers, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, based upon the percentage that the amount actually contested but not awarded to Sellers or Buyer, respectively, bears to the aggregate amount actually contested in the Statement of Objections by Sellers in respect of such Disputed Amounts, as determined by the Independent Accountant.

Execution Version

(v)Determination by Independent Accountant. The Independent Accountant shall make a determination as soon as practicable within 30 days (or such other time as the parties hereto shall agree in writing) after their engagement, and unless otherwise agreed in writing by Buyer and Sellers, the Independent Accountant’s resolution of the Disputed Amounts and their adjustments to the Closing Working Capital Statement and/or the Post-Closing Adjustment shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties hereto.

(vi)Payments of Post-Closing Adjustment. Except as otherwise provided herein, any payment of the Post-Closing Adjustment shall (A) be due (x) within five Business Days of acceptance of the applicable Closing Working Capital Statement or (y) if there are Disputed Amounts, then within five Business Days of the resolution described in clause (v) above; and (B) be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account as is directed by Buyer or Sellers, as the case may be.

(vii)Certain Accounts Receivable. If (A) in the course of determining the Post-Closing Adjustment in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.06, the final Closing Working Capital used to calculate the Post-Closing Adjustment does not include one or more Accounts Receivable that was included in the Estimated Working Capital set forth in the Estimated Working Capital Statement (the “Specified Accounts Receivable”), and (B) Buyer receives payment of any Specified Accounts Receivable within 180 days following the date that the Post-Closing Adjustment is finally determined in accordance with this Section 2.06, then Buyer shall pay to Sellers an aggregate amount equal to the payment received in respect of any Specified Accounts Receivable less the amount of any direct out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Buyer in connection with collecting such Specified Accounts Receivable.

(c)Specified Event Adjustment. Buyer shall not be obligated to pay the Specified Event Escrow Amount to Sellers unless and until the Specified Event occurs as set forth in Schedule 2.06(c). Upon the occurrence of the Specified Event as set forth in Schedule 2.06(c), Buyer and Sellers will promptly take all actions required under the Escrow Agreement to cause the Specified Event Escrow Fund to be paid to Sellers. If the Specified Event has not occurred on or before the ninetieth (90th) day after the Closing Date, Buyer and Sellers will promptly take all actions required under the Escrow Agreement to cause the Specified Event Escrow Fund to be paid to Buyer.

Section 2.07Allocation of Purchase Price

. Within 90 days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall provide a schedule to Sellers allocating the Purchase Price (including any Assumed Liabilities treated as consideration for Tax purposes) among the Purchased Assets in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder (the “Allocation Schedule”). Sellers shall provide Buyer with any comments on the Allocation Schedule within 15 days after receipt thereof, and Sellers and Buyer shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any disputes. If Sellers do not provide Buyer with any comments within 15 days, or if the parties agree to resolution of any disputes, then Sellers (and their respective Affiliates) and Buyer (and its Affiliates) shall not take any position inconsistent with the agreed Allocation Schedule on any

Execution Version

Tax Return or otherwise. If the parties are unable to reach agreement with respect to the Allocation Schedule, then the parties shall have no further obligation under this Section 2.07 and each party shall make its own determination of the allocation for financial and Tax reporting purposes.

Section 2.08Assignment of Contracts; Rights and Obligations.

(a)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, and subject to the provisions of this Section 2.08, to the extent that the assignment to Buyer of any Contract would require the consent, or waiver of a Person who is not a party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of a party to this Agreement (including any Governmental Authority), and such consent or waiver shall not have been obtained prior to the Closing, this Agreement shall not constitute an assignment of such Contract. Each Seller shall use its reasonable best efforts, at its sole cost and expense, and shall cooperate with Buyer, to obtain any such required consent or waiver. Once such consent or waiver is obtained, each Seller shall sell, assign, transfer, convey and deliver to Buyer the relevant Contract to which such consent or waiver relates for no additional consideration.

(b)To the extent that any Contract cannot be assigned to Buyer pursuant to this Section 2.08, Buyer and Sellers shall negotiate in good faith the terms of such arrangements (such as subleasing, sublicensing or subcontracting) necessary to provide the parties the economic and operational equivalent of the transfer of such Contract to Buyer. Pending Buyer and Sellers entering into any such arrangements, Sellers shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide to the Buyer all of the rights and interests in and to such Contract as of the Closing and, where necessary or appropriate, the applicable Seller(s) shall be deemed to be Buyer’s agent for the purpose of completing or fulfilling all of Buyer’s rights and Liabilities arising after the Closing Date under such Contract. Each Seller shall use its reasonable best efforts to provide Buyer with all of the benefits of such Contract, including (i) enforcing any rights under such Contract (including, at the request of Buyer, the right to terminate such Contract) and (ii) permitting Buyer to enforce any rights under such Contract (as if such Contract had been assigned and transferred to Buyer).

Section 2.09Tax Withholding

. Buyer shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amount otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement any amounts as may be required to be deducted and withheld under applicable Law. To the extent amounts are so deducted and withheld, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid on behalf of and to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

(b)With respect to any employee benefit plan maintained by Buyer or an Affiliate of Buyer (collectively, “Buyer Benefit Plans”) for the benefit of any Transferred Employee, effective as of the Closing, Buyer shall, or shall cause its Affiliate to, recognize all service of the Transferred Employees with Sellers, as if such service were with Buyer, for vesting, eligibility and accrual purposes; provided, however, such service shall not be recognized to the extent that (x) such recognition would result in a duplication of benefits or (y) such service was not recognized under the corresponding Benefit Plan.

(c)Effective as of the Closing, the Transferred Employees shall cease active participation in the Benefit Plans. Sellers shall remain liable for all eligible claims for benefits under the Benefit Plans that are incurred by the Employees prior to the Closing Date. For purposes of this Agreement, the following claims shall be deemed to be incurred as follows: (i) life, accidental death and dismemberment, short-term disability, and workers’ compensation insurance benefits, on the event giving rise to such benefits; (ii) medical, vision, dental, and prescription drug benefits, on the date the applicable services, materials or supplies were provided; and (iii) long-term disability benefits, on the date of the injury, sickness or other event giving rise to such benefits. In addition, following the Closing Date, Sellers shall pay out any unused paid vacation accrued prior to the Closing Date by Transferred Employees to the extent required by applicable Law.

(d)Except as required by applicable Law, Buyer and Sellers intend that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement should not constitute a separation, termination or severance of employment of any Employee who accepts an employment offer by Buyer, including for purposes of any Benefit Plan that provides for separation, termination or severance benefits, and that each such Employee will have continuous employment immediately before and immediately after the Closing. Buyer shall be liable and hold the Sellers harmless for: (i) any statutory, common law, contractual or other severance with respect to any Employee, other than an Employee who has received an offer of employment by Buyer and declines such offer; and (ii) any claims relating to the employment of any Transferred Employee arising following the Closing.

No Seller shall, and each Seller shall cause its Related Persons not to, disclose any Business Information to any Person (other than Buyer or its Affiliates or officers or employees of Buyer or its Affiliates who are subject to an obligation of confidentiality to Buyer or any of its Affiliates) or use any of the Business Information. If any Seller or any of their respective Affiliates is compelled to disclose any Business Information by judicial or administrative process, such Seller shall promptly notify Buyer in writing of such requirement so that Buyer may seek an appropriate protective order or other appropriate remedy or waive compliance with the provisions of this Section 6.02. If, in the absence of a protective order or other remedy or the receipt of a waiver from Buyer, such Seller or any of its Affiliates is nonetheless compelled to disclose any Business Information by judicial or administrative process, such Seller or such Affiliate may disclose only that portion of the Business Information that its counsel advises is legally required to be disclosed under pain of liability for contempt or other censure or penalty; provided, that such Seller exercises, or causes such Affiliate to exercise, commercially reasonable efforts to preserve the confidentiality of the Business Information so disclosed, including by cooperating with Buyer to obtain an appropriate protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such Business Information.

(b)During the Restricted Period, Sellers shall not, and shall not permit any of their respective Affiliates to, directly or indirectly, hire or solicit any person who is offered employment by Buyer pursuant to Section 6.01(a) or is or was employed in the Business during the Restricted Period, or encourage any such employee to leave such employment or hire any such employee who has left such employment, except pursuant

(c)From and after the Closing Date, Sellers shall not, and shall cause its Related Persons not to, directly or indirectly, make any statement that is intended to become public, or that could reasonably be expected to become public, and that criticizes, ridicules, disparages or is otherwise derogatory of the Business, Buyer or any of their respective Affiliates, employees, officers, directors or stockholders.

(d)Each Seller acknowledges that a breach or threatened breach of this Section 6.03 would give rise to irreparable harm to Buyer, for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy, and hereby agrees that in the event of a breach or a threatened breach by any Seller of any such obligations, Buyer shall, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies that may be available to it in respect of such breach, be entitled to equitable relief, including a temporary restraining order, an injunction, specific performance and any other relief that may be available from a court of competent jurisdiction (without any requirement to post bond).

(e)Each Seller acknowledges that the restrictions contained in this Section 6.03 are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate interests of Buyer and constitute a material inducement to Buyer to enter into this Agreement and consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In the event that any covenant contained in this Section 6.03 should ever be adjudicated to exceed the time, geographic, product or service or other limitations permitted by applicable Law in any jurisdiction, then any court is expressly empowered to reform such covenant, and such covenant shall be deemed reformed, in such jurisdiction to the maximum time, geographic, product or service or other limitations permitted by applicable Law. The covenants contained in this Section 6.03 and each provision hereof are severable and distinct covenants and provisions. The invalidity or unenforceability of any such covenant or provision as written shall not invalidate or render unenforceable the remaining covenants or provisions hereof, and any such invalidity or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such covenant or provision in any other jurisdiction.

(ii)upon reasonable notice, afford the Buyer’s Representatives reasonable access (including the right to make, at Buyer’s expense, photocopies), during normal business hours, to such books and records.

(c)Neither Buyer nor any Seller shall be obligated to provide the other party with access to any books or records (including personnel files) pursuant to this Section 6.04 where such access would violate any Law.

Section 6.05Public Announcements

. The parties hereby waive compliance with the provisions of any bulk sales, bulk transfer or similar Laws of any jurisdiction that may otherwise be applicable with respect to the sale of any or all of the Purchased Assets to Buyer (it being understood that any Liabilities arising out of the failure of any Seller to comply with the requirements and provisions of any bulk sales, bulk transfer or similar Laws of any jurisdiction which would not otherwise constitute Assumed Liabilities shall be treated as Excluded Liabilities).

Section 6.07Receivables; Mail

. From and after the Closing, (a) if any Seller or any of their respective Affiliates receives or collects any funds relating to any Accounts Receivable or any other Purchased Asset or otherwise receives any monies or checks relating to the Business which should have been sent to Buyer, such Seller or such Affiliate shall remit such funds to Buyer promptly (and in any event within five Business Days after receipt thereof), (b) each Seller authorizes and empowers Buyer to receive and open all mail (including e-mail) and other

Execution Version

communications received by Buyer which Buyer reasonably believes to be relating to the Business and to deal with the contents of such communications in good faith, (c) each Seller will promptly (and in any event within five Business Days) deliver to Buyer any mail (including e-mail) or other communication received by such Seller pertaining to the Business, and (d) Buyer will not take any action with the intent of preventing or delaying payment of Accounts Receivable from customers of the Business relating to services performed by Sellers prior to the Closing Date. Each Seller agrees that Buyer has the right and authority to endorse, without recourse, any check or other evidence of indebtedness received by Buyer in respect of any note or Account Receivable transferred to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement and such Seller shall furnish Buyer such evidence of this authority as Buyer may reasonably request.

Section 6.08Certain Tax Matters.

(a)All Transfer Taxes shall be borne and paid by Sellers when due. Each Seller shall, at its own expense, timely file any Tax Return or other document with respect to all such Transfer Taxes, and if required by applicable Law, Buyer shall join in the execution of any such Tax Returns or other document.

(d)For purposes of this Agreement, all real property Taxes, personal property Taxes and similar ad valorem obligations levied with respect to the Business or the Purchased Assets for any Straddle Period shall be prorated between the portion of such Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date and the portion of such Straddle Period beginning on the day after the Closing Date based on the relative number of days in each such portion.

(e)After the Closing Date, Buyer and Sellers shall provide each other with such cooperation and information relating to Non-Income Taxes attributable to the Business or the Purchased Assets as the other may reasonably request. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Person shall be unreasonably required to prepare any document, or determine any information not then in its possession in response to a request under this Section 6.08(e).

Execution Version

Section 6.09Misallocated Assets

. Following the Closing, in the event that Buyer or any Seller discovers that any Purchased Asset was not transferred to Buyer at the Closing, Sellers shall, or shall cause their respective Affiliates to, assign, transfer and convey such asset to Buyer for no additional consideration, and shall execute such further documents and instruments necessary to give effect to and evidence such assignment, transfer and conveyance. To the extent there exists any intellectual property (other than trademarks) owned by any Seller or any of their respective Affiliates following the Closing that was used substantively in the Business as of or prior to the Closing, each Seller hereby grants, and shall cause its Affiliates to grant, a royalty-free, fully paid-up, perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive, worldwide, sublicensable license in, to and under such intellectual property to Buyer and its Affiliates to continue using such intellectual property in the manner it was used in the Business as of or prior to the Closing Date and in natural evolutions of such use (which license may be transferred in whole or in part in connection with any sale or reorganization of the Business).

Section 6.10Business Non-Disclosure Provisions

. Promptly following the Closing Date, the Sellers shall provide to Buyer copies of all Contracts to which any Seller is a party that contain Business Non-Disclosure Provisions.

(a)any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations or warranties of Buyer contained in this Agreement;

(b)any breach or non-fulfillment of any covenant, agreement or obligation to be performed by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement; or

Section 7.04Certain Limitations

. The party making a claim under this Article VII is referred to as the “Indemnified Party”, and the party against whom such claims are asserted under this Article VII is referred to as the “Indemnifying Party”. The indemnification provided for in Section 7.02 and Section 7.03 shall be subject to the following limitations:

(a)The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for indemnification under Section 7.02(a) or Section 7.03(a), as the case may be, until the aggregate amount of all Losses in respect of indemnification under Section 7.02(a) or Section 7.03(a), as applicable, exceeds $500,000 (the “Deductible”), in which event the Indemnifying Party shall be required to pay or be liable for all such Losses in excess of the Deductible, provided that Losses arising from fraud or any inaccuracy in or breach of a Fundamental Representation shall not be subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 7.04(a).

Execution Version

(b)The aggregate amount of all Losses for which an Indemnifying Party shall be liable pursuant to Section 7.02(a) or Section 7.03(a), as the case may be, shall not exceed ten percent (10%) of the Base Price (the “Cap”), provided, that such limitation shall not apply with respect to fraud or any inaccuracy in or breach of a Fundamental Representation.

(c)Payments by an Indemnifying Party pursuant to Section 7.02 or Section 7.03 in respect of any Loss shall be limited to the amount of any liability or damage that remains after deducting therefrom any insurance proceeds actually received by the applicable Indemnified Party under insurance policies with respect to such Losses, in each case, net of costs of collection and any increase to premiums resulting from making any claim thereunder; provided that in no event shall an Indemnified Party be required to seek recovery under any insurance policy prior to making a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Article VII. In any case where an Indemnified Party recovers under insurance policies, any amount in respect of indemnified Losses for which such Indemnified Party also recovered from an Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Article VII, such Indemnified Party shall promptly pay to the applicable Indemnifying Party the amount so recovered under such insurance policies (after deducting therefrom the amount of all costs and expenses incurred in procuring such recovery, including any increase to premiums resulting therefrom), but not in excess of the amount previously recovered from the Indemnifying Party in respect of such indemnified Losses.

(d)Buyer shall have no right to indemnification under this Section 7.04 with respect to any Loss or alleged Loss that is included as a Current Liability on the Closing Working Capital Statement and taken into account in the determination of Closing Working Capital.

(e)In no event shall any Indemnifying Party be liable to any Indemnified Party for any punitive damages, other than any punitive damages that are paid to a third party.

(f)For purposes of this Article VII, any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty shall be determined without regard to any materiality, Material Adverse Effect or other similar qualification contained in or otherwise applicable to such representation or warranty.

Section 7.05Indemnification Procedures.

(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 obligated to provide indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure.

Execution Version

Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Third Party Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in, or, by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party within 30 days of becoming aware of the Third Party Claim, to assume the defense of any Third Party Claim at the Indemnifying Party’s expense and by the Indemnifying Party’s own counsel, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in good faith in such defense; provided that if the Indemnifying Party is a Seller, such Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to defend or direct the defense of any such Third Party Claim that (i) is asserted directly by or on behalf of a Person that is a supplier or customer of the business, (ii) seeks an injunction or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party, (iii) relates to or arises in connection with any criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation, (iv) in connection with which the Indemnified Party (upon advice of counsel) reasonably concludes that there may be one or more legal defenses available to an Indemnified Party that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Party, (v) in connection with which the Indemnified Party (upon the advice of counsel) reasonably concludes that there exists a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party, or (vi) is subject to the limitations set forth in Section 7.04(b) and asserts an amount of Losses which, when taken together with all amounts paid for resolved indemnification claims that are subject to the limitations set forth in Section 7.04(b), exceeds the Cap. During such 30 day period, the Indemnified Party may make such filings, including motions for continuance (and answers if a motion for continuance has not been granted), as may be necessary to preserve the parties’ positions and rights with respect to such Third Party Claim. In the event that the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, subject to Section 7.05(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, at its own cost and expense, to participate in the defense of any Third Party Claim with counsel selected by it subject to the Indemnifying Party’s right to control the defense thereof. 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 fails to diligently prosecute the defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may, subject to Section 7.05(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. Each 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 (subject to the provisions of Section 6.02) records relating to such Third Party Claim and furnishing, without expense (other than reimbursement of actual out-of-pocket expenses) to the defending party, management employees of the non-defending party as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of such Third Party Claim.

(b)Settlement of Third Party Claims. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into settlement of any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not

Execution Version

be unreasonably withheld or delayed), except as provided in this Section 7.05(b). If a firm offer is made to settle a Third Party Claim (i) without leading to liability or the creation of a financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party, (ii) that does not include any statement as to or an admission of fact, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Party, (iii) that does not involve, in any manner, any injunctive relief against any Indemnified Party and could not materially and adversely affect the Indemnified Party and (iv) that provides, in customary form, for the unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all liabilities and obligations in connection with such Third Party Claim, and the Indemnifying Party desires to accept and agree to such offer, the Indemnifying Party shall give written notice to that effect to the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer within thirty days after its receipt of such notice, the Indemnified Party may continue to contest or defend such Third Party Claim and in such event, the maximum liability of the Indemnifying Party as to such Third Party Claim shall not exceed the amount of such settlement offer. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer and also fails to assume defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may settle the Third Party Claim upon the terms set forth in such firm offer to settle such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnified Party has assumed the defense pursuant to Section 7.05(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 claim by an Indemnified Party on account of a Loss which does not result from a Third Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”) shall be asserted by the Indemnified Party giving the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Direct Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have 30 days after its receipt of such notice to respond in writing to such Direct Claim. During such 30-day period, the Indemnified Party shall allow the Indemnifying Party and its professional advisors to investigate the matter or circumstance alleged to give rise to the Direct Claim, and whether and to what extent any amount is payable in respect of the Direct Claim and the Indemnified Party shall assist the Indemnifying Party’s investigation by giving such information and assistance (including access to the Indemnified Party’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 30-day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have agreed to such claim and its obligation to pay the Indemnified Party its Losses in respect thereof.

Section 7.06Payments; Indemnity Escrow Fund.

(a)Once a Loss is agreed to by the Indemnifying Party or finally adjudicated to be payable pursuant to this Article VII, the Indemnifying Party shall satisfy its

Execution Version

obligations within 5 Business Days of such final, non-appealable adjudication by wire transfer of immediately available funds.

(b)Any Losses payable to Buyer pursuant to this Article VII shall be satisfied: (i) from the Indemnity Escrow Fund; and (ii) to the extent the amount of Losses exceeds the amounts available to the Buyer in the Indemnity Escrow Fund, from Sellers.

Section 7.07Tax 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 Law.

Section 7.08Exclusive Remedies

. Subject to Section 2.06, Section 6.03 and Section 8.11, the parties acknowledge and agree that their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims (other than claims arising from fraud, intentional misrepresentation, criminal activity or willful misconduct) for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article VII. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted under Law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement it may have against the other parties hereto and their Affiliates and each of their respective Representatives arising under or based upon any Law, except pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article VII. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Section 7.08 shall limit any Person’s right to seek and obtain any equitable relief to which any Person shall be entitled or to seek any remedy with respect to any claim based on fraud, intentional misrepresentation, criminal activity or willful misconduct.

ARTICLE VIII
