-21-

was prepared. FPH shall cooperate with and assist Principal and his Representatives in connection with the review of such materials, including by making available New Hearthstone’s and its employees, accountants and other personnel to the extent reasonably requested. The rights of the HS Parties under this Agreement shall not be prejudiced by the failure of FPH to comply with this Section 2.4(c) and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the time period for which the Principal is required to provide the Notice of Objection shall be automatically extended by the number of days FPH fails to provide the information to be provided in accordance with this Section 2.4(c) after written notice is provided by Principal to FPH requesting such information.

(d) Notice of Objection. If Principal has any objection to the Proposed Final Closing Statement, or in either case any of the amounts included in the calculation of the final Adjusted Agreed Value, the final Co-Investment Adjustment, the final Working Capital Adjustment, the final Net Receipts, he shall deliver a written statement (a “Notice of Objection”) to FPH setting forth in reasonable detail the particulars of such disagreement (including the specific items in the Proposed Final Closing Statement that are in dispute and the nature and amount of any disagreement so identified) not later than thirty (30) days after his receipt of the Proposed Final Closing Statement (such thirty (30) day period, as extended pursuant to Section 2.4(c), the “Review Period”); provided, that Principal may only deliver one (1) Notice of Objection to FPH.

If Principal delivers a Notice of Objection to FPH within the Review Period, Principal and FPH shall work together in good faith to resolve in writing Principal’s objections within the fifteen (15) day period following the delivery of the Notice of Objection.

(e) Selection of Accountant.

Principal and FPH shall execute any agreement reasonably required by the Accountant for its engagement hereunder.

(f) Submission of Disputed Items. Each of FPH and Principal shall, promptly (but in any event within ten (10) Business Days) following the formal engagement of the Accountant, provide the Accountant (copying the other Party upon submission) with a single written submission setting forth its respective calculations of and assertions regarding all Disputed Items, and, upon receipt thereof, each of FPH and Principal shall be entitled (no later than five (5) Business Days following receipt of the other Party’s initial submission) to submit to the Accountant a single written response to such other Party’s initial submission setting forth such Party’s objections or rebuttals to the calculations and/or assertions set forth in such initial submission (which responses the first Party shall promptly distribute to the other applicable Party). There shall be no ex parte communications between Principal (or its Representatives) or FPH (or its Representatives), on the one hand, and the Accountant, on the other hand, relating to any Disputed Items, and unless requested by the Accountant in writing, no Party may present any additional information or arguments to the Accountant, either orally or in writing.

-22-

(g) Accountant’s Determination. The Accountant shall be instructed to render its determination with respect to all Disputed Items as soon as reasonably possible (which the Parties agree shall not be later than forty-five (45) days following the formal engagement of the Accountant). The Accountant shall act as an expert and not as an arbitrator to determine the Disputed Items based solely on the submissions and responses of the HS Parties, on the one hand, and FPH, on the other hand, without independent investigation and in accordance with the Accounting Principles, and, with respect to each Disputed Item the Accountant may only select a position presented by one of the two Parties (it may not reach a third result on any such item). In resolving any Disputed Items, the Accountant may not assign a value to any Disputed Item greater than the greatest value for such Disputed Item claimed by the HS Parties or FPH or less than the lowest value for such Disputed Item claimed by the HS Parties or FPH, in each case. The Parties agree that the determination of the Accountant with respect to any Disputed Item is not intended to permit the introduction of accounting methods, policies, principles, practices, procedures, classifications or estimation methodologies different from those described in the Accounting Principles. The determination of the Accountant with respect to the Disputed Items in accordance with this Section 2.4(g), and the resulting Adjusted Agreed Value, shall, absent Fraud or manifest error of the Accountant, be binding, final and non-appealable for purposes of this Agreement.

(h) Accountant’s Fees and Expenses. All fees and expenses related to the work, if any, to be performed by the Accountant will be allocated between FPH and the HS Parties in the same proportion that the aggregate amount of the Disputed Items so submitted to the Accountant that is unsuccessfully disputed (as finally determined by the Accountant) bears to the total amount of such Disputed Items so submitted. For the avoidance of doubt, the fees and disbursements of the Representatives of each Party incurred in connection with the preparation or review of the Proposed Final Closing Statement and any Notice of Objection as well as any submissions and responses to the Accountant, as applicable, shall be borne by such Party.

(i) Post-Closing Adjustment Payments - Adjusted Agreed Value, Co-Investment Adjustment and Working Capital Adjustment.

2.5 Withholding. The Parties and any other applicable withholding agent(s) will be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amount payable pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document (other than the LLC Agreement) such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld under any applicable provision of U.S. federal, state, local or non-U.S. Tax Law; provided, that the Parties will promptly (and in any event no later than three (3) days prior to the date on which such payment is made or, in the case of a change in applicable Law after the date of this Agreement that would require withholding from such amounts, as soon as practicable) notify the Party(ies) entitled to payment of any intention to so deduct and withhold and provide such Party(ies) the opportunity to provide any statement, form, or other documentation that would reduce or eliminate any such requirement to deduct and withhold. To the extent that amounts are so deducted and withheld, such deducted and withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents (other than the LLC Agreement) as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made. For the avoidance of doubt, any deduction or withholding under the LLC Agreement shall be governed by the terms of the LLC Agreement.

Subject to applicable Law, upon reasonable advance notice, the HS Parties shall, and shall cause each Professional Entity and any Subsidiary of any HS Party or Professional Entity to, afford FPH’s officers and other authorized representatives reasonable access, during normal business hours throughout the period prior to the Closing, to its employees, properties, books, Contracts and records and, during such period, Legacy HS shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, furnish promptly to FPH all information concerning its business, properties and personnel as FPH may reasonably request; provided, that no investigation pursuant to this Section 6.6 shall affect or be deemed to modify any Legacy HS representation; provided, further, that the foregoing shall not be construed as requiring any of the HS Parties to permit any inspection, or to disclose any information, that in the reasonable judgment of the Principal would result in the disclosure of any Trade Secrets of third parties or violate any obligation of an HS Party or a Professional Entity with respect to confidentiality, provided that the HS Parties shall have used commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the consent of such third party to such inspection or disclosure. All requests for information made pursuant to this Section 6.6 shall be directed to Persons designated by the Principal.

6.7 Publicity. No press or other public announcement, or public statement or comment in response to any inquiry, relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the terms hereof shall be issued or made by any Party without the joint approval of both FPH and Legacy HS; provided that a press release or other public announcement, regulatory filing, statement or comment made without such joint approval shall not be in violation of this Section 6.7 if it is made in order for the disclosing Party or any of its Affiliates to comply with applicable Laws or stock exchange rules and in the reasonable judgment of the Party making such release or announcement, based upon advice of outside counsel, prior review and joint approval, despite reasonable efforts to obtain the same, would prevent dissemination of such release or announcement in a sufficiently timely fashion to comply with such applicable Laws or rules; and provided further that in all instances prompt notice from one Party to the others shall be given with respect to any such release, announcement, statement or comment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, neither Party shall disclose any information regarding the Transaction, except as provided in this Section 6.7 or Section 6.8.

6.8 Confidentiality.

(a) The terms of the Confidentiality Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference, mutatis mutandis, and, notwithstanding anything contained in the Confidentiality Agreement to the contrary, shall continue in full force and effect until the Closing, at which time such Confidentiality Agreement shall terminate.

(b) From and following the Closing, each of the HS Parties, severally and not jointly, hereby agrees with FPH that such HS Party will not, and that such HS Party will cause its Affiliates, stockholders, partners, members, directors, officers, agents and representatives not to, directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of FPH, disclose or use any Confidential Information; provided, that the provisions of this Section 6.8 will not prohibit any retention of copies of records or disclosure (x) required by applicable Law so long as, to the extent practicable, reasonable prior notice is given of such disclosure and a reasonable opportunity is afforded to contest the same or (y) made in connection with the enforcement of any right or remedy relating to this Agreement or any Transaction Document. Each of the HS Parties, severally and not jointly, agrees that such HS Party will be responsible for any breach or violation of the provisions of this Section 6.8 by any of such HS Party’s Affiliates, stockholders, partners, members, directors, officers, agents or representatives.

6.9 Post-Closing Obligations to Transferred Employees.

(a) The Parties intend that there shall be continuity of employment with respect to the Legacy HS Employees as set forth below. Each Legacy HS Employee who is offered and timely accepts FPC Management’s offer of employment and commences employment with FPC Management shall be considered a “Transferred Employee.” No later than fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the contemplated Closing Date, the HS Parties shall provide FPH with an updated Employee Census reflecting any changes to the Legacy HS Employee population.

(b) If the Closing takes place prior to January 1, 2026, following the Closing Date, the Legacy HS Employees will remain employed by Legacy HS and provide services to FPC Management (which, in turn, will make the employees available to New Hearthstone) via secondment as reflected in the Legacy HS Secondment Agreement. Prior to the Hire Date, FPC Management shall make written offers of employment to each Legacy HS Employee, in each case the terms set forth in Section 6.9(b) of the FPH Disclosure Letter for that Legacy HS Employee (the “Employment Terms”), providing for employment with FPC Management commencing on the later of (i) the end of secondment arrangement on January 1, 2026 and (ii) the Closing Date (the later of (i) and (ii), the “Hire Date”); provided, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Key Employees identified on Section 6.9(b) of the FPH Disclosure Letter will enter into employment arrangements with FPC Management on the Execution Date that will be effective on the Hire Date.

-52-

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6.9, unless required by applicable Law, FPC Management shall not be required to make an offer of employment to any Inactive Employee, provided, that if any such Inactive Employee is able to re-commence active employment and presents himself or herself to Legacy HS for active employment, with or without restrictions, prior to the Hire Date, then FPC Management shall make such Inactive Employee a written offer of employment (commencing on the Hire Date) on the terms therefor as set forth in Section 6.9(b) of the FPH Disclosure Letter.

(d) For the avoidance of doubt, each Transferred Employee will remain on Legacy HS’ payroll and participate in the Benefit Plans through 11:59 PM (local time at the Transferred Employee’s principal employment location) on the day immediately prior to the Hire Date with respect to such Transferred Employee (the “Benefits Effective Time”). As of the Benefits Effective Time, (i) each such Transferred Employee shall cease to be entitled to receive or accrue any additional benefits under any such Benefit Plans with respect to services rendered or, subject to applicable Laws, compensation paid after the Benefits Effective Time, (ii) each applicable Transferred Employee’s active participation in each of the Benefit Plans shall terminate, and (iii) each Transferred Employee shall become eligible to commence participation in the benefits plan of FPH; provided, however, that Transferred Employees who are enrolled in the flexible spending plan at Legacy HS for the plan period that runs from June 1, 2025 through May 31, 2026 will not be eligible to participate in Five Point’s high-deductible/health spending account plan commencing until January 1, 2027.

(e) On the Hire Date, Legacy HS will make a cash payment to each Transferred Employee in an amount equal to the Transferred Employee’s accrued and unused vacation days and paid time off to which the Transferred Employee is entitled as of the Benefits Effective Time, less applicable withholding Taxes; provided, that New Hearthstone shall reimburse Legacy HS for or otherwise cover the cost of the aggregate vacation payments made to the Transferred Employees in an amount up to and not to exceed $340,000.

(f) FPH shall give each Transferred Employee full service credit for purposes of eligibility, seniority, vesting and benefit level and accrual, in each case under the employee benefit plans, employee arrangements, policies and programs (except for benefit accrual under any defined benefit pension plans, for purposes of qualifying for subsidized early retirement benefits and to the extent such service credit would result in a duplication of benefits or compensation available to such Transferred Employee for the same period of service and, for the avoidance of doubt, no service credit shall be granted for any purposes under any equity or equity-based plan or arrangement) maintained by FPH in which such Transferred Employee participates for such Transferred Employee’s service with the HS Parties or its Affiliates or predecessors to the same extent recognized by the HS Parties immediately prior to the Hire Date with respect to such Transferred Employee. With respect to any welfare benefit plans maintained by FPH for the benefit of any Transferred Employee after the Hire Date with respect to such Transferred Employee, subject to Section 6.9(d)(iii), FPH shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) waive any eligibility and participation requirements, pre-existing condition limitations, actively at work requirements, exclusions and service conditions, but only to the same extent previously met or waived under a comparable Benefit Plan, (ii) give effect, in determining any deductible and maximum out-of-pocket limitations, to amounts paid by such Transferred Employee with respect to a comparable Benefit Plan, and (iii) with respect to any medical plan, take commercially-reasonable efforts to waive any waiting period limitation or evidence of insurability requirement that would otherwise be applicable to Transferred Employees or their dependents following the Closing. Subject to any limitations or requirements imposed by Law, for the twelve (12) months immediately following the Hire Date, FPH shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and the FPC Management, provide to the Transferred Employees with compensation opportunities and employee benefits that are no less favorable than the Employment Terms.

-53-

(g) As of the Hire Date.

(i) Except as set forth in Section 6.9(e) with respect to vacation payments, New Hearthstone (directly or through its arrangement with FPC Management) shall assume all Liabilities related to the Transferred Employees that first accrue following the Hire Date (other than any Liabilities covered by clause (ii) of this Section 6.9).

(ii) The HS Parties and their Affiliates (other than New Hearthstone and its Subsidiaries) shall retain and bear all Liabilities related to the following:

(h) The HS Parties agree that, notwithstanding the terms of any restrictive covenant obligation between any member of the HS Parties and any Legacy HS Employee, such Legacy HS Employee shall be permitted to provide services to FPH and its Affiliates (including New Hearthstone and its Subsidiaries) following Closing and also in his or her capacity as a Transferred Employee following the Hire Date, and none of the HS Parties will seek to enforce the terms of any such restrictive covenant following the Hire Date with respect to such Transferred Employee’s services to FPH and its Affiliates (including New Hearthstone and its Subsidiaries). To the extent assignable under applicable Law, the HS Parties (or the applicable member thereof) hereby assign all restrictive covenant obligations of any Legacy HS Employee to FPH and its applicable Affiliates, and FPH and its Affiliates shall have the right, but not the obligation, to enforce such restrictive covenants (and, to the extent that any such restrictive covenants cannot be assigned under applicable Law, the HS Parties (or the applicable member thereof) hereby recognize FPH and its Affiliates as a third-party beneficiary with respect to any such restrictive covenant obligations).

-54-

(i) Nothing contained in this Agreement is intended to (1) be treated as an amendment of any particular Benefit Plan, (2) prevent FPC Management or any of its Affiliates from amending or terminating any of their benefit plans in accordance their terms, (3) prevent FPC Management or any of its Affiliates, after the Hire Date, from terminating the employment or service of any Transferred Employee or any Person, or (4) create any third-party beneficiary rights in any employee or other current or former service provider of the HS Parties, including any Legacy HS Employee, any beneficiary or dependent thereof, or any collective bargaining representative thereof, with respect to the compensation, terms and conditions of employment and/or benefits that may be provided to any Transferred Employee by FPC Management or under any benefit plan which FPC Management or any other Affiliate of FPH may maintain.

(j) FPH agrees that during the period commencing on Closing Date and ending on December 31, 2026, it will not, and will not permit FPC Management or New Hearthstone to, terminate the employment of any Key Employee without cause (to be determined in a manner consistent with the term “Cause” as used in the LLC Agreement with respect to Principal and taking into account that the Key Employee may be employed by Legacy HS and not by New Hearthstone or FPC Management for a portion of that period), in each case without the prior written consent of the HS Member Representative (as defined in the LLC Agreement).

(k) FPH shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, at any time prior to December 31, 2026, decrease the base salary, target bonus or bonus structure of any Key Employee payable by or on behalf of New Hearthstone to an amount below the compensation included in Section 6.9(b) of the FPH Disclosure Letter, or change the office location of any Key Employee.

6.10 Tax Matters.

(a) Transfer Taxes. Any transfer, excise, stamp, documentary, sales, use, registration, value-added, filing, recordation or other similar Taxes, fees and charges incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by Section 2.2 (collectively, “Transfer Taxes”) shall be paid and borne by the Porath Parties and Legacy HS.

(b) Tax Classification and Section 754 Elections. Each of New Hearthstone, the Professional Entities and their Subsidiaries is and has been since its formation treated as a partnership or disregarded entity for U.S. federal, and applicable state and local, income tax purposes. To the extent that New Hearthstone, any Professional Entity or any of their Subsidiaries is treated as a partnership and does not have a valid election under Section 754 of the Code in place as of the Closing Date, the Parties shall cause such entities to make a valid election under Section 754 of the Code for the taxable year that includes the Closing Date.

(c) Intended Tax Treatment. For U.S. federal (and applicable state and local) income Tax purposes, the Parties intend that,

(i) the contribution of the Transferred Assets by Legacy HS and MP Revocable Trust, as described in Section 2.2(a) of this Agreement shall be treated as a contribution of property in exchange for interests in New Hearthstone in a transaction described in Section 721(a) of the Code; and

-55-

(ii) the purchase by FPH Member of (1) the Legacy HS Units Sold and (2) the MP Revocable Trust Units Sold, all as described in Section 2.2(b) of this Agreement shall be treated as a purchase and sale of partnership interests governed by Sections 1001 and 741 of the Code.

(d) Purchase Price Allocation. As soon as practicable, but no later than ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, FPH shall deliver an illustrative schedule allocating the HS Purchase Price and the MP Purchase Price among the different asset classes of the Company under Section 1060 of the Code (including for purposes of Code Sections 743(b)) (the “Allocation Schedule”). For purposes of allocating amounts to “unrealized receivables” or “inventory items” as described in Section 751(a) of the Code (the “Hot Assets”), the Allocation Schedule shall be prepared in accordance with the Allocation Methodology. The HS Parties and FPH shall cooperate in good faith to agree upon the Allocation Schedule. To the extent any disagreements cannot be resolved within thirty (30) days following the delivery of the Allocation Schedule, the HS Parties and FPH shall refer the dispute to the Accountant in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.4, mutatis mutandis; provided that any determination by the Accountant shall be made in a manner that is consistent with the Allocation Methodology. The Parties each agree to file, or to cause Newco to file, IRS Form 8308 and all federal, state and local Tax Returns in accordance with the Allocation Schedule as ultimately agreed upon by the Parties or as determined by the Accountant (the “Final Allocation Schedule”); provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the Final Allocation Schedule shall in no way constrain FPH’s allocations for GAAP reporting purposes, which shall be determined by FPH in its sole discretion. The Parties agree to amend the Final Allocation Schedule, as necessary, to reflect any payments made pursuant to Section 2.4(i).

6.11 Insurance. FPH, New Hearthstone and Legacy HS shall implement the insurance coverage and allocate costs and expenses associated with such coverage as set forth on Section 6.11 of the FPH Disclosure Letter.

6.12 Lock-Up Period.

(a) If FPH elects to deliver any of the HS Purchase Price in the form of FPH Shares, then from the Execution Date through the third (3^rd) anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Lock-Up Period”), Legacy HS agrees, and each of Principal and each other HS Party agrees, that none of them will cause or permit Legacy HS, directly or indirectly, to (i) offer for sale, sell, contract to sell, pledge, or otherwise dispose of (or enter into any transaction or device which is designed to, or could be expected to, result in the disposition by any person at any time in the future of) any of said FPH Shares or (ii) enter into any put, swap or other derivatives transaction that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic benefits or risks of ownership of such FPH Shares, whether any such transaction described in clause (i) or (ii) above is to be settled by delivery of FPH Shares or other securities, in cash or otherwise, or (iii) publicly disclose the intention to do any of the foregoing.

(b) In addition, if (A) during the last 17 days of the Lock-Up Period, FPH issues an earnings release or material news, or a material event relating to FPH occurs, or (B) prior to the expiration of the Lock-Up Period, FPH announces that it will release earnings results during the 16-day period beginning on the last day of the Lock-Up Period, then the restrictions imposed by this Section 6.12 shall continue to apply until the expiration of the 18-day period beginning on the

-56-

issuance of the earnings release or the announcement of the material news or the occurrence of the material event, unless FPH waives such extension in writing. Legacy HS, Principal and each other HS Party further agrees that, prior to engaging in any transaction or taking any other action that is subject to the terms of this Section 6.12 during the period from the Execution Date to and including the 34^th day following the expiration of the Lock-Up Period, it will give written notice thereof to FPH and will not consummate such transaction or take any such action unless it has received confirmation from FPH that the Lock-Up Period (as such may have been extended pursuant to his paragraph) has expired.

6.13 Further Assurances. The Parties shall execute and deliver, or shall cause to be executed and delivered, such documents and other instruments and shall take, or shall cause to be taken, such further actions as may be reasonably required to carry out the provisions of this Agreement and give effect to the Transactions.

(b) FPH shall not have any liability pursuant to this ARTICLE IX in respect of any Losses of the type described in Section 9.3(a)(i) unless and until the aggregate amount of such Losses exceeds the Basket Amount, in which event FPH shall be liable for all such Losses, including the Basket Amount (i.e., back to dollar one); or (ii) that arise from any individual item, occurrence, circumstance, act or omission unless and until the amount of Losses resulting therefrom exceeds the Per Claim Amount, nor shall any Losses excluded pursuant to this clause (ii) be taken into account for purposes of determining whether the Basket Amount has been exceeded in respect of Claims made by the HS Indemnified Parties.

9.4 Indemnification Procedures.

(a) In order for an FPH Indemnified Party or an HS Indemnified Party (any of them, an “Indemnified Party”) to duly make a valid Claim with respect to any of the occurrences specified in Section 9.2 or Section 9.3, the Indemnified Party must (promptly, but in no event more than ten (10) Business Days following the first date following the Closing Date on which such Indemnified Party has knowledge of facts, matters or circumstances from which it is reasonably apparent that such an occurrence is likely to have occurred) provide written notice to Principal (for Claims made by FPH Indemnified Parties) or to FPH (for Claims made by HS Indemnified Parties) (the recipient of such notice, the “Indemnifying Party”), which notice shall set forth a description in reasonable detail of the occurrence(s) specified in Section 9.2 or Section 9.3 which the Indemnified Party alleges to have occurred, a description of the facts and circumstances giving rise to such occurrences, the estimated amount of Losses imposed, incurred, suffered or asserted in connection therewith or arising therefrom (to the extent then ascertainable), and a description of any other remedy sought in connection therewith, any relevant time constraints relating thereto and, to the extent practicable, any other material details pertaining thereto (a “Claim Notice”). The Indemnified Party shall cooperate with and provide to the Indemnifying Party such information under the Indemnified Party’s control as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request for the purposes of determining the validity of the allegations made in the Claim Notice and shall keep the Indemnifying Party reasonably and promptly informed of factual and procedural developments (including additional information which may come under the Indemnified Party’s control) in connection therewith. The Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall use reasonable best efforts to avoid production of Confidential Information (consistent with applicable Law) to third parties and to cause all communications among employees, counsel and others representing any party to a Third Party Claim to be made so as to preserve any applicable attorney-client or work product privileges.

(b) In the event the Claim Notice results from any Action asserted or threatened against the Indemnified Party by a third party (a “Third Party Claim”):

(i) The Indemnified Party shall provide the Claim Notice to the Indemnifying Party not later than the tenth (10^th) Business Day following the Indemnified Party’s receipt of the Third Party Claim, and in any event not later than the tenth (10^th) Business Day preceding the date by which an appearance is required to be made before a court, arbitrator or other tribunal or an answer or similar pleading is required to be filed in a litigation or other Proceeding; provided that the failure to timely provide a Claim Notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder except to the extent that such failure has a material prejudicial effect on the defense or resolution of the Third Party Claim.

(ii) During the period ending on the earlier of the thirtieth (30^th) calendar day following the Indemnifying Party’s receipt of the Claim Notice and the fifth (5^th) calendar day preceding the date on which an appearance is required to be made before a court, arbitrator or other tribunal or an answer or similar pleading is required to be filed in a litigation or other Proceeding, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to notify the Indemnified Party of its election to assume and control the defense of the Third Party Claim, unless the Claim Notice states that the Indemnified Party has determined in good

-63-

faith that (i) the Third Party Claim seeks an injunction or other equitable or non-monetary relief against the Indemnified Party (other than injunctive, equitable or non-monetary relief that is incidental to monetary damages as the primary relief sought), (ii) the Third Party Claim arises in connection with any criminal matter, or (iii) there is a reasonable probability that the Third Party Claim may adversely affect the Indemnified Party or its Affiliates other than as a result of monetary damages. If the Indemnified Party should elect to exercise such right, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in, but not control, the defense or settlement of such Claim or demand, at its sole cost and expense.

-64-

(iii) The Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall cooperate in order to ensure the proper and adequate investigation and defense of all Third Party Claims, including by providing reasonable access to each other’s relevant business records, documents and employees, for purposes of investigation, document production, testimony and otherwise. The Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall keep each other fully and promptly informed with respect to the status of all Third Party Claims and shall deliver to each other copies of all material written notices and documents (including court papers) received by the other that relate to any Third Party Claims. The Person controlling the defense of a Third Party Claim shall in good faith allow the Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party, as the case may be, to make comments to the materials filed or submitted in such defense and shall consider such comments in good faith.

-65-

(iv) All reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, costs and expenses of attorneys, accountants and other professionals actually incurred or suffered by the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party in connection with investigating and defending, and cooperating in the investigation and defense of, the Third Party Claim (“Third Party Claim Expenses”) shall be paid as follows:

9.5 Losses and Recoveries.

(a) Limitation on Damages. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, except to the extent awarded by a court of competent jurisdiction to a third party pursuant to a Third Party Claim, no Person shall be liable under this ARTICLE IX for any punitive, special, incidental, exemplary or indirect damages, including lost profits or business interruption damages, regardless of the form of action, whether in contract, tort, strict liability or otherwise, and whether or not such damages were foreseen or unforeseen.

(b) Reimbursement. If an Indemnified Party recovers an amount from a third party in respect of a Loss after all or a portion of such Loss has been paid by an Indemnifying Party pursuant to this ARTICLE IX, the Indemnified Party shall promptly remit to the Indemnifying Party the excess (if any) of (i) the amount paid by the Indemnifying Party in respect of such Loss, plus the amount received from the third party in respect thereof, less (ii) the full amount of the Loss.

-66-

(c) No Circular Recovery. The HS Parties (including any officer or director of Legacy HS) shall not have any right of contribution, indemnification or right of advancement from New Hearthstone or FPH with respect to any Loss claimed by an Indemnified Party. The HS Parties shall not make any claim for monetary damages or indemnification against either FPH or New Hearthstone or any of their respective Subsidiaries with respect to any claim properly brought by an FPH Indemnified Party under this ARTICLE IX.

(d) Effect of Waiver of Condition. No Party’s right to indemnification pursuant to this ARTICLE IX shall be adversely affected by its waiver of a condition to the Closing set forth in ARTICLE VII unless such Party makes clear by the terms of its waiver that it is foreclosing its right to indemnification with respect to all Losses resulting from the facts and circumstances that are the subject of the waiver.

9.6 Payments.

(a) The Indemnifying Party shall pay to the Indemnified Party the amount of any Loss for which it is liable hereunder, in immediately available funds, to an account specified by the Indemnified Party no later than ten (10) Business Days following any Final Determination of the Claims set forth in the related Claim Notice. If any such amount is not paid when due, the Indemnifying Party shall also pay interest on the unpaid amount at a rate of 18% per annum, compounded monthly, from the date such payment is due until the date of repayment. A “Final Determination” shall exist when (a) the parties to the dispute have reached an agreement in writing, (b) a court of competent jurisdiction shall have entered a final and non-appealable order or judgment or (c) an arbitration or like panel shall have rendered a final non-appealable determination with respect to disputes the parties have agreed to submit thereto.

(b) Except as otherwise required by Law, all payments made by an Indemnifying Party to an Indemnified Party in respect of any Claim pursuant to Section 9.2 or 9.3 hereof shall be treated as adjustments to the Adjusted Agreed Value for Tax purposes.

9.7 Exclusive Remedies and No Rights Against Nonparties.

(a) From and after Closing, no Party shall assert against any other Party any Claim, cause of action, right or remedy, or any Action, relating to this Agreement, the Transactions or any document or instrument delivered in connection herewith or therewith, other than (i) Claims pursuant to this ARTICLE IX, (ii) Claims that a Party committed Fraud in making any representation or warranty contained in ARTICLE III or ARTICLE V,^,(iii) Claims pursuant to Section 10.4 with respect to covenants to be performed at or following the Closing. Following the Closing, the Claims and remedies specified in clauses (i) through (iii) of the previous sentence shall constitute the Parties’ sole and exclusive rights and remedies available to the Indemnified Parties for any and all Losses or other Claims relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the Transactions and any document or instrument delivered in connection herewith or therewith, and shall supersede all other rights and remedies available at law or in equity (including any right of rescission). Accordingly, effective as of the Closing, each Party hereby irrevocably waives and discharges, and releases each other Party, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, from, all other Claims, causes of action and Actions relating thereto.

-67-

(b) In addition to Section 9.7(a), this Agreement may only be enforced against, and any Action, right or remedy that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or the Transactions, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement, may only be made against the Persons that are expressly identified as Parties in their capacities as parties to this Agreement, and no Party shall at any time assert against any Person (other than a Party) which is a director, officer, employee, shareholder, general or limited partner, member, manager, agent or Affiliate or Representative of another Party (each, a “Nonparty”), any Claim, cause of action, right or remedy, or any Action, relating to this Agreement, any other Transaction Document, the Transactions or any document or instrument delivered in connection herewith or therewith. Each Party hereby waives and discharges any such Claim, cause of action, right, remedy and Action, and releases (and agrees to execute and deliver any instrument necessary to effectuate the release of) each Nonparty therefrom. The provisions of this Section 9.7(b) are for the benefit of and shall be enforceable by each Nonparty, which is an intended third-party beneficiary of this Section 9.7(b) and Section 6.13 in connection herewith.

9.8 Specific Performance. The Parties acknowledge and agree that any breach of this Agreement would give rise to irreparable harm for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy. The Parties accordingly agree that, in addition to any other rights or remedies it may have at Law or in equity, the other party shall be entitled to (a) enforce the terms of this Agreement by decree of specific performance without the necessity of proving the inadequacy of monetary damages as a remedy and (b) injunctive relief against any breach or threatened breach of this Agreement. Neither Party will contest an action by the other Party for injunctive relief or an Order of specific performance on the basis that there is an adequate remedy at Law, or that an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason, at Law or in equity. The Parties agree to not seek and agree to waive any requirement for the securing or posting of a bond in connection with a Party seeking or obtaining any relief pursuant to this Section 9.8.

In the event that any signature is delivered by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file or any electronic signature complying with the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000, e.g., www.docusign.com, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the Party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such “.pdf” signature page were an original thereof.

(a) This Agreement, and all Actions (whether in contract, tort or statute) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement (including any Claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of or related to any representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Agreement or as an inducement to enter into this Agreement), shall be governed by, and enforced in accordance with, the Laws of the State of Delaware, including its statutes of limitations, without giving effect to applicable principles of conflicts of Law to the extent that the application of the Laws of another jurisdiction (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction would be required thereby).

(b) Each Party agrees that it shall bring any Action in respect of any Action based upon, arising out of or relating to this Agreement, any other Transaction Document (other than the LLC Agreement, which shall be governed according to the provisions therein) or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement exclusively in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, or (and only if) such court finds it lacks subject matter jurisdiction, the Superior Court of the State of Delaware (Complex Commercial Division); provided, that if subject matter jurisdiction over the matter that is the subject of the Action is vested exclusively in the United States federal courts, such Action shall be heard in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware (such courts, the “Chosen Courts”) and solely in connection with Actions arising under or relating to this Agreement (i) irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Chosen Courts, (ii) waives any objection to the laying of venue in any such Action in the Chosen Courts, (iii) waives any objection that the Chosen Courts are an inconvenient forum or do not have jurisdiction over any Party, (iv) agrees that mailing of process or other papers in connection with any such Action in the manner provided in Section 10.5 or in such other manner as may be permitted by Law shall be valid and sufficient service thereof and (v) unless otherwise required by applicable Law (e.g., due to the Chosen Court not having the requisite jurisdiction), agrees that all Claims with respect to any such Action or Proceeding shall be heard and determined in the Chosen Courts and agrees not to commence any Action or Proceeding relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (whether based on contract, tort or other theory) except in the Chosen Courts.

10.6 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including any exhibits or schedules hereto) and the Transaction Documents contain the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, with respect to such matters.

10.7 No Third-Party Beneficiaries.

-71-

10.8 Severability. The provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed severable and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof. If any provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, or the application of such provision, covenant or restriction to any Person or any circumstance, is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable, (a) a suitable and equitable provision shall be substituted therefor in order to carry out, so far as may be valid and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid or unenforceable provision and (b) the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision, covenant or restriction to other Persons or circumstances shall not be affected by such invalidity or unenforceability, nor shall such invalidity or unenforceability affect the validity or enforceability of such provision, or the application of such provision, in any other jurisdiction and the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated.

10.9 Interpretation; Construction.

(a) The table of contents and headings herein are for convenience of reference only, do not constitute part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or otherwise affect any of the provisions hereof. Where a reference in this Agreement is made to an Annex, Exhibit, Section or Schedule, such reference shall be to an Annex, Exhibit, Section or Schedule to this Agreement unless otherwise indicated.

(b) If a term is defined as one part of speech (such as a noun), it shall have a corresponding meaning when used as another part of speech (such as a verb). The terms defined in the singular have a comparable meaning when used in the plural and vice versa. The rule known as the ejusdem generis rule shall not apply, and accordingly, general words introduced by the word “other” shall not be given a restrictive meaning by reason of the fact that they are preceded by words indicating a particular class of acts, matters or things. Unless the context of this Agreement clearly requires otherwise, words importing the masculine gender shall include the feminine and neutral genders and vice versa. Whenever the words “include”, “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” The words “hereof,” “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import, when used in this Agreement, shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement. The word “or” shall not be exclusive. Currency amounts referenced herein are in U.S. Dollars. Any capitalized term used in any Schedule or Exhibit but not otherwise defined therein shall have the meaning given to them as set forth in this Agreement. All accounting terms used herein and not expressly defined herein shall have the meanings given to them under GAAP. References to “written” or “in writing” include documents in electronic form or transmission by email. A reference to any Person includes such Person’s heirs, executors, personal representatives, administrators, successors and permitted assigns (provided, however, that this sentence is not intended to authorize any assignment or transfer not otherwise permitted by this Agreement). A reference to a Person in a particular capacity or capacities shall exclude such Person in any other capacity.

-72-

(c) Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all references in this Agreement to any Law include the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, in each case as amended, re-enacted, consolidated or replaced from time to time and in the case of any such amendment, re-enactment, consolidation or replacement, reference herein to a particular provision shall be read as referring to such amended, re-enacted, consolidated or replaced provision and shall also include, unless the context otherwise requires, all applicable guidelines, bulletins or policies made in connection therewith, provided, that for purposes of any representations and warranties contained in this Agreement that are made as of a specific date (including the Execution Date, the Closing Date or the Closing), references to any Law shall be deemed to refer to such Law as amended as of such date. Any agreement or instrument referred to herein means such agreement or instrument as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented, including by waiver or consent and all attachments thereto and instruments incorporated therein.

(d) Whenever this Agreement refers to a number of days, such number shall refer to calendar days unless Business Days are specified. Whenever any action must be taken hereunder on or by a day that is not a Business Day, then such action may be validly taken on or by the next day that is a Business Day.

(e) Each representation, warranty, covenant and condition herein shall be given full, separate and independent effect. The provisions hereof are cumulative. A more specific provision shall limit the applicability of any other, more general, provision.

(f) The Parties drafted this Agreement jointly through the exchange of drafts hereof, so no presumption or burden of proof favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement.

(g) Neither the specification of any dollar amount in any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement nor the inclusion of any specific item in any Schedule is intended to imply that such amount, or higher or lower amounts, or the item so included or other items, are or are not material, and no Party shall use the fact of setting forth of any such amount or the inclusion of any such item in any dispute or controversy between the Parties as to whether any obligation, item or matter not described herein or included in any Schedule is or is not material for purposes of this Agreement. Neither the specification of any item or matter in any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement nor the inclusion of any specific item in any Schedule is intended to imply that such item or matter, or other items or matters, are or are not in the Ordinary Course of Business, and no Party shall use the fact of the setting forth or the inclusion of any specific item or matter in any dispute or controversy between the Parties as to whether any obligation, item or matter not described herein or included in any Schedule is or is not in the Ordinary Course of Business for purposes of this Agreement.

(h) Legacy HS or FPH have or may have set forth information in the HS Disclosure Letter or the FPH Disclosure Letter, as applicable, in a Section of such HS Disclosure Letter or FPH Disclosure Letter, as applicable, that corresponds to the Section of this Agreement to which it relates. The fact that any item of information is disclosed in any section or subsection of the HS Disclosure Letter or the FPH Disclosure Letter, as applicable, shall be deemed disclosure with respect to any other section or subsection to which the relevance of such item is apparent based on a plain reading of such disclosure.

10.10 Conflicts Waiver; Non-Assertion of Attorney-Client Privilege.

(a) Conflicts of Interest. The HS Parties acknowledge that Sullivan & Cromwell LLP (“FPH Counsel”) has represented, and continues to represent, FPH in connection with the negotiation, execution and consummation of this Agreement and the Transactions. The HS Parties further acknowledge and agree that, following the Closing, FPH Counsel may also represent New Hearthstone in future transactions, if so approved by New Hearthstone. Each HS Party hereby waives all potential conflicts of interest that might result from FPH Counsel’s representation of FPH hereunder to the extent relevant to FPH Counsel’s representation of New Hearthstone on future matters, if any, for which FPH Counsel is retained as counsel by New Hearthstone. FPH acknowledges that Alston & Bird LLP (“HS Counsel”) has represented, and continues to represent, the HS Parties in connection with the negotiation, execution and consummation of this Agreement and the Transactions. FPH further acknowledges and agrees that, following the Closing, HS Counsel may also represent Principal or Legacy HS and its Affiliates in future transactions. FPH hereby waives all potential conflicts of interest that might result from HS Counsel’s representation of Principal or Legacy HS and its Affiliates to the extent relevant to HS Counsel’s representation of Principal or Legacy HS and its Affiliates on future matters, if any. FPH further agrees, on behalf of itself, and, after the Closing, on behalf of New Hearthstone and its Subsidiaries, that all privileged communications in any form or format whatsoever between or among HS Counsel and any HS Party or its Affiliates that relate to the negotiation, documentation and consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any dispute arising under this Agreement (collectively, the “Privileged Communications”) shall be deemed to be retained and owned by the applicable HS Party and shall not pass to (by operation of law or otherwise) or be claimed by FPH, New Hearthstone or any of its Subsidiaries. All Privileged Communications shall remain privileged after the Closing and the privilege and the expectation of client confidence relating thereto shall belong solely to the applicable HS Party, shall be controlled by such HS Party on behalf of its direct and indirect equity holders and shall not pass to or be claimed by FPH, New Hearthstone or any of its Subsidiaries.

(b) The Parties hereby acknowledge that they have had the opportunity to discuss and obtain adequate information concerning the significance and material risks of, and reasonable available alternatives to, the waivers, permissions and other provisions of this Agreement, including the opportunity to consult with counsel other than FPH Counsel or HS Counsel, as applicable. This Section 10.10 shall be irrevocable, and no term of this Section 10.10 may be amended, waived or modified, without the prior written consent of FPH and FPH Counsel.

10.11 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns. No HS Party may assign any of its rights or delegate any of its obligations under this Agreement, by operation of Law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of FPH, and FPH may not assign any of its rights or delegate any of its obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Principal (provided, however, that such consent will not be required for any assignment or delegation made by FPH to any Affiliate of FPH).

10.12 Fulfillment of Obligations. Any obligation of any Party to any other Party under this Agreement, or any Party under any of the Transaction Documents, which obligation is performed, satisfied or fulfilled completely by an Affiliate or Subsidiary of such Party, shall be deemed to have been performed, satisfied or fulfilled by such Party.
