The Initial Purchase Price shall be payable at the Closing as described in Section 3.2 below and shall be subject to adjustment as provided in Sections 2.6 (such adjusted Initial Purchase Price being the “Final Purchase Price”).

f. Purchase Price Adjustment.

At least five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Sellers shall deliver to the Purchasers a certificate (the “Initial Closing Date Certificate”), certified and executed by the President of each of the Sellers, setting forth Sellers’ good faith estimates of (i) the Closing Indebtedness and (ii) the Sellers’ good faith estimate of Working Capital as of the Closing Date

(the “Estimated Working Capital”), along with a copy of each Seller’s good faith estimated unaudited consolidated balance sheet as of the Closing Date (the “Closing Date Balance Sheet”) upon which such calculations are based. The computation of (A) Estimated Working Capital set forth in the Initial Closing Date Certificate and the Closing Date Balance Sheet shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP on a basis consistent with Annex I hereto.

ii.

If within two (2) Business Days following receipt of the Initial Closing Date Certificate, (i) the Purchasers have not given the Sellers’ notice of its objection to the Estimated Working Capital calculation or the Closing Date Balance Sheet, the Initial Purchase Price shall be increased or decreased, as applicable, on a dollar-for-dollar basis by an amount equal to the Estimated Working Capital Adjustment as determined by the Sellers. If the Purchasers give any such notice of objection, the Sellers and the Purchasers will work together diligently and in good faith to resolve the issues in dispute. If all disputed issues are resolved, the Estimated Working Capital as agreed upon by the Purchasers and the Sellers shall be used to complete the Estimated Working Capital Adjustment.

iii.

Not later than sixty (60) calendar days after the Closing Date, the Purchasers shall cause to be delivered to the Sellers a statement (the “Closing Date Statement”) setting forth the Purchasers’ calculation of the Final Purchase Price (including the Purchasers’ calculation of the components thereof contained in Section 2.5 as of the Closing Date) together with (A) the balance sheet of the Sellers prepared as of the Closing Date (but prior to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) from which such Closing Date Statement was derived (the “Final Closing Date Balance Sheet”). The calculation of Working Capital set forth in the Closing Date Statement shall be determined in accordance with GAAP on a basis consistent with Annex I.

iv.

The Purchasers shall permit the Sellers and their representatives reasonable and timely access to the books and records, accountant’s work papers, personnel, and facilities of the Purchasers to the extent reasonably necessary to review the Closing Date Statement, the calculation of the Final Purchase Price and the Final Closing Date Balance Sheet and for the purpose of resolving any disputes with respect thereto.

Within fifteen (15) calendar days after their receipt of the Closing Date Statement and Final Closing Date Balance Sheet, the Sellers may either inform the Purchasers in writing that the Closing Date Statement is acceptable or object thereto in writing, setting forth each of its objections (the “Sellers Objections”). Any items included in the Closing Date Statement which are not disputed by the Sellers in the Sellers Objections (other than items necessary to offset an issue raised in the Sellers Objections) shall be deemed agreed to by the Sellers. If the Sellers deliver the Sellers Objections and the parties do not resolve all such Sellers Objections on a mutually agreeable basis within ten (10) Business Days after the Purchasers’ receipt of the Sellers Objections, any Sellers Objections as to which the Purchasers and the Sellers cannot agree upon may be submitted by either the Purchasers or the Sellers to the Dallas, Texas office of Hein & Associates LLP (the “Designated Accounting Firm”) for resolution as provided herein; provided, however, if such accounting firm is unable or unwilling to serve as the Designated Accounting Firm, then the disputed Sellers Objections shall be submitted to an accounting firm that is mutually acceptable to the Sellers and the Purchasers. If the Sellers and the Purchasers are unable to agree on a mutually acceptable Designated Accounting Firm, then the Designated

Accounting Firm shall be an independent accounting firm of regionally or nationally recognized reputation which shall be selected by lot after each of the Sellers and the Purchasers have each proposed two (2) firms and excluded one (1) firm proposed by the other. Subject to Section 2.6(f), the Designated Accounting Firm shall have the power, authority and duty to resolve any outstanding Sellers Objections and the decision of the Designated Accounting Firm shall be final and binding upon the parties. Upon the agreement of the parties or the decision of the Designated Accounting Firm, the Closing Date Statement, as adjusted in accordance with this Section 2.6, if necessary, shall be final and conclusive with respect to the calculation of the Final Purchase Price, including, without limitation, the calculation of Working Capital as of the Closing Date. If the Seller fails to deliver any Sellers Objections to the Purchasers within the first fifteen (15)-day period referred to above, the Closing Date Statement delivered by the Purchasers and the calculations set forth therein shall be final and binding on the parties.

vi.

In resolving any disputed item, the Designated Accounting Firm (i) shall be bound by the provisions of this Section 2.6, (ii) may not assign a value to any item greater than the highest value claimed for such item or less than the lowest value for such item claimed by either the Purchasers or the Sellers, (iii) shall restrict its decision to such items included in the Sellers Objections which are then in dispute, (iv) may review only the written presentations of the Purchasers and the Sellers in resolving any matter which is in dispute and (v) shall render its decision in writing within thirty (30) calendar days after the disputed items have been submitted to it. Upon the resolution of all Sellers Objections, the Final Closing Date Balance Sheet, Working Capital as of the Closing Date and the determination of the Final Purchase Price shall be revised to reflect the resolution. If the Sellers make any Sellers Objections, the fees, costs and expenses of the Designated Accounting Firm shall be paid (i) by the Sellers if the Sellers Objections are resolved in favor of the Purchasers, or (ii) by the Purchasers if the Sellers Objections are resolved in favor of the Sellers. If the Sellers Objections are resolved part in favor of the Sellers and part in favor of the Purchasers, such fees, costs and expenses shall be shared by the Purchasers and the Sellers in inverse proportion to the aggregate amount of the Sellers Objections resolved in favor of the Sellers compared to the aggregate amount of the Sellers Objections resolved in favor of the Purchasers.

vii.

If the Final Purchase Price as finally determined in accordance with this Section 2.6 exceeds the Initial Purchase Price, the Purchasers shall pay the amount of the difference in cash to the Sellers within five (5) Business Days after such final determination. If the Final Purchase Price as finally determined in accordance with this Section 2.6 is less than the Initial Purchase Price, the Sellers shall deliver an amount of the difference in cash to the Purchasers within five (5) Business Days after such final determination; provided, however, that by notice to the other party, either party may elect to have all or any portion of any amount to which the Purchasers may be entitled to receive under this Section 2.6(g) released from the Escrow Fund, in which event the Purchasers and the Sellers shall instruct the Escrow Agent to release such amount from the Escrow Fund to the Purchasers.

g. Allocation of Purchase Price. The Purchasers and the Sellers agree that the Final Purchase Price and the amount of Assumed Liabilities that are liabilities for income tax purposes shall be allocated for federal income tax purposes among the Purchased Assets as shall be determined by the parties in

accordance with this Agreement (the “Allocation Schedule”). The Allocation Schedule shall be prepared in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations. The amount of the Purchase Price allocated to the fixed assets will be the tax book value of such assets as of the Closing. The Purchasers and the Sellers will jointly prepare the Allocation Schedule at or prior to Closing. If the Initial Purchase Price differs from the Final Purchase Price, then the difference will be allocated proportionally among the categories set forth in the Allocation Schedule other than the amount allocated to the fixed assets, which will not change. Unless otherwise required by applicable Law, the Purchasers and the Sellers agree to act, and cause their respective Affiliates to act, in accordance with the computations and allocations contained in the Allocation Schedule in any relevant Tax Returns or similar filings (including any forms or reports required to be filed pursuant to Section 1060 of the Code (the “1060 Forms”)), to cooperate in the preparation of any 1060 Forms, to file such 1060 Forms in the manner required by applicable Law and to not take any position inconsistent with such Allocation Schedule upon examination of any Tax Returns, in any litigation or otherwise.

h. Allocation of Purchased Assets Among Purchasers. Notwithstanding anything to contrary in Article II hereof, the Purchased Assets (and the Assumed Liabilities related to such Purchased Assets) shall be allocated to the Purchasers such that any and all accounts receivable, inventory, rolling stock identified on Schedule 2.8 hereto as prepared by Purchasers, frac tanks and the Permits to Inject Fluid into a Reservoir Productive of Oil and Gas or related permits issued by the Railroad Commission of Texas shall be allocated and held by Frontier Tank, or with respect to such Permits, an Affiliate designated by Frontier Tank, and all other Purchased Assets (and Assumed Liabilities related to such Purchased Assets), including but not limited to all disposal wells and rights thereto, Tangible Personal Property and fixed assets, Property, Seller IP and Transferred Contracts, shall be allocated and held by Frontier Disposal.

POST-CLOSING COVENANTS

a. Confidentiality; Covenant Not to Compete.

i. Each of the Sellers and the Shareholders acknowledge that such Seller or Shareholder has or may have access to Confidential Information (as defined below) and that such Confidential Information does and will constitute valuable, special and unique property of the Purchasers. Each of the Sellers and the Shareholders agree that (subject to the Closing) from and after the Closing Date for a period of five (5) years (such five (5) year period is hereinafter referred to as the “Restricted Period”), such Seller or Shareholder will not, directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of the Purchasers, disclose, reveal, divulge or communicate to any Person other than authorized officers, directors and employees of the Purchasers or their Subsidiaries, or use or otherwise exploit for such Seller’s or Shareholder’s own benefit or for the benefit of anyone other than the Purchasers or their Subsidiaries, any Confidential Information; provided, however, that such Restricted Period will be extended by and for the duration of any period of time during which such Seller or Shareholder is in violation of any provision of this Section 8.1(a). Each Seller and Shareholder shall not have any obligation to keep confidential any Confidential Information if and to the extent disclosure thereof is specifically required by Law; provided, however, that in the event disclosure is required by applicable Law, such Seller or Shareholder shall, to the extent reasonably possible, provide the Purchasers with prompt notice of such requirement prior to making any disclosure so that the Purchasers may seek an appropriate protective order. If a protective order or other remedy is not available, or if the other party waives compliance with the provisions of this Section 8.1(a), the party receiving the

request for disclosure or its representatives, as the case may be, may disclose to the Person requiring disclosure only that portion of the Confidential Information which such party is legally required to disclose. For purposes of this Section 8.1, “Confidential Information” shall mean any confidential information with respect to the Business, including, without limitation, methods of operation, customers, customer lists, products and services, proposed products and services, former products and services, proposed, pending or completed acquisitions of any company, division, product line or other business unit, prices, fees, costs, plans, designs, technology, inventions, trade secrets, know-how, software, marketing methods, policies, plans, personnel, suppliers, markets or other specialized information or proprietary matters. The term “Confidential Information” does not include, and there shall be no obligation hereunder with respect to, information that (i) is generally available to the public on the date of this Agreement, or (ii) becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by any Seller or Shareholder not otherwise permissible thereunder.

ii. Each of the Sellers and the Shareholders hereby agree that (subject to the Closing), during the Restricted Period, such Seller or Shareholder will not, directly or indirectly (including without limitation through Subsidiaries, Affiliates or Associates or by contract), as a partner, joint venturer, employer, employee, consultant, shareholder, principal, manager, agent or otherwise, own, manage, operate, finance, join, control, participate or lend money or such Seller’s or Shareholder’s reputation to any business, whether in corporate, limited liability company or partnership form or otherwise, which in any way engages in any business that competes with the Business as carried on or proposed to be carried on at the Closing Date in the State of Texas; provided, however, that (i) nothing herein shall be construed to prevent such Seller or Shareholder from holding as a passive investment not more than one percent (1%) of the shares in any company whose shares are quoted on any stock exchange or inter-dealer quotation system, (ii) the foregoing provisions shall not in any way limit or mitigate such Seller’s or Shareholder’s confidentiality obligations herein and (iii) such Restricted Period will be extended by and for the duration of any period of time during which such Seller or Shareholder is in violation of any provision of this Section 8.1(b).

iii. Each of the Sellers and the Shareholders hereby agree that (subject to the Closing), during the Restricted Period, such Seller or Shareholder will not, directly or indirectly (including without limitation through Subsidiaries, Affiliates or Associates or by contract), as a partner, joint venturer, employer, employee, consultant, shareholder, principal, manager, agent or otherwise, (i) induce or attempt to induce, or cause any officer, director or employee of a Purchaser or any of its Subsidiaries to leave the employ of such Purchaser or such Subsidiary, or in any way materially interfere with the relationship between such Person, on the one hand, and any such officer, director or employee, on the other hand; or (ii) induce, or attempt to induce, any customer, salesperson, supplier, vendor, representative, agent, licensee or other Person transacting business with a Purchaser or such Subsidiary to reduce or cease doing business with such Person, or in any way to interfere with the relationship between any such customer, salesperson, supplier, vendor, representative, agent, licensee or business relation, on the one hand, and such Purchaser or such Subsidiary, on the other hand; provided, however, that such Restricted Period will be extended by and for the duration of any period of time during which such Seller or Shareholder is in violation of any provision of this Section 8.1(c). The foregoing restrictions shall include any Person who was an officer, director, employee, customer, salesperson, supplier, vendor, representative, agent, licensee or other Person transacting business with the Sellers within six (6) months prior to the Closing Date or with a Purchaser or any of its Subsidiaries during such Restricted Period.

iv. The parties hereto specifically acknowledge and agree that the remedy at law for any breach of the foregoing will be inadequate and that the Purchasers, in addition to any other relief available to it, shall be entitled to temporary and permanent injunctive relief.

v. Each of the Sellers and the Shareholders hereby further acknowledge and agree that, in view of the nature of the Business and the business objectives of the Purchasers in acquiring the Purchased Assets and the consideration paid to the Sellers therefor, the scope of business, territorial and time limitations contained in this Section 8.1 are reasonable and properly required for the adequate protection of the Purchasers. The parties hereto intend that the covenants of this Section 8.1 be (i) enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by Law, and (ii) severable, and, if any reviewing court determines that any such covenant is unenforceable, invalid or of excessive duration or scope, such determination shall not affect the enforceability of any other covenants herein; further, in the event of any such determination, the parties authorize such court to (i) reform the unenforceable, invalid or excessive provisions, and (ii) impose such restrictions as reformed, as it deems reasonable. The Purchasers may, upon written notice to and without the consent of any Seller or Shareholder, reduce the scope of the covenants of this Section 8.1 that apply to such Seller or Shareholder, if the Purchasers deems such reduction in scope is necessary to enforce such covenants.

vi. Each Seller and each Shareholder hereby acknowledge that such Seller’s or Shareholder’s covenants made in this Section 8.1 are in addition to, and do not replace or amend, any non-competition covenants which may have heretofore been agreed to, or may hereafter be agreed to, with the Purchasers or their Subsidiaries, and in the event the covenants in this Section 8.1 are in any way found unenforceable or invalid or are in any way limited or reformed, such other covenants shall not be affected thereby.

b. Post-Closing Notifications. The Purchasers and the Sellers will, and each will cause their respective Affiliates to, comply with any post-Closing notification or other requirements, to the extent then applicable to such party, of any Law of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Purchasers or the Sellers.

c. Tax Matters.

i. Except for all motor vehicle and related sales, transfer and title taxes related to the transfer of the Purchased Assets and all closing costs related to the Property (all of which will be paid by the Purchasers), all sales, use, transfer, stamp, conveyance, value added or other similar Taxes, duties, excises or governmental charges imposed by any Governmental Authority, domestic or foreign, and all recording or filing fees, notarial fees and other similar costs of Closing with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby will be borne by the applicable Seller.

ii. Following the Closing, each party hereto shall afford the other parties, upon reasonable advance notice, reasonable access that does not unreasonably interfere with the affording party’s operation of its business, to the books and records relating to the Purchased Assets and Assumed Liabilities in the affording party’s possession and the right to make copies and extracts therefrom, to the extent that such access or copies may be reasonably required by the requesting party in connection with the preparation of its Tax Returns. If, in order to properly prepare such Tax Returns, it is necessary that a requesting party be furnished with additional information, documents or records relating to the Purchased Assets or Assumed Liabilities not referred to in the foregoing sentence, then the affording party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to furnish or make available, on a timely basis, such information, documents or records (or copies thereof) at the requesting party’s cost and expense. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, each party will, at its own expense, control any audit or examination by any Governmental Authority, and have the exclusive right to initiate any Claim for refund or amended return, and contest, resolve and defend against any assessment, notice of deficiency or other adjustment or proposed adjustment of Taxes (“Tax Proceedings”) for any taxable period for which that party is charged with payment responsibility under this Agreement. In the case of any Tax Proceedings relating to a period that begins before the Closing Date and ends after the Closing Date, the Purchasers will control such Tax Proceedings and will consult in good faith with the Sellers as to the conduct of such Tax Proceedings; provided, that in no event will the Purchasers settle any Tax Proceeding relating to any period that begins and ends on or before the Closing Date in a manner that would adversely affect Sellers, without the prior written consent of the Sellers, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

d. Name Change. Each Seller shall cease using the names “L & R Tank Trucks,” “Stark & Stark Equipment” or any derivative thereof and within ten (10) Business Days after the Closing Date, each Seller shall (a) file an amendment to its certificate of formation to reflect such change and (b) provide evidence of such name change to the Purchasers. Each Seller shall cooperate with the Purchasers to coordinate such filings to ensure that all rights to the names “L & R Tank Trucks” and “Stark & Stark Equipment” vests solely in the Purchasers.

e. Refunds and Remittances. After the Closing: (i) if any Seller receives any refund or other amount that is a Purchased Asset or is otherwise properly due and owing to any Purchaser in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, then such Seller promptly shall remit, or shall cause to be remitted, without setoff, such amount to the applicable Purchaser and (ii) if any Purchaser or any of its Affiliates receive any refund or other amount that is an Excluded Asset or is otherwise properly due and owing to any Seller in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, then such Purchasers promptly shall remit, or shall cause to be remitted, without setoff, such amount to the applicable Seller.

f. Public Announcements. Upon consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, except as required by applicable Law or stock exchange or similar rules, neither the Purchasers nor the Sellers shall disclose the terms of or the existence of this Agreement (except to advisors, investors and financing sources who have a need to know or who are otherwise subject to a confidentiality restriction) without the prior written consent of the other party.

g. Power of Attorney; Seller Mail.

i. Effective upon the Closing, each Seller hereby constitutes and appoints the Purchasers, their successors, legal representatives and assigns the true and lawful attorneys of such Seller with full power of substitution, in the name of such Seller, but on behalf of and for the benefit of the Purchasers, their successors, legal representatives and assigns, and at the expense of the Purchasers (i) to demand and receive from time to time any and all accounts receivable of the Sellers included in the Purchased Assets and other items directly related to such accounts receivable included in the Purchased Assets and to make endorsements and give receipts and releases for and in respect of the same and any part thereof and (ii) to do all such acts and things in relation to the matters set forth in the preceding clause (i) as the Purchasers, their successors, legal representatives or assigns shall deem desirable. Each Seller hereby agrees that the appointment hereby made and the powers hereby granted are coupled with an interest and are and shall be irrevocable by it in any manner or for any reason.

ii. Effective upon the Closing, the Purchasers shall have the right to receive and open all mail, packages and other communications addressed to either Seller and each Seller agrees to deliver promptly to the Purchasers any such mail, packages or other communications received directly or indirectly by such Seller that relate to the Purchased Assets. The Purchasers shall promptly deliver to the applicable Shareholder or applicable Seller all mail, packages and other communications received by it addressed to a Shareholder and/or a Seller that do not relate to the Purchased Assets.

h. Further Assurances. Each party will execute and deliver, both before and after the Closing, such further certificates, agreements and other documents and take such other actions as another party may reasonably request or as may be necessary or appropriate to consummate or implement the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or to evidence such events or matters; provided, however, that no party shall be required to execute an amendment hereof or to waive any of its rights or any breach hereunder. In addition, the Purchasers agree to cooperate reasonably with the Sellers and the Shareholders to the extent any Seller or Shareholder requests access to documents, employees or data in the event that such Shareholder becomes the subject of an audit or investigation by a Governmental Authority.

i. by mutual written consent of the Sellers and the Purchasers;

ii. by either the Sellers or the Purchasers, if (i) there shall be any Law that makes consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby illegal or otherwise prohibited or if any Order enjoining any Purchaser, any Seller or any Shareholder from consummating the transactions contemplated hereby is entered and such Order shall not have been vacated or stayed within thirty (30) days of the entry thereof, (ii) if the Sellers and the Purchasers cannot agree on the Estimated Working Capital in accordance with Section 2.6(b) or the Allocation Schedule in accordance with Section 2.7; or (iii) Closing has not occurred on or before January 31, 2013;

iv. by the Sellers if (i) at any time there has been a material misrepresentation, material breach of warranty or material breach of covenant on the part of any Purchaser in any of the representations, warranties or covenants under this Agreement which breach is not curable, or if curable, is not cured within ten (10) days after written notice of such breach is given to the Purchasers; or (ii) any of the conditions set forth in Section 7.2 hereof shall not have been met within thirty (30) days after the date hereof or is otherwise incapable of being satisfied; or

If the amount of any Indemnifiable Loss, at any time subsequent to the making of an Indemnity Payment, is reduced by recovery, settlement or otherwise under or pursuant to any insurance coverage, or pursuant to any claim, recovery, settlement or payment by or against any other Person, in each case which is actually received by the Indemnitee, the amount of such reduction, less any costs, expenses, premiums or taxes incurred in connection therewith will promptly be repaid by the Indemnitee to the Indemnifying Party, and net of any costs or expenses incurred in connection with collecting such amount (including any increased premium costs resulting therefrom); provided, however, that the foregoing shall not (i) require an Indemnitee to proceed or seek action or recovery from any such third party as a requirement hereunder or as a condition to seeking or recovering indemnification from any Indemnifying Party hereunder, or (ii) be construed or interpreted as a guaranty of any level or amount of insurance recovery with respect to any Indemnifiable Losses hereunder or as a requirement to maintain any insurance or to make any claim for insurance as a condition to any indemnification hereunder.

vi. Each of the representations and warranties that contains any “Knowledge,” “Material Adverse Effect,” “material” or similar materiality qualifications shall be read as though such qualifications were not contained therein for the purposes of determining whether or not an Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article X or the amount of Indemnifiable Losses to which such Indemnitee may be entitled under this Article X.

e. Defense of Claims.

i. If any Indemnitee receives notice of assertion or commencement of any Third Party Claim against such Indemnitee with respect to which an Indemnifying Party is obligated to provide indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnitee will give such Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof. Such notice will describe the Third Party Claim in reasonable detail, will include copies of all material written evidence thereof and will indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Indemnifiable Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnitee. The Indemnifying Party will have the right to participate in, or, by giving written notice to the Indemnitee, to assume, the defense of any Third Party Claim at such Indemnifying Party’s own expense and by such Indemnifying Party’s own counsel if: (i) the Indemnifying Party acknowledges its obligation to indemnify the Indemnitee for any Indemnifiable Losses resulting from such Third Party Claim, subject to the limitations set forth in Sections 10.2(b) and 10.2(c), (ii) such Third Party Claim involves (and continues to involve) solely monetary damages which are not reasonably likely to exceed the applicable amount (if any) in Section 10.2(c); (iii) such Third Party Claim does not relate to or arise in connection with any criminal action or the Indemnitee’s relationship with any customer, supplier or employee; and (iv) the Indemnifying Party makes reasonably adequate provision to satisfy the Indemnitee of the Indemnifying Party’s ability to defend, satisfy and discharge such Third Party Claim (collectively, the “Defense Conditions”). In such event, the Indemnifying Party shall from time to time apprise the Indemnitee of the status of the Third Party Claim and shall furnish the Indemnitee with such documents and information filed or delivered in connection with such claim, Liability or expense as the Indemnitee may reasonably request.

ii. If, within ten (10) calendar days after giving notice of a Third Party Claim to an Indemnifying Party pursuant to Section 10.5(a), an Indemnitee receives written notice from the Indemnifying Party that the Indemnifying Party has elected to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim as provided in the last sentence of Section 10.5(a) and the Defense Conditions are satisfied, the Indemnifying Party will not be liable for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with the defense thereof; provided, however, that if the Indemnifying Party fails to take reasonable steps necessary to defend diligently such Third Party Claim within ten (10) calendar days after receiving written notice from the Indemnitee that the Indemnitee believes the Indemnifying Party has failed to take such steps, if the Indemnifying Party has not undertaken fully to indemnify the Indemnitee in respect of all Indemnifiable Losses relating to the matter, subject to the limitations set forth in Sections 10.2(b) and 10.2(c), or if any of the Defense Conditions cease to be satisfied for any reason, the Indemnitee may assume its own defense, and the Indemnifying Party will be liable for all costs or expenses paid or incurred in connection therewith (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), subject to the limitations set forth in Section 10.2(b) and 10.2(c), and Indemnitee shall have the right to compromise or settle such Third Party Claim with the consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be

unreasonably withheld). If the Defense Conditions are satisfied and the Indemnifying Party elects to assume and control the defense of a Third Party Claim as provided herein, then: (i) the Indemnifying Party will not be liable for any settlement of such Third Party Claim effected without its consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; (ii) the Indemnifying Party may settle such Third Party Claim without the consent of the Indemnitee only if (A) all monetary damages payable in respect of the Third Party Claim are paid by the Indemnifying Party (subject to the limitations set forth in Sections 10.2(b) and 10.2(c)), (B) the Indemnitee receives a full, complete and unconditional release in respect of the Third Party Claim without any admission or finding of obligation (other than the obligation to pay the settlement amount under such agreement), liability, fault or guilt (criminal or otherwise) with respect to the Third Party Claim, and (C) no injunctive, extraordinary, equitable or other relief of any kind is imposed on the Indemnitee or any of its Affiliates; and (iii) the Indemnifying Party may otherwise settle such Third Party Claim only with the consent of the Indemnitee, which consent will not unreasonably be withheld or delayed. Notwithstanding anything herein stated, the Indemnitee shall at all times have the right to fully participate in such defense at its own expense directly or through counsel; provided, however, that the fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be borne by the Indemnifying Party if (i) the Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense within the period provided herein, (ii) there exists a conflict between the interests of the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnitee, (iii) a defense exists for the Indemnitee which is not available to the Indemnifying Party, or (iv) the employment of such counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party has been specifically authorized by the Indemnifying Party in writing. If the Defense Conditions are not satisfied, the Indemnitee may assume the exclusive right to defend, compromise or settle such Third Party Claim, but the Indemnifying Party will not be bound by any determination of a Third Party Claim so defended or any compromise or settlement effected without its consent (which may not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, that the Indemnitee will not be required to obtain any consent of the Indemnifying Party to the determination of such Third Party Claim (and will not prejudice its right to be indemnified with respect to such Third Party Claim by determining such Third Party Claim) if the Indemnifying Party is disputing in any manner its obligation to indemnify the Indemnitee in respect of such Third Party Claim.

iii. A failure to give timely notice or to include any specified information in any notice as provided in Sections 10.5(a) or 10.5(b) will not affect the rights or obligations of any party hereunder except and only to the extent that, as a result of such failure, any party which was entitled to receive such notice was deprived of its right to recover any payment under its applicable insurance coverage or was otherwise materially damaged as a result of such failure.

iv. The Indemnifying Party will have a period of fifteen (15) calendar days within which to respond in writing to any written claim by an Indemnitee on account of an Indemnifiable Loss which does not result from a Third Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”). If the Indemnifying Party does not so respond within such fifteen (15) calendar day period, the Indemnifying Party will be deemed to have rejected such claim, in which event the Indemnitee will be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to the Indemnitee on the terms and subject to the provisions of this Article X.
