The Company shall reasonably consult with Buyer prior to delivery of the Estimated Closing Statement; provided, that in no event shall such consultation or the delivery of such Estimated Closing Statement be deemed to constitute the agreement of Buyer to any of the estimates or amounts set forth in such Estimated Closing Statement, and in no way shall delivery of the Estimated Closing Statement or the consummation of the Closing be construed as a waiver by Buyer of its rights under this Section 2.3. The Estimated Working Capital, Estimated Cash, Estimated Indebtedness and Estimated Transaction

Expenses set forth in the Estimated Closing Statement (i) will be prepared in accordance with the definitions thereof and, in the case of Estimated Working Capital, Estimated Cash and Estimated Indebtedness, the standards and methods used in the Financial Statements, applied consistently, and (ii) will disregard any and all effects on the assets and Liabilities of the Company as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including any financing arrangements entered into by Buyer or any of its Affiliates in connection therewith).

(b) Determination of Post-Closing Adjustment. No later than sixty (60) days following the Closing, Buyer shall deliver to the Seller a written statement certified by an executive officer of Buyer (the “Closing Statement”) setting forth the calculation of the actual Working Capital as of the close of business on the day prior to the date hereof (“Actual Working Capital”), a calculation of the actual Cash of the Company as of the close of business on the day prior to the date hereof (“Actual Cash”), a calculation of the actual Indebtedness of the Company as of immediately prior to the Closing (“Actual Indebtedness”), a calculation of the actual Transaction Expenses as of the Closing (“Actual Transaction Expenses”).

(i) No later than thirty (30) days following the delivery by Buyer of the Closing Statement, the Seller shall notify Buyer in writing whether it accepts or disputes the accuracy of the calculation of Actual Working Capital, Actual Cash, Actual Indebtedness and Actual Transaction Expenses. During such thirty (30) day period, the Seller and its agents shall be provided with such access to the financial books and records of the Company as well as any relevant work papers as it may reasonably request to enable it to evaluate the calculations of Actual Working Capital, Actual Cash, Actual Indebtedness and Actual Transaction Expenses prepared by Buyer. If the Seller accepts the calculation of Actual Working Capital, Actual Cash, Actual Indebtedness and Actual Transaction Expenses determined pursuant to Section 2.3(b), or if the Seller fails within such thirty (30) day period to notify Buyer of any dispute with respect thereto, then the calculation of Actual Working Capital determined pursuant to Section 2.3(b) shall be the “Final Working Capital,” the calculation of Actual Cash determined pursuant to Section 2.3(b) shall be the “Final Cash,” the calculation of Actual Indebtedness determined pursuant to Section 2.3(b) shall be the “Final Indebtedness,” and the calculation of Actual Transaction Expenses determined pursuant to Section 2.3(b) shall be the “Final Transaction Expenses,” which, in each case, shall be deemed final and conclusive and binding upon all Parties in all respects.

(ii) If the Seller disputes the accuracy of the calculation of Actual Working Capital, Actual Cash, Actual Indebtedness or Actual Transaction Expenses, the Seller shall provide written notice to Buyer no later than thirty (30) days following the delivery by Buyer to the Seller of the calculation of Actual Working Capital, Actual Cash, Actual Indebtedness and Actual Transaction Expenses (the “Dispute Notice”), setting forth in reasonable detail those items that the Seller disputes (each such item, an “Item of Dispute”). During the thirty (30) day period following delivery of the Dispute Notice, Buyer and the Seller shall negotiate in good faith with a view to resolving their disagreements over each Item of Dispute. During such thirty (30) day period and until the final determination of Actual Working Capital, Actual Cash, Actual

Indebtedness and/or Actual Transaction Expenses in accordance with this Section 2.3(c)(ii) or Section 2.3(c)(iii), as the case may be (as so determined, or as determined pursuant to Section 2.3(c)(i) above, “Final Working Capital,” “Final Cash,” “Final Indebtedness,” and “Final Transaction Expenses,” respectively), the Seller and its agents shall be provided with such access to the financial books and records of the Company during normal business hours and without interruption to the Business as it may reasonably request to enable it to address all matters set forth in any Dispute Notice. If the Parties resolve their differences over the disputed items in accordance with the foregoing procedure, Final Working Capital, Final Cash, Final Indebtedness and/or Final Transaction Expenses shall be the amounts agreed upon by them. If the Parties fail to resolve their differences over the disputed items within such thirty (30) day period, then Buyer and the Seller shall forthwith jointly request Armanino LLP (the “Accounting Arbitrator”) to make a binding determination as to the disputed items in accordance with this Agreement.

(iii) The Accounting Arbitrator will under the terms of its engagement have no more than thirty (30) days from the date of referral and no more than ten (10) Business Days from the final submission of written information and written testimony by Buyer and the Seller (which will be provided to each other) within which to render its written decision with respect to each Item of Dispute (and only with respect to any unresolved Items of Dispute set forth in the Dispute Notice) and the final calculation of Actual Working Capital, Actual Cash, Actual Indebtedness and/or Actual Transaction Expenses shall be based solely on the resolution of such Items of Dispute. The Accounting Arbitrator shall review such written submissions, and base its determination solely on such submissions and in accordance with this Agreement; provided, that in resolving any disputed item, the Accounting Arbitrator may not assign a value to any item greater than the maximum value or less than the minimum value for each such item claimed by the Seller in the Estimated Working Capital, Estimated Cash, Estimated Indebtedness or Estimated Transaction Expenses or by Buyer in the Actual Working Capital, Actual Cash, Actual Indebtedness or Actual Transaction Expenses, as applicable. The decision of the Accounting Arbitrator shall be deemed final and binding upon the Parties and enforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction and the Accounting Arbitrator’s final calculation of Actual Working Capital shall be deemed the “Final Working Capital,” the Accounting Arbitrator’s final calculation of Actual Cash shall be deemed the “Final Cash,” the Accounting Arbitrator’s final calculation of Actual Indebtedness shall be deemed the “Final Indebtedness,” and/or the Accounting Arbitrator’s final calculation of Actual Transaction Expenses shall be deemed the “Final Transaction Expenses.” The fees and expenses of the Accounting Arbitrator shall be allocated to be paid by Buyer, on the one hand, and the Seller, on the other, based upon the percentage that the portion of the contested amount not awarded to each Party bears to the amount actually contested by such Party, as determined by the Accounting Arbitrator.

(d) Payment following Calculation of Final Working Capital, Final Cash, Final Indebtedness and Final Transaction Expenses.

(i) Following the determination of Final Working Capital, Final Cash, Final Indebtedness and Final Transaction Expenses, the Closing Purchase Amount shall be recalculated by substituting the Final Working Capital for the Estimated Working Capital in Section 2.3(a), the Final Cash for the Estimated Cash in Section 2.3(a), the Final Indebtedness for the Estimated Indebtedness in Section 2.3(a), and the Final Transaction Expenses for the Estimated Transaction Expenses in Section 2.3(a) (the “Adjusted Purchase Amount”) and if (A) the Adjusted Purchase Amount is greater than the Closing Purchase Amount on the date hereof, (such excess amount, if any, the “Excess Amount”), then (I) Buyer and the Seller shall promptly (within five (5) Business Days) cause the Escrow Agent to release to the Seller the Adjustment Escrow Amount and (II) Buyer shall promptly pay to the Seller the Excess Amount; (B) the Closing Purchase Amount on

the date hereof is greater than the Adjusted Purchase Amount (such shortfall amount, if any, the “Shortfall Amount”), then Buyer and the Seller shall cause the Escrow Agent to release to Buyer an aggregate amount equal to the Shortfall Amount from the Adjustment Escrow Amount (with any Shortfall Amount that exceeds the Adjustment Escrow Amount to come from the Indemnification Escrow Amount, or if the Indemnification Escrow Amount has been released or exhausted, from the Seller directly); provided that if the Shortfall Amount is less than the Adjustment Escrow Amount, then Buyer and the Seller shall promptly (within five (5) Business Days) cause the Escrow Agent to release to the Seller the remaining amount of the Adjustment Escrow Amount; and (C) the Closing Purchase Amount on the date hereof is equal to the Adjusted Purchase Amount, then Buyer and the Seller shall promptly (within five (5) Business Days) cause the Escrow Agent to release to the Seller the Adjustment Escrow Amount and neither party shall make any payment pursuant to this Section 2.3(d).

(ii) All payments pursuant to this Section 2.3(d) shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in advance by the Seller or Buyer, as applicable, and shall be made on or prior to the fifth (5^th) Business Day following: (A) the thirty (30)-day period following Buyer’s delivery of the calculation of the Actual Working Capital, Actual Cash, Actual Indebtedness and Actual Transaction Expenses pursuant to Section 2.3(b) if the Seller does not timely dispute any of such amounts pursuant to Section 2.3(c)(i); (B) the date of the Seller’s and Buyer’s mutual determination of Final Working Capital, Final Cash, Final Indebtedness and Final Transaction Expenses in the event the Seller timely disputes either of such amounts pursuant to Section 2.3(c)(i) and the Seller’s and Buyer’s differences are resolved without the engagement of an Accounting Arbitrator pursuant to Section 2.3(c)(ii); and (C) the date of the Accounting Arbitrator’s determination of Final Working Capital, Final Cash, Final Indebtedness and/or Final Transaction Expenses pursuant to Section 2.3(c)(iii) in the event the Seller timely disputes either of such amounts pursuant to Section 2.3(c)(i) and the Seller and Buyer are unable to resolve their differences pursuant to Section 2.3(c)(ii).

For purposes of Section 7.2(a) and Section 7.2(b), the existence of a breach and the determination of the Loss related thereto shall be determined without giving effect to any qualification in the representations and warranties of the Seller or Buyer by “materiality,” “in all material respects,” “Material Adverse Effect” or words of similar effect.

The Seller shall not be liable for Losses (i) to the extent such Losses are taken into account in the Final Working Capital, Final Cash, Final Indebtedness or Final Transaction Expenses or have otherwise been previously paid by the Seller, or (ii) under Section 7.2(a) as a result of, in connection with, relating to or by virtue of Taxes of the Company (or, following the Closing, Buyer or any Affiliate of Buyer) for any taxable period (whether ending before, on, or after the Closing Date) (which the Parties acknowledge and agree are exclusively covered by and limited under Section 8.1 including limited indemnification obligations with respect to Net Overhead Capitalization Tax Cost).

For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 7.2(a) shall derogate from the Seller’s right at law or equity to directly recover from any officer, director or employee of the Company, in each case, as of immediately prior to the Closing, any Losses resulting from such Person’s fraud or intentional misrepresentation.

(b) Buyer Indemnification. Buyer shall indemnify the Seller and its successors and permitted assigns (collectively, the “Seller Parties”) and hold each of them harmless from and against and pay on behalf of or reimburse the Seller Parties in respect of any Loss which such Seller Party may suffer, sustain or become subject to, as the result of, in connection with, relating to or by virtue of:

(i) the breach by Buyer of any representation or warranty made by Buyer contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to the Seller;

(ii) the breach of any covenant or agreement made by Buyer contained in this Agreement or the Transaction Documents; or

(iii) the operations, conduct, errors or omissions of the Company after the date hereof;

provided, that with respect to any claim for indemnification by any Seller Party pursuant to Section 7.2(b)(i) (other than with regard to Fundamental Representations or claims for fraud or willful misrepresentation): (A) Buyer shall have no liability for such claim unless the aggregate amount of Losses with respect to all indemnification claims made pursuant to Section 7.2(b)(i) exceeds the Deductible and then only to the extent the Losses relating to such claims exceed the Deductible; provided, further, that in calculating whether the Deductible has been exceeded, only claims (or series of claims arising from the same or substantially similar facts or circumstances) for Losses in excess of the Mini-Basket shall be considered, (B) Buyer’s maximum liability for all such claims shall not exceed the Cap; provided, that such limitation shall not apply to, and each Seller Party shall be entitled to make, claims for indemnification in respect of (i) Losses arising out of any inaccuracy or breach of any Fundamental Representation and (ii) Losses arising out of fraud or intentional misrepresentation.

(i) Direct Claims. In order to seek indemnification against a party to this Agreement or one of its Affiliates under this Article VII or Section 8.1(c), the party claiming indemnification (the “Indemnified Party”) shall deliver notice (a “Claim Notice”) to the party from whom the indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) (which notice, if sent by Buyer, shall be sent to the Seller and shall also be sent to the Escrow Agent). If the Seller has not delivered an Objection Notice pursuant to Section 7.2(c)(ii) for any Claim Notice by the thirty-first (31^st) day after the receipt by the Seller of the applicable Claim Notice, Buyer shall deliver to Seller a second copy of such Claim Notice. Unless the Seller shall have delivered an Objection Notice pursuant to Section 7.2(c)(ii) for any Claim Notice (A), Seller shall be deemed to have accepted full responsibility and liability for all Losses set forth in such Claim Notice and (B) if such claim is made against the Indemnification Escrow Amount, the Buyer and the Seller shall, on the sixty-first (61^st) day after the receipt by the Seller the applicable second Claim Notice, deliver to the Escrow Agent a joint written instruction instructing the Escrow Agent to deliver to Buyer (or its designee) from the Indemnification Escrow Amount an amount equal to the Losses set forth in such Claim Notice.

(ii) Objections to Direct Claims. If the Indemnifying Party shall object in a written statement to a Claim Notice (an “Objection Notice”), and such Objection Notice shall have been delivered to Buyer or the Seller (and the Escrow Agent if the Indemnified Party is a Buyer Party), as applicable, prior to 11:59 p.m. (ET) on the sixtieth (60^th) day after the Indemnifying Party’s receipt of the second Claim Notice, no payment shall be made under Section 7.2(c)(i) until such claim shall have been resolved as provided herein.

(iii) Resolution of Direct Claim Conflicts.

(A) If the Indemnifying Party delivers an Objection Notice in accordance with Section 7.2(c)(ii), the Seller and Buyer shall attempt in good faith to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of such claims. If the Indemnified Party is a Buyer Party, and if the Seller and Buyer should so agree as to a resolution to such indemnity claim, Buyer and the Seller shall prepare, execute and

deliver to the Escrow Agent a joint written instructions setting forth such agreement, including the amounts Buyer and the Seller agree should be released from the Indemnification Escrow Amount. The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely on any joint written instructions and make distributions of the Indemnification Escrow Amount in accordance with the terms thereof.

(B) In the event Buyer and the Seller are unable to agree upon the resolution of an indemnity claim set forth in an Objection Notice within thirty (30) days following delivery of such Objection Notice, or in the event of any other dispute arising pursuant to this Section 7.2 or Section 8.1(c), either Buyer or the Seller may pursue any and all legal or equitable remedies available to them under applicable law, and the Escrow Agent shall only distribute funds thereafter with respect to the claims relating to such Objection Notice pursuant to joint written instructions as described in Section 7.2(c)(iii)(A) or a final, non-appealable court order from a court of competent jurisdiction.

(iv) Third Party Claims. In the event a Buyer Party or the Seller receives a third party claim (a “Third Party Claim”) for which indemnification may be sought hereunder against such Indemnified Party, such Indemnified Party shall promptly provide written notification (a “Third Party Claim Notice”) to the Indemnifying Party (which if the Indemnified Party is a Buyer Party, such Third Party Claim Notice shall be sent to the Seller and the Escrow Agent) of such claim after it receives such Third Party Claim specifying the nature of such Third Party Claim and the amount or estimated amount thereof, together with copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) served on or received by such Indemnified Party, which notice must be identified as a “Third Party Claim Notice.” If the Third Party Claim may result in a claim for Losses payable from the Indemnification Escrow Amount, the Seller shall have the right, at its sole cost and expense, to assume the entire control of the defense, compromise or settlement of such claim (including the selection of counsel reasonably satisfactory to Buyer), subject to the right of the Indemnified Party to participate (with counsel of its choice, but the fees and expenses of such additional counsel shall solely be at the expense of the Indemnified Party); provided, that the Indemnifying Party will not be entitled to control, and the Indemnified Party will be entitled to have sole control over, the defense, compromise or settlement of any Third Party Claim (and the cost of such defense and any Losses with respect to such Third Party Claim shall constitute an amount for which the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification hereunder) if (A) seeks non-monetary relief, (B) involves criminal or quasi-criminal allegations, (C) involves a claim to which the Indemnified Party reasonably believes an adverse determination would be detrimental to or injure the Indemnified Party’s reputation or future business prospects, (D) involves a claim which, upon petition by the Indemnified Party, the appropriate court rules that the Indemnifying Party failed or is failing to vigorously prosecute or defend, or (E) involves a claim which the Indemnified Party believes in good faith could not be satisfied by the Indemnifying Party if the claim were adversely decided; provided that: if the named parties to any Third Party Claim or proceeding include both an Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party, and if the Indemnified Party has been advised in writing by counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to such Indemnified Party that are different from, or additional to, those available to the Indemnifying Party, then the Indemnified Party shall be entitled, at the Indemnifying Party’s reasonable cost and expense, to one separate counsel of its own choosing. If the Indemnifying Party shall control the defense of any such claim, (X) each Indemnified Party shall reasonably cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in the defense thereof and (Y) the Indemnifying Party will not compromise or settle, or offer or consent to compromise or settle, any such action, suit, proceeding, claim or demand (other than, after consultation with the applicable Indemnified Party, an action, suit, proceeding, claim or demand to be settled solely by

the payment of money damages) that (A) does not involve granting by the Person or Persons asserting such claim or demand of an unconditional release from all liability of the Indemnified Party and its Affiliates with respect to such claim (and any potential similar or analogous claims), (B) involves any non-monetary relief or remedy, including any restrictions on any Indemnified Party’s ability to operate or compete or (C) involves any admission of wrongdoing or violation of law or acknowledges the Indemnified Party’s liability for future acts, in each case without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent may be withheld in the Indemnified Party’s sole discretion. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of a Third Party Claim within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Third Party Claim Notice (or ceases in good faith to continue the defense), then the Indemnified Party shall have the right to control the defense, compromise or settlement of such Third Party Claim (including the selection of counsel), subject to the right of the Indemnifying Party to participate (with counsel of its choice, but the fees and expenses of such additional counsel shall solely be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party), and the Indemnified Party will not compromise or settle any such action, suit, proceeding, claim or demand without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. The party hereto that is not conducting the defense shall provide the party conducting the defense and its counsel with reasonable access during normal business hours to such party’s records and personnel relating to any Third Party Claim and both parties shall otherwise reasonably cooperate in conducting the defense in the defense or settlement thereof.

(d) Calculation of Losses. (a) The amount of any Losses payable under Section 7.2 by the Indemnifying Party shall be net of any (i) amounts actually recovered by the Indemnified Party under applicable insurance policies, or from any other Person alleged to be responsible therefor (net of any expenses incurred in pursuing the claim and the net present value of any premium increase related to the payment of the claim), and (ii) Tax savings attributable to such Losses realized by the Indemnified Party in the taxable year in which such Losses were incurred and the immediately following taxable year (net of incremental Tax liabilities attributable to the indemnification of such Losses), treating all Tax items attributable to such Losses as the last items taken into account for purposes of determining the amount of any such savings. If the Indemnified Party receives any amounts under applicable insurance policies, or from any other Person alleged to be responsible for any Loss, subsequent to an indemnification payment by the Indemnifying Party, then such Indemnified Party shall promptly reimburse the Indemnifying Party for any payment made or expense incurred by such Indemnifying Party in connection with providing such indemnification payment up to the amount received by the Indemnified Party, net of any expenses incurred by such Indemnified Party in collecting such amount.

(e) Payments. The Indemnifying Party shall pay the Indemnified Party in immediately available funds promptly after the Indemnified Party provides the Indemnifying Party with written notice of a claim hereunder and the Parties reasonably agree that there is a reasonable basis for such claim. Amounts paid to or on behalf of any Party as indemnification shall be treated as adjustments to the consideration paid for the Shares hereunder.

(f) Mitigation of Damages. Each Party’s right to indemnification hereunder shall be subject to such Party’s obligations under applicable law to mitigate damages and each Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate damages for which indemnification is available hereunder to the extent applicable law requires mitigation of damages for which breach of contract damages are available.

7.3 Offset. Any Loss which any Buyer Party suffers, sustains or becomes subject to and with respect to which such Buyer Party is entitled to indemnification from the Seller pursuant to this Article VII may, at the option of such Buyer Party, be satisfied by setting off all or any portion of such Losses against payment of any amount due to the Seller from any Buyer Party.

7.4 Sole Recourse. Other than in the case of fraud or intentional misrepresentation (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the representations and warranties set forth in Articles IV, V and VI), each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article VII shall be the exclusive remedy of the Parties with respect to any breaches or alleged breaches of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement and the Transaction Documents (unless provided for therein), it being agreed that nothing herein shall limit or impair any Party’s right to obtain specific performance, proportionate reduction of the purchase price or other injunctive relief with respect to any such breach or alleged breach of any such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement.

7.5 Escrow Matters.

(a) Recourse. From and after the Closing, any indemnification for a Loss for which a Buyer Party is entitled pursuant to Section 7.2(a) shall be first satisfied by recouping all of such Loss from the Indemnification Escrow Amount in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, until the Indemnification Escrow Amount is exhausted or released pursuant thereto.

(b) Release. Subject to the terms and provisions of the Escrow Agreement, on the date that is eighteen (18) months after the date hereof (the “Escrow Release Date”), Buyer and the Seller shall deliver a joint written instruction to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to release to the Seller an amount from the Escrow Account equal to the aggregate amount then held in the Escrow Account less an amount equal to the maximum aggregate claims amount in respect of all indemnification claims asserted by a Buyer Party in good faith that are pending as of such date. Thereafter, upon full and final resolution of each such pending claim (including release of any funds to a Buyer Party in respect thereof, if applicable), Buyer and the Seller shall execute and deliver a joint written instruction to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to release to the Seller the aggregate amount then held in the Escrow Account less an amount equal to the maximum aggregate claims amount in respect of all indemnification claims asserted by a Buyer Party in accordance with this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement that remain pending as of such date. The Parties agree that, at all times following the Escrow Release Date, the Escrow Agent shall retain in the Escrow Account (to the extent of funds then remaining therein) an amount not less than the maximum aggregate claims amount in respect of all indemnification claims asserted by a Buyer Party in good faith in accordance with this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement that remain pending as of such time.

ARTICLE VIII

ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS

8.1 Tax Matters.

(a) Preparation and Filing of Tax Returns. Buyer shall timely prepare and file, or shall cause to be timely prepared and filed, Tax Returns for the Company with respect to taxable periods ending on or before the date hereof and Straddle Periods, in each such case which are due after the date hereof; provided, however, that Buyer shall provide each such Tax Return (which shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past practices except as otherwise required to comply with applicable law) to the Seller for its review at least thirty (30) Business Days prior to the date on which such Tax Return is to be filed and Buyer shall make all changes reasonably requested by the Seller in good faith (unless Buyer is advised in writing by its independent outside accountants or attorneys that such changes (i) are contrary to

applicable Law, or (ii) will, or are likely to, have a materially adverse effect on Buyer or any of its Affiliates). In the event that Buyer does not agree to a requested change by the Seller, and the Seller reasonably believes such change is required by Law, the dispute shall be resolved by the Accounting Arbitrator in a manner consistent with that set forth in Section 2.3(c)(ii) hereof, and such Tax Return shall be filed in the manner determined by the Accounting Arbitrator. The Seller shall pay to Buyer any amount shown to be due on any such Tax Return (to the extent such amount was not reflected in Indebtedness or in the Working Capital, each as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.3) with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the due date of such Tax Return. Without the prior written consent of the Seller (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed), neither Buyer nor any of its Affiliates shall make or change any tax election or file any amended Tax Return or surrender any right to claim a refund of Taxes in respect of any taxable period ending on or prior to the Closing Date if such election, amendment or surrender would have the effect of increasing the Tax liability of the Company or reducing any Tax refund or credit that Company is entitled to receive.

(b) Cooperation on Tax Matters. The Parties shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by any other Party, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns, and any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other Party’s request) the provision of records and information which are reasonably relevant to any such audit, litigation or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder.

(c) Tax Indemnification. The Seller shall indemnify the Buyer Parties and hold them harmless from and against (i) all Taxes (or the non-payment thereof) of the Company for all taxable periods ending on or before the date hereof and the portion through the end of the date hereof for any taxable period that includes (but does not end on) the date hereof (each such taxable period, a “Pre-Closing Tax Period”), excluding any such Taxes that constitute Net Overhead Capitalization Tax Cost (which Taxes are the subject of clause (ii) of this Section 8.1(c)), (ii) 50% (fifty percent) of any Net Overhead Capitalization Tax Cost, (iii) all Taxes of any member of an Affiliated Group of which the Company (or any predecessor thereof) is or was a member on or prior to the date hereof, (iii) any and all Taxes of any Person (other than the Company) imposed on the Company as a transferee or successor, by contract or pursuant to any law, rule or regulation, which Taxes relate to an event or transaction occurring before the Closing, (iv) any and all Taxes for all taxable periods (and the portion of any Straddle Periods) beginning after the date of Closing that are attributable to any breach of the representations set forth in Section 4.10(xiv) (without regard to any disclosures made with respect to such representations to Buyer in the Disclosure Schedules or otherwise), excluding any such Taxes that constitute Net Overhead Capitalization Tax Cost (which Taxes are the subject of clause (ii) of this Section 8.1(c)), and (v) any and all employment and payroll Taxes imposed with respect to compensatory payments required to be made in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, excluding, with respect to any such item, the amount (if any) of such item that was taken into account as Indebtedness or Transaction Expenses as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.3. For the avoidance of doubt and purposes of clarity, (A) the fifty percent (50%) portion of the Net Overhead Capitalization Tax Cost that is not an indemnification obligation of the Seller pursuant to this Section 8.1(c) shall constitute a cost that is economically borne by the Buyer through its ownership of the Company following the Closing and (B) a mutually agreed narrative description of concept of Net Overhead Capitalization Tax Cost is set forth on Schedule 8.1(c). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the obligations under this Section 8.1(c) shall survive indefinitely or until the latest date permitted by law.

(d) Straddle Period. In the case of any taxable period that includes (but does not end on) the date hereof (a “Straddle Period”), the amount of any Taxes based on or measured by income, receipts, or payroll (including withholding with respect to any such Tax) of the Company for the

Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be determined based on an interim closing of the books as of the close of business on the date hereof (and all Transaction Expenses shall be treated as paid by the Company on or prior to the date hereof to the extent permitted by applicable Law), and the amount of other Taxes of the Company for a Straddle Period which relate to the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire taxable period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the taxable period ending on the day before the date hereof and the denominator of which is the number of days in the Straddle Period.

(e) Tax Contests. The Seller shall have the right to control, and Buyer shall have the right to participate in (at its own expense), any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes and Tax Returns of the Company for which a Buyer Party would be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement (a “Pre-Closing Tax Contest”); provided, however, that the Seller shall not settle or compromise any such Pre-Closing Tax Contest without Buyer’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). The Seller shall keep Buyer reasonably informed of the details and status of such matter (including promptly providing Buyer with copies of all written correspondence regarding such matter). Buyer shall provide the Seller with prompt written notice of any written inquiries by a Governmental Authority relating to a Pre-Closing Tax Contest within five (5) days of the receipt of such notice. If the Seller elects not to control such Pre-Closing Tax Contest, then Buyer shall control such matter, provided in such case that (i) the Seller shall have the right to participate in any such matter (at its own expense), (ii) Buyer shall keep the Seller reasonably informed of the details and status of such matter (including promptly providing the Seller with copies of all written correspondence regarding such matter), and (iii) Buyer shall not settle any such proceedings without the prior written consent of the Seller (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). In the event of any conflict between this Section 8.1(e) and Section 7.2(c)(iv) (Third Party Claims), the provisions of this Section 8.1(e) shall govern.

(f) Tax Refunds. Refunds of Tax relating to taxable periods ending on or prior to the Closing and that portion of a Straddle Period that is on and prior to Closing under the principles of Section 8.1(d) shall be paid to the Seller by the Company (or any of its Affiliates) to the Seller (net of any incremental Taxes and other reasonable out-of-pocket costs attributable to such refunds) within fifteen (15) days following receipt thereof by the Company (or any of its Affiliates); provided, however, that Buyer shall in no event have an obligation to file or cause to be filed a claim for refund with respect to any Taxes relating to any period. All other refunds of Tax are the property of Buyer.

8.2 Press Releases and Announcements. The Parties agree that no press release or other public announcement (including in any trade journal or other publication) of the transactions contemplated hereby shall be made without the prior written consent of Buyer and the Seller. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Buyer may issue a press release on or prior to ten (10) Business Days from the date hereof, which press release shall be mutually agreed to in writing by the Parties.

8.3 Further Transfers. The Seller shall execute and deliver such further instruments of conveyance and transfer and take such additional action as Buyer may reasonably request to effect, consummate, confirm or evidence the transfer to Buyer of the Shares and any other transactions contemplated hereby.

8.4 Expenses. Except as otherwise provided herein, each of the Parties shall pay all of its own fees, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, fees, costs and expenses of legal counsel, investment bankers, brokers or other representatives and consultants and appraisal fees, costs and expenses) incurred in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents, the performance of its obligations hereunder and thereunder, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.

8.5 Employee Matters.

(a) From and after the date of the Closing until the one year anniversary of the date of the Closing, the Buyer and its Subsidiaries shall provide, or shall cause to be provided, to each current (as of immediately prior to the Closing) employee of the Company (collectively, the “Company Employees”) during periods of continued employment with the Company (i) base compensation no less favorable than those that were provided to such Company Employee immediately prior to the date of Closing (excluding equity based, profit sharing and change in control arrangements) and (ii) health, retirement, welfare and other benefits that are substantially comparable in the aggregate to either (i) the benefits that were provided to such Company Employee under the Employee Benefit Plans set forth on Schedule 4.17(a) immediately prior to the date of Closing (excluding equity based, profit sharing and change in control arrangements) or (ii) the benefits that are provided by Buyer and its Affiliates to their other similarly situated employees.

(b) For eligibility and vesting purposes (other than vesting of future equity awards) and for purposes of determining future paid time off accruals and severance amounts under the employee benefit plans of the Buyer and its Affiliates providing any benefits to any Company Employee after the date of Closing (the “New Plans”), each Company Employee shall be credited with his or her hours and years of service with the Company and its predecessors to the same extent that such service was recognized for similar purposes under the Employee Benefit Plans immediately prior to the Closing; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to the extent that its application would result in a duplication of benefits. In addition, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause (i) each Company Employee to be immediately eligible to participate, without any waiting time, in any and all New Plans to the extent coverage under such New Plan replaces coverage under a similar Employee Benefit Plan in which such Company Employee participated (such plans, collectively, the “Old Plans”), and (ii) for purposes of each New Plan providing medical, dental, pharmaceutical, vision, disability, life, vacation or other welfare benefits to any Company Employee (or his or her covered dependents) (collectively, the “Buyer Welfare Plans”), Buyer shall cause all pre-existing condition exclusions and limitations and actively-at-work requirements of such Buyer Welfare Plan to be waived for such Company Employee and his or her covered dependents (to the extent such exclusions, limitations and requirements did not apply to such Company Employee under the Old Plans), and Buyer shall cause any eligible expenses incurred by such Company Employee and his or her covered dependents under the corresponding group health Old Plan during the portion of the plan year of such Old Plans ending on the date such Company Employee’s participation in the corresponding Buyer Welfare Plan begins (such initial plan year of participation, the “Initial Year of Participation”) to be taken into account under such Buyer Welfare Plan for purposes of satisfying all deductible, coinsurance and maximum out-of-pocket requirements applicable to such Company Employee and his or her covered dependents for the Initial Year of Participation as if such amounts had been paid in accordance with such Buyer Welfare Plan.

(c) Nothing contained in this Section 8.5, express or implied: (i) shall be construed to establish, amend, or modify any benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement, (ii) shall alter or limit the Buyer’s, the Company’s or any of their Affiliates’ ability to amend, modify or terminate any particular benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement, (iii) is intended to confer upon any current or former employee any right to employment or continued employment for any period of time by reason of this Agreement, or any right to a particular term or condition of employment, or (iv) is intended to confer upon any individual (including employees, retirees, or dependents or beneficiaries of employees or retirees) any right as a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement.

8.6 Email Forwarding. The Company shall maintain the email address ***@*** under its domain server at no cost for a period of not less than six (6) months from the Closing Date, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly forward all emails received at such address to ***@*** or such other address as the Guarantor notifies Buyer in writing from time to time.

ARTICLE IX

This Agreement may be amended and any provision of this Agreement may be waived; provided that any such amendment or waiver shall be binding upon a Party only if such amendment or waiver is set forth in a writing executed by the Seller, Buyer and the Company.

9.3 Binding Agreement; Assignment. This Agreement and all of the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns; provided that neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder may be assigned by any Party without the prior written consent of the Seller and Buyer. Without the prior written consent of any Party, Buyer and its permitted assigns may at any time, in their sole discretion, assign, in whole or in part, (a) their right to receive the Shares to one or more of their Affiliates; (b) their rights under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents for collateral security purposes to any lender providing financing Buyer or any of its Affiliates, such permitted assign or any of its Affiliates and any such lender may exercise all of the rights and remedies of such assignee hereunder and thereunder; and (c) their rights under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, in whole or in part, to any subsequent purchaser of Buyer, such permitted transferee or any of their divisions or any material portion of their assets (whether such sale is structured as a sale of stock, sale of assets, merger, recapitalization or otherwise); provided, however, that Buyer shall continue to remain liable for all obligations, liabilities, warranties and covenants of Buyer in the event of such assignment.

9.4 Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other Governmental Authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable, 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 so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party. Upon such a determination, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

9.5 Construction. The language used in this Agreement shall be deemed to be the language chosen by the Parties to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction shall be applied against any person. Nothing in the disclosure schedules dated as of the date hereof and delivered herewith by the Seller to Buyer (the “Disclosure Schedules”) shall be deemed adequate to disclose an exception to a representation or warranty made herein unless the Disclosure Schedule identifies the exception with reasonable particularity and describes the relevant facts in reasonable detail. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the mere listing (or inclusion of a copy) of a document or other item shall not be deemed adequate to disclose an exception to a representation or warranty made herein unless the applicability to such representation or warranty is reasonably apparent on its face. The Parties intend that each representation, warranty, and covenant contained herein shall have independent significance. If any Party has breached any representation, warranty, or covenant contained herein in any respect, the fact that there exists another representation, warranty, or covenant relating to the same subject matter (regardless of the relative levels of specificity) which the Party has not breached shall not detract from or mitigate the fact that the Party is in breach of the first representation, warranty, or covenant. Any reference herein to “provided” or “made available” to Buyer means, with respect to any document or information, that the same has been made available to Buyer for a continuous period of at least two (2) Business Days prior to the date of this Agreement by means of the virtual data room located at https://app.box.com/folder ###-###-####.

9.6 Captions. The captions used in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and do not constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit, characterize or in any way affect any provision of this Agreement, and all provisions of this Agreement shall be enforced and construed as if no caption had been used in this Agreement.

9.7 Entire Agreement. The Disclosure Schedules identified in this Agreement are incorporated herein by reference. This Agreement and the documents referred to herein contain the entire agreement between the Parties and supersede any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or between the Parties, written or oral, which may have related to the subject matter hereof in any way.

9.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

9.9 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the domestic Laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the Laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware. Any action, suit or other proceeding, at law or in equity, arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any agreements or transactions contemplated hereby shall only be brought in any state or federal court in San Francisco, California. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT JURISDICTION AND VENUE IN ANY ACTION BROUGHT BY ANY PARTY PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL PROPERLY AND EXCLUSIVELY LIE IN SUCH COURTS. BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT, EACH PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND EXCLUSIVELY SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY WITH RESPECT TO SUCH ACTION. THE PARTIES IRREVOCABLY AGREE THAT VENUE WOULD BE PROPER IN SUCH COURT, AND HEREBY WAIVE ANY OBJECTION THAT SUCH COURT IS AN IMPROPER OR INCONVENIENT FORUM FOR THE RESOLUTION OF SUCH ACTION. THE PARTIES FURTHER AGREE THAT THE MAILING BY CERTIFIED OR REGISTERED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, OF ANY PROCESS REQUIRED BY ANY SUCH COURT SHALL CONSTITUTE VALID AND LAWFUL SERVICE OF PROCESS AGAINST THEM, WITHOUT NECESSITY FOR SERVICE BY ANY OTHER MEANS PROVIDED BY STATUTE OR RULE OF COURT. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT TO ANY PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

9.10 Delivery by Facsimile or Electronic Mail. This Agreement and any Transaction Document, and any amendments hereto or thereto, to the extent signed and delivered by means of a facsimile machine or digital imaging and electronic mail, shall be treated in all manner and respects as an original Contract and shall be considered to have the same binding legal effects as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person. At the request of any party hereto or to any such Contract, each other party hereto or thereto shall re-execute original forms thereof and deliver them to all other parties. No party hereto or to any such Contract shall raise the use of a facsimile machine or digital imaging and electronic mail to deliver a signature or the fact that any signature or Contract was transmitted or communicated through the use of a facsimile machine or digital imaging and electronic mail as a defense to the formation of a Contract and each such party forever waives any such defense.

9.11 Releases. The Seller (for itself and its heirs, assigns or executors) releases and forever discharges Buyer and all of its Subsidiaries (including the Company) and Affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, agents, equityholders and employees (the “Released Parties”) from any and all claims, suits, demands, causes of action, contracts, covenants, obligations, debts, costs, expenses, attorneys’ fees, liabilities of whatever kind or nature in law or equity, by statute, court order, stipulation or otherwise whether now known or unknown, absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, suspected or unsuspected, and whether or not concealed or hidden (collectively, “Claims”), which have existed or may have existed, or which do exist, through the date hereof of any kind, by reason of any matter, cause, act, omission or thing whatsoever existing or occurring prior to the Closing, except those Claims (i) arising under this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents, the transactions contemplated herein and therein, (ii) relating to fraud or intentional misrepresentation, (iii) arising under the 4302 Lease, as amended, (iv) any entitlement to salary or other compensation or benefits, earned or accrued by or for the benefit of the Seller (or its Affiliates) prior to the Closing in respect of services performed by the Seller (or its Affiliates) as an officer or employee of the Company, or (v) to be indemnified as an officer, director or employee of the Company under (a) the California Corporations Code, (b) the Company’s articles of incorporation or bylaws, or similar organizational documents and indemnification agreements, if any, or (c) any directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy maintained by the Company or its Affiliates. The Seller understands that this is a full and final release of all claims, demands, causes of action and liabilities of any nature whatsoever, whether or not known, suspected or claimed, that could have been asserted in any legal or equitable proceeding against the Released Parties by reason of any matter, cause, act, omission or thing whatsoever existing or occurring prior to the Closing, except as expressly set forth in this Section. The Seller represents that it is not aware of any such claim, lien or cause of action. To the extent permitted by law, the Seller expressly waives all rights afforded by any statute which limits the effect of a release with respect to unknown claims, including, without limitation, California Civil Code Section 1542, which provides:

A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE WHICH, IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER, MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.

The Seller understands the significance of its release of unknown claims and its waiver of statutory protection against a release of unknown claims.

Such released claims include, without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing language, any and all claims of employment discrimination under any local, state, or federal law or ordinance, including, without limitation, Title VII or the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended; the Civil Rights Act of 1991; or the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended; the Equal Pay Act of 1963, as amended; the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990; the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993; the Civil Rights Act of 1966, as amended; the Worker Adjustment Retraining and Notification Act; the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974; any applicable Executive Order Programs; the Fair Labor Standards Act; or their state or local counterparts; or under any public policy, contract or tort, or under common law; or arising under any policies, practices or procedures of the Company; or any claim for wrongful discharge, breach of contract, infliction of emotional distress, defamation; or any claim for costs, fees, or other expenses, including attorneys’ fees incurred in these matters. The Seller, if applicable, shall cause his spouse to join in any applicable releases as may be reasonably requested by Buyer.

9.12 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, this Agreement is for the sole benefit of the Parties, their heirs, legal guardians and their successors and permitted assigns and nothing herein expressed or implied shall give or be construed to give to any person, other than the Parties, their heirs, legal guardians, successors and permitted assigns, any legal or equitable rights hereunder.

9.13 Incorporation of Appendices, Exhibits and Schedules. The appendices, exhibits and schedules identified in this Agreement are incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof.

9.14 Guarantee. Guarantor is executing this Agreement to guarantee the performance of the Seller. Guarantor guarantees, irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally, in favor of Buyer that the Seller shall fully, completely and timely pay and perform all of the Seller’s obligations under this Agreement and the Transaction Documents (the “Guaranteed Obligations”). If the Seller fails or refuses to pay or perform any Guaranteed Obligation when due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof, Guarantor shall, upon the written request of Buyer, immediately pay or perform such obligations, as applicable. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that (i) in connection with certain of the Guaranteed Obligations (including those arising under Section 7.2(a) and Section 8.1(c)(ii)), as provided herein (including Sections 7.5(a)), Buyer is required to first satisfy such Guaranteed Obligations from the Indemnification Escrow Amount in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, until the Indemnification Escrow Amount is exhausted or released pursuant thereto, and (ii) Guarantor is and shall be entitled to the same benefits as the Seller described in the foregoing clause (i). The obligations of Guarantor hereunder shall be continuing, absolute and unconditional and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, shall not be released, discharged or otherwise affected by any of the following: (a) any modification, amendment, restatement, waiver or rescission of, or any consent to the departure from, any of the terms of this Agreement approved by the Seller; (b) except as expressly stated herein, any exercise or non-exercise by Buyer of any right or privilege under this Agreement or any notice of such exercise on non-exercise; (c) any extension, renewal, settlement, compromise, waiver or release in respect of any Guaranteed Obligation, by operation of law or otherwise, to the extent approved by or applicable to the Seller, or any assignment of any Guaranteed Obligation by Buyer; (d) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of the Seller; (e) any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting the Seller or its assets or any resulting release or discharge of any Guaranteed Obligation; (f) the existence of any defense, set-off or other rights (other than a defense of payment or performance) that Guarantor may have at any time against the Seller, whether in connection herewith or any unrelated transactions; or (g) any other act or failure to act or delay of any kind by the Seller or, prior to the Closing, the Company. This Section 9.14 shall continue to be effective, or be automatically reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment or performance, or any part thereof, of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored, returned or rejected by Buyer for any reason.
