The Closing Statement shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP or the Accounting Principles, as applicable. The parties agree that the purpose of preparing the Closing Statement and determining the amount of Closing Working Capital, Closing Indebtedness, Transaction Expenses and Closing Cash is to measure changes in the amount of Closing Working Capital, Closing Indebtedness, Transaction Expenses and Closing Cash, and such processes are not intended to permit the introduction of different judgments, accounting methods, policies, principles, practices, procedures, classifications or estimation methodologies for the purpose of preparing the Closing Statement or determining the amount of Closing Working Capital, Closing Indebtedness, Transaction Expenses and Closing Cash. During the Seller’s Representative’s review of the Closing Statement, Sellers’ Representative and/or its Agents shall have reasonable access to the books and records of the Companies, the personnel of, and work papers prepared by, Purchaser and/or Purchaser’s Agents to the extent that they relate to the Closing Statement as Sellers’ Representative and/or its Agents may reasonably request for the purpose of reviewing the Closing Statement and to prepare an Objection Notice (defined below), provided, that such access shall be in a manner that does not interfere with the normal business operations of Purchaser or the Companies.

(b) If Sellers’ Representative disagrees with the computation of the Cash Consideration reflected on the Closing Statement, Sellers’ Representative may, within thirty (30) calendar days after its receipt of the Closing Statement, deliver a notice (an “Objection Notice”) to Purchaser setting forth in reasonable detail the nature of any such disagreement, identifying those specific items and amounts that Sellers’ Representative disputes, to the extent practicable, and Sellers’ Representative calculation thereof. If no Objection Notice is delivered by Sellers’ Representative on or prior to the close of business on the last day of such thirty (30) day period, the Closing Statement and the calculations set forth therein shall be deemed accepted by Sellers’ Representative. If any Objection Notice is timely provided, Purchaser and Sellers’ Representative will use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve any disagreements set forth therein, but if they do not obtain a final resolution within fifteen (15) calendar days after Sellers’ Representative has delivered the Objection Notice (or such longer period as the parties may mutually agree to in writing), Purchaser and Sellers’ Representative will jointly retain Moss Adams LLP (the “Firm”) to resolve any remaining disagreements. Purchaser and Sellers’ Representative will direct the Firm

20

to render a determination within thirty (30) calendar days of its retention, and Purchaser, Sellers’ Representative and their respective employees or Agents will cooperate with the Firm during its engagement. Purchaser and Sellers’ Representative agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to execute, if requested by the Firm, a reasonable engagement letter mutually agreed upon by the parties. Purchaser and Sellers’ Representative shall instruct the Firm to consider only those items and amounts in the Closing Statement that are set forth in the Objection Notice which Purchaser and Sellers’ Representative are unable to resolve. Purchaser and Sellers’ Representative shall each submit a binder to the Firm promptly (and in any event within fifteen (15) calendar days after the Firm’s engagement), which binder shall contain such party’s computation of the disputed items (calculated in accordance with GAAP or the Accounting Principles, as applicable) and information, arguments and support for such party’s position. The Firm shall review such binders and base its determination solely on such binders in accordance with GAAP or the Accounting Principles, as applicable, and the definitions of applicable components of the Cash Consideration set forth herein. In resolving any disputed item, the Firm may not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by either party or less than the smallest value for such item claimed by either party. The Firm shall act as an arbitrator to determine such disputed items or amounts. All communications between a party and the Firm shall be in writing and shall be transmitted to the other party and neither Purchaser nor the Sellers’ Representative shall have ex parte communications with the Firm. The determination of the Firm shall be set forth in a written statement delivered to Purchaser and Sellers’ Representative and will be conclusive and binding upon Purchaser and Sellers’ Representative, absent fraud or manifest error. The date on which the Closing Statement and Cash Consideration are finally determined in accordance with this Section 2.04(b) is hereinafter referred to as the “Determination Date.”

(c) The cost of the determination of the disputed items by the Firm shall be borne by the Sellers’ Representative, on the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other hand, based on the percentage which the portion of the contested amount not awarded to each party bears to the amount actually contested by such party. For example, if closing accounts receivable is the only disputed item, Purchaser claims that closing accounts receivable is $1,000 less than the amount determined by the Sellers’ Representative, and the Sellers’ Representative contests only $500 of the amount claimed by Purchaser, and if the Firm ultimately resolves the dispute by awarding Purchaser $300 of the $500 contested, then the costs and expenses of the determination will be allocated 60% (i.e., 300 ÷ 500) to the Sellers’ Representative and 40% (i.e., 200 ÷ 500) to Purchaser.

Section 2.05 Post-Closing Adjustment. Promptly after the delivery of the Closing Statement and the determination of Closing Working Capital, Closing Indebtedness, Transaction Expenses and Closing Cash becomes final and binding on the parties under Section 2.04 above, the Cash Consideration shall be recalculated by giving effect to the final and binding Closing Working Capital, Closing Indebtedness, Transaction Expenses, Closing Cash, and the Aggregate Warrant Exercise Price (as recalculated, the “Final Cash Consideration”). If the Final Cash Consideration is greater than the Estimated Cash Consideration, within five (5) Business Days following the Determination Date, (a) Purchaser will pay to Sellers (by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account(s) and in the amounts designated by the Sellers’ Representative) an aggregate amount equal to the Final Cash Consideration minus the Estimated Cash Consideration and (b) Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative shall deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent to cause the Escrow Agent to make payment to Sellers from the

21

Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Account the full Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Amount (by wire transfers of immediately available funds to the accounts and in the amounts designated by the Sellers’ Representative). If the Final Cash Consideration is less than the Estimated Cash Consideration, within five (5) Business Days following the Determination Date, Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative shall deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent to cause the Escrow Agent to (x) pay to Purchaser from the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Amount, an amount equal to the Estimated Cash Consideration minus the Final Cash Consideration, and (y) distribute the remaining balance of the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Amount, if any, to Sellers (by wire transfers of immediately available funds to the accounts and in the amounts designated by the Sellers’ Representative). For the avoidance of doubt, (i) Sellers shall have no liability pursuant to this Section 2.05 in excess of the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Amount, and (ii) neither Parent, Purchaser nor any of the Companies shall have any responsibility or Liability to any Seller with respect to the allocation of any amounts by the Sellers’ Representative pursuant to this Section 2.05.

In the event that any amount is so deducted and withheld, it shall be properly remitted or otherwise accounted for with the applicable Governmental Authority.

Prior to deducting or withholding from any amounts payable to any Person (other than payments in the nature of compensation), such Person shall be given a reasonable opportunity to provide (or cause to be provided) a properly completed certificate or other documentary evidence establishing an exemption or reduction of withholding or deduction.

The Sellers’ Representative may distribute any or all of the Sellers’ Representative Holdback Amount from such account at any time in the manner directed by the Sellers’ Representative. For applicable Tax purposes, the Sellers’ Representative Holdback Amount shall be treated as having been received and voluntarily set aside by the Sellers at the time of the Closing. For the avoidance of doubt, neither Parent, Purchaser nor any of the Companies shall have any responsibility or Liability to any Seller with respect to the allocation of any amounts by the Sellers’ Representative pursuant to this Section 2.10.

(b) The parties hereto acknowledge that the covenants set forth in this Section 6.06 are an essential element of this Agreement and that, but for these covenants, the parties hereto would not have entered into this Agreement. The parties hereto acknowledge that this Section 6.06 constitutes an independent covenant and shall not be affected by performance or nonperformance of any other provision of this Agreement or any other document contemplated by this Agreement.

(c) It is the intention of the parties hereto that if any of the restrictions or covenants contained in this Section 6.06 is held to be for a length of time which is not permitted by applicable Law, or in any way construed to be too broad or to any extent invalid, such restrictions or covenants shall not be held to be null, void and of no effect, but to the extent such restrictions or covenants would be valid or enforceable under any applicable Law, if modified, a court of competent jurisdiction shall construe and interpret or modify this Section 6.06 to provide for a covenant having the maximum enforceable time period and scope that would be valid and enforceable under such applicable Law.

Section 6.07 Confidentiality.

(a) In addition to, and without limitation of, the terms, provisions and covenants of the Confidentiality Agreement, which remains in full force and effect, Parent and Purchaser acknowledge that, in the course of their investigation of the Business, Parent, Purchaser and their Agents have and will become aware of confidential information and documents of the Business, and that their use of such confidential information and documents, or communication of such information to third parties, could be detrimental to the Business. Parent and Purchaser covenant that prior to Closing all information and documents concerning the Business reviewed by Parent, Purchaser or their Agents in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be maintained in confidence and shall not be disclosed or used by Parent, Purchaser or their Agents without the Target’s prior written consent, unless such information is (i) otherwise publicly available without fault of Parent, Purchaser or their Affiliates, (ii) permitted to be disclosed or used pursuant to the Confidentiality Agreement, or (iii) required to be disclosed pursuant to any Law or Governmental Order applicable to Parent or Purchaser.

(b) Following the Closing, each Seller shall maintain, and shall cause its Affiliates to maintain, in confidence any information it or they may have in relation to the Business and such information shall not be disclosed or used by such Seller or its Affiliates without Purchaser’s prior written consent, unless such information is (i) otherwise publicly available through no breach by such Seller or its Affiliates of this Section 6.07(b) or (ii) required to be disclosed pursuant to any Law or Governmental Order applicable to such Seller or its Affiliates.

Section 6.08 Governmental Approvals and Other Third-Party Consents.

(a) Each party hereto shall, as promptly as possible, use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Law to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Transaction Documents, including using reasonable best

67

efforts to obtain, or cause to be obtained, all consents, authorizations, orders, approvals and other confirmations from all Governmental Authorities that may be or become necessary for its execution and delivery of this Agreement and the performance of its obligations pursuant to this Agreement. Each party shall cooperate fully with the other party and its Affiliates in promptly seeking to obtain all such consents, authorizations, orders, approvals and other confirmations. The parties hereto shall not willfully take any action that will have the effect of delaying, impairing or impeding the receipt of any required consents, authorizations, orders, approvals and other confirmations.

(b) Without limiting the generality of the parties’ undertakings pursuant to subsection (a) above, each of the parties hereto shall use all reasonable best efforts to:

(i) respond to any inquiries by any Governmental Authority regarding antitrust or other matters with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any other Transaction Documents;

(ii) avoid the imposition of any order or the taking of any action that would restrain, alter or enjoin the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or other Transaction Documents; and

(iii) in the event any Governmental Order adversely affecting the ability of the parties to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or other Transaction Documents has been issued, to have such Governmental Order vacated or lifted.

(c) All analyses, appearances, meetings, discussions, presentations, memoranda, briefs, filings, arguments, and proposals made by or on behalf of either party before any Governmental Authority or the staff or regulators of any Governmental Authority, in connection with the transactions contemplated hereunder (but, for the avoidance of doubt, not including any interactions between Sellers or the Companies with Governmental Authorities in the ordinary course of business, any disclosure which is not permitted by Law or any disclosure containing confidential information) shall be disclosed to the other party hereunder in advance of any filing, submission or attendance, it being the intent that the parties will consult and cooperate with one another, and consider in good faith the views of one another, in connection with any such analyses, appearances, meetings, discussions, presentations, memoranda, briefs, filings, arguments, and proposals. Each party shall give notice to the other party with respect to any meeting, discussion, appearance or contact with any Governmental Authority or the staff or regulators of any Governmental Authority, with such notice being sufficient to provide the other party with the opportunity to attend and participate in such meeting, discussion, appearance or contact.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, nothing in this Section 6.08 or Section 6.01 shall require, or be construed to require, Parent, Purchaser or any of their Affiliates to (i) agree to (A) sell, hold, divest, discontinue or limit, before or after the Closing Date, any assets, businesses or interests of Parent, Purchaser, any of the Companies or any of their respective Affiliates; (B) any conditions relating to, or changes or restrictions in, the operations of any such assets, businesses or interests which, in either case, could reasonably be expected to materially impact the economic or business benefits to Parent or Purchaser of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and other Transaction Documents;

68

or (C) any material modification or waiver of the terms and conditions of this Agreement; or (ii) litigate, pursue, defend, contest or otherwise resist any administrative or judicial action or order, by any Governmental Authority or private party, challenging the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or other Transaction Documents as violative of any applicable Laws.

(e) Sellers, the Target, Parent and Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to give all notices to, and obtain all consents from, all third parties that are described in Section 4.04 of the Disclosure Schedules; provided, however, that Sellers, the Target, Parent and Purchaser shall not be obligated to pay any consideration therefor to any third party from whom consent or approval is requested.

Section 6.09 Books and Records.

(a) Purchaser agrees (i) to hold all of the books and records of the Companies existing on the Closing Date and not to destroy or dispose of any thereof for a period of six (6) years from the Closing Date, or such longer period as may be relevant under any applicable Law and the relevant statute of limitations, and, thereafter, if it is proposed to destroy or dispose of any of such books and records, to offer first in writing at least sixty (60) days prior to such proposed destruction or disposition to surrender them to the Sellers’ Representative and (ii) at any time and from time to time following the Closing Date, to afford the Sellers’ Representative, its Affiliates and their respective Agents, during normal business hours, upon reasonable request, reasonable access to such books, records and other data (including the right to photocopy the same, at the expense of the Sellers’ Representative) and to appropriate employees; provided, that the Sellers’ Representative shall reimburse Purchaser promptly upon demand for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Purchaser in connection therewith; and provided, further, that nothing herein will limit any of the Sellers’ Representative’s rights of discovery in any event.

(b) For a period of six (6) years after the Closing, or such longer period as may be relevant under any applicable Law and the relevant statute of limitations, Sellers shall (i) retain the books and records of such Seller which relate to the Companies for periods prior to the Closing and which shall not otherwise have been delivered to Purchaser and (ii) upon reasonable notice, afford the employees, agents and Agents of Purchaser reasonable access (including the right to make photocopies, at the expense of Purchaser), during normal business hours, to such books and records, solely as they relate to the Companies; provided, that Purchaser shall reimburse any such Seller promptly upon demand for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by such Seller in connection therewith; and provided, further, that nothing herein will limit any of Purchaser’s rights of discovery in any event.

Section 6.10 Closing Conditions. From the date hereof until the Closing, each party hereto shall, and Sellers shall cause the Companies to, use commercially reasonable efforts to take such actions as are necessary to expeditiously satisfy the closing conditions set forth in Article VII hereof.

Section 6.11 R&W Insurance Policy. Prior to the Closing, Purchaser shall cause the Insurer to effectuate the R&W Insurance Policy (without any amendments, modifications or supplements to, or waivers of, the subrogation provisions thereof or any other provision that would have the effect of increasing the liability of any Seller under this Agreement). From and after the effectiveness of the R&W Insurance Policy, Purchaser shall not amend, modify, supplement or waive any provisions of the R&W Insurance Policy in a manner adverse to any Seller without the prior written consent of the Sellers’ Representative.

69

Section 6.12 Satisfaction of Indebtedness. The Closing Pay-Off Indebtedness shall be paid pursuant to Section 2.07(a) by Purchaser on the Closing Date out of the payments due hereunder. In furtherance thereof, the Sellers’ Representative shall deliver to Purchaser, no less than two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, one (1) or more customary pay-off letters and releases of Encumbrances, in each case in form reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser (provided, that (i) the pay-off letters for the Investor Structured Equity Notes (as defined in Section 4.04 of the Disclosure Schedules), including the pay-off of the management fees payable to Mosaic and True West and the termination of that certain Investment Agreement, dated as of December 31, 2015, by and among Mosaic, True West, 358 Capital, LLC, Dominic Engels and HFSN LLC, shall be substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F-1, (ii) the pay-off letters for the earn-out payable to HFSN LLC shall be substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F-2, and (iii) the pay-off letter for the Store Mortgage (as defined in Section 4.04 of the Disclosure Schedules), any releases or terminations necessary to release or terminate any and all Encumbrances related thereto and any and all other mortgage Encumbrances on Store’s interest in the Company Real Property, and the termination of the Store Mortgage and all agreements ancillary thereto, shall be in form reasonably acceptable to the Financing Sources), executed by the administrative agents, the lenders and secured parties, as applicable, under any Closing Pay-Off Indebtedness, in each case, setting forth all amounts necessary to be paid in order to fully discharge each such Closing Pay-Off Indebtedness (collectively, the “Pay-Off Letters”).

Section 6.13 Public Announcements. Unless otherwise required by applicable Law or stock exchange requirements (based upon the reasonable advice of counsel), no party to this Agreement shall make any public announcements in respect of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or otherwise communicate with any news media without the prior written consent of the other party, and the parties shall cooperate as to the timing and contents of any such announcement; provided, that the foregoing will not restrict or prohibit any party from making any announcement concerning this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby that consists of information consistent with the scope and substance of information previously disclosed in press releases, announcements or public filings made by Parent, Purchaser, or any of the Companies in compliance with this Section 6.13.

Section 6.14 Further Assurances. Following the Closing, each of the parties hereto shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, execute and deliver such additional documents, instruments, conveyances and assurances, and take such further actions as may be reasonably required to carry out the provisions hereof and give effect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

Section 6.15 Tax Matters.

(a) Intended Tax Treatment; Section 338(h)(10) Election.

(i) Purchaser and the Sellers agree that, for U.S. federal and applicable state and local income Tax purposes, the purchase and sale of the Shares and the Warrants are, in each case, intended to be treated as a taxable exchange described in Section 1001 of the Code that qualifies as a “qualified stock purchase” of the Shares within the meaning of Section 338(d)(3) of the Code.

70

(ii) Purchaser and the Share Seller shall make a joint election pursuant to Section 338(h)(10) of the Code on the Closing Date and any similar or corresponding election for U.S. state or local Tax purposes (the “Section 338(h)(10) Election”) with respect to the sale of the Shares. Purchaser shall prepare a draft IRS Form 8023 and any similar state or local forms required in connection with the Section 338(h)(10) Election (the “Section 338(h)(10) Election Forms”) and shall deliver drafts of the Section 338(h)(10) Election Forms to the Target no fewer than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date. The Target shall deliver original, properly completed and executed Section 338(h)(10) Election Forms to Purchaser on or prior to the Closing Date. The Share Seller shall execute (or cause to be executed) and deliver to Purchaser such additional or substitute documents or forms as are reasonably requested by Purchaser to complete the Section 338(h)(10) Election Forms at least ten (10) days prior to the date such documents or forms are required to be filed. Purchaser shall timely file or cause to be timely filed the Section 338(h)(10) Election Forms with the appropriate Governmental Authority. The Share Seller, Purchaser and the Target agree to cooperate (and cause their respective Affiliates to cooperate) in all respects for the purpose of effectuating a timely and effective Section 338(h)(10) Election, including the execution and filing of any Section 338(h)(10) Forms. Purchaser and the Share Seller agree that neither of them shall, or shall permit any of their Affiliates to, take any action on any Tax Return to modify or revoke the Section 338(h)(10) Election following the filing of the Tax Returns that implements the Section 338(h)(10) Election, without the prior written consent of the Share Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be.

(iii) Consistent with the Section 338(h)(10) Election, Purchaser shall prepare and deliver to the Sellers’ Representative within sixty (60) days after the determination of the Final Cash Consideration pursuant to Section 2.05, a draft allocation of the Final Cash Consideration (including assumed liabilities and any other amounts treated as taxable consideration for U.S. federal income Tax purposes) among the assets of the Target and its Subsidiaries in accordance with the principles of Section 338 and Section 1060 of the Code and the applicable Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, and, in the case of the Georgia Company, Section 755 of the Code and the applicable Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Section 338(h)(10) Allocation Schedule”). The Sellers’ Representative shall deliver its objections (if any), to Purchaser in writing no later than thirty (30) days after the Sellers’ Representative’s receipt thereof; provided, that if the Sellers’ Representative does not provide any objections to Purchaser in witting within such thirty (30) day period, the Section 338(h)(10) Allocation Schedule prepared by Purchaser shall be deemed accepted by the Sellers’ Representative and shall become final. In the event that the Sellers’ Representative delivers any written objections during such thirty (30) day period, Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such dispute, and, if agreed, Purchaser shall deliver to the Sellers’ Representative a copy of the final agreed Section 338(h)(10) Allocation Schedule. If, after good faith negotiations, Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative are unable to resolve any such dispute, the parties shall submit such dispute for resolution by the Firm, whose determination shall be final and binding on Purchaser and the Share Seller. The fees, costs, and expenses of the services of the Firm shall be allocated between Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Share Seller, on the other hand, by the Firm in inverse proportion to the respective percentages of the dollar value of the disputed items determined in favor of Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Sellers, on the other hand. Any adjustments to the Final Cash Consideration shall be allocated in a manner consistent with the finally determined Section 338(h)(10) Allocation Schedule.

71

(iv) The Share Seller, Purchaser and the Target shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, file all Tax Returns, including IRS Form 8883, in a manner consistent with this Section 6.15(a) except as otherwise required by a final determination within the meaning of Section 1313 of the Code; provided, that nothing in this Section 6.15(a) shall impede the ability of the Share Seller, Purchaser, the Target or any of their respective Affiliates to negotiate, compromise and/or settle any Tax audit, claim or similar proceeding relating to the Section 338(h)(10) Allocation Schedule.

(b) Tax Returns; Straddle Period Allocation; Cooperation.

(i) Purchaser shall prepare and timely file all Tax Returns that are filed after the Closing Date with respect to the Companies, and shall duly and timely pay all Taxes shown to be due and owing on such Tax Returns; provided, that all such Tax Returns shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past practice of the Companies, except as otherwise required by applicable Law or an intervening change in facts. With respect to any income Tax Return of any of the Companies for a Pre-Closing Tax Period (including a Straddle Period) that is filed prior to the finalization of the calculation of Closing Indebtedness pursuant to Section 2.04 and which shows an amount due and owing thereon, Purchaser shall provide a copy of any such Tax Return to the Sellers’ Representative’s for its review and comment at least ten (10) days prior to the due date for filing such Tax Return (after taking into account extensions therefor), and Purchaser shall incorporate any reasonable comments provided by the Sellers’ Representative with respect to any such Tax Return.

(ii) Purchaser and the Sellers hereby agree that the taxable year of the Target shall terminate for U.S. federal income tax purposes at the end of the day on the Closing Date under Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-76(b)(1)(ii)(A)(1) as a result of the purchase of the Shares hereunder. To the extent permitted at a “more-likely-than-not” (or greater) level of comfort under applicable Law, any and all deductions for (i) expenses with respect to the Indebtedness being paid by or on behalf of Sellers or the Companies in connection with the Closing, and (ii) all Transaction Expenses being paid by or on behalf of Sellers or the Companies prior to or in connection with the Closing (such deduction described in clauses (i) and (ii), the “Transaction Tax Deductions”) shall be treated for income Tax purposes as having been incurred by Sellers or the Companies in, and reflected as a deduction on the income Tax Returns of Sellers or the Companies for the taxable period (or portion thereof) ending on or prior to the Closing Date.

(iii) With respect to the preparation of any income Tax Returns of the Georgia Company for its taxable year that includes the Closing Date, the parties agree (A) to use the “interim closing method” (and the “calendar day convention”) pursuant to Section 706 of the Code (and any similar provision of state, local or foreign Law) to account for any varying interests in the Georgia Company and (B) to make timely elections under Section 754 of the Code (and any similar provision of state, local or foreign Law) on the income Tax Returns of the Georgia Company (if such election is not already in effect, in which case, such election shall be maintained).

72

(iv) For purposes of allocating any Taxes (other than Transfer Taxes) arising in a Straddle Period between the Pre-Closing Tax Period and the Post-Closing Tax Period for purposes of this Agreement, (i) in the case of any Taxes based upon or related to income, receipts or payroll, such Taxes of any Company shall be allocated between the Pre-Closing Tax Period and the Post-Closing Tax Period by closing the books as of the effective time on the Closing Date and (ii) in the case of any Taxes other than Taxes based upon or related to income, receipts or payroll, be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire taxable period, the amount of such Taxes that are allocated to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or Post-Closing Tax Period, as the case may be, shall be determined by multiplying (A) the amount of such Taxes for the entire Straddle Period by (B) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the Pre-Closing Tax Period or Post-Closing Tax Period, as the case may be, and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire Straddle Period.

(v) Each of Purchaser, the Sellers’ Representative and the Sellers shall provide the other party with such assistance as may reasonably be requested by the other party in connection with the preparation of any Tax Return, any audit or other Tax examination by any Governmental Authority, any Tax refund claim (including in respect of employee retention credits), or any judicial or administrative proceedings related to liability for Taxes, and each will retain and provide the requesting party with any records or information which may be relevant to such return, audit or examination, refund claim, proceedings or determination. Any information obtained pursuant to this Section 6.15(b)(v) or pursuant to any other Section hereof providing for the sharing of information or review of any Tax Return or other schedule relating to Taxes shall be kept confidential by the parties hereto, except as necessary to be disclosed in connection with such return, audit or examination, refund claim, proceedings or determination.

(c) Tax Claims.

(i) After the Closing and until the RWI Indemnity Escrow Funds are released in accordance with this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, Purchaser, the Companies and their respective Affiliates shall promptly notify the Sellers’ Representative in writing upon receiving notice from any Governmental Authority of the commencement of any claim, audit, examination, or administrative or court proceeding relating to any Taxes of the Companies or any Tax Return filed by any of the Companies (a “Tax Claim”) for a Pre-Closing Tax Period or a Straddle Period; provided, that no failure or delay in notifying the Sellers’ Representative shall relieve the Sellers from any obligation hereunder except to the extent that they are actually and materially prejudiced as a result of such failure to delay.

(ii) Purchaser shall control the conduct of any Tax Claim; provided, that, solely with respect to any Tax Claim that relates to a Pre-Closing Tax Period and only until the earlier of (1) the time that the RWI Indemnity Escrow Funds are released in accordance with this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement and (2) the time that the amount of outstanding claims for indemnification under Section 8.02 exceed the remaining RWI Indemnity Escrow Funds, Purchaser shall: (A) permit the Sellers’ Representative to participate (at the Sellers’ own expense) in such Tax Claim, (B) provide the Sellers’ Representative with a timely and reasonably detailed account of each phase of such Tax Claim, (C) reasonably consult with the Sellers’ Representative and offer the Sellers’ Representative a reasonable opportunity to comment before submitting any written materials prepared or furnished in connection with such Tax Claim and (D) not settle such Tax Claim with first obtaining the Sellers’ Representative’s prior written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

73

(iii) In connection with a Tax Claim that relates to an income Tax Return of the Georgia Company, Purchaser, the Sellers and the Sellers’ Representative agree to: (A) cause either the “partnership representative” or “designated individual” (within the meaning of Section 6223 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder or any similar provision under any state or local Law), to make the election provided for in Section 6226 of the Code (or any similar state or local Law), (B) file any statements or take any other actions required by applicable Law in order to make any such election with respect to any “imputed underpayment” within the meaning of Section 6225 of the Code (or any similar provision of any state or local Law) arising in connection with any such Tax Claim, (C) provide each other with any information necessary to make the election described in clause (A) or file any statements or take any actions contemplated by the preceding clause (B), and (D) not make, or permit the Georgia Company to make, any election to cause the Partnership Audit Rules to apply to any taxable period of the Georgia Company ending prior to January 1, 2018, including by making an election under Treasury Regulations Section  ###-###-####-22 (or any similar provision of state or local Law).

(iv) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, this Section 6.15(c) shall control with respect to any Tax Claim.

(d) Transfer Taxes. All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration, value added and other such Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with this Agreement, including the transfer of the Shares, the actual or deemed sale of any assets, the payment or transfer of any Liabilities (including any lease obligations) and the other Transaction Documents (other than the Georgia C-Corporation SPA), including any real property transfer Tax and any other similar Tax (collectively, “Transfer Taxes”), shall be borne and paid equally by Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Sellers, on the other hand; provided, that Purchaser’s sole recourse for the Sellers’ share of any such Transfer Taxes shall be the indemnification provided by Section 8.02(c). Purchaser, the Sellers and the Sellers’ Representative shall (i) cooperate in the timely filing of any Tax Return with respect to Transfer Taxes, or other document with respect to such Taxes or fees, and (ii) take any actions to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any Transfer Taxes.

(e) Pre-Closing Tax Matters. Without the prior written consent of the Sellers’ Representative (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and until the earlier of (1) the time that the RWI Indemnity Escrow Funds are released in accordance with this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement and (2) the time that the amount of outstanding claims for indemnification under Section 8.02 exceed the remaining RWI Indemnity Escrow Funds, neither Purchaser nor the Companies or any of their Affiliates shall, with respect to the Companies, (i) file or amend or otherwise modify any Tax Return that relates to a Pre-Closing Tax Period (other than to file Tax Returns in accordance with Section 6.15(b)), (ii) make or change any election for, or that has retroactive effect to, any Pre-Closing Tax Period (other than the Section 338(h)(10) Election or any other elections specifically contemplated by this Agreement), (iii) settle, voluntarily approach, enter into voluntary disclosure agreement with, or file any ruling request with any taxing authority with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period, (iv) extend or waive the statute of limitations with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period (other than as a result of obtaining

74

an extension of time to file a Tax Return) or (v) cause any Company to engage in a transaction on the Closing Date, but after the Closing, that is outside the ordinary course of business, in each case, if such action would (A) increase the amount of Taxes payable by any of the Sellers or (B) create or increase any indemnification obligation hereunder.

(f) Adjustments for Tax Purposes. Any payments made pursuant to Article II and any indemnification payments made pursuant to Article VIII shall, in each case, be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price by the parties for Tax purposes, unless a different treatment is otherwise required by applicable Law.

Section 6.16 No Solicitation of Other Bids. From the date hereof until the earlier of the Closing Date or the date that this Agreement is terminated, Sellers shall not, and Sellers shall not authorize or permit any of their Affiliates or Agents to, directly or indirectly, (i) encourage, solicit, initiate, facilitate or continue inquiries regarding an Acquisition Proposal; (ii) enter into discussions or negotiations with, or provide any information to, any Person concerning a possible Acquisition Proposal; or (iii) enter into any agreements or other instruments (whether or not binding) regarding an Acquisition Proposal. Sellers shall immediately cease and cause to be terminated, and shall cause their Affiliates and all Agents of any Seller or any Affiliate thereof to immediately cease and cause to be terminated, all existing discussions or negotiations with any Persons conducted heretofore with respect to, or that could lead to, an Acquisition Proposal. For purposes hereof, “Acquisition Proposal” shall mean any proposal or offer from any Person (other than Parent, Purchaser or any of their Affiliates) concerning a merger, consolidation, share exchange or other business combination transaction involving the Target, or the sale, exchange or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Target’s properties or assets.

Section 6.17 Affiliate Agreements. Effective as of immediately prior to the Closing, Sellers shall cause all Contracts or other transactions between any Seller or its Affiliates (other than any Company or the Georgia C-Corporation), on the one hand, and any Company or the Georgia C-Corporation, on the other set forth in Section 6.17 of the Disclosure Schedules to be settled or terminated prior to the Closing without any liability on the part of Parent, Purchaser or any of their Affiliates including the Companies and the Georgia C-Corporation (including liability arising from such termination), except for this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

Section 6.18 Conflicts; Privilege. It is acknowledged by each of the parties hereto that certain Sellers and the Companies have retained McGuireWoods LLP (“McGuireWoods”) to act as their counsel in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and that McGuireWoods has not acted as counsel for any other Person in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and that no other party to this Agreement has the status of a client of McGuireWoods for conflict of interest or any other purposes as a result thereof. Parent and Purchaser hereby agree that, in the event that a dispute arises between Parent, Purchaser or any of their Affiliates (including, after the Closing, any Company), on the one hand, and any Seller or any of its Affiliates, on the other hand, McGuireWoods may represent such Seller or any such Affiliate in such dispute even though the interests of such Seller or such Affiliate may be directly adverse to Parent, Purchaser or any of their Affiliates (including, after the Closing, any Company), and even though McGuireWoods may have represented the Companies in a matter substantially related to such dispute, or may be handling ongoing matters for the Companies, Parent, Purchaser and the Companies, on behalf of themselves and each of their Affiliates, (a) hereby waive any claim they

75

have or may have that McGuireWoods has a conflict of interest in connection with or is otherwise prohibited from engaging in such representation and (b) agree that, in the event that a dispute arises after the Closing between Parent, Purchaser or any of their Affiliates (including, after the Closing, the Companies) and any Seller, McGuireWoods may represent any such party in such dispute even though the interests of any such party may be directly adverse to Parent, Purchaser or any of their Affiliates (including, after the Closing, the Companies), and even though McGuireWoods may have represented the Companies in a matter substantially related to such dispute, or may be handling ongoing matters for Parent, Purchaser or the Companies. Parent and Purchaser further agree that, as to all communications among McGuireWoods and any Seller that relate in any way to the transactions contemplated hereby, the attorney-client privilege, the expectation of client confidence and all other rights to any evidentiary privilege belong to such Seller and may be controlled by such Seller and shall not pass to or be claimed by Parent, Purchaser or any Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a dispute arises between Parent, Purchaser or any Company and a third party other than a party to this Agreement after the Closing, such Company may assert the attorney-client privilege to prevent disclosure of confidential communication by McGuireWoods to such third party; provided, however, that such Company may not waive such privilege without the prior written consent of Sellers. Sellers, Parent and Purchaser further agree that McGuireWoods and its partners and employees are third-party beneficiaries of this Section 6.18.

Section 6.19 Certain Privileged and/or Confidential Communications.

(a) For purposes of this Section 6.19, the term “Privileged and/or Confidential Communications” means any communication, whether written or oral, electronic or otherwise:

(i) to or from any Seller or any officer, director, employee or agent of any Company, McGuireWoods, the Companies’ and any Seller’s accountants, the Companies’ and any Seller’s financial advisors, or any other advisor to any Company or any Seller, on the one hand, and any of the foregoing Persons, on the other hand, in all cases, to the extent that such communication (A) is not also to or from any officer, director, employee or agent of Parent or Purchaser, legal counsel to Parent or Purchaser, or any other advisor to Parent or Purchaser, and (B) arises out of or relates to (1) the preparation, negotiation and execution of this Agreement or any other agreement or document executed in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, or (2) any transaction that any Seller or any Company may have considered as an alternative transaction to the transactions contemplated hereby; or

(ii) to or from any Seller or any officer, director, employee or agent of any Seller or any Company, McGuireWoods, the Companies’ or any Seller’s accountants, the Companies’ or any Seller’s financial advisors, or any other advisor to any Company or any Seller, on the one hand, and any officer, director, employee, financial advisor, legal advisor, other advisor or Agents of any Person that any Seller or any Company may have considered in connection with an alternative transaction to the transactions contemplated hereby, on the other hand.

(b) Notwithstanding that the transactions contemplated hereby constitute a sale of the equity interests of the Companies, neither any Company, Parent nor Purchaser shall succeed to the Privileged and/or Confidential Communications. Sellers shall succeed to the Privileged and/or Confidential Communications.

76

(e) As used in this Article VIII, an “intentional breach” means an intentional action or intentional failure to act where the breaching party had actual knowledge that such action or failure to act was not permissible under this Agreement or other applicable Transaction Document. An “intentional breach” shall not apply to breaches of representations or warranties set forth in this Agreement.

Section 8.05 Procedures for Indemnification.

(a) No Seller Indemnifying Party shall be liable for any claim for indemnification under this Article VIII unless written notice of a claim for indemnification is delivered by the Purchaser Indemnified Party seeking indemnification to the Seller Indemnifying Party from whom indemnification is sought prior to the expiration of any applicable survival period set forth in Section 8.01 (in which event the claim shall survive until finally and fully resolved). If any third party notifies the Purchaser Indemnified Party with respect to any matter which may give rise to a claim for indemnification (a “Third Party Claim”) against the Seller Indemnifying Party under this Article VIII, then the Purchaser Indemnified Party shall notify the Seller Indemnifying Party reasonably promptly thereof in writing; provided, that no delay on the part of the Purchaser Indemnified Party in notifying the Seller Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Seller Indemnifying Party from any obligation hereunder except to the extent that the Seller Indemnifying Party is actually and materially prejudiced thereby. All notices given pursuant to this Section 8.05(a) shall describe with reasonable specificity the nature of the claim, the amount of the claim (to the extent then known) and the basis of the Purchaser Indemnified Party’s claim for indemnification.

88

(b) Following receipt of notice in accordance with Section 8.05(a) (other than a notice of a Third Party Claim against the Purchaser Indemnified Party, in which case Section 8.05(c) below shall apply), the Seller Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days from the date it receives such notice (the “Dispute Period”) to make such investigation of the claim as the Seller Indemnifying Party deems necessary or desirable. For purposes of such investigation, the Purchaser Indemnified Party shall make available to the Seller Indemnifying Party all the material information related to such claim relied upon by or in possession or control of, the Purchaser Indemnified Party; provided, that such Purchaser Indemnified Party shall not be required to violate any Governmental Order or any applicable Law to which it is subject or to waive any attorney-client privilege or work product doctrine which any of them may possess or that may otherwise apply to such information. If the Seller Indemnifying Party disagrees with the validity or amount of all or a portion of such claim made by the Purchaser Indemnified Party, the Seller Indemnifying Party shall deliver to the Purchaser Indemnified Party written notice thereof (the “Dispute Notice”) prior to the expiration of the Dispute Period. If no Dispute Notice is received by the Purchaser Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period or the Seller Indemnifying Party provides notice that it does not have a dispute with respect to such claim, such claim shall be deemed approved and consented to by the Seller Indemnifying Party (such claim, an “Approved Indemnification Claim”). If a Dispute Notice is received by the Purchaser Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period and the Purchaser Indemnified Party and the Seller Indemnifying Party do not agree to the validity and/or amount of such disputed claim, no payment shall be made until such disputed claim is resolved, whether by adjudication of such matter, agreement between the Purchaser Indemnified Party and the Seller Indemnifying Party, or otherwise (and upon any such resolution, such claim shall be deemed to be an Approved Indemnification Claim). Each Approved Indemnification Claim shall be paid by Sellers or Parent and Purchaser, as applicable, no later than five (5) Business Days after the date on which the subject claim became an Approved Indemnification Claim, in each case by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated in writing by the party entitled to such payment.

(c) After the Purchaser Indemnified Party has given notice of a Third Party Claim to the Seller Indemnifying Party pursuant to Section 8.05(a), the Seller Indemnifying Party may, at its election, undertake and conduct the defense of such Third Party Claim at its own expense; provided, that the Seller Indemnifying Party fully acknowledges in writing its indemnification obligations to the Purchaser Indemnified Party. In such case, the Purchaser Indemnified Party may continue to participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim. If the Seller Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, and unless (i) such settlement or consent to judgment does not impose or purport to impose any obligation or restriction on such Purchaser Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates or any action or restrictions upon the conduct of the businesses of the Purchaser Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates, (ii) the Purchaser Indemnified Party receives a full release of and from any other claims that may be made against the Purchaser Indemnified Party in connection with such Third Party Claim, (iii) the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the Seller Indemnifying Party, and (iv) there is no finding or admission of any violation by the Purchaser Indemnified Party of any applicable Law or any rights of any Person, the Seller Indemnifying Party shall not settle or consent to judgment with respect to such Third Party Claim without the written consent of the Purchaser Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Seller Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume the administration and defense of any Third Party Claim that involves any Material Customer or Material Supplier or if: (i) the Seller

89

Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim within thirty (30) days of the Purchaser Indemnified Party’s delivery of notice of such Third Party Claim to the Seller Indemnifying Party, (ii) the aggregate amount reasonably expected to be incurred in connection with such Third Party Claim and all other outstanding claims on the RWI Indemnity Escrow Funds exceeds 150% of the remaining amount of the RWI Indemnity Escrow Funds, (iii) such Third Party Claim involves criminal or quasi-criminal allegations, (iv) the Third Party Claim includes a claim for injunctive relief, or (v) any Seller is the Seller Indemnifying Party and (A) Purchaser or the Insurer is required to assume the defense of the Third Party Claim pursuant to the terms thereof or (B) any Seller’s assumption of the defense of the Third Party Claim would reasonably be expected to cause a Purchaser Indemnified Party to lose coverage under the R&W Insurance Policy. The Purchaser Indemnified Party and the Seller Indemnifying Party shall render to each other such assistance as may reasonably be required of each other in order to ensure proper and adequate defense of any Third Party Claim subject to this Section 8.05. To the extent that the Purchaser Indemnified Party or the Seller Indemnifying Party does not participate in the defense of a particular Third Party Claim, the Person so proceeding with such Third Party Claim shall keep the other Person informed of all material developments and events relating to such Third Party Claim. No Purchaser Indemnified Party shall settle or consent to judgment with respect to any Third Party Claim for which the Seller Indemnifying Party has provided a written acknowledgement of its indemnification obligations to the Purchaser Indemnified Party without the written consent of the Seller Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

Section 8.06 Sources of Recovery.

(a) Subject to the other applicable limitations of liability set forth in this Article VIII, all amounts payable by any Seller to any of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties pursuant to Sections 8.02(a) – (d) shall be paid first through distributions from the then remaining balance of RWI Indemnity Escrow Funds (if any) in accordance with this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement until the full deductible/retention amount applicable to the R&W Insurance Policy is satisfied in full; provided, that if a Purchaser Indemnified Party is entitled to be indemnified for Losses in the case of Fraud or intentional breach or pursuant to Section 8.02(b), such Purchaser Indemnified Party may elect to defer claiming such amounts from the RWI Indemnity Escrow Funds until the last day of the Escrow Claim Period, and second from the R&W Insurance Policy (if and to the extent covered thereby), and third directly from the Seller Indemnifying Parties pursuant to Section 8.06(c).

(b) All amounts payable by any Seller to any of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties pursuant to Section 8.02(e) shall be paid solely through distributions from the then remaining balance of the Special Indemnity Escrow Funds (if any) in accordance with this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement.

(c) The RWI Indemnity Escrow Funds shall be available to indemnify, compensate, and reimburse the Purchaser Indemnified Parties for any Losses for which they are entitled to recover in accordance with the terms of Sections 8.02(a) – 8.02(d), by release of funds to the Purchaser Indemnified Parties from the RWI Indemnity Escrow Account by the Escrow Agent pursuant to the procedures set forth in the Escrow Agreement.

90

(d) The Special Indemnity Escrow Funds shall be available to indemnify, compensate, and reimburse the Purchaser Indemnified Parties for any Losses for which they are entitled to recover in accordance with the terms of Section 8.02(e), by release of funds to the Purchaser Indemnified Parties from the Special Indemnity Escrow Account by the Escrow Agent pursuant to the procedures set forth in the Escrow Agreement.

(e) If a Purchaser Indemnified Party is entitled to be indemnified for Losses in the case of Fraud of the Target or intentional breach by the Target, or pursuant to Section 8.02(b) for a breach of a Seller Fundamental Representation by the Target, then such Purchaser Indemnified Party shall, subject to Section 8.06(a), be entitled to recover such Losses directly from the Seller Indemnifying Parties, and each Seller Indemnifying Party shall, subject to Section 8.04 and this Section 8.06, be liable for such Seller Indemnifying Party’s Equity Percentage of such Losses. If a Purchaser Indemnified Party is entitled to be indemnified for Losses in the case of Fraud of a Seller or intentional breach by a Seller, or pursuant to Section 8.02(b) for a breach of a Seller Fundamental Representation by a Seller, then such Purchaser Indemnified Party shall, subject to Section 8.06(a), be entitled to recover such Losses directly from such Seller, and such Seller shall, subject to Section 8.04 and this Section 8.06, be liable for the full amount of such Losses.

Section 8.07 Determination of Losses.

(a) Parent and Purchaser acknowledge and agree that no Seller shall have any Liability under this Article VIII for any Losses to the extent that such Losses are caused by or otherwise arise from any action (other than an action that is expressly permitted or required by this Agreement) taken by Parent, Purchaser or any of their Affiliates (including any Company) after the Closing. Parent, Purchaser and each Company, as the case may be, shall mitigate any Loss for which Parent and Purchaser could be entitled to indemnification under this Article VIII upon becoming aware of any event which would reasonably be expected to, or does, give rise thereto to the extent required by applicable Law, including incurring costs only to the minimum extent necessary to remedy the breach that gives rise to such Losses (which costs shall constitute Losses).

(b) Each Seller acknowledges and agrees that Parent and Purchaser shall not have any liability under this Article VIII for any Losses to the extent that such Losses are caused by or otherwise arise from any action (other than an action that is expressly permitted or required by this Agreement) taken by such Seller after the Closing. Each Seller shall mitigate any Losses for which such Seller could be entitled to indemnification under this Article VIII upon becoming aware of any event that would reasonably be expected to, or does, give rise thereto to the extent required by applicable Law, including incurring costs only to the minimum extent necessary to remedy the breach which gives rise to such Losses (which costs shall constitute Losses).

(c) The amount of any Losses for which indemnification is provided by the Seller Indemnifying Party to the Purchaser Indemnified Party under this Article VIII shall be net of (i) any accruals or reserves related to such Loss reflected on the Financial Statements, (ii) any amount for which a liability related to such Losses has been taken into account for purposes of the calculation of the Final Cash Consideration, (iii) any amounts that may be available to a Purchaser Indemnified Party pursuant to any indemnification by or indemnification agreement with any third party and (iv) any insurance proceeds or other cash receipts or sources of reimbursement that may be available to the Purchaser Indemnified Party in connection with such Losses, including the R&W Insurance

91

Policy (each source of recovery referred to in clauses (iii) and (iv), a “Collateral Source”), if any, attributable to such Losses; provided, that recovery from Collateral Sources other than the R&W Insurance Policy and shall be net of (x) any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) incurred by the Purchaser Indemnified Party, (y) any deductibles associated with the collection of such amounts and (z) any increases in insurance premium or other costs associated with collecting such amount; provided, that the Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall have no obligation to seek any such recovery, other than under the pre-Closing insurance policies of the Companies. If the amount to be netted hereunder in connection with a Collateral Source from any payment required under this Article VIII is determined after payment by the Seller Indemnifying Party of any amount otherwise required to be paid to a Purchaser Indemnified Party pursuant to this Article VIII, then the Purchaser Indemnified Party shall repay to the Seller Indemnifying Party, promptly after such determination, any amount that the Seller Indemnifying Party would not have had to pay pursuant to this Article VIII had such determination been made at the time of such payment.

Section 8.08 Election of Claims. In the event that any Purchaser Indemnified Party alleges that they are entitled to indemnification hereunder, and that Purchaser Indemnified Party’s claim is covered under more than one provision of this Agreement, such Purchaser Indemnified Party shall be entitled to elect the provision or provisions under which it may bring a claim for indemnification. In the case the state of facts giving rise to indemnification allows a Purchaser Indemnified Party to seek recovery for Losses under both Section 8.02(a), Section 8.02(b) or Section 8.02(c) of this Agreement and another subsection of Section 8.02 for which recovery under the R&W Insurance Policy is not available, such Purchaser Indemnified Party shall first bring such claim under Section 8.02(a), Section 8.02(b), or Section 8.02(c) and after exhaustion of the RWI Indemnity Escrow Funds, use commercially reasonable efforts to recover its Losses to the extent provided under the R&W Insurance Policy.

Section 8.09 Remedies Exclusive. Except (a) for remedies that cannot be waived as a matter of Law, (b) for specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies, or (c) in respect of claims based on Fraud or intentional breach, and without limiting any rights of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties under the R&W Insurance Policy, from and after the Closing, the indemnification provisions of this Article VIII shall be the sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims arising under this Agreement. For purposes of clarity, as between Purchaser, on the one hand, and the insurer under the R&W Insurance Policy, on the other hand, none of the terms, limitations, conditions and restrictions (including time for asserting claims) on indemnification set forth in this Article VIII shall affect the rights of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties under the R&W Insurance Policy, which rights shall be governed solely thereby.

Section 8.10 Claims Unaffected by Investigation. The rights of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties to indemnification or reimbursement available to any Purchaser Indemnified Party under this Article VIII shall not be impacted or limited by any investigation conducted or knowledge obtained by or on behalf of any Purchaser Indemnified Party. The parties hereby acknowledge that, regardless of any such investigation or diligence or knowledge, Parent and Purchaser have entered into this Agreement in express reliance upon the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of the Sellers and the Target in this Agreement.

In the event of any termination of the Agreement as provided in this Article IX, this Agreement shall forthwith become wholly void and of no further force and effect and there shall be no liability on the part of the Target, any Seller, the Sellers’ Representative, Parent or Purchaser, except that:

(a) the provisions of Section 6.07 (Confidentiality), this Article IX and Article XI (including the right to seek specific performance and other equitable remedies pursuant to Section 11.12) shall survive any such termination of this Agreement; and

94

(b) nothing herein shall relieve any party hereto from liability for any breach of any provision hereof.

(c) If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 9.01(i), then the Nonrefundable Advance Deposit shall automatically be forfeited by Purchaser and retained by the Target as a termination fee (the “Termination Fee”).

For the avoidance of doubt, other than for fraud or intentional breach by Purchaser or Parent, (1) under no circumstances will Parent or Purchaser be liable to any Person for monetary damages in excess of the Termination Fee (and any amounts payable to Target pursuant to Section 6.05(b)) in circumstances where the Nonrefundable Advance Deposit is automatically forfeited as the Termination Fee, and (2) while the Target may pursue both a grant of specific performance in accordance with Section 11.12 and the automatic forfeiture of the Nonrefundable Advance Deposit as the Termination Fee under Section 9.02(c), under no circumstances shall both the Sellers be permitted or entitled to receive a grant of specific performance pursuant to this Section 11.12 and the Target be permitted or entitled to retain the Nonrefundable Advance Deposit as the Termination Fee.

Section 10.02 Authorization. Notwithstanding Section 10.01, in the event that the Sellers’ Representative is of the opinion that it requires further authorization or advice from the Sellers on any matters concerning this Agreement, the Sellers’ Representative shall be entitled to seek such further authorization from the Sellers prior to acting on their behalf. In such event, each Seller shall vote in accordance with their respective Equity Percentages and the authorization of a majority of such Persons shall be binding on all of the Sellers and shall constitute the authorization of the Sellers. The appointment of the Sellers’ Representative is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable by any Seller in any manner or for any reason.

The Sellers’ Representative may resign from its position as the Sellers’ Representative at any time by written notice delivered to Parent, Purchaser, the Sellers.

Section 10.04 No Liability. All acts of the Sellers’ Representative hereunder in its capacity as such shall be deemed to be acts on behalf of the Sellers and not of the Sellers’ Representative individually. The Sellers’ Representative shall not have any liability for any amount owed to Parent or Purchaser by a Seller pursuant to this Agreement except to the extent funds are available from the Sellers’ Representative Holdback Amount.

The Sellers’ Representative may seek the advice of legal counsel in the event of any dispute or question as to the construction of any of the provisions of this Agreement or its duties hereunder, and it shall incur no liability in its capacity as the Sellers’ Representative to Parent, Purchaser, the Target or the Sellers and shall be fully protected with respect to any action taken, omitted or suffered by it in good faith in accordance with the advice of such counsel. The Sellers’ Representative shall not by reason of this Agreement have a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Seller, except in respect of amounts received on behalf of the Sellers.

96

Section 10.05 Expenses. Any expenses or taxable income incurred by the Sellers’ Representative in connection with the performance of its duties under this Agreement shall not be the personal obligation of the Sellers’ Representative but shall be payable by and attributable to the Sellers based on their respective Equity Percentages. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Sellers’ Representative shall be entitled and is hereby granted the right to set off and deduct any unpaid or non-reimbursed expenses and unsatisfied liabilities incurred by the Sellers’ Representative in connection with the performance of its duties hereunder from the Sellers’ Representative Holdback Amount or any amounts delivered to the Sellers’ Representative pursuant to this Agreement. The Sellers’ Representative may from time to time submit invoices to the Sellers covering such expenses and liabilities.

Section 10.06 Distributions. Any amounts distributed by the Sellers’ Representative pursuant to this Agreement to the Sellers shall be distributed pro rata in accordance with their respective Equity Percentage, net of the expenses of the Sellers’ Representative set off and deducted in accordance with Section 10.05; provided, however, that Sellers agree and acknowledge that (i) notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Article VIII, indemnification provided by the Sellers that is satisfied by the Escrow Amount shall be made in accordance with the Escrow Percentages, and (ii) any distributions from the RWI Indemnity Escrow Account, the Special Indemnity Escrow Account, the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Account, and the Sellers’ Representative Holdback Amount shall be made in accordance with the Escrow Percentages.

of any Company, or (c) the rights of any Released Party to indemnification from any Company under its Organizational Documents unless such claim for indemnification arises from or relates to a breach of a representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or indemnity made by such Company and/or such Releasing Party under any Transaction Document (without regard to time limitations set forth herein). Each Seller hereby represents and warrants to Parent and Purchaser that it has not voluntarily or involuntarily assigned, pledged, encumbered or in any manner transferred or conveyed all or any portion of the Released Claims and that no Person other than the Releasing Parties has any interest in any Released Claims by applicable Law or Contract or by virtue of any action or inaction by such party. Each Seller, for itself and the other Releasing Parties, hereby covenants and agrees not to sue any of the Released Parties with regard to any of the Released Claims. Each Seller stipulates and agrees that such Seller hereby expressly irrevocably, unconditionally and completely waives and relinquishes to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law any and all provisions, rights and benefits conferred by applicable Law of any state or territory of the United States, or principle of common law, relating to the preservation of unknown claims. For the purpose of implementing a full and complete release and discharge of the Released Parties, each Seller expressly acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement and this provision is in full accord, satisfaction, and discharge of any and all of such Released Claims and that this Agreement and this provision has been executed with the express intention of effectuating a complete extinguishment of all known and unknown claims. Each Seller hereby acknowledges that the inclusion of “unknown claims” in the Released Claims set forth above was separately bargained for and was a key element of the transactions contemplated by, and the covenants and agreements set forth in, this Agreement. Each Seller further waives any rights under Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of California, which states: A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS THAT THE CREDITOR OR RELEASING PARTY DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE AND THAT, IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER, WOULD HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR OR RELEASED PARTY.

Section 11.02 Expenses. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all costs and expenses, including, fees and disbursements of counsel, financial advisors and accountants, incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the party incurring such costs and expenses, whether or not the Closing shall have occurred. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent and Purchaser shall pay all filing fees related to filings required pursuant to the HSR Act, all premiums and amounts owed in respect of the R&W Insurance Policy, and $200,000 of the premium for the ESOP Fiduciary Policy pursuant to Section 2.07(i).

Section 11.04 Interpretation. For purposes of this Agreement: (a) the words “include,” “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”; (b) the word “or” is not exclusive; and (c) the words “herein,” “hereof,” “hereby,” “hereto” and “hereunder” refer to this Agreement as a whole. Unless the context otherwise requires, references herein: (x) to Articles, Sections, Disclosure Schedules and Exhibits mean the Articles and Sections of, and Disclosure Schedules and Exhibits attached to, this Agreement; (y) to an agreement, instrument or other document means such agreement, instrument or other document as amended, supplemented and modified from time to time to the extent permitted by the provisions thereof; and (z) to a statute means such statute as amended from time to time and includes any successor legislation thereto and any regulations promulgated thereunder. This Agreement shall be construed without regard to any presumption or rule requiring construction or interpretation against the party drafting an instrument or causing any instrument to be drafted. The Disclosure Schedules and Exhibits referred to herein shall be construed with, and as an integral part of, this Agreement to the same extent as if they were set forth verbatim herein.

100

Section 11.05 Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for reference only and shall not affect the interpretation of this Agreement.

Section 11.06 Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Agreement or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction. Except as provided in Section 6.06(c), upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

Section 11.07 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Confidentiality Agreement, and the other Transaction Documents constitute the sole and entire agreement of the parties to this Agreement with respect to the subject matter contained herein and therein, and supersede all prior and contemporaneous representations, warranties, understandings and agreements, both written and oral, with respect to such subject matter. In the event of any inconsistency between the statements in the body of this Agreement, the Confidentiality Agreement, and those in the other Transaction Documents, the Exhibits and Disclosure Schedules (other than an exception expressly set forth as such in the Disclosure Schedules), the statements in the body of this Agreement will control.

Section 11.08 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Neither party may assign its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement (and all rights, interests and obligations hereunder) may be assigned, in whole or in part, without consent of any Seller, the Sellers’ Representative or the Target, for collateral security purposes to any Persons providing financing to Purchaser (including the Financing Sources), including for purposes of creating a security interest herein or otherwise assigning Purchaser’s rights hereunder as collateral in respect of such financing. No assignment shall relieve the assigning party of any of its obligations hereunder.

Section 11.09 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is for the sole benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person or entity any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement, except (i) for the provisions of Article VIII, Section 6.05 (Director and Officer Indemnification and Insurance), and Section 6.18 (Conflicts; Privilege), which, in each case, are intended to be for the benefit of the Persons identified in such Article and Sections and may be enforced by such Persons, (ii) the Financing Sources shall be third-party beneficiaries of the provisions of Section 11.08, this Section 11.09, Section 11.10 and Section 11.11, and shall have the right to enforce the provisions thereof, to the extent expressly applicable to the Financing Sources, and (iii) the Financing Sources and the other Non-Recourse Parties shall be third-party beneficiaries of the provisions of Section 11.14, and shall have the right to enforce the provisions thereof, to the extent expressly applicable to the Financing Sources and such other Non-Recourse Parties.

101

Section 11.10 Amendment and Modification; Waiver. This Agreement may only be amended, modified or supplemented by an agreement in writing signed by Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative. No waiver by any party shall operate or be construed as a waiver in respect of any failure, breach or default not expressly identified by such written waiver, whether of a similar or different character, and whether occurring before or after that waiver. No failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege arising from this Agreement shall operate or be construed as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no amendments, modifications or supplements to, or waivers of, any provision of which any Financing Source is expressly made a third-party beneficiary pursuant to Section 11.09 shall be permitted in any manner materially adverse in any respect to any Financing Source without the prior written consent of such Financing Source.

Section 11.11 Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a) All matters arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal Laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule; provided, that each of the parties agrees that all claims or causes of action (whether at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise) against any of the Financing Sources in any way relating to the Debt Financing shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and governed by, the Laws of the State of New York, without giving regard to conflicts or choice of law principles that would result in the application of the Laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York.

(b) ANY LEGAL SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR BASED UPON THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY MAY BE INSTITUTED IN THE FEDERAL COURTS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA OR THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE IN EACH CASE LOCATED IN THE STATE OF DELAWARE, AND EACH PARTY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS IN ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING. SERVICE OF PROCESS, SUMMONS, NOTICE OR OTHER DOCUMENT BY MAIL TO SUCH PARTY’S ADDRESS SET FORTH HEREIN SHALL BE EFFECTIVE SERVICE OF PROCESS FOR ANY SUIT, ACTION OR OTHER PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT. THE PARTIES IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE ANY OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR ANY PROCEEDING IN SUCH COURTS AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVE AND AGREE NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM IN ANY SUCH COURT THAT ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the parties acknowledge and agree (i) that any action of any kind or description, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or tort or otherwise, involving the Financing Sources or arising out of or relating to the Debt Financing or the performance of services thereunder or related thereto will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of

102

the State of New York, County of New York (and the appellate courts thereof), or, if under applicable law exclusive jurisdiction is vested in the federal courts, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (and appellate courts thereof), and each party submits for itself and its property with respect to any such action to the exclusive jurisdiction of such court, (ii) not to bring or permit any of their Affiliates to bring or support any other Person in bringing any such action in any other court, (iii) that service of process, summons, notice or document by registered mail addressed to them at their respective addresses, if any, provided for notice purposes in any document relating to the Debt Financing will be effective service of process against them for any such action brought in any such court, (iv) to waive and hereby irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which any of them may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of, and the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of, any such action in any such court and (v) that a final judgment in any such action shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

(c) EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES AND, THEREFORE, EACH SUCH PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LEGAL ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (A) NO AGENT OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER IN THE EVENT OF A LEGAL ACTION, (B) SUCH PARTY HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER, (C) SUCH PARTY MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY, AND (D) SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 11.11(C).

Section 11.12 Specific Performance. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur if any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with the terms hereof and that monetary damages would not provide adequate remedy in such event. Accordingly, in addition to any other remedy to which a non-breaching party may be entitled at law, a non-breaching party shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief without the posting of any bond or other security to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions hereof, including Sellers’ obligation to sell the Shares and Warrants to Purchaser and Purchaser’s obligation to purchase the Shares and Warrants from the Sellers, and the breaching party waives the defense that an adequate remedy at law may exist. For the avoidance of doubt, under no circumstances shall both the Sellers be permitted or entitled to receive a grant of specific performance pursuant to this Section 11.12 and the Target be permitted or entitled to Target be permitted or entitled to retain the Nonrefundable Advance Deposit as the Termination Fee.

Section 11.13 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall be deemed to be one and the same agreement. A signed copy of this Agreement delivered by facsimile, e-mail or other means of electronic transmission shall be deemed to have the same legal effect as delivery of an original signed copy of this Agreement.

103

Section 11.14 Non-Recourse.

(a) This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claim, action, suit or other legal proceeding based upon, arising out of, or related to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement, may only be brought against the entities that are expressly named as parties in the preamble hereto and then only with respect to the specific obligations set forth herein with respect to such party. No Financing Source, and no past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, manager, member, partner, stockholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney or other Agents of any Financing Source or of any party hereto or of any Affiliate of any party hereto, or any of their successors or permitted assigns (each, a “Non Recourse Party”), shall have any liability for any obligations or liabilities of any party hereto under this Agreement or for any claim, action, suit or other legal proceeding based on, in respect of or by reason of the transactions contemplated hereby, including any negotiation, execution, performance, or breach of this Agreement or any other document relating to the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents.

(b) The provisions of this Section 11.14, together with the remedies specified in Article VIII and Article IX,, were specifically bargained for between Sellers and Purchaser and were taken into account by Sellers and Purchaser in agreeing to the amount of the Purchase Price, the adjustments thereto and the other terms and conditions hereof. Sellers and Purchaser have specifically relied upon the provisions of this Section 11.14, together with the remedies specified in Article VIII and Article IX, in agreeing to the Purchase Price, the adjustments thereto and the other terms and conditions hereof, including in agreeing to provide the specific representations and warranties set forth herein.

(c) Each of the parties is a sophisticated Person that was advised by experienced counsel and, to the extent it deemed necessary, other advisors in connection with this Agreement. The parties hereto have voluntarily agreed to define their rights, liabilities and obligations respecting the transactions contemplated hereby exclusively in Contract pursuant to the express terms and provisions of this Agreement; and the parties hereto expressly disclaim that they are owed any duties or are entitled to any remedies not expressly set forth in this Agreement. Furthermore, the parties each hereby acknowledge that this Agreement embodies the justifiable expectations of sophisticated parties derived from arm’s length negotiations; all parties to this Agreement specifically acknowledge that no party has any special relationship with another party that would justify any expectation beyond that of an ordinary buyer and an ordinary seller in an arm’s length transaction.
