(a)    Prior to the Closing, and subject to the provisions of this Agreement, Purchaser and US Seller shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain entry of an order or orders by the Bankruptcy Court pursuant to Sections 363 and 365 of the Bankruptcy Code (the “Sale Order”), which shall approve of this Agreement and the transactions described herein, and which shall be (1) in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser and (2) contain the following provisions in terms reasonably acceptable to the parties (it being understood that certain of such provisions may be contained in either the findings of fact or conclusions of law to be made by the Bankruptcy Court as part of the Sale Order):

(i)    that US Seller may sell, transfer and assign the Acquired Assets and assume and assign the Assigned Contracts to Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement and Bankruptcy Code, as applicable;

(ii)    the transfers of the Acquired Assets by US Seller to Purchaser (A) vest or will vest Purchaser with all right, title and interest of US Seller in and to the Acquired Assets, free and clear of all Liens (except for the Assumed Liabilities and Permitted Liens), and (B) constitute transfers for reasonably equivalent value and fair consideration under the Bankruptcy Code;

(iii)    the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are undertaken by Purchaser and US Seller at arm’s length, without collusion and in good faith within the meaning of Section 363(m) of the Bankruptcy Code, and the Purchaser and US Seller is entitled to the protections of Section 363(m) of the Bankruptcy Code;

(iv)    a determination that selling the Acquired Assets free and clear of all Liens is in the best interest of the US Seller’s Estate.

(b)    If the Sale Order or any other orders of the Bankruptcy Court relating to this Agreement shall be appealed by any person (or a petition for certiorari or motion for rehearing or reargument shall be filed with respect thereto), each party hereto agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain an expedited resolution of such appeal; provided, however, that nothing herein shall preclude the parties hereto from consummating the Transactions if the Sale Order shall have been entered and has not been stayed in which event Purchaser shall be able to assert the benefits of Section 363(m) of the Bankruptcy Code.

6.4    Overbid Procedures; Adequate Assurance.

(a)    US Seller and Purchaser acknowledge that this Agreement and the sale of the Acquired Assets by the US Seller is subject to Bankruptcy Court approval. Purchaser and US Seller acknowledge that the US Seller must take reasonable steps to demonstrate that it has sought to obtain the highest or otherwise best price for the Acquired Assets, including giving notice thereof to the creditors of the US Seller and other interested parties, providing information about the Business to prospective bidders, entertaining higher and better offers from such prospective bidders, and, in the event that additional qualified prospective bidders desire to bid for the Acquired Assets, conducting an auction (the “Auction”) for purposes of determining the highest or otherwise best price for the Acquired Assets. US Seller further acknowledges that “best price” may not necessarily equal the “highest price.”

(b)    The bidding procedures to be employed with respect to this Agreement and any Auction shall be those set forth in the Bidding Procedures Order. Purchaser agrees to be bound by and accept the terms and conditions of the Bidding Procedures Order as approved by the Bankruptcy Court. Purchaser agrees and acknowledges that the US Seller may continue soliciting inquiries, proposals or offers for the Acquired Assets in connection with any alternative transaction pursuant to the terms of the Bidding Procedures Order, and agrees and acknowledges that the bidding procedures contained in the Bidding Procedures Order may be supplemented by other customary procedures not inconsistent with the matters otherwise set forth therein and the terms of this Agreement, subject to advance notice to Purchaser to the extent practicable. For clarification, the US Seller and Purchaser agree that, subject to the Bidding Procedures Order, Purchaser shall have the right to participate in the Auction, and to change the terms and conditions of its bid in any and all overbid procedures.

(c)    If an Auction is conducted, and Purchaser is not the prevailing bidder at the Auction but is the next highest bidder at the Auction, Purchaser shall serve as a back-up bidder (the “Back-Up Bidder”) and keep Purchaser’s bid to consummate the Transactions on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement (as the same may be improved upon in the Auction) open and irrevocable, notwithstanding any right of Purchaser to otherwise terminate this Agreement pursuant to Article VII. Following the Sale Hearing, if the prevailing bidder in the Auction fails to consummate the Third-Party Sale as a result of a breach or failure to perform on the part of such prevailing bidder and the purchase agreement with such prevailing bidder is terminated, the Back-Up Bidder (as the next highest bidder at the Auction) will be deemed to have the new prevailing bid, and the US Seller will be authorized, without further order of the Bankruptcy Court, to consummate the Transactions on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement (as the same may be improved upon in the Auction) with the Back-Up Bidder so long as Purchaser has not previously terminated this Agreement in accordance with its terms.

(d)    Purchaser shall provide adequate assurance as required under the Bankruptcy Code of the future performance by Purchaser of each Assigned Contract. Purchaser agrees that it will, and will cause its Affiliates to, promptly take all actions reasonably required to assist in obtaining a Bankruptcy Court finding that there has been an adequate demonstration of adequate assurance of future performance under the Assigned Contracts, including furnishing affidavits, non-confidential financial information and other reasonable documentation or information for filing with the Bankruptcy Court and making Purchaser’s Representatives available to testify as to such adequate assurance before the Bankruptcy Court.

(e)    The US Seller and Purchaser agree, and relevant Bankruptcy Court filings shall reflect the fact that the provisions of this Agreement, including this Section and Section 6.5, are reasonable, were a material inducement to Purchaser to enter into this Agreement and are designed to achieve the highest and best price for the Acquired Assets.

(f)    Nothing in this Agreement, including this Section, shall require any director or officer of either Seller to violate their fiduciary duties to such Seller. No action or inaction on the part of any director or officer of either Seller that such director or officer reasonably believes is required by their fiduciary duties to such Seller shall be limited or precluded by this Agreement; provided, however, that no such action or inaction shall prevent Purchaser from exercising any termination rights it may have hereunder as a result of such action or inaction.

6.5    Expense Reimbursement; Break-Up Fee. Sellers acknowledge that Purchaser made a substantial investment of management time and incurred substantial out-of-pocket expenses in connection with negotiation and execution of the Agreement, its due diligence of the Business, the Acquired Assets and the Assumed Liabilities in Purchaser’s effort to consummate the Transactions contemplated hereby, and Purchaser’s efforts have substantially benefitted Sellers and will benefit the Sellers and the bankruptcy estate of the US Seller through the submission of the offer that is reflected in this Agreement and that will serve as the minimum bid as to which other potential bidders may rely, thus increasing the likelihood that the price at which the Acquired Assets are sold would be maximized. In consideration thereof, and as compensation for the value provided to Sellers sand the Estate of the US Seller, the Sellers agree to the following:

(a)    If (i) an Auction takes place and Purchaser is not identified as the Successful Bidder, (ii) at the time the Successful Bidder is identified, Purchaser is not in material breach of this Agreement (or, in the event that Purchaser is identified as the Back-Up Bidder, Purchaser is not in material breach of this Agreement at the time the Expense Reimbursement would otherwise be payable), (iii) Purchaser has not terminated this Agreement (other than in accordance with Section 7.1(d)), and (iv) any Alternative Transaction is consummated (collectively, the “Bid Protections Trigger”), then, Purchaser will be entitled to receive from Sellers, subject to an Order of the Bankruptcy Court authorizing such payment by the US Seller, an amount in cash equal to the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Purchaser in connection with its negotiation and consummation of the Transactions, which amount shall not exceed six hundred thousand dollars ($600,000) in the aggregate (the “Expense Reimbursement”).

(b)    In addition to any payments that may be due pursuant to Subsection (a) above, in the event of the occurrence of the Bid Protections Trigger, the Sellers shall also, and subject to an Order of the Bankruptcy Court authorizing such payment by the US Seller, pay to Purchaser a fee in an amount equal to three and a half percent (3.5%) of the Purchase Price (the “Break-Up Fee”).

(c)    If the Expense Reimbursement and the Break-Up Fee become payable pursuant to subsections (a) and (b) above, such Expense Reimbursement and payment of the Break-Up Fee shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Purchaser, and such payment shall be made on the closing date of any Alternative Transaction. The claim of Purchaser in respect of the Expense Reimbursement and the Break-Up Fee (which shall not require further Bankruptcy Court approval) shall survive termination of this Agreement and shall constitute a super-priority administrative expense claim, senior to all other administrative expense claims of Seller, as administrative expenses under Sections 503 and 507(b) of the Bankruptcy Code in the Bankruptcy Case (except those administrative expenses granted to the lenders under the Debtors’ post-petition debtor in possession financing facility and the adequate protection claims of the lenders under the pre-petition credit facilities).

(d)    For the avoidance of doubt, (i) no Expense Reimbursement or Break-Up Fee shall be payable, and Purchaser shall not seek payment of any Expense Reimbursement or Break-Up Fee, prior to consummation of a Third-Party Sale and (iii) in no event shall Seller be obligated to pay the Expense Reimbursement or Break-Up Fee on more than one occasion.

(e)    the US Seller shall file and seek entry of orders by the Bankruptcy Court approving the Expense Reimbursement and the Break-Up Fee as set forth herein.

(f)    Each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that: (i) the agreements contained in this Section are an integral part of the Transactions and this Agreement; (ii) the Break-Up Fee is not a penalty, but rather liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will reasonably compensate Purchaser in the circumstances in which such Break-Up Fee is payable for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone by Purchaser while negotiating and pursuing the Transactions and this Agreement and in reasonable reliance on this Agreement and on the reasonable expectation of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, which amount would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision; and (iii) the Break-Up Fee and Expense Reimbursement shall be Purchaser’s sole recourse in connection with this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements in the event this Agreement is terminated prior to the Closing.

6.6    Access to Facilities, Personnel, and Information.

(a)    Prior to the Closing, Sellers shall permit representatives of Purchaser to have reasonable access during regular business hours and upon reasonable notice, and in a manner so as not to interfere with the normal business operations of Sellers, to all premises, property, books, records (including Tax records), Contracts, and documents of or pertaining to the Business (provided that any representatives of Purchaser shall be subject to the confidentiality obligations under the Confidentiality Agreement or otherwise agree in writing to be bound by the terms of such Confidentiality Agreement applicable to Purchaser thereunder) and Acquired Assets. If requested, Purchaser shall be permitted to conduct a physical inspection of Inventory within 10 business days of the Closing.

(b)    From the Closing Date through and including the seventh (7th) anniversary of the Closing Date, Purchaser shall grant Sellers, the Trustee, and their respective representatives reasonable access to the books and records transferred to Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement during regular business hours and upon reasonable notice for the purpose of allowing Sellers or its successors, the Trustee or their respective representatives to perform the duties necessary for the liquidation of the Debtor’s Estate, in the case of the US Seller, or of the remaining assets of the Foreign Seller, in the case of the Foreign Seller. To the extent reasonably required by Sellers, Purchaser shall make one or more of the Transferred Employees available to each Seller to assist in such Seller’s wind-down of its Estate or the Foreign Seller, as applicable, provided that such access does not unreasonably interfere with the conduct of the Business by Purchaser.

6.7    Further Assurances. Purchaser and Sellers shall use commercially reasonable efforts to take such further actions and execute such other documents as may be reasonably required to fulfill the conditions to Closing and, after Closing, to fully effect the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements and further secure to each party the rights intended to be conferred hereby and thereby; provided, however, that nothing in this Section shall prohibit Sellers or their Affiliates from ceasing operations or winding up its affairs following the Closing. Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with Sellers and provide US Seller with information reasonably sufficient to enable Seller to

demonstrate adequate assurance of future performance (as required by Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code) as to Purchaser.

6.8    Employee Matters.

(a)    Purchaser reserves the right to make offers of employment with or to provide consulting services to Purchaser or an affiliate of Purchaser to certain employees of Seller, effective only as of the Closing, and subject to Purchaser’s right to interview such Seller employees and require successful completion of customary employee background checks and drug testing prior to offering employment to any such employee (such employees who are hired or retained by Purchaser or an affiliate, the “Transferred Employees”). Within two (2) Business Days following entry of the Sale Order finding Purchaser as the prevailing bidder at the Auction, Purchaser shall begin interviews with Seller employees for the purpose of determining whether to offer such Seller employees post-Closing employment or the opportunity to provide post-Closing consulting services. Seller shall terminate the employment of all Transferred Employees as of immediately prior to the Closing and reasonably assist Purchaser in effecting the change of employment or service of the Transferred Employees as of the Closing in an orderly fashion. Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement are not conditioned upon any particular employees agreeing to employment with or to provide consulting services to Purchaser. All claims and liabilities, of whatever nature, arising from any relationship between the Seller (and its affiliates), on the one hand, and any of the Transferred Employees, on the other hand, including any unpaid compensation and several obligations, shall be the sole responsibility of the Seller. The parties acknowledge that Seller may choose to send WARN Act notices to some or all of the employees of the Seller and its subsidiaries, at any time deemed appropriate by the Seller.

(b)    Nothing in this Agreement shall constitute any commitment, Contract or understanding (expressed or implied) of any obligation on the part of Purchaser to a post-Closing employment relationship of any fixed term or duration or upon any terms or conditions other than those that Purchaser may establish pursuant to individual offers of employment. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to prevent or restrict in any way the right of Purchaser to terminate, reassign, promote or demote any of the Transferred Employees after the Closing or to change adversely or favorably the title, powers, duties, responsibilities, functions, locations, salaries, future benefits, other compensation or terms or conditions of Purchaser’s employment of such employees.

(c)    If any of the arrangements described in this Section are determined by any Governmental Body to be prohibited by applicable Law, Purchaser and Seller shall modify such arrangements to as closely as possible reflect their expressed intent and retain the allocation of economic benefits and burdens to the parties contemplated herein in a manner that is not prohibited by applicable Law.

(d)    Notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary, nothing contained herein, whether express or implied, shall be treated as an amendment or other modification of any Employee Benefit Plan or employee benefit plan maintained by Purchaser or any of its affiliates, or shall limit the right of Purchaser to amend, terminate or otherwise modify any Employee Benefit Plan or employee benefit plan maintained by Purchaser or any of its affiliates following the Closing Date. If (i) a party other than the parties hereto makes a claim or takes other action to enforce any provision in this Agreement as an amendment to any Employee Benefit Plan or employee benefit plan maintained by Purchaser or any of its affiliates, and (ii) such provision is deemed to be an amendment to such Employee Benefit Plan or employee benefit plan maintained by Purchaser or any of its affiliates even though not explicitly designated as such in this Agreement, then, solely with respect to the Employee Benefit Plan or employee

benefit plan maintained by Purchaser or any of its affiliates at issue, such provision shall lapse retroactively and shall have no amendatory effect with respect thereto.

6.9    Tax Matters.

(a)    All sales, use, transfer, stamp, conveyance, value added or other similar Taxes, duties, excises or governmental charges imposed by any Tax authority, domestic or foreign, and all recording or filing fees, notarial fees and other similar costs of Closing (“Transfer Taxes”) will be borne by Purchaser and the Purchase Price is exclusive of Transfer Taxes. All unpaid Pre-Closing Taxes shall be borne by the Seller. If any Seller is required by Law to collect any Transfer Taxes from Purchaser, Purchaser shall pay such Transfer Taxes to the applicable Seller concurrent with the payment of any amount payable pursuant to this Agreement. The applicable Seller shall remit all Transfer Taxes to the relevant Governmental Body in accordance with applicable Law. If Purchaser is required to collect any Transfer Taxes from either Seller or such Seller has not paid any Transfer Taxes it is obligated to pay, such Seller shall pay such Transfer Taxes to the Purchaser concurrent with the payment of any amount payable pursuant to this Agreement, or Purchaser may deduct such Transfer Taxes from the Closing Cash (the “Sellers’ Transfer Tax Reimbursement”).

(b)    Purchaser and Seller shall negotiate in good faith, on or prior to the Closing Date, an allocation of the Purchase Price among the Acquired Assets. Purchaser and Seller shall each file all Tax returns (and IRS Form 8594, if applicable) on the basis of such agreed upon allocation, as it may be amended, and no party shall thereafter take a Tax return position inconsistent with such allocation unless such inconsistent position shall arise out of or through an audit or other inquiry or examination by the Internal Revenue Service or other Governmental Body responsible for Taxes.

(c)    For purposes of this Agreement, with respect to Taxes attributable to any taxable year or other taxable period beginning before and ending on or after the Closing Date, (i) Taxes imposed on a periodic basis in respect of the Acquired Assets (such as property taxes) shall be allocated between the Pre-Closing Tax Period and the Post-Closing Tax Period pro rata on the basis of the number of days in such period, and (ii) Taxes (other than periodic Taxes) in respect of the Acquired Assets for the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be computed as if such taxable period ended as of the end of day before the Closing Date.

(d)    If applicable, Canadian Seller and Purchaser shall, as soon as possible after the Closing Date, jointly execute an election in prescribed form under section 22 of the Income Tax Act (Canada) with respect to the sale of the Accounts Receivable and shall designate therein the portion of the Purchase Price allocated to the Accounts Receivable from Canadian Seller in the allocation provided for in Section 6.9(b) as consideration paid by Purchaser for such Accounts Receivable. Canadian Seller and Purchaser shall each file such election (and any documentation necessary or desirable to give effect thereto) forthwith after the execution thereof (and, in any event, with their respective Tax returns for the taxation year in which the Closing Date occurs).

6.10    Limited Use of Intellectual Property. Following the Closing, for a period of 90 days, Seller shall have a limited license to use trademarks and trade names included as part of the Acquired Assets solely and reasonably in connection with transitioning the Business to Purchaser and winding down the remaining business of Seller, subject to the prior review and approval of Purchaser, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed.

6.11    Funding Process. On the Business Day following the approval of the Bankruptcy Petition by the Bankruptcy Court, Purchaser shall, or shall cause its parent company or other affiliate, as applicable, to initiate the process to transfer funds sufficient to pay the Purchase Price at Closing, including obtaining requisite corporate, banking, and regulatory approvals, and shall fund such account as soon as feasible.

7.1    Termination. This Agreement may, by notice given prior to or at the Closing, be terminated:

(a)    by mutual consent of Purchaser and Seller;

(b)    by Seller or Purchaser in the event the Closing has not occurred on or before 49 days after filing of the Bankruptcy Petition;

(c)    by Seller if, incident to the Bidding Procedures Order, Seller accepts and closes on a competing bid for the purchase of all or part of the Acquired Assets;

(d)    by Purchaser if (i) the US Seller consummates a sale of all or part of the Acquired Assets to a Third Party other than Purchaser, or (ii) the US Seller’s Bankruptcy Case is dismissed or converted to one under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code; or

(e)    by the non-breaching party upon a material breach of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such breach has not been waived by the non-breaching party and has continued after notice to the breaching party by the non-breaching party, without cure for a period of three (3) Business Days (provided that the non-breaching party shall have an immediate right to terminate if the breaching party has willfully breached any provision of this Agreement, which such breach is not cured).

7.2    Effect of Termination. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 7.1, (a) Purchaser shall have no Liability or obligations under this Agreement except for the forfeiture of the Deposit on the terms and conditions set forth in Section 7.3, and (b) Seller shall have no Liabilities under this Agreement; provided, however, that the obligations in Sections 8.2 shall survive.

7.3    Deposit. If Seller terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1(b) (solely due to Purchaser’s inability or refusal to pay the Closing Cash) or 7.1(e), then the Deposit shall be forfeited to Seller. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 7.1(a), (b), (c) or for any other reason (other than a duly noticed and uncured breach of Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement), the Deposit shall be returned to Purchaser.

8.1    “As Is”, “Where Is”, and “With all Faults” Transaction. PURCHASER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT, EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN ARTICLE IV, SELLERS MAKE NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES WHATSOEVER, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WITH RESPECT TO ANY MATTER RELATING TO THE ACQUIRED ASSETS INCLUDING (A) FINANCIAL PROJECTIONS, REVENUES, PROFITS OR INCOME TO BE DERIVED OR COSTS OR EXPENSES TO BE INCURRED

IN CONNECTION WITH THE ACQUIRED ASSETS, (B) THE PHYSICAL CONDITION OF ANY ACQUIRED ASSETS, (C) THE ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITION OR OTHER MATTERS RELATING TO THE PHYSICAL CONDITION OF THE REAL PROPERTY, (D) THE ZONING OF THE REAL PROPERTY, (E) THE VALUE OF THE ACQUIRED ASSETS OR ANY PORTION THEREOF, (F) THE TRANSFERABILITY OF THE ACQUIRED ASSETS, (G) THE TERMS, AMOUNT, VALIDITY OR ENFORCEABILITY OF ANY ASSUMED LIABILITIES, (H) TITLE TO ANY OF THE ACQUIRED ASSETS OR ANY PORTION THEREOF, (I) THE MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS OF THE ACQUIRED ASSETS OR ANY PORTION THEREOF FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR (J) ANY OTHER MATTER OR THING RELATING TO THE ACQUIRED ASSETS OR ANY PORTION THEREOF. PURCHASER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT PURCHASER HAS CONDUCTED AN INDEPENDENT INSPECTION AND INVESTIGATION OF THE PHYSICAL CONDITION OF ALL ACQUIRED ASSETS AND ALL SUCH OTHER MATTERS RELATING TO OR AFFECTING THE ACQUIRED ASSETS AS PURCHASER DEEMS NECESSARY OR APPROPRIATE AND THAT IN PROCEEDING WITH ITS ACQUISITION OF THE ACQUIRED ASSETS, EXCEPT FOR ANY REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN SECTION IV, PURCHASER IS DOING SO BASED SOLELY UPON SUCH INDEPENDENT INSPECTIONS AND INVESTIGATIONS. ACCORDINGLY, PURCHASER WILL ACCEPT THE ACQUIRED ASSETS AT THE CLOSING “AS IS,” “WHERE IS,” AND “WITH ALL FAULTS.”

8.2    Transaction Expenses. Except as expressly provided for herein, each party shall pay all fees, costs and expenses incurred by it with respect to this Agreement, whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated.

8.3    Certain Interpretive Matters and Definitions. Unless the context requires, (a) references to the plural include the singular and references to the singular include the plural, (b) references to any gender includes the other gender, (c) the words “include,” “includes” and “including” do not limit the preceding terms or words and shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”, (d) the terms “hereof”, “herein”, “hereunder”, “hereto” and similar terms in this Agreement refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement, (e) all references to financial or accounting terms shall be defined in accordance with GAAP, and (f) all references to Sections, Articles, Exhibits or Schedules are to Sections, Articles, Exhibits or Schedules of or to this Agreement.

8.5    Amendment. This Agreement may be amended or modified in whole or in part at any time by an agreement in writing among the parties.

8.6    Waiver. The waiver by a party of a breach of any covenant, agreement, condition or undertaking contained herein shall be made only by a written waiver in each case. No waiver of any breach of any covenant, agreement, condition or undertaking contained herein shall operate as a waiver of any prior or subsequent breach of the same covenant, agreement, condition or undertaking or as a waiver of any breach of any other covenant, agreement, condition or undertaking.

8.7    Notices. All notices, requests and other communications hereunder will be deemed to have been duly given if delivered personally, by an established overnight delivery company, or by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, as follows:

8.10    Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, THE RELATED DOCUMENTS OR ANY RELATED CLAIMS IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE IT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY PROCEEDING OR RELATED CLAIM BROUGHT BY OR AGAINST IT, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE RELATED DOCUMENTS OR ANY RELATED CLAIMS.

(a)    Effective as of the Closing, the Seller, on behalf of itself, its Affiliates and each of their respective successors and assigns (each of the foregoing, a “Seller Releasing Party”), hereby fully, irrevocably and unconditionally releases and forever discharges Purchaser and its respective past and present directors, managers, officers, employees, agents, stockholders, members, representatives and Affiliates from and against, and covenants that it will not (directly or indirectly) assert any claim or proceeding of any kind before any Governmental Authority based upon, any and all claims, Actions, causes of action, suits, rights, debts, agreements, Losses and demands whatsoever and all consequences thereof, known or unknown, actual or potential, suspected or unsuspected, fixed or contingent, both in law and in equity, whether existing as of the Closing or arising thereafter, that a Seller Releasing Party has or may have, now or in the

future, arising out of, relating to, or resulting from any act or omission, error, negligence, breach of contract, tort, violation of law, matter or cause whatsoever from the beginning of time to the Closing Date.
