(i)    $5,000,000 (such amount, the “Adjustment Escrow Amount”) of cash shall be deposited into an escrow account (the “Adjustment Escrow Account”), which shall be established pursuant to an escrow agreement (the “Escrow Agreement”), which Escrow Agreement shall be (x) entered into on the Closing Date by and among the Buyer, the Seller and an escrow agent to be mutually agreed upon between Buyer and the Seller (the “Escrow Agent”) as security for the Seller’s obligations pursuant to Section 2.4(c)(ii), if any, and (y) substantially in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto;

(ii)    $7,387,500 (such amount the “Indemnity Escrow Amount”) shall be deposited into an escrow account (the “Indemnity Escrow Account”) to be held by the Escrow Agent and established pursuant to the Escrow Agreement as security for the Seller’s obligations pursuant to Article IX;

(iii)    to the extent the Interim Loss Indemnity Escrow Amount (calculated without regard to the proviso contained in the definition of Interim Loss Estimate Amount) is greater than zero, the Interim Loss Indemnity Escrow Amount shall be deposited into an escrow account (the “Interim Loss Indemnity Escrow Account”) to be held by the Escrow Agent and established pursuant to the Escrow Agreement as security for the Seller’s obligations to indemnify the Buyer Indemnified Parties for Interim Losses pursuant to Article IX; provided, that if the Interim Loss Indemnity Escrow Amount (calculated without regard to the proviso contained in the definition Interim Loss Estimate Amount) is greater than $15,000,000 the Seller may, at its option, direct Buyer to only deposit $15,000,000 in the Interim Loss Indemnity Escrow Account, in which event the Interim Loss Indemnity Escrow Amount shall be deemed to be $15,000,000 (any such election by the Seller, an “Interim Loss Indemnity Escrow Reduction Election”), in which case Buyer shall have the right (in its discretion) to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(h);

(iv)    on behalf of the Seller and the Group Companies, (x) cash in the amount necessary to satisfy the Closing Date Funded Indebtedness that is included in the Estimated Purchase Price and (y) cash in the amount necessary to satisfy the Unpaid Seller Expenses that are included in the Estimated Purchase Price, each in accordance with the Funds Flow Memorandum and, in the case of clause (y), Section 6.9(e); and

(v)    to the Seller, an amount equal to the Estimated Purchase Price minus the Adjustment Escrow Amount, the Indemnity Escrow Amount and the Interim Loss Indemnity Escrow Amount (the “Closing Date Payment”).

The Seller shall provide Buyer with a flow of funds (the “Funds Flow Memorandum”) accurately setting forth the amounts to be paid pursuant to this Section 2.4(a) along with the payees thereof and the wire instructions therefor at least three Business Days prior to the Closing Date. Upon the payment of the Closing Date Payment to the Seller, the Seller shall cease to have any right, title or interest in the Shares, except rights expressly provided to the Seller under the terms of this Agreement and any Ancillary Documents.

(b)    Determination of the Final Purchase Price.

(i)    As soon as practicable, but no later than 60 days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to the Seller a reasonably detailed proposed calculation of each of (A) the Net Working Capital (and the related Net Working Capital Adjustment) and (B) the amount of Cash and Cash Equivalents, and in each case, the components thereof and in a manner consistent with the definitions thereof and otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (which calculations shall collectively be referred to herein as the “Proposed Closing Date Calculations”). If Buyer fails to timely deliver any of the Proposed Closing Date Calculations in accordance with the foregoing, then, at the election of the Seller in its sole discretion, either (i) the Actual Adjustment shall be deemed to equal zero or (ii) the Seller shall retain a nationally recognized independent accounting firm that is reasonably acceptable to Buyer to provide an audit of the Group Companies’ books, review the calculation of the Net Working Capital (and the related Net Working Capital Adjustment) and the amount of Cash and Cash Equivalents and make any adjustments necessary thereto consistent with the provisions of this Section 2.4(b), the determination of such accounting firm being conclusive and binding on the Parties absent fraud or manifest error. The engagement fees of any such independent accounting firm shall be borne 50% by the Seller and 50% by Buyer.

(ii)    The Seller shall have 45 days following receipt of the Proposed Closing Date Calculations to review such calculations (the “Review Period”). The Seller may, on or prior to the last day of the Review Period, give to Buyer written notice of dispute (“Purchase Price Dispute Notice”), which shall specify in reasonable detail those items or amounts in Buyer’s calculation of the Proposed Closing Date Calculations as to which the Seller disagrees (the “Disputed Items”) and the basis for such disagreement. Prior to the end of the Review Period, the Seller may accept the Proposed Closing Date Calculations by delivering written notice to that effect to Buyer, in which case the Proposed Closing Date Calculations (and corresponding Actual Adjustment and Purchase Price calculated on the basis thereof) will become conclusive and binding when such notice is given. Unless the Seller delivers a Purchase Price Dispute Notice to Buyer prior to the expiration of the Review Period, the Seller will be deemed to have accepted and agreed to the Proposed Closing Date Calculations (and corresponding Actual Adjustment and Purchase Price calculated on the basis thereof) and such amounts shall become conclusive and binding on Buyer and the Seller. Buyer or Seller, as the case may be, shall within five (5) Business Days of the date of the expiration of the Review Period make the adjustment payment required by Section 2.4(c)

with respect to such undisputed items. If the Seller gives a Purchase Price Dispute Notice to Buyer on or prior to the last day of the Review Period, Buyer and the Seller shall use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to reach agreement on the Disputed Items set forth in the Purchase Price Dispute Notice in good faith during the 30-day period commencing on the date Buyer receives the applicable Purchase Price Dispute Notice from the Seller. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Federal Rules of Evidence Rule 408 shall apply to any discussions related to the Disputed Items between Buyer and the Seller during such 30-day period, including any subsequent disputes arising therefrom. If the Seller and Buyer do not agree upon a final resolution with respect to the Disputed Items set forth in the Purchase Price Dispute Notice within such 30-day period, then the remaining Disputed Items shall be submitted immediately by Buyer and the Seller to an independent accounting firm of national reputation mutually acceptable to Buyer and the Seller (the “Accounting Firm”). The Accounting Firm shall be requested to render a written determination of the Disputed Items (acting as an expert and not as an arbitrator) within 45 days after referral of the matter to such Accounting Firm, which determination must be in writing and must set forth, in reasonable detail, the basis therefor and must be based solely on the definitions and other applicable provisions of this Agreement with respect to the Disputed Items, on a single presentation submitted by each of Buyer and the Seller and on one written response to each such presentation so submitted. The terms of appointment and engagement of the Accounting Firm shall be as agreed upon between the Seller and Buyer, and any associated engagement fees shall initially be borne 50% by the Seller and 50% by Buyer; provided that such fees shall ultimately be borne by each party in the percentage calculated by dividing (i) the amount that the Accounting Firm allocates, of the amounts related to the disputed items, to the other party by (ii) the total amount of the total items in dispute as originally submitted to the Accounting Firm. For example, should the items in dispute total in amount to $1,000 and the Accounting Firm awards $600 in favor of the Seller’s position, 60% of the costs of its review would be borne by Buyer and 40% of the costs would be borne by the Seller. Except as provided in the preceding two sentences, all other costs and expenses incurred by the Parties in connection with resolving any dispute hereunder before the Accounting Firm shall be borne by the Party incurring such cost and expense. In resolving the Disputed Items, the Accounting Firm shall limit its review to determining the amount for each Disputed Item in accordance with the standards and definitions in this Agreement and shall resolve each Disputed Item by choosing an amount which is either equal to or in between the amount for each Disputed Item set forth in the Proposed Closing Date Calculations and the amount for each Disputed Item set forth in the Purchase Price Dispute Notice. Such determination of the Accounting Firm shall be conclusive and binding upon the Parties absent fraud or manifest error. The Proposed Closing Date Calculations shall be revised as appropriate to reflect the resolution of any objections thereto pursuant to this Section 2.4(b)(ii), and, as so revised, such Proposed Closing Date Calculations shall be deemed to set forth the final Net Working Capital (and the related Net Working Capital Adjustment), Cash and Cash Equivalents and Purchase Price resulting therefrom (which shall be equal to the Estimated Purchase Price as adjusted solely to give effect to any differences between Estimated Net Working Capital Adjustment and Net Working Capital Adjustment and Estimated Cash and Cash Equivalents and Cash and Cash Equivalents (in each case fully determined in accordance with this Section 2.4)), in each case, for all purposes hereunder (including the determination of the Actual Adjustment).

(iii)    Each of Buyer and the Seller shall, and shall cause each of their respective Subsidiaries (including, in the case of Buyer, the Group Companies) to, make their

respective financial records and all supporting documents and work papers used in preparation or review of the Proposed Closing Date Calculations (provided that the Party (or its representatives) requesting work papers has executed and delivered any non-reliance, release or other agreements required by the accounting firm which has prepared such work papers) and personnel available to the other Party and its accountants and other representatives at reasonable times at any time during Buyer’s preparation of the Proposed Closing Date Calculations or the review by the Seller of the Proposed Closing Date Calculations, as applicable, as well as during the resolution of any audit pursuant to Section 2.4(b)(i) or of any Disputed Items.

(iv)    Buyer and the Seller agree that the procedures set forth in this Section 2.4 for resolving disputes with respect to the Proposed Closing Date Calculations shall be the sole and exclusive method for resolving any Disputed Items; provided that this provision shall not prohibit either Party from instituting litigation to enforce any final determination of the Net Working Capital and Cash and Cash Equivalents by the Accounting Firm pursuant to Section 2.4(b)(ii) in any court of competent jurisdiction in accordance with Section 10.16. The substance of the Accounting Firm’s determination shall not be subject to review or appeal, absent a showing of fraud or manifest error. It is the intent of the Parties to have any final determination of the Net Working Capital and Cash and Cash Equivalents by the Accounting Firm proceed in an expeditious manner; however, any deadline or time period contained herein may be extended or modified by the written agreement of the Parties and the Parties agree that the failure of the Accounting Firm to strictly conform to any deadline or time period contained herein shall not be a basis for seeking to overturn any determination rendered by the Accounting Firm which otherwise conforms to the terms of this Section 2.4.

(c)    Adjustment to Estimated Purchase Price.

(i)    If the Actual Adjustment is a positive amount, (x) the Buyer shall pay to the Seller an amount equal to such positive amount, if any, by wire transfer or delivery of immediately available funds, in each case, within three Business Days after the date on which the Net Working Capital Adjustment and Cash and Cash Equivalents are determined pursuant to this Section 2.4 and (y) Buyer and the Seller shall deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to release the Adjustment Escrow Funds from the Adjustment Escrow Account to the Seller.

(ii)    If the Actual Adjustment is a negative amount, then within three Business Days after the date on which the Net Working Capital Adjustment and Cash and Cash Equivalents are determined pursuant to this Section 2.4, the Buyer and the Seller shall deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to deliver to the Buyer an amount equal to the absolute value of such negative amount out of the Adjustment Escrow Account (and, if applicable, out of the Indemnity Escrow Account as provided for in clause (y) of the following proviso); provided, that (x) to the extent the absolute value of the Actual Adjustment is less than the Adjustment Escrow Funds (the amount by which the absolute value of the Actual Adjustment is less than the Adjustment Escrow Funds, net of any amounts that the Seller is required to pay the Accounting Firm pursuant to Section 2.4(b)(ii), is referred to as the “Adjustment Escrow Excess Amount”), the Parties shall deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent instructing the

Escrow Agent to release the Adjustment Escrow Excess Amount from the Adjustment Escrow Account to the Seller simultaneously with the payment of the Actual Adjustment to Buyer and (y) to the extent the absolute value of the Actual Adjustment is more than the Adjustment Escrow Funds (the amount by which the absolute value of the Actual Adjustment is more than the Adjustment Escrow Funds, net of any amounts that the Seller is required to pay the Accounting Firm pursuant to Section 2.4(b)(ii), is referred to as the “Adjustment Escrow Shortfall Amount”), the Parties shall deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to release the Adjustment Escrow Shortfall Amount from the Indemnity Escrow Account to Buyer simultaneously with the payment of the remainder of the Actual Adjustment to Buyer.

(iii)    The parties’ payment obligations under this Section 2.4 will not be subject to offset or reduction by reason of any actual or alleged breach of any representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement or the Ancillary Documents and any right or alleged right of indemnification hereunder or for any other reason or under any other agreement.

(d)    Determination of the Interim Loss Estimate Amount.

(i)    No later than five Business Days prior to the Closing, Buyer shall deliver to the Seller a statement setting forth, in reasonable detail, Buyer’s reasonable, good faith estimate of the Interim Loss Estimate Amount (such estimate, “Buyer’s Interim Loss Estimate Amount”).

(ii)    The Seller may, prior to the date that is three Business Days prior to the Closing Date, give to Buyer written notice of dispute (“Interim Loss Indemnity Dispute Notice”), which shall specify in reasonable detail any items or amounts in Buyer’s Interim Loss Estimate Amount as to which the Seller disagrees (the “Interim Loss Disputed Items”) and the basis for such disagreement. Prior to the date that is three Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Seller may accept Buyer’s Interim Loss Estimate Amount by delivering written notice to that effect to Buyer, in which case Buyer’s estimate of the Interim Loss Estimate Amount (and corresponding Interim Loss Indemnity Escrow Amount, Interim Loss Indemnity Threshold and Indemnity Threshold calculated on the basis thereof) will become conclusive and binding solely for purposes of determining the Interim Loss Estimate Amount (and related calculations) when such notice is given, and is otherwise subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.4(d)(iii) below. Unless the Seller delivers a Interim Loss Indemnity Dispute Notice to Buyer prior to the date that is three Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Seller will be deemed to have accepted and agreed to Buyer’s estimate of the Interim Loss Estimate Amount (and corresponding Interim Loss Indemnity Escrow Amount, Interim Loss Indemnity Threshold and Indemnity Threshold calculated on the basis thereof) and such amounts shall become conclusive and binding on Buyer and the Seller. If the Seller gives an Interim Loss Indemnity Dispute Notice to Buyer on or prior to the date that is three Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Buyer and the Seller shall discuss in good faith in order to reach agreement on the Interim Loss Disputed Items set forth in the Interim Loss Indemnity Dispute Notice. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Federal Rules of Evidence Rule 408 shall apply to any discussions related to the Interim Loss Disputed Items between Buyer and the Seller during such period, including any subsequent disputes arising therefrom. If the Seller and Buyer do not agree upon a final resolution with respect to the Interim Loss Disputed Items set

forth in the Interim Loss Indemnity Dispute Notice prior to the date that is two Business Days prior to the Closing Date, then the remaining Disputed Items shall be submitted immediately by Buyer and the Seller to an independent accounting firm of national reputation mutually acceptable to Buyer and the Seller (the “Interim Loss Accounting Firm”) and an independent counsel of national reputation mutually acceptable to Buyer and the Seller (the “Interim Loss Counsel”). The Interim Loss Accounting Firm and the Interim Loss Counsel shall be requested to render a written determination (which need not be a legal opinion) of the Interim Loss Estimate Amount (acting as experts and not as arbitrators) as promptly as practicable after referral of the matter to such Interim Loss Accounting Firm and Interim Loss Counsel (but in any event prior to the Closing), which determination must be in writing and will be based on the facts and information provided by Buyer and Seller at the time. The terms of appointment and engagement of the Interim Loss Accounting Firm and the Interim Loss Counsel shall be as agreed upon between the Seller and Buyer, and any associated engagement fees shall be borne 50% by the Seller and 50% by Buyer. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, all other costs and expenses incurred by the Parties in connection with resolving any dispute hereunder before the Interim Loss Accounting Firm and the Interim Loss Counsel shall be borne by the Party incurring such cost and expense. The determination of the Interim Loss Accounting Firm and the Interim Loss Counsel shall be conclusive and binding upon the Parties absent fraud or manifest error. The Interim Loss Estimate Amount shall be revised as appropriate to reflect the resolution of any objections thereto pursuant to this Section 2.4(d)(ii), and, as so revised, such Interim Loss Estimate Amount shall be deemed to set forth the final Interim Loss Estimate Amount (and corresponding Interim Loss Indemnity Escrow Amount, Interim Loss Indemnity Threshold and Indemnity Threshold calculated on the basis thereof), in each case, for all purposes hereunder.

(iii)    None of (A) Buyer’s estimate of the Interim Loss Estimated Amount, (B) the Seller’s agreement (or deemed agreement) with Buyer’s estimate of the Interim Loss Estimated Amount, (C) any other agreement between the Buyer and the Seller with respect to the Interim Loss Estimated Amount pursuant to this Section 2.4(d) or (D) the determination of the Interim Loss Accounting Firm and the Interim Loss Counsel pursuant to Section 2.4(d), shall be determinative of, or deemed to be or construed as an admission by Buyer or the Seller with respect to, (x) the existence or amount of any Interim Loss, or (y) whether any Buyer Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification pursuant to Article IX and/or the amount to which of any Buyer Indemnified Party may be entitled pursuant to Article IX.

(iv)    For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 2.4(d), including the dispute resolution provisions and the engagement of the Interim Loss Accounting Firm and the Interim Loss Counsel, shall toll or otherwise extend or change the Termination Date or the End Date.

Section 2.5    Withholding. Buyer and the Company shall be entitled to deduct and withhold any amounts they are required to deduct and withhold pursuant to any provision of the Code or other Law in connection with any payments required to be made by Buyer or the Company pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Buyer shall provide prior written notifications to the Seller, as promptly as practicable following receipt of the Statement and prior to the Closing, of the approximate amounts that Buyer (or any other withholding agent) intends to withhold from

the Estimated Purchase Price (determined on the assumption that Seller will deliver the certificate described in Section 6.2(b) on the Closing Date), and Buyer will reasonably consider all comments and suggestions that the Seller may have with respect to such written notification. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by Buyer or the Company, such withheld amounts (a) shall be timely remitted by Buyer or the Company to the applicable Governmental Entity in accordance with applicable Law and (b) shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person otherwise entitled to receive such payments pursuant to this Agreement.

There are no agreements to which the Company or any other Group Company is a party, or to the Knowledge of the Company, among the holders of Company Common Stock or the holders of capital stock of any other Group Company, with respect to the voting of Company Common Stock or the capital stock of any other Group Company.

Section 5.1    Organization and Qualification. Buyer is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of Delaware. Buyer has all requisite corporate power and authority and to own, lease and operate its material properties and to carry on its businesses as presently conducted, except where the failure to have such power or authority has not had and would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Buyer Material Adverse Effect.

Section 5.2    Authority. Buyer has all corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and each of the Ancillary Documents to which Buyer is a party and to consummate the Transactions. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Ancillary Documents to which Buyer is a party and the consummation of the Transactions have been duly authorized by all requisite corporate action on the part of Buyer. No vote of Buyer’s equityholders is required to approve this Agreement or for Buyer to consummate the Transactions. This Agreement has been (and the Ancillary Documents to which Buyer is a party will be) duly executed and delivered by Buyer and constitutes a valid, legal and binding agreement of Buyer (assuming this Agreement has been and the Ancillary Documents to which Buyer is a party will be duly authorized, executed and delivered by the other parties thereto), enforceable against the Buyer in accordance with its terms, except (i) to the extent that enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other Laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and (ii) that the availability of equitable remedies, including specific performance, is subject to the discretion of the court before which any proceeding thereof may be brought.

Section 5.3    Consents and Approvals; No Violations. No notices to, filings with, or authorizations, consents or approvals of any Governmental Entity are necessary for the execution,

delivery or performance by Buyer of this Agreement or the Ancillary Documents to which Buyer is a party or the consummation by Buyer of the Transactions, except for (i) compliance with and filings under the HSR Act and other Competition Laws, (ii) those the failure of which to obtain or make has not had and would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Buyer Material Adverse Effect, and (iii) those set forth in Section 5.3 of the Disclosure Letter. Neither the execution, delivery or performance by Buyer of this Agreement and the Ancillary Documents to which Buyer is a party nor the consummation by Buyer of the Transactions will (a) conflict with or result in any breach of any provision of Buyer’s Governing Documents, (b) except as set forth in Section 5.3 of the Disclosure Letter, conflict with or result in any violation of or default (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both) under, result in or give rise to any right of termination, cancellation, amendment or acceleration under, require notice to a third party under, require the payment of a penalty or increased fees under, or result in the loss of a benefit under, any Contract to which Buyer is a party, or (c) violate any order, writ, injunction, decree or Law of any Governmental Entity having jurisdiction over Buyer except, in the case of clauses (b) and (c) above, for violations which have not had and would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Buyer Material Adverse Effect.

Section 5.4    Brokers. No broker, finder, financial advisor or investment banker is entitled to any brokerage, finder’s, financial advisor’s or investment banker’s fee or commission or similar payment in connection with the Transactions based upon arrangements made by and on behalf of Buyer or any of its Affiliates for which the Seller or any Group Company may become liable.

Section 5.5    Financing. Buyer has provided the Seller a true, complete and correct copy of an executed commitment letter and corresponding customarily redacted fee letter (none of which redacted terms would reasonably be expected to adversely affect the amount or availability of the Debt Financing) from the financial institutions identified therein (as may be amended or replaced from time to time to the extent permitted by Section 6.11, the “Debt Financing Commitment”), to provide, subject to the terms and conditions therein, debt financing in the amounts set forth therein for the purpose of funding the Transactions (being collectively referred to as the “Debt Financing”). The Debt Financing Commitment is a legal, valid and binding obligation of Buyer and, to the knowledge of Buyer, the other parties thereto, in each case subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other Laws affecting generally the enforcement of creditors’ rights and subject to general principles of equity. As of the date hereof, the Debt Financing Commitment is in full force and effect and has not been withdrawn, rescinded or terminated or otherwise amended or modified in any respect. As of the date hereof, no event has occurred which, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would reasonably be expected to constitute a breach or default on the part of Buyer or, to the knowledge of Buyer, any of the other parties to the Debt Financing Commitment, or a failure of the conditions to the Debt Financing. Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions contained in Section 7.1 and 7.2 hereof and the commencement and completion of the Marketing Period, as of the date hereof, Buyer has no reason to believe that any of the conditions in the Debt Financing Commitment will not be satisfied, or that the Debt Financing will not be made available on a timely basis in order to consummate the Transactions. As of the date hereof, no Lender has notified Buyer of its intention to terminate any of the Debt Financing Commitment or not to provide the Debt Financing. The net proceeds from

the Debt Financing, together with cash on hand, will be sufficient to consummate the Transactions, including the payment of any fees and expenses of or payable by Buyer, or the Company, and any related repayment or refinancing of any Funded Indebtedness of the Group Companies, and any other amounts required to be paid in connection with the consummation of the Transactions. Assuming the availability of the Debt Financing, Buyer will have cash on the Closing Date sufficient for the satisfaction of Buyer’s obligations under this Agreement specifically referenced in the immediately preceding sentence. Buyer has paid in full any and all commitment or other fees required by the Debt Financing Commitment that are due as of the date hereof, and will pay, after the date hereof, all such fees as they become due. The Debt Financing Commitment is not subject to any conditions precedent to the obligations of the parties thereunder to make the full amount of the Debt Financing available to Buyer other than as set forth therein (including the payment of customary fees). There are no side letters or other Contracts (except for any customary engagement letter, a true and complete copy of which has been provided to the Company, with only the fee amounts and certain other terms (none of which would reduce the aggregate principal amount or affect the conditionality of the Debt Financing) redacted) relating to the Debt Financing to which Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries is a party other than as expressly set forth in the Debt Financing Commitment. For the avoidance of doubt, it is not a condition to Closing under this Agreement for Buyer to obtain the Debt Financing or any alternative financing.

Section 5.6    Solvency. Assuming that the representations and warranties in Articles III and IV are true and correct and that the Seller and the Company have each complied with their respective obligations under this Agreement, at and immediately after the Closing, and after giving effect to the Transactions (including any financings being entered into in connection therewith), each of the Buyer and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis will (a) be solvent (either because its financial condition is such that the sum of its debts is less than the fair value of its assets or because the “fair salable value” of its assets is greater than the value of “all of its liabilities, including contingent and other liabilities”, as such quoted terms are generally determined in accordance with applicable federal Laws governing determinations of insolvency of debtors), (b) have adequate capital with which to engage in its business and all businesses in which it is about to engage or (c) be able to pay their debts and obligations as they become due.

Section 5.7    Securities Matters.

Section 6.2    Tax Matters.

(a)    Transfer Taxes. All transfer Taxes, recording fees and other similar Taxes that are imposed on any of the Parties by any Governmental Entity in connection with the Transactions shall be allocated 50 percent to the Group Companies or Buyer, as the case may be, and 50 percent to the Seller. Each Party shall use reasonable efforts to avail itself of any available exemptions from or reductions of any such Taxes or fees, and to cooperate with the other Parties in providing any information and documentation that may be necessary to obtain such exemptions or reductions. The party required by Law to file any Tax Returns with respect to any such Taxes shall (i) prepare such Tax Returns, (ii) submit such Tax Returns to the other party for its approval, (iii) timely file such Tax Returns and (iv) timely pay such Taxes to the appropriate Governmental Entity, subject to such party’s liability for such Taxes under this Section 6.2.

(b)    FIRPTA. On the Closing Date, the Seller shall deliver to Buyer a properly executed Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act certificate, dated not more than 30 days prior to the Closing Date, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C.

(c)    No Intermediary Transaction Tax Shelter. The transactions contemplated by this Agreement are not part of an intermediary transaction tax shelter as described in Internal Revenue Service Notices 2001 16 and 2008 111.

(d)    Section 338 Election. Buyer shall not make an election pursuant to Section 338 of the Code (or any corresponding provision of state, local or non-U.S. Tax Law) with respect to the Transactions.

(e)    Post-Closing Tax Benefit.

(i)    On the third (3rd) anniversary of the Closing Date , Buyer shall pay to Seller an amount equal to 38% of the aggregate amount of Transaction Tax Deductions (other than the Transaction Tax Deductions that reduced current Tax liabilities below what they would otherwise be in the calculation of Net Working Capital). Nothing in this Section 6.2(e) shall limit or impair the rights of any Buyer Indemnified Party under Section 9.1; provided that Buyer shall in no event reduce amounts payable under this Section 6.2(e)(i) by any items or amounts, including those set forth in Section 9.1.

(ii)    The schedule set forth in Section T-1 of the Disclosure Letter (the “Transaction Tax Deductions Schedule”) sets forth Seller’s estimates of the amounts of the Transaction Tax Deductions as of the date of this Agreement. On or promptly after the Closing Date, the Seller shall deliver a certificate updating the Transaction Tax Deductions Schedule with the actual amount of each Transaction Tax Deduction, together with evidence of such amounts as reasonably requested by Buyer, and any change in the amount shown on such updated Transaction

Tax Deductions Schedule shall be subject to the consent of Buyer (not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned). The Seller shall determine the amounts shown as deductible and non-deductible on such updated Transaction Tax Deductions Schedule in a manner consistent with the practices and methodologies used to determine the estimates set forth in Section T-1 of the Disclosure Letter. Buyer may, at any time after the Closing Date, deliver a certificate further updating such Transaction Tax Deductions Schedule to reflect the non-deductibility of a compensation expense included on the Transaction Tax Deductions Schedule because such compensation expense constitutes a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2)(A)(i) of the Code and any regulations promulgated thereunder, together with evidence of such non-deductibility determination as reasonably requested by Seller, and any change to the non-deductibility determination shown on such further updated Transaction Tax Deductions Schedule shall be subject to the consent of the Seller (not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned). Buyer and the Seller shall work together in good faith to resolve differences with respect to the Transaction Tax Deductions Schedule (including as a result of updates to such schedule by either the Seller or Buyer pursuant to this Section 6.2(e)(ii)) and to the extent there remains any disagreement between Buyer and the Seller within thirty (30) days after the delivery by Seller of the certificate referenced in the second sentence of this Section 6.2(e)(ii) or Buyer of the certificate referenced in the immediately preceding sentence, as applicable, the procedures and rules set forth in the dispute resolution mechanism described in Section 2.4(b) shall govern mutatis mutandis. The Transaction Tax Deductions shown on the Transaction Tax Deductions Schedule, as updated pursuant to this Section 6.2(e)(ii), shall be the Transaction Tax Deductions used for purposes of this Agreement, including Section 6.2(e)(i).

(iii)    The Parties shall treat any payment under this Section 6.2(e) as an adjustment to the Purchase Price unless there is no reasonable basis for doing so under applicable Tax Law.

(f)    Refunds and Credits. Any refund or credit of Taxes of the Group Companies that were borne by Seller (whether by virtue of having (i) been paid by any of the Group Companies before the Closing, (ii) been indemnified by the Seller under Article IX, (iii) reduced any prior payment under this Section 6.2(f) or (iv) were included as a current liability in Net Working Capital), shall be for the account of Seller; provided that any such refund or credit shall be for the account of Buyer or the Group Companies to the extent that such refunds or credits (x) decreased the amount of any current liability included in Net Working Capital, (y) are attributable to the carryback from a Post-Closing Tax Period of items of loss, deductions or other Tax items of Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including, after the Closing, the Group Companies) or (z) are required to be paid by any Group Company to any other Person pursuant to an agreement described in Section 3.6(a)(x) of the Disclosure Letter. All refunds or credits of Taxes of the Group Companies (other than those for the account of Seller pursuant to the previous sentence) shall be for the account of Buyer. If any Party is entitled to any refund or credit of Taxes under this Section 6.2(f), then within 10 days after such refund is received or such credit is allowed or applied against another Tax liability, the Party receiving such refund or credit shall pay such refund or the amount of such credit to the other Party; provided, however, that any such amounts paid under this Section 6.2(f) shall be net of any Tax cost or benefit to the payor Party attributable to the receipt of such refund or the payment of such amounts to the payee party. The Parties shall treat any payment under this Section 6.2(f) as an adjustment to the

Purchase Price unless there is no reasonable basis for doing so under applicable Tax Law. Buyer may reduce any amounts payable under this Section 6.2(f) by the amount of any outstanding Unrecovered Pre-Closing Tax Losses. Nothing in this Section 6.2(f) shall limit or impair the rights of any Buyer Indemnified Party under Section 9.1.

(g)    Straddle Periods. In any case under this Agreement involving a Straddle Period: (A) real, personal and intangible property Taxes (“Property Taxes”) for the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be equal to the amount of such Property Taxes for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days during the Straddle Period that are in the Pre-Closing Tax Period and the denominator of which is the number of days in the Straddle Period; and (B) Taxes (other than Property Taxes) for the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be computed as if such taxable period ended as of the close of business on the Closing Date and, in the case of any Taxes attributable to the ownership of any equity interest in any partnership, other “flowthrough” entity or “controlled foreign corporation” (within the meaning of Section 957(a) of the Code or any comparable U.S. state or local or foreign Law), as if the taxable period of such partnership, other “flowthrough” entity or controlled foreign corporation ended as of the close of business on the Closing Date (whether or not such Taxes arise in a Straddle Period of the applicable owner).

(h)    Tax Sharing Agreements. Seller shall cause the provisions of any Tax sharing agreement between (i) Seller or any of its Affiliates (other than the Group Companies), on the one hand, and (ii) the Group Companies, on the other hand, to be terminated on or before the Closing Date. After the Closing Date, no party thereto shall have any rights or obligations under any such Tax allocation or Tax sharing agreement.

(i)    Tax Returns. Buyer shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed all Tax Returns for the Group Companies for all Pre-Closing Tax Periods that are filed after the Closing Date (each such Tax Return, a “Post-Closing Tax Return”). To the extent permitted by applicable Law, each Post-Closing Tax Return shall be prepared in a manner that (x) is consistent with past practice and (y) reports the Transaction Tax Deductions as deductible items in the taxable period that ends on or otherwise includes the Closing Date. The Buyer will not take any action, or permit any action to be taken, that may prevent the taxable year of any Group Company from ending for federal and (to the extent permitted under applicable state Law) state income Tax purposes at the end of the day on which the Closing occurs and shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, elect with the relevant taxing authority to treat for all income Tax purposes the Closing Date as the last day of a taxable period of the Group Companies. At least 15 days prior to the date on which each income Tax Return or other material Tax Return is filed, Buyer shall submit Post-Closing Tax Returns to the Seller for Seller’s review and approval (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed). Without the prior written consent of the Seller, the Buyer will not (i) except for Post-Closing Tax Returns, file or amend or permit any of the Group Companies to file or amend any Tax Return relating to a Pre-Closing Tax Period (other than solely to carry back items described in Section 6.2(f)(y)); (ii) extend or waive, or cause to be extended or waived, or permit the Group Companies to extend or waive, any statute of limitations or other period for the assessment of any Tax or deficiency related to a Pre-Closing Tax Period, (iii) make or change any Tax election or accounting method that has retroactive effect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period, or (iv) elect, or cause

any Group Company to elect, to waive on any Tax Return for a Pre-Closing Tax Period any carryback of net operating losses under Section 172(b)(3) of the Code (or any analogous or similar state, local, or non-U.S. law) from such Pre-Closing Tax Period to an earlier Pre-Closing Tax Period.

(j)    Pre-Closing Tax Liability True-Up Payment. Within 10 days after the filing of the last material Post-Closing Tax Return for U.S. federal income Taxes, if the Pre-Closing Tax Liability True-Up Amount is positive, Buyer shall pay to Seller an amount equal to Pre-Closing Tax Liability True-Up Amount. For purposes of this Agreement, “Pre-Closing Tax Liability True-Up Amount” means the aggregate amount of current Tax liabilities included in Net Working Capital for Taxes reportable on Post-Closing Tax Returns minus the aggregate amount shown as due and payable with respect to the Pre-Closing Tax Periods on such Post-Closing Tax Returns. For purposes of the definition of Pre-Closing Tax Liability True-Up Amount, any Post-Closing Tax Return showing a refund or credit of Taxes shall be treated as showing an amount of zero as due and payable and the refund or credit shall be subject to the procedure and rules set forth in Section 6.2(f).

Section 6.3    Access to Information. From and after the date hereof until the earlier of the Closing Date or the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, upon reasonable notice, the Seller shall provide to Buyer and its authorized representatives during normal business hours reasonable access to (i) the officers, directors, management, accountants and other advisors of the Seller and the Group Companies and (ii) the properties, books, records and Contracts of the Group Companies, which shall include providing Buyer, prior to the Closing Date, with copies of the Governing Documents of each Group Company (in each case of clauses (i) and (ii) in a manner so as to not interfere with the normal business operations of any Group Company). All of such information shall be subject to the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, during the period from the date hereof until the Closing, neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates (including the Group Companies) shall be required to disclose to Buyer or any of its representatives any information of the type described in clause (ii) above (x) (A) if doing so would violate any Law to which the Seller or any of its Affiliates (including the Group Companies) is subject or which it reasonably determined upon the advice of counsel could result in the loss of the ability to successfully assert attorney-client and work product privileges; provided that the Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide such information in a manner that does not violate any such Law or privilege or (B) if the Seller or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and Buyer or any of its Affiliates, on the other hand, are adverse parties in a litigation and such information is reasonably pertinent thereto, or (y) relating to Taxes or Tax Returns other than information relating to the Group Companies. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Seller shall deliver (if available after using commercially reasonable efforts) to Buyer as promptly as practicable after the date of this Agreement (and in any event prior to the Closing) the materials and documents, if any, in the possession of the Seller or any of the Group Companies set forth on Section 6.3 of the Disclosure Letter.

Section 6.4    Efforts to Consummate.

(a)    Subject to the terms and conditions herein provided, each of Buyer, the Seller and the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, those things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Laws and regulations to consummate and make effective as promptly as practicable the Transactions

(including the satisfaction, but not waiver, of the closing conditions set forth in Article VII). Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of Buyer and the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain consents of all Governmental Entities and of any other Person (other than Governmental Entity) necessary to consummate the Transactions; provided that in connection with obtaining the consent of any Person other than a Governmental Entity, no Party will be required to (nor, without the prior written consent of Buyer, will the Seller or any Group Company) make or agree to make any payment or accept any material conditions or obligations, including amendments to existing conditions and obligations. All filing fees incurred in connection with the filing and compliance under Competition Laws shall be borne by Buyer. Each Party shall make an appropriate filing, if necessary, pursuant to Competition Laws with respect to the Transactions promptly (and in any event in the case of the initial filing required under the HSR Act, within five Business Days) after the date of this Agreement and shall supply as promptly as practicable to the appropriate Governmental Entities any additional information and documentary material that may be requested pursuant to Competition Laws. Without limiting the foregoing, none of Buyer, the Company, the Seller or any of their respective Affiliates shall elect to extend any waiting period or comparable period under Competition Laws or enter into any agreement with any Governmental Entity not to consummate the Transactions, except with the prior written consent of the Seller or Buyer, as applicable.

(b)    In the event any Proceeding by any Governmental Entity or other Person is threatened or commenced which questions the validity or legality of the Transactions or seeks damages in connection therewith, the Parties agree to cooperate and use commercially reasonable efforts to defend against such Proceeding and, if an injunction or other order is issued in any such Proceeding, to use commercially reasonable efforts to have such injunction or other order lifted, and to cooperate reasonably regarding any other impediment to the consummation of the Transactions.

Section 6.5    Indemnification; Directors’ and Officers’ Insurance.

(a)    Buyer agrees that all rights to indemnification or exculpation (and advancement of expenses) now existing in favor of the directors, officers, employees and agents of each Group Company, as provided in such Group Company’s Governing Documents in effect as of the date hereof and pursuant to the agreements set forth in Section 6.5 of the Disclosure Letter, in each case with respect to any matters occurring prior to the Closing Date, shall survive the consummation of the Transactions and shall continue in full force and effect and that Buyer shall cause the Group Companies to perform and discharge the Group Companies’ obligations to provide such indemnity and exculpation after the consummation of the Transactions. The indemnification and liability limitation or exculpation provisions of the Group Companies’ Governing Documents shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified after the Closing Date in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of individuals who, as of the Closing Date or at any time prior to the Closing Date, were directors, officers, employees or agents of the Seller or any Group Company, unless such modification is required by applicable Law.

(b)    Buyer shall cause the Company to, and the Company shall, purchase and maintain in effect beginning on the Closing and for a period of six years thereafter without any lapses in coverage, a “tail” policy providing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage

(including any policy providing coverage for combined fiduciary and employment practices liability) for the benefit of those Persons who are covered by Seller’s or any Group Company’s directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies as of the date hereof or at the Closing with respect to matters occurring prior to the Closing. Such policy shall provide coverage that is materially comparable to the coverage provided under the Seller’s or any Group Companies’ directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies as of the date hereof (the “Existing Policy”); provided that the Company shall not pay or covenant to pay more than 300% of the Existing Policy’s existing insurance premium in order to obtain such policy (which existing policy amount the Company represents and warrants is set forth in Section 6.5 of the Disclosure Letter; provided that the Company may substitute therefor policies of at least the same coverage containing terms and conditions which are no less advantageous to the beneficiaries thereof so long as such substitution does not result in gaps or lapses in coverage with respect to matters occurring prior to the Closing Date.

(c)    The directors, officers, employees and agents of Seller and each Group Company entitled to the indemnification, liability limitation, exculpation and insurance set forth in this Section 6.5 are intended to be third party beneficiaries of this Section 6.5. This Section 6.5 shall survive the consummation of the Transactions and shall be binding on all successors and assigns of Buyer and the Company.

Section 6.6    Exclusive Dealing. During the period from the date of this Agreement through the earlier of the Closing or the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, neither the Seller nor the Company shall take, or permit any of their respective Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, representatives, consultants, financial advisors, attorneys, accountants or other agents to take, any action to solicit, encourage, initiate or engage in discussions or negotiations with, or provide any information to or enter into any agreement with any Person (other than Buyer and/or its Affiliates) concerning any purchase of any of the Company’s equity securities or any merger, sale of substantial assets or similar transaction involving the Group Companies, other than assets (other than equity interests) sold in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement (each such acquisition transaction, an “Acquisition Transaction”).

Section 6.7    Documents and Information. After the Closing Date, Buyer and the Company shall, and shall cause the Company and the Group Companies to, until the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date, retain all books, records and other documents pertaining to the business of the Group Companies in existence on the Closing Date and, subject to compliance with applicable Law, make the same available for inspection and copying by the Seller (at the Seller’s expense) for any reasonable business purpose during normal business hours of the Company or any of the Group Companies, as applicable, upon reasonable request and upon reasonable notice; provided that Buyer shall not be required to disclose to the Seller any information if the Seller or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and Buyer or any of its Affiliates, on the other hand, are adverse parties in a litigation and such information is reasonably pertinent thereto. No such books, records or documents shall be destroyed after the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date by Buyer or any of the Group Companies, without first advising the Seller in writing and giving the Seller a reasonable opportunity to obtain possession thereof (subject in each case to compliance with applicable Law).

Section 6.8    Contact with Customers, Suppliers and Other Business Relations. During the period from the date of this Agreement until the earlier of the Closing Date

or the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, Buyer hereby agrees that neither Buyer nor any of its employees, agents, representatives or Affiliates shall initiate any contact with any non-management employee, customer, supplier, distributor or other material business relation of any Group Company regarding any Group Company, its business or the Transactions without first notifying the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement shall apply with respect to any communications or sharing of information pursuant to this Section 6.8.

Section 6.9    Employee Benefits Matters.

(a)    For a period of one year following the Closing Date, Buyer shall provide or cause its Subsidiaries (including the Group Companies) to provide employees of each Group Company who continue to be employed by a Group Company with (1) the same salary or hourly wage rate as provided to such employees immediately prior to the Closing Date and (2) employee benefits (excluding equity arrangements) that are either (A) the same as provided to such employees immediately prior to the Closing Date or (B) at least as favorable as those provided to similarly situated employees of Buyer and its Subsidiaries. Buyer further agrees that, from and after the Closing Date, Buyer shall and shall cause each Group Company to grant all of its employees credit for any service with such Group Company earned prior to the Closing Date (i) for eligibility and vesting purposes and (ii) for purposes of vacation accrual and severance benefit determinations under any benefit or compensation plan, program, agreement or arrangement that may be established or maintained by Buyer or the Company Entity or any of its Subsidiaries on or after the Closing Date (the “New Plans”); provided, however, that such service need not be recognized to the extent that such recognition would result in any duplication of benefits. In addition, Buyer shall (A) cause to be waived all pre‑existing condition exclusions and actively‑at‑work requirements and similar limitations, eligibility waiting periods and evidence of insurability requirements under any New Plans to the extent waived or satisfied by an employee or his or her dependents under any Employee Benefit Plan as of the Closing Date and (B) cause any deductible, co-insurance and covered out-of-pocket expenses paid on or before the Closing Date by any employee (or covered dependent thereof) of any Group Company to be taken into account for purposes of satisfying the corresponding deductible, coinsurance and maximum out‑of‑pocket provisions after the Closing Date under any applicable New Plan in the year of initial participation, provided that the Group Companies (or their insurers) use their commercially reasonable best efforts to provide this information to Buyer in a timely manner. Buyer agrees that Buyer and the Company shall be solely responsible for satisfying the continuation coverage requirements of Section 4980B of the Code for all individuals who are “M&A qualified beneficiaries” as such term is defined in Treasury Regulation Section 54.4980B‑9.

(b)    With respect to any employees of the Group Companies based outside of the United States, Buyer’s obligations under this Section 6.9 shall be modified to the extent necessary to comply with applicable Laws of the foreign countries and political subdivisions thereof in which such employees are based.

(c)    The Group Companies will adopt written resolutions and a plan amendment to terminate each Employee Benefit Plan qualified under Code Section 401(k) (each, a “Group Company 401(k) Plan”) and to fully (100%) vest all participants under all Group Company 401(k) Plans, such termination and vesting to be effective no later than one business day preceding the

Closing Date (but contingent on the Closing). The form and substance of such written resolutions and such amendment will be preapproved by Buyer, such approval not unreasonably withheld, and the Group Companies will deliver notice of the Group Company 401(k) Plan termination to participants and any trustees and custodians of each Group Company 401(k) Plan and/or its assets.

(d)    Nothing contained herein, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any employee of any Group Company any right to continued employment for any period or continued receipt of any specific employee benefit, or shall constitute an amendment to or any other modification of any New Plan or Employee Benefit Plan (or an undertaking to amend any such plans) or limit the rights of Buyer or any Group Company to amend, modify or terminate any such plans pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms thereof. The provisions of this Section 6.9 are solely for the benefit of the Parties, and no current or former director, officer, employee or independent contractor or any other Person shall be a third-party beneficiary of this Section 6.9 of this Agreement.

(e)    The Company agrees that any Seller Expenses of the type described in clause (ii) of the definition thereof, to the extent paid at or prior to the Closing, shall only be paid in accordance with the Group Companies’ payroll procedures (including with respect to Tax withholding), and Seller acknowledges that any such Seller Expenses that constitute Unpaid Seller Expenses and are to paid by any Group Company following the Closing shall be paid in accordance with such payroll procedures.

(a)    Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Buyer shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the Debt Financing on a timely basis on the terms and conditions described in the Debt Financing Commitment, including using its reasonable best efforts to (i) comply with its obligations under the Debt Financing Commitment and any definitive agreements related thereto (the “Debt Financing Documents”), (ii) maintain in effect the Debt Financing Commitment, (iii) negotiate and enter into Debt Financing Documents on a timely basis on terms

Buyer shall keep the Seller and the Company informed on a reasonable basis and in reasonable detail of the status of its efforts to arrange the Debt Financing (including providing the Seller and the Company with copies of all executed definitive agreements related to the Debt Financing (subject, in the case of any fee letter or engagement letter related to the Debt Financing, to customary redactions (none of which redacted terms would reasonably be expected to adversely affect the principal amount or availability of the Debt Financing))). Buyer shall give the Seller and the Company prompt notice upon having knowledge of any breach by any Lender under the Debt Financing Documents or any termination of any of the Debt Financing Documents. Other than as set forth in this Section 6.11, Buyer shall not, without the prior written consent of the Seller, amend, modify, supplement or waive any of the conditions or contingencies to funding contained in the Debt Financing Documents or any other provision of, or remedies under, the Debt Financing Documents (other than in accordance with the “market flex” provisions), in each case to the extent such amendment, modification, supplement or waiver would reasonably be expected to have the effect of (A) adversely affecting in any material respect the ability of Buyer to timely consummate the Transactions, (B) amending, modifying, supplementing or waiving the conditions or contingencies to the Debt Financing in a manner materially adverse to the Company or the Seller or (C) materially delaying the Closing; provided that notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Buyer shall be entitled from time to time to amend, restate, replace, supplement or otherwise modify the Debt Financing Commitment for the purpose of adding agents, co-agents, lenders, arrangers, bookrunners or other Persons that have not executed the Debt Financing Commitment as of the date hereof, in each case, subject to subclauses (A), (B) and (C) above.

(b)    If all or any portion of the Debt Financing becomes unavailable, Buyer shall use its reasonable best efforts to (i) arrange to promptly obtain the Debt Financing or such portion of the Debt Financing from alternative sources, which may include one or more of a senior secured debt financing, an offering and sale of notes, or any other financing or offer and sale of other debt securities, or any combination thereof, in an amount sufficient, when added to any portion of the Debt Financing that is available and cash on hand and other readily available liquidity, to pay in cash all amounts required to be paid by Buyer in connection with the Transactions (“Alternative Debt Financing”) and (ii) obtain a new financing commitment letter (the “Alternative Debt Commitment Letter”) and a new definitive agreement with respect thereto that provides for financing

(A) on terms not materially less favorable, in the aggregate, to Buyer (taking into account the “market flex” provisions of the existing Debt Financing Commitment), (B) containing conditions to draw and other terms that would reasonably be expected to affect the availability thereof that (1) are not more onerous, taken as a whole, than those conditions and terms contained in the Debt Financing Commitment as of the date hereof and (2) would not reasonably be expected to delay the Closing and (C) in an amount that is sufficient, when added to any portion of the Debt Financing that is available and cash on hand and other readily available liquidity, to pay in cash all amounts required to be paid by Buyer in connection with the Transactions.

remain valid and binding obligations of the Parties, and (b) any liability of any Party for fraud, willful misconduct or intentional or willful breach (which, in the case of Buyer, shall be deemed to include a failure by Buyer to consummate the Closing within five (5) Business Days following the date on which the Closing should have occurred pursuant to Section 2.2 if (i) there has not been a Financing Failure, (ii) all of the conditions set forth in Section 7.1 and Section 7.2 have been satisfied (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied by actions taken at the Closing, provided that such conditions are capable of being satisfied at the Closing), and (iii) to the extent that the Marketing Period has ended, or is capable of ending, prior to the Termination Date or End Date, as applicable, the Seller has irrevocably confirmed by written notice to Buyer after the end of the Marketing Period that all conditions set forth in Section 7.3 have been satisfied (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied by actions taken at the Closing, provided that such conditions are capable of being satisfied at the Closing) or that it is willing to waive any unsatisfied conditions in Section 7.3 and that the Seller and the Company are ready, willing and able to consummate the Closing) of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or obligations under this Agreement prior to such termination (which liability, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not necessarily be limited to reimbursement of expenses); provided that if this Agreement is terminated or deemed terminated by the Seller pursuant to Section 8.1(g), then Buyer shall pay an amount equal to $49,250,000 (the “Termination Fee”) to the Seller one (1) Business Day after such termination, by wire transfer of same-day funds to an account designated by the Seller. In the event of a termination of this Agreement where the Seller is entitled to receive the Termination Fee, the Seller’s right to receive payment of the Termination Fee from Buyer pursuant to this Section 8.2(a) shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Company Related Parties against Buyer, the Lenders, the Lender Related Parties, their respective Affiliates and their respective Affiliates’ directors, officers, managers, members, shareholders, partners, employees, agents, representatives, successors and permitted assigns (collectively, the “Buyer Related Parties”) for any loss or damage suffered as a result of the breach of this Agreement or any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained herein by Buyer (other than pursuant to Section 8.2(b), if applicable) or the failure of the Transactions to be consummated, and upon payment of the Termination Fee in accordance with this Section 8.2(a), none of the Buyer Related Parties shall have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the Transactions.

(b)    If Buyer fails to timely pay the Termination Fee when due pursuant to Section 8.2(a) and, in order to obtain the payment, the Seller commences a Proceeding which results in a judgment (or any settlement payment) against Buyer or any other party for payment of the Termination Fee, Buyer shall pay the Seller its reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) in connection with such Proceeding, together with interest on such amount at a rate of ten percent (10%) per annum for the period beginning on the date such payment was required to be made and ending on the date such payment was actually received.

(c)    The Parties acknowledge that the agreements contained in this Section 8.2 are an integral part of the Transactions, and that, without these agreements, the Parties would not enter into this Agreement. The Parties acknowledge that the Termination Fee, in the circumstances in which such fee becomes payable, constitutes liquidated damages and is not a penalty.

Section 9.1    Indemnification by the Seller. Subject to the applicable limitations and other provisions set forth in this Article IX and in Section 10.1, from and after the Closing Date, the Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless Buyer and its Affiliates (including the Group Companies) and their respective directors, officers, managers, members, shareholders, partners, employees, agents, representatives, successors and permitted assigns (collectively, the “Buyer Indemnified Parties”) against any Losses based upon, attributable to or resulting from:

(i)    any breach or default in performance by the Company or the Seller of any covenant or obligation of the Company or the Seller, as applicable, contained in this Agreement;

(ii)    any breach of, or inaccuracy in, any representation or warranty of the Company or the Seller contained in this Agreement or in any certificate delivered by the Company or the Seller pursuant to Section 7.2(c)(i);

(iii)    any Closing Date Funded Indebtedness or any Seller Expenses not reflected on the Statement delivered pursuant to Section 2.4(a);

(iv)    any Proceeding brought by any current or former member or securityholder of the Seller or any of its Affiliates, in such Person’s capacity as such, against Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including the Group Companies) in connection with the Transactions, including any claim that the Closing Date Payment, the Adjustment Escrow Amount, the Indemnity Escrow Amount or the Interim Loss Indemnity Escrow Amount was not properly distributed to such member or securityholder;

(v)    if applicable, the amount which any Actual Adjustment payable pursuant to Section 2.4(c) exceeds the Adjustment Escrow Amount; and

(vi)    any Unrecovered Pre-Closing Tax Losses.

Subject to the applicable limitations and other provisions set forth in this Article IX and in Section 10.1, from and after the Closing Date, Buyer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Seller and its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, managers, members, shareholders, partners, employees, agents, representatives, successors and permitted assigns (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) against any Losses based upon, attributable to or resulting from:

(i)    any breach or default in performance by Buyer of any covenant or obligation of Buyer contained in this Agreement; and

(ii)    any breach of, or inaccuracy in, any representation or warranty of Buyer contained in this Agreement or in any certificate delivered by Buyer pursuant to Section 7.3(c)(i); and

(a)    For the purposes of this Article IX, any breach of, or inaccuracy in, any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement (as well as any certificate delivered pursuant to this Agreement), as well as any Losses resulting from any such breach or inaccuracy, shall be determined without giving effect to any limitations or qualifications regarding materiality, the use of the word “material”, “material respects”, “Company Material Adverse Effect”, “Seller Material Adverse Effect”, “Buyer Material Adverse Effect”, or any similar term, qualification or limitation based on materiality contained herein (including any reference to the Group Companies as a whole).

(b)    (i)     Other than with respect to the Company Fundamental Representations, the Seller Fundamental Representations and the representations under Section 3.15, the Seller shall not be required to indemnify any Buyer Indemnified Party and shall not have any liability under Section 9.1(ii) in respect of any individual claim for a Loss or series of related claims for Losses incurred or suffered by the Buyer Indemnified Party, unless such Loss or series of related Losses exceeds $50,000 (the “Per-Claim Threshold”), in which case (x) all such Losses (other than Interim Losses) shall be indemnifiable claims and subject to indemnification hereunder counted against the Indemnity Threshold and (y) all such Losses that are Interim Losses shall be indemnifiable claims and subject to indemnification hereunder counted against the Interim Loss Indemnity Threshold; and any individual Loss (or series of related Losses) less than the Per-Claim Threshold (unless it is part of a series of related Losses that aggregate to the Per-Claim Threshold) shall not be aggregated for purposes of calculating whether or not Losses of the Buyer Indemnified Parties exceed the Indemnity Threshold or the Interim Loss Indemnity Threshold, as applicable.

(ii)    Other than in the case of indemnification claims for Interim Losses or with respect to the Company Fundamental Representations, the Seller Fundamental Representations and the representations under Section 3.15, the Seller shall not be required to indemnify any Buyer Indemnified Party and shall not have any liability under Section 9.1(ii) until such time as the aggregate of all claims for Losses (other than claims for Interim Losses) that the Buyer Indemnified Parties may have under Section 9.1(ii) and any applicable Ancillary Document exceeds the Indemnity Threshold, and then only to the extent such Losses exceed the Indemnity Threshold. Except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the Seller shall not be required to indemnify any Buyer Indemnified Party and shall not have any liability under Section 9.1(ii) with respect to Interim Losses until such time as the aggregate of all claims for Interim Losses that the Buyer Indemnified Parties may have under Section 9.1(ii) exceeds the Interim Loss Indemnity Threshold, and then only to the extent such Interim Losses exceed the Interim Loss Indemnity Threshold.

(iii)    For purposes of this Agreement, (i) “Company Fundamental Representations” shall mean the representations and warranties of the Company set forth in Section 3.1 (Organization and Qualification of the Group Companies), Section 3.2 (Capitalization of the Group Companies), Section 3.3 (Authority), Section 3.6(d) (Material Contracts), Section 3.16 (Brokers) and Section 3.18 (Transactions with Affiliates) and (ii) “Seller Fundamental

Representations” shall mean the representations and warranties of the Seller under Section 4.1 (Organization and Qualification), Section 4.2 (Authority), Section 4.4 (Title to Stock), Section 4.6 (Assets and Operations of Seller) and Section 4.7 (Voting Requirements).

(ii)    In calculating amounts payable to an indemnified party hereunder, the amount of any indemnified Loss shall be determined without duplication of such Loss for which an indemnification claim has already been made under any other representation, warranty, covenant or agreement.

(iii)    Seller shall not be required to indemnify any Buyer Indemnified Party and shall not have any liability under Section 9.1 other than out of the Interim Loss Indemnity Escrow Account and, subject to Section 9.5, the Indemnity Escrow Account.

(d)    The amount of any Loss for which indemnification is provided under Section 9.1 or Section 9.2 shall be (i) net of any actual cash payments, setoffs or cash recoupment of any payments (including insurance proceeds or any indemnity, contribution or other similar payments (other than from (x) any self-insurance programs, (y) the Representation and Warranty Insurance Policy and (z) any Ancillary Document)), in each case actually received, realized or retained by the indemnified party as a result of any event giving rise to a claim for such indemnification (net of costs, expenses and Taxes incurred in obtaining any such payment, recoupment or setoff); provided that the amount deemed to be recovered under insurance policies will also be net of the deductible for such policies, any increase in the premium (and retro-premium adjustments) for such policies to the extent arising out of or in connection with such Losses, (ii) net of an amount equal to any Tax benefit actually realized by the indemnified party in connection therewith (determined on a “with and without” basis) in the taxable period of the Loss and for the three taxable periods that follow, and (iii) increased by any Taxes incurred by the indemnified party as a result of receiving any indemnity payment under Section 9.1 or Section 9.2 with respect to such Loss. If any such actual cash payments, setoffs or cash recoupment of any payments or any such Tax benefits are received by an indemnified party with respect to any Losses after the indemnifying party made a payment hereunder to the indemnified party with respect thereto, then the indemnified party shall promptly pay to the indemnifying party the amount (less any expenses and Taxes incurred in obtaining any such payments, setoffs, recoupments or Tax benefits) of any payments, setoffs, recoupments or Tax benefits received or retained (up to the amount of the indemnifying party’s prior payment to the indemnified party related thereto).

(e)    NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY CONTAINED HEREIN, NO PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE TO OR OTHERWISE RESPONSIBLE TO ANY OTHER PARTY HERETO OR ANY AFFILIATE OF ANY OTHER PARTY HERETO FOR SPECIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (OTHER THAN SUCH CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES TO THE EXTENT REASONABLY FORESEEABLE),

EXCEPT IN THE CASE OF A PARTY’S OBLIGATION TO INDEMNIFY AN INDEMNIFIED PARTY FOR AMOUNTS PAID TO A THIRD PARTY WHERE SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARE AWARDED PURSUANT TO A THIRD PARTY CLAIM (OR SETTLEMENT THEREOF) THAT IS SUBJECT TO INDEMNIFICATION HEREUNDER. FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, ANY FINES OR PENALTIES PAYABLE TO A GOVERNMENTAL ENTITY SHALL NOT CONSTITUTE SPECIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES.

Section 9.4    Release from Indemnity Escrow Account. Any amounts in the Indemnity Escrow Account and/or the Interim Loss Indemnity Escrow Account will be released in accordance with Section 1.4 of the Escrow Agreement, and shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

Section 9.5    Limitation on Remedies. Except as otherwise expressly provided in any Ancillary Document and, in the case of the Buyer Indemnified Parties as provided in the Representation and Warranty Insurance Policy, from and after the Closing, the sole and exclusive remedy of each Buyer Indemnified Party and Seller Indemnified Party as against any Indemnifying Party, with respect to all claims of any nature whatsoever relating to the Transactions, including any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement, shall be pursuant to and limited by the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article IX, it being understood that (x) the foregoing limitations shall not apply in respect of a claim of fraud or for the remedies of injunctive relief or specific performance set forth herein and (y) nothing in this sentence shall operate to interfere with or impede the operation of the provisions of Section 2.4 or 6.2(e). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, but except as otherwise expressly provided in any Ancillary Document, (A) any amount to which any Buyer Indemnified Party is entitled pursuant to this Article IX (other than with respect to Interim Losses) shall be limited to, and solely satisfied from, the funds that remain in the Indemnity Escrow Account at the time and shall be claimed by such Buyer Indemnified Party upon the provision of a notice of a claim in such amount to the Escrow Agent in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement and (B) any amount to which any Buyer Indemnified Party is entitled pursuant to this Article IX with respect to Interim Losses shall be limited to, and solely satisfied from, the funds that remain in the Interim Loss Indemnity Escrow Account at the time and shall be claimed by such Buyer Indemnified Party upon the provision of a notice of a claim in such amount to the Escrow Agent in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement; provided, that to the extent the amount of funds in the Interim Loss Indemnity Escrow Account is, at any time, less than or equal to the aggregate amount to which the Buyer Indemnified Parties are entitled under this Article IX with respect to Interim Losses (such shortfall, the “Interim Loss Indemnity Escrow Shortfall Amount”), then the Buyer Indemnified Parties may satisfy such liability from any remaining funds in the Indemnity Escrow Account, and such funds shall be claimed by such Buyer Indemnified Party upon the provisions of a notice of a claim in the amount of the Interim Loss Indemnity Escrow Shortfall Amount to the Escrow Agent in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement.

Section 9.6    Procedures Relating to Indemnification.

(a)    In order for a Buyer Indemnified Party or a Seller Indemnified Party (as the case may be, the “Indemnified Party”) to be entitled to any indemnification pursuant to this Article IX

in respect of, arising out of or involving a claim or demand (other than a Tax Claim) made by any Person against such Indemnified Party (a “Third Party Claim”), such Indemnified Party must notify the indemnifying party in writing of (and in reasonable detail regarding) the Third Party Claim promptly, and in any event within 10 Business Days, after receipt by such indemnified party of written notice of the Third Party Claim; provided, however, that failure to give such notification shall not affect the indemnification provided under this Agreement except to the extent the indemnifying party shall have been prejudiced as a result of such failure. Thereafter, the Indemnified Party shall deliver to the indemnifying party, promptly following the Indemnified Party’s receipt thereof, copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnified Party relating to the Third Party Claim.

(b)    If a Third Party Claim is made against an Indemnified Party, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in the defense thereof and, subject to the limitations contained in this Section 9.6(b) and the consent rights of any Insurer or other limitations in the Representation and Warranty Insurance Policy, to assume and control the defense thereof of such Third Party Claim if it so chooses with counsel selected by the indemnifying party and not reasonably objected to by the Indemnified Party. Should the indemnifying party so elect to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for legal expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof, unless (i) the employment of such counsel has been specifically authorized in writing by the indemnifying party, (ii) the Indemnified Party shall have been advised by counsel that the assumption of such defense by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to an actual or potential conflict of interest or (iii) the Indemnified Party shall have been advised by counsel that one or more defenses are available to the Indemnified Party that are not available to the indemnifying party (provided that the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one firm of counsel for all Indemnified Party, other than local counsel). If the indemnifying party assumes such defense, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense thereof and to employ at its own expense counsel not reasonably objected to by the indemnifying party, separate from the counsel employed by the indemnifying party, it being understood that the indemnifying party shall control such defense and shall be empowered to make any settlement with respect to such Third Party Claim, subject to the remaining terms of this Section 9.6(b). The indemnifying party shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel employed by the Indemnified Party for any period during which the indemnifying party has not assumed the defense thereof. If the indemnifying party chooses to defend or prosecute any Third Party Claim, all the Parties shall cooperate and shall cause their Affiliates to cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the indemnifying party’s request) the provision to the indemnifying party of records and information that are reasonably relevant to such Third Party Claim, and making employees available on any basis reasonably requested by the indemnifying party to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder or otherwise relating to the Third Party Claim, provided, however, that the Indemnified Party shall not be required to produce any records or information that would result in a loss of privilege or violate any confidentiality obligation. Whether or not the indemnifying party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall not admit any liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge, such Third Party Claim without the indemnifying party’s prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), except if (x) the Indemnified

Party is reasonably expected to be liable for Losses in excess of amounts reasonably expected to be received from the indemnifying party, (y) such settlement or compromise is in respect of a proceeding that seeks an injunction or equitable relief against the Indemnified Party or (z) in the case of any Buyer Indemnified Party, the failure to admit liability with respect to, or settle, compromise of discharge, such Third Party Claim could cause any Buyer Indemnified Party to lose coverage under the Representation and Warranty Insurance Policy. If the indemnifying party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall agree to any settlement, compromise or discharge of such Third Party Claim that the indemnifying party may recommend and that by its terms obligates the indemnifying party to pay the full amount of the liability in connection with such Third Party Claim and which releases the Indemnified Party completely in connection with such Third Party Claim, which does not contain any admission of wrongdoing or misconduct by the Indemnified Party and which does not involve any non-monetary relief. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnifying party shall not be entitled to assume the defense of any Third Party Claim (and shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel incurred by the Indemnified Party in defending such Third Party Claim) if (x) the Third Party Claim seeks an order, injunction or other equitable relief or relief for other than money damages against the Indemnified Party that the Indemnified Party reasonably determines, after conferring with its outside counsel, cannot be separated from any related claim for money damages, (y) in the event the Third Party Claim were to be unfavorably decided, the Indemnified Party would be reasonably likely to be liable for Losses in excess of amounts reasonably expected to be received from the indemnifying party or (z) in the case of a Third Party Claim against a Buyer Indemnified Party (i) the assumption of the defense by the indemnifying party could cause any Buyer Indemnified Party to lose coverage under the Representation and Warranty Insurance Policy or (ii) a Buyer Indemnified Party or any Insurer is required to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim pursuant to the Representation and Warranty Insurance Policy. If such equitable relief or other relief portion of the Third Party Claim can be so separated from that for money damages, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to assume the defense of the portion relating to money damages.

(c)    Each of Buyer and the Seller shall promptly notify the other in writing upon receipt of notice of any pending or threatened Tax Proceeding with respect to Taxes for which the Seller may be liable under this Article IX or, in the case of receipt by the Seller, which could adversely impact any of the Group Companies (a “Tax Claim”); provided, however, that failure to give such notification shall not affect the indemnification under this Agreement except to the extent the indemnifying party shall have been prejudiced as a result of such failure. The Seller shall be entitled to participate at its expense in the defense of and, at its option, control of the defense of, any Tax Proceeding regarding Taxes for a Pre-Closing Tax Period for which the Seller may be liable under Article IX, and to employ counsel and other advisors of its choice at its expense, other than any Tax Proceeding relating to Taxes with respect to Straddle Periods, which shall be jointly controlled by Buyer and the Seller. If the Seller so opts to control Tax Proceedings for a Pre-Closing Tax Period, Buyer shall be entitled to participate at its expense in the defense of any Tax Proceeding that could adversely impact any of the Group Companies and to employ counsel and other advisors of its choice at its expense. The Seller may not agree to settle, compromise or discharge, or admit any liability with respect to any claim for Taxes for a Pre-Closing Tax Period without Buyer’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. The Seller shall be entitled to participate at its expense in the defense of any Tax Proceedings regarding Taxes for

a complete Post-Closing Tax Period for which the Seller may be liable under Article IX. None of the Group Companies shall agree to settle, compromise or discharge, or admit any liability with respect to any material claim for Taxes referenced in the preceding sentence without the Seller’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.

(d)    In the event any Indemnified Party shall have an indemnification claim against any indemnifying party under Section 9.1 or Section 9.2, as applicable, that does not involve a Third Party Claim or Tax Claim being asserted against or sought to be collected from such Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party shall deliver notice of such claim to the indemnifying party. The failure by any Indemnified Party so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability that it may have to such Indemnified Party, except to the extent that the indemnifying party has been prejudiced by such failure. If the indemnifying party does not notify the Indemnified Party within 10 Business Days following its receipt of such notice that the indemnifying party disputes its liability to the indemnified party under Section 9.1 or Section 9.2, such claim specified by the Indemnified Party in such notice shall be conclusively deemed a liability of the indemnifying party under Section 9.1 or Section 9.2 and the indemnifying party shall pay the amount of such liability to the Indemnified Party on demand or, in the case of any notice in which the amount of the claim (or any portion thereof) is estimated, on such later date when the amount of such claim (or such portion thereof) becomes finally determined.

(e)    Promptly following the final resolution of the last indemnification claim under this Article IX with respect to Interim Losses (the date of such final resolution, the “Interim Loss Determination Date”), Buyer shall pay, in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Seller, to the extent such amount is a positive number, the Indemnity Adjustment Payment.

Section 9.7    Tax Treatment of Indemnity Payments. Seller and Buyer shall treat any indemnity payments made pursuant to this Article IX and any Applicable Ancillary Document as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for all Tax purposes unless there is no reasonable basis for doing so under applicable Tax Law.

Section 9.8    [Intentionally Omitted].

Section 9.9    Representation and Warranty Insurance Policy. Seller and the Company acknowledge that Buyer is entering into the Representation and Warranty Insurance Policy and that, in connection therewith, a Buyer Indemnified Party may make claims for the same Loss or series of related Losses under both this Article IX and the Representation and Warranty Insurance Policy. Seller and the Company further acknowledge and agree that the denial of any claim by any Buyer Indemnified Party under the Representation and Warranty Insurance Policy shall not be construed as, or used as evidence that, such Buyer Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification under this Article IX.

Section 10.1    Survival. The representations and warranties of the Company, the Seller and Buyer contained in this Agreement or in any instrument delivered under this Agreement will survive the Closing solely for purposes of Article IX, and will terminate on the 12-month anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Expiration Date”); provided that if any Party makes a claim, in accordance with Section 9.6 with respect to any specific representation, warranty, covenant or agreement prior to the Expiration Date, and such claim is not fully and finally resolved prior to the Expiration Date, such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement shall survive solely with respect to such claim until such claim is finally and fully resolved. The covenants and agreements of the Parties which by their terms contemplate actions or impose obligations following the Closing shall survive the Closing and remain in full force and effect in accordance with their terms, and the covenants and agreements of the Parties which by their terms contemplate full performance at or prior to the Closing shall survive the Closing until the 12- month anniversary of the Closing Date.

Section 10.2    Entire Agreement. This Agreement (together with the Disclosure Letter and Exhibits to this Agreement), the Confidentiality Agreement and the Ancillary Documents constitute the entire agreement among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, that may have been made or entered into by or among any of the Parties or any of their respective Affiliates relating to the Transactions.

Section 10.3    Assignment. This Agreement shall not be assigned by any party hereto (whether by operation of law or otherwise), other than for collateral purposes, without the prior written consent of Buyer and the Seller; provided that Buyer may, without the consent of the Seller, assign, in its sole discretion, any or all of its rights, interests and obligations under this Agreement to any of its direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiaries, but no such assignment shall relieve Buyer of any of its obligations hereunder. Any attempted assignment of this Agreement not in accordance with the terms of this Section 10.3 shall be void.

Section 10.4    Notices. All notices, requests, claims, demands and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be given (and shall be deemed to have been duly given upon receipt) by delivery in person, by facsimile, E‑mail (followed by overnight courier/having obtained electronic delivery thereof), or by registered or certified mail (postage prepaid, return receipt requested) to the other Parties as follows:

Section 10.5    Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the Law of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware.

Section 10.6    Fees and Expenses. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, all fees and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Ancillary Documents, including the fees and disbursements of counsel, financial advisors and accountants, shall be paid by the Party incurring such fees or expenses; provided that in the event that the Closing is consummated, Buyer shall, or shall cause the Company to, pay all Unpaid Seller Expenses.

The initial press release by Buyer with respect to the execution of this Agreement shall be in the form heretofore agreed by the Parties, and none of the Parties nor any of their respective representatives shall issue any other press releases or make any other public announcements with respect to this Agreement or the Transactions without the prior written consent of Buyer or the Seller, as the case may be. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such press release or public announcement, including the disclosure of this Agreement, may be made if required by applicable Law or a securities exchange rule; provided that the Party required to make such press release or public announcement shall, to the extent practicable, confer with the other Parties concerning the timing and content of such press release or public announcement before the same is made.

The term “this Agreement” means this Stock Purchase Agreement together with the Disclosure Letter and exhibits hereto, as the same may from time to time be amended, modified, supplemented or restated in accordance with the terms hereof. The headings contained in this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. No Party, nor its respective counsel, shall be deemed the drafter of this Agreement for purposes of construing or enforcing the provisions hereof, and all provisions of this Agreement shall be construed according to their fair meaning and not strictly for or against any Party, and no presumption or burden of proof will arise favoring or disfavoring any Person by virtue of its authorship of any provision of this Agreement.

disclosed in any section of the Disclosure Letter referenced by a particular section in this Agreement shall be deemed to have been disclosed with respect to every other section in this Agreement to the extent the disclosure is reasonably apparent on its face to be relevant to such other sections. The specification of any dollar amount in the representations or warranties contained in this Agreement or the inclusion of any specific item in any section of the Disclosure Letter is not intended to imply that such amounts, or higher or lower amounts or the items so included or other items, are or are not material, and no Party shall use the fact of the setting of such amounts or the inclusion of any such item in any dispute or controversy as to whether any obligation, items or matter not described herein or included in any section of the Disclosure Letter is or is not material for purposes of this Agreement.

This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each Party and its successors and permitted assigns and, except as provided in Section 6.5 and Article IX, nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other person any rights, benefits or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.

Upon such determination that any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or unenforceable under applicable Law, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the Transactions are consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

Section 10.12    Amendment. Prior to the Closing, this Agreement may be amended or modified only in accordance with a written agreement executed and delivered by duly authorized officers of Buyer and the Seller. After the Closing, this Agreement may be amended or modified only by written agreement executed and delivered by duly authorized officers of Buyer and the Seller. This Agreement may not be modified or amended except as provided in the immediately preceding two sentences and any purported amendment by any Party or Parties hereto effected in a manner which does not comply with this Section 10.12 shall be void. Notwithstanding anything

herein to the contrary, Sections 8.2(a), 10.10, 10.15 and 10.16 and this Section 10.12 (and any provision of this Agreement of the extent a modification, waiver or termination of such provision would modify the substance of Sections 8.2(a), 10.10, 10.15 and 10.16 and this Section 10.12) may not be modified, waived or terminated in a manner that is adverse in any material respect to the Lender Related Parties without the prior written consent of each Lender.

Section 10.13    Extension; Waiver. At any time prior to the Closing, the Seller (on behalf of itself and the Company) may (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of Buyer contained herein, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of Buyer contained herein or in any document, certificate or writing delivered by Buyer pursuant hereto or (c) waive compliance by Buyer with any of the agreements or conditions contained herein. At any time prior to the Closing, Buyer may (i) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the Company or the Seller contained herein, (ii) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of the Company and the Seller contained herein or in any document, certificate or writing delivered by the Company or the Seller pursuant hereto or (iii) waive compliance by the Company and the Seller with any of the agreements or conditions contained herein. Any agreement on the part of any Party to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in a written instrument signed on behalf of such Party. Any waiver of any term or condition shall not be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach or a subsequent waiver of the same term or condition, or a waiver of any other term or condition of this Agreement. The failure of any Party to assert any of its rights hereunder shall not constitute a waiver of such rights.

Section 10.14    Counterparts; Facsimile Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by facsimile or scanned pages shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart to this Agreement.

Section 10.15    WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT EACH HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION (I) ARISING, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR (II) IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO IN RESPECT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO (INCLUDING ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, UNDER THE DEBT FINANCING, ANY ALTERNATIVE DEBT FINANCING, THE DEBT FINANCING COMMITMENT, ANY ALTERNATIVE DEBT COMMITMENT LETTERS OR THE PERFORMANCE OF ANY OF THE FOREGOING), IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, EQUITY OR OTHERWISE. THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT EACH HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY AND THAT THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OF A COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE PARTIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.

Section 10.16    Jurisdiction and Venue. Each of the Parties submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware (or, if the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any state or federal court within the State of Delaware), in any Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, agrees that all claims in respect of the Proceeding may be heard and determined in any such court and agrees not to bring any Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any other court. Each of the Parties waives any defense of inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any Proceeding so brought and waives any bond, surety or other security that might be required of any other Party with respect thereto. Each Party agrees that service of summons and complaint or any other process that might be served in any Proceeding may be made on such party by sending or delivering a copy of the process to the Party to be served at the address of the Party and in the manner provided for the giving of notices in Section 10.4. Nothing in this Section 10.16, however, shall affect the right of any Party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by Law. Each Party agrees that a final, non-appealable judgment in any Proceeding so brought shall be conclusive and may be enforced by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of the Parties agrees that it will not bring or support any action, cause of action, claim, cross-claim or third party claim of any kind or description, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against any of the Lender Related Parties in any way relating to this Agreement or any of the Transactions, including any dispute arising out of or relating in any way to the Debt Financing or the Debt Financing Commitment or the performance of any of the foregoing, in any forum other than a court of competent jurisdiction located within the County of New York, New York, whether a state or Federal court.

Section 10.17    Remedies.

(a)    Except as otherwise expressly provided herein (including Section 8.2(a)), any and all remedies provided herein will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by Law or equity upon such Party, and the exercise by a Party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy. The Parties agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that the Parties do not perform their respective obligations under the provisions of this Agreement (including failing to comply with its obligations under Section 6.11 or take such actions as are required of them hereunder to consummate the Transactions) in accordance with their specific terms or otherwise breach such provisions. It is accordingly agreed that, subject to Section 8.2 and Section 10.17(b), prior to the valid termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1, the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement (including Section 6.11 and each Party’s obligations to consummate the Transactions if it is required to do so hereunder), in each case without posting a bond or undertaking, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at Law or in equity. Subject to Section 10.17(b), the foregoing right shall include the right of the Company or the Seller to cause Buyer to comply with its obligations under Section 6.11 with respect to the Debt Financing Commitment. Each of the Parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief when expressly available pursuant

to the terms of this Agreement on the basis that the other Parties have an adequate remedy at Law or an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at Law or equity.

(b)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is explicitly agreed that the Company’s and the Seller’s ability to seek specific performance of Buyer’s obligations to effect the Closing under Section 2.2 shall be subject to the requirements that (i) the Debt Financing has been funded or will be funded at the Closing and (ii) the Company and the Seller have irrevocably confirmed by written notice to Buyer that all conditions set forth in Section 7.3 have been satisfied (other than conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied by actions taken at the Closing) and that if specific performance is granted and the Debt Financing is funded, then each of them will take such actions under their control to cause the Closing to occur.

Section 10.18    Non-Recourse. All claims or causes of action (whether in contract or in tort, in Law or in equity) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement or the other Ancillary Documents, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement or the other Ancillary Documents (including any representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Agreement or the other Ancillary Documents or as an inducement to enter into this Agreement or the other Ancillary Documents), may be made only against the entities that are expressly identified as parties hereto and thereto. No Person who is not a named party to this Agreement or the other Ancillary Documents, including any past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney or representative of any named party to this Agreement or the other Ancillary Documents (“Non-Party Affiliates”), shall have any liability (whether in contract or in tort, in Law or in equity, or based upon any theory that seeks to impose liability of an entity party against its owners or affiliates) for any obligations or liabilities arising under, in connection with or related to this Agreement or such other Ancillary Document (as the case may be) or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of this Agreement or such other Ancillary Document (as the case may be) or the negotiation or execution hereof or thereof; and each Party waives and releases all such liabilities, claims and obligations against any such Non-Party Affiliates. Non-Party Affiliates are expressly intended as third party beneficiaries of this provision of this Agreement.

Section 10.19    Waiver of Conflicts. Recognizing that Kirkland & Ellis LLP has acted as legal counsel to the Seller and its Affiliates and the Group Companies prior to the Closing, and that Kirkland & Ellis LLP intends to act as legal counsel to the Seller and its Affiliates (which will no longer include the Group Companies) after the Closing, each of Buyer and the Company hereby waives, on its own behalf and agrees to cause its Affiliates to waive, any conflicts that may arise in connection with Kirkland & Ellis LLP representing the Seller and/or any of its Affiliates after the Closing as such representation may relate to Buyer, any Group Company or the Transactions. In addition, all communications involving attorney client confidences between the Seller, its Affiliates or any Group Company and Kirkland & Ellis LLP in the course of the negotiation, documentation and consummation of the Transactions shall be deemed to be attorney client confidences that belong solely to the Seller and its Affiliates (and not the Group Companies). Accordingly, the Group Companies shall not, without the Seller’s consent, have access to any such communications, or to the files of Kirkland & Ellis LLP relating to its engagement with respect to the Transactions, whether or not the Closing shall have occurred. Without limiting the generality

of the foregoing, upon and after the Closing, (i) the Seller and its Affiliates (and not the Group Companies) shall be the sole holders of the attorney client privilege with respect to such engagement, and none of the Group Companies shall be a holder thereof, (ii) to the extent that files of Kirkland & Ellis LLP in respect of such engagement constitute property of the client, only the Seller and its Affiliates (and not the Group Companies) shall hold such property right and (iii) Kirkland & Ellis LLP shall have no duty whatsoever to reveal or disclose any such attorney client communications or files to any of the Group Companies by reason of any attorney client relationship between Kirkland & Ellis LLP and any of the Group Companies or otherwise. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 10.19, the Seller and its Affiliates shall cause Kirkland & Ellis LLP to keep the files and communications referred to in the foregoing clauses (ii) and (iii) confidential and this Section 10.19 shall not constitute or be construed as a waiver or release of Kirkland & Ellis LLP’s obligation to keep confidential any information with respect to the Group Companies in its possession.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each of the Parties has caused this Stock Purchase Agreement to be duly executed on its behalf as of the day and year first above written.
