Disclosure of any item on any Schedule shall not constitute or be deemed an admission or indication that such item or matter is material or would have a Material Adverse Effect, and shall not imply a measure for materiality for purposes of this Agreement. No disclosure on a Schedule relating to a possible breach or violation of any Contract or Law shall be construed as an admission or indication that a breach or violation exists or has actually occurred.

ARTICLE II

PURCHASE AND SALE; CLOSING

2.1 Purchase and Sale of the Shares. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Closing, Purchaser will purchase, acquire and accept from Seller, and Seller will sell, assign and convey to Purchaser, the Shares free and clear of all Liens (other than restrictions on transfer arising pursuant to federal and state securities laws).

2.2 Closing. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the closing of the Transactions (the “Closing”) will take place by conference call and electronic (i.e., email of PDF documents) delivery of documents, at a time and on a date to be designated by Seller and Purchaser, which shall be not later than the third (3rd) Business Day following the satisfaction or waiver of each of the conditions set forth in Article IX and Article X (other than those conditions that are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to satisfaction or waiver of such conditions at the

16

Closing), or on such other time, date or location as Seller and Purchaser mutually agree (the date upon which the Closing actually occurs being referred to herein as the “Closing Date”). Except as otherwise set forth herein, all proceedings to be taken and all documents to be executed and delivered by all parties at the Closing will be deemed to have been taken and executed simultaneously.

2.3 Estimated Closing Statement. No later than three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing, the Company shall deliver to Purchaser a written statement setting forth a good faith estimate of the (i) Net Working Capital; (ii) Cash and Cash Equivalents; (iii) Transaction Expenses; (iv) Company Debt; and (v) the Tax Refund Amount together with a calculation of the Estimated Equity Value (the “Estimated Closing Statement”). On the Closing Date, or at such other time as Purchaser and Seller may mutually agree, Purchaser and Seller, or their designated representatives, shall reasonably cooperate to jointly conduct a physical count and tally of the inventory, raw material, spare parts, work in process, finished products and supplies of the Company (the “Inventory” and such count and tally, the “Inventory Count”); provided, that in no event shall such Inventory Count delay the date of the Closing (or otherwise be a condition to or delay the Closing). Such Inventory shall be valued in accordance with the Accounting Principles.

2.4 Closing Payments.

(a) At the Closing, Purchaser shall pay, or cause to be paid (on behalf of the Company and/or one or more of its Subsidiaries), by wire transfer of immediately available funds, the amount set forth in the Payoff Letters delivered pursuant to Section 3.1(c) to the accounts of the applicable lenders or other parties as set forth in the Payoff Letters.

(b) At the Closing, Purchaser shall pay, or cause to be paid (on behalf of the Company and/or one or more of its Subsidiaries), by wire transfer of immediately available funds, the Transaction Expenses set forth in the Estimated Closing Statement to the applicable recipients thereof as set forth on the Estimated Closing Statement.

(c) At the Closing, Purchaser shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by the Escrow Agent, an amount equal to the Escrow Amount to be held in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement.

(d) At the Closing, Purchaser shall pay, or cause to be paid, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated by Seller in the Estimated Closing Statement, an amount equal to the Estimated Equity Value less the Escrow Amount.

2.5 Purchase Consideration Adjustment.

(a) Closing Statement. Within seventy-five (75) days after the Closing Date (the “Reconciliation Period”), Purchaser shall cause to be prepared and delivered to Seller a statement setting forth Purchaser’s good faith calculation of the (i) Net Working Capital; (ii) Cash and Cash Equivalents; (iii) Transaction Expenses; (iv) Company Debt; and (v) Tax Refund Amount together with a calculation of Equity Value based on such amounts (the “Closing Statement”); provided, that, if Purchaser fails to timely deliver or cause to be delivered a Closing

17

Statement within seventy-five (75) days after the Closing Date, then the Estimated Closing Statement shall be deemed to be the Closing Statement for purposes of Section 2.5(c), and Seller may, in its sole discretion, deliver a Dispute Notice with respect thereto in accordance with Section 2.5(c). The Closing Statement shall include reasonable supporting detail of each of the components of Equity Value and a reconciliation of such components with the amounts delivered in the Estimated Closing Statement. The Closing Statement shall (A) be prepared based upon the books and records of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the Measurement Time in accordance with the definitions as provided in this Agreement, (B) not include any changes in assets or liabilities as a result of purchase accounting adjustments or other changes arising from or resulting as a consequence of the Transactions (including those arising from Accounting Standards Codification section 805 (i.e., Business Combinations)) and (C) be based on the facts and circumstances as they exist as of the Measurement Time and shall not take into account (for purposes of establishing reserves or otherwise) any change, circumstance, act, decision, facts, information or development occurring after the Measurement Time. The post-Closing adjustment of Equity Value as set forth in this Section 2.5 is not intended to permit the introduction of different accounting principles, methods, policies, practices, procedures, classifications, conventions, categorizations, definitions, judgments, assumptions, techniques or estimation methods with respect to financial statements (including any of the foregoing as they relate to the nature of accounts, calculation of levels of reserves or levels of accruals) from the Accounting Methodology.

(b) Initial Release of Escrow Amount.

(i) If the Equity Value set forth in the Closing Statement is greater than or equal to the Estimated Equity Value, then Purchaser and Seller shall direct the Escrow Agent to release the entire Escrow Amount to Seller promptly following the delivery of the Closing Statement pursuant to Section 2.5(a).

(ii) If the Estimated Equity Value is greater than the Equity Value set forth in the Closing Statement by an amount less than the Escrow Amount, Purchaser and Seller shall direct the Escrow Agent to release from the Escrow Amount to Seller an amount equal to the excess of (y) the Escrow Amount, less (z) the absolute value of the difference between the Estimated Equity Value and the Equity Value set forth in the Closing Statement promptly following the delivery of the Closing Statement pursuant to Section 2.5(a).

(c) Closing Statement Dispute. If Seller disputes the accuracy of the calculations reflected in the Closing Statement, Seller shall provide written notice to Purchaser no later than forty-five (45) days (such forty-five (45) day period, the “Review Period”) following delivery (or deemed delivery, as applicable) by Purchaser to Seller of the Closing Statement setting forth those items that Seller disputes (the “Dispute Notice”). If Seller does not deliver a Dispute Notice within the Review Period, then the calculation of Equity Value reflected in the Closing Statement shall be deemed final, conclusive and binding on the parties in all respects; provided, however, that the Review Period shall be extended by one day for each day during the Review Period that Purchaser has not provided access or information to Seller in accordance with Section 2.5(d). During the thirty (30) day period following delivery of a Dispute Notice, Purchaser and Seller shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such disputed items. If Purchaser and Seller, notwithstanding such good faith effort, fail to resolve the disputed items set forth in the Dispute Notice within thirty (30) days after Seller delivers the Dispute Notice to Purchaser, then Purchaser

18

or Seller shall jointly engage Grant Thornton LLP, or if such firm is unable or unwilling to accept its appointment, an independent nationally recognized accounting firm with experience in such matters and that is mutually agreed upon by Purchaser and Seller (in either case, the “Accounting Firm”), to resolve the disputed items (acting as an expert and not an arbitrator). As promptly as practicable thereafter, Purchaser and Seller shall each prepare and submit to the Accounting Firm one written presentation (only with respect to the unresolved disputed items set forth in the Dispute Notice) and one written response to the other party’s written presentation; provided, that Purchaser and Seller cannot assign a value to any disputed item that is more favorable to such party than what such party included in the Closing Statement or the Dispute Notice, as applicable; provided further, however, that copies of all such materials are concurrently provided to the other party and that discussions with the Accounting Firm may only occur in the presence (including by telephone) of the other party. As soon as practicable thereafter, but no later than thirty (30) days from the final submission of presentations from Purchaser and Seller, Purchaser and Seller shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the Accounting Firm to render its written decision (including reasonable supporting detail thereto) with respect to only the unresolved disputed items set forth in the Dispute Notice (and no other items) based solely upon the terms and provisions of this Agreement and the presentations by Purchaser and Seller and not by way of an independent review (it being acknowledged and agreed that the failure of the Accounting Firm to strictly conform to any deadline or time period contained herein shall not render the determination of the Accounting Firm invalid and shall not be a basis for seeking to overturn any determination rendered by the Accounting Firm). No formal hearing with the Accounting Firm will be held and no discovery will be permitted; provided that at the Accounting Firm’s reasonable request, Seller and Purchaser may respond to requests for additional information or to answer questions from the Accounting Firm. In resolving any disputed item, the Accounting Firm may not assign a value to any item greater than the maximum value for such item claimed by either party or less than the minimum value of such item claimed by either party. The determination of the Accounting Firm shall establish the Final Equity Value. Judgment may be entered upon the determination of the Accounting Firm in any court having jurisdiction over the party against which such determination is to be enforced. The fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be allocated to be paid by Purchaser, on the one hand, and Seller, on the other, based upon the percentage that the portion of the contested amount not awarded to each party bears to the amount actually contested by such party, as determined by the Accounting Firm. For example, if Seller claims in a Dispute Notice that the Net Working Capital is $1,000 greater than the amount determined by Purchaser in the Closing Statement, and if the Accounting Firm ultimately resolves the dispute by awarding Seller $600 of the $1,000 contested, then the costs and expenses of the Accounting Firm will be allocated 60% (i.e., 600 ÷ 1,000) to Purchaser and 40% (i.e., 400 ÷ 1,000) to Seller. Absent fraud or manifest mathematical error, all determinations made by the Accounting Firm will be final, conclusive and binding on all parties to this Agreement in all respects.

(d) Access. For purposes of complying with the terms set forth in this Section 2.5, Purchaser and the Company shall, and shall cause the Company’s Subsidiaries to, cooperate and provide to Seller and its representatives all information, records, data and working papers (including any such materials prepared by outside accountants or other advisors) and shall make available, during normal business hours, all personnel (including outside accountants and other advisors), in each case as may be reasonably requested by Seller in connection with the preparation and analysis of the Closing Statement and the resolution of any disputes with respect thereto.

19

(e) Payment of Additional Amount; Additional Release of Escrow Amount. No later than two (2) Business Days after the date on which the Final Equity Value is determined pursuant to this Section 2.5:

(i) If the Estimated Equity Value is greater than the Final Equity Value, then (A) Purchaser and Seller shall jointly instruct the Escrow Agent to release to Purchaser from the Escrow Account an amount in cash equal to the amount by which the Estimated Equity Value exceeds the Final Equity Value (the “Closing Overpayment Amount”) (or, if the Closing Overpayment Amount exceeds the then remaining Escrow Amount, to release to Purchaser the entire then remaining Escrow Amount), by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in such joint instruction and (B) Purchaser and Seller shall jointly instruct the Escrow Agent to release from the Escrow Account any remaining Escrow Amount (after payment of the amount required by clause (A) of this Section 2.5(e)(i)) to Seller.

(ii) If the Final Equity Value is greater than the Estimated Equity Value, then (A) Purchaser shall pay, or cause to be paid, to Seller, an amount in cash equal to such excess (the “Additional Amount”), and (B) Purchaser and Seller shall jointly instruct the Escrow Agent to release any remaining Escrow Amount from the Escrow Account to Seller; provided, that in no event shall the obligation of Purchaser under Section 2.5(e)(ii)(A) in respect of the Additional Amount exceed an amount equal to the Escrow Amount, it being understood and agreed that if the Additional Amount is greater than an amount equal to the Escrow Amount, the maximum payment obligation of Purchaser under Section 2.5(e)(ii)(A) shall be an amount equal to the Escrow Amount.

(iii) If the Final Equity Value is equal to the Estimated Equity Value, there will be no adjustment to the Equity Value pursuant to this Section 2.5(e) and Purchaser and Seller shall jointly instruct the Escrow Agent to release any remaining Escrow Amount from the Escrow Account to Seller.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates nor any of their respective managers, officers, directors, employees, advisors, consultants, agents or other representatives shall have any liability to Purchaser, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates for any adjustment amount pursuant to this Section 2.5 except to the extent of the Escrow Amount. Recovery from the Escrow Amount shall be the sole and exclusive remedy available to Purchaser, the Company and any of its or their respective Affiliates for any claims arising out of or relating to this Section 2.5, and neither Purchaser, nor the Company nor any of their respective Affiliates shall have any claim against Seller or any of its Affiliates or any of their respective managers, officers, directors, employees, advisors, consultants, agents or any other representatives in respect thereof.

(g) The parties agree that any amount paid under this Section 2.5 shall be treated as an adjustment to the purchase consideration for Tax purposes and, except to the extent required by applicable Tax Law, not to take any Tax position inconsistent with such treatment.

(h) This Section 2.5 is not intended to be used to adjust for errors or omissions that may be found in respect of the Latest Balance Sheet or any other balance sheet referred to in Section 5.5.

20

2.6 Withholding. Purchaser and the Company shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld under Tax Law; provided, that, (a) under current Law as of the date of this Agreement, provided that Seller delivers the certificate described in Section 3.1(b), the parties agree that no withholding is required from any amounts payable to the Seller pursuant to this Agreement, and (b) promptly upon becoming aware of any change in Law after the date of this Agreement which would require withholding from amounts otherwise payable to the Seller, the Person intending to deduct and withhold any such amounts shall (i) notify Seller in writing of its intention to deduct and withhold such amounts and the reason therefore at least ten (10) days prior to the Closing Date (or promptly after such change in Law occurs, if later, and prior to the Closing Date) or, with respect to any payment made under this Agreement after the Closing, ten (10) days prior to the due date of the applicable payment (or promptly after such change in Law, if later, and prior to the due date of the applicable payment) and (ii) fully cooperate with Seller to reduce or eliminate the amount of any such deduction or withholding to the extent permitted by applicable Law. To the extent that any such required notice is timely provided to Seller (as applicable) and amounts are so withheld and timely paid over to the appropriate Taxing Authority, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

ARTICLE VI

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF PURCHASER

Except as disclosed in the Disclosure Schedule, Purchaser hereby makes the representations and warranties contained in this Article VI to the Company and Seller as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date:

6.1 Organization, Good Standing and Qualification.

(a) Purchaser is a corporation, duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of Delaware and has the requisite power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties, assets and rights and to carry on its business as currently conducted.

(b) Purchaser is qualified to do business and is in good standing (with respect to jurisdictions that recognize the concept of good standing) as a foreign corporation or other legal entity in each jurisdiction where the ownership, leasing or operation of its assets, properties, rights or the conduct of its business requires such qualification, except where the failure to be so organized, validly existing, qualified, in good standing or to have such power or authority is not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on Purchaser’s ability to consummate the Transactions.

6.2 Corporate Authority; Approval. Purchaser has all requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and has taken all corporate action necessary to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement and each other agreement, document, instrument or certificate contemplated by this Agreement or to be executed by Purchaser in connection with the consummation of the Transactions (the “Purchaser Documents”) and to consummate the Transactions. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by Purchaser and, assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery hereof by the Company and Seller, constitutes a valid and binding obligation of Purchaser enforceable against Purchaser in accordance with its terms, subject to the Bankruptcy and Equity Exception.

38

6.3 Governmental Filings; No Violations; Certain Contracts.

(a) Except for compliance with, and filings under, the HSR Act, no notices, reports or other filings are required to be made by Purchaser with, nor are any consents, registrations, approvals, permits or authorizations required to be obtained by Purchaser from any Governmental Authority in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Purchaser and the consummation of the Transactions, except those that the failure to make or obtain, as the case may be, would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the ability of Purchaser to consummate the Transactions.

(b) The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Purchaser does not constitute or result in (i) a breach or violation of, or a default under, the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of Purchaser or (ii) with or without notice, lapse of time or both, a breach or violation of, a termination (or right of termination) or default under, the creation, cancellation, acceleration, loss, impairment or alteration or other change of any rights, benefits or obligations under, result in the payment of any fee under, or the creation of a Lien on any of the assets, properties or rights of Purchaser or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to, any Contract, or assuming (solely with respect to performance of this Agreement and consummation of the Transactions) compliance with the matters referred to in Section 6.3(a), under any Law or Permit to which Purchaser or any of its Subsidiaries is subject, except, in the case of clause (B), for any such breach, violation, termination, default, creation, cancellation, acceleration, loss, impairment, alteration, change, fee or Lien that would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on the ability of Purchaser to consummate the Transactions.

6.4 Litigation. There are no legal proceedings or material actions, suits, proceedings or Orders pending or threatened against Purchaser that are reasonably likely to prohibit or restrain the ability of Purchaser to enter into this Agreement or any Related Document or to consummate the Transactions.

6.5 Brokers and Finders. Other than Moelis & Company LLC, neither Purchaser nor any of its officers, directors or employees has engaged any broker or finder or incurred any liability for any brokerage fees, commissions or finder’s fees in connection with the Transactions.

6.6 Financial Capability. Purchaser (i) has, and at the Closing will have, sufficient immediately available internal funds (without giving effect to any unfunded financing, regardless of whether any such financing is committed) available to pay all amounts required to be paid at Closing pursuant to Article II and any expenses incurred by Purchaser in connection with the Transactions, (ii) does not know of any circumstance or condition that could reasonably be expected to prevent or substantially delay the availability of such funds at the Closing, (iii) has, and at the Closing will have, the resources and capabilities (financial or otherwise) to perform its obligations hereunder and (iv) has not incurred any obligation, commitment, restriction or liability of any kind, which would impair or adversely affect such resources and capabilities. Purchaser’s obligation to consummate the Transactions is not in any way contingent upon or otherwise subject to Purchaser’s consummation of any financing arrangements, Purchaser’s obtaining of any financing or the availability, grant, provision or extension of any financing to Purchaser.

39

6.7 Solvency. Assuming the conditions to Closing set forth in Article X are satisfied, then immediately after giving effect to all of the Transactions, Purchaser and its Subsidiaries will be Solvent. For the purpose of this Section 6.7, the term “Solvent” when used with respect to any Person, means that, as of any date of determination: (i) the amount of the “fair saleable value” of the assets of such Person shall, as of such date, exceed: (A) the value of all “liabilities of such Person, including contingent and other liabilities,” as of such date, as such quoted terms are generally determined in accordance with applicable Laws governing determinations of the insolvency of debtors; and (B) the amount that shall be required to pay the probable liabilities of such Person on its existing debts (including contingent liabilities) as such debts become absolute and matured; (ii) such Person shall not have, as of such date, an unreasonably small amount of capital for the operation of the businesses in which it is engaged or proposed to be engaged following such date; and (iii) such Person shall be able to pay its liabilities, including contingent and other liabilities, as they mature. For the purpose of this definition, “not have an unreasonably small amount of capital for the operation of the businesses in which it is engaged or proposed to be engaged” and “able to pay its liabilities, including contingent and other liabilities, as they mature” means that such Person shall be able to generate enough cash from operations, asset dispositions or refinancing, or a combination thereof, to meet its obligations as they become due. No transfer of property is being made, and no obligation is being incurred, in connection with the Transactions with the intent to hinder, delay or defraud either present or future creditors of Purchaser or any of its Subsidiaries (including, following the Closing, the Company and any of its Subsidiaries).

6.8 Investment Intent. Purchaser is acquiring the Shares for its own account, for investment only, and not with a view to any resale or public distribution thereof. Purchaser acknowledges that (a) such equity has not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”), or any state securities laws, (b) there is no public market for such equity and there can be no assurance that a public market shall develop and (c) it must bear the economic risk of its investment made pursuant to the Transactions for an indefinite period of time. Purchaser is an “Accredited Investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.

6.9 Access and Information. Purchaser and each of its representatives acknowledge and agree that they (a) have had full access to and the opportunity to review all of the documents in the “data room” maintained by Datasite or otherwise provided to Purchaser or its representatives on behalf of the Company and (b) have been afforded full access to the books and records, facilities and officers, directors, managers, employees and other representatives of the Company and its Subsidiaries for purposes of conducting a due diligence investigation with respect thereto. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that it conducted to its satisfaction an independent investigation and verification of the financial condition, results of operations, assets, liabilities, properties and projected operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries and their respective businesses, and, in making their determination to proceed with the Transactions, Purchaser and each of its Non-Party Affiliates have relied solely on the results of such independent investigation and verification and on the representations and warranties of the Company expressly and specifically set forth in Article V (as qualified by the Disclosure Schedules). Purchaser is knowledgeable about the industries in which the Company and its Subsidiaries operate, is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the Transactions and is able to bear the substantial economic risk of such investment for an indefinite period of time.

40

6.10 No Competitive Assets. Neither Purchaser nor any of its “associates” or “affiliates” (each as defined in 16 CFR 801.1(d)) (collectively, “Purchaser Entities”) hold five percent (5%) or more of the voting securities or non-corporate interests (as “hold,” “voting securities” and “non-corporate interest” are defined under 16 CFR 801) of any entity that manufactures residential or commercial garage doors for sale in the United States.

6.11 Condition of Business; No Other Representations.

(a) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that none of Seller, the Company or any other Seller Related Party or any other Person is making any representations or warranties whatsoever, express or implied, beyond those expressly given solely by the Company in Article V (as modified by the Disclosure Schedules). Purchaser further acknowledges and agrees that none of Seller, the Company or any other Seller Related Party or any other Person has made any representation or warranty, express or implied, as to the accuracy or completeness of any information regarding the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or the Transaction, beyond those expressly set forth in this Agreement in Article V (as modified by the Disclosure Schedules), and none of Seller, the Company or any other Seller Related Party or any other Person will have or be subject to any liability to Purchaser or any other Person resulting from the distribution to Purchaser or its representatives or Purchaser’s use of, any such information, including (i) any confidential information memoranda and/or management presentations (including responses to any questions, whether oral or written) distributed on behalf of the Company or any of its Affiliates relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or other publications or data room information provided to Purchaser or its representatives, or any other document, information or projection in any form provided to Purchaser or its representatives in connection with the Transaction or (ii) the pro-forma financial information, projections or other forward-looking statements of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, in each case in expectation or furtherance of the Transactions.

(b) Purchaser specifically disclaims that it is relying upon or has relied upon any representations or warranties, except for the representations and warranties in Article V (as qualified by the Disclosure Schedules), that may have been made by any Person, and acknowledges and agrees that the Company and Seller have specifically disclaimed and do hereby specifically disclaim any such other representation or warranty made by any Person.

(c) Purchaser acknowledges that the representations and warranties contained herein are for risk allocation purposes and that no officer, agent, representative or employee has, or has been given, the express or implied authority to make or negotiate any representations, warranties or agreements not specifically set forth in this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to Section 8.5, nothing in this Agreement shall limit or preclude the ability of Purchaser to bring a claim for Fraud.

Any such filings shall specifically request early termination of the waiting period under the HSR Act. Without limiting the foregoing, Purchaser, Seller and their respective Affiliates shall not extend any waiting period or comparable period under the HSR Act, other Antitrust Laws or other applicable Laws or enter into any agreement with any Governmental Authority not to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, except with the prior written consent of the other party hereto, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Subject to applicable Law, each such party shall promptly inform the other party hereto of any material oral communication with, and provide copies of material written communications with, any Governmental Authority regarding any such filings or any such transaction; provided, that materials may be redacted (i) to remove references concerning the valuation of the Company, (ii) as necessary to comply with contractual arrangements or applicable Laws and (iii) as necessary to address reasonable attorney-client or other privilege or confidentiality concerns.

Subject to applicable Law, the parties hereto will consult and cooperate with one another in advance in connection with any analyses, appearances, presentations, filings (except for HSR filings), memoranda, briefs, arguments, opinions and proposals made or submitted by or on behalf of any party hereto relating to proceedings under the HSR Act, including providing the other party a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such draft submissions. Purchaser shall pay all actual out of pocket filing fees associated with such filings but each party shall otherwise pay its own costs and expenses in preparing such filings and responding to any requests for information received from any Governmental Authority in respect of such filings, including but not limited to legal, accounting and economic analyses fees incurred in connection with filings made under the HSR Act and the related obligations set forth in this Section 7.2.

(b) Purchaser shall not, and shall cause the Purchaser Entities and its and their respective Affiliates to not, acquire, invest in or otherwise obtain any interest in or agree to acquire, invest in or otherwise obtain any interest in by merging or consolidating with, or by purchasing any assets of or equity in, or by any other manner, any Person or portion thereof if the entering into a definitive agreement relating to or the consummation of such acquisition, investment,

42

(d) In the event any proceeding by a Governmental Authority or other Person is commenced which questions the validity or legality of the Transactions or seeks damages in connection therewith, the parties hereto agree to cooperate and use all reasonable efforts to defend against such proceeding and, if an injunction or other order is issued in any such action, suit or other proceeding, to use all reasonable efforts to have such injunction or other order lifted, and to cooperate reasonably regarding any other impediment to the consummation of the Transactions.

Purchaser shall, and shall cause the Company to, maintain such policy in full force and effect from and after the Closing Date.

49

of this Section 8.2 and shall be entitled to enforce the covenants contained herein and (ii) the rights set forth in this Section 8.2 are in addition to, and not in substitution of, any other rights to indemnification or contribution that any D&O Indemnified Party may have).

Neither Seller nor the Company is making nor has authorized any Person to make any representation or warranty of any kind or nature expressed or implied other than as expressly made in Article IV and/or Article V (each as qualified by the Disclosure Schedules) and neither Seller, the Company nor any other Seller Related Party nor any other Person shall be liable in respect of the accuracy or completeness of any information provided to Purchaser or its Affiliates in connection with this Agreement. The representations and warranties of Seller in Article IV and the Company in Article V (each as qualified by the Disclosure Schedules) constitute the sole and exclusive representations and warranties made to Purchaser in connection with the Transactions. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that it has conducted to its satisfaction an independent investigation and verification of the financial condition, results of operations, assets, liabilities, properties and projected operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries and their respective businesses, and, in making their determination to proceed with the Transactions, Purchaser and each of their Non-Party Affiliates have relied solely on the results of such independent investigation and verification and on the representations and warranties of Seller and the Company, each as expressly and specifically set forth in Article IV and/or Article V (each as qualified by the Disclosure Schedules). In particular, without limiting the generality of this Section 11.3, neither Seller nor the Company is making nor has authorized any Person to make any representation or warranty, and disclaims all liability and any responsibility for any such representation or warranty, with respect to (a) any estimates, predictions, projections, pro-forma financial information, forecasts or budgets previously delivered or made available to (or otherwise acquired by) Purchaser or any of its Affiliates or

56

representatives concerning future revenues, expenses, expenditures, financial condition, assets, liabilities or results of operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries, (b) the confidential information memorandum or similar document and any management presentation provided to Purchaser or any of its Affiliates in connection with the sale process for the Company, (c) any information delivered or made available pursuant to Section 7.5 or (d) any other information or documents made available to Purchaser or its Affiliates or representatives with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries in any online data room established for the sale of the Company and its Subsidiaries, except as expressly covered in Article IV or Article V. Except as set forth expressly in this Agreement, the condition of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries shall be “as is” and “where is” and neither Seller nor the Company makes any warranty of merchantability, suitability, fitness for a particular purpose or quality with respect to any of the assets of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or as to the condition or workmanship thereof or the absence of any defects therein, whether latent or patent. Except for the representations and warranties in Article IV and/or Article V (each as qualified by the Disclosure Schedules), Purchaser specifically disclaims that it is relying upon or has relied upon any such other representations or warranties that may have been made by any Person, and acknowledges and agrees that the Company and Seller have specifically disclaimed and do hereby specifically disclaim any such other representation or warranty made by any Person.

11.4 Certain Acknowledgements. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the agreements contained in this Article XI are an integral part of the Transactions and that without these agreements set forth in this Article XI the Company and Seller would not enter into this Agreement or otherwise agree to consummate the Transactions.

ARTICLE XII

TERMINATION

12.1 Termination. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, this Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing as follows:

(a) by the mutual written consent of Purchaser and the Company;

(b) by Purchaser or the Company, upon written notice to the other, if the Closing shall not have occurred on or prior to the close of business on the date that is ninety (90) days from the date hereof (the “Outside Date”); provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 12.1(b) shall not be available to a party if such party is in breach of any covenant, agreement, representation or warranty contained in this Agreement, which breach has prevented the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Section 10.1(a) or Section 10.1(b) (in the case of breach by Purchaser) or Section 9.1(a) or Section 9.1(b) (in the case of breach by the Company); provided, further, that the Outside Date shall automatically be extended by one or more thirty (30) day extensions (provided that, in no event shall such extensions exceed five hundred and forty (540) days in the aggregate), if the condition to Closing set forth in Section 9.2 (as it relates to the Antitrust Laws), Section 9.3, Section 10.2 (as it relates to the Antitrust Laws) or Section 10.3 remains unsatisfied or unwaived on the Outside Date (“Antitrust Approvals”); provided, further, that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 12.1(b) shall not be available to any party during the pendency of any proceeding for specific performance of this Agreement provided by Section 13.15, and in such case, the Outside Date shall automatically be extended following completion of such proceeding such that the Outside Date shall be ten (10) Business Days following the completion of such proceeding;

57

(c) by Purchaser or the Company, upon written notice to the other party, if a Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction and residing in a jurisdiction in which the Company or its Subsidiaries does business has issued an Order or any other action permanently enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the Transactions, and such Order or other action has become final and non-appealable; provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 12.1(c) shall not be available to any party whose breach of any provision of this Agreement results in or causes such Order or other action or if such party is in breach of any covenant, agreement, representation or warranty contained in this Agreement, which breach has prevented the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Section 10.1(a) or Section 10.1(b) (in the case of breach by Purchaser) or Section 9.1(a) or Section 9.1(b) (in the case of breach by the Company or Seller);

(d) by the Company, if (i) Purchaser has breached or failed to perform any of its covenants or other agreements contained in this Agreement to be complied with by it such that the closing condition set forth in Section 10.1(b) would not be satisfied or (ii) there exists a breach of any representation or warranty of Purchaser contained in this Agreement such that the closing condition set forth in Section 10.1(a) would not be satisfied, and in the case of both clauses (i) and (ii) above, such breach or failure to perform has not been waived by the Company or cured prior to the earlier of (x) twenty-five (25) days after receipt of written notice thereof and (y) the Outside Date or is incapable of being cured by Purchaser by the Outside Date; provided, however, that the Company shall not be entitled to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 12.1(d) if the Company is also in breach of any covenant, agreement, representation or warranty contained in this Agreement, which has prevented or would prevent the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Section 9.1(a) or Section 9.1(b);

(e) by Purchaser, if (i) the Company has breached or failed to perform any of its covenants or other agreements contained in this Agreement to be complied with by it such that the closing condition set forth in Section 9.1(b) would not be satisfied or (ii) there exists a breach of any representation or warranty of the Company contained in this Agreement such that the closing condition set forth in Section 9.1(a) would not be satisfied, and in the case of both clauses (i) and (ii) above, such breach or failure to perform has not been waived by Purchaser or cured prior to the earlier of (x) twenty-five (25) days after receipt of written notice thereof and (y) the Outside Date or is incapable of being cured by the Company by the Outside Date; provided, however, that Purchaser shall not be entitled to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 12.1(e) if Purchaser is also in breach of any covenant, agreement, representation or warranty contained in this Agreement, which has prevented or would prevent the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Section 10.1(a) or Section 10.1(b); or

(f) by the Company, if (i) the Closing shall not have occurred on or prior to the date required pursuant to Section 2.2; (ii) all of the conditions to Closing set forth in Article IX have been satisfied at the time of such termination if the Closing were held at the time of such termination (other than conditions that either (A) by their terms, are to be satisfied at the Closing (and which are, at the time of termination of this Agreement, capable of being satisfied if the

58

Closing were to occur on such date) or (B) the failure of which to be satisfied is attributable, in whole or in part, to a breach by Purchaser of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement); (iii) the Company has notified Purchaser in writing that the Company is ready, willing and able to effect the Closing as of such date or within one (1) Business Day thereafter; and (iv) Purchaser fails to consummate the Closing on the earlier of the Outside Date or the first (1st) Business Day following the date of delivery of such written notification by the Company.

12.2 Effect of Termination.

(a) If either party terminates this Agreement in accordance with Section 12(b) or Section 12(c) (solely as a result of the Antitrust Laws), Purchaser shall pay to the Company within five (5) Business Days following delivery of the written notice of termination by the Company or Purchaser, as applicable, an amount equal to $150,000,000 (the “Antitrust Termination Fee”); provided, however, that no Antitrust Termination Fee shall be payable by Purchaser pursuant to this Section 12.2(a) if (i) Seller or the Company has not complied in all material respects with its obligations under Sections 7.1 or 7.2 or (ii) at the time of termination, the conditions to Closing set forth in Article IX have not been satisfied or waived (other than the condition set forth in Section 9.2 (as it relates to the Antitrust Laws), the condition set forth in Sections 9.3 (such conditions, the “Antitrust Conditions”) or conditions that by their terms, are to be satisfied at the Closing (and which were, on the date the Closing would have occurred but for the failure of the Antitrust Conditions to be satisfied, capable of being satisfied or waived if the Closing were to occur on such date)). Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, but subject to the proviso in Section 12.2(b), if this Agreement is terminated in circumstances where the Antitrust Termination Fee is payable and such fee is actually paid, then the Company’s right to receive the Antitrust Termination Fee pursuant to this Section 12.2(a) shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Company, Sellers and their Affiliates against the Purchaser and any of its Affiliates for any and all obligations of any kind arising out of this Agreement and any losses or damages of any kind or nature suffered or incurred by the Company, Sellers, or their Affiliates. The Parties agree and understand that in no event shall the Purchaser be required to pay the Antitrust Termination Fee on more than one occasion.

(b) In the event of termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 12.1 by Purchaser or the Company, this Agreement will become void and have no effect, without any liability or obligation on the part of Purchaser (other than any obligations it may have pursuant to Section 12.2(a)), the Company or Seller (or any other Person); provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) no such termination shall relieve any party hereto of any liability for damages to the other party hereto resulting from any Willful Breach of this Agreement prior to such termination (which damages, for the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, shall include all remedies available at law or in equity, including equitable relief (including specific performance, and in each case without the necessity of proving actual harm or posting a bond or other security), consequential, indirect, special and/or punitive damages, damages for the benefit of the bargain lost by Seller and the Company (taking into consideration relevant matters, including the opportunities forgone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the Transactions and the time value of money), and diminution in value of the Company and its Subsidiaries and the reimbursement of Seller’s and the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ costs and

59

expenses), (b) the provisions of Section 7.5(b), the last sentence of Section 7.2(a), the last sentence of Section 7.2(d), this Section 12.2 and Article XIII of this Agreement will survive any termination of this Agreement and (c) notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement or the Confidentiality Agreement to the contrary, the Confidentiality Agreement shall be deemed to be amended such that the term of the Confidentiality Agreement and each provision thereunder (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any provisions that provide for a shorter term) shall be extended to the date that is three (3) years after the date this Agreement is terminated.

ARTICLE XIII

GENERAL PROVISIONS

13.1 Expenses. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Seller and Purchaser shall bear their own expenses incurred in connection with the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and each of the Related Documents and the consummation of the Transactions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser shall be responsible for, and shall pay directly or promptly reimburse the Company for amounts paid by or on behalf of the Company, (a) all filing fees lawfully payable to or at the request of any Governmental Authority in connection with this Agreement, the Company Documents, the Purchaser Documents and the consummation of the Transactions, (b) the fees of the Escrow Agent and (c) in connection with its obligations under Sections 7.2(a), 7.2(d) and 8.2.

13.2 Submission to Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a) The parties hereby irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal and state courts in the State of New York over all claims, disputes or causes of action (whether in contract or tort or otherwise) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement or any Related Document or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement or any Related Document (including any claim or cause of action, whether in contract or tort or otherwise, based upon, arising out of or related to any representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Agreement, any Related Document or as an inducement to enter into this Agreement) and each party hereby irrevocably agrees that all suits, claims, actions and proceedings in respect of any such claim, dispute or cause of action, or any suit, action or proceeding related thereto (whether in contract or tort or otherwise, except pursuant to Section 2.5(c) above) shall be heard exclusively and determined in such courts. The parties hereby irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any objection that they may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in such court or any defense of inconvenient forum for the maintenance of any such suit, action or proceeding. Each of the parties agrees that a final judgment in any such suit, action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in any other jurisdiction by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by applicable Law.

(b) Each of the parties hereby consents to process being served by any party to this Agreement in any suit, action or proceeding by the delivery of a copy thereof in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.6. The consents to jurisdiction and service of process set forth in Section 13.2(a) and this Section 13.2(b) shall not constitute general consents to service of process in the State of New York and shall have no effect for any purpose except as provided in Section 13.2(a) and this Section 13.2(b) and shall not be deemed to confer rights on any Person other than the parties hereto.

60

(c) EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT TO ANY PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS WHETHER ARISING IN CONTRACT OR IN TORT OR OTHERWISE. EACH PARTY HERETO (i) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE OF ANY OTHER PARTY HERETO HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF ANY PROCEEDING, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (ii) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 13.2(c).

13.3 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the Schedules, Exhibits and Annexes hereto, the Related Documents and the Confidentiality Agreement) represents the entire understanding and agreement of the parties with respect to the Transactions, and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements, arrangements, contracts, discussions, negotiations, undertakings and understandings (whether written or oral and including any letters of intent, term sheets or other similar preliminary documents) among the parties with respect to the Transactions. The parties have voluntarily agreed to define their rights, liabilities and obligations with respect to the Transactions exclusively in contract pursuant to the express terms and provisions of this Agreement, the Related Documents and the Confidentiality Agreement, and the parties hereto expressly disclaim that they are owed any duties or are entitled to any remedies not expressly set forth in this Agreement, the Related Documents or the Confidentiality Agreement. Furthermore, the parties each hereby acknowledge that this Agreement embodies the justifiable expectations of sophisticated parties derived from arm’s-length negotiations, and all parties specifically acknowledge that no party has any special relationship with another party that would justify any expectation beyond that of an ordinary buyer and an ordinary seller in an arm’s-length transaction. The sole and exclusive remedies for any breach of the terms and provisions of this Agreement (including any representations and warranties set forth herein, made in connection herewith or as an inducement to enter into this Agreement) or any claim or cause of action otherwise arising out of or related to the Transactions shall be those remedies available at law or in equity for breach of contract against the parties to this Agreement only (as such contractual remedies have been further limited or excluded pursuant to the express terms of this Agreement), and the parties hereby agree that neither party hereto shall have any remedies or causes of action (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) for any statements, communications, disclosures, failures to disclose, or representations or warranties not explicitly set forth in this Agreement. All representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement are contractual in nature only and subject to the sole and exclusive remedies set forth herein.

13.4 Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement may be amended, supplemented or changed, and, other than as set forth in Section 7.3(d), any provision hereof can be waived, only by written instrument making specific reference to this Agreement signed by the party against whom enforcement of any such amendment, supplement, modification or waiver is sought;

61

provided, however, that, after the Closing, but subject to applicable Law, this Agreement may be amended, supplemented or changed, and any provision hereof can be waived, only by written instrument making specific reference to this Agreement signed by duly authorized officers or representatives of Purchaser and Seller. No action taken pursuant to this Agreement, including any investigation by or on behalf of any party, shall be deemed to constitute a waiver by the party taking such action of compliance with any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained herein. The waiver by any party of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a further or continuing waiver of such breach or as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach. No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right, power, privilege or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of such right, power or remedy by such party preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy.

13.5 Governing Law. This Agreement, the Related Documents and all claims or causes of action (whether in contract or tort or otherwise) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement and/or any Related Document or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement and/or any Related Document (including any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of or related to any representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Agreement, any Related Document and/or as an inducement to enter into this Agreement) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal Laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to conflict-of-laws principles that might require the application of the Laws of any other jurisdiction.

13.6 Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given (i) when delivered personally by hand (with written confirmation of receipt and accompanied by email in accordance with clause (ii) of this Section 13.6), (ii) when sent by email (with email confirmation of receipt) or (iii) one (1) Business Day following the day sent by overnight courier (with written confirmation of receipt and accompanied by email in accordance with clause (ii) of this Section 13.6), in each case at the following addresses (or to such other address as a party may have specified by notice given to the other party pursuant to this Section 13.6):

13.7 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any Law or public policy, that provision will be deemed separable from the remaining provisions of this Agreement, and will not affect the validity or interpretation of the other provisions of this Agreement or any Related Document, and all other terms and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the Transactions is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon any such

63

adjudication that any term or provision hereof is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, 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.

13.8 Binding Effect; Third Party Beneficiaries; Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Nothing in this Agreement shall create or be deemed to create any third party beneficiary rights in any Person not a party to this Agreement except as contemplated in Section 8.2, Section 8.5, Article XI, this Section 13.8, Section 13.9 and Section 13.16. No assignment of this Agreement or of any rights, interests or obligations hereunder may be made by any party, directly or indirectly (by operation of Law or otherwise), without the prior written consent of the other parties and any attempted assignment without the required consents shall be void. No assignment of any obligations hereunder shall relieve a party of any of its obligations pursuant to this Agreement. Upon any permitted assignment, the references in this Agreement to the assigning party shall also apply to any such assignee of such assigning party.

13.9 No Recourse Against Non-Parties. (a) 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 any Related Document, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement or any Related Document (including any representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Agreement or as an inducement to enter into this Agreement or any Related Document), may be made only against (and subject to the terms and conditions thereof) the entities that are expressly identified as parties hereto and thereto and (b) no Person who is not a named party to this Agreement or any Related Document, including, without limitation, any past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, manager, partner, equityholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney or representative of any named party to this Agreement or any Related Document (“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 any Related Document or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of this Agreement or any Related Document or its negotiation or execution, and each party hereto 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.

13.10 No Partnership Created. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to give Purchaser, directly or indirectly, the right to control or direct the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ operations prior to the Closing and, without limiting its obligations under this Agreement, the Company shall exercise complete control over its and its Subsidiaries’ operations. Furthermore, in no event shall this Agreement be deemed to create a partnership or joint venture between the Company or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and Purchaser and its Affiliates, on the other hand, and in no event shall any fiduciary or similar duty be deemed owed by the Company or any of its Affiliates to Purchaser or any of its Affiliates.

64

13.11 No Strict Construction. Notwithstanding the fact that this Agreement has been drafted or prepared by one of the parties, each of Purchaser, the Company and Seller confirm that they and their respective counsel have reviewed, negotiated and adopted this Agreement as the joint agreement and understanding of the parties hereto and the language used in this Agreement shall be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties hereto to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction shall be applied against any Person.

13.12 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original copy of this Agreement and all of which, when taken together, will be deemed to constitute one and the same agreement. This Agreement and any Related Document, and any amendments hereto or thereto, to the extent signed and delivered by email in “portable document format” (“.pdf”), or any other electronic transmission, shall be treated in all manner and respects as an original contract and shall be considered to have the same binding legal effects as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person. At the request of any party hereto or to any Related Document, each other party hereto or thereto shall re-execute original forms hereof or thereof and deliver them to all other parties.

13.13 Confidentiality. Purchaser acknowledges that all information provided to it and any of its Affiliates, agents and representatives by the Company and its Affiliates, agents and representatives in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions is subject to the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement, the terms of which are incorporated herein by Section 7.5(c) (with the same to expire as of and effective on the Closing).

13.14 Press Releases and Communications. Each party intends to issue a press release or public announcement related to this Agreement effective upon signing and shall coordinate the timing of such release with the other party. Neither party will make a public announcement related to this Agreement without prior written mutual agreement prior to May 16, 2022. Each party shall give the other party two (2) Business Days to review and comment on such press release to be issued, and each party covenants to consider the other party’s comments in good faith. Prior to the Closing, no party shall issue or make any other announcement or communication to the employees, customers or suppliers of the Company or its Subsidiaries without the prior written consent of the other party hereto, unless required by Law (in the reasonable opinion of counsel) in which case the issuing party will use reasonable best efforts to allow the other parties reasonable time to review and comment on such press release, announcement or communication prior to its issuance, distribution or publication (and in any event not less than two (2) Business Days); provided, however, that the foregoing will not restrict or prohibit the Company or any of its Subsidiaries from making any announcement to its employees, customers and other business relations to the extent the Company or such Subsidiary reasonably determines in good faith that such announcement is necessary or advisable or is necessary to comply with any applicable Law or the requirements of any Contract to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party; provided, further that Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. L.P. and its Affiliates may disclose information regarding this Agreement and the Transactions to current limited partners managed by Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. L.P. and its Affiliates, so long as such limited partners are under a duty of confidentiality with respect to such information.

13.15 Specific Performance.

(a) The parties agree that (i) irreparable damage would occur in the event that the provisions of this Agreement or obligations, undertakings, covenants or agreements of the parties were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached and (ii) monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy for any such failure to perform or any breach of this Agreement. Accordingly, it is agreed that prior to the valid termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 12.1, the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any court specified in Section 13.2 without proof of actual damages, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. Without limitation of the foregoing, the parties hereby further acknowledge and agree that prior to the valid termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 12.1, the Company, on the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other, shall each be entitled to specific performance to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of, and to prevent or cure breaches of the covenants required to be performed by Purchaser, on the one hand, or the Company or Seller, on the other, under this Agreement (including Section 7.2, and to cause Purchaser or Seller and the Company, as the case may be, to consummate the Closing and to make the payments contemplated by this Agreement, including Article II) in addition to any other remedy to which Seller or the Company, on the one hand, or Purchaser, on the other, are entitled at law or in equity.

(b) Each party agrees that it will not oppose (and hereby waives any defense in any action for) the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief as provided herein on the basis that (i) the other parties have an adequate remedy at law or (ii) an award of specific performance or other equitable remedy is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law, equity or otherwise. Any party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement when available pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction.

(c) If the Company brings an action for specific performance pursuant to this Section 13.15, and a court rules that Purchaser breached this Agreement in connection with its failure to effect the Closing in accordance with this Agreement, then Purchaser shall pay all of the Company’s costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) in connection with all actions to seek specific performance of Purchaser’s obligations pursuant to this Agreement and all actions to collect such costs or expenses. If Purchaser brings an action for specific performance pursuant to this Section 13.15, and a court rules that Seller or the Company breached this Agreement in connection with its failure to effect the Closing in accordance with this Agreement, then the Company or Seller, as the case may be, shall pay all of Purchaser’s costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) in connection with all actions to seek specific performance of the Company or Seller’s obligations pursuant to this Agreement and all actions to collect such costs or expenses. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the exercise of the Company’s, on the one hand, or Purchaser’s, on the other, right to seek specific performance pursuant to this Section 13.15 reduce, restrict or otherwise limit the Company’s or Purchaser’s, as the case may be, rights to pursue all applicable remedies at law, including terminating this Agreement pursuant to Section 12.1.

13.16 Legal Representation.
