2.7    Mechanism of Payment; Letters of Transmittal.

(a)    Not less than five (5) Business Days prior to the Effective Time, the Sellers’ Representative, as the representative of the Company Unitholders, shall appoint a bank or trust company (which bank or trust company will be reasonably acceptable to Purchaser) to act as paying agent (the “Paying Agent”) and the Sellers’ Representative shall enter into a paying agent agreement with such Paying Agent (which paying agent agreement will be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Purchaser) for the purpose of paying the Final Merger Consideration in accordance with the Distribution Waterfall. At or prior to the Effective Time, Purchaser or Merger Sub shall deliver, or Purchaser or Merger Sub shall otherwise cause to be delivered, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, to the Paying Agent, cash in an aggregate amount equal to the Aggregate Initial Consideration (the “Payment Fund”). The Payment Fund shall be used solely and exclusively for purposes of paying the consideration specified in Section 2.6 to the Company Unitholders and shall not be used to satisfy any other obligations of any member of the Company Group. The Paying Agent shall make the payments provided for in Section 2.6 out of the Payment Fund.

(b)    If a Company Unitholder delivers a Letter of Transmittal in the form of Exhibit F hereto (a “Letter of Transmittal”), duly executed and completed in accordance with the instructions thereto, to the Company prior to the Closing, a copy of which the Company shall promptly thereafter deliver to Purchaser, the Paying Agent shall pay, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Paying Agent Agreement, from the Payment Fund to such Company Unitholder at the Closing cash in an amount set forth for such Company Unitholder in the Distribution Waterfall from the Payment Fund, which amount shall be paid by the Paying Agent by check or wire transfer in accordance with the instructions provided by such Company Unitholder. Following the Closing, upon delivery of a Letter of Transmittal to the Surviving Company, duly executed and completed in accordance with the instructions thereto, such Company Unitholder shall be entitled to receive from the Payment Fund, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Paying Agent Agreement, as soon as practicable but in no event later than five (5) Business Days after such surrender, in exchange therefor, cash in an amount set forth for such Company Unitholder in the Distribution Waterfall, which amount shall be paid by the Paying Agent by check or wire transfer in accordance with the instructions provided by such Company Unitholder.

If, with respect to any Company Unit, a Letter of Transmittal shall not have been delivered by the sixth anniversary of the Closing Date (or immediately prior to such earlier date on which any Final Merger Consideration, dividends (whether in cash, equity or property) or other distributions with respect to any Company Unit would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Authority), any such amounts in respect of such Company Unit shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, become the property of the Surviving Company, free and clear of all claims or interests of any Person previously entitled thereto.

2.8    No Further Ownership Rights in the Company Units. The portion of the Final Merger Consideration paid in respect of the surrender for exchange of any Company Unit in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to be in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such Company Unit, and, upon the Effective Time, there shall be no further registration of transfers on the records of the Surviving Company of any Company Unit which was outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time.

2.9    Repaid Indebtedness; Sellers’ Transaction Expenses. It is contemplated by the parties that, upon the Closing, all Estimated Indebtedness for borrowed money of the Company Group that is listed on the “Repaid Indebtedness Schedule” attached hereto will be fully repaid at the Closing (the “Repaid Indebtedness”) and that such repayment will be funded by Purchaser in accordance with the terms herein. In order to facilitate such repayment, no later than three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing, the Company shall obtain and deliver to Purchaser customary payoff letters for all Repaid Indebtedness of the Company Group, which payoff letters shall acknowledge the aggregate principal amount and all accrued but unpaid interest and other fees and expenses constituting the Repaid Indebtedness and shall provide that upon payment of a specified amount (subject to a per diem increase, if applicable), the holder (or representative or agent, as applicable) of such Repaid Indebtedness shall release its Liens and other security interests securing such Repaid Indebtedness (if any) in, and agree to deliver or file Uniform Commercial Code Termination Statements (or execute and deliver, or authorize the execution of, or agree to file, other applicable termination and release of Lien instruments) necessary to release of record such Liens and other security interests in, the assets, properties and securities of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries (the “Payoff Letters”). In addition, it is contemplated by the parties hereto that, upon the Closing, all of the Estimated Sellers’ Transaction Expenses (to the extent not paid by the Company Group prior to the Closing) will be fully paid, and that such payment will be funded by Purchaser in accordance with the terms herein. Subject to the satisfaction of the Company Group’s conditions, covenants and obligations to be satisfied at or prior to the Closing, in connection with the Closing, Purchaser shall make payment of the Estimated Sellers’ Transaction Expenses on the Closing Date (to the extent not paid by the Company prior to the Closing) in accordance with the payment instructions provided by the Sellers’ Representative to Purchaser no later than three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing.

2.10    Working Capital, Cash, Indebtedness and Sellers’ Transaction Expenses Adjustment.

(a)    Determination of Closing Amounts. No later than three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing, the Company shall provide Purchaser with good faith estimates of (i) Working Capital of the Company Group as of immediately prior to the Closing (“Estimated Working Capital”) (prepared in accordance with the “Working Capital Schedule” attached hereto and, with respect to all Tax items included in Estimated Working Capital, calculated in a manner consistent with the manner in which the Company Group calculated its Tax liability for the fiscal year ended January 2, 2016), (ii) Cash of the Company Group as of immediately prior to the Closing (“Estimated Cash”), (iii) Indebtedness of the Company Group as of immediately prior to the Closing (“Estimated Indebtedness”) and (iv) Sellers’ Transaction Expenses as of immediately prior to the Closing (“Estimated Sellers’ Transaction Expenses”), as well the Company’s good faith calculation of the

amount of the Aggregate Initial Consideration based on such amounts. Prior to the Closing, Purchaser shall have the right to review and comment upon each such good faith estimate and the Company shall, acting in good faith, incorporate Purchaser’s comments into such estimates to the extent reasonable.

(b)    Determination of Post-Closing Adjustment. No later than sixty (60) days following the Closing, Purchaser shall deliver to the Sellers’ Representative good faith calculations of (i) the actual Working Capital of the Company Group as of immediately prior to the Closing (“Actual Working Capital”) (prepared in accordance with the “Working Capital Schedule” attached hereto), (ii) actual Cash of the Company Group as of immediately prior to the Closing (“Actual Cash”), (iii) actual Indebtedness of the Company Group as of immediately prior to the Closing (“Actual Indebtedness”) and (iv) actual Sellers’ Transaction Expenses as of immediately prior to the Closing (“Actual Sellers’ Transaction Expenses”).

(c)    Disputed Final Adjustment.

(i)    No later than sixty (60) days following the delivery by Purchaser of the calculation of Actual Working Capital, Actual Cash, Actual Indebtedness and Actual Sellers’ Transaction Expenses, the Sellers’ Representative shall notify Purchaser in writing whether it accepts or disputes the accuracy of the calculation of Actual Working Capital, Actual Cash, Actual Indebtedness and Actual Sellers’ Transaction Expenses. During such sixty (60) day period, the Sellers’ Representative and its agents shall be provided, subject to customary confidentiality restrictions, during normal business hours and upon prior written notice, with access to the financial books and records of Purchaser and the Company Group as well as any relevant information and work papers as it may reasonably request, in each case, to the extent related to Purchaser’s calculations of Actual Working Capital, Actual Cash, Actual Indebtedness and Actual Sellers’ Transaction Expenses. If the Sellers’ Representative accepts the calculation of Actual Working Capital, Actual Cash, Actual Indebtedness and Actual Sellers’ Transaction Expenses determined pursuant to Section 2.10(b), or if the Sellers’ Representative fails within such sixty (60) day period to notify Purchaser in accordance with Section 2.10(c)(iii) of any dispute with respect thereto, then the calculation of Actual Working Capital determined pursuant to Section 2.10(b) shall be the “Final Working Capital,” the calculation of Actual Cash determined pursuant to Section 2.10(b) shall be the “Final Cash,” the calculation of Actual Indebtedness determined pursuant to Section 2.10(b) shall be the “Final Indebtedness” and the calculation of Actual Sellers’ Transaction Expenses determined pursuant to Section 2.10(b) shall be the “Final Sellers’ Transaction Expenses,” which, in each case, shall be deemed final and conclusive and binding on the parties hereto and each of the other Company Unitholders.

(ii)    If the Sellers’ Representative disputes Purchaser’s calculation of Actual Working Capital, Actual Cash, Actual Indebtedness and/or Actual Sellers’ Transaction Expenses, the Sellers’ Representative shall provide written notice to Purchaser no later than sixty (60) days following the delivery by Purchaser to the Sellers’ Representative of the calculation of Actual Working Capital, Actual Cash, Actual Indebtedness and Actual Sellers’ Transaction Expenses (the “Dispute Notice”), setting forth in reasonable detail those items

that the Sellers’ Representative disputes in good faith and the Sellers’ Representative’s good faith calculation of such disputed items (which, with respect to Actual Working Capital, shall be calculated in accordance with the “Working Capital Schedule” attached hereto), and any items not so disputed shall be deemed final, conclusive and binding on the parties hereto and each of the other Company Unitholders. During the thirty (30) day period following delivery of a Dispute Notice, Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative shall negotiate in good faith with a view to resolving their disagreements over the disputed items. During such thirty (30) day period and until the final determination of Actual Working Capital, Actual Cash, Actual Indebtedness and/or Actual Sellers’ Transaction Expenses, in accordance with this Section 2.10(c)(ii) or Section 2.10(c)(iii), as the case may be, (as so determined, or as determined pursuant to Section 2.10(c)(i) above, “Final Working Capital,” “Final Cash,” “Final Indebtedness” and “Final Sellers’ Transaction Expenses,” respectively), the Sellers’ Representative and its agents shall be provided with such access to the financial books and records of Purchaser and the Company Group as well as any relevant information and work papers as reasonably necessary for the Sellers’ Representative to evaluate any disputed item. If Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative resolve their differences over the disputed items in accordance with the foregoing procedure, Final Working Capital, Final Cash, Final Indebtedness and Final Sellers’ Transaction Expenses shall be the amounts agreed upon by them in writing. If Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative fail to resolve in writing their differences over the disputed items within such thirty (30) day period, then Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative shall, within ten (10) Business Days, jointly request that a mutually agreeable accounting firm (or, if they cannot agree on an accounting firm or such firm declines the engagement, an accounting firm selected by lot from the top eight (8) accounting firms listed in Accounting Today’s then most recent annual “Top 100 Firms” listing) (the “Accounting Arbitrator”) provide an engagement letter for making a binding determination as to the disputed items in accordance with this Agreement. Either Purchaser or the Sellers’ Representative may send such joint request to the Accounting Arbitrator and failure of either to provide comments to a proposed engagement letter within five (5) Business Days of receipt of such proposed engagement letter from the Accounting Arbitrator shall be deemed acquiescence to the terms proposed by the Accounting Arbitrator and any additional or modified terms timely submitted by the other.

(iii)    Within thirty (30) calendar days after the engagement of the Accounting Arbitrator, Purchaser shall provide the Accounting Arbitrator with a submission regarding the disputed items, including any supporting documentation; thirty (30) calendar days thereafter, the Sellers’ Representative shall provide the Accounting Arbitrator a submission regarding the disputed items, including any supporting documentation; five (5) Business Days thereafter, Purchaser shall provide the Accounting Arbitrator with a reply submission, including further supporting documentation, that responds to points raised in the Sellers’ Representative’s submission; and, if requested by either party or the Accounting Arbitrator, within thirty (30) calendar days thereafter, Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative shall participate in a joint session with the Accounting Arbitrator at which they can make further oral presentations and the Accounting Arbitrator can ask questions of them. The Accounting Arbitrator will under the terms of its engagement have no more than ten (10) Business Days from the final submission of information by Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative within

which to render its written decision with respect to the disputed items (and only with respect to any unresolved disputed items set forth in the Dispute Notice) and the final calculation of Actual Working Capital, Actual Cash, Actual Indebtedness and Actual Sellers’ Transaction Expenses shall be based solely on the resolution of such disputed items. The Accounting Arbitrator shall review such submissions and base its determination solely on such submissions. In resolving any disputed item, the Accounting Arbitrator may not assign a value to any item greater than the maximum value for such item claimed by either Purchaser in its calculation pursuant to Section 2.10(b) or the Sellers’ Representative in its Dispute Notice or less than the minimum value for such item claimed by either such party therein, and must determine each disputed item using only Purchaser’s and the Sellers’ Representatives’ submissions and oral presentations (if applicable), the Accounting Principles and the definitions contained herein (including GAAP to the extent set forth in the Working Capital Schedule). The decision of the Accounting Arbitrator shall be deemed final and binding upon the parties hereto and each other Company Unitholder and shall be enforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction and the Accounting Arbitrator’s final calculation of, as applicable, Actual Working Capital shall be deemed the “Final Working Capital,” the Accounting Arbitrator’s final calculation of Actual Cash shall be deemed the “Final Cash,” the Accounting Arbitrator’s final calculation of Actual Indebtedness shall be deemed the “Final Indebtedness,” and the Accounting Arbitrator’s final calculation of Actual Sellers’ Transaction Expenses shall be deemed the “Final Sellers’ Transaction Expenses.” The fees and expenses of the Accounting Arbitrator shall be allocated to be paid by Purchaser, on the one hand, and each of the Company Unitholders, severally and not jointly, in proportion to the applicable percentage set forth on the attached “Sellers Holdings Schedule” (the “Applicable Percentage”), on the other, based upon the percentage that the portion of the contested amount not awarded to Purchaser or the Sellers’ Representative (in the case of the Company Unitholders) bears to the amount actually contested by such party, as determined by the Accounting Arbitrator.

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

(i)    Following the determination of Final Working Capital, Final Cash, Final Indebtedness and Final Sellers’ Transaction Expenses in accordance with Section 2.10(c), the Aggregate Initial Consideration shall be recalculated by substituting the Final Working Capital for the Estimated Working Capital in Section 1.1, the Final Cash for the Estimated Cash in Section 1.1, the Final Indebtedness for the Estimated Indebtedness in Section 1.1, and the Final Sellers’ Transaction Expenses for the Estimated Sellers’ Transaction Expenses in Section 1.1 (the “Adjusted Aggregate Initial Consideration”) and if (after taking into account any Upward Closing Working Capital Adjustment or Downward Closing Working Capital Adjustment at the Closing):

(A)    the Adjusted Aggregate Initial Consideration is greater than the Aggregate Initial Consideration on the Closing Date, then such difference shall be paid by Purchaser to the Sellers’ Representative (for the benefit of each of the Company Unitholders in accordance with such Person’s

Applicable Percentage) and Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative shall promptly instruct the Escrow Agent in writing to disburse to the Sellers’ Representative (for the benefit of each of the Company Unitholders in accordance with such Person’s Applicable Percentage) the then-current balance of the Adjustment Escrow Fund;

(B)    the Aggregate Initial Consideration is greater than the Adjusted Aggregate Initial Consideration, then (1) Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative shall promptly instruct the Escrow Agent in writing to disburse to Purchaser such difference and (2) the funds remaining (if any) in the Adjustment Escrow Fund, after giving effect to clause (1), shall be released to the Sellers’ Representative (for the benefit of each of the Company Unitholders in accordance with such Person’s Applicable Percentage); provided that, if the Adjustment Escrow Fund is insufficient to satisfy any such payment due to Purchaser under this Section 2.10(d)(i)(B) (an “Adjustment Escrow Shortfall”), then at Purchaser’s option Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative shall instruct the Escrow Agent in writing to disburse to Purchaser an amount equal to the Adjustment Escrow Shortfall (or any portion thereof) from the Indemnity Escrow Fund; provided, further, that if the Indemnity Escrow Fund is insufficient to satisfy any such Adjustment Escrow Shortfall, then Purchaser shall have no recourse against the Sellers’ Representative, the Company Unitholders or any other Person for recovery of any such insufficiency; and

(C)    the Aggregate Initial Consideration is equal to the Adjusted Aggregate Initial Consideration, the entire amount of the Adjustment Escrow Fund shall be released to the Sellers’ Representative (for the benefit of each of the Company Unitholders in accordance with such Person’s Applicable Percentage).

(ii)    All payments pursuant to this Section 2.10(d) shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in advance by the Sellers’ Representative or Purchaser, as applicable, and all such payments, instructions to the Escrow Agent contemplated by this Section 2.10(d) and releases from the Adjustment Escrow Fund and/or the Indemnity Escrow Fund, as applicable, shall be made on or prior to the fifth (5^th) Business Day following the earliest to occur of: (A) the expiration of the sixty (60) day period following Purchaser’s delivery of its calculation of the Actual Working Capital, Actual Cash, Actual Indebtedness and Actual Sellers’ Transaction Expenses pursuant to Section 2.10(b) if the Sellers’ Representative does not timely dispute either of such amounts pursuant to Section 2.10(c)(i); (B) the date of the Sellers’ Representative’s and Purchaser’s mutual determination of Final Working Capital, Final Cash, Final Indebtedness and Final Sellers’ Transaction Expenses, as applicable, in the event the Sellers’ Representative timely disputes any of such amounts pursuant to Section 2.10(c)(i) and the Sellers’ Representative’s and Purchaser’s differences are resolved without the engagement of an Accounting Arbitrator pursuant to Section 2.10(c)(ii); and (C) the date of the Accounting Arbitrator’s determination

of Final Working Capital, Final Cash, Final Indebtedness and/or Final Sellers’ Transaction Expenses, as applicable, pursuant to Section 2.10(c)(iii) in the event the Sellers’ Representative timely disputes any of such amounts pursuant to Section 2.10(c)(i) and the Sellers’ Representative and Purchaser are unable to resolve their differences pursuant to Section 2.10(c)(ii).

(i)    opposing any motion or action for a temporary, preliminary or permanent injunction against the Merger; and

(d)    No party hereto shall, and each party hereto shall cause its Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly take any action, including directly or indirectly acquiring or investing in any Person or acquiring, leasing or licensing any assets, or agreeing to do any of the foregoing, if doing so would reasonably be expected to prevent or delay the satisfaction of any of the conditions set forth in Sections 3.1(c), 3.1(d), 3.2(c) and 3.2(d) to be satisfied or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

None of the parties hereto shall (i) extend any waiting period under the HSR Act or any other applicable Antitrust Law or (ii) enter into any agreement with any Governmental Authority not to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, except, in each case, with the prior written consent of the other parties to this Agreement (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

4.7    Schedule Updates.

(a)    From the date hereof until the Closing, the Company shall disclose to Purchaser in writing (in the form of an updated schedule hereto), promptly upon discovery thereof, any variances from the representations and warranties contained in Article 5 hereof (each, a “Schedule Update”) resulting from any matter existing or arising prior to the date of this Agreement that was required to be but was not previously set forth in any of the schedules hereto (each such matter, an “Existing Matter”).

(b)    To the extent of the Existing Matter(s) disclosed in a Schedule Update: (i) such Schedule Update shall not amend or supplement the schedules hereto delivered on the date of this Agreement; (ii) subject to Section 4.7(c), such Schedule Update shall not affect or limit the termination rights of Purchaser set forth in Section 7.1; (iii) such Schedule Update shall not be taken into consideration for purposes of determining whether the conditions set forth in Section 3.2(a) or Section 3.2(b) have been satisfied; (iv) such Schedule Update shall not affect or limit the indemnification obligations of the Company Unitholders under Section 9.2; and (v) accordingly the Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 9.2 (subject to the applicable limitations, if any, set forth in Section 9.5) for any breaches of or inaccuracies in any of the representations and warranties contained in Article 5 that otherwise would have existed but for the Existing Matter(s) being disclosed pursuant to such Schedule Update.

(c)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Existing Matter underlying any Schedule Update would give rise to Purchaser’s right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 7.1(b) and Purchaser does not terminate this Agreement within fifteen (15) calendar days following the first date on which Purchaser’s right to terminate this Agreement under Section 7.1(b) arises, then Purchaser’s right to terminate this Agreement in respect of such Existing Matter shall be irrevocably waived.

4.8    Section 280G. Between the date hereof and the Closing Date, the Company will use prompt and commercially reasonable efforts (which efforts shall not, for clarity, include the requirement to offer or provide any additional value or any other financial accommodation to any Person) to obtain waivers and solicit shareholder approval of any payments that may, separately or in the aggregate, constitute “excess parachute payments” (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code) that may be made to individuals who are “disqualified individuals” (within the meaning of Section 280G(c) of the Code and the regulations thereunder) in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, such that such payments would not be deemed to constitute “excess parachute payments” pursuant to Section 280G of the Code; provided that, for clarity, Company shall not be in breach of this covenant solely as a result of the refusal of any disqualified individual to waive the applicable payments and submit them to the applicable stockholder vote and/or as a result of the requisite shareholder approval not to be obtained; provided, that the Company shall immediately notify Purchaser of either such circumstance.  The Company will provide drafts of the waiver, disclosure and consent documentation associated with the foregoing at least seven (7) calendar days prior to the intended dissemination thereof and will consider in good faith any comments of Purchaser thereto that are provided to the Company at least one (1) calendar day prior to such intended dissemination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that any contract,

agreement, or plan is or is contemplated to be entered into by Purchaser, the Surviving Company or any of their Affiliates and a disqualified individual who has been identified to Purchaser as such in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement before the Closing Date (the “Purchaser Arrangements”), which may reasonably constitute or require a payment to such disqualified individual that is contingent upon a change in control within the meaning the Section 280G of the Code, Purchaser shall provide a copy of such contract, agreement or plan to the Company and the Sellers’ Representative at least fifteen (15) days before the Closing Date and shall cooperate with the Company in good faith in order to calculate or determine the value (for the purposes of Section 280G of the Code) of any payments or benefits granted or contemplated therein, which may be paid or granted in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement that could constitute a “parachute payment” under Section 280G of the Code; provided that, in any event, the Company’s failure to include any Purchaser Arrangements which are not communicated to the Company prior to the intended dissemination of the disclosure and consent documentation in the stockholder voting materials described herein will not result in a breach of the covenants set forth in this Section 4.8.

4.9    Financing.

(a)    Subject to the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, Purchaser shall use, and shall cause the Subsidiaries of Purchaser to use, their respective commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things reasonably necessary or advisable to arrange and consummate the Financing, including using commercially reasonable efforts to (i) maintain in effect the Debt Commitment Letter and satisfy on a timely basis (taking into account the expected timing of the Marketing Period) all conditions to the Financing in the Debt Commitment Letter and the definitive agreements to be entered into pursuant thereto, to the extent applicable to or within the control of Purchaser or its Subsidiaries (other than any condition where the failure to be so satisfied is a direct result of the Company Group’s failure to provide the cooperation described in Section 4.1(i)), (ii) negotiate, execute and deliver definitive agreements with respect to such Financing on the terms contained in the Debt Commitment Letter or otherwise no less favorable to Purchaser and Merger Sub than the terms and conditions (including the “flex” provisions) contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter and the Fee Letter, (iii) comply with its obligations under the Debt Commitment Letter, including to satisfy on a timely basis all conditions precedent to funding in the Debt Commitment Letter and such definitive agreements thereto and to consummate the Financing at or prior to the Closing, (iv) in the event that the conditions to Closing under this Agreement and the conditions to the availability of the Financing under the Debt Commitment Letter are satisfied, obtain a sufficient amount of the Financing to enable Purchaser and Merger Sub to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (v) if appropriate and practical under the circumstances and available sources of cash are not otherwise available to consummate the transactions contemplated herein, enforce its rights under the Debt Commitment Letter and Fee Letter. Purchaser and Merger Sub shall keep Sellers’ Representative and the Company informed on a reasonably current basis in reasonable detail of the status of its efforts to arrange the Financing and provide the Company with copies of all executed definitive agreements related to the Financing. Subject to the terms and upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter, Purchaser and Merger Sub shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Debt Financing Sources to provide the Financing on

the Closing Date.  In the event any portion of the Financing becomes unavailable on the terms and conditions (including any “flex” provisions) contemplated in the Debt Commitment Letter and the Fee Letter, and such portion is reasonably required to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including without limitation, to pay the Final Merger Consideration, the Repaid Indebtedness, the Final Sellers’ Transaction Expenses and all other fees and expenses and other payment obligations required to be paid by Purchaser and Merger Sub in connection with this Agreement, Purchaser and Merger Sub shall (A) promptly notify Sellers’ Representative and the Company and (B) use their commercially reasonable efforts to arrange to obtain Alternative Financing in an amount at least equal to the amount of such portion, upon terms and conditions not materially less favorable to Purchaser and its Subsidiaries than the terms and conditions set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter, as promptly as practicable following the occurrence of such event. Purchaser and Merger Sub shall promptly (and in any event within two (2) Business Days) notify Sellers’ Representative and the Company in writing (I) of any breach or default by Purchaser or Merger Sub under the Debt Commitment Letter or any definitive agreements related thereto or, to the knowledge of the Purchaser or Merger Sub, any other party to the Debt Commitment Letter or any definitive agreements related thereto, (II) if for any reason either Purchaser or Merger Sub at any time believes it will not be able to obtain all or any portion of the Financing on the terms, in the manner or from the sources contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter or any definitive agreements related thereto and (III) of the receipt by either Purchaser or Merger Sub or any of their respective Representatives of any written notice or other written communication from any Debt Financing Source or other Person with respect to (x) any actual or potential breach (or threatened breach), default, termination or repudiation by any party to the Debt Commitment Letter, any definitive agreement related thereto or any provision of the financing contemplated pursuant to the Debt Commitment Letter or any definitive agreement related thereto (including any proposal by any lender named in the Debt Commitment Letter to withdraw, terminate, reduce the amount of financing or delay the timing of financing contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter), including any Alternative Financing or (y) any material dispute or disagreement between or among any parties to the Debt Commitment Letter or any definitive agreement related thereto that Purchaser or Merger Sub believes in good faith could result in an inability to receive or a delay in Purchaser’s or Merger Sub’s receipt of the proceeds of the Financing, and in any such case, Purchaser and Merger Sub shall provide any information relating to any of the foregoing circumstances as soon as reasonably practicable (and in any event within two (2) Business Days) following the Company’s reasonable request therefor; provided, that in no event shall Purchaser or Merger Sub be required to disclose any information that is subject to attorney-client or similar privilege if Purchaser or Merger Sub has used commercially reasonable efforts to disclose such information in a way that would not waive such privilege. In the event that Purchaser or Merger Sub does not provide access or information in reliance on the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, Purchaser or Merger Sub shall provide written notice to the Company that such access or information is being withheld and Purchaser and Merger Sub shall use commercially reasonable efforts to communicate, to the extent feasible, the applicable information in a way that would not violate the applicable obligation or risk waiver of such privilege. Prior to the Closing, neither Purchaser nor Merger Sub shall, without the Company’s prior written consent, consent to (1) any amendment or modification to, or any waiver of any provision or remedy under, the Debt Commitment Letter or the Fee Letter if such amendment, modification or waiver (a) imposes new or additional conditions, or otherwise expands or modifies any of the conditions, to Purchaser’s or Merger Sub’s receipt of the Financing, (b)

extends the timing of the funding of the commitments thereunder, or reduces the aggregate cash amount of the funding commitments thereunder required to be paid by Purchaser and Merger Sub under this Agreement below the amount required to consummate the transactions contemplated in the Agreement, or (c) otherwise amends, modifies or waives, any provision of the Debt Commitment Letter in a manner that would reasonably be expected to prevent, delay or adversely affect the ability of the Purchaser or Merger Sub to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or otherwise delay, hinder or make less likely the occurrence of the Closing or adversely impact the ability of Purchaser or Merger Sub to enforce its rights against the other parties to the Commitment Letter or other definitive agreements related thereto (provided, that Purchaser or Merger Sub may replace or amend the Debt Commitment Letter to add lenders, underwriters, lead arrangers, bookrunners, initial purchasers, placement agents, syndication agents or similar entities that have not executed the Debt Commitment Letter as of the date hereof) or (2) early termination of the Debt Commitment Letter unless it has been replaced by Alternative Financing in accordance with this Section 4.9. Purchaser and Merger Sub shall furnish to Sellers’ Representative and the Company a copy of any amendment, modification, waiver or consent of or relating to the Debt Commitment Letter promptly upon execution thereof (which copy may be redacted in the manner described in Section 6.7).

(b)    In the event that the Debt Commitment Letter is amended, replaced, supplemented or otherwise modified, including as a result of obtaining Alternative Financing, or Purchaser otherwise obtains Alternative Financing, (i) true, complete and correct copies of the definitive documentation for any such Alternative Financing (the “Alternative Financing Documents”) shall be provided by the Purchaser to the Company promptly execution thereof, (ii) the Sellers and the Company shall comply with their respective covenants in this Section 4.9 with respect to the Debt Commitment Letter as so amended, replaced, supplemented or otherwise modified and with respect to such Alternative Financing to the same extent that the Purchaser, the Sellers and the Company would have been obligated to comply with respect to the Financing, including using their reasonable best efforts to arrange and obtain Alternative Financing in an amount sufficient to consummate the Transactions with terms and conditions not materially less favorable (taken as a whole) to Purchaser and Merger Sub than the terms and conditions (taken as a whole) set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter and which would not reasonably be expected to prevent, impede or delay the consummation of the Financing or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (iii) no such amendment, replacement, supplement or other modification shall result in additional or expanded covenants of the Sellers or the Company Group, and (iv) references to the “Financing” (and other like terms in this Agreement) shall be deemed to include such Alternative Financing, or the Financing as so amended, replaced, supplemented or otherwise modified.

(c)    All non-public or other confidential information provided by the Sellers, the Company, the Company Subsidiaries or their respective Representatives pursuant to this Section 4.9 shall be kept confidential in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement, Section 9.2 and any other applicable terms of this Agreement; provided that Purchaser shall be permitted to disclose customary projections with respect to the Company and its business to the Debt Financing Sources identified in the Debt Commitment Letter and any provider of Alternative Financing and their respective Representatives in connection with the Financing or any Alternative Financing so long as such Persons agree to be bound by the confidentiality provisions of the Confidentiality Agreement

or other reasonable and customary confidentiality undertakings in respect of transactions similar to that contemplated by the Financing or any Alternative Financing and of which the Company is a third party beneficiary.

(d)    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall any failure to obtain any Financing (or any Alternative Financing) nor any failure to fund any Financing (or any Alternative Financing) relieve Purchaser or Merger Sub of any obligation under or in respect of this Agreement, including the obligation to timely consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as required hereby, and neither the obtaining nor the availability or funding of any Financing (or any Alternative Financing) shall constitute a condition to Purchaser’s or Merger Sub’s obligation to timely consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as required hereby. Each of Purchaser and Merger Sub reaffirms its obligation to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement irrespective and independently of the availability of the Financing (or any Alternative Financing), subject to satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article 3.

(e)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, nothing contained in this Section 4.9 shall require, and in no event shall the commercially reasonable efforts of Purchaser or Merger Sub be deemed or construed to require, Purchaser or Merger Sub to, in connection with Alternative Financing, pay any fees or any interest rates applicable to the Financing in excess of those contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter (or the market flex provisions in the Fee Letter), or agree to any market flex term less favorable to Purchaser or Merger Sub, taken as a whole, than such corresponding market flex term contained in or contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter or the Fee Letter (in either case, whether to secure waiver of any conditions contained therein or otherwise).

No Person is entitled to any brokerage commissions, finder’s fees or similar compensation in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement based on any arrangement or agreement made by or on behalf of Purchaser or Merger Sub, except as set forth on the attached “Purchaser Brokerage Schedule.”

6.7    Financing. Purchaser has provided to the Company true, correct and complete copies of the fully executed commitment letter, dated as of the date hereof, among Purchaser’s indirect parent, Prestige Brands Holdings, Inc., and the Debt Financing Sources party thereto, including all exhibits, schedules, annexes and amendments to such letter in effect as of the date of this Agreement (collectively, the “Debt Commitment Letter”) pursuant to which the Debt Financing Sources party thereto have agreed, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter, to provide debt financing to Purchaser in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby in an aggregate amount not to exceed the amount set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter, and the related fee letter (the “Fee Letter”) (provided, that provisions in the Fee Letter related to fees, pricing, economic “flex” terms, thresholds, caps and other items not affecting conditionality, availability or the amount of the Financing that would otherwise be available to Purchaser and Merger Sub have been redacted) from the Debt Financing Sources. As of the date of this Agreement, the Debt Commitment Letter and the Fee Letter have not been amended or modified, except as permitted pursuant to Section 4.9, no such amendment or modification to the Debt Commitment Letter or the Fee Letter is contemplated, the respective commitments contained therein have not been withdrawn, rescinded or otherwise modified in any respect, and the Purchaser has not entered into any side letters or other agreements or arrangements related to the Financing, other than as set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter and the related Fee Letter, (a) which would impose conditions or other contingencies to or could affect the availability or funding of the full amount of the Financing or (b) prohibiting or seeking to prohibit any Person from providing or seeking to provide financing to any Person in connection with a transaction relating to the Company. The obligations of the parties identified in the Debt

Commitment Letter to make the full amount of the Financing available to Purchaser and Merger Sub on the terms and conditions specified therein are not subject to any conditions precedent or other contingencies other than as set forth therein and, as of the date of this Agreement, the Debt Commitment Letter is in full force and effect and is the legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligations of Purchaser and Merger Sub and, to the knowledge of the Purchaser, each of the other parties thereto. Each of Purchaser and Merger Sub has fully paid any and all commitment fees or other fees that are required to be paid pursuant to the terms of the Debt Commitment Letter and the Fee Letter on or prior to the date of this Agreement. As of the date of this Agreement, neither Purchaser nor Merger Sub has reason to believe that it will be unable to satisfy any term or condition to be satisfied by it as a condition to the availability of the Financing contained in the Debt Commitment Letter (and the payment of all associated costs and expenses) or that the Financing will not be made available to Purchaser or Merger Sub at the Closing, and no event has occurred that, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would or would reasonably be expected to constitute a default or breach or failure to satisfy a condition on the part of Purchaser or Merger Sub (or to the Purchaser’s knowledge, any other party thereto) under the Debt Commitment Letter or would otherwise be reasonably likely to result in any portion of the Financing contemplated thereby to be unavailable, other than any such default, breach or failure that has been irrevocably waived by the parties providing the Financing or otherwise cured in a timely manner by Purchaser or Merger Sub to the satisfaction of such parties providing the Financing. Purchaser and Merger Sub will have on the Closing Date sufficient unrestricted cash on hand and available financing arrangements to pay all amounts required to be paid by Purchaser and Merger Sub at the Closing pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and to pay all of its related fees and expenses. Neither Purchaser nor Merger Sub has reason to believe that such available cash shall not be available or that the debt shall not be funded, and neither Purchaser nor Merger Sub has made any misrepresentation in connection with obtaining such debt financing commitments. In no event shall the receipt by, or the availability of any funds or financing to, Purchaser or any of its Affiliates or any other financing be a condition to Purchaser’s or Merger Sub’s obligation to consummate the transactions contemplated hereunder.

6.8    Solvency.

For purposes of this Section 6.8, “Solvent” means that, with respect to any Person and as of any date of determination, (i) the amount of the “present fair saleable value” of the assets of such Person, will, as of such date, exceed the amount of all “liabilities of such Person, contingent or otherwise,” as of such date, as such quoted terms are generally determined in accordance with applicable federal laws governing determinations of the insolvency of debtors, (ii) the present fair saleable value of the assets of such Person will, as of such date, be greater than the amount that will be required to pay the liabilities of such Person on its indebtedness as its indebtedness becomes absolute and matured, (iii) such Person will not have, as of such date, an unreasonably small amount of capital with which to conduct its business and (iv) such Person will be able to pay its indebtedness as it matures. For purposes of the foregoing definition only,

“indebtedness” means a liability in connection with another Person’s (x) right to payment, whether or not such a right is reduced to judgment, liquidated, unliquidated, fixed, contingent, matured, unmatured, disputed, undisputed, legal, equitable, secured or unsecured or (y) right to any equitable remedy for breach of performance if such breach gives rise to a right of payment, whether or not such right to an equitable remedy is reduced to judgment, fixed, contingent, matured, unmatured, disputed, undisputed, secured or unsecured.

6.9    Disclaimer. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, neither Purchaser nor Merger Sub makes any representation or warranty, express or implied, at law or in equity and any such other representations or warranties are hereby expressly disclaimed. Without limiting the generality or the foregoing, neither Purchaser nor Merger Sub shall be deemed to make to any Company Unitholder or any member of the Company Group any representation or warranty other than as expressly made by such Person in this Agreement. Nothing in this Section 6.9 shall prohibit, restrict or otherwise limit any Action by a Company Unitholder hereunder in respect of actual and intentional fraud in the making of any of the representations and warranties in this Article 6.

Neither the Sellers’ Representative nor any agent employed by Sellers’ Representative shall incur any liability to any Company Unitholder relating to the performance of its duties hereunder except for actions or omissions constituting fraud, bad faith or willful misconduct. The Sellers’ Representative shall not have by reason of this Agreement a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Company Unitholder, except in respect of amounts actually received on behalf of such Company Unitholder. The Sellers’ Representative shall not be required to make any inquiry concerning either the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Agreement.

Any balance of the Sellers’ Representative Expense Fund not incurred for such purposes shall be returned to the Company Unitholders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentage.

(f)    It is acknowledged by each of the parties hereto that the Company Group, the Company Unitholders, the Sellers’ Representative (and its Affiliates) and each of their respective directors, managers, members, officers, and employees have retained Kirkland & Ellis LLP (excluding those attorneys and agents thereof who represent Purchaser and Merger Sub with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, “Sellers’ Counsel”) to act as their counsel in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and that Sellers’ Counsel has not acted as counsel for any other Person in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and that no other party or Person has the status of a client of the Sellers’ Counsel for conflict of interest or any other purposes as a result thereof. Purchaser and the Company hereby agree that, in the event that a dispute arises between Purchaser, the Company, the Company Unitholders or any of their respective Affiliates, directors, managers, members, officers or employees and the Sellers’ Representative or any of its Affiliates, Sellers’ Counsel may represent the Sellers’ Representative or any of its Affiliates in such dispute even though the interests of the Sellers’ Representative or any of its Affiliates may be directly adverse to Purchaser, any member of the Company Group, any Company Unitholder or any of their respective Affiliates, directors, managers, officers or employees and even though Sellers’ Counsel may have represented a member of the Company Group in a matter substantially related to such dispute, and Purchaser, the Company and their respective Affiliates hereby waive, on behalf of themselves and each of their Affiliates, any conflict of interest in connection with such representation by Sellers’ Counsel and agree not to seek to have Sellers’ Counsel disqualified from representing the Sellers’ Representative or any of its Affiliates in connection with such dispute. Each of Purchaser and the Company further agrees that, as to all pre-Closing communications among Sellers’ Counsel, any member of the Company Group, any Company Unitholder and any of their respective Affiliates, directors, managers, officers or employees to the extent related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the attorney-client privilege, the expectation of client confidence and all other rights to any evidentiary privilege belong to Sellers’ Representative and its Affiliates, as applicable, and may be controlled by Sellers’ Representative and its Affiliates and shall not pass to or be claimed by Purchaser, the Company Group, any Company Unitholder or any of their respective Affiliates, directors, managers, officers or employees. Purchaser further agrees, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, that all communications that occurred prior to the Closing in any form or format whatsoever between or among any of Sellers’ Counsel, the Company Group, the Company Unitholders, the Sellers’ Representative (and its Affiliates) and each of their respective directors, officers, employees and other Representatives that relate to the negotiation, documentation and consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any dispute arising under this Agreement (collectively, the “Deal Communications”) shall be deemed to be retained and owned collectively by the Sellers’ Representative, shall be controlled by the Sellers’ Representative and

shall not pass to or be claimed by Purchaser or the Company or their respective Affiliates. All Deal Communications that are attorney-client privileged (the “Privileged Deal Communications”) shall remain privileged after the Closing. To the extent that files in respect of any Privileged Deal Communications constitute property of the client, the privilege and the expectation of client confidence relating thereto shall belong solely to the Sellers’ Representative and its Affiliates, shall be controlled by the Sellers’ Representatives and its Affiliates and shall not pass to or be claimed by Purchaser or the Company or their respective Affiliates.

(g)    Each Company Unitholder (including in each case for purposes of this Section 8.6(g), the Sellers’ Representative) agrees that Purchaser, and following the Closing, the Surviving Company and each other member of the Company Group, shall be entitled to rely on any action authorized by this Section 8.6 or any Letter of Transmittal to be taken by the Sellers’ Representative, on behalf of each Company Unitholder (each, an “Authorized Action”), and that each Authorized Action shall be binding on each Company Unitholder as fully as if such Company Unitholder had taken such Authorized Action. Each Company Unitholder agrees to pay, and to indemnify and hold harmless, each of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties from and against any Losses which they may suffer, sustain or become subject to, as a result of any claim by any Person that an Authorized Action is not binding on, or enforceable against, such Company Unitholder. In addition, each Company Unitholder hereby releases and discharges each of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties and, following the Closing, the Surviving Company and each other member of the Company Group, from and against any Losses arising out of or in connection with the Sellers’ Representative’s failure (other than to the extent arising out of any action taken by or at the written direction of any Purchaser Indemnified Party that is inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement) to distribute any amounts received by the Sellers’ Representative on behalf of the Company Unitholders to the Company Unitholders. Payment of all amounts paid by or on behalf of Purchaser (whether directly or through any escrowed funds of any kind) to the Sellers’ Representative shall constitute payment by Purchaser to each of the Company Unitholders and satisfaction of Purchaser’s obligation to pay such amount hereunder (notwithstanding any withholding (including in the Sellers’ Representative Expense Fund) by the Sellers’ Representative).

8.7    Directors and Officers Insurance.

(a)    From and after the Closing until the sixth (6^th) anniversary of the Closing Date, to the extent of coverage actually provided under the D&O Tail Policy, Purchaser shall provide or cause to be provided to any Person who is on the date hereof, or who becomes prior to the Closing Date, an officer, director or manager of any member of the Company Group (each such Person, a “D&O Beneficiary”), officers’ and directors’ liability insurance coverage (“D&O Insurance”) with respect to all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including attorney’s fees and expenses), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement in connection with any actual or threatened action, suit, claim, proceeding or investigation (each, a “D&O Claim”) to the extent that any such D&O Claim is based on, or arises out of, the fact that such D&O Beneficiary is or was a manager, director or officer of any member of the Company Group at any time prior to the Closing Date or is or was serving at the request of any member of the Company Group as a manager, director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise at any time prior to the Closing Date, in each case to the extent

that any such D&O Claim pertains to any matter or fact arising, existing, or occurring prior to or at the Closing, regardless of whether such D&O Claim is asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Closing Date.

(b)    At or prior to the Closing, Purchaser shall coordinate the purchase of a “tail” policy for the existing D&O Insurance of the Company Group that shall provide for (x) an overall coverage amount not less than the overall coverage amount under the existing D&O Insurance of the Company Group as in effect on the date hereof and (y) coverage for liability under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act in amounts not less than the coverage amounts for such liabilities under the existing D&O Insurance of the Company Group as in effect on the date hereof (the “D&O Tail Policy”). Until the sixth (6^th) anniversary of the Closing Date, Purchaser shall cause the Surviving Company (i) not to terminate the D&O Tail Policy, (ii) not to amend or otherwise modify the D&O Tail Policy or take any action that would result in the cancellation, termination, amendment or modification of the D&O Tail Policy and (iii) to continue to honor its obligations under the D&O Tail Policy.

(c)    For a period of six (6) years after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall not, and shall not permit any member of the Company Group (including the Surviving Company) to, amend, repeal or modify (in a manner adverse to the beneficiary thereof) any provision in such Person’s Organizational Documents relating to the exculpation or indemnification of, or advancement of expenses to, any officers, directors or managers, it being the intent of the parties hereto that the officers, directors and managers of the Company Group on the date hereof shall continue to be entitled to such exculpation, indemnification and advancement to the full extent of Applicable Law, but subject to any qualifications or limitations provided for under the Organizational Documents of the applicable member of the Company Group as in effect on the date hereof. The provisions of this Section 8.7 are intended to be for the benefit of, and enforceable by, each D&O Beneficiary and such Person’s estate, heirs and representatives, and are in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to indemnification or contribution that any such Person may have pursuant to Applicable Law, the Organizational Documents of any member of the Company Group in effect as of the date hereof or any contract in effect as of the date hereof.

8.8    Tax Matters.

(a)    Purchaser shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed all Tax Returns for the Company Group which are filed after the Closing Date for any taxable period ending on or prior to the Closing Date and for any Straddle Period. No later than forty-five (45) days prior to filing any such Tax Return, Purchaser shall submit such Tax Return to the Sellers’ Representative for its review, comment, and consent. Purchaser shall make any revisions as are reasonably requested by Sellers’ Representative. The parties hereto agree that any Tax Return of the applicable member of the Company Group that includes the Closing Date shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, reflect, without limitation, any Transaction Tax Deductions.

(b)    Purchaser and its Affiliates (including on or after the Closing Date, the Company Group) shall not file, or cause to be filed, any restatement or amendment of, modification to, or claim for refund relating to, any Tax Return of any member of the Company Group for any taxable period that begins prior to the Closing Date (regardless of whether such taxable period ends

prior to the Closing Date) without the prior written consent of the Sellers’ Representative (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(c)    Cooperation; Procedures Relating to Tax Claims. Subject to the other provisions of this Section 8.8, Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party, in connection with (i) the filing of Tax Returns, (ii) any Action with respect to Taxes and Tax Returns and (iii) the preparation of any financial statements to the extent related to Taxes. Such cooperation shall include the retention, and (upon the other party’s request) the provision, of records and information which are reasonably relevant to any such Action and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder; provided, that the party requesting assistance shall pay the reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred by the party providing such assistance; provided, further, no party shall be required to provide assistance at times or in amounts that would interfere unreasonably with the business and operations of such party.

(d)    No party hereto nor any Affiliate thereof shall make an election under Section 336 or Section 338 of the Code or any similar provision of Law in respect of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(e)    Purchaser shall not take any action or cause any action to be taken with respect to the Company Group or the Surviving Company subsequent to the Closing that would cause the transactions contemplated hereby to constitute part of a transaction that is the same as, or substantially similar to, the “Intermediary Transaction Tax Shelter” described in Internal Revenue Service Notice 2001-16, 2001-1 C.B. 730, and Internal Revenue Service Notice 2008-20 I.R.B. 2008-6 (January 17, 2008), and Internal Revenue Service Notice 2008-111 I.R.B. 1299 (December 1, 2008).

(f)    Tax Contests.

(i)    Purchaser shall deliver a written notice to the Sellers’ Representative in writing promptly following the commencement of any Action with respect to Taxes of any of the Company or its Subsidiaries for which the Company Unitholders may be liable (“Tax Contest”) and shall describe in reasonable detail (to the extent known by Purchaser) the facts constituting the basis for such Tax Contest, the nature of the relief sought, and the amount of the claimed losses (including Taxes), if any (the “Tax Claim Notice”); provided, however, that the failure or delay to so notify the Sellers’ Representative shall not relieve the Company Unitholders of any obligation or liability that the Company Unitholders may have to Purchaser, except to the extent that the Company Unitholders demonstrate that the Company Unitholders are adversely prejudiced thereby.

(ii)    With respect to Tax Contests for Taxes of the Company and its Subsidiaries for a Pre-Closing Tax Period (other than a Straddle Period), the Sellers’ Representative may elect to assume and control the defense of such Tax Contest by written notice to Purchaser within thirty (30) days after delivery by Purchaser to the Sellers’ Representative of the Tax Claim Notice. If the Sellers’ Representative elects to assume and control the defense of

such Tax Contest, the Sellers’ Representative (A) shall bear its own costs and expenses, (B) shall be entitled to engage its own counsel and (C) may (1) pursue or forego any and all administrative appeals, litigation, proceedings, hearings and conferences with any taxing authority, (2) either pay the Tax claimed or sue for refund where Applicable Law permits such refund suit or (3) contest, settle or compromise the Tax Contest in any permissible manner; provided, however, that the Sellers’ Representative shall not settle or compromise (or take other actions described herein with respect to) any Tax Contest without the prior written consent of Purchaser (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) if such settlement or compromise would reasonably be expected to adversely affect the Tax liability of Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including any of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) for any taxable period ending after the Closing Date. If the Sellers’ Representative elects to assume the defense of any Tax Contest, the Sellers’ Representative shall (x) keep Purchaser reasonably informed of all material developments and events relating to such Tax Contest (including promptly forwarding copies to Purchaser of any related correspondence, and shall provide Purchaser with an opportunity to review and comment on any material correspondence before the Sellers’ Representative sends such correspondence to any taxing authority), (y) consult with Purchaser in connection with the defense or prosecution of any such Tax Contest and (z) provide such cooperation and information as Purchaser shall reasonably request, and Purchaser shall have the right to participate in (but not control) the defense of such Tax Contest (including participating in any discussions with the applicable tax authorities regarding such Tax Contests).

(iii)    In connection with any Tax Contest that relates to Taxes of the Company and its Subsidiaries for a Pre-Closing Tax Period (other than a Straddle Period) that (A) the Sellers’ Representative does not timely elect to control pursuant to Section 8.8(f)(ii) or (B) the Sellers’ Representative fails to diligently defend, such Tax Contest shall be controlled by Purchaser (and the Sellers’ Representative shall reimburse Purchaser for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Purchaser relating to a Tax Contest described in this Section 8.8(f)(iii)) and the Sellers’ Representative agrees to cooperate with Purchaser in pursuing such Tax Contest.

(iv)    In connection with any Tax Contest for Taxes of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for any Straddle Period, such Tax Contest shall be controlled by Purchaser; provided, that with respect to any Tax Contest described in Section (iii) or in this Section (iv), Purchaser shall not (1) forego any administrative appeals, litigation, proceedings, hearings and conferences with any taxing authority, (2) pay the Tax claimed or (3) settle or compromise (or take such other actions described herein with respect to) any such Tax Contest without the prior written consent of the Sellers’ Representative, such consent not to be unreasonable withheld, conditioned or delayed. Purchaser shall (A) keep the Sellers’ Representative informed of all material developments and events relating to such Tax Contest (including promptly forwarding copies to the Sellers’ Representative of any related correspondence and shall provide the Sellers’ Representative with an opportunity to review and comment on any material correspondence before Purchaser sends such correspondence to any taxing authority), (B) consult with the Sellers’ Representative in connection with the defense or prosecution of any such Tax Contest and (C) provide such cooperation and

information as the Sellers’ Representative shall reasonably request and the Sellers’ Representative shall have the right, at its own cost and expense, to participate in (but not control) the defense of such Tax Contest (including participating in any discussions with the applicable tax authorities regarding such Tax Contests).

(v)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the procedures for all Tax Contests shall be governed exclusively by this Section 8.8(f) (and not Section 9.7(a)).

(g)    Any refunds of Taxes (including, without limitation, estimated Taxes) with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period that are received by Purchaser or the Company Group after the Closing Date (any such refund, a “Pre-Closing Tax Refund”), shall be for the account of the Company Unitholders, and the Company shall pay over to the Sellers’ Representative (for the benefit of the Company Unitholders) any such Pre-Closing Tax Refund within ten (10) days after receipt thereof, provided however that any refunds (i) attributable to a carryback from any taxable year beginning after the Closing Date or (ii) taken into account as an asset in the calculation of the Final Working Capital shall be for the account of Purchaser. Purchaser and the Company Group shall cooperate with the Sellers’ Representative (on behalf of the Company Unitholders) in obtaining such refunds, it being understood that (A) Purchaser and the Company Group will carryback any net operating losses for taxable periods ending on or before or including the Closing Date to prior taxable periods as allowable by applicable Tax Law and shall claim Tax refunds as a result of such carryback (including through the filing of amended Tax Returns), (B) any such Pre-Closing Tax Refunds will be claimed in cash rather than as a credit against future Tax liabilities, (C) Purchaser and the Company Group shall cooperate with the Representative in preparing and filing Tax Returns (including amendments of prior Tax Returns and claims for refunds, including claims for refunds on IRS Forms 1139 and/or 4466) for any taxable period ending on or prior to the Closing Date and for any Straddle Period as promptly as reasonably possible, and (D) to the extent Pre-Closing Tax Refunds are reduced because of the inability to close the tax year of any member of the Company Group on the Closing Date, then Purchaser shall pay over to the Sellers’ Representative (on behalf of the Company Unitholders) the amount of such reduction within ten (10) days of the filing of the Tax Return for the applicable Straddle Period.

(h)    To the extent that Purchaser or any of its Affiliates recognizes a Transaction Tax Benefit (as defined below) in either of the first two (2) taxable years ending after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall pay the amount of such Transaction Tax Benefits to the Sellers’ Representative (on behalf of the Company Unitholders) as such Transaction Tax Benefits are actually recognized by Purchaser (or its Affiliate) within ten (10) days of filing any Tax Return for each such taxable year. For this purpose, a “Transaction Tax Benefit” means any reduction in Purchaser’s or any member of the Company Group’s liability for Taxes resulting from (i) the carryforward of any net operating loss arising in a Pre-Closing Tax Period or (ii) any Transaction Tax Deductions to the extent not included as deductions in the Tax Returns of the Company Group for the taxable period that ends on the Closing Date. Purchaser or its Affiliates (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Company Group) shall be deemed to recognize a Transaction Tax Benefit with respect to a taxable year if, and to the extent that, such party’s cumulative liability for Taxes through the end of such taxable year, calculated by excluding the relevant net operating loss carryforwards and/or

Transaction Tax Deductions from all taxable years, exceeds such party’s actual cumulative liability for Taxes through the end of such taxable year, calculated by taking into account such net operating loss carryforwards and/or Transaction Tax Deductions for all taxable years (to the extent permitted by relevant Tax Law and treating such net operating loss carryforwards and Transaction Tax Deductions as the last items claimed for any taxable year). Within fifteen (15) days of the filing of any income Tax Return of the Company Group with respect to any taxable period (or portion thereof) that begins after the Closing Date and takes into account any such net operating loss carryforwards or Transaction Tax Deduction, Purchaser shall deliver to the Sellers’ Representative a schedule setting forth in reasonable detail the amount and calculation of any Transaction Tax Benefit realized during such taxable year.

(i)    Any payments (including indemnification payments under this Section 8.8 and Article 9) under this Agreement (other than payments of the Aggregate Initial Consideration) shall be treated by all parties hereto as adjustments to the Aggregate Initial Consideration.

8.9    Employee Matters. Following the Closing, Purchaser shall cause the applicable members of the Company Group to pay to the applicable Service Providers bonuses and other cash incentive amounts earned in respect of the Company’s fiscal year 2016 consistent with terms of the applicable Employee Plans (copies of which have been provided to Purchaser) in effect as of the date hereof, in each case, to the extent such amounts have been accrued on the Latest Balance Sheet or included in the determination of Final Working Capital. Such amounts shall be paid in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice and the terms of the applicable Employee Plans, including in respect of timing and amount.

8.10    Certain Indemnity Proceeds. In the event that any member of the Company Group receives any payment in satisfaction of the indemnification claims listed on the “Indemnity Claims Schedule” from the indemnitor therefor (and not, for the avoidance of doubt, from any other third party, including any insurer), whether directly from such indemnitor or by recourse to any funds held in escrow to satisfy such payment obligations, Purchaser shall, or shall cause a member of the Company Group to, promptly and in any event within ten (10) Business Days of the receipt thereof, pay such amount to the Sellers’ Representative (or, at the Sellers’ Representative’s direction, pay to the Paying Agent), less the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Purchaser, any member of the Company Group, or any of their respective Affiliates in procuring such collection and recovery, for further distribution to the Company Unitholders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages. Following the Closing, Purchaser shall, and shall cause the applicable members of the Company Group to use commercially reasonable efforts to collect all amounts in respect thereof, not waive in any material respect the right to recover and collect any such amount, and upon, written request from the Sellers’ Representative, timely provide periodic updates with respect to such efforts. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 8.10 shall require Purchaser, any member of the Company Group or any of their respective Affiliates to institute or file any lawsuit or other legal proceeding against any such indemnitor unless the Company Unitholders irrevocably agree in writing to be responsible for all fees, costs, and expenses incurred by Purchaser, any member of the Company Group or any of their respective Affiliates in connection with such lawsuit or other legal proceeding.

9.1    Written Notice of Claims for Indemnification. Written notice of a claim for indemnification by an Indemnified Party under Section 9.2(a), 9.3(a), 9.2(b) (with respect to any covenant, agreement or obligation required to be performed prior to the Closing) or 9.3(b) (with respect to any covenant, agreement or obligation required to be performed prior to the Closing) (whether or not Losses have actually been incurred) made by an Indemnified Party against any Indemnifying Party must be given by such Indemnified Party on or before 11:59 pm New York, NY time on the date that is fifteen (15) months after the Closing Date (the “Claim Deadline”). Written notice of a claim for indemnification by an Indemnified Party under Section  9.2(b) (with respect to any covenant, agreement or obligation required to be performed following the Closing) or Section 9.3(b) (with respect to any covenant, agreement or obligation required to be performed following the Closing) (whether or not Losses have actually been incurred) made by an Indemnified Party against any Indemnifying Party must be given by such Indemnified Party on or before the applicable Covenant Survival Termination Date. If an Indemnified Party has made a claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 9.2 or Section 9.3, as applicable, on or prior to the Claim Deadline or Covenant Survival Termination Date, as applicable, then such indemnification claim, if then unresolved, shall not be extinguished by the passage of the applicable Claim Deadline or Covenant Survival Termination Date, and such indemnification claim shall survive until it is finally and fully resolved and any obligations in connection therewith are fully satisfied.

9.2    Indemnification of Purchaser Indemnified Parties. From and after the Closing (but subject to the applicable provisions of this Article 9), each Company Unitholder (pro rata based on such Company Unitholder’s Applicable Percentage) shall, to the extent of the then-remaining amount in the Indemnity Escrow Fund, severally defend and indemnify the Purchaser, Merger Sub and their respective Affiliates (including, after the Closing, the Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries) and their respective officers, directors, shareholders, equityholders, partners, members, managers, employees, advisors, agents and other Representatives (collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnified Parties” against, and hold them harmless from, any and all Losses suffered or incurred by any of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties arising from or relating to:

(a)    any breach of or inaccuracy in any of the representations and warranties contained in Article 5;

(b)    any breach or non-fulfillment of any covenant, agreement or obligation to be performed by the Company, any other member of the Company Group or any Company Unitholder pursuant to this Agreement;

(c)    any Sellers’ Transaction Expenses or Indebtedness of any member of the Company Group that, in either case, remains unpaid after the Closing and is not taken into account in the calculation of Aggregate Initial Consideration or in the payment made to Purchaser pursuant to Section 2.10(d)(i)(B); and

(d)    any matter set forth on the “Indemnification Schedule” attached hereto.

9.3    Indemnification of the Company Unitholder Indemnified Parties. From and after the Closing (but subject to the applicable provisions of this Article 9), Purchaser shall defend and indemnify the Company Unitholders and their respective Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, shareholders, equityholders, partners, members, managers, employees, advisors, agents and other Representatives (collectively, the “Company Unitholder Indemnified Parties”) against, and hold them harmless from, any and all Losses suffered or incurred by any of the Company Unitholder Indemnified Parties arising from or relating to:

(a)    any breach of or inaccuracy in any of the representations and warranties contained in Article 6 or in any certificate or instrument delivered by or on behalf of Purchaser or Merger Sub pursuant to this Agreement; and

(b)    any breach or non-fulfillment of any covenant, agreement or obligation to be performed by Purchaser or Merger Sub pursuant to this Agreement.

9.4    Indemnifiable Losses. All Losses for which the Purchaser Indemnified Parties are entitled to seek indemnification pursuant to Section 9.2 are referred to herein as “Purchaser Indemnifiable Losses.” All Losses for which the Company Unitholder Indemnified Parties are entitled to seek indemnification pursuant to Section 9.3 are referred to herein as “Company Unitholder Indemnifiable Losses.” Purchaser Indemnifiable Losses and Company Unitholder Indemnifiable Losses are collectively referred to herein as “Indemnifiable Losses.”

9.5    Certain Limitations. The indemnification obligations of the parties hereto provided for in Section 9.2 or Section 9.3 are subject to the following limitations:

(a)    No Company Unitholder shall be liable to any Purchaser Indemnified Party for indemnification under Section 9.2(a) until the aggregate amount of all Purchaser Indemnifiable Losses in respect of indemnification under Section 9.2(a) exceeds Four Million One Hundred Twenty-Five Thousand ($4,125,000) (the “Basket”), in which event the Company Unitholders (pro rata based on their respective Applicable Percentages) shall be required to pay and shall be liable for all such Purchaser Indemnifiable Losses in excess of the Basket; provided, however, that the limitations in this Section 9.5(a) shall not apply to any claims of actual and intentional fraud.

(b)    The aggregate liability of the Company Unitholders to indemnify the Purchaser Indemnified Parties from and against any Purchaser Indemnifiable Losses arising under Section 9.2 shall not, in any event, exceed Four Million One Hundred Twenty-Five Thousand ($4,125,000) (the “Cap”); provided, however, that the Cap shall not apply to any claims of actual and intentional fraud; provided, further, that in no event shall any Company Unitholder have any liability for any Purchaser Indemnifiable Losses in excess of the aggregate amount of proceeds actually received by such Company Unitholder from the Final Merger Consideration hereunder.

(c)    Any indemnification under Section 9.2 for Losses in respect of breaches of the representations in Section 5.18 (other than in Sections 5.18(g), (h), (j), and (k)) shall be limited to such Losses incurred with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period.

(d)    Neither a party’s good faith judgment as to whether a matter meets a “materiality” or “Material Adverse Effect” threshold under a representation or warranty qualified by materiality or Material Adverse Effect, respectively, nor a party’s good faith estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of financial statements shall be considered fraud for the purposes of this Agreement (provided, however, that the foregoing shall not be construed, in and of itself, to impute fraud to any Person merely by reason of the fact that it is alleged that such Person did not act in good faith).

9.6    [Reserved].

9.7    Procedures Relating to Indemnification. As used herein, an “Indemnified Party” shall refer to a Purchaser Indemnified Party or a Company Unitholder Indemnified Party, as applicable; provided, that, with respect to any actions to be taken by an Indemnified Party under this Section 9.7, “Indemnified Party” shall mean Purchaser or the Sellers’ Representative, on behalf of the Company Unitholders, as applicable, and the “Indemnifying Party” shall refer to the party obligated to indemnify such Indemnified Party. Except to the extent doing so would be prohibited by the terms of the R&W Policy relating to any claim made by a Purchaser Indemnified Party, all claims for indemnification by an Indemnified Party under Section 9.2 or Section 9.3, as applicable (which the parties acknowledge and agree shall not apply to claims made under the R&W Policy or after the Claim Deadline), shall be asserted and resolved as follows:

(a)    Third Party Claims.

(i)    In the event that any Indemnified Party is made a party to or otherwise becomes subject to any Action instituted by any third party for which the liability or the costs or expenses of which are Losses for which indemnification may be sought by an Indemnified Party under this Article 9 (other than any Tax Contest, the procedures for which shall be governed exclusively by Section 8.8(f)) (any such third party Action being referred to herein as a “Third Party Claim”), the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party prompt written notice thereof. The failure to give such written notice shall not affect the Indemnified Party’s rights under this Article 9 except to the extent such failure has materially and adversely affected the Indemnifying Party’s ability to defend such Third Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to contest and defend such Third Party Claim at its sole cost and expense so long as (A) the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party, within ten (10) Business Days after the Indemnified Party has given notice of the Third Party Claim to the Indemnifying Party (or by such earlier date as may be necessary under applicable procedural rules in order to file a timely appearance and response) that the Indemnifying Party is assuming the defense of such Third Party Claim and that the Indemnifying Party will indemnify the Indemnified Party from and against all Losses the Indemnified Party may suffer or incur resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by, such Third Party Claim, (B) the Indemnifying Party provides the Indemnified Party with evidence reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying Party has and is reasonably likely at all times to continue to have the financial resources to defend against the Third Party Claim and fulfill its indemnification obligations hereunder with respect thereto, (C) the Indemnifying Party conducts the defense of the Third

Party Claim actively and diligently, (D) the Third Party Claim (1) does not seek injunctive relief, specific performance or other equitable relief as the primary remedy, (2) has not been brought by any Governmental Authority, and does not allege any criminal allegations, (3) is not one in which the Indemnifying Party is also a party and, in the opinion of counsel to the Indemnified Party, there may be legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party which are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party, or (4) does not involve a claim which, upon petition by the Indemnified Party, the appropriate Governmental Authority rules that the Indemnifying Party failed or is failing to vigorously prosecute or defend, and (E) settlement of, or an adverse judgment with respect to, the Third Party Claim is not reasonably likely to be adverse in any material respect to the Indemnified Party’s relationships with its current customers, suppliers, or other Persons having a material business relationship with the Indemnified Party.

(ii)    The Indemnified Party shall be entitled at any time, at its own cost and expense (which cost and expense shall not constitute a Loss unless such cost and expense is incurred at the request of the Indemnifying Party), to participate in such contest and defense and to be represented by attorneys of its own choosing; provided, however, that if the claim for indemnification is resolved in favor of the Indemnified Party (in whole or in part), the Indemnifying Party will pay the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of counsel retained by the Indemnified Party that are incurred prior to the Indemnifying Party’s assumption of control of the defense of the Third Party Claim pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence. If the Indemnified Party elects to participate in such defense, the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in the conduct of such defense of such Third Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party may not consent to entry of judgment in, or settle or compromise, any Third Party Claim, the defense of which the Indemnifying Party is conducting pursuant to this Section 9.7(a), without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, unless such judgment, compromise or settlement (A) includes a full unconditional release of the Indemnified Party(ies) from all liabilities and obligations relating to such Third Party Claim, (B) does not contain any finding or admission of wrongdoing or any violation of any Law or the rights of any Person by the Indemnified Party and has no effect on any other Actions that may be asserted against the Indemnified Party and (C) provides for the payment of money, solely by the Indemnifying Party from the Indemnity Escrow Fund, as the sole relief for the claimant in such Third Party Claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Indemnifying Party fails to provide the notice contemplated by clause (A) of Section 9.7(a)(i) within the timeframe specified therein, the Indemnified Party may defend, and may consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any compromise or settlement with respect to, the Third Party Claim, at the sole cost of the Indemnifying Party; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party will not be bound by the entry of any such judgment consented to, or any such compromise or settlement effected, without its prior written consent (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the insurer(s) under the R&W Policy and its/their agents and advisors shall be permitted to consult and associate with any party in the defense of any Third Party Claim that may reasonably constitute a “Loss” or similar concept under the R&W Policy and nothing in this Section 9.7(a) shall

modify or be deemed to modify the relevant claim and claim handling process between Purchaser and its insurer(s) under the terms of the R&W Policy.

(b)    Direct Claims. In the event any Indemnified Party should have a claim against any Indemnifying Party that does not involve a Third Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”), the Indemnified Party shall promptly deliver written notice of such Direct Claim to the Indemnifying Party, which notice shall specify in reasonable detail the amount or an estimate of the amount of the liability arising therefrom and the basis therefor, in each case to the extent then known. The failure to give such written notice shall not affect the Indemnified Party’s rights hereunder except to the extent such failure has materially and adversely affected the Indemnifying Party’s ability to defend such Direct Claim. If the Indemnifying Party (i) notifies the Indemnified Party within sixty (60) days after receipt of notice of a Direct Claim that it agrees with the Direct Claim described in such notice or (ii) fails to notify the Indemnified Party within sixty (60) days after receipt of notice of a Direct Claim that it disputes the Direct Claim described in such notice, then, in either case, the Loss(es) in the amount specified in the Indemnified Party’s notice shall be deemed a liability of the Indemnifying Party in accordance with the terms herein, and payment thereof shall be made to the Indemnified Party promptly (and in any event within five (5) Business Days thereafter). If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party within sixty (60) days after receipt of notice of a Direct Claim that it disputes the Direct Claim described in such notice, then the Indemnified Party may pursue its remedies hereunder with respect thereto.

9.8    Determination of Losses.

(a)    The amount of any Indemnifiable Loss payable under this Article 9 by an Indemnifying Party shall be net of any amounts actually recovered by the Indemnified Party from insurance policies (other than proceeds from the R&W Policy) or from any other Person alleged to be responsible for such Indemnifiable Loss (the “Alternative Arrangements”), in each case net of the following (collectively, the “Collection Expenses”): (i) reasonable and documented costs and expenses incurred by such Indemnified Party or its Affiliates in procuring such recovery, (ii) any retro-premium obligations, increases in premiums or premium adjustments to the extent attributable to such recovery, and (iii) deductibles and other amounts incurred in connection with such recovery. If, subsequent to an indemnification payment made by an Indemnifying Party for an Indemnifiable Loss, the Indemnified Party actually receives any amounts under any Alternative Arrangements with respect to such Indemnifiable Loss, then such Indemnified Party shall promptly (but in any event within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of such amounts under such Alternative Arrangements) reimburse the Indemnifying Party for the indemnification payment actually made to such Indemnified Party by such Indemnifying Party for such Indemnifiable Loss up to the amount actually received by the Indemnified Party under such Alternative Arrangements, in each case, net of all associated Collection Expenses.

(b)    Indemnification payments under this Article 9 shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party without reduction for any Tax Benefits available to the Indemnified Party. However, to the extent that the Indemnified Party recognizes Tax Benefits as a result of any Indemnifiable Losses in any tax year in which or prior to which such Indemnifiable Losses were incurred (or in the immediately succeeding two (2) taxable years), the Indemnified Party shall pay

the amount of such Tax Benefits (but not in excess of the indemnification payment or payments actually received from the Indemnifying Party with respect to such Indemnifiable Losses) to the Indemnifying Party as such Tax Benefits are actually recognized by the Indemnified Party. For this purpose, an Indemnified Party shall be deemed to recognize a tax benefit (a “Tax Benefit”) with respect to a taxable year if, and to the extent that, the Indemnified Party’s cumulative liability for Taxes through the end of such taxable year, calculated by excluding any Tax items attributable to the Indemnifiable Losses from all taxable years, exceeds the Indemnified Party’s actual cumulative liability for Taxes through the end of such taxable year, calculated by taking into account any Tax items attributable to the Indemnifiable Losses for all taxable years (to the extent permitted by relevant Tax Law and treating such Tax items as the last items claimed for any taxable year).

(c)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no Purchaser Indemnified Party will be entitled to indemnification under this Article 9 for any Loss to the extent that it has been taken into account in the final determination of Actual Working Capital, Actual Indebtedness or Actual Sellers’ Transaction Expenses pursuant to Section 2.10 hereof.

9.9    Mitigation. Each Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any Indemnifiable Losses for which such Indemnified Party seeks indemnification under this Article 9 to the extent required by Applicable Law.

9.10    No Circular Recovery. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no Company Unitholder shall have any right of contribution against Purchaser, the Surviving Company, any of their respective Affiliates or any other Purchaser Indemnified Party with respect to any Purchaser Indemnifiable Losses. Each Company Unitholder agrees that he, she or it shall not make any claim for indemnification against Purchaser, the Surviving Company or any other member of the Company Group (following the Closing), any of their respective Affiliates or any other Purchaser Indemnified Party by reason of the fact that such Company Unitholder or any of his, her or its agents or other Representatives was a controlling person, equityholder, director, officer, manager, employee, agent or other Representative of any member of the Company Group or was serving as such for another Person at the request of any member of the Company Group (whether such claim is for losses of any kind or otherwise and whether such claim is pursuant to any Law, Organizational Document, contractual obligation or otherwise) with respect to any Purchaser Indemnifiable Losses owed by such Company Unitholder pursuant to this Article 9.

9.11    Certain Determinations. For all purposes of this Article 9, each representation and warranty in this Agreement shall be read without regard and without giving effect to the term(s) “material” or “Material Adverse Effect” or similar qualifiers as if such words and surrounding related words (e.g., “reasonably be expected to,” “could have” and similar restrictions and qualifiers) were deleted from such representation and warranty.

9.12    Effect of Investigation. The representations, warranties and covenants of the parties hereto, and an Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification with respect thereto, shall not be affected or deemed waived by reason of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party (including by any of its Representatives) or by reason of the fact that such Indemnified Party or any of its Representatives knew or should have known that any such representation or warranty is, was or might be inaccurate or by reason of such Indemnified Party’s

waiver of any condition set forth in Section 3.2(a), Section 3.2(b) or Section 3.2(b), as the case may be.

9.13    Exclusive Remedy; Source of Indemnification; R&W Policy.

(a)    Following the Closing, the respective rights of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties and the Company Unitholder Indemnified Parties to indemnification pursuant to this Article 9 shall be the sole and exclusive remedies available to such parties with respect to any and all claims with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (other than disputes under Section 2.10, which disputes under Section 2.10 shall be resolved in accordance with the dispute resolution mechanism set forth in Section 2.10). Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) nothing herein shall limit or impair any party’s right to obtain specific performance or other injunctive relief with respect to any breach or threatened breach of this Agreement or limit any Action hereunder in respect of actual and intentional fraud in the making of any of the representations and warranties in Article 5, and (ii) the limitations on remedies contained in this Section 9.13(a) shall not apply to any of the other agreements, documents and instruments entered into by the parties hereto in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(b)    Subject to the other applicable provisions regarding indemnification contained herein, if the Company Unitholders are obligated to reimburse or compensate the Purchaser Indemnified Parties for any Purchaser Indemnifiable Losses in connection with a claim for indemnification by any of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties under Section 9.2, then indemnification for such Purchaser Indemnifiable Losses shall, subject to the applicable limitations, if any, set forth in Section 9.5, be satisfied solely from the then remaining balance of the Indemnity Escrow Fund.

10.1    Survival of Representations, Warranties and Covenants. The representations and warranties of the parties contained in this Agreement shall survive the Effective Time and the Closing to the extent expressly provided herein; provided, however, that any recourse by an Indemnified Party against an Indemnifying Party pursuant to the rights of indemnification set forth in Article 9 will be limited as set forth in Article 9. The covenants, agreements and obligations of the parties contained herein to be performed following the Closing shall survive the Effective Time and the Closing until performed in accordance with the terms thereof, unless the covenant, agreement or obligation specifies a term, in which case, such covenant, agreement or obligation shall survive for such specified term (the date on which such covenants, agreements or obligations terminate, the “Covenant Survival Termination Date”).

10.2    Amendment and Waiver. This Agreement may not be amended, altered or modified except by a written instrument executed by Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative (on behalf of the Company Unitholders, and prior to the Closing, the Company). No course of dealing between or among any Persons having any interest in this Agreement will be deemed effective to modify, amend or discharge any part of this Agreement or any rights or obligations of any Person

under or by reason of this Agreement. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute, a waiver of any other provisions, whether or not similar, nor shall any waiver constitute a continuing waiver. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Sections 10.8, 10.13 and 10.14 and this Section 10.2 (and any provision of this Agreement to the extent an amendment, modification, waiver or termination of such provision would modify the substance of Sections 10.8, 10.13 and 10.14 and this Section 10.2) may not be amended, modified, waived or terminated in a manner that impacts or is adverse in any respect to the Debt Financing Sources without the prior written consent of the Debt Financing Sources party to the Debt Commitment Letter on the date of this Agreement.

10.3    Notices. All notices, demands and other communications to be given or delivered to Purchaser, the Company, the Sellers’ Representative or any Company Unitholder under or by reason of the provisions of this Agreement will be in writing and will be deemed to have been given when personally delivered one (1) Business Day after being sent by reputable overnight courier or when transmitted by facsimile or telecopy (transmission confirmed) during normal business hours of the recipient, to the addresses indicated below (unless another address is so specified in writing):

If to any Company Unitholder, the Sellers’ Representative or prior to the Closing, to the Company, then to:

10.4    Assignment. This Agreement and all of the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Neither this Agreement nor any rights, benefits or obligations set forth herein may be assigned by any of the parties hereto without the prior written consent of Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative, and any attempted assignment without such prior written consent shall be void; provided, that Purchaser may transfer or assign (i) its rights and obligations under this Agreement, in whole or from time to time in part, to one or more of its Affiliates at any time, but no such transfer or assignment shall affect, or relieve Purchaser from performing, its obligations under this Agreement and (ii) as collateral security, its rights pursuant hereto to any Person providing financing to Purchaser or any of its Affiliates.

10.5    Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under Applicable Law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited by or invalid under Applicable Law, such provision will be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

10.6    No Strict Construction. The language used in this Agreement shall be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties hereto to express their mutual intent, and the parties intend that no rule of strict construction will be applied against any Person. The use of the word “including” in this Agreement or in any of the agreements contemplated hereby shall be by way of example rather than by limitation. Unless the context otherwise requires, any reference to a “Section,” “Exhibit,” or “Schedule” shall be deemed to refer to a section of this Agreement, exhibit to this Agreement or a schedule to this Agreement, as applicable. The words “hereof,” “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import referring to this Agreement refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement.

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

10.8    No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except with respect to each of the Debt Financing Sources, who shall be third party beneficiaries of Sections 10.2, 10.13 and 10.14 and this Section 10.8, with respect to the Purchaser Indemnified Parties, who shall be third party beneficiaries of Sections 8.6(g) and Article 9, and as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement (including as set forth in Section 8.7 above), (a) nothing herein expressed or implied is intended or shall be construed to confer upon or give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and their respective

permitted successors and assigns, any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement, such third parties specifically including employees or creditors of the Company Group, and (b) without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (a), each party hereto will not, and will not cause or permit any other Person to, (i) assert any claim of any nature whatsoever arising under or relating to this Agreement, the negotiation thereof or its subject matter, or the transactions contemplated hereby or consummated or contemplated to be consummated in connection herewith, against any Person other than the other parties hereto (and against such parties only pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement), including against any past, present or future direct or indirect equityholders, partners, members, managers, controlling Persons, directors, officers, employees, incorporators, managers, members, agents, other Representatives or Affiliates of any party hereto (or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing), or the heirs, executors, administrators, estates, successors or assigns of any of the foregoing (with respect to each party hereto, such party’s “Nonparty Affiliates”) or (ii) without limiting the generality of clause (i), hold or attempt to hold any of the Company’s or the Sellers’ Representative’s Nonparty Affiliates liable for any actual or alleged inaccuracies, misstatements or omissions with respect to any information or materials of any kind furnished by or on behalf of the Company, any other member of the Company Group, the Sellers’ Representatives, any of their respective Nonparty Affiliates, or their respective agents or other Representatives, concerning the Business, the Company Group, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or consummated or contemplated to be consummated in connection herewith; provided, that the foregoing shall not prohibit, restrict or otherwise limit any claim in respect of fraud.

10.9    Acknowledgment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, each of Purchaser and Merger Sub acknowledges and agrees, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, that: (a) it has conducted, to its satisfaction, an independent investigation of the condition (financial and otherwise), results of operations, assets, liabilities, properties and projected operations of the Business and the Company Group and, in making its determination to enter into this Agreement and consummate the transaction contemplated hereby, it is relying only on the representations and warranties of the Company expressly and specifically set forth in Article 5, (b) that (i) neither the Company, any other member of the Company Group, the Sellers’ Representative nor any of their respective Nonparty Affiliates has made or shall be deemed to have made, and Purchaser and Merger Sub have not relied on and are not relying on, any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement, express or implied, with respect to the Business, the Company Group, the subject matter of this Agreement or the transaction contemplated hereby, or the accuracy or completeness of any information or materials regarding the Business, the Company Group, the subject matter of this Agreement or the transaction contemplated hereby, that have been furnished or made available to Purchaser or Merger Sub or their representatives or any other Person, other than the representations and warranties of the Company that are expressly set forth in Article 5; (ii) neither the Company, the Sellers’ Representative nor any of their respective Nonparty Affiliates shall have or be subject to any liability or obligation to Purchaser or Merger Sub or any other Person resulting from or in connection with the dissemination to Purchaser or Merger Sub or their representatives or any other Person or the use by Purchaser or Merger Sub or their representatives or any other Person of any such information or materials, including any information or materials made available to Purchaser, Merger Sub or their respective Affiliates or Representatives in any “data room,” management presentation or in any other form in connection with or expectation of the entry into this Agreement

or the transactions contemplated hereby, and (iii) all other representations and warranties of any kind or nature express or implied (including any relating to the future or historical condition (financial or otherwise), results of operations, assets or liabilities of the Business, the Company Group, the subject matter of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby) are expressly and specifically disclaimed by the Company and the Sellers’ Representative and have not been and are not being relied upon by Purchaser or Merger Sub or any of their Representatives or Affiliates in entering into this Agreement and consummating the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

10.10    Specific Performance. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that the rights of each party to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby are unique and recognize and affirm that in the event of a breach of this Agreement by any party, money damages could be inadequate and the non-breaching party would have no adequate remedy at Law. Accordingly, the parties agree that such non-breaching party shall have the right, in addition to any other rights and remedies existing in its favor at law or in equity, to enforce its rights and the other parties’ obligations hereunder not only by an action or actions for damages but also by seeking an action or actions for specific performance, injunctive and/or other equitable relief (without posting of bond or other security or alleging or proving insufficiency of damages).

10.11    Complete Agreement. This Agreement and the agreements and documents referred to herein contain the complete agreement among the parties hereto and supersede any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or among the parties, written or oral, which relate to the subject matter hereof in any way.

10.12    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, any one of which may be by facsimile, e-mail of a “.pdf” counterpart, or other electronic communication, and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

10.13    Governing Law and Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the domestic laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice 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 laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware. To the extent permitted by Law, each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits and consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware located in Wilmington, Delaware (or, if such courts shall not have jurisdiction, any United States federal court sitting in the State of Delaware), and, in each case, appellate courts therefrom, over any suit, action or other proceeding brought by any party arising out of or relating to this Agreement, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally (a) agrees that all claims with respect to any such suit, action or other proceeding shall be heard and determined in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or, to the extent permitted by law, in such federal such court and (b) waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any objection that it may hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or other proceeding in any such court or that any suit, action or other proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. In the event of any litigation regarding or arising from this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the non-prevailing party its reasonable expenses, attorneys’ fees and costs incurred therein or in enforcement or collection of any judgment or award rendered therein.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, each of the parties hereto: (i) agrees that it will not bring or support any Person in any action of any kind or description, whether in Law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against any of the Debt Financing Sources in any way relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including any dispute arising out of or relating in any way to the Debt Commitment Letter or the performance thereof or the financings contemplated thereby, in any forum other than the federal and New York state courts located in the Borough of Manhattan within the City of New York, and (ii) agrees that, except as specifically set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter, all claims or causes of action (whether at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise) against any of the Debt Financing Sources in any way relating to this Agreement, the Debt Commitment Letter or the performance thereof or the financings contemplated thereby, shall be exclusively governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to principles or rules or conflict of laws to the extent such principles or rules would require or permit the application of laws of another jurisdiction.

10.14    Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE IT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY OF THE AGREEMENTS DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (INCLUDING IN THE CASE OF ANY ACTION AGAINST ANY DEBT FINANCING SOURCE (OR ITS AFFILIATES) IN CONNECTION WITH THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED UNDER THE DEBT COMMITMENT LETTER).

10.15    Release. Conditioned and effective upon the Closing, (a) each Company Unitholder, in its capacity as a holder of Company Units, on such Company Unitholder’s own behalf and, as applicable and to the greatest extent permitted by Applicable Law, on behalf of each of such Company Unitholder’s heirs, successors, assigns, and management companies and general partner entities that are Affiliates of such Company Unitholder (collectively with such Company Unitholder, the “Releasors”), hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives, releases and forever discharges Purchaser, the Surviving Company and their respective heirs, successors, assigns, Affiliates and management companies and equityholders (collectively with Purchaser and the Surviving Company, the “Company Parties”) and each of their respective successors, assigns and past, present and future directors, managers, officers and employees, and each of their respective heirs, successors and assigns, in each case in their capacity as such (collectively with the Company Parties, the “Company Releasees”) from any and all liabilities of any kind or nature whatsoever, in each case whether absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, known or unknown, arising on or prior to the Closing Date from any claims relating to or arising out of such Company Unitholder’s ownership of the Company Units, the termination of such Company Unitholder’s status as a holder of Company Units and actions taken by the Company’s officers, directors, managers, members, employees, agents, attorneys, accountants and representatives in connection with the negotiation, authorization, approval and recommendation of the terms of the Merger, and (b) each Company Unitholder, for itself and the other Releasors, hereby irrevocably covenants to refrain from, directly or indirectly,

asserting any claim or demand, or commencing, distributing or causing to be commenced, any action of any kind against any Company Releasees based on any of the foregoing. For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, nothing in this Section 10.15 will waive, or preclude such Company Unitholder from exercising, any of such Company Unitholder’s rights, if any, (a) to receive and be paid its portion of the Final Merger Consideration in accordance with the Distribution Waterfall payable under, and on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in, this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement in respect of each Company Unit held by such Company Unitholder immediately prior to the Effective Time, (b) under this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement, the Letter of Transmittal or any other agreement entered into by such Company Unitholder (or with respect to which such Company Unitholder is an express third-party beneficiary) in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (c) if such Company Unitholder is an employee of any member of the Company, relating to such Company Unitholder’s employment, including such Company Unitholder’s right to any compensation earned, such Company Unitholder’s benefits as an employee and any rights set forth under any employment agreement, or (d) if such Company Unitholder’s is a director, officer or manager of any member of the Company Group, relating to such Company Unitholder’s right to exculpation, indemnification, advancement or reimbursement of expenses and for any compensation or other fees earned.
