-51-

If the sum of the claims reimbursed to or claimed for reimbursement by a Continuing Employee in respect of the 2014 calendar year exceeds the amount of the Seller’s flexible spending account plan balance for such Continuing Employee as of the Closing Date, Purchaser shall transfer to the Sellers on the Closing Date an amount equal to such excess. Purchaser or Continuing Employer, as applicable, shall honor and administer each Continuing Employee’s payroll deduction elections existing in connection with the Seller’s flexible spending account plan, as in effect as of the Closing Date. On or prior to the Closing Date, the Seller will provide Purchaser with true and accurate copies of payroll deferral elections, claims histories and such other Records as may be reasonably necessary for Purchaser or Continuing Employer, as applicable, to administer the Continuing Employees’ claims with respect to the remainder of calendar year 2014.

8.3.5.    The Seller shall take all reasonable actions to permit each Continuing Employee to effect a “direct rollover” (within the meaning of Section 401(a)(31) of the Code) of his or her account balances (including any notes associated with plan loans) under any Benefit Plan that is a defined contribution plan intended to qualify under

-52-
#25932618 v26



Section 401(a) of the Code, including a qualified cash or deferred arrangement under Section 401(k) of the Code (the “Seller 401(k) Plan”), in accordance with applicable Legal Requirements, to a defined contribution plan that includes a qualified cash or deferred arrangement within the meaning of Section 401(k) of the Code maintained by the Purchaser (the “Buyer 401(k) Plan”), including the establishment of a Buyer 401(k) Plan to receive any direct rollovers. The Purchaser shall cause the Buyer 401(k) Plan to accept a direct rollover of a Continuing Employee’s account balance (including any notes associated with plan loans) from the Seller 401(k) Plan if such rollover is elected in accordance with applicable Legal Requirements by such Continuing Employee.
8.3.6.    Nothing contained herein, express or implied: (i) shall be construed to establish, amend, or modify any benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement, (ii) shall alter or limit the ability of the Company and its Subsidiaries to amend, modify or terminate any particular benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement that they maintain or contribute to, or (iii) is intended to confer upon any individual (including employees, retirees, or dependents or beneficiaries of employees or retirees) any right as a third party beneficiary of this Agreement.
Section 8.4.    Confidentiality.
8.4.1.    For a period of six (6) years following the Closing Date, each of the Purchaser, the Seller, the Company and its Subsidiaries will, and will cause their Affiliates to, treat and hold as confidential the purchase price for the Shares herein and all of the Confidential Information of the other party, and refrain from using or disclosing any of the Confidential Information, except (i) to consummate the transaction, (ii) to satisfy any obligations pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, (iii) with respect to investigating, defending or prosecuting Claims (whether pursuant to a Proceeding or otherwise) brought in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby, the Assets or the Business pursuant to Article XI or otherwise, (iv) to any employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, in the course of performing his or her normal duties as an employee, or (v) for any disclosure to any lender of the Seller or any of its Affiliates; provided, however, each of the Equity Sponsors may disclose such information under customary confidentiality obligations to its investors and co-investors, to its Representatives and to comply with Legal Requirements and the requirements of self-regulatory agencies applicable to the operation of their respective businesses. In the event that a party is requested or required (by oral question or request for information or documents in any legal proceeding, interrogatory, subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar process) to disclose any such Confidential Information, to the extent permitted to do so by Legal Requirement, such party will notify the other party promptly of the request or requirement so that the other party may seek an appropriate protective order or waive compliance with the provisions of this Section 8.4.1 and at the request of the other party, will cooperate with respect to the other party’s attempts, if any, to limit the scope of disclosure or to obtain other assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such portion of the Confidential Information required to be disclosed as the other party designates; provided, further, that the requesting party shall pay all of the non-requesting party’s out-of-pocket costs incurred in connection

-53-
#25932618 v26



with such cooperation. If, in the absence of a protective order or the receipt of a waiver hereunder, a party is, on the advice of counsel, compelled to disclose any Confidential Information, that party may disclose the requested information.
8.4.2.    The parties acknowledge that their obligations under this Section 8.4 are of a special, unique and extraordinary character, that they are reasonably related to the legitimate business interests of the parties, and that a failure to perform any such obligation or a violation of such obligations under this Section 8.4 would cause irreparable harm to the other party, the amount of which may not be readily ascertainable and for which adequate compensation could not be fashioned. Accordingly, each party agrees that the other party will have the right, without the need to prove irreparable injury or to post bond, to seek an injunction against any breach or threatened breach of this Section 8.4 by either party, as well as the right to pursue any and all other rights and remedies available at law or in equity.
Section 8.5.    Indemnification; Insurance.
8.5.1.    For a period of six (6) years following the Closing, the Company and the Purchaser shall, and shall cause the Company’s Subsidiaries to, indemnify, defend and hold harmless, and also advance expenses as incurred, in each case, to the fullest extent permitted under Legal Requirements, to each Person who is now or has been prior to the date hereof or who becomes prior to the Closing an officer, director or manager (or their non-U.S. equivalent) of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (the “Indemnified Persons”) from and against all losses, claims, damages, costs, expenses (including counsel fees and expenses), settlement payments or liabilities arising out of or in connection with any claim, Proceeding or investigation based in whole or in part on or arising in whole or in part out of the fact that such Person is or was an officer, director or manager of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, whether or not such claim, Proceeding or investigation, as applicable, is asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Closing; provided, however, the Person to whom such expenses are advanced provides a customary unsecured undertaking to the Company to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined that such Person is not entitled to indemnification. The parties hereto intend, to the extent not prohibited by Legal Requirement, that the indemnification provided for in this Section 8.5 shall apply without limitation to acts or omissions, other than illegal acts or acts of fraud, or alleged acts or omissions, other than illegal acts or acts of fraud, by the Indemnified Persons in their capacities as officers, directors or managers, as the case may be.
8.5.2.    For a period of six (6) years following the Closing, the Purchaser shall not, and shall not permit the Company or its Subsidiaries to amend, repeal or otherwise modify any provision in any of their respective Organizational Documents, in each case relating to the exculpation or indemnification of any managers, officers and/or directors (unless required by applicable Legal Requirement), where such amendment results in coverage less favorable to the coverage offered to the managers, directors and officers on the date of this Agreement, it being the intent of the parties that the managers,

-54-

officers and directors of the Company and its Subsidiaries shall continue to be entitled to such exculpation and indemnification to the fullest extent of Legal Requirements.
8.5.3.    The Purchaser and the Company hereby acknowledge that the Indemnified Persons may have certain rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and/or insurance provided by the Equity Sponsors (the “Sponsor Indemnitors”). The Purchaser and the Company each hereby agrees, on behalf of itself and, in the case of the Company, its Subsidiaries, (i) that it is an indemnitor of first resort (i.e., its obligations to each of the Indemnified Persons are primary and any obligation of the Sponsor Indemnitors to advance expenses or to provide indemnification for the same expenses or liabilities incurred by or on behalf of any of the Indemnified Persons are secondary), (ii) that it shall be required to advance the full amount of expenses incurred by or on behalf of each of the Indemnified Persons and shall be liable for the full amount of all Losses to the extent legally permitted and as required by the terms of this Agreement (or, to the extent applicable, its Organizational Documents), without regard to any rights such Indemnified Persons may have against the Sponsor Indemnitors, and (iii) that it irrevocably waives, relinquishes and releases the Sponsor Indemnitors from any and all claims for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect thereof. The Purchaser and the Company each further agrees that no advancement or payment by the Sponsor Indemnitors on behalf of an Indemnified Person with respect to any claim for which an Indemnified Person has sought indemnification from the Purchaser, the Company or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries shall affect the foregoing. and the Sponsor Indemnitors shall have a right of contribution and/or be subrogated to the extent of such advancement or payment to all of the rights of recovery of an Indemnified Person against the Purchaser, the Company or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries. The Purchaser, the Company and each of the Indemnified Persons agrees that the Sponsor Indemnitors are express third party beneficiaries of the terms of this Section 8.5.3.
8.5.4.    The Purchaser shall, and shall cause the Company to, cooperate, and cause each of their respective Affiliates to cooperate, in the defense of any claim that is subject to limitation of liability, advancement of expenses and/or indemnification as contemplated by this Section 8.5 or the Organizational Documents and shall provide access to properties and individuals as reasonably requested and furnish or cause to be furnished Records, information and testimony, and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials or appeals, as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith.
8.5.5.    The Purchaser shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to provide or maintain in effect for a period of six (6) years from and after the Closing Date, through the purchase of “run-off” coverage or otherwise, liability insurance covering those individuals who are covered by the liability insurance policy or policies provided for managers, directors and officers of the Company and the Company’s Subsidiaries as of the date hereof (the “Existing Policies”) on terms comparable and no less favorable in the aggregate in all respects to the Existing Policies, and such coverage shall contain minimum aggregate limits of liability at least equal to that of the Existing Policies and deductibles no greater than those of the Existing Policies;

-55-
#25932618 v26



provided, however, that if such “run-off” or other coverage is not available at a cost not greater than three hundred percent (300%) of the annual premiums paid as of the date hereof under the Existing Policies (the “Insurance Cap”), then the Company and its Subsidiaries shall be required to obtain as much coverage as is possible under substantially similar policies for such annual premiums as do not exceed the Insurance Cap.
8.5.6.    In the event that the Purchaser, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity in such consolidation or merger, or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of the Purchaser or the Company, as the case may be, honor the indemnification and other obligations set forth in this Section 8.5.
8.5.7.    The provisions of this Section 8.5 are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each Indemnified Person, his, her or its respective heirs and his or her respective Representatives and are in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to indemnification or contribution that any such Person may have by Legal Requirement, Contract or otherwise. The obligations of the Purchaser and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries under this Section 8.5 shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely affect any Indemnified Person to whom this Section 8.5 applies without the consent of each affected Indemnified Person (it being expressly agreed that such Persons to whom this Section 8.5 applies shall be third party beneficiaries of this Section 8.5).
8.5.8.    Nothing in this Agreement is intended to, shall be construed to or shall release, waive or impair any rights to directors’ and officers’ insurance claims or rights under any policy or Contract that is or has been in existence with respect to the Company or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries or any of their respective directors or officers, it being understood and agreed that the indemnification provided for in this Section 8.5 is not prior to or in substitution for any such claims under such policies or Contracts.
Section 8.6.    Seller Bonuses. The Purchaser acknowledges that at or after the Closing certain of the Continuing Employees may become eligible to receive a cash bonus from the Seller (each, a “Seller Bonus” and collectively, the “Seller Bonuses”), and that it will cooperate with the Seller in order to pay such Seller Bonuses. In connection with the foregoing, if the Seller notifies the Purchaser that it is required to pay a Seller Bonus to any Continuing Employee, then the Company shall accept, and the Purchaser shall cause the Company to accept, from the Seller a transfer of funds in such amount as the Seller shall so determine to enable the Company to pay the full amount of any such Seller Bonuses, plus the employer portion of any withholding Taxes related to such Seller Bonuses. Within five (5) Business Days of its receipt of such notice, the Company shall provide the Seller with wire payment instructions to deposit the necessary funds. Promptly upon the Company’s receipt of such funds, but in no event later than the first regularly scheduled payroll cycle after the date of receipt, the Company shall cause to be paid, and

-56-
#25932618 v26



the Purchaser shall cause the Company to cause to be paid, to each recipient of a Seller Bonus, as designated by the Seller, the amount of such recipient’s Seller Bonus; provided, that, all payments to such recipients pursuant to this Section 8.6 shall be net of all applicable withholding Taxes in accordance with Section 2.2.3, and the Company shall deliver to the applicable Tax Authorities, the appropriate amount of Taxes so withheld, including the employer portion of any payroll, social security, unemployment or similar Taxes, as and when required by applicable Legal Requirement. The Seller acknowledges that the Company shall act only as the paying agent of the Seller with respect to the payment of any Seller Bonus pursuant to this Section 8.6 and not in its own capacity, and as such is not assuming any obligations or liabilities associated with the Seller Bonuses, including without limitation the employer portion of any payroll, social security, unemployment or similar Taxes imposed on such bonuses, except as expressly provided in this Section 8.6.
Section 8.7.    Amendments to the R&W Insurance Policy. Promptly after it is received by Purchaser, Purchaser shall deliver a copy of the R&W Insurance Policy to Seller. From and after the issuance of the R&W Insurance Policy, the Purchaser shall not (and shall cause its Affiliates to not) amend, modify, terminate or waive any waiver of subrogation set forth in the R&W Insurance Policy without the prior written consent of the Seller.

Such Tax Returns shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past practices of the Company and its Subsidiaries. The Seller shall provide the Purchaser with a copy of any such Tax Return at least twenty (20) Business Days prior to the date such Tax Return is due for the Purchaser’s review. The Seller shall make revisions to any such Tax Return as reasonably requested by the Purchaser. In the event there is a disagreement as to whether revisions requested by the Purchaser should be included in any such Tax Return, the disagreement shall be submitted to the Arbitrator for resolution (the expenses of which shall be shared in a manner similarly to that set forth in Section 2.4.2).

modify any Tax Return or Tax election of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to Tax periods that begin on or prior to the Closing Date without prior written consent of the Seller, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.
10.2.7.    Subject to the last sentence of this Section 10.2.2, any refunds, net of Taxes to the Company and its Subsidiaries on such refunds, and any interest thereon, of Taxes received by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (or benefit of crediting an overpayment of Taxes and any interest thereon) that relate to a period (or a portion of a period) that begins on or prior to the Closing (excluding any refund or credit attributable to any loss in a Tax year (or portion of a Straddle Period) beginning after the Closing Date applied (e.g., as a carryback) to income in a Tax year (or portion of a Straddle Period) ending on or before the Closing Date) shall be owned by and delivered to the Seller within 30 days of receipt of such refund (or benefit of such crediting), unless the refund or benefit was accrued as a current asset in calculating the Adjustment Amount. Any loss, credit or other item that may be carried back from a taxable year to prior taxable years shall be so carried prior to being carried forward and no party shall permit or cause any ability to carry back to be waived. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall, upon the written request of Seller, file or cause to be filed any Tax Return or other filing necessary to obtain any such refund (and Seller shall pay all costs and expenses associated therewith). Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event that a Tax refund is subsequently determined by any Governmental Entity to be less than the amount paid by Purchaser to the Seller, Seller shall promptly return any such disallowed amounts (plus any interest in respect to such disallowed Tax refunds owed by a Governmental Entity) to Purchaser.
10.2.8.    Until such time as the DCL Elections are accepted by the Internal Revenue Service and all funds in the Amended Tax Return Escrow Account are released, the Company shall file its U.S. federal income tax returns in a manner which is consistent with it having made the DCL Elections.

Section 10.5.    Straddle Periods. For purposes of this Agreement, in the case of any period that includes but does not end on the Closing Date (a “Straddle Period”), the amount of any Taxes of the Company or its Subsidiaries not based upon or measured

-62-
#25932618 v26



by income or gain, proceeds, receipts, activities, expenses (e.g., payroll Taxes) or transactions for the Pre-Closing Tax Period will be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire taxable period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the taxable period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in such Straddle Period. The amount of any other Taxes for a Straddle Period that relate to the Pre-Closing Tax Period will be determined based on an interim closing of the books as of the close of business on the Closing Date (and for such purposes, the taxable period of any partnership or pass-through entity in which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries holds a beneficial interest shall be deemed to terminate at such time), provided, however, that any item determined on an annual or periodic basis (such as deductions for depreciation or real estate Taxes) shall be apportioned on a daily basis. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all Taxes attributable to income includable under Code Section 951 with respect to the operations and activities of the Company’s foreign Subsidiaries for the Pre-Closing Tax Period included in the last Straddle Period beginning prior to the Closing Date shall be included in the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date, even if such income is includable after the Closing Date. Notwithstanding anything else in this Section 10, the Purchaser and the Seller agree that payments made with respect to Closing Indebtedness, Transaction Expenses and Transaction Bonuses, to the extent such payments give rise to Tax deductions, Tax losses and Tax credits or otherwise may offset taxable income or Tax under applicable law, shall, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, be considered to arise in the taxable period (or portion thereof) ending on the Closing Date and the provisions of this Agreement shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent therewith. For the avoidance of doubt, any Tax refund with respect to a taxable period beginning after the Closing Date, or the portion of the Straddle Period beginning after the Closing Date, shall be for the benefit of the Buyer, even if attributable to a loss or other tax attribute arising in a Pre-Closing Tax Period, or the portion of a Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date.
Section 10.6.    Closing Date Items/No 338 Election. None of the Purchaser, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall cause or permit to be made any extraordinary transaction or event after the Closing on the Closing Date that is not contemplated by this Agreement that would result in any increased Tax liability for which Seller would be required to provide indemnification pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise pay. None of the Purchaser, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall cause or permit to be filed any election under Section 338 of the Code in connection with the purchase and sale of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement. None of the Purchaser, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall cause or permit to be filed any election to change the Tax status of any of the Company or its Subsidiaries with respect to any taxable period or portion thereof ending on or before the Closing Date.

-63-
#25932618 v26

11.3.4.    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the maximum aggregate liability of the Purchaser, the Company and its Subsidiaries for indemnification under this Agreement from and after the Closing shall be an amount equal to One Million Four Hundred Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($1,425,000); provided, however, that this limitation shall not apply to the Purchaser’s obligation to pay the Purchase Price (including any Adjustment Amount payable to the Seller) pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
11.3.5.    The Seller shall not be liable to any Indemnified Party for the satisfaction of any Debt-like Items from and after the Closing Date.
Section 11.4.    Notice of Claims.
11.4.1.    Any Indemnified Party shall promptly (and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in any event prior to the survival date of the particular representation, warranty, covenant or agreement to which a particular Claim relates as set forth in Section 11.2 above) give to the Purchaser, in the case of indemnification sought by any Seller Indemnified Party, or give to Seller, in the case of indemnification sought by any Purchaser Indemnified Party, including with respect to a Third Party Claim, a written notice describing in reasonable detail the facts giving rise to any Claims for indemnification hereunder, and shall include in such notice (if then known) the amount or the method of computation of the amount of the Losses which are the subject to such Claim, and a reference to the provision of this Agreement upon which such Claim is based; provided, that the failure to give such a notice shall extinguish the obligation to provide indemnification hereunder with respect to such Claim, but only to the extent such failure results in prejudice to the ability to defend such Claim.
11.4.2.    In the event that a third party has made a Claim which an Indemnified Party believes gives rise to a right to be indemnified pursuant to this Article XI (a “Third Party Claim”), the following shall apply:

-66-
#25932618 v26



(a)    Such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Seller or the Purchaser, as the case may be (the “Indemnifying Party Representative”), of such Third Party Claim as provided in Section 11.4.1. The Indemnifying Party Representative at its sole expense may assume the defense thereof by notifying the Indemnified Party in writing within thirty (30) days of it being notified by the Indemnified Party of the existence of the Third Party Claim. Upon the giving of such notice, the Indemnifying Party Representative will undertake, conduct and control, through counsel of its own choosing and at its own expense, the settlement or defense thereof and in which event the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party Representative in connection therewith; provided, that the Indemnified Party may participate in such settlement or defense through counsel chosen by such Indemnified Party and paid at its own expense; provided, further, that if in the reasonable opinion of counsel for such Indemnified Party, there is a reasonable likelihood of a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party Representative and the Indemnified Party, the reasonable fees and expenses of one counsel and one local counsel, if applicable, to such Indemnified Party in connection with such defense shall be subject to recovery pursuant to the indemnification provided in this Article XI.
(b)    The Indemnifying Party Representative shall have full right to enter into any compromise or settlement that is dispositive of the matter involved; provided, however, that except for the settlement of a Third Party Claim that involves (i) no obligation of any Indemnified Party other than the payment of money and, solely in the case of indemnification of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties, is fully covered by the monies then remaining in the Indemnity Escrow Account, and (ii) a release from all liability in favor of the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party Representative shall not settle or compromise any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party. No Indemnifying Party Representative may consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement in respect of a Third Party Claim that does not include a release of the Indemnified Party from all liability in respect of such Third Party Claim.
(c)    If the Indemnifying Party Representative does not so assume control of such defense, the Indemnified Party shall conduct and control such defense and the Indemnified Party shall have full right to enter into any compromise or settlement on its behalf that is dispositive of the matter involved; provided that the Indemnifying Party Representative shall be entitled to a right to participate in any such Claim or Proceeding at its own cost and expense and approve any proposed settlements.
(d)    The party controlling such defense shall keep the other party advised of the status of such Proceeding and the defense thereof and shall consider in good faith recommendations made by the other party with respect thereto.
Section 11.5.    Calculation of LossesNotwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement, all “material”, “Company Material Adverse Effect” or similar materiality type qualifications in the representations and warranties contained in Article IV and Article V shall be ignored and not given any effect for purposes of determining (i) whether or not there is any breach, inaccuracy or misrepresentation of any representation or warranty referenced in Section 11.1.1(a) or (ii) the amount of any Loss in connection with any breach, inaccuracy or misrepresentation pursuant to this Article XI.

-67-
#25932618 v26



11.5.1.    Insurance proceeds received and Tax benefits realized with respect to a Loss shall not reduce the amount of any such Loss that is indemnifiable pursuant to this Article XI.
Section 11.6.    Mitigation. Except as otherwise provided herein, upon any Indemnified Party becoming aware of any Claim as to which indemnification may be sought by such Indemnified Party pursuant to this Article XI, an Indemnified Party shall utilize all commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any Losses which may be subject to such Claim for indemnification.
Section 11.7.    Exclusive Remedy. The remedies in this Article XI shall be the exclusive remedies of the parties with respect to any and all matters covered by this Agreement that arise after the Closing, except (i) for the remedies of specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief to the extent expressly permitted elsewhere in this Agreement, and (ii) for the payment of the Adjustment Amount, if any, which shall be governed solely by Section 2.4 above. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 11.7, no party hereto shall be deemed to have waived any rights, claims, causes of action or remedies against a party if and to the extent fraud is proven on the part of such party.
Section 11.8.    Filing of DCL Election and Contact with Tax Authorities.11.8.1    Notwithstanding anything in Section 10.1 or Section 10.2, within five (5) Business Days following the date of this Agreement, the Company shall prepare or cause to be prepared the amended U.S. federal income tax returns for the DCL Years containing the DCL Elections (the “DCL Returns”). The Company shall deliver such DCL Returns to Purchaser and shall incorporate all reasonable comments from the Purchaser into the DCL Returns received by it within three (3) Business Days of the date such DCL Returns were delivered to Purchaser. The Company shall file the DCL Returns as promptly as practicable after the expiration of the three (3) Business Day period described above in this Section. The Company shall not amend, file, refile, revoke, modify or supplement any DCL Return as originally filed without the prior written consent of Seller. The Company shall promptly apprise Seller and Purchaser of all communications from the Internal Revenue Service, including notification of receipt of the DCL Returns or DCL Elections. Should the Internal Revenue Service contact or notify the Company with respect to any matter involving the DCL Returns or the DCL Elections, or otherwise seek to engage in any discussion or negotiation involving the DCL Returns or the DCL Elections, including notifying the Company of any request for additional information with respect thereto, then the Company shall so notify Seller and Purchaser within two (2) Business Days follow its receipt of such contact or notice, and the Company shall not take any action, including providing any additional information, or otherwise engage in any such discussion or negotiation, without the consent of Seller, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and the participation of Seller and its Representatives.

11.8.2    The Company hereby irrevocably authorizes Seller, Pepper Hamilton LLP and Grant Thornton LLP to act on its with respect to all matters involving the DCL Returns

-68-
#25932618 v26



and the DCL Elections, including (A) responding to requests for information or (B) any claims or Proceedings that are or may be brought by the Internal Revenue Service, and Purchaser hereby irrevocably consents to such authorization. In connection with the foregoing, Seller will undertake, conduct and control, through counsel and advisors of its own choosing and at its own expense, the settlement or defense thereof and, in which event, to the extent reasonably requested by Seller, the Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall cooperate with Seller in connection therewith; provided, that the Purchaser Indemnified Parties may participate in such settlement or defense through counsel and other advisors chosen by Purchaser and paid by Purchaser.

11.8.3    Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if requested by Seller, the Company shall file powers of attorney, in such form as prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, naming one or more of Seller, Pepper Hamilton LLP and Grant Thornton LLP as the Company’s attorney-in-fact to handle all matters with respect to the DCL Returns and DCL Elections, including (A) responding to requests for information or (B) any claims or Proceedings that are or may be brought by the Internal Revenue Service. As and when requested by Seller, the Company shall promptly file additional powers of attorney with the Internal Revenue Service naming such other Persons as its attorney-in-fact with respect to the DCL Returns and DCL Elections. The Company shall not revoke any powers of attorney previously filed with the Internal Revenue Service, file any other powers of attorney with the Internal Revenue Service or extend the statute of limitations, in each case with respect to the DCL Returns and DCL Elections, without the prior written consent of Seller.

11.8.4     Seller shall have full right to enter into any compromise or settlement that is dispositive of any claim or Proceeding brought by the Internal Revenue Service with respect to the DCL Returns and the DCL Elections; provided, however, that any such settlement that involves obligations on the part of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries other than the payment of money that is fully covered by the monies in the Amended Tax Return Escrow Account, shall require the prior written consent of Purchaser. Neither the Company nor any Purchaser Indemnified Party may consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement in respect of a claim or Proceeding involving the DCL Returns or the DCL Elections without the prior written consent of Seller.

11.8.5    The provisions of this Section 11.8 supersede in their entirety the provisions of Section 11.4 of this Agreement with respect to the process of indemnification of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties under Section 11.1.3 of this Agreement.

Section 11.9.    Disbursements From Amended Tax Return Escrow Amount. The following provisions apply to disbursements from the Amended Tax Return Escrow Amount:
11.9.1.    On the date that is 121 days after the receipt by the Company of notice from the Internal Revenue Service that the DCL Returns and the DCL Elections relating to the DCL Years have been assigned for review, Purchaser and Seller shall cause to be delivered to the Escrow Agent a duly executed joint written direction, in the form attached to the Escrow Agreement, authorizing the release to Seller of the

-69-
#25932618 v26



full amount of the Amended Tax Return Escrow Amount (the “Seller DCL Direction”); provided, however, if the Internal Revenue Service requests an extension of time to review such DCL Returns and such DCL Elections, then Purchaser and Seller shall cause to be delivered to the Escrow Agent a duly executed Seller DCL Direction on the date which is one (1) Business Day following the date to which such review period is extended (provided if any additional requests for extension have been made, the Seller DCL Direction shall be delivered on the date which is one (1) Business Day following the expiration of the latest extension); provided, further, notwithstanding the foregoing, in any event, Purchaser and Seller shall cause to be delivered to the Escrow Agent a duly executed Seller DCL Direction on the date which is one (1) Business Day following the date that the Internal Revenue Service provides written notice that the Company has reasonable cause to amend all of the DCL Returns.
11.9.2.    If the Internal Revenue Service provides written notice to the Company that it does not have reasonable cause to file the DCL Elections and DCL Returns for the DCL Years and, as a result thereof, additional Taxes are due from the Company arising from the Company’s failure to file a DCL Election at the time it filed a particular DCL Return (the “IRS Tax Assessment”) and, at the time the Company receives the IRS Tax Assessment, there are funds in the Amended Tax Return Escrow Account, then the amounts in the Amended Tax Return Escrow Account shall be held by the Escrow Agent until there is a final resolution of the IRS Tax Assessment in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.8 above. Within two (2) Business Days following such final resolution of the IRS Tax Assessment, Purchaser and Seller shall provide a joint written direction to the Escrow Agent, in the form attached to the Escrow Agreement, to deliver, by wire transfer of immediately available U.S. Dollars, to the Seller or the Internal Revenue Service, the amounts to be released in accordance with such resolution.

Section 11.10.    Disbursements from the Indemnity Escrow Account. If any Purchaser Indemnified Party is entitled to recover any amounts from the Indemnity Escrow Account pursuant to this Agreement, then the Purchaser and the Seller shall promptly provide a joint written instruction to the Escrow Agent to deliver such amounts to the Purchaser (or any Person designated by the Purchaser). If, at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date that is eighteen (18) months after the Closing Date (the “Escrow Termination Date”), there are any amounts remaining in the Indemnity Escrow Account, then the Seller shall be entitled to receive such funds, and the Purchaser and the Seller shall, within two (2) Business Days of such time, provide a joint written instruction to the Escrow Agent to deliver such funds by wire transfer of immediately available U.S. Dollars to an account designated by the Seller; provided, however, that if prior to the Escrow Termination Date, the Seller has received one or more notices which set forth Claims for indemnification under Article XI for Losses (each, a “Claim Notice”) that are unresolved on the Escrow Termination Date, then an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the amount of the aggregate Losses claimed in, and reasonably expected to be incurred in connection with, each such unresolved Claim, or (ii) the amount remaining in the Indemnity Escrow Account, shall continue to be held by the Escrow Agent in the Indemnity Escrow Account to pay such claims and any other amounts associated therewith that are payable pursuant

-70-
#25932618 v26



to Section 11.1.1Article XI; and provided further, from time to time promptly after final resolution of each such Claim for indemnification, the Seller and the Purchaser will authorize the Escrow Agent to disburse all amounts remaining in the Indemnity Escrow Account to the Seller in the same manner as described above, subject to the condition that if at such time there remains unresolved any Claim for Losses described in any Claim Notice, an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the amount of the aggregate Losses claimed in, and reasonably expected to be incurred in connection with, each such Claim Notice or (ii) the amount remaining in the Escrow Account, shall be maintained in the Indemnity Escrow Account. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Notice of Disagreement has been delivered pursuant to Section 2.4.2, and the matters set forth therein remain unresolved as of the Escrow Termination Date, an amount equal to the disputed amount shall continue to be held by the Escrow Agent in the Indemnity Escrow Account to satisfy any Adjustment Amount (in excess of the Adjustment Escrow Amount) pursuant to Section 2.4.3 until resolution of such dispute pursuant to Section 2.4.2, upon which the Purchaser and the Seller shall provide a joint written instruction to the Escrow Agent to deliver, by wire transfer of immediately available U.S. Dollars to the Seller, the amounts to be released in accordance with such resolution.
Section 11.11.    Disbursements from Section 11.1.4 Escrow Account. If any Purchaser Indemnified Party is entitled to recover any amounts from the Section 11.14 Escrow Account pursuant to this Agreement, then the Purchaser and the Seller shall promptly provide a joint written instruction to the Escrow Agent to deliver such amounts to the Purchaser (or any Person designated by the Purchaser). If, at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date that is one (1) year after the Closing Date, there are any amounts remaining in the Section 11.1.4 Escrow Account, then the Seller shall be entitled to receive such funds, and the Purchaser and the Seller shall, within two (2) Business Days of such time, provide a joint written instruction to the Escrow Agent to deliver such funds by wire transfer of immediately available U.S. Dollars to an account designated by the Seller; provided, however, that if prior to such date, the Seller has received one or more Claim Notices relating to the Section 11.1.4 Matters that are then unresolved, then an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the amount of the aggregate Losses claimed in, and reasonably expected to be incurred in connection with, each such unresolved Claim, or (ii) the amount remaining in the Section 11.1.4 Escrow Account, shall continue to be held by the Escrow Agent to pay such claims and any other amounts associated therewith that are payable pursuant to Article XI11.1.4; and provided further, from time to time promptly after final resolution of each such Claim for indemnification, the Seller and the Purchaser will authorize the Escrow Agent to disburse all amounts remaining in the Section 11.1.4 Escrow Account to the Seller in the same manner as described above, subject to the condition that if at such time there remains unresolved any Claim for Losses described in any Claim Notice, an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the amount of the aggregate Losses claimed in, and reasonably expected to be incurred in connection with, each such Claim Notice or (ii) the amount remaining in the Escrow Account, shall be maintained in the Section 11.14 Escrow Account. Notwithstanding the foregoing, should there be a settlement of the Section 11.1.4 Matters in accordance with Section 11.1.4 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule, then the Purchaser and the Seller shall, within two (2) Business Days of the date of such settlement, provide a joint written instruction to the Escrow Agent to deliver such funds

-71-
#25932618 v26



by wire transfer of immediately available U.S. Dollars to such accounts of such Persons as is appropriate to effect such settlement in accordance with its terms, it being understood that amounts not paid to third parties pursuant to such settlement shall be paid to the Seller.

Section 13.8.    Schedules and Exhibits. The parties hereto agree that the Schedules and Exhibits attached hereto form an integral part of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or in any Schedule attached hereto, information disclosed on one Schedule shall be considered to be disclosure both with respect to the section of this Agreement to which such information is directly responsive and to all other sections of the Agreement to which it is reasonably apparent from the face of such disclosure that such information is responsive.

This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of such counterparts, when taken together, shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

Section 13.13.    Specific Performance. The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that the failure of any party to perform its agreements and covenants hereunder, including its failure to take all actions as are necessary on its part to consummate the Closing in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, will cause irreparable injury to the other parties, for which damages, even if available, will not be an adequate remedy.

respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates will be asserted, following the Closing, by any of the Purchaser, the Seller, the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates, either as a conflict of interest with respect to, or as a basis to preclude, challenge or otherwise disqualify Pepper Hamilton LLP from, any current or future representation of the Seller, the Company, or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates, in any matter involving this Agreement or any Transaction Document, or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, including any representations in negotiations, transactions, counseling or litigation adverse to the Purchaser, the Seller, the Company, or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates, (b) hereby waives any conflict of interest that exists on or prior to the Closing, or that might be asserted to exist after the Closing, and any other basis that might be asserted to preclude, challenge or otherwise disqualify Pepper Hamilton LLP in any representation of the Seller, the Company, or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates, with respect to any such matter, and (c) intends for the foregoing conflicts waiver to be effective and fully enforceable and to be relied upon by Pepper Hamilton LLP.
