(a)At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any holder of Common Stock, (i) each share (a “Common Share”) of Common Stock that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than (x) shares of Common Stock, if any, held in the treasury of the Company, which treasury shares shall be canceled as part of the Merger, (y) shares of Common Stock, if any, owned by a direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Company, which shares shall be converted into that number of shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Surviving Corporation that bears the same ratio to the aggregate number of outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Surviving Corporation as the number of shares of Common Stock held by such Subsidiary bore to the aggregate number of outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time, and (z) shares (each, a “Dissenting Share” and, together, the “Dissenting Shares”) of Common Stock held by Persons who object to the Merger and comply with the provisions of the DGCL concerning the rights of holders of Common Stock to dissent from the Merger and require appraisal of their shares of Common Stock, which shares described in clauses (x), (y) and (z) shall not constitute “Common Shares” hereunder), shall thereupon be converted into and become the right to receive the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration, as determined pursuant to Section 3.1(d), (ii) each option to purchase shares of Common Stock (an “Option”) shall, in each case, immediately prior to the Effective Time terminate and be forfeited for no consideration and (iii) each outstanding warrant to purchase shares of Common Stock (a “Warrant”) shall, in each case, at the Effective Time terminate and be forfeited for no consideration.

(b)At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Acquiror or Merger Sub, each share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of

Merger Sub shall be converted into one share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Surviving Corporation.

(c)Subject to the adjustments set forth in Section 3.4, the “Merger Consideration” shall consist of Two Hundred Thirty Million Dollars ($230,000,000) in cash (the “Enterprise Value”), plus (i) the Estimated Net Working Capital Adjustment Amount, less (ii) the Estimated Closing Date Funded Debt Amount, plus (iii) the Estimated Closing Date Cash Amount, less (iv) the amount of Holder Allocable Expenses paid by Acquiror to the Holder Representative at Closing in accordance with Section 3.5, and less (v) the Estimated Closing Date Outstanding Company Expenses.

(d)The Merger Consideration shall be allocated among the Holders as set forth in this Section 3.1(d). Each Holder of Common Shares shall be entitled to receive in respect of the Common Shares held by such Holder immediately prior to the Effective Time a portion of the Merger Consideration equal to (i) the Cash Per Fully-Diluted Common Share (as defined below), multiplied by (ii) the number of Common Shares held by such Holder immediately prior to the Effective Time. For purposes of the foregoing, the “Cash Per Fully-Diluted Common Share” shall mean the Merger Consideration, divided by the Aggregate Fully-Diluted Common Shares.

3.2Payment and Exchange of Certificates.

(a)Immediately prior to the Effective Time, Acquiror shall pay to an exchange agent (the “Exchange Agent”) reasonably selected by the Company, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, an amount (the “Funding Amount”) equal to (i) the Merger Consideration (determined before giving effect to the adjustments provided for in Section 3.4), minus (ii) the product of (A) the number of Dissenting Shares and (B) the Cash Per Fully-Diluted Common Share (determined before giving effect to the adjustments provided for in Section 3.4), minus (iii) the Escrow Amount, minus (iv) any amounts subtracted pursuant to Section 3.2(c) below; provided that Acquiror will promptly thereafter pay to the Exchange Agent any amounts by which the Funding Amount increases due to any Dissenting Shares becoming Common Shares in accordance with Section 3.10 (which amounts shall not, for the avoidance of doubt, be payable from the Special Indemnification Escrow Funds). In the event that any holder of Dissenting Shares is entitled, pursuant to a final order and judgment in any appraisal action regarding Dissenting Shares under the DGCL that is no longer subject to further appeal or review whether by affirmance or expiration of any possible appeal or review, writ of certiorari, by leave, lapse of time or otherwise, to receive consideration that is greater in amount than the Cash Per Fully-Diluted Common Share for any such Dissenting Shares that such holder would have been entitled to receive pursuant to this Agreement, then (i) an amount equal to the Cash Per Fully-Diluted Common Share for any such Dissenting Shares shall be payable to such holder by Acquiror (which amount shall not, for the avoidance of doubt, be payable from the Special Indemnification Escrow Funds) and (ii) the excess of such consideration over the amount equal to the Cash Per Fully-Diluted Common Share for any such Dissenting Shares shall be payable from the Special Indemnification Escrow Funds.

(b)Each Holder of an outstanding certificate or certificates for Common Shares (collectively, the “Certificates”) that has not delivered the Certificate(s) representing such

Common Shares to Acquiror at or prior to the Effective Time, upon surrender of such Certificates to the Exchange Agent after the Effective Time, shall be entitled to receive from the Exchange Agent in exchange therefor (subject to the provisions of Section 3.4) such portion of the Merger Consideration to which such Holder is entitled pursuant to Section 3.1(d) in respect of such Common Shares.

(c)With respect to any Holder that delivers the Certificate(s) representing such Common Shares to Acquiror at or prior to the Effective Time, Acquiror shall pay the amount which such Holder is entitled pursuant to Section 3.1(d), at the Closing by wire transfer of immediately available funds, directly to such Holder, and in such case the Funding Amount shall be reduced by such amount. Pending such surrender and exchange of a Holder’s Certificate(s), a Holder’s Certificate(s) shall be deemed for all purposes to evidence such Holder’s right to receive the portion of the Merger Consideration into which such Common Shares shall have been converted by the Merger. All Merger Consideration paid or payable upon the surrender of Certificates, and from and after the Effective Time, there shall be no further registration of transfers of Common Stock on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates are presented to the Surviving Corporation, they shall be cancelled and exchanged for the Merger Consideration provided for, and in accordance with the procedures set forth, in this Article III.

3.3Estimated Closing Statement. Not less than four (4) Business Days prior to the Closing Date and in no event more than ten (10) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to Acquiror a written statement (the “Estimated Closing Statement”) setting forth (a) its good faith estimate of (i) the Closing Date Net Working Capital (the “Estimated Closing Date Net Working Capital”), (ii) the Closing Date Funded Debt Amount (the “Estimated Closing Date Funded Debt Amount”), (iii) the Closing Date Cash Amount (the “Estimated Closing Date Cash Amount”); and the Closing Date Outstanding Company Expenses (the “Estimated Closing Date Outstanding Company Expenses”) and (b) the Company’s calculation of the Estimated Net Working Capital Adjustment Amount.

3.4Adjustment Amount.

(a)As soon as reasonably practicable following the Closing Date, and in any event within seventy-five (75) calendar days thereof, Acquiror shall prepare and deliver to the Holder Representative a calculation of (i) the Closing Date Net Working Capital, (ii) the Closing Date Funded Debt Amount, (iii) the Closing Date Cash Amount and (iv) the Closing Date Outstanding Company Expenses (the “Post-Closing Statement”). If Acquiror’s calculation of the Closing Date Net Working Capital, the Closing Date Funded Debt Amount, the Closing Date Cash Amount and the Closing Date Outstanding Company Expenses results in a calculation of the Adjustment Amount that is a positive number, (i) Acquiror and the Holder Representative shall immediately deliver joint written instruction to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to pay to each Holder an amount in cash equal to (A) the Adjustment Escrow Funds, multiplied by (B) such Holder’s Escrow Percentage, and (ii) Acquiror shall pay to each Holder an amount in cash equal to (x) such Holder’s Escrow Percentage, multiplied by (y) Acquiror’s calculation of the Adjustment Amount. If Acquiror’s calculation of the Closing Date Net Working Capital, the Closing Date Funded Debt Amount, the Closing Date Cash Amount and the Closing Date Outstanding Company Expenses results in a calculation of the Adjustment

Amount that is a negative number and the absolute value of such calculation of the Adjustment Amount is less than the amount of the Adjustment Escrow Funds, Acquiror and the Holder Representative shall immediately deliver joint written instruction to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to pay to each Holder an amount in cash equal to (i) the excess of the entire Adjustment Escrow Funds over Acquiror’s calculation of the Adjustment Amount, multiplied by (ii) such Holder’s Escrow Percentage (it being understood and agreed that such payment shall not limit the rights of the Holder Representative pursuant to this Section 3.4). Following the Closing, Acquiror shall provide the Holder Representative and its representatives access to the records, properties and personnel of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries relating to the preparation of the Post-Closing Statement and the calculation of the Closing Date Net Working Capital, the Closing Date Funded Debt Amount, the Closing Date Cash Amount and the Closing Date Outstanding Company Expenses, and shall cause the personnel of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries to cooperate with the Holder Representative in connection with its review of the Post-Closing Statement and such calculations.

(b)If the Holder Representative shall disagree with the calculation of the Closing Date Net Working Capital, the Closing Date Funded Debt Amount, the Closing Date Cash Amount and/or the Closing Date Outstanding Company Expenses, it shall notify Acquiror of such disagreement in writing, setting forth in reasonable detail the particulars of such disagreement, within seventy-five (75) calendar days after its receipt of the Post-Closing Statement. In the event that the Holder Representative does not provide such a notice of disagreement within such seventy-five (75) day period, the Holder Representative shall be deemed to have accepted the Post-Closing Statement and the calculation of the Closing Date Net Working Capital, the Closing Date Funded Debt Amount, the Closing Date Cash Amount and/or the Closing Date Outstanding Company Expenses delivered by Acquiror, which shall be final, binding and conclusive for all purposes hereunder. In the event any such notice of disagreement is timely provided, Acquiror and the Holder Representative shall use reasonable best efforts for a period of thirty (30) days (or such longer period as they may mutually agree) to resolve any disagreements with respect to the calculations of the Closing Date Net Working Capital, the Closing Date Funded Debt Amount, the Closing Date Cash Amount and/or the Closing Date Outstanding Company Expenses. If, at the end of such period, they are unable to resolve such disagreements, then Grant Thornton LLP (or such other independent accounting or financial consulting firm of recognized national standing as may be mutually selected by Acquiror and the Holder Representative) (the “Independent Accountant”) shall resolve any remaining disagreements. Each of Acquiror and the Holder Representative shall promptly provide their assertions regarding the Closing Date Net Working Capital, the Closing Date Funded Debt Amount, the Closing Date Cash Amount and/or the Closing Date Outstanding Company Expenses and, to the extent relevant thereto, the Post-Closing Statement, in writing to the Independent Accountant and to each other. The Independent Accountant shall be instructed to render its determination with respect to such disagreements (and provide in reasonable detail the basis for each such determination) as soon as reasonably practicable (which the parties hereto agree should not be later than forty-five (45) days following the day on which the disagreement is referred to the Independent Accountant). The Independent Accountant shall base its determination solely on (i) the written submissions of the parties and shall not conduct an independent investigation and (ii) the extent (if any) to which the Closing Date Net Working Capital, the Closing Date Funded Debt Amount, the Closing Date Cash Amount and/or the Closing Date Outstanding Company Expenses require adjustment (only with respect to the

remaining disagreements submitted to the Independent Accountant) in order to be determined in accordance with Section 3.4(a) (including the definitions of the defined terms used in Section 3.4(a)), and, with respect to each disputed item, the Independent Accountant’s determination, if not in accordance with the position of either Acquiror or the Holder Representative, shall not be in excess of the higher, nor less than the lower, of the amounts presented in Acquiror’s calculation of the Adjustment Amount pursuant to Section 3.4(a) or in the Holder Representative’s written notice of disagreement of such calculation pursuant to this Section 3.4(b). The determination of the Independent Accountant shall be final, conclusive and binding on the parties and no party shall seek further recourse to any Governmental Authority other than to enforce the determination of the Independent Accountant. The parties acknowledge that the agreements contained in this Section 3.4 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that, without these agreements, the parties would not enter into this Agreement. If Acquiror fails promptly to pay any Adjustment Amount that may be payable to the Holders in accordance with this Section 3.4, or if either party fails to give the joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent in accordance with this Section 3.4 and, in order to obtain such payment or delivery of the joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent, a party commences an Action that results in a judgment against the other party for such Adjustment Amount or for the delivery of the joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent, the losing party shall pay to the prevailing party (or deliver the joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent directing it to pay), together with such Adjustment Amount, in accordance with Section 3.4(a) and Section 3.4(d), interest on such Adjustment Amount from the date Acquiror delivers to the Holder Representative its calculation of the Closing Date Net Working Capital, the Closing Date Funded Debt Amount, the Closing Date Cash Amount and the Closing Date Outstanding Company Expenses at a rate per annum equal to the prime rate as published in the Wall Street Journal, Eastern Edition, in effect on the date hereof. In addition the prevailing party shall be entitled to any fees, costs and expenses (including legal fees) incurred by the prevailing party in connection with any such Action. The date on which the Closing Date Net Working Capital, the Closing Date Funded Debt Amount, the Closing Date Cash Amount and the Closing Date Outstanding Company Expenses are finally determined in accordance with this Section 3.4(b) is hereinafter referred to as the “Determination Date.” All fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant relating to the work, if any, to be performed by the Independent Accountant hereunder shall be borne one-half (50%) by Acquiror, on the one hand, and one-half (50%) by the Holder Representative, first as a Holder Allocable Expense and then, to the extent in excess of the amount of Holder Allocable Expenses paid by Acquiror to the Holder Representative at Closing in accordance with Section 3.5, from the Adjustment Escrow Funds (and, if applicable pursuant to the third sentence of Section 3.4(d), the Indemnification Escrow Funds), on the other hand.

(c)If the Adjustment Amount is a positive number, then the Merger Consideration shall be increased by the Adjustment Amount, and if the Adjustment Amount is a negative number, the Merger Consideration shall be decreased by the absolute value of the Adjustment Amount. The Adjustment Amount shall be paid in accordance with Section 3.4(a) and Section 3.4(d).

(d)On the Closing Date, Acquiror shall pay a portion of the Merger Consideration equal to the Escrow Amount to Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as escrow agent of the parties hereto (the “Escrow Agent”), to be held in escrow; provided that Acquiror will promptly thereafter pay to the Escrow Agent any amounts by which the Escrow

Amount increases due to any Dissenting Shares becoming Common Shares in accordance with Section 3.10. The Escrow Amount shall be held and invested by the Escrow Agent in accordance with the terms of an Escrow Agreement in the form attached hereto as Annex B (the “Escrow Agreement”). If the Adjustment Amount is a positive number, then, promptly following the Determination Date, (x) Acquiror shall within five (5) Business Days of the Determination Date pay to each Holder an amount in cash equal to (i) such Holder’s Escrow Percentage, multiplied by (ii) the Adjustment Amount, less any portion of the Adjustment Amount previously paid by Acquiror to such Holder pursuant to Section 3.4(a), and (y) Acquiror and the Holder Representative shall immediately deliver joint written instruction to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to pay to each Holder an amount in cash equal to (i) the Adjustment Escrow Funds, multiplied by (ii) such Holder’s Escrow Percentage, less any portion of the Adjustment Escrow Funds previously paid by the Escrow Agent to such Holder pursuant to Section 3.4(a). If the Adjustment Amount is a negative number (the absolute value of such amount, the “Deficit Amount”), then, promptly following the Determination Date, and in any event within five (5) Business Days of the Determination Date, (x) Acquiror and the Holder Representative shall immediately deliver joint written instruction to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to pay to Acquiror an amount of Adjustment Escrow Funds, and if such Adjustment Escrow Funds are insufficient to satisfy the Deficit Amount, from the Indemnification Escrow Funds, equal to the Deficit Amount (subject to the last sentence of this Section 3.4(d)), and (y) if any of the Adjustment Escrow Funds remain after such payment to Acquiror, the Escrow Agent shall pay to each Holder an amount in cash equal to (i) the balance of the Adjustment Escrow Funds, multiplied by (ii) such Holder’s Escrow Percentage. Upon determination of the Adjustment Amount pursuant to Section 3.4(b) and Section 3.4(c), each of Acquiror and the Holder Representative shall execute joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to disburse the Adjustment Escrow Funds (and, if applicable pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Indemnification Escrow Funds) in accordance with this Section 3.4(d). In no event shall any Holder have any liability under this Section 3.4 in excess of such Holder’s Escrow Percentage of the Adjustment Escrow Funds and the Indemnification Escrow Funds. In no event shall Acquiror be entitled to payment pursuant to this Section 3.4(d) of any amount in excess of the sum of the Adjustment Escrow Funds and the Indemnification Escrow Funds.

(e)Except as otherwise required by Law, the parties hereto agree to treat for all Tax purposes any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 3.4 as adjustments to the Merger Consideration.

3.5Holder Allocable Expenses. On the Closing Date, Acquiror shall pay to the Holder Representative a cash amount equal to $500,000 (the “Holder Allocable Expenses”), which shall be used by the Holder Representative in its capacity as such. Whether or not paid on or prior to the Closing Date, no amount shall be included on the Post-Closing Statement, the Estimated Closing Date Net Working Capital or the Closing Date Net Working Capital, in each case, with respect to liabilities for the Holder Allocable Expenses.

3.6Outstanding Company Expenses. Prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall provide to Acquiror a written report setting forth a list of the following fees and expenses incurred by the Company in connection with the preparation, negotiation and execution of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and the consummation of the transactions

contemplated hereby and thereby, solely to the extent such fees and expenses are incurred through the Closing and unpaid as of 11:59 p.m. California time on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date, whether accrued for or not: (a) the fees and disbursements of outside counsel to the Company incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, (b) the fees and expenses of any other agents, advisors, consultants and experts employed by the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including the Exchange Agent which shall be payable upon the engagement of the Exchange Agent prior to Closing, (c) the Change in Control Payments, if any, (d) any and all amounts due from the Company or any Company Subsidiary to Oliver Wyman, if any, and (e) the premium and associated fees in connection with the “tail” policy providing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage pursuant to Section 7.2(b) (the fees and expenses in the foregoing clauses (a) through (e), collectively, the “Outstanding Company Expenses”). Immediately prior to the Effective Time and concurrently with the payment to the Exchange Agent of the Funding Amount, Acquiror shall pay to such third-parties as are directed by the Holder Representative with written evidence of the total amount due such third party, by wire transfer of immediately available funds an amount equal to the Outstanding Company Expenses. No amount shall be included on the Post-Closing Statement, the Estimated Closing Date Net Working Capital or the Closing Date Net Working Capital, in each case, with respect to liabilities for the Outstanding Company Expenses paid in accordance with this Section 3.6. For the avoidance of doubt, no amounts payable in connection with the repayment of the Closing Date Funded Debt Amount shall be included in the Outstanding Company Expenses.

3.7Repayment of Funded Debt. Prior to the Closing, the Company shall deliver to the Acquiror a payoff letter from each lender of the Existing Credit Facilities (and any other indebtedness for borrowed money to banks or financial institutions, if any), which payoff letter shall state the amount of the applicable Funded Debt owed to such lender and that, if such amount is paid to such lender on the Closing Date (or thereafter, if any applicable per diem amounts are paid), such lender will release any and all Liens that it may have with respect to the Company, the Company Subsidiaries and their assets. At the Closing, the Acquiror shall pay in full (on behalf of the Company), or shall cause the Company to pay in full (and shall provide sufficient funds to the Company to enable it to make such payments), an amount equal to the Funded Debt as set forth in such payoff letters for the Closing Date by wire transfer of immediately available funds in the amounts and to the lenders identified such payoff letters.

3.8Exchange Agent. Promptly following the date which is one year after the Effective Time, Acquiror shall instruct the Exchange Agent to deliver to Acquiror all cash, Certificates and other documents in its possession relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and the Exchange Agent’s duties shall terminate. Thereafter, each Holder of a Certificate (other than Certificates representing Dissenting Shares) may surrender such Certificate to Acquiror and (subject to applicable abandoned property, escheat and similar Laws) receive in consideration therefor, and Acquiror shall promptly pay, the portion of the Merger Consideration deliverable in respect thereof as determined in accordance with this Article III, without any interest thereon.

3.9Lost Certificate. In the event any Certificate has been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and the posting by such Person of a bond, in such reasonable amount as

Acquiror may direct, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Exchange Agent shall issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the Merger Consideration deliverable in respect thereof as determined in accordance with this Article III.

3.10Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article III, the Dissenting Shares shall not be converted into a right to receive the Merger Consideration and the holders thereof shall be entitled to such rights as are granted by Section 262 of the DGCL to the extent that such rights were not waived by such holders by execution of the Stockholders Agreement. Each holder of Dissenting Shares who is entitled to exercise the rights granted by Section 262 of the DGCL pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence and who becomes entitled to payment for such shares pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL shall receive payment therefor from the Surviving Corporation in accordance with the DGCL; provided, however, that (i) if any such holder of Dissenting Shares shall have failed to establish such holder’s entitlement to appraisal rights as provided in Section 262 of the DGCL, or (ii) if any such holder of Dissenting Shares shall have effectively withdrawn such holder’s demand for appraisal of such shares or lost such holder’s right to appraisal and payment for such holder’s shares under Section 262 of the DGCL, such holder shall forfeit the right to appraisal of such shares and each such share shall not constitute a Dissenting Share and shall be treated as if it had been a Common Share immediately prior to the Effective Time and converted, as of the Effective Time, into a right to receive from the Surviving Corporation the portion of the Merger Consideration deliverable in respect thereof as determined in accordance with this Article III, without any interest thereon.

3.11Withholding. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, any consideration payable in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby will be reduced by any Tax withholding required by Law, and any amount so withheld in compliance with applicable Law will be treated for all purposes hereof as having been paid to the Person with respect to which the withholding was made. Any Person that expects to so withhold (or expects its agent to so withhold) any such Tax (other than any such Tax that is imposed on consideration that is properly treated as compensation for U.S. federal income Tax purposes) will provide notice of the expected withholding at least five (5) Business Days prior to the withholding to the Person with respect to which the withholding is to be made (and the notice will include the legal authority and the calculation method for the expected withholding), and the parties hereto will use reasonable efforts to cooperate to minimize the amount of the withholding.

3.12RWI Policy. Acquiror shall pay the premium and all other costs required for issuance of the RWI Policy at Closing. The RWI Policy shall include a provision whereby insurer expressly waives, and agrees not to pursue, directly or indirectly, any subrogation rights against the Holder Representative or any Holder with respect to any claim made by any insured thereunder (except for intentional fraud in connection with the transaction by that Holder or Holder Representative).

The Acquiror shall cause the Company and the Company Subsidiaries to keep in effect, in its Organizational Documents, a provision that provides for indemnification of the Company Indemnified Persons to the extent required under this Section 7.2(a). Without limiting the foregoing, Acquiror agrees that any indemnification and advancement of expenses available to any current or former director of the Company or its Subsidiaries by virtue of such current or former director’s service as a partner or employee of any investment fund that is an Affiliate of the Company prior to the Closing (any such current or former director, a “Sponsor Director”) shall be secondary to the indemnification and advancement of expenses to be provided by Acquiror, the Company and its Subsidiaries pursuant to this Section 7.2 and that Acquiror, the Company and its Subsidiaries (A) shall be the primary indemnitors of first resort for Sponsor Directors pursuant to this Section 7.2, (B) shall be fully responsible for the advancement of all expenses and the payment of all Damages with respect to Sponsor Directors which are addressed by this Section 7.2 and (C) shall not make any claim for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect of any other indemnification available to any Sponsor Director with respect to any matter addressed by this Section 7.2. Acquiror shall assume, and be jointly and severally liable for, and shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to honor, each of the covenants in this Section 7.2.

(b)At the Closing, the Company and the Company Subsidiaries shall purchase, with the premium and associated fees paid included as an Outstanding Company Expense, a “tail” policy providing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage, for a period of six (6) years from the Effective Time, for the benefit of those Persons who are covered by the Company’s and the Company Subsidiaries’ directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies as of the Closing Date with respect to matters occurring at or prior to the Closing. Acquiror shall not take, and shall cause the Company and the Company Subsidiaries not to take, any action to amend or terminate such policy and shall cause the Company and the Company Subsidiaries to maintain in effect such policy for the term thereof; provided, however, that, if any claim is asserted or made within such six-year period, any insurance required to be maintained under this Section 7.2 shall be continued by the Company or the Company Subsidiaries, as applicable, in respect of such claim until the final disposition thereof.

(c)Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, this Section 7.2 shall survive the consummation of the Merger indefinitely and shall be binding, jointly and severally, on all successors and assigns of Acquiror and the Surviving Corporation. In the event that Acquiror or the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective successors or assigns consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Acquiror or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, shall succeed to the obligations set forth in this Section 7.2.

7.3Post-Closing Access; Preservation of Records. From and after the Closing and to the extent consistent with all applicable Laws, Acquiror will make or cause to be made available to the Holder Representative all books, records and documents of the Company and each of the Company Subsidiaries (and the assistance of employees responsible for such books, records and

documents) during regular business hours as may be reasonably necessary for (i) investigating, settling, preparing for the defense or prosecution of, defending or prosecuting any Action (other than any Action, suit or proceeding against Acquiror or any of its Affiliates, including the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, that does not relate to any matter indemnifiable by any of the Holders pursuant to Article XII for which the Holder Representative is entitled to control the defense thereof), (ii) preparing reports to stockholders and Governmental Authorities or (iii) such other purposes for which access to such documents is believed by the Holder Representative to be reasonably necessary, including preparing and delivering any accounting or other statement provided for under this Agreement or otherwise; provided, however, that access to such books, records, documents and employees will not materially interfere with the normal operations of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries and the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries incurred in connection therewith will be paid by the Holder Representative out of the Holder Allocable Expenses. Acquiror will cause the Company and each of the Company Subsidiaries to maintain and preserve all such books, records and other documents for any applicable statutory or regulatory retention period, as the same may be extended and, in each case, shall offer to transfer such records to the Holder Representative at the end of any such period.

7.4Special Property Tax Matter. Following the Closing, Acquiror shall, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve the Special Property Tax Matter in a way that results in the lowest Tax liability arising out of the Special Property Tax Matter to the Surviving Corporation as is reasonably practicable. For so long as the Special Property Tax Matter remains a Pending Claim, the last sentence of Section 8.3(c) shall apply to such Pending Claim.

8.1Support of Transaction. Without limiting any covenant contained in Article VI or Article VII, including the obligations of the Company, Acquiror and Merger Sub with respect to the notifications, filings, reaffirmations and applications described in Section 6.3 and Section 7.1, which obligations shall control to the extent of any conflict with the succeeding provisions of this Section 8.1, the Company, Acquiror and Merger Sub shall each, and shall each cause their respective Subsidiaries to: (a) use commercially reasonable efforts to assemble, prepare and file any information (and, as needed, to supplement such information) as may be reasonably necessary to obtain as promptly as practicable all governmental and regulatory consents required to be obtained in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, (b) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all material consents and approvals of third-parties that any of Acquiror, Merger Sub, the Company, or their respective Affiliates are required to obtain in order to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (c) take such other action as may reasonably be necessary or as another party may reasonably request to satisfy the conditions of Article IX or otherwise to comply with this Agreement and to consummate the transaction contemplated hereby as soon as practicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries or their Affiliates be obligated to bear any expense or pay any fee or grant any concession in connection with obtaining any consents, authorizations or approvals pursuant to the terms of any Contract to which the Company or any

of the Company Subsidiaries is a party in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

8.2Escrow Agreement. Each of the Company, the Holder Representative, Acquiror and Merger Sub shall execute and deliver to one another the Escrow Agreement at the Closing.

8.3Tax Matters.

(a)Acquiror agrees to file a consolidated federal Income Tax Return with the Company starting on the day following the Closing Date and to cause the Company to become a member of the affiliated group of corporations of which Acquiror is the common parent or of which Acquiror is a member on the day following the Closing Date. For any Tax Return with respect to any taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date or any Straddle Tax Period that is required by Law to be filed by the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries after the Closing Date (taking into account any applicable extension of the time for filing), Acquiror agrees that (i) the Tax Return will be prepared and timely filed in a manner consistent with the most recent past practice of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries (except as otherwise required by Law), (ii) the Tax Return will be delivered to the Holder Representative, for the Holder Representative’s review, a reasonable period of time before the filing date (and no later than twenty (20) Business Days before the filing date if the Tax Return is an Income Tax Return), and (iii) the Acquiror will consider in good faith any revision reasonably requested in writing by the Holder Representative and Acquiror and the Holder Representative will cooperate in good faith to resolve any disagreements relating to such Tax Return. In the event that Acquiror and the Holder Representative cannot resolve any such disagreement, the matter shall be submitted to the Independent Accountant to resolve, in accordance with the principles set forth in Section 3.4; provided that Acquiror shall be entitled to file any such Tax Return prior to resolution by the Independent Accountant in order to avoid the late filing of such Tax Return, in which case an amended Tax Return shall be filed, if necessary to reflect the Independent Accountant’s determination and an adjustment shall be made to any amount paid or required to be paid pursuant to Section 12.2(a), if necessary, to reflect such determination. Acquiror will, at its expense, timely file all Tax Returns and other documentation necessary with respect to all Transfer Taxes and timely pay all taxes shown as due on such tax returns and, to the extent required by Law, the parties hereto will cooperate in the execution of such Tax Returns and other documentation.

(b)Each party hereto agrees to, and agrees to cause its Affiliates to, cooperate fully, as reasonably requested by the other parties, in connection with the preparation of any Tax Return of the Company or the Company Subsidiaries with respect to any taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date or any Straddle Tax Period and the conduct of any Tax Contest Claim. Such cooperation shall include the retention of and (upon the other party’s request) the provision of records and information reasonably relevant to Tax matters and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information.

(c)Acquiror shall promptly notify the Holder Representative in writing upon receipt by any Acquiror Indemnified Party or any of their Affiliates of any written notice from a taxing authority of an Action with respect to Taxes of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries which may give rise to an Indemnification Claim relating to Taxes for which the

Acquiror Indemnified Parties may be entitled to indemnification under Section 12.2(a) (“Tax Contest Claim”). Such notice shall include a copy of the relevant portion of any correspondence received from the relevant Governmental Authority. Acquiror and the Holder Representative shall cooperate with each other in the conduct of any Tax Contest Claim (and provide such powers of attorney as may be necessary). Notwithstanding Section 12.3(b), the Holder Representative shall have the right to control the conduct of any Tax Contest Claim relating to any Tax period that ends on or prior to the Closing Date so long as there are remaining Indemnification Escrow Funds (any such claim, a “Holder Representative’s Tax Contest Claim”); provided that, if the resolution or settlement of such Holder Representative’s Tax Contest Claim would have an adverse effect on the Acquiror Indemnified Parties in a Post-Closing Tax Period, the Holder Representative shall keep Acquiror informed regarding the progress and substantive aspects of such Holder Representative’s Tax Contest Claim, Acquiror shall be entitled at its expense to participate in such Holder Representative’s Tax Contest Claim, and the Holder Representative shall not compromise or settle any such Holder Representative’s Tax Contest Claim without obtaining Acquiror’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Notwithstanding Section 12.3(b), Acquiror shall have the right to control the conduct of any Holder Representative’s Tax Contest Claim that the Holder Representative does not elect to control and any Tax Contest Claim that is not a Holder Representative’s Tax Contest Claim; provided that Acquiror shall keep the Holder Representative informed regarding the progress and substantive aspects of such Tax Contest Claim, the Holder Representative shall be entitled to participate in such Tax Contest Claim, and Acquiror shall not compromise or settle any such Tax Contest Claim without obtaining the Holder Representative’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(d)After the Closing and for so long as any funds remain in the Indemnification Escrow Account, except as required by Law or with the prior written consent of the Holder Representative (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), Acquiror agrees not to, and agrees to cause its Affiliates (including the Surviving Corporation and its Affiliates) not to, with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period, (i) file any amended Tax Return, (ii) make or change any Tax election, (iii) adopt or change any Tax accounting method, (iv) change any annual Tax accounting period, (v) agree to extend any statute of limitations for Taxes, (vi) initiate any voluntary disclosure with respect to Taxes, or (vii) take any other similar action relating to Taxes or Tax Returns. Acquiror agrees not to, and agrees to cause its Affiliates (including the Surviving Corporation and its Affiliates) not to, (A) make any election under Section 336 or Section 338 of the Code (or any similar provision of state, local, or foreign Tax Law) with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby unless Acquiror indemnifies the Holders for any additional Taxes resulting from such an election or elections; and provided, that no Acquiror Indemnified Party shall be entitled to make a claim for indemnification for or with respect to, and Holders shall have no liability to any Acquired Indemnified Party for or with respect to, any Taxes arising from any such election, pursuant to Section 12.2 or any other provision of this Agreement, or (B) take any action or enter into any transaction on the Closing Date after the Closing other than in the ordinary course of business or as explicitly contemplated hereby.

(e)To the extent permitted under applicable Law and to the extent necessary to cause such effect, each party hereto agrees to, and agrees to cause its Affiliates to, elect for all

Tax purposes to end on the Closing Date (at the end of the Closing Date) all taxable periods of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries beginning on or before the Closing Date. The amount of any Income Tax or any other Tax that is not a property Tax or similar ad valorem Tax or franchise tax for which no short period return is allowed for the Pre-Closing Tax Period of any Straddle 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 the foregoing purpose, (i) the taxable period of any partnership or other pass-through entity in which the Company or any the Company Subsidiaries holds a beneficial interest will be deemed to terminate at such time and (ii) no election for ratable allocation will be made under Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-76(b)(2)(ii) (or any similar provision of state, local, or foreign Tax Law)). The amount of any property Tax or similar ad valorem Tax or franchise tax for which no short period return is allowed of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries for the Pre-Closing Tax Period of any Straddle Tax Period will be deemed to be the amount of the Tax for the Straddle Tax Period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the Pre-Closing Tax Period and the denominator of which is the number of days in the Straddle Tax Period. The amount of any Tax refund or credit of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries for the Pre-Closing Tax Period of any Straddle Tax Period will be determined using the method provided in this Section 8.3(e).

(f)Except as otherwise required by Law, the parties hereto agree to treat for all Tax purposes all indemnification payments under Article XII as adjustments to the Merger Consideration.

11.1Designation and Replacement of Holder Representative. The parties have agreed that it is desirable to designate a representative to act on behalf of the Holders for certain limited purposes, as specified herein (the “Holder Representative”). The parties have designated

Odyssey Investment Partners, LLC, as the initial Holder Representative, and approval of this Agreement by the holders of Common Stock shall constitute ratification and approval of such designation. The Holder Representative may resign at any time upon notice to the Company, and the Holder Representative may be removed by the vote of Persons which collectively owned more than fifty percent (50%) of the Aggregate Fully-Diluted Common Shares immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Majority Holders”). In the event that a Holder Representative has resigned or been removed, a new Holder Representative shall be appointed by a vote of the Majority Holders, such appointment to become effective upon the written acceptance thereof by the new Holder Representative; provided that, if a Holder Representative has provided the Company with a notice of resignation and a new Holder Representative has not been appointed by a vote of the Majority Holders within thirty (30) days thereafter, the resigning Holder Representative may appoint a new Holder Representative.

11.2Authority and Rights of the Holder Representative; Limitations on Liability.

(a)The Holder Representative shall have such powers and authority as are necessary to carry out the functions assigned to it under this Agreement; provided, however, that the Holder Representative shall have no obligation to act on behalf of the Holders, except as expressly provided herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Holder Representative shall have full power, authority and discretion to (i) expend Holder Allocable Expenses, and (ii) after the Closing, negotiate and enter into amendments to this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement for and on behalf of the Holders. The Holder Representative shall have no liability to Acquiror, the Company or any Holder with respect to actions taken or omitted to be taken in its capacity as the Holder Representative. The Holder Representative shall at all times be entitled to rely on any directions received from the Majority Holders; provided, however, that the Holder Representative shall not be required to follow any such direction, and shall be under no obligation to take any action in its capacity as the Holder Representative, unless the Holder Representative is holding funds delivered to it under Section 3.5 of this Agreement and/or has been provided with other funds, security or indemnities which, in the sole determination of the Holder Representative, are sufficient to protect the Holder Representative against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred by the Holder Representative in responding to such direction or taking such action. The Holder Representative shall be entitled to engage such counsel, experts and other agents and consultants as it shall deem necessary in connection with exercising its powers and performing its function hereunder and (in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Holder Representative) shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the opinions and advice of such Persons. The Holder Representative shall be entitled to reimbursement from funds paid to it under Section 3.5 of this Agreement, released from the Adjustment Escrow Funds, the Indemnification Escrow Funds or the Special Indemnification Escrow Funds, as applicable, for the benefit of Holders and/or otherwise received by it in its capacity as the Holder Representative pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement, for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances (including fees and disbursements of its counsel, experts and other agents and consultants) incurred by the Holder Representative in such capacity, and shall be entitled to indemnification against any loss, liability or expenses arising out of actions taken or omitted to be taken in its capacity as the Holder Representative (except for those arising out of the Holder Representative’s bad faith or willful misconduct), including the costs and expenses of investigation and defense of claims. In the event that the Holder Allocable Expenses exceed the amount actually incurred by the Holder Representative in its capacity as such upon the final

release of the Indemnification Escrow Funds, such excess amount shall be distributed to the Escrow Agent and the Escrow Agent shall pay to each Holder an amount in cash equal to (i) the balance of such excess, multiplied by (ii) such Holder’s Escrow Percentage, less any applicable withholding.

(b)Any decision, act, consent, approval or instruction of the Holder Representative given or made pursuant to this Section 11.2 shall constitute a decision, act, consent, approval or instruction of the Holders, and the Acquiror and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon any representation of the Holder Representative with respect to any such act, decision, consent, approval or instruction of the Holders. The appointment and power of attorney made in this Section 11.2 shall to the fullest extent permitted by Law be deemed an agency coupled with an interest and all authority conferred hereby shall to the fullest extent permitted by Law be irrevocable and not be subject to termination by operation of Law, whether by the death or incapacity or liquidation or dissolution of any Holder or the occurrence of any other event or events. Any action taken by the Holder Representative on behalf of the Holders pursuant to this Agreement shall be as valid as if any such death, incapacity, liquidation, dissolution or other event had not occurred, regardless of whether or not the Holder Representative, the Surviving Corporation or the Acquiror shall have received notice of any such death, incapacity, liquidation, dissolution or other event.

12.1Survival of Representations, Warranties and Covenants. Each representation warranty, covenant and obligation contained herein and any certificate related to any such representation, warranty, covenant or obligation will survive the Closing and continue in full force and effect for fifteen (15) months from the Closing Date (such date, the “Survival Expiration Date”); provided, however, that any covenant contained in this Agreement that, by its terms, provides for performance following the Closing Date shall survive until such covenant is performed. No Indemnification Claim may be asserted pursuant to this Agreement unless (i) on or before the Survival Expiration Date, such claim is asserted by proper written notice in accordance with this Article XII, specifying, in reasonable detail, the basis of the claim and (ii) such claim is made in respect of Damages specified, in reasonable detail, and incurred prior to the Survival Expiration Date or, to the extent arising out of an Indemnification Claim asserted in writing prior to the Survival Expiration Date, such Indemnification Claim is made in respect of a reasonably estimated amount of Damages reasonably expected to arise in connection with such claim. No Indemnification Claim arising from a claim (or an expected claim) by a third-party may be asserted pursuant to this Agreement unless such third-party has actually commenced an action and, if the third-party claim is with respect to Taxes, the Indemnified Party has received a written notice of assessment or written notice of deficiency, in each case, with respect to the specific matters of such Indemnification Claim.

12.2Indemnification.

(a)Subject to Section 12.4 and clause (A) of Section 8.3(d), from and after the Effective Time, Acquiror and its Subsidiaries (collectively, the “Acquiror Indemnified Parties”) shall be entitled to indemnification (other than in respect of clause (iv) hereof) solely from the Indemnification Escrow Funds (and, solely in the case of clause (iv) hereof, solely

from the Special Indemnification Escrow Funds) for any and all Damages to the extent arising from (i) any breach of any representation or warranty the Company has made in Article IV, (ii) any breach of any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement requiring performance by the Company prior to or at the Closing or by the Holder Representative after the Closing, (iii) any Pre-Closing Taxes (except to the extent (A) amounts with respect to such Taxes were taken into account in the calculation of the Closing Date Net Working Capital or (B) arising from the Special Property Tax Matter), (iv) the Special Indemnification-Related Claims, or (v) the Special Property Tax Matter.

(b)Subject to Section 12.4, from and after the Effective Time, Acquiror shall indemnify, defend and hold the Holders harmless for any and all Damages to the extent arising from (i) any breach of any representation or warranty Acquiror or Merger Sub has made in Article V, (ii) any breach of any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement requiring performance by Acquiror or Merger Sub prior to or at the Closing or by Acquiror, Merger Sub or the Surviving Corporation after the Closing or (iii) any Transfer Taxes.

(c)The amount of indemnification to which an Indemnified Party shall be entitled under this Article XII shall be determined: (i) by the written agreement between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnitor; (ii) by a final judgment or decree of any court of competent jurisdiction; or (iii) by any other means to which the Indemnified Party and the Indemnitor shall agree. The judgment or decree of a court shall be deemed final when the time for appeal, if any, shall have expired and no appeal shall have been taken or when all appeals taken shall have been finally determined. The Indemnified Party shall have the burden of proof in establishing the amount of Damages suffered by it.

12.3Indemnification Claim Procedures.

(a)Upon receipt of any notice of an Action that may give rise to an Indemnification Claim by a Person entitled to indemnification under this Agreement (each, an “Indemnified Party”), such Indemnified Party shall promptly (i) notify or cause to be notified the Indemnitor and (ii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Indemnitor a written notice (A) describing in reasonable detail the nature of the Action, (B) including a copy of all papers served with respect to such Action, (C) including the Indemnified Party’s best estimate of the amount of Damages that may arise from such Action and (D) describing in reasonable detail the basis for the Indemnified Party’s request for indemnification under this Agreement. Failure to notify the Indemnitor in accordance with this Section 12.3(a) will not relieve the Indemnitor of any liability that it may have to the Indemnified Party, except to the extent (1) the defense of such Action is prejudiced by the Indemnified Party’s failure to give or cause to be given such notice or (2) the Indemnified Party fails to notify or cause to be notified the Indemnitor of such Indemnification Claim in accordance with this Section 12.3(a) prior to the Survival Expiration Date.

(b)An Indemnitor may elect at any time to assume and thereafter conduct the defense of any Action subject to any such Indemnification Claim with counsel of the Indemnitor’s choice and to settle or compromise any such Action, and each Indemnified Party shall cooperate in all respects with the conduct of such defense by the Indemnitor (including the making of any related claims, counterclaim or cross complaint against any Person in connection

with the Action) and/or the settlement of such Action by the Indemnitor; provided, however, that the Indemnitor shall not agree to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or compromise with respect to such Action without the Indemnified Party’s prior written approval (which must not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), unless the terms of such settlement provide for a complete release of the claims that are the subject of such Action in favor of the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnified Party gives an Indemnitor notice of an Indemnification Claim and the Indemnitor does not thereafter promptly assume such defense, then the Indemnified Party may conduct the defense of such Action; provided, however, that (A) the Indemnified Party will not agree to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or compromise with respect to such Action without the prior written consent of the Indemnitor (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and (B) the Indemnitor may thereafter assume at any time the defense of such Action. To the extent the defense of any Action subject to any Indemnification Claim is assumed by the Holder Representative as the Indemnitor, at the election of the Indemnitor, the costs and expenses of such defense of, and any payment in respect of, any Action, including any settlement thereof, shall be paid from the Indemnification Escrow Funds (other than with respect to indemnification pursuant to Section 12.2(a)(iv), which shall be paid solely from the Special Indemnification Escrow Funds), and Acquiror, the Surviving Corporation and the Holder Representative shall promptly submit joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to disburse such portion of the Indemnification Escrow Funds (or the Special Indemnification Escrow Funds, if applicable) as is reasonably requested in writing by the Holder Representative to pay such costs and expenses or other amounts; provided, however, that no amounts will be payable from the Indemnification Escrow Funds or the Special Indemnification Escrow Funds (other than, at the election of the Holder Representative, costs and expenses of the Holder Representative as Indemnitor), unless the Indemnified Party is actually entitled to indemnification hereunder. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 12.3(b) to the contrary, (x) the Holder Representative, on behalf of the Holders, solely in its capacity as Indemnitor, shall assume and thereafter conduct the defense of the Special Indemnification-Related Claims with counsel of its own choice and shall settle or compromise the Special Indemnification-Related Claims in its sole discretion (provided that the terms of such settlement or compromise shall provide for a complete release of the Special Indemnification-Related Claims in favor of the Company), and (y) any Acquiror Indemnified Party, as applicable, shall cooperate in all respects with the conduct of such defense (including the making of any related claims, counterclaim or cross complaint against any Person in connection with the Special Indemnification-Related Claims) and/or the settlement of the Special Indemnification-Related Claims by the Holder Representative.

(c)At the reasonable request of the Indemnitor, each Indemnified Party shall grant the Indemnitor and its representatives all reasonable access to the books, records, employees and properties of such Indemnified Party to the extent reasonably related to the matters to which the applicable Indemnification Claim relates. All such access shall be granted during normal business hours and shall be granted under the conditions which shall not unreasonably interfere with the business and operations of such Indemnified Party.

12.4Limitations on Indemnification Liability. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, any claims an Indemnified Party makes under this Article XII will be limited as follows:

(a)Indemnification Cap. Other than with respect to indemnification pursuant to Section 12.2(a)(iv), the aggregate amount of Damages for which the Acquiror Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article XII will, subject to the immediately following sentence, not exceed the Indemnification Escrow Amount. The aggregate amount of Damages for which the Acquiror Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 12.2(a)(v) will not exceed the lesser of (A) the Indemnification Escrow Funds and (B) an amount equal in the aggregate to $500,000. The aggregate amount of Damages for which the Acquiror Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 12.2(a)(iv) will not exceed the Special Indemnification Escrow Amount. The Indemnification Escrow Amount then remaining in escrow shall serve as the sole and exclusive source of payment of any Indemnification Claim pursuant to Section 12.2(a) (other than with respect to indemnification pursuant to Section 12.2(a)(iv)). The Special Indemnification Escrow Amount then remaining in escrow shall serve as the sole and exclusive source of payment of any Indemnification Claim pursuant to Section 12.2(a)(iv).

(b)Claims Basket. The Acquiror Indemnified Parties shall only be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 12.2(a)(i) (other than for claims for breaches of Fundamental Representations) to the extent the aggregate amount of all Damages incurred by the Acquiror Indemnified Parties for which the Acquiror Indemnified Parties are entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 12.2(a)(i) (other than for claims for breaches of Fundamental Representations) exceeds $2,300,000 (the “Basket Amount”), and once the aggregate amount of such Damages exceeds the Basket Amount, the Acquiror Indemnified Parties shall only be entitled to indemnification for such Damages to the extent such Damages exceed the Basket Amount. The Basket Amount shall not apply to any indemnification claims under Section 12.2(a)(ii), Section 12.2(a)(iii), Section 12.2(a)(iv) or Section 12.2(a)(v) or for claims for breaches of Fundamental Representations under Section 12.2(a)(i).

(c)Damages Net of Insurance Proceeds and Other Third-Party Recoveries. All Damages for which any Indemnified Party would otherwise be entitled to indemnification under this Article XII shall be reduced by the amount of insurance proceeds (but not including any possible recovery under the RWI Policy), indemnification payments and other third-party recoveries to which any Indemnified Party is entitled in respect of any Damages incurred by such Indemnified Party. In the event any Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates may be entitled to any insurance proceeds, indemnity payments or any third-party recoveries in respect of any Damages (or any of the circumstances giving rise thereto) for which such Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article XII, such Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, receive or realize such proceeds, benefits, payments or recoveries. In the event that any such insurance proceeds, indemnity payments or other third-party recoveries are obtained, received or realized by an Indemnified Party subsequent to receipt by such Indemnified Party of any indemnification payment hereunder in respect of the claims to which such insurance proceeds, indemnity payments or other third-party recoveries relate, appropriate refunds shall be made promptly by the relevant Indemnified Parties of all or the relevant portion of such indemnification payment.

(d)Assignment of Claims. If any Indemnified Party receives any indemnification payment pursuant to this Article XII, at the election of the Indemnitor, such Indemnified Party shall assign to the Indemnitor all of its claims for recovery against third

Persons as to such Damages, whether by insurance coverage, contribution claims, subrogation or otherwise.

(e)Calculation of Damages. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, for purposes of determining whether there has been a breach or an inaccuracy of any representation or warranty, and for purposes of determining the amount of Damages resulting therefrom, all qualifications or exceptions in any representation or warranty relating to or referring to the terms “material”, “materiality”, or “in all material respects” or any similar term or phrase will be disregarded, it being the understanding of the Parties that for the purposes of determining liability under this Article XII, the representations and warranties of the Parties contained in this Agreement will be read as if such terms and phrases were not included in them; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply to (i) the term “Material Permit” or when used as an adjective in any definition set forth in Section 1.1 and (ii) any representation or warranty set forth in (A) the last sentence of Section 4.7; (B) Section 4.11(a)(viii), (xiii) and (xvi); (C) the first sentence of Section 4.12(a); (D) Section 4.18(f); (E) Section 4.19(a); (F) the first sentence of Section 4.21(a); (G) Section 4.21(f); (H) the first sentence of Section 4.22; and (I) the second sentence of Section 4.23.

(f)Damages Reserved for on the Post-Closing Statement or Included in Merger Consideration. No Acquiror Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnification for any Damages (i) in respect of any liability or obligation accrued or reserved for on the Post-Closing Statement or (ii) in respect of any liability included in the calculation of the Merger Consideration.

(g)No Duplicate Claims. In the event an Acquiror Indemnified Party or the Holder Representative, as the case may be, recovers Damages in respect of an Indemnification Claim, no other Acquiror Indemnified Party or the Holder Representative, as applicable, may recover the same Damages in respect of a claim for indemnification under this Agreement.

(h)Limitations on Tax Indemnification. No Acquiror Indemnified Party shall be indemnified for Damages relating to (i) any Taxes with respect to any Post-Closing Tax Period other than Taxes arising from a breach of the representation contained in Section 4.14(i) or (ii) any Taxes attributable to any breach of any covenant hereunder by Acquiror or its Affiliates (including the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries).

12.5Mitigation of Damages. An Indemnified Party shall use its reasonable best efforts to mitigate any Damages for which it is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article XII.

12.6Indemnification Sole and Exclusive Remedy. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that from and after the Closing, except for intentional fraud, claims under this Article XII shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Acquiror Indemnified Parties with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Indemnification Escrow Funds (or the Special Indemnification Escrow Funds, as applicable) shall be the sole source of recovery of the Acquiror Indemnified Parties. The parties recognize that any further recovery for breaches of representations and warranties under this Agreement by the Acquiror Indemnified Parties shall be under the RWI Policy (subject to the terms and conditions thereof). In furtherance of the foregoing, Acquiror, Merger Sub and each of the Acquiror Indemnified Parties

hereby waives, from and after the Closing, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action it may have against any indemnifying party relating to the subject matter of this Agreement based upon predecessor or successor liability, contribution, tort, strict liability or any Law or otherwise. All representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement are contractual in nature only and subject to the sole and exclusive remedies set forth in this Article XII. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

(a)each of Acquiror and Merger Sub hereby waives any statutory and common law remedies, including remedies that may be available under Environmental Laws, with respect to matters relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including with respect to any environmental, health or safety matters);

(b)after the Closing Date, none of the Acquiror Indemnified Parties may seek the rescission of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement;

(c)the provisions of and the limited remedies provided in this Article XII were specifically bargained for between the parties hereto and were taken into account by the parties hereto in arriving at the Merger Consideration;

(d)the parties hereto have voluntarily agreed to define their rights, liabilities and obligations respecting the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby exclusively in contract pursuant to the express terms and provisions of this Agreement;

(e)the sole and exclusive remedies for any breach of the terms and provisions of this Agreement (including any representations and warranties set forth herein, made in connection herewith or as an inducement to enter into this Agreement) or any claim or cause of action otherwise arising out of or related to the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be those remedies available at law or in equity for breach of contract only (as such contractual remedies have been further limited or excluded pursuant to the express terms of this Agreement); and the parties hereto hereby agree that no party hereto shall have any remedies or cause of action (whether in contract or in tort) for any statements, communications, disclosures, failures to disclose, representations or warranties not set forth in this Agreement;

(f)the parties hereto each hereby acknowledge that this Agreement embodies the justifiable expectations of sophisticated parties derived from arm’s-length negotiations and the parties hereto specifically acknowledge that no party hereto has any special relationship with another party hereto that would justify any expectation beyond that of an ordinary buyer and an ordinary seller in an arm’s-length transaction; and

(g)for the avoidance of doubt, any adjustments made to the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 3.4 shall not be considered “remedies” for purposes of this Section 12.6 and shall not be limited by the terms of this Section 12.6.

12.7Release of Escrow.

(a)The Escrow Agreement shall specify that the Indemnification Escrow Funds (if any) shall be released to the Holders in accordance with such Holders’ relative Escrow Percentages on the first Business Day following the Survival Expiration Date; provided,

however, that, if any Indemnification Claim shall have been properly asserted by any Acquiror Indemnified Party in accordance with this Agreement on or prior to the Survival Expiration Date and remains pending on the Survival Expiration Date (any such claim, a “Pending Claim”), (i) the Indemnification Escrow Funds released to the Holders in accordance with such Holders’ relative Escrow Percentages shall be the amount of Indemnification Escrow Funds then held by the Escrow Agent, minus the aggregate amount of such Pending Claim and (ii) any funds that remain in escrow following the Survival Expiration Date in respect of any such Pending Claim shall be released to the Holders entitled to receive the Merger Consideration in accordance with such Holders’ relative Escrow Percentages promptly upon resolution or (if applicable) satisfaction of such Pending Claim. In each case in which this Section 12.7(a) provides for the release of Indemnification Escrow Funds, each of Acquiror and the Holder Representative shall promptly submit joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to distribute the Indemnification Escrow Funds in accordance with this Section 12.7(a) and the Escrow Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the Special Property Tax Matter shall be, and hereby is, as of the date hereof, a Pending Claim. Unless the Special Property Tax Matter shall have been finally resolved, settled or compromised on or prior to the Survival Expiration Date, the amount of Indemnification Escrow Funds to remain in escrow following the Survival Expiration Date in respect of such Pending Claim shall be the lesser of (A) the Indemnification Escrow Funds and (B) $500,000, in each case, minus any amounts previously paid from the Indemnification Escrow Funds in respect of such Pending Claim. Notwithstanding, anything to the contrary in this Agreement or otherwise, in the event that the Special Property Tax Matter is finally resolved, compromised or settled prior to the Closing and any amounts payable in respect thereof to the County of Tulare are paid prior to the Closing, then (x) the Indemnification Escrow Amount shall be reduced to an amount equal to $2,300,000 and (y) the Acquiror Indemnified Parties shall not be entitled to indemnification for any Damages in respect of the Special Property Tax Matter pursuant to Section 12.2(a)(iii) or Section 12.2(a)(v).

(b)The Escrow Agreement shall specify that the Special Indemnification Escrow Funds (if any) shall be released to the Holders in accordance with such Holders’ relative Escrow Percentages on the first Business Day following the later of (i) if applicable, the date a final order and judgment in the Action described in clause (A) of Schedule 1.1(c)(ii) is no longer subject to further appeal or review whether by affirmance or expiration of any possible appeal or review, writ of certiorari, by leave, lapse of time or otherwise; (ii) the deadline for eligible stockholders to demand appraisal for their shares of Common Stock under the DGCL provided that no eligible stockholders demand appraisal; (iii) if applicable, the deadline for eligible stockholders who have demanded appraisal regarding Dissenting Shares to file an appraisal petition provided that no eligible stockholders file an appraisal petition; or (iv) if applicable, the date on which a final order and judgment in any appraisal action regarding Dissenting Shares under the DGCL is no longer subject to further appeal or review whether by affirmance or expiration of any possible appeal or review, writ of certiorari, by leave, lapse of time or otherwise (such latest date, the “Special Indemnification Escrow Release Date”); provided that, in the event that the action referenced in clause (i) of this Section 12.7(b) occurs prior to the Closing in compliance with Section 6.1, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Special Indemnification Escrow Amount shall be reduced for all purposes under this Agreement by eighty percent (80%); provided, further, that, in the event that both (x) the action referenced in clause (i) of this Section 12.7(b) occurs prior to the Closing in compliance with Section 6.1 and (y) the event specified in clause (ii) of this Section 12.7(b) occurs prior to the

Closing, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Special Indemnification Escrow Amount shall be reduced for all purposes under this Agreement by one-hundred percent (100%). In each case in which this Section 12.7(b) provides for the release of Special Indemnification Escrow Funds, each of Acquiror and the Holder Representative shall promptly submit joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to distribute the Special Indemnification Escrow Funds in accordance with this Section 12.7(b) and the Escrow Agreement.

13.1Waiver. Any party to this Agreement may, at any time prior to the Closing, by action taken by its board of directors or similar managing body, or officers thereunto duly authorized, waive any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement or agree to an amendment or modification to this Agreement in the manner contemplated by Section 13.10 and by an agreement in writing executed in the same manner (but not necessarily by the same Persons) as this Agreement.

13.2Notices. All notices and other communications among the parties shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given (i) when delivered in person, (ii) when delivered after posting in the United States mail having been sent registered or certified mail return receipt requested, postage prepaid, (iii) when delivered by FedEx or other nationally recognized overnight delivery service or (iv) when delivered by facsimile or email (in each case in this clause (iv), solely if delivery is confirmed), addressed as follows:

13.10Amendments. This Agreement may be amended or modified in whole or in part, only with the prior written consent of Acquiror, Merger Sub and the Company.

13.11Publicity. Except to the extent otherwise required by applicable Law or the rules of any applicable stock exchange, neither of the Parties will, and each Party will cause its Affiliates and its and their respective Representatives not to, issue any press release or make any other public announcements concerning the transactions contemplated hereby or the contents of this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Party.

13.13Jurisdiction; WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY. Any Action based upon, arising out of or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby may be brought in

the Delaware Chancery Court (or, if the Delaware Chancery Court shall be unavailable, any other court of the State of Delaware or, in the case of claims to which the federal courts have exclusive subject matter jurisdiction, any federal court of the United States of America sitting in the State of Delaware), and each of the parties irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of each such court in any such Action, waives any objection it may now or hereafter have to personal jurisdiction, venue or to convenience of forum, agrees that all claims in respect of the Action shall be heard and determined only in any such court, and agrees not to bring any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in any other court. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to affect the right of any party to serve process in any manner permitted by Law or to commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against any other party in any other jurisdiction, in each case, to enforce judgments obtained in any Action, suit or proceeding brought pursuant to this Section 13.13. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT OR THE ACTIONS OF THE PARTIES IN THE NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT HEREOF.

13.14Enforcement. The parties agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that the parties do not perform their obligations under the provisions of this Agreement (including failing to take such actions as are required of them hereunder to consummate this Agreement) in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. The parties acknowledge and agree that (a) the parties shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance, or other equitable relief, to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, without proof of damages, prior to the valid termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 10.1, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled under this Agreement, and (b) the right of specific performance is an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and without that right, none of the Company, Acquiror and Merger Sub would have entered into this Agreement. Each party agrees that it will not oppose the granting of specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that the other parties have an adequate remedy at Law or that an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at Law or equity. The parties acknowledge and agree that any party seeking an injunction to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in accordance with this Section 13.14 shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such injunction. For the avoidance of doubt, while the Company may pursue both a grant of specific performance in accordance with this Section 13.14 and concurrently pursue the payment of any damages under Section 10.2, under no circumstances shall the Company be permitted or entitled to receive both (A) a grant of specific performance that results in a Closing (and the payment of any fees, costs and expenses (including legal fees) incurred by or on behalf of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries or Affiliates in connection with the Company’s pursuance of such grant of specific performance, which Acquiror or Merger Sub shall pay or cause to be paid to the Company (such payment shall be deemed to have been made prior to 11:59 p.m. California time on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date) if the

Company is actually granted specific performance in accordance with this Section 13.14) and (B) damages under Section 10.2.

13.15Non-Recourse. Without limiting the rights of the Company under and to the extent provided under Section 13.14, this Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of, or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby may only be brought against, the entities that are expressly named as parties hereto and then only with respect to the specific obligations set forth herein with respect to such party. Without limiting the rights of the Company under and to the extent provided under Section 13.14, except to the extent a named party to this Agreement (and then only to the extent of the specific obligations undertaken by such named party in this Agreement), (i) no past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney, advisor or representative or Affiliate of any named party to this Agreement and (ii) no past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney, advisor or representative or Affiliate of any of the foregoing shall have any liability (whether in contract, tort, equity or otherwise) for any one or more of the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or other obligations or liabilities of any one or more of the Company, Acquiror or Merger Sub under this Agreement (whether for indemnification or otherwise) of or for any claim based on, arising out of, or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

13.16Acknowledgement and Waiver.

(a)It is acknowledged by each of the parties hereto that each of the Company and the Holder Representative has retained Latham & Watkins LLP (“L&W”) to act as their counsel in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and that L&W has not acted as counsel for any other Person in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby for conflict of interest or any other purposes. Acquiror, Merger Sub and the Company agree that any attorney-client privilege and the expectation of client confidence attaching as a result of L&W’s representation of the Company and the Holder Representative related to the preparation for, and negotiation and consummation of, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including all communications among L&W, the Company the Holders, the Holder Representative and/or their respective Affiliates related to the preparation for, and negotiation and consummation of, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, shall survive the Closing and shall remain in effect. Furthermore, effective as of the Closing, (i) all communications (and materials relating thereto) between the Company and the Company Subsidiaries and L&W related to the preparation for, and negotiation and consummation of, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are hereby assigned and transferred to the Holder Representative, (ii) the Company and the Company Subsidiaries hereby release all of their respective rights and interests to and in such communications and related materials and (iii) the Company and the Company Subsidiaries hereby release any right to assert or waive any privilege related to the communications referenced in this Section 13.16 and acknowledge and agree that all such rights shall reside with the Holder Representative.

(b)Each of Acquiror, Merger Sub, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates (including, from and after the Closing, the Company and the Company Subsidiaries), agrees that, notwithstanding any current, prior or future representation of the Company by L&W, L&W shall

be allowed to represent any of the Holders, the Holder Representative or any of their respective Affiliates in any matters and disputes adverse to Acquiror, Merger Sub or the Company that either is existing on the date hereof or arises in the future and relates to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby; and each of Acquiror and Merger Sub, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates (including, from and after the Closing, the Company and the Company Subsidiaries), hereby waives any conflicts or claim of privilege that may arise in connection with such representation. Further, each of Acquiror and Merger Sub, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates (including, from and after the Closing, the Company and the Company Subsidiaries), agrees that, in the event that a dispute arises after Closing between Acquiror, Merger Sub or the Company, on the one hand, and any of the Holders (or the Holder Representative on behalf of the Holders) or any of their respective Affiliates, on the other, L&W may represent such Holders or the Holder Representative or any of their respective Affiliates in such dispute even though the interests of such Holders, the Holder Representative or any of their respective Affiliate may be directly adverse to Acquiror, Merger Sub or the Company and even though L&W may have represented the Company in a matter substantially related to such dispute.

(c)Each of Acquiror and Merger Sub, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates (including, from and after the Closing, the Company and the Company Subsidiaries), acknowledges that any advice given to or communication with any Holder, the Holder Representative or any of their respective Affiliates (other than the Company) shall not be subject to any joint privilege and shall be owned solely by such Holder, the Holder Representative and any Affiliate of each such party. Each of Acquiror, Merger Sub and the Company hereby acknowledges that it has had the opportunity to discuss and obtain adequate information concerning the significance and material risks of, and reasonable available alternatives to, the waivers, permissions and other provisions of this Agreement, including the opportunity to consult with counsel other than L&W.

13.17Parent Guarantee. Parent Guarantor hereby (i) agrees to take any and all actions necessary to cause Acquiror and Merger Sub to perform all of their respective obligations under this Agreement in accordance with their respective terms (including with respect to the consummation of the Merger, the payment of the Merger Consideration and, if applicable, any amounts payable pursuant to Section 10.2) (collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”) and (ii) absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, the full and complete performance by Acquiror and Merger Sub of the Guaranteed Obligations, and Parent Guarantor shall be liable for any breach by Acquiror or Merger Sub of any of the Guaranteed Obligations. This is a guarantee of payment (not of collection) and performance. The Company shall not be obligated to file any claim relating to the Guaranteed Obligations in the event that Acquiror or Merger Sub becomes subject to bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceedings, and the failure of the Company to so file shall not affect Parent Guarantor’s obligations hereunder. In the event that any payment to the Company in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned for any reason whatsoever (other than in circumstances where Parent Guarantor is not liable to make such payment), Parent Guarantor shall remain liable hereunder with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations as if such payment had not been rescinded or returned. Parent Guarantor hereby waives promptness, diligence, presentment, demand of performance, demand of payment, filing of any claim, any right to require any proceeding first against Acquiror or Merger Sub, protest, notice of any kind and all demands whatsoever and all suretyship defenses generally in

connection with the performance of its covenants, agreements and obligations set forth in this Section 13.17. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent Acquiror or Merger Sub is relieved of all or any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations by satisfaction thereof on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement or pursuant to any other agreement with the Company, Parent Guarantor shall be similarly relieved of its corresponding obligations under this Section 13.17. Parent Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and that the waivers set forth in this Section 13.17 are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF the parties have hereunto caused this Agreement to be duly executed as of the date hereof.
