The Closing Statement (and each component thereof) shall be calculated in accordance with the Accounting Principles and in a form consistent with, and subject to the adjustments set forth in, the sample Closing Statement attached hereto as Annex A. From and after the delivery of the Closing Statement until such time as the Closing Statement becomes final, binding and conclusive upon the parties, Buyer shall (i) make available to the Seller Representative and its accountants and advisors the documents and data used in the preparation of, or reasonably related to, the Closing Statement and each of the components thereof and (ii) give the Seller Representative access, during normal business hours and upon reasonable advance notice, to the personnel, accountants, properties, books and records of the Transferred Companies for the purpose of determining whether the Closing Statement contains any mathematical errors or was prepared in a manner inconsistent with the Accounting Principles.

(c)    Dispute Notice. The Closing Statement shall become final, binding and conclusive upon the parties on the thirtieth (30^th) day following receipt by the Seller Representative of the Closing Statement, unless prior to such thirtieth (30^th) day the Seller Representative delivers to Buyer a written notice (a “Dispute Notice”) stating that the Seller Representative believes that the Closing Statement contains mathematical errors or was not prepared in accordance with the Accounting Principles and specifying in reasonable detail each item that the Seller Representative disputes (a “Disputed Item”), the amount in dispute for each such Disputed Item and the reasons supporting the Seller Representative’s positions. The Seller Representative may not challenge the Closing Statement on any other basis.

(d)    Resolution Period. If the Seller Representative timely delivers a Dispute Notice, then Buyer and the Seller Representative shall seek in good faith to resolve the Disputed Items during the 15-day period beginning on the date Buyer receives the Dispute Notice (the “Resolution Period”). If Buyer and the Seller Representative reach agreement with respect to any Disputed Items, Buyer shall revise the Closing Statement to reflect such agreement.

(e)    Independent Accountant. If Buyer and the Seller Representative are unable to resolve all of the Disputed Items during the Resolution Period, then Buyer and the Seller

Representative shall jointly engage and submit the unresolved Disputed Items (the “Unresolved Items”) to the Independent Accountant; provided that if Buyer and the Seller Representative do not appoint an Independent Accountant within ten (10) days after the end of the Resolution Period, they shall request the American Arbitration Association to appoint as the Independent Accountant a nationally recognized independent registered public accounting firm that has not had a material relationship with the Transferred Companies, the Seller Representative, any Seller, Buyer or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, within the preceding two years, and such appointment shall be final, binding and conclusive on Buyer, Sellers and the Seller Representative. Buyer and the Seller Representative shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Independent Accountant to issue its written determination regarding the Unresolved Items within thirty (30) days after the Unresolved Items are submitted for review, and Buyer, Sellers and the Seller Representative shall cooperate with the Independent Accountant during its engagement. Buyer and the Seller Representative shall promptly (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days) after the Independent Accountant’s engagement, each submit to the Independent Accountant their respective computations of the Unresolved Items and information, arguments and support for their respective positions, and shall concurrently deliver a copy of such materials to the other party. Each of Buyer and the Seller Representative shall then be given an opportunity to supplement the information, arguments and support included in its initial submission with one additional submission to respond to any arguments or positions taken by the other party in such other party’s initial submission, which supplemental information shall be submitted to the Independent Accountant (with a copy thereof to the other party) within five (5) Business Days after the first date on which both parties have submitted their respective initial submissions to the Independent Accountant. The Independent Accountant shall thereafter be permitted to request additional or clarifying information from the parties, and each of the parties shall cooperate with such requests of the Independent Accountant; provided that communication with the Independent Accountant by any party hereto or any of their respective representatives with respect to or in any way related to the duties contemplated to be performed by the Independent Accountant hereby may not occur ex parte, and each of the Seller Representative and Buyer or their respective designees must participate in any such communication, including by receiving copies of any materials submitted to the Independent Accountant in connection herewith. The Independent Accountant shall determine, based solely on the materials so presented by the parties and upon information received in response to such requests for additional or clarifying information and not by independent review, only those Unresolved Items still in dispute and shall render a written report to Buyer and the Seller Representative in which the Independent Accountant sets forth its determination regarding what adjustments, if any, should be made to the amounts and computations set forth in the Closing Statement solely as to the Unresolved Items and shall determine, on that basis, the appropriate amount of the 2014 Net Working Capital, 2014 Excess Cash, the Additional Consideration, Excess Indebtedness, the Leakage Amount and the Indebtedness/Leakage True-Up Amount,. In resolving any Unresolved Item, the Independent Accountant (x) shall be bound to the principles of this Section 1.4 and the terms of this Agreement, (y) shall limit its review to matters specifically set forth in the Dispute Notice and (z) shall not assign a value to any item higher than the highest value for such item claimed by either party or less than the lowest value for such item claimed by either party. The report of the Independent Accountant shall be final, binding and conclusive on Buyer, Sellers and the Seller Representative absent manifest error, and Buyer shall revise the Closing Statement to reflect the determination of

the Independent Accountant as set forth in such report promptly upon receipt thereof. The fees, expenses and costs of the Independent Accountant shall be borne equally by Buyer and Sellers.

(f)    Adjustment Amounts.

(i)    If a positive Additional Consideration is finally determined to exist pursuant to this Section 1.4, then Buyer shall pay such Additional Consideration to Sellers by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated in writing by the Seller Representative on behalf of all Sellers as follows: (A) one-third (1/3) of such amount shall be so payable on the first anniversary of the Closing Date and (B) two-thirds (2/3) of such amount shall be so payable on the second anniversary of the Closing Date.

(ii)    If a negative Additional Consideration is finally determined to exist pursuant to this Section 1.4, then Sellers shall promptly, and in any event within ten (10) Business Days after such final determination, pay or cause to be paid their respective Allocated Portion of such Additional Consideration by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated within two (2) Business Days following such final determination to the Seller Representative in writing by Buyer.

(iii)    If a positive Indebtedness/Leakage True-Up Amount (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall be payable to Buyer) and a positive Additional Consideration (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall be payable to Sellers) are finally determined to exist pursuant to this Section 1.4, then (x) if the Indebtedness/Leakage True-Up Amount is less than or equal to the Additional Consideration, the Indebtedness/Leakage True-Up Amount shall reduce the aggregate amount of Additional Consideration to be paid to Sellers under Section 1.4(f)(i), and (y) if the Indebtedness/Leakage True-Up Amount is greater than the Additional Consideration, Sellers shall promptly, and in any event within ten (10) Business Days after such final determination, pay or cause to be paid their respective Allocated Portion of the difference between the Indebtedness/Leakage True-Up Amount and the Additional Consideration by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated within two (2) Business Days following such final determination to the Seller Representative in writing by Buyer and the Additional Consideration shall be reduced to zero.

(iv)    If both a positive Indebtedness/Leakage True-Up Amount and a negative Additional Consideration are finally determined to exist pursuant to this Section 1.4, then Sellers shall promptly, and in any event within ten (10) Business Days after such final determination, pay or cause to be paid their respective Allocated Portion of such Indebtedness/Leakage True-Up Amount by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated within two (2) Business Days following such final determination to the Seller Representative in writing by Buyer.

(v)    If a negative Indebtedness/Leakage True-Up Amount is finally determined to exist pursuant to this Section 1.4, then Buyer shall promptly, and in any event within ten (10) Business Days after such final determination, pay such Indebtedness/Leakage

True-Up Amount by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated within two (2) Business Days following such final determination to Buyer in writing by the Seller Representative.

(g)    Indemnification Not Affected. No Person’s rights to indemnification under this Agreement shall be deemed to limit, supersede or otherwise affect, or be limited, superseded or otherwise affected by, the terms of this Section 1.4.

Section 1.5    Withholding. Each party shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts payable pursuant to or as contemplated by this Agreement such amounts as such party reasonably determines are required to be deducted or withheld therefrom or in connection therewith under the Code or Treasury Regulations. To the extent such amounts are so deducted or withheld, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as having been paid to the Person to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid. Buyer and Sellers shall cooperate in the preparation and filing of any forms or other documentation claiming exemption or relief from any requirement to withhold.

Section 1.6    Seller Representative. (a) Each Seller hereby constitutes and appoints Tiptree, in its capacity as the Seller Representative, to act as its representative for all purposes under the Transaction Agreements, and the Seller Representative hereby accepts such appointment. Each Seller hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints, with full power of substitution, the Seller Representative as its true and lawful attorney‑in‑fact, with full power and authority in such Seller’s name, to take all actions required or permitted to be taken hereunder, and otherwise to act on behalf of, and to bind, each Seller for all purposes under the Transaction Agreements, including (i) approving or contesting any amounts in the Closing Statement and entering into any settlement or agreement to resolve any Disputed Item, (ii) administering any indemnification matter on behalf of Sellers, including agreeing to the settlement of any indemnification matter and otherwise handling and negotiating indemnification matters, (iii) executing and delivering such waivers and consents in connection with this Agreement and each other Transaction Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby as the Seller Representative, in its sole discretion, may deem necessary or desirable, (iv) refraining from enforcing any right of any Seller and/or the Seller Representative arising out of or under or in any manner relating to this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement; provided that no such failure to act on the part of the Seller Representative, except as otherwise expressly provided in the applicable Transaction Agreement, shall be deemed a waiver of any such right or interest by the Seller Representative or by such Seller unless such waiver is in writing signed by the waiving party or by the Seller Representative and (v) making, executing, acknowledging and delivering all such other agreements, guarantees, orders, receipts, endorsements, notices, requests, instructions, certificates, stock powers, letters and other writings, and, in general, to do any and all things and to take any and all action that the Representative, in its sole and absolute discretion, may consider necessary or proper or convenient in connection with or to carry out the transactions contemplated by this

Without limiting the foregoing, (i) each Seller hereby expressly consents to the amendment of the Shareholders Agreement by and among PFG and its shareholders party thereto, dated as of December 16, 2010 (the “Shareholders Agreement”), to the extent reasonably required to facilitate the transactions contemplated hereby (provided that the foregoing consent to amend such Shareholders Agreement shall not apply to any amendment that would have a disproportionate material adverse effect upon any individual Seller as compared to the effect thereof on the other Sellers hereunder), and (ii) each Seller hereby agrees to cause the Articles of Incorporation of the Company, dated August 5, 1999 and as amended on July 12, 2012, to be amended prior to the Closing to delete the last sentence of the definition of “Sale Transaction” provided for in Article VI, Section F therein. Each Seller agrees to deliver, as and when requested by the Seller Representative, certificates evidencing such Seller’s Purchased Shares duly endorsed or accompanied by written instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to the Seller Representative, duly executed by such Seller, free and clear of any liens or other adverse claims or restrictions (other than the RGA Liens), and to appoint the Seller Representative as the custodian of such Purchased Shares for purposes of the Closing, with full power to deliver such Purchased Shares to the Buyer at Closing, whether or not such Purchased Shares are certificated or held of record in book entry form. Each Seller agrees to cooperate fully in, take all necessary and desirable actions approved by the Seller Representative in connection with, and not to take any action prejudicial or inconsistent with, the transactions contemplated hereby.

(b)    In furtherance of this Section 1.6, each of the Sellers (i) hereby irrevocably grants to, and appoints the Seller Representative and its designees as its irrevocable proxy and attorney-in-fact (with full power of substitution and resubstitution) to vote the Shares, provide written consents, express consent or dissent or otherwise utilize voting power in accordance with the Seller Representative’s rights and obligations under this Section 1.6 during the term hereof, (ii) hereby affirms that the irrevocable proxy set forth in this Section 1.6(b) is given in connection with the execution of this Agreement, and that such irrevocable proxy is given to secure the performance of the duties of such Seller under this Agreement and (iii) hereby (A) affirms that such irrevocable proxy is coupled with an interest and (B) affirms that such irrevocable proxy is executed and intended to be irrevocable in accordance with the provisions of Section 1759 of the General Association Act of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Each Seller hereby represents that all proxies, powers of attorney, instructions or other requests given by such Seller prior to the execution of this Agreement in respect of the voting of the Shares held by such Seller, if any, are not irrevocable and each Seller hereby revokes (or causes to be revoked) any and all previous proxies, powers of attorney, instructions or other requests with respect to the Shares. The vote, if any, of the proxy holder pursuant to the proxy set forth in this Section 1.6 shall control the outcome, and be determinative, of any conflict between the vote by the proxy holder of any Seller’s Shares and a vote by such Seller. Each Seller shall provide evidence

to the Seller Representative in connection with the actions of such Seller under or relating to this Section 1.6(b) as the Seller Representative shall reasonably request.

(c)    Each Seller acknowledges that this Section 1.6 is intended to promote the efficient negotiation and handling of matters arising under or in connection with the Transaction Agreements. Buyer shall be entitled to rely upon, without independent investigation, any act, notice, instruction or communication from the Seller Representative and shall not be liable in any manner whatsoever for any action taken or not taken in reliance upon the actions taken or not taken or communications or writings given or executed by the Seller Representative. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Seller hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints, with full power of substitution, the Seller Representative as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority in such Seller’s name, place and stead, to execute, certify, acknowledge, deliver, file and record all agreements, certificates, instruments and other documents and any amendment thereto, and to take any other action that the Seller Representative deems necessary or appropriate in connection with Sellers’ or the Seller Representative’s obligations under the Transaction Agreements and, at the Seller Representative’s request, each Seller shall evidence such power by execution of a separate certificate, affidavit, power of attorney or other instrument in such form and substance as may be reasonably requested by the Seller Representative. Each Seller’s appointment of the Seller Representative as its attorney-in-fact shall be deemed to be a power coupled with an interest and shall survive the incompetency, bankruptcy or dissolution of Sellers giving such power. In the event of any conflict between this Section 1.6 and the Shareholders Agreement, the provisions of this Section 1.6 shall prevail. The following arrangements between Sellers and the Seller Representative are made in consideration of the Seller Representative’s acceptance of its appointment as the Seller Representative.

(d)    In the event that the Seller Representative becomes unable to perform its responsibilities hereunder or resigns from such position, Sellers holding a majority of the Preferred Stock immediately prior to the Closing shall select another representative to fill such vacancy and such substituted representative shall be deemed to be the Seller Representative for all purposes under the Transaction Agreements.

(e)    All actions, decisions and instructions of the Seller Representative in accordance with the power and authority granted to it under the terms of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding upon all Sellers and shall be deemed authorized, approved, ratified and confirmed by Sellers, having the same force and effect as if performed pursuant to the direct authorization of such Sellers, and no Seller shall have any cause of action against the Seller Representative for any action taken, decision made or instruction given by the Seller Representative. The Seller Representative hereby agrees that any exercise of the powers, authorities or rights granted to it by Sellers under the terms of this Agreement shall

be consistent with and in furtherance of the agreements contained in this Agreement, including the agreements of the Company Sellers set forth in Section 1.10.

(f)    Sellers agree, severally and not jointly, in accordance with their respective Allocated Portion of the Purchase Price, to indemnify the Seller Representative for, and to hold the Seller Representative harmless against, any Losses incurred, arising out of or in connection with the Seller Representative’s carrying out its duties hereunder or under any other Transaction Agreement, including costs and expenses of successfully defending the Seller Representative against any claim of liability with respect thereto; provided that Seller Representative shall not be entitled to indemnification hereunder from any Seller to the extent such Losses are the result of the Seller Representative’s willful breach (as defined in Section 8.2), fraudulent acts or omissions. The Seller Representative may consult with counsel of its own choice and will have full and complete authorization and protection for any action taken and suffered by it in good faith and in accordance with the opinion of such counsel. The Seller Representative may deliver to the Sellers from time to time a statement of costs, expenses and other Losses of the Seller Representative subject to indemnification by the Sellers hereunder, divided among the Sellers in accordance with their Allocated Portions and, upon receipt thereof, each Seller shall promptly (and in any event within five (5) Business Days of receipt thereof) remit its allocated amount to the Seller Representative in the manner indicated in such statement; provided that in no event shall any Seller’s aggregate indemnification obligation under this Section 1.6(f) exceed the aggregate proceeds that such Seller would have received had the transactions contemplated hereby been consummated on the terms and conditions set forth herein. In addition, the Seller Representative may, at its sole election, offset from any amounts received hereunder for distribution to the Sellers the amount of any Losses for which the Seller Representative is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 1.6(f) and use such amounts to satisfy all or any portion of such indemnification obligations of the Sellers. The indemnity obligations of this Section 1.6(f) shall survive the resignation, replacement or removal of the Seller Representative or the termination of this Agreement.

(g)    The provisions of this Section 1.6 shall be binding upon the executors, heirs, legal representatives, personal representatives, successor trustees, and successors of each Seller, and any references in this Agreement to a Seller shall mean and include the successors to such Seller’s rights hereunder, whether pursuant to testamentary disposition, the laws of descent and distribution or otherwise.

(h)    The Seller Representative, in its capacity as such, hereby represents and warrants to Buyer, as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date, as follows:

(i)    Organizational Status. The Seller Representative is a limited liability company duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the

Laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation or organization that has all requisite limited liability company power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted.

The execution and delivery by the Seller Representative of each of the Transaction Agreements to which it is or will be a party and the consummation by the Seller Representative of the transactions contemplated by such Transaction Agreements have been duly authorized by all requisite limited liability company action on the part of the Seller Representative. Each of the Transaction Agreements to which the Seller Representative is or will be a party has been, or upon execution and delivery thereof will be, duly executed and delivered by the Seller Representative. Assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the other parties thereto, each of the Transaction Agreements to which each the Seller Representative is or will be a party constitutes, or upon execution and delivery thereof, will constitute, the legal, valid and binding obligation of each the Seller Representative, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, subject to the Enforceability Exceptions.

(iii)    Non-Contravention; Other Third Party Consents. The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Agreements by the Seller Representative and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby by such Person do not and will not (a) conflict with or result in any violation or breach of any provision of the Organizational Documents of the Seller Representative or (b) conflict with or result in a violation or breach of any provision of any applicable Law.

After its receipt of any amounts from Buyer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and subject to (i) the right of set off of the Seller Representative set forth in Section 1.6(f) and (ii) the payment, or reservation of funds in an amount sufficient to pay, out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred on behalf of the Sellers in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby as determined by the Seller Representative in good faith, the Seller Representative shall promptly pay to Tiptree, each Company Seller and each IRA, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account specified by Tiptree, such Company Seller or such IRA, the portion of such amount allocated to Tiptree, such Company Seller or such IRA, as applicable, as determined in accordance with Annex B (with respect to any amount payable to Tiptree, any Company Seller or an IRA, the “Allocated Portion” of Tiptree, such Company Seller or such IRA, as the case may be).

Each such Warrant shall be exercised on a “net exercise” basis, with the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise reduced by that number of shares of Common Stock having a Fair Market Value (as defined in the applicable Warrant) equal to the aggregate Warrant Price (as defined in the applicable Warrant) for the shares of Common Stock being purchased. Each Seller acknowledges and agrees that each share of Common Stock issued pursuant to the exercise of the Warrants held by such Warrant Holder will be a Share for all purposes of this Agreement, and each Warrant Holder and each applicable IRA Seller shall direct the Company to issue such Shares into the custody of the Seller Representative as if the Seller Representative had requested such delivery pursuant to Section 1.6 hereof.

Section 5.13    Termination of Affiliate Transactions; Intercompany Balances. Except as set forth on Section 5.13 of the Seller Disclosure Letter, Sellers shall, and shall cause their Affiliates to, take such actions as may be necessary to terminate, prior to the Closing, all Affiliate Transactions, and Sellers shall ensure that none of the Transferred Companies that are parties thereto shall incur any liability in connection with such termination. Except as set forth in Section 5.13 of the Seller Disclosure Letter, Sellers shall cause all receivables and payables between any Transferred Company, on the one hand, and any Seller or any Affiliate of any Seller (other than the Transferred Companies), on the other hand, to be settled or extinguished prior to the Closing.

Section 5.14    Non-Compete; Non-Solicitation.

(g)    Non-compete. For a period of two (2) years after the Closing Date, Tiptree shall not, and shall not permit any of its controlled Affiliates (whether now existing or existing subsequent to the date of this Agreement) to, directly or indirectly, conduct, operate, control, manage, participate, own, invest in or otherwise engage in, any business engaged in the sale or administration of corporate owned life insurance products, bank owned life insurance products or similar insurance products, as conducted as of the date of this Agreement or as of the Closing Date, in any geographical jurisdiction in which the Business operates as of the date of this Agreement or as of the Closing Date (a “Competing Business”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 5.14(a) shall prohibit (x) Tiptree or its Affiliates from owning or investing in not more than 5% of the outstanding capital stock of any publicly traded company, so long as Tiptree or the applicable Affiliate does not have any representative, designee or nominee on the board of directors (or equivalent body) of such company and does not actively participate in the business of such company or (y) Tiptree or its Affiliates from (i) selling any of its assets or businesses to a Person engaged in lines of business that compete with the Competing Business; (ii) managing or controlling investment funds that make investments in Persons engaging in a Competing Business, so long as such investments are in the ordinary course of business and not for the account of

any such Person; or (iii) providing investment management and similar services to any Person engaging in a Competing Business.

(h)    Non-Solicitation of Employees. For a period of two (2) years after the Closing Date, Tiptree shall not, and shall not permit any of its controlled Affiliates (whether now existing or existing subsequent to the date of this Agreement) to, directly or indirectly, for its own benefit or the benefit of any other Person, solicit or attempt to solicit, or induce or attempt to induce, or employ or hire (as an employee or independent contractor), any current Employee of the Transferred Companies to leave his or her employment with Buyer, the Transferred Companies or their respective Affiliates or successors in interest. The restrictions in this Section 5.14(b) shall cease to apply to any Employee six months after the date of termination of his or her employment with Buyer, the Transferred Companies or their respective Affiliates or successors in interest, provided that such Employee has not terminated his or her employment at the encouragement of Tiptree or any of its Affiliates. Nothing in this Section 5.14(b) shall restrict or preclude Tiptree or any of its Affiliates from making generalized searches for employees by the use of advertisements in the media or by engaging search firms that are not instructed to solicit any of the current Employees.

(i)    The parties agree that the agreements contained in this Section 5.14 are reasonable and necessary to protect and preserve Buyer’s legitimate business interests and the value of the Business, the Transferred Companies and the Shares. Tiptree further acknowledges and agrees that Buyer’s agreements contained in this Agreement, including its agreements to acquire the Shares indirectly owned by Tiptree, are being entered into by Buyer in exchange for and reliance upon the agreements of Tiptree contained in this Section 5.14. Tiptree acknowledges and agrees that the remedy of indemnity payments pursuant to Article X and the other remedies at law for any breach of the requirements of this Section 5.14 would be inadequate, and agrees and consents that without intending to limit any additional remedies that may be available, temporary and permanent injunctive and other equitable relief may be granted without proof of actual damage or inadequacy of legal remedy, in any proceeding which may be brought to enforce any of the provisions of this Section 5.14.

(j)    If, at the time of enforcement of the agreements contained in this Section 5.14, a court shall hold that the duration or scope stated herein are unreasonable under circumstances then existing, the parties agree that the maximum duration and scope reasonable under such circumstances shall be substituted for the stated duration and scope and that the court shall be allowed and directed to revise the restrictions contained herein to cover the maximum scope and duration permitted by applicable Law.

Section 6.1    Taxes; Tax Returns.

(k)    Sellers shall pay, reimburse, indemnify and hold harmless the Buyer Indemnitees for, from and against any and all Taxes and other Losses in respect of Taxes that (i) are imposed on or with respect to the Transferred Companies for any Pre-Closing Tax Period, and, without duplication, any interest, penalty or additions to Tax accruing after the Closing Date on Taxes described in this clause (i), (ii) arise under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-6 or any similar provision of state, local or foreign Law by virtue of the Transferred Companies having been a member of a consolidated, combined, affiliated, unitary or other similar tax group prior to the Closing, (iii) are imposed by reason of the Transferred Companies having liability for Taxes of another Person arising under principles of transferee or successor liability or by contract as a result of transactions taking place prior to the Closing, and (iv) resulting from an inclusion under Section 951 of the Code by any Transferred Company at the end of the taxable year of any Transferred Subsidiary that is a controlled foreign corporation (as defined under Section 957 of the Code) that includes the Closing Date to the extent such inclusion results from any transactions or activities occurring between the beginning of the taxable year of such controlled foreign corporation that includes the Closing Date and through the Closing, in each of the above cases, to the extent such Taxes exceed the accrual in respect thereof shown on the Closing Statement as finally determined; provided, that, Sellers shall not be liable or otherwise be required to pay, reimburse, indemnify or hold harmless Buyer Indemnitees for, from and against any Taxes (or any other Losses in respect of Taxes) with respect to any (x) transaction of Buyer or any of its Affiliates not in the ordinary course of business that occurs on the Closing Date but after the Closing, (y), filing of any amended Tax Return or change in any Tax election or accounting method with respect to the Transferred Companies relating to any Pre-Closing Tax Period after the Closing Date by Buyer, any of its Affiliates, or any transferee of Buyer or its Affiliates or (z) transactions pursuant to the Buyer Restructuring. The amount of any payments required to be made pursuant to this Section 6.1 shall be computed (i) without regard to any net operating loss, net capital loss or other Tax deduction, credit or benefit that is attributable to, arises from or relates to any Post-Closing Tax Period and (ii) assuming that any income or gain attributable to the Buyer Restructuring is allocated to a Post Closing Tax Period (including pursuant to Section 6.1(c)). To the extent permitted by Law, Buyer shall elect to carry forward any net operating loss, net capital loss or other Tax assets generated in a Post-Closing Tax Period. For the avoidance of doubt, the limitations described in Sections 9.4(a) and (b) shall not apply to this Section 6.1(a).

(l)    The Seller Representative shall be responsible for (i) preparing and filing (or causing to be prepared and filed) all Tax Returns with respect to the Transferred Companies that are due prior to the Closing Date and (ii) causing the Transferred Companies to pay all Taxes of or with respect to the Transferred Companies reflected on such Tax Returns that become due and payable prior to the end of the day on the Closing Date, in each case, within the time and in the manner prescribed by Law. All such Tax Returns shall

be prepared and filed in accordance with past practices and the requirements of this Agreement, except as required by applicable Law.

(m)    Buyer shall be responsible for (i) preparing and filing (or causing to be prepared and filed) all Tax Returns with respect to the Transferred Companies for Pre-Closing Periods that are due after the Closing Date and all Straddle Period Tax Returns and (ii) causing all Taxes with respect to such Tax Returns to be paid, in each case, within the time and in the manner prescribed by Law. All such Tax Returns shall be prepared and filed in accordance with past practices and the requirements of this Agreement, to the extent permitted by applicable Law. Sellers will reimburse Buyer for Taxes reflected on such Tax Returns within ten (10) days after such Tax Returns are filed to the extent that such Taxes are indemnifiable by Sellers under Section 6.1(a). The preparation and filing of any Tax Return that does not relate to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or a Straddle Period shall be exclusively within the control of Buyer.

(n)    Each of the Seller Representative, on one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make any Tax Returns and work papers in respect of Pre-Closing Tax Periods and Straddle Periods for which such party is responsible for preparing available for review by the other party sufficiently in advance of the due date for filing such Tax Returns (after taking into account available extensions), but in all events at least thirty (30) days prior to the date such Tax Return is required to be filed, to provide such other party with a meaningful opportunity to analyze, comment on and dispute such Tax Returns and for such Tax Returns to be modified, as appropriate, before filing. With respect to any Tax Returns for Pre-Closing Tax Periods prepared by Buyer, Buyer shall reflect any reasonable comments made by Sellers. In the event of any disagreement between Buyer and Seller Representative, such disagreement shall be resolved by the Independent Accountant, and any such determination by the Independent Accountant shall be final unless otherwise not consistent with a determination (as defined in Section 1313(a) of the Code). The fees and expenses incurred pursuant to this Article VI of the Independent Accountant shall be borne equally by Buyer, on the one hand, and Sellers, on the other hand.

(o)    For purposes of this Section 6.1, any liability for Taxes attributable to a Taxable Period that begins before and ends after the Closing Date (a “Straddle Period”) shall be apportioned between the portion of such period ending on the Closing Date and the portion beginning on the day after the Closing Date (i) in the case of real and personal property Taxes, by apportioning such Taxes on a per diem basis, (ii) in the case of Taxes based upon an amount of premiums, the amount of Tax imposed based upon the amount of premiums written or deposits made as of and including the Closing, and (iii) in the case of all other Taxes, on the basis of a closing of the books as of the end of day on the Closing Date.

(p)    After the Closing, Buyer and Sellers shall not, and shall not permit any of their Affiliates to, amend any Tax Returns or change any Tax elections or accounting methods with respect to the Transferred Companies relating to any Pre-Closing Tax Period to the extent such amendment or change could reasonably be expected to have a material cost to the other party, including the Transferred Companies.

Section 6.2    Books and Records; Cooperation. The parties to this Agreement and their respective Affiliates will provide each other with such cooperation and information as the Buyer or Sellers reasonably may request of the other or such Affiliates with respect to any Tax matter at the expense of the requesting Party (unless such expense is a Loss for which an indemnity is due), provided that the foregoing shall be done in a manner so as not to interfere unreasonably with the conduct of the business of the parties.

Section 6.3    Transfer Taxes. All Transfer Taxes incurred in connection with transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be borne equally between Sellers, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand; provided that any Transfer Taxes resulting from the Buyer Restructuring shall be solely for the account of the Buyer.

Section 6.4    Refunds. All refunds, credits or offsets of Taxes (including interest actually received thereon from a relevant taxing authority) for which Sellers are responsible pursuant to Section 6.1(a) or Section 9.2 (other than to the extent such refund, credit or offset results from the carryback of a Tax attribute of any Transferred Company generated in a Post-Closing Tax Period or is reflected in the Closing Statement) shall be for the account of Sellers, and Buyer shall promptly pay such amounts (less any net Taxes incurred by Buyer, its Affiliates or the Transferred Companies in connection with the receipt of such refund, credit, offset or interest) to Sellers if such refunds, credits or offsets are received by Buyer or any Transferred Company. Buyer shall be entitled to all other refunds, credits or offsets of Taxes (including interest received thereon from a relevant taxing authority) in respect of any Taxes of the Transferred Companies, and Sellers shall pay such amounts to Buyer if such amounts are received by Sellers or any Affiliate thereof (less any net Taxes incurred by Sellers or their Affiliates in connection with the receipt of such refund, credit, offset or interest).

Section 6.5    Tax Contests. Each of the Seller Representative, on one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, shall promptly notify the other in writing upon receipt by the Seller Representative, Buyer, any Transferred Company or any of their Affiliates of notice of any Tax audits, examinations or assessments that could give rise to a liability for which the other party is

responsible under this Agreement, provided that failure to provide such notice shall not limit the rights of such party under this Article VI except to the extent the other party is materially prejudiced by such failure. The Seller Representative shall control the portion of any such audit, examination or proceeding that relates to any Taxes for which Sellers are responsible, provided that the Seller Representative shall (i) keep Buyer regularly informed as to the status of any such audit, examination or proceeding (including by providing copies of all notices received from the relevant Tax Authority), (ii) permit Buyer to participate in any such audit, examination or proceeding at Buyer’s expense and (iii) to the extent it could have an adverse impact on Buyer or its Affiliates in a Post-Closing Tax Period, not settle or compromise any such audit, examination or proceeding without the consent of Buyer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Buyer shall control any audit, examination or proceeding (or portion thereof) that does not relate to Taxes for which Sellers are responsible under Section 6.1(a) or Section 9.2.

Section 6.6    Tax Sharing Agreements. Prior to the Closing Date, Sellers shall terminate all Tax Sharing Agreements between any Transferred Company, on the one hand, and any Seller or any of their respective Affiliates (other than the Transferred Companies), on the other hand, such that no Transferred Company shall have any obligations thereunder following the Closing.

Section 6.7    Overlap. To the extent of any inconsistency between Section 6.5 and Section 9.6, this Article VI shall control as to Tax matters.

(k)    Representations; Performance. The representations and warranties of Sellers set forth in Article II and Article III of this Agreement (other than the Seller Fundamental Representations) shall be true and correct (without regard to materiality or Material Adverse Effect qualifiers therein) at and as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date with the same effect as though made at and as of such date (except to the extent expressly made at and as of a specific date, in which case as of such specific date), except where the failure to be so true and correct would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. The Seller Fundamental Representations (i) that are qualified by materiality or “Material Adverse Effect” shall be true and correct in all respects and (ii) that are not so qualified shall be true and correct in all material respects, in each case at and as of the date of this Agreement and at and as of the Closing Date with the same effect as though made at and as of such date (except to the extent expressly made as of a specific date, in which case as of such specific date). Sellers shall have in all material respects duly performed or complied with all agreements, covenants and conditions required by this Agreement to be performed or complied with by Sellers on or prior to the Closing Date. Each Seller shall have delivered to Buyer a certificate dated the Closing Date and signed by a duly authorized officer (in the case of any Seller that is not a natural person) or by such Seller (in the case of a Seller who is a natural person) to the effect set forth above in this Section 7.2(a).

(l)    No Material Adverse Effect. No event, occurrence, fact, condition, change, development or effect shall exist or have occurred or come to exist since the Reference Date that, individually or in the aggregate, has resulted in, or would reasonably be expected to result in, a Material Adverse Effect.

(m)    Third Party Approvals. The Third Party Approvals set forth on Schedule 7.2 shall have been obtained and shall not have been revoked.

Section 7.3    Conditions to Obligations of Sellers. The obligation of Sellers to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby shall be subject to the fulfillment at or prior to the Closing of the following additional conditions (or waiver thereof in writing by the Seller Representative on behalf of Sellers):

(a)    Representations; Performance. The representations and warranties of Buyer set forth in Article IV of this Agreement (other than the Buyer Fundamental Representations) shall be true and correct (without regard to materiality or Material Adverse Effect qualifiers therein) at and as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date with the same effect as though made at and as of such date (except to the extent expressly made as of an earlier date, in which case as of such specific date), except where the failure to be so true and correct would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on the ability of the Buyer to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Buyer Fundamental Representations (i) that are qualified by materiality shall be true and correct in all respects and (ii) that are not so qualified shall be true and correct in all respects, in each case at and as of the date of the Agreement and at and as of the Closing Date with the same effect as though made at and as of such date (except to the extent expressly made as of a specific date, in which case as of such specific date).

Section 7.4    Frustration of Closing Conditions. The Sellers may not rely as a basis for not consummating the transactions contemplated hereby on the failure of any condition set forth in Section 7.3 to be satisfied if such failure was directly caused by the Sellers’ failure to perform in all material respects any of its material obligations under this Agreement. Buyer may not rely as a basis for not consummating the transactions contemplated hereby on the failure of any condition set forth in Section 7.2 to be satisfied if such failure was directly caused by the Buyer’s failure to perform in all material respects any of its material obligations under this Agreement.

Section 8.1    Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing Date:

(n)    by the written agreement of Buyer and the Seller Representative;

(o)    by either Buyer or the Seller Representative by notice to the other party, if:

(i)    the Closing shall not have been consummated on or before July 31, 2015 (as may be extended in accordance with this clause (b), the “End Date”); provided that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(b)(i) shall not be available to any party whose breach of any provision of this Agreement results in the failure of the Closing to be consummated by such time; provided further, that if the Closing has not occurred by July 31, 2015 due solely to the failure of any Governmental Approval set forth in Section 3.2 of the Seller Disclosure Letter or Section 4.2 of the Buyer Disclosure Letter to have been obtained as contemplated by Section 7.1(b), the End Date shall be automatically extended to the date that is the last day of the month that is three months after the month in which the End Date occurs; or

(ii)    (A) there shall be any Law that permanently makes consummation of the Closing illegal or otherwise prohibited or (B) any judgment, injunction, order or decree of any Governmental Authority having competent jurisdiction permanently enjoining Buyer or Sellers from consummating the Closing is entered and such judgment, injunction, judgment or order shall have become final and nonappealable.

(p)    by Buyer by notice to the Seller Representative, if a breach of any representation or warranty or failure to perform or comply with any covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement on the part of Sellers shall have occurred that would cause the condition set forth in Section 7.2(a) not to be satisfied and such breach or failure shall not have been cured or eliminated within thirty (30) days following receipt by the Seller Representative of written notice thereof from Buyer or the End Date, whichever is earlier; provided that Buyer will not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(c) if the Seller Representative could then terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(d) or if Buyer is otherwise then in material breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements hereunder;

(q)    by the Seller Representative by notice to Buyer, if a breach of any representation or warranty or failure to perform or comply with any covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement on the part of Buyer shall have occurred that would cause the condition set forth in Section 7.3(a) not to be satisfied and such breach or failure shall not have been cured or eliminated within thirty (30) days following receipt by Buyer of written notice thereof from the Seller Representative or the End Date, whichever is earlier; provided that the Seller Representative will not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant

to Section 8.1(d) if the Seller Representative could then terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(c) or if any Seller is otherwise then in material breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements hereunder; or

(r)    by the Seller Representative by notice to Buyer, if (i) all of the conditions set forth in Sections 7.1 and 7.2 have been satisfied (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but each of which is at the time of such notice of termination capable of being satisfied as if such time were the Closing), (ii) the Seller Representative has irrevocably notified Buyer in writing (A) that all of the conditions set forth in Sections 7.1 and 7.3 have been satisfied or waived (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but each of which is at the time of such notice of termination capable of being satisfied as if such time were the Closing), and (B) that Sellers are ready, willing and able to consummate the Closing; and (iii) Buyer fails to consummate the Closing within three (3) Business Days following the date the Closing was required by Section 1.3.

Section 8.2    Effect of Termination. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8.1, this Agreement shall, except as expressly indicated in the last sentence of this Section 8.2, become void and of no effect without liability of any party (or any of its directors, officers, employees, stockholders, Affiliates, agents, representatives or advisors) to the other parties hereto, provided that no such termination shall relieve either party of liability for fraud or any willful and material breach of this Agreement or for any liability existing pursuant to the surviving provisions expressly indicated in the last sentence of this Section 8.2. For purposes hereof, “willful and material breach” means a material breach by a party to this Agreement as a result of an action or failure to act by such party that such party knew would result in a breach of this Agreement. The provisions of Section 1.6(d) (Seller Representative Indemnification), Section 5.6 (Public Announcements), the reimbursement and indemnification provisions of Section 5.11(c), this Section 8.2 (Termination), Section 8.3 (Termination Fee), Section 10.1 (Certain Terms), Section 10.2 (Construction) and Article XI (Miscellaneous) shall survive any termination hereof pursuant to Section 8.1.

Section 8.3    Termination Fee.

(a)    In the event that this Agreement is terminated by the Seller Representative pursuant to Section 8.1(d) or Section 8.1(e) or is otherwise terminated when terminable pursuant to Section 8.1(d) or Section 8.1(e), then Buyer shall promptly, but in no event later than two (2) Business Days after the date of such termination, pay or cause to be paid to Tiptree (in its individual capacity, and not as Seller Representative hereunder) or its designees

the Termination Fee (an amount equal to $10,000,000) (the “Termination Fee”) by wire transfer of same day funds (it being understood that in no event shall Buyer be required to pay the Termination Fee on more than one occasion). Solely for purposes of establishing the basis for the amount thereof, and without in any way increasing the amount of the Termination Fee or expanding the circumstances in which the Termination Fee is to be paid, it is agreed that the Termination Fee is not a penalty, but rather is liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate Sellers in the circumstances in which the Termination Fee is payable for the efforts and resources expended and opportunity forgone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, which amount would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision.

(b)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in the event Buyer fails to effect the Closing or otherwise breaches this Agreement or fails to perform hereunder, then, except as and only to the extent expressly permitted by Section 11.10, Sellers’ sole and exclusive remedy (whether at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise) against the Buyer Related Parties in respect of this Agreement, any Contract executed in connection herewith (including the Equity Financing Commitment, the Limited Guaranty and the Debt Financing Commitment, but excluding the Confidentiality Agreement) and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby shall be to terminate this Agreement in accordance with (and subject to the conditions of) this Article VIII and collect, if due, the Termination Fee and any reimbursement or indemnity obligations under Section 5.11(c) or Section 11.3 from Buyer or pursuant to the Limited Guaranty from Guarantors, and upon payment of such amounts in accordance with Section 5.11(c), Section 11.3 and this Section 8.3(b), except in connection with an order of specific performance as and only to the extent provided in Section 11.10, (A) no Buyer Related Party shall have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any Contract executed in connection herewith (including the Equity Financing Commitment, the Limited Guaranty and the Debt Financing Commitment, but excluding the Confidentiality Agreement) or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (B) neither Sellers nor any other Seller Related Party shall be entitled to bring or maintain any claim, action, proceeding or other Litigation against Buyer or any other Buyer Related Party arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, any Contract executed in connection herewith (including the Equity Financing Commitment, the Limited Guaranty and the Debt Financing Commitment, but excluding the Confidentiality Agreement) or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (or the abandonment or termination thereof) or any matters forming the basis for such termination, and (C) Sellers and the Seller Representative shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause any claim, action, proceeding or other Litigation pending in connection with this Agreement, any Contract executed in connection herewith (including the Equity Financing Commitment, the Limited Guaranty and the Debt Financing Commitment, but excluding the Confidentiality Agreement) or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, to the extent maintained by Sellers or another Seller Related Party against Buyer

or any other Buyer Related Party, to be dismissed with prejudice promptly following the payment of any such amounts. For the avoidance of doubt, (x) under no circumstances shall Sellers (directly or through the Seller Representative) be entitled to collect the Termination Fee on more than one occasion and (y) under no circumstances shall Sellers (directly or through the Seller Representative) be permitted or entitled to receive both a grant of specific performance of the obligation to close contemplated by Section 11.10 that results in the Closing occurring and any money damages, including the Termination Fee. In connection with any loss suffered as a result of any breach of any representation, covenant or agreement in this Agreement or the failure of the Closing to be consummated, or in respect of any oral representation made or alleged to have been made in connection herewith, in each case, other than in a circumstance in which the Seller Representative is permitted to terminate this Agreement and cause Tiptree or its designee to receive the Termination Fee pursuant to this Section 8.3 or any reimbursement or indemnity obligations under Section 5.11(c), Section 11.3 or the Limited Guaranty, Sellers agrees that the maximum aggregate liability of Buyer shall be limited to an amount equal to the amount of the Termination Fee plus any reimbursement or indemnity obligations under Section 5.11(c), Section 11.3 and the Limited Guaranty, and in no event shall Sellers (directly or through the Seller Representative) seek to recover any money damages in excess of such amount. In no event shall Sellers (directly or through the Seller Representative) seek equitable relief or to recover monetary damages from any Buyer Related Party in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement other than (i) Buyer pursuant to (and subject to the conditions of) this Agreement and (ii) monetary damages from Guarantors pursuant to (and subject to the conditions of) the Limited Guaranty.

(c)    The parties acknowledge that the agreements contained in this Section are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that, without these agreements, the parties would not enter into this Agreement.

Section 9.1    Survival. The representations and warranties of the parties contained in this Agreement or in any certificate or other writing delivered pursuant hereto or in connection herewith shall survive the Closing until the date that is eighteen (18) months following the Closing Date (the “Survival Period”); provided that the representations and warranties in Section 3.17 (other than Section 3.17(i), (k) and (l)) shall survive for the applicable statute of limitations plus sixty (60) days and the representations and warranties in Section 3.17(i), (k) and (l) shall survive until the earlier of (x) the date that is three (3) years following the Closing Date and (y) the Early Termination Date; provided further, that the representations and warranties in Sections 2.1 (Authority), 2.2 (Ownership of Securities), 2.3 (Corporate Status), 2.6 (Finders’ Fees); 3.1 (Corporate Status), 3.4

(Capitalization), and 3.31 (Finders’ Fees) (collectively, the “Seller Fundamental Representations”) shall survive the Closing indefinitely or until the latest date permitted by Law. Unless a specified period is set forth in this Agreement (in which event such specified period will control), covenants and agreements of the parties contained in this Agreement that by their terms are required to be satisfied or complied with prior to the Closing shall for purposes of this Article IX survive the Closing until the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the Closing Date. The covenants and agreements of the parties contained in this Agreement that by their terms are required to be satisfied or complied with after the Closing shall survive the Closing in accordance with their respective terms. Notwithstanding the preceding sentences, any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement in respect of which indemnity may be sought under this Agreement for Losses arising as a result of an inaccuracy or breach thereof shall survive the time at which it would otherwise terminate pursuant to the preceding sentences with respect to any particular claim for indemnification thereunder, if written notice of the inaccuracy or breach thereof giving rise to such claim for indemnification shall have been given to the party against whom such indemnity may be sought prior to such time in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Article IX.

(f)    For purposes of this Article IX, with respect to any inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty, any express qualifications or limitations set forth in such representation or warranty as to “materiality”, “Material Adverse Effect” and similar materiality qualifications contained therein shall be disregarded solely for purposes of

determining the amount of Losses of the applicable Indemnified Party’s in respect of such breach or inaccuracy, but not for purposes of establishing whether the representation or warranty as made by the applicable party or parties to this Agreement was actually inaccurate or breached.

(g)    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnification or reimbursement under any provision of this Agreement for any amount to the extent such Person or its Affiliates has been indemnified or reimbursed for such amount under any other provision of this Agreement.

(h)    The rights and remedies of any party in respect of any inaccuracy or breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement shall in no way be limited by the fact that the act, omission, occurrence or other state of facts or circumstances upon which any claim of any such inaccuracy or breach is based may also be the subject matter of any other representation, warranty, covenant or agreement as to which there is no inaccuracy or breach.

(i)    Except as provided in Section 11.10, the indemnities provided for in Article VI and this Article IX shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of Buyer Indemnitees or Seller Indemnitees, as the case may be, after the Closing for any inaccuracy of any representation or warranty of Sellers or Buyer, respectively, herein or any other breach of this Agreement; provided that nothing herein shall limit in any way any such party’s remedies in respect of fraud or willful breach (as defined in Section 8.2) by the other party in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

(j)    No party to this Agreement (or any of its Affiliates) shall, in any event, be liable or otherwise responsible to any other party (or any of its Affiliates) for any punitive damages, lost profits, diminution of value or consequential, special or indirect damages of such other party (or any of its Affiliates) arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the performance or breach hereof, other than any such damages arising in connection with a Third Party Claim; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, Sellers shall be liable hereunder for lost profits and consequential damages to the extent they are (i) not based on any special circumstances of the Indemnified Party not actually known to the Sellers, (ii) the natural, probable and reasonably foreseeable result of the event that gave rise thereto or the matter for which indemnification is sought hereunder and (iii) resulting from breaches or inaccuracies of the representations and warranties in Section 3.17(i), (k) and (l)).

(k)    In no event will any Seller or any of their respective Affiliates have any liability hereunder in respect of the Losses of any Person to the extent such Losses result from or arise out of the Buyer Restructuring and would not have been incurred by any Person but for the Buyer Restructuring. For the avoidance of doubt, subject to the foregoing sentence, the consummation of the Buyer Restructuring shall not limit the Buyer

Indemnitees’ right to indemnification under Section 9.2, and the Buyer Indemnitees shall be entitled to indemnification of their Losses to the same extent that such indemnification would have been available had the Buyer Restructuring not occurred.

(l)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, none of the limitations in this Section 9.4 shall apply in the event of any fraud or willful breach on the part of any of the parties.

(m)    The rights of Buyer to indemnification or any other remedy under this Agreement shall not be impacted or limited by any knowledge that Buyer may have acquired, or could have acquired, whether before or after the Closing Date, nor by any investigation or diligence by Buyer. Sellers hereby acknowledge that, regardless of any investigation made (or not made) by or on behalf of Buyer, and regardless of the results of any such investigation, Buyer has entered into this transaction in express reliance upon the representations and warranties of Sellers made in this Agreement.

Section 9.5    Payment Adjustments.

If an Indemnified Party receives any amounts under applicable insurance policies, or from any other Person alleged to be responsible for any Losses, subsequent to an indemnification payment by the Indemnifying Party, then such Indemnified Party shall promptly reimburse the Indemnifying Party for any payment made or expense incurred by such Indemnifying Party in connection with providing such indemnification payment up to the amount received by the Indemnified Party, net of any expenses incurred by such Indemnified Party in collecting such amount.

(g)    Any Loss suffered or incurred by the Buyer Indemnitees or the Seller Indemnitees for which an indemnification claim is made under this Agreement shall be (i) net of, and reduced by the amount of any reduction in Taxes actually realized by the indemnified party during the period ending two (2) years following the end of the Tax year in which such Loss was incurred (determined on a “with and without” basis) (“Tax Benefit”) and (ii) shall be increased by any increase in Taxes actually realized by the indemnified party during the period ending two (2) years following the end of the Tax year in which such Loss was incurred (determined on a “with and without” basis) as a result of its entitlement to indemnification (“Tax Detriment”); provided, for the avoidance of doubt, that a Tax

Detriment shall not include any increase in Taxes arising out of an indemnification payment treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price as provided under Section 9.5(c). If the indemnified party receives a Tax Benefit or Tax Detriment after it has already received an indemnification payment on account of its claim, then the indemnifying party or indemnified party, as applicable, shall promptly thereafter make a corrective payment.

(h)    Any indemnification payments made pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated for tax purposes as an adjustment to the Purchase Price.

Section 9.6    Third Party Claim Procedures. In the case of any Litigation asserted by a third party (a “Third Party Claim”) against a party entitled to indemnification under this Agreement (an “Indemnified Party”), notice shall be given by the Indemnified Party to the party required to provide indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) promptly after such Indemnified Party has written notice of such Third Party Claim, and the Indemnified Party shall permit the Indemnifying Party (at the expense of such Indemnifying Party) to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim; provided that (a) counsel for the Indemnifying Party who shall conduct the defense of such Third Party Claim shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, and the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at such Indemnified Party’s expense, and (b) the failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligation under this Agreement except to the such Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced as a result of such failure to give notice. If the Indemnifying Party does not promptly assume the defense of such Third Party Claim following notice thereof, the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to assume and control such defense without prejudice to the ability of the Indemnified Party to enforce its claim for indemnification against the Indemnifying Party hereunder. Except with the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, no Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such Third Party Claim, shall consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that provides for injunctive or other nonmonetary relief affecting the Indemnified Party or that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by each claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of an irrevocable release from all liability with respect to such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party have conflicting (or substantially divergent) interests in respect of the matter at issue, or (ii) the Indemnified Party shall have the right to take over and control the defense, settlement, negotiation or Litigation relating to any such Third Party Claim, and the Indemnifying Party shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party’s counsel in respect thereof; provided that if the Indemnified Party does so take over and control, the Indemnified Party shall not settle such Third Party Claim without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. In any event, Sellers, and Buyer shall cooperate in the defense of any Third Party Claim subject to this Article IX and the records of each shall be reasonably available to the other with respect to such defense. This Section 9.6 shall not apply to Third Party Claims in respect of Taxes, which shall be governed by Section 6.5.

Section 9.7    Other Claims. A claim for indemnification to the extent not resulting from a Third Party Claim may be asserted by written notice to the party from whom indemnification is sought and, unless disputed by the Indemnifying Party by delivery of a written dispute notice to the party seeking indemnification within sixty (60) days after receipt by the Indemnifying Party of such claim for indemnification, shall be deemed agreed by all parties, final and undisputed and shall be paid by any such Indemnifying Party promptly, but in no even more than thirty (30) days after receipt of such undisputed claim for indemnification.
