amount (the “Post-Closing Statement Objection”). The Post-Closing Statement Objection shall specify those items or amounts as to which Seller disagrees, and Seller

shall be deemed to have agreed with all other items and amounts contained in the Post- Closing Statement. If Seller fails to deliver such a written notice within such 30 day period, Buyer’s calculation of Total Assets set forth in the Post-Closing Statement shall be binding upon the parties.

(c)If the Post-Closing Statement Objection shall be duly delivered pursuant to Section 2.09(b), Seller and Buyer shall, during the 30 days following such delivery, use reasonable efforts to reach agreement on the disputed items or amounts in order to determine the amount of Total Assets. If, during such period or any mutually agreed extension thereof, Seller and Buyer are unable to reach such agreement, they shall promptly thereafter cause an Accounting Referee to review this Section 2.09, the definitions of Total Assets and the disputed items or amounts for the purpose of calculating Total Assets. In making such calculation, the Accounting Referee shall consider only those items or amounts in Buyer’s calculation of Total Assets as to which Seller has disagreed. In no event shall the Accounting Referee assign a value to Total Assets that is less than Buyer’s calculation set forth on the Post-Closing Statement or greater than Seller’s calculation set forth in the Post-Closing Statement Objection.

(d)If the Final Total Assets as determined by the Accounting Referee is closer in amount to Buyer’s calculation of Total Assets as set forth on the Post-Closing Statement than to Seller’s calculation of Total Assets as set forth on the Post-Closing Statement Objection, then Seller shall pay all fees and expenses of the Accounting Referee in connection with the services provided pursuant to Section 2.09(c). If the Final Total Assets as determined by the Accounting Referee is closer in amount to Seller’s calculation of Total Assets as set forth on the Post-Closing Statement Objection than to Buyer’s calculation of Total Assets as set forth on the Post-Closing Statement, then Buyer shall pay all fees and expenses of the Accounting Referee in connection with the services provided pursuant to Section 2.09(c). If the difference between Total Assets as determined by the Accounting Referee and Buyer’s calculation of Total Assets as set forth on the Post- Closing Statement is equal to the difference between Total Assets as determined by the Accounting Referee and Seller’s calculation of Total Assets as set forth on the Post- Closing Statement Objection, then all fees and expenses of the Accounting Referee provided pursuant to Section 2.09(c) shall be borne one-half by Buyer and one-half by Seller.

(e)Buyer and Seller shall reasonably cooperate with one another in the preparation of the Post-Closing Statement and Post-Closing Statement Objection, as applicable, including by providing the other party and its representatives with reasonable access during normal business hours to such party’s books, records (including work papers, schedules, memoranda and other documents), facilities and employees.

(f)“Final Total Assets” means Total Assets as set forth on (i) the Post-Closing Statement, if Seller does not deliver a Post-Closing Statement Objection to Buyer in accordance with Section 2.09(b), (ii) the Post-Closing Statement as adjusted by written

agreement of Buyer and Seller, if so adjusted in accordance with Section 2.09(c) or (iii) the Post-Closing Statement as adjusted by the Accounting Referee, if so adjusted in accordance with Section 2.09(c).

Section 2.10. Adjustment Of Purchase Price. (a) If Closing Total Assets exceeds Final Total Assets, within ten days after the Final Total Assets has been determined Seller shall pay to Buyer, as an adjustment to the Purchase Price, with interest as provided in Section 2.10(b), by wire transfer in immediately available funds to such account as may be designated by Buyer, an amount equal to (x) 1.3 multiplied by (y) the amount of such excess. If Final Total Assets exceeds Closing Total Assets, within ten days after the Final Closing Total Assets has been determined Buyer shall pay to Seller, as an adjustment to the Purchase Price, with interest as provided in Section 2.10(b), an amount equal to (x) 1.3 multiplied by (y) the amount of such excess.

(b)    The amount of any payment or distribution pursuant to Section 2.10(a) shall bear interest from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the date of payment at a rate per annum equal to the prime rate as published in the Wall Street Journal, Eastern Edition in effect from time to time during the period from the Closing Date to the date of payment. Such interest shall be payable at the same time as the payment to which it relates and shall be calculated daily on the basis of a year of 365 days and the actual number of days elapsed.

Section 3.01. Earn-Out Payments.

(a)In addition to the payments made pursuant to Article 2, Buyer will pay, or cause to be paid, to Seller, subject to Section 3.01(b), Section 6.06 and Section 12.06(a), twenty-five percent (25%) of the Adjusted Pre-Tax Net Income of the Business calculated for each of the following periods (the amounts payable pursuant to this Section 3.01 being referred to as “Earn-Out Payments”): (i) from the Closing Date to December 31, 2014;

(b)For the avoidance of doubt, Seller shall be responsible for any incremental investment banking or other incentive-based fees, including any such fees of Zelman Partners, that becomes payable as a result of the achievement of any such Earn-Out Payments, and Buyer shall be entitled to hold back the amount of such incremental fees from any Earn-Out Payment prior to making any such Earn-Out Payment to Seller;

provided that Buyer shall timely deliver any such held back amounts to the payees of such incremental fees.

Section 3.02. Earn-Out Notice. As soon as reasonably practicable (but no later than 60 days following the end of the period to which the applicable Earn-Out Payment relates), Buyer shall deliver to Seller a certificate stating Buyer’s calculation of the applicable Earn-Out Payment (an “Earn-Out Notice”). If Seller disagrees with Buyer’s calculation of the applicable Earn-Out Payment, Seller may, within 20 days after receipt of the Earn-Out Notice (including reasonably detailed supporting calculations), deliver a written notice to Buyer disagreeing with such calculation and setting forth Seller’s calculation of the applicable Earn-Out Payment (an “Earn-Out Notice Objection”). If Seller fails to deliver an Earn-Out Notice Objection within such 20 day period, Buyer’s calculation of the Earn-Out Payment shall be binding upon the parties. If Seller delivers an Earn-Out Notice Objection to Seller, and Buyer and Seller are unable to agree, within 15 days after the date of the Earn-Out Notice Objection, to the applicable Earn-Out Payment, the parties shall select an Accounting Referee to resolve such dispute. The Accounting Referee shall deliver to Seller and Buyer, as promptly as practicable, a report setting forth such calculation. Such report shall be final and binding upon Seller and Buyer. If the applicable Earn-Out Payment as determined by the Accounting Referee is closer in amount to Buyer’s calculation of the applicable Earn-Out Payment as set forth on the Earn-Out Notice than to Seller’s calculation of the applicable Earn-Out Payment as set forth on the Earn-Out Notice Objection, then Seller shall pay all fees and expenses of the Accounting Referee in connection with the services provided pursuant to this Section. If the applicable Earn-Out Payment as determined by the Accounting Referee is closer in amount to Seller’s calculation of the applicable Earn-Out Payment as set forth on the Earn-Out Notice Objection than to Buyer’s calculation of the applicable Earn-Out Payment as set forth on the Earn-Out Notice, then Buyer shall pay all fees and expenses of the Accounting Referee in connection with the services provided pursuant to this Section. If the difference between the applicable Earn-Out Payment as determined by the Accounting Referee and Buyer’s calculation of the applicable Earn-Out Payment as set forth on the Earn-Out Notice is equal to the difference between Total Assets as determined by the Accounting Referee and Seller’s calculation of the applicable Earn-Out Payment as set forth on the Earn-Out Notice Objection, then all fees and expenses of the Accounting Referee provided pursuant to this Section shall be borne one-half by Buyer and one-half by Seller.

Section 3.03. Payment. Buyer shall pay to Seller the applicable Earn-Out Payment, if any, subject to Section 3.01(b), Section 6.06 and Section 12.06(a), within 5 days following (a) the earlier to occur of Seller delivering notice to Buyer that it agrees with the calculation of the applicable Earn-Out Payment as set forth in the Earn-Out Notice, or the expiration of the period set forth in Section 3.02 above in which Seller may deliver an Earn-Out Notice Objection, or (b) if an Earn-Out Notice Objection is delivered by Seller to Buyer, the earlier to occur of the date of the mutual agreement of Seller and Buyer to the applicable Earn-Out Payment, or the date the Accounting Referee’s report is issued pursuant to Section 3.02 above. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Buyer shall not be obligated to pay to Seller the Earn-Out Payment due, if any with respect

to the initial period ended December 31, 2014 until the date that is the one year anniversary of the Closing Date.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer shall not, and shall not authorize or permit its Subsidiaries to, take any action with the sole intent of avoiding or reducing the payment of any Earn-Out Payment.

Section 3.05. Earn-Out Payments Not a Security. The Parties do not intend the right of Seller (or any successor to or stockholder of Seller, as applicable) to receive Earn- Out Payments to be a security. Accordingly, the right of Seller (or any successor to or stockholder of Seller, as applicable) to receive Earn-Out Payments (i) shall not be represented by a certificate, (ii) does not represent an ownership interest in Buyer or the Business, and (iii) does not entitle Seller (or any successor to or stockholder of Seller, as applicable) to any rights common to stockholders of Buyer other than as expressly set forth herein.

Any such offers shall be at such salary or wage and benefit levels and on such other terms and conditions as Buyer shall in its sole discretion deem appropriate and shall be subject to Buyer’s standard employment application process (which shall include background checks). The employees who accept and commence employment with Buyer are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Hired Employees.” Seller will not take, and will cause each of its subsidiaries not to take, any action which would impede, hinder, interfere or otherwise compete with Buyer’s effort to hire any Hired Employees. Buyer shall not assume responsibility for any Hired Employee until such employee commences employment with Buyer.

Such notice shall set forth in reasonable detail such Third Party Claim and the basis for indemnification (taking into account the information then available to the Indemnified Party). The failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent such failure shall have materially and adversely prejudiced the Indemnifying Party.

(b)The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any Third Party Claim and, subject to the limitations set forth in this Section, shall be entitled to control and appoint lead counsel for such defense, in each case at its own expense; provided that prior to assuming control of such defense, the Indemnifying Party must (i) acknowledge that it would have an indemnity obligation for the Damages resulting from such Third Party Claim as provided under this Article 12 and (ii) furnish the Indemnified Party with evidence that the Indemnifying Party has adequate resources to defend the Third Party Claim and fulfill its indemnity obligations hereunder.

(c)The Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume or maintain control of the defense of any Third Party Claim and shall pay the fees and expenses of counsel retained by the Indemnified Party if (i) the Indemnifying Party does not deliver the acknowledgment referred to in Section 12.03(b)(i) within 30 days of receipt of notice of the Third Party Claim pursuant to Section 12.03(a), (ii) the Third Party Claim relates to or arises in connection with any criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation, (iii) the Indemnified Party reasonably believes an adverse determination with respect to the Third Party Claim would be materially detrimental to the reputation or future business prospects of the Indemnified Party or any of its affiliates, (iv) the Third Party Claim seeks an injunction or equitable relief against the Indemnified Party or any of its affiliates, (v) the Indemnifying Party has failed or is failing to prosecute or defend vigorously the Third Party Claim or (vi) the Third Party Claim relates to Taxes.

the settlement does not expressly unconditionally release the Indemnified Party and its affiliates from all liabilities and obligations with respect to such Third Party Claim or the settlement imposes injunctive or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party or any of its affiliates.

(e)In circumstances where the Indemnifying Party is controlling the defense of a Third Party Claim in accordance with paragraphs (b) and (c) above, the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any Third Party Claim and to employ separate counsel of its choice for such purpose, in which case the fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be borne by the Indemnified Party; provided that in such event the Indemnifying Party shall pay the fees and expenses of such separate counsel (i) incurred by the Indemnified Party prior to the date the Indemnifying Party assumes control of the defense of the Third Party Claim or (ii) if representation of both the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party by the same counsel would create a conflict of interest.

shall be entitled to recover pursuant to this Article 12 shall be an aggregate amount equal to $2,000,000 (the “Cap”); provided, that the Cap shall not apply to Damages relating to fraud, Excluded Liabilities, or Warranty Breaches of Fundamental Representations (which claims shall be capped at the Purchase Price, and which Damages shall not, for the avoidance of doubt, be included in the calculation of Damages subject to the Cap).

Section 12.06. Earn-Out Payment Offset. (a) Buyer shall also have the right, but not the obligation, to offset and deduct the amount of any indemnifiable Damages pursuant to Section 12.02(a) from any Earn-Out Payment that is earned and becomes payable pursuant to Section 3.01. In the event that at any time one or more Earn-Out Payments becomes due and payable under Article 3 and Buyer has made a claim for indemnification under Section 12.03 or Section 12.04 and such claim is pending and unresolved at the time an Earn-Out Payment is payable, then Buyer shall be entitled to deduct from such Earn- Out Payment an amount equal to the amount of Buyer’s claim for indemnification (an “Earn-Out Payment Holdback”) until a final determination of such claim is made. Upon final determination or resolution of the indemnification claim for which the Earn-Out Payment Holdback was established, then any portion of the Earn-Out Payment Holdback that is greater than the Damages payable by Seller in respect of such claim shall be paid to Seller within ten (10) Business Days of such final determination; provided that no other claim for indemnification under Section 12.03 or Section 12.04 is pending and unresolved at such time.

(b)The representations, warranties, covenants and obligations of Seller, and the rights and remedies that may be exercised by Buyer based on such representations, warranties, covenants and obligations, will survive and not be limited or affected by any investigation conducted by Buyer or any agent of Buyer with respect to, or any knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired) by Buyer or any agent of Buyer at any time, whether before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the Closing, with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of, or compliance with or performance of, any such representation, warranty, covenant or obligation, and Buyer shall not be required to show that it relied on any such representation, warranty, covenant or obligation of Seller in order to be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article 12. The waiver by Buyer of any of the conditions set forth in Article 11 will not affect or limit the provisions of this Article 12.

Section 12.07. Purchase Price Adjustment. Any amount paid by Seller pursuant to this Article 12 shall, for tax purposes, be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price.

Section 13.01. Grounds for Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing:

(a)by mutual written agreement of Seller and Buyer;

(b)by either Seller or Buyer, if the Closing shall not have been consummated on or before April 30, 2014;

p.m. California time on the fifth Business Day after such date that Seller has delivered written notice to Buyer certifying that all of the conditions set forth in Article 11 (other than conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, provided that such conditions will be satisfied at the Closing) have been satisfied (or, in the case of conditions set forth in Section 11.03, waived by Seller); or

The party desiring to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 13.01(b), 13.01(c), 13.01(d) or 13.01(e) shall give notice of such termination to the other party.

Section 13.02. Effect of Termination. If this Agreement is terminated as permitted by Section 13.01, such termination shall be without liability of either party (or any stockholder, director, officer, employee, agent, consultant or representative of such party) to the other party to this Agreement; provided that if such termination shall result from the

(i) willful failure of either party to fulfill a condition to the performance of the obligations of the other party, (ii) failure to perform a covenant of this Agreement or (iii) breach by either party hereto of any representation or warranty or agreement contained herein, such party shall be fully liable for any and all Damages incurred or suffered by the other party as a result of such failure or breach. The provisions of Section 7.01, 14.02, 14.05, 14.06 and 14.07 shall survive any termination hereof pursuant to Section 13.01. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if Buyer fails for any reason to consummate the purchase contemplated hereunder or otherwise is in breach of this Agreement, the aggregate liability of Buyer and any of its former, current and future direct or indirect equity holders, controlling persons, stockholders, directors, officers, employees, agents, Affiliates, members, managers, general or limited partners or assignees shall be limited to the amount of any Termination Fee that may be payable, whether at law or equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise. None of Buyer or any of its former, current and future direct or indirect equity holders, controlling persons, stockholders, directors, officers, employees, agents, Affiliates, members, managers, general or limited partners or assignees shall have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement except as expressly provided herein (including Section 14.13).

Otherwise, any such notice, request or communication shall be deemed not to have been received until the next succeeding Business Day in the place of receipt.

Section 14.02. Amendments and Waivers. (a) Any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed, in the case of an amendment, by each party to this Agreement, or in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom the waiver is to be effective.

(b)    No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

Section 14.03. Disclosure Schedule References. The parties hereto agree that any reference in a particular Section of the Seller Disclosure Schedule or Buyer Disclosure Schedule, as applicable, shall only be deemed to be an exception to (or, as applicable, a disclosure for purposes of) (a) the representations and warranties (or covenants, as applicable) of the relevant party that are contained in the corresponding Section of this Agreement and (b) any other representations and warranties of such party that is contained in this Agreement, but only if the relevance of that reference as an exception to (or a disclosure for purposes of) such representations and warranties would be readily apparent to a reasonable person who has read that reference and such representations and warranties, without any independent knowledge on the part of the reader regarding the matter(s) so disclosed.

NOT CONSUMMATED DUE TO MATTERS OBLIGATING BUYER TO PAY THE TERMINATION FEE PURSUANT TO THIS SECTION 14.04, THE TERMINATION FEE SHALL BE PAYABLE TO SELLER AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT IT WOULD BE IMPRACTICABLE AND EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO ASCERTAIN THE ACTUAL DAMAGES SUFFERED BY SELLER AS A RESULT OF BUYER'S FAILURE TO CONSUMMATE THE PURCHASE OF THE PURCHASED ASSETS PURSUANT TO AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT, AND THAT UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES EXISTING AS OF THE DATE OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES PROVIDED FOR IN THIS SECTION REPRESENT A REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF THE DAMAGES WHICH SELLER WILL INCUR AS A RESULT OF SUCH FAILURE, AND SELLER'S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY AGAINST BUYER AND ANY BUYER RELATED PARTY IN THE EVENT OF FAILURE TO CLOSE RESULTING FROM BUYER'S DEFAULT SHALL BE LIMITED TO SUCH AMOUNT AND SELLER SHALL HAVE NO RIGHT TO ANY ACTION FOR SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE OF ANY PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT. IN CONSIDERATION OF THE PAYMENT OF LIQUIDATED DAMAGES PURSUANT TO THIS SECTION, SELLER WILL BE DEEMED TO HAVE WAIVED ALL OTHER CLAIMS FOR DAMAGES OR RELIEF AT LAW OR IN EQUITY. THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE PAYMENT OF SUCH LIQUIDATED DAMAGES IS NOT INTENDED AS A FORFEITURE OR PENALTY BUT IS INTENDED TO CONSTITUTE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES TO SELLER.

Section 14.05. Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided that no party may assign, delegate or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the consent of each other party hereto; except that Buyer may transfer or assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement, in whole or from time to time in part, to (i) one or more of its Affiliates at any time and (ii) after the Closing Date, to any Person; provided that no such transfer or assignment will relieve Buyer of its obligations hereunder or enlarge, alter or change any obligation of any other party hereto or due to Buyer.

Section 14.06. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of Delaware, without regard to the conflicts of law rules of such state.

Section 14.07. Jurisdiction.

such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Process in any such suit, action or proceeding may be served on any party anywhere in the world, whether within or without the jurisdiction of any such court. Without limiting the foregoing, each party agrees that service of process on such party as provided in Section 14.01 shall be deemed effective service of process on such party.

Section 14.08. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

Section 14.09. Counterparts; Effectiveness; Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. This Agreement shall become effective when each party hereto shall have received a counterpart hereof signed by all of the other parties hereto. Until and unless each party has received a counterpart hereof signed by the other party hereto, this Agreement shall have no effect and no party shall have any right or obligation hereunder (whether by virtue of any other oral or written agreement or other communication). No provision of this Agreement is intended to confer any rights, benefits, remedies, obligations or liabilities hereunder upon any Person other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

Section 14.10. Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents constitute the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both oral and written, between the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement.

Section 14.11. Bulk Sales Laws. Buyer and Seller each hereby waive compliance by Seller with the provisions of the “bulk sales,” “bulk transfer” or similar laws of any state. Seller agrees to indemnify and hold Buyer harmless against any and all Damages incurred or suffered by Buyer or any of its Affiliates as a result of any failure to comply with any such “bulk sales,” “bulk transfer” or similar laws.

Section 14.12. Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such a determination, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

Section 14.13. Specific Performance. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur if any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with the terms hereof and that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement or to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions hereof, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to the Closing, Seller shall not be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement by Buyer or any remedy to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement and that Seller’s sole and exclusive remedies with respect to any such breach shall be the remedies set forth in Section 14.04.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed by their respective authorized officers as of the day and year first above written.

the Transaction, and for appropriate reserves as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors) shall be distributed in accordance with the Waterfall Spreadsheet; and be it further

RESOLVED, that the officers of the Company are hereby authorized to do or cause to be done any and all such acts and things necessary to execute and deliver any and all such further documents and papers as, with the advice of counsel, they deem necessary or appropriate to carry into effect the full intent and purposes of the foregoing resolutions, for and on behalf and in the name of Company; and be it further

RESOLVED, that the officers of the Company are hereby authorized to engage all such counsel, accountants or others as may be desirable under the circumstances for the purposes of assisting in effectuating the foregoing resolutions; and be it further

RESOLVED, that to the extent the Company has performed certain actions or things to effectuate the purposes of the foregoing resolutions, the doing of such actions or things are hereby ratified, approved, confirmed and adopted.

EQUITYHOLDER SUPPORT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of March 25, 2014, among UCP, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Buyer”), Citizens Homes, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Seller”) and the holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and Series A-1 Convertible Preferred Stock of Seller listed on Annex I hereto (each, an “Equityholder” and, collectively, the “Equityholders”).

WHEREAS, the Seller and Buyer propose to enter into a Purchase and Sale Agreement dated as of the date hereof (as amended from time to time, the “Purchase and Sale Agreement”) pursuant to which Buyer and its designated Subsidiaries will purchase the Purchased Assets from Seller (the “Asset Purchase”);

WHEREAS, each Equityholder owns the number of shares of each class of capital stock of the Seller (“Seller Stock”) set forth opposite its name on Annex I hereto (such shares of Seller Stock, the “Subject Shares” of such Equityholder); and

WHEREAS, as a condition to its willingness to enter into the Purchase and Sale Agreement, Buyer has requested that each Equityholder enter into this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties to this Agreement, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

SECTION 2. Waiver; Release; and Covenant Not to Sue.

(a)Waiver of Released Claims. With effect from and after the Closing, each Equityholder and each of its respective past and present agents, representatives, employees, officers, directors, managers, Affiliates, controlling persons, shareholders, members, partners, predecessors, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Releasing Persons”), hereby fully releases and forever discharges, to the fullest extent permitted by law, Buyer, the Seller, each of their respective Subsidiaries and each of their respective past, present and future agents, representatives, employees, officers, directors, managers, Affiliates, controlling persons, shareholders, members, partners, predecessors, successors and assigns (including, without limitation, Antonio B. Mon, Scott K. Thorson, Ralph R. Teal, Jr., H. Gilford Edwards, Keith Hinson, David Hughes, and each of their heirs, successors and assigns) (collectively, the “Released Persons”) from any and all rights, claims, demands, actions, causes of action, judgments, obligations, contracts, agreements, debts and liabilities whatsoever, whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, both at law and in equity (including any right, whether arising at law or in equity, to seek indemnification, contribution, cost recovery, damages, or any

other recourse or remedy, including as may arise under common law) (collectively, the “Claims”) which any of the Releasing Persons or their respective successors and assigns now has, has ever had or may hereafter have against the respective Released Persons from any transaction, event, occurrence, action or inaction with respect to periods on or prior to the Closing on account of, arising out of, contemplated by, implied or alleged in, or relating in any way to (i) any Released Person’s relationship with the Seller on or prior to the Closing, (ii) any Releasing Person’s investment in Seller, or (iii) the operation of the Seller on or prior to the Closing and/or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase and Sale Agreement (the Claims referred to in this sentence, after taking into account the exclusion of the Claims referred to in the proviso to this sentence, the “Released Claims”); provided, however, that the Released Claims shall not include any claims for indemnification made by any such Equityholder (in his role as a an officer of Seller or as a member of Seller’s Board of Directors) that such Equityholder would otherwise have pursuant to a written agreement with Seller previously provided to Buyer and the articles of incorporation and bylaws of Seller. Each Equityholder hereby acknowledges that such Equityholder may hereafter discover facts other than or different from those that it knows or believes to be true with respect to the subject matter of the Released Claims, but, with effect from and after the Closing, such Equityholder hereby expressly waives and fully, finally and forever settles and releases any known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, asserted or unasserted, contingent or noncontingent claim with respect to the Released Claims, whether or not concealed or hidden, without regard to the subsequent discovery or existence of such different or additional facts. Without limitation of the foregoing, such Equityholder hereby waives the application of any provision of law, including, without limitation, California Civil Code Section 1542, that purports to limit the scope of a general release. Section 1542 of the California Civil Code provides: “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him would have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.”

(b)Covenant Not to Sue. With effect from and after the Closing, each Equityholder, on its behalf and on behalf of the applicable Releasing Persons, further agrees not to institute any litigation, lawsuit, claim or similar action or proceeding against any of the Released Persons with respect to any Released Claim.

(c)Effect of Release. Each Equityholder, on its behalf and on behalf of the applicable Releasing Persons, acknowledges and agrees that if such Equityholder or Releasing Person should hereafter make any claim or demand or commence or threaten to commence any action, claim or proceeding against any Released Person with respect to any Released Claim, this Section 2 may be raised as a complete bar to any such action, claim or proceeding, and the applicable Released Person may recover from such Equityholder all costs incurred in connection with such action, claim or proceeding, including attorneys’ fees.

(d)Consultation. Each Equityholder acknowledges and agrees that (i) it has had ample opportunity to consult with its attorneys prior to execution of this Agreement and has done so and (ii) it has knowingly and voluntarily decided to sign and enter into this Agreement.

SECTION 3. Representations and Warranties of Each Equityholder. Each Equityholder, severally and not jointly, hereby represents and warrants to Buyer, as of the date hereof and as of the Closing, that:

(i)If such Equityholder is a natural person, (A) such Equityholder has the legal capacity and has all requisite power and authority to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, and (B) if such Equityholder is married and the Subject Shares constitute community property under Applicable Laws, this Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by, and constitutes the valid and binding agreement of, such Equityholder’s spouse. If this Agreement is being executed in a representative or fiduciary capacity, the Person signing this Agreement has full power and authority to enter into and perform this Agreement.

(ii)If such Equityholder is not a natural person, (A) such Equityholder has all requisite power and authority to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, (B) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of such Equityholder, and

(C) this Agreement constitutes the valid and binding obligation of such Equityholder, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be subject to applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, moratorium and similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity.

(b)Governmental Authorization. No consent, waiver, approval, order or authorization of, or registration, declaration or filing with, or notice to, any Governmental Authority, is required by or with respect to such Equityholder in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement by such Equityholder or the consummation by such Equityholder of the transactions contemplated hereby, except for such filings, authorizations, consents and approvals that if not obtained or made would not have a material and adverse effect on the ability of such Equityholder to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(c)Non-contravention. The execution and delivery by such Equityholder of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, does not conflict with or result in any violation of or default under (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both) or give rise to a right of termination, cancellation, modification or acceleration of any obligation or loss of any benefit under (i) if such Equityholder is not a natural person, any provision of the certificate of incorporation, by-laws or comparable organizational documents of such Equityholder, (ii) any material contract to which such Equityholder is a party or to which it or any of its properties or assets (whether tangible or intangible) is subject or bound, or (iii) any Applicable Law except, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii), for such conflicts, violations or defaults as would not individually or in the aggregate reasonably be expected to have a material and adverse effect on the ability of such Equityholder to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(d)Ownership of Seller Stock. Such Equityholder is the record and beneficial owner of such Equityholder’s Subject Shares, and owns such Subject Shares, free and clear of any Lien or restriction on the right to vote, sell or otherwise dispose of the Subject Shares.

SECTION 4. Termination. This Agreement and all rights and obligations hereunder shall terminate upon the earlier to occur of (a) the Closing and (b) the termination of the Purchase and Sale Agreement in accordance with its terms; provided that (i) Sections 2, 5(d) and 5(d) shall survive any termination of this Agreement pursuant to clause (a) above, and Sections 4 and 6 shall survive any termination of this Agreement, and (ii) nothing herein shall relieve any party from liability for any fraudulent or willful and bad faith breach of this Agreement.

(a)Each party shall, from time to time, execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, such additional or further consents, documents and other instruments as may be required for the purpose of effectively carrying out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(b)No person executing this Agreement who is or becomes during the term hereof a director or officer of the Seller makes any agreement or understanding herein in his or her capacity as a director or officer of the Seller. Each Equityholder signs solely in his, her or its capacity as the record holder and beneficial owner of, or the trustee of a trust whose beneficiaries are the beneficial owners of, such Equityholder’s Subject Shares and nothing in this Agreement shall limit or affect any actions taken by any Equityholder in his capacity as an officer or director of the Seller to the extent not otherwise prohibited by the Purchase and Sale Agreement.

(c)In the event that any Equityholder acquires record or beneficial ownership of, or the power to vote or direct the voting of, any additional voting interest with respect to the Seller, such voting interests shall, without further action of the parties, be subject to the provisions of this Agreement, and the number of Subject Shares set forth on the signature page hereto will be deemed amended accordingly. Such Equityholder shall promptly notify Buyer of any such event.

(d)Each Equityholder agrees that it will not (i) bring, commence, institute, maintain, prosecute, participate in or voluntarily aid any action, claim, suit or cause of action, in law or in equity, in any court or before any governmental entity (an “Action”), which challenges the validity of or seeks to enjoin the operation of any provision of this Agreement or (ii) bring or commence any Action that alleges that the execution and delivery of this Agreement by such Equityholder, or the approval of the Purchase and Sale Agreement by the Board of Directors of the Seller, breaches any fiduciary duty of the Board of Directors of the Seller or any member thereof.

(e)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in no event shall any Equityholder have any responsibility or liability whatsoever relating to any breach by any other Equityholder of any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation contained in this Agreement.

SECTION 6. General Provisions.

(a)Amendments and Waivers. Any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed, in the case of an amendment, by each party to this Agreement, or in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom the waiver is to be effective. No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given and received if properly addressed (i) if delivered personally, by commercial delivery service or by facsimile (with acknowledgment of a complete transmission), on the day of delivery, or (ii) if delivered by internationally recognized courier (appropriately marked for next day delivery), one Business Day after sending, or (iii) if delivered by first class, registered or certified mail (return receipt requested), three Business Days after mailing.

(g)Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement shall be assigned, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise, by Buyer without the prior written consent of each Equityholder or by any Equityholder without the prior written consent of Buyer, and any purported assignment without such consent shall be void. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer may transfer or assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement, in whole or from time to time in part, to (i) one or more of its Affiliates at any time and (ii) after the Closing, to any Person; provided that no such transfer or assignment shall relieve Buyer of its obligations hereunder. Subject to the preceding sentences, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties and their respective successors and assigns.

(h)No Ownership Interest. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to vest in Buyer any direct or indirect ownership or incidence of ownership of or with respect to the Subject Shares.

(i)Enforcement. Unless otherwise explicitly provided in this Agreement, any action, claim, suit or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of any provision of this Agreement shall be brought or otherwise commenced in the Delaware Chancery Court or, if such court shall not have jurisdiction, any federal court located in the State of Delaware or other Delaware state court. Each party hereto irrevocably consents to the jurisdiction of such courts (and of the appropriate appellate courts therefrom) in any such suit, action or proceeding and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding in any such court or that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Process in any such suit, action or proceeding may be served on any party anywhere in the world, whether within or without the jurisdiction of any such court. Without limiting the foregoing, each party agrees that service of process on such party as provided in Section 6(b) shall be deemed effective service of process on such party

(j)Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY THAT MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY RELATED AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE IT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY RELATED AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.

(k)Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement will continue in full force and effect and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances will be interpreted so as reasonably to effect the intent of the parties hereto. The parties further agree to replace such void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that will achieve, to the greatest extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such void or unenforceable provision.

(l)Specific Performance. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any court of the United States or any state having jurisdiction, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.

(m)Public Disclosure. Except as contemplated by the Purchase and Sale Agreement, no public disclosure (whether or not in response to an inquiry) of the subject matter of this Agreement or the Purchase and Sale Agreement shall be made by any Equityholder, nor shall any Equityholder permit any of its Representatives to make any such disclosure, unless approved by Buyer prior to release.
