 NOW THEREFORE, in
consideration of the mutual covenants of the parties as hereinafter set forth and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which hereby are acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows: 

ARTICLE 1 
 BASIC TRANSACTION 
 1.1
Agreement to Purchase and Sell the Shares. At Closing, Buyer shall purchase from Sellers, and Sellers shall sell, convey, assign, transfer and deliver to Buyer, on the terms and subject to the








 
conditions contained in this Agreement, the Shares, free and clear of all Liens of any kind or nature. At Closing, Sellers shall deliver to Buyer certificates evidencing the Shares, duly endorsed
or with duly endorsed stock powers in favor of Buyer. 
 1.2 Cancellation of Company Options. Effective as of the
Closing, each stock option that is outstanding immediately prior to the Closing (each, a “Company Option,” and collectively, the “Company Options”) granted under any Company Stock Plan, without regard
to the extent then vested and exercisable, shall be terminated and, in consideration of such termination, Buyer shall, or shall cause the Company to, at Closing, pay to each holder of Company Options, an amount in respect thereof equal to the amount
specified next to each holder’s name on Schedule 1.2, which Schedule may be updated from time to time by Sellers no later than two (2) Business Days prior to Closing, such specified amounts to be gross of all Taxes that are
owed by the Company or the holder (the “Option Cancellation Payments”), and the payments actually made by the Company to each holder shall be net of the Company’s portion of all employment, FICA and related Taxes as well
as any required withholdings that the Company is required to make with respect to the holder. No Option Cancellation Payment shall be made to any holder pursuant to this Section 1.2 unless the holder executes, delivers and
continues to comply with an Option Termination Agreement substantially in the form attached as Exhibit A (an “Option Termination Agreement”). As of the Closing, all Company Options shall no longer be outstanding
and shall automatically terminate and cease to exist, and each holder of a Company Option shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto other than the right to receive the cash payment, if any, contemplated by this
Section 1.2. 
 ARTICLE 2 

CONSIDERATION AND MANNER OF PAYMENT 

2.1 Purchase Price. The aggregate purchase price for the Shares (the “Purchase Price”) is an amount
equal to (i) $200,000,000, (ii) minus the amount set forth on Schedule 2.1(a), which may be updated from time to time by Sellers prior to Closing (the “Closing Indebtedness Amount”),
(iii) minus the amount of the Option Cancellation Payments, (iv) minus the amount set forth on Schedule 2.1(b), which may be updated from time to time by Sellers prior to Closing (the
“Change-in-Control Payments”), (v) minus the aggregate amount of the Seller Transaction Expenses (the “Seller Transaction Expenses Amount”), (vi) plus an amount equal to the
positive Estimated Adjustment or minus an amount equal to the negative Estimated Adjustment, as the case may be, (vii) plus an amount equal to the value of the outstanding German letters of credit as of Closing identified as
Item 2 on Schedule 2.2(a), which schedule may be updated from time to time by Sellers prior to Closing, and (viii) plus an amount of Cash to remain with the Company at the Closing, which amount shall be mutually agreed
between Buyer and Sellers taking into account the Company’s historical cash needs for normal operations. The Purchase Price shall be subject to adjustment post-Closing as set forth in Section 2.3. The Purchase Price shall be
allocated between Sellers as set forth on Schedule 2.1(c) (the relative allocation among the Sellers being their respective “Allocable Percentage”), which may be updated from time to time by Sellers prior to
Closing. For purposes of the foregoing clause (vii), such amount shall be equal to the United States dollar equivalent (using the Exchange Rate) of the Euro balances 

  
 2 








 
contained in the Subsidiaries’ bank accounts supporting such letters of credit (assuming for this purpose that such accounts continue to maintain balances in accordance with the requirements
of such letters of credit). 
 2.2 Payment of Purchase Price and Other Closing Payments. 

(a) Taking into account the Closing payments to be made by Buyer pursuant to Section 2.2(b), the
Company shall be transferred free of Indebtedness and Cash at Closing except as otherwise specified herein, and all Indebtedness shall be repaid at or prior to Closing with the exception of Indebtedness listed on Schedule 2.2(a), which
shall remain outstanding and continue as an obligation of the Company or its Subsidiaries. With respect to the letters of credit set forth in Item 1 on Schedule 2.2(a), Buyer shall, at the Closing, either (i) provide cash
collateral to the issuer of such letters of credit in support of such letters of credit or (ii) arrange for a new letter(s) of credit to support such letters, in either case, in order to permit the Company’s credit facility with Bank of
Montreal to be terminated as of the Closing. 
 (b) Buyer shall deposit with KeyBank, N.A., as escrow agent (the
“Escrow Agent”), pursuant to an Escrow Agreement by and among Buyer, Sellers, the Escrow Agent and the Persons receiving Option Cancellation Payments substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the
“Escrow Agreement”), (i) an amount equal to $5,000,000 (the “General Escrow Amount”) as a source for the payment and discharge of any indemnification obligations owed to any Buyer Indemnified
Party as set forth herein, and (ii) an amount equal to $500,000 (the “Working Capital Escrow Amount”) as a source for the payment and discharge of any adjustments to the Purchase Price payable to Buyer pursuant to
Section 2.3(f), to be disbursed as and to the extent provided in the Escrow Agreement. The General Escrow Amount and the Working Capital Escrow Amount shall include the amounts withheld from the Option Cancellation Payments
pursuant to the Option Termination Agreements (the “Option Holder Escrow Funds”). 
 (c)
Buyer shall pay to Sellers at Closing an amount equal to the Purchase Price less an amount equal to the difference between (i) the sum of the General Escrow Amount plus the Working Capital Escrow Amount, and (ii) the Option Holder Escrow
Funds, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by each Seller. 
 (d) At
Closing, Buyer shall cause the Company to pay to (i) each Person identified on Schedule 1.2 who has signed, delivered to the Company and is in compliance with an Option Termination Agreement the amount specified next to such
Person’s name therein by check or wire transfer of immediately available funds, less all Taxes required to be deducted and withheld by the Company with respect to amounts payable under the Option Termination Agreements and less
the applicable Option Holder Escrow Funds; (ii) the Closing Indebtedness Amount to the Persons designated on Schedule 2.1(a); (iii) the Change-in-Control Payments to the Persons designated on Schedule 2.1(b),
less all Taxes required to be deducted and withheld by the Company with respect to amounts payable thereunder; and (iv) the Seller Transaction Expenses Amount to the Persons designated on Schedule 2.2(d), which Persons may
be updated from time to time by Sellers prior to Closing. None of the foregoing payments shall be deemed to be consideration to Sellers for the Shares.

 2.3 Working Capital Purchase Price Adjustment. The Purchase Price shall be
subject to adjustment as follows: 
 (a) Working Capital Collar Amounts. If the Operating Working
Capital as of the Closing Date (as determined in the final Closing Statement, as defined below) (the “Closing Operating Working Capital”) is greater than $3,616,000 (the “Upper Collar Amount”), the
Purchase Price will be increased by an amount equal to (i) the amount of the Closing Operating Working Capital, less (ii) the Upper Collar Amount (the “Purchase Price Increase Amount”). If the Closing
Operating Working Capital is less than $3,272,000 (the “Lower Collar Amount”), the Purchase Price will be decreased by an amount equal to (i) the Lower Collar Amount, less (ii) the Closing Operating Working
Capital (the “Purchase Price Decrease Amount”). If the Closing Operating Working Capital is between the Upper Collar Amount and the Lower Collar Amount (the “Working Capital Collar”), then there shall
be no Purchase Price adjustment. 
 (b) Calculation of Estimated Closing Operating Working Capital.
At least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Sellers will deliver to Buyer an estimate of the Closing Operating Working Capital (the “Estimated Closing Operating Working Capital”). The Estimated Closing
Operating Working Capital shall be accompanied by reasonable supporting documentation, and shall be prepared in a manner consistent with the example working capital calculation attached hereto as Schedule 2.3(b) (the
“Example Working Capital Calculation”) and the line items, adjustments, accounting principles and practices referred to therein. Buyer shall have the right to review the Estimated Closing Operating Working Capital and such
supporting documentation or data of the Company and its Subsidiaries as Buyer may reasonably request. If Buyer does not agree with the Estimated Closing Operating Working Capital, Sellers and Buyer shall negotiate in good faith to mutually agree on
an acceptable Estimated Closing Operating Working Capital, and Sellers shall consider in good faith any proposed comments or changes that Buyer may reasonably suggest; provided, however, that the failure to include in the Estimated Closing
Operating Working Capital any changes proposed by Buyer, or the acceptance by Buyer of the Estimated Closing Operating Working Capital, or the consummation of the Closing, shall not limit or otherwise affect Buyer’s remedies under this
Agreement, including Buyer’s right to include such changes or other changes in the Closing Statement (as hereinafter defined), or constitute an acknowledgment by Buyer of the accuracy of the Estimated Closing Operating Working Capital;
provided, further, that the failure of Buyer and Sellers to reach such mutual agreement shall not give any party the right to terminate this Agreement or otherwise fail to close the transactions contemplated hereunder. The Estimated Closing
Operating Working Capital as agreed to by Sellers and Buyer or, if Sellers and Buyer fail to reach agreement, as delivered by Sellers, shall be the figure used for purposes of determining the Estimated Adjustment (as defined below). 

(c) Estimated Adjustment at Closing. At Closing, but subject to final adjustment post-Closing pursuant to
Section 2.3(f), the Purchase Price shall be increased by the amount, if any, that the Estimated Closing Operating Working Capital exceeds the Upper Collar Amount, or decreased by the amount, if any, that the Lower Collar Amount
exceeds the Estimated Closing Operating Working Capital (any such difference, the “Estimated Adjustment”). If the Estimated Closing Operating Working Capital is within the Working Capital Collar, no Estimated Adjustment to
the Purchase Price shall be made. 

  
 4 








 (d) Preparation of Closing Statement. As promptly as possible,
but in any event within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, Buyer will deliver to Sellers its calculation of the Closing Operating Working Capital (the “Closing Statement”). The Closing Statement shall be accompanied
by reasonable supporting documentation and shall be prepared in a manner consistent with the Example Working Capital Calculation and the line items, adjustments, accounting principles and practices referred to therein. 

(e) Review of Closing Statement. Buyer will, and will cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to,
(i) provide Sellers and their respective representatives with reasonable access during normal business hours to the books, records (including work papers, schedules, memoranda and other documents), supporting data, facilities and employees of
the Company and its Subsidiaries responsible for the preparation of the Closing Statement for purposes of their review of the Closing Statement, and (ii) cooperate in all reasonable respects with Sellers and their respective representatives in
connection with such review, including providing on a timely basis all other information necessary in connection with the review of the Closing Statement as is reasonably requested by Sellers or their respective representatives. If Sellers have any
objections to the Closing Statement, Sellers will deliver to Buyer a statement setting forth their objections thereto (an “Objections Statement”), which statement will identify in reasonable detail those items and amounts to
which Sellers object (the “Disputed Items”). If an Objections Statement is not delivered to Buyer within sixty (60) days after delivery of the Closing Statement, the Closing Statement as prepared by Buyer will be final,
binding and non-appealable by the parties; provided that, in the event Buyer, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries does not provide any papers or documents reasonably requested by the Sellers or any of their authorized representatives
within five (5) days of request therefor (or such shorter period as may remain in such 60-day period), such 60-day period will be extended by one (1) day for each additional day required for Buyer, the Company or one of its Subsidiaries to
fully respond to such request. Sellers and Buyer will negotiate in good faith to resolve the Disputed Items, but if they do not reach a final resolution within thirty (30) days after the delivery of the Objections Statement to Buyer, Sellers or
Buyer may submit, within ten (10) days after the expiration of the 30-day period and with a copy of such submission to the other party, any unresolved Disputed Items to KPMG LLP (the “Accounting Firm”). In the event the
parties submit any unresolved Disputed Items to the Accounting Firm, each party will submit a Closing Statement (which in the case of each party may be a Closing Statement that, with respect to the unresolved Disputed Items (but not, for the
avoidance of doubt, with respect to any other items), is different than the Closing Statement initially submitted to Sellers, or the Objections Statement delivered to Buyer, as applicable) together with such supporting documentation as it deems
appropriate, to the Accounting Firm, with a copy to the other party, within thirty (30) days after the date on which such unresolved Disputed Items were submitted to the Accounting Firm for resolution. Sellers and Buyer will each be entitled to
meet with the Accounting Firm and will use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Accounting Firm to resolve such dispute as soon as practicable, but in any event within thirty (30) days after the date on which the
Accounting Firm receives the Closing Statements prepared by Sellers and Buyer. The Accounting Firm shall review only the unresolved Disputed Items and will resolve such items by issuing a written ruling, which shall include a revised balance sheet
consistent with the principles stated in Section 2.3(d) and setting forth the Accounting Firm’s calculation of Closing Operating

Working Capital (provided that the Accounting Firm’s resolution of each unresolved Disputed Item shall consist of the determination of an appropriate value for each such item, which value
shall be equal to one of, or between, the values proposed in the Closing Statement submitted by Buyer to the Accounting Firm and in the Closing Statement submitted by Sellers to the Accounting Firm). Sellers and Buyer will use their respective
commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Accounting Firm to notify them in writing of its resolution of such dispute as soon as practicable. The Closing Statement rendered by the Accounting Firm will be final, binding and non-appealable by the
parties. Each party will bear its own costs and expenses in connection with the resolution of such dispute by the Accounting Firm. Buyer shall bear a portion of the costs and expenses of the Accounting Firm determined by multiplying the total such
costs and expenses by a fraction, the numerator of which is equal to the aggregate dollar amount of the unresolved Disputed Items submitted to the Accounting Firm that are resolved by the Accounting Firm in Sellers’ favor, and the denominator
of which is the aggregate dollar amount of such unresolved Disputed Items. Sellers shall bear the balance of such costs and expenses. 
 (f) Final Purchase Price Adjustments Based on Closing Statement. Within ten (10) Business Days of the date that the Closing Statement is declared final pursuant to
Section 2.3(e) (the “Closing Statement Date”), the following adjustments (if any) to the Purchase Price shall be made: 

(i) In the event that the Closing Operating Working Capital determined in the Closing Statement results in a Purchase
Price increase pursuant to Section 2.3(a), then: 
 (A) if there was a positive Estimated
Adjustment at Closing by way of an increase in the Purchase Price, and the Purchase Price Increase Amount exceeds such positive Estimated Adjustment, then the Buyer shall pay to the Sellers an amount equal to the difference between the Purchase
Price Increase Amount and such positive Estimated Adjustment; or 
 (B) if there was a positive Estimated
Adjustment at Closing by way of an increase in the Purchase Price, but such positive Estimated Adjustment exceeds the Purchase Price Increase Amount, the Sellers shall pay the Buyer an amount equal to the difference between such positive Estimated
Adjustment and the Purchase Price Increase Amount; or 
 (C) if there was no Estimated Adjustment at Closing,

 (h) Each Employee Benefit Plan
intended to be a “qualified plan” within the 

  
 20 









 
meaning of Section 401(a) of the Code is so qualified and each related trust is exempt from taxation, and there are no facts or circumstances that could reasonably be expected to cause the
loss of such qualification or exemption.

unilaterally by the Company or a Subsidiary, as applicable, at any time without liability to the Company or any Subsidiary (other than for benefits accrued through the date of termination or amendment and reasonable administrative expenses related
thereto), and no Employee Benefit Plan, plan documentation or agreement, summary plan description or other written communication distributed generally to employees by its terms prohibits the Company or any Subsidiary from amending or terminating any
such Employee Benefit Plan. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.17(j), the investment vehicles used to fund the Employee Benefit Plans may be changed at any time without incurring a sales charge, surrender fee or other similar expense.

 (k) Except as set forth on Schedule 3.17(k), neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is a party

which any Person may receive payments from the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that may be subject to the tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code or deemed to be a “parachute payment” under Section 280G of the Code, or
(iii) agreement or plan binding the Company or any Subsidiary, including any stock option plan, stock appreciation right plan, restricted stock plan, stock purchase plan, other equity or equity-based award plan or severance benefit plan, any of
the benefits of which shall be increased, or the vesting of the benefits of which shall be accelerated, by the occurrence of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the value of any of the benefits of which shall be calculated on
the basis of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 
 (l) With respect to each Employee Benefit
Plan that is a “nonqualified deferred compensation plan” within the meaning of Section 409A(d)(1) of the Code and is subject to Section 409A of the Code, (i) the written terms of such Employee Benefit Plan have at all times

 5.8 Consents; HSR and

foregoing, Sellers, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, shall (i) within five (5) Business Days after the Effective Date make the filings required of them or any of their Affiliates under the HSR Act in respect of the

connection therewith) and in connection with resolving any investigation or other inquiry of any Government Body under any Antitrust Laws with respect to any such filing or any such transaction. Each party shall use its commercially reasonable
efforts to furnish to each other all information required for any application or other filing to be made pursuant to any applicable Rules in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each party shall promptly inform the other
parties hereto of any oral communication with, and provide copies of written communications with, any Government Body regarding any such filings or any such transaction. No party hereto shall independently participate in any formal meeting with any

connection with any analyses, appearances, presentations, memoranda, briefs, arguments, opinions and proposals made or submitted by or on behalf of any party hereto relating to proceedings under the HSR Act or other Antitrust Laws. Any party may, as
it deems advisable and necessary, reasonably designate any competitively sensitive material provided to the other parties under this section as “outside counsel only.” Such materials and the information contained therein shall be given
only to the outside legal counsel of the recipient and, to the extent not inconsistent with such counsel’s ethical obligations under applicable rules of professional conduct, will not be disclosed by such outside counsel to the recipient or to
employees, officers, or directors of the recipient, unless express written permission is obtained in advance from the source of the materials. Any confidential information disclosed between the parties pursuant to this Section 5.8 shall be held
in strict confidence, except to the extent disclosure is required by applicable Rules. 
 5.9 Supplements to Disclosure
Schedules. From time to time prior to the Closing, Sellers will have the right (but not the obligation) to supplement or amend the Schedules hereto with respect to any matter arising after the date hereof that, if existing on the date of
this Agreement, would have been required to be set forth in the Schedules (a “Schedule Supplement”). In the event that Sellers provide a Schedule Supplement pursuant to this Section 5.9 and concurrently
with the delivery of such Schedule Supplement, Sellers acknowledge in writing that Buyer has the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 6.2 (a) as a result of the disclosure set forth in such Schedule
Supplement, then unless Buyer terminates this Agreement within five (5) days of receipt of such Schedule Supplement, Buyer shall be deemed to have irrevocably waived any right to terminate this Agreement with respect to such matter under any of
the conditions set forth in Section 6.2(a) and further, such Schedule Supplement shall be deemed to be incorporated into and to supplement and amend the Schedules as of the Closing Date, the Schedule Supplement shall not
constitute a breach of this Agreement by Sellers and all representations and warranties made herein shall be deemed to have been made with respect to the Schedules as so modified and supplemented, and Buyer shall have irrevocably waived its right to
indemnification under Section 8.2(a) with respect to such matter set forth in such Schedule Supplement. For the avoidance of doubt, no Schedule Supplement shall contain any matter that existed as of the date of this Agreement,
whether or not known to the Company or the Sellers.

Agreement (within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2)(A)(i) of the Code) to the extent necessary so that no payment received by such “disqualified individual” shall be a “parachute payment” under Section 280G(b) of the
Code. Sellers shall cause the Company to obtain any required waivers, consents or agreements from the disqualified individual prior to the Stockholder Vote to comply with Section 280G of the Code. At least three (3) Business Days prior to
providing the stockholders 

  
 31 









 
with any material necessary to comply with the Stockholder Vote, Buyer and its counsel shall be given the right to review and comment on all disclosure documents related to the Stockholder Vote.
The Company shall incorporate into such documents any reasonable comments that are timely provided by Buyer. Buyer and its counsel shall be provided copies of all documents executed by the stockholders and disqualified individuals in connection with
the vote. 
 5.11 Director and Officer Liability and Indemnification. Prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall
purchase from an insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating as the Company’s current insurance carrier with respect to directors’ or officers’ liability insurance a prepaid insurance policy (i.e., “tail
coverage”) which provides liability insurance coverage for the individuals who were officers, directors and similar functionaries of the Company and its Subsidiaries at or prior to the Closing Date on no less favorable terms (including in
amount and scope) as the policy or policies presently maintained by the Company and the Subsidiaries for the benefit of such individuals for an aggregate period of not less than six (6) years with respect to claims arising from acts, events or
omissions that occurred at or prior to Closing, including with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The provisions of this Section 5.11 are intended for the benefit of, and will be enforceable by (as express
third party beneficiaries), each current and former officer, director or similar functionary of the Company and the Subsidiaries and his or her representatives, heirs, successors and assigns and are in addition to, and not in substitution for, any
other rights of indemnification or contribution that any such person may have had by contract or otherwise.

 36 









 
of or otherwise by virtue of any misrepresentation or breach of a representation or warranty made herein by Buyer under Article 4 hereof or non-compliance with or breach by Buyer of
any of the covenants or agreements contained in the Transaction Documents to be performed by Buyer. 
 (c)
Indemnification Procedure. 
 (i) Within ten (10) Business Days after receipt by a party
entitled to indemnification hereunder (the “Indemnified Party”) of written notice of the assertion or the commencement of any proceeding by a third party with respect to any matter referred to in
Sections 8.2(a) or 8.2(b), the Indemnified Party shall give written notice thereof to the party obligated to indemnify Indemnified Party (the “Indemnifying Party”), which notice shall include
a description of the proceeding, the amount thereof (if known and quantifiable) and the basis for the proceeding, and thereafter shall keep the Indemnifying Party reasonably informed with respect thereto. A claim for indemnification for any matter
not involving a third party proceeding may be asserted by notice to Indemnifying Party within ten (10) Business Days after the Indemnified Party becomes aware of the claim and shall be paid promptly (subject to the terms of the Escrow
Agreement) after (i) the Indemnifying Party’s receipt of such notice, or (ii) if the claim is disputed by the Indemnifying Party, within five (5) days after resolution of the dispute. An Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to
participate in the defense of any third party action, lawsuit, proceeding, investigation or other claim giving rise to an Indemnified Party’s claim for indemnification at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, and at its option (subject to the
limitations set forth below and as set forth in Schedule 8.2(a)) shall, within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of notice of the claim from the Indemnified Party, be entitled to assume the defense thereof by appointing a
reputable counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party to be the lead counsel in connection with such defense; provided that the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such claim and to employ counsel
of its choice for such purpose; provided further that the fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be borne by the Indemnified Party (other than any fees and expenses of such separate counsel that are incurred between the date
Indemnified Party provides to the Indemnifying Party notice of the claim and the date the Indemnifying Party effectively assumes control of such defense which, notwithstanding the foregoing, shall be borne by the Indemnifying Party). In the event
Sellers are the Indemnifying Party and the claim for indemnification involves a claim against the Company or a Subsidiary, then the fees and expenses of counsel appointed by the Indemnifying Party under this Section shall be paid directly by the
Company or the applicable Subsidiary, and the Company and the Subsidiaries shall be entitled to periodic reimbursement of such paid fees and expenses from the General Escrow Amount. Sellers agree to deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow
Agent for such purpose. 
 (ii) Except as set forth on Schedule 8.2(a), the Indemnifying Party
shall not be entitled to assume control of such defense and shall pay the fees and expenses of counsel retained by the Indemnified Party if (1) the claim for indemnification relates to or arises in connection with any criminal or quasi-criminal
proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation; (2) the claim seeks an injunction or equitable relief against the Indemnified Party; (3) upon petition by the Indemnified Party, the appropriate court rules that the Indemnifying
Party failed or is failing to vigorously prosecute or defend such claim; or (4) in a case where Sellers are the Indemnifying Party, the amount of the claim is reasonably likely to result in the payment of Losses in excess of the then-remaining
Escrow Amount. If the Indemnifying Party 

  
 37 









 
controls the defense of any such claim, the Indemnifying Party shall obtain the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party before entering into any settlement of a claim or ceasing to defend
such claim if, pursuant to or as a result of such settlement or cessation, injunctive or other equitable relief will be imposed against the Indemnified Party or if such settlement does not expressly and unconditionally release the Indemnified Party
from all liabilities and obligations with respect to such claim, without prejudice. 
 (d) Survival of
Representations, Warranties, Covenants and Agreements. All representations and warranties of Buyer and Sellers shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Closing hereunder for a period of eighteen (18) months
following the Closing Date (the “Survival Period”); provided, however that any claim for indemnification based upon a breach of any such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement and asserted prior to the
expiration of the Survival Period in accordance with the terms hereof shall survive until final resolution of such claim; provided, further that the representations and warranties contained in Sections 3.1, 3.2,
3.3, 3.6, 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3 (the “Excluded Representations”) and the covenants shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Closing
hereunder for a period of sixty (60) months following the Closing Date. 
 (e) Limitations on
Indemnities. 
 (i) Threshold. Sellers shall not have any liability or obligation to the
Buyer Indemnified Parties under Section 8.2(a)(i) unless and until the amount of Losses, in the aggregate, accrued pursuant to Section 8.2(a)(i) is equal to or greater than $2,000,000 (the “Indemnity
Threshold”); provided, however that with respect to any individual item under Section 8.2(a)(i) without aggregation with any other related or similar item where the Loss relating to such item or
series of related items (excluding attorneys’ fees) is less than $10,000, such amounts shall not be taken into account for the purposes of determining the Indemnity Threshold. For purposes of determining the failure of any representations or
warranties to be true and correct, the breach of any covenants, and calculating Losses under this Article 8, any materiality or Material Adverse Effect qualifications in the representations and warranties shall be disregarded.
Once the aggregate amount of all Losses accrued pursuant to Section 8.2(a)(i) equal or exceed the Indemnity Threshold, Sellers shall be liable for only those Losses in excess of the Indemnity Threshold, subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement and up to the limitations of Section 8.2(e)(ii). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnity Threshold shall not apply to any Losses arising out of a breach of an Excluded Representation. Sellers
shall not have any liability or obligation to the Buyer Indemnified Parties for the Tax matters addressed as Covered Matters in Schedule 8.2(a) unless and until the amount of Losses, in the aggregate, pertaining to such Covered Matters
is equal to or greater than $100,000. Once the aggregate amount of all Losses pertaining to such Tax matters equals or exceeds $100,000, Sellers shall be liable for only those Losses in excess of $100,000, subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement and up to the limitations of Section 8.2(e)(ii). 
 (ii) Cap.
Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the maximum liability of Sellers to any Buyer Indemnified Party, in the aggregate, (A) under Section 8.2(a) for breaches of representations and warranties other than with
respect to the Excluded Representations shall be an amount equal to five percent (5%) of the Purchase Price, and (B) under Section 8.2(a) with respect to any other matter relating to, resulting from, arising out of or


  
 38 









 
otherwise by virtue of this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated herein shall be an amount equal to twenty percent (20%) of the Purchase Price (the “General Indemnity
Cap”). Once the aggregate amount of all Losses recovered by any Buyer Indemnified Party, in the aggregate, equals the General Indemnity Cap, then Buyer, on behalf of itself and the Buyer Indemnified Parties, shall release Sellers from
all Liabilities relating to, resulting from, arising out of or otherwise by virtue of this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated herein, other than claims based on fraud or claims for equitable relief. 

(iii) Cooperation. Upon reasonable request by the Indemnifying Party, each Indemnified Party seeking
indemnification hereunder hereby agrees (and agrees to cause its Affiliates, including the Company and the Subsidiaries if any of them is an Affiliate) to take all actions reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party in order to attempt to reduce
the amount of Losses incurred by the Indemnified Party, including, without limitation, pursuing any indemnification claim and remedy available to the Indemnified Party under either Acquisition Agreement. In the event a claim for indemnification by
an Indemnified Party against an Indemnifying Party hereunder relates to an occurrence or facts that would constitute a breach of a representation, warranty or covenant under either of the Acquisition Agreements, then the Indemnified Party shall
first pursue any claims and remedies against the indemnifying party(ies) under the applicable Acquisition Agreement to the extent provided thereunder, and the Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to recover its Losses first
from such indemnifying parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in connection with the submission of any claim for Losses under either Acquisition Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to submit a claim notice under this Article
8 in order to preserve such Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification hereunder. 
 (iv)
Insurance; Tax Benefits; Other Benefits. The amount of any Losses payable by an Indemnifying Party under this Article 8 shall be net of: (A) amounts received by the Indemnified Party under its applicable insurance
policies with respect to such Loss (determined after giving effect to any increase in premiums resulting therefrom and net of Taxes or other liabilities incurred by such Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates as a result of such claim and
out-of-pocket costs of collecting such insurance proceeds); (B) any Tax benefit that is actually realized by the Indemnified Party resulting from or arising from the incurrence or payment of any such Loss in the taxable year in which such Loss
occurs and the next taxable year; and (C) amounts received by the Indemnified Party from other sources as a result of actions taken pursuant to Section 8.2(e)(iii). An Indemnified Party will use commercially reasonable
efforts to pursue any available coverage under any available insurance policies maintained by such Indemnified Party and any available Tax benefit for any Losses otherwise subject to indemnity hereunder. If an Indemnified Party receives any amounts
under applicable insurance policies subsequent to its receipt of an indemnification payment by the Indemnifying Parties, then such Indemnified Party shall, without duplication, promptly reimburse the Indemnifying Parties for any payment made by such
Indemnifying Parties up to the amount received by the Indemnified Party, provided that the aggregate amount of reimbursement payments to the Indemnifying Parties in respect of any such Loss shall not in any event exceed the aggregate
indemnification payment received by the Indemnified Party from the Indemnifying Parties with respect to such Loss. For purposes of this Agreement, an Indemnified Party will be deemed to have realized a Tax benefit to the extent that the amount by
which the Taxes that would have 

  
 39 









 
been payable by the Indemnified Party ignoring any items of deduction, credit or loss generated by the event giving rise to the Loss exceeds the amount of Taxes paid by the Indemnified Party
taking into account any items of deduction, credit or loss generated by the event giving rise to the Loss, assuming that any such item of deduction, credit or loss is the last such item of deduction, credit or loss on any Tax Return. 

(v) Exclusive Remedy. The indemnification provided in this Article 8, subject to the
limitations set forth herein, shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedies of the Buyer Indemnified Parties and the Seller Indemnified Parties with respect to breach of the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements in this Agreement,
or based directly or indirectly on any rights or obligations established by this Agreement, whether any claims or causes of action asserted with respect to such matters are brought in contract, tort or any other legal theory whatsoever. In
furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Rule, any and all rights, claims and cause of action for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or
otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement it may have against the other parties hereto and their Affiliates and each of their respective Representatives arising under or based upon any Rule, except pursuant to the indemnification
provisions set forth in this Article 8. Nothing in this Section 8.2(e)(v) shall limit any Person’s right to seek and obtain any equitable relief to which any Person shall be entitled pursuant to
Section 9.12. The foregoing shall not be construed to impose any liability under this Agreement on Sellers in excess of the amounts set forth in Section 8.2(e)(ii). 

(vi) No Consequential Damages. In no event shall any Indemnifying Party be liable to any Indemnified Party
for diminution in value, multiples of earnings (but not lost profits) or any consequential damages which, for the purposes of this Agreement, are defined as those damages that arise solely from the special circumstances of the Indemnified Party that
have not been communicated to the Indemnifying Party. For the avoidance of doubt, in the case of punitive, consequential or any other damages (regardless of how classified) that are actually paid or payable to a third party, and for which an
Indemnified Party is entitled to recovery hereunder, such damages so paid or payable shall be deemed to be direct damages for purposes of this Agreement. 
 (f) Manner and Treatment of Indemnity Payments. Any indemnification of any Buyer Indemnified Party or any Seller Indemnified Party pursuant to this Article 8 shall be effected
by wire transfer of immediately available funds from Buyer or Sellers, as the case may be, to an account designated in writing by the applicable indemnified party within ten (10) days after the final determination thereof; provided, however,
that any indemnification of any Buyer Indemnified Party shall be satisfied first by a payment from the Escrow Funds (but only up to the amount of the General Escrow Amount) and then by payment from Sellers. Any payments made to an Indemnified Party
pursuant to this Section 8.2 shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes. 

8.3 Tax Matters. 
 (a) Access to Former Business Tax Documents. Buyer agrees to retain all Tax Returns, related schedules and workpapers, and all records and other documents relating thereto


  
 40 









 
(collectively, the “Tax Documents”) for taxable periods ending prior to or including the Closing until the later of (i) the expiration of the statute of limitations
(including extensions) of the taxable years to which such Tax Documents relate, or (ii) December 31, 2017. During such period, Buyer will afford duly authorized representatives of Sellers and appropriate tax auditors, reasonable access to all
such Tax Documents and will permit such representatives, at the expense of Sellers, to make copies of any such Tax Documents or to obtain temporary possession of any thereof as may be reasonably required by Sellers. 

(b) Tax Deductions. Buyer represents that the Company will be included as a member of an affiliated group of
which Buyer is a member for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and accordingly the taxable year of the Company shall close at 11:59 pm on the Closing Date for U.S. federal income tax purposes. For Tax purposes, to the extent allowed by law, Buyer and
Sellers agree to treat the payments giving rise to Tax Deductions as allocable to the portion of the Closing Date prior to Buyer’s acquisition of the Shares. Any Tax refunds that are received by Buyer, the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, or
any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, and any Tax credits that Buyer, the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, are utilized with respect to taxable periods or portions thereof ending on or before the Closing
Date (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any refunds or credits resulting from estimated Tax payments made by the Company or any Subsidiary prior to the Closing Date with respect to the period ending on the Closing Date) and are attributable to
Tax Deductions shall be for the account of Sellers, and Buyer shall pay over to Sellers any such refund or the amount of any such credit, net of any costs of receiving such refund or utilizing such credit and net of any Taxes resulting from the
receipt of such refund or the utilization of such credit, within ten (10) days after receipt or utilization thereof. In addition, if Buyer, the Company or any Subsidiary, or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, realizes any actual reduction
in its liability for Taxes with respect to any taxable period or portion thereof ending after the Closing Date resulting, directly or indirectly, from a Tax Deduction, Buyer shall pay the amount of such reduction to Sellers within ten (10) days
after realizing such reduction. For purposes of this Agreement the amount of any actual reduction in its liability for Taxes shall be the amount, if any, by which the Taxes that would have been payable by Buyer, the Company or any of the
Subsidiaries, or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, ignoring any items related to the Tax Deductions exceeds the amount of Taxes paid by Buyer, the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, taking into account
any items related to the Tax Deductions, assuming that any such item is the last such item on any Tax Return. Buyer shall be deemed to realize a reduction in its Taxes as of the date the Tax Return that reflects such reduction is filed. Buyer shall
prepare or cause to be prepared, at Sellers’ cost, in a manner consistent with the past practices of the Company and its Subsidiaries unless otherwise required by any Rule and in accordance with applicable Rules, all federal, state, local and
foreign (i) Tax Returns for the Company and each of the Subsidiaries with respect to period ending on the Closing Date, and (ii) amended Tax Returns for the Company and its Subsidiaries for periods ending prior to the Closing Date to the
extent the Tax Deductions create a refund due to a net operating loss carryback. Buyer shall deliver all such Tax Returns to Sellers for their review and comment at least thirty (30) days prior to the due date for any such Tax Return or the
filing of any amended Tax Return, as the case may be, in order to provide Seller with a reasonable period of time to review and comment on such Tax Return. Within ten (10) days of receiving any such Tax Return, Sellers shall provide to Buyer in
writing any comments to such Tax Return. The parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve any dispute with respect to such Tax Return. To the extent that the parties are unable to resolve any such dispute at least ten (10) days prior to the
due date for any such Tax 

  
 41 









 
Return, the parties shall refer the dispute to the Accounting Firm for resolution in accordance with the procedure set forth in Section 2.3. If the Accounting Firm is unable to resolve any
such dispute prior to the due date for such Tax Return, Buyer shall timely file such Tax Return as prepared by Buyer subject to amendment, if required, to reflect the resolution of the Accounting Firm. Buyer shall use its commercially reasonable
efforts to prepare, or cause the Company and the Subsidiaries to prepare, all such Tax Returns in a manner that maximizes the benefit of the Tax Deductions to Sellers as provided in this Section, subject to compliance with Rules governing the
deductibility of such amounts. 
 (c) Straddle Period. For purposes of this Agreement, the portion
of Tax with respect to the income, property or operations of the Company or any Subsidiary that is attributable to any Tax period that begins on or before the Closing Date and ends after the Closing Date (a “Straddle Period”)
will be apportioned between the period of the Straddle Period that extends before the Closing Date through the Closing Date (the “Pre-Closing Straddle Period”) and the period of the Straddle Period that extends from the day
after the Closing Date to the end of the Straddle Period (the “Post-Closing Straddle Period”) in accordance with this Section 8.3(c). The portion of such Tax attributable to the Pre-Closing Straddle Period
will (i) in the case of any Taxes other than sales or use taxes, value-added taxes, employment taxes, withholding taxes, and any Tax based on or measured by income, receipts or profits earned during a Straddle Period, be deemed to be the amount
of such Tax for the entire taxable period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the Pre-Closing Straddle Period and denominator of which is the number of days in the Straddle Period, and (ii) in the case of
any sales or use taxes, value-added taxes, employment taxes, withholding taxes, and any Tax based on or measured by income, receipts or profits earned during a Straddle Period, be deemed equal to the amount that would be payable if the Straddle
Period ended on and included the Closing Date. The portion of Tax attributable to a Post-Closing Straddle Period shall be calculated in a corresponding manner. To the extent that any Tax for a Straddle Period is based on the greater of a Tax on net
income, on the one hand, and a Tax measured by net worth or some other basis not otherwise measured by income, on the other hand, the portion of such Tax related to the Pre-Closing Straddle Period and the Post-Closing Straddle Period will be
determined based on the foregoing and based on the manner in which the actual Tax liability for the entire Straddle Period is determined. In the case of a Tax that is (i) paid for the privilege of doing business during a period (a
“Privilege Period”) and (ii) computed based on business activity occurring during an accounting period ending prior to such Privilege Period, any reference to a “Tax period,” a “tax period,” or a
“taxable period” shall mean such accounting period and not such Privilege Period. 
 (d) Transfer
Taxes. All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration, value added and other such Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) imposed on Buyer or the Company or any Subsidiary as a result of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement and (“Transfer Taxes”) will be borne and paid one-half by Buyer and one-half by Sellers when due, and Buyer, at the parties’ shared expense, will cause to be filed all necessary Tax Returns
and other documentation with respect to all such Transfer Taxes. 
 (e) Cooperation; Audits. In
connection with the preparation of Tax Returns, audit examinations, and any administrative or judicial proceedings relating to the Tax liabilities imposed on the Company or any Subsidiary, Buyer and the Company, on the one hand, and Sellers, on the
other hand, shall cooperate fully with each other, including, without limitation, the furnishing 

  
 42 









 
or making available during normal business hours of records, personnel (as reasonably required), books of account, or other materials necessary or helpful for the preparation of such Tax Returns,
the conduct of audit examinations or the defense of claims by Governmental Body as to the imposition of Taxes. 

(f) Certain Controversies. This Section 8.3(f) and not Section 8.2(c)
shall control any inquiry, assessment, proceeding or other similar event relating to Taxes of the Company or any Subsidiary. Sellers have the right to represent the interests of the Company or any Subsidiary before the relevant Governmental Body
with respect to any inquiry, assessment, proceeding or other similar event relating solely to any Pre-Closing Tax Period (a “Tax Matter”) and have the right to control the defense, compromise or other resolution of any such
Tax Matter, including responding to inquiries, preparing Tax Returns and contesting, defending against and resolving any assessment for additional Taxes or notice of Tax deficiency or other adjustment of Taxes of, or relating to, such Tax Matter;
provided, however, (i) Buyer has the right (but not the duty) to participate in the defense of such Tax Matter and to employ counsel, at its own expense, separate from counsel employed by Sellers, and (ii) Sellers shall not enter into any
settlement of or otherwise compromise any such Tax Matter without the prior written consent of Buyer, which consent shall not be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed. Buyer has the right to represent the interests of the Company or any
Subsidiary before the relevant Governmental Body with respect to any Tax Matter that does not relate solely to any Pre-Closing Tax Period and has the right to control the defense, compromise or other resolution of any such Tax Matter, including
responding to inquiries, filing Tax Returns and contesting, defending against and resolving any assessment for additional Taxes or notice of Tax deficiency or other adjustment of Taxes of, or relating to, such Tax Matter; provided, however,
(i) Sellers have the right (but not the duty) to participate in the defense of such Tax Matter and to employ counsel, at their own expense, separate from counsel employed by Buyer, and (ii) Buyer shall not enter into any settlement of or
otherwise compromise any such Tax Matter that affects the liability of Sellers pursuant to Section 8.2 without the prior written consent of Sellers, which consent shall not be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed.

 8.4 Employee Benefits. For the period beginning at the Closing and ending December 31, 2012, Buyer shall
cause the Company to provide benefits to employees of the Company and the Subsidiaries with terms and conditions that are substantially equivalent to those provided to such employees as of the Effective Date, including one or more defined
contribution plans that include a qualified cash or deferred arrangement within the meaning of Section 401(k) of the Code, an annual bonus program, commission arrangements, vacation leave, sick leave and holidays. Nothing contained herein,
express or implied: (i) shall be construed to establish, amend, or modify any benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement, (ii) shall alter or limit Buyer’s or the Company’s ability to amend, modify or terminate any benefit
plan, program, agreement or arrangement, (iii) constitute or create an employment agreement, or (iv) create any third-party beneficiary rights in any employee or former employee (including any beneficiary or dependent thereof) of the
Company, any Subsidiary or any other Person other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. 
 8.5 Release by Sellers. 

  
 43 









 (a) Effective as of Closing, each of the Sellers, on behalf of themselves
and their respective Affiliates, heirs, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Seller Related Persons”), hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably releases and discharges, fully, finally and forever, the Company,
the Subsidiaries, Buyer, and Buyer’s respective Affiliates, agents, representatives, directors, officers and employees (together, the “Buyer Released Parties”) from any and all claims, demands, rights, causes of action,
proceedings, orders, remedies, obligations, damages and liabilities of whatsoever kind or character arising as a result of any event or condition, or action or inaction of the Buyer Released Parties, from the beginning of time until Closing, whether
known or unknown, absolute or contingent, both at law and in equity, which such Seller Related Person ever had, now has, or ever may have, against any Buyer Released Party, including in any Seller Related Person’s capacity as a direct or
indirect equityholder of the Company or the Subsidiaries prior to Closing and pursuant to any Contract between any Seller Related Person and a Buyer Released Party (as to each Seller Related Person, such Seller Related Person’s
“Seller Related Person Claims”); provided, however, that Seller Related Person Claims shall not include any claims pursuant to this Agreement or any Transaction Documents. 

(b) No Seller has instituted, and will not institute, any Legal Proceeding against any Buyer Released Party with any
Governmental Authority or otherwise, based on events occurring on or prior to the Closing Date in relation to any matter released or purported to be released hereunder. No Seller has assigned, and will not assign, any Seller Related Person Claim and
has not authorized, and will not authorize, any other Person to assert any Seller Related Person Claim on its or their behalf. 
 (c) Each of the Sellers expressly acknowledges that the release provided under this Section 8.5 is intended to include in its effect all claims within the scope of this release that the
Sellers do not know or suspect to exist in their favor at the time of execution hereof, and that this release contemplates the extinguishment of any such claim or claims. 

(d) Each of the Sellers is aware that statutes exist that render null and void or otherwise affect or may affect releases
and discharges of any claims, rights, demands, Liabilities, Legal Proceedings and causes of action that are unknown to the releasing or discharging party at the time of execution of the release and discharge. Each of the Sellers, for itself and the
other Seller Related Persons, hereby expressly waives, surrenders and agrees to forego any and all protections, rights or benefits to which the Sellers otherwise would be entitled by virtue of the existence of any such statute or the common law of
any state, province or jurisdiction with the same or similar effect. Further, it is understood and agreed that the facts in respect of which the release provided under this Section 8.5 is given may turn out to be other than or
different from the facts in that respect now known or believed by the Sellers to be true; and with such understanding and agreement, each of the Sellers expressly accepts and assumes the risk of facts being other than or different from the
assumptions and perceptions as of any date prior to and including the Closing Date, and agrees that this release shall be in all respects effective and shall not be subject to termination or rescission by reason of any such difference in facts.


  
 44 









 (e) The release provided under this Section 8.5 shall
extend to and be binding upon each of the Sellers, and each such Person’s legal successors and assigns, and all other Seller Related Persons, and shall inure to the benefit of all of the Buyer Released Parties. 

Section 8.6. Non-Solicitation. 

(a) For a period of two (2) years from and after the Closing Date, no Seller shall, and each Seller shall cause its
Controlled Affiliates and its and their respective directors, officers and employees and representatives acting on their behalf not to, directly or indirectly 
 (i) solicit, induce or encourage any of the employees of the Company or any Subsidiary to leave their respective positions of employment with Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including the Company and the
Subsidiaries); or 
 (ii) hire, employ or otherwise engage any of such individuals, provided that the foregoing
restrictions with respect to the solicitation or hiring of Gary Edwards and David Hawkins shall expire on the six-month anniversary of the Closing Date. The covenants and undertakings contained in this Section 8.6 relate to
matters which are of a special, unique and extraordinary character and a violation of any of the terms of this Section 8.6 will cause irreparable injury to the Buyer, the amount of which will be impossible to estimate or determine
and which cannot be adequately compensated. Accordingly, the remedy at law for any breach of this Section 8.6 will be inadequate. Therefore, the Buyer will be entitled to a temporary and permanent injunction, restraining order or
other equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction in the event of any breach of this Section 8.6 without the necessity of proving actual damage or posting any bond whatsoever. The rights and remedies provided by this
Section 8.6 are cumulative and in addition to any other rights and remedies which the Buyer may have hereunder or at law or in equity. 
 (b) The parties hereto agree that, if any court of competent jurisdiction determines that a specified time period or any other relevant feature of Section 8.6(a) hereof is unreasonable, arbitrary or
against public policy, then a lesser period of time or other relevant feature which is determined by such court to be reasonable, not arbitrary and not against public policy may be enforced against the applicable party. 

(c) As used in this Agreement, “Controlled Affiliates” means any Person controlled by any Seller,
where “control” means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct the management and policies of a Person whether through the ownership of voting securities, contract or otherwise.
