 INVESTMENT AGREEMENT, dated as of August 20, 2008 (this “Agreement”),
between X-Rite, Incorporated, a Michigan corporation (the “Company”) and OEPX, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (together with any of its permitted assignees, the “Investor”). 
 RECITALS: 
 A. The Investment.
As of the date hereof, the Company has 100,000,000 authorized shares of common stock, $0.10 par value per share (“Common Stock”), of which, as of August 18, 2008, 29,605,684 shares were issued and outstanding. 
 B. The Issuance. The Company intends to issue Common Stock in a private placement, and the Investor intends to purchase from the Company the
number of shares of Common Stock as set forth below. The shares of Common Stock to be purchased by the Investor are herein called the “Purchased Securities”. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Transaction
Documents” refers collectively to this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement (as hereinafter defined), in each case as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time in accordance with their respective terms. 
 C. Institutional Investors. Simultaneously on the date hereof, Sagard Capital Partners, L.P. (“Sagard”), Tinicum Capital Partners
II, L.P., Tinicum Capital Partners II Parallel Fund, L.P., and Tinicum Capital Partners II Executive Fund, L.L.C. (collectively, Tinicum and together with Sagard, the “Institutional Investors”) and the Company are entering
into a purchase agreement, attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Institutional Investors’ Purchase Agreement”) for the sale, by the Company to such Institutional Investors, of such number of shares of Common Stock as specified in
Section 1.2(b)(i) thereof, for an aggregate purchase price no less than the purchase price specified in Section 1.2(b)(i) thereof (the shares of Common Stock to be purchased by the Institutional Investors are herein called the
“Institutional Investors’ Purchased Securities”). 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, and of
the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth herein, the parties agree as follows: 
 ARTICLE I 
 PURCHASE; CLOSINGS 
 1.1
Purchase. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, the Investor will purchase from the Company, and the Company will sell to the Investor, at the Closing (as hereinafter defined), the Purchased Securities for the Purchase
Price. 
 1.2 Closing. 
 (a) Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the closing of the purchase of the Purchased Securities by the Investor pursuant hereto (the “Closing”) shall occur at the offices of
Shearman & Sterling LLP located at 599 Lexington Avenue, New York, New York, as soon as practicable, but in no event later than the 








 
second business day after the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth herein (excluding conditions that, by their terms, cannot be satisfied until
the Closing); provided, that, at, prior to, or substantially simultaneous with the Closing, the Company and the Investor shall receive the written notice of the Administrative Agent (as defined the First Lien Forbearance Agreement) provided
for in the last paragraph of Section 6 of the First Lien Forbearance Agreement and the written notice of the Lead Arranger (as defined in the Second Lien Forbearance Agreement) provided for in the last paragraph of Section 6 of the Second
Lien Forbearance Agreement. The date of the Closing is referred to as the “Closing Date.” 
 (b) (i) Subject to the
satisfaction or waiver on the Closing Date of the applicable conditions to Closing in Section 1.2(c), at the Closing (i) the Investor will deliver to the Company $100,000,001.50 (the “Purchase Price”) and (ii) the
Company will deliver to the Investor certificates representing shares of Common Stock equal to the Purchase Price divided by $3.50. 
 (ii) If, on the Closing Date, the proceeds received from the Institutional Investors under the Institutional Investors’ Purchase Agreement are equal to or in excess of an amount of $25,000,000 but less than the full amount receivable
under the Institutional Investors’ Purchase Agreement from the sale of the Institutional Investors’ Purchased Securities (the difference between the full amount receivable under the Institutional Investors’ Purchase Agreement and the
amount actually received, the “Shortfall Amount”), the Company shall have the right, at the Company’s sole option (the “Shortfall Option”), exercisable by written notice delivered to the Investor on the Closing
Date, to require the Investor to purchase, at any time selected by the Investor within ten business days of the Closing Date (the “Option Closing Date”), additional shares of Common Stock (such additional shares of Common Stock
purchased by the Investor, “Additional Investor Stock”) for up to an aggregate amount of $10,000,000 at a price per share equal to $3.00; provided, that in no event shall the Company have the right to require Investor
to purchase Additional Investor Stock beyond a number of shares of Additional Investor Stock that would cause the product of (A) (x) the sum of (i) Purchased Securities, (ii) Additional Investor Stock and (iii) any Common
Stock owned by the Investor divided by (y) the sum of (i) Purchased Securities, (ii) Additional Investor Stock, (iii) Common Stock actually being purchased by the Institutional Investors and (iv) number of shares of Common
Stock outstanding immediately prior to the issuance of (I) the Purchased Securities, (II) the Additional Investor Stock and (III) the Common Stock actually being purchased by the Institutional Investors, and (B) one hundred, to be greater
than forty-three (43). After being notified of the Shortfall Amount, the Investor shall complete the purchase of the Additional Investor Stock on the Option Closing Date subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in
Section 1.2(c)(i) and Section 1.2(c)(ii) hereof which shall be deemed to be applicable to such purchase of Additional Investor Stock by the Investor mutatis mutandis (except for the provisions of Section 1.2(c)(ii)(C) which shall have
been satisfied at the Closing). 
 (c) Closing Conditions. (i) The respective obligations of the Investor on the one hand, and
the Company, on the other hand, to consummate the Closing are subject to the fulfillment or written waiver by the Investor and the Company prior to the Closing of the following conditions: 
 (A) the Shareholder Proposal shall have been approved by the shareholders of the Company by the Company Requisite Vote; 
  

 2 








 (B) no provision of any applicable law or regulation and no judgment, injunction, order

 (C) any approvals or authorizations of or notices to (or expiration or termination of any applicable waiting periods of) the Governmental Entities specified on Section 2.2(e) of the Disclosure Schedule shall have

Section 2.2(f) and 2.2(g)(ii), which shall be interpreted with regard to such qualification and (ii) for those references to a “material” property, contract or other asset or item in a representation or warranty that requires the
Company to identify or list any such “material” properties, contracts, assets or items in a Section of the Disclosure Schedule) or “Material Adverse Effect” qualifications included therein) as of the date of this Agreement and as
of the Closing Date as though made on and as of the Closing Date (other than representations and warranties that by their terms speak as of another date, which representations and warranties shall be true and correct as of such other date), except
to the extent that the failure of such representations and warranties to be so true and correct, individually or in the aggregate, does not have and would not be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect (it being understood by the parties
that, with respect to the representations and warranties included in clause (i) and (ii) above, any determination of whether there has been a breach of such representations and warranties shall be made with regard to the
“materiality” qualifier included therein; provided, however, that once a breach of any such representations and warranties has been established, then any determination as to the effect of any such breach shall be made without regard to
“materiality”), (y) the representations and warranties of the Company set forth in Section 2.2(b), 2.2(n) and 2.2(x) shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date

 (D) the shares of Common Stock to be issued at the Closing shall have been authorized for listing on the NASDAQ National Market System
(“NASDAQ”) or such other market on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted, subject to official notice of issuance; 
 (E) the Investor shall have received a certificate, dated the Closing Date, signed on behalf of the Company by the Chief Executive Officer or the Chief Financial Officer of the Company (in each case without personal
liability), certifying on behalf of the Company that the conditions specified in the foregoing clauses (A), (B) and (C) have been fulfilled; 
 (F) the Company shall have duly executed and delivered to the Investor the Registration Rights Agreement in the form attached hereto as

Closing Date as though made on and as of the Closing Date (other than representations and warranties that by their terms speak as of another date, which representations and warranties shall be true and correct as of such other date), except to the
extent that the failure of such representations and warranties to be so true and correct would not reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect Investor’s ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement or consummate the
transactions contemplated hereby on a timely basis, and (y) the representations and warranties of the Investor set forth in Section 2.3(d) and 2.3 (e) shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the date of this Agreement
and as of the Closing Date as though made on and as of the Closing Date (other than representations and warranties that by their terms speak as of another date, which representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all material respects

discussions, offers or requests that constitute, or may reasonably be expected to constitute, an Acquisition Proposal, (B) directly or indirectly,
engage in any negotiations or discussions concerning, or provide access to its properties, books and records or any confidential information or data to, any person relating to an Acquisition Proposal or (C) approve, endorse, recommend or enter
into any agreement or any letter of intent or agreement in principle with respect to any Acquisition Proposal (other than a confidentiality agreement as contemplated below). The Company agrees that it will, and it will cause its Subsidiaries and
Representatives to, immediately cease and cause to be terminated any existing activities, discussions or negotiations with any persons conducted heretofore with respect to any Acquisition Proposal. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, prior to
obtaining the Company Requisite Vote, nothing contained in this Agreement shall prevent the Company or the Board of Directors (acting through the special committee or otherwise) from furnishing information to, or engaging in negotiations or
discussions with, any person in connection with an unsolicited Acquisition Proposal by such person, if prior to taking such action (w) the Board of Directors (acting through the special committee or otherwise) determines in good faith (after
consultation with its outside legal counsel) that such Acquisition Proposal is, or could reasonably be expected to result in, a Superior Proposal, (x) the failure to take such actions would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under
applicable law, (y) the Company receives from such person an executed confidentiality agreement with terms no less favorable in the aggregate than the Confidentiality Agreement, and (z) prior to taking such action, the Company provides
written notice to the Investor of such matter (which notice shall identify the person who has made the Acquisition Proposal and the material terms, if any, of such Acquisition Proposal). Nothing in this Section 3.1 shall prohibit the Company
from taking and disclosing to its shareholders a position contemplated by Rule 14d-9 and Rule 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act (or any similar communication to shareholders in connection with the making or amendment of a tender
or exchange offer) or from making any disclosure to the Company’s shareholders, if the Board of Directors determines in good faith that failure to take such actions would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to the shareholders of the
Company under applicable law; provided that (i) if, in connection with taking and disclosing any such position to the Company’s shareholders, the Company’s disclosure otherwise constitutes a Change of Recommendation under
Section 3.1(e), then the Investor shall be entitled to exercise the rights and remedies associated with a Change of Recommendation under Section 3.1(e) and 5.1(h) (it being understood, for removal of doubt, that a recommendation against
acceptance of any such offer or a “stop-look-and-listen” communication to the stockholders of the Company would not constitute a Change of Recommendation hereunder), (ii) to the extent the Company has previously effected a Change of
Recommendation, nothing in this Section 3.1(d) shall be deemed to cure any Change of Recommendation or otherwise render such previous disclosure anything other than a Change of Recommendation, and (iii) nothing in this Section 3.1(d)
shall otherwise relieve the Company of its obligation under Section 3.1(e). 
 (e) Except as set forth in this Section 3.1(e),
neither the Board of Directors of the Company nor any committee thereof shall (i) withdraw or modify, or publicly propose to withdraw or modify, in a manner adverse to the Investor, the Board Recommendation, (ii) recommend, adopt or
approve, or propose publicly to recommend, adopt or approve, any Acquisition Proposal or Acquisition Proposal Documentation (as defined below) (any action described in clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section 3.1(e), a “Change of
Recommendation”) or (iii) execute (or allow the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to execute) any letter of intent, 

  

 26 








 
memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, merger agreement, acquisition agreement, option agreement, joint venture agreement, partnership
agreement or other similar agreement constituting an Acquisition Proposal (other than a confidentiality agreement pursuant to Section 3.1(d)) (any such documentation, “Acquisition Proposal Documentation“). Notwithstanding the
foregoing or any other provision of this Section 3.1 to the contrary, if, at any time prior to obtaining the Company Requisite Vote (but after the expiration of the Notice Period (as defined below)), the Company’s Board of Directors
determines, in response to an Acquisition Proposal that was unsolicited and that did not otherwise result from a breach of Section 3.1(d), that such Acquisition Proposal is a Superior Proposal, (A) the Company may terminate this Agreement
in accordance with Section 5.1(g) and Section 5.2 to concurrently enter into a definitive agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal and (B) its Board of Directors may approve or recommend such Superior Proposal to its
shareholders; provided, that the Company may not terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 3.1(e) and its Board of Directors may not approve or recommend any Superior Proposal and the Company may not enter into or execute any
definitive agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal (other than a confidentiality agreement pursuant to Section 3.1(d)), and any such action shall be void and of no force or effect, unless (x) the Company has provided a written
notice to Investor (a “Notice of Superior Proposal“) advising Investor that the Company has received a Superior Proposal and specifying the identity of the person making such Superior Proposal and the material terms thereof,
together with copies of any written offer, proposal or agreement in respect of such Superior Proposal (it being understood that neither the delivery of a Notice of Superior Proposal nor any subsequent public announcement thereof, in each case in and
of itself, shall entitle the Company to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 5.1(g)); and (y) Investor does not, within seven business days following its receipt of the Notice of Superior Proposal (the “Notice
Period”), make an offer that, as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company, results in the applicable Acquisition Proposal no longer being a Superior Proposal (provided that, during the Notice Period, the Company shall and shall
cause its Representatives to, if so requested by Investor, negotiate in good faith with Investor with respect to any revised or new proposal from Investor in respect of the terms of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Superior
Proposal), it being further understood and agreed that any amendment to the financial terms or other material terms of such Superior Proposal shall require a new Notice of Superior Proposal and a new Notice Period; provided, however any such new
Notice Period shall be two business days instead of seven business days; and provided, further, however, that in no event shall the Company be required to deliver to the Investor a Notice of Superior Proposal on more than four occasions with respect
to any particular Acquisition Proposal made by any one party. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, at any time prior to obtaining the Company Requisite Vote, the Board of Directors shall be permitted to make a Change of Recommendation described in
clause (i) of such definition in the event that (a) the Board of Directors, acting in good faith after consultation with outside counsel to the Company, determines that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with its
fiduciary duties under applicable law and (b) the Company has provided Investor with at least three business days’ prior notice of the Change of Recommendation; provided that, unless this Agreement is terminated by the Investor in
accordance with Section 5.1(h) the obligation of the Company to call, give notice of, convene and hold the Shareholders’ Meeting as promptly as practicable after the date of this Agreement shall not be limited or otherwise affected by the
commencement, disclosure, announcement or submission to it of any Acquisition Proposal or by such a Change of Recommendation.

and under the supervision of the Company’s personnel and in such manner so as not to interfere with the normal operations of the Company. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Company shall not be required to disclose any information to
the Investor if such disclosure would (i) result in the breach of any attorney-client or other legal privilege, or (ii) contravene any applicable laws, fiduciary duty or binding agreement entered into prior to the date hereof. The Company

than pursuant to the exercise of Investor’s rights under Section 4.5; 
 (ii) (A) make or in any way

advise, change or control the management, Board of Directors, policies, affairs or strategy of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, in each case by way of any public communication intended for such purpose (it being understood that this
clause (B) shall not prohibit the Investor from complying with its fiduciary and contractual obligations or exercising its rights under Section 4.3 or any Board Representative from performing his or her duties as a director of the
Company), (C) make or encourage others to make a proposal for any transaction which would result in a Change of Control (as defined below) or (D) take any action to form, join or in any way participate in any partnership, syndicate or
other group (as defined in Rule 13d-5(b)(1) under the Exchange Act, as in effect on the date hereof) with respect to Equity Securities or debt securities with a view to circumventing the provisions of this Section 4.1 or otherwise act in
concert with any person for the purpose of circumventing the provisions of this Agreement; 
 (iii) deposit any Equity
Securities in a voting trust or similar agreement or subject any Equity Securities to any arrangement or agreement with respect to the voting of such Equity Securities, in each case with a view to circumventing the restrictions imposed on the
Investor under Section 4.1; provided, however, that this Section 4.1(a)(iii) shall not prohibit any such arrangement solely among the Investor and any of the controlled Affiliates of One Equity Holding Corporation;

 (iv) propose (or publicly announce or otherwise disclose an intention to propose), solicit, offer, seek to effect,
negotiate with or provide any confidential information relating to the Company or its business to any other person with respect to, any tender or exchange offer, merger, consolidation, share exchange, business combination, restructuring,
recapitalization or similar transaction involving the Company; provided, that nothing set forth in this Section 4.1(a)(iv) shall prohibit the Investor from soliciting, offering, seeking to effect and negotiating with any person with
respect to Transfers of Equity Securities otherwise permitted by this Article IV; 
 (v) publicly or privately make or in
any way advance any request or proposal to amend, modify or waive any provision of this Agreement; or 
  

 30 








 (vi) announce an intention to do, or solicit, assist, prompt, induce or attempt to induce
any person to do, any of the actions restricted or prohibited under subparagraphs (a)(i) through (v) above. 
 (b) Notwithstanding
anything in this Agreement, the foregoing provisions of Section 4.1(a) shall not prohibit activities of any Subsidiaries or Affiliates of OEP in the ordinary course of their respective businesses which would otherwise violate the provisions of
Section 4.1(a) (“permitted activities”) provided that (i) appropriate “information barriers” are established between individuals who are working on behalf of OEP and its Representatives to whom confidential
information regarding the Company is disclosed hereunder and those individuals who engage in permitted activities which will prevent confidential information regarding the Company from being disclosed to such individuals, (ii) such permitted
activities are conducted only in accordance with the policies and procedures governing such information barriers and with applicable law, (iii) the individuals engaging in permitted activities are not acting at the direction of OEP or any of
its Representatives to whom confidential information regarding the Company has been disclosed hereunder and (iv) such activities are not undertaken with a view to circumventing the provisions of Section 4.1. 
 (c) The Investor’s obligations under Sections 4.1(a) shall terminate on the earliest of (a “Standstill Termination
Date”): (i) the date on which the Investor and its Affiliates beneficially own less than 10% of the issued and outstanding Voting Shares; (ii) the date on which the Company’s Board of Directors (x) publicly recommends
that shareholders tender their shares to any person who has publicly announced or commenced a tender or exchange offer which, if consummated, would result in a Change of Control, or (y) fails to recommend that shareholders reject such an offer
within ten (10) business days after its public announcement (including a public filing) or commencement or otherwise fails to make a “stop-look-and-listen” communication to the stockholders of the Company within such time period;
(iii) the public announcement (including a public filing) by the Company that it is “for sale” in a transaction, or that it recommends a proposed transaction, that would result in a Change of Control; (iv) the execution by the
Company of a definitive agreement which, if consummated, would result in a Change of Control; (v) the public announcement (including a public filing) by or on behalf of any person (other than Investor and its Affiliates) or “group”,
as such term is defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act (other than any group that includes Investor or any of its Affiliates) of the commencement of a bona fide proxy or consent solicitation to elect or remove a majority of the Board
of Directors which is not, within ten (10) days after the announcement of such proxy or consent solicitation, publicly opposed by the Board of Directors; (vi) failure of any individual who is duly designated by the Investor and duly
qualified to serve as a Board Representative on the Board of Directors as provided in Section 4.3 to become a member of the Board of Directors which failure results from a breach by the Company of its obligations under Section 4.3; or
(vii) the date the Common Stock ceases to trade on NASDAQ. 
 A “Change of Control” shall be deemed to have occurred
(i) if any person or group (other than the Investor and its Affiliates) shall acquire beneficial ownership of more than 50% of the Voting Shares issued and outstanding (it being understood, for removal of doubt, that the transactions
contemplated hereby and by the Institutional Investors’ Purchase Agreement do not, by themselves, constitute a Change of Control), (ii) upon consummation of a merger or consolidation of the Company into or with another person (other than
the Investor and its 

  

 31 








 
Affiliates) in which the shareholders of the Company immediately prior to the consummation of such transaction shall own less than 50% of the voting
securities of the surviving person (or the parent of the surviving person where the surviving person is wholly owned by the parent person) immediately following the consummation of such transaction, or (iii) upon the consummation of the sale,
transfer or lease (but not including a transfer or lease by pledge or mortgage to a bona fide lender) of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to another person other than a Company Subsidiary. 
 As used herein, “Equity Securities” means, at any time, all Voting Shares and other securities of any person convertible into, or
exchangeable or exercisable for, Voting Shares, in each case then issued and outstanding. “Voting Shares” means, at any time, all Common Stock and other voting shares (if any) of the Company, in each case then issued and
outstanding. As used herein, “beneficial ownership”, “beneficially own” and correlative terms have the meaning set forth in Rule 13d-3 and Rule 13d-5 under the Exchange Act and, for the avoidance of doubt,
it is understood and agreed that the following shall apply for the purpose of calculating the beneficial ownership of Voting Shares of any person for any purpose under this Section 4.1: (i) any Equity Security that is convertible into, or
exchangeable or exercisable for, any Voting Shares and is beneficially owned by such person or any of its Affiliates shall be treated as fully converted, exchanged or exercised, as the case may be, into or for the underlying Voting Shares
(regardless of when or on what conditions such conversion, exchange or exercise may occur), (ii) Equity Securities that are beneficially owned by such person and each of its Affiliates, or by any member of a group of which such person or any of
its Affiliates is a member pursuant to said Rule 13d-5, shall be aggregated as if beneficially owned by such person and (iii) any Equity Security that is convertible into, or exchangeable or exercisable for, Voting Shares and is
beneficially owned by any person other than such person or any of its Affiliates shall not be taken into account. 
 (d) The provisions of
this Section 4.1 shall supersede the standstill provisions of the Investor’s Confidentiality Agreement in their entirety from and after the Closing. 
 4.2 Transfer Restrictions. 
 (a) Restrictions on Transfer. Except as otherwise permitted in
this Agreement, for a period ending on the earlier of (x) twelve months after the Closing Date or (y) the occurrence of a Standstill Termination Date, the Investor will not transfer, sell, assign or otherwise dispose of
(“Transfer”) any Purchased Securities, and after such period the Investor may Transfer the Purchased Securities (A) only in a privately negotiated transaction to any person or group of persons that would not acquire pursuant to
such Transfer beneficial ownership of 10% or more of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock or (B) into the public market (in a registered public offering, pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or otherwise, including through
any broker, dealer or underwriter, acting in a capacity as such, that purchases Purchased Securities for distribution) provided that the Investor does not knowingly (without, however, imposing any duty of inquiry on the Investor) effect any public
market sale or transfer that would result in any person or group acquiring beneficial ownership of 10% or more of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock. 
  

 32 








 (b) Permitted Transfers. Notwithstanding Section 4.2(a), Investor shall be permitted to
Transfer any portion or all of its Common Stock acquired pursuant to this Agreement at any time under the following circumstances: 
 (i) Transfers to (A) any Affiliate of the Investor, provided that for the purposes of this clause (1) the term “Affiliate” shall only include (i) the entities controlled, directly or indirectly, by OEP Holding
Corporation and (ii) entities controlled, directly or indirectly, by JPMorganChase & Co. that are engaged in the private equity business or (B) any direct or indirect limited partner or shareholder of the Investor, but in each
case only if the transferee agrees in writing for the benefit of the Company to be bound by the terms of this Agreement (any such transferee shall be included in the term “Investor”); and 
 (ii) Transfers pursuant to a merger, tender offer or exchange offer or other business combination, acquisition of assets or similar
transaction that has, without the participation of Investor, resulted in a Change of Control involving the Company or any Company Subsidiary. 
 Other than pursuant to a transaction contemplated by Section 4.2(b)(ii) above, the Investor agrees that it will not Transfer any interest in any transferee pursuant to this Section 4.2(b), unless
(x) prior thereto the Purchased Securities held by such entity are transferred to the Investor or to one or more of the permitted transferees pursuant to this Section 4.2(b) and/or (y) such transferee remains a person to which
Investor is permitted to transfer any portion or all of its Common Stock under Section 4.2(b)(i) following such Transfer. Any such Transfer pursuant to clause (i) of this Section 4.2(b) shall be void unless each transferee shall agree
that prior to such time as it ceases to be a Person to which Investor is permitted to Transfer any portion or all of its Common Stock pursuant to clause (i) of this Section 4.2(b), it shall Transfer the Purchased Securities it holds to
Investor or one or more permitted transferees of Investor pursuant to this Section 4.2(b). 
 4.3 Governance Matters. 

(a) The Company will promptly cause three persons nominated by Investor to be elected or appointed to the Board of Directors (the “Board
Representatives”), effective as of the Closing, with at least one Board Representative to be elected or appointed to each of the three classes of the Board of Directors with terms expiring in, respectively, the calendar year 2009, 2010 and
2011 (each class of members of the Board of Directors with terms expiring in a different year, a “Class”). The election or appointment of the Board Representatives will be subject to satisfaction of all legal and governance
requirements regarding service as a director of the Company and to the reasonable approval of the Nominating and Governance Committee of the Board of Directors (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, that, in no
event shall any of the Board Representatives be required to be “independent” as such term is defined in the rules and regulations promulgated by NASDAQ. At or prior to Closing, the Company shall take all corporate and other action
necessary (x) to cause one of the existing directors from each Class to resign, and (y) to cause each of the three individuals designated by the Investor to be elected or appointed to the Board of Directors (with a least one designee being
elected or appointed to a different Class) effective as of Closing for an initial term ending, in 

  

 33 








 
each case, at the next annual meeting of the shareholders of the Company. As of the date hereof, Investor has designated each of David Cohen, Colin Farmer
and David Eckert as a nominee for Board Representative, and the Company acknowledges that, based upon information regarding such nominees provided to the Company by Investor as of the date of this Agreement, the said nominees meet all the legal and
governance requirements regarding service as a director of the Company as of such date. Any individual subsequently designated by the Investor pursuant to this Section 4.3 must be reasonably acceptable to the Company; provided, that, in
no event shall any Board Representative designated by the Investor be required to be “independent” as such term is defined in the rules and regulations promulgated by NASDAQ. 
 (b) Subsequent to the appointment of the Board Representatives in accordance with Section 4.3(a) above, the Investor shall have the right to
designate or nominate (as applicable) three Board Representatives as follows: 
 (i) For so long as the Investor holds at
least 30% of the then outstanding Common Stock, Investor shall have the right to designate three directors to the Board of Directors; 
 (ii) For so long as the Investor holds at least 20%, but less than 30%, of the then outstanding Common Stock, Investor shall have the right to designate two directors to the Board of Directors; 
 (iii) For so long as the Investor holds at least 10%, but less than 20%, of the then outstanding Common Stock, Investor shall have the
right to designate one director to the Board of Directors; and 
 (iv) If the Investor holds less than 10% of the then
outstanding Common Stock, the Company shall have no obligation to pursuant to this Agreement to cause any nominees presented to the shareholders of the Company for election to the Board of Directors to include any nominee designated by the Investor.

 (c) For so long as the Investor has the right to designate or nominate at least one director pursuant to Section 4.3(b) above, and
subject at all times to the last sentence of Section 4.3(a), the Company and the Nominating and Governance Committee of the Board of Directors shall take such action as is required under applicable law, the rules and regulations in effect at
such time of NASDAQ or such other market on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted, the Company’s articles of association and its bylaws to include on the Board of Directors or in the slate of nominees recommended by the Board of
Directors such person(s) designated or nominated, as the case may be, by the Investor pursuant to Section 4.3(b). The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to have the Board Representative(s) elected as a director of the Company and the
Company shall solicit proxies for each such person to the same extent as it does for any of its other nominees to the Board of Directors. For so long as the Investor has the right to designate or nominate at least one director pursuant to
Section 4.3(b) above, and subject at all times to the last sentence of Section 4.3(a), in the event that a vacancy is created at any time by the death, disability, retirement, resignation or removal of any Board Representative, Investor
may designate or nominate, as applicable, another individual to be elected to fill the vacancy created thereby, and the Company hereby agrees to take, at any time and from time to time, all actions necessary to accomplish the same. 
  

 34 








 (d) All obligations of the Company pursuant to Section 4.3 shall terminate, and, upon request by the
Board of Directors, the Investor shall cause all of the Board Representatives to resign promptly from the Board of Directors, in each case upon the Investor ceasing to have the right to designate or nominate at least one director pursuant to
Section 4.3(b). In addition, upon request by the Board of Directors, the Investor shall cause any excess Board Representatives to resign promptly at any time that there exist more Board Representatives than the Investor is entitled to nominate
or designate pursuant to Section 4.3(b). In the event that Investor is required to cause the resignation of one or more Board Representatives in accordance with this Section 4.3(d) in circumstance in which, following such resignation there
shall remain one or more Board Representatives on the Board of Directors, the Investor shall in its sole discretion select which Board Representatives(s) shall remain on the Board of Directors (and provide written notice to the Company of such
selection) and the other Board Representatives(s) shall promptly resign. Any vacancy created by such resignation may be filled by the Board of Directors or the shareholders of the Company in accordance with the Company’s articles of
incorporation, the bylaws and applicable law. The Company may implement this provision by requiring the execution and delivery of resignation letters by the Board Representatives subject to termination of designation or nomination rights.

 (e) Board Representatives shall be entitled to serve on each committee of the Board of Directors (in accordance with applicable laws and
the NASDAQ Rules), and the number of Board Representatives appointed to each such committee shall be proportionate to the number of Board Representatives present on the Board of Directors at any given time; provided that, for as long as
Investor is entitled to designate or nominate at least one Board Representative, at least one Board Representative shall be entitled to serve on each committee of the Board of Directors; provided, further, that, if such Board
Representative is not “independent”, such Board Representative shall not be entitled to serve on any committee of the Board of Directors, which, under applicable law or the NASDAQ Rules, must be comprised entirely of
“independent” directors. Any Board Representative who is not a member of a committee of the Board of Directors shall have the right to attend and observe (but not vote at) each meeting of such committee (and to receive from the Company
copies of all notices, information and other material provided to members of such committee). 
 (f) Each Board Representative shall be
entitled to the same compensation, if any, and same indemnification in connection with his or her role as a director as the other members of the Board of Directors, and each Board Representative shall be entitled to reimbursement for documented,
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in attending meetings of the Board of Directors or any committees thereof, to the same extent as the other members of the Board of Directors. The Company shall notify the Board Representatives of all
regular and special meetings of the Board of Directors and shall notify each Board Representative of all regular and special meetings of any committee of the Board of Directors of which such Board Representative is a member. The Company shall
provide the Board Representatives with copies of all notices, minutes, consents and other materials provided to all other members of the Board of Directors concurrently as such materials are provided to the other members. 
  

 35 








 4.4 Legend. (a) The Investor agrees that all certificates or other instruments representing
the Common Stock subject to this Agreement will bear a legend substantially to the following effect: 
 (1) THE SECURITIES
REPRESENTED BY THIS INSTRUMENT HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT WHILE A REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATING THERETO IS
IN EFFECT UNDER SUCH ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER SUCH ACT OR SUCH LAWS. 
 (2) THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO TRANSFER AND OTHER RESTRICTIONS SET FORTH IN AN INVESTMENT AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF AUGUST 20, 2008, COPIES OF WHICH ARE ON FILE WITH THE SECRETARY OF
THE ISSUER. 
 (b) Upon the reasonable request of the Investor, at a time when such legend is no longer required under the Securities Act and
applicable state laws, the Company shall promptly cause clause (1) of the legend to be removed from any certificate for any Purchased Securities to be Transferred in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and clause (2) of the legend
shall be removed upon the expiration of such transfer and other restrictions set forth in this Agreement. The Investor acknowledges that the Purchased Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act or under any state securities laws
and agrees that it will not sell or otherwise dispose of any of the Purchased Securities, except in compliance with the registration requirements or exemption provisions of the Securities Act and any other applicable securities laws. 
 4.5 Preemption Rights. If at any time after the Closing Date, the Company makes any public or non-public offering of Common Stock (or securities
convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for Common Stock) (“New Securities”), other than pursuant to the issuance or exercise of New Securities (i) under any Benefit Plan currently listed in Section 2.2(b) of the
Disclosure Schedule or (ii) in any direct or indirect business combination or acquisition transaction involving the Company or a Company Subsidiary, the Investor shall be afforded the opportunity to acquire from the Company for the same price
(before adding any underwriting discounts or sales commissions) and on the same terms as such New Securities are proposed to be offered to others, up to the amount of New Securities required to enable the Investor to maintain its proportionate
interest in the Company represented by the number of shares of Common Stock acquired by the Investor at Closing Date. The amount of New Securities that the Investor shall be entitled to purchase shall be determined by multiplying (x) the total
number of such offered New Securities by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock held by the Investor and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding, in each case, before
giving effect to such issuance. The Investor must exercise its rights under this Section 4.5 within ten business days of its receipt of written notice from the Company of its intent to make such a public or non-public offering which notice


  

 36 








 
shall also contain the material terms (including price terms) of such offering. The rights of the Investor under this Section 4.5 shall terminate upon
the first date on which the Investor beneficially owns less than 10% of the outstanding Common Stock. 
 4.6 Investor Consent Rights.
(a) From and after the date hereof and until the earlier of (i) such a time that the Investor no longer beneficially owns at least 20% of the outstanding Common Stock of the Company and (ii) the date that is 24 months following the
Closing Date, the Company, without the prior written consent of the Investor (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), shall not, directly or indirectly: 
 (A) acquire (whether by merger, consolidation or acquisition of stock or assets or otherwise) any corporation, partnership or other
business organization or division thereof or any assets outside the ordinary course of business if the aggregate amount of the consideration paid in connection with all such transactions, in any given fiscal year, would exceed the amount of
$25,000,000; 
 (B) issue, deliver, sell, pledge, dispose of, grant, award or encumber any shares of capital stock, ownership
interests or voting securities, or any options, warrants, convertible securities or other rights of any kind to acquire or receive any shares of capital stock, any other ownership interests or any voting securities of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries (except for (A) issuances in accordance with the Company’s existing or future Benefit Plans or (B) issuances in accordance with the Rights Plan); provided, however, that, following the Closing Date, the Company may raise
additional capital through the issuance of capital stock in an amount not to exceed $25,000,000 in any given fiscal year; 
 (C) enter into any new line of business outside of its existing business; and 
 (D) enter into any agreements or
understandings with respect to any of the foregoing items (A) through (C). 
 (b) From and after the date hereof and until such a time
that the Investor no longer beneficially owns at least 20% of the outstanding Common Stock of the Company, the Company, without the prior written consent of the Investor (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), shall not,
directly or indirectly: 
 (i) enter into, amend in any respect, modify in any respect or terminate or engage in any
transactions with any executive officer or director of the Company (other than any agreements, arrangements or transactions with any such persons relating to customary compensation and benefit matters), any person owning 5% or more of the
Company’s Common Stock or any relative of any such person or any entity directly or indirectly controlled by such person, except as contemplated by the Institutional Investors’ Purchase Agreement; and 
  

 37 








 (ii) enter into any agreements or understandings with respect to the foregoing item (i).

 (c) From and after the date hereof and until such a time that the Investor no longer beneficially owns at least 10% of the outstanding
Common Stock of the Company, the Company, without the prior written consent of the Investor (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), shall not, directly or indirectly: 
 (i) amend its restated articles of incorporation or amended or restated bylaws (A)(1) in a manner that is adverse to Investor and
(2) that treats Investor differently from other holders of the Company’s Common Stock or (B) in a manner that treats Investor differently from other holders of the Company’s Common Stock; 
 (ii) increase the size of the Board of Directors beyond nine directors; and 
 (iii) enter into any agreements or understandings with respect to any of the foregoing items (i) and (ii). 
 4.7 Exchange Listing. The Company shall promptly use its reasonable best efforts to cause the shares of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to this
Agreement to be approved for listing on NASDAQ, subject to official notice of issuance, as promptly as practicable, and in any event before the Closing if permitted by the rules of NASDAQ. 
 4.8 Use of Proceeds. The Company shall use the proceeds from the sale of the Purchased Securities, as contemplated by the Recapitalization, to
(a) partially repay indebtedness under the First Lien Credit and Guaranty Agreement, dated as of October 24, 2007, between the Company and the other parties thereto ( the “First Lien Credit Facility”) and the Second Lien

between the Company and Goldman Sachs & Co., in case of each of (a) and (b) above, in accordance with Section 1.2(c)(ii)(H) of the Disclosure Schedule, (c) settlement of certain amounts owed under the Mortgage and
Security Agreement, dated as of June 30, 2006, by and between the Company and Fifth Third Bank, as amended (d) payment of fees and expenses incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Institutional
Investors’ Purchase Agreement and the Recapitalization and (e) shall use any proceeds remaining after uses described in (a) through (d) above for general corporate purposes. Company will use all reasonable efforts to cause the
transactions contemplated by the Recapitalization to be consummated by the Closing Date; provided, however, that, except with respect to fees and expenses the Company is required to pay pursuant to the Recapitalization, nothing in this
Section 4.8 shall require the Company to pay any consideration (including any fees or expenses not currently contemplated by the terms of the Recapitalization) to any person, or waive or modify any term of the Recapitalization. 
 4.9 Transaction Fee. At the Closing, the Company shall pay a one-time transaction fee to the Investor or its designee by wire transfer of
immediately available funds to an account designated by the Investor in an amount equal to $2,000,000 (the “Transaction Fee”); provided,  

  

 38 








 
however, that if the Company exercises all or any portion of the Shortfall Option and the Investor purchases any shares of Common Stock pursuant thereto,
then the Company shall pay to the Investor an amount equal to $500,000 as promptly as reasonably practicable (and in any event within two business days following consummation of such purchase by Investor), by wire transfer of same day funds.

 4.10 Amendments to the Institutional Investors’ Purchase Agreement. Nothing contained herein shall preclude the Company from
amending the terms of the Institutional Investors’ Purchase Agreement on or prior to the Closing to the extent that such amendments do not reduce the purchase price payable thereunder, do not change the number of shares of Common Stock to be
purchased thereunder or otherwise adversely impact the Company or the Investor; provided that (i) any such amendment which would necessitate a prior consent under the terms of either or both of the First Lien Forbearance Agreement and
the Second Lien Forbearance Agreement may not be made unless and until such consent has been obtained and (ii) any such amendments which are beneficial to either or both of the Institutional Investors are also offered to the Investor within
five (5) days after such amendments take effect, but such offer shall be made only to the extent such amendment to the Institutional Investors’ Purchase Agreement is to a provision for which there is a corresponding provision to this
Agreement.
