shall use commercially reasonable efforts for a period of thirty (30) days thereafter to resolve any disagreements with respect to the calculations or amounts identified in the Closing Statements Notice of Disagreement. Any item or amount to
which no dispute is raised in the Closing Statements Notice of Disagreement will be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties. In connection with the review by the Sellers’ Representative of the Buyer Closing Statements, Buyer shall provide

review of such work papers and other documents and information relating to the calculation of the Final Working Capital Adjustment Amount or the Closing Indebtedness, as applicable, as the
Sellers’ Representative may reasonably request and that are available to Buyer and its Subsidiaries (including the Company and the U.K. Affiliate) or their accountants. 
 (c) If, at the end of the thirty (30) day resolution period, Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative are unable to resolve any disagreements as to items in the Closing Statements Notice of
Disagreement, then PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (or such other independent accounting firm of recognized national standing as may be mutually selected by the Sellers’ Representative and Buyer) shall be appointed, as an expert and not an
arbitrator, to resolve any remaining disagreements, but in no case shall such independent accounting firm review or propose any resolution for any matters that have not been raised in the Closing Statements Notice of Disagreement. If
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP is unwilling or unable to serve in such capacity and Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative are not able to mutually select an alternative accounting firm that is willing and able to serve in such capacity, then
Sellers shall within ten (10) days deliver to Buyer a listing of three (3) other accounting firms of recognized national standing and Buyer shall within ten (10) days after receipt of such list, select one of such three
(3) accounting firms; provided that the firm so selected shall not have performed accounting, tax or audit services for the Company, any Seller, Buyer or Affiliate of any of the foregoing for a period of three (3) years prior to its
selection (such firm as is ultimately selected pursuant to the aforementioned procedures being the “Accountant”). The Accountant shall be charged with determining as promptly as practicable, but in any event within thirty
(30) days after the date on which such dispute is referred to the Accountant, any unresolved disputed items required to determine the Final Working Capital Adjustment Amount or the Closing Indebtedness and, upon reaching such determination,
shall deliver a copy of its calculations to the Sellers’ Representative and Buyer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event shall the Accountant’s determination result in a Final Working Capital Adjustment Amount or
Closing Indebtedness outside of the range established by Buyer’s calculation of the Final Working Capital Adjustment Amount or Closing Indebtedness, as applicable, delivered in the Buyer Closing Statements pursuant to
Section 2.04(a) and Sellers’ calculation of the Final Working Capital Adjustment Amount or Closing Indebtedness, as applicable, delivered in the Closing Statements Notice of Disagreement pursuant to Section 2.04(b). The
determination of the Accountant shall be final, binding and conclusive for all purposes hereunder. Such amounts as finally determined by the Accountant shall be used to determine the Final Working Capital Adjustment Amount and the Closing
Indebtedness. Each Party shall bear its own attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses relating to such dispute and all reasonable fees, costs and expenses invoiced by the Accountant relating to such dispute shall be paid fifty percent (50%) by
Sellers and fifty percent (50%) by Buyer. 
 (d) Within five (5) Business Days of the date on which the last disputed
item required to determine the Final Working Capital Adjustment Amount or the Closing Indebtedness, as applicable, is resolved pursuant to Section 2.04(b) and (c), (i) if the Final Cash Consideration exceeds the Initial Cash
Consideration, Buyer shall pay in cash to Sellers identified as owners of the U.S. Shares on Exhibit A, in the proportions set forth on Exhibit A, the amount by which the Final Cash Consideration exceeds the Initial Cash
Consideration, and Buyer and Sellers’ Representative, by joint instruction, shall instruct (which instruction shall be based solely upon the calculation of the Final Cash Consideration using the Final Working


  
 6 








 
Capital Adjustment Amount and the Closing Indebtedness, each as finally determined in accordance with this Section 2.04) the Escrow Agent to release all of the Working Capital
Adjustment Escrow Amount (and any interest earned thereon) to Sellers pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, or (ii) if the Initial Cash Consideration exceeds the Final Cash Consideration, Sellers shall pay to Buyer the amount by which the Initial
Cash Consideration exceeds the Final Cash Consideration, (A) which amount shall be satisfied first from the Working Capital Adjustment Escrow Amount (and any interest earned thereon) pursuant to the Escrow Agreement and, if such amount exceeds
the Working Capital Adjustment Escrow Amount (and any interest earned thereon), directly from Sellers identified as owners of the U.S. Shares on Exhibit A, in the proportions set forth on Exhibit A (but such obligations of payment
shall be joint and several among them), or (B) if such amount is less than the Working Capital Adjustment Escrow Amount, Buyer and Sellers’ Representative, by joint instruction, shall instruct (which instruction shall be based
solely upon the calculation of the Final Cash Consideration using the Final Working Capital Adjustment Amount and the Closing Indebtedness, each as finally determined in accordance with this Section 2.04) the Escrow Agent to release such
difference (and any interest earned thereon) to Sellers and the remaining amount of the Working Capital Adjustment Escrow Amount (and any interest earned thereon) to Buyer pursuant to the Escrow Agreement. 

Section 2.05. Withholding. Buyer shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any payments made pursuant to
this Agreement any amounts required to be deducted and withheld under the Code or other applicable Laws, and shall timely remit any such withheld amounts to the appropriate Governmental Authority as required by applicable Laws. Any amounts deducted
and withheld pursuant to this Section 2.05 shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the applicable payee. 
 Section 2.06. Earn-Out Payment. 
 (a) At the end of the
Earn-Out Period, if Revenue for the Earn-Out Period (the “Earn-Out Period Revenue”) exceeds Two Hundred And Sixteen Million Dollars ($216,000,000), Buyer shall pay or cause to be paid to Sellers in accordance with this
Section 2.06 cash in an amount equal to the product of (i) 1.09375 times (ii) the difference of the Earn-Out Period Revenue minus Two Hundred And Sixteen Million Dollars ($216,000,000), up to a maximum total payment of
Thirty-Five Million Dollars ($35,000,000) (the “Earn-Out Payment”). In the event that Earn-Out Period Revenue is less than or equal to Two Hundred And Sixteen Million Dollars ($216,000,000), the Earn-Out Payment shall be zero and
Buyer shall have no further obligation with respect to the Earn-Out Payment. 
 (b) During the Earn-Out Period, within thirty

 (d) Within twenty (20) days after delivery of the Earn-Out Statement, the
Sellers’ Representative shall notify Buyer in writing as to whether Sellers agree or disagree with the calculation of Revenue set forth in the Earn-Out Statement and, if Sellers disagree, such notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the
particulars of such disagreement (the “Earn-Out Notice of Disagreement”). If the Sellers’ Representative provides a notice pursuant to which Sellers agree with the calculations of Revenue or does not provide an Earn-Out Notice
of Disagreement within such twenty (20) day period, then Sellers shall be deemed to have accepted the calculations set forth in the Earn-Out Statement delivered by Buyer, which shall then be final, binding and conclusive for all purposes
hereunder. If any such Earn-Out Notice of Disagreement is timely provided, then Sellers’ Representative and Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts for a period of thirty (30) days thereafter to resolve any disagreements with
respect to the calculations identified in the Earn-Out Notice of Disagreement. In connection with the review by Sellers’ Representative of the Earn-Out Statement, Buyer shall provide to the Sellers’ Representative full, reasonable access
to the records, employees and accountants of Buyer and its Subsidiaries (including the Company) and shall cause the employees of Buyer and its Subsidiaries (including the Company) to cooperate in all reasonable respects with the Sellers’
Representative in connection with his or her review of such work papers and other documents and information relating to the calculation of the Revenue as the Sellers’ Representative may reasonably request and that are available to Buyer and its
Subsidiaries (including the Company) or their accountants.

each of the Sellers’ Representative and Buyer shall provide a written notice to the Accountant setting forth its final determination of the disputed portion of the Earn-Out Payment due to Sellers, if any (each, an “Earn-Out Dispute
Amount”). The Accountant shall be charged with determining as promptly as practicable, but in any event within thirty (30) days after the date on which such dispute is referred to the Accountant, any unresolved disputed items, and upon
reaching such determination shall deliver a copy of its calculations to the Sellers’ Representative and Buyer. The determination of the Accountant as to the disputed items shall be final and binding upon Buyer and Sellers; provided that
in no event shall the amount determined by the Accountant be more than Sellers’ Earn-Out Dispute Amount or less than Buyer’s Earn-Out Dispute Amount. Each Party shall bear its own attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses relating to such
dispute and all reasonable fees, costs and expenses invoiced by the Accountant relating to such dispute shall be paid fifty percent (50%) by Sellers and fifty percent (50%) by Buyer. 

(f) Within five (5) Business Days of the date on which any final determination of Revenue pursuant to Sections 2.06(d) and

corresponding election under state, local or foreign Tax Law) with respect to the acquisition of the U.S. Shares hereunder (collectively, the “Section 338(h)(10) Election”). Sellers and Buyer shall file all Tax Returns consistent
with such Section 338(h)(10) Election and hereby agree not to take any action that could cause such Section 338(h)(10) Election to be invalid, and shall not take any position contrary thereto unless required to do so pursuant to a
determination (as defined in Section 1313(a) of the Code or any similar state, local or foreign tax provision). Buyer shall prepare copies of IRS Form 8023 (Elections Under Section 338 for Corporations Making Qualified Stock Purchases),

comparable provisions of each applicable state, local or foreign Law) or any successor provisions. 
 (b) The Company Purchase
Price (plus liabilities of the Company, to the extent such liabilities should be included in determining the “aggregate deemed sales price” and the “adjusted grossed-up basis” as described in Treasury Regulation Sections 1.338-4
and 1.338-5, respectively) shall be allocated among the assets of the Company in accordance with Sections 338 and 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder (and any similar provisions of state, local or foreign law, as appropriate)
based on an appraisal of the fair market value of the assets of the Company as of the Closing Date prepared at Buyer’s expense by Valuation Research Corporation (the “Allocation”). The Allocation shall be delivered by Buyer to
Sellers’ Representative within sixty (60) days after the final determination of Closing Net Working Capital and Closing Indebtedness pursuant to Section 2.04. 

(c) The Allocation shall be revised to appropriately take into account any other payments made pursuant to Sections 2.04,
2.06, 6.05, or 9.02, or any other provision of this Agreement, and Buyer shall deliver to Sellers’ Representative an amended Allocation reflecting any such revisions. The Sellers’ Representative shall have fifteen

 9 








 
through a written notice of objection delivered by the Sellers’ Representative, with any objections to the amended Allocation delivered by Buyer. The Sellers’ Representative and Buyer
shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to resolve any such objection. If a final resolution is not obtained within thirty (30) days after Buyer has received the written notice of objection from the Sellers’ Representative, Buyer
and the Sellers’ Representative shall submit the issue(s) in dispute to a jointly retained accounting firm (which may be the same as or different from the Accountant) for resolution. The determination of such accounting firm shall be set forth

price” and the “adjusted grossed-up basis” as described in Treasury Regulation Sections 1.338-4 and 1.338-5, respectively. Each Tax Filing Party shall not take any Tax position inconsistent with such Allocation and no Tax Filing Party

value of the Company or the U.K. Affiliate.

authorizations, Permits, consents and approvals required to own, operate and lease its properties and to carry on its business as now conducted. Buyer is duly licensed or qualified to do business as a foreign corporation under the laws of each
jurisdiction in which the character of its properties, or in which the transaction of its business, makes such qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so licensed or qualified would not reasonably be expected, individually or in the
aggregate, to interfere with, prevent or delay the ability of Buyer to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement or consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. 

Section 4.02. Authorization. The execution, delivery and performance by Buyer of the Transaction Documents to which it
is a party and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby are within the corporate powers of Buyer and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of Buyer. This Agreement has been duly and validly executed
and delivered by Buyer and constitutes a valid and binding agreement of Buyer, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and similar Laws affecting creditors’ rights and remedies generally and to general
principles of equity. Each other Transaction Document shall be duly and validly executed by Buyer at or prior to the Closing and, upon such execution and delivery by Buyer and the due and valid execution and delivery of such Transaction Document by
each other party thereto, shall constitute a valid and binding agreement of Buyer in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and similar Laws affecting creditors’ rights and remedies
generally and to general principles of equity. No other or further act or proceeding on the part of Buyer or its shareholders is necessary to authorize this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. 

Section 4.03. Governmental Authorization. The execution, delivery and performance by Buyer of the Transaction
Documents to which it is a party and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby require no action by or in respect of, or filing with, any Governmental Authority, other than (a) compliance with any applicable requirements of the
HSR Act and (b) any such action or filing as to which the failure to make or obtain would not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to interfere with, prevent or delay the ability of Buyer to enter into and perform its
obligations under this Agreement or consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. 
 Section 4.04.
Noncontravention. The execution, delivery and performance by Buyer of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby do not and shall not (i) violate the
Organizational Documents of Buyer, (ii) assuming compliance with the matters referred to in Section 4.03, violate any Law or Permit, (iii) constitute a material default under or give rise to any right of termination,
cancellation or acceleration of any right or obligation or to a loss of any benefit to which Buyer is entitled under 

  
 29 









 
any provision of any agreement or other instrument or Permit binding upon Buyer or (iv) result in the creation or imposition of any Lien on any asset of Buyer (except, in the case of clauses
(iii) and (iv), as would not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to interfere with, prevent or delay the ability of Buyer to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement or consummate the transactions
contemplated hereby).

sufficient cash on hand and/or available lines of credit or other sources of immediately available funds to enable it to (a) consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (b) pay the Purchase Price and all out-of-pocket

against Buyer that would reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in material Liability, to materially interfere with the conduct of Buyer’s business in substantially the manner currently conducted, or otherwise to
interfere with, prevent or delay the ability of Buyer to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement or consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. 
 Section 4.07. Solvency. Buyer is not entering into this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby with the actual intent to hinder, delay or defraud either present or future
creditors. Assuming that the representations and warranties of Seller contained in this Agreement are true and correct in all material respects, and after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, at and immediately after the
Closing, Buyer and each of its Subsidiaries (a) will be solvent (in that both the fair value of its assets will not be less than the sum of its debts and that the present fair saleable value of its assets will not be less than the amount
required to pay its probable Liability on its recourse debts as they mature or become due); (b) will have adequate capital and liquidity with which to engage in its business; and (c) will not have incurred and does not plan to incur debts
beyond its ability to pay as they mature or become due.

 ARTICLE VI 
 TAX MATTERS 
 Section 6.01.
Representations Relating to Taxes. Except as set forth in the Disclosure Schedule (but subject to Section 12.12), Sellers hereby jointly and severally represent and warrant to Buyer that: 

(a) The Company is an “S Corporation” (within the meaning of Section 1361 of the Code) for which a valid election under
Section 1362 of the Code is and has been in effect at all times since December 1, 1991 and that is and has been in effect at all times since December 1, 1991 for state or local Income Tax purposes in all jurisdictions in which the
Company has been obligated to file Income Tax Returns other than those state and local jurisdictions that do not recognize “S Corporation” elections as identified in Schedule 6.01(a). 

(b) The Company has not in the past ten (10) years (i) acquired assets from another corporation in a transaction in which the

the Company elected to treat as a “qualified subchapter S subsidiary.”

by or with respect to the Company or the U.K. Affiliate have been duly and timely filed (taking into account any applicable extensions of time to file) with the appropriate Governmental Authority, and all such Tax Returns are accurate and complete
in all material respects. Neither the Company nor the U.K. Affiliate is currently the beneficiary of any extension of time within which to file any Tax Return. The Company and the U.K. Affiliate have made available to Buyer (i) complete and

 (d) All material Taxes due and payable by the Company and the U.K. Affiliate, whether or not shown or reportable on any Tax Return, have been paid. The unpaid Taxes of the Company and the U.K. Affiliate
as of the date of the applicable Balance Sheet did not exceed the accruals and reserves for Taxes (excluding any reserve for deferred Taxes established to reflect timing differences between book and tax income) set forth on the face of the
applicable Balance Sheet (rather than in any notes thereto). Since the date of the applicable Balance Sheet, neither the Company nor the U.K. Affiliate has incurred any Liability for Taxes outside the Ordinary Course of Business or otherwise

enquiries into, any Tax Returns of the Company or the U.K. Affiliate by any relevant Taxing Authority at any time during the four (4) years prior to the Closing Date. No power of attorney has been executed by or on behalf of the Company or the
U.K. Affiliate with respect to any matters relating to Taxes that is currently in force. No extension or waiver of any statute of limitations relating to Taxes is in effect with respect to the Company or the U.K. Affiliate. No written claim has been

 (f) There are no Liens for Taxes (other than for current Taxes not yet due and payable) upon the assets and properties of
the Company or the U.K. Affiliate. The Company has not elected and is not required to treat any of its assets as tax-exempt bond financed property or 

  
 41

with, and its records contain all information and documents necessary to comply with, all applicable information reporting and withholding requirements under all applicable Laws. Each of the Company and the U.K. Affiliate has properly requested,
received and retained all necessary exemption certificates and other documentation supporting any claimed exemption or waiver of Taxes on sales, payments or other transactions as to which such company otherwise would have been obligated to collect
or withhold Taxes.

companies, (ii) fiscal consolidation or (iii) a fiscal unity. Neither the Company nor the U.K. Affiliate has any liability for Taxes of any other Person under Treasury Regulations § 1.1502-6 or any similar Law relating to state,
local or foreign Taxes, as a transferee or successor, by express or implied Contract, or otherwise, and no circumstance exists in respect of which such a liability may arise.

Return. Each Party shall have the right to review and comment on such Tax Return. If a Party, within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of any such Tax Return, notifies the Tax Preparing Party in writing that it objects to any items in such
Tax Return, the disputed item shall be resolved in a manner mutually agreeable to the Parties within ten (10) Business Days, and if not so resolved, then by a jointly retained accounting firm (which may be the same as or different from the
Accountant) within a reasonable time, taking into account the deadline for filing such Tax Return. Upon resolution of all such items, the relevant Tax Return shall be adjusted to reflect such resolution and shall be binding upon the Parties without
further adjustment. The costs, fees and expenses of such accounting firm shall be borne by the Tax Preparing Party unless such accounting firm adopts the Tax Preparing Party’s position, and in such case, the costs, fees and expenses of such

imposed thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer shall not be obligated to pay over any refunds or the amount of any credit, offset or Tax reduction to the extent such refund or benefit was included in Final Closing Net Working Capital. The
amount of any Tax deposits, estimated payments or overpayments existing on the Closing Date in respect of Income Taxes of the Company or the U.K. Affiliate shall be for the account of Sellers and shall be applied first to any related Pre-Closing
Taxes, as determined pursuant to the relevant Tax Return for the Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period. 
 (c)
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all excise, sales, use, value added, registration stamp, recording, documentary, conveyancing, property, transfer and similar Taxes, levies, charges and fees arising from the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement shall be borne equally by Buyer and Sellers. 
 Section 6.03. Cooperation on Tax
Matters. 
 (a) Buyer and Sellers shall cooperate fully as and to the extent reasonably requested by the Buyer or
Sellers, as applicable, in connection with the preparation, execution and filing of Tax Returns pursuant to Section 6.02(a) and any audit, examination, inquiry, claim for refund, lawsuit, action, claim, arbitration, mediation or other
proceeding at law or in equity by or before a Taxing Authority with respect to Taxes (each a “Tax Claim”). Such cooperation shall include access to records and information that are reasonably relevant to any such Tax Return or Tax
Claim, making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder and executing powers of attorney. Sellers and Buyer shall retain all books and records with respect
to Tax matters pertinent to the Company and the U.K. Affiliate relating to any Tax Period beginning before the Closing Date until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations of the respective Tax Periods or Tax matters and abide by all
record retention agreements entered into with any Taxing Authority. Buyer and Sellers each agree, upon request, to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any Taxing Authority or any other Person as may
be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any Tax that could be imposed (including with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement). 
 (b) In the event that a portion of the Company Employee Bonus Amount is repaid to Sellers in accordance with Section 7.04(c), Buyer and the Company shall cooperate with Sellers and the
Sellers’ Representative to file amended Income Tax Returns of the Company for Pre-Closing Tax Periods as may be necessary. In the event any Taxing Authority disallows (i) any portion of the Company Employee Bonus Amount or (ii) the
pre-closing accrual for the Employee Profit Sharing Plan as a deduction on an Income Tax Return for the Tax Period ending 

  
 46 









 
on the Closing Date, Buyer shall pay Sellers an amount equal to the incremental economic benefit, if any, attributable to the Income Tax savings realized by the Company on account of such amounts
being deducted as compensation by the Company with respect to a Tax Period that ends after the Closing Date; in such event, Sellers’ Representative and Buyer shall work together in good faith to determine the amount payable to Sellers
hereunder. If a final resolution is not obtained within thirty (30) days after good faith discussions between the parties begin, Buyer and Sellers’ Representative shall submit the issue or issues in dispute to a jointly retained accounting
firm (which may be the same as or different from the Accountant) for resolution. The determination of such accounting firm shall be set forth in a written notice delivered to Buyer and Sellers’ Representative by such accounting firm and shall
be final, binding and conclusive on the parties. Each Party shall bear its own attorney’s fees, costs and expenses relating to such dispute and all reasonable fees, costs and expenses invoiced by such accounting firm relating to such dispute
shall be paid fifty percent (50%) by Sellers and fifty percent (50%) by Buyer.

 Section 6.05. Tax Indemnification. 

(a) Except to the extent taken into account in the calculation of Final Closing Net Working Capital, Sellers hereby indemnify Buyer and
its Affiliates against and agree to hold each of them harmless from any and all (i) Liability for Pre-Closing Taxes of the Company and the U.K. Affiliate; (ii) Liability for Taxes of Sellers or any of their Affiliates (other than the
Company or the U.K. Affiliate), including Sellers’ share of Taxes referenced in Section 6.02(c); (iii) Losses (including lost Tax benefits resulting from an invalid Section 338(h)(10) Election) arising out of, resulting
from, or incident to any breach by Sellers or any of their Affiliates (including the Company or the U.K. Affiliate prior to the Closing) of any covenant contained in this Article VI or Section 2.07; and (iv) Losses (including
lost Tax benefits resulting from an invalid Section 338(h)(10) Election) arising out of, resulting from, or incident to any breach of any representation or warranty contained in Section 6.01 without regard to any qualification or
exception contained in such representation or warranty relating to materiality, Material Adverse Effect, material adverse effect, Company Adverse Effect or any similar qualification, dollar threshold or standard applicable thereto, except to the
extent such Losses are otherwise indemnified pursuant to the foregoing clauses (i) through (iii). For purposes of this Section 6.05(a), Taxes shall include the amount of Taxes that would have been payable but for the application of
any credit, loss, deduction or relief attributable to a Post-Closing Tax Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sellers’ indemnification obligations for Liability for Taxes related to a Post-Closing Tax Period resulting from breaches of
representations and warranties made in Section 6.01 (other than the representations and warranties contained in Section 6.01(a)) shall be limited to Losses arising in Tax Periods ending on or prior to: (A) the Closing Date with
respect to breaches of Section 6.01(b), (c), (d), (e) or (g), and (B) the later of (i) December 31, 2012 or (ii) twelve (12) months following the Closing Date, with respect to breaches of Section 6.01 not
described in the preceding clause (A) (other than Section 6.01(a)). 
 (b) Buyer hereby indemnifies Sellers and their
Affiliates against and agrees to hold each of them harmless from any and all (i) Liability for Taxes of the Company or the U.K. Affiliate for Post-Closing Tax Periods, except to the extent such Taxes are subject to indemnification by Sellers
pursuant to Section 6.05(a); and (ii) Losses arising out of, resulting 

  
 47 









 
from or incident to any breach by Buyer and its Affiliates (including the Company after Closing) of any covenant contained in this Article VI; and (iii) Buyer’s share of Taxes
referenced in Section 6.02(c). 
 (c) In the case of any Straddle Tax Period: 

(i) Real, personal and intangible property Taxes and any other Taxes levied on a per diem basis (“Per Diem
Taxes”) of any Person for a Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be equal to the amount of such Per Diem Taxes for the entire Straddle Tax Period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days during the Straddle Tax Period
that are in the Pre-Closing Tax Period and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the Straddle Tax Period; and 
 (ii) Taxes of any Person (other than Per Diem Taxes) for any Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be computed as if such Tax Period ended as of the close of business on the Closing Date. 

(iii) All determinations necessary to give effect to the allocation set forth in this Section 6.05(c) shall
be made in a manner consistent with prior practice of the Company or the U.K. Affiliate, as applicable. 
 (d) If any Tax Claim
shall be initiated, which, if successful, might result in an indemnity payment to a Person pursuant to this Section 6.05, the Indemnified Parties shall notify the Indemnifying Parties within fifteen (15) days of receipt of notice of
such a Tax Claim; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except to the extent the Indemnifying Parties have actually been prejudiced by such failure. 

(e) With respect to any Tax Claim relating to a Tax Period ending on or prior to the Closing Date, Sellers shall control all proceedings
and may make all decisions in connection with such Tax Claim (including selection of counsel) at its own expense. With respect to Tax Claims relating to Straddle Tax Periods, to the extent possible, Tax Liabilities will be distinguished and each
Party shall control the defense and settlement of those Taxes for which it is so liable. To the extent a Tax Liability cannot be so attributed, the Party that has the greater potential Liability shall control the defense and settlement;
provided that such Party defends the Tax issue as reported on the relevant Tax Return. Buyer shall control at its own expense all proceedings with respect to any Tax Claim relating to a Tax Period beginning after the Closing Date. A Party
shall promptly notify the other Parties if it decides not to control the defense or settlement of any Tax Claim that it is entitled to control pursuant to this Agreement, and any other Party shall thereupon be permitted to defend and settle such Tax
Claim at its own expense. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6.05(e), neither Buyer nor Sellers shall settle any Tax Claim without the other Party’s (with Sellers being considered one Party) prior written
consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, if the resolution of such Tax Claim reasonably could be expected to materially adversely affect the Tax Liability of such other Party or its Affiliates (including pursuant to
such Party’s indemnification obligations under Section 6.05(a) or (b)). 

  
 48 









 Section 6.06. Survival of Tax Claims. Claims under
Section 6.05 shall survive the Closing until thirty (30) days after the expiration of the statute of limitations (including extensions) applicable to the relevant Tax matter. No claim may be made or brought by any Party hereto after
the expiration of the applicable survival period unless such claim has been asserted by written notice specifying the details supporting the claim on or prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period. 

Section 6.07. Satisfaction of Claims. Claims made by Buyer or its Affiliates for indemnification under
Section 6.05 shall be satisfied, in the sole discretion of Buyer, from funds held in (a) the Indemnity Escrow Account, (b) by payment of cash or other immediately available funds from Sellers (such obligations of payment shall
be joint and several amongst them), or (c) by an offset to any Earn-Out Payment pursuant to Sections 9.04(b) and 9.04 (c). 
 ARTICLE VII 
 EMPLOYEE MATTERS 

Section 7.01. Compensation and Benefits. Buyer agrees that from the Closing through November 30, 2012 (the
“Relevant Period”), it shall provide (or cause its Subsidiaries to provide) each Company Employee with an annual base salary or hourly wage and cash incentive compensation opportunities that have a target value at least equal to his
or her annual base salary and target incentive compensation opportunities in effect immediately prior to the Closing. In addition, Buyer agrees that during the Relevant Period, it shall provide (or cause its Subsidiaries to provide) Company
Employees with benefits and perquisites that are, in the aggregate, substantially comparable to the Benefit Plans provided to such Company Employees immediately prior to the Closing; provided, however, that except as set forth in
Schedule 7.01, Buyer shall not be obligated to provide any Company Employee with any post-retirement medical or life benefits. Buyer agrees that after the expiration of the Relevant Period, it shall provide (or cause its Subsidiaries to
provide) Company Employees with compensation and benefits that are, in the aggregate, substantially comparable to the compensation and benefits provided to similarly situated employees of Buyer and its Subsidiaries. Without limiting the foregoing,
Buyer agrees that it shall provide (or cause its Subsidiaries to provide) (i) each U.S. Company Employee listed in Schedule 7.04(a) for fiscal years 2011 and 2012 full participation in the Employee Profit Sharing Plan, (ii) each
U.S. Company Employee listed in Schedule 7.04(b) for fiscal year 2012 full participation and for fiscal year 2011 partial participation (based on the number of days in such fiscal year following the Closing Date) in the Executive Profit
Sharing Program, and (iii) each U.K. Company Employee for fiscal year 2012 full participation and for fiscal year 2011 partial participation (based on the number of days in such fiscal year following the Closing Date) in the Executive Profit
Sharing Program or the U.K. Affiliate’s profit sharing program as in effect on the date hereof, as applicable, in each of clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) consistent with the past practices of the Company and the U.K. Affiliate prior to
the Closing. Nothing in this Agreement shall require Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries to replicate any benefits arising under an occupational pension scheme, including any benefits which relate to old age, invalidity or survivors. 

Section 7.02. Severance. Notwithstanding Section 7.01, for a period of twenty-four (24) months
following the Closing, Buyer agrees to cause the Company and the U.K. Affiliate to provide severance to Company Employees according to the severance set forth in Schedule 7.02. 

  
 49 









 Section 7.03. Service Crediting for Buyer Plans. Buyer hereby agrees
that, from and after the Closing Date, Buyer shall grant all Company Employees credit for any service with the Company or the U.K. Affiliate earned prior to the Closing Date for eligibility and vesting purposes (but not for eligibility for or
benefit accruals under any defined benefit plan maintained by Buyer) and for purposes of vacation and sick day accrual under any benefit plan, program or arrangement established or maintained by or on behalf of Buyer on or after the Closing Date in
which the Company Employees are eligible to participate (the “Buyer Plans”) to the same extent such service was recognized under a similar Benefit Plan, except, in each case, (a) to the extent that such treatment would result
in duplicative benefits, or (b) under a Buyer Plan that is operated by a third party and does not permit the amendment of such Buyer Plan to credit such service. With respect to each Buyer Plan, Buyer or its Affiliate, as applicable, shall
(i) cause to be waived any eligibility waiting periods, any evidence of insurability requirements and the application of any pre-existing condition limitations under such Buyer Plan, and (ii) cause each Company Employee eligible to
participate in the Buyer Plans to be given credit under such plans for all amounts paid by such Company Employee under any similar Benefit Plan for the plan year that includes the Closing Date for purposes of applying deductibles, co-payments and
out-of-pocket maximums as though such amounts had been paid in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable Buyer Plan maintained by Buyer or its Affiliate, as applicable, for the plan year in which the Closing Date occurs. 

Section 7.04. Distribution of Employee Compensation Bonus Amount. 

(a) At the Closing, Sellers shall (i) cause the Company to irrevocably commit to pay through the Company’s next regular
payroll process a portion of the Company Employee Bonus Amount (less required applicable withholdings for federal, state, local or employment taxes) to each U.S. Company Employee set forth in Schedule 7.04(a) set forth opposite such U.S.
Company Employee’s name in Schedule 7.04(a); and (ii) cause the U.K. Affiliate to irrevocably commit to pay through the U.K. Affiliate’s next regular payroll process to U.K. Company Employees set forth in Schedule 7.04(a)
the amount (less applicable withholding taxes) set forth opposite such U.K. Company Employee’s name in Schedule 7.04(a); provided, that with respect to any individual Company Employee listed on Schedule 7.04(a), such
Company Employee is employed by the Company or the U.K. Affiliate, as applicable, on the Closing Date. 
 (b) At the Closing,
Sellers shall cause the Company to irrevocably commit to pay through the Company’s next regular payroll process a portion of the Company Employee Bonus Amount (less required applicable withholdings for federal, state, local or employment taxes)
to each U.S. Company Employee set forth in Schedule 7.04(b) set forth opposite such U.S. Company Employee’s name in Schedule 7.04(b); provided, that such U.S. Company Employee is employed by the Company on the Closing Date
and; provided, further, that prior to the Closing, the Company shall have obtained an executed agreement, in the form mutually agreed upon by the Parties on or prior to the date of this Agreement, (each a “Bonus Agreement”)
from each such U.S. Company Employee providing that one-half of the amount set forth opposite such U.S. Company Employee’s name in Schedule 7.04(b) shall be repaid to the Company in the event that such U.S. Company Employee is
terminated for cause or voluntarily terminates his or her employment with Buyer or its Affiliates (including the Company) before the earlier to occur of (i) December 1, 2012 or (ii) the first anniversary of the Closing Date;
provided however, that such repayment obligations may be waived by Sellers’ Representative in his sole discretion. 

  
 50 









 (c) Any portion of the Company Employee Bonus Amount repaid to the Company after the
Closing pursuant to any Bonus Agreement shall be distributed to the Sellers’ Representative for distribution to Sellers identified as holders of the U.S. Shares on Exhibit A, in the proportions set forth on Exhibit A.

 (d) The payments made pursuant to Sections 7.04(a) and 7.04(b) include the amount due to each Company Employee
who participates in the Executive Profit Sharing Program through the Closing Date and shall reduce any amounts due to such Company Employees pursuant to the Executive Profit Share Program at year end. 

(e) If a U.S. Company Employee fails to repay any amount owed pursuant to Section 7.04(b), the Company shall, to the extent
permitted by Law, assign its rights to proceed against such U.S. Company Employee as is necessary to permit the Sellers to recover from the U.S. Company Employee the amount of such repayment; provided that the Company shall not be required to
assign any right to proceed against such Company Employee if the Company determines in its reasonable discretion that such assignment would be materially detrimental to its reputation or future business prospects. 

Section 7.05. Acknowledgement. Buyer and Sellers acknowledge and agree that nothing contained in this Article
VII shall be construed to limit in any way the ability of Buyer or the U.K. Affiliate to terminate the employment of any Company Employee from and after the Effective Time. 

Section 7.06. No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Nothing in this Article VII, express or implied, is intended to
confer any rights, benefits, remedies, obligations or liabilities under this Agreement upon any Person (including any Company Employees or other current or former employees) other than the Parties to this Agreement and their respective successors
and assigns to continued employment or any severance or other benefits from Sellers, the Company, the U.K. Affiliate, Buyer or any of their respective Affiliates. Nothing contained in this Article VII shall be construed as an amendment to any
Benefit Plan. Subject to applicable Law, unless otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, including this Article VII, no provision of this Agreement shall constitute a limitation on rights to amend, modify or terminate, either
before or after the Closing, any such Benefit Plan.

 53 









 
for a period of six (6) years after the Closing Date; provided, further, that the Fundamental Representations and the representations and warranties contained in

Agreement that by their nature are required to be performed after the Closing shall survive the Closing until fully performed or fulfilled. Notwithstanding the preceding two sentences, any breach or inaccuracy of any covenant, agreement,
representation or warranty in respect of which indemnity may be sought under this Agreement shall survive the time at which it would otherwise terminate pursuant to the preceding two sentences, if notice of the breach or inaccuracy thereof giving
rise to such right of indemnity shall have been given to the Party against whom such indemnity may be sought prior to such time. 
 Section 9.02. Indemnification. 
 (a) Except with respect to
matters relating to Taxes, which are addressed in Article VI, and subject to the provisions of this Section 9.02, effective at and after the Closing, Sellers, jointly and severally, agree to indemnify Buyer and its Affiliates
(excluding the U.K. Affiliate), equityholders, directors, officers, employees, successors, permitted assigns, agents and representatives (collectively, the “Buyer Indemnitees”) against and agree to hold each of them harmless from
any and all Losses incurred or suffered by any Buyer Indemnitee arising out of or relating to: 
 (i) any breach
of any representation or warranty of Sellers in Article III or in any Cross-Indemnity Agreement; provided that Sellers’ obligations pursuant to this Section 9.02(a)(i) with respect to any breach of
Section 3.19(b) due to a recall of any Products and Services shall be limited to only Losses arising out of or relating to those Products and Services subject to such recall sold prior to the Closing Date; 

(ii) any breach of any covenant or agreement made or to be performed by Sellers, the Company, the U.K. Affiliate or their
respective Affiliates pursuant to this Agreement or any Cross-Indemnity Agreement; or 
 (iii) the matters
listed in Schedule 9.02(a)(iii). 
 provided that (A) with respect to indemnification by Sellers pursuant to
Section 9.02(a)(i), Sellers shall not be liable for any breach of any representation or warranty of Sellers (x) attributable to a single course of conduct or related set of facts, events or circumstances unless the amount of Losses
suffered associated with such breach exceeds One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) (the “Mini-Basket”); (y) unless the aggregate amount of Losses associated with all such breaches exceeds Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000)
(the “Basket”), after which point Sellers will be obligated to indemnify the Buyer Indemnitees for all Losses, including those accrued in the Basket; and (B) in no event shall Sellers’ aggregate Liability arising out of or
relating to Section 9.02(a)(i) exceed Seventy-Five Million Dollars ($75,000,000) (the “Cap”), provided, further, that in no event shall the Mini-Basket, the Basket or the Cap apply to any Losses arising out of the
breach of any Fundamental Representation, which, in each case, the Buyer Indemnitees shall be entitled to recover in their entirety. 

  
 54 









 (b) Except with respect to matters relating to Taxes, which are addressed in Article
VI, and subject to the provisions of this Section 9.02, effective at and after the Closing, Buyer agrees to indemnify Sellers and their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, successors, permitted assigns, agents and
representatives (collectively, the “Seller Indemnitees”) against and agrees to hold each of them harmless from any and all Losses incurred or suffered by any Seller Indemnitee arising out of or relating to: 

(i) any breach of any representation or warranty of Buyer in this Agreement or any Cross-Indemnity Agreement; or

 (ii) any breach of any covenant or agreement made or to be performed by Buyer or its Affiliates pursuant to
this Agreement or any Cross-Indemnity Agreement; 
 provided that (A) with respect to indemnification by Buyer pursuant to
Section 9.02(b)(i), Buyer shall not be liable for any breach of any representation or warranty of Buyer (x) attributable to a single course of conduct or related set of facts, events or circumstances unless the amount of Losses
suffered associated with such breach exceeds the Mini-Basket; (y) unless the aggregate amount of Losses associated with all such breaches exceeds the Basket, after which point Buyer will be obligated to indemnify the Seller Indemnitees for all
Losses, including those accrued in the Basket; and (B) in no event shall Buyer’s aggregate Liability arising out of or relating to Section 9.02(b)(i) exceed the Cap, provided, further, that in no event shall the
Mini-Basket, Basket or the Cap apply to any Losses arising out of the breach of the representations and warranties contained in Section 4.01 (Corporate Existence and Power) and Section 4.02 (Authorization), which, in each
case, the Seller Indemnitees shall be entitled to recover in their entirety. 
 (c) For purposes of Sections 9.02, a
breach of any representation or warranty shall be determined without regard to any qualification or exception contained in such representation or warranty relating to materiality, Material Adverse Effect, material adverse effect, Company Adverse
Effect or any similar qualification, dollar threshold or standard applicable thereto. 
 (d) All Losses relating to Taxes,
which are addressed in Article VI, shall only be subject to indemnification under Section 6.05 (as such indemnification is qualified or limited by Sections 9.02(e), 9.02(g), 9.07, 9.08 and 9.09)
and the indemnification procedures set forth in Article VI shall control any indemnities relating to Taxes. 
 (e)
Regardless of whether any Party or any of their Affiliates or any of their respective Representatives had or should have had knowledge or notice of (i) the breach of, or inaccuracy in, any representation or warranty of the other Party,
(ii) the failure of any condition for its benefit to be satisfied, or (iii) the breach of any covenant for its benefit (or, in the case of any of clause (i), (ii) or (iii), any facts or circumstances which would result in any such
breach, inaccuracy or failure), for purposes of this Agreement, such Party or Parties shall not be deemed to have waived such breach or inaccuracy or condition or be limited or precluded in recovering any Losses related thereto. 

  
 55 









 (f) Notwithstanding any implication to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the limits
on indemnification set forth in Sections 9.02(a) and 9.02(b) do not in any way limit the obligation of any Party to indemnify the other Party or Parties from and against any Losses arising from any breach of a covenant, even if such
breach also constitutes a breach of a representation or warranty; provided that no Party may recover duplicate recoveries in respect of any single Loss. 
 (g) The Parties shall treat any payments made pursuant to Section 6.05 or this Section 9.02 as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for Income Tax purposes, unless a determination
(within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code (or any comparable provision of state, local or foreign Law)) requires such payment not to be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for Income Tax purposes. In the event that
adjustments to the Purchase Price are made pursuant to this Section 9.02, to the extent any such adjustment is not obviously allocated in its entirety to either the Company Purchase Price or the U.K. Affiliate Purchase Price, Buyer and
the Sellers’ Representative shall cooperate and mutually agree on adjustment to the Allocation. 
 Section 9.03.
Satisfaction of Claims. Claims made by a Buyer Indemnitee for indemnification under Section 9.02(a) shall be satisfied first from funds held in the Indemnity Escrow Account and then by payment of cash or other immediately
available funds from Sellers (such obligations of payment shall be joint and several amongst them), or, at the sole discretion of Buyer, by an offset to any Earn-Out Payment pursuant to Sections 9.04(b) and 9.04 (c). 

Section 9.04. Disbursement of Escrow Account; Buyer’s Offset Right. 

(a) On the six (6) month anniversary of the Closing Date (or in the event such date is not a Business Day, the Business Day
immediately following such date), the Escrow Agent shall release one-third (1/3) of the then existing Indemnification Escrow Amount to Sellers to be disbursed pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, less the amount of claims for indemnification
properly asserted by Buyer Indemnitees which have not been paid, and any unreleased amount shall be retained by the Escrow Agent. On the twelve (12) month anniversary of the Closing Date (or in the event such date is not a Business Day, the
Business Day immediately following such date), the Escrow Agent shall release one-half (1/2) of the then existing Indemnification Escrow Amount to Sellers to be disbursed pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, less the amount of claims for
indemnification properly asserted by Buyer Indemnitees which have not been paid, and any unreleased amount shall be retained by the Escrow Agent. On the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the Closing Date (or in the event such date is not a
Business Day, the Business Day immediately following such date), the Escrow Agent shall release the then remaining Indemnification Escrow Amount (and any interest earned thereon) to Sellers to be disbursed pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, less the
amount of claims for indemnification properly asserted by Buyer Indemnitees which have not been paid, and any unreleased amount shall be retained by the Escrow Agent. The amount of the Indemnification Escrow Amount (and any interest earned thereon)
so retained shall be released by the Escrow Agent (to the extent not utilized to pay Buyer Indemnitees for any such claims resolved in favor of Buyer Indemnitees) in accordance with the resolution of such claims to Sellers to be disbursed pursuant
to the Escrow Agreement. 

  
 56 









 (b) Buyer shall have the right to deduct from and offset against any Earn-Out Payment, the
amount of any Losses in respect of which it is agreed by the Parties in writing, or otherwise finally determined pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, that any Buyer Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification hereunder, including pursuant to
Article VI and Section 9.02, and for which such Buyer Indemnitee has not already received an indemnification payment under this Article IX. 
 (c) Notwithstanding anything expressed or implied in this Article IX to the contrary, in the event that a Buyer Indemnitee has (i) delivered to Sellers an indemnification claim pursuant to
Section 9.04 and (ii) such indemnification claim has not been fully and finally agreed to or resolved pursuant to this Agreement, including, as applicable, payment in full of any amounts in respect thereof to the Buyer Indemnitee
(each, an “Unresolved Claim”), then with respect to the aggregate amount of any Losses claimed by any Buyer Indemnitee under an Unresolved Claim which is in excess of the amount then in the Indemnity Escrow Account (the
“Unresolved Claim Amount”), the Parties agree that, with respect to any Unresolved Claim Amount that exists prior to the payment of any Earn-Out Payment, Buyer shall be entitled to holdback from the amount of such Earn-Out Payment
otherwise payable hereunder the full amount of such Unresolved Claim Amount. Upon final agreement by the Parties or other final determination hereunder of any Unresolved Claim, (A) Buyer shall be entitled to retain for its own account, and
deduct from and off-set against the Earn-Out Payment, any amount of such Unresolved Claim that is finally agreed or determined to be payable to any Buyer Indemnitee, or (B) Buyer shall, within five (5) Business Days of such final agreement
or determination, pay to the Sellers’ Representative, on behalf of Sellers identified as owners of the U.S. Shares on Exhibit A, any amount of such Unresolved Claim for which such right of setoff was determined to be not justified.

 Section 9.05. Indemnification Procedures. 

(a) The Party seeking indemnification under this Article IX (the “Indemnified Party”) agrees to give prompt
notice to any Party against whom indemnity is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) of the assertion of any claim, or the commencement of any Legal Proceeding in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to this Article
IX and shall provide the Indemnifying Party such information with respect thereto that the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request. The failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations
hereunder, except to the extent that such failure shall have actually prejudiced the Indemnifying Party. 
 (b) The
Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any claim in respect of which indemnity may be sought under Section 9.02 which is asserted by any third party (“Third-Party Claim”) and, subject to
the limitations set forth in this Section 9.05, shall be entitled to control and appoint lead counsel (subject to the written approval of the Indemnified Party which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) for such
defense or resolution, in each case at the Indemnifying Party’s expense. The Indemnifying Party shall not have any indemnification obligation with respect to any Third-Party Claim settled without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying
Party. 

  
 57 









 (c) The Indemnifying Party shall notify the Indemnified Party within thirty
(30) Business Days after having received notice from the Indemnified Party of the Third-Party Claim with respect to whether or not it is exercising its right to defend the Indemnified Party against the Third-Party Claim. If the Indemnifying
Party does not notify the Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying Party elects to defend the Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 9.02(b) within thirty (30) Business Days after receipt of any notice of such Third-Party Claim,
then the Indemnified Party shall defend, and be reimbursed for its reasonable cost and expense (but only if the Indemnified Party is actually entitled to indemnification hereunder and subject to the limitations contained in this
Section 9.05(c)) in regard to the Third-Party Claim with counsel selected by the Indemnified Party, in all appropriate proceedings, which proceedings shall be prosecuted diligently by the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party
assumes the control of the defense of any Third-Party Claim, (i) the Indemnifying Party shall obtain the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, before entering into any
settlement or other resolution of such Third-Party Claim or before conducting any activity that would reasonably be expected to have an adverse impact on the Indemnified Party if (A) the settlement does not release the Indemnified Party from
all liabilities and obligations with respect to such Third-Party Claim, (B) the settlement imposes injunctive or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party or (C) the settlement requires admission of error, or admission of
responsibility, and (ii) the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such Third-Party Claim and to employ separate counsel of its choice for such purpose. The fees and expenses of such separate counsel employed by
the Indemnified Party pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be paid by the Indemnified Party; provided that, if the Indemnified Party reasonably determines, after consultation with its counsel, that there is a conflict of interest
(including one or more legal defenses or counterclaims available to it which are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party) that makes it inappropriate for the same counsel to represent both the Indemnified Party and
the Indemnifying Party, the reasonable fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party; provided, further, that in no event shall the Indemnifying Party be responsible for the fees and expenses of more than
one lead counsel for all Indemnified Parties and the reasonable fees and expenses of any local counsel necessary for such lead counsel to secure admission to appear before the relevant adjudicative forum. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume the defense of any Third-Party Claim (and shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of one counsel incurred by the Indemnified Party in defending such Third-Party Claim) if (A) the
Third-Party Claim seeks an order, injunction or other equitable relief or other relief for other than money damages against the Indemnified Party that the Indemnified Party reasonably determines, after conferring with its outside counsel, cannot be
separated from any related claim for money damages, provided that if such equitable relief or other relief portion of the Third-Party Claim can be so separated from that for money damages, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to assume
defense of the portion relating to money damages, and shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel incurred by the Indemnified Party in defending the balance of such Third-Party Claim, or (B) the potential Losses under the
Third-Party Claim would reasonably and in good faith be expected to exceed, (x) the applicable Cap minus the aggregate amount of all Losses that are subject to such Cap paid or subject to an outstanding claim for indemnification, from
time to time, by the Indemnifying Parties to all the Indemnified Parties (y) times two (2) under this Article IX; provided, however, that to the extent the Parties are not in agreement with respect to


  
 58 









 
the calculation of such potential Losses, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume the defense of the Third-Party Claim in accordance herewith until the Parties have agreed or a
final non-appealable judgment has been entered into, with respect to the determination of the potential damages; provided, further, that prior to such determination the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such
Third-Party Claim and to employ separate counsel of its choice for such purpose, and such separate counsel fees shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party. 
 (d) Each Party shall cooperate, and cause its Affiliates to cooperate, in the defense or prosecution of any Third-Party Claim and shall furnish or cause to be furnished such records, information and
testimony, and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials or appeals, as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith, provided that no Party shall have an obligation to cooperate, make available personnel or
disclose any documents or other information (i) that such Party reasonably believes may, after undertaking commercially reasonable efforts to provide such documents and information in a manner which would protect such privilege or protections
(including entering into customary joint defense arrangements), adversely affect the attorney-client privilege or work product protections related to such document or other information, or (ii) if Sellers or any of their Affiliates, on the one
hand, and Buyer or any of its Affiliates, on the other hand, are adverse parties in a litigation and such assistance, testimony, documents or other information is reasonably pertinent thereto; provided that this clause (d) shall not
limit in any respect any rights a Party may have with respect to discovery or the production of documents or other information in connection with any such litigation. 
 (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, this Section 9.05 shall not apply to Tax Claims, which shall be governed exclusively by Section 6.05. 

Section 9.06. [Intentionally Deleted]. 
 Section 9.07. Calculation of Losses. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement: 
 (a) No Buyer Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification under Article VI or this Article IX to the extent a Liability or reserve relating to the matter giving rise to such Losses
has been included in the calculation of Final Closing Net Working Capital. 
 (b) The amount of any Loss for which an
Indemnified Party claims indemnification under this Agreement (i) shall be reduced (but not below zero) by the amount, if any, of the net reduction in Taxes actually paid by Buyer or its Affiliates with respect to such Loss, (ii) shall be
reduced by the amount of any payment actually received by such Indemnified Party with respect to such Loss from a third-party insurer or other third party (net of costs or expenses of recovery and applicable premiums and self-insured retentions);
provided that receipt of such proceeds, benefits or recoveries shall not be a predicate to indemnification for such Loss or require the Indemnified Party to use anything other than commercially reasonable efforts to collect any amounts
available under such insurance coverage, and (iii) shall not include any special, punitive or exemplary damages, except to the extent the Indemnified Party has become liable to a third party for such Losses due to a Third-Party Claim. In
addition, if, at any time 

  
 59 









 
following the payment of an indemnification obligation to an Indemnified Party with respect to a Loss under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party actually realizes any net reduction in Taxes or
receives any payment by an insurance carrier or other third party with respect to such Loss not previously effected as a reduction payment to clauses (i) or (ii) of this Section 9.07(b), then the value of any such amount
recovered by the Indemnified Party up to the amount of such indemnification payment hereunder, but net of any costs or expenses of recovery, shall promptly be repaid by such Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party; provided, however, that
the Basket shall not be deemed exceeded if such recovery by the Indemnified Party causes the aggregate amount of Losses subject to the Basket to fall below the amount of the Basket; provided, further, that such Indemnified Party shall
not make such repayment to the extent the applicable Cap has been exceeded. An Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to pursue all legal rights and remedies available in order to mitigate Losses for which indemnification is
provided to it under this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, each Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to pursue, and to cause its Affiliates to pursue, all reductions in Taxes and insurance or other third-party
recoveries to which it may be entitled in connection with any Loss it incurs, and the Parties shall cooperate with each other in pursuing insurance and other third-party claims with respect to any such Losses. 

(c) In the event an Indemnified Party shall recover Losses in respect of a claim of indemnification under Article VI or this
Article IX, no other Indemnified Party shall be entitled to recover the same Losses in respect of a claim for indemnification. 
 Section 9.08. Assignment of Claims. If an Indemnified Party receives any payment from an Indemnifying Party in respect of any Losses pursuant to Section 9.02 or
Article VI and the Indemnified Party could have recovered all or a part of such Losses from a third party (a “Potential Contributor”) based on the underlying claim asserted against the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified
Party shall, to the extent permitted by Law and any pertinent Contract, assign such of its rights to proceed against the Potential Contributor as are necessary to permit the Indemnifying Party to recover from the Potential Contributor the amount of
such payment; provided that the Indemnified Party shall not be required to assign any right to proceed against a Potential Contributor if the Indemnified Party determines in its reasonable discretion that such assignment would be materially
detrimental to its reputation or future business prospects. 
 Section 9.09. Exclusivity. From and
after the Closing, absent fraud, the rights of the parties to indemnification under Article VI or this Article IX shall be the exclusive remedies of the Parties subsequent to the Closing Date with respect to the recovery of any money
damages any Buyer Indemnitee or Seller Indemnitee may incur arising from or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (it being understood that nothing in this Section 9.09 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall
limit the Parties’ rights to specific performance or injunctive relief). 
 ARTICLE X 

TERMINATION 
 Section 10.01. Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing: 
 (a) by mutual written agreement of the Sellers’ Representative and Buyer; 

  
 60 









 (b) by either Buyer or Sellers if any Governmental Authority having competent jurisdiction
has issued a final, non-appealable order, decree, ruling or injunction (other than a temporary restraining order) or taken any other action permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the transactions contemplated by this Agreement;
provided that this right of termination shall not be available to any Party (Sellers shall be collectively deemed one Party) whose failure to comply with its obligations under this Agreement has been the primary cause of, or has primarily
resulted in, such order, decree, ruling, injunction or other action; 
 (c) by either Buyer or Sellers if any of the conditions
set forth in Sections 8.01, 8.02 and 8.03 of this Agreement, as applicable, have not been satisfied or waived within one hundred and twenty (120) days after the date of this Agreement (the “Initial Outside
Date” and, as the same may be extended in accordance with this Section 10.01(c), the “Outside Date”); provided that, if on the Initial Outside Date all of the conditions set forth in Sections 8.01,
8.02 and 8.03 have been satisfied or waived, other than the conditions (i) with respect to actions the Parties are required to take at the Closing itself as provided herein and (ii) set forth in Sections 8.01(a) or
8.02(b) (but solely in the case of Section 8.01(b) with respect to Closing Legal Impediments arising with respect to the HSR Act), then either Sellers or Buyer may elect to extend the Initial Outside Date for a further one hundred
twenty (120) days by providing written notice thereof to Buyer on or prior to the Initial Outside Date; provided, further, that this right of termination shall not be available to any Party (Sellers shall be collectively deemed one
Party) whose failure to comply with its obligations under this Agreement has been the primary cause of, or has primarily resulted in, the failure of the conditions provided in Sections 8.01, 8.02 or 8.03, as applicable, to be
satisfied before such date; 
 (d) by Buyer, upon written notice to the Sellers’ Representative, if there has occurred a
Material Adverse Effect; 
 (e) by Buyer, if Sellers shall have breached or failed to perform any of their respective
representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement, or if any representation or warranty of Seller shall have become untrue, in either case such that the conditions set forth in Sections 8.02(a) or 8.02(b)
would not be satisfied and such breach is incapable of being cured or, if capable of being cured, shall not have been cured not later than the later to occur of (i) the Initial Outside Date or (ii) the date sixty (60) days following
receipt by the Sellers’ Representative of written notice of such breach from Buyer; and 
 (f) by Sellers, if Buyer shall
have breached or failed to perform any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement, or if any representation or warranty of Buyer shall have become untrue, in either case such that the conditions set forth
in Sections 8.03(a) or 8.03(b) would not be satisfied and such breach is incapable of being cured or, if capable of being cured, shall not have been cured not later than the later to occur of (i) the Initial Outside Date or
(ii) the date sixty (60) days following receipt by Buyer of written notice of such breach from the Sellers’ Representative. 

  
 61 









 Section 10.02. Effect of Termination. In the event of termination
of this Agreement as provided in Section 10.01, this Agreement shall forthwith become void and there shall be no further liability or obligations hereunder on the part of any Party or their respective Affiliates except for the
obligations of the Parties pursuant to this Section 10.02, Section 5.05, Section 5.06 Article XI and Article XII; provided, however, that nothing herein shall relieve any Party from
liability for any breach of this Agreement occurring prior to the time of such termination. 
 ARTICLE XI 

SELLERS’ REPRESENTATIVE 
 Section 11.01. Appointment of the Sellers’ Representative. The Sellers’ Representative is hereby irrevocably and unconditionally appointed as the true and lawful
attorney-in-fact of each of the Sellers, to act as such Sellers’ representative in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents and, as such, to act, as such Sellers’ agent (with full power of
substitution). 
 Section 11.02. Authority. Sellers hereby grant the Sellers’ Representative with power
and authority in connection with the Transaction Documents: (a) to execute and deliver, on behalf of Sellers, and to accept delivery of, on behalf of Sellers, such documents as the Sellers’ Representative determines, in his or her sole
discretion, to be appropriate to consummate the Transaction Documents; (b) to do each and every act, implement any decision and exercise any and all rights that Sellers are permitted or required to do or exercise under the Transaction
Documents; (c) to (i) negotiate and compromise, on behalf and in consultation with Sellers, or any of them, any dispute that may arise under, and to exercise or refrain from exercising any remedies available under, the Transaction
Documents and (ii) execute, on behalf of Sellers, or any of them, any settlement agreement, release or other document with respect to such dispute or remedy; (d) to enforce, on behalf of Sellers, or any of them, any claim against Buyer
arising under the Transaction Documents; (e) to engage attorneys, accountants and agents at the expense of Sellers in connection with the Sellers’ Representative discharge of its obligations under and in connection with the Transaction

 62 









 
the Sellers’ Representative hereunder, and Buyer is hereby released and relieved from any liability to any Person for any acts done by Buyer in accordance with any instructions, notices,
writings, decisions or acts of the Sellers’ Representative required or permitted to be taken by the Sellers’ Representative hereunder. Upon receipt of any writing that reasonably appears to have been signed by the Sellers’
Representative, Buyer may act upon the same without any further duty of inquiry as to the genuineness of the writing. 
 (b)
The Sellers’ Representative shall be entitled to conclusively rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any statements furnished to it by any Seller or Buyer, and the Sellers’ Representative shall be entitled to act on the advice

take any such action.

hereby agrees to (a) indemnify the Sellers’ Representative (in his or her capacity as such) against and to hold the Sellers’ Representative (in his or her capacity as such) harmless from, any and all Losses that may at any time be

 Section 12.02. Amendments and
Waivers. 
 (a) Any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is
in writing and is signed, in the case of an amendment, by each Party to this Agreement, or in the case of a waiver, by the Party against whom the waiver is to be effective. 
 (b) No failure or delay by any Party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further

Law. 
 Section 12.03. Expenses. Except as otherwise provided herein, all costs and expenses incurred
in connection with this Agreement shall be paid by the Party incurring such cost or expense. 
 Section 12.04.
Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and assigns; provided that no Party may assign, delegate or otherwise
transfer any of its rights or obligations 

  
 64 









 
under this Agreement without the consent of each other Party hereto; provided, further, that Buyer may assign this Agreement and any and all rights or obligations hereunder, in whole or
from time to time in part, to any wholly owned Subsidiary of Buyer at any time. Any such assignor shall remain jointly and severally liable for its obligations and the obligations of its permitted assignee. Upon such permitted assignment, the
references in this Agreement to Buyer shall also apply to any such assignee unless the context requires otherwise. 

Section 12.05. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of
the State of Delaware, without regard to the conflicts of law rules of such state. The Parties expressly waive any right they may have, now or in the future, to demand or seek the application of a governing law other than the law of the State of
Delaware. 
 Section 12.06. Jurisdiction. The Parties expressly agree that any Legal Proceeding
seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any matter arising out of or in connection with, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby may be brought only in a United States District Court located in the State of Delaware or any
Delaware State court, so long as one of such courts shall have subject matter jurisdiction over such Legal Proceeding, and that any cause of action arising out of this Agreement shall be deemed to have arisen from a transaction of business in the
State of Delaware, and each of the Parties hereby irrevocably consents to the jurisdiction of such courts (and of the appropriate appellate courts therefrom) in any such Legal Proceeding and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by
Law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such Legal Proceeding in any such court or that any such Legal Proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Process in any such
Legal Proceeding may be served on any Party anywhere in the world, whether within or without the jurisdiction of any such court. Without limiting the foregoing, each Party agrees that service of process on such Party as provided in
Section 12.01 shall be deemed effective service of process on such Party. 
 Section 12.07. Waiver of
Trial by Jury. EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. 

Section 12.08. Mutual Drafting. The Parties are sophisticated and have been represented by attorneys throughout the
transactions contemplated hereby who have carefully negotiated the provisions hereof. As a consequence, the Parties do not intend that the presumptions of laws or rules relating to the interpretation of contracts against the drafter of any
particular clause should be applied to this Agreement or any agreement or instrument executed in connection herewith, including the other Transaction Documents, and therefore waive their effects. 

Section 12.09. Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be signed by digital facsimile and in any number
of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. This Agreement shall become effective when each Party shall have received a counterpart hereof
signed by the other Party. Until and unless each Party has received a counterpart hereof signed by the other Party, this Agreement shall have no effect and no Party shall have any right or obligation hereunder (whether by virtue of any other oral or
written agreement or other communication). 

  
 65 









 Section 12.10. Entire Agreement. The Transaction Documents embody
the entire agreement among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both oral and written, among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof.

 Section 12.11. Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is
held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other Governmental Authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in
no way be affected, impaired or invalidated so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party. Upon such a determination, the Parties shall negotiate in
good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent
possible. 
 Section 12.12. Disclosure Schedule. The Parties acknowledge and agree that (a) the
inclusion of any items or information in the Disclosure Schedule that is not required by this Agreement to be so included is solely for the convenience of Buyer; (b) the disclosure by Seller of any matter in the Disclosure Schedule shall not be
deemed to constitute an acknowledgement by Sellers that the matter is required to be disclosed by the terms of this Agreement, is material, has resulted in a Company Adverse Effect or Material Adverse Effect or is outside the Ordinary Course of
Business; (c) if any section of the Disclosure Schedule lists an item or information in such a way as to make its relevance to the disclosure required by or provided in another section of the Disclosure Schedule or the statements contained in
any Section of Article III reasonably apparent, the matter shall be deemed to have been disclosed in or with respect to such other section, notwithstanding the omission of an appropriate cross-reference to such other section or the omission
of a reference in the particular representation and warranty to such section of the Disclosure Schedule or Article III hereof; (d) except as provided in clause (c) above, headings have been inserted in the Disclosure Schedules for
convenience of reference only; and (e) the Disclosure Schedule and the information and statements contained therein are not intended to constitute, and shall not be construed as constituting, representations or warranties of Sellers except as
and to the extent provided in this Agreement. 
 Section 12.13. Specific Performance. The Parties
agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its specific terms or were otherwise breached, and that money damages or other remedies at law would not be an adequate
remedy for any such damages. Accordingly, the Parties acknowledge and hereby agree that in the event of any breach or threatened breach by any Party of any of its covenants or obligations set forth in this Agreement, the non-breaching Party shall be
entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations under this Agreement, in addition to any other remedy that may be available at law or in equity. The
Parties agree not to raise any objections to the availability of the equitable remedy of specific performance to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement, and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this
Agreement to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of the Parties under this Agreement.
