other party may reasonably request in connection with its review of the estimated Closing Statement, the Closing Statement and the Notice of Dispute. 

(f) Notices of Disputes. The Seller shall have a period of forty-five (45) days after the delivery of the Closing Statement by the
Purchaser to give the Purchaser written notice of any dispute regarding the amounts reflected in the Closing Statement. If the Seller does not give the Purchaser written notice of a dispute, the Closing Statement shall be deemed to have been
accepted and agreed to by the Seller in the form in which it was delivered, and shall be final and binding upon the parties hereto. Any written notice of a dispute regarding the Closing Statement shall set forth in reasonable detail the elements and
amounts with which the Seller disagrees (a “Notice of Dispute”). The Seller shall be deemed to have agreed to all other elements and amounts contained in the Closing Statement not specifically disputed. During the forty-five
(45) day period following the delivery of a Notice of Dispute, the Purchaser and the Seller shall make reasonable good faith efforts to attempt to resolve such dispute and agree in writing upon the final content of the disputed Closing
Statement or to stipulate to such portion thereof with respect to which there is no dispute. 
 (g) Dispute Resolution. If the parties
cannot resolve or stipulate to all disputes relating to the Closing Statement within the forty-five (45) day period referenced above, the matters with respect to which no resolution or stipulation can be reached (and, for avoidance of doubt,
only such matters) shall be submitted to and resolved by the independent accounting firm of PwC or another independent recognized international accounting firm mutually agreed by the parties, provided that it has not provided auditing,
consulting or other services to any of the parties hereto during the three years prior to the date hereof, or if such firm is unable or unwilling to serve, by a nationally recognized independent accounting firm mutually acceptable to the Seller and
the Purchaser (the “Accounting Experts”), who shall act as experts and not as arbitrators. The Purchaser and the Seller shall each promptly enter into a customary engagement letter with the Accounting Experts and shall instruct the
Accounting Experts that the written determination (which shall contain the underlying reasoning) of the Accounting Experts with respect to such unresolved disputed items and the accuracy of the Closing Statement as a result of the resolution of such
disputed items shall be completed and distributed to the Purchaser and the Seller as soon as practicable after the engagement of the Accounting Experts; provided that the Purchaser and the Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to
cause the Accounting Experts to make a determination within forty-five (45) days (or such other time as the Seller and the Purchaser shall agree in writing) after its engagement. The Purchaser and the Seller shall instruct the Accounting
Experts that its determination shall be made in accordance with this Agreement and, to the extent not inconsistent with this Agreement and otherwise applicable to the particular calculation, GAAP on a basis consistent with the Standards. In no event
shall the Accounting Experts’ determination of the unresolved disputed items be for an amount outside the range of the Seller’s and the Purchaser’s disputed amounts. The Purchaser and the Seller and their respective accountants shall
each make readily available to the Accounting Experts all work papers and books and records relating to the unresolved disputed items as the Accounting Experts may reasonably request to perform their function. The Purchaser and the Seller shall
cooperate with the Accounting Experts in connection with this Section 2.3(g). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Purchaser and the Seller shall each provide (or cause to be


  
 25 








 
provided) to the Accounting Experts all information and records, and to make available at any proceeding all personnel, as are reasonably necessary to permit the Accounting Experts to resolve any
disputes pursuant to this Section 2.3(g). Each of the Purchaser and the Seller may submit information or make presentations to the Accounting Experts relating to the item or items in dispute so long as a copy of any such submission is
provided simultaneously to the other party and so long as both parties are allowed to be present during any such presentation. The decision of the Accounting Experts shall be final and binding on all parties and the Closing Statement as determined
by the Accounting Experts (including the final amounts of Cash, Transaction Expenses, CCG Entities Indebtedness, LSB Receivables and LSB Payables, in each case as of immediately prior to Closing and Working Capital contained therein) shall
constitute the final and binding Closing Statement. The fees, costs and expenses of the Accounting Experts shall be borne equally by the Purchaser and the Seller. 

(h) Transaction Price True-Up Payment.

available funds to an account designated by the Purchaser to the Seller the amount of any such additional deficiency within three (3) Business Days after the final determination of the Transaction Price. 

(ii) If the Transaction Price, as finally determined as provided in Section 2.3(d) or Section 2.3(g), as applicable,
exceeds the Transaction Price as set forth in the Estimated Statement, then the Seller and the Purchaser shall deliver a joint written authorization to the Escrow Agent directing the Escrow Agent to release to the Seller all of the funds designated
for the Adjustment Escrow, and the Purchaser shall pay the Seller by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account specified in Section 2.2 (or to such other account as the Seller may indicate by written notice to the
Purchaser delivered at least two (2) Business Days in advance) the amount of the excess within six (6) Business Days after the final determination of the Transaction Price. If the Purchaser fails to pay such excess by such date, on and
after that date the Seller may deliver a written authorization to the Escrow Agent directing the Escrow Agent to release to the Seller an amount in cash equal to such excess from the Indemnification Escrow Fund, and the Indemnification Escrow Amount
(and Seller’s indemnification obligations with respect to such amount) shall be permanently reduced by such amount. If the excess exceeds the amount held in the Indemnification Escrow Account, then the Purchaser shall pay to the Seller by wire
transfer of immediately available funds the amount of any such additional excess within six (6) Business Days after the final determination of the Transaction Price to the account specified in Section 2.2 (or to such other account
as the Seller may indicate by written notice to the Purchaser delivered at least two (2) Business Days in advance). 

  
 26 








 (iii) If the Transaction Price, as finally determined as provided in Section 2.3(d)
or Section 2.3(g), as applicable, is equal to the Transaction Price as set forth in the Estimated Statement, then the Seller and the Purchaser shall deliver a joint written authorization to the Escrow Agent directing the Escrow Agent to
release to the Seller all of the funds designated for the Adjustment Escrow.

prescribed by ERISA, the Code and all other applicable Laws. Except as disclosed in Section 4.11(b) of the Company Disclosure Letter, all contributions to each Employee Plan have been timely made, except where such failure would not

respect to any Employee Plan, Section 6652 of the Code or (iii) a material tax imposed pursuant to Chapter 43 of Subtitle D of the Code. No CCG Entity nor any of their ERISA Affiliates have been involved in any transaction that could cause
any CCG Entity to be subject to liability under section 4069 of ERISA.

Governmental Entity or any other Person which has not been received or made, is required to be obtained by the Purchaser in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement to which it is a party by the
Purchaser or the consummation by the Purchaser of any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, except for (a) such filings, permits, authorizations, consents and approvals as may be required under, and other applicable requirements

and the representations and warranties contained herein, and the Purchaser: 

  
 46 








 (a) acknowledges and agrees that (i) neither the Company nor the Seller nor any Person on
behalf of the Company or the Seller is making any representations or warranties whatsoever, express or implied, beyond those expressly given in Article III and Article IV or in any certificate delivered pursuant to this

liability or responsibility whatsoever to the Purchaser on any basis (including in contract or tort, under federal or state securities laws, or otherwise) based upon any information provided or omitted, or based on statements or omissions beyond the
representations and warranties expressly given in Article III and Article IV of this Agreement. 
 Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, the Purchaser acknowledges that no representations or warranties have been made with respect to any projections, forecasts, estimates, budgets or prospect information that may have been made available to the

connection with, any “distribution” (as such term is used in Section 2(11) of the Securities Act) thereof. The Purchaser understands that the sale of the Shares has not been registered under the Securities Act or any state or foreign
securities laws by reason of specified exemptions therefrom that depend upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of its investment intent as expressed herein and as explicitly acknowledged hereby and that under such laws and applicable
regulations such securities may not be resold without registration under the Securities Act or under applicable state or foreign law unless an applicable exemption from registration is available.

the Shares, is able to bear the economic risk of such investment in the Company, and is able to afford a complete loss of such investment.

any other federal, state or foreign law or regulation or decree designed to prohibit, restrict or regulate actions for the purpose or effect of foreign ownership, monopolization or restraint of trade (collectively, “Antitrust

to the Termination Date); provided, however, that in no event shall Purchaser or the Seller, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates be required to (i) sell or otherwise dispose of, hold separate or agree to sell or

consummation of the transactions described herein. The Purchaser and the Seller will cooperate to determine strategy, and will coordinate all activities with respect to seeking any actions, consents, approvals or waivers of any Governmental Entity
and any litigation as contemplated by this Section 6.4(b). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Purchaser shall not require the Seller or the Company to, and the Company and the Seller shall not be required to,
take any action with respect to satisfying any Antitrust Laws which would bind the Company in the event the Closing does not occur. 
 (c)
All filing fees incurred in connection with the filings made under the HSR Act, including the HSR Fee, shall be borne by the Purchaser and the Seller equally. 

(d) Prior to the earlier of (i) the Closing Date and (ii) the date on which this Agreement is terminated pursuant to
Section 9.1, each party hereto shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, take any action that would reasonably be expected to hinder or delay the obtaining of clearance or the expiration of the required waiting period under the
HSR Act or any other applicable Antitrust Law.

(a) For six (6) years from and after the Closing Date, each CCG Entity shall, and the Purchaser shall cause each CCG Entity to, perform in
accordance with and otherwise give effect to all rights to indemnification (including rights relating to advancement of expenses) or exculpation existing in favor of each present and former director, manager and officer of a CCG Entity, determined
as of the Closing Date (each, a “D&O Indemnitee,” and collectively, the “D&O Indemnitees”), with respect to any costs or expenses (including court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses),
judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages or liabilities (collectively, “Costs”) incurred in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out
of matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Closing Date, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Closing Date, to the fullest extent that the applicable CCG Entity would have been permitted under the law of the jurisdiction of
its organization in effect on the date hereof to indemnify such Person (and advance expenses as incurred to the same extent that such Persons are currently indemnified by the applicable CCG Entity pursuant to such CCG Entity’s organizational
documents as in effect on the date hereof (and advance expenses as incurred at least to the same extent such D&O Indemnitees are currently indemnified by the applicable CCG Entity pursuant to such CCG Entity’s organizational documents as in
effect on the date hereof under applicable Law, provided that the Person to whom expenses are advanced provides an undertaking to repay such advances in the event of a non-appealable determination of a court of competent jurisdiction that
such Person is not entitled to indemnification). 
 (b) For six (6) years from and after the Closing Date, no CCG Entity shall amend its
organizational documents in any manner so as to modify the indemnification or exculpation provisions therein in such a manner inconsistent with this Section 6.6(b) or otherwise adverse to a D&O Indemnitee. 

(c) The provisions of this Section 6.6(c) are (i) intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each D&O
Indemnitee and each D&O Indemnitee’s heirs, legatees, representatives, successors and assigns, it being expressly agreed that such Persons shall be third-party beneficiaries of this Section 6.6(c) and (ii) in addition to,
and not in 

  
 54 








 
substitution for, any other rights to indemnification that any such D&O Indemnitee may have by contract or otherwise. The obligations of the Purchaser and the Company under this
Section 6.6(c) shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely affect the rights of any D&O Indemnitee to whom this Section 6.6(c) applies unless (x) such termination or modification is required
by applicable Law or (y) the affected D&O Indemnitee shall have consented in writing to such termination or modification. 
 (d)
Following the Closing and to the maximum extent permitted by Law, the Purchaser agrees not to, and to cause its affiliates not to, bring any action against any D&O Indemnitee in relation to their acts or omissions, in their respective capacities
as director, manager or officer of a CCG Entity prior to the Closing Date; provided, that nothing contained in this Section 6.6(d) shall preclude the Purchaser or any Affiliate thereof (including any CCG Entity) from bringing an
action against a D&O Indemnitee in relation to any act(s) or omission(s) of such D&O Indemnitee that (i) was committed in bad faith or was the result of Fraud, or (ii) as a result of or in connection with which such D&O
Indemnitee gained or received, directly or indirectly, any financial profit or other advantage to which such D&O Indemnitee obtained as a result of Fraud or criminal acts. 

(e) In the event that the Purchaser, a CCG Entity or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into
any other Person and is not the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, proper
provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of the Purchaser and the applicable CCG Entity shall assume all of the obligations thereof set forth in this Section 6.6(e). 

Section 6.7 Public Announcements. Prior to the Closing, the parties hereto shall consult with each other before issuing any press
release or otherwise making any public statements with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements and shall not issue any such press release or make any such public statement without the prior consent of
the other parties, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided that a party may, without the prior consent of the other parties, issue such press release or make such public statement (x) if it is required
to do so by law, regulation or the rules of any regulatory authority (including any recognized stock exchange) or (y) in the case it is compelled to do so in connection with legal proceedings or pursuant to a subpoena, order, requirement or an
official request issued by a court of competent jurisdiction or by any administrative, legislative, regulatory or self-regulating authority (including any recognized stock exchange) or entity towards such party, and (to the extent reasonably
practicable having regard to the disclosing party’s obligation to make disclosure and the nature of the proposed disclosure) the disclosing party provides advance written notice to the other party of the proposed disclosure and cooperates in
good faith with respect to the timing, manner and content of the disclosure.

 Section 6.8 Tax Matters. 

(a) Section 338(h)(10) Elections. 

(i) With respect to each CCG Entity other than International Environmental Corporation (“IEC”) and Koax Corp.
(“Koax”), LSB and the Purchaser shall jointly file timely elections under section 338(h)(10) of the Code to treat the sale of the Shares and the deemed sale of the stock of the other CCG Entities (other than IEC and Koax) as sales
by the Company and such other CCG Entities of all of their respective assets (the “Section 338(h)(10) Elections”) and shall, upon the Purchaser’s request, make any such available elections under any substantially similar
state or local Law. LSB shall take such actions as are deemed necessary to effect the Section 338(h)(10) Elections (including, without limitation, the timely filing of Internal Revenue Service Form 8023 (Elections Under Section 338 for
Corporations Making Qualified Stock Purchases)). 
 (ii) The Seller and the Purchaser shall agree, no later than 30 days after the delivery
of the Closing Statement, upon an initial allocation of the Transaction Price (plus the liabilities of the CCG Entities with respect to which a Section 338(h)(10) Election is to be made plus any other relevant tax items) among the CCG Entities
and for the deemed sale of assets resulting from the Section 338(h)(10) Elections, setting forth the estimated fair market values of the assets of each of the CCG Entities with respect to which a Section 338(h)(10) Election is to be made.
The Purchaser shall prepare draft Forms 8883 (Asset Allocation Statement under Section 338) (or successor forms) with respect to each such CCG Entity and provide such draft Forms 8883 to the Seller no later than ninety (90) days prior to
the due date of such Forms 8883. If, within fifteen (15) days after the receipt of the draft Forms 8883, the Seller notifies the Purchaser in writing that the Seller disagrees with a draft Form 8883, then the parties shall attempt in good faith
to resolve their disagreement within the forty-five (45) days following the Seller’s notification to the Purchaser of such disagreement. If the Seller does not so notify the Purchaser within fifteen (15) days of receipt of a draft
Form 8883, or upon resolution of the disputed items by the parties, the draft Form 8883 shall become a “Final Form 8883.” If the parties are unable to resolve their disagreement within the forty-five (45) days following any such
notification by the Seller, then the parties shall submit all such disputed items for resolution to the Accounting Experts whose decision shall be final and binding upon the parties and whose fees and expenses shall be borne equally by the parties.
Any Form 8883 delivered by the Accounting Experts shall be a Final Form 8883. The parties shall act in good faith to cause the Accounting Experts to deliver a Final Form 8883 within twenty (20) days after such submission. The parties shall
(i) be bound by all Final Forms 8883 for purposes of determining any Taxes and prepare and file their Tax Returns on a basis consistent with the Final Forms 8883, unless otherwise required because of a change in applicable Tax Law. No later
than fifteen (15) days prior to the date such Forms 8883 and any related documentation are required to be filed under the applicable Laws, LSB shall execute and deliver to the Purchaser a Final Form 8883 with respect to each of the CCG Entities
(other than IEC and Koax). With respect to any amounts paid by the Purchaser after the Closing Date, the Seller and the Purchaser agree that such amounts shall be characterized as goodwill. LSB, on behalf of the Seller, and the Purchaser agree to
file a Supplemental Form 8883 on a timely manner, as specified in the instructions to Form 8883. 
 (iii) Each of the Purchaser, LSB and the
Seller agrees that it shall not, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates to modify or revoke the Section 338(h)(10) Elections or any form filed in connection therewith, or any such available election under any substantially similar state or
local Law if requested by the other, without the written consent of such other. 
 (iv) The Purchaser, LSB and the Seller shall, and shall
cause their respective Affiliates to, file all Tax Returns in a manner consistent with the information contained in all Final Forms 8883 (including any Supplemental Form 8883) or any form filed in connection therewith, unless otherwise required
because of a change in applicable tax Law. 

  
 56 








 (b) Tax Returns. 

(i) Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, LSB shall in a timely manner prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be
filed all Seller Consolidated Returns and pay all Consolidated Taxes. All such Tax Returns to the extent related to the CCG Entities shall be filed consistent with most recent past practice unless failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to
cause any adverse effect (other than a de minimis one) on any CCG Entity or the Purchaser. For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties intend that any federal income Tax deductions incurred by the Company on the Closing Date related to the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement (including the payment of CCG Entities Indebtedness and Transaction Expenses) shall be treated as arising in the Pre-Closing Tax Period. 

(ii) The Seller shall prepare or cause to be prepared all Tax Returns (other than Seller Consolidated Returns) of the CCG Entities for all tax
periods that end on or before the Closing Date (“Pre-Closing Tax Returns”) and for all Straddle Periods (“Straddle Tax Returns”). Straddle Tax Returns shall be prepared on a basis consistent with most recent past
practice except to the extent otherwise required by applicable Laws. For each Pre-Closing Tax Return or Straddle Tax Return required to be filed after the Closing Date, no later than fifteen (15) days prior to the due date (including any
applicable extensions) thereof, the Seller shall deliver a copy of such Tax Return, together with all supporting documentation and work papers, to Purchaser for its reasonable review and comment. The Seller shall provide the Purchaser with such
Pre-Closing Tax Return or Straddle Tax Return, as applicable, (fully prepared and completed by the Seller, and revised by the Seller to incorporate the Purchaser’s reasonable comments) and the Purchaser shall cause such Tax Return to be
executed and timely filed with the appropriate Governmental Entity and provide a copy of such executed and filed Tax Return to the Seller. 

(iii) If the Purchaser objects to any item on a Tax Return prepared by the Seller pursuant to Section 6.8(b)(ii), the Purchaser
shall, within fifteen days after delivery of such Tax Return, notify the Seller in writing that it so objects, specifying with particularity any such item and stating the specific factual or legal basis for any such objection. If a notice of
objection is duly delivered, Purchaser and Seller shall negotiate in good faith and use their commercially reasonable efforts to resolve such items. In the event of any disagreement that cannot be resolved between Purchaser and Seller, such
disagreement shall be resolved by an accounting firm of national or international reputation mutually agreeable to Seller and Purchaser (the “Tax Accountant”), and any such determination by the Tax Accountant shall be final. The
fees and expenses of the Tax Accountant shall be borne equally by Purchaser and Seller. If the Tax Accountant does not resolve any differences between Seller and Purchaser with respect to such Tax Return at least five days prior to the due date
therefor, such Tax Return shall be filed as prepared by the Seller and amended to reflect the Tax Accountant’s resolution. The preparation and filing of any Tax Return that does not relate to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period shall be
exclusively within the control of the Purchaser. 

  
 57 








 (iv) In the case of Taxes (other than Consolidated Taxes) that are payable with respect to any
Straddle Period, the portion of any such Taxes that is attributable to the portion of the period ending on the Closing Date shall be: 
 (A)
in the case of Taxes that are either (x) based upon or related to income or receipts or (y) imposed in connection with any sale or other transfer or assignment of property (real or personal, tangible or intangible), deemed equal to the
amount that would be payable if the Tax period of the applicable CCG Entity ended with (and included) the Closing Date; provided that exemptions, allowances or deductions that are calculated on an annual basis (including depreciation and
amortization deductions) shall be allocated between the period ending on and including the Closing Date and the period beginning after the Closing Date in proportion to the number of days in each period; and 

(B) in the case of Taxes that are imposed on a periodic basis with respect to the assets or capital of the applicable CCG Entity, deemed to be
the amount of such Taxes for the entire Straddle Period (or, in the case of such Taxes determined on an arrears basis, the amount of such Taxes for the immediately preceding period), multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of
calendar days in the portion of the period ending on and including the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire period. 

(v) Unless otherwise required by Law, after the Closing, LSB and the Seller shall not, and shall not permit any of their Affiliates to, amend
any Tax Returns or change any Tax elections or accounting methods with respect to any CCG Entity relating to any Pre-Closing Tax Period to the extent such amendment or change would reasonably be expected to have a material cost to the Purchaser or
any CCG Entity without the consent of the Purchaser, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. 
 (vi)
Unless otherwise required by Law, the Purchaser shall not amend any Pre-Closing Tax Returns or Straddle Tax Returns without the prior written consent of the Seller to the extent such amendment would reasonably be expected to have a material cost to
the Seller. 
 (c) Books and Records; Cooperation. The Purchaser and the Seller shall cooperate fully as and to the extent reasonably
requested by the other party in connection with the filing of Tax Returns, any audit, litigation, examination or other proceeding (each a “Tax Proceeding”) and claim for refund, the determination of a Tax liability or a right to
refund with respect to Taxes imposed on or with respect to the assets, operations or activities of any CCG Entity. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other party’s request) the provision of records and information that
are reasonably relevant to any such Tax Return, Tax Proceeding, Tax refund or Tax determination and making Employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder.
Notwithstanding the above, the control and conduct of any Tax Proceeding that is a Third Party Claim shall be governed by Section 10.6. 

(d) Tax Contests. Notwithstanding Section 10.6, any Tax Proceeding relating to a Seller Consolidated Return or Consolidated
Taxes shall be exclusively controlled by Seller. Any other Tax Proceeding constituting a Third Party Claim shall be subject to the provisions of Section 10.6. 

  
 58 








 (e) Transfer Taxes. The Purchaser shall be responsible for all state and local transfer,
sales, use, stamp, registration or other similar Taxes (the “Transfer Taxes”), if any, resulting from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Purchaser and the Seller shall cooperate in good faith to minimize, to the
extent permissible under applicable Laws, the amount of any such Transfer Taxes and shall cooperate and timely make all filings, returns, reports, and forms with respect to such Transfer Taxes. The Purchaser and the Seller shall execute and deliver
to each other at the Closing any appropriate exemption certificate relating to any available exemption from Transfer Taxes. 
 (f) Tax
Refunds. The amount of any refunds of Taxes of any CCG Entity for which Seller is responsible pursuant to Section 10.2(b) (other than to the extent such refund results from the carryback of a Tax attribute of any CCG Entity relating
to a Post-Closing Tax Period and other than any such refunds reflected on the Closing Statement as finally determined) shall be for the account of the Seller to the extent provided in this Section 6.8(f). All other refunds of Taxes of
any CCG Entity shall be for the account of the Purchaser. The amount of any refund of Taxes of any CCG Entity for any Straddle Period shall be equitably apportioned between the Purchaser and the Seller in accordance with the principles set forth in
Section 6.8(b)(iv). Each party shall forward, and shall cause its Affiliates to forward, to the party entitled to receive a refund of Tax pursuant to this Section 6.8(f) the amount of such refund within thirty (30) days
after such refund is received, net of any costs or expenses or any Taxes incurred by such party or its Affiliates in procuring such refund. The Purchaser shall make and shall cause the CCG Entities to make elections under Section 172(b)(3) and
other relevant provisions of the Code, and under any comparable provision of any state, local or foreign tax law in any state, locality or foreign jurisdiction in which the CCG Entities are included in a Seller Consolidated Return, to relinquish the
entire carryback period with respect to any net operating loss, capital loss, or tax credit of the CCG Entities in any Tax period beginning after the Closing Date that could be carried back to a Pre-Closing period of the CCG Entities;
provided, however, that with respect to any such item for which an election cannot be made under applicable Law, the Purchaser shall be entitled to receive (and the Seller shall be required to pay to the Seller) the Tax refund received
or Tax benefit that results from such carryback. 
 (g) Tax Agreements; Powers of Attorney. Prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall
terminate all Tax Agreements to which any CCG Entity is a party such that no CCG Entity shall have no obligations thereunder following the Closing. 

(h) Consolidated Return Elections. Seller shall cause the Seller Consolidated Group to make (or refrain from making, as applicable) Tax
elections (including on a protective basis) so that the CCG Entities shall suffer no reduction in tax basis or other attributes pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-36. 

Section 6.9 Resignation of Officers, Managers and Directors. Unless directed otherwise by the Purchaser in writing, the Company
and the Seller shall cause all officers and directors of the CCG Entities to deliver their written resignations to the Purchaser or to otherwise by removed from office to be effective on or before the Closing. 

  
 59 








 Section 6.10 Notification of Certain Matters. The Company shall give prompt written
notice to the Purchaser of: (a) the occurrence, or failure to occur, of any event of which it has Knowledge that causes or would be reasonably likely to cause any representation or warranty of the Company or the Seller contained in this
Agreement to be inaccurate in any material respect at any time from the date of this Agreement to the Closing determined as if such representation or warranty were made at such time and (b) the failure of the Company or the Seller to comply
with or satisfy in any material respect any covenant to be complied with by such party hereunder (a “Disclosure Letter Update”). No Disclosure Letter Update shall have any effect for the purposes of indemnification hereunder or,
except as provided below, relieve the Seller or the Company from any breach or violation of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, unless the Purchaser provides the Company with a written termination notice
pursuant to Section 9.1(d)(i) within seven (7) Business Days after the expiration of any applicable cure period, if any, in respect of a breach described in a Disclosure Letter Update delivered pursuant to this
Section 6.10 and which uncured breach would otherwise give rise to a termination right by the Purchaser under Section 9.1(d)(i), then the Purchaser, in respect of such uncured breach, shall be deemed to have waived its right
to terminate this Agreement or prevent the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(d)(i) or Section 7.3 and such breach shall not be deemed to be a breach that would prevent the
Company or the Seller from delivering the certificate referenced in Section 8.2(b) or terminating this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(c). 

Section 6.11 Third-Party (Non-Governmental Entity) Consents. 

(a) The parties hereto shall give any notices to third parties (who are not Governmental Entities) and use, and cause their Subsidiaries to
use, their commercially reasonable efforts (including cooperating to the fullest extent reasonably practicable with the efforts of the other parties) to obtain any consents and approvals from such third parties triggered in connection with the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby (regardless of whether such consents are conditions to the closing of this Agreement); provided that the Seller shall be required to pay a fee to obtain a Person’s consent (if required
in order to obtain such consent) only with respect to Contracts listed in Section 7.3(c) of the Company Disclosure Letter; provided further (subject to the foregoing proviso) that the Seller shall not be required to pay a
fee to a Person in order to obtain such Person’s consent or to amend any existing Contract with such Person or to enter into any new Contract with such Person in order to obtain such Person’s consent. 

(b) With respect to any Material Contract for which any consent necessary in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated
hereby has not been obtained prior to the Closing, in the event that the Closing occurs, (i) the Seller shall, at the Purchaser’s request, use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any such consent after the Closing until either such
consent has been obtained or the Seller and the Purchaser mutually agree, in good faith, that such consent cannot reasonably be obtained and (ii) the Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the Purchaser with the same
benefits arising under any such Material Contract that is an Assigned Contract, including performance by the Seller as agent if legally and commercially feasible, provided that the Purchaser shall provide the Seller with such access to the
premises, books and records and personnel of Purchaser and the Company as is reasonably necessary to enable the Seller to perform its obligations under such Assigned Contract, and the Purchaser shall pay or satisfy the corresponding liabilities for
the enjoyment of such benefits to the extent the Company would have been responsible therefor if such consent had been obtained prior to the Closing.

 Section 6.12 [Reserved] 

Section 6.13 Existing Letters of Credit. The Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Seller and its
Affiliates (other than the CCG Entities) to be released in full from any letters of credit, surety bonds, guarantees and other contractual obligations of the Seller and its Affiliates (other than the CCG Entities) set forth on Section 6.13
of the Company Disclosure Letter, effective as of the Closing. The Seller shall, and shall cause its Affiliates (including the Company) to, cooperate with and to provide reasonable assistance to the Purchaser as may be reasonably requested by
the Purchaser in connection with the actions contemplated by this Section 6.13. 
 Section 6.14 Other Agreements.
Concurrently with the Closing, the Company shall, on the one hand, and, as applicable, the Seller shall, or shall cause one or more of its Affiliates to, on the other hand, enter into the following agreements (together, the “Ancillary
Agreements”). 
 (a) a Transition Services Agreement in a form and substance attached as Exhibit A to this Agreement (the
“Transition Services Agreement”), and 
 (b) two leases, in the form and substance as may be further negotiated by the
parties in good faith based on drafts exchanged prior to the date of this Agreement (the “Leases”) for the lease of the premises occupied by certain CCG Entities at 15 S. Virginia Avenue, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma and 518 N. Indiana
Avenue, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. 
 Section 6.15 Employee Matters. 

(a) The Purchaser shall take such action as may be necessary so that on and after the Closing and at all times prior to the first anniversary
of the Closing Date, the Covered Employees (as defined below) shall, for so long as their employment with the Company or any of its Affiliates continues during such period, be provided employee benefits, plans and programs (including deferred
compensation, pension, life insurance, welfare, profit sharing, severance, salary continuation and fringe benefits, but excluding 401(k), incentive compensation arrangements and retention awards) which, in the aggregate, are (i) not materially
less favorable than those currently provided to Covered Employees by the Seller immediately prior to the Closing or (ii) are substantially the same as those made available by the Purchaser to similarly situated employees of the Purchaser. Any
costs (including without limitation vendor and broker costs) associated with replicating current employee benefits, plans and programs for this purpose that are incurred prior to the Closing shall be borne by the Seller. For all purposes of this
Agreement, “Covered Employees” shall mean all Employees immediately prior to the Closing Date other than the Identified Employees. For purposes of eligibility to participate and vesting in all benefits provided by the Purchaser or
the CCG Entities on and after the Closing, the Covered Employees will be credited with their years of service with the CCG Entities and prior employers to the extent service with the CCG Entities and prior employers is taken into account under the
Employee Plans. The eligibility of Covered Employees to participate in any welfare benefit plan or program of the Purchaser and the CCG Entities on and after the Closing shall not be subject to any eligibility waiting periods, evidence of
insurability requirements or any exclusions or 

  
 61 








 
limitations for any pre-existing conditions except to the extent such individual was or would have been subject to such exclusion under similar Employee Plans. The Purchaser shall cause each
Covered Employee to be given credit under any welfare benefit plan or program of the Purchaser or the CCG Entities for all amounts paid by such Covered Employee under any benefit plans or programs offered by the CCG Entities or any Affiliate of the
CCG Entities prior to the Closing 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 plan or program maintained by the Purchaser for the plan year in which the Closing Date occurs. At the Purchaser’s request, the Seller will cause the CCG Entities to provide the Purchaser with information reasonably necessary
(including employment records and payroll records) to permit the Purchaser to give effect to and to comply with this Section 6.15(a), subject to applicable Law. 

(b) For a period of ninety-one (91) days (inclusive) following the Closing Date, the Purchaser and the CCG Entities shall not implement
any plant closing, mass layoff or other termination of employees that, either alone or in the aggregate (with any other termination of employees by the CCG Entities prior to the Closing Date), would create any obligations upon or liabilities for
Seller or its Affiliates under the WARN Act. Following the Closing Date, the Purchaser and the Company and each of their respective Subsidiaries hereby agree to indemnify the Seller and its officers, directors, employees, consultants, stockholders
and Affiliates for, and to hold each of them harmless from and against, all Damages (which shall not include, for avoidance of doubt, Seller Severance Costs) that any of them may suffer by reason of or in connection with any claim, proceeding or
suit brought against any of them under the WARN Act, or other Law relating to Employment, which relate to actions taken by the Purchaser or the CCG Entities or any of their respective Affiliates at any time after the Closing (including any discharge
or constructive discharge of any of the employees of the CCG Entities with regard to any site of employment or one or more facilities or operating units within any site of employment of the CCG Entities) or to the Purchaser’s pre-Closing
identification of any Identified Employee. 
 (c) The Seller shall bear and be responsible for all liabilities and obligations under any
written retention bonus, transaction bonus or similar arrangement of the CCG Entities, the Seller, LSB or any of their respective Affiliates entered into prior to the Closing applicable to any Employee whereby payment is triggered by the
transactions contemplated hereby, including, without limitation, the Retention Awards, and shall ensure that such bonuses are paid in accordance with their terms in effect as of the Closing Date. 

(d) Effective as of the Closing Date, each Covered Employee shall cease active participation in and benefit accrual under, and each CCG Entity
shall cease to be a contributing sponsor of, and participating employer in, any benefit plans, programs or arrangements, including the Seller 401k Plan, that are sponsored or maintained by Seller or LSB. Prior to the Closing, Seller or its
Affiliates shall fully fund, through the Closing, all employee contributions and employer matching contributions required pursuant to the terms of the Seller 401(k) Plan with respect to Covered Employees. Effective as soon as administratively
possible following the Closing Date, Purchaser shall cause, or cause its Affiliates to cause, the Covered Employees to participate in a defined contribution plan intended to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Code that includes a cash or
deferred arrangement which meets the requirements of Section 401(k) of the Code (the “Purchaser DC Plan”). The terms of the Purchaser DC Plan 

  
 62 








 
shall provide that Covered Employees shall have the right to make direct rollovers to the applicable Purchaser DC Plan of their accounts in the Seller 401k Plan, including if the entire account
balance is rolled over, a direct rollover of any notes evidencing loans made to such Covered Employees with respect to the transferred accounts. 

(e) To the extent that such coverage constitutes Seller Severance Costs, Seller shall provide COBRA continuation coverage (within the meaning
of Section 4980B of the Code and the Treasury regulations thereunder) to all Identified Employees who are M&A qualified beneficiaries (within the meaning assigned to such term under Q&A-4 of
Treasury regulation Section 54.4980B-9) with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement for the duration of the period to which such individuals are entitled to such coverage. Seller shall
take any and all necessary actions to ensure that Purchaser and its affiliates are not required to provide such continuation coverage to the extent of Seller Severance Costs to any such individual at any time. Purchaser shall reimburse Seller for
the cost to Seller of providing COBRA continuation coverage to the Identified Employees in excess of the limits of the Seller Severance Costs to the extent such limits are exceeded. 

(f) Effective as of the Closing Date: (a) to the extent such balances are not actually transferred, each Covered Employee’s account
balance, if any, in the health care flexible spending account and dependent care spending account (whether positive or negative, collectively, the “Transferred Account Balances”) under the health care flexible spending and dependent
care spending plan(s) of LSB or its Affiliates (collectively, the “LSB Flex Plan”) shall be credited or debited for booking purposes, as applicable, to one or more comparable plans of the Company, the Purchaser or their Affiliates
(collectively, the “Purchaser Flex Plan”); (b) the elections, contribution levels and coverage levels of the Covered Employees who participated in the LSB Flex Plan prior to Closing (the “Covered Flex Plan
Employees”) shall apply under the Purchaser Flex Plan in the same manner as under the LSB Flex Plan; and (c) the Covered Flex Plan Employees shall be reimbursed from the Purchaser Flex Plan for claims incurred at any time during the
plan year of the Purchaser Flex Plan in which the Closing occurs that are submitted to the Purchaser Flex Plan from or after Closing on the same basis and the same terms and conditions as under the LSB Flex Plan. 

(g) Except as provided in Section 6.15(e), the Seller agrees that any claims for welfare benefits incurred before the Closing Date
with respect to any Employees (or their covered dependents or beneficiaries) shall be the responsibility of the Seller or the insurers of the Seller’s welfare plans and the Purchaser agrees that any claims for welfare benefits incurred on or
after the Closing Date with respect to any Employees (or their covered dependents or beneficiaries) shall be the responsibility of the Purchaser or the insurers of Purchaser’s welfare plans. For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to health
care services provided in connection with in-patient hospitalization, such claim is deemed to incurred on the first day on which hospitalization occurs. In the event of an employee’s death or permanent disability, the claim for welfare benefits
shall be deemed to be incurred on the date the employee dies or is deemed permanently disabled under the applicable plan. 
 (h) The
provisions of this Section 6.15 are solely for the benefit of the Company, the Seller and the Purchaser, and no current or former Employee or any other individual shall be regarded for any purpose as a third-party beneficiary of this
Section 6.15. In no event shall the terms of this Section 6.15 be deemed to (i) establish, amend, or modify any 

  
 63 








 
Employee Plan, any “employee benefit plan” as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA, or any other benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement maintained or sponsored by Seller, the
Company or any of their respective Affiliates, (ii) alter or limit the ability of the Purchaser or any of its Subsidiaries (including any CCG Entity) to amend, modify or terminate any Employee Plan, employment agreement or any other benefit or
employment plan, program, agreement or arrangement after the Closing Date, or (iii) confer upon any current or former Employee, officer, partner, member, director or consultant, any right to employment or continued employment or continued
service with Purchaser or any of its Subsidiaries (including any CCG Entity), preclude the ability of Purchaser or any of its Subsidiaries (including any CCG Entity) to terminate the employment or services of any Employee, officer, partner, member,
director or consultant for any reason, or constitute or create an employment agreement with any such Person. 
 (i) Not less than ten
(10) Business Days prior to the Closing, the Purchaser shall identify in writing to the Seller each Employee that Purchaser determines will be terminated from employment with a CCG Entity effective at the Closing (each such Employee along with
any other Employees Purchaser otherwise requests that Seller terminate, an “Identified Employee”). Seller shall take all action necessary or appropriate to cause each Identified Employee to be terminated from employment with the
applicable CCG Entity effective at the Closing. Seller may cause the employment of any Identified Employee to be transferred to an Affiliate of the Seller (other than a CCG Entity). Seller shall be responsible for and shall bear all Seller Severance
Costs. Purchaser shall be responsible for and shall bear all Purchaser Severance Costs. 
 Section 6.16 Seller’s Access to
Information. From and after the Closing, the Purchaser shall (and shall cause the CCG Entities to) hold all the books and records of the CCG Entities existing on the Closing Date and not to destroy or dispose of any such books or records for a
period of five (5) years from the Closing, and thereafter, if it desires to destroy or dispose of such books and records, to offer first in writing at least ninety (90) days prior to such destruction or disposal to surrender them to the
Seller. During that five year period, the Purchaser shall (and shall cause the CCG Entities to), during normal business hours, and upon reasonable notice, make available and provide the Seller and its representatives (including counsel and
independent auditors) with access to the facilities and properties of the CCG Entities and to all information, files, documents and records (written and computer) that are not otherwise protected by legal privilege relating to the CCG Entities or
any of their businesses or operations for any and all periods prior to or including the Closing Date that they may reasonably require with respect to any reasonable business purpose (including any Tax matter) or in connection with any claim,
dispute, action, cause of action, investigation or proceeding of any kind by or against any person, and shall (and shall cause the CCG Entities to) cooperate fully with the Seller and its representatives (including counsel and independent auditors)
in connection with the foregoing, at the sole cost and expense of the Seller, including by making tax, accounting and financial personnel and other appropriate employees and officers of the CCG Entities reasonably available to the Seller and its
respective representatives (including counsel and independent auditors), with regard to any reasonable business purpose.

 Section 6.17 Insurance. 

(a) The Seller shall cause to be maintained through the Closing the Policies (or other policies providing substantially similar insurance
coverage). Prior to Closing, the Seller shall purchase “tail” insurance policies that meet the following criteria: (1) naming the D&O Indemnitees and CCG Entities as insureds; (2) containing a claims period of at least six
(6) years from the Closing; (3) issued by the current insurers or an insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating as the current insurers; (4) for (a) directors & officers liability with stand alone policy
limits of $20 million ($250,000 self insured retention), (b) employment practices liability with stand alone policy limits (including entity coverage) of $10 million ($100,000 self insured retention), (c) fiduciary with stand alone policy
limits of $5 million ($0 self insured retention) and (d) lawyers’ professional liability with stand alone policy limits of $1 million ($10,000 self insured retention) coverages (or for such lesser amount of coverage as Purchaser may agree
to in its sole discretion); and (5) otherwise in a scope at least as favorable as the existing policies or towers of policies with respect to acts, omissions, or wrongful acts that allegedly took place at or prior to the Closing and upon terms
and coverage substantially identical to those set forth in the existing policies. The premiums for such “tail” insurance policies shall be borne by the Seller up to a maximum of $250,000, with any excess over such amount to be paid
directly by the Purchaser at the time such policies are bound. The Purchaser shall not, and shall cause the CCG Entities not to, cancel or change the Policies or the “tail” policies purchased in accordance with this provision in any
respect, except as required by applicable Law. At Closing, the Seller shall provide to the Purchaser full copies of all historical general liability insurance policies in full that are in the Seller’s possession, as well as any secondary
evidence of the Seller’s historical general liability insurance. 
 (b) Following the Closing, Purchaser shall have the right to pursue
insurance recovery from the insurers under all such Policies, tails and historical general liability insurance policies for matters or claims existing, occurring or wrongful acts that allegedly took place at or prior to Closing relating in any way
to any CCG Entity. Additionally, following the Closing: (1) the Seller shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, seek to change any rights or obligations of any CCG Entity under such Policies, tails and/or general liability insurance;
(2) the Seller shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, cooperate with the CCG Entities in making claims under such Policies, tails and/or general liability insurance; and (3) Seller shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, promptly pay
over to the applicable CCG Entity any amounts that Seller or any such Affiliate may receive under such Policies, tails or general liability insurance with respect to losses experienced by such CCG Entity to the extent such losses were borne by such
CCG Entity. 
 Section 6.18 Separation/TSA Cooperation. As soon as possible after the date hereof, the parties shall cooperate
in good faith to (i) plan for the separation of, and separate, as of the Closing, logically and physically the CCG Entities’ systems and data from those of the Seller and its Affiliates (other than the CCG Entities), including the Seller
and LSB making available to the Purchaser human resources and other data reasonably requested by the Purchaser related to the CCG Entities and (ii) finalize Schedule A to the Transition Services Agreement setting forth the Transition
Services (as defined in the Transition Services Agreement), respectively. Each party shall bear its own costs incurred in connection with the activities contemplated in this Section 6.18 prior to the Closing. 

  
 65 








 Section 6.19 Non-Competition; Non-Solicitation. 

(a) LSB and the Seller acknowledge and agree that (A) the agreements and covenants contained in this Section 6.19
(i) impose a reasonable restraint on LSB and the Seller in light of the activities and business of the CCG Entities on the date of the execution of this Agreement and the current plans of the CCG Entities, (ii) are reasonable and valid in
geographical and temporal scope and in all other respects, and (iii) are essential to protect the value of the Business and (B) they have obtained knowledge, contacts, know-how and experience and that such knowledge, contacts, know-how and
experience could be used to the substantial advantage of a competitor of the CCG Entities and to the detriment of the CCG Entities. LSB and the Seller also acknowledge that the Purchaser has agreed to purchase the Shares in reliance on the covenants
made by LSB and the Seller in this Section 6.19, and that the Purchaser would not have agreed to purchase the Shares in the absence of the covenants made by LSB and the Seller in this Section 6.19. Subject to
Section 6.19(b), from and after the Closing and until the third (3rd) anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Restrictive Covenant Period”), LSB and the Seller
shall not, and shall cause their respective Affiliates not to, (i) engage in the Business in the United States or (ii) own an interest in, or manage, operate, control, or participate in or be connected with, as a director, officer,
employee, partner, member, stockholder, consultant, agent or otherwise, any Person engaged in the Business (“Competing Person”), in each case, directly or indirectly, alone or in conjunction with any other Person. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Agreement, for purposes of this Section 6.19, “Affiliates” of LSB and the Seller shall not include any Person solely based on being a stockholder or director of LSB. Each of LSB and the Seller
further agrees that, during the Restrictive Covenant Period, it shall not, directly or indirectly, for its own account or for the account of any other Person, engage in Interfering Activities. 

(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 6.19 to the contrary, nothing contained in this Section 6.19 shall
prohibit or restrict LSB, the Seller or any of their respective Affiliates from collectively owning up to an aggregate of three percent (3%) of the outstanding shares of any class of capital stock of any publicly traded Competing Person so long
as none of LSB, the Seller or any of their respective Affiliates participates in the management of such Competing Person. 
 (c) Each of LSB
and the Seller hereby agrees and stipulates, on behalf of itself and each of its Affiliates, that in any action or claim brought by LSB, the Seller or any of their respective Affiliates, or in any action or claim brought against LSB, the Seller or
any of their respective Affiliates, involving the provisions of Section 6.19(a), each of LSB and the Seller hereby waives, and hereby agrees to cause its Affiliates to waive, any claim or defense that the non-competition covenants
provided in Section 6.19(a) are unenforceable, void or voidable, for any reason, including, but not limited to, fraud, misrepresentation, illegality, unenforceable restraint of trade, failure of consideration, illusory contract, mistake
or any other substantive legal defense. 
 (d) From and after the date hereof and until the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Closing
Date, LSB and the Seller shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates and representatives (in such capacity) to keep confidential any knowledge and information relating to any CCG Entity or any portion of the Business which is not publicly
available, including information which (i) is in the nature of competitively sensitive information the disclosure of which could harm the competitive advantage of any CCG Entity or its successors with respect to the operation of the Business or
provides a competitive advantage to a competitor of any CCG Entity or its successors, or (ii) could otherwise materially harm any CCG Entity’s ownership or operation of the Business (each of the foregoing, the “Proprietary
Information”) which LSB, the 

  
 66 








 
Seller or any of their respective Affiliates (other than the CCG Entities) obtained with respect to the CCG Entities or their respective representatives unless and to the extent (x) publicly
available (other than as a result of an act or omission of LSB, the Seller or any of their respective Affiliates or representatives), (y) required by the rules of any national or international securities exchange or other self-regulatory entity
applicable to LSB, the Seller or any of their respective Affiliates or representatives, or (z) as requested pursuant to a subpoena, court order, civil investigative demand or similar judicial process or other oral or written request issued by a
court of competent jurisdiction or by international, national, state or local governmental or regulatory body. 
 (e) If any court of
competent jurisdiction shall at any time deem the duration or the geographic scope of any of the provisions of this Section 6.19 unenforceable, the other provisions of this Section 6.19 shall nevertheless stand and the
duration and/or geographic scope set forth herein shall be deemed to be the longest period and/or greatest size permissible by Law under the circumstances, and the parties hereto agree that such court shall reduce the time period and/or geographic
scope to permissible duration or size. 
 (f) Without limiting the remedies available to the Purchaser, LSB and the Seller acknowledge that a
breach by LSB or the Seller of any of the covenants contained in this Section 6.19 may result in material irreparable injury to the Purchaser and the CCG Entities for which there is no adequate remedy at Law, that it may not be possible
to measure damages for such injuries precisely and that, in the event of such a breach or threat thereof, the Purchaser or any CCG Entity shall be entitled to seek a temporary restraining order and/or a preliminary or permanent injunction, without
the necessity of proving irreparable harm or injury as a result of such breach or threatened breach hereof, restraining LSB and/or the Seller from engaging in activities prohibited by this Section 6.19 or such other relief as may be
required specifically to enforce any of the covenants in this Section 6.19. 
 (g) Each covenant in this Section 6.19
shall be construed as an agreement independent of any other provision in this Agreement, and the existence of any claim or cause of action of LSB or the Seller against the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, whether predicated on this Agreement or
otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by the Purchaser of each such covenant. The covenants contained in this Section 6.19 shall not be affected by any breach of any other provision hereof by any party hereto. LSB,
the Seller and Purchaser intend that the covenants in this Section 6.19 shall be deemed to be a series of separate covenants, one for each and every county of the United States. 

Section 6.20 Title Insurance. The Purchaser shall have the right to procure, with any title premiums, other title charges and
survey costs being at the Purchaser’s sole cost and expense, an owner’s policy of title insurance (or endorsements to any existing owner’s policy of title insurance issued to any CCG Entity) for each Owned Real Property (the
“New Title Coverage”), and the Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Purchaser in connection therewith, including by the Seller providing to Title Insurer, at or prior to Closing, (a) one or
more owner’s affidavits in form and substance customary for the jurisdiction in which the applicable Owned Real Property is located; (b) a non-imputation affidavit from the Seller in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Seller;
(c) one or more survey affidavits in form and substance customary for the jurisdiction in which the applicable Owned Real Property is located; and (d) such other information or documents as Title Insurer may reasonably request from the
Seller in connection with the Purchaser’s efforts to 

  
 67 








 
procure the New Title Coverage (collectively, the “Title Documents”); provided, however, in no event shall (i) obtaining the New Title Coverage be a condition
to the Purchaser’s obligations to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and (ii) any Title Document expand the Seller’s obligations or liabilities or decrease its rights or benefits under this Agreement. 

Section 6.21 Purchaser R&W Insurance. 

(a) Not more than five Business Days after the date of this Agreement, the Seller shall pay to the applicable Purchaser R&W Insurance
Provider the underwriting fee and premiums necessary to bind the Purchaser R&W Insurance Policy. Prior to or in connection with the Closing, the Seller shall pay the applicable Purchaser R&W Insurance Provider the remaining premiums
necessary for the issuance of the Purchaser R&W Insurance Policy up to a maximum of $2,500,000 (inclusive of the underwriting fee and premiums paid to bind the policy), with any excess over such amount to be paid directly by the Purchaser. 

(b) The Purchaser shall execute and cause to be executed all certifications attached to the Purchaser R&W Insurance Policy or otherwise as
may be reasonably required by the Purchaser R&W Insurance Provider. 
 (c) Following the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall not amend or
modify the Purchaser R&W Insurance Policy in any manner that would adversely affect the Seller.

any of their respective representatives or advisors relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, whether obtained before or after the execution hereof, to the Seller, or destroy all such documents, work papers and other materials and certify in
writing to the Seller that such destruction has been completed, in each case in accordance with this Agreement and the Confidentiality Agreement;

Section 9.3 Payment. In the event that this Agreement is terminated (x) by the Seller or the Company (i) pursuant to
Section 9.1(c)(ii), and if as of the date of termination (A) the condition set forth in Section 7.1(b) has not been satisfied, including but not limited to the waiting period applicable to the consummation of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement under the HSR Act is still pending as of such date of termination (or the condition set forth in Section 7.1(a) has not been satisfied as the result of a Prohibitive Order issued to enforce any
antitrust or competition law of the United States of America) and (B) all other conditions to closing have been, or are readily capable of being, satisfied, or (ii) pursuant to Section 9.1(b) as the result of a Prohibitive
Order issued to enforce any antitrust or competition law of the United States of America that has become final and nonappealable, or (y) by the Purchaser pursuant to Section 9.1(d)(ii), then the Purchaser shall promptly, but in no
event later than two days after the date of such termination, pay the Seller an expense reimbursement in the agreed amount of $4,000,000 (the “Payment”) in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account to be
indicated by the Seller. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the parties agree that if this Agreement is terminated under circumstances in which Purchaser is obligated to pay the Payment under this Section 9.3 and
the Payment is actually paid in full, the payment of the Payment shall be the sole and exclusive remedy available to the Seller with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein, and, upon payment of the Payment pursuant to
this Section 9.3, the Purchaser and its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees, shareholders and other representatives shall have no further liability with respect to this Agreement or the transactions
contemplated herein to the Seller or any of their respective Affiliates or representatives. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that the Payment is not intended to be a penalty, but rather is liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will
compensate the Seller in the circumstances in which such Payment is due and payable for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, which amount would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision. In no event shall Purchaser be entitled to payment of the Payment on more than one occasion.

Section 10.2 Seller’s Indemnification Obligations. Subject to the provisions of this Article X, from and after
the Closing, the Seller shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Purchaser Indemnitees from, against and in respect of, and pay or reimburse the Purchaser Indemnitees for, any and all Damages (whenever arising or incurred) arising out of or

For the purposes of determining under this Section 10.2 (i) whether any representation made by the Company or the Seller
herein is inaccurate or whether there has been a breach of any warranty and (ii) the amount of any Damages arising from such inaccuracy or breach, such 

  
 74 








 
representation and warranty (excluding each Scrape Excluded Representation) shall be considered without regard to any qualification by or reference to the words “Company Material Adverse
Effect,” “Seller Material Adverse Effect,” “material,” “materiality,” “in all material respects” or any similar words or qualifications contained therein (other than any qualification or reference
contained in the definition of any defined term used herein). 
 Section 10.3 Limitation on the Seller’s Indemnification
Obligations. The Seller’s indemnification obligations pursuant to the provisions of Section 10.2 are subject to the following limitations: 

(a) Purchaser Indemnitees shall not be entitled to recover under Section 10.2(a) (except with respect to any breach relating to the
representations and warranties contained in Section 4.10 (Taxes) or the Fundamental Representations) any Damages until the total amount which Purchaser Indemnitees would recover under Section 10.2(a) (except for the
representations and warranties contained in Section 4.10 (Taxes) or the Fundamental Representations) exceeds $2,730,000 (the “Deductible”), at which point the Seller shall be liable only for the amounts in excess of the
Deductible; provided that the Seller shall not be liable to indemnify Purchaser Indemnitees for any individual claim or claims relating to the same set of facts and circumstances pursuant to Section 10.2(a) until Purchaser
Indemnitees have suffered aggregate Damages arising out of such claim or claims relating to the same set of facts and circumstances equaling or exceeding $36,000, in which case the Seller shall be liable for all Damages arising out of such claim or
claims subject to the limitations of this Section 10.3; and provided further that all claims for which the Seller is not required to indemnify Purchaser Indemnitees because the associated Damages do not equal or exceed
$36,000 shall also not count towards the Deductible; 
 (b) Purchaser Indemnitees shall not be entitled to recover from Seller under
Section 10.2(a) (except with respect to any breach relating to the representations and warranties contained in Section 4.10 (Taxes) or Fundamental Representations) any Damages to the extent the aggregate claims under
Section 10.2(a) (except for the representations and warranties contained in Section 4.10 (Taxes) or the Fundamental Representations) of Purchaser Indemnitees exceed $2,730,000 (the “Liability Cap”). 

(c) The aggregate liability of the Seller for Damages of Purchaser Indemnitees under Section 10.2 shall not exceed the amount of
the final Transaction Price. 
 (d) Indemnification Escrow Fund. To provide a fund against which a Purchaser Indemnitee may assert
claims of indemnification under this Article X (each a “Purchaser Indemnification Claim”), the Indemnification Escrow Amount shall be deposited into escrow pursuant to the Escrow Agreement in accordance with
Section 2.2(b). The Indemnification Escrow Fund shall be held and distributed in accordance with this Article X and the Escrow Agreement. Each Purchaser Indemnification Claim shall be made only in accordance with this
Article X and the Escrow Agreement. A Purchaser Indemnitee shall seek monetary recourse for Purchaser Indemnification Claims solely as set forth in Section 10.3(h). 

(e) Reserved Amounts in the Indemnification Escrow Fund; Release in respect of Claims. In the event any Purchaser Indemnification Claim
is made by a Purchaser Indemnitee pursuant to a Notice of Claim delivered to the Seller prior to the Final Release Date, 

  
 75 








 
the Purchaser and the Seller shall negotiate in good faith to determine a reasonable amount to be reserved and held in deposit in the Indemnification Escrow Fund in respect of such Notice of
Claim (a “Reserved Amount”). If the Purchaser and Seller are unable to reach agreement as to the Reserved Amount by the Final Release Date, then the Reserved Amount with respect to such Notice of Claim shall be a reasonable amount
determined in good faith by the Purchaser. Upon the agreement by the Seller and the Purchaser Indemnitee or as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in respect of any Notice of Claim, any amounts payable with respect to any Damage
in a Notice of Claim to the Purchaser Indemnitee shall be payable in accordance with Section 10.3(h). The Seller and the Purchaser shall deliver executed instructions directing the Escrow Agent to deliver to the Purchaser such amount.

 (f) Release from Escrow. 

(i) On the Final Release Date or promptly thereafter, the Seller and the Purchaser shall deliver executed instructions, directing the Escrow
Agent to, subject to the terms set forth in the Escrow Agreement, disburse to the Seller the remaining portion of the Indemnification Escrow Amount which exceeds any Reserved Amounts in respect of Purchaser Indemnification Claims pending, but not
yet paid. 
 (ii) Following the Final Release Date, from time to time, upon resolution of any Purchaser Indemnification Claim and the
payment of amounts, if any, determined to be payable to the Purchaser from the Indemnification Escrow Amount, the Seller and the Purchaser shall jointly instruct the Escrow Agent to release to the Seller the excess of the then-current balance in the
Indemnification Escrow Fund over the aggregate Reserved Amounts in respect of all remaining unresolved Purchaser Indemnification Claims made prior to the Final Release Date, subject to the terms of the Escrow Agreement. 

(g) No Escrow Offsets. Purchaser Indemnitees may not offset funds held in or to be released from (i) the Adjustment Escrow against
any claims against Seller, LSB or any of their respective Affiliates, including Purchaser Indemnification Claims or (ii) the Indemnification Escrow Fund against any claims against Seller, LSB or any of their respective Affiliates, including
Purchaser claims pursuant to Section 6.16 or Section 6.19.

Claims; Required Recourse to Purchaser R&W Insurance Policy. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the parties agree that recovery for Purchaser Indemnification Claims pursuant to Section 10.2(a) shall be
subject to the following requirements: 
 (i) Until the Final Release Date and while funds remain in the Indemnification Escrow Account, the
Purchaser Indemnitees may seek recovery from the Indemnification Escrow Account for Purchaser Indemnification Claims arising under Section 10.2(a). After the Final Release Date, subject to Section 10.3(e), or at the point
when no funds remain in the Indemnification Escrow Account, neither the Seller, LSB nor any of their respective Affiliates shall have any liability for any Damages arising pursuant to Section 10.2(a) except with respect to any breach
relating to a representation or warranty contained in Section 4.10 (Taxes) or a Fundamental Representation. 

  
 76 








 (ii) With respect to any breach relating to any representation or warranty contained in
Fundamental Representations, at the point (i) when no funds remain in the Indemnification Escrow Account and (ii) no recovery is allowed under the Purchaser R&W Insurance Policy, the Purchaser Indemnitees may seek recovery from the
Seller subject to the applicable limitations contained in this Article X; provided, however, that after the point when no funds remain in the Indemnification Escrow Account and prior to seeking recovery under the Purchaser
R&W Policy with respect to any such breaches, the Purchaser Indemnitees may (and shall) seek recovery directly from the Seller in an amount up to, but not exceeding, $2,730,000 (which together with the Indemnification Escrow Amount is reflective
of the required retention amount under the Purchaser R&W Policy). 
 (iii) With respect to any breach relating to any representation or
warranty contained in Section 4.10 (Taxes), at the point when (i) no funds remain in the Indemnification Escrow Account, and (ii) no recovery is allowed under the Purchaser R&W Insurance Policy, the Purchaser Indemnitees
may seek recovery from the Seller subject to the applicable limitations contained in this Article X; provided, however, that after the point when no funds remain in the Indemnification Escrow Account and prior to seeking
recovery under the Purchaser R&W Policy with respect to any such breaches, the Purchaser Indemnitees may (and shall) seek recovery directly from the Seller in an amount up to, but not exceeding, $2,730,000 (which together with the
Indemnification Escrow Amount is reflective of the required retention amount under the Purchaser R&W Policy). 
 (i) Indemnification
Exclusive Remedy. 
 (i) From and after the Closing, except (i) as otherwise provided in Section 2.3, (ii) in the
event of Fraud, or (iii) claims by Purchaser Indemnitees for recovery under the Purchaser R&W Insurance Policy, the indemnification pursuant to the provisions of this Article X and Section 6.8 shall be the exclusive
remedy of the parties in respect of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement including for any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty, covenant, agreement or undertaking contained herein or in any
certificate executed and delivered pursuant to the provisions hereof; provided, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, none of the limitations set forth in this Article X shall apply to any
action for specific performance, injunctive relief, or other equitable remedy. For illustration purposes only, attached as Annex E are certain recovery scenarios, subject to the restrictions and limitations in this Agreement. 

(ii) Except as provided in Section 10.3(i)(i), no party hereto shall have any liability, and no party hereto shall make any claim
for any loss, whether legal or equitable, and the parties hereto hereby waive any right of contribution against each other, arising out of this Agreement relating to Environmental Laws (including the federal Superfund or Comprehensive Environmental
Response, Compensation and Liability Act and analogous state laws Superfund laws), whether based on contract, tort or strict liability. 

(j) For purposes of computing the aggregate amount of claims against the Seller, the amount of each claim by a Purchaser Indemnitee shall be
deemed to be an amount equal to, and any payments by the Seller pursuant to Section 10.2 shall be limited to, the amount of Damages that remain after deducting therefrom any insurance proceeds and any indemnity, contributions or other
similar payment, in each case, that are actually collected by a Purchaser Indemnitee from any third party with respect thereto. 

  
 77 








 (k) The Seller shall have no obligation to indemnify any Purchaser Indemnitees from and against
any Damages arising out of the breach of any of the representations or warranties made herein unless, within the Survival Period, Purchaser Indemnitee delivers to the Seller a Notice of Claim pursuant to Section 10.5 or
Section 10.6 relating to the breach which gives rise to such Damages. 
 (l) In the event of any matter giving rise to an
indemnity obligation of the Seller pursuant to Section 10.2, the Purchaser will take, or cause the applicable CCG Entities to take, reasonable commercial measures to mitigate the consequences of the matter as required by applicable law.

 (m) From and after the Closing, the Seller shall not have (and hereby releases) any right of contribution, indemnification or other
recourse against the Company or any other CCG Entity with respect to any pre-Closing breach by the Company or the Seller of any of their respective representations, warranties, covenants or agreements. 

(n) The Seller shall not have any liability pursuant to Section 10.2 in respect of any amount of Damages to the extent reflected on
the final Closing Statement as a deduction in determining the Transaction Price hereunder or to the extent reflected as a reserve in the Working Capital as finally determined pursuant to this Agreement. 

(o) In any claim for indemnification hereunder, the Seller shall not be required to indemnify any Purchaser Indemnitee for special, incidental,
exemplary or indirect damages, or for any punitive damages unless, in each case actually paid to a third party. 
 (p) The obligation to
indemnify the Purchaser’s officers, directors, employees and other Purchaser Indemnitees in accordance with this Article X shall be enforceable exclusively by the Purchaser and nothing herein shall grant such officers, directors,
employees or other Purchaser Indemnitees any individual rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities with respect to this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties may amend or modify the terms hereof in any respect without the consent of
such officers, directors, employees and other Purchaser Indemnitees. 
 (q) The Purchaser shall treat any payments that the Seller makes or
receives pursuant to this Article X as an adjustment to or refund of (as applicable) the Transaction Price for federal Tax purposes, unless a final determination (which shall include the execution of a Form 870-AD or successor form) with
respect to the Purchaser and the Seller causes such payment not to be treated as an adjustment to or refund of the Transaction Price for federal Tax purposes. 

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

  
 78 








 
The representations, warranties and covenants of the Seller and the Company and the Purchaser Indemnitees’ rights to indemnification with respect thereto shall not be affected or deemed
waived by reason of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Purchaser (including by any of its Affiliates, and its and their advisors, consultants or representatives) or by reason of the fact that the Purchaser, any of its Affiliates, or its
and their advisors, consultants or representatives knew or should have known that any such representation or warranty is, was or might be inaccurate or by reason of the Purchaser’s waiver of any condition set forth in Article VII.

 (s) The Seller shall have no obligation to indemnify any Purchaser Indemnitees from and against any Damages arising out of any
environmental sampling, testing or investigation of the soil, groundwater, surface water, sediments, air, or any other environmental media (“Environmental Tests”) by the Purchaser or its Affiliates, or authorized representatives or
agents of the Purchaser or its Affiliates, after the Closing on any of the Company’s properties unless the Environmental Tests are conducted (i) to comply with the specific and reasonably determined requirements of applicable Environmental
Laws or environmental Permits, (ii) in response to a request, claim, demand or investigation by a Governmental Entity, which request, claim, demand or investigation has not been invited or deliberately initiated by the Purchaser or any of
Purchaser’s Affiliates, or (iii) to respond to any environmental conditions that pose or could reasonably be expected to pose, in the reasonable judgment of Purchaser or its Affiliates, a material risk of harm to the health, safety and
welfare of the public, the Purchaser’s and its Affiliate’s employees, or the environment. 
 Section 10.4 Purchaser’s
Indemnification Obligations. 
 (a) Subject to the provisions of this Article X, from and after the Closing, the Purchaser
shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Seller Indemnitees from, against and in respect of, and pay or reimburse the Seller Indemnitees for, any and all Damages (whenever arising or incurred) arising out of or relating to:

For the purposes of determining under this Section 10.4 the amount of any Damages arising from such inaccuracy or breach, such
representation and warranty shall be considered without regard to any qualification by or reference to the words “Purchaser Material Adverse Effect,” “material,” “materiality,” “in all material respects” or
any similar words or qualifications contained therein (other than any qualification or reference contained in the definition of any defined term used herein). 

  
 79

rise to such Damages. 
 (vi) In the event of any matter giving rise to an indemnity obligation of the Purchaser pursuant to this
Section 10.4, the Purchaser will take reasonable commercial measures to mitigate the consequences of the matter as required by applicable law. 

(vii) In any claim for indemnification hereunder, the Purchaser shall not be required to indemnify any Seller Indemnitee for special,
incidental or exemplary damages, or for any punitive damages unless, in each case actually paid to a third party. 

  
 80 








 (viii) The obligation to indemnify the Seller’s officers, directors, employees and other
Seller Indemnitees in accordance with this Article X shall be enforceable exclusively by the Seller and nothing herein shall grant such officers, directors, employees or other Seller Indemnitees any individual rights, remedies,
obligations or liabilities with respect to this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties may amend or modify the terms hereof in any respect without the consent of such officers, directors, employees and other Seller Indemnitees. 

(ix) The Seller shall treat any payments that the Purchaser makes or receives pursuant to this Article X as an adjustment to or
refund of (as applicable) the Transaction Price for federal Tax purposes, unless a final determination (which shall include the execution of a Form 870-AD or successor form) with respect to the Purchaser and
the Seller causes such payment not to be treated as an adjustment to or refund of the Transaction Price for federal Tax purposes. 

Section 10.5 Non-Third Party Claims Procedures. In the event an Indemnified Party claims a right to payment pursuant hereto, such
Indemnified Party shall send written notice of such claim to the appropriate Indemnifying Party (a “Notice of Claim”). Such Notice of Claim shall specify the legal and factual basis for such claim. The failure by any Indemnified
Party so to notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability that it may have to such Indemnified Party with respect to any claim made pursuant to Section 10.2 or Section 10.4, as
applicable, except to the extent the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by such failure, it being understood that any Notice of Claim for claims in respect of a breach of a representation or warranty must be delivered prior to the expiration
of the applicable Survival Period for such representation or warranty. 
 Section 10.6 Third Party Claims Procedures. 

(a) Following the receipt of notice of a Third Party Claim, the party receiving the notice of the Third Party Claim shall promptly
(i) notify the other party of its existence setting forth with reasonable specificity the facts and circumstances of which such party has received notice and (ii) if the party giving such notice is an Indemnified Party, specifying the
legal and factual basis hereunder upon which the Indemnified Party’s claim for indemnification is asserted; provided that the failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party from liability hereunder with
respect to such claim only if, and only to the extent that, such failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party results in (x) the forfeiture by the Indemnifying Party of rights and defenses otherwise available to the Indemnifying Party with
respect to such claim or (y) actual material prejudice to the Indemnifying Party with respect to such claim. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, upon written notice delivered to the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days
following its receipt of notice of a Third Party Claim, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, and shall be
solely responsible for the payment of the fees and disbursements of such counsel. The Indemnified Party may take any actions reasonably necessary to defend such Third Party Claim after it notifies the Indemnifying Party of such Third Party Claim
prior to the time that it receives notice from the Indemnifying Party of its election in accordance with the preceding sentence to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim. In the event, however, that the Indemnifying Party declines or fails or
is not entitled hereunder to assume the defense of the Third Party Claim 

  
 81 








 
as provided herein or to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, in either case within such thirty (30) day period, then the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to
assume and control such defense and, for the avoidance of doubt, any Damages in respect of such Third Party Claim shall include the reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of counsel for the Indemnified Party as incurred. If the Indemnified
Party in good faith determines that the Third Party Claim involves an issue or matter which could reasonably have a material adverse effect on the Business or the assets of the Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party shall have the right at all
times to take over and control the defense, settlement, negotiation or litigation relating to any such Third Party Claim at the sole cost of the Indemnifying Party, provided that if the Indemnified Party does so take over and control, the
Indemnified Party shall not settle such Third Party Claim without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. 

(b) In any Third Party Claim for which indemnification is being sought hereunder, the Indemnified Party or the Indemnifying Party, whichever is
not assuming the defense of such action, shall have the right to participate in such matter and to retain its own counsel at such party’s own expense; provided that the Indemnifying Party shall pay the fees and expenses of such separate
counsel if (i) the employment of separate counsel shall have been authorized in writing by the Indemnifying Party in connection with the defense of such claim, (ii) the Indemnified Party shall have been advised by counsel that there may be
defenses available to the Indemnified Party that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party or (iii) the Indemnified Party’s counsel shall have advised the Indemnified Party in writing, with a copy
delivered to the Indemnifying Party, that there is a conflict of interest that could make it inappropriate under applicable standards of professional conduct to have common counsel. 

(c) The Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party (as the case may be) shall at all times use reasonable efforts to keep the other Party
reasonably apprised of the status of the defense of any matter the defense of which it is maintaining and to cooperate in good faith with each other with respect to the defense of any such matter. 

(d) No Indemnified Party may settle or compromise any claim or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to which indemnification is
being sought hereunder without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). No Indemnifying Party may settle or compromise any claim or consent to the entry of any judgment
with respect to which indemnification is being sought hereunder without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), unless such settlement, compromise or consent
(x) includes, as a condition of such settlement, compromise or consent, a complete and unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from any and all liability arising out of such claim, (y) does not contain any finding, admission or
statement suggesting any wrongdoing, violation of Law, or liability on behalf of the Indemnified Party and (z) does not contain any equitable order, judgment or term that in any manner affects, restrains or interferes with the business of the
Indemnified Party or otherwise encumbers any of the assets of the Indemnified Party. 

  
 82 








 Section 10.7 Recoveries from Third Persons; Duplicative Recoveries. 

(a) In any case where an Indemnified Party recovers from third Persons any amount in respect of a matter with respect to which an Indemnifying
Party has indemnified it pursuant hereto, such Indemnified Party shall promptly pay over to the Indemnifying Party the amount so recovered (after deducting therefrom the full amount of the expenses incurred by it in procuring such recovery), but not
in excess of the sum of (i) any amount previously so paid by the Indemnifying Party to or on behalf of the Indemnified Party in respect of such matter and (ii) any amount expended by the Indemnifying Party in pursuing or defending any
claim arising out of such matter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchaser Indemnitees shall not be required to pay over to the Seller any amounts recovered pursuant to the Purchaser R&W Insurance Policy, unless such amounts are duplicative
of amounts paid by the Seller with respect to any Purchaser Indemnification Claim. 
 (b) No Indemnified Party may recover Damages from an
Indemnifying Party under this Article X to the extent such recovery would result in duplicative recovery for the same Damages. 

ARTICLE XI

Section 11.1 Fees and Expenses. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with
this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the party incurring such costs and expenses.

other applicable party herein or in any document, certificate or writing delivered pursuant hereto by any other applicable party or (c) waive compliance by such other applicable party with any of the agreements or conditions contained herein.
Any agreement on the part of any party to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such party. The waiver by any party of a breach of any term or provision of this Agreement shall
not be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach, or a subsequent waiver of the same term or condition, or a waiver of any other term or condition of this Agreement. No failure or delay by any party hereto in exercising any right, power or
privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

 Section 11.4 Entire Agreement.
This Agreement (including the schedules and exhibits hereto), together with the Confidentiality Agreement, contains the entire understanding of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter contained herein and supersedes all prior
agreements and understandings, oral and written, with respect thereto, other than the Confidentiality Agreement. 
 Section 11.5
Binding Effect; Benefit; Assignment. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, and with respect to the provisions of Section 6.6, the
Persons benefiting from the provisions thereof all of whom are made intended to be third-party beneficiaries thereof. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any of the parties hereto
without the prior written consent of each of the other parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the parties hereto modify any rights under this Agreement that inure to the benefit of Persons that are not parties hereto, such
Persons shall be subject to such modifications. 
 Section 11.6 Amendment and Modification. Subject to applicable Law, this
Agreement may be amended, modified and supplemented by the parties hereto in any and all respects but only in a written instrument executed by all parties. 

Section 11.7 Headings. The descriptive headings of the several Articles and Sections of this Agreement are inserted for

Section 11.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an
original, and all of which together shall be deemed to be one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of the signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic transmission (including by PDF) shall be equally as
effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. 
 Section 11.9 Governing Law. This Agreement shall
be governed in all respects, including as to validity, interpretation and effect, by the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to its conflict of laws principles, to the extent such principles would require or permit the application
of laws of another jurisdiction. 
 Section 11.10 Disclosure Letters. 

(a) Disclosure of any fact or item in any Section of the Company Disclosure Letter shall be deemed to have been disclosed with respect to every
other Section to which such disclosure is relevant to the extent that the relevance of such item to such other Section is reasonably apparent on the face of such item. The inclusion of any specific item in any Section of the Company Disclosure
Letter is not intended to imply that the items so included or other 

  
 85 








 
items, are or are not material, and no party shall use the fact of the inclusion of any such item in any dispute or controversy as to whether any obligation, item or matter not described herein
or included in the Company Disclosure Letter is or is not material for purposes hereof. 
 (b) The specification of any dollar amount in the
representations and warranties or otherwise in this Agreement or in the Company Disclosure Letter is not intended and shall not be deemed to be an admission or acknowledgment of the materiality of such amounts or items, nor shall the same be used in
any dispute or controversy between the parties to determine whether any obligation, item or matter (whether or not described herein or included in any schedule) is or is not material for purposes of this Agreement (other than with respect to any
representation, warranty or provision of this Agreement in which such specification occurs). 
 Section 11.11 Consent to
Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. 
 (a) The parties hereto hereby irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of
the State of Delaware and the courts of the United States for the District of Delaware, and the appellate courts thereof, solely in respect of the interpretation and enforcement of the provisions of this Agreement, and in respect of the transactions
contemplated herein, and hereby irrevocably waive, and agree not to assert, as a defense in any action for the interpretation or enforcement hereof or of any such document, that it is not subject thereto, that it or its property is exempt or immune
from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise), that such
action may not be brought or is not maintainable in said courts, that such action is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue thereof may not be appropriate or that this Agreement or any such document may not be enforced in or by such
courts, and the parties hereto irrevocably agree that all claims with respect to such action or proceeding shall be heard and determined in such a Delaware state or federal court. The parties hereby consent to and grant any such court jurisdiction
over the person of such parties and over the subject matter of such dispute and agree that delivery of process or other papers in connection with any such action or proceeding in the manner provided in Section 11.3 hereof or in such
other manner as may be permitted by law, shall be valid and sufficient service thereof. 
 (b) EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES AND
AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH SUCH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY
JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION (WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) BETWEEN THE PARTIES DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED IN THIS AGREEMENT. Each Party certifies and
acknowledges that (i) no representative, agent or attorney of any other party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver, (ii) such party
understands and has considered the implication of this waiver, (iii) such party makes this waiver voluntarily and (iv) such party has been induced to enter into this Agreement by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications

 86 








 Section 11.12 Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction contained
in this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void, unenforceable or against its regulatory policy, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions contained in this Agreement
shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, and this Agreement shall be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable term, provision, covenant
or restriction or any portion thereof had never been contained herein. 
 Section 11.13 Specific Performance. 

(a) The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in
accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. Accordingly, the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement, without any bond or other security being required, such requirement
being hereby waived, and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement by a decree of specific performance without the necessity of proving the inadequacy of money damages as a remedy, this being in addition to any other remedy
to which they are entitled at law or in equity. 
 (b) The parties hereto acknowledge that the agreements contained in this
Section 11.3 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that, without these agreements, the parties hereto would not enter into this Agreement. Nothing in this Section 11.3 shall in any way
expand or be deemed or construed to expand the circumstances in which the Purchaser or any other Purchaser Related Party may be liable under this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby. 

(c) To the extent any party hereto brings any Proceeding to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions of this Agreement
(other than a Proceeding to specifically enforce any provision that expressly survives termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.2 hereof) when such remedy is expressly available to such party pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement, the Termination Date shall automatically be extended by (i) the amount of time during which such Proceeding is pending, plus twenty (20) Business Days, or (ii) such other time period established by the court presiding over
such Proceeding. 
 Section 11.14 Conflicts and Privilege. The parties agree that, in the event a dispute arises after the
Closing between the Purchaser or the Company, on the one hand, and the Seller, on the other hand, Vinson & Elkins L.L.P. may represent the Seller in such dispute even though the interests of the Seller may be directly adverse to the
Company, and even though Vinson & Elkins L.L.P. may have represented the Company in a matter substantially related to such dispute, or may be handling ongoing matters for the Company. The parties further agree that, as to all communications
between Vinson & Elkins L.L.P., the Company and the Seller, that relate in any way to this Agreement, the attorney-client privilege and the expectation of client confidence belongs to the Seller may be controlled by the Seller, and shall
not pass to or be claimed or controlled by the Company; provided that the Seller shall not waive such attorney-client privilege other than to the extent appropriate in connection with the enforcement or defense of its rights or obligations
existing under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event a dispute arises between the Purchaser or the Company and a Person other than the Seller after the Closing, the Company may assert the attorney-client privilege to prevent
disclosure of confidential communications by Vinson & Elkins L.L.P. to such Person. 
  

  
 87 








 Section 11.15 Seller Guarantee. All of the Seller’s obligations hereunder are
hereby guaranteed by LSB. LSB hereby acknowledges and agrees that it shall cause the Seller to comply with all of the Seller’s obligations under this Agreement (“Seller Guaranteed Obligations”), and in the event the Seller
fails to comply with any such obligations, it shall intervene to perform, or cause to be performed, such obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. This is an unconditional guarantee of payment and not of collectability. LSB agrees
that, for so long as the Seller is an affiliate of LSB, the Purchaser and the Seller may at any time and from time to time, without notice to LSB or LSB’s further consent, extend the term of this Agreement and make any agreement with the Seller
or any Person liable with respect to any of the Seller Guaranteed Obligations hereunder for the extension, renewal, payment, compromise, discharge or release thereof, in whole or in part, or for any modification of the terms thereof or of any
agreement between the Purchaser and the Seller or any such other Person without in any way impairing or affecting any of its Seller Guaranteed Obligations hereunder. LSB agrees that its obligations hereunder shall not be released or discharged, in
whole or in part, or otherwise affected by (a) the failure of any of the Purchaser Related Parties to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Seller or any other Person liable with respect to any of the Seller
Guaranteed Obligations; (b) any change in the time, place or manner of payment of any Seller Guaranteed Obligations or any rescission, waiver, compromise, consolidation or other amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of the
Agreement or any other agreement evidencing, securing or otherwise executed in connection with any of the Seller Guaranteed Obligations; (c) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of the Seller or any other Person liable
with respect to any of the Seller Guaranteed Obligations; (d) any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting the Seller or any other Person liable with respect to any of the Seller Guaranteed Obligations;
(e) the existence of any right of set-off which LSB may have at any time against the Purchaser Related Parties, whether in connection with any Seller Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise; or (f) the adequacy of any other means the Purchaser
may have of obtaining payment of any Seller Guaranteed Obligations. To the fullest extent permitted by Law, LSB hereby expressly waives any and all rights or defenses arising by reason of any Law which would otherwise require any election of
remedies by any of the Purchaser Related Parties. LSB waives promptness, diligence, notice of the acceptance of this guarantee and of any Seller Guaranteed Obligation, presentment, demand for payment, notice of non-performance, default, dishonor and
protest, notice of the incurrence of any Seller Guaranteed Obligations and all other notices of any kind, all defenses which may be available by virtue of any valuation, stay, moratorium law or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, any right
to require the marshalling of assets of the Purchaser or any other Person liable with respect to the Seller Guaranteed Obligations and all suretyship defenses generally. LSB acknowledges that it will receive substantial direct and indirect benefits
from the transactions contemplated by the Agreement and that the waivers set forth in this guarantee are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits. 

  
 88 








 Section 11.16 Purchaser Guarantee. All of the Purchaser’s obligations hereunder
are hereby guaranteed by NIBE. NIBE hereby acknowledges and agrees that it shall cause the Purchaser to comply with all of the Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement (“Purchaser Guaranteed Obligations”), and in the event
the Purchaser fails to comply with any such obligations, it shall intervene to perform, or cause to be performed, such obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. This is an unconditional guarantee of payment and not of
collectability. NIBE agrees that, for so long as the Purchaser is an affiliate of NIBE, the Purchaser and the Seller may at any time and from time to time, without notice to NIBE or NIBE’s further consent, extend the term of this Agreement and
make any agreement with the Seller or any Person liable with respect to any of the Purchaser Guaranteed Obligations hereunder for the extension, renewal, payment, compromise, discharge or release thereof, in whole or in part, or for any modification
of the terms thereof or of any agreement between the Purchaser and the Seller or any such other Person without in any way impairing or affecting any of its Purchaser Guaranteed Obligations hereunder. NIBE agrees that its obligations hereunder shall
not be released or discharged, in whole or in part, or otherwise affected by (a) the failure of any of the Seller Related Parties to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Seller or any other Person liable with
respect to any of the Purchaser Guaranteed Obligations; (b) any change in the time, place or manner of payment of any Purchaser Guaranteed Obligations or any rescission, waiver, compromise, consolidation or other amendment or modification of
any of the terms or provisions of the Agreement or any other agreement evidencing, securing or otherwise executed in connection with any of the Purchaser Guaranteed Obligations; (c) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership
of the Purchaser or any other Person liable with respect to any of the Purchaser Guaranteed Obligations; (d) any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting the Purchaser or any other Person liable with respect
to any of the Purchaser Guaranteed Obligations; (e) the existence of any right of set-off which NIBE may have at any time against the Seller Related Parties, whether in connection with any Purchaser Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise; or
(f) the adequacy of any other means the Seller may have of obtaining payment of any Purchaser Guaranteed Obligations. To the fullest extent permitted by Law, NIBE hereby expressly waives any and all rights or defenses arising by reason of any
Law which would otherwise require any election of remedies by any of the Seller Related Parties. NIBE waives promptness, diligence, notice of the acceptance of this guarantee and of any Purchaser Guaranteed Obligation, presentment, demand for
payment, notice of non-performance, default, dishonor and protest, notice of the incurrence of any Purchaser Guaranteed Obligations and all other notices of any kind, all defenses which may be available by virtue of any valuation, stay, moratorium
law or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, any right to require the marshalling of assets of the Seller or any other Person liable with respect to the Purchaser Guaranteed Obligations and all suretyship defenses generally. NIBE
acknowledges that it will receive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the transactions contemplated by the Agreement and that the waivers set forth in this guarantee are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.
