Closing Date), the Seller Representative shall deliver to Purchaser a written statement (the “Pre-Closing Statement”), setting forth in reasonable detail: (i) an estimate of the Working
Capital of the Acquired Companies (such estimate, the “Estimated Working Capital Amount”), which, shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP and this Agreement, including the definitions set forth herein, as applicable and presented

Amount, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account or accounts designated in writing by the Seller Representative;

(c) Acknowledgements. 

(i) The Parties agree that the purpose of determining the Final Net Purchase Price and comparing such amount against the
Estimated Net Purchase Price is to measure differences between the amounts set forth on the Pre-Closing Statement and the Post-Closing Statement, and the adjustment procedures set forth in this
Section 2.05 and Section 2.06 are not intended to permit the introduction of different accounting methods, policies, practices, procedures, classifications, or estimation methodologies for the
purpose of determining such amounts, provided that such accounting methods, policies, practices, procedures, classifications, or estimation methodologies are in accordance with GAAP and this Agreement, including the definitions set forth herein, as
applicable. Further, the Parties agree that (i) following the Closing, Purchaser shall not take, or permit the Acquired Companies to take, any action with respect to the accounting books and records of the Acquired Companies, or the items
reflected thereon, on which the Pre-Closing Statement is to be based, for the primary purpose of materially impeding the calculation of the Final Net Purchase Price, and (ii) the calculation of the Final
Working Capital Amount is intended to be a measurement of Current Assets and Current Liabilities of the Acquired Companies, in each case, as of the Reference Time and as determined in accordance with GAAP and this Agreement, including the
definitions set forth herein, as applicable, and the calculation of the Final Working Capital Amount as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.06 is not intended to take into account subsequent events, facts or
circumstances occurring after the effective time of the Closing, except for those developments that provide additional evidence with respect to conditions that existed as of the Reference Time in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards
Codification Topic 855, Subsequent Events (i.e., a Recognized Subsequent Event pursuant to FAS 855-10-25-1) and Sellers had
Knowledge of such condition prior to the Closing. 

  
 18 












 (ii) Notwithstanding anything herein, the determination of Estimated Net
Purchase Price and Final Net Purchase Price (and the components thereof) will (A) be in accordance with GAAP and this Agreement, including the definitions contained herein, as applicable and (B) be without duplication to any items counted
in such determination. 
 2.06 Post-Closing Adjustment Procedures. 

(a) Preparation of Post-Closing Statement. As promptly as practicable, but no later than 60 days after the Closing Date or such later
date as Purchaser and the Seller Representative agree in writing, Purchaser shall prepare and deliver to the Seller Representative a written statement (the “Post-Closing Statement”), setting forth Purchaser’s good faith
calculation of (i) the Working Capital of the Acquired Companies as of the Reference Time (the “Purchaser Proposed Working Capital Amount”), which, shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP and this Agreement, including the
definitions set forth herein, as applicable, and presented in a manner consistent with the pro forma Working Capital example attached hereto as Schedule 2.05(a), (ii) the Closing Indebtedness of the Acquired Companies as of the Reference Time
(the “Purchaser Proposed Closing Indebtedness Amount”), (iii) the Seller Transaction Expenses (the “Purchaser Proposed Seller Transaction Expense Amount”), (iv) the Closing Cash of the Acquired Companies (the
“Purchaser Proposed Closing Cash Amount”), (v) the Change of Control Payments (the “Purchaser Proposed Change of Control Payments”), (vi) the Paid Executory Period CapEx (the “Purchaser Proposed Paid
Executory Period CapEx”) and (vii) the resultant Final Net Purchase Price (the “Purchaser Proposed Final Net Purchase Price”). Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that, for the purposes of reviewing the Post-Closing
Statement delivered by Purchaser pursuant to this Section 2.06(a), and following delivery thereof, Purchaser shall afford, and shall cause the Acquired Companies to afford, the Seller Representative and its Representatives
(subject to executing a customary access letter as reasonably requested by Purchaser) commercially reasonable access during normal business hours to the books and records (other than privileged documents) of Purchaser, the Acquired Companies and
their respective Representatives. 
 (b) Disagreement by the Seller Representative. If the Seller Representative disagrees with the
Post-Closing Statement or the amounts or calculations included therein, the Seller Representative may, within 30 days after receipt of the Post-Closing Statement, deliver a notice to Purchaser specifying in reasonable detail the amounts or
calculations included in the Post-Closing Statement to which Seller Representative disagrees, the dollar amounts thereof, and the Seller Representative’s calculation thereof (an “Objection Notice”). Any Objection Notice shall
specify only those items or amounts as to which Seller disagrees. If the Seller Representative fails to deliver an Objection Notice during such 30 day period or delivers written notice accepting Purchaser’s calculation of the Post-Closing
Statement during such 30 day period, then the Purchaser Proposed Working Capital Amount, the Purchaser Proposed Closing Indebtedness Amount, the Purchaser Proposed Seller Transaction Expense Amount, the Purchaser Proposed Closing Cash Amount,
Purchaser Proposed Change of Control Payments, the Purchaser Proposed Paid Executory Period CapEx and the Purchaser Proposed Final Net Purchase Price, in each case, as determined by Purchaser and set forth on the Post-Closing Statement, as
applicable, delivered to Seller in accordance with Section 2.06(a) shall constitute the “Final Working Capital Amount”, the “Final Closing Indebtedness Amount”, the “Final Seller Transaction Expense
Amount”, the “Final Closing Cash Amount”, the “Final Change of Control Payments”, “Final Paid Executory Period CapEx” and the “Final Net Purchase Price” and be deemed final, binding, and conclusive on the
Parties for purposes of this Agreement. 

  
 19 












 (c) Dispute Resolution. 

(i) If an Objection Notice shall have been timely delivered by the Seller Representative to Purchaser pursuant to
Section 2.06(b), the Seller Representative and Purchaser shall, during the 30 days following such delivery, use commercially reasonable efforts to reach agreement on the disputed items or amounts. If, during such period,
the Seller Representative and Purchaser agree as to all of the disputed items with respect to Working Capital, the Closing Cash, the Closing Indebtedness, the Seller Transaction Expenses, or the Change of Control Payments amounts in dispute, as
applicable, then the Seller Representative and Purchaser shall execute a written acknowledgement of such amounts, and the same shall constitute the “Final Working Capital Amount”, the “Final Closing Indebtedness
Amount”, the “Final Seller Transaction Expense Amount”, the “Final Closing Cash Amount”, the “Final Change of Control Payments”, and the “Final Paid Executory Period CapEx”
as applicable, and the resultant “Final Net Purchase Price”, and all of which shall be deemed final, binding, and conclusive on the Parties for all purposes of this Agreement. If, during such period, the Seller Representative and
Purchaser are unable to reach agreement on all such items or amounts, then the items or amounts that remain in dispute shall be resolved by Deloitte & Touche LLP, or if such party cannot or will not serve in such capacity, a firm of
nationally recognized independent accountants having no material relationship with any Party and reasonably acceptable to both the Seller Representative and Purchaser (the “Accounting Referee”). 

(ii) Within 20 days of the retention of the Accounting Referee, Purchaser and the Seller Representative shall jointly submit
the matter to the Accounting Referee and instruct the Accounting Referee that it (A) shall act as an expert in accounting, and not as arbitrator, to resolve, in accordance with GAAP and the terms of this Agreement, only the matters specified in
any timely delivered Objection Notice that remain in dispute (each, a “Disputed Item”); (B) allow each of the Seller Representative and Purchaser the opportunity to present their arguments in separate, written correspondence or
other correspondence mutually agreed upon by Purchaser and Seller Representative; provided, however, that the Accounting Referee shall engage in no ex parte communication or meetings with the Seller Representative or Purchaser
(or any of their respective Representatives or Affiliates) regarding the Disputed Items without the written consent of the other party to such communication or meeting; (C) shall adjust the calculation of the Final Net Purchase Price based
thereon to reflect such resolution; and (D) shall determine the amount of each Disputed Item within the range established by the Post-Closing Statement and the Objection Notice, meaning that the Accounting Referee shall not determine the amount
of a Disputed Item higher than the highest amount set forth in either the Post-Closing Statement and the Objection Notice or lower than the lowest amount set forth in either the Post-Closing Statement and the Objection Notice; and (E) shall
deliver to Purchaser and the Seller Representative, as promptly as practicable and in any event within 30 days following the submission of the Disputed Items to the Accounting Referee for resolution, a written report setting forth the Accounting
Referee’s determination of the Disputed Items, which report shall include a worksheet setting forth the material calculations used in arriving at such determination and a calculation of the apportionment of the fees, costs and expenses of the
Accounting Referee in accordance with Section 2.06(c)(iii). Such report, and the adjustment to the calculation of the Final Net Purchase Price based thereon shall be final and binding upon the Parties for purposes of this
Agreement absent manifest error. 

  
 20 












 (iii) If requested by the Accounting Referee, Purchaser and the Seller
Representative agree to execute a reasonable engagement letter. The Accounting Referee’s cost, fees and expenses of such review and report in connection with its services as an Accounting Referee pursuant to this
Section 2.06(c) (including any retainer) shall be apportioned between the Seller Representative (on behalf of Sellers on the one hand, according to their Pro Rata Proportionate Share from the Seller Representative Expense
Account) and Purchaser (on the other hand) based upon inverse proportion of the Disputed Items resolved in favor of such party (i.e., so that the prevailing party bears a lesser amount of such cost, fees and expenses) as determined by the
Accounting Referee and set forth in the report of such Accounting Referee. However, initially, any retainer charged by the Accounting Referee shall be paid 50% by Purchaser and 50% by the Seller Representative (on behalf of Sellers according to
their Pro Rata Proportionate Share from the Seller Representative Expense Account), with such amount to be reimbursed by the Party responsible for paying the cost of the review in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence. 

(iv) If, for any reason, Purchaser fails to deliver the Post-Closing Statement within the time period required by
Section 2.06(a), the Pre-Closing Statement shall be considered for all purposes of this Agreement as being the “Post-Closing Statement” delivered by Purchaser pursuant to
Section 2.06(a) and the Seller Representative shall have all of its rights under this Section 2.06 with respect thereto, including the right to dispute the calculations set forth therein in
accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.06.

Working Capital Amount” means Working Capital as ultimately determined in accordance with this Section 2.06, (B) “Final Closing Indebtedness Amount” means the Closing Indebtedness as ultimately

determined in accordance with this Section 2.06, in each case, whether ultimately determined (1) as a result of the failure of the Purchaser to deliver a Post-Closing Statement within the time period required by
Section 2.06(a) (in which case the amounts set forth in the Pre-Closing Statement shall be final, binding and conclusive on the Parties for all purposes of this Agreement), (2) as a result of the
failure of the Seller Representative to deliver an Objection Notice within the time period required by Section 2.06(b) (in which case the amounts set forth in the Post-Closing Statement shall be final, binding and
conclusive on the Parties for all purposes of this Agreement), (3) by agreement of the Parties pursuant to Section 2.06(c) or (4) by the Accounting Referee pursuant to Section 2.06(c), or any
combination of the foregoing, and such amounts as so determined shall be final, binding and conclusive on the Parties for all purposes of this Agreement. 

(d) Cooperation. The Seller Representative and Purchaser shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates and Representatives to,
cooperate and assist as reasonably requested in the preparation of the Post-Closing Statement and the calculation of Final Net Purchase Price (and the components thereof) and in the conduct of the reviews of the Post-Closing Statement referred to in

2.07 Withholding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Purchaser, the Acquired Companies and the Escrow Agent, as
applicable, shall have the right to deduct and withhold from any payments to be made hereunder such amounts as Purchaser (or any Affiliate thereof) reasonably determines are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such
payment under the Code or any other provision of Applicable Law and to collect any necessary Tax forms from the Sellers and any other recipients of payments hereunder; provided, however that no amounts shall be deducted or withheld 

  
 21 












 under Section 1445 or Section 1446(f) of the Code with respect to any Seller that provides a
properly completed and duly executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 of such Seller ; provided, further, that Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Sellers at least
five (5) Business Days written notice prior to making any such withholding and shall cooperate with Sellers in good faith to reduce or mitigate such withholding. To the extent that amounts are so withheld, such withheld amounts shall be treated
for all purposes of this Agreement as having been delivered and paid to the Sellers or any such other recipient of payments in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

 48

 49 












 
Date, for purposes of eligibility and vesting (but not for purposes of benefit accruals or benefit amounts under any defined benefit pension plan, equity or equity-based incentive plans, retiree
welfare plans, or to the extent that such recognition would result in duplication of benefits). From and after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall, or shall cause the Acquired Companies to undertake reasonable commercial efforts to (i) cause any pre-existing condition or other limitations and eligibility waiting periods under any group health, dental, life or vision plans of Purchaser or its Affiliates to be waived with respect to Company Employees and

Date), and (ii) use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide each Company Employee credit for the plan year in which the Closing Date occurs towards applicable deductibles and annual out-of-pocket limits for expenses incurred prior to the Closing Date. 
 (c) Purchaser and
its Affiliates shall be solely responsible for any and all liabilities, claims and obligations of any kind arising out of the employment (or termination of employment, whether actual or constructive) of employees arising on and after the Closing
Date. For purposes of this provision, the “WARN Act” means Worker Adjustment Retraining and Notification Act, 29 U.S.C. § 2101 et seq., and the regulations promulgated thereunder, as well as any state or local Applicable Law of
similar effect. 
 (d) Nothing in this Section 7.08, whether express or implied, shall: (i) confer upon
any Company Employee or other Person any rights or remedies, including any right to employment or continued employment for any period or any terms or conditions of employment, or any third-party beneficiary rights hereunder; (ii) be interpreted

compensation plan, program, policy, agreement or arrangement.

Date, the Acquired Companies will, and Purchaser shall cause the Acquired Companies, as applicable, to, (a) indemnify and hold harmless, against any costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages,
or liabilities incurred in connection with any Proceeding, and provide advancement of expenses to, all past and present members, directors, officers, employees, and agents of the Acquired Companies (in all of their capacities), to the same extent

this Agreement with any managers, officers, and employees of the Acquired Companies, as applicable, and to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, in each case, for acts or omissions at or prior to the Closing Date (including acts or
omissions occurring in connection with the approval of this Agreement and the consummation of the Contemplated Transactions); and (b) to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, include and cause to be maintained in effect in the Organizational
Documents of the Acquired Companies, for a period of six years after the Closing Date, the current provisions regarding elimination of liability of directors, indemnification of officers, directors, and employees and advancement of expenses
contained in the Organizational Documents of the Acquired Companies. The obligations of Purchaser and the Acquired Companies following the Closing under this Section 7.09 shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner
as to adversely affect any director or officer to whom this Section 7.09 applies without the consent of such affected director or officer. In the event Purchaser, an Acquired Company or any of their respective successors or
assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or Entity in such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any
other Person, then, in either such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Purchaser or the applicable Acquired Company, as the case may be, shall assume the obligations of this

 50 












 7.10 Change of Control Payments. Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts
to cause the Payroll Company to complete a special payroll on the Closing Date or within three Business Days thereafter for the purposes of delivering the Change of Control Payments to the employees of the Acquired Companies, as applicable, entitled
to receive a Change of Control Payment and identified in the Pre-Closing Statement; provided, however, that Sellers acknowledge and agree that it shall be the responsibility of Sellers to cause the
Acquired Companies to make the necessary arrangements with the Payroll Company prior to the Closing such that the special payroll may be completed on the Closing Date or within three Business Days thereafter once the amount necessary to fund such
special payroll is made available to the Payroll Company in accordance with Section 3.02(a)(iv). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) Purchaser shall, and shall cause the Acquired Companies and their
respective Representatives to, provide any information or assistance reasonably requested by the Payroll Company in connection with the distribution of such Change of Control Payments; and (b) in no event shall Purchaser, its Affiliates or any
of their respective Representatives interfere with, prevent or seek to prevent, the payment of such Change of Control Payments by the Payroll Company. 

7.11 Tax Matters. 

(a) Sellers shall prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, when due (i) all Tax Returns required to be filed by the
Acquired Companies due (after taking into account all appropriate extensions) on or prior to the Closing Date, and (ii) IRS Form 1065 (and other similar form for state and local Tax purposes) and all other income Tax Returns required to be
filed by the Acquired Companies for all Tax periods ending on or before the Closing Date (collectively, the “Seller Prepared Returns”). Sellers shall timely pay all Taxes that are shown as payable with respect to any Seller Prepared
Returns. Each Seller Prepared Return shall be prepared in accordance with existing procedures and practices and accounting methods of the Acquired Companies, except as otherwise required by Applicable Law. At least 30 days prior to the due date
(including extensions validly obtained) of any Seller Prepared Return filed after the Closing Date, the Seller Representative shall provide a draft of such Tax Return to Purchaser for its review and comment, and Sellers shall cause the Acquired
Companies to incorporate any reasonable and timely comments made by Purchaser in the Tax Return actually filed. To the extent that a Seller Prepared Return needs to be filed after the Closing Date by an Acquired Company, Purchaser shall cause the
Acquired Companies to file such Tax Return. No Seller Prepared Return may be amended after the Closing Date without the written consent of Purchaser, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Purchaser shall prepare and file,
or cause to be prepared and filed all Tax Returns of the Acquired Companies other than Seller Prepared Returns. With respect to any Tax Return required to be prepared and filed by Purchaser after the Closing Date and which relates to a Pre-Closing Tax Period (including a Straddle Period), Purchaser shall provide a draft of such Tax Return to the Seller Representative within a reasonable time (and, in the case of any such Tax Return that is an
income Tax Return, no later than 30 days) prior to the due date (including extensions validly obtained). Purchaser shall incorporate any timely and reasonable comments made by the Seller Representative in such Tax Return actually filed. No failure
or delay of Purchaser in providing any such Tax Return for the Seller Representative to review shall reduce or otherwise affect the obligations or liabilities of Sellers pursuant to this Agreement. 

(b) In the case of Taxes arising in any taxable period that includes, but does not end on, the Closing Date (a “Straddle
Period”), for purposes of determining whether the following Taxes are attributable to a Pre-Closing Tax Period, the Parties agree as follows: (i) in the case of property, ad valorem or similar
Taxes imposed on a periodic basis, the amount of such Taxes that are attributable to the portion of such Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date shall equal the amount of such Tax for the entire 

  
 51 












 
Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the Straddle Period ending on and including the Closing Date, and the denominator of which is the total
number of days in the Straddle Period; (ii) in the case of Taxes in the form of interest or penalties, all such Taxes shall be treated as attributable to a Pre-Closing Tax Period to the extent relating to
a Tax for a Pre-Closing Tax Period; and (iii) in the case of all other Taxes, including Taxes based upon the income, sales, margins or receipts and any other similar Taxes, the amount of such Taxes that
are attributable to the portion of such Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date shall be determined on the basis of an interim closing of the books as of the close of business on the Closing Date (determined, with respect to any franchise Tax,
based on the taxable period (or portion thereof) during which the income, operations, assets or capital comprising the base of such Tax is measured, regardless of whether the right to do business for another period (or portion thereof) is obtained
by the payment of such franchise Tax. For the avoidance of doubt, any payroll or other employment Taxes of the Acquired Companies for any Pre-Closing Tax Period that were deferred prior to the Closing Date
pursuant to Section 2302 of the CARES Act shall be treated as attributable to a Pre-Closing Tax Period. 

(c) Other than any credit or other commercial agreement entered into in the ordinary course of business, the principal purposes of which
is not the allocation of Taxes, all Tax Sharing Agreements to which any Acquired Company is a party shall be terminated as of the Closing Date and, from and after the Closing Date, neither Sellers nor any Acquired Company shall be obligated to make
any payment to any Person pursuant to any such agreement or arrangement, and all other rights and obligations resulting from any such agreement or arrangement shall cease. 

(d) If an Acquired Company is permitted but not required under applicable state or local income Tax laws to treat the Closing Date as
the last day of a taxable period, then the Parties shall treat that day as the last day of a taxable period. 
 (e) Tax deductions of
the Acquired Companies (including those attributable to depreciation, amortization, capitalized fees, interest and original issue discount) (the “Transaction Tax Deductions”), which arise out of or relate to the following shall be
allocated to Pre-Closing Tax Periods to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law and shall be reflected on IRS Forms 1065 (and any similar state or local tax forms) of the Acquired Companies for the
taxable period ending on the Closing Date: (i) payment or accrual of any Seller Transaction Expenses and Change of Control Payments, including, without limitation, the employer’s share of any payroll taxes resulting from the Change of
Control Payments, (ii) capital expenditures made by the Acquired Companies on or before the Closing Date, and (iii) payment of any Indebtedness (including deductions attributable to capitalized fees, interest and original issue discount)
on or prior to the Closing Date. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, with respect to any property placed in service by the Acquired Companies on or before the Closing Date, unless otherwise elected in writing by the
Seller Representative, Sellers and the Acquired Companies shall be permitted to cause the maximum amount of income Tax depreciation, depletion or immediate expensing for such property, to be claimed or otherwise allocated to the Pre-Closing Tax Period for U.S. income Tax purposes. Unless otherwise requested by the Seller Representative, the Parties shall cause the Acquired Companies to make the election permitted in Revenue Procedure 2011-29, to treat 70% of any success-based fees that were paid or accrued by or on behalf of the Acquired Companies prior to Closing as an amount that did not facilitate the Contemplated Transactions and therefore
as deductible in a Pre-Closing Tax Period for federal income Tax purposes. 
 (f) After the
Closing, Sellers, the Seller Representative and Purchaser shall cooperate and shall cause their respective Affiliates to cooperate with the Acquired Companies, and with each other, in connection with the preparation of any Tax Return, any refund or
rebate claim or any Tax audits, Tax disputes or administrative, judicial or other proceedings related to any Taxes (each, a “Tax Controversy”) with respect to the activities or filings of the Acquired Companies. Such cooperation
shall include the 

  
 52 












 
retention and (upon the other Party’s reasonable request) the provision of records and information, including work papers of the Acquired Companies and their auditors, but excluding records
and information that are protected by recognized professional privilege, related to Pre-Closing Tax Periods of the Acquired Companies, which are reasonably relevant to any Tax Returns, claims for refund or
rebate, or any Tax Controversy. 
 (g) If, after the Closing Date, Purchaser or any Acquired Company receives from any Governmental
Entity (i) a written notice of its intent to audit or conduct another Proceeding with respect to Taxes of the Acquired Companies for any Pre-Closing Tax Period, or (ii) a written notice of deficiency
for Taxes of any Acquired Company for any Pre-Closing Tax Period, Purchaser shall supply a copy of such document to Sellers within 30 calendar days of receipt. No failure or delay of Purchaser in the
performance of the foregoing shall reduce or otherwise affect the obligations or liabilities of Sellers pursuant to this Agreement. Any information provided or obtained under this paragraph shall be kept confidential, except as may otherwise be
necessary in connection with the filing of a Tax Return, refund or rebate claims, or any Tax Controversy, or as required by Applicable Law. 

(h) After the Closing Date, the applicable Acquired Company shall control any Tax Controversies; provided, however, that (i) the
Seller Representative shall have the right to participate in any Tax Controversies that relate in whole or in part to Taxes of the Acquired Companies for any Pre-Closing Tax Period, and (ii) Purchaser
shall not consent to the settlement or other disposition of any such Tax Controversy without the prior written consent of the Seller Representative, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Seller Representative shall control any Tax Controversy relating to IRS Form 1065 (and any comparable state and local Tax Returns) of the Acquired Companies for any Tax period ending on or prior to the Closing Date, provided (A) the Seller
Representative shall keep Purchaser reasonably informed regarding the status of such Tax Controversy; (B) the Seller Representative shall control the Tax Controversy diligently and in good faith; (C) Purchaser shall have the right to
participate in such Tax Controversy; (D) the Seller Representative shall not settle, resolve, or abandon the Tax Controversy (or any portion thereof) without the prior written consent of Purchaser, which shall not be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned or delayed; (E) Sellers shall bear all costs and expenses of the Seller Representative and the Acquired Companies in controlling such Tax Controversy. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent applicable, each Acquired Company
shall, in the sole discretion of Purchaser, make a “push-out” election under Section 6226 of the Code (or similar election for state or local income Tax purposes) with respect to any imputed
underpayment for any Pre-Closing Tax Period. 
 (i) Subject to this
Section 7.11(i), all refunds of Taxes of the Acquired Companies (other than transfer Taxes for which Purchaser is responsible under this Agreement) for any Pre-Closing Tax Period
(determined, with respect to a Straddle Period, in accordance with the principles provided for in this Section 7.11(i)) (whether in the form of cash received or a direct credit or offset against Taxes otherwise payable) and
all rebates of Taxes paid in any Pre-Closing Tax Period (including without limitation any rebates of Louisiana sales and use Taxes pursuant to the Louisiana Quality Jobs Program and/or the Louisiana Enterprise
Zone Tax Credit program) shall be for the benefit of Sellers. To the extent that Purchaser or any Acquired Company receives a refund that is for the benefit of Sellers, Purchaser shall pay to the Seller Representative for distribution to Sellers the
amount of such refund (without interest other than interest received from the Governmental Entity), net of (i) any Taxes; and (ii) any out-of-pocket expenses
that Purchaser, any Acquired Company or any of their Affiliates incur (or has or will incur) with respect to such refund (and related interest). The net amount due to Sellers shall be payable 10 days after receipt of the refund or rebate from the
applicable Taxing Authority (or, if the refund or rebate is in the form of credit or offset, 10 days after the due date of the Tax Return claiming such credit or offset). At the request of the Seller Representative, Purchaser shall cooperate with
the Seller Representative in the filing of any claim for a refund or rebate of Taxes to which Sellers are entitled pursuant to this Section 7.11(i). 

  
 53 












 Nothing in this Section 7.11(i) shall require that Purchaser make any payment with
respect to any refund for a Tax (and such refunds shall be for the benefit of Purchaser and the Acquired Companies) that is with respect to (A) any refund of Tax that is the result of the carrying back of any net operating loss or other Tax
attribute or Tax credit incurred in a Tax period (or portion thereof) beginning after the Closing Date; (B) any refund of an Indemnified Tax paid after the Closing Date to the extent Sellers have not indemnified the Purchaser, any Acquired
Company, or the applicable Subsidiary for such Taxes; (C) any refund for Tax that is reflected as a Current Asset (or offset to a Current Liability) in the Final Working Capital Amount; or (D) any refund for Tax that gives rise to a
payment obligation by an Acquired Company to any Person under Applicable Law or pursuant to a provision of a contract or other agreement entered (or assumed) by an Acquired Company on or prior to the Closing Date. 

(j) Except as otherwise required by Applicable Law or this Agreement, Purchaser shall not, in each case without the prior written
consent of the Seller Representative (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), (i) amend or permit the amendment of any Tax Return of the Acquired Companies for a Tax period ending on or prior to the Closing Date if such
amendment could reasonably be expected to result in any increased Tax liability to Sellers or their direct or indirect owners, (ii) waive or permit to be waived any limitations period with respect to such Tax Returns, (iii) make or permit
to be made any Tax election with respect to the Acquired Companies that has retroactive effect to any Tax period ending on or prior to the Closing Date, (iv) initiate any voluntary disclosure or discussion with any taxing authority with respect
to any Tax period ending on or prior to the Closing Date, or (v) cause any Acquired Company to take any action outside of the ordinary course of business on the Closing Date, after the Closing. 

(k) The Parties and each of their Affiliates agree to file all Tax Returns and not take any position for Tax purposes in a Proceeding or
otherwise that is inconsistent with, the Tax treatment of the items specified below, except as otherwise required to reflect any determination within the meaning of Section 1313 of the Code: 

(i) For U.S. federal and applicable state income tax purposes, the purchase of and sale of the Acquired Interests is intended
to be treated and shall be reported by the Parties in accordance with Situation 2 of Revenue Ruling 99-6, which (A) with respect to Purchaser, shall be treated as a termination of each Acquired Company
and a deemed distribution of assets of each Acquired Company to Sellers, followed by the sale of such assets to Purchaser, and (B) with respect to Sellers, shall be treated as a sale of partnership interests in each of the Acquired Companies to
Purchaser. 
 (ii) Within 60 days after the date the Final Working Capital Amount is determined pursuant to this Agreement,
Purchaser will provide the Seller Representative, for its review and approval, schedule allocating the Adjusted Base Purchase Price, and any applicable liabilities of the Acquired Companies treated as consideration for Tax purposes, among the assets
of the Acquired Companies (and, in the case of Sellers, among the Acquired Interests) (the “Proposed Allocation Statement”). The Proposed Allocation Statement shall be prepared in accordance with Section 1060 and other
applicable provisions of the Code and in accordance with the principles set forth on Schedule 7.11(k) (the “Allocation Principles”). If the Seller Representative approves the Proposed Allocation Statement or, if within 30
days or receiving the Proposed Allocation Statement, the Seller Representative has not objected, the Proposed Allocation Statement shall be final and binding (the “Final Allocation Statement”). In the event the Seller Representative
communicates objections to a Proposed Allocation Statement within 30 days after delivery thereof to the Seller Representative, the Seller Representative and Purchaser will proceed promptly and in good faith to resolve their differences and prepare
Final Allocation Statement that is acceptable to both the Seller Representative and Purchaser and that is consistent with this 

  
 54 












 
Agreement, including the Allocation Principles. If Purchaser and the Seller Representative are unable to agree upon a Final Allocation Statement within 30 days, the Parties shall retain the
Accounting Referee to resolve their dispute, provided that the Accounting Referee shall be instructed to utilize the Allocation Principles for all purposes in connection with resolving the dispute. The determination of the Accounting Referee shall
be the Final Allocation Statement and shall be final and binding on the Parties, but only to the extent it is consistent with the Allocation Principles. In all events, the Parties shall report, act and file Tax Returns (including IRS Form 8594 with
Purchaser’s federal income Tax Returns for the taxable year that includes the Closing Date) in a manner consistent with the Allocation Principles. The cost of the Accounting Referee shall be shared equally by Sellers, on the one hand, and
Purchaser on the other hand. The Parties shall make appropriate adjustments to the Final Allocation Statement to reflect changes in the Adjusted Base Purchase Price, and such changes shall in all events be consistent with the Allocation Principles.
Unless otherwise required to reflect any determination within the meaning of Section 1313 of the Code, (A) the Parties shall report, act and file Tax Returns in all respects and for all purposes consistent with the Final Allocation
Statement, and (B) neither Purchaser nor Sellers shall take any position (whether in audits, Tax Returns or otherwise) that is inconsistent with the Final Allocation Statement. Each Party shall provide the other with written notice of any audit
or other Proceeding related to the allocation of the Adjusted Base Purchase Price and other taxable consideration as reported under this Section 7.11(k). 

7.12 Expenses; Transfer Taxes. 

(a) Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all Transaction Expenses shall be paid by the Party incurring such expense;
provided, however, that (i) the fees and expenses of the Accounting Referee, if applicable, shall be paid or reimbursed in accordance with Section 2.06(c)(iii), (ii) the fees and expenses of the Escrow Agent
shall be borne fifty percent (50%) by Purchaser and fifty percent (50%) by Seller, and (iii) the filing fees required under the HSR Act or otherwise required to be paid to any Antitrust Authority in connection with the Contemplated Transaction
shall be borne by Purchaser. 
 (b) Any sales or transfer taxes, stamp duties, filing fees, registration fees, recordation expenses,
or other similar taxes, fees, charges or expenses incurred by Sellers or any other party in connection with the Contemplated Transactions shall be borne by Purchaser. 

7.13 Accounts Receivable Attributable to Purchaser. At or prior to the Closing, Purchaser shall cause any accounts receivable of the
Acquired Companies attributable to Purchaser or its Affiliates as of the Closing (“Purchaser Attributable Accounts Receivable”) to be paid in full by wire transfer of immediately available funds. 

7.14 Cash on Hand. Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Agreement to the contrary, prior to the Closing, Sellers shall be
permitted to cause the Acquired Companies to (a) make a distribution of all cash on hand of the Acquired Companies (other than cash for checks written but not cleared) to Sellers and/or (b) use cash on hand to pay the Seller Transaction
Expenses, Change of Control Payments and Indebtedness of the Acquired Companies; provided, that Sellers shall cause the Acquired Companies to maintain a sufficient amount of cash on hand at the Closing to operate the business in the ordinary
course, which amount shall be included in the Estimated Closing Cash Amount and the Final Closing Cash Amount (subject to the applicable definitions thereof). For the avoidance of doubt, cash on hand prior to the Closing shall be inclusive of,
without duplication, cash from the payment of the Purchaser Attributable Accounts Receivable. 

  
 55 












 7.15 Facility Construction. From the date hereof until the Closing Date, Sellers
shall cause the Acquired Companies to fund construction of the Acquired Company’s facility in Caddo Parish, Louisiana (the “Sunny Point Facility”) in the ordinary course and consistent with the current construction timeline for
the Sunny Point Facility and the budget attached hereto as Schedule 7.15 (the “Sunny Point Budget”). From and after the Closing, any capital expenditures necessary for the completion of the construction of the Sunny Point
Facility will be the sole responsibility of Purchaser and its Affiliates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the aggregate amount of any capital expenditures set forth on the Sunny Point Budget that remain uncomplete to the reasonable satisfaction of
Purchaser (or are otherwise not expended) as of the Closing Date (the “Unsatisfied Sunny Point Construction Costs”) shall be deemed Indebtedness. 

7.16 Title Policy. 

(a) Sellers shall use reasonable best efforts to assist and cooperate with Purchaser with respect to Purchaser’s efforts to secure
from the title companies selected by Purchaser (each a “Title Company”) a commitment for the issuance of a 2016 form ALTA owner’s policy of title insurance, insuring (i) Red River’s title to the Owned Real Property
and (ii) Performance Proppants’, Sunny Point’s and Performance International’s title with to their respective Leased Real Property (collectively, the “Title Commitment”). Purchaser shall have the right to obtain,
at Purchaser’s sole expense, an ALTA survey of the Owned Real Property and applicable Lease Real Property, but obtaining such survey(s) shall neither cause a delay nor be a condition to the Closing hereunder. 

(b) Purchaser may, in its discretion, obtain one or more title insurance policies contemplated by the Title Commitment (collectively,
the “Title Policy”) and, if Purchaser obtains any such Title Policy, Purchaser shall bear the responsibility for any premiums or endorsements thereto and the cost of any ALTA surveys. All other costs and expenses (if any) with
respect to the Owned Real Property shall be allocated between Purchaser and Sellers in accordance with the customary practice of the county in which any the Owned Real Property is located. Sellers shall reasonably cooperate with Purchaser to deliver
any reasonable and customary seller’s affidavits required by any Title Company to issue the Title Policy at no additional cost or expense to Sellers. 

7.17 Notification. During the period between the date of this Agreement and the Closing, the Seller Representative shall promptly (and

comply with or satisfy in any material respect any covenant to be complied with by it hereunder; (b) any written notice or other written communication from any Person alleging that the consent of such Person is or may be required in connection
with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and (c) any written notice or other written communication from any Governmental Entity in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

respective designees) of UCC-3 termination statements and other required termination statements or notices (including, without limitation, as applicable intellectual property security interest termination,
deposit account control agreement terminations and collateral access agreement terminations) and (c) the delivery immediately upon consummation of the Closing of any possessory collateral held by lender or other Person to whom such Indebtedness
is owed to Purchaser (or its designee) to effect the release and termination of such Liens (collectively, the “Lien Releases”). 

7.20 Termination of Affiliate Contracts. In connection with the Closing, Sellers and the Acquired Companies shall take
such actions as may be necessary to terminate the Contracts set forth in Section 5.22 of the Disclosure Schedule with no further Liability or obligations of the Acquired Companies or their Affiliates from and after the
Closing (or any Liability or obligation of Purchaser or its Affiliates). 
 7.21 Intracompany Payables. All
intracompany (payables and receivables) accounts between Sellers, their Affiliates or any of their Subsidiaries, but excluding the Acquired Companies, on the one hand, and the Acquired Companies on the other hand, that remain in existence

Damages that any Seller Party actually incurs or suffers as a direct result of, relating to or arising from: (a) any breach or inaccuracy by Purchaser of any representation or warranty contained in Article VI; or (b) any breach by
Purchaser of any covenant or other agreement contained in this Agreement. 
  

	 	10.03	 Expiration of Representations and Warranties and Covenants.

remedy in respect of the items taken into account in connection with the determination of the Estimated Working Capital Amount and the Final Working Capital Amount, and Purchaser shall not be entitled to any additional recourse in respect thereof
(with the intent of this provision to merely be to avoid “double counting” and not to limit any right to recover for Damages arising out of or resulting from any breach in excess of the amount of such Damages that was actually taken into
account in such calculation). 
 (e) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement (i) nothing in this Agreement will limit any
rights or remedies in respect of Fraud and (ii) nothing shall limit in any way any claim or recovery available to Purchaser or any of its Affiliates or Representatives, as applicable, under any R&W Insurance Policy. 

10.05 Indemnification Claims. 

(a) If a Purchaser Party or Seller Party (the “Indemnified Party”) wishes to assert an indemnification claim in
accordance with this Article X, then, as the case may be (x) Purchaser (on behalf of itself or another Purchaser Party who is an Indemnified Party) shall deliver to Seller Representative, or (y) Seller Representative (on behalf of
an Indemnified Party who is a Seller Party) shall deliver to Purchaser, in each case, a written notice (a “Claim Notice”) setting forth, to the extent known by the Indemnified Party at such time: 

  
 63 












 (i) the specific representation, warranty, or covenant alleged to have been
breached by such other Party or other indemnifiable matter described in Section 10.01 or Section 10.02, as applicable; 

(ii) a reasonably detailed description of the facts and circumstances giving rise to the alleged breach of such representation,
warranty or covenant or other indemnifiable matter described in Section 10.01 or Section 10.02, as applicable; and 

(iii) an estimate of the total amount of the Damages (to the extent known and calculable) as a direct result of, relating to or
arising from such alleged breach or other indemnifiable matter described in Section 10.01 or Section 10.02, as applicable. 

(b) Following the delivery of a Claim Notice, the Parties agrees to (other than with respect to any Third Party Claim) engage in good
faith negotiations for a period of up to 30 days to settle the claim that is the subject matter of the Claim Notice; provided, that nothing in this Section 10.05 shall require any Purchaser Party to accept any settlement offer of Sellers
nor limit or otherwise reduce the amount of Damages to which any Purchaser Party may be owed in connection with such claim that is the subject matter of the Claim Notice. 

10.06 Damages. In determining whether a breach of any representation, warranty, agreement or covenant has occurred and in determining
the amount of any Damages suffered by an Indemnified Party related to such breach, all qualifications or exceptions in such representation, warranty, agreement or covenant relating to or referring to “materiality” or “Material Adverse
Effect” or any similar term or phrase shall be disregarded; provided, however, that (a) the materiality qualification in Section 5.05 after the phrase “present fairly” shall not be disregarded and
will have effect, (b) the defined term “Material Adverse Effect” in Section 5.07 shall not be disregarded and will have effect and (c) the word “Material” will not be disregarded when used in
the defined terms “Material Contract,” “Material Customer,” “Material Supplier.” 
 10.07 Defense of
Third Party Claims. 
 (a) If any Indemnified Party receives notice or otherwise obtains knowledge of any Proceeding commenced or
threatened by a third party (each, a “Third Party Claim”) against the Indemnified Party that may give rise to an indemnification claim against another Party (the “Indemnifying Party”), then the Indemnified Party
shall promptly deliver to the Indemnifying Party (or, if any Seller is an Indemnifying Party to the Seller Representative) a written notice (the “Third Party Claim Notice”) describing the Third Party Claim in reasonable detail;
provided, however, that for the sole purpose of determining whether a commenced or threatened Third Party Claim may give rise to an indemnification claim by Purchaser within the meaning of this sentence, the limitations set forth in
Section 10.04 shall not be taken into account; provided, further, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in notifying any Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability
hereunder, unless (and then solely to the extent) such Indemnifying Party is prejudiced or damaged in any manner by such delay. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, at its option, to assume the defense of any such Third Party Claim with
counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim, notwithstanding the giving of such written acknowledgment as
described below, if (i) the Third Party Claim seeks only an injunction or other equitable relief; (ii) the Indemnified Party shall have been advised by counsel that there are one or more legal or equitable defenses available to it which
are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Party, and, in the reasonable opinion of the Indemnified Party, counsel for the Indemnifying Party could not adequately represent the interests of the Indemnified Party because
such interests could be in conflict with those of the Indemnifying Party; (iii) such action or Proceeding involves, or could have a material effect on, any material matter beyond the scope of the indemnification obligation of the


  
 64 












 
Indemnifying Party; (iv) in the reasonable opinion of the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party does not have the financial wherewithal to pay for such defense; or (v) the
Indemnifying Party shall not have assumed the defense of such Third Party Claim in a timely fashion. If the Indemnifying Party elects in writing within 20 days of receipt of the Third Party Claim Notice to assume the defense of any such Third Party
Claim (under circumstances in which the proviso in the preceding sentence is not applicable), then: 
 (i) the Indemnifying
Party shall consult with the Indemnified Party and the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense; 
 (ii)
notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall not be required to pay or otherwise indemnify the Indemnified Party against any attorneys’ fees or other expenses incurred on behalf of the
Indemnified Party in connection with such Third Party Claim following the Indemnifying Party’s election to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim; 

(iii) the Indemnified Party shall make available to the Indemnifying Party all
non-privileged books, records, and other documents and materials that are under the direct or indirect control of the Indemnified Party or any of the Indemnified Party’s Representatives and that the
Indemnifying Party considers reasonably necessary or desirable for the defense of such Third Party Claim; 
 (iv) the
Indemnified Party shall otherwise cooperate as reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party in the defense of such Third Party Claim; 

(v) the Indemnified Party shall not admit any liability with respect to such Third Party Claim; and 

(vi) the Indemnifying Party shall have the exclusive right to negotiate the settlement of any such Third Party Claim,
provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not settle, adjust, or compromise such Third Party Claim, or admit any liability with respect to such Third Party Claim, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). 
 (b) If the Indemnifying Party elects not to assume the defense
of such Third Party Claim, then the Indemnified Party may proceed with defending such Third Party Claim with the assistance of counsel of its choice; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party shall not settle, adjust, or compromise such
Third Party Claim, or admit any liability with respect to such Third Party Claim, without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). 

(c) To the extent that there is an inconsistency between this Section 10.07 and Section 7.11 as it
relates to a Tax matter, the provisions of Section 7.11 shall govern. 
 10.08 Administration of Escrow
Account; Release of Escrow Account. 
 (a) Upon the delivery of a Claim Notice from Purchaser in accordance with
Section 10.05, the administration of such claim shall, subject to the limitations set forth in this Article X, be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement. 

  
 65 












 (b) Subject to the provisions of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, the Escrow
Account shall be released by the Escrow Agent to Sellers (in accordance with each such Seller’s Pro Rata Proportionate Share) by wire transfer of immediately available funds on or before fifth Business Day following the 12 month anniversary of
the Closing Date (the “Escrow Anniversary Date”); provided, however, if a Claim Notice has been duly delivered by a Purchaser Party to Seller Representative in accordance with Section 10.05,
on or prior to the Escrow Anniversary Date, then funds sufficient (up to the amount of funds then available in the Escrow Account and/or obligated to be replenished by Sellers pursuant to Section 2.05(b)(ii)(B)) to satisfy
the Damages relating to such Claim Notice, as set forth in the Claim Notice if known or, if unknown, as reasonably determined by Purchaser, shall remain in the Escrow Account until resolution of the specific matter to which the Claim Notice relates,
whereupon, within five Business Days following the resolution of the last of any such outstanding claim for indemnification (and following the payment of any amount due to any Purchaser Party in connection with such resolution or release of
available funds in the Escrow Account Regarding the same), the Escrow Agent shall deliver to Sellers (in accordance with each such Seller’s Pro Rata Proportionate Share) by wire transfer of immediately available funds the remainder of the funds
then on deposit in the Escrow Account. 
 (c) For the avoidance of doubt, amounts deposited in the Escrow Account shall, unless
otherwise elected by Sellers in their sole and absolute discretion, be treated as installment obligations for the purposes of Section 453 of the Code, and no Party shall take any action or Tax filing position inconsistent with such income Tax
characterization, except as otherwise required by Applicable Law. 
 10.09 Mitigation. Each Indemnified Party shall, and shall cause
all other Indemnified Parties to, use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate all Damages (other than Damages with respect to Taxes) upon and after becoming aware of any event that would reasonably be expected to give rise to such Damages that
would be subject to a claim for indemnification under this Article X; provided, that nothing in this Agreement shall require Purchaser make or institute any claim available to Purchaser or any of its Affiliates or Representatives, as
applicable, under any R&W Insurance Policy, it being understood and agreed that Sellers shall be, subject to the limitations set forth in this Article X, the primary source of indemnification for any Purchaser Party pursuant to this
Agreement as between Sellers and any such representation and warranty insurance provider. 
 10.10 Exclusive Remedy. Except
(a) in the case of Fraud of any Seller or Fraud of Purchaser; and (b) the rights and remedies set forth in Section 2.06, Section 9.03, Section 12.12 and
Section 12.13, the right of each Party hereto to assert indemnification claims and receive indemnification payments pursuant to this Article X shall, from and after the Closing Date, be the sole and exclusive right
and remedy exercisable by such Party with respect to any breach by any other Party hereto of any covenant, representation, warranty, or otherwise under or relating to this Agreement. 

10.11 Characterization of Indemnification Payment. Any payment made pursuant to or in connection with this Article X shall be
deemed to be an adjustment to the Final Net Purchase Price to the extent permitted by Applicable Law. 
 10.12 R&W Insurance
Policy. If Purchaser obtains a buyer-side representation and warranty insurance policy in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (a “R&W Insurance Policy”), Purchaser shall provide Seller
Representative with a true and complete copy of such R&W Insurance Policy in connection with the binding thereof, and such R&W Insurance Policy shall include a provision that provides that the insurers under such policy will not have the
right to pursue any subrogation or contribution rights against any Seller or any of its Affiliates under this Agreement except for subrogation rights for Fraud by such Person in connection with this Agreement and shall name Sellers as intended third
party beneficiaries of such provision. The Parties acknowledge and agree that Purchaser’s obtaining or not obtaining the R&W Insurance Policy shall have no effect on the provisions set forth in this Article X or otherwise on
Purchaser’s obligations to consummate the Closing on the terms and conditions set forth herein. Purchaser agrees to not seek to make, enter into or consent to, any amendment to the R&W Insurance Policy following the Closing that would
adversely affect the rights of any Seller under this Section 10.12 without Seller Representative’s prior written consent. For the avoidance of doubt, the cost of the R&W Insurance Policy and any fees, costs,
retentions or deductibles associated therewith shall be borne solely by Purchaser.

Seller Representative 

11.01 Designation. Sellers hereby designate Performance Holdings II to serve as the Seller Representative of all Sellers as provided
herein. By signing this Agreement in the capacity of Seller Representative, Performance Holdings II hereby accepts the appointment as the Seller Representative for purposes of this Agreement. 

11.02 Authority. 
 (a)
Each Seller, by the execution of this Agreement, hereby irrevocably appoints the Seller Representative as the representative, proxy and attorney-in-fact (with full
power of substitution) for such Seller for the limited purposes of carrying out the express duties of the Seller Representative under this Agreement. Within the scope of that limited purpose, each Seller grants the Seller Representative the full and
exclusive power and authority to represent and bind such Seller with respect to all matters related to, arising under or pursuant to the express duties of the Seller Representative under this Agreement (including the taking by the Seller
Representative of any and all actions and the making of any decisions required or permitted to be taken on such Seller’s behalf), including: (a) to bring, defend and/or resolve any claim made or threatened pursuant to
Section 2.06 and Section 7.11; (b) to negotiate, settle, adjust or compromise any such claims, bring suit or seek arbitration with respect to any such claims, and comply with orders of courts and
awards of arbitrators with respect to any such claims; (c) to act on behalf of such Seller in any dispute, claim, litigation or arbitration that in the judgment of the Seller Representative may result in a claim pursuant to
Section 2.06 and Section 7.11; (d) to act on behalf of such Seller in connection with the matters contemplated by Sections 2.05 and 2.06; (e) to use reasonable efforts to enforce and

Agreement. A decision, act, consent or instruction of the Seller Representative as to any of the foregoing matters shall constitute a decision of all Sellers and shall be final, binding and conclusive on each Seller. Purchaser may rely, without
independent investigation, upon such decision, act, consent or instruction of the Seller Representative as being the decision, act, consent or instruction of every Seller. EACH SELLER AGREES THAT SUCH AGENCY AND PROXY ARE COUPLED WITH AN INTEREST,
ARE THEREFORE IRREVOCABLE WITHOUT THE CONSENT OF THE SELLER REPRESENTATIVE AND SHALL SURVIVE THE DEATH, INCAPACITY, BANKRUPTCY, DISSOLUTION OR LIQUIDATION OF ANY SELLER. 

  
 67 












 (b) In addition: 

(i) Purchaser and its Affiliates (including, following the Closing, the Acquired Companies) shall be able to rely conclusively
on the instructions and decisions of the Seller Representative as to any actions required to be taken by the Seller Representative under this Agreement (including any action taken or purported to be taken by or on behalf of any Seller), and no
Person shall have any cause of action against Purchaser and its Affiliates (including, following the Closing, the Acquired Companies) for any action taken by Purchaser and its Affiliates (including, following the Closing, the Acquired Companies) in
reliance upon the instructions or decisions of the Seller Representative; and 
 (ii) all actions, decisions and instructions
of the Seller Representative shall be conclusive and binding upon each Seller and no Seller shall have any cause of action against the Seller Representative for any action taken, decision made or instruction given by the Seller Representative under
this Agreement, except for fraud or willful breach of this Agreement by the Seller Representative. 
 11.03 Exculpation. Neither the
Seller Representative nor any agent employed by it shall incur any Liability to any Seller relating to the performance of its duties under this Agreement for any error of judgment, or any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken on behalf of
Sellers (or any of them), except in the case of the Seller Representative’s gross negligence, actual fraud or willful misconduct. The Seller Representative may consult with counsel of its own choice and shall have full and complete
authorization and protection for any action taken or suffered by the Seller Representative hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the advice of such counsel. 

11.04 Sharing. Each Seller hereby irrevocably agrees, severally and not jointly, to bear such Seller’s pro rata share, based upon
such Seller’s Pro Rata Proportionate Share, of any loss, liability or expense, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, incurred without gross negligence, actual fraud or willful misconduct on the part of the Seller
Representative, in connection with the performance of its duties, or arising out of, or in connection with, any action or decision taken or made on behalf of any Seller by the Seller Representative within the scope of the Seller
Representative’s duties under this Article XI, and to be bound by all actions taken by the Seller Representative in its capacity as such within the scope of the Seller Representative’s duties under this Article XI. 

11.05 Expenses. Each Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees that any loss, Liability or expense, including reasonable attorneys’
fees and expenses, incurred by the Seller Representative, if any, shall be reimbursed out of the Seller Representative Expense Account and, if the Seller Representative Expense Account is exhausted, by Sellers in accordance with their respective Pro
Rata Proportionate Share; provided, however, that the Seller Representative shall be entitled to withhold from any amounts released in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement from the Escrow Account to Sellers any amounts that are
not so reimbursed by Sellers. 
 11.06 Certain Limitations. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Seller
Representative shall not agree to any amendment, modification or waiver of the provisions of this Agreement that (a) alters or changes from the provisions set forth in this Agreement the amount or kind of consideration to be received by
Sellers, without the prior written consent of each Seller; or (b) adversely and disproportionately (in relation to the other Sellers) affects the rights or obligations of any Seller under this Agreement, without the prior consent of such
affected Seller. 
 11.07 Successor Representative. Upon the disqualification or (upon not less than ten days’ prior written
notice to Purchaser) resignation of the Seller Representative, a successor Seller Representative shall be promptly appointed (and in no event later than 15 days) by Sellers who, together, were entitled to a majority of the Estimated Net Purchase
Price at Closing who shall succeed the Seller Representative as the “Seller Representative” hereunder. 

  
 68 












 11.08 Seller Representative Expense Amount. Upon the Closing, Purchaser shall wire to
the Seller Representative the Seller Representative Expense Amount in accordance with Section 3.02(a)(v), which shall be held by the Seller Representative in a segregated client account (the “Seller Representative
Expense Account”) and shall be used for the purposes of paying directly or reimbursing the Seller Representative for any third party expenses pursuant to this Agreement and, if applicable, for paying (on behalf of Sellers) all or any
portion of the Post-Closing Adjustment Decrease Amount in accordance with Section 2.05(b)(ii). Sellers acknowledge and agree that, if, at any time, the amount on deposit in the Seller Representative Expense Account is
insufficient to permit the Seller Representative to pay or reimburse any third party expenses incurred by the Seller Representative in the execution of its duties under this Agreement or to satisfy the Post-Closing Adjustment Decrease Amount, then,
upon written request from the Seller Representative, each Seller shall promptly remit to the Seller Representative its Pro Rata Proportionate Share of any such shortfall. Sellers acknowledge that the Seller Representative is not providing any
investment supervision, recommendations or advice. The Seller Representative shall have no responsibility or Liability for any loss of principal of the Seller Representative Expense Account other than as a result of its gross negligence, actual
fraud or willful misconduct. As soon as practicable following the determination of the Final Working Capital Amount in accordance with Section 2.06 and payment of the Post-Closing Adjustment Decrease Amount, if applicable,
the Seller Representative shall disburse the balance of the Seller Representative Expense Account to Sellers in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Proportionate Share. For Tax purposes, the Seller Representative Expense Amount will be treated
as having been received and voluntarily set aside by Sellers at the time of the Closing. 
 11.09 Limits on Liability of Seller
Representative. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, no Person serving as Seller Representative shall have any Liability in such capacity to Purchaser whatsoever (including, any direct Liability, vicarious Liability, or
Liability that Purchaser could in any way assert through other parties hereunder or through third parties), as a result of or for any act or omission made in good faith in connection with functioning as the Seller Representative, including any
Liability arising out of performance under this Agreement or any Collateral Agreement.

or covenant and any other representation or warranty if the disclosure is reasonably apparent to such other representation or warranty from the face of the applicable disclosure. The Disclosure Schedule is qualified in its entirety by reference to
specific provisions of the Agreement, and is not intended to constitute, and shall not be construed as constituting, any representation or warranty or covenant of Sellers, except as and to the extent expressly provided in this Agreement. Inclusion
of information in the Disclosure Schedule shall not be construed as an admission of Liability with respect to a third party or that such information is material to Sellers, the Acquired Companies or their respective assets, liabilities, financial
condition, results, business and/or operations. Such information shall not constitute an admission of Liability or obligation to any third party. References to any document in the Disclosure Schedule do not purport to be complete and are qualified
in their entirety by the document itself. Capitalized terms used but not defined in the Disclosure Schedule shall have the same meanings given them in this Agreement. 

12.02 Exclusivity of Agreement. The Parties each hereby acknowledge that this Agreement embodies the justifiable expectations of
sophisticated parties derived from arm’s-length negotiations; all Parties to this Agreement specifically acknowledge that no Party has any special relationship with another Party that would justify any
expectation beyond that of an ordinary acquiror and an ordinary target in an arm’s-length transaction.     

  
 69 












 12.03 No Third Party Liability. This Agreement may only be enforced against the named
Parties hereto. All claims or causes of action (whether in contract or tort) that may be based upon, arise out of or related to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement (including any representation or warranty

any Party hereto (including any Person negotiating or executing this Agreement on behalf of a Party) shall have any Liability or obligation with respect to this Agreement or with respect to any claim or cause of action (whether in contract or tort)

herein expressed or implied shall give or be construed to give to any Person (other than the Parties and such successors and assigns) any legal or equitable rights hereunder, other than the Persons intended to benefit from the provisions of
Section 7.09 (Indemnification), Section 12.03 (No Third Party Liability) and Section 12.15 (Conflicts; Waiver; Provision Respecting Legal Representation), each of whom

of each of Purchaser and, subject to Section 11.06, the Seller Representative. 
 12.10 Severability. The
provisions of this Agreement will be deemed severable and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision will not affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof. If any provision of this Agreement, or the application
thereof to any Person or any circumstance, is invalid or unenforceable, (a) a suitable and equitable provision will be substituted therefor in order to carry out, so far as may be valid and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid or
unenforceable provision; and (b) the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances will not be affected by such invalidity or unenforceability, nor will such invalidity or unenforceability

subject matter of this Agreement may not be enforced in or by such court. 
 (c) EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT
PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY PROCEEDING IN ANY COURT WITH RESPECT TO, IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, OR THE VALIDITY, PROTECTION, INTERPRETATION, COLLECTION OR ENFORCEMENT

waiver of such power, right, privilege or remedy; and no single or partial exercise of any such power, right, privilege or remedy shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right, privilege or
remedy.

right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, unless the waiver of such claim, power, right, privilege or remedy is expressly set forth in a written instrument duly executed and delivered on behalf of such Person; and any such waiver shall not be
applicable or have any effect except in the specific instance in which it is given.

Legal Representation. 
 (a) Each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees, on its own behalf and on behalf of its Representatives
and Affiliates, that Sellers and the Acquired Companies are the clients of Brownstein Hyatt Farber Schreck, LLP (“Brownstein”). After the Closing, it is possible that Brownstein will represent Sellers and their Affiliates
(individually and collectively, the “Represented Group”) in connection with any claims made pursuant to, or a dispute arising under, this Agreement (a “Dispute”). Purchaser hereby agrees (on its own behalf and on
behalf of its Representatives and Affiliates (including those acquired or formed after the date of this Agreement) (individually and collectively, the “Purchaser Group”)), that Brownstein 

  
 72 












 (or any successor) may represent the Represented Group in the future in connection with any Dispute.
Brownstein (or any successor) may serve as counsel to the Represented Group or any director, member, partner, officer, employee, Representative, or Affiliate of the Represented Group, in connection with any Dispute and Purchaser hereby consents
thereto and waives (on its own behalf and on behalf of any other member of the Purchaser Group) any conflict of interest arising therefrom (including any direct conflict) and each of such parties shall cause any Affiliate thereof to consent to waive
any conflict of interest arising from such representation. Purchaser acknowledges (on its own behalf and on behalf of the other members of the Purchaser Group) that such consent and waiver is voluntary, has been carefully considered and made after
consultation with counsel. 
 (b) Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that Brownstein has obtained confidential information of the
Acquired Companies (the “Company Confidential Information”) in connection with its representation of the Acquired Companies in the Contemplated Transactions. The Company Confidential Information includes all communications, whether
written or electronic, including any communications between Brownstein and the Acquired Companies and their respective Representatives and Affiliates, all files, attorney notes, drafts or other documents prepared by, or in consultation with
Brownstein, and primarily relating to this Agreement and the Contemplated Transactions which predate the Closing (collectively, the “Brownstein Work Product”). In the event of a Dispute, to the extent that any Company Confidential
Information is in Brownstein’s possession as of the Closing Date, such Company Confidential Information may be used on behalf of Sellers in connection with such Dispute at the sole discretion of Sellers (but subject to the limitations set forth
in the restrictive covenant agreements between Sellers and Purchaser, as applicable). In any Dispute, Purchaser waives (on its own behalf and on behalf of the other members of the Purchaser Group) the right to present any Brownstein Work Product as
evidence in any action arising out of or related to any Dispute. Purchaser acknowledges that the Represented Group and Brownstein are the sole holders of the attorney-client privilege with respect to the Brownstein Work Product and Purchaser waives
(on its own behalf and on behalf of the other members of the Purchaser Group) the right to access any Brownstein Work Product. To the extent that the Brownstein Work Product constitutes property of the client, following the Closing, only the
Represented Group shall hold such right and Brownstein shall have no duty whatsoever to reveal or disclose any such attorney-client communications or files to the Acquired Companies or any member of the Purchaser Group by reason of the
attorney-client relationship between Brownstein and the Acquired Companies, or otherwise. Purchaser hereby consents (on its own behalf and on behalf of the other members of the Purchaser Group) to the disclosure and use by Brownstein for the benefit
of Sellers of any information (confidential or otherwise) disclosed to it by the Acquired Companies (including by their respective Representatives and Affiliates) prior to the Closing Date. Purchaser further agrees (on its own behalf and on behalf
of the other members of the Purchaser Group) that, as to all communications between Brownstein, on the one hand, and the Represented Group or the Acquired Companies (or their respective Representatives and Affiliates) that relate to this Agreement
and the Contemplated Transactions, the attorney-client privilege (if applicable) and the expectation of client confidence belongs to Sellers and may be controlled by Sellers and shall not pass to or be claimed by Purchaser or the Acquired Companies.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a dispute arises between Purchaser or the Acquired Companies and a third party other than a Party to this Agreement after the Closing, the Acquired Companies may assert the attorney-client privilege
to prevent disclosure of confidential communications by Brownstein to such third party.

masculine gender shall include the feminine and neutral genders; the feminine gender shall include the masculine and neutral genders; and the neutral gender shall include the masculine and feminine genders.

Escrow Agreement 
 [See
attached.] 











 ESCROW AGREEMENT 

(Basic Merger & Acquisition Escrow) 

THIS ESCROW AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into as of [•], 2023, by and among ProFrac Holdings II, LLC, a Texas
limited liability company (“Purchaser”), Performance Holdings II, LLC, a Louisiana limited liability company (the “Seller Representative”, and together with Purchaser, sometimes referred to individually as
“Party” and collectively as the “Parties”), and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“Escrow Agent”). 

WHEREAS, Seller Representative, Purchaser, Performance Holdings I, LLC, a Louisiana limited liability company (“Performance
Holdings I”) and, in its capacity as a seller, Performance Holdings II, LLC, a Louisiana limited liability company (“Performance Holdings II”, and together with Performance Holdings I, collectively,
“Sellers”) have entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement, dated as of December 23, 2022 (the “Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which Purchaser will acquire all of the Acquired Interests (as
defined in the Purchase Agreement); 
 WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 2.03 of the Purchase Agreement, the parties to the Purchase
Agreement have agreed that a portion of the Adjusted Base Purchase Price (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) will be deposited into an escrow account with the Escrow Agent, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement
and the terms and conditions set forth herein. 
 1. Appointment. The Parties hereby appoint Escrow Agent as their escrow agent for the purposes set
forth herein, and Escrow Agent hereby accepts such appointment under the terms and conditions set forth herein. 
 2. Fund; Investment. 

(a) Pursuant to Section 2.03 and Section 3.02(a) of the Purchase Agreement, Purchaser shall deposit with Escrow Agent the sum of
$10,000,000 (the “Escrow Deposit”) at the Closing (as defined in the Purchase Agreement). Escrow Agent shall hold the Escrow Deposit in one or more demand deposit accounts and shall invest and reinvest the Escrow Deposit and the
proceeds thereof (the “Fund”) in a Money Market Deposit Account (“MMDA”) at JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., or a successor investment offered by Escrow Agent. MMDA have rates of compensation that may vary from time to
time as determined by Escrow Agent. No other investment of the Escrow Deposit will be permitted during the term of this Agreement. 
 (b)
Escrow Agent will not provide supervision, recommendations or advice relating to either the investment of moneys held in the Fund or the purchase, sale, retention or other disposition of any investment described herein, and each Party acknowledges
that it was not offered any investment, tax or accounting advice or recommendation by Escrow Agent with regard to any investment and has made an independent assessment of the suitability and appropriateness of any investment selected hereunder for
purposes of this Agreement. Escrow Agent shall not have any liability for any loss sustained as a result of any investment made pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or as a result of any liquidation of any investment prior to its maturity or for
the failure of an Authorized Representative (hereinafter defined) of the Parties to give Escrow Agent instructions to invest or reinvest the Fund. Escrow Agent shall have the right to liquidate any investments held in order to provide funds
necessary to make required payments under this Agreement. 
 (c) All interest or other income earned under this Agreement shall be allocated
to Purchaser and reported, by Escrow Agent to the IRS, or any other taxing authority, on IRS Form 1099 or 1042S (or other appropriate form) as income earned from the Escrow Deposit by Purchaser whether or not said income has been distributed during
such year. Escrow Agent shall withhold any taxes it deems appropriate in the absence of proper tax documentation or as required by law, and shall remit such taxes to the appropriate authorities. To enable Purchaser to pay U.S. federal income taxes
on any income, if any, that is derived from the Escrow Deposit, the Escrow Agent shall disburse to Purchaser, prior to, or in connection with, any other disbursements hereunder, to the account specified by Purchaser, an amount (a “Tax
Distribution”) equal to 21.0% of all such income since the date hereof or, if a Tax Distribution has previously been made to Purchaser in accordance herewith, since the last day of the period with respect to which the such previous Tax
Distribution was made. 











 3. Disposition and Termination. (a) The following terms shall have the following meanings when
used herein: 
 “Escrow Period” shall mean the period ending at 5:00 pm Central Time on the day that is twelve
(12) months from the date hereof, or the next Business Day (hereinafter defined) if such date and time is not a Business Day, unless earlier terminated pursuant to this Agreement. 

“Final Award” shall mean a final, binding determination by or order of a court directing the distribution of all or a portion
of the Fund, accompanied by a (i) written certification executed by the instructing Party or its counsel certifying that such order is final and not subject to further proceedings or appeal and (ii) written instruction from the instructing
Party’s Authorized Representative given to effectuate such order. The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon any Final Award, and accompanying certification and instruction, and shall have no responsibility to review the Final
Award or make any determination as to whether such Final Award is final. 
 “Joint Written Direction” shall mean a written
direction, substantially in the form of Exhibit A-1 hereto, executed by an Authorized Representative of each of Purchaser and the Seller Represntative and directing the Escrow Agent to disburse
all or a portion of the Fund or to take or refrain from taking any other action pursuant to this Agreement. 
 Capitalized terms used but not otherwise
defined herein shall have the respective meanings given to them in the Purchase Agreement; although the Escrow Agent shall not be responsible for determining the meaning of any capitalized term not entirely defined in this Agreement. 

Except as set forth in subsection (b) below, and as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Escrow Agent shall disburse the Fund at any time and from
time to time, upon receipt of, and in accordance with, a Joint Written Direction or Final Award. Escrow Agent shall within three (3) Business Days after its receipt of such Joint Written Direction or a Final Award release the portion of the
Fund specified in such Joint Written Direction or Final Award. In addition to the foregoing, within three (3) Business Days following the expiration of the Escrow Period, the Escrow Agent shall distribute to Sellers, to
accounts and in proportions provided by the Seller Represntative (on behalf of Sellers) in writing, the amount remaining in the Fund less (i) any Contested Amounts (as defined below) and (ii) any amounts subject to an unresolved Claim
Notice (as defined below) delivered prior to the expiration of the Escrow Period. 
 (b) If during the Escrow Period, any Purchaser Party (as
defined in the Purchase Agreement) makes a claim for indemnity from the Escrow Fund, then the procedures for administering and resolving such claims shall be as follows: 

(i) If a Purchaser Party seeks recovery from the Fund (a “Claim”), and Purchaser gives written notice of such
Claim (a “Claim Notice”), in substantially the form of Exhibit A-2 hereto, to the Escrow Agent and the Seller Representative, which Claim Notice shall include a reasonably
detailed description of the Claim and the basis therefore, an estimate of the total amount of the Damages (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) to the extent known and calculable asserted by the Purchaser Party (the “Claim Amount”)
for such Claim, and any other information required to be set forth in such Claim Notice by Section 10.05 of the Purchase Agreement. 

(ii) On or before 5:00 pm Central Time on the thirtieth (30th) day after
the date upon which a Claim Notice is received by the Escrow Agent and the Seller Represntative (the “Claim Notice Delivery Date”) (or, to the extent that Purchaser has stated in a Claim Notice that the entire amount of a Claim is
not known at the time of delivery of such Claim Notice, on or before 5:00 pm Central Time on the tenth (10th) day after Purchaser delivers a written supplement to such Claim Notice indicating the definitive amount to the Escrow Agent and the Seller
Represntative, if later) (the period beginning on the Claim Notice Delivery Date and ending at 5:00 pm Central Time on the later of such thirty (30) day period or ten (10) day period (if applicable), the “Claim Notice Response
Period”), the Seller Represntative may deliver a written objection to the Escrow Agent and Purchaser to some or all of the Claim described in the Claim Notice (a “Claim Response”), in substantially the form of Exhibit
A-3 hereto. 
  

  
 2 












 (iii) The Escrow Agent shall pay the Claim Amount to Purchaser, using
Purchaser’s Standing Instructions (hereinafter defined), within three (3) Business Days (A) following the expiration of the Claim Notice Response Period if the Escrow Agent has not received from Seller Represntative a Claim Response
before the end of the Claim Notice Response Period; or (B) of receiving a Joint Written Direction or a Final Award, as applicable. 

(iv) If the Escrow Agent receives from the Seller Represntative a Claim Response to any or all (the “Contested
Amount”) of the Claim Amount, the Escrow Agent shall release to Purchaser, using Purchaser’s Standing Instructions, all of the Claim Amount except for the Contested Amount within three (3) Business Days following the expiration of
the Claim Notice Response Period. Thereafter, the Escrow Agent shall release the Contested Amount only pursuant to (A) a Joint Written Direction or (B) a Final Award with respect to the Claim. 

(v) The Escrow Agent shall conclusively presume that any Claim Notice, Claim Response or other notice of any kind required to
be delivered to it and the other Party was simultaneously received by the Escrow Agent and the other Party, and the Escrow Agent need not inquire to verify such receipt by the other Party. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, any instructions in any way related to the transfer or distribution of the Fund must, in order to be deemed
delivered and effective, be in writing and executed by the appropriate Party or Parties as evidenced by the signatures of the person or persons signing this Agreement or one of the designated persons as set forth on the Designation of Authorized
Representatives attached hereto as Schedule 1-A and 1-B (each an “Authorized Representative”), and delivered to Escrow Agent only by facsimile (as
evidenced by a confirmed transmittal to the applicable Party’s or Parties’ transmitting fax number) or as a Portable Document Format (“PDF”) attached to an email only at the fax number or email address set forth in
Section 8 below. Escrow Agent shall not be liable to any Party or other person for refraining from acting upon any instruction for or related to the transfer or distribution of the Fund that does not satisfy the requirements herein. Escrow
Agent may rely and act upon the confirmation of anyone purporting to be an Authorized Representative in connection with any of Escrow Agent’s verifying call-backs or email confirmations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Parties
acknowledge and agree that Escrow Agent (i) shall have no obligation to take any action in connection with this Agreement on a non-Business Day and any action Escrow Agent may otherwise be required to
perform on a non-Business Day may be performed by Escrow Agent on the following Business Day and (ii) may not transfer or distribute the Fund until Escrow Agent has completed its security procedures. 

(c) Each Party authorizes Escrow Agent to use the funds transfer instructions (“Standing Instructions”) specified for it in
Schedule 3 attached hereto (as may be supplemented from time to time as described below) to disburse any funds due to such Party, without a verifying call-back or email confirmation as set forth below. 

(d) If any funds transfer instructions other than Standing Instructions are set forth in a permitted instruction from a Party or the Parties in
accordance with this Agreement, Escrow Agent may confirm such funds transfer instructions by a telephone call-back or email confirmation to an Authorized Representative of such Party or Parties and thereafter, such funds transfer instructions shall
also be considered the applicable Party’s Standing Instructions hereunder. To the extent a call-back or email confirmation is undertaken, no funds will be disbursed until such confirmation occurs. If multiple disbursements are provided for
under this Agreement pursuant to any Standing Instructions, only the date, amount and/or description of payments may change without requiring a telephone call-back or email confirmation. 

(e) The persons designated as Authorized Representatives and telephone numbers and email addresses for same may be changed only in a writing
executed by an Authorized Representative or other duly authorized person of the applicable Party setting forth such changes and actually received by Escrow Agent via facsimile or as a PDF attached to an email. Escrow Agent may confirm any such
change in Authorized Representatives by a telephone call-back or email confirmation according to its security procedures. 
 (f) Escrow Agent
and other financial institutions, including any intermediary bank and the beneficiary’s bank, may rely upon the identifying number of the beneficiary, the beneficiary’s bank or any intermediary bank included in a funds transfer
instruction, even if it identifies a person different from the beneficiary, the beneficiary’s bank or intermediary bank identified by name. 

  
 3 












 (g) As used in this Section 3, “Business Day” shall mean any day other
than a Saturday, Sunday or any other day on which Escrow Agent located at the notice address set forth below is authorized or required by law or executive order to remain closed. The Parties acknowledge that the security procedures set forth in this
Section 3 are commercially reasonable. Upon delivery of the Fund in full by Escrow Agent, this Agreement shall terminate, and all the related account(s) shall be closed, subject to the provisions of Sections 6 and 7. 

(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in the event that an electronic signature is affixed to an
instruction issued hereunder to disburse or transfer funds, such instruction may be confirmed by a verifying call-back (or email confirmation) to an Authorized Representative. 

4. Escrow Agent. Escrow Agent shall have only those duties as are specifically and expressly provided herein, which shall be deemed purely ministerial
in nature, and no other duties, including but not limited to any fiduciary duty, shall be implied. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Escrow Agent has no knowledge of, nor any obligation to comply with, the terms and conditions of any other
agreement, Escrow Agent shall not be responsible for determining the meaning of any capitalized term not entirely defined herein, nor shall Escrow Agent be required to determine if any Party has complied with any other agreement. Notwithstanding the
terms of any other agreement, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control the actions of Escrow Agent. Escrow Agent may conclusively rely upon any written notice, document, instruction or request delivered by the Parties believed by it
to be genuine and to have been signed by an Authorized Representative(s), as applicable, without inquiry and without requiring substantiating evidence of any kind and Escrow Agent shall be under no duty to inquire into or investigate the validity,
accuracy or content of any such document, notice, instruction or request. Any notice, document, instruction or request delivered by a Party but not required under this Agreement may be disregarded by Escrow Agent. ESCROW AGENT SHALL NOT BE LIABLE
FOR ANY ACTION TAKEN, SUFFERED OR OMITTED TO BE TAKEN BY IT IN GOOD FAITH EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT ESCROW AGENT’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT WAS THE CAUSE OF ANY DIRECT LOSS TO EITHER PARTY. Escrow Agent may execute any of its
powers and perform any of its duties hereunder directly or through affiliates or agents. In the event Escrow Agent shall be uncertain, or believes there is some ambiguity, as to its duties or rights hereunder or receives instructions, claims or
demands from any Party hereto which in Escrow Agent’s judgment conflict with the provisions of this Agreement, or if Escrow Agent receives conflicting instructions from the Parties, Escrow Agent shall be entitled either to: (a) refrain
from taking any action until it shall be given (i) a joint written direction executed by Authorized Representatives of the Parties which eliminates such ambiguity or conflict or (ii) a court order issued by a court of competent
jurisdiction (it being understood that Escrow Agent shall be entitled conclusively to rely and act upon any such court order and shall have no obligation to determine whether any such court order is final); or (b) file an action in
interpleader. Escrow Agent shall have no duty to solicit any payments which may be due it or the Fund, including, without limitation, the Escrow Deposit nor shall Escrow Agent have any duty or obligation to confirm or verify the accuracy or
correctness of any amounts deposited with it hereunder. The Parties grant to Escrow Agent a lien and security interest in the Fund in order to secure any indemnification obligations of the Parties or obligation for fees or expenses owed to Escrow
Agent hereunder. ANYTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT TO THE CONTRARY NOTWITHSTANDING, IN NO EVENT SHALL ESCROW AGENT BE LIABLE FOR SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL LOSS OR DAMAGE OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO
LOST PROFITS), EVEN IF ESCROW AGENT HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE LIKELIHOOD OF SUCH LOSS OR DAMAGE AND REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF ACTION. 
 5. Succession.
Escrow Agent may resign and be discharged from its duties or obligations hereunder by giving no less than thirty (30) days advance notice in writing of such resignation to the Parties or may be removed, with or without cause, by the Parties at
any time after giving not less than thirty (30) days advance joint written notice to Escrow Agent. Escrow Agent’s sole responsibility after such thirty (30) day notice period expires shall be to hold the Fund (without any obligation
to reinvest the same) and to deliver the same to a designated substitute escrow agent, if any, appointed by the Parties, or such other person designated by the Parties, or in accordance with the directions of a final court order, at which time of
delivery, Escrow Agent’s obligations hereunder shall cease and terminate. If prior to the effective resignation or removal date, the Parties have failed to appoint a successor escrow agent, or to instruct Escrow Agent to deliver the Fund to
another person as provided above, or if such delivery is contrary to applicable law, at any time on or after the effective resignation date, Escrow Agent may either (a) interplead the Fund with a 

  
 4 












 court located in the State of Texas and the costs, expenses and reasonable attorney’s fees which are
incurred in connection with such proceeding may be charged against and withdrawn from the Fund; or (b) appoint a successor escrow agent of its own choice. Any appointment of a successor escrow agent shall be binding upon the Parties and no
appointed successor escrow agent shall be deemed to be an agent of Escrow Agent. Escrow Agent shall deliver the Fund to any appointed successor escrow agent, at which time Escrow Agent’s obligations under this Agreement shall cease and
terminate. Any entity into which Escrow Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any entity to which all or substantially all the escrow business may be transferred, shall be Escrow Agent under this Agreement without
further act. 
 6. Compensation; Acknowledgment. The Parties agree jointly and severally to pay Escrow Agent upon execution of this Agreement and
from time to time thereafter reasonable compensation for the services to be rendered hereunder, which unless otherwise agreed in writing, shall be as described in Schedule 2. The Parties agree that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, to the
extent any Party deposits such compensation into an account governed by this Agreement, Escrow Agent shall have the right to withdraw such compensation from such account. Each of the Parties further agrees to the disclosures and agreements set forth
in Schedule 2. 
 7. Indemnification and Reimbursement. The Parties agree jointly and severally to indemnify, defend, hold harmless, pay or reimburse
Escrow Agent and its affiliates and their respective successors, assigns, directors, agents and employees (the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all losses, damages, claims, liabilities, taxes (other than taxes on income
earned by an Indemnitee in connection herewith), costs or expenses (including attorney’s fees) (collectively “Losses”), resulting directly or indirectly from (a) Escrow Agent’s performance of this Agreement, except to
the extent that such Losses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been caused by the gross negligence, willful misconduct, or bad faith of such Indemnitee; and (b) Escrow Agent’s following, accepting or acting upon
any instructions or directions, whether joint or singular, from the Parties received in accordance with this Agreement; provided, that as between the Parties, all amounts for which they are jointly and severally liable pursuant to the foregoing
sentenece are intended to be split equally between the two of them, and in the event that either Party in the first instance pays more than fifty percent of any such joint and several obligation, such Party shall have a right of contribution from
the other Party for such amount as will result in an equal split of such joint and several obligation. The Parties hereby grant Escrow Agent a right of set-off against the Fund for the payment of any claim for
indemnification, fees, expenses and amounts due to Escrow Agent or an Indemnitee. The obligations set forth in this Section 7 shall survive the resignation, replacement or removal of Escrow Agent or the termination of this Agreement. 

8. Notices. Except as otherwise provided in Section 3, all communications hereunder shall be in writing or set forth in a PDF attached to an
email, and shall be delivered by facsimile, email or overnight courier only to the appropriate fax number, email address, or notice address set forth for each party as follows:

 9. Compliance with Directives. In the event that a legal garnishment, attachment, levy, restraining notice, court order
or other governmental order (a “Directive”) is served with respect to any of the Fund, or the delivery thereof shall be stayed or enjoined by a Directive, Escrow Agent is hereby expressly authorized, in its sole discretion, to obey
and comply with all such Directives so entered or issued, and in the event that Escrow Agent obeys or complies with any such Directive it shall not be liable to any of the Parties hereto or to any other person by reason of such compliance
notwithstanding such Directive be subsequently reversed, modified, annulled, set aside or vacated. 
 10. Miscellaneous. (a) The
provisions of this Agreement may be waived, altered, amended or supplemented only by a writing signed by Escrow Agent and the Parties. Neither this Agreement nor any right or interest hereunder may be assigned by any Party without the prior consent
of Escrow Agent and the other Party and any assignment in violation of this Agreement shall be ineffective and void. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of Texas. Each Party and Escrow Agent irrevocably
waives any objection on the grounds of venue, forum non-conveniens or any similar grounds and irrevocably consents to service of process by mail or in any other manner permitted by applicable law and consents
to the jurisdiction of the courts located in the State of Texas. To the extent that in any jurisdiction either Party may now or hereafter be entitled to claim for itself or its assets, immunity from suit, execution, attachment (before or after
judgment) or other legal process or immunity from liability, such Party shall not claim, and hereby irrevocably waives, such immunity. Escrow Agent and the Parties further hereby knowingly, voluntarily and intentionally irrevocably waive, to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any right to a trial by jury with respect to any lawsuit or judicial proceeding arising or relating to this Agreement. 

(b) No party to this Agreement is liable to any other party for losses due to, or if it is unable to perform its obligations under the terms of this Agreement
because of, acts of God, fire, war, terrorism, floods, strikes, public health emergencies, electrical outages, equipment or transmission failure, or other causes reasonably beyond its control. This Agreement and any joint instructions from the
Parties may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument or instruction, as applicable. This Agreement may be executed and transmitted by
facsimile or as a PDF attached to an email and each such execution shall be of the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a manually executed original, wet-inked signature. All signatures of the
parties to this Agreement may be transmitted by facsimile or as a PDF attached to an email, and such facsimile or PDF will, for all purposes, be deemed to be the original signature of such party whose signature it reproduces, and will be binding
upon such party. If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be prohibited or unenforceable by reason of any applicable law of a jurisdiction, then such provision shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such
prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions thereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in such jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provisions in any other jurisdiction. The
Parties each represent, warrant and covenant that (i) each document, notice, instruction or request provided by such Party to Escrow Agent shall comply with applicable laws and regulations; (ii) such Party has full power and authority to
enter into this Agreement and to perform all of the duties and obligations to be performed by it hereunder; and (iii) the person(s) executing this Agreement on such Party’s behalf and certifying Authorized Representatives in the applicable
Schedule 1 has been duly and properly authorized to do so, and each Authorized Representative of such Party has been duly and properly authorized to take actions specified for such person in the applicable Schedule 1. Except as expressly provided in
Section 7 above, nothing in this Agreement, whether express or implied, shall be construed to give to any person or entity other than Escrow Agent and the Parties any legal or equitable right, remedy, interest or claim under or in respect of
the Fund or this Agreement.

 SCHEDULE 2 
  





 
 Schedule of Fees and Disclosures for Escrow Agent Services 

Account Acceptance
Fee                                 $ 

Encompassing review, negotiation and execution of governing documentation, opening of the account, and completion of all due diligence documentation. Payable
upon closing. 
 Annual Administration
Fee                             $ 

The Administration Fee covers our usual and customary ministerial duties, including record keeping, distributions, document compliance and such other duties
and responsibilities expressly set forth in the governing documents for each transaction. Payable upon closing and annually in advance thereafter, without pro-ration for partial years.    

 Extraordinary Services and Out-of-Pocket Expenses: Escrow Agent or
any of its affiliates may receive compensation with respect to any investment directed hereunder including without limitation charging any applicable agency fee or trade execution fee in connection with each transaction. Any additional services
beyond our standard services as specified above, and all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses including attorney’s or accountant’s fees and expenses will be
considered extraordinary services for which related costs, transaction charges, and additional fees will be billed at Escrow Agent’s then standard rate. Escrow Agent may impose, charge, debit, pass-through and modify fees and/or charges for any
account established and services provided by Escrow Agent, including but not limited to, transaction, maintenance, balance-deficiency, and service fees, agency or trade execution fees, and other charges, including those levied by any governmental
authority. 
 Fee Disclosure & Assumptions: Please note that the fees quoted are based on a review of the transaction
documents provided and an internal due diligence review, and assumes the escrow deposit will be continuously invested in [a MMDA][an interest bearing demand deposit account] at JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. Escrow Agent reserves the right to revise,
modify, change and supplement the fees quoted herein if the assumptions underlying the activity in the account, level of balances, market volatility or other factors change from those used to set the fees described herein. 

Payment of the invoice is due upon receipt. 
 Disclosures and
Agreements: 
 Taxes. The Parties shall duly complete such tax documentation or other procedural formalities necessary for Escrow Agent to
complete required tax reporting and for the relevant Party to receive interest or other income without withholding or deduction of tax in any jurisdiction. Should any information supplied in such tax documentation change, the Parties shall promptly
notify Escrow Agent. Escrow Agent shall withhold any taxes it deems appropriate in the absence of proper tax documentation or as required by law, including without limitation, the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (“FATCA”), and shall
remit such taxes to the appropriate authorities. 
 Know Your Customer. To assist in the prevention of the funding of terrorism and money laundering
activities, applicable law may require financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who opens an account. What this means for the Parties: when the Parties open an account, Escrow Agent may ask for
each Party’s name, address, date of birth (for natural persons), and/or other information and documents that will allow Escrow Agent to identify such Party. Escrow Agent may also request and obtain certain information from third party vendors
regarding any Party. To fulfill Escrow Agent’s “know your customer” responsibilities and in connection with its performance of this Agreement, Escrow Agent may request information and/or documentation from each Party from time to
time, including, without limitation, regarding such Party’s organization, business and, to the extent applicable, beneficial owner(s) of such Party, including relevant natural or legal persons, and such Party shall procure and furnish the same
to Escrow Agent in a timely manner. Any information and/or documentation furnished by any Party is the sole responsibility of such Party and Escrow Agent is entitled to rely on the information and/or documentation without making any verification
whatsoever (except for the authentication under the security procedures, as applicable). Each Party represents and warrants that all such information and/or documentation is true, correct and not misleading and shall advise Escrow Agent promptly of
any changes and, except as prohibited by applicable law, such Party agrees to provide complete responses to Escrow Agent’s requests within the timeframes specified. If any Party fails to provide or consent to the provision of any information
required by this paragraph, Escrow Agent may suspend or discontinue providing any service hereunder and resign pursuant to this Agreement. 

  
 16 












 OFAC Disclosure. Escrow Agent is required to act in accordance with the laws and regulations of
various jurisdictions relating to the prevention of money laundering and the implementation of sanctions, including but not limited to regulations issued by the U.S. Office of Foreign Assets Control. Escrow Agent is not obligated to execute payment
orders or effect any other transaction where the beneficiary or other payee is a person or entity with whom Escrow Agent is prohibited from doing business by any law or regulation applicable to Escrow Agent, or in any case where compliance would, in
Escrow Agent’s opinion, conflict with applicable law or banking practice or its own policies and procedures. Where Escrow Agent does not execute a payment order or effect a transaction for such reasons, Escrow Agent may take any action required
by any law or regulation applicable to Escrow Agent including, without limitation, freezing or blocking funds. Transaction screening may result in delays in the posting of transactions. 

Abandoned Property. Escrow Agent is required to act in accordance with the laws and regulations of various states relating to abandoned property,
escheatment or similar law and, accordingly, shall be entitled to remit dormant funds to any state as abandoned property in accordance with such laws and regulations. Without limitation of the foregoing, notwithstanding any instruction to the
contrary, Escrow Agent shall not be liable to any Party for any amount disbursed from an account maintained under this Agreement to a governmental entity or public official in compliance with any applicable abandoned property, escheatment or similar
law. 
 Information. The Parties authorize Escrow Agent to disclose information with respect to this Agreement and the account(s) established
hereunder, the Parties, or any transaction hereunder if such disclosure is: (i) necessary in Escrow Agent’s opinion, for the purpose of allowing Escrow Agent to perform its duties and to exercise its powers and rights hereunder or for
operational or risk management purposes or compliance with legal, tax and regulatory requirements, including, without limitation, FATCA; (ii) to a proposed assignee of the rights of Escrow Agent; (iii) to a branch, affiliate, subsidiary,
employee or agent of Escrow Agent or to their auditors, regulators or legal advisers or to any competent court; (iv) to the auditors of any of the Parties; or (v) required by applicable law, regardless of whether the disclosure is made in
the country in which each Party resides, in which the Escrow Account is maintained, or in which the transaction is conducted. The Parties agree that such disclosures by Escrow Agent and its affiliates may be transmitted across national boundaries
and through networks, including those owned by third parties. 
 Acknowledgment of Compensation and Multiple Roles. Escrow Agent is authorized to act
under this Agreement notwithstanding that Escrow Agent or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates (such subsidiaries and affiliates hereafter individually called an “Affiliate” and collectively called “Affiliates”) may
(A) receive fees or derive earnings (float) as a result of providing an investment product or account on the books of Escrow Agent pursuant to this Agreement or for providing services or referrals with respect
to investment products, or (B) (i) act in the same transaction in multiple capacities, (ii) engage in other transactions or relationships with the same entities to which Escrow Agent may be providing escrow or other services
under this Agreement, (iii) refer clients to an Affiliate for services or (iv) enter into agreements under which referrals of escrow or related transactions are provided to Escrow Agent. JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. may earn
compensation from any of these activities in addition to the fees charged for services under this Agreement. 
 FDIC Disclosure. In the event
Escrow Agent becomes insolvent or enters into receivership, Escrow Agent may provide to the Federal 
 Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”)
account balance information for any account governed by this Agreement, as reflected on Escrow Agent’s end-of-day ledger balance, and the customer name and tax
identification number associated with such accounts for the purposes of determining the appropriate deposit insurance coverage. Funds held in such accounts will be insured by the FDIC under its applicable rules and limits. 

THE FOLLOWING DISCLOSURES ARE REQUIRED TO BE PROVIDED UNDER APPLICABLE U.S. REGULATIONS, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, FEDERAL RESERVE REGULATION D. WHERE
SPECIFIC INVESTMENTS ARE NOTED BELOW, THE DISCLOSURES APPLY ONLY TO THOSE INVESTMENTS AND NOT TO ANY OTHER INVESTMENT.     

Demand Deposit Account Disclosure. Escrow Agent is authorized, for regulatory reporting and internal accounting purposes, to divide an escrow demand
deposit account maintained in the U.S. in which the Fund is held into a non-interest bearing demand deposit internal account and a non-interest bearing savings internal
account, and to transfer funds on a daily basis between these internal accounts on Escrow Agent’s general ledger in accordance with U.S. law at no cost to the Parties. Escrow Agent will record the internal accounts and any transfers between
them on Escrow Agent’s books and records only. The internal accounts and any transfers between them will not affect the Fund, any investment or disposition of the Fund, use of the escrow demand deposit account or any other activities under this
Agreement, except as described herein. Escrow Agent will establish a target balance for the demand deposit internal account, which may change at any time. To the extent funds in the demand deposit internal account exceed the target balance, the
excess will be transferred to the savings internal account, unless the maximum number of transfers from the savings internal account for that calendar month or statement cycle has already occurred. If withdrawals from the demand deposit internal
account exceeds the available balance in the demand deposit internal account, funds from the savings internal account will be transferred to the demand deposit internal account up to the entire balance of available funds in the savings internal
account to cover the shortfall and to replenish any target balance that Escrow Agent has established for the demand deposit internal account. If a sixth transfer is needed during a calendar month or statement cycle, it will be for the entire balance
in the savings internal account, and such funds will remain in the demand deposit internal account for the remainder of the calendar month or statement cycle. 

  
 17 












 MMDA Disclosure and Agreement. Escrow Agent is required by U.S. law to reserve the right to require
at least seven (7) days’ notice prior to a withdrawal from a money market deposit account. 
 Unlawful Internet Gambling. The use of any
account to conduct transactions (including, without limitation, the acceptance or receipt of funds through an electronic funds transfer, or by check, draft or similar instrument, or the proceeds of any of the foregoing) that are related, directly or
indirectly, to unlawful Internet gambling is strictly prohibited. 
 Recordings. Each Party and Escrow Agent consent to the other party or parties
making and retaining recordings of telephone conversations between any Party or Parties on one hand and Escrow Agent on the other hand in connection with Escrow Agent’s security procedures. 

Use of Electronic Records and Signatures. As used in this Agreement, the terms “writing” and “written” include electronic records,
and the terms “execute”, “signed” and “signature” include the use of electronic signatures. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or the attached Exhibits and Schedules, any electronic signature that is
presented as the signature of the purported signer, regardless of the appearance or form of such electronic signature, may be deemed genuine by Escrow Agent in Escrow Agent’s sole discretion, and such electronic signature shall be of the same
legal effect, validity and enforceability as a manually executed, original, wet-inked signature. Any electronically signed agreement shall be an “electronic record” established in the ordinary course
of business and any copy shall constitute an original for all purposes. The terms “electronic signature” and “electronic record” shall have the meanings ascribed to them in 15 USC § 7006. This Agreement and any instruction
or other document furnished hereunder may be transmitted by facsimile or as a PDF file attached to an email.
