Article 1

PURCHASE AND SALE


 


		1.1	Definitions. Unless defined elsewhere in this Agreement, capitalized terms have the meaning
set forth in Exhibit A. 



 


		1.2	Purchase and Sale. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, at the
Closing, Seller shall sell, assign, transfer, convey and deliver to Buyer, and Buyer shall purchase and acquire, all right, title
and interest in and to the Interest, in each case free and clear of any and all Encumbrances.



 


		1.3	Purchase Price. [______________]*. At the Closing, Buyer shall pay the Estimated Purchase
Price by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Seller.

Stoel Rives LLP, 900 SW Fifth Avenue, Portland, Oregon concurrent with the signing of this Agreement. The Closing is deemed to
have occurred at 12:01 a.m. Pacific time on the Closing Date.



 


		1.5	Closing Deliveries.



 


		(a)	At the Closing, Seller shall deliver to Buyer (i) an Interest Assignment in a form mutually agreed
upon between the Seller and Buyer (“Interest Assignment”) duly signed by an officer of Seller, and (ii) evidence

		(b)	At the Closing, Buyer shall deliver to Seller or cause to be delivered to Seller (i) an Interest
Assignment duly signed by an officer of Buyer and (ii) the payoff letter in a form mutually agreed upon between the Seller and
Buyer (the “Payoff Letter”) duly signed by an officer of ARC Group Worldwide, Inc. and payment of the amounts
described therein by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Seller.



 


		1.6	Operating Cash. At Closing, the Company shall have not less than Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000)
in Acquired Company Cash.



 


		1.7	Post-Closing Payment. 



 


		(a)	Preparation of Closing Statement. Within five days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall deliver
to Seller its proposed (i) Closing Balance Sheet, prepared in accordance with the Accounting Standards, (ii) calculation of Closing
Net Book Value, derived from the Closing Balance Sheet and prepared consistent with the Closing Net Book Value Example, and (iii)
Post-Closing Adjustment, each prepared in good faith. The “Post-Closing Adjustment” is an amount equal to Closing
Net Book Value, as finally determined pursuant to this Section 1.7, minus the Estimated Purchase Price. If the Post-Closing Adjustment
is a positive number, Buyer shall pay Seller an amount equal to the Post-Closing Adjustment in accordance with Section 1.7(g).
If the Post-Closing Adjustment is a negative number, Seller shall pay Buyer an amount equal to the Post-Closing Adjustment in accordance
with Section 1.7(g).



 


		(b)	Examination. Seller will have ten days after receipt of the Closing Statement (the “Review

		(c)	Objection. On or before the last day of the Review Period, Seller may object to Buyer’s
proposed Closing Balance Sheet, Closing Net Book Value, and Post-Closing Adjustment by delivering to Buyer a written statement
setting forth Seller’s objections in reasonable detail, indicating each disputed item or amount and the basis for Seller’s disagreement
(the “Statement of Objections”). If Seller fails to deliver the Statement of Objections before the expiration
of the Review Period, the proposed Closing Balance Sheet, Closing Net Book Value, and Post-Closing Adjustment reflected in the
Closing Statement are deemed accepted by Seller. If Seller delivers a Statement of Objections before the expiration of the Review
Period, Seller and Buyer shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such objections within 15 days after the delivery of the Statement
of Objections (the “Resolution Period”). If the objections are resolved within the Resolution Period, the Closing
Balance Sheet, Closing Net Book Value, and Post-Closing Adjustment, with changes agreed in writing by Seller and Buyer, will be
final and binding.

		(d)	Resolution of Disputes. If Buyer and Seller fail to reach an agreement with respect to all
of the matters set forth in the Statement of Objections before the Resolution Period expires, Buyer and Seller shall submit any
amounts remaining in dispute (“Disputed Amounts”) for resolution to an impartial nationally recognized firm of
independent certified public accountants other than Buyer’s or Seller’s accountants (the “Independent Accountant”).
The Independent Account will act as an expert subject to the terms of this Section 2.4 and not an arbitrator, and shall resolve
the Disputed Amounts only and make any adjustments to the Closing Balance Sheet, Closing Net Book Value, and Post-Closing Adjustment
in accordance with the Accounting Standards. Buyer and Seller agree that all adjustments will be made without regard to materiality.
The Independent Accountant shall only decide the specific items under dispute by Buyer and Seller, and its decision for each Disputed
Amount must be within the range of values assigned to each item in the Closing Balance Sheet, Closing Net Book Value, and Post-Closing
Adjustment set forth in the Closing Statement and the Statement of Objections, respectively.



 


		(e)	Fees of the Independent Accountants. Buyer shall pay a portion of the fees and expenses
of the Independent Accountant equal to 100% multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount of Disputed Amounts
submitted to the Independent Accountant that are resolved in favor of Seller (i.e., the difference between the Independent
Accountant’s determination and Buyer’s determination) and the denominator of which is the total amount of Disputed Amounts submitted
to the Independent Accountant (i.e., the sum total by which Seller’s determination and Buyer’s determination differ from
the determination of the Independent Accountant). Seller shall pay that portion of the fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant
that Buyer is not required to pay under this paragraph.



 


		(f)	Determination by Independent Accountant. The Independent Accountant shall make a determination
as soon as practicable within 30 days (or such other time as Buyer and Seller agree in writing) after its engagement. The Independent
Accountant’s resolution of the Disputed Amounts and adjustments to Closing Balance Sheet, Closing Net Book Value, and Post-Closing
Adjustment is conclusive and binding upon the Parties.



 


		(g)	Payments of Post-Closing Adjustment. Payment of the Post-Closing Adjustment, together with
interest calculated as set forth below, is due (i) within three Business Days of acceptance of the Closing Statement or (ii) if
there are Disputed Amounts, then within three Business Days of the resolution of the Disputed Amounts. The Post-Closing Adjustment
must be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account directed by Buyer or Seller, as the case may be. The
amount of any Post-Closing Adjustment bears interest from and including the Closing Date to, but excluding, the date of payment
at a rate per year equal to the rate of interest published by the Wall Street Journal as the “prime rate” at large
U.S. money center banks. Interest is calculated daily on the basis of a 365 day year and the actual number of days elapsed, compounded
daily.

shall be determined on the basis of a closing of the books as of the end of the Closing Date (and for such purpose, the taxable
period of any partnership or other pass-through entity in which the Company holds a beneficial interest shall to the extent practical
be deemed to terminate at such time); and (ii) in the case of other Taxes, the amount of such Taxes that are attributable to the
Pre-Closing Tax Period shall equal the amount of such Tax for the entire taxable period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator
of which is the number of days in the taxable period through and including the Closing Date, and the denominator of which is the
total number of days in the taxable period.



 


		(e)	Neither Buyer nor any of its Affiliates, including the Company, shall file any amended Tax Return
for or including any Pre-Closing Tax Period without Seller’s express written consent.



 


		5.2	Cooperation on Tax Matters. Seller, the Company and Buyer shall reasonably cooperate, and
shall cause their respective Affiliates, officers, employees, agents, auditors and other representatives reasonably to cooperate,
in preparing, executing and filing all Tax Returns relating to the Company and in resolving all disputes and audits relating to
Taxes of the Company. Such cooperation shall include maintaining and making available to each other all records relating to Taxes
of the Company and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information or explanation of
any materials provided hereunder or to testify at any Actions relating to Taxes of the Company. Seller and Buyer agree (a) to retain
all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Company relating to any Tax Period beginning before the Closing
Date until the applicable statute of limitations (as may be extended) has expired and to abide by all record retention agreements
entered into with any Governmental Authority; and (b) to allow the other Party and its representatives at times and dates mutually
acceptable to the Parties, to inspect, review and make copies of such records as such Party may deem necessary or appropriate from
time to time, such activities to be conducted during normal business hours at such Party’s expense. Seller shall have the right
to control any audit, litigation, or other proceeding with respect to any tax Return of the Company relating exclusively to a Pre-Closing
Tax Period, provided that (i) Seller must act in a manner consistent with the Company’s prior practices, except to the extent required
by applicable Law and the terms of this Agreement and (ii) Buyer shall have the right to notice of, and if and to the extent such
audit, litigation, or other proceeding could result in Losses to Buyer in a Post-Closing Tax Period, to participate in, any such
audit, litigation, or other proceeding at Buyer’s expense. Buyer shall have the right to control any other audit, litigation, or
other proceeding, including the entire Tax Return for any Straddle Period, provided that Seller shall have the right to notice
of, and to participate in, any such audit, litigation, or other proceeding at Seller’s expense, if and to the extent Seller would
have Liability as a result of such audit, litigation, or other proceeding.

relating to any Pre-Closing Tax Period received by Buyer, the Company or any of their Affiliates after the Closing Date shall be
for the account of Seller, and Buyer shall pay over to Seller the amount of any such refund within 10 Business Days after its receipt.

		6.3	Indemnification by Buyer. Buyer shall indemnify and hold harmless Seller and its respective
Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, successors and assigns (each a “Seller Indemnified Party”)
from and against any and all Losses, arising out of or resulting from:



 


		(a)	the breach of any representation or warranty made by Buyer contained in this Agreement;



 


		(b)	the breach of any covenant or agreement by the Buyer (or, with respect to periods after Closing,
by the Company) contained in this Agreement; or



 


		(c)	all Liability for Taxes of the Company for all Post-Closing Tax Periods.



 


		6.4	Limits on Indemnification.



 


		(a)	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement: (i) except with respect to
claims relating to the Seller Fundamental Reps, Seller is not liable for any claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 6.2
unless and until the aggregate amount of indemnifiable Losses under that section equals or exceeds 1% of the Purchase Price,
after which point the Seller is obligated to indemnify the Buyer Indemnified Party from and against any and all amounts of indemnifiable
Losses that exceed 1% of the Purchase Price; (ii) except with respect to claims relating to the Seller Fundamental Reps, the maximum
amount of indemnifiable Losses that may be recovered from the Seller is an amount equal to 20% of the Purchase Price; (iii) the
maximum aggregate amount of indemnifiable Losses that may be recovered from the Seller arising out of or resulting from a breach
of a Seller Fundamental Rep is an amount equal to 100% of the Purchase Price; and (iv) Buyer is not entitled to indemnification
for breach of Section 2.10 (Taxes) with respect to any Post-Closing Tax Period. This section does not apply with respect
to indemnification under Section 6.3.



 


		(b)	In calculating the indemnifiable Losses suffered by the Indemnified Party, the amount of any claim
is calculated net of any Tax benefit to the Indemnified Party as a result of the Loss and is reduced by any amounts the Indemnified
Party has received from third parties in connection with the matter, including any indemnification or other recovery under any
contract, agreement, or arrangement between a Buyer Indemnified Party and any third party and any insurance proceeds. The Indemnified
Party shall take, and cause its Affiliates to take, all reasonable steps to mitigate any Loss upon becoming aware of any event
or circumstance that would be reasonably expected to, or does, give rise thereto, including pursuing third party recoveries and
incurring costs only to the minimum extent necessary to remedy the breach that gives rise to such Loss. Nothing in this section precludes
an Indemnified Party from giving notice of its indemnity claim before exhausting its remedies. If the Indemnified Party receives
any third party payments after an indemnification payment is made that relates thereto, the Indemnified Party shall promptly repay
to the Indemnifying Party the amount of the indemnification payment the Indemnifying Party would not have paid had the third-party
payment reduced the original indemnification payment.

		(c)	An Indemnified Party shall not assert claims with respect to, or recover damages for, Losses for
any punitive, incidental, consequential, special or indirect damages, including loss of future revenue or income, loss of business
reputation or opportunity relating to the breach or alleged breach of this Agreement, or diminution of value or any damages based
on any type of multiple, except to the extent the Indemnified Party is required to pay punitive damages to a third party pursuant
to a Third Party Claim.



 


		(d)	Buyer is not entitled to indemnification under this Article 6 arising out of breach of representations
or warranties made in this Agreement by the Seller, to the extent Buyer, or any of the Buyer’s Affiliates, advisors, agents, consultants
or representatives, had knowledge as of the date the representation or warranty was made that any representation and warranty made
in this Agreement by the Seller was inaccurate or untrue.



 


		(e)	An Indemnified Party may not recover duplicative indemnifiable Losses in respect of a single set
of facts or circumstances under more than one representation, warranty, covenant, or agreement in this Agreement.



 


		6.5	Notice of Loss; Third Party Claims.



 


		(a)	An Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party prompt notice of any matter that an Indemnified
Party has determined has given or could give rise to a right of indemnification under this Agreement, as soon as practicable, stating
the amount of the Loss, if known, and method of computation of the Loss, and containing a reference to the provisions of this Agreement
in respect of which the right of indemnification is claimed or arises.



 


		(b)	If an Indemnified Party receives notice of any Action, demand or assessment (each, a “Third
Party Claim”) against it or that may give rise to a claim for Loss under this Section 6.5, the Indemnified Party
shall give the Indemnifying Party notice of the Third Party Claim within 30 days (10 days in the case of any Third Party Claim
relating to Tax) of the receipt of notice. The failure to provide notice does not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its
obligations under this section except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by the failure. The Indemnifying
Party is entitled to assume and control the defense of the Third Party Claim at its expense and through counsel of its choice if
it gives notice of its intention to do so to the Indemnified Party within 10 Business Days of the receipt of notice from the Indemnified
Party. However, the Indemnified Party is entitled, at its own expense, to participate in the defense of the Third Party Claim subject
to the Indemnifying Party’s right to control the defense of the Third Party Claim.

		(c)	If the Indemnifying Party exercises the right to undertake the defense against a Third Party Claim
as provided above, the Indemnified Party shall reasonably cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in the defense and make available
to the Indemnifying Party, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, all witnesses, pertinent records, materials, and information in
the Indemnified Party’s possession or under the Indemnified Party’s control relating thereto as the Indemnifying Party reasonably
requires. Similarly, if the Indemnified Party is, directly or indirectly, conducting the defense against a Third Party Claim, the
Indemnifying Party shall reasonably cooperate with the Indemnified Party in the defense and make available to the Indemnified Party,
at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, all witnesses, records, materials, and information in the Indemnifying Party’s possession
or under the Indemnifying Party’s control relating thereto as the Indemnified Party reasonably requires.



 


		(d)	The Indemnified Party shall not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement
with respect to the Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be withheld
unreasonably.



 


		6.6	Character of Indemnification Payments. Seller and Buyer agree to treat all payments made
pursuant to this Article 6 (Indemnification) as adjustments to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required
by applicable Law.



 


		6.7	Exclusive Remedy. Except in the case of fraud, the sole remedy of an Indemnified Party for
all indemnifiable Losses with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is the indemnity set forth in Article 6
(Indemnification) (it being understood that nothing in this Article 6 limits the Parties’ rights to specific performance or
other equitable remedies with respect to the covenants referred to in Article 5 (Tax Matters) and Section 7.2 (Confidentiality)).

		7.6	Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including Exhibit A, and the Due Diligence Schedules,
the Interest Assignment, the Payoff Letter, the Closing Net Book Value Example, and the Reference Financial Statements constitute

both written and oral, between Seller and Buyer with respect to the subject matter hereof.

of this Agreement by a decree of specific performance and to temporary, preliminary, and permanent injunctive relief to prevent
breaches or threatened breaches of any of the provisions of this Agreement, without posting any bond or other undertaking.

in controversy among them concerning the terms and provisions of this Agreement. All such disputes and controversies shall be determined
and adjudged by the decision of an arbitrator (the “Arbitrator”) selected by mutual agreement of the Parties or if the
