1.04 Final Net

deliver to the Seller Representative a reasonably detailed statement (the Closing Statement) setting forth Buyers good faith calculations of (i) Cash on Hand, (ii) the Indebtedness Payoff Amount and (iii) the
Net Working Capital Amount.



4



---

For all purposes of this Section 1.04, Cash on Hand, the Indebtedness Payoff Amount and the Net Working Capital shall be determined in accordance with the respective definitions
thereof. After delivery of the Closing Statement by Buyer to the Seller Representative hereunder (including, without limitation, during the period of any dispute hereunder with respect to the Closing Statement and/or any of the calculations set
forth thereon), Buyer shall, and shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to, (I) assist the Seller Representative and its representatives in their review of the Closing Statement and the calculations set forth thereon and provide the
Seller Representative and its representatives reasonable access to the books, work papers (including the work papers of Buyers and/or the Companys accountants) and other records (including schedules, memoranda and other documents),
supporting data, facilities, accountants and employees of Buyer, the Company and its Subsidiaries for purposes of their review of the Closing Statement and the calculations set forth thereon, and (II) cooperate with the Seller Representative and its
representatives in connection with such review, including by providing on a timely basis all other information that the Seller Representative (in good faith) reasonably believes is necessary and/or useful in connection with its review of the Closing
Statement and the calculations set forth thereon. If the Seller Representative has any objections to the Closing Statement and/or any of Buyers calculations of Cash on Hand, the Indebtedness Payoff Amount and/or the Net Working Capital Amount
set forth thereon, the Seller Representative may deliver to Buyer a statement setting forth the Seller Representatives objections thereto (an Objections Statement). If an Objections Statement is not delivered to Buyer within
45 days after delivery by Buyer of the Closing Statement to the Seller Representative, the Closing Statement shall be final and binding upon, and non-appealable by, the parties hereto.

(ii) If an Objections Statement is delivered to Buyer, then the Closing Statement and the calculations of Cash on Hand,
the Indebtedness Payoff Amount and the Net Working Capital Amount set forth thereon, each as revised in accordance with this Section 1.04(a)(ii), shall become final and binding upon the parties on the earlier of (a) the date any and
all matters specified in the Objections Statement are finally resolved in writing by the Seller Representative and Buyer and (b) the date any and all matters specified in the Objections Statement not resolved by the Seller Representative and
Buyer are finally resolved in writing by the Independent Auditor (as defined below). The Closing Statement and the calculations of Cash on Hand, the Indebtedness Payoff Amount and the Net Working Capital Amount set forth thereon (as applicable)
shall be revised to the extent necessary to reflect any resolution by the Seller Representative and Buyer and any final resolution made by the Independent Auditor in accordance with this Section 1.04(a)(ii). During the 30 day period
immediately following the delivery of an Objections Statement (or such longer period as the Seller Representative and Buyer may agree in writing), the Seller Representative and Buyer shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any objections set forth
in the Objections Statement (and all such discussions related thereto shall, unless otherwise agreed by Buyer and the Seller Representative, be governed by Rule 408 of the Federal Rules of Evidence (and any applicable similar state rule)). At the
end of such 30-day period, the Seller Representative and Buyer shall submit to Grant Thornton LLP (the Independent Auditor) for review and resolution in accordance with the terms and provisions hereof, any and all matters (but
only such matters) which remain in dispute with respect to the Objections Statement, the Closing Statement and/or any of the calculations set forth thereon; provided that, if Grant Thornton LLP is unable or unwilling to act as the Independent
Auditor for any reason, then Buyer and the Seller Representative will, by mutual agreement, promptly select another accounting firm to act as the Independent Auditor and such firm shall be deemed to be the Independent Auditor
for purposes hereof. The Seller Representative and Buyer shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Independent Auditor to resolve all such disagreements as soon as practicable (which final resolution by the Independent Auditor
shall be requested by Buyer and the Seller Representative to be delivered not more than 30 days following



5



---

submission of such disputed matters to the Independent Auditor), and Buyer and the Seller Representative shall cooperate with the Independent Auditor during its engagement. The Independent
Auditor may consider only those items and amounts in the Closing Statement and/or Objection Notice which Buyer and the Seller Representative are unable to resolve. In resolving any disputed item, the Independent Auditor may not assign a value to any
item greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by either of Buyer or the Seller Representative or less than the smallest value for such item claimed by either of Buyer or the Seller Representative. The Independent Auditors
determination shall be based solely on written submissions by Buyer and the Seller Representative that are in accordance with the applicable guidelines and procedures set forth herein (i.e., not on the basis of independent review) and on the
definitions included herein. The resolution of the dispute by the Independent Auditor shall be final, binding and non-appealable by the parties hereto. As noted above, the Closing Statement and the calculations of Cash on Hand, the Indebtedness
Payoff Amount and the Net Working Capital Amount set forth thereon (as applicable) shall be modified if necessary to reflect such determination(s). The fees and expenses of the Independent Auditor shall be allocated to be paid by Buyer, on the one
hand, and/or the Sellers, on the other hand, based upon the percentage which the portion of the contested amount not awarded to each party bears to the amount actually contested by such party, as determined by the Independent Auditor. For example,
if the Seller Representative claims the Net Working Capital Amount is $2,000 greater than the amount determined by Buyer, and Buyer contests only $1,000 of the amount claimed by the Seller Representative, and if the Independent Auditor ultimately
resolves the dispute by awarding the Sellers $600 of the $1,000 contested, then the costs and expenses of arbitration will be allocated 60% (i.e., 600 ÷ 1,000) to Buyer and 40% (i.e., 400 ÷ 1,000) to the Sellers. The obligation of any
Seller to pay such amount of the Independent Auditors fees and expenses determined by the Independent Auditors to be paid by the Sellers shall be several and not joint and shall be limited to such Sellers Percentage Share of such amount.

(b) Post-Closing Adjustments.

(i) Cash On Hand Adjustment. If the Cash on Hand as finally determined pursuant to Section 1.04(a) above is greater than the Estimated Cash on Hand, Buyer shall pay to each Seller such
Sellers Percentage Share of such excess in accordance with Section 1.04(c). If the Cash on Hand as finally determined pursuant to Section 1.04(a) above is less than the Estimated Cash on Hand, the Sellers shall pay to
Buyer an amount equal to such shortfall in accordance with Section 1.04(c), with each Seller being required to pay such Sellers Percentage Share of such shortfall in accordance with Section 1.04(c).

(ii) Net Working Capital Adjustment. If the Net Working Capital Amount as finally determined pursuant to
Section 1.04(a) above is greater than the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount, Buyer shall pay to each Seller such Sellers Percentage Share of such excess in accordance with Section 1.04(c). If the Net Working Capital
Amount as finally determined pursuant to Section 1.04(a) above is less than the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount, the Sellers shall pay to Buyer an amount equal to such shortfall in accordance with Section 1.04(c), with
each Seller being required to pay such Sellers Percentage Share of such shortfall in accordance with Section 1.04(c).

(iii) Indebtedness Payoff Amount Adjustment. If the Indebtedness Payoff Amount as finally determined pursuant to Section 1.04(a) above is less than the Estimated Indebtedness Payoff
Amount, Buyer shall pay to each Seller such Sellers Percentage Share of such shortfall in accordance with Section 1.04(c). If the Indebtedness Payoff Amount as finally determined pursuant to Section 1.04(a) above is
greater than the Estimated Indebtedness Payoff Amount, the Sellers shall pay to Buyer an amount equal to such excess in accordance with Section 1.04(c), with each Seller being required to pay such Sellers Percentage Share of such
excess in accordance with Section 1.04(c).



6



---

(c) Final Adjustment Amount. Without duplication, all amounts owed pursuant to
Section 1.04(b)(i), (ii) and (iii) shall be aggregated, and the net amount (if any) owed by Buyer to the Sellers, on the one hand, or the Sellers to Buyer, on the other hand, is referred to as the Final
Adjustment Amount; it being understood and agreed that if the net effect pursuant to this Section 1.04(c) is an increase in the Common Purchase Price, then Buyer shall make a cash payment to each Seller in an amount equal to
such Sellers Percentage Share of the Final Adjustment Amount, and if the net effect pursuant to this Section 1.04(c) is a decrease in the Common Purchase Price, then each Seller shall pay to Buyer an amount equal to such
Sellers Percentage Share of such Final Adjustment Amount. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 1.04 to the contrary, if the Final Adjustment Amount is to be paid by the Sellers to Buyer, then the Sellers obligation to pay
such Final Adjustment Amount shall be first satisfied from any then remaining balance in the Escrow Account, and in the event that the then remaining balance in the Escrow Account is insufficient to pay the Final Adjustment Amount in full, then the
remaining unpaid portion of the Final Adjustment Amount (i.e., the portion of the Final Adjustment Amount that is not paid to Buyer from the Escrow Account) shall be paid directly by the Sellers, with each Seller being required to pay such
Sellers Percentage Share of such remaining unpaid portion of the Final Adjustment Amount to Buyer directly. The Final Adjustment Amount shall be calculated as an adjustment to the Common Purchase Price and the Common Purchase Price, as so
adjusted, is referred to herein as the Final Common Purchase Price. Payment of the Final Adjustment Amount shall be paid by delivery of immediately available funds to an account designated by the recipient party(ies) within five
business days after the date of final determination.

(a) After the
Closing, Buyer shall, and shall cause the Company to continue to, indemnify and hold harmless each present and former director and officer (and similar functionary) of the Company and its Subsidiaries (each a Covered Person)
against any costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages or liabilities of any nature whatsoever, incurred in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether
civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of or pertaining to matters existing or occurring at or prior to Closing (excluding fraudulent, willful and criminal misconduct, and excluding any claims under this Agreement against a

date hereof (including the advancing of expenses as incurred to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law); provided, however, the person to whom such expenses are advanced provides an unsecured undertaking to the Company to
repay such advances if it is ultimately determined that such person is not entitled to indemnification.

(b) During the period
from the Closing until the six year anniversary of the Closing Date, (x) Buyer shall cause the Constitutive Documents of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries to contain the provisions with respect to indemnification and exculpation set

Constitutive Documents of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries relating to the exculpation or indemnification of any Covered Person (unless required by law), it being the intent of the parties that the Covered Persons shall continue to be entitled

29



---

(c) At the Closing, Buyer shall purchase a fully-paid up extended reporting period
endorsement under the Companys existing directors and officers liability insurance coverage covering the Covered Persons who are presently covered by the Companys and its Subsidiaries officers and directors
liability insurance policies with respect to actions and omissions occurring at or prior to the Closing in a form reasonably acceptable to the Seller Representative that shall provide such Covered Persons for six (6) years following the Closing
with coverage no less extensive than the existing directors and officers liability insurance coverage maintained by the Company and its Subsidiaries and having other terms no less favorable to the Covered Persons covered thereby than the
existing coverage.

(d) In the event that after the Closing Date, Buyer or the Company, or 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 Person, then, and in each case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Buyer or the Company, as the case may be, honor the indemnification and other obligations of such Persons, including under this
Section 6.02.

(e) The provisions of this Section 6.02 are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be
enforceable by, each Covered Person.

6.03 Conditions. From the date hereof until the earlier to occur of the Closing
Date and the date that this Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, on and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the conditions set forth in Article VIII to be

to, contact and/or communicate with any employee, officer, director, customer, supplier or other material business relation of the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or otherwise with
respect to matters pertaining to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries and/or any of their respective businesses, except those individuals identified on Section 6.04 of the Disclosure Schedule or with the prior written consent of the
Seller Representative or the Company.

6.05 Employee Benefits. For eligibility and vesting purposes under the employee
benefit plans of Buyer and its Affiliates providing benefits after the Closing Date, Buyer shall cause each employee who is as of the Closing Date an employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to be credited with his or her years of service
with the Company or such Subsidiary, as applicable, before the Closing Date, to the same extent as such employee was entitled, before the Closing Date, to credit for such service under any similar Plans, except to the extent such credit would result
in a duplication of benefits. In addition, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing: (i) Buyer shall provide that each employee shall be immediately eligible to participate, without any waiting time, in any and all employee benefit
plans sponsored by Buyer and its Affiliates for the benefit of employees (such plans, collectively, the New Plans) to the extent coverage under such New Plan replaces coverage under a comparable employee benefit plan in which such
employee participated immediately before the Closing Date (such Plans, collectively, the Old Plans), unless such waiting time applied under the Old Plans; and (ii) for purposes of each New Plan providing medical, dental,
pharmaceutical or vision benefits to any employee, Buyer shall cause all pre-existing condition exclusions and actively-at-work requirements of such New Plan to be waived for such employee and his or her covered dependents (unless such exclusions or
requirements applied under the Old Plans), and Buyer shall cause any eligible expenses incurred by such employee and his or her covered dependents during the portion of the plan year of the Old Plan ending on the date such employees
participation in the corresponding New Plan begins to be taken into



30



---

account under such New Plan for purposes of satisfying all deductible, coinsurance and maximum out-of-pocket requirements applicable to such employee and his or her covered dependents for the
applicable plan year as if such amounts had been paid in accordance with such New Plan.

6.06 Confidentiality. Buyer
hereby agrees to be bound by the Confidentiality Agreement, dated October 11, 2010, between Boise Inc. and Houlihan Lokey Capital, Inc. (on behalf of the Company) (the Confidentiality Agreement), with and to the same extent
as Boise Inc., as though originally party thereto, and Buyer acknowledges that it and its representatives and advisors remain bound by the Confidentiality Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, prior to the Closing Date and after any termination
of this Agreement, Buyer shall hold and shall cause its Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, accountants, counsel, consultants, advisors and agents to hold, in confidence, all documents and information concerning the Company or any Subsidiary
of the Company or any Seller furnished to Buyer or any of its Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, accountants, counsel, consultants, advisors and/or agents in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in the manner and
for the term specified in the Confidentiality Agreement.

6.07 WARN Act Notice. For a period of ninety days after the
Closing Date, Buyer shall not, and shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries not to, take any action as would trigger any liability under the WARN Act or any similar Laws. Buyer shall be solely responsible for providing any notice or other filing
required under the WARN Act or any similar Laws in respect of the termination after the Closing of the employment of any employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, and shall indemnify and hold the Sellers harmless from any liability arising
from any failure of Buyer to comply fully with this Section 6.07.

6.08 Letters of Credit. Concurrently
with the Closing, Buyer will arrange to replace all of the letters of credit of the Company and/or its Subsidiaries set forth on Section 6.08 of the Disclosure Schedule to the extent such letters of credit are terminated at or prior to

investigation and the representations and warranties of the Company and the Sellers expressly and specifically set forth in this Agreement (as specifically qualified by the Disclosure Schedule).
Buyer further acknowledges and agrees that neither the Company, nor any of its Subsidiaries nor any of the Sellers make any representations or warranties whatsoever with respect to such estimates, projections and other forecasts and plans (including

accounting methods of the Company and its Subsidiaries. At least thirty (30) days prior to the due date (after taking into account all appropriate extensions) of any material income Tax Return that is to be filed by the Company or any
Subsidiary of the Company after the date hereof but prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall submit a draft of such Tax Return to the Buyer for its review and comment. The Company and its Subsidiaries shall incorporate any reasonable comments
made by the Buyer prior to the filing of such Tax Return.

(ii) Buyer, at its sole cost and expense, shall
timely prepare or cause to be timely prepared and timely file or cause to be timely filed all Tax Returns for the Company and its Subsidiaries for a Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period that are due (after taking into account all appropriate
extensions) after the Closing Date. Such Tax Returns shall be prepared on a basis consistent with existing procedures and practices and accounting methods of the Company and its Subsidiaries and, to the extent applicable, the conventions provided in
Section 7.02(a)(iii). At least thirty (30) days prior to the due date (after taking into account all appropriate extensions) of any material income Tax Return of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company for a Pre-Closing Tax
Period (or any Tax Return that shows a Tax that is payable that the Buyer believes is any Sellers obligation to pay or indemnify under this Agreement), or the filing of any amended Tax Return as permitted under Section 7.02(a)(iv),
Buyer shall submit a draft of such Tax Return to the Seller Representative for its review and comment. Buyer shall cause the Company or applicable Subsidiary to incorporate any reasonable comments made by the Seller Representative prior to the
filing of such Tax Return.

(iii) For purposes of preparing all Tax Returns, and for purposes of determining
whether to make (or not to make) certain Tax elections, the Sellers, the Seller Representative and Buyer agree to use the following conventions (and to cause the Company and each Subsidiary of the Company and Buyers other Affiliates to use the
following conventions):

(A) Any Transaction Deductions resulting from the payment or accrual of an amount in
a Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be treated as occurring on the Closing Date and no party hereto shall make any election under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-76(b)(1)(ii)(B) (or any similar provision of state, local, or non-U.S. applicable
Law) to apply the next day rule to such deductions.



32



---

(B) Any gains, income, deductions, losses, or other items resulting from
transactions outside of the ordinary course of business and not contemplated by this Agreement occurring on the Closing Date at the direction of the Buyer, but after the Closing, shall be treated as occurring on the day after the Closing Date and
each party hereto shall utilize the next day rule in Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-76(b)(1)(ii)(B) (or any similar provision of state, local, or non-U.S. applicable Law) for purposes of reporting such items on applicable Tax
Returns.

(C) No party shall make an election under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-76(b)(2)(ii) (or
any similar provision of state, local, or non-U.S. applicable Law) to ratably allocate items incurred by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

(D) All elections and decisions permitted under applicable Tax Law with respect to whether or not to carryback a net operating loss or other Tax attribute or Tax credit recognized in a Pre-Closing
Tax Period shall be made so that the net operating loss, Tax attribute or Tax credit is first carried back to the extent permitted under applicable Tax laws prior to being carried forward into a Post-Closing Tax Period; provided,
however, that this Section 7.02(a)(iii)(D) shall only apply if such election or decision will result in a refund of, or a reduction in, Taxes for such Pre-Closing Tax Period exceeding $50,000.

(E) To the extent permissible under applicable Laws, to elect to have each Tax year of the Company and its Subsidiaries
end on the Closing Date and, if such election is not permitted or required in a jurisdiction such that the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company is required to file a Tax Return for Straddle Period, the parties agree to use the following
conventions for determining the amount of Taxes attributable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date: (a) in the case of Income Taxes, Taxes imposed on sales or receipts and Taxes imposed on payments, the amount
attributable to such portion shall be determined as if the Company or Subsidiary of the Company filed a separate Tax Return with respect to such Taxes for the portion of the Straddle Period ending as of the end of the day on the Closing Date using a
closing of the books methodology; and (b) in the case of all other Taxes, the amount attributable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date shall be determined by multiplying the Taxes for the entire Straddle
Period by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire Straddle Period. For purposes of
clause (a), any item determined on an annual or periodic basis (including amortization and depreciation deductions) shall be allocated to the portion of the Straddle Period that ends on the Closing Date based on the relative number of days in such
portion as compared to the number of days in the entire Straddle Period.

(F) No election under Code
Section 338(g) shall be made with respect to the acquisition (or deemed acquisition) of the Company or any domestic Subsidiary of the Company.

(G) Each party shall treat the interest and other earnings on the Escrow Agreement as interest and other earnings of the Buyer in accordance with the transition rules set forth in Proposed Treasury
Regulation Section 1.468-8(h)(2) and ensure that the Escrow Agreement includes provisions consistent with such treatment.



33

(iv) Unless required under applicable Tax Law or as a result of a
determination of a Governmental Authority that is final, Buyer shall not, and shall not allow the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company, to amend a Tax Return for a Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period (or claim a refund for Taxes for a
Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period) without the prior written permission of the Seller Representative.

(b)
Cooperation on Tax Matters. Buyer, the Company and its Subsidiaries, the Seller Representative and the Sellers shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns
pursuant to this Section 7.02 and any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes (including Tax Contests). Such cooperation shall include the retention for the full period of any statute of limitations and (upon the
other partys request) the provision of records and information that are reasonably relevant to any such Tax Return, audit, litigation or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional
information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. The Company and its Subsidiaries, and the Sellers agree (A) to retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Company and its Subsidiaries relating to
any Taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until the expiration of the statute of limitations (and, to the extent notified by Buyer or the Sellers, any extensions thereof) of the respective Taxable periods, and to abide by all record
retention agreements relating to Taxes entered into with any Governmental Authority, and (B) to give the other party reasonable written notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any such books and records and, if the other party so
requests, the Company and its Subsidiaries, or the Sellers, as the case may be, shall allow the other party to take possession of such books and records.

(c) Transfer Taxes. The Sellers, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, will each pay one-half of any documentary, stamp, stock transfer, registration, recording or similar Tax or charge
imposed on the Company and its Subsidiaries or one or more of the Sellers as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (collectively, Transfer Taxes), and any penalties or interest with respect to the Transfer
Taxes. The parties agree to cooperate with each other in the filing of any returns with respect to the Transfer Taxes, including promptly supplying any information in their possession reasonably requested by the other party that is reasonably
necessary to complete such returns.

(d) Tax Contest.

(i) If any Governmental Authority issues to the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company (1) a notice of its intent
to audit or conduct another legal proceeding with respect to a Tax Return or Taxes of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company for any Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period or (2) a notice of deficiency for Taxes for any such period,
Buyer or the Company shall notify the Seller Representative of its receipt of such communication from the Governmental Entity within twenty (20) days of receipt. The Company or applicable Subsidiary of the Company shall control any audit or
other legal proceeding in respect of any Taxes or Tax Returns of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company (a Tax Contest); provided, however, (1) the Seller Representative, at the Sellers sole cost and
expense, shall have the right to participate in any Tax Contest to the extent it relates to a Pre-Closing Tax Period and (2) Buyer shall not, and shall not allow the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company to settle, resolve or abandon a Tax
Contest (whether or not the Seller Representative participates) for a Pre-Closing Tax Period or a Straddle Period without the prior written consent of the Seller Representative (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed, or
conditioned); provided, however, if there is a settlement proposal that the Buyer believes is reasonably acceptable (and is



34



---

acceptable to the Governmental Authority) and the Seller Representative has not consented to such settlement in accordance with this Section 7.02(d), the Buyer can settle, or cause
the Company or the applicable Subsidiary of the Company to settle, the Tax Contest on such terms if the Sellers have not provided collateral equal to 125% of the Taxes that would have been payable under the proposed settlement or otherwise provided
Buyer with assurances (deemed adequate by the Buyer in its commercially reasonable judgment) that the Sellers will ultimately pay the Taxes with respect to such Tax Contest and all costs and expenses of the Buyer, the Company and any Subsidiary of
the Company with respect to the continuation of such Tax Contest.

(ii) If the Seller Representative elects to
participate in a Tax Contest, (1) the Seller Representative shall notify Buyer of such intent (2) Buyer shall control, or cause the Company or applicable Subsidiary of the Company to control, such Tax Contest in a commercially reasonable
manner (3) Buyer shall (and shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to) take all actions necessary to allow the Seller Representative (and its counsel) to fully participate in such Tax Contest and (4) if requested by the Seller
Representative, Buyer shall settle (or cause the Company or applicable Subsidiary of the Company to settle) any such Tax Contest on terms acceptable to the Governmental Authority and the Seller Representative, provided that (x) such
settlement will not result in the Buyer or any Affiliate of the Buyer incurring any Tax in a Post-Closing Tax Period (or portion of a Straddle Period ending after the Closing Date) and (y) if the funds are not available in the Escrow Account,
the Sellers have provided to the Company or the Buyer all of the funds that Sellers are obligated to pay under this Agreement with respect to the settlement. The Seller Representatives right to participate shall include: (a) consulting
with Buyer or the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company (and their counsel) regarding the conduct of such Tax Contest; (b) timely receiving from Buyer, the Company, or any Subsidiary of the Company all correspondence and other documents
received regarding the Tax Contest from the applicable Governmental Authority; (c) reviewing or commenting on any correspondence and other documents that will be provided to the Governmental Authority with respect to such Tax Contest; and
(d) participating in any conferences or meetings with any Governmental Authority (or counsel for Buyer, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) that are with respect to the Tax Contest.

(iii) If the Seller Representative does not participate in a Tax Contest, (1) Buyer shall control, or cause the
Company or applicable Subsidiary of the Company to control, such Tax Contest in a commercially reasonable manner, (2) Buyer shall keep the Seller Representative reasonably informed regarding the status of such Tax Contest and (3) if
requested by the Seller Representative, Buyer shall settle (or cause the Company or applicable Subsidiary of the Company to settle) any such Tax Contest on terms acceptable to the Governmental Authority and the Seller Representative, provided
that (x) such settlement will not result in the Buyer or any Affiliate of the Buyer incurring any Tax in a Post-Closing Tax Period (or portion of a Straddle Period ending after the Closing Date) and (y) if the funds are not available in
the Escrow Account, the Sellers have provided to the Company or the Buyer all of the funds that Sellers are obligated to pay under this Agreement with respect to the settlement.

(e) Tax-Sharing Agreements. All tax-sharing agreements or similar agreements between the Company and its Subsidiaries and any
Seller shall automatically be deemed terminated as of the Closing Date such that none of the Sellers, the Company and its Subsidiaries shall be bound thereby or have any liability thereunder.



35

(f) Tax Refunds.

(i) All refunds of Taxes of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company for any Pre-Closing Tax Period (or portion of a
Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date as determined in accordance with the same principles provided for in Section 7.02(a)(iii)(E) (whether in the form of cash received or a credit against Taxes otherwise payable) shall be property
of the Sellers to the extent not included as a current asset in the computation of the Net Working Capital. To the extent that Buyer, the Company and/or any Subsidiary of the Company receives a refund that is the property of the Sellers, Buyer shall
pay to the Seller Representative for distribution to the Sellers in accordance with their respective Percentage Shares the amount of such refund (and interest received from the Governmental Authority). The amount due to, or on behalf of, the Sellers
shall be payable ten (10) days after the receipt of the refund from the applicable Governmental Authority (or, if the refund is in the form of a credit, ten (10) days after the due date of the Tax Return claiming the credit).

(ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer shall not be required to make any payment under this
Section 7.02(f) (1) prior to the 30thday
following the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations for the collection of the Tax being refunded or (2) with respect to any refund for Taxes if the Sellers are not, at the time the refund is required to be paid to the Sellers,
required to indemnify the Buyer for any Taxes as a result of the application of the Cap (or to the extent the Sellers would not at the time the refund is received be required under this Agreement to indemnify the Buyer for the loss or reduction in
the refund).

(iii) Provided that such actions will result in a refund of, or a reduction in, Taxes for such
Pre-Closing Tax Period exceeding $50,000 and provided that Sellers reimburse Buyer for its costs and expenses of taking such actions, Buyer shall (and shall cause the Company and any Subsidiary of the Company or other Affiliates of the Buyer to)
take all commercially reasonable actions necessary, or requested by the Seller Representative, to timely claim a refund for Taxes (or timely claim a Tax Benefit) that would result in a payment to (or reduction in a Loss payable by) the Sellers under
this Agreement. Such actions shall include, as applicable, timely filing an IRS Form 1139 (and comparable form for state or local or non U.S. Tax purposes) to claim a refund from the carrying back of any net operating loss incurred in the year
ending on the Closing Date and an IRS Form 4466 (and comparable form for state or local or non-U.S. Tax purposes) claiming a refund for the overpayment of an estimated Taxes paid on or prior to the Closing Date).

7.03 Further Assurances. From time to time, as and when requested by any party hereto and at such requesting partys expense,
any other party hereto shall execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, all such documents and instruments and shall take, or cause to be taken, all such further or other actions as the requesting party may reasonably deem necessary
or desirable to evidence and effectuate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement on and subject to the terms and conditions hereof.

7.04 Litigation Support. In the event and for so long as any party hereto actively is contesting or defending against any action, suit, proceeding, hearing, investigation, charge, complaint, claim
or demand in connection with (a) any transaction contemplated by this Agreement or (b) any fact, situation, circumstance, status, condition, activity, practice, plan, occurrence, event, incident, action, failure to act or transaction on or
prior to the Closing Date involving the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, at the reasonable request of the contesting or defending party, each of the other parties hereto will use their commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the

7.05 Transition. During the period from the date hereof to the earlier of immediately
prior to the Closing and the date that this Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, no Seller listed on Section 7.05 of the Disclosure Schedule (solely for itself, himself or herself and not for any other Person) shall
knowingly take any action that is primarily designed or intended to have the effect of discouraging any lessor, licensor, customer, supplier or other material business associate of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries from maintaining
substantially the same business relationships with the Company and its Subsidiaries immediately following the Closing as it maintained with the Company and its Subsidiaries as of immediately prior to the date hereof; it being understood and agreed,
for the avoidance of doubt, that any action taken by any such Seller in complying with the terms of this Agreement shall not be deemed to be a breach of this Section 7.05.

7.06 Confidentiality.

(a) During the two (2) year period immediately following the Closing, each Seller will treat and hold the Confidential Information as confidential in accordance with the terms of this
Section 7.06(a). Nothing in this Section 7.06(a), however, shall prohibit or otherwise limit any Seller (i) from using or disclosing Confidential Information in connection with this Agreement and/or any of the
transactions contemplated hereby, including in connection with enforcing the terms of this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument executed and delivered in connection herewith and/or in connection with defending any claim, action, proceeding
or inquiry against or involving the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, any Seller or any Affiliate of any such Seller, (ii) if such person is then an employee of the Company, any of its Affiliates or Buyer or any of its Affiliates, from using or
disclosing Confidential Information in furtherance of such persons work for any such entities, (iii) from using or disclosing Confidential Information to the extent required by law or regulatory process, (iv) from disclosing any
Confidential Information to any of its Affiliates, direct or indirect equityholders or partners and/or any of their respective lenders, auditors, accountants or other advisors on a confidential basis, (v) from using or disclosing Confidential
Information consisting of the Companys and its Subsidiaries pre-Closing financial performance (and similar information) in connection with any direct or indirect fundraising or marketing efforts by any such Seller or any of such
Sellers Affiliates and/or in connection with any reporting obligations to such Sellers direct or indirect equityholders or partners provided that any recipients of such information are obligated to treat it as confidential and/or
(vi) from disclosing or using any of the information described on Section 7.06(a) of the Disclosure Schedule (whether or not any such information would be considered Confidential Information). In the event that any
Seller is requested or required pursuant to oral or written question or request for information or documents in any legal proceeding, interrogatory, subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar process (in each case which is unrelated to this
Agreement and/or the transactions contemplated hereby) to disclose any Confidential Information, that Seller will notify Buyer promptly of the request or requirement so that Buyer may seek an appropriate protective order or waive compliance with the
provisions of this Section 7.06(a). If, in the absence of a protective order or the receipt of a waiver hereunder, any Seller is, on the advice of counsel, legally compelled to disclose any such Confidential Information described in the
preceding sentence, that Seller may disclose the Confidential Information to the tribunal without liability; provided, however, that the disclosing Seller shall use his, her, or its commercially reasonable efforts to assist Buyer in
seeking to obtain, at the reasonable request of Buyer (and at Buyers cost and expense), an order or other assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such portion of the Confidential Information required to be disclosed as Buyer
shall designate.

business days) after the date hereof, any filings and submissions required of such Person under the HSR Act and any other Anti-Trust Laws in respect of this Agreement and/or the transactions contemplated hereby, and Buyer shall pay all filing and
similar fees payable by any Person in connection therewith. With respect to any filings required under the HSR Act, Buyer and the Company shall seek early termination of the waiting period under the HSR Act. Buyer and the Company shall each use

requirements under the HSR Act or such other applicable antitrust regulation to terminate or expire at the earliest possible date. Buyer and the Company shall promptly inform the other party of any material communication received by such party from
any Governmental Authority in respect of any such submission or filing with any Antitrust Authority. In addition, each of Buyer and the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the other party in exchanging such
information and providing such reasonable assistance as the requesting party may reasonably request in connection with all of the foregoing. Each of Buyer and the Company shall (i) consult with the other prior to any meetings, by telephone or
in person, with the staff of the Federal Trade Commission, the United States Department of Justice or any other Antitrust Authority, (ii) have the right to have a representative present at any such meeting and (iii) not (x) extend any
waiting period under the HSR Act or any other applicable Anti-Trust Law, or (y) enter into any agreement with any Governmental Authority not to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except, in each case, with the prior
consent of the other party. Buyer and Company shall each make or cause to be made, promptly (but in no event beyond the applicable regulatory deadline) after the date hereof, all filings and submissions, if any, set forth on Section 7.07
of the Disclosure Schedule that are required of such Persons to be made prior to the Closing under applicable Environmental Laws. Buyer shall pay all filing and similar fees payable by any person in connection therewith.

7.08 Other Matters.

(a) Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary (and without limiting any of the rights and remedies of any of the Sellers and/or, prior to the Closing, the Company under this Agreement or
otherwise), Buyer acknowledges and agrees (on behalf of itself and the other Buyer Indemnified Parties) that (i) none of the events, changes, actions and/or developments described on Section 7.08 of the Disclosure Schedule
(collectively, such events, changes, actions and developments, the Excluded Events) shall be taken into account in determining whether there has been or will be a Material Adverse Effect and, for the avoidance of doubt, none of
the Excluded Events shall be deemed in themselves, either alone or in combination, to constitute a Material Adverse Effect, (ii) neither the Company nor any of the Sellers shall be deemed to be in breach of any representation, warranty,
covenant and/or agreement hereunder to the extent reasonably attributable to any of the Excluded Events (including for purposes of Section 8.01) and (iii) and no Seller shall have any liability of any nature under Article X

of incorporation (as amended to date) with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby.

(a) by the mutual written consent of the Seller Representative and Buyer;

(b) by
Buyer, if there has been a material breach by the Company or the Sellers of any covenant, representation or warranty contained in this Agreement which has prevented the satisfaction of any condition in Section 8.01 to the obligations of

(c) by the Seller Representative, if there has been a material breach by Buyer of any covenant, representation or warranty contained in

within ten days after Buyers receipt of written notice thereof from the Seller Representative, the Company or any Seller (provided that the failure of Buyer to deliver the consideration pursuant to Section 1.03 at the Closing as

(d) by Buyer if the Closing has not occurred on or before March 31, 2011; provided that Buyer shall not be entitled to

10.01 Survival Period. The representations and warranties, covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement shall survive the Closing for a period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on
the fifteen (15) month anniversary of the Closing Date (the Survival Period) and shall thereafter be of no further force or effect; provided that (i) the applicable Survival Period for the representations and
warranties contained in Section 2.09 (Tax Matters) and the obligations of the Sellers under Section 10.02(b)(iv) shall be the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the 30th day following the expiration of the

Section 10.02(b)(iii) shall be the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the three (3) year anniversary of the Closing Date and (v) with respect to any covenant or agreement contained herein that contemplates
performance or observance, as the case may be, after the fifteen (15) month anniversary of the Closing Date, the Survival Period for such covenant or agreement shall, except as otherwise provided herein in the case of Sections
10.02(b)(iii) and 10.02(b)(iv) (which covenants shall survive for the periods specified in clauses (iv) and (iii) above, respectively), continue through the period of such contemplated performance or observance, as the case may
be; provided further that, for the avoidance of doubt, that the applicable Survival Period for any such covenant or agreement described in clause (v) of the preceding proviso shall end upon the expiration of the period of such
contemplated performance or observance, as the case may be, for such particular covenant or agreement, at which time such covenant or agreement shall expire and be of no further force and effect.

10.02 Indemnification by the Sellers for the Benefit of Buyer.

(a) Subject to the applicable provisions and limitations of this Article X, after the Closing, each Seller, severally as to itself,
herself or himself only and not jointly as to or with any other Seller, shall indemnify Buyer, the Company, the Subsidiaries of the Company (in the case of the Company and its Subsidiaries, after the Closing, if the Closing occurs) and each of their
respective successors and permitted assigns (collectively, the Buyer Indemnified Parties) from and against any actual loss, fine, liability, damage, cost or expense (including reasonable legal fees and expenses, but excluding
consequential, special, exemplary and punitive damages) (collectively, Losses and individually, a Loss) which the Buyer Indemnified Parties actually suffer, sustain or incur arising out of or as a result of:
(i) any breach of any representation or warranty of such Seller contained in Article III of this Agreement; or (ii) any breach of any covenant or agreement of such Seller contained in this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the
representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement that are made specifically and solely by a particular Seller are the obligations of that particular Seller only (subject, in any such case, to the applicable
provisions and limitations of this Article X) and the other Sellers shall not be responsible therefor (including with respect to such Sellers



43



---

Percentage Share of the Escrow Amount). For the avoidance of doubt, the term Buyer Indemnified Parties as used in this Agreement shall not be deemed to include the Company and its
Subsidiaries and any of their respective successors or assigns unless and until the Closing shall have occurred under this Agreement.

(b) Subject to the applicable provisions and limitations of this Article X, after the Closing, each Seller, severally as to itself, herself or himself only and not jointly as to or with any other
Seller, shall indemnify the Buyer Indemnified Parties from and against such Sellers Percentage Share of any Loss which the Buyer Indemnified Parties actually suffer, sustain or incur arising out of or as a result of: (i) any breach of any
representation and warranty of the Company contained in Article II of this Agreement; (ii) any breach of any covenant or agreement of the Company contained in this Agreement to be performed or complied with by the Company prior to the
Closing; (iii) the matters set forth on Section 10.11(a) of the Disclosure Schedule (such matters, the Post-Closing Items); or (iv) the following Taxes: (1) any Taxes of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries for a Pre-Closing Tax Period (or portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date as determined under Section 7.02(a)(iii)(E)); (2) any Taxes that the Company or any of its Subsidiaries are liable for
(including pursuant to Treasury Regulation section 1.1502-6 or an analogous provision of state, local, or foreign Law) as a result of being a member of an affiliated, consolidated, combined, or unitary Tax group before the Closing Date; (3) any
Taxes for a Pre-Closing Tax Period (or portion of a Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date as determined under Section 7.02(a)(iii)(E)) of any Person that the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company are liable for as a transferee or
successor or pursuant to a contract in effect as of prior to the Closing; and (4) the applicable portion of Transfer Taxes (and related interest and penalties) that the Sellers are obligated to pay under Section 7.02(c). For the
avoidance of doubt, each Seller shall be responsible solely and only for paying such Sellers Percentage Share of any such Losses described in this Section 10.02(b) actually suffered by any Buyer Indemnified Party, subject, in any
event, to the applicable provisions and limitations of this Article X, and provided that the foregoing statement that each Seller shall be responsible solely and only for paying such Sellers Percentage Share of any such Losses described
in this Section 10.02(b) shall not limit any Buyer Indemnified Partys ability to recover from the Escrow Account any amounts finally determined hereunder to be owed to such Buyer Indemnified Party pursuant to this
Section 10.02(b) to the extent of the then remaining balance of the Escrow Account.

(c) Any amount finally
determined hereunder to be owed by any of the Sellers to any Buyer Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 10.02(a), Section 10.02(b) (except as otherwise provided with respect to certain Losses under
Section 10.02(b)(iii) as provided in the last sentence hereof) or Section 1.04 shall first be satisfied from any then remaining balance of the Escrow Amount held in escrow in the Escrow Account by the Escrow Agent, and such
amount so finally determined hereunder to be owed shall be released to Buyer (for the benefit of the Buyer Indemnified Parties) from the then remaining balance of the Escrow Amount held by the Escrow Agent in the Escrow Account in accordance with
the terms of the Escrow Agreement and this Agreement; provided that with respect to any amount(s) owed by any particular Seller with respect to any Losses described in Section 10.02(a) or with respect to which any individual
Seller is otherwise solely responsible, Buyers recourse to the Escrow Amount with respect to such amounts shall be limited solely to an amount not to exceed (on a cumulative basis) such Sellers Percentage Share of the Escrow Amount. Any
amount finally determined hereunder to be owed by the Sellers to any Buyer Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 10.02(b)(iii) shall first be satisfied from any then remaining balance of the Post-Closing Items Holdback Amount held in
escrow in the Escrow Account by the Escrow Agent, and such amount so finally determined hereunder to be owed shall be released to Buyer (for the benefit of the Buyer Indemnified Parties) from the then remaining balance of the Post-Closing Items
Holdback Amount held by the Escrow Agent in the Escrow Account in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement and this Agreement, and if the then remaining balance of the Post-Closing Items Holdback Amount is insufficient to satisfy such
amount, such unpaid portion of such amount shall then be satisfied from the then remaining balance (if any) of the Escrow Amount in accordance with the first sentence of this Section 10.02(c).



44



---

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary (but subject to
the other applicable limitations on indemnification recovery set forth in this Article X), the Sellers shall have no liability under Section 10.02(a) and/or Section 10.02(b) above, unless the aggregate of all
Losses relating thereto for which the Sellers would be liable, but for this Section 10.02(d), exceeds on a cumulative basis $900,000 (the Deductible), and then only to the extent such Losses exceed the Deductible, up
to the Cap; provided that the Sellers aggregate liability under this Section 10.02 shall in no event exceed an amount equal to $15,000,000 (the Cap); provided further that no claim for
indemnification by the Buyer Indemnified Parties under this Section 10.02 may be asserted with respect to any individual Loss (or aggregated Losses arising out of the same facts, events or circumstances) where the amount that would
otherwise be payable by the Sellers hereunder relating to such claim with respect to any such individual Loss (or aggregated Losses arising out of the same facts, events or circumstances) is less than $50,000 (the Mini-Basket),
and, for the avoidance of doubt, if such claim does not exceed such amount of the Mini-Basket, the amount of such claim shall not be taken into account in determining whether or not or the extent to which the Deductible has been exceeded or reached;
provided, however, that (1) the Deductible and the Mini-Basket shall not apply to any Losses for which the Buyer Indemnified Parties are entitled to be indemnified under Section 10.02(b)(iii), (2) the first $4.0
million of Losses (on a cumulative basis) for which the Buyer Indemnified Parties are entitled to be indemnified under Section 10.02(b)(iii) shall not be included in the computation of Losses subject to the Cap but any and all Losses in
excess of such first $4.0 million of Losses for which the Buyer Indemnified Parties are entitled to be indemnified under Section 10.02(b)(iii) shall be included in the computation of Losses subject to the Cap and such Losses shall be
taken into account in determining whether or not or the extent to which the Cap has been exceeded or reached (for example, if the Buyer Indemnified Parties are indemnified in the first year following the Closing for $5,000,000 of Losses
under Section 10.02(b)(iii)and $2,000,000 of Losses under Section 10.02(b)(i) (after taking into account certain other Losses which were subject to the Deductible) and for no other Losses through such time, then the
first $4.0 million of such Losses indemnified under Section 10.02(b)(iii) (determined on a cumulative basis) would not count towards the Cap, but the next $1.0 million of Losses thereunder (as well as any other Losses for which the Buyer
Indemnified Parties may thereafter be entitled to indemnification under Section 10.02(b)(iii)) and the $2.0 million of Losses for which the Buyer Indemnified Parties were indemnified under Section 10.02(b)(i) (as well as any
other Losses for which the Buyer Indemnified Parties may thereafter be entitled to indemnification under Section 10.02) would count towards the Cap, with the result that the $3.0 million of such Losses would be applied against the Cap,
reducing the availability thereunder to $12,000,000), (3) the Deductible, the Cap and the Mini-Basket shall not apply to (x) any Losses for which the Buyer Indemnified Parties are entitled to be indemnified under
Section 10.02(a) or Section 10.02(b) resulting from any breach of any representation or warranty or covenant that constitutes an act of fraud, (y) if it is finally determined under Section 1.04 that the Final
Adjustment Amount is owed from the Sellers to Buyer, the payment by the Sellers (either directly or through the Escrow Amount) of the Final Adjustment Amount to Buyer, meaning that any Final Adjustment Amount so owed shall be paid in full, and any
such payment shall not reduce the Cap, or (z) with respect to any particular Seller, any Losses for which the Buyer Indemnified Parties are entitled to be indemnified under Section 10.02(a) by such Seller as a result of a breach by
such Seller of any of such Sellers representations and warranties contained in Section 3.01 (Organization of Certain Sellers), Section 3.02 (Authority; Execution and Delivery; Valid and Binding Agreement) or
Section 3.07 (Ownership of Shares) and (4) the Deductible and the Mini-Basket shall not apply to Losses for which the Buyer Indemnified Parties are entitled to be indemnified under Section 10.02(b)(iv). Notwithstanding

the extent expressly provided in the last proviso in the immediately preceding sentence (including with respect to the first $4.0 million of Losses (on a cumulative basis) for which the Buyer
Indemnified Parties are entitled to be indemnified under Section 10.02(b)(iii) not counting towards the Cap), but in any event subject to clause (B) hereof) exceed in the aggregate such Sellers Percentage Share of the Cap, and
(B) in no event shall the aggregate liability of any Seller for all Losses claimed by the Buyer Indemnified Parties against such Seller under this Agreement and/or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby for any reason exceed in
the aggregate the proceeds received by such Seller from Buyer pursuant to this Agreement in exchange for such Sellers Shares. For the avoidance of doubt, amounts paid out of the Escrow Amount on behalf of a Seller (as determined by the Seller
Representative) shall, for all purposes hereof, be deemed to have been paid by such Seller.

(e) Notwithstanding any other
provision in this Agreement to the contrary, none of the Sellers shall be liable to, or have any obligation to indemnify, the Buyer Indemnified Parties for any Losses (i) to the extent that an accrual for or reserve against any such Losses was
or is included in the Financial Statements and/or Closing Statement (as finally determined pursuant to Section 1.04), and/or (ii) to the extent that such Losses result from or are increased by a failure of any Buyer Indemnified
Party to mitigate damages in accordance with Section 10.03 below. Subject to the proviso at the end of this sentence, Buyer acknowledges and agrees (on behalf of itself and the other Buyer Indemnified Parties) that the indemnification
provided by Section 10.02(a) and Section 10.02(b) constitutes the Buyer Indemnified Parties sole and exclusive remedy for any and all Losses or other claims relating to or arising from this Agreement or in connection
with the transactions contemplated hereby or any exhibit, schedule (including the Disclosure Schedule) or certificate delivered hereunder or otherwise with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby; provided that this sentence shall not

Section 9.02.

10.03 Mitigation; Related Matters.

(a) The Buyer Indemnified Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate all losses, costs, damages and expenses upon and
after becoming aware of any event which could reasonably be expected to give rise to losses, costs, damages and expenses that are or may be indemnifiable under this Article X; provided, however, that this paragraph
(a) shall not apply to Losses for which the Buyer Indemnified Parties are entitled to be indemnified under Section 10.02(b)(iv).

(b) The Buyer Indemnified Parties shall not be entitled to recover any Losses under Section 10.02 relating to any matter (i) arising under one provision of this Agreement to the extent
that the Buyer Indemnified Parties had already recovered Losses with respect to such matter pursuant to any other provisions of this Agreement or (ii) to the extent such matter has been included in the calculation of (or otherwise taken into
account in determining) the Common Purchase Price or the Final Common Purchase Price (including, without limitation, by virtue of being included in the calculation of the Cash Amount, the Net Working Capital Amount and the Indebtedness Payoff Amount

10.04 Indemnification by Buyer for the Benefit of Sellers.

(a) Subject to the applicable provisions of this Article X, after the Closing, Buyer shall indemnify the Seller Representative,
each of the Sellers and each of their respective officers, directors, partners, members, employees, agents, representatives, successors and permitted assigns (collectively, the Seller Indemnified Parties) against any Losses which
any of the Seller Indemnified Parties actually suffer, sustain or incur arising out of or as a result of: (i) any breach of any representation or warranty of Buyer contained in this Agreement and/or (ii) any breach of any covenant or
agreement set forth in this Agreement to be performed by Buyer and/or, from and after the Closing, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary (but subject to the other applicable limitations on indemnification recovery set forth in this Article X), Buyer shall have
no liability under Section 10.04(a)(i) above, unless the aggregate of all Losses relating thereto for which Buyer would be liable, but for this Section 10.04(b), exceeds on a cumulative basis $900,000 (the Buyer
Deductible), and then only to the extent such Losses exceed the Buyer Deductible, up to the Buyer Cap; provided that Buyers aggregate liability under Section 10.04(a)(i) shall in no event exceed an amount equal to
$15,000,000 (the Buyer Cap); and provided further that no claim for indemnification by the Seller Indemnified Parties under Section 10.04(a)(i) may be asserted with respect to any individual Loss (or
aggregated Losses arising out of the same or similar facts, events or circumstances) where the amount that would otherwise be payable by Buyer hereunder relating to such claim with respect to any such individual Loss (or aggregated Losses arising
out of the same or similar facts, events or circumstances) is less than $50,000 (the Buyer Mini-Basket); provided, however, that the limitations set forth in this Section 10.04(b), including the Buyer
Deductible, the Buyer Cap and the Buyer Mini-Basket, shall not apply to any Losses based upon, arising out of or as a result of (i) any breach of or inaccuracy in any of the representations and warranties contained in Section 4.01
(Organization and Authority), Section 4.02 (Authorization; Valid and Binding Agreement) and Section 4.05 (Brokerage), (ii) any act of fraud or willful misrepresentation or (iii) any breach or non-fulfillment of a
covenant or agreement.

10.05 Manner of Payment. Unless required to be made earlier by any provision of this Agreement,
any indemnification payment pursuant to this Article X shall be effected by wire transfer of immediately available funds from (or on behalf of) the applicable indemnifying party to an account designated by each applicable indemnified party
within 21 days after the determination thereof.

10.06 Defense of Third Party Claims. Promptly after the assertion by
any third party of any claim (a Third Party Claim) against any Person entitled to seek indemnification under Section 10.02 or Section 10.04 (an Indemnitee) that results or may result in
the incurrence by such Indemnitee of any Loss for which such Indemnitee desires to seek indemnification under this Article X, such Indemnitee shall notify each of the parties from whom such indemnification could be sought hereunder with
respect to such claim (collectively, the Indemnitor) of such claim in writing promptly after receiving notice of such claim, describing the claim, the amount thereof (if known and quantifiable) and the basis thereof in reasonable
detail (such written notice, an Indemnification Notice); provided that the failure to so notify an Indemnitor shall not relieve the Indemnitor of its obligations hereunder except to the extent that such failure shall have
caused the damages for which the Indemnitor is obligated to be greater than such damages would have been had the Indemnitee given the Indemnitor prompt notice hereunder. Any Indemnitor shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such action,
lawsuit, proceeding, investigation or other claim giving rise to an Indemnitees claim for indemnification at such Indemnitors expense, and at its option shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof by appointing a reputable counsel
reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee to be the lead counsel in connection with such defense; provided that the Indemnitee shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such claim and to employ counsel of its choice for such purpose;
provided however, that the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be borne by the Indemnitee and shall not be recoverable from such Indemnitor(s) under this Article X. With respect to any Third Party Claim with respect to which
indemnification is sought against any of the Sellers hereunder, the Seller Representative may, at its option, on behalf of such Sellers, assume the defense of such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnitor shall control the defense of any such claim, the
Indemnitor



47



---

shall be entitled to settle such claims; provided that the Indemnitor shall obtain the prior written consent of the Indemnitee (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) before
entering into any settlement of a claim or ceasing to defend such claim if, pursuant to or as a result of such settlement, material injunctive or other equitable relief will be imposed against the Indemnitee or if such settlement does not expressly
and unconditionally release the Indemnitee from all liabilities and obligations with respect to such claim. In all cases, the Indemnitee shall provide, and the Indemnitee shall cause its Affiliates to provide, their reasonable cooperation with the
Indemnitor in defense of claims or litigation, including by making employees, information and documentation reasonably available. In no event will an Indemnitee consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to any
Third Party Claim without the written consent of the Indemnitor (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) if any Indemnitee is seeking or will seek indemnification hereunder with respect to such matter; it being understood and agreed, for
the avoidance of doubt, that any such consent of the Indemnitor to any such consent to the entry of judgment or settlement shall not be deemed to be an admission or acknowledgement that any Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification hereunder with
respect to any such Third Party Claim. The provisions of Section 7.02(d) shall govern with respect to the contest of any Tax Claim, and this Section 10.06 shall have no application to any Tax Claim.

10.07 Determination of Loss Amount. The amount of any Loss subject to indemnification under Section 10.02(a) or
Section 10.02(b) shall be calculated net of (i) any Tax Benefit realized by Buyer, the Company, any of their respective Subsidiaries and/or any of their respective Affiliates on account of such Loss, and (ii) any insurance
proceeds or other third party indemnification or reimbursement proceeds received by any of them on account of such Loss. If Buyer, the Company, any of their respective Subsidiaries and/or any of their respective Affiliates realizes a Tax Benefit and
such Tax Benefit was not included in the computation of the Loss, Buyer shall within ten (10) days of filing the Tax Return claiming the Tax Benefit (or, if the Tax Benefit is in the form of a refund, within ten (10) days or receiving the
refund from the Governmental Authority) pay to the Seller Representative (for distribution to the applicable Sellers) the amount of such Tax Benefit. Buyer shall, and shall cause the Company, their respective Subsidiaries and their respective
Affiliates to, seek full recovery under all insurance policies and other third party agreements covering any Loss to the same extent as they would if such Loss were not subject to indemnification hereunder. In the event that an insurance recovery or
a recovery under any other third party agreement or arrangement is made by Buyer, the Company, any of their respective Subsidiaries and/or any of their respective Affiliates with respect to any Loss for which any Buyer Indemnified Party has been
indemnified hereunder, then a refund equal to the aggregate amount of the recovery (net of any costs of obtaining such recovery) shall be made promptly by Buyer to the Seller Representative (on behalf of the Person or Persons that provided such
indemnity payments hereunder to the Buyer Indemnified Parties). The Sellers shall be subrogated to all rights of Buyer, the Company and its Subsidiaries in respect of any Losses indemnified by the Sellers.

10.08 Expiration of Indemnification. No Person shall be liable for any claim for indemnification under
Section 10.02(a), Section 10.02(b), or Section 10.04 unless written notice (stating in reasonable detail the nature of, and factual and legal basis for, any such claim for indemnification, and the provisions of
this Agreement upon which such claim for indemnification is made) is delivered by the Person seeking indemnification to the Person from whom indemnification is sought prior to the expiration of the applicable Survival Period (which written notice
must be accompanied by, in the case such claim for indemnification is being made by reason of a Third Party Claim, a copy of the written notice of the third party claimant), in which case the representation, warranty, covenant or agreement which is
the subject of such claim for indemnification shall survive, to the extent of such claim only, until such claim is resolved, whether or not the amount of the Losses resulting from such breach has been finally ascertained or finally determined at the
time the notice is given.

10.09 Limitation on Recourse.

No claim shall be brought or maintained by any Buyer Indemnified Party, any of their Subsidiaries or any of their respective successors or
permitted assigns against any present or former officer, partner, director, employee or Affiliate of any party hereto which is not otherwise expressly identified as a party hereto, and no recourse shall be brought or granted against any of them, by
virtue of or based upon any alleged misrepresentation or inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations, warranties, agreements or covenants of any party hereto set forth or contained in this Agreement or any exhibit or schedule hereto
(including the Disclosure Schedule) or any certificate delivered hereunder. After the consummation of the Closing, no party may seek the rescission of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

10.10 Tax Matters.

In addition to the other limitations under this Article X applicable to the Sellers obligation to pay or indemnify for Taxes, no Seller shall be required under any applicable provision of this
Agreement to pay or indemnify any Buyer Indemnified Party for the following: (1) any Tax (or related Loss) to the extent such Tax relates to a Post-Closing Tax Period (or portion of a Straddle Period beginning on the day after the Closing Date
as determined under Section 7.02(a)(iii)(E)); (2) any Tax (or related Loss) to the extent such Tax is accrued as a current liability (or offset to a current asset) in the Net Working Capital; (3) Buyers allocable share of
any Transfer Tax (and related interest and penalties) as determined pursuant to Section 7.02(c); and (4) any Tax (or related Loss) to the extent such Tax resulted from any breach by Buyer of any covenant or other agreement in
Section 7.02.

10.11 Certain Post-Closing Items.

From and after the Closing, Buyer and Sellers acknowledge and agree, for the avoidance of doubt, that (subject to the applicable
limitations and provisions set forth in this Article X) Section 10.11(b) of the Disclosure Schedule (and the provisions and procedures contained therein) shall apply with respect to the administration, handling and resolution of
the Post-Closing Items as if fully set forth in this Article X. Without limiting the foregoing, Buyer agrees to cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to comply with the applicable provisions of Section 10.11(b) of the Disclosure
Schedule.

11.01 Designation; Authorization. Each of
the Sellers, by the execution of this Agreement, hereby irrevocably appoints the Seller Representative as the agent, proxy and attorney in fact for such Seller for all purposes of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement (including the full power and

and exercise any and all other rights which such Seller is, or the Sellers collectively are, permitted or required to do or exercise under this Agreement (it being understood and agreed that the consent of the Required Sellers is not required with
respect to any of the actions described in the foregoing clauses (i) through (ix)). Each of the Sellers 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. All decisions and actions by the Seller Representative shall be binding upon all of the Sellers, and no Seller shall have the right to object, dissent,
protest or otherwise contest the same; provided, however, that the Seller Representative shall not take any such action where any single Seller would be held liable for a Loss under Section 10.02(a) (without such
Sellers written consent). At the Closing, Buyer shall deliver the Seller Representative Reserve Amount to the Seller Representative in accordance with Section 1.03(b)(v) hereof, which amount, the Sellers authorize and agree, may be
used by the Seller Representative to (i) cover, reimburse and pay fees and expenses incurred by the Seller Representative in its capacity as the Seller Representative in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby
and/or (ii) serve as an initial source of funds to satisfy certain obligations of the Sellers under this Agreement (to the extent amounts are available in the Seller Representative Reserve Amount to pay any such obligations and the Seller
Representative has determined to have such obligations paid out of the Seller Representative Reserve Amount rather than by the Sellers directly); it being understood and agreed that the aforementioned Seller Representative Reserve Amount shall in no
way limit any of the obligations of the Sellers under this Agreement (including the obligations of the Sellers to the Seller Representative under this Article XI hereof). At such time as the Seller Representative determines that the Seller
Representative Reserve Amount is no longer necessary but in no event later than the one year anniversary of the Closing Date (and without limiting any of the obligations of the Sellers under this Agreement (including the obligations of the Sellers
to the Seller Representative under this Article XI hereof)), any then remaining balance of the Seller Representative Reserve Amount shall be distributed by the Representative to the Sellers based on their respective Percentage Shares.

11.02 Authority; Indemnification. Each Seller agrees that Buyer shall be entitled to rely on any action taken by the
Seller Representative, on behalf of such Seller, pursuant to Section 11.01 above (an Authorized Action), and that each Authorized Action shall be binding on each Seller as fully as if such Seller had taken such
Authorized Action. Buyer agrees that the Seller Representative, as the Seller Representative, shall have no liability to Buyer for any Authorized Action. Each Seller hereby severally (based on such Sellers Percentage Share), for itself only
and not jointly and severally, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Seller Representative against (x) any and all losses, expenses (including reasonable attorneys fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement incurred by the
Seller Representative by reason of the fact such Person is or was acting as the Seller Representative pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and/or the Escrow Agreement (including in connection with any action, suit or proceeding against or
involving the Seller Representative in its capacity as such) and (y) any and all fees, costs and expenses incurred by the Seller Representative in connection with the performance of its duties hereunder or thereunder. For the avoidance of
doubt, (a) each of the Sellers acknowledge and agree that none of the limitations on indemnification recovery set forth in Article X shall apply to, affect or otherwise limit any of the obligations of the Sellers to the Seller
Representative under this Article XI and (b) in no event shall the aggregate liability of any Seller for indemnification under this Section 11.02 exceed the gross proceeds received by such Seller pursuant to this Agreement.

11.03 Exculpation. The Seller Representative shall not have by reason of this Agreement a fiduciary relationship in
respect of any Seller, except in respect of amounts received on behalf of such Seller. The Seller Representative shall not be liable to any Seller for any action taken or omitted by the Seller Representative or any agent employed by the Seller
Representative hereunder or under any other document entered into in connection herewith, except that the Seller Representative shall not be relieved



50



---

of any liability imposed by law for fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence. The Seller Representative shall not be liable to the Sellers for any apportionment or distribution of payments
made by the Seller Representative in good faith, and if any such apportionment or distribution is subsequently determined to have been made in error the sole recourse of any Seller to whom payment was due, but not made, shall be to recover from
other Sellers any payment in excess of the amount to which they are determined to have been entitled. The Seller Representative shall not be required to make any inquiry concerning either the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions
or conditions of this Agreement.

Persons and Persons to whom such Company Transaction Expenses are owed (including, without limitation, Section 1.03, Section 6.02, Section 6.05, Section 7.01, Section 10.09, and this
Section 13.05), each of which is intended to be for the benefit of the Persons covered thereby or to be paid thereunder and may be enforced by such Persons.

13.06 Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement
is held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this
Agreement.

13.07 References. The table of contents and the section and other headings and subheadings contained in
this Agreement are solely for the purpose of reference, are not part of the agreement of the parties hereto, and shall not in any way affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. All references to days or months shall be deemed references

Agreement shall be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties hereto to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction shall be applied against any Person.

13.09 Amendment and Waiver. Except as otherwise provided herein, any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived only in

13.12 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST
EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT. EACH OF
THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF THE OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND
(B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 13.12.

13.13 Disclosure Schedule. The disclosures in the Disclosure Schedule concerning the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries are to
be taken as relating to the representations and warranties of the Company and its Subsidiaries as a whole, notwithstanding the fact that the Disclosure Schedule is arranged by sections corresponding to the sections in this Agreement or that a
particular section of this Agreement makes reference to a specific section of the Disclosure Schedule and notwithstanding that a particular representation and warranty may not make a reference to the Disclosure Schedule; provided that the relevance
of any disclosure to any section not so specified is reasonably apparent. The inclusion of information in the Disclosure Schedule shall not be construed as or constitute an admission or agreement that a violation, right of termination, default,
liability or other obligation of any kind exists with respect to any item, nor shall it be construed as or constitute an admission or agreement that such information is material to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries and/or any Seller. In addition,
matters reflected in the Disclosure Schedule are not necessarily limited to matters required by this Agreement to be reflected in the Disclosure Schedule. Such additional matters are set forth for informational purposes and do not necessarily
include other matters of a similar nature. Neither the specifications of any dollar amount in any representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement nor the inclusion of any specific item in the Disclosure Schedule is intended to imply
that such amount, or higher or lower amounts, or the item so included or other items, are or are not material, and no party shall use the fact of the setting forth of any such amount or the inclusion of any such item in any dispute or controversy
between the parties as to whether any obligation, item or matter not described herein or included in the Disclosure Schedule is or is not material for purposes of this Agreement or otherwise. Further, neither the specification of any item or matter
in any representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement nor the inclusion of any specific item in the Disclosure Schedule is intended to imply that such item or matter, or other items or matters, are or are not in the ordinary course
of business, and no party shall use the fact of setting forth or the inclusion of any such items or matter in any dispute or controversy involving any of the parties hereto as to whether any obligation, item or matter not described herein or
included in the Disclosure Schedule is or is not in the ordinary course of business for purposes of this Agreement. Prior to the Closing, each of the Seller Representative and the Company shall have the right from time to time to supplement, modify
and/or update the Disclosure Schedule to ensure the correctness thereof and/or to disclose to Buyer any exceptions to or variances from the representations and warranties in Articles II and/or III. Any such supplements, modifications
and updates shall not affect the obligations of Buyer under Section 8.01(a) hereof to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby; provided that, with respect to any such supplement, modification or update that reflects facts,
circumstances or events occurring or arising after the date hereof, (x) the delivery of any such supplement, modification or update will be deemed to have cured any misrepresentation or breach of representation or warranty that otherwise might
have existed hereunder by reason of such exception or variance or incorrectness and (y) neither the Company nor any of the Sellers shall be deemed to be in breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement hereunder with respect to
the information disclosed in any such supplement, modification or update. References to the Disclosure Schedule shall be references to the Disclosure Schedule as so supplemented, modified and/or updated.

13.14 Specific Performance. Sellers agree that Buyer shall have the right, in
addition to any other rights and remedies existing in its favor, to enforce its rights and the obligations of Sellers hereunder not only by an action or actions for damages but also by an action or actions for specific performance, injunctive and/or
other equitable relief. Furthermore, Buyer agrees that the Sellers shall have the right, in addition to any other rights and remedies existing in their favor, to enforce their rights and the obligations of Buyer hereunder not only by an action or
actions for damages but also by an action or actions for specific performance, injunctive and/or other equitable relief.

13.15 Governing Law; Jurisdiction.

(a) All matters relating to the interpretation, construction, validity and enforcement of this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the domestic laws of the State of Illinois
without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Illinois or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Illinois.

(b) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, any suit, action or proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or
based on any matter arising out of or in connection with, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be brought in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois or any Illinois State court sitting in
Chicago, Illinois, and each of the parties hereby consents to the jurisdiction of such courts (and of the appropriate appellate courts therefrom) in any such suit, action or proceeding and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law,
any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding in any such court or that any such suit, action or proceeding which is brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient
form. Process in any such suit, action or proceeding may be served on any party anywhere in the world, whether within or without the jurisdiction of any such court. Without limiting the foregoing, each party agrees that service of process on such
party as provided in Section 13.04 shall be deemed effective service of process on such party.

13.16
Understanding Among Sellers. The determination of each Seller to sell Shares pursuant to this Agreement has been made by such Seller independent of any other Seller and the Seller Representative and independent of any statements or opinions
as to the advisability of such sale or as to the properties, business, prospects or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Company and its Subsidiaries which may have been made or given by any other Seller, the Seller Representative or by any
agent or employee of any other Seller or the Seller Representative.

13.17 Legal Representation; Related Matters. It is
acknowledged by each of the parties hereto that the Company, each Tricor Seller and the Seller Representative have retained Winston & Strawn, LLP (W&S) and Nijman Franzetti LLP (NF) to act as their
counsel in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and that neither W&S nor NF has acted as counsel for any other party in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and that none of the other parties has the status of a
client of W&S or NF for conflict of interest or any other purposes as a result thereof. Buyer hereby agrees that, in the event that a dispute arises after the Closing between Buyer, on the one hand, and any Tricor Seller and/or the Seller
Representative, on the other hand, W&S or NF may represent the Tricor Sellers and the Seller Representative in such dispute even though the interests of a Tricor Seller or Seller Representative may be directly adverse to Buyer, the Company or
any of the Companys Subsidiaries, and even though W&S or NF may have represented the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in a matter substantially related to such dispute, or may be handling ongoing matters for Buyer, the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries.

Buyer further agrees that, as to all communications among W&S or NF and the Company, the Subsidiaries, any Tricor Seller and/or the Seller Representative that relate in any way to the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the attorney-client privilege and the expectation of client confidence belongs to the Seller Representative and may be controlled by the Seller Representative and shall not pass to or be claimed by Buyer,
the Company or any of the Companys Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding the foregoing, following the Closing (if the Closing occurs), except in connection with a dispute involving a party to this Agreement after the Closing, the Company and the
Subsidiaries may assert the attorney-client privilege (with the consent of the Seller Representative (not to be unreasonably withheld)) to prevent disclosure to a third party of confidential communications between W&S or NF and the Company;
provided, however, that neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries may waive such privilege without the prior written consent of the Seller Representative.

13.18 Prevailing Party. If any litigation or other court action, arbitration or similar adjudicatory proceeding is commenced by any party hereto to enforce its rights under this Agreement against
any other party hereto, all out-of-pocket fees, costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees and court costs, incurred by the prevailing party in prosecuting or defending (as applicable) such litigation, action,
arbitration or proceeding shall be reimbursed by the losing party; provided, that if a party to such litigation, action, arbitration or proceeding prevails in part, and loses in part, the court, arbitrator or other adjudicator presiding over
such litigation, action, arbitration or proceeding shall award a reimbursement of the fees, costs and expenses incurred by such party on an equitable basis.
