Pre-Need Trust Funds and the Endowment Care Funds, the amount of such Taxes shall be computed as if the tax year of such funds ended on the Effective Time with regard to the Managed Businesses and SVMP and the date of the Final Trust Delivery (as

allocation of such billings.

Time. All determinations necessary to give effect to the foregoing allocations shall be made in a manner consistent with prior practice (to the extent permitted by applicable Law) of the NFPs.

applicable, of those employees of the Business to whom Buyer expects to make an offer of employment. Buyer shall not assume or otherwise be responsible for any obligation or liability of employee benefit plans, policies or practices of the Seller or

coverage, and (ii) any employee of the Seller or any of the NFPs, and any qualified beneficiary with respect to such employee.

partners and other Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, enter into, solicit, initiate, conduct or continue any discussions or negotiations with, or encourage or respond to any inquiries or proposals by, or participate in any negotiations with,
or provide any information to, or otherwise cooperate in any other way with, any Person other than Buyer and its representatives concerning any sale of all or any portion of the assets of the Business of, or of any shares of capital stock or other
units of equity interests in Seller, or any merger, consolidation, recapitalization, liquidation, dissolution or similar transaction involving either Seller or the NFPs that encompasses any portion of the Business, the Managed Assets or the Acquired
Assets (each such transaction being referred to herein as a “Proposed Acquisition Transaction”). Seller hereby represents and warrants that it is not now engaged in discussions or negotiations with any party other than Buyer
with respect to any Proposed Acquisition Transaction. Seller shall not cause its representatives (including, without limitation, investment bankers, attorneys and accountants), employees, directors, members, partners and other Affiliates not to,

 Page 44 of 96 







 (b) Notification. Seller shall (i) immediately notify Buyer if any written offer, inquiry or
proposal is made or given to Seller or the NFPs (or any of their Affiliates) with respect to any Proposed Acquisition Transaction, and (ii) promptly provide Buyer with a copy of any such offer, proposal or inquiry; provided, however, that no
such notice hereunder shall relieve Seller of its respective obligations under Section 5.14(a). 
 Section 5.15
Confidentiality. The parties acknowledge that the transactions described herein are of a confidential nature and shall not be disclosed except to consultants, advisors, lenders or other financial sources and Affiliates, or as
required by Law, until such time as the parties make a public announcement regarding the transaction as provided hereunder. In connection with the negotiation of this Agreement, the preparation for the consummation of the transactions contemplated
hereby, and the performance of obligations hereunder, each party acknowledges that it has had, and will continue to have, access to confidential information relating to the other party. Each party shall treat such information as confidential,
preserve the confidentiality thereof and not disclose such information, except to its advisors, consultants and other representatives and to Affiliates, or as required by Law, in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, Buyer may disclose this Agreement and the information and data in Buyer’s possession in connection herewith to its lenders, but shall advise them of the requirement to maintain the confidentiality of such information and data.
This Section 5.15 shall not apply to any information that is (a) in the public domain through no fault on the part of the receiving party hereto or any of their Affiliates or the employees, agents or representatives of such party or any of
its Affiliates, or (b) learned or discovered through any independent source that is not obligated to maintain such information as confidential. Because of the difficulty of measuring economic loss as a result of a breach of the foregoing
covenants in this Section 5.15, and because of the immediate and irreparable damage that would be caused for which there may be no other adequate remedy at law, the parties hereto agree that, in the event of a breach by any of them of the
foregoing covenants in this Section 5.15, such covenants may be enforced against them by injunction or restraining order.

Business, the Managed Assets and the Acquired Assets, including, without limitation, disclosures required under Items 2.01 and 9.01 of Form 8-K adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including all requirements for pro

inclusion or incorporation by reference of the Audit Report in any such registration statement, report or other document, and (iii) execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered to the Independent Auditor such representation
letters, in form and substance customary of representation letters provided to external audit firms by management of the company whose financial statements are the subject of an audit, as may be reasonably requested by the Independent Auditor, with
respect to the Audit Report.

commercially reasonable steps as may be required to satisfy the intent of the parties with respect to the segregation of the Graceland Tract. As appropriate, Seller shall pursue subdivision approval and other regulatory approval for the segregation
of the Graceland Tract. Buyer shall cooperate with Seller in its pursuit of such approvals; provided, however, Buyer shall not be required to incur any out-of-pocket expenses in connection with such efforts. The parties shall cooperate in the
payment of real estate taxes upon the Graceland Tract such that they are prorated based on the percentage of land to be owned by each party. Seller agrees that the Graceland Tract shall not be used as a cemetery, as part of the operation of a
funeral home or a crematory or for any other purpose or use that is related to the death care business or that is inconsistent with the operation of Graceland East Memorial Park as a cemetery. Following expiration of the Donelson Lease (as defined
below), Seller agrees to a similar restriction upon the use of the premises comprising the Donelson Lease. Seller agrees that Buyer and Seller shall enter into and record concurrently an agreement, which shall be a covenant running with the land,
memorializing such restrictions on the use of the Graceland Tract and the premises comprising the Donelson Lease. 
 (b) Huson
Funeral Home. Lessor for the premises at 6000 Camp Robinson Road, North Little Rock, Pulaski County, Arkansas has requested certain repairs to the leasehold. Seller has agreed to make such repairs, to arrange for the completion of such

 (f) Crematories. For the three (3) years immediately following Closing, Seller agrees that while owned or managed by Seller, locations currently utilizing the crematories at the Owned or Managed Locations will
continue to do so subject to customer preference and provided that Buyer’s pricing at each location is within five percent (5%) of the average price for crematories operating within a 10 mile radius thereof and Buyer’s practices are
consistent with current practices of the Seller. Buyer further agrees that during the term of this covenant its pricing shall not increase more than five percent (5%). 
 Section 5.18 Further Assurances. From time to time after the Closing, at the request of Buyer, and without further consideration but at no cost to Seller, Seller will execute and deliver such
additional documents and will take such other actions as Buyer reasonably may request to more fully and absolutely convey, assign, transfer, deliver and vest in Buyer title to the Acquired Assets and the Owned Business and all of Seller’s
rights under the Management Agreements with respect to the Managed Assets and Managed Businesses and to otherwise carry out the terms of this Agreement. 
 Section 5.19 Notice of Breaches. Seller shall give prompt notice to Buyer in writing of (a) the occurrence, or failure to occur, of any event, which occurrence or failure causes or would
reasonably be expected to cause any representation or warranty of Seller contained in this Agreement or in any Exhibit 

  

 Page 48 of 96 







 
or Schedule hereto to be untrue or inaccurate, (b) any Material Adverse Effect, and (c) any failure of Seller or any of its respective Affiliates,
shareholders or representatives to comply with, perform or satisfy any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with, performed by or satisfied by them under this Agreement or any Exhibit or Schedule hereto; and if after receiving such
disclosure Buyer has elected to proceed with the Closing, such disclosure shall be deemed to cure, and shall relieve Seller of any Liability with respect to any breach of, or failure to satisfy, any representation, warranty, covenant, condition or
agreement hereunder to the extent such breach or failure was fully and accurately described in such disclosure. 
 Section 5.20
HSR Act. The Seller and the Buyer have filed with the United States Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”) and the United States Department of Justice (the “DOJ”) the notification
and report form required by the Hart Scott Rodino Antitrust Improvement Act of 1976 (the “HSR Act”). The Seller and the Buyer shall keep each other apprised of the status of any communications with, and any inquiries or
requests for additional information from, the FTC or the DOJ and shall comply promptly with any such inquiry or request and shall promptly provide any supplemental information requested in connection with the filings made hereunder pursuant to the
HSR Act. Any such supplemental information shall be in substantial compliance with the requirements of the HSR Act. Each party shall use it reasonable best efforts to obtain any clearance required under the HSR Act for the consummation of the
transaction contemplated by this Agreement. For purposes of this Section 5.20, the “reasonable best efforts” of any party shall not require that party to pay any amount to or incur any obligation in favor of any Person other than for
filing fees payable under the HSR Act or agree to any prohibition, limitation or other similar requirement. The Buyer shall be responsible for the filing fees under the HSR Act (“HSR Filing Fees”). 
  

 Page 49 of 96 







 Section 5.21 Dignity Memorial Benefits. Seller shall make available to Buyer
the Dignity Memorial benefits listed on Exhibit F, for the prices listed on Exhibit F, after the Closing, solely to allow Buyer to service Pre-/At-Need Contracts that may include Dignity Memorial products. The prices for the items

 Section 5.22 Wrongful Burial Resolutions. Buyer and Seller recognize that during the term of Seller’s
ownership, Seller has discovered material issues/problems at certain of the cemeteries included in the Business (Carolina Biblical Gardens of Guilford, in Jamestown, North Carolina; Martin Memorial Gardens in Everetts, North Carolina; York Memorial
Park, in Charlotte, North Carolina; and Memorial Park Sedalia, in Sedalia, Missouri) resulting from burials that were misplaced, improperly recorded or that could not otherwise be properly accounted for (“Burial Issues”). Seller
believes that the Burial Issues at Martin Memorial Gardens and Memorial Park Sedalia identified to date have been properly remedied and that the Burial Issues at Carolina Biblical Gardens and York Memorial Park identified to date are still in the
process of remediation. With respect to presently known or hereafter (including after the Effective Time) discovered Burial Issues at any of the above-named cemeteries, Buyer agrees to use reasonable efforts consistent with current cemetery
standards and practices, including utilization of Buyer employees, equipment, merchandise and other available lands within the affected cemetery(ies), to resolve promptly such Burial Issues including continuation of remediation efforts initiated by
Seller and to mitigate the third party claims by customers of the cemeteries and their families (the “Buyer Burial Resolutions”). However, to the extent that Buyer in carrying out Buyer Burial Resolutions incurs expense as a
result of payments to third parties including expenditures related to the defense and settlement of claims asserted by third parties (herein, the “Seller Burial Resolutions”), Seller shall retain 

  

 Page 50 of 96 







 
responsibility therefor and fully indemnify Buyer therefrom in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; provided, however, such indemnification shall not
relieve Buyer of its responsibilities with regard to Buyer Burial Resolutions, and Seller may assert Buyer’s failure to discharge Buyer Burial Resolutions as a defense to Buyer’s right of indemnification.

(“Claim”) after the 

  

 Page 60 of 96 







 
Closing Date for which an Indemnitor may be liable under the terms of Article VIII, then the Indemnitee shall notify the Indemnitor within thirty
(30) days after such Claim is known to the Indemnitee (provided, however, that failure to provide such notice will not affect the Indemnitee’s rights to indemnity hereunder from Indemnitor, unless the Indemnitee can show actual material
prejudice resulting from such failure and then only to the extent of such actual material prejudice) and shall give the Indemnitor a reasonable opportunity: (i) to take part in any examination of any books and records; (ii) to conduct any
proceedings or negotiations in connection therewith and necessary or appropriate to defend the Indemnitee; (iii) to take all other required steps or proceedings to settle or defend any such Claim; and (iv) to employ counsel to contest any
such Claim in the name of the Indemnitee or otherwise (except as set forth below in Section 8.5(b)). 
 (b) If the Indemnitor intends to
assume the defense of such Claim, it shall give written notice of such intention to the Indemnitee within 15 days after Indemnitor first receives written notice of such Claim, whereupon Indemnitee shall permit, and Indemnitor shall assume, the
defense of any such Claim, through counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnitee may participate in such defense of such Claim (with one or more counsel of its own choice) at its own expense,
provided, however, that if the parties to any such Claim (including any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee, and the Indemnitor shall have been advised in writing by counsel for the Indemnitee that there may be one or
more defenses available to the Indemnitee that are not available to the Indemnitor or legal conflicts of interest pursuant to applicable rules of professional conduct between the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee, the Indemnitor shall not have the right
to assume the defense of such Claim on behalf of the Indemnitee and the fees and expenses of one such separate counsel employed by the Indemnitee shall be at the expense of the Indemnitor. 
  

 Page 61 of 96 







 (c) If the Indemnitor fails to assume the defense of any Claim within 15 days after Indemnitor first
receives written notice of such Claim, the Indemnitee may defend against such Claim in such manner as it may deem appropriate (provided that the Indemnitor may participate in such defense at its own expense) and a recovery against the Indemnitee in
such Claim for damages suffered by it in good faith, shall be conclusive in its favor against the Indemnitor. 
 (d) The Indemnitor shall
not, without the written consent of the Indemnitee, settle or compromise any Claim or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect thereto which does not include, as an unconditional term thereof, the giving to the Indemnitee a release by all
other participants from all liability in respect of such Claim. Unless the Indemnitor shall have elected not to assume the defense of any claim subject to Article VIII or, after reasonable written notice of any Claim that is subject to the
indemnification provisions of this Article VIII shall have failed to assume or participate in the defense thereof, the Indemnitee may not settle or compromise such Claim without the written consent of the Indemnitor, such consent not to be
unreasonably withheld. 
 (e) Upon determination of the amount due to an Indemnitee (“Indemnification Amount”) in
connection with any matter for which indemnification is sought under this Article VIII (“Indemnification Matter”) (whether by agreement between the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee or after a settlement agreement is executed or
a final judgment or order is rendered by an arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction with respect to the Indemnification Matter), the Indemnitor shall promptly (and in any event, not later than 10 days after such determination) pay the
Indemnification Amount, in cash, to the Indemnitee. Any Indemnification Amount that is not paid in full within 10 days after final determination of the Indemnification Amount as set forth above, such unpaid amount shall thereafter accrue interest
through the date of payment at the prime rate as reported in The Wall Street Journal, Eastern Edition for the date of such final determination.

greatest extent possible on successive days, and (ii) observing strictly the time periods established by the Rules or by the arbitrator for submission of evidence or briefs. 
 (e) The parties shall share equally the fees and expenses of the arbitrator. 
 (f) Judgment on the award of the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction over the party against which enforcement of the award is
being sought and the parties hereby irrevocably consent to the jurisdiction of any such court for the purpose of enforcing any such award. 
 (g) The parties hereto agree that the provisions of this Section 8.6 shall not be construed to prohibit any party from obtaining, in the proper case, specific performance or injunctive relief in any court of competent jurisdiction with
respect to the enforcement of any covenant or agreement of another party to this Agreement as provided herein. 
 Section 8.7
Enforcement of Agreement. Each party hereto acknowledges that irreparable damage would result if this Agreement is not specifically enforced. Therefore, the covenants, agreements, rights and obligations of the parties under the
Agreement, including, without limitation, their respective rights and obligations to sell and purchase the Acquired Assets, and to assign the Management Agreements, as well as the rights and obligations of the parties under Articles V, VIII and X,
shall be enforceable by a decree of specific performance issued by any court of competent jurisdiction, and appropriate injunctive relief may be applied for and granted in connection therewith. Each party hereto agrees that monetary damages would
not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Agreement and hereby agrees to waive the defense that a remedy at law may be adequate in any action for specific performance hereunder.

 (c) No provision of this Agreement may be waived unless such waiver is in writing and signed by the party against whom
