&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)a spreadsheet delivered as an exhibit to the Estimated Closing Statement (the "***Consideration Spreadsheet***"), which sets forth, as of the Closing Date, wire transfer instructions (or other payment directions) for all Persons to be paid under **Section 3.2** together with the amount payable to each such Person; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)for all Estimated Transaction Expenses, copies of all final invoices or other evidence from each such payee acknowledging the invoiced amounts as full and final payment for all services rendered to or otherwise due and owing or payable by or on behalf of the Acquired Companies.

**Section 2.4<u>Purchase Price Adjustment</u>**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)As soon as practicable, but in no event later than 90 days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Seller a statement containing its good faith estimate and reasonably detailed calculations of the Closing Cash Amount, the Closing Indebtedness, the Closing Transaction Expenses and the Closing Net Working Capital (the "***Closing Statement***").

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)After receipt of the Closing Statement, Seller shall have 30 days to review the Closing Statement. Buyer shall make available to Seller and its authorized Representatives, upon written request: (i) the books and records, work papers, trial balances and other supporting information relating to the Closing Statement and the calculations set forth therein; and (ii) Buyer's and the Acquired Companies' personnel and accountants involved in the preparation of the Closing Statement; provided, that Seller shall first obtain Buyer's consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Buyer shall cooperate with and respond in good faith to Seller's reasonable requests related thereto. Seller shall deliver written notice to Buyer on or prior to the 30th day after its receipt of the Closing Statement specifying in reasonable detail the amount, nature and basis of all disputed items (the "***Dispute Notice***"). Any items in the Closing Statement not specifically disputed in the Dispute Notice shall be deemed agreed to by Seller. Buyer and Seller shall, within 30 days (or such longer period as Buyer and Seller may agree in writing) following delivery of the Dispute Notice (the "***Resolution Period***"), attempt to resolve their differences and any resolution by them as to any disputed amounts shall be final, binding and conclusive. If Seller does not deliver a Dispute Notice to Buyer by the 30th day after its receipt of the Closing Statement, such Closing Statement shall be deemed approved by Seller and will be final and conclusive.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)If, at the conclusion of the Resolution Period, there are any amounts remaining in dispute, then either Buyer or Seller may provide written notice to the other that it elects to submit the amounts remaining in dispute to the Neutral Accountants. Each Party agrees to execute, if requested by the Neutral Accountants, a reasonable engagement letter, including customary indemnities. The Neutral Accountants shall act as an expert and not as an arbitrator to determine, based solely on the provisions of this **Section 2.4** and the presentations by Seller and Buyer, and not by independent review, only those issues still in dispute. There shall be no *ex parte* communications between either Seller or Buyer, on the one hand, and the Neutral Accountants, on the other hand, relating to those matters in dispute, other than the initial written submission by Seller and Buyer of their respective positions on the matters in dispute and written answers by Seller and Buyer to written questions from the Neutral Accountants. The Neutral Accountants shall be authorized to select only the position as to each item in dispute as presented by either Seller (on the one hand) or Buyer (on the other hand), it being acknowledged and agreed that the Neutral Accountants may agree with Seller on certain matters and Buyer on other matters and therefore potentially resulting in a determination in the aggregate that differs from that proposed by both Seller and Buyer. In making such calculations and determination, the Neutral Accountants (A) shall be bound by the terms of this Agreement, including the definitions contained herein and (B) shall not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by either Party or less than the smallest value for such item claimed by either Party. The Neutral Accountants' determination shall be made within 30 days of submission of the amounts remaining in dispute, shall be set forth in a written statement delivered to Seller and Buyer and shall be final, binding and conclusive on the Parties. A judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction may be entered upon the Neutral Accountants' determination. The terms "***Final Closing Cash Amount***", "***Final Closing Indebtedness***", "***Final Closing Transaction Expenses***" and "***Final Closing Net Working Capital***" shall mean the definitive Closing Cash Amount, Closing Indebtedness, Closing Transaction Expenses and Closing Net Working Capital agreed to (or deemed to be agreed to) by Buyer and Seller in accordance with **Section 2.4(b)** hereof or resulting from the determinations made by the Neutral Accountants in accordance with this **Section 2.4(c)** (in addition to those items theretofore agreed to by Seller and Buyer) (collectively, the "***Final Statement***").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)Buyer and Seller shall bear the fees and other costs charged by the Neutral Accountants in inverse proportion as they may prevail on matters resolved by the Neutral Accountants, which proportionate allocations shall also be determined by the Neutral Accountants at the time the determination of the Neutral Accountants is rendered on the merits of the matters submitted. For example, if Seller challenges items underlying the calculation of Net

------

Working Capital in the net amount of $100,000, and the Neutral Accountants determines that Seller has a valid claim for $40,000 of the $100,000, Seller, on the one hand, shall bear 60% of the fees and expenses of the Neutral Accountants and Buyer, on the other hand, shall bear 40% of the fees and expenses of the Neutral Accountants. During the review by the Neutral Accountants, Seller and Buyer shall each make available, or cause their respective Representatives to make available, to the Neutral Accountants such individuals and such information, books, records and work papers, as may be reasonably required by the Neutral Accountants to fulfill its obligations under **Section 2.4(c)**; provided, that the independent accountants of Seller and Buyer or the Acquired Companies shall not be obligated to make any work papers available to the Neutral Accountants unless and until the Neutral Accountants have signed a customary confidentiality and hold harmless agreement relating to such access to work papers in form and substance reasonably acceptable to such independent accountants.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)<u>Closing Payment Adjustment; Final Cash Purchase Price; Payment</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)The Closing Payment shall be: (i) increased dollar for dollar by the amount, if any, by which (A) the Final Closing Cash Amount exceeds the Estimated Closing Cash Amount, (B) the Estimated Closing Indebtedness exceeds the Final Closing Indebtedness, (C) the Estimated Transaction Expenses exceeds the Final Closing Transaction Expenses; and (D) the Final Closing Net Working Capital exceeds the Estimated Net Working Capital, or (ii) decreased dollar for dollar by the amount, if any, by which (A) the Estimated Closing Cash Amount exceeds the Final Closing Cash Amount, (B) the Final Closing Indebtedness exceeds the Estimated Closing Indebtedness, (C) the Final Closing Transaction Expenses exceed the Estimated Transaction Expenses and (D) the Estimated Net Working Capital exceeds the Final Closing Net Working Capital (the net adjustment of the calculations above shall be referred to as the "***Closing Payment Adjustment***").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)If the Closing Payment Adjustment is a positive amount, Buyer shall pay such amount via wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account specified by Seller within five Business Days after the Final Statement becomes final, and subject to any deduction made in accordance with **Section 2.5**, the entirety of the Escrow Amount shall be released to Seller.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)If the Closing Payment Adjustment is a negative amount Seller shall pay the amount of the Closing Payment Adjustment by via wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account specified by Buyer within five Business Days after the Final Statement becomes final. Seller's obligation to pay such amount shall first be satisfied from the Escrow Amount, and if the Escrow Amount is insufficient to pay such amount (the "***Payment Deficit***"), Seller shall pay to Buyer the amount of such Payment Deficit. If the amount of the Closing Payment Adjustment is less than the total Escrow Amount, any excess remaining after payment to Buyer shall be released to Seller subject to any deduction made in accordance with **Section 2.5**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv)Any such payments under this **Section 2.4(e)** shall be treated as an adjustment to the purchase price paid for the Purchased Interests for all Tax purposes, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Laws.

**Section 2.5<u>Escrow Amount</u>**. On the Closing Date, the Escrow Amount will be deposited in an escrow account designated by the Escrow Agent to be held by the Escrow Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement until released to Seller or Buyer, as set forth in **Section 2.4(e)**. Seller shall pay all fees and expenses payable to the Escrow Agent. To the extent that, prior to the date of the release of the Escrow Amount in accordance with **Section 2.4(e)**, any Liability is incurred by Buyer to maintain the AWS 401(k)

------

Plan in compliance with applicable Law for errors, events, actions, or circumstances that occurred prior to the Closing Date and that in the aggregate exceeds $100,000, such excess amount shall be satisfied from the Escrow Amount.

**Section 2.6<u>Tax Treatment; Purchase Price Allocation</u>**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)The Seller represents, acknowledges and agrees that each Acquired Company is an entity that is disregarded as an entity separate from its owner for United States federal, state, and local income tax purposes under Section 301.7701-3(b)(1)(ii) of the Treasury Regulations, and that the acquisition of the Purchased Interests will be treated as the taxable acquisition of the assets of each Acquired Company for federal income tax purposes (the "***Intended Tax Treatment***"); and Buyer and Seller agree not to report or take any tax position (on a Tax Return or otherwise) for United States federal, state, and local income tax purposes that is inconsistent with the Intended Tax Treatment, unless otherwise required pursuant to a determination within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code (or any analogous provision of state, local or foreign Law).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)Within 60 days following the determination of the Final Statement, acting in good faith, Buyer shall deliver to Seller a proposed allocation of the consideration for the pro-rata portion of the assets of the Acquired Companies (as determined for federal income Tax purposes) among the assets of the Acquired Companies in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code and any analogous provisions of applicable Law (the "***Proposed Tax Allocation***"). Acting in good faith, Seller shall have 30 days following their receipt of the Proposed Tax Allocation ("***Seller Review Period***") to propose any changes or indicate concurrence therewith, and Buyer shall consider any changes proposed by Seller in good faith. If Seller does not propose written changes to Buyer by the 30th day after receipt of the Proposed Tax Allocation, Buyer's Proposed Tax Allocation shall be deemed approved by each Party (the "***Final Allocation***"). In the event Seller does not approve of the Proposed Tax Allocation, the Parties shall work in good faith to resolve any disagreements, and, if they do resolve all disputed matters, the Proposed Tax Allocation, as modified pursuant to such resolution, shall become the Final Allocation. If, however, the Parties cannot reach agreement with respect to all disputed matters within 30 days after the Seller Review Period, each Party shall have the right to allocate the Total Consideration among the assets of the Acquired Companies on such Party's IRS Form 8594 as such Party determines in good faith on the advice of its tax and accounting advisors. None of the Parties or any of their respective Affiliates shall take any position inconsistent with the Intended Tax Treatment or, in the event the Parties agree to a Final Allocation, the Final Allocation on any Tax Return or any Tax Proceeding, in each case, except to the extent required pursuant to a "determination" within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code (or any analogous provision of state, local or foreign Law).

**Section 2.7<u>Earnout</u>**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)Seller shall be eligible to receive deferred consideration in an aggregate cash amount not to exceed $5,000,000.00 (the "***Earnout Amount***"), as determined in accordance with this **Section 2.7**. If the EBITDA of the Acquired Companies with respect to the Earnout Period is *equal to or greater than* the EBITDA Target, then Buyer shall pay to Seller the applicable Earnout Amount in accordance with **Section 2.7(c)**. If the EBITDA of the Acquired Companies as of the end of the Earnout Period is *less than* the EBITDA Target, then the Earnout Amount will not have been earned and will not be owed or payable (and will be forfeited). EBITDA of the Acquired Companies shall be calculated as defined in this Agreement and in accordance with the methodology set forth on <u>Schedule A</u> to this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)Within 60 days after the expiration of the Earnout Period, Buyer shall provide Seller with a written statement (the "***Earnout Statement***") setting forth in reasonable detail its good faith determination of the Earnout Amount owed to Seller, if any, along with the calculation of such Earnout Amount. Seller shall have the right to review the Earnout Statement and shall notify Buyer in writing within 30 days after receipt of the Earnout Statement, which

------

notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for any objection and shall provide supporting information and calculations with respect thereto. The Parties shall cooperate in good faith to reach agreement on the disputed items or amounts, if any. Any items in the Earnout Statement not disputed by Seller in writing within 30 days after receipt of the Earnout Statement will be deemed agreed to by the Parties. If no timely written objection by Seller has been given, the Earnout Statement, as prepared by Buyer, and as adjusted pursuant to any agreement between the Parties (the "***Final Earnout Statement***"), will be final and binding on the Parties. If the Parties are unable to reach an agreement regarding the Earnout Statement and any resulting Earnout Amount, then Seller will retain the right to dispute the Earnout Statement and any resulting Earnout Amount in the same manner as set forth in and otherwise in accordance with the dispute resolution provisions of **Section 2.4(c)** and **Section 2.4(d)** as if such provisions were incorporated into and set out in this **Section 2.7**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)Within 10 Business Days after the determination of the Final Earnout Statement in accordance with **Section 2.7(b)**, Buyer shall pay to Seller the positive amount of the applicable Earnout Amount (if any) set forth in the Final Earnout Statement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)Subject to the terms of this Agreement, including **Section 2.7(h)**, and the Ancillary Agreements, the Parties acknowledge and agree that, from and after the Closing, the management and operations of the Acquired Companies and its business will be at Buyer's (and its Affiliates, including the Acquired Companies) sole discretion.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)Buyer and its Affiliates (including the Acquired Companies) shall have no obligation to operate the Business in a manner solely because it is necessary or intended to achieve the Earnout Amount or to maximize the amount of the Earnout Amount. The Parties understand and acknowledge that, following the Closing, acting commercially reasonably and in good faith, Buyer shall have all necessary authority to alter or change the manner in which the Acquired Companies conduct or operate their business, manage day-to-day operations, approach the market, and incentivize employees or attract and retain customers or suppliers; *provided, however*, Buyer and its Affiliates shall not take any action with respect to the Acquired Companies or the operation of the Business that is for the purpose of intentionally avoiding or reducing the Earnout Amount.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f)The Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the future performance of Buyer, the Acquired Companies and their respective Affiliates is subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties, contingencies, and normal business disruption necessary to integrate each Acquired Company and its business with and into Buyer and its Affiliates and their respective businesses, (ii) actual results of Buyer, the Acquired Companies and their respective Affiliates may vary from anticipated results, and (iii) there is no assurance, agreement or guarantee that the Earnout Amount will be achieved.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g)Any payment made pursuant to this **Section 2.7** shall be treated as part of the Total Consideration for all Tax purposes, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law (it being acknowledged that a portion of the Earnout Amount (if any) may be required to be treated as interest pursuant to Section 483 of the Code and other applicable Tax Law).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements, if, after Closing, Buyer (i) takes any action or causes the Acquired Companies or the Business to be operated in a manner that prevents or materially interferes with the accurate determination, on a standalone basis, of the Acquired Companies' EBITDA, or (ii) makes or directs any operational change that, by direct or indirect means, is intended to reduce EBITDA or otherwise diminish Seller's ability to earn the Earnout Amount, thereby rendering accurate calculation of the Earnout Amount under this **Section 2.7** impossible or impracticable, then Seller shall be deemed to have earned the full Earnout Amount, and the Final Earnout Statement shall reflect a payment from Buyer to Seller of the maximum Earnout Amount. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties understand and agree that if the Acquired Companies' EBITDA

------

cannot be determined by Buyer acting reasonably and in good faith, then Seller shall be deemed to have earned the full Earnout Amount.

**Section 2.8<u>Withholding</u>**. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Buyer shall be entitled to withhold and deduct from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as Buyer is required to withhold and deduct with respect to the making of such payment under applicable Tax Laws; provided, that Buyer shall notify Seller prior to deducting and withholding from any consideration otherwise payable to Seller pursuant to this Agreement and shall reasonably cooperate with Seller in seeking to reduce or eliminate any such deduction or withholding. Any such withheld amounts shall be paid to the appropriate Taxing Authority within the time periods required under the applicable Tax Laws. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and paid over to the appropriate Taxing Authority, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding were made.

No Employee Benefit Plan or any fiduciary thereof has been the subject of an audit, investigation or examination by any Governmental Authority.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)Each Employee Benefit Plan intended to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Code has received a received a favorable determination letter from the IRS (or is comprised of a master or prototype plan or pre-approved plan that has received a favorable opinion letter from the IRS) that it is so qualified, and no event has occurred and no conditions or circumstances exist that would reasonably be expected to result in the revocation of any such determination letter or opinion letter or that could adversely affect the qualified status.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k)Full payment has been timely made of all amounts which the Acquired Companies are required, under applicable law or under any Employee Benefit Plan or any agreement relating to any Employee Benefit Plan to which an Acquired Company is a party, to have paid as contributions, distributions, reimbursements, premiums and payments (including all employer contributions, employee salary reduction contributions, and premium payments), and such contributions, distributions, reimbursements, premiums and payments have been timely deposited into the appropriate trusts or accounts or, to the extent not yet due, properly accrued for on the books and records of the Acquired Companies in accordance with GAAP. All such contributions and/or premiums have been fully deducted for income tax purposes and no such deduction has been challenged or disallowed by any Governmental Authority, and no event has occurred, and to Seller's Knowledge, no condition or circumstance exists that could give rise to any such challenge or disallowance.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(l)The Acquired Companies do not maintain an Employee Benefit Plan that is (i) a "group health plan" (as such term is defined in Section 5000(b)(1) of the Code or Section 607(1) of ERISA) that has not been established, administered and operated in all material respects in compliance with the applicable requirements of Part 6 of Subtitle B of Title I of ERISA and Section 4980B of the Code or (ii) a "group health plan" (as defined in 45 Code of Federal Regulations Section 160.103) that has not been established, administered and operated in all material respects in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 and the regulations promulgated thereunder, and the Acquired Companies are not subject to any Liability, including additional contributions, fines, Taxes, penalties or loss of Tax deduction, as a result of such administration and operation. Each Employee Benefit Plan that is intended to meet the requirements of Section 125 of the Code meets such requirements. Each Employee Benefit Plan that is a "group health plan" as defined in Section 733(a)(1) (each, a "***Company Health Plan***") is, to the extent applicable, currently, and at all relevant times has complied, and is in compliance, with the Patient Protection and Affordable

Care Act, Pub. L. No. 111-148, the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, Pub. L. No. 111-152 and all regulatory and other guidance promulgated thereunder (collectively, the "***Affordable Care Act***"). No event has occurred, and no condition or circumstance exists, that, to Seller's Knowledge, could reasonably be expected to subject the Acquired Companies or the Company Health Plan to penalties or excise taxes under Sections 4980D or 4980H of the Code or any other provision of the Healthcare Reform Laws.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(m)Except as set forth on **Section 5.22(m)** of the Seller Disclosure Schedules, neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the approval or the consummation of the Transactions (either alone or in connection with any other event), could (i) result in any payment becoming due to any current or former employee, manager, director, independent contractor or consultant of the Acquired Companies, including any bonus, retention, severance or change of control payment, (ii) materially increase any payments or benefits payable under any Employee Benefit Plan, (iii) result in the acceleration of the time of payment, funding or vesting of any payments or benefits under any Employee Benefit Plan, (iv) limit or restrict the ability to merge, amend or terminate any Employee Benefit Plan, in each case, as a result of the execution of this Agreement or (v) result in the imposition of a Tax pursuant to Section 4999 of the Code on any Person or result in the payment of any amount or benefit (whether in cash, property, the vesting of property or otherwise) that could, individually or in combination with any other such payment, constitute an "excess parachute payments" within the meaning of Section 280G(b) of the Code.

**Section 5.24<u>Warranty</u>**.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)The Acquired Companies have not provided any express warranties (oral or written) with respect to any products currently or formerly sold, distributed, provided, shipped or licensed, or any services rendered or provided, by the Acquired Companies, beyond those set forth in the standard conditions of sale or service, except to the extent such warranty has or will have expired prior to Closing.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (y) the passive ownership of three percent or less of any class of securities of a Person whose securities are listed on a recognized securities exchange that engages in a Competing Business and (z) continued ownership of any Person that engages in a Competing Business that is owned by any upstream Affiliate of Seller on the Closing Date, shall not be a violation of this **Section 6.1**.

agree that any judicial authority or arbitral authority construing this Agreement shall be empowered to sever any portion of the Territory, any prohibited business activity or any time period from the coverage of this **Section 6.1** and to apply the provisions of this **Section 6.1** to the remaining portion of the Territory, the remaining business activities and the remaining time period not so severed by such judicial or arbitral authority. The time period during which the prohibitions set forth in this **Section 6.1** shall apply shall be tolled and extended for a period equal to the aggregate time during which Seller or any of its Affiliates or Representatives violate such prohibitions in any respect. If any court determines that any provision of this **Section 6.1** is unenforceable as to Seller because of the duration or geographic scope of such provision, such court shall have the power to reduce the duration or scope of such provision, as the case may be, as to Seller and, in its reduced form, such provision shall then be enforceable. The covenants contained in this **Section 6.1** and each provision hereof are severable and distinct covenants and provisions. The invalidity or unenforceability of any such covenant or provision as written shall not invalidate or render unenforceable the remaining covenants or provisions hereof, and any such invalidity or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such covenant or provision in any other jurisdiction.

Seller acknowledges and agrees that it will receive significant consideration and benefits in connection with the consummation of the Transactions and that the consideration and benefits received by Seller pursuant to this Agreement constitutes good, valuable, adequate and sufficient consideration for the covenants of Seller under this **Section 6.1**.

It is agreed by the Parties that the foregoing covenants in this **Section 6.1** are necessary in terms of time, activity, scope and Territory to protect the interests of Buyer and its Affiliates in the assets of the Acquired Companies and the Business, including the Confidential Information, being acquired pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and impose a reasonable restraint on Seller in light of the Business on the Closing Date and the current plans of the Acquired Companies and the benefits being received by Seller, and if violated, would cause Buyer and its Affiliates irreparable harm that could not be adequately or solely measured or compensated by the rules of applicable Law and legal remedies, including monetary relief. Accordingly, Seller acknowledges and agrees that, if Seller or any of its Affiliates or its or their respective Representatives breaches any of the covenants set forth in this **Section 6.1**, Buyer shall, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies that may be available to it in respect of such breach, be entitled to obtain equitable relief as set forth in **Section 9.4**.

**Section 6.2<u>Confidentiality</u>**.

If Seller or any of its Affiliates or its or their respective Representatives are compelled to disclose any Confidential Information by judicial or administrative process or by other applicable Laws, Seller shall promptly notify Buyer in writing prior to making any such disclosures, if possible, and shall disclose only that portion of such Confidential Information which Seller is advised by its legal counsel in writing is legally required to be disclosed; provided, that Seller shall, if instructed by Buyer, use its

------

commercially reasonable efforts to obtain an appropriate protective Order or other reasonable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such Confidential Information. Seller acknowledges and agrees that Buyer, as of Closing, becomes the exclusive owner of the Confidential Information and that neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates or Representatives has any right, title or interest therein.

Seller and Buyer agree that, from time to time after the Closing Date, each of them will, and will cause their employees and Affiliates to, execute and deliver such further instruments and cooperate to promptly take such other action as may be reasonably requested by the other party to carry out the purposes and intents of this Agreement and the Transactions.

**Section 6.4<u>Directors' and Officers' Indemnification</u>**. From and after the Closing, Buyer agrees that all rights to indemnification and exculpation from Liability for acts or omissions occurring prior to the Closing by the Acquired Companies now existing in favor of each Person who is now, or has been at any time prior to the Closing Date, an officer, manager, director or board observer of the Acquired Companies (each a "***D&O Indemnified Party***"), as provided in the Acquired Companies' Organizational Documents, shall survive the Closing and shall remain in full force and effect in all material respects in accordance with their terms for a period of not less than six years after the Closing Date, and, in the event that any Action is pending or asserted or any claim made during such period, until the final disposition of such Action.

All subsequent disclosures relating to the Transactions, and the method of the release for publication thereof, shall be subject to the prior approval of Buyer, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, that no Party shall be required to obtain consent pursuant to this **Section 6.5** to the extent any proposed release or statement is substantially equivalent to the information that has previously been made public without breach of the obligation under this **Section 6.5**. The restriction in this **Section 6.5** shall not apply to public announcements required by applicable securities Law, any Governmental Authority or stock exchange rule.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)the lien of all ad valorem real estate taxes and assessments not yet due and payable as of the Issuance Date;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)local, state and federal laws, ordinances or governmental regulations, including but not limited to, building and zoning laws, ordinances and regulations, now or hereafter in effect relating to the Property; and

will remit such amount in cash to Buyer within five (5) Business Days after such amount is agreed by the Parties.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)Buyer shall cause the Acquired Companies to timely prepare or cause to be prepared, all other Tax Returns for the Acquired Companies that relate in whole or in part to a Pre-Closing Tax Period and that are not described in **Section 7.1(a)**, including all Tax Returns for all Straddle Periods. The Parties agree that all deductions arising from Transaction Expenses shall be allocable to the Pre-Closing Tax Period to the maximum extent permitted by Law. Without limiting **Section 7.2**, Seller shall cooperate with Buyer and provide reasonable assistance and information as is reasonably requested by Buyer in order to enable Buyer to prepare and file all Tax Returns described in the first sentence of this Section 7.1(b). Buyer shall provide a copy of each such Tax Return to Seller for review and comment at least 15 Business Days prior to the due date thereof and, to the extent that Seller could reasonably be expected to be liable for any Tax on such Tax Returns under this Agreement, Buyer shall make such revisions to such Tax Returns as are reasonably requested by Seller, subject to Buyer's approval (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Seller shall pay to Buyer an amount equal to the Taxes reflected as due on any such Tax Return that are attributable to the Pre-Closing Tax Period (but only to the extent that such amount is in excess of the Acquired Companies' aggregate reserves for such Taxes and was not otherwise taken into account in determining any amounts paid hereunder, including as Accrued Income Taxes) no later than three Business Days before the due date of such Tax Return, based on the methodology set forth in **Section 7.2**.

**Section 7.2<u>Straddle Periods</u>**.

Buyer and Seller shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, elect with the relevant Taxing Authority to treat for all applicable Tax purposes the Closing Date as the last day of a taxable period of the Acquired Companies.

**Section 7.3<u>Transfer Taxes</u>**. All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration, value added and other such Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with this Agreement or the Transactions (including any real property transfer Tax and any other similar Tax) (collectively, "***Transfer Taxes***") shall be borne and paid 50% by the Seller and 50% by the Buyer, and if any Transfer Taxes that are the responsibility of one Party are paid by the other Party, the Party responsible for such Transfer Taxes shall make prompt reimbursement.

Seller shall be entitled to control and defend any Tax Proceeding; provided, that Seller shall (i) permit Buyer to participate (at its own expense) in such Tax Proceeding, (ii) keep Buyer reasonably informed of the major developments and status of such Tax Proceeding, and (iii) not settle or compromise any such Tax Proceeding without Buyer's written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

**Section 7.5<u>Amended Tax Returns and Retroactive Elections</u>**. Unless otherwise required by Law (as mutually determined by Buyer and Seller, acting in good faith), Buyer shall not, and shall not cause or permit the Acquired Companies to, (i) amend any Tax Returns filed with respect to any tax year ending on or before the Closing Date or with respect to any Straddle Period, (ii) make any Tax election that has retroactive effect to any such year or to any Straddle Period, or (iii) voluntarily approach any Tax authority to initiate a voluntary disclosure (or similar) proceeding with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period, in each such case to the extent doing so could result in any adverse tax consequences to Seller (including consequences pursuant to this Agreement), without the prior written consent of Seller, which consent shall not be unreasonably conditioned, delayed or withheld.

**Section 7.6<u>General Cooperation</u>**. Without limiting any other provision of this **Article VII**, Buyer and Seller shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other Parties, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns and any Action with respect to Taxes of the Acquired Companies, including any Tax Proceedings. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon another party's request) the provision of records and information reasonably relevant to any such Action and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. Buyer and Seller agree to retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Acquired Companies relating to any Pre-Closing Tax Period until the expiration of 60 days after the applicable statute of limitations (including any extensions thereof), and to abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any Governmental Authority, to the extent such retention agreements are made known to the applicable Party in writing.

**Section 7.7<u>Tax-Sharing Agreements</u>**. All tax-sharing agreements or similar agreements with respect to or involving the Acquired Companies shall be terminated as of the Closing Date and, after the Closing Date, the Acquired Companies shall not be bound thereby or have any Liability thereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Seller shall be entitled to receipt of those Tax refunds set forth on **Section 7.7** of the Seller Disclosure Schedules, and to the extent that an Acquired Company receives such Tax refunds instead of Seller (in accordance with the letter agreement attached to **Section 7.7** of the Seller Disclosure Schedules), Buyer shall promptly remit such Tax refunds to Seller upon receipt thereof.

For convenience of reference, the date upon which any covenant contained herein shall terminate is referred to herein as the "***Covenant Termination Date***."

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)The Indemnifying Party shall have 30 days after receipt of the Claim Notice (unless such Action requires a response before the expiration of such 30 day period) to undertake, conduct and control, through counsel of its own choosing, and at its sole expense, the settlement or defense thereof, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in connection therewith; provided, that: (i) the Indemnifying Party shall permit the Indemnified Party to participate in such settlement or defense, including all conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals, through counsel chosen by the Indemnified Party (provided that the fees and expenses of such counsel shall not be borne by the Indemnifying Party); and (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall not pay, compromise or settle any Third Party Claim without the Indemnified Party's prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, unless the proposed payment, compromise or settlement (A) involves solely the payment of money damages by the Indemnifying Party, (B) includes an unconditional and irrevocable release by the Person(s) asserting such claim of the Indemnified Party from any Liabilities with respect to such claim, (C) does not impose any restriction on the Indemnified Party or any injunctive or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party, (D) does not include or require a finding or admission of any wrongdoing by the Indemnified Party and (E) does not materially damage, limit or hinder future operations of the Business.

If the Indemnifying Party fails to diligently defend the Third Party Claim in good faith, then after receipt of written notice from the Indemnified Party regarding such failure and the Indemnifying Party's subsequent failure to cure such failure within 10 Days after receiving such notice, the Indemnified Party shall have right to assume defense of

------

such Third Party Claim at the sole expense of the Indemnifying Party with counsel of its own choosing.

The Notice of Direct Claim shall specify facts reasonably known to the Indemnified Party giving rise to such indemnity rights and shall indicate, to the extent reasonably ascertainable, the estimated amount of the Losses that have been or may be incurred by the Indemnified Party and, if then available, related documentation supporting such claim. The Indemnifying Party shall have 30 days following its receipt of a Notice of Direct Claim to review the Notice of Direct Claim and to notify the Indemnified Party that it either (a) agrees the Direct Claim is a claim for which the Indemnifying Party is obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party as a Direct Claim under **Section 8.2** or **Section 8.3,** in which case the Indemnified Party shall be conclusively deemed entitled to indemnification hereunder with respect to the matters described in such Notice of Direct Claim, subject to the limitations provided in this **Article VIII** (an "***Accepted Direct Claim Notice***"), or (b) disputes, acting reasonably and in good faith, the right of the Indemnified Party to indemnification hereunder (a "***Disputed Direct Claim Notice***"). During the 30-day period, the Indemnified Party during regular business hours shall allow the Indemnifying Party and its professional advisors to investigate the matter or circumstance alleged to give rise to the Direct Claim, and whether and to what extent any amount is payable in respect of the Direct Claim and the Indemnified Party shall reasonably assist the Indemnifying Party's investigation by providing such assistance and giving such information readily available to it as the Indemnifying Party or any of its professional advisors may reasonably request. If the Indemnifying Party (x) provides the Indemnified Party a Disputed Direct Claim Notice, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have rejected such Direct Claim, in which case the Indemnified Party shall be free to pursue all remedies against the Indemnifying Party under this Agreement or applicable Law or (y) does not provide the Indemnified Party a Disputed Direct Claim Notice or provides an Accepted Direct Claim Notice, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to agree that the Direct Claim is indemnifiable under this Agreement and defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnified Party pursuant to this Agreement for the Losses thereunder, subject to the limitations under this **Article VIII,** and the Indemnified Party shall promptly pay over to the Indemnified Party in immediately available funds within 10 days any amounts due as a result thereof (and otherwise satisfy any obligations thereunder within such period) and otherwise comply with its obligations to the Indemnified Party hereunder (including any under an Order).

**Ranger Energy Services Announces Agreement to Acquire American Well Services**

HOUSTON, TX — (November 10, 2025) — Ranger Energy Services, Inc. (NYSE: RNGR) ("Ranger" or the "Company") today announced it has acquired American Well Services ("AWS"), a Permian Basin-focused well services provider, from Argonaut Private Equity ("Argonaut").

**<u>Strategic Highlights</u>**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Expands scale with rig count increasing approximately 25% galvanizing Ranger as the largest well-servicing provider in the Lower 48

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Represents a compelling valuation with total consideration of approximately $90.5 million, representing less than 2.5 times trailing EBITDA

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Generates accretion to earnings and cash flow immediately with expected synergies of $4 million identified

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Expects future pro forma EBITDA to exceed $100 million with higher earnings potential as commodity prices recover

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Enables strong pull-through revenue opportunities to Ranger's high specification rig segment with the addition of new complementary service lines

**Stuart Bodden, CEO of Ranger Energy Services**<br>"Today marks another foundational step in Ranger's growth journey. With the acquisition of AWS, Ranger is the largest well-services provider in the United States and uniquely positioned to capitalize on a market recovery while expanding reach to customers with our new technology. The reputation of the assets and strength of AWS's customer franchise accelerates our strategic roadmap, deepens our relationships with the major operators, and expands our future opportunity set. The fleet of workover rigs at AWS has been well maintained and includes a breadth of complementary equipment. Additionally, with the AWS acquisition, Ranger will be adding service lines that have high pull through opportunities that the AWS team has benefited from in the past few years. We are excited about welcoming a new and talented group of people into the Ranger family and about the innovation and growth we will unlock together. This acquisition further powers our ECHO program and helps deliver step changes in efficiency and safety."

Mr. Bodden continued, "Outside of the strategic merits of this transaction, the consideration represents an attractive multiple with expected accretion on EBITDA, EPS and cash flow metrics in the near-term and illustrates a great use of Ranger's capital and financial flexibility while minimizing dilution. The structure is a sensible mix of cash, stock, and a performance-based earn-out to ensure alignment through integration, all of which underpins our disciplined approach to inorganic growth. The pro forma business

------

should have the capability to quickly repay acquisition-related borrowings under our current revolver while also maintaining Ranger's current capital returns program. We have long held that the cash flows Ranger produces allow us the capacity to pursue both growth and return capital to shareholders, and our continued commitments to capital allocation along with this transaction are evidence of that in action. We will continue to maintain the conservative posture our investors have come to expect and sustain our industry-leading capital return program while adding value accretive transactions to the portfolio."

**Steve Mitchell, CEO & Managing Director of Argonaut Private Equity**<br>"Argonaut has made a series of investments over the past 7 years to create a best in class well services company and is proud to see the culmination of those efforts. The American Well Services team has built a strong platform with a good reputation that has benefited from recent operator consolidations. Making the choice to now combine with Ranger will enable the AWS assets and employees to take advantage of the growth opportunities that come from a multi-basin player with new and differentiated technology at an inflection point in the cycle. I look forward to seeing what the pro forma company will achieve together and appreciate the efforts of all the members of the AWS team that made today's transaction possible."

**Transaction Consideration**

The total consideration payable in the acquisition is approximately $90.5 million, structured as $60 million in cash, 2 million shares of Ranger common stock priced at $12.51 determined in early deal discussions, and a $5 million earn-out contingent on AWS achieving $36 million in EBITDA in the 12 months following closing. The transaction is structured as a cash free, debt free purchase with the cash portion funded with cash on the balance sheet and borrowings on the revolving credit facility. Post-close, leverage is expected to be approximately $50 million, inclusive of Ranger's existing financing leases, putting Ranger's leverage ratio at approximately 0.4x and lower than many peers.

On a pro forma basis, Ranger's go forward EBITDA is expected to exceed $100 million, with earnings potential growing significantly higher under the right macroeconomic conditions. The transaction is expected to be immediately accretive to earnings and free cash flow with expected annual synergies of $4 million to be fully realized before the end of 2026.

This valuation reinforces both Ranger's disciplined approach to acquiring companies and AWS's view of the value creation opportunity created through combining the two companies.

**Strategic Rationale**

This acquisition strengthens Ranger's position as a leader of well servicing solutions and aligns with the pillars of the company's strategic roadmap:

**<u>GROW MARKET LEADING POSITION</u>**

**Market Leadership**: Ranger becomes the largest well servicing provider in the Lower 48, with unmatched scale in the Permian Basin. The pro forma company will strengthen its competitive position by deepening and solidifying ties with major operators. The acquisition also significantly expands Ranger's rig count at paybacks relatively similar to reactivation.

**Growth Platform**: AWS introduces higher margin service lines, such as tubing rentals and inspection, chemical sales, and mixing plants that complement Ranger's high-spec rig fleet and enable strong pull-through revenue opportunities.

------

**Technology Enablement**: The expanded Ranger platform and future cash flow will enhance Ranger's ability to invest in innovation, including the ECHO hybrid electric rig program and the Overwatch AI diagnostics platform, driving efficiency, safety, and emissions reduction.

**<u>MAXIMIZE CASH FLOW GENERATION</u>**

**Compelling Valuation**: Transaction consideration of approximately $90.5 million represents less than 2.5 times trailing EBITDA with a portion of consideration subject to a $5 million earn-out linked to achieving first-year EBITDA performance of $36 million for the acquired business.

**Expanded Financial Prowess**: With pro forma annual EBITDA expected to exceed $100 million in 2026 with greater potential in stronger market conditions, Ranger will be able to expand cash flow generation capabilities meaningfully.

**<u>PRIORITIZE SHAREHOLDER RETURNS</u>**

**Reinforced Commitment:** Post-transaction, Ranger is expected to have sufficient capacity to continue pursuing opportunities to repurchase shares at compelling valuations maintaining a capital allocation strategy of aggressively repurchasing shares when buying opportunities present themselves leading to strong shareholder returns.

**<u>MAINTAIN FINANCIAL FLEXIBILITY</u>**

**Capital Discipline**: Ranger expects to have the capacity to repay acquisition-related borrowings within one year, supported by strong free cash flows post-close. Financial flexibility and the prudent use of capital enabled this transaction and Ranger will continue to place priority on ensuring a best-in-class OFS balance sheet.

Ranger was advised on the transaction by Piper Sandler, with King & Spalding LLP serving as legal counsel to Ranger. Sofos Law was legal counsel to AWS and Argonaut Private Equity.
