NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the representations, warranties, covenants and conditions set forth in this
Agreement, and intending to be legally bound, the Parties agree as follows:

Section 2.4. Accordingly, the parties agree that five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing, Parent shall deliver to Buyer a certificate setting forth Parent’s reasonable, good faith estimate, calculated in accordance with the
principles and methodologies set forth on Schedule 11.16, of (i) the Closing Date Cash (the “Estimated Closing Date Cash”), (ii) the Net Working Capital as of 12:01 a.m., New York City time, on the Closing Date

comments. Buyer and its representatives shall have reasonable access to the books and records, personnel and advisors of Parent and the Group to the extent reasonably required in connection with its review of the foregoing estimates. For the
avoidance of doubt, any failure of Buyer to dispute any item or aspect of the Estimated Membership Interest Value shall not preclude Buyer from exercising any other rights under this Agreement.

Amount, minus the Capital Expenditures Shortfall, plus the Capital Expenditures Surplus, minus the Transaction Expenses, is equal to (y) the Estimated Closing Date Net Working Capital, plus the Estimated Closing
Cash, minus the Estimated Total Indebtedness Amount, minus the Estimated Capital Expenditures Shortfall, plus the Capital Expenditures Surplus, minus the Estimated Transaction Expenses, then the entire amount of the
Adjustment Escrow Amount shall be released to the Representative (for the benefit of Parent, or if Parent has been dissolved or liquidated, the members of Parent at the time of such dissolution or liquidation). 

2.4 Adjustment. 

(a) Not later than sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall, acting in good faith and using all reasonable
efforts, cause to be prepared and delivered to the Representative: (i) a statement of Net Working Capital as of 12:01 a.m., New York City time, on the Closing Date (the “Draft Closing Date Net Working Capital Statement” and, as
finally determined pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.4, the “Closing Date Net Working Capital Statement”), which such Draft Closing Date Net Working Capital Statement shall set out the draft Net Working
Capital as of 12:01 a.m., New York City time, on the Closing Date (such draft Net Working Capital, as finally determined pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.4, referred to as the “Closing Date Net Working
Capital”), (ii) a calculation of the Closing Date Cash, (iii) calculation of the Total Indebtedness Amount, (iv) a calculation of the Capital Expenditures Shortfall or Capital Expenditures Surplus, as applicable, and
(v) a calculation of Transaction Expenses, in each case including a schedule setting forth the components thereof with 

  
 4 

 
reasonable supporting detail. The Representative shall reasonably cooperate with Buyer and its accountants to the extent required to prepare the Draft Closing Date Net Working Capital Statement
and the calculation of the Closing Date Cash, the Total Indebtedness Amount, the Capital Expenditures Shortfall or Capital Expenditures Surplus (as applicable) and Transaction Expenses (collectively, the “Draft Closing Statements”).
The Draft Closing Statements shall be prepared in accordance with this Agreement and the methodologies and principles set forth on Schedule 11.16. 

(b) If the Representative notifies Buyer that Parent agrees with any of the Draft Closing Statements within forty-five
(45) days after receipt thereof or fails to deliver notice to Buyer of its disagreement therewith within such forty-five (45) day period, any such Draft Closing Statements shall be conclusive and binding on Parent and Buyer and the parties
shall be deemed to have agreed thereto, in the first case, on the date Buyer receives the notice and, in the second case, on such forty-fifth (45th) day. If the Representative disagrees with
any of the Draft Closing Statements or the calculations set forth therein, then the Representative shall notify Buyer of its disagreement (the “Dispute Notice”) within such forty-five (45) day period together with reasonable
particulars of the basis of such dispute, including underlying calculations as well as the Representative’s position on the amounts in dispute. In such event, the Representative and Buyer shall work expeditiously and attempt, in good faith, to
resolve their differences with respect thereto within thirty (30) days after the receipt by Buyer of the Dispute Notice and make any amendments to the Draft Closing Statements as mutually agreed to by the parties. 

(c) If Buyer and the Representative are unable to resolve any dispute over any of the Draft Closing Statements or the
calculation of Closing Date Net Working Capital as set forth in the Dispute Notice within thirty (30) days of receipt of the Dispute Notice (or such other period as the parties may agree), then, at any time thereafter, either Buyer or the
Representative may elect to have such dispute resolved by KPMG, or another nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants as to which Buyer and the Representative mutually agree (the “Independent Firm”), which shall,
acting as an expert and not as an arbitrator, determine on the basis of the standards expressly set forth in this Agreement and the methodologies and principles set forth on Schedule 11.16, and only with respect to the remaining differences
so submitted to the Independent Firm (and not by independent review), whether and to what extent, if any, the amounts reflected in the Draft Closing Statements require adjustment. In connection with the engagement of the Independent Firm, Buyer and
the Representative shall execute reasonable engagement letters and supply such other documents and information as the Independent Firm reasonably requires and such other information as such Party reasonably deems appropriate. The Independent Firm
shall be instructed to use every reasonable effort to perform its services within thirty (30) days after submission of the dispute to it and, in any case, as soon as practicable after such submission. In resolving any dispute, the Independent
Firm (A) shall be bound by the terms of this Agreement, including the principles of this Section 2.4 and the methodologies and illustration set forth on Schedule 11.16, and (B) shall not assign a value to any item
greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by Buyer or the Representative, or less than the smallest value for such item claimed by Buyer or the Representative, as set forth in the Draft Closing Statements or the Dispute Notice. Absent
fraud or manifest error, the 

  
 5 

 
Independent Firm’s determination of the dispute shall be conclusive and binding upon both Parties. All fees and expenses of the Independent Firm in connection with the services provided
pursuant to this Section 2.4(c) shall be paid one-half by Buyer and one-half by Parent. 
 (d) During the period
from the date the Draft Closing Statements are delivered by Buyer to the Representative through the date such statements are finally determined in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.4, Buyer shall not, and shall cause its
Affiliates not to, take any action with respect to the accounting books, records, policies and procedures of the Company and its Subsidiaries that would obstruct or prevent the preparation or review of the Draft Closing Statements. Buyer shall
cooperate, and shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to cooperate, with the Representative in the review of the Draft Closing Statements and, if applicable, Buyer’s response to a Dispute Notice, including (i) providing the
Representative and its Representatives with reasonable access during normal business hours to the books, records (including work papers, schedules, memoranda and other documents), facilities and employees of the foregoing, and (ii) cooperating
in all reasonable respects with the Representative and its representatives, including the provision on a timely basis of all other information reasonably requested by Representative which is necessary or useful in connection with the review of the
Draft Closing Statements and, if applicable, Buyer’s response to a Dispute Notice. 
 (e) For greater certainty, each of
the Closing Date Net Working Capital, Closing Date Net Working Capital Statement, Draft Closing Date Net Working Capital Statement, Estimated Closing Date Net Working Capital and Target Net Working Capital are to be calculated and prepared in a
manner consistent, and in accordance with, the indicative Net Working Capital calculation and other principles and methodologies set forth in Schedule 11.16, and each of the Closing Date Cash, the Total Indebtedness Amount, the Capital
Expenditures Shortfall, the Capital Expenditures Surplus and the Transaction Expenses are to be calculated and prepared in a manner consistent, and in accordance with, this Agreement and the principles and methodologies set forth in
Schedule 11.16. 
 (f) After the determination of the Closing Date Net Working Capital, Closing Date Cash, the
Total Indebtedness Amount, the Capital Expenditures Shortfall or Capital Expenditures Surplus, as applicable, the Transaction Expenses and the payments contemplated by Section 2.3(f), no Party shall have the right to make any claim based
on the calculation of the Closing Date Net Working Capital, Closing Date Cash, the Total Indebtedness Amount, the Capital Expenditures Shortfall or Capital Expenditures Surplus, as applicable, the Transaction Expenses or the calculation of any
adjustment related thereto (even if subsequent events or subsequently discovered facts would have affected such calculations had such subsequent events or subsequently discovered facts been known at the time of the Closing).

 2.5 Withholding. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Buyer, the
Company, and the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold any consideration paid or delivered in connection with the transactions contemplated in this Agreement, to any Person such amounts that Buyer, the Company, and the Escrow Agent
are required to deduct and withhold with respect to any such deliveries and payments under the Code or any provision of state, local, provincial or foreign law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld, and duly deposited with the appropriate
Governmental Entity, by Buyer, the Company or the Escrow Agent, such withheld 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 was made.

Subsidiaries or any of their respective ERISA Affiliates has any liability, contributes or is required to contribute (or has within the last six years at any time had any liability, contributed or been required to contribute), none of Parent or any
of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective ERISA Affiliates has incurred any withdrawal or partial withdrawal liability under Title IV of ERISA that remains unsatisfied, and no such Multiemployer Plan is in “reorganization” or

imposition of any Lien under Title IV of ERISA. 
 (iv) Compliance. Each Company Benefit Plan is in compliance,
in all material respects, in form and operation with its own terms and applicable Laws, and the Company and its Subsidiaries have timely made all required material contributions thereto. All material notices, reports and information

Company Benefit Plan or against the assets of any Company Benefit Plan. Each Company Benefit Plan intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code is covered by a favorable IRS determination letter as to the tax-qualified status of the
plan and trust. To the knowledge of Parent, no person has engaged in a “prohibited transaction,” as defined in Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, with respect to any Company Benefit Plan for which no individual or
class exemption exists.

(B) increase the amount of any compensation, equity award or other benefits otherwise payable by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries under any Company Benefit Plan; (C) result in the acceleration of the time of payment, funding or
vesting of any compensation, equity award or other benefits under any Company Benefit Plan; or (D) limit or restrict the right of the Company or any of its subsidiaries to merge, amend or terminate any Company Benefit Plan. 

(vii) No Parachute Payments. Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby will (either alone or in conjunction with any other event) result in any “excess parachute payment” (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code) becoming due to any current or former employee,
officer, director or independent contractor of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. 
 (viii) Section 409A
Compliance. Each “nonqualified deferred compensation plan” (as defined in Section 409A(d)(1) of the Code) subject to Section 409A of the Code and the regulations and other guidance promulgated thereunder maintained or
sponsored by the Company has since (A) January 1, 2005 been maintained and operated in good faith compliance with Section 409A of the Code and Notice 2005-1, (B) October 3, 2004, not been “materially modified” (within the

taking of the steps contemplated by subclauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of this Section 4.3(c)) necessary to vacate, modify or suspend such injunction or other Order, in each case of subclauses (i),

or businesses of Buyer or its Subsidiaries; provided further, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Buyer shall not be required to (and the Group shall not) become subject to, or consent or agree to or otherwise take any
action with respect to, any requirement, condition, understanding, agreement or order of a Governmental Entity to sell, to hold separate or otherwise dispose of, or to conduct, restrict, operate, invest or otherwise change assets or businesses of

separate, or limitation on freedom of action with regard to any aspect of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that is part of the proposed acquisition by Buyer under this Agreement shall be subject to the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no action taken by Buyer and its Affiliates pursuant to this Section 4.3 shall entitle Buyer to any reduction of the Aggregate Purchase Price.

errors in, or omissions from, the Disclosure Schedule or of any condition or circumstance that could excuse Buyer or Parent from timely performance of its obligations hereunder or give rise to a claim by Buyer or Parent hereunder, provided that any
failure to provide notice shall not affect the rights or obligations of any Party has under this Agreement. Buyer’s rights under this Agreement shall not be affected or deemed waived by reason of the fact that Buyer or any of its

treated as an amendment or other modification of any Company Benefit Plan or employee benefit plan maintained by Buyer or its Subsidiaries, or (iii) shall limit the right of Buyer or its Subsidiaries to amend, terminate or otherwise modify any

by the requesting Party for any proper business purpose. Without limitation, for a period of five (5) years after the Closing, each Party shall make available to the other Party, as reasonably requested, and to any Tax authority that is legally
permitted to receive the following pursuant to its subpoena power or its equivalent, all books, records and other information relating to Tax Liabilities or potential Tax Liabilities for all periods prior to or including the Closing Date and shall

books, records or other information relate (without regard to extensions except to the extent notified by the other Party in writing of such extensions for the respective Tax Periods), without first offering in writing to surrender such books,
records and other information to the other Party, which other Party shall have ten days after such offer to agree in writing to take possession thereof. For the avoidance of doubt, after the Closing, books, records and other information in the
possession or control of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be deemed in Buyer’s possession or control for purposes of this Section 5.2(a). 

(b) Cooperation. After the Closing, each Party shall cooperate, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other

requesting Party reasonably requests in connection with such matter; provided, however, that the requesting Party shall promptly reimburse the cooperating Party for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs directly relating to such
cooperation of any of the cooperating Party’s employees who assist the requesting Party.

its reasonable best efforts to respond to and defend against any actual or threatened claim, action, suit, arbitration, proceeding, investigation or inquiry, whether civil, criminal or administrative, in which any Person who is now, or who at any
time prior to the date of this Agreement was, or who prior to the Closing becomes, a director or officer of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any other entity that the Company or any of its Subsidiaries owned an equity security (including in
his or her role as a fiduciary of employee benefit plans) (collectively, the “Indemnified Agents”) is, or is threatened to be, made a party or witness, in whole or in part, as a result of or relating to (i) the fact that at any
time prior to the Closing he or she is or was a director or officer of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, any other entity that the Company or any of its Subsidiaries owned an equity security or any predecessor of any of the foregoing (including
in his or her role as a fiduciary of employee benefit plans) or (ii) this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, whether asserted or arising before or after the Closing, except in each case of the foregoing subclauses
(i) and (ii), other than to the extent that any of the foregoing arises from the Indemnified Agent’s bad faith, willful misconduct, gross negligence or breach of this Agreement (collectively, the “Indemnified Agent
Claims”). 
 (b) Indemnification. For a period of six (6) years after the Closing, Buyer shall
(i) indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, each Indemnified Agent from and against all losses, claims, damages and liabilities, joint or several, to which such Indemnified Agent may become subject under any
applicable Law or otherwise and relating to, arising out of or in connection with any Indemnified Agent Claim and (ii) reimburse each Indemnified Agent for all reasonable expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel) as
they are incurred in connection with any Indemnified Agent Claim. 
 (c) Insurance. Prior to the Closing, Buyer shall
obtain and pay for a so-called “tail” or extended reporting period insurance policy providing for Side A coverage for the current directors and officers of the Company and its Subsidiaries who are covered by the current directors’ and
officers’ liability insurance policy of Parent. Such coverage shall provide for an extended reporting period for reporting claims thereunder of six years from and after the Closing and provide benefits and levels of

  
 37 

 
coverage on terms and conditions (in both amount and scope) providing substantially equivalent benefits in the aggregate as the current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance
policy of Parent with respect to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Closing (including in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such insurance coverage can only be
obtained at an annual premium in excess of 300% of the annual premium of such current policy, Buyer shall only be obligated to obtain one or more policies with the greatest coverage available for an aggregate premium equal to 300% of such current
annual premium. 
 (d) Successors and Assigns. If Buyer or any of its successors or assigns (i) consolidates with
or merges into any other Person and is not the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, Buyer
shall cause proper provision to be made so that the successors and assigns of Buyer assume the obligations set forth in this Section 5.3. 

(e) Third Party Beneficiaries. The provisions of this Section 5.3 are (i) intended to be for the
benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each Indemnified Agent and his or her heirs and Representatives and (ii) in addition to, and not in substitution of, any other rights, including rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses,
that any Indemnified Agent may be entitled to, or hereafter acquire, under any Law, Contract, charter document or otherwise. 
 5.4
Nondisclosure. From and after the Closing Date, Parent shall not, and shall cause its Representatives and Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly disclose to any Person, other than Buyer and its Affiliates, any information concerning the
business and affairs of the Company that is not already generally available to the public or that does not become generally available after the date of this Agreement, in each case without any violation by Parent of its obligations hereunder, and
from and after the date hereof, Parent shall not, and shall cause its Representatives and Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly disclose to any Person, any information concerning the business and affairs of Buyer and its Affiliates that is not
already generally available to the public or that does not become generally available after the date of this Agreement, in each case without any violation by Parent of its obligations hereunder (the “Confidential Information”). In
the event that Parent or any of its Affiliates is requested or required (by oral question or request for information or documents in any legal proceeding, interrogatory, subpoena, civil investigative demand, or similar process) to disclose any
Confidential Information, such party shall 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 5.4. If, in the absence of a
protective order or the receipt of a waiver hereunder, Parent or any of its Affiliates is, on the advice of counsel, compelled to disclose any Confidential Information to any tribunal or else stand liable for contempt, such party may disclose the
Confidential Information to the tribunal; provided that such party shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain, at the request and expense of Buyer, an order or other assurance that confidential treatment shall be accorded to such portion
of the Confidential Information required to be disclosed as Buyer shall designate.

(a) At the Closing, Silver Knot, LLC shall be constituted and appointed as the Representative. For purposes of this Agreement,
the term “Representative” shall mean the representative, true and lawful agent, proxy and attorney in fact of Parent for all purposes of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, with full power and authority on Parent’s behalf
(i) to consummate the transactions contemplated herein, (ii) to pay Parent’s expenses (whether incurred on or after the date hereof) incurred in connection with the negotiation and performance of this Agreement, (iii) to receive,
give receipt and disburse any funds received hereunder on behalf of or to Parent and to holdback from disbursement any such funds to the extent it reasonably determines may be necessary, (iv) to execute and deliver any certificates representing
the Units and execution of such further instruments as Buyer shall reasonably request, (v) to execute and deliver on behalf of Parent all documents contemplated herein and any amendment or waiver hereto, (vi) to take all other actions to

any and all rights which Parent is permitted or required to do or exercise under this Agreement. Parent, by executing this Agreement, irrevocably grants unto said attorney-in-fact and agent full power and authority to do and perform each and every
act and thing necessary or desirable to be done in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, as fully to all intents and purposes as Parent might or could do itself. Parent agrees that such agency and proxy are coupled with an
interest, are therefore irrevocable without the consent of the Representative and shall survive the liquidation, winding up and dissolution of Parent. 

(b) All decisions, actions, consents and instructions of the Representative shall be final and binding upon Parent and Parent
shall not have any right to object, dissent, protest or otherwise contest the same, except for fraud, bad faith or willful misconduct. Neither the Representative nor any agent employed by the Representative shall incur any liability to Parent
relating to the performance of its duties hereunder except for actions or omissions constituting fraud, bad faith or willful misconduct. The Representative shall not have by reason of this Agreement a fiduciary relationship in respect of Parent,
except in respect of amounts actually received on behalf of Parent. The 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. 

(c) Parent shall cooperate with the Representative and any accountants, attorneys or other agents whom the Representative may
retain to assist in carrying out Representative’s duties hereunder. Parent shall reimburse the Representative for all costs and expenses, including professional fees, incurred.

 (d) In the event that the Representative becomes unable to perform the
Representative’s responsibilities or resigns from such position, Parent, or if Parent has been previously dissolved or liquidated the members of Parent holding, prior to such dissolution or liquidation, a majority of the issued and outstanding
membership interests of Parent, shall select another representative to fill such vacancy and such substituted representative shall (i) be deemed to be the Representative for all purposes of this Agreement and (ii) exercise the rights and
powers of, and be entitled to the indemnity, reimbursement and other benefits of, the Representative. 
 (e) Upon the
Closing, Parent shall deliver to the Representative an amount to be determined by the Representative, at its reasonable discretion (the “Representative’s Expense Fund”) to be held in trust to cover and reimburse the fees and
expenses incurred by the Representative for its obligations in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein. Any balance of the Representative’s Expense Fund not incurred for such purposes shall be returned to Parent,
or if Parent has been dissolved or liquidated, to the members of Parent in accordance with their respective ownership of the issued and outstanding membership interests of Parent at the time of such liquidation or dissolution. 

5.6 Other Tax Covenants. 

(a) From and after the Closing, the Buyer Indemnitees shall be entitled to indemnification from Parent, and Parent shall
indemnify, defend and hold harmless each of the Buyer Indemnitees, for all Excluded Taxes (limited in the case of Taxes of the Company and its Subsidiaries to the Indemnification Escrow Deposit). 

(b) During the period from the date hereof and continuing through the Closing, without the prior written consent of Buyer,
Parent shall not, to the extent it may affect, or relate to, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, for a Post-Closing Tax Period, make, change or rescind any Tax election, amend any Tax Return or take any position on any Tax Return, take any
action, omit to take any action or enter into any other transaction other than as is consistent with past practice. Except with the prior written consent of Parent, Buyer shall not and shall procure that the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not
file or cause to be filed any amended Tax Return for any Pre-Closing Tax Period to the extent it may affect, or relate to, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, for a Pre-Closing Tax Period and materially adversely affect the Parent. 

(c) Buyer shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, all Tax Returns required by applicable Law to be filed by or with respect to
the Company and its Subsidiaries after the Closing Date with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period (including any Straddle Period); provided that for the avoidance of doubt Parent shall prepare any federal or state income Tax Return required by
applicable Law to be filed by or with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period (other than a Straddle Period). Any such Tax Return shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past practice (unless
such past practice is not in accordance with Law) and a copy thereof submitted by the preparing Party to the other Party for its review 

  
 40 

 
and comment at least 30 days prior to the due date (including extensions) of such Tax Return; provided that, if the income Tax Returns prepared for review include any business operations and
activities of Parent or Buyer, as applicable, other than with respect to the Company or its Subsidiaries, they shall be prepared on a pro-forma basis that shall only include the business operations and activities of the Company and its Subsidiaries,
with a copy of the actual Tax Returns to be provided by the preparing Party to the other Party at least ten (10) days prior to the due date (including extensions) of such Tax Returns. The preparing Party shall consider in good faith any
comments, but shall not be required to make any changes unless such changes are necessary to cause such Tax Returns to be consistent with the past practices of the Company and its Subsidiaries or Parent with respect to the Company and its
Subsidiaries. The Representative and Parent shall cause to be paid to Buyer any Excluded Taxes relating to any Tax Return described in this Section 5.6(c) that is required to be filed by Buyer or the Company no later than two

to a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code or otherwise by applicable Law. 

(d) The Parties hereby agree and acknowledge that for all income Tax purposes (i) the sale of Units shall be treated as
the sale and purchase of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries (other than the assets of the Corporate Subsidiaries) and (ii) any indemnity payment made under this Agreement and any payment made pursuant to Section 2.3(f)
shall be treated as an adjustment to the Aggregate Purchase Price, and none of the Parties shall take any position inconsistent with such treatment on any Tax Return or for any other Tax purposes. 

(e) The Membership Interest Value (and the Total Indebtedness Amounts, any other assumed liabilities and any other relevant
items for Tax purposes), as adjusted pursuant to Section 2.4, shall be allocated among the respective assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries in accordance with Code Section 1060 and the regulations thereunder and consistent with
their fair market values, which allocation shall reflect and be consistent with Schedule 5.6 (the “Allocation”). The parties acknowledge and agree that no portion of the Membership Interest Value shall be allocated to the
covenants not to compete set forth in Section 5.10 or similar arrangements as defined in Code Section 197(d)(1)(E). No later than sixty (60) days prior to the earlier of the due date for filing the U.S. federal income tax
returns of Parent or Buyer or, if applicable, Buyer’s designated subsidiary pursuant to Section 1 (or if Buyer or such designated subsidiary is a member of a group filing a consolidated Tax Return for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the
parent of such group), Buyer shall deliver to Parent a draft of the Allocation, which shall reflect and be consistent with principles set forth in this Section 5.6 and in Schedule 5.6 for Parent’s review and approval. In the
event of any dispute regarding the Allocation, the dispute resolution principles of Section 2.4(c) shall apply. Each of the Parties agrees to (a) be bound by such allocation (as prepared by Buyer or as determined pursuant to the
dispute resolution principles of Section 2.4(c), the “Final Allocation”), (b) act in accordance with the Final Allocation in the preparation and filing of all Tax Returns and in the course of any Tax audit, Tax
review or Tax litigation relating thereto, and (c) take no position, and cause their Affiliates to take no position, inconsistent with such Final Allocation for income Tax purposes.

of Taxes (whether by direct receipt of money or the application of such refund as a payment in actual reduction of Taxes otherwise then owed in cash for a Post-Closing Tax Period) for a Pre-Closing Tax Period to the extent (i) paid by the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the Closing or paid or indemnified by Parent or (ii) attributable, or resulting from, any carryforward of net operating losses or other losses, credits or other Tax attributes arising in a Pre-Closing
Tax Period to another Pre-Closing Tax Period or, in the case of a refund of Taxes for a Straddle Period, the use of the amount of any such net operating losses, other losses, credits or other Tax attributes in a Pre-Closing Tax Period as determined
pursuant to the methodologies set forth in Section 5.6(g) (in each case, other than (x) a refund attributable to, or resulting from, any carryback of net operating losses or other losses, credits or other Tax attributes arising in a
Post-Closing Tax Period or, in the case of a refund of Taxes for a Straddle Period, the use of the amount of any such net operating losses, other losses, credits or other Tax attributes in a Post-Closing Tax Period as determined pursuant to the
methodologies set forth in Section 5.6(g) and (y) any refund reflected in the Target Net Working Capital or the Closing Date Net Working Capital), Buyer shall promptly pay an amount equal to such refund to Parent, less any
out-of-pocket reasonable costs or any Taxes incurred by Buyer or the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as the result of the receipt of such Tax refund. The net amount due to Parent shall be payable ten (10) days after receipt of the refund
from the applicable Governmental Authority (or, if the refund is in the form of direct credit, ten (10) days after filing the Tax Return claiming such credit). The amount of any other refund or Tax Benefit of the Company and any of its
Subsidiaries shall be for the account of Buyer.

are payable with respect to any Straddle Period, the portion of any such Taxes that are treated as taxes of the Company or such Subsidiaries for a Pre-Closing Tax Period for purposes of this Agreement shall be: 

(i) in the case of Taxes based upon, or related to, income, receipts, sales, or payroll, deemed equal to the amount which would
be payable if the taxable year ended with the Closing Date; and 
 (ii) in the case of other Taxes, deemed to be the amount
of such Taxes for the entire period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire period. 

(h) After the date hereof, neither Parent nor the Representative shall file, or cause or permit to be filed, any entity
classification elections pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 301.7701-3(c) with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

future year, or a past year).

indemnification with respect to Taxes shall be governed exclusively by this Section 5.6 and Sections 9.1, 9.5(d)(i), 9.5(d)(iii) and 9.5(d)(iv), and (ii) the provisions of Article 9 (other than
Sections 9.1, 9.5(d)(i), 9.5(d)(iii)) and 9.5(d)(iv)) shall not apply.

if the Indemnity Escrow Deposit at any time during the pendency of such Tax Proceeding (less an amount in cash equal to the sum of any amounts subject to any other outstanding claims made by any Buyer Indemnitees pursuant to Article 9 or
Section 5.6 that have not been finally determined in accordance with Article 9 or Section 5.6) are reasonably expected to be insufficient to pay any amount of the Tax claimed by the relevant Governmental Entity to be

9. INDEMNIFICATION 
 9.1
Survival. Subject to the limitations and other provisions of this Agreement, the representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the Closing and shall remain in full force and effect until the date that is eighteen
(18) months from the Closing Date. For the avoidance of doubt, any claims for indemnification under Section 9.2 or Section 9.3 must be brought on or before the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the Closing Date.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any claims asserted in good faith with reasonable specificity (to the extent known at such time) and in writing by notice from the non-breaching Party to the breaching Party prior to the expiration date of the
applicable survival period shall not thereafter be barred by the expiration of the relevant representation or warranty and such claims shall survive until finally resolved. 

9.2 Indemnification by Parent. Subject to the other terms and conditions of this Article 9, after the Closing, Parent shall
indemnify, defend and reimburse each of Buyer and its Affiliates (including the Company and its Subsidiaries) and their respective Representatives (collectively, the “Buyer Indemnitees”) against, and shall hold each of them harmless
from and against any and all Losses incurred or sustained by, or imposed upon, the Buyer Indemnitees based upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason of: 

(a) any breach of any representation or warranty of Parent contained in this Agreement, as of the date of such representation
or warranty was made or as if such representation or warranty was made on and as of the Closing Date (except for representations and warranties that expressly relate to a specified date, the breach of which will be determined with reference to such
specified date); or 
 (b) any breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation to be performed by Parent pursuant to this
Agreement. 
 9.3 Indemnification by Buyer. Subject to the other terms and conditions of this Article 9, after the Closing,
Buyer shall indemnify, defend and reimburse each of Parent and its Affiliates and their respective Representatives (collectively, the “Parent Indemnitees”) against, and shall hold each of them harmless from and against any and all
Losses incurred or sustained by, or imposed upon, the Parent Indemnitees based upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason of: 

(a) any breach of any representation or warranty of Buyer contained in this Agreement, as of the date of such representation or
warranty was made or as if such representation or warranty was made on and as of the Closing Date (except for representations and warranties that expressly relate to a specified date, the breach of which will be determined with reference to such
specified date); or 

  
 51 

 (b) any breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation to be performed by Buyer
pursuant to this Agreement. 
 9.4 Certain Limitations. The indemnification obligations provided for in Section 9.2 and
Section 9.3 shall be subject to the following limitations: 
 (a) Parent shall not be liable to the Buyer
Indemnitees for indemnification under Section 9.2(a) until the aggregate amount of all Losses in respect of indemnification under Section 9.2(a) exceeds the amount equal to $4,000,000 (the “Basket”), in which
event Parent shall have liability only for the amount of such excess. The aggregate amount of all Losses for which Parent shall be liable pursuant to Section 9.2 shall be limited in the aggregate to the Indemnification Escrow Amount then
remaining in the Indemnification Escrow Account at the time of any claim thereunder. With respect to any claim as to which the Buyer Indemnitees may be entitled to indemnification under Section 9.2(a), Parent shall not be liable for any
Loss unless it exceeds, individually or together with all Losses resulting from the same or series of related facts, events or circumstances, $50,000. 

(b) Buyer shall not be liable to the Parent Indemnitees for indemnification under Section 9.3(a) until the
aggregate amount of all Losses in respect of indemnification under Section 9.3(a) exceeds the Basket, in which event Buyer shall have liability only for the amount of such excess. The aggregate amount of all Losses for which Buyer shall
be liable pursuant to Section 9.3 shall not exceed $30,000,000. With respect to any claim as to which the Parent Indemnitees may be entitled to indemnification under Section 9.3(a), Buyer shall not be liable for any Loss
unless it exceeds, individually or together with all Losses resulting from the same or series of related facts, events or circumstances, $50,000. 

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the limitations set forth in the first sentence of each of Section 9.4(a) and
9.4(b) this shall not apply to Losses based upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason of any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty in Section 3.1(a), Section 3.1(b),
Section 3.1(d), Section 3.1(e), Section 3.1(g), Section 3.1(w), Section 3.2(a) and Section 3.2(g). 

(d) For purposes of calculating Losses under Article 9 arising from a breach of representation or warranty hereunder
(but not for purposes of determining whether a breach has occurred), any materiality or Material Adverse Effect qualifications contained therein shall be disregarded. 

(e) Parent shall not have any liability pursuant to Section 9.2 in respect of any item or any Losses to the extent
they have been reflected as a deduction in determining the Membership Interest Value hereunder or as otherwise reflected as a deduction in the calculation of Closing Date Net Working Capital as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.4.

  
 52 

 (f) No limitation in this Section 9.4 shall apply to any Losses with
respect to, resulting from or involving, fraud (with actual intent to deceive). For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 9.4 shall not apply with respect to Remediation Costs payable or reimbursable by Parent from the NDT Escrow Deposit
pursuant to Exhibit B. 
 9.5 Indemnification Procedures. The Party making a claim under this Article 9 is referred to
as the “Indemnified Party”, and the Party against whom such claims are asserted under this Article 9 is referred to as the “Indemnifying Party.” 

(a) Third Party Claims. If any Indemnified Party receives notice of the assertion or commencement of any Action made or
brought by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of a party to this Agreement or a Representative of the foregoing (a “Third Party Claim”) against such Indemnified Party with respect to which the
Indemnifying Party is obligated to provide indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than thirty (30) calendar days after
receipt of such notice of such Third Party Claim. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent (i) that the Indemnifying
Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure, (ii) as a result of such failure, the Indemnifying Party is deprived of its right to recover any payment under its applicable insurance coverage, or (iii) the Indemnifying Party
is otherwise adversely affected or damaged as a result of such failure to give timely notice. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Third Party Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence
thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume the defense of any Third Party Claim at the
Indemnifying Party’s expense and by the Indemnifying Party’s own counsel by providing written notice of such election to the Indemnified Party within forty-five (45) days of the Indemnifying Party’s receipt of written notice of
the Third Party Claim, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in good faith in such defense. In the event that the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, subject to Section 9.4(b), it shall have the right to
take such action as it deems necessary to avoid, dispute, defend, appeal or make counterclaims pertaining to any such Third Party Claim in the name and on behalf of the Indemnified Party, and the Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate
in the defense of any Third Party Claim with counsel selected by it subject to the Indemnifying Party’s right to control the defense thereof. The fees and disbursements of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party,
provided, that if in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Indemnified Party, (A) there are legal defenses available to an Indemnified Party that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party; or
(B) there exists a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party that cannot be waived, the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified

  
 53 

 
Party in each jurisdiction for which the Indemnified Party determines counsel is required. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to defend such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may, in
good faith and subject to Section 9.4(b), defend such Third Party Claim and seek indemnification for any and all Losses based upon, arising from or relating to such Third Party Claim, and the Indemnifying Party shall have the right at
its expense to participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim, assisted by counsel of its own choosing. Parent and Buyer shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any Third Party Claim,
including making available (subject to the provisions of Section 5.4) records relating to such Third Party Claim and furnishing, without expense (other than reimbursement of actual out-of-pocket expenses) to the defending party,
management employees of the non-defending party as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of such Third Party Claim. 

(b) Settlement of Third Party Claims. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, except as provided in this
Section 9.4(b) the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into settlement of any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If a firm offer is
made to settle a Third Party Claim without leading to liability or the creation of a financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party and provides, in customary form, for the unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all
liabilities and obligations in connection with such Third Party Claim and the Indemnifying Party desires to accept and agree to such offer, the Indemnifying Party shall give written notice to that effect to the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnified
Party fails to consent to such firm offer within ten days after its receipt of such notice, the Indemnified Party may continue to contest or defend such Third Party Claim and in such event, the maximum liability of the Indemnifying Party as to such
Third Party Claim shall not exceed the amount of such settlement offer. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer and also fails to assume defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may settle the Third Party Claim
upon the terms set forth in such firm offer to settle such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnified Party has assumed the defense pursuant to Section 9.4(a), it shall not agree to any settlement without the written consent of the
Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). 
 (c) Direct Claims. Any Action by
an Indemnified Party on account of a Loss that does not result from a Third Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”) shall be asserted by the Indemnified Party giving the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any
event not later than thirty (30) days after the Indemnified Party becomes aware of such Direct Claim. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except
and only to the extent (i) that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure, (ii) as a result of such failure, the Indemnifying Party is deprived of its right to recover any payment under its applicable
insurance coverage, or (iii) the Indemnifying Party is otherwise adversely affected or damaged as a result of such failure to give timely notice. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Direct Claim in reasonable detail, shall
include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have

  
 54 

 
thirty (30) days after its receipt of such notice to respond in writing to such Direct Claim. If the Indemnifying Party does not so respond within such thirty (30) day period, the
Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have rejected such claim, in which case the Indemnified Party shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to the Indemnified Party on the terms and subject to the provisions of this Agreement. 

(d) General. 

(i) From and after the Closing, the Indemnification Escrow Deposit shall serve as security for Parent’s indemnification
obligations set forth in this Article 9 and Section 5.6, and except with respect to (x) injunctive relief (including specific performance) if available under applicable Law with respect to any covenant or agreement contained
in this Agreement or (y) any other remedy available at law or in equity for any fraud (with actual intent to deceive), the Indemnification Escrow Amount shall (in the case of Section 5.6, with respect to Taxes of the Company and its
Subsidiaries) be the sole and exclusive source of recovery for Buyer for any claim (whether such claim is framed in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement in this Agreement. 

(ii) Each Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any Losses in connection with this Agreement and the
Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts (which shall not include any obligation to bring legal action) to seek recovery under all insurance policies with respect to any Losses (with any cost and expense of the foregoing being
included as Losses). The amount which the Indemnifying Party is or may be required to pay to any Indemnified Party pursuant to this Article 9 shall be reduced (retroactively, if necessary) by any insurance proceeds or other amounts actually
recovered by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party in reduction of the related Losses, net of any deductibles or other expenses incurred in connection therewith. If an Indemnified Party shall have received the payment required by this Agreement
from the Indemnifying Party in respect of Losses and shall subsequently receive insurance proceeds or other amounts in respect of such Losses, then such Indemnified Party shall promptly repay to the Indemnifying Party a sum equal to the amount of
such net insurance proceeds or other net amounts actually received. 
 (iii) The indemnification provided in this Article
9 and Section 5.6 shall be the exclusive post-Closing remedy available to any Party hereto with respect to any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement in this Agreement, or otherwise in respect of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, that this Section 9.5(d)(iii) shall not prohibit (a) injunctive relief (including specific performance) if available under applicable Law with respect to any covenant or
agreement contained in this Agreement or (b) any other remedy available at law or in equity for any fraud (with actual intent to deceive). 

  
 55 

 (iv) The payment required by this Agreement from the Indemnifying Party with
respect to Losses shall be (A) reduced by the value of any Tax Benefit actually realized in cash (or resulting in an actual reduction of current cash taxes payable) by the Indemnified Party, its Subsidiaries and/or any of its Affiliates as a
result of incurring such Losses to the extent such Tax Benefit is so realized in the year such Loss is incurred (such Tax Benefit a “Covered Tax Benefit”) and (B) increased by the amount of any Taxes incurred by the Indemnified Party,
its Subsidiaries and/or any of its Affiliates as a result of such payment in the year such payment is made or accrued. To the extent the Indemnified Party, its Subsidiaries and/or any of their respective Affiliates realize a Covered Tax Benefit
and such Covered Tax Benefit was not included in the computation of the Losses, the Indemnified Party shall within ten (10) days of actually realizing the Covered Tax Benefit in cash pay over to the Indemnifying Party the amount of such Covered
Tax Benefit.
 (v) Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 9.5 shall not apply with respect to Remediation
Costs payable or reimbursable by Parent from the NDT Escrow Deposit, which shall be subject to the terms and limitations set forth in Exhibit B. 

10. TERMINATION 
 10.1
General. Prior to Closing, this Agreement may be terminated, and the transactions contemplated hereby may be abandoned, as follows (and only as follows): 

(a) by the written agreement of Buyer and Parent; 

(b) by Buyer or Parent if the Closing shall not have occurred on or prior to July 3, 2015 or such other date as Buyer and
Parent shall agree in writing (the “Termination Date”); provided, however, that if a Party seeking termination pursuant to this subclause (b) is in breach of any of its representations, warranties or covenants set forth
in this Agreement and such breach would allow the other Party to refuse to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement due to the condition set forth in Section 6.1, Section 6.2, Section 7.1 or
Section 7.2 (as applicable), then that Party may not terminate this Agreement pursuant to this subclause (b); 

(c) by Buyer providing written notice to Parent if there has been a breach of the representations and warranties or covenants
and agreements by Parent set forth in this Agreement, which would result in the failure of the conditions set forth in Sections 6.1 or 6.2 to be satisfied (but not waived) (so long as Buyer has provided Parent with written notice of
such breach and the breach has continued without cure until the earliest to occur of (i) ten (10) days following the date of such notice of breach and (ii) the Termination Date); 

  
 56 

 (d) by Parent, providing written notice to Buyer if there has been a breach of
the representations and warranties or covenants and agreements by Buyer set forth in this Agreement, which would result in the failure of the conditions set forth in Sections 7.1 or 7.2 to be satisfied (but not waived) (so long as Parent has
provided Buyer with written notice of such breach and the breach has continued without cure until the earliest to occur of (i) ten (10) days following the date of such notice of breach and (ii) the Termination Date); or 

(e) by Buyer or Parent if any Governmental Entity having competent jurisdiction shall have enacted, issued, promulgated,
enforced or entered any Law or Order, or refused to grant any required consent or approval, that has the effect of making the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement illegal or that otherwise prohibits the consummation of
such transactions and such Order or other action shall have become final and non-appealable; provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.1(e) shall not be available to a Party if such Order
or other action was primarily due to the failure of such Party to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement. 
 10.2
Post-Termination Obligations. To terminate this Agreement as provided in Section 10.1(b), (c), (d) or (e), the terminating Party shall provide the other Party with written notice of its election to
terminate this Agreement. Upon delivery of such written notice in accordance with Section 11.10 or a written agreement of Buyer and Parent to terminate this Agreement as provided in subclause (a) of Section 10.1: 

(a) the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be terminated, without further action by any Party; 

(b) Buyer shall return or destroy all documents and other materials relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
received from or on behalf of Parent or the Company (and all copies thereof), whether so obtained before, on or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement, to the Company in accordance with, and in the manner prescribed by, the
Confidentiality Agreement; and 
 (c) all confidential information relating to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, Parent
or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement received or accumulated by Buyer or its Representatives from Parent, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their Representatives shall be treated as “Evaluation Material” in
accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement (as supplemented by this Agreement), which shall remain in full force and effect, as supplemented by this Agreement, notwithstanding the termination of this Agreement. 

10.3 No Liabilities in Event of Termination. If this Agreement is terminated as provided in Section 10.1, then this
Agreement shall forthwith become wholly void and of no further force and effect, and there shall be no liability under this Agreement on the part of the Parties, except that the respective obligations of the Parties under Section 4.1(c)
and the provisions of Section 10.2 and Article 11 (and the Confidentiality Agreement) shall remain in full force and effect; provided, however, that termination shall not relieve either Party from liabilities for damages incurred
or suffered by the other Party as a result of any willful and material breach prior to such termination of any of such Party’s representations, warranties or covenants set forth in this Agreement. 

  
 57 

 11. MISCELLANEOUS 

11.1 Further Assurances. From time to time after the date of this Agreement, upon request and without further consideration, each Party
shall execute and deliver to the requesting Party such documents and take such action as the requesting Party reasonably requests to consummate more effectively the intent and purpose of the Parties under this Agreement and the transactions
contemplated hereby. 
 11.2 Publicity. The Parties agree that no public release or announcement relating to the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement shall be issued or made by or on behalf of a Party or any of its Affiliates without the prior written consent of Buyer and Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), except
(a) as such release or announcement may, in the reasonable judgment of the releasing Party, be required by Law or any rule or regulation of any United States securities exchange on which securities of the releasing Party are listed, in which
case the Party required to make the release or announcement shall use commercially reasonable efforts to allow the other Party reasonable time to comment on such release or announcement in advance of such issuance, and (b) that Parent may cause
the Company and its Subsidiaries, and Buyer may and may cause its Subsidiaries, to make such announcements to their respective employees. The Parties agree to keep the terms of this Agreement confidential, except to the extent required by applicable
Law or any rule or regulation of any United States securities exchange on which securities of the releasing Party are listed or for financial reporting purposes and except that (i) the Parties may disclose such terms to their respective
accountants and other Representatives as necessary in connection with the ordinary conduct of their respective businesses (so long as such Persons keep the terms of this Agreement confidential as contemplated above) and (ii) Buyer may disclose
such terms as reasonably required in connection with its financing arrangements. Parent and Buyer agree that the initial press release to be issued in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby shall be in a form mutually agreed by them.

 11.3 Specific Performance. Each of the Parties hereto acknowledges that the rights of each party to consummate the transactions
contemplated hereby are unique and recognize and affirm that in the event of a breach of this Agreement by any party, money damages would be inadequate and the non-breaching party would have no adequate remedy at law. Accordingly, the parties agree
that such non-breaching party shall have the right, in addition to any other rights and remedies existing in their favor at law or in equity, to enforce their rights and the other party’s obligations 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 (without posting of bond or other security). 

  
 58 

 11.4 Entire Agreement; Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement (including its exhibits
and schedules, including the Disclosure Schedule) and the Confidentiality Agreement supersede all prior agreements, and constitute (together with the other documents and instruments to be executed and delivered pursuant hereto) a complete and
exclusive statement of the terms of the agreement, between the Parties with respect to its subject matter. There have been and are no representations, warranties or covenants relating to the subject matters of this Agreement between the Parties
other than those set forth in this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any person other than the Parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns any right or remedy of
any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement other than (i) the rights of Indemnified Agents provided in Section 5.3 and (ii) as to the Debt Financing Sources, the provisions of this Section 11.4,
Section 11.5, Section 11.6, Section 11.7, Section 11.8, and the second paragraph of Section 11.14 (it being understood that the Debt Financing Sources shall be third-party beneficiaries of such
provisions and that such provisions may not be amended in a manner adverse to the Debt Financing Sources in any material respect without their prior written consent). 

11.5 Assignment. Neither Party shall assign, transfer or encumber this Agreement or its rights or obligations hereunder, whether in
whole or in part, without the prior written consent of the other Party, and any attempted assignment, transfer or encumbrance without such consent shall be void and without effect. Subject to the previous sentence, this Agreement shall be binding
upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Parties and their respective permitted successors and permitted assigns. 
 11.6
Governing Law and Language. This Agreement shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with the Laws of the State of Delaware, excluding any choice of law rules that may direct the application of the Laws of another jurisdiction. 

11.7 Consent to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. Each Party stipulates that any dispute or disagreement between the Parties as to the
interpretation of any provision of, or the performance of obligations under, this Agreement or the Debt Financing shall be commenced and prosecuted in its entirety exclusively in, and consents to the exclusive jurisdiction and proper venue of, the
U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware. Each Party consents to personal and subject matter jurisdiction and venue in such courts and waives and relinquishes all right to object to the suitability or convenience of such venue or forum by
reason of their present or future domiciles or by any other reason. The Parties acknowledge that all directions issued by the forum court, including all injunctions and other decrees, will be binding and enforceable in all jurisdictions. 

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each of the Parties agrees that it will not bring or support any Action of any kind or
description, whether in Law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise against the Debt Financing Sources and their respective current, former or future directors, officers, general or limited partners, stockholders, members,

  
 59 

 
managers, controlling persons, Affiliates, employees or Advisors in any way relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including any dispute arising out
of or relating any way to the Debt Financing or the performance thereof, in any forum other than the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York or, if under applicable law jurisdiction is vested in the federal courts, the United
States District Court for the Southern District of New York (and appellate courts thereof). 
 EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY
CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES AND, THEREFORE, EACH SUCH PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LEGAL ACTION
DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (A) NO REPRESENTATIVE OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED,
EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER IN THE EVENT OF A LEGAL ACTION, (B) SUCH PARTY HAS CONSIDERED AND UNDERSTANDS THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER, (C) SUCH PARTY MAKES THIS WAIVER
VOLUNTARILY AND (D) SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 11.7. 

11.8 Amendment. No amendments or supplements to this Agreement shall be valid and binding unless set forth in a written agreement
executed and delivered by Buyer and Parent (or, after the Closing, by Buyer and Representative). 
 11.9 Waiver. No waiver by a Party
of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be effective unless set forth in a written instrument executed and delivered by the Party so waiving. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, no action taken pursuant to this Agreement shall be
deemed to constitute a waiver by the Party taking such action of compliance with any representations, warranties or covenants set forth in this Agreement and in any documents delivered or to be delivered pursuant hereto. The waiver by a Party of a
breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach.
