Agreement Amendments, and under the Assumed Permits, in each case only to the extent (i) related to Subject Locations actually Transferred to Buyer at the Closing or the applicable Post-Closing Transfer and (ii) related to or arising out
of events or circumstances occurring after the applicable Assumption Time (but excluding any Liabilities under any Assumed Lease or Occupancy Agreement which are not set forth therein and that become due after the applicable Assumption Time but
arise out of or are based on or calculated on the basis of events or circumstances occurring prior to the applicable Assumption Time); 
  

 10 

 (b) all Liabilities accruing, arising out of, related to or resulting from the ownership, use, operations
or maintenance of the Improvements, F&E and Ground Lease Improvements after the applicable Assumption Time; 
 (c) all Liabilities for
Taxes relating to the ownership or operation of the Acquisition Assets after the applicable Assumption Time; and 
 (d) the items specified
on Schedule 2.3, to the extent they relate to the Acquisition Assets actually acquired by Buyer at the Closing or the applicable Post-Closing Transfer. 
 2.4 Excluded Liabilities. Other than the Assumed Liabilities, Buyer will not assume any Liability relating to or arising out of or in connection with the Excluded Business, or any other Liabilities of Seller or
Coffee People, including without limitation (the “Excluded Liabilities”): 
 (a) any Liability relating to or arising out of
or in connection with the Excluded Assets; or 
 (b) any Liability relating to or arising out of or in connection with the Excluded
Agreements, including but not limited to any termination, cancellation or similar fees, or other costs or damages, associated with Seller’s cancellation or termination of the Excluded Agreements or other services at the Subject Locations in
accordance with Section 5.1(d). 
 2.5 Determination of Subject Locations. Upon execution of this Agreement, Schedule
1.0 will contain an initial list of all Subject Locations, and the Purchase Price applicable to the Transfer of each Subject Location pursuant to this Agreement. Subject to the other provisions of this Section 2.5, prior to the
Closing or a Post-Closing Transfer, Buyer and Seller may mutually agree to delete Subject Locations from Schedule 1.0 (and appropriately adjust the Maximum Aggregate Purchase Price), provided, that Buyer may elect to delete a Subject
Location from Schedule 1.0 in the event that, prior to the applicable Assumption Time such Subject Location is adversely affected by fire, flood, earthquake or other force majeure that causes the physical condition of such Subject Location to
be substantially different from the condition of such Subject Location prior to such event. The aggregate Purchase Price for (i) all Subject Locations not designated on Schedule 1.0 as having a negative value (each, a “Negative
Value Subject Location”), prior to any deletions or adjustments pursuant to this Agreement, is $13,400,000 and (ii) the non-competition covenant set forth in Section 5.8(a) is $120,000 (the “Non-Competition
Amount”), for total maximum aggregate purchase consideration of $13,520,000 (the “Maximum Aggregate Purchase Price”), provided, that the Purchase Price applicable to a Subject Location actually Transferred to Buyer
will be increased by the amount of any Prepaid Items set forth on Schedule 2.1(c) attributable to such Subject Location, and provided, further, that Seller may elect to retain and not Transfer, at any time prior to the
Termination Date, any Subject Locations listed on Schedule 1.0 (i) designated under the column entitled “Transfer Premium Subject Location,” where the landlord does not waive or amend the 
  

 11 

 payment to the landlord of any consideration, or portion thereof, that Seller is entitled to receive from Buyer pursuant
to this Agreement and neither Seller nor Buyer agrees to make such payment to the landlord, (ii) that is a Negative Value Subject Location, or (iii) if the applicable landlord, in exchange for providing a Consent to Assignment of Lease or
a Lease and Agreement Amendment, requests any payment from Seller or Buyer (other than payments in respect of a Transfer Premium Subject Location, which are covered by (i) above) and neither Seller nor Buyer agrees to settle such payment with
the applicable landlord. If Seller elects to retain any Subject Location that is not a Negative Value Subject Location pursuant to this Section 2.5, then the Maximum Aggregate Purchase Price will be decreased by the amount of value
allocated to it in Schedule 1.0. If Seller elects to retain any Negative Value Subject Location, such election will have no effect on the Maximum Aggregate Purchase Price. If Seller elects to Transfer any Negative Value Subject Location, such
Transfer will have the effect of decreasing the Maximum Aggregate Purchase Price in accordance with the negative value attributed to such Negative Value Subject Location in Schedule 1.0. For the avoidance of doubt and by way of example only,
if Seller elects to Transfer to Buyer store number 1103 (the Costa Mesa store, having a value of ($85,000) (a negative value)) listed on Schedule 1.0 at the Closing, the aggregate Purchase Price payable for all Subject Locations transferred
to Buyer at the Closing will be reduced by $85,000. Buyer and Seller acknowledge and agree that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no Negative Value Subject Location will be Transferred to Buyer unless and until a number of
Subject Locations equal to the difference between (x) 25 and (y) the number of Subject Locations designated on Schedule 1.0 as Transfer Premium Subject Locations, have been Transferred to Buyer. 
 2.6 Purchase Price. At the Closing and at each Post-Closing Transfer, for each Subject Location Transferred at the applicable Assumption Time,
Buyer will (i) pay to Seller the amount set forth on Schedule 1.0 opposite each Subject Location (the amount set forth on Schedule 1.0 with respect to each Subject Location, the “Purchase Price”), plus an amount
equal to the Prepaid Items attributable to such Subject Location that is Transferred to Buyer and less the applicable portion of the Escrow Fund to be deposited with the Escrow Agent at the Closing or the Post-Closing Transfer and (ii) assume
the Assumed Liabilities relating to each Subject Location being Transferred at the Closing or a Post-Closing Transfer. At the Closing, Buyer will also pay the Non-Competition Amount (less the portion of the Non-Competition Amount contributed to the
Escrow Fund) to Seller. All payments to Seller at the Closing and any Post-Closing Transfer will be paid in accordance with wire transfer instructions provided in writing by Seller at least six (6) Business Days prior to the Closing or the
Post-Closing Transfer, as applicable. 
 2.7 Escrow. At the Closing and thereafter until the Release Date (the “Escrow
Period”), subject to the other provisions of this Agreement and the terms of the Escrow Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Escrow Agreement”), 10% of the total Purchase Price paid to Seller with respect to
Subject Locations (including any Prepaid Items and the Non-Competition Amount) transferred to Buyer at the Closing and any Post-Closing Transfer (the “Escrow Fund”) will be deposited with and held in escrow by Greater Bay Trust
Company (or other institution mutually selected by Buyer and Seller) as escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”) to secure the accuracy and full and timely performance of Seller’s representations, warranties, covenants and agreements,
and Seller’s other indemnity obligations under this Agreement. Seller’s indemnity obligations pursuant to this Agreement will be satisfied first from the Escrow 
  

 12 

 Fund to the extent the Escrow Fund is sufficient to do so, and thereafter Buyer may seek recovery from Seller directly.
Buyer and Seller will share equally in the payment of any fees to the Escrow Agent for the maintenance and administration of the Escrow Fund. 
 2.8 Employees. 
 (a) Subject to the Closing, Buyer will offer employment to all hourly non-management (below assistant store
manager level) store employees of Seller or Coffee People (as applicable) at each Subject Location actually Transferred to Buyer who are in good standing, without conducting employment interviews. Employees in “good standing” are those
whose most recent performance evaluations by Seller or Coffee People, as applicable, indicate performance at a satisfactory level or higher, and who are not former employees of Buyer identified on Buyer’s internal records as ineligible to be
rehired by Buyer. Buyer and Seller will mutually agree on a plan for Buyer to interview employees at the assistant store manager level and higher. Buyer is not obligated to hire any such management employees of Seller or Coffee People. Within ten
(10) Business Days after execution of this Agreement, Buyer and Seller will mutually agree on a plan to facilitate informational sessions for Seller’s or Coffee People’s employees who currently work at the Subject Locations. The
content of any such informational sessions will be at Buyer’s discretion, and at locations and times to be determined by Buyer. Seller is and will remain solely responsible for any pension, severance, bonus, overtime pay and other compensation,
benefits (including but not limited to workers’ compensation benefits), perquisites or payments incurred in connection with Seller’s or Coffee People’s termination of any of its employees, whether or not they are re-hired by Buyer,
including but not limited to accrued vacation, sick time, sick pay, personal leave and compensatory time, none of which will be assumed by Buyer. 
 (b) Seller will be responsible for any notice required under or obligations and/or liabilities associated with the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act (29 U.S.C. §§ 2101-2109), and any Applicable Law related to
any closings, mass layoff, relocation or severance associated with Seller’s or Coffee People’s employees, which takes place or arises on or before the Closing or the applicable Post-Closing Transfer, as applicable. 
 (c) Seller will be responsible for any group health plan continuation or conversion coverage required under Section 4980B of the Code, Part 6
of Title I of ERISA and the regulations thereunder, or Applicable Laws with respect to Seller’s or Coffee People’s employees due to a qualifying event occurring on or before the Closing or a Post-Closing Transfer, as applicable.

 2.9 Closing. 
 (a) The
closing (the “Closing”) of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will be held not later than the Termination Date, except as provided in this Section 2.9 and shall take place ninety (90) days after the
date of this Agreement (or if such date falls on a non-Business Day, the next Business Day) provided that the conditions to Closing set forth in Sections 6.1, 6.2 and 6.3 have been satisfied or waived, or on such other date that
the parties mutually agree, provided, further, that, if the Closing is to occur more than ninety (90) days after the date of this Agreement (or if such date falls on a non-Business Day, then the next 
  

 13 

 Business Day), Buyer must be in compliance with Section 5.13(b), as determined by Seller in its reasonable
discretion (the “Closing Date”). The Closing and each Post-Closing Transfer will be held at the offices of DLA Piper US LLP, 701 5th Avenue, Suite 7000, Seattle, WA 98104. Post-Closing Transfers may occur in accordance with
Section 6.5 hereof. 
 (b) Buyer may give written notice to Seller if Buyer deems the conditions to the Closing set forth in
Sections 6.3(b), 6.3(d) and 6.3(f) to have been satisfied or waived, or to be within Seller’s or Buyer’s control to satisfy at any time, (such notice, the “Pre-Closing Notification”). Delivery of the
Pre-Closing Notification by Buyer, and Seller’s receipt of such Pre-Closing Notification, serves a notice purpose only and will not constitute an acknowledgement by Buyer or Seller or give rise to any inference or estoppel on the part of Buyer
or Seller that any or all of the other Closing conditions have been satisfied in accordance with this Agreement. Buyer and Seller will exercise commercially reasonable efforts to close the Transfers contemplated therein within ten (10) Business
Days after Buyer gives such Pre-Closing Notification, if ever, subject to the provisions of Article 6 of this Agreement, provided, that the obligation to exercise commercially reasonable efforts will not apply with respect to the
Negative Value Subject Locations. 
 (c) At the Closing and at each Post-Closing Transfer, in addition to the documents to be delivered to
Buyer pursuant to Article 6, Seller shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Buyer: (i) physical possession of the F&E in connection with the Subject Locations being Transferred; (ii) executed assignments or transfers of the
Assumed Permits; (iii) an executed Bill of Sale, in the form attached as Exhibit B; and (iv) an executed Assignment and Assumption Agreement, in the form attached as Exhibit C. 
 (d) At the Closing and at each Post-Closing Transfer, in addition to the documents to be delivered to Seller pursuant to Article 6, Buyer shall
deliver or cause to be delivered to Seller (i) the Purchase Price applicable to the Subject Locations being Transferred minus the amount of the Escrow Fund, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, and (ii) the executed Assignment
and Assumption Agreement. In addition, Buyer shall deliver the Escrow Fund to the Escrow Agent at Closing.

required to perform Seller’s obligations under this Agreement, (i) timely and fully perform all of its obligations under each of the Assumed Leases and Occupancy Agreements and Assumed Agreements, unless in the good faith judgment of the

Proposal that are reasonably capable of being satisfied promptly, and (iii) is supported by financing that is then committed or for which Seller’s board of directors concludes in good faith is available.

with such persons and will direct such persons to treat such information in accordance with the terms of this Section. The obligations contained in this Section 5.4 will continue after the Closing and each Post-Closing Transfer.

 5.5 Access to Information and Subject Locations. To facilitate Buyer’s continued due diligence investigation for purposes of
this Agreement and to facilitate an efficient Closing and one or more Post-Closing Transfers, if applicable, Seller will, upon reasonable notice to Buyer, provide Buyer and its Representatives with reasonable access during normal business hours to

from time to time after the date hereof until the later to occur of the Closing or the last Post-Closing Transfer, as applicable, Buyer and its Representatives will have the right to access, inspect and examine all of the Subject
Locations, including the Improvements and F&E and other assets located thereon, at mutually convenient times, provided that Buyer and its Representatives shall not unreasonably disrupt operations during normal business hours at the Subject
Locations. Such access will include, but not be limited to, access for purposes of performing site surveys and other inspections reasonably necessary or appropriate to remodel, construct, identify, build-out and convert, as applicable, the

other in connection with any such filing. Each party will be responsible for all expenses and filing fees incurred by it in the preparation of its required filings. The parties will use commercially reasonable efforts to make such filings promptly,
to respond to any requests for additional information and to obtain all consents, waivers, approvals, authorizations and orders required in connection with the authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated
hereby.

an Affiliate) who was not solicited directly or indirectly by Seller or who responds to notices of employment published generally by or on behalf of Seller. 
 (c) If any court having jurisdiction at any time hereafter shall hold any provision or clause of this Section 5.8 to be unreasonable as to its scope, territory or term, and if such court in its judgment or
decree shall declare or determine that scope, territory or term that such court deems to be reasonable, then such scope, territory or term, as the case may be, shall be deemed automatically to have been reduced or modified to conform to that
declared or determined by such court to be reasonable.

 5.14 Environmental Assessment. 
 (a)
Not later than sixty (60) days after execution of this Agreement, Buyer may obtain a Phase I (the “Phase I”) environmental assessment of each of the Ground Lease Subject Locations by an environmental engineer selected by Buyer.
If, in Buyer’s reasonable judgment based on the findings and recommendations of any Phase I, Buyer determines that any further environmental assessment, including, but not limited to, a Phase II (the “Additional Assessment”) of
one or more of the Ground Lease Subject Locations is appropriate, Buyer shall be entitled, subject to the consent and approval of the owner of each Ground Lease Subject Location, to obtain an Additional Assessment on such Ground Lease Subject
Location or any portion thereof (the Phase I and the Additional Assessment, if obtained with respect to any Ground Lease Subject Location, shall each be referred to herein as an “Environmental Assessment”). If Buyer seeks to obtain
any Additional Assessment, the 60-day environmental review period referenced above shall be extended to be ninety (90) days from the date of execution of this Agreement (or if such date falls on a non-Business Day, then the period shall be
extended to the next Business Day). The Buyer shall commission and pay the cost of each such Environmental Assessment. 
 (b) If based upon
the Environmental Assessment, Buyer reasonably concludes that Hazardous Material exists at any portion of the Ground Lease Subject Locations in violation of applicable Environmental Law (an “Environmental Violation”), Buyer shall
deliver to Seller a copy of the Environmental Assessment indicating such Environmental Violation within the 60-day (or 90-day, if applicable) review period referenced above. Within ten (10) Business Days of receiving any such copy of an
Environmental Assessment indicating an Environmental Violation, Seller shall notify Buyer in writing if Seller will agree to remove, correct, or remedy any such Environmental Violation at Seller’s sole cost and expense prior to Closing and will
agree to provide Buyer, as a condition to Closing, a certificate from an environmental abatement firm reasonably acceptable to Buyer that any such Environmental Violation has been fully removed, corrected or remediated (or, at Buyer’s election
and cost, Buyer may require the environmental assessment firm that performed the original Environmental Assessment to provide a new environmental report showing that any previously identified conditions have been corrected). 
 (c) If Seller notifies Buyer that it will not correct or remedy any Environmental Violation prior to Closing, or fails to notify Buyer whether it will
correct or remedy any Environmental Violation within the ten (10) Business Day period referenced in Section 5.14(b), Buyer may elect to exclude the Ground Lease Subject Location that is affected by the Environmental Violation from
the Subject Locations to be acquired pursuant to this Agreement (with a corresponding reduction to the Maximum Aggregate Purchase Price), by providing Seller with written notice of such election within five (5) Business Days after receiving
Seller’s written notice of its election not to cure the Environmental Violation.

 31 

 Closing Transfer and except as provided below all such representations and warranties will survive the Closing for a
period ending six months after the Closing Date (the “Release Date”); provided, however, that the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.4 (No Consents), 3.8 (Tax Matters), 3.11
(Environmental Matters) and 3.15 (Employment Matters) will survive the Closing for a period ending three years after the Closing Date and that the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.2 (Authority Relative to
This Agreement), and 3.7 (Good Title to the Acquisition Assets) and 4.2 (Authority Relative to This Agreement), and any fraud or knowing or intentional breach of any representation or warranty, will survive the Closing and each
Post-Closing Transfer until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations. 
 7.2 Indemnification by Seller. Subject to the
limitations set forth in Section 7.4(a), Seller agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Buyer Group from, against, for and in respect of any and all Losses asserted against, imposed upon or incurred by any member of the Buyer
Group by reason of, resulting from, based upon, arising out of, or in connection with any of the following: 
 (a) the breach, or inaccuracy
(taking into account any applicable qualifications set forth in the text of such representation or warranty), of any representation or warranty of Seller contained in Article 3 of this Agreement or any certificate, schedule or Transaction
Document delivered by Seller in connection with this Agreement; 
 (b) the material breach or nonperformance of any covenant or agreement by
Seller or Coffee People contained in this Agreement or any certificate or Transaction Document delivered in connection with this Agreement; 
 (c) all causes of action, lawsuits, judgments, claims and demands of any nature arising out of or relating to the Excluded Business or the Excluded Assets; 
 (d) Seller’s failure to discharge the Excluded Liabilities; 
 (e) the termination or suspension of any
previous or existing discussions or negotiations with any third party with respect to the Acquisition Assets that were terminated or suspended or will be terminated or suspended as a result of this Agreement, whether or not the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement are consummated; and 
 (f) any breach by Seller of this Article 7. 
 7.3 Indemnification by Buyer. Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 7.4(b), Buyer agrees to indemnify, defend and hold
harmless Seller and its Representatives (the “Seller Group”) from, against, for and in respect of any and all Losses asserted against, imposed upon or incurred by any member of the Seller Group by reason of, resulting from, based
upon, arising out of, or in connection with any of the following: 
 (a) the breach of any representation or warranty of Buyer contained in
Article 4 or made pursuant to this Agreement or any certificate or Transaction Document delivered by Buyer in connection with this Agreement; 
  

 32 

 (b) the material breach or nonperformance of any covenant or agreement by Buyer contained in this
Agreement or any certificate or Transaction Document delivered in connection with this Agreement; 
 (c) Buyer’s failure to discharge
any Assumed Liabilities arising after their Assumption Date; and 
 (d) any breach by Buyer of this Article 7. 
 7.4 Procedure for Indemnification and Dispute Resolution. Each of the parties will follow the indemnification procedures set forth in this
Article 7. Any Buyer Loss, indemnity claim or other disputed amount will first be deducted from the Escrow Fund but exhaustion or payment of the Escrow Fund will not limit Buyer’s ability to pursue Seller directly. 
 (a) Seller’s Threshold and Cap Amount. Subject to the following sentence, in order to facilitate an efficient closing of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement, Buyer acknowledges and agrees that it will not seek indemnification for claims arising under Section 7.2(a) until the aggregate amount of all claims against Seller exceeds $100,000 (the
“Threshold”), in which event Seller will only be liable for such claims to the extent the Losses exceed the Threshold. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in no event will Seller’s aggregate
Liability arising out of its indemnification obligations under Section 7.2(a) exceed $2,000,000 (the “Seller’s Cap”); provided, however, that, with respect to the representations and warranties set
forth in Sections 3.2 (Authority Relative to This Agreement), 3.4 (No Consents), 3.7 (Good Title to the Acquisition Assets), 3.8 (Tax Matters), 3.11 (Environmental Matters), 3.15 (Employment Matters),
the covenants set forth in Sections 5.1(c) and 5.12 and any fraud or knowing or intentional breach of any representation and warranty, Seller will be liable from dollar one up to, but not in excess of, the sum of (x) the aggregate
Purchase Price actually received by Seller with respect to all Subject Locations Transferred to Buyer, (y) the Non-Competition Amount and (z) the amount of Prepaid Items transferred to Buyer. 
 (b) Buyer’s Threshold and Cap Amount. Subject to the following sentence, in order to facilitate an efficient closing of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement, Seller acknowledges and agrees that it will not seek indemnification for claims arising under this Section 7.3(a) until the aggregate amount of all claims against Buyer exceeds the Threshold, in which
event Buyer will be liable for such claims only to the extent the Losses exceed the Threshold. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in no event will Buyer’s aggregate Liability arising out of its indemnification
obligations under Section 7.3(a) exceed $2,000,000 (the “Buyer’s Cap”); provided, however, that, with respect to the representations and warranties in Section 4.2 (Authority Relative to
This Agreement), and any fraud or knowing or intentional breach of any representation and warranty, Buyer will be liable from dollar one, without regard to the Threshold or Buyer’s Cap. 
 (c) Escrow Period; Release From Escrow. 
 (i) The Escrow Period will terminate on the Release Date; provided, however, that all or a portion of the Escrow Fund, which, in the reasonable judgment of Buyer, is 
  

 33 

 necessary to satisfy any unsatisfied claims specified in any Claim Notice delivered to the Escrow Agent prior to the
Release Date with respect to facts and circumstances existing prior to expiration of the Escrow Period, will remain in the Escrow Fund and subject to the Escrow Agreement until such claims have been resolved. 
 (ii) Within three (3) Business Days after the Release Date, the Escrow Agent will release from escrow to Seller the Escrow Fund less the dollar
amount equal to (A) any portion of the Escrow Fund delivered to Buyer in accordance with Section 7.4(d) in satisfaction of resolved indemnification claims by Buyer and (B) any portion of the Escrow Fund withheld in accordance
with Section 7.4(c)(i) with respect to any pending but unresolved indemnification claims of Buyer. Any portion of the Escrow Fund held as a result of clause (B) will be released to Seller or delivered to Buyer (as appropriate)
promptly upon resolution of each specific indemnification claim involved. 
 (iii) The Escrow Agent is hereby granted the power to effect
any transfer of the Escrow Fund contemplated by this Agreement. 
 (d) Notice of Claim. The Indemnified Party will give written notice
to the Indemnifying Party of the existence and nature of any claims with respect to which indemnification is sought (and if Buyer is making a claim against the Escrow Fund, such notice will also be delivered to the Escrow Agent). Each such notice (a
“Claim Notice”) will be delivered reasonably promptly, but in any event (A) prior to expiration of any applicable survival period for such claim as specified in Section 7.1, (B) if the claim involves a claim
against the Escrow Fund, prior to the Release Date, and (C) if such claim relates to the assertion against the Indemnified Party of any claim by a third party (a “Third Party Claim”), within sixty (60) days after assertion
of such Third Party Claim, provided, that no failure or delay by the Indemnified Party to so notify the Indemnifying Party will reduce or otherwise affect the obligation of the Indemnifying Party to indemnify and hold the Indemnified Party
harmless, except to the extent the Indemnified Party’s failure to give or delay in giving the Claim Notice materially impairs the Indemnifying Party’s ability to perform its obligation to indemnify or defend or to mitigate its damages, in
which case the Indemnifying Party will have no obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party to the extent of Loss, if any, caused by such failure to give or delay in giving the Claim Notice. The Claim Notice must be accompanied by copies of all
relevant documentation, including but not limited to any summons, complaint or other pleading that may have been served or written demand or other instrument, and will specify in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances on which the asserted
claim is based, specify the amount of such claim if then ascertainable and, if not then ascertainable, the estimated amount thereof. Upon Buyer’s delivery to the Escrow Agent on or before the Release Date of a Claim Notice, the Escrow Agent
will, subject to the provisions of this Article 7, maintain cash in the Escrow Fund having a value equal to the amount set forth in the Claim Notice (or such lesser amount as then remains in the Escrow Fund) until resolution of the
indemnification claim. 
 (e) Objections to Claims. 
 (i) At the time of delivery of any Claim Notice from Buyer to the Escrow Agent, a duplicate copy of such Claim Notice will be delivered to Seller and for a period of thirty (30) days after such delivery, the
Escrow Agent will make no delivery of the Escrow 
  

 34 

 Fund unless the Escrow Agent shall have received written authorization from Seller to make such delivery. After the
expiration of such thirty (30) day period, the Escrow Agent shall make delivery of the portion of the Escrow Fund in accordance with Section 7.4(d) hereof, provided, that no such payment may be made if Seller shall object in
a written statement to the claim made in the Claim Notice, and such statement has been delivered to the Escrow Agent and Buyer prior to the expiration of such thirty (30) day period. 
 (ii) In case Seller has timely objected in writing to any claim by Buyer made in any Claim Notice, Buyer will have thirty (30) days to respond in a
written statement to the objection of Seller. If after such thirty (30) day period there remains a dispute as to any claims made in any Claim Notice, Seller and Buyer will attempt in good faith for thirty (30) days to agree upon the rights
of the respective parties with respect to each of such claims. If Seller and Buyer should so agree, a memorandum setting forth such agreement will be prepared and signed by both parties and will be furnished to the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent
will be entitled to rely on any such memorandum and will distribute the cash from the Escrow Fund in accordance with the terms thereof. 
 (f) Resolution of Conflicts and Arbitration. If no agreement can be reached after good faith negotiation between the parties pursuant to Section 7.4(e)(ii), either party may, by written notice to the other, demand
arbitration of the matter. The Parties agree that such matters shall be submitted for binding arbitration and final resolution to the office of the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services (“JAMS”) located in Orange County,
California. In the event a matter is submitted to JAMS for resolution, the parties will either agree on a single arbitrator or JAMS will provide one through its procedures. The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with JAMS Streamlined
Arbitration Rules and Procedures, unless the Parties agree otherwise. The Parties agree that the arbitrator may award attorney’s fees and costs to the prevailing party. Unless and until re-allocated by the arbitrator, the Parties will share
evenly in the costs of arbitration. The decision of the arbitrator as to the validity and amount of any claim in such Claim Notice will be binding and conclusive upon the parties to this Agreement, and notwithstanding anything in Article 7
hereof, the Escrow Agent and the parties will be entitled to act in accordance with such decision and the Escrow Agent will be entitled to make or withhold payments out of the Escrow Fund in accordance therewith. 
 (g) Third Party Claims. Subject to Section 7.4(h), In the event that any Third Party Claim is brought against an Indemnified Party
with respect to which the Indemnifying Party may have liability under this Agreement, the Third Party Claim shall, upon the written agreement of the Indemnifying Party, be defended by the Indemnifying Party at its sole cost and expense by counsel
reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party and such defense shall include all appeals or reviews which counsel for the Indemnifying Party shall deem appropriate. For any such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to be
represented by advisory counsel and accountants, at its own expense, and the Indemnifying Party shall keep the Indemnified Party fully informed as to such proceeding at all stages thereof, whether or not the Indemnified Party is represented by its
own counsel. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to elect to settle any claim for monetary damages without the Indemnified Party’s consent only if the settlement includes a complete release of the Indemnified Party and no non-monetary
relief or other limitations that would apply to the Indemnified Party. If the settlement does not include such a release or does contain or provide for any such non-monetary relief or other limitations, it 
  

 35 

 will be subject to the consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld. The
Indemnifying Party may not admit any liability of the Indemnified Party or waive any of the Indemnified Party’s rights without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent. It shall not be deemed unreasonable to withhold consent to a
settlement involving injunctive or other non-monetary relief against the Indemnified Party or its assets, employees, business or methods of doing business. 
 (h) Non-Monetary Relief. If the claim set forth in the Claim Notice seeks injunctive or other non-monetary relief and could have an adverse effect on the Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party will have the
right, notwithstanding anything in this Article 7 to the contrary, to control the defense and settlement of such claim, at the risk and expense of the Indemnified Party. In such case, the Indemnifying Party will have the right fully to
participate in the defense at its sole cost and expense. 
 7.5 Remedies. The indemnification provisions of this Article 7
shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the parties following the Closing or any Post-Closing Transfer, including for any claims for the recovery of Losses, whether directly or by way of contribution, for any and all breaches or alleged breaches
of any representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of the parties or other provision of this Agreement or relating to the transactions contemplated hereby other than for claims of, or causes of action arising from fraud or knowing or
intentional breach of any representation or warranty. Under no circumstances shall any Indemnified Party be entitled to be indemnified for punitive or other similar damages. 
 ARTICLE 8 
 TERMINATION 
 8.1 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing: 
 (a) by mutual written consent of Buyer and Seller; 
 (b) by Buyer or by Seller if the other party materially breaches any of its representations, warranties or covenants contained in this Agreement and, if the breach is curable, the breach is not cured within ten (10) Business Days after
notice and a description in reasonable detail of the breach; 
 (c) by Buyer or by Seller if a court of competent jurisdiction or other
Governmental Entity issues a final and nonappealable order, decree or ruling, or takes any other action, having the effect of permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the transactions contemplated hereby; 
 (d) by Seller if (i) the Closing does not occur within ninety (90) days from the date of this Agreement (or if such date falls on a
non-Business Day, then the period shall end on the next Business Day) and Buyer has not complied with its obligations described in Section 5.13(b), as determined by Seller in its reasonable discretion or (ii) the board of directors
of Seller recommends and accepts a Transfer Proposal; 
 (e) by Buyer if (i) Seller provides non-public information to, or enters into
discussion with, any third party in accordance with Section 5.2(c), (ii) the board of directors of 
  

 36 

 Seller withdraws or modifies its recommendation of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby in a manner
adverse to Buyer or resolves to do any of the foregoing, (iii) the board of directors of Seller recommends, endorses, accepts or agrees to a Transfer Proposal, (iv) for any reason Seller fails to call and hold the Stockholder Meeting
within ninety (90) days after the date of this Agreement (or if such date falls on a non-Business Day, then the period shall end on the next Business Day), or (v) Seller fails to obtain the required vote of stockholders at the Stockholder
Meeting or at any adjournment thereof after public disclosure of a Transfer Proposal. 
 (f) by Buyer or by Seller if the Closing does not
occur within 150 days from the date of this Agreement (or if such date falls on a non-Business Day, then the period shall end on the next Business Day), except that neither Seller nor Buyer will have the right to terminate this Agreement
unilaterally if it has failed to use commercially reasonable efforts to fulfill the obligations set forth in Article 6 (except that neither Buyer nor Seller nor Coffee People shall have any obligation whatsoever pursuant to this Agreement or
otherwise to use commercially reasonable efforts with respect to any Negative Value Subject Locations) and such party’s failure to fulfill any of its obligations under this Agreement is the reason for the failure of the Closing to occur by the
Termination Date. 
 8.2 Effect of Termination. If this Agreement is terminated as provided in Section 8.1, the
obligations of the parties to complete the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will expire and neither party shall have any further obligations under this Agreement except as set forth in Section 5.3, Section 5.4,
Section 5.7, Section 8.2, Section 9.1, Section 9.2 and Section 9.3 of this Agreement, and except for Liability arising from a material breach of this Agreement.

issued pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement that are currently outstanding is hereby amended to mean June 30, 2010.
