AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER
This Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 5, 2013 (this “Agreement”), is entered into by and among Keystone Automotive Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), LKQ Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), KAH Acquisition Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), the undersigned stockholders of the Company (the “Stockholder Parties”), and Sphere Capital, LLC - Series A, a Delaware limited liability company, in its capacity as the representative of the Equityholders (the “Equityholders Representative”).  (Unless the context otherwise makes clear, capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in ARTICLE XI.)
BACKGROUND
A.    This Agreement constitutes an agreement of merger, as such term is used in Section 251(b) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”), providing for the merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation (the “Merger”) in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the DGCL, whereby each issued and outstanding share of capital stock of the Company will be converted into the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration.
B.    A special committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) has unanimously recommended that the Board approve this Agreement and declare its advisability to the Company and the Stockholders. 
C.    The Board has unanimously adopted resolutions (i) approving this Agreement and declaring its advisability, (ii) approving the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Merger, (iii) determining that the terms of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby are fair to, advisable and in the best interests of, the Company and the Stockholders, (iv) directing that this Agreement be submitted to the Stockholders for consideration for adoption or rejection and (v) recommending that the Stockholders adopt this Agreement.  
D.    The boards of directors of both Parent and Merger Sub have each unanimously adopted resolutions approving and declaring advisable this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Merger, and authorizing Parent and Merger Sub to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the Merger.
E.    The Company, Parent and Merger Sub desire to make certain representations, warranties and agreements in connection with the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby and prescribe various conditions to the Merger as provided herein.
AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the mutual representations, warranties and agreements contained herein, the Parties hereby agree as follows:

1

ARTICLE I 
THE MERGER

1.1.    The Merger.  At the Effective Time, and subject to and on the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the provisions of the DGCL, the Company and Merger Sub shall consummate the Merger pursuant to which: (a) Merger Sub shall be merged with and into the Company, the separate existence of Merger Sub shall cease, (b) the Company shall continue as the surviving corporation in the Merger (the “Surviving Corporation”) and shall continue to be governed by the applicable Laws of the State of Delaware, and (c) the separate corporate existence of the Company with all its properties, rights, privileges, powers, franchises and immunities, shall continue unaffected by the Merger. The Merger shall have the effects set forth in the applicable provisions of the DGCL. 
1.2.    Closing.  The closing (the “Closing”) of the Merger shall take place as promptly as practicable, but no later than three (3) Business Days, following the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in ARTICLE VII (other than conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions) at the offices of K&L Gates LLP, 70 West Madison Street, Chicago, Illinois or on such other date or place as shall be agreed in writing between the Company and Parent; provided that the Closing shall not take place earlier than January 3, 2014.  The date on which the Closing occurs is referred to in this Agreement as the “Closing Date.”
1.3.    Effective Time.  On the Closing Date, the Parties shall file with the Delaware Secretary of State a certificate of merger (the “Certificate of Merger”) duly executed in accordance with the relevant provisions of the DGCL and shall make all other filings or recordings required under the DGCL to give full effect to the Merger.  The Merger shall become effective at such time as the Certificate of Merger is duly filed with the Delaware Secretary of State, or at such later date and time as Parent and the Company shall agree and specify in the Certificate of Merger (the “Effective Time”).
1.4.    Effects of the Merger.  The Merger shall have the effects provided in this Agreement and in the applicable provisions of the DGCL.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, at the Effective Time, all of the properties, rights, privileges, powers, franchises and immunities of the Company and Merger Sub shall vest in the Surviving Corporation, and all debts, liabilities and duties of the Company and Merger Sub shall become the debts, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Corporation.
1.5.    Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws.  At the Effective Time, (a) the certificate of incorporation of Merger Sub, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter changed or amended as provided therein or by Applicable Law, except that the name of the Surviving Corporation shall continue to be Keystone Automotive Holdings, Inc. until amended in accordance with Applicable Law and (b) the bylaws of Merger Sub, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter changed or amended as provided therein or by Applicable Law, except that the name of the Surviving Corporation shall continue to be Keystone Automotive Holdings, Inc. until amended in accordance with Applicable Law.

2

1.6.    Directors and Officers.  The members of the board of directors of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall become the initial directors of the Surviving Corporation at the Effective Time, and the officers of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall become the initial officers of the Surviving Corporation at the Effective Time, in each case to hold office until their respective successors shall have been duly elected, designated or qualified, or until their earlier death, resignation or removal in accordance with the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation. The officers of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to be officers of the Company at the Effective Time. 
ARTICLE II 
EFFECT OF THE MERGER; MERGER CONSIDERATION

2.1.    Conversion of Company Shares.  At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Company or Merger Sub or on the part of any other Person:
(a)    Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.1(b) and Section 2.2, each share of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted automatically into and thereafter represent solely the right to receive the Initial Per Share Merger Consideration and the Subsequent Payments to be made with respect thereto as provided in Section 2.4(f) (all such amounts, taken together, the “Per Share Merger Consideration”).  From and after the Effective Time, all such shares of Common Stock shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and each holder of a certificate formerly representing any such shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration. 
(b)    Each share of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company and each share of Common Stock owned by Parent, or by any other direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Parent, immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be automatically canceled and retired and shall cease to exist and no payment or other consideration shall be made with respect thereto. 
(c)    Each share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Merger Sub that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted automatically into and become one share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Surviving Corporation, so that, at the Effective Time, Parent shall be the holder of all of the issued and outstanding shares of the Surviving Corporation’s common stock.
2.2.    Dissenting Shares.  Shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by a holder who has not voted in favor of the Merger or consented thereto in writing and who has demanded appraisal for such shares in accordance with the DGCL (“Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into a right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration but instead shall be entitled to receive the fair value of such shares of Common Stock as may be determined to be due with respect to such Dissenting Shares pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL (and at the Effective Time, such Dissenting Shares shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist and such holder shall

 

3

cease to have any rights with respect thereto except the rights set forth in Section 262 of the DGCL), unless and until such holder fails to perfect, withdraws or otherwise loses such holder’s right to appraisal under the DGCL.  If, after the Effective Time, such holder fails to perfect, withdraws or otherwise loses such holder’s right to appraisal, each such share of Common Stock shall be treated as if it had been converted at the Effective Time into the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration as and when provided in Section 2.1(a), without any interest thereon.  The Company shall give Parent (a) prompt notice of (i) any demands for appraisal pursuant to the DGCL received by the Company, but in any event not later than one (1) day after such demand is received by the Company, (ii) withdrawals of such demands, and (iii) any other instruments served pursuant to the DGCL and received by the Company in connection with such demands, and (b) the opportunity to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to demands for appraisal under the DGCL prior to the Effective Time.  The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent or as otherwise required by Applicable Law, make any payment with respect to any such demands for appraisal or offer to settle or settle any such demands without Parent’s prior written consent.
2.3.    Treatment of Stock Options; Restricted Stock; and Restricted Stock Units.  
(a)    Treatment of Stock Options. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall cause each Stock Option that has not expired and is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time to become or otherwise be deemed fully vested at such time and to be canceled and converted at the Effective Time into the right to receive payment of the Initial Stock Option Cancellation Payment and the Subsequent Payments to be made with respect thereto as provided in Section 2.4(f).   
(b)    Treatment of Restricted Stock.  Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall cause each share of Restricted Stock that is unvested and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time to become or otherwise be deemed fully vested Common Stock at such time and, accordingly, each such share shall be converted automatically into and thereafter represent solely the right to receive the Initial Per Share Merger Consideration and the Subsequent Payments with respect thereto as provided in Section 2.4(f).  
(c)    Treatment of Restricted Stock Units.  Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall cause each Restricted Stock Unit that is unvested and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time to become or otherwise be deemed fully vested at such time and to be canceled and converted at the Effective Time into the right to receive payment of the Initial Per Share Merger Consideration and the Subsequent Payments with respect thereto as provided in Section 2.4(f).   
(d)    Company Equity Incentive Plan. After the Effective Time, the Company Equity Incentive Plan shall be terminated and no further Stock Options, shares of Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, or other rights with respect to Common Stock shall be granted thereunder.  

4

2.4.    Payments to the Equityholders.  
(a)    Prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall distribute to each Stockholder of record (including holders of Restricted Stock) a customary letter of transmittal in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Parent (the “Letter of Transmittal”) for use in surrendering the Certificates evidencing the shares of Common Stock held by such Stockholder (or in lieu thereof an Affidavit of Loss as provided in Section 2.4(d)) in exchange for the payments provided for in this Agreement.  
(b)    Each Stockholder who has, prior to the Effective Time, properly completed, executed and delivered to the Company a Letter of Transmittal and the Certificate(s) evidencing such Stockholder’s shares of Common Stock (or an Affidavit of Loss in lieu thereof) shall be entitled to receive from Parent on the Closing Date, and Parent shall pay to such Stockholder on the Closing Date, an amount equal to the Initial Per Share Merger Consideration multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock represented by the Certificate surrendered (or referred to in the Affidavit of Loss delivered in lieu thereof), such payments to be made by check or by wire transfer as requested by such Stockholder in the Letter of Transmittal delivered by such Stockholder; provided, however, that with respect to the holders of Restricted Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time, such payments shall be made through the Company’s or its applicable Subsidiary’s payroll account as provided in Section 2.4(e).  
(c)    With respect to any Stockholder who has not properly completed, executed and delivered a Letter of Transmittal to the Company prior to the Effective Time, or who has failed to deliver the Certificate(s) evidencing such Stockholder’s shares of Common Stock (or an Affidavit of Loss in lieu thereof), Parent shall pay to the Equityholders Representative at the Closing an amount equal to the Initial Per Share Merger Consideration multiplied by the total number of shares of Common Stock held by all such Stockholders (other than Dissenting Shares), such funds to be held by the Equityholders Representative (subject to applicable abandoned property, escheat and similar Laws) for further payment to each such Stockholder when and as such Stockholder delivers a properly completed and executed Letter of Transmittal and the Certificate(s) evidencing such Stockholder’s shares of Common Stock (or an Affidavit of Loss in lieu thereof) to the Equityholders Representative (who shall promptly thereafter deliver such documents to Parent), at which time such Stockholder shall be entitled to receive from the funds held by the Equityholders Representative the same amount (payable in the same manner, except with respect to shares of Restricted Stock, which shall be payable as provided in Section 2.4(e)) as such Stockholder would have received from Parent under Section 2.4(b) if such Letter of Transmittal and Certificate(s) (or Affidavit of Loss in lieu thereof) had been delivered to the Company prior to the Effective Time.  
(d)    If any Certificate which formerly represented shares of Common Stock held by any Stockholder shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, such Stockholder may, in lieu of delivering such Certificate with the Letter of Transmittal delivered in accordance with Section 2.4(b) or Section 2.4(c), complete, execute and deliver an affidavit of loss in form reasonably satisfactory to Parent, including customary indemnity provisions (an “Affidavit of Loss”).
(e)    As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, but in any event not later than the first regular payroll that occurs not earlier than three (3) Business Days 

5

following the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall pay through the Company’s or its applicable Subsidiary’s payroll account, in accordance with its regular payroll practices (and subject to all applicable payroll Taxes and withholding Taxes) to (i) each former holder of a Stock Option who has delivered an Option Consent Agreement, the Initial Stock Option Cancellation Payment, (ii) each holder of Restricted Stock, the portion of the Unpaid Class B Dividends specified by the Company not less than three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, (iii) each applicable Employee, the amount of Transaction Expenses specified by the Company for such Employee not less than three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, and (iv) each former holder of shares of Restricted Stock and each former holder of Restricted Stock Units who has delivered a Restricted Stock Unit Consent Agreement an amount in cash equal to the Initial Per Share Merger Consideration multiplied by the number of outstanding shares of Restricted Stock (or number of Restricted Stock Units) held by such holder of Restricted Stock (or Restricted Stock Units) immediately prior to the Effective Time.  The Company has accrued, or shall prior to the Closing accrue, all applicable employer payroll Taxes and withholding Taxes payable by the Company in connection with the cash distributions set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) of this Section 2.4(e).  
(f)    In addition to the payments to be made to the Equityholders as provided above, the Equityholders shall also be entitled to receive, subject to Section 12.1(b), the Subsequent Payments from the Equityholders Representative in accordance with their respective Equity Ownership Percentages.  The foregoing notwithstanding, to the extent required by applicable Law, the Surviving Corporation shall, upon request of the Equityholders Representative, facilitate the payment of any Subsequent Payments to be made to former holders of Stock Options, shares of Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units, through its or its applicable Subsidiary’s payroll account, subject to all applicable payroll Taxes and withholding Taxes, in which case, the Equityholders Representative shall reimburse the Surviving Corporation for the employer portion of any applicable payroll Taxes in connection with the foregoing payments.
(g)    In no event shall any Equityholder be entitled to receive interest on any of the funds to be received in connection with the Merger.
2.5.    Other Payments by Parent at Closing.  On the Closing Date, Parent shall deliver the executed Promissory Note to the Equityholders Representative and shall make the following payments by wire transfer of immediately available funds:
(a)    on the Company’s behalf, to the appropriate third parties the aggregate amount necessary to repay in full all Closing Bank Debt as set forth in the Payoff Letters, such payments to be remitted to the accounts and in the amounts specified in the Payoff Letters;
(b)    on the Company’s behalf, to the appropriate third parties, the aggregate amount necessary to pay the Transaction Expenses (other than Transaction Expenses payable to Employees) that shall have been determined as of the Closing, such payments to be remitted to the accounts and in the amounts specified by the Company not less than three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date;

2.6.    Closing Net Working Capital and Net Closing Cash Adjustments.  
(a)    No less than four (4) Business Days prior to the anticipated Closing Date, the Company shall prepare and deliver to Parent a statement (the “Estimated Statement”), duly executed by the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, setting forth in reasonable detail the Company’s good faith estimate of the Closing Net Working Capital as of the anticipated Closing Date (the “Estimated Closing Net Working Capital”) and of the Net Closing Cash as of the anticipated Closing Date (the “Estimated Closing Cash”). The Estimated Statement shall be based on the books and records of the Company and its Subsidiaries, and shall be prepared in good faith and in accordance with the Accounting Conventions.    
(b)    Within seventy-five (75) days after the Closing Date, Parent shall prepare and deliver to the Equityholders Representative a statement (the “Closing Statement”) setting forth Parent’s determination of Closing Net Working Capital and Net Closing Cash showing in reasonable detail any and all changes reflected therein from the amounts reflected in the Estimated Statement of Estimated Closing Net Working Capital and Estimated Closing Cash 

7

delivered pursuant to Section 2.6(a).  The Closing Statement shall be based on the books and records of the Company and its Subsidiaries and shall be prepared in good faith and in accordance with the Accounting Conventions.  
(c)    The Closing Statement shall be final and binding on the Parties unless the Equityholders Representative, on behalf of the Equityholders, delivers to Parent a written notice of disagreement with the Closing Statement within seventy-five (75) days following the receipt thereof.  Such written notice shall describe the nature of any such disagreement in reasonable detail, identifying the specific items as to which the Equityholders Representative disagrees and shall be accompanied by reasonable supporting documentation.  During such seventy-five (75) day period, Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to provide the Equityholders Representative and the Equityholders Representative’s advisors with on-site access and access via telephone and e-mail communications and transmissions during regular business hours and upon reasonable notice to all relevant books and records and employees (including key accounting and finance personnel) of the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to the extent necessary to review the matters and information used to prepare and to support the Closing Statement, all in a manner not unreasonably interfering with the business of the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries and if and to the extent that such access is requested but not provided, such seventy-five (75) day review period shall be extended on a day-for-day basis for each full day that such access is requested but not provided.  If the Equityholders Representative delivers a notice of disagreement in a timely manner, then the Equityholders Representative, on behalf of the Equityholders, and Parent shall attempt to resolve all such matters identified in such notice.  If the Equityholders Representative and Parent are unable to resolve all such disagreements within thirty (30) days after the receipt by Parent of the notice of disagreement (or such longer period as may be agreed by Parent and the Equityholders Representative), then the remaining disputed matters shall be promptly submitted to the Accounting Arbitrator for binding resolution, and the Accounting Arbitrator shall be directed by Parent and the Equityholders Representative to resolve the unresolved objections as promptly as reasonably practicable.  The Accounting Arbitrator will consider only those items and amounts set forth on the Closing Statement as to which Parent and the Equityholders Representative have disagreed and shall resolve such disagreements in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement. The Accounting Arbitrator shall issue a written report containing a final Closing Statement setting forth its determination of Closing Net Working Capital and Net Closing Cash, which determination shall be final and binding upon Parent, the Surviving Corporation, the Equityholders Representative and the Equityholders.  Any upfront or other fees or expenses charged by the Accounting Arbitrator prior to the final determination shall be paid fifty percent (50%) by Parent and fifty percent (50%) by the Equityholders Representative, subject to the remaining provisions of this Section 2.6(c).  The final aggregate fees and expenses of the Accounting Arbitrator incurred in connection with the determination of the disputed items (including any upfront or other fees previously paid) shall be paid by Parent and by the Equityholders Representative (on behalf of the Equityholders, to be paid from the Representative Holdback Amount) based on the relative success of their positions as compared to the final determination of the Accounting Arbitrator.  By way of example, if Parent has taken the position that the Closing Net Working Capital was $1,000,000 less than the Estimated Closing Net Working Capital and the Equityholders Representative has taken the position that the Closing Net Working Capital was $500,000 greater than the Estimated Closing Net Working Capital (and the parties had otherwise agreed on Net Closing Cash) and the Accounting Arbitrator finally

8

determines that the Closing Net Working Capital was equal to the Estimated Closing Net Working Capital, then Parent shall ultimately pay two thirds (2/3) of the fees and expenses of the Accounting Arbitrator and the Equityholders Representative (on behalf of the Equityholders) shall ultimately pay one third (1/3) of the fees and expenses of the Accounting Arbitrator. To the extent either Parent or the Equityholders Representative has made payments to the Accounting Arbitrator in excess of the amount of fees and expenses ultimately determined to be payable by such Party, the other Party shall reimburse such first Party in an amount equal to such excess.  Parent and the Equityholders Representative shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, cooperate fully with the Accounting Arbitrator and respond on a timely basis to all requests for information or access to documents or personnel made by the Accounting Arbitrator, all with the intent to fairly and in good faith resolve all disputes relating to the Closing Statement as promptly as reasonably practicable.   
(d)    If the aggregate amount of Closing Net Working Capital plus Net Closing Cash as finally determined in accordance with Section 2.6(c) is less than the aggregate amount of Estimated Closing Net Working Capital plus Estimated Closing Cash, then the amount of such difference (the “WC Deficiency”) shall be paid in the following sequential manner: (i) to the extent there is a WC Estimated Surplus, the Equityholders Representative shall pay to Parent the WC Deficiency from the WC Estimated Surplus, and any remaining portion of the WC Estimated Surplus shall be paid to the Equityholders pursuant to Section 2.6(e); (ii) if the WC Deficiency exceeds the WC Estimated Surplus (if any) the amount of the Promissory Note shall be reduced by the amount of the difference between the WC Deficiency and the WC Estimated Surplus (if any) up to an amount equal to $1,500,000 (and the Surviving Corporation and Equityholders Representative shall amend the Promissory Note to reflect the reduced amount); (iii) to the extent the WC Deficiency exceeds the combined amount of the WC Estimated Surplus (if any) plus $1,500,000, then the Equityholders Representative shall pay to Parent from the remaining Representative Holdback Amount an amount in cash equal to such excess; and (iv) to the extent the WC Deficiency exceeds the combined amount of the WC Estimated Surplus (if any) plus $1,500,000 plus the remaining Representative Holdback Amount, then the Stockholder Parties shall pay (which obligation shall be on a several basis based on their respective Indemnity Pro Rata Share) to Parent an amount in cash equal to such excess. If the aggregate amount of Closing Net Working Capital plus Net Closing Cash as finally determined in accordance with Section 2.6(c) is greater than the aggregate amount of Estimated Closing Net Working Capital plus Estimated Closing Cash, then the amount of such difference shall be paid by Parent or the Surviving Corporation to the Equityholders Representative (for further payment to the Equityholders in accordance with Section 2.6(e)) and the Equityholders Representative shall distribute the WC Estimated Surplus to the Equityholders in accordance with Section 2.6(e).  Any payments required to be made pursuant to this Section 2.6(d) shall be made by wire transfer within five (5) Business Days after the final determination of Closing Net Working Capital and Net Closing Cash.
(e)    If Parent or the Surviving Corporation is obligated to make payments to the Equityholders Representative pursuant to Section 2.6(d), then, subject to Section 12.1(b), the Equityholders Representative shall disburse and pay the aggregate amount paid to it pursuant to Section 2.6(d) to the Equityholders in accordance with their respective Equity Ownership Percentages and, with respect to the Stockholders, the payment instructions set forth in their respective Letters of Transmittal.    

9

2.7.    Representative Holdback Amount and WC Estimated Surplus.
(a)    If and to the extent that any portion of the Representative Holdback Amount remains unspent at the time that the final payment is made under the Promissory Note, then, Subject to Section 12.1(b), the Equityholders Representative shall pay over such remaining portion of the Representative Holdback Amount at such time to the Equityholders in the same manner as if such funds were being paid from payments received under the Promissory Note. 
(b)    The Equityholders Representative shall retain the WC Estimated Surplus (if any) on behalf of the Equityholders and shall distribute the WC Estimated Surplus to the applicable parties pursuant to and in accordance with Section 2.6(d). 
2.8.    Tax Withholding.  Each of Parent, the Company, the Surviving Corporation and any applicable Subsidiary thereof, as applicable, shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts payable by it pursuant to this Agreement any withholding Taxes or other amounts required by Law to be deducted and withheld.  To the extent that any such amounts are so deducted or withheld, such amounts will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the person with respect to whom such deduction and withholding was made.  
2.9.    Tax Deductions.  It is the intent of the Parties that, to the extent permitted by applicable Tax Law, all income Tax deductions with respect to, or resulting from, the payment of any Transaction Expenses, the Initial Stock Option Cancellation Payments, the payments to the holders of Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units, the payment of the Closing Bank Debt at Closing (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any Tax deductions that may be available with respect to the acceleration of original issue discount, any deferred underwriting fees or expenses, any deferred sponsor transaction fees and any other deferred financing fees or costs in connection with the repayment of the Closing Bank Debt) and any payments to the former holders of Stock Options, shares of Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units in connection with the Closing shall be deducted by the Company in a Pre-Closing Tax Period.  The Company shall take all such deductions in the final Tax Returns of the Company for the Tax period ending on the Closing Date, and Parent shall not take any action, or permit the Surviving Corporation to take any action, inconsistent therewith.

In the event of any such Legal Action, the Surviving Corporation shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, advance, pay or reimburse the fees and expenses of counsel selected by the Covered Persons to the same extent and in the same manner as provided under the Constitutional Documents of the Company and each such Subsidiary, respectively, as of the date hereof and to cooperate in the defense of any such Legal Action with such counsel; provided that such counsel is reasonably satisfactory to the Surviving Corporation; and provided, further, that in the event that any claim for indemnification or for the advancement, payment or reimbursement of expenses is asserted or made within such six (6)-year period, all rights to indemnification or the advancement, payment or reimbursement of expenses in respect of such claim shall continue until the disposition of such claim.    
(b)    Without limiting the obligations set forth in Section 6.4(a), for a period of six (6) years following the Effective Time, (i) the Surviving Corporation shall not, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries not to, make any changes to the provisions of their Constitutional Documents or to the provisions of the employment agreements and indemnification agreements with Covered Persons listed respectively in Sections 3.13(a)(iii) and 3.13(a)(x) the Disclosure Letter or provided to Parent prior to the date hereof, in each case relating to the indemnification and exculpation of any Covered Person, that would adversely affect the right of such Covered Person to claim indemnification from the Surviving Corporation or its Subsidiaries under the terms of such Constitutional Documents, employment agreements or indemnification agreements as in effect on the date hereof for acts taken prior to the Effective Time, and (ii) the Surviving 

37

Corporation shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, honor all such indemnification and exculpation obligations thereunder (including with respect to the advancement of expenses).    
(c)    At or prior to the Closing, the Company shall purchase a prepaid noncancellable run-off directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy covering the Covered Persons for a period of six (6) years following the Closing Date with coverage in an amount and scope at least as favorable as the existing coverage of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the date of this Agreement with a deductible not more than the deductible under the existing coverage.   
(d)    The provisions of this Section 6.4 are intended to be for the benefit of, and will be enforceable by, as applicable, each Covered Person and the representatives of each Covered Person.  For a period of six (6) years following the Closing, in the event the Surviving Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries merges or consolidates with or transfers or assigns all or substantially all of its assets to any other Person, then proper provision shall be made by the Surviving Corporation so that such continuing or surviving corporation or entity or transferee of such assets, as the case may be, shall assume all of the applicable obligations set forth in this Section 6.4.

For purposes of determining eligibility to participate or levels of benefits or entitlement to benefits under Parent’s or the Surviving Corporation’s benefit plans, programs and arrangements (“Parent Benefit Plans”), each such employee shall be credited with his or her years of service with the Company or its Subsidiaries prior to the Closing Date (except to the extent such service credit would result in a duplication of benefits for the same period of service) and any pre-existing condition, actively-at-work, or similar requirement under any such benefit plans, programs or arrangements shall be waived by the plan sponsor with respect to such employees to the extent allowed thereunder and under Applicable Law.  
(b)    The Company shall permit Parent and its Representatives to perform due diligence with respect to the 401(k) plan of the Company and its Subsidiaries (the “401(k) Plan”), including providing Parent with (i) access to all benefit plan administrators, record keepers, custodians, agents and advisers, (ii) evidence of the 401(k) Plan’s tax-qualified status and timely IRS Form 5500 filings, (iii) such documentation that will allow Parent to determine the amount, if any, of fees, loads or other charges that will be triggered by the ceasing of new contributions to the 401(k) Plan or otherwise by virtue of the transactions contemplated hereby and (iv) such other documentation as Parent shall reasonably request with respect to the 401(k) Plan.  If, and only if, requested in writing by Parent at least five (5) Business Days prior to the

(a)    Each Stockholder Party agrees that during the period ending on the third (3rd) anniversary of the Closing Date, such Stockholder Party shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates (other than those of its portfolio companies that have not been (i) provided any employee information or other confidential information relating to the Company and its Subsidiaries, or (ii) purposely influenced or caused to engage in conduct that would otherwise violate this Section 6.11(a)) not to, in any manner, directly or indirectly, induce or attempt to induce any member of the senior management team or department head of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any Key Employee to terminate or abandon his or her employment or engagement for any purpose whatsoever.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained herein shall preclude the hiring of any such Person (i) who responds to a general solicitation of employment through an advertisement not targeted specifically at the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or their respective employees, (ii) who contacts a Stockholder Party on his or her own initiative without any solicitation by such Stockholder Party or (iii) who has been terminated by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries after the Closing or who has not been employed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, in each case for a period of at least six (6) months prior to such solicitation.

(c)    Without limiting the right of Parent to pursue all other legal and equitable rights available to it for violation of this Section 6.11 by any of the Stockholder Parties or their Affiliates, it is agreed that other remedies cannot fully compensate Parent or the Surviving Corporation for such a violation and that Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall each be entitled to injunctive relief to prevent violation or continuing violation thereof.
6.12.    Transfer of Common Stock; Voting; Company Stockholder Approval. 
(a)    Each Stockholder Party covenants that prior to the Closing, such Stockholder Party shall not (i) sell, transfer, mortgage, pledge, otherwise dispose of or suffer to be imposed any Lien on any share of Common Stock held by such Stockholder Party or (ii) grant to any Person (other than Parent) any proxy or other right to vote any shares of Common Stock held by such Stockholder Party or over which such Stockholder Party exercises voting power.
(b)    In order to consummate the Merger, the Company, acting through its board of directors, shall, in accordance with Applicable Law, use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, prior to the close of business on the second (2nd) Business Day following the date of this Agreement, pursuant to an executed written consent, the Stockholder Approval.  Promptly following receipt of such written consent, the Company shall cause its Secretary to deliver a copy of such written consent to Parent.

41

6.16.    Section 280G of the Code.  Prior to the Closing, the Company shall take such actions, in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Parent, as may be necessary to cause a stockholder vote, that if approved, would cause all payments made to any “disqualified individual” who has signed a 280G waiver that would otherwise constitute “excess parachute payments” under Section 280G of the Code as a result of the Merger to satisfy the stockholder approval exemption under Section 280G(b)(5)(A)(ii) of the Code, including providing a form of waiver of payments or benefits to each individual who is a “disqualified individual” of the Company and that may otherwise be entitled to receive “excess parachute payments” as a result of the Merger (as those terms are defined under Section 280G of the Code) (a “280G Waiver”), preparing a Section 280G of the Code disclosure statement, and seeking the execution of the 280G Waiver and the requisite stockholder approval.

The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to transfer to the Company or one of its Subsidiaries the title of any Owned Real Property that is not currently recorded in the name of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, which is set forth on Section 3.21 of the Disclosure Letter, and to record with each applicable Governmental Entity each new deed reflecting the Company or one of its Subsidiaries as the legal owner of such Owned Real Property as a result of such transfer of title, in each case prior to the Closing.

6.19    Stockholder Termination of Agreements.  Each Stockholder Party and the Surviving Corporation agree that, effective as of the Closing, all agreements between such Stockholder Party or any of its Affiliates and the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries shall be terminated and each party thereto shall be released from any and all obligations, claims, and causes of action against the other party thereto, except in each case for payments which are specified, or any obligations that are required to be performed on or after the Closing Date under, in each case, (i) this Agreement, the Promissory Note or the Mortgage or (ii) the Freight Bill Processing and Services Agreement, dated August 1, 2011, by and between KAO and Data2Logistics, LLC or  the Sales Quote and Marketing Agreement for American Racing Custom Wheels, dated as of January 31, 2013, between KAO and American Racing Custom Wheels.

(a)    Any indemnification for Losses by Parent or the Surviving Corporation pursuant to Section 9.2(a) or Section 10.1(a) shall first be required to be recovered by a reduction in amounts owed under the Promissory Note.  If and to the extent that it is not possible to satisfy any Losses by reducing the amounts owed under the Promissory Note at any time for any reason and the Equityholders Representative has not satisfied such Losses by paying to Parent or the Surviving Corporation funds in the amount of such Losses that were withheld by it from Equityholders pursuant to Section 12.1(b), then the Stockholder Parties shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Parent and the Surviving Corporation for such Losses severally based on their respective Indemnity Pro Rata Shares. 
(b)     No claims shall be made by Parent or the Surviving Corporation for indemnification pursuant to Section 9.2(a)(i) unless and until the aggregate amount of Losses (other than Losses incurred as a result of inaccuracies or breaches of the Company Fundamental Representations) for which Parent and the Surviving Corporation are entitled to seek to be indemnified pursuant to Section 9.2(a)(i) exceeds $3,500,000, at which time Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to indemnification for the amount in excess of such amount, subject to the other limitations set forth in this ARTICLE IX.

50

(c)    From and after the time that the claims made by Parent and the Surviving Corporation for indemnification exceed $3,500,000, no claims for indemnification may be made by Parent or the Surviving Corporation pursuant to Section 9.2(a)(i) for any individual item or series of related items where the Losses (other than Losses incurred as a result of inaccuracies or breaches of the Company Fundamental Representations) with respect to such item or series of related items (in the aggregate ) are less than $50,000.
(d)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the aggregate amount of any and all payments required to be made by all Equityholders pursuant to this ARTICLE IX (other than any amounts owed as a result of a breach of Section 10.5(b)) and ARTICLE X, by means of a reduction of the principal amount of the Promissory Note in accordance with this Agreement or otherwise, shall not exceed Forty Five Million Dollars ($45,000,000), and Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall not be entitled to any indemnification under this ARTICLE IX and ARTICLE X in excess of such amount. 
(e)    All indemnification payments made pursuant to this ARTICLE IX shall be made on an after-tax basis.  Accordingly, in determining the Losses incurred or suffered by an Indemnified Party hereunder, the amount of such Losses shall be (i) increased to take into account any additional Tax cost incurred by such Indemnified Party arising from the receipt of applicable indemnification payments hereunder and (ii) decreased to take into account any deduction, credit or other Tax benefit actually realized by such Indemnified Party with respect to the receipt of applicable indemnification payments hereunder.  In computing the amount of any such Tax cost or Tax benefit, the Indemnified Party shall be deemed to recognize all other items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit before recognizing any item arising from the receipt of applicable indemnification payments hereunder or the incurrence or payment relating to any Losses; provided that, if any such Tax cost or Tax benefit is not realized in the taxable period during which the Indemnifying Party makes an indemnification payment or the Indemnified Party incurs any Losses, the Parties shall thereafter make payments to one another at the end of each subsequent taxable period to reflect the net Tax costs or Tax benefits realized by the Parties in each such subsequent taxable period.
(f)    Any Indemnified Party that becomes aware of any Losses for which it seeks indemnification under this ARTICLE IX shall be required to use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate such Losses, including seeking all available insurance; provided that the Indemnified Party shall not be required to initiate litigation against any then-current customer, supplier, vendor or other Person (in each case, other than an insurance provider) having a business relationship with such Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates. 
(g)    The Losses suffered by any Indemnified Party shall be calculated after giving effect to any insurance proceeds actually recovered by the Indemnified Party from insurance providers under available insurance policies, net of (i) all out-of-pocket costs and expenses relating to collection from such insurers, (ii) any deductibles associates therewith and (iii) any increase in premiums resulting therefrom.
(h)    Notwithstanding the fact that any Indemnified Party may have the right to assert claims for indemnification under or in respect of more than one provision of this Agreement in respect of any fact, event, condition or circumstance, no Indemnified Party shall be 

51

entitled to recover the amount of any Losses suffered by such Indemnified Party more than once, regardless of whether such Losses may be as a result of a breach of more than one representation, warranty or covenant.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no Indemnified Party shall be able to recover any Loss for which it is otherwise entitled to indemnification under this Agreement if such Loss has already been taken into account in determining the Closing Net Working Capital pursuant to Section 2.6.
(i)    Except for claims for injunctive and other equitable relief, the sole and exclusive remedy of any Indemnified Party for money damages for any matters relating to this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby shall be the rights to indemnification set forth in this ARTICLE IX.  No officer, director, manager, employee, Affiliate, advisor or other representative of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall have any Liability under or with respect to this Agreement solely in their capacity as such.  
(j)    No party shall be entitled to be indemnified hereunder with respect to any Losses that are in the nature of exemplary or punitive damages (except to the extent such damages are awarded in a Third-Party Claim).
(k)    The limitations on indemnification contained in this Section 9.3 shall not apply in the case of fraud or willful misconduct of the Indemnifying Party.
9.4.    Procedures.  
(a)    If any Party believes at any time that it is entitled to be indemnified under this ARTICLE IX, such Party (the “Indemnified Party”) shall promptly deliver to (i) the Equityholders Representative, in the case of claims for indemnification being asserted by Parent or the Surviving Corporation, and (ii) Parent, in the case of claims for indemnification being asserted by the Equityholders Representative, a certificate (a “Claim Certificate”) that (x) states that the Indemnified Party has paid or properly incurred Losses and the amount thereof, or reasonably anticipates that it may or will incur Losses, for which such Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, and the estimated amount thereof, and (y) specifies in reasonable detail, to the extent practicable, each individual item of Loss included in the amount so stated, the date (if any) such item was paid or properly incurred, the basis for any anticipated liability and the nature of the misrepresentation, default, breach of warranty or breach of covenant or claim to which each such item is related and, to the extent computable, the computation of the amount to which such Indemnified Party claims to be entitled hereunder; provided, however, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in delivering a Claim Certificate shall diminish the rights of the Indemnified Party to be indemnified hereunder except to the extent that the delay shall increase the amount of such claim or Loss, and then only to such extent.
(b)    If the Equityholders Representative, in the case of indemnification claims by Parent or the Surviving Corporation, or Parent, in the case of indemnification claims by the Equityholders Representative (in either case, the “Indemnifying Party”) objects to a claim of an Indemnified Party in respect of any claim or claims specified in any Claim Certificate, the Indemnifying Party shall deliver a written notice to such effect to the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Claim Certificate by the Indemnifying Party.  Thereafter, the

52

Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall attempt in good faith to agree upon their respective rights within thirty (30) days after receipt by the Indemnified Party of such written objection with respect to each of such claims to which the Indemnifying Party has objected.  If the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party agree with respect to any of such claims, the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall promptly prepare and sign a memorandum setting forth such agreement.  If, as a result of such agreement, Parent is entitled to have the principal amount of the Promissory Note reduced, the Equityholders Representative shall promptly execute an amendment to the Promissory Note reflecting such reduction.  Should the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party fail to agree as to any particular item or items or amount or amounts, then the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to pursue its available remedies for resolving the claim for indemnification.
9.5.    Third-Party Claims.   
(a)    If a claim for indemnification under this ARTICLE IX is based on, or results from, a claim by a third party for which an Indemnified Party would be entitled to indemnification hereunder (a “Third-Party Claim”), such Indemnified Party shall deliver notice thereof to the Indemnifying Party promptly after receipt by such Indemnified Party of written notice of the Third-Party Claim, which (i) in the case of a claim for indemnification by Parent or the Surviving Corporation shall be delivered to the Equityholders Representatives and (ii) in the case of a claim for indemnification by the Equityholders Representative shall be delivered to Parent, describing in reasonable detail the facts giving rise to any claim for indemnification hereunder, the amount or method of computation of the amount of such claim (if known) and such other information with respect thereto as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request.  Any failure or delay in providing such notice, however, shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Article IX except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by such failure or delay.
(b)    The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, upon written notice to the Indemnified Party within fifteen (15) Business Days of receipt of notice from the Indemnified Party of such Third Party Claim, to assume the defense thereof at the expense of the Indemnifying Party with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party and reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party so long as: (i) the Indemnifying Party acknowledges in such notice that any Losses that the Indemnified Party may suffer resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of or caused by the Third-Party Claim constitute Losses that are indemnifiable by the Indemnifying Party under this Article IX; (ii) the Third-Party Claim involves only money damages and does not seek an injunction or other equitable relief; (iii) an adverse judgment or settlement would not or would not reasonably be likely to establish a precedent adverse to the business of the Indemnified Party; (iv) the Indemnifying Party conducts the defense of the Third-Party Claim actively and diligently; and (v) the Indemnifying Party agrees to keep the Indemnified Party apprised of all developments relating to the Third-Party Claim. 
(c)    If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of such Third-Party Claim and is conducting the defense of the Third-Party Claim in accordance with Section 9.5(b):  (i) the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party; provided that, if in the reasonable opinion of counsel for the Indemnified 

53

Party, there is a conflict of interest between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party (other than simply arising from the indemnification obligation hereunder), the Indemnifying Party shall be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of one counsel to such Indemnified Party in connection with such defense; (ii) the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in such defense and make available to the Indemnifying Party all witnesses, pertinent records, materials and information in the Indemnified Party’s possession or under the Indemnified Party’s control relating thereto as is reasonably required by the Indemnifying Party; (iii) the Indemnified Party shall not admit any liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge, or offer to settle, compromise or discharge, such Third-Party Claim without the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent (provided that if the Indemnifying Party does not provide its consent to a settlement, compromise or discharge agreed to or recommended by the Indemnified Party, then the monetary indemnification limitations set forth in Section 9.3(d) shall not apply to any Losses resulting from such Third-Party Claim, and the amount of any difference between any such Losses and the proposed settlement amount shall not be considered in determining whether the monetary limitations set forth in Section 9.3(d) have been exceeded; and (iv) the Indemnifying Party shall not admit any liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge, or offer to settle, compromise or discharge, such Third-Party Claim without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed with respect to a settlement, compromise or discharge agreed to or recommended by the Indemnifying Party that consists solely of the payment of a monetary amount of $4,500,000 or greater (provided that if the Indemnified Party does not provide its consent to a settlement, compromise or discharge that is agreed to or recommended by the Indemnifying Party and that consists solely of the payment of a monetary amount, then the Indemnified Party shall be responsible for, and the Indemnifying Party shall have no indemnification obligations with respect to, all Losses resulting from such Third-Party Claim that are in excess of such monetary amount).
(d)    In the event any of the conditions in Section 9.5(b) is or becomes unsatisfied, the Indemnified Party may defend against (with the Indemnifying Party responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Party) in connection with such defense, and consent to the entry of any judgment on or enter into any settlement with respect to, the Third-Party Claim in any manner the Indemnified Party may reasonably deem appropriate (and the Indemnified Party need not consult with, or obtain any consent from, any Indemnifying Party in connection therewith).
9.6.    Purchase Price Adjustment.  Parent, the Surviving Corporation and the Equityholders Representative (on behalf of the Equityholders) agree to treat each indemnification payment pursuant to this ARTICLE IX as an adjustment to the consideration being paid to the Equityholders for all Tax purposes and shall take no position contrary thereto unless required to do so by applicable Tax Law.
9.7.    Fraud and Willful Misconduct. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this ARTICLE IX shall limit any Indemnified Party’s right to bring an action in a court of law or equity alleging fraud or willful misconduct in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby that are otherwise available to such Indemnified Party and to recover Losses from any other Party hereto awarded by such court with respect thereto and the survival expiration periods 

54

set forth in Section 9.1 and the limitations set forth in Section 9.3 shall not apply with respect to any such action.  
ARTICLE X 
TAX MATTERS

10.1.    Tax Indemnity.  
(a)    Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall be indemnified as provided in Section 9.3(a) from and against, without duplication, any loss, claim, liability, expense or other damage attributable to (a) all Taxes (or the nonpayment thereof) of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for all Pre-Closing Tax Periods, (b) all Taxes of any member of an affiliated, consolidated, combined or unitary group of which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (or any predecessor of any of the foregoing) is or was a member on or prior to the Closing Date, including pursuant to Treasury Regulation §1.1502-6 or any analogous or similar state, local, or foreign law or regulation, and (c) any and all Taxes of any person imposed on the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as a transferee or successor, by contract or pursuant to any law, rule, or regulation, which Taxes relate to an event or transaction occurring before the Closing: provided, however, that no such indemnification shall be available for (1) any Tax to the extent such Tax relates to any Post-Closing Tax Period; (2) any Tax  to the extent such Tax is taken into account in the computation of the Per Share Merger Consideration; or (3) any Tax to the extent the Tax resulted from any breach by Parent of any covenant or other agreement in this ARTICLE X. 
(b)    Parent shall be responsible for and indemnify the Equityholders from and against all Taxes (or the nonpayment thereof) of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for all Post-Closing Tax Periods.   
(c)    For the avoidance of doubt, the Equityholders shall be entitled to receive the benefit (whether realized by refund of Taxes or by credit against Taxes of Parent, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) attributable to any deductions allowed to the Surviving Corporation for the Transaction Expenses, plus any actual interest collected on any such refund or credits attributable to such deductions, received from the applicable Taxing authority; provided, however, that the Stockholder Parties shall indemnify and hold harmless (on a several basis based on their respective Indemnity Pro Rata Share) Parent and the Surviving Corporation for any excess payment made by Parent or the Surviving Corporation to the Equityholders Representative (for further distribution to the Equityholders, subject to Section 12.1(b)) with respect to any such deduction claimed. The Surviving Corporation shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, cooperate with the Equityholders Representative in obtaining any refunds or credits which the Equityholders are entitled to receive the benefit of. Such cooperation shall include (i) informing the Equityholders Representative if and to the extent that Parent, the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company becomes aware of the possible availability of any such refund or credit, (ii) filing claims (including filing carryback claims and claims for the overpayment of estimated taxes on Internal Revenue Service Form 4466 and equivalent State forms) or amended Tax Returns at the request of the Equityholders Representative to obtain any such refund or credit and (iii) paying the amount of such credit or refund over to the Equityholders Representative (for further payment to the Equityholders in accordance with their respective Equity Ownership Percentages and the payment instructions set forth in their 

55

respective Letters of Transmittal) by wire transfer within five (5) Business Days after the receipt thereof.  
10.2.    Responsibility for Filing Tax Returns.  
(a)    The Surviving Corporation shall prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, at its sole cost and expense, all income Tax Returns of the Company or its Subsidiaries for any Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period that are filed or due (after taking into account all appropriate extensions) after the Closing Date.  Such income Tax Returns shall be prepared on a basis consistent with existing procedures and practices and accounting methods and by KPMG. At least forty-five (45) days prior to the due date of each such Tax Return, the Surviving Corporation shall submit a draft of such Tax Return to the Equityholders Representative for its review and comment. The Surviving Corporation and the Equityholders Representative shall cooperate in the preparation and filing of such tax return and the Surviving Corporation shall give good faith consideration to any comments made by the Equityholders Representative and shall make all changes (including making or refraining from making any election) requested by the Equityholders Representative that are consistent with applicable Law and are necessary to implement the provisions of Section 2.9 or otherwise maximize the deductions taken in such returns. 
(b)    For purposes of preparing all Tax Returns, and for purposes of determining whether to make (or not to make) certain Tax elections, the Stockholder Parties, the Equityholders Representative and Parent agree to use the following conventions (and to cause the Company and Parent’s other Affiliates to use the following conventions):
(i)    Any tax deductions resulting from the payment or accrual of an amount in a Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be treated as occurring on the Closing Date and no Party shall make any election under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-76(b)(1)(ii)(B) (or any similar provision of state, local, or non-U.S. applicable Law) to apply the “next day rule” to such deductions.
(ii)    Any gains, income, deductions, losses, or other items resulting from transactions outside of the ordinary course of business and not contemplated by this Agreement occurring on the Closing Date at the direction of Parent, but after the Closing, shall be treated as occurring on the day after the Closing Date and each Party shall utilize the “next day rule” in Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-76(b)(1)(ii)(B) (or any similar provision of state, local, or non-U.S. applicable Law) for purposes of reporting such items on applicable Tax Returns.
(iii)    No Party shall make an election under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-76(b)(2)(ii) (or any similar provision of state, local, or non-U.S. applicable Law) to ratably allocate items incurred by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.
(iv)    To the extent permissible under applicable Laws, to elect to have the Tax year of the Company end on the Closing Date and, if such election is not permitted or required in a jurisdiction such that the Company is required to file a Tax Return for a Straddle Period, the Parties agree to use the following conventions for determining the amount of Taxes 

56

attributable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date: (a) in the case of Income Taxes, Taxes imposed on sales or receipts, and Taxes imposed on payments, the amount attributable to such portion shall be determined as if the Company filed a separate Tax Return with respect to such Taxes for the portion of the Straddle Period ending as of the end of the day on the Closing Date using a “closing of the books methodology”; and (b) in the case of all other Taxes, the amount attributable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date shall be determined by multiplying the Taxes for the entire Straddle Period by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire Straddle Period.  For purposes of clause (a), any item determined on an annual or periodic basis (including amortization and depreciation deductions) shall be allocated to the portion of the Straddle Period that ends on the Closing Date based on the relative number of days in such portion as compared to the number of days in the entire Straddle Period.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any estimated payments or payments from a prior tax period that are applied to a Straddle Period shall be applied entirely to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date.
(c)    Parent, the Company, the Equityholders Representative and the Stockholder Parties shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns pursuant to this ARTICLE X and any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes (including Tax Contests).  Such cooperation shall include the retention for the full period of any statute of limitations and (upon the other Party’s request) the provision of records and information that are reasonably relevant to any such Tax Return, audit, litigation or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder.  The Company and the Equityholders agree (A) to retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Company and its Subsidiaries relating to any Taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until the expiration of the statute of limitations (and, to the extent notified by Parent or the Equityholders, any extensions thereof) of the respective Taxable periods, and to abide by all record retention agreements relating to Taxes entered into with any taxing authority, and (B) to give the other Party reasonable written notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any such books and records and, if the other party so requests, the Company or the Equityholders, as the case may be, shall allow the other party to take possession of such books and records.
10.3.    Tax Contests.
(a)    If any taxing authority issues to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (1) a notice of its intent to audit or conduct another legal proceeding with respect to a Tax Return or Taxes of the Company for any Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period or (2) a notice of deficiency for Taxes for any such period, Parent or the Company shall notify the Equityholders Representative of its receipt of such communication from the taxing authority within twenty (20) days of receipt.  Such notice shall be accompanied by a copy of any written notice or other document received from the applicable taxing authority.  
(b)    Except as otherwise provided in this Section 10.3, the Surviving Corporation shall have the sole right to control, at its expense, the contest of any audit or other 

57

Legal Proceedings in respect of any Taxes or Tax Returns of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (a “Tax Contest”).  The Equityholders Representative may, at its expense, participate in any such Tax Contest.  No Tax Contest relating to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or a Straddle Period may be settled by the Surviving Corporation without Equityholders Representative’s prior written consent if such settlement involves a matter for which Parent is seeking indemnification hereunder or a matter that is the subject of Section 10.5(b); provided, however, that no such consent by the Equityholders Representative shall be unreasonably withheld or delayed.   
(c)    In connection with any Tax Contest in which a Person elects to participate but does not have the right to control, (1) the participating Person shall notify the controlling Person of such intent, (2) the controlling Person shall take all actions necessary to allow the participating Person (and its counsel) to fully participate in such Tax Contest, (3) the controlling Person (and its counsel) shall consult with the participating Person (and its counsel) regarding the conduct of such Tax Contest and vice versa, (4) the controlling Person shall timely provide the participating Person with copies of all correspondence and other documents received regarding the Tax Contest from the applicable taxing authority, and (5) the controlling Person shall permit the participating Person to review and comment on any correspondence and other documents that will be provided to the taxing authority with respect to such Tax Contest to the extent that such correspondence or other documents may reasonably be expected to have an impact on the participating Person.
(d)    In connection with any Tax Contest in which a Person has the right to participate but elects not to do so, the controlling Person nevertheless shall keep such Person reasonably informed regarding the status of such Tax Contest.
10.4.    Assistance and Cooperation. The Equityholders Representative and Parent shall furnish or cause to be furnished to each other, upon request, as promptly as practicable, such information (including access to books and records) and assistance relating to the Company and its Subsidiaries as is reasonably requested for the filing of any Tax Returns, for the preparation of any audit, for the filing of Tax refund claims or amended Tax Returns and for the prosecution or defense of any Tax claim.  Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to, preserve and keep all books and records with respect to Taxes and Tax Returns of the Company and its Subsidiaries until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations.  Any information obtained under this Section 10.4 shall be kept confidential except (a) as may be otherwise necessary in connection with the filing of Tax Returns or claims for refund or in conducting an audit or other proceeding or (b) with the consent of the party in possession of such information.
10.5.    Transfer Taxes.  
(a)    Any and all transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other Taxes and fees payable in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (which for the avoidance of doubt do not include any such transfer or other Taxes referenced under Section 10.5(b)) shall be split equally between Parent, on the one hand, and the Equityholders, on the other hand, and shall be paid by Parent and the Equityholders Representative (on behalf of the Equityholders) when due, and Parent shall, at its own expense, 

58

file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all such transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other Taxes and fees, and, if required by Law, the Equityholders Representative, on behalf of the Equityholders, shall join in the execution of any such Tax Returns and documentation.
(b)    Any and all transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other Taxes and fees payable by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries relating to the transfer of title of any Owned Real Property to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any filing or recording made by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to reflect the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as the legal owner of any Owned Real Property, shall be paid by the Equityholders Representative (on behalf of the Equityholders) when due, and the Equityholders Representative shall, at its own expense, file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all such transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other Taxes and fees, and, if required by Law, the Surviving Corporation and any applicable Subsidiary shall join in the execution of any such Tax Returns and documentation. 
10.6.    Treatment of Payments.  All amounts paid under this ARTICLE X shall, to the extent permitted by Law, be treated for all purposes as adjustments to the consideration payable to the Equityholders hereunder.

12.5.    Entire Agreement.  This Agreement, the Exhibits and the Schedules hereto, including the Disclosure Letter, the Transaction Documents and the Confidentiality Agreement constitute the entire agreement among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.
12.6.    Severability.  In the event that any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement will continue in full force and effect and the application of such provision will be interpreted so as reasonably to effect the intent of the Parties.  The Parties further agree to replace such void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that will achieve, to the greatest extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such void or unenforceable provision.
12.7.    Specific Performance.  The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached.  It is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be 

75

entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any court of the United States or any state having jurisdiction, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at Law or in equity. 
12.8.    Successors and Assigns; Assignment; Parties in Interest.  This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding on, the Parties and their respective successors and assigns (if any).  Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, no Party may assign any of its rights or delegate any of its obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Parties.  Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any Person other than a Party any rights, interests, benefits or other remedies of any nature under or by reason of this Agreement, except that the indemnification provisions of this Agreement are intended to benefit the Indemnified Parties, and the provisions of Section 6.4 are intended to benefit the Covered Persons, and all such intended third-party beneficiaries shall be entitled to enforce such provisions of this Agreement.
12.9.    Amendment; Waiver.  This Agreement may be amended by the Parties only by execution of an instrument in writing signed by (a) Parent and the Company if such instrument is executed prior to the Effective Time or (b) Parent and the Equityholders Representative if such instrument is executed after the Effective Time.  At any time prior to the Effective Time, Parent and Merger Sub, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other, may, to the extent legally allowed, (i) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations of the other Parties, (ii) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties made to such Party contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto or (iii) waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions for the benefit of such Party contained herein.  Any agreement by any Party to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if, and to the extent, set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such Party.  No failure on the part of any Person to exercise any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, and no delay on the part of any Person in exercising any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, shall operate as a waiver of such power, right, privilege or remedy; and no single or partial exercise of any such power, right privilege or remedy shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right, privilege or remedy.
12.10.    Governing Law; Venue.
(a)    This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with, and governed in all respects by, the internal Laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to conflicts of law or choice of law provisions thereof.
(b)    Unless otherwise explicitly provided in this Agreement, any Legal Action relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of any provision of this Agreement shall be brought or otherwise commenced in any state or federal court located in the State of Delaware.  Each Party (i) expressly and irrevocably consents and submits to the jurisdiction of each such court, and each appellate court located in the State of Delaware, in connection with any such Legal Action, (ii) agrees that each such court shall be deemed to be a convenient forum and (iii) agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise, in any such Legal Action commenced in any such court, any claim that such Party is not subject personally to the 

76

jurisdiction of such court, that such Legal Action has been brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of such Legal Action is improper or that this Agreement or the subject matter of this Agreement may not be enforced in or by such court.
12.11.    Waiver of Jury Trial.  EACH PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY TRANSACTION AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.  EACH PARTY HERETO CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF THE OTHER PARTIES HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 12.11.
12.12.    Other Remedies.  Except as otherwise provided herein, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a Party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such Party, and the exercise by a Party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy.
12.13.    Counterparts; Electronic Delivery.  This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.  Any signature page delivered by facsimile or electronic image transmission shall be binding to the same extent as an original signature page.  Any Party that delivers a signature page by facsimile or electronic image transmission shall deliver an original counterpart to any other Party that requests such original counterpart, it being understood and agreed that the failure to deliver any such original counterpart upon request shall not affect the binding nature of the signature page delivered by facsimile or electronic image transmission.

The Stockholder Parties (as defined in the Merger Agreement) have made certain representations and warranties, entered into certain covenants and agreed to provide certain indemnities as set forth in the Merger Agreement (as defined below).  Holder agrees that, in addition to any other remedy that Maker (as defined below) may have available at law or equity and subject in all cases to the limitations set forth in the Merger Agreement, Maker may, subject to the limitations and procedures set forth in the Merger Agreement and this Note (as defined below), reduce the amount outstanding under this Note by any Loss (as defined below) for which the Stockholder Parties are responsible under the Merger Agreement.  

NON-NEGOTIABLE SECURED 
PROMISSORY NOTE
Issue Date:      Original Principal Amount:
[           ], 2014                                                                                                            $31,500,000
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, LKQ Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Maker”), hereby promises to pay to the order of Sphere Capital, LLC – Series A, a Delaware limited liability company, in its capacity as the designated representative of the Equityholders (as defined in the Merger Agreement) (together with its successor and assigns in such capacity as permitted by the terms of the Merger Agreement or applicable Laws, the “Holder”), the principal amount of $31,500,000, or such lesser principal amount then outstanding, together with interest thereon calculated in accordance with the provisions of this non-negotiable secured promissory note (this “Note”).
This Note is the Promissory Note referred to in, and originally issued on [     ], 2014 (the “Issue Date”) pursuant to, the Merger Agreement.  Each capitalized term used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to such term in Section 6 hereof or, if not so defined therein, the meaning ascribed to such term in the Merger Agreement.
1.Interest. Commencing on the Issue Date and continuing until payment of all amounts due hereunder, interest shall accrue on the then outstanding principal amount of this Note at the rate (the “Interest Rate”) of one percent (1%) per annum (based on a year of 365 days and computed on the number of days actually elapsed). 
2.    Payments on Note.
(a)    Scheduled Payment.  Subject to Section 2(e) below, the outstanding principal amount of this Note and unpaid accrued interest thereon shall be due and payable on the fifteen (15) month anniversary of the Issue Date or such earlier date as shall be specified pursuant to Section 5(b) or
as permitted pursuant to applicable Laws (the “Maturity Date”), and Maker shall

1

pay such amounts on such date.  Any payment shall be applied first to accrued interest and then to outstanding principal.
(b)    Optional Prepayments.  Maker may, at any time or from time to time, without premium or penalty, prepay all or any portion of the unpaid principal amount of this Note together with any unpaid interest which has accrued on the portion of the principal so prepaid.  Any payment shall be applied first to accrued interest and then to outstanding principal.
(c)    Time of Payment.  If any payment on this Note becomes due on a day that is not a Business Day, then such payment shall be made on the next Business Day and such extension of time will be included in computing interest in connection with such payment.
(d)    Right of Setoff.  The principal amount of this Note shall be reduced, retroactive to the Closing Date, by any amounts for which Losses by Parent or the Surviving Corporation is entitled to indemnification pursuant to Sections 9.2(a) or 10.1 of the Merger Agreement (whether now existing or hereinafter arising) in accordance with Section 9.4(b) of the Merger Agreement.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the satisfaction or reduction of any principal or interest hereunder pursuant to Maker’s right of setoff under this Section 2(d) shall not be considered a prepayment for the purposes hereof.
(e)    Payments in Cash. All payments on this Note shall be made in cash (it being understood that any reduction pursuant to Section 2(d) or the Merger Agreement in amounts owing under this Note shall not be deemed to be, or treated as, payments or prepayments for purposes of this Section 2(e)).
(f)    Equityholders Representative.  The Holder shall (i) disburse any payments made to it under this Note to the Equityholders in accordance with Section 2.6(e) of the Merger Agreement and (ii) have authority on behalf of the Equityholders, to contest or settle any Pending Claim, and any agreement between Maker and the Holder with respect to any Pending Claim shall be binding on the Equityholders.
(g)    Limitation on Repayment and Prepayment.  For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding any other provision of this Note or the Merger Agreement, no repayment or prepayment of any amount owed under this Note, whether pursuant to Section 2 or otherwise, shall be made, and no such failure to make such repayment shall constitute an Event of Default pursuant to Section 5(a), in each case if the principal amount outstanding under this Note after such repayment or prepayment would be less than the amount that would be required to satisfy in full the Aggregate Pending Claim Amount.
3.    Mortgage(s). The payment and performance in full of each of the obligations hereunder, including, without limitation, the payment in full of the amounts due hereunder by Maker, is secured by all that certain real estate and improvements thereon, erected or to be erected, situate in the Borough of Exeter, County of Luzerne, Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and more particularly described in Exhibit “A” attached hereto and made a part hereof.

(b)    Remedies.  So long as an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing:
(i)    Upon and after the election of the Holder on behalf of the Equityholders, the interest rate hereunder shall increase from one percent (1%) to five percent (5%) per annum; provided, however, that such rate shall automatically increase as a result of an Event of Default described in Sections 5(a)(i) or 5(a)(ii).

The provisions of this Note may be amended if, and Maker may take any action herein prohibited or omit to perform any act herein required to be performed by it if, and only if, Maker has obtained the written consent of the Holder, in its sole discretion.  No failure on the part of either party hereto to exercise any right or remedy hereunder shall constitute a waiver of that right or remedy.
8.    Restrictions on Transfer.  Maker may not sell, transfer, assign or otherwise dispose of all or any part of its obligations under this Note.  So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Holder may not sell, transfer, assign, negotiate, pledge or otherwise dispose of all or any portion of or any interest in this Note (and any purported sale, transfer, assignment, negotiation, pledge or other disposition in violation of this provision shall be void) other than to any successor representative of the Equityholders to the extent permitted by the terms of the Merger Agreement or applicable Laws.
9.    Cancellation.  After all principal and accrued interest at any time owed on this Note has been paid in full, this Note shall be surrendered by the Holder to Maker for cancellation and shall not be reissued; provided, however, that if any amounts paid to Holder hereunder are required to be repaid, refunded, restored or returned to Maker or any of its Affiliates for any reason, whether because such payment is asserted or declared to be void, voidable or otherwise recoverable under any law relating to fraudulent transfers, preferences, creditors rights generally or otherwise, then as to any such amount, the obligations under this Note shall be immediately and automatically revived, restored and reinstated together with any corresponding lien on the assets or Maker or

12.    No Strict Construction.  Maker and the Holder have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Note.  In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Note shall be construed as if drafted jointly by Maker and the Holder, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provision of this Note.
13.    Waiver of Jury Trial.  THIS NOTE IS ISSUED SUBJECT TO THE EXPRESS UNDERSTANDING THAT EACH OF HOLDER AND MAKER  HAS WAIVED, ON BEHALF OF ITSELF OR, WITH RESPECT TO HOLDER, THE EQUITYHOLDERS UNDER THIS NOTE, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT ANY SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS NOTE.

TO HAVE AND TO HOLD the Mortgaged Property hereby conveyed or mentioned and intended so to be, unto Mortgagee, its successors and assigns to its own use forever.
PROVIDED ALWAYS, and this instrument is upon the express condition that, if Maker pays to Mortgagee the principal sum mentioned in the Note, the interest thereon and all other sums payable by Mortgagor to Mortgagee as are secured hereby, in accordance with the provisions of the Note and this Mortgage, then this Mortgage and the estate hereby granted shall cease and become void.
Subject to Section 26 of this Mortgage, Mortgagor hereby irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally guarantees and becomes surety for the prompt payment by Maker, as and when due and payable, whether by acceleration or otherwise of all amounts now or hereafter owing by Maker in respect of the Note, whether for principal, interest, fees, expenses or otherwise, and the due performance and observance by Maker of its other obligations now or hereafter existing in respect of any of the Note and any renewals, extensions and modifications thereof.  The liability of Mortgagor hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of: (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of the Note; (ii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term in respect of, the Note, or any other amendment or waiver of or consent to any departure from the terms of the Note; (iii) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, Maker or Mortgagor 

2

in respect hereof; or (iv) the absence of any action on the part of Mortgagee to obtain payment of the Note from Maker or from Mortgagor or from any other guarantor or obligor.
The Mortgaged Property shall secure the following obligations (“Obligations”) of Maker or Mortgagor to Mortgagee:
(a)all amounts at any time owing or payable under the Note as guaranteed by Mortgagor in this Mortgage;
(b)    all covenants, agreements and obligations of Mortgagor under this Mortgage; and
(c)    all future advances made by Mortgagee for taxes, levies, insurance, and repairs to or maintenance of the Mortgaged Property.
MORTGAGOR REPRESENTS, COVENANTS AND WARRANTS to and with Mortgagee that until the indebtedness secured hereby is fully repaid:
1.Title.  Mortgagor hereby represents and warrants that [except as set forth in Schedule 1] it has good and marketable title in fee simple (subject to the Permitted Liens, as that term is defined in the Merger Agreement (as that term is defined in the Note)) to the Real Estate.
2.    Maintenance of Mortgaged Property.  Mortgagor shall keep and maintain or cause to be kept and maintained the Improvements in good order and condition and will promptly make or cause to be made, as and when necessary for such purpose, all repairs, renewals and replacements, structural and nonstructural, exterior and interior, ordinary and extraordinary, foreseen and unforeseen.  Mortgagor shall abstain from and shall not permit the commission of waste in or about the Mortgaged Property.
3.    Insurance.  Mortgagor shall keep the Mortgaged Property continuously insured against loss or damage by fire or other casualty in an amount not less than the full replacement cost (evidenced by a “Replacement Cost Endorsement”) of the Mortgaged Property.  The insurance coverage required under this Section shall be insured under policies: (a) in form reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee; (b) endorsed with a standard mortgagee clause in favor of Mortgagee providing not less than thirty days’ notice to Mortgagee of any cancellation or change in coverage; and (c) endorsed to name Mortgagee as loss payee.  If the insurance, or any part thereof, shall expire, or be withdrawn or not renewed, or become void or unsafe by Mortgagor’s breach of any condition thereof, or become void or unsafe by reason of the failure or impairment of the capital of any company in which the insurance may then be carried, Mortgagor shall place new insurance on the Mortgaged Property.  In the event that Mortgagor fails or refuses to place such new insurance on the Mortgaged Property on or before the expiration or withdrawal or nonrenewal of the existing coverage, then Mortgagee may obtain such insurance as Mortgagee deems necessary to satisfy the terms and conditions of this Mortgage.  In such event, the cost of such insurance plus a reasonable amount to reimburse Mortgagee for its administrative expenses in obtaining such insurance shall be immediately paid to Mortgagee by Mortgagor.  In the event that such costs and expenses are not immediately paid to Mortgagee by Mortgagor, then the amount of such costs and expenses shall be added to the outstanding principal balance of the Note, 

3

shall accrue interest thereon and shall be secured by this Mortgage.  Evidence of all renewal policies, with premiums paid, shall be delivered to Mortgagee prior to the expiration of the old policies.  In the event of loss greater than $50,000 Mortgagor will give immediate notice thereof to Mortgagee, and Mortgagee may make proof of loss if not timely made by Mortgagor.
4.    Taxes and Other Charges.  Mortgagor shall pay when due and payable and before interest or penalties are due thereon, without any deduction, defalcation or abatement, all taxes, assessments, water and sewer rents and all other charges or claims which may be assessed, levied, or filed at any time against Mortgagor, the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof or against the interest of Mortgagee therein, or which by any present or future law may have priority over the indebtedness secured hereby either in lien or in distribution out of the proceeds of any judicial sale; and Mortgagor shall produce to Mortgagee upon request receipts for the payment thereof.  If no Event of Default (as hereinafter defined) is then continuing and Mortgagor in good faith and by appropriate legal action shall contest the validity or amount of any such taxes, assessments, water and sewer rents or other charges and shall have established a reserve for the payment thereof in such form and amount as Mortgagee may reasonably require (including any interest and penalties which may be payable in connection therewith), then Mortgagor shall not be required to pay such taxes, assessments, water and sewer rents or other charges or to produce the receipts while the reserve is maintained and so long as the contest operates to prevent collection, is maintained and prosecuted with diligence, and shall not have been terminated or discontinued adversely to Mortgagor.
5.    Future Taxes.  If hereafter any law or ordinance shall be adopted imposing a tax directly or indirectly on Mortgagee with respect to the Mortgaged Property, the value of Mortgagor’s equity therein, or the indebtedness evidenced by the Note and secured by this Mortgage, then Mortgagor agrees to pay the tax whenever it becomes due and payable thereafter, which agreement shall then constitute a part of this Mortgage.
6.    Compliance with Laws and Regulations.  Mortgagor, at its sole cost and expense, shall promptly comply with all requirements of all laws, ordinances, regulations and orders of all Federal, state, municipal and other governmental authorities relating to the Mortgaged Property (“Legal Requirements”), construction thereon and the use and occupancy thereof, including but not limited to all laws and regulations relating to environmental matters.
7.    Further Assurances.  Mortgagor will, from time to time, make, do execute and acknowledge, as the situation may require from time to time, such further acts, deeds, conveyances, mortgages, security agreements, financing statements, continuation statements and other assurances in law as may be required for the purpose of effectuating the intent hereof and for better assuring and confirming to Mortgagee, its successors and assigns, the lien and security interest created by this Mortgage.
8.    Declaration of No Set-Off.  Within twenty (20) days after being requested to do so by Mortgagee, Mortgagor shall certify to Mortgagee or to any proposed assignee of this Mortgage, in a writing duly acknowledged, the amount of principal, interest and other charges then owing on the Obligations secured by this Mortgage and by prior liens, if any, and whether there are any setoffs or defenses against them.

4

9.    Additional Covenants.  Mortgagor covenants and agrees that until the Obligations secured hereunder have been paid in full, Mortgagor shall:
(a)    [subject to the matters described on Schedule 1,] maintain at all times good and marketable title to all Mortgaged Property, and defend such title against the claims and demands of all persons;
(b)    pay all charges for water, sewer, gas, electric and other utility services provided to the Mortgaged Property promptly as and when due;

(d)    not commit or suffer waste with respect to the Mortgaged Property;
(e)    not remove or demolish any material portion of the Mortgaged Property without the prior written consent of Mortgagee;

(g)    pay, upon demand, all amounts incurred by Mortgagee in connection with any action or proceeding taken or commenced by Mortgagee to enforce or collect this Mortgage or protect, insure or realize upon the Mortgaged Property, including reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses.
10.    Required Notices.  Mortgagor shall notify Mortgagee promptly of the occurrence of any of the following:
(a)    a fire or other casualty causing damage to the Mortgaged Property in excess of $50,000,

(c)    receipt of written notice from any governmental authority relating to any material violation of any Legal Requirements;
(d)    commencement of any litigation affecting the Mortgaged Property; or
(e)    discovery, discharge or release of any hazardous materials for which Mortgagor is or may be responsible under any Legal Requirements.

11.    Condemnation; Casualty.
(a)    Condemnation.  
(i)    In the event of any condemnation or taking of any part of the Mortgaged Property by eminent domain, alteration of the grade of any street, or other injury to or decrease in the value of the Mortgaged Property by any public or quasi-public authority or corporation, all proceeds (that is, the award or agreed compensation for the damages sustained) allocable to Mortgagor shall be applicable first to payment of the indebtedness secured hereby, subject to the terms of the Note.  No settlement for the damages sustained shall be made by Mortgagor without Mortgagee’s prior written approval.  Receipt by Mortgagee of any proceeds less than the full amount of the then outstanding debt secured hereby shall not alter or modify Maker’s obligation to continue to pay the installments of principal, interest and other charges specified in the Note.  All the proceeds shall be applied in the order and in the amounts that Mortgagee, in Mortgagee’s sole discretion, may elect, to the payment of principal, interest or any sums secured by this Mortgage, in each case, subject to the terms of the Note, or toward payment to Mortgagor, on such reasonable terms as Mortgagee may specify, to be used for the sole purpose of altering, restoring or rebuilding any part of the Mortgaged Property which may have been altered, damaged or destroyed as a result of the taking, alteration of grade or other injury to the Mortgaged Property.  Receipt of such proceeds by Mortgagee shall not be subject to a prepayment penalty hereunder or under the Note.
(ii)    If prior to the receipt of the proceeds by Mortgagee the Mortgaged Property shall have been sold by foreclosure of this Mortgage, Mortgagee shall have the right to receive the proceeds, to the extent of:
(A)    any deficiency found to be due to Mortgagee in connection with the foreclosure sale, with legal interest thereon, and
(B)    reasonable counsel fees, costs and disbursements incurred by Mortgagee in connection with collection of the proceeds and the proceedings to establish the deficiency.
(iii)    If the amount of the initial award of damages for the condemnation is insufficient to pay in full the indebtedness secured hereby with interest and other appropriate charges, Mortgagee shall have the right to prosecute to final determination or settlement an appeal or other appropriate proceedings in the name of Mortgagee or Mortgagor, for which Mortgagee is hereby appointed irrevocably as attorney-in fact for Mortgagor (without requiring Mortgagee to act as such), which appointment, being for security, is irrevocable.  In that event, the expenses of the proceedings, including reasonable counsel fees and expenses, shall be paid first out of the proceeds and only the excess, if any, paid to Mortgagee shall be credited against the amounts due under this Mortgage.
(iv)    Nothing herein shall limit the rights otherwise available to Mortgagee, at law, including the right to intervene as a party to any condemnation proceeding.  

6

(b)    Casualty.  If the Mortgaged Property is damaged by fire or other casualty, Mortgagor shall promptly repair and restore the same to its condition prior to the damage.  In the event of any fire or other casualty damaging any part of the Mortgaged Property, all insurance proceeds shall, subject to the terms of the Note, be applicable first to payment of the indebtedness secured hereby.  No settlement for the damages sustained shall be made by Mortgagor without Mortgagee’s prior written approval.  Receipt by Mortgagee of any insurance proceeds less than the full amount of the then outstanding debt secured hereby shall not alter or modify Maker’s obligation to continue to pay the installments of principal, interest and other charges specified in the Note.  All the insurance proceeds shall be applied in the order and in the amounts that Mortgagee, in Mortgagee’s sole discretion, may elect, to the payment of principal (whether or not then due and payable), interest or any sums secured by this Mortgage, or toward payment to Mortgagor, on such reasonable terms as Mortgagee may specify, to be used for the sole purpose of altering, restoring or rebuilding any part of the Mortgaged Property which may have been damaged or destroyed as a result of the fire or other casualty to the Mortgaged Property.  Receipt of such proceeds by Mortgagee shall not be subject to a prepayment penalty hereunder or under the Note.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, so long as no Event of Default shall exist under this Mortgage, the insurance proceeds shall be delivered by Mortgagee to Mortgagor on such reasonable terms as Mortgagee may specify for the sole purpose of restoring or rebuilding any part of the Mortgaged Property which may have been damaged or destroyed as a result of the event of fire or other casualty.
12.    No Transfer.  For the purpose of protecting Mortgagee’s security, Mortgagor agrees that (a) any sale or other transfer of title to the Mortgaged Property, or (b) any transfer of any stock, partnership, company or other ownership interests in Mortgagor (other than to an Affiliate (as that term is defined in the Merger Agreement) of Maker), in either case, without Mortgagee’s prior written consent, shall result in immediate acceleration of the Obligations.
13.    Mortgagee’s Rights.  In the event that Mortgagor should fail to pay real estate or other taxes, assessments, water and sewer rents, charges and claims, insurance premiums, or fail to make necessary repairs, or permit waste, Mortgagee, at its election, shall have the right to make any payment or expenditure and to take any action which Mortgagor should have made or taken, or which Mortgagee deems advisable to protect the security of this Mortgage or the Mortgaged Property, including, without limitation, any rights granted to Mortgagee under the Note, without prejudice to any of Mortgagee’s rights or remedies available hereunder or otherwise, at law.  In addition, Mortgagor hereby authorizes Mortgagee, and Mortgagee shall have the continuing right (but not the obligation), at its sole option and discretion, to:
(a)    do anything which Mortgagor is required but fails to do hereunder, and in particular Mortgagee may, if Mortgagor fails to do so within ten (10) business days after receipt by Mortgagor of written notice from Mortgagee, (i) insure or take any reasonable steps to protect the Mortgaged Property, (ii) pay all taxes, levies, expenses and costs arising with respect to the Mortgaged Property, or (iii) pay any premiums payable on any policy of insurance required to be obtained or maintained hereunder, and add any amounts paid under this Section 13(a) to the principal amount of the indebtedness secured by this Mortgage; and 

7

(b)    pay any amounts Mortgagee elects to pay or advance hereunder following the occurrence of an Event of Default on account of insurance, taxes or other costs, fees or charges arising in connection with the Mortgaged Property, either directly to the payee of such cost, fee or charge, directly to Mortgagor, or to such payee(s) and Mortgagor jointly.
All such sums, as well as costs, advanced by Mortgagee pursuant to this Mortgage shall be due immediately from Mortgagor to Mortgagee, shall be secured hereby, and shall bear interest at a rate which shall be two and one-half percent (2.5 %) higher than the then highest effective rate specified in the Note (the “Default Rate”) from the date of payment by Mortgagee until the date of repayment.
14.    Events of Default.  Each of the following shall constitute an “Event of Default” hereunder:
(a)    The occurrence of an Event of Default, as that term is defined in the Note;
(b)    Failure to comply with any term, obligation, covenant or condition contained in this Mortgage.  If such failure is curable and if Mortgagor has not been given notice of a breach of the same provision of this Mortgage within the preceding twelve (12) months, it may be cured (and no Event of Default will have occurred) if Mortgagor, after Mortgagee sends written notice demanding cure of such failure; (i) cures the failure within fifteen (15) days; or (ii) if the cure requires more than fifteen (15) days, immediately initiates steps sufficient to cure the failure and thereafter continues and completes all reasonable and necessary steps sufficient to produce compliance as soon as reasonably practical;
(c)    Any warranty, representation or statement made to Mortgagee by Mortgagor under this Mortgage is false or misleading in any material respect as of the date hereof; or
(d)    Commencement of foreclosure or forfeiture proceedings, whether by judicial proceeding, self-help, repossession or any other method, by any creditor of Mortgagor or by any governmental agency against any of the Mortgaged Property; provided, however, that this subsection (d) shall not apply in the event of a good faith dispute by Mortgagor as to the validity or reasonableness of the claim which is the basis of the foreclosure or forfeiture proceeding, provided that Mortgagor gives Mortgagee written notice of such claim and furnishes reserves or a surety bond for the claim satisfactory to Mortgagee.

The receiver may serve without bond if permitted by law.

(d)    Mortgagee may obtain a judgment for any deficiency remaining in the Obligations due to Mortgagee after application of all amounts received from the exercise of the rights provided in this section;
(e)    If Mortgagor remains in possession of the Mortgaged Property after the Mortgaged Property is sold as provided above or Mortgagee otherwise becomes entitled to possession of the Mortgaged Property upon default of Mortgagor, Mortgagor shall become a tenant at sufferance of Mortgagee or the purchaser of the Mortgaged Property and shall, at Mortgagee’s option, either (i) pay a reasonable rental for the use of the Mortgaged Property, or (ii) vacate the Mortgaged Property immediately upon the demand of Mortgagee;

(g)    Mortgagee shall have all other rights and remedies provided in this Mortgage or available at law.
16.    Rights and Remedies Cumulative.

9

(a)    The rights and remedies of Mortgagee as provided in this Mortgage and the Note shall be cumulative and concurrent; may be pursued separately, successively or together against Mortgagor, Maker or against the Mortgaged Property, or both, at the sole discretion of Mortgagee, and may be exercised as often as occasion therefor shall arise.  The failure to exercise any such right or remedy shall in no event be construed as a waiver or release thereof.
(b)    Any failure by Mortgagee to insist upon strict performance by Mortgagor of any of the terms and provisions of this Mortgage shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any of the terms or provisions of this Mortgage and Mortgagee shall have the right thereafter to insist upon strict performance by Mortgagor of any and all of them.
(c)    Neither Mortgagor nor any other person now or hereafter obligated for payment of all or any part of the sums now or hereafter secured by this Mortgage shall be relieved of such obligation by reason of the failure of Mortgagee to comply with any request of Mortgagor or of any other person so obligated to take action to foreclose on this Mortgage or otherwise enforce any provisions of this Mortgage, or by reason of the release, regardless of consideration, of all or any part of the security held for the indebtedness secured by this Mortgage, or by reason of any agreement or stipulation between any subsequent owner of the Mortgaged Property and Mortgagee extending the time of payment or modifying the terms of this Mortgage without first having obtained the consent of Mortgagor or such other person; and in the latter event Mortgagor and all such other persons shall continue to be liable to make payments according to the terms of any such extension or modification agreement, unless expressly released and discharged in writing by Mortgagee.
(d)    Mortgagee may release, regardless of consideration, any part of the security held for the indebtedness secured by this Mortgage without, as to the remainder of the security, in any way impairing or affecting the lien of this Mortgage or its priority over any subordinate lien.
17.    Assignment of Leases.  This Mortgage is also an absolute and unconditional assignment to Mortgagee of all Leases and Income, whether now in existence or hereafter arising, for the purpose of vesting in Mortgagee a first priority, perfected security interest in the Leases and the Income.  Mortgagor hereby assigns, transfers and sets over to Mortgagee all Leases, all Income and all rights of Mortgagor to enforce the Leases and collect the Income.  This assignment includes any award received or receivable by Mortgagor in any legal proceeding involving any tenant under a Lease whether under the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise.  Mortgagor shall notify any person which Mortgagee may from time to time specify that the Income should be paid directly to Mortgagee and that any modification of the Leases must be approved by Mortgagee.  So long as no Event of Default is then continuing, Mortgagor shall have a license, revocable at the will of Mortgagee, to enforce the Leases and collect the Income.  Mortgagor hereby authorizes and directs that all other parties now or hereafter owing or paying Income under any Lease or now or hereafter having in their possession or control any Income from or allocated to the Mortgaged Property, or any part thereof, shall, upon the request of Mortgagee and until Mortgagee directs otherwise, pay and deliver such Income directly to Mortgagee at Mortgagee’s address set forth below, or in such other manner as Mortgagee may direct such parties in writing and this authorization shall continue until this Mortgage is released 

10

of record.

Notwithstanding any legal presumption to the contrary, Mortgagee shall not be obligated by reason of its acceptance of this assignment to perform any obligation of Mortgagor as lessor under any Lease.  Neither the acceptance of this assignment nor the collection of Income under the Leases shall constitute a waiver of any rights of Mortgagee hereunder or under the Note or constitute a cure of any default by Mortgagor hereunder or thereunder.
18.    Mortgagor’s Waivers.  Mortgagor hereby waives and releases all benefit that might accrue to Mortgagor by virtue of any present or future law exempting the Mortgaged Property, or any part of the proceeds arising from any sale thereof, from attachment, levy or sale on execution, or providing for any stay of execution, exemption from civil process or extension of time for payment.

All notices and other communications provided for in this Mortgage shall be in writing and shall be given in the manner and become effective as set forth in the Note, and addressed to the respective parties at their addresses specified below or as to either party hereto at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other party hereto.
