          STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT dated as of September 16, 2010 (this “Agreement”) by and
among Thor Industries, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Purchaser”), Heartland RV Holdings,
L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Seller”), Towable Holdings, Inc., a Delaware

liability company (the “Company” and, together with Holdings, the “Company
Parties”), and, solely with respect to Section 2.02(a)(vii), (viii) and
(ix), Article III.B., Article VIII, Article IX, Article X
and Article XI of this Agreement, the other parties listed on the signature pages hereto
(the “Seller Owners”).

W I T N E S S E T H:

          WHEREAS, the Company is engaged in the business (the “Business”) of manufacturing and
marketing recreational vehicles, consisting of travel trailers and fifth-wheel vehicles (the
“Products”);

          WHEREAS, Seller owns all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Holdings (the
“Purchased Shares”) and has agreed to cause Holdings and the Company to enter into this
Agreement and consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and, in its capacity as sole
stockholder of Holdings, to enter into this Agreement and consummate the transactions contemplated
hereby; and

          WHEREAS, Purchaser desires to acquire the Purchased Shares from Seller and Seller desires to
sell the Purchased Shares to Purchaser, all in accordance with the terms and conditions of this
Agreement and the documents contemplated hereby.

          NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and the mutual agreements, covenants,
representations and warranties herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:

Article I

PURCHASE AND SALE

          SECTION 1.01 Purchase and Sale.

     Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set
forth in this Agreement, at the Closing, Seller shall sell, transfer, assign, convey and deliver to
Purchaser, and Purchaser shall purchase from Seller, all of the Purchased Shares, free and clear of
any and all Liens.

Article II

PURCHASE PRICE

          SECTION
2.01 Purchase Price. 

     The aggregate amount of consideration to be paid
by Purchaser to Seller for all of the Purchased Shares shall be (x) One Hundred Million Dollars
($100,000,000) minus the amounts outstanding on the capital leases of the Company in accordance
with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) listed on Annex
2.01 (the “Estimated Capital Leases Amount”) (the amount calculated in accordance with
this clause (x), the “Cash Consideration”) and (y) 4,300,000 shares of common stock, par
value $0.10 per share, of Purchaser (the “Equity Consideration” and, together with the Cash

 

 

Consideration,
the “Purchase Price”), as such Purchase Price may be subject to adjustment in
accordance with Section 2.02. The initial Purchase Price shall be paid at the Closing
as follows:

          (a) The Cash Consideration shall be paid at Closing, as follows: 

          (i) First, Purchaser shall pay off the outstanding indebtedness under the financing
arrangements set forth on Annex 2.01(a)(i) (the “Closing Date Debt
Obligations”) (pursuant to the payoff letters described in Section 6.01(d)) that
remains outstanding after giving effect to the use by the Company of all of the Estimated
Closing Cash to repay a portion of the Closing Date Debt Obligations, where “Estimated
Closing Cash” means the cash and cash equivalents of Holdings and its Subsidiaries,
determined in accordance with GAAP as in effect on the date hereof, as of immediately prior
to the Closing (and, for the avoidance of doubt, without giving effect to the use of such
cash and cash equivalents in accordance with this Section 2.01(a)(i)) in an amount
estimated by Seller and communicated in writing by Seller to Purchaser on the Closing Date;

          (ii) Second, Purchaser shall pay to one or more accounts designated by Seller in
writing on the Closing Date an amount equal to the fees and expenses incurred by or on
behalf of Seller, Seller Owners, Seller Limited Partners and/or Holdings and its
Subsidiaries in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, payable by
any such Persons to outside legal counsel, accountants, advisors, brokers and other third
parties and unpaid as of immediately prior to the Closing, all as set forth on Annex
2.01(a)(ii); and

          (iii) Third, Purchaser shall pay to Seller by wire transfer of immediately available
funds to an account or accounts designated by Seller in writing on the Closing Date an
amount equal to the Cash Consideration minus the amounts payable at the Closing
pursuant to Section 2.01(a)(i) and (ii); provided, that in no event
shall the aggregate amount payable by Purchaser pursuant to Section 2.01(a)(i) and
(a)(ii) and this Section 2.01(a)(iii) exceed the Cash Consideration;

          (b) Seller hereby instructs Purchaser to deliver the Equity Consideration to the limited
partners of Seller or the parent entities of such limited partners (the “Seller Limited
Partners”) as set forth on Annex 2.01(b) which shall be updated by Seller in accordance
with Section 5.07. The Equity Consideration shall be in the form of stock certificates
evidencing the ownership of Equity Consideration in the respective share amounts set forth opposite
the names of the Persons on Annex 2.01(b). The Equity Consideration shall be validly
issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free and clear of any Liens, except, with respect to the
Seller Limited Partners who are party thereto, as set forth in the Stock Restriction Agreement (as
defined in Section 6.01(l)) for the Seller.

          SECTION
2.02 Post Closing Adjustment of the Purchase Price. 

     Following the Closing
and pursuant to Section 2.02(a), the Purchase Price will be adjusted downward, on a dollar
for dollar basis, to the extent that Holdings’ stockholder equity as of immediately prior to the
Closing (but without giving effect to the payments contemplated by Section 2.01(a)(i)) as
finally determined in accordance with GAAP, as in effect on the date
hereof, applied on a basis consistent with the Company Parties’ past practices (to the extent
applicable), except as

2

 

otherwise set forth in Annex 2.02 (“Stockholder
Equity”), is less than Forty-Seven Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($47,500,000). The
Stockholder Equity shall be determined and calculated strictly in accordance with
Annex 2.02 using the applicable line items set forth on the Audited Closing
Balance Sheet (as defined below) as agreed upon by the parties in accordance with
Section 2.02(a). Following the Closing and pursuant to Section 2.02(a),
the Purchase Price shall also be adjusted (x) (A) upward, on a dollar for dollar basis, if the
Final Closing Cash (as defined below) exceeds the Estimated Closing Cash or (B) downward, on a
dollar for dollar basis, if the Estimated Closing Cash exceeds the Final Closing Cash (any such
adjustment, whether upward or downward, a “Cash Adjustment”) and (y) (A) upward, on a
dollar for dollar basis, if the Estimated Capital Leases Amount exceeds the Final Capital Leases
Amount or (B) downward, on a dollar for dollar basis, if the Final Capital Leases Amount exceeds
the Estimated Capital Leases Amount (any such adjustment, whether upward or downward, a
“Capital Leases Adjustment”).

          (a) Determination of Final Purchase Price.

          (i) In order to conclusively determine the Stockholder Equity as of the Closing,
Purchaser, with the cooperation of Seller, will cause a consolidated balance sheet of
Holdings and its Subsidiaries as of immediately prior to the Closing (but without giving
effect to the payments contemplated by Section 2.02(a)(i) and (ii)) (the
“Proposed Closing Balance Sheet”) to be prepared as promptly as practicable
following the Closing Date and in no event more than forty-five (45) days following the
Closing Date and Purchaser will engage Crowe Horwath LLP (“Crowe”) to perform an
audit, in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, of the Proposed Closing
Balance Sheet (as so audited, the “Audited Closing Balance Sheet”) and will allow
Crowe to independently select its audit team. The Audited Closing Balance Sheet shall set
forth, among other things, the final amount of all cash and cash equivalents of Holdings and
its Subsidiaries as of immediately prior to the Closing (but without giving effect to the
payments contemplated by Section 2.01(a)(i)) (the “Audited Closing Cash”).
The Proposed Closing Balance Sheet and the Audited Closing Balance Sheet shall be prepared
based upon the books and records of the Company Parties in accordance with GAAP and, to the
extent applicable, consistent with the past practices of the Company Parties (but without
giving effect to the payments contemplated by Section 2.01(a)(i)). The parties will
use commercially reasonable efforts to cause Crowe to complete and deliver the Audited
Closing Balance Sheet to Seller and Purchaser within sixty (60) days after Crowe’s receipt
of the Proposed Closing Balance Sheet (the date of such delivery, the “Closing Audit
Date”). The parties shall cooperate with Crowe in connection with such audit, and shall
provide Crowe with all books, records and other papers necessary for such purpose. The
parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause Crowe to make available to the
parties Crowe’s books, records and other papers related to the final amounts set forth on
the Audited Closing Balance Sheet, including work papers, in connection with Crowe’s
preparation of the Audited Closing Balance Sheet.

          (ii) Within thirty (30) days after the Closing Audit Date, Purchaser shall deliver to
Seller Purchaser’s calculation of (x) the Stockholder Equity, which shall be calculated
based on the Audited Closing Balance Sheet, (y) the cash and cash
equivalents of Holdings and its Subsidiaries, determined in accordance with GAAP as in

3

 

effect on the date hereof, as of immediately prior to the Closing (and, for the avoidance of
doubt, without giving effect to the use of such cash and cash equivalents in accordance with
Section 2.01(a)(i)), which shall be calculated based on the Audited Closing Cash
(the “Proposed Cash Amount”), and (z) the aggregate amount outstanding on the
capital leases of the Company, determined in accordance with GAAP as in effect on the date
hereof, as of immediately prior to the Closing (the “Proposed Capital Leases
Amount”) in each case together with reasonable documentation in support thereof.
Purchaser’s calculation of Stockholder Equity, the Proposed Cash Amount and the Proposed
Capital Leases Amount shall be final and binding on the Parties unless within forty-five
(45) days after Seller’s receipt of Purchaser’s calculation of Stockholder Equity, the
Proposed Cash Amount and the Proposed Capital Leases Amount Seller shall give Purchaser a
notice of objection (an “Objection Notice”). The Objection Notice shall specify
each item Seller objects to in Purchaser’s calculations of Stockholder Equity, the Proposed
Cash Amount and/or the Proposed Capital Leases Amount, together with a calculation of each
disputed amount and reasonable documentation in support thereof. Any item in Purchaser’s
calculation of Stockholder Equity, the Proposed Cash Amount or the Proposed Capital Leases
Amount that is not objected to in the Objection Notice shall be deemed agreed and shall be
final and binding on the parties.

          (iii) From and after the Closing Date and prior to the date the Objection Notice is
required to be timely delivered, Purchaser shall make available to Seller and any of its
accountants and advisors, upon reasonable request and during the Company’s normal business
hours, the Company Parties’ accounting personnel, (including the chief financial officer),
and the books and records of the Company Parties and any other documents relating to the
preparation of the Audited Closing Balance Sheet, Purchaser’s calculation of Stockholder
Equity, the Cash Adjustment and the Capital Leases Adjustment, and shall use reasonable
efforts to make available to Seller the Company Parties’ and Purchaser’s accountants, for
the purposes of determining whether to deliver an Objection Notice. Purchaser agrees that
following the Closing Date and prior to the completion of the Audited Closing Balance Sheet
and the final determination of Stockholder Equity, the Cash Adjustment and the Capital
Leases Adjustment in accordance with this Section 2.02, Purchaser shall, and shall
cause the Company Parties to, preserve and not alter or destroy any of the books and records
of any Company Party relating to the calculation of the Audited Closing Balance Sheet, the
Cash Adjustment or the Capital Leases Adjustment.

          (iv) In the event an Objection Notice is given, Purchaser and Seller, together with
their respective accountants and other advisors, shall use commercially reasonable efforts
to resolve any objection and arrive at a final determination. If Purchaser and Seller are
unable to arrive at a final determination within twenty (20) days after an Objection Notice
is given, the matter shall be submitted to PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (the “Independent
Firm”). The Independent Firm shall make a final determination in writing as to all
matters in dispute within thirty (30) days after its appointment, provided, that,
notwithstanding the Independent Firm’s determination of the Stockholder Equity, the Cash
Adjustment and/or the Capital Leases Adjustment, for purposes hereof (A) the Stockholder
Equity shall be neither less than the
amount of Stockholder Equity as calculated by Purchaser and delivered to Seller
pursuant

4

 

to Section 2.02(a)(ii) nor greater than the amount specified by Seller in
the Objection Notice, (B) the final amount of cash and cash equivalents of Holdings and its
Subsidiaries as of the Closing used to determine the Cash Adjustment (calculated in
accordance with the provisions set forth in this Section 2.02(a)) shall be neither
less than the amount of such cash and cash equivalents as calculated by Purchaser and
delivered to Seller pursuant to Section 2.02(a)(ii) nor greater than the amount
specified by Seller in the Objection Notice, and (C) the final aggregate amount outstanding
on the capital leases of the Company used to determine the Capital Leases Adjustment
(calculated in accordance with the provisions set forth in this Section 2.02(a))
shall be neither less than the amount specified by Seller in the Objection Notice nor
greater than the amount as calculated by Purchaser and delivered to Seller pursuant to
Section 2.02(a)(ii), and in each case shall, absent mathematical error, be final and
binding on the parties. The Stockholder Equity as finally determined in accordance with the
procedures and provisions set forth in this Section 2.02(a) is hereinafter referred
to as the “Final Stockholder Equity”. The amount of cash and cash equivalents of
Holdings and its Subsidiaries as of the Closing as finally determined in accordance with the
procedures and provisions set forth in this Section 2.02(a) is hereinafter referred
to as the “Final Closing Cash”. The aggregate amount outstanding on the capital
leases of the Company used to determine the Capital Leases Adjustment as finally determined
in accordance with the procedures and provisions set forth in this Section 2.02(a)
is hereinafter referred to as the “Final Capital Leases Amount.”

          (v) Within five (5) days after the engagement of the Independent Firm, Seller and
Purchaser shall each furnish, at their own expense, to the Independent Firm and the other
party, a written statement of their position with respect to each matter in dispute as set
forth in the Objection Notice. Within five (5) days after expiration of the original five
(5) day period, Seller and Purchaser may deliver to the Independent Firm and to the other
party their response to the other’s position on matters in dispute. With each submission,
Seller and Purchaser may also furnish to the Independent Firm such other information and
documents as they deem relevant or such information and documents as may be requested by the
Independent Firm with appropriate copies or notification being given to the other party.
The Independent Firm may, in its discretion, conduct a conference concerning the
disagreement with Seller and Purchaser, at which conference each party shall have the right
to present additional documents, materials and other information and to have present its
advisors, counsel and accountants. In connection with such process, there shall be no
hearings, oral examinations, testimony, depositions, discovery or other similar proceedings
conducted by any party or by the Independent Firm.

          (vi) Purchaser shall pay any fees owing to Crowe in connection with its engagement
under this Section 2.02(a). Any fees owing to the Independent Firm in connection
with its engagement under this Section 2.02(a) shall be paid by Purchaser and/or
Seller in direct proportion to the amounts of the disputed items that are lost by Purchaser
and/or Seller, as the case may be, determined at the time of the final resolution of this
matter by the Independent Firm.

5

 

          (vii) In the event that the Final Stockholder Equity is less than $47,500,000, Seller
and each of the Seller Owners jointly and severally shall pay Purchaser the amount equal to
the difference in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds. In the event that
the Final Stockholder Equity is greater or equal to $47,500,000, no adjustment to the
Purchase Price shall be made pursuant to this Section 2.02(a)(vii).

          (viii) In the event of an upward Cash Adjustment as finally determined pursuant to this
Section 2.02(a), Purchaser shall pay Seller the amount equal to the upward Cash
Adjustment, and in the event of a downward Cash Adjustment as finally determined pursuant to
this Section 2.02(a) Seller and each of the Seller Owners jointly and severally
shall pay Purchaser the amount equal to the downward Cash Adjustment as finally determined
pursuant to this Section 2.02(a), in each case, in cash by wire transfer of
immediately available funds.

          (ix) In the event that the Estimated Capital Leases Amount exceeds the Final Capital
Leases Amount, Purchaser shall pay Seller the amount equal to the difference in cash by wire
transfer of immediately available funds. In the event that the Final Capital Leases Amount
exceeds the Estimated Capital Leases Amount, Seller and each of the Seller Owners jointly
and severally shall pay Purchaser the amount equal to the difference in cash by wire
transfer of immediately available funds.

          (x) Seller and/or Purchaser shall make any payments pursuant to Sections

          SECTION
3.10 Real Property. 

          (a) Section 3.10(a) of the Disclosure
Schedule lists all real property interests owned by the Company (the “Owned Real Property”)
and any contract for the purchase or sale of real property. The Company has good and marketable
title to the Owned Real Property, free and clear of all Liens except Permitted Liens or those
exceptions to title identified on Section 3.10(a) of the Disclosure Schedule. Each parcel of Owned
Real Property, together with all improvements located thereon, (i) complies in all material
respects with all covenants, conditions and restrictions affecting such property, either recorded
or of which the Company Parties have knowledge, (ii) is not presently occupied or used by any party
other than its owner, (iii) other than the right of Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement, is not
subject to any option to purchase or lease, right of first refusal to purchase or lease,
reversionary interest or other instrument or Lien, whether recorded or unrecorded, which would
prohibit or require the consent or waiver of another party to the transactions contemplated hereby
or any subsequent sale or lease of the property, and (iv) except for Permitted Liens or as set
forth on Section 3.10(a) of the Disclosure Schedule, is not subject to any mortgage, deed of trust
or other Lien securing debt which will not be entirely released and satisfied at the Closing. The
Company has delivered to Purchaser or made available on the Datasite or the Purchaser already had
in its possession (to the extent they predated ownership by the Company) accurate and complete
copies of all title insurance policies, surveys and other documents and records relating to the
Owned Real Property that Purchaser or its representatives have requested to the extent that such
material was actually in the possession of the Company Parties.

          (b) Section 3.10(b) of the Disclosure Schedule sets forth the address of all leases,
subleases, licenses or occupancy agreements, whether written or oral, of all real property to which
the Company is a party or is bound (the “Real Property Leases” and the premises that are
the subject of such Real Property Leases, the “Leased Real Property”). True and correct
copies of each of the written Real Property Leases (including all amendments thereto) have been
delivered to Purchaser or made available on the Datasite. Except as set forth on Section 3.10(b)
of the Disclosure Schedule, the Company has valid and enforceable leasehold interests in the Leased
Real Property, free and clear of all Liens (other than Permitted Liens), and except as set forth in
Section 3.10(b) of the Disclosure Schedule, each Real Property Lease affords the
Company peaceful and undisturbed possession of the Leased Real Property covered thereby, and
there exists no event of default or event, occurrence, condition or act (including the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement) on the part of the Company, or, to the knowledge of the Company
Parties, on the part of the lessor thereunder, which, with the giving of notice, the lapse of time
or the happening of any further event or condition, would become a material default under such Real
Property Lease, give rise to a right in the lessor to terminate the Real Property Lease or change
any of the material terms thereof or render the lessee liable to incur any expenditure under such
Real Property Lease. In the event any such Real Property Lease requires the lessee to exercise, on
or before the date hereof, an option to renew in order to continue the term thereof, the Company
has properly exercised such option to renew.

          (c) To the knowledge of the Company Parties, the Owned Real Property and the Leased Real
Property (collectively, the “Real Property”) are the only real property necessary

13

 

or
required in connection with the operation of the Business as it is now being conducted. To the
knowledge of the Company Parties, the Real Property and improvements thereon may lawfully be used
in connection with the Business.

          Notwithstanding the foregoing, no representation or warranty is made in this Section
3.10 with respect to environmental, health or safety matters, which are covered exclusively in
Sections 3.23 and 3.28.

          SECTION
3.11 Machinery and Equipment.

     All material machinery, equipment and
other tangible assets of the Company, necessary and utilized in the operation of the Business, are
in good operating condition, subject to normal wear and tear, and in a state of repair sufficient
for the conduct of normal operations without, to the knowledge of the Company Parties, the
necessity of any capital expenditure in excess of $50,000 in the aggregate. The material tangible
assets and personal properties of the Company (including material leased tangible assets and
personal properties, if any) are adequate to enable it to conduct the Business as now being
conducted. The Company has no commitment or plan to make any capital expenditure in excess of
$100,000 in the fiscal year 2010 that has not been set forth on Section 3.11 of the Disclosure
Schedule.

          SECTION
3.12 Inventories.

     
The inventories of the Company consist of raw
materials, work in process, and finished goods of a quality and quantity usable or salable in the
normal course of the Business, except for any slow moving, obsolete inventory or inventory of
below-standard quality, all of which has been written off or written down to realizable value or
for which there has been a reserve established pursuant to the Financial Statements. The valuation
at which the inventories of the Company are carried reflects the normal inventory valuation policy
of the Company (applied in accordance with GAAP).

          SECTION
3.13 Accounts Receivable.

     
The accounts receivable of the Company result
from bona fide sales made by the Company in the ordinary course of business consistent with past
practice. The amounts due in respect of such accounts receivable are not, to the knowledge of the
Company Parties, in dispute
and no setoffs or counterclaims have been asserted against any such accounts receivable other
than (i) provisions for doubtful accounts and other reserves in the accounts receivable and (ii)
setoff warranty claims netted against the account receivable of the Company Parties’ dealers in the
ordinary course of business.

          SECTION

     Purchaser is in compliance in all material respects with all applicable New York Stock
Exchange (“NYSE”) continued listing requirements. There are no proceedings pending or
threatened in writing, or to the Purchaser’s knowledge, threatened orally, against Purchaser
relating to the continued listing of the common stock of Purchaser on the NYSE and Purchaser has
not received any written, or to the Purchaser’s knowledge, oral notice of the delisting of its

not contravene any rules and regulations of the NYSE applicable to Purchaser and does not require
the approval of Purchaser’s stockholders under any stockholder approval provision of such rules and
regulations.

under any similar provision of state, local or non-United States law) with respect to its
acquisition of the Purchased Shares.

          (b) Certain State Tax Returns. Purchaser and Seller shall cooperate to file original
or amended Tax Returns in Indiana, and original or amended Tax Returns in States other than
Indiana, for certain Pre-Closing Tax Periods, in each case to reflect an apportionment of

34

 

income of
the Company Parties away from Indiana and to the other States. Notwithstanding the other
provisions of this Section 5.03, such Tax Returns (i) shall be prepared and filed in
Purchaser’s sole discretion by Purchaser’s accountants at the sole cost of Purchaser and (ii) in
the case of States other than Indiana, may, if Purchaser so determines, be filed under the
voluntary disclosure procedures of the applicable State. Notwithstanding Section 8.02(a)
and Section 8.04(a), under no circumstance shall Seller or any Seller Owner be required to
indemnify any Purchaser Indemnified Person for any Tax or other Loss arising as a direct or
indirect result of the filing of any Tax Return described in this Section 5.03(b). If, as
a result of all of the Tax Returns filed pursuant to this Section 5.03(b), taken together,
there is a net Tax cost or net Tax benefit to the Company Parties, then that net Tax cost and net
Tax Benefit shall be for the account of Purchaser and the Company Parties. Purchaser and the
Company Parties shall indemnify and hold harmless each Historic Tax Indemnitee from and against any
Tax or other Loss for any Pre-Closing Tax Period arising as a direct or indirect result of the
filing of any Tax Return described in this Section 5.03(b). As used in this Agreement,
“Historic Tax Indemnitee” shall mean the Persons listed on Annex 5.03(b).

          (c) Seller shall cause to be timely filed all Tax Returns of the Company Parties that are due
on or prior to the Closing Date. The applicable Company Party shall timely pay any Taxes shown to
be due thereon. Purchaser shall file or cause to be filed all other Tax Returns required to be
filed by the Company Parties in respect of any Pre-Closing Tax Period. Purchaser shall not cause
or permit any Company Party to file an amended Tax Return, or to modify any Tax election, of any
Company Party with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period, unless (i) Seller consents in its sole
discretion, or (ii) Purchaser receives and provides to Seller written advice of reputable Tax
advisors, in substance reasonably acceptable to Seller, to the effect that such amended return or
modification is required by law, or (iii) in the case of such a
filing solely to claim a refund or credit of Taxes described in the proviso to the first
sentence of Section 5.03(f), Seller consents in its reasonable discretion.

          (d) With respect to each Tax Return relating to a Company Party for a Pre-Closing Tax Period
that is required to be filed by Purchaser pursuant to Section 5.03(c), (i) all such Tax
Returns shall be filed in accordance with the prior positions and practices of the Company Parties,
unless Purchaser receives and provides to Seller written advice of reputable Tax advisors, in
substance reasonably acceptable to Seller, that a change is required by law, and (ii) Purchaser
shall provide each such Tax Return to Seller at least thirty (30) days prior to the due date of
such Tax Return for Seller’s review, and Purchaser shall make all changes reasonably requested by
Seller. The applicable Company Party shall pay any Taxes shown to be due on any such Tax Return,
to the extent that the aggregate unpaid Taxes of the Company Parties, as of the Closing Date, do
not exceed the amount of the reserve for Taxes on the Audited Closing Balance Sheet (the “Tax
Reserve”). Seller shall remit to Purchaser in accordance with Section 8.04 the amount,
if any, by which the Taxes shown to be due on any such Tax Return cause the unpaid Taxes of the
Company Parties, as of the Closing Date, to exceed the amount of the Tax Reserve. With respect to
any Pre-Closing Tax Period, upon Seller’s reasonable request and at its expense, Purchaser shall,
or shall cause the applicable Company Party to, initiate a claim for a refund of Taxes, or amend
any Tax Return, of a Company Party.

          (e) With respect to Tax Returns of the Company Parties for each Straddle Period, (i) all such
Tax Returns shall be filed in accordance with the prior positions and practices

35

 

of the Company Parties, unless Purchaser, in consultation with reputable tax advisors,
determines that a change is required by law, and (ii) Purchaser shall provide each such Tax Return,
accompanied by an allocation in accordance with Section 8.04 between Seller and Purchaser
of the Taxes shown to be due on such Tax Return, to Seller at least thirty (30) days prior to the
due date of such Tax Return for Seller’s review. Each such Tax Return and allocation shall be
final and binding on Seller and Purchaser, unless, within twenty (20) days after the date of
receipt by Seller of such Tax Return and allocation, Seller delivers to Purchaser a written request
for changes to such Tax Return or allocation. If Seller delivers such a request, then Seller and
Purchaser shall undertake in good faith to resolve the issues raised in such request. If Seller
and Purchaser are unable to resolve any issue by the earlier of (i) ten (10) days after the date of
receipt by Purchaser of the request for changes or (ii) ten (10) days prior to the due date
(including any extension thereof) for filing of the Tax Return in question, then Seller and
Purchaser shall jointly engage the Independent Firm (in the manner set forth in Section
2.02) to resolve such dispute, and the decision of the Independent Firm shall be final. The
applicable Company Party shall pay any Taxes shown to be due on any such Tax Return, to the extent
that (i) such Taxes relate to the Post-Closing Tax Period or (ii) to the extent that such Taxes
relate to the Pre-Closing Tax Period, the aggregate unpaid Taxes of the Company Parties, as of the
Closing Date, do not exceed the amount of the Tax Reserve. Seller shall remit to Purchaser in
accordance with Section 8.04 the amount, if any, by which the Taxes (as relate to the
Pre-Closing Tax Period) shown to be due on any such Tax Return cause the unpaid Taxes of the
Company Parties, as of the Closing Date, to exceed the amount of the Tax Reserve.

          (f) Subject to Section 5.03(b), Seller shall be entitled to any refund or credit of
Taxes (including any interest paid thereon) of the Company Parties for any Pre-Closing Tax Period
and for the portion of any Straddle Period for which Seller is responsible pursuant to Section
8.04; provided however, that Purchaser and the Company Parties shall be
entitled to any refund or credit of Taxes (including any interest paid thereon) of the Company
Parties for any Pre-Closing Tax Period and for the portion of any Straddle Period for which Seller
is responsible pursuant to Section 8.04 to the extent the refund or credit results from the
carryback of net operating losses, if any, attributable to the Company Parties incurred in any
taxable year or portion thereof during the period beginning the day after the Closing Date and
ending on July 31, 2012. Purchaser will, and will cause the Company Parties to, execute such
documents, take reasonable additional actions and otherwise reasonably cooperate as may be
necessary for the Company Parties to perfect their rights in and obtain all Tax refunds and credits
for which any such Company Party is eligible and to which Seller is entitled. None of Purchaser or
any Company Party shall forfeit, fail to collect or otherwise minimize any Tax refund or credit to
which Seller would be entitled under this Section, whether through any election to carry forward a net operating
loss or otherwise.

          (g) If (i) a Governmental Entity asserts a claim for Taxes against any Company Party and (ii)
Seller could be responsible for any portion of those Taxes under Section 8.04 (any such
claim, a “Tax claim”), then the party hereto first receiving notice (whether directly, or
indirectly through an Affiliate of such party) of such Tax claim shall promptly provide to the
other parties hereto written notice specifying in reasonable detail the basis for such Tax claim
and shall include a copy of the relevant portion of any correspondence received from the
Governmental Entity in respect of such Tax claim; provided, however, that the

36

 

failure of such party to give such prompt and detailed notice shall not relieve the other party of any of its
obligations under Section 8.04, except if and only to the extent that the other party is
actually prejudiced thereby.

          (h) If, within sixty (60) days after Seller receives notice of a Tax claim (whether from a
Governmental Entity or pursuant to Section 5.03(a)), Seller provides to
Purchaser a written notice in which Seller elects to contest, and to control the defense or
prosecution of, such Tax claim (an “Election Notice”), then, subject to the provisions of
this Section 5.03, Seller shall have the right to defend or prosecute and the
right to control, at its sole cost and expense, such Tax claim by all appropriate proceedings.
For any Tax claim the defense or prosecution of which Seller controls (a “Seller Controlled
Proceeding”), (i) Seller shall defend or prosecute the Tax claim diligently and in good faith;
(ii) Seller shall not, without the prior written consent of Purchaser, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, enter into any compromise or settlement of such Tax
claim that would reasonably be expected to result in any material Tax for which Purchaser or any
Company Party would be responsible pursuant to Section 8.04(b); (iii) Seller
shall inform Purchaser of all material developments and events relating to such Tax claim
(including providing to Purchaser copies of relevant portions of all written materials relating to
such Tax claim); (iv) Purchaser shall provide or cause to be provided to Seller any information
reasonably requested by Seller relating to such Tax claim, and Purchaser shall otherwise cooperate
with Seller and its representatives in good faith in order to contest effectively such Tax claim;
(v) Purchaser or its authorized representative shall be entitled, at the expense of Purchaser, to
attend, but not participate in or control, all conferences, meetings and proceedings relating to
such Tax claim; and (vi) in the event that Purchaser reasonably withholds consent to a compromise
or settlement pursuant to clause (ii) above, Purchaser shall be entitled to assume the defense or
prosecution of such Tax claim, and, in any event, the liability of Seller in connection with such
Tax claim shall not exceed the amount of the liability under the proposed settlement or compromise
as to which Purchaser withheld consent.

          (i) Purchaser shall control the defense or prosecution of any Tax claim that is not a Seller
Controlled Proceeding (each, a “Purchaser Controlled Proceeding”). For any Purchaser
Controlled Proceeding, (i) Purchaser shall defend or prosecute the Tax claim diligently and in good
faith; (ii) Purchaser shall not, without the prior written consent of Seller, which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, enter into any compromise or settlement of
such Tax claim that would reasonably be expected to result in any material Tax for which Seller
would be responsible pursuant to Section 8.04; (iii) Purchaser shall inform
Seller of all material developments and events relating to such Tax claim (including providing to
Seller copies of relevant portions of all written materials relating to such Tax claim); (iv) if
requested by Purchaser, Seller shall provide or cause to be provided to Purchaser any information
reasonably requested by Purchaser relating to such Tax claim, and Seller shall otherwise cooperate
in good faith with Purchaser and its authorized representatives in order to contest effectively
such Tax claim; and (v) Seller or its authorized representatives shall be entitled, at the expense
of Seller, to attend, but not participate in or control, all conferences, meetings and proceedings
relating to such Tax claim.

          (j) In the case of a Tax claim that relates to a Straddle Period, such Tax claim shall be
prosecuted or defended and shall be controlled by (i) Seller, if the amount of Tax for

37

 

which Seller is responsible under Section 8.04(a) with respect to such Tax claim is
reasonably expected to equal or exceed the amount of Tax with respect to such Tax claim for which
Purchaser and the Company Parties are responsible under Section 8.04(b), and (ii)
Purchaser, otherwise. The reasonable documented costs incurred by Seller (in a proceeding described
in clause (i) of the preceding sentence) or by Purchaser (in a proceeding described in clause (ii)
of the preceding sentence) that are properly attributable to the Tax claim shall be divided between
and borne by the parties in accordance with their relative share of the underlying Tax liabilities
under Section 8.04. In the case of any such Tax claim, (i) the controlling party shall
provide the noncontrolling party with a timely and reasonably detailed account of each stage of
such Tax Claim and a copy of relevant portions of all documents relating to such Tax claim; (ii)
the controlling party shall consult with the noncontrolling party before taking any significant
action with respect to such Tax claim that would reasonably be expected to affect adversely the
noncontrolling party; (iii) the controlling party shall consult with the noncontrolling party and
offer the noncontrolling party an opportunity to comment before submitting any written materials
prepared or furnished in connection with such Tax claim (including, to the extent practicable, any
documents furnished to the applicable Governmental Entity in connection with any discovery request)
to the extent such materials concern matters in such Tax claim that would reasonably be expected to
affect adversely the noncontrolling party; (iv) unless the noncontrolling party otherwise consents
in writing, the controlling party shall defend the Tax claim diligently and in good faith as if the
controlling party were the only party in interest in connection with such Tax claim to the extent
that such Tax claim might adversely affect the noncontrolling party, and the noncontrolling party
shall reasonably facilitate to the extent requested by the controlling party, and shall not impede,
the controlling party’s control of such Tax claim; and (v) the controlling party shall not settle,
compromise, abandon or discharge any such Tax claim without obtaining the prior written consent,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, of the noncontrolling
party, if such settlement, compromise, abandonment or discharge would reasonably be expected to
have an adverse impact on the noncontrolling party. In the event that the noncontrolling party
reasonably withholds such consent pursuant to clause (v) of the preceding sentence, the
noncontrolling party shall be entitled to assume the defense of such Tax claim; provided,
however, that the original controlling party’s liability in connection with such Tax claim
shall not exceed the amount that it would have been responsible for under the proposed settlement,
compromise, abandonment or discharge.

          (k) In the case of any Tax audit, examination, contest or other proceeding (other than a Tax
Proceeding that involves a Tax claim) (“Tax Proceeding”) of any Company Party, to the
extent that such Tax Proceeding would reasonably be expected to result in any non-de minimis Tax to
a Company Party for which Seller could reasonably be expected to be responsible pursuant to
Section 8.04(a): (i) Purchaser shall not, without the prior written consent of
Seller, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, enter into any
compromise or settlement of such Tax Proceeding, (ii) Purchaser shall inform Seller of all material
developments and events relating to such Tax Proceeding (including providing to Seller copies of
relevant portions of all written materials relating to such Tax Proceeding), (iii) such Tax
Proceeding shall be defended or prosecuted diligently by Purchaser in good faith as if Purchaser
were the only party in interest in such Tax Proceeding and (iv) Seller or its authorized
representatives shall be entitled, at the expense of Seller, to attend, but not participate in or
control, all conferences, meetings and proceedings relating to such Tax Proceeding. In the event
that Seller reasonably withholds consent to a compromise or settlement pursuant to clause (i) of

38

 

the previous sentence, Seller shall be entitled to assume the defense of such Tax Proceeding;
provided, however, that the liability of Purchaser in connection with such Tax
Proceeding shall not exceed the amount of such liability under the proposed settlement or
compromise as to which Seller withheld its consent. This Section 5.03(k) shall
not eliminate or reduce any obligation of Purchaser imposed by other
provisions of this Section 5.03.

          (l) Seller, Purchaser and the Company Parties shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent
reasonably requested by any another party to this Agreement, in connection with the filing of any
Tax Return of a Company Party, in any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes
of a Company Party, and in allowing Seller to review Tax Returns of the Company Parties for
Pre-Closing Tax Periods and Straddle Periods. Such cooperation shall include the retention and
(upon the other party’s request) the provision of records and information that are reasonably
relevant to any such audit, litigation or other proceeding and making employees available on a
mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any materials
provided hereunder. Seller, Purchaser, and the Company Parties agree to retain all books and
records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Company Parties and that relate to a
Pre-Closing Tax Period or a Straddle Period until the expiration of the applicable statute of
limitations (and, if notified in writing by another party, any extensions thereof), and to abide by
all record retention agreements entered into with any Governmental Entity. The parties agree to
give each other party reasonable written notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any
such books and records, and if another party so requests, to give such other party possession of
such books and records. Seller, Purchaser and the Company Parties further agree, upon request, to
use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any Tax
authority or any other Person or take any other action as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or
eliminate any Tax that could be imposed on any party hereto (including with respect to the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement).

           SECTION 5.04 Indemnification of Officers and Directors. 

          The provisions of the
Organizational Documents of the Company Parties with respect to the limitation or elimination of
liability and indemnification of directors or officers in effect immediately prior to the Closing
shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified for a period of six (6) years after the
Closing in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of individuals who at or
prior to the Closing were directors or officers of the Company Parties, including any such director
or officer who, at the request of the Company Parties, served as an officer or director or in any
other capacity of another entity, and were entitled to indemnification pursuant to the
Organizational Documents of the Company Parties. The provisions of this Section 5.04 are
intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each director or officer of the
Company Parties or other Person entitled to indemnification under the Organizational Documents of
the Company Parties immediately prior to the Closing, and each such Person’s heirs, legatees,
representatives, successors and assigns, it being expressly agreed that such Persons shall be
third-party beneficiaries of this Section 5.04.

          SECTION 5.05 Litigation Support.

     From and after the Closing, in the event and
for so long as any party hereto actively is contesting or defending against any action, suit,
proceeding, hearing, investigation, charge, complaint, claim or demand in connection with any fact, situation, circumstance, status,
condition, activity, practice, plan, occurrence, event, incident, action, failure to act, or
transaction on or prior to the Closing Date involving the

39

 

Company Parties, the other parties shall reasonably cooperate with the contesting or defending party and its counsel in the contest or
defense, make available its personnel, and provide such testimony and access to its books and
records as shall be necessary in connection with the contest or defense.

          SECTION 5.06 Legends. 

          (a) Until removed pursuant to the provisions of the
investor letters signed by each of the Seller Limited Partners (the “Investor Letters”),
each certificate representing the Equity Consideration shall have stamped, printed or typed thereon
the following legend:

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT
OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR
OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, EXCEPT (1) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND A CURRENT PROSPECTUS, (2) IN ACCORDANCE WITH RULE 144
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, OR (3) PURSUANT TO ANOTHER APPLICABLE EXEMPTION FROM
REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT.

          (b) In addition, each certificate issued to the parties to the Stock Restriction Agreements
shall have stamped, printed or typed thereon the legend required pursuant to the Stock Restriction
Agreement.

          SECTION 5.07 Issuance of Equity Consideration.

     Immediately following the determination of the closing price of Purchaser’s Common Stock on the
Closing Date, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser the final Annex 2.01(b) setting forth the
allocation of the Equity Consideration among the Seller Limited Partners. Immediately following
Purchaser’s receipt of the final Annex 2.01(b) from Seller (and in no event after the Closing
Date), Purchaser shall submit an instruction letter to Purchaser’s transfer agent in a form and
substance acceptable to Seller and Purchaser shall cause such transfer agent to issue the Equity
Consideration to the Seller Limited Partners in the amounts and names set forth on the final Annex
2.01(b). Purchaser shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the transfer agent to issue such
Equity Consideration within two (2) Business Days and shall provide to the transfer agent any
documents, fees and other expenses required by the transfer agent to issue the Equity Consideration
to the Seller Limited Partners.

Sources”) in connection with, the circumstances underlying the claims giving rise to
indemnification hereunder. Subject to the limitations set forth below, to the extent that any Loss
is eligible to be covered by insurance policies maintained by the Company prior to the Closing or
any Collateral Sources, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to recover any Losses
from such insurance policies or Collateral Sources; provided that if any Purchaser
Indemnified Party makes any payment with respect to such Losses and within ninety (90) days of
making such payment such Purchaser Indemnified Party: (x) has not been reimbursed in full by the
insurance carrier and/or Collateral Sources under the applicable policy and/or contractual
indemnities for which recovery has been sought under this Section 8.02(a) and/or (y) any
such insurance carrier delivers a notice of denial of coverage or a reservation of rights or
similar letters under such policy or any such Collateral Source delivers a notice denying its
indemnification obligation, then such Purchaser Indemnified Party shall be permitted to immediately
seek indemnification for any Losses (including Losses associated with seeking recovery from the
insurance carrier and/or Collateral Sources) from Seller and Seller Owners as contemplated by this
Section 8.02(a). In connection with the foregoing, the Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall
not be under any obligation to keep Seller or Seller Owners notified of its correspondence with any
insurance carrier other than to inform such parties of the conditions set forth in clauses (x)
and/or (y) above.

          (b) Indemnification by Purchaser. Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and hold Seller
indemnify, defend and hold Purchaser and its officers, directors, employees, Subsidiaries and
affiliates (“Seller Indemnified Persons”) harmless from and against any and all Losses
incurred by any Seller Indemnified Persons arising out of, resulting from or attributable to (i)
any breach of any representation or warranty made by Purchaser contained in this Agreement, and/or
(ii) the nonperformance of any covenant or obligation to be performed by Purchaser under this
Agreement; provided, however, that Losses shall be reduced by any Tax Benefit
Amount and any proceeds (after deducting any costs of collection) collected by Seller or Seller Owners
pursuant to Seller or Seller Owners insurance policies or Collateral Sources in connection with the
circumstances underlying the claims giving rise to indemnification hereunder.

          (c) To the extent that there is an increase in the Tax Benefit Amount of any Indemnitee (or an
affiliate thereof) with respect to a Loss that is the subject of an indemnification payment under
this Agreement, the Indemnitor shall be entitled to such increase and the Indemnitee shall promptly
(and in any event, no later than ten (10) days after filing of the Tax Return(s) associated with
the increase in Tax Benefit Amount) pay to the Indemnitor the increase in the Tax Benefit Amount at
such times and to the extent that the Indemnitee (or affiliate thereof) actually realizes an
increase in a Tax Benefit Amount. For purposes of this Agreement, (x) “Tax Benefit Amount” shall
mean, for any taxable period of any Person with respect to any Loss, the excess of (i) such
Person’s cumulative liability for Taxes through the end of such taxable year (calculated by
excluding all Tax Attributes attributable to the Loss) over (ii) such Person’s actual cumulative
liability for Taxes through the end of such taxable year (calculated by taking into account all Tax
Attributes attributable to the Loss), and (y) “Tax Attribute” shall mean, with respect to any
Person, any item of loss, deduction, credit, basis or other Tax item of a type that decreases the
amount of Taxes paid by, or increases the amount of a Tax refund paid to, such Person.

          SECTION 8.03 Limitations on Indemnification. 

     Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary set forth in this Agreement:

          (a) Neither Seller nor any Seller Owner shall be obligated to indemnify any Purchaser
Indemnified Person for breaches of representations and warranties pursuant to Section
8.02(a)(i) (other than Fundamental Representations) and Purchaser shall not be obligated to
indemnify any Seller Indemnified Person for breaches of representations and warranties pursuant to
Section 8.02(b)(i) (other than Fundamental Representations), in each case, for any claim
the Losses for which do not exceed Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000) (the “Threshold”).

          “Fundamental Representations” means the representations and warranties set forth in
Section 3.01 (Organization, Good Standing), Section 3.02 (Capitalization;
Subsidiaries), Section 3.01A (Organization, Good Standing), Section 3.02A (Title),
Section 3.03A (Authority), Section 3.07A (Ownership), Section 3.01B
(Organization, Good Standing), Section 3.02B (Authority), Section 4.01
(Organization; Good Standing), Section 4.02 (Authority) and Section 4.05
(Capitalization of Purchaser).

          (b) Neither Seller nor any Seller Owner shall be obligated to indemnify any Purchaser
Indemnified Person for breaches of representations and warranties pursuant to Section
8.02(a)(i) (other than Fundamental Representations) and Purchaser shall not be obligated to
indemnify any Seller Indemnified Person for breaches of representations and warranties pursuant to
Section 8.02(b)(i) (other than Fundamental Representations), in each case, until the
Purchaser Indemnified Persons or the Seller Indemnified Persons, as applicable, have incurred
aggregate Losses in excess of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) (the “Deductible”) and then
only in excess of the Deductible; provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, no single
Loss which is less than the Threshold shall be applied to satisfying the Deductible.

          (c) The maximum amount of all monetary Losses (the “Cap”) subject to indemnification
by Seller and Seller Owners, on the one hand, or Purchaser, on the other hand, pursuant to this
Article VIII shall be as follows:

          (i) For Losses arising out of, resulting from or attributable to breaches of
representations and warranties (other than Fundamental Representations) for which
indemnification pursuant to Section 8.02(a)(i) or Section 8.02(b)(i), as
applicable, is available, Fifteen Million Dollars ($15,000,000) in the aggregate;

          (ii) For all other Losses for which indemnification is available pursuant to pursuant
to Section 8.02(a), Section 8.02(b), Section 8.04(a) or Section
8.04(b) (other than those subject to the Cap set forth in Section 8.03(c)(i)),
the Purchase Price. In no event shall Seller’s and Seller Owners’, on the one hand, or
Purchaser’s, on the other hand, indemnification obligations under this Agreement exceed, in
the aggregate, the Purchase Price.

The value of Equity Consideration to be included in the Purchase Price for the purposes of
Section 8.03(c) shall be equal to the product of 4,300,000 multiplied by the
per share average closing price for the ten (10) consecutive trading days prior to the date
hereof.

45

 

          (d) No party responsible for indemnification under this Article VIII, shall be
liable for any consequential damages, including loss of revenue, income or profits, loss in value
of assets or securities, punitive, special or indirect damages, relating to any breach of this
Agreement, except in the case of fraud, intentional misconduct or intentional misrepresentation.

          (e) In any case where a Purchaser Indemnified Person recovers under insurance policies or from
Collateral Sources any amount in respect of a matter for which such Purchaser Indemnified Person
previously was indemnified pursuant to this Agreement, such Purchaser Indemnified Person shall
promptly pay over to Seller the amount so recovered but not in excess of the sum of (i) any amount
previously so paid to or on behalf of such Purchaser Indemnified Person in respect of such matter,
and (ii) any amount expended by Seller in pursuing or defending any claim arising out of such
matter.

          (f) In any case where a Seller Indemnified Person recovers under insurance policies or from
Collateral Sources any amount in respect of a matter for which such Seller Indemnified Person
previously was indemnified pursuant to this Agreement, such Seller Indemnified Person shall
promptly pay over to Purchaser the amount so recovered but not in excess of the sum of (i) any
amount previously so paid to or on behalf of such Seller Indemnified Person in respect of such
matter, and (ii) any amount expended by Purchaser in pursuing or defending any claim arising out of
such matter.

          (g) AFTER THE CLOSING, EXCEPT IN THE EVENT OF FRAUD, INTENTIONAL MISCONDUCT OR INTENTIONAL
MISREPRESENTATION INDEMNIFICATION PURSUANT TO THE PROVISIONS OF ARTICLES VIII AND
IX SHALL BE THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR MONETARY DAMAGES FOR THE PARTIES HERETO FOR
ANY MISREPRESENTATION OR BREACH OF ANY WARRANTY, COVENANT OR OTHER PROVISION CONTAINED IN THIS
AGREEMENT OR IN ANY CERTIFICATE DELIVERED PURSUANT HERETO (INCLUDING WITH RESPECT TO ANY
ENVIRONMENTAL, HEALTH OR SAFETY MATTERS, INCLUDING THOSE ARISING UNDER CERCLA OR ANY OTHER
ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS OR ANY OTHER ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS OR TAX MATTERS); PROVIDED THAT
NOTHING IN THIS SECTION 8.03(g) SHALL LIMIT PURCHASER’S ABILITY TO RECOVER MONETARY DAMAGES FROM
THE PARTIES TO, AND PURSUANT TO, THE STOCK RESTRICTION AGREEMENTS, THE RELEASES, THE REGISTRATION
RIGHTS AGREEMENT, THE NON-COMPETITION AGREEMENTS OR THE INVESTOR LETTERS.

          (h) In valuing a Loss, no adjustment shall be made as a result of any multiple, increase
factor, or any other premium over fair market value, book or historical value which may have been
paid by Purchaser for the Purchased Stock whether or not such multiple, increase factor or other
premium had been used by Purchaser at the time of, or in connection with, calculating or preparing
its proposed purchase price for the Purchased Stock.

          SECTION 8.04 Tax Indemnification.

          (a) Seller and each Seller Owner shall,
jointly and severally, indemnify Purchaser Indemnified Persons and hold them harmless from and
against, any loss, claim, liability, expense, or other damage attributable to (i) all Taxes (or the
non-payment thereof) of the Company Parties for all taxable periods
ending on or before the

46

 

Closing
Date and the portion through the end of the Closing Date for any taxable period that includes (but
does not end on) the Closing Date (“Pre-Closing Tax Period”), (ii) all Taxes of any member
of an affiliated, consolidated, combined or unitary group of which the Company Parties (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 non-U.S. law
or regulation, and (iii) any and all Taxes of any Person (other than the Company Parties) imposed
on the Company Parties as a transferee or successor, by contract (other than (x) any contract
solely among the Company Parties and (y) any credit or other commercial contract or agreement the
principal purpose of which does not relate to Taxes) or pursuant to any law, rule, or regulation,
which Taxes relate to an event or transaction occurring before the Closing; provided,
however, that in the case of clauses (i), (ii), and (iii) above, Seller and Seller Owners shall be
liable (jointly and severally) only to the extent that such Taxes exceed the sum of the Tax Reserve
and the amount of any refund or credit of Taxes described in the proviso to the first sentence of
Section 5.03(f) to which Purchaser or the Company Parties are entitled (to the extent such
refund or credit is not already accounted for in the Tax Reserve). Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement, in calculating the Taxes for which Seller and Seller Owners, on the
one hand, and Purchaser and the Company Parties, on the other hand, are responsible for pursuant to
Section 8.04(a) and Section 8.04(b), any items of income and gain that arise after
the Closing on the Closing Date and that are not in the ordinary course of business of the Company
Parties shall be deemed to arise on the day immediately succeeding the Closing Date. Seller and
Seller Owners shall reimburse Purchaser for any Taxes of the Company Parties that are the
responsibility of Seller and Seller Owners pursuant to this Section 8.04(a) within fifteen
(15) Business Days after payment of such Taxes by Purchaser or the Company Parties.

          (b) Purchaser and the Company Parties shall, jointly and severally, indemnify and hold
harmless Seller and Seller Indemnified Persons from and against any Taxes of the Company Parties
(x) for any Post-Closing Tax Period or, to the extent that the responsibility for such Taxes is
allocable to Purchaser under Section 8.04(c), for any Straddle Period, or (y) arising from
any action taken by Purchaser or any Company Party on the Closing Date (after the Closing) that is
not in the ordinary course of business.

          (c) For purposes of this Agreement, including in determining the amount of Taxes for which
Seller or Purchaser is responsible under Section 8.04(a) or Section 8.04(b):

          (i) In the case of any Taxes based on the income or receipts of the Company Parties
that are payable with respect to a taxable period that includes but does not end on the
Closing Date (each, a “Straddle Period”), the portion of such Taxes allocable to (x)
the portion of the Straddle Period ending on or before the Closing Date (for which Seller
shall be responsible under Section 8.04(a)) and (y) the portion of the Straddle
Period beginning on the day next succeeding the Closing Date (for which Purchaser shall be
responsible under Section 8.04(b)) shall be determined on the basis of a deemed
closing at the end of the Closing Date of the books and records of the Company Parties.

          (ii) In the case of any Taxes (other than Taxes covered by clause (A) above) of the
Company Parties that are payable with respect to a Straddle Period, the portion of such
Taxes allocable to the portion of such period ending on or before the

47

 

Closing Date (for
which Seller shall be responsible under Section 8.04(a)) shall be equal to the
product of such Taxes multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days
in the Straddle Period from the beginning of the Straddle Period through and including the
Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire Straddle
Period, and the remaining such Taxes shall be allocable to the portion of the Straddle
Period beginning on the day next succeeding the Closing Date (for which Purchaser shall be
responsible under Section 8.04(b).

          SECTION 8.05 Indemnification Procedures.

          (a) If Purchaser, on the one hand, or
Seller, on the other hand, shall receive notice of any matter which such party or any of its
officers, directors Subsidiaries, employees, agents, Subsidiaries or affiliates (any of the
foregoing, an “Indemnitee”), has determined has given, or, with respect to any matters
other than a breach of a representation or warranty set forth in Section  3.24, is
reasonably likely to result in, a right of indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnitee
shall promptly give the indemnifying party (the “Indemnitor”) written notice of such claim,
stating the amount of the Losses, if known, and method of computation thereof, all with reasonable
particularity and including documentary proof, if available, and containing a reference to the
provisions of this Agreement in respect of which such right of indemnification is claimed or
arises; provided, however, that failure to so notify the Indemnitor shall not
relieve the Indemnitor from any liability which it may have on account of the claim, except to the
extent the Indemnitor shall have been actually and materially prejudiced by such failure.

          (b) If an Indemnitee shall receive notice of any claim or proceeding initiated by a third
party which is or may be subject to indemnification (other than in the case of a Tax claim or Tax
Proceeding, which shall be governed by the provisions of Section 5.03) (each, a “Third
Party Claim”), the Indemnitee shall promptly give the Indemnitor written notice of such Third
Party Claim; provided, however, that failure to so notify the Indemnitor shall not
relieve the Indemnitor from any liability which it may have on account of the Third Party Claim,
except to the extent the Indemnitor shall have been actually and materially prejudiced by such
failure. If the Indemnitor acknowledges in writing its obligation to indemnify the Indemnitee
hereunder against all Losses that may result from such Third Party Claim and the Indemnitee is
reasonably satisfied that the Indemnitor has sufficient funds available to pay any Losses resulting
from such Third Party Claim, then the Indemnitor shall be entitled, at its option, to assume and
control the defense of such claim by counsel of its own choice and at its own expense,
provided that the Indemnitor and its counsel shall proceed with diligence and good faith
with respect thereto and Indemnitor shall be obligated to post any bonds required in connection
with such Third Party Claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnitee shall have the right to
control the defense of such Third Party Claim and employ separate counsel in such Third Party Claim
and the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnitor if: (i) the
Indemnitor has failed to promptly assume the defense and employ counsel, (ii) the Indemnitor fails
to conduct the defense of the applicable Third Party Claim with diligence and good faith, (iii) the
Third Party Claim seeks an injunction or other equitable relief or is a criminal proceeding, (iv)
settlement of, or an adverse judgment with respect to, the Third Party Claim is, in the good faith
judgment of the Indemnitee, likely to establish a precedential custom or practice adverse to the
continuing business interests or the reputation of the Indemnitee, or (v) the named parties to any
such Third Party Claim (including any impleaded parties) include such Indemnitee and any
Indemnitor, and such Indemnitee shall have been advised by its counsel that there is a conflict of

48

 

interest between the Indemnitor and such Indemnitee with respect to such Third Party Claim or with
respect to any legal defense which may be available; provided, however, that the
Indemnitor shall not in such event be responsible hereunder for the fees and expenses of more than
one firm of separate counsel (in addition to local counsel) in connection with any claim or
proceeding.

          (c) In the event the Indemnitor exercises its right to undertake the defense of any Third
Party Claim, the Indemnitee shall cooperate with the Indemnitor in such defense and make available
to the Indemnitor witnesses, pertinent records, materials and information in its possession or
under its control relating thereto as are reasonably requested by the Indemnitor. Similarly, in
the event the Indemnitee is, directly or indirectly, conducting the defense against any Third Party
Claim, the Indemnitor shall cooperate with the Indemnitee in such defense and make available to the
Indemnitee witnesses, pertinent records, materials and information in its possession or under its
control relating thereto as are reasonably requested by the Indemnitee. No Third Party Claim may
be settled by the Indemnitor without the written consent of the Indemnitee, which consent shall not
be unreasonably withheld or delayed. No Third Party Claim which is being defended in good faith by
the Indemnitee alone, or jointly with the Indemnitor, shall be settled by the Indemnitee without
the written consent of the Indemnitor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

          SECTION 8.06 Tax Treatment of Indemnification. 

      Purchaser, Seller and Seller
Owners agree to treat for tax purposes any indemnity payment made
pursuant to this Article VIII as an adjustment to the Purchase Price.

Article IX

FINDER’S FEES

          SECTION 9.01 Finder’s Fees.

      Seller, Seller Owners and the Company Parties
represent and warrant to Purchaser that, except as set forth in Section 9.01 of the Disclosure
Schedule, and Purchaser represents and warrants to Seller and Seller Owners that, except as set
forth in Section 9.01 of the Purchaser Disclosure Schedule, that neither they nor their respective
affiliates respectively have had any dealings with any finder, broker, financial advisor or
investment banker in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Seller and
each Seller Owner will jointly and severally indemnify and hold Purchaser harmless from and against
any and all liabilities (including but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees) to which it may
be subjected by reason of any finder’s, broker’s, financial advisor’s, investment banker’s or
similar fee or commission with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to the
extent such fee is attributable to any action undertaken by Seller, any Seller Owner or any Company
Party (on behalf of Seller or any Seller Owner) or their respective affiliates. Purchaser will
indemnify and hold Seller and Seller Owners harmless from and against any and all liabilities
(including but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees) to which it may be subjected by reason of
any finder’s, broker’s, financial advisor’s, investment banker’s or similar fee or commission with
respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to the extent such fee is attributable
to any action undertaken by Purchaser or its Subsidiaries (including the Company Parties after the
Closing).

failure on the part of any party hereto, to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power
or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of

Securities registered thereunder can be sold without restriction to the public pursuant to Rule 144
(the period ending on such time or date in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of this Section 3.1(c) (such
period, the “Effectiveness Period”).

          3.2. Limitation. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 3, the Company shall
not be obligated to include any Registrable Securities that a Holder desires to include in a
Registration Statement pursuant to Section 3 or maintain the effectiveness of any Registration
Statement with respect to a Holder pursuant to this Section 3, if all of the Registrable Securities
that such Holder desires to include or all of the Registrable Securities held by such Holder then
registered under such Registration Statement, as applicable, may, in the written opinion of the
Company’s counsel, be sold without registration under the Securities Act pursuant to Rule 144(e),
to the extent such Holder is an “affiliate” as defined in Rule 144(a)(1).

     4. REGISTRATION PROCEDURES

          4.1. Registration Statement. Whenever registration of the Registrable Securities is
required pursuant to this Agreement, the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to effect the
registration of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method of distribution
thereof, as promptly as practicable, and in connection with any such request, the Company shall:

     (a) Participation in Preparation. Permit the Shareholder Representatives and the Holders’
Special Counsel to review and comment on each Registration Statement, prospectus, amendment or
supplement, as the case may be, a reasonable period of time prior to the filing of same with the
SEC.

5

 

     (b) Effectiveness; Blackout Periods. Keep the Registration Statements effective pursuant to
Rule 415 for the respective Effectiveness Periods set forth in Section 3.1(c); provided,
however, if at any time after the effective date of a Registration Statement, the Company,
based upon the advice of its counsel, determines in good faith that maintaining the effectiveness
of a Registration Statement would require disclosure of non-public material information that is not
in the best interests of the Company to disclose, then the Company may require the Participating
Holders not to make any sale or sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to the respective
Registration Statement until the Company gives the Participating Holders notice that they can
re-commence sales of the Registrable Securities (the period commencing on the date specified in the
blackout notice and ending on the date specified in the re-commencement notice, the “Blackout
Period”); provided, that in no event shall any single Blackout Period exceed sixty (60)
days; and provided, further, that the Company shall not invoke a Blackout Period
more than three (3) times or for more than one hundred twenty
(120) days in the aggregate
in any three hundred sixty (360) day period.

     (c) Amendments. Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including post-effective
amendments) and supplements to each Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection
with the Registration Statement as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement
continuously effective and cause the related prospectus to be supplemented by any required
prospectus supplement, and as so supplemented to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 (or any similar
provisions then in force) promulgated under the Securities Act at all times during the respective
Effectiveness Period, and, during such period, comply with the provisions of the Securities Act and
the Exchange Act applicable to the Company in order to permit the disposition by the Participating
Holders of the Registrable Securities subject to the respective Registration Statement.

     (d) Copies. Promptly furnish to each Participating Holder and the Holders’ Special Counsel
one copy of the Registration Statement registering its Registrable Securities and any amendment
thereto, each prospectus and each amendment or supplement relating thereto, including all financial
statements and schedules, and, to the extent so requested, all documents incorporated by reference
in such Registration Statement, and all exhibits thereto, and such number of copies of a prospectus
and all amendments and supplements thereto and such other documents as each Participating Holder
may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned
by such Participating Holder.

     (e) Blue Sky. Prior to any public offering of Registrable Securities, the Company shall use
its best efforts to register and qualify (or seek an exception from registration or qualification)
such Registrable Securities under the securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions that each
Participating Holder may reasonably request in writing, prepare and file in those jurisdictions
such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to such registrations and
qualifications as may be necessary to maintain the effectiveness thereof at all times during the
respective Effectiveness Period, take such other actions as may be reasonably necessary to maintain
such registrations and qualifications and the effectiveness thereof at all times during the
respective Effectiveness Period, and take all other actions reasonably necessary or advisable to
qualify the Registrable Securities for sale by the Participating Holders in such jurisdictions;
provided, however, the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as
a condition thereto (x) to qualify generally to do business

6

 

or file a general consent to service of process, or (y) subject itself to material taxation in
any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify or to consent to service of
process or to become subject to taxation but for the provisions set for in this Section 4.1(e).

     (f) 10b-5 Notification. Promptly notify each Participating Holder of the occurrence of any
event as a result of which the prospectus included in a Registration Statement, as then in effect,
includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the
circumstances then existing or which requires the Company to amend or supplement such Registration
Statement due to the receipt by the Company of new or additional information about a Participating
Holder or such Participating Holder’s intended plan of distribution of his, her or its Registrable
Securities; and, in such event, the Company, subject to Section 4.1(b), (x) shall promptly
supplement or amend such Registration Statement to correct such untrue statement or omission or to
reflect such new or additional information, so that, as thereafter delivered by any Participating
Holder to any purchaser of such securities, such prospectus, as supplemented or amended, shall not
include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made, and (y) shall promptly furnish to each Participating
Holder that number of copies of such supplement to or amendment of such prospectus as any
Participating Holder may reasonably request.

     (g) Notification of Stop-Orders; Suspensions of Qualification and Exemptions. Promptly notify
each Participating Holder of the issuance by the SEC of any stop-order or any notification with
respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the
Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any
proceeding for such purpose and the Company agrees to use reasonable best efforts to (x) prevent
the issuance of any such stop-order, and in the event of such issuance, to obtain the withdrawal of
any such stop order and (y) obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending or preventing the use of
any related prospectus or suspending the qualification of any Registrable Securities included in
such Registration Statement for sale in any jurisdiction at the earliest practicable date.

     (h) Earnings Statements. Make generally available to its security holders as soon as
practicable, but not later than ninety (90) days after the close of the period covered thereby, an
earnings statement (in form complying with the provisions of Rule 158 under the Securities Act)
covering a twelve (12) month period beginning not later than the first (1st) day of the
Company’s fiscal quarter next following the effective date of the respective Registration
Statement.

     (i) Due Diligence. Make available, at reasonable times and places, for inspection by a
Participating Holder and the Holders’ Special Counsel for a reasonable period prior to the filing
of a Registration Statement, all documents incorporated by reference in such Registration
Statement, each prospectus included therein, and each amendment thereof or supplement thereto, all
pertinent financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company,
as shall be reasonably necessary to enable each Participating Holder to conduct a reasonable
investigation within the meaning of the Securities Act; provided that any records,
information or documents that are designated by the Company in writing as confidential shall be
kept confidential by such person unless disclosure of such records, information or documents is

7

 

required by law or court or administrative order or any governmental authority having
jurisdiction.

     (j) Listing Requirements. Use its reasonable best efforts to secure and maintain the listing
of the Registrable Securities on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) or on any other
securities exchange on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed.

     (k) Stock Certificates. Cooperate with each Participating Holder to facilitate the timely
preparation and delivery of certificates (not bearing any restrictive legends) representing
Registrable Securities and enable such certificates to be in such denominations or amounts as any
Participating Holder may reasonably request and be registered in such names as such Participating
Holder may reasonably request. The Company shall give appropriate instructions to the Company’s
transfer agent to cause the transfer agent to deliver certificates representing the Registrable
Securities without any restrictive legends upon receipt of the Participating Holder’s certification
that such Registrable Securities have been sold pursuant to a Registration Statement contemplated
hereby.

     (l) Agreements. Take all other reasonable actions (including entering into customary
agreements) necessary to expedite and facilitate the disposition by the Participating Holders of
Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement.

          4.2. Rule 144 Reporting; Removal of Legends.

     (a) With a view to making available the benefits of Rule 144 and certain other rules and
regulations of the SEC that may permit the sale of the Registrable Securities to the public without
registration, the Company covenants that it shall:

	 	(i)	 	make and keep public information regarding the Company
available as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144;
	 
	 	(ii)	 	file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other
documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange
Act; and
	 
	 	(iii)	 	furnish to any Holder forthwith, upon written request, a
written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting
provisions contained in Rule 144(c) under the Securities Act, a copy of the
most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and such other reports
and documents so filed as any Holder may reasonably request in availing itself
of any rule or regulation of the SEC allowing a Holder to sell any of the
Registrable Securities without registration.

     (b) The Company shall give appropriate instructions to the Company’s transfer agent to cause
the transfer agent to deliver certificates representing the Registrable Securities without any
restrictive legends upon receipt of the Holder’s certification that such Registrable Securities
have been sold pursuant to Rule 144. Each Holder shall, to the extent requested by the Company’s
transfer agent, cause its legal counsel to deliver to the Company’s transfer agent an

8

 

opinion in customary form as may be required to remove such restrictive legends following a
sale pursuant to Rule 144.

     5. OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTICIPATING HOLDERS AND HOLDERS

          5.1. Each Participating Holder and Holder, as the case may be, shall:

     (a) furnish to the Company such information regarding the intended plan of distribution of its
Registrable Securities that pursuant to applicable law is required to be included in a Registration
Statement or any amendment thereto;

     (b) upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind
described in Section 4.1(b) or 4.1(f), forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities
pursuant to the respective Registration Statement until such Participating Holder’s receipt of the
re-commencement notice contemplated by Section 4.1(b) or copies of the supplemented or amended
prospectus contemplated by Section 4.1(f), and, if so directed by the Company, such Participating
Holder will deliver to the Company (at the Company’s expense) all copies, other than permanent file
copies then in such Participating Holder’s possession, of the prospectus covering such Registrable
Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice. In the event the Company shall give any
such notice under Sections 4.1(b) or 4.1(f) (other than as a result of the receipt by the Company
of new or additional information about a Participating Holder or such Participating Holder’s
intended plan of distribution), the Company shall extend the Effectiveness Period by the number of
days during the period from and including the date of the giving of such notice pursuant to
Sections 4.1(b) or 4.1(f) to and including the date when each Participating Holder shall have
received the re-commencement notice contemplated by Section 4.1(b) or copies of the supplemented or
amended prospectus contemplated by Section 4.1(f); and

     (c) promptly notify the Company after effecting the sale of any Registrable Securities
pursuant to a Registration Statement or otherwise.

          5.2. Each Holder shall comply at all times with the Company’s trading policy for affiliates,
as such policy may be amended and in effect from time to time, if, in the opinion of the Company’s
counsel, such Holder is deemed to be an affiliate of the Company as such term is defined in Rule
12b-2 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

     6. EXPENSES

     All expenses incident to the Company’s performance of or compliance with the registration
obligations set forth in Sections 3 and 4 of this Agreement, including, without limitation, all
registration, qualification and filing fees, fees and expenses of compliance with securities or
“blue sky” laws (including fees and disbursements of counsel in connection with “blue sky”
qualifications of the Registrable Securities), printing expenses, messenger and delivery expenses,
expenses incurred in connection with securing and maintaining the listing of the Registrable
Securities on the NYSE or any other securities exchange on which similar securities issued by the
Company are then listed, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company and its independent
certified public accountants (including the expenses of any special audit or “comfort” letters
required by or incident to such performance) will be borne by the

9

 

Company; provided, however, the Company shall not have any obligation to pay
the fees and disbursements of the Holders’ Special Counsel.

     7. INDEMNIFICATION

          7.1. Indemnification by the Company. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold
harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by law, each Participating Holder , and its directors,
officers, partners, employees, advisors and agents, their respective Affiliates and each Person who
controls (within the meaning of the Securities Act) any of such Persons (collectively, “Holder
Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, expenses
(including, without limitation, reasonable fees of counsel) or other liabilities (collectively,
“Losses”) to which any such Holder Indemnified Party may become subject under the
Securities Act, Exchange Act, any other federal law, any state or common law or any rule or
regulation promulgated thereunder or otherwise, insofar as such Losses are resulting from or
arising out of or based upon any untrue, or alleged untrue, statement of a material fact contained
in any Registration Statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus (as amended or supplemented) or
any document incorporated by reference in any of the foregoing or resulting from or arising out of
or based upon any omission, or alleged omission, to state therein a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus, in light
of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Company shall not be liable to any Holder Indemnified Party for any Losses that arise out of or
are based upon (x) written information provided by such Holder Indemnified Party expressly for use
in the Registration Statement, (y) sales of Registrable Securities by a Holder Indemnified Party to
a person to whom there was not sent or given, at or before the written confirmation of such sale, a
copy of the prospectus (excluding documents incorporated by reference) or the prospectus as then
amended or supplemented (excluding documents incorporated by reference) and the Losses of such
Holder Indemnified Party resulting from an untrue statement or omission of a material fact
contained in such preliminary prospectus which was corrected in the prospectus (or the prospectus
as then amended or supplemented), or (z) any offer or sale of Registrable Securities during a
Blackout Period or during the period that sales of the Registrable Securities are required to be
discontinued pursuant to Section 5.1(b). Notwithstanding the foregoing, such indemnity obligation
shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the
Holder Indemnified Parties and shall survive the transfer of Registrable Securities by such Holder
Indemnified Parties.

          7.2. Indemnification by the Participating Holders. Each Participating Holder agrees,
severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, and its directors, officers,
partners, employees, advisors and agents, their respective Affiliates and each Person who controls
(within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) any of such Persons (collectively,
the “Company Indemnified Parties”) from any Losses to which such Company Indemnified Party
may become subject under the Securities Act, Exchange Act, any other federal law, any state or
common law or any rule or regulation promulgated thereunder or otherwise, insofar as such Losses
are resulting from or arising out of or based upon any untrue, or alleged untrue, statement of a
material fact contained in any Registration Statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus (as
amended or supplemented) or any document incorporated by reference in any of the foregoing or
resulting from or arising out of or based upon any omission, or alleged omission, to state therein
a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to

10

 

make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus, in light of the circumstances under
which they were made), not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement, omission or alleged omission is made in such Registration Statement, prospectus
or preliminary prospectus in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to
the Company by or on behalf of such Participating Holder and expressly intended for use in such
Registration Statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
liability of any Participating Holder under this Section 7.2 shall be limited to the amount of the
net proceeds received by such Participating Holder in the sale giving rise to such liability. The
foregoing indemnity obligation shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any
investigation made by or on behalf of the Company Indemnified Parties and shall survive the
transfer of Registrable Securities by such Participating Holder.

          7.3. Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Any person entitled to indemnification
hereunder (each, an “Indemnified Party”) agrees to give prompt written notice to the
indemnifying party (each, an “Indemnifying Party”) after the receipt by such person of any
written notice of the commencement of any action, suit, proceeding or investigation or threat
thereof for which such person will claim indemnification or contribution pursuant to this Agreement
(but the failure to give such notice will not affect the right to indemnification or contribution
hereunder unless and to the extent the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure)
and the Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel
reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party and payment of all reasonable fees and expenses
(regardless of whether it is ultimately determined that an Indemnified Party is entitled to
indemnification hereunder). Such Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel
in any such action and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such
counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party, unless the employment of such counsel
shall have been specifically authorized in writing by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying
Party shall have failed to assume the defense and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to the
Indemnified Party or the named parties to any such action (including any impleaded parties) include
both such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party and such Indemnified Party shall have been
advised by such counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to it which are
different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party (in which case, the
Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such action on behalf of such
Indemnified Party, it being understood, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not, in
connection with any one such action, or separate but substantially similar or related actions in
the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for
the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to any local
counsel) for all such Indemnified Parties, which firm (and local counsel) shall be designated in
writing by the Indemnified Parties and that all such reasonable fees and expenses shall be
reimbursed as they are incurred). An Indemnifying Party shall not settle, compromise or consent to
the entry of any judgment in any proceeding without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent,
unless the terms of such settlement, compromise or consent include an unconditional release of each
Indemnified Party from all liability or loss arising out of such proceeding or unless the
Indemnifying Party shall not have timely, and in any event within sixty (60) days, responded to a
request for such consent. The rights afforded to any Indemnified Party hereunder shall be in
addition to any rights that such Indemnified Party may have at common law, by separate agreement or
otherwise.

11

 

          7.4. Contribution.

     (a) If for any reason the indemnification provided for in this Section 7 is unavailable, or is
insufficient, to hold harmless an Indemnified Party in respect of any Losses, then the Indemnifying
Party, in lieu of indemnifying the Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or
payable by the Indemnified Party as a result of such Losses in such proportion as is appropriate to
reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party on the one hand and the Indemnified Party on
the other. The relative fault of such Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party shall be determined
by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or
alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material
fact, was made by, or relates to information supplied by, such Indemnifying Party or Indemnified
Party, and the Indemnifying Party’s and Indemnified Party’s relative intent, knowledge, access to
information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action. The amount paid or payable by a
Party as a result of the Losses or other liabilities referred to above shall be deemed to include,
subject to the limitations set forth in Sections 7.1 and 7.2, any legal or other fees or expenses
reasonably incurred by such Party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. The
liability of any Holder Indemnified Party under this Section 7.4 shall be limited to the amount of
the net proceeds received by such Holder Indemnified Party.

     (b) The Parties agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this
Section 7.4 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does
not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding
paragraph. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of 11(f) of the
Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such
fraudulent misrepresentation.

     (c) If indemnification is available under this Section 7, each Indemnifying Party shall
indemnify each Indemnified Party to the full extent provided in Sections 7.1 and 7.2, as the case
may be, without regard to the relative fault of said Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party or any
other equitable consideration provided for in this Section 7.4.

     8. REMEDIES

     In case any one or more of the covenants and/or agreements set forth in this Agreement shall
have been breached by any Party hereto, the Party or Parties entitled to the benefit of such
covenants or agreements may, except as may otherwise be expressly provided in this Agreement,
proceed to protect and enforce their rights either by suit in equity and/or by action at law,
including, but not limited to, an action for damages as a result of any such breach and/or an
action for specific performance of any such covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement. The
rights, powers and remedies of the Parties under this Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive of
any other right, power or remedy which such Parties may have under any other agreement or law. No
single or partial assertion or exercise of any right, power or remedy of a Party shall preclude any
other or further assertion or exercise thereof.

12

 

      9. NOTICES

      Any notice required or permitted under this Agreement shall be given in writing and shall be
deemed effectively given upon personal delivery to the Party to be notified, on the next Business
Day after delivery to a nationally recognized overnight courier service, when sent by confirmed
facsimile if sent during normal business hours of the recipient, or if not, then on the
next Business Day, or five (5) days after deposit with the United States Post Office, by
registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, and addressed to the Party to be notified at the

may designate upon written notice to the other Parties (except that notice of change of address

      10. MISCELLANEOUS

          10.1. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Stock Restriction Agreement
(where applicable) and the Purchase Agreement, constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties
with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings,
written or oral, between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.

          10.2. Amendments and Waivers. Any term of this Agreement may be amended and the
observance of any term of this Agreement may be waived (either generally or

13

 

in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), only by an instrument in
writing and signed by the Company and the holders of a majority of the Restricted Shares and
Unrestricted Shares (voting together as a single class); provided that no amendment that is
materially adverse to a Holder shall be effective against such Holder without such Holder’s written
consent. The waiver by any Party of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate
or be construed as a further or continuing waiver of such breach or as a waiver of any other or
subsequent breach. No failure on the part of any Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising,
any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or
partial exercise of such right, power or remedy by any Party preclude any other or further exercise
thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy.

          10.3. Successors and Assigns. Subject to the transfer restrictions set forth herein,
the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the
respective successors and assigns of the Parties; provided, however, the Holders

Securities, except (a) in connection with the transfer of such Registrable Securities (and if
applicable, in accordance with the Stock Restriction Agreement) and (b) in compliance with the
following conditions: (i) the transferee shall agree in writing that it is bound by the terms of
this Agreement and, if applicable, the Stock Restriction Agreement and (ii) the Company is given
prompt written notice by such Holder of such transfer, stating the name and address of the
transferee and identifying the number of Registrable Securities that are the subject of the
transfer.

          10.4. Governing Law. This Agreement, including the validity hereof and the rights and
obligations of the Parties hereunder, the performance of the transactions and obligations of the
Parties hereunder, and all amendments and supplements hereof and all waivers and consents
hereunder, shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the domestic substantive laws of
the State of New York without giving effect to any choice of law or conflicts of law provision or
rule that would cause the application of the domestic substantive laws of any other jurisdiction.

          10.5. Severability. If any provisions of this Agreement as applied to any Party or to
any circumstance shall be adjudged by a court to be invalid or unenforceable, the same shall in no
way affect any other provision of this Agreement, the application of such provision in any other
circumstances or the validity or enforceability of this Agreement.

          10.6. Captions. The headings and captions used in this Agreement are used for
convenience only and are not to be considered in construing or interpreting this Agreement.

          10.7. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which
shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same
instrument.

          10.8. Several Obligations. The obligations of the Holders herein are several and not
joint. No Holder shall be responsible for the performance or failure on the part of any other
Holder to perform his, her or its obligations hereunder.

14

 

          10.9. Interpretation. This Agreement shall be construed reasonably to carry out its
intent without presumption against or in favor of any Party.

          10.10. Consent to Jurisdiction and Service of Process. Each Holder, for itself, its
personal representatives, legatees, heirs and assigns, hereby consents to the personal jurisdiction
of the courts of the County and State of New York located in New York, New York and of the United
States District Court for the Southern District of New York, each as may have competent
jurisdiction, with respect to any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with this
Agreement and agrees that process issued out of any such court or in accordance with the rules of
practice of such court may be served by mail or other form of substituted service to such Holder at
the address provided herein, and that any actions therein may be consolidated in a single action.
Each Holder also agrees not to bring any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with
this Agreement in any other court. Each Holder waives any defense of inconvenient forum to the
maintenance of any dispute or controversy so brought and waives any bond, surety, or other security
that may be required of any other party hereto with respect such dispute or controversy. Nothing
contained herein shall be deemed to prevent the Company from effecting service of process upon any
Holder in any other manner permitted by law or from commencing any action in any other court having
competent jurisdiction.
