Grant Date: January 15, 2010

Grant: A Conditional Grant related to                      Restricted Stock Units

WHEREAS, Apache Corporation has granted you a Conditional Grant of Restricted Stock Units under the
2010 Performance Program and the Apache Corporation 2007 Omnibus Equity Compensation Plan pursuant
to your 2010 Performance Program Award Notice and Agreement (the “Grant Agreement”); and

WHEREAS, Apache and you desire to amend the Grant Agreement as provided herein;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises set forth above and other good and valuable
consideration, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the Recipient and Apache hereby consent and
agree as follows:

	 	1.	 	Defined Terms: All capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein
shall have the meanings given to them in the Grant Agreement, as amended by this First
Amendment.
	 
	 	2.	 	The definition of Performance Measure in the Award Notice is hereby amended by
adding the following at the end thereof:
	 
	 	 	 	“Notwithstanding the above, in the event that Apache Corporation’s TSR is negative for the
Performance Period and the Company’s TSR rank amongst the Peer Group companies for the
Performance Period is from one (1) to seven (7), the Multiple of Target Amount shall be
limited to 1.00.”
	 
	 	3.	 	Section 1 of the 2010 Performance Program Agreement is hereby deleted in its
entirety and substituted therefor with the following:
	 
	 	 	 	“1. Conditional Grant of RSUs. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement
and the provisions of the Plan and Award Notice, the Company shall conditionally
grant to the Recipient, pursuant to the Plan, a right to receive the Target Amount
of RSUs set forth in the Recipient’s Award Notice. Such Target Amount shall be
adjusted to a Final Amount at the end of the Performance Period based upon the
results of the Performance Measure, as determined by the Committee, provided,
however, in the event that the Company’s TSR for the Performance Period is negative
and Company’s Performance Measure ranking is from one (1) to seven (7), Grantee

the Target Amount of RSUs multiplied by 1.00. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Target Amount shall be adjusted to a Final Amount of RSUs at the conclusion of the
Performance Period solely for each Recipient who remains employed as of the last day
of the Performance Period. The award of the Final Amount shall give the Recipient
the right, upon vesting, to an equal number of shares of $0.625 par value common
stock of the Company (“Stock”).”

times to their financial records (as they relate to the Acquired Business), and the
personnel of, and work papers prepared by or for, Seller’s accountants, and all information
necessary to prepare the NWC

16

 

Statement, including such historical financial information
relating to the Seller as the Purchaser shall reasonably request in order to permit the
timely review of the NWC Statement (and related computation of Net Working Capital), and to
prepare any Statement of Objections.

     (d) On or prior to the last day of the Review Period, the Purchaser may object to the
NWC Statement and the computation of Net Working Capital, by delivering to the Seller a

Period, (i) the NWC Statement (and related computation of Net Working Capital) shall be
deemed to have been accepted by the Purchaser and shall be final and binding on the
Parties, and (ii) such computations of Net Working Capital shall be used in computing the
Adjustment Amount. If the Purchaser delivers the Statement of Objections to the Seller
within the Review Period, the Purchaser and the Seller shall negotiate in good faith to
resolve such objections, and any objections that are resolved by a written agreement
between the Purchaser and the Seller shall be final and binding on the Parties.

     (e) If the Seller and the Purchaser fail to reach an agreement with respect to all of
the matters set forth in the Statement of Objections, then the matters still in dispute
shall, not later than ten Business Days after the delivery of the Statement of Objections
(or, if earlier, the date on which either the Seller or the Purchaser affirmatively
terminate discussions in writing with respect to the Statement of Objections) be submitted
for resolution to the Independent Accountant who, acting as an arbitrator as described in
Section 2.7(f) hereof, shall resolve the matters still in dispute and adjust the
NWC Statement and Net Working Capital to reflect such resolution. The Independent
Accountant shall make a determination in writing as soon as practicable and in any event
within 30 days (or such other time as the Purchaser and the Seller shall agree in writing)
after its engagement.

     (f) In resolving a disputed item, the Independent Accountant may not assign a value to
any particular item greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by either Party
or less than the smallest value for such item claimed by either Party, in each case as
presented to the Independent Accountant. Within 15 days after the engagement of the
Independent Accountant, the Purchaser and the Seller shall present their respective
positions with respect to the items set forth in the Statement of Objections in the form of
a written binder of supporting materials (the “Supporting Binder”) and no ex parte
conferences, oral examinations, testimony, depositions, discovery or other form of evidence
gathering or hearings shall be conducted or allowed; provided, that, at the Independent
Accountant’s request, or as mutually agreed by the Purchaser and the Seller, the Purchaser
and the Seller may meet with the Independent Accountant so long as representatives of both
the Purchaser and the Seller are present. The Supporting Binder shall set forth the
arguments supporting a Party’s position,

17

 

along with such supporting materials and other
information (including facts and figures) as such Party shall desire. The Independent
Accountant’s decision with respect to the matters in dispute shall be final and binding on
the Parties and either Party may seek to enforce such decision in a court of competent
jurisdiction.

     (g) The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant shall be borne equally by the
Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Seller, on the other hand.

     (h) The Purchaser and the Seller shall each make readily available to the Independent
Accountant all relevant work papers and books and records relating to the Acquired
Business, the NWC Statement and the computation of Net Working Capital as are requested by
the Independent Accountant and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with
the Independent Accountant in resolving any disputed matters.

     (i) Notwithstanding any provision in this Section 2.7 to the contrary, the
following principles shall be applied when determining Net Working Capital and in
preparation of both the Estimated NWC Statement and the NWC Statement:

     (i) all outstanding, uncollectible or uncollected checks as of 12:00 a.m.
Pacific Time on the Closing Date shall not be included as accounts payable or
included in Assumed Liabilities;

     (ii) checks that are received by Seller up to 12:00 a.m. Pacific Time on the
Closing Date, shall belong to Seller and shall not be included as an Acquired Asset
or be part of Working Capital;

     (iii) checks for accounts receivable that are received by Seller or Purchaser
at 12:01 a.m. or later on the date of Closing (other than
checks to be applied to Non-Current Receivables) shall belong to Purchaser and
shall be included as an Acquired Asset and be part of Working Capital; and

     (iv) any cash or cash equivalent that is distributed by Seller to its
shareholders or other parties shall not be part of Working Capital.

          Section 2.8 Purchase Price Adjustment.

     (a) The “Adjustment Amount” shall be the positive or negative amount equal to the
difference between (i) Net Working Capital as finally determined in accordance with
Section 2.7 hereof minus (ii) the Estimated Net Working Capital.

     (b) Within five Business Days after the NWC Statement (and the computation of Net
Working Capital) becomes final and binding, the Purchaser shall pay to the Seller (if the
Adjustment Amount is positive) or the Seller shall

18

 

pay to the Purchaser (if the Adjustment
Amount is negative), as the case may be, the Adjustment Amount, together with an amount
equal to the equivalent of interest thereon at the Applicable Federal Rate published by the
U.S. Treasury for short-term obligations in effect during the period from the Closing Date
to the date of the payment required by this Section 2.8 calculated on the basis of
a 365-day year and the actual number of days elapsed. Any such payment shall be made by
wire transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account or accounts as shall be
designated in writing by the Seller or the Purchaser, as the case may be, no later than two
Business Days prior to the payment date. If the Seller does not pay the Purchaser within
the time provided in this Section, the Purchaser shall be entitled, at its sole option, to
recover the amount due hereunder from the Escrow Amount (it being understood that any such
payment from the Escrow Amount shall not reduce the Cap Amount for purposes of Section
8.4(b)).

          Section 2.9 Earn Out Payment.

For purposes hereof, “Total Net Sales” shall mean (i) all bona fide sales of all products

produce products to any customer of the Business or the Acquired Business (other than any
customer of Purchaser identified on Schedule 2.9(a)(i) except sales in excess of
the amounts listed thereon, it being the Parties’ intention that sales in excess of such
listed amounts to such Purchaser customers be included as part of Total Net Sales), in each
case calculated in accordance with GAAP in the same manner and on a consistent basis with
Seller’s net sales statement as shown in Schedule 2.9(a)(ii), less
discounts, returns, shortages,

19

 

recalls of products packed prior to the Closing Date, and marketing expenses related

event later than 15 days following the conclusion of the applicable fiscal year, the
Purchaser shall deliver a statement in the form of Exhibit C showing the
Purchaser’s calculation of Total Net Sales and Total Retail Sales for the Acquired Business
for the applicable fiscal year (each such calculation, the “Yearly Sales Statement”),
accompanied by reasonably detailed supporting documentation. In addition, within 10
Business Days after the conclusion of each calendar month during Fiscal 2010 and Fiscal
2011, the Purchaser shall provide the Seller with a good faith estimate of such amounts for
the Acquired Business for the immediately preceding quarter and for the year-to-date.

     (c) The Seller shall have reasonable access during normal business hours to all of the
books and records and accounting work papers of the Purchaser and its subsidiaries in order
to verify the accuracy of the Yearly Sales Statement. The calculation of Total Net Sales
and Total Retail Sales shall be determined based on the applicable Audit. Purchaser shall
complete each Audit within 10 days following Fiscal 2010 or Fiscal 2011, as applicable.

     (d) Dispute Resolution. This Section 2.9(d) sets forth the exclusive
procedures for resolving disputes among the Parties with respect to the determination of
the earn out payments under Section 2.9 (the “Earn Out Payments”):

     (i) Notice of Disagreement. Within 30 days following receipt by

reflected therein. The Notice of Disagreement shall describe in reasonable detail
the items contained in the Yearly Sales Statement that Seller disputes and the
basis for any such disputes. If Seller does not notify Purchaser of a dispute with
respect to the Yearly Sales Statement within such 30 day period, such Yearly Sales

Statement and the Total Net Sales and Net Retail Sales reflected therein shall
be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties.

     (ii) Dispute Resolution. In the event a Notice of Disagreement is
delivered to Purchaser, Purchaser and Seller shall negotiate in good faith to
resolve such dispute. If Purchaser and Seller, notwithstanding such good faith
effort, fail to resolve such dispute within 14 days after Seller delivers the
Notice of Disagreement, or such other period of time as Purchaser and Seller may
agree in writing, then such dispute shall be referred to the Independent
Accountant, and the determination of the Independent Accountant shall be final and
shall not be subject to further review, challenge, or adjustment. The Independent
Accountant shall use its best efforts to reach a determination within not more than
30 days after such referral. The costs and expenses of the services of the
Independent Accountant rendered pursuant to this Section 2.9(d) shall be
paid 50% by Seller and 50% by Purchaser.

     (e) Earn Out Payments. Each Earn Out Payment shall be paid by Purchaser to
Seller no later than seven Business Days after the final determination (after resolution of
any dispute) of the applicable Yearly Sales Statement by wire transfer of immediately
available funds; provided, however, that Purchaser shall withhold 18.6% of the Earn Out
Payments payable under Section 2.9(a)(i) and (ii) (the “Holdback”) to
secure any indemnity obligation of Seller under Section 8.1(a). Purchaser shall release
the Holdback to the Seller on the 18-month anniversary of the Closing Date, less the amount
of any claims for indemnification under Section 8.1(a) against the Holdback agreed to by
the Seller and less the amount required to satisfy any good-faith claims for
indemnification under Section 8.1(a) against the Holdback pending on the 18-month
anniversary of the Closing Date. Upon the resolution of any claims pending on the 18-month
anniversary of the Closing Date, any amounts then remaining shall be released to the
Seller. The release of any portion of the Holdback Amount shall be promptly made by wire
transfer of immediately available funds.

     (f) Notwithstanding any provision in this Section 2.9 to the contrary, in the
event of the occurrence of any Acceleration Event (as defined below), Purchaser shall
promptly pay by wire transfer of immediately available funds the Acceleration Payment (as
defined below) to the Seller.

     (i) “Acceleration Payment” shall mean (1) $10,500,000 (less any adjustment
provided for in Section 2.9(g)) if an Acceleration Event shall occur at any time
during Fiscal 2010 and (2) $5,000,000 if an Acceleration Event shall occur at any
time during Fiscal 2011; provided, however, that if an Acceleration Payment is made
pursuant to clause 2.9(f)(i)(1), no other Acceleration Payment shall become due
under this Agreement.

21

 

     (ii) An “Acceleration Event” shall mean the consummation, at any time during
Fiscal 2010 or Fiscal 2011, of any transaction or series of related transactions
resulting in the sale by Purchaser, directly or indirectly, of all or substantially
all of the Acquired Business.

     (g) Notwithstanding any provision in Article II to the contrary, in the event that
Closing shall occur on May 1, 2010 or thereafter, the Earn-Out Payment for Fiscal 2010
payable to Seller shall be reduced by the amount specified on Schedule 2.9(g) under
the column headed “Cumulative” for the date that corresponds to the Closing Date.

     Section 2.10 Tax Allocation of Purchase Price.

     (a) The Purchaser shall prepare an initial draft of an agreement (the “Allocation
Agreement”) allocating the Purchase Price (plus Assumed Liabilities to the extent properly
taken into account under the Code) among the Acquired Assets in accordance with Section
1060 of the Code, the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder and Revenue Procedure
2003-51 and other appropriate authorities. In preparing such draft Allocation Agreement,
Purchaser shall use the fair market value of Seller’s uncommitted raw materials, committed
raw materials and retail packaged inventory (collectively, the “FMV Inventory”). A copy of
such draft Allocation Agreement shall be delivered to the Seller within 30 days after the
Closing Date, and the Seller and the Purchaser shall consult in good faith with respect to
the terms of the Allocation Agreement. To the extent disputed items remain after a 15-day
period of consultation, any disputed items shall be referred to the Independent Accountant
or a firm mutually agreed upon by the Purchaser and the Seller for final determination, and
the fees of such accounting firm shall be borne 50% by Purchaser and 50% by the Seller.
The Seller and the Purchaser agree to file all Tax Returns in accordance with the
allocations contained in the Allocation Agreement as finally determined pursuant to this
Section 2.10. Any indemnification payments pursuant to Article VIII shall be treated as an
adjustment to the Purchase Price. The Seller and Purchaser further agree that none of the
Escrow Amount, the Additional Purchase Price Amount and any Earn Out Payment (if made) is
allocable to the FMV Inventory.

     (b) As an addition to the Purchase Price, if any, within two days following the final
determination of the Allocation Agreement pursuant to this Section 2.10, the Purchaser
shall pay the Seller the Additional Purchase Price Amount, if any. The “Additional
Purchase Price Amount” shall mean an amount, if any, equal to the lesser of (i) $200,000
and (ii) the product of (A) the aggregate amount allocated to the FMV Inventory pursuant to
the Allocation Agreement, minus the aggregate book value (as shown on the Seller’s
books) of the FMV Inventory, and (B) 10%.

22

 

          Section 2.11 Transfer Taxes. Sales, use, value added, transaction privilege, transfer, registration, stamp, deed and
similar fees and Taxes (“Transfer Taxes”) resulting from the consummation of the transactions
contemplated under this Agreement and payable to a government authority, shall be paid by the
Purchaser, and the Purchaser shall complete and file all returns associated therewith. Such
obligations shall survive the Closing. The Parties shall cooperate in obtaining any available
exemptions from such Transfer Taxes.

foreign organization and is in good standing under the Applicable Laws of each state or
other jurisdiction in which either the ownership or use of the properties owned or used by

or (ii) if events have occurred which have made it impossible to satisfy a condition
precedent to the Seller’s obligations to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby,
unless the Seller’s willful or knowing breach of this Agreement has caused the condition to
be incapable of being satisfied;

7.2, Section 9.1, Section 9.3, Section 10.9, Section 10.10 and
Section 10.12 shall survive; provided, however, (a) if this Agreement is terminated by the
Purchaser because of a breach of this Agreement by the Seller or because one or more of the
conditions to the Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement is not satisfied as a result of any
of the Seller’s failure to comply with their respective obligations under this Agreement, the
Purchaser’s right to pursue remedies (consistent with this Agreement) will survive such termination
unimpaired; and (b) if this Agreement is terminated by the Seller because of a breach of
this Agreement by the Purchaser or because one or more of the conditions to the Seller’s

the extent known.

     (b) Except to the extent such Third Party Claim relates to the audit and/or litigation

shall acknowledge in a writing delivered to the Indemnified Persons that the Indemnifying
Persons shall be obligated under the terms of their indemnity hereunder in connection with
such Third Party Claim (the “Acknowledgement”), then the Indemnifying Persons shall have

different from or addition to those available to Indemnifying Persons.

     (c) Except to the extent such Third Party Claim relates to the audit and/or litigation
of any Tax Return, or the determination of a Shareholder Indemnification Event, if the
Indemnifying Persons make an Acknowledgment, but decline to assume any such defense, they

defending such Third Party Claim, including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel;
provided, that the Indemnified Persons shall not consent to settle, compromise or offer to
settle or compromise any such Third Party Claim without the written prior consent of the
Purchaser, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

     (d) Except to the extent such Third Party Claim relates to the audit and/or litigation
of any Tax Returns, or the determination of a Shareholder Indemnification Event, if the
Indemnifying Persons exercise their right to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim,
they shall not make any settlement of any claims without the prior written consent of the
Purchaser, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

     (e) The Indemnifying Persons and the Indemnified Persons shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to minimize losses from Third Party Claims and shall act in good faith
in responding to, defending against, settling or otherwise dealing with such Third Party
Claims. Each Party agrees that it shall cooperate with the other Party in the defense of
any Third Party Claim and shall furnish any documents and endeavor to make available any
witnesses under its control (subject to any applicable confidentiality agreements or claims
of attorney-client privilege and with out-of-pocket expenses to be paid by the party so
requesting).

     (c) The covenants and other agreements of the parties contained in this Agreement
shall survive the Closing Date until they are otherwise terminated, whether by their terms

pursuant to such Sections exceeds an amount equal to

50

 

$200,000 (the “Basket Amount”) and
then only to the extent of the amount of Losses in excess of the Basket Amount; provided,
however, that the Basket Amount shall not apply to claims for indemnification based on (i)
breaches of the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 5.1,
5.2, 5.11 or 5.14, (ii) intentional fraud, (iii) Losses related to
Retained Liabilities; or (iv) any claim under Section 9.8.

     (b) The Parties acknowledge and agree that the maximum aggregate liability of the
Seller pursuant to Sections 8.1(a) (inclusive of the Escrow Amount) shall not

     (c) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the
Seller shall be under no liability to indemnify any Purchaser Indemnified Person under this
Article VIII and no claim under Article VIII of this Agreement shall be made to the extent,
but only to the extent, that (x) a reserve was made for the matter giving rise to the claim
in, or noted in, or taken account of in, the NWC Statement and (y) such reserve or other
amount was taken into account in determining the Net Working Capital.

respect to such specific breach shall be made without regard to any limitation or
qualification as to materiality set forth in such representation warranty, covenant or
agreement.

Agreement shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price to the extent allowable
under Applicable Law. Any indemnity payment under this Agreement shall be decreased by (i)
any Tax benefit to the Indemnified Persons resulting from the Loss giving rise to the
indemnification obligation and (ii) any amounts actually received by the Indemnified
Persons under third party insurance policies with respect to such Loss prior to the time
payment by the Indemnifying Person is due and payable under this Agreement, net of any
deductibles or co-payments paid by such Indemnified Person under the relevant insurance
policy, any “retro-premium” obligations in connection with such Loss and any costs incurred
by such Indemnified Person in procuring such payment under such policy (the “Net Insurance
Proceeds”), each Party agreeing (i) to use commercially reasonable efforts to recover all
available insurance proceeds and (ii) to the extent that any indemnity payment under this
Agreement has been paid by the Indemnifying Person to or on behalf of the Indemnified
Person prior to the receipt, directly or indirectly, by the Indemnified Person of any Net
Insurance Proceeds under third party insurance policies on account of such Loss which
duplicate, in whole or in part, the payment made by the Indemnifying Person to or

51

 

on behalf
of the Indemnified Person, the Indemnified Person shall remit to the Indemnifying Person an
amount equal to the amount of the Net Insurance Proceeds actually received by the
Indemnified Person on account of such Loss which duplicate, in whole or in part, the
payment made by the Indemnifying Person to or on behalf of the Indemnified Person.

     (f) From and after the Closing, resort to indemnification pursuant to this Article
VIII and the Escrow Agreement shall be the exclusive right and remedy of Purchaser
Indemnified Persons for any Loss arising out of or related to any breach of, or dispute or
claim relating to, this Agreement or to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or
any matter that is otherwise indemnifiable hereunder if the transactions contemplated
hereby are consummated or that constitutes a claim or cause of action against Seller.
Except for claims for equitable relief and claims with respect to intentional fraud solely
against the Person or Persons committing or alleged to have committed such intentional
fraud, recovery from the Escrow Fund and 18.6% of any Earn Out Payment that may become due
to Seller shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Purchaser Indemnified Persons for
any breach of, or dispute or claim relating to, any provision of this Agreement or any
matter that is otherwise indemnifiable hereunder if the transactions contemplated hereby
are consummated or that constitutes a claim or cause of action against Seller; it being
understood that once any Escrow Funds or Earn Out Payments are distributed to the Seller or
the Shareholders such amounts shall no longer be available to indemnify the Purchaser
Indemnified Persons.

applicable deductible, out-of-pocket or similar requirements under any such plans that may
apply after the Closing Date.

between Seller and Purchaser ratably based on the number of days in such Straddle Period prior to
and including the Closing Date and the number of days in such Straddle Period after the Closing
Date. Upon receipt of any bill for such Property Taxes, Purchaser or Seller, as applicable, shall
present a statement to the other setting forth the amount of reimbursement to which each is
entitled under this Section 3.5 together with such supporting evidence as is reasonably necessary
to calculate the proration amount. The proration amount shall be paid by the party owing it to the
other within 10 days after delivery of such statement. In the event that Purchaser or Seller makes
any payment for which it is entitled to reimbursement under this Section 9.8, the applicable party
shall make such reimbursement promptly but in no event later than 10 days after the presentation of
a statement setting forth the amount of reimbursement to which the presenting party is entitled

successors and permitted assigns; provided that neither this Agreement nor any of the rights,
interests, or obligations hereunder may be assigned by any Party without the prior written consent
of the other Parties; provided, however, that the Purchaser may assign, in whole or in part, its
rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more of its Affiliates; provided, however,
that no such assignment shall relieve Purchaser of any of its obligations under this Agreement.

          Section 10.4 Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall
be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and valid under Applicable Law, but if any
provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited by or

55

 

invalid under Applicable Law, such
provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without
invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

          Section 10.5 No Strict Construction. The language used in this Agreement shall be
deemed to be the language chosen by the Parties to express their mutual intent, and no rule of
strict construction shall be applied against any Person. The Parties hereto have participated
jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event of an ambiguity or
question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted
jointly by the Parties hereto, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or
disfavoring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement.

          Section 10.6 Captions. The captions used in this Agreement are for convenience of
reference only and do not constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit,
characterize, or in any way affect any provision of this Agreement, and all provisions of this
Agreement shall be enforced and construed as if no caption had been used in this Agreement.

          Section 10.7 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other Transaction Document and
each agreement executed contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement contain the entire
agreement between the Parties and supersede any prior understandings, agreements, or
representations by or between the Parties, written or oral, which may have related to the subject
matter hereof in any way.

          Section 10.8 Counterparts; Facsimile Transmission. This Agreement may be executed in
multiple counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but both of which taken together
shall constitute one and the same instrument. Signatures of a Party to this Agreement or other
documents executed in connection herewith which are sent to the other Parties by facsimile
transmission or by electronic mail in “portable document format” (“pdf.”) form or by any other
electronic means intended to preserve the original graphic and pictorial appearance of a document
shall be binding as evidence of acceptance of the terms hereof or thereof by such signatory Party.

          Section 10.9 Governing Law.
All questions concerning the construction, validity, and interpretation of this Agreement
shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the domestic laws of the State of Illinois,
without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision (whether of the State of
Illinois or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the Applicable Laws of any
jurisdiction other than the State of Illinois.

          Section 10.10 Submission to Jurisdiction; Choice of Forum. Each of the Parties
submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Northern District
of Illinois and of any Illinois state court sitting in the City of Chicago, in any action or
proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated herein and
agrees that all claims in respect of such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in any
such court. Each of the Parties waives any defense

56

 

of inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any
action or proceeding so brought and waives any bond, surety or other security that might be
required of any other Party with respect thereto. Nothing in this Section 10.10 however shall
affect the right of any Party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law. Each
Party agrees that a final judgment (after giving effect to any timely appeals) in any action or
proceeding so brought shall be conclusive and may be enforced by suit on the judgment or in any
other manner provided by law.

          Section 10.11 Parties in Interest. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is
intended to confer on any Person, other than the Parties and the Indemnified Persons and their
respective successors and permitted assigns, any rights or remedies under or by virtue of this
Agreement.

          Section 10.12 Waiver of Jury. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE PARTIES
HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF
OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR
THEREBY.
