Exhibit 10.32

INCENTIVE RETENTION AGREEMENT

     Transmeta Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and John O’Hara Horsley
(“Employee”) have entered into this Incentive Retention Agreement (this
“Agreement”), dated as of February 27, 2007 (the “Effective Date”), on the basis of
the following facts:

R E C I T A L S

     WHEREAS, the Company has filed on October 11, 2006 (the “Filing Date”) a lawsuit against Intel
Corporation (“Intel”) in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware for
infringement of ten of the Company’s U.S. patents covering computer architecture and power
efficiency technologies. That action, including any additional claims and counterclaims asserted
therein or in any related case or action between Transmeta and Intel, is referred to herein as the
“Lawsuit”. For purposes of this Agreement, the “Company” means the Company or the
successor-in-interest, if any, to materially all of the Company’s rights in the Lawsuit.

     WHEREAS, Employee has substantial knowledge regarding the claims and matters at issue in the
Lawsuit as well as substantial professional expertise in the litigation of complex patent and
intellectual property claims such as those at issue in the Lawsuit.

     WHEREAS, in lieu of hiring legal counsel to manage the Lawsuit on a contingency basis, the
Company wishes to provide Employee incentives to continue to manage the Lawsuit on behalf of the
Company to a final determination or resolution.

     WHEREAS, it is typical to pay legal counsel, hired on a contingency basis, approximately 25%
to 40% of the amount of the judgment received by the legal counsel’s client in the related lawsuit.
Accordingly, the Potential Incentive Amount (defined below) payable to Employee is calculated
based on [*]% of the net cash value received by the Company resulting from the Lawsuit, less out of
pocket costs and attorneys’ fees paid by the Company respecting the Lawsuit. The resulting amount
(the “Savings”) is then divided by [*] to derive the Potential Incentive Amount, as more fully
described below.

     WHEREAS, the Company and Employee desire to enter into this Agreement in consideration of
Employee’s continued employment with the Company upon the terms and conditions hereinafter
provided.

AGREEMENT

     NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:

     1.     Definitions.

     (a)     “Potential Incentive Amount” means the difference of (A) [*] of the Savings minus
(B) the Advance Payments. If the calculation of the Potential Incentive Amount results in a
negative number, then the Potential Incentive Amount equals zero.

detrimental to the Company; or (iii) willful and repeated failure or refusal to comply in any

Intel and its affiliates in cash pursuant to that settlement.

representative, such agreement as to acceptability not to be unreasonably withheld.

informed written consent, which condition remains in effect ten (10) days after written notice to
the Company from Employee of such condition: (a) a significant diminution by the Company in
Employee’s authority or duties in managing the Lawsuit on behalf of the Company, or (b) a material
reduction in Employee’s regular base salary (except in connection with a comparable reduction in
salary applicable to all executive-level employees of the Company), or (c) the Company’s requiring
Employee to be based at any office or location more than fifty (50) miles from the Company’s
current offices, other than on a temporary professional basis for purposes of the trial or any
other litigation-related proceedings in the Lawsuit, or (d) any material breach by the Company of
the terms of this Agreement, including but not limited to the failure by the Company to require a
successor-in-interest to the Company’s rights in the Lawsuit (whether direct or indirect, by
purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to assume expressly and agree to perform the
Company’s obligations under this Agreement, as if no such succession had taken place.

     (a)     On entry of the final, non-appealable judgment resolving all claims and counterclaims in
the Lawsuit or, if the Company and Intel instead enter a settlement resolving all claims and
counterclaims made in the Lawsuit and that settlement requires only the payment of cash or cash
equivalents by the parties to the Lawsuit, then the Company shall pay to Employee a bonus as
follows:

               (i)     If Employee is employed by the Company on the Determination Date, and has been
continuously employed by the Company on that date since the Effective Date, then the Company shall
pay to Employee, within 60 calendar days following the Determination Date, an amount in cash equal
to the Potential Incentive Amount.

               (ii)     If the Company terminates Employee’s employment without Cause prior to the Determination
Date (such date of termination referred to as the “Termination Date”), then the Company
shall pay to Employee, within 60 calendar days following the Determination Date, an amount in cash
equal to the greater of either: (1) the product of (A) the Potential Incentive Amount multiplied by
(B) the number of days from (and including) the Filing Date to (and including) the Termination Date
divided by the number of days from (and including) the Filing Date to (and including) the
Determination Date, or (2) in the event that the Termination Date occurs after judgment has been
entered in the Lawsuit but before the Determination Date, and to the extent that the final
non-appealable judgment resolving all claims and counterclaims in the Lawsuit substantially
reflects an affirmance of that judgment through regular appellate review, then the Potential
Incentive Amount.

               (iii)     If Employee resigns as an employee of the Company without Good Reason prior to the
Determination Date, then the Company will not be obligated to pay to Employee any portion of the
Potential Incentive Amount.

               (iv)     If Employee resigns as an employee of the Company with Good Reason prior to the
Determination Date, then the Company will pay to Employee, within 60 calendar

- 3 of 6 -

 

days following the Determination Date, an amount in cash determined in accordance with the
same measure set out above in Section 2(a)(ii).

               (v)     If Employee’s employment is terminated prior to the Determination Date by reason of his
death or Disability, then the Board of Directors of the Company will have discretion to decide what
portion of the Potential Incentive Amount, if any, shall be payable to Employee or his heirs or
successors, based on a good faith assessment of Employee’s contribution to the litigation of the
Lawsuit up to the Termination Date, and consistent with the intent reflected in this Section 2(a)
and below in Section 11.

     (b)     If the final, non-appealable judgment resolving all claims and counterclaims in the
Lawsuit or, if the Company and Intel instead enter a settlement resolving all claims and
counterclaims in the Lawsuit and that settlement involves consideration other than cash or cash
equivalents, then the Company shall pay to Employee a bonus, in an amount and on such date as
determined by the Company’s Board of Directors in good faith, consistent with the intent reflected
in Section 2(a) above.

     (c)     Unless in contravention of any express terms of this Agreement, any determination made by
the Company’s Board of Directors respecting the interpretation or meaning of any provision of
Sections 1 or 2 will be made in its sole discretion. Any such determination will be final and
binding on the Company and Employee.

     3.     Advance Payments. If Employee is employed by the Company on December 31, 2007,
and, on that date, has been continuously employed by the Company since the Effective Date, then the
Company will pay, within five days following December 31, 2007, to Employee an amount equal to
$250,000. The Company shall not be obligated to make that payment if the Determination Date occurs
prior to December 31, 2007. In addition, on each successive yearly anniversary date of December
31, 2007 that Employee is employed by the Company, and, on that date, has been continuously
employed by the Company since the Effective Date, then the Company will pay, within five days
following that date, to Employee an amount equal to $250,000; provided, that the Company shall not
be obligated to make such payment if the Determination Date occurs prior to that date. The
aggregate of the $250,000 payments actually paid to Employee pursuant to this Section 3, without
regard to withholdings made in accordance with Section 5, are referred to herein as the
“Advance Payments.” For avoidance of doubt, any Advance Payment to Employee under this
Agreement is in addition to Employee’s regular salary as an employee of the Company, and the
Company has no right of return or refund from Employee relating to any Advance Payment made under
this Agreement. Advance Payments are intended and expected to be the fundamental element of
Employee’s annual target bonus compensation during the pendency of the Lawsuit, and the Board of
Directors of the Company will determine from time to time, in good faith and in its sole discretion
consistent with the applicable compensation policies of the Company, the extent to which Employee
may also be eligible to continue to participate in the Company’s regular management incentive bonus
program based upon his other management contributions to the Company during the pendency of the
Lawsuit.

     4.     No Service or Employment Contract; No Delegation by the Board. This Agreement does
not confer upon Employee any right with respect to continuance of employment

- 4 of 6 -

 

by or service with the Company, nor does it interfere in any way with the right of the Company
to terminate Employee’s employment by or service with the Company at any time for any reason.
Further, this Agreement does not diminish the authority of the Company’s Board of Directors to
determine and approve any and all actions of the Company respecting the Lawsuit, nor delegate to
Employee any such authority of the Company’s Board of Directors.

     5.     Withholding. The Company is authorized to withhold from any benefit provided or
payment due hereunder the amount of withholding taxes due under any federal, state or local
authority in respect of such benefit or payment and to take such action as may be necessary in the
opinion of the Company to satisfy all obligations for the payment of such withholding taxes.

     6.     Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed and construed in accordance with
the laws of the State of California without regard to its conflict of laws provisions. The parties
agree that any action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement shall be brought in the courts
located in Santa Clara County, California, and the parties agree to the jurisdiction thereof. The
parties hereby irrevocably waive any objection they may now or hereafter have to the laying of
venue of any such action in the said court(s), and further irrevocably waive any claim they may now
or hereafter have that any such action brought in said court(s) has been brought in an inconvenient
forum.

     7.     Validity and Construction. This Agreement has been fully negotiated by the
Company, Employee and their respective independent legal counsel. The Company understands that the
Potential Incentive Amount and the Advance Payments in this Agreement are not set by law but rather
are fully negotiable between the Company and the Employee. This Agreement will be interpreted
fairly in accordance with its terms and without any strict construction in favor of or against
either the Company or Employee. The provisions of this Agreement are severable. If any provision
of this Agreement is determined by a court of law to be invalid or unenforceable, then such
provision will be enforced to the maximum extent possible and the other provisions will remain
fully effective and enforceable. In such contingency, the Company and Employee will also negotiate
in good faith, if necessary, a valid and enforceable substitute provision or agreement that most
nearly effects the intent of the Company and Employee in entering into this Agreement.

     8.     Amendment; Waivers. This Agreement may not be modified, altered or changed except
upon the express written consent of both parties wherein specific reference is made to this
Agreement. No delay on the part of any party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder
shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any waiver on the part of any party of any right,
power or privilege hereunder, nor any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege
hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power
or privilege hereunder.

     9.     Entire Agreement. This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement between the
parties hereto, and fully supersedes any prior agreements or understandings between the parties.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, the payments contemplated by this Agreement are in addition
to, and not in lieu of, compensation arrangements set forth in other agreements or understandings
between the parties that do not relate to the subject matter hereof, including without limitation
the Company’s Retention and Severance Plan.

     10.     Headings. Section headings are used herein for convenience or reference only and
shall not affect the meaning of any provision of this Agreement.

     11.     Successors. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and shall be binding
upon the Company and its successors and assigns. The rights and obligations of Employee under this
Agreement are personal in nature and shall neither be transferred nor assigned in whole or in part
by Employee. Subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in the preceding sentence of this
Section 11, in the event of Employee’s death, the rights of Employee under this Agreement shall
inure to the benefit of and shall be binding on Employee’s heirs, executors, administrators, legal
representatives, successors and assigns.

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

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement, as of the date first written
above.

as if made on the
Closing Date
(giving full effect to any supplements to the Disclosure Letter that were delivered by
Seller to Buyer prior to the Closing Date in accordance with Section 5.5); and

               (b) Buyer will deliver to or on behalf of Seller:

                    (i) Six Million Dollars ($6,000,000), of which $354,237.50 will be paid directly to
Madison Piping, LLC and $70,762.50 will be paid to Peter O’Conner as brokerage fees on
behalf of Seller (Seller shall provide instructions for making such payments) and $5,325,000 of

hereof;

respects as of the date of this Agreement and is accurate in all respects as of the Closing Date as
if made on the Closing Date; and

                    (v) the Employment Agreements, executed by Buyer.

               (d) Buyer shall deliver to Seller an additional Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000) subject to
the adjustments as set forth in Section 2.5, in payments of $1,000,000 dollars on January 31 of
each of the years 2008, 2009 and 2010. Five percent of each of these payments will be paid to
Madison Piping, LLC and Peter O’Conner, as instructed by Seller, as brokerage fees.

          2.5 Adjustment Procedure. The payments under Section 2.4 (d) will be made if the
Company has revenue of at least $30,000,000 and EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes,
depreciation and amortization) of at least $3,000,000, annually commencing with 2007. Buyer
will refer business to the Company which will produce $6,000,000 of the annual sales to the
Company, and if resulting sales are less than $6,000,000, the Company shall be deemed to have had
the full $6,000,000 in revenue. A shortfall in achieving the revenue and EBITDA target will result
in the reduction of the additional payment for that year by the same percentage that the ratio that
actual revenue and EBITDA bears to the revenue and EBITDA target, provided,

9

 

however, that the
amount hereunder shall not be reduced below $400,000.00 in any such year. If Seller disputes the
amounts as calculated by Buyer, Seller shall promptly give Buyer notice, and Seller and Buyer shall
each appoint a certified public accountant, the two shall appoint a third and they shall have
thirty (30) days to determine the amounts by majority vote.

          2.6 Right of Seller to Repurchase Shares. The parties agree that if within
twenty-four (24) months after the Closing, Buyer takes affirmative action to invite or promote the
establishment of a union for the employees of Hayden, Seller shall have the right to repurchase all
the issued and outstanding common stock of Hayden for a price equal to the then current fair market
value of Hayden. If the parties cannot agree on the fair market value (“FMV”), each party shall
appoint an appraiser and if the appraiser cannot agree on the FMV, they shall appoint a third
appraiser and the determination of the majority will be the FMV. The appraisers shall have thirty
(30) days to complete the determination. Seller must exercise his right of repurchase hereunder by
delivering written notice to Buyer no later than thirty (30) days after the date of any such
invitation or activities and such repurchase must close no later than thirty (30) days after the
date of such notice.

          3. Representations and Warranties of Seller. Seller represents and warrants to Buyer
as follows:

          3.1 Organization And Good Standing.

               (a) Part 3.1 of the Disclosure Letter contains a complete and accurate list for each Acquired
Company of its name, its jurisdiction of incorporation, other jurisdictions in which it is
authorized to do business, and its capitalization (including the identity of each stockholder and
the number of shares held by each). Each Acquired Company is a corporation duly organized, validly
existing, and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation, with full
corporate power and authority to conduct its business as it is now being conducted, to own or use
the properties and assets that it purports to own or use, and to perform all its obligations under
Applicable Contracts. Each Acquired Company is duly qualified to do business as a foreign
corporation and is in good standing under the laws of each state or other jurisdiction in which
either the ownership or use of the properties owned or used by it, or the nature of the activities
conducted by it, requires such qualification.

               (b) Seller has delivered to Buyer copies of the Organizational Documents of each Acquired
Company, as currently in effect.

          3.2 Authority; No Conflict.

               (a) This Agreement constitutes the legal, valid, and binding obligation of Seller, enforceable
against Seller in accordance with its terms. Upon the execution and delivery
by Seller of the Escrow Agreement, the Employment Agreements and the Seller’s Release,
(collectively, the “Seller’s Closing Documents”), the Seller’s Closing Documents will constitute
the legal, valid, and binding obligations of Seller, enforceable against Seller in accordance with
their respective terms. Seller has the absolute and unrestricted right, power, authority, and
capacity to execute and deliver this Agreement and the Seller’s Closing Documents and to perform
his obligations under this Agreement and the Seller’s Closing Documents.

10

 

               (b) Except as set forth in Part 3.2 of the Disclosure Letter, neither the execution and
delivery of this Agreement nor the consummation or performance of any of the Contemplated
Transactions will, directly or indirectly (with or without notice or lapse of time):

                    (i) contravene, conflict with, or result in a violation of (A) any provision of the
Organizational Documents of the Acquired Companies, or (B) any resolution adopted by the board of
directors or the stockholders of any Acquired Company;

                    (ii) contravene, conflict with, or result in a violation of, or give any Governmental Body or
other Person the right to challenge any of the Contemplated Transactions or to exercise any remedy
or obtain any relief under, any Legal Requirement or any Order to which any Acquired Company or
either Seller, or any of the assets owned or used by any Acquired Company, may be subject;

                    (iii) contravene, conflict with, or result in a violation of any of the terms or requirements
of, or give any Governmental Body the right to revoke, withdraw, suspend, cancel, terminate, or
modify, any Governmental Authorization that is held by any Acquired Company or that otherwise
relates to the business of, or any of the assets owned or used by, any Acquired Company;

                    (iv) cause any Acquired Company to become subject to, or to become liable for the payment of,
any Tax;

                    (v) cause any of the assets owned by any Acquired Company to be reassessed or revalued by any
taxing authority or other Governmental Body;

                    (vi) contravene, conflict with, or result in a violation or breach of any provision of, or
give any Person the right to declare a default or exercise any remedy under, or to accelerate the
maturity or performance of, or to cancel, terminate, or modify, any Applicable Contract; or

                    (vii) result in the imposition or creation of any Encumbrance upon or with respect to any of
the assets owned or used by any Acquired Company.

          Except as set forth in Part 3.2 of the Disclosure Letter, no Seller or Acquired Company is or
will be required to give any notice to or obtain any Consent from any Person in connection with the
execution and delivery of this Agreement or the consummation or performance of any of the
Contemplated Transactions.

               (c) Sellers are acquiring the common stock of Buyer for their own account and not with a view
to their distribution within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the
Securities Act. Each Seller is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501(a)
under the Securities Act.

               (d) The sale of the shares of common stock of Buyer (“Buyer Shares”) will not be pursuant to a
registration statement under the Securities Act; however, the Buyer Shares may be sold (i) under
the Securities Act Rule 144, after a holding period of one year, (Buyer shall use its best efforts
to satisfy the conditions of Rule 144(c)) (ii) if the Buyer’s Shares

11

 

are subject to an effective
registration statement under the Securities Act, pursuant to that registration statement, or (iii)
pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. Buyer is under
no obligation to register the Buyer Shares. The Seller further understands that the Buyer’s Shares
will be restricted securities within the meaning of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act
and that the share certificate representing the Buyer shares will be stamped with a customary
legend or legends restricting the transferability of the Buyer Shares.

          3.3 Capitalization. The authorized equity securities of each of Hayden and Hudson consists of 200 shares of
common stock, no par value, of which 20 shares are issued and outstanding and collectively
constitute the Shares. Seller is and will be on the Closing Date the record and beneficial owner
and holder of the Shares, free and clear of all Encumbrances. All of the Shares, are owned of
record and beneficially by Seller and all of the outstanding equity securities of each Subsidiary
are owned of record and beneficially by one or more of Hayden and Hudson, in each case free and
clear of all Encumbrances. No legend or other reference to any purported Encumbrance appears upon
any certificate representing equity securities of any of Hayden and Hudson. All of the outstanding
equity securities of each Hayden and Hudson have been duly authorized and validly issued and are
fully paid and nonassessable. There are no Contracts relating to the issuance, sale, or transfer of
any equity securities or other securities of either Hayden and Hudson. None of the outstanding
equity securities or other securities of any of Hayden and Hudson were issued in violation of the
Securities Act or any other Legal Requirement. Neither Hayden nor Hudson owns, or has any Contract
to acquire, any equity securities or other securities of any Person (other than Hayden or Hudson)
or any direct or indirect equity or ownership interest in any other business.

          3.4 Reserved.

          3.5 Reserved.

          3.6 Title to Properties; Encumbrances. Part 3.6 of the Disclosure Letter contains a complete and accurate list of all real
property, leaseholds, or other interests therein owned by any Acquired Company. Seller has
delivered or made available to Buyer copies of the deeds and other instruments (as recorded) by
which the Acquired Companies acquired such real property and interests, and copies of all title
insurance policies, opinions, abstracts, and surveys in the possession of Seller or the
Acquired Companies and relating to such property or interests. The Acquired Companies own (with
good and marketable title in the case of real property, subject only to the matters permitted by
the following sentence) all the properties and assets (whether real, personal, or mixed and whether
tangible or intangible) that they purport to own located in the facilities owned or operated by the
Acquired Companies or reflected as owned in the books and records of the Acquired Companies,
including all of the properties and assets reflected in the Balance Sheet and the Interim Balance
Sheet (except for assets held under capitalized leases disclosed or not required to be disclosed in
Part 3.6 of the Disclosure Letter and personal property sold since the date of the Balance Sheet
and the Interim Balance Sheet, as the case may be, in the Ordinary Course of Business), and all of
the properties and assets purchased or otherwise acquired by the Acquired Companies since the date
of the Balance Sheet (except for personal property acquired and sold since the date of the Balance
Sheet in the Ordinary Course of Business and consistent with past practice), which subsequently
purchased or

12

 

acquired properties and assets (other than inventory and short-term investments) are
listed in Part 3.6 of the Disclosure Letter. All material properties and assets reflected in the
Balance Sheet and the Interim Balance Sheet are free and clear of all Encumbrances and are not, in
the case of real property, subject to any rights of way, building use restrictions, exceptions,
variances, reservations, or limitations of any nature except, with respect to all such properties
and assets, (a) mortgages or security interests shown on the Balance Sheet or the Interim Balance
Sheet as securing specified liabilities or obligations, with respect to which no default (or event
that, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a default) exists, (b) mortgages or
security interests incurred in connection with the purchase of property or assets after the date of
the Interim Balance Sheet (such mortgages and security interests being limited to the property or
assets so acquired), with respect to which no default (or event that, with notice or lapse of time
or both, would constitute a default) exists, (c) liens for current taxes not yet due, and (d) with
respect to real property, (i) minor imperfections of title, if any, none of which is substantial in
amount, materially detracts from the value or impairs the use of the property subject thereto, or
impairs the operations of any Acquired Company, and (ii) zoning laws and other land use
restrictions that do not impair the present or anticipated use of the property subject thereto. All
buildings, plants, and structures owned by the Acquired Companies lie wholly within the boundaries
of the real property owned by the Acquired Companies and do not encroach upon the property of, or
otherwise conflict with the property rights of, any other Person.

          3.7 Condition and Sufficiency of Assets. Except as set forth in Part 3.7 of the
Disclosure Letter, the buildings, plants, structures, and equipment of the Acquired Companies are
structurally sound, are in good operating condition and repair, and are adequate for the uses to
which they are being put, and none of such buildings, plants, structures, or equipment is in need
of maintenance or repairs except for ordinary, routine maintenance and repairs that are not
material in nature or cost. The building, plants, structures, and equipment of the Acquired
Companies are sufficient for the continued conduct of the Acquired Companies’ businesses after the
Closing in substantially the same manner as conducted prior to the Closing.

          3.8 Accounts Receivable. All accounts receivable of the Acquired Companies that are reflected on the Balance Sheet
or the Interim Balance Sheet or on the accounting records of the Acquired Companies as of the
Closing Date (collectively, the “Accounts Receivable”) represent or will
represent valid obligations arising from sales actually made or services actually performed in
the Ordinary Course of Business. Unless paid prior to the Closing Date, the Accounts Receivable are
or will be as of the Closing Date current and collectible net of the respective reserves shown on
the Balance Sheet or the Interim Balance Sheet or on the accounting records of the Acquired
Companies as of the Closing Date (which reserves are adequate and calculated consistent with past
practice and, in the case of the reserve as of the Closing Date, will not represent a greater
percentage of the Accounts Receivable as of the Closing Date than the reserve reflected in the
Interim Balance Sheet represented of the Accounts Receivable reflected therein and will not
represent a material adverse change in the composition of such Accounts Receivable in terms of
aging). Subject to such reserves, each of the Accounts Receivable either has been or will be
collected in full, without any set-off, within ninety days after the day on which it first becomes
due and payable. There is no contest, claim, or right of set-off, other than returns in the
Ordinary Course of Business, under any Contract with any obligor of an Accounts Receivable relating
to the amount or validity of such Accounts Receivable. Part 3.8 of the Disclosure Letter contains a
complete and accurate list of all

13

 

Accounts Receivable as of the date of the Interim Balance Sheet,
which list sets forth the aging of such Accounts Receivable.

          3.9 Inventory. All inventory of the Acquired Companies, whether or not reflected in the Balance Sheet or
the Interim Balance Sheet, consists of a quality and quantity usable and salable in the Ordinary
Course of Business, except for obsolete items and items of below-standard quality, all of which
have been written off or written down to net realizable value in the Balance Sheet or the Interim
Balance Sheet or on the accounting records of the Acquired Companies as of the Closing Date, as the
case may be. All inventories not written off have been priced at cost. The quantities of each item
of inventory (whether raw materials, work-in-process, or finished goods) are not excessive, but are
reasonable in the present circumstances of the Acquired Companies.

          3.10 Undisclosed Liabilities. Except as set forth in Part 3.10 of the Disclosure Letter, the Acquired Companies have no
liabilities or obligations of any nature (whether known or unknown and whether absolute, accrued,
contingent, or otherwise) except for liabilities or obligations reflected or reserved against in
the Balance Sheet or the Interim Balance Sheet and current liabilities incurred in the Ordinary
Course of Business since the respective dates thereof.

          3.11 Taxes.

               (a) The Acquired Companies have filed or caused to be filed (on a timely basis since
inception) all Tax Returns that are or were required to be filed by or with respect to any of them,
either separately or as a member of a group of corporations, pursuant to applicable Legal
Requirements. Seller has delivered to Buyer copies of, and Part 3.11 of the Disclosure Letter
contains a complete and accurate list of, all such Tax Returns filed since 2003. The Acquired
Companies have paid, or made provision for the payment of, all Taxes that have or may have become
due pursuant to those Tax Returns or otherwise, or pursuant to any assessment received by Seller or
any Acquired Company, except such Taxes, if any, as are listed in Part 3.11
of the Disclosure Letter and are being contested in good faith and as to which adequate
reserves (determined in accordance with GAAP) have been provided in the Balance Sheet and the
Interim Balance Sheet.

               (b) The United States federal and state income Tax Returns of each Acquired Company subject to
such Taxes have been audited by the IRS or relevant state tax authorities or are closed by the
applicable statute of limitations for all taxable years through 2002. Part 3.11 of the Disclosure
Letter contains a complete and accurate list of all audits of all such Tax Returns, including a
reasonably detailed description of the nature and outcome of each audit. All deficiencies proposed
as a result of such audits have been paid, reserved against, settled, or, as described in Part 3.11
of the Disclosure Letter, are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings. Part 3.11
of the Disclosure Letter describes all adjustments to the United States federal income Tax Returns
filed by any Acquired Company or any group of corporations including any Acquired Company for all
taxable years since inception, and the resulting deficiencies proposed by the IRS. Except as
described in Part 3.11 of the Disclosure Letter, no Seller or Acquired Company has given or been
requested to give waivers or extensions

14

 

(or is or would be subject to a waiver or extension given
by any other Person) of any statute of limitations relating to the payment of Taxes of any Acquired
Company or for which any Acquired Company may be liable.

               (c) The charges, accruals, and reserves with respect to Taxes on the respective books of each
Acquired Company are adequate (determined in accordance with GAAP) and are at least equal to that
Acquired Company’s liability for Taxes. There exists no proposed tax assessment against any
Acquired Company except as disclosed in the Balance Sheet or in Part 3.11 of the Disclosure Letter.
No consent to the application of Section 341(f)(2) of the IRC has been filed with respect to any
property or assets held, acquired, or to be acquired by any Acquired Company. All Taxes that any
Acquired Company is or was required by Legal Requirements to withhold or collect have been duly
withheld or collected and, to the extent required, have been paid to the proper Governmental Body
or other Person.

               (d) All Tax Returns filed by (or that include on a consolidated basis) any Acquired Company
are true, correct, and complete. There is no tax sharing agreement that will require any payment by
any Acquired Company after the date of this Agreement.

          3.12 No Material Adverse Change. Since the date of the Balance Sheet, there has not been any material adverse change in the
business, operations, properties, prospects, assets, or condition of any Acquired Company, and no
event has occurred or circumstance exists that may result in such a material adverse change.

Section 2.4(a)(v) as having caused the condition specified in Section 7.1 not to be satisfied;

41

 

               (c) any Breach by either Seller of any covenant or obligation of such Seller in this

Hazardous Materials or other contaminants that were present on the Facilities or such other
properties and assets at any time on or prior to the Closing Date; or (ii) (A) any Hazardous
Materials or other contaminants, wherever located, that were, or were allegedly, generated,

          10.5 Time Limitations. If the Closing occurs, Seller will have no liability (for indemnification or otherwise)
with respect to any representation or warranty, or covenant or obligation to be performed and
complied with prior to the Closing Date, other than those in Sections 3.1, 3.3, 3.11, 3.13, and
3.19, unless on or before December 31, 2009 Buyer notifies Seller of a claim specifying the factual
basis of that claim in reasonable detail to the extent then known by Buyer; a claim with respect to
Section 3.3, 3.11, 3.13, or 3.19, or a claim for indemnification or reimbursement not based upon
any representation or warranty or any covenant or obligation to be performed and complied with
prior to the Closing Date, may be made at any time.

          10.6 Limitations On Amount—Seller. Seller will have no liability (for indemnification or otherwise) with respect to the
matters described in clause (a), clause (b) or, to the extent relating to any failure to perform or
comply prior to the Closing Date, clause (c) of Section 10.2 in an amount in excess of $600,000.
However, this Section 10.6 will not apply to any Breach of any of Seller’s representations and
warranties of which either Seller had Knowledge at any time prior to the date on which such
representation and warranty is made or any intentional Breach by either Seller of any covenant or
obligation, and Seller will be jointly and severally liable for all Damages with respect to such
Breaches.

          10.7 Limitations on Amount—Buyer. Buyer will have no liability (for indemnification or otherwise) with respect to the matters
in excess of $600,000. However, this Section 10.7 will not apply to any Breach of any of Buyer’s
representations and warranties of which Buyer had Knowledge at any time prior to the date on which
such representation and warranty is made or any intentional Breach by Buyer of any covenant or
obligation, and Buyer will be liable for all Damages with respect to such Breaches.

          10.8 Escrow; Right Of Set-Off. Subject to Section 10 .6, upon notice to Seller specifying in reasonable detail the basis
for such set-off, Buyer may set off any amount to which

43

 

it may be entitled under this Section 10
against amounts otherwise payable. Neither the exercise of nor the failure to exercise such right
of set-off or to give a notice of a Claim under the Escrow Agreement will constitute an election of
remedies or limit Buyer in any manner in the enforcement of any other remedies that may be
available to it.

          10.9 Procedure For Indemnification—Third Party Claims.

               (a) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under Section 10.2, 10.4, or (to the extent
provided in the last sentence of Section 10.3) Section 10.3 of notice of the commencement of any
Proceeding against it, such indemnified party will, if a claim is to be made against an
indemnifying party under such Section, give notice to the indemnifying party of the commencement of
such claim, but the failure to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying
party of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party, except to the extent that the
indemnifying party demonstrates that the defense of such action is prejudiced by the indemnifying
party’s failure to give such notice.

               (b) If any Proceeding referred to in Section 10.9(a) is brought against an indemnified party
and it gives notice to the indemnifying party of the commencement of such Proceeding, the
indemnifying party will, unless the claim involves Taxes, be entitled to participate in such
Proceeding and, to the extent that it wishes (unless (i) the indemnifying party is also a party to
such Proceeding and the indemnified party determines in good faith that joint representation would
be inappropriate, or (ii) the indemnifying party fails to provide reasonable assurance to the
indemnified party of its financial capacity to defend such Proceeding and provide indemnification
with respect to such Proceeding), to assume the defense of such Proceeding with counsel
satisfactory to the indemnified party and, after notice from the indemnifying party to the
indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such Proceeding, the indemnifying party
will not, as long as it diligently conducts such defense, be liable to the indemnified party under
this Section 10 for any fees of other counsel or any other expenses with respect to the defense of
such Proceeding, in each case subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the
defense of such Proceeding, other than reasonable costs of investigation. If the indemnifying party
assumes the defense of a Proceeding, (i) it will be conclusively established for purposes of this
Agreement that the claims made in that Proceeding are within the scope of and subject to
indemnification; (ii) no compromise or settlement of such claims may be effected by the
indemnifying party without the indemnified party’s consent unless (A) there is no finding or
admission of any violation of Legal Requirements or any violation of the rights of any Person and
no effect on any other claims that may be made against the indemnified party, and (B) the sole
relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the indemnifying party; and (iii) the
indemnified party will have no liability with respect to any compromise or settlement of such
claims effected without its consent. If notice is given to an indemnifying party of the
commencement of any Proceeding and the indemnifying party does not, within ten days after the
indemnified party’s notice is given, give notice to the indemnified party of its election to assume
the defense of such Proceeding, the indemnifying party will be bound by any determination made in
such Proceeding or any compromise or settlement effected by the indemnified party.

               (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an indemnified party determines in good faith that there
is a reasonable probability that a Proceeding may adversely affect it or its

44

 

affiliates other than
as a result of monetary damages for which it would be entitled to indemnification under this
Agreement, the indemnified party may, by notice to the indemnifying party, assume the exclusive
right to defend, compromise, or settle such Proceeding, but the indemnifying party will not be
bound by any determination of a Proceeding so defended or any compromise or settlement effected
without its consent (which may not be unreasonably withheld).

               (d) Seller hereby consents to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any court in which a
Proceeding is brought against any Indemnified Person for purposes of any claim that an Indemnified
Person may have under this Agreement with respect to such Proceeding or the matters alleged
therein, and agree that process may be served on Seller with respect to such a claim anywhere in
the world.

          10.10 Procedure For Indemnification—Other Claims. A claim for indemnification for any matter not involving a third-party claim may be
asserted by notice to the party from whom indemnification is sought.

     11. General Provisions.

          11.1 Expenses. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, each party to this Agreement will
bear its respective expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, execution, and
performance of this Agreement and the Contemplated Transactions, including all fees and expenses of
agents, representatives, counsel, and accountants. Seller will cause the Acquired Companies not to
incur any out-of-pocket expenses in connection with this Agreement. In the event of termination of
this Agreement, the obligation of each party to pay its own expenses will be subject to any rights
of such party arising from a breach of this Agreement by another party.

          11.2 Public Announcements. Any public announcement or similar publicity with respect to this Agreement or the
Contemplated Transactions will be issued, if at all, at such time and in such manner as Buyer
determines. Unless consented to by Buyer in advance or required by Legal Requirements, prior to the
Closing Seller shall, and shall cause the Acquired Companies to, keep this Agreement strictly
confidential and may not make any disclosure of this Agreement to any Person. Seller and Buyer will
consult with each other concerning the means by which the Acquired Companies’ employees, customers,
and suppliers and others having dealings with the Acquired Companies will be informed of the
Contemplated Transactions, and Buyer will have the right to be present for any such communication.

          11.3 Confidentiality. Between the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date, Buyer and Seller will maintain in
confidence, and will cause the directors, officers, employees, agents, and advisors of Buyer and
the Acquired Companies to maintain in confidence, any written information stamped “confidential”
when originally furnished by another party or an Acquired Company in connection with this Agreement
or the Contemplated Transactions, unless (a) such information is already known to such party or to
others not bound by a duty of confidentiality or such information becomes publicly available
through no fault of such party, (b) such information is required to be disclosed or reported by any
Legal Requirements, (c) the use of such information is necessary or appropriate in making any
filing or

45

 

obtaining any consent or approval required for the consummation of the Contemplated
Transactions, or (d) the furnishing or use of such information is required by or necessary or
appropriate in connection with legal proceedings.

          If the Contemplated Transactions are not consummated, each party will return or destroy as
much of such written information as the other party may reasonably request. Whether or not the
Closing takes place, Seller waives, and will upon Buyer’s request cause the Acquired Companies to
waive, any cause of action, right, or claim arising out of the access of Buyer or its
representatives to any trade secrets or other confidential information of the Acquired Companies

          11.5 Jurisdiction; Service Of Process. Any action or proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any right arising
out of, this Agreement may be brought against any of the parties in the courts of the State of
Oklahoma, County of Oklahoma, or, if it has or can acquire jurisdiction, in the United States
District Court for the Western District of Oklahoma, and each of the parties consents to
the jurisdiction of such courts (and of the appropriate appellate courts) in any such action
or proceeding and waives any objection to venue laid therein. Process in any action or proceeding
referred to in the preceding sentence may be served on any party anywhere in the world.

          11.6 Further Assurances. The parties agree (a) to furnish upon request to each other such further information, (b)
to execute and deliver to each other such other documents, and (c) to do such other acts and
things, all as the other party may reasonably request for the purpose of carrying out the intent of
this Agreement and the documents referred to in this Agreement.

          11.7 Waiver. The rights and remedies of the parties to this Agreement are cumulative and not
alternative. Neither the failure nor any delay by any party in exercising any right, power, or
privilege under this Agreement or the documents referred to in this Agreement will operate as a
waiver of such right, power, or privilege, and no single or partial exercise of any such right,
power, or privilege will preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power, or privilege
or the exercise of any other right, power, or privilege. To the maximum extent permitted by
applicable law, (a) no claim or right arising out of this Agreement or the documents referred to in
this Agreement can be discharged by one party, in whole or in part, by a waiver or renunciation of
the claim or right unless in writing signed by the other party; (b) no waiver that may be given by
a party will be applicable except in the specific instance for which it is given; and (c) no notice
to or demand on one party will be deemed to be a waiver of any obligation of such party or of the
right of the party giving such notice or demand to take further action without notice or demand as
provided in this Agreement or the documents referred to in this Agreement.

          11.8 Entire Agreement And Modification. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements between the parties with respect to its
subject matter and constitutes (along with the documents referred to in this Agreement) a complete
and exclusive statement of the terms of the agreement between the parties with respect to its
subject matter. This Agreement may not be amended except by a written agreement executed by the
party to be charged with the amendment.

          11.9 Disclosure Letter.

               (a) The disclosures in the Disclosure Letter, and those in any Supplement thereto, must relate
only to the representations and warranties in the Section of the Agreement to which they expressly
relate and not to any other representation or warranty in this Agreement.

               (b) In the event of any inconsistency between the statements in the body of this Agreement and
those in the Disclosure Letter (other than an exception expressly set forth

47

 

as such in the
Disclosure Letter with respect to a specifically identified representation or warranty), the
statements in the body of this Agreement will control.

          11.10 Assignments, Successors, And No Third-Party Rights. Neither party may assign any of its rights under this Agreement without the prior consent
of the other parties, which will not be unreasonably withheld, except that Buyer may assign any of
its rights under this Agreement to any Subsidiary of Buyer. Subject to the preceding sentence, this
Agreement will apply to, be binding in all respects upon, and inure to the benefit of the
successors and permitted assigns of the parties. Nothing expressed or referred to in this Agreement
will be construed to give any Person other than the parties to this Agreement any legal or
equitable right, remedy, or claim under or with respect to this Agreement or any provision of this
Agreement. This Agreement and all of its provisions and conditions are for the sole and exclusive
benefit of the parties to this Agreement and their successors and assigns.

          11.11 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable by any court of
competent jurisdiction, the other provisions of this Agreement will remain in full force and
effect. Any provision of this Agreement held invalid or unenforceable only in part or degree will
remain in full force and effect to the extent not held invalid or unenforceable.

          11.12 Section Headings, Construction. The headings of Sections in this Agreement are provided for convenience only and will not
affect its construction or interpretation. All references to “Section” or “Sections” refer to the
corresponding Section or Sections of this Agreement. All words used in this Agreement will be
construed to be of such gender or number as the circumstances require. Unless otherwise expressly
provided, the word “including” does not limit the preceding words or terms.

          11.13 Time Of Essence. With regard to all dates and time periods set forth or referred to in this Agreement, time
is of the essence.

          11.14 Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by the laws of the State of Oklahoma without regard to
conflicts of laws principles.

          11.15 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed to
be an original copy of this Agreement and all of which, when taken together, will be deemed to
constitute one and the same agreement.
