Pursuant to the Financing and the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Precision Shareholders shall have converted, or to the extent not converted prior to the First Closing, shall convert all of their shares of Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (“Converted Common Stock”). The Precision Stockholders and the Board of Directors shall authorize any and all amendments to the Preferred Stock certificates and take any other actions necessary to effect the conversion of all Preferred Stock to Converted Common Stock prior to, at, or immediately following the First Closing. The Precision Shareholders shall take all action necessary under all applicable Legal Requirements to approve the Certificate Amendment, to approve any plan of reorganization or other corporate restructuring of the Company that does not adversely impact the ownership interest of the Precision Shareholders in any material respect, and to approve any other aspects of the Transaction that require Shareholder approval under applicable Legal Requirements or the Company’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws.
   
  Section 6.3 Information Statements. As promptly as practicable after the Effective Date, the Company shall prepare a draft of the 14(c) Information Statement and 14(f) Information Statement. The Company shall provide the Purchasers with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such draft, and once such draft is in a form reasonably acceptable to each of the Parties, the Company shall file the 14(c) Information Statement and 14(f) Information Statement with the SEC. As promptly as possible, following the Effective Date, the Purchasers shall furnish to the Company all information customarily included in 14(c) Information Statement and 14(f) Information Statement prepared in connection with the Transaction, and the Purchasers shall cause their Representatives to cooperate with Representatives of the Company in the preparation of the 14(c) Information Statement and 14(f) Information Statement and to assist and cooperate with the resolution of any comments the SEC or its staff may provide.
   
  	 
	34

	  

	 

   
  (a) The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) respond to any comments on the 14(c) Information Statement or 14(f) Information Statement or requests for additional information from the SEC as soon as practicable after receipt of any such comments or requests, and (ii) cause the 14(c) Information Statement and 14(f) Information Statement to be mailed to the Shareholders as promptly as practicable after the SEC has declared each effective. The Company shall promptly (A) notify the Purchasers upon the receipt of any such comments or requests and (B) provide the Purchasers and their Representatives with copies of all correspondence between the Company and its Representatives, on the one hand, and the SEC and its staff, on the other hand. If at any time, any information relating to the Company, the Purchasers or any of their Affiliates or Representatives should be discovered by the Company which should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to either the 14(c) Information Statement or 14(f) Information Statement, so that either the 14(c) Information Statement or 14(f) Information Statement shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading, the Party which discovers such information shall promptly notify the other parties, and an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall be filed with the SEC and, to the extent required by Legal Requirement, disseminated to the Shareholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to responding to any comments or requests of the SEC or the filing or mailing of either the 14(c) Information Statement or 14(f) Information Statement (or any amendment or supplement thereto), the Company (x) shall provide the Purchasers and their Representatives with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on any drafts of either the 14(c) Information Statement or 14(f) Information Statement and related correspondence and filings and (y) shall include in such drafts, correspondence and filings all comments reasonably proposed by or on behalf of the Purchasers.
   
  Section 6.4 Cooperation; Regulatory Filings.
   
  (a) The Parties shall cooperate fully with each other and shall take, or cause to be taken, all action under all applicable Legal Requirements necessary to consummate the Transaction, including, without limitation, the implementation of any plan of reorganization or other corporate restructuring of the Company.
   
  (b) The Company shall make all material filings and notices required by any federal, state, local, municipal, foreign, international, multinational, or other administrative order, constitution, law, ordinance, regulation, statute, or treaty, including, without limitation all requisite filings with the SEC, necessary for the consummation of the Transaction, and shall promptly submit any additional information requested with such filings and notices that are related to this Agreement and the Transaction. The Purchasers will cooperate with the Company with respect to any material filing required by applicable Legal Requirements in connection with the Transaction.
   
  Section 6.5 Survival of Representations and Warranties and Agreements. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Parties herein shall survive the execution of this Agreement, the delivery to the Purchasers of the Purchased Shares being purchased and the payment therefor for a period of twelve (12) months after the Closing Date. This Section 6.5 shall not limit any covenant or agreement of the Parties to this Agreement which, by its terms, expressly contemplates performance after such 12-month period.
   
  	 
	35

	  

	 

   
  Section 6.6 Indemnification Provisions.
   
  (a) Indemnification. From and after the Effective Date, the Company and Andrew Prince (each an “Indemnifying Party”, collectively, the “Indemnifying Parties”) will jointly and severally indemnify, hold harmless, and defend each Purchaser and its officers, directors, and Affiliates (the “Indemnified Party” or, collectively the “Indemnified Parties”) against any Adverse Consequences (as defined below) which the Indemnified Party may suffer resulting from or arising out of a breach of any of Company’s representations or warranties (as of the Effective Date) or covenants or other agreements contained in this Agreement, provided that the Indemnified Party makes a written claim for indemnification against the Indemnifying Parties pursuant to Section 6.6(b) below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Andrew Prince will not have an obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Parties other than with regard to items in Article III and Section 5.1 as it pertains to him each as of the Effective Date (other than for any indemnification claims based on fraud or willful misconduct by Andrew Prince, as to which this sentence shall not apply), unless the aggregate amount of Adverse Consequences exceeds $100,000, and thereafter Andrew Prince shall be liable for all Adverse Consequences (including the first $100,000) until such Damages reach the Cap Amount (as defined below). For purposes of the preceding sentence, the outstanding amount of the Shareholder Note (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) at the time such written claim is made by the Indemnified Party is the Cap Amount. As a condition to the limitations set forth in the preceding two sentences, Andrew Prince agrees to cooperate in assisting the Company to obtain from the Precision Stockholders, Brett Prince, Kenneth Prince, Alex Kreger and Rich Kreger the executed documents reasonably requested by the Purchasers, including without limitation the actions and consents described in Section 6.2 and provide full cooperation with respect to the Serabin lawsuit. Subject to the foregoing limitations, with respect to the indemnification obligations pursuant to this Section 6.6, the Indemnified Party will have the right to offset any Adverse Consequences incurred by Indemnified Party only against payments due by the Company to Prince under the Shareholder Note. The indemnification obligations of Andrew Prince shall survive and continue only for a period of one (1) year after the Effective Date.
   
  (b) Matters Involving Third Parties. If any third party notifies the Indemnified Party with respect to any matter (a “Third-Party Claim”) that may give rise to a claim for indemnification against the Indemnifying Parties under this Section 6.6, then the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Parties thereof in writing; provided, however, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in notifying any Indemnifying Parties shall relieve the Indemnifying Parties from any obligation hereunder unless (and then solely to the extent) the Indemnifying Parties are thereby prejudiced.
   
  	 
	36

	  

	 

   
  (i) The Indemnifying Parties will have the right to defend the Indemnified Party against the Third-Party Claim with counsel of its choice reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party so long as (i) the Indemnifying Parties notify the Indemnified Party in writing within fifteen (15) days after the Indemnified Party has given notice of the Third-Party Claim that the Indemnifying Parties will defend against the Third-Party Claim, (ii) the Indemnifying Parties provide the Indemnified Party with evidence reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying Parties will have the financial resources to defend against the Third-Party Claim, (iii) the Third-Party Claim involves only money damages and does not seek an injunction or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party, (iv) settlement of, or an adverse judgment with respect to, the Third-Party Claim is not, in the good faith judgment of the Indemnified Party, likely to establish a precedential custom or practice adverse to the continuing business interests or the reputation of the Indemnified Party, and (v) the Indemnifying Parties vigorously prosecute and defend against the Third-Party Claim.
   
  (ii) So long as the Indemnifying Parties are conducting the defense of the Third-Party Claim in accordance with Section 6.6(b)(i) above, (i) the Indemnified Party may retain separate co-counsel at its sole cost and expense and participate in the defense of the Third-Party Claim subject to the Indemnifying Parties' right to direct the defense, (ii) the Indemnified Party will not consent to the entry of any judgment on or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Parties (not to be unreasonably withheld), and (iii) the Indemnifying Parties will not consent to the entry of any judgment on or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (not to be unreasonably withheld) unless the Indemnified Party receives a full release with respect to such Third-Party Claim and any monetary damages are paid in full by the Indemnifying Parties.
   
  (iii) In the event the Indemnifying Parties do not assume control of the defense of any Third-Party Claim, (i) the Indemnified Party may defend against the Third-Party Claim, and (ii) the Indemnified Party may consent to the entry of any judgment on or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Parties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Indemnifying Parties will have no indemnification obligations with respect to any claim which has been or will be settled by the Indemnified Party without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Parties.
   
  Section 6.7 Adverse Consequences. For purposes of this Article VI, “Adverse Consequences” means all damages, costs, obligations, liabilities, losses, expenses, and fees, including court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses; provided, however, that Adverse Consequences shall exclude punitive, incidental, consequential and special damages (except to the extent included in damages paid by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party in respect of any Third Party Claim).

  ARTICLE VII
  GENERAL PROVISIONS
   
  Section 7.1 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the documents and instruments and other agreements among the Parties hereto as contemplated by or referred to herein, including the Transaction Documents and the Disclosure Schedules, constitute the entire agreement between the Parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any and all prior discussions, negotiations, proposals, undertakings, understandings, and agreements, whether written or oral, with respect hereto.
   
  Section 7.2 Disclosure Schedules. All capitalized terms not defined in the Disclosure Schedules shall have the meanings assigned to them in this Agreement. Each representation and warranty of a party in this Agreement is made and given, and the covenants are agreed to, subject to the disclosures and exceptions set forth on such party’s Disclosure Schedule. The disclosure of any matter in any section of the Disclosure Schedule shall be deemed to be a disclosure for all purposes of this Agreement and all other sections of the Disclosure Schedule to which such disclosure reasonably would be inferred. The listing of any matter on the Disclosure Schedule shall expressly not be deemed to constitute an admission, or to otherwise imply, that any such matter is material, is required to be disclosed under this Agreement or falls within relevant minimum thresholds or materiality standards set forth in this Agreement. No disclosure in the Disclosure Schedule relating to any possible breach or violation of any Contract or Legal Requirement shall be construed as an admission or indication that any such breach or violation exists or has actually occurred. In no event shall the listing of any matter in the Disclosure Schedule be deemed or interpreted to expand the scope of the representations, warranties and/or covenants set forth in this Agreement.
   
  Section 7.3 Notices. All notices, requests, consents and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given if delivered personally, sent via facsimile, with confirmation, mailed by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, or delivered by an express courier, with confirmation, to the parties at the following addresses or at such other address for a Party as shall be specified by like notice:

Section 7.4 Headings. The headings of the various sections of this Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not be deemed to be part of this Agreement.
   
  Section 7.5 Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Parties hereto and their respective heirs, representatives, successors and assigns.
   
  Section 7.6 Waiver of a Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING BETWEEN THE PARTIES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTION.
   
  	 
	39

	  

	 

   
  Section 7.7 Severability. In case any provision contained in this Agreement should be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
   
  Section 7.8 Rules of Construction; Attorney-Client Privilege. The Parties hereto agree that they have been represented by counsel during the negotiation, preparation and execution of this Agreement and therefore waive the application of any law, rule, regulation, holding or rule of construction providing that ambiguities in an agreement or other document will be construed against the Party drafting such agreement or document. Additionally, all communications involving attorney-client confidences between the Company and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and LeClairRyan, on the other hand, relating to the negotiation, documentation and consummation of the Transaction shall be deemed to be attorney-client confidences that belong solely to the Company and its Affiliates (and not the Purchasers). Accordingly, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the Transaction Documents, the Purchasers or their Affiliates shall not have access to any such communications or to the files of LeClairRyan relating to such engagement from and after the Closing Date. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, from and after the Closing Date, (a) the Company and its Affiliates (and not the Purchasers and their Affiliates) shall be the sole holders of the attorney-client privilege with respect to such engagement, and the Purchasers shall not be a holder thereof, (b) to the extent that files of LeClairRyan in respect of such engagement constitute property of the client, only the Company and its Affiliates (and not the Purchasers or its Affiliates) shall hold such property rights and (c) LeClairRyan shall have no duty whatsoever to reveal or disclose any such attorney-client communications or files to the Purchasers or any of its Affiliates by reason of any attorney-client relationship between LeClairRyan and the Purchasers or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a dispute arises between the Parties and a third party (other than a party to this Agreement or any of their respective Affiliates) after the Closing, the Purchasers (including on behalf of their Affiliates) may assert the attorney-client privilege to prevent disclosure of confidential communications by LeClairRyan to such third party; provided, however, that neither the Purchasers nor any of its Affiliates may waive such privilege without the prior written consent of the Company.
   
  Section 7.9 No Third-Party Beneficiary. Except as set forth herein, the terms and provisions of this Agreement are intended solely for the benefit of each Party hereto and their respective heirs, representatives, successors and assigns, and it is not the intention of the Parties to confer upon any other person or entity any rights or remedies.
   
  Section 7.10 Amendment; Waiver. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed by the Parties hereto. Any agreement on the part of a Party hereto to the waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such party.
   
  Section 7.11 Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction.
   
  (a) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Missouri and the federal law of the United States of America; without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule that would cause the application of the Legal Requirements of any other jurisdiction.
   
  	 
	40

	  

	 

   
  (b) EACH OF THE PURCHASERS AND THE COMPANY HERETO CONSENTS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT LOCATED WITHIN THE COUNTY OF WESTERN DISTRICT of MISSOURI IN THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY AND IRREVOCABLY AGREES THAT ALL ACTIONS OR PROCEEDINGS INVOLVING ONLY SUCH PARTIES RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY MAY BE LITIGATED ONLY IN SUCH COURTS. EACH OF THE PURCHASERS AND THE COMPANY HERETO ACCEPTS FOR ITSELF AND IN CONNECTION WITH ITS RESPECTIVE PROPERTIES, GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY, THE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS AND WAIVES ANY DEFENSE OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS, AND IRREVOCABLY AGREES TO BE BOUND BY ANY JUDGMENT RENDERED THEREBY IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTION. EACH OF THE PURCHASERS AND THE COMPANY HERETO IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE SERVICE OF PROCESS OUT OF ANY OF SUCH COURTS IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING BY THE MAILING OF COPIES THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL, POSTAGE PREPAID, TO SUCH PARTY AT THE ADDRESS SPECIFIED IN THIS AGREEMENT, SUCH SERVICE TO BECOME EFFECTIVE FIFTEEN (15) CALENDAR DAYS AFTER SUCH MAILING. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL IN ANY WAY BE DEEMED TO LIMIT THE ABILITY OF THE PURCHASERS OR THE COMPANY TO SERVE ANY SUCH LEGAL PROCESS, SUMMONS, NOTICES AND DOCUMENTS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.
   
  (c) In the event that any proceeding, suit or action is instituted to enforce any provision in this Agreement, the prevailing Party in such dispute shall be entitled to recover from the losing Party all fees, costs, and expenses of enforcing any right of such prevailing Party under or with respect to this Agreement, including, without limitation, such reasonable fees and expenses of attorneys and accountants, which shall include, without limitation, all fees, costs and expenses of appeals.
   
  Section 7.12 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one instrument, and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each party hereto and delivered to the other parties. This Agreement or any counterpart may be executed and delivered by facsimile copies or delivered by electronic communications by portable document format (.pdf), each of which shall be deemed an original.

Alternatively, Purchaser may allow Precision to pay for the Put Equity Percent in installments over a reasonable period of time to be mutually agreed upon (not to exceed thirty-six (36) months). If Precision fails to satisfy their obligations pursuant to this Section 4.10 Purchaser may pursue any and all rights and remedies at law or in equity.

  6.2 Consequences of Events of Default.
   
  (a) If any Event of Default has occurred, then the interest rate on the Notes and any Put Notes shall increase immediately by three percent (3.0%) per annum, so that, for instance, in the case of Note A, the interest rate from and after the applicable Event of Default shall be fourteen percent (14%) per annum and in the case of Note B, the interest rate from and after the applicable Event of Default shall be seventeen percent (17%) per annum (each, the “Default Rate”). Any increase of the interest rate resulting from the operation of this Section 6.2(a) shall terminate as of the close of business on the date on which no Events of Default exists (subject to subsequent increases pursuant to this Section 6.2(a). If any interest owed on the Notes or any Put Note is not paid as and when due, then Purchaser in its sole and absolute discretion may without notice (i) cause such unpaid interest to be capitalized and added to the outstanding principal balance of the Notes or Put Note, as applicable, or (ii) leave such unpaid interest to continue to accrue and remain due and owing. Any unpaid interest that Purchaser elects to capitalize and add to the outstanding principal balance of the applicable Note or applicable Put Note shall not cure any Event of Default.
   
  (b) If an Event of Default of the type described in Section 6.1(d) has occurred, then the outstanding principal amount of the Notes and any Put Notes (together with all accrued interest thereon and all other amounts due and payable with respect thereto) shall become immediately due and payable without any action on the part of the holders thereof, and any Issuer Party shall immediately pay to the holders of such notes all amounts due and payable with respect thereto.
   
  	 
	43

	  

	 

   
  (c) If an Event of Default (other than under Section 6.1(d)) has occurred and is continuing, then Purchaser or any other holder of the Notes or any Put Note may declare all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes and any Put Notes (together with all accrued interest thereon and all other amounts due and payable with respect thereto including any prepayment premium payable pursuant to the Notes) to be immediately due and payable and may demand immediate payment of all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes and any Put Notes (together with all such other amounts then due and payable including any prepayment premium payable pursuant to the applicable Note) owned by Purchaser or such other noteholders, and any Issuer Party shall immediately pay to such holder all amounts due and payable with respect thereto.
   
  (d) If an Event of Default of the type described in Section 6.1(a) has occurred, then Purchaser and any other holders of the Notes or Put Notes then outstanding may require the Issuer Party thereof to defer all payments to any Person who owns, directly or indirectly, any Equity Interests in such Issuer Party other than current compensation, excluding discretionary bonuses.
   
  (e) If an Event of Default has occurred, then Purchaser may enforce any and all other rights granted pursuant to the Investment Documents, including any proxy, security agreement or pledge agreement, to the extent permitted under the terms of such agreement.
   
  Section 7. Miscellaneous.
   
  7.1 Expenses. Issuer Parties shall pay Purchaser, on demand, all Administration and Enforcement Expenses (defined below) now or hereafter incurred by Purchaser, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate, from the date paid or incurred by Purchaser until such fees and expenses are paid by Issuer Parties, whether or not an Event of Default then exists. For the purpose of this Agreement, “Administration and Enforcement Expenses” shall mean all fees, costs, and expenses (including travel and related costs and expenses) incurred at any time or from time to time by Purchaser, including legal (whether for the purpose of advice, negotiation, documentation, recording, filing, registration, defense, enforcement or otherwise), accounting, financial advisory, auditing, rating agency, appraisal, valuation, title or title insurance, taxes (mortgage, documentary or otherwise), engineering, environmental, collection agency, or other expert or consulting or similar services, in connection with: (a) the issuance, sale, and purchase of the Securities, including the negotiation and preparation of this Agreement and the other Investment Documents and any amendments or modifications of the Securities or the other Investment Documents, whether or not consummated; (b) the administration, servicing or enforcement of the Securities or the other Investment Documents, including any request for interpretation or modification of the Investment Documents or any matter related to the Securities or the servicing thereof (which shall include the consideration of any requests for consents, waivers, modifications, approvals, lease reviews or similar matters and any proposed transfer of the Collateral or any interest therein), (c) any litigation, contest, dispute, suit, arbitration, mediation, proceeding or action (whether instituted by or against Purchaser, including actions brought by or on behalf of any Issuer Party or any guarantor or the bankruptcy estate of any Issuer Party, any guarantor, or other Person) in any way relating to the Securities or the other Investment Documents, including in connection with any bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, or receivership proceeding; (d) any attempt to enforce any rights of Purchaser against any Issuer Party or other Person that may be obligated to Purchaser by virtue of any Investment Document or otherwise whether or not litigation is commenced in pursuance of such rights; and (e) protection, enforcement against, or liquidation of the Collateral, including any attempt to inspect, verify, preserve, restore, collect, sell, liquidate or otherwise dispose of or realize upon the Securities or any Collateral, further including the cost of generation of any reports of such inspections and verifications, and further including any and all costs incurred in connection with such inspections and verifications, including the costs of travel, lodging, and all other related costs of Purchaser or its agents incurred in connection with the same. All Administration and Enforcement Expenses shall be additional Obligations secured by the Collateral, and may be funded, if Purchaser so elects, by Purchaser paying the same to the appropriate Persons and thus making an advance or additional loan on behalf of Issuer Parties. The provisions of this Section 7.1 shall not limit any other obligation of Issuer Parties under this Agreement to pay, reimburse or indemnify any Purchaser or holder for any amount, including their obligations under Section 4.2 and Section 6.2 of this Agreement.
   
  	 
	44

	  

	 

   
  7.2 Remedies. Each holder of Securities and any Put Notes shall have all rights and remedies set forth in the Investment Documents and the Governing Documents of Issuer Parties and all rights and remedies which such holders have been granted at any time under any other agreement or contract and all of the rights which such holders have under any Law. No remedy under this Agreement or any other Investment Document is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy, and each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given under this Agreement or thereunder or now or hereafter existing at Law or in equity or otherwise. Purchaser may enforce any of its rights under any provision of the Investment Documents without posting a bond or other security to recover damages by reason of any breach of any provision of the Investment Documents and to exercise all other rights granted by Law.
   
  7.3 Usury. In no contingency or event whatsoever will the aggregate of all amounts deemed interest owed by Issuer Parties under this Agreement, the Notes or any other Investment Documents and charged or collected pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other Investment Document that, under applicable Laws, are deemed to be interest, exceed the highest rate permissible under any Law that a court of competent jurisdiction, in a final determination, deems applicable. If such a court determines that Purchaser has charged or received interest under this Agreement or any other Investment Document in excess of the highest applicable rate, then Purchaser shall apply such excess to any other indebtedness or obligations then due and payable, whether for principal, interest, fees or otherwise, and shall refund the remainder of such excess interest, if any, to any Issuer Party, and such rate shall automatically be reduced to the maximum rate permitted by such Law.
   
  7.4 Purchaser’s Investment Representations. Purchaser by this Agreement represents and warrants that:
   
  (a) Authorization. When executed and delivered by Purchaser, and assuming execution and delivery by the Issuer Parties, this Agreement and the Investment Documents constitute their valid and legally binding obligations, enforceable in accordance with their terms.
   
  	 
	45

	  

	 

   
  (b) Investment Experience. Purchaser is an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act and has previously invested in securities of other small businesses and acknowledges that it is able to protect its interests, and bear the economic risk of its investment and has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in the restricted securities. Purchaser also represents it has not been organized for the purpose of acquiring the restricted securities. Purchaser understands that the Securities are subject to restrictions on resale under the Securities Act.
   
  7.5 Amendments and Waivers. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement, the Shareholder Agreement, and the Notes and any Put Note may not be amended or waived and Issuer Parties may not take any action that is prohibited under this Agreement, or omit to perform any act that is required to be performed by any of them under this Agreement, unless Issuer Parties have obtained the prior written consent of Purchaser. No other course of dealing between Issuer Parties and Purchaser or any delay in exercising any rights under this Agreement or under the Notes or any Put Note or the Governing Documents of Issuer Parties shall operate as waiver of any rights of Purchaser.
   
  7.6 Survival of Agreement. All covenants, representations and warranties contained in the Investment Documents or made in writing by Issuer Parties in connection with this Agreement or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery of the Investment Documents and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and thereby, regardless of any investigation made by Purchaser or on its behalf. In addition, the obligations of Issuer Parties pursuant to this Section 7 shall survive the payment or repayment, as applicable, of all amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement, the Notes, and the Shareholder Agreement.
   
  7.7 No Setoffs. All payments under this Agreement and under the Securities and any Put Notes shall be made by Issuer Parties without setoff, offset, deduction or counterclaim, free and clear of all Taxes, levies, imports, duties, fees, and charges, and without any withholding, restriction or conditions imposed by any Governmental Body (other than required tax withholdings). If Issuer Parties shall be required by any Law to deduct, setoff or withhold any amount from or in respect of any payment to Purchaser under this Agreement or under the Securities or any Put Notes, then the amount so payable to Purchaser shall be increased as may be necessary so that, after making all required deductions, setoffs, and withholdings, Purchaser shall receive an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions, setoffs or withholding been made (other than required tax withholdings).
   
  	 
	46

	  

	 

   
  7.8 Successors and Assigns. All covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto whether or not so expressed; provided, that Issuer Parties shall not be permitted to assign or delegate their rights or obligations under this Agreement, the Securities or any Put Notes, whether directly, pursuant to a merger or otherwise by operation of Law. Purchaser may assign, by sale, participation or otherwise any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, the Securities and any Put Notes to any Affiliate of Purchaser. In addition, with the prior consent of Issuer Parties, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, Purchaser may assign, by sale, participation or otherwise any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, the Securities and any Put Notes to any other private equity company or institutional investor as it may choose. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, nothing expressed in or implied from any Investment Document is intended to give, or shall be construed to give, any Person, other than the parties hereto and thereto and their permitted successors and assigns, any benefit or legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by virtue of this Agreement or any such other document. Any agreement or covenant in any Investment Document obligating the issuer of an Equity Interest held by Purchaser or subsequent holder to take any action or to refrain from taking any action shall similarly obligate any other Person into or with which such issuer is merged, consolidated, combined or reorganized.
   
  7.9 Aggregation. For purposes of the Investment Documents, all holdings of Securities and any Put Notes by Persons who are Affiliates of each other shall be aggregated for purposes of meeting any threshold tests under the Investment Documents.
   
  7.10 Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable Law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable Law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of this Agreement and shall be reformed and enforced to the maximum extent permitted under applicable Law.
   
  7.11 Counterparts. For the purpose of facilitating the execution of this Agreement and for other purposes, this Agreement may be executed simultaneously in any number of counterparts, each of which counterparts shall be deemed to be an original, and such counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument. A signature of a party by facsimile or other electronic transmission (including a .pdf copy sent by e-mail) shall be deemed to constitute an original and fully effective signature of such party.
   
  7.12 Descriptive Headings. The descriptive headings of this Agreement and the other Investment Documents are inserted for convenience only and do not constitute a substantive part of such document or instrument.
   
  7.13 Governing Law. All issues and questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement, and interpretation of this Agreement and the Schedules to this Agreement and (except as otherwise expressly provided therein) the Exhibits to this Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of Missouri, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules or provisions (whether of the State of Missouri or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the Laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Missouri. In furtherance of the foregoing, the internal Laws of the State of Missouri shall control the interpretation and construction of this Agreement (and all schedules and exhibits to this Agreement), even though under that jurisdiction’s choice of law or conflict of law analysis, the substantive law of some other jurisdiction would ordinarily apply.

  7.15 Construction. The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. If 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. The parties intend that each representation, warranty, and covenant contained in this Agreement shall have independent significance. If any party has breached any representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement in any respect or any Event of Default shall occur, the fact that there exists another representation, warranty or covenant or Event of Default relating to the same subject matter (regardless of the relative levels of specificity) which such party has not breached shall not detract from or mitigate the fact that such party is in breach of the first representation, warranty or covenant or that the first Event of Default shall have occurred.

  (b) Conflicts. If there is a conflict between or among the terms, covenants, conditions or provisions of this Agreement and the other Investment Documents, then any term, covenant, condition or provision that Purchaser may elect to enforce from time to time so as to enlarge the interest of Purchaser in its security for the payment and performance of the Obligations, afford Purchaser the maximum financial benefits or security for the Obligations, or provide Purchaser the maximum assurance of payment and performance of the Obligations in full, shall control. EACH ISSUER PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT IT HAS BEEN PROVIDED WITH SUFFICIENT AND NECESSARY TIME AND OPPORTUNITY TO REVIEW THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT AND EACH OF THE INVESTMENT DOCUMENTS WITH ANY AND ALL COUNSEL IT DEEMS APPROPRIATE, AND THAT NO INFERENCE IN FAVOR OF, OR AGAINST, PURCHASER OR ISSUER PARTIES SHALL BE DRAWN FROM THE FACT THAT ANY SUCH PARTY HAS DRAFTED ANY PORTION OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE INVESTMENT DOCUMENTS.
