Exemption from Liability Under Section 16(b) Home and Cascade agree that, in order to most effectively compensate and retain Home Insiders, both prior to and after the Effective Time, it is desirable that Home Insiders not be subject to a risk of liability under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law in connection with the conversion of shares of Home Common Stock into shares of Cascade Common Stock in the Merger, and for that compensatory and retentive purposes agree to the provisions of this Section 6.7. Assuming Home delivers to Cascade in a reasonably timely fashion prior to the Effective Time accurate information regarding those officers and directors of Home subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act (the “Home Insiders”), the Board of Directors of Cascade and of Home, or a committee of non-employee directors thereof (as such term is defined for purposes of Rule 16b-3(d) under the Exchange Act), shall reasonably promptly thereafter, and in any event prior to the Effective Time, take all such steps as may be required to cause any dispositions of Home Common Stock and Restricted Shares by the Home Insiders, and any acquisitions of Cascade Common Stock, or the stock issued pursuant to Section 1.4, by any Home Insiders who, immediately following the Merger, will be officers or directors of the Surviving Company subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, in each case pursuant to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, to be exempt from liability pursuant to Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

Compliance with Internal Revenue Code Section 409A The Employer and the Executive intend that their exercise of authority or discretion under this Agreement shall comply with section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. If when the Executive’s employment terminates the Executive is a specified employee, as defined in section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, and if any payments under this Agreement, including Articles 4 or 5, will result in additional tax or interest to the Executive because of section 409A, then despite any provision of this Agreement to the contrary the Executive shall not be entitled to the payments until the earliest of (x) the date that is at least six months after termination of the Executive’s employment for reasons other than the Executive’s death, (y) the date of the Executive’s death, or (z) any earlier date that does not result in additional tax or interest to the Executive under section 409A. As promptly as possible after the end of the period during which payments are delayed under this provision, the entire amount of the delayed payments shall be paid to the Executive in a single lump sum. If any provision of this Agreement does not satisfy the requirements of section 409A, the provision shall be applied in a manner consistent with those requirements despite any contrary provision of this Agreement. If any provision of this Agreement would subject the Executive to additional tax or interest under section 409A, the Employer shall reform the provision. However, the Employer shall maintain to the maximum extent practicable the original intent of the applicable provision without subjecting the Executive to additional tax or interest, and the Employer shall not be required to incur any additional compensation expense as a result of the reformed provision.
