The Purchaser shall deliver the Proposed Closing Statement to the Seller Representative within ninety (90) calendar days after the Closing Date. The Purchaser shall prepare the Proposed Closing Statement in accordance with the Accounting Principles.

(b) The Proposed Closing Statement shall become binding upon the Parties at 5:00 P.M. New York time on the thirtieth (30th) calendar day following delivery thereof (and shall be deemed the Final Closing Statement, and the determination contained therein shall be binding) unless the Seller Representative gives written notice of Seller Representative’s disagreement with the Proposed Closing Statement (a Notice of Disagreement) to the Purchaser prior to the expiration of

such thirty (30) calendar day period. Any Notice of Disagreement shall specify those items or amounts with which the Seller Representative disagrees in the Proposed Closing Statement and contain (i) a reasonably detailed description of the reasons for its objections to each such item or amount contained therein and (ii) the Seller Representative’s calculation of any amounts with which the Seller Representative disagrees in the Proposed Closing Statement, prepared in accordance with the Accounting Principles. Items not disputed in the Notice of Disagreement shall be binding upon the Parties.

(i) During the ten (10) Business Day period following the delivery of a Notice of Disagreement (or such longer period as may be agreed in writing by the Seller Representative and the Purchaser) (such period, the Resolution Period) the Seller Representative and the Purchaser shall first seek in good faith to resolve such objections. If such objections are so resolved they shall be deemed binding as so resolved and, at such time, the Proposed Closing Statement, as modified to reflect such resolution, shall be deemed the Final Closing Statement.

(ii) If the Seller Representative and the Purchaser do not resolve all of such objections during the Resolution Period, the Seller Representative, on the one hand, and the Purchaser, on the other hand, shall make a written submission to the Accounting Firm (and substantially simultaneously to the other) for determination of any and all matters that remain in dispute (the Unresolved Objections) (all matters previously resolved shall become part of the Final Closing Statement as resolved) and which were included in the Notice of Disagreement; provided that the scope of the Unresolved Objections to be resolved by the Accounting Firm shall be limited to whether there were mathematical errors in the Proposed Closing Statement and whether the calculations of the Closing Date Indebtedness, Closing Date Cash and Closing Date Net Working Capital were accurate and performed in accordance with the applicable Accounting Principles, and the Accounting Firm shall not make any other determination. Within five (5) Business Days after the expiration of such ten (10) Business Day period, each of the Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Seller Representative, on the other hand, may deliver to the Accounting Firm its response to the other’s position on each Unresolved Objection; provided that each delivers a copy thereof substantially simultaneously to the other. The Accounting Firm’s decision with respect to any Unresolved Objection must be within the range of values assigned to each such item in the Proposed Closing Statement and the Notice of Disagreement, respectively.

(iii) Except as set forth in Section 2.04(c)(ii), the Seller Representative and the Purchaser shall not be entitled to make submissions except as specifically

requested by the Accounting Firm. The Seller Representative and the Purchaser shall provide, as soon as reasonably practicable, all the information and explanations that the Accounting Firm may reasonably require. The precise timetable shall be as agreed with the Accounting Firm, but the Accounting Firm shall be instructed to render its determination regarding only the Unresolved Objections in accordance with Section 2.04(c)(ii) within thirty (30) Business Days following the date of such submissions.

(iv) The resolution by the Accounting Firm of the Unresolved Objections shall, absent manifest error, be binding and at such time, the Proposed Closing Statement, as modified to reflect such resolution (and any matters resolved in accordance with Section 2.04(c)(i)), shall be deemed the Final Closing Statement. The Parties agree that the procedure set forth in this Section 2.04 for resolving disputes with respect to the Proposed Closing Statement shall be the exclusive method for resolving any disputes with respect to Closing Date Indebtedness, Closing Date Cash and Closing Date Net Working Capital. The decision of the Accounting Firm shall constitute an arbitral award that is final, binding and non-appealable and upon which a judgment may be entered by a court having jurisdiction thereover.

(v) The fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be borne by the Sellers, on the one hand, and the Purchaser, on the other hand, based on the following formula:

(A) The Sellers shall pay a portion of such fees and expenses equal to that fraction of such fees and expenses where (1) the numerator is the absolute value of the difference between Sellers’ aggregate position with respect to the Closing Date Indebtedness, Closing Date Cash and Closing Date Net Working Capital and such amounts as recalculated based upon the Accounting Firm’s final determination with respect to the Unresolved Objections and (2) the denominator is the absolute value of the difference between Sellers’ aggregate position with respect to the Closing Date Indebtedness, Closing Date Cash and Closing Date Net Working Capital and Purchaser’s aggregate position with respect to such amounts; and

(B) The Purchaser shall pay the remainder of such fees and expenses.

(d) No later than five (5) Business Days after the Proposed Closing Statement is deemed the Final Closing Statement pursuant to this Section 2.04:

(i) if Closing Date Indebtedness is: (A) less than Estimated Closing Date Indebtedness, the Purchaser shall deliver to the Sellers payment of the amount of such deficit; or (B) greater than the Estimated Closing Date

Indebtedness, the payment of the amount of such excess shall be made to the Purchaser from the Escrow Amount in the Escrow Account;

(ii) if Closing Date Cash is: (A) less than Estimated Closing Date Cash, payment of the amount of such deficit shall be made to the Purchaser from the Escrow Amount in the Escrow Agreement; or (B) greater than Estimated Closing Date Cash, the Purchaser shall deliver to the Sellers payment of the amount of such excess; and

(iii) if Closing Date Net Working Capital is: (A) less than Estimated Closing Date Net Working Capital, payment of the amount of such deficit shall be made to the Purchaser from the Escrow Amount in the Escrow Account; or (B) greater than Estimated Closing Date Net Working Capital, the Purchaser shall deliver to the Sellers payment of the amount of such excess.

Any payments made by the Purchaser pursuant to this Section 2.04(d) shall be made by wire transfer from immediately available funds to a bank account designated in writing by the Sellers (such designation to be made at least three (3) Business Days prior to such payment). In respect of any payment required to be made from the Escrow Account pursuant to this Section 2.04(d), the Seller Representative shall, together with the Purchaser, jointly instruct the Escrow Agent to remit such payment to the Purchaser not later than five (5) Business Days after the Proposed Closing Statement is deemed the Final Closing Statement pursuant to this Section 2.04(d). To the extent that the amount required to be paid to the Purchaser pursuant to this Section 2.04(d) exceeds the Escrow Amount, the Sellers shall pay such excess to the Purchaser not later than five (5) Business Days after the Proposed Closing Statement is deemed the Final Closing Statement pursuant to this Section 2.04(d). The Parties shall net the payments, if any, to be made pursuant to Section 2.04(d)(i), (ii) and (iii), such that only one Party is required to deliver or cause to be delivered amounts required to be paid under this Section 2.04(d). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Party shall be required to make any payment pursuant to this Section 2.04(d) unless the amount of the adjustment calculated hereunder be paid by one Party to the other Party exceeds $400,000.00.

(e) Until the date the Proposed Closing Statement is deemed the Final Closing Statement pursuant to this Section 2.04, the Parties agree that following the Closing, each shall provide and cause to be provided to the other and its respective representatives reasonable access upon reasonable notice during normal business hours to such first Party’s books, records and accounting personnel (including books, records and accounting personnel of the Target Group Companies), and shall cause such personnel to reasonably cooperate with the other Party and respond to such Party’s reasonable requests for information reasonably promptly.

(ii) a breach of, or failure to timely and duly perform, any covenant or agreement to be performed by the Sellers contained in this Agreement (other than the covenants and agreements contained in Section 6.03(a), (b) and (c) and Section 6.07, to which this Section 10.02(b)(ii) shall not apply);

(iii) the matters set forth on Schedule 10.02(b)(iii);

(i) a breach of any representation or warranty made by the Purchaser in Part I or Part II of Article V; or

(ii) a breach of, or failure to timely and duly perform, any covenant or agreement to be performed by the Purchaser contained in this Agreement.

10.03 Limitations on Indemnification Obligations

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement (but except as set forth in the proviso in this Section 10.03):

(a) no Purchaser Indemnitee shall be entitled to recover under Section 10.02(a)(i) or Section 10.02(b)(i) unless and until the aggregate amount of Losses (after giving effect to the De Minimis Threshold) suffered by Purchaser Indemnitees thereunder exceeds one percent (1%) of the Cash Consideration (the Deductible), whereupon such Purchaser Indemnitee shall be entitled to recover only such Losses in excess of the Deductible;

(b) no Purchaser Indemnitee shall be entitled to recover under Section 10.02(a)(i) or Section 10.02(b)(i) with respect to any single claim or series of related claims unless and until the amount of Losses suffered by such Purchaser Indemnitee in respect of such claim or series of related claims exceeds $50,000 (the De Minimis Threshold); and

(c) the Sellers’ maximum aggregate liability pursuant to Section 10.02(a)(i) and Section 10.02(b)(i) shall not exceed an amount equal to five percent (5%) of the Cash Consideration (the Cap);

provided that the limitations in clauses (a), (b) and (c) above shall not apply with respect to any claim for indemnification under Article VII or in respect of Losses to the extent arising from a breach of a Fundamental Representation or Fraud on the part of any Seller, and in such event, other than with respect to the Fundamental Representations contained in Article III for which each Seller shall be severally, and not jointly, liable for the full amount of such Losses, the Sellers shall be jointly and severally liable to the Purchaser Indemnitees for the full amount of such Losses. Notwithstanding the foregoing and anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, (1) each Seller’s maximum aggregate liability pursuant to Section 10.02(a) and (b) shall not exceed the portion of the Cash Consideration actually received by such Seller; and (2) the Sellers’ combined maximum aggregate liability under this Agreement shall not exceed an amount equal to the Cash Consideration plus the value of the Consideration Shares (calculated in accordance with Section 2.01(d)).

10.04 Third Party Claims; Notice of Direct Claims

(a) In order for a Person to be entitled to any indemnification provided for under this Agreement (such Person entitled to indemnification hereunder, an Indemnified Party; and a Party against whom indemnification is sought hereunder, an Indemnifying Party), in respect of, arising out of or involving a claim made by any Person (other than a Party hereto) against an Indemnified Party (a Third Party

Claim), such Indemnified Party shall provide written notice to the Indemnifying Party (such notice to include a description of the nature of the Third Party Claim, a good faith estimate of the Losses associated therewith and copies of all written notices and documents (including any court papers) received by such Indemnified Party relating to the Third Party Claim) during the applicable survival period in Section 10.01 and within ten (10) Business Days after receipt by such Indemnified Party of written notice of the Third Party Claim; provided that failure to give such prompt notice shall not affect the right to indemnification provided hereunder except to the extent the Indemnifying Party shall have been prejudiced as a result of such failure.

(b) Except as set forth in this Section 10.04, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled (at its election) to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim within ten (10) Business Days after receiving the notice specified in Section 10.04(a) with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party that is reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party; provided that (i) the Indemnifying Party may only assume control of such defense if (A) it acknowledges in writing to the Indemnified Party that any damages, fines, costs or other liabilities that may be assessed against the Indemnified Party in connection with such Third Party Claim constitute Losses for which the Indemnified Party may be indemnified pursuant to this Article X and (B) an adverse resolution of the Third Party Claim would not have a material adverse effect on the goodwill or reputation of the Indemnified Party or the business, operations or future conduct of the Indemnified Party, and (ii) the Indemnifying Party may not assume control of the defense of any Third Party Claim involving any Governmental Authority or criminal liability or in which equitable relief is sought against the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party does not, or is not permitted under the terms hereof to, assume control of the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall control such defense. If the Indemnifying Party assumes such defense, the Indemnified Party shall nonetheless have the right to employ counsel separate from the counsel employed by the Indemnifying Party; provided that the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to such Indemnified Party for any fees of such separate counsel with respect to the defense of such Third Party Claim, unless, in the reasonable opinion of the Indemnifying Party’s legal counsel, a conflict of interest exists between such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party that would make such separate representation advisable. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume such defense, and for any period during which the Indemnifying Party has not assumed such defense, the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of one single counsel employed by such Indemnified Party (which reasonable fees and expenses shall be considered Losses for purposes of this Agreement). If the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend a Third Party Claim or prosecute a claim in connection therewith, each Indemnified Party shall provide all reasonable cooperation in such defense or prosecution.

(c) If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may not settle, compromise or discharge such Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, unless (i) the Indemnifying Party agrees in writing to pay or cause to be paid all amounts arising out of such proposed settlement, and (ii) the proposed settlement (A) does not include an admission of wrongdoing by the Indemnified Party, (B) includes a complete release of the Indemnified Party from further Liability, and (C) does not impose any injunctive relief or other equitable obligations on the Indemnified Party.

(d) In the event a Seller Indemnitee has a claim against the Purchaser or Parent (as applicable) under Section 10.02 that does not involve a Third Party Claim, such Seller Indemnitee shall deliver written notice of such claim to the Purchaser or Parent (as applicable) stating the amount of the Loss, if known, and method of computation thereof, and containing a reference to the provisions of this Agreement in respect of which such right of indemnification is claimed or arises, during the applicable survival period in Section 10.01 and within twenty (20) Business Days of becoming aware of the facts or circumstances giving rise to such claim; provided that failure to give such notice shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except to the extent the Purchaser or Parent (as applicable) shall have been prejudiced as a result of such failure. The Seller Indemnitee and the Purchaser or Parent (as applicable) shall, for a period of not less than twenty (20) Business Days following receipt by the Purchaser or Parent (as applicable) of the notice of such claim, negotiate in good faith to resolve the claim, and such Seller Indemnitee shall not commence Proceedings with respect to such claim prior to the end of such period.

(e) In the event a Purchaser Indemnitee has a claim against one or more Sellers under Section 10.02 that does not involve a Third Party Claim, such Purchaser Indemnitee shall deliver written notice of such claim to such Seller(s) stating the amount of the Loss, if known, and method of computation thereof, and containing a reference to the provisions of this Agreement in respect of which such right of indemnification is claimed or arises, during the applicable survival period in Section 10.01 and within twenty (20) Business Days of becoming aware of the facts or circumstances giving rise to such claim; provided that failure to give such notice shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except to the extent such Seller(s) shall have been prejudiced as a result of such failure. The Purchaser Indemnitee and the Seller(s) shall, for a period of not less than twenty (20) Business Days following receipt by such Seller(s) of the notice of such claim, negotiate in good faith to resolve the claim, and such Purchaser Indemnitee shall not commence Proceedings with respect to such claim prior to the end of such period.

10.05 Representations and Warranties Insurance Policy

(a) The Purchaser has purchased for its benefit a representations and warranties insurance policy (the R&W Insurance Policy), and except as otherwise set forth in this Article X, the R&W Insurance Policy shall provide Purchaser’s sole and exclusive recourse with respect to Losses suffered or incurred from claims of breaches of representations and warranties arising under this Agreement. All premiums and underwriting and due diligence fees for the R&W Insurance Policy shall be borne by the Purchaser.

(b) The Purchaser shall cause the R&W Insurance Policy to provide that the insurer with respect to such R&W Insurance Policy will not, other than in instances of Fraud by the Sellers, be entitled to subrogation or assignment of rights of recovery against the Sellers, and the Purchaser shall not cause or permit the R&W Insurance Policy to be amended or modified such that the insurer with respect to such R&W Insurance Policy would be entitled to subrogation or assignment of rights of recovery against the Sellers, other than in instances of Fraud. The Purchaser shall not subrogate or assign rights of recovery against the Sellers to such insurer and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such insurer to waive all rights of recovery from or subrogation against the Sellers, other than in instances of Fraud by the Sellers. The R&W Insurance Policy shall be specifically endorsed to provide such waiver.

10.06 Double Recovery

No Indemnified Party shall be entitled to recover any amount pursuant to any provision of this Agreement in respect of any claim to the extent that such Indemnified Party has already recovered any amount in respect of such claim.

10.07 Recovery; Other Limitations

(a) In the event that any Purchaser Indemnitee sustains or incurs Losses for which the Sellers are obligated to indemnify such Purchaser Indemnitee pursuant to Section 10.02(b) (except with respect to breaches of Fundamental Representations), the payments of Sellers to such Purchaser Indemnitee shall be made (and the Purchaser Indemnitee shall only recover such payments as set forth under this Article X) as follows:

(i) First, subject in every respect to the limitations contained in this Article X, from the Escrow Account pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement until such Losses are paid in full or until the Escrow Amount (and all income earned thereon) is extinguished; and

(ii) then, directly from the Sellers in accordance with the terms of, and subject in every respect to the limitations contained in, this Article X.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, after the one (1) year anniversary of the Closing Date, Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy under Section 10.02(b)(i) (other than with respect to breaches of the Fundamental Representations and the representations contained in Sections 4.13 and 4.15) shall be against the R&W Insurance Policy.

(b) Losses suffered by a Party in connection with any claim hereunder shall be limited to the amount of any liability or damage that remains after deducting therefrom any insurance proceeds and any indemnity, contribution, or other similar payment actually received by any Party in respect of any such claim.

(c) Each Party acknowledges and agrees that, from and after the Closing (except as provided in Section 6.05(b), Article VII and Section 11.13), its sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all Losses relating to this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby, the Target Group Companies, the Business, and/or the personal or real property of the Target Group Companies shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article X.

11.02 Assignment

This Agreement and the rights and obligations hereunder may not be assigned, delegated or otherwise transferred by any Party without the prior written consent of the other Parties; provided that the Purchaser may assign its rights to purchase the Units pursuant to this Agreement to an Affiliate of the Purchaser; provided, further, however, that the

Purchaser shall nevertheless remain responsible for its obligations hereunder. Any attempted assignment in violation of this Section 11.02 shall be null and void and of no effect.

11.06 Counterpart Execution and Facsimile Delivery

This Agreement may be executed and delivered (including by facsimile or portable document format (PDF) transmission) in any number of 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 instrument.

11.07 Entire Agreement

This Agreement and all exhibits, annexes and schedules hereto (including the Sellers Disclosure Schedule and any schedule or annex thereto) and the Confidentiality Agreement (and any schedules or annexes thereto), contain the entire agreement and understanding among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings (whether oral or written) relating to such subject matter. None of the Parties shall be liable or bound to any other Party in any manner by any representations, warranties or covenants relating to such subject matter except as specifically set forth herein or therein.

11.08 Severability

If any provision of this Agreement (or any portion thereof) or the application of any such provision (or any portion thereof) to any Person or circumstance shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision hereof (or the remaining portion thereof) or the application of such provision to any other Persons or circumstances.

11.09 Governing Law

This Agreement and all Proceedings (whether based on contract, tort or otherwise) arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the actions of the Sellers, the Purchaser, Parent or the Target Group Companies in the negotiation, administration, performance and enforcement thereof, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Applicable Law of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice or conflict of laws provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the Applicable Law or any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware.

11.10 Consent to Jurisdiction

(a) Each of the Parties hereby, with respect to any legal claim or Proceeding arising out of this Agreement or the other transactions contemplated hereby, (i) expressly and irrevocably submits, for itself and with respect to its property, generally and unconditionally, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Delaware Court of Chancery and any appellate court therefrom within the State of Delaware (or, if the Delaware Court of Chancery declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any state or federal court within the State of Delaware), (ii) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such courts, (iii) agrees that it will not bring any claim or Proceeding relating to this Agreement or the other transactions contemplated hereby except in such courts and (iv) waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion or as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to

the laying of venue of any claim or Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of the Sellers, the Purchaser and the Target Company agrees that a final and nonappealable judgment in any Proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Applicable Law.

(b) Each Party irrevocably consents to the service of process in any claim or Proceeding with respect to this Agreement or the other transactions contemplated hereby or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect hereof brought by any other Party may be made by mailing copies thereof by registered or certified United States mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, to its address as specified in or pursuant to Section 11.05 and such service of process shall be sufficient to confer personal jurisdiction over such Party in such claim or Proceeding and shall otherwise constitute effective and binding service in every respect.

11.11 Waiver of Jury Trial

EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY: (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER; AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTY HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 11.11.

11.12 Appointment of Seller Representative

(a) Each Seller hereby irrevocably appoints the Seller Representative as its sole, exclusive, true and lawful representative and attorney-in-fact, agent and proxy, with full power of substitution to act in its name, place and stead for all purposes under, and in respect of all transactions contemplated by, this Agreement, including, (i) consummating the Acquisition, (ii) paying all expenses (whether incurred on or after the date hereof) incurred in connection with the negotiation and performance of this Agreement, (iii) accepting and disbursing any funds received hereunder to such Seller and each other Seller, (iv) on behalf of each Seller, determining the satisfaction of, or otherwise waiving, any closing condition contained in Article VIII, and giving or agreeing to, on behalf of such Seller, any and all consents, waivers, amendments, or modifications, deemed by the Seller Representative, in its sole discretion, to be necessary or appropriate,

under this Agreement, and, in each case, executing and delivering any documents that may be necessary or appropriate in connection therewith, and to effect the Closing on behalf of Sellers, (v) negotiating, settling, compromising and otherwise handling any claims for indemnification or other claims made pursuant this Agreement to the extent that each of the Sellers is equally affected (on a pro rata basis) with respect to such claims for indemnification, and (vi) generally doing each and every other act and exercise any and all other rights which such Seller is, or Sellers collectively are, permitted or required to do or exercise under this Agreement. In addition, if one or more of the Sellers are an Indemnifying Party with respect to a Third Party Claim, then Purchaser and each of the Sellers hereby agree that the Seller Representative shall have the authorization, power and authority to take any and all action and to make and agree to any agreement for all such Sellers with respect to such Third Party Claim and that such determination shall be binding upon such Sellers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any of the agreements, conveyances, documents, instruments and certificates delivered at the Closing pursuant to this Agreement, each Seller hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Seller Representative and any Affiliate of the Seller Representative with respect to any claim asserted against or damages incurred by or on behalf of the Seller Representative or such Affiliate of the Seller Representative as a result of the Seller Representative carrying out his, her or its duties and obligations as the Seller Representative as contemplated by this Agreement.

(b) The Seller Representative and each other Seller shall be and are bound by all decisions, actions, inactions, consents or instructions taken by the Seller Representative pursuant to this Section 11.12 on behalf of the Sellers. The Seller Representative will not be liable to any Seller for any act taken or omitted by it as permitted under this Agreement, except if taken or omitted in bad faith or by willful misconduct. The Seller Representative will also be fully protected in relying upon any written notice, demand, certificate or document that it in good faith believes to be genuine (including facsimiles thereof).

(c) The Sellers understand and agree that the Seller Representative may have various actual, perceived or potential conflicts of interest and hereby waive and agree to waive any and all such conflicts of interest, not to assert any claim on the basis thereof, and not to seek to disqualify the Seller Representative due to any and all such conflicts of interest or potential conflicts of interest or appearances of impropriety.

(d) None of the Purchaser, Parent or any of their Affiliates (including, from and after the Closing, the Target Group Companies) shall have any Liability to any of Sellers or the Seller Representative arising out of the acts or omissions of the Seller Representative or any disputes among Sellers or any other Person who may own (or who may purport to own) an interest in a Seller or between Sellers and the Seller Representative. From and after the Closing, to the extent that the Purchaser or Parent or any of their Affiliates (including, from and after the

Closing, any Target Group Company) makes any payment hereunder to the Seller Representative, such payment shall be deemed to satisfy in full the payor’s obligations in respect of the amount of the payment made by such payor (subject to delivery of the payment in accordance with the terms of this Agreement), it being agreed and understood that such applicable Sellers and their respective Affiliates shall have no recourse, nor shall they be permitted to pursue any claim, against the Purchaser, Parent any of their Affiliates (including, from and after the Closing, any Target Group Company) in respect of the amount of the payment made by the payor (whether such payment was not paid over by the Seller Representative or for any other reason).

11.13 Specific Performance

Each Party agrees that irreparable damage may occur if any provision of this Agreement is not performed in accordance with its terms, and the Parties shall be entitled (without the requirement to post a bond) to seek specific performance of the terms hereof.
