After the Closing and subject to the other terms and conditions of this Article VIII, the Seller shall indemnify the Buyer against, and shall hold the Buyer harmless from and against, any and all Losses incurred or sustained by, or imposed upon, the Buyer based upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason of:

(a)any Fraud on the part of the Seller; or

(b)any breach or non-fulfillment of any covenant, agreement or obligation to be performed by the Seller pursuant to this Agreement.

8.2Indemnification by the Buyer. After the Closing and subject to the other terms and conditions of this Article VIII, the Buyer and Parent, jointly and severally, shall indemnify the Seller against, and shall hold the Seller harmless from and against, any and all Losses incurred or sustained by, or imposed upon, the Seller based upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason of:

(a)any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations or warranties of the Buyer and Parent contained in Article V of this Agreement; or

(b)any breach or non-fulfillment of any covenant, agreement or obligation to be performed by the Buyer or Parent pursuant to this Agreement.

8.3Survival and Time Limitations. All representations and warranties, covenants and agreements of the Buyer, Parent, KAI, the Company and the Seller, individually and collectively, in this Agreement will survive the Closing and shall remain in full force and effect until the date that is 12 months from the Closing Date, or such shorter time period as may be set forth in a particular representation, warranty or covenant. No Party will have any Liability under Section 8.1 or otherwise with respect to any Losses or claim by another Party or any Person claiming through or on behalf of such Party for any breach or inaccuracy of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement in this Agreement or any other certificate or document delivered pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise unless the Party making a claim notifies the Party against whom such claims are being asserted in writing of such a claim on or before the date that is 12 months from the Closing.

8.4Limitations on Indemnification.

(a)No Party shall have any Liability with respect to the matters described in this Article VIII until the total of all Losses with respect to such matters exceeds $50,000 (the "Basket"), at which point such Party shall be obligated to indemnify for only Losses exceeding the Basket, subject to the Indemnification Cap.

(b)The Seller and his executors or heirs, collectively, shall not be liable to the Buyer, Parent, KAI, the Company or any Person claiming through, on behalf or for the benefit of the Buyer, Parent, KAI or the Company under this Article VIII or otherwise for any Losses, in the aggregate, exceeding the lesser of: (i) the Share Proceeds; or (ii) Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) (the "Indemnification Cap").

(c)Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any Losses under this Article VIII or otherwise that the Seller may be liable for shall be paid or satisfied exclusively with or from the Share Proceeds, subject to the Indemnification Cap.

(d)The Seller shall not be liable under this Article VIII or otherwise for any Losses based upon or arising out of any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations or warranties of the Seller, KAI or the Company contained in this Agreement if the Buyer, Parent or their respective Representatives had Knowledge of such inaccuracy or breach prior to the Closing, or such inaccuracy or breach, or information regarding or relating thereto, was discoverable with minimal inquiry or effort during due diligence by the Buyer or Parent prior to the Closing.

(e)Losses payable by the Buyer or the Seller under this Article VIII shall not include indirect, consequential or other speculative damages, punitive damages, damages related to mental or emotional distress, exemplary damages, special damages or damages calculated as a multiple of earnings.

8.5Claims Against KAI. Following the Closing, the Seller may not assert, directly or indirectly, and hereby waives, any claim, whether for indemnification, contribution, subrogation or otherwise, against KAI with respect to any act, omission, condition or event occurring or existing prior to or on the Closing Date or any obligation of the Seller under Section 8.1. The Seller agrees not to make, directly or indirectly, and hereby waives, any claim for indemnification against KAI by reason of the fact that the Seller was a manager or a member of KAI (whether such claim is for judgments, damages, penalties, fines, costs, amounts paid in settlement, Losses, expenses or otherwise and whether such claim is pursuant to any Law, Organizational Document, Contract or otherwise) with respect to any Proceeding brought by the Buyer or KAI against the Seller or any Affiliate thereof pursuant to this Agreement with respect to any act, omission, condition or event occurring prior to the Closing Date.

8.6Third-Party Claims.

(a)If a third party commences or threatens a Proceeding (a "Third-Party Claim") against any Person (the "Indemnified Party") with respect to any matter that the Indemnified Party might make a claim for indemnification against any Party (the "Indemnifying Party") under this Article VIII, then the Indemnified Party must notify the Indemnifying Party (or the Seller, in the case of the Seller) thereof in writing of the existence of such Third-Party Claim and must deliver copies of any documents served on the Indemnified Party with respect to the Third-Party Claim; provided, however, that any failure to notify the Indemnifying Party or deliver copies will not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligation hereunder unless (and then solely to the extent) the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure.

(c)So long as the Indemnifying Party is conducting the defense of the Third-Party Claim in accordance with Section 8.6(b): (i) the Indemnifying Party will not be responsible for any attorneys' fees incurred by the Indemnified Party regarding the Third-Party Claim (other than reasonable attorneys' fees incurred prior to the Indemnifying Party's assumption of the defense pursuant to Section 8.6(b)); and (ii) neither the Indemnified Party nor the Indemnifying Party will consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the other party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. If the Indemnified Party desires to consent to the entry of judgment with respect to or settle a Third-Party

Claim but the Indemnifying Party refuses, then the Indemnifying Party will be responsible for all Losses with respect to such Third-Party Claim, without giving effect to the Basket or the Indemnification Cap.

(d)If any condition in Section 8.6(b) is or becomes unsatisfied: (i) the Indemnified Party may defend against, and consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to, the Third-Party Claim in any manner it may deem appropriate (and the Indemnified Party need not consult with, or obtain any consent from, the Indemnifying Party in connection therewith); (ii) the Indemnifying Party will reimburse the Indemnified Party promptly and periodically (but no less often than monthly) for the costs of defending against the Third-Party Claim, including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses; and (iii) the Indemnifying Party will remain responsible for any Losses the Indemnified Party may incur relating to or arising out of the Third-Party Claim to the fullest extent provided in this Article VIII.

8.7Other Indemnification Matters. Any claim for indemnification under this Article VIII must be asserted by providing written notice, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 8.3, to the Seller (or the Buyer, in the case of a claim by the Seller) specifying the factual basis of the claim in reasonable detail to the extent then known by the Person asserting the claim. The waiver of any condition based on the accuracy of any representation or warranty, or on the performance of or compliance with any covenant or agreement, will not affect the right to indemnification, payment of damages, or other remedy based on any such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement.

8.8Exclusive Remedy. Subject to Section 10.13, the Parties acknowledge and agree that their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims: (a) arising from Fraud on the part of a Party in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; or (b) for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article VIII. In furtherance of the foregoing, except with respect to Section 10.13, each Party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted under Law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement it may have against the other Parties hereto and their Affiliates and each of their respective Representatives arising under or based upon any Law, except pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article VIII. Nothing in this Section 8.8 shall limit any Person's right to seek and obtain any equitable relief to which any Person shall be entitled pursuant to Section 10.13.

ARTICLE IX

TAX MATTERS

The following provisions will govern the allocation of responsibility as between the Buyer and the Seller for certain Tax matters following the Closing Date:

9.1Tax Indemnification.

(a)The Seller shall pay and reimburse (to the extent not already paid) and indemnify KAI, the Buyer and its Affiliates and hold them harmless from and against Losses resulting from or attributable to all Taxes (or the non-payment thereof) of KAI for all Taxable periods ending on or before the Closing Date (the "Prior Tax Period"). The indemnification under this Section 9.1 shall be subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth in Article VIII. The Seller shall pay the Buyer, or KAI at the Buyer's instruction, for any additional Taxes that are the responsibility of the Seller pursuant to this Section 9.1 at least five days prior to payment of such amounts by the Buyer or KAI. To the extent it is commercially and legally reasonable to do so, the Buyer agrees that in exercising any discretionary

powers under this Section 9.1 it will do so in a manner that does not materially prejudice the Seller from a tax perspective.

(b)The Buyer and KAI agree to pay, reimburse, and indemnify the Seller and hold it harmless from and against Losses resulting from or attributable to all Taxes (or the non-payment thereof) of KAI for all Taxable periods ending after the Closing Date.

9.2Reserved.

9.3Tax Periods Beginning Before and Ending After the Closing Date. The Buyer will prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, any Tax Returns for KAI for tax periods beginning before and ending after the Closing Date. If requested by the Seller, the Buyer will permit the Seller to review and comment on each such Tax Return described in the preceding sentence prior to filing. The Seller shall be responsible for all Taxes relating to any Prior Tax Period. The Buyer shall be responsible for all Taxes for tax periods ending after the Closing Date.

9.4Cooperation on Tax Matters. The Buyer, KAI and the Seller will cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other Party or Parties, in connection with the filing and preparation of Tax Returns pursuant to this Article IX and any Proceeding related thereto. Such cooperation will include the retention (upon any other Party's request) of records and information that are reasonably relevant to any such Proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. The Buyer and the Seller agree that KAI will retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to KAI relating to any Taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until the expiration of the statute or period of limitations of the respective Taxable periods.

9.5Certain Transfer Taxes. All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other such Taxes and fees, including any penalties and interest thereon (collectively, the "Transfer Taxes"), incurred in connection with this Agreement or the Transactions will be paid by the Buyer when due, and the Buyer will, at its own expense, file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all such Transfer Taxes, and if required by applicable Law, the Seller will, and will cause its Affiliates to, join in the execution of any such Tax Returns and other documentation.

ACTION OR ANY PROCEEDING IN SUCH COURTS AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVE AND AGREE NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM IN ANY SUCH COURT THAT ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM.

10.8Governing Law. This Agreement and all other Transaction Documents (unless otherwise stated therein) will be governed by the laws of the State of Florida without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law principles of any jurisdiction.

10.9Amendments and Waivers. No amendment of any provision of this Agreement will be valid unless the amendment is in writing and signed by the Buyer and the Seller. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement will be valid unless the waiver is in writing and signed by the waiving Party. The failure of a Party at any time to require performance of any provision of this Agreement will not affect such Party's rights at a later time to enforce such provision. No waiver by any Party of any breach of this Agreement will be deemed to extend to any other breach hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any other breach.

10.10Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is determined by any court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable will not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision hereof or the invalid or unenforceable provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction. 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.

10.11Expenses. The Company and KAI will bear all expenses incurred by the Company and KAI or any Representative of the Company or KAI in connection with the Transactions contemplated to be performed before or on the Closing Date and such expenses will have been paid or accrued by the Company and KAI prior to the Closing Date. The Seller will bear all expenses incurred by the Seller or any of his Representatives in connection with the Transactions contemplated to be performed before or on the Closing Date. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the Buyer will bear all expenses incurred by the Buyer or any of its Representatives in connection with the Transactions contemplated to be performed before or on the Closing Date. 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.

10.12Construction. The Article and Section headings in this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and are not intended to affect the interpretation of this Agreement. Any reference in this Agreement to any Article or Section refers to the corresponding Article or Section of this Agreement. Any reference in this Agreement to any Schedule or Exhibit refers to the corresponding Schedule or Exhibit attached to this Agreement and all such Schedules and Exhibits are incorporated herein by reference. The word "including" in this Agreement means "including without limitation." This Agreement will be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties and no presumption or burden of proof will arise favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any provision in this Agreement. Unless the context requires otherwise, any reference to any Law will be deemed also to refer to all amendments and successor provisions thereto and all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, in each case as in effect as of the date hereof and the Closing Date. All accounting terms not specifically defined in this Agreement will be construed in accordance with GAAP as in effect on the date hereof (unless another effective date is specified herein). The word "or" in this Agreement is disjunctive but not necessarily exclusive. All words in this Agreement will be construed to be of such gender or number as the circumstances require. References in this Agreement to time periods in terms of a certain number of days mean calendar days unless expressly stated herein to be Business Days. In interpreting and enforcing this Agreement, each representation and warranty will be given independent significance of fact and will not be deemed superseded or modified by any other such representation or warranty. A reference to a

subsection without further reference to a Section is a reference to such subsection as contained in the same Section in which the reference appears, and this rule will also apply to paragraphs and other subdivisions. The terms "hereof," "herein," "hereunder," "hereby" and "herewith" and words of similar import will, unless otherwise stated, be construed to refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement;

10.13Specific Performance. Each Party acknowledges that the other Parties would be damaged irreparably and would have no adequate remedy of law if any provision of this Agreement is not performed in accordance with its specific terms or otherwise is breached. Accordingly, each Party agrees that the other Parties will be entitled to an injunction to prevent any breach of any provision of this Agreement and to enforce specifically any provision of this Agreement, in addition to any other remedy to which they may be entitled and without having to prove the inadequacy of any other remedy they may have at law or in equity and without being required to post bond or other security.

10.14Further Assurances. Each Party agrees to furnish upon request to any other Party such further information, to execute and deliver to any other Party such other documents, and to do such other acts and things, all as any other Party may reasonably request for the purpose of carrying out the intent of the Transaction Documents.

10.15Public Announcement. Because the Buyer is a publicly reporting company, the Seller agrees that upon Closing, the Buyer shall have the right to make such announcement, and provide such details about the purchase of the Interests by the Buyer from the Seller as the Buyer deems appropriate, provided that the Buyer show the Seller such announcement prior to making it. The Seller further agrees that it shall not make any other announcement of this Agreement or the transaction contemplated hereby or the Transactions without the prior approval of the Buyer.

10.16Attorneys' Fees. The prevailing party(ies) in any Proceeding relating to the enforcement or interpretation of this Agreement may recover from the unsuccessful party(ies) all costs, expenses, and reasonable attorney's fees (including expert witness and other consultants' fees and costs) relating to or arising out of: (a) the Proceeding (whether or not the Proceeding proceeds to judgment); and (b) any post-judgment or post-award proceeding including one to enforce or collect any judgment or award resulting from the Proceeding. All such judgments and awards shall contain a specific provision for the recovery of all such subsequently incurred costs, expenses and reasonable attorney's fees.

10.17Conflict Waiver; Attorney-Client Privilege ARTICLE I.

(a)Each of the Parties hereto acknowledges and agrees, on its own behalf and on behalf of its directors, members, shareholders, partners, officers, employees and Affiliates, that:

(i)Xxxxxxx Legal Group, PLLC has acted as counsel to: (A) the Company; (B) KAI; and (C) the Seller and their Affiliates (collectively, the "Seller Group"), in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the Transactions. The Buyer agrees, and shall cause the Company and KAI to agree, that, following consummation of the Transactions, such representation and any prior representation of the Company or KAI by Xxxxxxx Legal Group, PLLC (or any successor) ("Seller Group Law Firm") shall not preclude Seller Group Law Firm from serving as counsel to the Seller Group or any manager, member, partner, officer or employee of the Seller Group, in connection with any litigation, claim or obligation arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Transactions.

(ii)The Buyer shall not, and shall cause the Company and KAI not to, seek or have Seller Group Law Firm disqualified from any such representation based on the prior

representation of the Seller Group by Seller Group Law Firm. Each of the Parties hereto hereby consents thereto and waives any conflict of interest arising from such prior representation, and each of such parties shall cause any of its Affiliates to consent to waive any conflict of interest arising from such representation. Each of the Parties acknowledges that such consent and waiver is voluntary, that it has been carefully considered, and that the Parties have consulted with counsel or have been advised they should do so in connection herewith. The covenants, consent and waiver contained in this Section 10.17(a) shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which Seller Group Law Firm is entitled whether pursuant to law, contract or otherwise.

(b)All communications between the Seller Group, on the one hand, and Seller Group Law Firm, on the other hand, relating to the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the Transactions (the "Privileged Communications") shall be deemed to be attorney-client privileged and the expectation of client confidence relating thereto shall belong solely to the Seller and shall not pass to or be claimed by the Buyer, KAI or the Company. Accordingly, the Buyer, KAI and the Company shall not have access to any Privileged Communications or to the files of Seller Group Law Firm relating to such engagement from and after Closing and may not use or rely on any Privileged Communications in any claim, dispute, action, suit or proceeding against or involving any of the Seller Group. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, from and after the Closing: (i) the Seller (and not the Buyer, KAI or the Company) shall be the sole holder of the attorney-client privilege with respect to such engagement, and none of the Buyer, KAI or the Company shall be a holder thereof; (ii) to the extent that files of Seller Group Law Firm in respect of such engagement constitute property of the client, only the Seller (and not the Buyer, KAI or the Company) shall hold such property rights; and (iii) Seller Group Law Firm shall have no duty whatsoever to reveal or disclose any such attorney-client communications or files to the Buyer, KAI or the Company by reason of any attorney-client relationship between Seller Group Law Firm and KAI, the Seller and the Company or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a dispute arises between the Buyer or its Affiliates (including KAI and the Company), on the one hand, and a third party other than any of the Seller Group, on the other hand, the Buyer and its Affiliates (including KAI and the Company) may assert the attorney-client privilege to prevent disclosure of confidential communications to such third party; provided, however, that neither the Buyer nor any of its Affiliates (including KAI and the Company) may waive such privilege without the prior written consent of the Seller, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. In the event that the Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including KAI and the Company) is legally required by Order or otherwise legally required to access or obtain a copy of all or a portion of the Privileged Communications, to the extent: (A) permitted by applicable Law; and (B) advisable in the opinion of the Buyer's counsel, then the Buyer shall immediately (and, in any event, within two Business Days) notify the Seller in writing so that the Seller can seek a protective order.

(c)This Section 10.17 is intended for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, Seller Group Law Firm. This Section shall be irrevocable, and no term of this Section may be amended, waived or modified, without the prior written consent of Seller Group Law Firm.
