FUNDING AND INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT

EXHIBIT 10.2

FUNDING AND INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT

THIS FUNDING AND INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made as of September 27, 2009, between Gander Mountain Company, a Minnesota corporation (the “Company”), and Gratco LLC (the “Principal Shareholder”).

RECITALS

A. A Special Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Special Committee”) and the full Board of Directors of the Company has approved, and the Company intends to complete, a 1-for-30,000 reverse split of its outstanding common stock, par value $.01 per share (the “Common Stock”) (the “Reverse Stock Split”) that will result in certain of its shareholders holding less than one whole share but holding fractional interest shares (“Fractional Shares”).

B. Pursuant to Minnesota Business Corporation Act (“MBCA”) Section 302A.423 (“Section 423”), in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Company intends to elect to cause the cancellation of the Fractional Shares held by shareholders holding Fractional Shares following the Reverse Stock Split in exchange for the payment by the Principal Shareholder and the Other Principal Shareholder (as defined below) of cash consideration for each Fractional Share at the rate of $5.15 per whole share (calculated on a pre-Reverse Stock Split basis) (the “Cancellation Price”).

C. Following the Reverse Stock Split and the cancellation of Fractional Shares for those shareholders holding less than one whole share, the Company will effect a forward stock split at a 30,000-for-1 ratio (the “Forward Stock Split”) to restore the share ownership of all remaining shareholders to the number of shares held by them prior to the Reverse Stock Split.

D. The Principal Shareholder is currently one of the Company’s two largest shareholders and, by virtue of the Reverse Stock Split, will increase its percentage ownership in the Company.

E. The Company wishes to assign and delegate, and the Principal Shareholder is willing to accept and assume and be responsible for, the obligation to fund and make payments to be made in consideration of cancellation of Fractional Shares as provided herein.

F. In consideration of the Principal Shareholder’s assumption of the obligation to fund and make payments to be made in consideration of cancellation of the Fractional Shares, the Company has agreed to issue to the Principal Shareholder such number of whole shares of Common Stock as is determined by dividing the amount of such obligation funded by the Principal Shareholder by the Cancellation Price (calculated on a pre-Reverse Stock Split basis).

G. The Principal Shareholder has agreed, following the Reverse Stock Split and the Forward Stock Split, to make an offer to purchase certain shares of Common Stock that remain outstanding.

H. The Principal Shareholder’s objective is to own, as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, together with Xxxxx X. Xxxxx and the Xxxxx X. Xxxxx Irrevocable Grantor Retained Annuity Trust (together with the Principal Shareholder, the “Gratco Shareholders”), a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Common Stock collectively owned by (a) Holiday Stationstores, Inc. (“Holiday”), (b) individual beneficial or record holders of shares of Common Stock who are descendants of Xxxxxx X. and Xxxxx X. Xxxxxxxx or Xxxxxx X. and Xxxx X. Xxxxxxxx and/or the spouses of these descendants, (c) trusts holding shares of Common Stock established primarily for the benefit of such descendants and/or their spouses and/or (d) entities existing as of the date hereof or formed after the date hereof that hold or have voting rights with respect to any of the foregoing shares (collectively, the “Holiday Shareholders” or the “Other Principal Shareholder”).

I. The Principal Shareholder is willing to indemnify the Company, and make the resulting payments directly on behalf of the Company, if the Company is required to pay current or former shareholders any amounts in excess of the Cancellation Price paid for the Fractional Shares cancelled following the Reverse Stock Split or any amounts in exchange for such shareholders’ shares that are not cancelled as a result of the Reverse Stock Split.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS

In consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants contained herein, the parties agree as follows:

1. ASSIGNMENT, DELEGATION AND ASSUMPTION. The Company hereby assigns, delegates, conveys and transfers to the Principal Shareholder, and the Principal Shareholder hereby acquires, accepts and assumes from the Company, all right, title and interest in, and all responsibility for, the obligations of the Company to (a) make payments of the Cancellation Price for Fractional Shares in connection with the Reverse Stock Split and (b) pay amounts to current or former shareholders of the Company which are subject to indemnification pursuant to Sections 5 and 6, subject, in each case, to the limitations on such obligations set forth in this Agreement.

2. FUNDING FOR CANCELLATION OF FRACTIONAL SHARES.

(a) The Principal Shareholder severally assumes and agrees to pay, perform, discharge and fund a portion of the payments to be made to shareholders of the Company in consideration of the cancellation of Fractional Shares as a result of the Reverse Stock Split, as set forth in this Section 2.

(b) At least five business days before the date established by the Company for the effectiveness of the Reverse Stock Split (the “Reverse Split Effective Date”), the Company will deliver to the Principal Shareholder the Company’s good faith estimate of the amount of funds potentially needed to fund the cancellation of Fractional Shares as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. The parties agree that such funding estimate by the Company will be based, among other things, on (i) the Company’s good faith estimate of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock to be held by the Company’s record and beneficial shareholders as of the Reverse Split Effective Date and (y) the likelihood of shareholders reducing or increasing their shareholdings in order to receive cash or retain their shares as a result of the Reverse Stock Split and (ii) the requirement that sufficient funds be available so that additional funds from the Company are not needed to fund the cancellation of the Fractional Shares as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. The amount the Company determines should be available to potentially fund the cancellation of Fractional Shares as a result of the Reverse Stock Split is referred to herein as the “Initial Total Funding Amount”.

(c) No later than 10 business days before the Reverse Split Effective Date, the Company shall (i) appoint a bank or trust company reasonably satisfactory to the Principal Shareholder (the “Paying Agent”), and (ii) enter into a paying agent agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Principal Shareholder, with the Paying Agent for the payments to be made in consideration of the cancellation of the Fractional Shares. At least two business days before the Reverse Split Effective Date, the Principal Shareholder shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, into an escrow account with the Paying Agent (the “Escrow Account”), for the benefit of the holders of the Fractional Shares, cash in an amount at least equal to the Initial Funding Amount. “Initial Funding Amount” shall mean the payment required to be made by the Principal Shareholder to the Escrow Account pursuant to this paragraph such that both (x) the sum of such payment made by the Principal Shareholder and the payment made by the Other Principal Shareholder to the Escrow Account pursuant to Section 2 of the Other Funding Agreement (as defined in Section 14) equals the Initial Total Funding Amount, and (y) if shares of Common Stock were issued to the Principal Shareholder under Section 3 of this Agreement and the Other Principal Shareholder under Section 3 of the Other Funding Agreement as a result of all of the Initial Total Funding Amount being used to fund the cancellation of Fractional Shares as a result of the Reverse Stock Split, then immediately after the Reverse Split Effective Date and based on the number of shares of Common Stock expected to be owned by the Holiday Shareholders and the Gratco Shareholders immediately after the Reverse Split Effective Date, the Holiday Shareholders would beneficially own the same number of shares of Common Stock as beneficially owned by the Gratco Shareholders.

(d) On the tenth business day after the Reverse Split Effective Date (the “Final Funding Determination Date”), the Company or the Paying Agent shall notify the Principal Shareholder of the aggregate amount of payments actually made from the Escrow Account to the holders of the Common Stock after the Reverse Split Effective Date for the cancellation of Fractional Shares and any additional amount necessary to pay for the cancellation of any Fractional Shares for which a duly executed letter of transmittal has not as of the Final Funding Determination Date been received by the Company (such aggregate amount, the “Final Total Funding Amount”). The Company shall cause the Paying Agent to promptly deliver to the Principal Shareholder the amount of any excess of the Initial Funding Amount over the Final Funding Amount (as defined below), and the Principal Shareholder shall promptly deliver to the Paying Agent the amount of any excess of the Final Funding Amount over the Initial Funding Amount. The “Final Funding Amount” shall mean the payment required to be made by the Principal Shareholder to the Escrow Account pursuant to this paragraph such that both (x) the sum of such payment made by the Principal Shareholder and the payment made by the Other Principal Shareholder to the Escrow Account pursuant to Section 2 of the Other Funding Agreement (as defined in Section 14) equals the Final Total Funding

Amount, and (y) if shares of Common Stock were issued to the Principal Shareholder under Section 3 of this Agreement and the Other Principal Shareholder under Section 3 of the Other Funding Agreement as a result of all of the Final Total Funding Amount being used to fund the cancellation of Fractional Shares as a result of the Reverse Stock Split, then immediately after the Reverse Split Effective Date and based on the number of shares of Common Stock expected to be owned by the Holiday Shareholders and the Gratco Shareholders immediately after the Reverse Split Effective Date, the Holiday Shareholders would beneficially own the same number of shares of Common Stock as beneficially owned by the Gratco Shareholders. Any unclaimed funds in the Escrow Account after the Final Funding Determination Date will be handled as set forth in the paying agent agreement, but will not be returned to the Principal Shareholder (and no adjustment will be made in the number of Funding Consideration Shares issued to the Principal Shareholder pursuant to Section 3 as a result of the ultimate disposition of any such unclaimed funds).

3. ISSUANCE OF SHARES TO PRINCIPAL SHAREHOLDER. Within five business days after the Final Funding Determination Date and in consideration of the Principal Shareholder’s assumption of the obligations of the Company as set forth in Section 2, the Company agrees to issue to the Principal Shareholder a number of shares of Common Stock (calculated on a pre-Reverse Stock Split basis) equal to the Final Funding Amount divided by the Cancellation Price (rounded down to the nearest whole share) (the “Funding Consideration Shares”). If upon the Reverse Split Effective Date the Holiday Shareholders do not beneficially own the same number of shares of Common Stock as beneficially owned by the Gratco Shareholders, then the Principal Shareholder agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to achieve such parity, which efforts will include, without limitation, an adjustment of the Principal Shareholder’s Final Funding Amount and the Final Funding Amount of the Other Principal Shareholder pursuant to Section 2 of the Other Funding Agreement so that, as a result of the issuance of the Funding Consideration Shares, the Holiday Shareholders will beneficially own the same number of shares of Common Stock as the Gratco Shareholders.

4. CONDITIONS FOR REVERSE STOCK SPLIT. The obligations of the Company and the Principal Shareholder to complete the transactions required to be completed by them at or prior to the Reverse Split Effective Date shall be subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions: (a) the ratio to be used in the Reverse Stock Split shall not be adjusted without the consent of the Company and the Principal Shareholder, (b) the Reverse Stock Split shall not result in the cancellation of in excess of 20% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock in violation of Section 423, (c) the Reverse Stock Split shall result in the Company ceasing to be an Issuing Public Corporation, as defined in MBCA Section 302A.011, subd. 39, (d) unless waived by the Company and the Principal Shareholder, the Other Principal Shareholder shall have funded in full the Initial Funding Amount under (and as defined in) the Other Funding Agreement and shall not be in material breach of (or have disclaimed its obligations under) the Other Funding Agreement, unless in such case the Principal Shareholder has exercised its right to assume the obligations of Holiday under the Other Funding Agreement in accordance with Section 24 and shall have funded in full all amounts payable thereunder, (e) the Schedule 13E-3 Filings (as hereinafter defined) in form and substance consistent with the terms of this Agreement shall have been cleared by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), (f) unless waived by the Company, (i) the representations and warranties of the Principal Shareholder set forth in this Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the Reverse Split Effective Date, and (ii) the covenants and agreements of the Principal Shareholder required to be performed at or prior to the Reverse Split Effective Date shall have been performed in all material respects, and (g) unless waived by the Principal Shareholder, (x) the representations and warranties of the Company set forth in this Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the Reverse Split Effective Date, and (y) the covenants and agreements of the Company required to be performed at or prior to the Reverse Split Effective Date shall have been performed in all material respects.

5. INDEMNIFICATION. If, as a result of an action, suit or proceeding by a current or former shareholder of the Company, the Company is required to pay such shareholder (a) any per share amount in excess of the Cancellation Price as compensation for the cancellation of such shareholder’s Fractional Shares or (b) any per share amount in exchange for such shareholder’s shares that are not cancelled as a result of the Reverse Stock Split (any such amounts under clause (a) or clause (b), the “Excess Price”), the Principal Shareholder severally agrees to indemnify the Company for, and hold the Company harmless against, an amount equal to 50% of the Excess Price. The Principal Shareholder will not be liable for any attorneys’ fees, expenses or other costs incurred by the Company in connection with such actions, suits or proceedings, except for an amount equal to 50% of the Excess Price. The Principal Shareholder’s obligation under the first sentence of this Section 5 will only arise upon the determination of an Excess Price amount subject to the indemnity described herein as a result of a final Order of a court of competent jurisdiction not subject to further appeal or as a result of a final binding settlement consented to

by the Principal Shareholder (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), with payment to be made promptly following demand by the Company. The indemnity obligations of the Principal Shareholder hereunder shall apply irrespective of the truth or untruth of the representations and warranties of the Company hereunder or, after the Reverse Split Effective Date, any defense to enforcement that the Principal Shareholder may have, except that the Principal Shareholder shall have no further liability under this Section 5 or any other section of this Agreement in the event this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 27 and the Other Principal Shareholder assumes all of the obligations of this Agreement under the Other Funding Agreement pursuant to Section 24 of the Other Funding Agreement (it being understood that the Other Principal Shareholder will have that liability).

6. PROCEDURES FOR INDEMNIFICATION. The Principal Shareholder and the Other Principal Shareholder will jointly have the right to control, at their own cost, the defense of any actions, suits or proceedings that may result in indemnity pursuant to Section 5 (an “Excess Price Proceeding”) with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company. If the Principal Shareholder and the Other Principal Shareholder do not jointly elect to assume the control of an Excess Price Proceeding within three (3) days after the commencement of any such Excess Price Proceeding, then the Company will assume and have the right to control, at its own cost, the defense of any Excess Price Proceeding. If the Company controls the defense of any Excess Price Proceeding, the Company shall (a) obtain the written consent of the Principal Shareholder to the selection of legal counsel to the Company for the defense of any such claims (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), (b) reasonably consult, and cause the Company’s legal counsel to reasonably consult, with the Principal Shareholder and its legal counsel regarding such defense upon the Principal Shareholder’s reasonable request, (c) keep the Principal Shareholder and its legal counsel reasonably informed of any material developments in such action, suit or proceeding, and (d) prior to compromising or settling any Excess Price Proceeding, obtain the prior written consent of the Principal Shareholder (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned). The Company will have the right, at its own expense, to engage legal counsel to participate in the defense of such action, suit or proceeding. If the Principal Shareholder and the Other Principal Shareholder jointly control the defense of any Excess Price Proceeding, the Principal Shareholder and the Other Principal Shareholder shall (a) obtain the written consent of the Company to the selection of legal counsel to the Principal Shareholder and the Other Principal Shareholder for the defense of any such claims (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), (b) reasonably consult, and cause their legal counsel to reasonably consult, with the Company and its legal counsel regarding such defense upon the Company’s reasonable request, (c) keep the Company and its legal counsel reasonably informed of any material developments in such action, suit or proceeding, and (d) prior to compromising or settling any Excess Price Proceeding, obtain the prior written consent of the Company (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned). The Company will give the Principal Shareholder written notice of all claims for indemnification under this Agreement and the amount of such claims promptly upon their determination, provided that the failure to provide any such notice shall not prejudice the rights of the Company to indemnification hereunder. All such claims shall be satisfied by the Principal Shareholder by payment of such obligation directly to the current or former shareholder of the Company entitled to such indemnifiable amount within five business days of receipt of such notice by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts specified by such current or former shareholder, or at such other time and in such other manner as may otherwise be provided in any final Order not subject to further appeal or any final binding settlement agreement.

7. OFFER TO PURCHASE.

(a) Within 30 days following the latest to occur of (a) the Reverse Split Effective Date, (b) deregistration of the Common Stock under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and (c) delisting of the Common Stock from the Nasdaq Global Market, the Principal Shareholder agrees to make a binding and irrevocable written offer to purchase (the “Offer to Purchase”) all of the shares of outstanding Common Stock, other than shares held by the Gratco Shareholders or by the Holiday Shareholders (such shares that are subject to the offer to purchase, the “Eligible Shares”), at a per share price equal to the Cancellation Price, on the following terms:

(i) The Principal Shareholder will offer to purchase 50% of all Eligible Shares.

(ii) The Offer to Purchase shall remain open for no less than 60 days following the first date of mailing thereof to the holders of Eligible Shares, and, except as required by Law, shall not be extended or amended without the consent of the Principal Shareholder.

(iii) The disclosure contained in the Offer to Purchase shall be determined by the Principal Shareholder, subject to the consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned).

(iv) All payments to holders of Eligible Shares accepting the Offer to Purchase described in this Section 7 will be made in cash by the Principal Shareholder promptly (and in no event more than five business days) following reasonable and customary demonstration of unencumbered ownership of such shares by the shareholder accepting the Offer to Purchase and the transmittal of such shares to the Company’s transfer agent for the benefit of the Principal Shareholder pursuant to a transmittal letter in reasonable and customary form. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, except as otherwise set forth in this clause (iv), the Offer to Purchase shall not be subject to any other conditions and shall not require any holder of Eligible Shares to make any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement in connection with accepting such Offer to Purchase.

(v) The Principal Shareholder will comply with the requirements of Regulation 14E under the Exchange Act, to the extent applicable, and any other applicable Laws in connection with the Offer to Purchase.

(vi) Upon the expiration of the Offer to Purchase, assuming compliance by the Principal Shareholder with the terms of this Agreement, the Principal Shareholder shall be under no further obligation to offer to purchase any remaining outstanding shares of Common Stock held by Eligible Holders at the Cancellation Price, or at any price.

(b) If upon completion of the Offer to Purchase the Holiday Shareholders do not beneficially own the same number of shares of Common Stock as beneficially owned by the Gratco Shareholders, then the Principal Shareholder agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to achieve such parity, which efforts will include, without limitation, selling shares of Common Stock to the Other Principal Shareholder (or buying shares from the Other Principal Shareholder) at a per share price equal to the Cancellation Price so that the Holiday Shareholders beneficially own the same number of shares of Common Stock as the Gratco Shareholders.

8. SEC AND SHAREHOLDER DISCLOSURE. The Reverse Stock Split, the Forward Stock Split, the cancellation of the Fractional Shares, the payments to be made in consideration of such cancellation and the transactions related thereto, including the Offer to Purchase described in Section 7, shall be carried out in the manner described in the final Information Statement of the Company and the Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3 to be filed with the SEC under Schedule 13E-3 (collectively, the “Schedule 13E-3 Filings”). The Company and Principal Shareholder agree to join in, and reasonably cooperate with respect to the preparation of, and file each Schedule 13E-3 Filing, each amended Schedule 13E-3 Filing, and any other document or correspondence with the SEC required to be filed in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Principal Shareholder agrees to provide the Company with any information with respect to the Principal Shareholder that is required to be included in any Schedule 13E-3 Filing or amendment thereto or any other document or correspondence with the SEC required to be filed in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Company shall provide the Principal Shareholder with the opportunity to review and comment upon all disclosures in the Schedule 13E-3 Filings, and the Company shall give due and reasonable consideration to such comments. The Company further agrees to cause the final Information Statement of the Company included on a Schedule 13E-3 Filing, as filed with the SEC, to be mailed to all shareholders of the Company.

9. LIMITATION ON OBLIGATIONS.

The Principal Shareholder is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in every jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted by it makes such qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing would not have a material adverse effect on its business or ability to complete its obligations under this Agreement.

(g) BROKERS, ETC. No broker, finder or investment banker is entitled to any brokerage, finder’s or other fee or commission payable by the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Reverse Stock Split or the Forward Stock Split based upon arrangements made by or on behalf of the Principal Shareholder or any of its affiliates or associates.

(n) TRANSFER OR RESALE. The Principal Shareholder understands that:

(i) the issuance of the Funding Consideration Shares has not been and is not being registered under the Securities Act or any applicable state securities laws and, consequently, the Principal Shareholder may have to bear the risk of owning the Funding Consideration Shares for an indefinite period of time because the Funding Consideration Shares may not be transferred unless (i) the resale of the Funding Consideration Shares is registered pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act; (ii) the Principal Shareholder has delivered to the Company an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company (in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions) to the effect that the Funding Consideration Shares to be sold or transferred may be sold or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such registration; or (iii) the Funding Consideration Shares are sold or transferred pursuant to Rule 144;

(ii) any sale of the Funding Consideration Shares made in reliance on Rule 144 may be made only in accordance with the terms of Rule 144 and, if Rule 144 is not applicable, any resale of the Funding Consideration Shares under circumstances in which the seller (or the person through whom the sale is made) may be deemed to be an underwriter (as that term is defined in the Securities Act) may require compliance with another exemption under the Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder; and

(iii) neither the Company nor any other person is under any obligation to register the Funding Consideration Shares under the Securities Act or any state securities laws or to comply with the terms and conditions of any exemption thereunder.

(o) LEGENDS. The Principal Shareholder understands that until (i) all of the Funding Consideration Shares may be sold by the Principal Shareholder without compliance with the requirements of Rule 144 or (ii) such time as the resale of the Funding Consideration Shares has been registered under the Securities Act, the certificates representing the Funding Consideration Shares will bear a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order may be placed against transfer of the certificates for such Funding Consideration Shares):

(p) RESIDENCY. The Principal Shareholder is a resident of, or domiciled in, the jurisdiction set forth in the address for the Principal Shareholder contained in Section 15.

(ii) The Company shall, and the Principal Shareholder shall cause the Company to, maintain in effect for six years from the date of the later of the Reverse Split Effective Date or the consummation of the Offer to Purchase the current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies maintained by the Company (provided that the Company may substitute therefor policies with an insurer of equal or greater claims paying ratings and of at least the same coverage containing terms and conditions that are not less favorable) with respect to matters occurring prior to the later of the Reverse Split Effective Date or the consummation of the Offer to Purchase.

(iii) The provisions set forth in this Section 13(a) shall not be exclusive of any other rights with respect to indemnification, insurance or expense advancement which any person may have or hereafter acquire under any Law, agreement or otherwise. Following the Reverse Split Effective Date, the Principal Shareholder shall use its best efforts to cause the Company to, assume, honor and comply with all agreements and contracts between the Company and its directors, officers, employees, fiduciaries or agents requiring the Company to provide indemnification, insurance or expense advancement.

(iv) If the Company or any of its successors or assigns (x) consolidates with or merges into any other person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (y) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any person, then, and in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of the Company shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 13(a).

(d) Shareholder Parity. The Principal Shareholder acknowledges and agrees that its objective upon the completion of the Reverse Stock Split pursuant to Sections 2 and 3 and the Offer to Purchase pursuant to Section 7 is that the Holiday Shareholders beneficially own a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Gratco Shareholders. If such parity is not achieved upon either the completion of the Reverse Stock Split pursuant to Sections 2 and 3 or the Offer to Purchase pursuant to Section 7, each of the Company and the Principal Shareholder agrees to use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to achieve such parity.

been registered under an effective registration statement filed under the Securities Act, (ii) the holder of Funding Consideration Shares provides the Company and the Company’s transfer agent with an opinion of counsel, in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions, to the effect that a public sale or transfer of such Funding Consideration Shares may be made without registration under the Securities Act and such sale either may occur without restriction on the manner of such sale or transfer, or (iii) such holder provides the Company and the Company’s transfer agent with reasonable assurances that such Funding Consideration Shares can be sold under Rule 144, the Company will permit the transfer of the Funding Consideration Shares, and the Company’s transfer agent will issue one or more certificates, free from any restrictive legend, in such name and in such denominations as specified by such holder.

19. CHANGES, WAIVERS, ETC. Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated orally, but only by a statement in writing signed by the party against which enforcement of the change, waiver, discharge or termination is sought. In addition, none of Sections 2, 5 or 17 of this Agreement may be changed or waived without the prior written consent of the Bank Agent, so long as the Bank Agent is the agent for the Company’s senior credit facility. Any consent, waiver, amendment or other determination to be made, or action to be taken, by the Company under or with respect to this Agreement prior to the Reverse Split Effective Date (including with respect to any termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 27) shall be made or taken only at the direction and upon the approval of the Special Committee.

20. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the Laws of the State of Minnesota without regard to its conflicts of law rules.

21. SEVERABILITY. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of Law, or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect, so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Reverse Stock Split or the Forward Stock Split is not affected in any manner adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original
