Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, at the Closing, the Buyer shall purchase, acquire and accept from the TVV, and TVV shall sell, transfer, assign, convey and deliver to the Buyer, all right, title and interest in and to the Stock, free and clear of any and all Encumbrances. For the avoidance of doubt, the Stock so purchased does not include the 18,125 shares of common stock of the Company set forth under the heading “Shares of Rollover Stock” on Exhibit A, which shall be retained by Xxxxxx as set forth on Exhibit A. TVV shall on the Closing Date execute and deliver to the Buyer and the Company stock certificates accompanied by executed stock powers sufficient to transfer, convey, and assign the Stock to the Buyer.

Section 1.2 Closing. The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall take place concurrently with the execution of this Agreement on the date hereof (the “Closing Date”). Notwithstanding the actual Closing Date, the Closing shall be effective as of 12:01 a.m. (Eastern Time) on March 1, 2016 (the “Effective Date”). In lieu of an in person Closing, the Closing may instead be accomplished by facsimile or email (in PDF format) transmission to the respective offices of legal counsel for the parties of the requisite documents, duly executed where required, delivered upon actual confirmed receipt.

Section 1.3 Purchase Price and Payment.

(a) The parties hereby agree that, at the Closing and in consideration of the sale by TVV to the Buyer of the Stock and in reliance upon the representations and warranties of the parties herein contained and subject to the satisfaction of all of the conditions contained herein, the Buyer shall pay to TVV an aggregate amount of cash (the “Closing Date Payment”) equal to:

(i) $11,000,000, which includes a $50,000 non-refundable amount deposited by Buyer with XxXxxxxx Xxxxx, PLLC on March 15, 2016; plus

(ii) an amount equal to the Estimated Cash and Cash Equivalents (as defined in Section 1.3(e)); plus

(iii) $100,000, minus the amount of the loan payment made to Pinnacle Bank on March 1, 2016, as consideration for the period from March 1, to the Closing Date; plus

(iv) if the Estimated Working Capital (as defined in Section 1.3(e)) is greater than the Target Working Capital, then an amount equal to the difference between the Estimated Working Capital and the Target Working Capital; minus

(v) an amount equal to the Estimated Indebtedness (as defined in Section 1.3(e)); minus

(vi) an amount equal to the Estimated Company Expenses (as defined in Section 1.3(e)); minus

(vii) if the Estimated Working Capital is less than the Target Working Capital, then an amount equal to the difference between the Target Working Capital and the Estimated Working Capital; minus

(viii) the Escrow Amount (as defined in Section 1.3(d)); and minus

(b) At the Closing, the Buyer shall, on behalf of the Company, repay, or shall cause to be repaid, the Estimated Indebtedness set forth on Schedule 1.3(b). The Buyer and the Company will cooperate in arranging for such repayment and shall take such reasonable actions as may be necessary to facilitate such repayment and to facilitate the release, in connection with such repayment, of any Encumbrances securing the Indebtedness.

(d) At the Closing, Buyer shall deposit $500,000.00 (the “Escrow Amount”) into an interest-bearing escrow account at Fifth Third Bank (the “Escrow Agent”). The Escrow Agent shall hold the Escrow Amount and all interest and other amounts earned thereon in an escrow account (the “Escrow Account”) for purposes of securing any amounts payable by TVV on account of indemnification obligations under Section 6.2(a) hereof and certain other amounts payable hereunder in accordance with this Agreement and the agreement among TVV, the Buyer, and the Escrow Agent in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit B attached hereto (the “Escrow Agreement”).

(i) Within five (5) Business Days following the ninetieth (90^th) day after the Closing Date (the “Release Date”), the Escrow Amount, minus (x) the amount of any Losses previously offset against the Escrow Amount pursuant to the Escrow Agreement and Section 6.3 hereof, minus (y) the amount of any costs and expenses previously paid out of the Escrow Account in accordance with this Agreement, and minus (z) the amount of any indemnity claims asserted by the Buyer Indemnified Parties in good faith pursuant to Section 6.2 prior to the Release Date and which remain in dispute as of the Release Date (any amount described in clause (z) of this sentence, an “Unresolved Amount”), shall be released from the Escrow Account and paid over to TVV, by confirmed wire transfer of immediately available funds, with the costs of such disbursement paid from the Escrow Account. In the event it is finally determined, in accordance with Article VI, that any Unresolved Amount withheld from release pursuant to the preceding sentence is not subject to indemnification by the Seller Indemnifying Parties under Section 6.2, such amount shall be released from the Escrow Account and paid over to TVV, by confirmed wire transfer of immediately available funds, within five (5) Business Days following such determination.

(ii) The Buyer, on one hand, and TVV, on the other hand, shall each pay fifty percent (50%) of the fees, expenses and costs associated with establishing and maintaining the Escrow Account in accordance with this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, provided that the costs of disbursements shall be paid from the Escrow Account.

(iii) The Buyer and TVV agree to promptly provide the Escrow Agent with jointly executed written instructions to disburse or retain the Escrow Amount (or a portion thereof, as applicable) from the Escrow Account in accordance with this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement.

(e) The Company has delivered to the Buyer a statement (the “Estimated Closing Statement”) containing the Company’s good faith estimates of the Company’s (i) Cash and Cash Equivalents as of the Adjustment Time (the “Estimated Cash and Cash Equivalents”), outstanding Indebtedness as of the Adjustment Time, excluding the indebtedness evidenced by the Xxxxxx Redemption Note (the “Estimated Indebtedness”), Net Working Capital, which shall be consistent with the sample calculation set forth in Exhibit C, as of the Adjustment Time (the “Estimated Working Capital”), outstanding Company Expenses as of the Adjustment Time (the “Estimated Company Expenses”), and (ii) calculation of the Closing Date Payment based on such estimates.

Section 1.4 Post-Closing Adjustments.

(a) Within ninety (90) days following the Closing Date, the Buyer shall prepare and deliver to TVV a written statement (the “Closing Statement”) which shall include (i) the Buyer’s calculations of the Company’s (A) Cash and Cash Equivalents as of the Adjustment Time, (B) Indebtedness outstanding as of the Adjustment Time, excluding the indebtedness evidenced by the Xxxxxx Redemption Note, (C) Net Working Capital as of the Adjustment Time and (D) Company Expenses outstanding as of the Adjustment Time and (ii) the Buyer’s calculation of the Closing Date Payment based upon the Closing Statement (including provision for a 2.93% adjustment for the Rollover Amount). The Closing Statement (and the components thereof) will be prepared and determined in accordance with GAAP as modified by the definitions of Cash and Cash Equivalents, Indebtedness (excluding the Xxxxxx Redemption Note), Company Expenses and Net Working Capital (and the Net Working Capital calculation shall be consistent with the sample working capital calculation set forth on Exhibit C). The preparation of the Closing Statement shall be for the sole purpose of determining the Final Closing Date Payment (as defined below). TVV shall have thirty (30) days following the receipt of the Closing Statement (the “Review Period”) to review the same. On or before the expiration of the Review Period, TVV shall deliver to the Buyer a written statement setting forth in reasonable detail (y) any specific item on the Closing Statement which TVV believes has not been prepared in accordance with this Agreement and the correct amount of such specific item and (z) TVV’s alternative calculation of the Closing Date Payment (the “Closing Statement Response Notice”). Any items not specifically objected to in the Closing Statement Response Notice will be deemed to have been accepted by, and will be binding and conclusive on, TVV on the thirtieth (30th) day following delivery of the Closing Statement to TVV. If TVV does not deliver such Closing Statement Response Notice to the Buyer within the Review Period, TVV shall be deemed to have accepted the Closing Statement in its entirety and the Closing Statement (and the determination of the Closing Date Payment set forth therein) shall be binding and conclusive on the parties and not subject to appeal.

(b) The amount of the Closing Date Payment set forth on the Closing Statement, as accepted or deemed accepted under Section 1.4(a) or as determined in accordance with Section 1.4(c), shall constitute the “Final Closing Date Payment” for purposes of this Agreement.

(c) In the event that TVV delivers a Closing Statement Response Notice within the Review Period, the Buyer and TVV shall in good faith attempt to resolve any specific objections set forth in such Closing Statement Response Notice. Any such specific objections which cannot be resolved between the Buyer and TVV within thirty (30) days following the Buyer’s receipt of the Closing Statement Response Notice shall be resolved in accordance with this Section 1.4(c); provided, that neither the Buyer nor TVV shall be permitted to raise any objection to the Estimated Closing Statement or the Closing Statement, as applicable, unless such objection is raised in the Closing Statement or the Closing Statement Response Notice, respectively, as opposed to any amendment or restatement thereof, none of which shall be permitted. Should TVV and the Buyer not be able to resolve such specific objections set forth in the Closing Statement Response Notice (such specific unresolved items, the “Outstanding Disputed Items”), within the thirty (30) day period described above, either party may submit only the Outstanding Disputed Items to Xxxxx Xxxxxxx LLP (the “Accounting Referee”) for review and resolution, with instructions to complete the same as promptly as practicable, but in any event within thirty (30) days of its engagement. If any Outstanding Disputed Item is submitted to the Accounting Referee for resolution, the Accounting Referee shall determine, based solely on written submissions or presentations by the Buyer and TVV and their respective Representatives and not by independent review, the value of the Outstanding Disputed Items. In determining such amounts, the Accounting Referee: (A) shall be bound by the principles set forth in this Section 1.4, and (B) shall not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by any party in the Closing Statement or the Closing Statement Response Notice, as applicable, or less than the smallest value for such item claimed by any party in the Closing Statement or the Closing Statement Response Notice, as applicable. Such Accounting Referee shall review only the Outstanding Disputed Items and shall deliver a written statement setting forth its resolution of the dispute, which statement shall include its calculation of: (1) Cash and Cash Equivalents as of the Adjustment Time, (2) Indebtedness outstanding as of the Adjustment Time, (3) Net Working Capital as of the Adjustment Time, and (4) Company Expenses outstanding as of the Adjustment Time and the Closing Date Payment, each calculated using non-disputed items and the Accounting Referee’s determinations of the Outstanding Disputed Items. Such calculations, absent manifest error, shall be determinative of the Final Closing Date Payment and shall be binding and conclusive on the parties and not subject to appeal. The fees and costs of the Accounting Referee, if one is required, shall be payable one-half (1/2) by the Buyer, on the one hand, and one-half (1/2) by TVV, on the other hand.

(d) In the event that the Final Closing Date Payment is less than the Closing Date Payment, TVV shall pay such shortfall amount to the Buyer by wire transfer of immediately available funds. In the event the Final Closing Date Payment exceeds the Closing Date Payment, the Buyer shall pay to TVV an amount in cash equal to such excess amount. Any payment due under this Section 1.4(d) shall be made within five (5) Business Days of the determination of the Final Closing Date Payment.

Section 1.5 Withholding. The Buyer shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the Purchase Price, including, for the avoidance of doubt, any adjustment to the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 1.4, and any other payment under this Agreement, any withholding Taxes or other amounts required under the Code or any Law to be deducted and withheld. To the extent that any such amounts are so deducted or withheld, such amounts will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

Section 1.6 Purchase Price. All amounts paid by the Buyer to or on behalf of the Company or TVV under this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, including the Closing Date Payment, are referred to herein as the “Purchase Price”.

If any such Tax Return must be signed by the Buyer, any Affiliate thereof, or the Company following the Closing Date, the Buyer agrees that it will (or will cause such other parties to) reasonably cooperate in signing such Tax Return in order to permit the timely filing of such Tax Return. TVV shall provide, or cause to be provided, to the Buyer a draft of any such Tax Return at least thirty (30) days prior to the due date, giving effect to extensions thereto, for filing such Tax Return, for review by the Buyer. The Buyer shall notify TVV of any reasonable objections the Buyer may have to any items set forth in such draft Tax Return and the Buyer and TVV agree to consult and resolve in good faith any such objection. If the parties cannot resolve any such objections, the item in question shall be resolved by the Accounting Referee. The fees and expenses of the Accounting Referee shall be borne one-half (1/2) by TVV, and one-half (1/2) by the Buyer. Such Tax Returns shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past practices except as required by changes in Law or as required by a provision of this Section 5.2.

(ii) The Buyer shall prepare and file, or cause to be timely prepared and filed, all Tax Returns of the Company, for Straddle Periods. Such Tax Returns (“Straddle Returns”) shall be prepared consistently with past practice to the extent permitted by Law. The Buyer shall provide, or cause to be provided, to TVV a draft of any Straddle Return at least thirty (30) days prior to the due date, giving effect to extensions thereto for filing such Tax Return, for review by TVV. TVV shall notify the Buyer of any reasonable objections TVV may have to any items set forth in such draft Straddle Return and the Buyer and TVV agree to consult and resolve in good faith any such objection. If the parties cannot resolve any such objections, the item in question shall be resolved by the Accounting Referee. The fees and expenses of the Accounting Referee shall be borne one-half (1/2) by TVV, and one-half (1/2) by the Buyer. The Buyer shall notify TVV of any amounts due from TVV in respect of any Straddle Return no later than ten (10) Business Days prior to the date on which such Straddle Return is due, and no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the date on which such Straddle Return is due, TVV shall pay the Buyer the amount of Taxes for which it is responsible.

(b) Straddle Periods. For purposes of this Agreement, in the case of any taxable year or period that begins before and ends after the Closing Date (a “Straddle Period”), (i) the amount of any Property Taxes of the Company for a Straddle Period allocable to the Pre-Closing Period shall be equal to the amount of such Tax for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the taxable period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in such Straddle Period, (ii) the amount of any Taxes other than Property Taxes of the Company allocable to the Pre-Closing Period shall be computed as if such taxable year or period (and the taxable year or period of any entity taxable as a partnership in which the Company owns a direct or indirect interest) ended as of the close of business on the Closing Date, and (iii) TVV will receive the benefit of all tax deposits which have been made prior to the Closing Date, and the Straddle Return will properly allocate all pertinent income and expenses that were incurred up to the Closing Date.

(c) Tax Sharing Agreements. The Company shall cause the provisions of any Tax sharing agreement involving the Company to be terminated on or before the Closing Date. After the Closing Date, no party shall have any rights or obligations under such Tax sharing agreement.

(d) Cooperation on Tax Matters. After the Closing, the Buyer and TVV shall promptly make available or cause to be made available to the other, as reasonably requested (at the expense of the requesting party), all information, records or documents relating to Tax liabilities and potential Tax liabilities relating to the Company for all Pre-Closing Periods and shall preserve all such information, records and documents until the expiration of any applicable statute of limitations or extensions thereof.

(e) Transfer Taxes. TVV shall pay all amounts owed for any sales, transfer, value added, excise, stock transfer, stamp, recording, registration and any similar Taxes incurred under the laws of the United States of America or any state or local taxing authority thereof (“Transfer Taxes”) that become payable in connection with the Stock Purchase and the other transactions contemplated hereby. The Buyer shall (i) file all necessary documentation and Tax Returns with respect to any sales, transfer and similar Taxes, and (ii) provide copies of such documentation and Tax Returns to TVV. The applicable parties shall cooperate in filing such forms and documents as may be necessary to permit any such Transfer Tax to be assessed and paid and to obtain any exemption or refund of any such Transfer Tax.

(f) Tax Contests. TVV shall have the right, at its own expense, to control and settle the portion of any audit, examination, or other administrative or judicial proceeding, contest, assessment, notice of deficiency, or other adjustment or proposed adjustment relating to any and all Taxes (a “Tax Contest”) for which TVV may have to indemnify a Buyer Indemnified Party, provided, that the Buyer shall have the right to participate at its own expense in any Tax Contest that could have the effect of increasing a Tax liability of the Buyer, and neither the Company nor TVV shall settle or compromise any Tax Contest without the Buyer’s prior written consent if such settlement or compromise could have the effect of increasing a Tax liability of the Buyer or the Company.

(g) Interaction with Article VI. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, to the extent that a provision of this Section 5.2 conflicts with a provision of Article VI, this Section 5.2 shall govern.

Section 5.3 Books and Records. From and after the Closing, the Buyer shall, and shall cause the Company to, until the seventh (7th) anniversary of the Closing Date or such longer period as required by state, federal or local law, retain all books, records and other documents pertaining to the business of the Company in existence on the Closing Date and to make the same available for inspection by TVV (at its expense) at reasonable times upon reasonable request and upon reasonable notice.

Section 5.4 Further Action. Each of the parties hereto shall use its respective commercially reasonable efforts to take or cause to be taken all appropriate action, do or cause to be done all things necessary, proper or advisable and execute and deliver such documents and other papers, as may be required to carry out the provisions of this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements and consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by hereby and thereby.

Section 5.5 Non-Disclosure, Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation.

(a) TVV hereby covenants and agrees that from and after the Closing it will not, directly or indirectly, and shall cause its Affiliates not to:

(i) disclose or furnish to any Person, other than the Buyer any Confidential Information; provided, however, that this covenant of non-disclosure shall not apply to information (A) which is, or at any time becomes available in the public domain (other than as a result of disclosure by TVV or any Affiliate of TVV), (B) which is required to be disclosed by Law or court or administrative court order (provided that the Buyer receives notice of such required disclosure and a reasonable opportunity to take steps to maintain the confidentiality thereof), and (C) which the Buyer expressly authorizes, in writing, TVV to disclose prior to such disclosure; and

(ii) until the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Closing Date, anywhere in the United States own, manage, operate, control, invest or participate in or be connected with in any capacity (either as an employee, employer, trustee, consultant, agent, principal, partner, corporate officer, director, manager, owner or shareholder or in any other individual or representative capacity) with any business, individual, partnership, firm, corporation or other Person (other than the Buyer) which is engaged in the business of the manufacture, production and direct sale of industrial mixers via catalog and the internet, with average total sale invoices (for an individual sale) of approximately $1,000.00. Without implied limitation, the foregoing covenant shall prohibit: (A) hiring or engaging or attempting to hire or engage for or on behalf of TVV or any other Person, any officer or employee of the Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including officers or employees of the Company), or any former officer or employee of the Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including any former officer or employee of the Company) who was employed or retained during the twelve (12) month period immediately preceding the date of solicitation for or on behalf of TVV or any other Person, or soliciting or attempting to solicit any such officer or employee or any independent contractor of Buyer or its Affiliates (including independent contractors of the Company) to terminate his or her relationship or employment with the Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including the Company), or (B) soliciting for or on behalf of TVV or any other Person, any client or customer of the Company as of the Closing Date or during the preceding twelve (12) months, or diverting to any Person any client, customer or business opportunity of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer acknowledges that TVV and certain of its Affiliates are private equity funds engaged in seeking to invest in, and investing in, a diverse range of manufacturing and industrial enterprises, some of which may overlap with some of the Company’s business operations, and Buyer acknowledges that such investment activities are not prohibited by this subsection (ii), provided that a principal portion of the business of any such manufacturing and industrial enterprise is not the manufacture, production and direct sale of industrial mixers via catalog and the internet, with average total sale invoices (for an individual sale) of approximately $1,000.00.

(b) TVV hereby agrees that the covenants contained in this Section 5.5 (the “Restrictive Covenants”) are entered into in partial consideration of the Purchase Price, are reasonable in geographic scope and duration in view of the relevant market for the products and services of the Company and that any breach of any of the Restrictive Covenants could result in continuing and irreparable harm to the Buyer or its Affiliates (including the Company). Therefore, TVV hereby agrees and consents that, in addition to any other remedies available to the Buyer or its Affiliates (including the Company) (whether at law or at equity), the Buyer or its Affiliates (including the Company) shall be entitled to seek an injunction, restraining order or any appropriate decree of specific performance for any actual or threatened violation or breach of this Section 5.5 by TVV or TVV’s Affiliates, without the posting of any bond.

(c) Each of the Restrictive Covenants is distinct and severable, notwithstanding that some of such covenants may be set forth in one section hereof for convenience.

(d) In the event that any or all of the Restrictive Covenants shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable by reason of their geographic or temporal restrictions being too great, or by reason that the range of activities covered are too great, or for any other reason, they should be interpreted to extend over the maximum geographic area, period of time, range of activities, or other restrictions as to which they may be enforceable.

Section 5.6 General Waiver and Release. TVV, on behalf of its Affiliates, Representatives, successors, and assigns and any other Person claiming by, through or under any of the foregoing (collectively, the “Stockholder Releasing Parties”), does hereby unconditionally and irrevocably release, waive and forever discharge the Buyer, the Company, each of their respective predecessors and successors and each of their respective past, present and future Representatives, Subsidiaries and Affiliates (and any Affiliates of any of the foregoing) from any and all claims, demands, judgments, causes of action and liabilities of any nature whatsoever, whether or not known, suspected or claimed, arising directly or indirectly from any act, omission, event or transaction occurring on or prior to the Closing Date, which, for the avoidance of doubt, includes (without limitation) any and all claims of breach and causes of action based on alleged breach and associated liabilities arising out of or relating to any commercial arrangement or agreement between TVV and the Company or any of the Stockholder Releasing Parties entered into prior to the Closing, but excludes (subject to Section 6.5) any of TVV’s rights expressly set forth in this Agreement, or any other Transaction Agreement to which TVV is a party. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, TVV EXPRESSLY WAIVES AND RELINQUISHES ALL RIGHTS AND BENEFITS AFFORDED BY ANY APPLICABLE Law that limits in any manner the release set forth herein. TVV ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS CAREFULLY READ THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND GENERAL RELEASE AND UNDERSTANDS ITS CONTENTS. TVV represents and warrants that (x) there are no liens, or claims of lien, or assignments in law or equity or otherwise of or against any of the claims or causes of action released herein, (y) TVV has not transferred or otherwise alienated any such claims or causes of action, and (z) TVV is fully authorized and entitled to give the releases specified herein.

Article VI

All representations, warranties, agreements and covenants of the parties made herein and in the Schedules hereto shall be deemed to have been relied upon by the party or parties to whom they are made in entering into this Agreement and shall survive the Closing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all representations and warranties set forth in Articles II, III and IV shall survive the Closing until the Expiration Date; provided, however, that the Expiration Date shall not apply to any (a) representations and warranties set forth in Section 2.12 (Tax Matters) or Section 2.21 (Environmental Matters), and in each such case the representations and warranties set forth therein shall survive until the second anniversary of the Closing Date, and (b) any representations and warranties contained in Section 2.1 (Organization and Power), Section 2.2 (Authorization), Section 2.4 (Capitalization), Section 2.11 (Title to and Encumbrance on Properties), Section 2.20 (Investment Banking; Brokerage), Section 3.1 (Stock; Closing Date Payment), Section 3.2 (Authority), or Section 3.4 (Brokers), and in each such case the representations and warranties set forth therein shall survive indefinitely or until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations with respect thereto, as applicable (collectively, the representations and warranties in clause (b) above are referred to herein as the “Fundamental Representations”). All covenants and other agreements set forth herein shall survive indefinitely, unless such covenant or agreement expressly terminates on an earlier date.

Section 6.2 Indemnification.

(a) TVV (a “Seller Indemnifying Party”) hereby agrees to defend, indemnify and hold the Buyer, the Company, and their respective Equity Interest holders, directors, officers, employees, agents, managers, and Affiliates (other than any person who is a Stockholder or the holder of Equity Interests of the Company as of the Closing Date) (parties receiving the benefit of the indemnification agreement under this Section 6.2 shall be referred to collectively as “Buyer Indemnified Parties” and individually as a “Buyer Indemnified Party”) harmless from and against any and all claims, damages, liabilities, losses, fines, penalties, costs, and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees of legal counsel), as the same are incurred, of any kind or nature whatsoever (whether or not arising out of third-party claims and including all amounts paid in investigation, defense or settlement of the foregoing, including, without limitation, the enforcement of any indemnification award hereunder) (collectively “Losses” and each individually, a “Loss”) which may be sustained or suffered by any Buyer Indemnified Party to the extent arising out of:

(i) any breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company or TVV in this Agreement or the Schedules hereto (collectively, “Buyer Warranty Claims”);

(ii) any breach of any obligation, agreement or covenant made by TVV in this Agreement;

(iii) (A) any Taxes on or with respect to the Company for any Pre-Closing Period; (B) any Taxes of the Company pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-6 or any analogous or similar state, local, or foreign law or regulation; (C) any Taxes of any Person imposed on the Company as a transferee or successor, by contract or pursuant to any Law which Taxes relate to an event or transaction occurring on or before the Closing Date; and (D) any breach of any covenant in Section 5.2;

(iv) any claim for indemnification or advancement or reimbursement of expenses made or asserted against the Company by any present or former officer, director and/or employee of the Company who is an Affiliate of TVV, with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by any such officer, director and/or employee of the Company prior to the Closing; or

(v) any fraud by the Company or TVV.

The rights of Buyer Indemnified Parties to recover indemnification in respect of any occurrence referred to in clause (v) of this Section 6.2(a) shall not be limited by the fact that such occurrence may not constitute an inaccuracy in or breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement or in any Schedule hereto. A Buyer Indemnified Party may simultaneously bring multiple claims for indemnity based on one or more legal theories and based upon one or more provisions of this Agreement with respect to the same event, occurrence or set of facts; provided, that any liability for indemnification under this Section 6.2(a) shall be determined without duplication of recovery by reason of the state of facts giving rise to such liability constituting a breach of more than one representation, warranty, covenant or agreement.

(b) The Buyer (the “Buyer Indemnifying Party”) hereby agrees to defend, indemnify and hold TVV and its Affiliates (parties receiving the benefit of the indemnification agreement under this Section 6.2(b) shall be referred to collectively as “Seller Indemnified Parties” and individually as a “Seller Indemnified Party”) harmless from and against any and all Losses which may be sustained or suffered by any such Seller Indemnified Party to the extent arising out of:

(i) any breach of any representation or warranty made by the Buyer in this Agreement (collectively, “Seller Warranty Claims”);

(ii) any breach of any obligation, agreement or covenant, made by the Buyer in this Agreement; or

(iii) any fraud by the Buyer.

The rights of Seller Indemnified Parties to recover indemnification in respect of any occurrence referred to in clause (iii) of this Section 6.2(b) shall not be limited by the fact that such occurrence may not constitute an inaccuracy in or breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement. A Seller Indemnified Party may simultaneously bring multiple claims for indemnity based on one or more legal theories and based upon one or more provisions of this Agreement with respect to the same event, occurrence or set of facts.

(c) Subject to Section 6.1 and Section 6.2(d), the time period for making claims for indemnification with respect to Seller Warranty Claims or Buyer Warranty Claims shall expire and terminate on the Expiration Date; provided, however, that indemnification for any Loss related to any of the representations set forth in Section 6.1(a) shall not expire until the second anniversary of the Closing Date, and indemnification for any Loss related to any of the Fundamental Representations shall either (i) expire on the expiration date of the applicable statute of limitations or (ii) never expire, as applicable. In addition, the period for making indemnification claims under any of Section 6.2(a)(ii) through (v), Section 6.2(b)(ii), or Section 6.2(b)(iii) shall never expire, provided a claim is made prior to any express termination date of any covenant or agreement set forth in such Sections.

(d) If prior to the relevant expiration date set forth in Section 6.2(c), a Seller Indemnified Party or Buyer Indemnified Party shall have given written notice of a claim pursuant to Section 6.3 below, then the right to indemnification with respect to such claim shall survive any applicable expiration date until such claim is finally adjudicated.

(e) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 6.2 to the contrary, the rights of an Indemnified Party to recover indemnification in respect of any claim arising under this Section 6.2 shall be subject to the following limitations:

(i) Neither any Buyer Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, nor any Seller Indemnifying Party, on the other hand, shall have any obligation to indemnify any Seller Indemnified Party or any Buyer Indemnified Party, respectively, pursuant to Section 6.2(a)(i), unless the aggregate of all Losses suffered or incurred by all Buyer Indemnified Parties or Seller Indemnified Parties, as applicable, which would otherwise be subject to indemnification hereunder exceeds $60,000.00 in the aggregate (the “Deductible”), whereupon the total amount of such Losses in excess of the Deductible shall be recoverable in accordance with the terms hereof; provided, however, that the Deductible shall not apply with respect to any claim brought under (A) any of Section 6.2(a)(ii) through Section 6.2(a)(v), (B) Section 6.2(b)(ii) or Section 6.2(b)(iii), or (C) Section 6.2(a)(i) solely with respect to claims for breaches of Fundamental Representations or any representations and warranties set forth in Section 2.12 (Tax Matters) or Section 2.21 (Environmental Matters) (claims under any of clause (A), clause (B) or clause (C) are collectively referred to as “Excluded Claims”).

(ii) Neither any Buyer Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, nor any Seller Indemnifying Party, on the other hand, shall have any obligation to indemnify any Seller Indemnified Party or any Buyer Indemnified Party, respectively, pursuant to Section 6.2(a)(i), for Losses in excess of $500,000.00 (the “Cap”); provided, however, that the Cap shall not apply to Excluded Claims, and (A) indemnification for Losses with respect to Excluded Claims pursuant to Section 6.2(a)(i) solely with respect to claims related to representations and warranties set forth in Section 2.12 (Tax Matters) or Section 2.21 (Environmental Matters) shall be limited to Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000), and (B) indemnification for Losses with respect to Excluded Claims pursuant to Section 6.2(a)(i) solely with respect to claims related to Fundamental Representations or any claim brought under any of Sections 6.2(a)(ii) through Section 6.2(a)(v), or Section 6.2(b)(ii) or Section 6.2(b)(iii), shall be limited to the Purchase Price. Furthermore, for the avoidance of doubt, neither the Deductible nor the Cap shall apply to any post-Closing adjustments pursuant to Section 1.4.

(iii) The liability of TVV for any indemnifiable Loss hereunder shall be limited to 97.07% of the amount of the indemnifiable Loss.

Section 6.3 Notice; Payment of Losses; Defense of Claims.

(a) The term “Indemnifying Party” shall include the Buyer Indemnifying Parties and Seller Indemnifying Parties, as applicable, and the term “Indemnified Party” shall include a Buyer Indemnified Party or Seller Indemnified Party, as applicable. Each Indemnified Party is an express third party beneficiary of this Agreement and shall have each and every legal or equitable right, remedy or claim as set forth under this Agreement and shall be entitled to enforce each such right, remedy or claim, subject to any requirements, conditions or other limitations set forth in this Agreement as if such Person were a party hereto.

(b) An Indemnified Party shall give written notice to the appropriate Indemnifying Party promptly upon learning of any such claim with respect to which such Indemnified Party seeks indemnity hereunder, and in any event not later than thirty (30) days after assertion of any written claim by any third party, specifying in reasonable detail the amount, nature and source of the claim; provided, however, that failure to give such notice shall not limit the right of an Indemnified Party to recover indemnity except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced as a result of such failure and then only to the extent of such material prejudice.

(c) Within twenty (20) days after receiving notice of a claim for indemnification, the Indemnifying Party shall, by written notice to the Indemnified Party, either (i) concede or deny liability for the claim in whole or in part or (ii) in the case of a claim asserted by a third party, advise that the matters set forth in the notice are, or will be, subject to contest or legal proceedings not yet finally resolved. If the Indemnifying Party concedes liability in whole, the Indemnifying Party shall pay the amount of such claim in cash to the Indemnified Party within five (5) business days of notice of such concession. If the Indemnifying Party denies liability in whole or in part or advises that the matters set forth in the notice are, or will be, subject to contest or legal proceedings not yet finally resolved, then the Indemnifying Party shall make no payment until a final resolution of the matter is obtained in accordance with this Agreement. If an Indemnifying Party denies liability in whole or in part, and such matter is finally resolved in favor of the Indemnified Party, such Indemnifying Party shall be liable for (A) the amount of the Losses sustained or suffered by the Indemnified Party plus (B) interest (computed on the basis of a 360-day year/30-day month) on the Losses at a rate per annum of six percent (6%) assessed from the date that is thirty (30) days after the date on which the Indemnifying Party received notice of such Losses from the Indemnified Party under Section 6.3(b). If an Indemnifying Party fails to respond by written notice to the Indemnified Party within twenty (20) days after receiving notice of a claim for indemnification, such Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have conceded liability for the claim in whole and to have irrevocably agreed to pay (A) the amount of the Losses sustained or suffered by the Indemnified Party plus (B) interest (computed on the basis of a 360-day year/30-day month) on the Losses at a rate per annum of six percent (6%) assessed from the date that is thirty (30) days after the date on which the Indemnifying Party received notice of such Losses from the Indemnified Party under Section 6.3(b).

(d) In the case of any third party claim, if within twenty (20) days after receiving the notice of a claim under Section 6.3(b), the Indemnifying Party (i) gives written notice to the Indemnified Party stating that it would be liable under the provisions hereof for indemnity in the amount of such claim if such claim were valid and that it disputes and intends to defend against such claim, liability or expense at its own cost and expense and (ii) provides reasonable assurance to such Indemnified Party that such indemnification will be paid fully and promptly if required and such Indemnified Party will not incur cost or expense during the proceeding, then counsel for the defense shall be selected by the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnifying Party shall control the defense of such claim, subject to the consent of all Indemnified Parties which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, that so long as a conflict of interest does not exist, (A) the Buyer, on behalf of all Buyer Indemnified Parties, hereby approves Bass, Xxxxx & Xxxx, PLC to serve as counsel to any Seller Indemnifying Party, and (B) TVV, on behalf of all Seller Indemnified Parties, hereby approves Neuberger, Quinn, Gielen, Rubin & Gipper, P.A. to serve as counsel to any Buyer Indemnifying Party. The assumption of defense of any such matters by the Indemnifying Party or Parties shall relate solely to the claim, liability or expense that is subject to indemnification. If the Indemnifying Party or Parties assume such defense in accordance with this Section 6.3, they shall have the right, with the consent of such Indemnified Party or Parties, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, to settle all indemnifiable matters related to the claim, liability or expense that is subject to indemnification. The Indemnifying Party or Parties shall keep such Indemnified Party or Parties promptly and reasonably apprised of the status of the claim, liability or expense and any resulting suit, proceeding or enforcement action, shall furnish such Indemnified Party or Parties with all documents and information that such Indemnified Party or Parties shall reasonably request and shall consult with such Indemnified Party or Parties prior to acting on major matters, including settlement discussions. Notwithstanding anything herein stated, such Indemnified Party or Parties shall at all times have the right to fully participate in such defense at its own expense directly or through counsel; provided, however, if the named parties to the action or proceeding include both the Indemnifying Party or Parties and the Indemnified Party or Parties and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate under applicable standards of professional conduct, the reasonable expense of separate counsel for such Indemnified Party or Parties shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party or Parties. If no such notice of intent to dispute and defend is given by the Indemnifying Party or Parties, or if such diligent good faith defense is not being or ceases to be conducted (following delivery of written notice asserting the failure to conduct a diligent and good faith defense and a thirty (30) day opportunity to cure), such Indemnified Party or Parties shall, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party or Parties, undertake the defense of (with counsel selected by such Indemnified Party or Parties), and shall have the right to compromise or settle, such claim, liability or expense. If such claim, liability or expense is one that by its nature cannot be defended solely by the Indemnifying Party or Parties, then such Indemnified Party or Parties shall make available all information and assistance that the Indemnifying Party or Parties may reasonably request and shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party or Parties in such defense.

(e) Notwithstanding any provision in this Section 6.3 to the contrary, no Seller Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume or maintain, as applicable, control of the defense of any third party claim under Section 6.3(d) if any such third party claim (i) seeks non-monetary relief, (ii) involves criminal allegations, (iii) involves Losses that are not expected to exceed the Deductible (to the extent indemnity payments for such Losses are subject to the Deductible), (iv) involves Losses that are reasonably expected to exceed the maximum amount for which the Seller Indemnifying Parties could be liable under this Article VI, (v) involves Taxes, or (vi) is one in which the Buyer Indemnified Party reasonably believes an adverse determination with respect thereto could be materially detrimental to the reputation or future business prospects of any Buyer Indemnified Party.

(f) Subject to the terms of the Escrow Agreement, the Escrow Amount will be available to compensate the Buyer Indemnified Parties for Losses for which such Buyer Indemnified Parties are entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 6.2.

Section 6.4 Characterization of Indemnity Payments. Any indemnification payments made pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered, to the extent permissible under Law, as adjustments to the Purchase Price for all Tax purposes.

Section 6.5 Limitation on Contribution and Certain Other Rights; No Circular Indemnity; Waiver of Rights. TVV (on behalf of itself and its Affiliates and Representatives) hereby agrees that if, following the Closing, any payment is made by TVV, or otherwise becomes due from TVV pursuant to Section 1.4, this Article VI or relating to fraud, fraud in the inducement, intentional misrepresentation or relating to the pursuit of equitable remedies, including, but not limited to, specific performance and injunctive relief, in respect of any Loss (each a “Loss Payment”), neither TVV nor any Affiliate or Representative of TVV shall have any rights against any Buyer Indemnified Party, whether by reason of contribution, indemnification, subrogation or otherwise, in respect of any such Loss Payment, it being understood that for the purposes of this Section 6.5 neither Xxxxxx nor Xxxxxxxxxx shall be deemed to be a Buyer Indemnified Party by virtue of their being an Equity Interest holder of the Buyer. TVV (on behalf of itself and its Affiliates and Representatives) hereby further agrees that neither TVV nor any Affiliate or Representative of TVV will make any claim for indemnification against the Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including the Company), or any director, officer or employee of any of the foregoing, under the organizational documents of the Company by reason of the fact that TVV (or any Affiliate or Representative of TVV) is or was an Equity Interest holder, director, officer, manager or agent of the Company or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a member, director, officer, partner, trustee or agent of another entity (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 statute, charter document, by-law, agreement or otherwise) with respect to any action, suit, proceeding, complaint, claim or demand brought by any of the Buyer Indemnified Parties against any Seller Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise relating thereto.

Section 6.6 Exclusivity of Indemnification. The parties hereto agree that, except as set forth in Section 1.4 and Section 5.2, the indemnification provisions of this Article VI are intended to provide the exclusive remedy for money damages as to all Losses that they may incur arising from or relating to the transactions contemplated hereby and any other Transaction Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this 0 shall not be interpreted to limit the rights or remedies of any party hereto in the case of fraud, fraud in the inducement, intentional misrepresentation or in respect of the pursuit of equitable remedies, including, but not limited to, specific performance and injunctive relief.

Whenever the words “include”, “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they will be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” Where the context permits, the use of the term “or” will be non-exclusive and equivalent to the use of the term “and/or.” The words “hereof,” “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement will refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement.

The definitions contained in this Agreement are applicable to the singular as well as the plural forms of such terms and to the masculine as well as to the feminine and neuter genders of such term.

Section 7.10 Specific Performance. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage could occur in the event that any of the covenants in this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of the covenants set forth in this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of the covenants hereof in accordance with Section 7.11. Such remedies shall not be exclusive and shall be in addition to any other remedies that any party may have under Article VI.

Except as for all disputes, claims, or controversies arising out of Section 1.4 (Post-Closing Adjustments) (which disputes, claims, or controversies shall be resolved exclusively as set forth in Section 1.4), all disputes, claims, or controversies arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Agreements or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the negotiation, validity or performance hereof or thereof that are not resolved by mutual agreement shall only be brought in the federal courts situated in the County of Xxxxxx in the State of Indiana (including the appropriate appellate courts therefrom). Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of such federal courts to resolve all such disputes, claims or controversies and further consents to the jurisdiction of such federal courts for the purposes of enforcing the provisions of Section 1.4; provided, however, that to the extent necessary to avoid irreparable harm, any party may seek temporary or preliminary injunctive relief in accordance with Section 7.10 in any court of competent jurisdiction. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHTS SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH disputes, claims or controversies.

Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that its submission to jurisdiction and its consent to service of process by mail are made for the express benefit of the other parties hereto.

Section 7.12 Mutual Drafting. The parties hereto are sophisticated and have been represented by attorneys throughout the transactions contemplated hereby who have carefully negotiated the provisions hereof.

Section 7.14 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed and delivered by facsimile signature or portable document format (PDF) by electronic mail and in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

Section 7.15 Amendments, Waivers and Consents. For the purposes of this Agreement and all agreements executed pursuant hereto, no course of dealing between or among any of the parties hereto and no delay on the part of any party hereto in exercising any rights hereunder or thereunder shall operate as a waiver of the rights hereof and thereof. No provision hereof may be waived otherwise than by a written instrument signed by the party or parties so waiving such covenant or other provision. Waiver of any term or condition of this Agreement by a party shall not be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach or waiver of the same term or condition by such party, or a waiver of any other term or condition of this Agreement by such party. No amendment to this Agreement may be made without the written consent of TVV, the Company and the Buyer.
