Section 408 of ERISA, or other breach of fiduciary responsibility, has occurred with respect to any Company Employee Plan that could reasonably be expected to subject the Company (or any officer, director or employee thereof) to any Tax, penalty or other Liability.

No Company Employee Plan provides, or reflects or represents any liability to provide, retiree life insurance, retiree health or other retiree employee welfare benefits to any person for any reason, except as may be required by COBRA or other applicable statute.

(f) The execution of this Agreement and the Related Documents and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby shall not (either alone or in connection with any additional or subsequent events) constitute an event under any Company Employee Plan, trust or loan that will or could reasonably be expected to result in any payment (whether of severance pay or otherwise), acceleration, forgiveness of indebtedness, vesting, distribution, increase in benefits or obligation to fund benefits to or with respect to any employee of the Company.

7.5 Limitations on Indemnification Payments to the Seller Indemnitees. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the right of Seller Indemnitees to indemnification is limited as follows:

(c) The Seller Indemnitees shall be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 7.2(a) if and only if (i) with respect to any individual Loss, such individual Loss is greater than the Mini-Deductible, and (ii) the aggregate amount of all indemnifiable claims pursuant to Section 7.2(a) exceeds the Deductible and, in such event, indemnification shall be made by Buyer for all corresponding Losses in excess of the Deductible.

(d) The amount of any Losses for which Buyer is required to indemnify Seller Indemnitees pursuant to this Agreement shall be reduced by any realized Tax benefit of the Seller Indemnitees’ Taxes arising from the claim, loss or damage for which the indemnity is being paid.

(e) The aggregate maximum liability of Buyer for indemnification pursuant to Section 7.2(a) shall be an amount equal to the Cap; provided, however, that the Cap shall not apply to Losses incurred by Seller Indemnitees based upon any breach of or inaccuracy Section 5.1 and Section 5.2, with respect to which the aggregate maximum liability of the Company and the Stockholders shall be equal to $12,000,000.

7.6 Procedures.

(e) Notice of Losses by Seller Indemnitees. Subject to the limitations set forth in this Article IX, as soon as reasonably practicable after a Seller Indemnitee reasonably believes in good faith that he or it has, or based on facts or circumstances then in existence reasonably believes in good faith that he or it will have, a claim for indemnification under this Article IX (a “Seller Claim”), the Seller Representative shall give written notice thereof (a “Seller Claims Notice”) to Buyer. A Seller Claims Notice must describe a Seller Claim in reasonable detail, and indicate the amount (estimated, as necessary) of the Loss that has been or is reasonably expected to be suffered by the applicable Seller Indemnitee. No delay in or failure to give a Seller Claims Notice by the Seller Representative to Buyer pursuant to this Section 7.6(a) shall adversely affect the applicable Seller Indemnitee’s right to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement except to the extent Buyer is materially prejudiced thereby. Buyer shall respond to the Seller Representative (a “Claim Response”) within thirty (30) days (the “Response Period”) after the date that a Seller Claims Notice is received by Buyer. Any Claim Response must specify whether or not Buyer disputes a Seller Claim described in Seller Claims Notice. If Buyer fails to give a Claim Response within the Response Period, Buyer shall be deemed not to dispute a Seller Claim described in the related Seller Claims Notice. If Buyer elects not to dispute a Seller Claim described in a Seller Claims Notice, whether by failing to give a timely Claim Response or otherwise, then the amount of Losses alleged in such Seller Claims Notice shall be conclusively deemed to be an obligation of Buyer, and Buyer shall pay, in cash, to the Seller Representative within five (5) days after the last day of the applicable Response Period the amount specified in Seller Claims Notice. If Buyer delivers a Claim Response within the Response Period indicating that it disputes one or more of the matters identified in Seller Claims Notice, Buyer and the Seller Representative shall promptly meet and use their reasonable efforts to settle the dispute. If Buyer and the Seller Representative are able to reach agreement with respect to all or any portion of Losses, within thirty (30) days after the conclusion of the Response Period, the amount of Losses, if any, agreed upon shall conclusively be deemed an obligation of Buyer, and Buyer shall pay in cash to the Seller Representative within five (5) days of such agreement the amount of Losses so agreed upon. If Buyer and the Seller Representative are unable to reach agreement within thirty (30) days after the conclusion of the Response Period, then either Buyer or the Seller Representative may commence an Action to seek resolution of such Seller Claim, subject to the limitations set forth in this Article IX.

(f) Notice of Losses by Buyer Indemnitees. Subject to the limitations set forth in this Article IX, as soon as reasonably practicable after a Buyer Indemnitee reasonably believes in good faith that he, she or it has, or based on facts or circumstances then in existence reasonably believes in good faith that he, she or it will have, a claim for indemnification under this Article IX (a “Buyer Claim”), Buyer shall give written notice thereof (a “Buyer Claims Notice” and, together with a Seller Claims Notice, a “Notice”) to the Seller Representative. A Buyer Claims Notice must describe a Buyer Claim in reasonable detail and indicate the amount (estimated, as necessary) of the Loss that has been or is reasonably expected to be suffered by the applicable Buyer Indemnitee, all to the extent known. No delay in or failure to give a Buyer Claims Notice by Buyer to the Seller Representative pursuant to this Section 7.6(b) shall adversely affect the applicable Buyer Indemnitee’s right to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement except to the extent any of the Company or the Stockholders are materially prejudiced thereby. If Buyer has not received from the Seller Representative notice in writing that the Seller Representative objects to Buyer Claim (or the amount of Losses set forth in Buyer Claims Notice) asserted in such Buyer Claims Notice

(a “Dispute Notice”) by the thirtieth (30^th) day following receipt by the Seller Representative of Buyer Claims Notice (the “Dispute Period”), then the amount of Losses alleged in such Buyer Claims Notice shall be conclusively deemed to be a joint and several obligation of the Company and the Stockholders, and Buyer and the Seller Representative shall instruct the Escrow Agent in writing to, and the Escrow Agent shall, pay to Buyer from the Escrow Account the amount of Losses specified in Buyer Claims Notice subject to the limitations contained in this Article IX. If (i) such Buyer Claims Notice is delivered to the Seller Representative after the Representation Termination Date with respect to claims which survive such date, or (ii) to the extent such Buyer Claims Notice contemplates Losses in excess of Escrow Funds then available in the Escrow Account (after giving effect to any other pending claims under this Article IX and after deduction from such amount of any pending or potential claims under Section 2.3), and if, during the Dispute Period, Buyer has not received from the Seller Representative a Dispute Notice, then the amount of Losses alleged in such Buyer Claims Notice in excess of amounts, if any, payable from Escrow Funds shall be deemed to be a joint and several obligation of the Company and the Stockholders, and Buyer may recover such amount from the Company and/or any or all Stockholders in the aggregate in cash, within five (5) days of Buyer’s request, subject to the limitations contained in this Article IX.

(g) Resolution of Buyer Claims. If the Seller Representative delivers a Dispute Notice to Buyer within the Dispute Period, Buyer and the Seller Representative shall promptly meet and use their reasonable efforts to settle the dispute. If Buyer and the Seller Representative are able to reach agreement within thirty (30) days after Buyer receives such Dispute Notice, and to the extent the amount of the Escrow Funds (after giving effect to any other pending claims under this Article IX and after deduction from such amount of any pending or potential claims under Section 2.3) equal or exceed the amount of the Losses agreed to be paid with respect to Buyer Claims Notice, then Buyer and the Seller Representative shall deliver a joint written instruction to the Escrow Agent setting forth such agreement and instructing the Escrow Agent to pay to Buyer such amount from the Escrow Account. To the extent the amount of such agreed upon Losses exceeds the amount of the Escrow Funds (after giving effect to any other pending claims under this Article IX and after deduction from such amount of any pending or potential claims under Section 2.3) then available in the Escrow Account, then such excess shall be deemed to be a joint and several obligation of the Company and each of the Stockholders, and Buyer may recover from the Company and/or any Stockholders in the aggregate such excess amount in cash, within five (5) days of Buyer’s request, subject to the limitations set forth in this Article IX. If Buyer and the Seller Representative are unable to reach agreement within thirty (30) days after Buyer receives any Dispute Notice, then either Buyer or the Seller Representative (in the names and for the benefit of the Company and the Stockholders, as applicable) may commence an Action to seek resolution of such Buyer Claim, and to be paid amounts due hereunder, as provided herein, subject to the limitations set forth in this Article IX. For all purposes of this Article IX, Buyer and the Seller Representative shall cooperate with and make available to the other party and its representatives all information, records and data, and shall permit reasonable access to its facilities and personnel, as may be reasonably required in connection with the resolution of such disputes.

(h) Opportunity to Defend Third-Party Claims. In the event of any claim by a third party against a Buyer Indemnitee or Seller Indemnitee for which indemnification is available hereunder, the Seller Representative, if indemnification of Buyer Indemnitees is available,

or Buyer, if indemnification of Seller Indemnitees is available (each an “Indemnifying Party”), has the right, exercisable by written notice to Buyer or the Seller Representative, as applicable, within sixty (60) days of receipt of a Notice from Buyer or the Seller Representative, as applicable, to assume and conduct the defense of such claim (in the names of, and for the benefit of, the Indemnified Party) with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party and reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party; provided, that the Indemnifying Party shall not be permitted to assume or conduct the defense of any claim if the Indemnified Party is also a party to the Action, there is a conflict of interest between the positions of the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party in conducting the defense of such claims such that there may be one or more legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnified Party shall have determined in good faith that such different or additional defenses would make it inappropriate for the Indemnifying Party to assume or conduct the defense of such claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Indemnified Party reasonably determines in good faith that there is a reasonable probability that an Action to defend a third-party claim may adversely affect him, her or its or his, her or its Affiliates other than as a result of monetary damages for which he, she or it would be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party may, by notice to the Indemnifying Party, assume the right to defend, compromise or settle such Action, but the Indemnifying Party shall not be bound by any determination of an Action so defended or any compromise or settlement effected without its consent (which may not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled, at the Indemnifying Party’s cost and expense, to participate in the defense of the third-party claim. If the Indemnifying Party has assumed such defense as provided in this Section 7.6(d), the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by any Indemnified Party in connection with the defense of such claim; provided, that if the Indemnified Party determines in good faith that there would be a violation of applicable legal ethical principles and policies if one counsel represents both parties, the Indemnified Party shall be entitled, at the Indemnifying Party’s cost, risk and expense, to retain one firm of separate counsel of his, her or its own choosing (along with any required local counsel) to participate in the defense of the third-party claim. Any additional counsel selected by an Indemnified Party pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall be reasonably acceptable to the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party elects to assume the defense of a claim, the Indemnified Party may, at its own cost and expense, participate in the investigation, trial and defense of such claim. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of any third-party claim in accordance with this Section 7.6(d) within fourteen (14) days after delivery of a Buyer Claims Notice in connection with any such claim, the Indemnified Party may defend such claim at the sole cost of the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnified Party shall not consent to a settlement of any such claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Except with the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), no Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such claim, shall consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that (i) provides for injunctive or other nonmonetary relief adversely affecting the Indemnified Party, (ii) includes a finding or admission of a violation of Law or the rights of any third party or which would otherwise form the basis of liability to any third party or (iii) does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by each claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability with respect to such claim or litigation. In any such third-party claim, the party responsible for the defense of such claim (the “Responsible Party”) shall, to the

extent reasonably requested by the other party, keep such other party informed as to the status of such claim, including, without limitation, all settlement negotiations and offers.

(i) Releases from the Escrow Account. The funds held under the Escrow Agreement shall be released in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Escrow Agreement.

7.7 Additional Indemnification Provisions.

(d) Each party’s obligation under this Agreement is unique. If any party should breach his or its covenants under this Agreement, the parties each acknowledge that it would be impracticable to measure the resulting damages; accordingly, the nonbreaching party or parties, in addition to any other available rights or remedies they may have under the terms of this Agreement, may xxx in equity for specific performance, and each party expressly waives the defense that a remedy in damages will be adequate.

(e) All indemnification payments made pursuant to this Article IX shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price unless otherwise required by Law.

(f) The parties hereto hereby consent to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any court in which a claim is brought against any Buyer Indemnitee for purposes of any claim that any Buyer Indemnitee may have under this Agreement with respect to such claim or the matters alleged therein, and agree that process may be served on them with respect to such a claim anywhere in the world.

(g) The provisions of this Article IX shall be enforceable regardless of the basis on which Liability is asserted, including strict liability.

(h) If any remediation or other cleanup (collectively, “Cleanup”) at any Real Property is required and the Company and the Stockholders are responsible in whole or part therefor under this Article IX, then (i) such Cleanup shall be performed so as to minimize any suspension, interference or other disruption of Buyer’s operations, and (ii) Buyer shall have the right to approve the detailed plan to effect the Cleanup, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, including the Persons who will perform the Cleanup, and the Cleanup shall not be initiated without Buyer’s prior written consent, provided that the Company and the Stockholders shall have no obligation to effect any Cleanup beyond that required by Law except to the extent any Cleanup is also the subject of any representation or warranty hereunder.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Buyer Indemnitees shall have any right to indemnification under this Article IX with respect to any Loss if and to the extent such Loss (i) is for an item included on, or is a liability reserved or accrued for in the Final Working Capital Statement or the Closing Working Capital (or any component thereof) (as finally agreed upon or determined pursuant to Section 2.3(b)), or (ii) is otherwise already taken into account in the calculation of any adjustment to the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 2.3.

(j) No Indemnified Party shall have any right to assert any claim against any Indemnifying Party hereunder with respect to any Loss, cause of action or other claim to the extent such Loss, cause of action or claim is a Loss, cause of action or claim with respect to which such Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates has taken action (or caused action to be taken) with the intent of accelerating the time period in which such matter is asserted or payable in order to cause a claim to be made prior to the survival date applicable to such Loss pursuant to Section 7.1.

(k) For all purposes of this Article IX, “Losses” shall be net of any amounts paid or payable to an Indemnified Party under any insurance policy or Contract in connection with the facts giving rise to the right of indemnification hereunder.

ARTICLE VIII

(f) The Seller Representative is hereby constituted and appointed as agent and attorney-in-fact for and on behalf of the Company and the Stockholders.

(h) From and after the Closing Date, Buyer and the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to deal exclusively with the Seller Representative on all matters pertaining to the rights and obligations of the Company and the Stockholders under this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement. A decision, act, consent or instruction of the Seller Representative constitutes a decision of the

Any agreement to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in a writing signed by the Seller Representative and Buyer.

8.10 Governing Law; Forum.

(a) This Agreement is to be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of Michigan, without regard to its rules of conflict of laws.

(b) Any Action brought by any party or any of its Affiliates arising in whole or in part under or in connection with this Agreement or any Related Document may only be instituted in a federal or state court in Oakland County, Michigan, and each party waives any claim or objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such proceeding, and agrees not to assert that venue should properly lie in any other location.

(c) Each party hereby (i) consents to service of process in any Action between or among the parties arising in whole or in part under or in connection with this Agreement or any Related Document in any manner permitted by Michigan law, (ii) agrees that service of

process made in accordance with clause (i) or made by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, at its address specified pursuant to Section 8.5 above, shall constitute good and valid service of process in any such Action, and (iii) waives and agrees not to assert (by way of motion, as a defense, or otherwise) in any such Action any claim that service of process made in accordance with clause (i) or (ii) does not constitute good and valid service of process.

8.11 Waiver of Jury Trial. TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW THAT CANNOT BE WAIVED, THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE, AND COVENANT THAT THEY WILL NOT ASSERT (WHETHER AS PLAINTIFF, DEFENDANT OR OTHERWISE), ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION ARISING IN WHOLE OR IN PART UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY RELATED DOCUMENT, WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT ANY OF THEM MAY FILE A COPY OF THIS PARAGRAPH WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE KNOWING, VOLUNTARY AND BARGAINED-FOR AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES IRREVOCABLY TO WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY PROCEEDING WHATSOEVER BETWEEN THEM RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY RELATED DOCUMENT AND THAT ANY SUCH PROCEEDING WILL INSTEAD BE TRIED IN A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION BY A JUDGE SITTING WITHOUT A JURY.

8.12 Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without rendering invalid or unenforceable the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction. If any provision of this Agreement is so broad as to be unenforceable, the provision shall be interpreted to be only so broad as is enforceable.

8.13 Schedules. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Schedules to this Agreement or any cover page thereto, to the extent any one or more provisions in any Schedule conflicts with the provisions of this Agreement (including this Section 8.13) the provisions of this Section 8.13 and the other provisions of this Agreement shall control (including, without limitation, that no effect shall be given to any purported materiality or knowledge qualifications in any of the Schedules). The disclosure of any matter, or reference to any Contract, in any Schedule to this Agreement shall not be deemed to constitute an admission by Buyer, the Company, the Stockholders or Seller Representative or otherwise imply that any such matter or Contract is material for the purposes of this Agreement and shall not affect the interpretation of such term for the purposes of this Agreement. In particular, (a) certain matters may be disclosed on the Schedules that may not be required to be disclosed because of certain minimum thresholds or materiality standards set forth in this Agreement, (b) the disclosure of any such matter does not mean that it meets or surpasses any such minimum thresholds or materiality standards and (c) no disclosure in the Schedules relating to any possible breach or violation of any Contract or Law shall be construed as an admission or indication that any such breach or violation exists or has actually occurred. In no event shall the listing of such matters in any Schedule be deemed or interpreted to expand the scope of the Company’s or Stockholders representations and warranties contained in this Agreement. Each

Schedule is qualified in its entirety by reference to specific provisions of this Agreement and does not constitute, and shall not be construed as constituting, representations, warranties or covenants of Buyer, the Company, the Stockholders or the Seller Representative or their respective Affiliates, except as and to the extent provided in this Agreement. Matters reflected in a Schedule are not necessarily limited to matters or Contracts required by this Agreement to be disclosed in such Schedules. Regardless of the existence or absence of cross-references, the disclosure of any matter in any Schedule shall be deemed to be a disclosure for purposes of this Agreement and each Schedule to the extent that the relevance of such disclosure is readily apparent from its text. The section headings in the Schedules are for convenience of reference only and shall not be deemed to alter or affect the meaning or interpretation of any information disclosed herein or any provision of this Agreement. All attachments to the Schedules are incorporated by reference into the Schedule in which they are directly or indirectly referenced. The information contained in the Schedules is in all events subject to the Confidentiality Agreement.

8.14 Exclusive Remedy. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, except in the case of actual and intentional fraud, the rights and remedies of Buyer, The Company, Buyer Indemnitees and Seller Indemnitees under this Agreement and the Related Agreements are exclusive and in lieu of any and all other rights and remedies which Buyer, The Company, Buyer Indemnitees and Seller Indemnitees may have under this Agreement or otherwise against each other with respect to this Agreement and with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, and with respect to the Purchased Assets; and Buyer, The Company, Buyer Indemnitees and Seller Indemnitees each expressly waives and releases and agrees to waive and release any and all other rights or causes of action it or its Affiliates may have against the other party or its Affiliates now or in the future under any Law with respect to the preceding matters.

8.15 Joint Drafting. The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and the other agreements and documents to be executed by the parties in connection herewith. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement and the other agreements and documents to be executed by the parties hereto in connection herewith shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement and the other agreements and documents to be executed by the parties in connection with this Agreement.

8.16 Specific Performance. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that the rights of each party to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby are unique and recognize and affirm that in the event of a breach of this Agreement by any party, money damages may be inadequate and the non-breaching party may have no adequate remedy at law. Accordingly, the parties hereto agree that such non-breaching party shall have the right, in addition to any other rights and remedies existing in their favor at law or in equity, to enforce its rights and the breaching party’s obligations hereunder not only by an action or actions for damages but also by an action or actions for specific performance, injunctive and/or other equitable relief (without posting of bond or other security).

8.17 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, and counterpart signature pages may be delivered by PDF format, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which shall constitute but one instrument.

8.18 Confidentiality. From and after the Closing Date, the Company and the Stockholders shall treat and hold as confidential, and not use or disclose any of the Confidential Information to any Person, except to pursue its or his rights under this Agreement or the Related Documents and the performance of the respective duties under the Employment Agreement. In the event that the Company or any Stockholder is required by Law to disclose any Confidential Information, the Company or Stockholder shall notify Buyer promptly of the request or requirement so that Buyer may seek, at its expense, an appropriate protective order or waive compliance with the provisions of this Section 8.18. Upon the request and at the expense of Buyer, the Company and the Stockholders shall assist Buyer in obtaining such protective order. If, in the absence of a protective order or the receipt of a waiver hereunder the Company or Stockholder is compelled to disclose any Confidential Information to any Governmental Authority or else stand liable for contempt, the Company or Stockholder may disclose the Confidential Information to the Governmental Authority; provided, however, that the Company or Stockholder shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, at the request, and at the expense, of Buyer, an Order or other assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such portion of the Confidential Information required to be disclosed as Buyer shall designate. As used herein, “Confidential Information” shall mean any nonpublic or confidential information relating to Buyer, its Affiliates, the Products, the Business or the Purchased Assets, except to the extent that such information shall have become public knowledge other than through improper disclosure by the Company or any Stockholder.
