The Stockholders hereby acknowledge and agree that neither the release provided hereunder nor the furnishing of the consideration for the release given hereunder will be deemed or construed at any time to be an admission by any released party or Releasor of any improper or unlawful conduct. The Stockholders hereby irrevocably covenants to refrain from, directly or indirectly, asserting any claim, or commencing, instituting or causing to be commenced, any action, proceeding, charge, complaint, or investigation of any kind against any of the released parties, in any forum whatsoever (including any administrative agency), that is based upon any claim purported to be released hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in this release, it is understood and agreed that the release given herein does not prohibit any Releasor from filing an administrative charge with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission or similar equal employment opportunity/anti-discrimination administrative agency (federal, state or local). The Stockholders, however, waive any right to monetary or other recovery in connection with any such charge and/or in the event any such federal, state or local administrative agency pursues any claims on the Stockholders’ behalf or otherwise in connection with any such charge or relating to the Stockholders’ employment with the Companies or any successor or assign. This release may be pleaded by any released party as a full and complete defense regarding any matter purported to be released hereby and may be used as the basis for an injunction against any action at law or equity instituted or maintained against them regarding such matter in violation of this Agreement. In the event any claim is brought or maintained by a Releasor against any released party in violation of this Agreement, the Stockholders shall be responsible for all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by the released parties in defending same. The Stockholders expressly acknowledge that the release contained herein applies to all Claims, regardless of whether such Claims are known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, existing or prospective, and include Claims which, if known by the releasing party, might materially affect its decision to enter into this Section 6.3 (other than the Excluded Claims). The Stockholders have considered and taken into account the possible existence of such Claims in determining to execute and deliver this Agreement.

6.4 Non-Competition/Non-Solicitation.

(a) The Stockholders, is their individual capacity or through any of their Affiliates shall not, directly or indirectly, for a period of four (4) years after the Closing Date, engage (whether as owner, employee, operator, manager, consultant or otherwise) anywhere in the world in any business that competes with the business of the Companies, the Purchaser or any of their respective Affiliates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Stockholders and their Affiliates shall not be prohibited by this Section 6.5(a) from acquiring or owning less than one percent (1%) of the outstanding voting power of any publicly traded company on a passive basis.

(b) The Stockholders and their Affiliates shall not, nor shall they permit any of their Affiliates to, directly or indirectly, for a period of four (4) years after the Closing Date, (i) other than for the benefit of the Companies or the Purchaser, solicit, call upon, divert, take away, attempt to induce, or accept or conduct any business from or with, any customer, supplier, agent or distributor of the Companies, the Purchaser or any of their respective Affiliates, or cause any such customer, supplier, agent or distributor to terminate or adversely affect or materially reduce their business relationship with the Companies, the Purchaser or any of their respective Affiliates, or (ii) contact, solicit or approach for the purpose of offering employment to, or hire (whether as an employee, consultant, agent, independent contractor or otherwise), any employee employed or full-time consultant engaged by the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including the Companies) during the one (1) year period preceding such contact, solicitation or approach (provided, that the foregoing clause shall not prohibit the Stockholders or their Affiliates from making a general solicitation not targeting any such employee or consultant).

(c) The Stockholders, for themselves and on behalf of their Affiliates, agree that the scope of the restrictive provisions set forth in this Section 6.4 are reasonable with respect to subject matter, time and scope and that the provisions contained in this Section 6.4 are a material inducement to the Purchaser’s entering into this Agreement and but for the provisions contained in this Section 6.4, the Purchaser would not have entered into this Agreement. In the event that any court determines that the subject matter, duration or geographic scope, or all of the foregoing, is unreasonable and that such provision is to that extent unenforceable, the Purchaser and the Stockholders, for itself or themselves and on behalf of each of their or its Affiliates, agree that the provision shall remain in full force and effect for the greatest time period and for the broadest subject matter and in the greatest area, as the case may be, that would not render it unenforceable. It is specifically understood and agreed that any breach of the provisions of this Section 6.4 by the Stockholders or any of their Affiliates will result in irreparable injury to the Purchaser, that the remedy at law alone will be an inadequate remedy for such breach and that, in addition to any other remedy it may have, the Purchaser shall be entitled to enforce the specific performance of this Section 6.4 by the Stockholders and their Affiliates through both temporary and permanent injunctive relief without the necessity of proving actual damages and without posting a bond, but without limitation of the Purchaser’s right to damages and any and all other remedies available to the Purchaser, it being understood that injunctive relief is in addition to, and not in lieu of, such other remedies. Should the Stockholders breach Section 6.4(a) or 6.4(b) above, the term of the restrictions set forth in Section 6.4(a) or 6.4(b), as applicable, shall be tolled by the duration of such breach. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the restrictions set forth in this Section 6.4 are independent of and in addition to any restrictions set forth in any Contract between the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including the Companies), on the one hand, and the Stockholders, on the other hand (including the remainder of this Agreement). The Stockholders acknowledge and agree that they have received, or are receiving, substantial consideration in connection with the Transactions. No breach by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates of any contractual or other obligations it or they have to the Stockholders shall constitute a defense, or a limitation of, the enforcement of this Section 6.4 against the Stockholders. If the Stockholders violate this Section 6.4, in addition to all other remedies available to the Purchaser at law, in equity, and under contract, the Stockholders agree that the Stockholders shall pay the Purchaser’s costs of enforcement of this Section 6.4, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses.

(a) The Purchaser Indemnified Parties, on the one hand, or the Stockholders, on the other hand (each, an “Indemnified Party”), shall not be entitled to any recovery resulting from Section 8.2(a)(i) or Section 8.2(b)(i), respectively, until such time (if at all) as the total amount of all Losses that have been suffered or incurred by any one or more of such Indemnified Parties with respect to such matters exceeds $50,000 in the aggregate; and in such event, the Purchaser Indemnified Parties or the Stockholders, as the case may be, shall, subject to the limitations set forth in the remaining subsections of this Section 8.3, be entitled to be indemnified against and compensated and reimbursed to the extent all Losses from the first Dollar thereof; provided, that the limitations set forth in this Section 8.3(a) shall not apply to any indemnification claims relating to any breach (or an allegation that would amount to a breach in the case of a third party claim) of any representation or warranty that involves fraud or Willful Breach (including pursuant to Section 8.2(a)(iii) or Section 8.2(b)(iii)).

(b) The Purchaser Indemnified Parties’ right to indemnification pursuant to this Article VIII on account of any Losses will be reduced by all insurance of the Company or other third party indemnification or contribution proceeds actually received by the Company in respect of those Losses, net of applicable costs and expenses involved in seeking such recovery (including increases in premiums relating thereto). The applicable Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall remit to the Stockholders, for the benefit of the Stockholders, any such insurance or other third party proceeds that are paid to such Purchaser Indemnified Parties with respect to such Losses for which such Purchaser Indemnified Parties have been previously indemnified pursuant to this Article VIII.

8.4 Claims for Indemnification; Resolution of Conflicts.

(a) Making a Claim for Indemnification; Officer’s Certificate. The Stockholders or a Purchaser Indemnified Party may seek recovery of Losses pursuant to this Article VIII by delivering to the Purchaser or the Stockholders, as applicable, an Officer’s Certificate in respect of such claim. The date of such delivery of an Officer’s Certificate is referred to herein as the “Claim Date” of such Officer’s Certificate (and the claims for indemnification contained therein). For purposes hereof, “Officer’s Certificate” means a certificate signed by any authorized representative of an Indemnified Party (or, in the case of an Indemnified Party who is an individual, signed by such individual) stating that an Indemnified Party has paid, sustained, incurred, or accrued, or reasonably anticipates that it will have to pay, sustain, incur or accrue Losses and including, to the extent reasonably practicable, a non-binding, preliminary estimate of the amounts of such Losses; provided, that the Officer’s Certificate need only specify such information to the knowledge of such officer or such Indemnified Party as of the Claim Date, shall not limit any of the rights or remedies of any Indemnified Party, and may be updated and amended from time to time by the Indemnified Party by delivering an updated or amended Officer’s Certificate to the Stockholders or the Purchaser, as applicable.

(b) Objecting to a Claim for Indemnification.

(i) The Stockholders or the Purchaser, as applicable, may object, in whole or in part, to a claim for indemnification set forth in an Officer’s Certificate by delivering to the Indemnified Party seeking indemnification a written statement of objection to the claim made in the Officer’s Certificate (an “Objection Notice”); provided, that, to be effective, such Objection Notice must (A) be delivered to the Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 10.1 prior to 5:00 p.m. Memphis, Tennessee time on the thirtieth (30th) day following the Claim Date of the Officer’s Certificate (such deadline, the “Objection Deadline” for such Officer’s Certificate and the claims for indemnification contained therein) and (B) set forth in reasonable detail the nature of the objections to the claim in respect of which the objection is made.

(ii) To the extent the Stockholders or Purchaser, as applicable, does not object in writing (as provided in Section 8.4(b)(i)) to the claims contained in an Officer’s Certificate prior to the Objection Deadline for such Officer’s Certificate, such failure to so object shall be an irrevocable acknowledgment by the Stockholders or the Purchaser, as applicable, that the Indemnified Party is entitled to the full amount of the claims for Losses set forth in such Officer’s Certificate (and such entitlement shall be conclusively and irrefutably established) with respect to the applicable Indemnifying Parties (any such claim, an “Unobjected Claim”). Within thirty (30) days of a claim becoming an Unobjected Claim, the Indemnifying Parties shall make the applicable payment to such Indemnified Party, subject to Sections 8.4(f) and 8.5.

(c) Resolution of Conflicts. In case the Stockholder or the Purchaser, as applicable, timely delivers an Objection Notice in accordance with Section 8.4(c) hereof, the Stockholder or the Purchaser, as applicable, and the applicable Indemnified Parties shall attempt in good faith to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of such claims. If the Stockholder or the Purchaser, as applicable, and the Indemnified Parties reach an agreement, a memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by all applicable parties (any claims covered by such an agreement, “Settled Claims”). Any amounts required to be paid as a result of a Settled Claim shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Parties pursuant to the Settled Claim within thirty (30) days of the applicable claim becoming a Settled Claim, subject to Sections 8.4(f) and 8.5. If the Stockholder or the Purchaser, as applicable, and the Indemnified Parties are unable to reach an agreement, the matter specified in the Objection Notice shall be resolved pursuant to Section 10.8 (any claims resolved pursuant thereto, “Resolved Claims”).

(d) Payable and Unresolved Claims. A “Payable Claim” means a claim for indemnification of Losses under this Article VIII, to the extent that such claim has not yet been satisfied, that is (i) a Resolved Claim, (ii) a Settled Claim, or (iii) an Unobjected Claim. An “Unresolved Claim” means any claim for indemnification of Losses under this Article VIII specified in any Officer’s Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 8.4(b), to the extent that such claim is not a Payable Claim and has not been satisfied.

8.5 Third Party Claims. If the Purchaser becomes aware of a third party claim (a “Third Party Claim”) which the Purchaser reasonably believes may result in a claim for indemnification by a Purchaser Indemnified Party pursuant to this Article VIII, the Purchaser shall notify the Stockholders promptly of such claim, and the Stockholders shall be entitled, at their expense, to participate in, but not to determine or conduct, the defense of such Third Party Claim. If there is a Third Party Claim that, if adversely determined, would give rise to a right of recovery for Losses under the Agreement, then any amounts incurred by the Purchaser Indemnified Parties in defense or settlement of such Third Party Claim, regardless of the outcome of such claim, shall be deemed Losses under the Agreement. The Purchaser shall have the right in its sole discretion to conduct the defense of, and to settle, any such claim and the Stockholders shall not have a right of approval or consent with respect to any such Third Party Claim; provided, that except with the consent of the Stockholders (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), no settlement of any such Third Party Claim with third party claimants shall be determinative of the amount of Losses relating to such matter or otherwise admissible in any proceeding or used in any way to resolve any dispute with respect to the amount of Losses.

If the Stockholders becomes aware of a third party claim (a “Company Third Party Claim”) which they reasonably believe may result in a claim for indemnification by the Stockholders pursuant to this Article VIII, the Stockholders shall notify the Purchaser promptly of such claim, and the Stockholders shall be entitled, at his expense, to participate in, but not to determine or conduct, the defense of such Company Third Party Claim. The Purchasers shall have the right in its sole discretion to conduct the defense of, and to settle, any such claim and the Stockholders shall not have a right of approval or consent with respect to any such Company Third Party Claim; provided, that except with the consent of the Stockholders (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), no settlement of any such Company Third Party Claim with third party claimants shall be determinative of the amount of Losses relating to such matter or otherwise admissible in any proceeding or used in any way to resolve any dispute with respect to the amount of Losses.

8.6 Limitation on Indemnities. The indemnities in this Article VIII shall be in full force and effect for a period of 7 years from the date hereof for Indemnifiable Matters involving tax liabilities as a result of federal, state and local taxes, for a period of 10 years from the date of execution of any written contracts entered into by the Company and for 15 months from the date hereof on all other Indemnifiable Matters.

The parties further agree that this arbitration shall apply equally to requests for temporary, preliminary or permanent injunctive relief, except that in the case of temporary or preliminary injunctive relief any party may proceed in court without prior arbitration for the purpose of avoiding immediate and irreparable harm or to enforce its rights under Section 6.3 or Section 6.4.

(b) The parties covenant and agree that the arbitration hearing shall commence within sixty (60) days of the date on which a written demand for arbitration is filed by any party hereto (the “Filing Date”). The hearing shall be no more than five (5) Business Days. In connection with the arbitration, the Arbitrator shall have the power to order the production of documents by each party and any third-party witnesses. In addition, each party may take up to three (3) depositions as of right, with each deposition limited to eight (8) hours, excluding breaks, and the Arbitrator may grant additional depositions upon good cause shown. For purposes of determining the number of depositions as of right, multiple petitioners or multiple respondents shall each respectively be deemed one party. The Arbitrator shall not have the power to order the answering of interrogatories or the response to requests for admission. The Arbitrator’s award shall be made and delivered within sixty (60) days of the closing of the evidentiary hearing on the merits (the “Hearing”) or within sixty (60) days of service of post-Hearing briefs, if the arbitrator directs service of such briefs, shall be binding and final as between the parties, and a judgment may be entered upon the award in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The Arbitrator’s decision shall set forth a reasoned basis for any award of damages or finding of liability. The parties covenant and agree that the arbitration shall conclude within six (6) months of the Filing Date, and the Arbitrator shall be provided notice of such six-month limit (and agreed to abide by it) prior to his or her appointment as Arbitrator.

(c) The parties shall maintain the confidential nature of the arbitration proceeding and any award thereunder, including the Hearing, except as may be necessary to prepare for or conduct the arbitration hearing on the merits, or except as may be necessary in connection with a court application for a preliminary remedy, a judicial challenge to an award or its enforcement, or unless otherwise required by Law, judicial decision or applicable securities laws or under applicable stock exchange rules.

(d) The parties will (i) bear their own attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses in connection with the arbitration, and (ii) share equally in the fees and expenses charged by the Arbitrator; provided, that the prevailing party shall be awarded its share of the Arbitrator’s fees and expenses and all other costs and expenses, including attorneys’, consultants’ and experts’ fees; provided, further, that any party unsuccessfully refusing to comply with the award or an order of the Arbitrator shall be liable for costs and expenses, including attorneys’, consultants’ and experts’ fees, incurred by the other party in enforcing the award or order. If the Arbitrator determines a party to be the prevailing party under circumstances where the prevailing party obtained relief on some but not all of the claims and counterclaims, the Arbitrator may award the prevailing party an appropriate percentage of the costs and expenses incurred by the prevailing party.

(e) Subject in all cases to the foregoing, each of the parties hereto irrevocably consents to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state or federal courts located within Missouri in connection with any matter based upon, arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the matters contemplated herein, agrees that process may be served upon them in any manner authorized by the laws of the State of Missouri for such Persons and waives and covenants not to assert or plead any objection which they might otherwise have to such jurisdiction, venue and such process. Each party agrees not to commence any legal proceedings related hereto except in such courts.

10.9 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Missouri, regardless of the Laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of laws thereof.

10.10 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY AND ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY HERETO IN NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT HEREOF.

10.11 Rules of Construction. The parties hereto agree that they have been represented by counsel during the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and, therefore, waive the application of any Law, regulation, holding or rule of construction providing that ambiguities in an agreement or other document will be construed against the party drafting such agreement or document.

10.12 No Third Party Beneficiary. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to confer on any Person other than the parties hereto or their respective successors and assigns any rights, remedies, or Liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement except that (i) Article VIII shall also be for the benefit of the Indemnified Parties and (ii) Section 6.3 shall also be for the benefit of the Affiliates of the Purchaser (which shall include, from and after the Closing, the Company).

10.13 Tax Advice. Other than as expressly set forth in this Agreement, no party to this Agreement makes any representations or warranties to any other party regarding the Tax treatment of the Transactions pursuant to this Agreement or any of the Tax consequences to any other party of this Agreement or the Transactions. Each party to this Agreement acknowledges that it is relying solely on its own Tax advisors in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions.

10.14 Disclosure Schedule. The Disclosure Schedule shall be arranged in separate parts corresponding to the numbered and lettered sections and subsections contained in this Agreement, and the information disclosed in any numbered or lettered part shall be deemed to relate to and to qualify only the particular representation or warranty of any Seller Party set forth in the corresponding numbered or lettered section or subsection of this Agreement, except to the extent that (a) such information is explicitly cross-referenced in another part of the Disclosure Schedule, or (b) it is readily apparent on the face of the disclosure (without reference to any document referred to therein) that such information qualifies another representation and warranty of any Seller Party in this Agreement. Nothing in the Disclosure Schedule shall be deemed adequate to disclose an exception to a representation or warranty of any Seller Party made in this Agreement, unless the applicable part of the Disclosure Schedule identifies the exception with reasonable particularity and describes the relevant facts in reasonable detail. The mere listing of a document or other item in, or attachment of a copy thereof to, the Disclosure Schedule will not be deemed adequate to disclose an exception to a representation or warranty made in this Agreement (unless the representation or warranty pertains directly to the existence of the document or other item itself).
