For example, if the Purchaser claims the Closing Cash Proceeds are one thousand dollars ($1,000) less than the amount determined by the Seller, and the Seller contests only five hundred dollars ($500) of the amount claimed by the Purchaser, and if the Valuation Firm ultimately resolves the dispute by awarding the Purchaser three hundred dollars ($300) of the five hundred dollars ($500) contested, then the costs and expenses of the Valuation Firm will be allocated sixty percent (60%) (i.e., 300 ÷ 500) to the Seller and forty percent (40%) (i.e., 200 ÷ 500) to the Purchaser. Prior to the Valuation Firm’s determination of the Closing Cash Proceeds, the Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Seller, on the other hand, shall each pay fifty percent (50%) of any retainer paid to the Valuation Firm. In connection with the Valuation Firm’s determination of the Closing Cash Proceeds, the Valuation Firm shall also determine, pursuant to the terms of the first and second sentences of this Section 2.04(g), and taking into account all fees and expenses of the Valuation Firm previously paid by each of the Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Seller, on the other hand, as of the date of such determination, the allocation of its fees and expenses between the Purchaser and the Seller, which such determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties hereto and shall not be subject to appeal or further review.

(h) Within five (5) Business Days after the Closing Cash Proceeds, including each of the components thereof, is finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.04:

(i) if the Closing Cash Proceeds as finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.04 are less than the Estimated Closing Cash Proceeds, then the Purchaser and the Seller shall cause the Escrow Agent to: (A) pay to the Purchaser solely and exclusively from the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Funds an amount (which in no case shall exceed the amount of the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Funds) (the “Purchaser Adjustment Amount”) equal to such deficiency, and (B) pay to the Seller, an amount equal to the amount (if any) by which the amount of the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Funds is greater than the Purchaser Adjustment Amount; and

- 19 -

(ii) if the Closing Cash Proceeds as finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.04 are equal to or greater than the Estimated Closing Cash Proceeds, then: (A) the Purchaser shall pay, or cause to be paid, to the Seller, an amount (which in no case shall exceed an aggregate amount equal to the amount of the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Funds plus $3,000,000) equal to such excess, and (B) the Purchaser and the Seller shall cause the Escrow Agent to pay to the Seller all of the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Funds.

(i) All payments to be made pursuant to Section 2.04(h) shall (x) be treated by all parties for Tax purposes as adjustments to the purchase price to the extent permitted by applicable Law and (y) be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account(s) designated by the Purchaser or the Seller, as applicable. The Purchaser hereby agrees and acknowledges that its right to any payment to be made pursuant to Section 2.04(h)(i) shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Purchaser for any and all claims arising under this Agreement with respect to this Section 2.04.

2.05 Repaid Indebtedness; Transaction Expenses.

No later than two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing, the Company shall deliver to the Purchaser final invoices or other payment instructions for the Transaction Expenses (the “Final Invoices”).

2.06 Withholding. The Purchaser and its agents shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement to any Person in such amounts as the Purchaser or such other Person is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code or any other applicable provision of Law; provided, that, except with respect to any compensatory payments subject to payroll withholding or in connection with the failure of the Seller to provide the applicable Tax form or withholding certificate contemplated by Section 12.05, the Purchaser or such other Person shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the Seller with notice as soon as reasonably practicable, but in any event at least two (2) Business Days, prior to withholding any amounts pursuant to this Section 2.06 and shall work in good faith with the Seller, to the extent legal and customary, to attempt to minimize any such withheld amounts. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and are timely paid over to the applicable Tax authority in accordance with applicable Law, such amounts shall 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.

2.07 Purchase Price Allocation. For U.S. federal (and applicable state and local) Income Tax purposes, the Purchaser and the Seller shall allocate the Closing Cash Proceeds, as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.04, and the assumed liabilities of the Company (plus any other items required to be taken into account under the Code) among the assets of the Company in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder and the methodologies set forth Schedule 2.07. Within ninety (90) days after the Closing Cash Proceeds are finally determined pursuant to Section 2.04, the Purchaser shall provide the Seller with a draft allocation prepared in accordance with the methodologies set forth Schedule 2.07 (the “Draft Purchase Price Allocation”). The Draft Purchase Price Allocation shall be binding upon the Purchaser, the Company and the Seller unless the Seller shall, within thirty (30) days of the delivery of the Draft Purchase Price Allocation to the Purchaser, provide to the Purchaser written notice of its objection to the Draft Purchase Price Allocation and the reasons therefor, in which event the Purchaser and the Seller shall endeavor in good faith to agree upon an allocation schedule (the “Final Purchase Price Allocation”). If the Purchaser and the Seller cannot resolve any such objections within thirty (30) days of the Seller’s notice of objection, the items in question shall be resolved by the Valuation Firm and shall be reflected in the Final Purchase Price Allocation. The fees and expenses of the Valuation Firm shall be borne by the Purchaser and the Seller in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.04(g). The Purchaser and the Seller shall file all Tax Returns and information reports in a manner consistent with the Final Purchase Price Allocation. Neither the Purchaser nor the Seller shall take any Tax position inconsistent with the Final Purchase Price Allocation and neither the Purchaser nor the Seller shall agree to any proposed adjustment to the Final Purchase Price Allocation by any Tax authority without first giving the other party prior written notice. If the Closing Cash Proceeds are adjusted pursuant to this Agreement, the Final Purchase Price Allocation shall be adjusted as appropriate and the Purchaser and the Seller shall cooperate in good faith in making any such adjustments.

8.08 Purchaser’s Financing Covenants.

(a) The Purchaser shall use, and cause each of its respective Affiliates to use, its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) arrange, consummate and obtain the Debt Financing, including by using the Purchaser’s commercially reasonable efforts to negotiate and enter into definitive agreements with respect to the Debt Financing; provided, that, there shall be no conditions to receipt of the Debt Financing, in any case, in a manner that would reasonably be expected to (A) prevent, impede or delay the ability of the Purchaser to consummate the Closing, or (B) make any portion of the Debt Financing (or satisfaction of the conditions to obtaining the Debt Financing) less likely to be obtained or prevent, impede or delay the funding of the Debt Financing, and (ii) upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 3.01 (other than those to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of those conditions at Closing) and in Section 3.03, consummate the Debt Financing at or prior to the Closing; so long as all of the conditions set forth in Section 3.01 (other than those to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of those conditions at Closing) and in Section 3.03 have been satisfied or waived. The Purchaser shall give the Company and the Seller prompt written notice (and, in any event, within one (1) Business Day) upon (x) becoming aware of any breach or default by any party to any definitive agreements relating to the Debt Financing that could reasonably be expected to prevent or materially delay or impede the Debt Financing from being consummated or result in the net funds to be received from the Debt Financing being insufficient to satisfy the requirements set forth in Section 6.09 therefor or (y) receipt by it or any of its Affiliates of any notice or other communication from any Person with respect to (i) any failure to comply with the material terms of the any definitive agreements relating to the Debt Financing, (ii) any actual or threatened termination or repudiation (whether in whole or in part) of any of the parties to any definitive agreements relating to the Debt Financing or (iii) any material dispute or disagreement between or among any of the parties to any such definitive agreements relating to the Debt Financing solely to the extent such disagreement or dispute relates to the obligation of the parties thereto to fund their commitments thereunder or the availability of the Debt Financing. The Purchaser shall inform the Company and the Seller on a reasonably current basis (but in no event more than once per week) and in reasonable detail of the status of the Purchaser’s efforts to arrange the Debt Financing and to satisfy the conditions thereof and of material developments concerning the timing of the closing of the Debt Financing. Without the prior written consent of each of the Company and the Seller, the Purchaser shall not permit any amendment or modification to be made to, or any waiver of any provision or remedy under, any of the definitive agreements relating to the Debt Financing, or release or consent to the termination of the obligations of the sources of the Debt Financing under any of the definitive agreements relating to the Debt Financing if such amendment, modification, waiver, consent or termination or release (i) reduces the aggregate amount of the Debt Financing, or (ii) imposes additional conditions precedent or contingencies to the availability of the Debt Financing or amends or modifies any of the existing conditions to the funding of the Debt Financing, or otherwise amends or modifies any of the definitive agreements relating to the Debt Financing, in a manner that would be reasonably expected to (1) prevent, impede, or delay the funding of the Debt Financing on the Closing Date or the ability of the Purchaser to consummate the Closing, (2) make any portion of the Debt Financing (or satisfaction of the conditions to obtaining the Debt Financing) less likely to be obtained or (3) adversely impact the ability of the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, as applicable, to enforce its rights against the other parties to any of the definitive agreements relating to the Debt Financing.

(b) If the Debt Financing contemplated by any of the definitive agreements relating to the Debt Financing becomes unavailable on the terms and conditions contemplated therein, in whole or in part, for any or no reason, the Purchaser shall (i) promptly (and, in any event, within one (1) Business Day thereof) notify the Company and the Seller thereof and (ii) use, and cause its Affiliates to use, commercially reasonable efforts to, as promptly as practicable following the occurrence of such event, arrange for and obtain alternative financing from other sources (including from Purchaser’s existing credit facility or a shelf registration, shelf offering or shelf prospectus, which alternative financing shall be in an amount at least equal to the Debt Financing or such unavailable portion thereof) on terms and conditions to funding and availability that are not (unless otherwise consented to in writing by the Company and the Seller) materially less favorable, in the aggregate, to the Purchaser than those in the definitive agreements relating to, or contemplated by, the Debt Financing in respect of the Debt Financing which has become unavailable, and without inclusion of any other terms that would reasonably be expected to (A) prevent, impede or delay the funding of the Debt Financing or the ability of the Purchaser to consummate the Closing, (B) make any portion of the Debt Financing (or satisfaction of the conditions to obtaining the Debt Financing) less likely to be obtained or (C) adversely impact the ability of the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, as applicable, to enforce its rights against the other parties to the definitive agreements relating to the Debt Financing (any such alternative financing, the “Alternative Debt Financing”) to replace such unavailable Debt Financing. For the avoidance of doubt, the failure to arrange for any such Alternative Debt Financing does not relieve the Purchaser of any of its obligations under this Agreement. In the event any Alternative Debt Financing is obtained any reference in this Agreement to the “Financing” or the “Debt Financing” shall include the Alternative Debt Financing.

- 58 -

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, none of the arrangement, consummation or obtaining of the Debt Financing or any alternative financing (including any Alternative Debt Financing) by the Purchaser is a condition to Closing and the obligations of the Purchaser to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are not subject to the availability of the Debt Financing or any Alternative Debt Financing.

(d) The Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its Subsidiaries, the Seller and each of their respective Affiliates, officers, directors, employees or agents from and against any and all losses suffered or incurred by any of them in connection with any of their cooperation or assistance with respect to the Debt Financing or the provision of any information utilized in connection therewith or otherwise arising from the Debt Financing; provided that the Purchaser shall not be required to indemnify any such Person to the extent such losses result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Person. The Purchaser shall at the Closing and following the presentation of reasonably detailed invoices therefor (no less than three days prior thereto, reimburse the Company and its Subsidiaries, for any and all reasonable out-of-pocket fees, costs or expenses (including fees, costs and expenses of counsel, accountants and other advisors) incurred by the Company or its Subsidiaries in connection with their cooperation or assistance with respect to the Debt Financing (such out-of-pocket fees, costs and expenses, the “Financing Cooperation Expenses”); provided, however, that the Purchaser shall not be obligated to reimburse the Company or its Subsidiaries for any Financing Cooperation Expenses unless such Financing Cooperation Expenses are approved in writing by the Purchaser prior to the incurrence of such Financing Cooperation Expenses; provided, further, that if the Purchaser disapproves of any such Financing Cooperation Expenses, none of the Company or its Subsidiaries shall be required to undertake such cooperation or assistance which would result in the incurrence of such Financing Cooperation Expenses.

8.09 Release of Guarantees. The Purchaser will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause each Seller Guaranty to be released and cancelled at the Closing; provided, however, that to the extent that any Seller Guaranty cannot be so released and cancelled, the Purchaser will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause itself or one of its Affiliates to be substituted for the Seller or the applicable Affiliate of the Seller directly affected thereby in respect of such Seller Guaranty (or if not possible, added as the primary obligor with respect thereto), in each case, without any further liability to, or obligation of, the Seller or such guarantors. If the Purchaser is not able to either release and cancel such Seller Guaranty or cause itself or one of its Affiliates to be so substituted in all respects in respect of such Seller Guaranty, then the Purchaser will, or will cause a Subsidiary to, indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Seller and its applicable Affiliates and guarantors with respect to all Liabilities that might arise or be incurred by any such Person arising out of, or with respect to, any such Seller Guaranty; provided, that the Purchaser shall not, and shall direct its Affiliates not to, amend, extend or otherwise increase any Liabilities guaranteed under any such Seller Guaranty following the Closing.

- 59 -

8.10 Efforts. On the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, the Purchaser will use its commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary to satisfy the conditions to the Closing (and refrain from taking any action that would reasonably be expected to have the effect of materially delaying, preventing or impeding the Closing). In furtherance of the foregoing, but subject to Section 10.04, the Purchaser shall (a) use commercial reasonable efforts to make or cause to be made all applications, filings and submissions under any Laws or regulations applicable to the Purchaser required for the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein, (b) reasonably coordinate and cooperate with the Company in exchanging such information and providing such assistance as the Company may reasonably request in connection with all of the foregoing and (c) supply promptly any additional information and documentary material that may be requested in connection with such filings, make any further filings pursuant thereto that may be necessary, proper, or advisable in connection therewith, and take all actions necessary to obtain all required clearances. Without limiting the foregoing, the Purchaser shall cooperate fully in connection with any application related to any Liquor Licenses held or applied for by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any franchisee (or the Purchaser in respect thereof) and, shall cause its officers, directors and managers to execute any documents necessary or convenient to apply for and obtain any necessary approvals or consents related to the Liquor Licenses.

(d) by the Purchaser, by written notice to the Seller and the Company, upon a breach of any covenant or agreement on the part of the Seller or the Company set forth in this Agreement, or if any representation or warranty contained in Article IV or Article V shall be or have become untrue, in either case, such that any of the conditions set forth in Section 3.01(a), Section 3.01(b) and Section 3.01(c) would not be satisfied as of such date, and the breach or breaches are incapable of being cured or are not cured or waived by the earlier of (i) a period of thirty (30) days after written notice thereof is delivered to the Seller and the Company by the Purchaser, or (ii) the Outside Date; provided that the Purchaser shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.01(d) if the Purchaser is then in breach of this Agreement in a manner that causes the conditions set forth in Section 3.02(a) or Section 3.02(b) not to be satisfied or has otherwise breached the Agreement in a manner that caused or resulted in the Seller or the Company breach;

- 60 -

(e) by the Company or the Seller, by written notice to the Purchaser, upon a breach of any covenant or agreement on the part of the Purchaser set forth in this Agreement, or if any representation or warranty of the Purchaser shall be or have become untrue, in either case, such that any of the conditions set forth in Section 3.02(a) or Section 3.02(b) would not be satisfied; as of such date, and the breach or breaches are incapable of being cured or are not cured or waived by the earlier of (i) a period of thirty (30) days after written notice thereof is delivered to the Seller and the Company by the Purchaser, or (ii) the Outside Date; provided that the Company or the Seller shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.01(e) if the Company or the Seller, as applicable, is then in breach of this Agreement in a manner that causes the conditions set forth in Section 3.01(a), Section 3.01(b) and Section 3.01(c) not to be satisfied or has otherwise breached the Agreement in a manner that caused or resulted in the Purchaser breach; or

(f) by the Company or the Seller, if (i) all of the conditions provided for in Section 3.01 and Section 3.03 have been satisfied or waived (other than (x) those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at the Closing, each of which shall be capable of being satisfied if the Closing Date were the date that notice of termination is delivered by the Company or the Seller to the Purchaser or (y) if the Purchaser has materially breached or is in material breach of this Agreement in a manner that caused or is causing any of the conditions provided for in Section 3.01 and Section 3.03 not to be satisfied, such conditions provided for in Section 3.01 and Section 3.03 which have not been satisfied as a result of such material breach), (ii) the Purchaser has not consummated the transactions contemplated by this Agreement by the day and time the Closing is required to occur pursuant to Section 2.02, (iii) the Company or the Seller has, at least five (5) Business Days prior to terminating this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.01(f), irrevocably confirmed in a written notice delivered to the Purchaser that (A) all of the conditions to the Company’s and the Seller’s obligations to consummate the Closing provided for in Section 3.02 have been satisfied or waived (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at the Closing) and (B) the Company and the Seller are ready, willing and able to consummate the Closing subject to closing conditions that by their terms or nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, and (iv) the Purchaser has not effected the Closing by the end of such five (5) Business Day period.

9.02 Effect of Termination.

(a) If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 9.01, this Agreement shall become void and of no further force and effect (other than Article I, Section 7.05(b), Section 8.05, Section 8.08(d), this Section 9.02 including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Purchaser’s obligations for payment of the Termination Fee pursuant to Section 9.02(b), Section 13.02, Section 13.11, Section 13.12, Section 13.16, Section 13.17 and Section 13.19, which shall survive the termination of this Agreement) without any liability or obligation on the part of any party hereto, (a) other than liabilities and obligations under the Non-Disclosure Agreement and (b) except that no such termination shall relieve any party hereto of any liability for damages resulting from any willful breach in any material respect of the terms of this Agreement prior to such termination.

- 61 -

(b) In the event of a termination of this Agreement by the Company or the Seller pursuant to Section 9.01(e) as a result of a willful breach by the Purchaser or pursuant to Section 9.01(f), then the Purchaser shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable (and, in any event, within five (5) Business Days) following such termination, pay to the Seller or its designee (as directed by the Seller in writing) Six Million dollars ($6,000,000) (the “Termination Fee”) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by the Seller or such designee; it being understood that in no event shall the Purchaser be required to pay the Termination Fee on more than one (1) occasion. Accordingly, in the event that the Purchaser shall fail to pay the Termination Fee when due, and, in order to obtain such payment, the Company or the Seller commences a suit that results in a final, non-appealable judgment or award against the Purchaser for the Termination Fee or any portion thereof, the Purchaser shall pay to the Company and the Seller, as applicable, all costs and expenses (including attorney’s fees) in connection with such suit, together with interest on the amount of such Termination Fee or portion thereof at a rate equal to ten percent (10%) per annum commencing on the date such payment was required to be made through the date of payment. Solely for purposes of establishing the basis for the amount thereof, and without in any way increasing the amount of the Termination Fee or expanding the circumstances in which the Termination Fee is to be paid, it is agreed that the Termination Fee, together with any fees, expenses and interest described in this Section 9.02(b), is not a penalty, but is liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate the Seller (or its designee(s)) in the circumstances in which such fee is payable under the preceding provisions of this Section 9.02(b), for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, which amount would otherwise be difficult to calculate with any precision.

(c) If the Seller (or its designee(s)) receives full payment of the Termination Fee pursuant to Section 9.02(b), together with any interest described in Section 9.02(b) and reimbursement of any expenses pursuant to Section 8.08(d), the receipt of the Termination Fee, together with any such interest and expense reimbursement, will be the sole and exclusive remedy for any and all liabilities, losses, damages, obligations, costs or expenses suffered or incurred by the Company, the Seller or any of their respective Affiliates in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, that nothing in this Section 9.02(c) will limit the right of the Company, the Seller or any of their respective Affiliates (i) to bring or maintain, or receive a judgment or award in, any action, suit, claim, investigation or proceeding for injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief as provided in Section 13.17, (ii) to bring or maintain, or receive a judgment or award in, any action, suit, claim, investigation or proceeding arising out of or in connection with any breach of the Non-Disclosure Agreement, or (iii) to be indemnified and reimbursed for losses or expenses in accordance with Section 8.08(d). For the avoidance of doubt, while the Company, the Seller and any of their respective Affiliates, as applicable, may pursue both a grant of specific performance to cause the Purchaser to consummate the Closing and the payment of the Termination Fee, under no circumstances will the Company, the Seller or any of their respective Affiliates be permitted or entitled to receive both a grant of specific performance to cause the Purchaser to consummate the Closing and the Termination Fee. The actual receipt by the Seller (or its designee(s)) of the Termination Fee, together with any fees, expenses and interest described in Section 9.02(b) and reimbursement of any expenses pursuant to Section 8.08(d), shall be deemed to be liquidated damages, which amounts constitutes a reasonable estimate of the damages that will be suffered by reason of any such termination of this Agreement (and not a penalty).

(d) Without limiting the foregoing, upon payment of the Termination Fee as and when due in accordance herewith, none of the Purchaser, any of the Purchaser’s Subsidiaries nor any Non-Recourse Party of the Purchaser (collectively, the “Purchaser Related Parties”) shall have any further liability or obligation with respect to (1) any loss suffered, directly or indirectly, as a result of the failure of the transactions contemplated hereby to be consummated, (2) the termination of this Agreement, (3) any liabilities or obligations arising under or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or (4) any claims or actions arising out of or relating to any breach, termination or failure of or under this Agreement and the only liability, in the aggregate, of the Purchaser shall be the payment of the Termination Fee, and in no event shall the Seller, the Company or any of their Subsidiaries or Affiliates seek any other recovery, judgment or award of any kind, including consequential, indirect or punitive damages, against the Purchaser or any Purchaser Related Party through the Purchaser or otherwise, whether by or through a claim by or on behalf of the Purchaser against any Purchaser Related Party, by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding, by virtue of any statute, regulation or applicable law, or otherwise, whether at law or in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise, except for the Seller’s and the Company’s right (i) to recover the Termination Fee together with any fees, costs or expenses and interest described in Section 9.02(b) under and to the extent provided in this Section 9.02, (ii) to bring or maintain any action, suit, claim or proceeding for injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief as provided in Section 13.17, (iii) to bring or maintain, or receive a judgment or award in, any action, suit, claim, investigation or proceeding arising out of, or in connection with, any breach of the Non-Disclosure Agreement, or (iv) to be indemnified and reimbursed for losses or expenses in accordance with Section 8.08(d).

- 62 -

(e) The parties acknowledge that the agreements contained in this Section 9.02 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that, without these agreements, the parties would not enter into this Agreement.

(e) No Third Party Beneficiaries. The provisions of this Section 10.03 are solely for the benefit of the parties to this Agreement, and no current or former employee, officer, director, manager or consultant, or any other individual associated therewith, shall be regarded for any purpose as a third party beneficiary of this Section 10.03.

For the avoidance of doubt, “commercially reasonable efforts” shall not require Purchaser to consent to any divestiture or other structural or conduct relief in order to obtain clearance from any Governmental Body, or to contest, administratively or in court, any ruling, order, or other action of any Governmental Body or any other Person respecting the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Prior to the Closing, the Purchaser shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, undertake or consummate any Competitive Transaction. In addition to the foregoing, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Purchaser shall not (and shall cause their Affiliates not to) take or fail to take any action that is intended to or has (or would reasonably be expected to have) the effect of preventing, impairing, materially delaying or otherwise adversely affecting (A) the consummation of the Closing, including (w) imposing any delay in the obtaining of, or materially increasing the risk of not obtaining, any authorization, consent, order, declaration or approval of any Governmental Body necessary to consummate the Closing or the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting period, (x) increasing the risk of any Governmental Body entering an order prohibiting the consummation of the Closing, (y) increasing the risk of not being able to remove any such order on appeal or otherwise, or (z) materially delaying or preventing the consummation of the Closing or (B) the ability of such party to fully perform its obligations pursuant to this Agreement.

(c) The parties hereto commit to instruct their respective counsel to cooperate with each other and use commercially reasonable efforts to facilitate and expedite the identification and resolution of any issues arising under the HSR Act or any requested consent, authorization or approval set forth on Schedule 3.03(a) and the Liquor Licenses at the earliest practicable dates. Such commercially reasonable efforts and cooperation include counsel’s undertaking (i) to keep each other appropriately informed of material communications from and to personnel of the reviewing Governmental Bodies, and (ii) to confer with each other regarding appropriate contacts with and response to personnel of such Governmental Bodies and the content of any such contacts or presentations. Neither the Company nor the Purchaser shall participate in any meeting or material discussion with any Governmental Body with respect to any such filings, applications, investigation, or other inquiry without giving the other party prior notice of the meeting or discussion and, to the extent permitted by the relevant Governmental Body, the opportunity to attend and participate in such meeting or discussion (which, at the request of either the Purchaser or the Company, shall be limited to outside antitrust counsel only). The Company and the Purchaser shall each approve the content of any filings (as contemplated by Section 10.04), material communications, presentations, white papers or other written materials to be submitted to any Governmental Body in advance of any such submission, provided that such materials may be redacted to (A) remove references to commercially or competitively-sensitive information, and (B) address reasonable attorney-client privilege or confidentiality concerns.

10.05 Registration Statement.

(a) Within 120 days following the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall prepare and file or cause to be prepared and filed with the SEC, a registration statement for an offering to be made on a delayed or continuous basis, pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act or any successor thereto (the “Resale Shelf Registration Statement”), registering the resale from time to time by the Seller and any permitted transferees (each a “Holder” and, collectively, the “Holders”) all of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock included in the Closing Stock Consideration held or beneficially owned by the Holders that (x) have not already been sold pursuant to an effective registration statement, (y) have not been distributed to the public pursuant to Rule 144 and (z) are still outstanding (such shares, the “Registrable Shares”). The Resale Shelf Registration Statement shall be on Form S-3 (or, if Form S-3 is not available to be used by the Purchaser at such time, on Form S-1 or another appropriate form permitting registration of the resale of the Registrable Shares in accordance with any reasonable method of distribution elected by the Holders). If the Purchaser is a “well-known seasoned issuer” (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) at the time of the filing of the Resale Shelf Registration Statement, the Resale Shelf Registration Statement shall be an automatic shelf registration statement (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act). The Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Resale Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective as soon as reasonably practicable after filing but no later than the earlier of (i) 180 days thereafter, and (ii) the tenth Business Day after the date the Purchaser is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the SEC that the Resale Shelf Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review, and shall provide prompt notice to the Holders of such effectiveness; provided, however, that the Purchaser’s obligations to include the Registrable Shares held by a Holder in the Resale Shelf Registration Statement are contingent upon such Holder timely furnishing in writing to the Purchaser such information regarding such Holder, the Registrable Shares held by such Holder, and the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Shares, as shall be reasonably requested by the Purchaser to effect the registration of the resale of the Registrable Shares, and such Holder shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Purchaser may reasonably request that are customary of a selling stockholder in similar situations. No securities (other than Registrable Shares) shall be registered on the Resale Shelf Registration Statement without the consent of the Holders.

(b) The Purchaser shall notify each Holder promptly upon discovery that the Resale Shelf Registration Statement or any supplement to any prospectus forming a part of the Resale Shelf Registration Statement contains a Material Misstatement and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to supplement or amend such prospectus as promptly as practicable so that such prospectus will not contain such Material Misstatement and shall provide a copy of such supplemented or amended prospectus to each Holder as promptly as practicable, but no later than one (1) Business Day following the filing thereof with the SEC. Upon being notified by the Purchaser of any Material Misstatement, Seller shall cause each Holder to refrain from selling any Registrable Shares pursuant to the Resale Shelf Registration Statement until such holders receive from the Purchaser copies of a supplemented or amended prospectus prepared and filed by the Purchaser, or until the Purchaser notifies such holders in writing that the then current prospectus may be used.

- 66 -

(c) Following effectiveness of the Resale Shelf Registration Statement, the Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Resale Shelf Registration Statement to be continuously effective until the earlier of (1) six years after the initial effectiveness of the Resale Shelf Registration Statement, and (2) such time as there are no longer any Registrable Shares (such period, the “Registration Period”). If the Resale Shelf Registration Statement ceases to be effective under the Securities Act for any reason at any time during the Registration Period, the Purchaser shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to promptly cause such Resale Shelf Registration Statement to again become effective under the Securities Act (including obtaining the prompt withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Resale Shelf Registration Statement), and in any event shall within thirty (30) days of such cessation of effectiveness, amend such Resale Shelf Registration Statement in a manner reasonably expected to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Resale Shelf Registration Statement or, file an additional registration statement for an offering to be made on a delayed or continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act registering the resale from time to time by Holders thereof of all securities that are Registrable Shares as of the time of such filing. If such an additional registration statement is filed, the Purchaser shall use its reasonable efforts to (i) cause such additional registration statement to become effective under the Securities Act as promptly as is reasonably practicable after such filing (and if the Purchaser is a “well-known seasoned issuer” (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) at the time of the filing of such additional registration statement, the registration statement shall be an automatic shelf registration statement (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act)), and (ii) keep such additional registration statement (or another additional registration statement) continuously effective until the end of the Registration Period (such additional registration statement being also referred to herein as the “Resale Shelf Registration Statement”). The Purchaser shall supplement and amend any Resale Shelf Registration Statement contemplated hereunder if required by the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used by the Purchaser for such registration statement if required by the Securities Act or as reasonably requested by the Holders covered by such registration statement. To the extent that any Holder is or may be deemed to be an “underwriter” of Registrable Shares pursuant to any SEC comments or policies, the Purchaser agrees that (x) the indemnification and contribution provisions contained in Section 10.05(k) shall be applicable to the benefit of such Holder in their role as an underwriter or deemed underwriter in addition to their capacity as a holder or selling stockholder and (y) if requested by such Holder, such Holder shall be entitled to conduct the due diligence which they would normally conduct in connection with an offering of securities registered under the Securities Act, including receipt of customary opinions and comfort letters addressed to such Holder.

(d) From the Closing Date until the end of the Registration Period, the Purchaser shall (i) use commercially reasonable efforts to make and keep public all of the issuer information contemplated by Rule 144 under the Securities Act, (ii) file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required to be filed by the Purchaser under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and (iii) take such further action as the Holders may reasonably request, in each case, in order to permit resale of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock included in the Closing Stock Consideration in compliance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act.

- 67 -

(e) The Holders of a majority of the Registrable Shares may on up to six (6) occasions after the Resale Shelf Registration Statement becomes effective deliver a written notice to the Purchaser specifying that the sale of some or all of the Registrable Shares subject to the Resale Shelf Registration Statement is intended to be conducted through an underwritten offering so long as the anticipated gross proceeds of such underwritten offering is not less than Five Million dollars ($5,000,000) (unless the Holders are proposing to sell all of their remaining Registerable Shares) (the “Underwritten Offering”). The Holders shall select the managing underwriter or underwriters to administer the Underwritten Offering, which underwriter or underwriters shall be reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 10.05, if the managing underwriter or underwriters of a proposed Underwritten Offering advises the board of the Purchaser that in its or their opinion the number of Registrable Shares requested to be included in such Underwritten Offering exceeds the number which can be sold in such Underwritten Offering in light of market conditions, the Registrable Shares shall be included on a pro rata basis upon the number of securities that each Holder shall have requested to be included in such offering. If any Holder disapproves of the terms of any such Underwritten Offering, such Holder may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Purchaser and the managing underwriter or underwriters.

(f) Subject to the other applicable provisions of this Section 10.05, at any time that any Resale Shelf Registration Statement is effective, if a Holder delivers a notice to the Purchaser (a “Take-Down Notice”) stating that it intends to effect a sale or distribution of all or part of its Registrable Shares included by it on any Resale Shelf Registration Statement (a “Shelf Offering”) and stating the number of Registrable Shares to be included in such Shelf Offering, then, subject to the other applicable provisions of this Section 10.05, the Purchaser shall as promptly as is reasonably practicable (and in any event within thirty (30) days following delivery of the Take-Down Notice to the Purchaser) amend or supplement the Resale Shelf Registration Statement as may be necessary in order to enable such Registrable Shares to be sold and distributed pursuant to the Shelf Offering. In such event, the Purchaser will: (i) furnish to the Holders participating in such registration and to their legal counsel copies of the prospectus supplement to the Resale Shelf Registration Statement proposed to be filed, and provide such Holders and their legal counsel the reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such prospectus supplement; (ii) furnish to the Holders participating in such offering and to the underwriters of the securities being registered such reasonable number of copies of the registration statement, preliminary prospectus and final prospectus as such underwriters may reasonably request in order to facilitate the public offering of such securities; (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to register and qualify the securities covered by such prospectus supplement under such other securities or blue sky laws of such states as shall be required under applicable law and reasonably requested by the Holders; provided, however, that the Purchaser shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions; (iv) in the event that the Registrable Shares are being offered in an underwritten offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement in customary form in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement; (v) in connection with an underwritten offering, cause its officers to use their commercially reasonable efforts to support the marketing of the Registrable Shares covered by such offering (including participation in a reasonable number of “road shows” or other similar marketing efforts); (vi) use commercially reasonable efforts to furnish, (x) on the date that such Registrable Shares are delivered to the underwriters for sale, if such securities are being sold in an Underwritten Offering, an opinion, dated as of such date, of the legal counsel representing the Purchaser for the purposes of such registration, in form and substance as is customarily given to underwriters in an underwritten offering, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and (y) on the pricing date and on the date that such Registrable Shares are delivered to the underwriters for sale, if such securities are being sold in an Underwritten Offering, a letter dated as of such dates, from the independent certified public accountants of the Purchaser, in form and substance as is customarily given by independent certified public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten offering, addressed to the underwriters; (vii) use commercially reasonable efforts to list the Registrable Shares covered by such prospectus supplement with any securities exchange on which shares of Series B Preferred Stock included in the Closing Stock Consideration are then listed; and (viii) make available upon reasonable notice at reasonable times and for reasonable periods for inspection by each Holder included in any registration, by any lead underwriter or underwriters participating in any disposition to be effected pursuant to such prospectus supplement, and by any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by any Holder included in such offering or any lead underwriter, all pertinent financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Purchaser, and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause all of the Purchaser’s officers, directors and employees and the independent public accountants to make themselves reasonably available to discuss the business of the Purchaser and to supply all information reasonably requested by any such Holders, lead underwriters, attorneys, accountants or agents in connection with such prospectus supplement as shall be necessary to enable them to exercise their due diligence responsibility (subject to entry by each party referred to in this clause (viii) into customary confidentiality agreements in a form reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser).

- 68 -

(g) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 10.05, if a Holder desires to engage in an underwritten block trade or bought deal pursuant to the Resale Shelf Registration Statement (each, an “Underwritten Block Trade”), then notwithstanding the time periods set forth in this Section 10.05, the Holders may notify the Purchaser of the Underwritten Block Trade not less than five (5) Business Days prior to the day such offering is first anticipated to commence. If requested by the Holders, the Purchaser will use its commercially reasonable efforts to facilitate such Underwritten Block Trade (which may close as early as two (2) Business Days after the date it commences).

(h) (i) all reasonable and documented fees and expenses incident to the performance of or compliance with this Section 10.05, including all registration, qualification, listing and filing fees, printing expenses, escrow fees, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Purchaser, fees and disbursements of all independent certified public accountants, blue sky fees and expenses, expenses of the Purchaser incurred in connection with any road show and the expense of any special audits incident to or required by any such registration and (ii) the fees and expenses of any counsel to the Holders incurred in connection with any registration pursuant to this Section 10.05, not to exceed $50,000 in the aggregate, shall be borne by the Purchaser. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all underwriting discounts, selling commissions, and stock transfer taxes applicable to the Registrable Shares shall be borne by the Holders of such Registrable Shares.

(i) In the case of any Underwritten Offering of Registrable Shares, the Purchaser will not file any registration statement for a public offering of Series B Preferred Stock or cause any such registration statement to become effective, or effect any public sale or distribution of Series B Preferred Stock during the period, not to exceed thirty (30) days following the pricing of such Underwritten Offering (the “Holdback Period”) (other than pursuant to a registration or offering in accordance with this Section 10.05, or a registration on Form S-4 or Form S-8 or any successor or similar form)

(j) If any Holder seeks to effectuate an in-kind distribution of all or part of their Registrable Shares to their respective direct or indirect equityholders, the Purchaser will, subject to any applicable lock-ups, use its commercially reasonable efforts to work with the foregoing Persons to facilitate such in-kind distribution in the manner reasonably requested and consistent with the Purchaser’s obligations under the Securities Act.

- 69 -

(k) Indemnification and Contribution.

(i) The Purchaser will indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by law and without limitation as to time, each Holder, such Holder’s officers, directors employees, agents, fiduciaries, stockholders, managers, partners, members, affiliates, direct and indirect equityholders, consultants and representatives, and any successors and assigns thereof, and each Person who controls such Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act) (the “Indemnified Parties”) against all losses, claims, actions, damages, liabilities and expenses (including with respect to actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, and including reasonable attorney fees and expenses) (collectively, “Losses”) caused by, resulting from, arising out of, based upon or related to any of the following (each, a “Violation”) by the Purchaser with respect to any Resale Shelf Registration Statement, any prospectus, preliminary prospectus or free writing prospectus with respect thereto, or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto: (A) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained therein, (B) any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading or (C) any violation or alleged violation by the Purchaser of the Securities Act or any rule or regulation promulgated thereunder applicable to the Purchaser and relating to action or inaction required of the Purchaser with respect thereto. In addition, the Purchaser will reimburse such Indemnified Party for any legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Losses. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchaser will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such Losses result from, arise out of, are based upon, or relate to an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement, or omission or alleged omission, made in such registration statement, any such prospectus, preliminary prospectus or free writing prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, in reliance upon, and in conformity with, written information prepared and furnished in writing to the Purchaser or any underwriter by any Indemnified Party expressly for use therein or by any Indemnified Party’s failure to deliver a copy of the registration statement or prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto after the Purchaser has furnished such Indemnified Party with a sufficient number of copies of the same. In connection with an Underwritten Offering, the Purchaser will indemnify such underwriters, their officers and directors, and each Person who controls such underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided above with respect to the indemnification of the Indemnified Parties to the extent agreed to by the Purchaser in the underwriting agreement executed in connection with such Underwritten Offering. Such indemnity and reimbursement of expenses shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party and shall survive the transfer of such securities by such seller.

(ii) In connection with any registration statement in which a Holder is participating, each such Holder will furnish to the Purchaser in writing such information and affidavits as the Purchaser reasonably requests for use in connection with any such registration statement or prospectus, and, to the fullest extent permitted by law and without limitation as to time, will, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Purchaser to each Indemnified Party as set forth in Section 10.05(k)(i), indemnify the Purchaser, its officers, directors, employees, agents, fiduciaries, stockholders, affiliates, and representatives, and any successors thereof, and each Person who controls the Purchaser (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any Losses (as determined by a final and appealable judgment, order or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction) resulting from, arising out of, based upon, or related to any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in the registration statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information or affidavit so furnished in writing by such Holder expressly for use therein; provided that, the obligation to indemnify will be individual, not joint and several, for each Holder and will be limited to the net amount of proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Shares pursuant to such registration statement.

- 70 -

(iii) Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder will (A) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give prompt notice will impair any Person’s right to indemnification hereunder only to the extent such failure has prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (B) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party will not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim will not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest exists between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. In such instance, the conflicted indemnified parties will have a right to retain one separate counsel, chosen by the majority of the conflicted indemnified parties involved in the indemnification and approved by the Holders, at the expense of the indemnifying party.

(iv) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 10.05(k) is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to, or is insufficient to hold harmless, an indemnified party or is otherwise unenforceable with respect to any Loss referred to herein, then such indemnifying party will contribute to the amounts paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such Loss, (A) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such Loss as well as any other relevant equitable considerations or (B) if the allocation provided by clause (A) of this Section 10.05(k)(iv) is not permitted by applicable law, then in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative fault but also the relative benefit of the Purchaser on the one hand and of the sellers of Registrable Shares and any other sellers participating in the registration statement on the other in connection with the statement or omissions which resulted in such Losses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; provided that the maximum amount of liability in respect of such contribution will be limited, in the case of each seller of Registrable Shares, to an amount equal to the net proceeds actually received by such seller from the sale of Registrable Shares effected pursuant to such registration. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party will be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue (or, as applicable alleged) untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just or equitable if the contribution pursuant to this Section 10.05(k)(iv) were to be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account such equitable considerations. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the Losses referred to herein will be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending against any action or claim which is the subject hereof. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution from any Person who is not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

- 71 -

(v) No indemnifying party will, except with the consent of the indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.

(vi) The indemnification and contribution provided for under this Section 10.05(k) will be in addition to any other rights to indemnification or contribution that any indemnified party may have pursuant to law or contract (and the Purchaser and its Subsidiaries shall be considered the indemnitors of first resort in all such circumstances to which this Section 10.05(k) applies) and will remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director or controlling Person of such indemnified party and will survive the transfer of Registrable Shares and the termination or expiration of this Agreement.

10.06 TP New Mexico Acquisition.

(a) Following the Closing, the parties hereto shall work in good faith to cause the TP New Mexico Xxxx of Sale to be executed and delivered and to cause the consummation of the acquisition of the equity securities of TP New Mexico by the Purchaser (or its designee), as set forth in, and pursuant to, the TP New Mexico Xxxx of Sale, as soon as reasonably practicable following the Closing Date and receipt by the Purchaser of all regulatory approvals necessary to complete such acquisition, including the final approval of the Alcohol and Beverage Control Division of the New Mexico Regulation and Licensing Department to transfer the ownership of New Mexico Inter-Local Dispenser Liquor License No. 27999.

(b) Following the Closing until the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the TP New Mexico Xxxx of Sale, the Seller (i) shall, and shall cause TP New Mexico to, subject to applicable Law (A) use commercially reasonable efforts to operate TP New Mexico in the ordinary course of business, taking into account the rights and obligations of the parties under the Temporary Services Agreements and (B) afford to the Purchaser and its representatives reasonable access to TP New Mexico’s personnel, store location and to business, financial, tax and other data and information and (ii) shall cause TP New Mexico not to, without the prior written consent of the consent of the Purchaser, (w) incur any Indebtedness (other than existing Capital Lease Obligations, immaterial Capital Lease Obligations or Indebtedness of the type described in clause (xiii) of the definition thereof), (x) declare or make any distributions (in cash or property) on, or other payments or distributions on the account of, or the purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire any equity interests in TP New Mexico, (y) make any payments of any other kind to the Seller or any of its Affiliates or (z) facilitate or engage in a TP New Mexico Transaction.

(c) For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that no representation or warranty of the Seller or the Company shall be deemed untrue or breached on account of the consummation of the Pre-Closing Restructuring in accordance herewith.

Article XI

NO SURVIVAL OR CLAIMS FOR REPRESENTATIONS,

WARRANTIES, OR PRE-CLOSING COVENANTS

11.01 Survival. None of the representations or warranties in Article IV, Article V or Article VI shall survive the Closing and each such representation and warranty shall terminate on and as of the Closing, and no claims may be brought with respect to such representations or warranties from or after the Closing. None of the covenants in this Agreement to the extent required to be performed prior to the Closing shall survive the Closing and each such covenant shall terminate on and as of the Closing, and no claims may be brought with respect to such covenants from or after the Closing. All other covenants which are to be performed at or after the Closing shall survive for the time periods specified therein and shall terminate once such covenants are fully performed.

- 72 -

11.02 Exclusive Remedy. From and after (a) the date hereof until the Closing, the Purchaser’s and its Non-Recourse Parties’ sole and exclusive remedy against the Company and its Subsidiaries, the Seller and each of their respective Non-Recourse Parties, whether in any individual, corporate or any other capacity, with respect to any and all claims relating (directly or indirectly) to the subject matter of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, regardless of the legal theory under which such liability or obligation may be sought to be imposed, whether sounding in contract or tort, or whether at law or in equity, or otherwise, shall be solely pursuant to the provisions of Section 9.01 or Section 13.17 in accordance with the terms hereof, and (b) the Closing, the Purchaser and its Non-Recourse Parties, whether in any individual, corporate or any other capacity, with respect to any and all claims relating (directly or indirectly) to the subject matter of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, regardless of the legal theory under which such liability or obligation may be sought to be imposed (whether sounding in contract or tort, or whether at law or in equity, on public policy grounds, under any Law (including under securities Laws or RICO), on the basis of “unjust enrichment” or otherwise), shall be solely and exclusively for breach of any agreement or covenant herein surviving, and requiring performance at or after, the Closing to the extent provided in Section 11.01 or the provisions of the Escrow Agreement. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Purchaser hereby waives and releases to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, the Seller and its Non-Recourse Parties, whether in any individual, corporate or any other capacity, from and against any and all other rights, claims and causes of action it may have against the Seller or its Non-Recourse Parties relating (directly or indirectly) to the subject matter of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (including relating to any exhibit, Schedule or document delivered hereunder), including whether arising under or based upon any Law or otherwise and including any rights to rescission of the transactions contemplated hereby, other than claims for breach of any agreement or covenant herein surviving, and requiring performance at or after, the Closing to the extent provided in Section 11.01 or the provisions of the Escrow Agreement. The limits imposed on the Purchaser’s and its Non-Recourse Parties’ remedies with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including this Section 11.02) were specifically bargained for between sophisticated parties and were specifically taken into account in the determination of the amounts to be paid to the Seller hereunder. None of the Purchaser or any of its Non-Recourse Parties may avoid the limitations on liability set forth in this Agreement by seeking damages for breach of contract, tort or pursuant to any other theory of liability. Nothing in this Section 11.02 shall limit a party’s right to (i) seek specific performance of the other parties’ obligations hereunder in accordance with Section 13.17 or (ii) bring a claim (and, if successful, recover losses therefrom) for Fraud.

12.04 Tax Returns.

(b) For the purposes of this Agreement, in the case of any Straddle Period, the amount of any Taxes based on or measured by income, receipts, or payroll of the Company and its Subsidiaries for the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date shall be determined based on an interim closing of the books as of the close of business on the Closing Date, and the amount of other Taxes of the Company and its Subsidiaries for the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date shall be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire taxable 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.

In addition, matters reflected in the Disclosure Schedules are not necessarily limited to matters required by this Agreement to be reflected in the Disclosure Schedules. Such additional matters are set forth for informational purposes only and do not necessarily include other matters of a similar nature. The Disclosure Schedules have been arranged for purposes of convenience in separate sections corresponding to the sections of Article IV and Article V; provided, that information disclosed on one section of the Disclosure Schedules shall be deemed to be disclosed on another section of the Disclosure Schedules or be deemed to be an exception to another representation and warranty in Article IV or Article V, in each case, if the relevance of such information to such other section of the Disclosure Schedules is reasonably apparent on its face. Capitalized terms used in the Disclosure Schedules and not otherwise defined therein have the meanings given to them in this Agreement. The information contained in this Agreement, in the Disclosure Schedules, and exhibits hereto is disclosed solely for purposes of this Agreement, and no information contained herein or therein shall be deemed to be an admission by any party hereto to any third party of any matter whatsoever (including any violation of Law or breach of contract).

13.08 Complete Agreement. This Agreement, the exhibits and schedules hereto and the other agreements, instruments, and documents contemplated hereby or executed in connection herewith (including the Non-Disclosure Agreement) contain the complete agreement between the parties hereto and supersede any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or between the parties hereto, written or oral, which may have related to the subject matter hereof in any way, including any letter of intent.

This Agreement and any signed agreement or instrument entered into in connection with this Agreement, and any amendments hereto or thereto, may be executed in two (2) or more counterparts, all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument. Any such counterpart, to the extent delivered by .pdf, .tif, .gif, .jpeg or similar attachment to electronic mail (any such delivery, an “Electronic Delivery”) shall be treated in all manner and respects as an original executed counterpart and shall be considered to have the same binding legal effect as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person. At the request of any party hereto, each other party hereto or to any signed agreement or instrument entered into in connection with this Agreement, or any amendments hereto or thereto, shall re-execute the original form of this Agreement, or the applicable signed agreement, instrument or amendment, and deliver such form to all other parties hereto or thereto. No party hereto shall raise the use of Electronic Delivery to deliver a signature or the fact that any signature or agreement or instrument was transmitted or communicated through the use of Electronic Delivery as a defense to the formation of a contract, and each such party forever waives any such defense, except to the extent such defense relates to lack of authenticity.

ANY AND ALL ACTIONS AND CAUSES OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR STATUTE, SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, INCLUDING ITS STATUTES OF LIMITATIONS (EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY SET FORTH HEREIN), WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ANY CHOICE OF LAW OR CONFLICT OF LAW RULES OR PROVISIONS (WHETHER OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE OR ANY OTHER JURISDICTION) THAT WOULD RESULT IN THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OR STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS OF A JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE STATE OF DELAWARE.

13.12 Arbitration; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.

(a) Except for disputes, controversies or claims arising under Section 2.04 (which will be resolved in accordance with the dispute resolution provisions set forth therein), for other claims seeking injunctive relief (for which the provisions of Section 13.17 will be applicable) or as otherwise expressly provided in the Escrow Agreement or Put/Call Agreement, all disputes, controversies or claims arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (whether in contract, tort, equity or otherwise), including the arbitrability of any dispute or controversy that cannot be settled by mutual agreement will be finally settled by binding arbitration in accordance with the JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules & Procedures (“JAMS”) and this Section 13.12. Any party hereto aggrieved will deliver a notice to the other party setting forth the specific points in dispute. Any points remaining in dispute twenty (20) days after the giving of such notice may, upon ten (10) days’ notice to the other party, be submitted by either party to JAMS arbitration conducted before a panel of three (3) arbitrators in New York, New York (provided that if the arbitrators determine in their reasonable discretion that an arbitration cannot be conducted in-person in such location due to COVID-19 Measures or otherwise without jeopardizing the health and safety of the parties or the arbitrators, then the arbitration may be conducted either in an alternative location or via telephonic or video conference, as determined by the arbitrators in their reasonable discretion). The Purchaser and the Seller will each appoint one (1) arbitrator (the “Party-Appointed Arbitrators”) and the Party-Appointed Arbitrators will appoint the third and presiding arbitrator within fourteen (14) days of the appointment of the second arbitrator; provided, that, any arbitrator not timely appointed herein will be appointed in accordance with the JAMS upon the written demand of any party to the dispute. The arbitrators may enter a default decision against any party that fails to participate in the arbitration proceedings.

(b) The decision of the arbitrators on the points in dispute will be final, unappealable and binding, and judgment on the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The arbitrators will only be authorized to interpret the provisions of this Agreement, and will not amend, change or add to any such provisions. The parties hereto agree that this provision has been adopted by the parties to rapidly and inexpensively resolve any disputes between them and that this provision will be grounds for dismissal of any court action commenced by any party with respect to this Agreement (other than disputes, controversies or claims arising under Section 2.04 (which will be resolved in accordance with the dispute resolution provisions set forth therein) or other claims seeking injunctive relief (for which the provisions of Section 13.17 will be applicable)). In the event that any court determines that this arbitration procedure is not binding, or otherwise allows any litigation regarding a dispute, claim, or controversy covered by this Agreement to proceed, the parties hereto hereby waive any and all right to a trial by jury in or with respect to such litigation.

- 78 -

(c) The parties hereto and the arbitrators will keep confidential, and will not disclose to any Person, except the parties’ advisors and legal representatives, or as may be required by law, legal process, or applicable stock exchange rules, the existence of any controversy under this Section 13.12, the referral of any such controversy to arbitration or the status or resolution thereof.

(d) The parties hereto may seek any interim or conservatory relief, including an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware; provided, however, that if such court does not have jurisdiction over any such action or proceeding, such action or proceeding will be heard and determined exclusively in any Delaware state or federal court sitting in the City of Wilmington, Delaware, this being in addition to any other remedy to which such party is entitled at law or in equity. The application of a party to an above-mentioned judicial authority for such measures or for the implementation of any such measures ordered by an arbitral tribunal will not be deemed to be an infringement or a waiver of this Section 13.12 and will not affect the relevant powers reserved to the arbitral tribunal.

(e) Each party hereby irrevocably consents to the service of process by registered mail or personal service.

(f) EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING (I) ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR (II) IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO IN RESPECT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO, IN EACH CASE, WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, EQUITY, OR OTHERWISE (INCLUDING, FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, ANY SEEKING EQUITABLE RELIEF).

13.13 Legal Representation.

(a) Following consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the Company and its Subsidiaries’ current and former legal counsel (including Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxx LLP, Xxxxx, XxXxxxxx & Xxxxxx, P.C., DLA Piper LLP, Xxxxxxx & Xxxxxxxxx LLP and Xxxxxxxx Steifman LLP) (collectively, and each, “Company Counsel”) may serve as counsel to each and any of the Seller and its Non-Recourse Parties, in connection with any litigation, claim or obligation arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement notwithstanding such representation or any continued representation of any other Person (including the Seller and its direct or indirect equityholders), and each of the parties hereto (on behalf of itself and each of its Non-Recourse Parties) consents thereto and waives (to the extent waivable) any conflict of interest arising therefrom.

(b) The decision to represent any of the Seller and its Non-Recourse Parties shall be solely that of any such Company Counsel. Any attorney-client privilege, work product protection or expectation of confidentiality arising out of or as a result of any Company Counsel’s representing of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in any matter relating in any way to the Seller and its direct or indirect equityholders or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (collectively, the “Privileges”) shall survive the Closing and shall remain in full force and effect; provided, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any Company Document, the Privileges and all information, data, documents or communications, in any format and by whomever possessed, covered by or subject to any of the Privileges (collectively, “Privileged Materials”) shall, from and after the Closing, automatically be assigned and exclusively belong to, and be controlled by, the Seller. For the avoidance of doubt, as to any Privileged Materials, the Purchaser and the Company, together with any of their respective Affiliates, successors or assigns, agree that no such party may use or rely on any of the Privileged Materials in any action or claim against or involving any of the parties hereto or any of their respective Non-Recourse Parties after the Closing, and the Seller and its direct or indirect equityholders shall have the right to assert any of the Privileges against the Company and its Subsidiaries.

- 79 -

(c) The Company further agrees that, on its own behalf and on behalf of its Subsidiaries, any Company Counsel’s retention by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be deemed completed and terminated without any further action by any Person effective as of the Closing. The Company shall cause each of its Subsidiaries that are not signatories to this Agreement to fulfill and comply with the terms of this Section 13.13 and take any and all other steps necessary to effect the agreements in this Section 13.13.

13.14 Non-Recourse Parties. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or otherwise, the parties to this Agreement agree on their own behalf and on behalf of their respective Subsidiaries and Affiliates that (i) no Non-Recourse Party of a party to this Agreement shall have any liability relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated herein except to the extent agreed to in writing by such Non-Recourse Party and (ii) no Debt Financing Source shall have any liability to the Company relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated herein pursuant to this Agreement (provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the Purchaser and its respective Affiliates, as applicable, shall have recourse, and nothing in this Agreement shall in any way limit or modify the rights of the Purchaser and its Affiliates, as applicable, against, or the obligations of, the Debt Financing Sources pursuant to the terms of the definitive documentation with respect to the Debt Financing).

13.15 Deliveries to the Purchaser. The Purchaser agrees and acknowledges that all documents or other items delivered in writing (including by electronic mail) to the Purchaser or its representatives in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or uploaded and made available in the online “data room” maintained by Intralinks Inc. under the exchange name “Project Star” on or before the date that is one (1) Business Day prior to the date hereof shall be deemed to have been delivered, provided or made available to the Purchaser or its representatives for all purposes hereunder.

13.16 Conflict Between Transaction Documents. The parties hereto agree and acknowledge that to the extent any terms and provisions of this Agreement are in any way inconsistent with or in conflict with any term, condition or provision of any other agreement, document or instrument contemplated hereby, this Agreement shall govern and control.

13.17 Specific Performance.

(a) The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached, and that money damages (including any amounts payable pursuant to Section 9.02(b)) or legal remedies would not be an adequate remedy for any such damages. Therefore, it is accordingly agreed that, subject to the terms and conditions of Section 9.02(c), each party shall be entitled to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of any other party, in any court of competent jurisdiction, and appropriate injunctive relief shall be granted in connection therewith. Any party seeking an injunction, a decree or order of specific performance shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection therewith and any such remedy shall be in addition and not in substitution for any other remedy to which such party is entitled at law or in equity.

- 80 -

(b) The parties shall not assert that a remedy of specific performance or other equitable relief is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to law or inequitable for any reason, and shall not assert that a remedy of monetary damages (including any amounts payable pursuant to Section 9.02) would provide an adequate remedy or that the parties otherwise have an adequate remedy at law.

(c) Until such time as the Purchaser pays the Termination Fee in accordance with Section 9.02, the remedies available to the Company and the Seller pursuant to this Section 13.17 will be in addition to any other remedy to which they were entitled at law or in equity, and the election to pursue an injunction or specific performance will not restrict, impair or otherwise limit the Company or the Seller from seeking to collect or collecting the Termination Fee pursuant to Section 9.02.

(d) If, before the Outside Date, any party hereto brings any action to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions hereof by any other party, then the Outside Date will automatically be extended (i) for the period during which such action is pending and until such action has been finally resolved by a non-appealable ruling by a court or arbitrator of competent jurisdiction, plus ten (10) Business Days, or (ii) by such greater time period established by the court or arbitrator presiding over such action, as the case may be.

(e) Notwithstanding Section 13.17(a) or any other provision of this Agreement, it is explicitly agreed that the right of the Seller and the Company and the Representative to obtain an injunction, specific performance or other equitable remedies to cause the Purchaser to consummate the Closing shall be subject to the requirements that (i) all of the conditions to Closing set forth in Sections 3.01 and 3.03 were satisfied or waived (other than those conditions that by their nature may only be satisfied on the Closing Date or have not been satisfied solely as a result of the breach of this Agreement by the Purchaser) at the time when the Closing would have been required to occur in accordance with Section 2.02 and continue to be so satisfied or waived, and any such conditions to the Closing to be satisfied at the Closing will be so satisfied at the Closing (other than those conditions that by their nature may only be satisfied on the Closing Date or have not been satisfied solely as a result of the breach of this Agreement by the Purchaser), (ii) the Debt Financing or the Alternative Debt Financing is available to the Purchaser, and (iii) the Seller and the Company have irrevocably committed in writing to the Purchaser that if the Debt Financing or the Alternative Debt Financing is funded, the Seller and the Company stand ready, willing and able to consummate the Closing.

13.18 Relationship of the Parties. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute the parties hereto as joint venturers, alter egos, partners or participants in an unincorporated business or other separate entity, nor in any manner create any principal-agent, fiduciary or other special relationship between the parties hereto. No party shall have any duties (including fiduciary duties) towards any other party hereto except as specifically set forth herein.

13.19 Prevailing Party. Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.04(g), in any dispute arising out of or related to this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any dispute arbitrated under Section 13.12), any of the exhibits or schedules hereto, or any agreement, document, instrument or certificate contemplated hereby, or any transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, the applicable adjudicating body shall award to the prevailing party, if any, the costs and attorneys’ fees reasonably incurred by the prevailing party in connection with the dispute and the enforcement of its rights under this Agreement, any of the exhibits or schedules hereto, or any agreement, document, instrument or certificate contemplated hereby and, if the adjudicating body determines a party to be the prevailing party under circumstances where the prevailing party won on some but not all of the claims and counterclaims, the adjudicating body may award the prevailing party an appropriate percentage of the costs and attorneys’ fees reasonably incurred by the prevailing party in connection with the adjudication and the enforcement of its rights under this Agreement, any of the exhibits or schedules hereto, or any agreement, document, instrument or certificate contemplated hereby or thereby.

If a Valuation Firm is engaged pursuant to Section 2.04(d), the Purchaser and the Seller will instruct the Valuation Firm to analyze and resolve the dispute between the parties hereto in accordance with the following guidelines (which guidelines and relevant portions of this Agreement the Valuation Firm will be required to review and commit to acting in accordance with):

Timetable

The timetable for these proceedings will be governed by the following procedures:

	●	Within thirty (30) days of retaining the Valuation Firm, the Purchaser and the Seller shall each submit to the Valuation Firm five (5) copies of a memorandum (which may include supporting exhibits) setting forth their respective positions of all unresolved disputed items in accordance with Section 2.04(d) of this Agreement (each such memorandum, an “Initial Report”).

	●	Within one (1) Business Day upon receipt of both the Purchaser’s and the Seller’s Initial Reports, the Valuation Firm will distribute to the Purchaser and the Seller a copy of each other party’s Initial Report.

	●	Within fourteen (14) days of receiving the other party’s Initial Report from the Valuation Firm, each of the Purchaser and the Seller may (but shall not be required to) submit to the Valuation Firm five (5) copies of a memorandum responding to the Initial Report submitted to the Valuation Firm by the other party (each such memorandum, a “Rebuttal Report”). Any Rebuttal Report is to be responsive solely to the arguments raised, and information submitted, by the other party in its Initial Report, and no party may introduce new arguments or rely on new information in the Rebuttal Report that were not part of such party’s Initial Report, except to the extent such new arguments or new information are used in direct response to arguments raised and information submitted by the other party in its Initial Report.

	●	If either party submits a Rebuttal Report, the Valuation Firm will distribute to the Purchaser and the Seller, as applicable, a copy of the other party’s Rebuttal Report within one (1) Business Day upon receipt of either a Rebuttal Report or a notice waiving the right to file such report from both the Purchaser and the Seller.

	●	At any time before or within fifteen (15) days after the submission of the Initial Reports or any Rebuttal Reports by the Purchaser and the Seller, the Valuation Firm may submit written questions to either party following the procedures set forth below in the Section titled “Submission of Questions by the Valuation Firm.”

	●	Upon receipt of a Rebuttal Report or notice waiving the right to file such report from both the Purchaser and the Seller and receipt of all responses to any written questions submitted by the Valuation Firm (and responses thereto), the Valuation Firm will issue a report containing its findings within fifteen (15) days after the later of the date at which the Valuation Firm receives (i) both the Purchaser’s and the Seller’s Rebuttal Reports, or notice waiving the right to file such report, as applicable, or (ii) any responses from either party to any written questions submitted by the Valuation Firm to such party following the procedures set forth below in the Section titled “Submission of Questions by the Valuation Firm.”

	●	Unless requested by the Valuation Firm in writing pursuant to the terms of the Section titled “Submission of Questions by the Valuation Firm”, neither the Purchaser nor the Seller may present any additional information or arguments to the Valuation Firm, either orally or in writing.

	●	The Valuation Firm shall render its decision without conducting a hearing.

Submission of Questions by the Valuation Firm

After receiving both Initial Reports and Rebuttal Reports, if any, the Valuation Firm may submit written questions to the parties for written responses or may direct requests for additional information, calculations, or supporting documentation to the parties reasonably needed by the Valuation Firm in order to clarify or understand any position or argument made by a party in its Initial Report or Rebuttal Report, in which case the parties agree to cooperate with such requests (including by ensuring that the Valuation Firm is provided copies of all relevant records of the business in accordance with Section 2.04(d) of this Agreement) in the manner and procedural timing described in this paragraph.

If any such questions are addressed to only one (1) party, the Valuation Firm shall submit the questions to that party, with a copy to the other party. Once received, the party to whom the questions are addressed shall have five (5) Business Days to answer the Valuation Firm’s questions, and shall provide a copy of its written answers to the other party at the time they are provided to the Valuation Firm. In response thereto, the other party may, within five (5) Business Days, submit a response to such answer(s) to the Valuation Firm and shall provide a copy of such response to the other party at the time such response is provided to the Valuation Firm.

If any such questions are addressed to both parties, each party shall have five (5) Business Days from the date of receipt to respond to the Valuation Firm and shall provide a copy of its written answers to the other party at the time they are provided to the Valuation Firm. In response thereto, each party may, within five (5) Business Days, submit a response to the other party’s answer(s) to the Valuation Firm and shall provide a copy to the other party at the time such response is provided to the Valuation Firm.

Adjustment of Time Periods

If the due date for any written submissions to be submitted to the Valuation Firm falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the written submission shall take place on the next Business Day.
