responsibility as between Buyers and Sellers for certain tax matters following
the Closing Date:

cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed all Tax Returns for the
Company for all periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date which are filed
after the Closing Date. The Sellers shall permit the Buyers to review and
comment on each such Tax Return described in the preceding sentence prior to
filing.
(b) Tax Periods Beginning Before and Ending After the Closing Date. Buyers shall

such Tax Return described in the preceding sentence prior to filing. Sellers
shall pay to Buyers within fifteen (15) days after the date on which Taxes are
paid with respect to such periods an amount equal to the portion of such Taxes
which relates to the portion of such Taxable period ending on the Closing Date.
For purposes of this Section, in the case of any Taxes that are imposed on a
periodic basis and are payable for a Taxable period that includes (but does not
end on) the Closing Date, the portion of such Tax which relates to the portion
of such Taxable period ending on the Closing Date shall (x) in the case of any
Taxes other than Taxes based upon or related to income or receipts, 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 the entire
Taxable period, and (y) in the case of any Tax based upon or related to income
or receipts, be deemed equal to the amount which would be payable if the
relevant Taxable period ended on the Closing Date. Any credits relating to a
Taxable period that begins before and ends after the Closing Date shall be taken
into account as though the relevant Taxable period ended on the Closing Date.
All determinations necessary to give effect to the foregoing allocations shall
be made in a manner consistent with prior practice of the Company.
(c) Cooperation on Tax Matters.
(i) The Buyers, the Company and Sellers shall cooperate fully, as and to the
extent reasonably requested by the other party, in connection with the filing of

which are reasonably relevant to any such audit, litigation or other proceeding

additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. The
Company and the Sellers agree (A) to retain all books and records with respect
to Tax matters pertinent to the Company and its Subsidiaries relating to any
taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until the expiration of the
statute of limitations (and, to the extent notified by Buyers or Sellers, any
extensions thereof) of the respective taxable periods, and to abide by all
record retention agreements entered into with any taxing authority, and (B) to
give the other party reasonable written notice prior to transferring, destroying
or discarding any such books and records and, if the other party so requests,
the Company or the Sellers, as the case may be, shall allow the other party to
take possession of such books and records.
(ii) The Buyers and Sellers further agree, upon request, to use their best
efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any Governmental
Authority or any other Person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or
eliminate any Tax that could be imposed (including, but not limited to/ with
respect to the transactions contemplated hereby) without the imposition of a
countervailing Tax or loss of Tax attributes on or by the Party to whom such
request is directed.
(d) Tax Sharing Agreements. All tax sharing agreements or similar agreements
with respect to or involving the Company and its Subsidiaries shall be
terminated as of the Closing Date and, after the Closing Date, the Company and
its Subsidiaries shall not be bound thereby or have any liability thereunder.

relative levels of specificity) which the Party has not breached shall not

representation, warranty, or covenant. Nothing in the Disclosure Schedule shall

particularity and describes the relevant facts in detail. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the mere listing (or inclusion of a copy) of a

Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of
the provisions of this Agreement and to enforce specifically this Agreement and
the terms and provisions hereof in any action instituted in any court of the
United States or any state thereof having jurisdiction over the Parties and the
matter (subject to the provisions set forth in Section 10(p) below), in addition
to any other remedy to which they may be entitled, at law or in equity.
(p) Submission to Jurisdiction. Each of the Parties submits to the jurisdiction
of any state or federal court sitting in South Dakota, in any action or
proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement and agrees that all
claims in respect of the action or proceeding may be heard and determined in any
such court. Each of the Parties waives any defense of inconvenient forum to the
maintenance of any action or proceeding so brought and waives any bond, surety,
or other security that might be required of any other Party with respect
thereto. Any Party may make service on any other Party by sending or delivering
a copy of the process to the Party to be served at the address and in the manner
provided for the giving of notices in Section 10(h) above. Nothing in this
Section 10(p), however, shall affect the right of any Party to bring any action
or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any other court or
to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law or at equity. Each
Party agrees that a final judgment in any action or proceeding so brought shall
be conclusive and may be enforced by suit on the judgment or in any other manner
