Section 2. Adjustment to Purchase Price.

During the 30-day period following Seller’s receipt of the Preliminary Working Capital Statement, Buyer shall (i) permit Seller and its accountants to consult with Buyer’s accountants and (ii) provide to Seller and its accountants reasonable access during reasonable hours and under reasonable circumstances to all relevant books and records and any work papers relating to the preparation of the Preliminary Working Capital Statement, in each case as reasonably requested by Seller in connection with Seller’s review of the Preliminary Working Capital Statement.

(d) If Buyer and Seller are unable to resolve any disputed items set forth in the Notice of Disagreement within 30 days following Buyer’s receipt of such Notice of Disagreement (or such longer period as Buyer and Seller shall mutually agree in writing), such dispute shall be submitted to, and all unresolved issues having a bearing on such dispute shall be resolved by, (i) KPMG US LLP or (ii) in the event such accounting firm is unable or unwilling to take such assignment, a nationally recognized accounting firm mutually agreed upon by Buyer and Seller or, if Buyer and Seller cannot agree on an accounting firm within 45 days after timely delivery of a Notice of Disagreement (or such longer period as Buyer and Seller shall mutually agree in writing), each of Buyer and Seller shall select a nationally recognized accounting firm and such two accounting firms shall designate a third nationally recognized accounting firm that neither presently is, nor in the past two years has been, engaged by either Party. KPMG US LLP, the accounting firm so agreed to by Buyer and Seller or the third accounting firm so selected by the two accounting firms is hereinafter referred to as the “Accounting Firm.” Buyer and Seller shall submit to the Accounting Firm for review and resolution all matters (but only such matters) that are set forth in the Notice of Disagreement which remain in dispute. Buyer and Seller shall instruct the Accounting Firm to select one of its partners experienced in purchase price adjustment disputes to make a final determination of Net Working Capital and the Net Working Capital Deficit, if any, or the Net Working Capital Surplus, if any, based solely on the items that are in dispute as set forth in the Notice of Disagreement. Buyer and Seller shall instruct the Accounting Firm that, in resolving the items in the Notice of Disagreement that are still in dispute and in determining Net Working Capital and the Net Working Capital Deficit, if any, or the Net Working Capital Surplus, if any, the Accounting Firm shall (A) not assign to any item in dispute a value that is (1) greater than the greatest value for such item assigned by Buyer, on the one hand, or Seller, on the other hand or (2) less than the smallest value for such item assigned by Buyer, on the one hand, or Seller, on the other hand, (B) make its determination based on an independent review (which will be in accordance with the guidelines and procedures set forth in this Agreement) and, if requested by Buyer or Seller, a one (1)-day conference concerning the dispute, at which conference each of Buyer and Seller shall have the right to present their respective positions with respect to the dispute and have present their respective advisors, counsel and accountants, (C) render a final resolution in writing to Buyer and Seller (which final resolution shall be requested by Buyer and Seller to be delivered not more than 45 days following submission of such disputed matters), which shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties with respect to Net Working Capital and the Net Working Capital Deficit or Net Working Capital Surplus, if any, and (D) provide a written report to Buyer and Seller, if requested by either of them, which sets forth in reasonable detail the basis for the Accounting Firm’s final determination. The fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be allocated between Buyer, on the one hand, and Seller, on the other hand, based upon the percentage by which the portion of the contested amount not awarded to each of Buyer and Seller bears to the amount actually contested by such Party.

(e) The Preliminary Working Capital Statement shall be deemed final for the purposes of this Section 2.5 upon the earliest of (i) the failure of Seller to notify Buyer of a dispute within 30 days after Seller receives the Preliminary Working Capital Statement, (ii) the resolution of all disputes, pursuant to Section 2.5(c), by Buyer and Seller and (iii) the resolution of all disputes, pursuant to Section 2.5(d), by the Accounting Firm. The Preliminary Working Capital Statement, as finalized in accordance with this Section 2.5, is referred to herein as the “Final Working Capital Statement.”

(f) Within 10 days following the determination of the Final Working Capital Statement in accordance with Section 2.5(e):

(i) If there is a Net Working Capital Deficit as finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.5, then Buyer shall be entitled to recover an amount equal to such deficit from the Adjustment Escrow Fund; provided, however, that to the extent, if any, that such deficit exceeds the Adjustment Escrow Fund, then Seller shall pay the amount of such excess to Buyer. In accordance with the foregoing, Seller and Buyer shall promptly deliver a joint written instruction to the Escrow Agent instructing it to release (A) to Buyer or its designee, from the Adjustment Escrow Fund, an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the Net Working Capital Deficit, if any or (ii) the Adjustment Escrow Fund and (B) if an amount remains in the Adjustment Escrow Fund after giving effect to the foregoing clause “(A),” the remaining amount of the Adjustment Escrow Fund to Seller.

(ii) If there is a Net Working Capital Surplus as finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.5, then (A) Seller and Buyer shall promptly deliver a joint written instruction to the Escrow Agent instructing it to release the Adjustment Escrow Fund to Seller, and (B) Buyer shall also pay to Seller an amount equal to the lesser of (X) the amount of the Net Working Capital Surplus, and (Y) Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000).

(g) All payments required under this Section 2.5 shall be made in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such bank account(s) as shall be designated in writing by the recipient(s) at least three Business Days prior to the applicable payment date.

(h) Any payments by Buyer required under this Section 2.5 shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

(c) If the sale of the Senior Notes by Ascribe in accordance with Section 7.1(b) or Section 7.1(d)(ii) results in a sale price for the Senior Notes (the “Sale Price”) less than the Par Value of the Senior Notes as of the date of such sale, Ascribe shall pay to Seller, in cash, the amount equal to the excess of the Par Value over the Sale Price (the “Make-Whole Payment”). If the Sale Price for the Senior Notes is equal to or greater than the Par Value of the Senior Notes, then Ascribe shall not be obligated to pay, and Seller shall not be entitled to receive, any Make-Whole Payment. Furthermore, if the Sale Price for the Senior Notes is greater than the Par Value of the Senior Notes, then the amount equal to the excess of the Sale Price over the Par Value shall be paid to, or retained by, Ascribe (and Ascribe acknowledges and agrees that it shall take into account the amount of such excess it receives or retains for income tax reporting purposes). If Ascribe is unable to sell the Senior Notes as and when required pursuant to this Section 7.1, then Ascribe shall purchase the Senior Notes, for cash, at Par Value within fifteen (15) Business Days following the Redemption Date.

(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 7.1 to the contrary,

(i) Seller shall have the right and continuing option to sell the Senior Notes at any time during the Holding Period; provided, however, that if Seller sells the Senior Notes during the Holding Period, Seller shall not be entitled to any Make-Whole Payment; and

(ii) Ascribe shall have the right and continuing option to cause Seller to sell the Senior Notes at any time during the Holding Period; provided, that, if Ascribe exercises its option pursuant to this Section 7.1(d)(ii), Ascribe shall arrange for the sale of the Senior Notes as agent for Seller. If the sale of the Senior Notes in accordance with this Section 7.1(d)(ii) results in a Sale Price less than the Par Value of the Senior Notes, Ascribe shall pay to Seller the applicable Make-Whole Payment.

(e) Any amounts payable to Seller under this Section 7.1 shall be paid to Seller within ten (10) Business Days following the sale of the Senior Notes pursuant to this Section 7.1.

(f) At all times at and following the Closing, Ascribe shall cause the Ascribe Funds to reserve sufficient capital commitments to cover Ascribe’s potential payment obligations to Seller pursuant to Section 7.1(c) or Section 7.1(d)(ii), in a minimum amount equal to the Par Value of the Senior Notes. In the event a payment is required to be made by Ascribe to Seller pursuant to Section 7.1(c) or Section 7.1(d)(ii), Ascribe will cause the Ascribe Funds to fund the amount of such payment, which shall be paid directly or indirectly by Ascribe to Seller in accordance with this Section 7.1.

(g) At all times following the Closing, if Ascribe arranges for the sale of the Senior Notes as agent for Seller, Seller shall provide such cooperation as shall reasonably be requested by Ascribe to facilitate and execute the sale of the Senior Notes, including, without limitation, establishing one or more accounts at financial institutions requested by Ascribe, providing know your customer and other information requested by any such financial institution and providing such documents and signatures as may be required in connection with the sale or transfer of the Senior Notes.

Section 7.2 Tax Matters.

(a) Tax Returns. Following the Closing, Seller shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed, at the expense of Seller, all Tax Returns for the Group Companies for all Tax Periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date that are required to be filed after the Closing Date. Such Tax Returns shall be prepared in a manner consistent with the past practices of the Group Companies, except as otherwise required by applicable Tax Law or changes in facts. Seller shall permit Buyer to review and comment on such Tax Returns (together, with schedules, statements and, to the extent requested by Buyer, supporting documentation) at least 30 days prior to the due date for filing (including extensions) of such Tax Returns and shall revise such Tax Returns to reflect any reasonable comments made by Buyer prior to the filing of such Tax Returns. If any such Tax Return must be signed by Buyer, any Affiliate thereof or the Group Companies (or any representative of the foregoing), Buyer agrees that it will, or will cause such other parties to, cooperate fully and punctually in signing such Tax Return in order to permit the timely filing of such Tax Return. Following the Closing, Buyer shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed, at the expense of Buyer, all Tax Returns for the Group Companies for all Straddle Periods. Such Tax Returns shall be prepared in a manner consistent with the past practices of the Group Companies, except as otherwise required by applicable Tax Law or changes in facts. Buyer shall permit Seller to review and comment on such Tax Returns (together, with schedules, statements and, to the extent requested by Seller, supporting documentation) at least 30 days prior to the due date for filing (including extensions) of such Tax Returns and shall revise such Tax Returns to reflect any reasonable comments made by Seller prior to the filing of such Tax Returns, but only to the extent the failure to include such comments could reasonably be expected to increase the Liability of the Seller for Taxes pursuant to this Agreement. Any amended Tax Return of the Group Companies or claim for Tax refund on behalf of the Group Companies for any Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be filed, or caused to be filed, only by Seller. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary anywhere in this Agreement, the Parties agree that all Transaction Deductions will be reported in Pre-Closing Tax Periods (and otherwise treated as attributable to Pre-Closing Tax Periods) to the extent permitted by Law.

(b) Straddle Period. Taxes for any Tax Period of the Group Companies that includes but does not end on the Closing Date (each such period, a “Straddle Period”) shall be allocated for all purposes of this Agreement (i) to the Pre-Closing Tax Period for the portion of the Straddle Period up to and including the close of business on the Closing Date and (ii) to the Post-Closing Tax Period for the portion of the Straddle Period subsequent to the Closing Date. For that purpose, (A) real, personal and intangible property Taxes and any other Taxes levied on an annual or other periodic basis (“Per Diem Taxes”) of the Group Companies for a Straddle Period shall be allocated between the periods described in clauses “(i)” and “(ii)” of the preceding sentence on a per diem basis based on the number of days during the Straddle Period ending with and including the Closing Date and number of days during the Straddle Period commencing on the day after the Closing Date and (B) Taxes that are not Per Diem Taxes, including income Taxes and any transactional Taxes such as Taxes based on sales or revenue, of the Group Companies for a Straddle Period shall be allocated between the periods described in clauses “(i)” and “(ii)” of the preceding sentence as if such Tax Period ended as of the close of business on the Closing Date. For purposes of clause “(B)” of the preceding sentence, any allocation of gross or net income or deductions or other items required to determine any Taxes attributable to such a Straddle Period shall be made by means of a closing of the books and records of the Group Companies as of the close of the Closing Date, provided, that exemptions, allowances and deductions that are calculated on an annual basis (including depreciation and amortization deductions) shall be allocated between the period ending on the Closing Date and the period after the Closing Date in proportion to the number of days in each such period.

(c) Transfer Taxes. Any and all Transfer Taxes shall be split between Buyer and Seller equally. Seller shall timely and accurately file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to Transfer Taxes or fees (the “Transfer Tax Returns”) and timely pay all such Transfer Taxes. If required by applicable Tax Law, Buyer will join in the execution of any Transfer Tax Return.

(d) Cooperation. Buyer, the Group Companies and Seller and their respective Affiliates shall cooperate, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other Party, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns pursuant to this Section 7.2, any Audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes, and other Tax matters addressed by this Section 7.2. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other Party’s request) the provision of records and information which are reasonably relevant to any such Tax matters and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. The Group Companies shall retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Group Companies relating to any Tax Periods commencing on or before the Closing Date and shall abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any Tax Authority, and shall give Seller reasonable written notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any such books and records prior to the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations for that Tax Period, and, if Seller so requests, the Group Companies shall allow Seller to take possession of such books and records rather than destroying or discarding such books and records.

(e) Dispute Resolution. Any dispute, controversy, or claim between Buyer, on the one hand, and Seller, on the other hand, arising out of or relating to the provisions of this Agreement that relates to Taxes that cannot be resolved by negotiations between Buyer and Seller shall be submitted to the Accounting Firm for resolution. The Accounting Firm shall control the proceedings related to the dispute resolution and may request such evidence and information as it deems necessary. The Accounting Firm shall determine (it being understood that in making such determination, the Accounting Firm shall be functioning as an expert and not as an arbitrator), based solely on written submissions by Buyer and Seller and not by independent review, only those issues in dispute and shall render a written report as to the resolution of the dispute and the resulting computation of any Tax, fee, deduction or other amount in dispute which, absent manifest error, shall be conclusive and binding on Buyer, Seller and their respective Affiliates. In resolving any disputed item, the Accounting Firm may not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value for such items claimed by either Party or less than the smallest value for such items claimed by either Party. The fees, costs and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be allocated to and borne by Buyer and Seller, based on the inverse of the percentage that the Accounting Firm’s determination (before such allocation) bears to the total amount of the total items in dispute as originally submitted to the Accounting Firm. For example, should the items in dispute total an amount equal to $1,000 and should the Accounting Firm award $600 in favor of Seller’s position, 60% of the costs of its review would be borne by Buyer and 40% of the costs would be borne by Seller.

(f) Seller’s Indemnification for Taxes. Seller agrees to indemnify Buyer for (i) any Pre-Closing Taxes; (ii) any income Taxes of any member of an affiliated, consolidated, combined or unitary group of which any of the Group Companies (or their predecessors) is or was a member on or prior to the Closing Date, pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-6 or any analogous or similar state, local or non-U.S. Law or regulation and (iii) the failure of Seller to perform any covenant contained in this Agreement with respect to Taxes, including this Section 7.2, in each case, only if and to the extent such Taxes are not taken into account as a Liability in the calculation of Net Working Capital. Any indemnity payment under this Agreement shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

(g) Certain Refunds and Other Tax Benefits. Any Tax refunds that are received by Buyer or the Group Companies, and any amounts credited against Tax to which Buyer or the Group Companies become entitled, that relate to a Pre-Closing Tax Period of the Group Companies shall be for the account of Seller, and Buyer shall pay over to Seller any such refund or the amount of any such credit within 15 days after receipt or entitlement thereto, except to the extent such refund or credit was treated as a current asset on the Final Working Capital Statement.

Section 7.3 Employees; Employee Benefits.

(a) For the 12-month period following the Closing Date (the “Continuation Period”), Buyer shall provide, or shall cause the Company to continue providing, to each individual who is a Business Employee as of the Closing (each, a “Continuing Employee”): (i) a base salary or hourly wage rate, as applicable, that is at least equal to the base salary or hourly wage rate provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing, (ii) annual or other short-term cash bonus opportunities (for the avoidance of doubt, excluding equity and equity based rights) that are substantially comparable to those provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to Closing, and (iii) medical and defined contribution retirement benefits that are substantially comparable, in the aggregate, to those provided to similarly situated employees of Buyer or its Affiliates. If Buyer terminates, or causes the Company to terminate, any Continuing Employee in the 6-month period following the Closing Date (each, a “Terminated Employee”), Buyer or the Company, as the case may be, shall provide to such Terminated Employee the amount of severance, as determined by Buyer in good faith, to which such Terminated Employee would have been entitled under the Company’s existing severance plan in place as of the Closing Date.

(b) For all purposes, including vesting, eligibility to participate and level of benefits (other than benefits under defined benefit pension plans) under the Employee Benefit Plans of Buyer or its Affiliates (as applicable) providing benefits to Continuing Employees after the Closing in which such Continuing Employees are eligible to participate (the “New Plans”), each Continuing Employee in such plans shall be credited with his or her years of service with the Company and its predecessors prior to the Closing, to the same extent as such Continuing Employee was entitled, before the Closing, to credit for such service under any similar Employee Benefit Plan in which such Continuing Employee participated or was eligible to participate immediately prior to the Closing (such plans, collectively, the “Old Plans”); provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply to the extent that its application would result in a duplication of benefits with respect to the same period of service. In addition, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Buyer shall undertake commercially reasonable efforts to provide that (i) each Continuing Employee shall be immediately eligible to participate, without any waiting time, in any and all New Plans to the extent coverage under any such New Plan replaces coverage under any Old Plan and (ii) for purposes of each New Plan providing medical, dental, pharmaceutical, vision, disability, life insurance and/or other welfare benefits to any Continuing Employee (collectively, the “New Welfare Plans”), Buyer shall cause (A) all pre-existing conditions, exclusions or limitations, eligibility waiting periods and actively-at-work requirements of such New Welfare Plans to be waived for such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents (to the extent such conditions, exclusions, limitations, periods and requirements were waived or satisfied as of immediately prior to the Closing under comparable Old Plans), and (B) any eligible expenses incurred by each Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents during the portion of the plan year of the Old Plan ending on the date such Continuing Employee’s participation in the corresponding New Welfare Plan begins to be taken into account under such New Welfare Plan for purposes of satisfying all deductible, co-payment, coinsurance and maximum out-of-pocket requirements applicable to such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents for the applicable plan year as if such amounts had been paid in accordance with such New Welfare Plan.

(c) As of the Closing, Seller and its Affiliates (other than the Group Companies) shall assume and/or retain sponsorship of and be solely responsible for all Liabilities relating to or at any time arising under or in connection with or pursuant to any Employee Benefit Plan or other plan, program, arrangement, or agreement providing compensation or benefits to any current or former director, officer, employee or other service provider of Seller or its Affiliates.

(d) Nothing contained in this Section 7.3 or elsewhere in this Agreement, express or implied, shall confer upon any current or former Business Employee or Business Service Provider any right to continued employment or service (or resumed employment or service) subsequent to the Closing. This Section 7.3 shall operate exclusively for the benefit of the Parties and not for the benefit of any other Person, including any current or former Business Employees or the Continuing Employees, which Persons shall have no rights to enforce this Section 7.3 of this Agreement. Nothing in this Section 7.3 shall: (i) create any third party rights in any current or former Business Employee or Business Service Provider (including any beneficiary or dependent thereof) or (ii) be treated as an amendment of any Employee Benefit Plan or restrict the ability of the Parties or their Affiliates to amend, modify, discontinue or terminate any Employee Benefit Plan or any other employee benefit plan, practice or policy established or maintained by the Parties or their Affiliates.

Section 7.4 Confidentiality. As of the Closing Date, the Confidentiality Agreement shall be terminated and have no further force or effect.

Section 7.5 Noncompetition.

(a) During the period commencing on the Closing Date until the 2-year anniversary of the Closing Date and subject to Section 7.5(b), without the express, prior written consent of Buyer, Seller and its Affiliates agree not to, directly or indirectly, including as partner, member, stockholder or investor or in any other capacity, own, control, manage, operate or participate in, the Business.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in Section 7.5(a) shall prohibit Seller or its Affiliates from acquiring (or owning or operating after its acquisition) any diversified business that engages in the Business so long as (i) the closing of such business acquisition occurs at least 12 months after the date of this Agreement and (ii) such business’ revenues derived from the Business for its fiscal year prior to when the acquisition occurs constitute no more than 10% of such business’ revenues for such fiscal year.

(c) Seller and Buyer agree that the terms of the covenants in this Section 7.5 are fair and reasonable with respect to its duration, geographical area and scope, are necessary to accomplish the full transfer of the goodwill and other intangible assets contemplated hereby, and were a material and necessary inducement for Purchaser to agree to the transactions herein contemplated. In the event that any provision contained in Section 7.5 shall be determined by any court of competent jurisdiction or any Governmental Entity to be unenforceable for any reason whatsoever (including in relation to duration or the scope of the activities covered thereby), then the Parties agree that the court should redefine such covenant so as to comply with applicable Law, it being specifically agreed by the Parties that it is each of their continuing desire that each covenant in this Section 7.5 be enforced to the full extent of its terms and conditions.

Section 7.6 R&W Policy. Exhibit 7.6 sets forth the binder for the R&W Policy. The R&W Policy shall provide that the insurers thereunder may not seek to or enforce any subrogation rights it might have against Seller (except in the case of Fraud by Seller), which provision shall not be amended by Buyer following the Closing in a manner that would adversely affect the rights or obligations of Seller hereunder or thereunder without the prior written consent of Seller.

Section 7.7 Access to Excluded Facilities.

(a) For a period of 60 days after the Closing Date, (i) Seller shall afford (and shall cause its Affiliates, employees, representatives and agents to afford) to Buyer and its Affiliates, employees, representatives and agents reasonable access to leased land, buildings, improvements and facilities set forth on Schedule 7.7 (the “Excluded Facilities”), upon advance written notice and during normal business hours for the purpose of removing, at Seller’s sole cost and expense, the inventory set forth on Schedule 7.7 that is physically located at any Excluded Facility.

(b) To the fullest extent permitted by Law:

(i) Seller and its Affiliates, employees, representatives and agents shall (A) not be responsible or liable to Buyer for personal injuries or property damage sustained by Buyer or its Affiliates, employees, representatives and agents in connection with the access provided pursuant to this Section 7.7 and (B) shall be indemnified and held harmless by Buyer for any Losses suffered by any such Persons in connection with any such personal injuries and property damages, EXCEPTING LOSSES ACTUALLY RESULTING ON THE ACCOUNT OF THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF SELLER; and

(ii) Buyer and its Affiliates, employees, representatives and agents shall (A) not be responsible or liable to Seller for personal injuries or property damage sustained by Seller or their respective Affiliates, employees, representatives and agents in connection with the access provided pursuant to this Section 7.7 and (B) shall be indemnified and held harmless by Seller for any Losses suffered by any such Persons in connection with any such personal injuries and property damage, EXCEPTING LOSSES ACTUALLY RESULTING ON THE ACCOUNT OF THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF BUYER; provided, however, that Buyer shall indemnify Seller and its respective Affiliates, employees, representatives and agents for any property damage sustained to the Excluded Facilities in connection with Buyer’s exercise of its rights under Section 7.7(a), and any such property damage shall be recoverable from Buyer.

Section 7.8 Access to Information; Confidentiality.

(a) In connection with Buyer’s filing obligations under applicable securities Laws, Seller and its Affiliates shall cooperate with Buyer and shall (i) give Buyer and its authorized representatives reasonable access to the books, records, work papers, offices and other facilities and properties of the Group Companies, (ii) permit Buyer to make such inspections thereof as Buyer may reasonably request and (iii) cause the officers of each of the Group Companies to furnish Buyer with such financial and operations data and other information as Buyer may reasonably request; provided, however, that any such investigation shall be conducted during normal business hours under the supervision of the applicable personnel of Seller, the Company or their Affiliates and in such a manner as to not interfere unreasonably with the operations of the Group Companies. Neither Seller nor the Group Companies shall be under any obligation to disclose to Buyer (A) any information the disclosure of which is restricted by Contract or Law, (B) any information that, in the reasonable judgment of Seller or the Group Companies, as the case may be, would result in the disclosure of any trade secrets or competitively sensitive information or (C) any information that consists of accounting workpapers or that may adversely affect the attorney-client privilege of Seller or the Group Companies, as the case may be; provided, however, that Seller and the Group Companies shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide appropriate substitute arrangements in circumstances where this sentence applies.

(b) Following the Closing, the Parties shall cooperate with each other reasonably and in good faith, and in a timely manner, in connection with all Seller Litigation matters, by providing access to all such information and people as may be reasonably requested by any Party with respect to such matters.

(c) Following the Closing, the Seller and its Affiliates shall treat all documents and other information concerning the Group Companies, including all documents and information furnished to Buyer in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, (together, “Confidential Information”) as confidential and refrain from using any Confidential Information. In the event that Seller or any of its Affiliates or representatives is requested or required pursuant to a written or oral question or request for information or documents in any Action to disclose any Confidential Information by judicial or administrative process or by other requirements of any applicable Law, Seller will notify Buyer promptly of the request or requirement, so Buyer may seek an appropriate protective order. If, in the absence of a protective order, Seller or such Affiliate is, on the advice of counsel, required or compelled to disclose any such Confidential Information by judicial or administration process or by other requirements of any applicable Law, Seller or such Affiliate may disclose such Confidential Information to the extent so required to be disclosed, without liability hereunder; provided, however that Seller and its Affiliates shall reasonably cooperate with Buyer’s efforts (if any) to obtain a protective order or other assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such portion of the Confidential Information required to be disclosed. Confidential Information does not include information that is generally available to the public immediately prior to the time of disclosure unless such Confidential Information is so available due to the actions of Seller or any of its respective Affiliates or representatives.

Section 7.9 Interest Reimbursement. Upon the receipt of the first payment of interest in the full amount of $1,843,625 on the Senior Notes (that is payable with respect to the time period beginning October 1, 2019 and ending March 31, 2020) after Seller takes delivery of the Senior Notes from Ascribe, Seller shall, not more than two Business Days after the receipt of such payment, pay by wire transfer to the bank account or accounts designated by Buyer, $1,466,793 to Buyer, which shall represent a reimbursement of the interest accrued upon the Senior Notes prior to the Senior Notes being delivered to Seller pursuant to this Agreement.

Following the Closing, Buyer shall reimburse Seller and its Affiliates for any post-Closing payments (including deductible payments or any payments that erode retention amounts under insurance coverage policies, and other non-insured payments) made by Seller or its Affiliates on account of any claims or litigation matters set forth on Schedule 3.11, exclusive, however, of any Seller Litigation. Buyer shall make such reimbursement payments promptly following receipt of an invoice therefor (accompanied by reasonable supporting documentation) from Seller. For clarity, neither Seller not its Affiliates shall be entitled to reimbursement for any such payments made prior to the Closing Date.

The Losses of the Seller Indemnified Parties described in this Section 9.3 and the Losses of the Seller Indemnified Parties described in Section 9.4 hereof as to which the Seller Indemnified Parties are entitled to indemnification are collectively referred to as “Seller Losses.”

Section 9.4 Indemnification Obligations of Ascribe and Seller.

(a) Subject to the provisions of this Article IX, Ascribe shall indemnify and hold harmless each of the Seller Indemnified Parties from, against and in respect of any and all Losses arising out of:

(i) any breach of any representation or warranty made by Ascribe in Article VI; and

(ii) any breach of any covenant, agreement or undertaking made by Ascribe in Section 2.3(b), Section 7.1 and Section 8.4 of this Agreement; provided, however, that Ascribe’s sole covenant, agreement or undertaking with respect to the Senior Notes under Section 2.3(b) and Section 8.4 of this Agreement is to assign the Senior Notes to Seller free and clear of all Liens created by, through or under Ascribe and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement Ascribe shall have no liability or obligation arising out of or relating to any acts or omissions by, or the status of, or any facts pertaining to, Seller or Buyer.

(b) Subject to the provisions of this Article IX, Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless each of the Ascribe Indemnified Parties from, against and in respect of any and all Losses arising out of any breach of any covenant, agreement or undertaking made by Seller in Section 7.1(g) of this Agreement.

(c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the maximum liability of Ascribe to the Seller Indemnified Parties or of Seller to the Ascribe Indemnified Parties under this Agreement shall be an amount equal to the Make-Whole Payment, plus the proceeds of the sale, transfer or other disposition of the Senior Notes in the event Ascribe acts as agent for Seller, and plus the reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses) incurred by the Indemnified Party in enforcing its rights against Ascribe or Seller, as the case may be, under this Agreement.

Section 9.5 Indemnification Procedure.

(a) Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Party of notice from a third party of a threatened or filed complaint or the threatened or actual commencement of any audit, investigation, action or proceeding (a “Third Party Claim”) with respect to which such Indemnified Party may be entitled to indemnification hereunder, such Indemnified Party shall provide written notification to Buyer, Seller or Ascribe, as the case may be, but in any event not later than 30 calendar days after receipt of such notice of such Third Party Claim, whichever is the appropriate indemnifying Party hereunder (the “Indemnifying Party”); provided, however, that the failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party from liability under this Agreement with respect to such claim only if, and only to the extent that, such failure to notify the Indemnifying Party results in (i) the forfeiture by the Indemnifying Party of rights and defenses otherwise available to the Indemnifying Party with respect to such claim or (ii) material prejudice to the Indemnifying Party with respect to such claim. Buyer shall have the right, at its sole discretion, to control the defense of any Third Party Claim that (1) relates to the Business or the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, including those asserted on behalf of a customer or supplier of any Group Company, (2) seeks an injunction or other equitable relief against any Group Company or with respect to the Business or (3) alleges criminal liability with respect to any Group Company (together, the “Buyer Controlled Claims”), including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to Seller and the payment of the fees and disbursements of such counsel, and, to the extent that a Buyer Controlled Claim is required to be indemnified by Seller pursuant to Section 9.2, Buyer’s reasonable expenses related to the defense of a Buyer Controlled Claim shall be borne and paid exclusively by Seller; provided, Seller shall have the right to participate in the defense of any Buyer Controlled Claim with counsel selected by them subject to Buyer’s right to control the defense thereof and Seller’s reasonable expenses related to such participation in a Buyer Controlled Claim shall be borne and paid exclusively by Seller. The Buyer Indemnified Parties shall at all times use reasonable efforts to keep Seller reasonably apprised of the status of any Buyer Controlled Claim and to cooperate in good faith with each other with respect to the defense of any such matter. For any Third Party Claim that is not a Buyer Controlled Claim, upon written notice to the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim at the Indemnifying Party’s sole expense and with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party; provided, that the Indemnified Party may join in the defense of such Third Party Claim at its sole expense and with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnifying Party.

(b) No Indemnified Party may settle or compromise any claim or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to which indemnification is being sought hereunder without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(c) If an Indemnified Party claims a right to payment pursuant to this Agreement not involving a Third-Party Claim, such Indemnified Party shall send written notice of such claim to the Indemnifying Party, but in any event not later than 30 calendar days after the Indemnified Party becomes aware of such claim. Such notice shall specify in reasonable detail the basis for such claim. As promptly as possible after the Indemnified Party has given such notice, such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall establish the merits and amount of such claim (by mutual agreement, arbitration, litigation or otherwise) and, within five Business Days of the final determination of the merits and amount of such claim, the Indemnifying Party shall pay to the Indemnified Party immediately available funds in an amount equal to such claim as determined hereunder, if any.

Section 9.6 Liability Limits. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, Seller’s obligation to indemnify, defend and hold the Buyer Indemnified Parties harmless shall be limited as follows:

(a) no amounts of indemnity shall be payable pursuant to Section 9.2(a) unless and until the Buyer Indemnified Parties shall have suffered Buyer Losses in excess of $468,500 (the “Deductible Amount”) in the aggregate, in which case the Buyer Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to recover only Buyer Losses in excess of the Deductible Amount; provided, however, that Buyer Losses arising under Section 9.2(a) to the extent based on (i) Fundamental Representations or (ii) Fraud shall not, in each case, be subject to the Deductible Amount;

(b) in no event shall the aggregate amount of indemnity required to be paid by Seller pursuant to Section 9.2(a) exceed the Cap Amount; provided, that the limitation set forth in this Section 9.6(b) shall not apply to (i) Fraud (it being understood that there shall be no limitation on the liability of Indemnifying Parties directly or indirectly involved in any Fraud) or (ii) the matters referred in Section 9.2(b) through Section 9.2(i);

(c) no Losses may be claimed by any Buyer Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 9.2(h) or shall be reimbursable by, Seller, other than Buyer Losses in excess of One Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($150,000) (the “Environmental Threshold Amount”) resulting from a single claim or aggregated claims;

(d) in no event shall the aggregate amount of indemnity required to be paid by Seller pursuant to Section 9.2(h) exceed Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000);

(e) notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 9.2, but subject to the other limitations contained in this Article IX, any liability for indemnification obligations for Buyer Losses under Section 9.2(a) shall be satisfied solely up to the Cap Amount and, in the event that a claim for indemnification is made pursuant to Section 9.2 in excess of the Cap Amount, then such Buyer Losses will remain unsatisfied other than as covered by the R&W Policy and no Buyer Indemnified Party shall be entitled to recover any such shortfalls from Seller;

(f) for purposes of computing the aggregate amount of indemnifiable claims against Seller, the amount of each claim for Buyer Losses by a Buyer Indemnified Party shall be deemed to be an amount equal to, and any payments by Seller pursuant to Section 9.2 shall be limited to, the amount of such Buyer Losses that remain after deducting therefrom any third party insurance proceeds and any indemnity, contributions or other similar payment payable;

(g) the amount of indemnity payable pursuant to Section 9.2 with respect to any Buyer Loss shall be reduced to the extent such Buyer Loss is reflected on the Final Working Capital Statement;

(h) any Indemnified Party that becomes aware of a Loss for which it seeks indemnification under this Article IX shall be required to use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate such Loss and an Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any Loss to the extent that it is attributable to the Indemnified Party’s failure to mitigate following a reasonable request;

(i) in any case where a Buyer Indemnified Party recovers from any third party any amount in respect of a matter with respect to which Seller has made indemnification payments to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement, such Buyer Indemnified Party shall promptly pay over to Seller the lesser of the amount so recovered and the aggregate of such indemnification payments;

(j) the liability of Seller for Buyer Losses shall be considered in the aggregate and shall be determined on a cumulative basis so that all Buyer Losses incurred under Article IX shall be combined for purposes of determining limitations on liability, including the maximum liability amounts described above;

(k) in any claim for indemnification under this Agreement, no Party shall be required to indemnify any Person for punitive or exemplary damages, except to the extent such damages are payable pursuant to a Third-Party Claim;

(l) any indemnity payment under this Agreement shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for U.S. federal income tax purposes; and

(m) for the avoidance of doubt, this Section 9.6 shall not apply to any liability for indemnification obligation arising under Section 7.2(f).

Section 9.7 Knowledge Not Affected. Seller hereby agrees that (a) the Buyer Indemnified Parties’ right to indemnification, compensation and reimbursement contained in this Article IX relating to the representations and warranties of or relating to Seller or any Group Company are part of the basis of the bargain contemplated by this Agreement and (b) such representations and warranties (as modified by disclosures in the Schedules) and the rights and remedies that may be exercised by the Buyer Indemnified Parties with respect thereto, shall not be waived, limited or otherwise affected by or as a result of (and Buyer shall be deemed to have relied upon such representations and warranties (as modified by disclosures in the Schedules) any knowledge on the part of any of Buyer, its Affiliates or any of their representatives, regardless of whether obtained through any investigation by Buyer, its Affiliates or any of their representatives through disclosure by Seller, any Group Company or any other Person (other than as set forth in the Schedules), and regardless of whether such knowledge was obtained before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement.

Section 9.8 Election of Claims. In the event that any Party alleges that they are entitled to indemnification hereunder, and that Party’s claim is covered under more than one provision of this Agreement, such Party shall be entitled to elect the provision or provisions under which it may bring a claim for indemnification. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the existence of multiple applicable provisions of this Agreement permit an Indemnified Party to recover the amount of any Losses suffered by such Party more than once.

Section 9.9 Exclusive Remedies. Except as provided for in Section 7.2(f), the Parties acknowledge and agree that following the Closing, (a) the indemnification provisions of this Article IX shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of the Parties for any breach by the other party of the representations and warranties in this Agreement and for any failure by the other party to perform or comply with the covenants or agreements contemplated by this Agreement, except (i) that if any of the covenants or agreements contemplated by this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their terms, the parties shall be entitled to specific performance of the terms of the terms thereof and (ii) in the case of Fraud shall not be so limited and (b) no breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained herein shall give rise to any right on the part of any Party to rescind this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated.

Section 10.17 Privilege; Counsel. King & Spalding LLP has been engaged by the Group Companies and Seller to represent them in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Buyer (on its behalf and on behalf of its Affiliates) hereby (a) agrees that, in the event that a dispute arises after the Closing between Buyer or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and Seller, on the other hand, with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, King & Spalding LLP may represent Seller in such dispute even though the interests of Seller may be directly adverse to Buyer, the Group Companies, or any of their respective Affiliates and even though King & Spalding LLP may have represented the Group Companies in a matter substantially related to such dispute, or may be handling ongoing matters for Buyer or the Group Companies and (b) waives any conflict in connection therewith. Buyer (on its behalf and on behalf of its Affiliates) further understands and agrees that the parties have each undertaken commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the disclosure of confidential or attorney-client privileged information. Notwithstanding those efforts, Buyer (on its behalf and on behalf of its Affiliates) further agrees that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, as to all communications among any of King & Spalding LLP, the Company, or the Sellers (including any of their respective directors, officers or employees and the Sellers’ Representative) that relate to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the attorney-client privilege and the expectation of client confidence belongs to the Sellers and shall be controlled by the Sellers and shall not pass to or be claimed by Buyer, the Company, or any of their respective Affiliates. Buyer (on its behalf and on behalf of its Affiliates) further understands and agrees that the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement may result in the inadvertent disclosure of information that may be confidential or subject to a claim of privilege. Buyer (on its behalf and on behalf of its Affiliates) further understands and agrees that any disclosure of information that may be confidential or subject to a claim of privilege will not prejudice or otherwise constitute a waiver of any claim of privilege. Buyer (on its behalf and on behalf of its Affiliates) agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to return promptly any inadvertently disclosed information to the appropriate Person upon becoming aware of its existence. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a dispute arises between Buyer, the Group Companies, or any of their respective Affiliates and a third party other than a party to this Agreement after the Closing, the Group Companies may assert the attorney-client privilege to prevent disclosure of confidential communications by King & Spalding LLP to such third party; provided, however, that the Group Companies may not waive such privilege without the prior written consent of Seller. King & Spalding LLP shall be a third-party beneficiary for purposes of this Section 10.17.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties have caused this Agreement to be executed as of the date first above written.
