Seller shall deliver the Allocation to Buyer within 120 days after the Closing for Buyer’s review, comment and approval. Buyer and Seller shall work together to jointly agree to the final Allocation. If Buyer and Seller are unable to agree on any such Allocation, Buyer and Seller shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any such dispute(s). If the Parties are unable to agree on an Allocation within 30 days after the commencement of such good faith negotiations (or such longer period as Seller and Buyer may mutually agree in writing), the disputed portion(s) of such Allocation shall be arbitrated by the Evaluator (which may in turn select an appraiser if needed).

If there is an adjustment to the Purchase Price under Section 2.10, such adjustment will change only the amount of the foregoing Allocation to the Purchased Assets, and then (i) to the extent traceable to a particular Purchased Asset, only the purchase price of such asset, or (ii) to the extent not traceable to a particular Purchased Asset, such adjustment will be apportioned to intangible assets.

Buyer shall provide to Seller at Closing (or such other time thereafter as permitted by Applicable Law) a valid exemption certificate for every state in which Purchased Assets held for resale in the ordinary course of business are located to establish the applicability of the resale or other applicable exemption in such states. Any transfer Taxes, documentary stamps, sales Taxes, and other Taxes, fees, or charges (other than Canadian Transfer Taxes) imposed by any state, county, municipality, or other governmental entity in connection with the sale, assignment, transfer, and conveyance of any personal property owned by Seller shall be paid by Seller and Buyer on a 50/50 basis; provided however, Buyer shall pay any and all transfer fees and costs related to the transfer and retitling all Transferred Vehicles in its name.

(b) Canadian Transfer Taxes. Buyer shall be liable for and shall pay all Canadian Transfer Taxes properly payable upon and in connection with the sale, assignment and transfer of the Purchased Assets from the Canadian Seller to the Buyer. If applicable, Buyer and Canadian Seller will, and Seller shall cause Canadian Seller to, on or before Closing jointly execute an election, in the prescribed form and containing the prescribed information, to have subsection 167(1) of the Excise Tax Act (Canada) and Section 75 of the Act respecting the Quebec Sales Tax apply to the sale and purchase of the Purchased Assets in Canada so that no

Taxes are payable in respect of such sale and purchase under Part IX of the Excise Tax Act (Canada) and Part I of the Act respecting the Quebec Sales Tax. Buyer will file such elections with the applicable Governmental Authorities within the time prescribed by the Excise Tax Act (Canada) and the Act respecting the Quebec Sales Tax. Notwithstanding such elections, in the event it is determined by the Canada Revenue Agency or Revenue Quebec, as the case may be, that there is a liability of Buyer to pay, or of Canadian Seller to collect and remit, goods and services tax, harmonized sales tax and/or Quebec sales tax on all or part of the Purchased Assets in Canada, such Taxes, including any applicable interest and penalties, shall be forthwith paid by Buyer to the Canada Revenue Agency or Revenue Quebec, or to the Canadian Seller for remittance to the appropriate Governmental Authority, as the case may be.

2.10 Adjustment to Purchase Consideration.

(a) The Purchase Consideration has been established based on the assumption that the Inventory Value (as hereinafter defined) of the Business as of the Closing Date is $25,000,000 (“Inventory Target Amount”). The Purchase Consideration will be subject to adjustment in accordance with this Section 2.10. For purposes hereof, the term “Inventory Value” shall mean the value of Inventory determined in accordance with the procedures and methodologies set forth on Schedule 2.10.

(b) No later than three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing, Seller shall deliver to Buyer a certificate setting forth the Seller’s reasonable good faith estimate of the Inventory Value, a calculation of the amount by which the estimated Inventory Value is greater or less than the Inventory Target Amount (the “Estimated Purchase Price Adjustment”), and the calculation of the corresponding Closing Payment, together with such schedules and data with respect to the determination thereof as may be reasonably appropriate to support such amounts.

(c) Within five (5) Business Days of the Closing, Seller and Buyer shall jointly conduct a physical count of the Inventory at the locations and in accordance with the procedures set forth on Schedule 2.10. The value of the Inventory as of the Closing shall be based on such physical count and any changes in the Inventory between the date of such physical count and the Closing, based on the valuation procedures and methodologies set forth on Schedule 2.10. Each of Seller and Buyer will make its employees reasonably available to assist in the physical count and calculation of the value of the Inventory.

(d) Buyer shall, with the assistance of Seller, prepare and deliver to Seller a proforma Closing Date Inventory Statement showing the Inventory Value of the Business as of the Closing Date (“Closing Date Inventory Statement”) and a calculation of the amount by which the Closing Date Inventory Value is greater or less than the Estimated Inventory Value (such difference, the “Purchase Price Adjustment”) within sixty (60) days following the Closing. Seller shall provide to Buyer copies of any documents relating to the Business within its possession which Buyer may reasonably require for the purpose of preparing the Closing Date Inventory Statement.

(e) Buyer and Seller agree that to the extent the Purchase Price Adjustment proposed by Buyer is less than $50,000, there shall be no adjustment in favor of either Buyer or Seller.

(f) If the Closing Date Inventory Value is greater than the Estimated Inventory Value, Buyer shall pay the Purchase Price Adjustment to Seller. If the Closing Date Inventory Value is less than the Estimated Inventory Value, Seller shall pay the Purchase Price Adjustment to Buyer. The payment of the Purchase Price Adjustment shall be made within two (2) Business Days after a final determination of the amount thereof in accordance with Section 2.11, by bank wire transfer to an account designated in writing by the payee.

2.11 Objections.

(a) The Closing Date Inventory Statement and calculation of the Purchase Price Adjustment prepared by Buyer shall be valid unless Seller shall give written notice to Buyer of any disagreement(s) within thirty (30) days following Seller’s receipt of the proposed Closing Date Inventory Statement and calculation of the Purchase Price Adjustment, specifying in reasonable detail the nature and extent of such disagreement. Seller, and its representatives, shall have the right to review the Closing Date Inventory Statement and all work papers and review procedures of Buyer, and to the extent necessary, to examine the books and records of Buyer relating thereto. Buyer, and its representatives, shall cooperate with Seller, and its representatives, regarding providing such materials to Seller in an expeditious manner in order to allow Seller to complete its review and analysis of the proposed Closing Date Inventory Statement within the thirty (30) day time period set forth above.

(b) If Seller and Buyer are unable to resolve any disagreement with respect to the Closing Date Inventory Statement within ten (10) Business Days following receipt by Buyer of Seller’s written notice of disagreement with respect thereto referred to in Section 2.12 (a) above, the disagreement shall be submitted for resolution to the Evaluator (as defined below); provided, however, that all undisputed amounts relating to the Purchase Price Adjustment shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds within two (2) Business Days after that portion of the Purchase Price Adjustment is determined hereunder. “Evaluator” shall mean a nationally recognized firm of independent auditors mutually acceptable to Seller and Buyer, and chosen within five (5) Business Days after the expiration of the ten (10) Business Day period described in the immediately preceding sentence, provided, however, that if Seller and Buyer are unable to agree on an auditing firm for purposes of this Section (b) during the five (5) Business Day period, the Evaluator shall be one of the fifty largest independent auditing firms drawn by lot within ten (10) Business Days after the expiration of such five (5) Business Day period, after excluding those of the above described auditing firms involved with any of the Parties or the transactions contemplated hereby. The Evaluator shall act as an arbitrator to determine and resolve such disputes, based solely on presentations by Buyer and Seller and not by independent review. The Evaluator’s determination hereunder shall be made within thirty (30) days after the submission of the dispute, shall be in accordance with this Agreement, shall be set forth in a written statement delivered to Seller and Buyer and shall be final, binding and conclusive. Buyer and Seller shall each pay one-half of the fees and expenses of the Evaluator in resolving any disagreements as provided herein. Buyer and Seller shall each pay their own costs incurred in preparing and/or reviewing the Closing Date Inventory Statement, including the fees and expenses of their auditors; provided, that Buyer shall reimburse Seller for $20,000 in respect of the Inventory count, which reimbursement may be reflected in the amounts paid at Closing.

During the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the date which is twelve (12) months from the Closing (or if earlier, the date of the Hired Employee’s termination of employment with Buyer or an Affiliate of Buyer), Buyer shall, or shall cause an Affiliate of Buyer to, provide each Hired Employee with: (i) base salary or hourly wages and incentive bonus opportunities which are no less than the base salary or hourly wages and incentive bonus opportunity provided by Seller to such Hired Employee and as disclosed on Schedules 3.15(e)(i) and 3.14(b); (ii) other variable pay, service credit, vacation, incentive or bonus opportunities under plans, programs and arrangements that are substantially comparable in the aggregate to those provided by Seller and as disclosed on Schedule 3.15(e)(i); (iii) positions that have comparable responsibilities to such Hired Employee’s position with Seller and as disclosed on Schedule 3.15(e)(i); (iv) health and welfare benefits, including retirement benefits, that are substantially comparable to those provided to the Hired Employees by Seller and as disclosed on Schedules 3.15(e)(i) and 3.14(b), and (v) a location of employment that is less than 50 miles from such Employee’s location of employment

with Seller as disclosed on Schedule 3.15(e)(i) (collectively for each Employee, “Substantially Comparable Employment Terms”).

6.03 Severance for Hired Employees. Buyer covenants that, for a period of not less than twelve (12) months after the Closing Date, Buyer shall offer severance benefits for Hired Employees which are comparable to those under Seller’s severance guidelines and as disclosed on Schedule 6.03 to any Hired Employee whose employment is terminated by Buyer without cause within twelve (12) months after the Closing Date where such severance benefits will take into account the Hired Employees’ service with Seller prior to the Closing Date in determining the amount of severance owed. In addition, with respect to any Hired Employee whose employment is terminated by Buyer without cause prior to September 30, 2014, such terminated employee shall be entitled to, at Buyer’s expense, a pro rata portion of such employee’s incentive bonus for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2014 (to the extent not previously paid and with such pro rata portion being calculated from the Closing Date to the date of termination). Buyer shall indemnify Seller and hold Seller harmless from any severance or other costs related to Buyer’s termination of employment of any Hired Employee or employees who did not receive Substantially Comparable Employment Terms, and Buyer shall, within five (5) Business Days of Seller’s written request, reimburse Seller for such costs and expenses.

6.04 Pre-Closing Liabilities.

(a) Any and all Liabilities relating to or arising out of the employment, or cessation of employment, of any Employees on or prior to the Closing Date, including but not limited to wages earned through the Closing Date, benefits accrued under any Benefit Plan, severance and other remuneration, and any Liability relating to or arising out of any contract, or cessation of such contract, between Seller and any Employees prior to or on the Closing Date, shall be the sole responsibility of Seller.

(b) Effective as of the Closing, the Hired Employees shall cease active participation in the Benefit Plans. Seller shall remain liable for all eligible claims for benefits under the Benefit Plans that are incurred by the Employees prior to the Closing Date. For purposes of this Agreement, the following claims shall be deemed to be incurred as follows: (i) life, accidental death and dismemberment, short-term disability, and workers’ compensation insurance benefits, on the event giving rise to such benefits; (ii) medical, vision, dental, and prescription drug benefits, on the date the applicable services, materials or supplies were provided; and (iii) long-term disability benefits, on the eligibility date determined by the long-term disability insurance carrier for the plan in which the applicable Employee participates. Upon request, Seller shall provide Buyer with sufficient information regarding Seller’s insurance policies to enable Employees to make claims under such policies for benefits incurred prior to the Closing Date.

(c) Buyer and Seller intend that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement should not constitute a separation, termination or severance of employment of any Employee who accepts an employment offer by Buyer that is consistent with the requirements of Section 6.02, including for purposes of any Benefit Plan that provides for separation, termination or severance benefits, and that each such Employee will have continuous employment immediately before and immediately after the Closing.

6.05 COBRA. Seller shall offer continuation coverage pursuant to COBRA to all individuals who are “M&A qualified beneficiaries” (as such term is defined in Q&A 4 of Treas. Reg. section 54.4980B-9) as a result of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement and shall continue offering such coverage to such individuals for as long as such individuals are eligible to receive, and elect to receive, COBRA coverage. Buyer shall provide the benefits, if any, required after the Closing Date pursuant to Section 4980B of the Code or Part 6 of Title I of ERISA for any Hired Employee with respect to whom a qualifying event under Code Section 4980B occurs after the Closing Date.

6.06 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. No provision of this Agreement shall create any third party beneficiary rights in any Employee, any beneficiary or dependents thereof, or any collective bargaining representative thereof, with respect to the compensation, terms and conditions of employment and benefits that may be provided to any Hired Employee by Buyer or under any benefit plan which Buyer or its Affiliates may maintain.

ARTICLE VII

INDEMNIFICATION

9.01 Indemnification By Seller. (a) General. Subject to the limitation set forth in subsection (b) below, Seller shall indemnify Buyer and its respective successors and assigns (if any), and their respective officers, directors, employees, shareholders, agents, and Affiliates (collectively, the “Buyer Indemnified Parties”) for any claims, liability, obligations, deficiencies, loss, damage or expense (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ and accountants’ fees and expenses incurred in the investigation or defense of any of the same or in asserting any of their respective rights hereunder), whether or not resulting from third party claims (collectively, “Losses”), suffered by any Buyer Indemnified Party and resulting from, arising out of, or incurred with respect to:

(i) any misrepresentation in or breach of any of the representations or warranties made by Seller in this Agreement, or in any Schedule, document, certificate or affidavit delivered by Seller pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement;

(ii) the breach of any covenant or agreement made by the Seller in this Agreement; and

(iii) any of the Excluded Assets or the Retained Liabilities (including without limitation any Environmental Liability of Seller or liability for Seller Taxes).

(b) Limitations. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary:

(i) Seller shall not be liable to the Buyer Indemnified Parties for any Losses of the type identified in Section 9.01(a)(i) incurred by the Buyer Indemnified Parties unless the aggregate amount of those Losses exceeds in the aggregate $200,000; provided, however, that when the aggregate amount of all such Losses reaches a total of $200,000, Seller shall be liable for all Losses from the first dollar; and

(ii) The total liability of the Seller for any Losses of the type identified in Section 9.01(a)(i) incurred by the Buyer Indemnified Parties shall not exceed the aggregate amount of $6,000,000.

The limitations contained in this subsection (b) shall not apply to or limit Seller’s liability hereunder arising out of or relating to (i) any of the Excluded Assets or the Retained Liabilities, (ii) any Purchase Price Adjustments, (iii) the breach of any covenant or agreement by Seller, or (iv) representations or warranties made with willful intent to defraud or mislead.

9.02 Indemnification by Buyer. Buyer shall indemnify Seller and its respective successors and assigns (if any), and their respective officers, directors, employees, shareholders, agents, and Affiliates (collectively the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) for any Losses suffered by the Seller Indemnified Parties resulting from, arising out of, or incurred with respect to:

(a) any misrepresentation in or breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by the Buyer in this Agreement, or in any Schedule, document, certificate or affidavit delivered at Closing by the Buyer pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement;

(b) any of the Assumed Liabilities; and

9.03 Indemnification Procedures.

(a) Consequential Damages. An indemnifying party shall not be liable to an indemnified party for Losses in the nature of incidental, consequential, punitive or exemplary damages unless such Losses are included in a final judgment or arbitration award entered into against the indemnified party or as part of a settlement approved by the indemnifying party in connection with (i) a third party claim or (ii) a claim made against the indemnifying party in which it is determined that the indemnifying party acted with intent to defraud or mislead.

(b) Notice. An indemnified party shall assert any right to indemnification by furnishing to the indemnifying party a written notice and list of charges detailed by item and showing the nature of any breach of any representation, warranty, or covenant, the date of payment or assertion of a claim, a summary of settlement or litigation procedures, and the amount of the loss, cost, or expense. If the indemnified party’s right to indemnification is based upon a claim of a third party, the indemnified party shall give notice to the indemnifying party within 60 days after indemnified party receives notice of the claim; and the indemnifying party shall have the right to contest and settle any claim by a third party, but all expenses, costs, and payments of the contest and settlement shall be borne by the indemnifying party. The giving of

notice by an indemnified party of one or more claims shall not preclude it from giving subsequent notices of other claims, whether arising before or after the claims of which prior notice has been given.

(c) Arbitration. If any claim by indemnified party for indemnification against an indemnifying party is not settled within sixty (60) days after notice of the claim is given to the indemnifying party, the claim shall be submitted to arbitration in the manner provided in Section 9.04.

(d) Cut Off for Claims. All warranties and representations contained in this Agreement and the related indemnification obligations of the Seller and Buyer with respect to the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing Date for a period of eighteen (18) months from the Closing Date; provided however, that unless otherwise stated, the post Closing agreements and covenants contained in this Agreement, including without limitation the Parties’ indemnification obligations with respect to the Assumed Liabilities and the Retained Liabilities, shall survive and continue until all obligations set forth therein shall have been performed and satisfied. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all representations and warranties and related indemnity obligations of the Seller related to environmental issues shall survive for a period of seven (7) years from the Closing Date. No claims for indemnification may be made by an indemnified party hereunder unless (i) the matter giving rise to the claim for indemnification occurs before the expiration of the applicable survival period, and (ii) written notice of the matter giving rise to the claim for indemnification has been provided to the indemnifying party within thirty (30) days after the expiration of the applicable survival period.

(e) Remedy.

(i) Other than as set forth in Section 9.03(e)(ii), the indemnification provisions of this Article IX shall be the exclusive remedy available to any indemnified party against any indemnifying party for any damages arising directly or indirectly from any misrepresentation, breach of any warranty or nonperformance or breach of any covenant, obligation or agreement pursuant to this Agreement, other than any misrepresentation, breach of any warranty or nonperformance or breach of any covenant, obligation or agreement made with willful intent to defraud or mislead.

(ii) Nothing in this Article IX shall be construed to limit the equitable remedies of specific performance or injunctive relief of any party hereto in respect of any breach by any other party of any covenant or other agreement of such other party contained in or made pursuant to this Agreement.

(f) No Double Recovery. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent that there is any breach of any of the representations or warranties relating to Inventory that is compensated by the Purchase Price Adjustment, Buyer has no claims for breach of such representations or warranties.

9.04 Arbitration. Except as provided in Section 2.11, any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any alleged breach of this Agreement shall be settled by

arbitration in Houston, Texas in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association then in force, except that a written opinion of the arbitrators must be delivered to the parties notwithstanding any rules to the contrary. Three arbitrators shall be selected to settle the controversy or claim, with Buyer nominating one arbitrator, Seller nominating the second arbitrator, and the first and second arbitrators jointly nominating the third arbitrator. The arbitrators shall be persons experienced in negotiating and in making and consummating corporate acquisition agreements. A judgment upon the award entered by the majority of the arbitrators shall be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The successful or prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorney’s fees and other costs incurred in any arbitration or court proceeding. No provision of or the exercise of any rights under this Section 9.04 shall limit the right of any party to seek and obtain provisional or ancillary remedies (such as injunctive relief, attachment, or the appointment of a receiver) from any court having jurisdiction before, during, or after the pendency of an arbitration proceeding under this Section. The institution and maintenance of any such action or proceeding shall not constitute a waiver of the right of any party (including the party taking the action or instituting the proceeding) to submit a dispute, controversy, or claim to arbitration under this Section.

ARTICLE X

TERMINATION

10.01 Grounds for Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time before the Closing:

(a) by mutual written consent of Seller and Buyer;

(b) by either Seller or Buyer if:

(i) the Closing shall not have occurred on or before August 1, 2014 (the “Termination Date”); provided, that the Termination Date shall be extended to October 1, 2014 to the extent that the failure of the Closing to occur by August 1, 2014 resulted solely from either (A) a temporary Order that could reasonably be expected to be lifted by October 1, 2014 or (B) a failure to obtain any required consent of a Governmental Authority to the transactions contemplated hereby that could reasonably expected to be obtained by October 1, 2014; provided further, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 10.01(b) shall not be available to any party whose failure to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement has been the cause of, or resulted in, the failure of the Closing to occur on or before the Termination Date;

(ii) if a Governmental Authority shall have issued an Order (which Order the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to lift) that permanently restrains, enjoins, or otherwise prohibits consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, and such Order shall have become final and nonappealable;

(c) by Seller upon a material breach by Buyer of any of its representations, warranties or covenants under this Agreement, which breach would result in the failure of one or more of the conditions set forth in Section 8.01 hereof and such breach shall be incapable of being cured by the Termination Date or, if capable of being cured by the Termination Date has

not been cured within ten (10) Business Days after notice thereof has been provided to Buyer; provided, however, that there shall be no right to terminate if Seller is in material breach of its representations and warranties under this Agreement or has failed in any material respect to perform its obligations under this Agreement; and

(d) by Buyer upon a material breach by Seller of any of its representations, warranties under Sections 3.01 or 3.02 or any covenants under this Agreement, which breach would result in the failure of one or more of the conditions set forth in Section 8.02 hereof and such breach shall be incapable of being cured by the Termination Date or, if capable of being cured by the Termination Date has not been cured within ten (10) Business Days after notice thereof has been provided to Seller; provided, however, that there shall be no right to terminate if the Buyer is in material breach of its representations and warranties under this Agreement or has failed in any material respect to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

10.02 Effect of Termination. In the event of the termination hereof as expressly permitted under Section 10.01, this Agreement shall forthwith become void and have no effect (except for this Section 10.02) and there shall be no liability or responsibility in respect of this Agreement on the part of any of Buyer or Seller or their respective officers, directors, shareholders, employees, or Affiliates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such termination is due to the knowing material breach of any covenant or agreement contained herein by either party, then such party shall be liable to the other party hereto for all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) actually incurred by such other party in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 1.5 Planned Cutover of the Services.

Section 1.6 Level of Transition Services. Supplier will perform, or cause to be performed, the Transition Services in the manner and at a relative level of service (including type, quality, level of priority and amount) substantially similar to that provided to the Retained Business or the Purchased Business, as the case may be, immediately prior to the execution of the Purchase Agreement. The Parties acknowledge that Recipient shall be responsible for preparing its own books and records (including financial statements) relating to the Business during the Transition Services Period.

(b) Supplier, in its reasonable discretion, shall select a sufficient number of personnel with appropriate background and experience to provide the level of Transition Services required to be provided hereunder. In no event shall Supplier be required to hire additional individuals or to retain any specific individual in its employ to provide the Transition Services hereunder. Recipient understands that, prior to the date of this Agreement, Supplier may have contracted

with third-party vendors to provide services in connection with all or any portion of the Transition Services to be provided hereunder. Supplier reserves the right to continue in accordance with past practice in effect prior to the date of this Agreement in the ordinary course of business to subcontract with third-party vendors to provide the Transition Services; provided, however, that in the event that such subcontract is inconsistent with past practices or such subcontractor is not already engaged with respect to such Transition Service as of the date hereof, Supplier shall obtain the prior written consent of Recipient to hire such subcontractor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(c) Recipient acknowledges that Supplier may be providing similar services (and/or services that involve the same resources as those used to provide the Transition Services) to its internal organizations, Affiliates and third parties.

Recipient shall hold Supplier harmless for any matters in connection with Recipient’s books and records (including financial statements.

(e) In connection with Recipient’s preparation of Recipient’s books and records (including financial statements), Recipient shall have the right, during normal business hours and upon a mutually agreed upon time frame not to be less than twenty (20) Business Days’ notice, to validate the Transition Services. Recipient shall be entitled to validate such Transition Services in a manner that is commercially reasonable to the Transition Services provided at the end of the Transition Services Period. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) Recipient acknowledges and agrees that even though certain financial metrics will be provided to Recipient during the Transition Services Period, Recipient is responsible for its own books and records (including financial statements) and (ii) Recipient shall not be provided access to information relating to Seller’s Retained Business. Both Parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to leverage Supplier’s audit opinion in connection with any validation.

Purchaser shall provide written notice to Seller that it can no longer provide such Reverse Transition Services and Purchaser will reduce the applicable charges, if any, to reflect such reduction in the Reverse Transition Services.
