ASSET PURCHASE AGREEMENT

THIS ASSET PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made as of June 16, 2013 (the “Execution Date”), by and among (i) CarePoint Partners Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”), (ii) the direct and indirect Subsidiaries of the Company set forth on signature pages hereto under the heading “Subsidiaries” (individually, a “Subsidiary” and collectively, the “Subsidiaries” and together with Company the “Sellers”), (iii) the members of the Company, each of whose name is set forth on signature pages hereto under the heading “Owners” (individually, an “Owner” and collectively, the “Owners”), and (iv) BioScrip, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Buyer”). Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used herein are defined in Exhibit A attached hereto.

WHEREAS, the Sellers are engaged in the Business (as defined below); and

WHEREAS, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, Buyer desires to acquire and purchase from the Sellers, and the Sellers desire to sell, transfer and assign to Buyer, the Assets (as defined below) and assume the Assumed Liabilities (as defined below) for the consideration described herein; and

WHEREAS, the Owners own, directly or indirectly, all of the issued and outstanding equity securities of the Company and Buyer requires certain representations, warranties and covenants from the Owners with regard to the transactions contemplated herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual representations, warranties and covenants herein contained, and intending to be legally bound, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

Article 1
PURCHASE AND SALE

1A. Purchase and Sale of the Assets. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Closing, but effective as of the Effective Time, and upon payment of the Estimated Purchase Price by Buyer in accordance with Section 1G, the Sellers shall sell, convey, transfer, assign and deliver to Buyer or its designees and Buyer or its designees shall purchase, receive and accept from Sellers all right, title and interest in and to the Assets (other than the Excluded Assets).

1B. Excluded Assets. Notwithstanding anything contained in Section 1A or elsewhere in this Agreement, Buyer is not purchasing the Excluded Assets.

1C. Assumed Liabilities. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, in addition to payment of the Estimated Purchase Price by Buyer in accordance with Section 1G and as additional consideration for the Assets, Buyer shall assume all of the Assumed Liabilities.

1D. Excluded Liabilities. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Buyer shall not assume or be deemed to assume and shall not be liable for the Excluded Liabilities. The intent and objective of Buyer and the Sellers is that, except for the Assumed

Liabilities, Buyer does not assume and no transferee liability shall attach to Buyer pertaining to any of the Excluded Liabilities.

1E. Instrument of Transfer. The sale of the Assets and the assumption of the Assumed Liabilities as herein provided shall be effected at the Closing by the Assignment, Assumption and Xxxx of Sale, Assignment and Assumption Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E (the “Xxxx of Sale”).

1F. Closing. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the closing of the purchase and sale of the Assets and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall take place at the offices of Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxx LLP, 000 Xxxxx XxXxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000 at 10:00 a.m. local time on the latest of (i) the second Business Day following the satisfaction or waiver of the closing conditions set forth in Article 2 hereof (other than the conditions which by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing), (ii) sixty-three (63) days following the date on which the Sellers send the complete change of ownership applications listed on Schedule 1F via overnight courier to the applicable regulatory agency located in Florida and Kentucky, or (iii) such other date as is mutually acceptable to Buyer and the Sellers. The date on which the Closing shall occur is referred to herein as the “Closing Date,” and the Closing shall be deemed effective as of 12:01 a.m. (Chicago time) (the “Effective Time”) on the Closing Date.

1G. Closing Distributions.

(i) At the Closing, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, Buyer shall pay to, or as directed by, the Representative (for the benefit of the Sellers) an aggregate amount in cash equal to the Estimated Purchase Price (less the Escrow Deposit Amount and the Holdback Amount), by wire transfer of immediately available funds from Buyer to the account or accounts designated by the Representative to Buyer (which account or accounts, together with the amounts payable to each Seller, shall be designated by the Representative in writing at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date).

(ii) At the Closing, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, Buyer shall deliver, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, an aggregate amount equal to the Escrow Deposit Amount to the Escrow Agent for deposit into a separate escrow account (the “Escrow Account”) established pursuant to the terms of an escrow agreement, substantially in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto (the “Escrow Agreement”), among Buyer, the Representative and the Escrow Agent. The fees and expenses of the Escrow Agent shall be paid fifty percent (50%) by Buyer and fifty percent (50%) by the Representative.

(iii) At the Closing, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Company shall pay, or cause to be paid, to the intended beneficiaries thereof (as identified by the Company to Buyer at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date) (a) amounts due and owing pursuant to the Credit Facilities and (b) the liabilities of the Sellers set forth on Schedule 1G(iii).

1H. Purchase Price Adjustment.

(i) Within sixty (60) days following the Closing Date, the Buyer shall prepare and deliver to the Representative (a) an unaudited consolidated balance sheet of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the Adjustment Calculation Time (the “Closing Balance Sheet”) and (b) a statement (the “Closing Statement”) setting forth the Buyer’s calculation of Closing Net Working Capital. The Closing Balance Sheet shall be prepared in accordance with the Accounting Principles. The Closing Statement shall be derived from the Closing Balance Sheet, and shall be prepared in accordance with the applicable definitions and other requirements set forth in this Agreement and in a manner consistent with the example set forth in Exhibit H attached hereto. During the sixty (60) days immediately following the Representative’s receipt of the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Statement and any period of dispute thereafter with respect thereto, Buyer shall (x) assist the Representative in the review of the Closing Balance Sheet and Closing Statement and provide the Representative and its representatives with reasonable access during normal business hours to the books and records (including work papers), supporting data, employees and accountants of the Business to the extent relevant to and for the sole purpose of their review of the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Statement, and (y) reasonably cooperate with the Representative and its representatives in connection with such review, including providing on a timely basis all other information necessary in connection with the review of the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Statement as is requested by the Representative or its representatives. The Closing Balance Sheet, the Closing Statement and the resulting calculation of Closing Net Working Capital shall become final and binding upon the parties hereto sixty (60) days following the Representative’s receipt thereof unless the Representative gives written notice of its disagreement (a “Notice of Disagreement”) to Buyer prior to such date; provided that the Closing Balance Sheet, the Closing Statement and the resulting calculation of Closing Net Working Capital shall become final and binding upon the parties hereto upon the Representative’s delivery, prior to the expiration of the sixty (60) day period, of written notice to Buyer of its acceptance of the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Statement. Any Notice of Disagreement shall specify in reasonable detail the nature and amount of any disagreement and the Representative’s alternative calculation of the disputed amounts, in each case, together with reasonably detailed supporting documentation to the extent the Representative has been provided sufficient information to specify such matters.

(ii) If a timely Notice of Disagreement is received by Buyer, then the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Statement (as revised in accordance with this Section 1H(ii)), and the resulting calculation of Closing Net Working Capital, shall become final and binding upon the parties hereto on the earlier of (a) the date any and all matters specified in the Notice of Disagreement are finally resolved in writing by the Representative and Buyer and (b) the date any and all matters specified in the Notice of Disagreement not resolved by the Representative and Buyer are finally resolved in writing by the Arbiter (as defined below). The Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Statement shall be revised to the extent necessary to reflect any resolution by the Representative and Buyer and any final resolution made by the Arbiter in accordance with this Section 1H(ii). During the thirty (30) days immediately following the delivery

of a Notice of Disagreement or such longer period as the Representative and Buyer may agree in writing, the Representative and Buyer shall seek in good faith to resolve in writing any differences which they may have with respect to any matter specified in the Notice of Disagreement, and all such discussions related thereto shall (unless otherwise agreed by Buyer and the Representative) be governed by Rule 408 of the Federal Rules of Evidence and any applicable similar state rule. At the end of such thirty (30) day period or such longer period as the Representative and Buyer may agree in writing, the Representative and Buyer shall submit to McGladrey LLP (the “Arbiter”) for review and resolution of any and all matters (but only such matters) which remain in dispute and which were included in the Notice of Disagreement. Buyer and the Representative shall instruct the Arbiter to, and the Arbiter shall, make a final determination of the items included in the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Statement (to the extent such amounts are in dispute) in accordance with Accounting Principles and guidelines and procedures set forth in this Agreement and in a manner consistent with the example set forth in Exhibit H attached hereto. Buyer and the Representative will cooperate with the Arbiter during the term of its engagement. Buyer and the Representative shall instruct the Arbiter not to, and the Arbiter shall not, assign a value to any item in dispute greater than the greatest value for such item assigned by Buyer, on the one hand, or the Representative, on the other hand, or less than the smallest value for such item assigned by Buyer, on the one hand, or the Representative, on the other hand. Buyer and the Representative shall also instruct the Arbiter to, and the Arbiter shall, make its determination based solely on submissions by Buyer and the Representative that are in accordance with the guidelines and procedures set forth in this Agreement (i.e., not on the basis of an independent review). The submissions must be made within fifteen (15) days of engaging the Arbiter and copies of such submissions shall be provided to each party. The Closing Balance Sheet, the Closing Statement and the resulting calculation of Closing Net Working Capital shall become final and binding on the parties hereto on the date the Arbiter delivers its final resolution in writing to Buyer and the Representative (which final resolution shall be requested by the parties to be delivered not more than forty-five (45) days following submission of such disputed matters), and such resolution by the Arbiter shall not be subject to court review or otherwise appealable. The fees and expenses of the Arbiter pursuant to this Section 1H(ii) shall be borne by Buyer, on the one hand, and the Representative (on behalf of the Sellers), on the other hand, based upon the percentage which the aggregate portion of the contested amount not awarded to each party bears to the aggregate amount actually contested by such party.

(iii) If the Estimated Purchase Price is less than the Purchase Price (such shortfall, the “Shortfall Amount”), Buyer shall, within five (5) Business Days after the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Statement become final and binding on the parties hereto pursuant to this Section 1H, make payment of the Shortfall Amount by wire transfer in immediately available funds to, or as directed by, the Representative (for the benefit of the Sellers).

(iv) If the Estimated Purchase Price is greater than the Purchase Price (such excess, the “Excess Amount”), Buyer and the Representative shall deliver joint written instructions within five (5) Business Days after the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Statement become final and binding on the parties hereto pursuant to this Section

1H, to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to make payment to Buyer, by wire transfer in immediately available funds of the Excess Amount from the Escrow Amount in the Escrow Account.

(v) Buyer agrees that the working capital adjustment provided for in this Section 1H shall be the sole and exclusive remedies for the matters addressed or that could be addressed therein.

1I. Purchase Price Allocation.

(i) Within thirty (30) days following the final determination of the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 1H, the Representative and the Buyer shall mutually determine the allocation of the Purchase Price and the Assumed Liabilities among the Assets, which allocation shall be based on the methodology set forth on Schedule 1I.

(ii) Neither Buyer nor the Sellers, nor any of their respective Affiliates, shall take any position (whether in audits, Tax Returns or otherwise) which is inconsistent with the determinations made pursuant to this Section 1I unless required to do so by applicable Law.

1J. Holdback Payment. If and only if the Aggregate Actual Product Gross Profit for Year 1 equals or exceeds the amount set forth on Schedule 1J, Buyer shall pay an amount equal to Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000) (the “Holdback Amount”) to, or as directed by, the Representative (for the benefit of the Sellers). The Buyer shall pay the Holdback Amount to, or as directed by, the Representative (for the benefit of the Sellers) within ninety (90) days after the first anniversary of the Closing Date, or, if later, on the date that the applicable Holdback Calculation become final in accordance with Section 1K. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties hereto agree that no amount shall be payable under this Section 1J if Aggregate Actual Product Gross Profit does not equal or exceed the amount set forth on Schedule 1J during Year 1.

1K. Holdback Determination. Within forty-five (45) days after the last day of Year 1, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to the Representative a statement setting forth in reasonable detail the computation of the Aggregate Actual Product Gross Profit for Year 1 (the “Holdback Calculation”), including all necessary back-up calculations. The Representative shall have reasonable access to the employees of Buyer and its Subsidiaries and the books and records and working papers relating to the Business for the purpose of calculating or objecting to any Holdback Calculation. If the Representative has any objections to the Holdback Calculation, the Representative shall, within thirty (30) days of receipt of the Holdback Calculation or, if the Representative requests any books and records or working papers within thirty (30) days of its receipt of the Holdback Calculation, within thirty (30) days following the Representative’s receipt of the last of any requested materials, deliver to Buyer a statement setting forth any objections to the Holdback Calculation (the “Holdback Objections Statement”). The Holdback Objections Statement shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for the items being disputed in good faith. The Sellers hereby waive the right to assert any objection, other than allegations of fraud, with respect to any Holdback Calculation that is not asserted in the Holdback Objections Statement delivered to Buyer. If the Holdback Objections Statement is not delivered to Buyer in accordance with this Section 1K, the Holdback Calculation shall be final and binding upon, and

non-appealable by, the parties hereto. If the Representative delivers the Holdback Objections Statement to Buyer in accordance with this Section 1K, the Representative and Buyer shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any such objections, but if they do not reach a final resolution within fifteen (15) days after delivery of the Holdback Objections Statement, the Representative or Buyer may at any time thereafter, with written notice to the other party, submit such dispute to the Arbiter and such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with the dispute resolution procedures set forth in Section 1H. The Representative and Buyer shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Arbiter to resolve all disagreements as promptly as practicable. The Holdback Calculation reflecting the resolution of the Dispute by the Arbiter shall be final and binding upon, and non-appealable by, the parties hereto and may be entered as a final judgment in any court of proper jurisdiction. The costs and expenses of the Arbiter shall be borne fifty percent (50%) by Buyer, on the one hand, and fifty percent (50%) by the Representative (on behalf of the Sellers), on the other hand.

1L. Operation of the Business During Year 1. During Year 1, Buyer shall and shall cause its designees, Subsidiaries and Affiliates to (a) maintain separate books and records for the Business in a manner which permits determination of the Aggregate Actual Product Gross Profit for the Business; (b) deliver to the Company, within thirty (30) days after the end of each fiscal quarter, a calculation of Aggregate Actual Product Gross Profit for such fiscal quarter; (c) make a good faith, non-discriminatory effort to conduct sales and service activities in the Acquired Branch business in the ordinary course of Buyer’s business with respect to all home infusion-branch operations of Buyer; (d) not take or fail to take, any action with the purpose of avoiding the obligation to make the Holdback Payment; and (e) not sell, exchange, assign, or otherwise transfer to any Person substantially all of the assets used in any Non-Overlapping Branch or Overlapping Acquired Branch.

1M. Payments to the Representative on behalf of the Sellers. Any amounts which, pursuant to this Agreement, are to be paid, distributed or released to, or as directed by, the Representative (for the benefit of the Sellers) shall (subject to the Representative’s rights pursuant to Section 11O (including to set aside and retain additional funds paid to or received by it, or to direct payment of additional funds to be paid to the Sellers pursuant to this Agreement at Closing or thereafter) to satisfy any Representative Expenses or potential Representative Expenses) be paid, or directed to be paid, by the Representative to or on behalf of the Sellers as determined by the Representative.

3A. Access. During the period from the date of this Agreement to the earlier of the Closing and the date that this Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, the Sellers shall grant to Buyer and its authorized representatives reasonable access, during normal business hours and upon reasonable notice, to the personnel, properties, books and records of the Company and its Subsidiaries that are in the possession or under the control of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for purposes relating to the transition of the Assets to Buyer; provided that (i) such access does not unreasonably interfere with the normal operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries, (ii) such access shall occur in such a manner as the Company reasonably determines to be appropriate to protect the confidentiality of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (iii) all requests for access shall be directed to such Person as the Company may designate in writing from time to time, who shall initially be Xxxx Xxxxx (the “Designated Contact”), and (iv) nothing herein shall require the Sellers to provide access to, or to disclose any information to, Buyer if such access or disclosure (x) would cause significant competitive harm to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries if the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are not consummated or (y) would be in violation of applicable Legal Requirements of any Governmental Entity (including the HSR Act and other antitrust laws) or the provisions of any agreement to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party. At the request of Buyer (with respect to any particular agreement), the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all necessary waivers of confidentiality provisions in its agreements with third parties so that Buyer may review such agreements prior to the Closing (to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements). Other than the Designated Contact or as expressly provided in this Agreement, Buyer is not authorized to and shall not (and shall cause its employees, agents, representatives and Affiliates not to) contact any officer, director, employee, manager, customer, supplier, distributor, lessee, lessor, lender or other material business relation of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the Closing without the prior written consent of the Designated Contact. Buyer shall, and shall cause its representatives to, abide by the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement with respect to such access and any information furnished to it or its representatives pursuant to this Section 3A. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Sellers shall not be required to provide access to or disclose information if such access or such disclosure would (1) jeopardize the attorney-client, work product or similar privilege of the Person in possession

or control of such information or (2) contravene any confidentiality agreement or obligation of the Person in possession or control of such information.

10F. Procedures Relating to Indemnification.

(i) In order for a Person that has rights of indemnification under this Agreement (each, an “Indemnified Party”) to be entitled to any indemnification provided for under this Agreement in respect of a claim or demand made by any Person against the Indemnified Party (a “Third Party Claim”), such Indemnified Party must notify the indemnifying party (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing, and in reasonable detail, of the Third Party Claim as promptly as reasonably possible after receipt by such Indemnified Party of notice of the Third Party Claim; provided that failure to give such notification on a timely basis shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except to the extent the Indemnifying Party shall have been actually prejudiced as a result of such failure; provided further that, for purposes of making claims against the Escrow Amount, written notice to the Representative shall be deemed written notice to the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Section 10F(i). Thereafter, the Indemnified Party shall deliver to the Indemnifying Party, within five (5) Business Days after the Indemnified Party’s receipt thereof, copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnified Party relating to the Third Party Claim.

(ii) If a Third Party Claim is made against an Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense thereof and, if it elects, to assume the defense thereof with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party and reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party so long as (a) the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party in writing within thirty (30) days after the Indemnified Party has given notice of the Third Party Claim of the Indemnifying Party’s election to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim, (b) the Third Party Claim does not predominately seek an injunction or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party, (c) settlement of, or an adverse judgment with respect to, the Third Party Claim (1) is not, in the good faith, reasonable judgment of the Indemnified Party, likely to establish a precedential custom or practice adverse to the continuing business interests of the Indemnified Party or (2) in the good faith, reasonable judgment of the Indemnified Party, would not reasonably be expected to materially injure the Indemnified Party’s reputation and future business prospects, and (d) upon a petition by the Indemnified Party, a court of

competent jurisdiction has not determined that the Indemnifying Party failed to diligently prosecute or defend such Third Party Claim; provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to assume the defense of any Third Party Claim relating to any Excluded Liability.

(iii) If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of the Third Party Claim in accordance with this Section 10F, the Indemnified Party may retain separate co-counsel at its sole cost and expense (which costs and expenses shall not be indemnifiable Losses hereunder) and participate in the defense of the Third Party Claim subject to the Indemnifying Party’s right to control the defense thereof. In the event that the Indemnifying Party does not assume and control the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall assume and control the defense of such Third Party Claim and shall reasonably contest such Third Party Claim in good faith.

(iv) The Indemnifying Party will not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party unless such settlement provides the Indemnified Party with a full and unconditional release from such Third Party Claim. No Indemnifying Party shall admit or permit to be admitted any fault, responsibility or liability on behalf of an Indemnified Party without such Indemnified Party’s consent, which consent may be granted or withheld at Indemnified Party’s sole discretion.

(v) If the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend any Third Party Claim, all the parties hereto shall cooperate in the defense or prosecution of such Third Party Claim. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the Indemnifying Party’s request) the provision to the Indemnifying Party of records and information which are reasonably relevant to such Third Party Claim, and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder.

(vi) In the event that the Indemnifying Party has not elected to (or is not able to by operation of Section 10F(ii)) assume control of the defense, the Indemnified Party may defend against and shall reasonably contest such Third Party Claim (and the Indemnified Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to consult with, or obtain consent from, the Indemnifying Party in connection therewith), but may not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (not to be unreasonably withheld). The Indemnifying Party will remain responsible for any Losses the Indemnified Party may suffer resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by the Third Party Claim, in each case, subject to the limitations provided in this Agreement.

10G. Certain Additional Matters.

(i) Any indemnification pursuant to this Article 10 shall be effected (a) in the case of an indemnification claim resolved in favor of the Seller Indemnified Parties, by wire transfer of immediately available funds from Buyer to an account(s) designated in

writing by the Representative within thirty (30) days after the determination thereof and (b) in the case of an indemnification claim resolved in favor of any Buyer Indemnified Party, by wire transfer of immediately available funds from the Sellers to an account designated in writing by Buyer within thirty (30) days after the determination thereof; provided that any indemnification owed by the Sellers to the Buyer Indemnified Parties under this Article 10 (other than pursuant to Section 10A(ii)(b)) shall first be satisfied out of the Escrow Amount to the extent then available; provided, however, that the Escrow Amount shall not be available to satisfy any claims related to breach of any covenant requiring performance after the Closing, including the covenants contained in Article 8. Buyer and the Representative shall promptly provide joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent directing the Escrow Agent to make payment pursuant to the preceding sentence if the Escrow Agent has not timely done so pursuant to the Escrow Agreement. Thereafter, the Buyer Indemnified Parties shall have direct recourse, on a joint and several basis, to the Sellers, subject to the terms and limitations contained in this Article 10. If the net assets of the Sellers readily available to satisfy any such indemnification claim are insufficient to satisfy the claim in full or the Sellers do not pay such indemnification claim within thirty (30) days after the final determination thereof, then after a final determination that any Losses are payable to any Buyer Indemnified Party hereunder, the Buyer Indemnified Parties shall have direct recourse to the Owners to the extent of such shortfall on a separate basis (and for the avoidance of doubt, not on a joint or several basis) for such Owner’s pro rata portion (based on the percentage of amounts received by each Owner as reflected on Exhibit I), subject to the terms and limitations contained in Article 10. Within five (5) Business Days after the one (1) year anniversary of the Closing Date, the Escrow Agent shall, pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement, release to, or as directed by, the Representative an amount equal to the excess of (i) all remaining Escrow Amounts in the Escrow Account, minus (ii) the aggregate amount (the “Claim Amount”) for which claims for indemnification were made against the Escrow Amount prior to the one (1) year anniversary of the Closing Date and not yet resolved. Furthermore, with respect to determinations made after the first anniversary of the Closing Date, within five (5) Business Days after it is determined that all or any portion of the Claim Amount is not owed to Buyer hereunder, the Escrow Agent shall, pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement, release to, or as directed by, the Representative such portion of the Claim Amount. Buyer and the Representative shall promptly provide joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent directing the Escrow Agent to take the foregoing actions if the Escrow Agent has not timely done so pursuant to the Escrow Agreement.

(ii) The amount of any and all Losses under this Article 10 shall be determined net of any amounts actually recovered by an Indemnified Party or any of such Indemnified Party’s Affiliates under or pursuant to any insurance policy, title insurance policy, indemnity, reimbursement arrangement or contract, pursuant to which or under which such Indemnified Party or such Indemnified Party’s Affiliates is a party or has rights so long as the insurer has no recourse against the Indemnified Party for amounts so paid. Any Buyer Indemnified Party that may be entitled to indemnification hereunder shall seek full recovery under any applicable insurance policy, title insurance policy, indemnity, reimbursement arrangement or contract, in each case, included in the Assets with any third party that may cover a Loss to the same extent as they would if such Loss

were not subject to indemnification or other recovery hereunder. In the event that an insurance or other recovery is made by any Indemnified Party with respect to any Loss for which any such Indemnified Party has been indemnified or otherwise recovered hereunder, then a refund equal to the aggregate net amount of the recovery shall be made promptly to the Person providing the indemnity or other recovery and if such recovery is made from the Escrow Account, to the Representative. in either such case so long as the insurer has no recourse against the Indemnified Party for amounts so paid. With respect to any matter involving any Excluded Assets or Excluded Liabilities and for which Buyer has no right or good faith basis for asserting a claim for indemnification against the Sellers and Owners under Section 10A, then when and as requested by the Representative (on behalf of the Sellers) and at the Sellers’ sole cost and expense with respect to such matter, Buyer shall cooperate with Sellers in making and pursuing a claim on behalf of Sellers’ against any insurance policy included in the Assets.

(iii) In no event shall any Indemnified Party be entitled to recover or make a claim for any amounts in respect of, and in no event shall “Losses” be deemed to include, (a)(1) any consequential, punitive, incidental, indirect, special or exemplary losses, liabilities, damages, or expenses, or (2) any losses, liabilities damages or expenses for lost profits or diminution in value or any “multiple of profits,” “multiple of cash flow” or similar valuation methodology used in calculating the amount of Losses, or (b) in the case of Buyer, any loss, liability, damage or expense to the extent such item was included in the calculation of the Purchase Price or Closing Net Working Capital.

(iv) With respect to (a) any matter involving any Excluded Assets or Excluded Liabilities and for which Buyer has no right or good faith basis for asserting a claim for indemnification against the Sellers and Owners under Section 10A or (b) any matter for which Buyer has a right or good faith basis for asserting a claim for indemnification (whether or not asserted) against the Sellers and Owners under Section 10A, then, when and as requested by the Representative (on behalf of the Sellers) and at the Sellers’ sole cost and expense with respect to such matter, Buyer shall either enforce rights to indemnification with respect to such matter under any Assumed Contract relating to any of the Seller’s prior acquisitions or, if effective, reassign to the Sellers such rights under any such Assumed Contract in order for the Sellers to enforce such rights. In the event that the Representative makes a request pursuant to clause (b) above, then (1) the Representative (on behalf of the Sellers) shall pay to Buyer the amount of any Losses to which Buyer is entitled under this Agreement, notwithstanding Section 10C(iii) and Section 10C(iv), then (2) the Representative (on behalf of the Sellers) shall be reimbursed for all losses, costs and expenses (including legal fees), then (3) Buyer shall be entitled to any remaining amounts.

(v) Any indemnity payment under this Agreement shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes.

Each Seller and each Owner understands that such Seller or Owner may be in possession of non-public information about Buyer and agrees that such Seller or Owner will not knowingly purchase or sell shares of common stock of Buyer or any Affiliate of Buyer during the period beginning on the Execution Date and ending on the Closing Date or any other period of time in which information disclosed in connection with the transactions contemplated herein may be reasonably deemed to constitute material non-public

information, which such period shall be deemed to extend no longer than one year after the Closing. Each Seller and Owner acknowledges that, as a result of such Seller’s or Owner’s association with the Business, such Seller and Owner has acquired confidential and proprietary information of special value to the Business including, without limitation, any pricing, purchasing information, lists of or information regarding Patients, lists of or information regarding Referral Sources of the Company, formularies, employee names, wages or benefits, trade secrets, policies or procedures, outcomes data, financial data, business strategies, strategic plans, marketing materials, and contract terms, each with respect to the Business. Following the Closing, each Seller and Owner will treat and hold as confidential and proprietary all of the Business’ confidential and proprietary information and refrain from disclosing any of the Business’ confidential and proprietary information except (a) in connection with this Agreement, (b) to the extent required by Law or as required by Law to be included, in any report, statement, testimony or other submission to any Governmental Entity having jurisdiction over a Seller, an Owner or its Affiliates, as applicable, (c) as may be reasonably necessary or advisable in connection with the preparation and filing of any Tax Returns, accounting records, financial reporting obligations or any audit, (d) to its legal, tax or other advisors and representatives or (e) in response to any summons, subpoena or other legal process or formal or informal investigative demand issued to a Seller, an Owner, or any of their Affiliates, as applicable, in the course of any litigation, investigation or administrative proceeding. In the event that any Seller or Owner is required (by oral question or request for information or documents in any legal proceeding, interrogatory, subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar process) to disclose any of Buyer’s confidential information, such Seller or Owner shall notify Buyer of the requirement so that Buyer may seek an appropriate protective order or waive compliance with the provisions of this Section 11B(ii). If, in the absence of a protective order or the receipt of a waiver hereunder, any Seller or Owner is, on the advice of counsel, compelled to disclose any of Buyer’s confidential information to any tribunal or else stand liable for contempt, such Seller or Owner may disclose such confidential information to the tribunal; provided, however, that such Seller or Owner shall use his, her or its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, at the reasonable request of Buyer and at Buyer’s expense, an order or other assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such portion of such confidential information required to be disclosed as Buyer shall designate. Buyer’s confidential information shall not include any information which (y) is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by a Seller or an Owner in breach of this Section 11B(ii), or (z) becomes available to a Seller or an Owner on a non confidential basis from a source other than Buyer.

11C. Cooperation. From and after the Closing, Buyer, on the one hand, and each of the Sellers and the Owners, on the other hand, shall execute and deliver such further assignments, endorsements and instruments of conveyance and transfer as may reasonably be necessary to further effectuate the transactions contemplated hereby. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign any Contract or any claim or right or any benefit arising thereunder or resulting therefrom if and for so long as such assignment, without the consent of a third party thereto, would constitute a breach or other contravention of such Contract or in any way adversely affect the rights of the Buyer or the Sellers thereunder. If such consent is not obtained, or if an attempted assignment

thereof would be ineffective or would adversely affect the rights of any Seller thereunder so that the Buyers would not in fact receive all such rights, Buyer and each Seller will cooperate in a mutually agreeable arrangement under which Buyer would obtain the benefits and perform and discharge the obligations thereunder in accordance with this Agreement, or under which such Seller would enforce for the benefit of Buyer at Buyer’s sole cost and expense, with Buyer being responsible for the performance and discharge of such Seller’s obligations, any and all rights of the Sellers against a third party.

11D. Insurance. The Sellers shall maintain in full force and effect their policies of insurance until the Closing Date. The Company shall purchase (it being understood and agreed that 50% of all amounts paid by the Company, its Subsidiaries or Affiliates in connection with this Section 11D on or prior to the Closing shall increase the Purchase Price) on or before the Closing Date four year extended reporting endorsements (“tails”) for any and all policies of insurance maintained on a “claims made” basis and covering any of the Sellers as of the date hereof with limits consistent with amounts in effect as of the date hereof and will add Buyer as an additional insured to said policies. The Company will provide a certificate of insurance evidencing such tail policy to Buyer at the Closing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company is under no obligation to maintain its policy(ies) of director and officer liability insurance. If the Company elects to purchase a tail for any policy(ies) of director and officer liability insurance coverage, the Company shall purchase such coverage at its sole cost and expense.

11E. Benefit Matters.

(i) Effective as of the Closing, Buyer shall (and shall cause to be taken all actions as are necessary or appropriate to) assume the sponsorship of, the assets maintained pursuant to, and all liabilities and obligations arising under or in connection with each Assumed Seller Plan. Buyer shall be solely responsible for complying with the requirements of Part 6 of Subtitle B of Title I of ERISA and Section 4980B of the Code for any individual who is an “M&A qualified beneficiary” as defined in Q&A-4 of Treas. Reg. §54.4980B-9.

(ii) Prior to the Closing, (A) the board of managers of the Company will have caused to be passed a resolution stating that the Company 401(k) Plan shall be terminated effective at least one (1) day prior to the Closing but contingent on the occurrence of the Closing, and (B) the Company shall not take any actions that would cause the Company 401(k) Plan to lose its tax-qualified status. Within thirty (30) days of Closing, Buyer shall permit all employees who were participants in or eligible to participate in the Company 401(k) Plan as of the Closing Date to participate in a 401(k) plan maintained by Buyer or its Affiliates (the “Buyer 401(k) Plan”). Prior to the Closing, the board of directors of Buyer will have caused to be passed a resolution (a copy of which shall have been provided to Sellers) stating that Buyer or designee of Buyer shall become the named fiduciary (as determined under ERISA) of the Company 401(k) Plan following the Closing, which resolution may also provide that Buyer may delegate such fiduciary status to a designee to the extent permitted by applicable Laws. Buyer shall further cause the Buyer 401(k) Plan to accept rollovers of distributions (or direct rollovers) and outstanding participant loans from the Company 401(k) Plan. Buyer shall administer, at

Buyer’s sole cost and expense, the termination of the Company 401(k) Plan in compliance with its terms and the requirements of all applicable Laws, and in such a manner as to permit the distribution of loan promissory notes from the Company 401(k) Plan and rollover of such promissory notes to the Buyer 401(k) Plan without causing any default on a Company 401(k) Plan loan.

(iii) Following the Closing, Buyer shall cause to be granted to all employees of Buyer or any of its Affiliates who were employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Closing credit for all purposes (including eligibility, vesting, and accrual or determination of amount of benefits) for their service with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the Closing under any benefit or compensation plan, program, agreement, contract or arrangement maintained by Buyer or any of its Affiliates. Further, following the Closing, Buyer shall credit all employees of Buyer or any of its Affiliates who were employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Closing with the amount of their extended illness bank benefits in the amount set forth on Schedule 11E(iii) and shall permit all such employees to utilize such benefits in accordance with the terms of the policy of the Company and its Subsidiaries that was in effect with respect to such benefits prior to the Closing Date.

11F. Employees.

(i) Buyer shall make an offer of employment to (i) each Employee (including Employees on temporary leave of absence, including family medical leave, military leave, short- or long-term , workers compensation, or sick leave) (notwithstanding the terms of any other agreement between Buyer or any of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and such Employee, on the other hand) and (ii) each Person listed on Schedule 11F, in each case at least ten (10) days prior to the Closing Date, or within five (5) Business Days of the applicable date of hire with respect to any Employee hired less than ten (10) days prior to the Closing Date, which offers shall include base salary not less than Employee’s base salary as of the Execution Date, subject to exceptions reasonably determined by Buyer in consultation with the Sellers’ CEO, which shall provide that employment with Buyer or one of its Affiliates will commence effective as of the Closing; provided, however, that any offer of employment shall be contingent upon the Closing actually occurring. Nothing herein shall obligate Buyer to employ any Employees for any specific time period. Nothing herein shall be construed to grant any Employee any rights as a third party beneficiary. If any Employee fails to meet Buyer’s hiring standards, e.g., as a result of drug screening or background check, or is a former employee of Buyer ineligible for re-hiring, (a) Buyer will nevertheless offer employment to such individuals for such minimum period as is necessary to permit eligibility for COBRA benefits under Buyer’s health benefit plans (other than any Assumed Seller Plan); (b) such Employees will not be granted access to any Buyer systems; and (c) such Employees will not be eligible for any severance from Buyer.

(ii) On or prior to the Closing Date, the Company and each applicable Owner shall terminate any existing employment agreement between them and agree that any such employment agreements shall be of no further force or effect after the Closing Date.

Furthermore, the Company and each such Owner acknowledge and agree that all rights and obligations under the specified employment agreements shall cease as of the Closing Date, including any rights to compensation, severance and other payments. On or prior to the Closing Date, the Company and each of Xxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxx Xxxxx and Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx shall terminate any existing restrictive covenant agreement between them and agree that such restrictive covenant agreements shall be of no further force or effect after the Closing Date.

(iii) The Sellers shall cause their payroll agent(s) to process payroll for all Employees for dates of service through the day immediately prior to the Closing Date and shall pay out to all Employees the value of any accrued paid time off, but for the avoidance of doubt, not including any extended illness bank accruals described in Section 11E(iii).

11G. SEC Financial Statements and Auditor’s Consents.

(i) The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with Buyer so that Buyer can obtain or prepare, within the time periods required by applicable securities laws and regulations and NASDAQ Global Market requirements, and in no event later than the Closing Date, subject to Section 11G(ii), any audited and unaudited financial statements relating to the Company and its Subsidiaries and any pro forma or other financial information (other than audited and unaudited financial statements) relating to the Company and its Subsidiaries that the Buyer is required to file with the SEC under applicable securities laws and regulations, with such financial statements and financial information to be prepared in accordance with such laws, regulations and requirements (including unqualified audit reports) (such information, the “Required SEC Financial Statements”). Buyer shall notify the Company in writing of (i) Buyer's determination of required SEC Financial Statements under the significance tests of Rule 3-05 of Regulation S-X, and (ii) Buyer's non-exclusive summary of the adjustments (to the extent such adjustments may require the Company's cooperation) to the Schedule 5D Financial Statements that Buyer or Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx has determined necessary for the SEC Financial Statements to be prepared in accordance with Regulation S-X. In connection with the foregoing, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts:

(a) provide to Buyer the Company’s audited consolidated (A) balance sheets for the Company and its Subsidiaries as of each of December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, and (B) related statements of earnings, cash flows and stockholders’ equity and, if applicable, statements of comprehensive income, of the Company and its Subsidiaries for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, accompanied by the report thereon by Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx, in each case to the extent the foregoing would constitute Required SEC Financial Statements (any such balance sheets, statements of earnings, changes in net parent investment, cash flows, stockholders’ equity, comprehensive income, reports and opinions, collectively, the “Audited Financial Statements”);

(b) to request that Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx deliver an unqualified opinion with respect to the Audited Financial Statements and providing to Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx customary consent letters from the Company as are requested by Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx in connection with delivering such opinion;

(d) to deliver unaudited consolidated balance sheets of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of March 31, 2013, and the related unaudited consolidated statements of operations and cash flows and, if applicable, statements of comprehensive income of the Company and its Subsidiaries for the three months ended March 31, 2013 (or for any subsequent interim period completed after the date of this Agreement within sixty (60) days following the end of any such interim period), which shall be prepared in accordance with Regulation S-X, in each case to the extent the foregoing would constitute Required SEC Financial Statements (the “Unaudited Financial Statements” and, together with the Audited Financial Statements, the “SEC Financial Statements”); and

(e) to deliver any other financial and other pertinent information regarding the Business that would constitute Required SEC Financial Statements; provided that the foregoing does not include any information with respect to any Owner.

(ii) For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 11G(i), failure to deliver or provide the information set forth in this Section 11G prior to the Closing Date shall not be deemed to be a breach of the obligations of the Company and the Sellers hereunder and therefore, compliance with this Section 11G shall not constitute a condition to Closing pursuant to Section 2B(i). The Sellers and the Company hereby agree to consent to the inclusion of such SEC Financial Statements and information in any filings by Buyer with any securities regulatory authority or exchange. To the extent required following the Closing Date, the Sellers and the Company further hereby agree to use commercially reasonable efforts after the Closing Date (a) to request Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx to provide to Buyer (or Buyer’s successor) any such auditor’s consent to the inclusion of any such SEC Financial Statements or the information contained therein, in any filings by or on behalf of Buyer (or Buyer’s successor) with any applicable securities regulatory authority or securities exchange and (b) to request that Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx cooperate with Buyer and its auditors in the preparation of the pro forma financial statements required under Regulation S-X to reflect, among other things, the elimination of the Excluded Assets and the Excluded Liabilities.

Buyer is solely responsible for and shall promptly reimburse the Company upon written request including a copy of related Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx invoice for any costs and expenses of the Company in complying with this Section 11G (it being understood and agreed that any amounts not reimbursed prior to the Closing Date shall increase the Purchase Price).

11H. Certain Tax Matters.

(i) All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other such Taxes and all conveyance fees, recording charges and other fees and charges (including any penalties and interest) incurred by the Company or its Subsidiaries directly or indirectly in connection with consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be paid by fifty percent (50%) by the Sellers, on the one hand, and fifty percent (50%) by the Buyer, on the other hand, when due, regardless of whether such Taxes are technically owed by the Sellers, Buyer, the Company or any of the Subsidiaries and Buyer will file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all such Taxes, fees and charges, and if required by applicable Law, the Sellers will join in the execution of any such Tax Returns and other documentation. The Sellers shall reimburse Buyer for fifty percent (50%) of the costs of preparation of any such Tax Returns and similar documentation.

(ii) At the Closing, each Seller shall deliver to the Buyer a written statement, in the form prescribed by Section 1.1445-2(b)(2) of the Treasury Regulations, certifying under penalties of perjury that such Seller is not a “foreign person” within the meaning of Section 1445 of the Code.

(ii) After the Closing Date and in the event that the Representative has a reasonable business purpose related to the Excluded Assets, the Excluded Liabilities, its obligations under this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby to have access to the materials referred to in this Section 11K, Buyer shall permit the Representative and its representatives, advisors, attorneys and accountants to have reasonable access to, and if reasonable, to inspect and copy, at the Representative’s expense, that portion of the materials referred to in this Section 11K that the Representative needs access to, consistent with such reasonable business purpose, and to meet with officers and employees of Buyer on a mutually convenient basis in order to obtain explanations with respect to such materials and to obtain additional information

and to call such officers and employees as witnesses (the cost of which shall be borne by the Representative (on behalf of the Sellers)). The parties hereto agree to cooperate so that such access does not unreasonably disrupt the normal operations of Buyer.

11L. Consents. Buyer acknowledges that certain consents to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement may be required from parties to Contracts (including the Company Material Contracts) being assigned hereunder. Nevertheless, Buyer acknowledges that such consents may not be obtained, despite the Sellers’ good faith efforts. Buyer agrees that no Seller shall have any liability whatsoever to Buyer (and Buyer shall not be entitled to assert any claims) arising out of or relating to the failure to obtain any consents that may have been or may be required under any Contract in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or because of the termination of or loss of right under any such Contract as a result thereof. Buyer further agrees that no representation, warranty or covenant of the Sellers contained herein shall be breached or deemed breached solely as a result of the failure to obtain any consent under a Contract.

For the avoidance of doubt, no party hereto may offset or withhold any receivables received by such party that are required to be paid to another party hereto pursuant to this Section 11M, it being acknowledged that the obligation to pay over receivables is absolute and unconditional.

(ii) Following the Closing, Buyer shall (and shall cause its Affiliates and Subsidiaries to), permit the Sellers and its representatives, advisors, attorneys and accountants to have access to and make copies of the following in Buyer’s, its Affiliates’ or its Subsidiaries’ possession or under their control: (a) all books and records, files and documents and (b) all data contained on Information Systems (including, without limitation, CPR+ and Great Plains) as reasonably requested by the Sellers in connection with any xxxx, rebill, investigation, claim, evaluation, preparation, maintenance, defense or other action with respect to the Governmental Receivables.

(iii) In the event and for so long as any Seller actively is evaluating, investigating, responding to, contesting or defending against any claim by any Governmental Entity with respect to the Governmental Receivables, Buyer will cooperate with such Seller and its representatives, advisors, attorneys and accountants and make available its and its Affiliates’ and Subsidiaries’ personnel as shall be reasonably necessary or appropriate in connection with such response, contest or defense, and Sellers’ shall reimburse Buyer for all out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred and related thereto, and, as to employees of Buyer, reimbursement shall be based on a per

The parties hereto have agreed that it is desirable to designate the Representative to act on behalf of the Sellers and the Owners for certain limited purposes, as specified herein. The Sellers and the Owners have designated WCP Seller Rep, LLC as the initial the Representative, and execution of this Agreement by the Sellers and the Owners shall, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable Legal Requirements, constitute irrevocable ratification and approval of such designation by the Sellers and the Owners and authorization of the Representative to serve in such capacity (including to settle any and all disputes with Buyer under this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement), and shall also constitute a reaffirmation, approval, acceptance and adoption of, and an agreement to comply with and perform, all of the acknowledgments and agreements made by the Representative on behalf of the Sellers and the Owners in this Agreement and the other documents delivered in connection herewith (including the Escrow Agreement). The Representative may resign at any time and the Representative may be removed only by the WCP Owners. The designation of the Representative is coupled with an interest, and, except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, such designation is irrevocable and shall not be affected by the death, incapacity, illness, bankruptcy, dissolution or other inability to act of any of the Sellers or Owners. In the event that the Representative has resigned or been removed, a new Representative shall be appointed by the WCP Owners, such appointment to become effective upon the written acceptance thereof by the new Representative. Written notice of any such resignation, removal or appointment of a Representative shall be delivered by the Representative to Buyer promptly after such action is taken.

11O. Authority and Rights of Representative; Limitations on Liability. The Representative shall have such powers and authority as are necessary or appropriate to carry out the functions assigned to it under this Agreement and in any other document delivered in connection herewith (including the Escrow Agreement); provided, however, that the Representative will have no obligation to act on behalf of the Sellers or the Owners. The Company, Buyer and the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely on the actions taken by the Representative without independent inquiry into the capacity of the Representative to so act. All actions, notices, communications and determinations by the Representative to carry out such functions shall conclusively be deemed to have been authorized by, and shall be binding upon, the Sellers and the Owners. Neither the Representative nor any of its officers, directors, managers, employees, agents or representatives shall have any liability to the Sellers or the Owners with respect to actions taken or omitted to be taken by the Representative in such capacity (or any of its officers, directors, managers, employees, agents or representatives in connection therewith), except with respect to the Representative’s willful misconduct. The Representative will at all times be entitled to rely on any directions received from the Company; provided, however, that the Representative shall not be required to follow any such direction, and shall be under no obligation to take any action in its capacity as the Representative based upon any such direction. The Representative shall be entitled to engage such counsel, experts and other agents and consultants as it shall deem necessary in connection with exercising its powers and performing its function hereunder and (in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Representative) shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the opinions and advice of such Persons. The Representative (for itself and its officers, directors, managers, employees, agents and

representatives) shall be entitled to full reimbursement by the Sellers and the Owners for all Representative Expenses and to full indemnification by the Sellers and the Owners against any loss, liability or expenses arising out of actions taken or omitted to be taken in its capacity as the Representative (except for those arising out of the Representative’s gross negligence or willful misconduct). In furtherance of the foregoing, the Representative shall have the power and authority to set aside and retain additional funds paid to or received by it, or direct payment of additional funds to be paid to the Sellers or the Owners, as Purchase Price pursuant to this Agreement at Closing or thereafter, to satisfy such obligations (including to establish such reserves as the Representative determines in good faith to be appropriate for such Representative Expenses that are not then known or determinable). The relationship created herein is not to be construed as a joint venture or any form of partnership between or among the Representative or any Seller or Owner for any purpose of U.S. federal or state law, including federal or state income tax purposes. Neither the Representative nor any of its Affiliates owes any fiduciary or other duty to any Seller or Owner.

12C. Assignment. This Agreement and all of the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective heirs, successors and permitted assigns. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder may be assigned without the prior written consent of the Representative and Buyer; provided, however, that Buyer may assign, without the prior written consent of any other party hereto (whereupon Buyer shall provide written notice thereof to the Sellers and the Owners), any of its rights, benefits or obligations under this Agreement to an Affiliate; provided, however, that no such assignment shall relieve Buyer of its obligations under this Agreement; provided, further, that, in the case of an assignment by Buyer to an Affiliate, such assignment shall not be effective vis-à-vis the other parties to this Agreement unless such Affiliate agrees in writing to assume the obligations of Buyer under this Agreement on a joint and several basis with Buyer.

12D. Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable Legal Requirements, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

12E. No Strict Construction. Notwithstanding the fact that this Agreement has been drafted or prepared by one of the parties, each of Buyer, the Sellers, the Owners and the Representative confirm that they and their respective counsel have reviewed, negotiated and adopted this Agreement as the joint agreement and understanding of the parties hereto and the language used in this Agreement shall be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties hereto to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction shall be applied against any Person.

12F. Captions. The captions used in this Agreement and descriptions of the Company Disclosure Letter are for convenience of reference only and do not constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit, characterize or in any way affect any provision of this Agreement, and all provisions of this Agreement shall be enforced and construed as if no caption or description of the Company Disclosure Letter had been used in this Agreement.

12G. Complete Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Confidentiality Agreement, the Escrow Agreement and any other agreements referred to herein or therein executed and delivered on or after the date hereof, contain the complete agreement among the parties hereto and supersede any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or between such parties, written or oral, which may have related to the subject matter hereof in any way.

12H. Company Disclosure Letter. The disclosures in the Company Disclosure Letter shall qualify the representations and warranties set forth in the corresponding section or subsections of Article 4 and Article 5 and any other representations and warranties set forth in Article 4 and Article 5 if, and to the extent that, an appropriate cross reference is contained in such section or subsection or it is readily apparent on the face of such disclosure that it applies to such other section or subsection. Certain sections of the Company Disclosure Letter contain disclosures which include more information than is required by the applicable sections or

subsections of this Agreement to which such sections or subsections relate and such additional disclosure shall not be deemed to mean that such information is required by such sections or subsections of this Agreement (by way of example, the fact that a section or subsection of this Agreement calls for a listing of material agreements does not necessarily mean that such agreement listed on the related section or subsection of the Company Disclosure Letter is material). The inclusion of information in the Company Disclosure Letter shall not be construed as or constitute an admission or agreement that a violation, right of termination, default, liability or other obligation of any kind exists with respect to any item, nor shall it be construed as or constitute an admission or agreement that such information is material to the any of the Sellers. In addition, matters reflected in the Company Disclosure Letter are not necessarily limited to matters required by this Agreement to be reflected in the Company Disclosure Letter. Such additional matters are set forth for informational purposes only and do not necessarily include other matters of a similar nature. Neither the specifications of any dollar amount in any representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement nor the inclusion of any specific item in the Company Disclosure Letter is intended to imply that such amount, or higher or lower amounts, or the item so included or other items, are or are not material, and no Person shall use the fact of the setting forth of any such amount or the inclusion of any such item in any dispute or controversy between the parties as to whether any obligation, item or matter not described herein or included in the Company Disclosure Letter is or is not material for purposes of this Agreement. Further, neither the specification of any item or matter in any representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement nor the inclusion of any specific item in the Company Disclosure Letter is intended to imply that such item or matter, or other items or matters, are or are not in the ordinary course of business, and no Person shall use the fact of setting forth or the inclusion of any such items or matter in any dispute or controversy between the parties as to whether any obligation, item or matter not described herein or included in the Company Disclosure Letter is or is not in the ordinary course of business for purposes of this Agreement.

12I. No Additional Representations; Disclaimer.

(i) Buyer acknowledges and agrees that none of the Sellers or Owners nor any of their respective Affiliates or representatives, nor any other Person acting on behalf of the Sellers or the Owners or any of their respective Affiliates or representatives has made any (and Buyer and its Affiliates have not relied on any) representation or warranty, express or implied, as to the accuracy or completeness of any information regarding the Company and its Subsidiaries or the Business, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement or as and to the extent required by this Agreement to be set forth in the Company Disclosure Letter. Buyer further agrees that none of the Sellers or Owners nor any of their respective direct or indirect Affiliates or representatives will have or be subject to any liability to Buyer or any other Person resulting from the distribution to Buyer, or Buyer’s use of, any such information, including the Confidential Information Memorandum prepared by Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx & Co. (the “Information Memorandum”), and any information, document or material made available to Buyer or its Affiliates or representatives in certain “data rooms” and online “data sites,” management presentations or any other form in expectation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(iii) In connection with Buyer’s investigation of the Company and its Subsidiaries, Buyer has received from or on behalf of the Sellers certain projections, including projected statements of operating revenues and income from operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries and certain business plan information of the Company and its Subsidiaries. Buyer acknowledges that there are uncertainties inherent in attempting to make such estimates, projections and other forecasts and plans, that Buyer is familiar with such uncertainties, that Buyer is taking full responsibility for making its own evaluation of the adequacy and accuracy of all estimates, projections and other forecasts and plans so furnished to it (including the reasonableness of the assumptions underlying such estimates, projections and forecasts), and that Buyer shall have no claim against any Seller or Owner or any other Person or any escrow amounts with respect thereto. Accordingly, the Sellers and the Owners make no representations or warranties whatsoever with respect to such estimates, projections and other forecasts and plans (including the reasonableness of the assumptions underlying such estimates, projections and forecasts), and Buyer has not relied thereon.

12J. Counterparts; Electronic Delivery. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts (including by means of telecopied or electronically transmitted signature pages), all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same Agreement. This Agreement and any signed agreement or instrument entered into in connection with this Agreement, and any amendments hereto or thereto, to the extent delivered by means of a facsimile machine or electronic mail (any such delivery, an “Electronic Delivery”), shall be treated in all manner and respects as an original agreement or instrument 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 or to any such agreement or instrument, each other party hereto or thereto shall re execute original forms thereof and deliver them to all other parties. No party hereto or to any such agreement or instrument shall raise (a) the use of Electronic Delivery to deliver a signature or (b) 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 related to lack of authenticity.

BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT, EACH PARTY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY WITH RESPECT TO SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING. THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AGREE THAT VENUE WOULD BE PROPER IN SUCH COURT, AND HEREBY WAIVE ANY OBJECTION THAT ANY SUCH COURT IS AN IMPROPER OR INCONVENIENT FORUM FOR THE RESOLUTION OF SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING. THE PARTIES HERETO FURTHER AGREE THAT THE MAILING BY CERTIFIED OR REGISTERED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, OF ANY PROCESS REQUIRED BY ANY SUCH COURT SHALL CONSTITUTE VALID AND LAWFUL SERVICE OF PROCESS AGAINST THEM, WITHOUT NECESSITY FOR SERVICE BY ANY OTHER MEANS PROVIDED BY STATUTE OR RULE OF COURT.

12M. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT EACH HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION, OR CAUSE OF ACTION (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.

12P. Specific Performance. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed by Buyer, the Sellers, or the Owners, as applicable, in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached by Buyer, the Sellers, or the Owners, as applicable.
