(b) Immediately prior to the Closing, all Options then outstanding (whether or not currently vested or exercisable) not theretofore exercised shall be cancelled (the “Option Cancellation”), without any future liability to Buyer, the Company or any other Person after the Closing, in exchange for the right to receive the payments described in the next sentence. Subject to the other provisions of this Section 2.01(b), each holder of an Option that is cancelled pursuant to the preceding sentence shall, in respect of each such Option (whether or not currently vested or exercisable), be entitled to (i) a cash payment, without interest, payable at or following the Closing in the amount set forth next to such Option Holder’s name on the Flow of Funds Statement (which amount takes into account the exercise price with respect to the underlying Option) (the “Closing Option Payment”) and (ii) the right to receive a proportionate amount of the Indemnity Escrow Amount, Working Capital Escrow Amount and any amounts released from the Shareholder Representative Account (all such amounts payable to the Option Holders in respect of their Options under this Section 2.01(b), the “Option Payments”).

Section 2.02 Purchase Price and Allocation. The aggregate purchase price for the Shares and Options shall be Seventy Five Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($75,500,000), subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 2.07 (the “Purchase Price”).

The Working Capital Escrow Amount will be maintained as security for the payment by Sellers of any Post-Closing Adjustment and the Indemnity Escrow Amount will be maintained as security for the payment by Sellers of certain claims for Losses by Buyer and its successors and permitted assigns against Sellers as more particularly described in Article VII. All investments of the Escrow Amount shall be selected by Shareholder Representative in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement.

If Shareholder Representative fails to deliver the Statement of Objections before the expiration of the Review Period, the Closing Working Capital Statement and the Post-Closing Adjustment reflected in the Closing Working Capital Statement shall be deemed to have been accepted by Shareholder Representative and Sellers. If Shareholder Representative delivers the Statement of Objections before the expiration of the Review Period, Buyer and Shareholder Representative shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such objections within thirty (30) days after the delivery of the Statement of Objections (the “Resolution Period”), and, if the same are so resolved within the Resolution Period, the Post-Closing Adjustment and the Closing Working Capital Statement, with such changes as may have been previously agreed in writing by Buyer and Shareholder Representative, shall be final and binding.

(iii) Resolution of Disputes. If Shareholder Representative and Buyer fail to reach an agreement with respect to all of the matters set forth in the Statement of Objections before expiration of the Resolution Period, then any amounts remaining in dispute (“Disputed Amounts”) shall be submitted for resolution to the office of Ernst & Young LLP or, if such Person is unable to serve, Buyer and Shareholder Representative shall appoint by mutual agreement the office of an impartial nationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants other than any accountants of any Seller or Buyer’s accountants (the “Independent Accountant”) who, acting as experts and not arbitrators, shall resolve the Disputed Amounts only and make any adjustments to the Post-Closing Adjustment, as the case may be, and the Closing Working Capital Statement.

regard to materiality. The Independent Accountant shall only decide the specific items under dispute by the Parties and the Independent Accountant’s decision for each Disputed Amount must be within the range of values assigned to each such item in the Closing Working Capital Statement and the Statement of Objections, respectively.

(iv) Fees of the Independent Accountant. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant shall be split and paid equally between Shareholder Representative, with such fees and expenses constituting Reimbursement Expenses, and Buyer.

(v) Determination by Independent Accountant. The Independent Accountant shall make a determination as soon as practicable within thirty (30) days (or such other time as the Parties shall agree in writing) after its engagement, and its resolution of the Disputed Amounts and its adjustments to the Closing Working Capital Statement and/or the Post-Closing Adjustment shall be conclusive and binding upon the Parties.

(vi) Payments of Post-Closing Adjustment. Except as otherwise provided herein, any payment of the Post-Closing Adjustment shall be due (A) within ten (10) Business Days of acceptance of the applicable Closing Working Capital Statement, or (B) if there are Disputed Amounts, then within ten (10) Business Days of the resolution described in Section 2.07(c)(v). If the Post-Closing Adjustment is a positive number, (X) the Purchase Price shall be increased by the amount of the Post-Closing Adjustment, (Y) (1) with respect to amounts payable to Sellers (other than amounts payable to the Option Holders in respect of their Options), Buyer shall pay to Sellers an amount equal to the value of the portion of the Post-Closing Adjustment payable to such Sellers by wire transfer to one or more accounts as may be designated by Shareholder Representative, and (2) with respect to amounts payable to Option Holders in respect of their Options, Buyer shall pay to the Company an amount equal to the value of the portion of the Post-Closing Adjustment payable to such Option Holders by wire transfer to an account as may be designated by the Company for distribution to such Option Holders through the Company’s payroll, and (Z) any portion of the Working Capital Escrow Amount remaining in the Working Capital Escrow Account shall be disbursed to Sellers in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Escrow Agreement. If the Post-Closing Adjustment is a negative number, (W) the Purchase Price shall be decreased by the amount of such Post-Closing Adjustment, (X) Buyer and Shareholder Representative shall cause the Escrow Agent to disburse to Buyer from the Working Capital Escrow Account an amount equal to the value of the Post-Closing Adjustment, (Y) any portion of the Working Capital Escrow Amount remaining in the Working Capital Escrow Account, if any, shall be disbursed to Sellers in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Escrow Agreement, and (Z) if such Post-Closing Adjustment is greater than the Working Capital Escrow Amount, each Seller shall pay, on a pro rata basis (each Seller’s pro rata portion being as set forth on Exhibit B), to Buyer the difference between such Post-Closing Adjustment and the Working Capital Escrow Amount, by wire transfer to an account designated by Buyer. The amount of any Post-Closing Adjustment shall not bear interest.

(d) Adjustments for Tax Purposes. Any payments made pursuant to this Section 2.07 shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price by the Parties for Tax purposes, unless

otherwise required by Law.

Section 2.08 Withholding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Buyer and the Company (and any other Person that has a withholding obligation with respect to any payment made pursuant to this Agreement) shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any Person such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or any provision of state, local or foreign Law. To the extent that amounts are so deducted and withheld and paid over to the appropriate Governmental Authority, such deducted and withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to such Person in respect of whom such deduction and withholding were made.

Any disclosure in any such Schedule Supplement shall not be deemed to have cured any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement, including for purposes of the indemnification or termination rights contained in this Agreement or of determining whether or not the conditions set forth in Section 6.02 have been satisfied; provided, however, that if Buyer has the right to, but does not elect to, terminate this Agreement within ten (10) Business Days of its receipt of such Schedule Supplement, then Buyer shall be deemed to

have irrevocably waived any right to terminate this Agreement with respect to such matter and, further, shall have irrevocably waived its right to indemnification under Section 7.02 with respect to such matter.

Section 5.04 Notification. Between the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date, the Company, on the one hand, and Buyer on the other hand, shall promptly notify the other in writing of any fact, circumstance, event or action the existence, occurrence or taking of which (a) has had, or could reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect on the Company, (b) has resulted in, or could reasonably be expected to result in, any representation or warranty made by such Party hereunder not being true and correct or (c) has resulted in, or could reasonably be expected to result in, the failure of any of the conditions set forth in Article VI to be satisfied; provided, however that such disclosure, except to the extent waived by Buyer pursuant to Section 5.03, shall not be deemed to have cured any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement, including for purposes of the indemnification or termination rights contained in this Agreement or for determining whether or not the conditions set forth in Article VI have been satisfied.

Section 5.05 Employees; Benefit Plans.

(a) During the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the first anniversary of the Closing Date, Buyer shall (or shall cause the Company to) (i) provide each employee who remains employed immediately after the Closing, which shall be substantially all employees of the Company (subject to Buyer’s right to terminate any such employee at any time under clause (ii) below) (the “Continuing Employees”): (A) base salary or hourly wages which are no less than the base salary or hourly wages provided by the Company immediately prior to the Closing; (B) target annual cash incentive compensation opportunities (which shall not include any special, one-time cash incentive opportunities, such as retention bonuses), which are no less than the target annual cash incentive compensation opportunities provided by the Company immediately prior to the Closing; and (C) employee benefits that are no less favorable in the aggregate than the employee benefits maintained by the Company for the Continuing Employees as of the Signing Date; and (ii) for those employees terminated without cause at any time during the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the first anniversary of the Closing Date, pay the severance amounts set forth on Section 5.05(a)(i) of the Disclosure Schedules. Buyer further agrees that, from and after the Closing Date, Buyer shall (or shall cause the Company to) grant the Continuing Employees with credit for any service with the Company and/or its ERISA Affiliates earned prior to the Closing Date (A) for eligibility and vesting purposes and (B) for purposes of vacation accrual and severance benefit determinations under any benefit or compensation plan, program, agreement or arrangement that may be established or maintained by Buyer or the Company or any of its subsidiaries after the Closing (the “New Plans”), except to the extent such recognition would result in a duplication of benefits. For the avoidance of doubt, in respect of any New Plan that provides for any “defined benefit” accruals and calculations, the service credit shall apply with respect to eligibility and not for purposes of benefit accrual calculations. In addition, Buyer hereby agrees that Buyer shall (or shall cause the

Company to) take commercially reasonable steps to (1) cause to be waived all actively-at-work requirements and similar limitations, eligibility waiting periods and evidence of insurability requirements under any New Plans to the extent waived or satisfied by an employee under any Benefit Plan as of the Closing Date and (2) cause any covered expenses incurred on or before the Closing Date during 2016 by any employee (or covered dependent thereof) of the Company to be taken into account for purposes of satisfying applicable deductible, coinsurance and maximum out-of-pocket provisions after the Closing Date under any applicable New Plan with respect to the 2016 calendar year. Nothing contained herein, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any employee of the Company any right to continued employment for any period or constitute an amendment to, or any other modification of, any New Plan or Benefit Plan. For the avoidance of doubt, Buyer further agrees that it shall honor, and shall cause the Company to honor, all accrued but unused vacation, paid time off, and sick time for each Continuing Employee to the extent such unused vacation, paid time off, or sick time is reflected on Section 5.05(a)(ii) of the Disclosure Schedules.

(c) This Section 5.05 shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each of the Parties, and nothing in this Section 5.05, express or implied, shall confer upon any other Person any rights or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Section 5.05. Nothing contained herein, express or implied, shall be construed to establish, amend or modify any Benefit Plan, or other program, agreement or arrangement. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the terms set forth in this Section 5.05 shall not create any right in any employee of the Company or in any other Person to any continued employment or service with the Company, Buyer or any of their respective Affiliates or compensation or benefits of any nature or kind whatsoever.

(b) (i) All rights to exculpation and indemnification now existing in favor of the Covered Persons as provided in the Company’s Organizational Documents on the date hereof shall be maintained in such documents and shall survive the Closing and shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms, (ii) Buyer shall not cause or permit the Company to amend the Company’s Organizational Documents in any way that would violate the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.06, except to the extent required by applicable Law and (iii) if the Company is reorganized into any other form of legal entity other than a Utah corporation, Buyer shall ensure that the Organizational Documents for such reorganized entity contain substantially equivalent provisions for the continued exculpation and indemnification of the Covered Persons as provided in the Company’s Organizational Documents existing on the date hereof.

(c) The Company shall, and Buyer shall cause the Company to (i) maintain in effect for a period of six (6) years after the Closing Date, if available, the current policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance maintained by the Company immediately prior to the Closing Date (provided that the Company may substitute therefor policies, of at least the same coverage and amounts and containing terms and conditions that are not less advantageous to the directors and officers of the Company when compared to the insurance maintained by the Company as of the Signing Date), or (ii) obtain as of the Closing Date “tail” insurance policies with a claims period of six (6) years from the Closing Date with at least the same coverage and amounts, and containing terms and conditions that are not less advantageous to the directors and officers of the Company, in each case with respect to claims arising out of or relating to events which occurred on or prior to the Closing Date (including in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement); provided, however, that in no event shall Buyer or the Company be required to expend an annual premium for such coverage in excess of 250% of the last annual premium paid by the Company for such insurance prior to the Signing Date (the “Maximum Premium”) and provided further that if such insurance coverage cannot be obtained at an annual premium equal to or less than the Maximum Premium, the Company shall obtain, and Buyer shall cause the Company to obtain, that amount of directors’ and officers’ insurance (or “tail” coverage) obtainable for an annual premium equal to the Maximum Premium.

(d) The obligations of Buyer and the Company under this Section 5.06 shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely affect any director or officer to whom this Section 5.06 applies without the consent of such affected director or officer (it being expressly agreed that the directors and officers to whom this Section 5.06 applies shall be third-party beneficiaries of this Section 5.06, each of whom may enforce the provisions of this Section 5.06).

(e) In the event Buyer, the Company or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity in such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in either such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Buyer or the Company, as the case may be, shall assume all of the obligations set forth in this Section 5.06.

Section 5.07 Confidentiality. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that the Confidentiality Agreement remains in full force and effect and, in addition, covenants and agrees to keep confidential, in accordance with the provisions of the Confidentiality Agreement, information provided to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement.

(iv) provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, it is expressly understood and agreed by the Parties that (y) any Non-Compete Seller and such Non-Compete Seller’s Affiliates may acquire, hold or otherwise own, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, the Shoe Assets and conduct business with respect thereto and (z) any action prohibited by this Section 5.13(a) shall not constitute a breach of this Section 5.13(a) so long as such action is with respect to the conduct of business related to the Shoe Assets.

(b) Buyer may not sell, assign or otherwise transfer this covenant not to compete, in whole or in part, to any Person without the prior written consent of Shareholder Representative; provided that Buyer may sell, assign and/or transfer this covenant not to compete, in whole or in part, to any Person that purchases all or substantially all of the Company Business; it being expressly understood that the covenant contained in Section 5.13(a)(ii) may not be sold, assigned or transferred, without the prior written consent of Shareholder Representative, to the extent that it is applicable to Buyer and not the Company. Recognizing the specialized nature of the Company Business, Non-Compete Sellers acknowledge and agree that the duration, geographic scope and activity restrictions of this Section 5.13 are reasonable. For purposes of clarification only, no portion of the Purchase Price shall be allocated to the covenants set forth in this Section 5.13.

Section 5.14 No Solicitation of Transactions. From the Signing Date and until the earlier of the Closing or the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article VIII, neither

Sellers nor the Company shall, directly or indirectly, through any Representative of any of them or otherwise, initiate, solicit or encourage (including by way of furnishing information or assistance) or enter into discussions or negotiations of any type, directly or indirectly, or enter into a confidentiality agreement, letter of intent or other similar agreement with any Person other than Buyer with respect to a sale of all or any substantial portion of the Company Business or its assets, or a merger, consolidation, business combination, sale of all or any substantial portion of the capital stock of the Company, or the liquidation or similar extraordinary transaction with respect to the Company; provided that nothing contained herein shall be deemed to prohibit, limit or in any way restrict the sale, assignment or transfer of any of the Excluded Assets pursuant to Section 2.04. The Company and Sellers hereby acknowledge that as of the Signing Date they are not engaged in ongoing discussions or negotiations with any party other than Buyer with respect to any of the foregoing. The Company and Sellers agree not to release any third party from, or waive any provision of, any confidentiality or standstill agreement to which the Company is a party. The Company and Sellers will immediately notify Buyer (orally and in writing) if any discussions or negotiations are sought to be initiated, any inquiry or proposal is made, or any information is requested with respect to any of the foregoing, with such notification including the terms of any such inquiry or proposal received in respect of the foregoing.

Section 5.15 Confidential Information.

Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit (i) any Non-Compete Seller, Shareholder Representative or any of their respective Affiliates and Representatives from using or disclosing information to the extent solely relating to the Shoe Assets, and (ii) any Non-Compete Seller or any Affiliate of such Non-Compete Seller from using or disclosing Confidential Information: (A) to the extent reasonably necessary for such Non-Compete Seller to comply with the terms of this Agreement or any other agreement or instruments executed in connection herewith, (B) to the extent such Non-Compete Seller or any Affiliate of such Non-Compete Seller determines that such use or disclosure is reasonably necessary for the defense of any proceeding against such Non-Compete Seller or Affiliate of such Non-Compete Seller, including in connection with challenging or defending any claim for indemnification under Article VII, (C) to the extent required by Law or accounting requirements, including in connection with any accounting, audit, Tax or regulatory compliance of any Non-Compete Seller or any Affiliate thereof, or (D) to the extent disclosure is mandated by any Governmental Order; provided that, in the case of clauses (B), (C) and (D) above, such Non-Compete Seller (I) provides Buyer with prompt written notice of such mandated disclosure prior to such disclosure being made, (II) cooperates reasonably with Buyer’s effort to obtain a protective order or other confidentiality treatment with respect to such Confidential Information whose disclosure is mandated, and (III) discloses only that portion of such Confidential Information required to be disclosed.

(b) During the Restricted Period, Buyer and the Company shall, and shall cause each of their respective Affiliates and Representatives to, hold all information, whether or not patentable, copyrightable or trademarkable, to the extent solely relating to the Shoe Assets (whether or not marked as confidential) that is not generally available to the public in confidence and not disclose any such information to any Person other than the other Parties, and not use any such information for the benefit of Buyer, the Company or any third party.

Section 5.16 Tax Matters. The following provisions shall govern the allocation of responsibility as between Buyer on the one hand and Sellers on the other hand for certain Tax matters:

(a) Straddle Period. In the case of any Straddle Period, (i) the amount of any Taxes based on or measured by income, receipts, payroll or sales of the Company that are related to the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be determined based on an interim closing of the books as of the close of business on the Closing Date, and (ii) the amount of other Taxes of the Company that are related to the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the taxable period contemplated in clause (i) and the denominator of which is the number of days in such Straddle Period. All determinations necessary to give effect to the foregoing allocations shall be made in a manner consistent with reasonable prior practice of the Company, except as otherwise required by Law.

(b) Responsibility for Filing Tax Returns.

(i) Shareholder Representative shall prepare or cause to be prepared, and timely file or cause to be timely filed, in a manner consistent with past practice, (i) all Tax Returns of the Company required to be filed (taking into account any applicable extension) on or before the Closing Date and (ii) the Company’s final S corporation income Tax Return for the year in which the Closing Date occurs, even if such income Tax Return is due after the Closing

Date. Sellers shall pay all Taxes shown to be due on such Tax Returns. Shareholder Representative will provide Buyer with a draft of any such Tax Return for Buyer’s review and comment at least twenty (20) days prior to the earlier of the due date thereof (giving effect to any extensions thereto) and the date Shareholder Representative intends to file such Tax Return, and Shareholder Representative will reasonably consider incorporating any reasonable comments of Buyer to any such Tax Return.

(ii) Buyer will prepare or cause to be prepared, and cause to be timely filed, any Tax Return of the Company with respect to any taxable periods ending before or on the Closing Date that is not described in Section 5.16(b)(i) that is due after the Closing Date. Buyer will provide Shareholder Representative with a draft of any such Tax Return that relates to a Pre-Closing Tax Period for Shareholder Representative’s review and comment at least twenty (20) days prior to the earlier of the due date thereof (giving effect to any extensions thereto) and the date Buyer intends to file such Tax Return, and Buyer will accept and incorporate any reasonable comments of Shareholder Representative to any such Tax Return. Sellers shall pay to Buyer all Taxes due with respect to such Tax Return by the later to occur of (A) two (2) Business Days before payment of Taxes (including estimated Taxes) is due to the applicable Governmental Authority and (B) twenty (20) days after the date on which Shareholder Representative receives the draft of such Tax Return.

(iii) Buyer will prepare or cause to be prepared, and cause to be timely filed, any Tax Return of the Company with respect to a Straddle Period (a “Straddle Period Tax Return”). Buyer will provide Shareholder Representative with a draft of any such Straddle Period Tax Return for Shareholder Representative’s review and comment at least twenty (20) days prior to the earlier of the due date thereof (giving effect to any extensions thereto) and the date Buyer intends to file such Straddle Period Tax Return, and Buyer will accept and incorporate any reasonable comments of Shareholder Representative to any such Straddle Period Tax Return, provided, that if such Straddle Period Tax Return is for a Buyer Tax Group, then Buyer is only required to provide Shareholder Representative with a copy of the portion of such Straddle Period Tax Return solely relating to the Company. Sellers shall pay to Buyer all Taxes due with respect to such Straddle Period Tax Return that are allocated to Sellers in accordance with Section 5.16(a) by the later to occur of (A) two (2) Business Days before payment of Taxes (including estimated Taxes) is due to the applicable Governmental Authority and (B) twenty (20) days after the date on which Shareholder Representative receives the draft of such Tax Return.

(iv) Except as specifically provided in Section 5.16(b)(ii) and (iii) and Section 5.16(h), neither Buyer nor any of its Affiliates shall (or after the Closing, shall cause or permit the Company to) file, amend, refile or otherwise modify (or grant an extension of any statute of limitations with respect to) any Tax Return relating in whole or in part to the Company with respect to any taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date without the prior written consent of Shareholder Representative, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. Sellers shall not cause the Company to engage in any transaction before the Closing or on the Closing Date that is outside the ordinary course of business (other than transactions contemplated in this Agreement) that would result in any increased liability of Buyer for Taxes.

(c) Cooperation on Tax Matters. The Parties shall cooperate in connection with the filing of Tax Returns pursuant to this Section 5.16 and in connection with any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes related to the Company, including:

(i) retaining until the expiration of the statute of limitations (and, to the extent notified by Buyer, any extensions thereof) and (upon request) sharing relevant records and information and providing explanations with respect thereto;

(ii) using commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any Governmental Authority or other Person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any Tax that could be imposed (including with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby); and

(iii) providing information required to report pursuant to Code § 6043, Code § 6043A or Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder.

(d) Tax Refunds. Any Tax refund or credit against Tax (or portion thereof that relates to a Pre-Closing Tax Period) that is received by Buyer, the Company, or any Affiliate thereof after the Closing, or that was received prior to the Closing but which was not paid to Sellers and which was not taken into account in the calculation of the Closing Working Capital, as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.07, that relates to any Pre-Closing Tax Period of the Company (to the extent such Taxes were paid by the Company prior to the Closing or by Sellers prior to or after the Closing), shall be for the account of Sellers, except to the extent such refund or credit arises as the result of a carryback of a loss or other Tax benefit from a taxable period (or portion thereof) beginning after the Closing Date or such refund or credit was included as an asset in the calculation of the Closing Working Capital, as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.07, and Buyer shall pay over to Sellers, within fifteen (15) days after receipt thereof, an amount equal to such refund or credit net of the reasonable expenses (including income Taxes) incurred to obtain such refund or credit. To the extent such refund or credit is subsequently disallowed or required to be returned to the applicable Governmental Authority, Sellers agree promptly to repay the amount of such refund or credit, together with any interest, penalties or other additional amounts imposed by such Governmental Authority, to Buyer.

(e) Transaction Expenses and Other Expenses. It is the express intent of Buyer, Sellers and the Company that, to the maximum extent permitted by Law, any item of loss or deduction deductible for income Tax purposes that is directly attributable to the payment of costs or expenses (including, by way of example only, any compensatory bonuses, change of control bonuses, fees, costs, the payment of any expenses, including Transaction Expenses) or other amounts in the nature of compensation or similar consideration for Tax purposes paid or incurred by the Company in connection with or arising from the transactions contemplated in this Agreement (e.g., the payment of option-related payments) (a “Transaction Tax Deduction”) shall be for the sole benefit of the Company as owned by Sellers, and deducted by the Company during the Pre-Closing Tax Period, and reported on any Tax Return of the Company filed with respect to the Pre-Closing Tax Period. If, for whatever reason, any such Transaction Tax Deduction is not taken into account on any Tax Return of the Company filed with respect to the Pre-Closing Tax Period and is, instead, taken into account on a Tax Return of the Company filed

with respect to any taxable year or period (or portion thereof) starting after the Closing Date, then Buyer shall pay to Sellers, in cash, an amount equal to the amount of any Transaction Tax Benefit actually realized by the Company with respect to the taxable period beginning after the Closing Date ending on or before December 31, 2017. The amount so paid shall be treated by the Parties, unless otherwise required by Law, as an increase in the Purchase Price for all purposes of this Agreement.

(f) Tax Contests. Buyer and the Company (following the Closing), on the one hand, and Sellers, on the other hand, shall promptly notify each other upon receipt by such Party of written notice of any inquiries, claims, assessments, audits or similar events with respect to Taxes relating to a Pre-Closing Tax Period (any such inquiry, claim, assessment, audit or similar event, a “Tax Contest”). Any failure to so notify any other Party of any Tax Contest shall not relieve such other Party of any liability with respect to such Tax Contests except to the extent such Party was actually prejudiced as a result thereof. Sellers shall have sole control of the conduct of all Tax Contests with respect to a taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date except to the extent that such Tax Contest is related to the Tax Returns of the Company on which the consequences of the Section 338(h)(10) Election are reported, including any settlement or compromise thereof, provided, however, that Sellers shall keep Buyer reasonably informed of the progress of any such Tax Contest, and if such Tax Contest could reasonably be expected to have an adverse effect on the Company or Buyer in a taxable period (or portion thereof) beginning on or after the Closing Date, Sellers shall provide Buyer with the right to participate in any such Tax Contest at Buyer’s expense, and shall not affect any settlement or compromise without Buyer’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Except as provided below, Buyer shall have sole control with respect to Tax Contests involving Straddle Periods and all Tax Contests to the extent relating to the Tax Returns of the Company on which the consequences of the Section 338(h)(10) Election are reported and shall keep Shareholder Representative reasonably informed of the progress of any such Tax Contest, and shall not affect any settlement or compromise with respect to which Sellers are liable without obtaining Shareholder Representative’s prior written consent thereto, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, however that if such Tax Contest could reasonably be expected to have an adverse effect on either the Company, for any period ending on or prior to the Closing Date, or any Seller, then Buyer shall provide Shareholder Representative with the right to participate in such Tax Contest at Sellers’ expense. In such a case, if Shareholder Representative exercises such right, then to the extent a matter raised during such Tax Contest would reasonably be expected to have an adverse effect on either the Company, for any period ending on or prior to the Closing Date, or any Seller, then Buyer shall not effect any settlement or compromise of that matter without obtaining Shareholder Representative’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(g) S Corporation Status. The Company and Sellers shall not revoke the Company’s election to be taxed as an S corporation within the meaning of Code §§ 1361 and 1362. The Company and Sellers shall not take or allow any action other than the sale of the Company’s stock pursuant to this Agreement, and any elections with respect thereto, that would

result in the termination of the Company’s status as a validly electing S corporation within the meaning of Code §§ 1361 and 1362.

(h) Section 338(h)(10).

(i) Election. At Buyer’s option, Buyer and each Seller shall join in making an election under Code § 338(h)(10) (and any corresponding election under state, local, or foreign Tax Law), with respect to the purchase and sale of the Company’s stock hereunder (collectively, a “Section 338(h)(10) Election”). In the event the Section 338(h)(10) Election is made, Buyer, the Company and Sellers shall not take any action that could cause the Section 338(h)(10) Election to be invalid, and shall take no position contrary thereto unless required pursuant to a determination as defined in Code § 1313(a) or any similar provision of any state, local or foreign Law. Sellers shall include any income, gain, loss, deduction, or other Tax item resulting from the Section 338(h)(10) Election on their Tax Returns to the extent required by applicable Law and will pay any Tax attributable to the making of a Section 338(h)(10) Election. No later than thirty (30) days following the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare IRS Form 8023 and any similar forms necessary to effectuate the Section 338(h)(10) Election under applicable state, local and foreign Tax Laws (collectively, the “Section 338(h)(10) Election Forms”). Sellers shall cooperate with Buyer in the preparation of the Section 338(h)(10) Election Forms and shall deliver to Buyer two (2) duly completed and executed copies thereof. Buyer and Sellers shall cooperate with each other and take all actions necessary and appropriate (including filing such additional forms, Tax Returns, elections, schedules and other documents as may be required) to effectuate and preserve the Section 338(h)(10) Election in accordance with the provisions of Treasury Regulations § 1.338(h)(10)-1 and comparable provisions of applicable state, local and foreign Tax Laws.

(ii) Allocation of Purchase Price. Within sixty (60) days after the determination of the Closing Working Capital pursuant to Section 2.07, Buyer shall determine and deliver to Shareholder Representative a schedule setting forth the allocation of the Purchase Price among the assets of the Company as of the Closing grouped by the seven asset classes referred to in Treasury Regulations § 1.1060-1(c) and described in Treasury Regulations § 1.338-6(b) (the “Purchase Price Allocation Schedule”), which Purchase Price Allocation Schedule shall be substantially consistent with the terms set forth on Exhibit F. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no amount of the Purchase Price shall be allocated to the covenants contemplated in this Agreement. The Purchase Price Allocation Schedule shall be subject to Shareholder Representative’s comment and approval, not to be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed, provided, however, that Sellers shall accept Buyer’s determination of the Purchase Price allocation to the extent that the Purchase Price allocation is reasonable and consistent with the allocation set forth at Exhibit F and applicable Law. Within fifteen (15) days following delivery of the Purchase Price Allocation Schedule, Buyer shall prepare consistently therewith IRS Form 8883 and any similar forms required by applicable state, local and foreign Tax Laws (collectively, the “Section 338(h)(10) Allocation Forms”), and promptly deliver copies of the Section 338(h)(10) Allocation Forms to Sellers. Sellers and Buyer agree and acknowledge that (A) neither Sellers nor Buyer shall, absent mutual written agreement, challenge or dispute the allocations set forth in the Purchase Price Allocation Schedule, (B) each of Buyer and Sellers shall file all Tax Returns in a manner consistent with the

Purchase Price Allocation Schedule, and (C) neither Sellers nor Buyer will take any position inconsistent therewith in any Return, refund claim, litigation, or otherwise unless required pursuant to a determination as defined in Code § 1313(a) or any similar provision of any state, local or foreign Law. If pursuant to this Agreement, the amount allocated to any asset or asset class is increased or decreased after the filing of any Section 338(h)(10) Allocation Form, then the Parties shall timely file a supplement to the applicable Section 338(h)(10) Allocation Form in a manner consistent with this Agreement, Code §§ 338 and 1060, and the Treasury Regulations thereunder.

(iii) Each of Buyer and Sellers shall bear its respective costs and expenses of preparing and reviewing the Section 338(h)(10) Election Forms, the Purchase Price Allocation Schedule and the Section 338(h)(10) Allocation Forms.

(i) Conflicts. In the event of any conflict or overlap between the provisions of this Section 5.16 and Article VII, the provisions of this Section 5.16 shall control.

Section 5.17 Plant Closings and Mass Layoffs. To the extent applicable, Buyer shall comply, with respect to the Company, with the WARN Act and any equivalent state Law in any state in which the Company does business. Buyer expressly assumes all liabilities and responsibility for any Losses attributable to any failure by Buyer or the Company at or following the Closing to comply with the WARN Act and any equivalent state Law in any state in which the Company does business.

Section 5.18 Excluded Asset Transactions. The Company and Sellers shall cause the transactions contemplated by Section 2.04 regarding the Excluded Assets to occur in full at or prior to the Closing.

(a) The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for indemnification under Section 7.02(a)(i) or Section 7.03(a) until the aggregate amount of all Losses in respect of indemnification under Section 7.02(a)(i) or Section 7.03(a) exceeds $377,500 (the “Deductible”), in which event the Indemnifying Party shall only be required to pay or be liable for Losses in excess of the Deductible.

(b) With respect to any claim as to which the Indemnified Party may be entitled to indemnification under Section 7.02(a)(i), Section 7.02(a)(ii) (except with respect to a claim under Section 7.02(a)(ii) for a breach of any covenant in Section 2.07), Section 7.03(a) or Section 7.03(b) (except with respect to a claim under Section 7.03(b) for a breach of any covenant in Section 2.07), the Indemnifying Party shall not, together in the aggregate, be liable for any individual or series of related Losses which do not exceed $25,000 (which Losses shall be counted toward the Deductible).

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the limitations set forth in Section 7.04(a) and Section 7.04(b) shall not apply to Losses based upon, arising out of, with respect to, or by reason of, any (i) inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty in the Fundamental Representations or (ii) fraud on the part of any Seller or the Company.

(d) The aggregate amount of all Losses for which Buyer or Sellers shall be liable pursuant to Section 7.02(a)(i) or Section 7.03(a) (other than, in each case, with respect to Fundamental Representations, Special Representations or fraud on the part of Buyer, any Seller or the Company) shall not exceed the Indemnity Escrow Amount; provided, however, that any Losses for which Sellers shall be liable pursuant to Section 7.02(a)(i) with respect to the Special Representations shall not exceed twenty percent (20%) of the Purchase Price (as may be adjusted pursuant to this Agreement); provided further, that any Losses for which Sellers shall be liable pursuant to Section 7.02(a)(i) or for which Buyer shall be liable pursuant to Section 7.03(a) with respect to the Fundamental Representations or arising from fraud on the part of Buyer, any Seller or the Company shall not exceed, in the aggregate, the Purchase Price (as may be adjusted pursuant to this Agreement).

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Majority Sellers’ and Xxxx Sellers’ respective share of any obligation to indemnify the Buyer Indemnitees under this Article VII, or otherwise under this Agreement for any Loss (other than any Loss based upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason of any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations or warranties of Sellers contained in Section 3.01(a), Section 3.02(c), Section 3.03(a), Section 3.05(a) or Section 3.22(a)) shall be limited solely to the Majority Sellers’ or Xxxx Sellers’, as applicable, aggregate pro rata shares of such Loss. The pro rata share of each Seller is equal to the percentage set forth opposite the respective Seller’s name on Exhibit B (“Post-Closing Payment and Indemnification Allocation”).

(f) Buyer’s exclusive remedy for all claims for damages related to Section 7.02(a)(i) (other than with respect to claims relating to fraud on the part of any Seller or the Company) shall be first, the Indemnity Escrow Amount and, second, the R&W Policy and, third, in the case of the Fundamental Representations and the Special Representations, Sellers for any amounts: (i) not acknowledged as covered and payable under the R&W Policy by the Insurer within the timeframe for such acknowledgement set forth in the R&W Policy; and/or (ii) in excess of the applicable liability limits set forth in the R&W Policy, subject to the applicable caps set forth in this Agreement. Except as set forth in this Section 7.04(f), Sellers shall have no obligation to Buyer with respect to Losses arising under Section 7.02(a)(i). With respect to claims for damages for a breach of the Fundamental Representations and the Special Representations, Buyer shall use good faith efforts to obtain acknowledgement from the Insurer that such claims are covered under the R&W Policy, it being understood that the foregoing provision shall not be interpreted to require Buyer to take any effort with respect to claims that are not actually covered under the R&W Policy.

(g) From and after the Closing Date, Buyer shall not (and shall cause its Affiliates to not) amend the R&W Policy in a manner which would materially prejudice Sellers without Sellers’ prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), provided that the foregoing provision shall not be interpreted to in any way impair or diminish the right of Buyer or any other insured under the R&W Policy to: (i) pursue and obtain recovery for any Loss under the R&W Policy, or (ii) assign its rights under the R&W Policy consistent with Section XIII(E) thereof.

(h) Buyer shall not be entitled to recover under Section 7.02 (i) to the extent the matter in question has specifically been reserved for in a line item in the Closing Working Capital as determined based on the balance sheet delivered as part of the Closing Working Capital Statement (as the same may be adjusted pursuant to Section 2.07(c)), and (ii) with respect to any Environmental Claim or any costs arising out of any Environmental Claim to the extent caused, created, aggravated or exacerbated by Buyer, any Affiliate of Buyer or any of their respective Representatives or invitees.

(i) Payments by an Indemnifying Party pursuant to Section 7.02 or Section 7.03 in respect of any Loss shall be limited to the amount of any liability or damage that remains after deducting therefrom any insurance proceeds, and any indemnity, contribution or other similar payment, in each case actually received by the Indemnified Party (or the Company) in respect of

any such claim, net of any collection costs. The Indemnified Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to recover under insurance policies (including the R&W Policy) or other indemnity, contribution or other similar agreements for any Losses, subject to Section 7.04(f); provided that the Indemnified Party shall not be required to litigate any dispute, or otherwise bring any claim, lawsuit or other proceeding to obtain such insurance proceeds.

(j) Payments by an Indemnifying Party pursuant to Section 7.02 or Section 7.03 in respect of any Loss shall be reduced by an amount equal to any net Tax benefit actually realized by the Indemnified Party as a result of such Loss for the taxable year in which such Loss arose and the immediately following taxable year. For purposes of this Section 7.04(j), the amount of any Tax benefit shall be the amount of any refund of Taxes received, credit against Taxes owed, or reduction in the amount of Taxes which otherwise would have been paid by the Indemnified Party, taking into account (i) any item of Tax deduction or loss attributable to the amount of the Loss for which the indemnity payment is made (and assuming such item is the last item available for use) and (ii) the effects of state, local and foreign Taxes.

(k) For purposes of this Article VII, any Losses with respect to any breach of the representations and warranties herein shall be determined without regard to materiality, Material Adverse Effect, or other similar qualification contained in or otherwise applicable to such representations and warranties solely for determining the scope or amount of any Losses, but not for purposes of determining the existence of any breach of such representations and warranties.

(l) Each Indemnified Party shall take, and cause its Affiliates to take, all reasonable steps to mitigate any Loss upon becoming aware of any event or circumstance that would be reasonably expected to, or does, give rise thereto, including incurring costs only to the extent reasonably necessary to remedy the breach that gives rise to such Loss.

(m) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement (other than the lower liability limits as provided in Section 7.04(d)), the aggregate amount of Losses to which Buyer or any Seller shall be liable shall not exceed, in the case of Buyer, the Purchase Price (as may be adjusted pursuant to this Agreement), and in the case of any Seller, such Seller’s pro rata share of the Purchase Price (each Seller’s pro rata share being equal to such Seller’s Post-Closing Payment and Indemnification Allocation).

Section 7.05 Indemnification Procedures.

(a) Third-Party Claims. If any Indemnified Party receives notice of the assertion or commencement of any action, suit, claim or other legal proceeding made or brought by any Person who is not a Party or an Affiliate of a Party or a Representative of the foregoing (a “Third-Party Claim”) against such Indemnified Party with respect to which the Indemnifying Party is obligated to provide indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party prompt written notice thereof. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure. To the extent the Third-Party Claim arises as a result of a breach of the representations set forth in Article III, Buyer shall also provide prompt notice of such Third-Party Claim to the Insurer as provided in the R&W Policy. Each notice by the Indemnified Party

shall describe the Third-Party Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in, or by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party, to assume the defense of any Third-Party Claim at the Indemnifying Party’s expense and by the Indemnifying Party’s own counsel, which shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in good faith in such defense; provided that the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume the defense of any Third-Party Claim (i) for equitable or injunctive relief or (ii) that alleges Losses in excess of the Indemnifying Party’s maximum indemnification obligations under this Agreement and the Indemnified Party believes in good faith that such allegation would be reasonably likely to lead to Losses in excess of the Indemnifying Party’s maximum indemnification obligation. In the event that the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third-Party Claim, subject to Section 7.05(b), it shall have the right to take such action as it deems reasonably necessary to avoid, dispute, defend, appeal or make counterclaims pertaining to any such Third-Party Claim in the name and on behalf of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense of any Third-Party Claim with counsel selected by it subject to the Indemnifying Party’s right to control the defense thereof. The fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party, provided that if (A) there are legal defenses available to an Indemnified Party that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party or (B) there exists a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Party in each jurisdiction for which the Indemnified Party reasonably determines counsel is required. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to compromise or defend such Third-Party Claim, fails to diligently defend such Third-Party Claim or fails to promptly notify the Indemnified Party in writing of its election to defend as provided in this Agreement, the Indemnified Party may, subject to Section 7.05(b), pay, compromise, or defend such Third-Party Claim and seek indemnification for any and all Losses based upon, arising from or relating to such Third-Party Claim. The Parties shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any Third-Party Claim, including making available (subject to the provisions of Section 5.07) records relating to such Third-Party Claim and furnishing, without expense (other than reimbursement of actual out-of-pocket expenses) to the defending party, management employees of the non-defending party as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of such Third-Party Claim.

(b) Settlement of Third-Party Claims. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into settlement of any Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), except as provided in this Section 7.05(b). If a firm offer is made to settle a Third-Party Claim without leading to liability or the creation of a financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party and provides, in customary form, for the unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all liabilities and obligations in connection with such Third-Party Claim and the Indemnifying Party desires to accept and agree to such offer, the Indemnifying Party shall give written notice to that effect to the Indemnified Party. If

the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer within ten (10) Business Days after its receipt of such notice, the Indemnified Party may continue to contest or defend such Third-Party Claim and in such event, the maximum liability of the Indemnifying Party as to such Third-Party Claim shall not exceed the amount of such settlement offer. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer and also fails to assume defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may settle the Third-Party Claim upon the terms set forth in such firm offer to settle such Third-Party Claim. If the Indemnified Party has assumed the defense pursuant to Section 7.05(a), it shall not agree to any settlement without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(c) Direct Claims. Any claim by an Indemnified Party on account of a Loss which does not result from a Third-Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”) shall be asserted by the Indemnified Party giving the Indemnifying Party prompt written notice thereof. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure. To the extent the Direct Claim arises as a result of a breach of the representations set forth in Article III, Buyer shall also provide prompt notice of the Direct Claim to the Insurer as provided in the R&W Policy. Each notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Direct Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days after its receipt of such notice to respond in writing to such Direct Claim. During such thirty (30)-day period, the Indemnified Party shall allow the Indemnifying Party and its professional advisors to investigate the matter or circumstance alleged to give rise to the Direct Claim, and whether and to what extent any amount is payable in respect of the Direct Claim and the Indemnified Party shall assist the Indemnifying Party’s investigation by giving such information and assistance (including reasonable access to the Company’s premises and personnel and the right to examine and copy any accounts, documents or records) as the Indemnifying Party or any of its professional advisors may reasonably request. If the Indemnifying Party does not so respond within such thirty (30)-day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have rejected such claim, in which case the Indemnified Party shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to the Indemnified Party on the terms and subject to the provisions of this Agreement.

Section 7.06 Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments. All indemnification payments made under this Agreement shall be treated by the Parties as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.

Section 7.07 Exclusive Remedies. Subject to Section 9.12, the Parties acknowledge and agree that as between Sellers or the Company (prior to the Closing) on the one hand, and Buyer and the Company (after the Closing) on the other hand, each of their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims (other than claims arising from fraud on the part of one or more Sellers or the Company (prior to the Closing) on the one hand or Buyer and the Company (after the Closing) on the other hand, as applicable, in connection with the transactions

contemplated by this Agreement) for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article VII. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted under Law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement it may have against Sellers and the Company (prior to the Closing) on the one hand and Buyer and the Company (after the Closing) on the other hand, as applicable, and each of their respective Affiliates and Representatives arising under or based upon any Law, except pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article VII. Nothing in this Section 7.07 shall limit any Person’s right to seek and obtain any equitable relief to which any Person shall be entitled pursuant to Section 9.12 or to seek any remedy on account of fraud by any Party.

If, following the Signing Date, Shareholder Representative or any successor thereto shall die, become disabled, resign, dissolve, liquidate or otherwise be unable or unwilling to fulfill his, her or its responsibilities as agent of Sellers, whether under this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement, then Sellers shall, by written consent of Sellers holding a majority of the Shares and Options immediately prior to the Closing Date and promptly after such resignation, death, disability or other event, appoint a successor agent promptly thereafter; provided, however, that (i) with respect to this Agreement such appointment of a successor agent shall not be effective until the delivery to Buyer of a copy of such written consent, together with an acknowledgment for the benefit of Sellers and Buyer signed by the successor agent that such successor agent agrees to perform and be bound by all of the provisions of this Agreement applicable to Shareholder Representative, (ii) with respect to the Escrow Agreement during such time that the Escrow Agreement remains effective, such appointment of a successor agent shall be made in accordance with the Escrow Agreement and (iii) such appointment shall not affect the validity of any action by the then acting Shareholder Representative prior to Shareholder Representative’s resignation, death, disability or other event. Any such successor agent shall become the “Shareholder Representative” for all purposes of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement.

(d) Shareholder Representative Account; Reimbursement Expenses. Sellers acknowledge and agree that Sellers shall indemnify and hold harmless Shareholder Representative on a pro rata basis (each Seller’s pro rata portion being equal to such Seller’s Post-Closing Payment and Indemnification Allocation) for any and all actions taken by Shareholder Representative in carrying out Shareholder Representative’s obligations under this Agreement. Prior to the Closing, Shareholder Representative shall create an account (the “Shareholder Representative Account”) into which at the Closing, Buyer, on behalf of Sellers, shall place or shall cause to be placed, directly or indirectly, $125,000 out of the Purchase Price, in accordance with Section 2.05(a)(ii)(C). Shareholder Representative may use the funds contained in the Shareholder Representative Account to pay for, or to reimburse Shareholder Representative for any and all expenses incurred by Shareholder Representative following the Closing that are related to this Agreement. To the extent that funds contained in the Shareholder Representative Account are insufficient at any time to cover any amounts to be paid by or reimbursed to Shareholder Representative in accordance with this Agreement, Sellers, on a pro rata basis (each Seller’s pro rata portion being equal to such Seller’s Post-Closing Payment and Indemnification Allocation), shall reimburse all costs and expenses incurred by Shareholder Representative in carrying out his obligations and performing his duties under this Agreement (all fees incurred by Shareholder Representative pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, whether paid or reimbursed out of the Shareholder Representative Account or directly by Sellers, collectively, “Reimbursement Expenses”), such advance payment or reimbursement to occur within fifteen (15) days of delivery by Shareholder Representative of an advance request or evidence of (and request for reimbursement for) such costs and expenses. To the extent that funds contained in the Shareholder Representative Account are in excess of any required Reimbursement Expenses and are redistributed to Sellers, any such funds paid to Option Holders in respect of their Options shall be paid by Shareholder Representative to the Company for

distribution to the Option Holders through the Company’s payroll. Neither Buyer nor the Company shall have any liability to Shareholder Representative, for Reimbursement Expenses or otherwise, and each Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless Buyer and the Company from any claim by Shareholder Representative against either of them for Reimbursement Expenses or for any other alleged liability incurred by Shareholder Representative in connection with the performance of Shareholder Representative’s responsibilities hereunder.

(e) Attorney-in-Fact. The power of attorney granted pursuant to this Section 9.13 and all authority hereby conferred shall be irrevocable and shall not be terminated by any act of any Seller, by operation of Law, whether by such Seller’s death, disability, protective supervision or any other event or otherwise. This power of attorney is coupled with an interest. Each Seller hereby waives any and all defenses that may be available to contest, negate or disaffirm the action of Shareholder Representative taken in good faith under this Agreement.

(f) No Buyer Claims. In no event shall Buyer have any direct or indirect claims, for indemnification or otherwise, against Shareholder Representative on account of any action taken or omitted to be taken in such Person’s capacity as Shareholder Representative. For the sake of clarification and the avoidance of doubt, the immediately preceding sentence is not intended to release any claims Buyer might otherwise have on account of a breach by Sellers of their obligations under this Agreement either against the Escrow Amount in accordance with Article VII, or in accordance with the other sections and subsections of this Agreement.

(g) No Sellers Claims. Except in connection with Shareholder Representative’s gross negligence or willful misconduct in carrying outs his duties as such, in no event shall any Seller have any direct or indirect claims, for indemnification or otherwise, against Shareholder Representative on account of any action taken or omitted to be taken in such Person’s capacity as Shareholder Representative.

Section 9.14 Non-recourse. This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claim, action, suit or other legal proceeding based upon, arising out of, or related to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement, may only be brought against the Persons that are expressly named as Parties and then only with respect to the specific obligations set forth herein with respect to such Party. No past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, manager, member, partner, shareholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney or other Representative of any Party or of any Affiliate of any Party, or any of their successors or permitted assigns, shall have any liability for any obligations or liabilities of any Party under this Agreement or for any claim or action based on, in respect of or by reason of the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 9.15 Legal Representation.

(a) Each Party acknowledges that each of them has had the opportunity to review this Agreement with independent legal counsel. Xxxxx & Xxxxxx L.L.P. (the “Designated Firm”) has represented the Company in connection with the negotiation and preparation of this Agreement

(b) Buyer (on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, including, after the Closing, the Company) hereby irrevocably acknowledges and agrees that: (i) Sellers, Shareholder Representative and/or their respective Affiliates shall have the right to retain the Designated Firm, at their own costs, to represent their interests in any dispute arising under or in connection with this Agreement, any agreement, document or instrument entered into pursuant to this Agreement, or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (a “Dispute”); (ii) Buyer (on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, including, after the Closing, the Company) irrevocably waives, consents to and covenants not to assert any objection, based on conflict of interest or otherwise, to any representation of Sellers, Shareholder Representative or any of their respective Affiliates by the Designated Firm in any Dispute; (iii) all communications that are between any Seller, Shareholder Representative, the Company (prior to the Closing) or any of their respective Affiliates, directors, managers, officers, employees or Representatives, on the one hand, and the Designated Firm, on the other hand, (A) with respect to which Sellers have or may reasonably be expected to have an indemnification obligation hereunder or (B) made specifically in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and closing under, or any dispute arising in connection with, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (collectively, the “Protected Seller Communications”), shall be deemed to be privileged and confidential communications; (iv) all rights to such Protected Seller Communications, and the control of the confidentiality and privilege applicable thereto, shall be retained by Shareholder Representative; and (v) to the extent Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including the Company) should discover in its possession after the Closing any Protected Seller Communications, it shall take reasonable steps to preserve the confidentiality thereof and, if requested, promptly deliver the same to Shareholder Representative, keeping no copies, and shall not by reason thereof assert any loss of confidentiality or privilege protection. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a dispute arises between Buyer or its Affiliates (including the Company), on the one hand, and a third party other than any Seller or their Affiliates, on the other hand, Buyer and its Affiliates (including the Company) may assert the attorney-client privilege (and Sellers shall not waive such privilege) to prevent disclosure of Protected Seller Communications to such third party; provided, however, that neither Buyer nor any of its Affiliates (including the Company) may waive such privilege without the prior written consent of Shareholder Representative, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
