Notwithstanding the foregoing: (y) for business that is referred to the Companies by Buyer or its Affiliates, or from the Companies to Buyer or its Affiliates, the originating (i.e., referring) party shall be allocated 60% of the margin and the other party will be allocated 40% of the margin; and (z) in lieu of providing for their own legal and financial support services, following the later of (i) two (2) months after the Closing Date or (ii) the termination of the Consulting Agreement with Xxxxxxx Xxxx, the Companies shall use Buyer’s finance and legal departments for finance and legal support services and the Companies shall be

charged at such time but not before with $16,667 per month for such support services. No further approval from the Seller Representative shall be required for transactions described in clauses (y) and (z). Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall obligate a Company to accept referred business from Buyer or its Affiliates, or to refer business to Buyer or its Affiliates, if doing so would result in a negative margin or loss to a Company or the Companies.

Subject to the “First Target Year Cap” and to the “Aggregate Earn-Out Cap” (as such terms are hereinafter defined), the Earn-Out Payment for each of the Target Years shall be based on the Companies’ combined and consolidated EBITDA for such Target Year, as follows:

EBITDA Threshold	Earn-Out Payment
$2,400,000	$1,500,000
$2,200,000	$1,170,000
$2,000,000	$900,000
< $2,000,000	$0

Each Earn-Out Payment shall be increased proportionally for the amount that the actual EBITDA exceeds the applicable EBITDA Threshold. For example, if the actual combined and consolidated EBITDA of the Companies for the first Target Year is $2,050,000 (i.e., an amount between the EBITDA Thresholds of $2,000,000 and $2,200,000, and 25% of the spread between the two (2) EBITDA Thresholds), then the Earn-Out Payment shall be $967,500 (i.e., $900,000, plus 25% of the spread between $900,000 and $1,170,000). The maximum Earn-Out Payment for first Target Year is $1,500,000 (the “First Target Year Cap”), and the aggregate maximum Earn-Out Payments for all of the Target Years is $3,000,000 (the “Aggregate Earn-Out Cap” together with the First Target Year Cap, the “Caps”). Subject to the Aggregate Earn-Out Cap, the amount which any Earn-Out Payment for the first Target Year is in excess of the First Target Year Cap shall be added to and paid with the Earn-Out Payment, if any, for the second Target Year. In addition, subject to the Caps, each Target Year Earn-Out Payment shall include fifty cents ($0.50) of each dollar ($1.00) of actual EBITDA over $2,400,000. Buyer covenants and agrees to maintain correct and complete books and records for the determination of the Earn-Out Payments and it shall: (i) operate the Companies on a stand-alone basis and on a basis substantially similar to the manner in which they are presently operated; (ii) not allow any actions which have the sole purpose or effect of depressing or deferring earnings, or increasing or accelerating expenses, of the Companies; (iii) without the prior written consent of the Seller Representative (which may be in the form of email correspondence), not hire additional employees (except to replace departing employees at the same or lower salary level); (iv) not sell, assign or transfer the assets or capital stock of the Companies during the Target Years, or after the Target Years, unless all Earn-Out Payments owed to the Sellers are made, except: (aa) on terms as may be approved in writing by the Seller Representative (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld), and (bb) Buyer shall not be restricted from merging the two (2) Companies; (iv) keep the assets of the Companies and the Companies properly insured at levels to which they are currently insured; and (v) agree with the Seller Representative on appropriate adjustments to the calculation of the Earn-Out Payments prior to any merger, consolidation or other transaction or event that would materially adversely affect calculation of the Earn-Out Payments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Sellers Representative approves in advance in writing any action or inaction by the Companies, such action or inaction shall be deemed to comply with Buyer’s covenants under this Section 2.2(b).

(c)Seller Contest Rights. Sellers shall have thirty (30) days to review the preliminary Earn-Out Payment calculations delivered to the Seller Representative pursuant to Section 2.2(b). If the Seller Representative delivers written notice of a dispute to Buyer within such 30-day period, Buyer and the Seller Representative shall resolve the dispute in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.3(c), mutatis mutandis. If the Seller Representative has not given written notice of a dispute within such 30-day review period, or the Seller Representative delivers written notice accepting the calculation of EBITDA and the related Earn-Out Payment, the related Earn-Out Payment shall be deemed to have been accepted and agreed to by Sellers in the form in which it was delivered to the Seller Representative and shall be final and binding upon each of the Parties. The date upon which the Earn-Out Payment, if any, is finally determined in accordance with this Agreement is referred to herein as the “Settlement Date”. Subject to the First Target Year Cap and the Aggregated Earn-Out Cap, the Earn-Out Payment for each of the applicable Target Years, shall be paid to the Seller Representative, as agent for Sellers, (who shall distribute the same to the Sellers) by wire transfer, pursuant to such instructions as may be provided to Buyer by the Seller Representative no later than ten (10) business days following the Settlement Date. Sellers acknowledge their appointment of the Seller Representative as their agent for the purposes described in this Agreement, including without limitation, acceptance of the Earn-Out Payments.

(d)Sales and Use Taxes. Sellers shall bear and pay any sales, use, stamp, and other similar transfer taxes arising out of the transfer of the Shares to Buyer (collectively, the “Transfer Taxes”). To the extent permitted by law, Buyer shall cooperate fully with Sellers in minimizing the Transfer Taxes. To the extent a Governmental Body provides notice to Buyer of an audit of the Transfer Taxes, Buyer shall promptly notify Sellers and Sellers shall assume responsibility for such audit and shall bear and pay when due any additional Transfer Taxes (plus interest and penalties) ultimately assessed with respect to the Acquisition.

2.3.Purchase Price Adjustment

. The Purchase Price will be subject to adjustment in accordance with this Section 2.3 and Section 10.12 herein.

(a)Net Working Capital Adjustment. Attached hereto as Exhibit D is a certificate setting forth the estimated Net Working Capital Amount (as defined below) as of the Closing Date (such calculation is referred to herein as the “Closing Purchase Price Adjustment Calculation”). The Closing Purchase Price Adjustment Calculation was prepared by the Parties in good faith and Exhibit D specifies the extent to which the Net Working Capital Amount is greater or less than the Target Net Working Capital. The Closing Date Payment shall be increased or decreased accordingly on a dollar-for-dollar basis for the amount of the difference between the Net Working Capital Amount as set forth on Exhibit D and the Target Net Working Capital.

As used herein, “Net Working Capital Amount” means (i) the consolidated current assets of the Companies, minus (ii) the consolidated current liabilities of the Companies, all as reflected on a balance sheet of the Companies prepared as of the Closing, determined in conformity with GAAP, provided, however, that (A) “current assets” shall be deemed to include (x) the proceeds from option or warrant exercises effected prior to the Closing Date and (y) loads

delivered but not invoiced; (B) “current assets” shall not include accounts receivable from any customer where there are receivables in excess of 120 days beyond the invoice due date (“Delinquent AR”), or any inter-company receivables or receivables from the Sellers or Affiliates of the Sellers, or amounts owed by Sellers or their Affiliates (including Bedrock) on account of loans to Sellers or such Affiliates; (C) “current liabilities” shall be deemed to include (x) the aggregate amount of all change of control payments to Employees and other Employee benefits, severance or Tax gross up obligations triggered by the Acquisition, including the Companies’ employer’s share of any payroll, social security unemployment or similar Taxes attributable thereto; (y) all transaction expenses of the Companies in connection with this Agreement, except for the Companies’ broker, legal and accounting fees and expenses, which are for the account of Sellers and will be paid by Sellers at the Closing pursuant to Section 2.4(b)(ii) and (z) loads delivered not settled for the year 2015 and 2016; (D) “current liabilities” shall not include loads delivered not settled for any year prior to 2015; and (E) the GAAP financial statements shall be adjusted as set forth on Exhibit 1.1 hereto, to reflect mutually-agreed deviations from GAAP for historical accounting practices of the Companies.

(b)Post-Closing Purchase Price Adjustment. The Purchase Price shall also be subject to adjustment, if any, after the Closing Date as specified in this Section 2.3(b). As soon as practicable, but in any event within sixty (60) calendar days following the Closing Date, Buyer shall deliver to the Seller Representative (i) a consolidated unaudited balance sheet for the Companies (the “Closing Balance Sheet”) and Net Working Capital Amount calculation, each as of the Closing Date; (ii) a calculation specifying the extent to which such actual Net Working Capital Amount is greater or less than the estimated Net Working Capital Amount set forth on Exhibit D; and (iii) actual Delinquent AR as of the Closing Date (such deliverable is referred to herein as the “Post-Closing NWC Notice”). Subject to the resolution of any disputes pursuant to Section 2.3(c), after the date of receipt by the Seller Representative of the Post-Closing NWC Notice: (y) if the Net Working Capital Amount reflected on the Closing Balance Sheet as set forth in the Post-Closing NWC Notice exceeds the estimated Net Working Capital Amount reflected on Exhibit D, then the Purchase Price shall be increased in an amount equal to such excess and no later than thirty (30) calendar days thereafter, Buyer will pay to Sellers the amount of such increase; and (z) if the Net Working Capital Amount reflected on the Closing Balance Sheet as set forth in the Post-Closing NWC Notice is less than the estimated Net Working Capital Amount set forth in Exhibit D, the Seller Representative and Buyer shall give an Officer’s Certificate to the Escrow Agent to release from the Escrow Fund, no later than thirty (30) calendar days thereafter (as a downward adjustment to the Purchase Price), an amount equal to the deficit. Any payment required to be made pursuant to this Section 2.3(b) shall bear no interest if paid on or before the due date, and will bear interest at six percent (6%) per annum beginning thirty (30) days after the due date.

(c)Disputes Regarding Net Working Capital Adjustment. Sellers (through the Seller Representative) may dispute any amounts reflected on the Closing Balance Sheet and Post-Closing NWC Notice to the extent that the net effect of such disputed amounts in the aggregate would be to increase the Net Working Capital Amount reflected on the Closing Balance Sheet or to decrease the Delinquent AR; provided, however, that the Seller Representative shall have notified Buyer in writing of each disputed item, specifying the amount thereof in dispute and setting forth, in reasonable detail, the basis for such dispute, within thirty (30) days of the Seller Representative’s receipt of the Post-Closing NWC Notice. In the event of

such a dispute, Buyer and Seller Representative shall attempt in good faith to reconcile their differences. If the Buyer and Seller Representative are unable to reach a resolution within fifteen (15) days after receipt by Buyer of the Seller Representative’s written notice of dispute, Buyer and the Seller Representative shall submit the items remaining in dispute for resolution to Xxxx Xxxxx LLP or such other independent accounting firm as may be mutually acceptable to the Seller Representative and Buyer (the “Independent Accounting Firm”), which shall, within thirty (30) days of such submission, determine and report to the Seller Representative and Buyer upon such remaining disputed items, and such report shall be final, binding and conclusive on the Sellers and Buyer. The fees and disbursements of the Independent Accounting Firm shall be allocated equally between Buyer and Sellers (i.e., one-half to Buyer and one-half to Sellers). At such time as funds held in escrow would otherwise be released, an amount equal to any disputed amount under this Section 2.3(c) (and only such amount) shall not be released to Sellers from the Escrow Account until the disputes over such amount have been resolved pursuant to this Section 2.3(c).

During the period of any dispute referred to in this Section 2.3(c), Buyer and the Companies shall provide the Seller Representative and Sellers’ accountants (the “Sellers’ Accountants”) full access to the books, records and facilities of each Company and the Buyer (if applicable) and shall otherwise cooperate fully with the Seller Representative and the Sellers’ Accountants, in each case, to the extent reasonably required by the Seller Representative and the Sellers’ Accountants in order to investigate the basis for any such dispute; provided, however, that any such investigation shall be conducted during regular business hours and in a manner so as not to interfere unreasonably with the operation of either Company’s business.

(ii)Seller “Several” Indemnities. Each Seller shall, severally and not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless Buyer and its Representatives and Affiliates (collectively, the “Buyer Indemnified Persons”) from and against all Indemnified Losses arising out of, or resulting from, or incurred with respect to,

(A)any breach or inaccuracy of a representation or warranty of such Seller or any Company contained in this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement or any certificate or instrument delivered pursuant to this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreements;

(iv)Indemnified Losses Subject to Non-Fundamental Cap. Except as provided by Section 9.2(a)(iii), each Seller shall, severally and not jointly, indemnify the Buyer Indemnified Parties for one-third (1/3) of the aggregate amount of Indemnified Losses, and Sellers’ aggregate liability for any claims for Losses arising out of, or resulting from, or incurred with respect to, the breaches or inaccuracies described in Section 9.2(a)(ii)(A) or (B) shall be limited to $750,000 (the “Non-Fundamental Cap”).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, except to the extent covered by the Escrow Fund and as provided in Section 9.2(a)(iii), no Seller shall indemnify the Buyer Indemnified Parties hereunder (or be individually liable for Indemnified Losses) for any breach or inaccuracy of a representation or warranty of any other Seller, or any failure of another Seller to perform or comply with any covenant of any other Seller, contained in a Non-Compete Agreement, Employment Agreement or Consulting Agreement to which he is not a party.

(v)Uncapped Indemnified Losses.

(b)Escrow Period; Distribution upon Termination of Escrow Period. Subject to the following requirements, the Escrow Fund shall remain in existence until one year following the Closing Date (the “Escrow Period”). At the expiration of the Escrow Period a portion of the Escrow Fund shall be released from Escrow to the Seller Representative (as agent for Sellers) or as directed in writing by the Seller Representative in an amount equal to the Escrow Fund less an amount equal to the sum of (i) all amounts theretofore distributed out of the Escrow Fund to Buyer and the other Buyer Indemnified Persons pursuant to this Article IX and (ii) an amount equal to such portion of the Escrow Fund which, in the reasonable, good faith judgment of Buyer, subject to the reasonable objection of the Seller Representative and the subsequent resolution of the matter in the manner provided in this Section 9.2, is necessary to satisfy any unsatisfied claims specified in any Officer’s Certificate theretofore delivered to the Escrow Agent on or prior to the end of the Escrow Period, which amount shall remain in the Escrow Fund (and the Escrow Fund shall remain in existence) until such claims have been resolved. As soon as all such claims have been resolved (such resolution to be evidenced by the written agreement of Buyer and the Seller Representative or as determined by the arbitrator or arbitrators as provided for in this Article IX), the Escrow Agent shall deliver to the Seller Representative (as agent for Sellers) or as directed in writing by the Seller Representative the remaining portion of the Escrow Fund not required to satisfy such claims.

(c)Protection of Escrow Fund. The Escrow Agent shall hold and safeguard the Escrow Fund during the Escrow Period and shall treat Buyer as the owner of the Escrow Fund for all Tax purposes.

Upon receipt by the Escrow Agent at any time on or before the last day of the Escrow Period of one or more certificates signed by any officer of Buyer (each, an “Officer’s Certificate”): (A) stating that Buyer or another Buyer Indemnified Person has incurred and paid or properly accrued Losses and, when applicable, that the total of all Losses, including Losses subject to prior Officer’s Certificates, exceeds the Basket Amount, (B) specifying in reasonable detail the individual items of Losses included in the amount so stated, the date on which each such item was incurred and paid or properly accrued, or the basis for such anticipated Liability, and the nature of the misrepresentation, breach of warranty or claim to which such item is related, and (C) indicating the amount of cash to be disbursed to Buyer out of the Escrow Fund with respect to such Losses, the Escrow Agent shall, subject to the provisions of Section 9.2(e) and (f) hereof, deliver to Buyer out of the Escrow Fund, as promptly as practicable, such amounts held in the Escrow Fund equal to such Losses.

(e)Objections to Claims. At the time of delivery of any Officer’s Certificate to the Escrow Agent, a duplicate copy of such Officer’s Certificate shall be delivered to the Seller Representative, and for a period of thirty (30) days after such delivery the Escrow Agent shall make no delivery to Buyer of any cash from the Escrow Fund specified in such Officer’s Certificate unless the Escrow Agent shall have received written authorization from the Seller Representative to make such delivery. After the expiration of such thirty (30) day period, the Escrow Agent shall make delivery of an amount from the Escrow Fund in accordance with such Officer’s Certificate, provided that no such payment or delivery shall be made if the Seller Representative shall object in a written statement to the claim made in the Officer’s Certificate, and such statement shall have been delivered to the Escrow Agent and Buyer prior to the expiration of such thirty (30) day period.

(f)Resolution of Conflicts; Arbitration.

(i)In case the Seller Representative shall so object in writing to any claim or claims made in any Officer’s Certificate within thirty (30) days after delivery of such Officer’s Certificate, the Seller Representative and Buyer shall attempt in good faith to agree upon the rights of the respective Parties with respect to each of such claims. If Seller Representative and Buyer should so agree, a memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by both Parties and shall be furnished to the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely on any such memorandum and distribute amounts from the Escrow Fund in accordance with the terms thereof.

(ii)If no such agreement can be reached after good faith negotiation for a period of ten (10) days following the submission of an objection by the Seller Representative, either Buyer or the Seller Representative may demand arbitration of the matter; and in either such event the matter shall be settled by one (1) independent arbitrator mutually agreeable to Buyer and the Seller Representative. In the event that within forty-five (45) days after submission of any dispute to arbitration, Buyer and the Seller Representative cannot mutually agree on one arbitrator, Buyer and the Seller Representative shall each select one (1)

arbitrator, and the two (2) arbitrators so selected shall select a third arbitrator. The arbitrator or arbitrators, as the case may be, shall set a limited time period not to exceed forty-five (45) days and establish procedures designed to limit the cost and time for discovery while allowing the Parties an opportunity, adequate in the sole judgment of the arbitrator or majority of the three (3) arbitrators, as the case may be, to discover relevant information from the opposing Parties about the subject matter of the dispute. The arbitrator or a majority of the three (3) arbitrators, as the case may be, shall rule upon motions to compel or limit discovery and shall have the authority to impose sanctions, including attorneys’ fees and costs, to the same extent as a competent court of law or equity, should the arbitrators or a majority of the three (3) arbitrators, as the case may be, determine that discovery was sought without substantial justification or that discovery was refused or objected to without substantial justification. The decision of the arbitrator or a majority of the three (3) arbitrators, as the case may be, as to the validity and amount of any claim in such Officer’s Certificate shall be binding and conclusive upon the Parties to this Agreement and all Buyer Indemnified Persons and Seller Indemnified Parties, and notwithstanding anything in Section 9.2(f) hereof, the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to act in accordance with such decision and make or withhold payments out of the Escrow Fund in accordance therewith. Such decision shall be written and shall be supported by written findings of fact and conclusions which shall set forth the award, judgment, decree or order awarded by the arbitrator(s). In the event that the Escrow Agent has not received evidence of resolution under Section 9.2(f)(i) or this Section 9.2(f)(ii), the Escrow Agent shall continue to hold the Escrow Fund in accordance herewith.

(iii)Judgment upon any award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. Any such arbitration shall be held in San Francisco, California, under the Commercial Rules then in effect of the American Arbitration Association. Each Party to any arbitration pursuant to this Section 9.2(f) shall pay its or his own expenses; the fees of each arbitrator and the administrative fee of the American Arbitration Association shall be borne equally by Buyer, on the one hand, and Sellers, on the other. Neither the expenses that Sellers incur in the course of any arbitration pursuant to this Section 9.2(f) nor Sellers’ portion of the fees of the arbitrators or the administrative fees for the American Arbitration Association shall be deducted from any amounts held in the Escrow Fund.

(iv)Any claim by an Indemnified Person on account of a Loss which does not result from a third-party claim (i.e., a direct claim) shall be asserted by the Indemnified Person and resolved in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 9.2(e) and (f), including after the end of the Escrow Period and release of the Escrow Fund and for claims asserted by Seller Indemnified Persons. In the event the Escrow Period has ended at the time of such claim, the Parties shall follow the procedures set forth in Section 9.2(e) and (f) for resolution of the claim and just omit notice or reference to the Escrow Agent.

(g)Third-Party Claims against Buyer Indemnified Parties. In the event that Buyer becomes aware of a third-party claim which results in a demand against the Escrow Fund, Buyer shall immediately notify the Seller Representative of such claim. Buyer shall have the sole right to conduct the defense of any such claim and the right in its sole discretion to settle any such claim; provided, however, that except with the prior written consent of the Seller Representative, no settlement of any such claim with third-party claimants shall alone be determinative of the amount of any claim against the Escrow Fund and the Seller Representative

must consent in writing (with such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to any settlement which includes consideration other than monetary consideration that would bind Sellers; provided, further, except with the consent of the Seller Representative, the Sellers shall not be obligated to indemnify for Indemnified Losses in excess of the third-party claimant’s claims and the Buyer Indemnified Parties’ reasonable costs of defense. In the event that the Seller Representative has consented to any such settlement, the Sellers shall have no power or authority to object under any provision of this Article IX to the amount of any claim by any Buyer Indemnified Person against the Escrow Fund with respect to such settlement to the extent that such amount is consistent with the terms of such settlement.

(h)Escrow Agent’s Duties.

(i)The Escrow Agent’s duties are purely ministerial in nature, and the Escrow Agent shall be obligated only for the performance of such duties as are specifically set forth in Article IX of this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement and any additional written escrow instructions which the Escrow Agent may receive after the date of this Agreement which are signed by both an officer of Buyer and the Seller Representative, and may rely and shall be protected in relying or refraining from acting on any instrument reasonably believed to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person(s).

In addition, the Escrow Agent may consult with legal counsel in connection with Escrow Agent’s duties under this Agreement and shall be fully protected in any action taken, suffered, or omitted by it in accordance with the advice of counsel.

The Escrow Agent shall have the right to perform any of its duties hereunder through agents, custodians or nominees (who are independent of the Parties), and the Escrow Agent shall not be liable or responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any such agent, custodian or nominee absent gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith on the part of the Escrow Agent in the selection and continued employment thereof.

(vi)If any controversy arises between the Parties to this Agreement, or with any other Person, concerning the subject matter of this Agreement, its terms or conditions, the Escrow Agent will not be required to determine the controversy or to take any action regarding it. The Escrow Agent may hold all documents and funds and may wait for settlement of any such controversy by final appropriate legal proceedings. In such event, the Escrow Agent will not be liable for damages. Furthermore, the Escrow Agent may at its option, file an action of interpleader requiring the Parties to answer and litigate any claims and rights among themselves. The Escrow Agent is authorized to deposit with the clerk of the court all documents and funds held in escrow, except all cost, expenses, charges and reasonable attorney fees incurred by the Escrow Agent through such time and which the parties jointly and severally agree to pay. To the extent that Sellers fail to pay their portion of expenses, Buyer shall be entitled to recover such portion out of the Escrow Fund or offset the expense against deferred payments of the Purchase Price. Upon initiating such action, the Escrow Agent shall be fully released and discharged of and from all obligations and Liability imposed by the terms of this Agreement.

(vii)The Parties and their respective successors and assigns agree jointly and severally to indemnify and hold Escrow Agent harmless against any and all losses, claims, costs, fines, settlement judgments, penalties, demands, damages, Liabilities, and expenses, including reasonable costs of investigation, counsel fees, including allocated costs of in-house counsel and disbursements that may be imposed on Escrow Agent or incurred by Escrow Agent in connection with the execution of this Agreement or the performance of its duties under this Agreement, including but not limited to any litigation arising from this Agreement or involving its subject matter other than arising out of its negligence or willful misconduct.

(viii)The Escrow Agent may resign at any time upon giving at least thirty (30) days written notice to the Parties; provided, however, that no such resignation shall become effective until the appointment of a successor escrow agent which shall be accomplished as follows: the Parties shall use their best efforts to mutually agree on a successor escrow agent within thirty (30) days after receiving such notice. If the Parties fail to agree upon a successor escrow agent within such time, the Escrow Agent shall have the right to appoint a successor escrow agent. The successor escrow agent shall execute and deliver an instrument accepting such appointment and it shall, without further acts, be vested with all the estates, properties, rights, powers, and duties of the predecessor escrow agent as if originally named as escrow

agent. Upon appointment of a successor escrow agent, the Escrow Agent shall be discharged from any further duties and Liability under this Agreement. Alternatively, if a successor escrow agent is not appointed within the above time frames, then the Escrow Agent may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for appointment of a successor escrow agent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, the Escrow Agent or any successor escrow agent shall continue to act as escrow agent hereunder and under the Escrow Agreement until a successor is appointed and qualified to act as escrow agent.

(ix)In no event shall the Escrow Agent be liable for special, indirect, incidental, punitive or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits) even if the Escrow Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

(x)Any Person into which the Escrow Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Escrow Agent in its individual capacity shall be a party, or any Person to which substantially all the business of the Escrow Agent may be transferred, shall be the Escrow Agent under this Agreement without further act.

9.3.Indemnification by Buyer

. Buyer shall indemnify and hold harmless Sellers and their respective Representatives and Affiliates (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Persons”) from and against all Losses (other than consequential, special, incidental and indirect damages) arising out of, or resulting from, or incurred with respect to, (A) any breach or inaccuracy of a representation or warranty of Buyer contained in this Agreement; (B) any breach or inaccuracy of a representation or warranty of Buyer in any Ancillary Agreement to which it is a party; (C) any failure by Buyer to perform or comply with any covenant contained in this Agreement; and (D) any failure by Buyer to perform or comply with any covenant contained in any Ancillary Agreement to which it is a party. Nothing in this Agreement shall limit the Liability of Buyer for any Losses arising out of fraud or willful breach of a representation or warranty, or breach of a Fundamental Representation of Buyer.

9.4.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 Legal Requirements.

9.5.Exclusive Remedies

. Except as provided in the Vendor Payoff and Release Letter among the Companies, Sellers and BCMS, executed in connection herewith, the Parties acknowledge and agree that their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims (other than claims arising from fraud on the part of a Party 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 IX. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Party

hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted under Legal Requirements, 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 he or it may have against the other Parties and their Affiliates and each of their respective Representatives arising under or based upon any Legal Requirement, except pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article IX. Nothing in this Section shall limit any Person's right to seek any remedy on account of fraud by any Party.

10.10.Governing Law

10.11.Severability

. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction.

10.12.Expenses

. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, each Party will bear his or its own costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby,

including but not limited to (a) all third party legal, accounting, financial advisory, consulting, finders or other fees and expenses and (b) any payments made under or with respect to any contracts of the Companies or Sellers (i) in connection with any change in control obligations, (ii) arising under any required consents, waivers or approvals in connection with the Acquisition and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or (iii) in connection with any agreed upon modification or early termination of such contracts. If the Acquisition is consummated, then any such costs set forth in (a) and (b) above incurred or paid by Companies shall, at the Buyer’s option, either be deducted from the Purchase Price (including any deferred portion of the Purchase Price) or paid out of the Escrow Fund and shall not be subject to the Basket Amount.

10.13.Construction

. The Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement.

. In the event of any litigation between the parties hereto related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, the prevailing party shall be entitled to be reimbursed by the losing party for its reasonable out of pocket costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees.

10.16.Arbitration

. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.2(c) and Section 2.3(c) (which shall be determined by the Independent Accounting Firm), any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, its enforcement or interpretation, or because of an alleged breach, default, or misrepresentation in connection with any of its provisions, or arising out of or relating in any way to the Acquisition shall be settled by final and binding arbitration in San Francisco, California (or such other place as may be agreed to by the Parties) before a single independent arbitrator, selected in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) with the applicable of Delaware Legal Requirements. The arbitrators shall be permitted to retain independent experts (e.g., accountants) as necessary and in accordance with the rules of AAA. Any award pursuant to such arbitration shall be accompanied by a written opinion of the arbitrators giving the reasons for the award, including finding of facts and conclusions of law. The award rendered by the arbitrator shall be conclusive and binding upon the Parties, and judgment upon the award may be entered in any court of competent

jurisdiction or application may be made to such court for a judicial acceptance of the award and an order of enforcement. Each Party shall pay his or its own expenses of arbitration and the expenses of the arbitrator (including his or her compensation) shall be borne equally by the Parties (one-half by Buyer and one-half by Sellers), except that if any matter of dispute raised by a Party or any defense or objection thereto was unreasonable or made in bad faith, the arbitrator may assess, as part of the award, all or any part of the arbitration expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) of the other party and the arbitration fees against the Party raising such unreasonable matter of dispute or defense or objection thereto. Nothing herein set forth shall prevent the Seller Representative and Buyer from settling any dispute by mutual agreement at any time.

If any Party files, and is allowed by the courts to prosecute, a court action against any other Party, the plaintiff in such action agrees not to request, and hereby waives such Party's right to a trial by jury. In construing this Agreement and disputes arising hereunder, the arbitrator shall apply the law of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflicts of laws principles. There shall be a stenographic transcription of the arbitration proceedings, the costs thereof to be shared equally by the Parties. Upon an application to a court of competent jurisdiction with respect to an award rendered by the arbitrator, any court having jurisdiction may enter judgment upon any award either by confirming the award, or by vacating, modifying or correcting the award. The court shall vacate, modify or correct any award: (A) where the arbitrator’s findings of fact are not supported by substantial evidence; or (B) where the arbitrator’s conclusions of law are erroneous. This arbitration clause, and its enforcement, shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware. THE PARTIES UNDERSTAND THAT, ABSENT THIS AGREEMENT, THEY WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO XXX EACH OTHER IN COURT, AND THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL, BUT, BY THIS AGREEMENT, GIVE UP THAT RIGHT AND AGREE TO RESOLVE ANY AND ALL GRIEVANCES (OTHER THAN WITH RESPECT TO Section 2.2(c) and Section 2.3(c)), BY ARBITRATION.
