(b)Each Unit (subject to the last sentence of Section 2.1) that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than the Cancelled Units, the Redeemed Units and Units held by the Blocker, shall automatically be converted into the right for the Unitholder thereof to receive an amount calculated in respect of such Unit in accordance with the Payment Schedule, Section 2.10, Section 2.11(f) (in the case of Class O Units and Class M Units, as adjusted in accordance with Section 2.13), Section 2.15 (if any) and Section 6.12(f) (if any); provided, however, that for the avoidance of doubt, the Blocker Members shall not have the right to receive consideration payable under Section 2.10, Section 2.15 and Section 6.12(f). At such time, all such Units shall cease to be outstanding and shall be automatically cancelled and shall cease to exist, and each holder of Units immediately prior to the Effective Time shall thereafter cease to have any rights with respect to such Units, except, in all cases, the right to receive the amounts described in this Section 2.7, without interest.

(c)Each Merger Sub Unit that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically be converted into, and be exchanged for one (1) unit of the Surviving Entity such that, immediately following the Effective Time, Parent will hold indirectly all of the ownership interests of the Surviving Entity (other than the interests of the Surviving Entity held by Blocker).

(d)Each Unit held by the Blocker shall remain outstanding following the Merger, and no cash, stock or other consideration shall be delivered or deliverable in exchange therefor.

(e)Each Redeemed Unit (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall be held by the Company immediately following the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Redemption Agreement but prior to the Effective Time), (i) shall remain outstanding following the Merger, but shall not entitle the Company to any cash, stock or other consideration in exchange therefor, and (ii) shall entitle the Redeemed Holders solely to their respective portions of (A) the Earn-Out Payments, if any, and (B) the amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.13(a), Section 2.13(b) and Section 6.11(b), if any, in each case, attributable to the Redeemed Units as if such Redeemed Holder continued to hold its Redeemed Units on the applicable date of determination, in each case, as set forth in the Payment Schedule.

2.8.Purchase Price. The aggregate purchase price to be paid by Parent to or for the account of (i) Blocker Seller, in connection with the Blocker Sale, and (ii) Unitholders, in connection with

88758860_15

the Merger on the Closing Date shall be an aggregate amount in cash equal to (a) the Enterprise Value, plus (b) Estimated Cash, minus (c) Estimated Closing Date Indebtedness, minus (d) Estimated Transaction Expenses, minus (e) the Adjustment Escrow Amount, minus (f) the PPP Escrow Amount, minus (g) the Securityholders’ Representative Expense Amount, minus (h) the amount, if any, by which the Target Net Working Capital exceeds the Net Working Capital, plus (i) the amount, if any, by which the Net Working Capital exceeds the Target Net Working Capital, minus (j) the Closing Stock Value (after giving effect to the foregoing, the “Estimated Purchase Price”). The Estimated Purchase Price shall be payable at Closing in accordance with Section 2.11 and the Payment Schedule, subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 2.13.

2.9.Pre-Closing Purchase Price Adjustment. Not less than three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, an authorized officer of the Company shall provide to Parent a written statement containing (i) a balance sheet of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the Effective Time (the “Estimated Closing Balance Sheet”) and, based thereon, the Company’s good faith estimate of (A) the Cash (the “Estimated Cash”), (B) the Closing Date Indebtedness (the “Estimated Closing Date Indebtedness”), (C) Net Working Capital (the “Estimated Net Working Capital”), and (D) the Transaction Expenses as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Estimated Transaction Expenses”), and (ii) after taking into account the determinations set forth in clause (i) hereof, the calculation of the Estimated Purchase Price. In preparing the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet and the calculation of the Estimated Purchase Price, all terms of an accounting or financial nature shall (a) be based exclusively on the facts and circumstances as they existed as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and shall exclude the effects of the Transactions, (b) be construed in accordance with GAAP (as modified by the Historical Accounting Practices), applied consistently with the Financial Statements, as modified by (c) the accounting policies and procedures and methodology set forth or reflected in Annex II (collectively, the “Policies and Procedures”); provided that, in the event of a conflict between clause (b) and clause (c), the Policies and Procedures shall control.

Parent shall provide Securityholders’ Representative with reasonable supporting detail with respect to the calculation of each of the components of the Final Purchase Price. Parent and the Securityholders’ Representative shall provide each other reasonable access to the appropriate personnel of the other parties and all supporting financial statements, worksheets and other documentation used to determine the calculation of each of the components of the Final Purchase Price, and such schedules and data with respect to the determination of such amounts as each party and its representatives reasonably request for the purposes of their review of the Final Calculations.

88758860_15

work papers as Securityholders’ Representative may reasonably request to enable Securityholders’ Representative and its representatives to evaluate the Final Closing Balance Sheet and the Final Calculations, provided that such access does not unreasonably interfere with the day-to-day operations of Parent’s business. If Securityholders’ Representative (i) delivers an Acknowledgement within the 30-Day Period or (ii) fails to deliver an Acknowledgement or an Adjustment Report to Parent within the 30-Day Period, Securityholders’ Representative shall be deemed to have accepted and agreed to the Final Closing Balance Sheet and the Final Calculations as delivered pursuant to Section 2.12(a), and such Final Closing Balance Sheet and Final Calculations shall be final and binding upon all parties and the Final Purchase Price shall be as set forth therein. In the event that Securityholders’ Representative timely delivers an Adjustment Report to Parent, then Parent and Securityholders’ Representative will use all commercially reasonable efforts to resolve the disputed matter(s) within the thirty (30)-day period following the delivery of the Adjustment Report. If Securityholders’ Representative and Parent fail to agree on Securityholders’ Representative’s proposed adjustments contained in the Adjustment Report within thirty (30) days after Parent receives the Adjustment Report, then Parent and Securityholders’ Representative shall jointly submit the disputed matter(s) to RSM US LLP (provided, that if such Person is unable or unwilling to serve in such capacity, Parent and Securityholders’ Representative shall work in good faith to jointly select an alternative nationally recognized independent accounting) (the “Independent Auditor”). The Independent Auditor’s function will be to resolve each element of the dispute that has not been resolved by Parent and Securityholders’ Representative as an accounting expert and not as an arbitrator. The Independent Auditor shall resolve any such dispute in accordance with the Policies and Procedures and the applicable definitions set forth herein (i.e., not on the basis of an independent review). The Independent Auditor shall not have any power or authority to alter, modify, add to, or subtract from any term or provision of this Agreement. Parent and Securityholders’ Representative will furnish, or cause to be furnished, to the Independent Auditor such work papers, documentation and other reports and information relating to the disputed matter(s) as the Independent Auditor may request or as either Securityholders’ Representative or Parent believes relevant and each party shall be afforded the opportunity to discuss the disputed matter with the Independent Auditor (provided that no ex parte communications shall be permitted). The Independent Auditor shall make a final written determination of the disputed matter(s) (the “Auditor’s Determination”) in reliance upon supporting documentation provided to the Independent Auditor by Securityholders’ Representative and Parent within twenty (20) Business Days of submission of the disputed matter(s) to the Independent Auditor. In resolving any disputed item, the Independent Auditor may not revise any element of the Final Closing Balance Sheet and Final Calculations that is not contested by the parties. The Auditor’s Determination shall be furnished to Securityholders’ Representative and Parent as soon as practicable after the disputed items(s) have been referred to the Independent Auditor and, absent manifest error or Fraud and subject to the following sentence, shall be nonappealable and incontestable by each party and each of their respective Affiliates and successors and not subject to collateral attack for any reason. With respect to each disputed amount, the Auditor’s Determination must be an amount between or equal to one or the other of Securityholders’ Representative’s position as set forth in the Adjustment Report and Parent’s position as set forth in the Final Closing Balance Sheet and the Final Calculations. The fees, costs and expenses of the Independent Auditor and the American Arbitration Association incurred in resolving the disputed matter(s) pursuant to this Section 2.12(b) shall be borne by Parent, on the one hand, and Securityholders’ Representative, on the other hand, in inverse proportion to the respective percentages of the dollar value of disputed items determined in favor of Parent, on the one hand, and Securityholders’ Representative, on the other hand, as determined by the Independent Auditor and set forth in the Auditor’s Determination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of Parent and Securityholders’ Representative will be responsible for paying the fees, costs and expenses of their respective attorneys, accountants and other representatives in connection with any such dispute.

(a)No later than five (5) Business Days after the Settlement Date, the following payment (if any) shall be made, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account (or accounts) specified in writing by Parent or Securityholders’ Representative, as applicable:

(i)In the event the Final Purchase Price is less than the Estimated Purchase Price (such amount, the “Downward Adjustment Amount”), Parent and Securityholders’ Representative shall cause the Adjustment Escrow Agent to pay Parent an amount equal to the Downward Adjustment Amount from the Adjustment Escrow Amount; provided, that if the Downward Adjustment Amount is greater than the Adjustment Escrow Amount, then the Securityholders’ Representative shall pay to the Parent from the Securityholders’ Representative Expense Amount an amount equal to the Downward Adjustment Amount minus the amount paid to Parent from the Adjustment Escrow Amount. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, to the extent that the Downward Adjustment Amount is greater than the sum of the Adjustment Escrow Amount plus the amount available from the Securityholders’ Representative Expense Amount to satisfy the full Downward Adjustment Amount, then Parent and the Surviving Entity shall have the express right to offset any such deficiency against any amount otherwise payable or deliverable following the Closing pursuant to Section 2.13(b) or Section 2.15. For the avoidance of doubt, any amount set off for purposes of Section 2.13(b) or Section 2.15 in accordance with this Section 2.13(a)(i) shall be deemed to have been paid to the Securityholders’ Representative and the Unitholders for purposes of Section 2.13(b) or Section 2.15, as applicable.

88758860_15

Representative (for further distribution to the Unitholders (other than the Blocker Members) in accordance with the Payment Schedule).

For the avoidance of doubt, recovery from the Adjustment Escrow Account and the Securityholders’ Representative Expense Amount and subject to the set off right contained in Section 2.13(a)(i), in each instance (as provided in clause (i) above) shall be the sole and exclusive remedy available to Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Entity and their respective Affiliates for any Downward Adjustment Amount and no Unitholders or any of their respective Affiliates shall have any Liability or obligation under this Agreement for any portion of the Downward Adjustment Amount in excess of the amount of the then remaining Adjustment Escrow Funds and the Securityholders’ Representative Expense Amount and any reduction to the Earn-Out Payments made pursuant to the set off rights in accordance with Section 2.13(a)(i).

(ii)In the event that there is no CARES Unforgiven Debt, no adjustment payment shall be made pursuant to this Section 2.13(b), and Parent and Securityholders’ Representative shall cause the PPP Escrow Agent to release the entire PPP Escrow Amount (including any interest accrued thereon) to the Securityholders’ Representative (for further distribution to the Unitholders (other than the Blocker Members) in accordance with the Payment Schedule).

2.14.Withholding. Each of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company shall be entitled to, after good faith consultation with Securityholders’ Representative, deduct and withhold from the amounts payable or otherwise deliverable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as required to be deducted or withheld therefrom under the Code or under any applicable provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law; provided, however, that other than with respect to compensatory payments or withholding applied for failure to comply with the provisions of Section 6.8(a) of this Agreement, the payor that determines that it has an obligation to deduct and withhold from any payment shall provide advance notice of such determination and each such payor and payee shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize any such Taxes. To the extent such amounts are so deducted or withheld and timely remitted to the appropriate tax authority, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as having been paid to the Person to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid.

The Earn-Out Payments, if any, shall be payable in accordance with Section 2.16.

(b)Subject in all instances to the set off right contained in Section 2.13(a)(i), within five Business Days after the 2022 Adjusted EBITDA is finally determined pursuant to Section 2.16, Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Entity to pay to Securityholders’ Representative (for distribution to the Unitholders (other than the Blocker Members) in accordance with the Payment Schedule) an amount, if any (the “2022 Earn-Out Payment”), equal to the product of (i) eleven (11) and (ii) the difference of (x) 2022 Adjusted EBITDA, minus (y) twenty- four million dollars ($24,000,000); provided, however, that if the calculation pursuant to clause (ii) of this Section 2.15 results in a negative number, no 2022 Earn-Out Payment shall be payable; provided further, that if the calculation pursuant to clause (ii) of this Section 2.15(b) results in a number greater than or equal to the Earn-Out Cap, the 2022 Earn-Out Payment shall be deemed to equal the Earn-Out Cap. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Earn-Out Cap” shall mean sixty-six million dollars ($66,000,000).

(c)Subject in all instances to the set off right contained in Section 2.13(a)(i), and the limitations set forth in this Section 2.15(c), within five Business Days after the 2023 Adjusted EBITDA is finally determined pursuant to Section 2.16, Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Entity to, pay to Securityholders’ Representative (for distribution to the Unitholders (other than the Blocker Members) in accordance with the Payment Schedule) an amount, if any (the “2023 Earn-Out Payment”), equal to the product of (i) eleven (11) and (ii) the difference of (x) 2023 Adjusted EBITDA, minus (y) 2022 Adjusted EBITDA; provided, however, that if the calculation pursuant to clause (ii) of this Section 2.15(c) results in a negative number, no 2023 Earn-Out Payment shall be payable; provided further, that in no event shall the sum (the “Aggregate Earn-Out Payment”) of (A) the amount paid pursuant to Section 2.15(b), and (B) the amount payable pursuant to this Section 2.15(c), exceed, in the aggregate, the Earn-Out Cap, and therefore, if the amount calculated pursuant to this Section 2.15(c) would otherwise cause the Aggregate Earn-Out Payment to exceed, in the aggregate, the Earn-Out Cap, the amount payable pursuant to this Section 2.15(c) shall be reduced to such amount such that the Aggregate Earn-Out Payment equals the Earn-Out Cap. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in the event that the payment made pursuant to Section 2.15(b) was equal to the Earn-Out Cap, no subsequent payment shall be due or payable pursuant to this Section 2.15(c).

6.1.Certain Governmental Matters.

(a)Without in any way limiting the other provisions of this Section 6.1, Parent and the Company agree to make or cause to be made, in consultation and cooperation with the other and as promptly as practicable and advisable after the date hereof, (i) an appropriate filing of a Notification and Report Form pursuant to the HSR Act, which filing shall be made within five

(5) Business Days of the date hereof, (ii) an appropriate filing with the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) pursuant to the Toronto Stock Exchange Company Manual (the “TSX Manual”) within five (5) Business Days of the date hereof requesting that the TSX approve the issuance of the Stock Consideration as contemplated herein, subject only to the satisfaction of the customary listing conditions of the TSX (which shall not include the requirement to obtain any approval of the equityholders of Parent prior to Closing) and (ii) all other necessary registrations, declarations, notices and filings relating to the Transactions with any Governmental Authority with regulatory jurisdiction over enforcement of any applicable Competition Laws (“Governmental Competition Authority”) with respect to the Transactions and to respond as promptly as practicable to any inquiries received and requests made by a Governmental Competition Authority for any additional information and documentary material pursuant to the HSR Act, the TSX Manual and any other Competition Law, and in each case, request “early termination” or any equivalent process, if available. From and after the date hereof and until all governmental approvals required in connection with the Transactions have been obtained, Parent shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, operate its business in such manner or take any action, that could reasonably be expected to significantly increase the risk of not obtaining any such governmental approval or clearance or the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting period. Parent shall be responsible for all filing fees paid pursuant to this Section 6.1.

(b)Each of the Company and Parent shall (i) keep each other apprised of the status of any communications with, and any inquiries or requests for additional information from, any Governmental Competition Authority, and shall respond to any such inquiry or request as promptly as practicable, (ii) cooperate and consult with each other in connection with the making of all filings, notifications and any other material actions pursuant to this Section 6.1, including, subject to applicable Laws relating to the exchange of information, by permitting counsel for the other party to review in advance, and consider in good faith the views of the other party in connection with, any proposed written communication to any Governmental Competition Authority, (iii) provide counsel for the other party with copies of all filings and submissions made by such party and all correspondence and other written communications between such party (and its advisors) and any Governmental Competition Authority and any other information supplied by such party or its Affiliates to a Governmental Competition Authority or received from such a Governmental Competition Authority in connection with the Acquisition; provided, however, that materials may be withheld or redacted before being provided to the other party as necessary to (x) comply with contractual arrangements or (y) address reasonable privilege or confidentiality concerns, and (iv) furnish to the other party such information and assistance as such party reasonably may request in connection with the preparation of any submissions to, or agency Action by, any Governmental Competition Authority. Upon and subject to the terms of this Section 6.1, each party agrees to cooperate and use reasonable best efforts to assist in any defense by any other party to the Transactions before any Governmental Competition Authority reviewing the Transactions, including by responding as promptly as practicable to any requests for information by such

88758860_15

Governmental Competition Authority or such assistance as may be reasonably requested by the other party to this Agreement in such defense.

(c)If any objections are asserted by any Governmental Competition Authority with respect to the Transactions under any applicable Competition Law or which would otherwise prevent, materially impede or materially delay the consummation of the Merger, or if any Action is instituted by any Governmental Competition Authority or any private party challenging the Transactions as violative of any applicable Competition Law, or an Order is issued enjoining the Transactions, each of the Company and Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to resolve any such objections or Actions so as to permit consummation of the Transactions by the Closing as soon as practicable.

(d)Each of the Company and Parent shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting periods under the applicable Competition Law as soon as practicable.

The Company and Parent shall not extend, directly or indirectly, any such waiting period or enter into any agreement with a Governmental Competition Authority to delay or to not consummate the Acquisition on the Closing Date, except with the prior written consent of the other party to this Agreement, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Company and Parent shall not have any substantive contact with any Governmental Competition Authority in respect of any filing or Action contemplated by this Section 6.1 unless it consults with the other party in advance and, to the extent permitted by such Governmental Competition Authority, gives the other party the opportunity to participate.

The provisions of this Section 6.5 are intended to be for the benefit of, and will be enforceable by, each indemnified party, his or her heirs and his or her representatives and are in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other right to indemnification or contribution that any such Person may have by contract or otherwise.

(b)In the event that any Person incurs Losses that are or would have been subject to coverage under an officers’ and directors’ liability insurance policy pursuant to Sections 6.5(a) and such policy terminated (but not due to a temporal expiration) or affords lesser coverage than is required by Sections 6.5 (a), in each case, as a result of the Parent’s failure to fulfill its obligations pursuant to Section 6.5(a), the Parent and the Surviving Entity, jointly and severally, shall pay to such Persons such amounts and provide any other coverage or benefits as such Persons would have received pursuant to such policy.

(c)The provisions of this Section 6.5 are intended to be for the benefit of, and will be enforceable by, each such Person entitled to indemnification, his or her heirs and his or her representatives.

6.6.Employee Benefit Matters.

(a)During the one-year period following the Closing Date (or such shorter period of employment, as the case may be), Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Entity or the applicable Subsidiary to, provide each employee of the Surviving Entity or any of its Subsidiaries who is employed at the Closing Date and who remains employed with the Surviving Entity or any of its Subsidiaries immediately following the Closing (each, an “Affected Employee”) with (i) a base salary or hourly wage rate that is at least equal to the base salary or hourly wage rate provided to the Affected Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date, (ii) bonus opportunities (including annual and long-term incentive opportunities) that, with respect to each Affected Employee, are comparable in the aggregate to those opportunities in effect for such Affected Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date, and (iii) retirement, health and welfare benefits that, with respect to each Affected Employee, are comparable

88758860_15

in the aggregate to such benefits provided to such Affected Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date.

(b)Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Entity or the applicable Subsidiary to, provide each Affected Employee who incurs a termination of employment during the one-year period following the Closing Date with severance benefits that are no less favorable than the severance benefits to which such Affected Employee would have been entitled with respect to such termination under the severance policies, practices and guidelines of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as in effect immediately prior to the Closing Date or, if greater, the severance benefits provided to similarly situated employees of Parent. In addition, during the one-year period following the Closing Date, Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Entity or the applicable Subsidiary to, honor all employment and severance agreements that are in effect with an Affected Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date.

(c)Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Entity or the applicable Subsidiary to, give each Affected Employee credit (for purposes of eligibility to participate and vesting, but not benefit accrual and excluding defined benefit pension, equity, and retiree benefits) for service with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the Closing Date (to the same extent such service credit was granted under the applicable Benefit Plans) under the comparable employee benefit plans, programs and policies of Parent, the Surviving Entity and any of their Subsidiaries in which such Affected Employees became participants, as if such service had been performed with Parent, except to the extent that such service crediting would result in duplication of benefits for the same period of service.

(d)Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Entity or the applicable Subsidiary to, use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) waive any preexisting condition limitations otherwise applicable to Affected Employees and their eligible dependents under any plan maintained by Parent or any of its Affiliates (including the Surviving Entity) that provides health benefits in which Affected Employees may be eligible to participate following the Closing, other than any limitations that were in effect with respect to such Affected Employees as of the Closing Date under the analogous Benefit Plan; (ii) honor any deductible, co-payment and out-of-pocket maximums incurred by a Affected Employee and his or her eligible dependents under the health Benefit Plans in which such Affected Employee participated immediately prior to the Closing Date during the portion of the plan year prior to the Closing Date in satisfying any deductibles, co- payments or out-of-pocket maximums under health plans maintained by Parent or any of its Affiliates (including the Company) in which such Affected Employee is eligible to participate after the Closing Date in the same plan year in which such deductibles, co-payments or out-of-pocket maximums were incurred; and (iii) waive any waiting period limitation or evidence of insurability requirement that would otherwise be applicable to an Affected Employee and his or her eligible dependents on or after the Closing Date, in each case to the extent such Affected Employee or eligible dependent had satisfied any similar limitation or requirement under an analogous Benefit Plan prior to the Closing Date.

(e)All provisions contained in this Agreement with respect to employee benefit plans or employee compensation are included for the sole benefit of the respective parties hereto and shall not create any right in any other Person (including Affected Employees, participants or beneficiaries in any Benefit Plan, retirees, or dependents or beneficiaries of employees or retirees).

(f)Nothing contained in this Section 6.6, express or implied (i) shall be construed to establish, amend, or modify, or limit the ability of Parent, the Surviving Entity or any of their Affiliates to amend modify or terminate, any benefit or compensation plan, program, agreement, contract or arrangement at any time assumed, established, sponsored or maintained by any of them, subject to the

88758860_15

terms thereof, or (ii) shall limit the ability of Parent, the Surviving Entity or their Affiliates from terminating the employment of any employee (including any Affected Employee) at any time and for any or no reason subject to the terms of any existing contracts.

6.7.Intercompany Accounts. The Company shall cause all Intercompany Accounts relating to the business of the Company and any of its Subsidiaries to be settled or terminated prior to Closing, except otherwise related to the Lease Agreement.

6.8.Tax Matters.

(a)FIRPTA Certificate. Prior to the Closing, the Securityholders’ Representative shall deliver to Parent and Merger Sub a properly completed and executed IRS Form W-9 from each Unitholder certifying that such Unitholder is not a foreign person for purposes of Code Section 1445 and 1446(f).

(b)Transfer Taxes. Parent shall, and with Securityholders’ Representative’s good faith cooperation and assistance, prepare, execute and file, or cause to be prepared, executed and filed, all Tax Returns, questionnaires, applications or other documents regarding any real property transfer, sales, use, transfer, value added, stock transfer and stamp Taxes, any transfer, recording, registration and other fees and any similar Taxes which, in each case, become payable in connection with any transaction contemplated by this Agreement, the ancillary agreements and the other transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (together, with any related interests, penalties or additions to Tax, the “Transfer Taxes”).

(c)Straddle Periods. For purposes of this Agreement, in the case of any Taxes that are payable for a Straddle Period, the portion of such Tax which relates to the portion of such Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date shall (A) in the case of any Taxes other than Taxes based upon or related to income, receipts, sales, use, or payroll, be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction (1) the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date and (2) the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire Straddle Period and (B) in the case of any Tax based upon or related to income, receipts, sales, or payroll, be deemed equal to the amount which would be payable if the relevant Straddle Period ended as of the close of the Closing Date. For purposes of this Section 6.8(c), to the maximum extent permitted by Law, (A) any item determined on an annual or periodic basis (including amortization and depreciation deductions) for income Tax purposes shall be allocated to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date based on the relative number of days in such portion of the Straddle Period as compared to the number of days in the entire Straddle Period; (B) any Tax or item of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit resulting from a Parent Closing Date Transaction shall be allocated to the portion of the Straddle Period beginning on the day after the Closing Date; and (C) any item of deduction attributable to any Transaction Expenses and other items incurred by the Unitholders shall be allocated to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the parties agree that for purposes of determining income, profit, loss, deduction, or any other items allocable to any Tax period of the Company, such items will be determined using the interim closing of the books method under Code Section 706 and Treasury Regulations Section 1.706-4 (or any similar or corresponding provision of state or local law), using the “calendar day” convention, effective as of the end of the Closing Date.

The initial press release or public announcement issued by the parties concerning this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be in a form agreed to by Parent, Securityholders’ Representative and the Blocker Seller and thereafter the parties shall consult with each other (and obtain the other party’s prior consent) before issuing any press release or otherwise making any public statements with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, in each case except (a) based on the reasonable advice of counsel, such press release or public statement is required by applicable Law, stock exchange rule or regulation, or (b) any press release or other public statement that is consistent with previous press releases, public disclosures or public statements made by a party hereto in accordance with this Agreement, in each case under this clause (b) to the extent such disclosure is still accurate, and in each case under clause (a) and (b), provided the other party with an opportunity to review and comment on such press release or public statement prior to its issuance, distribution or publication. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 10.12, on and after the Closing Date, the Blocker Partners and their Affiliates will be permitted (i) to disclose to their respective and prospective members, limited partners and partners (who may disclose to their direct and indirect investors) the fact that the Closing has occurred, the consideration paid hereunder, other items directly relating to such consideration and other types of information that are customary for private equity funds to provide to their respective and prospective members, limited partners and partners and (ii) to disclose in connection with normal fund raising and related marketing or informational or reporting activities, including on their websites and in their marketing materials, any such information permitted to be disclosed pursuant to clause (i) above and any information previously provided as part of a press release or public announcement issued or made with the prior written consent of the Parent, the Securityholders’ Representative, and the Blocker Seller which disclosure may be accompanied by the logo of the Company.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

In connection with the Merger, the undersigned (“the undersigned” or “you”) hereby surrenders the above described Units.

By virtue of the Merger, as more thoroughly described in the Agreement, at the Effective Time, each Unit will automatically be converted into the right for you to receive (i) an amount equal to the amount payable to you pursuant to and in accordance with Section 2.11(f) of the Agreement (in the case of Class O Units or Class M Units, as adjusted in accordance with Section 2.13(a) and (b) of the Agreement for the Escrow Amounts detailed below), Section 2.15 of the Agreement (for Earn-Out Payments) (if any) and Section 6.11(b) (if any) and (ii) if you are a holder of Class O Units or Class M Units, a number of common shares of Parent equal to the portion of Closing Stock Value payable to you pursuant to Section 2.10 in accordance with the Payment Schedule (see summary under “Closing Date Stock Issuance; Post-Closing Registration” below) and a number of common shares of Parent issuable pursuant to Section 6.12(f) (if any). In order to receive such amount, you will need to first properly execute and deliver this Letter of Transmittal and the materials contemplated hereby.

The undersigned, upon request, will execute and deliver any additional documents deemed by the Paying Agent to be reasonably necessary or desirable to complete the surrender of the Units listed above in order to receive such payment.

All authority herein conferred or agreed to be conferred herein shall survive the death or incapacity of the undersigned, and any obligation of the undersigned hereunder shall be binding upon the heirs, executors, administrators, personal

representatives, trustees in bankruptcy, successors and assigns of the undersigned. The surrender of the Units hereby is irrevocable and, once delivered to the Paying Agent, may not be withdrawn under any circumstances.

The undersigned understands that surrender is not made in acceptable form until the receipt by the Paying Agent of this Letter of Transmittal and Form W-9, properly completed and duly signed. All questions as to validity, form and eligibility of any surrender of the Units hereby will be reasonably determined by Parent (which may delegate power in whole or in part to the Paying Agent) and such determination shall be final and binding.

The undersigned acknowledges and agrees that the Final Purchase Price, as adjusted pursuant to the Agreement, will be distributed by the Paying Agent in accordance with the Agreement (other than the portion thereof to be paid to the Blocker Members, which will be paid by Parent directly to the Blocker Members) and that (i) an aggregate amount equal to $500,000 (the “Adjustment Escrow Amount”) will be deposited into escrow on behalf of the Unitholders (other than the Blocker Members) to satisfy any Final Purchase Price adjustment and (ii) an aggregate amount equal to $441,162 (the “PPP Escrow Amount” and together with the Adjustment Escrow Amount, the “Escrow Amounts”) will be deposited into escrow on behalf of the Unitholders (other than the Blocker Members) to satisfy any CARES Unforgiven Debt. After the Closing and in accordance with the timing set forth in the Agreement, the Adjustment Escrow Amount (less any amount required to be paid to Parent pursuant to Section 2.13(a) of the Agreement) and the PPP Escrow Amount (less any amount required to be paid to Parent pursuant to Section 2.13(b) of the Agreement) will be released for the benefit of the Unitholders (other than the Blocker Members), in each case, in accordance with the terms of the Agreement and in accordance with the Adjustment Escrow Agreement and PPP Escrow Agreement, as applicable.

In addition, the undersigned acknowledges and agrees that the Final Purchase Price payable on the Closing Date contains the reductions set forth in the Agreement, including a reduction in the amount of $[●] (the “Securityholders’ Representative Expense Amount”) that will be held by the Securityholders’ Representative on behalf of the Unitholders (other than the Blocker Members) to pay amounts required to be paid by the Securityholders’ Representative under the Agreement, including, without limitation, any downward adjustment in excess of the Adjustment Escrow Amount and third party expenses and costs incurred by the Securityholders’ Representative in connection with the consummation of the Merger (see summary under “The Securityholders’ Representative; Securityholders’ Representative Expense Amount” below). Furthermore, Unitholders (other than the Blocker Members) may be entitled to receive Earn-Out Payments to the extent that certain financial thresholds are met during the 2022 and 2023 calendar years.

At the Closing, Parent shall deliver to each Unitholder (other than the Blocker Members or with respect to the Redeemed Units) book-entry credits in the name of such Unitholder (other than the Blocker Members), and for the book-entry credit allocable to SWB Management, LLC, directly to the SWB Members, in accordance with the Payment Schedule representing that number of common shares (the “Stock Consideration”) of Parent, without par value per share (“Parent Common Shares”) having a value equal to such Unitholder’s or SWB Member’s portion, as applicable, of the Closing Stock Value determined in accordance with the Payment Schedule, which in the aggregate for all Parent Common Shares shall be equal to fifty million dollars ($50,000,000) (the “Closing Stock Value”) calculated based on the volume-weighted average trading price of Parent Common Shares on the NASDAQ for the thirty (30) day period immediately

ending on the close of trading on the day that the Parent issues a public announcement concerning the Transactions as required under applicable Securities Laws. Additionally on the date on which the Registerable Shares (as defined below) are registered for resale pursuant to Section 6.12 of the Agreement, in the event that the Registerable Value is less than the Closing Stock Value, then Parent shall issue to the Unitholders (other than the Blocker Members), and for the Parent Common Shares allocable to SWB Management, LLC, directly to the SWB Members, in accordance with the Payment Schedule, and include in the Registrable Shares, an additional number of Parent Common Shares, equal to the quotient of (X) the difference of (1) the Closing Stock Value, minus (2) Registerable Value, divided by (Y) the Pre-Registration Price, calculations of which are set forth in Section 6.12(f)(ii) of the Agreement. In the event that in calculating the Pre-Registration Price (as defined in the Merger Agreement) issuing the additional Parent Common Shares hereunder would result in the Stock Consideration being greater than the Closing Stock Value, then the Parent shall only be obligated to issue the number of Parent Common Shares that will result in the Unitholders (other than the Blocker Members or with respect to the Redeemed Units) holding Stock Consideration in an amount equal to the Closing Stock Value.

Parent will use commercially reasonable efforts, to within ninety (90) days following the Closing, prepare and file with the SEC a shelf registration statement on Form F-3 or Form F-10 (or, if Form F-3 or Form F- 10 is not then available to Parent, on such form of registration statement as is then available to effect a registration of the Registrable Shares for resale) (the “Registration Statement”), that would permit the resale of all of the Parent Common Shares constituting the Stock Consideration (as may be adjusted as detailed below, the “Registrable Shares”) under the Securities Act in accordance with Section 6.12 of the Agreement; it being understood that if such Registration Statement is a shelf registration statement, the prospectus contained therein need not name the Unitholders nor otherwise identify the Registrable Shares if such prospectus is supplemented with such information by the filing of a prospectus supplement thereto (a “Prospectus Supplement”) following the effectiveness of such Registration Statement, and if the Parent fails to file the Registration Statement within such ninety (90) day period, Parent shall continue to use commercially reasonable efforts to do so until such Registration Statement has been filed.

The Final Purchase Price and Stock Consideration will be distributed in the manner described in the Adjustment Escrow Agreement, the PPP Escrow Agreement, the Agreement and this Letter of Transmittal, and amounts owed to the undersigned pursuant to the Agreement will be paid to the undersigned.

The undersigned understands that payment to it of the amount described herein will be made as promptly as practicable after the surrender of the Units is made in acceptable form, but in no event before the Effective Time. The undersigned understands and agrees that the amount described herein paid in exchange for its Units shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to all Units held by the undersigned.

To the extent that the undersigned indirectly owns Units as a member of SWB Management, LLC, the undersigned acknowledges and agrees that (i) the reference to Units herein shall refer to the Units held by the undersigned via SWB Management, LLC on a look-through basis and (ii) the undersigned shall individually be bound by the terms and obligations herein, including without limitation, the release set forth in Paragraph 6 and the restrictive covenants set forth in Paragraphs 7, 8, and 9.

IMPORTANT: Delivery of the required materials will be effected and risk of loss shall pass only upon receipt by the Paying Agent at the address above.

The undersigned must complete item (4) on the Form W- 9 if the undersigned is exempt from backup withholding and specify the appropriate code found in the instructions found with the Form W-9. Part I of the form may be completed with “Applied For” if the Unitholder has not been issued a TIN and has applied for a TIN or intends to apply for a TIN in the near future. If “Applied For” is indicated and the Paying Agent is not provided with a TIN within sixty (60) days, then the Paying Agent will withhold 24% of all payments of the Final Purchase Price due to the Unitholder until a TIN is provided to the Paying Agent. Further instructions to completing the Form W-9 are included with the Form W-9 and should be read prior to completing the form.

9.Waiver of Conditions. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Parent reserves the right to waive any and all conditions set forth herein and accepts for exchange any securities submitted for exchange.

IMPORTANT TAX INFORMATION

A United States Holder (as defined below) of Units who is receiving any consideration in connection with the Merger is generally required under United States federal income tax law to provide his, her or its current taxpayer identification number (“TIN”). If such holder is an individual, the TIN is his or her Social Security Number. If the holder does not provide the correct TIN or an adequate basis for an exemption, the holder may be subject to a penalty imposed by the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”), and any consideration such holder receives in the Merger may be subject to backup withholding at the applicable rate (currently 24%). Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Rather, the tax liability of persons subject to backup withholding will be reduced by the amount of tax withheld. If withholding results in an overpayment of taxes, a refund from the IRS may be obtained. To prevent backup withholding on any cash payment made to a holder of SW Brewing Company, LLC Units in connection with the Merger Agreement, a United States Holder is required to notify SW Brewing Company, LLC of his, her or its correct TIN by completing the enclosed Form W-9 and certifying under penalties of perjury that the TIN provided on Form W-9 is correct. In addition, the holder must date and sign as indicated. If the holder does not provide the Paying Agent with a certified TIN within by the time of payment, backup withholding may apply.

To prevent backup withholding, holders that are not United States Holders should (i) submit a properly completed IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, or other applicable IRS form W-8, to the Paying Agent, certifying under penalties of perjury to the holder’s foreign status or (ii) otherwise establish an exemption.

Certain holders (including, among others, corporations) are exempt recipients not subject to these backup withholding requirements. See the enclosed copy of the Form W-9 and the General Instructions to Form W-9. To avoid possible erroneous backup withholding, exempt United States Holders should complete and return the Form W-9.

For purposes of these instructions, a “United States Holder” is (i) an individual who is a citizen or resident alien of the United States, (ii) a corporation (including an entity taxable as a corporation) or partnership created under the laws of the United States or of any political subdivision thereof, (iii) an estate the income of which is subject to United States federal income tax regardless of its source or (iv) a trust if (a) a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of the trust and one or more United States persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (b) the trust has a valid election in effect under applicable Treasury regulations to be treated as a U.S. person.

See the enclosed “General Instructions” on Form W-9 for additional information and instructions.

IN ALL CASES, TAX FORMS PREPARED AND ATTACHED TO THIS LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL SHOULD BE COMPLETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH INSTRUCTIONS FROM THE IRS ATTACHED TO EACH FORM OR AVAILABLE AT XXX.XXX.XXX. PLEASE CONSULT YOUR INDEPENDENT LEGAL, ACCOUNTING OR FINANCIAL ADVISOR FOR FURTHER QUESTIONS.

FAILURE TO PROPERLY COMPLETE THE INFORMATION REQUESTED ON FORM W-9 MAY RESULT IN WITHHOLDING ON ANY CASH PAYMENTS MADE TO YOU.

EAST\177140163.5

instructions, or is not satisfied with the verification it receives, it will not execute the instruction until all such issues have been resolved. The persons and telephone numbers for call backs may be changed only in writing, executed by an Authorized Representative of applicable Party and actually received and acknowledged by the Escrow Agent.

5.Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent undertakes to perform only such duties as are expressly set forth herein, which shall be deemed purely ministerial in nature, and no other duties, including but not limited to any fiduciary duties, shall be implied. The Escrow Agent shall neither be responsible for, nor chargeable with, knowledge of, nor have any requirements to comply with, the terms and conditions of any other agreement, instrument or document between the Parties, in connection herewith, if any, including without limitation the Business Combination Agreement, nor shall the Escrow Agent be required to determine if any Person has complied with any such agreements, nor shall any additional obligations of the Escrow Agent be inferred from the terms of such agreements, even though reference thereto may be made in this Agreement. Notwithstanding the terms of any other agreement between the Parties, the terms and conditions of this Agreement will control the actions of Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent may rely upon and shall not be liable for acting or refraining from acting upon any Joint Release Instruction or Final Determination furnished to it hereunder and reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed by an Authorized Representative of the proper Party or Parties. Concurrent with the execution of this Agreement, the Parties shall deliver to the Escrow Agent authorized representative’s forms in the form of Exhibit A-1 and Exhibit A-2 attached hereto. The Escrow Agent shall be under no duty to inquire into or investigate the validity, accuracy or content of any such document, notice, instruction or request. The Escrow Agent shall have no duty to solicit any payments which may be due it or the Escrow Funds. In the event that the Escrow Agent shall be uncertain as to its duties or rights hereunder or shall receive instructions, claims or demands from any Party hereto which, in its opinion, conflict with any of the provisions of this Agreement, it shall be entitled to refrain from taking any action and its sole obligation shall be to keep safely all property held in escrow until it shall be directed otherwise in a Joint Release Instruction or Final Determination. The Escrow Agent may interplead all of the assets held hereunder into a court of competent jurisdiction or may seek a declaratory judgment with respect to certain circumstances, and thereafter be fully relieved from any and all liability or obligation with respect to such interpleaded assets or any action or nonaction based on such declaratory judgment. The Escrow Agent may consult with legal counsel of its selection in the event of any dispute or question as to the meaning or construction of any of the provisions hereof or its duties hereunder. The Escrow Agent will not be liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in good faith except to the extent that the Escrow Agent’s fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct was the cause of any

EAST\177140163.5

direct loss to either Party. To the extent practicable, the Parties agree to pursue any redress or recourse in connection with any dispute (other than a dispute involving the Escrow Agent) without making the Escrow Agent a party to the same. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in no event shall the Escrow Agent be liable for any special, indirect, punitive, incidental or consequential losses or damages of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits), even if the Escrow Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such losses or damages and regardless of the form of action.

6.Resignation and Removal of the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent (a) may resign and be discharged from its duties or obligations hereunder by giving thirty (30) calendar days advance notice in writing of such resignation to the Parties specifying a date when such resignation shall take effect or (b) may be removed, with or without cause, by Parent and the Securityholders’ Representative acting jointly at any time by providing written notice executed by an Authorized Representative of each Party, to the Escrow Agent. Any corporation or association into which the Escrow Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation or association to which all or substantially all of the escrow business of the Escrow Agent’s line of business may be transferred, shall be the Escrow Agent under this Agreement without further act. The Escrow Agent’s sole responsibility after such thirty (30) day notice period expires or after receipt of written notice of removal shall be to hold and safeguard the Escrow Funds (without any obligation to reinvest the same) and to deliver the same (i) to a substitute or successor escrow agent pursuant to a joint written designation from the Parties, (ii) as set forth in a Joint Release Instruction or (iii) in accordance with the directions of a Final Determination, and, at the time of such delivery, the Escrow Agent’s obligations hereunder shall cease and terminate. In the event the Escrow Agent resigns, if the Parties have failed to appoint a successor escrow agent prior to the expiration of thirty (30) calendar days following receipt of the notice of resignation, the Escrow Agent may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of such a successor escrow agent or for other appropriate relief, and any such resulting appointment shall be binding upon all of the parties hereto.

7.Fees and Expenses. All fees and expenses of the Escrow Agent are described in Schedule 1 attached hereto and shall be paid one-half by Parent and one-half by the Securityholders’ Representative. The fees agreed upon for the services to be rendered hereunder are intended as full compensation for the Escrow Agent services as contemplated by this Agreement.

8.Indemnity. Each of the Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Escrow Agent and its affiliates and their respective successors, assigns, directors, officers, agents and employees (the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all losses, damages, claims, liabilities, penalties, judgments, settlements, actions, suits, proceedings, litigation, investigations, costs or expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of one outside counsel and experts and their staffs and all expense of document location, duplication and shipment actually incurred) (collectively “Escrow Agent Losses”) arising out of or in connection with (a) the Escrow Agent’s execution and performance of this Agreement, tax reporting or withholding, the enforcement of any rights or remedies under or in connection with this Agreement, or as may arise by reason of any act, omission or error of such Indemnitee, except to the extent that such Escrow Agent Losses, as adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction, have been caused by the fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee, or (b) its following any instructions or other directions from Parent or the Securityholders’ Representative. The Parties hereby grant the Escrow Agent a lien on, right of set-off against and security interest in, the Escrow Funds for the payment of any reasonable claim for indemnification, expenses and amounts due hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Parent and the Securityholders’ Representative agree, solely as between themselves, that any obligation for indemnification under this Section 8 (or for reasonable fees and expenses of the Escrow Agent described in Section 7) shall be borne by the Party or Parties determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be responsible for causing the loss, damage, liability, cost or expense against which the Escrow Agent is entitled to indemnification or, if no

EAST\177140163.5

such determination is made, then one-half by Parent and one-half by the Securityholders’ Representative. The Parties acknowledge that the foregoing indemnities shall survive the resignation or removal of the Escrow Agent or the termination of this Agreement.

9.Tax Matters.

(a)Securityholders’ Representative shall be responsible for and the taxpayer on all taxes due on the interest or income earned, if any, on the Escrow Funds for the calendar year in which such interest or income is earned. The Escrow Agent shall report any interest or income earned on the Escrow Funds, if any, to the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) or other taxing authority on IRS Form 1099. Prior to the date hereof, the Parties shall provide the Escrow Agent with certified tax identification numbers by furnishing appropriate IRS forms W-9 or W-8 as applicable and such other forms and documents that the Escrow Agent may request.

(b)The Escrow Agent shall be responsible only for income reporting to the IRS with respect to income earned on the Escrow Funds. The Escrow Agent shall withhold any taxes required to be withheld by applicable law, including but not limited to required withholding in the absence of proper tax documentation, and shall remit such taxes to the appropriate authorities.

(c)The Escrow Agent, its affiliates, and its employees are not in the business of providing tax or legal advice to any taxpayer outside of Citigroup, Inc. and its affiliates. This Agreement and any amendments or attachments hereto are not intended or written to be used, and may not be used or relied upon, by any such taxpayer or for the purpose of avoiding tax penalties. Any such taxpayer should seek advice based on the taxpayer's particular circumstances from an independent tax advisor.

10.Covenant of the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent hereby agrees and covenants with Parent and the Securityholders’ Representative that it shall perform all of its obligations under this Agreement and shall not deliver custody or possession of any of the Escrow Funds to anyone except pursuant to the express terms of this Agreement or as otherwise required by law.

13.Miscellaneous. The provisions of this Agreement may be waived, altered, amended or supplemented, in whole or in part, only by a writing signed by all of the parties hereto. Neither this Agreement nor any right or interest hereunder may be assigned in whole or in part by any party without the prior consent of the other parties.

All signatures of the parties to this Agreement may be transmitted by facsimile or electronic transmission in portable document format (.pdf), and such facsimile or .pdf will, for all purposes, be deemed to be the original signature of such party whose signature it reproduces, and will be binding upon such party. If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be prohibited or unenforceable by reason of any applicable law of a jurisdiction, then such provision shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions thereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in such jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provisions in any other jurisdiction. The Parties represent, warrant and covenant that each document, notice, instruction or request provided by such Party to the Escrow Agent shall comply with applicable laws and regulations.

16.Assignment; Successors and Assigns. No assignment of the interest of any of the Parties shall be binding upon the Escrow Agent unless and until written notice of such assignment shall be filed with and consented to by the Escrow Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld). Any transfer or assignment of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder in violation of the terms hereof shall be void and of no force or effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective legal representatives, successors and permitted assigns.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Xxxxxx will be permitted to (i) serve as a member of the board of directors or advisory boards (or their equivalents in the case of a non-corporate entity) of non- competing private businesses and charitable organizations so long as such service would not have a material adverse effect on the reputation of the Company Group (as defined below), (ii) engage in charitable activities and community affairs and (iii) manage his personal investments and affairs, except that Xxxxxx will limit the time devoted to the foregoing activities so as not to materially interfere, individually or in the aggregate, with the performance of his duties and responsibilities hereunder and shall comply with Section 5 hereof, and except that the Manager shall promptly disclose all outside activities under (i) and (ii) hereof to the Aphria CEO.

4.Compensation and Benefits. As compensation for all services performed by the Manager under this Agreement and during the Term:

Management Fee. During the Term, the Company shall pay to the Manager an annual amount of four hundred thousand dollars ($400,000) per year (the “Management Fee”) payable in equal installments on a monthly basis. The Management Fee will be subject to such upward adjustment as may be approved by the Aphria CEO, from time to time.

Up-front Stock Grant. As soon as reasonably practicable following the Effective Date, Xxxxxx shall receive 50,000 Restricted Share Units (“RSUs”), which shall be granted in accordance with and remain subject to the terms and conditions of the Aphria’s Omnibus Long Term Incentive Plan (“Omnibus Plan”). Any RSUs granted pursuant to this Section shall vest equally over two years from the date of grant, with half of the RSUs vesting one year from the date of grant and the remainder vesting two years from the date of grant.

Bonus. During each Fiscal Year during the Term, the Manager shall be eligible to receive a performance-based bonus of up to 100% of the Management Fee (the “Bonus”) to be paid within 90 days following the Fiscal Year end, or within such other period as determined by the Aphria Board of Directors. The Bonus shall be paid in cash or RSUs, at the Manager’s option. Payment of the Bonus shall be dependent upon the Company’s overall achievement of four (4) performance metrics to be developed with and agreed to by the Aphria CEO (the “SweetWater Scorecard”) in consultation with the Manager and Xxxxxx.

This Agreement must be in full force and effect on the date the Bonus is to be paid in order for the Manager to be eligible to receive the Bonus.

Time Off. The Manager may permit Xxxxxx to take time off without reduction of the Management Fee at the Manager's discretion subject to the reasonable business needs of the Company and provided that the number of days of such time off do not have a significant negative impact on Xxxxxx'x performance of the Manager's or Xxxxxx'x duties or responsibilities to the Company. The Manager may permit Xxxxxx to leave to attend such meetings, seminars, conferences, lectures, conventions and the like as are reasonable and proper to maintain or enhance the skills pertinent to the performance of his duties.

Participation in Employee Benefit Plans. During the Term, Xxxxxx shall be entitled to participate in all employee benefit plans from time to time in effect for employees of the Company generally and senior executives, except to the extent such plans are duplicative of benefits otherwise provided by the Manager under this Agreement. Participation by Xxxxxx in any such employee benefit plan shall be subject to the terms of the applicable plan documents and the standard policies and procedures of the Company with respect to such employee benefit plan, and any other restrictions or limitations imposed by law. The Company may alter, modify, add, suspend

or terminate any employee benefit plan at any time as the Company, in its sole discretion, may determine to be appropriate, without recourse by the Manager or Xxxxxx.

Business Expenses. The Company shall pay or reimburse the Manager for all reasonable travel (including first-class travel accommodations within the United States and including travel to and from Xxxxxx'x primary residence to the Company's headquarters), entertainment and other business expenses incurred or paid by the Manager in the performance of Xxxxxx'x duties and responsibilities hereunder, subject to such reasonable substantiation and documentation as may be reasonably required by the Company from time to time. In addition, during the Term, the Company will provide the Manager, for further provision to Xxxxxx, with an automobile of a similar type, style and cost Xxxxxx is currently provided, and repair costs of such automobile.

5.Confidential Information and Restricted Activities.

Confidential Information. Each of the Manager and Xxxxxx acknowledges that, as a result of the Manager being a manager of the Company, both prior to the date hereof and during the course of the engagement, the Manager and Xxxxxx have learned of and will continue to learn of Confidential Information, as defined below, and they have developed and may continue to develop Confidential Information on behalf of the Company Group. The Manager and Xxxxxx agree that they will not use or disclose to any Person (except as required by applicable law or for the proper performance of their duties and responsibilities for the Company Group) any Confidential Information obtained by them incident to any association with the Company Group, other than in connection with the enforcement of their rights hereunder. The Manager and Xxxxxx agree that this restriction shall continue to apply after the engagement hereunder terminates, regardless of the reason for such termination. Further, the Manager and Xxxxxx agree to furnish prompt notice to Aphria of any required disclosure of Confidential Information sought pursuant to subpoena, court order or any other legal process or requirement, and agree to provide Aphria a reasonable opportunity to seek protection of the Confidential Information prior to any such disclosure.

Protection of Documents. All documents, records and files of the Company Group, in any media of whatever kind and description, relating to the business, present or otherwise, of the Company Group, and any copies, in whole or in part, thereof (the “Documents:), whether or not prepared by the Manager or Xxxxxx, shall be the sole and exclusive property of the Company Group. The Manager and Xxxxxx agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to safeguard all Documents and to surrender to Aphria, at the time the engagement hereunder terminates, all Documents then in the Manager's or Xxxxxx'x possession or under their control to which no member of the Company Group or any officer or employee thereof has access and can provide such Documents to Aphria without expense. The Manager and Xxxxxx also agree to disclose to Aphria, at the time the engagement hereunder terminates or at such earlier time or times as Aphria CEO may specify, all passwords necessary or desirable to obtain access to, or that would assist in obtaining access to, any Documents which the Manager or Xxxxxx has password-protected on any computer equipment, network or system of the Company Group.

Assignment of Rights to Intellectual Property. Each of the Manager and Xxxxxx hereby assigns and agrees to assign to the Company Group its or his full right, title and interest in and to all Intellectual Property created or developed by Manager or Bench during the Term. To the extent applicable, Xxxxxx hereby waives his moral rights in and to the Intellectual Property in favor of the Company Group and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Each of the Manager and Xxxxxx agrees to execute any and all applications for domestic and foreign patents, copyrights, trademarks or other proprietary rights and to do such other acts (including without limitation the execution and delivery of instruments of further assurance or confirmation) requested by the Company, all at the Company's expense, to assign the Intellectual Property to the Company Group and to permit the Company to enforce any patents, copyrights, trademarks or other proprietary rights to the Intellectual Property. Neither the Manager nor Xxxxxx will charge the Company for time spent in complying with these obligations during the Term. All copyrightable works that the Manager or Xxxxxx creates during the Term shall be considered "work made for hire" and shall, upon creation, be owned exclusively by the Company.

Restricted Activities. The Manager and Xxxxxx agree that the following restrictions on their activities during and after the Term are necessary to protect the goodwill, Confidential Information, trade secrets and other legitimate interests of the Company Group:

During the Term and, except as set forth below, during the twelve (12)- month period immediately following the end of the Term (the “Tail Period”), regardless of the reason therefor (in the aggregate, the “Restricted Period”), except in their capacity as directly or indirectly a member, manager or service provider to the Company Group and in furtherance of the interests of the Company Group, the Manager and/or Xxxxxx shall not, directly or indirectly, engage in, carry on, provide services in connection with, or otherwise assist or compete with all or any portion of the business or businesses of the Company Group, in each case as carried on during the Term or, following termination of the Term but during the Tail Period, if applicable, as of the date of termination, in any geographic area in which the Company Group does business during the Term or, following termination of the Term but during the Tail Period, if applicable, in any geographic area in which the Company Group has devoted substantial expense or time in anticipation of launching into such geographic area within the subsequent twelve (12) months. The passive ownership of less than 5% of the outstanding stock of any publicly-traded corporation will not be deemed to be a violation of the terms hereof.

ii.

During the Restricted Period, neither the Manager nor Xxxxxx will, directly or indirectly, for itself, himself or any other Person, solicit the business of any Person known by the Manager or Xxxxxx to be a customer, distributor or wholesaler of the Company Group with respect to the business of the Company Group, induce or attempt to induce any Person known by the Manager or Xxxxxx to be a customer, distributor or wholesaler of the Company Group to cease doing business with the Company Group, or in any way interfere with the relationship between the Company Group and any Person known by the Manager or Xxxxxx to be a customer, distributor or wholesaler of the Company Group.

iii.

During the Restricted Period, neither the Manager nor Xxxxxx will recruit, offer employment, employ, engage as a consultant, lure or entice away, or in any other manner persuade or attempt to persuade, any Person who is an employee or independent contractor of the Company Group to leave the employ of, or engagement with, the Company Group until one (1) year after such individual's employment or independent contractor relationship with the Company Group has been terminated; provided, however, that the provisions of this Section 5(d)(iii) shall not prohibit the Manager or Xxxxxx from (i) employing any employee or engaging any independent contractor of any member of the Company Group who contacts the Manager or Xxxxxx, as applicable, on his or her own initiative and without any direct solicitation, directly or indirectly, from the Manager or Xxxxxx or any of their respective affiliates or agents as a result of general employment advertising not directed at the business of the Company Group or (ii) soliciting or employing any employee or engaging any independent contractor of the Company Group through any recruiting firm that has not been directed to target, and has not targeted, employees or independent contractor of the Company Group.

iv.

Mutual Non-Disparagement. The Manager and Xxxxxx agrees that during the Term of this Agreement and at all times after the termination thereof (for any reason whatsoever), Xxxxxx shall not make any statements (oral or written), directly or indirectly, to any third party that are disparaging or derogatory toward the Company Group, or the Company Group’s products, services, agents, or employees. During the Term of this Agreement and at all times after the termination thereof (for any reason whatsoever), the Company Group shall direct its directors and officers not to make any statements (oral or written), directly or indirectly, to any third party that are disparaging or derogatory toward the Manager and Xxxxxx. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to prevent any Party from (A) testifying truthfully under oath pursuant to any lawful court order or subpoena, or (B) otherwise responding to or providing disclosures required by law. This includes any statement to or response to an inquiry by any member of the press or media, whether written, verbal, electronic, or otherwise.

The Manager and Xxxxxx agree that during the Term, neither the Manager nor Xxxxxx will undertake any outside activity, whether or not competitive with the business of the Company Group, that could reasonably be expected to give rise to a conflict of interest with the Company Group.

In signing this Agreement, the Manager and Xxxxxx give the Company assurances that they have carefully read and considered all the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including the restraints imposed on them under this Section 5. The Manager and Xxxxxx agree without reservation that these restraints are necessary for the reasonable and proper protection of the Company Group, and that each and every one of the restraints is reasonable in respect to subject matter, length of time and geographic area. The Manager and Xxxxxx further agree that, were they to breach any of the covenants contained in this Section 5, the damage to the Company Group would be irreparable. The Manager and Xxxxxx therefore agree that the Company, in addition to any other remedies available to it, shall be entitled to preliminary

and permanent injunctive relief against any breach or threatened breach by the Manager or Xxxxxx of any of those covenants, without having to post bond. The Parties further agree that in the event of any dispute under this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover its reasonable attorney's fees and costs from the other party; provided, however, that the Company shall not be entitled to recover attorneys' fees to the extent the applicable breach of covenant by the Manager or Xxxxxx contained in Section 5 is capable of being cured without any liability, damage or loss to the Company Group and has been fully cured by the Manager or Xxxxxx within ten (10) business days following written notice from the Company without any such liability, damage or loss to the Company Group. So that the Company may enjoy the full benefit of the covenants contained in this Section 5, the Manager and Xxxxxx further agrees that the Restricted Period shall be tolled, and shall not run, during the period of any breach by the Manager or Xxxxxx of any of the covenants contained in this Section 5. The Parties further agree that, in the event that any provision of this Section 5 is determined by any court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable by reason of its being extended over too great a time, too large a geographic area or too great a range of activities, that provision shall be deemed to be modified to permit its enforcement to the maximum extent permitted by law. It is also agreed that all entities comprising the Company Group shall have the right to enforce all of the Manager's and Xxxxxx'x obligations to that entity under this Agreement, including without limitation pursuant to this Section

5.Finally, no claimed breach of this Agreement or other violation of law attributed to the Company shall operate to excuse the Manager or Xxxxxx from the performance of his or its obligations under this Section 5.

6.Termination of Engagement. During the Initial Term, the Manager’s engagement hereunder shall not be terminated for any reason other than Cause (as defined below) in accordance with Section 6(a) below. During the Extended Term, the Manager's engagement hereunder may be terminated under the following circumstances:

By the Company For Cause. Aphria or the Company may terminate this Agreement for Cause upon written notice to the Manager setting forth in reasonable detail the nature of the Cause. The following shall constitute “Cause” for termination: (i) the Manager’s or Xxxxxx’x willful failure to perform (other than by reason of disability) or refusal to carry out the reasonable and lawful instructions of Aphria’s CEO, consistent with the roles specified above or gross negligence in the performance of Xxxxxx’x duties and responsibilities to the Company Group, which willful failure or gross negligence, to the extent capable of being cured, remains uncured after ten (10) business days’ written notice by Aphria, such notice to specify in reasonable detail the circumstances and manner in which Xxxxxx has willfully failed to perform, or has been grossly negligent, as applicable; (ii) Xxxxxx’x or the Manager’s material breach of this Agreement or any similar agreement between Xxxxxx and the Company Group providing for non-competition and/or non- solicitation covenants in favor of the Company Group which breach, to the extent capable of being cured, remains uncured after ten (10) business days' notice by Aphria, such notice to specify in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances giving rise to and/or the nature of such breach; or (iii) Xxxxxx'x conviction of a felony or any crime committed involving moral turpitude, fraud, embezzlement, or theft. Xxxxxx'x opportunity to cure an event giving rise to Cause for termination shall not apply to any repeated or subsequent similar events, and any such repeated or subsequent event shall be deemed incapable of being cured for purposes of this Section 6(a).

By the Company Without Cause. The Company may terminate the Manager’s engagement at any time without Cause, upon not less than sixty (60) days’ prior written notice to the Manager (the “Termination Without Cause Notice Period”). During the Termination Without Cause Notice Period, the Manager shall cause Xxxxxx to continue to perform such duties and responsibilities as directed by the Company, including but not limited to assisting the Company in the transition of Xxxxxx’x duties and responsibilities.

By the Manager Without Good Reason. The Manager may terminate its engagement hereunder upon sixty (60) days’ notice to Aphria. In the event of such termination, Aphria’s CEO may elect to waive the period of notice, or any portion thereof, and, if the Aphria CEO so elects, the Company will pay the Manager the Management Fee for the period so waived.

By the Manager for Good Reason. The Manager may terminate its engagement hereunder for Good Reason by (a) providing notice to Aphria specifying in reasonable detail the condition giving rise to the Good Reason by no later than the thirtieth (30^th) calendar day following the occurrence of that condition, (b) providing the Company a period of thirty (30) calendar days to remedy the condition and so specifying in the notice and (c) terminating its engagement for Good Reason within thirty (30) calendar days following the expiration of the period to remedy if the Company fails to remedy the condition. The following shall constitute “Good Reason” for termination hereunder:

a material diminution in the nature or scope of the Manager's or Xxxxxx'x duties and responsibilities as set forth under this Agreement;

ii.

a requirement that Xxxxxx be physically present at any particular location in order to perform hereunder;

iii.

any material breach by the Company of its obligations under this Agreement; or

iv.

any reduction in the Management Fee as set forth in Section 4(a) hereof; provided, that the foregoing shall only constitute Good Reason hereunder to the extent any such action was (x) caused by, or taken with the approval, or at the direction, of the Aphria CEO and (y) not consented to by Xxxxxx.

Death and Disability. The Manager's engagement hereunder shall automatically terminate in the event of Xxxxxx'x death. The Company may terminate the Manager's engagement hereunder due to Xxxxxx'x Disability. For purposes of this Agreement, Xxxxxx shall be deemed to have a “Disability” if Xxxxxx is unable to perform the essential functions set forth under this Agreement even with a reasonable accommodation, for any one hundred twenty (120) consecutive days, due to mental or physical disability as determined by a physician mutually selected by the Manager and the Company. If the Manager and the Company cannot agree on the selection of a physician, each of them will select a physician and the two physicians will select a third physician who will determine whether Xxxxxx has a Disability. The determination of the physician selected under this Section 6(d) shall for purposes of this Agreement be

conclusive of the issue. Xxxxxx shall, at the Company's request, submit to a medical examination by such physician in connection with making the determination of Disability under this Section 6(d). If Xxxxxx is determined to have a Disability in accordance with the foregoing, the Company may elect to terminate the Manager' s engagement hereunder by giving a written notice of termination to the Manager and Xxxxxx; provided, however, that the Company may not terminate the Manager's engagement unless, at the time the Company gives such notice of termination, Xxxxxx continues to have a physical or mental disability that, in the opinion of the determining physician, may be expected to prevent Xxxxxx from performing the essential duties under this Agreement for at least an additional sixty (60) days in excess of the one hundred twenty (120) days resulting in his Disability.

7.Other Matters Related to Termination.

Final Compensation. In the event of termination of the Manager's engagement hereunder with the Company, howsoever occurring, the Company shall pay the Manager (i) any earned but unpaid Management Fee through the date of termination; (ii) reimbursement for business expenses incurred by the Manager but not yet paid to the Manager as of the date of termination, provided the Manager submits all expenses and supporting documentation required within 90 days of the date of termination, and provided further that such expenses are reimbursable under this Agreement and any applicable travel and expense policies; and (iii) any accrued but unpaid benefits under Section 4(c) hereof through the date of termination, to the extent such benefits are payable under the terms of the applicable employee benefit plan (all of the foregoing, “Final Compensation”).

Benefits. In the event of any termination of the Manager’s engagement pursuant to Sections 6(b) or 6(d) above, if permitted by applicable law and Xxxxxx elects to continue benefits coverage under COBRA, the Manager shall be entitled to receive cash payments equal to the difference between Xxxxxx’x COBRA continuation coverage premiums and the amount of premiums paid by similarly situated active employees of the Company Group under the Company’s group health plans (the “COBRA Premium Amount”) for the twenty-four (24) month period following termination (the “COBRA Premium Period”); provided, that (i) in the event that the applicable period for COBRA continuation coverage under the Company’s group health plans is shorter than the COBRA Premium Period, the Manager shall remain entitled to receive the COBRA Premium Amount until the expiration of the COBRA Premium Period; (ii) the Manager and Xxxxxx agree to renegotiate this Section 7(b) with the Company in good faith in the event that the provision of the benefits described in this Section 7(b) would be reasonably likely to result in additional tax liability to the Company, the Manager or Xxxxxx; and (iii) the Manager’s eligibility to receive the COBRA Premium Amount under this Section 7(b) shall terminate in the event that Xxxxxx (x) is receiving substantially comparable benefits pursuant to a group health plan available to Xxxxxx’x spouse or (y) becomes employed in a position pursuant to which Xxxxxx is eligible for substantially comparable benefits.

Survival. Sections 5, 7, 8, 9, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16 and 17 of this Agreement shall survive any termination of the Manager's engagement as set forth therein. Upon termination of this

Agreement by either the Manager or the Company as permitted hereby, all rights, duties and obligations of the Manager and the Company to each other pursuant to this Agreement shall cease, except for those provisions hereof that contemplate performance after termination.

8.Timing of Payments and Section 409A.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if at the time the Manager's engagement hereunder terminates, Xxxxxx is deemed to be a "specified employee," as defined below, any and all amounts payable under this Agreement on account of such separation from service that would (but for this provision) be payable within six (6) months following the date of termination, shall instead be paid on the next business day following the expiration of such six (6) month period or, if earlier, upon Xxxxxx'x death; except (A) to the extent of amounts that do not constitute a deferral of compensation within the meaning of Treasury regulation Section 1.409A-l(b) (including without limitation by reason of the safe harbor set forth in Section l.409A-l(b)(9)(iii), as determined by the Company in its reasonable good faith discretion); (B) benefits which qualify as excepted welfare benefits pursuant to Treasury regulation Section l.409A-l(a)(5); or (C) other amounts or benefits that are not subject to the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended ("Section 409A").

WAIVER AGREEMENT

This WAIVER AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into as of [●] by and between SW Brewing Company, LLC (the “Company”), and SWBC Craft, LLC (the “Recipient”).

WHEREAS, reference is made to that certain Agreement of Merger and Acquisition (the “Merger Agreement”), dated as of November 4, 2020, by and among the Company, Aphria Inc., a corporation existing under the Ontario Business Corporations Act (“Parent”), Project Golf Merger Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Merger Sub”), SWBC Craft Holdings LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“Blocker”), SWBC Craft Management, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, SWBC Blocker Seller, LP, a Delaware limited partnership, and Chilly Water, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, pursuant to which, among other things, Parent and the Company desire to cause Merger Sub to merge with and into the Company, with the Company being the surviving limited liability company and becoming an indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent;

WHEREAS, reference is made to that certain Redemption Agreement (the “Redemption Agreement”), dated as of October 21, 2020, by and among the Company and the Recipient, pursuant to which the Company redeemed certain membership interests of the Company held by the Recipient;

WHEREAS, as a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated in the

Merger Agreement (the “Transactions”), the Recipient shall receive substantial consideration;

WHEREAS, all capitalized terms not defined herein shall have such meaning set forth in the Merger Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company and the Recipient, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

1.Effective Upon the Closing Date. This Agreement shall become effective as of, and contingent upon, the Closing. In the event that the Closing does not occur or in the event the Merger Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, this Agreement will automatically be deemed null and void and of no further force and effect.

2.Waiver of Claims.

(a)Effective as of, and contingent upon, the Closing, and in consideration of the Transactions, to the maximum extent permitted by law, the Recipient, on the Recipient’s behalf and on behalf of the Recipient’s heirs, executors, administrators, beneficiaries, representatives, and successors or permitted assigns, hereby voluntarily, knowingly, and willingly waives (the “Waiver”) any and all claims, rights, and obligations of every kind and nature whatsoever which the Recipient and/or the Recipient’s executors, administrators, successors, or assigns ever had in the past, now have, or hereafter can, shall or may have pursuant to Section 5.01 of the Redemption Agreement (collectively, the “Claims”) against the Company and its permitted successors and assigns. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Waiver of Claims shall (i) limit or restrict the Recipient’s claims for any payments due pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, (ii) be construed to prohibit Recipient from bringing appropriate proceedings to enforce this Agreement, or (iii) waive any rights or claims that, pursuant to law, may not be lawfully released and/or waived in a waiver of this kind.

(b)Assuming the payments contemplated under the Merger Agreement are made in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement and the Payment Schedule (as such term is defined in the Merger Agreement), Recipient hereby represents and acknowledges that no further payments are due to the Recipient by the Company in connection with the Redemption Agreement. The Recipient hereby represents and warrants that Recipient has not filed, caused to be filed or permitted to be filed any complaints, charges or lawsuits against the Company in respect of the Claims, and that no such complaints, charges or lawsuits are pending. The Recipient further covenants and agrees that the Recipient will not file, cause to be filed or permit to be filed any Claims, lawsuits, actions, proceedings, complaints, charges, demands, or causes of action at any time hereafter with respect to any Claims waived pursuant to this Agreement.

3.No Oral Modifications. This Agreement may not be amended orally, and may only be amended in a signed writing by both the Recipient and a duly authorized representative of the Company.

4.Assignment. Neither party may assign, delegate or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent signed by a duly authorized representative of the other party; provided, however, that the Company may transfer or assign this Agreement, in whole or in part, to any successor to one or more of its businesses without the prior written consent signed by the Recipient.

5.Binding Effect. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties and their respective successors and assigns; nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer on any person or entity other than the parties and their respective successors and assigns any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement.

6.Severability. In the event that any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement or any other such instrument, and the provision in question is to be modified by the court so as to be rendered enforceable or, if the determination relates to the waiver provisions, the Recipient will be required to enter into an enforceable waiver agreement unless otherwise agreed in writing by the parties.

7.Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the application of any choice- of-law rules that would result in the application of another state’s laws.

8.Waiver of Jury Trial. Each party hereby irrevocably waives their right to a jury for any action, proceeding or counterclaim arising from or relating to this Agreement, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

9.Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

10.Miscellaneous. This Agreement, along with the Redemption Agreement and the Merger Agreement (and the related documents thereto) constitutes the complete, final, and exclusive embodiment of the entire agreement between the Recipient and the Company with regard to this subject matter, and is entered into without reliance on any promise or representation, written or oral, other than those expressly contained herein, and supersedes any other such promises, warranties or representations.
