Section 6.7 Delivery of Schedules and Amendment of Schedules.

On or before February 29, 2012 (the “Disclosure Schedule Deadline”), each party hereto shall deliver to the other party their completed Disclosure Schedule setting forth the exceptions to the representations and warranties set forth in Article IV, Article V and the schedules called for by Article I, Article II and Article VI, as applicable, of this Agreement and supplying the other information required or permitted to be disclosed therein pursuant to other sections of this Agreement.

Neither the entry by Founder into any other agreement, such as this Agreement, after the date hereof for the acquisition of one or more of the companies disclosed on Founder Schedule 5.14 nor the performance by Founder of its obligations thereunder shall be deemed to require the

amendment to or a supplementation of Founder Disclosure Schedule, to breach any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement herein, or to cause the failure of any condition to Closing.

Section 6.13 Section 351 Transaction. The parties intend that, as a result of the status of the Partner Company Subsidiary as a single member limited liability company that is disregarded as an entity separate from its owner for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the acquisition of the Partner Company Subsidiary Interests pursuant to this Agreement will be treated for income tax purposes as a contribution of the assets of the Partner Company Subsidiary to the Founder in exchange for the consideration set forth in Article II in a transaction governed by Section 351 of the Code. Founder will not, and will not cause or permit any of its affiliates to, take or fail to take any action if such action or failure to act would be reasonably expected to cause the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to fail to qualify as an exchange governed by Section 351 of the Code.

Section 6.14 Xxxx Operations.

(a) Prior to the Disclosure Schedule Deadline, Partner Company shall establish Partner Company Subsidiary as a wholly owned subsidiary of Partner Company and shall transfer to Partner Company Subsidiary all of the assets and liabilities of Partner Company, other than those assets and liabilities associated with the Xxxx Operations set forth on Section 6.14(a) to the Partner Company Disclosure Schedule.

(d) Partner Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such consents of third parties as are necessary for the assignment of any material lease, contract, credit agreement or other instrument to which any Subject Partner Company is a party set forth on Section 4.2 or Section 4.36 of Partner Company Disclosure Schedule or any Permit set forth on Section 4.12 of Partner Company Disclosure Schedule. To the extent that any of such material lease, contract, credit agreement or other instrument or Permit is not assignable by the terms thereof or consents to the assignment thereof cannot be obtained as provided herein, such material lease, contract, credit agreement or other instrument or Permit shall be held by Partner Company in trust for Partner Company Subsidiary and shall be utilized by Partner Company Subsidiary in the name of Partner Company and all benefits and obligations derived thereunder shall be for the account of Partner Company Subsidiary; provided, however, that where entitlement of Partner Company Subsidiary to such material lease, contract, credit agreement or other instrument or Permit is not recognized by any third party, Partner Company shall, at the request of Partner Company Subsidiary, enforce in a reasonable manner, at the cost of and for the account of Partner Company Subsidiary, any and all rights of Partner Company against such third party.

-55-

(a) Subject to Section 9.1(b), following the Closing, Founder shall cause to be prepared and Founder or Partner Company, as applicable, shall cause to be timely filed all Tax Returns required to be filed (i) by Partner Company with respect to the Business for any Overlap Period, or (ii) by Partner Company Subsidiary for any Tax period or portion thereof, in each case that are required to be filed after the Effective Time, and, subject to the rights to indemnification from Partner Company Stockholder and Partner Company under Article X, pay or cause to be paid all Taxes shown due thereon.

(b) Partner Company Stockholder shall prepare or cause to be prepared IRS Form 1120-S (and any state law equivalents) for Partner Company (the “PC-SP Tax Returns”), and to the extent permitted by applicable law, Partner Company Stockholder shall include any income, gain, loss, deduction or other Tax items on his/her Tax Returns in a manner consistent with such PC-SP Tax Returns. The PC-SP Tax Returns to the extent relating to the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be prepared in a manner consistent with the past practices of the Partner Company, and Partner Company Stockholder shall provide Founder with a draft of each such PC-SP Tax Returns prepared on a pro forma basis as if the Tax year of Partner Company closed on the Closing Date (the “Pro Forma Returns”) for Founder’s review and comment no later than forty (40) days following the Closing. Upon receipt of such draft Pro Forma Returns, Founder shall have ten (10) days to provide written comments regarding such draft Pro Forma Returns to Partner Company Stockholder. Partner Company Stockholder shall consider in good faith any comments provided by Founder. Within five (5) days following receipt of Founder’s written comments as described above, Partner Company Stockholder shall present to Founder a copy of the final Pro Forma Returns, prepared as reflected in such draft Pro Forma Returns with adjustments, if any, resulting from Founder’s comments, and the Partner Company shall timely file such final PC-SP Tax Returns consistent in all material respects with such Pro Forma Returns with each appropriate Taxing authority.

(c) Fifteen (15) days prior to Closing, Partner Company Stockholder shall cause Partner Company to prepare a draft Schedule K-1 for Partner Company Stockholder that sets out an estimate of Partner Company Stockholder’s net Taxable income and credits for Partner Company’s Taxable period from December 31, 2011 to the Effective Time and shall present such draft Schedule K-1 to Founder along with a schedule setting out the amount of distributions made to Partner Company Stockholder by the Partner Company during the Partner Company’s Taxable period ending on the Closing Date for the specific purpose of funding any Tax payments required to be made by Partner Company Stockholder with respect to his or her allocable share of Partner Company income earned during such Taxable period by the Partner Company. Partner Company shall prepare such draft Schedule K-1 in a manner consistent with Partner Company’s past practices. On the day prior to Closing, Partner Company shall make a distribution to Partner Company Stockholder in an amount equal to Partner Company Stockholder’s Projected K-1 Tax Liability (as defined below). For purposes of this Section 9.1(c), Partner Company Stockholder’s “Projected K-1 Tax Liability” shall be equal to the product of (x) the estimated net Taxable income shown on Partner Company Stockholder’s draft Schedule K-1 described above, multiplied by (y) the Effective Tax Rate (as defined below). For purpose of this Section 9.1(c), the “Effective Tax Rate” shall be 40.0%.

-56-

(d) To ensure that Partner Company Stockholder’s K-1 Tax Liability True Ups (as defined below) can be taken into account (but without duplication) in determining the Adjusted Working Capital (as set out in Section 2.4 above), within five (5) days of Founder’s receipt of the final Pro Forma Returns as described in Section 9.1(b), above, Founder shall determine the amount of Partner Company Stockholder’s K-1 Tax Liability True Up (as defined below) and shall present in writing such determination to Partner Company Stockholder. For purposes of this Section 9.1(d), Partner Company Stockholder’s “K-1 Tax Liability True Up” shall be the difference between Partner Company Stockholder’s Actual K-1 Tax Liability (as defined below) and his Projected K-1 Tax Liability. For purposes of this Section 9.1(d), Partner Company Stockholder’s “Actual K-1 Tax Liability” shall be equal to (A) the product of (x) the net Taxable income shown on Partner Company Stockholder’s Schedule K-1, as set out in the final Pro Forma Returns presented to Founder in Section 9.1(c), above, multiplied by (y) the Effective Tax Rate (as defined in Section 9.1(b) above), less (but without duplication) (B) the amount by which Partner Company Stockholder’s Projected K-1 Tax Liability can be reduced by any Tax credit reported on Partner Company Stockholder’s Schedule K-1 as set out in the final Pro Forma Returns. If Partner Company Stockholder’s K-1 Tax Liability True Up is a positive number, Founder shall pay such amount to Partner Company Stockholder. If Partner Company Stockholder’s K-1 Tax Liability True Up is a negative number, Partner Company Stockholder shall pay such amount to Founder. The payments described in the prior two sentences shall be made within five (5) days after Founder has presented the amount of Partner Company Stockholder’s K-1 Tax Liability True Up to Partner Company Stockholder. Amounts paid to Founder under this Section 9.1(d) shall increase Adjusted Working Capital under Section 2.4, and any amounts paid by Founder under this Section 9.1(d) shall reduce Adjusted Working Capital under Section 2.4.

(e) In the case of any Tax Return prepared by Founder pursuant to Section 9.1(a) above that relates to a Tax period (or portion thereof, including any Overlap Period) ending on or before or including the Effective Time (each a “Reviewable Return”), the Founder shall prepare such Reviewable Return in a manner consistent with the prior practices of the Partner Company to the extent permitted by applicable Tax Law and shall provide Partner Company Stockholder with a copy of such Reviewable Return (together with supporting information, schedules and workpapers) not later than thirty (30) days prior to filing any such Reviewable Return. Upon receipt of such Reviewable Return, Partner Company Stockholder shall have ten (10) days to provide written instructions as to how Partner Company Stockholder wants any, or all, of the items for which Partner Company Stockholder may be liable under this Agreement reflected on such Reviewable Return. Founder shall, in preparing such Reviewable Return, follow the instructions, if any, provided by Partner Company Stockholder unless, in the opinion of the Neutral Accountants, such instructions would result in a position being taken on such Reviewable Return that does not satisfy the “substantial authority” requirement as defined in Treasury Regulation section 1.6662-4(d)(2) (or a comparable provision of state or local Law if applicable).

(f) No later than forty (40) days following the Closing, Partner Company Stockholder shall provide Founder with a draft allocation of the purchase consideration

-57-

(plus any liabilities of the Business transferred to the Partner Company Subsidiary in accordance with Section 6.14 that are properly taken into account as purchase consideration) among the assets of the Partner Company Subsidiary in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 1060 of the Code and the relevant Treasury regulations. Such allocation shall be revised as necessary to take into account any adjustment to the purchase consideration pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Founder shall review such allocation and provide any proposed revisions to Partner Company Stockholder within ten (10) days after receipt of the draft allocation (the “Receipt Date”). Partner Company Stockholder and the Founder shall negotiate in good faith with respect to such proposed revisions and attempt to resolve any differences between the parties. If Partner Company Stockholder and Founder are unable to reach agreement with respect to such allocation within five (5) days after the Receipt Date, and Founder believes that one or more items on the draft allocation proposed by Partner Company Stockholder are unreasonable (such items, the “Disputed Items”), any Disputed Items shall be referred for timely resolution to the Neutral Accountants. The costs of the Neutral Accountants shall be borne by the party that the Neutral Accountants determine has not had the majority of its positions with respect to Disputed Items sustained by the Neutral Accountants. The determination of the Neutral Accountants with respect to the Disputed Items shall be conclusive and binding on Partner Company Stockholder and Founder. The allocation, including all information that has been agreed to or finally determined by the Neutral Accountants pursuant to this Section 9.1(f), shall be referred to as the “Final Allocation.” Each of Partner Company Stockholder, Founder and their respective affiliates shall prepare and file all Tax Returns consistent with, and shall not take any Tax position inconsistent with, the Final Allocation.

Section 9.2 Transfer Taxes

(a) Partner Company Stockholder shall be liable for and shall pay (and shall indemnify and hold harmless the Founder Indemnified Parties against) all sales, use, stamp, documentary, filing, recording, transfer, real property transfer, stock transfer, gains or similar fees or Taxes or governmental charges as levied by any Governmental Authority including any interest and penalties (“Transfer Taxes”) in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The party required by applicable law to do so shall file all necessary documentation and Tax Returns with respect to such Transfer Taxes. In addition, Partner Company Stockholder acknowledge that he/she, and not Partner Company or Founder, will pay all Taxes due upon receipt of the consideration payable pursuant to Article II, and will assume all Tax risks associated with the consummation of the Transaction and the transfer contemplated by Section 6.14(a), other than as may result from any breach by Founder or its affiliates of the terms of this Agreement. Founder and the Partner Company agree, upon request by Partner Company Stockholder, to use their reasonable best efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any Governmental Authority or any other person and to use commercially reasonable efforts to take such other actions as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any Transfer Tax that could be imposed with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby.

-58-

Section 9.3 Other Tax Covenants

(a) In the case of any Overlap Period, the amount of any Taxes of the Partner Company or the Partner Company Subsidiary, as applicable, based upon or measured by net income or gross receipts which related to the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be determined based on an interim closing of the books of the Partner Company or the Partner Company Subsidiary, as applicable, as of the Effective Time (and for such purpose, the Taxable period of any partnership or other pass-through entity in which the Partner Company holds a beneficial interest shall be deemed to terminate at such time); provided, that exemptions, allowances or deductions that are calculated on an annual basis (including depreciation and amortization deductions) other than with respect to property placed in service in the Partner Company Subsidiary after the Closing, shall be allocated on a daily basis. The amount of Taxes other than Taxes of the Partner Company or the Partner Company Subsidiary, as applicable, based upon or measured by net income or gross receipts for an Overlap Period which relate to the Pre-Closing Tax Period will be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire Taxable period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the portion of the Taxable period ending at the Effective Time and the denominator of which is the number of days in such Overlap Period.

(b) Any Tax refund, credit or similar benefit of any Subject Partner Company relating to Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be for the benefit and the property of Partner Company Stockholder, except to the extent that such refund, credit or similar benefit was reflected in Other Current Assets in the calculation of Adjusted Working Capital, and if realized after the Effective Time by Founder or the Partner Company (or any of their affiliates), shall be paid over promptly to Partner Company Stockholder within ten (10) days after realization thereof. Any Tax refund, credit or similar benefit relating to the Business for any Overlap Period shall be attributed to the Pre-Closing Tax Period and/or the Post-Closing Tax Period based upon the method employed in Section 9.3(a).

(c) Founder, Partner Company, Partner Company Subsidiary and Partner Company Stockholder shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by any other party hereto, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns pursuant to this Article IX and any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes of, or attributable to, the Partner Company or the Partner Company Subsidiary. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon any other party’s request) the provision of records and information that are reasonably relevant to any such audit, litigation or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. Founder, Partner Company, Partner Company Subsidiary and Partner Company Stockholder agree (i) to retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Partner Company or the Partner Company Subsidiary relating to any Tax period or portion thereof beginning on or before the Closing Date and ending on the Closing Date until the expiration of the statute of limitations (and, to the extent notified by or on behalf of the Partner Company, Partner Company Subsidiary or Partner Company Stockholder, any extensions thereof) of the respective Tax periods, and to abide by all record retention

-59-

agreements entered into with any Governmental Authority, and (ii) to give each other party reasonable written notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any such books and records and, if any other party so requests, the Partner Company, Partner Company Subsidiary or Partner Company Stockholder, as the case may be, shall allow such other party to take possession of such books and records.

(d) Any Tax-sharing agreements or similar agreements with respect to or involving the Partner Company Subsidiary shall be terminated as of the Closing Date and, after the Closing Date, the Partner Company Subsidiary shall not be bound thereby or have any liability thereunder.

(e) Unless otherwise required by a taxing authority, (i) neither Founder nor any of its affiliates shall make or change, or permit Partner Company Subsidiary to make or change, any Tax election, amend any Tax Return, take any action or enter into any transaction, in each case after the Effective Time, that results in any increased Tax liability of Partner Company Stockholder, or that increases the indemnification obligation of Partner Company Stockholder under this Agreement, and (ii) neither Founder nor any of its affiliates shall or shall cause or permit the Partner Company Subsidiary to file an amended Tax Return with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period without obtaining the prior written consent of Partner Company Stockholder, which consent may be withheld by Partner Company Stockholder in his or her sole and absolute discretion.

Section 9.4 Preservation of Employee Benefit Plans.

Following the Closing Date, Founder shall not terminate any health insurance, life insurance or 401(k) plan in effect for the Partner Company Subsidiary until such time as Founder is able to replace such plan with a plan that is applicable to Founder and all of its then existing subsidiaries; provided that Founder shall have no obligation to provide replacement plans that have the same terms and provisions as the existing plans; provided, further, that any new health insurance plan shall provide for coverage for preexisting conditions. On the Closing Date, the employees of the Partner Company Subsidiary will continue as employees of such Partner Company Subsidiary (provided that this provision shall not in any way limit the management rights of Founder to assess workforce needs of the Partner Company Subsidiary and make appropriate adjustments as necessary or desirable within its discretion subject to applicable laws and collective bargaining agreements).

ARTICLE X.

SURVIVAL; INDEMNIFICATION

Section 10.1 Survival.

Except as expressly set forth in this Section 10.1, the representations and warranties of the parties hereto contained in this Agreement or any other agreement or certificate delivered at the Closing shall survive only until the earlier of (i) April 15, 2014 and (ii) close of business on the fifteenth business day following the filing of Founder’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 with the SEC, except for the representations and warranties contained in Section 4.25 and Section 5.12 relating to Taxes, which shall survive 90 days beyond

-60-

the applicable statute of limitations. The covenants and agreements of the parties contained in this Agreement or any other agreement or certificate delivered at the Closing shall survive the Closing and shall remain in full force and effect until fully performed. The parties to this Agreement expressly agree that no Subject Partner Company shall have any liability, whether direct or indirect, after the Closing for (a) any breach of a representation and warranty of Partner Company or Partner Company Stockholder contained in this Agreement or any other document delivered by any of them at the Closing or (b) the failure to observe or perform any covenant or agreement of Partner Company or Partner Company Stockholder set forth herein or therein.

Section 10.2 Indemnification.

(a) Indemnification by Partner Company Stockholder and Partner Company. Each of Partner Company Stockholder and Partner Company hereby, jointly and severally, agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Founder, the Partner Company Subsidiary and their respective affiliates, officers, directors, shareholders, partners, agents, managers, employees, successors and assigns (collectively, “Founder Indemnified Parties”) harmless from any and all Indemnifiable Damages which any such person may suffer or incur after the Closing by reason of:

(i) the breach of any of the representations or warranties made by Partner Company or Partner Company Stockholder in this Agreement or any of the other agreements or certificates delivered by Partner Company or Partner Company Stockholder pursuant hereto (disregarding for the purpose of determining Indemnifiable Damages any materiality standards, material adverse effect limitations or minimum monetary exceptions); and

(ii) the breach of any of the covenants or agreements made by Partner Company or Partner Company Stockholder in this Agreement or any of the other agreements or certificates delivered by Partner Company or Partner Company Stockholder pursuant hereto.

(b) Indemnification by Founder. Founder hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Partner Company and Partner Company Stockholder and their respective and their respective affiliates, officers, directors, shareholders, partners, agents, managers, employees, successors and assigns (collectively, “Partner Company Stockholder Indemnified Parties”), harmless from any and all Indemnifiable Damages which any such person may suffer or incur after the Closing by reason of:

(i) the breach of any of the representations and warranties made by Founder in this Agreement or any of the other agreements or certificates delivered by Founder pursuant hereto (disregarding for this purpose any materiality standards, material adverse effect limitations or minimum monetary exceptions); and

(ii) the breach of any of the covenants or agreements made by Founder in this Agreement or any of the other agreements or certificates delivered by Founder pursuant hereto.

-61-

(c) Third-Party Claims. If any claim or demand is asserted against an indemnified party by a third party with respect to any matter under the indemnities set forth in Section 10.2(a) or Section 10.2(b) (a “Third Party Claim”), the indemnified party shall promptly give written notice and details thereof (the “Claim Notice”), including copies of all pleadings and the pertinent documents, to the indemnifying party, as the case may be (“Indemnitor”); provided, however that the failure to provide such notice shall not release the Indemnitor from any of its obligations under this Article X except to the extent that the Indemnitor is materially prejudiced by such failure.

(i) To the extent that any Third Party Claim is for money damages, then the Indemnitor shall have the right, exercisable upon written notice given within 20 days after receipt of the Claim Notice, to conduct and control, through counsel of its choosing, reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, the defense, compromise or settlement of any such Third Party Claim as to which indemnification will be sought by any indemnified party from any Indemnitor hereunder, and in any such case the indemnified party shall cooperate in connection therewith and shall furnish such records, information and testimony and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals as may be reasonably requested by the Indemnitor in connection therewith at the Indemnitor’s expense; provided, that the indemnified party shall have the right to participate in such defense with separate counsel at its own expense; provided further that the Indemnitor shall pay the fees and disbursements of such separate counsel if the defendants in such Third Party Claim include both the Indemnitor and an indemnified party and such indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded upon the advice of counsel, that there exists one or more good faith defenses that may be available to such indemnified party that are in conflict with those available to the Indemnitor or that the Indemnitor and such indemnified party have actual material conflicting interests with respect to such Third Party Claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Indemnitors be liable for fees and expenses of more than one counsel separate from their own for all indemnified parties in connection with any one action or separate but similar actions arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances. The Indemnitor shall not compromise or settle any Third Party Claim without the written consent of the indemnified party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld).

(ii) If the Indemnitor does not assume control of the defense of a Third Party Claim pursuant to clause (i) above, then the indemnified party shall have the right to pay, compromise or defend any Third Party Claim and to assert the amount of any payment on the Third Party Claim plus the expense of defense or settlement as an indemnity claim. The indemnified party shall also have the right, exercisable in good faith, to take such action as may be necessary to avoid a default judgment prior to the assumption of the defense of any Third Party Claim by the Indemnitor and any expenses incurred by so acting shall be paid by the Indemnitor; provided that such Third Party Claim is a proper claim for indemnification hereunder.

-62-

(d) Claims Procedure. If an indemnified party is of the opinion that he, she or it has or may acquire a right to indemnification under this Section 10.2 (each, an “Indemnification Claim”), such indemnified party shall so notify the Indemnitor in a written notice (each such notice and including a Claim Notice under Section 10.2(c), an “Indemnification Claim Certificate”) (i) stating that such indemnified party has directly or indirectly paid, sustained or incurred Damages, or reasonably anticipates that he, she or it will directly or indirectly pay, sustain or incur any Damages, (ii) specifying in reasonable detail the individual items of Damages included in the amount so stated (and the method of computation of each such item of Damages; if applicable), the date each such item of Damages was paid, sustained or incurred, or the basis for such reasonably anticipated Damages, (iii) a brief description in reasonable detail (to the extent available to such indemnified party) of the facts, circumstances or events giving rise to each item of Damages based on such indemnified party’s good faith belief thereof, and (iv) the basis for indemnification under Section 10.2 to which such item of Damages is related (including, if applicable, the specific nature of the misrepresentation, or the breach of warranty or covenant). If the Indemnitor does not object in writing to the indemnified party within thirty (30) days after Indemnitor’s receipt of such Indemnification Claim Certificate, the Indemnitor shall be conclusively deemed to have acknowledged and irrevocably consented to and agreed with the indemnified party’s recovery of the full amount of all such items of Damages set forth in such Indemnification Claim Certificate. In the event that the Indemnitor, within thirty (30) days after receipt of such Indemnification Claim Certificate, objects in writing to any or all of the Damages set forth in the Indemnification Claim Certificate, the Indemnitor and the indemnified party shall attempt in good faith to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to the disputed items of Damages. If the parties should so agree, a memorandum setting forth the agreement reached by the parties with respect to such disputed items of Damages shall be prepared and signed by both parties. If within sixty (60) days after the Indemnitor’s receipt of such Indemnification Claim Certificate, and after good faith negotiations, the parties are unable to agree on the rights of the respective parties with respect to any disputed items of Damages set forth in an Indemnification Claim Certificate, the indemnified party shall be entitled to exercise all legal remedies available to it under this Agreement.

(e) Access and Information. With respect to any claim for indemnification hereunder, the indemnified party will give to the Indemnitor and its counsel, accountants and other representatives full and free reasonable access, during normal business hours and upon the giving of reasonable prior notice, to its books and records relating to such claims, and to its employees, accountants, counsel and other representatives to the extent reasonably necessary in connection with defending such claims, all without charge to the Indemnitor, except for reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses. If a claim for indemnification is made hereunder, the indemnified party agrees to maintain any of its books and records then in its possession which may relate to such claim for such period of time as may be necessary to enable the Indemnitor to resolve such claim.

-63-

(f) Monetary Limitations on Indemnification.

(i) Partner Company Stockholder and Partner Company shall not be obligated hereunder to indemnify any Founder Indemnified Parties with respect to any Indemnifiable Damages as to which such persons are otherwise entitled to indemnification under this Agreement based on a breach of a representation or warranty unless and until the aggregate amount of Indemnifiable Damages exceeds an amount equal to the Basket Amount.

(ii) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (x) the maximum aggregate obligation of Partner Company Stockholder and Partner Company pursuant to Section 10.2(a)(i) shall not exceed an amount equal to thirty percent (30%) of the Agreed Value received by Partner Company Stockholder at the Closing; provided that such limitations shall not apply to the representations and warranties set forth in Section 4.25.

(iii) The liability of either Partner Company Stockholder and Partner Company, on the one hand, or Founder, on the other hand, under this Section 10.2 shall: (x) be offset dollar for dollar by any recovery actually made by Founder Indemnified Parties or Partner Company Stockholder Indemnified Parties, as the case may be, from any unaffiliated third party (including insurers) on account of the item of Indemnifiable Damages involved (and no right of subrogation shall accrue to any such third party); and (y) be net of any Tax benefit inuring to the indemnified party therefrom and realized in the Taxable year in which the Indemnifiable Damages were incurred, in the next succeeding year or any prior year. The parties hereto agree to pursue diligently and in good faith any recovery from any such third party with respect to any item of Indemnifiable Damages involved, but payments for Indemnifiable Damages shall not be postponed pending any such receipts or recoveries. Any such receipts or recoveries received by an indemnified party after a payment for Indemnifiable Damages shall be promptly paid over to the Indemnitor in an amount not to exceed the amount paid by the Indemnitor to the indemnified party with respect to such item of Indemnifiable Damages.

(iv) In lieu of paying all or any portion of any amounts owed by Partner Company to Founder in connection with the indemnification obligations set forth in Section 10.2(a)(i), Partner Company may elect to transfer to Founder, and Founder shall accept the transfer of, shares of Founder Stock. In the event of such election, the amount of Partner Company’s liability to Founder shall be reduced by an amount equal to (x) the number of shares of Founder Stock transferred by Partner Company to Founder multiplied by (y) the average of the daily volume-weighted average prices of the Founder Stock on the New York Stock Exchange for the twenty consecutive trading days prior to and including the second trading day prior to the effective time of such transfer.

(g) Other Limitations on Indemnification. IN NO EVENT SHALL PARTNER COMPANY STOCKHOLDER OR PARTNER COMPANY BE LIABLE

-64-

TO THE FOUNDER INDEMNIFIED PARTIES FOR PUNITIVE DAMAGES AND IN NO EVENT SHALL FOUNDER BE LIABLE TO PARTNER COMPANY STOCKHOLDER INDEMNIFIED PARTIES FOR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, PROVIDED, THAT THESE LIMITATIONS SHALL NOT APPLY TO PUNITIVE DAMAGES PAYABLE TO A THIRD PARTY IN RESPECT OF A THIRD PARTY CLAIM.

(h) Consistency of Indemnification. Founder hereby represents and warrants that all equityholders of the Combining Partner Companies are subject to substantially similar indemnification provisions and no such Person has any better terms in the acquisition agreement relating such Person’s Combining Partner Company regarding (i) the survival period of representations and warranties, or (ii) the maximum liability of such Person as set forth in Section 10.2(f)(ii) of this Agreement, including that such limitation only applies to indemnification arising under Section 10.2(a)(i) (the “Key Indemnification Provisions”). If any such Person is subject to Key Indemnification Provisions which are more favorable to such Person than those set forth in this Agreement, this Agreement shall be promptly amended so that Partner Company is subject to the more favorable provisions.

Section 10.3 Arbitration.

All controversies and claims arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the breach hereof shall be settled exclusively by arbitration under the auspices of the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services/Endispute (“JAMS”) in accordance with JAMS commercial rules of arbitration, incorporated herein by reference, by a single neutral arbitrator to be chosen in accordance with the procedures of JAMS. The arbitration proceeding shall be conducted in Houston, Texas. The parties acknowledge that this Agreement evidences a transaction involving interstate commerce and the arbitration shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16 (1999). The arbitrator, who shall be mutually agreeable to the parties to this Agreement that are parties to the arbitration (each a “Joined Party”), shall have the authority to award any remedy or relief that a court of competent jurisdiction could order or grant, including the issuance of an injunction. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered by any court having jurisdiction thereof. However, a party to this Agreement may, without inconsistency with this arbitration provision, apply to any court having jurisdiction and seek an order (a) compelling arbitration as to the other parties if such other parties refuse to comply with the terms of this Agreement, (b) requiring witnesses to obey subpoenas, (c) preserving the status quo or evidence in anticipation of arbitration, in each case prior to the appointment of the arbitrator, or (d) securing a temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction pursuant to Section 12.1 or Section 13.1 of this Agreement. Except as necessary in court proceedings to enforce this arbitration provision or an award rendered hereunder, or to obtain interim relief, or as may be required by applicable law or regulation, including applicable securities laws or regulations of an established national securities exchange on which securities of either Founder or its successors or assigns are traded, neither a party to this Agreement nor an arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration hereunder to any other third party other than its attorneys and auditors without the prior written consent of Founder, Partner Company (prior to the consummation of the Transaction) and all other Joined Parties.

-65-

Section 10.4 Exclusive Remedy.

(a) Exclusivity. Each of the parties to this Agreement hereby acknowledges and agrees that following the Closing its sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims relating to the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article X, provided that a party may exercise any and all remedies it may have at law or in equity in the event of a breach by another party of its payment obligations established pursuant to Section 10.2 or Section 10.3 or in the event of fraud.

(b) Specific Performance. Notwithstanding the foregoing subsection (a), nothing contained in this Section 10.4 shall prevent one party hereto from seeking and obtaining specific performance by another party hereto of any of its obligations under this Agreement as provided in Section 17.12 or from seeking and obtaining injunctive relief against the other party’s activities in breach of this Agreement.

Section 10.5 Adjustment to Purchase Price.

Any payment by Founder under this Article X, to the extent such payment can be properly so characterized under applicable Tax law, shall be treated by the parties as an adjustment to the consideration paid for the Partner Company Subsidiary Interests.

Section 10.6 Continuing Indemnification of Directors and Others.

From and until the sixth anniversary of the Closing Date, Founder shall cause each Subject Partner Company to honor both the indemnity agreements to which it is party as listed in Section 10.6 of Partner Company Disclosure Schedule and the provisions in its Charter Documents and Bylaws, in the forms delivered to Founder pursuant to this Agreement at the Closing (the “E&I Provisions”), relating to the exculpation or indemnification of officers, directors, employees or agents who held any such position on or prior to the Closing Date (collectively, the “E&I Indemnitees”), it being the intent of the parties that the E&I Indemnitees who held any such position on or prior to the Closing Date shall continue to be entitled to the benefit of the E&I Provisions with respect to all periods through the Closing Date to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

Section 10.7 No Release.

Nothing in this Agreement is intended to, shall be construed to, or shall release, waive or impair any rights to directors’ and officers’ insurance claims under any policy that is or has been in existence with respect to any Subject Partner Company or any of its E&I Indemnitees, it being understood and agreed that the indemnification provided for in Section 10.6 is not prior to or in substitution for any such claims under such policies.

This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to Closing by:

(a) the mutual consent of the parties to this Agreement;

(b) either Founder or Partner Company if the Closing has not occurred by the close of business on November 30, 2012, so long as the failure to close on or before such date did not result solely from the failure by the party seeking termination of this Agreement to fulfill any undertaking or commitment on its part provided for in this Agreement;

(c) Founder within ten (10) days of its receipt of a Disclosure Schedule Amendment Notice from Partner Company or Partner Company Stockholder that constitutes or reflects an event or occurrence that, either alone or together with all prior events or occurrences set forth in a Disclosure Schedule Amendment Notice, (i) constitutes a Partner Company Material Adverse Effect or (ii) if the Partner Company Disclosure Schedule were not amended in accordance therewith, would cause the failure of a condition to Closing;

(d) Partner Company within ten (10) days of its receipt of a Disclosure Schedule Amendment Notice from Founder that constitutes or reflects an event or occurrence that, either alone or together with all prior events or occurrences set forth in a Disclosure Schedule Amendment Notice, (i) constitutes a Founder Material Adverse Effect or (ii) if the Founder Disclosure Schedule were not amended in accordance therewith, would cause the failure of a condition to Closing;

(e) By Partner Company if it delivered the Partner Company Disclosure Schedule to Founder but Founder does not accept the Parent Company Disclosure Schedule, or Founder and Partner Company are unable to agree upon mutually acceptable changes to the Partner Company Disclosure Schedule, with ten (10) days after the Disclosure Schedule Deadline;

(f) By Founder if it delivered the Founder Disclosure Schedule to Partner Company but Partner Company does not accept the Founder Company Disclosure Schedule, or Founder and Partner Company are unable to agree upon mutually acceptable changes to the Founder Company Disclosure Schedule, within ten (10) days after the Disclosure Schedule Deadline;

(g) by Partner Company, if it is not then in material breach of a representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement, provided Founder is in material breach of a representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement and has failed to cure such breach within 30 days after receipt of notice from Partner Company Stockholder requesting such breach be cured;

Section 11.3 Wrongful Termination.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if a party wrongfully terminates this Agreement, that party shall be liable for any Indemnifiable Damages caused thereby.

ARTICLE XII.

NONCOMPETITION

Section 12.1 Prohibited Activities.

Neither Partner Company Stockholder nor Partner Company will, for a period of five (5) years following the Closing Date, for any reason whatsoever, directly or indirectly, for itself, or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other person:

(a) work for, solicit, or accept business, in each case in a manner competitive with the Business, from customers of Founder or any Combining Partner

-68-

Company with whom Partner Company Stockholder or Partner Company had personal contact at any time within the twenty-four (24) months immediately preceding the Closing Date; or

(b) induce or attempt to induce, or to cause any person or other entity to induce, any person who is an employee of, or consultant to, Founder or any Combining Partner Company to leave the employ or service of Founder or such Combining Partner Company during the five (5) years commencing on the Closing Date.

Each of Partner Company Stockholder and Partner Company understands that the foregoing restrictions may limit its ability to earn a livelihood or conduct its operations, as the case may be, in a business similar to the Business of Founder and the Combining Partner Companies, but it nevertheless believes that it has received and will receive sufficient consideration and other benefits as provided hereunder to clearly justify such restrictions. Each of Partner Company Stockholder and Partner Company further understands that (i) Founder would not consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement but for the covenants contained in this Article XII, and (ii) the provisions of this Article XII are reasonable and necessary to preserve the Business and goodwill of Founder and the Combining Partner Companies.

Section 12.2 Damages.

Because of the difficulty of measuring economic losses to Founder as a result of a breach of the foregoing covenant, and because of the immediate and irreparable damage that could be caused to Founder for which it would have no other adequate remedy, each of Partner Company Stockholder and Partner Company agrees that the foregoing covenant may be enforced by Founder in the event of breach by Partner Company Stockholder or Partner Company, by injunction and restraining order, without the necessity of posting a bond. In the event of a breach of this Article XII by Partner Company Stockholder or Partner Company, the breaching party shall be obligated to pay all costs and expenses of Founder in enforcing its rights hereunder, including reasonable attorney’s fees and associated costs.

Section 12.3 Reasonable Restraint.

It is agreed by the parties hereto that the foregoing covenants in this Article XII impose a reasonable restraint on Partner Company Stockholder and Partner Company in light of the activities and business of Founder and the Combining Partner Companies on the date of the execution of this Agreement and the reasonably foreseeable plans of Founder, and the five-year (5) period set forth above is agreed by the parties hereto to be the minimum reasonable period of time to protect Founder from appropriation of customer goodwill

Section 12.4 Severability, Reformation.

The covenants in this Article XII are severable and separate, and the unenforceability of any specific covenant shall not affect the provisions of any other covenant. Moreover, in the event any arbitration or judicial proceeding shall determine that the scope, time or territorial restrictions set forth are unreasonable, then it is the intention of the parties that such restrictions be enforced to the fullest extent the arbitrator or court deems reasonable, and the Agreement shall thereupon be automatically reformed.

-69-

Section 12.5 Independent Covenant.

All of the covenants in this Article XII shall be construed as an agreement independent of any other provision in this Agreement, and the existence of any claim or cause of action of Partner Company Stockholder or Partner Company against Founder or one of the Combining Partner Companies, whether predicated on this Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by Founder of such covenants. It is specifically agreed that the five-year (5) period stated at the beginning of this Article XII, during which the agreements and covenants of Partner Company Stockholder and Partner Company made in this Article XII shall be effective, shall be computed by excluding from such computation any time during which Partner Company Stockholder or Partner Company is in violation of any provision of this Article XII. The covenants contained in this Article XII shall not be affected by any breach of any other provision hereof by any party hereto and shall become null and void if the Transaction is not consummated.

ARTICLE XIII.

NONDISCLOSURE OF CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION

Section 13.1 Partner Company Stockholder and Partner Company.

Each of Partner Company Stockholder and Partner Company recognizes and acknowledges that it had in the past, currently has, and in the future may have, access to certain confidential information of the Partner Company Subsidiary and/or Founder (including Initial Founder and the other Combining Partner Companies) including operational policies, Proprietary Assets and pricing and cost policies that are valuable, special and unique assets of Partner Company Subsidiary and/or Founder (including the other Combining Partner Companies). Each of Partner Company Stockholder and Partner Company agrees that it will not disclose such confidential information to any person for any purpose or reason whatsoever, except (a) to authorized representatives of Founder; (b) following the Closing, such information may be disclosed by Partner Company Stockholder as is required in the course of performing his duties for Founder (including the other Combining Partner Companies); and (c) to counsel and other advisers; provided that such advisers (other than counsel) agree to the confidentiality provisions of this Section 13.1, unless (i) such information becomes known to the public generally through no fault of Partner Company Stockholder or Partner Company, (ii) disclosure is required by law or the order of any Government Authority under color of law; provided, that prior to disclosing any information pursuant to this clause (ii), Partner Company Stockholder or Partner Company, as the case may be, shall give prior written notice thereof to Founder and provide Founder with the opportunity to contest such disclosure, or (iii) the disclosing party reasonably believes that such disclosure is required in connection with the defense of a lawsuit against the disclosing party. In the event of a breach or threatened breach by Partner Company Stockholder or Partner Company of the provisions of this Section 13.1, Founder shall be entitled to an injunction restraining Partner Company Stockholder or Partner Company, as the case may be, from disclosing, in whole or in part, such confidential information. Nothing herein shall be construed as prohibiting Founder from pursuing any other available remedy for such breach or threatened

-70-

breach, including the recovery of damages. In the event the Transaction is not consummated, the abovementioned restrictions on Partner Company Stockholder’s and Partner Company’s ability to disseminate confidential information with respect to Partner Company Subsidiary (but not Founder or the other Combining Partner Companies) shall become null and void. Upon termination of this Agreement, Partner Company Stockholder and each Subject Partner Company shall promptly return to Founder all copies, whether in written, electronic or other form of media, of such confidential information, or destroy all such copies and certify in writing to Founder that such confidential information has been destroyed.

Section 13.2 Founder.

Founder recognizes and acknowledges that it has in the past and currently has access to certain confidential information of each Subject Partner Company, including operational policies, Proprietary Assets and pricing and cost policies that are valuable, special and unique assets of each Subject Partner Company. Founder agrees that, prior to the Closing, or if the Transaction is not consummated, it will not disclose such confidential information to any person except (a) to authorized representatives of each Subject Partner Company; and (b) to counsel and other advisers; provided that such advisers (other than counsel) agree to the confidentiality provisions of this Section 13.2, unless (i) such information becomes known to the public generally through no fault of Founder, (ii) disclosure is necessary in the Registration Statement, (iii) disclosure is required by law or the order of any Government Authority under color of law; provided, that prior to disclosing any information pursuant to this clause (iii), Founder shall, if possible, give prior written notice thereof to Partner Company and provide Partner Company with the opportunity to contest such disclosure, or (iv) the disclosing party reasonably believes that such disclosure is required in connection with the defense of a lawsuit against the disclosing party. In the event of a breach or threatened breach by Founder of the provisions of this Section 13.2, Partner Company shall be entitled to an injunction restraining Founder from disclosing, in whole or in part, such confidential information. Nothing herein shall be construed as prohibiting Partner Company from pursuing any other available remedy for such breach or threatened breach, including the recovery of damages. Upon termination of this Agreement, Founder shall promptly return to Partner Company Stockholder all copies, whether in written, electronic or other form of media, of such confidential information, or destroy all such copies and certify in writing to Partner Company Stockholder that such confidential information has been destroyed.

Section 13.3 Damages.

Because of the difficulty of measuring economic losses as a result of the breach of the foregoing covenants in Section 13.1 and Section 13.2 and because of the immediate and irreparable damage that would be caused for which no other adequate remedy exists, the parties hereto agree that, in the event of a breach by any of them of the foregoing covenants, the covenant may be enforced against the other parties by injunction and restraining order, without the necessity of posting a bond.

Section 13.4 Survival.

ARTICLE XIV.

TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS

Except for transfers to Partner Company Stockholder and his immediate family members where Partner Company Stockholder and such family members agree to be bound by the restrictions set forth in this Article XIV (or trusts for the benefit of Partner Company Stockholder or immediate family members, the trustees of which so agree), for a period of one year from the Closing, except pursuant to Article XIV, Partner Company shall not sell, assign, exchange, transfer, encumber, pledge, distribute, appoint, or otherwise dispose of any Founder Stock received by Partner Company upon consummation of the Transaction. Founder hereby represents and warrants that each Person of the Combining Partner Companies that is receiving Founder Stock is subject to a substantially similar provision restricting transfers of Founder Stock for a period of one year from the Closing. If any Person receiving Founder Stock is subject to a restriction on transfers for a period less than one year from the Closing, this Agreement shall be promptly amended so that Partner Company is not subject to any restriction on transfer for a period that is longer than any Person of the Combining Partner Companies receiving Founder Stock and in the event that any such restrictions are waived with respect to any Person, Partner Company shall be notified in writing no later than three (3) business days prior to the date of such waiver and such restrictions shall be proportionately waived with respect to the Founder Stock held by the Partner Company.

ARTICLE XV.

INVESTMENT REPRESENTATIONS

Partner Company acknowledges that the shares of Founder Stock and other securities, if any, to be delivered to it pursuant to this Agreement, including the Earnout Stock, if any (collectively, the “Restricted Securities”), have not been and will not be registered under the 1933 Act or any state securities law and therefore may not be resold without compliance with the requirements of the 1933 Act and applicable state securities law. Partner Company represents that all of the Restricted Securities are being acquired by Partner Company solely for its own account, for investment purposes only, and with no present intention of distributing, selling or otherwise disposing of such securities in connection with a distribution.

-72-

Section 15.1 Compliance With Law.

Partner Company represents, warrants, covenants and agrees that none of the Restricted Securities will be offered, sold, assigned, exchanged, transferred, encumbered, distributed, appointed or otherwise disposed of except after full compliance with all of the applicable provisions of the 1933 Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder and the provisions of applicable state securities laws and regulations. All the Restricted Securities shall bear the following legend in addition to the legend required under Section 14.1:

THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 (THE “ACT”) OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY ONLY BE SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IF THE HOLDER HEREOF COMPLIES WITH THE ACT AND ALL APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

Section 15.2 Economic Risk, Sophistication.

Partner Company represents and warrants that (a) it is an accredited investor or has qualified as a sophisticated investor through a purchaser representative, each as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated by the SEC pursuant to the 1933 Act and (b) it is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Restricted Securities and can afford to sustain a total loss of such investment and has, either directly or through a purchaser representative, such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the proposed investment in Founder. Partner Company acknowledges that it has had an adequate opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the officers of Founder concerning any and all matters relating to the transactions described herein including the background and experience of the currently proposed officers and directors of Founder, the plans for the operations of the business of Founder and the Combining Partner Companies and any plans for additional acquisitions and the like. Partner Company has asked any and all questions in the nature described in the preceding sentence and all questions have been answered to Partner Company’s satisfaction.

ARTICLE XVI.

REGISTRATION RIGHTS

Section 16.1 PiggyBack Registration Rights.

At any time after the twelfth monthly anniversary of the Closing Date, whenever Founder proposes to register any Founder Stock for its own or the account of others under the 1933 Act for a public offering, other than (a) any shelf registration statement, (b) any registration of shares to be used as consideration for acquisitions of additional businesses by Founder and (c) any registrations relating to employee benefit plans, Founder shall give Partner Company or its permitted transferees pursuant to the first sentence of Article XIV prompt written notice of its intent to do so. Upon the written request of Partner Company given within five business days after receipt of such notice, Founder shall cause to be included in such registration all Registerable Securities (including any shares of Founder Stock issued as a dividend or other

-73-

distribution with respect to, or in exchange for, or in replacement of such Registerable Securities) which Partner Company or its permitted transferees pursuant to the first sentence of Article XIV requests; provided, however, if Founder is advised in good faith by any managing underwriter of an underwritten offering of the securities being offered pursuant to any registration statement under this Section 16.1 that the number of shares to be sold by persons other than Founder is greater than the number of such shares which can be offered without adversely affecting the offering, Founder may reduce pro rata the number of shares offered for the accounts of such persons (based upon the number of shares held by each such person) to a number deemed satisfactory by such managing underwriter.

Section 16.2 Demand Registration Rights.

(a) At any time after the twelfth monthly anniversary of the Closing Date, the holders (“Combining Partner Company Stockholders”) of a majority of the shares of Founder Stock (a) representing Registerable Securities owned by Partner Company or its permitted transferees pursuant to the first sentence of Article XIV and (b) acquired by other stockholders of Founder on or prior to the closing of the IPO in connection with the acquisition of their companies by Founder pursuant to an agreement similar to this Agreement, which shares have not been previously registered or sold and which shares are not entitled to be sold under Rule 144 (or any similar or successor provision) promulgated under the 1933 Act without regard to manner of sale or volume limitations may request in writing that Founder file a registration statement under the 1933 Act covering the registration of the shares of Founder Stock issued to and held by the Combining Partner Company Stockholders or such permitted transferees (including any stock issued as a dividend or other distribution with respect to, or in exchange for, or in replacement of such Founder Stock) (a “Majority Demand Registration”). Within ten days of the receipt of such request, Founder shall give written notice of such request to all other Combining Partner Company Stockholders having such registration rights and shall, as soon as practicable but in no event later than 45 days after notice from the Combining Partner Company Stockholders requesting such registration, file a registration statement covering all such shares and thereafter use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective. Founder shall be obligated to effect only one Majority Demand Registration for all Combining Partner Company Stockholders and will use commercially reasonable efforts to keep such Majority Demand Registration current and effective for 90 days (or such shorter period as is required to complete the distribution and sale of all shares registered thereunder). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 16.2(a), following such a demand, a majority of the disinterested directors of Founder (i.e. directors who have not demanded or elected to sell shares in any such public offering) may defer the filing of the registration statement for a 30-day period in their sole discretion.

(b) At any time after the twelfth monthly anniversary of the Closing Date, the holders of a majority of the shares of Founder Stock included in the Purchase Price (the “Purchase Price Stockholders”), which shares have not been previously registered or sold and which shares are not entitled to be sold under Rule 144 (or any similar or successor provision) promulgated under the 1933 Act without regard to manner of sale or volume limitations may request in writing that Founder file a registration statement under

-74-

the 1933 Act covering the registration of a portion of such shares (including any stock issued as a dividend or other distribution with respect to, or in exchange for, or in replacement of such Founder Stock) representing more than 50% of the number of shares of Founder Stock included in the Purchase Price (a “Purchase Price Stockholder Demand Registration”). Within ten days of the receipt of such request, Founder shall, as soon as practicable but in no event later than 45 days after notice from the Purchase Price Stockholders requesting such registration, file a registration statement covering such shares and thereafter use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective. Founder shall be obligated to effect only one Purchase Price Stockholder Demand Registration and will use commercially reasonable efforts to keep such Purchase Price Stockholder Demand Registration current and effective for 90 days (or such shorter period as is required to complete the distribution and sale of all shares registered thereunder). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 16.2(b), following such a demand, a majority of the disinterested directors of Founder (i.e. directors who have not demanded or elected to sell shares in any such public offering) may defer the filing of the registration statement for a 30-day period in their sole discretion.

(c) If at the time of any request for a Majority Demand Registration or Partner Company Stockholder Demand Registration (each a “Section 16.2 Registration”), Founder has formulated plans to file within 60 days after such request a registration statement covering the sale of any of its securities in a public offering under the 1933 Act, no registration of Founder Stock shall be initiated under this Section 16.2 until 90 days after the effective date of such registration statement unless Founder is no longer proceeding diligently to secure the effectiveness of such registration statement; provided that Founder shall provide Partner Company Stockholder the right to participate in such public offering pursuant to, and subject to, Section 16.1.

Section 16.3 Registration Procedures.

Founder will pay all registration, filing, qualification, printing and accounting fees, the fees and expenses of Founder’s legal counsel and the fees and expenses of one law firm to represent the Combining Partner Company Stockholders or Purchase Price Stockholders (each being a “Participating Stockholder”) participating in any registration under this Article XVI, and the Participating Stockholders shall pay all other costs and expenses they incur in connection therewith, including the fees and expenses of other law firms and all underwriting discounts and commissions attributable to their shares included in the registration statement. In connection with registrations under Section 16.1 and Section 16.2, Founder will, as expeditiously as practicable:

(a) Prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement with respect to such Registerable Securities and use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective; provided that Founder may discontinue any registration of its securities that is being effected pursuant to Section 16.1 and Section 16.2 at any time prior to the effective date of the registration statement relating thereto if a majority of the disinterested directors of Founder determine in good faith that such registration would be materially detrimental to Founder or its stockholders or would prematurely disclose information that would not be in the best interest of Founder if

-75-

disclosed at such time. If Founder discontinues any registration pursuant to this Section 16.3(a), such discontinued registration statement shall not be counted as the one Section 16.2 Registration referred to in Section 16.2(a) or Section 16.2(b).

(b) Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective for a period as may be requested by the Participating Stockholders holding a majority of the Registerable Securities covered thereby not exceeding 90 days (or such shorter period as is required to complete the distribution and sale of the shares registered thereunder as provided in such registration statement) and to comply with the provisions of the 1933 Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement during such period in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the seller or sellers thereof set forth in such registration statement; provided that before filing a registration statement or prospectus relating to the sale of Registerable Securities, or any amendments or supplements thereto, Founder will furnish to one counsel selected to represent all holders of Registerable Securities covered by such registration statement or prospectus, copies of all documents proposed to be filed, which documents will be subject to the review of such counsel, and Founder will give reasonable consideration in good faith to any comments of such counsel received promptly.

(c) Furnish to each holder of Registerable Securities covered by the registration statement and to each underwriter, if any, of such Registerable Securities, such number of copies of a preliminary prospectus and prospectus for delivery in conformity with the requirements of the 1933 Act, and such other documents, as such person may reasonably request, in order to facilitate the public sale or other disposition of the Registerable Securities.

(d) Use commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify the Registerable Securities covered by such registration statement under such other securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as each seller shall reasonably request, and to do any and all other acts and things which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable such seller to consummate the disposition of the Registerable Securities owned by such seller, in such jurisdictions, except that Founder shall not for any such purpose be required (i) to qualify to do business as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction where, but for the requirements of this Section 16.3(d), it is not then so qualified, (ii) to subject itself to Taxation or to any ongoing reporting or disclosure obligations in any such jurisdiction, or (iii) to take any action which would subject it to general or unlimited service of process in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so subject.

(e) Immediately notify each seller of Registerable Securities covered by such registration statement, at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the 1933 Act within the appropriate period mentioned in Section 16.3(b), if Founder becomes aware that the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements

-76-

therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing, and, at the request of any such seller, deliver a reasonable number of copies of an amended or supplemented prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Registerable Securities, each prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing.

(f) Otherwise use commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and make generally available to its security holders, in each case as soon as practicable, but not later than 45 calendar days after the close of the period covered thereby (90 calendar days in case the period covered corresponds to a fiscal year of the Founder), an earnings statement of Founder which will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the 1933 Act.

(g) Use commercially reasonable efforts to list such Registerable Securities on each national securities exchange on which the shares of Founder Stock are listed for trading.

(h) In the event the offering is an underwritten offering, use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a “cold comfort” letter from the independent auditors for Founder in customary form and covering such matters of the type customarily covered by such letters and to obtain for delivery to the underwriter an opinion or opinions from counsel for Founder in customary form and scope reasonably satisfactory to such underwriter and its counsel.

(i) Execute and deliver all instruments and documents (including in an underwritten offering an underwriting agreement in customary form) and take such other actions and obtain such certificates and opinions as the Participating Stockholders holding a majority of the shares of Registerable Securities covered by the Registration Statement may reasonably request in order to effect an underwritten public offering of such Registerable Securities.

(j) Make available for inspection by the seller of such Registerable Securities covered by such registration statement, by any underwriter participating in any disposition to be effected pursuant to such registration statement and by any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by any such seller or any such underwriter, all pertinent financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of Founder, and cause all of Founder’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information reasonably requested by any such seller, underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with such registration statement.

Section 16.4 Other Registration Matters.

(a) Each Participating Stockholder holding shares of Registerable Securities covered by a Registration Statement referred to in this Article XVI will, upon receipt of any notice from Founder of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 16.3(e), forthwith discontinue disposition of the Registerable Securities pursuant to the registration statement covering such Registerable Securities until such holder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 16.3(e).

-77-

(b) If a registration pursuant to Section 16.1 or Section 16.2 involves an underwritten offering, each Participating Stockholder agrees, if its shares of Registerable Securities are included in such registration, not to effect any sale or distribution, including any sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the 1933 Act, of any Registerable Securities, or of any security convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any Registerable Securities (other than as part of such underwritten offering), or to engage in other transactions customarily prohibited by underwriters in lock-up agreements, without the consent of the managing underwriter, during a period commencing seven calendar days before and ending 180 calendar days (or such lesser number as the managing underwriter shall designate) after the effective date of such registration. Similarly, each Participating Stockholder agrees not to effect any sale or distribution, including any sale pursuant to the registration rights provided in Section 16.1, of any Registerable Securities, or of any security convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any Registerable Securities (other than as part of such underwritten offering), or to engage in other transactions customarily prohibited by underwriters in lock-up agreements, without the consent of the managing underwriter of the IPO during a period commencing on the effective date of the Registration Statement under the 1933 Act and ending 365 calendar days (or such lesser number as such managing underwriter shall designate) after such effective date; provided however, if any Participating Stockholder is released from any such transfer restrictions, Partner Company Stockholder shall likewise be released from such transfer restrictions on a proportional basis.

Section 16.5 Indemnification.

(a) In the event of any registration of any securities of Founder under the 1933 Act pursuant to Section 16.1 or Section 16.2, Founder will, and it hereby agrees to, indemnify and hold harmless, to the extent permitted by law, each seller of any Registerable Securities covered by such registration statement, each affiliate of such seller and, if such seller is a portfolio or investment fund, its investment advisors, each other person who participates as an underwriter in the offering or sale of such securities and each other person, if any, who controls such seller or any such underwriter within the meaning of the 1933 Act, as follows:

(i) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage or expense whatsoever arising out of or based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any registration statement (or any amendment or supplement thereto), including all documents incorporated therein by reference, or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or arising out of an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any preliminary, final or summary prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case,

-78-

other than any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in reliance on and in conformity with written information furnished to Founder by or on behalf of a Participating Stockholder or underwriter for use in the preparation of such registration statement, preliminary, final or summary prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto);

(ii) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever to the extent of the aggregate amount paid in settlement of any litigation, or investigation or proceeding by any Government Authority, commenced or threatened, or of any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission, if such settlement is effected with the written consent of Founder; and

(iii) against any and all expense reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or investigation or proceeding by any Government Authority, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission to the extent that any such expense is not paid under subsection (i) or (ii) above.

Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such seller or any such director, officer, employee, agent, general or limited partner, investment advisor or agent, underwriter or controlling person and shall survive the transfer of such securities by such seller.

(b) Founder may require, as a condition to including any Registerable Securities in any registration statement filed in accordance with Section 16.1 or Section 16.2, that Founder and its directors, officers and controlling persons shall have received an undertaking reasonably satisfactory to it from the prospective seller of such Registerable Securities and any underwriter, to indemnify and hold them harmless (in the same manner and to the same extent as set forth in Section 16.5(a)) with respect to any misstatement or alleged misstatement in or omission or alleged omission from such registration statement, any preliminary, final or summary prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement, if such statement or alleged statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to Founder by or on behalf of such seller or underwriter for use in the preparation of such registration statement, preliminary, final or summary prospectus or amendment or supplement. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of Founder or any such director, officer or controlling person and shall survive the transfer of such securities by such seller. In that event, the obligations of Founder and such sellers pursuant to this Section 16.5 are to be several and not joint; provided, however, that, with respect to each claim pursuant to this Section 16.5, Founder shall be liable for the full amount of such claim, and each such seller’s liability under this Section 16.5 shall be limited to an amount equal to the net proceeds (after deducting underwriting discounts and expenses) received by such seller from the sale of Registerable Securities held by such seller pursuant to this Agreement.

-79-

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party hereunder of written notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding involving a claim referred to in this Section 16.5, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party, give written notice to such indemnifying party of the commencement of such action; provided, however, that the failure of any indemnified party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations under this Section 16.5, except to the extent (not including any such notice of an underwriter) that the indemnifying party is materially prejudiced by such failure to give notice. In case any such action is brought against an indemnified party, unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist in respect of such claim (in which case the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one firm of counsel selected by holders of a majority of the shares of Registerable Securities included in the offering or more than one firm of counsel for the underwriters or more than one firm of counsel to Founder, as the case may be, in connection with any one action or separate but similar or related actions), the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in and to assume the defense thereof, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to the extent that it may wish with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof, provided that the indemnifying party will not agree to any settlement without the prior consent of the indemnified party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) unless such settlement requires no more than a monetary payment for which the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party and includes a full, unconditional and complete release of the indemnified party; provided, however, that the indemnified party shall be entitled to take control of the defense of any claim as to which, in the reasonable judgment of the indemnified party’s counsel, representation of both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party would be inappropriate under the applicable standards of professional conduct due to actual or potential differing interests between them. In the event that the indemnifying party does not assume the defense of a claim pursuant to this Section 16.5(c), the indemnified party will have the right to defend such claim by all appropriate proceedings, and will have control of such defense and proceedings, and the indemnified party shall have the right to agree to any settlement without the prior consent of the indemnifying party. Each party shall, and shall cause its legal counsel to, provide reasonable cooperation to each other party and its legal counsel in connection with its assuming the defense of any claim, including furnishing of each other party with all papers served in such proceeding. In the event that an indemnifying party assumes the defense of an action under this Section 16.5(c), then such party shall, subject to the provisions of this Section 16.5, indemnify and hold harmless the indemnified party from any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities by reason of such settlement or judgment.

(d) Founder and each seller of Registerable Securities shall provide for the foregoing indemnity (with appropriate modifications) in any underwriting agreement with respect to any required registration or other qualification of securities under any federal or state law or regulation of any governmental authority.

-80-

Section 16.6 Contribution.

In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances under which the indemnity contemplated by Section 16.5 is for any reason not available or insufficient for any reason to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, the parties required to indemnify by the terms thereof shall contribute to the aggregate losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses of the nature contemplated by such indemnity agreement incurred by Founder, any seller of Registerable Securities and one or more of the underwriters, except to the extent that contribution is not permitted under Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act. In determining the amounts which the respective parties shall contribute, there shall be considered the relative benefits received by each party from the offering of the Registerable Securities by taking into account the portion of the proceeds of the offering realized by each, and the relative fault of each party by taking into account the parties’ relative knowledge and access to information concerning the matter with respect to which the claim was asserted, the opportunity to correct and prevent any statement or omission and any other equitable considerations appropriate under the circumstances. Founder and each person selling securities agree with each other that no seller of Registerable Securities shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount such seller would have been required to pay to an indemnified party if the indemnity under Section 16.5(b) were available. Founder and each such seller agree with each other and the underwriters of the Registerable Securities, if requested by such underwriters, that it would not be equitable if the amount of such contribution were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation (even if the underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or for the underwriters’ portion of such contribution to exceed the percentage that the underwriting discount bears to the initial public offering price of the Registerable Securities. For purposes of this Section 16.6, each person, if any, who controls an underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such underwriter, and each director and each officer of Founder who signed the registration statement, and each person, if any, who controls Founder or a seller of Registerable Securities within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act shall have the same rights to contribution as Founder or a seller of Registerable Securities, as the case may be.

Section 16.7 Availability of Rule 144.

Founder shall not be obligated to register, pursuant to Section 16.1 or Section 16.2, shares of Registerable Securities held by any Participating Stockholder at any time when the resale provisions of Rule 144 (or any similar or successor provision) promulgated under the 1933 Act permit resales by such Participating Stockholder without regard to manner of sale or volume limitations.

XXXXXX & XXXXXX GROUP, INC.

SECTION 351 EXCHANGE PLAN

The Board of Directors of Xxxxxx & Xxxxxx Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation organized on November 18, 2011 (“Founder”), has adopted this Section 351 Exchange Plan effective as of the date of Founder’s organization (“Exchange Plan”) pursuant to which the shareholders of Initial Founder, Combining Partner Company Stockholders and the purchasers of Founder Stock in the Founder’s initial underwritten public offering (“IPO”) (collectively, the “Contributors”) will, in a series of interrelated transactions (“Combinations”), exchange property (including capital stock of Initial Founder and Combining Partner Companies, other assets, and cash, hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Assets”) for Founder Stock representing “control” under Section 368(c) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) immediately following the final step of the Exchange Plan, and Founder will acquire the Assets, all in a manner that complies with the requirements of Section 351 of the Code and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. Each agreement governing a Combination and the Initial Founder Merger Agreement is incorporated into the Plan on the execution of such agreement. The Combinations constitute a series of interrelated and integrated transactions that will proceed with an expedition consistent with orderly procedure pursuant to the Exchange Plan which defines the rights of the Founder and the Contributors with respect to Combinations, all as more particularly set forth below:

WHEREAS, the steps of the Exchange Plan (the Combinations and the IPO) will occur substantially concurrently upon the consummation of the IPO;

NOW THEREFORE, in order to carryout out the Combinations, Founder may elect to exchange, as a part of the Exchange Plan, Founder Stock and other consideration, including cash, warrants, options and promissory notes, for such Assets as may be transferred to Founder by one or more of the following individuals and entities: (i) certain holders of capital stock of other corporations or other assets that may be acquired by Founder pursuant to the Combinations; (ii) certain other persons or entities who may assist Founder in the Combinations or in the development or marketing of its products; (iii) purchasers of Founder’s capital stock in the IPO; and (iv) certain other financial investors; and

FURTHERMORE, Founder, the shareholder of Initial Founder and each Combining Partner Company Stockholder intend (i) that his or her executed Combination Agreement is part of the Exchange Plan, (ii) that the Founder Stock he or she received in exchange for contribution of Assets to Founder shall, when added to the Founder Stock received by the other Contributors under the Exchange Plan, immediately after the completion of the Exchange Plan, constitute at least 80% of the total combined voting power of all classes of capital stock of Founder entitled to vote and at least 80% of the total number of shares of all other classes of capital stock of Founder), and (iii) that the Founder Stock received by the Contributors pursuant to the Exchange Plan shall qualify as Tax free within the provisions of Section 351 of the Code to the extent of the receipt of Founder Stock (excluding, however, any gain recognized solely by reason of Section 357(c) of the Code); and

I-1

FURTHERMORE, Founder, the shareholder of Initial Founder and certain Combining Partner Company Stockholders intend that certain Combinations be structured to simultaneously qualify as a reorganization described in Section 368(a) of the Code as well as a Tax free exchange within the provision of Section 351 of the Code; and

FURTHERMORE, Initial Founder and each Combining Partner Company Stockholder (collectively, the “Signatory Contributors”) recognize that every Signatory Contributor is relying upon each other Signatory Contributor’s representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth below as a material inducement to its approval and adoption of this Exchange Plan. Accordingly, each Signatory Contributor, severally and not jointly, represents and warrants to and covenants and agrees with each other Signatory Contributor as follows:

The stock or other equity interests (collectively, the “Stock”) to be transferred to Founder in exchange for Founder Stock do not constitute “section 306 stock” within the meaning of Section 306(c) of the Code.

No portion of the Founder Stock received in a Combination shall be issued for services rendered or to be rendered for the benefit of the Founder.

The fair market value of Founder Stock, securities or other property to be received by each Signatory Contributor is approximately equal to the fair market value of the Stock to be transferred by each Signatory Contributor to Founder.

No Signatory Contributor has any contractual obligation, plan or intention to transfer, sell or otherwise dispose of the Founder Stock to be received in exchange for its Stock.

There is no indebtedness between Founder and any Combining Partner Company Stockholder, and no Indebtedness will be created in favor of Combining Partner Company Stockholder as a result of the transfer.

Each Combining Partner Company Stockholder agrees to cooperate with Founder and to take all reasonably commercial actions requested by Founder to preserve, and use commercially reasonable efforts to refrain from taking actions that would prevent, Section 351 status of the Exchange Plan and unless otherwise required by a taxing authority, the Founder, the shareholder of Initial Founder and each Combining Partner Company Stockholder shall, for federal income tax purpose, report its receipt of Founder Stock pursuant to the Exchange Plan in a manner consistent with the intentions of the parties as stated in this Exchange Plan.

FURTHERMORE, it is the expectation of Founder that the parties to the Combinations and the IPO will contribute Assets to Founder in the approximate amounts to be set forth in the initial Registration Statement on Form S-1 to be prepared and filed by Founder as promptly as practicable with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Initial Registration Statement”) in exchange for the voting capital stock, and other consideration, including cash, options, warrants and promissory notes of Founder, in the approximate amounts to be set forth in the Initial Registration Statement.

I-2

The shares of voting capital stock and other consideration, including cash, options, warrants and promissory notes of Founder, deliverable in the Combinations may be subject to adjustment in accordance with the various combination agreements between Founder and the contributing parties. This Exchange Plan shall not obligate any party to any Combination to consummate such Combination other than upon the terms of the definitive combination agreement to be executed by such party with respect to such Combination.

Capitalized terms that are not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Combination Agreement to which this Exchange Plan is attached as Annex I.

By the execution of the combination agreement to which this Exchange Plan is attached as Annex I, each of the contributing parties referred to therein evidences such party’s agreement with and adoption of this Exchange Plan.
