Parent shall review the foregoing and Parent and the Sellers shall mutually agree in good faith on the determination of the Company’s estimated Working Capital as of the Closing (such amount, as mutually agreed, the “Estimated Working Capital Amount”). Thereafter, and as a condition to the Closing, the Company shall deliver a certificate executed by each Seller certifying as to (A) the Estimated Working Capital, (B) the Indebtedness to be paid directly by Purchaser pursuant to Section 2.05(c)(iii) and (C) the Transaction Expenses, if any, to be paid directly by Purchaser pursuant to Section 2.05(c)(iv).

The Closing Payment set forth in Section 2.02(a) shall be: (i) increased by the amount, if any, by which the Estimated Working Capital Amount exceeds the Working Capital Top Collar; and (ii) decreased by the amount, if any, by which the Working Capital Bottom Collar exceeds the Estimated Working Capital Amount (such increase or decrease, the “Closing Working Capital Payment”). In the event the Estimated Working Capital Amount falls between the Working Capital Bottom Collar and the Working Capital Top Collar, there shall be no Closing Working Capital Payment.

(i) As soon as reasonably practicable, but in no event later than 90 days after the Closing Date, Parent shall conduct a review of the Working Capital and shall deliver to Agent: (A) a balance sheet of the Company as of the close of business on the Closing prepared on the same basis and using the same accounting methods, practices, principles, policies and procedures that were used in the preparation of the Audited Financial Statements Date (the “Closing Balance Sheet”); (B) a statement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D (the “Closing Statement”) setting forth the actual amount of Working Capital, each of which shall be prepared using the methodology set forth on Exhibit B (it being understood that, except for the non-GAAP principles and methodologies set forth on Exhibit B, the Closing Balance Sheet and Closing Statement shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP); (C) outstanding Indebtedness not included in the calculation of the Closing Payment (if any); and (D) Transaction Expenses not included in the calculation of the Closing Payment (if any), in each case as of the close of business on the Closing Date with supporting detail.

(ii) Agent may accept the Closing Statement and computation of Working Capital within 30 days after receipt of the Closing Statement. If Agent disagrees with the computation of the Working Capital as reflected on the Closing Statement, Agent may, within 30 days after receipt of the Closing Statement, deliver a notice (an “Objection Notice”) to Parent setting forth Agent’s calculation of the Working Capital and a statement setting forth Agent’s objections in reasonable detail. Any amounts not specifically objected to by Agent in the Objection Notice shall be deemed accepted. If Agent fails to deliver an Objection Notice to Parent on or prior to the expiration of the 30-day period referred to above, the Closing Statement and the calculation of Working Capital set forth therein shall be final and binding on the Sellers and Agent. If Agent delivers an Objection Notice on or prior to the expiration of the 30-day period referred to above, Parent and Agent shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any disagreements as to the computation of the Working Capital, but if there is no final resolution with respect to any amounts remaining in dispute (the “Disputed Amounts”) within 20 days after Parent has received the Objection Notice, Parent and Agent shall jointly retain the Chicago, Illinois office of Ernst & Young LLP (the “Accounting Firm”) to resolve any disagreements relating only to the Disputed Amounts and to determine the Final Working Capital Amount (as defined below). Parent and Agent shall each submit all back-up documentation to the Accounting Firm promptly (and in any event within 15 days after the Accounting Firm’s engagement), which documentation shall include such Party’s computation of the Working Capital and information, arguments and support for such Party’s position with respect to the Disputed Amounts. Parent and Agent shall also have the right to present oral arguments relevant to the Accounting Firm’s resolution of the Disputed Amounts. Neither Purchaser nor Agent or any of their respective Representatives shall have or conduct any communication, either written or oral, with the Accounting Firm without the other Party either being present or receiving a concurrent copy of any written communication.

(iii) The Accounting Firm shall review all such documentation and shall deliver its determination of the Disputed Amounts within 60 days after its engagement, and shall base its determination solely on such documentation in accordance with GAAP and in accordance with the definition of Working Capital herein. In resolving such Disputed Amounts, the Accounting Firm may not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value used for such item claimed by either Party or less than the smallest value for such item claimed by either Party. The determination of the Accounting Firm shall be conclusive and binding upon the Parties.

(iv) Agent shall pay a portion of the fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm equal to 100% multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount of Disputed Amounts submitted to the Accounting Firm that are resolved in favor of Parent (that being the difference between the Accounting Firm’s determination and Agent’s determination) and the denominator of which is the total amount of the Disputed Amounts submitted to the Accounting Firm (that being the sum total by which Parent’s determination and Agent’s determination differ from the determination of the Accounting Firm). Parent shall pay that portion of the fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm that Agent is not required to pay hereunder.

(v) Parent agrees to provide Agent and its Representatives and the Accounting Firm with full access to the Books and Records, accountant’s work papers, accounting personnel, and facilities of the Company during normal business hours in order to complete their review of the Closing Statement and the Closing Balance Sheet; provided, however, such access shall be in manner that does not interfere with the normal operations of the Company.

(i) Once all disputes relating to the Working Capital are resolved in accordance with Section 2.04(c) such that there is a final amount of Working Capital (the “Final Working Capital Amount”), the final adjustment to the Purchase Price in respect of Working Capital will be calculated as follows:

(A) If the Estimated Working Capital is above the Working Capital Top Collar and:

(1) The Final Working Capital is more than the Estimated Working Capital, then there shall be a “Working Capital Overage” equal to the Final Working Capital minus the Estimated Working Capital;

(2) The Final Working Capital is less than the Estimated Working Capital, but above the Working Capital Top Collar, then there shall be a “Working Capital Shortage” equal to the Estimated Working Capital minus Final Working Capital;

(3) The Final Working Capital is between the Working Capital Bottom Collar and Working Capital Top Collar, then there shall be a “Working Capital Shortage” equal to the Estimated Working Capital minus the Working Capital Top Collar; or

(4) The Final Working Capital is less than the Working Capital Bottom Collar, then there shall be a “Working Capital Shortage” equal to the Estimated Working Capital minus the Working Capital Top Collar plus the Working Capital Bottom Collar minus the Final Working Capital.

(B) If the Estimated Working Capital is between the Working Capital Bottom Collar and the Working Capital Top Collar and:

(1) The Final Working Capital is more than the Working Capital Top Collar, then then there shall be a “Working Capital Overage” equal to equal to the Final Working Capital minus the Working Capital Top Collar;

(2) The Final Working Capital is between the Working Capital Top Collar and Working Capital Bottom Collar, then there shall be neither a “Working Capital Shortage” nor a “Working Capital Overage”; or

(3) The Final Working Capital is less than the Working Capital Bottom Collar, then then there shall be a “Working Capital Shortage” equal to the Working Capital Bottom Collar minus the Final Working Capital.

(1) The Final Working Capital is more than the Estimated Working Capital, but below the Working Capital Bottom Collar, then there shall be a “Working Capital Overage” equal to the Final Working Capital minus the Estimated Working Capital;

(2) The Final Working Capital is more than the Estimated Working Capital but between the Working Capital Bottom Collar and the Working Capital Top Collar, then there shall be a “Working Capital Overage” equal to the Working Capital Bottom Collar minus the Estimated Working Capital;

(3) The Final Working Capital is more than the Estimated Working Capital and more than the Working Capital Top Collar, then there shall be a “Working Capital Overage” equal to the Working Capital Bottom Collar minus the Estimated Working Capital plus the Final Working Capital minus the Working Capital Top Collar; or

(4) The Final Working Capital is less than the Estimated Working Capital, then then there shall be a “Working Capital Shortage” equal to the Estimated Working Capital minus the Final Working Capital.

(ii) In the event of a Working Capital Shortage, Agent and Parent shall, as soon as reasonably practicable and no later than five Business Days after the determination of the Final Working Capital, instruct the Escrow Agent in writing to pay as directed by Parent from the Working Capital Escrow Amount, in accordance with the Escrow Agreement, the amount of such Working Capital Shortage and shall disburse the remainder of the Working Capital Escrow Amount as directed by Agent. In the event that the Working Capital Shortage is greater than the Working Capital Escrow Amount distributed by the Escrow Agent, Agent and Parent shall instruct the Escrow Agent in writing to pay, as directed by Parent, any remaining Working Capital Shortage from the General Escrow Amount in accordance with the Escrow Agreement.

(iii) In the event of a Working Capital Overage, Agent and Parent shall, as soon as reasonably practicable and no later than five Business Days after the determination of the Final Working Capital, instruct the Escrow Agent in writing to pay as directed by Agent the Working Capital Escrow Amount in accordance with the Escrow Agreement, and Purchaser shall pay the Working Capital Overage in the manner directed by Agent by wire transfer of immediately available funds in U.S. dollars to the account or accounts for each Seller designated in writing by Agent.

(iv) If the Final Working Capital Amount is such that neither a Working Capital Shortage nor a Working Capital Overage exists, then, there shall be no adjustment to the Purchase Price based on the Final Working Capital Amount and Agent and Parent shall, as soon as reasonably practicable and no later than five Business Days after the determination of the Final Working Capital, instruct the Escrow Agent in writing to pay as directed by Agent the Working Capital Escrow Amount in accordance with the Escrow Agreement.

The amount of the Earn-Out Payment shall not exceed fifteen million dollars ($15,000,000) (the “Maximum Earn-Out Payment”), and subject thereto, shall equal the dollar amount that results from the following calculation: “A” plus “B” minus “C” (the “Earn-Out Formula”), where:

(i) “A” = The Adjusted Gross Profit earned during the Earn-Out Period that is attributable to any of the Earn-Out Products set forth on Schedule 2.06(a)(i) multiplied by 1/3;

(ii) “B” = The Adjusted Gross Profit earned during the Earn-Out Period that is attributable to any of the Earn-Out Products set forth on Schedule 2.06(a)(ii) multiplied by 1/4; and

(iii) “C” = (I) $7,000,000 in the event the sum of “A” and “B” is less than $12,000,0000 or (II) $4,000,000 in the event the sum of “A” and “B” is greater than or equal to $12,000,000.

No later than ten Business Days prior to the Closing or such other time as the Parties mutually agree, (A) Agent and Purchaser shall modify Schedule 2.06(a)(i) so that it contains all of the Company’s Earn-Out Products that are not pipeline or current products of Parent or its Affiliates as of the Closing, and (B) Agent and Purchaser shall modify Schedule 2.06(a)(ii) so that it contains all of the Company’s Earn-Out Products that are also pipeline or current products of Parent or its Affiliates as of the Closing, in each case as reasonably established by documented evidence exchanged between Agent and Purchaser. For the avoidance of doubt, Schedule 2.06(a)(i) and Schedule 2.06(a)(ii), as modified hereunder and in effect as of the Closing, shall be deemed to be final for all purposes.

(b) Earn-Out Period; Interim Earn-Out Periods.

(i) For purposes of this Agreement, the “Earn-Out Period” means the three year period commencing on the first day of the calendar month following the Closing Date (the “Earn-Out Commencement Date”) and ending on the three year anniversary thereof.

(ii) During the Earn-Out Period, there shall be three interim measurement periods: (A) the 12-month period commencing on the Earn-Out Commencement Date and ending on the one year anniversary of the Earn-Out Commencement Date (the “First Measurement Period”); (B) the 12-month period commencing on the one year anniversary of the Earn-Out Commencement Date and ending on the two year anniversary of the Earn-Out Commencement Date (the “Second Measurement Period”); and (C) the 12-month period commencing on the second anniversary of the Earn-Out Commencement Date and ending on the third anniversary of the Earn-Out Commencement Date (the “Third Measurement Period” and together with the First Measurement Period and Second Measurement Period, the “Earn-Out Measurement Periods”).

(c) Interim Earn-Out Payments. As soon as practicable and no later than 90 days following the end of each of the First Measurement Period and Second Measurement Period, Parent shall conduct a review of Adjusted Gross Profit of the Products set forth on Schedules 2.06(a)(i)-(ii) (such Products, collectively the “Earn-Out Products”) for the then completed Earn-Out Measurement Period and the estimated amount of earn-out consideration, if any, earned during such completed Earn-Out Measurement Period (the “Interim Earn-Out Payment”), and shall deliver to Agent a statement (an “Interim Earn-Out Statement”) setting forth in reasonable detail Parent’s good faith calculation of Adjusted Gross Profit for the then completed Earn-Out Measurement Period and the Interim Earn-Out Payment for such completed Earn-Out Measurement Period. As soon as reasonably practicable but in no event later than five Business Days after the delivery of the Interim Earn-Out Statement to Agent, Purchaser shall deposit the Interim Earn-Out Payment, if any, with the Escrow Agent in accordance with this Section 2.06(c) and the Escrow Agreement.

(d) Final Earn-Out Payment and Release of Earn-Out Escrow.

(i) As soon as practicable and no later than 90 days following the end of the Earn-Out Period, Parent shall conduct a review of Adjusted Gross Profit of the Earn-Out Products for the Earn-Out Period and the estimated Earn-Out Payment, if any, earned during the Earn-Out Period (the “Estimated Final Earn-Out Payment”) and shall deliver to Agent a statement (an “Earn-Out Statement”) setting forth in reasonable detail Parent’s good faith calculation of Adjusted Gross Profit for the Earn-Out Period and the Estimated Final Earn-Out Payment.

(ii) After receipt of the Earn-Out Statement, Agent shall have 90 days to review and accept the same. If Agent disagrees in good faith with the computation of Adjusted Gross Profit or the Estimated Final Earn-Out Payment reflected on the Earn-Out Statement on the basis that the same has not been determined on the basis set forth in Section 2.06(a), Agent may, within 90 days after receipt of the Earn-Out Statement, deliver an objection notice (an “Earn-Out Objection Notice”) to Parent setting forth Agent’s calculation of Adjusted Gross Profit on the Earn-Out Products for the Earn-Out Period and the Estimated Final Earn-Out Payment, if any, along with a statement setting forth Agent’s objections and adjustments to the Earn-Out Statement in reasonable detail. If Agent fails to deliver an Earn-Out Objection Notice to Parent on or prior to the expiration of the 90-day period referred to above, the Earn-Out Statement and the calculation of Adjusted Gross Profit and the Estimated Final Earn-Out Payment set forth therein shall be final and binding on the Sellers and Agent. If Agent delivers an Earn-Out Objection Notice on or prior to the expiration of the 90-day period referred to above, Parent and Agent shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any disagreements regarding the computation of Adjusted Gross Profit or the Estimated Final Earn-Out Payment, if any, but if there is no final resolution with respect to any Disputed Amounts within 20 days after Parent has received the Objection Notice, Parent and Agent shall jointly retain the Accounting Firm in accordance with Section 2.04(c)(ii), and the provisions of Sections 2.04(c)(iii)-(v) shall apply mutatis mutandis to the resolution of the foregoing dispute. Parent shall cause the Company to make its Books and Records, accounting personnel and advisors as may be reasonably requested available to Agent and the Accounting Firm at reasonable times during the review by Agent and/or the Accounting Firm of the Earn-Out Statement.

(iii) Once all disputes relating to the Earn-Out Statement for the Earn-Out Period are resolved in accordance with Section 2.06(d)(ii) such that there is a final Earn-Out Payment determined (the “Final Earn-Out Payment”), and subject to the other terms and conditions herein, Parent and Agent shall, within five Business Days of the determination of the Final Earn-Out Payment:

(A) to the extent the Final Earn-Out Payment exceeds the amount held in the Earn-Out Escrow Account: (I) Parent and Agent shall execute joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to distribute all amounts held in the Earn-Out Escrow Account as directed by Agent; and (II) Parent shall pay any remaining Final Earn-Out Payment in the manner directed by Agent by wire transfer of immediately available funds in U.S. dollars to the account or accounts for each Seller designated in writing by Agent; and

(B) to the extent the amount held in the Earn-Out Escrow Account exceeds the Final Earn-Out Payment, Parent and Agent shall execute joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to (I) distribute the amount of the Final Earn-Out Payment from the amounts held in the Earn-Out Escrow Account as directed by Agent and (II) disburse the remaining amounts held in the Earn-Out Escrow Account as directed by Parent.

(e) Earn-Out Standard. Parent and its Affiliates shall act in a commercially reasonable manner to develop and commercialize the Earn-Out Products during the Earn-Out Period and shall not take any action during the Earn-Out Period which is solely intended to prevent or frustrate the achievement of Adjusted Gross Profit for the purpose of reducing the Earn-Out Payment. Subject to the foregoing sentence, Parent and its Affiliates shall be free to operate the Company’s business in the manner deemed by them to be in the best interest of Parent. The Company and each Seller acknowledge and agree that the foregoing provision is the sole standard by which Parent and its Affiliates shall be judged with respect to the achievement of the Earn-Out Payment and the other matters set forth in this Section 2.06(e).

(f) Acceleration upon Achievement of Maximum Earn-Out Payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in the event that after the end of either the First Measurement Period or the Second Measurement Period the Maximum Earn-Out Payment has been achieved pursuant to the Earn-Out Formula, as set forth on the Interim Earn-Out Statement(s) delivered to Agent pursuant to Section 2.06(c): (A) Parent and Agent, as soon as reasonably practicable and no later than five (5) Business Days after the delivery of the most recent Interim Earn-Out Statement, shall execute joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to distribute all amounts held in the Earn-Out Escrow Account as directed by Agent; and (B) within five (5) Business Days after the delivery of the most recent Interim Earn-Out Statement, Parent shall pay the remaining amount of the Earn-Out Payment due in the manner directed by Agent by wire transfer of immediately available funds in U.S. dollars to the account or accounts for each Seller designated in writing by Agent.

In such event, as soon as reasonably practicable and no later than five Business Days following the applicable Pharmaceutical Change-in-Control Event, Parent and Agent: (I) shall execute joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to distribute all amounts held in the Earn-Out Escrow Account as directed by Agent; and (II) Parent shall pay any remaining Earn-Out Payment in the manner directed by Agent by wire transfer of immediately available funds in U.S. dollars to the account or accounts for each Seller designated in writing by Agent on behalf of the Sellers.

In such event, as soon as reasonably practicable and no later than five Business Days following the applicable Parent Change-in-Control Event, Parent (or any successor-in-interest) thereto and Agent: (I) shall execute joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to distribute all amounts held in the Earn-Out Escrow Account as directed by Agent; and (II) Parent (or any successor-in-interest thereto) shall pay any remaining Earn-Out Payment earned by Sellers as of the date of the Parent Change-in-Control Event in the manner directed by Agent by wire transfer of immediately available funds in U.S. dollars to the account or accounts for each Seller designated in writing by Agent.

(h) Transfer of Stock Consideration upon Certain Change-in-Control Transactions.

7.04	Employees.

(a) Post-Closing Employee Salary & Wages. Upon the Closing, each Company Employee shall continue his or her employment with the Company on an at-will basis at salary or hourly wage rates (as the case may be) generally comparable to the salary or wage rates received by the Company Employee as of immediately prior to the Closing, provided such Company Employee has satisfied Purchaser’s standard employment prerequisites applicable to its employees, the employment of Company Employee would not otherwise be prohibited by Law, have an adverse effect on Purchaser’s business or be contrary to pharmaceutical industry best practices with respect to compliance (such qualifying employees, the “Post-Closing Employees”). For the avoidance of doubt, the employment of a Company Employee may not be continued if that Company Employee is or has been: (i) debarred pursuant to the Generic Drug Enforcement Act of 1992 (21 U.S.C. § 335a), as amended from time to time; (ii) excluded, debarred, or suspended from, or otherwise ineligible to participate in, a “Federal Health Care Program” as defined in 42 U.S.C. § 1320a-7b(f), as amended from time to time, or any other governmental payment, procurement or non-procurement program; (iii) included on the HHS/OIG List of Excluded Individuals/Entities, the General Services Administration’s List of Parties Excluded from Federal Programs, or the FDA Debarment List; (iv) convicted of a criminal offense that falls within the ambit of 21 U.S.C. § 335a or 42 U.S.C. § 1320a-7, but has not yet been excluded, debarred, suspended or otherwise declared ineligible; (v) convicted of any offense under the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, or in any way otherwise relating to the development or approval, including the process for development or approval, of any drug product; or (vi) convicted of any offense in connection with the delivery of or payment for a health care benefit, item, or service.

From and after the Closing Date until the date falling three months after the Closing Date, Parent shall cause the Company to extend to the Post-Closing Employees that continue to be employed by the Company, Parent or its Affiliates (including their eligible dependents) benefit plans, programs and arrangements that are not materially less favorable in the aggregate to the employee benefit plans, programs and arrangements (in each case other than equity and severance arrangements) received by them from the Company immediately prior to Closing. To the extent that the Post-Closing Employees are employed by the Company, Parent or its Affiliates after the date falling three months after the Closing Date, they will be offered certain benefits under the plans maintained by Parent or its Affiliates, as determined by Parent in its sole discretion. Any Post-Closing Employee terminated prior to the date falling six months after the Closing Date shall receive as their exclusive severance payment an amount equal to 2 weeks of salary for every year of service with the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Parent nor Purchaser shall assume any liability with respect to, and the Sellers shall remain responsible for, severance agreements, plans or policies for the Company Employees in effect as of the Closing Date and the Company shall provide to Purchaser evidence of termination of all severance arrangements before the Closing Date, other than the severance arrangements with the Persons set forth on Schedule 7.04(b)(i). Notwithstanding anything stated herein, the Sellers shall be responsible for any severance payments to the Persons set forth on Schedule 7.04(b)(ii).

The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Company Employees and the Post-Closing Employees are not intended to be third party beneficiaries under, and shall have no rights (including any right to continued employment) in respect of any of the provisions of this Agreement, including this Section 7.04. Nothing contained in this Section 7.04 shall: (i) be construed to restrict Parent’s, Purchaser’s, the Company’s or any of their respective Affiliates’ ability after the Closing Date to terminate the employment of any Post-Closing Employee; or (ii) shall constitute an amendment to or any other modification of any employee benefit or other compensatory plan, policy or arrangement. The Parties acknowledge and agree that after the Closing, it is anticipated that the Company will be liquidated into an Affiliate of Parent. Parent and Purchaser may freely transfer the employment of the Post-Closing Employees to any of Parent’s Affiliates or their respective Subsidiaries, subject to the obligations set forth in Section 7.04(a) and (b).

7.05 Cash and Cash Equivalents of the Company. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Parties agrees that Sellers shall be permitted to cause, and Sellers shall use reasonable best efforts to cause, all Cash and Cash Equivalents held by the Company as of the Closing to be transferred to Sellers prior to the Closing. Purchaser and Parent agree that if any cash or cash equivalents held by the Company as of the Closing Date is not transferred to Sellers prior to the Closing, then such Cash and Cash Equivalents shall be promptly transferred in the manner directed by Agent by wire transfer of immediately available funds in U.S. dollars to the account or accounts for each Seller designated in writing by Agent.

To the extent permitted under applicable Law, the Seller Prepared Returns shall be prepared in accordance with existing procedures and practices and accounting methods of the Company as in effect on the date hereof. The Sellers shall furnish such Seller Prepared Returns to Parent for its review at least 20 days prior to the due date (including any extensions thereof) for filing such Seller Prepared Returns and the Sellers shall consider Purchaser’s comments in good faith. To the extent that the Taxes due with respect to any such Seller Prepared Returns are not adequately provided for in determining the Final Working Capital, Sellers shall pay such Taxes at the time such Seller Prepared Return is filed.

(b) Except as otherwise provided in Section 10.02(a), Parent shall, at Parent’s expense, cause to be prepared and timely filed all Tax Returns of the Company that are required to be filed after the Closing Date that relate to any period prior to the Closing Date including, but not limited to, Tax Returns for any Straddle Period. Purchaser shall furnish such Tax Returns to Agent for its review at least 20 days prior to the due date (including any extensions thereof) for filing such Tax Returns and Parent shall consider Agent’s comments in good faith. To the extent that the Taxes due with respect to any such Tax Return are not adequately provided for in determining the Final Working Capital, Sellers shall reimburse Parent for such Taxes within five (5) Business Days of Parent’s written request, to the extent such Taxes are attributable to any taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date (or any portion of a Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date).

10.03

Cooperation.

(a) Each of the Parties shall provide each other with such assistance as may reasonably be requested by any other Party in connection with the preparation of any Tax Return or any Tax Contest. Such assistance shall include making employees available on a mutually convenient basis, and at no cost to the requesting Party, to provide additional information or explanation of material provided hereunder and shall include providing copies of relevant Tax Returns and supporting material.

(b) Parent shall or shall cause Company and its Subsidiaries to (i) retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Company relating to Pre-Closing Tax Period until the expiration of the statute of limitations (including any extensions thereof) applicable to such taxable periods, and to abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any Governmental Authority, and (ii) provide Agent with reasonable written notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any such books and records and, if Agent so requests, Parent will allow Agent to take possession of such books and records.

10.04 Tax Contests. In the event that any Governmental Authority informs a Party of any audit, litigation, dispute, or other proceeding with respect to Taxes attributable to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period (collectively, a “Tax Contest”), the Party so informed shall notify the other Party of such matter promptly, and in all events within five (5) Business Days, after receiving notice of such Tax Contest; provided that failure to promptly notify shall not reduce the other Party’s indemnity obligation hereunder except to the extent such Party’s ability to defend against such matter is actually prejudiced thereby. Agent shall, at Sellers’ cost and expense, control the conduct and defense of any Tax Contest relating to Tax matters of the Company for periods ending on or before the Closing Date, and Agent shall, at Sellers’ cost and expense, control the conduct and defense of any Tax Contest relating to Tax matters of the Company for any Straddle Period; provided, however, Parent may, at its option, elect to jointly control such Tax Contest, at its own cost and expense, related to any Straddle Period and, if the Company could be held liable for any Tax obligations related thereto, any Pre-Closing Tax Period. Each Party shall, however, keep the other Party informed of all developments on a timely basis, shall provide the other Party with copies of any and all written correspondence received from the Governmental Authority related to such Tax Contest and shall provide the other Party with the opportunity to attend conferences, hearings and other meetings with or involving the Governmental Authority and to review and provide comments with respect to written responses provided to the Governmental Authority with respect to such Tax Contest. Each Party shall consult the other Party and obtain the other Party’s consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) prior to accepting any proposed adjustment or entering into any settlement or agreement in compromise regarding any Taxes to the extent such proposed adjustment, settlement or agreement in compromise would give rise to an indemnification obligation pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

10.05 Refunds. Any refund or other overpayment of Taxes (including any interest with respect thereto) of the Company for any period ending on or prior to the Closing Date (including refunds attributable to the portion of any Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date) shall, to the extent such Tax refund, overpayment and/or interest is not reflected as an asset in Final Working Capital, be the property of the Sellers, net of any expenses. If Parent or the Company receives any such Tax refund, overpayment, or interest after the Closing Date, Parent shall, or shall cause the Company to pay over such Tax refund, an amount equivalent to any overpayment and/or interest to the Sellers, to the extent such Tax refund, overpayment and/or interest is not reflected as an asset in Final Working Capital, within five (5) Business Days of receipt of such Tax refund, net of any expenses.

10.06 Post-Closing Actions. Unless required by a change in circumstance or Law occurring after the Closing Date, without the advance written consent of the Agent, neither the Company, Parent nor any of their respective Affiliates shall: (a) (i) initiate contact with any Governmental Authorities in relevant jurisdictions to disclose any actual or potential inaccuracies, errors or omissions relating to how the Company dealt with its Tax reporting obligations prior to the Closing Date; (iii) change any election made by the Company prior to the Closing Date with respect to Taxes; or (ii) file any Tax Return for or on behalf of the Company that was not filed by the Company prior to the Closing Date, if a reasonably foreseeable consequence of any such action would be to increase any of the Sellers’ potential liability to either make indemnification payments under this Agreement or result in the imposition of additional liability for Taxes on such Seller, or (b) file any written agreement setting forth the terms of a remediation framework (the “Framework”) relating to any sales and use Taxes arising prior to the Closing Date, unless mutually agreed upon and negotiated in good faith by the Parties.

10.07 Transfer Taxes. All transfer, sales, use, documentary, property, or similar Taxes applicable to, imposed upon or arising out of the transfer of the Membership Interests or any other transaction contemplated by this Agreement (“Transfer Taxes”) shall be paid 50% by Purchaser and 50% by the Sellers.

10.08 Adjustments to Purchase Price. All payments by any Sellers to Purchaser or by Purchaser/Parent or the Company after the Closing to any Seller under this ARTICLE X shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price, unless otherwise required by applicable Law.

10.09 Allocation of Purchase Price. Purchaser and the Sellers agree that the Purchase Price (including assumed liabilities) shall be allocated among the assets of the Company based upon the fair market values thereof in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code. Within the latter of 90 calendar days after the Closing Date or determination of the Final Working Capital Amount, Parent shall cause to be delivered to Agent the initial asset allocation statement on Internal Revenue Service Form 8594 (or successor form) on a basis consistent with the principles set forth on Schedule 10.09 (the “Initial Allocation”). Agent shall have the right to review and raise any objections with Parent in writing to the Initial Allocation within 30 calendar days after the receipt thereof. If Agent does not timely raise any objections, the Initial Allocation shall become the “Final Allocation.” If Agent disagrees with respect to any material item in the Initial Allocation, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to resolve the dispute. If the Parties are unable, within 20 calendar days after receipt by Parent of such notice of objections, to resolve the disputed items, such disputed items will be referred to the Accounting Firm and, except as set forth specifically in this Section 10.09, the procedures set forth in Section 2.04(c) shall be followed and apply with respect to such dispute mutatis mutandis. The Accounting Firm shall, within 60 calendar days, deliver to Parent and Agent a written report setting forth its determination as to such disputed items (and only such disputed items), and its determinations will be conclusive and binding upon the Parties thereto for purposes of the Final Allocation. The Accounting Firm’s fees, costs and expenses shall be borne equally by each Party. Parent and the Sellers agree to report the transactions contemplated herein in accordance with the Final Allocation for all Tax reporting purposes and to not take any position during the course of any audit or other proceeding inconsistent with the Final Allocation, unless required by a final non-appealable determination of the applicable Governmental Authority.

11.05

Claim Procedure/Notice of Claim.

(a) A Purchaser Indemnitee or Seller Indemnitee entitled or seeking to assert rights to indemnification under this ARTICLE XI (an “Indemnified Party”) shall give prompt written notification (a “Claim Notice”) to Agent (on behalf of the Sellers) or Purchaser, as applicable, from whom indemnification is sought (an “Indemnifying Party”) which contains (i) a copy of all papers served, if any, and a statement that the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification under this ARTICLE XI for such Losses and a reasonable explanation of the basis therefor and (ii) the amount or, if not then reasonably determinable, the estimated amount, determined in good faith, of the Loss arising from such claim (the “Claimed Amount”); provided, however, that no delay or deficiency on the part of the Indemnified Party in so notifying the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability or obligation hereunder, unless the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such delay, deficiency or failure. In the event that the Indemnified Party is entitled or seeking rights to indemnification under this ARTICLE XI which is not related to a third party claim, the provisions of Sections 11.05(a)-(c) shall govern.

(b) Within 30 days after delivery of a Claim Notice, the Indemnifying Party shall deliver to the Indemnified Party a written response (the “Response”) in which the Indemnifying Party shall either: (i) agree that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive all of the Claimed Amount; (ii) dispute that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive any or all of the Claimed Amount; or (iii) indicate that the Indemnifying Party does not yet have, and does not expect to have within such 30-day period, sufficient information to determine whether the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive any or all the Claimed Amount (in the event of clause (ii) or (iii), the response shall be referred to as an “Claim Objection Notice”). If no response is delivered by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party within such 30-day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have agreed that an amount equal to the entire Claimed Amount shall be payable to the Indemnified Party and such Claimed Amount shall be promptly (and in any event within ten Business Days) paid to the Indemnified Party.

(c) In the event that following delivery of a Claim Objection Notice the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party are unable to agree on whether Losses exist or on the amount of such Losses or on whether the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification hereunder for any or all such Losses within the 30-day period after delivery of a Claim Objection Notice, either the Indemnified Party or the Indemnifying Party may (but is not required to) petition or file an action in a court of competent jurisdiction for resolution of such dispute.

(d) In the event that the Indemnified Party is entitled or is seeking to assert rights to indemnification under this ARTICLE XI relating to a third party claim, the provisions of Section 11.05(d)-(g) shall apply. In such event, the Indemnified Party shall give written notification to the Indemnifying Party of the commencement of any suit or other legal proceeding relating to such third party claim. Such notification shall be given as soon as reasonably practicable, but in all cases within 30 days after receipt by the Indemnified Party of notice of such suit or proceeding, shall be accompanied by reasonable supporting documentation submitted by such third party (to the extent then in the possession of the Indemnified Party) and shall describe in reasonable detail (to the extent known by the Indemnified Party) the facts constituting the basis for such suit or proceeding and the amount of the claimed Losses, if then known; provided, however, that no delay or deficiency on the part of the Indemnified Party in so notifying the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability or obligation hereunder except to the extent of any liability caused by or arising out of such delay, deficiency or failure. If a third party claim is brought against an Indemnified Party and it gives proper notice to the Indemnifying Party of the commencement of such third party claim, the Indemnifying Party will, unless the claim involves Taxes, be entitled to participate in such third party claim and, to the extent that it wishes (unless (i) any Seller Party (if any Seller is the Indemnifying Party) or Parent or its Affiliates (if Parent or its Affiliates is the Indemnifying Party) is also a party to such third party claim and the Indemnified Party determines in good faith that joint representation would be inappropriate or (ii) the Indemnifying Party fails to provide reasonable assurance to the Indemnified Party of its financial capacity to defend such third party claim and provide indemnification with respect to such third party claim) to assume the defense of such third party claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and, after notice from the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume the defense of such third party claim, the Indemnifying Party shall not, as long as it actively and diligently conducts such defense, be liable to the Indemnified Party under this ARTICLE XI for any fees of other counsel or any other expenses with respect to the defense of such third party claim, in each case incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense of such third party claim for the period that the Indemnifying Party is actively defending such claim.

(e) If proper notice is given to an Indemnifying Party of the commencement of any third party claim and the Indemnifying Party does not, within thirty (30) days after the Indemnified Party’s notice is given, give notice to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume the defense of such third party claim: (i) the Indemnified Party will thereafter consult with the Indemnifying Party upon the Indemnifying Party’s reasonable request for such consultation from time to time with respect to such claim or Proceeding; (ii) if the Indemnifying Party does later deliver to the Indemnified Party the aforementioned written acknowledgement, then the Indemnifying Party will have the right to assume control of such defense and appoint lead counsel for the remainder of such defense, which counsel shall be reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party, or the Indemnifying Party may retain and direct the lead counsel previously retained by the Indemnified Party, and the Indemnifying Party will no longer be required to pay the fees and expenses of counsel retained by the Indemnified Party (unless such counsel is retained as lead counsel by the Indemnifying Party) so long as the Indemnified Party shall reasonably cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in any transition of such lead counsel; (iii) the Indemnifying Party will thereafter consult with the Indemnified Party upon the Indemnified Party’s reasonable request for such consultation from time to time with respect to such claim or Proceeding; and (iv) the Indemnified Party shall not compromise, discharge or settle or admit liability in connection with such claims without the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed unless such settlement or compromise includes provision for non-monetary relief).

(f) If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a third party claim: (i) no compromise, discharge or settlement of, or admission of liability in connection with, such claims may be effected by the Indemnifying Party without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent unless (A) there is no finding or admission of any violation of any Legal Requirement or any violation of the rights of any Person and no effect on any other claims that may be made against the Indemnified Party, and (B) the sole relief provided is monetary damages which are paid fully by the Indemnifying Party; (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall have no liability with respect to any compromise or settlement of such claims effected by the Indemnified Party without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party; and (iii) the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in all reasonable respects with the Indemnifying Party in connection with such defense, and shall have the right to participate, at the Indemnified Party’s sole expense, in such defense, with counsel selected by it. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Indemnifying Party fails to conduct the defense or handling of any third party claim in good faith after having assumed such defense or handling, then the Indemnifying Party shall no longer have the right to defend such third party claim and the provisions of Section 11.05(d) shall govern.

(g) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Indemnified Party determines in good faith that there is a reasonable probability that a third party claim may materially adversely affect it other than as a result of monetary damages for which it could be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party may, by notice to the Indemnifying Party, assume the exclusive right to defend, compromise, or settle such third party claim. The Indemnified Party shall not enter into any compromise or settlement in connection with any such third party claim without the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent unless (i) there is no finding or admission of any violation of any Legal Requirement or any violation of the rights of any Person and no effect on any other claims that may be made against the Indemnifying Party, and (ii) the sole relief for which Indemnifying Party is responsible is monetary damages.

(h) Nothing in this Section 11.05 shall control a Tax Contest which shall be governed by Section 10.04.

11.06

Limitations on Liability.

(a) Basket. Purchaser Indemnitees shall not be entitled to indemnification arising under or related to Section 11.02(a) unless the aggregate amount of all Losses for which indemnification under such section sought by the Purchaser Indemnitees collectively exceeds $750,000 (the “Basket”), whereupon the Purchaser Indemnitees shall be entitled to indemnification for all such Losses in excess of $500,000. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Basket shall not be applicable to any Losses resulting from, arising out of or related to fraud, willful misconduct or willful breach.

(b) Caps.

(i) The Sellers shall have no liability, in the aggregate, under Section 11.01 and Section 11.02 in excess of $6,500,000; provided, however, such limitation shall not apply to Sections 11.01(b) and (d) and 11.02(b), (d), (e) and (f). The Sellers shall have no liability under Sections 11.01(b) and (d) and 11.02(b), (d), (e) and (f) in excess of the Purchase Price, in the aggregate.

(c) No Double Indemnity.

(d) Effect of Knowledge. Except with respect to matters known to Parent, Purchaser, any Affiliate of Parent or Purchaser or any of their respective Representatives as of the date of this Agreement involving, or otherwise related to compliance (for failure to comply) with U.S. and foreign tax Laws relating to any withholding tax due or payable with respect to a foreign Person, the right to indemnification or any other remedy based on representations, warranties, covenants and agreements in this Agreement shall not be affected by any investigation, inquiry or examination conducted at any time, or any knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired) at any time, whether before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the Closing Date. The waiver of any condition based on the accuracy of any representation or warranty, or on the performance of or compliance with any such covenant or agreements, will not affect the right to indemnification or any other remedy based on such representations, warranties, covenants and agreements.

11.07 Exclusive Remedies. Following the Closing, the rights and remedies of the Parties under this ARTICLE XI are exclusive and in lieu of any and all other rights and remedies which the Parties may have under this Agreement or otherwise against each other with respect to the Transaction and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement for monetary relief with respect to any breach of any representation or warranty or any failure to perform any covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement, other than those which arise from fraud or willful misconduct, and each Party expressly waives any and all other rights or causes of action it or its Affiliates may have against the other Party or its Affiliates now or in the future under any Law with respect to the subject matter hereof.

11.08

Satisfaction of Claims.

(a) Each Seller’s indemnification obligation for Losses suffered by any Purchaser Indemnitee for which such Purchaser Indemnitee is entitled to payment under this ARTICLE XI shall be satisfied, at Parent’s sole option, by any one or more of the following:

(i) Parent shall be entitled to set off the amount of such Loss against the aggregate amount of any Earn-Out Payment earned but unpaid to Seller pursuant to Section 2.06.

(ii) Parent shall be entitled to determine the amount, if any, of such Loss to be satisfied from funds then remaining in the General Escrow Account, and Parent and Agent shall submit joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent to release such funds to the Purchaser Indemnitee pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement.

(iii) Parent shall be entitled to require Seller to tender to Parent or its Affiliates, and Parent or its Affiliates shall redeem from such Seller, that number of shares of the Stock Consideration received hereunder having a value equal to up to the amount of Losses to be satisfied. Solely for the purposes of determining the number of shares of Stock Consideration to be tendered and redeemed, the Stock Consideration shall be deemed to have a value per share equal to the average trading price of the Parent’s common stock over the previous 20 trading day period (subject to adjustment to reflect any stock split, stock dividend, or the like with respect to the Stock Consideration prior to the redemption date).

(iv) If the remedies under Sections 11.08(a)(i)-(iii) are insufficient to satisfy such Loss, then Sellers shall pay to such Purchaser Indemnitee any remaining amount due by wire transfer of immediately available funds.

(b) Within ten Business Days after final resolution pursuant to Section 11.05 of any indemnification claim by any Purchaser Indemnitee hereunder, Parent shall notify Agent of the manner of satisfaction of such Loss with respect to each Seller.

11.09 Escrow Period; Release from Escrow. The funds in the General Escrow Account, if any, shall become available for distribution to the Seller on the Release Date. As soon as reasonably practicable after the Release Date, Parent and Agent shall submit joint written instructions (if necessary) to the Escrow Agent and the Escrow Agent shall pay to the Sellers in accordance with each Seller’s Pro Rata Share any funds remaining in the General Escrow Account subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any portion of the General Escrow Account subject to any pending but unresolved indemnification claims set forth in a Claim Certificate delivered to the Escrow Agent prior to the Release Date shall only be released by the Escrow Agent and paid to the Sellers, or released to an Indemnified Party (as appropriate), in each case, following resolution of each specific indemnification claim involved.

11.10 Certain Matters Relating to Indemnification. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement:

(a) The amount of any Losses incurred or suffered by any Indemnified Party shall be calculated after giving effect to any insurance proceeds actually received by such Indemnified Party with respect to such Losses, less any related costs and expenses, including the aggregate cost of pursuing any related insurance claims and related increases in insurance premiums or other chargebacks. If any insurance proceeds are received by an Indemnified Party with respect to any Losses after the Indemnifying Party has made a payment to the Indemnified Party with respect thereto, the Indemnified Party shall pay to the Indemnifying Party the amount of such proceeds up to the amount of the Indemnifying Party’s payment to the Indemnified Party less any of the Indemnified Party’s related costs and expenses of recovering such insurance proceeds, including the aggregate cost of pursuing any related insurance claims and related increases in insurance premiums or other chargebacks. The Indemnified Party shall seek to recover insurance proceeds or any other amounts from third parties related to any Losses for which indemnification is sought pursuant to this ARTICLE XI only to the extent such Indemnified Party determines, in its sole discretion, that it is commercially reasonable for it to do so. Otherwise, no Indemnified Party shall have any obligation to seek to recover insurance proceeds or any other amounts from third parties in connection with making an indemnification claim under this ARTICLE XI or thereafter.

(b) No Party shall be entitled to make any claim for indemnification under this Agreement with respect to and to the extent of any specific item that is included in the determination of the Final Working Capital Amount and accrued for or reserved for on the Closing Statement.

Agent is hereby irrevocably appointed the agent and attorney in fact of the Sellers, and the initial Agent hereby accepts such appointment, to take the actions herein: (a) to consummate the transactions contemplated herein and to pay such Seller’s expenses incurred in connection with the negotiation and performance of this Agreement (whether occurred on or after the date of this Agreement); (b) to give and receive notices and communications; (c) to authorize or object to delivery to Parent, Purchaser or any other Purchaser Indemnitee of cash from the Working Capital Escrow Account or the General Escrow Account or in satisfaction of claims by Parent, Purchaser or any other Purchaser Indemnitee and to distribute any funds payable by Parent or Purchaser under this Agreement that are for the benefit of Sellers which are released from the Working Capital Escrow Account and the General Escrow Account for the benefit of the Sellers pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement; (d) to deduct and/or hold back any funds that may be payable to any Seller pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement in order to pay any amount that may be payable by such Seller hereunder, in each case on a basis consistent with their Pro Rata Share; (e) to make any determinations, agree to, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, any matters contemplated by this Agreement, including in connection with the determination or the adjustment of, or any other matter pertaining to, the Purchase Price or any Earn-Out Payment except for any breach by a Seller hereunder for which recovery sought may be beyond the General Escrow Amount; (f) to assert any claim to recover Losses of Sellers or other Seller Indemnitees, including claims related to Pre-Closing Taxes pursuant to ARTICLE X or for indemnification pursuant to ARTICLE XI; (g) to execute and deliver on behalf of such Seller any amendment or waiver to the terms of this Agreement or the Stock Purchase Agreement; (h) to retain funds for reasonably anticipated expenses and liabilities and to disburse funds to third parties for expenses and liabilities; (i) to take all actions necessary or appropriate in the judgment of Agent for the accomplishment of the foregoing; and (j) to do each and every act and exercise any and all rights which such Seller, or any or all of the Sellers collectively, are permitted or required to do or exercise under this agreement, provided that such Seller (and not Agent) shall control any and all claims against such Seller for breaches of such Seller’s representations and warranties set forth in ARTICLE III or any covenant of such Seller hereunder if not completely covered by the General Escrow Amount (and, as applicable, any Earn-Out Payment). A decision, act, consent or instruction of Agent shall constitute a decision of all Sellers and shall be final, binding and conclusive upon each such Seller, and the Escrow Agent, Parent and Purchaser may rely upon any decision, act, consent or instruction of Agent as being the decision, act, consent or instruction of each and every such Seller. The Escrow Agent, Parent and Purchaser are hereby irrevocably relieved from any Liability to any Person for any acts done by them in accordance with such decision, act, consent or instruction of Agent. All such actions shall be deemed to be facts ascertainable outside this Agreement and shall be binding on the Sellers as a matter of contract Law. This appointment of agency and this power of attorney is coupled with an interest and will be irrevocable and will not be terminated by any Seller or by operation of Law. A new Agent may be designated by the holders at Closing of a majority in interest of the Purchased Units upon not less than ten days’ prior written notice to Parent. No bond shall be required of Agent, and Agent shall receive no compensation for its services from Parent, Purchaser or any of their Affiliates after the Closing. Notices or communications to or from Agent shall constitute notice to or from each of the Sellers. Each Seller hereby agrees to receive correspondence from Agent, including by e-mail transmission to any e-mail address set forth in the notice provisions of this Agreement or subsequently provided to Agent by such Seller.

12.02 Liability of Agent. Agent shall not be liable for any act done or omitted hereunder as Agent while acting in good faith and in the exercise of reasonable judgment and any act done or omitted pursuant to the advice of counsel shall be conclusive evidence of such good faith. The Sellers shall jointly and severally indemnify and hold the Agent harmless against any loss, Liability or expense incurred without gross negligence or bad faith on the part of the Agent and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of its duties hereunder.

12.03 Reimbursement of Expenses; Payment. Upon the release of the General Escrow Amount, Agent shall be entitled to reimbursement of all reasonable expenses incurred by him or it in connection with fulfilling his or its duties as set forth in this Agreement from the General Escrow Account, but only to the extent of the General Escrow Amount that remains available for distribution after satisfaction of all obligations to Purchaser Indemnitees (including any potential obligations and pending claims set forth in any Claim Certificate) pursuant to ARTICLE XI hereof.

ARTICLE XIII

MISCELLANEOUS

13.01 No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall not confer any rights or remedies upon any Person other than the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns and the Indemnified Parties pursuant to ARTICLE XI; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Debt Financing Sources (and their respective Affiliates, equityholders, members, partners, officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors and Representatives) are express third party beneficiaries of this Section 13.01, Section 13.04, Section 13.06(a), Section 13.07 and Section 13.16.

13.02 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements (including the documents and schedules referred to herein and therein) constitutes the entire agreement among the Parties and supersedes any prior understandings, agreements, or representations by or among the Parties, written or oral, that may have related in any way to the subject matter hereof.

13.03 Succession and Assignment. This Agreement and all of the provisions hereof shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations of any Seller under this Agreement may be assigned or delegated, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise, by any Seller without the prior written consent of Parent, and any such assignment without such prior written consent shall be null and void, except that each of the Purchaser and Parent may assign its rights hereunder to the Debt Financing Sources, provided that such assignment shall not relieve Purchaser and Parent of their respective obligations hereunder.

13.04 Amendments and Waivers. Prior to the Closing, no amendment, modification or modification of any provision of this Agreement shall be valid unless the same shall be in writing and signed by each Seller, Company, and Parent; provided, however, that any waiver by a Party of a closing condition for its benefit pursuant to Sections 8.01, 8.02 and 8.03 shall only require a writing signed by such Party. None of Section 13.01, this Section 13.04, Section 13.04, Section 13.06(a), Section 13.07 and Section 13.16 shall be amended, modified, changed or waived in any way that would be adverse to the Debt Financing Sources unless such amendment or modification shall have been consented to in writing by the Debt Financing Sources. After the Closing, no amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be valid unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Agent, Parent and Purchaser. No waiver by any Party of any default, misrepresentation or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder, whether intentional or not, shall be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent default, misrepresentation or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any prior or subsequent such occurrence.

13.06 GOVERNING LAW; ARBITRATION.

(a) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE DOMESTIC LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ANY CHOICE OF LAW OR CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISION OR RULE (WHETHER OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK OR ANY OTHER JURISDICTION) THAT WOULD CAUSE THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANY JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE STATE OF NEW YORK. SUBJECT TO SECTION 13.06(B), THE PARTIES HEREBY CONSENT TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION AND VENUE OF ANY UNITED STATES FEDERAL COURT IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK OR ILLINOIS FOR ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND WAIVE ANY CLAIM THAT THIS VENUE IS AN INCONVENIENT FORUM.

(b) Except for disputes to be resolved by the Accounting Firm pursuant to Sections 2.04(c) and 2.06(d), all disputes relating to this Agreement arising after the Closing Date shall be submitted to binding arbitration before the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) or any other individual or organization on which the Parties agree in writing. Notwithstanding the above, any Party may file with an appropriate state or federal court a claim for injunctive relief in any case where the filing party seeks provisional injunctive relief or where permanent injunctive relief is not available in arbitration. The filing of a claim for injunctive relief in state or federal court shall not allow either party to raise any other claim outside of arbitration. It is understood that all Parties are hereby waiving the right to a jury trial. The arbitration shall be initiated in Chicago Illinois or New York, New York, or such other venue as the Parties may agree, and shall be administered by AAA under its Commercial Arbitration Rules before a single arbitrator mutually agreed upon by the Parties hereto. If the Parties cannot agree on a single arbitrator, then an arbitrator shall be selected in accordance with the rules of AAA. Each Party shall be entitled to take three depositions, engage in document discovery, propound interrogatory requests and to take any other discovery as is permitted by the arbitrator. In determining the extent of discovery, the arbitrator shall exercise discretion. The arbitrator shall render an award which conforms to the facts, as supported by competent evidence (except that the arbitrator may accept written declarations under penalty of perjury, in addition to live testimony), and the law as it would be applied by a court sitting in the State of New York or such other jurisdiction as the Parties may agree. The cost of arbitration shall be borne equally by the Parties; however, the arbitrator shall have the power, in his discretion, to award some or all of the costs of arbitration and reasonable attorneys’ fees to the prevailing Party. Any Party may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for entry of judgment on the arbitration award.

13.07 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY WAIVES ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN OR AMONG ANY OF THE PARTIES HERETO, WHETHER ARISING IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE, ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH, RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND/OR THE RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED AMONG THE PARTIES HEREUNDER.

13.08 Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction. If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision hereof is invalid or unenforceable, the Parties agree that the court making the determination of invalidity or unenforceability shall have the power to reduce the scope, duration or area of the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified after the expiration of the time within which the judgment may be appealed.

13.09 Remedies. Each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that each of the Parties would be damaged irreparably in the event any of the provisions of Sections 6.06 or 7.03 of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or otherwise are breached. Accordingly, each of the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of the provisions of Sections 6.06 or 7.03 of this Agreement and to enforce specifically Sections 6.06 or 7.03 of this Agreement and the terms and provisions thereof in any action instituted in any court of the United States or any state thereof having jurisdiction over the Parties and the matter, in addition to any other remedy to which it may be entitled, at law or in equity. Each Party hereby agrees that should any other Party institute any action or proceeding for injunctive or similar equitable relief to enforce the provisions of Sections 6.06 or 7.03, such Party waives and agrees not to assert the claims or defenses that the other Party has an adequate remedy at law or that such Party will not suffer irreparable damage. All remedies hereunder shall be cumulative.

13.10 Construction. The Parties have jointly participated in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event of an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties and no presumptions or burdens of proof shall arise favoring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement. The Parties intend that each representation, warranty, and covenant contained herein shall have independent significance. If any Party has breached any representation, warranty or covenant contained herein in any respect, the fact that there exists another representation, warranty or covenant relating to the same subject matter (regardless of the relative levels of specificity) that the Party has not breached shall not detract from or mitigate the fact that the Party is in breach of the first representation, warranty or covenant. The recitals, annexes, exhibits, schedules and other attachments hereto identified in this Agreement are incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof.

13.11 Interpretation. (a) Any capitalized terms used in any schedule or exhibit attached hereto and not otherwise defined therein shall have the meanings set forth in this Agreement, (b) whenever required by the context, any pronoun used in this Agreement shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine or neuter forms, and the singular form of nouns, pronouns and verbs shall include the plural and vice versa; (c) the terms “hereof,” “herein,” “hereof,” “hereto” and “hereunder” and terms of similar import are references to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement; (d) section, clause, schedule and exhibit references contained in this Agreement are references to sections, clauses, schedules and exhibits in or to this Agreement, unless otherwise specified; (e) the terms “includes,” “including” and similar terms shall be deemed to mean “including, without limitation,”; (f) the use of “or” is not intended to be exclusive, unless expressly indicated otherwise; (g) reference to any Person includes such Person’s successors and assigns to the extent such successors and assigns are permitted by the terms of any applicable agreement, and reference to a Person in a particular capacity excludes such Person in any other capacity or individually; (h) reference to any agreement (including this Agreement), document or instrument shall mean such agreement, document or instrument as amended, modified or supplemented and in effect from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof and, if applicable, the terms hereof; and (i) for the avoidance of doubt, any subtraction of a negative number or amount hereunder shall be equal to the addition of the absolute value of such negative number or amount.

13.12 Headings. The section headings contained in this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

13.13 Expenses. Seller or the Company (prior to the Closing) on the one hand, and Parent, Purchaser or the Company (after the Closing) on the other hand shall pay all of their own expenses (including attorneys’ and accountants’ fees and expenses) in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement, the performance of the Parties’ respective obligations hereunder and the consummation of the Transaction and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except as otherwise expressly provided herein.

13.14 Electronic Delivery; Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement and each other agreement or instrument entered into in connection herewith and any amendments hereto, to the extent signed and delivered by means of facsimile or other electronic transmission (including .pdf files), shall be treated in all manner and respects and for all purposes as an original agreement or instrument and shall be considered to have the same binding legal effect as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person. No Party to any such agreement or instrument shall raise the use of facsimile or other electronic transmission to deliver a signature or the fact that any signature or agreement or instrument was transmitted or communicated through the use of facsimile or other electronic transmission as a defense to the formation or enforceability of a contract and each such Party forever waives any such defense.

13.15 Provisions Respecting Legal Representation. Each of Parties hereto agrees, on its own behalf and on behalf of its directors, members, partners, officers, employees and Affiliates, that Ungaretti & Xxxxxx LLP has served as counsel to the Company, on the one hand, and the Sellers or any of their respective Affiliates (other than the Company), on the other hand, in connection with negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, and that, following consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, Ungaretti & Xxxxxx LLP (or any successor thereof) may serve as counsel to the Sellers or any Affiliate of the Sellers in connection with any litigation, claim or obligation arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement notwithstanding such representation, and each of the Parties hereto hereby consents thereto and waives any conflict of interest arising therefrom, and each of such Parties shall cause any Affiliate thereof to consent to waive any conflict of interest arising from such representation.
