On the terms and subject to the conditions contained herein, at the Closing, each Common Holder shall sell to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser shall purchase from such Common Holder, the number of Common Shares shown opposite such Common Holder’s name, respectively, on Schedule 1.1 for a price per share equal to the Per Share Common Consideration. The Per Share Common Consideration to be received at the Closing by each Common Holder in respect of all of the Common Shares held by such Common Holder immediately prior to the Closing shall, pursuant to Section 1.6(c) and Section 2.2(c)(iii), be reduced by (A) such Common Holder’s Pro Rata Escrow Portion of the Escrow Amounts in respect of such Common Shares, and (B) such Common Holder’s Pro Rata Escrow Portion of the Securityholder Expense Amount in respect of such Common Shares. 1.2 Sale and Purchase of Common Warrants. On the terms and subject to the conditions contained herein, at the Closing, each Common Warrant Holder shall sell to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser shall purchase from each such Common Warrant Holder, each Common Warrant. Thereafter, no Common Warrant Holder shall have any rights in respect thereof other than the right to receive therefor an amount in cash at the Closing pursuant to Section 2.2(c)(iv), amounts payable under Section 6.4(j) and Section 6.4(k) and a contingent right to receive an amount out of the Escrow Fund and/or the Holdback Account, and the Purchaser shall pay (or shall cause to be paid), pursuant to Section 1.6(c) and Section 2.2(c)(iv), an amount in cash to such Common Warrant Holder (or for its benefit) equal to the product of (i) the number of Common Warrant Shares pursuant to each such Common Warrant as of immediately prior to the Closing and (ii) the excess, if any, of the Per Share Common Consideration over the exercise price per share for each such Common Warrant Share (the “Common Warrant Consideration”). The Common Warrant Consideration to be received at the Closing by each Common Warrant Holder in respect of all of the Common Warrant Shares held by such Common Warrant Holder immediately prior to the Closing shall, pursuant to Section 1.6(c) and Section 2.2(c)(iv), be reduced by (A) such Common Warrant Holder’s Pro Rata Escrow Portion of the Escrow Amounts in respect of such Common Warrant Shares, and (B) such Common Warrant Holder’s Pro Rata Escrow Portion of the Securityholder Expense Amount in respect of such Common Warrant Shares.

3 1.3 Company Stock Options; Incentive Bonus Payments. (a) Prior to the Closing, the Company and the Purchaser, as applicable, shall take all action necessary to ensure that at the Closing, each outstanding and unexercised Company Stock Option (whether vested and exercisable or unvested and un-exercisable) shall be canceled, shall be of no further force and effect with no payment or other liability of the Company and/or the Purchaser therefor or in respect thereof and shall cease to represent the right to exercise any such Company Stock Option (whether by passage of time or otherwise) for any shares of capital stock of the Company. Thereafter, no holder of any such Company Stock Option (each, an “Option Holder,” and collectively, the “Option Holders”) shall have any rights in respect thereof. (b) At the Closing, the Purchaser shall pay to the Company an amount equal to the aggregate Incentive Bonus Payments pursuant to Section 2.2(c)(v). All consideration to be paid to Award Participants in respect of Awards pursuant to Section 2.2(c)(v) and/or Section 1.5(e), subject to the following sentence, (i) shall be treated as compensation paid by the Company as and when received by the Award Participants (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall be the Closing Date, with respect to consideration paid pursuant to Section 2.2(c)(v), and when released from escrow (if at all), in the case of the Escrow Amounts) and otherwise when payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, (ii) shall be made through the payroll systems of the Company (or the applicable Subsidiary) at the time such payment is made and (iii) shall be net of any required withholding Taxes. The portion of the Securityholder Expense Amount attributable to Incentive Bonus Payments shall be treated as compensation paid to the Award Participants on the Closing Date when paid to the Securityholder Representative pursuant to Section 1.6(b), and any applicable withholding Taxes with respect to such amount shall be withheld from other payments received by the Award Participants at the Closing. For the avoidance of doubt, any amounts released from the Holdback Account to the Award Participants as contemplated in Section 9.9(g) shall have already been treated as compensation paid by the Company (or the applicable Subsidiary), and shall not be subject to employment withholding Taxes a second time. From and after the Closing, the Purchaser, the Company and each Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Securityholder Representative shall be entitled to make any and all determinations under the Incentive Bonus Plan as if the Securityholder Representative was the Board (as defined in the Incentive Bonus Plan). Any and all amounts withheld from an Incentive Bonus Payment at Closing pursuant to Section 2.2(c)(v) and placed into an Escrow Account and/or the Holdback Account, shall be available for use in satisfying any obligations owed by the Sellers pursuant to terms of this Agreement to the same extent as if such Award Participant was a Seller for such purposes. 1.4 Aggregate Purchase Price for Common Shares and Common Warrants. The aggregate purchase consideration to be paid hereunder to the Common Holders for the sale of the Common Shares and to the Common Warrant Holders for the sale of the Common Warrants shall equal the sum (if, but only if, such sum is a positive number) of: (a) the Aggregate Purchase Price minus (b) the Aggregate Preferred Consideration (such sum, if, but only if, a positive number, the “Common Consideration”).

4 1.5 Sale and Purchase of Preferred Shares and Preferred Warrant Shares. (a) On the terms and subject to the conditions contained herein, at the Closing, each Preferred Holder shall sell to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser shall purchase from such Preferred Holder, the number of Preferred Shares shown opposite of such Preferred Holder’s name on Schedule 1.1 for the consideration set forth in Section 1.5(b) below. (b) At the Closing, the Purchaser shall pay to each Preferred Holder, in respect of each Preferred Share held by such Preferred Holder immediately prior to the Closing, an amount equal to the sum of (i) One Thousand Dollars ($1,000) per Preferred Share plus (ii) the aggregate amount of all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon with respect to such Preferred Share as of the Closing Date (with respect to each Preferred Share, the “Per Share Preferred Consideration”; the sum of the Per Share Preferred Consideration to be paid to each Preferred Holder in respect of all Preferred Shares held by such holder is such Preferred Holder’s “Preferred Consideration”). The Preferred Consideration to be received at the Closing by each Preferred Holder in respect of each Preferred Share held by such Preferred Holder immediately prior to the Closing shall, pursuant to Section 1.6(c) and Section 2.2(c)(i), be reduced by such Preferred Holder’s Escrow Shortfall Pro Rata Portion of the Escrow Shortfall Amount (if any) in respect of such Preferred Holder’s Preferred Shares. (c) On the terms and subject to the conditions contained herein, at the Closing, the Preferred Warrant Holder shall sell to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser shall purchase from the Preferred Warrant Holder, the Preferred Warrant for the consideration set forth in Section 1.5(d) below. (d) At the Closing, the Purchaser shall pay to the Preferred Warrant Holder, an amount equal to the Per Share Preferred Consideration minus the exercise price per share pursuant to the Preferred Warrant (the “Preferred Warrant Consideration”, and, the aggregate Preferred Warrant Consideration payable hereunder together with the aggregate Preferred Consideration payable hereunder, the “Aggregate Preferred Consideration”). The Preferred Warrant Consideration to be received at the Closing by the Preferred Warrant Holder in respect of each Preferred Warrant Share held by the Preferred Warrant Holder immediately prior to Closing shall, pursuant to Section 1.6(c) and Section 2.2(c)(ii), be reduced by the Preferred Warrant Holder’s Escrow Shortfall Pro Rata Portion of the Escrow Shortfall Amount (if any) in respect of the Preferred Warrant Holder’s Preferred Warrant Shares. (e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, subject to Section 1.9, (A) if there was an Escrow Shortfall Amount, then any amounts payable to the Securityholders (or Sellers, if applicable) under this Agreement (including Section 1.8, Section 1.10, Section 6.4 and ARTICLE VIII), and/or distributable to any Securityholder (or Seller, if applicable) out of any Escrow Account or the Holdback Account, shall instead be paid to each Preferred Holder, Preferred Warrant Holder and Award Participant, on a pro rata basis based on each such holder’s or Award Participant’s Escrow Shortfall Pro Rata Portion, until such time as each Preferred Holder has received the full amount of its respective Preferred Consideration, the Preferred Warrant Holder has received the full amount of its Preferred Warrant Consideration and each Award Participant has received the full amount of its Incentive Bonus Payment (with any payment of any Incentive Bonus Payment to be paid to the Company for further payment to the

5 applicable Award Participant in accordance with Section 1.3(b)), and (B) all amounts owed to the Preferred Holders, the Preferred Warrant Holder and the Award Participants pursuant to this Section 1.5(e) shall be paid by the Purchaser, or distributed out of the Escrow Accounts or Holdback Account, prior to any payment to be made to any Common Holder in respect of such Common Holder’s Common Shares or any Common Warrant Holder in respect of such Common Warrant Holder’s Common Warrants. 1.6 Escrow Account; Securityholder Expense Amount Holdback. (a) At the Closing, the Purchaser shall deliver to U.S. Bank National Association, as escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”), under the escrow agreement dated the Closing Date, by and among the Purchaser, the Securityholder Representative and the Escrow Agent, substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto (the “Escrow Agreement”), the Indemnity Escrow Amount, the Net Working Capital Escrow Amount, and an amount equal to the Special Escrow Amount. The Indemnity Escrow Amount shall be held in an escrow account (the “Indemnity Escrow Account”) in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement and released and paid on the fifteen (15) month anniversary of Closing Date (the “Escrow Termination Date”) in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement. The Net Working Capital Escrow Amount shall be held in an escrow account (the “Net Working Capital Escrow Account”) in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement and released and paid in accordance with the terms of Section 1.8(e). The Special Escrow Amount shall be held in an escrow account (the “Special Escrow Account” and, together with the Indemnity Escrow Account and the Net Working Capital Escrow Account, the “Escrow Accounts”) in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement and released and paid in accordance with the terms of ARTICLE VIII and the Escrow Agreement. The Escrow Agreement shall provide that the Net Working Capital Escrow Account shall be used only in connection with any amount payable to the Purchaser pursuant to Section 1.8(e)(i), that the Indemnity Escrow Account and the Special Escrow Account shall be used to satisfy valid claims for Losses made by the Purchaser pursuant and subject to ARTICLE VIII hereof. All Parties hereto agree that except as otherwise required pursuant to a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code: (i) the right of the Sellers and Award Participants to the Escrow Amounts shall be treated as deferred contingent purchase price eligible for installment treatment under Section 453 of the Code and any corresponding provision of foreign, state or local Law, as appropriate, (ii) the Purchaser shall be treated as the owner of the Escrow Accounts, and all interest and earnings earned from the investment and reinvestment of the Escrow Amounts, or any portion thereof, shall be allocable to the Purchaser pursuant to Section 468B(g) of the Code and Proposed Treasury Regulation Section 1.468B-8, (iii) if and to the extent any amount of the Escrow Amounts is actually distributed to the Sellers, interest may be imputed on such amount payable to the Sellers, as required by Section 483 or 1274 of the Code and (iv) in no event shall the aggregate Escrow Amounts released to the Sellers exceed $45,000,000.00. Clause (iv) of the preceding sentence is intended to ensure that the right of the Sellers to the Escrow Amounts and any interest and earnings earned thereon is not treated as a contingent payment without a stated maximum selling price under Section 453 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder. (b) At the Closing, the Purchaser shall deliver to the Securityholder Representative an amount equal to Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) (the “Securityholder Expense Amount”). The Securityholder Expense Amount shall be held in an

6 account maintained by the Securityholder Representative (the “Holdback Account”) for the Securityholder Representative to hold on behalf of the Sellers and Award Participants as a fund for any out-of-pocket fees and expenses (including legal, accounting and other advisors’ fees and expenses, if applicable) incurred by the Securityholder Representative in its capacity as the Securityholder Representative, all in accordance with Section 9.9(g). The Holdback Account shall not be required to be invested, or be required to earn interest or other income. (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the provisions of Section 2.2(c)(iii) and Section 2.2(c)(iv) shall be applied in a manner such that the Per Share Common Consideration and Common Warrant Consideration payable to each Securityholder pursuant to such provisions shall be (X) reduced on a pro-rata basis amongst the Securityholders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Escrow Portions, and (Y) reduced only until such time as either (i) the aggregate reductions pursuant to Section 2.2(c)(iii) and Section 2.2(c)(iv) equal the sum of the Escrow Amounts plus the Securityholder Expense Amount, or (ii) the Per Share Common Consideration and Common Warrant Consideration payable to each Securityholder pursuant to such provisions has been reduced to zero (0); provided, however, that for the purposes hereof, the reductions pursuant to Section 2.2(c)(iii) and Section 2.2(c)(iv) shall first be made to fund the Escrow Amounts before any reductions are deemed to fund the Securityholder Expense Amount. Furthermore, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in the case, and only in the case, that the Per Share Common Consideration and Common Warrant Consideration payable to each Securityholder pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.2(c)(iii) and Section 2.2(c)(iv) has been reduced to zero (0) and the aggregate amount of Per Share Common Consideration and Common Warrant Consideration reduced pursuant to Section 2.2(c)(iii) and Section 2.2(c)(iv) is less than the aggregate amount of the sum of the Escrow Amounts plus the Securityholder’s Expense Amount (the amount of any such shortfall, the “Escrow Shortfall Amount”), then the provisions of Section 2.2(c)(i), Section 2.2(c)(ii) and Section 2.2(c)(v) that reduce payments thereunder in order to fund the Escrow Shortfall Amount shall apply on a pro-rata basis amongst the Preferred Holders, Preferred Warrant Holder and the Award Participants in accordance with their respective Escrow Shortfall Pro Rata Portions until such time as the aggregate amounts reduced pursuant to Section 2.2(c)(i), Section 2.2(c)(ii) and Section 2.2(c)(v) equal the Escrow Shortfall Amount. 1.7 Estimated Purchase Price Adjustment. No later than three (3) Business Days prior to the anticipated Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to the Purchaser a statement (the “Estimated Preliminary Statement”), prepared in good faith, setting forth an estimate of the Closing Date Net Working Capital Amount (the “Estimated Closing Date Net Working Capital Amount”) and the Estimated Target Net Working Capital Amount (including an updated Exhibit C reflecting the same), Net Working Capital May and Estimated Net Working Capital June. If the Estimated Closing Date Net Working Capital Amount exceeds the Estimated Target Net Working Capital Amount, the Initial Aggregate Purchase Price shall be increased dollar-for- dollar by the amount of such excess and if the Estimated Closing Date Net Working Capital Amount is less than the Estimated Target Net Working Capital Amount, the Initial Aggregate Purchase Price shall be reduced dollar-for-dollar by the amount of such shortfall. The amount (either positive or negative) equal to the Estimated Closing Date Net Working Capital Amount minus the Estimated Target Net Working Capital Amount shall be referred to herein as the “Estimated Purchase Price Adjustment.”

7 1.8 Purchase Price Adjustment. (a) The Purchaser shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Securityholder Representative, as soon as practicable, but in no event more than sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, (i) a consolidated balance sheet of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of 12:01 a.m. Chicago time on the Closing Date audited by Deloitte (the “Closing Balance Sheet”), with the costs and expenses of such audit to be paid by Purchaser, and (ii) a preliminary statement in the same form as the Estimated Preliminary Statement (the “Preliminary Statement”) setting forth the calculation of the Closing Date Net Working Capital Amount as derived from the Closing Balance Sheet, and the Target Net Working Capital Amount (including an updated Exhibit C reflecting the same), Net Working Capital May and Net Working Capital June, in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii), along with reasonable supporting detail to evidence the calculations of such amounts. The Closing Balance Sheet and related statements of income, retained earnings and cash flows, the Preliminary Statement, the Closing Date Net Working Capital Amount and all of the calculations and amounts set forth therein shall be prepared in good faith and in accordance with the Agreed Accounting Principles. (b) The Securityholder Representative shall have sixty (60) days to review the Preliminary Statement from the date of its receipt thereof (the “Review Period”). During the Review Period, the Securityholder Representative shall have reasonable access during normal business hours to the books and records and personnel and advisors of the Company and its Subsidiaries to the extent required in connection with such review. If the Securityholder Representative objects to any aspect of the Preliminary Statement, the Securityholder Representative must deliver a written notice of such objection (the “Objection Notice”) to the Purchaser on or prior to the expiration of the Review Period. If the Securityholder Representative delivers an Objection Notice to the Purchaser prior to the expiration of the Review Period as provided in this Section 1.8(b), the Purchaser and the Securityholder Representative shall, for a period of thirty (30) days thereafter (the “Resolution Period”), attempt in good faith to resolve the matters contained therein, and any written resolution, signed by each of the Purchaser and the Securityholder Representative, as to any such matter shall be final, binding, conclusive and non-appealable for all purposes hereunder. In the event the Securityholder Representative does not deliver an Objection Notice to the Purchaser as provided in this Section 1.8(b) prior to the expiration of the Review Period, the Sellers and Award Recipients shall be deemed to have agreed to the Preliminary Statement in its entirety, which Preliminary Statement or undisputed portions thereof (as the case may be) shall be final, binding, conclusive and non-appealable for all purposes hereunder. (c) If, at the conclusion of the Resolution Period, the Purchaser and the Securityholder Representative have not reached an agreement with respect to all disputed matters contained in the Objection Notice, then within ten (10) Business Days thereafter, the Purchaser and the Securityholder Representative shall submit for resolution those of such matters remaining in dispute to KPMG, or if such firm is unavailable or unwilling to so serve, to a mutually acceptable nationally recognized independent accounting firm (the “Neutral Arbitrator”). The Neutral Arbitrator shall act as an arbitrator to resolve (based solely on the written presentations of the Purchaser and the Securityholder Representative and not by independent review) only those matters submitted to it in accordance with the first sentence of this Section 1.8(c). The Purchaser and the Securityholder Representative shall direct the Neutral

8 Arbitrator to render a resolution of all such disputed matters within sixty (60) days after its engagement or such other period agreed upon in writing by the Purchaser and the Securityholder Representative. The resolution of the Neutral Arbitrator shall be set forth in a written statement delivered to each of the Parties and shall be final, binding, conclusive and non-appealable for all purposes hereunder. The Preliminary Statement, once modified and/or agreed to in accordance with Section 1.8(b) and/or this Section 1.8(c), shall become the “Final Statement.” (d) The Securityholder Representative shall, solely out of the Holdback Account, pay a portion of the fees and expenses of the Neutral Arbitrator equal to 100% multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount of disputed amounts submitted to the Neutral Arbitrator that are resolved in favor of Purchaser (that being the difference between the Neutral Arbitrator’s determination and the Securityholder Representative’s determination) and the denominator of which is the total amount of disputed amounts submitted to the Neutral Arbitrator (that being the sum total by which the Purchaser’s determination and the Securityholder Representative’s determination differ from the determination of the Neutral Arbitrator). The Purchaser shall pay that portion of the fees and expenses of the Neutral Arbitrator that the Securityholder Representative, on behalf of the Sellers, is not required to pay hereunder. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, all other costs and expenses incurred by the Parties in connection with resolving any dispute hereunder before the Neutral Arbitrator shall be borne by the Party incurring such cost and expense. (e) Amounts payable pursuant to the determination of the Closing Date Net Working Capital Amount and the Target Net Working Capital Amount on the Final Statement shall be paid and/or disbursed as follows: (i) If the Working Capital True-Up Amount is negative, then the Securityholder Representative and the Purchaser shall promptly, within three (3) Business Days after the date on which the Preliminary Statement becomes the Final Statement, execute and deliver a written instruction to the Escrow Agent to effectuate (A) disbursement to the Purchaser of (1) the lesser of the absolute value of the Working Capital True-Up Amount and the amount in the Net Working Capital Escrow Account from the Net Working Capital Escrow Account and (2) if the funds then contained in the Net Working Capital Escrow Account are less than the absolute value of the Working Capital True-Up Amount, then such difference from the Indemnity Escrow Account, and (B) if, after giving effect to the distributions made pursuant to clause (A)(1), any funds then remain in the Net Working Capital Escrow Account, disbursement of such remaining funds to the Securityholders, as instructed by the Securityholder Representative in accordance with Section 1.11 (subject to the prior application and satisfaction in full of the provisions of Section 1.5(e)), by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated in writing by each such Securityholder, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement. (ii) If the Working Capital True-Up Amount is positive, then the Purchaser shall pay to the Securityholders, as instructed by the Securityholder Representative in accordance with Section 1.11 (subject to the prior application and satisfaction in full of the provisions of Section 1.5(e) and Section 1.9), by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated in writing by each such Securityholder, in each case within three (3) Business Days after the date on which the Preliminary Statement becomes the Final Statement,

SUCH SELLER HAS NOT MADE, AND SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO HAVE MADE, ANY REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, OF ANY NATURE WHATSOEVER RELATING TO SUCH SELLER OR TO THE COMPANY OR ANY OF ITS SUBSIDIARIES OR THE BUSINESS OF THE COMPANY OR ANY OF ITS SUBSIDIARIES OR OTHERWISE IN CONNECTION WITH THE TRANSACTION, OTHER THAN THOSE REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS ARTICLE IV. ARTICLE V REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF PURCHASER The Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to the Company and each Seller as follows, in each case as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date: 5.1 Corporate Organization. The Purchaser is a corporation duly incorporated and validly existing under the Laws of State of Washington. The Purchaser has all requisite corporate power and authority to own or lease all of its properties and assets and to carry on its business as it is now being conducted. The Purchaser is duly qualified to do business in each jurisdiction in which the nature of its business or the ownership of its properties makes such qualification necessary, except for where such failures to be so qualified would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to delay or impair the Purchaser’s abilities to consummate the Transactions. 5.2 Authority and Validity. The Purchaser has all requisite power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to consummate the Transactions. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the Transactions have been duly and validly authorized by the Purchaser, and no other proceedings on the part of the Purchaser are necessary to approve this Agreement or to consummate the Transactions. This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Purchaser and (assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the Company and Sellers) constitutes a valid and binding obligation of each of the Purchaser, enforceable against the Purchaser in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited by the General Enforceability Exceptions. 5.3 No Violation. The execution, delivery and performance by the Purchaser of this Agreement does not, and the consummation of the Transactions by the Purchaser shall not, conflict with, or result in any violation of or default (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both) under, or give rise to a right of termination or cancellation under, any provision of (a) the Governing Documents of the Purchaser; (b) any applicable Laws or applicable Orders; (c) any Contract to which the Purchaser is a party or by which the Purchaser is bound or to which any of the Purchaser’s properties or assets is subject; or (d) any of the Permits granted by a

33 Governmental Entity to the Purchaser, other than, in the case of clauses (b), (c) and (d), such conflicts, violations, defaults, terminations or cancellations that would not reasonably be expected to impair or delay the Purchaser’s ability to consummate the Transactions. 5.4 Investment Intention. The Purchaser is acquiring the Preferred Shares, the Common Shares, the Preferred Warrant Shares and the Common Warrant Shares being sold hereunder for its own account, for investment purposes only and not with a view to the distribution (as such term is used in Section 2(11) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) thereof. The Purchaser understands that neither the Preferred Shares, the Common Shares, the Preferred Warrant Shares nor the Common Warrant Shares being sold hereunder have been registered under the Securities Act and cannot be sold unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available. The Purchaser is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) of the Securities Act. 5.5 Financial Capability; Solvency. The Purchaser shall have as of the Closing Date sufficient funds to be able to pay full Enterprise Value and any expenses incurred by the Purchaser in connection with the Transactions. The Purchaser has not incurred any obligation, commitment, restriction or liability of any kind that would impair or adversely affect such resources and capabilities. No transfer of property is being made and no obligation is being incurred in connection with the Transactions with the intent to hinder, delay or defraud either present or future creditors of the Purchaser, the Company or any of their respective subsidiaries. Immediately after giving effect to the Transactions, the Purchaser and its subsidiaries (including the Company and its Subsidiaries) shall be Solvent. As used herein, “Solvent” means, with respect to any Person, that (a) the assets of such Person, at a present fair saleable valuation, exceeds the sum of its debts (including contingent and unliquidated debts); (b) the present fair saleable value of the assets of such Person exceeds the amount that shall be required to pay such Person’s probable liability on its existing debts as they become absolute and matured; (c) such Person has adequate capital to carry on its business; and (d) such Person does not intend or believe it shall incur debts beyond its ability to pay as such debts mature. 5.6 Brokers. All negotiations relating to this Agreement and the Transactions have been carried on without the intervention of any Person acting on behalf of the Purchaser in such manner as to give rise to any valid claim against the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any Seller for any brokerage or finder’s commission, fee, or similar compensation. 5.7 Litigation. There are no Legal Proceedings pending that relate to this Agreement or the Transactions or, to the knowledge of the Purchaser, threatened, against or affecting the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates that challenges the validity or enforceability of this Agreement or seeks to enjoin or prohibit consummation of, or seek other material equitable relief with respect to, the Transaction or that would reasonably be expected to impair or delay the Purchaser’s ability to consummate the Transactions. 5.8 Inspection; No Other Representations. The Purchaser is an informed and sophisticated Person, and has engaged expert advisors experienced in the evaluation and acquisition of companies such as the Company and its Subsidiaries as contemplated hereunder. The Purchaser acknowledges that neither the Company, nor any of its Subsidiaries nor any Seller nor any other Person (including any representative, employee, officer, director or stockholder of

34 the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) makes, or has made, any representation or warranty with respect to (i) any projections, estimates or budgets delivered to or made available to the Purchaser of future revenues, future results of operations (or any component thereof), future cash flows or future financial condition (or any component thereof) of the Company and its Subsidiaries or the future business and operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries (including any future sales of any of the Company’s Subsidiaries’ products) or (ii) any other information or documents made available to the Purchaser or its counsel, accountants or advisors with respect to the Company, its Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, assets, liabilities or operations, except with respect to the Company as expressly set forth in ARTICLE III, or except with respect to any Seller as expressly set forth in ARTICLE IV. The Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement (as qualified by the Schedules) supersede, replace and nullify in every respect the data set forth in any other document, material or statement, whether written or oral, made available to the Purchaser. ARTICLE VI ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS 6.1 Further Assurances. Subject to the terms hereof, during the period from the date of this Agreement until the Closing or the earlier termination of this Agreement (the “Pre- Closing Period”), the Company and the Purchaser shall each use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to (a) take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and do, or cause to be done, and to assist and cooperate with the other Parties in doing, all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective the Transactions as promptly as practicable; (b) obtain from any Governmental Entity or any other third party any Consents or Orders required to be obtained or made by the Company or the Purchaser in connection with the authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and the consummation of the Transactions, including those set forth on Schedule 3.1(c); (c) as promptly as practicable, make all necessary filings, and thereafter make and cooperate with the other Party with respect to any other required submissions, with respect to this Agreement and the Transactions required under (i) any applicable U.S. federal or state or foreign securities Laws, (ii) the HSR Act and any related governmental request thereunder (it being agreed that the Company and the Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts, within three (3) Business Days after the execution of this Agreement, to make the necessary filing with the appropriate Governmental Entity in accordance with the HSR Act and to seek early termination with respect thereto) and any similar non-US competition notifications that the Company and the Purchaser mutually agree are reasonably necessary, (iii) any other applicable Law; and (d) execute or deliver any additional instruments reasonably necessary to consummate the Transactions in accordance with the terms hereof. The Company and the Purchaser shall cooperate with each other in connection with the making of all such filings. For the avoidance of doubt, (A) the failure to obtain any Consent or Order set forth on Schedule 3.1(c) shall not serve as the basis for the Purchaser to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 2.3 or to seek indemnification under ARTICLE III provided, however, that the Company used commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such Consent or Order pursuant to this Section 6.1, (B) the failure to obtain any Consent or Order set forth on Schedule 3.1(c) shall not serve as the basis for the Company or the Securityholder Representative to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 2.3 or to seek indemnification under ARTICLE III provided, however, that the Purchaser used commercially reasonable efforts

35 to obtain such Consent or Order pursuant to this Section 6.1 and (C) notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall require, or be construed to require, the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates to agree to (1) sell, hold, divest, discontinue or limit, before or after the Closing Date, any assets, businesses or interests of the Purchaser, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates; (2) any conditions relating to, or changes or restrictions in, the operations of any such assets, businesses or interests that, in either case, would reasonably be expected to adversely impact the economic or business benefits to the Purchaser of the Transactions; or (3) any material modification or waiver of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 6.2 Confidentiality. The Purchaser acknowledges that the information provided to it in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions is subject to the terms of the letter agreement by and among the Company and the Purchaser dated February 6, 2014 (the “Non- Disclosure and Confidentiality Agreement”), the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference. Effective upon, and only upon, the Closing, the Non-Disclosure and Confidentiality Agreement shall terminate. In the event that this Agreement terminates pursuant to Section 2.3, however, the Non-Disclosure and Confidentiality Agreement shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with its terms. 6.3 Publicity. The Parties hereto shall, and shall cause each of their respective Affiliates and representatives to, maintain the confidentiality of this Agreement and shall not, and shall cause each of their respective Affiliates not to, issue or cause the publication of any press release or other public announcement with respect to this Agreement or the Transactions without the prior written consent of the Securityholder Representative and the Purchaser, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that (i) upon the execution of this Agreement and upon the Closing, the Securityholder Representative and the Purchaser shall release a mutually agreed upon joint press release, (ii) a Party may, without the prior consent of the Purchaser and the Securityholder Representative, issue or cause publication of any such press release or public announcement, or make any filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission or other Governmental Entity, to the extent that such party reasonably determines, after consultation with outside legal counsel, such action to be required by Law or by the rules of any applicable stock exchange or self-regulatory organization, in which event such Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to consult with the Purchaser and the Securityholder Representative and allow reasonable time to comment on such press release or public announcement in advance of its issuance and (iii) nothing in this Section 6.3 shall prohibit any institutional Seller from disclosing any information relating to the Transactions to any investor or limited partner of such Seller to the extent such disclosure is made in the ordinary course of such Seller’s business. 6.4 Tax Matters. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including Section 6.4(b), each Seller (including each Joining Common Holder) (in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Portions, severally and not jointly) shall indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser Indemnified Parties from and against any and all Losses incurred with respect to or attributable to (i) all Taxes (or the non-payment thereof) imposed on the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for all taxable periods ending on or before the Closing Date and the portion through the end of the Closing Date for any taxable period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date (a

36 “Pre-Closing Tax Period”), including, for avoidance of doubt, the Company portion of any employment Taxes associated with any payments in connection with the Transactions, (ii) all Taxes of any member of an affiliated, consolidated, combined or unitary group of which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (or any predecessor of the foregoing) is or was a member prior to the Closing Date, including pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-6 or any analogous or similar state, local or foreign law, (iii) Taxes of any Person imposed on the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as a transferee or successor, by contract or pursuant to any law, rule or regulation, which Taxes relate solely to an event or transaction occurring on or before the Closing; (iv) any breach of any of the representations made by the Company in Section 3.14; and (v) Included Payroll Taxes; except, in each such case, to the extent such Taxes constitute or are related to an Excluded Item. Each Purchaser Indemnified Party’s remedies for Losses with respect to Taxes shall be limited to Taxes arising in any taxable period (or portion thereof) of the Company and/or its Subsidiaries ending on or before the Closing Date, except with respect to Losses arising from breaches of representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.14(a)(vii), Section 3.14(a)(viii), or Section 3.14(a)(xiii). (b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Sellers (in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Portions, severally and not jointly), on the other hand, shall each pay, when due, one half of all transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other similar Taxes, and all conveyance fees, recording charges and other fees and charges (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with the consummation of the Transactions and shall, at its own expense, file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to such Taxes, fees and charges. (c) The Securityholder Representative shall cause to be prepared all income, franchise or other similar Tax Returns of the Company and its Subsidiaries for all Tax periods ending on or before the Closing Date and any other Tax Returns of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for all Tax periods ending on or before the Closing Date if the Sellers may be obligated to indemnify the Purchaser for Taxes covered by such Tax Returns under this Agreement (“Pre-Closing Tax Returns”). Such Tax Returns shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past practice, except as otherwise required by applicable Law; provided, however, that (i) all items accruing on the Closing Date shall be allocated to the Company’s taxable period ending on the Closing Date pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502- 76(b)(1)(ii)(A)(1) (and not pursuant to the “next day” rule under Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-76(b)(1)(ii)(B) or pursuant to the ratable allocation method under Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-76(b)(2)(ii) or 1.1502-76(b)(2)(iii)), (ii) no election to waive a carryback of net operating losses under Section 172(b)(3) of the Code shall be made and (iii) all Transaction Deductions shall, to the maximum extent permitted by Law, be deducted on the Company’s income Tax Returns for the taxable period ending on the Closing Date. The Securityholder Representative shall provide the Purchaser drafts of the Pre-Closing Tax Returns, together with work papers containing detail reasonably sufficient to substantiate the deductibility of the Transaction Deductions, at least forty-five (45) days prior to the filing of such Tax Returns. The Purchaser shall provide written notice to the Securityholder Representative of its disagreement with any items in any such Pre-Closing Tax Return within fifteen (15) days of its receipt of such Pre-Closing Income Tax Return, and if the Purchaser fails to provide such notice, the Purchaser shall timely file or cause to be timely filed all such Tax Returns of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries as prepared by the Securityholder Representative. In the event of a dispute with

37 respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Returns, such dispute will be referred to and resolved by the Neutral Arbitrator, in which case the Purchaser will timely file or cause to be timely filed all such Tax Returns reflecting such final resolution. The Purchaser shall prepare or cause to be prepared any Tax Returns of the Company and any of its Subsidiaries for all Tax periods that begin on or before and end after the Closing Date (all such Tax Returns, the “Straddle Returns”). Such Straddle Returns shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past practice, except as otherwise required by applicable Law. In respect of Straddle Returns or in respect of Tax Returns for Pre- Closing Tax Periods that the Purchaser is preparing (the “Purchaser Prepared Pre-Closing Returns”), the Purchaser shall provide drafts of such Straddle Returns and/or such Purchaser Prepared Pre-Closing Returns, as applicable, to the Securityholder Representative at least forty- five (45) days prior to the due date for filing such Straddle Returns and/or such Purchaser Prepared Pre-Closing Returns, as applicable, and the Securityholder Representative shall have thirty (30) days to review and approve such draft Straddle Returns and/or such draft Purchaser Prepared Pre-Closing Returns, as the case may be. The Securityholder Representative and the Purchaser shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any disputes over such Straddle Returns and/or such Purchaser Prepared Pre-Closing Returns, as applicable, for the following fifteen (15) days. Any disputes over Straddle Returns and/or Purchaser Prepared Pre-Closing Returns, as the case may be, that cannot be resolved through negotiations between the Purchaser and the Securityholder Representative shall be taken to the Neutral Arbitrator. The determination of the Neutral Arbitrator shall be binding on the Parties, and the Purchaser will file or cause to be filed any such Straddle Return reflecting such final resolution. The costs of the Neutral Arbitrator shall be borne fifty percent (50%) by the Purchaser and fifty percent (50%) by the Sellers (in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Portions, severally and not jointly). (d) The Securityholder Representative shall have the right to control and the Purchaser shall have the right to participate (at its own expense) in any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes and Tax Returns of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for any Tax period ending on or prior to the Closing Date (a “Pre-Closing Tax Contest”); provided, however, that the Securityholder Representative shall keep the Purchaser reasonably informed of the details and status of such Pre-Closing Tax Contest (including providing the Purchaser with copies of all written correspondence regarding such matter), and the Securityholder Representative shall not settle or compromise any such Pre-Closing Tax Contest without the Purchaser’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) if such settlement or compromise could have the effect of increasing a Tax liability of the Company or its Subsidiaries that is not indemnified by the Securityholders under this Agreement. The Purchaser shall provide the Securityholder Representative with prompt notice of any written inquiries by a Taxing Authority relating to a Pre-Closing Tax Contest within five (5) days of the receipt of such notice. Purchaser and the Securityholder Representative (if it so elects) shall jointly control any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes and Tax Returns of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for any Straddle Period. Purchaser shall control any Pre- Closing Tax Contest that the Securityholder Representative has elected not to control and any contest with respect to a Straddle Period that the Securityholder Representative has elected not to jointly control, provided, in each such case, that (x) the Securityholder Representative shall have the right to participate (at its own expense) in any such matter and (y) the Purchaser shall keep the Securityholder Representative reasonably informed of the details and status of such matter (including providing the Securityholder Representative with copies of all written correspondence regarding such matter). The Purchaser shall not settle any such proceedings without the prior

38 written consent of the Securityholder Representative (which consent shall not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) if such settlement, adjustment, or compromise would have the effect of increasing a Tax liability that the Securityholders are required to indemnify under this Agreement. (e) The Securityholder Representative and the Purchaser shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other Party, in connection with the filing of any Tax Returns for the Company and its Subsidiaries, the filing and prosecution of any Tax claims, and any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. Such cooperation shall include making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide assistance in the preparation of the Pre-Closing Tax Returns and additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. (f) Without the prior written consent of the Securityholder Representative, neither the Purchaser, the Company nor any of their respective Affiliates shall make or change any Tax election, adopt or change any accounting method, file or amend any Tax Return, surrender any right to claim a refund of Taxes or take any other action if such election, adoption, change, amendment, surrender or action could have the effect of increasing the Tax liability that the Sellers are required to indemnify under this Agreement or reduce the amount of any refund to which the Securityholders would otherwise be entitled pursuant to Section 6.4(j) of this Agreement. (g) For the portion of the Closing Date after the time of Closing, other than actions expressly contemplated hereby, the Purchaser shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to carry on its business only in the ordinary course in the same manner as heretofore conducted. (h) The Purchaser, the Company and their respective Affiliates shall cause the Tax year of the Company and its Subsidiaries to end at the end of the day on the Closing Date for federal and applicable state, local and foreign income Tax purposes, to the extent permitted under applicable Law. If applicable Law does not permit the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to close its taxable year on the Closing Date or in any case in which a Tax is assessed with respect to a taxable period that includes the Closing Date (but does not end on that day) (a “Straddle Period”), the Taxes, if any, attributable to the portion of the Straddle Period that is a Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be allocated (including for purposes of Sections 6.4(a) and Section 6.4(j)) as follows: (i) the amount of any Taxes based on or measured by income or receipts, sales or use taxes, employment taxes, or withholding taxes of the Company and its Subsidiaries for the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be determined based on an interim closing of the books as of the close of business on the Closing Date, and (ii) the amount of any other Taxes of the Company and its Subsidiaries for a Straddle Period that relates to the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall 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 taxable period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in such Straddle Period. The Purchaser and its Subsidiaries, including the Company, shall file consolidated U.S. federal income Tax Returns for all taxable periods after the Closing Date. (i) Neither the Purchaser nor any of its Affiliates shall make an election under Section 338 of the Code (or any comparable provision of foreign, state or local Law) in respect of the Transactions.

39 (j) Any refunds for Taxes (including any interest in respect thereof) actually received by the Purchaser, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates, related to, or resulting or arising, directly or indirectly from any Taxes of the Company or its Subsidiaries for a taxable period (or portion thereof) ending on or before the Closing Date shall be property of the Securityholders (subject to the prior application and satisfaction in full of the provisions of Section 1.5(e)) in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Escrow Portions, except to the extent any such refund was taken into account in the determination of the Closing Date Net Working Capital Amount. The Purchaser shall pay to the Securityholders (subject to the prior application and satisfaction in full of the provisions of Section 1.5(e)) in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Escrow Portions, any such refund actually received (net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including any Taxes imposed on such refund)) within fifteen (15) days after receipt thereof. The Purchaser, the Company and their respective Affiliates shall, if the Securityholder Representative so requests, cause the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, at the expense of the Securityholders (in proportion to its respective Pro Rata Escrow Portion, severally and not jointly), to file for and use their reasonable best efforts to obtain any Tax refund to which Securityholders would be entitled under this Section 6.4(j). The Purchaser shall, upon request, permit the Securityholder Representative to participate in the prosecution of any such refund claim at the expense of the Securityholders (in proportion to its respective Pro Rata Escrow Portion, severally and not jointly). The Purchaser shall elect to receive all refunds in cash if such election could cause such refunds to be subject to this Section 6.4(j). (k) The indemnification provided for in this Section 6.4 shall be the sole remedy for any claim in respect of Taxes, including any claim arising out of or relating to a breach of Section 3.14. In the event of a conflict between the provisions of this Section 6.4, on the one hand, and the provisions of ARTICLE VIII, on the other, the provisions of this Section 6.4 shall control. (l) Either (i) the Company shall provide the Purchaser on the Closing Date with a certificate in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.1445-2(c)(3) certifying that the Company is not a United States real property holding corporation within the meaning of Section 897(c)(2) of the Code or (ii) each Seller will provide the Purchaser on the Closing Date with a certificate in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.1445-2(b)(2) certifying that such Seller is not a foreign person within the meaning of Section 1445 of the Code. (m) Purchaser or the Company, as applicable, shall pay to the Securityholders (subject to the prior application and satisfaction in full of the provisions of Section 1.5(e)) in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Escrow Portions, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, an amount, in cash, equal to the Post-Closing Transaction Tax Benefits on October 15 of the taxable year following the taxable year in which the expenses relating to the relevant Post-Closing Transaction Deductions are paid. For purposes of this Agreement, “Post- Closing Transaction Tax Benefits” shall mean the product of (i) an amount equal to the Post- Closing Transaction Deductions for the relevant taxable year and (ii) an assumed income tax rate of thirty-five percent (35%). 6.5 Conduct of the Business Prior to the Closing. Except as set forth on Schedule 6.5, during the Pre-Closing Period, the Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, conduct their respective businesses in the Ordinary Course of Business, except as required by

40 Law or as otherwise expressly contemplated by this Agreement, and use commercially reasonable efforts to preserve substantially intact its business and all of its material assets and properties, attempt to keep available the services of its current officers and significant employees, and maintain in all material respects its current relations and goodwill with vendors, customer base and other Persons having material business relationships with the Company and/or its Subsidiaries. During the Pre-Closing Period, except as consented to in writing by the Purchaser (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), the Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, take any action that would cause any of the changes, events or conditions described in Section 3.5 to occur. 6.6 Pre-Closing Period Access to Information. (a) Subject to Section 6.6(b), except as required pursuant to any confidentiality agreement or similar Contract between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and a third Person or pursuant to applicable Law (in which case the Company shall provide the Purchaser with a description of such information or materials being withheld and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain permission to disclose such information to the Purchaser or to its legal counsel on a confidential basis), during the Pre-Closing Period, the Company shall: (i) provide the Purchaser and its representatives (including any Person who is considering providing financing to the Purchaser to finance all or any portion of the Enterprise Value that is subject to a written confidentiality agreement with customary restrictions on use and disclosure of information with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries, and their respective representatives) with reasonable access, upon reasonable prior notice and during normal business hours at mutually convenient times, to the officers, employees, agents and accountants of the Company and its Subsidiaries and their assets and properties and books and records; and (ii) furnish the Purchaser and such other Persons with all such information and data (including copies of Contracts, Benefit Plans and other books and records) concerning the business and operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries as the Purchaser or any of such other Persons reasonably may request in connection with such investigation. (b) Any such access and/or investigation by the Purchaser and its representatives shall not unreasonably interfere with any of the businesses or operations of the Company or its Subsidiaries. Neither the Purchaser nor any of its representatives shall have any contact whatsoever, prior to the Closing Date, with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the Transactions with any agent, broker, partner, lessor, vendor, customer, supplier, employee or consultant of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, except in consultation with the Company and then only with the express prior approval of the Company. All requests by the Purchaser for access or information shall be submitted or directed exclusively to an individual or individuals to be designated by the Company. 6.7 Post-Closing Preservation of Records. In order to facilitate the resolution of any claims made against or incurred by the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the Closing, or for any other reasonable purpose, for a period of seven (7) years after the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall:

41 (a) retain the books and records (including personnel files) of the Company and its Subsidiaries relating to periods prior to the Closing in a manner reasonably consistent with the prior practices of the Company and such Subsidiaries; and (b) upon reasonable prior notice (including notice of the purpose thereof), afford the Securityholder Representative reasonable access (including the right to make photocopies), during normal business hours at mutually convenient times, to such books and records. Any such access shall not unreasonably interfere with any of the businesses or operations of the Company or its Subsidiaries. 6.8 No Solicitation. From the date hereof until the earlier of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 2.3 or the Closing, each Common Holder and the Company shall, and shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries and each of their respective directors, officers, partners, members, managers, trustees, employees, agents and advisors (collectively, the “Company Representatives”) to cease any and all existing activities, discussions or negotiations with any Person other than the Purchaser with respect to, and to deal exclusively with the Purchaser and its designated Affiliates and representatives regarding, any and all acquisitions of, and investments in, the Company and its Subsidiaries, whether by way of merger, consolidation or other business combination with any other Person, purchase or exchange of equity interests, purchase of assets or otherwise (an “Alternative Transaction”) and, without the prior consent of the Purchaser, the Common Holders and the Company shall not, and shall cause the Company’s Subsidiaries and the Company Representatives not to: (a) solicit, initiate or otherwise engage in any negotiations, discussions or other communications with any other Person relating to any Alternative Transaction; (b) provide information or documentation to any other Person with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses or assets in respect of any Alternative Transaction; or (c) enter into any Contract (or approve the entry into any Contract) with any other Person in respect of any Alternative Transaction. 6.9 Director and Officer Indemnification and Insurance. (a) The Purchaser agrees that all rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation by the Company and its Subsidiaries now existing in favor of each Person who is now, or has been at any time prior to the date hereof or who becomes prior to the Closing Date, an officer, director, or manager, as applicable, of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, as provided in the Governing Documents of the Company or such Subsidiary, in each case as in effect on the date of this Agreement, or pursuant to any other Contract in effect on the date hereof and disclosed to the Purchaser in accordance with Section 3.7(a)(xii) shall survive the Closing Date and shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their respective terms for at least six (6) years after the Closing Date. (b) Prior to or at the Closing, the Company shall obtain and fully pay for a “tail” insurance policy with respect to the directors’ and officers’ insurance policy in effect immediately prior to the Closing with a claims period of six (6) years from the Closing Date with

42 at least the same coverage and amounts, and containing terms and conditions that are not less advantageous to the directors, officers and managers of the Company, in each case with respect to claims arising out of or relating to events that occurred on or prior to the Closing Date (including in connection with the Transactions). The Company shall pay all premium payments for such directors’ and officers’ liability “tail” insurance coverage prior to or at the Closing, and, to the extent such premium payments remain unpaid after the Closing, they shall be treated as Selling Expenses. During the term of such directors’ and officers’ liability “tail” insurance policy, the Purchaser shall not (and shall cause the Company not to) take any action following the Closing to cause such policy to be cancelled or any provision therein to be amended, modified or waived; provided, however, that neither the Purchaser, the Company nor any Affiliate thereof shall be obligated to pay any premiums or amounts in respect thereof unless such amounts were included as Selling Expenses. (c) The obligations of the Purchaser and the Company under this Section 6.9 shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely affect any director, officer or manager to whom this Section 6.9 applies without the consent of such affected director, officer or manager (it being expressly agreed that the directors, officers and managers to whom this Section 6.9 applies shall be third-party beneficiaries of this Section 6.9, each of whom may enforce the provisions of this Section 6.9). (d) In the event the Purchaser, the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity in such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in either such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of the Purchaser, the Company or such Subsidiary, as the case may be, shall assume all of the obligations set forth in this Section 6.9. 6.10 Joinder of Additional Common Holders. In the event any holder of Company Stock Options exercises any such Company Stock Option for shares of Common Stock between the date hereof and the Closing, the Company shall promptly notify the Purchaser of such exercise and shall require each such Person (each, a “Joining Common Holder”) to become party to this Agreement as a “Common Holder” and a “Seller” in order to receive payment hereunder in accordance with Section 1.4 by executing a Joinder Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (each, a “Joinder Agreement”) setting forth all of the shares of Common Stock held by such Joining Common Holder. The Parties agree that any such Joining Common Holder shall become and constitute a “Common Holder” and a “Seller” for all purposes of this Agreement, including for purposes of the sale of Common Shares held thereby at the Closing in accordance with this Agreement. Prior to the Closing, the Company shall update Schedule 1.1 hereto to reflect the Common Shares owned by all Joining Common Holders. 6.11 Employment and Benefit Matters. For the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the one year anniversary of the Closing Date, the Purchaser agrees to maintain the compensation and benefit levels, including base salary, annual cash incentive opportunities, retirement benefits, and health and welfare benefits for the Company Employees at levels that are, in the aggregate, comparable to those in effect for the Company Employees immediately prior to the Closing; provided that the foregoing will not be interpreted to in any

00 xxx xxxxxxxx the Purchaser’s discretion to terminate the employment of any Company Employees or otherwise modify the terms of employment with any particular Company Employees after the Closing. The Purchaser shall treat, and cause the applicable benefit plans to treat, the service of the Company Employees with the Company (or any Subsidiary of the Company) attributable to any period before the Closing Date as service rendered to the Purchaser or any Subsidiary of the Purchaser for purposes of eligibility and vesting under the Purchaser’s vacation program, health or welfare plan(s) maintained by the Purchaser, and the Purchaser’s defined contribution plans, except where credit would result in duplication of benefits. Without limiting the foregoing, to the extent that any Company Employee participates in any health or other group welfare benefit plan of the Purchaser following the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall cause any eligibility waiting periods under any health or similar welfare plan of the Purchaser to be waived with respect to the Company Employees and their eligible dependents, to the extent satisfied under the corresponding plan in which the Company Employee participated immediately prior to the Closing Date. 6.12 280G Matters. The Company shall obtain and deliver to the Purchaser, prior to soliciting the vote of the Company’s stockholders with respect to the 280G Proposal, a parachute payment waiver (each, a “Parachute Payment Waiver”) from each Person who is or reasonably could be, with respect to the Company, a “disqualified individual” (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code), as determined immediately prior to the initiation of the Stockholder solicitation required by this Section 6.12, and who reasonably might otherwise receive, have received or have the right or entitlement to receive an excess parachute payment under Section 280G of the Code. Prior to the Closing, the Company shall solicit the vote of the Stockholders in accordance with the terms of Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code (the “280G Proposal”) so as to render, if an affirmative vote is obtained, the parachute payment provisions of Section 280G of the Code inapplicable to any and all payments and benefits provided pursuant to contracts or arrangements that, in the absence of the executed Parachute Payment Waivers by the affected Persons under the immediately preceding paragraph, might otherwise reasonably result, separately or in the aggregate, in the payment of any amount or the provision of any benefit that would not be deductible by reason of Section 280G of the Code, with such stockholder approval to be solicited in a manner that is intended to satisfy all applicable requirements of such Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code, including Q-7 of Section 1.280G-1 of the Treasury Regulations. The documentation constituting the 280G Proposal shall be subject to the Purchaser’s prior review and approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. 6.13 Release of Certain Seller Obligations. The Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each of Xxxxxxx Xxxxx Revocable Trust, Xxxxxxx Xxxxx 2004 Gift Trust, Xxxxxxxxxx Trust No. 2 Non-GST Exempt and Xxxxxxxxxx Trust No. 2 GST Exempt (collectively, the “LoC Released Parties”) to be unconditionally released in full from any liability or obligation in respect of that certain letter of credit issued February 14, 2013 in favor of Xxxxxx LLC by Bank of America, N.A. (the “Letter of Credit”). The Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless, pursuant to the terms of ARTICLE VIII, LoC Released Parties from and against any Losses suffered or incurred by it in connection with the Letter of Credit from and after the Closing. The Purchaser shall not, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates (including the Companies and its Subsidiaries) to, renew, extend, amend or supplement the Letter of Credit or without providing evidence to the LoC Released Parties that the LoC

44 Released Parties have been unconditionally released in full from any liability or obligation in respect of the Letter of Credit.

46 ARTICLE VIII INDEMNIFICATION; CERTAIN REMEDIES 8.1 Survival. The representations and warranties contained in this Agreement (other than the Fundamental Representations), shall survive until the Escrow Termination Date, provided, however, that any claim that is properly asserted in writing with respect to any such representation or warranty pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII prior to the Escrow Termination Date shall survive until such claim is finally resolved and satisfied. The Fundamental Representations shall survive until the third (3rd) anniversary of the Closing Date, provided, however, that any claim that is properly asserted with respect to a breach of any Fundamental Representation pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII prior to the third (3rd) anniversary of the Closing Date shall survive until such claim is finally resolved and satisfied. All covenants and other agreements contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing in accordance with their respective terms. 8.2 Indemnification by the Sellers. (a) After the Closing and subject to Section 8.4 and the other provisions of this ARTICLE VIII, each Seller (including each Joining Common Holder), severally and not jointly, shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless, and agrees to reimburse the Purchaser and its directors, officers, employees and stockholders (collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnified Parties”), from and against any and all losses, liabilities, obligations, damages and expenses (individually, a “Loss” and, collectively, “Losses”) of a Purchaser Indemnified Party based upon or resulting from: (i) any breach of any of the representations or warranties made by the Company in ARTICLE III of this Agreement; (ii) any breach of or failure to perform, on or prior to the Closing, any covenant or agreement made by the Company in this Agreement; (iii) any breach of any of the representations or warranties made by such Seller in ARTICLE IV of this Agreement; (iv) any breach of or failure to perform any covenant or agreement made by such Seller in this Agreement, other than Section 6.4; (v) any breach of or failure to perform any covenant or agreement made by such Seller in Section 6.4; and (vi) the matters identified on Schedule 1.6(a) hereto (such matters, the “Special Indemnity Matters”). (b) The Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall take, and the Purchaser shall cause the Company and their respective Affiliates to take, all reasonable steps to mitigate any Loss upon becoming aware of any event that would reasonably be expected to, or does, give rise thereto.

47 8.3 Indemnification by the Purchaser. (a) After the Closing and subject to Section 8.4 and the other provisions of this ARTICLE VIII, the Purchaser hereby agrees to reimburse, defend, indemnify and hold each Seller and their respective directors, officers, employees, stockholders, members and partners, as applicable (collectively, the “Securityholder Indemnified Parties”), harmless from and against any and all Losses of a Securityholder Indemnified Party based upon or resulting from: (i) any breach of any of the representations or warranties made by the Purchaser in this Agreement; and (ii) any breach of or failure to perform any covenant or agreement made by the Purchaser in this Agreement. 8.4 Limitations on Indemnification. (a) Notwithstanding the provisions of this ARTICLE VIII, except to the extent such Losses arise out of a breach of a Company Fundamental Representation, no Seller shall have any indemnification obligations for Losses under Section 8.2(a)(i): (i) unless and until the aggregate amount of all such Losses actually incurred by the Purchaser Indemnified Parties under Section 8.2(a)(i) exceeds an amount equal to Two Million Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($2,250,000) (the “Basket Amount”), from and after which time the Sellers shall be liable only for the amount that exceeds the Basket Amount; (ii) unless and until the aggregate amount of such Losses actually incurred by the Purchaser Indemnified Parties under Section 8.2(a)(i) for any claim relating to any single matter or series or group of related matters exceeds Seventy-Five Thousand Dollars ($75,000.00) (a “Qualifying Claim”) and only Qualifying Claims, and only the amount of any Qualifying Claim in excess of Seventy-Five Thousand Dollars ($75,000.00), shall be applied toward the satisfaction of the Basket Amount; and(iii) except to the extent such Losses arise out of a breach of a Company Fundamental Representation, in no event shall the aggregate indemnification to be paid by the Sellers under Section 8.2(a)(i) exceed the amount then available in the Indemnity Escrow Account. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein: (A) except to the extend such Losses arise out of a breach of a Company Fundamental Representation, the Purchaser Indemnified Parties’ sole recourse with respect to indemnifiable claims for Losses under Section 8.2(a)(i) shall be to the amount then available in the Indemnity Escrow Account; (B) no Purchaser Indemnified Party may make a claim against the Indemnity Escrow Account for any Losses other than Losses that are subject to indemnification pursuant to Section 6.4, Section 8.2(a)(i), Section 8.2(a)(ii) and/or Section 8.2(a)(v); and (C) the Purchaser Indemnified Parties’ sole recourse with respect to indemnifiable claims under Section 8.2(a)(vi) and/or with respect to any Special Indemnity Matter shall be a right to recover Special Losses from the amount then available in the Special Escrow Account and no Purchaser Indemnified Party may make a claim against the Special Escrow Account for any Losses other than Special Losses. Furthermore, the Purchaser Indemnified Parties acknowledge and agree that in no event shall the aggregate liability of any Seller (including any Joining Common Holder) under this Agreement exceed the aggregate Consideration Received by such Seller.

48 (b) No Seller shall be required to indemnify any Purchaser Indemnified Party and the Purchaser shall not be required to indemnify any Securityholder Indemnified Party to the extent of any Losses that a court of competent jurisdiction shall have determined by final and non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Party seeking indemnification. (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, and subject in each case to the limitations in this ARTICLE VIII, the term “severally and not jointly” as used in Section 6.4(a) and Section 8.2 means that each Seller’s respective liability for Losses shall be limited as follows: (i) with respect to indemnification claims made by a Purchaser Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 8.2(a)(iii), Section 8.2(a)(iv) or Section 8.2(a)(v) against a particular Seller, the breaching Seller shall be solely liable for all such Losses (if any); and (ii) with respect to indemnification claims made by a Purchaser Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 6.4, Section 8.2(a)(i), Section 8.2(a)(ii) and/or Section 8.2(a)(v), indemnification shall first be provided by the funds then remaining in the Indemnity Escrow Account; provided, however, in the case where a Purchaser Indemnified Party has incurred Losses pursuant to Section 6.4, Section 8.2(a)(i) (but only with respect to a breach of a Company Fundamental Representation), Section 8.2(a)(ii) and/or Section 8.2(a)(v) that exceed the amount then available in the Indemnity Escrow Account, then each Seller shall only be responsible for its respective Pro Rata Portion of the amount by which such Losses exceed the amount then available in the Indemnity Escrow Account. (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained herein shall give rise to any right on the part of any Purchaser Indemnified Party or any Securityholder Indemnified Party, after the consummation of the Transactions, to rescind this Agreement or the consummation of the Transactions. 8.5 Indemnification Procedures. (a) In the event that indemnification may be sought under this ARTICLE VIII (an “Indemnification Claim”) in connection with (i) any action, suit or proceeding that may be instituted or (ii) any claim that may be asserted, in any such case, by any Person not a party to this Agreement, the Party seeking indemnification hereunder (the “Indemnified Party”) shall promptly cause written notice of the assertion of such Indemnification Claim to be delivered to the Party from whom indemnification hereunder is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period set forth in Section 8.1; provided, however, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in giving any such notice shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of any indemnification obligation hereunder unless (and then solely to the extent that) the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by such delay. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to be represented by counsel of its choice and to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Indemnification Claim and, if the Indemnified Party elects to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Indemnification Claim, it shall within thirty (30) days (or sooner, if the nature of the Indemnification Claim so requires) (the “Dispute

49 Period”) notify the Indemnified Party of its intent to do so. If the Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period elects not to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Indemnification Claim, the Indemnifying Party may defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with such Indemnification Claim using counsel of its choice, which must be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnified Party assumes the defense of any Indemnification Claim, the Indemnifying Party may participate, at its own expense, in the defense of such Indemnification Claim. The Parties hereto agree to cooperate fully with each other in connection with the defense, negotiation or settlement of any such Indemnification Claim. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 8.5 to the contrary, neither the Indemnifying Party nor the Indemnified Party shall, without the written consent of the other Party, not to be unreasonably withheld, settle or compromise any Indemnification Claim or permit a default or consent to entry of any judgment. The Parties hereto agree that the Purchaser shall, reasonably and in good faith, defend the Special Indemnity Matters upon, and subject to, the terms of this Section 8.5 and that the Purchaser shall not settle any Special Indemnity Matter unless pursuant to an Approved Settlement Agreement and that the Securityholder Representative shall have the right to participate, at the Seller’s expense, in the defense of such Special Indemnity Matters. (b) In the event that an Indemnified Party has any claim against an Indemnifying Party hereunder, but which such claim does not involve an action, suit, proceeding or claim by a third party not party to this Agreement, which such Indemnified Party determines to assert, then such Indemnified Party shall assert such Indemnification Claim by sending written notice to the Indemnifying Party describing in reasonable detail the nature of such claim and the Indemnified Party’s estimate of the amount of Losses attributable to such claim. (c) After any final and non-appealable decision, judgment or award shall have been rendered by a Governmental Entity of competent jurisdiction, or a settlement or arbitration shall have been consummated, or the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall have arrived at a mutually binding agreement (any such event a “Final Determination”) with respect to any Indemnification Claim hereunder, then the Indemnifying Party shall pay any amount so determined to such Indemnified Party. 8.6 Calculation of Losses. (a) The amount of any Losses for which indemnification is provided under this ARTICLE VIII or Section 6.4 shall (i) be net of any amounts actually recovered or recoverable by the Indemnified Party under insurance policies or otherwise with respect to such Losses and each Indemnified Party will use commercially reasonable efforts to collect and/or recover any such amounts, and (ii) be reduced by the product of (x) the portion of any such Loss that constitutes a deductible payment for U.S. federal income Tax purposes and (y) an income tax rate of thirty-five percent (35%). Any reduction to an indemnity payment under this Section 8.6(a) shall not apply with respect to Special Losses (payments in respect of which shall be subject to the Special Loss Tax Benefit). (b) For the purposes hereof, if any Purchaser Indemnified Party, the Company or any of its or their Affiliates (each, a “Special Loss Party,” and collectively, the “Special Loss Parties”) receives any Special Loss Offset at any time after a distribution has been made from the Special Indemnity Escrow, and such Special Loss Offset had not already been

50 used to offset Special Losses, then such Special Loss Party shall, and the Purchaser and the Company shall cause such Special Loss Party to, pay the amount of such Special Loss Offset to the Securityholders (subject to the prior application and satisfaction in full of the provisions of Section 1.5(e)) in the same manner as amounts would then be paid to such Securityholders under the Escrow Agreement had such Special Loss Offset been an amount of Special Indemnity Escrow returned to such Securityholders pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement. (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, no Party shall, in any event, be liable to any other Person for any Losses pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII or Section 6.4 to the extent such Losses constitute, include or relate to any consequential, incidental, indirect, special or punitive damages, including loss of future revenue, income or profits, diminution of value or loss of business reputation or opportunity or a multiple of revenue, income, profits or any other amount. (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the Purchaser Indemnified Parties are not entitled to indemnification pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII or Section 6.4 to the extent that any matter, amount, item of other fact for which they are seeking indemnification hereunder is an Excluded Item. (e) For the purposes of determining the amount of Losses for which indemnification is provided under this ARTICLE VIII (and, for the avoidance of doubt, not for determining whether a breach of any representation or warranty set forth in ARTICLE III or ARTICLE IV has occurred), all qualifications and limitations as to materiality, Material Adverse Effect and words of similar import in ARTICLE III and ARTICLE IV shall be disregarded, except in each case (i) with respect to the representations and warranties in Section 3.4(b), the lead in to Section 3.5 and Section 3.13(b), and (ii) to the extent “material” is used to qualify the subject matter of a representation or warranty (e.g., “material” contract) rather than the nature of an occurrence (e.g., “material” violation or “in all material respects”). 8.7 Tax Treatment of Indemnity Payments. The Parties agree to treat any indemnity payment made pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII or Section 6.4 as an adjustment to the purchase price for federal, state, local and foreign income Tax purposes. 8.8 Exclusive Remedy; Release. The Parties agree that after the Closing, the exclusive remedies of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties and the Securityholder Indemnified Parties for any Losses based upon, arising out of or otherwise in respect of the matters set forth in this Agreement and the Transaction Documents are the indemnification obligations of the Parties set forth in this ARTICLE VIII or Section 6.4. The Purchaser hereby acknowledges and agrees that prior to the Closing, the Purchaser shall have no right or remedy to take any action in respect of, and the Company and the Sellers shall have no liability to the Purchaser in respect of, any breach by the Company or the Sellers, as applicable, of any representations or warranties contained herein or any failure to comply with any of the covenants, conditions or agreements contained herein, except (i) to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 2.3 hereof, in which event, the Company and the Sellers shall thereupon only have liability with respect thereto as provided for in Section 2.5 or (ii) to seek specific performance pursuant to Section 9.13 for injunctive relief. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, each Party, on behalf of itself and, as applicable, each Purchaser Indemnified Party and each Seller Indemnified Party,

51 hereby waives all other rights and remedies with respect to any matter in any way relating to this Agreement or arising in connection herewith, whether under Law or otherwise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the existence of this ARTICLE VIII or Section 6.4 and of the rights and restrictions set forth therein and elsewhere in this Agreement do not limit any legal remedy against any Party hereto to the extent such Party has committed actual fraud against the Party seeking such legal remedy. ARTICLE IX GENERAL PROVISIONS 9.1 Expenses. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein (including Section 6.1 and Section 6.4 hereof), all costs and expenses, including fees and disbursements of counsel, financial advisors and accountants, incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions shall be paid by the party incurring such costs and expenses, whether or not the Closing shall have occurred; provided, however, that the Purchaser shall pay any filing or other similar fees payable in connection with any filings or submissions under the HSR Act and any comparable foreign Laws. 9.2 Notices.
