(a) The aggregate consideration payable by Acquiror in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby shall be cash in an amount equal to the sum of (i) $5,000,000, less the amount, if any, by which Target Working Capital exceeds Closing Working Capital (the “Closing Working Capital Adjustment”), less the Funded Debt Payoff Amount, less the Estimated Holder Allocable Expenses (the “Closing Date Purchase Price”), plus (ii) the amount of all Earnout Consideration to the extent payable pursuant to Section 2.5, subject to any adjustment pursuant to Section 12.2(e) (collectively, the “Purchase Price”). As part of the Purchase Price, immediately prior to the Closing and the First Earnout Payment Date (to the extent the First Earnout Amount is earned), as applicable, Acquiror shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Escrow Agent out of each of the Closing Date Purchase Price and the First Earnout Amount, the Initial Escrow Amount and the Additional Escrow Amount, respectively, payable by wire transfer in immediately available funds for deposit into the account designated therefor in the Escrow Agreement.

(b) The Purchase Price shall be allocated among the Sellers and the members of the Management Pool as set forth below in this Section 2.4(b), to the extent available for distribution. Payment shall be made to each Seller via wire transfer or check, at such Seller’s election, as set forth on the signature page of each Seller. Payment may be made through the Company’s payroll processor.

(i) In connection with Closing, each holder of Preferred B Shares, Preferred A Shares and Common Shares shall be entitled to receive, in respect of each Preferred B Share, Preferred A Share and Common Share held respectively by such holders prior to the Closing, their respective portions of the Closing Date Purchase Price according to the Closing Waterfall Schedule.

(ii) In connection with the First Earnout Payment, each holder of Preferred B Shares, Preferred A Shares and Common Shares shall be entitled to receive, in respect of each Preferred B Share, Preferred A Share and Common Share held respectively by such holders prior to the Closing, their respective portions of the First Earnout Amount pursuant to Sections 2.5 and 2.6, subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 12.2(e) according to the Waterfall Schedule.

(iv) In connection with the Second Release Date, if any, each holder of Preferred B Shares, Preferred A Shares and Common Shares shall be entitled to receive, in respect of each Preferred B Share, Preferred A Share and Common Share held respectively by such holders prior to the Closing, the remaining unused amount of the Additional Escrow Amount pursuant to Section 12.7 (the “Remaining Additional Escrow Amount”) pursuant to the Waterfall Schedule.

(v) Each member of the Management Pool shall be entitled to the right to receive a portion of the applicable Earnout Consideration pursuant to Sections 2.5 and 2.6, subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 12.2(e) and the terms and conditions set forth on Annex B hereto.

(i) Within sixty (60) days following the Closing Date, Acquiror shall prepare and deliver to the Holder Representative Acquiror’s calculation of the Company’s Working Capital as of 11:59 p.m. on the date immediately preceding the Closing Date (the “Closing Working Capital”), and the Closing Working Capital Adjustment, together with supporting documentation for such calculation (the “Closing Statement”). The preparation of the Closing Statement shall be for the sole purpose of determining the Closing Working Capital Adjustment. The Holder Representative shall have thirty (30) days following his receipt of the Closing Statement (the “Review Period”) to review the same. On or before the expiration of the Review Period, the Holder Representative shall deliver to Acquiror a written statement accepting or objecting to the Closing Statement. In the event that the Holder Representative shall object to the Closing Statement, such statement shall include a detailed itemization of the Holder Representative’s objections and the reasons therefor (each, an “Item of Dispute”); provided, that the only basis on which the Holder Representative shall be permitted to submit an Item of Dispute is that such Item of Dispute was not prepared in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or contains mathematical or clerical errors. If the Holder Representative does not deliver such statement to Acquiror within the Review Period, the Holder Representative shall be deemed to have accepted the Closing Statement.

(ii) In the event that the Holder Representative shall object to the Closing Statement within the Review Period, Acquiror and the Holder Representative shall promptly meet and in good faith attempt to resolve such objections. Any such objections which cannot be resolved between Acquiror and the Holder Representative within thirty (30) days following Acquiror’s receipt of the Holder Representative’s statement of objections shall be resolved in accordance with this Section 2.4(c). If the Holder Representative and Acquiror are unable to resolve such objections as may be raised with respect to the Closing Statement within the thirty (30) day period described above, either party may submit the matter to Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx LLP, provided, that if Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx is Acquiror’s auditor, then another independent nationally recognized certified public accounting firm mutually acceptable to Acquiror and the Holder Representative (the “Independent Accounting Firm”). Acquiror and the Holder Representative shall each provide their respective Closing Statement and the Items of Dispute in writing to the Independent Accounting Firm and shall request that the Independent Accounting Firm render a written determination, which determination (i) shall be based solely on whether the Closing Statement or each such Item of Dispute was prepared in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or whether the Closing Statement or each such Item of Dispute contains a mathematical or clerical error or errors and (ii) shall not be resolved so the final amount determined by the Independent Accounting Firm is more favorable to the Holder Representative than the calculation(s) presented in any Item of Dispute delivered by the Holder Representative or more favorable to Acquiror than the calculation(s) presented in the Closing Statement delivered by Acquiror, and, as to each unresolved Item of Dispute, shall be resolved as soon as reasonably practicable, but in no event later than thirty (30) days after its retention, and the parties shall cooperate fully with the Independent Accounting Firm so as to enable it to make such determination as quickly and as accurately as practicable. The Independent Accounting Firm’s determination as to each Item of Dispute submitted to it shall be in writing and shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties, absent manifest error or willful misconduct, and the Closing Working Capital Adjustment shall be modified to the extent necessary to reflect such determination. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm shall be paid by the party whose calculation of the Closing Working Capital Adjustment is furthest from the determination rendered by the Independent Accounting Firm.

(iii) In the event of a Closing Working Capital Adjustment, Acquiror may set off such Closing Working Capital Adjustment against the Earnout Consideration or make a claim against the Escrow Fund, at its sole discretion. In the event of a claim against the Escrow Fund for the purpose of a Closing Working Capital Adjustment, upon the written request of Acquiror, the Holder Representative shall authorize any payment in respect of such claim. Any such payment shall be made within five (5) Business Days after the Closing Statement becomes final and binding upon the parties.

Consideration (the “Results”), related to the preceding fiscal year. Acquiror shall prepare the calculation of Net Revenue Amount for such purposes reasonably and in good faith. In the event that the Holder Representative objects to the Results, then within fifteen (15) days after the delivery to the Holder Representative of the Results (the “Response Period”), the Holder Representative shall deliver to Acquiror a written notice (an “Objection Notice”) describing in reasonable detail the Holder Representative’s objections to the Results and setting forth the Results determined by the Holder Representative to be correct. If the Holder Representative does not deliver an Objection Notice to Acquiror during the Response Period, then Acquiror’s calculation of the Results shall be binding and conclusive on Acquiror, the Holder Representative, each Seller and each member of the Management Pool.

(ii) If the Holder Representative delivers an Objection Notice objecting to the Results during the Response Period in accordance with Section 2.5(b)(i), and if the Holder Representative and Acquiror are unable to resolve such dispute within twenty (20) days after such Objection Notice is delivered to Acquiror, then the dispute shall be finally settled by the Independent Accounting Firm at the sole cost and expense of the Holder Representative. If the Earnout Consideration for the applicable period as determined by the Independent Accounting Firm exceeds the Earnout Consideration as reported by Acquiror for such period, then Acquiror shall reimburse the Holder Representative for such cost and expense.

(c) Access to Necessary Information. At reasonable times during normal business hours and upon reasonable notice provided to Acquiror, Acquiror shall permit the Holder Representative (who shall have executed a confidentiality agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Acquiror) to make such inspections and copies of such books and records as it may reasonably require, and to discuss such matters with the appropriate personnel of the Company and Acquiror, each to the extent incident to the exercise of the Holder Representative’s right to object to Acquiror’s calculation of the Results. The Holder Representative agrees that he shall hold (and shall cause his advisors referred to in the preceding sentence to hold) all information acquired during such examination in strict confidence and shall use (and shall cause his advisors referred to in the preceding sentence to use) such information solely for determining the Results.

(d) Permitted Transfers. The interests of any Seller or any member of the Management Pool in any Earnout Consideration shall not be assignable or transferable, except: (a) by operation of law; (b) in connection with a Permitted Transfer (as defined below) (the assignee or transferee of any assignment or transfer permitted pursuant to this Section 2.5(d) being referred to as a “Transferee”); provided, however, that no assignment or transfer of any such interest may occur pursuant to this Section 2.5(d) unless the Transferee signs or delivers to Acquiror a counterpart to this Agreement agreeing to be bound by all of the terms hereof (it being understood that any attempted assignment or transfer in violation of this sentence shall be null and void). For purposes of this Section 2.5(d), “Permitted Transfer” shall mean any transfer: (A) if a Seller is an individual or with respect to a member of the Management Pool, upon the death of such Seller or member pursuant to any will, trust or similar instrument or pursuant to the laws of descent and distribution; or (B) if a Seller is a

corporation, trust, partnership or limited liability company, to one or more stockholders, beneficiaries, partners or members of such Seller.

To the extent that amounts are so withheld by Acquiror, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made, and Acquiror shall disburse such withheld amounts to the applicable Governmental Authority.

(d) by written notice of Acquiror or the Company and the Sellers to the other party if any Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction shall have issued a Governmental Order or taken any other action permanently enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated hereby and such Governmental Order or other action shall have become final and nonappealable, or if there shall be adopted any applicable Law that makes consummation of any of the transactions contemplated hereby illegal or otherwise prohibited.

ARTICLE XI.
HOLDER REPRESENTATIVE

11.1 Designation and Replacement of Holder Representative. The parties have agreed that it is desirable to designate a representative to act on behalf of the Sellers and members of the Management Pool for certain limited purposes, as specified herein (the “Holder Representative”). The parties have designated Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxx as the initial Holder Representative. The Holder Representative may resign at any time, and the Holder Representative may be removed by the vote of Persons which collectively owned more than fifty percent (50%) of the Aggregate Fully-Diluted Common Shares immediately prior to the Closing (the “Majority Holders”). In the event that a Holder Representative has resigned or been removed, a new Holder Representative shall be appointed by a vote of the Majority Holders, such appointment to become effective upon the written acceptance thereof by the new Holder Representative.

11.2 Authority and Rights of the Holder Representative; Limitations on Liability. The Holder Representative shall have such powers and authority as are necessary to carry out the functions assigned to it under this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement; provided, however, that the Holder Representative shall have no obligation to act on behalf of the Sellers or the members of the Management Pool except as expressly provided herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Holder Representative shall have full power, authority and discretion to, after the Closing, (i) negotiate and enter into amendments to this Agreement for and on behalf of the Sellers or the members of the Management Pool, (ii) give and receive notices and other communications relating to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, (iii) take or refrain from taking any actions (whether by negotiation, settlement, litigation or otherwise) to resolve or settle all matters and disputes arising out of or related to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including any disputes related to the achievement of Earnout Consideration triggering events and the payout of Earnout Consideration in accordance with Sections 2.5 and/or 2.6, and (iv) take all actions necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Holder Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing. The Holder Representative shall have no liability to Acquiror, the Company, any Seller or any member of the Management Pool with respect to actions taken or omitted to be taken in its capacity as the Holder Representative. The Holder Representative shall at all times be entitled to rely on any directions received from the Majority Holders. The Holder Representative shall be entitled to engage such counsel, experts and other agents and consultants as it shall deem necessary in connection with exercising its powers and performing its function hereunder and (in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Holder Representative) shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the opinions and advice of such Persons. The Holder Representative shall be entitled to

reimbursement from funds released from the Sellers and members of the Management Pool for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances (including fees and disbursements of its counsel, experts and other agents and consultants) incurred by the Holder Representative in such capacity, and shall be entitled to indemnification against any loss, liability or expenses arising out of actions taken or omitted to be taken in its capacity as the Holder Representative (except for those arising out of the Holder Representative’s gross negligence or willful misconduct), including the costs and expenses of investigation and defense of claims.

ARTICLE XII.
INDEMNIFICATION

12.1 Survival of Representations, Warranties and Covenants. Each representation warranty, covenant and obligation contained herein and any certificate related to any such representation, warranty, covenant or obligation will survive the Closing and continue in full force and effect until twenty-four (24) months after the Closing Date provided, however, that (A) the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.1 (Corporate Organization of the Company), 3.3 (Due Authorization), 3.6 (Capitalization of the Company), 3.14 (Taxes), 3.15 (Brokers’ Fees), 3.20 (Intellectual Property), 4.1 (Ownership of Purchased Shares), 4.2 (Due Authorization) and 4.6 (Brokers’ Fees) (collectively, the “Fundamental Representations”), (B) the representations and warranties in Sections 3.12 (Employee Benefit Plans) and 3.21 (Environmental Matters), (C) the indemnification obligations of the Sellers and the members of the Management Pool pursuant to Section 12.2(c) of this Agreement and (D) the indemnification obligations of the holders of Preferred Shares, the members of the Management Pool and Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxx and Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxx pursuant to Section 12.2(j) of this Agreement each shall survive the Closing Date until the date that is sixty (60) days after the expiration of the statute of limitations applicable to the underlying claim. The date on which (i) any representation or warranty shall expire pursuant to the terms of this Section 12.1 or (ii) the indemnification obligations of the Sellers and the members of the Management Pool pursuant to Section 12.2(c) of this Agreement shall be deemed to be the “Survival Expiration Date” of each such representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement, as applicable. Each of the covenants and agreements of the parties set forth in this Agreement shall survive indefinitely.

12.2 Indemnification.

(a) From and after the Closing, subject to Section 12.4, the Sellers and the members of the Management Pool shall, severally but not jointly, hold harmless and indemnify Acquiror and its Subsidiaries, and each of their respective Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, equityholders, partners and members (collectively, the “Acquiror Indemnified Parties”) from and against, and shall compensate and reimburse each of the Acquiror Indemnified Parties for, any and all Losses to the extent attributable to:

(i) any breach of any representation or warranty the Company or the Sellers have made in this Agreement or in any certificate delivered pursuant to Section 9.2 hereof;

(ii) any breach, violation or default by the Company or the Sellers of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Company or the Sellers in this Agreement (each, a “Company Covenant,” and collectively, the “Company Covenants”);

(iii) any Holder Allocable Expenses in excess of the Estimated Holder Allocable Expenses;

(iv) any Funded Debt not reflected on the Schedule of Funded Debt or not paid off at Closing;

(v) any liability relating to the engagement letter by and between the Company and BTI Group which is not paid off at Closing; and

(vi) a claim by any holder of equity interests or capital stock of the Company that it is entitled to any portion of the Purchase Price.

(b) Subject to Section 12.4, Acquiror shall indemnify and hold the Holder Representative and the Sellers and the members of the Management Pool (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) harmless for any and all Losses to the extent attributable to (i) any breach of any representation or warranty Acquiror has made in this Agreement or in any certificate delivered pursuant to Section 9.3 hereof or (ii) any breach, violation or default by Acquiror of any covenant, agreement or obligation of Acquiror in this Agreement.

(c) The Sellers and the members of the Management Pool shall, severally but not jointly, indemnify the Acquiror Indemnified Parties and hold them harmless from and against, and shall compensate and reimburse each of the Acquiror Indemnified Parties for, any and all Losses attributable to (i) all Taxes (or the non-payment thereof) of the Company for all Pre-Closing Tax Periods, (ii) any and all Taxes of any member of an affiliated, consolidated, combined, or unitary group of which the Company (or any predecessor of any of the foregoing) is or was a member on or prior to the Closing Date, including pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-6 or any analogous or similar state, local, or foreign law or regulation, (iii) any and all Taxes of any Person (other than the Company) imposed on the Company as a transferee or successor, by contract or pursuant to any law, rule or regulation, which Taxes relate to an event or transaction occurring before the Closing, (iv) any breach of the representations in Section 3.14, (v) any breach of the covenants with respect to Taxes contained in Article VI, and (vi) any withholding taxes, employer side taxes, payroll taxes, or similar taxes incurred by reason of, or imposed on or with respect to, any payments made to, or for the benefit of, the Sellers or the Management Pool. In the case of any Straddle Period, the amount of any Taxes based on or measured by income, receipts, sales or payroll of the Company 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 for such purpose, the taxable period of any partnership or other pass-through entity in which the Company holds a beneficial interest shall be deemed to terminate at such time) and the amount of other Taxes of the Company 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.

(d) The holders of Preferred Shares, the members of the Management Pool, Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxx and Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxx shall, severally but not jointly, indemnify the Acquiror Indemnified Parties and hold them harmless from and against, and shall compensate and reimburse each of the Acquiror Indemnified Parties for, any and all Losses attributable to any claim by any Seller related to the Purchased Shares, including, but not limited to claims that a Seller is entitled to a greater portion of the Purchase Price than paid under the Agreement and claims in connection with the tax treatment of the Purchased Shares and tax and federal and state securities laws compliance.

(e) The Acquiror Indemnified Parties shall have recourse against the Escrow Fund and all unpaid Earnout Consideration with respect to any Losses resulting from the matters referred to in this Section 12.2.

(f) The Sellers and the members of the Management Pool shall, severally but not jointly, indemnify the Acquiror Indemnified Parties in accordance with their portion of the Purchase Price allocated, which indemnification obligation shall not exceed the portion of the Purchase Price he, she or it has actually received; provided that this Section 12.2(f) does not apply to Section 12.2(d) and with respect to Section 12.2(d), the holders of Preferred Shares, the members of the Management Pool, Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxx and Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxx hereby agree to indemnify the Acquiror Indemnified Parties for any additional amount of Losses, if any, on a pro rata basis, equal to the difference between the Purchase Price received by all Sellers and the members of the Management Pool and the Purchase Price he, she or it has actually received.

12.3 Indemnification Claim Procedures. If any Action is commenced or threatened that may give rise to a claim for indemnification (an “Indemnification Claim”) by any Person entitled to indemnification under this Agreement (each, an “Indemnified Party”), then such Indemnified Party will promptly give notice to the Indemnitor. Failure to notify the Indemnitor will not relieve the Indemnitor of any liability that it may have to the Indemnified Party, except to the extent the defense of such Action is materially prejudiced by the Indemnified Party’s failure to give such notice. An Indemnitor may elect at any time to assume and thereafter conduct the defense of any Action subject to any such Indemnification Claim with counsel of the Indemnitor’s choice and to settle or compromise any such Action, and each Indemnified Party shall reasonably cooperate with the conduct of such defense by the Indemnitor and/or the settlement of such Action by the Indemnitor; provided, however, that the Indemnitor (i) may not assume the defense of any Action unless such Indemnitor first provides written notice to the Indemnified Party that the Indemnitor would be liable under the provisions hereof for indemnity in the amount of such Indemnification Claim if such Indemnification Claim were valid and that the Indemnitor disputes and intends to defend against such Indemnification Claim at the Indemnitor’s own cost and expense and (ii) will not approve of the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or compromise with respect to the Indemnification Claim without the Indemnified Party’s prior written approval (which must not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), unless the terms of such settlement provide for a complete release of the claims that are the subject of such Action in favor of the Indemnified Party. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, the Indemnitor shall not have the right to assume control of the defense, and shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel retained by the Indemnified Party, if the third party claim which such Indemnitor seeks to assume control of: (i) seeks non-monetary relief; (ii) involves criminal or quasi-criminal allegations; (iii) is one in which an Indemnitor and the

Indemnified Party are both named in the complaint, and joint representation by the same counsel would be inappropriate under applicable standards of ethical conduct; (iv) could reasonably be expected to adversely affect the Taxes of the Business acquired by Acquiror hereunder for a taxable period (or portion thereof) beginning after the Closing Date; or (v) involves a claim for which an adverse determination would have a material and adverse effect on the Indemnified Party’s reputation or future business prospects. If the Indemnified Party gives an Indemnitor notice of an Indemnification Claim and the Indemnitor does not, within ten (10) days after such notice is given, give notice to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume the defense of the Action or Actions subject to such Indemnification Claim and thereafter promptly assumes such defense, then the Indemnified Party may conduct the defense of such Action; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party will not agree to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or compromise with respect to the Action or Actions subject to any such Indemnification Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnitor (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). A claim for any matter not involving a third party may be asserted by written notice to the party from whom indemnification is sought; provided, however, that any Indemnification Claim in respect of any actual or alleged breach of representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained herein must be asserted prior to the expiration of the survival period provided for in Section 12.1.

12.4 Limitations on Indemnification Liability. Any claims an Indemnified Party makes under this Article XII will be limited as follows:

(a) Indemnification Cap. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof to the contrary but subject to the provisions of Section 12.2(f) and this Section 12.4, the aggregate amount of Losses for which the Acquiror Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article XII will not exceed the aggregate amount of Purchase Price actually paid by Acquiror (the “Cap”), provided, however, that the Cap shall not apply (i) to breaches of Fundamental Representations, (ii) Section 12.2(a)(ii), (iii) in the case of fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful breach, and (iv) Section 12.2(d).

(b) Basket. Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary, the Acquiror Indemnified Parties shall only be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 12.2(a)(i) to the extent the aggregate amount of all Losses incurred by the Acquiror Indemnified Parties for which the Acquiror Indemnified Parties are entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 12.2(a)(i) exceeds $100,000 (the “Basket Amount”); provided, however, (i) if the aggregate amount of Losses incurred by the Acquiror Indemnified Parties for which the Acquiror Indemnified Parties are entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article XII exceeds the Basket Amount, the Acquiror Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to recover from the first dollar of such Losses and (ii) the Basket Amount shall not apply to (i) breaches of Fundamental Representations and Section 12.2(a)(ii)-(vi), (ii) in respect of indemnification claims made pursuant to Sections 12.2(c) and (d) of this Agreement, or (iii) the case of fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful breach. Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary, the Seller Indemnified Parties shall only be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 12.2(b)(i) to the extent the aggregate amount of all Losses incurred by the Seller Indemnified Parties for which the Seller Indemnified Parties are entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article XII exceeds the Basket Amount, and the Seller Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to recover from the first dollar of such Losses.

(c) Consequential; Punitive and Other Special Damages. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, no Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnification for consequential, punitive, indirect or special damages unless such damages are awarded to a third party and such Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification under this Article XII with respect to such award; provided, however, any Losses in the nature of diminution in value or lost profits are expressly excluded from the limitations set forth in this Section 12.4(c) and an Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnification for such Losses.

12.5 Materiality. For purposes of determining the amount of Losses arising from a breach of or inaccuracy in any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation of the parties in this Agreement but not for purposes of determining whether any such representation, warranty, covenant or obligation has been breached or is inaccurate, limitations or qualifications as to dollar amount, materiality or Material Adverse Effect (or similar concept) set forth in such representation, warranty, covenant or obligation shall be disregarded.

12.6 Limitation on Contribution and Certain Other Rights. The Holder Representative hereby agrees that if, following the Closing, any claim is made by any Seller Indemnified Party or any amount otherwise becomes due from any Seller Indemnified Party pursuant to this Article XII in respect of any Losses (a “Loss Payment”), then, subject to the provisions of Section 7.1, such Seller Indemnified Party shall have no rights against the Company or any director, officer or employee thereof (in their capacity as such), whether by reason of contribution, indemnification, subrogation or otherwise, in respect of any such Loss Payment, and shall not take any action against the Company or any such person with respect thereto.

12.7 Escrow Account.

(a) On October 31, 2014 (the “First Release Date”), the Escrow Agent shall release to the Holder Representative any remaining amount of the Initial Escrow Amount, less the aggregate amount of all Losses specified in any then unresolved indemnification claims made by the Acquiror Indemnified Parties pursuant to this Article XII, less the amount of Closing Working Capital Adjustment pursuant to Section 2.4(c)(iii) (if elected by Acquiror). To the extent that any amount has been reserved and withheld from distribution from the Initial Escrow Amount on the First Release Date on account of an unresolved claim for indemnification and, subsequent to the First Release Date, such claim is resolved, the parties shall immediately direct the Escrow Agent to release (i) to Acquiror the amount of Losses, if any, due in respect of such claim as finally determined and (ii) to the Holder Representative an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the amount theretofore reserved and withheld from distribution in respect of such claim over the payment, if any, made pursuant to the foregoing clause (i) of this sentence. On the date that is 18 months following the First Earnout Payment Date (to the extent the First Earnout Amount is earned) (the “Second Release Date”), the Escrow Agent shall release to the Holder Representative any remaining amount of the Additional Escrow Amount, less the aggregate amount of all Losses specified in any then unresolved indemnification claims made by the Acquiror Indemnified Parties pursuant to this Article XII, less the amount of Closing Working Capital Adjustment pursuant to Section 2.4(c)(iii) (if elected by Acquiror and not otherwise satisfied from the Initial Escrow Amount). To the extent that any amount has been reserved and withheld from distribution from the Additional Escrow Amount on the Second Release Date on account of an unresolved claim for

indemnification and, subsequent to the Second Release Date, such claim is resolved, the parties shall immediately direct the Escrow Agent to release (i) to Acquiror the amount of Losses, if any, due in respect of such claim as finally determined and (ii) to the Holder Representative an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the amount theretofore reserved and withheld from distribution in respect of such claim over the payment, if any, made pursuant to the foregoing clause (i) of this sentence. The parties hereto agree that the accrued interest earned on the Escrow Amount shall be added to the corpus of the Escrow Amount and shall be available to fund indemnity claims made by the Indemnified Parties pursuant to this Article XII.

(b) All parties hereto agree for all tax purposes: (i) the right of the Sellers to receive any portion of the Escrow Amount shall be eligible to be treated as deferred contingent purchase price eligible for installment sale treatment under Section 453 of the Code and any corresponding provision of foreign, state or local law, as appropriate (except to the extent such amounts are compensatory); (ii) Acquiror shall be treated as the owner of the amount in the Escrow Amount solely for tax purposes, and all interest and earnings earned from the investment and reinvestment of the Escrow Amount, or any portion thereof, shall be allocable to Acquiror pursuant to Section 468B(g) of the Code and Proposed Treasury Regulation Section 1.468B-8; and (iii) if and to the extent any amount of Escrow Amount paid to the Stockholders is actually distributed thereto, interest may be imputed on such amount, as required by Section 483 or 1274 of the Code (except to the extent such amounts are compensatory). All parties hereto shall file all Tax Returns consistently with the foregoing.

13.15 Service of Process. For purposes of this Agreement, each of the parties hereto hereby (i) consents to service of process in any legal action, suit or proceeding among the parties to this Agreement arising in whole or in part under or in connection with the negotiation, execution and performance of this Agreement in any manner permitted by Delaware law, (ii) agrees that service of process made in accordance with this Section 13.15 or made by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, at its address specified pursuant to Section 13.2, will constitute good and valid service of process in any such legal action, suit or proceeding and (iii) waives and agrees not to assert (by way of motion, as a defense, or otherwise) in any such legal action, suit or proceeding any claim that service of process made in accordance with clause (i) or (ii) does not constitute good and valid service of process.

13.16 Specific Performance and Remedies. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement (without any requirement to post any bond or other security in connection with seeking such relief), in addition to any other remedy to which any party is entitled at law or in equity, exclusively in the Delaware Chancery Court and any state appellate court therefrom within the State of Delaware (or, if the Delaware Chancery Court shall be unavailable, any other court of the State of Delaware or any Federal court sitting in the State of Delaware). The parties hereto agree not to raise any objections to the availability of the equitable remedy of specific performance to prevent or restrain breaches of this Agreement by the Company and the Sellers, on the one hand, and to prevent or restrain breaches of this Agreement by Acquiror, on the other hand, and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of the parties under this Agreement. Each of the parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction,

specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that the other parties have an adequate remedy at law or an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or equity. Any party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction.

13.17 No Reliance. There are no promises, representations, agreements, arrangements, or understandings, oral or written, among the parties or any subset thereof relating to the subject matter of this Agreement which are not fully expressed in this Agreement. No party has relied upon, and no party shall be entitled to rely upon, any promises, representations, agreements, arrangements, or understandings, oral or written, among the parties or any subset thereof relating to the subject matter of this Agreement which are not fully expressed in this Agreement.

13.18 Legal Advice. Each party confirms that it has carefully read and reviewed this Agreement. Each party acknowledges that it has been advised in connection with this Agreement by its legal counsel and that it fully understands all of the Agreement’s terms and conditions. Each party executes and delivers this Agreement freely and voluntarily.
