In the event the Closing Date Payment is adjusted by the Sellers’ Representative in connection with any other payments to or from the Quest Sellers pursuant to this Agreement, including Section 2.06 (Post-Closing Adjustment) or any indemnification claim under Article XI (Indemnification), the Sellers’ Representative shall pay such adjustment to each applicable Quest Seller in accordance with such Seller’s Percentage Allocation.

(b) At the Closing, Buyer shall pay to the Escrow Agent an amount equal to the Adjustment Escrow Amount, which amount shall be deposited and held by the Escrow Agent pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Escrow Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the Adjustment Escrow Amount shall not reduce the Closing Consideration payable to the VMG Sellers hereunder.

(i) At the Closing, Buyer shall repay, or cause to be repaid all Estimated Voyage Holdings Indebtedness and Estimated VMG Blocker Indebtedness to the applicable persons and account(s) and in such amounts, each as set forth in the Payoff Letters.

(iii) The Parties acknowledge that the Indebtedness of the Target Companies as of the Closing Date, the Seller Transaction Expenses and the Target Company Transaction Expenses are obligations of the Sellers and Target Companies, as applicable, incurred on or before the Closing Date, and nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to make them obligations of Buyer. Payment of such Indebtedness, Seller Transaction Expenses and Target Company Transaction Expenses by Buyer (whether directly or indirectly) on behalf of Sellers and the Target Companies on the Closing Date is being made for convenience only.

(iv) At the Closing, (A) each Quest Seller (other than the holders of Class M Units) shall pay to Quest Nutrition, LLC an amount equal to (1) the aggregate amount of the Transaction Bonuses multiplied by (2) such Quest Seller’s Founder Proceeds Percentage and, thereafter, (B) Quest Nutrition, LLC shall pay the Transaction Bonuses to the recipients thereof via Quest Nutrition, LLC’s normal payroll practices. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the amounts paid by the Quest Sellers (other than the holders of Class M Units) to Quest Nutrition, LLC pursuant to this Section 2.02(c)(iv) shall not be included in the calculation of Closing Voyage Holdings Cash.

(a) At least three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing, the Sellers’ Representative and VMG Tax-Exempt shall deliver, or shall have delivered, to Buyer a definitive closing payment schedule (the “Closing Certificate”), (a) duly certified by an officer of Voyage Holdings as accurately setting forth Estimated Voyage Holdings Cash, Estimated Voyage Holdings Indebtedness, Estimated Working Capital, Estimated Seller Transaction Expenses, Estimated Target Company Transaction Expenses, Closing Consideration and the Sellers’ calculation of the VMG Exit Payment and (b) duly certified by an officer of VMG Blocker as accurately setting forth Estimated VMG Blocker Cash and Estimated VMG Blocker Indebtedness (each such calculation in clauses (a) and (b) foregoing, an “Estimated Closing Calculation” and, collectively, the “Estimated Closing Calculations”). The Estimated Closing Calculations shall be (i) calculated as of 12:01 a.m. Eastern time on the Closing Date and (ii) determined in good faith in accordance with GAAP applied on a basis consistent with, to the extent not inconsistent with GAAP, the methodologies, practices, estimation techniques, assumptions and principles used in the preparation of the Audited Financial Statements and the Sample Working Capital, as applicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, following the Closing, none of Buyer, the Target Companies or their respective Affiliates shall have any Liability or obligation to any of the Sellers or their Affiliates resulting from an incorrect calculation of the VMG Exit Payment as set forth in the Closing Certificate delivered to Buyer.

(b) No later than three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing, the Sellers’ Representative and VMG Tax-Exempt shall deliver, or shall have delivered, to Buyer a duly completed Allocation Schedule.

Section 2.06 Post-Closing Adjustment.

(a) Promptly, but in any event within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to the Sellers’ Representative and to VMG Tax-Exempt a statement (the “Post-Closing Statement”) setting forth Buyer’s good-faith determination of (A) the Aggregate Consideration and each of its components set forth in clauses (a) through (i) in the definition thereof (each a “Final Closing Calculation” and collectively, the “Final Closing Calculations”), in each case determined on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP applied on a basis consistent with, to the extent not inconsistent with GAAP, the methodologies, practices, estimation techniques, assumptions and principles used in the preparation of the Audited Financial Statements or VMG Blocker Financial Statements, and the Sample Working Capital, as applicable, and (B) the Proposed Adjustment Amount, in each case of clause (A) and (B), together with such detail and supporting documentation as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Sellers’ Representative and VMG Tax-Exempt, as applicable. The “Proposed Adjustment Amount” shall be equal to (which may be a positive or negative number) Buyer’s determination of the Aggregate Consideration as set forth on the Post-Closing Statement delivered pursuant to this Section 2.06(a) minus the Sellers’ Representative’s and VMG Blocker’s determination of Closing Consideration as set forth in the Closing Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 2.05 (Closing Certificate); provided, however, that any Proposed Adjustment Amount owing by the Sellers to Buyer shall not exceed the Adjustment Escrow Amount.

(b) If the (i) Sellers’ Representative disagrees with Buyer’s determination of any Final Closing Calculation or the resulting Proposed Adjustment Amount applicable to the Quest Sellers or (ii) VMG Tax Exempt disagrees with Buyer’s determination of any Final Closing Calculation or the resulting Proposed Adjustment Amount applicable to VMG Tax-Exempt, in each case as reflected on the Post-Closing Statement, the Sellers’ Representative and/or VMG Tax-Exempt may, within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Post-Closing Statement, deliver a written notice (the “Dispute Notice”) to Buyer setting forth in reasonable detail the grounds for such disputes and its calculation of each disputed amount (each an “Item of Dispute”). In preparing such Dispute Notice, the Sellers’ Representative and VMG Tax-Exempt shall, upon reasonable advance notice, and in a manner so as not to interfere with the normal business operations of the Target Companies, have reasonable access to all items and personnel reasonably requested by the Sellers’ Representative and VMG Tax-Exempt related to the Post-Closing Statement. If Buyer does not receive a Dispute Notice within thirty (30) days after receipt by the Sellers’ Representative or VMG Tax-Exempt of the Post-Closing Statement, the Post-Closing Statement shall be conclusive and binding upon each of the Parties. If Buyer receives a Dispute Notice from the Sellers’ Representative or VMG Tax-Exempt within thirty (30) days after receipt by the Sellers’ Representative and VMG Tax-Exempt of the Post-Closing Statement, Buyer, the Sellers’ Representative and VMG Tax-Exempt shall use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve each Item of Dispute, and, if any Item of Dispute is so resolved, the Post-Closing Statement shall be modified to the extent necessary to reflect such resolution. If any Item of Dispute remains unresolved as of the twentieth (20th) day after delivery by the Sellers’ Representative and/or VMG Tax-Exempt of the Dispute Notice, Buyer, the Sellers’ Representative and VMG Tax-Exempt shall jointly retain KPMG US LLP, or, if such firm is unable or unwilling to act or if such firm has been engaged by any of the Parties from or after the date hereof and is thus no longer “independent”, an independent “Big 4” accounting firm of recognized international standing as may be mutually agreed to by Buyer the Sellers’ Representative and VMG Tax-Exempt, as applicable (the “Accounting Firm”) to resolve such remaining disagreement. If Buyer, the Sellers’ Representative and VMG Tax-Exempt are unable to agree on the choice of the Accounting Firm within a 15-day period, then the Accounting Firm shall be the dispute resolution group of an accounting firm of national standing designated by the American Arbitration Association in New York, New York (which it determines does not have any material relationship with Buyer, the Sellers or any of their respective Affiliates). Buyer, the Sellers’ Representative and VMG Tax-Exempt shall request that the Accounting Firm render a determination as to each unresolved Item of Dispute within thirty (30) days after its retention. Buyer, Sellers’ Representative, Voyage Holdings, its Subsidiaries, VMG Tax-Exempt, VMG Blocker and their respective Representatives, as applicable, shall cooperate fully with the Accounting Firm so as to enable it to make such determination as quickly and accurately as practicable, including the provision by Buyer and the Target Companies of all books and records and work papers

(including those of accountants) relating to the Post-Closing Statement (with a copy to the other Party) and all other items reasonably requested by the Accounting Firm. Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative and/or VMG Tax-Exempt, as applicable shall be entitled to submit (with a copy to the other party) to the Accountant such documents and materials and to make such presentations and arguments as such party shall deem necessary or appropriate; provided that the Parties agree that no Party shall have any ex parte communications with the Accounting Firm. The Accounting Firm shall (i) limit its review to only those Items of Dispute that were set forth in the Post-Closing Statement and the Dispute Notice and that remain unresolved by Buyer, the Sellers’ Representative and VMG Tax-Exempt, (ii) be bound by the terms of this Agreement, including any definitions, (iii) only consider the documents, materials, presentations and arguments made by Buyer, the Sellers’ Representative and VMG Tax-Exempt, as applicable (i.e., shall not engage in any independent review) and (iv) act as an expert (and not an arbitrator). In resolving any Item of Dispute, the Accounting Firm may not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by either Person in the Post-Closing Statement or the Dispute Notice (as applicable) or less than the smallest value for such item claimed by either Person. The Accounting Firm’s determination(s) shall be based upon the definitions in the Post-Closing Statement or the Dispute Notice (as applicable) included in this Agreement. The Accounting Firm’s determination of each Item of Dispute submitted to it shall be in writing, shall conform with this Section 2.06 and shall, absent manifest error, be conclusive and binding upon each of the Parties, and the Post-Closing Statement shall be modified to the extent necessary to reflect such binding determination(s). The Accounting Firm shall provide a determination of the “Final Adjustment Amount” which shall be equal to (which may be a positive or negative number) the Accounting Firm’s determination of Aggregate Consideration pursuant to this Section 2.06 minus the Sellers’ Representative or VMG Tax-Exempt’s, as applicable, determination of Closing Consideration set forth in the Closing Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 2.05 (Closing Certificate); provided, however, that any Proposed Adjustment Amount owing by Sellers to Buyer shall not exceed the Adjustment Escrow Amount. The Accounting Firm shall allocate its fees, costs and expenses between Buyer, on the one hand, and the Sellers’ Representative (on behalf of the Sellers) or VMG Tax-Exempt’s, as applicable, on the other hand, based upon the percentage which the portion of the contested amount not awarded to each such Party bears to the amount actually contested by such Party.

(c) The “Final Adjustment Amount,” which may be a positive or negative number, shall be equal to (i) the amount agreed to as the Final Adjustment Amount at any time in writing by Buyer, the Sellers’ Representative and VMG Tax-Exempt; (ii) if a Dispute Notice is not delivered by the Sellers’ Representative or VMG Tax-Exempt to Buyer within the time period required by Section 2.06(b), the Proposed Adjustment Amount set forth in the Post-Closing Statement; or (iii) the Final Adjustment Amount as set forth in the written determination of the Accounting Firm made in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.06; provided, however, that the Final Adjustment Amount owing by Sellers to Buyer shall not exceed the Adjustment Escrow Amount.

(d) Payments. Within five (5) days after the determination of the Final Adjustment Amount, (i) if the Final Adjustment Amount (A) is a positive number and payable by Buyer to the Quest Sellers, Buyer shall pay (or cause to be paid) to the account(s) designated in writing by the Sellers’ Representative (for the benefit of the Quest Sellers, other than holders of Class M Units of Voyage Holdings) an amount in cash equal to the Final Adjustment Amount or (B) is a positive number and payable from Buyer to VMG Tax-Exempt, Buyer shall pay (or cause to be paid) to the account(s) designated in writing by VMG Tax Exempt an amount in cash equal to the Final Adjustment Amount; (ii) if the Final Adjustment Amount (A) is a negative number and payable by the Quest Sellers to Buyer, the Sellers’ Representative shall direct the Escrow Agent to pay to the account designated in writing by Buyer (x) an amount in cash from the Adjustment Escrow Amount equal to the lesser of the Final Adjustment Amount and the Adjustment Escrow Amount and (b) is a negative number and payable by VMG Tax-Exempt to Buyer, VMG Tax-Exempt shall pay or cause to be paid to the account(s) designated in writing by Buyer an amount in cash equal to the Final Adjustment Amount. VMG Tax-Exempt agrees that from the Closing

until the Final Adjustment Amount is finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.06, it shall retain from the Closing Consideration paid to VMG Tax-Exempt, and not distribute or otherwise utilize, an amount equal to $1,000,000 in support of any potential payment obligations of VMG Tax Exempt under this Section 2.06(d). Any payments made pursuant to this Section 2.06 shall be treated by the Parties hereunder as an adjustment to the cash proceeds received by the Sellers in the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the aggregate amount to be paid by Buyer with respect to the purchase of the Stock and the Units pursuant to this Article II shall not exceed the Aggregate Consideration as finally determined in accordance with this Agreement.

Section 2.07 Withholding Rights. Each of the Sellers’ Representative, VMG Tax-Exempt, Buyer and its applicable Affiliates, the Escrow Agent and any other applicable withholding agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any payment under this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement such Taxes as it is required to deduct or withhold with respect to the making of such payment or any other Tax withholding obligation with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. To the extent that amounts are so withheld or deducted, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to such Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

respect there (collectively, the “Transfer Taxes”), shall be borne 50% Buyer, on the one hand, and 50% by Sellers (pro rata in accordance with their Percentage Allocations), on the other hand. The Sellers and Buyer shall cooperate in timely making all filings, returns, reports and forms as necessary or appropriate to comply with the provisions of all applicable Tax Laws in connection with the payment of such Transfer Taxes, and shall cooperate in good faith to minimize, to the fullest extent possible under such Tax Laws, the amount of any such Transfer Taxes payable in connection therewith.

(ii) to the extent there is a “more likely than not” basis under applicable Law, to treat any Transaction Deductions paid or accrued on or before the Closing as deductible in a Pre-Closing Tax Period (or portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date) and no Party hereto shall apply the “next day rule” under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-76(b)(1)(ii)(B) to such Transaction Deductions;

(v) that no election shall be made by any Party (or any Target Company) under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-76(b)(2) (or any similar provision of state, local, or non-U.S. Law) to ratably allocate items incurred by any Target Company; and

(vi) unless otherwise required by a determination of a Governmental Authority that is final and to the extent there is a “more likely than not” basis under applicable Law, the Sellers and Buyer shall prepare and file all Tax Returns described in Section 8.09(a) (and cause the Target Companies and each other applicable Affiliate to file all Tax Returns), including timely and properly making all agreed elections, consistently with the agreements set forth in this Section 8.09(d) and neither the Sellers nor Buyer shall take any position (and Buyer shall not allow any Target Company or any of its other Affiliates to take any position) on any such Tax Return (or during the course of any audit or other Action with respect to any such Tax Returns) that is inconsistent with the agreements set forth in this Section 8.09(d) or any election made pursuant thereto.

(e) Tax Proceedings. If a claim shall be made by any Governmental Authority in respect of a Flow-Through Tax Return of any of the Target Companies (or any of their Subsidiaries) for a Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period, Buyer shall promptly and in any event no more than ten (10) days following Buyer’s receipt of such claim, give written notice to the Sellers’ Representative of such claim.

(h) Seller Tax Matter. Buyer shall not, and, following the Closing, shall not allow any Target Company or any of their Subsidiaries to, amend any Flow-Through Tax Return of the Target Company or any of their Subsidiaries for a Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period or otherwise initiate (or agree to) any other Seller Tax Matter without the prior written consent of the Sellers’ Representative (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(including the applicable Liabilities of Voyage Holdings and other relevant items) among the assets of Voyage Holdings (and further allocated among the assets of Voyage Holdings’ Subsidiaries that are treated as partnerships or disregarded entities for U.S. federal and applicable state and local Income Tax purposes) (the “Purchase Price Allocation Schedule”).

Section 8.10 Non-Competition; Non-Solicitation; Non-Disparagement.

(a) Non-Competition. Each of the individuals set forth on Schedule 8.10(a) (each, a “Restricted Seller”), on behalf of himself and such Restricted Seller’s Affiliates, agrees that (from the Closing Date until the third (3rd) anniversary of the Closing Date) such Restricted Seller shall not, and shall cause each of its Affiliates to not, directly or indirectly, in any manner (whether on his own account, or as an owner, operator, manager, consultant, officer, director, employee, investor, agent or otherwise), (i) engage or assist others directly or indirectly in any Competing Business, (ii) own any interest in, manage, control, provide financing to, participate in (whether as an owner, operator, manager, consultant, officer, director, employee, investor, agent, representative or otherwise), render services for or consult with any Person that is engaged directly or indirectly in a Competing Business or (iii) intentionally interfere in any material respect with the business relationships (whether formed prior to or after the date of this Agreement) between Voyage Holdings and its Subsidiaries, and customers or suppliers of Voyage Holdings and its Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Restricted Seller may own, directly or indirectly, solely as an investment, securities of any Person if such Restricted Seller is not a controlling Person of, or a member of a group which controls, such Person and does not, directly or indirectly, together with such Restricted Seller’s Affiliates, own five percent (5%) or more of any class of securities of such Person.

(b) Non-Solicitation. Each Restricted Seller agrees that, from the Closing Date until the second (2nd) anniversary of the Closing Date, such Restricted Seller shall not, and shall cause each of its Affiliates to not, directly or indirectly, in any manner (whether on its own account, as an owner, operator, manager, consultant, officer, director, employee, investor, agent or otherwise), recruit, solicit or otherwise attempt to employ, engage or enter into any business relationship with any Person employed by Buyer or

the Target Companies or their Subsidiaries, or encourage, induce or attempt to induce or encourage any such Person to leave such employment; provided, however, that this provision will not restrict the ability to solicit any Person through a general advertisement not directed specifically to any such Person (but not to employ as a result thereof).

(c) Non-Disparagement. Each Party agrees not to make any negative or disparaging statements or communications regarding any other Party, any of their respective services or practices, or any of their respective Representatives or Affiliates, either orally or in writing, at any time from and after the date hereof; provided that this covenant is not intended to restrict any Party from truthfully cooperating in any Action or from enforcing this Agreement.

(d) Seller Confidentiality Obligations. From and after the Closing Date through the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Closing Date (but with respect to Confidential Information that constitutes a trade secret under applicable Law, from the Closing Date through the later of the end of the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Closing Date and the date that such Confidential Information is no longer a trade secret under applicable Law), each Seller shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, treat and hold as strictly confidential and (A) not make available, sell, disclose or otherwise communicate to any Person any Confidential Information, and (B) refrain from using any of the Confidential Information (other than for the benefit of Buyer and its Affiliates, including the Target Companies); provided, that (i) each Seller shall be permitted to disclose Confidential Information strictly on a need-to-know basis to such Seller’s legal, accounting or financial advisors, provided such Person agrees to be bound by confidentiality obligations with such Seller obligating such Person to keep such Confidential Information confidential, (ii) each Seller that is an individual shall be permitted to disclose Confidential Information to such Seller’s spouse, provided that such spouse is informed of the confidential nature of such Confidential Information and agrees to keep such Confidential Information confidential (and such Seller shall be liable for his or her spouse’s breach of such confidentiality obligations), and (iii) each VMG Seller and its Affiliates (excluding portfolio companies) shall be permitted to disclose Confidential Information to any affiliated private equity, venture capital or similar funds that directly or indirectly control such VMG Seller or such Affiliates or any existing and prospective investors in such funds or successor funds solely if and to the extent (A) such disclosure is made for the purpose of, and limited to, reasonable financial reporting or bona fide fundraising activities and (B) such affiliated funds and existing or prospective investors are bound by confidentiality obligations with the disclosing VMG Seller or Affiliate of such VMG Seller obligating such Person to keep such Confidential Information confidential. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement, Buyer acknowledges that (1) the VMG Sellers and their Affiliates are engaged in the business of making investments in a variety of companies at various stages of development (the “Investment Business”), (2) in the course of carrying on the Investment Business, employees, officers, managers, and directors of the VMG Sellers and their Affiliates receive and review confidential and proprietary information from many sources, invest in many companies, and mentor, advise and otherwise interact with (including by providing individuals to serve on the boards of) investee/portfolio companies, (3) the VMG Sellers and their Affiliates shall not be prohibited from engaging in the Investment Business solely as a result of the possession of any Confidential Information, and (4) the VMG Sellers’ and their respective Affiliates’ directors, officers, managers or employees may serve as directors, officers and managers of portfolio companies of investment funds managed by the VMG Sellers, and Buyer agrees that such portfolio companies will not be deemed to have received Confidential Information solely because any such individual serves on the board or is an officer or managers of such portfolio companies; provided, that such individuals have not provided any Confidential Information to such portfolio companies or to any other director, officer, employee or other representative of such portfolio companies. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary herein, VMG Sellers and their Affiliates shall not disclose any Confidential Information to any portfolio company of any VMG Seller or its Affiliates (including Affiliated investment funds), or use (directly or indirectly) any Confidential Information for the benefit of any portfolio company of any VMG Seller or its Affiliates (including Affiliated investment funds). In the event that any Seller or any of their

respective Affiliates is requested or required (by oral question or request for information or documents in any legal proceeding, interrogatory, subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar process) to disclose any Confidential Information, such Seller, as applicable, shall notify Buyer or the Target Companies promptly of the request or requirement so that Buyer or the Target Companies may seek an appropriate protective order (at its expense) or waive compliance with the provisions of this Section 8.10(d). If, in the absence of a protective order or the receipt of a waiver hereunder, such Seller, as applicable, or any of its Affiliates is compelled to disclose any Confidential Information to any court or tribunal, such party may disclose the Confidential Information to such court or tribunal; provided that such party shall use such party’s commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, at the request and expense of Buyer, an order or other assurance that confidential treatment shall be accorded to such portion of the Confidential Information required to be disclosed. For the purposes of this Section 8.10(d), “Confidential Information” means all information of a confidential or proprietary nature (whether or not specifically labeled or identified as “confidential”), in any form or medium, that relates to the business, assets, products, services and/or research and development of Voyage Holdings, its Subsidiaries and/or their respective suppliers, distributors, customers, independent contractors and/or other business relations. Confidential Information includes, but is not limited to, the following: (i) internal business information (including historical and projected financial information and budgets and information relating to strategic and staffing plans and practices, business, training, marketing, promotional and sales plans and practices, cost, rate and pricing structures and accounting and business methods); (ii) identities of, individual requirements of, specific contractual arrangements with, and information about, suppliers, distributors, customers, independent contractors or other business relations and their confidential information; (iii) trade secrets, source code and methods of operation relating to Voyage Holdings’ and its Subsidiaries’ products or services or business, know how, compilations of data and analyses, techniques, systems, formulae, research, records, reports, manuals, documentation, models, data and data bases relating thereto; and (iv) inventions, innovations, improvements, developments, methods, designs, analyses, drawings, reports and all similar or related information (whether or not patentable).

(e) Buyer Confidentiality Obligations. From and after the Closing Date through the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Closing Date, Buyer shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, treat and hold as strictly confidential and (A) not make available, sell, disclose or otherwise communicate to any Person any Seller Confidential Information, and (B) refrain from using any of the Seller Confidential Information (other than for the benefit of such Seller and its Affiliates), without the prior written consent of the applicable Seller. In the event that Buyer or any of its Affiliates is requested or required (by oral question or request for information or documents in any legal proceeding, interrogatory, subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar process) to disclose any Seller Confidential Information, Buyer, as applicable, shall notify the applicable Seller promptly of the request or requirement so that such Seller may seek an appropriate protective order or waive compliance with the provisions of this Section 8.10(e). If, in the absence of a protective order or the receipt of a waiver hereunder, Buyer, as applicable, or any of its Affiliates is compelled to disclose any Seller Confidential Information to any court or tribunal, such party may disclose the Confidential Information to such court or tribunal; provided that such party shall use such party’s commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, at the request and expense of such Seller, an order or other assurance that confidential treatment shall be accorded to such portion of the Confidential Information required to be disclosed. For the purposes of this Section 8.10(e), “Seller Confidential Information” means all information of a confidential or proprietary and non-public nature (whether or not specifically labeled or identified as “confidential”), in any form or medium, that relates to any Seller or their Affiliates (excluding for the avoidance of doubt, the Target Companies and their Subsidiaries) obtained by Buyer or its Affiliates in connection with or a result of the preparation, negotiation or execution of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

(f) Enforcement. If, at the time of enforcement of Section 8.10(a), Section 8.10(b), Section 8.10(c), Section 8.10(d) or Section 8.10(e), a court holds that the restrictions stated therein are

unreasonable under circumstances then existing, the Parties agree that the maximum period, scope or geographical area reasonable under such circumstances shall be substituted for the stated period, scope or area and that the court shall be allowed to revise the restrictions contained therein to cover the maximum period, scope and area permitted by Law. Because each Seller has had access to confidential, non-public or proprietary information and materials regarding Voyage Holdings and its Subsidiaries by virtue of its investment in and involvement with (and as, applicable, employment by) Voyage Holdings and its Subsidiaries, the Parties agree that (i) Buyer and its Affiliates (including, from and after the Closing, the Target Companies) may suffer irreparable harm from a breach of Section 8.10(a), Section 8.10(b), Section 8.10(c) or Section 8.10(d), by such Seller or its Affiliates and (ii) the Sellers and their Affiliates may suffer irreparable harm from a breach of Section 8.10(c) or Section 8.10(e) and that, in each case, money damages might not be an adequate remedy for any such breach of this Agreement. Therefore, in the event of a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement, the Parties and their successors or permitted assigns, in addition to other rights and remedies existing in their favor, shall be entitled to seek specific performance and/or injunctive or other equitable relief from a court of competent jurisdiction in order to enforce, or prevent any violations of, the provisions hereof. Each Party acknowledges that the restrictions contained in this Section 8.10 are reasonable and that he, she or it has reviewed the provisions of this Agreement with his, her or it legal counsel.

Section 8.11 Exclusivity. Unless and until this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Article X (Termination; Effect of Termination), each Seller, Voyage Holdings and VMG Blocker agrees that Buyer shall have the exclusive right to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any other similar transaction with the Sellers, Voyage Holdings and VMG Blocker for the period commencing on the date hereof and continuing until the earlier of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Article X (Termination; Effect of Termination) (the “Exclusivity Period”). During the Exclusivity Period, each Seller, Voyage Holdings and VMG Blocker shall not, directly or indirectly, through any officer, director, manager, employee, agent or otherwise (including through any investment banker, attorney or accountant retained by any of the foregoing), solicit, initiate or encourage the submission of any proposal or offer from any Person (including any of such Person’s officers, directors, employees, agents or other representatives) relating to any liquidation, dissolution, recapitalization or refinancing of Voyage Holdings, VMG Blocker, Quest Nutrition, LLC or their respective Subsidiaries, or any acquisition by any means of the capital stock or other securities of Voyage Holdings, VMG Blocker or Quest Nutrition, LLC, or all or substantially all of the assets of any of Voyage Holdings, VMG Blocker or Quest Nutrition, LLC (including any acquisition structured as a merger, consolidation, share exchange or similar transaction), or participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding, or furnish to any other Person any information with respect to, or accept, agree to, or enter into, any letter of intent, arrangement or agreement with respect to or otherwise cooperate in any way with, assist, participate in, facilitate or encourage any effort or attempt by any other Person to do or seek to do, any of the foregoing. Each of Voyage Holdings and the Sellers also agree that in the event any third party expresses an interest in acquiring Voyage Holdings, VMG Blocker or Quest Nutrition, LLC, after the date of this Agreement and prior to the Closing Date, whether directly or through an intermediary, it will inform Buyer of the terms of such inquiry within twenty-four (24) hours of receipt; provided, that to the extent that such disclosures would violate the terms of any binding contractual obligations with any third party, nothing herein shall require Voyage Holdings and the Sellers to disclose the terms of any such inquiry, the identity of the Person making such inquiry or any information, other than that such an inquiry was so received. Each of Voyage Holdings and the Sellers shall immediately terminate any existing activities, discussions, negotiations and/or correspondence with any Person (other than Buyer and its representatives) regarding any such transaction, including terminating any access to any online or other datasites and shall instruct any Person with whom Voyage Holdings or the Sellers had discussions or negotiations concerning any such transaction prior to the date hereof to return or destroy any confidential information.

Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 8.12 to the contrary (but other than with respect to Section 8.12(f)), in no event shall the Sellers, the Target Companies or any of their Affiliates be required to provide any financial statements to the Buyer pursuant to this Agreement other than the Financial Statements and its customary quarterly financial statements for the periods ended June 30, 2019 and, to the extent that the Closing Date occurs on or after October 31, 2019, September 30, 2019.

(b) Buyer shall, promptly upon written request by the Target Companies, reimburse the Target Companies, as applicable, for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs incurred by the Target Companies in connection with their cooperation obligations under this Section 8.12 (excluding preparation of financial statements in the Ordinary Course of Business) at the request of Buyer.

provided that Released Matters shall not include (collectively, the “Non-Released Matters”) (i) any rights pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, (ii) any rights under any directors and officers insurance of the Target Companies, (iii) any rights pursuant to agreements governing indemnification, exculpation or insurance of such Seller or his, her or its Affiliates (in whatever position or role), (iv) rights for any entitlement to salary, bonuses and other compensation or benefits (including, for the avoidance of doubt, vacation and sick leave) earned or accrued by or for the benefit of such Seller in respect of employment services performed by him or her, but in each case, only to the extent included as a Liability, and (v) rights for reimbursement of expenses incurred by such Seller or his, her or its Affiliates relating to his, her or its management services, employment and/or directorship which are reimbursable under the Target Companies’ expense reimbursement policies or under any agreements such Seller or his, her or its Affiliates currently has with the Target Companies with respect to such reimbursements.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Releasor waives all rights under California Civil Code Section 1542 (or any similar provision of any other state law), which provides:

A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE WHICH, IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER, MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.

(b) It is the intention of the Sellers in executing the release contained in this Section 8.13 and in giving and receiving the consideration called for herein, that this release shall be effective as a full and final accord and satisfaction and general release of and from all Released Matters. Each Seller hereby severally (and not jointly) represents to Buyer that such Seller has not voluntarily or involuntarily assigned or transferred or purported to assign or transfer to any person any Released Matters and that, to such Seller’s knowledge, no person other than such Seller has any interest in any Released Matters by applicable Law or contract by virtue of any action or inaction by such Seller in a manner that would derogate from or otherwise prejudice the foregoing waiver.

(c) In furtherance, and not in limitation, of the forgoing, each of the Sellers (i) agrees that by receiving the amount of the Aggregate Consideration, allocated to such Seller as provided in this Agreement (subject to any withholding or deduction to be made in accordance with this Agreement), such Seller will be fully compensated for the transfer of his, her or its Stock and/or Units, as applicable, to Buyer, and (ii) agrees that all claims by such Seller to any consideration for the transfer of his, her or its Stock and/or Units, as applicable, to Buyer or cancelation of his, her or its Share Options (as applicable), other than as provided in this Agreement and the agreements ancillary to it (including the Escrow Agreement), or, subject to Section 8.07 and as otherwise set forth in this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, as set forth in the proviso to the first sentence of Section 8.13(a)), for any other rights that such Seller holds in Buyer, the Target Companies or any of their Affiliates (including as a result of any terms of the Voyage Holdings Organizational Documents or the VMG Blocker Organizational Documents), is forever waived.

(d) The invalidity or unenforceability of any part of this Section 8.13 shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of this Section 8.13, which shall remain in full force and effect.

(i) the Quest Sellers (other than the holders of Class M Units) shall be obligated to indemnify the Buyer Indemnified Parties until the aggregate Damages of the Buyer Indemnified Parties from breaches of any representation or warranty contained in Section 3.04 or Section 3.20 until such Damages equal $3,750,000;

(ii) thereafter, the Quest Sellers (other than the holders of Class M Units) shall be obligated to indemnify the Buyer Indemnified Parties until the aggregate Damages of the Buyer Indemnified Parties from breaches of any representation or warranty contained in Section 3.04 or Section 3.20 (when taken together with all other Damages sustained by the Buyer Indemnified Parties pursuant to Section 11.02(b)(ii)) are in excess of $3,750,000 and less than or equal to $103,750,000; provided, however, that such Quest Sellers shall not be required to indemnify the Buyer Indemnified Parties to the extent that such Damagers have been actually recovered by Buyer under the R&W Insurance Policy; and

(iii) thereafter, the Quest Sellers (other than the holders of Class M Units) shall be obligated to indemnify the Buyer Indemnified Parties for aggregate Damages resulting from breaches of any representation or warranty contained in Section 3.04 that are (when taken together with all other Damages sustained by the Buyer Indemnified Parties pursuant to Section 11.02(b)(ii)) in excess of $103,750,000 until the applicable Indemnity Cap has been reached (and, for the avoidance of doubt, this Section 11.04(b)(iii) shall not apply to breaches of any representation or warranty contained in Section 3.20, and the Quest Sellers’ obligations to indemnify the Buyer Indemnified Parties for any such breaches shall be limited to the amount set forth in Section 11.04(b)(i)).

(c) Each Person providing indemnification pursuant to this Article XI is also referred to herein as an “Indemnifying Party,” and each Person being indemnified pursuant to this Article XI is also referred to herein as an “Indemnified Party.” For purposes of determining the Liability of any Indemnifying Party under this Article XI for any Damages, appropriate reductions shall be made to reflect (i) the present value, as of the date payment is made, of the Tax benefits, if any (determined after taking into account any Tax detriment arising from indemnification hereunder) actually realized (determined on a “with or without” basis and after first taking into account all other items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit of such Indemnified Party or group) in the taxable year in which the Damages arose or the immediately succeeding taxable year by the Indemnified Party (or any consolidated, combined or unitary group of which the Indemnified Party is also a member) attributable to (A) the incurrence or payment of such Damage and (B)

a correlative adjustment that makes allowable to the Indemnified Party any deduction, amortization, exclusion from income or other allowance and (ii) the recovery pursuant to any insurance policy received or that is reasonably expected to be received by any Indemnified Party in respect of such Damages. If an indemnification payment is received by any Indemnified Party, and such Indemnified Party later recognizes insurance recoveries or such Tax benefits, as described in the immediately preceding sentence, in respect of the related Damages or indemnification payments that were not previously accounted for with respect to such Damages or indemnification payments when made, such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party, and promptly, but in any event no later than five (5) days after delivery of such notice by such Indemnified Party, pay to the Indemnifying Party an amount equal to the lesser of (A) any such insurance recoveries and such Tax benefits and (B) the actual amount of the indemnification payments previously paid by the Indemnifying Party with respect to such Damages.

(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event of Fraud by (i) a Seller, only such Seller (and not any other Seller) shall be liable for any Damages payable to the Buyer Indemnified Parties in respect thereof, (ii) Voyage Holdings, each Quest Seller (other than the Holders of Class M Units) shall be liable severally and not jointly for its portion of such Damages (pro rata based upon such Quest Seller’s Founder Proceeds Percentage) to the Buyer Indemnified Parties in respect thereof, and (iii) VMG Blocker, VMG Tax-Exempt shall be liable for the Damages payable to the Buyer Indemnified Parties in respect thereof, except, in each case (i) through (iii), that no Seller shall be liable for Damages under this Article XI or any other provision of this Agreement in excess of the total proceeds received by such Seller pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 11.05 Exclusive Remedy. From and after the Closing, each Party acknowledges and agrees that its sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims relating to the subject matter of this Agreement and transactions contemplated hereby (other than Actions for equitable or injunctive relief and Section 2.06 or arising from or related to Fraud (but subject to the limitations set forth in this Article XI)) shall be pursuant to the indemnification set forth in this Article XI. In furtherance of the foregoing, but without limiting the rights of indemnification expressly provided for under Section 11.02 (Indemnification by the Sellers) and Section 11.03 (Indemnification by Buyer) (and subject to the other provisions of this Article XI), each Indemnified Party hereby waives, from and after the Closing, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action (including any right, whether arising at Law or in equity, to seek indemnification, contribution, cost recovery, damages or any other recourse or remedy, including the remedy of rescission and remedies that may arise under common law) it may have against any Indemnifying Party whether arising under or based upon any federal, state, local or foreign Law (including any Environmental Requirement) or otherwise.

Section 11.06 Procedures for Third-Party Claims. In the event that an Indemnified Party determines that it has a claim for Damages against an Indemnifying Party arising from a claim of a third party (a “Third-Party Claim”), the Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party in writing, and in reasonable detail, of the Third-Party Claim as promptly as reasonably practicable after receipt by such Indemnified Party of notice of the Third-Party Claim; provided, that failure to give such notification on a timely basis shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except to the extent the Indemnifying Party shall have been materially prejudiced as a result of such failure. Thereafter, the Indemnified Party shall deliver to the Indemnifying Party from time to time, promptly, but in any event within five (5) days of becoming aware of any facts or circumstances that would reasonably be expected to give rise to, or be in furtherance of, a claim for indemnification hereunder, written notice thereof to the Indemnifying Party, specifying the amount of such claim, the nature and basis of such claim and all relevant facts and circumstances relating thereto, including copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnified Party relating to the Third-Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of the Third-Party Claim and, if it elects, to assume the defense thereof with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party. Should an Indemnifying Party elect to assume the defense

of a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof. If the Indemnifying Party assumes such defense, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense thereof and to employ counsel, at its own expense, separate from the counsel employed by the Indemnifying Party, it being understood, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall control such defense. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume or maintain control of the defense of any Third-Party Claim if (i) the Third-Party Claim relates to or arises in connection with any criminal Action or allegations, (ii) the Third-Party Claim seeks an injunction or equitable relief against the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates, (iii) the Indemnifying Party has failed or is failing to prosecute or defend the Third-Party Claim vigorously; (iv) the estimated potential Damages (as reasonably determined by the Indemnified Party) would exceed the applicable Indemnity Cap(s) or (v) such claim involves a Governmental Authority or any customer of Voyage Holdings or its Subsidiaries set forth on Schedule 3.22. Subject to the limitations set forth in this Article XI, the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel employed by the Indemnified Party for any period during which the Indemnifying Party has elected not to assume the defense thereof. If the Indemnifying Party elects to defend a Third-Party Claim, each Party shall reasonably cooperate in the defense or prosecution of such Third-Party Claim. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the Indemnifying Party’s request) the provision by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party of records and information which are reasonably relevant to such Third-Party Claim, and making personnel available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. No compromise or settlement of any Third-Party Claim may be effected by the Indemnifying Party without the Indemnified Party’s consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided that no such consent shall be required if (a) there is no finding or admission of any violation of Law by the Indemnified Party or of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party and no effect on any other claims that may be made against such Indemnified Party or its Affiliates, (b) the sole relief is monetary damages that are paid in full by the Indemnifying Party and (c) each Indemnified Party that is party to such Third-Party Claim is fully and unconditionally released from Liability with respect to such claim. No Indemnified Party shall settle or compromise any Third-Party Claim without the express prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided that it shall be reasonable for the Indemnifying Party to withhold any such consent if such settlement or compromise creates any Liability or obligation on the part of such Indemnifying Party or otherwise affects any claims that are then pending or threatened, or may be made, against such Indemnifying Party.

Section 11.07 Procedures for Inter-Party Claims. In the event that an Indemnified Party determines that it has a claim for Damages against an Indemnifying Party hereunder (other than as a result of a Third-Party Claim), the Indemnified Party shall promptly give written notice thereof to the Indemnifying Party, specifying the amount of such claim, the nature and basis of the alleged breach giving rise to such claim and all relevant facts and circumstances relating thereto. The Indemnified Party shall provide the Indemnifying Party with full access to its books and records during normal business hours and upon reasonable prior written notice for the purpose of allowing the Indemnifying Party a reasonable opportunity to verify any such claim for Damages and shall make its personnel available on a mutually convenient basis, and at no additional expense to the Indemnifying Party, to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. The Indemnifying Party shall notify the Indemnified Party within forty-five (45) days following its receipt of such notice and granting of such access if the Indemnifying Party disputes its Liability to the Indemnified Party under this Article XI. If the Indemnifying Party does not so notify the Indemnified Party, the claim specified by the Indemnified Party in such notice shall be conclusively deemed to be a Liability of the Indemnifying Party under this Article XI, and the Indemnifying Party shall pay the amount of such Liability to the Indemnified Party on demand or, in the case of any notice in which the amount of the claim (or any portion of the claim) is estimated, on such later date when the amount of such claim (or such portion of such claim) becomes finally determined. If the

Indemnifying Party has timely disputed its Liability with respect to such claim as provided above, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such dispute. Following the final determination of the amount of Damages to which the Indemnified Party is entitled (whether determined in accordance with this Section 11.07 or by arbitration), the Indemnifying Party shall pay such Damages to the Indemnified Party by wire transfer or certified check made payable to the order of the Indemnified Party.

Section 11.08 Mitigation; Insurance; Subrogation. Each Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts (determined without regard to any indemnification or escrow recovery rights, as applicable, of such Person hereunder (i.e., as if such Person had no such rights hereunder)) to mitigate any Damage for which such Indemnified Party seeks indemnification provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, no Indemnified Party shall be required to pursue, or otherwise take any legal actions related to, any third party collateral sources (other than any insurance policy (including the R&W Insurance Policy) or institute any legal proceedings against a third party in connection with such efforts. If any Damages sustained by an Indemnified Party may be covered by an insurance policy (including the R&W Insurance Policy) or an indemnification, contribution or similar obligation of another Person (other than an Affiliate of such Indemnified Party), the Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to collect such insurance proceeds or indemnity, contribution or similar payments. The amount of any Damages subject to indemnification under Section 11.02 (Indemnification by the Sellers) or Section 11.03 (Indemnification by Buyer) shall be reduced by the amounts recovered by the applicable Indemnified Party, as applicable, under applicable insurance policies (including the R&W Insurance Policy) or an indemnification, contribution or similar obligation of another Person (other than an Affiliate of such Indemnified Party) with respect to claims related to such Damages and if any Indemnified Party receives such insurance proceeds or indemnity, contribution or similar payments after the settlement of any indemnification claim under Section 11.02 (Indemnification by the Sellers) or Section 11.03 (Indemnification by Buyer), as applicable, such Indemnified Party shall refund to the Indemnifying Party the amount of such insurance proceeds or indemnity, contribution or similar payments, up to the amount received in connection with such indemnification claim. It is the intention of the Parties that no insurer or third party shall be entitled to any benefit or right it would not be entitled to receive in the absence of this paragraph. Each Party hereby waives, to the extent permitted under its applicable insurance policies, any subrogation rights that its insurer may have with respect to any indemnifiable Damages.

Section 11.09 Treatment of Indemnity Payments. Following the Closing, any payment made pursuant to this Article XI shall be treated by the Parties hereunder as an adjustment to the cash proceeds received by the Sellers in the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

ARTICLE XII
MISCELLANEOUS

Section 12.01 Sellers’ Representative.

(a) Each Quest Seller, by virtue of its execution and delivery of this Agreement, hereby irrevocably nominates, constitutes and appoints the Sellers’ Representative as the agent, agent for service of process and true and lawful attorney-in-fact of the Sellers, with full power of substitution, to act in the name, place and stead of such Seller with respect to this Agreement and the taking by the Sellers’ Representative of any and all actions and the making of any decisions required or permitted to be taken or made by the Sellers’ Representative under this Agreement including the exercise of the power to: (i) execute, deliver, acknowledge, certify and file (in the name of any or all of the Quest Sellers or otherwise) any and all documents, including the Escrow Agreement, and to take any and all actions that the Sellers’ Representative may, in its sole discretion, determine to be necessary, desirable or appropriate in connection with any matter covered in Section 2.06 (Post-Closing Adjustment) or any indemnification claim under

Article XI (Indemnification) (including negotiating, entering into compromises or settlements of and demanding arbitration with respect to any such matters covered in Section 2.06 (Post-Closing Adjustment) or any indemnification claim, as applicable); and (ii) give and receive notices and communications under this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement. The Sellers’ Representative hereby accepts its appointment as the Sellers’ Representative.

(d) The Sellers’ Representative may at any time designate a replacement Sellers’ Representative and each Quest Seller, by virtue of his, her or its execution and delivery of this Agreement, hereby consents to such replacement Sellers’ Representative. If the Sellers’ Representative shall dissolve or liquidate or otherwise become unable to fulfill its responsibilities as representative of the Quest Sellers, then the Quest Sellers shall, by “majority vote” within thirty (30) days after such dissolution, liquidation or other event, appoint a successor representative and, promptly thereafter, shall notify Buyer of the identity of such successor.

The Sellers’ Representative shall not be liable to any Quest Seller for any act done or omitted hereunder as the Sellers’ Representative while acting in good faith and in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment with respect to any matter arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of its duties hereunder (it being understood that any act done or omitted pursuant to the advice of counsel shall be conclusive evidence of such good faith). The Sellers’ Representative shall be entitled to be indemnified by the Quest Sellers, on a several but not joint basis, for any loss, Liability or expense incurred without gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Sellers’ Representative with respect to any matter arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of its duties hereunder.

The Sellers’ Representative shall keep reasonably detailed records of the reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of Sellers’ Representative for serving in such capacity and to the extent such costs and expenses do not exceed the Quest Sellers’ Holdback, then Sellers’ Representative shall return the remaining funds to the Quest Sellers (pro rata in accordance with their respective Percentage Allocations) within a reasonable period of time after which Sellers’ Representative believes in good faith it will no longer incur such fees and expenses.
