On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Closing, Sellers will sell, assign, transfer, convey and deliver to Purchaser, and Purchaser will purchase, acquire and accept from Sellers, all of the tangible and intangible assets of Sellers used or held for use in the Business, other than the Excluded Assets, including the assets of Sellers set forth on Schedule 1.1 (collectively, the “Purchased Assets”), free and clear of all Encumbrances.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is expressly understood and agreed that unless a Liability is expressly within the definition of Assumed Liabilities under this Section 1.3, neither Purchaser nor any of its Affiliates will assume, nor will any of them be liable for, such Liability.

Section 1.4 Electronic Transfer of Certain Assets. The Parties agree that, at the request of Purchaser, any of the Purchased Assets that can be transmitted to Purchaser electronically will be so delivered to Purchaser promptly following the Closing in a secure format and manner mutually agreeable to the Parties and will not be delivered to Purchaser on any tangible medium. After the Closing, Sellers will not directly or indirectly use any copies of such Purchased Assets under its custody or control except for (a) the purpose of verifying delivery of or re-delivering such Purchased Assets to Purchaser or (b) complying with an express provision of this Agreement or the Related Agreements. Upon the written request of Purchaser following the Closing, Sellers will return or destroy any such copies of the Purchased Assets using commercially reasonable means but, in any event, will not thereafter directly or indirectly permit or perform any recovery or restoration thereof, whether through forensics, archives, undeletion, or otherwise.

Section 1.5 Employee and Independent Contractor Matters.

(a) Sellers agree to use their reasonable commercial efforts to assist Purchaser in its efforts to employ any employees of Sellers and engage any independent contractors of Sellers, and the Parties acknowledge and agree that employees of Sellers may contract with Purchaser to provide services to Purchaser following the Closing. Any employees of Sellers who accept an offer of employment with Purchaser, execute all documents required by Purchaser to be executed in connection therewith and begin employment with or service to Purchaser are referred to herein collectively as the “Hired Service Providers.”

(b) Purchaser will have no obligation to offer employment to, and will have no Liability to, any employee or independent contractor of Sellers, including any employee who, on the Closing Date, is not actively employed by Sellers or is on job-protected leave, military service leave or layoff (whether or not with recall rights), or whose employment has been terminated (voluntarily or involuntarily) or who has retired on or prior to the Closing Date. Sellers will bear all responsibility for, and related costs associated with the termination of its employees, including complying with the federal Workers Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act (“WARN”) and similar state or local Laws. Sellers will not provide any notice to employees pursuant to WARN or similar state or local Laws without prior written approval by Purchaser.

(c) Prior to the Closing, Sellers will terminate, effective no later than as of the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Closing Date, all employees and independent contractors of Sellers who have accepted an offer of employment or engagement with Purchaser. Simultaneously with such termination, Sellers will pay each such terminated employee and each such terminated independent contractor all accrued wages, salaries, and fees, accrued vacation, COBRA benefits, accrued sick and personal time, if any, and all other amounts due from Sellers to such employees and independent contractors, and termination or severance pay in accordance with any contract or Law.

(d) Nothing contained in this Agreement, any Related Agreement or any other document contemplated hereby or thereby, will confer upon any Hired Service Provider or any other present or former employee of Sellers any rights or remedies of any nature or kind whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement, any Related Agreement or any other document contemplated hereby or thereby, including any right to employment or continued employment or to any compensation or benefits that may be provided, directly or indirectly, under any employee benefit plan, policy or arrangement of Purchaser, nor will anything contained in this Agreement, any Related Agreement or any other document contemplated hereby or thereby constitute a limitation on or restriction against the right of Purchaser to amend, modify or terminate any such plan, policy or arrangement or compensation, benefits or other terms or conditions of employment.

(e) Sellers and Purchaser agree that Sellers will be liable for all Liabilities of Sellers with respect to the employees and independent contractors of Sellers (including all Hired Service Providers) arising or accruing on or prior to the Closing Date and including any employment Taxes imposed with respect to any payments of compensation to employees and independent contractors arising in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and related to any COBRA benefits, regardless of whether arising on or before or as a result of the Closing, and Purchaser will be and become liable for all employment-related Liabilities of the Hired Service Providers and all Liabilities with respect to independent contractors, in each case, first arising after the Closing Date.

ARTICLE II.

(a) The aggregate purchase price for the Purchased Assets (the “Purchase Price”) will consist of the assumption by Purchaser of the Assumed Liabilities as set forth in Section 1.3 and the payment, in the form set forth herein, by Purchaser to Sellers or such other Persons as set forth herein, of an amount (the “Closing Purchase Price”) equal to (i) $3,500,000, minus (ii) the Holdback Consideration, plus (iii) $15,750 as reimbursement for security deposits on the Leased Real Property, plus or minus (iv) subject to Section 2.3, the Inventory Adjustment Amount.

Purchaser may submit any objections in writing to Sellers prior to the anticipated Closing and Sellers will cooperate in good faith with Purchaser to revise the Closing Purchase Price to reflect the mutual agreement of Sellers and Purchaser. Sellers will make their financial records reasonably available to Purchaser and its accountants and other representatives at any reasonable times during the review by Purchaser of the calculation of the Closing Purchase Price.

(b) Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of all of the conditions set forth in Section 3.2, at the Closing, Purchaser will pay or cause to be paid to Sellers by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account or accounts designated in writing by Sellers at least three (3) Business Days prior to such date an amount equal to (i) fifty-four point three percent (54.3%) multiplied by (ii) the Closing Purchase Price (the “Closing Cash Payment”). Such Closing Cash Payment will be distributed between the Sellers as follows: fifteen point eight percent (15.8%) of the Closing Cash Payment will be paid to BG3 and eighty-four point two percent (84.2%) of the Closing Cash Payment will be paid to Black Box.

(c) Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of all of the conditions set forth in Section 3.2, at the Closing, Purchaser will cause Parent to issue a number of shares of the common stock of Parent (the “Parent Common Stock”) to BG3 equal to (i) (A) forty-five point seven percent (45.7%) multiplied by (B) the Closing Purchase Price divided by (ii) the Per Share Price (the “Stock Consideration”).

(d) Within three (3) Business Days following the applicable Holdback Release Date, Purchaser will pay or cause to be paid to Black Box by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the bank account designated in writing by Black Box (which designation will occur at least three (3) Business Days prior to such date) an amount equal to (i) the portion of the Holdback Consideration payable on such applicable Holdback Release Date as set forth in Section 7.1(c) minus (ii) the amount, if any, of Holdback Consideration which was used to satisfy any adjustments or obligations pursuant to Article VII.

(e) On or prior to the Closing Date, Sellers will pay the amount of unpaid Transaction Expenses of Sellers by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Persons entitled thereto and provide evidence of such payments to Purchaser promptly thereafter.

Section 2.3 Inventory Target Amount; Inventory Count; Inventory Adjustment.

(a) On the Closing Date, Sellers shall deliver to Purchaser the Marijuana Inventory in an aggregate amount equal to sixty-five thousand dollars ($65,000.00), which is equal to the approximate wholesale value of two-weeks’ worth of Marijuana Inventory of Sellers (the “Inventory Target Amount”).

(b) On the calendar day immediately preceding the Closing Date, Purchaser shall commence, coordinate and take, in consultation and cooperation with Sellers, a physical count of all Marijuana Inventory in order to determine the estimated wholesale value for such Marijuana Inventory (the “Closing Date Inventory Amount”). The Marijuana Inventory count and valuation shall be consistent with past procedures and practices of the Business and commercially reasonable procedures sufficient to conduct a proper count and valuation of such Marijuana Inventory. Seller shall have the right to observe and participate in the verification of the count and valuation of such Marijuana Inventory.

(c) Prior to Closing, Purchaser shall provide to Sellers a written report setting forth the Closing Date Inventory Amount minus the Inventory Target Amount (the “Inventory Adjustment Amount”). If the Inventory Adjustment Amount is a positive number that exceeds six thousand five hundred dollars ($6,500.00), the Purchase Price shall be increased by an amount equal to the Inventory Adjustment Amount. If the Inventory Adjustment Amount is a negative number that is less than negative six thousand five hundred dollars ($6,500.00), the Purchase Price shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Inventory Adjustment Amount.

Section 2.4 Allocation of Purchase Price.

(a) Within one hundred twenty (120) days following the Closing, Purchaser will prepare and deliver to each Seller an allocation of the Closing Cash Payment, the Stock Consideration, and all other Taxable consideration among the Purchased Assets that Purchaser acquired from such Seller for all purposes (including Tax and financial accounting) (each, a “Purchase Price Allocation Schedule”), with such allocation to be in

accordance with Section 1060 of the Code to the extent applicable thereto and filed on IRS Form 8594, as applicable, and the allocation principles set forth on Schedule 2.4 hereto (the “Allocation Principles”). Each Seller shall have a period of thirty (30) days after the delivery of a Purchase Price Allocation Schedule to present in writing to Purchaser notice of any objections that such Seller may have to the allocations set forth therein. Unless a Seller timely objects to the Purchase Price Allocation Schedule delivered to it, such Purchase Price Allocation Schedule shall be binding on the Parties, without further adjustment. If a Seller timely objects to the Purchase Price Allocation Schedule delivered to it, Purchaser shall consider in good faith all reasonable comments from such Seller; provided, that if after thirty (30) days, the Seller and Purchaser are unable to agree, then Purchaser and Sellers may, for any purpose, take inconsistent positions with respect to such Purchase Price Allocation Schedule, provided, that neither Purchaser nor Sellers shall take any position inconsistent with the Allocation Principles for any purpose. If a Seller does not object to the Purchase Price Allocation Schedule delivered to it, or Purchaser and a Seller are able to resolve any differences within the thirty (30) day period described above, the Parties agree to (a) prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, each of their respective Tax Returns on a basis consistent with such Purchase Price Allocation Schedule (as the same may be revised by the foregoing procedures) and (b) unless otherwise required by Law, take no position inconsistent with such Purchase Price Allocation Schedule (as the same may have been revised by the foregoing procedures) on any applicable Tax Return, in any Legal Proceeding before any Governmental Authority, in any report made for Tax, financial accounting, or any other purpose. Each Party shall provide the other with written notice of any audit or other Legal Proceeding related to the allocation of the Purchase Price and other Taxable consideration as reported under this Section 2.4. Purchaser and Sellers shall cooperate in good faith to update each Purchase Price Allocation Schedule to reflect any adjustments to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes (including any recovery from the Holdback Consideration as contemplated in Section 7.7) in accordance with the Allocation Principles.

(b) Each Seller and Equityholder acknowledges and agrees that the amount of the Purchase Price and other Taxable consideration allocated to the non-competition and non-solicitation covenants set forth in Section 6.10 does not represent liquidated damages for a breach of the provisions of such covenants. Sellers hereby waive and agree not to assert any claim or defense that the amount of the Purchase Price allocated to the non-competition and non-solicitation covenants set forth in Section 6.10 represents: (i) liquidated damages; (ii) an adequate damages remedy for breach of such covenants that would prevent or preclude the entry of an order for specific performance or injunctive or other equitable relief in accordance with the respective provisions of such covenants; or (iii) inadequate consideration to support enforcement of the provisions of such covenants.

Section 2.5 Tax Withholding. Purchaser shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any payment otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement the amounts required to be deducted and withheld under the Code, or any provision of applicable state, local or foreign Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld, such amounts will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to Sellers or such other Person in respect of whom such withholding was made.

Section 2.6 Legend. Sellers acknowledge and agree that the certificates representing the Stock Consideration may contain a legend in form acceptable to Purchaser, including the following legend:

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OR OTHER JURISDICTION, AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT (1) PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR (2) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, IN EACH CASE IN ACCORDANCE WITH ALL APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND THE SECURITIES LAWS OF OTHER JURISDICTIONS, AND IN THE CASE OF A TRANSACTION EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION, UNLESS THE COMPANY HAS RECEIVED AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO IT THAT SUCH TRANSACTION DOES NOT REQUIRE REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND SUCH OTHER APPLICABLE LAWS.

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY ARE SUBJECT TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF A LOCK UP PROVISION BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND THE STOCKHOLDER LISTED ON THE FACE HEREOF. A COPY OF SUCH AGREEMENT IS ON FILE AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE COMPANY AND WILL BE PROVIDED TO THE HOLDER HEREOF UPON REQUEST. NO TRANSFER OF SUCH SECURITIES WILL BE MADE ON THE BOOKS OF THE COMPANY UNLESS ACCOMPANIED BY EVIDENCE OF COMPLIANCE WITH THE TERMS OF SUCH LOCK UP PROVISION.

From and after the Closing, Sellers and the Equityholder will, and will instruct their respective Affiliates, employees, officers, directors, managers, members, partners, equityholders, advisors, representatives and agents to, (a) treat and hold as confidential and proprietary all information concerning the Purchased Assets, the Assumed Liabilities, the Business, Purchaser and its Affiliates and the business and affairs of Purchaser that is not generally available to the public as of the Closing (provided, that any information generally available to the public as a result of Sellers’ or Equityholder’s breach of this Section 6.2 or the Confidentiality Agreement will not be deemed to be generally available to the public hereunder) (collectively, the “Purchaser Confidential Information”), (b) refrain from using any Purchaser Confidential Information except as otherwise expressly contemplated by this Agreement and (c) promptly deliver to Purchaser or destroy, at the election of Purchaser, all tangible embodiments (and all copies) of any Purchaser Confidential Information that are in the possession or under the reasonable control of Seller, any Equityholder or any of their respective Affiliates, employees, officers, directors, managers, members, partners, equityholders, advisors, representatives or agents. In the event that Sellers or any Equityholder (or any of their respective Affiliates, employees, officers, directors, managers, members, partners, equityholders, advisors, representatives and agents) is requested or required (pursuant to written or oral question or request for information or documents in any Legal Proceeding, interrogatory, subpoena, civil investigative demand, or similar process) to disclose any Purchaser Confidential Information, such Person will promptly notify Purchaser of the request or requirement so that Purchaser may seek an appropriate protective order or waive compliance with the provisions of this Section 6.2. If, in the absence of a protective order or the receipt of a waiver hereunder, Sellers or Equityholder (or such other Person) is, on the advice of counsel, compelled to disclose any Purchaser Confidential Information to any tribunal, Sellers or Equityholder (or such other Person), as applicable, may disclose that portion of Purchaser Confidential Information that is required to be disclosed to the tribunal; provided, that the disclosing Person will use such Person’s reasonable commercial efforts to obtain, at the reasonable request of Purchaser, an order or other assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such portion of Purchaser Confidential Information required to be disclosed as Purchaser will designate. The existence and terms of this Agreement and the Related Agreements will be deemed Purchaser Confidential Information.

Section 6.3 Customer and Supplier Inquiries. From and after the Closing, Sellers will refer to Purchaser all customer, supplier, employee or other inquiries or correspondence relating to the Purchased Assets, the Assumed Liabilities or the conduct or operations of the Business after the Closing. Sellers will promptly remit to Purchaser all payments and invoices received after the Closing that relate to the Purchased Assets, the Assumed Liabilities or, other than with respect to the Excluded Assets or the Excluded Liabilities, the conduct or operations of the Business. Purchaser will have the right and authority to collect for its own account all items that are included in the Purchased Assets and to endorse with the name of such Seller any checks or drafts received with respect to any such other items.

Section 6.4 Tax Matters.

(a) Purchaser and Sellers will each timely prepare and file such Tax Returns as may be, respectively, required of them under applicable Law in connection with all excise, sales, use, value added, transfer, stamp, documentary, filing, recordation or other similar Taxes incurred in connection with or as a result of the sale and transfer of the Purchased Assets and the Assumed Liabilities hereunder (“Transfer Taxes”) in accordance with the form of the transaction contemplated hereunder or as may otherwise be required by any Governmental Authority (each other Party will cooperate with respect thereto as necessary); provided, that the cost of all such Transfer Taxes will be borne by Sellers.

(b) Sellers shall prepare or cause to be prepared (i) all Tax Returns of or relating to either Seller, the Business and the Purchased Assets, for all Pre-Closing Tax Periods, whenever due, and (ii) all income, gross receipts, and similar Tax Returns of each Seller (each such Tax Return prepared by either Seller, a “Seller Return”). Each Seller Return shall be prepared in accordance with the applicable Seller’s and Equityholder’s past practices, to the extent permitted by applicable Law. Sellers shall deliver each Seller Return to Purchaser at least fifteen (15) days prior to the due date for such Seller Return for Purchaser’s review, comment and approval. If Purchaser approves any Seller Return as initially prepared by Sellers, then Sellers shall file such Seller Return as so prepared. If Purchaser requests any revisions to any Seller Return, Sellers or the Equityholder, as applicable, shall make all revisions to such Seller Return as are reasonably requested by Purchaser and shall file such Seller Return. Purchaser shall prepare and file all Tax Returns with respect to the Business and the Purchased Assets other than those Tax Returns described in the previous sentence, including Tax Returns for any Straddle Periods. With respect to Tax Returns pertaining to any Straddle Period, Sellers shall, no later than five Business Days after Purchaser notifies the Sellers of the amount of Taxes that are due and payable with such Tax Returns and which are attributable to that portion of such Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date (as determined pursuant to Section 6.4(c) below), pay such amount to Purchaser. Each Seller and the Equityholder will be jointly and severally liable for all Taxes imposed on or with respect to the Purchased Assets, the Business, and the operations that are allocable to Pre-Closing Tax Periods, determined in accordance with Section 6.4(c).

(c) For purposes of this Agreement, with respect to any Straddle Period (i) any property or similar ad valorem Taxes attributable to the Purchased Assets or Business that are payable for a Straddle Period will be pro-rated, and such Taxes will be allocated between Sellers and Purchaser based upon the total 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 the entire taxable period, with each Seller responsible for those allocable to the period prior to and including the Closing Date and Purchaser responsible for those allocable to the period after the Closing Date, and (ii) any other Taxes relating to the Purchased Assets or Business (other than property and ad valorem Taxes) for a Straddle Period shall be computed and allocated between Sellers and Purchaser as if such Taxable year or period ended as of the close of business on the Closing Date.

(d) Cooperation on Tax Matters.

(i) Each Party shall, and each Party shall cause its respective Affiliates and representatives to, cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by another Party, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns and any official inquiry, audit, examination, litigation or other Legal Proceeding with respect to Taxes for any Straddle Period or any Pre-Closing Tax Period. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon another Party’s request) the provision of records and information reasonably relevant to any such audit, assessment, reassessment, litigation, or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. Each Party shall (A) retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to Sellers, the Business, and the Purchased Assets relating to any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until expiration of the applicable statute of limitations of the respective Taxable periods, and abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any Governmental Authority, and (B) give each other Party reasonable written notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any such books and records and abide by the reasonable requests of such other Party with respect thereto.

(ii) Each Party further agrees, upon the written request of another Party, to use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any Governmental Authority or any other Person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any Tax that could be imposed (including with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby).

(iii) For any period for which either Seller is taxable as a partnership for U.S. federal, state, local, or non-U.S. purposes and has not elected and does not elect under Section 6221(b) of the Code (or the state, local or non-U.S. equivalent thereof) to be excluded from the application of the centralized partnership audit regime of Subchapter C of Chapter 63 of Chapter 1 of Subtitle A of the Code (or the state, local or non-U.S. analogue thereof), in the event that either Seller receives a notice of final partnership adjustment pursuant to Section 6225 of the Code with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period, Sellers and the Equityholder agree to cause such Seller’s partnership representative (as defined in Section 6223 of the Code) designated by such Seller or selected by the Internal Revenue Service to make a timely and valid “push-out” election pursuant to Section 6226 of the Code, and to take any such equivalent action as applicable state, local, or non-U.S. Law may provide.

(e) Tax Claims. Sellers and the Equityholder shall have the right to control the conduct of any Tax audits, Tax disputes or other Claim relating to Taxes (a “Tax Claim”), which relates exclusively to any Seller Return; provided, that in the case of any Tax Claim relating to a Seller Return that could give rise to a liability of, or otherwise affect the Taxes or calculation of Taxes of, Purchaser or its Affiliates under this Agreement or otherwise, Purchaser may participate in such Tax Claim at Purchaser’s expense, and neither Seller nor Equityholder shall settle, compromise, or enter into any agreement that represents a final determination of the Tax Claim matter or any portion thereof without Purchaser’s advance written consent. Purchaser shall have the right to control the conduct of any Tax Claim other than those that may be controlled by Sellers and the Equityholder pursuant to the foregoing sentence of this Section 6.4(e).

(f) Tax-Sharing Agreements. Prior to the Closing, Sellers shall terminate any Tax sharing agreement, Tax indemnification agreement, or Tax allocation agreement or similar agreement or arrangement, and any powers of attorney with respect to Taxes or other similar agreements with respect to or involving either Seller, the Business, or the Purchased Assets, such that, after the Closing Date, neither Purchaser nor the Internal Revenue Service or other Governmental Authority shall be bound thereby and Purchaser shall have no liability thereunder.

Section 6.5 Use of the Drift Name. Within five (5) Business Days after the Closing Date, each Seller will cease to use the word “Drift” and any derivation thereof and logo associated therewith in all respects, including, without limitation, in any connection with any signage, correspondence (including emails and stationary), bank accounts or otherwise.

Section 6.6 COBRA. At all times before and after the Closing, Seller and the selling group (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 54.4980B-9, Q&A-3(a)) of which it is a part (the “Selling Group”) will cooperate with Purchaser as necessary (and will promptly provide such information as is necessary or as is reasonably requested by Purchaser) to enable Purchaser to provide continuation coverage under COBRA to all individuals who are (or will be) “M&A qualified beneficiaries” as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 54.4980B 9, Q&A 4(a), with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (each such individual, an “M&A Qualified Beneficiary”), to the extent Purchaser determines it or any of its Affiliates is required by COBRA to do so. By way of example, and not limitation, Sellers and each member of the Selling Group shall provide Purchaser with the following information for each M&A Qualified Beneficiary as far in advance of the occurrence of such M&A Qualified Beneficiary’s qualifying event as possible and, in any event, no later than the day after the occurrence of such qualifying event: (A) the last known address for each such individual, (B) the type of “qualifying

event” (as defined in Section 4980B(f)(3) of the Code) for each such individual and the date on which each such qualifying event occurred or will occur, (C) the date on which notice of such qualifying event was provided to each such individual (as required by Section 4980B(f)(6)(D) of the Code), (D) the date on which each such individual lost or will lose coverage under Sellers’ group health plans as a result of such qualifying event (absent an election to continue coverage under COBRA), (E) the date on which each such individual elected continuation coverage under Sellers’ group health plans pursuant to COBRA (or, with respect to any such individual who has not yet elected such continuation coverage, the date on which such individual’s election period will expire), (F) a description of the continuation coverage elected (or entitled to be elected) by each such individual, and (G) all other information that may be necessary for Purchaser to provide COBRA continuation coverage under Purchaser’s group health plans to such individuals solely in the event that and to the extent that Purchaser is required by Law to provide such COBRA coverage. Each Seller or another member of the Selling Group shall promptly notify Purchaser if such Seller and the members of the Selling Group terminate all of their group health plans. If Purchaser determines that it or any of its Affiliates is obligated to provide continuation coverage under COBRA to the M&A Qualified Beneficiaries, each Seller shall reimburse, on a joint and several basis, Purchaser and its Affiliates for any and all costs, expenses and Liabilities that Purchaser and its Affiliates incur in providing such coverage to the M&A Qualified Beneficiaries, which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall constitute Excluded Liabilities under this Agreement.

Section 6.7 Release of Claims. Effective as of the Closing, except with respect to any claim to enforce the terms of or any breach of this Agreement or any Related Agreement (including the right to receive payment under this Agreement) (collectively, the “Unreleased Claims”), Equityholder, on behalf of himself and his predecessors, successors, assigns, next-of-kin, representatives, administrators, executors, trusts, agents and any other Person claiming by, through or under any of the foregoing (collectively, the “Releasors”), unconditionally and irrevocably waives, releases and forever discharges Purchaser and each of its Affiliates and each of their respective officers, managers, directors, equityholders, financing sources, advisors, consultants and representatives and any predecessors, successors or assigns of any of the foregoing (each, a “Released Person”), from any past, present or future dispute, claim, controversy, demand, right, obligation, Liability, action or cause of action of any kind or nature, whether unknown, unsuspected or undisclosed, related to any matters, causes, conditions, acts, conduct, claims, circumstances or events arising out of or related to the Business (collectively, the “Released Liabilities”), and neither Equityholder nor any other Releasor will seek to recover any amounts in connection therewith or thereunder from any Released Person. Equityholder represents on his own behalf and on behalf of the other Releasors that none of the Releasors has asserted any claim against any Released Person for indemnification or otherwise and that none of the Releasors is aware of any claim by any of the Releasors (nor of any fact, circumstance or event that forms or would form the basis for any such claim) other than Unreleased Claims or claims that are waived, released and forever discharged under this Section 6.7. Equityholder is aware that he and any of the other Releasors may hereafter discover claims or facts in addition to or different from those that Equityholder or any of the other Releasors now know or believe to be true with respect to the matters released herein, but that, except for the Unreleased Claims, it is the intention of Equityholder and the other Releasors to fully and finally release all Released Liabilities and Liabilities of any nature related thereto that do exist, may exist or heretofore have existed. Equityholder irrevocably covenants, and irrevocably covenants to cause the other Releasors, to refrain from, directly or indirectly, asserting any claim or demand, or commencing, instituting or causing to be commenced, any Legal Proceeding of any kind against any Released Person, based upon any matter released under this Section 6.7 (which expressly exclude the Unreleased Claims). Equityholder represents and warrants on his own behalf and on behalf of the other Releasors to the Released Persons that neither Equityholder nor any of the other Releasors has assigned or transferred or purported to assign or transfer to any Person all or any portion of, or any interest in any Released Liability or any Legal Proceeding or Liability that is or that purports to be released or discharged under this Section 6.7. Without in any way limiting any of the rights and remedies otherwise available to any Released Person, Equityholder on his own behalf and on behalf of the other Releasors, will indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Released Person from and against all Liabilities, whether or not involving third party claims, directly or indirectly caused by, relating to, arising out of, resulting from, attributable to, or in any way incidental to the occurrence of the assertion by or on Equityholder’s own behalf or on behalf of any of the other Releasors of any claim or other matter purported to be released under this Section 6.7.

Section 6.10 Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation.

(a) Sellers and Equityholder acknowledge and agree that (i) such Person has received confidential and proprietary information regarding Sellers and the Business, including trade secrets; (ii) Purchaser would suffer irreparable harm if Sellers or Equityholder were to divulge such confidential and proprietary information to those in competition with Purchaser or the Business, or to use such knowledge, information and business acumen in competition with Purchaser or the Business; (iii) the goodwill of Sellers acquired through the acquisition of the Purchased Assets would be substantially diminished if, at any time during the Restricted Period, Sellers or the Equityholder were to compete with Purchaser; (iv) Sellers and Equityholder, as applicable, has determined that it is in his, her or its best interests and to his, her or its financial benefit (through his, her or its direct or indirect ownership of Sellers) to execute this Agreement and agree to enter into the restrictions set forth in this Section 6.10, given the significant and direct or indirect financial benefit that will be realized by Sellers or Equityholder, as applicable, as a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby; and (v) Purchaser is relying on the covenants and obligations of Sellers and the Equityholder set forth in this Section 6.10 in connection with, and as a condition to Purchaser’s execution and delivery of, this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(b) For a period of three (3) years after the Closing Date (the “Restricted Period”):

(i) Except as otherwise set forth below, none of Sellers or Equityholder shall, directly or indirectly, and shall cause its Affiliates, employees, officers, directors, managers, members, partners and equityholders not to engage or invest in, own, manage, operate, finance, control or participate in the ownership, management, operation, financing or control of, be retained by, or render services or advice or other aid to, or guarantee any obligation of, any Person engaged in or planning to become engaged in any retail marijuana dispensary in the Restricted Area (other than on behalf of Purchaser).

(iii) After the Closing Date, (A) none of Sellers or Equityholder shall make, and shall assure that none of his, her or its Affiliates, employees, officers, directors, managers, members, partners and equityholders make, any disparaging statements, either orally or in writing, about Purchaser or any of the names, businesses (including the Business), shareholders, directors, officers, employees, or agents of Purchaser and (B) Purchaser shall not make, and shall direct its Affiliates and representatives not to make, any disparaging statements, either orally or in writing, about Sellers or Equityholder or any of the names, businesses, shareholders, directors, officers, employees, or agents of Sellers or Equityholder.

(c) If a final Order from a Governmental Authority or a court or tribunal of competent jurisdiction determines that any provision of this Section 6.10 is invalid or unenforceable, the Parties agree that the court or tribunal will have the power to reduce the scope, duration, or geographic area of the provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable provision with a provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable provision. This Section 6.10 will be enforceable as so modified after the expiration of the time within which the Order may be appealed. The Parties acknowledge and agree that this Section 6.10 is reasonable and necessary to protect and preserve legitimate business interests and to prevent an unfair advantage from being conferred upon any Party.

(d) If either Seller or any Equityholder, or their Affiliates or equityholders, officers, directors, employees, representatives violate the covenants set forth in this Section 6.10, then notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the Restricted Period shall be extended with respect to each Seller or Equityholder, as applicable, for a period of time equal to the period that such violation shall exist and be continuing.

(e) Each Seller and the Equityholder acknowledge and agree that any breach of this Section 6.10 will result in serious and irreparable injury. Therefore, each Seller and the Equityholder acknowledge and agree that, in the event of a breach, Purchaser shall be entitled, in addition to any other remedy at law or in equity to which it may be entitled, to equitable relief against each Seller or the Equityholder, as applicable, including a temporary restraining order and preliminary and permanent injunctions to restrain such Persons from such breach and to compel compliance with the obligations hereunder, and each Seller and the Equityholder waive the posting of a bond or undertaking as a condition to such relief.

(ii) In the event that the Claiming Party does not elect to assume the defense of any Third-Party Claim, (A) the Responding Party will assume and diligently conduct the defense of the Third-Party Claim and will keep the Claiming Party reasonably informed of the status of the Third-Party Claim, (B) the Claiming Party may retain separate co-counsel at its sole cost and expense and participate in the defense of the Third-Party Claim (except that the Responding Party will be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of the Claiming Party’s counsel (but not more than one law firm per jurisdiction) if the Claiming Party reasonably determines that counsel for the Responding Party has a conflict of interest or that there may be one or more defenses available to the Claiming Party that are not available to the Responding Party) and (C) the Responding Party will not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Claiming Party (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) unless the judgment or proposed settlement involves only the payment of money damages by the Responding Party, does not impose an injunction or other equitable relief upon the Claiming Party or impose any future limitations of the Claiming Party’s business or operations, and includes, as an unconditional term thereof, the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to the Claiming Party of a release (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Claiming Party) from all Liability in respect of such Third-Party Claim. If the Responding Party fails to defend such Third-Party Claim as provided above, the Claiming Party may pay, settle, compromise and defend such Third-Party Claim and will be entitled to indemnification hereunder for any Damages based upon, arising from or relating to such Third-Party Claim and its defense thereof, including fees and disbursements of its counsel, experts and other agents and all amounts paid in settlement thereof or as a result of any judgment related thereto.

(b) Extended Survival. Notwithstanding Section 7.3(a):

(i) the Fundamental Representations (or any inaccuracy of the Closing Certificate of Sellers or Equityholder Closing Certificate with respect to the Fundamental Representations) and all representations and warranties contained in any Related Agreement (other than the Closing Certificate of Sellers or Equityholder Closing Certificate), subject to any applicable limitation expressly stated herein or such Related Agreement, will survive the Closing and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby until, and will terminate at, 11:59 p.m., Mountain Time, on the later of the date that is the six-year anniversary of the Closing Date and the date of expiration of the last applicable statute of limitation applicable to the underlying claim, and none of Seller, Equityholder, Purchaser or Parent will have any obligation to provide indemnification pursuant to Section 7.1(b)(i) or Section 7.1(d)(i), as applicable, for any breach or inaccuracy, or allegation by any third party which, if true, would be a breach or inaccuracy of any such representation or warranty unless a Claim with respect thereto is asserted on or prior to such time;

(d) Enforcement of Survival Period. It is the express intent of the Parties that, if the applicable survival period for an item as contemplated by this Section 7.3 (the “Applicable Survival Period”) is longer than the statute of limitations that would otherwise have been applicable to such item, then, by contract, the applicable statute of limitations with respect to such item will be increased to the extended survival period set forth in this Section 7.3. The Parties further acknowledge that the Applicable Survival Periods set forth in this Section 7.3 for the assertion of claims under this Agreement are the result of an arm’s-length negotiation among the Parties and that the Parties intend for the time periods to be enforced as agreed by the Parties.

Section 7.4 Limitations.

(a) Threshold. Except as provided in Section 7.4(b), the Claiming Party will not be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 7.1(b)(i) or Section 7.1(d)(i), as applicable, unless and until the aggregate amount of all Damages of the Claiming Party pursuant to Section 7.1(b)(i) or Section 7.1(d)(i) exceeds $50,000 (the “Threshold”); and if the Damages of the Claiming Party pursuant to Section 7.1(b)(i) or Section 7.1(d)(i), as applicable, exceed the Threshold, then Sellers and the Equityholder, or Purchaser and Parent, as applicable, will be obligated for all Damages pursuant to Section 7.1(b)(i) or Section 7.1(d)(i), as applicable, related to such Claim (subject to the other express limitations set forth in this Article VII).

(b) Exceptions. The limitations set forth in Section 7.4(a) will not apply to or otherwise affect the Purchaser Indemnified Persons’ ability to make Claims or recover Damages with respect to Claims based on or for (i) a breach or inaccuracy or allegation by any third party which, if true, would be a breach or inaccuracy, of any Fundamental Representation (or any inaccuracy of the Closing Certificate of Sellers or Equityholder Closing Certificate with respect to the same), (ii) fraud, knowing or intentional misrepresentation or breach or willful misconduct, or, for the avoidance of doubt, (iii) indemnification under Section 7.1(b)(ii), Section 7.1(b)(iii), Section 7.1(b)(iv) or Section 7.1(b)(v).

(iii) The limitations set forth in Section 7.4(c) will not apply to or otherwise affect the Purchaser Indemnified Persons’ ability to make Claims or recover Damages with respect to Claims for fraud, knowing or intentional misrepresentation or breach or willful misconduct, for which Sellers’ and the Equityholder’s obligations to provide indemnification will be the full extent of any such Damages.

(d) Other Recovery. All Damages will be net of any amounts actually recovered by theClaiming Party under insurance policies or other sources of indemnification with respect to such Damages (net of expenses incurred in connection with such recovery or any related premium adjustments); provided, that no Claiming Party will have any obligation to seek to recover insurance proceeds in connection with making an indemnification claim under this Article VII.

Section 7.5 Materiality Qualifiers. For purposes of calculating the amount of Damages arising out of or relating to any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty in Section 4.1 or Section 4.2, and the determination of whether a breach has occurred, any Materiality Qualifiers in such representation or warranty will be disregarded.

Section 7.6 Exclusive Remedy; Rights to Specific Performance.

(a) With regard to any Claims for monetary Damages related to any breach or inaccuracy, or allegation by any third party which, if true, would be a breach or inaccuracy, of the representations and warranties in this Agreement, the Claiming Party’s right to indemnification under this Article VII will be the Claiming Party’s exclusive remedy for any such Claims (other than for Claims based on or for fraud, knowing or intentional misrepresentation, breach or willful misconduct) and the Claiming Party will not be entitled to any other monetary remedy with regard thereto.

(b) The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed by the Parties in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. Accordingly, a Party will be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions, without the posting of any bond, to prevent breaches of this Agreement by another Party and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, in addition to any other remedy to which such Party is entitled at law or in equity, but subject to the express limitations set forth in this Article VII.

Section 7.7 Recourse. If and to the extent that any Claiming Party is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement (after giving effect to the limitations on indemnification set forth in this Article VII), each such Claiming Party will have the option of recouping all or any portion of any Damages to which such Claiming Party is entitled by directing cash payment of monetary Damages from Sellers, the Equityholder or Purchaser, as applicable; provided, that Purchaser may instead elect to offset such Damages from the Holdback Consideration. Such remedies are not exclusive of any other remedies the Claiming Party may exercise at law or in equity to satisfy Sellers’ and the Equityholder’s, or Purchaser, as applicable, indemnification obligations hereunder.

Section 7.8 Knowledge and Investigation. All representations, warranties, covenants, obligations, agreements and indemnities of Sellers and the Equityholder contained in this Agreement and in the Related Agreements will be deemed material and relied upon by the Purchaser Indemnified Persons, regardless of any knowledge or investigation or any representation made by any Purchaser Indemnified Person or any of their representatives, and none will be waived by any failure to pursue any action or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereunder.

Section 7.9 Other Factors Not Limiting. No representation, warranty, covenant, obligation or agreement contained herein will limit the generality or applicability of any other representation, warranty, covenant, obligation or agreement. The terms of this Article VII will be enforceable regardless of whether Liability is based on past, present or future acts, claims or legal requirements and regardless of any sole, concurrent, contributory, comparative or similar negligence, or of any sole, concurrent, strict or similar Liability, of any of the Purchaser Indemnified Persons.

Section 7.12 Effect of Officer’s Certificates. For the avoidance of doubt, any written certification by a Person (or any officer thereof) of the accuracy of any representation or warranty (or of any other matter), including the Closing Certificate of Sellers, Equityholder Closing Certificate and any other certification contemplated in Section 3.2, will be deemed to constitute the making or re-making of such representation or warranty by such Person (or a representation or warranty regarding such other matter) at the time of such certification in the manner and to the extent stated in such certification, including for purposes of Section 7.1(b).

Section 7.13 Maximum Contribution. If and to the extent any provision of this Article VII is unenforceable for any reason, Sellers and Equityholder hereby agree to make the maximum contribution that is permissible under Law to the payment and satisfaction of any Damages for which indemnification is provided for in this Article VII (but subject to all limitations set forth in this Article VII applicable thereto, aggregating Damages for which contribution may be made under this Section 7.13 with Damages for which indemnification may be made under Section 7.1(b) for purposes of such limitations as if they referred to contribution obligations in addition to indemnification obligations).

Section 7.14 References to “Indemnification Obligations”. For purposes of this Article VII and any other provision of this Agreement, any reference to the “indemnification obligations” of Sellers, the Equityholder, Purchaser or Parent under this Article VII or words of like import, will be deemed to refer to all of the obligations of Sellers, the Equityholder, Purchaser and Parent under Section 7.1(b) or Section 7.1(d), as applicable, including the obligations to indemnify, defend, reimburse, hold harmless and pay.

Section 8.2 Effect of Termination.
