TERMINATION

SECTION 12.1 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing:

(a) by the mutual written consent of the Purchaser and the Sellers;

(b) by the Purchaser upon written notice in the event of a material breach of any covenant or agreement to be performed or complied with by the Sellers, or in the event of a material breach of any representation or warranties of the Sellers, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any of the Acquisition Documents, which breach would result in a condition to Closing set forth in Article IX hereof becoming incapable of fulfillment or cure (which condition has not been waived by the Purchaser in writing) prior to the Drop Dead Date;

(c) by the Sellers upon written notice in the event of a material breach of any covenant or agreement to be performed or complied with by the Purchaser, or in the event of a material breach of any representation or warranties of the Purchaser, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any of the Acquisition Documents, which breach would result in a condition to Closing set forth in Article X hereof becoming incapable of fulfillment or cure (which condition has not been waived by the Sellers in writing) prior to the Drop Dead Date;

(d) by either the Purchaser or the Sellers if any Governmental Authority having competent jurisdiction shall have issued a final, non-appealable order, decree, ruling or injunction (other than a temporary restraining order), or taken any other action restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other Acquisition Documents; provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 12.1(d) shall not be available to any party who shall not have complied with its obligations, if any, under Articles VI, VII or VIII, as the case may be, to avoid the entry of such order, decree, ruling or injunction; and

party whose failure to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement shall have been the cause of, or shall have resulted in, the failure of the Closing to occur on or prior to such date (for purposes of this subsection (e) the failure or refusal by any party to provide any waiver that under the terms hereof may be given or withheld in such party’s discretion shall not be deemed a failure to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement).

SECTION 12.2 Effect of Termination.

(a) In the event of the termination of this Agreement under Section 12.1, except with respect to this Section 12.2, Section 13.1, Section 13.2, Section 13.3, Section 13.4 and Sections 13.7 through 13.12 hereof, (i) this Agreement shall forthwith become void, and (ii) subject to the provisions of Section 12.2(b) below, there shall be no liability on the part of the Sellers, the Purchaser or any of their respective Representatives.

ARTICLE XIII
MISCELLANEOUS

SECTION 13.1 Public Announcements. Other than oral statements made in the Bankruptcy Court, the Purchaser and the Sellers shall consult with each other before issuing any press release or making any public statement or other public communication with respect to this Agreement or the Proposed Transaction (including any written statements made in the Bankruptcy Court or in pleadings filed therein relating to this Agreement or the Proposed Transaction). The Purchaser and the Sellers shall not issue any such press release or make any such public statement or public communication without the prior written consent of the other party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, however, that a party may, with the prior consent of the other party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), issue such press release or make such public statement as may, upon the advice of counsel, be required by applicable Law, any Governmental Authority with competent jurisdiction or any listing agreement with any national securities exchange, so long as the other party is given an opportunity to review and comment on any such press release or public statement. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, the Sellers or the Purchaser may disclose the existence, terms and conditions and a copy of this Agreement or any other Acquisition Document to the Bankruptcy Court, to any Representative of the Sellers or the Purchaser and to other Persons as permitted by Section 6.2 hereof.

SECTION 13.2 Amendment; Waiver. Neither this Agreement, nor any of the terms or provisions hereof, may be amended, modified, supplemented or waived except by a written instrument signed by all of the parties hereto (or, in the case of a waiver, by the party granting such waiver). No waiver of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to be or shall constitute a waiver of any other term or provision hereof (whether or not

similar), nor shall such waiver constitute a continuing waiver. No failure of a party hereto to insist upon strict compliance by another party hereto with any obligation, covenant, agreement or condition contained in this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other failure. Whenever this Agreement requires or permits consent by or on behalf of a party hereto, such consent shall be given in a manner consistent with the requirements for a waiver of compliance as set forth in this Section 13.2.

SECTION 13.3 No Survival of Representations and Warranties. The representations and warranties of the Sellers set forth in Article IV hereof and the Purchaser set forth in Article V hereof shall not survive the Closing.

SECTION 13.6 Assignment This Agreement and all of the terms and provisions hereof shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Prior to the Effective Time, neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder may be assigned by the Sellers or the Purchaser; provided the Purchaser may assign any of its rights, interests or obligations to any of its Affiliates, so long as the Purchaser remains the primary obligor hereunder and so long as Guarantor remains obligated under Section 13.13 with respect to such assignee. Any assignment made in contravention of the terms of this Section 13.6 shall be void ab initio.

SECTION 13.7 Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction.

(a) This Agreement and the legal relations among the parties hereto shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with, the laws of the State of Illinois applicable to agreements made and to be performed entirely within such State.

(b) Until the entry of an order either closing or dismissing the Bankruptcy Case, each party hereto (i) irrevocably elects as the sole judicial forum for the adjudication of any matters arising under or in connection with the Agreement, and consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of, the Bankruptcy Court; (ii) expressly waives any defense or objection to jurisdiction or venue based on the doctrine of forum non-conveniens; and (iii) stipulates that the Bankruptcy Court shall have in personam jurisdiction and venue over such party.

(c) After the entry of an order either closing or dismissing the Bankruptcy Case, each party to this Agreement hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of any Illinois state or federal court sitting or located in Xxxx County, Illinois (an “Illinois Court”) in any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Acquisition Documents, and each such party hereby irrevocably agrees that all claims in respect of such Action shall be heard and determined in such Illinois Court. Each party, to the extent permitted by applicable Laws, hereby expressly waives any defense or objection to jurisdiction or venue based on the doctrine of forum non conveniens, and stipulates that any Illinois Court shall have in personam jurisdiction and venue over such party for the purpose of litigating any dispute or controversy between the parties arising out of or related to this Agreement or the other Acquisition Documents. In the event any party shall commence or maintain any Action arising out of or related to this Agreement in a forum other than an Illinois Court, the other party shall be entitled to request the dismissal or stay of such Action, and each such party stipulates for itself that such Action shall be dismissed or stayed. To the extent that any party to this Agreement has or hereafter may acquire any immunity from jurisdiction of any Illinois Court or from any legal process (whether through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution or otherwise) with respect to itself or its property, each such party hereby irrevocably waives such immunity.

(d) After the entry of an order either closing or dismissing the Bankruptcy Case, each party irrevocably consents to the service of process of any of the Illinois Courts in any such Action by any means permitted by the rules applicable in such Illinois Court including, if permissible, personal delivery of the copies thereof or by the mailing of the copies thereof by certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, to it as its address specified in accordance with Section 13.5 above, such service to become effective upon the earlier of (i) the date ten (10) calendar days after such mailing or (ii) any earlier date permitted by applicable Law.

SECTION 13.8 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER ACQUISITION DOCUMENTS. EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS

AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER ACQUISITION AGREEMENTS, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 13.8.

SECTION 13.9 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the other Acquisition Documents and the Non-Disclosure Agreement embody the entire agreement and understanding between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements, commitments, arrangements, negotiations or understandings, whether oral or written, between the parties hereto, their respective Affiliates or any of the Representatives of any of them with respect thereto. There are no agreements, covenants or undertakings with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, the other Acquisition Documents and the Non-Disclosure Agreement other than those expressly set forth or referred to herein or therein and no representations or warranties of any kind or nature whatsoever, express or implied, are made or shall be deemed to be made herein by the parties hereto except those expressly made in this Agreement, the other Acquisition Documents and the Non-Disclosure Agreement.

SECTION 13.10 Severability. Each term and provision of this Agreement constitutes a separate and distinct undertaking, covenant, term and/or provision hereof. In the event that any term or provision of this Agreement shall be determined to be unenforceable, invalid or illegal in any respect, such unenforceability, invalidity or illegality shall not affect any other term or provision hereof, but this Agreement shall be construed as if such unenforceable, invalid or illegal term or provision had never been contained herein. Moreover, if any term or provision of this Agreement shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad as to time, duration, activity, scope or subject, the parties request that it be construed, by limiting and reducing it, so as to be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law.

SECTION 13.11 No Third Party Beneficiaries. Except as and to the extent otherwise provided herein, nothing in this Agreement is intended, nor shall anything herein be construed, to confer any rights, legal or equitable, in any Person other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

SECTION 13.12 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which, when taken together, shall constitute one and the same instrument.

SECTION 13.13 Guarantee (a) Guarantor hereby, unconditionally and irrevocably, guarantees (this “Guaranty”) by way of an independent obligation to the Sellers (each Seller referred to herein individually as a “Beneficiary” and collectively referred to herein as “Beneficiaries”) (i) the due, prompt and faithful performance by the Purchaser of all undertakings, obligations, required acts and performances of the Purchaser to such Beneficiaries under or arising out of this Agreement, and (ii) the due and punctual payment of all amounts due and payable by the Purchaser to such Beneficiaries under or arising out of this Agreement after the date hereof, when and as the same shall arise and become due and payable in accordance with the terms of and subject to the conditions contained in this Agreement (the “Guaranteed Obligations”).

(b) This is a guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection only. If for any reason whatsoever the Purchaser shall fail or be unable to perform or comply with any of its Guaranteed Obligations, Guarantor will promptly upon receipt of notice thereof from the Beneficiaries entitled to such performance or payment forthwith (i) pay or cause to be paid in lawful money of the United States the unpaid Guaranteed Obligations then due and payable to each such Beneficiary (at the place specified and in the amounts and to the extent required of the Purchaser under this Agreement) and (ii) perform or comply with the Guaranteed Obligations for which performance or compliance is due or cause such Guaranteed Obligations to be performed or complied with (such performance or compliance as required of Purchaser under this Agreement).

(c) Guarantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against Guarantor and without notice to or further assent by Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations made by the Beneficiaries may be rescinded by the Beneficiaries and any of the Guaranteed Obligations continued, and the Guaranteed Obligations, or the liability of any other Person upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, if any, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by the Beneficiaries, and this Agreement and any other documents executed and delivered in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part.

(d) Guarantor waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the Beneficiaries upon this Guaranty or acceptance of this Guaranty; the Guaranteed Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived, in reliance upon this Guaranty; and all dealings between the Purchaser and Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Beneficiaries, on the other hand, likewise shall be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this Guaranty. Guarantor agrees that (i) any notice provided under this Agreement to the Purchaser (including any demand for payment or notice of default or non payment) shall be deemed to constitute notice to Guarantor for purposes hereof and (ii) any knowledge of the Purchaser shall be deemed knowledge of Guarantor for purposes hereof. Nothing in this Section 13.13 shall be deemed to constitute a waiver of, or prevent Guarantor from asserting, any valid defense that may be asserted by the Purchaser. Guarantor waives any defense whatsoever to the performance of the Guaranteed Obligations that would not constitute a valid defense by the Purchaser. Guarantor understands and agrees that this Guaranty shall be construed as a continuing, absolute and unconditional guaranty of payment and performance without regard to (x) the validity or enforceability of this Section 13.13, or (y) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of the Purchaser or Guarantor) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of the Purchaser for the Guaranteed Obligations, or of Guarantor under this Guaranty in bankruptcy or any similar proceedings. When making any demand hereunder or otherwise pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against Guarantor, the Beneficiaries

may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on or otherwise pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against the Purchaser or any other Person or against any collateral security or guaranty for the Guaranteed Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the Beneficiaries to make any such demand, to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from the Purchaser or any other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guaranty or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of the Purchaser or any other Person or any such collateral security, guaranty or right of offset, shall not relieve Guarantor of any obligation or liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the Beneficiaries against Guarantor. For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings.

(e) This Guaranty shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Beneficiaries upon any insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization involving the Purchaser or Guarantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Purchaser or Guarantor or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made.

(f) Guarantor shall pay reasonable out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees, reasonable out-of-pocket costs and other expenses of each of the Beneficiaries expended or incurred in enforcing this Guaranty against Guarantor with respect to any claim against the Purchaser in which the Beneficiaries are the prevailing party, whether or not legal action is instituted, including, without limitation, all fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement or other similar proceedings involving the Purchaser or Guarantor which in any way affect the exercises by any Beneficiary of any of its rights and/or remedies hereunder.

(g) This Section 13.13 shall terminate at the Effective Time.
