RECITALS

The Seller is the owner of all of the issued and outstanding limited liability company units of the Company, and upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement the Seller desires to sell and transfer to Buyer, and Buyer desires to purchase, all the issued and outstanding limited liability company units of the Company (the “Units”).

AGREEMENT

Therefore, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual agreements and covenants set forth below, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

1. DEFINITIONS. The terms and definitions set forth on Exhibit 1.2 attached hereto will be incorporated by reference as if contained and defined herein.

2. ACQUISITION.

2.1. At the Closing and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and upon payment of the Initial Purchase Price by the Buyer in accordance with Section 3.1 below (the Initial Purchase Price, as adjusted pursuant to Sections 3.3.2 and 3.4, the “Purchase Price”), Buyer is hereby purchasing and accepting from the Seller, and the Seller is hereby selling, transferring and delivering to the Buyer, free and clear of any Encumbrances, all of the Units in the Company.

2.2. The Units transferred by the Seller pursuant to Section 2.1 above constitute all of the issued and outstanding limited liability company units of the Company.

3. PAYMENT AND CLOSING.

3.1. Purchase Price. The purchase price being paid at Closing (the “Initial Purchase Price”) equals US$53,500,000 minus (a) the adjustment set forth in Section 3.3.1.2 of $136,000 and (b) an amount totaling $500,000 constituting the Escrow Funds to be deposited by the Buyer pursuant to Section 7.10. At the Closing, the Buyer is paying the Initial Purchase Price by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account or accounts designated by the Seller.

3.3. Working Capital Adjustment Mechanics.

3.3.1. Closing Date Purchase Price Adjustment.

3.3.1.1. The Company has provided Buyer with an estimated statement of the Working Capital of the Company (the “Estimated Closing Working Capital Statement”) setting forth the Company’s calculation of the amount of Working Capital of the Company as of the close of business on August 31, 2012 (the “Estimated Closing Working Capital Amount”). The Estimated Closing Working Capital Statement has been prepared by the Company in accordance with past practices.

3.3.1.2. If the Estimated Closing Working Capital Amount is less than the Target Working Capital Amount, then the Initial Purchase Price to be paid at Closing will be decreased on a dollar for dollar basis by the amount that the Estimated Closing Working Capital Amount is less than the Target Working Capital Amount. If the Estimated Closing Working Capital Amount is greater than the Target Working Capital Amount, then the Initial Purchase Price to be paid at Closing will be increased on a dollar for dollar basis by the amount that the Estimated Closing Working Capital Amount is greater than the Target Working Capital Amount.

3.3.2. Post-Closing Purchase Price Adjustment.

3.3.2.1. As soon as practicable (and in no event later than 90 days) after the Closing, the Buyer will prepare or cause to be prepared and deliver to the Seller a statement of the Working Capital of the Company (the “Closing Working Capital Statement”) setting forth a calculation of the amount of Working Capital of the Company as of the close of business on the Closing Date (the “Closing Working Capital Amount”), which will be accompanied by an explanation and schedule of variations from the Estimated Closing Working Capital Amount. The Closing Working Capital Statement will be determined consistent with the Company’s past practices; provided that the calculation of current assets and current liabilities as of the Closing Date shall not reflect any accruals or reserves except as are calculated using the same procedures and methodologies as the applicable line items of the Company’s balance sheet as of December 31, 2011, whether or not doing so is in accordance with GAAP. For the avoidance of doubt, Schedule 3.3.2.1 sets forth the calculation of Working Capital as of December 31, 2011. During the 30 days immediately following the Seller’s receipt of the Closing Working Capital Statement and any period of dispute with respect thereto thereafter, Buyer shall, and shall cause the Company to, (x) assist the Seller in the review of the Closing Working Capital Statement and provide the Seller and its representatives with reasonable access during normal business hours to the books, records (including work papers, schedules, memoranda and other documents), supporting data, facilities and employees of the Company for purposes of their review of the Closing Working Capital Statement, and (y) cooperate with the Seller and its representatives in connection with

-2-

such review, including providing on a timely basis all other information necessary or useful in connection with the review of the Closing Working Capital Statement as is reasonably requested by the Seller or its representatives. The Closing Working Capital Statement will be final, conclusive and binding on the parties unless the Seller provides a written notice (a “Dispute Notice”) to the Buyer no later than 30 days after delivery to the Seller of the Closing Working Capital Statement setting forth in reasonable detail the nature and amount of any disagreement so asserted. Any item or amount with respect to which no dispute is raised in the Dispute Notice will be final, conclusive and binding on the parties.

3.3.2.2. If the Buyer and the Seller cannot agree on the final Closing Working Capital Amount within 10 days after the delivery of a Dispute Notice, the parties will submit their respective final calculations of the items in dispute (including any adjustments the parties wish to make as a result of negotiations up to the date of such submission) to Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx, LLP (“Arbitrating Accountant”). The Arbitrating Accountant will review such final calculations, and with respect to each disputed item, make a selection as to which of the disputed items presented to it is, in the aggregate, more accurate (selecting one of such items without interpolation or adjustment). The decision of the Arbitrating Accountant will be made in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The decision of the Arbitrating Accountant will be made within 20 days after being engaged, or as soon thereafter as reasonably practicable, and will be final and binding on the parties. The costs and expenses of the Arbitrating Accountant will be paid by the party whose proposed calculation of the Closing Working Capital Amount is the furthest amount from the Working Capital Amount as calculated by the Arbitrating Accountant. The Buyer and the Seller will make available to the Arbitrating Accountant all reasonably relevant books and records relating to the calculations submitted and all other information reasonably requested by the Arbitrating Accountant.

3.3.2.3. Upon the final determination of the Closing Working Capital Amount, the Purchase Price will be adjusted to reflect the difference between the Closing Working Capital Amount and the Estimated Closing Working Capital Amount as follows:

(a) If the Closing Working Capital Amount is greater than the Estimated Closing Working Capital Amount, then the Purchase Price will be increased by, and the Buyer will pay to the Seller the amount of, any such excess within two Business Days by wire transfer of immediately available funds.

(b) If the Closing Working Capital Amount is less than the Estimated Closing Working Capital Amount, then the Purchase Price will be decreased by the amount of such shortfall (the “Shortfall”) and the Buyer will be entitled to payment of the Shortfall from the Seller, within two Business Days by wire transfer of immediately available funds.

3.4. Contingent Payment.

3.4.1. The Buyer shall prepare and deliver to the Seller within 150 days after each of December 31, 2013, December 31, 2014, December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2016 the audited balance sheet and related statements of income, retained earnings and cash flows of the Company as at and for the calendar years ended December 31, 2013, December 31, 2014, December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2016 (each such calendar year an “Earnout Year” and collectively, the “Earnout Period”), respectively, as approved by the Buyer’s board of directors (the “Post-Closing Financial Statements”), together with a calculation of Qualified EBITDA for such Earnout Year determined from the respective Post-Closing Financial Statements for each Earnout Year (the “Qualified EBITDA Calculation”). The Post-Closing Financial Statements and Qualified EBITDA Calculation shall be computed in accordance with GAAP, consistent with the past practices of the Company.

3.4.2. During the 30 days immediately following the Seller’s receipt of the Post-Closing Financial Statements and the Qualified EBITDA Calculation and any period of dispute with respect thereto thereafter, Buyer shall, and shall cause the Company to, (x) assist the Seller in the review of the Post-Closing Financial Statements and the Qualified EBITDA Calculation and provide the Seller and its representatives with reasonable access during normal business hours to the books, records (including work papers, schedules, memoranda and other documents), supporting data, facilities and employees of the Company for purposes of their review of the Post-Closing Financial Statements and the Qualified EBITDA Calculation, and (y) cooperate with the Seller and its representatives in connection with such review, including providing on a timely basis all other information necessary or useful in connection with the review of the Post-Closing Financial Statements and the Qualified EBITDA Calculation as is reasonably requested by the Seller or its representatives. The Post-Closing Financial Statements and the Qualified EBITDA Calculation will be final, conclusive and binding on the parties unless the Seller provides a Dispute Notice to the Buyer no later than 30 days after delivery to the Seller of the Post-Closing Financial Statements and the Qualified EBITDA Calculation setting forth in reasonable detail the nature and amount of any disagreement so asserted. Any item or amount with respect to which no dispute is raised in the Dispute Notice will be final, conclusive and binding on the parties.

3.4.3. If the Buyer and the Seller cannot agree on the final Post-Closing Financial Statements and the Qualified EBITDA Calculation within 10 days after the delivery of a Dispute Notice, the parties will submit their respective final calculations of the items in dispute (including any adjustments the parties wish to make as a result of negotiations up to the date of such submission) to the Arbitrating Accountant. The Arbitrating Accountant will review such final calculations, and with respect to each disputed item, make a selection as to which of the disputed items presented to it is, in the aggregate, more accurate (selecting one of such items without interpolation or adjustment). The decision of the Arbitrating Accountant will be made in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The decision of the Arbitrating Accountant will be made within 20 days after being engaged, or as soon thereafter as reasonably practicable, and will be final and binding on the parties. The costs and expenses of the Arbitrating Accountant will be paid by the party whose proposed calculation of Qualified EBITDA for the applicable Earnout Year is the furthest amount from such Qualified EBITDA as calculated by the

-4-

Arbitrating Accountant. The Buyer and the Seller will make available to the Arbitrating Accountant all reasonably relevant books and records relating to the calculations submitted and all other information reasonably requested by the Arbitrating Accountant.

3.4.4. If Qualified EBITDA for an Earnout Year exceeds $11,000,000 (the “Target”), the Buyer shall pay to the Seller an amount equal to $1,000,000 (the “Annual Earnout Amount”) for such Earnout Year.

3.4.5. All payments due under Sections 3.4.4 and 3.4.7 will be made by wire transfer or delivery of other immediately available funds to the accounts designated in writing by the Seller within 30 days following the final determination of the Qualified EBITDA for any such Earnout Year or period, as applicable. If all or any portion of any amount under Section 3.4.4 or 3.4.7, if earned, is not paid in full in cash by the Buyer when due, then the unpaid amount of the Annual Earnout Amount shall bear interest at 10% from such due date until paid. All such interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year containing 12 months, counting the actual number of days in each month.

3.4.6. The Buyer agrees that from and after the Closing until the obligations of the Buyer under Sections 3.4.4 and 3.4.5 are satisfied in full, the Buyer will furnish to the Seller, within 60 days after the end of each calendar quarter, a copy of the Company’s unaudited consolidated balance sheet and statements of income and cash flows as at the end of such quarter.

3.4.7. In the event of an occurrence of a Change in Control during the Earnout Period, if Qualified EBITDA for the 12-month period ending the last day of the month immediately preceding the month during which the Change in Control occurs exceeds the Target, the Buyer will pay to the Seller an amount equal to the aggregate of the Annual Earnout Amounts for each of the Earnout Year in which such Change in Control occurs and any subsequent Earnout Year. The amount due hereunder will be paid by the Buyer to the Seller as a condition to the consummation of such Change in Control transaction.

7. CERTAIN AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES.

7.1. Payment of Transfer Taxes and Other Charges. Buyer and Seller do not anticipate that any tax will be due and payable based on the transactions involving the Units. In the event, however, that any such taxes are due and payable, the Seller, on the one hand, and the Buyer, on the other hand, will split (50% each) responsibility for, and each will pay 50% of all stock transfer taxes, real property transfer taxes, sales taxes, documentary stamp taxes, recording charges and other similar Taxes (in each case other than any charges or fees for recording mortgages and other similar mortgage Taxes, which shall be paid by the Buyer), if any, arising in connection with the transactions involving the Units. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 7.1 shall not apply to any Taxes arising from the provision of goods or services under the Transition Services Agreement. Each of the parties hereto will prepare and file, and will fully cooperate with each other party with respect to the preparation and filing of, any Tax Returns and other filings relating to any such Taxes or charges as may be required.

7.2. Further Assurances. Each party, upon the request from time to time of any other party hereto after the Closing, and at the expense of the requesting party but without further consideration will take such actions as may be necessary or reasonably requested to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby in an orderly fashion.

7.3. Tax Matters.

7.3.1. Liability for Taxes. Seller will be liable to the Company for amounts in excess of the amounts accrued on or reserved for in the Balance Sheet that are (i) attributable to Taxes due with respect to Tax Returns that are required to be filed by the Company for any taxable period, or portion thereof, ending on or before the day before the Closing Date (“Pre-Closing Date Period”), or (ii) attributable to claims, losses, liabilities, obligations, damages, impositions,

-20-

assessments, demands, judgments, settlements, costs and expenses with respect to such Taxes. Buyer will be liable for Taxes of the Company with respect to any and all periods, or portions thereof, beginning after the Closing Date (“Post-Closing Date Periods”) and for any and all claims, losses, liabilities, obligations, damages, impositions, assessments, demands, judgments, settlements, costs and expenses with respect to such Taxes. Any and all transactions or events contemplated by this Agreement that occur at or prior to the Closing Date will be deemed to have occurred in the Pre-Closing Date Period.

7.3.2. Allocation of Liability for Taxes. In the case of any Taxes that are attributable to a taxable period which begins before the Closing Date and ends after the Closing Date, the amount of Taxes attributable to the Pre-Closing Date Period will be determined as follows:

7.3.2.1. In the case of franchise or similar Taxes imposed on the Company based on capital (including net worth or long-term debt) or number of units authorized, issued or outstanding, the portion attributable to the Pre-Closing Date Period will be the amount of such Taxes for the entire taxable period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the Pre-Closing Date Period and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire taxable period; provided, however, the amount of tax attributable to the Pre-Closing Date Period will not exceed the amount of Tax the Company would owe on an interim closing of the books method as if its taxable period ended immediately prior to the day before the Closing Date; and

7.3.2.2. In the case of all other Taxes, the portion attributable to the Pre-Closing Date Period will be determined on the basis of an interim closing of the books of the Company as of the day before the Closing Date, and the determination of the hypothetical Tax for such Pre-Closing Date Period will be determined on the basis of such interim closing of the books, without annualization. The hypothetical Tax for any period will in no case be less than zero ($0). Taxes attributable to Pre-Closing Date Period will be determined under the same method of accounting used by the Company during that period.

7.3.3. Administration of Tax Matters. The Company will prepare and timely file, or cause to be timely filed, for the Company, with reasonable assistance and approval of the Seller, Tax Returns that are required by law to be filed for the taxable period ended, or any portion thereof, on or before the Closing Date including, but not limited to, federal income tax returns. Such Tax Returns will be prepared and filed in a manner consistent with past practices. The Company will, at least 30 days prior to filing such Tax Return(s), provide a copy of such Tax Return(s) to both Buyer and Seller. Buyer and Seller will, within 10 days of receiving such Tax Return(s), advise the other party and the Company regarding any matters in such Tax Return(s) that it considers detrimental, and with which it disagrees. In such case, Seller and Buyer will reasonably cooperate with each other to reach a timely and mutually satisfactory solution to the disputed matters. Seller will provide to Buyer a copy of all such Tax Return(s) together with the work

-21-

papers and schedules utilized in their preparation. Buyer, the Company and Seller will cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested, in connection with the filing of Tax Return(s) and any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes and Tax Return(s) (which Seller will control and remain responsible for with respect to the Pre-Closing Date Period, and Buyer will control and remain responsible for with respect to the Post-Closing Date Period). Such cooperation will include the retention, and (upon the other party’s request) the provision, of records and information which are reasonably relevant to any such audit, litigation or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. Buyer agrees to retain or cause the Company to retain all books and records, with respect to tax matters pertinent to the Company relating to any Pre-Closing Date Periods, until the expiration of any applicable statute of limitations or extensions thereof.

7.3.4. Tax Refunds. Any amount refunded to the Company for Taxes relating to the Pre-Closing Date Periods will be the property of Seller, and the Buyer will promptly deliver such amounts received by it to Seller.

7.3.5. Amended Tax Returns and Refund Claims. Seller may not file any amended Tax Returns or refund claims of the Company in respect of any taxable period of the Company ending on or prior to the Closing Date without the prior written consent of Buyer, which will not be unreasonably withheld. Buyer will not, and will cause the Company to not (and will not permit or cause the Company to) amend any Tax Return of the Company in respect of any taxable period of the Company ending on or prior to the day before the Closing Date without the prior written consent of Seller, which will not be unreasonably withheld. Except to the extent required by applicable laws, Buyer shall not take any action (including the amendment of any Tax Return) on or after the Closing Date which would increase the Seller’s liability for Taxes (including any liability of Seller to indemnify Buyer for Taxes under this Agreement). The Company will (and Buyer will cause the Company to) indemnify Seller for any Tax liability Seller incurs as a result of any such action or any such amendment filed by the Company or Buyer; provided, however, that the Company will not be required to indemnify Seller (and Buyer will not be required to cause the Company to indemnify Seller) for any liability Seller incurs as a result of any action resulting from, or amendment filed in connection with, any audit of a Tax Return.

7.3.6. Allocation of Purchase Price. Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Seller, within sixty (60) days of the final determination of the Closing Working Capital Amount, a proposed allocation of the purchase price consideration for the Company assets deemed to have been sold by Seller to the Buyer (the “Proposed Allocation”) for income Tax purposes. Within thirty (30) days of Buyer’s delivery of the Proposed Allocation, Seller may deliver written notice (a “Protest Notice”) to Buyer of any objections, specifying any contested items and the basis therefor, which Seller may have to the Proposed Allocation. The failure of Seller to deliver

-22-

such Protest Notice within the prescribed time period will constitute Seller’s acceptance of the Proposed Allocation. Upon receipt of the Proposed Allocation, the parties and their accountants will be given reasonable access to the Company’s relevant books and records, workpapers and personnel for the purpose of verifying such allocation. If Buyer and Seller are unable to resolve any disagreement with respect to the Proposed Allocation within fifteen (15) days following Buyer’s receipt of the Protest Notice, then the items in dispute shall be referred to the Arbitrating Accountant for final determination within forty-five (45) calendar days, at the parties’ mutual 50-50 expense. Once the allocation has been finally determined in accordance with this Section (as so determined and as may be adjusted pursuant to the preceding sentence, the “Final Allocation”), it shall be binding on Buyer, Seller and the Company.

7.3.7. Consistent Reporting. After the Closing Date, Buyer, Seller, and their owners and Affiliates will make consistent use of the Final Allocation in the preparation and filing of their income tax returns for the year including the Closing Date and any reports required to be filed pursuant to Section 1060 of the Code. Each of the Buyer and Seller shall complete and file IRS Form 8594 (and any similar form required by state, local or foreign law) on a basis consistent with the Final Allocation. Not later than 30 days prior to the filing of their respective Forms 8594 relating to this transaction, the Buyer and Sellers shall each deliver to the other party a copy of its Form 8594.

7.4. Maintenance of Records. Buyer agrees to maintain the files and records with respect to the Company, its assets and the Business for seven years after the Closing. Buyer shall and shall cause the Company to (i) give Seller and its authorized representatives reasonable access to all books, records, personnel, accountants, offices and other facilities and properties of the Company or otherwise relating to the Business, (ii) permit Seller to make such copies and inspections thereof as Seller may reasonably request, and (iii) cause Buyer’s and the Company’s officers, as applicable, to furnish Seller with such financial and operating data and other information with respect to the Business for periods prior to the Closing as Seller may from time to time reasonably request, in each case (a) to comply with reporting, disclosure, filing or other requirements imposed on Seller or any of its Affiliates (including under applicable securities laws) by a governmental or regulatory authority having jurisdiction over Seller or any of its Affiliates, (b) for use in any proceeding or in order to satisfy audit, accounting, claims, regulatory, litigation, subpoena or other similar requirements or (c) to comply with the obligations of Seller or any of its Affiliates under this Agreement (including Section 3.3.2).

7.5. Insurance. Buyer acknowledges that (a) any insurance policies held by or for the benefit of the Company or covering the assets of Company or the Business and in effect prior to the Closing are terminating as of the Closing and (b) upon and after the Closing, Buyer will be responsible for obtaining any insurance policies for the benefit of or covering the Company.

7.7. Intellectual Property. It is expressly agreed that Buyer is not purchasing, acquiring or otherwise obtaining any right, title or interest in the name “PostRock Energy,” “PostRock” or any derivative of either of them (collectively, the “Seller Names”), or any trade names, trademarks, identifying logos or service marks related thereto or employing the words “PostRock Energy,” “PostRock” or any part or variation of any of the foregoing or any confusingly similar trade names, trademarks, logos or service marks (collectively, including the Seller Names, the “Seller Trademarks and Logos”), and any right, title or interest the Company may have in the Seller Trademarks and Logos shall terminate as of the Closing. Neither Buyer nor any of its Affiliates shall make any use of the Seller Trademarks and Logos from and after 30 days following the Closing, including through the use of stationery, letterhead or e-mail. Buyer shall, at its own cost and within 30 days from the Closing Date, (i) remove from the properties and assets of the Company, or paint over, any and all of the Seller Trademarks and Logos and (ii) change the legal and trade names of the Company such that they do not include the Seller Names.

7.8. Buyer’s Option to Hire Employees.

Any such offers of employment shall be made by the Buyer no later than the Closing Date and each such Employee shall have until the Business Day following Closing to accept the offer.

If the Buyer takes any action within 180 days after the Closing Date that independently, or in connection with any reduction in the size of the Buyer’s or the Company’s work force occurring within the 90-day period prior to the Closing Date, could be construed as a “plant closing” or “mass layoff,” as those terms are defined in the WARN Act, the Buyer shall be solely responsible for providing any notice required by the WARN Act and for making payments, if any, and paying all penalties and costs, if any, which may result from any failure to provide such notice.

Prior to the Closing, by instrument in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit 7.9, Seller has transferred or caused to be transferred to the Company the El Dorado East/West Lateral as more fully described on Schedule 7.9 (the “Lateral”).

7.10. Xxxxx Facility. The Company has transferred ownership of the Xxxxx Facility to an Affiliate of Seller by Quit Claim Deed dated September 10, 2012, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 7.10.1 (the “Xxxxx Deed”). Within three Business Days following the Closing Date, the Buyer shall deposit an amount equal to $500,000 (the “Escrow Funds”) with the Escrow Agent to be held in escrow pursuant to this Section 7.10 and the terms of the Escrow Agreement to be entered into on the date of such deposit by the Buyer, the Seller and the Escrow Agent in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit 7.10.2, with such changes as shall be reasonably requested by the Escrow Agent (the “Escrow Agreement”). Seller has begun, and in consideration of, and effective upon deposit of, the Escrow Funds agrees to complete, an Acceptable Cleanup of the Xxxxx Facility within six months from the Closing (the “Cleanup Deadline”); provided, however, that if as of the Cleanup Deadline Seller is actively engaged in remediation of Hazardous Waste found at the Xxxxx Facility, then the Cleanup Deadline shall be extended for a period of time reasonably necessary to complete such remediation. In that event, upon determining that an extension will be required, Seller will promptly thereafter advise Buyer of the facts giving rise to the need for extension. Upon timely completion of said cleanup, Seller will deliver to Buyer a letter certifying that Seller has completed the Acceptable Cleanup of the Xxxxx Facility in conformance with this Agreement. Seller will contemporaneously deliver to Buyer a report issued and signed by iSi Environmental headquartered in Wichita, Kansas, identifying any Hazardous Waste discovered in connection with the cleanup and certifying that such waste was remediated in accordance with applicable Environmental Laws. Any remediation of Hazardous Waste shall be approved by the Kansas Department of Health and Environment. Upon Buyer’s receipt of the aforementioned letter and report, Buyer and Seller shall immediately deliver to the Escrow Agent a joint instruction letter directing the Escrow Agent to release the Escrow Funds to Seller. In the event that Seller fails to effect an Acceptable Cleanup by the Cleanup Deadline or any extension thereof, then Buyer and Seller shall immediately deliver to the Escrow Agent a joint instruction letter directing the Escrow Agent to release the Escrow Funds to Buyer.

10.1. Buyer’s Indemnification. Subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 10, from and after the Closing, the Buyer will indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller and Seller’s respective Affiliates (excluding the Company), and the representatives and Affiliates of each of the foregoing Persons (collectively, the “Seller Indemnitees”), from, against and in respect of Losses incurred as a result of any of the following:

10.1.1. any breach or default in performance by the Buyer of any covenant or agreement of the Buyer contained in this Agreement;

10.1.2. any breach of any representation or warranty made by the Buyer in this Agreement or in any certificate or document delivered by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement in connection with such representation or warranty; or

10.1.3. any Taxes for which the Buyer is liable under this Agreement.

10.2. Seller’s Indemnification. Subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 10, from and after the Closing Seller and the Parent, jointly and severally, will indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Buyer and each of its Affiliates (including, following the Closing, the Company), and the representatives and Affiliates of each of the foregoing Persons (collectively, the “Buyer Indemnitees”), from, against and in respect of Losses incurred as a result of any of the following:

-26-

10.2.1. any breach or default in performance by the Seller of any covenant or agreement of the Seller contained in this Agreement;

10.2.2. any breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company or the Seller in this Agreement or in any certificate or document delivered by the Company pursuant to this Agreement in connection with such representation or warranty; and

10.2.3. any Taxes for which the Seller is liable under this Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement and in partial consideration for the Deductible described in Section 10.3, for the purposes of the indemnification provisions in this Section 10.2, the determination of the amount of any Losses with respect to any breach of any representation or warranty will be made without giving effect to any “Material Adverse Effect” qualification or any materiality qualification contained in the representations and warranties contained herein.

10.3. Monetary Limitations. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Seller will have no obligation to indemnify any Buyer Indemnitees pursuant to Section 10 (other than with respect to any breach of any of the Fundamental Representations) until the aggregate of all Losses incurred or sustained by Buyer Indemnitees exceeds $500,000 (the “Deductible”), at which point the Seller will be liable for the amount of all Losses in excess of the Deductible. In no event shall the Seller’s aggregate liability to Buyer Indemnitees pursuant to Section 10 exceed an amount equal to $5,000,000 (other than with respect to any breach of any of the Fundamental Representations). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the obligations of the Seller for any and all Losses incurred by the Buyer Indemnitees (including Losses incurred in connection with a breach of any Fundamental Representation) shall not in aggregate exceed the Initial Purchase Price.

10.4. Time Limitations. No claim for indemnification for any breach of any of the representations or warranties in this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10 will be valid unless notice thereof is delivered to the relevant indemnifying parties at any time prior to the 18-month anniversary of the Closing Date.

10.5. Direct Indemnification Payment Obligations. Promptly after receipt by any Person that has rights of indemnification under this Agreement (each an “Indemnified Party”) of notice of any event triggering an indemnification obligation under this Section 10, such Indemnified Party will give the indemnifying party (“Indemnifying Party”) written notice of such event, providing reasonable detail regarding the nature and dollar amount of such claim under this Section 10 (a “Claim Notice”). If the Indemnifying Party gives written notice that it disputes its indemnity obligations (a “Counter Notice”) within 30 days following receipt of the Claim Notice (the “Counter Notice Deadline”), the parties will attempt in good faith to agree on the resolution of the disputed amount. The Indemnifying Party will pay to Indemnified Party all non-disputed amounts within five Business Days following the Counter Notice Deadline (“Non-Disputed Loss”). If the Indemnifying Party does not give a Counter Notice on or before the

-27-

Counter Notice Deadline, then the dollar amount of the indemnification obligation set forth in the Claim Notice will be deemed established for purposes of this Agreement (“Undisputed Loss” and each of a Non-Disputed Loss or an Undisputed Loss, an “Established Loss”) and such amount is due and payable in cash by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party within five Business Days following the Counter Notice Deadline.

10.6. Third Party Claims. If an Indemnified Party is subject to a claim or demand made by any Person against the Indemnified Party (a “Third Party Claim”), such Indemnified Party shall provide notice to the Indemnifying Party as promptly as reasonably possible 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 actually prejudiced as a result of such failure. Thereafter, the Indemnified Party shall deliver to the Indemnifying Party, within ten days after the Indemnified Party’s receipt thereof, copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnified Party relating to the Third Party Claim. If a Third Party Claim is made against an Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense thereof and, if it elects, to assume the defense thereof with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party and reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. Should an Indemnifying Party elect to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for legal 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. If the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend any Third Party Claim, all the parties hereto shall cooperate in the defense of such Third Party Claim. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the Indemnifying Party’s request) the provision to the Indemnifying Party of records and information which are reasonably relevant to such Third Party Claim, and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. If the Indemnifying Party shall control the defense of any such claim, the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into any settlement or compromise of any action, suit or proceeding or consent to the entry of any judgment (i) that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the delivery by the claimant or plaintiff to the Indemnified Party of a written release from all liability in respect of such action, suit or proceeding or (ii) for other than monetary damages to be borne by the Indemnifying Party, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.

10.7. Exclusive Remedy. Each party acknowledges and agrees that, from and after the Closing (except in the case of fraud and for disputes under Section 3.3.2, which disputes will be resolved in accordance with the dispute mechanism set forth in Section 3.3.2), its sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims relating to the subject matter of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Section 10. In furtherance of the foregoing and except for indemnification pursuant to this Section 10 and the rights granted in this Agreement, each Indemnified Party hereby waives, from and after the Closing, to the fullest extent permitted

-28-

under applicable law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action (other than any right, claim or cause of action arising out of fraud) it may have against any Indemnifying Party relating to the operation of the Company or its Business and the transactions contemplated hereby, whether arising under or based upon any federal, state, local or foreign statute, law, ordinance, rule or regulation or otherwise (excluding fraud, but including any right, whether arising at law or in equity, to seek indemnification, contribution, cost recovery, damages, or any other recourse or remedy, including as may arise under common law).

10.8. Insurance. The Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to the rights of any Indemnified Party in respect of any insurance relating to Losses to the extent of any indemnification payments made under this Agreement, and the Indemnified Party shall provide all reasonably requested assistance to the Indemnifying Party in respect of such subrogation.

10.9. No Duplication. Any liability for indemnification under this Agreement shall be determined without duplication of recovery by reason of the state of facts (i) giving rise to such liability constituting a breach of more than one representation, warranty, covenant or agreement or (ii) taken into account in determining any adjustment to the Purchase Price under Section 3.3.2.

10.10. No Special Damages. EXCEPT IN THE CASE OF FRAUD, IN NO EVENT SHALL ANY PARTY BE LIABLE UNDER THIS SECTION 10 OR OTHERWISE IN RESPECT OF THIS AGREEMENT FOR EXEMPLARY, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, INDIRECT, REMOTE, SPECULATIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT ANY SUCH PARTY INCURS SUCH DAMAGES PAYABLE TO AN UNAFFILIATED THIRD PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH A THIRD PARTY CLAIM, IN WHICH EVENT SUCH DAMAGES SHALL BE RECOVERABLE.

11. CONSENT TO JURISDICTION; JURY TRIAL WAIVER; GOVERNING LAW.

11.1. Consent to Jurisdiction. Each party to this Agreement, by its execution hereof, (a) hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state courts of the State of Kansas or a United States District Court in the State of Kansas in either case sitting in Wichita, Kansas for the purpose of any action, claim, cause of action or suit (in contract, tort or otherwise), inquiry proceeding or investigation arising out of or based upon this Agreement or relating to the subject matter hereof.

11.2. Governing Law. This Agreement and any claims related to the subject matter hereof will be governed by and construed in accordance with the domestic substantive laws of the State of Kansas, without giving effect to any choice or conflict of laws provision or rule that would cause the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction.

12. MISCELLANEOUS.

All of the terms and provisions of this Agreement will be binding upon and will inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted transferees and assigns (each of which transferees and assigns will be deemed to be a party hereto for all purposes hereof); provided, however, that (a) no transfer or assignment by any party hereto will be permitted without the prior written consent of the Seller and the Buyer and any such attempted transfer or assignment without consent will be null and void and (b) no transfer or assignment by any party will relieve such party of any of its obligations hereunder.
