2.3Conversion of Securities.

(a)At the Initial Effective Time, by virtue of the Reverse Merger and without the need for any further action on the part of the holder thereof, each one percent (1.0%) of Disappearing Sub membership interest issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Initial Effective Time shall be converted into one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, $0.10 par value per share, of the Initial Surviving Entity.

(b)At the Initial Effective Time, by virtue of the Reverse Merger and without any action on the part of the holders of any securities of Disappearing Sub or Val-Tex, each Share that is owned by Val-Tex as treasury stock and each Dissenting Share shall automatically be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor.

(c)Each Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Initial Effective Time held by a Shareholder of Val-Tex who holds 1,000 or fewer Shares (the “Cash-Only Shareholders”) shall be converted into and represent the right to receive an amount of cash (rounded to the nearest cent), without interest, equal to the Cash-Only Share Conversion Consideration.

(i)For purposes hereof, “Cash-Only Share Conversion Consideration” means, in respect of each of the Shares an amount determined as follows:

(A)an amount equal to (1) the Cash Merger Consideration plus (2) an amount equal to (x) the number of shares included in the Stock Merger Consideration multiplied by (y) the closing trading price of the Common Stock on the date immediately prior to the execution of this Agreement, divided by

(B)the aggregate number of Shares outstanding (excluding those held as treasury stock) immediately prior to the Initial Effective Time.

(d)At the Initial Effective Time, by virtue of the Reverse Merger and without the need for any further action on the part of the holder thereof (except as expressly provided herein), each Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Initial Effective Time and held by a Person who is not a Cash-Only Shareholder (other than any Shares to be canceled in accordance with Section 2.3(b)) shall be converted into and represent the right to receive an amount of cash (rounded to the nearest cent), without interest, and a number of shares of Common Stock (rounded to the nearest whole share) equal to the Share Conversion Consideration.

(i)For purposes hereof, “Share Conversion Consideration” means, in respect of each of the Shares an amount determined as set forth below:

(D)the aggregate number of Shares outstanding (excluding those held as treasury stock) and held by Shareholders immediately prior to the Initial Effective Time who are not Cash-Only Shareholders.

(e)Subject to Section 2.3(f), all Shares, when converted pursuant to Section 2.3(c) or (d), shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and retired, and each holder of a certificate or certificates (the “Stock Certificates”) representing any such Shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the respective Share Conversion Consideration or Cash-Only Share Conversion Consideration provided for in this Section 2.3. At the Initial Effective Time, the stock transfer books of Val-Tex shall be closed, and no transfer of Shares shall be made thereafter. If, after the Initial Effective Time, Stock Certificates are presented to the Initial Surviving Entity, they shall be canceled and exchanged as provided for in this Agreement.

(f)Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Shares which are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Initial Effective Time and which are held by holders who shall have complied with the provisions of Chapter 10, Subchapter H of the TBOC (the “Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into the right to receive the Share Conversion Consideration or the Cash-Only Share Conversion Consideration, and holders of such Dissenting Shares shall be entitled to receive payment of the fair value of such Dissenting Shares in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 10, Subchapter H of the TBOC, unless and until the applicable holder fails to comply with the provisions of Chapter 10, Subchapter H of the TBOC or effectively withdraws or otherwise loses such holder’s rights to receive payment of the fair value of such holder’s Shares under Chapter 10, Subchapter H of the TBOC.

(b)At the Initial Effective Time, KMG shall make available, or cause to be made available to the Paying Agent (x) an amount equal to the Closing Cash Consideration to the Paying Agent and (y) certificates representing a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Stock Merger Consideration.

the Stock Certificates to the Paying Agent and shall be in a form and have such other provisions as KMG may reasonably specify); and (B) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Stock Certificates in exchange for the Share Conversion Consideration or the Cash-Only Share Conversion Consideration. If any Dissenting Shares cease to be Dissenting Shares pursuant to Section 2.3(e), KMG shall instruct the Paying Agent promptly after the date on which KMG becomes aware that such Dissenting Shares have ceased to be Dissenting Shares to mail to the holder of record of such Shares the Share Surrender Form and instructions referred to in the preceding sentence, with respect to such Shares.

(ii)Upon surrender of a Stock Certificate (other than Stock Certificates to be canceled or retired pursuant to Section 2.3(b)) for cancellation to the Paying Agent, together with a Share Surrender Form, duly executed, and such other documents as may reasonably be required by the Paying Agent, the holder of such Stock Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor its appropriate share of the Closing Cash Consideration and, in the case of Shareholders who are not Cash-Only Shareholders, the Stock Merger Consideration and the Stock Certificates so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled.

(iii)If any Stock Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon (A) the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Stock Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and (B) the execution and delivery to KMG by such Person of an indemnity agreement in customary form and substance, the Paying Agent shall issue, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Stock Certificate, the appropriate share of the Closing Cash Consideration and the Stock Merger Consideration into which the Shares theretofore represented by such lost, stolen or destroyed Stock Certificate shall have been converted.

Val-Tex shall also make arrangements reasonably satisfactory to KMG for such holders to provide to KMG recordable form mortgage and lien releases, canceled notes and other documents reasonably requested by KMG prior to the Closing such that all Liens on the assets or properties of Val-Tex that are not Permitted Exceptions shall be satisfied, terminated and discharged on or prior to the Closing Date. On the Closing Date prior to the Closing, Val-Tex shall deliver to KMG a certificate of Val-Tex setting forth all Indebtedness of Val-Tex as of the close of business on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date that will not be paid off prior to the Closing (the “Closing Indebtedness”).

(c)Within 60 days after the Closing Date, KMG will prepare and deliver to the Shareholders’ Representative a schedule of the Inventory of Val-Tex as of the close of business on the Closing Date (as the same may be adjusted in accordance with this subsection, the “Closing Inventory Items List”), which schedule will be prepared in a manner consistent with that used in preparing the Inventory Items List, together with its calculation of Inventory as of the close of business on the Closing Date (as the same may be adjusted in accordance with this subsection, the “Closing Inventory”). The Shareholders’ Representative will have a period of 30 days after its receipt of the Closing Inventory Items List to review the same and to notify KMG in writing of any disputes regarding the same. As part of such review, the Shareholders’ Representative and its advisors will have reasonable access to KMG’s work papers and to the preparers of the Closing Inventory Items List and to the books and records on which the Closing Inventory Items List is based. If the Shareholders’ Representative notifies KMG of any dispute within 30 days after its receipt of the Closing Inventory Items List, then the parties will negotiate in good faith in an effort to resolve such dispute. If the parties are unable to resolve such dispute within 30 days after the Shareholders’ Representative receives the Closing Inventory Items List, then either party may submit such dispute to an independent accounting firm of recognized national or regional standing mutually acceptable to KMG and the Shareholders’ Representative for resolution or, if they cannot agree, BDO Xxxxxxx LLP (in either case, the “Independent Accounting Firm”) to resolve the dispute and the Independent Accounting Firm shall make within 30 days a final determination binding upon the parties of the appropriate amount of the Closing Inventory. If issues in dispute are submitted to the Independent Accounting Firm for resolution, (i) each party will furnish to the Independent Accounting Firm such workpapers and other documents and information relating to the disputed issues as the Independent Accounting

Firm may request and are available to that party or its independent public accountants, and will be afforded the opportunity to present to the Independent Accounting Firm any material relating to the determination and to discuss the determination with the Independent Accounting Firm; (ii) the determination by the Independent Accounting Firm, as set forth in a notice delivered to both parties by the Independent Accounting Firm, will be binding and conclusive on the parties; and (iii) KMG and the holders of the Shares, by reduction in the Inventory Holdback, will each bear 50% of the fees of the Independent Accounting Firm for such determination.

(d)If the Closing Inventory, as finally determined, is (i) less than Estimated Inventory, then the Paying Agent shall pay to KMG the amount of such deficiency out of the Inventory Holdback or (ii) in excess of Estimated Inventory, then KMG will pay to the Paying Agent for distribution to the holders of the Shares the amount of such excess.

(e)All payments under subsection (d) shall be made within five Business Days after the Closing Inventory has been finally determined. If a breach or inaccuracy of a representation or warranty by Val-Tex or the Principal Shareholders in this Agreement resulted in a reduction in the Closing Inventory, KMG shall not be entitled to indemnification under Article XI because of such breach or inaccuracy to the extent of such reduction in the Closing Inventory.

(f)Any payment to be made by the Paying Agent to KMG or by KMG to the Paying Agent under this Section shall be treated by the parties hereto as an adjustment to the Reverse Merger Consideration.

The Inventory Holdback shall be used to pay Reverse Merger Consideration adjustments as calculated under Section 2.5 and the Indemnity Holdback shall be used to pay indemnity obligations of the holders of the Shares under Sections 11.2 and 11.6 of this Agreement, but shall not limit such obligations. The Inventory Holdback shall be held for a period ending upon the final determination of the Closing Inventory, whereupon the net proceeds thereof, after the payments required by Section 2.5 are made, shall be paid to the Shareholders’ Representative Fund.

The Shareholders’ Representative shall also be entitled to indemnification out of the proceeds of the Shareholders’ Representative

Fund to the extent the holders of Shares are obligated to indemnify the Shareholders’ Representative pursuant to Article IX. Upon the end of the General Survival Period, the Shareholders’ Representative shall distribute all remaining amounts in the Shareholders’ Representative Fund to the holders of Shares in proportion to the Reverse Merger Consideration to which each is entitled.

6.3Ownership of Shares. Such Principal Shareholder is the record and beneficial owner of the Shares set forth opposite his name on Schedule 6.3 hereto, free and clear of any and all Liens.

6.4Securities Laws Matters.

Such Principal Shareholder has had access to such information concerning KMG and the Common Stock as it deems necessary to enable such Principal Shareholder to make an informed investment decision concerning the acquisition of the Common Stock, including access to KMG’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission available at xxx.xxx.

Such Principal Shareholder has independently determined the acceptability of an investment in KMG.

(c)Such Principal Shareholder acknowledges that an investment in the Common Stock is suitable and consistent with such Principal Shareholder’s investment program and that such Principal Shareholder’s financial position enables such Principal Shareholder to bear the risks of this investment.

(d)Such Principal Shareholder understands that the offer and sale of the Common Stock have not been reviewed, approved or disapproved by the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other Governmental Body. Such Principal Shareholder understands that the Common Stock is being offered and sold to it in reliance on Section 4(a)(2) and/or Regulation D, which are exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), as well as exemptions from the registration requirements of state securities laws and that KMG is relying in part upon the truth and accuracy of, and such Principal Shareholder’s compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments, and understandings of such Principal Shareholder set forth in this Agreement in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of such Principal Shareholder to acquire the Common Stock in compliance with such laws.

Such Principal Shareholder consents that KMG may, if it desires, permit the transfer of the Common Stock out of such Principal Shareholder’s name only when such Principal Shareholder’s request for transfer is accompanied by an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to KMG that neither the sale nor the proposed transfer results in a violation of the Securities Act or any applicable Blue Sky Laws.

If any claim or claims are brought against any Indemnified Party (whether arising before or after the Closing), such Indemnified Party may select counsel for the defense of such claim, which counsel shall be reasonably acceptable to the Final Surviving Entity.

(b)The Final Surviving Entity shall promptly advance all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of each Indemnified Party in connection with any such Legal Proceeding described above, as such expenses are incurred, to the fullest extent permitted by the TBOC, subject to the receipt by the Final Surviving Entity of an undertaking by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such Indemnified Party is not entitled to be indemnified by the Final Surviving Entity.

8.10Related Party Transactions. On or prior to the Closing Date, Val-Tex shall (a) terminate all Contracts with any Shareholder or its Affiliates (other than (i) those Contracts set forth on Schedule 8.10 and (ii) Contracts between Val-Tex and its officers and Employees and Contracts, the continuation of which, KMG has approved in writing) and (b) deliver releases executed by such Affiliates with whom Val-Tex has terminated such Contracts pursuant to this Section 8.10 providing that no further payments are due, or may become due, under or in respect of any such terminated Contracts; provided, that in no event shall Val-Tex pay any fee or otherwise incur any expense or financial exposure with respect to any such termination or release.

8.11Resignation of Officers and Directors. Val-Tex shall cause each of the Employees, officers and directors of Val-Tex listed on Schedule 8.11 to submit a letter of resignation in a form approved by KMG effective on or before the Closing Date.

8.12Offered Business. KMG agrees that if it determines to sell all or any portion of the ownership of Final Surviving Entity or other successor entity, or sell substantially all the lubricants business of Final Surviving Entity owned as of the Final Effective Time (the “Offered Business”) within five years of the Final Effective Time, except where the determination results from a bona fide unsolicited third party offer (“Unsolicited Offer”), KMG shall provide written notice (“Sale Notice”) to Xxxxxxx of such determination. Xxxxxxx shall indicate in writing within 10 days of receipt of the Sales Notice whether he is interested in a possible purchase of the Offered Business. If Xxxxxxx does not respond that he is interested in a possible purchase of the Offered Business in the 10‑day period, the parties shall have no further rights or obligations with respect to a possible purchase of the Offered Business. If Xxxxxxx responds that he is interested in a possible purchase of the Offered Business in the 10‑day period, Final Surviving Entity and KMG will not, directly or indirectly, offer the Offered Business to any third party, except where such transaction results from an Unsolicited Offer, until 30 days after the Sale Notice. Final Surviving Entity shall not be obligated to give a Sale Notice more than once during the 5‑year period after the Final Effective Time. Final Surviving Entity shall not be obligated to give a Sale Notice, and the provisions of this paragraph will not apply, (a) where the Offered Business is to be sold in connection with an Unsolicited Offer, (b) at any time after Final Surviving Entity has made an acquisition of any business from a third party, including any acquisition of a lubricants business, or (c) where the Offered Business is to be sold as part of the sale of KMG, whether that sale is effected through a sale of all or substantially all of KMG’s assets or the acquisition of all or a substantial portion of KMG’s securities by means of a tender offer, stock purchase, stock exchange, merger, consolidation or otherwise. Except as described in this Agreement as may be mutually agreed in written agreements entered into after the Sale Notice, neither Xxxxxxx, Final Surviving Entity nor KMG will have any obligation with respect to a possible sale of the Offered Business.

8.13Notification. Prior to the Closing, Val-Tex shall promptly notify KMG in writing if it becomes aware of (a) any fact or condition that causes or constitutes a breach or inaccuracy of any of Val-Tex’s representations and warranties made as of the date of this Agreement or (b) the occurrence after the date of this Agreement of any fact or condition that would be reasonably likely to (except as expressly contemplated by this Agreement) cause or constitute a breach or inaccuracy of any such representation or warranty had that representation or warranty been made of the time of the occurrence of, or Val-Tex’s discovery of, such fact or condition. Prior to the Closing, Val-Tex also shall promptly notify KMG of the occurrence of any breach of any covenant of Val-Tex in this Article VIII or of the occurrence of any event that may make the satisfaction of the conditions in Article X impossible.

(iv)to make, execute, acknowledge and deliver this Agreement, all such other agreements, guarantees, orders, receipts, endorsements, notices, requests, instructions, certificates, stock powers, letters and other writings, and, in general, to do any and all things and to take any and all action that the Shareholders’ Representative, in its sole and absolute discretion, may consider necessary or proper or convenient in connection with or to carry out the Transactions and all other agreements, documents or instruments referred to herein or therein or executed in connection herewith and therewith, including retaining counsel, accountants and other experts and incurring fees and expenses.

(b)The Shareholders’ Representative shall not be entitled to any fee, commission or other compensation for the performance of its services hereunder. In connection with this Agreement and any instrument, agreement or document relating hereto or thereto, and in exercising or failing to exercise all or any of the powers conferred upon the Shareholders’ Representative hereunder, (i) the Shareholders’ Representative shall incur no responsibility whatsoever to any holders of the Shares by reason of any error in judgment or other act or omission performed or omitted under this Agreement or any such other agreement, instrument or document, excepting only responsibility for any act or failure to act that represents willful misconduct or gross negligence, and (ii) the Shareholders’ Representative shall be entitled to rely on the advice of counsel, public accountants or other independent experts experienced in the matter at issue, and any error in judgment or other act or omission of the Shareholders’ Representative pursuant to such advice shall in no event subject the Shareholders’ Representative to Liability to any holders of the Shares.

(d)KMG, Disappearing Sub, Surviving Sub and Final Surviving Entity shall have the right to rely upon all actions taken or omitted to be taken by the Shareholders’ Representative pursuant to this Agreement, all of which actions or omissions shall be legally binding upon the holders of the Shares. Nothing in this Section 9.1 shall alter the obligations or rights of KMG or the Final Surviving Entity found in the rest of this Agreement, it being understood that the obligations of such parties under this Section 9.1 are limited to KMG’s payment of the Reverse Merger Consideration.

(e)Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 9.1, other than the last sentence of Section 9.1(d), unless the affected holder consents in writing, the Shareholders’ Representative shall not agree to any amendments or modifications of, and shall not execute and deliver any waivers or consents in connection with, this Agreement or the other agreements and documents referred to herein or therein, that (i) does not treat all holders of a particular series or class of the Shares equally in all material respects, (ii) increases the indemnity obligations of the holders of the Shares referenced in Sections 11.2 and 11.6, or (iii) increases the Indemnity Holdback.

(f)Subject to Section 9.1(e), the Share Surrender Forms shall include the provisions contained in Section 9.1(a) and Section 9.1(b) with such changes, additional terms, conditions, representations, warranties, releases, waivers, covenants, indemnities, consents and appointments as the Shareholders’ Representative either reasonably requests or deems necessary or appropriate for the consummation of the Transactions.

Article XI

INDEMNIFICATION

11.1Survival of Representations and Warranties. The representations and warranties of the parties contained in this Agreement, any certificate delivered pursuant hereto or any Val-Tex Document, Principal Shareholder Document or KMG Document shall survive the Closing (as applicable, the “Survival Period”) through and including the 18-month anniversary of the Closing Date (the “General Survival Period”); provided, that (a) the representations and warranties of Val-Tex and each Principal Shareholder contained in Sections 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, 5.8, 5.21, 6.1, 6.2, 6.3 and 6.6 (collectively, the “Fundamental Representations”) shall survive indefinitely following the Closing Date and (b) the representations and warranties of Val-Tex and the Principal Shareholders in Sections 5.10 and 5.19 shall survive for a period of 60 days following the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations relating thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other generally applicable statute of limitations, any obligations under Sections 11.2(a)(i) and 11.2(b)(i) shall not terminate with respect to any Losses as to which the Person to be indemnified shall have given notice (stating in reasonable detail the basis of the claim for indemnification) to the indemnifying party in accordance with Section 11.3(a) before the termination of the

applicable Survival Period. All covenants and agreements of the parties contained herein shall survive the Closing indefinitely or for such shorter period expressly provided therein.

11.2Indemnification.

(a)From and after the Closing, subject to Sections 11.1 and 11.4 hereof, each Principal Shareholder hereby agrees to jointly and severally indemnify and hold KMG and its Affiliates and their respective directors, managers, officers, employees, equity holders, members, partners, agents, attorneys, representatives, successors and assigns (collectively, the “KMG Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and against, and pay to the applicable KMG Indemnified Parties the amount of, any and all losses, Liabilities, claims, obligations, deficiencies, demands, judgments, damages (excluding any punitive damages, except to the extent arising from a Third Party Claim), interest, fines, penalties, claims, suits, actions, causes of action, assessments, awards, costs and expenses (including costs of investigation and defense and attorneys’ and other professionals’ fees and including those arising under Environmental Law), whether or not involving a Third Party Claim or Legal Proceeding (individually, a “Loss” and, collectively, “Losses”) to the extent based upon, attributable to or resulting from:

(i)any breach or inaccuracy of the representations or warranties made by such Principal Shareholder or Val-Tex in this Agreement or any certificate or other document furnished or to be furnished to KMG pursuant to this Agreement;

(ii)any breach of any covenant or other agreement on the part of such Principal Shareholder or Val-Tex under this Agreement; or

(iii)any Losses incurred because of a claim arising out of (A) the settlement and distribution of assets prior to Closing as described in Schedule 2.1(d) or (B) any of the assets and liabilities distributed in accordance with to Section 2.1(d).

THIS INDEMNITY OBLIGATION SHALL INCLUDE, WITHOUT LIMITATION, (I) ANY CLAIMS RESULTING FROM THE NEGLIGENCE OR ALLEGED NEGLIGENCE OF ANY INDEMNITEE AND (II) STATUTORY AND COMMON LAW NEGLIGENCE AND STRICT LIABILITY CLAIMS AS WELL AS NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, AND ALL OTHER CLAIMS ARISING UNDER ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION THE COMPREHENSIVE ENVIRONMENTAL RESPONSE COMPENSATION AND LIABILITY ACT.

(b)From and after the Closing and subject to Sections 11.1 and 11.4, KMG hereby agrees to indemnify and hold each Principal Shareholder and their respective Affiliates, equity holders, directors, officers, employees, members, partners, agents, attorneys, representatives, successors and permitted assigns (collectively, the “Val-Tex Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and against, and pay to the applicable Val-Tex Indemnified Parties the amount of, any and all Losses based upon, attributable to or resulting from:

(i)any breach or inaccuracy of the representations or warranties made by a KMG Entity in this Agreement or any certificate or other document furnished or to be furnished to Val-Tex pursuant to this Agreement; or

(ii)any breach of any covenant or other agreement on the part of any KMG Entity under this Agreement.

11.3Indemnification Procedures.

(a)Any payment a Principal Shareholder is obligated to make to any KMG Indemnified Parties pursuant to this Article XI shall be paid first, to the extent there are sufficient funds in the Indemnity Holdback, by release of funds to the KMG Indemnified Parties from the Indemnity Holdback by KMG within five (5) Business Days after the date notice of any sums due and owing is given to the Shareholders’ Representative (with a copy to KMG) by the applicable KMG Indemnified Party and shall accordingly reduce the Indemnity Holdback and, second, to the extent the Indemnity Holdback is insufficient to pay any remaining sums due, then the Principal Shareholders shall be required to pay all of such additional sums due and owing to the KMG Indemnified Parties by wire transfer of immediately available funds within five (5) Business Days after the date of such notice. On the expiration of the General Survival Period, KMG shall release the Indemnity Holdback (to the extent not utilized to pay KMG for any indemnification claim) to the Shareholders, except that the KMG shall retain an amount (up to the total amount then held by the KMG) equal to the amount of claims for indemnification under this Article XI asserted prior to the expiration of the General Survival Period but not yet resolved (“Unresolved Claims”). The Indemnity Holdback retained for Unresolved Claims shall be released by KMG (to the extent not utilized to pay KMG for any such claims resolved in favor of KMG) upon their resolution in accordance with this Article XI.

(b)A claim for indemnification for Losses for any matter not involving a Third Party Claim may be asserted by notice to the party from whom indemnification is sought.

(c)In the event that any Legal Proceedings shall be instituted or that any claim or demand shall be asserted by any third party in respect of which indemnification may be sought under Sections 11.2 and 11.6 (regardless of the limitations set forth in Section 11.4) (a “Third Party Claim”), the indemnified party shall promptly cause written notice of the assertion of any Third Party Claim of which it has knowledge which is covered by this indemnity to be forwarded to the indemnifying party (the Shareholders’ Representative if the Principal Shareholders are the indemnifying party). The failure of the indemnified party to give reasonably prompt notice of any Third Party Claim shall not release, waive or otherwise affect the indemnifying party’s obligations with respect thereto except to the extent that the indemnifying party can demonstrate actual material loss and prejudice as a result of such failure. Subject to the provisions of this Section 11.3, the indemnifying party shall have the right, at its sole expense, to be represented by counsel of its choice, which must be reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, and to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Third Party Claim which relates to any Losses indemnified against by it hereunder. If the indemnifying party elects to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Third Party Claim which relates to any Losses indemnified against by it hereunder, it shall within 20 days of the indemnified party’s written notice of the assertion of such Third Party Claim (or

sooner, if the nature of the Third Party Claim so requires) notify the indemnified party of its intent to do so. If the indemnifying party elects not to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Third Party Claim which relates to any Losses indemnified against by it hereunder or contests its obligation to indemnify the indemnified party for such Losses under this Agreement, the indemnified party may defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with such Third Party Claim. If the indemnified party defends any Third Party Claim, then the indemnifying party shall reimburse the indemnified party for the expenses of defending such Third Party Claim upon submission of periodic bills. If the indemnifying party shall assume the defense of any Third Party Claim, the indemnified party may participate, at his or its own expense, in the defense of such Third Party Claim; provided, that such indemnified party shall be entitled to participate in any such defense with separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party if in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the indemnified party, a conflict or potential conflict exists between the indemnified party and the indemnifying party that would make such separate representation advisable; and provided, further, that the indemnifying party shall not be required to pay for more than one such counsel for all indemnified parties in connection with any Third Party Claim. Each party hereto agrees to provide reasonable access to each other party to such documents and information as may be reasonably requested in connection with the defense, negotiation or settlement of any such Third Party Claim. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 11.3 to the contrary, neither the indemnifying party nor the indemnified party shall, without the prior written consent of the other party, settle or compromise any Third Party Claim or permit a default or consent to entry of any judgment unless the claimant (or claimants) and such party provide to such other party an unqualified release from all Liability in respect of the Third Party Claim and such settlement or compromise does not lead to the creation of a financial or other obligation on the part of the indemnified party. If the indemnifying party makes any payment on any Third Party Claim, the indemnifying party shall be subrogated, to the extent of such payment, to all rights and remedies of the indemnified party to any insurance benefits or other claims of the indemnified party with respect to such Third Party Claim.

(d)After any final decision, judgment or award shall have been rendered by a Governmental Body of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of the time in which to appeal therefrom, or a settlement shall have been consummated, or the indemnified party and the indemnifying party shall have arrived at a mutually binding agreement, in each case with respect to a Third Party Claim hereunder, the indemnified party shall forward to the indemnifying party notice of any sums due and owing by the indemnifying party pursuant to this Agreement with respect to such matter and the indemnifying party shall pay all of such remaining sums so due and owing to the indemnified party.

11.4Limitations on Indemnification for Breaches or Inaccuracies of Representations and Warranties.

(a)An indemnifying party shall not have any Liability under Section 11.2(a)(i) or Section 11.2(b)(i) hereof unless the aggregate amount of Losses incurred by the indemnified parties and indemnifiable hereunder exceeds $75,000 (the “Deductible”).

(b)Neither the Principal Shareholders (in the aggregate) nor KMG shall be required to indemnify any Person under Section 11.2(a)(i) or 11.2(b)(i) for an aggregate amount of Losses exceeding $1,500,000 (the “Cap”).

(c)Notwithstanding the foregoing, the limitations set forth in Sections 11.4(a) and 11.4(b) shall not apply to Losses based upon, arising out of, or with respect to or by reason of any inaccuracy in or breach of (i) any Fundamental Representation, or (ii) in the case of fraud or intentional misconduct.

11.5Exclusive Remedies. The parties acknowledge and agree that, except in the case of fraud or intentional misrepresentation, their sole and exclusive remedy for monetary relief with respect to any and all claims for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in Section 11.2. In furtherance of the foregoing, except in the case of fraud or intentional misrepresentation, each party to this Agreement, on behalf of itself, its Affiliates and assigns, hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted under Law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action for monetary relief with respect to any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement it may have against the other parties hereto and their Affiliates and each of their respective Representatives arising under or based upon any Law, except pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in Section 11.2.

11.6Tax Matters.

(a)Federal Income Tax Treatment. Immediately prior to and as of the Initial Effective Time, KMG and Val-Tex are each taxed as a subchapter C corporation, and the Disappearing Sub and Surviving Sub are each taxed as a disregarded entity, for federal income tax purposes. Pursuant to Revenue Ruling 2001-46, the parties hereto intend to treat the Reverse Merger and the Forward Merger as an acquisition, by KMG, of Val-Tex's assets through a single statutory merger that qualifies as a reorganization under Section 368(a)(1)(A) of the Code. Accordingly at the Final Effective Time, Val-Tex shall be treated as having merged into KMG in a reorganization under Section 368(a)(1)(A) of the Code. At and immediately following the Final Effective Time of the Merger, KMG shall be treated as a C corporation for federal income tax purposes and the Surviving Sub shall be treated as a disregarded entity for federal income tax purposes. The parties agree to report the merger consistent with this Section 11.6(a) for federal income tax purposes.

(b)Tax Indemnification. Each Principal Shareholder, jointly and severally, hereby agrees to be liable for and to indemnify and hold the KMG Indemnified Parties harmless from and against, and pay to the KMG Indemnified Parties the amount of, any and all Losses respect of (i) all Taxes of Val-Tex (A) for any taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date, and (B) for the portion of any Straddle Period ending at the close of business on the Closing Date (determined as provided in Section 11.6(d)); (ii) any and all Taxes imposed on any member of a consolidated, combined or unitary group of which Val-Tex is or was a member on or prior to the Closing Date, by reason of the Liability of Val-Tex, pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-6(a) (or any predecessor or successor thereof or any analogous or

similar provision under state, local or foreign Law); (iii) the failure of any of the representations and warranties contained in Section 5.10 to be true and correct in all respects (determined without regard to any qualification related to materiality contained therein) or the failure to perform any covenant contained in this Agreement with respect to Taxes; (iv) any failure by such Principal Shareholder to timely pay any and all Taxes required to be borne by such Principal Shareholder pursuant to Section 11.6(e).

(c)Filing of Tax Returns; Payment of Taxes.

(i)Val-Tex shall timely file all Returns required to be filed by it that are due on or prior to the Closing Date and shall pay or cause to be timely paid all Taxes shown due thereon. All Tax Returns described in this Section 11.6(b)(i) shall be prepared in a manner consistent with prior practice.

(ii)The Shareholders’ Representative shall cause to be prepared and KMG shall timely file all Tax Returns required to be filed by Val-Tex for all periods that end on or before the Closing Date and are due after the Closing Date and, subject to the right to payment from the Principal Shareholders under Section 11.6(c)(iii), pay or cause to be paid by the Shareholders’ Representative all Taxes shown due thereon. Shareholders’ Representative shall provide KMG with copies of such completed Tax Returns at least twenty days prior to the due date for filing thereof, along with supporting workpapers, for KMG’s review and approval. Shareholders’ Representative and KMG shall attempt in good faith to resolve any disagreements regarding such Tax Returns prior to the due date for filing. In the event that Shareholders’ Representative and KMG are unable to resolve any dispute with respect to such Tax Return at least ten (10) days prior to the due date for filing, such dispute shall be resolved pursuant to Section 11.6(g), which resolution shall be binding on the parties.

(iii)Not later than ten days prior to the due date for the payment of Taxes on any Tax Returns which KMG has the responsibility to cause to be filed pursuant to Section 11.6(b)(ii), the Shareholders’ Representative shall pay to KMG the amount of Taxes, as reasonably determined by KMG, owed by Val-Tex and to the extent such amounts is not paid by the Shareholders’ Representative, the Principal Shareholders pursuant to the provisions of Section 11.6(a) shall pay such amount. No payment pursuant to this Section 11.6(b)(iii) shall excuse either Principal Shareholder from its indemnification obligations pursuant to Section 11.6(a) if the amount of Taxes as ultimately determined (on audit or otherwise) for the periods covered by such Tax Returns exceeds the amount paid by either the Shareholders’ Representative or the Principal Shareholder’s payment under this Section 11.6(b)(iii).

(iv)In the event it is determined that Val-Tex has over-paid the Taxes owed by the Principal Shareholders under Section 11.6(b), then, not later than 30 days after the filing of the Tax Return for that period, KMG shall pay to the Shareholders’ Representative Fund the amount of such over payment.

(d)Straddle Period Tax Allocation. Val-Tex will, unless prohibited by applicable Law, close the taxable period of Val-Tex as of the close of business on the Closing

Date. If applicable Law does not permit Val-Tex to close its taxable year on the Closing Date or in any case in which a Tax is assessed with respect to a taxable period which includes the Closing Date (but does not begin or end on that day) (a “Straddle Period”), the Taxes, if any, attributable to a Straddle Period shall be allocated (i) to the Principal Shareholders for the period up to and including the close of business on the Closing Date, and (ii) to KMG for the period subsequent to the Closing Date. Any allocation of income or deductions required to determine any Taxes attributable to a Straddle Period shall be made by means of a closing of the books and records of Val-Tex as of the close of the Closing Date, provided that exemptions, allowances or deductions that are calculated on an annual basis (including, but not limited to, depreciation and amortization deductions) shall be allocated between the period ending on the Closing Date and the period after the Closing Date in proportion to the number of days in each such period.

(e)Tax Audits.

(i)If notice of any Legal Proceeding with respect to Taxes of Val-Tex (a “Tax Claim”) shall be received by either party for which the other party may reasonably be expected to be liable pursuant to Section 11.6(a), the notified party shall notify such other party in writing of such Tax Claim; provided, that the failure of the notified party to give the other party notice as provided herein shall not relieve such failing party of its obligations under this Section 11.6 except to the extent that the other party is actually and materially prejudiced thereby.

(ii)KMG shall have the right, at the expense of the Principal Shareholders to the extent such Tax Claim is subject to indemnification by the Principal Shareholders pursuant to Section 11.6(a) hereof, to represent the interests of Val-Tex in any Tax Claim, provided, that with respect to a Tax Claim relating exclusively to taxable periods ending on or before the Closing Date, KMG shall not settle such claim without the consent of the Principal Shareholders, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(f)Transfer Taxes. The Principal Shareholders shall be liable for and shall pay (and shall indemnify and hold harmless the KMG Indemnified Parties against) all sales, use, stamp, documentary, filing, recording, transfer or similar fees or Taxes or governmental charges as levied by any Governmental Body including any interest and penalties) in connection with the Transactions.

(g)Disputes. Any dispute as to any matter covered hereby shall be resolved by the Independent Accounting Firm. The fees and expenses of such accounting firm shall be borne equally by the Principal Shareholders, on the one hand, and KMG on the other. If any dispute with respect to a Tax Return is not resolved prior to the due date of such Tax Return, such Tax Return shall be filed in the manner which the party responsible for preparing such Tax Return deems correct.

(h)Time Limits. Any claim for indemnity under this Section 11.6 may be made at any time prior to sixty (60) days after the expiration of the applicable Tax statute of limitations with respect to the relevant taxable period (including all periods of extension, whether automatic or permissive).

(i)Amendment. Neither KMG nor any Affiliate of KMG shall change or rescind any Tax election or amend or otherwise modify any Tax Return relating in whole or in part to Val-Tex with respect to any taxable year ending on or before the Closing Date without the prior written consent of Shareholder’s Representative, which consent shall not be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed.

(j)Mutual Cooperation. KMG and Shareholder’s Representative will cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns and any audit or other action with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation will include the retention and (upon the other party’s request) the provision of records and information reasonably relevant to any such audit or action and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. KMG will retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to Val-Tex relating to any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until expiration of the statute of limitations of the respective taxable periods and to give the Shareholder’s Representative written notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any such books and records and, if the Shareholder’s Representative so requests, KMG shall allow the Shareholder’s Representative to take possession of such books and records prior to destroying or discarding them. KMG and Shareholder’s Representative further agree, upon request, to use their commercially reasonable best efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any Governmental Body 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 by this Agreement).

(k)Exclusivity. The indemnification provided for in this Section 11.6 shall be the sole remedy for any claim in respect of Taxes, including any claim arising out of or relating to a breach of Section 5.10. In the event of a conflict between the provisions of this Section 11.6, on the one hand, and the provisions of Sections 11.1 through 11.4, on the other, the provisions of this Section 11.6 shall control.

11.7Tax Treatment of Indemnity Payments. To the extent permitted by Law, Val-Tex and KMG agree to treat any indemnity payment made pursuant to this Article XI as an adjustment to the Reverse Merger Consideration for all Tax purposes.
