ARTICLE 2 - PURCHASE PRICE AND ADJUSTMENT

2.1 Purchase Price. Upon and subject to the terms herein, Buyer (i) will pay to Sellers as consideration for the Acquired Equity Interests the amount of $230,000,000 (the “Base Cash Consideration”), as such amount is adjusted pursuant to the terms herein, (ii) will pay or issue each Earnout Amount, if earned by Sellers pursuant to Section 2.5, and (iii) will issue the Closing Stock Consideration pursuant to Section 2.3(b) (the sum of the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) is the “Purchase Price”).

2.2 Calculation of Estimated Closing Payment. On or before the third Business Day before the Closing Date, the Representative will deliver to Buyer a written (a) statement in reasonable detail containing the Representative’s reasonable estimate of (1) Net Working Capital (“Estimated Net Working Capital”), Closing Cash (“Estimated Closing Cash”), Closing Indebtedness (“Estimated Closing Indebtedness”), Seller Transaction Expenses (“Estimated Seller Transaction Expenses”), and Pre-Closing Taxes (“Estimated Taxes Payable”), and (2) the “Estimated Cash Consideration,” which will equal the Base Cash Consideration plus (A) the amount, if any, by which Estimated Net Working Capital exceeds the Upper Collar Amount, minus (B) the amount, if any, by which the Lower Collar Amount exceeds Estimated Net Working Capital, plus (C) Estimated Closing Cash, minus (D) Estimated Closing Indebtedness, minus (E) Estimated Seller Transaction Expenses, minus (F) Estimated Taxes Payable, and (b) schedule setting forth (x) the amount to be received by each Seller pursuant to Section 2.3(a)(vi), and (y) the wire transfer instructions for each Seller that are to be used by Buyer when making the payments required by Section 2.3(a)(vi) (the “Instruction Schedule”). If Buyer reasonably objects to the Representative’s calculation of the Estimated Closing Payment (or any component thereof), the Representative and Buyer will mutually determine the Estimated Closing Payment, Estimated Net Working Capital, Estimated Closing Cash, Estimated Closing Indebtedness and Estimated Seller Transaction Expenses before Closing.

2.3 Closing Payments and Issuances.

(a) Upon and subject to the terms herein, at Closing, Buyer will pay the Estimated Cash Consideration, the Estimated Closing Indebtedness that is subject to a Payoff and Release Letter, and the Estimated Seller Transaction Expenses (the sum of such calculation being the “Closing Payment”) as follows:

(i) Buyer will deposit directly into escrow with the Escrow Agent the amount of $2,000,000 (the “Adjustment Escrow Amount”), to be held by the Escrow Agent pursuant to the terms hereof and the terms of an Escrow Agreement in substantially the form in Exhibit 2.3(a)(i) (the “Escrow Agreement”);

(ii) Buyer, on the applicable Acquired Company’s behalf, will pay the payoff amount (if any) stated in each Payoff and Release Letter directly to each applicable third party, as stated in such Payoff and Release Letter;

(iii) Buyer, on each Acquired Company’s and each Seller’s behalf, will pay all remaining Seller Transaction Expenses (except for those post-Closing obligations under the ETU Plan and related Taxes, which if owed will be paid post-Closing pursuant to Section 2.5(f) and the terms of the ETU Plan), by wire transfer of immediately available funds directly to the accounts that Sellers designate in writing before the Closing Date (provided however, that any Seller Transaction Expense to be paid to any employee of the Acquired Companies, including payments at Closing related to the ETU Plan and the Closing Payment Bonuses, shall be paid to Xxxxxxxx at Closing and deposited in Xxxxxxxx’x payroll account (along with the employer’s portion

of Taxes and expenses in connection with such amount) and the amount payable to such employee (net of such Taxes) shall be paid to such employee no later than the second payroll occurring after Closing or with respect any payments under the ETU Plan, within the timing set forth in the ETU Plan; provided, further, that the payments due under the ETU Plan at Closing and the Closing Payment Bonuses shall have been determined prior to the Closing and set forth in the Instruction Schedule);

(iv) Buyer, on each Sellers’ behalf, will pay the amount of $150,000 (the “Representative Expense Amount”) to the Representative pursuant to wire transfer instructions provided by the Representative to Buyer no less than three Business Days prior to Closing;

(v) [Intentionally Omitted]; and

(vi) after making the payments and reductions in the preceding clauses of this Section 2.3(a), Buyer will, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts designated in the Instruction Schedule with respect to each Seller, pay to each Seller its share of the remaining balance of the Closing Payment as instructed by the Representative as set forth in the Instruction Schedule.

(b) Upon and subject to the terms herein, at Closing, Buyer will issue and deliver to each Seller, in such Seller’s name, in book entry, such Seller’s Pro Rata Share of the Closing Stock Consideration, free and clear of all Encumbrances (other than those arising under securities Laws and pursuant to the Equity Agreements).

(c) Further, each Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees that, in connection with certain allocations agreed to by and among the Sellers with respect to the receipt of certain post-Closing payments that may be due Sellers under Section 2.5, his or its share of the remaining balance of the Closing Payment payable pursuant to Section 2.3(a)(vi) may not equate to such Seller’s Pro Rata Share of his or its ownership in an Acquired Company, and further, that Buyer is entitled to rely and shall pay the amount to each Seller that is due pursuant to Section 2.3(a)(vi) as directed by the Representative on the Instruction Schedule. Sellers hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waive, release and forever discharges Buyer and its Affiliates from any and all rights, claims, debts, causes of action, Proceedings, obligations, Losses and other Liabilities of any nature or kind, whether direct or indirect, known or unknown, matured or contingent, accrued or unaccrued, liquidated or unliquidated or due or to become due, including for direct, indirect, compensatory, special, incidental or punitive damages, equitable relief or otherwise related to such payment, and further, Sellers will jointly and severally indemnify, defend and hold harmless Buyer from and against all Losses of Buyer and each of Buyer’s Affiliates arising out of, relating to or resulting therefrom.

2.4 Closing Payment Adjustment. Each Seller and Buyer will cooperate with each other and each other’s representatives in all reasonable respects in connection with the matters in this Article 2, including giving each other and such representatives reasonable access at reasonable times to the applicable personnel, properties, books and records of each Acquired Company for such matters. The final determination of Net Working Capital, Closing Cash, Closing Indebtedness, Seller Transaction Expenses, and Pre-Closing Taxes pursuant to this Section 2.4 is “Final Net Working Capital,” “Final Closing Cash,” “Final Closing Indebtedness,” “Final Seller Transaction Expenses,” and “Final Taxes Payable.”

(a) Buyer’s Preparation of the Statement. On or before the 90th day after the Closing Date, Buyer will prepare and deliver to the Representative a statement (the “Statement”) stating,

in reasonable detail, Buyer’s determination of the actual Net Working Capital, Closing Cash, Closing Indebtedness, Seller Transaction Expenses, and Pre-Closing Taxes.

(b) Sellers’ Response to the Statement. The Net Working Capital, Closing Cash, Closing Indebtedness, Seller Transaction Expenses, and Pre-Closing Taxes in the Statement will become final and binding upon the Parties (and become Final Net Working Capital, Final Closing Cash, Final Closing Indebtedness, Final Seller Transaction Expenses, and Final Taxes Payable, respectively) 45 days after Buyer gives the Statement to the Representative, unless the Representative gives written notice, in reasonable detail, of disagreement therewith to Buyer at or before the end of such 45-day period (a “Notice of Disagreement”). If the Representative gives a Notice of Disagreement at or before the end of such 45-day period, then Final Net Working Capital, Final Closing Cash, Final Closing Indebtedness, Final Seller Transaction Expenses, and Final Taxes Payable (each as finally determined under the following clause (b)(1) or (b)(2)) will become final and binding on the Parties upon the earlier of (1) the date the Representative and Buyer resolve in writing the last of the differences they have with respect to the determination of Final Net Working Capital, Final Closing Cash, Final Closing Indebtedness, Final Seller Transaction Expenses, and Final Taxes Payable or (2) the date the last of such differences is finally resolved in writing by the Arbitrator pursuant to Section 2.4(c).

(c) Resolving Matters in Disagreement. During the 30-day period after a Notice of Disagreement is given, the Representative and Buyer will attempt to resolve in writing and through one or more meetings any differences that they have regarding any item in such Notice of Disagreement. If, at the end of such 30-day period, the Representative and Buyer have not reached agreement on all such differences, then either the Representative or Buyer may require that the items that remain in dispute be promptly submitted to a nationally recognized public accounting firm in the United States agreed upon by the Representative and Buyer in writing (the “Arbitrator”) for review and resolution; provided that the Arbitrator will not be an accounting firm used by any Party (or any Affiliate of any of them) within the preceding two years for audit, valuation or Income Tax purposes. If the Representative and Buyer cannot agree upon an Arbitrator within 10 Business Days after first attempting to do so, then the Arbitrator will be selected by lot from a list of four qualified potential Arbitrators remaining after the Representative nominates three, Buyer nominates three, and the Representative and Buyer each eliminate one such potential Arbitrator from the other’s nominations (if the Representative and Buyer are unable to engage such proposed Arbitrator within 10 days thereafter, including if such proposed Arbitrator is unwilling to agree to such engagement, then the foregoing selection process will repeat until an Arbitrator is so engaged). The Arbitrator will determine procedures for such arbitration, subject to the terms hereof. The Arbitrator will only consider the items that remain in dispute. The Arbitrator’s engagement will state that the Arbitrator will render a decision resolving such items in dispute within 30 days after completion of submissions to the Arbitrator. The Arbitrator will determine Final Net Working Capital, Final Closing Cash, Final Closing Indebtedness, Final Seller Transaction Expenses, and Final Taxes Payable solely based on submissions made by the Representative and Buyer consistent with the terms hereof (and not by independent review). The Arbitrator will not assign a value to any item that is greater than the greater value for such item claimed by the Representative or Buyer or less than the lesser value for such item claimed by the Representative or Buyer. Buyer will not modify the Statement in any manner adverse to Sellers (including by raising any new item not reflected in the Statement). The Representative will not modify the Notice of Disagreement in any manner adverse to Buyer (including by raising any new item not reflected in the Notice of Disagreement). Any item or amount in, or omitted from, the Statement that the Representative does not disagree with in the Notice of Disagreement will be final and binding on the Parties in the manner stated in, or omitted from, the Statement.

(d) Allocation of Fees and Expenses. The Non-Prevailing Party in such arbitration will pay its own and its Affiliates’ fees and expenses with respect to such arbitration and will also pay a

fraction of the sum of (1) the fees and expenses of the Arbitrator plus (2) the reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) of the Prevailing Party and its Affiliates with respect to such arbitration. Such fraction will be as follows: (A) its numerator will be an amount equal to the difference between the Non-Prevailing Party’s determination of the items in dispute (in the aggregate as submitted to the Arbitrator) and the Arbitrator’s determination of such items; and (B) its denominator will be an amount equal to the difference between the Representative’s and Buyer’s respective determinations of such items (in the aggregate and as submitted to the Arbitrator). The Prevailing Party will pay the remainder of the fees and expenses of the Arbitrator and of its own and its Affiliates’ fees and expenses. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Arbitrator’s determination of such items in dispute is exactly midway between the Representative’s and Buyer’s determination of such items, then the Representative and Buyer each will pay (i) one-half of the fees and expenses of the Arbitrator and (ii) its own and its Affiliates’ fees and expenses. The Representative, on the one hand, or Buyer, on the other hand, is the “Prevailing Party” if the Arbitrator’s determination of such items is closer to such Party’s determination of such items than it is to the other Party’s determination of such items (in each case in the aggregate and as submitted to the Arbitrator). The Representative, on the one hand, or Buyer, on the other hand, is the “Non-Prevailing Party” if the other is the Prevailing Party.

(e) Adjustment to Closing Payment. The “Final Cash Consideration” will be the Base Cash Consideration plus (1) the amount, if any, by which Final Net Working Capital exceeds the Upper Collar Amount, minus (2) the amount, if any, by which the Lower Collar Amount exceeds Final Net Working Capital, plus (3) Final Closing Cash, minus (4) Final Closing Indebtedness, minus (5) Final Seller Transaction Expenses, minus (6) Final Taxes Payable.

(f) Reconciliation Payment. Within five Business Days after Final Net Working Capital, Final Closing Cash, Final Closing Indebtedness, Final Seller Transaction Expenses, and Final Taxes Payable becomes final and binding on the Parties, the following will occur (with the payments in this Section below being made by wire transfer of immediately available funds, without interest):

(1) if the Estimated Cash Consideration is less than the Final Cash Consideration, then (A) Buyer will pay to Sellers in accordance with their Pro Rata Share the amount of such difference and (B) the Parties will cause all of the Adjustment Escrow Amount to be disbursed to Sellers in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares;

(2) if the Estimated Cash Consideration equals the Final Cash Consideration, then the Parties will cause all of the Adjustment Escrow Amount to be disbursed to Sellers in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares; or

(3) if the Estimated Cash Consideration exceeds the Final Cash Consideration, then Sellers will pay to Buyer the amount of such excess, as follows: (A) the Parties will cause disbursement of the Adjustment Escrow Amount to Buyer, to the extent necessary to pay the amount of such excess, and the Parties will cause disbursement of any (if any) balance of the Adjustment Escrow Amount remaining thereafter to Sellers in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares; and (B) if the amount disbursed to Buyer under such clause (f)(3)(A) is insufficient to pay to Buyer the full amount of such excess, then each Seller will pay its Pro Rata Share of the remaining amount so owed to Buyer.

2.5 Earnouts.

(a) If EBITDA for the 6-month period beginning on July 1, 2021 and ending on December 31, 2021 (the “EBITDA Measurement Period”) is greater than or equal to the Baseline EBITDA Amount, Sellers will be entitled to EBITDA Stock Consideration in an amount equal to the

applicable amount set forth in Exhibit 2.5(a) (such amount being the “EBITDA Earnout Amount”), provided that (i) the EBITDA Earnout Amount will never be less than $0 or greater than $15,000,000 of EBITDA Stock Consideration, and (ii) between each Tier greater than I and less than III, the EBITDA Earnout Amount will be proportionately decreased based on the amount by which EBITDA is less than Tier III, but greater than Tier II, or is less than Tier II, but greater than Tier I, as the case may be.

(b) If Gross Profit for the 12-month period beginning on January 1, 2022 and ending on December 31, 2022 (the “First GP Measurement Period”) is greater than the Baseline FY 2022 Gross Profit Amount, Sellers will be entitled to additional cash consideration in an amount equal to the applicable amount set forth in Exhibit 2.5(b) (such amount being the “First GP Earnout Amount”), provided that (i) the First GP Earnout Amount will never be less than $0 or greater than $25,000,000, and (ii) between each Tier greater than I and less than IV, the First GP Earnout Amount will be proportionately decreased based on the amount by which Gross Profit is less than Tier IV, but greater than Tier III, is less than Tier III, but greater than Tier II, or is less than Tier II, but greater than Tier I, as the case may be.

(c) If Gross Profit for the 12-month period beginning on January 1, 2023 and ending on December 31, 2023 (the “Second GP Measurement Period”) is greater than the Baseline FY 2023 Gross Profit Amount, Sellers will be entitled to additional cash consideration in an amount equal to the applicable amount set forth in Exhibit 2.5(c) (such amount being the “Second GP Earnout Amount”), provided that (i) the Second GP Earnout Amount will never be less than $0 or greater than $25,000,000, and (ii) between each Tier greater than I and less than IV, the Second GP Earnout Amount will be proportionately decreased based on the amount by which Gross Profit is less than Tier IV, but greater than Tier III, is less than Tier III, but greater than Tier II, or is less than Tier II, but greater than Tier I, as the case may be; and provided, further, that (iii) if Gross Profit for the Second GP Measurement Period is greater than the FY 2023 Tier IV Gross Profit Amount, and Gross Profit for the First GP Measurement Period was less than the FY 2022 Tier IV Gross Profit Amount, then Sellers will be eligible to receive additional cash consideration in an amount calculated by (A) adding, dollar for dollar, the amount by which Gross Profit for the Second GP Measurement Period exceeded the FY 2023 Tier IV Gross Profit Amount to the Gross Profit amount from the First GP Measurement Period (such result, the “First GP Catch-up Gross Profit Amount”); (B) determining the amount of First GP Earnout Amount that would have been due to Sellers under Section 2.5(b) based on the First GP Catch-up Gross Profit Amount; and (C) subtracting the First GP Earnout Amount from the amount determined in (B) (such amount, the “First GP Earnout Catch-up Amount”); and provided, further, that (iv) if (A) Gross Profit for the First GP Measurement Period is greater than the FY 2022 Tier IV Gross Profit Amount , (B) Gross Profit for the Second GP Measurement Period is greater than the Second GP Earnout Hurdle Amount, but less than the FY 2023 Tier IV Gross Profit Amount, and (C) aggregate Gross Profit for the First GP Measurement Period and the Second GP Measurement Period is at least the Aggregate Gross Profit Hurdle Amount, then Sellers will be eligible to receive additional cash consideration in an amount calculated by (X) adding, dollar for dollar, the amount by which Gross Profit for the First GP Measurement Period exceeded the FY 2022 Tier IV Gross Profit Amount to the Gross Profit Amount from the Second GP Measurement Period (such result, the “Second GP Earnout Catch-up Gross Profit Amount”); (Y) determining the amount of Second GP Earnout Amount that would have been due to Sellers under this Section 2.5(c) based on the Second GP Catch-up Gross Profit Amount; and (Z) subtracting the Second GP Earnout Amount from the amount determined in (Y) (such amount, the “Second GP Earnout Catch-up Amount”), provided, however, that the Second GP Earnout Catch-up Amount, if due in accordance with the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in this Section 2.5(c), will not exceed the lesser of (notwithstanding anything that would indicate to contrary) (1) $6,000,000 or (2) the amount that when added to the Second GP Earnout Amount, equals $25,000,000 (stated differently, the sum of the Second

GP Earnout Catch-up Amount and the Second GP Earnout Amount will never be greater than $25,000,000). Further notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the First GP Earnout Catch-up Amount will never be less than $0 or greater than $25,000,000; the Second GP Earnout Catch-up Amount will never be less than $0 or greater than $6,000,000; and the sum of the First GP Earnout Amount, plus the Second GP Earnout Amount, plus the First GP Earnout Catch-up Amount (if any), plus the Second GP Earnout Catch-up Amount (if any), will never be greater than $50,000,000.

(d) On or before the 60th day after the end of each Measurement Period, Buyer will prepare and deliver to the Representative a statement (each an “Earnout Statement”) stating, in reasonable detail, Buyer’s determination of the Applicable Financial Calculations for the most recently completed Measurement Period and calculation of the Earnout Amount, if any. The Applicable Financial Calculations for the Measurement Period and the Earnout Amount (if any), in each Earnout Statement will become final and binding upon the Parties 45 days after Buyer gives each Earnout Statement to the Representative, unless the Representative gives written notice, in reasonable detail, of disagreement therewith to Buyer at or before the end of such 45-day period (a “Notice of Earnout Disagreement”). If the Representative gives a Notice of Earnout Disagreement at or before the end of such 45-day period, then the Applicable Financial Calculations for the Measurement Period and the Earnout Amount (if any) (as finally determined under the following clause (b)(1) or (b)(2)) will become final and binding on the Parties upon the earlier of (1) the date the Representative and Buyer resolve in writing the last of the differences they have with respect to the determination of the Applicable Financial Calculations for the Measurement Period and the Earnout Amount (if any), or (2) the date the last of such differences is finally resolved in writing by the Arbitrator pursuant to Section 2.5(c).

(e) During the 30-day period after a Notice of Earnout Disagreement is given, the Representative and Buyer will attempt to resolve in writing any differences that they have regarding any item in such Notice of Earnout Disagreement. If, at the end of such 30-day period, the Representative and Buyer have not reached agreement on all such differences, then either the Representative or Buyer may require that the items that remain in dispute be promptly submitted to the Arbitrator for review and resolution. The Arbitrator will determine procedures for such arbitration, subject to the terms hereof. The Arbitrator will only consider the items that remain in dispute. The Arbitrator’s engagement will state that the Arbitrator will render a decision resolving such items in dispute within 30 days after completion of submissions to the Arbitrator. The Arbitrator will determine the Applicable Financial Calculations for the Measurement Period and the Earnout Amount (if any) solely based on submissions made by the Representative and Buyer consistent with the terms hereof (and not by independent review). The Arbitrator will not assign a value to any item that is greater than the greater value for such item claimed by the Representative or Buyer or less than the lesser value for such item claimed by the Representative or Buyer. The fees and expenses of the Arbitrator will be allocated in accordance with Section 2.4(d).

(f) If Sellers are entitled to the EBITDA Earnout Amount, within thirty days after EBITDA for the EBITDA Measurement Period and the EBITDA Earnout Amount (if any) become final and binding on the Parties, Buyer will issue and deliver to each Seller, such Seller’s Pro Rata Share (net of all applicable ETU Earnout Payment Amounts), in the name of such Seller, in book entry, the EBITDA Stock Consideration, free and clear of all Encumbrances (other than those arising under securities Laws and pursuant to the Equity Agreements). If Sellers are entitled to the First GP Earnout Amount, the Second GP Earnout Amount, the First GP Earnout Catch-up Amount or the Second GP Earnout Catch-up Amount, within thirty days after Gross Profit for the applicable Measurement Period and the Earnout Amount (if any) become final and binding on the Parties, Buyer will pay to Falcon Family only (net of all applicable ETU Earnout Payment Amounts), and not to each Seller its Pro Rata Share, the amount of the First GP Earnout Amount, the Second GP Earnout Amount or GP Earnout Catch-up Amount, as applicable, pursuant to wire transfer instructions received from Falcon Family. Buyer will cause Xxxxxxxx

to pay the amount of any EBITDA Earnout Amount payments, First GP Earnout Amount payments, Second GP Earnout Amount payment, First GP Earnout Catch-up Amount payments or Second GP Earnout Catch-up Amount payments due to Xxxxxxxx employee ETU Plan participants under the terms of the ETU Plan (each, plus all applicable Taxes and expenses, an “ETU Earnout Payment Amount” and collectively, the “ETU Earnout Payment Amounts”) to such ETU Plan participant (net of Taxes and withholdings) through Xxxxxxxx payroll pursuant to the terms of the ETU Plan. All ETU Earnout Payment Amounts will be paid by Xxxxxxxx to such participants in cash. The parties acknowledge and agree that payments due to ETU Plan participants together with all applicable employment taxes and expenses with respect to such payments will result in a corresponding dollar for dollar reduction in the amount of payments payable to the Sellers under this Section 2.5.

(g) Each Seller acknowledges and agrees that (1) the sole and exclusive right of such Seller under this Section 2.5 will be to receive the Earnout Amount, if Xxxxxxxx actually achieves the requisite levels of the Applicable Financial Calculations for the applicable Measurement Periods, (2) Buyer is not under any obligation to provide any specific level of investment or financial assistance to any Acquired Company or, subject to the requirements of Section 2.5(h), to undertake any specific actions (or to refrain from taking any specific actions) with respect to the operation of any Acquired Company, and (3) Buyer is not representing or warranting that any specific level of EBITDA or Gross Profit will be achieved nor, except as set forth in Section 2.5(h), will Sellers have any claims against Buyer arising from the Acquired Companies’ failure to meet for any reason any specific level of EBITDA or Gross Profit.

At or before Closing, at Sellers’ expense, Sellers will obtain liability insurance covering acts or omissions occurring before the Effective Time of such managers or officers, under a six-year tail insurance policy approved in advance by Buyer (the “D&O Tail Policy”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall any obligation of Buyer or any Acquired Company pursuant to this Section 5.6 exceed the coverage provided by the D&O Tail Policy.

5.7 Certain Tax Matters.

Except to the extent they were taken into account in Estimated Taxes Payable on a full-dollar basis, Sellers will satisfy (or cause to be satisfied) in full when due all Taxes with respect to (1) each Acquired Company with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period, (2) any member of an affiliated, consolidated, combined or unitary group of which any Acquired Company (or any predecessor thereto) is or was a member before Closing to which one or more entities other than an Acquired Company is or was also a member, including Taxes pursuant to Treasury Regulations section 1.1502-6 or any similar Applicable Law; and (3) any Person (other than an Acquired Company) imposed on an Acquired Company for any period as a transferee or successor with respect to a transaction occurring on or before the Closing Date, by Applicable Law, Contract or otherwise (all of such Taxes being the “Pre-Closing Taxes”). Buyer will satisfy (or cause to be satisfied) in full when due all Tax Liabilities of each Acquired Company with respect to any period that is not a Pre-Closing Tax Period. If Buyer is required under Section 5.7(b) to file a Return that involves Pre-Closing Taxes, then no

later than 10 Business Days before the filing of any such Return, Sellers (jointly and severally) will pay to Buyer an amount equal to the amount of Taxes shown due on such Return for which Sellers are obligated with respect to such Return. Sellers will jointly and severally indemnify, defend and hold harmless Buyer from and against all Losses of Buyer and each of Buyer’s Affiliates arising out of, relating to or resulting from, directly or indirectly, (i) any Pre-Closing Taxes, except to the extent such Pre-Closing Taxes were taken into account in Final Taxes Payable on full-dollar basis, (ii) the ETU Plan, in the form and content in existence at and prior to the Closing, and pre-Closing actions taken with respect to the ETU Plan, failing to meet any requirements of Section 409A of the Code and the applicable Treasury Regulations, or (iii) the ownership, operations, assets and Liabilities of Xxxxxxxx DISC Corporation.

(b) Filing Responsibility. The Representative shall, at the Representative’s expense, prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed all Income Tax Returns for the Acquired Companies for all taxable periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date that are due after the Closing Date (such Tax Returns, “Pre-Closing Tax Returns”). All such Pre-Closing Tax Returns shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past practice of the Acquired Companies, to the extent such past practice complies with applicable Law. No later than 30 days prior to the due date (including extensions) for filing such Tax Returns, the Representative shall deliver the Tax Returns to Buyer for its review and comment. The Representative shall make all such changes as are reasonably requested by Buyer, and shall deliver the Tax Returns, completed as approved by Buyer and duly executed by an authorized Person, to Buyer no later than 10 days prior to the due date (including extensions) for filing such Tax Returns. The Acquired Companies shall file or cause to be filed all such Tax Returns on or prior to the due date (including extensions). Buyer will prepare and timely file (or cause to be prepared and timely filed) all Returns required to be filed by any Acquired Company that are required to be filed after the Closing Date that are not Pre-Closing Tax Returns. If any such Return (whether original or amended) prepared (or caused to be prepared) by Buyer relates to any Pre-Closing Tax Period, Buyer will give to the Representative a copy of such Return as soon as practicable after the preparation, but before the filing, thereof for the Representatives’ review and comment. Buyer will consider in good faith any changes to such Return that are reasonably requested by the Representative.

(c) Tax Proceedings. After the Closing, Sellers shall notify Buyer in writing of any Tax Proceeding relating to the Company, notice of which is received by any Seller or any of their Affiliates with respect to any taxable period. Notices required to be given by or to Buyer shall contain factual information describing the asserted Tax liability in reasonable detail and shall include copies of any notice or other document received from any Tax authority in respect of any such asserted Tax liability. In the case of a Tax Proceeding that relates to any Pre-Closing Tax Period that is not part of a Straddle Period, Buyer shall conduct and defend such Tax Proceeding, provided the Company and Sellers shall have the right to participate (at their own expense) in any such Tax Proceeding. The Sellers’ or Buyer’s right to participate shall include the right to receive copies of all correspondence from any Tax authority relating to such Tax Proceeding, attend meetings and review and comment on submissions relating to any such Tax proceeding. The Company or Buyer shall conduct and defend any Tax Proceeding that relates to a Straddle Period. Representative may participate at its own expense.

(d) Straddle Periods. For purposes of this Agreement, the portion of Tax with respect to the income, property or operations of any Acquired Company that is attributable to any Straddle Period will be apportioned between the portion of the Straddle Period that extends before the Closing Date through the Closing Date (the “Pre-Closing Straddle Period”) and the portion of the Straddle Period that extends from the day after the Closing Date to the end of the Straddle Period in accordance with this Section 5.7(d). The portion of such Tax attributable to the Pre-Closing Straddle Period will (1) in the case of any Tax other than Income Taxes, sales or use Taxes, value-added Taxes, employment

Taxes or similar withholding Taxes, be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire Taxable period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the Pre-Closing Straddle Period and denominator of which is the number of days in the Straddle Period, and (2) in the case of any Income Taxes, sales or use Taxes, value-added Taxes, employment Taxes or withholding Taxes, be deemed equal to the amount that would be payable if the Straddle Period ended on and included the Closing Date. To the extent that any Tax for a Straddle Period is based on the greater of a Tax on net income, on the one hand, and a Tax measured by net worth or some other basis not otherwise measured by income, on the other hand, the portion of such Tax related to the Pre-Closing Straddle Period will be determined based on the foregoing and based on the manner in which the actual Tax Liability for the entire Straddle Period is determined.

(e) Transfer Taxes. Notwithstanding Section 5.7(a), Buyer will pay all Transfer Taxes, and Sellers and Buyer will cooperate in timely making all filings, returns, reports and forms as may be required to comply with the provisions of Applicable Law relating thereto.

(f) Tax-Sharing Agreements. Sellers will terminate all Tax-sharing agreements and similar arrangements with respect to any Acquired Company before or as of the Closing Date to the extent required to cause each Acquired Company not to be bound therefor or have any Liability thereunder after the Effective Time.

(g) Push Out Election. The Parties shall cause each Acquired Companies to effect a “push out” election under Section 6226 of the Code (and similar state and local Tax Applicable Laws) with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period.

5.8 Settlement of Affiliate Accounts; Termination of Certain Contracts; Seller Transaction Expenses.

(a) Prior to and through the Closing, Sellers will cause (a) all amounts owed immediately before Closing between any Acquired Company, on the one hand, and any Related Person (other than any Acquired Company), on the other hand, to be paid in full before or at Closing, other than amounts owed to any Related Person who is an employee of an Acquired Company and such amounts is wages or benefits owed to such Related Person in the Ordinary Course of Business and do not constitute a Seller Transaction Expense, and (b) all Contracts between any Acquired Company, on the one hand, and any Related Person (other than any Acquired Company), on the other hand, to be terminated without any Liability to any party thereto, other than any employment agreement set forth on Schedule 3.8(a)(1) between any Related Person who is an employee of an Acquired Company.

(b) To the extent that any Seller Transaction Expense is not paid at Closing pursuant to Section 2.3(a)(iii) and is not taken into account in determining Final Seller Transaction Expenses, Sellers shall jointly and severally pay such Seller Transaction Expense when due.
