Buyer and Seller shall first use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve such dispute between themselves. If any such disagreement is resolved by mutual written agreement between Seller and Buyer within thirty (30) days after Buyer’s receipt of the Notice of Disagreement, that agreement shall be binding upon the Parties, and the Preliminary Statement, with such changes, if any, as are so mutually agreed, shall become the “Final Statement.”

Each of the Parties represents to the others that such Party has no current or contemplated business relationship with the Independent Firm. In accordance with §3.3.2, the resolution of such disagreement and the Independent Firm’s calculations of the matter in disagreement shall be final and binding upon the Parties and shall, together with those aspects of the Preliminary Statement as to which no objection was made, be the “Final Statement.”

The fees and expenses of the Independent Firm in connection with the resolution of disputes pursuant to this §3.3.3 shall be paid by (A) Seller, if Buyer’s calculation of the portion of the Preliminary Statement in dispute is closer to the Independent Firm’s determination than Seller’s calculation thereof, (B) by Buyer, if the reverse is true or (C) except as provided in clauses (A) or (B) above, equally by Seller and Buyer.

(c) Buyer shall grant Seller and its Representatives reasonable access to the Books and Records of the Company and its relevant personnel to allow each of them to make evaluations under this §3.3.

3.3.4 UNDERPAYMENT. If the Base Purchase Price as reflected in the Final Statement is equal to or greater than the Closing Equity Payment (such excess being referred to herein as the “Unpaid Balance”), then, within five (5) Business Days after the final determination of the Final Statement: (i) Buyer and Seller shall provide written instruction to the Escrow Agent to remit the Price Adjustment Escrow Amount to Seller and (ii) Buyer shall promptly pay to Seller an amount equal to the Unpaid Balance.

3.3.5 OVERPAYMENT.

If the Overpayment is less than the Price Adjustment Escrow Amount, Buyer and Seller shall include in the written instructions to the Escrow Agent referred to above instructions to remit the amount remaining in the Price Adjustment Escrow Amount to Seller.

3.4 WITHHOLDING. Buyer and each Acquired Company shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or under any applicable provision of state, local or non-U.S. Law.

(f) ACKNOWLEDGMENT. Seller acknowledges and agrees that it has independently consulted with its respective counsel and after such consultation agree that (i) the covenants set forth in this §6.1 (including with respect to subject matter, time period and geographical area) are reasonable and proper and are necessary to protect Buyer’s interest in, and value of, the business of the Company (including the goodwill inherent therein), (ii) the Company and Seller are primarily responsible for the creation of such value, and (iii) the Buyer would not have consummated the transactions contemplated hereby without the restrictions contained in this §6.1.

In case at any time after the Closing any further action is necessary or desirable to complete the transactions contemplated hereby, the Parties will take such further action (including the execution and delivery of such further instruments and documents) as any other Party may request, all the sole cost and expense of the requesting Party (unless the requesting Party is entitled to indemnification for such costs and expenses under §8 below).

For a period of six (6) years after the Closing Date, Seller shall maintain, at the expense of the Seller, directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies for each of the Acquired Companies that provide coverage in scope and amount equivalent to those maintained by the Acquired Companies prior to the Closing Date for the benefit of those Persons who are currently covered by such policies on terms no less favorable than the terms of such current insurance coverage, for the purpose of insuring the obligations of the Acquired Companies with respect to periods prior to the Closing Date as described in §7.2.1.

7.2.3 EXCULPATORY PROVISIONS. Buyer shall not, and shall not permit any Acquired Company to, amend any of the Acquired Company’s articles of incorporation, bylaws, other Organizational Documents or contracts, in each case, that have been provided or made available to Buyer as of the date hereof, to reduce or eliminate the benefits contemplated by §7.2.1 or of any exculpatory provisions applicable to any past or current officer or director of any Acquired Company.

8—REMEDIES FOR BREACHES OF THIS AGREEMENT.

8.1 SURVIVAL. The Parties, intending to contractually shorten the applicable statute of limitations, agree that (i) all representations and warranties stated in or made pursuant to this Agreement (with the exception of Fundamental Representations) shall expire on the date that is twelve (12) months following the Closing Date (“Survival Period”), and (ii) all Fundamental Representations stated in or made pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the Closing until the date that is ninety (90) days after the date that is six (6) years following the Closing Date (“Fundamental Survival Period”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the representations and warranties stated in or made pursuant to §4.10 (Tax Matters) and the representations and warranties stated in or made pursuant to §4.12 (Environmental, Health and Safety Matters) shall survive for a period of ninety (90) days following expiration of the statutes of limitations applicable to the Taxes, Tax Returns, Environmental, Health, and Safety Requirements, or other matters to which

such Fundamental Representations relate (taking into account any applicable extension or tolling thereof) (“Tax and Environmental Survival Period”). Any covenants or obligations of the Parties set forth in this Agreement that by their terms are to be performed after Closing will survive in accordance with their respective terms.

8.2 INDEMNIFICATION.

8.2.1 OF BUYER. After the Closing, subject to the terms, conditions and limitations of this §8, Seller shall indemnify Buyer and each of its Affiliates (including the Acquired Companies) and their respective employees, officers, directors, managers, equity holders, agents and advisors (the “Buyer Indemnitees”) and hold each of them harmless from and against any and all Losses incurred or paid by them and resulting or arising out of (i) the failure or breach of any of the representations and warranties made by Seller in this Agreement or in any certificate relating hereto that is delivered to Buyer by or on behalf of Seller pursuant to this Agreement, (ii) a breach by Seller of any of its covenants or agreements in this Agreement, (iii) any Company Indebtedness incurred through the Closing Date (to the extent not paid at or prior to Closing or such amount did not reduce the Base Purchase Price) other than Indebtedness incurred by Buyer at or after Closing, (iv) any Closing Transaction Expenses (to the extent not paid at or prior to Closing or such amount did not reduce the Base Purchase Price), (v) any Liability, or loss of a Tax deduction, under, or as a result of the application of, Section 280G of the Code, unless such Liability or loss of a Tax deduction is caused by an action taken by Buyer, either before or on Closing, to create a right to a payment which is treated as contingent on a change in ownership or control pursuant to Section 280G of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder and such right of payment is different from the salary and bonus payments disclosed to Seller before the Closing and assuming that the employee’s role within the Company has not changed), (vi) any Pre-Closing Taxes (net of any such Taxes which are reflected on the Final Statement, as finally determined (to the extent of such adjustment)), but excluding any withholding or other Taxes imposed on the dividend declared by Enstar on December 14, 2018 payable to the Company contemplated in §3.2.3(p), and (vii) those Liabilities set forth on SCHEDULE 8.2.1(vii) (collectively, “Buyer Losses”). In the event of a Buyer Loss, Buyer is the “Indemnified Party” under this Agreement and Seller is referred to as the “Indemnifying Party” under this Agreement.

8.2.2 OF SELLER. After the Closing, subject to the terms, conditions and limitations of this §8, Buyer shall indemnify Seller from and against any and all Losses incurred or paid by it and resulting or arising out of (i) the failure or breach of any of the representations and warranties made by Buyer in this Agreement, or (ii) a breach by Buyer of any of its covenants in this Agreement (collectively, “Seller Losses”). In the event of a Seller Loss, Buyer is the “Indemnifying Party” under this Agreement, and Seller is referred to as the “Indemnified Party” under this Agreement.

8.3 LIMITATIONS.

8.3.1 DETERMINATION OF LOSSES. All Losses hereunder shall be determined net of any Third-Party Awards. For purposes of §8.2.1, with respect to each representation and warranty contained in this Agreement that is subject to a “materiality,” “material,” “Company Material Adverse Effect,” “in all material respects” or similar qualification, any such

qualification shall be disregarded for purposes of determining whether a breach of such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement has occurred and for calculating the amount of any Buyer Loss that is subject to indemnification hereunder.

8.3.2 EXCLUSIVITY. The remedies available under this §8 and the ClearLight Agreement shall be the exclusive remedies for any Losses resulting from or arising out of (i) any breach of any representation, warranty or covenant under this Agreement or (ii) the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, however, that neither the foregoing nor anything else contained in this Agreement shall limit (whether a temporal limitation, a dollar limitation or otherwise) a Party’s remedies (I) in the case of (a) Fraud, or (b) intentional breach of a representation, warranty or a covenant of the Acquired Companies or Seller, or (II) in respect of the pursuit of equitable remedies, including injunctive relief and specific performance.

8.3.3 DUTY TO MITIGATE. An Indemnified Party shall take commercially reasonable steps to mitigate all indemnifiable Losses upon and after becoming aware of any event or circumstance that could give rise to any such Losses. With respect to Losses that are not excluded under the R&W Policy, once the Retention (as that term is defined in the R&W Policy) has been met, Buyer shall not be entitled to recover such Losses under this §8 unless and until Buyer has used commercially reasonable efforts to recover such Losses under the R&W Policy.

8.3.4 DEDUCTIBLE. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein but subject to this §8.3.4, only when aggregate Buyer Losses from any claims pursuant to clause (i) of the first sentence of §8.2.1 (which must be set forth in a notification in accordance with §8.4.1) exceed $288,117 (the “Deductible Amount”) may Buyer Indemnitees recover for any claim, demand or request for payments pursuant to clause (i) of the first sentence of §8.2.1, and in such case Buyer shall, subject to the limitations contained herein, be entitled to indemnification for the amount of all such Losses representing claims after deducting the Deductible Amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer Losses resulting from Seller’s breach of any of its Fundamental Representations or Seller’s Fraud shall not be subject to the Deductible Amount.

8.3.5 CAP. Seller shall not have any responsibility for indemnification claims made pursuant to clause (i) of the first sentence of §8.2.1 in an aggregate amount in excess of $288,117 (the “Cap”), provided, that the Cap shall not apply to claims for indemnification in respect of breach of any Fundamental Representations, claims for indemnification pursuant to the matters set forth in §8.2.1(ii)-(vii), or claims arising out of or based upon Fraud. In the case of breaches of Fundamental Representations (other than the representations and warranties stated in or made pursuant to §4.10), Seller shall not have any responsibility under this §8 in an aggregate amount in excess of the sum of (i) Base Purchase Price plus (ii) any Payoff Letter Company Indebtedness or Closing Transaction Expenses that are payable, or paid, to Seller, ClearLight or any of their Affiliates (including any amounts payable pursuant to the Amended and Restated Management Agreement, dated January 1, 2013, as amended by the First Amendment to Amended and Restated Management Agreement, dated August 28, 2018, by and among the Company, Seller, and ClearLight Partners Management II, LLC) pursuant to this Agreement or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

8.3.6 CLAIM REQUIRED TO BE MADE PRIOR TO END OF APPLICABLE SURVIVAL PERIOD. For a Party to be indemnified under the provisions of this Agreement for a breach of a representation or warranty, such Party must deliver the written notice referred to in §8.4.1 below, prior to the expiration of the Survival Period, the Fundamental Survival Period, or the Tax and Environmental Survival Period (as applicable), it being understood that so long as such written notice is delivered on or prior to such date, such representations or warranties to which a claim of breach relates shall continue to survive until such matter is resolved. Failure to so deliver such written notice with respect to any breach of a representation or warranty prior to the expiration of the Survival Period, the Fundamental Survival Period, or the Tax and Environmental Survival Period (as applicable) shall result in the applicable Party’s loss of the right to indemnification hereunder.

8.4 INDEMNIFICATION PROCEDURES.

8.4.1 WRITTEN NOTICE. At any time after an Indemnified Party incurs a Loss or Losses, learns of facts that could support a claim for indemnification hereunder, or receives notice of the assertion of any claim, issuance of any Order or the commencement of any Proceeding by any Person who is not a Party or an Affiliate of a Party, including any domestic or foreign court or Governmental Authority, against such Indemnified Party, including, without limitation, any claim by a third-party described in §8.4.3, in each case, which might give rise to indemnification hereunder, the Indemnified Party shall deliver to the Indemnifying Party (and, if the Indemnified Party is Buyer, to the Escrow Agent) a written notice specifying in reasonable detail the basis for such claim, the facts pertaining thereto and, if known and quantifiable, the amount thereof.

8.4.2 DENIAL OF OBLIGATION TO INDEMNIFY. In case the Indemnifying Party shall object to the indemnification of an Indemnified Party in respect of any claim or claims specified in written notice and/or object to the Indemnified Party’s estimate of the amount of an indemnifiable Loss specified therein, the Indemnifying Party shall, within thirty (30) days after receipt by the Indemnifying Party of such written notice, deliver to the Indemnified Party (and, if the Indemnifying Party is Seller, to the Escrow Agent) a written notice to such effect. The Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall, within the thirty (30) day period beginning on the date of receipt by the Indemnified Party of such written objection, attempt in good faith to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of such claims (and/or the estimated amount thereof) to which the Indemnifying Party shall have so objected. If the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party succeed in reaching agreement with respect to such matters, the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall promptly prepare and sign a memorandum setting forth such agreement, and a true and correct copy shall be delivered to the Escrow Agent by the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party fail to reach an agreement with respect to such matters during the relevant thirty (30) day period, then either Party may commence a Proceeding for final determination of such matters.

8.4.3 THIRD-PARTY CLAIMS.

(a) If Buyer is entitled to indemnification under §8.2.1 for Buyer Losses arising from, relating to or constituting any Proceeding instituted by any third party (any such third-party Proceeding being referred to as a “Third-Party Action”), Buyer shall give Seller prompt written notice of the commencement of such Third-Party Action. To the extent practicable

and permitted, the complaint or other papers pursuant to which the third party commenced such Third-Party Action shall be attached to such written notice. The failure to give prompt written notice will not affect Buyer’s right to indemnification unless such failure has materially and adversely prejudiced Seller’s ability to defend successfully such Third-Party Action.

(b) Other than with respect to any Third-Party Action for which Buyer seeks recovery under the R&W Policy for which the insurer under the R&W Policy shall have the right to directly or indirectly control the defense thereof, Seller may participate in, and, to the extent Seller desires, at any time assume the defense of such Third-Party Action with attorneys retained by Seller, subject to the limitations set forth in §8.4.3(c). The cost of such defense assumed by Seller shall be paid by Seller. Upon and after notice from Seller to Buyer of its election to assume the defense of such Third-Party Action, Buyer shall not have the right to be indemnified under this §8 for any legal or other expenses incurred by Buyer in connection with the defense thereof; provided, however, that Buyer shall be entitled at any time, at its own cost and expense, to participate in such defense and to be represented by attorneys of its own choosing. At the expense of Seller, Buyer shall cooperate in the conduct of such defense to the extent reasonably requested by Seller in the contest and defense of such Third-Party Action, including but not limited to providing reasonable access (upon reasonable notice) to the Books and Records and employees of the Acquired Companies if relevant to the defense of such Third-Party Action. In the event Seller assumes the defense of a Third-Party Action, Seller shall keep Buyer apprised of the status of any Third-Party Action for which it has assumed the defense, shall furnish Buyer with all documents and information that Buyer reasonably requests, and shall consult with Buyer prior to acting on major matters, including settlement discussions. If Seller does not assume the defense of a Third-Party Action, Buyer shall be entitled to conduct its own defense and to be represented by attorneys of its own choosing, and cost and expense thereof shall be indemnified from the Indemnity Escrow Amount as provided herein.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this §0, Buyer shall have the right to assume control of the defense, and Seller shall not have the right to assume control of the defense, if the Third-Party Action which Seller seeks to assume control of: (1) seeks non-monetary relief; (2) involves criminal or quasi-criminal allegations; (3) is one in which Seller and a Buyer Indemnitee are both named in the complaint; (4) could reasonably be expected to adversely affect the Taxes of a Buyer Indemnitee for a taxable period (or portion thereof) beginning after the Closing Date; or (5) involves a claim for which an adverse determination would have an adverse effect on a Buyer Indemnitee’s reputation or future business prospects. Furthermore, Seller shall not be entitled to control, and Buyer shall be entitled to have sole control over, the defense of any Third-Party Action if at any time any of the following conditions are not satisfied: (i) Seller shall have acknowledged, or if requested by Buyer confirmed, in writing that it shall be fully responsible for all Losses relating to, and costs of defending, such Third-Party Action without giving effect to any of the limitations set forth in this Agreement; (ii) Seller is diligently defending such Third-Party Action; (iii) the Losses claimed in such Third-Party Action are less than the remaining Indemnity Escrow Amount less all amounts subject to other pending but unresolved indemnification claims; and (iv) there does not exist a conflict of interest between Seller and any Buyer Indemnitee that, in the reasonable judgment of Buyer, cannot be waived, other than a conflict of interest arising solely from the obligation to indemnify. The fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Party with respect to a Third-Party Action shall be considered Losses for purposes of this Agreement.

(d) The Buyer Indemnitees shall have the right to compromise and settle a Third Party Action, where such settlement or compromise may result in Losses which are indemnifiable by Seller, without the consent of Seller, recognizing that the determination of whether such Losses are indemnifiable by Seller shall be determined in separate negotiations or Proceedings. Seller may not concede, settle or compromise any Third-Party Action without the prior written consent of Buyer, which consent Buyer shall not unreasonably withhold or delay if the proposed settlement (i) does not involve the imposition of an injunction or other equitable relief on any Buyer Indemnitee, (ii) expressly and unconditionally releases the Buyer Indemnitees from all Liabilities with respect to such Third-Party Action (and all other claims arising out of the same or similar facts and circumstances), with prejudice, (iii) does not include a provision for Losses or potential Losses not fully covered by the R&W Policy or in excess of the then-remaining Indemnity Escrow Amount less all amounts subject to other pending but unresolved indemnification claims, and (iv) is not reasonably expected to have a material adverse effect on the affected business of any Buyer Indemnitee.

8.4.4 AGREED CLAIMS. Claims for Losses specified in any written notice to which no Indemnifying Party shall object in writing within thirty (30) days of receipt of such written notice and claims for Losses covered by a memorandum of agreement of the nature described in §8.4.2 are hereinafter collectively referred to as “Agreed Claims.” Within five (5) Business Days of the determination of the amount of any Agreed Claims for which Buyer is entitled to indemnification hereunder, Buyer shall prepare, and Buyer and Seller shall each execute and deliver, a joint written instruction to the Escrow Agent directing the Escrow Agent to pay Buyer the amount of such Agreed Claim from the available funds (as determined pursuant to the Escrow Agreement) from the Indemnity Escrow Amount. If the value of the Agreed Claim is in excess of the then-current Indemnity Escrow Amount, then the amount payable to Buyer shall be the balance of the then-available funds in the Indemnity Escrow Amount and Buyer shall thereafter make a claim for recovery under the R&W Policy for the remainder of the Agreed Claim (other than in the case of Agreed Claims in respect of breaches of any Fundamental Representations, in respect of the matters set forth in §8.2.1(ii)-(vii), or arising out of or based upon Fraud). Within ten (10) days of the determination of the amount of any Agreed Claims for which Seller is entitled to indemnification hereunder, Buyer shall pay an amount equal to the Agreed Claim by wire transfer in immediately available funds to Seller.

8.4.5 SOURCE OF PAYMENT. Any Losses indemnifiable pursuant to clause (i) of the first sentence of §8.2.1 that are recoverable by Buyer will be recovered subject to, and in accordance with, the following: (i) first, such Losses will be recovered exclusively from the Indemnity Escrow Amount or, if applicable, the Special Escrow Amount; (ii) second, such Losses will be recovered, from claims for recovery under the R&W Policy; and (iii) third, such Losses will be recovered from Seller. The Indemnity Escrow Amount and, if applicable, the Special Escrow Amount shall be used solely to satisfy such indemnification obligations for which Seller is liable and all such indemnification obligations will be satisfied out of the Indemnity Escrow Amount or, if applicable, the Special Escrow Amount prior to being satisfied out of any other funds of Seller. For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, except for claims for indemnification in respect of breach of any Fundamental Representations, claims for indemnification pursuant to the matters set forth in §8.2.1(ii)-(vii), or claims for breaches arising out of or based upon Fraud, a claim for recovery against the then-remaining Indemnity Escrow Amount or, if

applicable, the Special Escrow Amount and the R&W Policy will be the sole and exclusive recourse and remedy of Buyer for any Losses under §8, or for Losses arising out of or related to any breach of or inaccuracy in any statement made in any certificate relating thereto that is delivered to Buyer by or on behalf of Seller pursuant to this Agreement.

8.4.6 NO DOUBLE RECOVERY. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, Buyer shall be entitled only to one recovery of Buyer Losses indemnified hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, Buyer’s indemnification rights pursuant to this §8 with respect to any Buyer Losses shall be reduced to the extent that such Buyer Losses have already been reflected in the Final Statement and the payments by Seller to Buyer pursuant to Section 3.3 relating thereto have actually been received by Buyer.

8.4.7 NATURE OF INDEMNIFICATION PAYMENTS. The Parties agree that any amounts payable pursuant to an indemnification claim under §8 shall be deemed a modification to the Base Purchase Price to the extent permitted by Law.

8.5 INDEMNITY ESCROW MATTERS. Except to the extent of any claims for Buyer Losses made against the Indemnity Escrow Amount pursuant to this §8 are then still pending, the Indemnity Escrow Amount shall be released by the Escrow Agent to Seller upon the date that is twelve (12) months and one (1) day following the Closing Date (the “Indemnity Escrow Release Date”) pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement. The Indemnity Escrow Amount shall be maintained and disbursed by the Escrow Agent pursuant to and in accordance with the terms hereof and the Escrow Agreement. All interest income and other earnings from the Indemnity Escrow Amount shall be the property of Seller. Distributions of any amounts from the Indemnity Escrow Amount shall be governed by the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement.

Straddle Period ending on (and including) the close of business on the Closing Date as the last day of the Pre-Closing Tax Period, based upon an interim closing of the books of such Acquired Company as of the close of business on the Closing Date (and for such purpose, the taxable period of any controlled foreign corporation, partnership or other pass-through entity in which such Acquired Company holds a beneficial interest shall be deemed to terminate at such time), except that exemptions, allowances, or deductions that are calculated on an annual basis will be prorated on the basis of the number of days in the annual period elapsed through the Closing Date as compared to the number of days in the annual period elapsing after the Closing Date; and (B) in the case of all other Taxes, an amount equal to (1) the amount of Taxes for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by (2) a fraction, (y) the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the portion of the Straddle Period ending on (and including) the Closing Date as the last day of the Pre-Closing Tax Period and (z) the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire Straddle Period.

9.3 ASSISTANCE. Seller and Buyer will each provide the other, and subsequent to the Closing, Buyer will cause the Acquired Companies to provide Seller, with such assistance as may reasonably be requested in connection with the preparation of any Tax Return, any audit or other examination by any Tax Authority, or any judicial or administrative proceedings relating to liability for Taxes, and each will retain and provide the requesting party with any records or information that may be reasonably relevant to such return, audit or examination, proceedings or determination. The Party requesting assistance will reimburse the other Party for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (other than salaries or wages of any employees of the Parties) incurred in providing such assistance.

9.5 CERTAIN TAXES. All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other such Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with this Agreement, shall be paid by Seller when due, and Seller will at its own expense, file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all such transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other Taxes and fees, and, if required by applicable Law, Buyer will join in the execution of any such Tax Returns and other documentation.

9.6 REFUNDS AND CREDITS; TAX BENEFITS. The Buyer shall pay or shall cause each Acquired Company to pay to Seller (for the account of Seller) the amount of all Tax refunds that are paid to such Acquired Company for all Pre-Closing Tax Periods, net of any out-of-pocket costs and Taxes attributable to receiving, attempting to receive, retaining, or attempting to retain such refund (a “Pre-Closing Tax Refund”), within ten (10) days after such Acquired Company receives such refund; provided, however, that in no event shall this §9.6 require that Buyer or the Acquired Companies make any payment of any Pre-Closing Tax Refund (and such Pre-Closing Tax Refund shall be for the benefit of Buyer) (i) that results from the payment of Taxes with

respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period made on or after the Closing Date to the extent (X) Buyer was not indemnified or otherwise reimbursed for such Taxes or (Y) such Taxes were not reflected in the Final Statement, as finally determined, or (ii) that gives rise to a payment obligation by Buyer or the Acquired Companies to any Person under applicable Laws or pursuant to a provision of a contract or other agreement entered into (or assumed) prior to the Closing. Further, all Tax refunds not described in the previous sentence shall be for the account of the applicable Company (and not for the account of Seller). Refunds for Straddle Periods shall be computed and apportioned in a manner consistent with §9.2. In the event that any portion of any amount paid pursuant to this §9.6 to Seller shall subsequently be challenged successfully by any Governmental Authority, Seller shall repay such amount to the Buyer.

9.7 END OF TAXABLE YEAR. Buyer shall cause the Tax year of the Company to close as of the end of the Closing Date for U.S. federal income Tax purposes by including the Company on Buyer’s consolidated Tax Return after the Closing Date. The Parties agree that all items accruing on the Closing Date shall be allocated to the Company’s taxable period ending on the Closing Date pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-76(b)(1)(ii)(A)(1) (and not pursuant to the “next day” rule under Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-76(b)(1)(ii)(B) or pursuant to the ratable allocation method under Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-76(b)(2)(ii) or 1.1502-76(b)(2)(iii)).

9.8 TAX CONTESTS. Buyer agrees to give prompt notice to Seller of any assertion of any claim, or the commencement of any suit, action or proceeding in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, or the commencement of any audit with respect to any Tax period for an Acquired Company ending on or before the Closing Date (any such suit, action, proceeding or audit, a “Tax Contest”), specifying with reasonable particularity the basis therefor, and will give Seller such information with respect thereto as Seller may reasonably request. Seller shall, at its election and expense, have the right to control the Tax Contest if (i) the Tax Contest relates solely to a Tax period ending on or before the Closing Date and (ii) Seller shall have acknowledged, or if requested by Buyer confirmed, in writing that any Losses and costs of prosecuting relating to such Tax Contest are entirely subject to indemnification, or otherwise to be borne, by Seller pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that Seller shall keep Buyer informed regarding such Tax Contest on a timely basis, shall consult with Buyer in advance of filings, discussions and meetings, shall afford Buyer the opportunity to review any submissions and provide Buyer with final copies of such submissions and shall allow Buyer to participate in any such Tax Contest, including in any meetings with a Governmental Authority or other proceedings; provided, further, that Seller shall not agree to any settlement or other disposition of any such Tax Contest without Buyer’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. In all other instances, Buyer shall, at Seller’s expense to the extent Seller is obligated hereunder, without prejudice to its rights to indemnification contained herein, conduct the defense of any Tax Contest, but Seller may, at its own expense, participate in any such Tax Contest to the extent permitted by applicable Law; provided, that, Buyer may settle or agree to another disposition of any such Tax Contest without Seller’s consent, recognizing that the determination of whether any related Losses are indemnifiable by Seller shall be determined in separate negotiations or proceedings. Prior to settling or agreeing upon any disposition of any such Tax Contest, Buyer shall consult with Seller regarding such Tax Contest for a period of not less than ten (10) days, after which Buyer may settle or otherwise dispose of such Tax Contest on terms Buyer determines. Failure to notify Seller of a Tax Contest or to allow Seller to control a Tax Contest in accordance

with this §9.8 shall not relieve Seller of its obligations under this Agreement, except to the extent Seller’s liability under this Agreement is actually and materially adversely affected as a result thereof. This §9.8 and not §8.4.3 shall control all Tax Contests.

9.9AMENDMENT TO PRE-CLOSING TAX PERIOD TAX RETURN.

10.10 WAIVER. Any Party to this Agreement may waive compliance or performance of any provision of this Agreement that is intended for the benefit of such waiving Party. Any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in a writing executed by the Party to be bound thereby.

The failure of any Party to assert any of its rights under this §10.10 shall not constitute a waiver of any of such rights. No course of dealing between or among any persons having any interest in this Agreement shall be deemed effective to modify, amend or discharge any part of this Agreement or any rights or obligations of any Party under or by reason of this Agreement.

10.11 SEVERABILITY. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction.

10.12 CONSTRUCTION. The Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring either Party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement. Any reference to any federal, state, local, or foreign statute or Law shall be deemed also to refer to all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, unless the context requires otherwise.

Seller may, at its option, include in the Disclosure Schedule items that are not material in order to avoid any misunderstanding, and any such inclusion, or any references to dollar amounts, shall not be deemed to be an acknowledgment or representation that such items are material, to establish any standard of materiality or to define further the meaning of such terms for purposes of this Agreement. Information disclosed in the Disclosure Schedules shall constitute a disclosure for all purposes under this Agreement notwithstanding any reference to a specific Section, to the extent it is readily apparent from the disclosure that such information applied to another Section of the Agreement. The Parties intend that each representation, warranty and covenant contained herein shall have independent significance. If any Party has breached any representation, warranty or covenant contained herein in any respect, the fact that there exists another representation, warranty or covenant relating to the same subject matter (regardless of the relative levels of specificity) that the Party has not breached shall not detract from or mitigate the fact that the Party is in breach of the first representation, warranty or covenant.
