(b) During the thirty (30)-day period following the Founders’ receipt of each Statement, the Founders and their independent accountants shall be permitted to review at their expense, and the Company shall, and shall cause the Company’s independent accountants to, make available to the Founders, the supporting schedules, analyses, working papers, records, data and other documentation of the Company or the Company’s independent accountants relating to such Statement, and to ask questions of, promptly receive answers from and request such other data and information from each of the Company and the Company’s independent accountants as shall be reasonable under the circumstances, but subject to the execution of any release, waiver, non-reliance or indemnification agreements that the Company’s independent accountants may reasonably request from the Founders. The Statement shall become final and binding upon the parties on the Business Day following the 30th day following delivery thereof (and the 2010 EBITDA or 2011 Revenue and 2011 EBITDA, as applicable, therein shall be deemed to be the Final 2010 EBITDA or Final 2011 Revenue and Final 2011 EBITDA, as applicable), unless the Founders give written notice of their disagreement with such Statement (“Notice of Disagreement”) to the Company prior to such date.

(c) During the fifteen (15) day period following the delivery of an Notice of Disagreement or such longer period as the Founders and the Company may mutually agree, the Founders and the Company shall seek in good faith to resolve in writing any differences that they may have with respect to the matters specified in the Notice of Disagreement, and in the event the Founders and the Company are able to reach such resolution then the amount so agreed by them in writing shall be deemed to be the Final 2010 EBITDA, Final 2011 Revenue or Final 2011 EBITDA, as applicable. If, at the end of such fifteen (15) day period (or such longer period as mutually agreed between the Founders and the Company), the Founders and the Company have not so resolved such differences, the remaining disputed items properly included in the Notice of Disagreement shall be submitted to the Nonpartisan Accountants for final resolution. After affording the Company and its representatives and the Founders and their representatives the opportunity to present their positions as to the disputed items (which opportunity shall not extend for more than thirty (30) days after the submission of such dispute to the Nonpartisan Accountants), the Nonpartisan Accountants shall resolve all disputed items in writing. Such resolution shall be final and binding upon the parties and shall be reflected in any necessary

revisions to the Statement; provided, however, that the scope of the disputes to be resolved by the Nonpartisan Accountants is limited to only such items included in the Statement that the Founders have disputed in the Notice of Disagreement based upon mathematical errors in the Statement or based upon 2010 EBITDA, 2011 Revenue or 2011 EBITDA, as applicable, not having been calculated in accordance with relevant provisions of this Agreement (including the definitions of defined terms used in this Agreement). The Nonpartisan Accountants shall determine, based solely on presentations by the Company and the Founders and their respective representatives, only those issues in dispute specifically set forth on the Notice of Disagreement and shall prepare a written report as to the disputes and the resulting calculation of 2010 EBITDA, 2011 Revenue or 2011 EBITDA, as applicable. In resolving any disputed item, the Nonpartisan Accountants: (w) shall be bound by the principles set forth in this Section 2, (x) shall limit its review to matters specifically set forth in the Notice of Disagreement, (y) shall further limit its review to whether the Statement contained mathematical errors or whether 2010 EBITDA, 2011 Revenue or 2011 EBITDA, as applicable, was calculated in accordance with the relevant provisions of this Agreement (including the definitions of defined terms used in this Agreement) and (z) shall not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by either party or less than the smallest value for such item claimed by either party. The fees, costs and expenses of the Nonpartisan Accountants in connection with any such determination shall be borne by (x) the Company in the proportion that the aggregate dollar amount of such disputed items so submitted that are successfully disputed by the Founders bear to the aggregate dollar amount of such items so submitted and (y) by the Founders in the proportion that the aggregate dollar amount of such disputed items so submitted that are unsuccessfully disputed by the Founders bear to the aggregate dollar amount of such items so submitted. The Founders and the Company shall bear their own costs in connection with this Section 2, including the fees and expenses of their respective attorneys and accountants, if any.

2.4. Payment of Bonus.

(a) If the Founders are eligible to receive the 2010 Bonus pursuant to this Section 2, the Company shall pay the 2010 Bonus to the Founders on December 31, 2011 (the “2010 Bonus Payment”). Each Founder shall be entitled to one-half of the 2010 Bonus Payment.

(b) If the Founders are eligible to receive the 2011 Bonus pursuant to this Section 2, the Company shall pay the 2011 Bonus to the Founders in the following manner: (a) one third (1/3rd) of the 2011 Bonus shall be paid on July 31, 2012 (the “First 2011 Bonus Payment”); and (b) one third (1/3rd) of the 2011 Bonus shall be paid on July 31st of each year following the First 2011 Bonus Payment for each of the next two (2) years (the “Other 2011 Bonus Payments” and collectively with the First 2011 Bonus Payment, the “2011 Bonus Payments”, and collectively with the 2010 Bonus Payment, the “Bonus Payments”). For the avoidance of doubt, the final 2011 Bonus Payment shall be made by no later than July 31, 2014. Each Founder shall be entitled to one-half of each 2011 Bonus Payment.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Founders are eligible to receive any of the Bonus Payments and such Bonus Payments have not been paid (the “Unpaid Bonus Payments”) as of the date of a Change in Control, the Founders shall be entitled to and shall be paid the Unpaid Bonus Payments on the date of the Change in Control. “Change in Control” means any one person, or more than one person acting as a group (other than Stripes Group LLC or any Affiliate of Stripes Group, LLC) (i) acquires (whether by merger, consolidation, purchase of stock or otherwise) ownership of stock of the Company that, together with stock held by such person or group, constitutes more than 50 percent of the total fair market value or total voting power of the stock of the Company or (ii) acquires assets of the Company (other than inventory) that constitute more than 50 percent of the total gross fair market value of the assets of the Company. For this purpose, “gross fair market value” means the value of the assets of the Company, or the value of the assets being disposed of, determined without regard to any liabilities associated with such assets.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Change in Control occurs prior to December 31, 2011 and the aggregate proceeds received by the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock and the Common Stock (after giving effect to the payment of the Maximum 2011 Bonus, as defined below) are greater than an amount (the “2011 Bonus Payment Acceleration Threshold”) equal to the higher of (i) $40,672,389 and (ii) the aggregate liquidation preference of all then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, then the Founders shall be entitled to and shall be paid the 2011 Bonus on the date of the Change in Control as calculated in the table provided in Section 2.3(c) based on a Final 2011 EBITDA that is equal to $21,000,000 (the “Maximum 2011 Bonus”), but if a Change in Control occurs prior to December 31, 2011 and the aggregate proceeds received by the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock and the Common Stock are less than the 2011 Bonus Payment Acceleration Threshold, then this Agreement shall continue in effect after such Change in Control as though such Change in Control had not occurred.

2.5. Further Assurances. For purposes of complying with the terms set forth in this Section 2, each party shall cooperate with and make available to the other parties and their respective representatives all information, records, data and working papers (subject to the entry into such agreements as the Company’s accountants may request in connection therewith), and

 

6

shall permit access to its facilities and personnel, as may be reasonably required in connection with the preparation or analysis of the Statement and the resolution of any disputes with respect to the Statement.

2.6. No Guaranty of Payment. The Company shall have complete discretion with respect to the manufacture, marketing, pricing and distribution of all of the Company’s products and services after the Closing and the Company may eliminate or otherwise alter at any time or from time to time any or all of such products or services and shall have the right to operate the business of the Company as it sees fit and shall have no obligation (fiduciary or otherwise) to sell or promote products or to act in any manner in an attempt to protect or maximize the Bonus; provided, however, that the Company shall not take or omit to take any action for the sole purpose of reducing the amount of Bonus. Neither the Founders nor any other party shall have any claim against the Company in connection with the Bonus, except the extent unpaid when due under this Section 2. It is expressly acknowledged and agreed that the potential Bonus is contingent on the performance of the business of the Company and there is no guarantee of any Bonus under this Agreement.

2.7. Tax Gross-Up. Upon the payment to the Founders of each Bonus Payment due hereunder, the Company shall pay the Founders an additional amount sufficient to cover the excess difference between (i) all Federal, state, local and employment taxes (assuming the highest applicable tax rates) payable on the Bonus Payment and such additional amount, and (ii) the amount of tax that would have been payable on the Bonus Payment had it been subject to the long-term capital gains rate of tax (including Federal and any such state or local rates) (such additional amount, the “Gross-Up Amount”), provided that if the difference between the combined rates of tax in (i) and (ii) is greater than 20 percent, the Gross-Up Amount shall be calculated as if the difference between such rates was 20 percent. For purposes of calculating the Gross-Up Amount, all tax rates shall be as set forth in the Internal Revenue Code (or applicable state or local law) for the year in which the Bonus Payment is made. The Gross-Up Amount shall be paid to the Founders at the same time as the related Bonus Payment.
