RECITALS: WHEREAS, the Target Companies conduct the business of producing, selling and distributing aggregate and asphalt and providing asphalt paving and construction services and such other commercial activities as (a) were previously conducted, (b) are currently conducted or (c) are proposed to be conducted as of the date of this Agreement (collectively, the “Business”); WHEREAS, the Beneficial Owners in the aggregate own all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of the Seller (the “Seller Shares”), and the Seller in the aggregate owns all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Target Companies (the “Acquired Equity”); WHEREAS, the Beneficial Owners, as the holders of all of the Seller Shares, will benefit from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and have agreed to enter into this Agreement as a condition precedent to the Buyer’s entry into this Agreement; WHEREAS, the parties desire that the Seller, and the Beneficial Owners cause the Seller to, sell, assign, convey and transfer, and the Buyer purchases, one hundred percent (100%) of the Acquired Equity for the consideration and on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement; and WHEREAS, the Guarantor is a party to this Agreement for purposes of guaranteeing the obligations of Buyer as set forth herein.

The Estimated Purchase Price; Closing Date Payments. (a) The Sellers’ Representative has delivered to the Buyer a schedule (the “Estimated Purchase Price Calculation Statement”), certifying in reasonable detail the Seller’s good faith, reasonable estimate of the amounts of the following, in each case calculated as of the Closing: (i)

4 Cash and Cash Equivalents, (ii) Reimbursable Transaction Expenses; (iii) Indebtedness, including Closing Indebtedness to be repaid or retired at the Closing, (iv) unpaid Company Transaction Expenses, (v) Closing Date Net Working Capital and the Net Working Capital Adjustment calculated by reference thereto and (vi) based on the foregoing clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv) and (v), together with the Base Purchase Price, the Seller’s good faith, reasonable estimate of the amount of the Estimated Purchase Price, together with reasonable supporting detail, including the payees and accounts to which payment should be made. The Estimated Purchase Price Calculation Statement and the calculations related thereto have been calculated in accordance with the Accounting Principles. (b) The Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative have, for the benefit of the Seller Parties, jointly designated Argent Institutional Trust Company (the “Agent”), and entered into an Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement (the “Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement”) with the Agent, to act as agent for the administration of the payments to the Seller and to hold the Escrow Amount, each pursuant to this Agreement. At the Closing, the Buyer shall (i) pay to the Agent, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, to be further distributed to the Seller by the Agent pursuant to the terms of the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement, an aggregate amount equal to the Estimated Purchase Price, minus the Escrow Amount, (ii) deposit or to cause to be deposited, with the Agent, the Escrow Amount by wire transfer in immediately available funds, to be managed and paid out by the Agent pursuant to the terms of the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement, (iii) pay or cause to be paid by the Agent the unpaid Indebtedness noted as required to be paid at the Closing as set forth on the Estimated Purchase Price Calculation Statement (the “Closing Indebtedness”) and the unpaid Company Transaction Expenses, in each case, in the amounts and to the respective creditors and payees set forth in the Estimated Purchase Price Calculation Statement, and (iv) deposit or cause to be deposited by the Agent in the account set forth on the Estimated Purchase Price Calculation Statement, the amount equal to the Sellers’ Representative Expense Amount by wire transfer in immediately available funds. 2.6. Purchase Price True-Up. (a) A written statement (the “Final Purchase Price Calculation Statement”) certifying in reasonable detail the Buyer’s good faith, reasonable calculations of the amount of the (i) Cash and Cash Equivalents, (ii) Reimbursable Transaction Expenses, (iii) Indebtedness, including Closing Indebtedness repaid or retired at the Closing, (iv) Company Transaction Expenses, (v) Closing Date Net Working Capital and the Net Working Capital Adjustment calculated by reference thereto and (vi) based on the foregoing clauses (i) through (v), in each case calculated as of the Closing, a calculation of the Purchase Price, shall be delivered by the Buyer to the Sellers’ Representative as soon as practicable following the Closing Date, but not later than sixty (60) calendar days after the last day of the month in which the Closing occurs, together with reasonable supporting detail. Prior to the delivery of any Notice of Disagreement, each party shall give the other party reasonable access to any data or materials not under the control of such party necessary to prepare and/or evaluate the Final Purchase Price Calculation Statement. (b) The Final Purchase Price Calculation Statement shall become final and binding on the parties on the thirtieth (30th) calendar day following receipt thereof by the Sellers’ Representative unless the Sellers’ Representative delivers written notice of its good faith disagreement (a “Notice of Disagreement”) to the Buyer prior to such date. Any Notice of Disagreement shall specify in

5 reasonable detail each of the items set forth on the Final Purchase Price Calculation Statement with which the Seller Parties disagree and the Seller Parties’ calculation of each such amount (any such disagreements so notified in writing within such timeframe, the “Disputed Matters”). The Sellers’ Representative will be deemed to have agreed with all other items and amounts contained in the Final Purchase Price Calculation Statement, as applicable, that are not expressly Disputed Matters, which such items and amounts shall be considered final and binding. If a Notice of Disagreement is sent, then the amount of Cash and Cash Equivalents, Reimbursable Transaction Expenses, Closing Indebtedness, Company Transaction Expenses, Closing Date Net Working Capital, Net Working Capital Adjustment and Purchase Price (as recalculated in accordance with clause (i) or (ii) below) shall become final and binding on the parties on the earlier of (i) the date the parties hereto resolve in writing any differences they have with respect to the Disputed Matters and (ii) the date any Disputed Matters are finally determined in accordance with the balance of this Section 2.6(b). During the thirty (30)-day period following the delivery of a Notice of Disagreement, the Sellers’ Representative and the Buyer shall seek in good faith to resolve in writing the Disputed Matters. During such period, the Buyer shall have access to the work papers the Sellers’ Representative prepared in connection with the Notice of Disagreement. If, at the end of such thirty (30)-day period, the Sellers’ Representative and the Buyer have not reached agreement on any of the Disputed Matters, the Disputed Matters which remain in dispute shall be recalculated by an independent accounting firm (the “Independent Accountant”). The Independent Accountant shall be a mutually agreeable accountant at Ernst & Young LLP or, if such firm is unable or unwilling to act, such other independent public accounting firm as shall be agreed in writing by the Sellers’ Representative and the Buyer. The Independent Accountant will, under the terms of its engagement, have no more than thirty (30) days (or such longer period as the Independent Accountant may reasonably require) from the date of its engagement to render its written decision with respect to any remaining Disputed Matters, which determination must set forth, in reasonable detail, the basis therefor. The procedures to be used by the Independent Accountant in making a determination regarding each Disputed Matter shall be as follows: (A) within ten (10) days after referral of the matter to and acceptance of the responsibility to resolve each Disputed Matter by the Independent Accountant, the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative may each make a single submission to the Independent Accountant regarding the Disputed Matters, which submission may include a copy of this Agreement and the Notice of Disagreement; (B) the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative may each make a submission responding to the submission of the other described in clause (A) within ten (10) days after receipt of such other’s submission; (C) the Independent Accountant shall review the submissions made by the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative and may ask specific written questions of or request specific historical documents from the Buyer or the Sellers’ Representative to clarify its understanding of the submissions; and (D) copies of any submission, response or document submitted to or by the Independent Accountant by or to the Buyer or Sellers’ Representative as contemplated in this Section 2.6 shall be provided by the Independent Accountant to the other party hereto simultaneously or as soon as received, as the case may be. The Independent Accountant shall make its determination based exclusively on presentations and supporting material provided by the parties hereto and not pursuant to any independent review and shall only determine those amounts in dispute as set forth in the Notice of Disagreement. Any disputes with respect to the extent or nature of reasonable information requests or reasonable access to books and records shall be treated in the same manner as a Disputed Matter set forth on the Notice of Disagreement, such that the Disputed Matter may be referred to the Independent Accountant for its determination, which shall

6 be final and binding upon the parties. In resolving any such disputes, the Independent Accountant shall: (1) act as an arbitrator and not as an expert; (2) be bound by the clauses of this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, Annex C); (3) limit its review to the Disputed Matters and whether the Final Purchase Price Calculation Statement and the calculation of the Purchase Price set forth therein contained mathematical errors and were calculated in accordance with this Agreement; and (4) not assign a value to any item greater or lesser than the greatest or smallest value set forth in the Closing Statement and the Notice of Disagreement, as the case may be. In addition, the Independent Accountant shall make a ratable allocation of its fees and expenses between the parties for such work as a part of its determination based on the inverse proportion by which the amount in dispute was determined in favor of one party over the other (e.g., if $100,000 is in dispute, and of that amount the Independent Accountant awards $75,000 in favor of the Buyer and $25,000 in favor of the Sellers’ Representative, then the Buyer will be responsible for 25%, and the Sellers’ Representative 75%, of the costs and fees of the Independent Accountant). Any amounts so recalculated shall be final and binding on the parties. (c) If the Purchase Price, as calculated pursuant to this Section 2.6, exceeds the Estimated Purchase Price (the amount thereof, the “Excess”), then (i) the Buyer shall cause to be paid to the Seller an amount equal to the Excess, and (ii) the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative shall deliver a joint written notice to the Agent instructing it to pay all funds in the Adjustment Escrow Fund to the Seller. (d) If the Purchase Price, as calculated pursuant to this Section 2.6, is equal to the Estimated Purchase Price, then no further payment shall be due to either the Buyer or the Seller under this Section 2.5, except that the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative shall deliver a joint written notice to the Agent instructing it to pay all funds in the Adjustment Escrow Fund to the Seller. (e) If the Purchase Price, as calculated pursuant to this Section 2.6, is less than the Estimated Purchase Price (the amount of such difference, the “Deficiency”), then the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative shall deliver joint written notice to the Agent instructing it to pay the Deficiency out of the Adjustment Escrow Fund to the Buyer in accordance with the terms of the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement. If the Adjustment Escrow Fund is insufficient to cover the entire amount of the Deficiency, such shortfall shall be satisfied (i) first, from the Specific Indemnity Escrow Amount, (ii) second, from the then available proceeds of the Sellers’ Representative Expense Amount, (iii) third, from the Seller and (iv) fourth, from the Beneficial Owners, severally and not jointly, in accordance with their pro rata share as set forth on Annex A. If Buyer elects to withdraw funds from the Specific Indemnity Escrow Amount, Seller will, within three (3) Business Days after written notice of such election, deliver to the Agent, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, the amount withdrawn by the Agent and paid to Buyer in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.6(d). (f) Any payments made pursuant to this Section 2.6 shall be made within five (5) Business Days after the final determination thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by the applicable payee or payees. 2.7. Withholding. If applicable Law requires the Buyer to deduct and withhold from any amount otherwise payable to any Person pursuant to this Agreement, the Buyer shall deduct and withhold such required amount and shall promptly pay such amount over to the appropriate

7 Governmental Body. Any amounts deducted and withheld pursuant to this Section 2.7 shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect to which such deduction and withholding was made. 3. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE SELLER PARTIES. Each Beneficial Owner, severally and not jointly, and the Seller hereby represents and warrants to the Buyer that, except as set forth on the Disclosure Schedules, which exceptions (in accordance with Section 11) shall be deemed to be part of the representations and warranties made hereunder, the following representations and warranties are true and complete as of the Closing Date, except as otherwise indicated: 3.1.

No Conflicts. (a) Except as set forth on Section 3.3(a) of the Disclosure Schedules, no filing with or notice to, and no permit, authorization, registration, consent or approval of, any Governmental Body is required on the part of any Seller Party for the execution, delivery and performance by such Seller Party of this Agreement or any Transaction Document to which such Seller Party is a party, or the consummation by such Seller Party, as applicable, of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, except for (i) compliance with any applicable requirements of the HSR Act and related competition Laws, or (ii) any such filings, notices, permits, authorizations, registrations, consents or approvals, the failure to make or obtain would not have a Company Material Adverse Effect or be material to the Business, taken as a whole.

8 performance of this Agreement or any Transaction Document to which a Seller Party is a party, nor the consummation by the Seller Parties of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, will (i) conflict with or result in any breach, violation or infringement of any provision of the Organizational Documents of any Seller Party, (ii) result in a breach, cancellation, termination, violation or infringement of, conflict with, or constitute (with or without due notice or lapse of time or both) a default under, or give rise to the creation of any Encumbrance (except for Permitted Encumbrances), or any right of termination, amendment, cancellation or acceleration) under, any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any contract to which such Seller Party or any of its respective properties or assets are bound, or (iii) violate any Law applicable to any Seller Party or by which any of its properties or assets are bound, except, in the case of clause (ii) or clause (iii), as would not have a Company Material Adverse Effect. 3.4.

No Additional Representations or Warranties.

All representations, warranties, and certifications made by such Target Company with respect to any Government Contract or Government Bid, including all invoices and Claims arising therefrom, were proper and accurate as of their effective date, and such Target Company has complied in all material respects with such representations, warranties, and certifications. Neither any of the Target Companies nor, to the Seller’s Knowledge,

16 any other party to any Government Contract is currently in violation, breach or default under any such Contract or, with or without notice or lapse of time or both, would be in violation or breach of or default under any such Government Contract. (iii) Neither Seller nor any Target Company has misrepresented its size or any other status in connection with the award or performance of any Government Contract or Government Bid, and each Target Company maintains adequate internal management procedures governing size and status representations or certifications to prevent false representations or certifications and timely correct invalid representations or certifications.

(vi) Neither Seller nor any Target Company has received written notice of, and there is no alleged conduct that would be required to be disclosed to any Governmental Body in connection with the award, performance or closeout of any Government Contract or Government Bid. No Target Company has made any voluntary or mandatory disclosures with respect to any alleged material irregularity, material misstatement or material omission arising under or relating to any Government Contract or Government Bid. Each Target Company is in compliance with all ethical obligations imposed by the Federal Acquisition Regulation (48 C.F.R. § 1000 et seq.) (“FAR”), including the requirements to maintain a written code of business ethics and conduct and to diligently prevent, detect, and report criminal or otherwise unethical conduct found in FAR 52.203-13. There is no “credible evidence” (as defined in FAR) of any conduct requiring investigation to determine whether any Target Company is required to make any disclosures to any Governmental Body under the FAR ethics rules. Each Target Company has undertaken the required level of review or investigation to determine whether such Target Company is required to make any disclosures to any Governmental Body under the FAR ethics rules. To the Seller’s

17 Knowledge, there exist no facts or circumstances that, with the passage of time or the giving of notice or both, would constitute a violation of the FAR ethics rules. (vii) Each Target Company has made, in a timely and proper fashion, any and all material Claims to which it may be entitled and all appeals necessary to preserve its rights in connection with all Government Contracts.

No Target Company has any pending or, to the Seller’s Knowledge, potential Claim against the U.S. Government, any other Governmental Body or any prime contractor, higher or lower tier subcontractor or vendor arising under or relating to any Government Contract. (viii) The pricing, estimating and procurement systems relating to the Government Contracts have been disclosed to the Buyer and are in compliance in all material respects with all applicable Laws, including the FAR and the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (48 C.F.R. Chapter 2). (ix) There are no pending inquiries, investigations, audits, disputes or controversies with respect to any Government Contract or any violations of any Law relating to Government Contracts. No suspension, debarment, or exclusion proceeding actions with respect to Government Contracts have been commenced or, to the Seller’s Knowledge, threatened against any Target Company or its directors, officers, or employees. No circumstances exist that would reasonably result in the institution of suspension or debarment proceedings against any Target Company or its directors, officers, or employees. None of the Target Companies nor any of their respective directors, officers or employees has been (A) debarred or suspended from participation in, or the award of, any Government Contract or (B) is currently proposed for suspension or debarment. (x) There are no Claims, whether pending, or completed, or, to the Seller’s Knowledge, threatened, within the five (5)-year period preceding the Closing Date, relating to the performance or administration of Government Contracts by a Target Company. Each Target Company maintains systems of internal controls (including cost accounting systems, estimating systems, purchasing systems, proposal systems, billing systems, material management systems and document retention systems) that are in material compliance with all applicable requirements of all of the Government Contracts and all applicable Laws. There has been no, and there is no basis for, a finding of fraud, defective pricing, mischarging, or improper payments on the part of any of the Target Companies. No Target Company has been advised in writing by any Governmental Body or authorized officer thereof or point of contact of any prime contractor or subcontractor at any tier, that a Claim pertaining to any of its Government Contracts will take place or is under consideration.

18 (xi) Neither Seller nor any Target Company has engaged in any collusive bidding, defective pricing, over billing, conflicts of interest, undisclosed or unauthorized product substitution (including undisclosed or unauthorized use of foreign products) or improper time or expense charging or payment of gratuities with respect to any Government Contract, and all statements, Claims and certifications made in connection with any Government Contract were true, accurate and complete in all material respects when made. No payment has been made by any Target Company or by a Person acting on a Target Company’s behalf, to any Person (other than to any bona fide employee or agent of such Target Company, as defined in subpart 3.4 of the FAR) that is or was improperly contingent upon the award of any Government Contract or subcontract which would otherwise be in violation of any applicable procurement Law or any other Laws. (d) Neither Seller nor any Target Company (i) has assigned or otherwise conveyed or transferred, or agreed to assign, to any Person, any Government Contracts, or any amounts receivable, including accounts receivable and for completed but unbilled work, relating thereto, whether as a security interest or otherwise or (ii) except as set forth on Section 4.8(g) of the Disclosure Schedules, holds, or has since its incorporation held, a facility clearance, nor is a facility clearance necessary to conduct the Business as currently conducted. No personal property, equipment or fixtures have been loaned, bailed or otherwise furnished to any Target Company by or on behalf of any Governmental Body. (e) There exists no Claim and there exists no reasonable basis for a Claim, of any Liability against any Target Company by any Person as a result of defective cost and pricing data submitted to any Governmental Body, including cost and pricing data submitted to a Governmental Body through a prime contractor or higher-tier subcontract, including any such data relating to Liabilities accrued on any Target Company’s books or in its respective financial accounts. Neither Seller nor any Target Company has taken any action, nor is it a party to any Claim, that could reasonably be expected to give rise to (i) Liability under the False Claims Act or similar Law, or (ii) a Claim for price adjustment under the Truth in Negotiations Act or similar Law. (f) No Government Contract requires any Target Company to adopt Cost Accounting Standards as codified in Chapter 99 of Title 48 of the Code of Federal Regulations pursuant to the terms thereof. (g) Each Target Company and its applicable employees hold security clearances to the extent required, in all material respects, to perform Government Contracts of the type currently being performed by such Target Companies. Except to the extent prohibited by applicable Law, Section 4.8(g) of the Disclosure Schedules sets forth all facility security clearances held by each Target Company. No Target Company has received any notice and has no reason to believe that its employees holding security clearances issued by any Governmental Body are not in compliance with all applicable national security Laws. The facility security clearances listed on Section 4.8(g) of the Disclosure Schedules will not be terminated or downgraded as a result of completion of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement. 4.9.

(c) Leased Property. The Target Companies have good, valid and enforceable leasehold interests in the Leased Property, free and clear of all Encumbrances (other than Permitted Encumbrances). (d) Condition. All of the buildings, material fixtures and other improvements situated on the Leased Property and all other material items of property are in good operating and working condition and in a reasonable state of repair, ordinary wear and tear excepted, and maintenance of such items has not been deferred beyond a reasonable time period. (e) Binding Commitments. Except as set forth on Section 4.10(e) of the Disclosure Schedules, no binding commitment has been made by any Target Company or any of their Affiliates to any Governmental Body, utility company or any other organization, group or individual relating to the Real Property or any part thereof which imposes upon or could impose upon any such Target Company or any of their Affiliates an obligation to make any contribution or dedication of money or land or to construct, install or maintain any improvements of a public or private nature on or off such Real Property. No Target Company is bound by any options, obligations or rights of first refusal, rights of first title, rights of reverter, purchase options, or other similar contractual rights to sell, lease or acquire any real property. None of the reclamation Liabilities binding on the Target Companies with respect to any Real Property is substantially inconsistent (whether in terms of necessary monetary expenditures or required actions) with the reclamation obligations historically completed by the Target Companies with respect to the Real Property. Other than in the Ordinary Course of Business, the Target Companies have not deferred completion of any material reclamation Liability with respect to any Real Property. (f) Condemnation. No Target Company has received any written notice by any relevant Governmental Body or Persons of existing, pending or threatened (i) condemnation, expropriation, eminent domain or other similar proceeding or (ii) zoning, building code or other moratorium proceedings or similar matters which would reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the ability to operate the Real Property as each are currently operated.

21 Buyer. All Property Leases are currently and shall be valid, in full force and effect and binding in accordance with their respective terms immediately following the Closing, subject to (i) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance, or other Laws of general application relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, or (ii) as limited by Laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief, or other equitable remedies. (h) No Breach or Event of Default – Property Leases. With respect to the Property Leases, no Target Company has given nor received any notice in accordance with the Property Leases asserting an event of default or breach on the part of any party to the Property Leases and, to the Seller’s Knowledge, no event that, with the giving of notice or lapse of time or both would constitute a default, breach or event of default, or otherwise permit the termination, modification or acceleration of rent or other rights under such lease, has occurred and is continuing. No Target Company has given nor received any notice asserting that the Property Leases are not in full force and effect in accordance with their terms. All rental and other payments due under each of the Property Leases have been duly paid in accordance with the terms of such Property Leases. Except as set forth on Section 4.10(h) of the Disclosure Schedules, no Target Company has assigned, subleased or transferred any of its interest under any Property Lease to any other party. No Target Company has received notice of any assignment, transfer, mortgage or pledge of the lessor’s interest under any Property Lease or in any of the rents payable thereunder. Except as set forth on Section 4.10(h) of the Disclosure Schedules, the assignment of all of the Target Companies’ or their Affiliates’ right, title and interest in and to the Property Leases pursuant to this Agreement does not require the consent of any party to, and will not constitute a breach or an event of default under, or permit any party to terminate or change the existing terms of, any Property Lease. (i) Personal Property. Except as set forth on Section 4.10(i) of the Disclosure Schedules, each Target Company has good and valid title to all items of personal property owned by it, and a valid and enforceable leasehold interest in all tangible items of personal property leased by or licensed to it, in each case, free and clear of all Encumbrances (other than Permitted Encumbrances). The assets, properties and rights owned by the Target Companies are all the assets, properties and rights used by the Seller or the Target Companies in the operation of the Business in the Ordinary Course of Business. Except as set forth on Section 4.10(i) of the Disclosure Schedules, such equipment and other personal property has been maintained in accordance with good business practices (and such maintenance has been done in material compliance with all warranties), and is in good operating condition and repair (normal wear and tear excepted) and are suitable for the purposes for which they are presently used. None of the tangible personal property nor any of the assets of any of the Target Companies has been (i) operated or maintained other than in the Ordinary Course of Business or (ii) materially and adversely affected in any way as a result of any fire, explosion, earthquake, disaster, flood, erosion, accident or similar casualty, whether or not covered by insurance. (j) Intellectual Property. Section 4.10(j) of the Disclosure Schedules sets forth a complete and correct list of all intellectual property owned by any of the Target Companies, which indicates the owner, countries, registration and application numbers and dates for any such intellectual property (the “Company Intellectual Property”). Each Target Company has the right and authority to use all of the Company Intellectual Property in connection with the conduct of the Business in the manner presently conducted and such use is exclusive to the Target Companies, free from any

22 Encumbrances (other than Permitted Encumbrances) and does not conflict with, infringe upon or violate any third party’s intellectual property rights. There is no Litigation pending or, to the Seller’s Knowledge, threatened relating to the Company Intellectual Property. (k) Inventories. Except as set forth on Section 4.10(k) of the Disclosure Schedules, all inventory of the Target Companies reflected in the Financial Statements consists of a quality and quantity usable and salable in the Ordinary Course of Business, except for obsolete, damaged, defective, or slow-moving items that have been written off or written down to fair market value or for which adequate reserves have been established and recorded in the Financial Statements. All such inventory is owned by the relevant Target Company free and clear of all Encumbrances (other than Permitted Encumbrances), and no inventory is held on a consignment basis. The quantities of each item of inventory (whether raw materials or works-in-process) are not excessive, but are reasonable based upon the present circumstances of each Target Company. 4.11.

39 Companies, the Seller Parties, or their respective Representatives have been, and continue to be, subject to change and that any such projections are speculative in nature, and that it can be expected that some or all of the assumptions underlying such projections will not materialize or will vary significantly from the assumptions underlying such projections.

Further, the Buyer has taken full cognizance of and understands all of the risks related to the purchase of Acquired Equity. To the extent deemed necessary by the Buyer, it has retained, at its own expense, and relied upon, appropriate professional advice regarding the investment, tax and legal merits and consequences of purchasing and owning Acquired Equity.

(e) In the event the Buyer, any Target Company, or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity in such consolidation or merger, or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in either such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of the Buyer or such Target Company, as the case may be, shall assume all of the obligations set forth in this Section 6.2. 6.3. Books and Records. The Buyer shall, and shall cause the Target Companies to, until the third (3rd) anniversary of the Closing Date, retain all books, records and other documents pertaining to the business of the Target Companies in existence on the Closing Date and to make the same available for inspection and copying by the Sellers’ Representative at the expense of the Sellers’ Representative during the normal business hours of the Buyer or the Target Companies, as applicable, upon reasonable request and upon reasonable notice, and without material disruption to the business of the Buyer or the Target Companies for the purposes of making any required Tax or regulatory filing. If the Buyer or any Target Company shall desire to dispose of any of such books and records prior to the expiration of such three (3) year period, the Buyer shall, prior to such disposition, give the Sellers’ Representative a reasonable opportunity, at the Sellers’ Representative’s expense, to segregate and remove such books and records as the Sellers’ Representative may select. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, neither Buyer nor the Target Companies nor any of such Person’s Representatives shall be required to disclose any information to the Sellers’ Representative or any other Person if such disclosure would, in Buyer’s reasonable discretion, (a) jeopardize any attorney-client or other privilege (provided that Buyer shall use its reasonable best efforts to allow for such access (or as much of it as possible) in a manner that does not result in a loss of attorney-client privilege) or (b) contravene any applicable Law.

43 6.4. R&W Insurance Policy. As of the Closing Date, the Buyer has entered into a representations and warranties insurance policy by an insurer (the “R&W Insurer”) satisfactory to the Buyer in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents (the “R&W Insurance Policy”), a true and correct copy of which has been provided by the Buyer to the Sellers’ Representative. The Buyer shall be solely responsible for all fees, premiums, costs and expenses payable to the R&W Insurer (or broker) with respect to the purchase and implementation of the R&W Insurance Policy. The Buyer shall not amend the R&W Insurance Policy in any manner that is materially adverse to the Seller Parties (including with respect to the subrogation provisions). The Buyer hereby acknowledges and agrees that any limitations on liabilities, waivers, or releases set forth in this Agreement shall apply regardless of whether (a) the Buyer obtains or maintains the R&W Insurance Policy following the Closing Date, (b) the R&W Insurance Policy expires, is revoked, cancelled, or modified in any manner after issuance, or (c) the Buyer or any of its Affiliates makes a claim under the R&W Insurance Policy and such claim is denied by the R&W Insurer under such R&W Insurance Policy. 6.5. Tax Matters. (a) On or prior to the Closing Date, none of the Target Companies nor Seller Parties shall (i) revoke Seller’s election to be taxed as an S Corporation or any Target Company’s election to be taxed as a Qualified Subchapter S Subsidiary or (ii) take any action or allow any action (other than the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) that would cause Seller to no longer be treated as an S Corporation or a Target Company to no longer be treated as a Qualified Subchapter S Subsidiary. (b) No Seller Parties shall make an election under Section 336(e) of the Code with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any other Transaction Document. (c) Filing of Tax Returns. (i) Sellers’ Obligations. The Seller shall prepare and timely file, or cause to be prepared and timely filed, all Tax Returns of the Target Companies for taxable periods that end on or before the Closing Date and that are required to be filed after the Closing Date. All such Tax Returns shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past practice and without a change of any election or any accounting method (unless otherwise required by Law). The Sellers’ Representative shall provide copies of any Tax Return prepared by the Seller pursuant to this Section 6.5(c)(i) to the Buyer at least thirty (30) days prior to the due date (including extensions) for review and approval (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). The Seller shall include any income, gain, loss, deduction or other Tax items of the Target Companies through the Closing Date on Seller’s U.S. federal (and applicable state and local) income tax returns in a manner consistent with the Target Companies being classified as Qualified Subchapter S Subsidiaries (disregarded for federal income Tax purposes and taxable entities for Tennessee franchise and excise Tax purposes), in each case using the allocation methodology set forth in Section 6.5(d)(i). (ii) Buyer’s Obligations. The Buyer shall prepare and timely file, or cause to be prepared and timely filed, all Tax Returns of the Target Companies for any Straddle Periods. All such Tax Returns shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past practice and without a change of any election or any accounting method (unless otherwise required by Law). The Buyer shall provide

44 copies of any such Tax Return to the Sellers’ Representative at least thirty (30) days prior to the due date (including extensions) for review and approval (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). The Buyer shall timely pay or cause to be paid all Taxes due in respect of such Tax Returns. To the extent such Taxes are not taken into account in calculating Net Working Capital or Closing Indebtedness as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.6, the Seller shall pay to the Buyer an amount equal to the portion of the Taxes with respect to any such Tax Returns that consist of Indemnified Taxes no later than five (5) Business Days following the Buyer’s written demand therefor. The preparation and filing of any Tax Return of the Target Companies that does not relate to a Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be exclusively within the control of the Buyer. (d) Allocation of Taxes for Straddle Period. All Taxes that relate to a Straddle Period shall be allocated between the portion of the relevant taxable period ending on and including the Closing Date and the portion of such taxable period beginning after the Closing Date as follows: (i) The amount of any Taxes that are (A) based on or measured by income or receipts, (B) imposed in connection with the sale, transfer or assignment of property or (C) required to be withheld, shall in each case be allocated based on an interim closing of the books as of the close of business on the Closing Date; and (ii) The amount of all other Taxes shall be allocated by multiplying the amount of such Taxes for the relevant taxable period by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in such period ending on or beginning after the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire such period. (e) Tax Allocation and Gross-Up. (i) Tax Treatment. The parties acknowledge and agree that the purchase and sale of the Acquired Equity shall be treated for U.S. federal (and applicable state and local) income Tax purposes as a purchase and sale of the assets of the Target Companies subject to the liabilities of the Target Companies. The Parties agree to report such purchase and sale as such and shall take no position inconsistent therewith in any Tax Return, any proceeding before any Governmental Body, or otherwise. (ii) Allocation of Purchase Price. Within sixty (60) days after the Purchase Price is finally determined pursuant to Section 2.6, the Buyer will deliver a draft schedule to the Sellers’ Representative allocating the Purchase Price and any other amounts properly taken into account in the amount realized for U.S. federal income tax purposes among the assets of the Target Companies in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Asset Allocation”), and the Sellers’ Representative shall have fifteen (15) days to provide the Buyer with written comments to the Asset Allocation. The Buyer shall consider in good faith any comments to the Asset Allocation provided by the Sellers’ Representative within such fifteen (15) day period provided, however, that if the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative cannot agree on the Asset Allocation within a reasonable time thereafter, the Buyer, the Target Companies and the Seller Parties shall have no obligation to file Tax Returns in a manner consistent with the Asset Allocation. If an Agreement is reached by the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative in respect of the Asset Allocation, the Buyer, the Target Companies

45 and the Seller Parties shall file all Tax Returns in a manner consistent with the Asset Allocation, and any adjustments to the Asset Allocation that are required under Section 1060 of the Code as a result of an adjustment to the Purchase Price pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise shall be allocated in a manner consistent with Section 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder. (iii) Payment to Seller. Notwithstanding anything in the Agreement to the contrary, the Buyer will pay to the Seller, in immediately available funds by wire transfer, within ninety (90) days after the Purchase Price is finally determined pursuant to Section 2.6,, the amount of additional consideration that the Parties mutually agree is necessary to cause the Beneficial Owners’ after- tax net proceeds from a sale by the Seller of the Acquired Equity (assuming all net proceeds of the sale of the Acquired Equity after state, federal and local income taxes are taken into account are distributed to the Beneficial Owners to be equal to the after-Tax net proceeds that the Beneficial Owners would have received had the Beneficial Owners sold Seller Shares by taking into account all appropriate state, federal and local income Tax implications (the “Tax Adjustment”); provided, however, that the amount of the Tax Adjustment shall not exceed $26,000,000; and provided, further, that if the Parties cannot agree on the calculation of the Tax Adjustment within ninety (90) days after the Purchase Price is finally determined pursuant to Section 2.6, the Buyer shall pay $25,000,000 to the Seller, in immediately available funds by wire transfer, in full satisfaction of its obligations to pay the Tax Adjustment as set forth in this Section 6.5(e)(iii). (f) Contests. (i) Notice of Tax Claims. Each party hereto will promptly notify the other party in writing upon receipt by such party (or any of its Affiliates) of notice of any pending or threatened audit, examination or proceeding by a Governmental Body related to a Target Company for which other parties may be responsible pursuant to this Section 6.5 or Section 8 (a “Tax Claim”); provided, however, that the failure of such party to give prompt notice shall not relieve the other party of any of its obligations under this Section 6.5 or Section 8 except to the extent the other party can demonstrate actual prejudice as a result of such failure. (ii) Tax Claims for Pre-Closing Periods. The Seller Parties shall control and resolve any Tax Claim relating to any Pre-Closing Tax Period (other than the portion of a Pre-Closing Tax Period relating to any Straddle Period, the control and resolution procedures for which are described below in Section 6.5(f)(iii)) at the Seller Parties’ cost and expense; provided, however, that the Sellers’ Representative shall keep the Buyer reasonably informed with respect to any such Tax Claim and the Buyer shall have the right, at its own expense, to participate in, and consult with the Seller Parties regarding any such Tax Claim. The Seller Parties may not settle, compromise or resolve any such Tax Claim without the consent of the Buyer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. (iii) Tax Claims for Straddle Periods and Post-Closing Periods. The Buyer shall control and resolve any Tax Claim relating to any Straddle Period or Post-Closing Tax Period; provided that the Buyer shall keep the Sellers’ Representative reasonably informed with respect to any such Tax Claim relating to a Straddle Period and the Sellers’ Representative shall have the right, at its own cost and expense, to participate in, and consult with the Buyer regarding any such Tax Claim for a Straddle Period. Any settlement or other disposition of any Tax Claim relating to a Straddle

46 Period may only be made with the consent of the Sellers’ Representative and the Buyer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. The Buyer shall have sole control over any Tax Claim relating to a taxable period that begins after the Closing Date. (g) Tax Refunds. Any refund or credit relating to Taxes actually paid and ultimately borne by the Seller Parties or any Affiliate thereof (including, prior to the Closing, the Target Companies) that is listed on Schedule 6.5(g) (including any interest paid or credited with respect thereto), and which refund or credit is actually obtained by Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including the Target Companies) after the Closing, (a “Tax Refund”) shall be the property of the Seller Parties except to the extent such Tax Refund was taken into account in calculating Net Working Capital as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.6. Any Tax Refund for or with respect to any other Tax period (or portion thereof) shall be for the account of the Buyer. Each Party shall (and shall cause its Affiliates to) pay over to the Party entitled to receive a Tax Refund pursuant to this Section 6.5(g) the amount of such Tax Refund within ten (10) Business Days after such Tax Refund is received or otherwise utilized, net of any reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by such Party or its Affiliates in procuring such Tax Refund. (h) Transfer Taxes. Any Transfer Taxes resulting from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any other Transaction Document shall be borne fifty percent (50%) by the Buyer and fifty percent (50%) by the Seller Parties, regardless of the Person liable for such obligations under applicable Law or the Person making payment to the applicable Governmental Body or other third party. Either the Target Companies, the Buyer, or the Seller Parties shall, as obligated by applicable Law, prepare and timely file any Tax Return or other documentation with respect to any such Transfer Taxes and shall provide a copy of such Tax Return or other documentation to the non-preparing party for their review and approval (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). If one party is required by applicable Law to pay any such Transfer Taxes, the non-paying party shall promptly reimburse the paying party within ten (10) days of written request from the paying party in respect of such Transfer Taxes. The Seller Parties and the Buyer shall cooperate with each other and use their commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the amount of such Transfer Taxes. (i) Cooperation on Tax Matters. Each of the Buyer, the Target Companies, and the Seller Parties shall cooperate, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other parties, in connection with the preparation and filing of Tax Returns, and any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon any other party’s written request) the provision of records and information that are reasonably relevant to any such audit, litigation or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. Any information obtained pursuant to this Section 6.5 or pursuant to any other Section hereof providing for the sharing of information or review of any Tax Return or other schedule relating to Taxes with respect to the Target Companies shall be subject to Section 6.1 hereof and otherwise be kept confidential by the parties hereto and their respective legal and tax advisors. (j) Tax Treatment of Payments. Any payments made pursuant to Section 2.6, this Section 6.5 or Section 8 shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price by the parties for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by applicable Law.

47 (k) Survival. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the provisions of this Section 6.5 shall survive the Closing for the full period of all applicable statutes of limitations (giving effect to any waiver, mitigation or extension thereof) plus sixty (60) days. 6.6. Employee Matters. (a) Commencing as of the Closing and ending on the first (1st) anniversary of the Closing Date (or if earlier, the date of the employee’s termination of employment with the relevant Target Company), the Buyer shall, or shall cause the Target Companies to, provide each employee who continues to be employed by any Target Company immediately prior to the Closing Date and who continues to remain employed by any Target Company after the Closing (“Company Continuing Employee”) with: (i) a base salary or hourly wage that is no less than the base salary or hourly wage in effect for such Company Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing; (ii) target bonus opportunities (excluding any equity-based compensation), if any, which are no less than the target bonus opportunities (excluding all retention, transaction, change in control and equity-based compensation opportunities) provided to such Company Continuing Employee by any Target Company immediately prior to the Closing; (iii) retirement and welfare benefits (excluding severance, retention, change in control, defined benefit pension benefits and retiree health and welfare benefits) that are no less favorable in the aggregate than those provided to such Company Continuing Employee by any Target Company immediately prior to the Closing and (iv) severance benefits that are substantially similar to what Buyer and its Affiliates provides to, with respect to any applicable Company Continuing Employee, its similarly situated employees as of immediately prior to the Closing Date. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the parties acknowledge and agree that the programs set forth on Schedule 6.6(a) were treated as Indebtedness at Closing and shall be paid in the Ordinary Course of Business by the applicable Target Company. (b) With respect to any employee benefit plan maintained by the Buyer or its Affiliates (other than the Target Companies following the Closing) (collectively, “Buyer Benefit Plans”) in which any Company Continuing Employee will participate following the Closing Date, to the extent permissible under applicable Law, the Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Buyer Benefit Plans to, recognize all service of the such employees as if such service prior to the Closing Date had been service with the Buyer for vesting and eligibility purposes in any Buyer Benefit Plan in which such employees may be eligible to participate on or after the Closing Date; provided, however, such service shall not be recognized to the extent that such recognition would result in a duplication of benefits or the funding thereof for the same period of service or where such service credit was not taken into account under the analogous Company Benefit Plan in which the applicable Company Continuing Employee was participating immediately prior to the Closing. (c) This Section 6.6 shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each of the parties to this Agreement, and nothing in this Section 6.6, express or implied, shall confer upon any other Person any rights or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Section 6.6. Nothing contained herein, express or implied, shall be construed to establish, amend or modify any benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the terms set forth in this Section 6.6 shall not create any right in any Company Service Provider or any other Person (or any spouse, dependent or other beneficiary thereof) to any

48 continued employment with any such Target Company, the Buyer, or any of their respective Affiliates or compensation or benefits of any nature or kind whatsoever. 6.7. Non-Compete; Non-Solicitation. (a) In consideration of, among other things, the consideration provided by the Buyer pursuant to this Agreement, during the period from the Closing Date through the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Non-Compete Period”), none of the Seller Parties nor any of their respective Affiliates will: (i) directly or indirectly, engage or invest in, own, manage, operate, finance, control or participate in the ownership, management, operation, or control of, be employed by, be an agent or representative of, be a consultant or advisor to, be associated with, or render services to, any Person that engages in, competes with or conducts the Business, in Mississippi, Arkansas and the portion of Tennessee that is west of the western-most city limit of Nashville; provided, however, that each Seller Party and such Seller Party’s Affiliates shall be permitted to (A) own, lease, sell and manage commercial real estate and (B) passively own less than three percent (3%) of the outstanding shares of any class of securities of any enterprise that conducts such business (but without otherwise participating in the activities of such enterprise) if such securities are listed on any national or regional securities exchange or have been registered under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended; (ii) directly or indirectly, either for himself, herself, itself or any other Person, hire any of the officers or directors or other management-level individuals employed by, or who have been employed by such parties within the six (6) months prior to such hiring or solicitation in question, the Target Companies, the Buyer, their respective Affiliates and their respective successors or assigns, or solicit, encourage or engage in any activity to induce such persons to leave the employment of such Persons or to become employed by or to enter into a business relationship with any other Person; (iii) directly or indirectly, (A) seek business from any Customer (as defined below), or refer business from any Customer to any Person (other than the Target Companies or the Buyer) or (B) request, induce or attempt to limit or influence any Customer, employee, supplier or other business entity to limit, curtail, cancel or terminate any business it transacts with, or products it provides to or receives from any of the Target Companies or the Buyer. For purposes of this Section 6.7, the term “Customer” means any Person to which the Target Companies, the Buyer, their Affiliates or any of their predecessors, successors or assigns, provided goods or services during the two (2)- year period prior to the time at which any determination shall be made that any such Person is a Customer; or (iv) disparage the Business, any of the Target Companies or the Buyer or their respective Affiliates, businesses, officers, managers, members, directors, employees or respective predecessors, successors or assigns in any way which could adversely affect the goodwill, reputation or business relationships of the foregoing. (b) Each of the Seller Parties acknowledges that it has consulted legal counsel, the restrictions imposed by this Agreement are fully understood by each such Seller, are fair and reasonable, and

49 will not preclude such Seller from becoming gainfully employed following the execution of this Agreement. Each Seller further agrees that it will not challenge the reasonableness of the duration, scope and area restrictions in any Litigation with respect to the terms of this Section 6.7, regardless of who initiates such Litigation. (c) If any of the provisions of this Section 6.7 shall otherwise contravene or be invalid under the Laws of any state or other jurisdiction where it is applicable but for such contravention or invalidity, such contravention or invalidity shall not invalidate all of the provisions of this Section 6.7, but rather this Section 6.7 shall be reformed and construed, insofar as the Laws of such state or jurisdiction are concerned, as not containing the provision or provisions, but only to the extent that they are contravening or are invalid under the Laws of such state or jurisdiction, and the rights and obligations created hereby shall be reformed and construed and enforced accordingly. In the event of an alleged breach or violation by any of the Seller Parties of this Section 6.7, the Buyer shall have the right to pursue all legal remedies provided for herein and, notwithstanding recovery of any such remedy, the Non-Compete Period as to such Seller shall be tolled until such breach or violation has been cured. (d) Each of the Seller Parties acknowledges that the Buyer may have no adequate remedy at law and may suffer irreparable damage if any Seller Party breaches or fails to perform any of its obligations in this Section 6.7. Accordingly, each of the Seller Parties agrees that the Buyer shall have the right, in addition to any other rights which it may have, to seek specific performance and equitable injunctive relief if any of the Seller Parties shall fail or threaten to fail to perform any of their obligations in this Section 6.7. In connection therewith, each of the Seller Parties waives the claim or defense that adequate remedy at law exists. 6.8. Release. (a) Subject in all respects to the rights of the Buyer to enforce this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which the Seller Parties are a party against the Seller Parties and the rights of the Buyer to bring an action for Fraud against the Seller Parties, the Buyer agrees (and, from and after the Closing, the Target Companies agree) that none of the Seller Parties, their respective Affiliates, or any of their respective current or former officers, directors, employees, partners, members, managers, equityholders or Representatives, or any financial advisor or lender thereto, as of or prior to the Closing (the released parties other than the Seller Parties the “Seller- Connected Persons,” and, the Seller-Connected Persons together with the Seller Parties, the “Seller Releasees”) shall have any Liability to the Buyer, the Guarantor, their respective Affiliates, and each of their respective directors, managers, officers, employees, members, successors and permitted assigns (collectively, the “Buyer Releasors”) or the Target Companies for (and the Buyer for all the Buyer Releasors, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, hereby unconditionally releases (and from and after the Closing for the Target Companies hereby unconditionally releases) the Seller Releasees from) any Liability arising from or related to, in whole or in part, (i) such Seller-Connected Person’s direct or indirect ownership of equity interests in the Target Companies and (ii) such Seller-Connected Person’s director, manager, officer or employment position with the Target Companies prior to the Closing (collectively, the “Buyer Released Matters”).

50 (b) Subject in all respects to the rights of the Seller Parties to enforce this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which the Buyer is a party against the Buyer and the rights of the Seller Parties to bring an action for Fraud against the Buyer, each of the Seller Parties agrees that none of the Buyer, the Target Companies or their respective Affiliates, or any of their respective current or former officers, directors, employees, partners, members, managers, equityholders or Representatives, or any financial advisor or lender thereto, as of or prior to the Closing (the released parties other than the Buyer the “Buyer-Connected Persons,” and, the Buyer-Connected Persons together with the Buyer, the “Buyer Releasees”) shall have any Liability to any of the Seller Parties or their respective Affiliates, and each of their respective directors, managers, officers, employees, members, successors and permitted assigns (collectively, the “Seller Releasors”) for (and the Seller Parties for all the Seller Releasors, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, hereby unconditionally releases the Buyer Releasees from) any Liability arising from or relating to, in whole or in part, (i) the business or operations of the Target Companies conducted prior to the Closing, (ii) such Seller Releasor’s direct or indirect ownership of equity interests in the Target Companies and (iii) such Seller Releasor’s director, manager, officer or employment position with the Target Companies prior to the Closing (collectively, the “Seller Released Matters”).

Other Actions by Parties. (a) Each of the parties hereto shall use commercially reasonable efforts to take or cause to be taken all appropriate action, do or cause to be done all things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable and execute and deliver such documents and other papers, as may be reasonably required or requested to carry out the provisions of this Agreement and each of the other Transaction Documents and consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, but without in any manner limiting such party’s specific rights and obligations set forth in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. The Seller Parties shall assist the Buyer in connection with the preparation of any information required to be filed or furnished by it with the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including (a) providing information, documentation and assistance as reasonably requested by the Buyer in connection with the preparation of any financial statements relating to the Business as are required by the Buyer to satisfy the requirements under applicable securities Laws and (b) providing documentation reasonably requested by the Buyer in connection with the preparation of any Form 8-K. (b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if and for so long as any Seller Party or any of their respective Representatives are actively contesting or defending against any litigation with a third Party that is not an Affiliate of Buyer or the Target Companies in connection with (i) the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, or (ii) a matter at or prior to the Closing involving any Target Company, then the Buyer will reasonably cooperate with it and its counsel in the contest

51 or defense, make available its personnel at reasonable times, and provide such testimony and reasonable access to his, her or its, as the case may be, books and records as is necessary in connection with the contest or defense, all at such Seller’s sole cost and expense. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, neither Buyer nor the Target Companies nor any of such Person’s Representatives shall be required to disclose any information if such disclosure would, in Buyer’s reasonable discretion, (a) jeopardize any attorney-client or other privilege (provided that Buyer shall use its reasonable best efforts to allow for such access (or as much of it as possible) in a manner that does not result in a loss of attorney-client privilege) or (b) contravene any applicable Law. 6.10. Employee Retention Payments; Retention Cash Bonuses. (a) No later than the applicable Target Company’s next payroll date immediately following the one (1) year anniversary of Closing, Buyer shall cause the applicable Target Company to pay the Retention Payment to each Person listed on Section 6.10(a) of the Disclosure Schedules in the amount set forth opposite such Person’s name, net of withholding or other applicable Taxes, provided that such Person continues to be an employee of a Target Company as of such date. Any Retention Payment not payable pursuant to this Section 6.10(a) shall be promptly remitted by or on behalf of the Buyer to the Seller by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by the Seller in writing. (b) As of the Closing, Lehman shall grant retention bonuses (such bonuses, “Retention Bonuses”) to each Company Continuing Employee listed on Section 6.10(b) of the Disclosure Schedules in amounts (less all tax withholdings and other applicable deductions), and subject to the service-based vesting schedule, set forth opposite each such Company Continuing Employee’s name (the “Retention Bonus Pool”). Each Retention Bonus shall be granted pursuant to a form retention bonus award agreement established and provided by Buyer. To the extent that any Retention Bonus is forfeited or cancelled without payment, the unpaid portion of such forfeited or cancelled Retention Bonus shall not be available for further Retention Bonus grants or distribution to other recipients of a Retention Bonus. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in the other Transaction Documents, the Retention Bonus Pool shall not be deemed a Company Transaction Expense or Indebtedness. (c) The Target Companies have agreed to pay gratitude bonuses to certain of their employees in the aggregate amount set forth on Section 6.10(c) of the Disclosure Schedules (the “Gratitude Bonuses”). The aggregate amount of the Gratitude Bonuses shall be treated as Company Transaction Expenses; provided, however, that the Gratitude Bonuses will not be paid at Closing and instead shall be paid by the Target Companies within thirty (30) days after the Closing Date (less all tax withholdings and other authorized deductions).

The Sellers’ Representative shall take any and all actions that it believes are necessary or appropriate under this Agreement, the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement, and the other Transaction Documents, including, without limitation, executing the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement as Sellers’ Representative, giving and receiving any notice or instruction permitted or required under this Agreement or the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement by the Sellers’ Representative, interpreting all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement, the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement, and the other Transaction Documents, authorizing and receiving payments to be made or received (as the case may be) with respect hereto or thereto, obtaining reimbursement as provided for herein for all out-of-pocket fees and expenses and other obligations of or incurred by the Sellers’ Representative in connection with this Agreement, the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement, and/or the other Transaction Documents, defending all disputes pursuant to Section 2.6 hereof, consenting to, compromising or settling all disputes pursuant to Section 2.6, conducting negotiations with Buyer and its Representatives regarding such disputes, dealing with Buyer, its Representatives, and the Agent under this Agreement, the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement, and the other Transaction Documents, taking any other actions specified in or contemplated by this Agreement, the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement, or the other Transaction Documents, and engaging counsel, accountants or other Representatives in connection with the foregoing matters. 7.2. Authorization. The Sellers’ Representative shall have the authority to: (a) Receive all notices or documents given or to be given to the Seller Parties pursuant hereto or to the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement or in connection herewith or therewith and to receive and accept services of legal process in connection with any suit or proceeding arising under this Agreement, the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement, or the other Transaction Documents; (b) Engage counsel, accountants and other advisors, and incur other expenses in connection with this Agreement, the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement, or the other Transaction Documents, and the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, as the Sellers’ Representative may in its sole discretion deem necessary or appropriate; (c) Take such action as the Sellers’ Representative may in its sole discretion deem necessary or appropriate in respect of: (i) waiving any inaccuracies in the representations or warranties of Buyer contained in this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents; (ii) taking such other action as the Sellers’ Representative is authorized to take under this Agreement, the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement, or the other Transaction Documents; (iii) receiving all documents or certificates and making all determinations, in its capacity as Sellers’ Representative, required under this Agreement, the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement, or the other Transaction Documents; and (iv) all such actions as may be necessary to carry out any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement, or the other Transaction Documents, including, without limitation, the defense and/or settlement of any claims

54 against Seller Parties or for which Seller Parties may have responsibility and any waiver of any obligation of Buyer or the Target Companies; provided, however, that the Sellers’ Representative may not take any action that disparately and adversely affects any Seller Party as compared to each other Seller Parties without the consent of such Seller Party (including the Sellers’ Representative, in its capacity as a Seller Party); and (d) All decisions and actions (including documents executed and delivered) taken by the Sellers’ Representative, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall be binding upon all Seller Parties and no Seller shall have the right to object, dissent, protest or otherwise contest the same (except in the event of an action taken by the Sellers’ Representative in violation of the proviso in Section 7.2(c)). 7.3. Agency. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the Sellers’ Representative is not an agent of the Seller Parties, and shall have no duties to the Seller Parties or Liability to the Seller Parties with respect to any action taken, decision made or instruction given by the Sellers’ Representative in connection with this Agreement, the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement, or any of the other Transaction Documents. 7.4. Indemnification of Sellers’ Representative. The Sellers’ Representative shall be indemnified by the Seller Parties, on a pro rata basis, for and shall be held harmless against any loss, Liability or expense incurred by the Sellers’ Representative or any of its Affiliates and any of their respective Representatives or controlling persons, in each case, relating to the Sellers’ Representative’ conduct as Sellers’ Representative, other than losses, Liabilities or expenses resulting from the Sellers’ Representative’s willful misconduct in connection with its performance under this Agreement, the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement, and the other Transaction Documents. The Sellers’ Representative shall have the right to cause the satisfaction of some or all of such indemnification obligations using any then available proceeds of the Sellers’ Representative Expense Amount. The Sellers’ Representative may, in all questions arising under this Agreement, rely on the advice of counsel and for anything done, omitted or suffered in good faith by the Sellers’ Representative in accordance with such advice, and the Sellers’ Representative shall not be liable to the Seller Parties or the Agent or any other Person in connection therewith. In no event shall the Sellers’ Representative be liable hereunder or in connection herewith for any indirect, punitive, special or consequential damages. 7.5. Reasonable Reliance. In the performance of its duties hereunder, the Sellers’ Representative shall be entitled to (a) rely upon any document or instrument reasonably believed to be genuine, accurate as to content and signed by any Seller Party or any party hereunder and (b) assume that any Person purporting to give any notice in accordance with the provisions hereof has been duly authorized to do so. The Buyer shall be entitled to rely exclusively upon all actions taken or omitted to be taken by the Sellers’ Representative in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 7.6. Orders. The Sellers’ Representative is authorized, in its sole discretion, to comply with final, non-appealable Orders issued or entered by any Governmental Body of competent jurisdiction with respect to any dispute arising hereunder or under this Agreement, the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement, or the other Transaction Documents. If any portion of the Escrow Fund is disbursed to the Sellers’ Representative and is at any time attached, garnished or levied upon

55 under any Order, or in case the payment, assignment, transfer, conveyance or delivery of any such property shall be stayed or enjoined by any Order, or in case any Order shall be made or entered by any court affecting such property or any part thereof, then and in any such event, the Sellers’ Representative is authorized, in its sole discretion, but in good faith, to rely upon and comply with any such Order which it is advised by legal counsel selected by it is binding upon it without the need for appeal or other action; and if the Sellers’ Representative complies with any such Order, it shall not be liable to any Seller Party or to any other Person by reason of such compliance even though such Order may be subsequently reversed, modified, annulled set aside or vacated. 7.7. Removal of Sellers’ Representative; Authority of Sellers’ Representative. A majority in interest of the holders of Voting Stock (as defined in the Seller’s Organizational Documents) as calculated as of immediately prior to the Closing, voting together as a single class, shall have the right at any time to remove the then-acting Sellers’ Representative and to appoint a successor Sellers’ Representative; provided that such successor Sellers’ Representative may only be appointed with the prior written consent of the Buyer (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided, further, that neither such removal of the then acting Sellers’ Representative nor such appointment of a successor Sellers’ Representative shall be effective until the delivery to the Agent of executed counterparts of a writing signed by such majority in interest of the holders of the Voting Stock with respect to such removal and appointment, together with an acknowledgement signed by the successor Sellers’ Representative appointed in such writing that he, she or it accepts the responsibility of successor Sellers’ Representative and agrees to perform and be bound by all of the provisions of this Agreement, the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement, and the other Transaction Documents applicable to the Sellers’ Representative. For purposes of the above, a majority in interest of the holders of the Voting Stock shall be determined on the basis of each Beneficial Owner’s pro rata holdings of Voting Stock prior to the Closing. Each successor Sellers’ Representative shall have all of the power, authority, rights and privileges conferred by this Agreement upon the original Sellers’ Representative, and the term “Sellers’ Representative” as used herein and in the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement or any other Transaction Document shall be deemed to include any interim or successor Sellers’ Representative. 7.8. Expenses of the Sellers’ Representative. The Sellers’ Representative Expense Amount shall be held and controlled by the Sellers’ Representative to reimburse the out of pocket fees and expenses (including legal, accounting and other advisors’ fees and expenses, if applicable) incurred by the Sellers’ Representative in performing all of its duties and obligations under this Agreement, the Escrow and Paying Agent Agreement, and the other Transaction Documents. 8. INDEMNIFICATION; LIMITATIONS TO LIABILITIES. 8.1. Survival. (a) The representations and warranties of the parties set forth in this Agreement or any schedule, instrument or other document delivered pursuant to this Agreement, shall not survive the Closing Date and shall terminate effective as of the Closing Date, such that no claim, including, for the avoidance of doubt, pursuant to this Section 8, for breach of any representation or warranty, detrimental reliance or other right or remedy (whether in contract, in tort, or at law or in equity)

56 may be brought with respect to such representations and warranties after the Closing Date (other than for Fraud). (b) The covenants, obligations and agreements shall survive indefinitely unless the covenant, obligation or agreement specifies a different term, in which case such covenant, obligation or agreement shall survive for the period provided therein, if any, or until fully performed. The Seller Parties’ indemnification obligations under Section 8.3(d) shall survive the Closing until the date that is sixty (60) days following the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations period relating to the underlying claim. (c) The foregoing notwithstanding, any claim for Fraud on the part of any party may be asserted at any time prior to the expiration of any applicable statute of limitations applicable to Fraud. If at any time prior to the end of the applicable survival period, any party in good faith asserts any claim or demand hereunder with reasonable detail specifying the breach of particular representations, warranties and/or covenants, such claim or demand shall survive until finally resolved by agreement among the parties or by decision of a court of competent jurisdiction from which no further appeal may be taken. 8.2. Intent. The parties specifically and unambiguously intend that the survival periods that are set forth in Section 8.1 replace any statute of limitations that would otherwise be applicable and any corresponding Liability shall terminate concurrently with the expiration of such applicable survival period set forth in Section 8.1. 8.3. Indemnification by the Seller Parties. Subject to the limitations set forth herein, from and after the Closing, the Beneficial Owners, severally and not jointly, and the Seller shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Buyer, each of the Target Companies and their respective Affiliates and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, stockholders, agents, representatives, successors and assigns (the “Buyer Indemnities”) from and against all Losses to the extent arising or resulting directly or indirectly from any of the following items set forth below: (a) any breach or violation of any covenant, obligation or agreement of any of the Seller Parties contained in this Agreement that by their terms apply or are to be performed in whole or in part after the Closing; (b) any Closing Indebtedness to the extent not taken into account in the calculation of the Final Purchase Price Calculation Statement; (c) any Company Transaction Expenses, to the extent not taken into account in the calculation of the Final Purchase Price Calculation Statement; (d) any Indemnified Taxes; (e) any Transferred Assets; (f) any Litigation amongst the Seller Parties or the Sellers’ Representative; (g) any act of Fraud of any of the Seller Parties; and

57 (h) the items listed on Section 8.3(h) of the Disclosure Schedules (the “Specific Indemnity Matters”). 8.4. Indemnification by the Buyer. Subject to the limitations set forth herein from and after the Closing, the Buyer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Seller Parties and their respective Affiliates and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, stockholders, agents, representatives, successors and assigns (the “Seller Indemnities”) from and against all Losses to the extent arising or resulting directly or indirectly (a) any breach of or inaccuracy in any representation or warranty of Buyer contained in this Agreement, (b) any breach or violation of any covenant, obligation or agreement of the Buyer contained in this Agreement and (c) any act of Fraud of the Buyer. 8.5. Indemnification Procedures. (a) Direct Claims. If any party (the “Indemnified Party”) believes that a Claim exists or the imposition of any penalty or assessment (in each case other than any Claims, penalties or assessments with respect to Taxes, which for the avoidance of doubt shall be governed by Section 6.5) for which indemnity may be sought under Section 8.3 or 8.4 (a “Direct Claim”), and such Indemnified Party intends to seek indemnity pursuant to this Section 8, the Indemnified Party shall promptly provide the other party (the “Indemnifying Party”) with written notice of such Direct Claim, stating the nature, basis, the amount thereof (to the extent known or of a nature that can reasonably be estimated, which amount shall not be conclusive of the final amount of such Direct Claim), the method of computation thereof (to the extent known or of a nature that can reasonably be estimated), any other remedy sought thereunder, any relevant time constraints relating thereto, references to the provisions of this Agreement applicable thereto, and, to the extent practicable, any other material details pertaining thereto, along with copies of the relevant documents evidencing such Direct Claim and the basis for indemnification sought. The failure of the Indemnified Party to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced thereby. (b) Third Party Claims. (i) If any Indemnified Party receives written notice (or otherwise becomes aware) of the commencement of any Litigation or the assertion of any Claim by a third party or the imposition of any penalty or assessment (in each case other than any Claims, penalties, assessments or other Litigation with respect to Taxes, which for the avoidance of doubt shall be governed by Section 6.5) for which indemnity may be sought under Section 8.3 or 8.4 (a “Third Party Claim”), and such Indemnified Party intends to seek indemnity pursuant to this Section 8, the Indemnified Party shall promptly (but no later than thirty (30) calendar days of the earlier of receiving such written notice or becoming aware of such Third Party Claim) provide the Indemnifying Party with written notice of such Third Party Claim, stating the nature, basis, the amount thereof (to the extent known or of a nature that can reasonably be estimated, which amount shall not be conclusive of the final amount of such Third Party Claim), the method of computation thereof (to the extent known or of a nature that can reasonably be estimated), any other remedy sought thereunder, any relevant time constraints relating thereto, references to the provisions of this Agreement applicable thereto, and, to the extent practicable, any other material details pertaining thereto, along with copies of the

58 relevant documents evidencing such Third Party Claim and the basis for indemnification sought. The failure of the Indemnified Party to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced thereby. (ii) If the Indemnifying Party acknowledges in writing its obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party hereunder against any Losses that may result from such Third Party Claim within thirty (30) days of receipt of the claim notice, or such shorter period as the Indemnified Party may reasonably specify where such Third Party Claim relates to any matter which by its nature requires resolution in a shorter period, then the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim and, if it so chooses, to assume control of the defense thereof at its expense with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party and reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume control of such defense and shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel retained by the Indemnified Party if (A) the Third Party Claim relates to or arises in connection with any criminal Litigation, (B) the Third Party Claim seeks an injunction or equitable relief against the Indemnified Party or would, in the reasonable and good faith belief of the Buyer, be detrimental to the reputation or relations with customers or suppliers of any of the Target Companies or the Business, (C) the Indemnified Party has been advised by legal counsel that there is a conflict of interest between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party in the conduct of the defense of such Third Party Claim, (D) due to the limitations elsewhere in this Section 8, the Indemnifying Party’s indemnification obligation in respect of such Third Party Claim is less than the amount being sought (or that could be awarded in respect of any Third Party Claim for which consequential, special, punitive or exemplary damages are available), I the Indemnifying Party failed, is failing to or refuses to prosecute or adequately defend such Third Party Claim or (F) the assumption of the defense by the Indemnifying Party is likely to cause the Buyer or any of the Target Companies to lose coverage under the R&W Insurance Policy and the R&W Insurance Policy does not otherwise require the R&W Insurer under such policy or the Buyer or any of the Target Companies to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim. (iii) If the Indemnifying Party undertakes to defend against such Third Party Claim: (A) the Indemnifying Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to defend and protect the interests of the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party Claim including defending the Third Party claim actively and diligently; and (B) the Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, consent to any settlement or the entry of any judgment which (1) does not contain an unconditional release of the Indemnified Party from the subject matter of the settlement, (2) would provide for any admission of criminal liability or any injunctive relief or other non-monetary obligation affecting the Indemnified Party or (3) would have an adverse effect on the future Losses or other Liabilities, trading relationships or goodwill of the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to (whether explicitly or by its actions) defend any Third Party Claim, fails to notify the Indemnified Party of its election as herein provided, contests its obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party for Losses relating to such Third Party Claim under this Agreement or is not entitled to assume the defense of any Third Party Claim, 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 because the Indemnifying Party in not entitled to or elects not to defend such Third Party Claim, then the Indemnifying Party shall reimburse the Indemnified Party for the costs and expenses (including

59 legal fees and expenses) of defending such Third Party Claim within fifteen (15) days of submission of periodic bills. (iv) Subject to Section 8.5(b)(iii), the party not controlling the defense of a Third Party Claim (the “Non-controlling Party”) may participate therein at its own expense; provided, however, that an Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in any such defense with separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party if (A) so requested by the Indemnifying Party to participate or (B) 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. The party controlling such defense (the “Controlling Party”) will keep the Non-controlling Party reasonably advised of the status of such suit or proceeding and the defense thereof and will consider in good faith recommendations made by the Non-controlling Party with respect thereto. The Non-controlling Party will furnish the Controlling Party with such relevant information as it may have with respect to such Litigation (including copies of any summons, complaint or other pleading which may have been served on such party and any written Claim, demand, invoice, billing or other document evidencing or asserting the same) and will otherwise cooperate with and, at the reasonable request of the Controlling Party, assist the Controlling Party in the defense of such Litigation and will give the Controlling Party and its counsel, during normal business hours and upon reasonable advance notice, access to the relevant business records and other documents, and shall permit them to consult with the employees and counsel of the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense, appeal or settlement proceedings of the Third Party Claim in accordance herewith, the Indemnified Party will not admit any Liability, file any papers or consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement agreement, compromise or discharge with respect to the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). 8.6. Limitation of Liability. (a) The right to indemnification and all other remedies based on any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation of the Seller Parties or the Target Companies contained in or made pursuant to this Agreement shall not be affected by any investigation conducted with respect to, or any knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired) at any time, whether before or after the date the Closing occurs, with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of or compliance with, any such representation, warranty, covenant or obligation. (b) The amount of any Loss for which indemnification is provided under this Section 8 or Section 6.5 shall be net of any amounts actually recovered by the Indemnified Party (including under the R&W Insurance Policy, as applicable, and other insurance policies) with respect to such Loss, net of out-of-pocket costs and expenses of obtaining such recoveries or insurance proceeds (which, with respect to insurance proceeds, shall not include any applicable premiums or deductibles, but shall take into account any subsequent increases in premiums resulting from the payment of any such proceeds). (c) If an Indemnified Party recovers an amount from a third party in respect of Losses that are the subject of indemnification hereunder after all or a portion of such Losses have been paid by an Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Section 8 or Section 6.5, then the Indemnified Party shall

60 promptly remit to the Indemnifying Party the excess (if any) of (i) (A) the amount paid by the Indemnifying Party in respect of such Losses, plus (B) the amount received by the Indemnified Party in respect thereof, minus (ii) the full amount of the Losses. (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, other than Fraud, all Losses incurred by the Buyer that arise from, relate to, or are in connection with any inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Seller Parties or the Target Companies in this Agreement shall be paid and satisfied solely from the R&W Insurance Policy. (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, but subject to Section 10.19(e), the maximum aggregate, cumulative liability of (i) the Seller Parties for any and all Losses arising pursuant to this Agreement or in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby shall not exceed the Purchase Price actually received by the Seller Parties, and (ii) the Buyer for any and all Losses arising pursuant to this Agreement or in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby shall not exceed the Purchase Price. (f) Each party shall, and shall cause its respective Affiliates to, take all reasonable steps to mitigate any Loss indemnifiable hereunder upon and after becoming aware of any event that could reasonably be expected to give rise to any Loss. No party shall be entitled to any payment, adjustment or indemnification more than once with respect to the same matter. 8.7. Recovery; Payments. (a) With respect to any indemnifiable Losses incurred where the Indemnified Party is a Buyer Indemnitee, such Losses shall be recovered (i) first, from the Specific Indemnity Escrow Amount, (ii) second, from the Seller, and (iii) third, from the Beneficial Owners, severally and not jointly (in each case, subject to the limitations in this Section 8). (b) The Seller Parties (if the Indemnified Party is a Buyer Indemnitee) or the Buyer (if the Indemnified Party is a Seller Indemnitee) will pay or cause to be paid all amounts payable to this Section 8, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, promptly following receipt from an Indemnified Party of a written notice, for a Loss that is the subject of indemnification hereunder, unless the Sellers’ Representative (if the Indemnified Party is a Buyer Indemnitee) or the Buyer (if the Indemnified Party is a Seller Indemnitee) in good faith timely disputes the Loss, in which event it will so notify the Indemnified Party. In any event, the Seller Parties (if the Indemnified Party is a Buyer Indemnitee) or the Buyer (if the Indemnified Party is a Seller Indemnitee) will pay or cause to be paid to the Indemnified Party, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, the amount of any Loss for which it is liable hereunder no later than five (5) Business Days following any final determination of such Loss and the Indemnifying Party’s liability therefor. A “final determination” will exist when (i) the parties to the dispute have reached an agreement in writing, (ii) a court of competent jurisdiction will have entered a final Order, or (iii) an arbitration or like panel will have rendered a final determination, in each case, with respect to disputes the parties have agreed to submit thereto. Any payments made pursuant to this Section 8 or pursuant to Section 6.5 shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price by the parties for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by applicable Law.

61 8.8. Exclusive Remedy. Each of the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all Claims (other than Claims (a) arising on the basis of Fraud and (b) pursuant to Section 2.6 and Section 6.5 with respect to the matters covered thereby) for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, including any claim for detrimental reliance, breach of contract or other right or remedy (whether in contract, in tort, at law or in equity) shall be pursuant to the provisions set forth in this Section 8. Nothing in this Section 8.8 shall limit any Person’s right to seek and obtain any relief to which any Person shall be entitled pursuant to Section 10.10. Further, nothing herein will be deemed to limit any right or remedy of the Buyer under the R&W Insurance Policy (or any obligation of any R&W Insurer thereunder). 8.9. Other Indemnity Matters. (a) Following the Closing, each of the parties hereto (at Seller’s sole cost and expense) shall use commercially reasonable efforts to take or cause to be taken all appropriate action, do or cause to be done all things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable and execute and deliver such documents and other papers, as may be reasonably required in connection with the remediation and correction of any non-compliance or other Liability related to the Specific Indemnity Matters. (b) On or prior to the fifth (5th) Business Day following (a) December 31, 2024, the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative shall deliver joint written notice to the Agent instructing it to pay $500,000 to Seller from the Specific Indemnity Escrow Fund, less any amounts then in dispute or amounts claimed against the Target Companies or the Business related to any of the Specific Indemnity Matters, (b) December 31, 2025, the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative shall deliver joint written notice to the Agent instructing it to pay $1,000,000 to Seller from the Specific Indemnity Escrow Fund, less (i) any amounts then in dispute or amounts claimed against the Target Companies or the Business related to any of the Specific Indemnity Matters and (ii) any previous disbursements from the Specific Indemnity Escrow Fund, and (c) December 31, 2026, the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative shall deliver joint written notice to the Agent instructing it to pay any remaining funds then held in the Specific Indemnity Escrow Fund to Seller, less any amounts then in dispute or amounts claimed against the Target Companies or the Business related to any of the Specific Indemnity Matters. 9. DISCLOSURE SCHEDULES. Certain information set forth in the disclosure schedules delivered by the Seller Parties and the Target Companies to the Buyer concurrently with the execution of this Agreement (the “Disclosure Schedules”) is included therein solely for informational purposes and may not be required to be disclosed pursuant to this Agreement. The disclosure of any information shall not be deemed to constitute an acknowledgment that such information is required to be disclosed in connection with the representations and warranties made by the Target Companies, or the Seller Parties in this Agreement or that such information is material, nor shall such information be deemed to establish a standard of materiality, nor shall it be deemed an admission of any liability of, or concession as to any defense available to, Buyer, the Target Companies, the Seller Parties, or the Sellers’ Representative (on behalf of the Seller Parties), as applicable. The section number headings in the Disclosure Schedules correspond to the section numbers in this Agreement and any information disclosed in any section of the Disclosure Schedules shall be deemed to be disclosed and incorporated into any other section of

62 the Disclosure Schedules where the relevance of such disclosure is reasonably apparent on its face, whether or not there is a schedule reference in such other section; provided, however, that the parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to include such applicable schedule cross- references in each Section of the Disclosure Schedules regardless of whether the relevance of such disclose is reasonably apparent of its face. 10. GENERAL PROVISIONS. 10.1. Notices. (a) All notices and other communications given or made pursuant to this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents (unless otherwise specified therein) shall be in writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon the earlier of actual receipt, or (i) personal delivery to the party to be notified, (ii) when sent, if sent by electronic mail during normal business hours of the recipient, and if not sent during normal business hours, then on the recipient’s next Business Day, (iii) five (5) days after having been sent by registered or certified U.S. mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or (iv) one (1) Business Day after deposit with a nationally recognized overnight courier, freight prepaid, specifying next Business Day delivery, with written verification of receipt.

Consent to Transaction and Waiver of Purchase Rights. By execution hereof, each Target Company and each Seller Party hereby (a) consents to each other Seller selling, transferring, or assigning any Acquired Equity and other securities pursuant to, and otherwise consummating the transactions contemplated in, this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, and (b) waives and relinquishes any of its rights under that certain Shareholder Agreement dated March 3, 2021, including any preemptive rights, rights of first refusal, or similar rights directly or indirectly affecting any of such Acquired Equity and other securities (including, without limitation, any of its rights to receive advanced written notice of the same). 10.3. Mutual Drafting. The parties hereto are sophisticated and have been represented by attorneys throughout the transactions contemplated hereby who have carefully negotiated the provisions hereof. As a consequence, the parties do not intend that the presumptions of Laws or rules relating to the interpretation of contracts against the drafter of any particular clause should

63 be applied to this Agreement or any agreement or instrument executed in connection herewith, and therefore waive their effects. 10.4. Assignment. Except as expressly permitted by the terms hereof, neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned or delegated (a) by the Buyer or post-Closing, by any Target Company without the prior written consent of the Sellers’ Representative, or (b) by a Seller Party or pre-Closing, by any Target Company without the prior written consent of the Buyer; provided, however, that the Buyer may, following the Closing and without consent of any other party, assign any of its rights or obligations pursuant to this Agreement (i) to any Affiliate of Buyer, or (ii) (in whole or in part) to any subsequent purchaser of all or the material portion of the assets or equity of the Target Companies. Any attempted assignment in violation of this Section 10.4 shall be null and void. 10.5. Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Agreement or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible. 10.6.
