(a) Within 120 days after Closing, the Purchasers shall cause FB to prepare and deliver to the Sellers’ Representative an unaudited statement, setting forth the relevant calculations as of the Effective Time of (a) the Purchase Price and (b) the following specific components thereof: (i) the Available Cash, (ii) the Company Debt, (iii) the Net Working Capital (the “Final Net Working Capital”), (iv) the Final Net Working Capital Adjustment, and (v) the Transactions Expenses (such written estimates, together with reasonable supporting detail demonstrating the basis for the calculation thereof are collectively referred to as the “Post-Closing Adjustment Statement”). For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if, after 120 days of the Closing Date, any accounts receivable that were reflected as a current asset in the calculation of the Estimated Net Working Capital set forth in the Pre-Closing Adjustment Statement have not been collected by FB, then such uncollected accounts receivable, or portion thereof, shall not be deemed to be a current asset for purposes of calculating the Final Net Working Capital. Purchasers and their Affiliates shall use commercially reasonable efforts following the Closing Date to collect accounts receivable reflected as a current asset in the calculation of the Estimated Net Working Capital, and if any such account receivable is uncollected after 120 days of the Closing Date but is later paid, the Purchasers shall pay to the Sellers’ Representative within fifteen (15) days of such collection the amount of such collected receivable. The Post-Closing Adjustment Statement shall be prepared in accordance with ASPE, using the same accounting methods, policies, practices, principles and procedures

19

with consistent classifications, judgments and methodologies as were used in connection with preparing the Interim Balance Sheet, consistent with the calculation of the Net Working Capital set forth in Exhibit F and shall exclude the effects of Transactions. The Seller Parties shall pay one-half of the cost of the preparation of the Post-Closing Adjustment Statement and the Purchasers shall pay one-half.

(b) During the 15 day period following the Sellers’ Representative’s receipt of the Post-Closing Adjustment Statement, the Sellers’ Representative and his Representatives shall be permitted, upon reasonable request, reasonable access to review all working papers, documents and records used by the Purchasers to prepare the Post-Closing Adjustment Statement during normal business hours and make copies reasonably required of the working papers of the Purchasers relating to the preparation of the Post-Closing Adjustment Statement. In connection with the delivery of any working papers, the Sellers’ Representative and its Representatives, the Companies, the Subsidiaries and their respective accountants shall execute and deliver such customary access and confidentiality agreements, releases, waivers or other documents as may be reasonably requested by the Purchasers. The Post-Closing Adjustment Statement shall become final and binding upon the parties hereto on the 15^th day following delivery thereof, except to the extent that the Sellers’ Representative gives a written notice of disagreement with the Post-Closing Adjustment Statement (the “Notice of Disagreement”) to the Purchasers prior to such date. Any Notice of Disagreement shall specify in reasonable detail the nature of any disagreement so asserted and the dollar amount of such disputed items. If a Notice of Disagreement complying with the preceding sentence is received by the Purchasers prior to the 15^th day following delivery of the Post-Closing Adjustment Statement, then the Post-Closing Adjustment Statement (as revised in accordance with clause (x) or (y) below) shall become final and binding on the parties hereto on the earlier of (x) the date the Purchasers and the Sellers’ Representative resolve in writing any difference they have with respect to the matters specified in the Notice of Disagreement or (y) the date all disputed matters are finally resolved in writing by the Accounting Firm.

(c) During the 15 day period following the delivery of a Notice of Disagreement that complies with the preceding paragraph, the Purchasers and the Sellers’ Representative shall seek in good faith to resolve in writing any differences that they may have with respect to the matters specified in the Notice of Disagreement. During such period each party and its independent auditors shall be permitted to review and make copies reasonably required of (1) the working papers of the other party and, if relevant, the party’s designated independent accountants relating to the preparation of the Post-Closing Adjustment Statement or the Notice of Disagreement and (2) any other supporting documentation relating to the preparation of the Post-Closing Adjustment Statement or the Notice of Disagreement. If, at the end of such 15 day period, the differences as specified in the Notice of Disagreement are not resolved, an independent public accounting firm to be mutually agreed to in writing by both the Purchasers and the Sellers’

20

Representative (the “Accounting Firm”) shall review and resolve any and all matters which remain in dispute and which are properly included in the Notice of Disagreement. In resolving any such disputed items, the Accounting Firm (x) shall be bound by the provisions of this Section 2.07 and the definitions of Available Cash, Company Debt, Final Net Working Capital, Final Net Working Capital Adjustment and Transactions Expenses, and the definitions included in such definitions, (y) shall be limited in its decision with regard to each disputed item to the maximum amount claimed by the Purchasers or the Sellers’ Representative and the minimum amount claimed by the Purchasers or the Sellers’ Representative regarding such disputed item, and limited to the materials submitted by the Purchasers or the Sellers’ Representative and shall not conduct any independent investigation, and (z) shall limit its review solely to such disputed items and whether the Post-Closing Adjustment Statement has been prepared in accordance with this Section 2.07. The Sellers’ Representative and the Purchasers shall instruct the Accounting Firm to render a decision resolving the matters in dispute within 15 days following the submission of such matters to the Accounting Firm. The decision of the Accounting Firm with respect to such disputed items shall be final and binding upon the Purchasers and the Seller Parties (and precludes the bringing of any Proceeding, other than Proceedings to enforce the Accounting Firm’s decision in accordance with this Agreement) and the Post-Closing Adjustment Statement shall be revised as necessary to reflect the Accounting Firm’s decisions. The fees and disbursements of the Accounting Firm and the reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses of the Purchasers and the Sellers’ Representative relating to the disputes submitted to the Accounting Firm shall be borne (A) by the Sellers’ Representative (on behalf of the Sellers) in that proportion equal to a fraction (expressed as a percentage), the numerator of which is equal to the disputed amount claimed by the Sellers’ Representative minus the total disputed amount determined by the Accounting Firm, and the denominator of which is equal to the total disputed amount claimed by the Sellers’ Representative minus the amount claimed by the Purchasers and (B) by the Purchasers in that proportion equal to a fraction (expressed as a percentage) equal to one minus the fraction described in clause (A). For example, if (x) the Sellers’ Representative claims that a disputed item should be $5,000,000 and the Purchasers claim that such disputed item should be $4,000,000, (y) the Accounting Firm determines that such disputed item should be $4,600,000 and (z) such fees, disbursements and expenses are $50,000, then (A) the Sellers’ Representative (on behalf of the Sellers) shall pay $20,000 (40%) and (B) the Purchasers shall pay $30,000 (60%).

2.08 Payment of Purchase Price. Immediately after the Post-Closing Adjustment Statement becomes final and binding upon the parties hereto in accordance with Section 2.07, the Purchase Price shall be calculated therefrom. No later than the fifth (5^th) Business Day following such final determination of the Purchase Price:

(a) If the Purchase Price is less than the Preliminary Purchase Price, then the Sellers’ Representative (on behalf of the Sellers) shall pay or cause to be paid to the Purchasers, by wire transfer of immediately available funds (in accordance with wire transfer instructions provided by the Purchasers within two (2) Business Days of the final determination of the Purchase Price), an amount equal to such difference.

21

(b) If the Purchase Price is greater than the Preliminary Purchase Price, then the Purchasers shall pay or cause to be paid to the Sellers’ Representative, in its capacity as paying agent (for the benefit of the Sellers), by wire transfer of immediately available funds (in accordance with wire transfer instructions provided by the Sellers’ Representative within two (2) Business Days of the final determination of the Purchase Price), an amount equal to such difference.

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, failure to make any payment required under this Section 2.08 shall not be subject to the Basket or form part of any maximum indemnification amounts under Article VIII.

2.09 Contingent Consideration.

(a) Calculation. The Sellers (by way of assignment from FB as part of the Distribution) shall be entitled to receive, and the Purchasers shall be jointly and severally responsible to pay (or cause to be paid), additional consideration for the Intangibles Purchase (all such consideration and amounts, collectively, the “Contingent Consideration”), the aggregate amount of which Contingent Consideration shall be sum of the amounts calculated pursuant to Exhibit I.

The Purchasers shall pay the Sellers’ Representative (on behalf of the Sellers) the accrued and previously unpaid portion of the Contingent Consideration at the end of each calendar quarter after the Closing (commencing with the end of the first full calendar quarter after the Closing).

(c) Earnout Notice.

(iii) the total Contingent Consideration paid to the Sellers’ Representative (on behalf of the Sellers) during such calendar year and the then current aggregate total during the Earnout Period; and

(iv) the total accrued but unpaid Contingent Consideration.

(d) Right to Inspect Books and Records; Contingent Consideration Dispute Resolution.

(i) Section 2.07(b) and Section 2.07(c) of this Agreement shall apply mutatis mutandis to this Section 2.09(d); for the avoidance of doubt, the “Post-Closing Adjustment Statement” shall be read as an “Earnout Notice,” references to “Section 2.07” shall be read as “Section 2.09”, and the Accounting Firm shall be bound by the definitions used in this Section 2.09 (and the definitions included in such definitions).

(ii) Payment of any amounts that the Purchasers and the Sellers’ Representative (on behalf of the Sellers) determine are owed to one or the other or that the Accounting Firm determines to be owed to the Sellers or the Purchasers, as applicable, pursuant to this Section 2.09(d) shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds within five Business Days after such determination; for the avoidance of doubt, if amounts are owed to the Sellers, the Purchasers shall pay such amounts to the Sellers’ Representative in his capacity as paying agent (for the benefit of the Sellers).

(e) Offset. The Purchasers shall have the right to withhold and offset against any amount otherwise due to be paid to the Sellers pursuant to this Section 2.09 the amount of any Losses to which any Purchaser Indemnified Party may be entitled under Article VIII (but only after final determination of any such amount due pursuant to Article VIII).

(f) Tax Treatment. Each Purchaser, FB and each Seller agrees to treat any Contingent Consideration (which the Parties currently value at $10,000,000) paid by the Purchasers to the Sellers pursuant to this Section 2.09 as additional consideration paid in connection with the Intangibles Purchase pursuant to this Agreement for all applicable Tax purposes, and neither any Purchaser, FB nor any Seller shall take a position on any Tax Return or other filings, or its books and records, that is inconsistent with this treatment, unless required by a change of Law effective after the date of this Agreement or a determination of a Governmental Authority that is final; provided, however, that a portion of Contingent Consideration shall be treated as interest under applicable provisions of the Code or other applicable Tax Laws.

23

(g) Successors; Transferability; Assignability; Contract Right.

5.03 Benefits.

(a) Continuation of Employment; Benefits. The Purchasers hereby agree that they shall, or shall cause FB and each Subsidiary to (i) employ its employees immediately after the Closing Time (the “Continuing Employees”) except only those employees listed on Exhibit D, (ii) cause FB and each Subsidiary to provide each of the Continuing Employees, immediately after the Closing Time, with at least the same level of base salary and wages as was provided to the Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing Time; and (iii) except as provided in (b), below, cause FB and each Subsidiary to provide each Continuing Employee, immediately after the Closing Time, with employee benefits that are in the aggregate not materially less advantageous than the benefits provided to the Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing Time under the Employee Benefit Plans. For clarity, this provision is not intended to impose any limitation on the ability of the Purchasers or FB or a Subsidiary to change salary and wages, or employee benefits, with respect to an employee after the Closing Time, and nothing in this Agreement will obligate the Purchasers or FB or a Subsidiary to continue the employment of any Continuing Employee or other individual for any specific period after the Closing Time.

(b) No Third Party Rights. The provisions of this Section 5.03 are solely for the benefit of the parties hereto and nothing in this Section 5.03, express or implied, shall confer upon any current or former employee, or legal representative or beneficiary thereof, any rights or remedies, including any right to employment or continued employment for any specified period, or compensation or benefits of any nature or kind whatsoever under this Agreement. Nothing in this Section 5.03, express or implied, shall be (i) deemed an amendment of any Employee Benefit Plan providing benefits to any Continuing Employee, or (ii) construed to prevent Purchasers or its Affiliates from terminating or modifying to any extent or in any respect any employee benefit plan that Purchasers or its Affiliates may establish or maintain. For further clarity, this Section 5.03, is not intended to and does not impose any limitation on the ability of the Purchasers or FB or a Subsidiary to change any term of the Continuing Employees’ employment, including compensation, after the Closing Time and does not in any way obligate the Purchasers or FB or a Subsidiary to continue the employment of any Continuing Employee or other individual for any specific period after the Closing Time.

5.04 Tax Matters.

(a) Transfer Taxes. All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other such Taxes, and all conveyance fees, recording charges and other fees and charges (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with the consummation of the Transactions shall be paid by the Purchasers (referred to herein as “Transfer Taxes”). The Sellers and the Purchasers shall cooperate in reducing or mitigating the amount of any Transfer Taxes that may be payable and in the preparation, execution and filing of all Tax Returns, questionnaires, applications or other documents regarding any Transfer Taxes that become payable in connection with the Transactions and that are required or permitted to be filed at or before the Closing.

51

(b) Final Tax Returns. FB and each Subsidiary, under the direction and control of the Sellers’ Representative, shall prepare and file, in each case at Sellers’ expense and in a manner consistent with past practice, all Tax Returns required to be filed by it for any Tax period ending on or prior to the Closing Date, and the Sellers shall pay all Taxes reflected thereon, to the extent that such Taxes are not reflected as a reduction in the final Post-Closing Adjustment Statement. The Tax Returns will be signed by an officer of FB or of a Subsidiary, as applicable. Within at least ten (10) days prior to filing, Sellers’ Representative shall provide the Purchasers with copies of all such Tax Returns for its review and consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Any such Tax Returns under this Section 5.04(b) and the payment of Taxes reflected thereon shall be prepared on the basis of an election filed under subsection 256(9) to have the taxation year end associated with the acquisition of control of FB occur at 9:03 a.m. (Houston, Texas time) on the Closing Date following the Intangibles Purchase and the Distribution, such that the tax consequences of the Intangibles Purchase and the Distribution shall be reflected as having occurred in the Tax Returns for FB under this Section 5.04(b) for the Tax period ending at 9:03 a.m. on the acquisition of control of FB.

(c) Tax Sharing Agreements. All Tax sharing agreements or similar agreements with respect to or involving FB or involving a Subsidiary shall be terminated as of the Closing Time and, after the Closing Time, neither FB nor any Subsidiary shall be bound thereby or have any liability thereunder.

(d) Tax Return Preparation and Cooperation. The Purchasers, the Sellers, FB and each Subsidiary shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other parties, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns, and any audit, litigation or other Proceeding with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other parties’ request in connection with a Tax audit) the provision of records and information which are reasonably relevant to any such Tax Return, or 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. The Purchasers, the Sellers, FB and each Subsidiary agree (i) to retain or cause to be retained all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to FB and each Subsidiary relating to any Tax period beginning before the Closing Date until sixty (60) days following the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (and, to the extent notified by the Purchasers or the Sellers, any extensions thereof) of the respective Tax periods, and to abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any Tax authority, (ii) to provide to the other party, upon request, all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to FB and each Subsidiary relating to any taxable period

52

beginning before the Closing Date until sixty (60) days following the expiration of the statute of limitations (and, to the extent notified by the Purchasers or the Sellers, any extensions thereof) of the respective periods, and (iii) to give the other parties reasonable written notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any such books and records and, if any of the other parties so requests, the other parties shall allow such requesting party to take possession of such books and records.

(e) Straddle Periods. The following provisions shall apply with respect to allocating Taxes imposed on FB and each Subsidiary that are attributable to a Straddle Period:

(i) in the case of any Tax that is not described in Section 5.04(e)(ii), and pertains or is attributable to a Straddle Period, the amount of such Tax attributable to the portion of such Straddle Period ending on and including the Closing Date shall be determined based on an interim closing of the books as of the close of business on the Closing Date; and

(ii) in the case of any real property, personal property, ad valorem and similar Taxes (“Property Tax”) attributable to a Straddle Period, the amount of such Property Tax attributable to the portion of such Straddle Period ending on and including the Closing Date shall be deemed to be the amount of such Property Tax for the entire Straddle Period, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the portion of such Straddle Period ending on and including the Closing Date, and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire Straddle Period.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) exemptions, allowances or deductions that are calculated on an annual basis, such as the deduction for depreciation, and Taxes calculated on a periodic basis (such as real property Taxes and other ad valorem Taxes) shall be apportioned rateably between such periods on a daily basis; and (ii) any franchise Tax paid or payable with respect to FB or any Subsidiary shall be allocated to the Tax period during which the gross receipts, income, operations, assets, margin or capital comprising the base of such Tax is measured, regardless of whether the right to do business for another period is obtained by the payment of such franchise Tax, and if the Tax period to which such franchise Tax is so allocated is a Straddle Period, then such franchise Tax allocated to a Straddle Period shall be determined in the manner set forth in Section 5.04(e)(i).

5.05 Public Announcements. From the date of this Agreement, neither the Purchasers, nor the Sellers shall, without the written approval (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of the Sellers’ Representative or the Purchasers, as applicable, directly or indirectly, issue any press release or other public announcement concerning the Transactions or the terms of this Agreement, except as and to the extent necessary by a party hereto to consummate the Transactions or that any such party shall be so obligated by applicable Law or stock exchange regulation, in which case such party shall allow the other parties hereto reasonable time to comment on such release or announcement and the parties hereto shall use their reasonable efforts to cause a mutually agreeable release or announcement to be issued; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not preclude communications or disclosures necessary to implement the provisions of this Agreement or to comply with applicable Law or stock exchange regulation.

The Parties agree and acknowledge that the agreement of the Sellers pursuant to the Non-Competition, Non-Solicitation and Confidentiality Agreement is a condition of, and is integral to, the closing of the purchase and sale hereunder and that such agreements are granted and necessary to maintain or preserve the fair market value of the assets and shares acquired by the Purchasers hereunder. If required to ensure that subsection 56.4(2) of the ITA is not applicable to the Non-Competition, Non-Solicitation and Confidentiality Agreement, and to the extent permitted by law, the Purchasers agree to jointly elect (the “Election”) with the Sellers in the prescribed form referred to under subsections 56.4(3) and 56.4(7) of the ITA to have the provisions of subsection 56.4(3) and subsection 56.4(5) of the ITA, as applicable, to apply with respect to the amount received or receivable in respect of the Non-Competition, Non-Solicitation and Confidentiality Agreement; provided, however, that the Sellers shall be solely responsible for the preparation and filing of such Election in a timely manner and the Purchasers shall bear no responsibility in respect of the same and further provided that the Purchasers shall have no liability to the Sellers for Tax or any other amount in respect of such Election or the failure to make such Election.

(i) use and disclose the Transferred Information under its control only for those purposes for which the Transferred Information was initially collected, permitted to be used or disclosed, unless

A. the Disclosing Party or Recipient have first notified the individual about whom the Transferred Information related of any additional purpose, and where required by applicable Laws, obtained the consent of such individual to such additional purpose, or

B. such use or disclosure is permitted or authorized by applicable Laws, without notice to, or consent from, such individual;

(ii) protect the Transferred Information under its control by making reasonable security arrangements against such risks as unauthorized access, collection, use, disclosure, copying, modification, disposal or destruction; provided, however, that such arrangements include, at a minimum, safeguards that are appropriate to the sensitivity of such Transferred Information; and

(a) Notice of Claim. Promptly after the receipt by an Indemnified Party, of a notice of any claim, action, suit or Proceeding by any third party (a “Third Party Claim”) or upon becoming aware of any other facts, circumstances or events, in either case that would reasonably give rise to a right to indemnification pursuant to this Article VIII, such Indemnified Party shall give written notice of such claim to the indemnifying party hereunder (the “Indemnifying Party”), stating the nature and basis of such Third Party Claim and the amount thereof, to the extent known, along with copies of the relevant documents evidencing such Third Party Claim and the basis for indemnification sought. Failure of the Indemnified Party to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from liability on account of such indemnification, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure. Thereafter, the Indemnified Party shall promptly deliver to the Indemnifying Party copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnified Party relating to the Third Party Claim or such other claim.

(b) Assumption of Defense of Third Party Claims. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume control of the defense of the Indemnified Party against any Third Party Claim with counsel of its choice reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and control the defense of such Third Party Claim if it elects to do so within twenty (20) Business Days following receipt of the notice with respect thereto; provided, however, the Indemnifying Party may not assume control of the defense of a Third Party Claim (or shall be required to relinquish control of a Third Party Claim) if (i) the Third Party Claim of which it seeks to assume control (or has assumed control), if determined adversely to the Indemnified Party, could, in the reasonable judgment of the Indemnified Party, be materially detrimental or materially injure the reputation, or business relations with customers and suppliers, of the Purchasers, the Companies, the Subsidiaries or the Business, (ii) the Indemnifying Party fails to provide a reasonable assurance to the Indemnified Party of its financial capacity to defend such Third Party Claim, or (iii) the Third Party Claim arises out of or relates to Tax matters; provided, further, that the Indemnifying Party shall have acknowledged in writing to the Indemnified Party its unqualified obligation to fully indemnify the Indemnified Party pursuant to this Article VIII. The Indemnifying Party shall not, in the defense of such Third Party Claim, consent to the entry of any judgment (other than a judgment of dismissal on the merits without costs) or enter into any settlement without the written consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, unless (1) there is no finding or admission of any violation of any applicable Law, (2) the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the Indemnifying Party as indemnified Losses and (3) the settlement shall include the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to the Indemnified Party of a full release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of the claim, but the Indemnified Party shall bear the fees and expenses of any counsel retained by it to participate in its defense unless either of the following apply: (A) the employment of such counsel has been authorized in writing by the Indemnifying Party or (B) the Indemnifying Party’s legal counsel has advised the Indemnifying Party in writing, with a copy to the

63

Indemnified Party, that there is a conflict of interest that could make it inappropriate under applicable standards of professional conduct to have common counsel. If either clause (A) or (B) in the immediately preceding sentence is applicable, then the Indemnified Party may employ separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party to represent the Indemnified Party, but in no event shall the Indemnifying Party be obligated to pay the reasonable costs and expenses of more than one such separate counsel for any one Third Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to assume control of the defense of an action contemplated by this Article VIII within the manner contemplated above, (I) the Indemnified Party may defend against the action in any manner it reasonably may deem appropriate; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party shall reasonably consult with the Indemnifying Party in connection therewith; (II) the Indemnifying Party will reimburse the Indemnified Party for the reasonable costs of defending against the action (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses); and (III) the Indemnifying Party will remain responsible for any costs the Indemnified Party may incur resulting from the action to the extent such costs are Losses for which the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification hereunder.

8.06 Direct Claims. If an Indemnified Party desires to seek indemnification for a non-Third Party Claim under this Article VIII, the Indemnified Party shall give reasonably prompt written notice to the Indemnifying Party specifying in reasonable detail the facts constituting the basis for such claim and the amount, to the extent known, of the claim asserted; provided, however, until the end of the applicable survival period specified in Section 8.01, no delay on the part of an Indemnified Party in giving a notice of claim will relieve the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Article VIII unless (and then only to the extent) that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced thereby. In the event that, within the twenty (20) Business Day period after such notice is received by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party does not contest such claim in writing to the Indemnified Party as provided in this Section 8.06, the Indemnifying Party will be conclusively deemed to have consented to the recovery by the Indemnified Party of the full amount of Loss specified in the notice in accordance with this Article VIII. If the Indemnifying Party disputes such claim for indemnification, it shall notify the Indemnified Party within twenty (20) Business Days after its receipt of the notice of such claim for indemnification, whereupon the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall meet and attempt in good faith to resolve their differences with respect to such claim for indemnification. If the dispute has not been resolved within twenty (20) Business Days after such parties first met to attempt a resolution, either the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party may initiate a Proceeding in accordance with Article IX of this Agreement. In the event that the Indemnifying Party disputes a claim by an Indemnified Party, then such disputed claim will be resolved by either (i) a written settlement agreement executed by the Indemnified Party, on the one hand, and Indemnifying Party, on the other hand, or (ii) in the absence of such a written settlement agreement, by such Proceeding.

8.07 Escrow. All indemnifiable Losses under this Agreement will be paid in cash in immediately available funds upon: (i) agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the amount thereof, (ii) a final, binding and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction concerning same, or (iii) as otherwise provided in this Article VIII; provided, however, that, except in the case of fraud or with respect to breaches of the Fundamental Representations or the

64

representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.17 (Taxes), with respect to any Losses which any Purchaser Indemnified Party shall be entitled to recover pursuant to Section 8.02(a)(i) and in accordance with this Article VIII, such Losses shall be recovered solely from funds in the Escrow Account in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Escrow Agreement. Each party hereto shall provide the Escrow Agent with all necessary written authorization under the terms of the Escrow Agreement to release funds from the Escrow Account to the applicable Indemnified Party entitled to such funds in accordance with this Article VIII. On the date that is eighteen (18) months from the Closing Date, each party hereto shall promptly, in accordance with and subject to the terms of the Escrow Agreement, instruct the Escrow Agent to release and distribute to the Sellers’ Representative (on behalf of the Sellers) the Escrow Amount, minus the aggregate amount, as of such date, of any amounts distributed to any Purchaser Indemnified Parties pursuant to this Article VIII.

8.08 Adjustments to Purchase Price. The Purchasers and the Seller Parties agree to treat each indemnification payment pursuant to this Article VIII as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for the Canadian Share Purchase and the US Share Purchase on a pro rata basis for all Tax purposes.

8.09 Sole and Exclusive Remedy. Except (i) as provided in Section 7.02(b), (ii) as otherwise provided below, and (ii) any post-Closing payments owed or made pursuant to Article II, the indemnification provided for in this Article VIII, subject to the limitations set forth herein or therein, shall be the exclusive post-Closing remedy available to any Indemnified Party in connection with any Losses arising out of the matters set forth in this Agreement or the Transactions; provided, however, that, other than as set forth in Section 7.02(b), nothing herein will limit in any way any such Indemnified Party’s (A) remedies in respect of fraud, or (B) rights hereunder to specific performance or injunctive or other equitable relief to enforce its rights under this Agreement.

ARTICLE IX

9.02 Appointment of the Sellers’ Representative.

(a) The Seller Parties have appointed, as of the date hereof, Jonathan Doell as the representative of the Seller Parties as described in this Section 9.02 and elsewhere in this Agreement. The Sellers’ Representative is designated as the exclusive authorized representative, attorney-in-fact and agent for and on behalf of the Seller Parties and their successors and assigns with respect to the post-Closing

66

adjustments contemplated by Article II, claims for indemnification under Article VIII and the taking by the Sellers’ Representative of any and all actions and the making of any decisions required or permitted to be taken by the Sellers’ Representative under this Agreement, including the exercise of the power to: (i) deliver certain certificates or agreements to the Purchasers or such other persons as the Sellers’ Representative deems necessary to consummate the Closing, including, without limitation, delivering the closing certificates set forth in Sections 2.06(a)(ix) and 6.03(c); (ii) agree to, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, and comply with orders of courts with respect to, any indemnification claims under this Agreement; (iii) litigate, arbitrate, resolve, settle or compromise any claim for indemnification made pursuant to Article VIII; (iv) withhold from any amounts otherwise payable to the Sellers hereunder, or pursue and seek payment from the Seller Parties of, any Losses arising out of or resulting from a breach of any representation or warranty that specifically relates to the Seller Parties’ ownership of the Intangible Assets or the Shares; (v) seek and pursue any claims against third parties that the Sellers may have in respect of any Losses recovered by a Purchaser Indemnified Party hereunder and (vi) take all actions necessary in the judgment of the Sellers’ Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing. The Sellers’ Representative shall have authority and power to act on behalf of the Sellers with respect to the disposition, settlement or other handling of the adjustments contemplated by Article II and all claims under Article VIII and all rights or obligations arising under Article II or otherwise as contemplated by this Agreement. The Seller Parties have agreed to be bound by all actions taken and documents executed by the Sellers’ Representative in connection with Article II and Article VIII, and the Purchasers shall be entitled to rely on any such action or decision of the Sellers’ Representative. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Seller Parties have agreed and acknowledged that the Purchasers shall be entitled to rely on any instruction or direction provided by the Sellers’ Representative pursuant to the terms of this Agreement regarding the payment of any amount owed to the Seller Parties hereunder. In performing the functions specified in this Agreement, the Sellers’ Representative may act upon any instrument or other writing believed by the Sellers’ Representative in good faith to be genuine and to be signed or presented by the proper Person and shall not be liable to the Seller Parties in connection with the performance of his duties pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement. The Sellers’ Representative shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Seller Parties from and against any Loss incurred on the part of the Sellers’ Representative and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of his duties hereunder. The Seller Parties have agreed to release, waive and not to sue the Sellers’ Representative or any of his Affiliates, employees, agents or Representatives for any and all Losses, including, without limitation, statutory or common law rights of contribution or cost recovery, judgments or expenses which may now exist or which may hereafter arise in connection with the Companies or the Subsidiaries or any matter addressed by this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated by this Agreement. Any out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Sellers’ Representative in connection with actions taken by the Sellers’ Representative pursuant to this Section 9.02 or otherwise in

67

connection with this Agreement, including the hiring of legal counsel and the incurring of legal fees and costs, shall be the responsibility of the Seller Parties. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Sellers’ Representative shall have full power and authority to interpret all the terms and provisions of this Agreement, and to consent to any amendment hereof or thereof, on behalf of the Seller Parties and their successors and assigns.

(b) The Seller Parties have appointed and authorized the Sellers’ Representative exclusive authorized representative, agent and attorney-in-fact of the Seller Parties, with full power to act according to the terms of this Agreement, and in general to do all things and to perform all acts including executing and delivering any agreements, certificates, receipts, instructions, notices or instruments contemplated by or deemed advisable in connection with this Agreement. This power of attorney shall be deemed coupled with an interest and all authority hereby conferred is granted and shall be irrevocable and shall not be terminated or affected by subsequent disability or incapacity of any Seller Party or by any act of any Seller Party or by operation of law, whether such Person’s death or dissolution (unless Sellers’ Representative has actual knowledge of such Person’s death of dissolution), disability, protective supervision or any other event. The Seller Parties hereby waive any and all defenses that may be available to contest, negate or disaffirm the action of the Sellers’ Representative taken in good faith under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the authority granted in this Section 9.02, no agreement, instrument, acknowledgement or other act or document shall be ineffective solely by reason of the Sellers (instead of the Sellers’ Representative) having signed or given the same directly. The Sellers’ Representative shall not be liable to any other Seller Party for any actions taken by him pursuant to this power of attorney except in the case of his willful misconduct.

(c) The provisions of this Section 9.02 shall in no way impose any obligations on the Purchasers. In particular, notwithstanding any notice received by the Purchasers to the contrary, the Purchasers shall be fully protected in relying upon and shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall have no liability to the Seller Parties or the Sellers’ Representative with respect to actions, decisions or determinations of the Sellers’ Representative. The Purchasers shall be entitled to assume that all actions, decisions and determinations of the Sellers’ Representative are fully authorized.

9.03 Further Assurances. The parties hereto agree to use their respective reasonable efforts (a) to furnish upon request to each other such information, (b) to execute and deliver to each other such other documents, and (c) to do such acts and things, all as the other parties hereto may reasonably request for the purpose of carrying out the intent of this Agreement and the documents referred to in this Agreement, and effecting the consummation of the Transactions.

68

9.04 Seller Disclosure Schedules. For the purposes of the Seller Disclosure Schedules, any information, item or other disclosure set forth in any part of the Seller Disclosure Schedules shall be deemed to have been set forth in all other applicable parts of the Seller Disclosure Schedules, as applicable, and disclosed not only in connection with the representation and warranty specifically referenced on a given part of the Seller Disclosure Schedules, as applicable, but for all purposes relating to the representations and warranties set forth in Article III of this Agreement, and shall be deemed to be disclosed and incorporated by reference in any such other part of the Seller Disclosure Schedules, as applicable, as though fully set forth in such part of the Seller Disclosure Schedules, as applicable, for which applicability of such information and disclosure is reasonably apparent on its face, and for the avoidance of doubt, without reading the contents of the documents referred to in order to determine such relevance.

9.05 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or incapable of being enforced by any rule of Law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect and shall be interpreted so as reasonably to effect the intent of the parties hereto. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal, void or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith and use all reasonable efforts to replace such term or other provision with a valid and enforceable provision so as to achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such unenforceable term or other provision.

9.06 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the documents and instruments referred to in this Agreement) constitutes the entire agreement of the parties hereto and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and is not intended to confer upon any other Person any rights or remedies hereunder; provided, however, the Purchaser Indemnified Parties and the Seller Indemnified Parties are intended third-party beneficiaries of Article VIII.

9.07 Assignment. This Agreement shall not be assigned by operation of Law or otherwise without the prior written consent of the Sellers’ Representative and the Purchasers, except that the Purchasers may collaterally assign their obligations under this Agreement to the benefit of the lender or lenders providing the financing for the Transactions (or any direct or indirect refinancing thereof); provided, however, that no such assignment shall relieve the Purchasers of their respective obligations under this Agreement.

9.08 Parties in Interest. Except as provided in Section 9.06 and Section 9.07, this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure solely to the benefit of, and be enforceable solely by each party hereto, and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.

9.09 Governing Law; Venue. This Agreement and any claim, controversy or dispute arising under or related to this Agreement or the relationship of the parties hereto shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules or provisions (whether of such state or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware. The parties hereto hereby irrevocably (i) submit to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue

69

of the courts of the State of Delaware located in the County of New Castle (or, in the case of any claim as to which the federal courts have exclusive subject matter jurisdiction, the Federal court of the United States of America sitting in the State of Delaware), in any action arising out of or relating to this Agreement and any documents contemplated hereby, (ii) agree that all claims in respect of such action may be heard and determined in such courts, (iii) agree not to object to venue in such courts or to claim that such forum is inconvenient or improper, and (iii) agree that notice or the service of process in any Proceeding shall be properly served or delivered if delivered in the manner contemplated by Section 9.01 hereof.

9.10 Enforcement. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties hereto shall be entitled to preliminary and permanent injunctive relief and decrees of specific performance to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. Except as otherwise set forth herein, all rights and remedies existing under this Agreement are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available under applicable Law.

9.11 Amendments. No amendment of any provision of this Agreement shall be valid unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Purchasers and the Sellers’ Representative.

9.12 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts and by exchange of original, facsimile or portable document format (.pdf) signature pages, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts of such signature pages have been signed by each of the parties hereto and delivered to the other parties hereto, it being understood that each party need not sign the same counterpart signature page.
