4

(c)Payment of the Deferred Cash Payment and Interest Payments shall be secured by a proportional part of the Purchased Assets under the terms of a security agreement in substantially for the form attached as Exhibit A to this Agreement (the “Security Agreement”), provided that the Security Agreement will be subordinated to any existing or future commercial lenders to Buyer, including in connection with the Financing.

The fees of the Escrow Agent shall be paid one-half (1/2) by Seller and one-half (1/2) by Buyer.

Section 3.4Pre-Closing Statement; Post-Closing Purchase Price Adjustment.

(a)At least five (5) days prior to the Closing Date, Seller will deliver to Buyer a statement (the “Pre-Closing Statement”), prepared in accordance with the Accounting Principles, setting forth (i) an estimated balance sheet of Seller as of the Measurement Time, (ii) Seller’s good faith estimate of the Purchase Price, including the amount of Marijuana Inventory and Net Working Capital (the “Closing Purchase Price”), (iii) Seller’s good faith estimate of the resulting Closing Cash Consideration, Closing Cash Payment, Deferred Cash Payment, Interest Payments, Stock Consideration, Closing Stock Payment and Indemnity Escrow Shares and (iv) the amounts of Financial Debt and Transaction Expenses to be paid at the Closing. Buyer may submit any objections in writing to Seller until 5:00 p.m. Mountain Time on the Business Day prior to the anticipated Closing Date and Seller will cooperate in good faith with Buyer to revise the Closing Purchase Price to reflect the mutual agreement of Seller and Buyer. If Buyer does not submit any objections within such period or the parties are unable to mutually agree to such revisions, then the Pre-Closing Statement initially provided by Seller shall be deemed final (subject to later adjustment pursuant to the remaining terms of this Section 3.4). Seller will make its financial records reasonably available to Buyer and its accountants and other representatives at reasonable times at any time during the review by Buyer of the calculation of the Closing Purchase Price.

(b)As soon as practicable, but no later than sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, Buyer will prepare and deliver to Seller a statement (the “Closing Statement”), prepared in accordance with the Accounting Principles, setting forth, in reasonable detail, Buyer’s calculation of the Purchase Price, including the amount of Marijuana Inventory and Net Working Capital, the resulting Closing Cash Consideration, Closing Cash Payment, Deferred Cash Payment, Interest Payments, Closing Stock Payment and Indemnity Escrow Shares, and the amounts of Financial Debt (as of the Measurement Time) and Transaction Expenses (as of the Measurement Time).

(c)Seller will be entitled to review the Closing Statement, together with supporting books and records of Buyer with respect to the Business to be provided upon Seller’s reasonable request; provided that (i) such review must be conducted at reasonable times during normal business hours, under the reasonable supervision of Buyer’s agents and in a manner so as not to unreasonably interfere with the normal business operations of Buyer, (ii) Seller will treat all such information as confidential and hereby waives any right to use such information for any purpose other than in connection with the determination of the final Purchase Price, and (iii) the costs and expense of such review, including the fees of any third-party advisors, will be borne by Seller. During a period of thirty (30) days after the date Buyer delivers the Closing Statement to Seller (the “Objection Period”), if Seller disagrees with the Closing Statement, then Seller will give written notice (an “Objection Notice”) to Buyer within such thirty (30)-day period specifying in reasonable detail Seller’s disagreement with Buyer’s determination of the Purchase Price as set forth in the Closing Statement. Any Objection Notice must specify those items or amounts as to which Seller disagrees, and Seller will be deemed to have agreed with all other items and amounts contained in the Closing Statement. If Seller does not deliver an Objection Notice within the Objection Period, then Seller will be deemed to have agreed entirely with the determination of the Purchase Price as set forth in the Closing Statement.

5

(d)If an Objection Notice is duly delivered in accordance with Section 3.4(c), Buyer and Seller will, during the fifteen (15) days following delivery of the Objection Notice, use reasonable efforts to reach agreement on the disputed items or amounts set forth in the Objection Notice (the “Disputed Purchase Price Components”) in order to determine the Purchase Price, which amount must be within the range of the amount thereof shown in the Closing Statement and the amount thereof shown in the Objection Notice. If, during such fifteen (15)-day period, Buyer and Seller are unable to reach agreement on the Disputed Purchase Price Components, they will promptly thereafter cause independent members of the dispute resolution group of Endispute, Inc. d/b/a JAMS Denver Mediation, Arbitration and ADR Services, or if Endispute, Inc. is unavailable, an independent accounting firm of recognized national or regional standing to be mutually agreed upon by Buyer and Seller, acting reasonably and in good faith, or if Buyer and Seller are unable to agree as to such independent accounting firm within ten (10) days after the conclusion of such fifteen (15)-day period, either Buyer or Seller may request that the CPR International Institute for Conflict Prevention and Resolution appoint a certified public accountant who at the time is, or for at least five (5) years formerly was, a partner (or in a position of equivalent stature) in an independent accounting firm of recognized national or regional standing, (in either case, the “Independent Accountant”) to review this Agreement and the Disputed Purchase Price Components for the purpose of calculating the Purchase Price. The Independent Accountant will determine procedures for the resolution of the dispute, subject to the terms hereof. The Independent Accountant’s sole function will be to act as an accounting expert, and not as an arbitrator. The Independent Accountant’s determination of any Disputed Purchase Price Components and its calculation of the Purchase Price must be within the range of the amount thereof shown in the Closing Statement and the amount thereof shown in the Objection Notice. The Independent Accountant will deliver to Buyer and Seller, as promptly as practicable, but in any event within twenty (20) days after its appointment, a report setting forth, in reasonable detail, its determination of the Purchase Price. Such report will be final and binding upon the parties absent manifest error. The cost of the Independent Accountant’s review and report will be borne by Buyer, on the one hand, and Seller, on the other hand, in the same proportion that the dollar amount of the Disputed Purchase Price Components that are not resolved in favor of Buyer, on the one hand, and Seller, on the other hand, bears to the total dollar amount of the Disputed Purchase Price Components resolved by the Independent Accountant. Each party will bear all of its other expenses incurred in connection with matters contemplated by this Section 3.4.

(e)Within five (5) Business Days after the end of the Objection Period, if Seller has not delivered an Objection Notice during the Objection Period, or within five (5) Business Days of the resolution of all disputes pursuant to Section 3.4(c), Buyer or Seller, as applicable, will make the following payments:

(i)If the Purchase Price as finally determined under this Section 3.4 is greater than the Closing Purchase Price, at Seller’s option, Buyer will (A) pay to pay to Seller (or if directed by Seller in accordance with Section 3.11, to the Members in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Percentages) the amount by which the Purchase Price as finally determined under this Section 3.4 exceeds the Closing Purchase Price by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Seller’s Bank Accounts or Member Bank Accounts, as applicable, or (B) cause Parent to issue to Seller (or, if directed by Seller in accordance with Section 3.11, to the Members in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Percentages) a number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to such excess divided by the Per Parent Share Price.

6

(ii)If the Purchase Price as finally determined under this Section 3.4 is less than the Closing Purchase Price, Buyer may, at Buyer’s option, (A) recover from the Escrow Account pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement the amount by which the Closing Purchase Price exceeds the Purchase Price as finally determined under this Section 3.4 by reducing the number of Indemnity Escrow Shares by an amount equal to such excess divided by the Per Parent Share Price, or (B) direct payment thereof in cash by Seller (or the Members, in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Percentages), which payment will be made by Seller (or the Members) within five (5) Business Days of such demand, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account or accounts designated in writing by Buyer at least three (3) Business Days prior to such payment date. In the event such amount is to be recovered from the Escrow Account, such Indemnity Escrow Shares will be valued at the Per Parent Share Price.

Section 3.5Covenants Regarding Stock Consideration.

(a)Legend. Seller acknowledges and agrees that the certificates representing the Stock Consideration may contain a legend in form acceptable to Parent, including the following legend:

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OR OTHER JURISDICTION, AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT (1) PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR (2) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, IN EACH CASE IN ACCORDANCE WITH ALL APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND THE SECURITIES LAWS OF OTHER JURISDICTIONS, AND IN THE CASE OF A TRANSACTION EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION, UNLESS THE COMPANY HAS RECEIVED AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO IT THAT SUCH TRANSACTION DOES NOT REQUIRE REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND SUCH OTHER APPLICABLE LAWS.

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER PURSUANT TO SECTION 8.10 OF THAT CERTAIN ASSET PURCHASE AGREEMENT ENTERED INTO BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND THE STOCKHOLDER LISTED ON THE FACE HEREOF, A COPY OF SUCH AGREEMENT IS ON FILE AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE COMPANY AND SUCH RESTRICTION ON TRANSFER WILL BE PROVIDED TO THE HOLDER HEREOF UPON REQUEST. NO TRANSFER OF SUCH SECURITIES WILL BE MADE ON THE BOOKS OF THE COMPANY UNLESS ACCOMPANIED BY EVIDENCE OF COMPLIANCE WITH THE TERMS OF SUCH RESTRICTION ON TRANSFER.

(b)Rule 144. Subject to Section 8.9 and any other transfer restrictions agreed to by Seller or any Member, if the securities issued as Stock Consideration are eligible for resale under Rule 144 of the Securities Act, Parent shall cause the legend set forth above to be removed within three (3) trading days of completion of the 144 Opinion and the delivery by Seller or a Member, as applicable, of an executed shareholders representation letter in form reasonably satisfactory to the applicable counsel providing the 144 Opinion setting forth the satisfaction of the conditions in Rule 144(b)(1) or (2) of the Securities Act, as applicable, and Parent shall deliver a customary opinion of counsel of recognized standing in form and substance satisfactory to the transfer agent to the effect that such sale is being made in compliance with Rule 144 of the Securities Act (the “144 Opinion”). Parent shall, at all times, until all of the Stock Consideration has been sold or is no longer subject to resale restrictions under the Securities Act, file all reports required to be filed under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act.

7

Section 3.6Allocation of Purchase Price. Following the Closing Date, Buyer shall provide to Seller an allocation of the applicable portions of the Purchase Price in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (and any similar provisions of state, local, or non-U.S. Law, as appropriate) and in accordance with Schedule C. Seller shall provide Buyer with any comments to such allocation within fifteen (15) days after the date of receipt by Seller, and Seller and Buyer shall negotiate in good faith to finalize such allocation no later than sixty (60) days prior to the earliest due date (taking into account, for these purposes, any applicable extension of a due date) for the filing of a Tax Return to which such allocation is relevant. If Seller does not provide any comments within such fifteen (15) day period, then the allocation initially provided by Buyer shall be deemed final. If Seller timely provides such comments but Seller and Buyer are unable to mutually agree to an allocation within fifteen (15) days after Seller’s delivery of such comments, then such dispute shall be resolved in a manner substantially similar to Section 3.4(d) no later than sixty (60) days prior to the earliest due date (taking into account, for these purposes, any applicable extension of a due date) for the filing of a Tax Return to which such allocation is relevant. The Purchase Price shall be allocated as set forth in such mutually agreed or finalized allocation (the “Allocation Schedule”). Seller and Buyer shall file IRS Form 8594 and all Tax Returns and other Tax filings in accordance with the Allocation Schedule, and neither Seller nor Buyer shall take any position in any Tax Return, Tax filing, Tax proceeding or audit, or financial statement or report that is inconsistent with the Allocation Schedule.

Section 3.7Withholding. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Buyer and its agents shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration payable or otherwise deliverable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as may be required to be deducted or withheld by it therefrom under any applicable Laws, and to reasonably request and be provided any necessary forms, including IRS Form W-9 or the appropriate version of Form W-8, as applicable, or any similar information. To the extent any such amounts are so deducted or withheld, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as having been paid to the Person to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer and its agents shall not deduct and withhold any federal Taxes from any consideration payable or otherwise deliverable to any Person which delivers a completed and signed IRS Form W-9 to the Buyer (certifying that such Person is not subject to backup withholding).

Seller agrees that, at the request of Buyer, any of the Purchased Assets that can be transmitted to Buyer electronically will be so delivered to Buyer promptly following the Closing in a secure format and manner mutually agreeable to Buyer and Seller and will not be delivered to Buyer on any tangible medium. After Closing, Seller will not directly or indirectly use any copies of such Purchased Assets under its custody or control except for (a) the purpose of verifying delivery of or re-delivering such Purchased Assets to Buyer or (b) complying with an express provision of this Agreement or the Ancillary Documents. Upon the written request of Buyer following the Closing, Seller will return or destroy any such copies of the Purchased Assets using commercially reasonable means but, in any event, will not thereafter directly or indirectly permit or perform any recovery or restoration thereof, whether through forensics, archives, undeletion, or otherwise.

Section 3.9Employee and Independent Contractor Matters.

(a)Seller agrees to use its reasonable efforts to assist Buyer in its efforts to employ any employees of Seller and engage any independent contractors of Seller. Buyer agrees to hire substantially all the employees of Seller. Any employees of Seller who accept employment with Buyer, execute any documents required by Buyer to be executed in connection therewith and begin employment with Buyer are referred to herein collectively as the “Hired Employees.”

(b)Buyer will have no obligation to offer employment to, and will have no Liability to, any employee of Seller, including any employee who, on the Closing Date, is not actively employed by Seller or is on job protected leave, military service leave or layoff (whether or not with recall rights), or whose employment has been terminated (voluntarily or involuntarily) or who has retired prior to the Closing Date other than those employees on statutorily-mandated leave or military service leave set forth on Schedule 3.9(b). Seller will bear all responsibility for, and related costs associated with the termination of its employees, including complying with the federal Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act (“WARN”) and similar Laws. Seller will not provide any notice to employees pursuant to WARN or similar Laws without prior approval by Buyer, which Buyer shall not unreasonably delay or withhold from Seller.

(c)Prior to the Closing, Seller will terminate, effective no later than as of the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Closing Date, all employees and independent contractors of Seller who have not been made any offer of employment or engagement with Buyer or declined employment or engagement with Buyer. Simultaneously with such termination, Seller will pay each such terminated employee and each such terminated independent contractors all accrued wages, salaries, and fees, accrued vacation, accrued sick and personal time, if any are owed and due under Law, and all other amounts due from Seller to such employees and independent contractors, and termination or severance pay in accordance with any contract or Law.

(d)Nothing contained in this Agreement, any Ancillary Document or any other document contemplated hereby or thereby will confer upon any Hired Employee or any other present or former employee of Seller any rights or remedies of any nature or kind whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement, any Ancillary Document or any other document contemplated hereby or thereby, including any right to employment or continued employment or to any compensation or benefits that may be provided, directly or indirectly, under any employee benefit plan, policy or arrangement of Buyer, nor will anything contained in this Agreement, any Ancillary Document or any other document contemplated hereby or thereby constitute a limitation on or restriction against the right of Buyer to amend, modify or terminate any such plan, policy or arrangement or compensation, benefits or other terms or conditions of employment.

(e)Seller and Buyer agree that Seller will be liable for all Liabilities of Seller with respect to the employees and independent contractors of Seller (including all Hired Employees) arising or accruing prior to the Closing Date and including any employment Taxes imposed with respect to any payments of compensation to employees and independent contractors arising in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, regardless of whether arising on or before the Closing, and Buyer will be and become liable for all employment-related Liabilities of the Hired Employees and all Liabilities with respect to independent contractors, in each case, first arising after the Closing Date.

Section 3.10Inability to Assign Assigned Contracts.  

(a)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or in any Ancillary Document, to the extent that the assignment or attempted assignment to Buyer of any Assigned Contract or Permit, or any claim, right or benefit arising thereunder or resulting therefrom, is prohibited by any Law, or would require any consent, waiver, authorization, notice or novation by any Person, and such consent, waiver, authorization, notice or novation has not been obtained or made prior to the Closing in a form and substance reasonably acceptable to Buyer, or with respect to which any attempted assignment would be ineffective or would materially and adversely affect the rights of Seller or Buyer thereunder, then neither this Agreement nor any Ancillary Document will constitute an assignment or attempted assignment thereof, and the same will not be assigned at the Closing.

(b)Both prior and subsequent to the Closing, Seller will use reasonable efforts and cooperate with Buyer to obtain promptly all consents, waivers, authorizations or novations and to timely give all notices required with respect to the Assigned Contracts and Permits, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Buyer. Except as set forth in Section 12.11, Seller will bear and pay the cost of all filing, recordation and similar fees and Taxes payable to any Governmental Authority in connection with the assignment of the Assigned Contracts and Permits and any additional fees or charges (howsoever denominated) required by any Person in connection with the assignment of any of the Assigned Contracts or Permits or any related consent, waiver, authorization, novation or notice.

(c)If any consent, waiver, authorization, novation or notice that is required for the effective assignment to Buyer of any Assigned Contract or Permit cannot be obtained or made and, as a result, the material benefits of such Assigned Contract or Permit cannot be provided to Buyer following the Closing as otherwise required in accordance with this Agreement, then Seller will use reasonable efforts to provide Buyer with the economic benefits (taking into account all burdens and benefits, including Tax costs and benefits) and operational benefits of any such Assigned Contract, and to permit Buyer to perform Seller’s obligations and enforce Seller’s rights under such Assigned Contract or Permit as if such Assigned Contract or Permit had been assigned to Buyer (and as if Seller had obtained or made such consent, waiver, authorization, novation, or notice as the case may be), including (i) enforcing, at Buyer’s request, any rights of Seller arising with respect thereto, including the right to terminate such Assigned Contract upon the request of Buyer, and (ii) permitting Buyer to enforce any rights arising with respect thereto. Seller will pay to Buyer, when received, all income, proceeds and other monies received by Seller from third parties to the extent related to Buyer’s intended rights under any Assigned Contract, as contemplated by this Agreement, including this Section 3.10(c). Once any such consent, waiver, authorization or novation is obtained or notice is properly made in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Buyer, Seller will assign such Assigned Contract or Permit to Buyer at no additional cost to Buyer. Any expenses incurred by Seller, and any reasonable expenses incurred by Buyer, in connection with the arrangements contemplated by this Section 3.10(c) will be borne by Seller.

(d)For purposes of this Section 3.10, it shall be reasonable for Buyer not to accept the form and substance of any consent, waiver, authorization, novation or notice if it (i) changes or modifies, in any material respect, any Assigned Contract or Permit; (ii) results in any cost to Buyer; or (iii) makes any representations concerning, or attempts to impose any conditions on, Buyer (other than the obligation to pay or perform the obligations expressly set forth in such Assigned Contract to the extent such obligations constitute Assumed Liabilities).

Section 3.11Payments to Members. As set forth in Section 3.2 and Section 3.3, Seller may, at its option, direct that any payment by Buyer or issuance by Parent (including by release of Indemnity Escrow Shares pursuant to the Escrow Agreement) be made instead to the Members in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Percentages. Any such direction must be made in a written notice by Seller and each Member and delivered to Buyer at least five (5) Business Days prior to the applicable date of payment or issuance. Any such payment by Buyer or issuance by Parent will be deemed for all purposes, including Tax purposes, made to Seller and distributed by Seller to the Members, including for determining whether Seller has been paid in full as contemplated in Section 3.2 and Section 3.3, and is being made or issued to the Members for administrative convenience of Seller and the Members.

10

Section 3.12Paying Agent. Buyer may, at its option, elect to utilize a third-party paying agent for purposes of making any cash payments required under this Agreement, including under Section 3.2 or Section 3.3. If requested by Buyer, Seller agrees to reasonably cooperate with Buyer’s appointment of such paying agent, and Buyer may provide such information regarding Seller or the Members as is reasonably requested by the paying agent to make such payments. The fees and expenses of such paying agent will be paid by Buyer.

Section 5.3Taxes. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, Buyer shall pay when due any sales, transfer, excise, or other similar Taxes which may be imposed in any jurisdiction in connection with or arising from the sale and transfer of any of the Purchased Assets to Buyer (such Taxes, “Transfer Taxes”) in an aggregate amount up to $15,400, and Buyer and Seller shall each pay when due one-half of the aggregate amount of Transfer Taxes in excess of $15,400. Buyer and Seller agree to cooperate with and assist each other in any efforts to minimize, or secure any available exemptions from, any such Transfer Taxes. Seller or the Members, as applicable, shall pay its or their own income Tax assessed as a result of this Agreement. Except as set forth in this Section 5.3, Seller will be responsible for all Taxes, assessments and costs associated with the Business for Pre-Closing Tax Periods. The Transaction Expenses shall be allocated to and deducted by Seller for all Tax purposes to the extent allowed under applicable Law. To the extent allowed under applicable Law, the rights of Seller to the Deferred Cash Payment and the Indemnity Escrow Shares shall be treated as deferred contingent purchase price eligible for installment sale treatment under Section 453 of the Code and any corresponding provision of state, local or non-U.S. applicable Law, as appropriate.

Section 5.4Property Taxes. All Property Taxes which have become due and payable upon any of the Purchased Assets on or before the Closing Date shall be paid by Seller on or before the Closing, together with any penalty or interest thereon, to the relevant Governmental Authority.

In performing such apportionment, all Property Taxes shall be prorated on the assumption that an equal amount of Property Tax applies to each day of the relevant taxable period regardless of how installment payments are billed or made. If the actual amount of any such item is not known as of the Closing Date, such proration will be based on the previous year’s assessment of such item and the parties hereto will adjust such proration and pay any underpayment or reimburse for any overpayment within thirty (30) days after the actual amount becomes known. Seller shall be liable for all such Property Taxes apportioned to the Pre-Transfer Period and Buyer shall be liable for all such Property Taxes apportioned to the Post-Transfer Period. No later than fifteen (15) days prior to the due date thereof, Seller shall pay to Buyer the amount of any Pre-Transfer Period and other Property Taxes for which Seller is liable under this Section 5.4 and which remain unpaid as of the Closing Date. Within five (5) days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall reimburse Seller for all Property Taxes paid by Seller that are apportioned to the Post-Transfer Period. Buyer shall pay all Property Taxes which become due and payable after the Closing Date with respect to a Straddle Period.

Section 5.5Cooperation on Tax Matters. Seller and Buyer shall provide each other with such cooperation and information as either of them reasonably may request of the other in filing any Tax Return, amended Tax Return or claim for refund, determining a liability for Taxes or a right to a refund of Taxes or participating in or conducting any audit or other action in respect of Taxes. Any information obtained under this Section 5.5 shall be kept confidential, except as may be otherwise necessary in connection with the filing of Tax Returns or claims for refund or in conducting an audit or other action in respect of Taxes.

35

Section 8.8Hired Employees.

Neither Seller nor any Member shall transfer all or any portion of the Stock Consideration in a private resale without the transferee agreeing in writing with Parent to be subject to the restrictions set forth in this Section 8.9 (including with respect to any subsequent transferee).

Section 8.10Pre-Closing Cash Dividend. Notwithstanding Section 8.3(d) or the prohibition on granting dividends or distributions in Section 8.3(q), Seller may distribute Excluded Cash to its Members at any time prior to or on the Closing Date.

Section 10.3Indemnification Procedures. The party or parties making a claim under this ARTICLE X is referred to as the “Indemnified Party”, and the party or parties against whom such claims are asserted under this ARTICLE X is referred to as the “Indemnifying Party”.

(a)If any Indemnified Party receives notice of the assertion or commencement of any Proceeding made or brought by any third party (a “Third Party Claim”) where the Indemnifying Party is obligated to provide indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party written notice (a “Third Party Claim Notice”) not later than thirty (30) calendar days after receipt of such notice of such Third Party Claim. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Third Party Claim in reasonable detail (to the extent then known). The failure of any Indemnified Party to provide a Third Party Claim Notice as required by this Section 10.3(a) shall not affect such Indemnified Party’s rights under this ARTICLE X except to the extent such failure is actually and materially prejudicial to the rights and obligations of the Indemnifying Party.

(b)The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in, or by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party, to assume the defense of any Third Party Claim at the Indemnifying Party’s expense and by the Indemnifying Party’s own counsel, provided, however, that the Indemnified Party may participate in any such proceeding with counsel of its choice and at its expense. If the Indemnifying Party is a Member, such Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to defend or direct the defense of any such Third Party Claim that (i) is asserted directly by or on behalf of a Person that is a supplier or customer of Seller, or (ii) seeks an injunction or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Parties. In the event (A) the Indemnifying Party does not elect to defend such proceeding, claim or demand (or fails to confirm its election) within fifteen (15) days after the giving by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party of a Third Party Claim Notice, (B) the Indemnifying Party elects to defend such claim but fails to diligently defend such claim in good faith; provided, that the Indemnified Party shall first notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of any such failure and the Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days’ opportunity to cure such failure, unless such cure period would actually and materially prejudice the rights of the Indemnified Party, (C) the claim involves an allegation by a Governmental Authority or primarily seeks equitable relief against the Indemnified Party or (D) the Indemnified Party reasonably shall have concluded (upon advice of its counsel) that, with respect to such claims, the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party have an actual conflict of interest, or that an actual conflict of interest is reasonably likely to exist, the Indemnified Party may retain counsel, reasonably acceptable to the Indemnifying Party, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, and control the defense of, or otherwise deal with, such proceeding, claim or demand and to settle or compromise such claim or action without the consent of the Indemnifying Party (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

Regardless of which party assumes the defense, Seller, each Member and Buyer and, as applicable, Parent, shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any Third Party Claim, including making available records relating to such Third Party Claim and furnishing, without expense (other than reimbursement of actual out-of-pocket expenses) to the defending party, management employees (during reasonable hours and in an amount which would not reasonably interfere with the business or operations of the non-defending party) of the non-defending party as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of such Third Party Claim.

40

(c)Settlement of Third Party Claims. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into settlement of any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(d)Direct Claims. Any Proceeding by an Indemnified Party on account of a Loss which does not result from a Third Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”) shall be asserted by the Indemnified Party giving the Indemnifying Party written notice no later than thirty (30) days after the Indemnified Party becomes aware of such Direct Claim. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Direct Claim in reasonable detail. The failure of any Indemnified Party to provide a notice of a Direct Claim as required by this Section 10.3(d) shall not affect such Indemnified Party’s rights under this ARTICLE X except to the extent such failure is actually and materially prejudicial to the rights and obligations of the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days after its receipt of such notice to respond in writing to such Direct Claim. Provided the Indemnifying Party proceeds with reasonable diligence, the Indemnified Party shall allow the Indemnifying Party and its professional advisors an opportunity to investigate the matter or circumstance alleged to give rise to the Direct Claim, and whether and to what extent any amount is payable in respect of the Direct Claim and the Indemnified Party shall assist the Indemnifying Party’s investigation by giving such information and assistance as may be may reasonably requested. If the Indemnifying Party does not so respond within such thirty (30)-day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have rejected such claim, in which case the Indemnified Party shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to the Indemnified Party on the terms and subject to the provisions of this Agreement.

(e)Tax Claims. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the control of any claim, assertion, event or proceeding in respect of Taxes of Seller (including, but not limited to, any such claim in respect of a breach of the representations and warranties in Section 6.8 or any breach or violation of or failure to fully perform any covenant, agreement, undertaking or obligation in ARTICLE VIII) and any associated liabilities or costs shall be the sole responsibility of Seller; provided, that to the extent that liability for any such Taxes can be imposed on Buyer as a successor or otherwise, Buyer shall have the opportunity to participate with Seller, at Buyer’s own cost and expense, in such claim, assertion, event or proceeding. If Seller has been treated as a partnership for federal and applicable state and local income Tax purposes, in the event that Seller is unable to fully satisfy any imputed underpayment that would otherwise be imposed on it under Section 6225 of the Code or any similar or analogous provisions of applicable state Law in connection with any audit of Seller, Seller shall promptly and properly, if eligible, make the “push-out” election under Section 6226 of the Code and any similar or analogous election under applicable state Law.

Section 10.4Payments.

(a)Once a Loss is agreed to by the Indemnifying Party or finally adjudicated to be payable, the Indemnifying Party shall satisfy its obligations within five (5) Business Days of such agreement or final, non-appealable adjudication by wire transfer of immediately available funds.

(b)Any Losses payable to a Buyer Indemnitee pursuant to ARTICLE X shall be satisfied (i) first, by reducing the number of Indemnity Escrow Shares in the Escrow Account by a number equal to the amount of such Losses divided by the Per Parent Share Price, and (ii) thereafter, directly from Seller and the Members (subject to the Basket Amount and the Cap with respect to representations and warranties of Seller and the Members other than Seller Fundamental Representations and subject to the Fundamental Cap with respect to the Seller Fundamental Representations) by wire of immediately available funds to the account designated by Buyer.

41

Section 10.5Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments. All indemnification payments made under this Agreement shall be treated by the parties as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by applicable Law.

Section 10.6Effect of Investigation. The representations, warranties and covenants of the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification with respect thereto, shall not be affected or deemed waived by reason of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party (including by any of its representatives) or by reason of the fact that the Indemnified Party or any of its representatives knew or should have known that any such representation or warranty is, was or might be inaccurate or by reason of the Indemnified Party’s waiver of any condition set forth in ARTICLE X, Section 9.2 or Section 9.3, as the case may be.

Section 10.7Exclusive Remedies. The parties acknowledge and agree that their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims (other than claims based upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason of fraud, criminal activity or willful misconduct on the part of a party hereto in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this ARTICLE X. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement it may have against the other parties hereto and their Affiliates and each of their respective representatives arising under or based upon any applicable Law, except pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this ARTICLE X. Nothing in this Section 10.7 shall limit (i) Section 12.8 in any manner or (ii) any Person’s right to seek and obtain any equitable relief to which any Person shall be entitled or to seek any remedy on account of any party’s breach of Section 8.6, any fraudulent, criminal or intentional misconduct or any other rights or remedies available under applicable Law.

Section 10.8Materiality Scrape. For the purposes of determining (a) whether any breach of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement has occurred and (b) the amount of Loss resulting from any such breach, the determination shall, in each case, be made without references to the terms “material,” “materiality,” “Material Adverse Effect,” “material adverse effect” or other similar qualifications as to materiality (other than specific monetary thresholds) contained in any such representation or warranty; provided, that the foregoing clause (a) will not apply with respect to the last sentence of Section 6.4(a).

Section 10.9No Right of Contribution or Subrogation. Neither Seller nor any Member will make any claim for contribution or subrogation against any Buyer Indemnitee with respect to any indemnity claims arising under or in connection with this Agreement to the extent that any Buyer Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification hereunder for such claim, and Seller and the Members hereby waive any such right of contribution and subrogation from or against any Buyer Indemnitee that Seller or any Member, as applicable, has or may have in the future.

Section 10.10Survival. The representations or warranties of the parties contained in this Agreement or in any certificate delivered pursuant to this Agreement will survive the Closing until the date that is eighteen (18) months following the Closing Date; provided, that (a) the Fundamental Representations will survive the Closing until the seventh (7th) anniversary of the Closing Date and (b) claims for common law fraud with respect to the representations and warranties set forth herein will survive ten (10) years and will not be subject to any other limitations contained in this Agreement. Each of the covenants, agreements or obligations of the parties contained in this Agreement to be performed prior to the Closing will survive the consummation of the Closing for a period of twelve (12) months following the Closing Date, and any covenants, agreements and obligations of the parties contained in this Agreement which contemplate performance after the Closing will survive until the later of when performed or required to be performed or five (5) years following the Closing Date; provided, that any such covenants, agreements or obligations set forth in Article X (Indemnification) will survive until the later of when performed or required to be performed or seven (7) years following the Closing Date; provided, further, that any such covenants, agreements or obligations set forth in Article X (Indemnification) with respect to claims for common law fraud with respect to the representations and warranties set forth herein will survive until the later of when performed or required to be performed or ten (10) years following the Closing Date. No claim may be brought under this Agreement unless written notice describing in reasonable detail the facts giving rise to the claim is given on or prior to the last day of the applicable survival period. In the event such notice is given, the right to indemnification with respect thereto shall survive the applicable survival period until such claim is finally resolved and any obligations with respect thereto are fully satisfied.
