Each certificate, instrument, or book entry representing the Restricted Securities transferred as above provided shall be notated with, except if such transfer is made pursuant to SEC Rule 144, the appropriate restrictive legend set forth in Section 7.5(b), except that such certificate instrument, or book entry shall not be notated with such restrictive legend if the legend is removed pursuant to a SEC Rule 144 transfer or if, in the opinion of counsel for such holder and Purchaser, such legend is not required in order to establish compliance with any provisions of the Securities Act.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, nothing contained in this Agreement shall limit the rights of any Indemnitee to seek or obtain (1) injunctive relief, including specific performance, or any other equitable remedy to which such Indemnitee is otherwise entitled, and attorney’s fees and costs, whether prior to or after the Closing, and/or (2) monetary damages in the event of a breach by another Party of this Agreement so as to (directly or indirectly) prevent a complete Closing of the Transactions. The Parties acknowledge that, other than as expressly provided in this Agreement, (i) no current or former member, manager, officer, employee, Affiliate or adviser of Company or Seller has made or is making any representations or warranties whatsoever regarding Company or Seller or the subject matter of this Agreement, express or implied, and (ii) except as expressly provided in Article IV and Article V, the Company and Sellers have not made and are not making, and Purchaser is not relying upon, any representations or warranties whatsoever regarding the Company, the Seller or the subject matter of this Agreement, express or implied.

(f)Tax Benefits. The amount of any claim that any Indemnitee may recover pursuant to this Article VIII shall be reduced by an amount equal to any tax benefit actually realized by way of a reduction in cash taxes payable as a result of such claim by such Indemnitee within or for the tax year in which such claim occurred.

(g)Insurance. The amount of any claim that any Indemnitee may recover pursuant to this Article VIII shall be reduced by an amount equal to any insurance proceeds received by such Indemnitee resulting from any insurance policy relating to such claim after deducting any related costs and expenses of collection, including, without limitation, the aggregate cost of pursuing any related insurance claims and any related increases in insurance premiums or other chargebacks.

Section 8.5Indemnification Procedures. Whenever any claim shall arise for indemnification hereunder, the Indemnitee shall promptly provide written notice of such claim to the indemnifying Party (the “Indemnifying Party”). In connection with any claim giving rise to indemnity hereunder resulting from or arising out of any action by a Person who is not a party to this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party, at its sole cost and expense and upon written notice to the Indemnitee, may assume the defense of any such action with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to defend a third party claim that (a) involves an actual conflict of interest, (b) seeks an injunction or other equitable relief against an Indemnitee or (c) is asserted by a Person who is a customer, supplier, licensor, licensee, partner or reseller of the Indemnitee or any Affiliate thereof. The Indemnitee shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any such action, with its own counsel and at its own cost and expense provided that the Indemnifying Party shall retain control of the defense of such action. The Indemnifying Party shall keep the Indemnitee apprised of the status of any third party claim for which it has assumed the defense, shall furnish the Indemnitee access to all non-confidential documents and information that such Indemnitee reasonably requests, and shall consult with the Indemnitee Party prior to acting on major matters, including settlement discussions. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of any such action, the Indemnitee may, but shall not be obligated to, defend against such action in such manner as it may deem appropriate, including settling such action, after giving notice of it to the Indemnifying Party, on such terms as the Indemnitee may deem appropriate, and no action taken by the Indemnitee in accordance with such defense and settlement shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations herein provided with respect to any damages resulting therefrom. The Indemnifying Party shall not settle any action without the Indemnitee’s prior written consent (which consent may be withheld in the Indemnitee’s sole discretion).

Section 8.6Tax Treatment. The Parties shall treat for Tax purposes any indemnity payment made pursuant to this Agreement as an adjustment to the total consideration payable under this Agreement, unless otherwise required by a change in law occurring after the Closing, a closing agreement with an applicable tax authority or a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

Section 8.7No Duplication of Recovery. Any claim for which any Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification hereunder shall be determined without duplication of recovery by reason of the state of facts giving rise to such claim constituting a breach of more than one representation, warranty, covenant or agreement.

Section 8.8Further Limitation on Indemnification. The Purchaser Indemnitors’ rights to indemnification, payment, reimbursement or any other remedy based upon a breach of or inaccuracy in any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation contained in this Agreement will be deemed to have been waived to the extent that Seller can reasonably demonstrate that Purchaser had Knowledge of such breach or inaccuracy prior to the Closing.

17

Section 8.9Other Matters. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no party will be entitled to indemnification or reimbursement under any provision of this Agreement for any amount to the extent such party or its Affiliate has been indemnified or reimbursed for such amount under any other provision of this Agreement, or any other document executed in connection with this Agreement.

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 9.1Assignment; Binding Agreement. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights or obligations hereunder may be assigned by any Seller, Company or Purchaser without the prior written consent of the other Purchaser and Sellers’ Agent. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Parties and to their respective successors and permitted assigns.

Section 9.2Entire Agreement, Modification and Waivers. This Agreement, together with any agreement related to the transactions contemplated hereby and the other documents and instruments referred to herein and all exhibits and schedules hereto, constitutes the entire agreement among the Parties pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings, negotiations and discussions, whether oral or written, of the Parties. This Agreement may be supplemented, modified or amended by the written agreement of Purchaser, Company and Sellers (or Sellers’ Agent on behalf of Sellers). No supplement, modification or other amendment or waiver of this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by the Party to be bound thereby. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provision hereof (whether or not similar), nor shall such waiver constitute a continuing waiver unless otherwise expressly provided.

Section 9.3Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is deemed or held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, this Agreement shall be considered divisible and inoperative as to such provision to the extent it is deemed to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, and in all other respects this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect; provided, however, that if any provision of this Agreement is deemed or held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable the Parties agree to replace such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision with a provision that is legal, valid and enforceable that achieves the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible. Further, if any provision contained in this Agreement is reformed or rewritten by any judicial body of competent jurisdiction, such provision, as so reformed or rewritten, shall be binding upon all Parties.

Section 9.4Counterparts; Electronic Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in two or more identical counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement, any and all agreements and instruments executed and delivered in accordance herewith, along with any amendments hereto and thereto, to the extent signed and delivered by means of email or other electronic transmission, shall be treated in all manner and respects and for all purposes as an original signature, agreement or instrument and shall be considered to have the same binding legal effect as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in Person.

Section 9.9Schedules. The Schedules and the Exhibits referenced in this Agreement are a material part hereof and shall be treated as if fully incorporated into the body of the Agreement.

Section 9.10No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Nothing expressed or referred to in this Agreement will be construed to give any Person other than the Parties (and their successors and assigns) any legal or equitable right, remedy, or claim under or with respect to this Agreement or any provision of this Agreement.

Section 9.11Submission to Jurisdiction; Waivers; Consent to Service of Process. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each Party irrevocably agrees that any legal action or Proceeding with respect to this Agreement or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect hereof brought by another Party or its successors or assigns shall be brought exclusively in the state and federal courts located in the City of Wilmington, State of Delaware, and each of the Parties hereby (x) irrevocably submits with regard to any such action or Proceeding for itself and in respect to its property, generally and unconditionally, to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts in the event any dispute arises out of this Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereby, (y) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court and (z) agrees that it will not bring any action relating to this Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereby in any court other than the aforesaid courts. Any service of process to be made in such action or Proceeding may be made by delivery of process in accordance with the notice provisions contained in Section 9.8. Each of the Parties hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any action or Proceeding with respect to this Agreement, (a) the defense of sovereign immunity, (b) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts for any reason other than the failure to serve process in accordance with this Section 9.11, (c) that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise), and (d) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable laws and regulations that (i) the action or Proceeding in any such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (ii) the venue of such action or Proceeding is improper and (iii) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts.

Section 9.12Other Remedies. Any and all remedies expressly conferred under this Agreement upon a Party will be deemed cumulative with, and not exclusive of, any other remedy conferred by law or equity upon such Party, and the exercise by a Party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy.

Section 9.13No Strict Construction. The Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. If an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement.

Section 9.14Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE REGULATIONS, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

Section 9.16Sellers’ Agent.

(a)EACH SELLER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY APPOINTS EACH SELLERS’ AGENT AS HIS/HER/ITS AGENT AND ATTORNEY-IN-FACT with full power and authority to act, either singly or together with the other Sellers’ Agent, for, in the name and on behalf of such Seller in connection with all matters related to this Agreement, the other Seller Transaction Document and/or any of the Transactions, and in furtherance (and not limitation) of the foregoing, each Seller hereby grants to each Sellers' Agent (acting singly or together with the other Sellers’ Agent) the full power and authority: (i) to execute and deliver all Seller Transaction Documents (other than this Agreement) in the name and on behalf of such Seller; (ii) to execute and deliver any and all supplements, modifications or amendments of, or waivers with respect to, this Agreement and all other Seller Transaction Documents (if any) in the name and on behalf of such Seller; (iii) to take all actions contemplated to be taken by such Seller or Sellers' Agent under this Agreement or any other Seller Transaction Document in connection with the Closing; (iv) to give receipts for Purchaser’s payments and deliveries contemplated by this Agreement; (v) to give and receive all notices and other communications relating to this Agreement or any other Seller Transaction Document; and (vi) to execute and deliver such other and further agreements, documents, instruments and certificates that the Sellers' Agents (or either of them) may determine to be necessary, advisable, convenient or proper in connection with the Transactions and/or Closing, all without notice to Sellers and with the same effect as if such Sellers they had himself/herself/itself taken such action.

(b)Each Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees that such Seller shall be bound by, and Purchaser and the Company may rely and act upon, any action taken by Sellers' Agents (or either of them) on behalf of such Seller (and/or Sellers generally) and upon any agreement(s), document(s), instrument(s) or certificate(s) executed by Sellers’ Agents (or either of them) with the same force and effect as if such Seller had himself/herself/itself so acted.

(c)By their execution hereof, Sellers' Agents hereby accept the appointment and powers granted under this Section 9.16 and agree to act as Sellers' Agent pursuant hereto. Sellers' Agents shall not be liable to Sellers for any action taken or omitted by Sellers' Agent in good faith, and in no event shall Sellers' Agents be liable or responsible except for his own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Sellers shall be liable, jointly and severally, to hold Sellers' Agents (acting in such capacity, but not in their capacity as a “Sellers”) harmless from, and to indemnify and reimburse Sellers' Agents for, all amounts paid by Sellers' Agent(s) pursuant to this Agreement or other Seller Transaction Documents and all claims, liabilities, losses, and expenses (including out-of-pocket and incidental expenses reasonably incurred and reasonable legal fees) arising in connection with any action, suit or claim arising under this Agreement or other Seller Transaction Documents, provided that such Sellers' Agent(s) has not acted with gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct with respect to any of the events relating to such claims, liabilities, losses or expenses.

Section 9.17Waiver of Firm Conflicts.

(a)Company and Sellers agree that they shall not seek to have The Crone Law Group P.C. (“CLG”) disqualified from representing Purchaser and/or the Company or any of its Affiliates in connection with any dispute that may arise between any Seller or any of his/its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, on the other, in connection with this Agreement or the Transactions. In the event of any such dispute, Sellers their Affiliates shall have the right to decide whether or not to waive the attorney-client privilege (the “Retained Privilege”) that may apply to any communications between Purchaser and/or Company and CLG that occurred before the Closing; provided that nothing in this Section 9.17(a) shall be construed as a waiver of any attorney-client privilege. Nothing in this Section 9.17(a) shall be construed as a waiver of any privilege controlled by Purchaser after the Closing (which for the avoidance of doubt excludes the Retained Privilege), nor shall anything herein be construed to permit CLG to communicate with any Seller or any of their respective Affiliates after the Closing any information subject to a privilege controlled by Purchaser and/or Company (which for the avoidance of doubt excludes the Retained Privilege). Notwithstanding any other provision herein, this Section 9.17(a) shall be irrevocable, and no term of this Section 9.17(a) may be amended, waived or modified, without the prior written consent of the Sellers and CLG.

21

(b)Each of the Parties hereto acknowledges and agrees, on its own behalf and on behalf of its directors, members, shareholders, partners, officers, employees and Affiliates, that: (1) Baucom Claytor (“BC”) has acted as counsel to (A) the Company and (B) Sellers (collectively, the "Seller Group") in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the Transactions. Purchaser agrees, and shall cause the Company to agree, that, following consummation of the Transactions, such representation and any prior representation of the Company by BC shall not preclude BC from serving as counsel to the Seller Group or any director, member, Hicks and BWatts, partner, officer or employee of BC, in connection with any litigation, claim or obligation arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Transactions contemplated hereby; (2) Purchaser shall not, and shall cause the Company not to, seek or have BC disqualified from any such representation based on the prior representation of the Company by BC. Each of the Parties hereto hereby consents thereto and waives any conflict of interest arising from such prior representation, and each of such Parties shall cause any of its Affiliates to consent to waive any conflict of interest arising from such representation. Each of the Parties acknowledges that such consent and waiver is voluntary, that it has been carefully considered, and that the Parties have consulted with counsel or have been advised they should do so in connection herewith. The covenants, consent and waiver contained in this Section 9.17(b) shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which BC is entitled whether pursuant to law, contract or otherwise. All communications between the Seller Group or the Company, on the one hand, and BC, on the other hand, relating to the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby (the "Privileged Communications") shall be deemed to be attorney-client privileged and the expectation of client confidence relating thereto shall belong solely to the Seller Group and shall not pass to or be claimed by Purchaser or the Company. Accordingly, Purchaser and the Company shall not have access to any Privileged Communications or to the files of BC relating to such engagement from and after Closing and may not use or rely on any Privileged Communications in any claim, dispute, action, suit or proceeding against or involving any of the Seller Group. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, from and after the Closing, (i) the Seller Group (and not Purchaser or the Company) shall be the sole holders of the attorney-client privilege with respect to such engagement, and none of Purchaser or the Company shall be a holders thereof, (ii) to the extent that files of BC in respect of such engagement constitute property of the client, only the Seller Group (and not Purchaser nor the Company) shall hold such property rights and (iii) BC shall have no duty whatsoever to reveal or disclose any such attorney-client communications or files to Purchaser or the Company by reason of any attorney-client relationship between BC and the Company or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a dispute arises between Purchaser and/or the Company, on the one hand, and a third party other than any of the Seller Group, on the other hand, Purchaser (and/or the Company) may assert the attorney-client privilege to prevent disclosure of confidential communications to such third party; provided, however, that Purchaser (and/or the Company) may waive such privilege without the prior written consent of the Seller Group, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. In the event that Purchaser or the Company is legally required by governmental order or otherwise legally required to access or obtain a copy of all or a portion of the Privileged Communications, to the extent (x) permitted by applicable law, and (y) advisable in the opinion of Purchaser's counsel, then Purchaser shall immediately (and, in any event, within 10 business days) notify Seller in writing so that Seller can seek a protective order. This Section 9.17(b) is intended for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, BC. This Section shall be irrevocable, and no term of this Section may be amended, waived or modified, without the prior written consent of BC.
