(iii) to holders of outstanding Indebtedness, if any, other than the ACFP Continuing Indebtedness, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, that amount of money due and owing from the Company to such holder of outstanding Indebtedness as set forth on the Closing Indebtedness Certificate.

Section 2.04 Purchase Price Adjustment.

(a) Closing Adjustment. Prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall have prepared and delivered to Buyer a written statement (the “Estimated Closing Statement”) setting forth Seller’s good faith estimate of (i) Cash as of the Closing (“Estimated Cash”), (ii) ACFP Continuing Indebtedness as of the Closing (“Estimated ACFP Continuing Indebtedness”); and (iii) the Net Indebtedness Amount as of the Closing (“Estimated Net Indebtedness Amount”), in each case, with reasonable supporting documentation and prepared in accordance with GAAP and the relevant definitions herein, together with a calculation of the BFI Consideration Share Amount, and BFI Consideration Shares, based on such estimates.

(b) Post-Closing Adjustment. Within thirty (30) days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Seller a written statement (the “Closing Statement”) setting forth its calculation of (i) Cash as of the Closing, (ii) ACFP Continuing Indebtedness as of the Closing and (iii) the Net Indebtedness Amount, as well as a balance sheet of the Company as of the Closing Date (without giving effect to the transactions contemplated herein) and a certificate of the Chief Financial Officer of Buyer that the

Closing Statement was prepared in accordance with GAAP applied using the same accounting methods, practices, principles, policies and procedures, with consistent classifications, judgments and valuation and estimation methodologies that were used in the preparation of the Audited Financial Statements for the most recent fiscal year end as if such Closing Statement was being prepared and audited as of a fiscal year end. The calculation of the purchase price adjustments set forth in this Section 2.04 does not permit the introduction of different accounting methods, policies, practices, procedures, conventions, classifications, definitions, principles, assumptions, techniques or estimation methodologies.

(i) Examination. After receipt of the Closing Statement, Seller shall have thirty (30) days (the “Review Period”) to review the Closing Statement. During the Review Period, Seller and Seller’s Accountants shall have full access to the books and records of the Company, the personnel of, and work papers prepared by, Buyer and/or Buyer’s Accountants to the extent that they relate to the Closing Statement and to such historical financial information (to the extent in Buyer’s possession) relating to the Closing Statement as Seller may reasonably request for the purpose of reviewing the Closing Statement and to prepare a Statement of Objections (defined below); provided, that such access shall be in a manner that does not interfere with the normal business operations of Buyer or the ACFP Companies.

(ii) Objection. On or prior to the last day of the Review Period, Seller may object to the Closing Statement by delivering to Buyer a written statement setting forth Seller’s objections in reasonable detail, indicating each disputed item or amount and the basis for Seller’s disagreement therewith (the “Statement of Objections”). If Seller fails to deliver the Statement of Objections before the expiration of the Review Period, the Closing Statement and the calculations of Cash, ACFP Continuing Indebtedness and Net Indebtedness Amount reflected in the Closing Statement shall be deemed to have been accepted by Seller. If Seller delivers the Statement of Objections before the expiration of the Review Period, Buyer and Seller shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such objections within fifteen (15) days after the delivery of the Statement of Objections (the “Resolution Period”), and, if the same are so resolved within the Resolution Period, the Closing Statement and the calculations set forth therein with such changes as may have been previously agreed in writing by Buyer and Seller, shall be final and binding.

(iii) Resolution of Disputes. If Seller and Buyer fail to reach an agreement with respect to all of the matters set forth in the Statement of Objections before expiration of the Resolution Period, then any amounts remaining in dispute (“Disputed Amounts” and any amounts not so disputed, the “Undisputed Amounts”) shall be submitted for resolution to the office of CohnReznick LLP or, if CohnReznick LLP is unable to serve, Buyer and Seller shall appoint by mutual agreement an impartial nationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants (who, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not be Seller’s Accountants or

Buyer’s Accountants) (the “Independent Accountant”). The Independent Accountant, acting as experts and not arbitrators, shall resolve the Disputed Amounts only and make any adjustments to the Net Indebtedness Amount, as the case may be, and the Closing Statement. The Parties agree that all adjustments shall be made without regard to materiality. The Independent Accountant shall only decide the specific items which are then Disputed Items and their decision for each Disputed Amount must be within the range of values assigned to each such item in the Closing Statement and the Statement of Objections, respectively.

(iv) Fees of the Independent Accountant. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant shall be paid by Seller, on the one hand, and by Buyer, on the other hand, based upon the percentage that the amount actually contested but not awarded to Seller or Buyer, respectively, bears to the aggregate amount actually contested by Seller and Buyer.

(v) Determination by Independent Accountant. The Independent Accountant shall make a determination as soon as practicable within thirty (30) days (or such other time as the Parties shall agree in writing) after their engagement, and their resolution of the Disputed Amounts and their adjustments to the Closing Statement and/or the Net Indebtedness Adjustment shall be conclusive and binding upon the Parties.

(d) The Cash, ACFP Continuing Indebtedness and Net Indebtedness Amount as of the Closing as agreed to by Buyer and Seller pursuant to Section 2.04(c)(ii) or as determined by the Independent Accountant pursuant to Section 2.04(c)(v) shall be deemed the “Final Cash,” “Final ACFP Continuing Indebtedness” and “Final Net Indebtedness Amount.”

(e) In the event that (i) the Estimated Net Indebtedness Amount is greater than the Final Net Indebtedness Amount, the BFI Consideration Share Amount shall be increased by an amount equal to the Estimated Net Indebtedness Amount minus the Final Net Indebtedness Amount, or (ii) the Final Net Indebtedness Amount is greater than the Estimated Net Indebtedness Amount, the BFI Consideration Share Amount shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Final Net Indebtedness Amount minus the Estimated Net Indebtedness Amount (the amount determined pursuant to clause (i) or (ii), as applicable, the “Net Indebtedness Adjustment”).

(f) Payments of Net Indebtedness Adjustment. Except as otherwise provided herein, any payment of the Net Indebtedness Adjustment, shall (i) be due (x) within five (5) Business Days of acceptance of the applicable Closing Statement or (y) if there are Disputed Amounts, then within five (5) Business Days of the resolution described in clause (ii) or (v) above; and (ii) be paid: (A) to the extent the Net Indebtedness Adjustment is in favor of Buyer, by transferring to Buyer a certain amount of Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Shares (valued at the Per Common Share Amount) representing such Net Indebtedness Adjustment amount, with the remainder of such Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Shares held in the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Fund (if any) to be transferred to Seller pursuant to joint written instructions to be executed by Buyer and

Seller and delivered to the Escrow Agent within such five (5) Business Day period; (B) to the extent the Net Indebtedness Adjustment is in favor of Seller, by (x) transferring all Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Shares held in the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Fund (if any) to Seller pursuant to joint written instructions to be executed by Buyer and Seller and delivered to the Escrow Agent within such five (5) Business Day period and (y) BFI issuing to Seller, within such five (5) Business Day period, additional shares of BFI Common Stock (valued at the price per share of the BFI Common Stock at the close of trading on the Closing Date) representing such Net Indebtedness Adjustment amount; and (C) to the extent the amount of a Net Indebtedness Adjustment in favor of Buyer exceeds the amount represented by the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Fund, by transferring to Buyer an additional amount of Indemnification Escrow Shares equal to such shortfall (valued at the Per Common Share Amount) pursuant to joint written instructions to be executed by Buyer and Seller and delivered to the Escrow Agent within such five (5) Business Day period; provided, in such event, Seller shall transfer an amount of BFI Consideration Common Shares equal to such shortfall amount up to $4,000,000 (valued at the Per Common Share Amount) into the Indemnification Escrow Fund within three (3) Business Days in order to replace the Indemnification Escrow Shares that were used for the shortfall of the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Fund.

(g) Adjustments for Tax Purposes. Any payments made pursuant to Section 2.04 and Section 2.05 shall be treated as an adjustment to the Total Consideration by the Parties for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.

Section 2.05 Locked Box and Leakage.

(a) Seller agrees that, except for Permitted Leakage, during the period following the Locked Box Date and ending at the Closing (the occurrence of any of the following events after the Locked Box Date and at or before the Closing, which are not Permitted Leakage, constituting an incidence of “Leakage”):

(i) no ACFP Company has declared, authorized, paid or made, or agreed to pay or make, any dividend, distribution, return of capital or disbursement (whether in cash or in-kind) to, or on behalf of, Seller or any Seller Related Person;

(ii) no ACFP Company has declared, authorized, paid or made, or agreed to pay or make, any other payments to be made (including management fees, consulting fees, professional advisors’ fees, monitoring fees, service or directors’ fees, bonuses, pension, severance or other compensation of any kind) by the Company to, on behalf of, or for the benefit of Seller or any Seller Related Person;

(iii) no ACFP Company has transferred or surrendered any asset to, or assumed, indemnified or incurred any Liability for the benefit of, Seller or any Seller Related Person, or payment by an ACFP Company of Tax due by Seller or any Seller Related Person, or associated with past termination severance agreements, past settled, but unpaid litigation matters or unpaid lease termination costs, or any agreement or obligation to take such action;

(iv) no ACFP Company has made any repayment of principal on any Indebtedness or payment of any interest on or other payment in relation to any Indebtedness obligation to Seller or any Seller Related Person;

(v) no ACFP Company has waived or agreed to waive (i) any amount owed to such ACFP Company by Seller, its Affiliates, their Representatives, the Company Related Persons or the Seller Related Persons; or (ii) any Actions by such ACFP in respect of any Contract or otherwise with Seller or any Seller Related Person;

(vi) no ACFP Company has assumed, incurred, paid or prepaid, or agreed to pay or prepay, any professional fees, broker fees, agent fees or expenses or other similar costs in connection with this Agreement and the Transaction Documents, including the Transaction Expenses (it being acknowledged by Buyer that any payments of Transaction Expenses are not deemed to be a breach of this Agreement and are instead subject to Section 10.01 hereof);

(vii) no ACFP Company has made any other transfer of value of any nature (whether in cash or in in kind) from an ACFP Company to or for the benefit of Seller or any Seller Related Person;

(viii) no ACFP Company has granted any indemnity to, or for the benefit, of Seller or any Seller Related Person; and

(ix) no ACFP Company has paid or agreed to pay any fees, costs or Tax or other amounts as a result of the matters set out in the foregoing Section 2.05(a)(i) through (viii).

(b) By no later than two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing, Seller shall deliver to Buyer a statement setting forth any Leakage, if applicable (the “Leakage Closing Statement”), including the final amount of the Transaction Expenses to be paid at Closing or which were paid between the Locked Box Date and the Closing (the “Final Company Transaction Expenses”). At Closing, in the event of any Leakage, the BFI Consideration Share Amount shall be reduced by an amount equal to such Leakage included on the Leakage Closing Statement.

(c) There shall be no reduction in the BFI Consideration Share Amount under Section 2.05(b) unless Buyer has notified Seller in writing of its breach of Section 2.05(a), or the claim under Section 2.05(b), stating in reasonable detail the nature of the breach and, if practicable, the amount claimed, within sixty (60) days of the Closing Date.

(d) In the event Buyer makes a claim of any additional Leakage not included in the Leakage Closing Statement and notifies Seller in accordance with Section 2.05(c), the dispute resolution mechanics described in Section 2.04(c), and the final resulting determination of Leakage (whether by the parties’ mutual agreement or by determination by the Independent Accountant, as applicable), shall apply to such claim of Leakage mutatis mutandis. In the event of a final determination of any additional Leakage, Seller shall transfer to Buyer BFI Common Stock representing the cash equivalent value of the

amount of such additional Leakage (valued at the Per Common Share Amount), with such transfer made within five (5) Business Days of the final determination of any additional Leakage pursuant to this Section 2.05(d); provided, if Seller does not have sufficient BFI Common Stock to repay Buyer for such Leakage, Seller (or its applicable Affiliate(s), Representative, Company Related Person or Seller Related Person) shall transfer BFI Preferred Stock to Buyer representing the cash equivalent value of the amount of such shortfall, with such transfer made simultaneously with the transfer of BFI Common Stock to Buyer pursuant to this Section 2.05(d).

(e) The aggregate Liability of Seller in respect of this Section 2.05 shall not exceed an amount equal to the Leakage actually received by or benefitted to Seller or any Seller Related Person, plus any professional fees incurred by Buyer and Seller in determining the final amount of the Leakage. Buyer shall have no other remedy available to it in respect of any breach of the covenants provided by Seller under Section 2.05(a) other than that provided under Section 2.05(b).

Section 2.06 Compliance with Rules of Principal Market. Buyer shall not issue or sell any shares of BFI Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement, and Seller shall not purchase or acquire any shares of BFI Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement, to the extent that after giving effect thereto, the aggregate number of shares of BFI Common Stock that would be issued pursuant to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including with respect to the Option Consideration Shares, would exceed 3,578,405 (representing 19.99% of the shares of BFI Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the execution of this Agreement), which number of shares shall be (i) reduced, on a share-for-share basis, by the number of shares of BFI Common Stock issued or issuable pursuant to any transaction or series of transactions that may be aggregated with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement under applicable rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) and (ii) appropriately adjusted for any reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split or other similar transaction that occurs after the date of this Agreement (such maximum number of shares, the “Exchange Cap”). For the avoidance of any doubt, in the event the issuance of any BFI Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement would otherwise result in the number of shares of BFI Common Stock being in excess of the Exchange Cap, Buyer shall not issue such excess shares in the form of BFI Common Stock and shall instead issue to Seller additional shares of BFI Series A Preferred Stock (valued at a price per share of $25.00) in an amount equal to the aggregate value of such excess shares of BFI Common Stock (valued at the Per Common Share Amount).

Section 2.07 Treatment of Company Options.

(a) Effective as of the Closing, Buyer shall assume the Company Option Plan and all of the Company Options (other than Out-of-Money Options) that are outstanding and unexercised at the time of the Closing. Immediately following the Closing, the Company and Buyer shall cause the applicable award agreements issued to each Company Option Holder under the Company Option Plan to be amended pursuant to the applicable Amendment to the Company Stock Option Agreement and without any action on the part of the Company Option Holder thereof. Pursuant to each Amendment to the Company Stock Option Agreement and subject to the terms and conditions thereof, each Company Option (other than Out-of-Money Options) that is outstanding and unexercised

immediately following the Closing shall be converted into a number of shares of BFI Common Stock (each such share of BFI Common Stock, an “Option Consideration Share”) equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the product of (A) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of each such Company Option by (B) the excess of (1) the Company Per Share Value less (2) the exercise price per share applicable to such Company Option, by (ii) the BFI Closing Date Price.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, effective as of the Closing, each Out-of-Money Option shall be cancelled without any consideration in respect thereof.

(c) As soon as reasonably practicable following the final delivery of the Final Allocation Table as provided in Section 5.18(b), the Company and Buyer will use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver to each applicable Company Option Holder such Company Option Holder’s Amendment to the Company Stock Option Agreement pursuant to this Section 2.07, duly executed by the Company and Buyer.

(d) Prior to the Closing, (i) the Company shall take, or cause to be taken, all corporate action reasonably necessary under the Company Option Plan or otherwise to give effect to the provisions of this Section 2.07 and (ii) Buyer shall take all corporate action reasonably necessary to reserve for issuance a sufficient number of shares of BFI Common Stock for delivery with respect to the Option Consideration Shares issued by it in accordance with this Section 2.07.

(e) On the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-8 covering the issuance of all of the Option Consideration Shares. The registration statement will become effective under the Securities Act automatically upon filing with the SEC.

Section 2.08 Closing. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the purchase and sale of the Shares contemplated hereby shall take place at a closing (the “Closing”) to be held at 9 a.m., Eastern time, no later than two (2) Business Days after the last of the conditions to Closing set forth in ARTICLE VII have been satisfied or waived (other than conditions which, by their nature, are to be satisfied on the Closing Date), at the offices of Holland & Knight, LLP, 701 Brickell Avenue, Suite 3300, Miami, Florida 33131 or remotely by exchange of documents and signatures (or their electronic counterparts), or at such other time or on such other date or at such other place as Seller and Buyer may mutually agree upon in writing (the day on which the Closing takes place being the “Closing Date”). The Parties shall use commercially reasonable best efforts to cause the Closing Date to occur on or before November 15, 2021.

Section 2.09 Withholding Tax. Buyer and the Company shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the Total Consideration all Taxes that Buyer and the Company may be required to deduct and withhold under any provision of Tax Law; provided that Buyer provides Seller with at least five (5) days’ advance notice of the applicability of any withholding Tax and Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to work together with Seller during such five (5) day period to reduce or eliminate any such withholding Tax, to the extent possible under applicable Laws. Any amounts so deducted and withheld will be remitted by Buyer to the appropriate Governmental Authority on a timely basis. To the extent that amounts are so deducted and withheld and remitted to the applicable Governmental Authority, such amounts will be treated for all purposes as having been paid to Seller.

(f) Section 4.12(f) of the Disclosure Schedules sets forth a list of all forms of FDDs that Franchisor has used to offer or sell Franchises at any time since January 1, 2018.

Since January 1, 2018, (i) all FDDs that Franchisor has used to offer or sell franchises at any time since January 1, 2018 have contained all information required by the FTC Rule and other Franchise Laws in all material respects, (ii) no such FDD contains any statement which is false or misleading with respect to any material fact, or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements made therein not false or misleading in light of the circumstances under which they are made, (iii) Franchisor has been in compliance with all Franchise Laws in all material respects and have not offered or sold any Franchise in material violation of any Franchise Law, and (iv) Franchisor has complied in all material respects with all the proper cause for default, default notice, time to cure, and actual termination requirements of any Franchise Agreement and as required by any Franchise Law.

(g) Neither the execution of this Agreement nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby: (i) will require the consent or approval by any Franchisee or Franchise council or association, Governmental Authority or other Third Party, or (ii) will result in a violation of or a default under, or give rise to a right of termination, modification, cancellation, rescission or acceleration of any obligation or loss of material benefits under, any Franchise Agreement.

(d) From and after the Closing, the failure to give any notification described in this Section 5.04 shall not be treated as a breach of covenant for purposes of the indemnification obligations of the Parties pursuant to Section 8.02 and Section 8.03.

Section 5.05 Employment Matters.

(a) For the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on December 31, 2022, Buyer will provide (or cause an Affiliate of Buyer, including after the Closing, the ACFP Companies to provide): (i) each ACFP Continuing Executive and ACFP Continuing Officer with annual base salary or wages and incentive compensation opportunities that are no less than the annual base salary, wages and incentive compensation opportunities, respectively, provided to such ACFP Continuing Officer immediately prior to the Closing Date, (ii) each ACFP Continuing Executive, ACFP Continuing Officer and each Continuing Employee with employee benefits (including, solely with respect to the ACFP Continuing Executives and the ACFP Continuing Officers, severance benefits) that are not less favorable to such ACFP Continuing Executive, ACFP Continuing Officer or Continuing Employee, as applicable, than the most favorable of (A) those benefits provided to such ACFP Continuing Officer or Continuing Employee, as applicable, immediately prior to the Closing Date and (B) those benefits that Buyer provides to its similarly situated employees during such period.

(b) Buyer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to enter into an amended and restated employment agreement with each of the ACFP Continuing Executives so that each such ACFP Continuing Executive’s Existing Employment Agreement would be subject to a term expiring on December 31, 2022.

(c) From and after the Closing, Buyer shall give or cause to be given to each Continuing Employee, each ACFP Continuing Executive and each ACFP Continuing Officer full credit for all purposes (including for purposes of eligibility to participate or receive benefits, vesting, benefit accrual, level of benefits and early retirement subsidies and including for purposes of severance, vacation/paid time off and similar benefits and for any purposes as may be required under applicable Law), other than for benefit accrual purposes under any defined benefit pension plan, or for purposes of any equity, deferred compensation or long term incentive plan, under each employee benefit plan, program or arrangement established or maintained by Buyer under which such Continuing Employees, ACFP Continuing Executives and ACFP Continuing Officers are eligible to participate on or after the Closing for service accrued or deemed accrued on or prior to the Closing with an ACFP Company to the same extent that such credit was recognized by Seller under comparable Benefit Plans immediately prior to the Closing; provided, however, that such credit need not be provided to the extent that such credit would result in any duplication of benefits for the same period of service. In addition, Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) cause to be waived all pre-existing condition exclusions and actively at work requirements, eligibility waiting periods and evidence of insurability requirements under any benefit or compensation plan, program, agreement or arrangement maintained by Buyer or the ACFP Companies or any of their Affiliates for the benefit of Continuing Employees, ACFP Continuing Executives and ACFP Continuing Officers on or after the Closing Date (each, a “New Plan”) to the extent waived or satisfied by any Continuing Employee, ACFP Continuing Executive, ACFP Continuing Officer or any covered dependent thereof, as of the Closing Date under an analogous Benefit Plan and (ii) cause any deductible, co-insurance and covered out-of-pocket expenses paid on or before the Closing Date by any Continuing Employee, ACFP Continuing Executive, ACFP Continuing Officer or any covered dependent thereof, to be taken into account for purposes of satisfying the corresponding deductible, coinsurance and maximum out of pocket provisions after the Closing Date under any applicable New Plan in the plan year in which the Closing Date occurs (to the same extent as such expenses would have been taken into account under the analogous Benefit Plan prior to the Closing). For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 5.05(c) does not apply to a Continuing Employee’s annual base salary, wages, layoff or any other incentive compensation opportunities and neither Buyer nor any Affiliate of Buyer shall have any restrictions related thereto as a result of this Section 5.05(c).

(d) The provisions contained in this Section 5.05 are included for the sole benefit of the Parties and shall not create any rights or remedies (including any third party beneficiary right) in any Person that is not a Party, including any employee or any participant in any Benefit Plan (or any dependent or beneficiary thereof). Without limiting the requirements of the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall or shall be construed so as to create any Benefit Plan.

Section 5.06 Confidentiality.

(a) The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Confidentiality Agreement is incorporated hereby by reference and existence and terms of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby are strictly confidential; provided, that such information may be disclosed (i) by Buyer to potential investors in order to gauge their support of, or considering providing financing, for the transactions contemplated hereby; (ii) as required by applicable Law; (iii) by order of a court of competent jurisdiction; or (iv) the rules of Nasdaq or any other national securities exchange or association.

(b) Each of the Company and Seller acknowledges and agrees that (i) federal securities laws prohibit any person who has “material non-public information” concerning a public company such as Buyer from purchasing or selling any of that company’s securities, and from communicating such information to any person under circumstances in which it is reasonably foreseeable that such person is likely to purchase or sell such securities; (ii) some of the confidential information of Buyer (including this Agreement) may be considered “material non-public information” for purposes of federal securities laws and that Seller, each ACFP Company and their Representatives will abide by all securities laws relating to the handling of and acting upon material non-public information; and (iii) trading in Buyer’s securities while in possession of material non-public information or communicating that information to another Person who trades in such securities could subject Seller, each ACFP Company and their Representatives, as applicable, to liability under the U.S. federal and state securities laws, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, including Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder. Each of the Company and Seller acknowledges and agrees that it and its Affiliates will not trade in Buyer’s securities while in possession of material non-public information or at all until such party can do so in compliance with all applicable Laws, in compliance with the lock-up provision in the Registration Rights Agreement and without breach of this Agreement.

Section 5.07 Governmental Approvals and Consents.

Each Party shall cooperate fully with the other Parties and their Affiliates in promptly seeking to obtain all such consents, authorizations, orders and approvals.

(i) respond promptly to any inquiries by any Governmental Authority regarding antitrust or other matters with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Transaction Documents;

(ii) avoid the imposition of any order or the taking of any action that would restrain, alter or enjoin the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Transaction Documents; and

(iii) in the event any Governmental Order adversely affecting the ability of the Parties to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Transaction Documents has been issued, to have such Governmental Order vacated or lifted.

(d) If any consent, approval or authorization necessary to preserve any right or benefit under any Contract to which an ACFP Company is a party is not obtained prior to the Closing, the Company and Seller shall, subsequent to the Closing, cooperate with Buyer and the ACFP Company in attempting to obtain such consent, approval or authorization as promptly thereafter as practicable. If such consent, approval or authorization cannot be obtained, the Company and Seller shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts to provide the applicable ACFP Company with the rights and benefits of the affected Contract for the term thereof, and, if the Company or Seller provides such rights and benefits, the ACFP Company shall assume all obligations and burdens thereunder.

(e) All analyses, appearances, meetings, discussions, presentations, memoranda, briefs, filings, arguments, and proposals made by or on behalf of any Party before any Governmental Authority or the staff or regulators of any Governmental Authority, in connection with the transactions contemplated hereunder (but, for the avoidance of doubt, not including any interactions between Buyer, Seller or the Company with Governmental Authorities in the ordinary course of business or any disclosure which is not permitted by Law) shall be disclosed to the other Party’s outside counsel hereunder in advance of any filing, submission or attendance, it being the intent that the Parties will consult and cooperate with one another, and consider in good faith the views of one another, in connection with any such analyses, appearances, meetings, discussions, presentations, memoranda, briefs, filings, arguments, and proposals. Each Party shall give notice to the other Parties with respect to any meeting, discussion, appearance or contact with any Governmental Authority or the staff or regulators of any Governmental Authority, with such notice being sufficient to provide the other Parties with the opportunity to attend and participate in such meeting, discussion, appearance or contact.

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 5.07 shall require, or be construed to require, Buyer or any of its Affiliates to: (i) sell, hold, divest, discontinue or limit, before or after the Closing Date, any assets, businesses or interests of Buyer, the BFI Companies, the ACFP Companies or any of their respective Affiliates; (ii) agree to

any conditions relating to, or changes or restrictions in, the operations of any such assets, businesses or interests which, in either case, could reasonably be expected to result in a Buyer Material Adverse Effect or materially and adversely impact the economic or business benefits to Buyer of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; or (iii) agree to any material modification or waiver of the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

(g) After the date hereof, Buyer shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, acquire or agree to acquire any assets (including any equity interest in any Person) prior to the Closing if such acquisition or agreement would reasonably be expected to: (i) delay or increase the risk of not obtaining any consent or other approval necessary from any Governmental Authority under any applicable Law for the consummation of the Closing; or (ii) increase the risk of any Governmental Authority entering or not vacating, lifting, reversing or otherwise overturning any injunction, judgment or other order under any Law that would prevent, prohibit, restrict or delay the consummation of the Closing; provided, however, the Parties acknowledge and agree that Buyer and its Affiliates may enter into a lease agreement, including with a Related Person, in relation to office space for the BFI Companies and/or the ACFP Companies.

None of Buyer or any of the ACFP Companies shall settle, compromise or consent to the entry of judgment in any action or investigation or threatened action or investigation, in each case, against a D&O Indemnified Person without the prior written consent of such D&O Indemnified Person (not to be unreasonably withheld).

(c) Buyer shall maintain the D&O Policy (or a successor policy with terms substantially similar to the D&O Policy) for so long as the holders of BFI Series A Preferred Stock elect to designate a member of the Buyer Board in accordance with the Certificate of Designation, unless otherwise approved by the Buyer Board with the consent of the Series A Preferred Stock Director (as defined in the Certificate of Designation); provided, however, that in no event shall Buyer be required to expend an annual premium for such coverage in excess of one hundred and fifty percent (150%) of the last annual premium paid by Buyer or an ACFP Company for such insurance period prior to the date of this Agreement (the “Maximum Premium”). If such insurance coverage cannot be obtained at an annual premium equal to or less than the Maximum Premium, the Company and Buyer shall cause the applicable ACFP Company to obtain that amount of D&O Insurance obtainable for an annual premium equal to the Maximum Premium.

(d) If Buyer, any ACFP Company or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and is not the continuing or surviving Person of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers or conveys 50% or more of its properties and other assets to any Person (including by liquidation, dissolution or assignment for the benefit of creditors or similar action), then in each such case Buyer or the ACFP Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause proper provisions to be made so that the applicable successors and assigns or transferees expressly assume the obligations set forth in this Section 5.18.

(e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the rights and benefits of the D&O Indemnified Persons under this Section 5.18 shall not be terminated or modified in any manner adverse to any D&O Indemnified Person without the prior written consent of such D&O Indemnified Person. The provisions of this Section 5.18 are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each D&O Indemnified Person, his or her heirs and his or her executors, administrators and personal representatives, each of whom is an intended third-party beneficiary of this Section 5.18, and are in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights, including rights to indemnification or contribution that any such Person may have by Contract or otherwise.

Section 5.17 Financing Cooperation. From and after the date hereof, Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and do, or cause to be done, as promptly as possible, all things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable to (i) satisfy, or cause to be satisfied, on a timely basis (or obtain a waiver of) all conditions to Buyer assuming the ACFP Continuing Indebtedness, in each case, to the extent within Buyer’s control and (ii) negotiate and enter into the Continuance of ACFP Debt Documents substantially on the terms and conditions set forth in the Consent Letter and in a form reasonably acceptable to Buyer. Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to, and shall cause each of its controlled Affiliates to use commercially reasonable efforts to, cooperate with Seller in connection with the assumption of the ACFP Continuing Indebtedness, which shall include: (i) furnishing Seller and the Financing Parties customary financial and other information regarding Buyer and its Subsidiaries reasonably requested by Seller and the Financing Parties to consummate assumption of the ACFP Continuing Indebtedness, (ii) upon prior written notice and at reasonable times, making appropriate officers of Buyer and its Subsidiaries available for participation in a reasonable number of meetings or due diligence sessions with the Financing Parties (it being understood that such meetings and sessions may occur telephonically or by videoconferencing), (iii) assisting Seller in connection with its preparation of one or more credit agreements, as well as other pledge and security documents or other documents, certificates (including a solvency certificate), incumbencies and authorizations, in each case as may be reasonably requested by Seller and (iv) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing, providing all documentation and other information about Buyer and its Subsidiaries as the Financing Parties reasonably determine is required by applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations including the USA PATRIOT Act, to the extent requested by Seller in writing at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the Closing. Buyer and each of its controlled Affiliates hereby consents to the customary and reasonable use of its logos solely for the purpose of the assumption of the ACFP Continuing Indebtedness.

Section 5.18 Funds Flow Memorandum; Closing Allocation Table. Prior to the Closing, Seller shall deliver to Buyer: (i) a Funds Flow Memorandum (the “Funds Flow Memorandum”) setting forth the Final Company Transaction Expenses in a customary form and (ii) the Closing Allocation Table setting forth Seller’s good faith final determination of the Option Consideration Shares allocated to each holder of Company Options pursuant to Section 2.07.

Section 5.19 Section 280G Waiver. Prior to the Closing, the Company shall determine, in its reasonable discretion, if any payments or benefits provided in connection with the execution of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby would otherwise result in “excess parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(1) of the Code. If the Company determines that such “excess parachute payments” would result, then the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to solicit waivers from the recipients of such payments and benefits and conduct a shareholder vote in a manner intended to comply with Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code.

Section 5.20 BFI Management Compensation. The Parties acknowledge and agree that Buyer shall have the option to award up to $500,000 of discretionary performance bonuses to certain members of Buyer management and consultants as soon as practicable after the Closing in relation to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 5.21 Board of Directors. For so long as Seller, its Affiliates and any Seller Related Persons, directly or indirectly, hold collectively 42.5% or more of the shares of BFI Common Stock issued to Seller at Closing (the “Seller Ownership Threshold”), Seller shall have the option and right (but not the obligation), by delivering a written notice of such designation to Buyer, to designate one director (who shall be a Class C director if Buyer’s board of directors remains so classified) (the “Seller Designated BFI Director”) and one non-voting observer (the “Seller Designated BFI Board Observer”) to the Buyer Board. As of, or following the Closing, at Seller’s election, its Seller Designated BFI Director and/or Seller Designated BFI Board Observer shall be promptly appointed to the Buyer Board subject to the other terms of this Section 5.21. If the Seller Designated BFI Director ceases to serve as a member of the Buyer Board prior to the expiration of such director’s term, then Seller shall be entitled to designate a director nominee as such director’s successor, it being understood that any such designee shall serve the remainder of the term of the director whom such designee shall replace, or until her or his successor is duly elected and qualified or until her or his earlier resignation or removal. No Seller Designated BFI Director may serve as a director and no Seller Designated BFI Board Observer may serve as an observer if such person would be prohibited from serving as a director or observer, as applicable, pursuant to applicable securities law or rule or regulation of the SEC or applicable rules of the Principal Trading Market or other applicable Law, or opposed by a majority of the other members of Buyer Board based on an exercise of their fiduciary duties to Buyer’s stockholders acting in good faith and without limiting the rights of Seller to designate an alternate designee. Seller shall further have the option and right (but not the obligation) to (x) in the event Seller elects to designate a Seller Designated BFI Director, have representation on each committee of Buyer’s board of directors, and (y) to the extent Seller does not have representation on a committee of Buyer’s board of directors, appoint a non-voting observer (a “Seller Designated Committee Observer”) to any or all committees of which a Seller Designated BFI Director is not a member. Subject to the other provisions of this Section 5.21 and applicable Law, the initial Seller Designated BFI Director (if any) designated by Seller shall serve as the Seller Designated BFI

Director until the expiration of her or his term of office or such earlier time as Seller elects to replace the initial Seller Designated BFI Director or any successors thereof upon written notice to Buyer as provided herein. Any Seller Designated BFI Director may be removed by Seller upon written notice in accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws and applicable Law, or by the stockholders of Buyer at a duly called special meeting or annual meeting for the purpose of electing the Seller Designated BFI Director. In the event of the resignation, death or removal of any Seller Designated BFI Director, Seller Designated BFI Board Observer or Seller Designated Committee Observer from Buyer’s board of directors or any committee thereof, as applicable, provided the Seller Ownership Threshold continues to be met, Seller shall have the continuing right to appoint a successor Seller Designated BFI Director, Seller Designated BFI Board Observer or Seller Designated Committee Observer, as applicable, to the Buyer Board or any committee thereof, as applicable, to fill the resulting vacancy on the Buyer Board or any applicable committee thereof; provided, however, that the successor Seller Designated BFI Director, Seller Designated BFI Board Observer, or Seller Designated Committee Observer shall not be prohibited from serving as a director, committee member, or observer pursuant to applicable securities law or rule or regulation of the SEC or applicable rules of the Principal Trading Market or other applicable Law, or shall not be opposed by a majority of the other members of the Buyer Board based on an exercise of their fiduciary duties to Buyer’s stockholders acting in good faith and without limiting the rights of Seller to designate an alternate designee. Annually with respect to the Seller Designated BFI Director, including the initial Seller Designated BFI Director, and promptly upon the request of Buyer, Seller shall provide the following information to Buyer: (A) the name, age, business address and residence address of the person, (B) the principal occupation or employment and a biography of the Seller Designated BFI Director, (C) the class or series and number of shares of capital stock of Buyer that are beneficially owned or owned of record by the Seller Designated BFI Director and (D) any other information relating to the Seller Designated BFI Director that would be required to be disclosed in a proxy statement or other filings required to be made in connection with solicitations of proxies for election of directors pursuant to Section 14 of the Exchange Act. So long as Seller has the right to designate the Seller Designated BFI Director pursuant to this Section 5.21 and the Seller Designated BFI Director meets the suitability requirements specified herein, Buyer shall ensure that (x) such Seller Designated BFI Director is included as the sole nominee for the applicable board seat in the Buyer Board’s slate of nominees to the stockholders for the applicable election of directors together with a recommendation of the Buyer Board to stockholders to vote in favor of such nominee and (y) such Seller Designated BFI Director is included in the proxy statement prepared by the management of Buyer in connection with the solicitation of proxies for the applicable meeting of the stockholders of Buyer called with respect to the election of the members of the Buyer Board, and at every adjournment or postponement thereof, and on any applicable action or approval by written consent of the stockholders of Buyer with respect to the election of members of the Buyer Board in each case in a manner consistent with the foregoing clause (x). For so long as Seller shall have the right to designate the Seller Designated BFI Board Observer pursuant to this Section 5.21, the Executive Chairman of the Buyer Board shall also have the option and right (but not the obligation) to designate one non-voting observer to the board of directors and any and all committees on the same terms as stated herein.

ARTICLE VI

TAX MATTERS

Section 6.01 Tax Covenants.

(a) Without the prior written consent of Buyer (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), Seller (and, prior to the Closing, Company, any other ACFP Company, their Affiliates and their respective Representatives) shall not, to the extent it may affect, or relate to, an ACFP Company, make, change or rescind any material Tax election or amend any Tax Return, in each case, that would have the effect of increasing the Tax liability or reducing any Tax asset of Buyer or an ACFP Company in respect of any Post-Closing Tax Period, in each case, other than in the ordinary course of business and in accordance with past practice.

(b) All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration, value added and other such Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Transaction Documents (including any real property transfer Tax and any other similar Tax) (collectively, “Transfer Taxes”) shall be borne 50% by Buyer and 50% by Seller. The Party required under applicable Law to file a Tax Return with respect to such Transfer Taxes shall do so within the time period prescribed by applicable Law, and the non-filing Party shall promptly pay the filing Party for its share of any Transfer Taxes (and associated costs) so payable by such filing Party, if practicable prior to the payment of such Transfer Taxes by the filing Party and in all events within ten (10) days of receipt of written notice that such Transfer Taxes are payable. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, Buyer and Seller shall cooperate in taking reasonable steps to minimize any Transfer Taxes.

(c) Seller shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, and Buyer shall cause each ACFP Company to file, all income Tax Returns required to be filed by an ACFP Company after the Closing Date with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period (other than any Pre-Closing Tax Period included in a Straddle Period). Any such Tax Return shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past practice (unless otherwise required by Law). Buyer shall have at least ten (10) Business Days to review all such Tax Returns prior to filing, and Seller shall consider in good faith all reasonable comments proposed by Buyer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any such Tax Return would adversely affect the Company and/or Buyer in a Post-Closing Tax Period, and Buyer and Seller are unable to reach an agreement within ten (10) days after receipt by Seller of Buyer’s comments, the disputed items shall be resolved by the Independent Accountant and, absent fraud or manifest error, any determination by the Independent Accountant shall be final and binding on the Parties. The Independent Accountant shall resolve any disputed items within twenty (20) days of having the item referred to it pursuant to such procedures as it may require. If the Independent Accountant is unable to resolve any disputed items before the due date for such Tax Return, the Tax Return shall be filed as prepared by Seller and then amended to reflect the Independent Accountant’s resolution. The costs, fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant shall be borne equally by Buyer and Seller.

(d) Buyer shall prepare and timely file, or shall cause to be prepared and timely filed, all Tax Returns required to be filed by an ACFP Company after the Closing Date with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period (other than those covered by Section 6.01(c)), including any Tax Returns that relate to a Straddle Period, and such Tax Returns shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past practice (unless otherwise required by Law). Seller shall have at least ten (10) Business Days to review all such Tax Returns prior to filing, and Buyer shall consider in good faith and include all reasonable comments proposed by Seller. If Buyer and Seller are unable to reach an agreement within ten (10) days after receipt by Buyer of Seller’s comments, the disputed items shall be resolved by the Independent Accountant and, absent fraud or manifest error, any determination by the Independent Accountant shall be final and binding on the Parties. The Independent Accountant shall resolve any disputed items within twenty (20) days of having the item referred to it pursuant to such procedures as it may require. If the Independent Accountant is unable to resolve any disputed items before the due date for such Tax Return, the Tax Return shall be filed as prepared by Buyer and then amended to reflect the Independent Accountant’s resolution. The costs, fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant shall be borne equally by Buyer and Seller.

(e) The preparation and filing of any Tax Return of an ACFP Company that does not relate to a Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be exclusively within the control of Buyer.

Section 6.02 Termination of Existing Tax Sharing Agreements. Any and all existing Tax sharing agreements (whether written or not) binding upon an ACFP Company shall be terminated as of the Closing Date. After such date none of the ACFP Companies, Seller nor any of Seller’s Affiliates and their respective Representatives shall have any further rights or liabilities thereunder.

Section 6.03 Tax Indemnification. Other than any Loss or Taxes (x) that are a direct result of a Buyer Tax Act and only to the extent thereof or (y) that were taken into account in the calculation of Leakage, Seller shall indemnify each ACFP Company, Buyer, and each Buyer Indemnitee and hold them harmless from and against (a) any Loss attributable to any breach of or inaccuracy in any representation or warranty made in Section 3.21; (b) any Loss attributable to any breach or violation of, or failure to fully perform, any covenant, agreement, undertaking or obligation in ARTICLE VI; (c) all Taxes of the Company or relating to the ACFP Business for all Pre-Closing Tax Periods; (d) all Taxes of any member of an affiliated, consolidated, combined or unitary group of which the Company (or any predecessor of an ACFP Company) was a member on or prior to the Closing Date by reason of a liability under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-6 or any comparable provisions of foreign, state or local Law; and (e) any and all Taxes of any person imposed on an ACFP Company arising under the principles of transferee or successor liability or by contract, relating to an event or transaction occurring before the Closing Date. Any Taxes of any ACFP Company that are the responsibility of Seller pursuant to this Section 6.03, together with any reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses (including attorneys’ and accountants’ fees), shall be satisfied in the manner described in Section 6.09.

Section 6.04 Straddle Period. In the case of Taxes that are payable with respect to a taxable period that begins before and ends after the Closing Date (each such period, a “Straddle Period”), the portion of any such Taxes that are treated as Pre-Closing Taxes for purposes of this Agreement shall be:

(a) in the case of Taxes (i) based upon, or related to, income, receipts, profits, wages, capital or net worth, (ii) imposed in connection with the sale, transfer or assignment of property, or (iii) required to be withheld, deemed equal to the amount which would be payable if the taxable year ended with the Closing Date; and

(b) in the case of other Taxes, deemed to be the amount of such Taxes for the entire period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire period.

Exemptions, allowances, or deductions that are not covered under the rules of Section 461 of the Code shall be prorated on the basis of the number of days in the annual period elapsed through the Closing Date as compared to the number of days in the annual period elapsing after the Closing Date.

Section 6.05 Intended Tax Treatment. The Parties agree that it is their intention that the purchase of the Shares by Buyer from Seller pursuant to this agreement be treated as an exchange governed by Section 1001(c) of the Code and not be treated as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368 of the Code (the “Intended Tax Treatment”). Except as may be required upon a final determination by a Tax authority, the Parties agree that they shall prepare all applicable Tax filings in a manner consistent with the Intended Tax Treatment, and shall not take any action inconsistent with the Intended Tax Treatment.

Section 6.06 Contests.

(a) Buyer agrees to give written notice to Seller of the receipt of any written notice by the Company, Buyer or any of Buyer’s Affiliates which involves the assertion of any claim, or the commencement of any Action, in respect of which an indemnity may be sought by Buyer pursuant to this ARTICLE VI (a “Tax Claim”); provided, that failure to comply with this provision shall not affect Buyer’s right to indemnification hereunder except to the extent Seller was actually and materially prejudiced as a result thereof.

(b) Seller shall control the contest or resolution of any Tax Claim relating to a Pre-Closing Tax Period (other than any Pre-Closing Tax Period included in a Straddle Period); provided, however, that (i) Seller shall keep Buyer reasonably informed of the progress of any such Tax Claim, (ii) Buyer shall have the right to participate in the defense of any such Tax Claim at Buyer’s sole cost and expense, and (iii) solely with respect to a Tax Claim that would adversely affect Buyer in a Post-Closing Tax Period, Seller shall obtain the prior written consent of Buyer (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) before entering into any settlement of such Tax Claim or ceasing to defend such Tax Claim; provided however, that if Seller determines that such Tax Claim would not adversely affect Buyer in a Post-Closing Tax Period and therefore does not require Seller to obtain Buyer’s prior written consent pursuant to this clause (iii), Seller shall provide written confirmation to Buyer of Seller’s obligation pursuant to Section

6.03 to indemnify Buyer with respect to such Tax Claim within ten (10) days of entering into any settlement of such Tax Claim or ceasing to defend such Tax Claim. If Seller fails to, or does not elect to, timely exercise control over the conduct with respect to any such Tax Claim, Buyer shall have control over the conduct with respect to such Tax Claim; provided, however, that Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation, to participate in such defense with separate counsel of its choosing at its sole cost and expense. Buyer shall obtain the prior written consent of Seller (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) before entering into any settlement of such Tax Claim or ceasing to defend such Tax Claim.

(c) Buyer shall control the contest or resolution of any Tax Claim relating to a Straddle Period; provided, however, that (i) Buyer shall keep Seller reasonably informed of the progress of any such Tax Claim, (ii) Seller shall have the right to participate in the defense of any such Tax Claim at Seller’s sole cost and expense, and (iii) Buyer shall obtain the prior written consent of Seller (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) before entering into any settlement of such Tax Claim or ceasing to defend such Tax Claim.

Section 6.07 Cooperation and Exchange of Information. Seller and Buyer shall provide each other with such cooperation and information as either of them reasonably may request of the other that would be necessary or useful in filing any Tax Return pursuant to this ARTICLE VI or in connection with any audit or other proceeding in respect of Taxes of the Company. Such cooperation and information shall include providing copies of relevant Tax Returns or portions thereof, together with accompanying schedules, related work papers and documents relating to rulings or other determinations by tax authorities. Each of Seller and Buyer shall retain all Tax Returns, schedules and work papers, records and other documents in its possession relating to Tax matters of the ACFP Companies for any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until the expiration of the statute of limitations of the taxable periods to which such Tax Returns and other documents relate, without regard to extensions except to the extent notified by the other party in writing of such extensions for the respective Tax periods. Prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any Tax Returns, schedules and work papers, records and other documents in its possession relating to Tax matters of the ACFP Companies for any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date, Seller or Buyer (as the case may be) shall provide the other party with reasonable written notice and offer the other party the opportunity to take custody of such materials.

Section 6.08 Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments. Any indemnification payments pursuant to this ARTICLE VI shall be treated as an adjustment to the Total Consideration by the parties for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.

Section 6.09 Payments to Buyer. Any amounts payable to Buyer pursuant to this ARTICLE VI shall be satisfied in the manner described in Section 8.06; provided, however, that the aggregate amount of all amounts for which Seller shall be liable pursuant to this ARTICLE VI shall not exceed an amount equal to the BFI Consideration Share Amount.

Section 6.10 Buyer Tax Acts. Without the prior written consent of Seller (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), from and after the Closing, neither Buyer nor any ACFP Company shall (and they shall not permit any of the ACFP Companies’ Subsidiaries to) (each of the following, a “Buyer Tax Act”):

(a) make, change or rescind any Tax election, amend, file (with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period) or re-file or otherwise modify any Tax Return or take any position on any Tax Return for any Pre-Closing Tax Period that would have the effect of increasing the Tax liability of any ACFP Company in respect of any Pre-Closing Tax Period;

(b) file any ruling or request with any Governmental Authority that relates to Taxes or Tax Returns of any Pre-Closing Tax Period;

(d) surrender any Tax refund attributable to any Pre-Closing Tax Period;

(e) initiate any voluntary contact, or enter into a voluntary disclosure, with a Governmental Authority with respect to a Tax Return for a Pre-Closing Tax Period; or

(f) file a Tax Return for a Pre-Closing Tax Period in a jurisdiction in which the ACFP Company did not file such type of Tax Return prior to the Closing.

Section 6.11 Tax Refunds. To the extent any of the ACFP Companies receive any Tax refund or is otherwise given credit for any overpayment of Taxes (including as a result of installments or estimated Tax payments) paid prior to the Closing Date with respect to any taxable period (or portion thereof) ending on or before the Closing Date, such ACFP Company shall pay to Seller within five (5) Business Days of receiving such Tax refund from the relevant Governmental Authority or filing of a Tax Return claiming such credit against Taxes for overpayment, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to accounts designated by Seller to Buyer, the amount of such Tax refund or overpayment (net of reasonable costs and expenses) and any interest received thereon; provided that such Tax refund or credit for overpayment shall not include any Tax refunds to the extent they relate to an increase in Tax liability in a Post-Closing Tax Period, or are attributable to a Tax attribute arising in a Post-Closing Tax Period. In the event that any such amount paid to Seller pursuant to this Section 6.11 is subsequently denied, lost or reduced pursuant to any applicable Law or by a Governmental Authority, Seller shall pay such denied, lost or reduced amount, including the amount of any interest or penalties that the applicable ACFP Company shall owe to Governmental Authority in connection with such denial, loss or reduction, back to the such ACFP Company ten (10) Business Days of any such denial, loss or reduction.

Section 6.12 Survival. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the provisions of Section 3.21 and this ARTICLE VI shall survive for the full period of all applicable statutes of limitations (giving effect to any waiver, mitigation or extension thereof) plus sixty (60) days.

Section 6.13 Overlap. To the extent that any obligation or responsibility pursuant to ARTICLE VIII may overlap with an obligation or responsibility pursuant to this ARTICLE VI, the provisions of this ARTICLE VI shall govern.

(a) any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations or warranties of Buyer contained in this Agreement or in any certificate or transfer instrument delivered by or on behalf of Buyer pursuant to this Agreement, as of the date such representation or warranty was made or as if such representation or warranty was made on and as of the Closing Date (except for representations and warranties that expressly relate to a specified date, the inaccuracy in or breach of which will be determined with reference to such specified date); or

(b) any breach or non-fulfillment of any covenant, agreement or obligation to be performed by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement (other than ARTICLE VI, it being understood that the sole remedy for any such breach thereof shall be pursuant to ARTICLE VI).

Section 8.04 Certain Limitations. The indemnification provided for in Section 8.02 and Section 8.03 shall be subject to the following limitations:

(a) Seller shall not be liable to the Buyer Indemnitees for indemnification under Section 8.02(a) until the aggregate amount of all Losses in respect of indemnification under Section 8.02(a) exceeds $350,000 (the “Basket”), in which event Seller shall be required to pay or be liable for only those Losses in excess of the Basket, subject to the other limitations on indemnification set forth herein. The aggregate amount of all Losses for which Seller shall be liable pursuant to Section 8.02(a) shall not exceed $15,000,000.

(b) [Reserved].

(c) Buyer shall not be liable to the Seller Indemnitees for indemnification under Section 8.03(a) until the aggregate amount of all Losses in respect of indemnification under Section 8.03(a) exceeds the Basket, in which event Buyer shall be required to pay or be liable for all such Losses from the first dollar. The aggregate amount of all Losses for which Buyer shall be liable pursuant to Section 8.03(a) shall not exceed $5,000,000.

(d) Subject to Section 8.04(e), (i) the aggregate amount of all Losses for which Seller shall be liable pursuant to Section 8.02 shall not exceed an amount equal to the BFI Consideration Share Amount and (ii) the aggregate amount of all Losses for which Buyer shall be liable pursuant to Section 8.03 shall not exceed an amount equal to $15,000,000.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the limitations set forth in Section 8.04(a), Section 8.04(c) and Section 8.04(d) shall not apply to Losses based upon, arising out of, (i) with respect to or by reason of any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty in the Seller Fundamental Representations and the Buyer Fundamental Representations; or (ii) the Fraud of the indemnifying party.

(f) Solely for purposes of ARTICLE VI and this ARTICLE VIII, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in determining the amount of Losses suffered by the Seller Indemnitees or the Buyer Indemnitees related to (but not the existence of) a breach of any representation, warranty, agreement, or covenant in this Agreement, the representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement and any such applicable agreement or covenant contained in this Agreement shall be considered without regard to any “material,” “Material Adverse Effect,” or similar qualifications set forth therein.

(g) The amount of any Losses for which indemnification is provided for under this Agreement shall be: (i) reduced by (A) any amounts received by the Indemnified Party as a result of any indemnification, contribution or other payment by any third party; provided, however, for the avoidance of doubt, that, following the Closing, the Company shall not have any contribution obligations with respect to Seller’s indemnification obligations set forth herein, (B) any insurance proceeds or other amounts received by the Indemnified Party from third parties with respect to such Losses, and (C) any Tax benefit actually realized by the Indemnified Party from the incurrence or payment of any such Losses in the taxable year, or the four (4) subsequent taxable years, of the incurrence or payment of any such Losses; and (ii) increased by an amount equal to any Tax imposed on the receipt of such indemnity payment. Any such payment under this Section 8.04(g) shall be treated as an adjustment to the Total Consideration.

(h) No claim for indemnification may be made by a Buyer Indemnitee and no indemnification shall be required to the extent that (i) the Losses sustained or incurred by such member of the Buyer Indemnitees for which indemnification is sought were accrued or reflected on the Financial Statements, or (ii) such Losses are attributable to any action taken by Buyer or an Affiliate thereof after the Closing.

(i) If the Indemnifying Party makes any payment on any indemnifiable claim, the Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated, to the extent of such payment, to all rights and remedies of the Indemnified Party against any third party in respect of the Losses to which the payment related. The Parties will execute upon request all instruments reasonably necessary to evidence and perfect the above subrogation rights.

(j) Each Indemnified Party shall take, and cause its Affiliates to take, all commercially reasonable steps to mitigate any Loss upon becoming aware of any event or circumstance that would be reasonably expected to, or does, give rise thereto.

(k) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this ARTICLE VIII, no Indemnified Party shall be entitled to be indemnified under this ARTICLE VIII for any Losses to the extent such Losses were (i) recovered pursuant ARTICLE VI (Tax Matters) or (ii) recovered pursuant to Section 2.05 (Locked Box and Leakage).

Section 8.05 Indemnification Procedures. The party making a claim under this ARTICLE VIII is referred to as the “Indemnified Party”, and the party against whom such claims are asserted under this ARTICLE VIII is referred to as the “Indemnifying Party”.

(a) Third Party Claims. If any Indemnified Party receives notice of the assertion or commencement of any Action made or brought by any Third Party (a “Third Party Claim”) against such Indemnified Party with respect to which the Indemnifying Party is obligated to provide indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than thirty (30) calendar days after receipt of such notice of such Third Party Claim. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Third Party Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. 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, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in good faith in such defense; provided, that the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to defend or direct the defense of any such Third Party Claim where the primary remedy sought is seeking an injunction or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party. In the event that the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, subject to Section 8.05(b), it shall have the right to take such action as it deems necessary to avoid, dispute, defend, appeal or make counterclaims pertaining to any such Third Party Claim in the name and on behalf of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense of any Third Party Claim with counsel selected by it subject to the Indemnifying Party’s right to control the defense thereof. The fees and disbursements of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party; provided, that if in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Indemnified Party, there exists an actual and material conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party that cannot be waived, the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Party in each jurisdiction for which the Indemnified Party determines counsel is required. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to compromise or defend such Third Party Claim, fails to promptly notify the Indemnified Party in writing of its election to defend as provided in this Agreement, or fails to diligently prosecute the defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may, subject to Section 8.05(b), pay, compromise, defend such Third Party Claim and seek indemnification for any and all Losses based upon, arising from or relating to such Third Party Claim. Seller and Buyer shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any Third Party Claim, including making available (subject to the provisions of Section 5.06) 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 of the non-defending party as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of such Third Party Claim.

(b) 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, except as provided in this Section 8.05(b). If a firm offer is made to settle a Third Party Claim without leading to liability or the creation of a financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party for which indemnification would not be provided by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII and provides, in customary form, for the unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all liabilities and obligations in connection with such Third Party Claim and the Indemnifying Party desires to accept and agree to such offer, the Indemnifying Party may settle the Third Party Claim upon the terms set forth in such firm offer to settle such Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnified Party has assumed the defense pursuant to Section 8.05(a), it shall not agree to any settlement without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(c) Direct Claims. Any Action 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 reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than thirty (30) days after the Indemnified Party becomes aware of such Direct Claim. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Direct Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days after its receipt of such notice to respond in writing to such Direct Claim. The Indemnified Party shall allow the Indemnifying Party and its professional advisors 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 (including access to the Company’s premises and personnel and the right to examine and copy any accounts, documents or records) as the Indemnifying Party or any of its professional advisors may reasonably request. 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.

(d) Tax Claims. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the control of any claim, assertion, event or proceeding in respect of Taxes of the Company (including, but not limited to, any such claim in respect of a breach of the representations and warranties in Section 3.21 hereof or any breach or violation of or failure to fully perform any covenant, agreement, undertaking or obligation in ARTICLE VI) shall be governed exclusively by ARTICLE VI hereof.

Section 8.06 Payments; Indemnification Escrow Shares.

(a) Once a Loss is agreed to be paid by the Indemnifying Party or finally adjudicated to be payable pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII, the Indemnifying Party shall satisfy its obligations within fifteen (15) Business Days of such final, non-appealable adjudication solely as follows:

(i) with respect to a Direct Claim or Third Party Claim whereby Seller is the Indemnifying Party, (A) first, by the transfer to the Buyer Indemnitee of a number of shares of BFI Common Stock (valued at the volume-weighted average price per share for the thirty (30) trading day period ending on the trading day immediately prior to payment of such indemnification obligation) representing the amount of the Losses, and (B) second, if an amount of the Loss remains outstanding following the transfer of the BFI Common Stock as set forth in clause (A), by the transfer to the Buyer Indemnitee of a number of shares of BFI Series A Preferred Stock (valued at a per share amount based on the Series A Redemption Price); and

(ii) with respect to a Direct Claim or Third Party Claim whereby Buyer is the Indemnifying Party, by the issuance to the Seller Indemnitee of a number of additional shares of BFI Common Stock (valued at the volume-weighted average price per share for the thirty (30) trading day period ending on the trading day immediately prior to payment of such indemnification obligation) representing the amount of the Loss.

(b) Any Losses payable to a Buyer Indemnitee pursuant to Section 8.06(a)(i)(A) shall be satisfied solely as follows: (i) first, from the Indemnification Escrow Shares pursuant to joint written instructions executed by Buyer and Seller and delivered to the Escrow Agent; and (ii) second, to the extent the amount of Losses exceeds the value of the Indemnification Escrow Shares (valued at the volume-weighted average price per share for the thirty (30) trading day period ending on the trading day immediately prior to payment of such indemnification obligation), from Seller in accordance with Section 8.06(a)(i).

(c) All Indemnification Escrow Shares remaining in the Indemnification Escrow Fund for which no claim for indemnification is pending pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII shall be released to Seller pursuant to joint written instructions executed by Buyer and Seller and delivered to the Escrow Agent no later than five (5) Business Days following the twelve (12) month anniversary of the Closing Date.

(d) For the avoidance of doubt, except with respect to claims for Fraud, under no circumstances shall Seller or Buyer have any obligation to make any wire transfer of funds, or other cash payment, in connection with its indemnification obligations set forth in this ARTICLE VIII.

Section 8.07 Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments. All indemnification payments made under this Agreement shall be treated by the Parties as an adjustment to the Total Consideration for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.

Section 8.08 Effect of Investigation. Seller shall not be liable under this Agreement for any Losses based upon or arising out of any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations or warranties of Seller contained in this Agreement if, to Buyer’s Knowledge, Buyer or its Affiliates or Representatives had knowledge of such inaccuracy or breach prior to the Closing. Buyer shall not be liable under this Agreement for any Losses based upon or arising out of any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations or warranties of Buyer contained in this Agreement if, to Seller’s Knowledge, Seller or its Affiliates or Representatives had knowledge of such inaccuracy or breach prior to the Closing.

Section 8.09 Exclusive Remedies. Subject to Section 2.04, Section 2.05, Section 5.06 and Section 10.11, the Parties acknowledge and agree that their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims (other than claims arising from Fraud on the part of a Party 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 ARTICLE VI and this ARTICLE VIII. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted under 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 and their Affiliates and each of their respective Representatives arising under or based upon any Law, except pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in ARTICLE VI and this ARTICLE VIII. Nothing in this Section 8.09 shall limit any Person’s right to seek and obtain any equitable relief to which any Person shall be entitled, including with respect to Section 10.11, any right or remedy under any Transaction Document, or to seek any remedy on account of any party’s fraudulent or criminal misconduct. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, none of the Parties nor any of their respective Affiliates or equityholders shall have any rights or claims against any of the agents or lenders under the Credit Agreement or any of their respective Affiliates or equityholders (collectively, the “Financing Parties”) in connection with this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby. No Financing Party shall be subject to any special, consequential, punitive or indirect damages or at law or in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise.

The Parties agree not to assert that a remedy of specific performance or other equitable relief is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to law or inequitable for any reason, and agree not to assert that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy or that the Parties otherwise have an adequate remedy at Law. The Parties acknowledge and agree that any non-breaching Party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and/or to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in accordance with this Section 10.11 shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction.

Section 10.12 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall be deemed to be one and the same agreement. A signed copy of this Agreement delivered by e-mail or other means of electronic transmission shall be deemed to have the same legal effect as delivery of an original signed copy of this Agreement.

Section 10.13 Disclosure Schedules.

(a) Matters reflected in the Disclosure Schedules that are disclosed in one section shall be deemed to be disclosed on any section to the extent that it is reasonably apparent from the face of such disclosure that such disclosure is applicable to such other section or sections without the necessity of a cross-reference. Nothing in the Disclosure Schedules will be deemed or will constitute an admission of any Liability of any Party to any third party, nor an admission to any third party against the interests of any or all of the Parties. Headings have been inserted within the Disclosure Schedules for convenience of reference only and will not change the express description of corresponding sections of this Agreement. The numbering of the Disclosure Schedules reflects the corresponding numbering in this Agreement. It is specifically acknowledged that the Disclosure Schedules may expressly provide exceptions to a particular section of ARTICLE III or ARTICLE IV notwithstanding that the section does not state “except as set forth in Section ‘__’ of the Disclosure Schedules” or words of similar effect.

(b) Neither the specification of any dollar amount in any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement nor the inclusion of any specific item in the Disclosure Schedules is intended to vary the definition of “ACFP Material Adverse Effect” or “Buyer Material Adverse Effect” or to imply that such amount, or higher or lower amounts, or the item so included or other items, are or are not material, and no Party shall use the fact of the setting forth of any such amount or the inclusion of any such item in any dispute or controversy between or among the Parties as to whether any obligation, item or matter not described herein or included in the Disclosure Schedules is or is not material for purposes of this Agreement. Unless this Agreement specifically provides otherwise, neither the specification of any item or matter in any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement nor the inclusion of any specific item in the Disclosure Schedules is intended to imply that such item or matter, or other items or matters, are or are not in the ordinary course of business, and no Party shall use the fact of the setting forth or the inclusion of any such item or matter in any dispute or controversy between or among the Parties as to whether any obligation, item or matter not described herein or included in the Disclosure Schedules is or is not in the ordinary course of business for purposes of this Agreement.

(c) Certain matters set forth in the Disclosure Schedules are included for informational purposes only notwithstanding that, because they do not rise above applicable materiality thresholds or otherwise, they may not be required by the terms of this Agreement to be set forth herein. All attachments to the Disclosure Schedules are incorporated by reference into the section of the Disclosure Schedules in which they are referenced.

Section 10.14 No Recourse. Other than claims for Fraud, this Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claim, action, suit or other Action based upon, arising out of, or related to this Agreement or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement, may only be brought against the Persons that are expressly named as Parties and then only with respect to the specific obligations set forth herein with respect to such Party. Other than claims for Fraud, no past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, manager, member, partner, equityholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney or other Representative (collectively, the “Non-Party Affiliates”) of any Party or of any Affiliate of any Party, or any of their successors or permitted assigns, shall have any liability (whether in contract or in tort, in law or in equity, or granted by statute) for any claims, causes of action, obligations or liabilities of any Party arising out of, in connection with, under or related to in any manner this Agreement or by reason of this Agreement or its negotiation, execution, performance or breach. The Parties expressly agree that the Non-Party Affiliates to whom this Section 10.14 applies shall be third-party beneficiaries of this Section 10.14 each of whom may enforce the provisions of this Section 10.14.

Section 10.15 Representation by Proskauer. Recognizing that Proskauer Rose LLP (“Proskauer”) has acted as legal counsel to Seller and the ACFP Companies and their Affiliates prior to the Closing, and Proskauer may act as legal counsel to Seller and its Affiliates after the Closing, Buyer hereby waives, on its own behalf and agrees to cause its Affiliates (including, after the Closing, the Company and the other ACFP Companies) to waive, any conflicts that may arise in connection with Proskauer representing Seller or its Affiliates after the Closing in any matter relating to the transactions contemplated hereby or in the Transaction Documents or any disagreement or dispute relating thereto. In addition, all attorney-client privilege attaching to any

communications between any ACFP Company or Affiliate prior to the Closing, on the one hand, and Proskauer, on the other hand, occurring prior to the Closing in the course of the negotiation, documentation and consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Transaction Communications”) will belong solely to Seller (and not to any ACFP Company). For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties acknowledge and agree that the Transaction Communications do not include communications between the ACFP Companies, on the one hand, and Proskauer, on the other hand, relating to the general business matters of the ACFP Companies not related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, upon and after the Closing, (x) Proskauer shall be permitted to represent Seller or any of its Affiliates in connection with any matter whatsoever, including any negotiation, transaction or dispute (“dispute” includes litigation, arbitration, mediation, negotiation or other adversary proceeding) with Buyer, an ACFP Company or any of their respective agents or Affiliates under or relating to this Agreement or any Transaction Document, any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, and any related matter (such as claims for indemnification and disputes involving noncompetition or other agreements entered into in connection with this Agreement), and (y) (i) Seller (and not the applicable ACFP Company) will be the sole holders of the attorney-client privilege with respect to the Transaction Communications, (ii) to the extent that files of Proskauer in respect of Proskauer’s engagement by Seller or any ACFP Company in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby constitute property of the client, only Seller and not the applicable ACFP Company will hold such property rights, and (iii) Proskauer will have no duty whatsoever to reveal or disclose, and the ACFP Companies will not have any access to, Transaction Communications or files in respect of Proskauer’s engagement by any ACFP Company in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby by reason of any attorney-client relationship between Proskauer and an ACFP Company or otherwise.

Section 10.16 Disclaimer.

(a) Except for the representations and warranties expressly set forth in ARTICLE III (as modified by the Disclosure Schedules) or in any Transaction Document, none of Seller, the ACFP Companies or any other Person has made, makes or shall be deemed to make any other representation or warranty of any kind whatsoever, express or implied, written or oral, at law or in equity, on behalf of Seller or the ACFP Companies or any of their respective Affiliates, including any representation or warranty regarding any ACFP Company, Seller, any Liabilities of any ACFP Company or Seller, the ACFP Business, the transactions contemplated hereby, any other rights or obligations to be transferred pursuant to this Agreement and the Transaction Documents or any other matter, and the ACFP Companies and Seller hereby disclaim all other representations and warranties of any kind whatsoever, express or implied, written or oral, at law or in equity, whether made by or on behalf of Seller, any ACFP Company or any other Person.

Without limiting the foregoing, none of Seller or the ACFP Companies makes any representation or warranty of any kind whatsoever, express or implied, written or oral, at law or in equity, to Buyer or any of its Affiliates or any Representatives of Buyer or any of its Affiliates regarding the future success, profitability or value of the ACFP Companies or the ACFP Business.

Except for the representations and warranties expressly set forth in ARTICLE IV (in each case, as qualified by the Disclosure Schedules) or in any Transaction Document, Buyer and the BFI Companies hereby disclaim all Liability and responsibility for all projections, forecasts, estimates, financial statements, financial information, appraisals, statements, promises, advice, data or information made, communicated or furnished (orally or in writing, including electronically) to Seller or any of its Affiliates or any Representatives of Seller or any of Seller’s Affiliates, including omissions therefrom. Without limiting the foregoing, none of Buyer or the BFI Companies makes any representation or warranty of any kind whatsoever, express or implied, written or oral, at law or in equity, to Seller or any of its Affiliates or any Representatives of Seller or any of its Affiliates regarding the success, profitability or value of the BFI Companies or the BFI Business.
