The Shareholders’ Representative may require that each Shareholder pay his, her or its Proportionate Interest of the Purchase Price Decrease to the Shareholders’ Representative or the Shareholders’ Representative may take such amount from the Shareholders’ Escrow.

The Shares which are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and which are held by Shareholders who have not voted such shares in favor of the Merger, who shall have delivered a written demand expressing a desire to assert dissenters’ rights for such Shares in the manner provided in Article 13 of the ABCA (the “Alabama Dissenters’ Law”) and who, as of the Effective Time, shall not effectively have withdrawn or lost the right to assert dissenters’ rights (“Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into or represent a right to receive their Proportionate Interest of the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 1.11 hereof, but the holders thereof shall be entitled only to such rights as are granted by the Alabama Dissenters’ Law as to dissenters. Each holder of Dissenting Shares who becomes entitled to payment for such Shares pursuant to the Alabama Dissenters’ Law shall receive payment therefor from Ducommun in accordance with the Alabama Dissenters’ Law; provided, that (i) if any such holder of Dissenting Shares shall fail to establish his or her entitlement to dissenters’ rights as provided in the Alabama Dissenters Law, or (ii) if any such holder of Dissenting Shares effectively shall withdraw his or her demand for dissenters’ rights of such Shares or loses his or her right to dissenters’ rights and payment of his, her or its Shares under the Alabama Dissenters’ Law, such holder shall forfeit the right to appraisal of such Shares and each such Share thereupon shall be deemed to have converted, as of the Effective Time, into and represent the right to receive payment of his or her Proportionate Interest of the Purchase Price, without interest thereon.

The taking of any action described in clauses (a) through (d) above by any Miltec Representative shall be deemed a material breach by Miltec of this Agreement. Miltec shall immediately cease

From the date of this Agreement until (a) the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Closing Date, Don Miller, current shareholder and President of Miltec, and (b) the second (2nd) anniversary of the Closing Date, the other Principal Shareholders, shall not, directly or indirectly, except on behalf of Ducommun, the Successor Corporation or any of their Affiliates or successors:

(vi) disparage, libel, slander or defame Ducommun, the Successor Corporation or any of their Affiliates or successors, or the Business, or any of their respective successors, either publicly or privately.

transferred from Ducommun to each of the Shareholders (by virtue of their respective equity ownership interest in Miltec) in exchange for such covenants.

None of the rights to indemnification provided by this Section 6.1 shall be limited, mitigated or diminished by virtue of Buyer or Ducommun having conducted, or having had the right to conduct, a due diligence investigation, or by any information actually or purportedly received or made available to Buyer or Ducommun.

Section 6.2 Indemnification by Buyer and Ducommun. Buyer and Ducommun shall indemnify and hold harmless the Shareholders in respect of any and all claims, losses, damages, liabilities, declines in value, penalties, interest, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, any attorneys’, accountants’ and consultants’ fees and other expenses, including, subject to Section 6.4 hereof, any such expenses incurred in connection with investigating, defending against or settling any such claims) reasonably incurred by the Shareholders, in connection with, or resulting from, each and all of the following:

(a) Any breach (or any allegation by a third party that, if true, would constitute a breach) of any representation or warranty made by Buyer or Ducommun in this Agreement or pursuant hereto or in any document or instrument delivered to the Shareholders or Miltec;

(b) Any misrepresentation contained in any written statement or certificate furnished by Ducommun or Buyer pursuant to this Agreement or in connection with the Transactions;

Section 6.3 Claims for Indemnification. Whenever any claim shall arise for indemnification hereunder, the party entitled to indemnification (the “indemnified party”) shall promptly notify the party obligated to provide indemnification (the “indemnifying party”) of the claim and, when known, the facts constituting the basis for such claim; provided, however, that the failure to so notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligation hereunder to the extent such failure does not materially prejudice the indemnifying party. In the event of any claim for indemnification hereunder resulting from or in connection with any claim or legal proceedings by a third party, the notice to the indemnifying party shall specify, if known, the amount or an estimate of the amount of the Liability arising therefrom.

Section 6.4 Defense of Claims. In connection with any claim giving rise to indemnity hereunder resulting from or arising out of any claim or legal proceeding by a person who is not a party to this Agreement, the indemnifying party at its sole cost and expense and with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party may, upon written notice to the indemnified party, assume the defense of any such claim or legal proceeding if (a) the indemnifying party acknowledges to the indemnified party in writing, within fifteen (15) days after receipt of notice from the indemnified party, its obligations to indemnify the indemnified party with respect to all elements of such claim, (b) the indemnifying party provides the indemnified party with evidence

reasonably acceptable to the indemnified party that the indemnifying party will have the financial resources to defend against such third-party claim and fulfill its indemnification obligations hereunder, (c) the third-party claim involves only money damages and does not seek an injunction or other equitable relief and (d) settlement or an adverse judgment of the third-party claim is not, in the good faith judgment of the indemnified party, likely to establish a pattern or practice adverse to the continuing business interests of the indemnified party. The indemnified party shall be entitled to participate in (but not control) the defense of any such action, with its counsel and at its own expense; provided, however, that if there are one or more legal defenses available to the indemnified party that conflict with those available to the indemnifying party, or if the indemnifying party fails to take reasonable steps necessary to defend diligently the claim after receiving notice from the indemnified party that it believes the indemnifying party has failed to do so, the indemnified party may assume the defense of such claim; provided, further, that the indemnified party may not settle such claim without the prior written consent of the indemnifying party, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld. If the indemnified party assumes the defense of the claim, the indemnifying party shall reimburse the indemnified party on a monthly basis for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel retained by the indemnified party and the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in (but not control) the defense of such claim, with its counsel and at its own expense. If the indemnifying party thereafter seeks to question the manner in which the indemnified party defended such third party claim or the amount or nature of any such settlement, the indemnifying party shall have the burden to prove by a preponderance of the evidence that the indemnified party did not defend or settle such third party claim in a reasonably prudent manner. The parties agree to render, without compensation, to each other such assistance as they may reasonably require of each other in order to insure the proper and adequate defense of any action, suit or proceeding, whether or not subject to indemnification hereunder.

Section 6.5 Interest. Any amount of money owed by an indemnifying party to an indemnified party hereunder shall be paid with interest, at an annual rate equal to the Prime Rate then in effect as quoted in The Wall Street Journal or its successor publication, from the date that the loss or damage was sustained or cash disbursement made by the indemnified party until such amount is paid by the indemnifying party.

(a) Subject to this Section 6.6, all indemnification payments hereunder shall be effected by payment of cash or delivery of a certified or official bank check in the amount of the indemnification liability within 30 days after written demand therefor.

(b) All amounts, if any, owed by the Principal Shareholders under Sections 1.12 or 6.1 are may be used to offset amounts owed by Ducommun under either or both of the Promissory Note (with such offset amount being applied first to the outstanding interest, second to the next payment due of the outstanding principal of the Promissory Note and third to any remaining amounts of outstanding principal of the Promissory Note) or the Earnout Payments, at Ducommun’s sole and absolute election. For clarity, any amounts for which any Buyer Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification hereunder may be offset against all amounts due under the Promissory

Note or the Earnout Payments, whether payable to Principal Shareholders or other Shareholders.

(c) Ducommun will promptly notify the Principal Shareholders and the Shareholders’ Representative in the event any right of offset is claimed by Ducommun hereunder. In the event that any such claims against the Promissory Note or the Earnout Payments are disputed by the Shareholders’ Representative within 30 days of such notice, Ducommun will withhold payments due under the Promissory Note or the Earnout Payments, in an amount not to exceed the offset claimed by Ducommun, until final resolution of such dispute pursuant to Section 10.12.

(d) In the event that Ducommun offsets any such amounts against the Promissory Note and the offset reduces the principal amount due under the Promissory Note, the Principal Shareholders by and through the Shareholders’ Representative shall return the Promissory Note to Ducommun within 45 days of the Principal Shareholders’ and Shareholders’ Representative’s receipt of the notice referenced in Section 6.6(c), and Ducommun shall promptly re-issue a new promissory note, reducing the principal amount thereof by the amount of the offset but otherwise reflecting the existing terms of the Promissory Note.

(a) No claim, demand, suit or cause of action shall be brought against an indemnifying party by an indemnified party under Sections 6.1(a) and 6.1(b) or Sections 6.2(a) and 6.2(b) unless and until the aggregate amount of claims by such indemnified party exceeds Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000), in which case the indemnified party shall be entitled to indemnification from the indemnifying party only with respect to claims in excess of such amount.

(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the aggregate liability of (i) Ducommun and Buyer for indemnity payments under Section 6.2, shall in no event exceed two-thirds (2/3) of the Purchase Price and (ii) each of the Principal Shareholders for indemnity payments under Section 6.1 shall in no event exceed two-thirds (2/3) of the dollar amount of the Purchase Price such Principal Shareholder actually received.

(c) No claim for indemnification shall be made by Ducommun pursuant to Sections 6.1(a) or 6.1(b) or by the Shareholders pursuant to Sections 6.2(a) or 6.2(b) if initially made more than eighteen (18) months after the Closing Date, provided, however, that claims for breaches of the representations and warranties of Miltec and the Principal Shareholders made in Sections 2.4, 2.5(a), 2.11, 2.13, 2.15, 2.16 and 2.18 may be asserted until the expiration of the applicable statutes of limitations. No claim for indemnification shall be made by Buyer or Ducommun pursuant to Sections 6.1(c), 6.1(d), 6.1(e), 6.1(f) or 6.1(g) or by the Shareholders pursuant to Section 6.2(c) or 6.2(d) if initially made after the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations.

(d) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6.7 to the effect that claims for indemnification under a section or subsection of this Agreement must be asserted prior to the expiration of specified periods, claims for indemnification shall survive the expiration of such periods (i) if such claims are submitted in writing to the indemnifying party prior to the expiration of the applicable periods and identified as claims for indemnification pursuant to this Agreement and (ii) as to any matter that is based upon fraud or willful misconduct by the indemnifying party, until such time as such claims and matters are resolved.

(e) None of the limitations contained in this Article VI shall apply to any obligation of any indemnifying party as to any matter that is based upon the fraud or willful misconduct of the indemnifying party.

(a) Effective upon the execution of this Agreement, Don Miller is hereby appointed as the agent and attorney-in-fact (the “Shareholders’ Representative”) for each Shareholder. The Shareholders’ Representative shall be authorized, for and on behalf of all the Shareholders, to give and receive notices and communications, to agree to, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, and demand arbitration and comply with orders of courts and awards of arbitrators with respect to claims for indemnification under this Agreement, to authorize payment to or from the claims of Ducommun with regard to the Purchase Price Adjustment and/or any claims for indemnification under this Agreement, including but not limited to the authorization to reduce the amount due under the Promissory Note, and to take all actions necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Shareholders’ Representative to accomplish the foregoing. No bond shall be required of the Shareholders’ Representative, and the Shareholders’ Representative shall not receive compensation for his services. All of the expenses of the Shareholders’ Representative shall be borne by the Shareholders on a pro rata basis. Notices or communications to or from the Shareholders’ Representative shall constitute notice to or from each of the Shareholders. The Shareholders’ Representative may be changed to another Principal Shareholder by the vote of a majority of the members of the Board of Directors of Miltec as of the day prior to the Closing Date whereupon the new Shareholders’ Representative shall give at least ten (10) days prior notice to Ducommun of his or her becoming the new Shareholders’ Representative and the removal of the old Shareholders’ Representative.

(b) The Shareholders’ Representative shall not be liable for any act done or omitted hereunder in its capacity as the Shareholders’ Representative while acting in good faith and in the exercise of reasonable judgment or upon the advice of legal counsel. The Shareholders shall jointly and severally indemnify the Shareholders’ Representative and hold the Shareholders’ Representative harmless against any losses incurred by the Shareholders’ Representative (including reasonable fees and expenses of any legal counsel retained by the Shareholders’ Representative) arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the Shareholders’ Representative’s duties hereunder unless such losses directly result from the gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of the Shareholders’ Representative.

(c) Any decision, act, consent or instruction of the Shareholders’ Representative shall constitute a decision of all Shareholders, and shall be final, binding and conclusive upon each of such Shareholder, and Ducommun may rely upon any such decision, act, consent or instruction of the Shareholders’ Representative as being the decision, act, consent or instruction of each and every such Shareholder. Ducommun is hereby relieved from any Liability to any person for any acts done by it in accordance with such decision, act, consent or instruction of the Shareholders’ Representative.

Section 7.1 Termination. This Agreement and the Transactions contemplated herein may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing by Miltec, on the one hand, or Ducommun or Buyer, on the other, as the case may be, providing written notice or termination to the other party:

For purposes hereof, “confidential” shall mean any documents or information which is not generally known to the public or within Miltec’s industry.
