Nothing contained in this Section 9.7 shall require any party to (a) expend an unreasonable amount of time or effort; (b) incur any unreasonable amounts of costs or expenses; or (c) make any claim or file any action, suit or proceeding.

9.8 Confidentiality.

The parties acknowledge that prior to the Closing, the confidentiality restrictions and obligations set forth in that certain Non-Disclosure Letter Agreement dated September 12, 2011 by and between TriMas Corporation and the Company governed and applied to the negotiation of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby. Upon and after the Closing, each Seller Group Member agrees not to disclose or use at any time (and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries and Affiliates not to use or disclose at any time) any Confidential Information except to the extent necessary to perform his or her duties as an employee of the

55

Company. Upon and after the Closing, each Seller Group Member further agrees to take all reasonable steps (and to cause each of his Affiliates to take all reasonable steps) to safeguard such Confidential Information and to protect it against disclosure, misuse, espionage, loss and theft. Upon and after the Closing, in the event any Seller Group Member or any of its Affiliates are required by Law to disclose any Confidential Information, such Seller Group Member shall promptly notify Buyer in writing, which notification shall include the nature of the legal requirement and the extent of the required disclosure, and such Seller Group Member and its Affiliates shall cooperate with Buyer and the Transferred Companies to preserve the confidentiality of such information consistent with applicable Law; provided that Buyer or the Transferred Companies shall be responsible for any out-of-pocket costs incurred by such Seller Group Member and its Affiliates in connection with any such cooperation.

9.9 Tax Matters.

(a) Tax Indemnification. The Seller Group Members, jointly and severally, shall indemnify the Buyer Parties and hold them harmless from and against any Losses attributable to (i) notwithstanding the disclosure or reference to such Taxes in the Tax Matters List, all Taxes (or the non-payment thereof) of or attributable to Seller or the Transferred Companies (or any predecessor including, without limitation, Oldco) for all taxable periods ending on or before the Closing Date and the portion through the end of the Closing Date for any taxable period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date (each such taxable period, a “Pre-Closing Tax Period”), (ii) any and all Taxes of any member of a Relevant Group of which Seller or any Transferred Company (or any predecessor) is or was a member on or prior to the Closing Date, including pursuant to Treasury Regulations §1.1502-6 or any analogous or similar state, local, or foreign Law or regulation, (iii) any and all Taxes of any Person (other than the Transferred Companies) imposed on any of the Transferred Companies as a transferee or successor, by contract or pursuant to any Law, rule or regulation, which Taxes relate to an event or transaction occurring before the Closing and (iv) any and all Taxes with respect to amounts includable in gross income under Code §951(a) or Code §956 by any United States shareholder (as defined in Code §951(b)) in respect of any Transferred Company (or any predecessor) that is or owns a CFC for the taxable year of such CFC that includes the Closing Date, determined as if such taxable year ended on the Closing Date; provided, however, that in the case of clauses (i), (ii), and (iii) above, Seller Group Members shall be liable only to the extent that such Taxes exceed any amount which is expressly taken into account in determining Closing Net Working Capital and which thus reduces the Final Purchase Price pursuant to Section 2.4, and, provided further, that the Company shall pay, and not be indemnified for California Taxes of up to $12,800 pursuant to the final sentence of this Section 9.9(a). Member Representative, on behalf of Seller Group Members, shall reimburse Buyer for any Taxes of the Transferred Companies that are the responsibility of Seller Group Members pursuant to this Section 9.9(a) no later than five (5) Business Days before payment of such Taxes by any Buyer Party is due. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the minimum tax imposed on the Company by California Revenue & Taxation Code §17941 (not to exceed $800.00), and the limited liability company fee imposed on the Company by California Revenue & Taxation Code §17942 (not to exceed $11,790.00), in each case for its first taxable period as a limited liability company beginning in 2012, shall not be treated as Taxes described in clause (i) of the first sentence of this Section 9.9(a) or as accrued liabilities of the Company as of the Closing but shall be treated as Taxes incurred after the Closing Date and shall be paid by the Company after the Closing Date and on or before their respective due dates,

56

(b) Tax Periods Ending on or Before the Closing Date.

(i) Seller shall prepare or cause to be prepared, and file or cause to be filed, all income and California franchise Tax Returns for the Transferred Companies for all periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date which are due after the Closing Date, including the Company’s federal and all applicable state and local partnership and limited liability company income Tax Returns for the period beginning on the date of Newco’s contribution of cash to the Company in exchange for one percent (1%) of the Membership Interests and ending on the Closing Date (the “Initial Tax Returns”). Subject to the other provisions of this Section 9.9, on the Initial Tax Returns, the Company shall adopt such accounting methods and make such elections that Seller determines are necessary or advisable, consistent with past practice of Oldco unless otherwise required by Law; provided, however, that in the absence of any such past practice (one way or another), no such differing method or election shall be adopted or made, without the prior written consent of Buyer, if the effect of such method or election would be to increase the federal income or state or local income or franchise Taxes that would be imposed on the Company or its members for any period beginning after the Closing Date, except to the extent provided in this Agreement or otherwise required by applicable Law, and provided, further, that the Company shall not make any election pursuant to Treasury Regulations §301.7701-3. Seller shall permit Buyer to review and comment on each such Tax Return prior to filing, and shall consider Buyer’s comments in good faith. Seller Group Members shall reimburse the applicable Transferred Companies for Taxes of the Transferred Companies with respect to such periods no later than five (5) Business Days before the date such Taxes are due. For the avoidance of doubt, however, all income and franchise Taxes of Oldco/Seller for all periods shall be paid to the taxing authorities directly by Seller rather than paid to the taxing authorities by, and reimbursed to, the Transferred Companies. Buyer shall prepare all other Tax Returns of the Company which are due after the Closing Date, and may make such permissible elections , and adopt such permissible accounting methods on such Tax Returns as Buyer deems advisable or appropriate in Buyer’s sole discretion, subject only to any applicable limitations imposed by the Operating Agreement.

(ii) The parties acknowledge that, by reason of Buyer’s purchase of the Transferred Membership Interests, the Company shall terminate as a partnership for federal income Tax purposes under Code §708(b)(1)(B), and the Company’s taxable year shall close, on the Closing Date and the Company shall constitute a new partnership for such purposes, with a new taxable year commencing, on the day after the Closing Date. On its federal income Tax Return for the taxable year ending on the Closing Date, the Company shall make an election under Code §§743 and 754 with respect to Buyer’s purchase of the Transferred Membership Interests. In making the adjustments resulting from such election, the fair market value of 100% of the Membership Interests, as hereinafter defined (the “Enterprise Value”), any applicable Liabilities of the Company and any other relevant items shall be allocated among the assets of the Company by reference to a balance sheet of the Company setting out the gross fair market value of each of the assets (the aggregate gross fair market value of all of the assets, the “Gross Fair Market Value”) and the amount of each of the Liabilities of the Company on the Closing Date (the “Fair Market Value Balance Sheet”), which the parties shall prepare within 90 days

57

after the Closing Date. In connection therewith, the parties acknowledge and agree that the Enterprise Value is and shall be equal to the purchase price of the Transferred Membership Interests for federal income Tax purposes (the “Tax Purchase Price”), adjusted by substituting for the cash component thereof (Fifty-Nine Million Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($59,200,000.00)) 10/7 of the amount of such cash component (Eighty-Four Million Five Hundred Seventy-One Thousand Four Hundred Twenty-Eight and 57/100 Dollars ($84,571,428.57)) in order to arrive at an economically equivalent purchase price for federal income Tax purposes for 100% of the Membership Interests. The parties further acknowledge and agree that the Tax Purchase Price is and shall be equal to (A) Fifty-Nine Million Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($59,200,000.00), (B) increased or decreased, as appropriate, by the final amounts referenced in Sections 2.4(a)(i), 2.4(a)(iii), 2.4(a)(iv) and 2.4(a)(v), (C) increased by any payment by Buyer to Seller pursuant to Article 10 and decreased by any payment by Seller to Buyer pursuant to Article 10, plus (D) all special transaction Taxes and related costs reimbursed by Buyer to Seller (net of any refunds thereof by Seller to Buyer) from time to time pursuant to Section 9.12, minus (E) any amount of the Tax Purchase Price (determined without regard to this clause (E)) that is properly treated as interest for federal income Tax purposes. The parties further agree that the Fair Market Value Balance Sheet shall reflect the allocation of an amount of the Gross Fair Market Value equal to, (1) for the Company’s accounts receivable, the book value thereof, net of the allowance for doubtful accounts, immediately prior to the Effective Time and on the Closing Date, determined in accordance with GAAP without regard to the sale of the Transferred Membership Interests, (2) for the Company’s raw materials inventories and fixed assets, the Company’s adjusted basis for federal income Tax purposes for its assets in each such category immediately prior to the Effective Time and on the Closing Date, (3) for the Company’s work in process inventories, the Company’s adjusted basis for federal income Tax purposes for its assets in such category immediately prior to the Effective Time and on the Closing Date, and (4) for the Company’s finished goods inventories, the Company’s adjusted basis for federal income Tax purposes for its assets in such category immediately prior to the Effective Time and on the Closing Date; provided, however, that each such allocation shall be adjusted as and to the extent necessary to conform such allocation (and the overall allocation of the Gross Fair Market Value) to the requirements of GAAP. For purposes of this Section 9.9(b)(ii), the Company’s adjusted basis of any asset for federal income Tax purposes shall be determined as of the Closing Date but without regard to the sale of the Transferred Membership Interests. The parties further agree that the Fair Market Value Balance Sheet shall allocate to the Company’s goodwill the excess of the Gross Fair Market Value over the aggregate amount allocated to all of the Company’s other assets in accordance with the residual method of Code §1060. The parties acknowledge and agree that the Tax Purchase Price will change from time to time after the Closing Date, and with each such change the foregoing allocations shall be adjusted in accordance with the last sentence of clause (iii) of this Section 9.9(b). In the event the parties cannot agree on the Fair Market Value Balance Sheet, they shall submit their dispute to the Accounting Firm, which shall resolve such dispute as promptly as possible in accordance with this Section 9.9(b)(ii), and whose determination(s) shall be binding on the parties absent manifest error.

(iii) The parties shall report the Tax consequences of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in a manner consistent with the Fair Market Value Balance Sheet, adjusted to reflect all changes in the Tax Purchase Price to date, and shall not take any action or position inconsistent therewith except to the extent required by applicable law pursuant

58

to a “determination” within the meaning of Code §1313(a). Buyer shall cause to be prepared with respect to the Company, and shall deliver to the Company, with a copy to Seller, the notice described in Treasury Regulations §1.743-1(k)(2) (“Buyer’s Statement”). Seller shall cause to be prepared with respect to the Company, and shall submit with the Company’s federal income Tax Return for the taxable year in which the Closing occurs, the statement of adjustment described in Treasury Regulations §1.743-1(k)(1) (the “Company’s Statement”). Prior to filing (and at least 45 days prior to the extended due date of) such federal income Tax Return, Seller shall provide a draft thereof, including the draft Company’s Statement, to Buyer, which within 15 Business Days after receipt thereof shall notify Seller of any changes that it wants Seller to make before filing such Tax Return, including any specified changes to the Section 754 election, in which event Seller shall consider in good faith Buyer’s request and comments. Seller shall cause to be prepared with respect to the Company, and shall submit with Seller’s federal income Tax Return for the taxable year in which the Closing occurs, the statement described in Treasury Regulations §1.751-1(a)(3) (“Seller’s Statement”). In each case, the foregoing statements shall be prepared in a manner that is consistent with the Fair Market Value Balance Sheet, taking into account any adjustments to the Tax Purchase Price pursuant to the last sentence of this Section 9.9(b)(iii). Seller shall deliver a copy of the Company’s Statement to Buyer promptly after the filing thereof with the Company’s federal income Tax Return, and Seller shall deliver a copy of Seller’s Statement to Buyer promptly after the filing thereof with Seller’s federal income Tax Return. Any adjustment to the Tax Purchase Price pursuant to any provision of this Agreement, which relates to any particular asset(s) of the Company shall be allocated to such asset(s) and, otherwise, to goodwill in accordance with the residual method of Code §1060.

(iv) For the avoidance of doubt, the parties acknowledge that (A) the first step in the Restructuring is intended to constitute a reorganization under the provisions of Section 368(a)(1)(F) of the Code for federal income and all applicable state and local income and franchise Tax purposes, as a consequence of which Seller is expected to be treated as a continuation of Oldco for federal income and all applicable state and local income and franchise Tax purposes, and (B) one Tax Return shall be prepared and filed, by Seller with respect to federal income Taxes and with respect to each applicable state or local income or franchise Taxes, for the taxable year of Oldco / Seller beginning on January 1, 2012 and ending on December 31, 2012.

(c) Tax Periods Beginning Before and Ending After the Closing Date. In the case of any taxable period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date (a “Straddle Period”), Buyer shall prepare or cause to be prepared, and file or cause to be filed, any Tax Returns of the Transferred Companies for such Tax periods (“Straddle Tax Returns”). Buyer shall permit the Member Representative to review and comment on each such Straddle Tax Return prior to filing. The LLC Members shall pay to Buyer any Taxes relating to a Pre-Closing Tax Period due with any Straddle Tax Returns no later than five (5) Business Days before the date Buyer is required to cause to be paid the related Tax liability.

(d) Calculation of Taxes. The amount of Tax relating to a Pre-Closing Tax Period which is part of (included in) a Straddle Period, including for purposes of calculating income includable under Code §951(a), shall be calculated as though the taxable year of each of the Transferred Companies terminated as of the close of business on the Closing Date; provided, however, that in the case of a Tax not based on income, receipts, proceeds, profits or similar

59

items, the amount of Tax relating to a Pre -Closing Tax Period shall be equal to the amount of such Tax for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of days from the beginning of the Straddle Period through the Closing Date and the denominator of which shall be the number of days in the entire Straddle Period.

(e) Certain Taxes. Any California sales and use Taxes, on tangible personal property (other than inventory) incurred in connection with the Restructuring or the sale of the Transferred Membership Interests shall be paid by Buyer when due or, upon request by Seller if Seller is required by applicable Law to pay such Taxes to the California State Board of Equalization, shall be reimbursed by Buyer to Seller no later than five (5) Business Days before the date such Taxes are due, provided that Seller cooperates with Buyer in claiming and/or establishing any and all available exemptions from such Taxes. The parties expect that no such Taxes are or will be applicable, and shall file no Tax Returns, and take no position, inconsistent with such expectation unless required to do so by a final determination by the California State Board of Equalization. All other transfer, documentary, sales, use and stamp Taxes incurred as a result of the sale of any portion of the LLC Members’ Membership Interests in the Company to Buyer (whether at the Closing or upon exercise of the put or call for which Section 9.1 provides) shall be borne 50% by Buyer and 50% by Seller.

(f) Cooperation on Tax Matters.

(i) The Seller Group Members, the Transferred Companies and Buyer shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns in accordance with this Section 9.9(f) and any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation shall include signing any Tax Return, amended Tax Returns, claims or other documents necessary to settle any Tax controversy, the retention and (upon the other party’s request) the provision of records and information which are reasonably relevant to any such audit, litigation or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. In the case of any audit, litigation or other proceeding after the Closing Date that relates to Taxes for which Buyer is indemnified in Section 10.2(a) or Taxes for which none of the Transferred Companies is liable (including any such Taxes of Oldco or Seller for any period ending before, on or after the Closing Date, including federal income and state and local income and franchise Taxes for the taxable year of Oldco / Seller beginning on January 1, 2012 and ending on December 31, 2012), Seller shall control the conduct of such audit, litigation or other proceeding (a “Proceeding”) and shall be able to settle, compromise or concede any portion of such Proceeding; provided, however, that Seller shall not have the right to control any such Proceeding if (x) the outcome of such Proceeding may materially increase the Tax Liability of the Company, Buyer or any Affiliate of either of them for any period ending after the Closing Date or (y)(1) Buyer reasonably determines that there is a material risk that Buyer will not be able to collect from Seller Group Members the amount of Tax (plus any applicable interest and penalties) that may, in the event of an adverse resolution of such Proceeding, be determined to be due and owing by the Company, and (2) the Member Representative has failed or ceased diligently to defend against the adjustment in Tax proposed in such Proceeding. With respect to any Proceeding that it controls, the Member Representative (I) shall give prompt notice to Buyer of any Tax adjustment proposed in writing pursuant to such Proceeding, including, without limitation, the right to participate in conferences with taxing

60

authorities and submit pertinent material in support of Buyer’s position, and (II) shall afford Buyer the right to participate, at Buyer’s expense, in the conduct of such audit or other proceeding. The Seller Group Members agree either to retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Transferred Companies not transferred to Buyer in connection with the Closing relating to any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until the expiration of the statute of limitations (and, to the extent notified by Buyer, any extensions thereof) of the respective taxable periods or to allow Buyer to take possession of such books and records. Buyer agrees either to retain all books and records, if any, with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Transferred Companies transferred to Buyer in connection with the Closing relating to any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until the expiration of the statute of limitations (and, to the extent notified by any of the Seller Group Members, any extensions thereof) of the respective taxable periods, or to allow such Seller Group Member(s) to take possession of such books and records.

(ii) Buyer and Seller Group Members further agree, upon request by the other, to use their reasonable best efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any Governmental Authority or any other Person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any Tax that could be imposed (including, but not limited to, with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby).

(iii) All tax-sharing agreements or similar agreements with respect to or involving the Transferred Companies shall be terminated as of the Closing Date and, after the Closing Date, the Transferred Companies shall not be bound thereby or have any Liability thereunder.

9.10 Use of Names.

Without limiting the Transferred Companies’ Intellectual Property Rights or contractual rights thereto in any manner, each Seller Group Member agrees that from and after the Closing, except in a Shareholder’s personal capacity or in a Shareholder’s business capacity (but not in any manner that involves a Competing Business or is otherwise likely to cause confusion with any names used by the Transferred Companies) or in furtherance of the Transferred Companies’ Business as permitted by Buyer or its Affiliates (other than the Transferred Companies), it will not (and it will cause its Subsidiaries and Affiliates not to) use the names “A&A”, “Arminak”, or “ ”, “Arminak & Associates”, “Crystal Shine” or “ ”, or any other name or Mark used by the Transferred Companies or any translations, transliterations, adaptations, derivations, acronyms, variations, insignias, designations, or combinations thereof or any name or Mark likely to cause confusion with any of the foregoing.

9.11 Appointment of Member Representative.

(a) Each Seller Group Member hereby irrevocably appoints the person or persons designated herein from time to time to act as his or her or its representative (the “Member Representative”) under this Agreement and, as such, to act as his or her or its attorney-in-fact (with full power of substitution) to take any action on his or her or its behalf with respect to all matters relating to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Helga Arminak is hereby appointed and hereby accepts appointment as the initial Member

61

Representative (the “Initial Representative”). Each Seller Group Member acknowledges that the appointment of the Initial Representative as Member Representative in this Agreement is coupled with an interest and may not be revoked. The Initial Representative accepts her appointment and authorization to act as attorney-in-fact and agent of Seller Group Members.

(b) The Initial Representative will serve as Member Representative until the earlier of her resignation or removal (with or without cause) by the unanimous vote of Seller Group Members. Upon the resignation or removal of the Initial Representative, Seller Group Members will select a new Member Representative who may resign or be removed or replaced (with or without cause) by the unanimous vote of Seller Group Members. Each time a new Member Representative is appointed pursuant to this Agreement, such representative will accept such position in writing.

(c) Seller Group Members will notify Buyer promptly in writing of each change of Member Representative. Until Buyer receives the foregoing written notice, Buyer will be entitled to assume that each person acting as Member Representative is still a duly authorized Member Representative. Buyer will be entitled to rely upon as being binding upon each Seller Group Member any agreement, document, certificate or other instrument reasonably believed by Buyer to have been executed by any Member Representative, and Buyer will not be liable to any Seller Group Member for any action taken or omitted to be taken in such reliance, or otherwise in reliance upon the instructions or directions given, or actions taken, by any Member Representative that are contemplated or permitted to be given or taken thereby by the terms of this Agreement and the agreements to be entered into in connection with this Agreement.

(d) In furtherance of the appointment of Member Representative made in this Agreement, each Seller Group Member, fully and without restriction: (i) agrees to be bound by all notices received and agreements and determinations made by and documents executed and delivered by any Member Representative under this Agreement and the agreements to be entered into in connection with this Agreement and (ii) authorizes Member Representative to (A) deliver to Buyer all certificates and documents to be delivered to Buyer by Seller Group Members pursuant to this Agreement, together with any certificates and documents executed by a Seller Group Member and deposited with Member Representative for such purpose, (B) dispute or refrain from disputing any claim made by Buyer under this Agreement and the agreements to be entered into in connection with this Agreement, (C) negotiate and compromise any dispute that may arise under this Agreement and the agreements to be entered into in connection with this Agreement, (D) pay any amounts due Buyer under this Agreement, (E) exercise or refrain from exercising any remedies available to Seller Group Members under this Agreement and the agreements to be entered into in connection with this Agreement, (F) sign any releases or other documents with respect to any such dispute or remedy, (G) waive any condition contained in this Agreement and the agreements to be entered into in connection with this Agreement, (H) give such instructions and do such other things and refrain from doing such other things as any Member Representative, in her sole discretion, deems necessary or appropriate to carry out the provisions of this Agreement and the agreements to be entered into in connection with this Agreement and (I) receive all amounts payable by Buyer to Seller Group Members under this Agreement on behalf of Seller Group Members.

62

9.12 Reimbursement of Certain Special Transaction Taxes.

(a) In connection with the special transaction Taxes described in subparagraphs (i) through (iv) of this Section 9.12(a), Buyer agrees to pay to Seller the amounts set forth in such subparagraphs (i) through (iv), as and to the extent provided in this Section 9.12.

(i) Federal Built-in Gains Tax – For any taxable year of Seller, an amount equal to the California Individual Gross-Up Factor (as defined in Section 9.12(b)(i)) for such taxable year multiplied by the amount of any Tax imposed for such taxable year pursuant to Code §1374 on any “built-in gain” (as of January 1, 2009) recognized by Seller by reason of the sale of any portion of its Membership Interest in the Company to Buyer (whether recognized at the Closing or thereafter by reason of the sale of the Transferred Membership Interests or recognized by reason of the exercise of the put or call for which Section 9.1 provides). The parties agree that except to the extent otherwise required by any change in applicable Tax Law, Seller, on its federal income Tax Return for its taxable year including the Closing Date, shall report a net recognized built-in gain equal to the amount of net unrealized built-in gain set forth on Schedule 9.12(a)(i) and a built-in gains Tax equal to such net recognized built-in gain multiplied by the highest rate of Tax specified in Code §11(b) for such taxable year (currently 35%). The parties further agree that except to the extent otherwise required by any change in applicable Tax Law or by the Internal Revenue Service pursuant to any final adjustment in connection with a Dispute (as defined in Section 9.12(d)), Seller shall not report any net recognized built-in gain or any built-in gains Tax on its federal income Tax Return for any taxable year after its taxable year including the Closing Date.

(ii) State Built-in Gains Taxes – For any taxable year of Seller, an amount equal to the Gross-Down Factor (as defined in Section 9.12(b)(ii)) for such taxable year multiplied by the aggregate amount of Taxes imposed for such taxable year pursuant to California Revenue & Taxation Code Section 23809 or any Law similar to Code §1374 of any other state on any “built-in gain” (as of January 1, 2009) recognized for California or such other state’s income or franchise Tax purposes for such taxable year by Seller by reason of the sale of any portion of its Membership Interest in the Company to Buyer (whether recognized at the Closing or thereafter by reason of the sale of the Transferred Membership Interests or recognized by reason of the exercise of the put or call for which Section 9.1 provides). The parties agree that except to the extent otherwise required by any change in applicable Tax Law, Seller, on its California franchise Tax Return for its taxable year including the Closing Date, shall report (A) a California net recognized built-in gain equal to the amount of its federal net unrealized built-in gain set forth on Schedule 9.12(a)(i) multiplied by the lesser of its California apportionment percentage based on sales or its California apportionment percentage based on property, payroll and double-weighted sales, as reported on Seller’s California franchise Tax Return for its taxable year ending on December 31, 2012, in accordance with Schedule 9.12(a)(ii) (except for the replacement of the hypothetical or estimated California apportionment percentage with the final 2012 California apportionment percentage), and (B) a built-in gains Tax equal to such California net recognized built-in gain multiplied by the highest rate of California franchise Tax that applies to a C corporation doing business in California for such taxable year (currently 8.84%). The parties further agree that except to the extent otherwise required by any change in applicable Tax Law or by the California Franchise Tax Board pursuant to any final adjustment in connection with a Dispute (as defined in Section 9.12(d)), Seller shall not report any net recognized built-in

63

gain or any built-in gains Tax on its California franchise Tax Return for any taxable year after its taxable year including the Closing Date. The parties further agree that except to the extent otherwise required by applicable Tax Law or by a state taxing authority pursuant to any final adjustment in connection with a Dispute (as defined in Section 9.12(d)), Seller shall not report any net recognized built-in gain or any built-in gains Tax on any income Tax Return that it may file for any state other than California for its taxable year including the Closing Date or any subsequent taxable year.

(iii) California Franchise Tax on S Corporations – For Seller’s taxable year including the Closing Date and each taxable year of Seller thereafter during which Seller recognizes any gain by reason of its sale of the Transferred Membership Interests (but, for the avoidance of doubt, not any gain by reason of any exercise of a put or call), an amount equal to the Gross-Down Factor (as defined in Section 9.12(b)(ii)) for such taxable year multiplied by the California S Corporation Gross-Up Factor (as defined in Section 9.12(b)(iii)) for such taxable year multiplied by the excess of (A) the amount of the gain recognized by Seller and apportioned to California for California franchise Tax purposes during such taxable year by reason of its sale of the Transferred Membership Interests, over (B) the amount of the deduction, if any, that as a result of such sale would be available to Seller for California franchise Tax purposes for such taxable year for any built-in gains apportioned to California and subject to the built-in gains Tax imposed on Seller for such taxable year pursuant to California Revenue & Taxation Code Section 23809 if, as Seller anticipates, Seller remained an S corporation for California franchise Tax purposes throughout such taxable year (whether or not Seller is or actually does remain an S corporation). For the avoidance of doubt, the amount of any other income, gains, deductions, losses, credits or other items of Seller, including its passthrough share of such items as a member of the Company, shall be disregarded in determining the amounts specified in clauses (A) and (B) above. If for such taxable year Seller would have any election or other choice available to it with respect to the applicable apportionment formula for purposes of clause (A) or clause (B) above, Seller shall be deemed to have elected for such purposes the available apportionment formula that results in the greatest permissible apportionment outside of California unless Buyer otherwise elects.

(iv) Ordinary Income – For Seller’s taxable year including the Closing Date, an amount equal to the Gross-Up Factor (as defined in Section 9.12(b)(iv)) for such taxable year multiplied by the Tax Rate Differential (as defined in Section 9.12(b)(v)) for such taxable year multiplied by seventy percent (70%) of the excess, if any, of the aggregate allocation required by Section 9.9(b)(ii) to all Ordinary Income Assets (as defined in Section 9.12(b)(vi)) of the Company over the Company’s aggregate adjusted basis for such Ordinary Income Assets for federal income Tax purposes determined as of the Closing Date but without regard to the sale of the Transferred Membership Interests (to the extent such excess is taxable as ordinary income rather than capital gain for federal income Tax purposes).

(b) The following definitions and rules shall apply for purposes of this Section 9.12:

(i) The “California Individual Gross-Up Factor” for any taxable year of Seller shall be equal to 1 / (1—x), where x = the highest marginal California personal income Tax rate (including the Mental Health Services Tax imposed by California Revenue &

64

Taxation Code Section 17043 and any surtax) that applies to a California resident individual for such taxable year (currently 10.3%). Thus, under current Law, the California Individual Gross-Up Factor for Seller’s taxable year ending December 31, 2012 is equal to 111.4827% ( 1 / (1 -.103)).

(ii) The “Gross-Down Factor” for any taxable year of Seller shall be equal to 1 / (1 + (x - y)), where x = the highest marginal federal alternative minimum Tax rate (including any surtax) that applies to a U.S. citizen for such taxable year (currently 28%), and y = the highest rate of federal income Tax that applies to a U.S. citizen’s long-term capital gains for such taxable year (currently 15%); provided, however, that for any taxable year after 2012, x = the highest marginal federal income Tax rate (including any surtax) that applies to a U.S. citizen for such taxable year (currently 35%). Thus, under current Law, the Gross-Down Factor for Seller’s taxable year ending December 31, 2012 is equal to 88.4956% ( 1 / (1 + (.28 - .15))).

(iii) The “California S Corporation Gross-Up Factor” for any taxable year of Seller shall be equal to 1 / (1 - x / (1 - y)), where x = the highest rate of California franchise Tax that applies to an S corporation doing business in California for such taxable year (currently 1.5%), and y = the highest marginal California personal income Tax rate (including the Mental Health Services Tax imposed by California Revenue & Taxation Code Section 17043 and any surtax) that applies to a California resident individual for such taxable year (currently 10.3%). Thus, under current Law, the California S Corporation Gross-Up Factor for Seller’s taxable year ending December 31, 2012 is equal to 101.7007% ( 1 / (1 - .015 / (1 - .103))).

(iv) The “Gross-Up Factor” for Seller’s taxable year including the Closing Date shall be equal to 1 / (1 - (x + y)), where x = the highest rate of federal income Tax that applies to a U.S. citizen’s long-term capital gains for such taxable year (currently 15%), and y = the highest marginal California personal income Tax rate (including the Mental Health Services Tax imposed by California Revenue & Taxation Code Section 17043 and any surtax) that applies to a California resident individual for such taxable year (currently 10.3%). Thus, under current Law, the Gross-Up Factor for Seller’s taxable year ending December 31, 2012 is equal to 133.8688% ( 1 / (1 - (.15 + .103))). For purposes of Section 9.12(g), the “Gross-Up Factor” for any subsequent taxable year of Seller shall be equal to 1 / (1 - (x + (y * (1 - z)))), where x = the highest rate of federal income Tax that applies to a U.S. citizen’s long-term capital gains for such taxable year (currently 15%), y = the highest marginal California personal income Tax rate (including the Mental Health Services Tax imposed by California Revenue & Taxation Code Section 17043 and any surtax) that applies to a California resident individual for such taxable year (currently 10.3%), and z = the highest marginal federal income Tax rate (including any surtax) that applies to a U.S. citizen for such taxable year (currently 35%). Thus, under current Law, the Gross-Up Factor for Seller’s taxable year ending December 31, 2014 is equal to 127.7058% ( 1 / (1 - (.15 + (.103 * (1 - .35)))).

(v) The “Tax Rate Differential” for Seller’s taxable year including the Closing Date shall be equal to the excess (currently 13%) of the highest marginal federal alternative minimum Tax rate (including any surtax) that applies to a U.S. citizen for such taxable year (currently 28%) over the highest rate of federal income Tax that applies to a U.S. citizen’s long-term capital gains for such taxable year (currently 15%).

65

(vi) “Ordinary Income Assets” means assets to the extent that any gain on the sale of such assets would be ordinary income rather than capital gain for federal income Tax purposes.

(vii) In determining (A) the amount of gain recognized on sale of the Transferred Membership Interests under subparagraph (iii) of Section 9.12(a), and (B) the adjusted basis of Ordinary Income Assets for purposes of applying subparagraph (iv) of Section 9.12(a), there shall be used the Tax basis information set forth on the attached Schedule 9.12(b)(vii), as the same may be adjusted for the passage of time from the date as of such information (as indicated on such schedule) through the Closing Date (but without regard to the sale of the Transferred Membership Interests). As soon as practicable after the Closing, Seller shall notify Buyer of Seller’s calculation of any such adjustments (which shall be subject to Buyer’s review and approval and, in the event of any disagreement regarding the same, such disagreement shall be submitted to the Accounting Firm for resolution).

(c) The total amount to be paid pursuant to each subparagraph of Section 9.12(a) for any taxable year of Seller, if any, shall be estimated by Seller and provided, with appropriate supporting calculations, in writing to Buyer within sixty (60) days after the date of each payment to Seller which is included in the Tax Purchase Price; provided that with respect to Section 9.12(a)(iv), such estimate and supporting calculations shall initially be provided within sixty (60) days after the date Buyer notifies Seller in writing of the aggregate allocation required by Section 9.9(b)(ii) to all Ordinary Income Assets of the Company. In connection with each such estimate, Seller may but shall not be required to provide to Buyer one or more additional revised estimates, with appropriate supporting calculations, at any time during such taxable year. Seller shall provide to Buyer an additional calculation after the end of such taxable year if such calculation would differ from the most recent estimate. If Buyer disputes any such estimate or calculation, the dispute shall be submitted to the Accounting Firm for resolution. The cost of the Accounting Firm shall be borne equally by Buyer and Seller. Buyer shall spread its payment of the most recent estimated amount required to be paid to Seller pursuant to any subparagraph of Section 9.12(a) for any taxable year of Seller among the four estimated Tax installments in proportion to the applicable estimated Tax percentages for Seller for such taxable year (currently 25% per quarter for federal income Tax estimated Tax installments and 30%, 40%, 0% and 30% for quarters 1-4, respectively, for California franchise Tax estimated Tax installments); provided that the most recent estimated amount required to be paid to Seller pursuant to Section 9.12(a)(iv) for Seller’s taxable year including the Closing Date shall instead be paid in full in connection with the fourth quarter estimated Tax installment. Buyer shall wire to the account designated by Seller the amount to be paid pursuant to each subparagraph of Section 9.12(a) in connection with each estimated Tax installment for Seller for each taxable year of Seller, on or before the later of (i) the 20^th day after Seller provided its most recent required or optional estimate and supporting calculations to Buyer with respect to such subparagraph and such taxable year (unless, within fifteen (15) days after receiving such estimate and supporting calculations, Buyer notified Seller that Buyer disagreed with such estimate and provided its estimate and supporting calculations in writing to Seller, in which case such 20^th day shall instead be the 5^th day after resolution of the dispute, either by agreement of the parties or by the Accounting Firm), or (ii) five (5) business days before the due date of such estimated income or franchise Tax installment (currently April 15, June 15, September 15 and December 15 of such taxable year). If, at any time after the end of any taxable year, and before the due date with

66

extensions of Seller’s federal income tax return for such year, other than by reason of a final adjustment as a result of a Dispute (as defined in Section 9.12(d)), (A) the aggregate amount to be paid pursuant to Section 9.12(a) for such taxable year exceeds the aggregate payments previously made by Buyer to Seller pursuant to Section 9.12(a) for such taxable year reduced by the aggregate payments, if any, previously made by Seller to Buyer pursuant to this sentence, Buyer shall wire to the account designated by Seller the amount of the excess, or (B) the aggregate payments previously made by Buyer to Seller pursuant to Section 9.12(a) for such taxable year reduced by the aggregate payments, if any, previously made by Seller to Buyer pursuant to this sentence exceed the aggregate amount to be paid pursuant to Section 9.12(a) for such taxable year, Seller shall wire to the account designated by Buyer the amount of the excess, in each case on or before the 20^th day after either party (a “Providing Party”) provided its most recent calculation to the other party with respect to such subparagraph and such taxable year (unless, within fifteen (15) days after receiving such calculation, such other party notified the Providing Party that such party disagreed with such calculation and gave its own calculation in writing to the Providing Party, in which case such 20^th day shall instead be the 5^th day after resolution of the dispute, either by agreement of the parties or by the Accounting Firm).

(d) In the event of any audit by or dispute with any taxing authority (a “Dispute”) concerning any Tax issue and taxable year based on which Buyer has made or is required to make any payment to Seller pursuant to this Section 9.12, Seller shall control the conduct of such Dispute and shall be able to settle, compromise or concede any portion of such Dispute; provided, however, that Seller shall not have the right to control any such Dispute if the Member Representative has failed or ceased diligently to defend against the adjustment in Tax proposed in such Dispute, and provided, further, that Seller shall not have the right to settle, compromise or concede any portion of such Dispute without the prior approval of Buyer unless Buyer has previously paid, or without regard to such Dispute is required to pay, pursuant to this Section 9.12 the amount of its maximum potential Liability pursuant to Section 9.12(e). With respect to any Dispute that it controls, the Member Representative (i) shall give prompt notice to Buyer of any Tax adjustment proposed in writing pursuant to such Dispute, including, without limitation, the right to participate in conferences with taxing authorities and submit pertinent material in support of Buyer’s position, and (ii) shall afford Buyer the right to participate, at Buyer’s expense, in the conduct of such Dispute. Subject to Section 9.12(e) and Section 9.12(i) but notwithstanding any other contrary provision of this Agreement, upon request from time to time by Seller, accompanied in each case by a copy of the related invoice(s), Buyer shall pay to Seller that portion of the reasonable professional fees and other costs incurred by Seller in connection with any Dispute that is attributable to one or more Tax issues and taxable years based on which Buyer has made or is required to make any payment to Seller pursuant to this Section 9.12 (and not, for example, to any other Tax issues or taxable years that may also be included in such Dispute) (such portion of such reasonable professional fees and other costs, the “Dispute Fees”). For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of the immediately preceding sentence, “costs” shall not include any Taxes, interest, penalties or other additions to Tax. If, as a result of any Dispute, there is a final adjustment for any taxable year, then:

(i) The amount payable by Buyer to Seller pursuant to this Section 9.12 shall be recomputed to reflect such final adjustment, including in such amount payable any interest, penalties and other additions to Tax (but excluding any penalties for fraud or gross negligence) which may be included in such final adjustment); provided

67

that for the avoidance of doubt, no final adjustment in connection with Section 9.12(a)(iii) for any taxable year (including any final adjustment in the amount of Seller’s California franchise Tax for such taxable year) shall be taken into account for purposes of such recomputation except any final adjustment in (A) the amount of the gain recognized by Seller and apportioned to California for California franchise Tax purposes during such taxable year by reason of its sale of the Transferred Membership Interests, or (B) the amount of any built-in gains apportioned to California and subject to the built-in gains Tax imposed on Seller for such taxable year pursuant to California Revenue & Taxation Code Section 23809; and

(ii) Buyer or Seller, as the case may be, shall promptly upon request (and, in the case of Buyer, upon receipt from Seller of a copy of the audit report or other evidence of such final adjustment) wire to the account designated by Seller or Buyer, respectively, the amount of the difference between the aggregate amount previously paid by Buyer to Seller pursuant to this Section 9.12 and the total amount to be paid by Buyer to Seller pursuant to this Section 9.12 taking such final adjustment into account. The provisions of this Section 9.12(d), including the immediately preceding sentence, shall also apply in the case of refunds, or credits or offsets against any Taxes of Seller, received by Seller with respect to any federal or state Taxes that were paid for any taxable year of Seller beginning on or after January 1, 2012 and are related to any Tax issue and taxable year based on which Buyer has made or is required to make any payment to Seller pursuant to this Section 9.12. For purposes of recomputing the amount payable by Buyer to Seller pursuant to this Section 9.12 as to any such federal or state Taxes, the aggregate amount of such federal or state Taxes paid by Seller shall not include the amount of such Taxes paid by Seller to the extent of refunds, or credits or offsets against any Taxes of Seller, received by Seller with respect to any such federal or state Taxes paid for any taxable year of Seller beginning on or after January 1, 2012 (treating any interest received by Seller as if it were a refund of such Taxes paid).

(e) In no event will the aggregate Liability of Buyer for payments to Seller pursuant to this Section 9.12 (determined without regard to Section 9.12(g)) exceed $9,000,000 (the “Cap”). Solely for this purpose, any payments made by Buyer to Seller pursuant to the first sentence of Section 9.9(e) shall be treated as payments made to Seller pursuant to this Section 9.12 and, accordingly, shall be included in the aggregate amount of payments subject to the Cap.

(f) All payments made by Buyer to Seller, or by Seller to Buyer, pursuant to this Section 9.12 shall be treated by the parties as an adjustment to the Tax Purchase Price unless otherwise required by Law.

(g) The parties acknowledge that allocations of taxable income of the Company to the Seller Group Members will increase the Tax bases of their Membership Interests, and that allocations of taxable loss of the Company and distributions of cash to them will reduce such Tax bases, under Code §705. Accordingly, to the extent they are allocated more taxable income than the sum of the amounts of taxable loss allocated to them and of cash distributed to them, the Tax bases of their Membership Interests will increase over time, resulting in income Tax savings to them on sale of their Membership Interests. In connection with any sale of Membership Interests by Seller or Newco pursuant to the exercise of a Put or Call under

68

the Operating Agreement (with all such terms having the meanings ascribed to them in the Operating Agreement), Seller agrees to pay to Buyer the Tax Savings Amount (as defined below, representing the parties’ estimated amount of such Tax savings to the Seller Group Members) for such sale, as provided in this Section 9.12(g).

The “Tax Savings Amount” for any such sale shall be equal to the product of:

(i) the Gross-Up Factor for the taxable year of such sale (under current law, the Gross-Up Factor for Seller’s taxable year ending on December 31 in 2014, 2015 or 2016 is, pursuant to Section 9.12(b)(iv), equal to 127.7058%), provided that if the Tax Savings Amount for such sale determined without regard to this proviso exceeds the amount of the gain that Seller or Newco, as the case may be, realizes on such sale for federal income Tax purposes or Seller or Newco realize a loss or no gain on such sale, then notwithstanding Section 9.12(b)(iv), the Gross-Up Factor for the taxable year of such sale for purposes of applying this clause (i) to such sale shall be equal to 1 / (1 – (w * (x + (y * (1 – z))))), where w = the amount of the gain, if any, that Seller or Newco, as the case may be, realizes on such sale for federal income Tax purposes (and zero if a loss or no gain is realized) divided by the Tax Savings Amount for such sale determined without regard to this proviso and x, y and z have the meanings specified in the third sentence of Section 9.12(b)(iv) (and for the avoidance of doubt, the parties agree that the Gross-Up Factor for the taxable year of such sale for purposes of applying this clause (i) to such sale shall be 100% if Seller or Newco, as the case may be, realizes a loss or no gain on such sale for federal income Tax purposes, and otherwise shall be no less than 100% and no greater than the Gross-Up Factor for the taxable year of such sale determined without regard to this proviso);

(ii) the excess, if any, of (A) the net increase, if any, in the Tax basis for federal income Tax purposes of the Membership Interests sold by Seller or Newco, as the case may be, in such sale, solely by reason of the aggregate allocations of taxable income, if any, to Seller or Newco, as the case may be, for federal income Tax purposes with respect to such Membership Interests for periods beginning on or after the day after the Closing Date in excess of the sum of (I) the aggregate allocations of taxable loss, if any, to Seller or Newco, as the case may be, for federal income Tax purposes with respect to such Membership Interests for such periods, and (II) the aggregate distributions of cash to Seller or Newco, as the case may be, with respect to such Membership Interests at any time after the Closing Date (including Tax distributions with respect to such Membership Interests pursuant to Section 3.1 of the Operating Agreement whether made before, on or after the closing date of such sale), over (B) the amount of the loss, if any, realized by Seller or Newco, as the case may be, on such sale for federal income Tax purposes (which amount described in this subclause (B) is understood to be zero if there is no such loss); and

(iii) an amount equal to x + (y * (1 - z)) (currently 21.695%), where x = the highest rate of federal income Tax that applies to a U.S. citizen’s long-term capital gains for such taxable year (currently 15%), y = the highest marginal California personal income Tax rate (including the Mental Health Services Tax imposed by California Revenue & Taxation Code Section 17043 and any surtax) that applies to a California resident individual for such taxable year (currently 10.3%), and z = the highest marginal federal income Tax rate (including any surtax) that applies to a U.S. citizen for such taxable year (currently 35%); provided that the formula in clause (iii) of this sentence shall instead be x + y (currently 25.3%), where x and y have the meanings specified

69

in such clause (iii), unless, within 9  ¹/2 months after the end of the taxable year of such sale, Helga Arminak delivers to the Company a written certification from the accountant who prepared or will prepare her federal income Tax Return for such year that she owes (or owed but paid) federal income Tax, but not federal alternative minimum Tax, for such taxable year.

The Tax Savings Amount for such sale shall be estimated by the parties and offset against the purchase price paid at the closing for such sale, with a true-up payment made by Buyer or Seller, within 15 days of the final calculation of the Tax Savings Amount, equal to any difference between the final calculation of the Tax Savings Amount and the estimate. For purposes of this Section 9.12(g), the amount of the gain or loss realized by Seller or Newco, as the case may be, on such sale for federal income Tax purposes shall be determined based on the Tax basis information, as adjusted after the Closing, referenced in Section 9.12(b)(vii) and based on such other information not in conflict therewith as is relevant in determining in accordance with Code §705 the Tax basis of the Membership Interests of Seller or Newco, as the case may be, that are sold in such sale. In connection therewith, Buyer shall have access to such other information. Any dispute regarding the amount of the gain or loss realized by Seller or Newco shall be submitted to the Accounting Firm for resolution, promptly following (and, in any event, within 15 days of) which any required true-up payment shall be made.

(h) The provisions of this Section 9.12 are illustrated by examples on Schedule 9.12(h).

(i) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 9.12, for taxable years of Seller after Seller’s taxable year including the Closing Date, Buyer shall not be required to pay to Seller pursuant to Section 9.12(a)(i) (with respect to federal built-in gains Taxes) or Section 9.12(a)(ii) (with respect to California built-in gains Taxes) or Section 9.12(d), (A) fifty percent (50%) of the Double Tax (as defined below) multiplied by the California Individual Gross-Up Factor (as defined in Section 9.12(b)(i)) for the taxable year of Seller (with respect to Section 9.12(a)(i)) or multiplied by the Gross-Down Factor (as defined in Section 9.12(b)(ii)) for the taxable year of Seller, as the case may be, or (B) the interest, penalties, or Dispute Fees (as defined in Section 9.12(d)) directly related to the Double Tax. The “Double Tax” shall be equal to the aggregate amount, if any, of the federal or California built-in gains Taxes paid by Seller for all of its taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2012 by reason of the sale of any portion of its Membership Interest in the Company to Buyer (including pursuant to the future exercise of the put or call for which Section 9.1 provides) in excess of one hundred percent (100%) of such federal and California built-in gains Taxes that would be paid by Seller for all of its taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2012 based on the federal net unrealized built-in gain or the federal net unrealized built-in gain apportioned to California, as the case may be, as finally determined for federal or California built-in gains Tax purposes. (I) For purposes of applying the immediately preceding sentence, the aggregate amount of federal or California built-in gains Taxes paid by Seller shall not include the amount of such Taxes paid by Seller to the extent of refunds, or credits or offsets against any Taxes of Seller, received by Seller with respect to any federal or California built-in gains Taxes paid for any taxable year of Seller beginning on or after January 1, 2012 (excluding from such refunds, credits or offsets any interest received by Seller), and (II) the provisions of Section 9.12(d)(ii) to the effect that certain refunds, offsets or credits result in a recomputation of the amount payable by Buyer to Seller pursuant to this Section 9.12 and an appropriate payment by Buyer or Seller, as the case may be,

70

shall apply to the refunds, credits or offsets described in clause (I) above, provided that for purposes of this Section 9.12 any interest received by Seller in connection with any refunds, credits or offsets described in clause (I) above shall be excluded from the amount of such refunds, credits or offsets.

9.13 Funding the Limited Agreement.

(a) Buyer agrees to cause the Company to perform its obligations under the Limited Agreement, including the construction of the Facility. Buyer further agrees that if, in order to perform its obligations under the Limited Agreement, the Company requires funding in addition to any funds that are generated internally by the Company operations, then Buyer will provide debt financing in an amount necessary or appropriate to enable the Company to perform its obligations under the Limited Agreement. All such debt financing provided by or on behalf of Buyer shall bear a market rate of interest.

(b) Following the Closing, Buyer and the Company shall (i) be responsible for all of the costs, expenses or payments required to enable the Company to perform its obligations under the Limited Agreement and (ii) be liable in any respect for all defaults or breaches by the Company under the Limited Agreement. Buyer and/or the Company shall reimburse and indemnify each Seller Group Member any such costs, expenses and/or Liabilities referred to in the preceding sentence.

9.14 Access to Records.

For a period of seven (7) years after the Closing, Buyer and the Transferred Companies shall (a) maintain in an orderly and businesslike fashion all books, records and data in such Person’s possession on the Closing Date; (b) permit each Seller Group Member and their respective employees, counsel, auditors and other representatives to have reasonable access at such Seller Group Member’s expense to such books, records and data in connection with the preparation of such Seller Group Member’s financial reports, tax returns, tax audits and the defense or prosecution of litigation (including arbitration); and (c) provide each Seller Group Member with reasonable assistance at such Seller Group Member’s expense (but only for Buyer’s or the Transferred Company’s documented out-of-pocket expenses that have been pre-approved by such Seller Group Member) by the provision of employees of the Transferred Companies to act as witnesses and to prepare documents, reports and other information requested by such Seller Group Member in support of activities described in clause (b) above.

9.15 Excluded Assets and Excluded Liabilities.

With respect to any Excluded Assets which are not capable of being transferred out of the Transferred Companies prior to the Closing, after the Closing, the Transferred Companies shall (and Buyer shall cause each of the Transferred Companies to) provide Seller with all of the benefits and proceeds of such Excluded Assets as and when received by the Transferred Companies and when an Excluded Asset becomes capable of being transferred, the Transferred Companies shall promptly transfer title, ownership and possession of such Excluded Asset to Seller in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Buyer and Member Representative. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Excluded Assets, the Excluded Liabilities and the Excluded Asset/Liability Agreements shall remain subject to the indemnity obligations of each Seller Group Member to the extent set forth in ARTICLE 10.

71

9.16 Automobile Leases.

Following the Closing, the Seller Group Members shall be responsible for all costs, expenses and Liabilities incurred by the Company in connection with the two automobiles listed below (each, a “Leased Car”), including the cost of leasing, operation, maintenance, repairs, any return or mileage fees and insurance coverage. Reimbursement for such costs, expenses and payments will be made to the Company either, at the sole discretion of the Company, (i) by the Company offsetting the wages of the employee who has responsibility for the applicable Leased Car, or (ii) by Member Representative paying the Company on behalf of the employee who has responsibility for the applicable Leased Car within ten (10) days after the Company submits to Member Representative an invoice for such costs, expenses and payments:

(a) that certain Motor Vehicle Lease Agreement between Rusnak Arcadia and the Company in connection with the lease of a 2009 Mercedes B-S550V SD; and

(b) that certain Motor Vehicle Lease Agreement between Rusnak Pasadena and the Company in connection with the lease of a 2009 Porsche Cayenne 4DR SUV.

Buyer and the Company agree that, following Closing, the Seller Group Member who has responsibility for a Leased Car shall have the exclusive right to use that Leased Car.

Notwithstanding the preceding sentence of this Section 10.1, if an Indemnitee delivers written notice to the other party of a claim for indemnification for a breach of any representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth herein or in any Related Agreement prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period, such claim shall survive until finally resolved. The representations, warranties, covenants and other agreements in this Agreement and the Related Agreements and the Schedules and Exhibits attached hereto and thereto shall in no event be affected by any investigation, inquiry or examination made for or on behalf of any party.

10.2 Indemnification.

(a) Indemnification by Seller Group Members. From and after the Closing, each Seller Group Member, jointly and severally, agrees and covenants to indemnify Buyer and its Affiliates (including the Transferred Companies after the Closing), and their respective stockholders, unitholders, officers, directors, employees, members, managers, agents, partners, representatives, successors and assigns (each, a “Buyer Party” and collectively, the “Buyer Parties”) and save and hold each of them harmless against and pay on behalf of or reimburse such Buyer Parties as and when incurred for any loss, Liability, demand, judgment, claim, action, cause of action, cost, damage, deficiency, Tax, penalty, fine or expense, whether or not arising out of third-party claims (including interest, penalties, reasonable legal, consulting and other professional fees and expenses) and all amounts incurred in investigation, defense or settlement of any of the foregoing, including all amounts incurred in determining that such amounts meet the definition of a ‘Mature Loss.’ (collectively, “Losses”), which any such Buyer Party may suffer, sustain or become subject to, based upon, arising out of or incurred as a result of:

(i) any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations or warranties of any Seller Group Member or the Company contained in this Agreement and the Related Agreements and the Schedules and Exhibits attached hereto and thereto;

(ii) any breach or default in the performance of any covenant, agreement or obligation to be performed by any Seller Group Member pursuant to this Agreement and the Related Agreements or any of the Schedules and Exhibits attached hereto;

(iii) any outstanding Indebtedness of the Transferred Companies in existence as of the Closing (or otherwise relating to periods on or prior to the Closing) and any Losses related to removing any Encumbrances (other than Permitted Encumbrances) on the assets, properties, titles or interests of the Transferred Companies immediately prior to or after the Closing;

73

(iv) any Excluded Liabilities and any breach or default in the performance of any covenant, agreement or obligation to be performed by any Seller Group Member or the Company (prior to the Closing) pursuant to, or any tort claim against any Seller Group Member or the Company (in connection with actions of the Company prior to the Closing) related to, the Excluded Asset/Liability Agreements;

(v) any Transaction Expenses unpaid or outstanding as of the Closing (including all costs and expenses of Sage related to the fees and expenses that will be due in connection with any sale of all or any portion of the 30% Membership Interests that are subject to the put/call rights);

(vi) those items listed on Schedule 10.2(a)(vi).

For the avoidance of doubt, the parties agree that with respect to the Excluded Liabilities and the Excluded Asset/Liability Agreements, the Buyer Parties may pursue their indemnity rights under this ARTICLE 10 first or jointly with the Company asserting its rights under the Excluded Asset/Liability Agreements, and the Company need not first recover (or fail to recover) under the Excluded Asset/Liability Agreements in order for the Buyer Parties to obtain indemnification for their Losses from the Seller Group Members under this ARTICLE 10.

With respect to any particular Losses, the Buyer Parties shall not be entitled to any indemnification under this Section 10.2(a) to the extent that such Losses have been otherwise specifically addressed pursuant to an adjustment under Section 2.4(g) or to the extent that they have actually been paid pursuant to Section 9.9(b)(i) or any other provision of this Agreement except this Section 10.2(a). In connection with any Mature Losses which the Buyer Parties are entitled to payment or reimbursement for hereunder, the Buyer Parties shall proceed in the following order: (A) first, proceed against the funds in the Escrow, (B) second, if at the time any Mature Losses are due and payable to the Buyer Parties (after first proceeding against the funds in Escrow) Buyer is obligated to pay to Seller any purchase price in connection with the exercise of the put and call rights referred to in Section 9.1 of this Agreement, then Buyer shall have the right to set off the amount of such Mature Losses against any such purchase price amounts in the manner set forth in the Operating Agreement, and (C) third, then directly against any Seller Group Member. It is understood and agreed that if at the time any Mature Losses are due and payable to the Buyer Parties, the funds in the Escrow have been exhausted or the Escrow no longer exists, and there are no unpaid purchase price amounts payable by Buyer with respect to the put and call rights referred to in Section 9.1 of this Agreement, then Buyer may seek to proceed to recover such Mature Losses directly from any Seller Group Member (as provided in Clause (C), above). Each Seller Group Member agrees and acknowledges that nothing in this Agreement (including this Section 10.2(a)) shall limit or restrict any of the Buyer Parties’ rights to maintain or recover any amounts in connection with any action or claim based upon fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful or criminal misconduct. Nothing in this Section 10.2(a) shall be deemed to alter the survival periods set forth in Section 10.1 in any manner.

(b) Indemnification by Buyer. From and after the Closing, Buyer agrees and covenants to indemnify Seller Group Members and their respective Affiliates and their respective stockholders, unitholders, officers, directors, employees, members, managers, agents, partners, representatives, successors and assigns (each, a “Seller Party” and collectively, the “Seller Parties”) and save and hold each of them harmless against and pay on behalf of or reimburse such Seller Parties as and when incurred for any Losses which any such Seller Party may suffer, sustain or become subject to, based upon, arising out of or incurred as a result of:

(i) any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations or warranties of Buyer contained in this Agreement and the Related Agreements and the Schedules and Exhibits attached hereto and thereto;

(ii) any breach or default in the performance of any covenant, agreement or obligation to be performed by Buyer or any of its Affiliates pursuant to this Agreement and the Related Agreements or any of the Schedules and Exhibits attached hereto; and

(iii) any breach or default in the performance of any covenant, agreement or obligation to be performed by either Buyer or the Company (after the Closing) pursuant to, or any tort claim against Buyer or the Company (in connection with actions of the Company after the Closing) related to, the Excluded Asset/Liability Agreements after the Closing.

With respect to any particular Losses, the Seller Parties shall not be entitled to any indemnification under this Section 10.2(b) to the extent that such Losses have been otherwise specifically addressed pursuant to an adjustment under Section 2.4(g), or to the extent such Losses have actually been paid pursuant to any provision of this Agreement except this Section 10.2(b). Seller Group Members may seek to proceed to recover any Mature Losses directly from Buyer. Buyer agrees and acknowledges that nothing in this Agreement (including this Section 10.2(b)) shall limit or restrict any Seller Party’s rights to maintain or recover any amounts in connection with any action or claim based upon fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful or criminal misconduct. Nothing in this Section 10.2(b) shall be deemed to alter the survival periods set forth in Section 10.1 in any manner. Provided further, that any Seller Party that alleges a breach of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 7.9 shall bear the initial burden of proving that Lynn Brooks or Don Laipple, as applicable, had actual knowledge (evidenced by a conscious awareness of the relevant facts) of the applicable breach of representation or warranty by the breaching Seller Group Member(s) and/or the Company.

10.3 Certain Limitations.

(a) Indemnification by Seller Group Members. Seller Group Members shall not be liable to the Buyer Parties for indemnification under Section 10.2(a)(i) (other than with respect to a claim for indemnification based upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason of any inaccuracy in or breach of any Fundamental Representations or any Statutory Representations), until the aggregate amount of all such Losses exceeds $280,000.00, in which event Seller Group Members shall be required to pay or be liable for all such Losses from the first dollar; provided, however, that in no event shall Seller Group Members be liable to the Buyer Parties for indemnification under Section 10.2(a)(i) (other than with respect to a claim for indemnification based upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason of any inaccuracy in or breach of any Fundamental Representations or any Statutory Representations) for any Losses in excess of $7,500,000.00. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the cumulative indemnification obligation of Roger Abadjian as an individual under Section 10.2(a) shall in no event exceed 2.5% of the Purchase Price actually paid to Seller hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of the other Seller Group Members shall remain jointly and severally liable for the indemnification obligations under Section 10.2(a).

75

(b) Determination of Losses. For purposes of this ARTICLE 10, (i) the amount of any Loss resulting from any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty shall be determined without regard to any materiality or Material Adverse Effect qualification contained in or otherwise applicable to such representation or warranty, and (ii) any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty shall be determined without regard to any materiality or Material Adverse Effect qualification contained in or otherwise applicable to such representation or warranty. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties have included materiality qualifiers in the representations and warranties for the sole purpose of preparing disclosure schedules and diligence related thereto, and not for the purpose of allocating risk of loss between the parties.

10.4 Indemnification Procedures.

(a) Defense of Third-Party Claims. Except as set forth in Section 9.9, any Person making a claim (“Third Party Claim”) for indemnification under this Section 10.4(a) (an “Indemnitee”) shall notify the indemnifying party (an “Indemnitor”) of the claim in writing promptly after receiving written notice of any action, lawsuit, proceeding, investigation or other claim against it (if by a third party), describing the claim, the amount thereof (if known and quantifiable) and the basis thereof; provided, that the failure to so notify an Indemnitor shall not relieve the Indemnitor of its obligations hereunder except to the extent that (and only to the extent that) the Indemnitor forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure. The Indemnitor, shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such action, lawsuit, proceeding, investigation or other claim giving rise to an Indemnitee’s claim for indemnification at such Indemnitor’s expense, and at its option (subject to the limitations set forth below) shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof by appointing a recognized and reputable counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee to be the lead counsel in connection with such defense; provided, that prior to the Indemnitor assuming control of such defense the Indemnitor shall first (i) confirm to the Indemnitee in writing that the Indemnitor shall be fully responsible (with no reservation of any rights) for all Liabilities and obligations relating to such claim for indemnification in accordance with and subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth in this ARTICLE 10, and (ii) verify to the reasonable satisfaction of the Indemnitee that the Indemnitor has sufficient financial resources to fund the litigation and all Liabilities and obligations relating to such claim for indemnification; and provided, further, that:

(i) the Indemnitee shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such claim and to employ counsel of its choice for such purpose; provided, that the fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be borne by the Indemnitee (other than any fees and expenses of such separate counsel that are incurred prior to the date the Indemnitor effectively assumes control of such defense which, notwithstanding the foregoing, shall be borne by the Indemnitor, and except that the Indemnitor shall pay all of the fees and expenses of such separate counsel if the Indemnitee has been advised by counsel pursuant to a written legal opinion that a reasonable likelihood exists of a conflict of interest between the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee); and

76

(ii) an Indemnitor shall not be entitled to control such defense (unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Indemnitee) and the Indemnitor shall pay the fees and expenses of counsel retained by the Indemnitee if (A) the claim for indemnification relates to or arises in connection with any criminal or quasi-criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation; (B) the Indemnitee reasonably believes an adverse determination with respect to the action, lawsuit, investigation, proceeding or other claim giving rise to such claim for indemnification would be detrimental to or injure the Indemnitee’s reputation or future business prospects; (C) the claim seeks an injunction or equitable relief against the Indemnitee; (D) the Indemnitee has been advised by counsel that a reasonable likelihood exists of a conflict of interest between the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee; (E) if the Indemnitor is a Seller Group Member, the claim is brought by a customer or supplier of the Transferred Companies; or (F) the Indemnitor failed or is failing to vigorously prosecute or defend such claim.

(b) Settlement of Third Party Claims. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Indemnitor shall not enter into settlement of any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, except as provided in this Section 10.4(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 Indemnitee and provides, in customary form, for the unconditional release of each Indemnitee from all Liabilities and obligations in connection with such Third Party Claim and the Indemnitor desires to accept and agree to such offer, the Indemnitor shall give written notice to that effect to the Indemnitee. If the Indemnitee fails to consent to such firm offer within ten days after its receipt of such notice, the Indemnitee may continue to contest or defend such Third Party Claim and in such event, the maximum Liability of the Indemnitor as to such Third Party Claim shall not exceed the amount of such settlement offer. If the Indemnitee fails to consent to such firm offer and also fails to assume defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnitor may settle the Third Party Claim upon the terms set forth in such firm offer to settle such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnitee has assumed the defense pursuant to Section 10.4(a), it shall not agree to any settlement without the written consent of the Indemnitor (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(c) Direct Claims. Any Action by an Indemnitee on account of a Loss which does not result from a Third Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”) shall be asserted by the Indemnitee giving the Indemnitor reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than 30 days after the Indemnitee becomes aware of such Direct Claim. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnitor of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnitor forfeits rights or defenses or is prejudiced by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnitee 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 Losses that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnitee. The Indemnitor shall have 30 days after its receipt of such notice to respond in writing to such Direct Claim. The Indemnitee shall allow the Indemnitor 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 Indemnitee shall assist the Indemnitor’s investigation by giving such information and assistance (including access to any Transferred Company’s premises and personnel and the right to examine and copy any accounts, documents or records) as the Indemnitor or any of its professional advisors may reasonably request. If the Indemnitor does not so respond within such 30 day period, the Indemnitor shall be deemed to have rejected such claim, in which case the Indemnitee shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to the Indemnitee on the terms and subject to the provisions of this Agreement.

77

(d) Payment of Losses. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary which may be contained in this Agreement or in the Operating Agreement the Seller Group Members and Buyer shall not be required to pay any Losses asserted in any indemnification claim pursuant to Section 10.2 or Section 10.3 of this Agreement, respectively, unless and until such Losses constitute “Mature Losses” (as this term is defined below). Losses constitute “Mature Losses” upon the earlier of (i) the date on which the indemnified party and the indemnifying party shall have arrived at a mutually binding agreement or settlement with respect to the indemnification claim for such Losses or (ii) the date on which a determination with respect to the indemnification claim for such Losses shall have been made in accordance with the dispute resolution process provided in Exhibit D and if such determination is made in litigation of the indemnification claim in accordance with such dispute resolution process, the time in which to appeal the applicable judicial decision has expired.

10.5 Certain Waivers.

(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 10.5(b), each Seller Group Member hereby agrees that it shall not make any claim for indemnification against Buyer, the Transferred Companies or any of their respective Affiliates by reason of the fact that such Seller Group Member is or was a member, stockholder, employee or agent of the Transferred Companies or any of their predecessors or Affiliates or is or was serving at the request of the Transferred Companies or any of their Affiliates as a partner, trustee, employee or agent of another entity (whether such claim is for judgments, damages, penalties, fines, costs, amounts paid in settlement, losses, expenses or otherwise and whether such claim is pursuant to any statute, charter document, by-law, constituent document, agreement or otherwise) with respect to any action, suit, proceeding, complaint, claim or demand brought by any of the Buyer Parties against the Seller Group Members pursuant to this Agreement or applicable Law or otherwise, and each Seller Group Member hereby acknowledges and agrees that it shall not have any claim or right to contribution or indemnity from the Transferred Companies or any of their Affiliates with respect to any amounts paid by it pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise. Effective upon the Closing, each Seller Group Member hereby irrevocably waives, releases and discharges the Transferred Companies and their Affiliates from any and all Liabilities to it of any kind or nature whatsoever, whether in the capacity as a unitholder, stockholder or employee of the Transferred Companies or any of their Affiliates or otherwise (including in respect of any rights of contribution or indemnification), in each case whether absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, known or unknown, and whether arising under any agreement or understanding or otherwise at law or in equity, and each Seller Group Member agrees that it shall not seek to recover any amounts in connection therewith or thereunder from the Transferred Companies or any of their Affiliates. In no event shall the Transferred Companies or any of their Affiliates have any Liability whatsoever to the Seller Group Members for any breaches of the representations, warranties, agreements or covenants of the Transferred Companies hereunder, and in any event the Seller Group Members may not seek contribution from the Transferred Companies or any of their Affiliates in respect of any payments required to be made by the Seller Group Members pursuant to this Agreement. Each Seller Group Member hereby acknowledges and agrees as to itself only that other than as

78

provided for in this Agreement, such Seller Group Member shall have no “look back” or similar rights and in no event shall be entitled to additional consideration with respect to the sale, exchange or cancellation of any of such Seller Group Member’s Membership Interests pursuant to the terms hereof.

(b) The provisions of Section 10.5(a) of this Agreement, and the waivers and releases set forth therein, shall not apply to any of the following: (i) any and all Liabilities of Buyer under this Agreement and the Related Agreements and any and all rights and remedies which the Seller Group Members or any of them may now have or hereafter acquire against Buyer in respect of such Liabilities (including, without limitation, indemnification claims against Buyer pursuant to Section 10.2(b) of this Agreement); (ii) any and all rights and remedies which any Seller Group Member may have under or in respect of the Operating Agreement; (iii) any and all rights and remedies which any Seller Group Member may have under or in respect of the Parent Guaranty; and (iv) any right which any Seller Group Member or any of their Affiliates may have to indemnification pursuant to the bylaws of Arminak & Associates Inc. and/or the Company by reason of the fact that such Seller Group Member or Affiliate is or was a member, stockholder, employee or agent of the Transferred Companies or any of their predecessors or is or was serving at the request of the Transferred Companies or any of their predecessors as a partner, trustee, employee or agent of another entity.

10.6 Manner of Payment.

Except as otherwise provided herein, the payment of any Mature Losses with respect to any indemnification of the Buyer Parties or the Seller Group Members pursuant to this ARTICLE 10 shall be effected by wire transfer of immediately available funds from the Seller Group Members, on a joint and several, or several, basis, as applicable, or Buyer, as the case may be, to an account(s) designated by the applicable Buyer Party or Member Representative, as the case may be, within ten (10) days after the applicable Losses first become Mature Losses. Any such indemnification payments shall include interest at the Applicable Rate calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over 360, from the date any such Mature Loss is suffered or sustained to the date of payment. In connection with the recovery of any Mature Losses to which the Buyer Parties are entitled to receive, the Buyer Parties shall proceed in the following order: (A) first proceed against the funds in the Escrow, (B) second, if at the time any Mature Losses are due and payable to the Buyer Parties (after first proceeding against the funds in Escrow) Buyer is obligated to pay to Seller any purchase price in connection with the exercise of the put and call rights referred to in Section 9.1 of this Agreement, then Buyer shall have the right to set off the amount of such Mature Losses against any such purchase price amounts in the manner set forth in the Operating Agreement, and (C) third then directly against any Seller Group Member. It is understood and agreed that if at the time any Mature Losses are due and payable to the Buyer Parties, the funds in the Escrow have been exhausted or the Escrow no longer exists, and there are no unpaid purchase price amounts payable by Buyer with respect to the put and call rights referred to in Section 9.1 of this Agreement, then Buyer may seek to proceed to recover such Mature Losses directly from any Seller Group Member (as provided in Clause (C), above).

79

10.7 Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments.

All indemnification payments made under this Agreement shall be treated by the parties as an adjustment to the Tax Purchase Price unless otherwise required by Law.

10.8 Effect of Investigation.

The representations, warranties and covenants of the Indemnitor, and the Indemnitee’s right to indemnification with respect thereto, shall not be affected or deemed waived by reason of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnitee (including by any of its Representatives) or by reason of the fact that the Indemnitee or any of its Representatives knew or should have known that any such representation or warranty is, was or might be inaccurate or by reason of the Indemnitee’s waiver of any condition set forth in this Agreement.

10.9 Exclusive Remedies.

Following the Closing, the sole and exclusive remedy for any and all claims for damages arising under, out of, or related to this Agreement (other than claims based upon actual fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful or criminal misconduct), shall be the rights of indemnification set forth in this ARTICLE 10 and any other remedies specifically identified in this Agreement and the Related Agreements, and no Person will have any other entitlement, remedy or recourse for damages (other than damages based upon actual fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful or criminal misconduct), whether in contract, tort or otherwise, it being agreed that all of such other remedies for claims for damages are expressly waived and released by the parties to the fullest extent permitted by Law. The indemnification rights of the Seller Parties and the Buyer Parties in the preceding sentence are independent of, and in addition to, the right to seek specific performance of the covenants contained in ARTICLE 9, which right shall not be affected or diminished hereby.

ARTICLE 11

MISCELLANEOUS

11.1 Amendment and Waiver.

This Agreement may be amended, and any provision of this Agreement may be waived; provided, that any such amendment or waiver will be binding upon the Company, prior to the Closing, and the Seller Group Members only if such amendment or waiver is set forth in a writing executed by the Seller Group Members, and any such amendment or waiver will be binding upon the Company, after the Closing, and Buyer only if such amendment or waiver is set forth in a writing executed by Buyer or the Company, as the case may be. No course of dealing between or among any Persons having any interest in this Agreement shall be deemed effective to modify, amend or discharge any part of this Agreement or any rights or obligations of any Person under or by reason of this Agreement. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provisions, whether or not similar, nor shall any waiver constitute a continuing waiver.

80

11.3 Successors and Assigns.

This Agreement and all of the covenants and agreements contained herein and rights, interests or obligations hereunder, by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto, shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective heirs, successors and assigns of the parties hereto whether so expressed or not, except that neither this Agreement nor any of the covenants and agreements herein or rights, interests or obligations hereunder may be assigned or delegated by any Seller Group Member prior to or after the Closing, or assigned or delegated by the Company prior to the Closing, without the prior written consent of Buyer, but no such assignment by a Seller Group Member or the Company shall relieve the assigning party of any Liability hereunder. Prior to the Closing, Buyer may assign its rights and obligations hereunder (including its right to purchase the Transferred Membership Interests), in whole or in part, to any of its Affiliates without the consent of any of the other parties hereto, but no such assignment shall relieve Buyer of any Liability hereunder. In addition, Buyer may assign its rights and obligations pursuant to this Agreement, including its rights and obligations under the Escrow Agreement, in whole or in part, in connection with any disposition or transfer of all or any portion of the Transferred Companies or their respective businesses in any form of transaction without the consent of any of the other parties hereto, but no such assignment shall relieve Buyer of any Liability hereunder. Buyer and, following the Closing, each of the Transferred Companies may assign any or all of its rights pursuant to this Agreement, and each of the other agreements and instruments contemplated hereby, including its rights to indemnification, to any of its lenders as collateral security, but no such assignment shall relieve Buyer of any Liability hereunder.

11.4 Severability.

Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable Law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable Law, such provision will be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

11.5 Interpretation.

The headings and captions used in this Agreement, in any Schedule or Exhibit hereto, in the table of contents or in any index hereto are for convenience of reference only and do not constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit, characterize or in any way affect any provision of this Agreement or any Schedule or Exhibit hereto, and all provisions of this Agreement and the Schedules and Exhibits hereto shall be enforced and construed as if no caption or heading had been used herein or therein. Any capitalized terms used in any Schedule or Exhibit attached hereto and not otherwise defined therein shall have the meanings set forth in this Agreement. Each defined term used in this Agreement shall have a comparable meaning when used in its plural or singular form. The use of the word “including” herein shall mean “including without limitation” and, unless the context otherwise requires, “neither,” “nor,” “any,” “either” and “or” shall not be exclusive. The parties hereto intend that each representation, warranty and covenant contained herein shall have independent significance. If any party has breached any representation, warranty or covenant contained herein in any respect, the fact that there exists another representation, warranty or covenant relating to the same subject

82

matter (regardless of the relative levels of specificity) which such party has not breached shall not detract from or mitigate the fact that such party is in breach of the first representation, warranty or covenant. The parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement. Any reference to any federal, state, local, or foreign statute or Law shall be deemed also to refer to all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, unless the context requires otherwise. Every predecessor in interest of each of the Transferred Companies shall be deemed to be, and shall be treated as, a Transferred Company and, accordingly, each of the representations in ARTICLE 5 is and shall be true and correct as applied to each such predecessor in interest (specifically including Oldco), in each case determined as though such predecessor in interest were substituted for the applicable Transferred Company in each such representation; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply to the representation in Section 5.20(h).

11.6 No Third-Party Beneficiaries.

Nothing herein expressed or implied is intended or shall be construed to confer upon or give to any Person other than the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns, any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement, such third parties specifically including employees and creditors of the Transferred Companies.

11.7 Complete Agreement.

This Agreement, the Related Agreements, that certain non-disclosure letter agreement dated September 12, 2011 by and between TriMas Corporation and the Company and the agreements and documents referred to herein contain the entire agreement and understanding between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, whether written or oral, relating to such subject matter in any way, including without limitation, the LOI (except as expressly provided herein).

11.8 Electronic Delivery; Counterparts.

This Agreement and any signed agreement or instrument entered into in connection with this Agreement, and any amendments hereto or thereto, may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument. Any such counterpart, to the extent delivered by means of a facsimile machine or by .pdf, .tif, .gif, .peg or similar attachment to electronic mail (any such delivery, an “Electronic Delivery”) shall be treated in all manner and respects as an original executed counterpart and shall be considered to have the same binding legal effect as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person. At the request of any party hereto, each other party hereto or thereto shall re-execute the original form of this Agreement and deliver such form to all other parties. No party hereto shall raise the use of Electronic Delivery to deliver a signature or the fact that any signature or agreement or instrument was transmitted or communicated through the use of Electronic Delivery as a defense to the formation of a contract, and each such party forever waives any such defense, except to the extent such defense relates to lack of authenticity.

83

11.9 Dispute Resolution.

The parties hereby adopt, and agree to submit to, the dispute resolution procedures and the related terms and conditions set forth on Exhibit D.

11.10  Schedules.

Nothing in any schedule attached hereto shall be adequate to disclose an exception to a representation or warranty made in this Agreement unless such schedule reasonably identifies the exception. No exceptions to any representations or warranties disclosed on one schedule shall constitute an exception to any other representations or warranties made in this Agreement unless the exception is disclosed on each such other applicable schedule or cross referenced or incorporated by reference in such other applicable section or schedule. Where a representation and warranty in this Agreement has more than one subsection, subparagraph or subpart, but this Agreement only calls for one Schedule for such representation and warranty (including all subsections, subparagraphs and subparts there), a disclosure in that Schedule shall identify which subsection, subparagraph or subpart that such disclosure applies to; provided, however, disclosures identified with one particular subsection, subparagraph or subpart of a schedule shall be deemed constructively disclosed or listed in all other sections, subsections, subparagraphs and subparts of that schedule if and to the extent it is reasonably apparent on the face of such disclosure that it is applicable to such other sections, subsections, subparagraphs and subparts of that schedule.

11.11  Time Periods.

Unless specified otherwise, any action required hereunder to be taken within a certain number of days shall be taken within that number of calendar days (and not Business Days); provided, however, that if the last day for taking such action falls on a weekend or a holiday in the United States, the period during which such action may be taken shall be automatically extended to the next Business Day.

As provided in Section 2.2(d), each Member shall be entitled to participate in any issuance of additional Units in order to retain their percentage interest in the Company. Subject to the restrictions on issuance set forth herein, the Company may issue authorized but unissued Units at such times and from time to time, to such Persons, in such amounts, at such price and on such other terms and conditions as shall be determined and approved by the Board.

offer in writing, accompanied by a description of the purpose of such offering and intended uses of the proceeds from such offering, (the “Preemptive Rights Notice”) to sell to each Member in respect of its Class A Common Units a portion of such securities equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the sum of the number of Class A Common Units held by such Class A Common Unitholder, by (y) the sum of the total number of Class A Common Units. If all such securities are not subscribed to by Members in writing delivered to the Company within ten business days after the date of delivery of the Preemptive Rights Notice, the unsubscribed equity securities will be reoffered on the terms set forth above one or more times in writing (each, a “Reoffer Notice”) to the Members who subscribed to the maximum number to which they were entitled pursuant to the preceding offering round, and each such Member shall be entitled to purchase a pro rata share of such available securities by so notifying the Company in writing within three business days after the date of delivery of the applicable Reoffer Notice, until all such securities have been subscribed to or no Member desires to subscribe to the remaining offered securities. Each Member shall be entitled to purchase or receive such securities at the most favorable price and on the most favorable terms that such securities are to be offered to any other Person, and the Company may not offer any securities to any Person at a price or on terms more favorable to the offerees thereof than those on which such securities were offered to the Members unless such securities are first offered to the Members at such more favorable price and on such more favorable terms; provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Company is issuing more than one type or class of securities in connection with such issuance, each Member participating in such issuance shall be required to acquire such Member’s pro rata portion (as determined above) of all such types and classes of securities. Such securities specified in the Preemptive Rights Notice and the Reoffer Notice that are not purchased by Members pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.2(d) may be issued and sold by the Company to the offerees thereof (on terms no more favorable to the offerees than the terms offered in such Notices) within 90 days of the date of the Preemptive Rights Notice. Any securities not issued within such 90-day period will be subject to the provisions of this Section 2.2(d) upon subsequent issuance.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Board determines that it should, in the best interests of the Company, issue equity securities that would otherwise be required to be offered under this Section 2.2(d) prior to their issuance, it may issue such equity securities without first complying with the foregoing paragraph; provided that, within thirty (30) days after such issuance, it offers each Member, in respect of its Class A Common Units the opportunity to purchase, on the same terms and at the same price as applicable to such issuance, the number of equity securities that would enable such Member to maintain the same Percentage Interest it had prior to the issuance of equity securities pursuant to this paragraph. If the Company makes any distribution with respect to equity securities issued under this paragraph before the other Members have purchased such equity securities pursuant to this paragraph, then such other Members that purchase such equity securities shall be entitled to a proportionate distribution upon the closing of such purchase as if such equity securities were outstanding at the time of the original distribution.

The Members agree that each Member shall have the right, in its, her or his sole discretion, to assign, on any one or more occasions, all or any portion of its, her or his rights under this Section 2.2(d) to any one or more of its, her or his Affiliates.

(b) For purposes of computing the amount of any item of Company income, gain, loss or deduction to be allocated pursuant to ARTICLE III and to be reflected in the Capital Accounts, the determination, recognition and classification of any such item shall be the same as its determination, recognition and classification for U.S. federal income tax purposes (including any method of depreciation, cost recovery or amortization used for this purpose), provided that:

(ii) Without duplicating any adjustment under Section 2.3(b)(v) or Section 2.3(b)(vi) below, if the Book Value of any Company property is adjusted pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(e) or (f), the amount of such adjustment shall be taken into account as gain or loss from the disposition of such property.

11

(iii) Gain or loss on the sale or other disposition of Company property having a Book Value that differs from its adjusted basis for tax purposes shall be computed by reference to the Book Value of such property.

(iv) Items of depreciation, amortization and other cost recovery deductions with respect to Company property having a Book Value that differs from its adjusted basis for tax purposes shall be computed by reference to the property’s Book Value in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(g).

(v) To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any Company asset pursuant to Code Sections 732(d), 734(b) or 743(b) is required, pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m), to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts, the amount of such adjustment to the Capital Accounts shall be treated as an item of gain (if the adjustment increases the basis of the asset) or loss (if the adjustment decreases such basis).

(vi) Gain or loss of the Company with respect to any property distributed to a Unitholder shall be computed as if the Company had sold such property on the date of such distribution at a price equal to its Fair Market Value at that date.

All Units shall be “securities” governed by Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code. Delaware shall constitute the local law of the Company’s jurisdiction in its capacity as the issuer of the Units. Any certificate evidencing Units shall bear a legend substantially to the following effect:

Section 2.8 Borrowing from Members; Lending to Members; Financing.

(a) Should the Company lack sufficient cash to pay its obligations, the Company shall be authorized to borrow needed funds from Rieke Member or any other Member that agrees to advance all or part of the needed funds to or on behalf of the Company, in each case, as determined by the Board in its sole discretion. A loan obtained from a Member in accordance with this Section 2.8(a) shall constitute a loan from the Member to the Company, and shall be on market terms, including a market rate of interest from the date of the borrowing until the date of repayment, and the borrowed funds shall not be considered a capital contribution for any purpose under this Agreement.

(b) The Company shall be authorized to enter into an arrangement with Rieke Member to provide cash management services, including a daily ‘cash sweep’ of the Company’s accounts and the release of swept cash when and as needed for the operations of the Company, as determined by the Board in its sole discretion. The net cash balance at any time shall be treated as a loan transaction between the Company and Rieke Member, such that if Rieke Member is holding excess cash swept from Company accounts, such amount shall be deemed to constitute a loan from the Company to Rieke Member, which shall be on market terms, including a market rate of interest from the date of the borrowing until the date of repayment, and the borrowed funds shall not be considered a capital distribution to Rieke Member for any purpose under this Agreement. Likewise, if Rieke Member advances cash to the Company in excess of the amounts swept from the Company accounts, such net advances shall be deemed to constitute a loan from Rieke Member to the Company, which loan shall be on market terms, including a market rate of interest from the date of the advance until the date of repayment, and the borrowed funds shall not be considered a capital contribution from Rieke Member for any purpose under this Agreement.

(c) The Board shall also consider alternative financing sources in order for the Company to maintain a debt and equity capital structure that the Board deems appropriate for the Company. In connection therewith, the Board is authorized to attempt to obtain financing proposals from third party institutional lenders to provide non-recourse debt or otherwise to raise funds required to meet the financial obligations of the Company for budget shortfalls and for other capital and operating expenses (to the extent permitted under the operative terms of any loan documents binding on the Company), and to the extent the Board obtains market rate financing proposals from institutional lenders for non-recourse debt, the Board shall consider such proposals, evaluating, among other things, the identity of the proposed lender, the term, interest rate and other material terms of such loan, the risks to the Company and its Members related to such proposed loan and the perceived ability of a prospective lender to close such loan.

(d) For avoidance of doubt, the Company will have the power and shall be authorized to (i) borrow money from banks, other lending institutions, Rieke Member or Affiliates of Rieke Member, (ii) lend money to Rieke Member or its Affiliates, (iii) guaranty loans of Rieke Member or its Affiliates and grant security interests in its assets and assets of its Subsidiaries and Affiliates, and pledge stock and other equity interests in its Subsidiaries and Affiliates, to secure such loans and guaranties, and (iv) enter into an accounts receivable credit

13

facility with Rieke Member or its Affiliates, in each case, at such times and on such terms and conditions as may be determined by the Board in its sole discretion, without requiring approval from any Member provided that all borrowings from the Company all loans to the Company and all accounts receivable credit facility with Rieke Member or its Affiliates are on arms’ length terms.

(e) Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, each of the Members hereby agrees to reasonably cooperate in connection with any debt financing of the Company, Rieke Member or any of its Affiliates to the extent required under Section 9.3 of the Purchase Agreement.

ARTICLE III

DISTRIBUTIONS AND ALLOCATIONS

Section 3.1 Distributions.

(a) Except as otherwise provided herein, prior to January 1, 2017, the Company shall make no Distributions to the Unitholders in respect of their Units (which shall not restrict the Company from lending funds to a Member pursuant to Section 2.8). Except as otherwise provided herein, after January 1, 2017, the Company shall make Distributions of available cash on a quarterly basis to the Unitholders in respect of their Units in the aggregate amount determined by the Board in its reasonable discretion. All distributions pursuant to this Section 3.1(a) shall be made in the order and priority set forth in Section 3.1(e).

(b) Tax Distributions.

(i) The Company shall make tax distributions of cash in respect of each Fiscal Year in the aggregate amount of the Members’ Estimated Tax Liability for such Fiscal Year, to the Members and Former Members as provided in Section 3.1(d). For the avoidance of doubt, no tax distributions shall be made in respect of any period ending on or before the date first set forth above. Any tax distributions with respect to a Fiscal Year pursuant to Section 3.1(d) shall be made in quarterly installments (on or prior to March 1, June 1, September 1 and December 1 of such Fiscal Year) as reasonably determined by the Board to assist Members and Former Members in satisfying their obligations to make estimated tax payments; provided that a true-up tax distribution with respect to such Fiscal Year shall be made pursuant to Section 3.1(d) on or prior to April 1 of the immediately following Fiscal Year (and thereafter, if necessary) to the extent the Members’ Estimated Tax Liability at that time exceeds the aggregate tax distributions previously made with respect to such Fiscal Year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no tax distributions shall be made pursuant to Section 3.1(d) in connection with any Liquidity Event or with respect to any proceeds realized by the Company in connection with any such Liquidity Event.

14

(ii) For purposes of this Section 3.1, the “Members’ Estimated Tax Liability” for any Fiscal Year means the product of (x) the taxable income of the Company (without taking into account any deductions of the Company for any “personal interest” expenses within the meaning of Code Section 163(h) (including, without limitation, interest expenses on indebtedness incurred to pay tax distributions pursuant to this Section 3.1(b)), any “investment interest” expenses of the Company in excess of “investment income” of the Company within the meaning of Code Section 163(d), or any allowable deductions of any Unitholder resulting from adjustments under Code Section 743 (“Section 743 Adjustments”)) for such Fiscal Year, as projected from time to time in good faith by the Board, reduced by any net losses and deductions (i.e., the excess of losses and deductions over income and gains) of the Company for federal income tax purposes for any and all earlier Fiscal Years ending after the date hereof except to the extent (A) any such losses or deductions were previously applied to reduce a tax distribution under Section 3.1(d), (B) the carryforward period for such losses or deductions applicable to an individual Member has expired or (C) the nature of the losses or deductions is such that they would not be deductible against the current year’s taxable income, and (y) the Tax Distribution Rate for such Fiscal Year.

For purposes of Section 3.1, the “Tax Distribution Rate” for any Fiscal Year other than a Regular Tax Fiscal Year shall mean the sum of (I) the highest marginal U.S. federal alternative minimum tax rate (including any surtax) that applies to a U.S. citizen for such Fiscal Year (currently 28%), (II) the highest marginal California personal income tax rate (including any surtax) that applies to a California resident individual for such Fiscal Year (currently 10.3%), (III) the Applicable Percentage of the highest marginal California franchise tax rate (including any surtax) that applies to an S corporation doing business in California for such Fiscal Year (currently 1.08%, which is 72% of 1.5%), and (IV) if for such Fiscal Year the U.S. federal self-employment tax applies to Helga Arminak with respect to the passthrough of income to her from HRA as an S corporation, the average tax rate that when multiplied by the product of HRA’s share of the amount determined pursuant to clause (x) of this Section 3.1(b)(ii) above and a fraction the numerator of which is equal to the number of her outstanding shares of the stock of HRA and the denominator of which is equal to the total number of outstanding shares of the stock of HRA (such fraction is currently 19 / 20) yields the amount of such self-employment tax applicable to her for such Fiscal Year with respect to such income (currently zero) multiplied by the excess of 100% over one-half of the percentage determined pursuant to (I) above for such Fiscal Year (currently  ¹/2 of 28%, or 14%, resulting in an excess equal to 86%).

For purposes of Section 3.1, the “Tax Distribution Rate” for any Regular Tax Fiscal Year shall mean the sum of (I) the highest marginal U.S. federal income tax rate (including any surtax) that applies to a U.S. citizen for such Regular Tax Fiscal Year (currently 35%), (II) the Adjusted Applicable Percentage of the highest marginal California personal income tax rate (including any surtax) that

15

applies to a California resident individual for such Regular Tax Fiscal Year (currently scheduled to be 8.033%, which is 77.992% of 10.3%), (III) the Applicable Percentage of the highest marginal California franchise tax rate (including any surtax) that applies to an S corporation doing business in California for such Regular Tax Fiscal Year (currently 0.975%, which is 65% of 1.5%), and (IV) if for such Regular Tax Fiscal Year the U.S. federal self-employment tax applies to Helga Arminak with respect to the passthrough of income to her from HRA as an S corporation, the average tax rate that when multiplied by the product of HRA’s share of the amount determined pursuant to clause (x) of this Section 3.1(b)(ii) above and a fraction the numerator of which is equal to the number of her outstanding shares of the stock of HRA and the denominator of which is equal to the total number of outstanding shares of the stock of HRA (such fraction is currently 19 / 20) yields the amount of such self-employment tax applicable to her for such Regular Tax Fiscal Year with respect to such income (currently zero) multiplied by the excess of 100% over one-half of the percentage determined pursuant to (I) above for such Regular Tax Fiscal Year (currently  ¹/2 of 35%, or 17.5%, resulting in an excess equal to 82.5%).

For purposes of Section 3.1, “Applicable Percentage” shall mean one hundred percent (100%) minus (i) for any Fiscal Year other than a Regular Tax Fiscal Year, the highest marginal U.S. federal alternative minimum tax rate (including any surtax) that applies to a U.S. citizen for such Fiscal Year (currently 28%, resulting in an Applicable Percentage of 72% for any such Fiscal Year under current law) and (ii) for any Regular Tax Fiscal Year, the highest marginal U.S. federal income tax rate (including any surtax) that applies to a U.S. citizen for such Regular Tax Fiscal Year (scheduled, under current law, to increase to 39.6% for Fiscal Years after 2012, resulting in an Applicable Percentage for any of such Fiscal Years which are Regular Tax Fiscal Years of 60.4%).

For purposes of Section 3.1, “Adjusted Applicable Percentage” for any Fiscal Year means the lesser of: (A) the Applicable Percentage for such Fiscal Year plus the product of such Applicable Percentage multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the percentage of certain itemized deductions subject to disallowance under Code Section 68(a)(1) for such Fiscal Year (which is currently 0% but which, under current law, is scheduled to become 3% for Fiscal Years after 2012) and the denominator of which is the highest marginal California personal income tax rate (including any surtax) that applies to a California resident individual for such Fiscal Year (which rate is currently 10.3%), resulting in such fraction being 3%/10.3%, or the equivalent of 29.126%, for Fiscal Years after 2012 (absent any change in current law), and (B) the Applicable Percentage for such Fiscal Year plus the product of (i) the excess of one hundred percent (100%) over such Applicable Percentage and (ii) the maximum percentage (if any) of California personal income tax which is subject to disallowance as a deduction from federal taxable income under Code Section 68(a)(2) for such Fiscal Year (which, under current law, is scheduled to become 80% for Fiscal Years after 2012); resulting, under current law as scheduled to go into effect for Fiscal Years after 2012, in (A) being 77.992% and (B) being 92.080% and the Adjusted Applicable Percentage therefore being 77.992% (which is the lesser of (A) and (B)) for Fiscal Years after 2012. In no event shall the Adjusted Applicable Percentage exceed 100%.

16

“Regular Tax Fiscal Year” means a Fiscal Year (which solely for purposes of this definition shall mean, in the case of a Fiscal Year of less than 12 months, the calendar year which includes such Fiscal Year) for which Helga Arminak owes federal income tax, but not federal alternative minimum tax. A Fiscal Year shall be irrebuttably presumed to be a Regular Tax Fiscal Year if, within 9  ¹/2 months after the end of such Fiscal Year, Helga Arminak delivers to the Company a written certification from her accountant that she owes (or owed but paid) federal income tax, but not federal alternative minimum tax, for such Fiscal Year and shall be irrebuttably presumed not to be a Regular Tax Fiscal Year otherwise. Quarterly distributions under Section 3.1(b)(i) for any Fiscal Year shall be determined as though such Fiscal Year were not a Regular Tax Fiscal Year, but if such Fiscal Year is, within 9  ¹/2 months after the end of such Fiscal Year, determined to be a Regular Tax Fiscal Year (by reason of Helga Arminak’s timely delivery of a certification in accordance with the preceding sentence), then a true-up distribution shall be made in accordance with the proviso of the penultimate sentence of Section 3.1(b)(i).

(c) Withholding Taxes.

(i) Any amount paid by the Company for or with respect to any Unitholder on account of any withholding tax or other tax payable with respect to the income, profits or distributions by the Company pursuant to the Code or the Treasury Regulations thereunder, or any state, local or non U.S. statute, regulation or ordinance requiring such payment (a “Withholding Tax Act”) shall be treated as a distribution to such Unitholder for all purposes of this Agreement, consistent with the character or source of the income, profits or cash which gave rise to the payment or withholding obligation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the amount required to be remitted by the Company under any Withholding Tax Act is in excess of the amount then otherwise distributable to such Unitholder, the excess shall not constitute a distribution for purposes of this Agreement, but shall constitute a loan from the Company to such Unitholder (a “Tax Payment Loan”) that shall be payable upon demand and shall bear interest, from the date that the Company makes the payment to the relevant taxing authority, at the London InterBank Offered Rate (as published on the date that such loans are made) plus 200 basis points, compounded monthly (the “Loan Rate”). So long as any Tax Payment Loan or the interest thereon remains unpaid, the Company shall make future distributions due to such Unitholder under this Agreement by applying the amount of any such distribution first to the payment of any unpaid interest on all Tax Payment Loans of such Member and then to the repayment of the principal of all Tax Payment Loans of such Member. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.1(c)(i), to the extent the amount required to be remitted by the Company under any Withholding Tax Act with respect to any of the A&A Members is in excess of the amount then otherwise distributable to such A&A Member, (x) the excess shall constitute a

17

distribution and not a loan, and (y) a cash distribution shall be made to all other Members in such amounts as will cause the total amount of the distribution (including the deemed distribution of the excess) to have been made in the order and priority set forth in Section 3.1(e) (and, to the extent the Company has insufficient funds to make such distribution to the other Members under this clause (y), the amount owed to them shall be a debt of the Company which bears interest at the Loan Rate).

(ii) The Board shall take all actions necessary to enable the Company to comply with the provisions of any Withholding Tax Act applicable to the Company and to carry out the provisions of this Section 3.1(c)(ii).

(d) Sharing of Tax Distributions. Each tax distribution with respect to a Fiscal Year pursuant to this Section 3.1(d) shall be shared among the Members and Former Members in proportion to the relative amounts of taxable income of the Company allocated to each Member and each Former Member for such Fiscal Year (without taking into account any deductions for the Company for any interest expenses described in the first parenthetical in Section 3.1(b)(ii), or any Section 743 Adjustments attributable to particular Unitholders). For the avoidance of doubt, distributions to Unitholders under this Section 3.1(d) shall be treated as an advance of distributions to which such Unitholders are entitled under Section 3.1(a) and Section 3.1(e) or Section 6.2 and shall be offset against and reduce dollar-for-dollar any such future distributions.

(e) Priority of Distributions. Except as provided in Section 3.1(b), all Distributions under this Section 3.1, including in connection with any (a) liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company or (b) Change of Control Transaction (each of the events described in clauses (a) and (b) shall be referred to herein as a “Liquidity Event”), shall be made in immediately available funds to the Unitholders ratably among such Unitholders based upon the number of outstanding Units held by each such Unitholder immediately prior to such Distribution.

(f) Certain Limitations. Except as otherwise provided by the Parent Guaranty, (i) the Unitholders shall look solely to the assets of the Company for any Distributions, whether liquidating Distributions or otherwise, and (ii) if the assets of the Company remaining after the payment or discharge, or the provision for payment or discharge, of the debts, obligations, and other liabilities of the Company are insufficient to make any Distributions, no Unitholder shall have any recourse against the separate assets of any other Unitholder.

(g) Erroneous Distributions. If the Company has, pursuant to any clear and manifest accounting or similar error, paid any Unitholder an amount in excess of the amount to which it is entitled pursuant to this ARTICLE III, such Unitholder shall reimburse the Company to the extent of such excess, without interest, within 30 days after demand by the Company.

(h) Distributions in Kind. For the avoidance of doubt, any distribution in kind shall, for purposes of this ARTICLE III and ARTICLE VI, be treated as a distribution in an amount equal to the then Fair Market Value of the distributed asset(s).

18

Section 3.2 Capital Accounting Allocations.

(a) After giving effect to the special allocations in Section 3.2(b)-(g) below, any remaining Profits and Losses shall be allocated among the Unitholders, and credited or debited to their respective Capital Accounts, in such a manner that the balance of each Unitholder’s Capital Account at the end of any Taxable Year (increased by such Unitholder’s “share of Company Minimum Gain,” and “share of partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain” as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2) would equal the amount of cash that such Unitholder would receive if (i) the Company were to have sold all of its property for an amount of cash equal to the Book Value of such property (determined, for the avoidance of doubt, without adjustment for the deemed liquidation), (ii) all of such cash were used first to pay liabilities of the Company (limited, in the case of nonrecourse liabilities, to the Book Value of the assets subject to such liabilities), and (iii) any remaining cash were to have been distributed in liquidation in accordance with Section 3.1(e) at the end of such Taxable Year.

(b) Any nonrecourse deductions (as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(b)(1)) shall be allocated to the holders of Class A Common Units (ratably among such Unitholders based upon the respective number of such Class A Common Units held by each such Unitholder).

(c) If there is a net decrease in Company Minimum Gain during any Taxable Year, each Unitholder shall be specially allocated Profits for such Taxable Year (and, if necessary, subsequent Taxable Years) in an amount equal to such Unitholder’s share of the net decrease in Company Minimum Gain, determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(g). The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(f)(6). This Section 3.2(c) is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirement in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(f) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(d) Deductions and Losses attributable to partner nonrecourse debt (as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(b)(4)) shall be allocated in the manner required by Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i).

(e) If there is a net decrease during any Taxable Year in partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain (as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(3)), Profits for such Taxable Year (and, if necessary, subsequent Taxable Years) shall be allocated to the Unitholders in the amounts and of such character as determined according to, and subject to the exceptions contained in, Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4). This Section 3.2(e) is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirement in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(f) If any Unitholder unexpectedly receives an adjustment, allocation or distribution described in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6) that creates or increases an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit as of the end of any Taxable Year, then Profits (and, if necessary, gross income) for such Taxable Year shall be allocated to such Unitholder in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate such Adjusted Capital Account Deficit as quickly as possible. This Section 3.2(f) is intended to be a qualified income offset provision as described in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) and shall be interpreted in a manner consistent therewith.

19

(g) Profits and Losses described in Section 2.3(b)(v) shall be allocated in a manner consistent with the manner that the adjustments to the Capital Accounts are required to be made pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m).

Section 3.3 Tax Allocations.

(a) Except as provided below in this Section 3.3, the income, gains, losses, deductions and credits of the Company will be allocated, for U.S. federal, state and local income tax purposes, among the Unitholders in accordance with the allocation of such income, gains, losses, deductions and credits among the Unitholders for computing their Capital Accounts; provided that if any such allocation is not permitted by the Code or other applicable law, the Company’s subsequent income, gains, losses, deductions and credits will be allocated among the Unitholders so as to reflect as nearly as possible the allocation set forth herein in computing their Capital Accounts.

(b) Items of Company taxable income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to any property contributed to the capital of the Company shall be allocated among the Unitholders in accordance with Code Section 704(c) so as to take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such property to the Company for federal income tax purposes and its Book Value using a permissible method chosen by the Board.

(c) If the Book Value of any Company asset is adjusted pursuant to the requirements of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f), subsequent allocations of items of taxable income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to such asset shall take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such asset for federal income tax purposes and its Book Value in the same manner as under Code Section 704(c) using a permissible method chosen by the Board.

(d) Allocations of tax credits, tax credit recapture, and any items related thereto shall be allocated to the Unitholders according to their interests in such items as determined by the Board taking into account the principles of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(4)(ii) or any other applicable law.

(e) Allocations pursuant to this Section 3.3 are solely for purposes of U.S. federal, state and local income taxes and shall not affect, or in any way be taken into account in computing, any Unitholder’s Capital Account or share of Profits, Losses, Distributions or other Company items pursuant to any provision of this Agreement.

(f) The Members acknowledge and agree that, by reason of Rieke Member’s purchase of its Units from HRA pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company terminated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes under Code Section 708(b)(1)(B), and the Company’s taxable year closed, on the Closing Date under the Purchase Agreement and the Company constitutes a new partnership for federal income tax purposes, with a new taxable year commencing, on the day after such Closing Date. In the Purchase Agreement, the parties agreed that on its federal income tax return for the taxable year ending on such Closing Date

20

(immediately prior to the effective date of this Agreement), the Company shall make an election under Code Sections 743 and 754 with respect to Rieke Member’s purchase of its Units from HRA. The Members expect that the federal income tax benefits to Rieke Member of such election by the terminated tax partnership will apply with respect to the new tax partnership irrespective of whether the new tax partnership makes an election under Code Sections 743 and 754.

ARTICLE IV

MANAGEMENT

Section 4.1 Authority of Board.

Except as otherwise provided herein, (i) the Board shall conduct, direct and exercise full control over all activities of the Company, (ii) all management powers over the business and affairs of the Company shall be vested in the Board and (iii) the Board shall have the power to bind or take any action on behalf of the Company, or to exercise any rights and powers (including the rights and powers to take certain actions, give or withhold certain consents or approvals, or make certain determinations, opinions, judgments, or other decisions) granted to the Company under this Agreement, or any other agreement, instrument, or other document to which the Company is a party or by virtue of its holding the equity interests of any Subsidiary thereof. Unless delegated such power in accordance with Section 4.5, no member of the Board in his or her individual capacity shall do any act that would be (or could be construed as) binding on the Company, or make any expenditures on behalf of the Company. The Board will prepare an Annual Budget for the Company’s Subsidiaries, will endeavor to receive periodic reports from the management of the Company’s Subsidiaries on a periodic basis, and the Board members are expected to actively communicate and participate in all matters before the Board.

Section 4.2 Composition of the Board.

(a) The Board initially shall be comprised of three (3) members: (i) one member designated by the A&A Members, and (ii) two members designated by the Rieke Member. If the A&A Members hold less than 10% of the total Units outstanding at any time, then the A&A Members shall no longer be entitled to designate a member to the Board and the Rieke Member shall be entitled to designate all three members to the Board.

(b) Initially, the Board member designated by the A&A Members will be Helga Arminak, and the Board members designated by the Rieke Member will be Lynn Brooks and Josh Sherbin.

(c) The composition of the board of directors or managers (and board observers) of Yuyao and each other Subsidiary of the Company (each, a “Sub Board”) shall be identical to the Board, unless the Board determines that to comply with applicable government regulations, a Sub Board must be comprised of different membership.

21

(d) So long as the A&A Members are entitled to designate a Board member, such Board member shall be entitled to be a member of any committee formed by the Board or a Sub Board.

(e) The removal from the Board or a Sub Board (with or without cause) of any Board member designated hereunder shall be upon the appointing party’s written request, but only upon such written request and under no other circumstances; provided, however, that the Rieke Member may remove any Board member designated by the A&A Members if the A&A Members then hold less than 10% of the total Units outstanding

(f) In the event that any Person ceases to serve as a member of the Board or any Sub Board during such member’s term of office, the resulting vacancy on the Board or any Sub Board shall be filled by the party that designated the Board member whose leaving created such vacancy, as provided hereunder.

(g) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.2 to the contrary, in the event that any Person’s membership on the Board or the Sub Board causes any regulatory issues or is a cause of concern to any regulatory body, then such Person shall be removed and a replacement member of the Board will be appointed by the designating Member.

(h) The Company shall pay, or shall cause its Subsidiaries to pay, the reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred by each member of the Board in connection with such member’s service on the Board, including, without limitation, attending any meeting of the Board or any committee thereof or any meeting of a Sub Board or any committee thereof. Except as otherwise provided in the immediately preceding sentence or elsewhere in this Agreement, the members of the Board shall not be compensated for their services as members of the Board.

Section 4.3 Proxies.

A Representative entitled to vote may vote at a meeting of the Board or any committee thereof either in person or by proxy executed in writing by such Representative. An email or similar transmission by the Representative, or a photographic, facsimile or similar reproduction of a writing executed by the Representative shall (if stated thereon) be treated as a proxy executed in writing for purposes of this Section 4.3. Proxies for use at any meeting of the Board or a Sub Board or any committee thereof or in connection with the taking of any action by written consent shall be filed with the Board or that Sub Board, before or at the time of the meeting or execution of the written consent, as the case may be. All proxies shall be received and taken charge of and all ballots shall be received and canvassed by the majority of the Board or a Sub Board who shall decide all questions concerning the qualification of voters, the validity of the proxies and the acceptance or rejection of votes. No proxy shall be valid after eleven months from the date of its execution unless otherwise provided in the proxy. A proxy shall be revocable unless the proxy form conspicuously states that the proxy is irrevocable and the proxy is coupled with an interest. Should a proxy designate two or more Persons to act as proxies, unless that instrument shall provide to the contrary, a majority of such Persons present at any meeting at which their powers thereunder are to be exercised shall have and may exercise all the powers of voting or giving consents thereby conferred, or if only one be present, then such powers may be exercised by that one; or, if an even number attend and a majority do not agree on any particular issue, the Company shall not be required to recognize such proxy with respect to such issue if such proxy does not specify how the votes that are the subject of such proxy are to be voted with respect to such issue.

22

Section 4.4 Meetings and Consent Rights, etc.

(a) Actions of the Board, any Sub Board or any Committees. Meetings of the Board or any Sub Board and any committee thereof shall be held at the principal office of the Company or at such other place as may be determined by the Board or that Sub Board or such committee. Regular meetings of the Board or any Sub Board shall be held on such dates and at such times as shall be determined by the Board or that Sub Board. Special meetings of the Board or any Sub Board or any committee may be called by any member of the Board (or, in the case of a special meeting of any committee of the Board or any Sub Board, by any member thereof) on at least two (2) business days prior written notice to the other members of the Board (or Board Committee or Sub Board), which notice shall state the purpose or purposes for which such meeting is being called. In the event that the a Board member determines in good faith that a dispute exists regarding the Board’s compliance with the terms set forth in Section 4.4(e), or (f), a special meeting of the Board may be called by such Board member on at least two (2) business days prior written notice to the other Board members, which notice shall state the purpose or purposes for which such meeting is being called and identify the transaction or transactions which are being challenged. In addition, in the event that the Company’s President determines in good faith that a significant operational issue affecting the Company’s business exists, a special meeting of the Board may be called by such officer on at least two (2) business days prior written notice to the Board members, which notice shall state the purpose or purposes for which such meeting is being called and identify the issue or issues which exist. Subject to the next sentence, the actions taken by the Board or any Sub Board or any committee at any meeting (as opposed to by written consent), however called and noticed, shall be as valid as though taken at a meeting duly held after regular call and notice if (but not until), either before, at or after the meeting, the Representative as to whom it was improperly held signs a written waiver of notice or a consent to the holding of such meeting or an approval of the minutes thereof. The actions by the Board or any Sub Board or any committee thereof may be taken by vote of the Board or that Sub Board or any committee at a meeting of the members thereof. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the actions by the Board or any Sub Board or any committee thereof may be taken by written consent (without a meeting and without a vote) so long as such consent is signed by all members of the applicable Board or Sub Board or committee. A meeting of the Board or any Sub Board or any committee may be held by conference telephone or similar communications equipment by means of which all individuals participating in the meeting can be heard.

(b) Board Action. Each Board member shall have one vote on all matters submitted to the Board or any Sub Board or any committee thereof (whether the consideration of such matter is taken at a meeting, by written consent or otherwise). In evaluating whether to give any approval or consent pursuant to this Section 4.4(b) or in taking any action otherwise in connection herewith, each Board member shall not be required to take into account any fiduciary or other duties or responsibilities to other Unitholders or any other Person.

23

(c) Board Consent. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall take or agree to take any of the following actions unless, said decisions or actions on the part of any of the Company and its Subsidiaries have been approved in advance in writing by the unanimous vote of the Board members; provided, however, that after Helga Arminak is no longer employed by the Company, the decisions or actions in clauses (viii) and (ix) below shall only require a majority vote of the Board members:

(i) any redemption by the Company of any Units at greater than Fair Market Value;

(ii) any action to liquidate or dissolve the Company;

(iii) change or exit the principal business line of the Company;

(iv) a merger, consolidation, or other similar transaction involving the Company;

(v) acquire any other Person (whether through the acquisition of all or substantially all of the assets of a Person, the acquisition of a controlling equity interest in a Person, a merger with another Person or otherwise);

(vi) allow any Person (other than the Company) to use or license other than on an arms’ length basis the Company name or the Company’s intellectual property

(vii) take any action that would cause the Company to be characterized as an entity other than a partnership for federal income tax purposes;

(viii) allow any Person (other than the Company) to use or license on an arms’ length basis the Company name or the Company’s intellectual property; and

(ix) relocate the Company headquarters to a location that is more than fifteen (15) miles from the current principal office of the Company.

(d) Committee Actions. Committees shall not be authorized or permitted to take any action that requires unanimous Board consent, as specified in Section 4.4(c).

(e) Affiliate Transactions. From and after the date hereof, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary shall take any action or enter into any transaction, agreement or arrangement (including, any series of related transactions, agreements, arrangements or actions) in excess of $10,000 with any partner, member, stockholder, manager, officer or director of the Company or any Subsidiary, or any relative or Affiliate (including such Affiliate’s partners, members, stockholders, managers, officers or directors) of any of the foregoing other than (A) as

24

expressly contemplated by this Agreement or any other agreement expressly contemplated hereby, including the Purchase Agreement, and (B) (x) for payment of salaries and bonuses to employees in the normal course of business, (y) reimbursement to employees for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with services rendered, and (z) for other standard employee benefits made generally available to other employees; provided that the Company Group may enter into and perform the transactions (in accordance with the terms thereof, as in effect on the date hereof) required under the agreements specified on Schedule 4.4(e) hereto, so long as (i) the terms of such transaction are no less favorable in any material respect than what could reasonably be expected to be obtained from an unaffiliated party using commercially reasonable efforts, and (ii) such transaction has been approved at a meeting of the Board in which at least two (2) business days prior written notice is provided to each of the Board members in accordance with Section 4.4(a); provided, further, that the Company Group may enter into and perform transactions with Rieke Member and its Affiliates other than members of the Company Group (collectively, the “Rieke Group”), so long as (1) any such transactions consisting of sales by the Company Group to the Rieke Group are priced at the Company Group’s cost of sales determined in accordance with GAAP, based either on the third party manufacturing cost or, for product manufactured internally, standard costs as described below in the definition of “Intercompany Profit” (as defined below), plus a mark-up equal to 50% of the Intercompany Profit that the Rieke Group earns on the sale of the applicable products to its customers, and (2) any such transactions consisting of purchases by the Company Group from the Rieke Group are priced at the Rieke Group’s cost of sales determined in accordance with GAAP, based either on the third party manufacturing cost or, for product manufactured internally, standard costs as described below in the definition of “Intercompany Profit,” and consistent with past practice plus a mark-up equal to 50% of the Intercompany Profit (defined below) that the Company Group earns on the sale of the applicable products to its customers. For purposes of this Section 4.4(e), the term “Intercompany Profit” with respect to products purchased from a third-party manufacturer shall mean, the excess of the selling price (net of discounts and rebates) to the ultimate customer less the sum of (a) the cost of sales for the product acquired from the third party manufacturer, as determined in accordance with GAAP and consistent with past practice, (b) customs, duties and import/export taxes, as applicable, (c) royalties related to such products, and (d) the freight costs incurred, but only to the extent not paid by the customer, to ship the product from the third party manufacturer either to the Rieke Group’s or the Company Group’s warehouse, as applicable, or directly to the ultimate customer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the term “Intercompany Profit” with respect to product manufactured by either the Rieke Group or the Company Group shall mean the excess of the selling price (net of discounts and rebates) to the ultimate customer less the sum of (a) the manufacturer’s variable cost of sales, based on internal standard costs adjusted quarterly, as determined in accordance with GAAP and consistent with past practice, (b) customs, duties and import/export taxes, as applicable, (c) royalties related to such products, and (d) the freight costs incurred, but only to the extent not paid by the customer, to ship the product from the manufacturing facility either to Rieke Group’s or the Company Group’s warehouse, as applicable, or directly to the ultimate customer.

For the avoidance of doubt, over the term of the Put/Call Period, the Company Group and the Rieke Group will each continue to record sales to their existing customers listed on the Existing Customer List posted to the Dataroom at Index #7.8 (the “Existing Customers”) and their Independently Developed New Customers (as defined below) consistent with past practice.

25

The intercompany pricing provisions detailed above shall apply with respect to all intercompany transactions between the Company Group and Rieke Group, including additional sales to Existing Customers, as well as sales to new customers (collectively, “Incremental Sales”) whereby Company Group supplies products to Rieke Group on one hand, or Rieke Group supplies products to Company Group on the other hand, for incremental sales to the ultimate customer; provided, however, (A) in the event the manufacturing of a Company Group product is moved from a third-party manufacturer of the Company Group or a Company Group manufacturer to a third-party manufacturer of the Rieke Group or a Rieke Group manufacturer (a “Company Excluded Product”), 100% of the Intercompany Profit from the sales (net of discounts and rebates) of any Company Excluded Product shall be allocated to the Company Group (using a cost of sales for such Company Excluded Product equal to the lower of (i) the Company Group’s third party manufacturer’s invoiced costs or the Company Group manufacturer’s cost of sales for the Company Excluded Product, as determined in accordance with GAAP and consistent with past practice, and including in either case, (a) customs, duties and import/export taxes, as applicable, (b) royalties related to such products, and (c) the freight costs incurred, but only to the extent not paid by the customer, to ship the product directly to the ultimate customer, or (ii) the Rieke Group’s third party manufacturer’s invoiced costs or the Rieke Group manufacturer’s variable cost of sales for the Company Excluded Product, based on internal standard costs adjusted quarterly, as determined in accordance with GAAP and consistent with past practice, and including in either case, (a) customs, duties and import/export taxes, as applicable, (b) royalties related to such products, and (c) the freight costs incurred, but only to the extent not paid by the customer, to ship the product directly to the ultimate customer), and such sales shall not be considered Incremental Sales, and (B) in the event the manufacturing of a Rieke Group product is moved from a third-party manufacturer of the Rieke Group or a Rieke Group manufacturer to a third-party manufacturer of the Company Group or a Company Group manufacturer (a “Rieke Excluded Product”), 100% of the Intercompany Profit from the sales (net of discounts and rebates) of any Rieke Excluded Product shall be allocated to the Rieke Group (using a cost of sales for such Rieke Excluded Product at the lower of (i) the Rieke Group’s third party manufacturer’s invoiced costs or the Rieke Group manufacturer’s cost of sales for the Rieke Excluded Product, as determined in accordance with GAAP and consistent with past practice, and including in either case, (a) customs, duties and import/export taxes, as applicable, (b) royalties related to such products, and (c) the freight costs incurred, but only to the extent not paid by the customer, to ship the product directly to the ultimate customer, or (ii) the Company Group’s third party manufacturer’s invoiced costs or the Company Group manufacturer’s variable cost of sales for the Rieke Excluded Product, based on internal standard costs adjusted quarterly, as determined in accordance with GAAP and consistent with past practice, and including in either case, (a) customs, duties and import/export taxes, as applicable, (b) royalties related to such products, and (c) the freight costs incurred, but only to the extent not paid by the customer, to ship the product directly to the ultimate customer,), and such sales shall not be considered Incremental Sales. The foregoing procedure regarding Company Excluded Products and Rieke Excluded Products may be modified upon the written consent of the A&A Representative and the Rieke Member.

The parties hereto agree that during the Put/Call Period, neither the Company Group nor the Rieke Group will sell its products directly to the other party’s Existing Customers or the other party’s Independently Developed New Customers but will instead sell to such customers through an intercompany transaction and such sales (except for Excluded Products) shall be

26

treated as Incremental Sales as described above and sales of Excluded Products shall be treated as described above. “Independently Developed New Customers” shall be customers of either the Company Group or the Rieke Group, respectively, other than Existing Customers or Jointly Developed New Customers (as defined below). “Jointly Developed New Customers” shall be customers of either the Company Group or the Rieke Group, respectively, other than their Existing Customers, who are legitimately developed by joint customer call(s) by representatives of both the Company Group and the Rieke Group and who have been identified and documented in writing as such before the joint customer call(s). For each sale to a Jointly Developed New Customer directly by either the Company Group or the Rieke Group (and which sale is not an Incremental Sale covered above), the Intercompany Profit related to such sale shall be allocated 50% to the Company Group and 50% to the Rieke Group.

For purposes of maximizing overall profits if a customer opportunity occurs where an exception to the above terms is necessary, both the A&A Members and the Rieke Member must mutually agree in advance to the exception and the terms thereof, with appropriate written documentation to substantiate the exception and its terms.

(f) Notice Prior to Insolvency Event. At least five days prior to commencing or otherwise initiating any Insolvency Event, the Board shall call a special meeting of the Board (in which at least two (2) business days prior notice shall be provided to all members of the Board in accordance with Section 4.4(a)), in which the Board shall discuss and approve the commencement of such Insolvency Event. For the purposes of this Section 4.4, “Insolvency Event” means (i) any filing to dissolve or liquidate the Company or any material Subsidiary, or (ii) filing a voluntary petition or otherwise initiating proceedings to have the Company or any material Subsidiary adjudicated insolvent, or seeking an order for relief of the Company as a debtor under the United States Bankruptcy Code; filing any petition seeking any composition, reorganization, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution or similar relief under the present or any future federal bankruptcy laws or any other present or future applicable federal, state or other statute or law relative to bankruptcy, insolvency, or other relief for debtors with respect to the Company or any material Subsidiary seeking the appointment of any trustee, receiver, conservator, assignee, sequestrator, custodian, liquidator (or other similar official) of the Company or of all or any substantial part of the assets of the Company or any material Subsidiary; making any general assignment for the benefit of creditors of the Company or any material Subsidiary; admitting in writing the inability of the Company or any material Subsidiary to pay its debts generally as they become due; or declaring or effecting a moratorium on the debts of the Company or any material Subsidiary or taking any action in furtherance of any of the above proscribed actions.

(g) Real Estate Restrictions. Absent the prior written Approval of the Rieke Member, the Company may not, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries not to, directly or indirectly through any interest in any entity engaging in any such activities, acquire any interest in any real estate, enter into any lease in respect of any real estate or enter into any option in respect of any of the foregoing, or modify any existing real estate lease or option of the Company Group in respect thereof.

27

Section 4.5 Delegation of Authority.

The Board may, from time to time, delegate to one or more Persons (including any member of the Board and including through the creation and establishment of one or more other committees) such authority and duties as the Board may deem advisable. Any delegation pursuant to this Section 4.5 may be revoked at any time by the Board in its sole discretion. No such delegation may grant to one or more Persons the ability to take any action that requires unanimous Board consent in accordance with Section 4.4(c) without first obtaining such approval.

Section 4.6 Purchase of Units.

Subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, the Board may cause the Company to purchase or otherwise acquire Units, or may purchase or otherwise acquire Units on behalf of the Company; provided that this provision shall not in and of itself obligate any Unitholder to sell any Units to the Company. As long as any Units are owned by or on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary, such Units will not be considered outstanding for any purpose (and may not be voted).

Section 4.7 Limitation of Liability.

(a) Except as otherwise provided herein or in any agreement entered into by such Person and the Company, no Person or any of such Person’s Affiliates shall be liable to the Company or to any Unitholder for any act or omission performed or omitted by such Person in his or her capacity as an officer of the Company or a member of the Board or a Board committee taken in good faith, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law; provided that, such limitation of liability shall not apply to the extent the act or omission was attributable to such Person’s willful misconduct or knowing violation of law or for any breaches of any representations, warranties or covenants by such Person or any of such Person’s Affiliates contained herein or in any other agreement with the Company. The Board may exercise any of the powers granted to it by this Agreement and perform any of the duties imposed upon it hereunder either directly or by or through its agents, and no Board member or any of such Board member’s Affiliates shall be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any such agent appointed by the Board (so long as such agent was selected in good faith and with reasonable care). The Board shall be entitled to rely upon the advice of legal counsel, independent public accountants and other experts selected in good faith and with reasonable care, including financial advisors, and any act of or failure to act by the Board in good faith reliance on such advice shall in no event subject the Board or any member thereof to liability to the Company or any Unitholder.

(b) Whenever this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated herein provides that the Board shall act in a manner which is, or provide terms which are, “fair” or “reasonable” to the Company or any Unitholder, the Board shall determine such appropriate action or provide such terms considering, in each case, the relative interests of each party to such agreement, transaction or situation and the benefits and burdens relating to such interests, any customary or accepted industry practices and such other matters as the Board shall consider appropriate.

28

(c) Whenever in this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated herein, the Board is permitted or required to take any action or to make a decision in its “sole discretion” or “discretion,” with “complete discretion” or under a grant of similar authority or latitude, each Board member shall be entitled to consider such interests and factors as he or she desires. The resolution, action or terms so made, taken or provided by the Board shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated herein or impose liability upon the Board, any member thereof or any of such member’s Affiliates.

(d) To the extent that any Member has, at law or in equity, duties (including without limitation, fiduciary duties) to the Company, subject to the terms of this Agreement, such Member, acting in accordance with this Agreement, shall not be liable to the Company, any other Member or any other Person for his/her/its good faith reliance on the provisions of this Agreement. The provisions of this Agreement, to the extent that they restrict the duties of any Member otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed to by all parties hereto to replace such other duties to the greatest extent permitted under applicable law. Accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted by the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act, each Member hereby absolutely and irrevocably waives any and all claims, actions, causes of action, loss, cost, damage and expense, including without limitation, any and all attorneys’ fees and other costs of enforcement arising out of or in connection with any breach of any fiduciary duty by any Member in the nature of actions taken or omitted by any such Member with respect to the Company that are in compliance with this Agreement, which actions or omissions would otherwise constitute the breach of any fiduciary duty owed to the Members. It is the express intent of each Member that each Member shall be and hereby is relieved of any and all fiduciary duties which might otherwise arise out of or in connection with this Agreement or the relationship(s) created or evidenced hereby or thereby.

Section 4.8 Indemnification of Members, Board members, Officers, and Others.

(a) The Company hereby agrees, and agrees to cause each Subsidiary, to indemnify and hold harmless any Person (each, an “Indemnified Person”) to the fullest extent permitted under the Act, as the same now exists or may hereafter be amended, substituted or replaced (but, in the case of any such amendment, substitution or replacement only to the extent that such amendment, substitution or replacement permits the Company or such Subsidiary to provide broader indemnification rights than the Company or such Subsidiary is providing immediately prior to such amendment), against all expenses, liabilities and losses (including attorney fees, judgments, fines, excise taxes or penalties) incurred or suffered by such Person (or one or more of such Person’s Affiliates) by reason of the fact that such Person is or was a Member or is or was serving as a Board member or officer of the Company or Subsidiary (and any Person that is or was serving as an employee or agent of the Company or Subsidiary or is or was serving at the request of the Company or Subsidiary as a representative, officer, director, Board member, principal, member, employee or agent of another partnership, corporation, joint venture, limited liability company, trust or other enterprise); provided that no Indemnified Person shall be indemnified pursuant to this Section 4.8 for any expenses, liabilities and losses suffered that are attributable to the Purchase Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby, or such Indemnified Person’s or its Affiliates’ willful misconduct or knowing violation of law, or for any breaches of any representations, warranties or covenants by such Indemnified Person or its Affiliates contained herein or in any other agreement with the Company or such Subsidiary.

29

Expenses, including attorney fees, incurred by any such Indemnified Person in defending a proceeding shall to the extent of available funds be paid by the Company or such Subsidiary in advance of the final disposition of such proceeding, including any appeal therefrom, upon receipt of an undertaking reasonably satisfactory to the Board by or on behalf of such Indemnified Person to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such Indemnified Person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company or such Subsidiary.

(b) The right to indemnification and the advancement of expenses conferred in this Section 4.8 shall not be exclusive of any other right which any Person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, agreement, by-law, vote of the Board or otherwise.

(c) The Company Group may maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect any Indemnified Person against any expense, liability or loss described in Section 4.8(a) above whether or not the Company or such Subsidiary would have the power to indemnify such Indemnified Person against such expense, liability or loss under the provisions of this Section 4.8.

(d) The Company shall at all times maintain professional liability insurance at its expense providing coverage of at least $2,000,000 per claim.

(e) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, including in this Section 4.8, any indemnity by the Company or its Subsidiaries relating to the matters covered in this Section 4.8 shall be provided out of and to the extent of Company or such Subsidiaries’ assets only and no Unitholder (unless such Unitholder otherwise agrees in writing or is found in a final decision by a court of competent jurisdiction to have personal liability on account thereof) shall have personal liability on account thereof or shall be required to make additional Capital Contributions to help satisfy such indemnity of the Company or any Subsidiary.

(f) If this Section 4.8 or any portion hereof shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the Company or such Subsidiary shall nevertheless indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person pursuant to this Section 4.8 to the fullest extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Section 4.8 that shall not have been invalidated and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

(g) The obligations of the Company Group under this Section 4.8 shall be interpreted without regard to any other indemnification obligations from which the Indemnified Person may benefit (any other Person that provides any such other indemnity of any Indemnified Person is hereinafter referred to as an “Other Indemnitor”). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company hereby agrees on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries:

(i) that the Company or the applicable Subsidiary shall be the indemnitor of first resort (i.e., its obligations to the Indemnified Person are primary and any obligation of any Other Indemnitor to advance expenses or to provide indemnification for the same expenses or liabilities incurred by the Indemnified Person are secondary);

30

(ii) that it will not assert that the Indemnified Person must seek expense advancement or reimbursement, or indemnification, from any Other Indemnitor before the Company or Subsidiary must perform any of its expense advancement, reimbursement or indemnification obligations hereunder;

(iii) that the Company or Subsidiary shall be required to advance the full amount of expenses incurred by the Indemnified Person and shall be liable for the full amount of all expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement by or on behalf of the Indemnified Person to the extent legally permitted and as required hereby, without regard to any rights that the Indemnified Person may have against any Other Indemnitor;

(iv) that the Company Group hereby irrevocably waives, relinquishes and releases each Other Indemnitor from any and all claims against such Other Indemnitor for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect thereof;

(v) that no payment by any Other Indemnitor shall affect the foregoing, and each Other Indemnitor shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the rights of recovery of the Indemnified Person against the Company or Subsidiary, and if for any reason a court of competent jurisdiction determines that any Other Indemnitor is not entitled to such subrogation, such Other Indemnitor shall have a right of contribution by the Company or Subsidiary to such Other Indemnitor with respect to any such payment by such Other Indemnitor; and

(vi) that if a third party seeks to hold an Affiliate of the Indemnified Person responsible for any action or inaction by such Indemnified Person by reason of (or arising in part out of) any event with respect to which the Company or Subsidiary has any indemnification obligation under this Section 4.8, then such Affiliate shall be entitled to indemnification under this Section 4.8 to the same extent as the Indemnified Person is entitled to indemnification hereunder.

Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary and except as otherwise provided herein and/or except for enforcement of the foregoing provisions and/or as otherwise provided in any other agreement between the Indemnified Person and/or the Company or any Subsidiary relating to the employment of such Indemnified Person by the Company and/or such Subsidiary, no Indemnified Person shall be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement in connection with any claim initiated by the Indemnified Person against the Company or Subsidiary or any Member, Board member, stockholder, director, manager or officer of the Company or Subsidiary unless the Company or Subsidiary, as applicable, has, in writing, joined in or consented to the initiation of such claim.

31

ARTICLE V

UNITHOLDERS

Section 5.1 Limitation of Liability.

Except as otherwise provided by applicable laws, the debts, obligations and liabilities of the Company, whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise, shall be solely the debts, obligations and liabilities of the Company, and no Unitholder or Board member shall be obligated personally for any such debt, obligation or liability of the Company by reason of being a Unitholder or acting as a representative of the Company; provided that a Unitholder shall be required to return to the Company any Distribution made to it in clear and manifest accounting or similar error. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the failure of the Company to observe any formalities or requirements relating to the exercise of its powers or management of its business and affairs under this Agreement or the Act shall not be grounds for imposing personal liability on the Unitholders for liabilities of the Company.

Section 5.2 Lack of Authority of Individual Unitholders.

Unless delegated such power in accordance with Section 4.5 or as otherwise provided in this Agreement, no Unitholder shall in its capacity as such have the authority or power to act for or on behalf of the Company in any manner, to do any act that would be (or could be construed as) binding on the Company, or to make any expenditures on behalf of the Company, and the Unitholders hereby consent to the exercise by the Board of the powers and rights conferred upon them by law and this Agreement.

Section 5.3 No Right of Partition.

No current or former Unitholder shall have the right to seek or obtain partition by court decree or operation of law of any Company property, or the right to own or use particular or individual assets of the Company.

Section 5.4 Confidentiality.

Each Unitholder recognizes and acknowledges that it may receive certain confidential and proprietary information and trade secrets of the Company Group, including but not limited to confidential information of the Company Group regarding identifiable, specific and discrete business opportunities being pursued by the Company or its Subsidiaries (the “Confidential Information”). Each Unitholder (on behalf of itself and the following persons: its directors, officers, shareholders, partners, employees, agents, members, and shareholders, whether or not such Unitholder would be responsible for their acts under principles of agency law) agrees that it will not, during or after the term of this Agreement, whether through an Affiliate or otherwise, take commercial or proprietary advantage of or profit from any Confidential Information or disclose Confidential Information to any Person for any reason or purpose whatsoever, except for disclosure (i) to authorized representatives and employees of the Company or its Subsidiaries and as otherwise may be proper in the course of performing such Unitholder’s obligations, or enforcing such Unitholder’s rights, under this Agreement; (ii) as part of such Unitholder’s normal reporting or review procedure, or in connection with such Unitholder’s or its Affiliates’ normal marketing, informational or reporting activities, or to such Unitholder’s (or any of its

32

Affiliates’) auditors, attorneys or other agents; (iii) to any bona fide prospective purchaser of the equity or assets of such Unitholder or its Affiliates or the Units held by such Unitholder, or prospective merger partner of such Unitholder or its Affiliates, provided that such purchaser or merger partner agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section 5.4 or similar provisions in a separate non-disclosure agreement; (iv) as is required to be disclosed by order of a court of competent jurisdiction, administrative body or governmental body, or by subpoena, summons or legal process, or by law, rule or regulation, provided that the Unitholder required to make such disclosure shall, to the extent permitted by law, provide to the Board prompt notice of any such disclosure and reasonably cooperate with the Board to seek confidential treatment of such disclosed information, or (v) in connection with the preservation, exercise or enforcement of such Unitholder’s rights. For purposes of this Section, “Confidential Information” shall not include any information: (x) of which such Person (or its Affiliates) became aware prior to its affiliation with the Company or any Subsidiary thereof, (y) of which such Person (or its Affiliates) learns from sources other than the Company or its Subsidiaries, whether prior to or after such information is actually disclosed by the Company or its Subsidiaries, or (z) which is disclosed in a prospectus or other documents available for dissemination to the public.

Section 5.5 Members Right to Act.

For situations in which the approval of the Members (rather than the approval of the Board on behalf of the Members) is required by this Agreement or under applicable law, the Members shall act through meetings and written consents as described in this Section 5.5:

(a) Except as otherwise provided by this Agreement, acts by Members holding a majority of the outstanding Class A Common Units, voting as a single class, shall be the act of the Members, with each Unit being entitled to one vote per Unit. Any Member entitled to vote at a meeting of Members or to express consent or dissent to Company action in writing without a meeting may authorize another Person or Persons to act for such Member by proxy. An email or similar transmission by the Member, or a photographic, facsimile or similar reproduction of a writing executed by the Member shall (if stated thereon) be treated as a proxy executed in writing for purposes of this Section 5.5(a). No proxy shall be voted or acted upon after eleven months from the date thereof, unless the proxy provides for a longer period. A proxy shall be revocable unless the proxy form conspicuously states that the proxy is irrevocable and the proxy is coupled with an interest. Should a proxy designate two or more Persons to act as proxies, unless that instrument shall provide to the contrary, a majority of such Persons present at any meeting at which their powers thereunder are to be exercised shall have and may exercise all the powers of voting or giving consents thereby conferred, or if only one be present, then such powers may be exercised by that one; or, if an even number attend and a majority do not agree on any particular issue, the Company shall not be required to recognize such proxy with respect to such issue if such proxy does not specify how the votes that are the subject of such proxy are to be voted with respect to such issue.

(b) Except as otherwise provided by this Agreement, the actions by the Members permitted hereunder may be taken at a meeting called by Members holding in the aggregate more than 50% of the outstanding voting Units by delivering to the Members a written notice at least two (2) business days in advance of such meeting which shall state the purpose or purposes for which such meeting is being called. The actions taken by the Members entitled to

33

vote or consent at any meeting (as opposed to by written consent), however called and noticed, shall be as valid as though taken at a meeting duly held after regular call and notice if (but not until), either before, at or after the meeting, each of the Members entitled to vote or consent as to whom it was improperly held signs a written waiver of notice or a consent to the holding of such meeting or an approval of the minutes thereof. Except as otherwise provided by this Agreement, the actions by the Members entitled to vote or consent may be taken by written consent (without a meeting and without a vote) so long as such consent is signed by Unitholders having not less than the minimum number of Units that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all Members entitled to vote thereon were present and voted. Prompt notice of the action so taken without a meeting shall be given to those Members entitled to vote or consent who have not consented in writing. Any action taken pursuant to such written consent of the Members shall have the same force and effect as if taken by the Members at a meeting thereof.

Section 5.6 Other Business Ventures and Investment Opportunities.

Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary and for avoidance of doubt, each Unitholder and its respective Affiliates may engage in and possess interests in other business ventures and investment opportunities. None of the Company, any Subsidiary or any other Unitholder shall have any rights in or to such ventures or opportunities or the income or profits therefrom by reason of this Agreement.

Section 5.7 A&A Representative.

The A&A Members shall designate one Representative (the “A&A Representative”) to act on behalf of all the A&A Members, from time to time by providing written notice to Rieke Member. Initially, the A&A Representative designated by the A&A Members will be Helga Arminak.

ARTICLE VI

DISSOLUTION AND LIQUIDATION

Section 6.1 Dissolution.

The Company shall be dissolved, and its affairs shall be wound up and terminated, upon:

(a) subject to Section 4.4(c) and Section 4.4(f), the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting Units approving such dissolution and liquidation; or

(b) an administrative dissolution or the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution of the Company under Section 18-802 of the Act.

Except as set forth above or as otherwise required by law, the Company is intended to have perpetual existence. The Company shall not be dissolved by the admission of additional or substitute Members or by an Event of Withdrawal, and upon and after any such admission or event the Company shall continue in existence subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

34

Section 6.2 Liquidation of Company Interests.

(a) Upon dissolution, the Company shall be liquidated in an orderly manner. The Board shall act (or, subject to compliance with Section 4.4(e), it may appoint one or more Members, Board members, officers, or other Persons to act) as the liquidators to wind up the affairs of the Company pursuant to this Agreement and terminate the Company. The costs of liquidation shall be borne by the Company. Prior to final distribution and termination, the liquidators shall continue to operate the Company and its assets with all of the power and authority of the Board. The steps to be accomplished by the liquidators are as follows:

(i) the liquidators shall pay, satisfy and discharge all debts, obligations, and other liabilities of the Company to its creditors (including, without limitation, all sales commissions or other expenses incurred in liquidation) or otherwise make adequate provision for payment and discharge thereof (including, without limitation, establishing cash reserves to be held in escrow for contingent or unforeseen liabilities of the Company, in such amounts and for such holding periods as the liquidators may reasonably determine); and

(ii) after payment or provision for payment of all of the Company’s liabilities has been made in accordance with subparagraph (i), all remaining assets of the Company shall be distributed to the Unitholders in accordance with Section 3.1(e).

(b) In making such distributions, the liquidators shall allocate each type of liquidation asset (i.e., cash or cash equivalents, units of a Subsidiary, etc.) among the Unitholders ratably based upon the aggregate amounts to be distributed with respect to the Units held by each such holder.

(c) The distribution of cash and/or property to a Unitholder in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.2 constitutes a complete return to such Unitholder of its Capital Contributions and a complete distribution to the Unitholder of its interest in the Company and the Company’s property. This paragraph constitutes a compromise to which all Unitholders have consented within the meaning of the Act.

(d) Upon completion of the distribution of the Company’s assets as provided herein, the Company shall be terminated (and the Company shall not be terminated prior to such time), and the Board (or such other Person or Persons as the Act may require or permit) shall file a certificate of cancellation with the Secretary of State of Delaware, cancel any other filings made pursuant to this Agreement that are or should be canceled and take all such other actions as may be necessary to terminate the Company. The Company shall be deemed to continue in existence for all purposes of this Agreement until it is terminated pursuant to this Section 6.2(d).

(e) A reasonable time shall be allowed for the orderly winding up of the business and affairs of the Company and the liquidation of its assets pursuant to this Section 6.2 in order to minimize any losses otherwise attendant upon such winding up.

(f) The liquidators shall not be personally liable for the return of Capital Contributions or any portion thereof to any Unitholder (it being understood that any such return shall be made solely from Company assets).

35

Section 6.3 Valuation.

(a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.3(a), the “Fair Market Value” of any assets to be valued under this Agreement shall be determined in accordance with this Section 6.3.

(b) The Fair Market Value of any asset constituting cash or cash equivalents shall be equal to the amount of such cash or cash equivalents.

(c) The Fair Market Value of any asset constituting publicly traded securities shall be the average, over a period of 21 days consisting of the date of valuation and the 20 consecutive business days prior to that date, of the average of the closing prices of the sales of such securities on the primary securities exchange on which such securities may at that time be listed, or, if there have been no sales on such exchange on any day, the average of the highest bid and lowest asked prices on such exchanges at the end of such day, or, if on any day such securities are not so listed, the average of the representative bid and asked prices quoted in the Nasdaq System as of 4:00 P.M., New York time, or, if on any day such securities are not quoted in the Nasdaq System, the average of the highest bid and lowest asked prices on such day in the domestic over-the-counter market as reported by the National Quotation Bureau Incorporated, or any similar successor organization.

(d) The Fair Market Value of any assets other than cash, cash equivalents, or publicly traded securities shall be the fair value of such assets, as determined by the Board in its reasonable discretion, provided that if, within 15 days following receipt of the writing setting forth any such determination of Fair Market Value by the Board, Rieke Member or any A&A Member shall notify the Company of its disagreement with such determination, then Fair Market Value shall be determined by an independent appraiser of recognized national standing (selected by the Board and reasonably satisfactory to the disagreeing Member). Each determination of Fair Market Value shall be made in accordance with generally accepted financial practice (but without any adjustment on account of any lack of liquidity, lack of control (or minority discount), lack of voting rights, or restriction on transferability of any securities) and shall be set forth in writing, and the Company shall, immediately following such determination, deliver a copy thereof to each holder or holders of the Units then outstanding. The determination of any such independent appraiser so made shall be conclusive and binding on the Company and on all holders of Units for purposes of the transaction giving rise to the need for such determination. The Company shall pay all of the expenses incurred in connection with any such determination, including, without limitation, the expenses of the independent appraiser engaged to make such determination. If the Company shall not have engaged such appraiser within 20 days after the occurrence of the event giving rise to the need therefor, then such appraiser may be engaged by the objecting Member(s) (at the sole cost of the Company).

Each Member will upon request supply any information necessary to give proper effect to any such election.

ARTICLE VIII

TRANSFER OF COMPANY INTERESTS

Section 8.1 Transfer in General; Put/Call Rights.

The sale, transfer, assignment, pledge or other disposition of any interest in any Unit (whether with or without consideration and whether voluntarily or involuntarily or by operation of law), directly or indirectly (other than the indirect transfer by transfer of publicly traded securities of the parent of a Unitholder), is referred to herein as a “Transfer” and to take such action is referred to herein as to “Transfer.” No Member shall Transfer any interest in any Units, except pursuant to (A) a Call or Put (each as defined below), (B) a Permitted Transfer, (C) the provisions of Section 8.2, (D) the provisions of Section 8.3 (as a tag-along participant) or (E) any Transfer approved by all of the members of the Board in its sole discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties agree that, except for Transfers pursuant to a Call or Put or a Permitted Transfer, prior to the Put/Call End Date, no Unitholder may Transfer any interest in any Unit.

(a) Put/Call Period. Subject the limitations set forth in this Section 8.1, the Rieke Member is entitled to purchase all of the A&A Members’ Units during the period (the “Put/Call Exercise Period”) beginning on January 1, 2014 and ending on March 31, 2016 (the “Put/Call End Date”) and the A&A Members are entitled to sell all of their Units to the Rieke Member during the Put/Call Exercise Period, in each case, the purchase right (a “Call”) or sale right (a “Put”) would only be exercisable during the following three time periods: (i) within the period beginning January 1, 2014 and ending on March 31, 2014 (the “First Exercise Period”), (ii) within the period beginning January 1, 2015 and ending on March 31, 2015 (the “Second Exercise Period”), or (iii) within the period beginning January 1, 2016 and ending on March 31, 2016 (the “Third Exercise Period”). For the purposes hereof, each of the First Exercise Period, the Second Exercise Period and the Third Exercise Period are hereinafter referred to as an “Exercise Period”.

(b) Exercise Rights.

38

(i) With respect to the First Exercise Period, a Call or a Put shall only be exercised for one-third of the Units owned by the A&A Members at the time of exercise. With respect to the Second Exercise Period, (A) if neither a Call nor Put was exercised during the First Exercise Period, then a Call or a Put shall only be exercised, for either one-third or one-half of the Units owned by the A&A Members at the time of exercise, or (B) if a Call or Put was exercised during the First Exercise Period, then the Call or Put for the Second Exercise Period shall only be exercised for one-half of the Units owned by the A&A Members at the time of exercise. Further, with respect to the Second Exercise Period, the parties may mutually agree to permit the exercise of the Call or Put of all the Units then owned by the A&A Members. With respect to the Third Exercise Period, a Call or a Put may be exercised for all or any portion of the Units owned by the A&A Members at the time of exercise. For the purposes hereof, a purchase of all of the Units then owned by the A&A Members, either with respect to the Second Exercise Period, by mutual agreement, or with respect to the Third Exercise Period is hereinafter referred to as a “Final Exercise”. If the Rieke Member exercises a Call and the A&A Member exercises a Put during any one of the Exercise Periods, only the exercise by the Rieke Member, on one hand, or the A&A Members, on the other hand, which is for the greater number of the A&A Members’ Units shall be effective for that Exercise Period. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any A&A Members’ Units transferred in connection with any Call or Put shall be transferred first by HRA, until HRA no longer has any Units, and then by Newco.

(ii) The Rieke Member may exercise a Call during an Exercise Period by delivering a written notice to the Company and the A&A Members, specifying in reasonable detail the number of Units to be purchased from the A&A Members and the Purchase Price (as defined below) for such Units.

(iii) Any A&A Member may exercise a Put during an Exercise Period by delivering written notice to the Company and the Rieke Member, specifying in reasonable detail the number of Units to be sold to the Rieke Member and the Purchase Price (as defined below) for such Units.

(iv) Lapse of Purchase/Sale Rights. Any Call or Put not fully exercised within an Exercise Period, as described above, will lapse to the extent not exercised during the applicable Exercise Period.

(c) Adjusted Gross Profit Statement.

(i) On or before February 15 in the applicable Exercise Period, the Company will prepare and deliver to the Members a written statement that has been audited by the Company’s audit firm (each, an “Adjusted Gross Profit Statement”) that sets forth the Adjusted Gross Profit to be used in the determination of the purchase price applicable to a Put or Call during an Exercise Period, which shall be the Adjusted Gross Profit for the calendar year immediately preceding such Exercise Period (the “Exercise Period Gross Profit”). The Members will cooperate as reasonably requested by the Company

39

in connection with the preparation of the foregoing, and the Company will make the work papers used in preparing each Adjusted Gross Profit Statement and any other information reasonably requested by any Member available to such Member at reasonable times and upon reasonable notice.

(ii) The Members may dispute the calculations set forth on any applicable Adjusted Gross Profit Statement by delivering a notice (a “Notice of Disagreement”) to the Company within twenty (20) days following delivery of the Adjusted Gross Profit Statement. Any Notice of Disagreement delivered pursuant to this Section 8.1(c)(ii) will specify in reasonable detail the nature and dollar amount of any disagreement so asserted and will be delivered only if (and to the extent that) the disagreeing Member reasonably determines that the Adjusted Gross Profit set forth on the Adjusted Gross Profit Statement does not accurately present the operating results of the Company during such applicable period.

(iii) During the ten (10) days following delivery of a Notice of Disagreement, the parties will seek to resolve in writing any differences which they may have with respect to the matters specified in the Notice of Disagreement and, if all differences are resolved and the end of the relevant Exercise Period has been reached or is within twenty (20) days of such ten (10) day period, the relevant Exercise Period shall be extended until twenty (20) days after such ten (10) day period. At the end of the ten (10) day period referred to above, if all differences are not resolved, the parties will submit to the Accounting Firm (as such term is defined in the Purchase Agreement) for review and resolution of all matters (but only such matters) which were properly included in the Notice of Disagreement, and not resolved by the parties during the ten (10) day period, and the Accounting Firm will make a final determination of the Company’s Exercise Period Gross Profit. The parties will cooperate with the Accounting Firm during the term of its engagement. In resolving any matters in dispute, the Accounting Firm may not assign a value to any item in dispute greater than the greatest value for such item assigned by the Company, on the one hand, or the disagreeing Member, on the other hand, or less than the smallest value for such item assigned by the Company, on the one hand, or the disagreeing Member, on the other hand. The Accounting Firm’s determination will be based solely on presentations by the Company and the disagreeing Member which are in accordance with the guidelines and procedures set forth in this Agreement (i.e., not on the basis of an independent review). The determination of the Exercise Period Gross Profit during the applicable time period will become final and binding on the parties on the date the Accounting Firm delivers its final resolution in writing to the Company and the disagreeing member (which final resolution will be delivered not more than thirty (30) days following submission of such disputed matters) and the relevant Exercise Period shall be extended until twenty (20) days after the delivery of the Accounting Firm’s final resolution to the Company and disagreeing Member. The fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm will be borne by equally by the Company and the disagreeing Member.

40

(d) HSR Filing. If the exercise of the purchase rights or sale rights (either individually or collectively) referenced in this Section 8.1, triggers a Hart-Scott-Rodino Anti-Trust Improvements Act (“HSR Filing”) filing requirement, any such Call or Put that triggers the HSR Filing would be subject to expiration of the applicable waiting period or the approval, if required, of the HSR Filing.

(e) Purchase Price. If the Rieke Member exercises a Call, or the A&A Members exercise a Put, the purchase price to be paid for such Call or Put shall be equal to (i) the product obtained from (A) the applicable Exercise Period Gross Profit multiplied by (B) the multiple opposite the applicable Adjusted Gross Profit range shown on the attached Schedule 8.1(e) within which such Exercise Period Gross Profit falls, and multiplied by (C) a fraction the numerator of which is equal to the number of Units subject to such Call or Put and the denominator of which is equal to the total number of Units outstanding at the time of the exercise of such Call or Put (the “Purchase Price”). In the event any fees or expenses (“Sage Fees”) are due to Sage (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) by the Company under that certain letter agreement dated March 31, 2010 by and among Sage, the Company and Helga Arminak, as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, in connection with the exercise of the Put or Call, as applicable, (x) the Rieke Member shall, if any portion of the Sage Fees is not in dispute by the Company or Helga Arminak, deduct such undisputed amount from the amount of the Purchase Price and shall pay such amount to Sage, or (y) the Rieke Member shall, if any portion of the amount of the Sage Fees is in dispute by the Company or Helga Arminak, withhold such disputed amount from the amount of the Purchase Price until the dispute has been resolved, after which Rieke Member shall remit to Sage any amounts withheld from the Purchase Price that are then due and payable to Sage and the balance to A&A Members under Section 8.1(f).

(f) Purchase and Sale of Units Subject to Put/Call. Subject to Rieke Member’s set-off rights provided in Section 9.4 hereof, within ten (10) days following the determination of the Purchase Price for the exercise of any Call or Put in accordance with this Section 8.1, concurrently (i) each selling A&A Member, on one hand, and Rieke Member, on the other hand, shall execute and deliver a Put/Call Unit Purchase Agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A with respect to the Units subject to the exercised Put/Call right, (ii) each selling A&A Member shall deliver to Rieke Member the certificate representing the Units subject to the exercised Put/Call right, duly endorsed in blank or accompanied by duly executed assignments separate from certificate, and (iii) Rieke Member shall pay to each selling A&A Member an amount equal to the Purchase Price for the Units transferred (less any applicable Sage Fees deducted or withheld by Rieke Member pursuant to Section 8.1(e) provided Rieke member shall treat and pay such deducted or withheld Sage Fees in accordance with Section 8.1(e)), by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by A&A Representative (which account shall have been designated at least two (2) Business Days prior to such payment being made); provided, that if any payment is delayed by reason of Section 9.4 or otherwise, any such delayed payment shall accrue interest at the rate of five percent (5%) per annum on the outstanding balance due.

41

Section 8.2 Right of First Refusal.

(a) After the Put/Call End Date, at least 30 days prior to any Transfer by any A&A Member (each, an “Offering Member”) of any interest in any Unit (except Transfers referred to in clauses (A), (B) or (D) of Section 8.1 above), such Offering Member shall deliver a written notice (an “Offer Notice”) to the Company and the Rieke Member, specifying in reasonable detail the identity of the prospective transferee(s), the number of Units to be transferred (the ”Offered Units”) and the price and other terms and conditions of the proposed Transfer.

(b) Subject to the provisions of this Section 8.2, the Company may elect to purchase all or a portion of the Offered Units at the price and on the other terms set forth in the Offer Notice by delivering written notice of such election to such Offering Member within 15 days after delivery of the Offer Notice.

(c) If the Company does not purchase all of the Offered Units, subject to the provisions of this Section 8.2 below, the Rieke Member may elect to purchase all or a portion of the Offered Units not purchased by the Company at the price and on the other terms set forth in the Offer Notice by delivering written notice of such election to the such Offering Member within 10 days after notification from the Company of its election to not purchase all of the Offered Units. If the Company and/or the Rieke Member have elected to purchase all of the Offered Units from such Offering Member, such purchase shall be consummated as soon as practicable after the delivery of the election notice to such Offering Member, but in any event within 60 days of delivery of the election notice.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Company and/or the Rieke Member do not elect to purchase all of the Offered Units, then such Offering Member shall have the option, in his/her sole and exclusive discretion, to sell all of the Offered Units to the prospective transferee(s) named in the Offer Notice, and on the terms, specified in the Offer Notice within 60 days after the first delivery of the Offer Notice to the Company and the Rieke Member, it being the intent of the parties that the first refusal right herein set forth shall apply to all, not a portion of the Offered Units, such that such Offering Member shall only be obligated to sell all, not a portion, of the Offered Units to the Company and the Rieke Member.

Section 8.3 Participation Rights.

After the Put/Call End Date, subject to and following compliance with Section 8.1 and Section 8.2 above, if any Member desires to Transfer any interest in any Unit (except, Transfers referred to in clauses (A), (B) or (C) of Section 8.1 above):

(a) Such Member shall deliver an Offer Notice to each other Member and any Member may participate in such Transfer at the same price and on the same terms applicable to such Member by giving written notice of such election to such Members within 10 days after delivery of the Offer Notice.

(b) Each Member (including the Transferring Member) electing to participate in such Transfer shall be entitled to sell in the contemplated Transfer a number of Units equal to the product of (x) the number of such Units to be sold in the contemplated Transfer times (y) a

42

fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Units held by such Member, and the denominator of which is the aggregate number of Units held by such Member and the other Members (including the Transferring Member) electing to participate in such Transfer.

(c) Such Member shall use reasonable efforts to obtain the agreement of the prospective transferee(s) to the participation of the electing Members in any such contemplated Transfer and to the inclusion of the Units held by such holder in the contemplated Transfer and entitled to be sold in such Transfer pursuant to Section 8.3(b) above, and the Transferring Member shall not Transfer any of its Units to any prospective transferee(s) unless (i) such prospective transferee(s) agree to allow the participation of all electing Members and to the inclusion of the Units held by such holders that are entitled to be sold in such Transfer pursuant to Section 8.3(b) above, or (ii) the Transferring Member purchases from each electing Member the same number of securities (at the same price and on the same terms) that such participating Member would have been entitled to sell had the prospective transferee(s) so agreed.

(d) In the event of a Transfer of any equity interest in any Member (except Transfers in connection with a Permitted Transfer), such Member shall obtain the agreement of the prospective transferee(s) to purchase the number of Units from each electing Member as such Member would have been entitled to Transfer pursuant to this Section 8.3 had such Member directly transferred the corresponding number of Units of the Company.

Section 8.4 Permitted Transfers.

For purposes of this ARTICLE VIII, a “Permitted Transfer” shall mean (a) in the case of any Rieke Member or any Affiliate thereof that is a Member, to its Affiliates or (b) in the case of any of HRA or Newco, to one another.

Section 8.5 Assignee’s Rights.

(a) A Transfer of a Unit permitted pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII shall be effective as of the date of assignment (unless otherwise specified therein) and compliance with the conditions to such Transfer, and such Transfer shall be shown on the books and records of the Company. Distributions made before the effective date of such Transfer shall be paid to the transferor, and Distributions made after such date shall be paid to the Assignee.

(b) Unless and until an Assignee becomes a Member pursuant to ARTICLE X, the Assignee shall not be entitled to any of the rights granted to a Member hereunder or under applicable law, other than the rights granted specifically to Assignees pursuant to this Agreement and the other rights granted to Assignees pursuant to the Act; provided that, without relieving the transferring Unitholder from any such limitations or obligations and as more fully described in Section 8.6, such Assignee shall be bound by any limitations and obligations of a Unitholder contained herein by which a Member or other Unitholder would be bound on account of the ownership of Units by the Assignee.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the rights specifically granted herein to A&A Members (including, for the avoidance of doubt, with respect to the appointment of a member to the Board pursuant to Section 4.2) shall not be assignable by any A&A Member in connection with any Transfer except in connection with a Permitted Transfer.

43

Section 8.6 Assignor’s Rights and Obligations.

Any Unitholder who shall Transfer any Units or other interest in the Company shall cease to be a Member with respect to such Units or other interest and shall no longer have any rights or privileges of a Unitholder with respect to such Units or other interest, except that unless and until the Assignee is admitted as a Substituted Member in accordance with the provisions of ARTICLE X (the “Admission Date”), such assigning Unitholder shall retain (i) all of the duties, liabilities and obligations of a Unitholder with respect to such Units or other interest, and (ii) all of the rights and privileges of such Unitholder with respect to such Units or other interest for any period of time prior to the Admission Date other than the fractional part of the Unitholder’s interests in the Profits, Losses and Distributions of the Company. Nothing contained herein shall relieve any Unitholder who Transfers any Units or other interest in the Company from any liability of such Unitholder to the Company or the other Unitholders with respect to such Units or other interest that may exist on the Admission Date or that is otherwise specified in the Act and incorporated into this Agreement or for any liability to the Company or any other Person or for any breaches of any representations, warranties or covenants by such Unitholder (in its capacity as such) contained herein or in the other agreements with the Company.

EXHIBIT B

Dispute Resolution Procedures

(Capitalized terms used and not defined in this Exhibit B have the respective meanings assigned

thereto in the Second Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of

Arminak & Associates, LLC to which this Exhibit B is attached)

The following procedures for resolution of disputes shall apply and shall be followed for any dispute or disagreement between the parties arising out of or in any way relating to the Agreement, including disputes or disagreements regarding indemnity claims under the Agreement, tort and any other claims (a “Dispute”).

A. Negotiation.

In the event of a Dispute, the Dispute shall be referred for discussion to senior representatives of the parties: the Company being represented by an individual selected by the Board, Rieke Member being represented by a senior executive officer of Rieke or TriMas Corporation who has direct operational responsibility for the matters contemplated by this Agreement and A&A Members being represented by the A&A Representative (for purposes of this Exhibit B, each such representative may be referred to as a “Negotiating Party”). The Negotiating Parties shall promptly meet in a good faith effort to resolve the Dispute. If the Negotiating Parties do not agree to a resolution within 30 calendar days after referral of the matter to them, then the mediation procedure set forth in Section B below shall apply. The date on which a Dispute is deemed to have been referred to the Negotiating Parties shall be the first date on which one of the parties to the Agreement sends written notice (which may be an email communication) stating in substance and effect that a Dispute should be referred to the Negotiating Parties.

B. Mediation.

If a Dispute is not resolved by negotiation pursuant to Section A above, the parties shall submit the Dispute to non-binding mediation as described herein. No party shall initiate any arbitration (Section C) or lawsuit (Section D) arising out of the parties’ relationship, or this Agreement, or seeking enforcement of, or any other legal remedy founded on, the Agreement, until after the Dispute has been submitted to mediation conducted in accordance with the procedures stated in this Section B.

1. Either party may initiate a mediation proceeding by sending a written Request for Mediation to the office of the American Arbitration Association located in New York, New York (the “Mediation Service”), with a copy to the other party. The Request for Mediation shall describe with reasonable specificity the nature of the Dispute and claim for relief. Thereupon, both parties will be obligated to engage in the mediation which shall be conducted in accordance with the Mediation Service’s then current rules, except to the extent such rules conflict with this Section B, in which case this Section B shall control.

2. A single mediator, who must be a retired judge or other mutually agreeable person with no past or present affiliation or conflict with any party to the mediation, will conduct the mediation. The parties agree that the mediator and Mediation Service’s employees shall be disqualified as a witness, expert, consultant or attorney in any pending or subsequent proceeding relating to the Dispute which is the subject of the mediation.

3. Upon receipt of the Request for Mediation, Mediation Service shall provide the parties with a list of mediators willing to serve. The parties shall attempt in good faith to agree upon a mediator. If the parties are unable to agree upon a mediator, and either party so advises Mediation Service of that fact in writing within 10 days after receipt of the list, Mediation Service shall appoint the mediator; provided, however, if neither party notifies Mediation Service within that time, the parties hereby authorize Mediation Service to appoint the mediator. The fees and expenses of Mediation Service, including (without limitation) the mediator’s fee, shall be shared equally by the parties. Each party shall bear its own attorney’s fees and other costs incurred in connection with the mediation irrespective of the outcome of the mediation or the mediator’s evaluation of each party’s case.

4. The mediation proceeding shall commence within thirty (30) days after selection of the mediator. The mediation shall be conducted at the office of the Mediation Service in New York, New York unless the parties and the mediator agree upon a mutually acceptable alternative location.

5. At least seven (7) days before the first scheduled session of mediation, each party shall deliver to the mediator and to the other party a concise written summary of its position with respect to the Dispute and claim for relief, and such other matters required by the mediator.

6. Each party shall cause one representative having full authority to settle the claim on its behalf to attend the mediation session. The parties shall participate in good faith in the mediation with the intention of resolving the dispute, if at all possible. The parties recognize and agree, however, that the mediator’s recommendations and decision shall not be binding on the parties.

7. During the mediation, the mediator may have joint and separate meetings with the parties and their counsel, at the mediator’s discretion. The mediation proceeding shall continue until conclusion, which is deemed to occur when: (a) a written settlement is agreed by the parties, (b) the mediator concludes and informs the parties in writing that further efforts would not be useful, (c) the parties agree in writing that an impasse has been reached, or (d) on the sixtieth (60th) day following the date of commencement of the mediation proceeding, whether or not a resolution or settlement has been achieved.

8. The mediation proceeding shall be private and non-binding, and shall be treated as a compromise settlement negotiation. All offers, promises, conduct and statements, whether oral or written, made in the course of the mediation proceeding by any party or their agents, experts, counsel, employees or representatives, and by the mediator and Mediation Service’s employees, are confidential. Such offers, promises, conduct and statements may not be disclosed to any third party and are privileged and inadmissible for any purpose, including impeachment,

under applicable law and rules of evidence; provided, however, that evidence otherwise discoverable or admissible shall not be rendered not discoverable or inadmissible as a result of its use in the mediation. If a party informs the mediator that information is conveyed in confidence by the party to the mediator, the mediator will not disclose the information to the other party or otherwise.

9. In order to preserve the confidentiality of the mediation proceeding, the mediator shall not provide a written evaluation of either party’s claims and defenses or of the likely resolution of the Dispute if not settled.

10. If a Dispute is not resolved by this mediation process, then the Dispute shall be resolved in accordance with either Section C or Section D, below.

C. Binding Arbitration.

If the parties cannot resolve any Dispute where the amount involved is $5,000,000 or less by negotiation and mediation under Sections A and B above, the parties shall submit such Dispute to binding arbitration to be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), with a hearing locale in New York, New York (or such other locale as the parties shall mutually agree upon), in accordance with the then current Commercial Arbitration Rules of the AAA. If the parties mutually agree, they may also submit Disputes where the amount involved is greater than $5,000,000 to binding arbitration as provided in this Section C.

A party shall initiate the arbitration by filing with the AAA and serving on all other parties, a demand to commence arbitration (“Arbitration Demand”). Within ten (10) business days of the receipt of the Arbitration Demand, the parties shall attempt to reach agreement as to an independent and impartial individual to serve as the arbitrator for the Dispute. If the parties are unable to agree upon an Arbitrator within the time specified above, the parties shall so advise the AAA and the AAA will follow the process set forth in the then current Commercial Arbitration Rules of the AAA for the selection of an independent and impartial arbitrator. Any arbitrator mutually agreed upon by the parties or suggested by the AAA shall have at least ten (10) years of experience in commercial transactions, together with significant experience with merger and acquisition transactions or resolving indemnity claims with respect to merger and acquisition transactions.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided in this Section C, the arbitration shall be governed by the United States Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §1 et seq. The arbitrator will determine the allocation of the costs and expenses of arbitration based upon the percentage which the portion of the contested amount not awarded to each party bears to the contested amount. For example, if A&A Representative submits a claim for $1,000, and if the Rieke Member contests only $500 of the amount claimed by A&A Representative, and if the arbitrator ultimately resolves the Dispute by awarding A&A Representative $300 of the $500 contested, then the costs and expenses of arbitration will be allocated 60% (i.e., $300 > $500) to the Rieke Member and 40% (i.e., $200 > $500) to the A&A Members.

The arbitrator shall be vested with the discretion to permit discovery and conduct such hearings and arguments as he/she shall determine appropriate under the circumstances, taking into account the requests of the parties and the dollar amount involved in the Dispute, with the goal of expeditiously and efficiently resolving the Dispute. The parties shall keep confidential any proprietary information, trade secrets or other non-public information disclosed in discovery or during any hearing.

The arbitrator shall render his/her award within ninety (90) days after the arbitrator is selected. The arbitrator shall not be empowered to award to any party any punitive, treble, exemplary, or multiple damages and each party hereby irrevocably waives any ability to recover any such damages.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided in this Section C and without prejudice to the above procedures, any party may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for temporary injunctive or other provisional judicial relief if such action is necessary to avoid irreparable damage or to preserve the status quo until such time as the arbitration is initiated and the arbitrator is available to hear such request for temporary relief. The Award rendered by the arbitrator shall be final and binding, and judgment thereon may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

D. Exception to Duty to Conduct Arbitration.
