2.7.2. Each Stockholder whose Shares have been converted into the right to receive payment pursuant to Section 2.4 will be entitled to receive after surrender to the Company of the Stock Certificates with respect to such Shares (or affidavits in accordance with Section 2.7.5) and proper delivery of a properly completed and executed letter of transmittal (and related tax forms) in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G-2 (the “Transmittal Documents”), for each such Share, the Per Share Merger Consideration in the manner and at the times set forth in this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement and the Transmittal Documents.

2.7.3. Each Option Holder whose Options have been converted into the right to receive payment pursuant to Section 2.5 will be entitled to receive after proper delivery to the Surviving Corporation of a properly completed and executed Optionholder Acknowledgment for each such Option, the Option Consideration payable to such Option Holder, minus any applicable withholding, in the manner and at the times set forth in this Agreement, in the manner and at the times set forth in this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement and the Optionholder Acknowledgement.

2.7.4. The Company shall (and after Closing the Surviving Corporation shall) pay by wire transfer of immediately available funds, as soon as reasonably practicable after a Stockholder has properly delivered to the Company or Surviving Corporation, as applicable, properly completed and executed Transmittal Documents and Stock Certificates (or affidavits in accordance with Section 2.7.5) evidencing the Shares of such Stockholder, cash in an amount equal to the Closing Per Share Cash Merger Consideration with respect to each such Share (provided that the Surviving Corporation shall pay such cash merger consideration on the Closing Date to each Stockholder who has delivered such documentation to the Company at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date), and Parent shall deliver to the Escrow Agent as soon as reasonably practicable after a Stockholder has properly delivered to the Company properly completed and executed Transmittal Documents and Stock Certificates (or affidavits in accordance with Section 2.7.5), the Escrow Parent Shares representing the Closing Per Share Stock Merger Consideration with respect to each such Share (provided that Parent shall deliver such Escrow Parent Shares on the Closing Date to the Escrow Agent for each Stockholder who has delivered such documentation to the Company at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date). As soon as reasonably practicable after an Option Holder has properly delivered to the Surviving Corporation a properly completed and executed Optionholder Acknowledgement, Parent shall deliver to the Escrow Agent the Escrow Parent Shares representing the Closing Stock Option Consideration with respect to each such Option (provided that Parent shall deliver such Escrow Parent Shares on the Closing Date to the Escrow Agent for each Option Holder who has delivered such documentation to the Company at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date).

2.7.5. If any Stock Certificate has been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon proper delivery of properly completed and executed Transmittal Documents and the making of an affidavit, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Parent, of that fact by the Person claiming such Stock Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, the Paying Agent will pay to such Person, in exchange for each of the Shares represented by such lost, stolen or destroyed Stock Certificate, the Per Share Merger Consideration in the manner and at the times set forth in this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement.

2.7.6. After the Effective Time, there will be no further registration of transfers of Shares. All Stock Certificates presented to the Paying Agent, as contemplated by this Section 2.7, will be cancelled upon such presentment.

2.8. Dissenting Shares.

2.8.1. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any Share that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time that is held by a Stockholder who did not vote in favor of the Merger or consent thereto in writing and who is entitled to demand and properly demands appraisal for such Share (“Dissenting Shares”) pursuant to, and who complies in all respects with, the provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL will not be converted into the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration, but instead will be entitled to payment of the fair value of such Share in accordance with the provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL. At the Effective Time, each holder of Dissenting Shares will cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the fair value of such shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL.

2.8.2. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any such Stockholder fails to perfect, withdraws or loses its right to appraisal, each Dissenting Share held by such Stockholder will be treated as if such Dissenting Share had been converted as of the Effective Time into a right to receive the applicable Per Share Merger Consideration, to be paid as provided in this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement.

2.9. Fractional Shares. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock will be issued pursuant to Section 2.4 or 2.5, but in lieu thereof, each Holder who would otherwise be entitled to a fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock pursuant to Section 2.4 or 2.5 (after aggregating all fractional shares of Parent Common Stock to be received by such Holder) shall receive from Parent an amount of cash (rounded to the nearest whole cent) equal to the product of such fraction multiplied by the Initial Value.

2.10. Withholding Rights. Parent, the Company, the Escrow Agent and the Surviving Corporation and any other applicable withholding agent will be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable to or for the benefit of any Person pursuant to this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under any provision of federal, state, local or foreign Tax law; provided, however, that the Person intending to withhold will notify such Persons of any amounts otherwise payable to such Persons that it intends to deduct and withhold at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date other than required withholdings in respect of Options for income, employment and similar Taxes and, to the extent that it is determined after the Closing Date that amounts should be deducted and withheld from the consideration otherwise payable to any Person pursuant to this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement, the applicable withholding agent will notify such Persons of any amounts otherwise payable to such Persons that it intends to so deduct and withhold other than required withholdings in respect of Options for income, employment and similar Taxes. Any amounts withheld in accordance with this Section 2.11 will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement as having been paid to the Holder in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

2.11. Closing Estimates; Cash Purchase Price Adjustment.

2.11.1. Estimated Closing Statement. The Company shall prepare and provide to Parent no later than two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date a written statement (the “Estimated Closing Statement”) setting forth in reasonable detail its good faith estimated calculations of the Closing Debt Amount, the Seller Transaction Expenses, the Cash on Hand, the Net Working Capital and the Cash Purchase Price calculated based on such estimates (the “Estimated Cash Purchase Price”). The Estimated Closing Statement will be prepared in accordance with the Accounting Principles and the definitions of Closing Debt Amount, Seller Transaction Expenses, Cash on Hand, Net Working Capital and Cash Purchase Price herein. The Closing Date payments to be made under Section 2.6.1 shall be calculated using the Estimated Closing Statement and Estimated Cash Purchase Price reflected therein.

2.11.2. Proposed Final Statement. As promptly as possible and in any event within sixty (60) Business Days after the Closing Date, Parent shall prepare or cause to be prepared, and will provide to the Holders’ Representative, a written statement (the “Proposed Final Closing Statement”) setting forth in reasonable detail its proposed final determinations of the Closing Debt Amount, the Seller Transaction Expenses, the Cash on Hand, the Net Working Capital and the Cash Purchase Price. The Proposed Final Closing Statement will be prepared in accordance with the Accounting Principles and the definitions of Closing Debt Amount, Seller Transaction Expenses, Cash on Hand, Net Working Capital and Cash Purchase Price herein. The Holders’ Representative and its Representatives shall have reasonable access to the work papers and other books and records of the Acquired Companies for purposes of assisting the Holders’ Representative and its Representatives in their review of the Proposed Final Closing Statement.

2.11.3. Dispute Notice. The Proposed Final Closing Statement (and the proposed final determinations of the Closing Debt Amount, the Seller Transaction Expenses, the Cash on Hand, the Net Working Capital and the Cash Purchase Price reflected thereon) will be final, conclusive and binding on the parties unless the Holders’ Representative provides a written notice (a “Dispute Notice”) to Parent no later than the sixtieth (60th) Business Day after the delivery to the Holders’ Representative of the Proposed Final Closing Statement. Any Dispute Notice must set forth in reasonable detail (i) any item on the Proposed Final Closing Statement which the Holders’ Representative believes has not been prepared in accordance with this Agreement and (ii) the Holders’ Representative’s alternative calculation of each such item and the Cash Purchase Price. Parent and its Representatives shall have reasonable access to the work papers and other materials used by the Holders’ Representative in calculating its proposed correct amount for purposes of assisting Parent and its Representatives in their review of the Dispute Notice. Any item or amount to which no dispute is raised in the Dispute Notice will be final, conclusive and binding on the parties on the sixty first (61st) Business Day after the delivery to the Holders’ Representative of the Proposed Final Closing Statement.

2.11.4. Resolution of Disputes. Parent and the Holders’ Representative will in good faith use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly resolve the matters raised in any Dispute Notice and agree upon the Final Cash Purchase Price (as defined below). Beginning twenty (20) Business Days after delivery of any Dispute Notice pursuant to Section 2.11.3, either Parent or the Holders’ Representative may provide written notice to the other (the “Dispute Submission Notice”) that it elects to submit the disputed items to ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP or another nationally recognized independent accounting firm chosen jointly by Parent and the Holders’ Representative (the “Accounting Firm”). In the event that ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP has not agreed to act as the Accounting Firm and an alternative Accounting Firm has not been selected by mutual agreement of Parent and the Holders’ Representative within ten (10) Business Days following the giving of the Dispute Submission Notice, each of Parent and the Holders’ Representative shall promptly select an accounting firm and promptly cause such two accounting firms to mutually select a third independent accounting firm to act as the Accounting Firm within twenty (20) Business Days of the giving of the Dispute Submission Notice. The Accounting Firm will promptly, in accordance with the rules set forth in the Accounting Firm’s engagement letter and its customary practices, review only those unresolved items and amounts specifically set forth and objected to in the Dispute Notice and resolve the dispute with respect to each such specific unresolved item and amount in accordance with this Agreement. In any such case, a single partner of the Accounting Firm selected by such Accounting Firm in accordance with its normal procedures and having expertise with respect to settlement of such disputes and the industry in which the Acquired Companies operate shall act for the Accounting Firm in the determination proceeding, and the Accounting Firm shall render a written decision as to each disputed matter, including a statement in reasonable detail of the basis for its decision and its calculation of the Final Cash Purchase Price (as defined below) based on such decision. In no event shall the decision of the Accounting Firm (i) provide for a calculation of any element of the Cash Purchase Price that is less than the lower calculation thereof shown in the Proposed Final Closing Statement or in the Dispute Notice or greater than the higher calculation thereof shown in the Proposed Final Closing Statement or in the Dispute Notice. The fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be apportioned among the Holders’ Representative and Parent based upon the relative extent to which the positions of the Holders’ Representative and Parent are upheld by the Accounting Firm. The relative extent to which such positions are upheld will be determined by comparing (a) the difference between the Final Cash Purchase Price as finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.11.4 and the Cash Purchase Price assuming all of the positions asserted by Parent had been upheld in their entirety by the Accounting Firm and (b) the difference between the Final Cash Purchase Price as finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.11.4 and the Cash Purchase Price assuming all of the positions asserted by the Holders’ Representative had been upheld in their entirety by the Accounting Firm. By way of illustration, (i) if Parent’s calculations would have resulted in a $100,000 net payment from the Adjustment Escrow Account to Parent (or if the amount on deposit in the Adjustment Escrow Account is not sufficient, from the Indemnity Escrow Account), the Holders’ Representative’s calculations would have resulted in a $100,000 net payment to the Holders from Parent and the Accounting Firm’s final determination results in an aggregate net payment of $50,000 to the Holders under Section 2.11.5, Parent and the Holders’ Representative shall pay 75% and 25%, respectively, of such fees and expenses and (ii) if each of such parties’ calculation differs from the Accounting Firm’s calculation by $100,000 or more, Parent and the Holders’ Representative shall split such fees and expenses evenly. The decision of the Accounting Firm with respect to the disputed items of the Proposed Final Closing Statement submitted to it will be final, conclusive and binding on the parties. Each of the parties to this Agreement agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Accounting Firm (including by executing a customary engagement letter reasonably acceptable to it) and to cause the Accounting Firm to resolve any such dispute as soon as practicable after the commencement of the Accounting Firm’s engagement.

2.11.5. Cash Purchase Price Adjustment.

(a) As used herein, the “Final Cash Purchase Price” shall mean (i) if a Dispute Notice is not delivered within the 60 Business Day period provided in Section 2.11.3, the Cash Purchase Price reflected in the Proposed Final Closing Statement as prepared by Parent or (ii) if such a Dispute Notice is delivered within the 60 Business Day period provided in Section 2.11.3, the Cash Purchase Price as finally determined pursuant to the dispute resolution provisions of this Section 2.11.5 reflecting (x) adjustments agreed to in writing by Parent and the Holders’ Representative with respect to any matters raised in the Dispute Notice that are resolved by agreement of the parties and (y) adjustments made pursuant to the decision of the Accounting Firm with respect to any matters raised in the Dispute Notice that are resolved by the Accounting Firm in accordance with Section 2.11.4.

(b) If the Final Cash Purchase Price differs from the Estimated Cash Purchase Price set forth in the Estimated Closing Statement, the Closing Per Share Cash Merger Consideration and Closing Cash Option Consideration will be recalculated by the Surviving Corporation and the Holders’ Representative using such final figures and Pro Rata Shares of each of the Holders set forth in the Pro-Rata Schedule in lieu of such estimated figures, and Parent shall pay (1) by wire transfer of immediately available funds, to each Stockholder such Stockholder’s Pro Rata Share of the amount, if any, by which such Final Cash Purchase Price exceeds the Estimated Cash Purchase Price and (2) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Surviving Corporation for the benefit of each Option Holder (to be paid to such Option Holders in the first payroll period after such amount has become due and payable), such Option Holder’s Pro Rata Share of the amount, if any, by which such Final Cash Purchase Price exceeds the Estimated Cash Purchase Price. Alternatively, the amount, if any, by which such Estimated Cash Purchase Price exceeds such Final Cash Purchase Price shall be paid to Parent from the Adjustment Escrow Account in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement and this Agreement, and if the amount on deposit in the Adjustment Escrow Account is not sufficient to make payment in full to Parent specified in this sentence, then from the Indemnity Escrow Account an amount equal to any such deficiency. To the extent that the deficiency referred to in the immediately preceding sentence exceeds the amount of the Indemnity Escrow Funds, no further payments shall be required in respect of such excess.

(c) Any payments under this Section 2.11.5 shall be made within five (5) Business Days following the determination of the Final Cash Purchase Price and funds then remaining in the Adjustment Escrow Account, if any, shall be released to (i) the Stockholders by the Escrow Agent in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares and the instructions contained in their Transmittal Documents and (ii) to the Surviving Corporation to be distributed to the Option Holders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares via the Surviving Corporation’s payroll system in the first payroll period after such amount has become due and payable.

2.12. Escrow and Holders’ Representative Fund.

2.12.1. The Escrow Agent will hold the Escrow Funds in escrow pursuant to and in accordance with this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement. All then remaining Indemnity Escrow Funds shall be released on the First Survival End Date, subject to holdback for unresolved claims, as more fully set forth in the Escrow Agreement. Any release of Indemnity Escrow Funds or Adjustment Escrow Funds to the Holders shall be made (i) by distribution by the Holders’ Representative (with the reasonable assistance of the Surviving Corporation) to the Stockholders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares and the instructions contained in the Transmittal Documents and (ii) to the Surviving Corporation to be distributed to the Option Holders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares via the Surviving Corporation’s payroll system in the first payroll period after such amount has become due and payable.

2.12.2. The Holders’ Representative Fund Amount, and all interest and other amounts earned thereon (the total of such amounts in the account, at any given time, the “Holders’ Representative Fund”), will be held by the Holders’ Representative for the purpose of paying Holders’ Representative Expenses incurred by the Holders’ Representative as contemplated by Section 10.13. Any release of the Holders’ Representative Fund shall be made (i) by distribution by the Escrow Agent to the Stockholders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares and (ii) to the Surviving Corporation to be distributed to the Option Holders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares via the Surviving Corporation’s payroll system in the first payroll period after such amount has become due and payable.

2.13. Illustrative Calculations. For illustrative purposes only, Exhibit I sets forth example calculations of the Cash Purchase Price, the Closing Per Share Cash Merger Consideration, the Closing Cash Option Consideration, the Closing Per Share Stock Merger Consideration and the Closing Stock Option Consideration, in each case based on certain illustrative assumed values set forth in such exhibit.

Each of the Company and Parent agrees to file all appropriate notifications and filings pursuant to the HSR Act or any applicable foreign antitrust and competition laws with respect to the Contemplated Transactions in the most expeditious manner practicable, but in any event within ten (10) Business Days after the date hereof and to supply promptly any additional information and documentary material that may be requested of such party by the relevant Governmental Authorities in connection with the HSR Act or any applicable foreign antitrust and competition laws. Each of the Company and Parent agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to take such actions as are necessary or reasonably advisable to promptly avoid or eliminate any impediment under the HSR Act or any applicable foreign antitrust and competition laws that may be asserted by any United States or foreign governmental antitrust authority so as to enable the parties to expeditiously consummate the Contemplated Transactions, including in the case of Parent and Merger Sub committing to or effecting, by consent decree, hold separate order or otherwise, the sale or disposition of such assets, securities, facilities or other properties as are required to be divested in order to facilitate the expiration or termination of the HSR Act waiting period or otherwise obtain all applicable merger control clearances under the HSR Act or any applicable foreign antitrust and competition laws. Parent shall pay the filing fees associated with the HSR filings and any applicable foreign antitrust and competition laws. Each of the Company and Parent agrees not to participate in any substantive meeting or discussion, either in person or by telephone, with any United States or foreign governmental antitrust authority in connection with the Contemplated Transactions unless it consults with the other party in advance, if at all possible, and, to the extent not prohibited by such governmental antitrust authority, gives the other party the opportunity to attend and participate. The Company and Parent will supply each other with copies of all correspondence, filings or communications with governmental antitrust authorities, with respect to the Contemplated Transactions; provided, that to the extent any of the documents or information are commercially or competitively sensitive, the Company or Parent, as the case may be, may satisfy its obligations by providing such documents or information to the other party’s outside antitrust counsel, with the understanding that such antitrust counsel shall not share such documents and information with its client (although such antitrust counsel may use such documents and information in advocating on behalf of its client with any governmental antitrust authority).

7.4.2. Certain Filings, Notices and Consents, Etc. Each of Parent and the Company shall, and the Company shall cause each Acquired Company to (a) use, commercially reasonable efforts to obtain or provide, as applicable, as soon as practicable following the date of this Agreement, each consent, waiver, approval, order or authorization of, filing with, or notice to, any Governmental Authority as required as set forth on Schedule 3.4.1 or under any other Contract to which an Acquired Company is a party and for which the consent, waiver, approval, order or authorization of, filing with, or notice to any Person is required and (b) cooperate with one another (i) in determining whether any action by or in respect of, or filing with, any Governmental Authority is required, or any other actions, consents, approvals or waivers are required to be obtained from third parties to any Material Company Contracts (other than those set forth on Schedule 3.4.1) in connection with the consummation of the Contemplated Transactions and (ii) in taking such other actions, making any other such filings, or furnishing information required in connection therewith and seeking timely to obtain any such actions, consents, approvals or waivers; provided, that nothing in this Agreement shall obligate or be construed to obligate any Acquired Company or Parent to make or cause to be made any payment or concession to any third party in order to obtain any such action, consent, approval or waiver under any Material Company Contract or any consents, approvals or waivers set forth on Schedule 3.4.1; provided, further, the obtaining of any such consents, approvals or waivers shall not be deemed to be conditions to the obligations of the parties to consummate the Contemplated Transactions.

7.5. Business Records. Parent acknowledges that the Holders’ Representative or the Holders may from time to time from and after the Closing require access to the Records from the pre-Closing period in connection with an Action, the preparation of tax returns or financial statements or other legitimate business purpose, and agrees that subject to an execution of a confidentiality agreement in form reasonably satisfactory to Parent, upon reasonable prior notice and solely in connection with an Action, the preparation of tax returns or financial statements or other legitimate business purpose, Parent will, and will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Acquired Companies to, during normal business hours, provide the Holders’ Representative, the Holders and each of their respective Affiliates and their respective Representatives with either access to or copies of the Records from the pre-Closing period. If the Acquired Companies shall desire to dispose of any such Records prior to the second anniversary of the Closing Date, the Company shall, prior to any such disposition, notify the Holders’ Representative and provide the Holders’ Representative (or, if applicable, its designee) and the Holders and its and their respective Representatives a reasonable opportunity, at the Holders’ Representative’s or such Holder’s expense, to make copies of or remove such Records.

7.6. Directors and Officers Indemnification and Insurance.

7.6.1. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, all rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation from liability for acts or omissions occurring in connection with or prior to the Closing now existing in favor of each Person who is now, or has been at any time prior to the date hereof or who becomes prior to the Closing, a director, officer, employee or agent of any Acquired Company (“D&O Indemnified Persons”), including as provided in the Organizational Documents of any Acquired Company, or any Contract between any Acquired Company and any D&O Indemnified Person set forth on Schedule 7.6.1, will survive the Closing and will continue in full force and effect in accordance with their respective terms for a period of not less than six (6) years after the Closing Date (or, in the case of any Contract, in accordance with its terms), and will not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of any D&O Indemnified Person.

7.6.2. On or before the Closing Date, Parent will obtain for the Company and for the benefit of the D&O Indemnified Persons, and beginning on the Closing Date and for at least a six (6) year period thereafter, Parent will cause the Surviving Corporation to maintain in effect, a so-called “tail” policy for such period covering acts or omissions occurring on or before the Closing Date with respect to those Persons who are currently covered by the Acquired Companies’ directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies or employment practices liability insurance policies on terms with respect to such coverage and amounts at least as favorable to such Persons as those of such policies in effect on the date hereof.

7.6.3. It is the intent of the parties that with respect to all obligations with respect to indemnification and advancement of expenses under this Section 7.6 that the Acquired Companies shall be the indemnitors of first resort and accordingly shall be the primary source of advancement, reimbursement and indemnification relative to any Person that was a direct or indirect holder of Equity Interests of any Acquired Company at or prior to the Closing (or any Person that is or was an Affiliate of such holder of Equity Interests, other than any Acquired Company). Neither Parent nor any Acquired Company shall have the right to seek contribution, indemnity or other reimbursement for any of its obligations under this Section 7.6 from any such Person that was a direct or indirect holder of Equity Interests of any Acquired Company at or prior to the Closing (or any Person that is or was an Affiliate of such holder of Equity Interests, other than any Acquired Company).

7.6.4. If any of the Acquired Companies (or any of their respective successors or assigns) transfers all or substantially all of its Equity Interests, properties or assets to any Person, through any single transaction or combination of transactions of any kind, then, and in each such case, Parent will cause proper provision to be made so that such Person fully assumes the obligations set forth in this Section 7.6.

7.6.5. This Section 7.6 shall be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, any Person that was a direct or indirect holder of Equity Interests of any Acquired Company at or prior to the Closing (and any Person that is or was an Affiliate of such holder of Equity Interests, other than any Acquired Company) and any D&O Indemnified Person, and in each case, their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors, administrators and estates, and such Persons shall be express third party beneficiaries of this Agreement for such purposes.

7.7. Conflicts of Interest; Privilege. Parent, on behalf of its itself and its Affiliates (including the Acquired Companies following the Closing) (Parent and all such other Persons, “Parent Related Parties”) hereby waives, any claim that Ropes & ▇▇▇▇ LLP or any other legal counsel representing any of the Acquired Companies prior to the Closing (each, a “Prior Company Counsel”) in connection with this Agreement or its subject matter or the Contemplated Transactions (“Pre-Closing Representation”) has a conflict of interest or is otherwise prohibited from representing any Holder, the Holders’ Representative or any of their respective officers, directors, members, managers or Affiliates (“Seller Related Parties”) in any dispute with any Parent Related Parties or any other matter involving this Agreement or its subject matter or the Contemplated Transactions, in each case, after the Closing Date, even though the interests of one or more of the Seller Related Parties in such dispute or other matter may be directly adverse to the interests of one or more Parent Related Parties and even though Prior Company Counsel may have represented one or more of the Acquired Companies in a matter substantially related to such dispute or other matter and may be handling ongoing matters for one or more Parent Related Parties. Parent, on behalf of the Parent Related Parties, hereby covenants and agrees, that, as to all communications between any Prior Company Counsel, on the one hand, and any Seller Related Parties or any Acquired Company (with respect to the Acquired Companies, solely prior to the Closing), on the other hand, that relate in any way to the Pre-Closing Representation, the attorney-client privilege and the expectation of client confidence belong to and shall be controlled by the Holders’ Representative or applicable Holder, and shall not pass to or be claimed by any Parent Related Parties. This Section 7.7 shall survive the Closing and shall remain in effect following the Closing. Without limitation of the foregoing, no Parent Related Parties may use or rely on any communications described in the immediately preceding sentence in any claim, dispute, action, suit or proceeding against or involving any of the Seller Related Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if after the Closing a dispute arises between Parent or the Acquired Companies, on the one hand, and a third party other than (and unaffiliated with) the Holders, on the other hand, then the Company (to the extent applicable) may assert the attorney-client privilege to prevent disclosure to such third party of confidential communications by Prior Company Counsel; provided, however, that neither Parent nor any Acquired Company may waive such privilege without the prior written consent of the Holders’ Representative, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. This Section 7.7 is for the benefit of the Seller Related Parties and each Prior Company Counsel, and the Seller Related Parties and each Prior Company Counsel are express third party beneficiaries of this Section 7.7. This Section 7.7 shall be irrevocable, and no term of this Section 7.7 may be amended, waived or modified, without the prior written consent of each of the Holders and Prior Company Counsel affected thereby.

7.8. Transfer Taxes. Parent shall be responsible for all Transfer Taxes (as well as the filing of all Tax Returns with respect thereto) in connection with the Contemplated Transactions.

7.9. Tax Returns.

(a) Following the Closing, Parent shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, and timely file or cause to be timely filed, all Tax Returns that are required to be filed for the Acquired Companies (other than the Professional Corporations) that relate to (or include) any Pre-Closing Tax Period and that are due after the Closing Date. Any such Tax Returns shall be prepared in a manner consistent with all positions taken, methods used, and elections made in prior periods in filing Tax Returns for the Acquired Companies (other than the Professional Corporations) to the extent consistent with applicable law and before filing any such Tax Return, Parent shall provide Holders’ Representative with a copy of such Tax Return for review and comment at least twenty (20) Business Days prior to the last date for timely filing such Tax Return (giving effect to any valid extensions thereof). At least ten (10) Business Days prior to the due date for the filing of any Tax Return provided to Holders’ Representative pursuant to this Section 7.9, the Holders’ Representative shall notify Parent of the existence of any objection or any comment the Holders’ Representative may have to any items set forth on such draft Tax Return, and if, after consulting in good faith, Parent and the Holders’ Representative are unable to resolve such objection(s), such objection(s) shall be referred to the Accounting Firm for resolution in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 7.9. If the Accounting Firm is unable to make a determination with respect to any disputed item before five (5) Business Days prior to the due date for the filing of the Tax Return in question, then (i) Parent may file such Tax Return reflecting Parent’s position with respect to any disputed item and (ii) if the Accounting Firm subsequently determines that such Tax Return should be amended, Parent shall file an amended Tax Return reflecting the Accounting Firm’s determination. The fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be paid in the manner prescribed in Section 7.9. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement (including Article 9), the Holders and the Holders’ Representative shall have no liability under this Agreement (including via the Escrow Agreement) with respect to (and Parent shall pay or cause to be paid) (x) any Taxes that were taken into account in the calculation of Net Working Capital as used in the Final Purchase Price, (y) Taxes incurred as a result of actions outside the ordinary course taken after the Closing or (z) Taxes incurred in any period that is not a Pre-Closing Tax Period. Following the Closing, neither Parent nor any Acquired Company (other than the Professional Corporations) shall amend any Tax Return to the extent that such Tax Return relates to any Pre-Closing Tax Period without the prior written consent of the Holders’ Representative (which will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Parent shall, if the Holders’ Representative requests and at the expense of the Holders’ Representative, cause the relevant entity to file for and obtain any refunds or credits to which the Holders may be entitled under Section 7.9(b). Parent shall control (at the expense of the Holders’ Representative) the prosecution and content of any such refund or credit claim, but shall keep the Holders’ Representative fully apprised of the status of such refund or credit claim and allow Holders’ Representative to participate in the assertion of any such claim.

(b) Any refunds (including, for the avoidance of doubt, overpayments of estimated Taxes) of, or credits against, Taxes of, or with respect to, the Acquired Companies (other than the Professional Corporations) for any Pre-Closing Tax Period that were not taken into account as a current asset in calculating Net Working Capital will be for the benefit of the Holders, and Parent or the Surviving Corporation will forward the amount of any such refunds (whether received as a refund or as a credit against or an offset of Taxes otherwise payable), together with any interest thereon, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to (i) the Stockholders, in accordance with such Stockholders’ Pro Rata Shares (calculated by the Surviving Corporation in accordance with the Pro-Rata Schedule) and (ii) to the Surviving Corporation to be distributed to the Option Holders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares (calculated by the Surviving Corporation in accordance with the Pro-Rata Schedule) in the next payroll period thereafter, in each case, within twenty (20) days of receipt.

(c) Parent, the Company and the Holders’ Representative will, and will cause their respective Affiliates to, provide each other with such cooperation and information as any of them reasonably may request in connection with any Tax matters relating to the Acquired Companies. Such cooperation and information will include providing copies of relevant Tax Returns or portions thereof, together with accompanying schedules, related work papers and documents relating to rulings or other determinations by tax authorities. Parent will retain, or cause the Company to retain, all Tax Returns, schedules and work papers, records and other documents in its possession relating to Tax matters of the Acquired Companies for all Pre-Closing Tax Periods until the later of (i) the expiration of the statute of limitations of the taxable periods to which such Tax Returns and other documents relate or (ii) six (6) years following the due date (without extension) for such Tax Returns. Any information obtained under this Section 7.9(c) will be kept confidential except as may be otherwise necessary in connection with the filing of Tax Returns or claims for refund or in conducting an audit or other proceeding.

(d) No election under Section 338(g) of the Code, or any similar provision of state, local or foreign law, may be made with respect to the Contemplated Transactions.

(e) Parent shall promptly notify the Holders’ Representative in writing of the commencement of any audit or examination of any Tax Return of the Acquired Companies for any Pre-Closing Tax Period and any other proposed change or adjustment, claim, dispute, arbitration or litigation that, if sustained, would reasonably be expected to give rise to a claim for indemnification in respect of Taxes under this Agreement (a “Tax Claim”). Such notice shall describe the asserted Tax Claim in reasonable detail and shall include copies of any notices and other documents received from any Taxing Authority in respect of any such asserted Tax Claim. The Holders’ Representative shall have the right to control any Tax Claims in the Tax audit, examination, and settlement stage and, if not settled, in any further contest; provided, however, that the Holders’ Representative shall inform Parent of the status and progress of such Tax Claim and that Parent will have the opportunity to participate in such Tax Claim at its expense. The Holders’ Representative may not settle any Tax Claim (either at the audit or examination stage or thereafter) without first obtaining Parent’s consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). In the event that Holders’ Representative does not exercise its right to control any Tax Claim, Parent shall control such Tax Claim; provided, however, that Parent shall inform the Holders’ Representative of the status and progress of such Tax Claim and the Holders’ Representative will have the opportunity to participate in such Tax Claim at its expense. Parent shall not settle any Tax Claim (either at the audit or examination stage or thereafter) without first obtaining the Holders’ Representative’s consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed).

7.10. Exclusivity. From the date of this Agreement until the Closing, or the earlier termination of this Agreement in accordance with Article 8, the Company shall not (and the Company shall not cause any of its Representatives to) solicit or initiate the submission of any proposal or offer from any Person relating to, or enter into or consummate any transaction relating to, the acquisition of all or substantially all of the equity interests or assets of the Company (whether by merger, recapitalization, share exchange, sale of assets or any other similar transaction) or participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding, furnish any information with respect to, or assist or participate in any effort or attempt by any Person to do or seek any of the foregoing.

7.11. Further Assurances. Each of the Holders’ Representative and Parent, upon the request of the other from time to time after the Closing, and at the expense of the requesting party but without further consideration, shall sign such documents and take such actions as may be necessary or otherwise reasonably requested to make more fully effective the consummation of the Contemplated Transactions.

7.12. 280G. Prior to the Closing Date, assuming the Company’s receipt of the requisite waivers referred to in the next sentence of this Section 7.12, the Company will seek stockholder approval, in accordance with Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code, of the right of any “disqualified individual” to receive or retain any payments that could, in the absence of such stockholder approval, constitute “excess parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code. Prior to seeking such approval, the Company shall provide Parent with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on all documents associated with seeking such stockholder approval, shall make any changes that Parent reasonably requests, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to seek and obtain waivers from the intended recipients of such payments such that unless such payments are approved by the relevant stockholders to the extent and in the manner prescribed under 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code, such payments shall not be required to be made. Promptly following receipt of such approval, the Company will deliver to Parent a copy of the executed action effecting such approval.

7.13. Financing.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Parent and Merger Sub shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, or cause to be obtained, the proceeds of the Debt Financing on the terms and conditions described in the Debt Commitment Letter, including using their commercially reasonable efforts to (i) maintain in effect the Debt Commitment Letter until the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated, (ii) negotiate definitive agreements with respect to the Debt Financing (the “Definitive Agreements”) consistent in all material respects with the terms and conditions contained in the Debt Commitment Letter (including, as necessary, the “flex” provisions contained in the Fee Letter) or, if available, on other terms that would not constitute a Prohibited Amendment (as defined below) and (iii) satisfy all conditions in the control of Parent and Merger Sub to obtaining the Debt Financing. In the event that all conditions contained in the Debt Commitment Letter have been satisfied or waived, Parent and Merger Sub shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Lenders to fund the Debt Financing (and shall pay any related fees and expenses on the Closing Date) required to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and shall enforce their respective rights against the Lenders under the Debt Financing. Parent and Merger Sub shall give the Company prompt notice of any breach by any party to the Debt Commitment Letter of which Parent and Merger Sub have become aware or any termination of any of the Debt Commitment Letter. Parent and Merger Sub shall not, without the prior written consent of the Company, (A) permit any amendment or modification to, or any waiver of any material provision or remedy under, or replace, the Debt Commitment Letter if such amendment, modification, waiver, or replacement (w) would (i) add new (or modify any existing) condition to the Debt Financing Commitments, in each case that would reasonably be expected to prevent, impede, materially delay or render less likely the ability of Parent and Merger Sub to timely consummate, or cause to be consummated, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (ii) make the timely funding of the Debt Financing or satisfaction of the conditions to obtaining the Debt Financing less likely to occur, (x) reduces the amount of the Debt Financing such that the aggregate funds (taking into account any alternative debt financing, as described below) that would be available to Parent and Merger Subs at the Closing would be less than the Purchase Price and any fees, expenses and other amounts payable by or on behalf of Parent and Merger Sub pursuant to this Agreement, (y) could reasonably be expected to prevent, impede, materially delay or render less likely the consummation of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (z) adversely impacts the ability of Parent or Merger Sub to enforce its material rights against the other parties to the Debt Commitment Letter or the definitive agreements with respect thereto (each of clauses (w) through (z) being referred to as a “Prohibited Amendment”); or (B) terminate the Debt Commitment Letter, unless the Debt Commitment Letter is replaced in a manner consistent with the foregoing clause (A); provided, that (i) the Debt Commitment Letter may be amended or modified to add or replace one or more lenders, lead arrangers, bookrunners, syndication agents or similar entities which had not executed the Debt Commitment Letter as of the date hereof, provided that no such addition or replacement would reasonably be expected to prevent, impede or materially delay the ability of Parent and Merger Sub to finally consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (ii) the Debt Commitment Letter may be amended or modified to replace the facilities with a first-lien/second-lien bank-only financing structure, subject to the prior review and approval of the Company (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, it being understood that the Company shall be deemed to be acting reasonably in withholding its consent if any of the terms of such amendment or modification would constitute a Prohibited Amendment). Upon any such amendment, supplement or modification of the Debt Financing Commitments in accordance with this Section 7.13(a), the term “Debt Financing Commitments” shall mean the Debt Financing Commitments as so amended, supplemented or modified. In the event that any portion of the Debt Financing becomes unavailable (and such portion is necessary for Parent to pay the Purchase Price and any fees, expenses and other amounts payable by or on behalf of Parent and Merger Sub pursuant to this Agreement), regardless of the reason therefor, Parent and Merger Sub will (1) use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, as promptly as practicable following the occurrence of such event and in any event no later than the last day of the Marketing Period, alternative debt financing in an amount sufficient to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement on substantially equivalent or more favorable terms (taking into account any “flex” provisions in the Debt Commitment Letter) from the same or other sources and which would not prevent, impede or materially delay and would not reasonably be expect to prevent, impede or materially delay the consummation of the Debt Financing or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and promptly provide to the Company a true and complete copy of the commitment letter entered into in connection therewith (together with any related fee letter (which may be redacted as to fee and other economic terms, provided that such fee letters contain enough information to allow for an accurate calculation of the maximum amount of flex and original issue discount which could result under such letters)) and (2) promptly notify the Company of such unavailability and the reason therefor. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the commercially reasonable efforts of Parent and Merger Sub be deemed or construed to require Parent or Merger Sub to, and Parent and Merger Sub shall not be required to, (i) pay any fees or other compensation or expenses in excess of those contemplated by the Debt Financing Commitments as in effect on the date hereof (taking into account any “flex” provisions in the Debt Commitment Letter) or (ii) agree to any term that is less favorable than, any applicable economic provision of, or terms which are otherwise materially less favorable, taken as a whole, to Parent and Merger Sub than the terms contained in, the Debt Financing Commitments as in effect on the date hereof or the Fee Letter (including any flex provision therein) as in effect on the date hereof. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 7.13 or in any other provision of this Agreement, in no event shall Parent or Merger Sub be required to consummate the Closing any earlier than the final day of the Marketing Period. For the purposes of this Agreement, the terms “Debt Commitment Letter” and “Debt Financing Commitments” shall be deemed to include any commitment letter (or similar agreement) or commitment with respect to any alternative financing arranged in compliance herewith (and any Debt Commitment Letter and Debt Financing Commitment remaining in effect at the time in question). Parent and Merger Sub shall provide the Company with prompt oral and written notice of (1) any breach or default by any party to the Debt Commitment Letter or the Definitive Agreements of which Parent or Merger Sub becomes aware, (2) the receipt of any written notice or other written communication from any Lender or other financing source with respect to any breach, default, termination or repudiation by any party to the Debt Commitment Letters or the Definitive Agreements of any provision thereof and (3) if Parent or Merger Sub becomes aware that the Debt Commitment Letter ceases to be in full force and effect and the legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligations of Parent or of the other parties thereto; provided, that in no event shall Parent or Merger Sub be under any obligation to disclose any information that is subject to attorney client or similar privilege, but only if such privilege is asserted in good faith. Parent and Merger Sub shall keep the Company reasonably informed on a reasonably current basis of the status of their efforts to consummate the Debt Financing and provide to the Company, upon the Company’s reasonable request, copies of all material documents related to the Debt Financing.

(b) Prior to the Closing, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide and to cause its Subsidiaries and each of their respective Representatives, including legal and accounting, to provide all cooperation reasonably requested by Parent, Merger Sub and the Lenders in connection with the arrangement of the Debt Financing, including using commercially reasonable efforts to (i) furnish Parent and the Lenders as promptly as practicable with (I) the financial statements set forth in items 1, 2 and 5 of Schedule 7.13(b), which (x) shall have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods covered thereby, subject, in the case of the financial statements delivered pursuant to clause (i)(I) hereof, to normal year-end adjustments and the absence of notes, (y) shall meet the requirements of Regulation S-K and Regulation S-X under the Securities Act applicable to offerings of high yield debt securities on a registration statement under the Securities Act on Form S-1 (excluding information required by Regulation S-X, Rule 3-09, Rule 3-10 and Rule 3-16, information regarding executive compensation (including under Rule 402(b) of Regulation S-X) and other information customarily excluded from a Rule 144A offering memorandum) and (z) shall have been audited (with respect to annual financial statements) or reviewed (with respect to unaudited financial statements) by the Company’s or such other Person’s, as applicable, independent accountants as provided in SAS 100 (or successor standard), (II) such financial information and data relating to the Company and its Subsidiaries as is otherwise necessary in order to receive customary (for high yield debt securities) “comfort” letters with respect to the Annual Financial Statements and the financial statements, information and data referred to in clause (i)(I) (including customary “negative assurance” comfort from BDO USA, LLP (including drafts of such “comfort” letters which such auditor is prepared to issue upon completion of customary procedures, in form and substance customary for high yield debt securities offerings under Rule 144A)) and (III) the items set forth in items 3 and 4 of Schedule 7.13(b) (all such information in this clause (i), the “Required Information”), (ii) furnish such other financial information and other pertinent information regarding the Company and its Subsidiaries as may be reasonably requested (and updated as reasonably requested) by Parent and Merger Sub to consummate the Debt Financing and is customary to be included in marketing materials for senior secured or unsecured indebtedness or used to market high-yield debt offerings or to syndicate credit facilities of the type to be included in the Debt Financing (or any documentation or deliverables in connection therewith), (iii) prior to and during the Marketing Period, participate in a reasonable number of meetings, presentations, lender meetings or calls, road show meetings, due diligence sessions and sessions with rating agencies in connection with the Debt Financing at times and locations to be mutually agreed, and assist with the preparation of materials for rating agency presentations and similar documents required in connection with the Debt Financing and otherwise reasonably cooperate in the marketing efforts related to the Debt Financing, (iv) obtain the accountant “comfort” letters described in the Required Information and issuing customary management representation letters to BDO USA, LLP to obtain such “comfort” letter, legal opinions, surveys and title insurance as reasonably requested by Parent and Merger Sub as necessary and customary for financings similar to the Debt Financing, (v) assist in the preparation of private and public customary confidential information memoranda for the bank facilities, private placement memoranda and offering documents for a customary high yield debt securities offering (collectively, the “Offering Memoranda”) and other customary marketing materials to be used in connection with the syndications reasonably deemed necessary by the lead arrangers of the Debt Financing to complete a successful syndication pursuant to the terms of the Debt Commitment Letter (all such Company efforts in clauses (ii)-(v) hereof, the “Marketing Efforts”), (vi) help Parent procure a public corporate credit rating and a public corporate family rating in respect of the facilities contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter and any high yield debt securities offered in connection therewith from Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services (“S&P”) and ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ Investors Service, Inc. (“▇▇▇▇▇’▇”), respectively, and public ratings for any of the facilities and any debt securities issued in connection with the Debt Financing from each of S&P and Moody’s, (vii) execute and deliver and cause its Subsidiaries to execute and deliver, effective as of the Closing Date, one or more credit agreements, purchase agreements, registration rights agreements, indentures or other agreements, or joinders thereto, on terms reasonably satisfactory to Parent in connection with the Debt Financing, as well as any pledge and security documents and other definitive financing documents or other certificates or documents as may be reasonably requested by Parent and Merger Sub and otherwise reasonably facilitate the pledging of collateral and taking all necessary corporate or other entity actions to facilitate all of the foregoing, (viii) facilitate the consummation of the Debt Financing to the extent within the control of the Company and its Subsidiaries, and taking all corporate actions, subject to the Effective Time, reasonably requested by the Parent or Merger Sub to permit the consummation of the Debt Financing, (ix) at least five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, provide all documentation and other information about the Company as is reasonably requested by the Lenders with respect to applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations including without limitation the USA PATRIOT Act, provided that the request by Parent or Merger Sub for such information is received by the Company at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, (ix) obtain customary pay-off letters, lien terminations, title transfers, and instruments of discharge or transfer relating to any collateral to be delivered at the Closing Date, (x) use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that any syndication efforts in connection with the Debt Financing benefit from the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ existing lending and investment banking relationships and (x) ensure that there are no competing issues of debt securities or syndicated credit facilities of the Company or its Subsidiaries being offered, placed or arranged between the execution of this Agreement and the Closing Date (other than the Debt Financing). Nothing in this Section 7.13(b) shall require such cooperation to the extent it would interfere unreasonably with the business or operations of the Company or its Subsidiaries. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary of the Company, nor any of their respective directors, shall (i) be required to commit to take any action pursuant to this Section 7.13(b) that is not contingent upon the Closing, that would be effective prior to the Effective Time (including the entry into any agreement or other closing arrangement on behalf of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, except for customary authorization letters with respect to the Company authorizing the distribution of information to prospective lenders or financing sources in connection with the Debt Financing, (ii) be required to enter into any resolution, consent or approval, including any relating to approving any Debt Financing which is not contingent on the occurrence of the Effective Time, (iii) make any representation, warranty or certification as to which the Company has determined such representation, warranty or certification is not true or (iv) provide or cause to be provided, any legal opinion by its counsel, or to provide any information or take any action to the extent it would result in the violation of applicable law or loss of any privilege. None of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company shall be required to take any action pursuant to this Section 7.13(b) that would subject it to actual or potential liability for which it would not be indemnified hereunder or to pay any commitment or other similar fee or make any other payment (other than reasonable out-of-pocket costs) or provide or agree to provide any indemnity in connection with the Debt Financing or any of the foregoing prior to the Effective Time. All non-public or otherwise confidential information regarding the Acquired Companies and their businesses obtained by Parent and Merger Sub and their financing sources pursuant to this Section 7.13(b) shall be kept confidential in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement, except as is customary in connection with the Marketing Efforts and Parent and Merger Sub shall be permitted to disclose such information to potential sources of capital, rating agencies, prospective lenders and investors and their respective officers, employees, representatives and advisors in connection with the Debt Financing subject to customary confidentiality provisions. Parent shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its Subsidiaries and its and their Representatives from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, claims, costs, expenses, interest, awards, judgments and penalties suffered or incurred by them in connection with the arrangement of the Debt Financing (including any action taken in accordance with this Section 7.13(b)) and any information utilized in connection therewith (other than historical information relating to the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company provided by the Company for purposes of the Debt Financing) other than arising from fraud, gross negligence, willful misconduct or intentional misrepresentations by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. Parent shall, promptly upon request by the Company from time to time, reimburse the Company for all out-of-pocket fees, costs and expenses incurred by the Company or its Subsidiaries (including those of its auditors, consultants, legal counsel, agents and other Representatives) in connection with this Section 7.13(b). The Company hereby consents to the use of its and its Subsidiaries’ logos in connection with the Debt Financing; provided, that such logos are used solely in a manner that is not intended or reasonably likely to harm or disparage the Company or its Subsidiaries or the reputation or goodwill of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

(c) If, prior to the Closing, any Acquired Company becomes aware of any facts, circumstances or events that cause any information about any Acquired Company furnished by any Acquired Company and included in any Offering Memoranda that has been provided to the Company (the “Information”) to include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a fact necessary to make such statements, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not materially misleading (after giving effect to all supplements and updates thereto from time to time), the Company shall, and shall cause each Acquired Company to, promptly notify Parent and update the Information such that the Information (after giving effect to all supplements and updates thereto from time to time) does not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a fact necessary to make such statements, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not materially misleading (after giving effect to all supplements and updates thereto from time to time).

(d) On or prior to the date that is three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company will furnish the audited consolidated balance sheets of the Acquired Companies as of December 31, 2013, December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 and the related statements of income, stockholders’ equity and cash flows of the Acquired Companies for the fiscal years then ended (or the stub period ended December 31, 2011) (the “Audited Annual Financial Statements”).

7.14. Cash Bonus Plan. The Company has adopted the CCHN Group Holdings 2014 Cash Bonus Plan (the “Cash Bonus Plan”) and, concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Company and certain members of the Acquired Companies’ management are entering into cash bonus award agreements under the Cash Bonus Plan (“Award Agreements”) pursuant to which such Participants (such term being used herein as defined in the Cash Bonus Plan) are being granted awards (“Awards”) of the right to earn cash bonuses, all on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Cash Bonus Plan and such Award Agreements. The maximum aggregate amount of all cash bonuses payable under the Cash Bonus Plan is $5,000,000 (the “Aggregate Cash Bonus Amount”) less any amount of applicable Taxes. Each of the Awards (a) shall become effective only upon the occurrence of the Effective Time, (b) shall be null and void ab initio upon the termination of this Agreement at any time prior to the Effective Time and (c) shall be made on such other terms and conditions (including with respect to vesting and forfeiture) as are provided for in the Cash Bonus Plan. All Awards under the Cash Bonus Plan shall be funded as follows: at the Closing, Parent shall pay the Aggregate Cash Bonus Amount to the Escrow Agent to hold in the Cash Bonus Plan Escrow Account and such payment shall be treated as a Seller Transaction Expense hereunder.

7.15. Notification. From the date of this Agreement until the Closing, or the earlier termination of this Agreement in accordance with Article 8, the Company shall promptly notify Parent in writing of any (a) breach of any covenant, obligation, representation or warranty of the Company under this Agreement of which the Company becomes aware (including, with respect to any representation or warranty, as if the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement were given as of each day following the date of this Agreement until the Closing, or the earlier termination of this Agreement in accordance with Article 8), (b) Action commenced or asserted or, to the Company’s Knowledge, threatened, against or with respect to any of the Acquired Companies or the Contemplated Transactions, (c) material default by an Acquired Company under any Material Company Contract or event which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would become such a default on or before the Closing Date, (d) to the Company’s Knowledge, material default by any third party under any Material Company Contract or event which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would become such a default on or before the Closing Date, (e) written or, to the Company’s Knowledge, oral notice from a Material Customer of its intention to (i) terminate, cancel or suspend its relationship with any of the Acquired Companies or (ii) materially reduce its level of purchase from or services received from any of the Acquired Companies and (f) Material Adverse Effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no notification contemplated by this Section 7.15 will: (x) be deemed to cure any breach of the covenants, obligations, representations and warranties given by the Company on the date of this Agreement and shall not prevent Parent from terminating this Agreement pursuant to Article 8 at any time at or prior to Closing if such termination right is then exercisable in accordance with the terms hereof or (y) with respect to events, facts or conditions arising solely after the date of this Agreement and prior to the Closing, be deemed to give rise to a claim for indemnification by a Parent Indemnified Party pursuant to Article 9.

7.16. Escrow Agent and Escrow Agreement. The Company and Parent shall retain the Escrow Agent and shall cause the Escrow Agreement to be finalized and for execution at or prior to Closing.

8.	TERMINATION.

8.3. Parent Termination Payment.

(a) If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to (i) Section 8.1.3, or (ii) Section 8.1.7, then, in any such case, Parent shall pay or cause to be paid to the Company a fee, in cash, equal to $18,000,000 (the “Parent Termination Fee”).

(b) The Parent Termination Fee shall be paid within five (5) Business Days after the termination of this Agreement, it being understood that in no event shall Parent be required to pay or cause to be paid the Parent Termination Fee on more than one occasion. Upon payment of the Parent Termination Fee (and any additional amounts payable under and in accordance with Section 8.3(d)), neither Parent nor any other member of the Parent Group shall have any further liability with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (including the Debt Financing) to the Company or any other Person (whether at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise), and none of the Company, any Holder or any other Person shall have any claim or recourse against any member of the Parent Group as a result of the breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of Parent or Merger Sub, as applicable, contained herein or otherwise arising out of or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including the Debt Financing). For purposes hereof, “Parent Group” shall mean Parent, Merger Sub, and the Lenders and each of their respective former, current or future holders of any equity, partnership or limited liability company interests, controlling persons, directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, Affiliates, members, managers, general or limited partners, stockholders or assigns.

(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event that Parent or Merger Sub fail to effect the Closing for any reason or no reason or any of them otherwise breaches this Agreement prior to the Closing (or any representation, warranty or covenant hereof) (whether willfully, intentionally, unintentionally or otherwise) or otherwise fail to perform hereunder prior to the Closing (whether willfully, intentionally, unintentionally or otherwise), then, except for the right of the Company to an injunction or injunctions, specific performance or other equitable relief pursuant to, and only to the extent expressly permitted by, Section 10.12, the Company’s right (subject to the terms, conditions and limitations hereof) to terminate this Agreement and receive the Parent Termination Fee pursuant to Section 8.3(a) shall be the sole and exclusive remedy (whether at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise) of the Acquired Companies and any former, current or future, direct or indirect, equityholder, director, officer, employee, agent, representative, Affiliate or assignee of any of the Acquired Companies (collectively, the “Company Parties”) against any member of the Parent Group, for any Losses suffered as a result of any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement (whether willfully, intentionally, unintentionally or otherwise) in this Agreement or failure to perform under this Agreement (whether willfully, intentionally, unintentionally or otherwise) or other failure of the Merger to be consummated (whether willfully, intentionally, unintentionally or otherwise). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company, on its behalf and on behalf of all Company Parties, hereby waives any rights or claims against any Lender in connection with this Agreement or the Debt Financing, whether at law or equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise and the Company, on its behalf and on behalf of all Company Parties, agrees not to commence any action or proceeding against any Lender in connection with this Agreement or the Debt Financing and agrees to cause any such action or proceeding asserted by any Company Party against any Lender in connection with this Agreement or the Debt Financing to be dismissed or otherwise terminated; provided that nothing in this sentence shall restrict the ability of the Company to cause or seek to cause Parent and Merger Sub to enforce their respective rights against the Lenders under the Debt Commitment Letter.

(d) Parent and Merger Sub each acknowledge the agreements contained in this Section 8.3 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and that, without these agreements, the Company would not enter into this Agreement, and that any amounts payable pursuant to this Section 8.3 do not constitute a penalty but constitute payment of liquidated damages and that the Company’s liquidated damages amount is reasonable in light of the substantial but indeterminate harm anticipated to be caused by Parent’s or Merger Sub’s breach or default under this Agreement, the difficulty of proof of loss and damages, the inconvenience and non-feasibility of otherwise obtaining an adequate remedy, and the value of the transactions to be consummated hereunder. Accordingly, if Parent fails to timely pay the Parent Termination Fee pursuant to this Section 8.3 and, in order to obtain such payment, the Company commences a lawsuit, the prevailing party in such lawsuit shall be entitled to recover from the other party its out-of-pocket reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) actually paid in connection with such lawsuit (which shall not, for the avoidance of doubt, include any other losses incurred by any Person in connection with this Agreement).

(e) The provisions of Sections 8.3(b), 8.3(c) and 8.3(d) are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each member of the Parent Group.

9.	INDEMNIFICATION.

9.1. Survival. All (a) representations and warranties contained in or made pursuant to this Agreement (other than the Fundamental Representations, the Healthcare Billing Representations and the HIPAA Representations) shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Closing for a period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on March 15, 2016 (the “First Survival End Date”), (b) Fundamental Representations shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Closing for a period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the date that is thirty-six (36) months following the Closing Date (the “Third Anniversary Survival End Date”) and (c) the Healthcare Billing Representations and the HIPAA Representations shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Closing for a period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the date that is twenty-four (24) months following the Closing Date (the “Second Anniversary Survival End Date” and, together with the First Survival End Date and the Third Anniversary Survival End Date, the “Survival End Dates”); provided, however, if written notice of an indemnification claim shall have been delivered in compliance with this Agreement (including the requirements of Section 9.2.6(a) and Section 9.2.6(d), as applicable) before the applicable Survival End Date with respect to any breach of any such representation or warranty, such representation or warranty shall survive, but solely with respect to the matter that is the subject of such indemnification claim notice, until such matter is finally resolved. All covenants and agreements contained herein that contemplate performance in full at or prior to the Closing (the “Pre-Closing Covenants”) shall not survive the Closing; provided, that a breach of such Pre-Closing Covenants may serve as the basis for a claim for indemnification under Section 9.2.1 or Section 9.2.3(a) based on a breach of or an inaccuracy in the compliance certificate delivered by the Company pursuant to Section 5.6 (to the extent related to Section 5.2) or by Parent pursuant to Section 6.3 (to the extent related to Section 6.2) so long as such claim for indemnification is brought on or prior to the First Survival End Date. All covenants and agreements contained herein that contemplate performance after the Closing (the “Post-Closing Covenants”) shall survive the Closing in accordance with their terms. Claims brought under Section 9.2.2(b) or Section 9.2.2(c) must be brought on or prior to the Third Anniversary Survival End Date.

(b) Misclassification Losses;

(c) any and all Losses imposed upon, suffered or incurred by such Parent Indemnified Persons as a result of or relating to Taxes of the Acquired Companies for any Pre-Closing Tax Period, to the extent not taken into account in the calculation of the final Net Working Capital finally determined pursuant to Section 2.11; or

9.2.3. Indemnification by Parent. Subject to the limitations and procedures set forth in this Article 9, from and after the Closing, Parent shall indemnify and hold harmless the Holders, the Holders’ Representative and each of their respective Affiliates, Subsidiaries, officers, directors, members, partners (general and limited), managers, employees, agents and other representatives and the Affiliates, Subsidiaries, officers, directors, members, partners (general and limited), managers, employees, agents and other representatives thereof as well as the successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives of the foregoing (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Persons”), from, against and in respect of any and all Losses imposed upon, suffered or incurred by such Seller Indemnified Persons as a result of or relating to any (a) breach of, or inaccuracy in, any representation or warranty made by Parent or Merger Sub in this Agreement or in the compliance certificate delivered by Parent pursuant to Section 6.3 or (b) up to $1,000,000 of reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees and other expert and professional expenses) incurred by a Seller Indemnified Person in successfully defending any claim asserting that it has indemnification obligations pursuant to Section 9.2.2(d).

For the avoidance of doubt, Limitation Exceptions Claims and claims pursuant to Section 9.2.2(b), Section 9.2.2(c), Section 9.2.2(d) and Section 9.2.3(b) shall not be subject to the De Minimis Exception.

(c) Except with respect to (i) Limitation Exceptions Claims (which shall not be subject to any deductible), (ii) claims pursuant to Section 9.2.2(b) (which shall be subject to the Misclassification Loss Deductible set forth in Section 9.2.4(d) below), (iii) claims pursuant to Section 9.2.2(c) (which shall not be subject to any deductible), (iv) claims pursuant to Section 9.2.2(d) (which shall be subject to the Healthcare Billing and HIPAA Loss Basket set forth in Section 9.2.4(e) below) and (v) claims pursuant to Section 9.2.3(b) (which shall be subject to the deductible set forth in last sentence of Section 9.2.4(e) below), neither the Parent Indemnified Persons (in respect of Section 9.2.1) nor the Seller Indemnified Persons (in respect of Section 9.2.3(a)) shall be entitled to assert any claim for indemnification until such time as the aggregate of all Indemnifiable Losses that such Parent Indemnified Persons may have under Section 9.2.1 or such Seller Indemnified Persons may have under Section 9.2.3(a), as applicable, exceed $3,000,000 (the “Deductible”), in which event the Parent Indemnified Persons or Seller Indemnified Persons, as applicable, shall be indemnified for all Indemnifiable Losses in excess of the Deductible (subject to the other limitations and procedures contained in this Article 9). For the avoidance of doubt, Limitation Exceptions Claims and claims pursuant to Section 9.2.2(b), Section 9.2.2(c), Section 9.2.2(d) and Section 9.2.3(b) shall not be subject to the Deductible.

(d) The Parent Indemnified Persons shall not be entitled to assert any claim for indemnification under Section 9.2.2(b) until such time as the aggregate Misclassification Losses that such Parent Indemnified Persons have suffered or incurred exceeds $250,000 (the “Misclassification Loss Deductible”), in which event the Parent Indemnified Persons shall be indemnified for all Misclassification Losses in excess of the Misclassification Loss Deductible (subject to the other limitations and procedures contained in this Article 9). The aggregate liability for indemnification claims under Section 9.2.2(b) shall not exceed $7,500,000.

(e) The Parent Indemnified Persons shall not be entitled to assert any claim for indemnification under Section 9.2.2(d) until such time as the aggregate Healthcare Billing and HIPAA Losses that such Parent Indemnified Persons have suffered or incurred and the other fees and expenses for which indemnification is to be provided under Section 9.2.2(d), collectively, exceeds $1,000,000 (the “Healthcare Billing and HIPAA Loss Basket”), in which event the Parent Indemnified Persons shall be indemnified for all Healthcare Billing and HIPAA Losses, including such Losses in the Healthcare Billing and HIPAA Loss Basket (subject to the other applicable limitations and procedures contained in this Article 9).

The Seller Indemnified Persons shall not be entitled to assert any claim for indemnification under Section 9.2.3(b) until such time as the aggregate fees and expenses for which indemnification is to be provided under Section 9.2.3(b) exceeds $250,000.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Article 9, and subject to the other limitations in this Article 9, the aggregate liability for indemnification claims under Sections 9.2.1 and 9.2.2 shall not exceed the sum of the cash merger consideration and stock merger consideration (valued at the Initial Value) actually received by, or held in escrow for the benefit of, the Holders pursuant to Article 2. The aggregate liability for indemnification claims under Sections 9.2.1 shall be limited to an amount equal to the Indemnity Escrow Amount and shall be payable only from the Indemnity Escrow Funds from time to time held in the Indemnity Escrow Account. Except with respect to Limitation Exceptions Claims, the aggregate liability for indemnification claims under Section 9.2.3(a) shall be limited to an amount equal to the Indemnity Escrow Amount and shall be paid directly by Parent to the applicable Seller Indemnified Person with respect to such Indemnifiable Loss. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Article 9, the maximum aggregate liability of any individual Holder pursuant to this Article 9 shall in no event exceed the sum of the portion of the cash merger consideration and the stock merger consideration (valued at the Initial Value) actually received by, or held in escrow for the benefit of, such Holder pursuant to Article 2.

(g) The amount of Losses for which indemnification is available under this Article 9 shall be calculated net of any insurance proceeds (net of any deductibles and costs or expenses of recovery, including any associated retropremiums) actually received by an Indemnified Person under insurance policies with respect to such Losses. In the event that any Indemnifying Party required to provide indemnification under this Article 9 makes any payment hereunder in respect of any Losses, such Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated, to the extent of such payment, to the rights of such Indemnified Person against any insurer or other third party with respect to such Losses (and the Indemnified Persons shall not take any actions to adversely affect such subrogation rights without the consent of the Indemnifying Party). In addition, the amount of Losses for which indemnification is available under this Article 9 shall be (i) in the case of claims under Section 9.2.1 or 9.2.2(c), calculated net of all amounts reflected in the Closing Debt Amount, the Seller Transaction Expenses or the Net Working Capital, as applicable, and (ii) in the case of any claims under Section 9.2.1, 9.2.2 or 9.2.3, reduced by any Tax benefit actually realized by the Parent Indemnified Persons or Seller Indemnified Persons, as applicable, on account of such Loss in the taxable year of such Loss or in a taxable year prior to such Loss (determined by comparing the Taxes that were actually paid taking into account any deductions attributable to such Loss in such taxable year with those Taxes that would have been payable in the absence of such deductions in such taxable year, and assuming that such deductions are the last item of deduction on the applicable Tax Return). For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 9.2.4(g) shall not apply with respect to claims against either Insurer under either Policy.

(h) No party will in any event be liable under this Article 9, and no claim for indemnification may in any event be asserted under this Article 9, for any loss of, or based on any multiple of, profits or earnings, any diminution in value or any incidental, punitive, indirect, special or consequential damages; provided, that an Indemnified Person may assert a claim for indemnification under this Article 9 for any Losses for incidental, punitive, indirect, special or consequential damages if such Indemnified Person is required by a Governmental Order to pay such damages to a third party.

9.2.5. Source of Recovery. Subject in all cases to the other limitations and procedures contained in this Article 9, all indemnification payments or reimbursements to any Parent Indemnified Person pursuant to this Article 9 shall be made as follows:

(a) Except with respect to the Limitation Exceptions Claims and claims pursuant to Section 9.2.2(b), Section 9.2.2(c) and Section 9.2.2(d), (i) from the Indemnity Escrow Account (but only if and to the extent that Indemnity Escrow Funds are available to pay for such Losses) or (ii) if the amount then on deposit in the Indemnity Escrow Account is not sufficient to make the payment in full to such Parent Indemnified Person, under the Policies, in an amount equal to the amount of any such deficiency.

(b) With respect to claims pursuant to Section 9.2.2(b), (i) from the Indemnity Escrow Account (but only if and to the extent that Indemnity Escrow Funds are available to pay for such Losses) and (ii) thereafter, if the amount then on deposit in the Indemnity Escrow Account is not sufficient to make the payment in full to such Parent Indemnified Person, from the Holders in an amount equal to the amount of any such deficiency, calculated for each Holder in accordance with its Pro Rata Share.

(c) With respect to the claims pursuant to Section 9.2.2(c), (i) first, from the Indemnity Escrow Account (but only if and to the extent that Indemnity Escrow Funds are available to pay for such Losses), (ii) second, at the Parent Indemnified Person’s option, to the extent that amounts are recoverable in respect of such Losses under the terms and conditions of the Policies (and, for clarity, to the extent any retention under the Policies is applicable to any Loss, the amount of such retention shall be deemed to be not recoverable), if the amount then on deposit in the Indemnity Escrow Account is not sufficient to make the payment in full to such Parent Indemnified Person, under the Policies, in an amount equal to the amount of any such deficiency, and (iii) third, if the Parent Indemnified Person elects not to seek payment or reimbursement under the Policies, or the amount then remaining under the Policies and not subject to claims thereunder is not sufficient to make the payment or reimbursement in full to such Parent Indemnified Person, from the Holders in an amount equal to the amount of any such deficiency, calculated for each Holder in accordance with its Pro Rata Share.

(d) With respect to any claims pursuant to Section 9.2.2(d), from the Healthcare Billing and HIPAA Escrow Account. Claims pursuant to Section 9.2.2(d) shall be satisfied through return by the Escrow Agent to Parent of such number of Remainder Escrow Parent Shares (the “Shares Subject to Claims”) as shall equal the applicable amount of Losses incurred by the Parent Indemnified Person divided by the greater of (i) the closing price of Parent Common Stock on the last trading day immediately prior to the date such claim is made by the Parent Indemnified Person (the “Claim Time Per Share Price”), and (ii) the Initial Value.

(e) With respect to the Limitation Exceptions Claims against the Holders, (i) first, from the Indemnity Escrow Account (but only if and to the extent that Indemnity Escrow Funds are available to pay for such Losses), (ii) second, to the extent that amounts are recoverable in respect of such Losses under the terms and conditions of the Policies (and, for clarity, to the extent any retention under the Policies is applicable to any Loss, the amount of such retention shall be deemed to be not recoverable), if the amount then on deposit in the Indemnity Escrow Account is not sufficient to make the payment in full to such Parent Indemnified Person, under the Policies, an amount equal to the amount of any such deficiency, and (iii) third, after such time as the aggregate Losses that the Parent Indemnified Persons have suffered or incurred (that are of the type addressed by Section 9.2.1 or 9.2.2(a)) exceed the amount of coverage available under the Policies not subject to other claims thereunder, from the Holders in an amount equal to the amount of any such deficiency, calculated for each Holder in accordance with its Pro Rata Share; provided, however, that (1) the Parent Indemnified Person shall seek recovery under the Policies, and shall not seek indemnification from the Holders with respect to such Limitations Exception Claims under Section 9.2.2(a) if, and to the extent, there is coverage available under either Policy not subject to claims thereunder, and (2) in each case without the prior written consent of the Holders’ Representative, Parent shall not amend or modify either Policy or any provisions thereof to reduce the coverage available thereunder, or amend or modify either Policy or any provisions thereof in a manner that would be adverse to the Holders, in each case, without the prior written consent of the Holders’ Representative.

(f) In the event any Parent Indemnified Person shall be entitled to receive payment or reimbursement of any amounts from a Holder pursuant to (b), (c) or (e) of this Section 9.2.5, as applicable, such amount shall be paid by each such Holder by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such Parent Indemnified Person to an account designated by such Parent Indemnified Person; provided, however, if the amount to be paid by a Holder exceeds the amount of cash merger consideration actually received by such Holder pursuant to Article 2, such deficiency shall be paid by such Holder to the Parent Indemnified Person by either, or a combination of, the following methods: (i) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such Parent Indemnified Person in an amount equal to the number of shares of Parent Company Stock received and previously disposed of by such Holder multiplied by the Initial Value thereof (for the avoidance of doubt, any shares of Parent Common Stock released from the Healthcare Billing and HIPAA Escrow Account in satisfaction of a claim for indemnification under Section 9.2.2(d) shall not constitute shares previously disposed of by a Holder for purposes of this clause (i)); and (ii) by return to Parent of that portion of the Parent Company Stock received (or held in escrow for), and not disposed of, by such Holder. If any such deficiency is to be paid pursuant to subsection (ii), and the applicable shares of stock merger consideration are then the Remainder Escrow Parent Shares, such deficiency shall be satisfied through return by the Escrow Agent to Parent of such number of Remainder Escrow Parent Shares equal to the amount of the remaining deficiency divided by the greater of (i) the closing price of Parent Common Stock on the last trading day immediately prior to the date of such release and (ii) the Initial Value.

9.2.6. Third Party Claims.

(a) Notice of Claim. If any third party (i.e., any Person who is not a party to this Agreement or an Affiliate thereof) notifies an Indemnified Person with respect to any matter (a “Third Party Claim”) which may give rise to a claim for indemnification hereunder against an Indemnifying Party, then such Indemnified Person will promptly (and, in any event, within thirty (30) days) give written notice thereof to the Indemnifying Party, said notice to describe in reasonable detail all facts and circumstances then known to such Indemnified Person with respect to such Third Party Claim and the claimed items and amounts of Losses with respect thereto, as well as all provisions of this Agreement that are the bases for the indemnification claim with respect to such Third Party Claim, and said notice shall enclose all documents then in the possession of the Indemnified Person with respect to such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that, subject to Section 9.1, no delay on the part of the Indemnified Person in notifying the Indemnifying Party will relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligation under this Article 9, except to the extent such delay actually and materially prejudices the Indemnifying Party.

(b) Assumption of Defense. The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any Third Party Claim that is the subject of a notice given by the Indemnified Person pursuant to Section 9.2.6(a). In addition, upon written notice to the Indemnified Person, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to defend the Indemnified Person against the Third Party Claim with counsel of its choice reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person; provided, however, that if the Third Party Claim involves any material customer or material supplier of any of the Acquired Companies, the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to defend or assume control of the defense of such Third Party Claim and may not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any compromise or settlement with respect to, such Third Party Claim unless such Indemnifying Party agrees to be (or in the case of an indemnity claim brought under Section 9.2.1 or Section 9.2.2, the Holders’ Representative agrees on behalf of the Holders that the Holders will be) fully responsible for all Losses arising from or relating to such Third Party Claim, subject to the other limitations and procedures in this Article 9. In such event, the Indemnified Person may retain separate co-counsel at its sole cost and expense and participate in the defense of the Third Party Claim (though not of record, and shall not communicate with the Person asserting the Third Party Claim, or such Person’s Representatives, without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed)); provided, however, that if (i) there exists, or would reasonably be likely to exist, a conflict of interest that would make it inappropriate in the commercially reasonable judgment of the Indemnified Person for the same counsel to represent both the Indemnified Person and the Indemnifying Party, or (ii) the Indemnified Person elects to pursue one or more defenses or counterclaims available to it that are inconsistent with one or more of those that are being pursued by the Indemnifying Party in respect of such Third Party Claim or any litigation relating thereto, then the Indemnified Person may participate in the defense of (but not compromise or settle) such Third Party Claim and may retain its own counsel in each jurisdiction for which the Indemnified Person reasonably determines counsel is required, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnifying Party shall not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any compromise or settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Person (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) unless such judgment, compromise or settlement (i) provides for the payment of money as sole relief for the claimant and (ii) subject to the making of such payment, results in the full and general release of such Indemnified Person from all liabilities arising from or relating to the Third Party Claim. For the avoidance of doubt, any amounts paid or to be paid by an Indemnifying Party in respect of its attorneys’ fees and other experts and professionals expenses incurred in connection with its defense, settlement or other resolution of any Third Party Claims, shall not be deemed to be Losses for purposes of this Article 9, and, in the case of any indemnification claim under Section 9.2.1, shall in no event be paid from the Indemnity Escrow Funds.

(c) Indemnified Person’s Control. If: (i) the Indemnifying Party does not deliver the notice contemplated by Section 9.2.6(b) within thirty (30) days after the Indemnified Person has given notice of the Third Party Claim pursuant to Section 9.2.6(a), (ii) the Indemnifying Party is not entitled to assume, or does not reasonably promptly assume and continue to pursue the defense of, the Third Party Claim following notice of such election, (iii) a Parent Indemnified Person is the Indemnified Person and the anticipated Losses in respect of such Third Party Claim would, or would reasonably be expected to, exceed the then-remaining balance of the applicable cap on liability set forth in Section 9.2.4 of this Agreement (reduced by the aggregate amount of all pending claims against it), (iv) the Third Party Claim involves any violation of any Legal Requirement or is brought by a Governmental Authority, (v) the Third Party Claim seeks injunctive or other nonmonetary relief against the Indemnified Person or (vi) the Third Party Claim relates to potential criminal liability, the Indemnified Person may defend, and may consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any compromise or settlement with respect to, the Third Party Claim at the expense of the Indemnifying Party; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party will not be bound by the entry of any such judgment consented to, or any such compromise or settlement effected, without its prior written consent (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), and the Indemnifying Party will cooperate in good faith in all reasonable respects with the conduct of such defense by the Indemnified Person and shall be permitted to participate in such defense at its sole cost and expense.

(d) Other Claims. In the event that any party to this Agreement proposes to make any claim for indemnification pursuant to this Article 9 and such claim does not involve a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Person making the claim shall deliver on or prior to the last date such claim may be made pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, in addition to an indemnification claim notice, a certificate signed by the Indemnified Person or an officer of the Indemnified Person (the “Claim Certificate”) to the Indemnifying Party, which Claim Certificate shall (a) describe in reasonable detail all relevant facts giving rise or relating to the claim; (b) specify the Section or Sections of this Agreement under which such claim is made; and (c) specify in reasonable detail each individual item of Loss, including the amount thereof if reasonably ascertainable, if known, the date such Losses were incurred, properly accrued or are anticipated to be incurred and the misrepresentation or breach to which such Losses are related.

(e) Policies. Notwithstanding the provisions set forth in clauses (b) and (c) of this Section 9.2.6 above, with respect to all claims for Losses made pursuant to Section 9.2.1 to the extent the procedures in this Section 9.2.6 are inconsistent with the procedures in the Policies with regard to matters such as settlement or defense of claims, the procedures in the Policies shall control but this does not relieve the Indemnified Party from its obligations to give notice to the Indemnifying Party under Section 9.2.6(a) or 9.2.6(d); provided, that the Holders and the Holders’ Representative shall not be obligated to indemnify any Parent Indemnified Person with respect to any settlement or other compromise of a Third Party Claim that is effected by an Insurer or Parent Indemnified Person without the prior written consent of the Holders’ Representative (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

9.2.7. Remedies Exclusive. The parties covenant and agree that from and after the Closing the remedies provided for in this Article 9 and under the Indemnity Escrow Agreement shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedy for all Losses that any Indemnified Person may suffer or incur arising from, or directly or indirectly relating to, the Acquired Companies, this Agreement or the Contemplated Transactions, and the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waive any other rights or remedies (whether at law or in equity and whether based on contract, tort, statute or otherwise) that they may otherwise have had, now have or may in the future have against any of the other parties hereto or any of the respective direct or indirect Affiliates, officers, managers, directors, employees, advisors, stockholders, members, consultants, investment bankers, brokers, controlling persons, partners, managers or other representatives or agents thereof (each of whom shall be an express third party beneficiary hereof) arising from, or directly or indirectly relating to, the Acquired Companies, this Agreement or the Contemplated Transactions and covenant not to ▇▇▇ or otherwise assert any claim (or assist any other Person in suing or otherwise asserting any claim) encompassed by the foregoing covenant, agreement and waiver; provided, however, that, subject to Section 9.3, the foregoing shall not apply to claims of common law fraud based on the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3 and 4, as applicable, and provided, further, that the foregoing shall not apply to the parties’ rights to seek specific performance as contemplated by Section 10.12 or a breach of contract action with respect to covenants to be performed after the Closing pursuant to this Agreement. Any Person who is sued or otherwise has a claim asserted against him, her or it in violation of this Section 9.2.7 may enforce the terms of this Section 9.2.7 directly as an express third-party beneficiary hereof.

9.2.8. Tax Treatment. The parties will treat any payment received pursuant to this Article 9 as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for Tax and financial reporting purposes to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements.

9.3. Acknowledgment. Each of Parent and Merger Sub acknowledges and agrees that (i) none of the Holders, the Holders’ Representative, the Acquired Companies or any of their respective Affiliates or Representatives has made or shall be deemed to have made, and neither Parent nor Merger Sub has relied on, any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement, express or implied, with respect to the Holders, the Holders’ Representative, the Acquired Companies, the Business, the subject matter of this Agreement or the Contemplated Transactions, or the accuracy or completeness of any information regarding the Holders, the Holders’ Representative, the Acquired Companies, the Business, the subject matter of this Agreement or the Contemplated Transactions furnished or made available to Parent, Merger Sub and their respective Representatives, other than the respective representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the Company that are expressly set forth in this Agreement and (ii) none of the Holders, the Holders’ Representative, any of the Acquired Companies or any of their respective Affiliates or Representatives shall have or be subject to any liability to Parent, Merger Sub or any other Person resulting from or in connection with the dissemination to Parent, Merger Sub, Parent’s Representatives or any other Person or the use by Parent, Merger Sub, Parent’s Representatives or any other Person of any such information, including any information, documents or material made available to Parent, Merger Sub or Parent’s Representatives in any “data room”, management presentation or in any other form in connection with or expectation of the entry into this Agreement or the Contemplated Transactions.

9.4. Third Party Remedies. If any Indemnified Person is at any time entitled (whether by reason of a contractual right, a right to take or bring a legal action, availability of insurance or otherwise) to recover from another Person (other than the Indemnifying Party or its Affiliates) any amount in respect of any matter giving rise to a Loss (whether before or after an Indemnifying Party has made a payment to the Indemnified Person hereunder and in respect thereof), the Indemnifying Party shall provide such reasonable support (not involving the incurrence of liabilities or payment of money that is not reimbursed by the Indemnified Person) as the Indemnified Person may reasonably request in connection therewith.

9.5. No Right of Contribution. None of the Holders shall have any claim or right to contribution or indemnity from the Surviving Corporation, any of the Acquired Companies or any of the other Parent Indemnified Parties (including under any provisions of any Organizational Documents, as amended, of the Surviving Corporation or any of the Acquired Companies or any indemnification or similar agreement) with respect to any Losses or claims for indemnification pursuant to this Article 9 or other amounts required to be paid by any of the Holders pursuant to this Agreement.

10.4. Severability.

In the event that any provision hereof would, under applicable Legal Requirements, be invalid or unenforceable in any respect, each party hereto intends that such provision will be construed by modifying or limiting it so as to be valid and enforceable to the maximum extent compatible with, and possible under, applicable Legal Requirements.

10.5. Amendment.

10.6. Parties in Interest.

10.11. Reliance. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that it has been informed by each other party that the provisions of Sections 10.9 and 10.10 constitute a material inducement upon which such party is relying and will rely in entering into this Agreement, and each such party agrees that any breach by such party of any of the provisions of Sections 10.9 or 10.10 above would constitute a material breach of this Agreement.

10.12. Specific Enforcement.

(a) Each of the parties acknowledges and agrees that the other parties would be damaged irreparably in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached or violated. Accordingly, each of the parties covenants and agrees that, without posting bond or similar undertaking, each of the other parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches or violations of the provisions of this Agreement and to the remedy of specific performance of this Agreement and the terms and provisions hereof in any action, suit or proceeding instituted in any court as specified in Section 10.9 having jurisdiction over the parties and the subject matter, in addition to any other remedy to which such party may be entitled, at law or in equity. Each party further covenants and agrees that, in the event of any action, suit or proceeding for specific performance in respect of such breach or violation, it shall not assert that a remedy at law would be adequate.

(b) Notwithstanding the right of the Company to obtain an injunction or injunctions, or other appropriate form of specific performance or equitable relief described in Section 10.12(a) above, no such right may be enforced to cause the Merger to be consummated, unless:

10.12.1. all conditions set forth in Article 5 were satisfied (except for delivery of certificates and other deliverables contemplated to be delivered at the Closing and which shall have been capable of being delivered on the date the Closing should have occurred pursuant to Section 2.2), at the time when the Closing would have occurred but for the failure of Parent and Merger Sub to complete the Closing at such time;

10.12.2. Parent and Merger Sub are required to complete the Closing pursuant to Section 2.2;

10.12.3. the Debt Financing has been funded or the lenders party to the Debt Financing Commitments have irrevocably confirmed in a written notice delivered to Parent that all conditions to the funding of the Debt Financing have been satisfied (other than any condition with respect to certificates or other deliverables contemplated to be delivered at the Closing) and the Debt Financing will be funded at the Closing;

10.12.4. the Company has irrevocably confirmed in a written notice delivered to Parent that if specific performance under this Section 10.12 is granted and the Debt Financing is funded, then the Closing will occur; and

10.12.5. Parent and Merger Sub have not consummated the Merger.

10.13. Holders’ Representative.

10.13.1. As an integral component of the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Merger, the Holders’ Representative is hereby irrevocably appointed, authorized and empowered as the representative of the Holders and their respective successors and assigns and as the attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution and re-substitution, and exclusive agent for and on behalf of each such Holder for purposes of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement and is empowered to take such actions contemplated to be taken by the Holders’ Representative under this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement and such other actions on behalf of such Holders as it may deem necessary or appropriate in connection with, or to consummate, the Contemplated Transactions, including (i) taking all actions and making all filings on behalf of such Holders with any Governmental Authority or other Person necessary to effect the consummation of the Contemplated Transactions, (ii) making all determinations, decisions and judgments, making all filings, entering into all Contracts, to prosecute, defend, settle or otherwise compromise all Actions and claims and to take all other actions, in each case on behalf of all or any subset of the Holders as required by or in connection with this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement or the Contemplated Transactions, and providing any consents or waivers with respect to any of the foregoing, (iii) taking any and all other actions on behalf of all or any subset of the Holders and their respective successors and assigns as the Holders’ Representative may from time to time deem necessary or desirable to resolve or settle claims, disagreements, disputes or Actions under or relating to this Agreement or any Escrow Agreement or otherwise relating to the Contemplated Transactions, (iv) to receive process on behalf of any or all of the Holders and their respective successors and assigns in any claim or Action in any way relating to this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement or the Contemplated Transactions and to file any proofs of debt, claims and petitions as the Holders’ Representative may deem necessary, appropriate or desirable in connection therewith and to file and prosecute appeals from any decision, judgment or award rendered in any such Action, (v) enforcing any rights or remedies of any of the Holders under this Agreement or in connection with the Contemplated Transactions, (vi) negotiating and executing any waivers or amendments of this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement and (vii) taking all other actions that are either necessary or appropriate in its judgment for the accomplishment of the foregoing or contemplated by the terms of this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement. The Holders’ Representative hereby accepts such appointment.

10.13.2. A decision, act, consent or instruction of the Holders’ Representative hereunder will constitute a decision, act, consent or instruction of all Holders and will be final, binding and conclusive upon each of such Holders, and the Escrow Agent and Parent may rely upon any such decision, act, consent or instruction of the Holders’ Representative as being the decision, act, consent or instruction of each and every such Holder.

10.13.3. The Holders’ Representative will have the right to recover, at its sole discretion, from the Holders’ Representative Fund, prior to any distribution to the Holders, (i) the Holders’ Representative’s out-of-pocket expenses (including fees and charges of counsel, accountants or other agents) incurred in serving in that capacity and (ii) any amounts to which it is entitled pursuant to the indemnification provision in Section 10.13.5 (each item in clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section 10.13.3 referred to as a “Holders’ Representative Expenses”). In the event the amount of the Holders’ Representative Fund available to satisfy Holders’ Representative Expenses (the “Remaining Fund Property”) is insufficient to satisfy all Holders’ Representative Expenses, then each Holder will be obligated to pay its Pro Rata Share of the Holders’ Representative Expenses in excess of the Remaining Fund Property.

10.13.4. The Holders’ Representative will incur no liability with respect to any action taken or suffered by any party in reliance upon any notice, direction, instruction, consent, statement or other document believed by the Holders’ Representative to be genuine and to have been signed by the proper person (and the Holders’ Representative will have no responsibility to determine the authenticity thereof), nor for any other action or inaction. In all questions arising under this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement, the Holders’ Representative may rely on the advice of outside counsel, and the Holders’ Representative will not be liable to any Holder for anything done, omitted or suffered in good faith by the Holders’ Representative based on such advice.

10.13.5. The Holders will severally (each based on and limited to its Pro Rata Share) but not jointly indemnify the Holders’ Representative and hold the Holders’ Representative harmless against any loss, liability or expense incurred, on the part of the Holders’ Representative and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the Holders’ Representative’s duties hereunder, including the fees and expenses of any legal counsel or other agents retained by the Holders’ Representative.

10.13.6. In the event that the Holders’ Representative becomes unable or unwilling to continue in its capacity as Holders’ Representative, or if the Holders’ Representative resigns as a Holders’ Representative, a majority-in-interest of the Holders may, by written consent, appoint a new representative as the Holders’ Representative. Notice and a copy of the written consent appointing such new representative and bearing the signatures of a majority-in-interest of the Holders must be delivered to Parent and, if applicable, the Escrow Agent. Such appointment will be effective upon the later of the date indicated in the consent or the date such consent is received by Parent and, if applicable, the Escrow Agent. For the purposes of this Section 10.13, a “majority-in-interest of the Holders” means Holders representing in the aggregate a Pro Rata Share of greater than 50%.

10.13.7. From time to time, as necessary (in the good faith judgment of the Holders’ Representative), the Holder’s Representative shall update the Pro-Rata Schedule by delivery of written notice to the Parent. Following the Closing, any payments to be made to the Stockholders shall be made to such Stockholders by the Surviving Corporation, or Escrow Agent, as applicable, in accordance with this Agreement, the Transmittal Documents and the Pro-Rata Schedule. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall not be liable for payment of any wrong amount to the Stockholders following the Closing to the extent such amount was calculated consistently by the Surviving Corporation using the percentages set forth in the Pro-Rata Schedule.

10.13.8. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in in this Agreement or any Escrow Agreement, (i) no Holder shall have any right to, or any interest or claim relating to the Escrow Funds or the Holders’ Representative Fund unless and until it has been finally determined in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement that such funds or other property are to be distributed to such Holder in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement, as applicable.

10.14. No Waiver. No failure or delay on the part of any party hereto in the exercise of any right hereunder will impair such right or be construed to be a waiver of, or acquiescence in, any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement herein, nor will any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or of any other right. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provision hereof (whether or not similar), or shall constitute a continuing waiver unless otherwise expressly provided. No waiver of any right or remedy hereunder shall be valid unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the party against whom such waiver is intended to be effective.

10.15. Negotiation of Agreement. 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.

10.16. Disclosure Schedules. The inclusion of any information in the Disclosure Schedules will not be deemed an admission or acknowledgment that such information is required to be listed in the Disclosure Schedules or that such items are material. The Disclosure Schedules are arranged in sections corresponding to the sections contained in this Agreement merely for convenience, and the disclosure of an item in one section of the Disclosure Schedules as an exception to a particular covenant, agreement, representation or warranty will be deemed adequately disclosed as an exception with respect to all other covenants, agreements, representations and warranties to the extent that the relevance of such item to such other covenants, representations, agreements or warranties is reasonably apparent, notwithstanding the presence or absence of a specific cross-reference thereto.

10.17. Headings. The headings contained in this Agreement are inserted only for reference as a matter of convenience and in no way define, limit or describe the scope or intent of this Agreement, and will not affect in any way the construction, meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

10.18. Counterparts; Signature.

Signatures to this Agreement may be delivered by facsimile or pdf by any party and such signature will be deemed binding for all purposes hereof without delivery of an original signature being thereafter required.
