Subject to and in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Closing or the Delayed Closing (as applicable), Purchaser will purchase, or will cause an Affiliate designated by Purchaser (a “Purchaser Designee”) to purchase, from each Seller, and each Seller will sell, and if requested by Purchaser will cause the Nominees (where applicable and provided the Purchaser Designee is permitted to be a nominee under local Law) to sell, to Purchaser or a Purchaser Designee or other Person designated by Purchaser, the Equity Interests of the Companies listed opposite each Seller’s and Nominee’s name in Exhibit B attached hereto (collectively, the “Company Interests”); provided that as a condition to any Purchaser Designee’s purchase of any Company Interests, such Purchaser Designee shall execute an instrument in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Sellers pursuant to which such Purchaser Designee agrees to be bound as a “Purchaser” under this Agreement.

Section 1.2 Purchase Price. Subject to and in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement:

(a) The aggregate purchase price for the Company Interests shall equal $34,225,000 (the “Pre-Adjustment Purchase Price”), increased or decreased pursuant to the purchase price adjustments set forth in Section 1.2(c) and Section 1.3 (the “Purchase Price”).

(b) The Purchase Price shall be allocated in accordance with the methodology set forth in Exhibit C attached hereto.

(i) $34,225,000, minus (a) the Closing Adjustment Amount minus (b) any Transaction Cost Deficiency minus (c) the Payment Obligations minus (d) Borrowed Money Debt minus (e) the Delayed Payment Amounts plus (f) the Retained Insurance Claims Value (the “Closing Amount”), shall be delivered by Purchaser by wire transfer to the Sellers as directed by the Seller Representative at the Closing;

(ii) $2,775,000 (the “Indemnification Escrow Amount”) shall be deposited at the Closing by Purchaser, by wire transfer into an escrow account (the “Indemnification Escrow Account”) designated by the Escrow Agent. The Indemnification Escrow Amount shall be Purchaser’s until such amounts are disbursed by the Escrow Agent in accordance with this Agreement and an Escrow Agreement, in form and substance as set forth on Exhibit D attached hereto (the “Escrow Agreement”), to be entered into at the Closing among the Seller Representative, Purchaser and the Escrow Agent. Except as otherwise provided in the Escrow Agreement, interest accrued on the Indemnification Escrow Amount shall be paid to the Sellers and Purchaser, as the case may be, in proportion to the disbursements of the Indemnification Escrow Amount made to the Sellers and Purchaser and each party to this Agreement shall be responsible

Page 3 of 81

Equity Interest Purchase Agreement

for any Taxes payable on the portion of the Indemnification Escrow Amount and accrued interest thereon disbursed to such party to this Agreement; provided, however, that to the extent Taxes are payable on the income earned on the Indemnification Escrow Amount or any portion thereof, prior to the disbursement of such amounts to the Sellers or Purchaser, Purchaser shall be responsible for the payment of such Taxes; and

(iii) the Delayed Payment Amounts shall be deposited into an escrow account (the “Delayed Payment Escrow Account”) designated by the Escrow Agent, to be held and disbursed by the Escrow Agent in accordance with this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement. The Delayed Payment Amounts shall be Purchaser’s until such amounts are disbursed by the Escrow Agent in accordance with this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement. Except as otherwise provided in the Escrow Agreement, interest accrued on the Delayed Payment Amounts shall be paid to the Sellers and Purchaser, as the case may be, in proportion to the disbursements of the Delayed Payment Amount made to the Sellers and Purchaser and each party to this Agreement shall be responsible for any Taxes payable on the Delayed Payment Amounts and accrued interest thereon disbursed to such party to this Agreement; provided, however, that to the extent Taxes are payable on the income earned on the Delayed Payment Amounts or any portion thereof, prior to the disbursement of such amounts to the Sellers or Purchaser, Purchaser shall be responsible for the payment of such Taxes. In the event that the Delayed Closing of a Delayed Closing Company fails to occur on or before the first anniversary of the Closing Date, the Parties agree to instruct the Escrow Agent to release the Delayed Payment Amount relating to such Delayed Closing Company to Purchaser.

(d) If required to deposit an amount into escrow pursuant to Section 1.3(a), Purchaser shall deposit such amount at the Closing by wire transfer into an escrow account (the “Working Capital Escrow Account”) designated by the Escrow Agent, to be held and disbursed by the Escrow Agent in accordance with the Escrow Agreement. The Seller Representative and Purchaser shall execute and deliver to the Escrow Agent joint written instructions directing the Escrow Agent to disburse the funds in the Working Capital Escrow Account upon (and in accordance with) the final resolution of Net Working Capital pursuant to Section 1.3. Notwithstanding the foregoing and anything else contained herein to the contrary, Purchaser may in its sole election furnish to the Sellers a letter of credit equal to the amount that Purchaser would have been required to contribute to the Working Capital Escrow Account in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Seller Representative in lieu of depositing an amount into escrow pursuant to Section 1.3(a), and upon furnishing such letter of credit to the Sellers, shall have satisfied its obligations under Section 1.3(a) with respect to the deposit of amounts into the Working Capital Escrow Account.

Except as otherwise provided in the Escrow Agreement, interest accrued on the amount deposited into the Working Capital Escrow Account shall be paid to the Sellers and Purchaser, as the case may be, in proportion to the disbursements of such amount made to the Sellers and Purchaser and each party to this Agreement shall be responsible for any Taxes payable on such amount from the Working Capital Escrow Account and accrued interest thereon disbursed to such party to this Agreement; provided, however, that to the extent Taxes are payable on the income earned on the Working Capital Escrow Account or any portion thereof, prior to the disbursement of such amounts to the Sellers or Purchaser, Purchaser shall be responsible for the payment of such Taxes.

(e) Each Seller hereby agrees that none of Purchaser or its Affiliates shall have any responsibility to see to the payment of the appropriate portion of the Purchase Price to the

Page 4 of 81

Equity Interest Purchase Agreement

appropriate Seller (including any amounts distributed pursuant to Section 1.2(c), Section 1.3(d) or ARTICLE VIII of this Agreement or pursuant to the Escrow Agreement), and that Purchaser’s sole responsibility with respect to payment of the Purchase Price shall be to (i) make payment of the Closing Amount to such accounts of the Sellers as are specified in writing by the Seller Representative, (ii) make payment of the Indemnification Escrow Amount to the Indemnification Escrow Account and, if applicable, the payment of the amount required in Section 1.3(a) into the Working Capital Escrow Account, (iii) execute and deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent in accordance with Section 1.6, (iv) make payment of the Seller Favorable Final Adjustment Amount, if any, and (v) pay applicable withholding Taxes described in Section 1.7.

Section 1.3 Adjustments to Pre-Adjustment Purchase Price.

(a) No later than seven (7) Business Days prior to the Closing, the Seller Representative will deliver to Purchaser a good faith estimate of the Net Working Capital of the Business at and as of 11:59 p.m. CDT on June 30, 2010 (the “Initial Net Working Capital Estimate”). Purchaser and its representatives, including Ernst & Young LLP or such other similar firm as Purchaser shall designate, will be entitled to review all work papers of the Sellers, the Companies and Company Subsidiaries and their respective representatives, including their independent accountants, relating to the calculation of the Initial Net Working Capital Estimate. If Purchaser disputes in good faith the Initial Net Working Capital Estimate (or any portion thereof) prior to the Closing, then Purchaser and the Sellers will negotiate in good faith for sixty (60) days, if necessary, to attempt to resolve any such dispute at or prior to the Closing; provided, however, that:

(i) if Purchaser and the Sellers cannot agree on the Initial Net Working Capital Estimate prior to the Closing and the difference between the estimated Net Working Capital calculated by Purchaser in good faith and the estimated Net Working Capital calculated by the Seller Representative in good faith, in each case at and as of 11:59 p.m. CDT on June 30, 2010, is $1,000,000 or less, the Net Working Capital of the Business at and as of 11:59 p.m. CDT on June 30, 2010 shall be deemed to equal the average of Purchaser’s good faith calculation of such estimated Net Working Capital and the Sellers’ good faith calculation of such estimated Net Working Capital; and

(ii) if Purchaser and the Sellers cannot agree on the Initial Net Working Capital Estimate prior to the Closing and the difference between the estimated Net Working Capital calculated by Purchaser and the estimated Net Working Capital calculated by the Sellers, in each case at and as of 11:59 p.m. CDT on June 30, 2010, is greater than $1,000,000, then (A) the Net Working Capital of the Business at and as of 11:59 p.m. CDT on June 30, 2010 shall be equal to Purchaser’s good faith calculation of such estimated Net Working Capital and (B) such estimated Net Working Capital calculations of Purchaser and the Sellers shall be submitted to the Referee in accordance with the dispute resolution mechanisms set forth in Section 1.3(c).

The estimated Net Working Capital of the Business at and as of 11:59 p.m. CDT on June 30, 2010, as it may be agreed upon by Purchaser and the Sellers or determined pursuant to clauses (i) or (ii) of this Section 1.3(a) above, shall be the referred to as the “Estimated Net Working Capital.” If the Estimated Net Working Capital is determined pursuant to clause (ii)(A) above, then Purchaser shall deposit, into the Working Capital Escrow Account in accordance with Section 1.2(d), the amount by which the Estimated Net Working Capital exceeds the Base Amount. If the Estimated Net Working Capital is less than the Base Amount, then the

Page 5 of 81

Equity Interest Purchase Agreement

Pre-Adjustment Purchase Price shall be decreased at Closing by the amount of such deficit (the “Closing Adjustment Amount”).

(b) As promptly as practicable, but in any event within 75 days after the Closing Date, Purchaser will prepare and deliver to the Seller Representative a balance sheet of the Business at and as of immediately prior to the Closing (the “Final Balance Sheet”) and a calculation of the Net Working Capital as derived from the Final Balance Sheet. The Final Balance Sheet will be prepared in accordance with this Agreement and consistent with past practice in the operation of the Business. Following the delivery of the Final Balance Sheet to the Seller Representative, Purchaser will afford the Seller Representative and its representatives an opportunity to examine the Final Balance Sheet and such supporting schedules and analyses, and the relevant portions of the books and records of the Companies and the Company Subsidiaries, as are reasonably necessary and appropriate to evaluate the Final Balance Sheet and Purchaser’s calculation of the Net Working Capital as derived from the Final Balance Sheet.

(c) If within 30 days following delivery of the Final Balance Sheet to the Seller Representative, the Seller Representative has not delivered to Purchaser written notice of its objections to the Final Balance Sheet (such notice must contain a statement describing in reasonable detail the basis of such objections) (the “Objection Notice”), then the Final Balance Sheet shall be deemed final and conclusive. If the Seller Representative delivers the Objection Notice within such 30-day period, then Purchaser and the Seller Representative shall endeavor in good faith to resolve the objections, for a period not to exceed 15 days from the date of delivery of the Objection Notice. If at the end of such 15-day period there are any objections that remain in dispute, then the remaining objections in dispute shall be submitted for resolution to the Houston office of Deloitte & Touche, or if Deloitte & Touche is unable or unwilling to accept the engagement, then to a Person mutually acceptable to the Seller Representative and Purchaser (in each case, the “Referee”). The Referee shall determine any unresolved items within 30 days after the objections that remain in dispute are submitted to it, and Purchaser and the Seller Representative shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with any investigations of the Referee. If any remaining objections are submitted to the Referee for resolution:

(i) the Sellers and Purchaser shall furnish to the Referee such work papers and other documents and information relating to such objections as the Referee may request and are available to that party or its Subsidiaries (or its independent public accountants) and will be afforded the opportunity to present to the Referee any material relating to the determination of the matters in dispute and to discuss such determination with the Referee;

(ii) to the extent that a value has been assigned to any objection that remains in dispute, the Referee shall not assign a value to such objection that is greater than the greatest value for such objection claimed by either the Seller Representative or Purchaser or less than the smallest value for such objection claimed by either such party;

(iii) the determination by the Referee as set forth in a written notice delivered to the Seller Representative and Purchaser by the Referee, shall be made in accordance with this Agreement and shall be binding and conclusive on the parties to this Agreement, shall constitute an arbitral award that is final, binding and unappealable and upon which a judgment may be entered by a court having jurisdiction thereof and shall be in substitution of and precludes the bringing of any Proceedings in any court in

Page 6 of 81

Equity Interest Purchase Agreement

connection with any dispute under this Section 1.3 (other than for enforcement of the final award); and

Section 5.5 Publicity; Disclosure. Prior to the Closing, no press release or public announcement related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated herein may be issued or made by or on behalf of any party to this Agreement without the approval of the Seller Representative and Purchaser, unless required by law or stock exchange requirement (in the reasonable opinion of counsel for the party making the disclosure), in which case the other party shall have the right to review such press release or announcement prior to publication. In addition, prior to the Closing, the parties to this Agreement shall not disclose, and shall cause their respective partners, officers, directors, employees, stockholders, members, managers and other agents not to disclose, to any third party other than legal, tax and similar advisors in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any letter of intent related to this Agreement between any of the parties hereto (a “Letter of Intent”), and the existence of the proposed transactions and of any Letter of Intent, except that the parties to this Agreement may (a) disclose such information to any bank, lender (including a pension fund) or other financial institution (or such Person’s consultants and legal counsel) that provides financing to the Sellers or any of their Affiliates (including YRCW), (b) disclose such information to any Person (including a Governmental Authority) for the sole purpose of obtaining a consent or approval of such Person listed in Section 2.3(b), Section 3.2(a) or Section 3.2(b) to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (c) make any disclosure required to be made by it under Law (including federal securities laws) provided that (i) in the case of a disclosure described in clause (c), the Sellers shall have advised Purchaser at least two (2) Business Days prior to any such disclosure, if the Sellers determine that such disclosure is required under applicable securities laws and (ii) prior to making any disclosure of information covered by this Section 5.5, such party will use commercially reasonable efforts to notify the other parties thereof and cooperate with such other parties with respect thereto to the extent requested in order to preserve confidentiality.

Page 45 of 81

Equity Interest Purchase Agreement

given the Companies and the Company Subsidiaries a reasonable period of time to seek such relief prior to any disclosure by such Seller), no Seller shall divulge, disclose, furnish or make accessible to anyone or use in any way any confidential or secret knowledge or information of the Companies or the Company Subsidiaries including, but not limited to, trade secrets, confidential or secret designs, processes, formulae, plans, devices or material (whether or not patented or patentable) directly or indirectly used in the Business, any customer or supplier lists of the Companies or the Company Subsidiaries, any confidential or secret development or research work of the Companies or the Company Subsidiaries, or any other confidential information or secret aspects of the Business. The Sellers acknowledge that the above-described knowledge or information constitutes a unique and valuable asset of the Companies and the Company Subsidiaries and represents a substantial investment of time and expense by the Companies and the Company Subsidiaries, and that any disclosure or use of such knowledge or information by a Seller would be wrongful and would cause irreparable harm to the Companies and the Company Subsidiaries, entitling the Companies and Company Subsidiaries to obtain equitable relief without having to post bond.

Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to, effective as of the Closing Date, replace the Seller Credit Enhancements with new arrangements, including obtaining and posting substitute bonds, sureties, letters of credit or guaranties or assuming existing Seller Credit Enhancements; provided, however, that Purchaser shall replace the Seller Credit Enhancements listed under the heading “Bonds and Letters of Credit - US” on Schedule 5.8 in the manner described in this sentence within five (5) Business Days after the Closing. The Sellers shall not, and shall cause the Companies and Company Subsidiaries not to, withdraw or replace the deposits in the amount of £1,700,000 and €225,000 in connection with the Euler Hermes Guarantees (as defined in the Disclosure Schedules) prior to or upon Closing.

(a) The Sellers shall have the right (at the Sellers’ sole risk, cost and expense) to control the conduct of any Tax Contest, that would, if pursued successfully, result in or give rise to a claim for Indemnified Tax Losses (as defined in Section 5.10). Purchaser and the relevant Companies and Company Subsidiaries shall be entitled to attend and participate in any such proceeding at their sole cost and expense. Purchaser (at Purchaser’s sole risk, cost and expense) shall control all other Tax Contests with respect to the Companies and the Company Subsidiaries. If the Companies or the Sellers receive any written or oral communication with respect to a claim for Indemnified Tax Losses, then the Sellers or Purchaser (on behalf of the Companies and Company Subsidiaries) shall promptly notify the other party hereto in writing of the existence of such Tax claim. The party controlling any Tax Contest that would, if pursued successfully, result in or give rise to a claim for Indemnified Tax Losses, shall not settle or compromise such Tax

Contest without the prior written consent of the other party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(b) The Sellers and Purchaser shall, and Purchaser shall cause the Companies and the Company Subsidiaries to, cooperate and consult in good faith with each other (i) during the course of the preparation of U.S. federal, state, regional, county, provincial, municipal, local or non-U.S. Tax Returns of the Companies for periods ending on or before the Closing Date (collectively, the “Pre-Closing Tax Period”) and the portion of any Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date, and (ii) in connection with any adjustment, claim or question asserted or raised by any Tax authority with respect to the Companies and in respect of any Pre-Closing Tax Period or the portion of any Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date. Such cooperation shall include the retention as set forth in the next sentence, and (upon the request and at the expense of the other party) the provision of records and information that are reasonably relevant to any such Tax Return or Tax Contest, and making themselves and employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material information provided hereunder. The Sellers and Purchaser agree, and Purchaser shall cause its Affiliates (including the Companies and Company Subsidiaries), (A) to retain all books and records in their possession with respect to Tax matters relating to the Companies and the Company Subsidiaries for any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until the expiration of the statute of limitations (and, to the extent notified by Purchaser or the Sellers, any extensions thereof) of the respective taxable periods, and to abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any Governmental Authority, and (B) to give the other party reasonable written notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any such books and records and, if the other party so requests, Purchaser or the Sellers shall, and Purchaser shall cause its Affiliates (including the Companies and Company Subsidiaries) to, allow such party to take possession of such books and records. YRCW will provide to Purchaser on or prior to the Closing Date a complete list of Tax Returns that are required to be filed for, by, on behalf of, or with respect to any of the Companies or any Company Subsidiary, including a list of the required filing date for each such Tax Return (determined as if the purchase and sale of the Company Interests would not occur).

ARTICLE VIII

INDEMNIFICATION

Section 8.1 Indemnification.

(a) Indemnification by the Sellers. Subject to the provisions of this ARTICLE VIII, from and after the Closing each of the Sellers shall, jointly and severally, indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser Indemnified Parties from and against any and all Purchaser Indemnified Losses:

(i) up to an aggregate amount equal to the Indemnification Escrow Amount; and

(ii) otherwise to the extent indemnification in excess of an amount equal to the Indemnification Escrow Amount is permitted pursuant to Section 8.6 or Section 9.2.

For the avoidance of doubt, except as otherwise provided in the TSA, and without limiting the indemnification obligations of the Seller Indemnifying Parties hereunder (including the indemnification obligations of the Seller Indemnifying Parties hereunder with respect to the Retained Insurance Claims), the Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that the Sellers shall not have responsibility under this Agreement with respect to Post-Closing Claims. When determining the amount of any Indemnified Losses resulting from a breach or inaccuracy of a representation or warranty or a breach of a covenant, in each case contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, any and all materiality qualifications contained in such representation, warranty or covenant, including the term “Material Adverse Effect,” will be ignored and not given effect.

(b) Indemnification by Purchaser. Subject to the provisions of this ARTICLE VIII, from and after the Closing, Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless the Seller Indemnified Parties from and against any and all Seller Indemnified Losses:

(i) up to an aggregate amount equal to the Indemnification Escrow Amount; and

Page 64 of 81

Equity Interest Purchase Agreement

(ii) otherwise to the extent indemnification in excess of an amount equal to the Indemnification Escrow Amount is permitted pursuant to Section 8.6 or Section 9.2.

(c) Remedies. Except as permitted pursuant to Section 9.2 and except for a dispute that is subject to the dispute resolution procedures set forth in Section 1.3 or Section 5.9(e), from and after the Closing the indemnification rights of the Indemnified Parties contained in this ARTICLE VIII shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedy of the Indemnified Parties for any and all Indemnified Losses arising out of or related to this Agreement (including breaches of any representations and warranties set forth herein).

Section 8.2 Defense of Third-Party Claims.

(a) In the event an Indemnified Party becomes aware of a claim by a Person not a party to this Agreement (a “Third-Party Claim”) which such Indemnified Party believes may result in an indemnification claim pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party, such Indemnified Party shall promptly (but in no event more than fifteen (15) days) after becoming aware of such Third-Party Claim, give written notice to the Seller Representative (if the Indemnifying Party is a Seller Indemnifying Party) or Purchaser (if the Indemnifying Party is Purchaser) of such Third-Party Claim, but the failure to promptly notify the Indemnifying Party will not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability that it may have to the Indemnified Party, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party demonstrates that the defense of such action is materially and adversely prejudiced by the Indemnified Party’s failure to give such prompt notice. For avoidance of doubt and solely for purposes of the preceding sentence, any claim by Austin Ventures IX, L.P. or Austin Ventures X, L.P. shall be a direct claim and not a Third Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right in its sole discretion to conduct the defense of and to settle or resolve any such claim if:

(i) the Indemnifying Party:

(A) acknowledges and agrees that:

(1) any and all damages, losses, claims, liabilities, demands, charges, suits, judgments, penalties, fines, fees, costs, and out-of-pocket expenses (including court costs, reasonable attorney’s fees and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred in investigating and preparing for, or otherwise in connection with, any Proceeding) (collectively, “Losses”) sustained, suffered or incurred by the Indemnified Parties arising out of or relating to such Third Party Claim, excluding all fees, expenses and costs with respect to the defense of such Third Party Claim incurred while the Indemnifying Party satisfies the conditions in this Section 8.2(a), shall be deemed to be Purchaser Indemnified Losses; and

(2) except for the limits on indemnification in Section 8.6, the Indemnifying Party shall not have any power or authority to object under any provision of this ARTICLE VIII to the amount of any such Losses or to the characterization of such Losses as Purchaser Indemnified Losses;

Page 65 of 81

Equity Interest Purchase Agreement

(B) indemnifies the Indemnified Parties for all Indemnified Losses sustained, suffered or incurred by any of the Indemnified Parties in connection with, or related to, or arising out of, such Third-Party Claim;

(D) provides promptly evidence that it possesses the financial resources to conduct the defense;

(ii) within thirty (30) days of receiving notice of such Third-Party Claim from the Indemnified Party (or such shorter period as may be required to respond to such Third-Party Claim under requirements of Law), the Indemnifying Party confirms in a written instrument delivered to the Indemnified Party its obligation and willingness to take each of the actions described in clause (i) above; and

(iii) the total potential liability to the Indemnified Party from such Third-Party Claim (based on the good faith estimates of the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party) is less than two hundred percent (200%) of the amount:

(A) then remaining in the Indemnification Escrow Account and not subject to prior claims for Purchaser Escrow Losses, if the Indemnified Party is a Purchaser Indemnified Party; or

(B) determined by subtracting all amounts paid by Purchaser and subject to outstanding claims for Seller Escrow Losses from the total amount of the Indemnification Escrow Amount at Closing, if the Indemnified Party is a Seller Indemnified Party (such items in clauses (i) through (iii) collectively, the “Conditions”).

If all of the Conditions are met and the Indemnifying Party elects to conduct the defense of such Third-Party Claim:

(I) Purchaser (if the Indemnifying Party is a Seller Indemnifying Party) or the Sellers (if the Indemnifying Party is Purchaser) shall have the right to:

(A) receive copies of all pleadings, notices and communications with respect to the Third-Party Claim to the extent that receipt of such documents does not adversely affect the availability of any privilege relating to any Indemnifying Party; and

(B) have reasonable access to counsel to the Indemnifying Party;

(II) the Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Parties, settle or compromise, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to, such Third Party Claim if such settlement, compromise or judgment:

(A) involves non-monetary obligations that would reasonably be expected to have a direct, significant and adverse effect on the business of the Indemnified Parties; or

Page 66 of 81

Equity Interest Purchase Agreement

(B) involves obligations other than the payment of money by the Indemnifying Parties and customary mutual releases or does not include as an unconditional term thereof the release by the Persons making such Third Party Claim of the Indemnified Parties from all liability with respect to such Third Party Claim; and

(III) the Indemnifying Party must diligently conduct the defense of such Third-Party Claim in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner and fulfill its indemnification obligations described in Section 8.2(a)(i).

(b) If any of the Conditions are not met, or if any of the Conditions fail to continue to be met after an Indemnifying Party has elected to conduct the defense of a Third-Party Claim pursuant to Section 8.2(a) above, the Indemnified Party may, by notice to the Indemnifying Party, elect at any time to assume the exclusive right to defend, compromise or settle such Third-Party Claim, in which case:

(i) the Indemnified Party must diligently conduct the defense of such Third-Party Claim in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner;

(ii) Purchaser (if the Indemnified Party is a Seller Indemnified Party) or the Sellers (if the Indemnified Party is a Purchaser Indemnified Party) shall have the right to:

(B) have reasonable access to counsel to the Indemnified Parties;

(iii) the Indemnified Parties shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, settle or compromise, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to, such Third Party Claim if such settlement, compromise or judgment:

(A) involves non-monetary obligations that would reasonably be expected to have a direct, material and adverse effect on the business of the Indemnifying Party or its Subsidiaries; or

(B) involves obligations other than the payment of money by the Indemnified Parties and customary mutual releases or does not include as an unconditional term thereof the release by the Persons making such Third Party Claim of the Indemnified Parties from all liability with respect to such Third Party Claim;

(iv) except with the consent of the Seller Representative if the Indemnifying Party is a Seller Indemnifying Party, or Purchaser if the Indemnifying Party is Purchaser, no settlement or resolution by the Indemnified Party of any claim that gives rise to an indemnification claim by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party shall be determinative of the existence of or amount of Indemnified Losses relating to such matter, provided, however, such settlement or resolution will be determinative of the existence of and the amount of Indemnified Losses relating to such matter if the Indemnified Party shall have

Page 67 of 81

Equity Interest Purchase Agreement

assumed control of the defense of the claim because one or more of the Conditions fail to continue to be met after an Indemnifying Party has elected to conduct the defense of a Third-Party Claim pursuant to Section 8.2(a) above; and

(v) in the event that the Seller Representative, if the Indemnifying Party is a Seller Indemnifying Party, or Purchaser, if the Indemnifying Party is a Purchaser Indemnifying Party, has consented to any such settlement or resolution by the Indemnified Party, none of the Indemnifying Parties shall have any power or authority to object under any provision of this ARTICLE VIII to the amount of any claim by or on behalf of any Indemnified Party for indemnity with respect to such settlement or resolution.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 8.2(b), at least two Business Days prior to any settlement, compromise or entry of a judgment to resolve such Third Party Claim if such resolution involves only monetary obligations and customary mutual releases, the Indemnified Parties shall notify the Indemnifying Party of the amount of such settlement, compromise or judgment. If within two Business Days of receiving such notice, the Indemnifying Party proposes in writing to the Indemnified Parties an alternative settlement, compromise or judgment amount to be paid to the Persons making such Third Party Claim that is not less than 90% of the amount proposed by the Indemnified Parties and includes in such alternative proposal an unconditional commitment to the Indemnified Parties to indemnify them for all Losses incurred or suffered by them arising out of or related to such Third Party Claim, including all amounts in excess of the Cap (less the extent to which the settlement, compromise or judgment amount proposed by the Indemnified Parties exceeds the Cap), then the Indemnified Parties must either:

(I) settle, compromise or consent to the entry of a judgment at their proposed settlement amount and acknowledge and agree that the maximum amount of the Indemnified Losses payable by the Indemnifying Party with respect to such Third Party Claim is such alternative settlement amount proposed by the Indemnifying Party (which shall not be less than 90% of the settlement amount proposed by the Indemnified Parties); or

(II) elect not to settle, compromise or consent to the entry of such a judgment for their proposed settlement amount, in which case, the Indemnifying Party shall be obligated to fulfill such unconditional indemnification commitment set forth in its response to the Indemnified Parties’ proposed settlement.

(c) If the Indemnified Party assumes the defense of a Third-Party Claim pursuant to Section 8.2(b) above and fails to diligently conduct the defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may, by notice to the Indemnified Party, assume the exclusive right to defend, compromise or settle such Third-Party Claim, but the Indemnified Party will not be bound by any determination of a Third-Party Claim so defended or any compromise or settlement effected without its consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

Section 8.3 Direct Claims. If an Indemnified Party seeks indemnification hereunder which is not subject to Section 8.2 because no Third-Party Claim is involved, the Indemnified Party will notify Purchaser (if the Indemnifying Party is Purchaser) or the Seller Representative (if the Indemnifying Party is a Seller Indemnifying Party), in writing of any Indemnified Losses which such Indemnified Party claims are subject to indemnification under the terms hereof. Such notice shall contain:

Page 68 of 81

Equity Interest Purchase Agreement

(a) a description and a good faith estimate of the amount of any Purchaser Indemnified Losses or Seller Indemnified Losses, as applicable, incurred or reasonably expected to be incurred by the Indemnified Party;

(b) a statement that the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification under this ARTICLE VIII for such Purchaser Indemnified Losses or Seller Indemnified Losses, as applicable; and

(c) a description in reasonable detail of the basis therefor. Subject to the limitations set forth in this ARTICLE VIII and in Section 9.1, the failure of the Indemnified Party to exercise promptness in such notification will not amount to a waiver of such claim except to the extent the resulting delay materially and adversely prejudices the position of the Indemnifying Party with respect to such claim.

In connection with a claim subject to this Section 8.3, Purchaser (if the Indemnified Party is a Purchaser Indemnified Party) and the Seller Representative (if the Indemnified Party is a Seller Indemnified Party) shall provide the Seller Representative (if the Indemnifying Parties are Seller Indemnifying Parties) or Purchaser (if the Indemnifying Party is Purchaser), as applicable, copies of, the material documents that are then in the possession of or otherwise readily available to Purchaser (if the Indemnified Party is a Purchaser Indemnified Party) or the Sellers (if the Indemnified Party is a Seller Indemnified Party) that the Indemnified Party reasonably believes in good faith support such claim.

Section 8.4 No Circular Recovery; No Contribution. The Seller Representative hereby agrees that it will not, and no Seller Indemnifying Party shall, make any claim for indemnification or advancement of expenses against Purchaser by reason of the fact that such Seller Indemnifying Party was a controlling person, director, officer, stockholder, employee, agent or representative of any of the Sellers, the Companies or Company Subsidiaries or was serving as such for another Person at the request of the Sellers, the Companies or Company Subsidiaries (whether such claim is pursuant to any statute, Organizational Document, contractual obligation or otherwise) with respect to any claim brought by a Purchaser Indemnified Party for indemnification pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII; provided, however, that this provision shall not prevent recovery of insurance proceeds by any such Seller Indemnifying Party to the extent that the Purchaser Indemnified Party has recovered full compensation for related Purchaser Indemnified Losses, and in such case, Purchaser shall pay the Seller Representative for the benefit of such Seller Indemnifying Party the amount of such remaining insurance proceeds (after the Purchaser Indemnified Party has recovered full compensation for related Purchaser Indemnified Losses) to which such Seller Indemnifying Party is entitled, except that the payment of such insurance proceeds by Purchaser shall be subject to the offset right set forth in Section 8.7 below. Effective as of the Closing, the Seller Representative, on behalf of itself and each Seller Indemnifying Party, expressly waives and releases any and all right of subrogation, contribution, advancement, indemnification or other claim against Purchaser.

Section 8.5 Procedures for Claims.

(a) Escrow Claims.

(i) Upon the making by a Purchaser Indemnified Party of any indemnification claim for reimbursement from the Indemnification Escrow Account pursuant to Section 8.2 or Section 8.3 (an “Escrow Claim”), Purchaser shall notify the Seller Representative and the Escrow Agent in writing of such claim and the amount

Page 69 of 81

Equity Interest Purchase Agreement

necessary to satisfy and pay such claim (each such amount, a “Pending Escrow Claims Amount” and each such notice, a “Pending Escrow Claims Notice”).

(ii) If Purchaser delivers a Pending Escrow Claims Notice setting forth a Pending Escrow Claims Amount and the Seller Representative does not deliver a written objection to such Pending Escrow Claims Amount to Purchaser and the Escrow Agent within thirty (30) days after Purchaser’s delivery of such Pending Escrow Claims Notice to the Seller Representative and the Escrow Agent, then Purchaser and the Seller Representative shall execute and deliver to the Escrow Agent joint written instructions directing the Escrow Agent to disburse to Purchaser from the Indemnification Escrow Account the Pending Escrow Claims Amount within two (2) Business Days after the expiration of such thirty (30) day period.

(iii) If Purchaser delivers a Pending Escrow Claims Notice setting forth a Pending Escrow Claims Amount and the Seller Representative delivers a written objection to such Pending Escrow Claims Amount to Purchaser and the Escrow Agent within thirty (30) days after delivery of such Pending Escrow Claims Notice by Purchaser, then Purchaser and the Seller Representative shall promptly use their commercially reasonable efforts to settle the dispute as to whether and to what extent the Purchaser Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification with respect to such Escrow Claim.

(iv) If Purchaser and the Seller Representative are able to reach agreement within thirty (30) days after delivery of such Pending Escrow Claims Notice by Purchaser, and such agreement involves the payment to Purchaser of an amount in satisfaction of such Purchaser Indemnified Losses, then Purchaser and the Seller Representative shall execute and deliver to the Escrow Agent joint written instructions directing the Escrow Agent to disburse to Purchaser from the Indemnification Escrow Account the agreed upon amount within two (2) Business Days after Purchaser and the Seller Representative reach agreement.

(v) If Purchaser and the Seller Representative are unable to reach agreement within thirty (30) days after delivery of such Pending Escrow Claims Notice by Purchaser, then Purchaser and the Seller Representative shall deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to disburse to Purchaser the amount of the Escrow Claim not in dispute (if any) and the portion of such Escrow Claim in dispute may be submitted to a court of competent jurisdiction by Purchaser or the Seller Representative. Thereafter, such Pending Escrow Claims Amount (or portion thereof) shall only be disbursed from the Indemnification Escrow Account either in accordance with (A) a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction finally determining the amount, if any, of Purchaser Indemnified Losses to which a Purchaser Indemnified Party is entitled for the claim related to such Pending Escrow Claims Amount (an “Escrow Claim Final Court Order”) or (B) joint written instructions of Purchaser and the Seller Representative directing the Escrow Agent to disburse the amount, if any, of Purchaser Indemnified Losses to which a Purchaser Indemnified Party is entitled for the claim relating to such Pending Escrow Claims Amount.

Page 70 of 81

Equity Interest Purchase Agreement

(ii) If an Indemnified Party delivers a Pending Non-Escrow Claims Notice setting forth a Pending Non-Escrow Claims Amount and Purchaser (if the Indemnifying Party is Purchaser) or the Seller Representative (if the Indemnifying Party is a Seller Indemnifying Party) does not deliver a written objection to such Pending Non-Escrow Claims Amount to Purchaser or the Seller Representative, as applicable, within thirty (30) days after delivery of such Pending Non-Escrow Claims Notice by the Indemnified Party, then such Indemnifying Party shall become liable for such Indemnified Losses, subject to the limitations contained in this ARTICLE VIII and in Section 9.1.

(iii) If an Indemnified Party delivers a Pending Non-Escrow Claims Notice setting forth a Pending Non-Escrow Claims Amount and Purchaser (if the Indemnifying Party is Purchaser) or the Seller Representative (if the Indemnifying Party is a Seller Indemnifying Party) delivers a written objection to such Pending Non-Escrow Claims Amount to Purchaser or the Seller Representative, as applicable, within thirty (30) days after delivery of such Pending Non-Escrow Claims Notice by the Indemnified Party, then Purchaser and the Seller Representative shall promptly use their commercially reasonable efforts to settle the dispute as to whether and to what extent the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification with respect to such Non-Escrow Claim.

(iv) If Purchaser and the Seller Representative are able to reach agreement within thirty (30) days after delivery of such Pending Non-Escrow Claims Notice by the Indemnified Party, then Purchaser and the Seller Representative shall document such agreement in writing (a “Non-Escrow Claims Settlement Letter”).

(v) If Purchaser and the Seller Representative are unable to reach agreement within thirty (30) days after delivery of such Pending Non-Escrow Claims Notice by the Indemnified Party, then the Indemnifying Parties shall be bound to pay to the Indemnified Parties the portion of such Non-Escrow Claim not in dispute (if any) and the dispute may be submitted to a court of competent jurisdiction by either the Indemnified Parties or the Indemnifying Parties, after which the Indemnifying Parties shall be bound to pay any amounts set forth in a final, non-appealable judgment of such court of competent jurisdiction finally determining the amount, if any, of Indemnified Losses to which an Indemnified Party is entitled for the claim related to such Pending Non-Escrow Claims Amount (a “Non-Escrow Claims Final Court Order”). Any Pending Non-Escrow Claims Amount or portion thereof to which an Indemnified Party is entitled in accordance with a Non-Escrow Claims Settlement Letter or a Non-Escrow Claims Final Court Order will be paid by the Indemnifying Party to such Indemnified Party within five (5) Business Days following execution and delivery of such Non-Escrow Claims Settlement Letter or a Non-Escrow Claims Final Court Order.

Section 9.8 Injunction; Specific Performance. The Sellers, on the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other hand, acknowledge and agree that the other party to this Agreement would be damaged irreparably if any provision of this Agreement is not performed in accordance with its specific terms or is otherwise breached. Accordingly, the Sellers, one the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other hand, agree that the other will be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breach of the provisions of this Agreement and to enforce specifically this Agreement and its terms and provisions, without the necessity of proving the inadequacy of money damages as a remedy, in addition to any other remedy to which they may be entitled, at law or in equity.

Section 9.9 Assignment. This Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder may be assigned (whether by operation of law, recapitalization or otherwise) by any party hereto without the prior written consent of the Seller Representative in the case of an assignment by Purchaser, and without the prior written consent of Purchaser in the case of an assignment by any Seller or the Seller Representative; provided, however, that no such consent will be required for (a) an assignment by Purchaser to any of its wholly-owned Subsidiaries that remains a wholly-owned Subsidiary of Purchaser from and after such assignment, (b) an assignment by any Seller of its rights but not its obligations under this Agreement, to lenders and other creditors, or agents or trustees acting on behalf of any of the foregoing, as security for the performance of obligations of such Seller or its Affiliates to such financing sources and (c) an assignment by Purchaser of its rights but not its obligations under this Agreement, to lenders and other creditors, or agents or trustees acting on behalf of any of the foregoing, as security for the performance of obligations of Purchaser or its Affiliates to such financing sources. No assignment shall release the assigning party from its obligations and liabilities under this Agreement. Any transfer or assignment by Purchaser of substantially all of the Business or substantially all of the assets of the Business to a third Person shall be conditioned upon such third Person agreeing to be bound by the post-Closing obligations of Purchaser then in effect under this Agreement.

Section 9.10 No Third Party Beneficiaries. Except for the Purchaser Indemnified Parties and the Seller Indemnified Parties, nothing in this Agreement shall confer any rights upon any Person that is not a party to, or a successor or permitted assignee of a party to, this Agreement.

Section 9.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and shall be binding upon each party to this Agreement who executed the same, but all of such counterparts shall constitute the same agreement. The exchange of copies of this Agreement and of signature pages by facsimile transmission (whether directly from one facsimile device to another by means of a dial-up connection or whether otherwise transmitted via electronic transmission), by electronic mail in “portable document format” (“.pdf”) form, or by any other electronic means intended to preserve the original graphic and pictorial appearance of a document, or by a

combination of such means, shall constitute effective execution and delivery of this Agreement as to the parties to this Agreement and may be used in lieu of an original agreement for all purposes. Signatures of the parties to this Agreement transmitted by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be deemed to be original signatures for all purposes.

Section 9.12 Headings. The Table of Contents and Section headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and will not be deemed to alter or affect the meaning or interpretation of any provision hereof.

Section 9.13 Terms Generally; Interpretation. The parties to this Agreement have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. Consequently, in the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement. The words “hereby,” “herein,” “hereof,” “hereunder” and words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole (including any exhibits and schedules hereto) and not merely to the specific section, paragraph or clause in which such word appears. All references in this Agreement to Articles, Sections, Exhibits and Schedules are references to Articles and Sections of, and Exhibits and Schedules to, this Agreement unless the context otherwise requires. The words “include”, “includes” and “including” are deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation.” The definitions given in this Agreement apply equally to both the singular and plural forms of the terms defined, and all terms defined in this Agreement shall have the defined meanings when used in any certificate or other document made or delivered pursuant hereto unless otherwise defined therein. Whenever the context requires, any pronoun includes the corresponding masculine, feminine and neuter forms. All references to “day” or “days” shall mean calendar days unless specified as a “Business Day.” Any statute defined or referred to herein or in any agreement or instrument that is referred to herein means such statute as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented, including (in the case of statutes) by succession of comparable successor statutes. Any agreement or other contract defined or referred to herein means such agreement or other contract as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented. References to a Person are also to its permitted successors and assigns. All references to “dollars” or “$” refer to currency of the United States of America, except where the language explicitly provides otherwise. All non-U.S. dollar currency amounts referenced herein shall refer to the U.S. dollar equivalent determined based on the following: (i) when referring to amounts determined or determinable on or prior to the Closing Date, the applicable exchange rate in late New York trading on the date hereof provided in the online edition of the Wall Street Journal; or (ii) when referring to amounts determined or determinable after the Closing Date, the applicable exchange rate in late New York trading on the Closing Date provided in the online edition of the Wall Street Journal. When a reference is made in this Agreement to a “director” of any of the Sellers, Companies or Company Subsidiaries, or any of their respective Affiliates, such reference shall be to a member of the board of directors or equivalent board of such entity. The term “or” is not exclusive. For purposes of the representations and warranties in ARTICLE II and ARTICLE III, a document or other instrument shall be deemed to have been “provided”, “furnished”, “delivered” or “made available” when such document or other instrument has been uploaded onto the Data Room prior to the date hereof and not removed prior to the date hereof. Any U.S. legal term for any action, remedy, method of judicial proceeding, legal document, legal status, court, official or any other legal concept or thing will, in respect of any jurisdiction other than the U.S., be deemed to include what most nearly approximates in that jurisdiction to the U.S. legal term, and any U.S. statutory provision will be construed so as to include equivalent or analogous Laws of any other jurisdiction.

Section 9.14 Governing Law. This Agreement and all claims and causes of action (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) that may be based upon, arise out of, or relate to this Agreement or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement (including any claim or cause of action based

upon, arising out of, or related to any representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Agreement or as an inducement to enter into this Agreement) will be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the conflicts of law principles of such state that would require the substantive laws of another state to apply.

Section 9.15 Jurisdiction and Venue. Any process against Purchaser or any Seller in, or in connection with, any Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated herein may be served personally or by certified mail at the address set forth in Section 9.7 with the same effect as though served on it personally. Any and all Proceedings against any party to this Agreement arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated herein (other than those decided by the Referee under this Agreement) shall be brought in any federal or state court of appropriate jurisdiction in New Castle County, Delaware and each party to this Agreement submits to and accepts the jurisdiction of such courts for the purpose of any such Proceeding.

Section 9.16 Recovery of Certain Expenses. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the parties to this Agreement agree that the prevailing party in any action, proceeding or dispute relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated herein, other than a dispute governed by Section 1.3, shall have the right to recover from the non-prevailing party in such action, proceeding or dispute all of the prevailing party’s reasonable fees and expenses (including without limitation reasonable attorney’s fees) incurred in connection with such action, proceeding or dispute.

Section 9.17 Disclosure Schedules. For the purposes of the Disclosure Schedules, any disclosure set forth under any section or subsection heading of the Disclosure Schedules shall be deemed to modify both (i) the representation and warranty contained in the portion of the section or subsection of this Agreement to which such disclosure corresponds pursuant to the number and language of the applicable Schedule and (ii) any other representation and warranty set forth in ARTICLE II and ARTICLE III of this Agreement to the extent that a reasonable person reading such disclosure would conclude that it also should apply to such other representation and warranty. Inclusion of information in a Schedule shall not be construed as an admission that such information is material. Where a description of the basis for disclosure of an item is provided in the Disclosure Schedules, such description represents the sole basis of disclosure of such agreement or other matter for the particular section or subsection of the Disclosure Schedules in which it appears.

Section 9.18 Seller Representative. The Sellers hereby appoint the Seller Representative as the representative of the Sellers to (a) receive service of process on behalf of each of the Sellers, (b) direct payment of the Purchase Price by Purchaser to the Sellers (including any amounts distributed pursuant to Section 1.2(c), Section 1.3(d) or ARTICLE VIII of this Agreement or pursuant to the Escrow Agreement) and (c) take any action on the Sellers’ behalf in connection with the Sellers’ performance or enforcement of, and exercise of rights under, this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, including (i) the delivery of the estimated Net Working Capital as of the Closing Date and negotiating, settling or compromising any adjustment to the Pre-Adjustment Purchase Price, (ii) negotiating, asserting, prosecuting, settling or compromising on behalf of the Sellers any claim for indemnification against Purchaser, and (iii) negotiating, defending, settling or compromising on behalf of the Sellers any claims arising against the Sellers or any one of them under this Agreement; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 9.18 shall relieve any of the Sellers from any of their obligations to Purchaser pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.
