The Seller Warranty Obligations to be paid, performed, and discharged by the Purchaser will be limited to the obligations stated under the applicable warranties of the Selling Companies. Products will be deemed to be “manufactured and sold” prior to the Closing Date if such products were completed, sold, shipped and accepted by the customer, and, if required under the terms of the applicable contract, the customer had completed acceptance testing of such products, prior to the Closing Date; products that were not so completed, sold, shipped and accepted prior to the Closing Date or were in raw materials or work in process Inventory will not be deemed to have been manufactured and sold prior to the Closing Date and any warranty obligations with respect to such products will be the sole responsibility of the Purchaser.

The Parent and the Seller further agree that the Purchaser will not be required to post a bond or other security in connection with the issuance of any such injunction.

Section 5.12 Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation.

(a) In consideration of the purchase of the Purchased Assets by the Purchaser, each of the Parent and the Seller agree that from the date of this Agreement until the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date, it will not:

(i) within any jurisdiction or marketing area in which the Business is conducted on the date of Closing, directly or indirectly own, manage, operate, control, be employed by (whether as an employee, consultant or advisor) or participate in the ownership, management, operation or control of, or otherwise serve or advise any business of the type and character engaged in and competitive with the Business. For these purposes, ownership of securities of five percent (5%) or less of any class of securities of a public company will not be considered to be competition with the Business;

(ii) induce or attempt to induce any potential customer, supplier, licensee or other business relation of the Business not to transact business with the Purchaser or to transact business with another company in lieu of doing business with the Purchaser; or

(iii) solicit for itself or any Person (other than the Purchaser) the business of any Person with respect to the products of the Business, in lieu of doing business with the Purchaser, that is or was a customer, supplier, licensee or other business relation of the Business within two (2) years prior to the date of this Agreement, or in any way intentionally interfere with the relationship between the Purchaser and any such Person.

(d) The parties recognize that the performance of the obligations under this Section 5.12 by the Parent and the Seller is special, unique and extraordinary in character, and that in the event of the breach by the Parent or the Seller of the terms and conditions of this Section 5.12, the Purchaser will be entitled, if it so elects, to enforce the specific performance thereof by the Parent and/or the Seller, and/or their respective Affiliates, as the case may be, or to enjoin the Parent and/or the Seller or their respective Affiliates from performing services for any Person.

(e) The Parties acknowledge and agree that damages in the event of a breach of any of the provisions of Section 5.12 would be difficult, if not impossible, to ascertain and it is therefore agreed that the Purchaser, in addition to and without limiting any other remedy or right it may have, will have the right to an injunction or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction enjoining any such breach. The Parent and the Seller further agree that the Purchaser will not be required to post a bond or other security in connection with the issuance of any such injunction.

Section 9.2 Indemnification.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the obligations of the Parent and the Seller to indemnify, defend and hold harmless for Purchaser Losses pursuant to Section 9.2(a) will be subject to the following limitations, in addition to any other limitations provided elsewhere in this Article IX:

(i) The obligation of the Parent and the Seller to indemnify, defend and hold harmless for Purchaser Losses pursuant to Section 9.2(a)(i) shall be limited to an aggregate amount of Five Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($5,500,000) (the “Indemnification Cap”), except that the Indemnification Cap will not apply to Purchaser Losses (A) which are based on or arise from a breach of representations and warranties contained in Section 3.2, Section 3.4, Section 3.8 and Section 3.26, which Purchaser Losses shall be limited to the amount of the Purchase Price, (B) which are based on or arise from a breach of representations and warranties contained in Section 3.22 and Section 3.23 (with respect to Permits required by Environmental Law), which will be limited to an aggregate amount of Fifteen Million Dollars ($15,000,000) (which amount shall be in addition to any amounts received pursuant to the Aerojet Indemnity or the Environmental Deed to satisfy any Pre-Closing Environmental Liabilities but shall be inclusive of, and not in addition to, any indemnification obligations of the Parent and the Seller pursuant to Section 9.2(a)(iv)), or (C) in the event of a final judicial determination of fraud.

(c) Subject to the limitations set forth in this Article IX, from and after the Closing, the Purchaser agrees to indemnify, defend and hold the Parent, the Seller, their respective Affiliates and their respective stockholders, officers, directors, employees, agents, successors and assigns, harmless from and against any Losses actually incurred (collectively, “Seller Losses”) related to, arising out of or in connection with (i) any inaccuracy of any representation or the breach of any warranty made by the Purchaser in this Agreement, (ii) any breach or non-fulfillment of any covenant or agreement made by the Purchaser in this Agreement and (iii) the Assumed Liabilities.

(d) The obligations of the Purchaser to indemnify, defend and hold harmless for Seller Losses pursuant to Section 9.2(c)(i) will be limited to the Indemnification Cap, except that the Indemnification Cap will not apply to Seller Losses (i) which are based upon or arise from a breach of representations and warranties contained in Section 4.2, Section 4.4 or Section 4.7, which Seller Losses shall be limited to the amount of the Purchase Price or (ii) in the event of a final judicial determination of fraud. The Purchaser will not be obligated to indemnify and hold harmless for Seller Losses pursuant to Section 9.2(c)(i) until the aggregate amount of such Seller Losses exceeds the Deductible Amount; provided, that to the extent the amount of such aggregate Seller Losses pursuant to Section 9.2(c)(i) exceeds the Deductible Amount, an Indemnified Party will be entitled to recover only the amount of Seller Losses in excess of the Deductible Amount; provided, further, that, the Deductible Amount will not apply to Seller Losses which arise from a breach of representations and warranties contained in Section 4.2, Section 4.4 and Section 4.7.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, there shall be no claims under this Agreement, whether pursuant to Article IX or otherwise, and Section 9.2 shall not apply, to any Purchaser Losses relating to, arising out of or in connection with any inaccuracy of any representation or breach of any warranty made by the Parent or the Seller that was known to exist by the Purchaser prior to the Closing Date.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall any Person be entitled to recover or make a claim for any amounts in respect of, and in no event shall “Losses” be deemed to include (i) with respect to claims by the Purchaser against the Seller or the Parent (but not claims by third parties), indirect, expectation, incidental or consequential damages, lost profits or revenues, business interruption, special or punitive

damages or diminution in value and, in particular and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no “multiple of earnings” or “multiple of cash flow” or similar valuation methodology shall be used in calculating the amount of any Losses, or (ii) any loss, liability, damage or expense to the extent reflected as a liability on the Financial Statements.

Section 9.3 Indemnification Procedure.

(a) Reasonably promptly after the incurrence of any Losses by any Person entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 9.2 hereof (an “Indemnified Party”), including any claim by a third party described in Section 9.4, which might give rise to indemnification hereunder, the Indemnified Party will deliver to the party from whom indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) a certificate (the “Certificate”), which Certificate will:

(i) state that the Indemnified Party has paid or properly accrued Losses for which such Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement; and

(ii) specify in reasonable detail each individual item of Loss included in the amount so stated, the date such item was paid or properly accrued, the basis for any anticipated liability and the nature of the misrepresentation, breach of warranty, breach of covenant or claim to which each such item is related and the computation of the amount to which such Indemnified Party claims to be entitled hereunder; and

(b) In the event that the Indemnifying Party will object to the indemnification of an Indemnified Party in respect of any claim or claims specified in any Certificate, the Indemnifying Party will, within thirty (30) days after receipt by the Indemnifying Party of such Certificate, deliver to the Indemnified Party a notice to such effect and the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party will, within the thirty (30) day period beginning on the date of receipt by the Indemnified Party of such notice, attempt in good faith to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of such claims to which the Indemnifying Party will have so objected. If the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party will succeed in reaching agreement on their respective rights with respect to any of such claims, the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party will promptly prepare and sign a memorandum setting forth such agreement. Should the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party be unable to agree as to any particular item or items or amount or amounts, then the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party will submit such dispute to a court of competent jurisdiction. The party which receives a final judgment in such dispute will be indemnified and held harmless for all reasonable attorney and consultant’s fees or expenses by the other party.

(c) Claims for Losses specified in any Certificate to which an Indemnifying Party does not object in writing within thirty (30) days of receipt of such Certificate, claims for Losses covered by a memorandum of agreement of the nature described in Section 9.3(b), claims for Losses the validity and amount of which have been the subject of judicial determination as described in Section 9.3(b) are hereinafter referred to, collectively, as “Agreed Claims.” Within ten (10) days of the determination of the amount of any Agreed Claims, the Indemnifying Party will pay to the Indemnified Party an amount equal to the Agreed Claim by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the bank account or accounts designated by the Indemnified Party

in a notice to the Indemnifying Party not less than three (3) days prior to such payment. In the event an indemnification payment with respect to an Agreed Claim is to be made by the Seller or the Parent to the Purchaser pursuant to this Article IX, such indemnification payment shall be paid first from the Escrow Account and, to the extent provided by and subject to the limitations contained in this Article IX, thereafter by the Seller or the Parent.

Section 9.4 Third Party Claims.

(a) If a claim by a third party is made against any Indemnified Party, and if such Indemnified Party intends to seek indemnity with respect thereto under this Article IX (a “Third Party Claim”), such Indemnified Party will promptly notify the Indemnifying Party of such claims in writing; provided, that the failure to so notify will not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is actually and materially prejudiced thereby. The Indemnifying Party will have twenty (20) days after receipt of such notice to assume the conduct and control, through counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, of the settlement or defense thereof; provided, however, that (i) the Indemnifying Party will permit the Indemnified Party to participate in such settlement or defense through counsel chosen by such Indemnified Party, provided that the fees and expenses of such counsel will be borne by such Indemnified Party and (ii) the Indemnifying Party will not be entitled to assume control of such defense if (A) such Third Party Claim could give rise to Losses which are more than Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) and (B) after giving effect to Losses previously paid by the Indemnified Party under Article IX hereof, plus the amount of all claims for Losses made by the Indemnified Party against the Indemnifying Party for indemnification under this Article IX that are outstanding at the time of such claim, the remaining maximum aggregate obligation of the Indemnifying Party to indemnify the Indemnified Party under the provisions of this Article IX applicable to such Third Party Claim is less than Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000).

(b) The assumption of the defense of any Third Party Claim by the Indemnifying Party shall not constitute an admission of responsibility to indemnify the Indemnified Party or in any manner restrict or impair the Indemnifying Party’s rights to later be reimbursed its costs and expenses if indemnification under this Agreement was not required. Any Indemnified Party will have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action or claim and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel will not be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party unless (i) the Indemnifying Party will have failed, within a reasonable time after having been notified by the Indemnified Party of the existence of such claim as provided in the preceding sentence, to assume the defense of such claim, (ii) the employment of such counsel has been specifically authorized in writing by the Indemnifying Party, which authorization will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, or (iii) the named parties to any such action (including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party and such Indemnified Party will have been advised in writing by such counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party which are not available to the Indemnifying Party, or available to the Indemnifying Party the assertion of which would be adverse to the interests of the Indemnified Party. So long as the Indemnifying Party is reasonably contesting any such claim in good faith, the Indemnified Party will not pay or settle any such claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnified Party will have the right to pay or settle any such claim, provided that in such event it will waive any right

to indemnity therefor by the Indemnifying Party for such claim unless the Indemnifying Party will have consented to such payment or settlement. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of a Third Party Claim or any litigation resulting therefrom after receipt of notice of such Third Party Claim from the Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party may defend against such claim in such manner as it reasonably deems appropriate. The Indemnified Party may not settle such claim without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed, or conditioned. The Indemnifying Party will not, except with the consent of the Indemnified Party which will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, enter into any settlement that is not entirely indemnifiable by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Article IX and does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the Person or Persons asserting such claim to all Indemnified Parties of an unconditional release from all liability with respect to such claim or consent to entry of any judgment. The Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party will cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any claim, including making available records relating to such claim and furnishing, without expense to the Indemnifying Party and/or its counsel, such employees of the Indemnified Party as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of any such claim or for testimony as witnesses in any Proceeding relating to such claim.

Section 9.5 Exclusive Remedy. The Parties acknowledge and agree that, other than as otherwise provided in Section 5.11(c) and Section 5.12(e), the remedies set forth in this Article IX shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of the Parties and their Affiliates for any and all Losses or any other Liabilities sustained or incurred by the Parties or their Affiliates or their successors and assigns arising out of, resulting from or in connection with this Agreement or otherwise arising out of, resulting from or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereunder and thereunder and each of the Parties hereby waives any other remedy that it, or any other Person entitled to indemnification hereunder, may have hereunder, at law, in equity or otherwise with respect hereto. No individual Representative of any Indemnifying Party, or any Indemnifying Party’s Affiliates, shall be personally liable for any Losses under this Agreement, except as specifically agreed to by said individual Representatives.

Section 9.6 Effect of Insurance, Taxes and Other Recoveries; Mitigation.

(a) The amount of any Losses for which indemnification is provided under this Article IX shall be reduced by (i) any amounts that are recovered by the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates from any Third Party, (ii) any insurance proceeds or other cash receipts or source of reimbursement that are received by the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates with respect to such Losses including, without limitation, the indemnifications pursuant to the Aerojet Indemnity and Environmental Deed of Indemnity, dated November 11, 1998, between British Aerospace Public Limited Company and ARC UK Limited (“Environmental Deed”) (each such source described in clause (i) or (ii), a “Collateral Source”) and (iii) an amount of any net Tax benefit, if any, available to the Indemnified Party or its Affiliates attributable to such Losses.

(b) The Indemnified Party shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, diligently pursue all available remedies and causes of action to recover the amount of its claim as may be available from any Collateral Source. The Indemnified Party shall provide the Indemnifying Party reasonable assistance in prosecuting such claim, including making the Indemnified Party’s books and records relating to such claim available and making its and its Affiliates’ employees

available for interviews, depositions, testimony and similar matters. If any amount to be reduced under this Section 9.6 from any payment required under this Article IX is determined after the date on which the Indemnifying Party is required pursuant to this Article IX to pay such indemnification claim, the Indemnified Party shall promptly reimburse the Indemnifying Party any amount that the Indemnifying Party would not have had to pay pursuant to this Article IX had such determination been made at the time of such payment. In the event that an Indemnified Party willfully fails to mitigate Losses associated with an indemnifiable claim, the Indemnifying Party shall have no liability for any portion of such Losses that reasonably could have been avoided had the Indemnified Party not willfully failed to so mitigate.

Section 9.7 Limitations on Indemnification for Environmental Matters

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the case of any Environmental Claims for which the Purchaser may have indemnification rights pursuant to either the Environmental Deed or the Aerojet Indemnity, including Environmental Claims and Purchaser Losses arising from Pre-Closing Environmental Liabilities, the Purchaser agrees to allow the Parent and the Seller to conduct and control, through counsel and environmental consultants reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser, and at the expense of the Parent and the Seller, the timely prosecution, negotiation or settlement of any claims to secure indemnification under the Environmental Deed or the Aerojet Indemnity on the Purchaser’s behalf. The Purchaser agrees to provide reasonable assistance in prosecuting such claim, including making its books and records relating to such claim available and making its and its Affiliates’ employees available for interviews, depositions, testimony and similar matters as needed to further the Parent and the Seller’s efforts to secure indemnification granted by the Environmental Deed or the Aerojet Indemnity, at the Purchaser’s expense. Purchaser may seek reimbursement from the Parent and the Seller in accordance with Section 9.3(c) for any Losses arising from Environmental Claims even if the Losses may ultimately be covered by the Environmental Deed or the Aerojet Indemnity.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Parent and Seller will not be obligated to indemnify, defend and hold harmless for any Environmental Claims or Purchaser Losses to the extent such Environmental Claims or Purchaser Losses result from, or are directly attributable to (i) the Purchaser, its Affiliate’s, or agents’ failure to comply with any limitations, conditions or qualifications of the Environmental Deed or the Aerojet Indemnity; or (ii) any amendment to, or change in, any Environmental Laws from that which are in effect as of the Closing, including any amendment or change that imposes standards more stringent than those provided for in the Environmental Laws in effect as of the Closing.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Parent and the Seller will not have any obligation to indemnify any Purchaser Losses to the extent arising from or relating to the Purchaser, its Affiliates or agents’ performance or authorization of invasive investigations, sampling or monitoring at the Leased Real Property unless (i) expressly required to do so by Environmental Laws or by final order of a Governmental Entity, (ii) conducted in response to a Environmental Claim asserted by a third party, or (iii) in response to an imminent and substantial threat to human health, safety or the environment, as determined in the Purchaser’s reasonable discretion. The Purchaser acknowledges that nothing contained herein absolves it from any obligation under any Environmental Laws for Environmental Losses with respect to violations of Environmental Laws by the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, and subject to any conflicting provisions of the Environmental Deed and Aerojet Indemnity, which shall control in the event the Losses are reasonably likely to be reimbursed under either instrument, the Purchaser shall adopt the most cost-effective measures with respect to any Remedial Action and related Losses for which it intends to seek indemnification, consistent with the least stringent applicable requirements of Environmental Law or any Governmental or Regulatory Authority. The Purchaser shall not engage in, or otherwise initiate contact with any Governmental or Regulatory Authority regarding the commencement of any Remedial Action related to any Pre-Closing Environmental Condition without the written consent of the Parent and the Seller, unless required to do so pursuant to Environmental Laws or the order of a Governmental or Regulatory Authority, in which case the Purchaser shall make a good faith effort to notify the Parent and the Seller of its intent to contact such Governmental or Regulatory Authority before doing so. The Parent, the Seller and the Purchaser shall each promptly provide the other with copies of all material written communications received from or sent to any Governmental or Regulatory Authority, or any other Person, relating to any Pre-Closing Environmental Condition. The Purchaser will give the Parent and the Seller an opportunity to participate at the Parent’s and the Seller’s sole cost in any meeting or telephone call with any Governmental or Regulatory Authority regarding a Pre-Closing Environmental Condition or any Remedial Action.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, and subject to any conflicting provisions of the Environmental Deed and Aerojet Indemnity, which shall control in the event the Losses are reasonably likely to be reimbursed under either instrument, the Purchaser shall submit to the Parent and the Seller a draft of each material proposal, plan, report or piece of proposed correspondence, including any document proposing the contemplated method of Remedial Action (all such documents constituting “Proposed Remedial Action Documents”) to the extent practicable, at least fifteen (15) Business Days before submitting such document to a Governmental or Regulatory Authority, or, if no such submittal is contemplated, proceeding with activities set forth in the document. Purchaser shall incorporate Parent’s and Seller’s reasonable comments into the Proposed Remedial Action Document before finalizing it. Once a Proposed Remedial Action Document addressing further investigation or remediation is finalized and, if applicable, approved by the relevant Governmental Body (such document referred to as a “Final Remedial Action Document”), Purchaser shall conduct the subject Remedial Action in accordance with the Final Remedial Action Document.

(f) Purchaser agrees to cooperate with Parent and Seller to the extent it is reasonably requested to do so in connection with Parent’s and Seller’s environmental indemnity obligations hereunder, including responding in a timely manner to reasonable requests for information reasonably necessary to complete any and all Remedial Actions. Purchaser shall make its environmental personnel and consultants and the work product generated by them reasonably available to Parent upon request.

Section 9.8 No Double Recovery. Notwithstanding the fact that any Person may have the right to assert claims for indemnification under or in respect of more than one provision of this Agreement in respect to any fact, event, condition or circumstance, no Person shall be

entitled to recover the amount of any Losses suffered by such Person more than once under the Transaction Documents in respect of such fact, event, condition or circumstance, and an Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for indemnification to the extent that the amount of the Loss incurred is included as a liability on the Balance Sheet.

Section 9.9 Adjustment to Purchase Price. The Parties agree that the payment of any indemnity under this Article IX shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price paid by the Purchaser hereunder for Tax purposes to the extent that it may properly be so characterized under applicable Law.

ARTICLE X

TAX MATTERS

Section 10.1 Allocation of Tax Consideration.

(a) Within ninety (90) days after the Closing, the Purchaser shall prepare and deliver to the Parent for review and comment an allocation schedule (the “Allocation Schedule”) setting forth the Purchaser’s allocation to the Purchased Assets of the total consideration deemed paid by the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement for federal income Tax purposes (the “Tax Consideration”), including the Purchase Price, as adjusted, the Assumed Liabilities of the Seller, and all other relevant items that are properly includible in determining the amount paid by the Purchaser for such Purchased Assets for federal income Tax purposes. The Allocation Schedule shall comply with the requirements set forth on the Value Schedule, and shall otherwise be prepared in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder. The Parent shall have the right to review and comment on the Allocation Schedule, which comments the Purchaser shall consider in good faith.

(b) Schedule 10.1(b) (the “Value Schedule”) sets forth the aggregate minimum value of certain Purchased Assets that the Parties have agreed to for the purpose of preparing the Allocation Schedule.

(c) If the Tax Consideration changes at any time after the Allocation Schedule is prepared by the Purchaser and provided to the Seller, the Purchaser shall prepare and provide to the Seller for review and comment before filing with its Tax Return a revised Allocation Schedule that reflects the change and is prepared in accordance with Sections 10.1(a) and (b).

(d) The Parties shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, file all Tax Returns (including IRS Form 8594) and, in the course of all Tax-related Proceedings, take positions and any other actions, consistent with the Allocation Schedule (as most recently revised); provided, however, that if, in any audit of any Tax Return by a Governmental or Regulatory Authority, the fair market values of the Purchased Assets as of the Closing Date are finally determined to be different from those used in the Allocation Schedule, the Parties may (but shall not be obligated to) take any position or action consistent with the fair market values as finally determined in such audit. In the event the values and allocations reflected in the Allocation Schedule are disputed by any Governmental or Regulatory Authority, the Party receiving notice of the dispute will promptly notify the other Party of the existence of the dispute and upon its resolution.

Section 10.2 Responsibility for Tax Matters of the Business. Except to the extent otherwise provided by this Article X or the Tax Covenant, the Seller is and shall remain solely responsible for all Tax matters related to Taxes that are Retained Liabilities and the Purchaser shall be solely responsible for all Tax matters related to Taxes that are Assumed Liabilities.

Section 10.3 Responsibility for Tax Returns of the Acquired Subsidiaries. Except to the extent otherwise provided by Section 10.4, Section 10.5 or Section 10.12:

(a) The Seller shall timely prepare or cause to be prepared all income and/or corporation Tax Returns for each Acquired Subsidiary for all taxable periods (or, as the case may be, accounting periods) ending on or before the Closing Date (each a “Seller Return”).

(b) The Purchaser shall prepare and timely file (or cause to be prepared and timely filed) with the appropriate Governmental and Regulatory Authorities all other Tax Returns required to be filed by each Acquired Subsidiary after the Closing Date (each a “Purchaser Return”).

(c) If necessary to permit the Seller to properly file any Seller Return, the Purchaser shall cause each Seller Return to be executed by an authorized Person on behalf of the relevant Acquired Subsidiary.

(d) The Purchaser shall cause a draft of the Tax Return for each Acquired Subsidiary for the accounting period ending September 30, 2012 (the “2012 Tax Returns”) to be delivered to the Seller for review, comment and approval (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). In particular, but without prejudice to the generality of this section, the Purchaser shall make any amendments to the 2012 Tax Returns requested by the Seller where such amendments are in respect of the R&D Tax Repayments. The Purchaser shall deliver such drafts not less than sixty (60) days before the due date of such Tax Return (or, if such due date falls within thirty (30) days after the Closing Date, as soon as possible).

Section 10.4 Transfer Fees. Except to the extent otherwise provided in this Section 10.4, all transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other similar Taxes, and all conveyance fees, recording charges and other fees and charges (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (“Transfer Fees”) shall be borne by the Party responsible for paying or otherwise remitting such Transfer Fees under applicable Law. Such responsible Party shall, at its own expense, prepare and cause to be filed all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to the Transfer Fees for which it is responsible; provided, if required by applicable Law, the other Parties shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, join in the execution of any such Tax Returns and other documentation to the extent so required. Notwithstanding the foregoing, U.K. and Irish stamp duties payable on transfer of the Equity Interests shall be paid by the Purchaser and the Purchaser shall, at its own expense, prepare and cause to be filed all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to such duties, provided, if required by applicable Law, the other Parties shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, join in the execution of any such Tax Returns and other documentation to the extent so required.

Section 10.5 Tax Covenant. The terms of the Tax Covenant, substantially in the form attached hereto as Schedule 1.1(b), are hereby incorporated in whole by this reference.

Section 10.6 Straddle Periods. To the extent relevant under this Agreement but except as expressly provided otherwise in this Agreement or the Tax Covenant, Taxes incurred by the Seller or an Acquired Subsidiary with respect to a Straddle Period shall be allocated to the Pre-Closing Tax Period: (i) except as provided in (ii) and (iii) below, to the extent feasible, on a specific identification basis, according to the date of the event or transaction giving rise to such Tax, and (ii) except as provided in (iii) below, with respect to periodically assessed ad valorem Taxes and Taxes not otherwise reasonably allocable to specific transactions or events, in proportion to the number of days in such period occurring through the Closing Date compared to the total number of days in such period, and (iii) in the case of any Tax based upon or related to income or receipts, in an amount equal to such Tax that would be payable if the relevant taxable period ended on the Closing Date. Except as expressly provided otherwise in this Agreement or the Tax Covenant, any credits relating to a Straddle Period that are attributable to a Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be taken into account as though the relevant taxable period ended on the Closing Date. All determinations necessary to give effect to the foregoing allocations shall be made in a manner consistent with prior practices of the Seller and each Acquired Subsidiary, as the case may be.

Section 10.7 Tax Elections; Amended Returns. Except in connection with an audit resolved pursuant to Section 10.9 (including consistent correlative adjustments to Tax Returns for non-audited taxable periods), no Party or Affiliate of a Party may amend or cause the amendment of a Tax Return of the Business or any Acquired Subsidiary, or file or amend any Tax election, or file a Tax Return after the due date thereof, concerning the Business or any Acquired Subsidiary, in each case, with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period without the written consent of the Seller, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Purchaser covenants that it shall not, nor shall it cause or permit any Acquired Subsidiary to, make any election or deemed election under Section 338 of the Code (or any analogous or similar rules in any relevant domestic or foreign Tax jurisdiction) with respect to the acquisition of the Purchase Assets. The Purchaser shall, upon request by the Seller, cooperate in the preparation of and submission to the proper Governmental or Regulatory Authority of any amended Tax Return with respect to the Business or any Acquired Subsidiary for any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date that is necessary to cause such Tax Return to be consistent with adjustments to a Tax Return for any other taxable period proposed by a Governmental or Regulatory Authority, or that is otherwise required by applicable Law to be filed.

Section 10.8 Overpayments of Taxes. To the extent that any determination of Tax liability, whether as the result of an audit or examination, a claim for refund, the filing of an amended Tax Return or otherwise, results in a determination of an overpayment of Taxes that were either paid by the Seller or any Acquired Subsidiary (on or before the Closing Date) or paid pursuant to a claim for indemnification under Article IX or the Tax Covenant, the Purchaser shall promptly pay an amount equal to such overpayment, and the interest received thereon, to the Seller upon receipt by (or crediting for the benefit of) the Purchaser or its Affiliates, unless and to the extent that the entitlement to any refund or credit of such overpayment was taken into account as a reduction in computing the amount of indemnified Loss in respect of such Taxes or

reflected as an asset in the most recent Balance Sheet. For the avoidance of doubt, the Purchaser shall not offset any of its obligations to make payments to the Seller in respect of Tax overpayments against any indemnifiable Losses except with the prior written consent of the Seller.

Section 10.9 Audits and Contests Regarding Taxes. Any Party who receives, or whose Affiliate receives, any notice of a pending or threatened Tax audit, assessment, or adjustment against or with respect to the Business or an Acquired Subsidiary that may give rise to a liability of the Seller (including a right to indemnification pursuant to the terms of Article IX or under the Tax Covenant) shall promptly notify the Seller within five (5) Business Days of the receipt of such notice. The Purchaser and the Seller each agree to consult with and to keep the other informed on a regular basis regarding the status of any Tax audit or proceeding to the extent that such audit or proceeding could affect a liability of any of the Parties (including indemnity obligations hereunder). The Seller shall have the right to represent itself, the Business and any Acquired Subsidiary’s interests in any Tax audit or administrative or judicial proceeding pertaining to taxable periods ending on or before the Closing Date and to employ counsel of its choice, but reasonably satisfactory to the Purchaser, at the Seller’s expense, and control the disposition of any issue involved in such proceeding; provided, however, the Purchaser shall have the right to participate in such proceeding at its own expense, and shall be entitled to control the disposition of any issue involved in such proceeding that does not affect a potential liability of the Seller (including under Article IX or the Tax Covenant). Both the Purchaser and the Seller shall be entitled to represent their own interests in light of their responsibilities (including indemnity obligations) for the related Taxes, at their own expense, in any audit or administrative or judicial proceedings involving a Straddle Period of the Business or any Acquired Subsidiary or involving both a taxable period of the Business or any Acquired Company ending on or before the Closing Date and a Straddle Period, and no such audit or proceeding may be settled or compromised by the Seller or the Purchaser without the consent of both the Seller and the Purchaser, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Purchaser shall not have the right to participate in any audit or other proceeding with respect to any income Tax Return of any federal consolidated (or state combined or unitary) group of which the Seller is or was a member. Except as provided in this Section 10.9, the provisions of Article IX, including the provisions therein addressing settlement authority, shall govern the manner in which any Tax audit or administrative or judicial proceedings with respect to the Business or an Acquired Subsidiary are conducted and resolved.

Section 10.10 Cooperation, Access to Information, and Records Retention. The Seller and the Purchaser shall cooperate as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other in connection with the preparation and filing of Tax Returns as provided herein and any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes relating to the Business or an Acquired Subsidiary. Such cooperation shall include the provision of records and information that are reasonably relevant to any such Tax Return, audit, litigation or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. The Purchaser agrees (i) to retain all books and records relevant to Taxes of the Business or any Acquired Subsidiary that are in the possession of Purchaser, an Affiliate thereof or any Acquired Subsidiary after the Closing (including Tax Returns) relating to any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until the expiration of

the statute of limitations for assessment of Taxes for such respective taxable period, and (ii) to give the Seller reasonable written notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any such books and records and, if the Seller so requests, the Purchaser shall allow the Seller to take possession or copy of such books and records.

Section 10.11 Tax Certificates. The Purchaser and the Seller agree, upon request of the other, to use all reasonable efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any Governmental or Regulatory Body as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any Tax that could be imposed (including with respect to the transactions contemplated herein).

Section 10.12 R&D Tax Credits. The Purchaser shall procure that the relevant Acquired Subsidiary forward, as soon as reasonably possible, any communication received from any Governmental or Regulatory Authority in respect of an R&D Tax Repayment and shall submit to the relevant Governmental or Regulatory Authority any form of communication requested by the Seller in respect thereof. The Purchaser shall procure that the relevant Acquired Subsidiary pay to the Seller an amount equal to the R&D Tax Repayment in respect of the accounting periods ended or ending September 30, 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012 (for the avoidance of doubt, solely in respect of any qualifying expenditure incurred by the relevant Acquired Subsidiary on or prior to the Closing Date) within ten (10) Business Days of (i) the receipt of any cash payments from a Governmental or Regulatory Authority with respect to such R&D Tax Repayment or (ii) the receipt by Purchaser of the benefit of such R&D Tax Repayment by reduction in Tax that would otherwise be currently due and payable. For the avoidance of doubt, the payment of an R&D Tax Repayment for the purpose of this Section 10.12, shall include (but not be limited to) the right to claim a credit or set-off in respect of any Tax by the Purchaser or any Acquired Subsidiary or any Affiliate thereof and the Purchaser shall procure that the Acquired Subsidiaries shall not engage in any act or omission that may prejudice or have an adverse effect on the payment of the R&D Tax Repayment.

EXHIBIT A

TRANSITION SERVICES AGREEMENT

This TRANSITION SERVICES AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is dated as of this [ ] day of [ ], 2012, by and among MOOG INC., a New York corporation (“Purchaser”), AMPAC-ISP CORP., a Delaware corporation (“Seller”) and AMERICAN PACIFIC CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (“Parent”).

RECITALS

WHEREAS, as set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement, dated June 4, 2012, by and among Purchaser, Seller and Parent (the “Purchase Agreement”), Purchaser has agreed to purchase from Seller and Seller has agreed to sell, transfer, assign and deliver to Purchaser the Purchased Assets (as such term and each other capitalized term used herein without definition is defined in the Purchase Agreement) against delivery of the purchase price and assumption of the Assumed Liabilities set forth in the Purchase Agreement;

WHEREAS, the Purchase Agreement provides that Seller and Parent shall enter into a transition services agreement with Purchaser pursuant to which Seller and Parent shall provide certain transitional services to Purchaser with respect to the Business following the Closing Date for a limited period of time to facilitate the transfer of the Purchased Assets; and

WHEREAS, the parties desire hereby to set forth the terms and conditions upon which Seller and Parent shall provide such services to Purchaser.

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:

Provision of Services; Standard of Performance.

1.1 Commencing on the date hereof, Parent shall provide or, pursuant to Section 4.2, cause one or more of its Affiliates or third parties to provide to Purchaser the services (each, a “Service” and collectively, the “Services”) specified on an applicable service schedule or schedules attached hereto as Exhibit A, (each such schedule, a “Service Schedule”) for the period of time specified thereon, or if no period of time is set forth thereon, for a period of twelve (12) months, unless a Service is earlier terminated or extended in accordance with the terms hereof. Each Service shall become subject to this Agreement upon execution of a Service Schedule related thereto.

1.2 Unless a different performance standard is set forth in the applicable Service Schedule, Parent agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Services in substantially the same manner as such Services were performed by Seller, Parent and/or their Affiliates for the Business immediately prior to Closing Date.

1.3 Except as may be provided in a Service Schedule, (i) Parent shall not be required to provide Services to Purchaser except to the extent that such Services are being provided as of the Closing Date to the Business and (ii) the Services shall be used by Purchaser only for the purposes of conducting the Business and operating the Purchased Assets substantially in the manner that they were conducted and operated by Parent and Seller

A-1

immediately prior to the Closing Date, and shall not be used for any other purposes, except as may be otherwise agreed to by Parent in writing. With respect to any Service, Parent shall not be required to provide a level of service which is higher than the level of service provided by Parent and Seller with respect to the Business or the Purchased Assets as of the Closing Date.

1.4 To the extent any agreed Performance Standard requires Parent to exercise discretion, Parent may request written instructions from Purchaser with respect to the exercise of such discretion. Purchaser shall promptly provide such instructions in reasonable detail and Parent shall not be deemed to have breached this Agreement if Parent relies upon such written instructions.

Payment.

2.1 Purchaser shall pay each month to Parent the fee specified for each Service rendered during such month as set forth on the applicable Service Schedule (the “Fees”). The costs of obtaining any permits, approvals, licenses, sublicenses or approvals and third party Consents shall be borne by Purchaser. All out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Parent in connection with the provision of the Services, including but not limited to costs and expenses incurred in connection with Services provided by third parties and the obtaining of any third party Consents, permits, approvals, licenses, sublicenses or approvals under Section 5.4 or Section 11 hereto, shall be fully reimbursed by Purchaser (“Expenses”); provided, however, that in any month during the term of this Agreement, Parent will not incur a single Expense in excess of $25,000 or aggregate Expenses in excess of $50,000 without the prior written consent of Purchaser; provided, further, that if Purchaser declines to provide such prior written consent, Parent shall no longer have any obligation to (a) obtain such applicable Consent, permit, approval, license, sublicense or approval under Section 5.4 or Section 11 hereto, or (b) obtain such Services from such third party or any other third party, or perform such Services, and Parent’s obligation to provide such Services shall terminate.

2.2 On the last day of each calendar month, Parent shall invoice all Fees owed by Purchaser for the Services provided for such month and all Expenses incurred by Parent during such month. Unless contesting in good faith the Fees and Expenses set forth on the invoice, Purchaser shall pay such Fees and Expenses within thirty (30) days of receipt of the invoice by check drawn on good funds or wire transfer of immediately available funds. The invoice shall set forth the Services or Additional Services provided, the Fees payable for each Service or Additional Service, invoices for Services provided by Parent’s Affiliates or third parties, if any, and a list of any Expenses incurred. If Purchaser discovers an error or omission in any invoice, Purchaser shall provide prompt written notice to Parent and Parent’s Project Manager (as defined in Section 6.1 below) of such error or omission. The parties shall negotiate in good faith to come to an agreement as to the nature of such error or omission, provided that if the parties cannot agree, either party may submit the dispute for resolution under the dispute resolution procedures set forth in Section 6. No action shall be taken with respect to any such error or omission if notice therefor is received by Parent more than sixty (60) days after Purchaser’s receipt of the applicable invoice.

2.3 Except as provided in the applicable Service Schedule for a specific Service, Parent and Seller shall not be obligated to: (i) hire any additional employees or create

A-2

new or additional employee or independent contractor positions; (ii) maintain the employment of any specific employee; (iii) purchase, lease, license or otherwise acquire any new or additional assets, equipment or software; (iv) pay any costs related to the transfer or conversion of Seller’s or Parent’s data to Purchaser or to any alternate supplier of Services after the term; (v) engage any alternate supplier of Services; or (vi) modify, alter or amend any existing Seller or Parent specifications and policies, in order to perform or complete performance of any Service. Any such costs incurred by Seller or Parent to take any of the above actions at the request of Purchaser in connection with the performance of any Service shall be borne by Purchaser, except as set forth on the applicable Service Schedule, and shall be invoiced as Fees and Expenses pursuant to Section 2.2.

2.4 In the event that the provision of the Services or the relationship created between the parties hereunder gives rise to any Tax (other than a Tax based on income), such Tax shall be the responsibility of Purchaser.

Term.

3.1 Subject to the terms of this Section 3 and of Section 8, the provision of the Services shall commence on the date hereof and, with respect to each Service, shall terminate twelve (12) months from the Closing Date, unless a shorter period is set forth on the applicable Service Schedule.

3.2 Purchaser may terminate any Service by giving fifteen (15) days’ prior written notice to Parent. Any requested termination of a Service pursuant to this Section 3.2 shall become effective on the last day of the calendar month during which such fifteen (15) day notice period ends. Parent shall thereafter no longer be obligated to provide such Service and Purchaser shall thereafter no longer be obligated to pay for such Service (except with respect to any Fees and Expenses incurred up to the effective date of the termination of such Service). The applicable Service Schedule shall thereafter be amended to reflect the termination of the Service.

3.3 Parent shall reduce the quantity of any Service provided hereunder upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice from Purchaser. Any requested reduction of a Service pursuant to this Section 3.3 shall become effective at the end of such thirty (30) day notice period. The Fees payable with respect to such Service shall be reduced proportionately in accordance with the fee schedule set forth on the applicable Service Schedule with respect to such Service. The applicable Service Schedule shall thereafter be amended to reflect the reduction of such Service.

3.4 Parent shall not terminate or reduce the quantity of any Service or add any Additional Service except as provided in Section 2.1, Section 3 and Section 7. Parent shall not be required to provide any of the Services to the extent that the performance of such Services becomes materially more expensive for Parent as a result of an organizational or operational change in the Business or the Purchased Assets by Purchaser, provided, however, that Parent and Purchaser agree to negotiate in good faith to modify the Service’s terms and conditions so that Parent may continue to provide such Services.

A-3

Employees and Subcontractors.

4.1 Parent shall use commercially reasonable efforts (i) to retain employees who are experienced in performing, and trained to perform, the Services, or hire, train and retain other personnel to perform the Services and (ii) in each case, to cause such employees to perform the Services during the term of this Agreement; provided, that nothing herein shall be deemed to require Parent to pay any stay bonuses or other special incentives or to retain in its employ any specific individuals. Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts (i) to retain employees who are experienced in the various functions for which Parent will be performing Services or to hire, train and retain other personnel to work with Parent in its performance of such Services and (ii) in each case, to cause such employees to work with Parent in the performance of the Services during the term of this Agreement, provided that nothing herein shall be deemed to require Purchaser to pay any stay bonuses or other special incentives or to retain in its employ any specific individuals.

4.2 In providing the Services, Parent may (i) use such personnel of Parent or its Affiliates as Parent deems necessary or appropriate or (ii) employ the services of third parties to the extent that such third party services (A) are routinely utilized or were routinely utilized prior to the Closing Date to provide such services to Parent or (B) are reasonably necessary to the efficient performance of any such Services. The use of an Affiliate or a third party by Parent shall not otherwise relieve Parent of its obligations under this Agreement.

5. Cooperation; Records; Access.

5.1 The parties agree to fully cooperate in good faith with each other in connection with the provision of the Services and the matters related to or arising hereunder, including, without limitation, Parent’s cooperation with Purchaser to enable Purchaser to establish its own infrastructure to perform the Services independently of Parent as soon as practicable after the Closing Date; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 5 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall require Parent or Seller to incur any out-of-pocket cost in connection with rendering its cooperation to Purchaser as hereby contemplated.

5.2 Subject to Purchaser’s third party confidentiality and data protection obligations, Purchaser shall make available during regular business hours (or otherwise upon reasonable prior notice) to Parent or its Representatives (i) all personnel designated by Purchaser to receive or oversee the Services and (ii) all books and records maintained by Purchaser in connection with this Agreement and all other information or materials reasonably requested by Parent to facilitate Parent’s performance of this Agreement; provided, however, that any such requests do not unreasonably interfere with the operation of the day-to-day business affairs of Purchaser.Parent shall not be liable for any deficiency, default or delay in performing any Services if such deficiency, default or delay results from Purchaser’s failure to provide reasonable cooperation as required hereunder.

5.3 Subject to Parent’s third party confidentiality and data protection obligations, Parent shall make available during regular business hours (or otherwise upon reasonable prior notice) to Purchaser or its Representatives (i) all personnel designated by Parent to provide the Services, (ii) all books and records maintained by Parent in connection with this

A-4

Agreement and all other information or materials reasonably requested by Purchaser for the purpose of exercising general oversight and monitoring of the performance of the Services and (iii) on Parent’s premises, all records that Parent has prepared or maintained in providing the Services in order for Purchaser to verify the accuracy of the Fees and Expenses and the proper performance of Services; provided, however, that any such requests do not unreasonably interfere with the operation of the day-to-day business affairs of Parent. Purchaser shall pay for the costs of any such inspection.

5.4 Each party shall cooperate with and assist the other party in obtaining any third party Consents necessary for the performance of the Services, including, without limitation, any required Consent under any intellectual property license or real property lease. In the event that the parties are unable to obtain any required Consent, the parties shall negotiate in good faith reasonable modifications of the Services so that such Consents are not required.

5.5 Each party agrees to make available any of its employees whose assistance, testimony or presence is necessary to assist the other party in evaluating or defending any claims with respect to the Services, including the presence of such employees as witnesses in Proceedings for such purpose; provided that the party requiring such assistance shall reimburse the party providing such assistance for any direct out-of-pocket costs in connection with such employee’s assistance, testimony or presence, promptly following receipt of appropriate documentation of such out-of-pocket costs.

Management Process.

6.1 On the Closing Date, each of Parent and Purchaser shall designate a project manager (a “Project Manager”) to report and discuss issues with respect to the provision of the Services. The Project Managers shall meet to discuss the performance of the Services as often as reasonably necessary to ensure the orderly provision of the Services, and in any event at least monthly, and shall have authority to address and remedy problems related to the provision of the Services. Each party shall designate successor Project Managers in the event that a designated individual is not available to perform such role hereunder.

6.2 In the event that any dispute arises under this Agreement, the parties agree to negotiate in good faith to resolve such dispute prior to seeking relief in accordance with Section 19. Any party may at any time deliver a notice to the other party that it wishes to refer a dispute to the Project Managers. Following receipt of such notice, the Project Managers shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such dispute within a period of ten (10) days (or such longer period of time as such Project Managers may agree in writing). If at the end of such period, the Project Managers have not fully resolved the dispute, the Project Managers shall within ten (10) days appoint one expert satisfactory to both Parent and Purchaser to mediate the dispute and shall share equally the costs thereof. If within twenty (20) days following the appointment of such mediator the parties have not fully resolved the dispute, either party may seek relief in accordance with Section 19.

A-5

7.1 Subject to the terms of this Section 7, this Agreement shall terminate on the date on which the provision of all Services has been terminated pursuant to Section 3.

7.2 This Agreement may be terminated by either party in advance of the termination date pursuant to Section 7.1 above:

(i) upon written notice to the other party if the other party shall default in the performance of any of its material obligations under this Agreement and such default shall continue and not be remedied for a period of ten (10) days after receipt of prior written notice stating that a default has occurred;

(ii) upon written notice to the other party if the other party has filed against it any involuntary petition in bankruptcy or similar proceeding seeking its reorganization, liquidation or the appointment of a receiver, trustee or liquidator for all or substantially all of its assets, whereupon such petition shall not be dismissed within sixty (60) days after the filing thereof, or if the other party shall (A) apply for or consent in writing to the appointment of a receiver, trustee or liquidator of all or substantially all of its assets, (B) file a voluntary petition or admit in writing its inability to pay its debts as they become due, (C) make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, (D) file a petition or an answer seeking reorganization or an arrangement with creditors or take advantage of any insolvency law or (E) file an answer admitting the material allegations of a petition filed against it in any bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency proceedings or similar proceedings; or

(iii) upon written notice to the other party if any Force Majeure Event (as defined in Section 9 hereof) occurs and any Services or obligations required to be performed hereunder are interrupted or interfered with for a period in excess of sixty (60) days.

7.3 Upon the termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 7, Parent shall no longer be obligated to provide any Services and Purchaser shall no longer be obligated to pay for any Services (except with respect to any Fees and Expenses incurred up to the date of such termination).

19. Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement, together with the Purchase Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, constitutes the entire understanding and

A-9

agreement between the parties hereto and supersedes any and all written or oral, prior or contemporaneous representations, understandings and agreements between or among Purchaser, Seller and Parent with respect to the subject matter hereof.

RECITALS

WHEREAS, the Parties have entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement dated as of June 4, 2012, pursuant to which Purchaser has acquired certain of the assets of Seller (the “Purchase Agreement”);

WHEREAS, pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, at Closing, Purchaser is required to deposit the sum of $4,000,000 (the “Escrow Funds”) into escrow to be held in accordance with the terms of this Escrow Agreement;

WHEREAS, the Parties hereto acknowledge that the Escrow Agent is not a party to, is not bound by, and has no duties or obligations under the Purchase Agreement, that all references in this Escrow Agreement to the Purchase Agreement is for convenience, and that the Escrow Agent shall have no implied duties beyond the express duties set forth in this Escrow Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and agreements of the Parties and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Parties and the Escrow Agent agree as follows:

ARTICLE 1

ESCROW DEPOSIT

Section 1.1. Capitalized Terms. Capitalized terms used in this Escrow Agreement and not otherwise defined will have the meanings specified in the Purchase Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, or any contrary provisions of this Escrow Agreement, it is understood that the Escrow Agent is not a party to the Purchase Agreement.

Section 1.2. Appointment of Escrow Agent. The Parties hereby appoint the Escrow Agent as the escrow agent under this Escrow Agreement, and the Escrow Agent accepts such appointment according to the terms and conditions set forth herein.

B-1

Section 1.3. Receipt of Escrow Funds.

(a) Simultaneously with the execution and delivery of this Escrow Agreement, in accordance with the Purchase Agreement, Purchaser shall deposit with the Escrow Agent the Escrow Funds which will be held in a segregated escrow (the “Escrow Account”) by the Escrow Agent.

(b) The Escrow Agent shall acknowledge the receipt of the Escrow Funds upon actual receipt by a method of its choosing.

(c) The Escrow Account and the Escrow Funds held therein at all times will be maintained wholly segregated from all other funds or accounts held or maintained by the Escrow Agent in any capacity. Thereafter, the Escrow Agent will hold, manage, administer, distribute and release the Escrow Funds in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Escrow Agreement, provided that should any terms or provisions of this Escrow Agreement contradict those of the Purchase Agreement, the terms and provisions of the Purchase Agreement will control as between the Parties. The Escrow Agent shall only be responsible for the terms and conditions of this Escrow Agreement.

Section 1.4. Procedures with Respect to Indemnification Claims.

(a) Except as otherwise provided in this Escrow Agreement, no portion of the Escrow Funds (or the interest earnings realized thereon) will be released unless and until receipt of joint written instructions from Purchaser and Seller directing the Escrow Agent to release all or a portion of the Escrow Funds or such proceeds (a “Joint Instruction”); provided, however, that on the date that is fifteen (15) months from the date hereof, the Escrow Agent shall pay and distribute to Seller the then-remaining amount of the Escrow Funds, unless the Escrow Agent has (i) received joint written instructions from Purchaser and Seller requesting that such Escrow Funds be retained in the Escrow Account or (ii) received written instructions from Purchaser stating that there is outstanding (A) an Agreed Claim or (B) an unresolved dispute under Section 9.3(b) of the Purchase Agreement with respect to an outstanding Certificate, in which case Escrow Funds in the amount of the Losses specified in such Agreed Claim or outstanding Certificate shall be retained in the Escrow Account, and the balance paid to the Seller. The Escrow Agent shall thereafter release from the Escrow Account the remaining portion of the retained Escrow Funds to the party entitled thereto when it receives (x) joint written instructions from Purchaser and Seller requesting that such remaining Escrow Funds be distributed to Seller, or (y) when it receives notice that such dispute has been submitted to a court of competent jurisdiction for judgment, and that a final judgment with respect to such matters has been rendered, which notice shall be accompanied by a copy of a final, non-appealable order of the court pursuant to which such court has determined whether and to what extent Purchaser is entitled to the amount requested in such Certificate, and a statement by the submitting party that such decision is final and non-appealable.

(b) The Escrow Agent shall make payment within three (3) business days after receipt of such Joint Instruction in accordance with those instructions.

B-2

Section 1.5. Investments.

(a) The Escrow Agent is authorized and directed to deposit, transfer, hold and invest the Escrow Funds in the Escrow Account and any interest thereon as set forth in Exhibit A hereto, or as set forth in any subsequent written instruction signed by the Representative. Any interest income on the Escrow Funds will become Escrow Funds and disbursed in accordance with Section 1.4 hereof.

(b) The Escrow Agent is hereby authorized and directed to sell or redeem any such investments as it deems necessary to make any payments or distributions required under this Escrow Agreement. The Escrow Agent shall have no responsibility or liability for any loss which may result from any investment or sale of investment made pursuant to this Escrow Agreement. The Escrow Agent is hereby authorized, in making or disposing of any investment permitted by this Escrow Agreement, to deal with itself (in its individual capacity) or with any one or more of its affiliates, whether it or any such affiliate is acting as agent of the Escrow Agent or for any third person or dealing as principal for its own account. The Parties acknowledge that the Escrow Agent is not providing investment supervision, recommendations, or advice.

Section 1.6. Income Tax Allocation and Reporting.

(a) The Parties agree that, for tax reporting purposes, all interest income from investment of the Escrow Funds will, as of the end of each calendar year and to the extent required by the Internal Revenue Service, be reported as having been earned by Seller, whether or not such income was disbursed during such calendar year. The Escrow Agent shall provide Seller with monthly and annual statements reporting interest earned on the Escrow Funds. Seller shall be responsible for paying taxes (including any penalties and interest thereon) on all interest earned on the Escrow Funds and for filing all necessary tax returns with respect to such income. Neither Purchaser nor the Escrow Agent shall have any obligation to file or prepare any tax returns or prepare any other reports for any taxing authorities concerning matters covered by this Escrow Agreement.

(b) Prior to the date hereof, Seller shall provide the Escrow Agent with certified tax identification numbers by furnishing appropriate form W-9 or W-8 and such other forms and documents that the Escrow Agent may request. Seller understands that if such tax reporting documentation is not provided and certified to the Escrow Agent, the Escrow Agent may be required by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations promulgated thereunder, to withhold a portion of any interest income earned on the investment of the Escrow Funds.

(c) To the extent that the Escrow Agent becomes liable for the payment of any taxes in respect of income derived from the investment of the Escrow Funds, the Escrow Agent shall satisfy such liability to the extent possible from the Escrow Funds. The Parties, jointly and severally, shall indemnify, defend and hold the Escrow Agent harmless from and against any tax, late payment, interest, penalty or other cost or expense that may be assessed against the Escrow Agent on or with respect to the Escrow Funds and the investment thereof unless such tax, late payment, interest, penalty or other expense was directly caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Escrow Agent.

Section 3.1. Indemnification. The Parties, jointly and severally, shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Escrow Agent from and against any and all loss, liability, cost, damage and expense, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses or other professional fees and expenses which the Escrow Agent may suffer or incur by reason of any action, claim or proceeding brought against the Escrow Agent, arising out of or relating in any way to this Escrow Agreement or any transaction to which this Escrow Agreement relates, unless such loss, liability, cost, damage or expense shall have been finally adjudicated to have been directly caused by the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the Escrow Agent. The provisions of this Section 3.1 shall survive the resignation or removal of the Escrow Agent and the termination of this Escrow Agreement.

Section 3.2. Limitation of Liability. THE ESCROW AGENT SHALL NOT BE LIABLE, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, FOR ANY (I) DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES ARISING OUT OF THE SERVICES PROVIDED HEREUNDER, OTHER THAN DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES WHICH HAVE BEEN FINALLY ADJUDICATED TO HAVE DIRECTLY RESULTED FROM THE ESCROW AGENT’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT, OR (II) SPECIAL, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR LOSSES OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION LOST PROFITS), EVEN IF THE ESCROW AGENT HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSSES OR DAMAGES AND REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF ACTION.

Section 3.3. Resignation or Removal. The Escrow Agent may resign by furnishing written notice of its resignation to the Parties, and the Parties may remove the Escrow Agent by furnishing to the Escrow Agent a joint written notice of its removal along with payment of all fees and expenses to which it is entitled through the date of termination. Such resignation or removal, as the case may be, shall be effective thirty (30) days after the delivery of such notice or upon the earlier appointment of a successor, and the Escrow Agent’s sole responsibility thereafter shall be to safely keep the Escrow Funds to deliver the same to a successor escrow agent as shall be appointed by the Parties, as evidenced by a joint written notice filed with the Escrow Agent or in accordance with a court order. If the Parties have failed to appoint a successor escrow agent prior to the expiration of thirty (30) days following the delivery of such notice of resignation or removal, the Escrow Agent may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor escrow agent or for other appropriate relief, and any such resulting appointment shall be binding upon the Parties.

If any amount due to the Escrow Agent hereunder is not paid within thirty (30) days of the date due, the Escrow Agent in its sole discretion may charge interest on such amount at the rate of five percent (5%) per year. The Escrow Agent shall have, and is hereby granted, a prior lien upon the Escrow Funds with respect to its unpaid fees, non-reimbursed expenses and unsatisfied indemnification rights, superior to the interests of any other persons or entities and is hereby granted the right to set off and deduct any unpaid fees, non-reimbursed expenses and unsatisfied indemnification rights from the Escrow Funds.

Section 3.5. Disagreements.

The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to act on any such agreement, court order, or arbitration decision without further question, inquiry, or consent.

Section 3.6. Merger or Consolidation. Any corporation or association into which the Escrow Agent may be converted or merged, or with which it may be consolidated, or to which it may sell or transfer all or substantially all of its corporate trust business and assets as a whole or substantially as a whole, or any corporation or association resulting from any such conversion, sale, merger, consolidation or transfer to which the Escrow Agent is a party, shall be and become the successor escrow agent under this Escrow Agreement and shall have and succeed to the rights, powers, duties, immunities and privileges as its predecessor, without the execution or filing of any instrument or paper or the performance of any further act.

Section 3.7. Attachment of Escrow Funds; Compliance with Legal Orders. In the event that any portion of the Escrow Funds shall be attached, garnished or levied upon by any court order, or the delivery thereof shall be stayed or enjoined by an order of a court, or any order,

B-6

judgment or decree shall be made or entered by any court order affecting the Escrow Funds, the Escrow Agent is hereby expressly authorized, in its sole discretion, to respond as it deems appropriate or to comply with all writs, orders or decrees so entered or issued, or which it is advised by legal counsel of its own choosing is binding upon it, whether with or without jurisdiction.

Section 3.8. Force Majeure.

SUBCONTRACT PENDING NOVATION

This SUBCONTRACT PENDING NOVATION (together with the Exhibits hereto, this “Agreement”) is made as of [—], 2012, by and between AMPAC-ISP CORP., a Delaware corporation (“Contractor” or “AMPAC”) and MOOG INC., a New York corporation (“Buyer”). Contractor and Buyer are sometimes referred to in this Agreement as a “Party” or collectively as the “Parties.”

RECITALS:

R-1. Contractor has entered into certain contracts (the “Government Prime Contracts” or “Contracts”) with the United States Government (the “Government”) listed on Exhibit A.

R-2. Contractor and Buyer have entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement, effective as of June 4, 2012 (the “Purchase Agreement”), whereby Buyer will purchase from Contractor certain assets including assets used in performing the Government Prime Contracts and Contractor’s rights in the Government Prime Contracts under the terms and conditions as provided therein.

R-3. Contractor and Buyer, as part of the Purchase Agreement, have agreed to enter into documentation required for novation of each Government Prime Contract (the “Novation Agreements”) that will transfer and assign the Government Prime Contracts to Buyer upon the approval of the Government.

R-4. Pending approval of the aforementioned Novation Agreements by the Government, Contractor and Buyer desire to enter into a subcontract arrangement whereby Buyer will perform the Government Prime Contracts on a subcontract basis, to the same extent as if the Government Prime Contracts had already been novated, all as provided in the Purchase Agreement and this Agreement.

R-5. This Agreement supplements, and does not supersede, Section 5.16 of the Purchase Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the covenants and agreements of the Parties contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:

Section 1. Definitions; Recitals. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Purchase Agreement. The foregoing recitals are intended to be a material part of this Agreement, and the Recitals and Purchase Agreement are incorporated into this Agreement by reference.

Section 2. Contracts. The Government Prime Contracts, each in its entirety, and all contract documents relating thereto, including but not limited to delivery orders, supplements, schedules, amendments, and change orders issued and to be issued by the Government, are hereby incorporated by reference in this Agreement. Once made a part of this Agreement, any reference in such Government Prime Contracts to the “Government” or the “Contracting Officer” will mean Contractor, and any reference to the “Contractor” or AMPAC-ISP CORP. will mean

C-1

Buyer, except “Government” and “Contracting Officer”, as applicable, do not change (i) in the phrase “Government Property,” “Government Owned Property,” “Government Equipment,” and Government Owned Equipment”; (ii) when a right, act, authorization, or obligation can be granted or performed only by the Government, the Contracting Officer, or a duly appointed representative of either of the foregoing; (iii) except as otherwise provided in the Purchase Agreement or this Agreement, when access to proprietary financial information or other proprietary data is required; (iv) when title to property is to be transferred directly to the Government; and (v) when rights to intellectual property are to be granted to the Government. With respect to these incorporated clauses, the Parties agree that said clauses are not subject to literal interpretation if such interpretation is inconsistent with the prime/subcontractor relationship as specified by subcontract provisions that have been included specifically in this Agreement.

Section 3. Mutual Covenants. The Parties hereby mutually covenant and agree that, to the extent permitted by the Contracts and applicable law:

(a) Contractor hereby awards this Agreement to Buyer for the performance of all of the obligations of Contractor under the Contracts, including the statements of work and task orders issued under the Contracts, to the extent the Contracts have not yet been fully performed by Contractor, and Buyer hereby accepts this award.

(b) Buyer shall inure to all rights and benefits conferred or accruing under the Contracts, including all payments to be made under the Contracts, whether such rights and benefits are conferred or accrue before, on or after the Closing Date.

Section 4. Contractor Covenants. Contractor hereby covenants and agrees with Buyer that:

(a) If requested in writing by Buyer, Contractor shall send a request in writing, in a form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Buyer, to all account debtors party to the Contracts, including agencies of the U.S. Government, requesting each of them to make payment on all receivables due in respect of each such Contract directly to the financial institution designated by Buyer, provided that the fulfillment of such request is not prohibited by the terms of such Contract or applicable law.

(b) Until such time as the account debtor of each Contract shall make payments directly to Buyer, or to financial institutions designated by Buyer, in the event Contractor shall receive any payments relating to a Contract, Contractor shall hold such payments on behalf of Buyer and shall transfer such payments to Buyer by wire transfer to an account or accounts designated by Buyer. Contractor hereby grants to Buyer a limited power of attorney authorizing Buyer to prepare, execute and submit invoices under the Contracts in the name of Contractor.

(c) Buyer shall take such timely action as is reasonably necessary to allow Buyer to perform each Contract and to protect any rights that may exist or accrue under any such Contract. In connection with each Contract, Contractor (i) authorizes Buyer to act as agent on behalf of Contractor for purposes of performing and administering the Contracts, including

C-2

executing documents, discussing matters with customers and taking all other actions Buyer deems reasonably necessary in connection with its performance of the Contracts; and (ii) grants to Buyer a limited power of attorney to make such changes and amendments in the terms of the Contracts, in the name of Contractor, as may be necessary or desirable in order to assure that Buyer receives all economic benefits of the Contracts.

(d) Contractor shall not intentionally take any action or fail to take any action in connection with any of the Contracts that would materially impair or diminish, in any way, any of Contractor’s rights under the Contracts or the rights of Buyer under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Buyer.

(e) To the extent it has not already done so, Contractor shall deliver to Buyer a full and complete contract file for each Contract.

(f) Contractor shall use its reasonable commercial efforts to cause the Government Prime Contracts to be novated to Buyer.

Section 5. Buyer Covenants. Buyer hereby covenants and agrees with Contractor that:

(a) Buyer shall take such timely action as is reasonably necessary to enable Contractor to perform each Contract and to protect any rights of Contractor that may exist or accrue under any such Contract, provided, however, that nothing contained herein will obligate the Buyer with respect to any Retained Liabilities.

(b) Buyer agrees to perform, on behalf of Contractor, all the requirements, responsibilities and obligations of each Contract, to the extent permissible under the terms of each Contract and applicable law, in accordance with all terms and conditions in or incorporated by reference into, and all applicable laws and regulations applicable to, each such Contract; provided, however, that nothing contained herein will obligate the Buyer to perform, on behalf of Contractor, any Retained Liabilities. Any correspondence, invoices, or other written submissions, including bids or proposals for new or additional work, requests for equitable adjustments, claims, contract modifications, and requests for final decisions in connection with the Contracts will be prepared by Buyer in the name of Contractor and coordinated with and submitted for approval, and certification if appropriate, of Contractor (which approval and certification may not be unreasonably withheld), signed or certified promptly by Contractor, if approved, and submitted by Buyer to the Government. Contractor has designated [—] as Company’s Designated Contract Representative to receive and execute such documents, and Buyer has designated [—] as Purchaser’s Designated Contract Representative to submit such documents to, and receive such documents from, the Company’s Designated Contract Representative. Either Party may change its Designated Contract Representative by written notice to the other. All notices under this Agreement shall be given to the other Party’s Designated Contract Representative with copies to the designated Persons as set forth in Section 11.4 of the Purchase Agreement.

(c) For each Contract, if any, that prohibits the other party to such Contract from making payments as designated by Buyer, Buyer shall prepare all invoices to be submitted by Contractor to the other party to such Contract. Buyer shall submit all such invoices in the name of Contractor.

C-3

(d) Buyer shall use its reasonable commercial efforts to cause the Government Prime Contracts to be novated to Buyer.

Section 6. Term. The term of this Agreement shall begin on the Closing Date and shall continue with respect to each Contract until the earlier to occur of (a) novation of such Contract to Buyer, or (b) the satisfaction of all of Contractor’s obligations under, the receipt of final payment of amounts payable under, and the formal closeout of, the Contract; provided, however, that the provisions of Sections 5 (Buyer Covenants), Section 6 (Term), 12 (Entire Agreement), 13 (Governing Law), 15 (Jurisdiction), 17 (Third Party Beneficiaries) and 19 (Dispute Resolution) shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

Section 7. Notices. Any notice or other communication required or permitted under this Agreement will be deemed to have been duly given (a) five Business Days following deposit in the mails if sent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid; (b) when sent, if sent by facsimile or other electronic transmission, if receipt thereof is confirmed by telephone; (c) when delivered, if delivered personally to the intended recipient; and (d) two Business Days following deposit with a nationally recognized overnight courier service for overnight delivery, in each case addressed to the notice address set forth in Section 11.4 of the Purchase Agreement.

Section 8. Amendments; Waivers.

(a) Any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived if, and only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and signed, in the case of an amendment, by each Party, or in the case of a waiver, by the Party against whom the waiver is to be effective.

(b) No failure or delay by either Party in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. Except as otherwise provided herein, no action taken pursuant to this Agreement, including any investigation by or on behalf of any Party, shall be deemed to constitute a waiver by the Party taking such action of compliance with any representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement. Any term, covenant or condition of this Agreement may be waived at any time by the Party that is entitled to the benefit thereof, but only by a written notice signed by such Party expressly waiving such term or condition. The waiver by any Party of a breach of any provision hereunder shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any prior or subsequent breach of the same or any other provision hereunder.

Section 9. Transaction Costs. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation and negotiation of this Agreement shall be paid by the Party incurring such cost and expense.

Section 10. Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns; provided that Buyer may not assign, delegate or otherwise transfer, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Contractor.

C-4

The language used in this Agreement shall be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent and no rule of strict construction shall be applied against any party. Whenever this Agreement refers to a number of days, such number shall refer to calendar days unless Business Days are specified.

Section 12. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Purchase Agreement and the Novation Agreements constitute the entire agreement between the Parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and shall supersede all previous negotiations, commitments, agreements and understandings (both oral and written) with respect to such subject matter.

Section 13. Governing Law. This Agreement, and all claims or causes of action based upon, arising out of, or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to principles or rules of conflict of laws to the extent such principles or rules would require or permit the application of laws of another jurisdiction.

Section 14. Counterparts; Effectiveness. The Parties may execute this Agreement in counterparts, including facsimile, electronic mail/PDF or other electronic counterparts (no one of which counterparts contain the signatures of all Parties), each of which shall be an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

Section 15. Jurisdiction. Any proceeding or action based upon, arising out of or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby may be brought in the Delaware Chancery Court (or, if the Delaware Chancery Court shall be unavailable, any other court of the State of Delaware or, in the case of claims to which the federal courts have exclusive subject matter jurisdiction, any federal court of the United States of America sitting in the State of Delaware), and each of the Parties irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of each such court in any such proceeding or action, waives any objection it may now or hereafter have to personal jurisdiction, venue or to convenience of forum, agrees that all claims in respect of the

C-5

proceeding or action shall be heard and determined only in any such court, and agrees not to bring any proceeding or action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in any other court. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to affect the right of any Party to serve process in any manner permitted by law or to commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against any other party in any other jurisdiction, in each case, to enforce judgments obtained in any action, suit or proceeding brought pursuant to this Section 16. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THEY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE AND AGREE TO CAUSE THEIR RESPECTIVE SUBSIDIARIES TO WAIVE, THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION TO ENFORCE OR INTERPRET THE PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT.

Section 18. Disclaimer of Agency. The relationship established hereunder shall be solely that of contractor and subcontractor. Except as expressly provided herein, nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed in any way or for any purpose to constitute either Party an agent of the other Party in the conduct of such Party’s business. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed in any way to create a partnership or joint venture between the Parties.

Section 19. Dispute Resolution. In the event of any dispute between Contractor and Buyer with respect to this Agreement, each of Contractor and Buyer shall designate an employee as its representative to attempt to resolve the dispute and each such representative shall use reasonable commercial efforts to resolve the dispute promptly. If the individuals designated by Contractor and Buyer are unable to resolve the dispute promptly, the dispute shall be submitted to a member of senior management of each Party. Such members of senior management shall meet in person or by telephone conference at least once in the 10-day period following the submission of the dispute to them and shall use reasonable commercial efforts to resolve the dispute promptly. If such members of senior management are unable to resolve the dispute within 15 days of the submission of the dispute to them, the Parties may exercise any rights or remedies available to them at law.
