The Closing shall be deemed to occur and be effective as of 11:59 P.M., Eastern Time, on the Closing Date.

2.4 Purchase Price Adjustment.

(a) No later than three Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Sellers’ Representative will deliver to Buyer an internally prepared statement (the “Estimated Working Capital Statement”) setting forth Sellers’ good faith estimate of the Working Capital as of the Closing Date (the “Estimated Closing Working Capital”). The Estimated Working Capital Statement will be prepared in accordance with GAAP and shall be acceptable to Buyer in all reasonable respects. The Cash Purchase Price payable at the Closing will be (i) increased, dollar-for-dollar, to the extent the Estimated Closing Working Capital, as reflected on the Estimated Working Capital Statement, is greater than the Target Closing Working Capital or (ii) decreased, dollar-for-dollar, to the extent the Estimated Closing Working Capital, as reflected on the Estimated Working Capital Statement, is less than the Target Closing Working Capital.

(b) As promptly as practicable, but in no event later than 60 days following the Closing Date, Buyer shall cause to be prepared and delivered to the Sellers’ Representative an internally prepared statement setting forth the calculation of Working Capital as of the Closing Date (the “Closing Working Capital Statement”). The Closing Working Capital Statement will be prepared by Buyer in accordance with GAAP. The Sellers’ Representative shall be permitted to review the Closing Working Capital Statement and the work papers created by Buyer and its Representatives in connection with the preparation of the Closing Working Capital Statement and to meet with and ask questions of the individuals who prepared such Closing Working Capital Statement and related work papers in connection with the review of the Closing Working Capital Statement by the Sellers’ Representative.

(c) If the Sellers’ Representative does not agree with the Closing Working Capital Statement or any item contained therein or the preparation thereof, the Sellers’ Representative shall notify Buyer in writing of its objections within 30 days after its receipt of the Closing Working Capital Statement and shall set forth, in reasonable detail, the reasons for the Sellers’ Representative’s objections (an “Objection Notice”). If the Sellers’ Representative fails to deliver an Objection Notice within such 30-day period, the Sellers shall be deemed to have irrevocably accepted as final the Closing Working Capital Statement. If the Sellers’ Representative delivers to Buyer an Objection Notice within such 30-day period, the Sellers’ Representative and Buyer shall endeavor in good faith to resolve such disputed items within 30 days after Buyer’s receipt of the Sellers’ Representative’s Objection Notice. To the extent Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative are able to resolve the disputed items within such 30-day period, Buyer and the Sellers shall be deemed to have accepted, as final, such disputed items as so resolved and the Closing Working Capital Statement shall be revised to reflect such resolved items as of the Closing Date. To the extent Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative are unable to

resolve all such disputed items within such 30-day period, Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative shall engage, within 10 days following the expiration of such 30-day period, McGladrey, which Buyer and each Seller respectively represents and warrants is not engaged by, or affiliated with, and is independent from, Buyer and/or any of its Affiliates (other than, in the case of Buyer, Avista Capital Partners, which has and may have portfolio companies that may use McGladrey and which has used and may use McGladrey for certain advisory services, but McGladrey is not the primary accounting firm of Avista Capital Partners) (the “Independent Accounting Firm”) to resolve the items remaining in dispute (the “Disputed Items”). If such accounting firm is unwilling or unable to accept the engagement as the Independent Accounting Firm, then another mutually agreed nationally or regionally recognized accounting firm that does not have an existing relationship with Buyer or its Affiliates or any of the Sellers or their Affiliates will be engaged to act as the Independent Accounting Firm. Within 10 days following the engagement of the Independent Accounting Firm, each of the Sellers’ Representative and Buyer shall submit to the Independent Accounting Firm their respective positions with regard to the Disputed Items. The Buyer and the Sellers shall use reasonable efforts to cause the Independent Accounting Firm to resolve all the Disputed Items within 30 days. The selection by the Independent Accounting Firm shall be conclusive and binding on the Sellers and Buyer absent manifest error. In connection with the Independent Accounting Firm’s determinations hereunder, (i) the scope of the Independent Accounting Firm’s review shall be limited to only the unresolved Disputed Items, (ii) the Independent Accounting Firm shall not assign a value to any Disputed Item greater than the greatest value for such Disputed Item claimed by either party or less than the lowest value for such Disputed Item claimed by either party, in each case as presented to the Independent Accounting Firm, and (iii) the Independent Accounting Firm shall conduct its determination activities in a manner wherein all materials submitted to it are held in confidence and shall not be disclosed to third parties, except to the extent required by applicable law. After the Independent Accounting Firm has resolved such Disputed Items, Buyer and the Sellers shall be deemed to have accepted as final a revised Closing Working Capital Statement, which shall be prepared by the Independent Accounting Firm and which shall reflect (A) the Disputed Items, if any, resolved by agreement of the Sellers’ Representative and Buyer and (B) the Disputed Items resolved by the Independent Accounting Firm, and setting forth the basis for its resolution of each of the Disputed Items (including its determination of the allocation of fees and expenses pursuant to Section 2.4(f)). The Closing Working Capital Statement as finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.4(c) (whether by failure of the Sellers’ Representative to deliver a notice of objections, by agreement of the parties or by final determination of the Independent Accounting Firm) shall be referred to herein as the “Final Closing Working Capital Statement” and the Working Capital calculation resulting therefrom shall be referred to herein as the “Final Closing Working Capital.” The parties hereto agree that judgment may be entered upon the determination of the Independent Accounting Firm in any court having jurisdiction over the party or parties against which such determination is to be enforced.

(d) At a supplemental closing (the “Supplemental Closing”) to be held promptly after the determination of the Final Closing Working Capital, but in no event later than five Business Days after the delivery of the Final Closing Working Capital Statement in accordance with Section 2.4(c), the Cash Purchase Price shall be adjusted on a dollar-for-dollar basis as follows:

(i) if (A) the Final Closing Working Capital exceeds (B) the Estimated Closing Working Capital, then the Cash Purchase Price shall be increased by an amount equal to such excess; or

(ii) if (A) the Final Closing Working Capital is less than (B) the Estimated Closing Working Capital, then the Cash Purchase Price shall be decreased by an amount equal to such difference.

(e) Any adjustment to the Cash Purchase Price pursuant to Section 2.4(d) shall be effected by means of a cash payment by Buyer to the Members (in the event of an increase in the Cash Purchase Price) or by the Members to Buyer (in the event of a decrease in the Cash Purchase Price), which cash payment shall be made to the recipient thereof at the Supplemental Closing. Any payment to or required from the Members at the Supplemental Closing shall be allocated among them in accordance with their Ownership Percentage, and to the extent payment is required from the Members, each of the Sellers will be jointly and severally liable for such payment.

(f) Any payments due pursuant to Section 2.4(e) shall be paid at the Supplemental Closing by means of wire transfer of funds to an account designated by the recipients of such payment in writing at least two days prior to the date of the Supplemental Closing. All fees and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm selected pursuant to Section 2.4(f), if any, shall be borne by the party whose position with respect to the Closing Working Capital Statement is further from the actual Final Closing Working Capital Statement, as determined by the Independent Accounting Firm.

2.5 Purchase Price Allocation.

(a) The consideration paid hereunder (including the liabilities of the Company to the extent required by applicable Law) shall be allocated among the assets of the Company using their fair market values as of the Closing Date determined consistent with the allocation as set forth on Schedule 2.5 (the “Allocation Schedule”). The parties shall each adopt and utilize the fair market values on the Allocation Schedule for purposes of filing any applicable Tax forms and all federal, state and other Tax Returns filed be each of them (unless otherwise required by Law), and each of them will not take any position inconsistent therewith upon examination of any such Tax Return, in any audit, Proceeding or otherwise with respect to such Tax Returns (unless otherwise required by Law). The parties hereto agree to provide promptly the other with any other information required to complete any of such applicable Tax forms.

(b) Any payment made under Section 11.2 shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price unless a determination (as defined in Section 1313 of the Code) with respect to the Indemnified Party causes any such payment not to constitute an adjustment to the Purchase Price for federal income Tax purposes. In the event of an adjustment to the Purchase Price as a result of a payment made under Section 11.2, Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative shall amend the Allocation Schedule consistent with the items to which such payment relates or, if such payment does not relate to any specific item, on a pro rata basis based upon the percentage allocations to each asset category as set forth in the Allocation Schedule. The Allocation Schedule, as the same may be amended in accordance with this Section 2.5(b) shall, for federal

and state income Tax purposes, be binding on the Sellers, Buyer and the Company. Sellers, Buyer and the Company will file their respective Tax Returns in accordance with such Allocation Schedule and shall not take any position inconsistent with such Allocation Schedule, unless the Sellers’ Representative or Buyer, as the case may be, reasonably determines (and notifies the other parties to this Agreement) that such allocation is contrary to applicable Law.

Thereafter, each party shall use its reasonable efforts to obtain, or cause to be obtained, HSR clearance with respect to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as promptly as practicable. Each party shall cooperate in all reasonable respects with the other parties in promptly seeking to obtain such HSR clearance. The parties hereto shall not willfully take any action that will have the effect of delaying, impairing or impeding such HSR filing or clearance, subject to each party’s obligations to comply with applicable Laws.

(b) Prior to Closing, Sellers shall use all reasonable efforts to give all notices to, and obtain all consents from, all third parties that are described in Schedule 5.4.

(c) Without limiting the generality of the parties’ undertakings pursuant to subsection (a) above, each of the parties hereto shall use its reasonable efforts to:

(i) respond to any inquiries from any Governmental Authority regarding the HSR filing with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any agreement or document contemplated hereby;

(ii) avoid the imposition of any order or the taking of any action that would restrain, alter or enjoin the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any agreement or document contemplated hereby; and

(iii) in the event any Order adversely affecting the ability of the parties to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any agreement or document contemplated hereby has been issued, to have such Order vacated or lifted.

(d) All analyses, appearances, meetings, discussions, presentations, memoranda, briefs, filings, arguments, and proposals made by or on behalf of either party before any Governmental Authority or the staff or regulators of any Governmental Authority, in connection with the HSR filing for the transactions contemplated hereunder (but, for the avoidance of doubt, not including any interactions between Sellers or the Company with Governmental Authorities in the Ordinary Course of Business, any disclosure which is not permitted by Law or any disclosure containing confidential information) shall be disclosed to the other party hereunder a reasonable time in advance of any filing, submission or attendance, it being the intent that the parties will consult and cooperate with one another, and consider in good faith the views of one another, in connection with any such analyses, appearances, meetings, discussions, presentations, memoranda, briefs, filings, arguments, and proposals. Each party shall give notice to the other party with respect to any HSR related meeting, discussion, appearance or contact with any Governmental Authority or the staff or regulators of any Governmental Authority, with such notice being sufficient to provide the other party with the opportunity to attend and participate in such meeting, discussion, appearance or contact.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 7.11 shall require, or be construed to require, Buyer or any of its Affiliates to agree to (i) sell, hold, divest, discontinue or limit, before or after the Closing Date, any assets, businesses or interests of Buyer, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates; (ii) any conditions relating to, or changes or restrictions in, the operations of any such assets, businesses or interests which, in either case, could reasonably be expected to adversely impact the economic or business benefits to Buyer of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; or (iii) any material modification or waiver of the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

(f) Buyer shall be responsible for the payment of all HSR filing fees.

7.12 Exclusive Dealing.

(a) During the period from the date of this Agreement until the earlier of (i) the date this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Article 10 and (ii) the Closing Date, neither the Sellers, nor any of their Affiliates (including the Company Parties) shall take any action, directly or indirectly, to solicit or engage in discussions or negotiations with, or provide any information to, any Person, other than Buyer (and its Affiliates and Representatives), concerning the purchase of the Company or the Company Subsidiary (whether by merger, sale of assets, sale of equity, refinancing, recapitalization or other similar transaction).

(b) Immediately following the execution of this Agreement, the Sellers shall, and shall cause each of their respective Affiliates and Representatives to, terminate any existing discussions or negotiations with any Persons, other than Buyer (and its Affiliates and the Representatives), concerning the purchase of the Company or the Company Subsidiary (whether by merger, sale of assets, sale of equity, recapitalization or other similar transaction).

(c) Buyer acknowledges that the mere receipt by any Seller or the Company or any of their Representatives of an unsolicited inquiry or proposal regarding any transaction of the type described in this Section 7.12 will not constitute a breach of the Sellers’ obligations under this Section 7.12, so long as the Sellers do not otherwise violate any of the covenants imposed upon the Sellers under this Section 7.12. The Sellers shall promptly advise Buyer orally and in writing of any request for information or inquiry or proposal regarding any transaction of the type described in this Section 7.12, the material terms and conditions of such request or inquiry, and the identity of the Person making the same.

7.13 Efforts to Close. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, and except as otherwise as set forth in Section 7.11, Buyer and the Sellers shall use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to (i) take or cause to be taken all actions, and to do or cause to be done all other things, necessary, proper or advisable to expeditiously satisfy the closing conditions set forth in Article 9 and to consummate the Transactions as promptly as practicable, and (ii) obtain in a timely manner all necessary waivers, consents and approvals and to effect all necessary registrations and filings in connection with the foregoing.

7.14 Transfer of Cash. Immediately prior to the Closing Date, Sellers shall be permitted to (a) sweep, or cause to be swept, to accounts of the Sellers collected funds in the bank accounts of the Company and the Company Subsidiary, and (b) transfer, or cause to be transferred, to the Sellers all Cash (it being understood that nothing in this Agreement shall require the Sellers to ensure or otherwise convey to Buyer any Cash at the Closing). For purposes of clarity, no sweep or transfer of Cash as contemplated by this Section 7.14 shall constitute, be deemed to constitute, or otherwise result in (i) a breach of any representation or warranty made by the Sellers under this Agreement (whether as of the date hereof or as brought down on and as of the Closing Date pursuant to Section 9.2(a)) or in any certificate delivered hereunder, (ii) a breach of any covenant set forth in this Agreement, or (iii) the failure of any condition to Closing provided in Article 9 hereof. For the avoidance of doubt, any dividend or other distribution of Cash by the Company, or any conversion of any asset of any Company Party that is not a current asset, shall not affect the Target Closing Working Capital or Sellers’ obligations under Section 2.4.

7.15 Post-Closing Information. For a period of seven years or such shorter period that records are required to be retained by applicable Law, following the Closing, the Buyer shall, and shall cause the Company and any applicable Affiliates of the Buyer to, provide to the Sellers and/or their respective Representatives and Affiliates information (in any form) in its possession, following receipt of a reasonable, written request therefor, to the extent necessary for each Seller or its Affiliates to prepare for, prosecute or defend against any Proceeding related to

the Company or the Company Business, or to enable the Sellers, their Affiliates, and their respective Representatives to prepare, complete and file all required federal, State and local Tax Returns in accordance with applicable Law with respect to the period before Closing.

7.16 2010 Audited Financials. From the date hereof until the Closing, Sellers shall, and shall cause the Company Parties and their respective officers, employees, advisors and other representatives to, at Buyer’s sole cost and expense, use commercially reasonable efforts to progress the preparation of the audited financial statements of the Company for the fiscal year ended 2010, together with unqualified audit reports relating thereto and a consent from the Company’s auditors consenting to the filing of such financial statements in Buyer’s filings with the SEC.

7.17 Termination of Affiliate Arrangements. Prior to the Closing but conditioned upon the Closing, except for this Agreement and any indemnity, contribution, sellers’ representative or other agreements entered among the Sellers (and not the Company) in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, each Company Party shall terminate, or cause to be terminated, any Contract(s) between any Company Party, on the one hand, and any director or officer of any Company Party, any Seller or Owner, or any Affiliate of such Seller or Owner, on the other hand, in full without any consideration or further liability to any Company Party, and the Company shall deliver to Buyer evidence of such termination in a form reasonably acceptable to Buyer.

7.18 Waiver of Right of First Offer. Each Member hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right it may have (whether pursuant to the LLC Agreement, any other Contract or otherwise) to purchase or otherwise acquire any Interests not owned by such Member as contemplated by this Agreement, and further waives any obligation of the other Members to deliver any notice to such Member in connection with sale of the Interests contemplated hereunder.

ARTICLE 8: TAX MATTERS

8.1 Apportionment of Taxes; Certain Tax Returns.

(a) Apportionment of Taxes of the Company. For purposes of determining the Sellers’ obligation to indemnify the Buyer Indemnified Parties pursuant to Section 11.2(a)(v):

(i) The parties will, to the extent permitted by applicable Laws, elect with the relevant Taxing Authority to treat for all purposes the Apportionment Date as the last day of a Pre-Closing Tax Period of the Company and the Company Subsidiary, such that the Company and the Company Subsidiary file applicable Tax Returns for a period that end on (and include) the Apportionment Date; and

(ii) In the case of any Straddle Period, where applicable Laws do not permit the Company or the Company Subsidiary to treat the Apportionment Date as the last day of a Pre-Closing Tax Period of the Company or the Company Subsidiary, then for purposes of this Agreement, the portion of any Tax that is attributable to the portion of such Straddle Period ending on the Apportionment Date shall be: (A) in the case of income Taxes or Taxes resulting

from, or imposed on, sales, receipts, use, transfers or assignments of property, or wages, withholdings, or other payments (including, for the avoidance of doubt, Pennsylvania’s capital stock tax), the amount that would be payable for such period determined as if the Company or the Company Subsidiary filed a Tax Return for the portion of the Straddle Period ending on (and including) the Apportionment Date, based upon an interim closing of the books of the Company or the Company Subsidiary on the Apportionment Date; and (B) in the case of all other Taxes, an amount equal to (1) the amount of Taxes for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by (2) a fraction, (y) the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the portion of the Straddle Period ending on (and including) the Apportionment Date and (z) the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire Straddle Period.

(b) Seller Prepared Tax Returns. Sellers, at their sole cost and expense, but subject to Buyer’s review and comment, shall be required to, and shall have the sole and exclusive authority to, prepare or cause to be prepared on behalf of the Company its Form 1065, U.S. Return of Partnership Income, for the Tax year that includes the Closing Date, including the issuance of a Schedule K-1, Partner’s Share of Income, Deductions, Credits, etc., to each Person who was a partner for U.S. federal income tax purposes of the Company during such Tax year and whether to file any extension to file such Tax Return (“Seller Prepared Tax Returns”). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Sellers shall cause the Company to make the election described in Section 754 of the Code on such Form 1065 for the tax year that includes the Closing Date. Sellers shall submit, or cause to be submitted, such Seller Prepared Tax Returns to Buyer at least thirty (30) days prior to the due date for the filing of such Seller Prepared Tax Returns (taking into account any valid extensions of time to file) for Buyer’s review and comment.

8.2 Transfer Taxes. All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration, recording, value added and other such Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with consummation of the Transactions (“Transfer Taxes”) are to be borne one half by the Buyer and one half by the Sellers. Tax Returns and other documentation relating to Transfer Taxes shall be prepared and caused to be filed by the Buyer, at its own expense, and Buyer shall timely pay the Transfer Taxes set forth on such Tax Return, subject, however, to reimbursement by the Sellers for its share of the Transfer Taxes within five days of payment. The parties hereto and their Affiliates shall cooperate in connection with the filing of any such Tax Returns for Transfer Taxes including joining in the execution of such Tax Returns for Transfer Taxes and in obtaining all available exemptions from such Transfer Taxes.

8.3 Cooperation; Audits. Sellers, upon the written request of Buyer, will cooperate with Buyer and the Company, and Buyer, upon the written request of Sellers, will cooperate, and will cause the Company to cooperate, with Sellers, and, at any time and from time to time, afford to the other party or its or their Affiliates or any of its or their Representatives, full and complete access to the books and records of the Company (including all accounting, financial and Tax records and Tax Returns) as shall be necessary or desirable to permit Sellers, Buyer and the Company, and its and their Affiliates, to (i) effectuate the provisions of Sections 8.1, 8.2, and 8.4, (ii) amend any Tax Return, or (iii) obtain any Tax certificate or document from a third party. In connection therewith, Buyer will cause the Company and its and their Affiliates, to make available, or cause to be made available, to Sellers, on a mutually convenient basis, such qualified personnel of Buyer and the Company, and its and their Affiliates, as Sellers may

reasonably request to assist in the compilation of the information necessary to prepare and file the Tax Returns referred to in Section 8.1(b) and otherwise effectuate the provisions of Sections 8.1, 8.2 and 8.4.

8.4 Certain Controversies. Buyer will, and Buyer will cause the Company and its and their Affiliates to, promptly notify Sellers in writing upon receipt by Buyer, the Company or its or their Affiliates of (i) written notice of any pending or threatened examination, investigation, audit or other similar Proceeding in respect of any Seller Prepared Tax Return, or (ii) the issuance by any Taxing Authority to Buyer, the Company or its or their Affiliates, of a written notice of deficiency, a notice of settlement or reassessment, a proposed adjustment, or the written assertion of any claim or demand concerning any Seller Prepared Tax Return (a “Tax Controversy”). Sellers shall have the right, at their sole cost and expense, to control any such examination, investigation, audit or other Proceeding, assertion or determination by any Taxing Authority, initiate any claim for refund or amended return, and contest, resolve and defend against any deficiency, assessment, settlement, reassessment, adjustment, claim or demand concerning any Seller Prepared Tax Return, provided, however, that if any Tax Controversy would affect any item of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit of Buyer or the Company for any period after the Closing, Sellers shall not settle the portion of the Tax Controversy that relates to such item(s) without Buyer’s written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, and Buyer and the Company shall be entitled to attend and participate in any such Tax Controversy at their sole cost and expense.

8.5 Tax Treatment. Except as otherwise required by Law, Buyer and Sellers agree that the purchase of the Interests by Buyer in exchange for the Purchase Price shall, for U.S. federal income tax purposes (and state and local income Tax purposes where applicable), be reported (a) as a “merger or consolidation” (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.708-1(c)) of the Company and Buyer, governed by the “assets-over” form described in Treasury Regulations Section 1.708-1(c)(3)(i), in which the Company is the “terminated” partnership (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.708-1(c)) and Buyer is the “resulting” partnership (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.708-1(c)), and the applicable Sellers are treated as selling a portion of their Interests to Buyer for each such Seller’s share of the Cash Purchase Price pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.708-1(c)(4) (and each such Seller hereby expressly consents to such application of Treasury Regulations Section 1.708-1(c)(4)) immediately prior to the Closing. Except as required by Law, none of the parties hereto shall take any position for U.S. federal income tax purposes (and state and local Tax purposes to the extent applicable) that is inconsistent with such treatment.

8.6 Tax Treatment of Indemnity Payments. For U.S. federal income tax purposes (and state, local, and foreign Tax purposes where applicable), any indemnity payment by the Sellers to Buyer made pursuant to Section 11.2(a) and any indemnity payment by Buyer to the Sellers made pursuant to Section 11.2(c) to the extent attributable to the Unit Purchase Price will be treated as Capital Contributions (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) by Sellers to Buyer and distributions from Buyer to the Sellers, respectively; provided, however, that such payments will not affect (a) the Capital Account (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) of any Seller or (b) the distributions or allocations to be made to any Seller under the Partnership Agreement; provided, further, that nothing in this sentence shall affect Buyer’s ability to adjust the Carrying Values (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) of any assets.

(g) Claims Taken Into Account in Determining Final Closing Working Capital. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall any Person have an obligation to indemnify or hold harmless any Indemnified Party from or against

Losses that are duplicative of Losses for which the Indemnified Party or Affiliate thereof has already been reimbursed, indemnified or held harmless under any other provision of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Sellers will not have any indemnification obligations hereunder, and no Losses shall be deemed to have been incurred by Buyer or any Buyer Indemnified Party, resulting from or relating to any Liability or other matter (including with respect to Taxes) that was taken into account in the determination of Final Closing Working Capital, provided that Sellers have paid Buyer the amount of any Working Capital deficit as provided in Section 2.4.

(h) Losses Net of Insurance Proceeds. If an Indemnified Party reasonably determines that any loss, claim or other Liability that gives rise to the right to receive indemnification hereunder is covered by insurance, then such Indemnified Party shall file a claim thereunder and the amount of any Losses otherwise recoverable under this Article 11 shall be reduced by the amount of such proceeds actually received by the Indemnified Party or Affiliate thereof (net of any costs reasonably incurred to obtain such insurance proceeds) (such net amount, a “Net Insurance Recovery”). In connection with any such claim, at the request of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party agrees to subrogate its rights under such insurance claim to the Indemnifying Party. If an Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates actually receives any such insurance proceeds after such Indemnified Party is indemnified with respect to all or a portion of any Losses under this Article 11, such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party and pay to such Indemnifying Party the amount of the Net Insurance Recovery with respect to such Losses.

11.4 Indemnification Procedures.

(a) Third Party Claims.

(i) If any Person entitled to indemnification under this Agreement (an “Indemnified Party”) receives notice of the assertion of any claim or of the commencement of any Proceeding by any Person who is not a party hereto or an Affiliate of a party hereto (a “Third Party Claim”) against such Indemnified Party, with respect to which a party hereto is or may be required to provide indemnification under this Agreement (an “Indemnifying Party”), the Indemnified Party shall give written notice regarding such claim (a “Claims Notice”) to the Indemnifying Party within 30 days after becoming aware of such claim. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, which shall be exercised by delivering written notice to the Indemnified Party (the “Defense Notice”) within 30 days after receipt from the Indemnified Party of a Claim Notice, which Defense Notice shall specify the counsel it will appoint to defend such claim, to conduct at its expense the defense against such claim in its own name, or if necessary in the name of the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party shall have the right to approve such defense counsel, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. An Indemnifying Party’s delivery of a Defense Notice shall constitute an acceptance of its obligation hereunder to indemnify the Indemnified Party with respect to all Losses, if any, resulting from the subject Third Party Claim. A failure by an Indemnified Party to give timely, complete or accurate notice as provided in this Section 11.4(a)(i) will not affect the rights or obligations of any Indemnified Party unless the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced thereby (so long as a valid Claims Notice is given before the expiration of the applicable period set forth in Section 11.1). Notwithstanding any provision contained herein to the contrary, the

Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume control of such defense and shall pay the reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party, if the claim over which the Indemnifying Party seeks to assume control (i) seeks non-monetary relief, (ii) involves criminal allegations, (iii) involves a Material Customer, (iv) involves a Material Supplier that has material interaction with the Company’s customers, (v) involves a claim that, upon petition by the Indemnified Party, the appropriate court rules that the Indemnifying Party failed or is failing to vigorously prosecute or defend or (vi) involves a claim that is reasonably expected to result in Losses to the Indemnified Party in excess of the amount then available for indemnification under this Article 11.

(ii) If the Indemnifying Party shall fail to give a Defense Notice within the required 30-day period set forth in Section 11.4(a)(i), it shall be deemed to have elected not to conduct the defense of the subject claim, and in such event the Indemnified Party shall have the right, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, to conduct the defense in good faith and appoint defense counsel and to consent to the entry of any judgment or compromise and settle the Third Party Claim in good faith without prior consent of the Indemnifying Party; provided, however, that with respect to any claim identified in the last sentence of Section 11.4(a)(i), no Indemnified Party shall consent to the entry of any judgment or compromise or enter into any settlement without the prior written consent of (but with prior written notice to) the Indemnifying Party if: (i) such judgment or settlement does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by each claimant or plaintiff to each Indemnifying Party of a full release from all Liability in respect to such Third Party Claim, (ii) such judgment or settlement would result in the finding or admission of any violation of any Legal Requirement, (iii) such judgment or settlement would require the payment by any Indemnifying Party of any amount(s) under the terms thereof, or (iv) as a result of such judgment or settlement, injunctive or other equitable or similar relief would be imposed against any Indemnifying Party or otherwise require any Indemnifying Party to submit to any limitation on its activities under the terms thereof. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right at its expense to participate in the conduct of the defense of any Claim by the Indemnified Party, assisted by counsel of its own choosing, and, for purposes of clarity, the Indemnifying Party shall not be deemed to have accepted, or waived any rights or defenses with respect to, any liability for or with respect to any claim for which indemnification is sought hereunder as a result of any failure to deliver a Defense Notice within the required 30-day period set forth in Section 11.4(a)(i) or for any matter identified in the last sentence of Section 11.4(a)(i). The Indemnified Party shall keep the Indemnifying Party reasonably informed as to the status of the defense of any Claim conducted by the Indemnified Party.

(iii) If the Indemnifying Party does deliver a Defense Notice within the required 30-day period set forth in Section 11.4(a)(i) and thereby elects to conduct the defense of the subject Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall conduct the defense in good faith at its expense and shall have the right to consent to the entry of any judgment or compromise and settle the Third Party Claim in good faith without prior consent of the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that no Indemnifying Party shall consent to the entry of any judgment or compromise or enter into any settlement without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party if: (i) such judgment or settlement does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by each claimant or plaintiff to each Indemnified Party of a full release from all Liability in respect to such Third Party Claim, (ii) such judgment or settlement would result in the finding or admission of any violation of any Legal Requirement, (iii) such judgment or settlement would

impose Liability on the part of the Indemnified Party for which the Indemnified Party is not indemnified hereunder, or (iv) as a result of such judgment or settlement, injunctive or other equitable or similar relief would be imposed against any Indemnified Party or such judgment or settlement could reasonably be expected to interfere with or adversely affect any Indemnified Party’s business or operations as conducted in the Ordinary Course of Business consistent with past practice. The Indemnified Party shall have the right at its expense to participate in such defense assisted by counsel of its own choosing.

(b) Direct Claims. If any claim for indemnification hereunder involves a matter other than a Third-Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”), the Indemnified Party shall promptly deliver a Claim Notice to an Indemnifying Party requesting indemnification and specifying the basis on which indemnification is sought and the amount of asserted Losses. The failure by any Indemnified Party to notify the Indemnifying Party promptly (so long as a valid Claims Notice is given before the expiration of the applicable period set forth in Section 11.1) shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability that it may have to such Indemnified Party under Section 11.2, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party has been materially prejudiced by such failure. The Indemnifying Party shall have 30 days to object to such Direct Claim by delivery of a written notice of such objection to the Indemnified Party specifying in reasonable detail the basis for such objection. No action shall be taken in respect of such Direct Claim by the Indemnified Party until the expiration of such 30-day response period; provided, however, that this limitation shall not apply to any action by the Indemnified Party seeking an injunction, a permanent or temporary restraining order or any other form of equitable relief. Failure to timely so object shall constitute a final and binding acceptance of the Direct Claim by the Indemnifying Party. If an objection is timely interposed by the Indemnifying Party, then the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall negotiate in good faith for a period of 30 days from the date the Indemnified Party receives such objection (the “Negotiation Period”). After the Negotiation Period, if the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party still cannot agree on the resolution of a Direct Claim, either the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party may submit the dispute concerning such Direct Claim for judicial resolution as provided in Section 13.10.

(c) Final Judgments. Any final judgment entered or settlement agreed upon pursuant to and in accordance with this Article 11 shall be binding upon the Indemnifying Party, and shall conclusively be deemed to be an obligation with respect to which the Indemnified Party is entitled to prompt indemnification hereunder.

(d) Tax Matters. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the provisions of Section 11.4(a) do not apply to any indemnification claim under Section 11.2 with respect to Taxes, and any claim for indemnification with respect to Taxes that arises as a result of any Third Party Claim shall be subject to the provisions of Section 11.4(b) as a Direct Claim at such time as the Indemnified Party seeks indemnification from an Indemnifying Party with respect to such Taxes.

11.5 Exclusive Remedy.

(a) Exclusive Remedy. Other than as set forth in Section 13.8 (Specific Performance) and Section 7.10 (Non-Competition; Non-Solicitation), or with respect to any Fraud Claim, the parties acknowledge and agree that their sole and exclusive remedy with

respect to any and all claims (other than claims arising from actual fraud) for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, regardless of the manner in which such claim is characterized or pleaded (i.e. whether such claim is characterized or pleaded as arising in tort, breach of contract, strict liability, indemnification, or otherwise) shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article 11. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement it may have against the other parties hereto and their Affiliates and each of their respective Representatives arising under or based upon any applicable Law, except pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article 11.

11.6 No Set-Off. Buyer may set-off against, recoup, reduce, or otherwise appropriate any payments or other amounts due from Buyer to any of the Sellers from time to time (whether pursuant to Section 2.4 or otherwise) only for those amounts owed as determined pursuant to a final, non-appealable judgment by Sellers to Buyer, or any of the other Buyer Indemnified Parties, from time to time under this Article 11.

11.7 Buyer’s Knowledge of Sellers’ Breaches. No claim for misrepresentation or breach of warranty or failure to comply with any covenant hereunder shall be made by any Buyer Indemnified Party if such fact or event was expressly disclosed by Sellers in the Schedules. Except as set forth above, Buyer hereby expressly reserves the right to seek indemnity or other remedy for any Losses arising out of or relating to any breach of any representation or warranty contained herein, notwithstanding any investigation by, or knowledge of, Buyer or its representatives in respect of any fact or circumstances that reveals the occurrence of any such breach, whether before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, as of the date of this Agreement, Buyer does not have actual knowledge of any breaches of the representations and warranties made by the Sellers for which Buyer has a current intent to make a claim for indemnification under Article 11 after the Closing. For purposes of this Section 11.7, “actual knowledge” of Buyer shall mean the actual knowledge of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇, and ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇.

11.8 Agreement to Mitigate. Each Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate to the extent required by applicable Law any Losses for which such Indemnified Party seeks or may seek indemnification under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if the Indemnified Party mitigates its Losses after the Indemnifying Party has paid the Indemnified Party under any indemnification provision hereof in respect of such Losses, the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party and pay to the Indemnifying Party the extent of the value of the benefit to the Indemnified Party of such mitigation (less the cost and expense incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection therewith) within 30 days after such benefit is received.

ARTICLE 12: SELLER MATTERS

12.1 Sellers’ Representative. Each of the Sellers hereby irrevocably makes, constitutes, and appoints ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇ (in his capacity as the chief executive officer of INAP

and, to the extent he is not chief executive officer of INAP, in his individual capacity) as the Sellers’ Representative and authorizes and empowers the Sellers’ Representative to receive all demands and notices on or with respect to the Sellers hereunder as such Seller’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact and agent, and for such Seller and in such Seller’s name, to (i) receive all demands, notices, or other communications directed to such Seller under this Agreement and to take any action (or to determine to refrain from taking any action) with respect thereto as he may deem appropriate as effectively as such Seller could act for himself/herself (including, without limitation, the settlement or compromise of any dispute or controversy) and (ii) execute and deliver all instruments and documents of every kind incident to the foregoing with the same effect as if such Seller had executed and delivered such instruments and documents personally. Accordingly, any demands, notices or other communications directed to the Sellers hereunder shall be deemed effective if given to the Sellers’ Representative. Upon the death, resignation or incapacity of the Sellers’ Representative, a successor shall be appointed by the remaining Sellers within the 30-day period immediately following the date of such death, resignation or incapacity. The resignation of any Sellers’ Representative shall not be effective until a successor Sellers’ Representative has been appointed, and has accepted such appointment in accordance with the provisions of this Section 12.1. The selection of a successor Sellers’ Representative appointed in any manner permitted in this Section 12.1 shall be final and binding upon all of the Sellers and written notice of such selection and appointment shall be promptly provided to Buyer.

12.2 No Fees or Commissions. The Sellers’ Representative will not be entitled to any fee, commission or other compensation for the performance of its service hereunder.

12.3 Indemnification. In dealing with this Agreement and any instruments, agreements or documents relating thereto, and in exercising or failing to exercise all or any of the powers conferred upon the Sellers’ Representative hereunder or thereunder: (i) the Sellers’ Representative will not assume any, and will incur no, liability whatsoever to any of the Sellers because of any error in judgment or other act or omission performed or omitted hereunder or in connection with this Agreement including, without limitation, by reason of the negligence of the Sellers’ Representative; (ii) the Sellers’ Representative will be entitled to rely on the advice of counsel, public accountants or other independent experts experienced in the matter at issue, and any error in judgment or other act or omission of the Sellers’ Representative pursuant to such advice will not subject the Sellers’ Representative to any liability to the Company, Buyer or any other Person; and (iii) each of the Sellers hereby indemnifies and holds harmless the Sellers’ Representative from any loss, damage, cost and expense (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses) arising from or related to, or in connection with seeking legal or other advice in connection with, its performance of its duties as the Sellers’ Representative hereunder.

ARTICLE 13: MISCELLANEOUS

13.1 Expenses. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each of the parties shall bear their respective expenses incurred or to be incurred in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements and the completion of the Transactions. For the avoidance of doubt, Sellers shall be responsible for all Selling Expenses.

13.2 No Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement may be assigned or delegated, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise by any of the parties without the prior written consent of each Seller and the Buyer, and any such assignment without such prior written consent shall be null and void. No assignment shall release the assigning party of its obligations or liabilities under this Agreement. Subject to the preceding sentences, this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Notwithstanding the above, Buyer may, without the consent of Sellers, assign its rights under this Agreement to (i) any Affiliate of Buyer or (ii) any lender of Buyer, as collateral security for indebtedness due and owing by the Buyer or the Company to such lender.

13.3 Amendment and Waiver. This Agreement may only be amended by an instrument in writing signed by the Buyer and each Seller. No breach of any provision hereof shall be deemed waived unless expressly waived in writing by the party hereto who may assert such breach. Without limiting the generality or effect of the preceding sentence, no delay in exercising any right under this Agreement shall constitute a waiver of such right, and no waiver of any breach or default shall be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default of the same or any other provision of this Agreement.

13.4 Headings and Captions. The headings and captions contained in this Agreement are included for purposes of convenience only, and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement or any term or provision contained herein.

13.5 Integration, Modification and Waiver. This Agreement, together with the Exhibits, schedules, Schedules and certificates or other instruments and agreements (including the Ancillary Agreements and the Confidentiality Agreement) delivered under or in connection with this Agreement: (i) constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersedes all prior understandings of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and (ii) are not intended to confer, and shall not be construed as conferring, upon any Person other than the parties hereto any rights or remedies hereunder; provided, however, that the Buyer Indemnified Parties and the Seller Indemnified Parties are intended third-party beneficiaries of Article 11. None of the parties is relying upon any statement or representation of the other party except as expressly set forth herein, and each party is relying on its own judgment in connection with the execution of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

13.6 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced under any Law or as a matter of public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties to this Agreement shall use reasonable efforts to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement be consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

13.7 Notices. All notices and other communications required or permitted under this Agreement must be in writing and will be deemed to have been duly given (a) when delivered in

person, (b) when dispatched by electronic facsimile transfer (with a confirmation report that the transmission was successful), (c) one Business Day after having been dispatched by a nationally recognized overnight courier service or (d) five Business Days after being sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, to the appropriate party at the address or facsimile number specified below:

The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur if any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with the terms hereof and that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement or to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions hereof, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at Law or in equity.

13.9 Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to principles of conflicts of law.

13.10 Consent to Jurisdiction; Service of Process; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a) Except for the matters to be decided by the Independent Accounting Firm pursuant to Section 2.4(c), the parties hereto hereby submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Delaware or the courts of the United States located in Delaware in respect of the interpretation and enforcement of the provisions of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements and hereby waive, and agree not to assert, any defense in any action, suit or proceeding for the interpretation or enforcement of this Agreement and any Ancillary Agreement, that they are not subject thereto or that such action, suit or proceeding may not be brought or is not maintainable in such courts or that this Agreement may not be enforced in or by such courts or that their property is exempt or immune from execution, that the suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum, or that the venue of the suit, action or proceeding is improper. Service of process with respect thereto may be made upon Buyer or Sellers by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to such party at its address as provided in Section 13.7.

(b) EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER ANCILLARY AGREEMENTS IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES AND, THEREFORE, EACH SUCH PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LEGAL ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER ANCILLARY AGREEMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (I) NO REPRESENTATIVE OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER IN THE EVENT OF A LEGAL ACTION, (II) SUCH PARTY HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER, (III) SUCH PARTY MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY, AND (IV) SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 13.10(b).

13.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed to be an original and all of which, when taken together, will be deemed to constitute one and the same agreement. Any party to this Agreement may deliver an executed counterpart hereof and of any of the Ancillary Agreements by facsimile transmission or electronic mail (as a portable document format (PDF) file) to another party hereto or thereto and any such delivery shall have the same force and effect as the delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Agreement or such Ancillary Agreement (as applicable). Minor variations in the form of the signature page, including footers from earlier versions of this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement or any such other document, shall be disregarded in determining the party’s intent or the effectiveness of such signature.

13.12 No Third Party Beneficiaries. Except as provided in Section 7.8 and Article 11, this Agreement is for the sole benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person or entity any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.

13.13 Schedules. The inclusion of an item in any Schedule to this Agreement as an exception to a representation or warranty shall not be deemed an admission that such item represents a material exception or material fact, event or circumstance or that such item has had or would have a Company Material Adverse Effect. The information contained in any Schedule is disclosed solely for the purposes of this Agreement and any descriptions or terms of agreements and documents in the Schedules are summaries only and are qualified in their entirety by the specific terms of such agreements and documents. No disclosure in the Schedules relating to any possible breach or violation of any agreement or Law shall be construed as an admission or indication that any such breach or violation exists and has actually occurred. Where the representations and warranties in this Agreement contain specific dollar thresholds,

the items, contracts and other matters listed in response thereto may include items, contracts and other matters that are below such dollar thresholds. Any disclosure set forth in one section of a Schedule shall apply to the representations and warranties contained in the Section of this Agreement to which it corresponds in number and any representation and warranty to which it is expressly referred by cross reference and any other representation or warranty, to the extent it is reasonably apparent on the face of the Schedules that such disclosure is intended to qualify such representation or warranty.

13.14 Representation of Counsel. Each of the parties hereto hereby acknowledge that they have been represented by and have relied upon counsel of their own choosing in the negotiation and preparation of this Agreement, and that they have read this Agreement, have had its contents fully explained to them by such counsel, and are fully aware of and understand all of its terms and the legal consequences thereof.

FORM OF LOCK-UP LETTER AGREEMENT

[ ], 2013

Hi-Crush Partners LP

▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇

▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇

Ladies and Gentlemen:
