2.3            Net Cash Adjustment and Net Working Capital Adjustment.

(a)                                 The Company shall deliver the Closing Financial Certificate to Purchaser not later than four (4) business days prior to the Closing Date. Following the delivery of the Closing Financial Certificate and until two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Purchaser shall have a reasonable opportunity to review and discuss with Seller the Closing Certificate.  Seller will consider Purchaser’s comments in good faith and shall have the right, but not the obligation, to adjust the Closing Certificate as a result of such discussions.

(b)                                 Within ninety (90) days after the Closing, Purchaser  shall prepare and deliver to Seller a written notice (the “Purchaser Adjustment Notice”) setting forth Purchaser’s calculation of the Company Closing Cash, Company Closing Debt and Company Closing Net Working Capital (the “Purchase Price Calculations”), and the amount by which the Company Closing Cash, Company Closing Debt and Company Closing Net Working Capital as calculated by Purchaser is greater or less than the Company Closing Cash, Company Closing Debt and Company Closing Net Working Capital as set forth in the Closing Financial Certificate, in each case together with supporting documentation, information and calculations. Any matters not expressly set forth in the Notice of Objections shall be deemed to have been accepted by Seller. If, for any reason, Seller fails to deliver the Notice of Objection within the time period required by Section 2.3(c), the amounts set forth in the Purchase Price Calculations delivered by Purchaser to Seller shall be considered for all purposes of this Agreement as being the Final Closing Cash, Final Closing Debt and Final Net Working Capital.

(e)                                  If, after the fifteen (15) business day period set forth in Section 2.3(d), Purchaser and Seller cannot resolve any matter set forth in the Notice of Objection, then Purchaser and Seller shall engage a nationally recognized auditing firm acceptable to both Purchaser and Seller, which firm shall, to the maximum extent reasonably

17

practicable, be independent with respect to Purchaser and Seller (the “Reviewing Accountant”) to review only the matters in the Notice of Objection (including the supporting documentation, information and calculations) that are still disputed by Purchaser and Seller and the Purchase Price Calculations to the extent relevant thereto.  After such review and a review of Seller’s relevant books and records, the Reviewing Accountant shall promptly (and in any event within sixty (60) days following its engagement) determine the resolution of such remaining disputed matters in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and shall set forth such determination in reasonable detail in a written notice and deliver such notice to both parties, which determination shall be final and binding on the parties hereto (except in the case of fraud or manifest error). The Reviewing Accountant’s calculation of the Company Closing Cash, Company Closing Debt and Company Closing Net Working Capital shall be, with respect to any specific discrepancy or disagreement, no greater than the higher amount calculated by Purchaser or Seller, as the case may be, and no lower than the lower amount calculated by Purchaser or Seller, as the case may be  (it being understood that the calculations of the Company Closing Cash, Company Closing Debt and Company Closing Net Working Capital set forth in the Purchaser Adjustment Notice and the Notice of Objection may not thereafter be varied by Purchaser or Seller, as applicable, in the dispute resolution process involving the Reviewing Accountant).  The Reviewing Accountant’s calculation of the Company Closing Cash, Company Closing Debt and Company Closing Net Working Capital shall be shall be considered for all purposes of this Agreement as being the Final Closing Cash, Final Closing Debt and Final Net Working Capital.  The fees, costs and expenses of the Reviewing Accountant shall be borne by Purchaser, on the one hand, and by Seller, on the other, based upon the percentage which the portion of the contested amounts not awarded to each party bears to the total amounts contested by such party.

(f)                                   The “Final Balance” means the sum of the following:

(i)                                     if the Final Net Cash Shortfall or the Final Net Cash Surplus, as applicable, is less than the Closing Net Cash Shortfall or Closing Net Cash Surplus, as applicable, such difference (expressed as a negative number);

(ii)                                  if the Final Net Cash Shortfall or Final Net Cash Surplus, as applicable, is greater than the Closing Net Cash Shortfall or Closing Net Cash Surplus, as applicable, such difference (expressed as a positive number);

(iii)                               if the Final Net Working Capital Shortfall or the Final Net Working Capital Surplus, as applicable, is less than the Closing Net Working Capital Shortfall or Closing Net Working Capital Surplus, as applicable, such difference (expressed as a negative number); and

(iv)                              if the Final Net Working Capital Shortfall or Final Net Working Capital Surplus, as applicable, is greater than the Closing Net Working Capital Shortfall or Closing Net Working Capital Surplus, as applicable, such difference (expressed as a positive number).

(g)                                  If the Final Balance is a negative number (the “Final Negative Amount”), then Seller shall pay to Purchaser without any dispute by Seller, the full amount of the Final Negative Amount within two (2) Business Days from when the Final Balance is

18

determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.3.  If the Final Balance is a positive number (the “Final Positive Amount”), then Purchaser shall pay to Seller the Final Positive Amount within two (2) Business Days from when the Final Balance is determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.3. If either fails to pay in a timely manner the amounts due pursuant to this Section 2.3(g), that party shall pay interest on such amounts at the prime rate of Bank of America, N.A. in effect from time to time from the date such payment was required to be made hereunder. For purposes of the calculations in Section 2.3(f), in the case of comparing two negative numbers, “less than” shall result in a larger negative number.

(h)                                 For clarity, the process set forth in this Section 2.3 shall be the exclusive remedy of Purchaser for disputes related to calculation of the Company Closing Cash, Company Closing Debt, Company Closing Net Working Capital, the Closing Financial Certificate, the Purchaser Adjustment Notice, the Notice of Objection and any amounts set forth therein, except in cases of fraud.

2.4            Withholding Rights.  Purchaser shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the amounts otherwise payable pursuant this Agreement such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under the Code and the treasury regulations promulgated thereunder, or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax law.  To the extent that amounts are so deducted and withheld, and timely paid over to the appropriate Government Authority, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

2.5            Contingent Consideration.

(b)                                 Purchaser and Seller agree to treat (and cause their respective affiliates to treat) any Contingent Consideration paid to Seller as an adjustment to the Total Share Purchase Consideration paid by Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement for all Tax purposes.

(a)           At the Closing, assuming the Financing is funded in accordance with the Commitment Letters, Purchaser shall have sufficient cash and other sources of immediately available funds to pay the Total Share Purchase Consideration and all fees and expenses in connection with the Transactions.

(b)           Purchaser has delivered to Seller a true, accurate and complete copy of (i) an executed debt commitment letter, dated as of the date of this Agreement, by and among Purchaser and the Lenders party thereto, including all exhibits, schedules, annexes and attachments thereto (as amended, restated, replaced, substituted, supplemented, waived or otherwise modified in accordance with Section 7.9(b) or, in the case of an Alternative Financing, in accordance with Section 7.9(c), the “Debt Commitment Letter”), pursuant to which, and subject to the terms and conditions of which, the Lenders party thereto have committed to lend the amounts set forth therein for the purpose of funding the Share Purchase and the other Transactions (such committed debt financing, the “Debt Financing”), and (ii) an executed equity commitment letter, dated as of the date of this Agreement, by and among Purchaser and Sponsors, including all exhibits, schedules, annexes and attachments thereto (as amended, restated, replaced, substituted, supplemented, waived or otherwise modified in accordance with Section 7.9(b), (the “Equity Commitment Letter” and, together with the Debt Commitment Letter, the “Commitment Letters”), pursuant to which, and subject to the terms and conditions of which, each Sponsor has committed to provide the amounts set forth therein for the purpose of funding the Share Purchase (such committed equity financing, the “Equity Financing” and, together with the Debt Financing, the “Financing”).

(c)           As of the date of this Agreement, (i) the Commitment Letters are in full force and effect and have not been withdrawn, rescinded or terminated, or otherwise amended or modified in any respect and (ii) each of the Commitment Letters, in the form so delivered, constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Purchaser, and, to the knowledge of Purchaser, the other parties thereto, enforceable against it or them, as the case may be, in accordance with its terms except as may be affected by bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and other similar Laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally, and general equitable principles, whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at Law.  Except for the fee letter with respect to fees and related arrangements with respect to the Debt Financing (the “Debt Fee Letter”), of which Purchaser has delivered a true, accurate and complete copy to Seller on or prior to the date of this Agreement (redacted with respect to fees, pricing caps, and other economic terms  that would not affect the amount, availability or conditionality of the Debt Financing), the Limited Guarantee and the Commitment Letters are the only agreements relating to the Financing as of the date of this Agreement.  Except for the Commitment Letters and the Debt Fee Letter, there are no agreements, side letters, or arrangements relating to the Debt Commitment Letter or the Equity Commitment Letter, as applicable, that could affect the amount, availability or conditionality of the Debt Financing or the Equity Financing, as applicable.

(e)           Assuming satisfaction of the conditions in Section 8.1 and Section 8.2, as of the date of this Agreement, Purchaser has no reason to believe that any of the conditions in the Commitment Letters will fail to be satisfied on a timely basis or that the full amounts committed pursuant to the Commitment Letters will not be available to be funded at the Closing.  As of the date of this Agreement, Purchaser has fully paid (or caused to be paid) any and all commitment fees or other fees required by the Commitment Letters to be paid on or before the date of this Agreement.  The only conditions precedent related to the obligations of the Sponsors to fund the full amount of the Equity Financing and the Lenders to fund the full amount of the Debt Financing are expressly set forth in the Equity Commitment Letter and the Debt Commitment Letter and the Debt Fee Letter, respectively.

5.5          Absence of Litigation.  As of the date of this Agreement, there is no material Action pending or, to the knowledge of Purchaser, threatened, against Purchaser, any subsidiary of Purchaser, or any property or asset of Purchaser or any subsidiary of Purchaser, before any Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction that is reasonably likely to prevent or delay the consummation of the Share Purchase or any other Transactions or otherwise prevent or delay Purchaser from performing its material obligations under this Agreement.  As of the date of this Agreement, neither Purchaser nor any subsidiary of Purchaser nor any property or asset of Purchaser or any subsidiary of Purchaser is subject to any material continuing order of, consent decree, settlement agreement or similar written agreement with, or, to the knowledge of Purchaser, continuing investigation by, any Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction, or any order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award of any Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction that is reasonably likely to prevent consummation of the Share Purchase or any other Transactions or otherwise prevent Purchaser from performing its material obligations under this Agreement.

5.7          Securities Act.  Purchaser is acquiring the Company Shares solely for the purpose of investment and not with a view to, or for sale in

50

connection with, any distribution thereof.  Purchaser acknowledges that the Company Shares are not registered under the Securities Act, any applicable state securities Laws or any applicable foreign securities Laws, and that such Company Shares may not be transferred or sold except pursuant to the registration provisions of the Securities Act or applicable foreign securities Laws or pursuant to an applicable exemption therefrom and pursuant to applicable state securities Laws.  Purchaser (either alone or together with its advisors) has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial and business matters so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in the Company Shares and is capable of bearing the economic risks of such investment.

(f)            From and after the Closing Date, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, Purchaser shall hold and shall cause its subsidiaries (including the Company and Company Subsidiaries) to hold in strict confidence and not to disclose, release or use without the prior written consent of Seller, any and all confidential and proprietary information related to the businesses of Seller (other than the businesses of the Company and Company Subsidiaries); provided, that Purchaser may disclose, or may permit disclosure of, such information (i) to its Representatives who have a need to know such information and are informed of their obligation to hold such information confidential to the same extent as is applicable to Purchaser and in respect of whose failure to comply with such obligations Purchaser will be responsible, (ii) if Purchaser, its subsidiaries or their respective Representatives are required to disclose any such information pursuant to applicable Law or pursuant to the applicable rules and regulations of any national securities exchange applicable to listed companies, or (iii) in connection with the enforcement of any right or remedy relating to this Agreement or the Transactions.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, in the event that any demand or request for disclosure of such confidential and proprietary information is made pursuant to clause (ii) above, Purchaser shall to the extent practicable and permissible promptly notify Seller of the existence of such request or demand and shall provide Seller a reasonable opportunity to seek an appropriate protective order or other remedy, and in the event such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, Purchaser may disclose such confidential and proprietary information without liability hereunder, but shall furnish only that portion of such confidential and proprietary information that Purchaser is advised by legal counsel it is legally required to disclose and shall exercise reasonable efforts, at its sole cost and expense, to preserve the confidentiality of such information.

7.3            Employee Benefits Matters.

(a)           If so directed by Purchaser in writing at least five (5) business days prior to the Closing Date, the Company’s board of directors will adopt (and will cause any other sponsor of the applicable Company Benefit Plan to adopt), at least two (2) business days prior to the Closing Date, resolutions terminating any and all Company Benefit Plans intended to qualify as a qualified cash or deferred arrangement under Section 401(k) of the Code, effective no later than the day immediately preceding the date the Company becomes a member of the same controlled group of corporations (as defined in Section 414(b) of the Code) as Purchaser.  The form and substance of such resolutions shall be subject to the reasonable approval of Purchaser, and the Company shall provide Purchaser evidence that such resolutions have been adopted by the board of directors of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries or any other applicable Company Benefit Plan sponsor, as applicable.  The Company shall take such other actions in furtherance of terminating any such 401(k) plans as Purchaser may reasonably request.

(b)           If so directed by Purchaser in writing at least five (5) business days prior to the Closing Date, and provided that the Company s legally entitled to act unilaterally, the Company shall notify (or coordinate with any other applicable parties to notify) any Third Party involved in the administration or operation of each applicable Company Benefit Plan set forth on Schedule 7.3(b) of the Disclosure Schedule Plan) of its intent to terminate any Continuing Employees’ participation in such Company Benefit Plan.  Such termination shall occur as soon as administratively practicable subject to any contractual obligations of the Company with respect to such Company Benefit Plan.

(c)           During the one (1)-year period immediately following the Closing Date, Purchaser shall, or shall cause the Company and/or their respective subsidiaries to provide

57

the Continuing Employees with substantially comparable (i) base salary and target annual bonus opportunities as was provided to such Continuing Employee prior to the Closing and (ii) with severance benefits that are no less favorable than the severance benefits to which such Continuing Employee would have been entitled with respect to such termination under the Company Benefit Plans that are severance policies of Seller, the Company and the Company Subsidiaries or that are employment agreements covering Company Employees as in effect immediately prior to the Closing Date, which Company Benefit Plans are set forth on Section 7.3(c)(ii) of the Disclosure Schedule and have been provided to Purchaser prior to the date of this Agreement, provided that this undertaking shall not obligate Purchaser to continue the employment of such Continuing Employees for any period following the Closing, and such Continuing Employees may be terminated by Purchaser at any time (except to the extent otherwise restricted by Law and subject to any Company Benefit Plans that are contractual arrangements between the Company and any individual employee, as in effect on the date hereof and as set forth on Section 7.3(c)(ii) of the Disclosure Schedule and have been provided to Purchaser prior to the date of this Agreement).  In addition, Purchaser will be responsible for paying the Continuing Employees the 2017 bonus following year-end in the ordinary course and in amounts consistent with what is accrued immediately prior to Closing and incurred between the Closing Date and year-end.

(d)           Through December 31st of the year in which the Closing occurs, Purchaser shall, or shall cause the Company and/or their respective subsidiaries to provide the Continuing Employees with the types and levels of employee benefits (excluding cash and equity-based long-term incentive opportunities) that are, in the aggregate, substantially comparable to the types and levels of employee benefits (excluding cash and equity-based long-term incentive opportunities) provided to such Continuing Employees immediately prior to the Closing Date (such benefits to be provided pursuant to the “Purchaser Plans,” which for the avoidance of doubt may include the Company Benefit Plans, to the extent such Company Benefit Plans are assumed by Purchaser).

(e)           For all purposes of the Purchaser Plans, including vesting, eligibility to participate, vacation accrual and levels of benefits (but not benefit accruals under any defined benefit plan or frozen benefit plan of Purchaser or vesting under any equity incentive plan) under any Purchaser Plan, Purchaser will credit each Continuing Employee with his or her years of service with the Company before the Closing, to the same extent as such Continuing Employee was entitled, before the Closing, to credit for such service under any comparable Company Benefit Plan in which such Continuing Employee participated or was eligible to participate immediately prior to the Closing; provided that the foregoing will not apply to the extent that its application would result in any duplication of benefits with respect to the same period of service.  In addition, Purchaser will use commercially reasonable efforts, subject in each case to receipt of any required consent of the applicable Purchaser Plan provider, to cause (i) each Continuing Employee to be immediately eligible to participate, without any waiting time, in any and all Purchaser Plans, (ii) for purposes of each Purchaser Plan providing medical, dental, pharmaceutical and/or vision benefits to any Continuing Employee, all pre-existing condition exclusions and actively-at-work requirements of such Purchaser Plan to be waived for such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents, to the extent such conditions were inapplicable or waived under the comparable Company Benefit Plans in which such Continuing Employee participated immediately prior to the Closing, and (iii) for the plan year in which the

58

Closing occurs, the crediting of each Continuing Employee with any co-payments and deductibles paid prior to the Closing in satisfying any applicable deductible or out-of-pocket requirements under any Purchaser Plan.

7.4          Notification of Certain Matters.  The Company shall give prompt notice to Purchaser in writing of:  (i) any representation or warranty made by the Company contained in this Agreement becoming untrue or inaccurate such that the conditions set forth in Section 8.2(a) would not reasonably be expected to be satisfied; (ii) any failure of the Company to comply with any covenant or agreement to be complied with by it under this Agreement such that the conditions set forth in Section 8.2(a), would not reasonably  be expected to, be satisfied; (iii) the occurrence or existence of any Effect that, individually or in the aggregate, has had, or would reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect.  Seller shall give prompt notice to Purchaser in writing of:  (i) any representation or warranty made by Seller contained in this Agreement becoming untrue or inaccurate such that the conditions set forth in Section 8.2(b) would not reasonably be expected to be satisfied; or (ii) any failure of Seller to comply with any covenant or agreement to be complied with by it under this Agreement such that the conditions set forth in Section 8.2(b) would not reasonably be expected to be satisfied.  Purchaser shall give prompt notice to Seller and the Company in writing of:  (i) any representation or warranty made by Purchaser contained in this Agreement becoming untrue or inaccurate such that the conditions set forth in Section 8.3(a) would not reasonably be expected to be satisfied; or (ii) any failure of Purchaser to comply with any covenant or agreement to be complied with by it under this Agreement such that the conditions set forth in Section 8.3(a) would not reasonably be expected to be satisfied.

The Company shall give prompt notice to Purchaser in writing of any Action

59

7.6            Regulatory Approvals; Efforts.

(a)           The parties hereto shall cooperate with each other and use their respective reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all reasonable actions, and to do, or cause to be done, all reasonable things necessary, proper or advisable under any applicable Laws to (i)  consummate and make effective as promptly as practicable the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (ii) cause the fulfillment at the earliest practicable date of all of the conditions to their respective obligations to consummate the Transactions.

(b)           The parties shall provide or cause to be provided (including by their “ultimate parent entities” as that term is defined in the HSR Act or any similar term under any other Antitrust Laws) as promptly as practicable to any Governmental Authority information and documents requested by such Governmental Authority to permit consummation of the Transactions, including (i) filing any notification and report form and related material required under the HSR Act as promptly as practicable, but in no event later than five (5) business days after the date hereof; (ii) filing any notification required under any other Antitrust Law as promptly as practicable, but in no event later than five (5) business days after the date hereof; and (iii) complying with any “second request” for information under the HSR Act and any comparable request under any other Antitrust Law. Purchaser shall, with the Seller’s and the Company’s reasonable assistance, prepare and file any notification required under any foreign Antitrust Law.

(c)           In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, if and to the extent necessary to avoid any impediment under any Antitrust Law to the Closing on or before the Outside Date, the parties shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain any consent, authorization, approval, order, waiting period expiration or termination, or exemption by, any Governmental Authority, necessary to be obtained prior to the Closing, and to prevent the entry, enactment, or promulgation of any preliminary or permanent injunction or other order, decree, or ruling that would adversely affect the ability of the parties to consummate the Transaction, including by (i) defending through litigation any claim asserted under the Antitrust Laws in any court with respect to the Transactions by any Governmental Authority or other third party; (ii) offering, proposing, negotiating, committing to and effecting, by consent decree, hold separate order, or otherwise, the sale, divestiture or disposition of such businesses, equity holdings, product lines or assets of the Purchaser or the Company and/or their respective affiliates, and (iii)

otherwise taking or committing to take actions that after the Closing Date would limit Purchaser’s freedom of action with respect to one or more businesses, investments, product lines, or assets of Purchaser or the Company and/or their respective affiliates; provided, however, that Purchaser shall not be required to take or agree or commit to take any action, including any agreement to divest or restrict its freedom after the Closing Date with respect to any businesses, product lines, or assets of the Company and its respective affiliates, if such action, individually or in the aggregate, would be reasonably likely to be materially adverse to Purchaser or its affiliates or the Company or its affiliates (with materiality for purposes of this provision measured in relation to the Company); provided, further, that any action contemplated by this Section 7.7(c) shall be conditioned upon the Closing occurring.

(d)                                 Subject to applicable confidentiality restrictions or restrictions required by Law or by any Governmental Authority, Purchaser, on the one hand, and Seller and the Company, on the other, shall each (i) provide to the other parties copies of all filings and submissions made by such Party (and its advisers) and all substantive correspondence between it (or its advisors) and any Governmental Authority or third party, relating to the Transactions; (ii) permit authorized representatives of the other to attend any meeting, communication, or conference with any Governmental Authority related to the Transactions; and (iii) promptly advise each other upon receiving any communication from any Governmental Authority or third party whose consent is required for consummation of any of the Transactions relating to any such consent or approval.  Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the contrary, the parties may, as they deem advisable and necessary, redact or otherwise limit their disclosures to the other parties (A) to remove references concerning the valuation of the Company or other competitively sensitive information, (B) as necessary to comply with contractual arrangements or regulatory requirements, and (C) as necessary to address reasonable attorney-client or other privilege or confidentiality concerns.  The parties may also designate any competitively sensitive materials provided to the other parties under this Section 7.6 as “outside counsel only,” in which case such materials and the information contained therein shall be given only to outside counsel of the recipient and will not be disclosed by such outside counsel to employees, officers, or directors of the recipient without the advance written consent of the party providing such materials.

(e)                                  Notwithstanding anything in this Section 7.6 to the contrary, the parties hereto acknowledge that Purchaser or its designee will control and direct, and Seller and the Company shall cooperate reasonably, subject to applicable Law, with such direction and control, regarding the filings (including where to file), strategies, process, negotiation of settlements (if any), and related proceedings contemplated by this Section 7.6, including for the avoidance of doubt the marketing or sale of any part of the Company’s businesses or assets related thereto; provided, however, that Purchaser or its designee shall consult in advance with Seller and the Company in good faith with regard to such filings, strategies, processes, negotiation of settlements (if any), and related proceedings, and shall take reasonable account of any suggestions, arguments, or other input provided by Seller or the Company in making any decisions regarding the same.

7.9                                                  Financing.

(a)                                 Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Purchaser shall use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary or advisable to arrange and obtain the proceeds of the Financing on the terms and conditions (including, to the extent required, any “flex” provisions) described in the Commitment Letters and the Debt Fee Letter, including using its reasonable best efforts to:

(i)                                     maintain in effect the Commitment Letters;

(ii)                                  negotiate and enter into definitive financing agreements with respect to the Debt Financing on the terms and conditions contained in the Debt Commitment Letter (the “Financing Agreements”);

(iii)                               taking into account the expected timing of the Marketing Period, satisfy, or cause its respective Representatives to satisfy, on a timely basis (or, in each case, if reasonably required to obtain the Financing, seek the waiver of), all conditions to the Financing contemplated by the Commitment Letters, the Debt Fee Letter and Financing Agreements that are within its control (including by paying any commitment fees or other fees or deposits required by the Debt Fee Letter or any other fee letters relating to the Debt Commitment Letter);

(iv)                              comply with its obligations under the Commitment Letters to the extent the failure to comply with such obligations would materially adversely impact the amount or timing of the Financing or the availability of the Financing prior to the Closing Date; and

(v)                                 if available sources of cash are not otherwise available to consummate the Transactions, and provided that the Marketing Period has ended and that all of the conditions set forth in Section 8.1 and Section 8.2 have been satisfied or waived (other than those other conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied on the Closing Date, but subject to

62

such conditions being able to be satisfied on the Closing Date), enforce its rights under the Commitment Letters.

(b)                                 Purchaser shall not agree to or permit any amendment, supplement, termination, modification or replacement of, or grant any waiver of, any condition, remedy or other provision under any Commitment Letter, Debt Fee Letter or Financing Agreement without the prior written consent of Seller if such amendment, supplement, termination, modification, replacement or waiver would (i) reduce the aggregate amount of the Financing from that contemplated by the Commitment Letters delivered as of the date hereof to an amount that, together with available cash or other funds of Purchaser and its subsidiaries, would on the Closing Date be less than the amount required to consummate the Transactions, (ii) impose any new or additional conditions or otherwise expand, amend or modify any of the conditions to the receipt of the Financing in a manner that would reasonably be expected to make the funding of any portion of the Financing (or satisfaction of any condition to obtaining any portion of the Financing) less likely to occur in any material respect or (iii) adversely affect in any material respect the ability of Purchaser to enforce its rights against the other parties to the Debt Commitment Letter or the Financing Agreements (it being understood and agreed that, in any event, Purchaser may, without the consent of Seller, amend the Debt Commitment Letter to add lenders, arrangers, bookrunners, agents, managers or similar entities that have not executed the Debt Commitment Letter as of the date of this Agreement and amend the economic and other arrangements with respect to the existing and additional lenders, arrangers, bookrunners, agents, managers or similar entities).  Purchaser shall promptly notify Seller of any such amendment, supplement, modification, replacement or waiver and deliver a copy thereof to Seller.  Upon the effectiveness of any such amendment, supplement, modification, replacement or waiver, references herein to “Debt Commitment Letter”, “Equity Commitment Letter” and “Commitment Letters”, as applicable, shall include and mean such documents as amended, supplemented, modified, replaced or waived in compliance with this Section 7.9(b), and references to “Debt Financing”, “Equity Financing” and “Financing”, as applicable, shall include and mean the financing contemplated by the applicable Commitment Letter as amended, supplemented, modified, replaced or waived in compliance with this Section 7.9(b), as applicable.

(c)                                  In the event that all or any portion of the Debt Financing becomes unavailable on the terms and conditions (including, to the extent required, any “flex” provisions) in the Debt Commitment Letter or the Debt Commitment Letter shall be withdrawn, terminated, repudiated or rescinded for any reason, Purchaser shall (i) promptly notify Seller and (ii) use its reasonable best efforts to arrange and obtain, as promptly as reasonably practicable following the occurrence of such event, and to negotiate and enter into definitive agreements with respect to, alternative financing from the same or alternative sources (the “Alternative Financing”) on terms and conditions (including, to the extent required, the flex provisions) not less favorable in the aggregate to Purchaser than those contained in the Debt Commitment Letter (after taking into account any flex provisions) and in an amount sufficient, when taken together with other sources of immediately available funds at the Closing, to consummate the Transactions (or replace any unavailable portion of the Debt Financing), and to obtain a new financing commitment letter (including any associated engagement letter and related Debt Fee Letter) with respect to such Alternative Financing (collectively, the “New Commitment Letter”), copies of which (redacted, in the case of any such Debt Fee Letter, with respect to fees, pricing caps and other economic

63

terms  that would not affect the amount, availability or conditionality of the Alternative Financing) shall be promptly provided to Seller. In the event any Alternative Financing is obtained and a New Commitment Letter is entered into in accordance with this Section 7.9(c), references herein to (A) “Debt Commitment Letter” shall be deemed to include and mean any New Commitment Letter to the extent then in effect, (B) “Commitment Letters” shall be deemed to include and mean the Commitment Letters to the extent not superseded by a New Commitment Letter, as the case may be, at the time in question and any New Commitment Letter to the extent then in effect, and (C) “Debt Financing” and “Financing” shall include and mean the financing contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter and Commitment Letters, in each case, as modified pursuant to the preceding clauses (A) and (B).

(d)                                 Purchaser shall furnish Seller substantially final drafts (when available) and true and complete executed (upon execution) copies of the Financing Agreements, in each case, upon Seller’s reasonable request.  Purchaser shall (i) give Seller prompt notice of any default or breach by any party to any of the Commitment Letters or the Financing Agreements of which Purchaser has knowledge, if such default or breach would result in a material delay of or limit the availability of the Financing and (ii) otherwise keep Seller reasonably informed of the status of Purchaser’s efforts to arrange the Financing (or any Alternative Financing). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Purchaser shall give Seller prompt notice (A) of the receipt by Purchaser of any written notice or other written communication, in each case from any Lender with respect to (x) any default under or breach of any provisions of the Commitment Letters or Financing Agreements by Purchaser or any withdrawal, termination, repudiation or rescission of any of the Commitment Letters or Financing Agreements by any Lender party thereto or (y) any material dispute or disagreement between or among parties to any of the Commitment Letters or Financing Agreements with respect to the obligation to fund the Financing or the amount of the Financing to be funded at the Closing Date, in each case, that would make the funding of the Financing (or satisfaction of the conditions to obtaining the Financing) materially less likely to occur or materially delay the availability of the Financing, and (B) if at any time for any reason Purchaser believes that it will not be able to obtain all or any portion of the Financing on the terms and conditions, in the manner or from the sources, contemplated by any of the Commitment Letters or Financing Agreements or will be unable to obtain Alternative Financing.  Purchaser shall promptly provide any information reasonably requested by Seller relating to any circumstance referred to in clause (A) or (B) of the immediately preceding sentence.  Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision hereof, Purchaser shall not be required to provide or disclose any information that Purchaser believes would jeopardize attorney-client privilege of Purchaser or its subsidiaries or that is requested for purposes of litigation.

(e)                                  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, nothing contained in this Section 7.9 shall require, and in no event shall the reasonable best efforts of Purchaser require, Purchaser to (i) seek the Equity Financing from any source other than the Sponsors, or in any amount in excess of that contemplated by, the Equity Commitment Letter or (ii) pay any fees in excess of those contemplated by the Equity Commitment Letter, the Debt Commitment Letter or the Debt Fee Letter (including, to the extent required, the flex provisions contained therein).

64

(f)                                   Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that neither the obtaining of the Financing or any Alternative Financing is a condition to the Closing, and reaffirms its obligation to consummate Transactions irrespective and independently of the availability of the Financing or any Alternative Financing, subject to the applicable conditions set forth in Article 8.

7.10                                           Financing Cooperation.

(a)                                 Seller and the Company shall, and shall cause each Company Subsidiary to, and shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to cause their and each Company Subsidiary’s Representatives to, provide all cooperation, as may be reasonably requested by Purchaser, to assist Purchaser in causing the conditions to the Debt Commitment Letter to be satisfied and as is otherwise reasonably requested by Purchaser in connection with arranging and obtaining the Debt Financing (provided that such requested cooperation is consistent with applicable Law and does not unreasonably interfere with the ongoing operations of Seller, the Company or any Company Subsidiary), including:

7.11                                           Tax Matters.

(a)                                 All state and local transfer, sales, filing, recordation, use, stamp, registration or other similar Taxes and fees resulting from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (“Transfer Taxes”) shall be borne fifty percent (50%) by Seller and fifty percent (50%) by Purchaser.  The parties shall cooperate to pay such Transfer Taxes when due and file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to such Transfer Taxes as required by applicable Law.

(b)                                 In the case of any real property Taxes, personal property Taxes or any similar ad valorem Taxes or other periodic Tax attributable to the Company or the Company Subsidiaries that are in respect of any Taxable period commencing on or before the Closing Date and that ends after the Closing Date (a “Straddle Period” and such a Tax, “Straddle Period Tax”), any such Straddle Period Taxes shall be prorated between Purchaser and Seller on a per diem basis with Seller responsible for such Straddle Period Tax attributable to the period ending on the Closing Date and Purchaser responsible for such Straddle Period Tax attributable to the period commencing after the Closing Date.  Straddle Period Taxes shall be timely paid as provided in Section 7.11(d), and subject to Section 7.11(d), all Tax Returns with respect thereto shall be filed, as provided by applicable Law.  With respect to other Taxes of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries that are in respect of a Straddle Period, the Taxes shall be allocated between the Purchaser and Seller based on a closing of the books at the end of the Closing Date.  The paying party shall be entitled to prompt reimbursement from the non-paying party in accordance with this Section 7.11(b).

(c)                                  Seller shall prepare or cause to be prepared, in a manner consistent with past practice, and timely file or cause to be timely filed all Tax Returns of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries for any taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date (a “Pre-Closing Tax Period” and such Tax Returns, “Pre-Closing Tax Returns”).  With respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Returns required to be filed after the Closing Date (other than consolidated, combined, or unitary Tax Returns), Seller shall provide a final copy of such Tax Return to Purchaser no less than twenty (20) calendar days (or as soon as reasonably practicable in the case of non-income Tax Returns) prior to the due date for filing such Tax Return (taking into account any applicable extensions), along with the Taxes shown as due on such Tax Return (except to the extent such Taxes were either (i) included as a liability in the calculation of Company Closing

68

Net Working Capital or (ii) remitted to Purchaser in accordance with its indemnification rights set forth in Section 10.2 of this Agreement), and Purchaser shall thereafter cause the Company or the Company Subsidiaries, as the case may be, to execute and timely file such Tax Returns and shall timely remit the Taxes shown as due on such Pre-Closing Tax Return.  Purchaser shall not amend, or cause or permit the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries to amend, any Pre-Closing Tax Return of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries without the prior written consent of Seller (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).  With respect to taxes for which Seller is responsible pursuant to this Section 7.11(c), all refunds or credits of such taxes, as well as all refunds or credits attributable to Transaction Tax Deductions, received (or realized by way of a reduction of taxes otherwise payable) by Purchaser or any of its affiliates (including, after the Closing, the Company and the Company Subsidiaries) shall be for the account of Seller and shall promptly be paid by Purchaser to Seller (net of any Taxes in respect of the receipt or accrual of such refund or credit).

(d)                                 Purchaser shall prepare or cause to be prepared any Tax Returns of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries for a Straddle Period (“Straddle Period Tax Returns”) and shall provide copies of such Tax Returns to Seller no less than twenty (20) calendar days (or as soon as reasonably practicable in the case of non-income Tax Returns) prior to the due date for filing such Tax Returns (taking into account any applicable extensions).  Seller shall have the right to review and comment on such Straddle Period Tax Returns, and Purchaser shall not unreasonably refuse to reflect in such Tax Returns any comments requested by Seller with respect to such Tax Returns.  Purchaser shall not file such Tax Returns without the prior written consent of Seller, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however, that in no event shall Purchaser be prevented from timely filing any such Tax Return (taking into account any applicable extensions).   Seller shall remit to Purchaser the Taxes shown as due on such Tax Returns that are allocable to Seller (as determined in accordance with Section 7.11(b)) (except to the extent such Taxes were either (i) included as a liability in the calculation of Company Closing Net Working Capital or (ii) remitted to Purchaser in accordance with its indemnification rights set forth in Section 10.2  of this Agreement).  Purchaser shall thereafter cause the Company and the Company Subsidiaries to execute and timely file such Straddle Period Tax Returns and shall timely remit the Taxes shown as due on such Straddle Period Tax Returns.  Purchaser shall not amend, or cause or permit the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries to amend, any Straddle Period Tax Returns without the prior written consent of Seller (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(e)                                  Purchaser and Seller shall each promptly notify the other in writing upon the receipt of notice from any Tax Authority of any pending or threatened audit or administrative or judicial proceeding related to taxes (a “Tax Proceeding”) of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries for any Pre-Closing Tax Period or any Straddle Period.  Seller shall have the sole right to control any Tax Proceeding with respect to the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries for any Pre-Closing Tax Period; provided, however, that Seller (1) shall keep Purchaser reasonably informed with respect to any such Tax Proceeding that relates solely to the Company and the Company Subsidiaries and (2) will not settle, compromise or abandon any such Tax Proceeding without obtaining Purchaser’s prior written consent (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), if such settlement, compromise or abandonment would have a material adverse impact on or otherwise bind the Purchaser or any of

69

its affiliates in a taxable period ending after the Closing Date.  Purchaser shall have the right to control any Tax Proceeding with respect to the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries for any Straddle Period; provided, however, Purchaser (1) shall keep Seller reasonably informed with respect to any such Tax Proceeding, (2) shall consult with Seller before taking any significant action in connection with such Tax Proceeding, (3) shall permit Seller to participate, at Seller’s expense, in the conduct of such Tax Proceeding, and (4) shall not settle, compromise or abandon any such Tax Proceeding without obtaining Seller’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(f)                                   To the extent relevant to the Company, each party shall (i) provide the other with such assistance as may reasonably be required in connection with the preparation of any Tax Return and the conduct of any Tax Proceeding and (ii) retain for the longer of the applicable statute of limitations or at least six years following the Closing Date and provide the other with all records or other information that may be relevant to the preparation of any Tax Returns or the conduct of any Tax Proceeding.

(g)                                  No elections will be made under Section 338(g) or Section 338(h)(10) of the Code (or any corresponding or similar provision of state or local law) with respect to the Share Purchase.  Neither the Company nor any Company Subsidiary will make any other elections on or after the Closing Date that would be effective for any Pre-Closing Period.

(h)                                 On or before the Closing Date, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser a duly executed certificate of non-foreign status, dated as of the Closing Date, substantially in the form of the sample certification set forth in Treasury Regulation Section 1.1445-2(b)(2)(iv)(B).

(i)                                     All Tax sharing, allocation, or similar agreements or arrangements in effect prior to the Closing Date (other than this Agreement, any such agreement solely among the Company and the Company Subsidiaries and any indemnification provisions for Taxes contained in credit agreements, leases or other commercial agreements the primary purposes of which do not relate to Taxes), and all liabilities and obligations in connection thereto, between Seller or any of its affiliates (other than the Company and the Company Subsidiaries), on the one hand, and the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, on the other hand, shall cease and terminate as of the Closing Date as to all past, present and future periods.  After the Closing Date, no party shall have any rights or obligations under any such agreements.

7.12                                           Post-Closing Access to Books and Records.

(a)                                 After the Closing, for a period of seven (7) years after the Closing Date, upon receipt of reasonable prior notice, each party agrees to provide, or cause to be provided, to each other, as soon as reasonably practicable after written request therefor and at the requesting party’s sole expense, reasonable access during normal business hours, to the other party’s employees (without substantial disruption of employment) and to any books, records, documents, instruments, accounts, correspondence, writings, evidences of title and other papers relating to the conduct of the businesses of the Company and Company Subsidiaries on or before the Closing Date (the “Books and Records”), to the extent reasonably available and in the possession or under the control of the other party that the requesting party reasonably needs (i) to

70

comply with reporting, disclosure, filing or other requirements imposed on the requesting party (including under applicable securities Laws) by a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the requesting party, (ii) for use in any other judicial, regulatory, administrative or other proceeding, or in order to satisfy Tax, audit, accounting, claims, regulatory, litigation or other similar requirements; provided, that, if Seller or any of its subsidiaries, on the one hand, and Purchaser or any of its affiliates (including the Company and the Company Subsidiaries post-Closing), on the other hand, are adverse parties in a litigation, nothing herein shall require either party to disclose any information within the scope, or related to the subject matter, of such litigation (iii) in connection with the filing of any Tax Return or election or any amended return or claim for refund, determining a liability for Taxes or a right to a refund of Taxes or any Tax audit or other Tax Proceeding, (iv) to comply with its obligations under this Agreement or (v) in connection with any other matter requiring access to any such employees, books, records, documents, files and correspondence of the other party, solely to the extent necessary for Purchaser’s operation of the businesses of the Company and Company Subsidiaries after Closing or Seller’s operation of its other businesses, as the case may be; provided, however, that no party shall be required to provide access to or disclose information where such access or disclosure would violate any Law or agreement, or waive any attorney-client or other similar privilege, and each party may redact information regarding itself or its subsidiaries or otherwise not relating to businesses of the Company and Company Subsidiaries, and, in the event such provision of information could reasonably be expected to violate any Law or agreement or waive any attorney-client or other similar privilege, the parties shall take all reasonable measures to permit the compliance with such obligations in a manner that avoids any such harm or consequence, provided, further, Purchaser shall have no obligations pursuant to this Section 7.12 following a sale by Purchaser of its ownership interest in the Company Shares (provided Purchaser has exercised commercially reasonable efforts to cause the buyer of such Company Shares to assume such obligations).

(b)                                 Any information owned by a party that is provided to a requesting party pursuant to this Section 7.12 shall be deemed to remain the property of the providing party.  Unless specifically set forth herein, nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as granting or conferring rights of license or otherwise in any such information.

7.13                                           Insurance.  Purchaser acknowledges that the policies and insurance coverage maintained by Seller for the benefit of the businesses of the Company and Company Subsidiaries are part of the corporate insurance program maintained by Seller, and such coverage will not be available or transferred to Purchaser, except as provided for in the Services Agreement.  From and after the Closing Date, the Company and Company Subsidiaries shall cease to be insured by Seller’s corporate insurance policies or by any of its self-insured programs; provided, however that to the extent permitted under the applicable insurance programs (for clarity, excluding any self-insurance programs), Purchaser shall continue to be insured under such insurance programs for any claims related to pre-Closing occurrences and may request that Seller make claims under such policies and programs with respect to losses occurring (whether known or unknown) before the Closing Date to the extent insurance programs in respect of such claims may be available, and Seller shall take such actions as may be reasonably requested by Purchaser in connection with the tendering of such claims to the applicable insurers under such insurance programs and shall provide Purchaser with the net proceeds they realize with respect to such claims; provided, further, that Purchaser agrees to

71

reimburse upon the request of Seller any deductibles under the insurance policies and programs resulting directly from such claims; provided, further, that in the event that otherwise insured losses under a particular insurance program attributable to the aforementioned claims by Purchaser and attributable to other claims by Seller and its subsidiaries exceed the coverage limit under such insurance program, then Purchaser and Seller shall each be responsible for any uncovered losses on a pro rata basis (according to the relative amounts of otherwise insured losses).  Seller may, to be effective at the Closing, amend any such corporate insurance policies in the manner it deems appropriate to give effect to this Section 7.13; provided that neither Seller nor any of its affiliates may take any action that would reduce, modify or eliminate any coverage, terms and conditions or policy limits to the detriment of the Company under any insurance program (for clarity, excluding any self-insurance program) presently available to the Company for any claims related to pre-Closing occurrences.  From and after the Closing, Purchaser shall be responsible for, and Seller shall reasonably cooperate with Purchaser in, securing all insurance it considers appropriate for its operation of the businesses of the Company and Company Subsidiaries, except as otherwise provided in the Services Agreement.   Purchaser covenants and agrees not to seek to assert or to exercise any rights or claims of the businesses of the Company and Company Subsidiaries under or in respect of any past or current corporate insurance policy of Seller for post-Closing occurrences, except as otherwise provided in the Services Agreement.

9.                                      Termination.

9.1                                                  Termination.  This Agreement may be terminated and the Share Purchase and other Transactions may be abandoned at any time prior to the Closing Date:

(a)                                 By mutual written consent of Purchaser and Seller; or

(b)                                 By either Purchaser or Seller, if:

(i)                                     the Closing Date shall not have occurred on or before the date that is ninety (90) days following the date hereof (the “Outside Date”); provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 9.1(b)(i) shall not be available to any party whose failure to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement has been the substantial or primary cause of the failure of the Closing Date to occur on or before such date; or,

(ii)                                  any Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction shall have enacted, issued, promulgated, enforced or entered any Order or other Law that (x) makes payment for the Company Shares illegal or otherwise prohibited, or (y) enjoins Purchaser from paying for the Company Shares pursuant to this Agreement, and, in each case, such Order or Law shall have become final and non-appealable;

(c)                                  By Purchaser, if (i) there is an inaccuracy in the Company’s representations herein, or a breach by the Company of its covenants herein, in either case such that the conditions set forth in Section 8.2(a) would not be satisfied or (ii) there is an inaccuracy in Seller’s representations herein, or a breach by Seller of its covenants herein, in either case such that the conditions set forth in Section 8.2(b) would not be satisfied; provided, however, if such breach or inaccuracy is capable of being cured prior to the earlier of (A) the Outside Date and (B) the date that is twenty (20) business days from the date the Company or Seller, as applicable, is notified in writing by Purchaser of such breach, Purchaser may not terminate the Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.1(c) (x) prior to such date if the Company or Seller, as applicable, is taking reasonable efforts to cure such breach or inaccuracy or (y) following such date if such inaccuracy or breach is cured at or prior to such date; provided, further, that Purchaser is not then in breach of this Agreement in a manner that would cause any of the conditions in Section 8.1 and Section 8.3 to not be satisfied;

(d)                                 By Seller, if there is an inaccuracy in Purchaser’s representations herein, or a breach by Purchaser of its covenants herein, in either case such that the conditions set forth in Section 8.3(a) would not be satisfied; provided, however, if such breach or inaccuracy is capable of being cured prior to the earlier of (A) the Outside Date and (B) the date

77

that is twenty (20) business days from the date Purchaser is notified in writing by Seller of such breach, Seller may not terminate the Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.1(d) (x) prior to such date if Purchaser is taking reasonable efforts to cure such breach or inaccuracy and (y) following such date if such inaccuracy or breach is cured at or prior to such date; provided, further, that each of Seller and the Company is not then in breach of this Agreement in a manner that would cause any of the conditions in Section 8.1 and Section 8.2 to not be satisfied; or

(e)                                  By Seller, if (i) the Marketing Period has ended and all of the conditions in Section 8.1 and Section 8.2 have been satisfied or (to the extent permitted by applicable Law) waived as of the date the Closing is required to occur in accordance with Section 2.1 (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied on the Closing Date but which conditions would be capable of being satisfied if the time of Closing were the time of such termination), (ii) Seller has irrevocably confirmed by written notice that if the Equity Financing and Debt Financing are funded, then it would take such actions that are within its control to cause the consummation of the Transactions and the Closing to occur, (iii) Purchaser has failed to consummate the Share Purchase within three (3) business days of the date the Closing should have occurred in accordance with Section 2.1 and (iv) Seller stood ready, willing and able to consummate the Share Purchase and the Closing at all times during such three (3) business day period.

(f)                                   By Purchaser, upon providing notice to Seller of the non-satisfaction of the Disclosure Condition.

9.2                                                  Effect of Termination.  In the event of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1, this Agreement shall forthwith become void, and there shall be no liability on the part of Seller, Purchaser, the Company or their respective officers, directors, stockholders, or affiliates; provided, that (a) Section 7.1 (Confidentiality), Section 7.8 (Public Announcements), Section 7.10(c) (Financing Cooperation) Section 9.3 (Fees), Article 11 (General Provisions) and this Section 9.2 shall remain in full force and effect and survive any termination of this Agreement, and (b) subject to Section 9.3(d), such termination shall not relieve any party from liability for any fraud or Willful and Material Breach of its representations or warranties or covenants hereunder.  A termination of this Agreement shall not cause a termination of the Confidentiality Agreement or any other agreement between the parties.

9.3                                     Fees.

(a)                                 In the event that this Agreement is terminated:

(i)                                     by Seller pursuant to Section 9.1(e); or

(ii)                                  by Purchaser pursuant to Section 9.1(b)(i), and at such ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ could have terminated this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(e) (without giving effect to the three (3) business day grace period therein);

then, in any such event, Purchaser shall pay Seller the Purchaser Termination Fee, which amount shall be payable by wire transfer of immediately available funds, within three (3) business days of the termination to an account designated in writing by Seller.

78

(b)                                 In the event that this Agreement is terminated by Purchaser pursuant to Section 9.1(f), then, Seller shall pay Purchaser the Expense Reimbursement, which amount shall be payable by wire transfer of immediately available funds, within three (3) business days of the termination to an account designated in writing by Purchaser.

(c)                                  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Seller acknowledges and agrees on behalf of itself and its affiliates that the Purchaser Termination Fee is not a penalty, but rather is liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate Seller in the circumstances in which the Purchaser Termination Fee is payable for the efforts, expenses and resources expended and opportunity forgone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, which amount would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision.  Seller acknowledges and hereby agrees that the provisions of this Section 9.3 are an integral part of the Transactions, and that, without such provisions, Purchaser would not have entered into this Agreement.

(d)                                 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, but subject to Section 11.5, each of the parties hereto expressly acknowledges and agrees that Seller’s right to receive payment of the Purchaser Termination Fee plus, if applicable, interest pursuant to this Section 9.3, shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedy (whether based in contract, tort or strict liability, by the enforcement of any assessment, by any legal or equitable proceeding, by virtue of any statute, regulation or applicable Law or otherwise) of Seller, the Company and the Company Subsidiaries and their respective affiliates and any of their respective former, current or future general or limited partners, stockholders, members, managers, directors, officers, employees, agents or affiliates (collectively, the “Seller Related Parties”) against Purchaser and Sponsors and their respective affiliates and any of their respective former, current or future general or limited partners, stockholders, members, managers, directors, trustees, officers, employees, agents or affiliates, or any sources of Financing, or any lead arranger, arranger, agent or Representative of, or to, Purchaser, Purchaser or the Sponsors (the “Purchaser Related Parties”) and any person who pays the Purchaser Termination Fee on Purchaser’s behalf for all any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs, fees, expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees and disbursements), judgments, inquiries and fines suffered in respect of this Agreement (including in respect of any breach, whether or not willful and intentional, of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement or the failure of the Share Purchase or any other Transactions to be consummated), any contract or agreement executed in connection herewith (including with respect to the Commitment Letters and the Limited Guarantee) and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby or the Transactions in such circumstances, and upon payment of the Purchaser Termination Fee to Seller pursuant to this Section 9.3, none of the Purchaser Related Parties shall have any further liability or obligation to any of the Seller Related Parties relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the Transactions and no Seller Related Party shall be entitled to bring or maintain any Action against Purchaser or any other Purchaser Related Party arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, any contract or agreement executed in connection herewith (including with respect to the Commitment Letters and the Limited Guarantee) or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (or the abandonment or termination thereof) or any matters forming the basis for such termination.  For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall Purchaser be required to pay the Purchaser Termination Fee on more than one occasion.  The Lenders and

79

their respective affiliates and any Purchaser Related Party are express third party beneficiaries of the provisions of this Section 9.3(d), may enforce this Section 9.3(d) directly, and this Section 9.3(d) may not be amended, modified or supplemented by the parties hereto without the prior express written consent of the Lenders.

(e)                                  If Purchaser fails to pay in a timely manner the Purchaser Termination Fee due pursuant to Section 9.3(a), and, in order to obtain such payment, Seller makes a claim that results in a judgment for the Purchaser Termination Fee (or a portion thereof) set forth in Section 9.3(a), Purchaser shall pay interest on the Purchaser Termination Fee at the prime rate of Bank of America, N.A. in effect from time to time from the date such payment was required to be made hereunder.

10.                               Indemnification.

10.1                              Survival.

(a)                                 If the Share Purchase is consummated, the representations and warranties of the Company contained in this Agreement, the Disclosure Schedule and the certificate contemplated by Section 8.2(a) shall survive the Closing and remain in full force and effect until 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the 12 month anniversary of the Closing Date; provided, however, that (i) the representations and warranties of the Company contained in the Company Fundamental Representations and in Section 3.6(a) will remain operative and in full force and effect until 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the 36 month anniversary of the Closing Date and (ii) the representations and warranties of the Company set forth in Section 3.15 and Section 3.26 will remain operative and in full force and effect until the period which is thirty (30) days following the end of the applicable statute of limitations.  If the Share Purchase is consummated, the representations and warranties of Seller contained in this Agreement and the certificate contemplated by Section 8.2(b) shall survive the Closing and remain in full force and effect until 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the 12 month anniversary of the Closing Date; provided, however, that the representations and warranties of Seller contained in the Seller Fundamental Representations will remain operative and in full force and effect until 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the 36 month anniversary of the Closing Date.

(b)                                 If the Share Purchase is consummated, the representations and warranties of Purchaser contained in this Agreement and the certificate contemplated by Section 8.3(a) shall survive the Closing and remain in full force and effect until 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the 12 month anniversary of the Closing Date.

(c)                                  If the Share Purchase is consummated, all covenants of the parties (including the covenants set forth in Article 6 and Article 7) shall expire and be of no further force or effect as of 12 months from the Closing, except to the extent such covenants provide that they are to be performed after the Closing.

(d)                                 Notwithstanding the foregoing, no right to indemnification pursuant to this Article 10 in respect of any claim based upon any failure of a representation or warranty or any breach of a covenant that is set forth in a Notice of Claim (as defined below) delivered prior to the expiration of the applicable Claims Period (as defined in Section 10.4) with

80

respect to such representation or warranty or covenant shall be affected by the expiration of such representation or warranty or covenant.

10.2                              Agreement to Indemnify.

(a)                                 Seller shall  indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser and its officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives (each hereinafter referred to individually as an “Purchaser Indemnified Person” and collectively as “Purchaser Indemnified Persons”) from and against any and all liabilities, claims, deficiencies, demands, judgments, damages (including diminution in value), Taxes, interest, fines, penalties, suits, actions, assessments and awards, losses, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, other professionals’ and experts’ fees, costs of investigation and court costs (including such fees and costs incurred in connection with enforcing the provisions of this Article 10)) (hereinafter collectively referred to as “Damages”) arising out of or resulting from the following (the “Seller Indemnifiable Matters”):

(i)                                     any failure of any representation or warranty made by the Company in this Agreement, the Disclosure Schedule or the certificate contemplated by Section 8.2(a) or made by Seller in this Agreement and the certificate contemplated by Section 8.2(b) to be true and correct as of the date of this Agreement (in the case of any such representation or warranty contained in this Agreement or the Disclosure Schedule only) and as of the Closing Date (as though such representation or warranty were made as of the Closing Date, except in the case of representations and warranties which by their terms speak only as of a specific date or dates, in which case such representations and warranties shall be true and correct on and as of such specified date or dates);

(ii)                                  any breach of or default in connection with any of the covenants or agreements made by the Company and Seller in this Agreement to be performed;

(iii)                               any fraud by the Company or Seller under this Agreement; or

(iv)                              any Excluded Liabilities.

(b)                                 Purchaser shall  indemnify and hold harmless Seller and its officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives (each hereinafter referred to individually as a “Seller Indemnified Person” and collectively as “Seller Indemnified Persons”) from and against any and all Damages arising out of or resulting from the following (the “Purchaser Indemnifiable Matters”):

(i)                                     any failure of any representation or warranty made by Purchaser in this Agreement or the certificate contemplated by Section 8.3(a) to be true and correct as of the date of this Agreement (in the case of any such representation or warranty contained in this Agreement only) and as of the Closing Date (as though such representation or warranty were made as of the Closing Date, except in the case of representations and warranties which by their terms speak only as of a specific date or dates, in which case such representations and warranties shall be true and correct on and as of such specified date or dates);

81

(ii)                                  any breach of or default in connection with any of the covenants or agreements made by Purchaser in this Agreement;

(iii)                               any fraud by Purchaser under this Agreement; or

(iv)                              any Assumed Liabilities.

10.3                              Limitations.

(a)                                 Except as otherwise provided in this Section 10.3(a), no Purchaser Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person shall be entitled to indemnification in respect of any claim for indemnification that is made pursuant to Section 10.2(a)(i) or Section 10.2(b)(i) unless and until (i) the amount of Damages that are indemnifiable pursuant to Section 10.2(a)(i) or Section 10.2(b)(i), as applicable, in connection with any individual claim or series of related claims based on a similar set of operative facts is greater than $200,000 (the “De Minimis Threshold”) and once the De Minimis Threshold has been exceeded, the Purchaser Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person, as applicable, shall be indemnified for all Damages therefrom (including an amount equal to the De Minimis Threshold) (the “Non De Minimis Damages”), but subject to any remaining amount of the Deductible and (ii) the aggregate amount of Damages that are indemnifiable pursuant to Section 10.2(a)(i) or Section 10.2(b)(i), as applicable, exceeds $4,000,000 (the “Deductible”) (provided that in the case of each of Section 3.6(a) and Section 3.26 only, the Deductible shall be deemed to be $1,000,000 respectively), and once the Deductible has been reached, the Purchaser Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person shall be indemnified for all Non De Minimis Damages in excess of the Deductible.  None of the De Minimis Threshold, the Deductible, or the Cap shall apply to Damages related to the breach of any Company Fundamental Representations, Seller Fundamental Representations, or any of the representations and warranties contained in Section 3.15.

(b)                                 Except as set forth in Section 10.3(a) and this Section 10.3(b), no Purchaser Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person shall be entitled to indemnification under Section 10.2(a)(i) or Section 10.2(b)(i) for an aggregate amount of Damages exceeding $25 million (the “Cap”) in connection with Damages related to the breach of any of the representations or warranties of Seller, the Company or the Purchaser, respectively.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of Damages attributable to a breach of Section 3.6(a) only, the maximum indemnification liability of Seller will be $50 million (the “Sufficiency Cap”) (it being understood that the Sufficiency Cap is available only with respect to breaches of Section 3.6(a), and that recoveries under Section 10.2(a)(i)  for breaches of all other representations and warranties of Seller and the Company will not count concurrently against the Sufficiency Cap but only against the Cap or the Disclosure Cap, as applicable); provided, further, that for purposes of the determination of whether there was a failure of Section 3.6(a) to be true and correct, breaches with respect to Support Assets shall be disregarded unless they are material in the aggregate.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of Damages attributable to a breach of Section 3.26 only, the maximum indemnification liability of Seller will be $50 million (the “Disclosure Cap”) (it being understood that the Disclosure Cap is available only with respect to breaches of Section 3.26, and that recoveries under Section 10.2(a)(i) for breaches of all other representations and warranties of Seller and the Company will not count concurrently against the Disclosure Cap but only against the Cap or the Sufficiency Cap, as applicable). None of the Cap,

82

the Disclosure Cap or the Sufficiency Cap shall apply to any claim for indemnification with respect to a breach of Company Fundamental Representations, Seller Fundamental Representations or any of the representations and warranties contained in Section 3.15, which shall be capped at the Total Share Purchase Consideration (the “Fundamental Representation Cap”). The parties agree that any liability or indemnification obligation with respect to a breach of Section 10.2(a)(i) (other than a breach of Section 3.6(a) or Section 3.26) shall be payable by Seller as follows: (x) first, up to $2 million in cash, (y) second, up to $23 million as a set off against Purchaser’s obligation to pay, if and when payable, the Contingent Consideration, and (z) third, any remaining liability or indemnification obligation, in cash.  The parties agree that any liability or indemnification obligation with respect to a breach of Section 3.6(a) or Section 3.26 shall be payable by Seller in cash.   For clarity, the maximum indemnification liability of Seller under Section 10.2(a)(i) in all circumstances shall be equal to the Fundamental Representation Cap.

(c)                                  The Purchaser Indemnified Persons and Seller Indemnified Persons shall exercise commercially reasonable efforts (including by seeking to recover for Damages pursuant to existing insurance policies) to mitigate the amount of any Damages after becoming aware of any event that could reasonably be expected to give rise to Damages pursuant to Section 10.2(a)(i)-(ii) or Section 10.2(b)(i)-(ii) (other than for intentional breaches of Section 10.2(a)(ii) or Section 10.2(b)(ii)).  Without limiting the foregoing, Damages shall be calculated net of actual recoveries under existing insurance policies and contractual indemnification or contribution provisions (in each case calculated net of any actual collection costs and reserves, deductibles, premium adjustments and retrospectively rated premiums); provided, that, in the event that Purchaser Indemnified Persons or Seller Indemnified Persons recover from Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, for any particular Damages and thereafter recover for the same Damages pursuant to any existing insurance policies and/or contractual indemnification or contribution provisions, then the amount recovered pursuant to such existing insurance policies and/or contractual indemnification or contribution provisions (up to the amount first recovered from Seller or Purchaser, as applicable) shall be paid to Seller by Purchaser or to Purchaser by Seller, as applicable.

(d)                                 Damages pursuant to Section 10.2(a)(i)-(ii) or Section 10.2(b)(i)-(ii) (other than for intentional breaches of Section 10.2(a)(ii) or Section 10.2(b)(ii)) shall include only actual losses and out-of-pocket expenses incurred and shall exclude (i) special, exemplary or punitive Damages, (ii) consequential or indirect damages that were not reasonably foreseeable, unless in each case of (i) and (ii), awarded by an arbitrator or Governmental Authority to a Third Party and paid to such Third Party by a Purchaser Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person, (iii) lost opportunities and other similar speculative Damages, and (iv) diminution or reduction in value damages premised upon application of a multiplier.  In the event that particular underlying facts constitute a breach of more than one of the representations, warranties or covenants in this Agreement, then to the extent the same indemnifiable Damages result from such multiple breaches, such indemnifiable Damages may not be actually recovered more than one time by any Purchaser Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person, as applicable, without limiting any rights of a party to make claims under multiple provisions hereunder.  If and solely to the extent that an amount of Damages in connection with an Indemnifiable Matter was already taken into account in connection with calculation of the Total

83

Share Purchase Consideration or Final Net Working Capital, the same amount of such Damages may not be recovered under this Article 10.

(e)                                  For the purposes of the determination of (i) whether there was a failure of any representation or warranty to be true and correct as of any particular date and (ii) the existence or amount of any Damages in respect of any such failure, any materiality or Material Adverse Effect standard or qualification contained in or otherwise applicable to such representation or warranty shall be disregarded (other than in instances where the word “Material” is used as part of the capitalized defined terms “Company Material Contracts” and “Material Adverse Effect”); provided, however, that in the case of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.17(a)(i), such standard or qualification shall not be disregarded for purposes of the foregoing clause (i). For the purposes of the determination of (i) whether there was a failure of any representation or warranty contained in Section 3.15 to be true and correct as of any particular date and (ii) the existence or amount of any Damages in respect of any such failure of such representation in Section 3.15, exceptions to any such representation or warranty contained in the Disclosure Schedule shall be disregarded.

(f)                                   To the extent a Purchaser Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person actually realizes any net Tax Benefits or incurs a net Tax Cost as a result of the payment or incurrence of any Damages or the receipt or accrual of any indemnity payments in respect of such Damages, respectively, the amount of Damages for which indemnification is provided hereunder shall be (i) increased to take account of such net Tax Cost arising from (and that would not have arisen but for) the receipt or accrual of the indemnity payment hereunder (grossed up for such increase) and (ii) reduced to take account of such net Tax Benefits actually realized in cash or applied against cash Taxes payable arising from (and that would not have arisen but for) the payment or incurrence of any such Damages.  In furtherance of (and without duplication of) clause (ii) above, to the extent that the claim with respect to which an indemnity obligation arises has not given rise to an actual net Tax Benefit in a prior year or in the year in which the indemnity payment is to be made, but gives rise to an actual net Tax Benefit payable with respect to the Purchaser Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person, as applicable, in any of the four tax years following the payment or incurrence of such Damages, the Purchaser Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person, as applicable, shall pay to Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, an amount equal to the net Tax Benefit within twenty (20) business days after such benefit is actually received in cash or is applied against cash Taxes payable if such benefit is actually realized after the indemnity payment is made.  For this purpose, a Purchaser Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person shall be deemed to actually realize a net tax benefit (“Tax Benefit”) or a net Tax Cost (“Tax Cost”), if, and to the extent that, such a Purchaser Indemnified Person’s or Seller Indemnified Person’s actual Liability for Taxes (after giving effect to any alternative minimum or similar Tax), calculated by excluding any Tax items attributed to the payment or incurrence of the Damages or the receipt or accrual of the indemnity payment in respect of such Damages, is reduced by way of a reduction of Taxes paid or increase in a refund of Taxes actually received or applied against other Taxes due or is increased by way of an increase of Taxes paid or reduction in a refund of Taxes or credits applied against Taxes due, respectively, in each case, determined on a “with and without basis”.

(g)                                  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each of Seller and the Company is not making and shall not be construed to have made, and Seller shall

84

not have any liability or indemnification obligation with respect to, any representation or warranty as to the amount or availability of any net operating losses, Tax credits, or other Tax attribute.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Seller shall not have any liability or indemnification obligation (i) for any Taxes of the Company or Company Subsidiaries with respect to any Taxable period (or portion thereof) beginning after the Closing Date (other than (1) Taxes arising from a breach of any of the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.15(e), 3.15(f), or 3.15(g) and (2) Taxes arising as a result of any breach of or default in connection with any of the covenants or agreements made by the Company and Seller in this Agreement to be performed), (ii) for any Taxes of the Company or Company Subsidiaries resulting from any action or transaction outside of the ordinary course of business taken by Purchaser after the Closing on the Closing Date, (iii) the ability of Purchaser, the Company or any of their affiliates to utilize any Tax asset or attribute (e.g., net operating loss carryforward or Tax credit carryforward) in any Taxable period or portion thereof (including any Straddle Period) beginning on or after the Closing Date, (iv) resulting from an amendment of the Company or the Company Subsidiaries’ Tax Returns unless such amendment (A) is the result of a breach or inaccuracy of the representations contained in Section 3.15 or (B) is in connection with a “closing agreement” (within the meaning of Section 7121 of the Code or any other analogous provision of state, local or foreign Law) entered into in connection with a Tax Proceeding relating to any Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period, or (v) for any Taxes to the extent such Taxes were included as a liability in the calculation of Company Closing Net Working Capital.

(h)                                 The right to indemnification or any other remedy based on representations, warranties, covenants and agreements in this Agreement shall not be affected by any investigation conducted at any time, or any knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired) at any time, whether before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the Closing Date, with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of or compliance with, any such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement.  The waiver of any condition based on the accuracy of any representation or warranty, or on the performance of or compliance with any such covenant or agreements, will not affect the right to indemnification or any other remedy based on such representations, warranties, covenants and agreements.

(i)                                     Following the Closing, (i) this Article 10 shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedy for recovery of money Damages by the Purchaser Indemnified Persons and Seller Indemnified Persons for all Seller Indemnifiable Matters and Purchaser Indemnifiable Matters, as applicable, (ii) all applicable statutes of limitations or other claims periods with respect to claims for Seller Indemnifiable Matters and Purchaser Indemnifiable Matters shall be shortened to the applicable claims periods and survival periods expressly set forth herein and (iii) the Purchaser Indemnified Persons and Seller Indemnified Persons irrevocably waive any and all rights they may have to make claims against Seller and Purchaser, as applicable, under statutory and common law, other than claims for fraud, as a result of any Damages and any and all other damages or losses incurred by the Purchaser Indemnified Persons and Seller Indemnified Persons with respect to the Seller Indemnifiable Matters and Purchaser Indemnifiable Matters, as applicable, whether or not in excess of the maximum amounts permitted to be recovered pursuant to this Article 10 (it being understood that nothing in this Section 10.3(i) or elsewhere in this Agreement shall affect the parties’ rights (x) to specific performance or other similar non-monetary equitable remedies with respect to the covenants

85

referred to in this Agreement to be performed after the Closing or (y) pursuant to Section 2.3).  Purchaser and Seller hereby irrevocably waive any right of rescission with respect to the Transactions.

10.4                              Notice of Claims.

(a)                                 As used herein, the term “Claim” means a claim for indemnification of any Purchaser Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person for Damages under this Article 10.  Purchaser or Seller may give notice of a Claim under this Agreement, whether for its own Damages or for Damages incurred by any other Purchaser Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person, as applicable, and Purchaser or Seller shall give written notice of a Claim executed by an officer of Purchaser or Seller, as applicable (a “Notice of Claim”), to Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, after Purchaser or Seller becomes aware of the existence of any actual or potential claim by an Purchaser Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person, as applicable, for indemnification from Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, under this Article 10, arising out of or resulting from (i) any Seller Indemnifiable Matter or Purchaser Indemnifiable Matter or (ii) the assertion, whether orally or in writing, against any Purchaser Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person, as applicable, of a claim, demand or Action brought by a Third Party against any Purchaser Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person, as applicable (in each such case, a “Third Party Claim”) that is based on, arises out of or relates to any Seller Indemnifiable Matter or Purchaser Indemnifiable Matter.

(b)                                 The period during which claims may be initiated (the “Claims Period”) for indemnification for Damages arising out of or resulting from:  (i) failure of any representation or warranty shall commence at the Closing and terminate at the time of expiration of such representation or warranty set forth in Section 10.1; (ii) breach of or default in connection with any of the covenants or agreements to be performed prior to the Closing shall commence at the Closing and terminate at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the 12 month anniversary of the Closing Date; and (iii) fraud, Excluded Liabilities and Assumed Liabilities under this Agreement shall commence at the Closing and terminate at the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations.

(c)                                  Each Notice of Claim given pursuant to this Section 10.4 shall contain the following information:

(i)                                     that a Purchaser Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person has incurred, paid or sustained, or reasonably anticipates that it will incur, pay or sustain, Damages in an aggregate stated amount arising from such Claim (which amount may be the amount of damages claimed by a Third Party in an action brought against any Purchaser Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person, as applicable, based on alleged facts, which if true, would give rise to liability for Damages to such Purchaser Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person, as applicable, under this Article 10); and

(ii)                                  a brief description, in reasonable detail (to the extent reasonably available to Purchaser or Seller, as applicable), of the facts, circumstances or events giving rise to such Damages based on Purchaser’s or Seller’s, as applicable, good faith belief thereof, including (x) the basis for such anticipated liability and the nature of the breach to which

86

such Damages are related, (y) the identity of any Third Party claimant and (z) copies of any formal demand or complaint from any Third Party claimant; and

(iii)                               a description and status of Purchaser’s or Seller’s, as applicable, claims for recovery of such Damages pursuant to its insurance policies

(d)                                 No delay on the part of Purchaser or Seller in giving Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, a Notice of Claim shall relieve Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, from any of its obligations under this Article 10 unless (and then only to the extent that) Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, is materially prejudiced thereby in terms of the amount of Damages for which Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, is obligated to indemnify the Purchaser Indemnified Persons or Seller Indemnified Persons, as applicable.

10.5                                           Defense of Third Party Claims.  Any Third Party Claim shall be subject to the following procedures:

(a)                                 In the event that any Third Party Claim shall be commenced, the Purchaser Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person, as applicable, shall promptly cause written notice of the assertion of such Third Party Claim to be forwarded to the Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, and the Seller or Purchaser will have the right to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim at its sole cost and expense with reputable legal counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Purchaser Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person, as applicable, by delivering written notice of such election to the Purchaser Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person, as applicable, within ten (10) business days after receipt of the Notice of Claim describing such Third Party Claim.  If Seller or Purchaser assumes the defense of the Third Party Claim in accordance with this subsection (a), then:

(i)                                     Seller or Purchaser shall keep the Purchaser Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person, as applicable, informed of all material developments relating to such Third Party Claim.  The Purchaser Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person, as applicable, shall have the right to receive copies of all pleadings, notices and communications with respect to such Third Party Claim to the extent that receipt of such documents does not waive any privilege.

(ii)                                  The Purchaser Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person, as applicable, may retain separate co-counsel and participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim or settlement negotiations with respect to such Third Party Claim at its own cost and expense, and shall be entitled to reasonably consult with Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, regarding the defense of such Third Party Claim or settlement negotiations with respect to such Third Party Claim.

(iii)                               Seller or Purchaser shall not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or compromise of such Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Purchaser Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person, as applicable, unless (A) such judgment, settlement or compromise includes an unconditional release from all liability with respect to the claim in favor of the Purchaser Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person, as applicable, or (B) the sole relief provided in connection with such

87

judgment, settlement or compromise is monetary damages that are paid in full by Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, or any other relief that is enforceable only against Seller or Purchaser, as applicable.

(b)                                 Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller or Purchaser shall not be entitled to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim (unless the Purchaser Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person, as applicable, agrees otherwise in writing) in the event:

(i)                                     the Third Party Claim involves an injunction or other equitable relief;

(ii)                                  Damages sought under such Third Party Claim (together with Damages sought under any other Claims then pending or in dispute) would reasonably be expected to not be covered by Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, therefor under the limitations set forth in Section 10.3(b); or

(iii)                               outside legal counsel to the Purchaser Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person, as applicable, reasonably determines that the legal counsel chosen by Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, has a conflict of interest in representing the interests of the Purchaser Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person, as applicable.

(c)                                  In the event that Seller or Purchaser declines to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim within thirty (30) days of receiving a Notice of Claim, or is not entitled to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim according to subsection (b) above, then the Purchaser Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person, as applicable, will have the right to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim with counsel of its choosing (which reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel shall constitute Damages to which Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, is responsible if the Claim underlying such Third Party Claim is a Claim for which the Purchaser Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person, as applicable, is entitled to indemnification hereunder; provided that Seller or Purchaser shall not be required to pay for more than one such counsel (plus any appropriate local counsel).  If the Purchaser Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person assumes the defense of the Third Party Claim in accordance with this subsection (c), then:

(i)                                     The Purchaser Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person shall keep Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, informed of all material developments relating to such Third Party Claim.  Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, shall have the right to receive copies of all pleadings, notices and communications with respect to such Third Party Claim to the extent that receipt of such documents does not waive any privilege.

(ii)                                  Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, may retain separate co-counsel and participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim or settlement negotiations with respect to such Third Party Claim at its own cost and expense, and shall be entitled to reasonably consult with the Purchaser Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified person, as applicable, with respect to the defense of such Third Party Claim or settlement negotiations with respect to such Third Party Claim.

88

(iii)                               The Purchaser Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person shall not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or compromise of such Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of Seller or Purchaser, as applicable (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed (it being understood that it shall be reasonable to withhold such consent where Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, believes in good faith that there is not an underlying basis for indemnification with respect to such settlement)), unless (1) such judgment, settlement or compromise includes an unconditional release from all liability with respect to the claim in favor of the Purchaser Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person, as applicable, or (2) the Purchaser Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person stipulates in writing that there are no Damages for which it is entitled to indemnification under this Article 10 in connection with such judgment, settlement or compromise.

(d)                                 Purchaser, Seller, the Purchaser Indemnified Person and the Seller Indemnified Person, as applicable, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate (and cause their respective legal counsel to cooperate) in connection with the defense of any Third Party Claim, including by (i) furnishing copies of documents, records or other information reasonably requested by the other party and (ii) providing access to employees whose assistance, testimony or presence is reasonably necessary to assist in the evaluation and defense of such Third Party Claim (provided that any such access shall not unreasonably interfere with the business activities of such party).

10.6                                           Resolution of Notice of Claim.  Each Notice of Claim shall be resolved as follows:

(a)                                 If, within 30 days after a Notice of Claim is received by Seller or Purchaser, Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, does not contest such Notice of Claim in writing to Purchaser or Seller, as applicable, as provided in Section 10.6(b), Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, shall be conclusively deemed to have consented to the recovery by the Purchaser Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person, as applicable, of the full amount of Damages specified in the Notice of Claim in accordance with this Article 10.

(b)                                 If Seller or Purchaser gives Purchaser or Seller, as applicable, written notice contesting all or any portion of a Notice of Claim (a “Contested Claim”) within the 30 day period specified in Section 10.6(a), then, the parties shall attempt in good faith to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of the indemnification claims that comprise the Damages (or the portion of the Damages that are the subject of the Contested Claim).  If Seller and Purchaser should so agree, a memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by both such parties.  In the absence of such a written settlement agreement within 60 days following receipt by Purchaser or Seller of the written notice from Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by Purchaser and Seller, either Seller or Purchaser make seek resolution by binding litigation in accordance with the terms and provisions of Section 10.6(c); provided that Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, shall be conclusively deemed to have consented to the recovery by the Purchaser Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person, as applicable, of the full amount of Damages specified in any portion of a Notice of Claim that is not a Contested Claim.

89

(c)                                  Either Purchaser or Seller may bring suit in the venue set forth in Section 11.6(b) to resolve the Contested Claim. Judgment upon any award rendered by the trial court may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.

(d)                                 Seller shall be entitled to refer to an archival copy of the electronic data room maintained by Seller in connection with the Transactions for purposes of administering Claims and exercising its rights hereunder; provided, that, Seller shall treat confidentially and not use or disclose any nonpublic information from or about the Company and Company Subsidiaries or their respective successors and assigns (if any) to anyone (except to Seller’s affiliates, employees, attorneys, accountants, financial advisors or authorized representatives strictly on a need to know basis for the above-stated purpose, in each case who agree to treat such information confidentially.

10.7                                           Treatment of Indemnification Payments.  Purchaser and Seller agree to treat (and cause their affiliates to treat) any payment received pursuant to this Article 10 as adjustments to the Total Share Purchase Consideration for all tax purposes, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law.

11.                               General Provisions.

11.2              Severability.  If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law, or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the Transactions is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party.  Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith 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 be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

11.3              Entire Agreement; Assignment; No Other Representations or Warranties.  This Agreement, the Services Agreement, and the Confidentiality Agreement constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior and contemporaneous agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, among the parties, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof.  This Agreement shall not be assigned (whether pursuant to a merger, by operation of law or otherwise), except that (a) Purchaser may assign all or any of their rights hereunder to any subsidiary or affiliate of Purchaser so long as Purchaser remains

91

liable for all of the obligations contemplated under this Agreement and (b) Purchaser (and following the Closing Date, the Company) may at any time, and without the consent of any other person or party, unilaterally grant a security interest in, and assign for collateral security purposes, its rights and interests hereunder to the Lenders (or their agent) providing Debt Financing under the Debt Commitment Letter or the definitive documentation with respect thereto.  Except for the representations and warranties contained in Article 3 and Article 4 (and the certificates contemplated by Section 8.2(a)-(b)), Purchaser acknowledges that neither Seller, the Company nor any person on behalf of Seller or the Company makes, and neither Purchaser nor any person on its behalf relies upon, any other express or implied representation or warranty with respect to Seller, the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries or with respect to any other information made available to Purchaser in connection with the Transactions; provided, that, nothing in this sentence only shall relieve Seller’s liability for fraud. In addition to the foregoing, Purchaser hereby acknowledges that neither Seller, the Company nor any of the Company Subsidiaries, nor any of their respective shareholders, directors, officers, employees, affiliates, advisors, agents or representatives, nor any other Person, has made or is making, and neither Purchaser nor any person on its behalf is relying upon, any representation or warranty or has or shall have any liability in connection with the Transactions (whether pursuant to this Agreement, in tort or otherwise, including without limitation on any legal theory asserting fraud or intentional misrepresentation) with respect to estimates, projections, forecasts, business plans or cost-related plans that are forward-looking in nature or other forward-looking information (including the reasonableness of the assumptions underlying such estimates, projections, forecasts, forward-looking information, business plans or cost-related plans), except as may be expressly set forth in Article 3 and Article 4 of this Agreement. Except for the representations and warranties contained in Article 5 (and the certificates contemplated by Section 8.3(b)), Seller and Company acknowledge that Purchaser is not making, and neither Seller, the Company nor any person on their behalf relies upon, any other express or implied representation or warranty with respect to Purchaser or with respect to any other information made available to the Company or Seller in connection with the Transactions; provided, that, nothing in this sentence only shall relieve Purchaser’s liability for fraud or shall apply to the Equity Commitment Letter or Limited Guarantee. The Company and Seller hereby acknowledge that neither the Purchaser nor any of its respective shareholders, directors, officers, employees, affiliates, advisors, agents or representatives, nor any other Person, has made or is making any representation or warranty or has or shall have any liability (whether pursuant to this Agreement, in tort or otherwise, including without limitation on any legal theory asserting fraud  or intentional misrepresentation) with respect to estimates, projections, forecasts, business plans or cost-related plans that are forward-looking in nature or other forward-looking information (including the reasonableness of the assumptions underlying such estimates, projections, forecasts, forward-looking information, business plans or cost-related plans), except as may be expressly set forth in Article 5 of this Agreement; provided, that, nothing in this sentence only shall apply to the Equity Commitment Letter or Limited Guarantee.

11.4              Parties in Interest.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each party hereto, and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other person any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement, other than the provisions of Section 9.3, this Section 11.4, Section 11.5(d), the proviso in Section 11.6(a), the last sentence of Section 11.6(b), Section 11.7 and the final sentence of Section 11.9 are intended to be for the

92

benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, the Lender Related Parties, and the provisions of Section 11.12 are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, the Non-Party Affiliates.

11.5              Specific Performance.

(a)           Subject to Section 11.5(c), parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event 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 of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms hereof, in addition to any other remedy at law or equity, and nothing herein shall be deemed a waiver by any party of any right to injunctive relief or specific performance.  Except as otherwise provided herein, including with respect to the Purchaser Termination Fee, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a party hereto shall be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such party, and the exercise by a party hereto of any one remedy shall not preclude the exercise of any other remedy.

(b)           The right to specific enforcement hereunder shall include the right of Seller to cause Purchaser to cause the Share Purchase and the other Transactions to be consummated on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement only in accordance with the express terms of Section 11.5(c) below.  Each of parties to this Agreement further agrees that no other party or any other person shall be required to obtain, furnish or post any bond or similar instrument in connection with or as a condition to obtaining any remedy referred to in this Section 11.5, and each of the parties to this Agreement irrevocably waives any right it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing or posting of any such bond or similar instrument.  Subject to Section 11.5(c), each of the parties to this Agreement agrees not to raise any objections to (i) the granting of an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement by Seller or the Company, on the one hand, or Purchaser, on the other hand and (ii) the specific performance of the terms and provisions of this Agreement to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants, obligations and agreements of Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement, in each case, on the basis that (A) either party has an adequate remedy at Law or (B) an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at equity or Law, or any similar grounds.

(c)           Notwithstanding the foregoing Section 11.5(a)-(b), it is explicitly agreed that the right of Seller to obtain an injunction, specific performance or other equitable remedies in connection with enforcing Purchaser’s obligation to cause the Equity Financing to be funded to fund the Total Share Purchase Amount payable in the Share Purchase and Purchaser’s obligations to cause the Closing to occur and to effect the consummation of the Share Purchase and other Transactions (but not the right of Seller to obtain such injunctions, specific performance or other equitable remedies for any other reason) shall be subject to the requirements that (i) the Marketing Period has ended and all of the conditions in Section 8.1 and Section 8.2 have been satisfied by the date the Closing is required to have occurred in accordance with Section 2.1 (other than those conditions that by their nature cannot be satisfied until the Closing Date, provided that such conditions would be capable of being satisfied if the Closing were on such date), (ii) Purchaser fails to complete the Share Purchase by the date the Closing is required to have occurred in accordance with Section 2.1, (iii) the Debt Financing

93

provided for by the Debt Commitment Letter has been funded in accordance with the terms thereof or will be funded in accordance with the terms thereof at the Closing Date, if the Equity Financing is funded at such time and (iv) Seller has irrevocably confirmed by written notice that if the Equity Financing and Debt Financing are funded, then it would take such actions that are within its control to cause the consummation of the Transactions and the Closing to occur.  In no event shall the Company be entitled to both a grant of specific performance to cause the Share Purchase to be consummated and payment of the Purchaser Termination Fee.

(d)           Without limiting the obligations of the Lenders under the Debt Commitment Letter and any Financing Agreement and the rights of Purchaser under the Debt Commitment Letter and any Financing Agreement, each of Seller and the Company acknowledges and agrees that no Lender Related Party shall have any liability to Seller or the Company (or any of their respective Representatives) in connection with this Agreement or any Transactions if such Lender Related Party breaches or fails to perform (whether willfully, intentionally, unintentionally or otherwise) any of its obligations under the Debt Commitment Letter and each of Seller and the Company (on behalf of itself and its Representatives) hereby waives any rights or claims against each Lender Related Party in connection with this Agreement and the Debt Financing, whether at law or equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise, and each of Seller and the Company (on behalf of itself and its Representatives) agrees not to commence (and if commenced agrees to dismiss or otherwise terminate) any action or proceeding against any Lender Related Party in connection with this Agreement or any Transaction (including any action or proceeding relating to the Debt Financing).  In no event shall Seller or the Company (or any of their respective Representatives) be entitled to directly seek the remedy of specific performance of this Agreement against any Lender Related Party.

11.6              Governing Law.

(a)           This Agreement shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to any applicable conflicts of law; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any disputes involving the Lender Related Parties (except as expressly set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter) will be governed by and construed in accordance with the applicable Laws of the State of New York without giving regard to conflicts or choice of law principles that would result in the application of any Law other than the Law of the State of New York.

(b)           All actions and proceedings arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be heard and determined in the Delaware Court of Chancery, or if no such state court has proper jurisdiction, then the Federal courts located in the State of Delaware (collectively, the “Delaware Courts”).  The parties hereto hereby (i) consent to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Delaware Courts for the purpose of any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement brought by any party hereto, (ii) irrevocably waive, and agree not to assert by way of motion, defense, or otherwise, in any such Action, any claim that it is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts, that its property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that the Action is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of the Action is improper, or that this Agreement or the Transactions may not be enforced in or by any of the above-named courts, (iii) agree to not bring any action relating to this Agreement or any of the Transactions in any court other than the Delaware Courts and

94

(iv) consents to service of process being made through the notice procedures set forth in Section 11.1.  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, each of the parties agree that it will not bring, or support the bringing of, any proceeding, claim or counterclaim, whether in law or in equity, whether arising in contract, tort, equity or otherwise, against the Lender Related Parties in any way relating to this Agreement or any of the Transactions, including any dispute arising out of or relating in any way to the Debt Commitment Letter or the performance thereof, in any forum other than the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, or, if under applicable Law exclusive jurisdiction is vested in the Federal courts, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York in the County of New York (and appellate courts thereof).

11.7              Waiver of Jury Trial.  EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS (INCLUDING THE DEBT FINANCING AND THE DEBT COMMITMENT LETTER AND ANY ACTION AGAINST ANY LENDER RELATED PARTY).  Each of the parties hereto (a) certifies that no representative, agent or attorney of any other party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce that foregoing waiver, (b) understands and has considered the implications of such waiver, (c) makes such waiver voluntarily and (d) acknowledges that it and the other hereto have been induced to enter into this Agreement and the Transactions, as applicable, by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Section 11.7.

11.8              General Interpretation.

(a)           The descriptive headings contained in this Agreement are included for convenience of reference only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

95

or were otherwise provided to Purchaser at least twenty-four (24) hours prior to the execution of this Agreement.

(f)            For clarity, as used in this Agreement, the term fraud does not include the doctrine of equitable fraud (i.e., fraud by innocent or negligent misrepresentation) under Delaware law.

11.12            Non-Recourse. Except as set forth in the Equity Commitment Letter and the Limited Guarantee, and in those instances, only to those entities explicitly set forth in the Equity Commitment Letter and the Limited Guarantee, as the case may be, (a) all claims or causes of action (whether in contract or in tort, in law or in equity) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement (including any representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Agreement or as an inducement to enter into this Agreement), may be made only against the entities that are expressly identified as parties hereto and only with respect to the specific obligations undertaken by such parties as set forth herein with respect to such parties and no other person shall have any liability for any obligations or liabilities based upon, arising out of, or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and (b) no Person who is not a named party to this Agreement, including without limitation any present or past director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, direct or indirect equityholder (including any members, partners or stockholders), manager, employee, incorporator, controlling person, management company, general partner, affiliate, trustees, agent, attorney, advisor, permitted
