(b) Each Earnout Payment related to the Earnout Periods shall be made to Parent by Purchaser on a quarterly basis within thirty (30) days after the completion of each fiscal quarter of Parent. For the sake of illustration, the first Earnout Payment will be made on or before May 1, 2012 (for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2012), and the last Earnout Payment will be made by Purchaser on or before May 1, 2015 (for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2015). Each Earnout Payment shall be accompanied by a statement (the “Earnout Statement”) that describes in reasonable detail how the Earnout Payment was calculated. Purchaser shall, and shall direct

its employees to, cooperate with Parent, and its professionals, and provide them with access to all Records necessary for their review of the Earnout Statement. All Earn-Out Payments owed to Parent pursuant to this Agreement, if any, shall be guaranteed by Purchaser Parent pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.15.

(c) Parent may dispute Purchaser’s calculation of any Earnout Payment by notifying Purchaser in writing, setting forth in reasonable detail the particulars of such disagreement (the “Notice of Objection”), within thirty (30) days after Parent’s receipt of any Earnout Payment. To the extent not set forth in the Notice of Objection, Parent shall be deemed to have agreed with all other calculations, items and amounts set forth in the Earnout Statement. In the event that Parent does not deliver a Notice of Objection to Purchaser within thirty (30) days after Parent’s receipt of the Earnout Statement, Parent shall be deemed to have accepted Purchaser’s calculation of the Earnout Payment set forth in the Earnout Statement. In the event that a Notice of Objection is timely delivered, Purchaser and Parent shall use their respective commercially reasonable efforts and exchange any information reasonably requested by the other Party for a period of fifteen (15) days after the receipt by Purchaser of the Notice of Objection, or such longer period as they may agree in writing, to resolve any disagreements set forth in the Notice of Objection. If Purchaser and Parent are unable to resolve such disagreements within such fifteen-day period (the items that remain in dispute at the end of such period (the “Unresolved Items”)) then, at any time thereafter, either Parent or Purchaser may require that an Independent Firm shall resolve the Unresolved Items. Upon selection of the Independent Firm, each of Purchaser and Parent shall submit an analysis of the Unresolved Items. Purchaser and Parent shall instruct the Independent Firm to determine as promptly as practicable, and in any event within thirty (30) days after the date on which such dispute is referred to the Independent Firm, based solely on the provisions of this Agreement and the written presentations by Parent and Purchaser, the value of the Unresolved Items. The determination of the Independent Firm shall be set forth in a written statement delivered to Parent and Purchaser and shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties, absent fraud or manifest error. The fees and disbursements of the Independent Firm under this Section 2.6(c) shall be borne exclusively by Seller unless the adjustments to the Unresolved Items resulting from Parent’s delivery of the Notice of Objection, caused change in the applicable Earnout Payment, as amended by Purchaser within fifteen (15) days after receipt by Purchaser of the Notice of Objection, in excess of Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000) in favor of Parent, in which case such fees and disbursements shall be borne exclusively by Purchaser.

2.7. Arbitration. In the event an Independent Firm is not selected or has not agreed to serve within the 10 Business Day period and 15 day period set forth in Section 2.5(e) or Section 2.6(c), respectively, then the Parties agree that any dispute, controversy or Claim arising out of or relating to the calculation of the Actual Net Book Value or the Earnout Payment shall be settled promptly by arbitration conducted in the City of Minneapolis, State of Minnesota, in accordance with the then applicable rules of the American Arbitration Association before a single arbitrator mutually selected by the Parties and, if the Parties cannot promptly so agree, one arbitrator shall be appointed by each of Purchaser and Parent and the arbitrators appointed by such Parties shall appoint a third arbitrator to conduct the arbitration in accordance with this Section 2.7. The losing Party, as determined by the arbitrators, shall pay all fees and expenses incurred by Purchaser and Parent in connection with the arbitration process described in this Section 2.7. It is the intention of the Parties that the arbitrators be selected from the American

Arbitration Association in accordance with its rules. In making determinations hereunder, the laws governing the terms of this Agreement shall govern. All determinations made by a majority of the arbitrators shall be final, conclusive and binding on all Parties and judgment upon the award entered by a majority of the arbitrators may be entered in any court having jurisdiction in accordance herewith or otherwise.

2.8. Transfer Taxes. Any transfer taxes, use or sales taxes, stamp duties, filing fees, registration fees, recordation expenses or other similar taxes, fees, charges or expenses incurred in connection with the transfer of the Acquired Assets to Purchaser or in connection with any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including, without limitation, any interest or penalties in respect thereof (the “Transfer Taxes”), as a result of any audit performed by a Governmental Authority subsequent to the Closing or any other reason, shall be borne equally by Purchaser and Seller. The Parties shall cooperate with each other to use their commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the Transfer Taxes attributable to the transfer of the Acquired Assets.

2.9. Purchase Price Allocation.

(a) Within the earlier of (a) sixty days after the Closing Date and (b) twenty days prior to the extended due date of the Tax Returns to which IRS Form 8594 must be attached, Purchaser shall deliver to Seller a statement (the “Allocation Statement”) allocating, for Tax purposes, the Purchase Price paid by Purchaser for the Acquired Assets among the Acquired Assets in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, subject to Seller’s consent to such allocation, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or denied. Seller shall provide its consent to, or any disagreement with, the Allocation Statement within three (3) Business days of its receipt from Purchaser. Seller and Purchaser shall cooperate in the filing of any forms (including Form 8594) with respect to such allocation. Seller and Purchaser agree that the portion of the Purchase Price allocated to the non-compete provisions set forth in Section 5.8 pursuant to the Allocation Statement shall be Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000).

(b) The Parties hereby agree to (i) be bound by the Allocation Statement, (ii) act in accordance with the Allocation Statement in connection with the preparation, filing and audit of any Tax Return (including, without limitation, in the filing of IRS Form 8594 and any corresponding other IRS forms) and (iii) take no position inconsistent with the Allocation Statement for any Tax purpose (including, without limitation, in any audit, judicial or administrative proceeding).

Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assist Purchaser in hiring any of the Terminated Employees,

(b) Seller will be responsible for and to: (i) pay out all wages, fees and other remuneration due to all of Seller’s consultants and contractors with respect to their respective services as to Seller and/or the Business through the close of business on the Closing Date, and (ii) pay out all accrued wages and all other accrued and vested benefits (including any severance amounts payable, any amounts payable under any Employee Benefit Plans, and any amounts payable in connection with termination of employment agreements and any retiree medical benefits) to each of the Terminated Employees; provided, however, Purchaser will reimburse Seller for these certain expenses related to the Terminated Employees in accordance with the terms of the Transition Production Agreement.

Unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, all of the covenants and obligations of the parties contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing indefinitely.

6.2. General Indemnification.

(a) Subject to Section 6.5 and the other provisions of this Article 6, after the Closing, Parent and Seller agree to jointly and severally indemnify, defend and hold Purchaser and/or its officers, directors, employees, stockholders and affiliates (each a “Purchaser Indemnitee” and together the “Purchaser Indemnitees”) harmless from any Loss suffered or paid, directly or indirectly, as a result of or arising out of (i) the breach of any representation or warranty made by Parent or Seller in Article 4, (ii) any breach by Parent or Seller of any of its covenants or agreements contained herein to be performed after the Closing, (iii) any liability to Goldenhill International M&A Advisors.

(b) Subject to Section 6.5 and the other provisions of this Article 6, after the Closing, Purchaser agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Parent or Seller and/or its officers, directors, employees, stockholders and affiliates (each a “Seller Indemnitee” and together the “Seller Indemnitees”) harmless from any Loss suffered or paid, directly or indirectly, as a result of or arising out of (i) the breach of any representation or warranty made by Purchaser in Article 3, and (ii) any breach by Purchaser of any of its covenants or agreements contained herein to be performed after the Closing.

(c) The obligations to indemnify and hold harmless pursuant to Section 6.2(a) and pursuant to Section 6.2(b) shall survive the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby until the end of the applicable Survival Periods, except for Claims for indemnification pursuant to such clauses that the Indemnified Party provides a Claim Notice with respect to such Claims on or before the expiration of the Survival Period, which Claims shall survive until final resolution thereof.

(d) All indemnification payments under this Article 6 shall be adjustments to the Purchase Price except as otherwise required by applicable law.

6.3. Notice of Claims. Any Party seeking indemnification under this Article 6 (the “Indemnified Party”) shall, within the relevant limitation period provided for in Section 6.2(c), promptly notify the Party obligated to indemnify such Indemnified Party (or, in the case of a Purchaser Indemnitee seeking indemnification, such Purchaser Indemnitee shall promptly notify Parent or Seller) (such notified Party, the “Responsible Party”) in writing (a “Claim Notice”) describing in reasonable detail the facts giving rise to any Claims for indemnification hereunder and shall include in such Claim Notice (if then known) the amount or the method of computation of the amount of such Claim, and a reference to the provision of this Agreement upon which such Claim is based; provided, that a Claim Notice in respect of any action at law or suit in equity by or against a third Person as to which indemnification will be sought shall be given promptly after the action or suit is commenced; provided, further, that failure to give such written notice shall not relieve the Responsible Party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that the Responsible Party shall have been materially prejudiced by such failure. The Indemnified Party shall give the Responsible Party reasonable access to the books, records and assets of the Indemnified Party which evidence or support such Claim or the act, omission or occurrence giving rise to such Claim and the right, upon reasonable prior notice during normal business hours, to interview any appropriate personnel of the Indemnified Party related thereto.

6.4. Third Party Claims.

(a) In the case of a Claim, action, suit or proceeding by a third party (a “Third Party Claim”) as to which indemnification is sought by an Indemnified Party, the Responsible Party shall have 30 days after receipt of the Claim Notice to assume the conduct and control, through counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party at the expense of the Responsible Party, of the settlement or defense thereof, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with it in connection therewith. If the Responsible Party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in but not control such defense through counsel chosen by such Indemnified Party, provided that, the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be borne by such Indemnified Party. So long as the Responsible Party is reasonably contesting any such Claim in good faith, the Indemnified Party shall not pay or settle any such Claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to pay or settle any such Claim, provided that in such event it shall waive any right to indemnity therefor by the Responsible Party, for such Claim. If the Responsible Party does not notify the Indemnified Party within 90 days after the receipt of the Claim Notice that it elects to undertake the defense thereof, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to contest, settle or compromise the Claim but shall not thereby waive any right to indemnity therefor pursuant to this Agreement. The Responsible Party shall not, except with the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the person or persons asserting such Claim to all Indemnified Parties of an unconditional release from all liability with respect to such Claim or consent to entry of any judgment.

(b) Any Indemnified Party shall cooperate in all reasonable respects with the Responsible Party and its attorneys in the investigation, trial and defense of any Third Party

Claim and any appeal arising therefrom and shall furnish such records, information and testimony, and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith. Such cooperation shall include access during normal business hours afforded to the Responsible Party and its agents and representatives to, and reasonable retention by the Indemnified Party of, records and information which have been identified by the Responsible Party as being reasonably relevant to such Third Party Claim, and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. The Parties shall cooperate with each other in any notifications to insurers.

6.5. Limitations on Indemnification Obligations.

(a) The rights of the Purchaser Indemnitees and Seller Indemnities, as applicable, to indemnification pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.2 are subject to the following limitations:

(i) An Indemnified Party shall not be entitled to recover for any Loss pursuant to Section 6.2 unless and until the aggregate amount of all Losses, which the Indemnified Party would have been entitled to recover under Section 6.2 but for this Section 6.5(a), exceeds the amount of twenty percent (20%) of the Purchase Price, and then only for such Losses in excess of such amount (the “Threshold”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser shall be entitled to recover any and all Losses related to Warranty Liabilities without regard to the Threshold, and all such Claims shall be paid in full.

(ii) In no event shall an Indemnified Party be entitled to recover more than the amount of forty percent (40%) of the Purchase Price, except in the case of fraud or willful misconduct by a particular indemnitor hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser shall be entitled to recover any and all Losses related to Warranty Liabilities, which Losses shall be excluded from the foregoing 40% threshold.

(b) The aggregate Losses for which the Purchaser Indemnitees or the Seller Indemnitees shall be entitled to seek and obtain indemnification pursuant to Section 6.2 shall not include (i) amounts paid or required to be paid to any third party as punitive damages or exemplary damages or (ii) any consequential damages incurred or suffered by the Indemnified Party. The parties hereby agree that no Losses incurred by an Indemnified Party shall be deemed or treated for purposes of this Section 6.5(b) as consequential damages to the extent that such Losses (x) are incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with a Claim asserted by a third party against the Indemnified Party with respect to any matter for which there has been a breach by the other Party of any representation or warranty made in this Agreement by such Party and (y) consist solely of amounts paid or required to be paid to such third party in connection with such Claim

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, upon any Indemnified Party’s becoming aware of any Claim as to which indemnification may be sought by such Indemnified Party pursuant to this Article 6, such Indemnified Party shall utilize all reasonable efforts, consistent with normal practices and policies and good commercial practice, to mitigate such Losses.

6.6. Exclusive Remedy. Notwithstanding anything else contained in this Agreement to the contrary, but subject to Section 7.1, after the Closing, indemnification pursuant to the provisions of this Article 6 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all Claims (whether in contract or tort) relating to this Agreement, including any breach of the covenants, agreements, representations or warranties set forth herein, the subject matter of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, except in the case of fraud or willful misconduct by Parent or Seller.

This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements, oral and written, between the Parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and may be amended or modified only by a written instrument executed by Purchaser and Seller.

No representation, inducement, promise, understanding, condition or warranty not set forth herein has been made or relied upon by either Party hereto.

7.11. Schedules. The Schedules to this Agreement constitute a part of this Agreement and are incorporated into this Agreement for all purposes as if fully set forth herein.

Whenever possible, each provision hereof shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but in case any one or more of the provisions contained herein shall, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions of this Agreement, and this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or provisions had never been contained herein unless the deletion of such provision or provisions would result in such a material change as to cause completion of the transactions contemplated hereby to be unreasonable.

This guaranty is an absolute, present and continuing guaranty of Purchaser’s payment of the Earnout Payments hereunder and not merely a guaranty of collectability. In the event that Purchaser does not perform its obligations under this Agreement with regard to the payment of the Earnout Payments as provided herein, Parent shall have the right under this guaranty by Purchaser Parent to seek performance directly from Purchaser Parent without any requirement that Parent shall have first demanded performance from Purchaser, given Purchaser any notice of Purchaser’s failure to perform or taken any enforcement action against Purchaser. In furtherance of the foregoing, Purchaser Parent acknowledges and agrees that Parent may, in its sole discretion, bring and prosecute a separate action or actions against Purchaser Parent to enforce its obligations under this Section, regardless of whether an action is brought against Purchaser, or whether Purchaser is joined in any such action or actions.
