2.5 Allocation.

(a) The Gross Consideration and any Assumed Liability or other amount that is properly included in the amount realized by Seller or cost basis to Buyer with respect to the sale, contribution and purchase of the Purchased Assets (the “Tax Purchase Price”) shall be allocated among the Purchased Assets in accordance with Treasury Regulations § 1.1060-1(c) and the methodology set forth on Schedule 2.5. Within 90 days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Seller a draft IRS Form 8594 reflecting the allocation of the Tax Purchase Price consistent with the principles of this Section 2.5 and the methodology set forth on Schedule 2.5 and taking into account any allocation of the Gross Consideration made pursuant to Section 7.2(f). If Seller does not give written notice to Buyer within 15 days after receipt from Buyer of such draft IRS Form 8594 that Seller disagrees with any part or all of such allocation, then such allocation as so proposed by Buyer shall be deemed agreed by Seller and Buyer for purposes of this Section 2.5. If Seller does so give notice of any such objection, then from that time until the expiration of 120 days after Seller gives such notice, Buyer and Seller shall negotiate in good faith to reach mutual agreement regarding any matters subject to such objection and the allocation of the Tax Purchase Price consistent with the requirements of this Section 2.5, and if Buyer and Seller do reach such agreement within such period, then the allocation so agreed upon shall be deemed agreed by the Parties for purposes of this Section 2.5. In the event that Seller does give notice of any such objection and Buyer and Seller are unable to reach agreement on all such matters, then the allocation of the Tax Purchase Price, to the extent not so agreed, shall be determined by ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP, independent public accountants, or, if Buyer and Seller are unable to engage the Independent Accountants for any reason, then Buyer and Seller will each designate nationally or regionally recognized independent accountants with whom no Party has any current professional relationship, then the independent will be chosen by lot (the “Independent Accountants”). The Parties agree that they shall jointly instruct the Independent Accountants to (A) make their determination of the allocation of the Tax Purchase Price in accordance with the methodology set forth in Section 2.5, and (B) render a final resolution in writing to Buyer and Seller (which final resolution shall be requested by Buyer and Seller to be delivered not more than 30 days following submission of such disputed matters), which shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties with respect to the allocation of the Tax Purchase Price as finally determined by the Independent Accountants in accordance with the methodology set forth on Section 2.5. The Independent Accountants will determine the allocation of its fees and expenses to the respective Parties based on the inverse of the percentage that the Independent Accountants’ resolution of the disputed items (before such allocation) bears to the total amount of the disputed items as originally submitted to the Independent Accountants. (For example, if the total amount of the disputed items as originally submitted to the Independent Accountants equals $1,000 and the Independent Accountants awards $600 in favor of Seller’s position, sixty percent (60%) of the fees and expenses of the Independent Accountants would be borne by Buyer and forty percent (40%) of the fees and expenses of the Independent Accountants would be borne by Seller). Judgment upon any decision by the Independent Accountants may be enforced by any court having jurisdiction thereof. The final allocation of Tax Purchase Price as agreed upon by Buyer and Seller or as determined by the Independent Accountants is hereinafter referred to as the “Allocation.”

(b) Buyer shall be entitled to revise the Allocation, in accordance with Code Section 1060 and the Treasury Regulations, to appropriately take into account any payments made under this Agreement treated as an adjustment to the consideration for federal, state and local income tax purposes, including, without limitation, to implement the Adjustment Amount (to the extent the Adjustment Amount has not been finally determined as of the time the Allocation has been determined) and shall promptly provide Seller with such revisions to the Allocation.

(c) The Parties agree that the Allocation is reasonable and covenant and agree that they will (i) report, act and file Tax Returns, and any other filings, declarations or reports with the IRS and/or other taxing authorities in respect thereof including the reports required to be filed under Code Section 1060, in all respects and for all purposes consistent with the Allocation (including any adjustment thereto made pursuant to Section 2.5(b) of this Agreement) unless otherwise required pursuant to a final determination (within the meaning of Code Section 1313(a) or corresponding provision of state, local or foreign Tax law); and (ii) promptly advise each other regarding the existence of any Tax audit, controversy or litigation related to the Allocation.

(d) The Parties agree that, for federal and state income tax purposes, the allocation of the Gross Consideration described in this Section 2.5 will be used to establish the Gross Asset Value of the undivided interest in each of the Contributed Assets.

2.6 Closing. The closing of the Contemplated Transactions (the “Closing”) will be held by electronic exchange of documents (a) on the date of this Agreement, or (b) such other time and place as the Parties may agree (the “Closing Date”).

2.8 Adjustment Procedure.

(a) The “Adjustment Amount” (which may be a positive or negative number) will be equal to the amount determined by subtracting the Reference Working Capital from the Working Capital and multiplying that remainder by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Gross Consideration minus the Contribution Value, and the denominator of which is the Gross Consideration. For purposes of computing the Adjustment Amount, the “Reference Working Capital” shall be $1,728,622.

(b) Buyer shall prepare financial statements (the “Closing Financial Statements”) of the Acquired Assets and Assumed Liabilities as of the Effective Time using the same methodology as Seller’s past practices. Buyer shall then, using the same methodology as was used to calculate the Estimated Working Capital, determine the Working Capital based upon the Closing Financial Statements. Buyer shall deliver the Closing Financial Statements and its determination of Working Capital and the Adjustment Amount to Seller within 90 days following the Closing Date.

(c) If within 30 days following delivery to Seller of the Closing Financial Statements and, based thereon, Buyer’s determination of Working Capital and the Adjustment Amount Seller has not given Buyer written notice of Seller’s objection to Buyer’s determination of Working Capital and the Adjustment Amount (which notice shall state the basis of Seller’s objection in reasonable detail) (an “Objection Notice”), then Working Capital and the Adjustment Amount as so determined by Buyer shall be binding and conclusive on the Parties.

(d) If Seller duly gives Buyer such notice of objection, and if Seller and Buyer fail to agree on the Adjustment Amount within 30 days of Buyer’s receipt of the objection notice from Seller, either Seller or Buyer may at any time thereafter elect, by written notice to the other Party, to have the Adjustment Amount determined by the Independent Accountants. Upon delivery of such written notice, each of Seller and Buyer shall promptly (and, in any case, no later than 10 days thereafter) deliver to the Independent Accountants and to the other Party its proposed Closing Financial Statements and, based thereon, its determination of Working Capital and the Adjustment Amount. The Independent Accountants will act as an arbitrator to determine, based solely on presentations by Buyer and Seller, and not by independent review, only those issues still in dispute with respect to the Objection Notice; provided that in its determination of any disputed item the Independent Accountants may not assign a value to such item that is greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by Buyer or Seller or less than the lowest value for such item claimed by Buyer or Seller. Buyer and Seller will instruct the Independent Accountants to render its determination with respect to the items in dispute in a written report that specifies the conclusions of the Independent Accountants as to each item in dispute and the resulting Working Capital and Adjustment Amount. Buyer and Seller will each use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Independent Accountants to render its determination within 30 days after referral of the items to such firm or as soon thereafter as reasonably practicable. In resolving such dispute, the Independent Accountants will apply the provisions of this Agreement concerning determination of the amounts set forth in the Objection Notice and the decision of the Independent Accountants will be solely based on (A) whether such disputed item was prepared in accordance with the guidelines set forth in this Agreement concerning determination of the amounts set forth in the Objection Notice and (B) whether the item objected to contains a mathematical or clerical error. There will be no ex parte communication between any of Buyer or Seller or their respective Representatives, on the one hand, and the Independent Accountants, on the other hand. The Independent Accountants’ determination of the Working Capital and Adjustment Amount as set forth in its report will, absent fraud or manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties for purposes of this Agreement. The Independent Accountants will determine the allocation of its fees and expenses to the respective Parties based on the inverse of the percentage that the Independent Accountants’ resolution of the disputed items (before such allocation) bears to the total amount of the disputed items as originally submitted to the Independent Accountants. (For example, if the total amount of the disputed items as originally submitted to the Independent Accountants equals $1,000 and the Independent Accountants awards $600 in favor of Seller’s position, sixty percent (60%) of the fees and expenses of the Independent Accountants would be borne by Buyer and forty percent (40%) of the fees and expenses of the Independent Accountants would be borne by Seller).

(e) If the Adjustment Amount as finally determined is:

(i) less than the Estimated Adjustment Amount, then, within three Business Days after such determination, Seller shall pay or cause to be paid such deficiency to Buyer by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such bank account of Buyer as Buyer shall specify to Seller in writing; or

(ii) greater than the Estimated Adjustment Amount, then Buyer shall, within three Business Days after such determination, pay to or as directed by Seller the amount of such excess by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such bank account or accounts as Seller shall specify to Buyer in writing. The Cash Purchase Price as adjusted by the Adjustment Amount is referred to herein as the “Adjusted Cash Purchase Price.”

2.9 Escrow of Indemnification Escrow Amount and Special Escrow Amount. The Escrow Agreement will provide for, among other things, deposit of the Indemnification Escrow Amount and the Special Escrow Amount with the Escrow Agent and the maintenance and distribution thereof by the Escrow Agent for, in respect of the Indemnification Escrow Amount and Special Escrow Amount, a period of 18 months from and after the Closing.

2.10 Tax Characterization. The Parties agree that, for federal and state income tax purposes, the transfers occurring pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the Stockholder Agreement are intended to be treated as (a) Seller’s sale and Buyers purchase of the Purchased Assets; and (b) Seller’s contribution of the Contributed Assets as tax-free a capital contribution by Seller to Buyer Parent under Code Section 351. The Parties recognize that Buyer’s acquisition of the Purchased Assets hereunder will be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as the acquisition of a trade or business. Each Party acknowledges that it is relying solely on its own tax advisors in connection with this Agreement. None of the Parties shall take any position for income Tax purposes that is inconsistent with the treatment of the Purchased Assets and the Contributed Assets as set forth in this Section 2.10 unless otherwise required pursuant to applicable Law.

2.11 Third Party Consents. To the extent that Seller’s rights under any Contract or Governmental Authorization constituting an Acquired Asset, or any other Acquired Asset, may not be assigned to Buyer without the consent of another Person which has not been obtained, this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign the same if an attempted assignment would constitute a breach thereof or be unlawful, and Seller, at its expense, shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain any such required consent(s) as promptly as possible. If any such consent shall not be obtained or if any attempted assignment would be ineffective so that Buyer would not in effect acquire the benefit of all such rights, Seller, to the maximum extent permitted by law and the Acquired Asset, shall act after Closing as Buyer’s agent in order to obtain for it the benefits thereunder and shall cooperate, to the maximum extent permitted by Legal Requirement and the Acquired Asset, with Buyer in any other reasonable arrangement designed to provide such benefits to Buyer.

2.12 Notices to Customers and Suppliers; Payments Received by Sellers Post-Closing. On the Closing Date, Sellers shall send a notice acceptable to Buyer to all customers and suppliers of Seller that invoices and other communications relating to the Business and/or the Acquired Assets shall be sent to an address that Buyer has designated therein. Sellers shall promptly transfer to Buyer all payments received by Sellers and/or their Affiliates following the Closing that relate to the Acquired Assets, which such payments shall be the sole property of Buyer. Buyer shall promptly transfer to Seller all payments received by Buyer and/or its Affiliates following the Closing that relate to the Excluded Assets, which such payments shall be the sole property of Seller.

(a) Responsibility for Taxes.

(i) In the case of any sales or use taxes, value-added taxes, employment taxes, withholding taxes, and any Tax based on or measured by income, receipts or profits, obligations shall be allocated to the Pre-Closing Tax Period or the Post-Closing Tax Period, as applicable, by assuming that the Pre-Closing Tax Period and the Post-Closing Tax Period consisted of two taxable years or periods, one which ended at the close of the Closing Date and the other which began at the beginning of the day following the Closing Date and items of income, gain, deduction, loss or credit shall be allocated between such two taxable years or periods on a “closing of the books basis” by assuming that the books were closed at the close of the Closing Date. In the case of any other Taxes, obligations shall be allocated to the Pre-Closing Tax Period and the Post-Closing Tax Period based upon a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the period ending on the close of the Closing Date, in the case of an allocation to a Pre-Closing Tax Period, or the number of calendar days in the period beginning the day following the Closing Date and ending on the last day of the period, in the case of an allocation to a Post-Closing Tax Period, and in each case the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire period.

Seller and Buyer shall cooperate with respect to the filing of any Tax Returns required to be filed in the Post-Closing Tax Period which include Pre-Closing Tax Obligations (a “Shared Tax Return”). Buyer shall prepare a draft of any Shared Tax Return and deliver it to Seller at least 45 days prior to the due date (including

valid extensions) for such Shared Tax Return (except in the case of a Tax Return where such 45-day period is not practical, in which case as soon as is reasonably practical). If Seller does not give notice to Buyer within 15 days after receipt from Buyer of such draft Shared Tax Return that Seller disagrees with any part or all of such Shared Tax Return, then such Shared Tax Return as so proposed by Buyer shall be deemed agreed by Seller and Buyer for purposes of this Section 7.2(b). If Seller does give notice of any such objection, then from that time until the expiration of 30 days after Seller’s receipt of the draft Shared Tax Return from Buyer, Buyer and Seller shall negotiate in good faith to reach mutual agreement regarding any matters subject to such objection, and if Buyer and Seller do reach such agreement within such period, then the Shared Tax Return so agreed upon shall be deemed agreed by the Parties for purposes of this Section 7.2(b). In the event that Seller gives notice of any such objection and Buyer and Seller are unable to reach agreement on all such matters, then the items on the Shared Tax Return, to the extent not so agreed, shall be determined by the Independent Accountants. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountants shall be borne by the Parties in the manner described in Section 2.5(a) and Section 2.8(d), but Buyer and Seller shall otherwise each bear its respective fees and expenses incurred in connection with the dispute In no event shall the provision of comments by Seller prevent Buyer from timely filing any such Tax Return, provided however, that in the event that the Independent Accountants have not resolved a dispute between Buyer and Seller prior to the deadline for filing such Tax Return (including valid extensions), Buyer shall be entitled to file such Tax Return (or amendment) as prepared by Buyer subject to amendment to reflect the resolution when rendered by the Independent Accountants. Any Pre-Closing Tax Obligations owed by Seller on a Shared Tax Return shall be paid by Seller to Buyer by the due date (as it may be extended) of such Shared Tax Return.

(c) Buyer shall promptly notify Seller in writing upon receipt by Buyer of any notice of any audits, examinations, adjustments, assessments, Proceedings or other similar events relating to any Taxes imposed on the Acquired Assets relating to a Pre-Closing Tax Period (a “Tax Proceeding”). Seller may elect, within 30 days of receiving such notice, to direct any Tax Proceeding, at its expense, that relates solely to a Pre-Closing Tax Period and for which Seller for any Taxes that may result (a “Seller’s Tax Contest”) and to employ counsel of its choice; provided, however, that Buyer shall have the right, at its expense, to consult with Seller regarding a Seller’s Tax Contest. Buyer, at its expense, shall have the right to control all other the Tax Proceedings (a “Buyer’s Tax Contest”); provided, however, that Seller shall have the right, at its expense, to consult with Buyer regarding a Buyer’s Tax Contest if Seller would be liable pursuant to Section 7.2(a) for a portion of the Taxes that may result from a Buyer’s Tax Contest; and provided, further, that Buyer may not agree to settle any Buyer’s Tax Contest without Seller’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, unless Buyer agrees to assume and become liable for all Taxes resulting from a Buyer’s Tax Contest.

(d) Buyer and Seller shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other Party, in connection with the preparation and filing of Tax Returns pursuant to Section 7.2(b) or otherwise and any audit, litigation or other Tax Proceeding with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation shall include without limitation, the furnishing or making available during normal business hours of records, personnel (as reasonably required), books of account, powers of attorney or other materials or authorizations necessary or helpful for the preparation and filing of such Tax Returns or that are reasonably relevant to any audit, litigation or other Tax Proceeding.

(e) Tax Treatment of Payments. Any payments made under this Section 7.2 shall be deemed to be, and each of Buyer and Seller shall treat them, as adjustments to the Gross Consideration for federal, state, local and all other income tax purposes.

(f) Sales, Use and Other Taxes. Buyer and Seller shall cooperate in preparing, executing and filing Tax Returns relating to any sales, use, real estate, transfer, stamp duty, value-added, documentary, title, registration, recording, and other similar Taxes (“Transfer Taxes”) relating to the purchase and sale of the Acquired Assets, and also shall cooperate to minimize or avoid any Transfer Taxes that might be imposed, to the extent permitted by Legal Requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, including Section 7.2(a), Seller and Buyer will be equally responsible for the payment of any Transfer Taxes incurred in connection with the purchase and sale of the Acquired Assets. Within thirty (30) days after the Closing Date, Seller and Buyer shall execute and deliver an agreement between them regarding the allocation of Gross Consideration (and any other consideration required to be taken into account for purposes of determining the amounts of such Transfer Taxes) with respect to Acquired Assets subject to such Transfer Taxes consistent with the principles and requirements as for allocating Tax Purchase Price as set forth in Section 2.5.

7.3 Payment of Other Retained Liabilities. In addition to payment of Taxes pursuant to Section 7.2, Seller shall pay or otherwise satisfy, or make adequate provision for the payment or satisfaction, in full of all of the Retained Liabilities and other Liabilities of Seller under this Agreement, provided, however, Seller may in good faith dispute such Retained Liabilities or other Liabilities.

7.4 Removing Excluded Assets. Except as otherwise provided in any of the Leases, within 30 days after the Closing Date, Seller shall, at its sole cost and expense, remove all Excluded Assets from all Facilities and other Leased Real Property to be occupied by Buyer. Such removal shall be done in such manner as to avoid any damage to the Facilities and other properties to be occupied by Buyer and any disruption of the business operations to be conducted by Buyer after the Closing. Any damage to the Acquired Assets or to the Facilities resulting from such removal shall be promptly paid by Seller. Should Seller fail to remove the Excluded Assets as required by this Section 7.5, Buyer shall have the right, but not the obligation, (a) to remove the Excluded Assets at Seller’s sole cost and expense; (b) to store the Excluded Assets and to charge Seller all storage costs associated therewith; (c) to treat the Excluded Assets as unclaimed and to proceed to dispose of the same under the laws governing unclaimed property; or (d) to exercise any other right or remedy conferred by this Agreement or otherwise available at law or in equity. Seller shall promptly reimburse Buyer for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Buyer in connection with any Excluded Assets not removed by Seller within 30 days of the Closing Date.

7.5 Assistance in Proceedings. Each of the Parties will cooperate with the other Parties and their counsel in the contest or defense of, and make available its personnel and provide any testimony and access to its books and Records related thereto in connection with, any Proceeding involving a Third Party Claim relating to (a) any Contemplated Transaction or (b) the Business.

7.6 Non-competition, Nonsolicitation, Non-disparagement and Confidentiality.

(a) Non-competition. During the Restricted Period, Seller and Owners shall not, and Owners shall not permit their respective Families, anywhere in the United States, directly or indirectly, invest in, own, manage, operate, finance, control, advise, render services to or guarantee the obligations of any Person engaged in or planning to become engaged in any business or enterprise which distributes, provides, renders or sells products or services which compete with the Business in any respect (“Competing Business”).

(b) Non-solicitation. During the Restricted Period, Seller and Owners shall not, and Owners shall not permit their respective Families, directly or indirectly, through another Person or entity to:

(i) solicit the business of any Person who is a customer of Buyer or its Related Persons;

(iii) cause, induce or attempt to cause or induce any customer, supplier, licensee, licensor, franchisee, employee, consultant or other business relation of Seller on the Closing Date or within the two years preceding the Closing Date to cease doing business with Buyer or its Related Persons, to deal with any competitor of Buyer or its Related Persons or in any way interfere with its relationship with Buyer or its Related Persons; or

(iv) hire, retain or attempt to hire or retain any employee or independent contractor of Buyer or its Related Persons or in any way interfere with the relationship between Buyer or its Related Persons and any of their respective employees or independent contractors.

(c) Non-disparagement. After the Closing Date, Seller and Owners will not disparage Buyer or any of its Related Persons, shareholders, directors, officers, employees, agents or affiliates.

Seller agrees to keep confidential and not disclose, directly or indirectly, any such Proprietary Information to any Third Party or the existence of this Agreement or the terms hereof, except as required by applicable law, both

statutory and common. Seller agrees to not use or exploit, or misuse or misappropriate such Proprietary Information in any way. The restrictions contained herein shall not apply to any information which was already generally available to the public at the time of disclosure, or subsequently became available to the public, otherwise than by Breach of this Agreement.

(e) Modification of Covenant. If a final judgment of a court or tribunal of competent jurisdiction determines that any term or provision contained in Section 7.6(a) through (d) is invalid or unenforceable, then the Parties agree that the court or tribunal will have the power to reduce the scope, duration or geographic area of the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision. This Section 7.6 will be enforceable as so modified after the expiration of the time within which the judgment may be appealed. This Section 7.6 is reasonable and necessary to protect and preserve Buyer’s legitimate business interests and the value of the Acquired Assets and to prevent any unfair advantage conferred on Seller.

7.7 Customer and Other Business Relationships. After the Closing, Seller will reasonably cooperate with Buyer, at Buyer’s expense, in its efforts to continue and maintain for the benefit of Buyer those business relationships of Seller existing prior to the Closing and relating to the business to be operated by Buyer after the Closing, including relationships with lessors, employees, regulatory authorities, licensors, customers, suppliers and others.

7.10 Collection of Accounts Receivable.

(a) Seller shall provide such assistance to Buyer as Buyer may reasonably request in connection with Buyer’s efforts to collect any Accounts Receivable, and shall promptly (but in no event later than three (3) Business Days after receipt thereof) deliver to Buyer (i) any cash, checks or other property that Seller receives following the Closing to the extent relating to the Accounts Receivable or other Acquired Assets or the Business, and (ii) a true copy of any notice of a dispute as to the validity or enforceability of any Accounts Receivable received from the debtor thereof.

(b) Effective upon the Closing Date, Seller hereby constitutes and appoints Buyer and its successors and assigns the true and lawful attorney in fact of Seller with full power of substitution, in the name of Buyer, or the name of Seller, to collect the Accounts Receivable, and to endorse, without recourse, checks, notes and other instruments constituting or relating to the Accounts Receivable in the name of Seller. The foregoing power is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable by Seller, directly or indirectly, whether by the dissolution of Seller or in any manner or for any reason.

7.11 SEC Financial Statements, Auditor's Consents and Audited Financial Statements.

(a) After the Effective Time, upon Buyer’s request and at Buyer’s expense, Seller will cooperate with and use its commercially reasonable efforts to assist Buyer and Buyer’s designated independent auditor with respect to the preparation of financial statements relating to the Business as Buyer is required to file under regulation S-X of the U.S. federal securities laws (the “SEC Financial Statements”), including by using commercially reasonable efforts to assist Buyer within the time periods required by applicable securities laws and regulations and securities exchange requirements.

(b) Seller hereby agrees to consent to the inclusion of such SEC Financial Statements and information in any filings by Buyer with any securities regulatory authority or exchange. To the extent required following the Effective Time, Seller further hereby agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts, at Buyer’s request and at Buyer’s expense: (a) to request its auditors to provide to Buyer any such auditor's consent to the inclusion of any such SEC Financial Statements or the information contained therein, in any filings by or on behalf of Buyer with any applicable securities regulatory authority or securities exchange, and (b) to request that its auditors cooperate with Buyer and its auditors in the preparation of the pro forma financial statements required under Regulation S-X of the federal securities

laws, including by using commercially reasonable efforts to assist Buyer within the time periods required by applicable securities laws and regulations and securities exchange requirements to reflect, among other things, the elimination of the Excluded Assets and the Retained Liabilities.

7.12 Recall Control. Following the Closing, Buyer shall have the right, but not the obligation, at its sole cost and expense, to assume sole and absolute control (including selection of counsel) over any Recall (including any Recall (without requiring any determination by NHTSA) that, at Buyer’s determination, is reasonably required by NHTSA’s regulations and regardless of whether a determination has been by NHTSA), including any policies, procedures and proceeding (including any Third Party claims arising therefrom) with respect thereto; provided, that in the event that Buyer assumes such sole and absolute control, it shall be responsible for all Damages incurred solely as a result of such Recall. Seller and its Affiliates shall, at no cost to Buyer, assist Buyer in the evaluation and investigation of any underlying issues or concerns regarding a Recall or potential Recall and shall cooperate with Buyer in its response to any Recall.

7.13 Further Assurances. The Parties shall cooperate reasonably with each other and with their respective Representatives in connection with any steps required to be taken as part of their respective obligations under this Agreement, and shall (a) furnish upon request to each other such further information; (b) execute and deliver to each other such other documents; and (c) do such other acts and things, all as any other Party may reasonably request for the purpose of carrying out the intent of this Agreement and the Contemplated Transactions.

8. INDEMNIFICATION; REMEDIES.

8.1 Survival. All representations, warranties, covenants and obligations in this Agreement, shall survive the Closing and the consummation of the Contemplated Transactions, subject to Section 8.7. The right to indemnification, reimbursement or other remedy based upon such representations, warranties, covenants and obligations shall not be affected by any investigation (including any environmental investigation or assessment) conducted with respect to, 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 obligation. The waiver of any condition based upon the accuracy of any representation or warranty, or on the performance of or compliance with any covenant or obligation, will not affect the right to indemnification, reimbursement or other remedy based upon such representations, warranties, covenants and obligations.

8.2 Representation and Warranty Policy.

(a) Buyer has obtained a transaction liability insurance policy (the “R&W Policy”) from Euclid Transactional, LLC, in form and substance previously approved by Seller, insuring Buyer for any and all Damages, in excess of the Indemnity Escrow Amount, resulting from any breach or inaccuracy of any representation and warranty of Seller or Owners hereunder, the premium of which will be paid in accordance with Section 10.1 and the R&W Policy does not permit claims of subrogation against Seller or Owners.

(b) Buyer has carefully reviewed the R&W Policy and understands its contents, terms and limits.

(c) Damages suffered or incurred by any Buyer Indemnified Persons will be recoverable solely from the applicable sources, and in accordance with the applicable order of priority, set forth in Section 8.2(d), and the Buyer Indemnified Persons hereby acknowledge and agree that: (i) other than with respect to the Seller Fundamental Representations and claims arising out of intentional fraud or criminal or willful misconduct, no Damages under Section 8.3(a) in excess of the Cap will be recoverable from Seller or any of the Owners; and (ii) the liability of Seller or any Owner to the Buyer Indemnified Persons for Damages under any other provision of Section 8.3 (or otherwise relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) will be subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement (as applicable).

the Escrow Agreement); (2) second, from claims for recovery under the R&W Policy (to the extent such recovery is available under and within the scope of the R&W Policy); and (3) third, solely with respect to breaches of Fundamental Representations, in cash from the Seller or Owners, jointly and severally;

(ii) with respect to any Damages under any provision of Section 8.3(b), such Damages will be recovered (1) first, from the Indemnity Escrow Funds (and Buyer and the Seller will execute the necessary documents instructing the Escrow Agent to make the applicable payments in accordance with the Escrow Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement) and (2) second, in cash from Seller or Owners, jointly and severally; and

(iii) with respect to any Damages under any provision of Section 8.3 (other than Section 8.3(a) and Section 8.3(b)) and subject to Section 7.12, such Damages will be recovered (1) first, from the Special Escrow Funds (and Buyer and the Seller will execute the necessary documents instructing the Escrow Agent to make the applicable payments in accordance with the Escrow Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement); (2) second, from the Indemnity Escrow Funds (and Buyer and the Seller will execute the necessary documents instructing the Escrow Agent to make the applicable payments in accordance with the Escrow Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement), and (3) third, in cash from Seller or Owners, jointly and severally;

provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the aggregate maximum amount of Damages for which the Buyer Indemnified Persons may recover from Seller or Owners, jointly and severally, under this Article 8 will in no event exceed the Gross Consideration actually received by Seller (the “Gross Consideration Cap”).

(e) With respect to any Damages that could be claimed under Section 8.3(a) and which could also be claimed under any other provisions of Section 8.3, such Damages must be claimed first under Section 8.3(a) and pursued under the R&W Policy, and, thereafter, Buyer shall be permitted to pursue such claim under any other provisions of Section 8.3 to the extent the R&W Policy does not cover such claim, whether in whole or part.

8.3 Indemnification and Reimbursement by Seller. Subject to the provisions of Section 8.2 and Schedule 2.4(a)(viii) and the limitations set forth in Sections 8.5 and Sections 8.7, after the Closing Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless Buyer and its Representatives, subsidiaries and Related Persons (collectively, the “Buyer Indemnified Persons”), and will reimburse the Buyer Indemnified Persons, for any loss, liability, claim, damage and expense (including costs of investigation and defense and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses), whether or not involving a Third-Party Claim (collectively, “Damages”), arising from or in connection with:

(a) any Breach of any representation or warranty made by Seller in this Agreement (as qualified by the Disclosure Schedules);

(b) any Breach of any covenant or obligation of Seller in this Agreement;

(a) any Breach of any representation or warranty made by Buyer in this Agreement or in any certificate, document, writing or instrument delivered by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement;

(b) any Breach of any covenant or obligation of Buyer in this Agreement or in any other certificate, document, writing or instrument delivered by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement;

(e) any Liabilities arising out of the ownership or operation of the Acquired Assets or Business after the Effective Time other than the Retained Liabilities.

8.5 Limitations on Amount - Seller. Seller shall have no Liability (for indemnification or otherwise) with respect to claims under Section 8.3(a) until the total of all Damages with respect to such matters exceeds $331,250 (the “Deductible”) and then only for the amount by which such Damages exceed the Deductible up to an amount equal to $331,250 (the “Cap”). However, the limitations in this Section 8.5 will not apply to claims under or to matters arising in respect of Sections 3.1 (only as to due organization), 3.2 (enforceability; authority; no conflict), 3.3 (ownership of Seller)(collectively, the “Fundamental Representations”), or to fraud or any willful or intentional Breach by Seller of any representation or warranty or any covenant or obligation, and Seller will be liable for all Damages with respect to such Breaches. In no event shall such Liability exceed the Gross Consideration Cap.

Buyer shall have no Liability (for indemnification or otherwise) with respect to claims under Section 8.4(a) until the total of all Damages with respect to such matters exceeds the Deductible and then only for the amount by which such Damages exceed the Deductible. However, the limitations in this Section 8.6 will not apply to fraud or any willful or intentional Breach by Buyer of any representation or warranty or any covenant or obligation, and Buyer will be liable for all Damages with respect to such Breaches. In no event shall such liability exceed the Gross Consideration.

8.7 Time Limitations.

(a) No claim (i) under Section 8.3(a) or Section 8.4(a) shall be brought after the date that is eighteen (18) months following the Closing Date, except for (A) claims arising out of the Fundamental Warranties, which shall survive in perpetuity, (B) claims arising out of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.14 (Taxes), which shall survive until 30 days following the expiration of the statute of limitations period (including all extensions thereof) applicable to the underlying subject matter being represented, and (C) claims of which Seller has been notified in writing with reasonable specificity by Buyer, or claims of which Buyer has been notified in writing with reasonable specificity by Seller, within the aforesaid survival period applicable to the underlying claim and (ii) under Section 8.3 (other than Section 8.3(a)) shall be brought after the date that is five (5) years following the Closing Date (as applicable, the “Survival Period”).

(b) For greater clarity, nothing contained in the foregoing sentence shall prevent recovery under (i) R&W Policy after the expiration of the Survival Period, to the extent provided in the R&W Policy or (ii) this Article 8 after the expiration of the Survival Period so long as the Party making a claim or seeking recovery complies with the provisions of clause (1) and (2) of the following sentence. No Party shall have any claim or right of recovery for any Breach of a representation, warranty, covenant or agreement unless (1) written notice is given in good faith by that Party to the other Party of the Breach of the representation, warranty, covenant or agreement pursuant to which the claim is made or right of recovery is sought setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for the purported Breach, the amount or nature of the claim being made, if then ascertainable, and the general basis therefor and (2) such notice is given prior to the expiration of the Survival Period applicable to the underlying claim.

8.8 Third-Party Claims.

(a) This Section 8.8 applies to Third Party Claims (i) that are not based on Section 8.3(a), or (ii) based on Section 8.3(a) only to the extent the Deductible has been exceeded and the Cap has not been exceeded, or (iii) with respect to breaches of Fundamental Representations; provided, however, that to the extent the R&W Policy provides for a different procedures, the provisions of the R&W Policy shall control.

(b) In the event that subsequent to the Closing, any Person that is or may be entitled to indemnification under Section 8.3(a) of this Agreement (an “Indemnified Person”) either receives notice of the assertion of any claim, issuance of any Order or the commencement of any action or Proceeding or otherwise learns of an assertion of a potential claim, Order or action by any Third Party (a “Third-Party Claim”), against such Indemnified Person, against

which a Party to this Agreement is or may be required to provide indemnification under this Agreement (an “Indemnifying Person”), the Indemnified Person shall, as promptly as practicable, give written notice thereof together with a statement of any available information regarding such claim to the Indemnifying Person; provided, that if the Deductible and the Indemnification Escrow Amount have been exceeded, the defense or prosecution of any such claim brought by a Buyer Indemnified Person shall be tendered to the insurance carrier of the R&W Policy in accordance with the terms of the R&W Policy and to the extent such claim is covered by the R&W Policy. The failure to notify the Indemnifying Person will not relieve the Indemnifying Person of any Liability that it may have to any Indemnified Person, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Person demonstrates that the defense of such claim, Order or action is prejudiced by the Indemnified Person’s failure to give such notice.

(c) If any Third-Party Claim referred to in this Article 8 is brought against an Indemnified Person and such Indemnified Person gives notice to the Indemnifying Person of the commencement of such Third-Party Claim, then, subject to Section 8.8(d), the Indemnifying Person will be entitled, to the extent that it wishes, to assume and control the defense of such Third-Party Claim with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Person reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person (unless the Indemnifying Party is unable to pay such selected counsel and in such event the Indemnified Person shall be entitled to direct the defense of any such Third Party Claim). After written notice (a “Control Notice”) from the Indemnifying Person to the Indemnified Person of its election to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Person will not, as long as it diligently conducts such defense, be liable to the Indemnified Person under this Article 8 for any fees of other counsel or any other expenses with respect to the defense of such Third-Party Claim, in each case subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Person in connection with the defense of such Third-Party Claim other than the fees and expenses of the counsel selected by the Indemnifying Person; provided, that if the R&W Policy otherwise directs the defense of a Third Party Claim, the requirements of the R&W Policy shall apply to the extent such claim is covered by the R&W Policy. The Indemnifying Person will have ten (10) calendar days from receipt of a notice of a Third-Party Claim from an Indemnified Person pursuant to Section 8.8(a) to assume the defense thereof. If the Indemnifying Person does not, or is not pursuant to the preceding two sentences permitted to, assume the defense of a Proceeding, the Indemnified Person shall have the right to assume the defense and employ separate counsel to represent such Indemnified Person and the reasonable fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be paid by such Indemnifying Person. If the Indemnifying Person assumes the defense of a Third-Party Claim, no compromise or settlement of such claims may be effected by the Indemnifying Person without the Indemnified Person’s consent unless (A) there is no finding or admission of any violation of Laws by or any violation of the rights of any Person and no effect on any other claims that may be made against the Indemnified Person, and (B) the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the Indemnifying Person; and (iii) the Indemnified Person will have no Liability with respect to any compromise or settlement of such claims effected without its consent. If notice is given to an Indemnifying Person of the commencement of any Third-Party Claim and the Indemnifying Person does not, within ten (10) calendar days after the Indemnified Person’s notice is given, deliver a Control Notice to the Indemnified Person of its election to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Person will be bound by any determination made in such Third-Party Claim or any compromise or settlement effected by the Indemnified Person.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 8.8(c), if the Indemnifying Party is the Seller, then the Indemnified Party shall have the right to control and direct the defense of, and the full compromise and settlement of, any Third Party Claim; provided, however, (x) that the Indemnifying Party shall not be bound by any judgment or determination of any such Third Party Claim so defended or for any costs or expenses incurred in connection with such resolution except to the extent that Seller in its sole discretion elects to contribute to such resolution or with respect to any costs or expenses incurred in connection with such resolution, if any, and (y) that if the R&W Policy otherwise directs the defense of a Third Party Claim, the requirements of the R&W Policy shall apply to the extent such claim is covered by the R&W Policy.

(e) If the Indemnifying Person so elects, in accordance with the foregoing Section 8.8(c), to assume control of such defense, (i) the Indemnifying Person shall conduct such defense actively and diligently, and (ii) the Indemnifying Person shall keep the Indemnified Person fully advised as to the status and conduct of such defense at all stages thereof (including, for example, consulting with the Indemnified Person in good faith on matters that would reasonably be expected to adversely impact the operation of the Business).

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, but subject to the requirements of the R&W Policy, the Indemnified Person may, by giving notice to the Indemnifying Person, participate at its expense in defending, compromising, or settling such Third-Party Claim, subject to the Indemnifying Person's right to control the defense thereof, but the Indemnifying Person will not be bound by any compromise or settlement effected without its consent (which may not be unreasonably withheld); provided, however, that if in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Indemnified Person (i) there are legal defenses available to an Indemnified Person that are different from or additional

to those available to the Indemnifying Person, or (ii) there exists a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person that cannot be waived, the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Person with respect to such matters.

8.9 Procedures for Direct Claims. In the event any Indemnified Person should have a claim for indemnity against any Indemnifying Person that does not involve a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Person shall deliver notice of such claim with reasonable promptness to the Indemnifying Person. The failure by any Indemnified Person to so notify the Indemnifying Person shall not relieve the Indemnifying Person from any Liability that it may have to such Indemnified Person with respect to any claim made pursuant to Sections 8.2 or 8.4 and in accordance with this Section 8.9, it being understood that notices for claims in respect of a Breach of a representation or warranty must be delivered prior to the expiration of the Survival Period for such representation or warranty under Section 8.7. If the R&W Policy provides a different procedure than set forth in this Section 8.9, the provisions of the R&W Policy shall control.

8.10 Calculation of Damages; Treatment of Indemnity Payments.

(a) The amount of any Damages payable under this Section 8 by the Indemnifying Person shall be net of any amounts actually received by the Indemnified Person under applicable insurance policies (including, without limitation, the R&W Policy) or from any other Person alleged to be responsible therefore or pursuant to any indemnity, contribution or other similar payment by any Person with respect thereto, net of any expenses reasonably incurred in connection with the collection thereof, including deductibles and self-insured retentions. If the Indemnified Person receives any amounts under applicable insurance policies, or from any other Person alleged to be responsible for any Damages, subsequent to an indemnification payment by the Indemnifying Person, then such Indemnified Person shall promptly reimburse the Indemnifying Person for any payment made or expense incurred by such Indemnifying Person in connection with providing such indemnification payment up to the amount received by the Indemnified Person, net of any expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Person in collecting such amount (including deductibles and self-insured retentions). The Indemnified Person shall use Reasonable Efforts to collect any amounts available under such insurance coverage (other than the R&W Policy, concerning which the requirements are set forth in Section 8.2(d)(i)) or from such other Person alleged to have responsibility therefor; provided, however, that (i) doing so is commercially reasonable and (ii) such obligation shall not be a condition to, or a limitation on, indemnification rights hereunder prior to making any claim for indemnification under this Section 8. For purposes of this Article 8, “Reasonable Efforts” means the good faith efforts that a reasonably prudent Person desirous of achieving a result would use in similar circumstances to ensure that such result is achieved as reasonably expeditiously as possible (including, but not limited to, making timely, complete and accurate claims for any amounts that would reasonably be expected to be recoverable under such policy); provided, however, that the Buyer Indemnified Persons shall not be obligated to incur expenses other than reasonable costs and expenses incurred in the ordinary course in connection with the making of such claims.

(b) The Indemnifying Person shall not be liable under this Section 8 for any (i) Damages to the extent that the amount thereof, if any, was reflected in the calculation of the Adjustment Amount, as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.8, or (ii) Damages that are for special, punitive, exemplary or consequential damages (including loss of profits), except in the case of fraud or criminal or willful misconduct and except to the extent such Damages were actually awarded, paid or incurred in a Third Party Claim.

(c) Solely for purposes of calculating the amount of Damages incurred arising out of or relating to any breach of a representation or warranty (and not for purposes of determining whether or not a breach has occurred), the references to “material” or “Material Adverse Effect” shall be disregarded.

(d) The Indemnified Person shall take, and shall cause its respective Related Persons to take, all reasonable steps to mitigate and otherwise minimize their Damages to the maximum extent reasonably possible upon and after becoming aware of any event which would reasonably be expected to give rise to any Damages and an Indemnifying Person shall not be liable for any Damages to the extent that such Damages are attributable to the Indemnified Person’s failure to mitigate.

(e) If the Indemnified Person receives any payment from an Indemnifying Person in respect of any Damages and the Indemnified Person could have recovered all or a part of such Damages from a Third Party based on the underlying claim asserted against the Indemnified Person, the Indemnified Person shall assign such of its rights to proceed against such Third Party as are necessary to permit the Indemnifying Person to recover from such Third Party the amount of such indemnification payment.

(f) No Party will be obligated to indemnify a Person with respect to any claim that relates to Damages resulting from the passing of or change in any Law or any accounting policy, principle or practice (or the interpretation by any Person) after the Closing Date or any increase in Tax rates in effect on the Closing Date, even if the change or increase has retroactive effect or requires action at a future date.

(g) Any attorney, consultant, or other professional fees, costs, or expenses incurred by an Indemnified Person in connection with this Article 8 (including those incurred in connection with actions to mitigate the amount of any Damages or to recover any insurance proceeds or third party payments) will only constitute Damages indemnifiable under this Agreement to the extent that such fees, costs, or expenses are: (A) reasonable under the circumstances; (B) based solely on time actually spent by such professionals; and (C) charged at no more than such professional’s standard hourly rate.

(h) Damages arising from investigatory, corrective or remedial actions will be limited to those that are required under Environmental Law or to minimize risk to human health, which are conducted in a commercially reasonable, cost-effective manner, assuming continued use of the subject property consistent with its use at Closing and employing risk-based standards and institutional controls.

(i) The Parties agree to treat any indemnity payment under this Agreement as an adjustment to the Gross Consideration to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirement.

8.11 No Double Recovery. Notwithstanding the fact that any Party may have the right to assert claims for indemnification under or in respect of more than one provision of this Agreement or another agreement entered into in connection herewith in respect of any fact, event, condition or circumstance, no Indemnified Person shall be entitled to recover the amount of any Damages suffered by such Indemnified Person more than once under all such agreements in respect of such fact, event, condition or circumstance, and an Indemnifying Person shall not be liable for indemnification to the extent the Indemnified Person has otherwise been fully compensated on a dollar-for-dollar basis for such Damages pursuant to the Gross Consideration adjustments under Section 2.8.

8.12 Exclusion of Other Remedies. Except for the matters covered by Section 2.8 (Adjustment Procedure), the Parties agree that, from and after the Closing, the sole and exclusive remedies of the Parties for any Damages based upon, arising out of or otherwise in respect of the matters set forth in this Agreement (including representations, warranties, covenants and agreements) and the transactions contemplated hereby, whether based in contract or tort, are the indemnification and reimbursement obligations of the Parties set forth in this Section 8. The provisions of this Section ý8.12 shall not, however, prevent or limit a cause of action hereunder (a) with respect to intentional fraud or criminal or willful misconduct or (b) to obtain an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement, to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof or to obtain other equitable remedies with respect hereto.

10.4 Enforcement of Agreement. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that the other Party would be irreparably damaged if any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms and that any Breach of this Agreement could not be adequately compensated in all cases by monetary damages alone. Accordingly, in addition to any other right or remedy to which a Party may be entitled under this Agreement, at law or in equity, it shall be entitled to enforce any provision of this Agreement by a decree of specific performance and to temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief to prevent Breaches or threatened Breaches of any of the provisions of this Agreement, without posting any bond or other undertaking.

10.5 Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. The rights and remedies of the Parties provided for in this Agreement are cumulative and not alternative. Neither any failure nor any delay by any Party in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Agreement or any of the documents referred to in this Agreement will operate as a waiver of such right, power or privilege, and no single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege will preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, (a) no claim or right arising out of this Agreement or any of the documents referred to in this Agreement can be discharged by one Party, in whole or in part, by a waiver or renunciation of the claim or right unless in writing signed by the other Party; (b) no waiver that may be given by a Party will be applicable except in the specific instance for which it is given; and (c) no notice to or demand on one Party will be deemed to be a waiver of any obligation of that Party or of the right of the Party giving such notice or demand to take further action without notice or demand as provided in this Agreement or the documents referred to in this Agreement.

10.6 Entire Agreement. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements, whether written or oral, between the Parties with respect to its subject matter (including the letter of intent between an affiliate of Buyer and Seller dated July 13, 2017) and constitutes (along with the Disclosure Schedules and other documents delivered pursuant to this

Agreement) a complete and exclusive statement of the terms of the agreement between the Parties with respect to its subject matter.

10.7 Assignments, Successors and No Third-Party Rights. No Party may assign any of its rights or delegate any of its obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Parties, except that Buyer may assign its rights hereunder but shall remain obligated under this Agreement, without consent of any other Party, for collateral security purposes to any lender or lenders providing financing to Buyer or any of its Related Persons in connection with the Contemplated Transactions. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will apply to, be binding in all respects upon and inure to the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of the Parties. Nothing expressed or referred to in this Agreement will be construed to give any Person other than the Parties any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or with respect to this Agreement or any provision of this Agreement, except such rights as shall inure to a successor or permitted assignee pursuant to this Section 10.7.

10.8 Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

10.9 Construction. The headings of Sections or sub-Sections in this Agreement are provided for convenience only and will not affect its construction or interpretation. All references to “Sections” and “Schedules” refer to the corresponding Sections and Schedules of this Agreement and the Disclosure Schedules. The Parties acknowledge that they and their respective counsel have negotiated and drafted this Agreement jointly agree that no rule of strict construction shall be applied against any Person in the interpretation or construction of this Agreement.

10.10 Time of Essence. With regard to all dates and time periods set forth or referred to in this Agreement, time is of the essence.

10.11 Governing Law; WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY. All matters relating to the interpretation, construction, validity and enforcement of this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the domestic laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION IN ANY COURT WITH RESPECT TO, IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, OR THE VALIDITY, PROTECTION, INTERPRETATION, COLLECTION OR ENFORCEMENT THEREOF.

10.12 Schedules. The Schedules referred to in this Agreement shall be construed with and as an integral part of this Agreement to the same extent as if the same had been set forth in their entirety herein. It is understood and agreed that the specification of any dollar amount in the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or the inclusion of any specific item in the Schedules is not intended to imply that such amounts or higher or lower amounts, or the items so included or other items, are or are not material. All Schedules attached hereto or referred to herein are hereby incorporated in and made a part of this Agreement as if set forth in full herein.

10.13 Amendments and Waivers. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be valid unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Parties. Neither the failure nor any delay by any Party in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Agreement will operate as a waiver of such right, power or privilege. No waiver of any provision hereunder or any breach or default thereof shall extend to or affect in any way any other provision or prior or subsequent breach or default.

10.14 Time Periods. Unless specified otherwise, any action required hereunder to be taken within a certain number of days shall be taken within that number of calendar days (and not Business Days); provided, however, that if the last day for taking such action falls on a weekend or bank holiday in the United States, the period during which such action may be taken shall be automatically extended to the next Business Day.

10.15 Execution of Agreement. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed to be an original copy of this Agreement and all of which, when taken together, will be deemed to constitute one and the same agreement. Any Party may execute this Agreement by electronic signature (including facsimile or scanned email), and the other Parties will be entitled to rely on such signature as conclusive evidence that this Agreement has been duly executed by such Party.

10.16 Records. Prior to Closing, the Seller may remove from its records all communications and attorney-client work product relating to this Agreement, the Contemplated Transactions and the facts and circumstances relating to them, and all preliminary transaction documents and data generated prior to the commencement of negotiations with Purchaser; provided, however, that the Seller or Owner shall cause such records to be preserved for a period of no less than seven (7) years after the Closing (the “Record Retention Period”), and before removing any such records, but in no event later than fourteen (14) days following the removal of such records, the Representative shall have certified to Purchaser in writing the following information: (a) the identity of the vendor who will be performing the search and removal of such records; (b) the search terms and removal parameters or criteria to be used by such vendor; (c) the estimated number of documents and volume of data to be removed, and (d) the identity of the proposed custodian of the removed records for the Record Retention Period. At the Closing, the Representative shall have provided to Purchaser a written update of the number of documents and volume of data removed and the telephone number of the custodian of any removed records for the Record Retention Period.
