THIS PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made as of June 18, 2010, by and among (i) Regency Hospital Company, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”), (ii) each of Waud Capital Partners, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, Waud Capital Partners, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company, Waud Capital Affiliates, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, Waud Realty — Minneapolis LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, The Mecklenburg Grantor Trust, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, and ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ (each, a “Seller” and, collectively, the “Sellers”), (iii) Waud Capital Partners, L.L.C., solely in its capacity as representative of the Sellers as set forth in this Agreement (the “Representative”), (iv) Intensiva Healthcare Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Buyer”), and (v) solely for purposes of Section 11U, Select Medical Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Guarantor”). Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used herein are defined in Exhibit A.

WHEREAS, the Sellers own collectively 100% of the issued and outstanding equity securities of the Company, consisting of WRLLC Units, Special Units, Preferred Units, Class A Units and Class B Units of the Company (collectively, the “Acquired Securities”);

WHEREAS, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, Buyer desires to purchase from the Sellers, and the Sellers desire to sell to Buyer, all of the Acquired Securities for the consideration described herein; and

WHEREAS, the respective boards of managers or directors or other governing bodies, as applicable, of each Seller, the Company and Buyer have approved this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual representations, warranties and covenants herein contained, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE 1

PURCHASE AND SALE

1A. Purchase and Sale of Acquired Securities. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Closing and upon payment of the Estimated Purchase Price and the delivery of the other amounts by Buyer in accordance with Section 1C, Buyer shall purchase and accept from the Sellers, and the Sellers shall sell to Buyer, free and clear of all Liens (other than Permitted Encumbrances of the type described in clause (i) of the definition thereof or Liens created by Buyer), all of the Acquired Securities.

1B. Closing. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the closing of the purchase and sale of the Acquired Securities (the “Closing”) shall take place, and the parties hereto shall consummate such purchase and sale, at the Chicago, Illinois offices of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇ LLP on the fifth (5th) Business Day after satisfaction or waiver of the latest to occur of the conditions set forth in Article 2, except for those conditions which by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions at the Closing, unless the parties shall mutually agree on another date. The date on which the Closing shall occur is referred to herein as the “Closing Date.” At the Closing, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, Buyer shall make the payments and deliveries contemplated by Section 1C and deliver to the Representative all of the certificates, instruments and documents required to be delivered by Buyer under Section 2C in

order for the conditions of each of the Sellers and the Company to be satisfied, and the Representative shall deliver to Buyer all of the certificates, instruments and documents required to be delivered under Section 2B in order for the conditions of Buyer to be satisfied.

1C. Closing Distributions.

(i) No later than three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing, the Company shall provide Buyer with a statement setting forth its good faith estimate (which estimate shall be reasonably satisfactory to Buyer) of (i) the Estimated Closing Indebtedness, (ii) the Estimated Closing Net Working Capital, and (iii) the Estimated Purchase Price resulting therefrom (the “Estimated Closing Statement”), together with an estimated balance sheet of the Company and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, as of the Adjustment Calculation Time (the “Estimated Closing Balance Sheet”) (accompanied by any supporting work papers and other similar material used by the Company to prepare the Estimated Closing Statement and the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet).

(ii) At the Closing, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, Buyer shall pay to the Representative (on behalf of the Sellers) an aggregate amount in cash (the “Closing Cash Payment”) equal to (x) the Estimated Purchase Price less (y) the Escrow Deposit Amount, by wire transfer of immediately available funds from Buyer to the account designated by the Representative (which account shall be designated by the Representative in writing at least three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date). The Closing Cash Payment shall be allocated among the Sellers, and distributed to the Sellers by the Representative, in accordance with written instructions which shall be delivered to Buyer not less than one (1) Business Day prior to the Closing.

(iii) At the Closing, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, Buyer shall deliver, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, the Escrow Deposit Amount to the Escrow Agent for deposit into a separate escrow account (the “Escrow Account”) established pursuant to the terms of an escrow agreement, substantially in the form of Exhibit B (the “Escrow Agreement”), among Buyer, the Representative and the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Funds shall be maintained separately in the Escrow Account. The fees and expenses of the Escrow Agent shall be paid 50% by Buyer and 50% by the Representative (on behalf of the Sellers). The Escrow Account will be divided into the following two sub-accounts:

(a) An aggregate amount in cash equal to the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Amount shall be deposited into a separate subaccount (the “Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Account”). The Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Amount shall be distributed in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement.

(b) An aggregate amount in cash equal to the General Escrow Amount shall be deposited into a separate subaccount (the “General Escrow Account”). The General Escrow Amount shall be distributed in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement.

(iv) At the Closing, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, Buyer shall pay to the intended beneficiaries thereof (as identified by the Representative to Buyer at least three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date) (a) amounts due and owing pursuant to the Funded Indebtedness, (b) the Company Transaction Expenses, (c) the Representative Expenses, and (d) any other liabilities included in the computation of

Estimated Closing Indebtedness (other than the Ohio Matter Payoff Amount) which Representative instructs Buyer to pay at the Closing.

1D. Purchase Price Adjustment.

(i) Within 120 days following the Closing Date, the Company shall, and Buyer shall cause the Company to, prepare and deliver to the Representative (a) an unaudited consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of the Adjustment Calculation Time (the “Closing Balance Sheet”), and (b) a statement (the “Closing Statement”) setting forth the Company’s calculation of Closing Net Working Capital and Closing Indebtedness and the Purchase Price resulting therefrom. The Closing Balance Sheet shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a basis consistent with the Applicable Accounting Principles. The Closing Statement shall, with respect to the Closing Net Working Capital and the Closing Indebtedness, be derived from the Closing Balance Sheet, and shall, with respect to the Closing Net Working Capital and the Closing Indebtedness, be prepared in accordance with the applicable definitions set forth in this Agreement. During the 30 days immediately following the Representative’s receipt of the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Statement and any period of dispute with respect thereto thereafter, Buyer shall, and shall cause the Company to, (x) provide the Representative and its representatives with reasonable access during normal business hours to the books, records (including work papers, schedules, memoranda and other documents), supporting data and employees and accountants (subject to signing a customary accountant’s release) of the Company related to the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Statement for purposes of their review of the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Statement, and (y) cooperate with the Representative and its representatives in connection with such review, including providing on a timely basis all other information necessary or useful in connection with the review of the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Statement as is reasonably requested by the Representative or its representatives. The Closing Balance Sheet, the Closing Statement and the resulting calculation of Closing Net Working Capital and Closing Indebtedness and the Purchase Price resulting therefrom shall become final and binding upon the parties at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Prevailing Time on the 30th day following the Representative’s receipt thereof unless the Representative gives written notice of its disagreement (a “Notice of Disagreement”) to Buyer prior to such date; provided that the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Statement shall become final and binding after such 30 day period with respect to any items not relating to the dispute identified in a Notice of Disagreement; provided further that a Notice of Disagreement may only be based on a claim that the Closing Balance Sheet (or the Closing Statement or the components thereof) was not prepared in accordance, or is otherwise inconsistent, with the terms of this Agreement; provided further that the Closing Balance Sheet, the Closing Statement and the resulting calculation of Closing Net Working Capital and Closing Indebtedness and the Purchase Price resulting therefrom shall become final and binding upon the parties upon the Representative’s delivery, prior to the expiration of the 30-day period, of written notice to Buyer of its acceptance of the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Statement. Any Notice of Disagreement shall specify in reasonable detail the nature and amount of any disagreement so asserted, and shall specify the line item or items on the Closing Balance Sheet (or the Closing Statement, as applicable) which the Representative disagrees with and the amount of each such line item or items as calculated by the Representative.

(ii) If a timely Notice of Disagreement is delivered by the Representative pursuant to Section 1D(i), then the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Statement (as revised in accordance with this Section 1D(ii)), and the resulting calculation of Closing Net Working Capital and Closing Indebtedness and the Purchase Price resulting therefrom, shall become final and binding upon the parties on the earlier of (a) the date any and all matters specified in the

Notice of Disagreement are finally resolved in writing by the Representative and Buyer and (b) the date any and all matters specified in the Notice of Disagreement not resolved by the Representative and Buyer are finally resolved in writing by the Arbiter (as defined below). The Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Statement shall be revised to the extent necessary to reflect any resolution by the Representative and Buyer and any final resolution made by the Arbiter in accordance with this Section 1D(ii). During the 30 days immediately following the delivery of a Notice of Disagreement or such longer period as the Representative and Buyer may agree in writing, the Representative and Buyer shall seek in good faith to resolve in writing any differences which they may have with respect to any matter specified in the Notice of Disagreement, and all such discussions related thereto shall (unless otherwise agreed by Buyer and the Representative) be governed by Rule 408 of the Federal Rules of Evidence and any applicable similar state rule. At the end of such 30-day period, the Representative and Buyer shall submit to KPMG LLP (the “Arbiter”) for review and resolution of any and all matters (but only such matters) which remain in dispute and which were included in the Notice of Disagreement, and if KPMG LLP is unwilling or unable to act in such capacity (or is conflicted), then the Representative and Buyer shall attempt to mutually agree on who shall serve as the Arbiter, and if the Representative and Buyer cannot agree upon the Arbiter within ten (10) Business Days after KPMG LLP has given notice that it will not serve as Arbiter, then the Representative and Buyer shall each select, within five days of the end of such 10-day period, a nationally recognized consulting or accounting firm with expertise in financial analysis and the firm selected by the Representative and the firm selected by Buyer shall mutually and promptly (and in any event within five days) select a third nationally recognized consulting or accounting firm with expertise in financial analysis to serve as the Arbiter. Buyer and the Representative shall instruct the Arbiter to, and the Arbiter shall, make a final determination of the items included in the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Statement (to the extent such amounts are in dispute) in accordance with the requirements and procedures set forth in this Agreement. Buyer and the Representative will cooperate (and Buyer shall cause the Company to cooperate) with the Arbiter during the term of its engagement. Buyer and the Representative shall instruct the Arbiter not to, and the Arbiter shall not, assign a value to any item in dispute greater than the greatest value for such item assigned by Buyer, on the one hand, or the Representative, on the other hand, or less than the smallest value for such item assigned by Buyer, on the one hand, or the Representative, on the other hand. Buyer and the Representative shall also instruct the Arbiter to, and the Arbiter shall, make its determination based solely on presentations by Buyer and the Representative that are in accordance with the guidelines and procedures set forth in this Agreement (i.e., not on the basis of an independent review). The Closing Balance Sheet, the Closing Statement and the resulting calculation of Closing Net Working Capital and Closing Indebtedness and the Purchase Price resulting therefrom shall become final and binding on the parties hereto on the date the Arbiter delivers its final resolution in writing to Buyer and the Representative (which final resolution shall be requested by the terms of the engagement with the Arbiter to be not more than 30 days from the date of such engagement and no more than 10 Business Days from the final submission of information and testimony by Buyer and Representative to the Arbiter), and such resolution by the Arbiter shall not be subject to court review or otherwise appealable but shall be enforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction. The fees and expenses of the Arbiter pursuant to this Section 1D(ii) shall be borne by Buyer, on the one hand, and the Representative, on the other hand, based upon the percentage which the aggregate portion of the contested amount not awarded to each party bears to the aggregate amount actually contested by such party.

(iii) If the Estimated Purchase Price is less than the Purchase Price (such shortfall, the “Deficit Amount”), then within five (5) Business Days after the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Statement become final and binding on the parties pursuant to this Section 1D, (a) Buyer shall make payment of the Deficit Amount by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the

Representative (on behalf of the Sellers) and (b) Buyer and the Representative shall deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent to cause the Escrow Agent to immediately make payment to, or as directed by, the Representative of an amount equal to the entire amount in the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Account. If the Estimated Purchase Price is greater than the Purchase Price (such excess, the “Excess Amount”), then within five (5) Business Days after the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Statement become final and binding on the parties pursuant to this Section 1D, Buyer and the Representative shall deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent to cause the Escrow Agent to immediately make payments in the following order: (x) first, to Buyer, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to, or as directed by, Buyer, an amount equal to the Excess Amount from the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Account (and to the extent there are not sufficient funds in the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Account, from the General Escrow Account), and (y) second, to the Representative, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to, or as directed by, the Representative, an amount equal to the entire amount then remaining in the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Account (if any) after Buyer has first received payment in accordance with clause (x) above.

(iv) Any payment pursuant to Section 1D(iii) shall be made together with interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the rate of interest published by The Wall Street Journal as the “prime rate” at large U.S. money center banks on the Closing Date, calculated on the basis of the number of days elapsed from the Closing Date to the date of payment. Any interest payable by Buyer shall be paid to the Representative.

(v) Subject to Section 10I, any amounts received by the Representative pursuant to this Section 1D shall be received for the benefit of the Sellers.

(vi) Buyer and the Sellers agree that (a) the payment of the Excess Amount (if any) from the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Account and, if applicable, the General Escrow Account as provided in Section 1D(iii) shall be the sole and exclusive remedy for Buyer for payment of the Excess Amount (if any) and (b) the working capital adjustment and indebtedness adjustment provided for in this Section 1D, and the dispute resolution provisions provided for in this Section 1D, shall be the exclusive remedies for the matters addressed therein. For the avoidance of doubt, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no claim by Buyer for the payment of the Excess Amount shall be asserted against the Seller Parties.

1E. Purchase Price Allocation. The Purchase Price (as adjusted pursuant to this Agreement and as increased by the amounts treated as assumed Company liabilities for federal income tax purposes and other amounts treated as taxable sales consideration for federal income tax purposes) shall be allocated to the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries (other than the assets of the Partnership Subsidiaries and Regency Management Company, Inc.) for all Tax purposes in accordance with their respective fair market values pursuant to an allocation schedule to be prepared after the Closing in accordance with Sections 1060, 741, and 751 of the Code and the regulations adopted thereunder and using the methodologies set forth on Schedule 1E (the “Asset Allocation”). Within 120 days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall deliver a copy of its initial determination of the Asset Allocation to the Representative. The Representative shall, within 30 days after receipt of the initial determination of the Asset Allocation by Buyer, notify Buyer if it disagrees with such initial determination (provided that Representative shall not disagree with any allocation to the stock of Regency Management Company, Inc. determined by Buyer to be equal to the adjusted tax basis of the assets less any liabilities of such entity as of the Closing Date), and if the Representative does not so notify Buyer within such 30 days, the initial Asset Allocation shall be final and binding on the parties. If the Representative disagrees with such initial Asset Allocation (subject to the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence), Buyer and the Representative shall make a good faith effort to resolve the dispute. If Buyer and the Representative have

been unable to resolve their differences within 30 days after Buyer has been notified of the Representative’s disagreement with the initial Asset Allocation, then any remaining disputed issues shall be submitted to the Arbiter, who shall resolve the disagreement in a final binding manner in accordance with the dispute resolution procedures set forth in Section 1D(ii) of this Agreement. Except as may be required by applicable Legal Requirements, Buyer and the Representative on behalf of the Sellers will (i) prepare all Tax books, records, and filings (including Internal Revenue Service Forms 8594 and 8308) in a manner consistent with the Asset Allocation (as determined pursuant to this Section 1E) and (ii) not take any action inconsistent therewith with respect to Tax matters.

From and after the Closing (but subject to the provisions of this Article 9 (including the exclusive remedy and sole source of recovery provisions of Section 9C(i) and Section 9D)), the Sellers (on a pro rata basis (based on consideration received and not jointly)) shall, subject to Section 9C, indemnify the Buyer Parties against, and hold harmless the Buyer Parties from, any and all Losses (regardless of whether or not such Losses relate to any Third Party Claim) resulting from or relating to (i) the failure of any representation or warranty of the Sellers or the Company contained in this Agreement or in any Certificate (other than the Buyer Closing Certificate and the Buyer Secretary Certificate) to be true and correct as of the date of this Agreement or as of the Closing Date as if made anew as of such date, (ii) any breach of any covenant of the Sellers contained in this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement, or any breach of any covenant of the Company contained in this Agreement requiring performance prior to or at the Closing, (iii) (A) any amount actually received or recorded by the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company prior to the Closing Date (or that was considered a current asset of the Company or its Subsidiaries for purposes of the calculation of Closing Net Working Capital) to the extent such amount is deemed an overpayment due to adjustments (other than Outlier Adjustments) made by a Governmental Entity after the Closing Date to the cost reports of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company with respect to periods prior to the Closing Date and (B) any amount actually received or recorded by the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company prior to the Closing Date (or that was considered a current asset of the Company or its Subsidiaries for purposes of the calculation of Closing Net Working Capital) to the extent such amount is deemed an overpayment by a third party payor other than due to adjustments made to the cost reports filed by or on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company on or prior to the Closing Date and, in each case for purposes of this Section 9A(iii) to the extent an amount for such specific liability was not reflected as a current liability or contra-asset of the Company or its Subsidiaries for purposes of the calculation of Closing Net Working Capital; (iv) (A) any failure by the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company prior to the Closing Date to comply with Legal Requirements related to third party payor programs sponsored by Governmental Entities, including compliance with all Medicare and/or Medicaid Legal Requirements (other than with respect to Outlier Adjustments), (B) any failure by the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company prior to the Closing Date to comply with payment policies related to non-governmental third party payor programs, and (C) any failure by the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company prior to the Closing Date to comply with state health care Legal Requirements, including state facility and professional licensure and certificate of need Legal Requirements, in each case for purposes of this Section 9A(iv) to the extent the amount of any Losses resulting from or relating to any such specific failure was not reflected as a current liability or contra-asset of the Company or its Subsidiaries for purposes of the calculation of Closing Net Working Capital; (v) Pre-Closing Taxes; (vi) the leases set forth on Section 2B(x) of the Company Disclosure Letter or the Subsidiaries of the Company which are parties to the leases set forth on Section 2B(x) of the Company Disclosure Letter; (vii) the minority partners of the Subsidiary of the Company set forth on Section 2B(xiii) of the Company Disclosure Letter and any repurchase or redemption of their interests; and (viii) any fraud committed by the Company or its officers or directors.

9B. Indemnification by Buyer. From and after the Closing (but subject to the provisions of this Article 9), Buyer shall indemnify the Seller Parties against, and hold harmless the Seller Parties from, any and all Losses resulting from or relating to (i) the failure of any representation or warranty of Buyer contained in this Agreement, or in the Buyer Closing Certificate or the Buyer Secretary Certificate, to be true and correct as of the date of this Agreement or as of the Closing Date as if made anew as of such date, or (ii) any breach of any covenant or agreement of Buyer contained in this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement, and any breach of any covenant or agreement of the Company contained in this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement requiring performance after the Closing.

9C. Claims against the General Escrow Amount.

(i) Following the Closing, the Buyer Parties’ sole and exclusive remedy and source of recovery for any Losses (other than Losses resulting from or relating to any breach of the Fundamental Representations or of a covenant of any Seller requiring performance after the Closing, or in respect of claims pursuant to Section 9A(vi), Section 9A(vii) or Section 9A(viii) or claims for fraud (collectively, “Direct Claims”)) is the portion of the General Escrow Amount remaining at any given time in the General Escrow Account. Following the Closing, except for Direct Claims, which may be asserted directly against any Seller Party, no claim by Buyer for Losses under this Agreement or otherwise shall be asserted directly against the Seller Parties or any of them. Subject to the provisions of this Article 9 (including the pro rata nature of the indemnity obligations hereunder), following the Closing, Buyer shall only be entitled to assert claims directly against any or all of the Sellers in respect of any Losses resulting from or relating to any Direct Claims, and a Buyer Party may at its option and in its sole discretion, in addition to any other remedies available to it, also assert such Direct Claims against the portion of the General Escrow Amount then remaining in the General Escrow Account.

(ii) Within two (2) Business Days after the date that is 12 months following the Closing Date (such date that is twelve months following the Closing Date, the “General Survival Date”), Buyer and the Representative shall cause the Escrow Agent (including by delivering joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent) to release to, or as directed by, the Representative an amount in cash equal to $5,000,000 minus the sum of (a) the amount for which claims for indemnification were made against the General Escrow Account prior to the General Survival Date in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and that are not yet resolved as of the General Survival Date (the “Claim Amount”) and (b) the amount paid out of the General Escrow Account to any Buyer Party prior to the General Survival Date. At any time after the General Survival Date, within five (5) Business Days after Buyer determines that all or any portion of the Claim Amount is not owed to Buyer hereunder, or a court of competent jurisdiction finally determines, that a Buyer Party is not entitled to all or a portion of the Claim Amount, Buyer and the Representative shall cause the Escrow Agent (including by delivering joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent) to release to, or as directed by, the Representative on behalf of the Sellers such portion of the Claim Amount that the Sellers would otherwise have been entitled to receive on the General Survival Date; provided, that no such amount shall be released from the General Escrow Account upon such determination in the event that there are not sufficient funds remaining in the General Escrow Account to cover any Extended Claim Amount.

(iii) Within two (2) Business Days after the date that is 18 months following the Closing Date (such date that is eighteen months following the Closing Date, the “Extended Survival Date”), Buyer and the Representative shall cause the Escrow Agent (including by delivering joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent) to release to, or as directed by, the Representative an amount in cash equal to (a) all remaining Escrow Funds in the General Escrow Account, minus (b) the amount for which claims for indemnification were made against the

General Escrow Account prior to the Extended Survival Date (including any Claim Amount) (the “Extended Claim Amount”) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and that are not yet resolved as of the Extended Survival Date. At any time after the Extended Survival Date, within five (5) Business Days after Buyer determines that all or any portion of the Extended Claim Amount is not owed to Buyer hereunder, or a court of competent jurisdiction finally determines, that a Buyer Party is not entitled to all or a portion of the Extended Claim Amount, Buyer and the Representative shall cause the Escrow Agent (including by delivering joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent) to release to the Representative on behalf of the Sellers such portion of the Extended Claim Amount.

(iv) In the event that Buyer Parties make a claim for indemnification hereunder and (a) the Representative agrees with such claim in whole or in part or (b) a court of competent jurisdiction finally determines that the Buyer Parties are entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, the Representative and Buyer shall, no later than five (5) Business Days thereafter cause the Escrow Agent (including by delivering joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent) to release to, or as directed by, Buyer from the General Escrow Account the amount to which Buyer is entitled hereunder.

(v) Subject to Section 10I, any amounts received by the Representative pursuant to this Section 9C shall be received for the benefit of all Sellers.

9D. Exclusive Remedy. Each party acknowledges and agrees that, from and after the Closing (except for actions seeking specific performance or similar equitable relief pursuant to Section 11Q, disputes under Section 1D, which disputes will be resolved in accordance with the dispute mechanism set forth in Section 1D, and fraud claims), its sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all rights, claims and causes of action it may have against any Indemnifying Party or any Seller Parties relating to the operation of the Company or its Subsidiaries or their respective businesses, or resulting from or relating to the subject matter of this Agreement and the Company Disclosure Letter and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, whether arising under or based upon any Legal Requirements or otherwise (including any right, whether arising at law or in equity, to seek indemnification, contribution, cost recovery, damages, or any other recourse or remedy, including as may arise under common law), shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article 9. In furtherance of the foregoing, each of Buyer (on its own behalf and on behalf of the other Buyer Parties), the Sellers (each on his, her or its own behalf and on behalf of the other Seller Parties who are not signatories hereto) and the Company hereby (x) covenants and agrees that (other than as provided in the first sentence of this Section 9D), from and after the Closing, he, she or it will not, directly or indirectly, assert or otherwise bring any claim, cause of action or demand, or commence or institute or cause to be commenced or instituted, any proceeding of any kind or nature relating to the operation of the Company or its Subsidiaries or their respective businesses, or resulting from or relating to the subject matter of this Agreement and the Company Disclosure Letter and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, whether arising under or based upon any Legal Requirements or otherwise (including any right, whether arising at law or in equity, to seek indemnification, contribution, cost recovery, damages, or any other recourse or remedy, including as may arise under common law), other than pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article 9, and (y) waives, from and after the Closing, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Legal Requirements, any and all rights, claims and causes of action it may have against any Indemnifying Party or any Seller Parties relating to the operation of the Company or its Subsidiaries or their respective businesses or relating to the subject matter of this Agreement and the Company Disclosure Letter and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, whether arising under or based upon any Legal Requirements or otherwise (including any right, whether arising at law or in equity, to seek indemnification, contribution, cost recovery, damages, or any other

recourse or remedy, including as may arise under common law) other than as provided in the first sentence of this Section 9D.

9E. Termination of Indemnification. Subject to the final sentence of this Section 9E, the obligations under Sections 9A(i), 9A(ii), 9B(i) and 9B(ii) shall terminate when the applicable representation or warranty or covenant terminates pursuant to Section 10A; provided, however, that such obligations shall not terminate with respect to any item as to which the Person to be indemnified shall have, prior to the applicable Limitation Date, previously made a claim by delivering a written notice to the Indemnifying Party meeting the requirements set forth in Section 10A. Subject to the final sentence of this Section 9E, the obligations under Sections 9A(iii), 9A(iv) and 9A(v) shall terminate on the Extended Survival Date; provided, however, that such obligations shall not terminate with respect to any item as to which the Person to be indemnified shall have, on or prior to the Extended Survival Date, previously made a claim by delivering a written notice to the Indemnifying Party meeting the requirements set forth in Section 10A. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, unless earlier terminated in accordance with this Agreement, all obligations under Section 9A (other than obligations in respect of Direct Claims) shall terminate at such time as the General Escrow Amount has been disbursed from the General Escrow Account (it being understood that such time could be before the General Survival Date and the Extended Survival Date).

9F. Procedures Relating to Indemnification.

(i) In order for a Person that has rights of indemnification under this Agreement (each, an “Indemnified Party”) to be entitled to any indemnification provided for under this Agreement in respect of a claim or demand made by any Person (other than an Indemnified Party) against the Indemnified Party (a “Third Party Claim”), such Indemnified Party must notify the indemnifying party (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing (and setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for such Indemnified Party’s belief that such right to indemnification may exist to the extent known) of the Third Party Claim within ten (10) Business Days after receipt by such Indemnified Party of notice of the Third Party Claim; provided, that failure to give such notification on a timely basis shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except to the extent the Indemnifying Party shall have been prejudiced as a result of such failure; provided, further, that for purposes of making claims against the Escrow Amount (or the Sellers in respect of Direct Claims), written notice to the Representative shall be deemed written notice to the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Section 9F(i). Thereafter, the Indemnified Party shall deliver to the Indemnifying Party, within five (5) Business Days after the Indemnified Party’s receipt thereof, copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnified Party relating to the Third Party Claim; provided, that failure to deliver such notices and documents on a timely basis shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except to the extent the Indemnifying Party shall have been actually prejudiced as a result of such failure.

(ii) If a Third Party Claim is made against an Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense thereof and, if it elects, to control the defense thereof, in each case at its own expense, with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party and reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party; provided, that notice of the intention to so control the defense shall be delivered by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party within twenty (20) days after the date of receipt by the Indemnifying Party of notice by the Indemnified Party of the assertion of the Third Party Claim; provided, further, that the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to control the defense only if (a) the claim does not seek equitable relief or, if the claim does seek equitable relief, such claim for equitable relief is merely incidental to a claim for monetary relief, (b) the Indemnifying Party verifies in writing to the Indemnified Party its obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party hereunder against Losses that may result from such

Third Party Claim, subject in all respects to the provisions of this Article 9, (c) (x) in the case of claims in respect of Section 9A(i) (other than in respect of any Fundamental Representations), Section 9A(iii), Section 9A(iv) or Section 9A(v), there are sufficient funds remaining in the General Escrow Account to satisfy any obligation to provide such indemnification to the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party Claim along with any and all other pending indemnification claims in respect of such Sections of this Agreement, and (y) in the case of claims in respect of the Fundamental Representations, Section 9A(ii), Section 9A(vi), Section 9A(vii) or Section 9A(viii), the Indemnifying Party can reasonably demonstrate that it has the funds necessary to satisfy any obligation to provide such indemnification to the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party Claim along with any and all other pending indemnification claims in respect of such Sections of this Agreement, and (d) in the case of claims in respect of Section 9A(i), Section 9A(iii), Section 9A(iv) or for any breach of any covenant or agreement contained in ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇ ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 3H, if the amount of such Third Party Claim exceeds 150% of the amount of any remaining deductible that is applicable under Section 9G(ii)(a), Section 9G(ii)(b) or Section 9G(ii)(c) (the foregoing collectively, the “Litigation Conditions”); provided, further, that the Indemnifying Party shall forfeit the right to control the defense of any such claim if, at any time after assuming the defense or settlement thereof, the Indemnifying Party no longer satisfies the Litigation Conditions or fails to diligently contest, defend or litigate such claims in good faith. Should an Indemnifying Party elect to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for legal expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof unless (i) the Indemnifying Party has not employed counsel to assume the defense of such action within a reasonable time after receiving notice of the commencement of the action, (ii) the employment of counsel and the amount reimbursable therefor by the Indemnified Party has been authorized in writing by the Indemnifying Party or (iii) representation of the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party by the same counsel would, in the reasonable opinion of the counsel employed by the Indemnifying Party, constitute a conflict of interest under applicable standards of professional conduct. If the Indemnifying Party assumes such defense, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense thereof and to employ counsel, at its own expense (subject to the previous sentence), separate from the counsel employed by the Indemnifying Party, it being understood, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall control such defense so long as the Indemnifying Party continues to have the right to control such defense in accordance with this Section 9F(ii). All the parties hereto shall cooperate in the defense or prosecution of a Third Party Claim. Such cooperation shall include the retention and provision to the party controlling the defense (upon the request of such controlling party) to records and information which are 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 Indemnifying Party shall be obligated to reimburse Indemnified Party for the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses related to such cooperation. The Indemnifying Party shall have full authority to determine all action to be taken with respect to a Third Party Claim the defense of which it has elected to assume in accordance with this Section 9F(ii); provided, however, that that the Indemnifying Party shall obtain the prior written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) of the Indemnified Party prior to admitting any liability with respect to, consenting to the entry of any judgment, or settling, compromising or discharging any Third Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party does not elect to assume the control of the defense of any such Third Party Claim, fails to notify the Indemnified Party of its election as herein provided, fails to satisfy the Litigation Conditions or fails to diligently contest, defend or litigate such Third Party Claim in good faith, the Indemnified Party may pay, compromise or defend such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party shall obtain the prior written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or

delayed) of the Indemnifying Party prior to admitting any liability with respect to, consenting to the entry of any judgment, or settling, compromising or discharging any Third Party Claim.

9G. Certain Additional Matters.

(i) The amount of any and all Losses under this Article 9 shall be determined net of the amount of any proceeds actually received by an Indemnified Party or any of such Indemnified Party’s Affiliates under or pursuant to any insurance policy, title insurance policy, indemnity, reimbursement arrangement or contract pursuant to which or under which such Indemnified Party or such Indemnified Party’s Affiliates is a party or has rights (collectively, “Alternative Arrangements”) (net of (i) any increase in premiums, (ii) retroactive premiums, (iii) premium adjustments, or (iv) any deductible incurred in obtaining such proceeds). If the Indemnified Party receives any such proceeds subsequent to an indemnification payment by the Indemnifying Party in respect of any Losses, then such Indemnified Party shall promptly reimburse the Indemnifying Party in an amount equal to the amount by which such indemnification payment would have been reduced had such proceeds been received by the Indemnified Party prior to such payment by the Indemnifying Party.

(ii)

(a) No Buyer Party shall be entitled to indemnification or other recovery pursuant to Section 9A(i) or for any breach of any covenant or agreement contained in Section 3F, Section 3G or Section 3H unless and until the aggregate amount of all Losses under Section 9A(i), Section 9A(iii), Section 9A(iv) and for any breach of any covenant or agreement contained in Section 3F, Section 3G or Section 3H (other than Losses (x) resulting from or relating to breaches of Fundamental Representations or Section 5E(v), for which no such limitation shall apply, or (y) that have been recovered by a Buyer Party pursuant to Section 9A(iii) or Section 9A(iv)) exceeds on a cumulative basis an amount equal to $1,400,000, and then, such Buyer Party shall only be entitled to recover to the extent of such excess (subject to Section 9C(i)); provided, however, that the limitations set forth in this Section 9G(ii)(a) shall not apply to claims arising from breaches of Fundamental Representations or Section 5E(v).

(b) No Buyer Party shall be entitled to indemnification or other recovery pursuant to Section 9A(iii), unless and until the aggregate amount of all Losses under Section 9A(iii) exceeds on a cumulative basis an amount equal to $250,000, and then such Buyer Party shall only be entitled to recover to the extent of such excess (subject to Section 9C(i)).

(c) No Buyer Party shall be entitled to indemnification or other recovery pursuant to Section 9A(iv), unless and until the aggregate amount of all Losses under Section 9A(iv) exceeds on a cumulative basis an amount equal to $250,000, and then such Buyer Party shall only be entitled to recover to the extent of such excess (subject to Section 9C(i)).

(d) No Buyer Party shall assert any claim or series of related claims whatsoever pursuant to Section 9A (except for a breach of Section 5E(v)), and no Buyer Party shall be entitled to indemnification or other recovery whatsoever pursuant to Section 9A (except for a breach of Section 5E(v)), for any Losses resulting from, or arising out of any Outlier Adjustment.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (1) the aggregate cumulative liability of a Seller under this Article 9 shall in no event exceed the aggregate proceeds actually received by such Seller and (2) no Indemnified Party shall be entitled to recover any amount under this Article 9 more than once in respect of the same Loss.

(iii) No Seller Party shall assert any claim or series of related claims pursuant to Section 9B(i), and no Seller Party shall be entitled to indemnification or other recovery pursuant to Section 9B(i), unless and until the aggregate amount of all Losses under Section 9B(i) (other than Losses resulting from or relating to breaches of Fundamental Representations) exceeds on a cumulative basis an amount equal to $1,400,000, and then such Indemnified Party shall only be entitled to recover to the extent of such excess (subject to Section 9C(i)); provided, however, that the foregoing limitation shall not apply to claims arising from breaches of Fundamental Representations.

(iv) In no event shall any Indemnified Party be entitled to recover or make a claim for any amounts in respect of, and in no event shall “Losses” be deemed to include punitive or exemplary damages (except to the extent imposed on an Indemnified Party in connection with a Third Party Claim) or any Losses to the extent included as a liability in the calculation of Closing Net Working Capital or Closing Indebtedness.

(v) For purposes of determining whether there has been a breach of any representation or warranty of the Company, the Sellers or Buyer in this Agreement or in any Certificate and for purposes of calculating the amount of Losses to which an Indemnified Party is entitled as a result of any such breach, such representation or warranty shall not be deemed qualified by any “material,” “materiality,” “Buyer Material Adverse Effect” or “Company Material Adverse Effect” qualifications; provided, however, that this Section 9G(v) shall not apply to the representations and warranties set forth in the first sentence of Section 5A, the third sentence of Section 5C(i), Section 5E(i), Section 5G, Section 5J and the first sentence of Section 5T(i).

(vi) The representations and warranties of the parties shall not be affected or diminished by, and no right of indemnification hereunder shall be limited by reason of any investigation or audit conducted before or after the Closing or the knowledge of any party of any breach of a representation, warranty, covenant or agreement by the other party at any time, or the decision of any party to complete the Closing.

(vii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, no limitation or condition of liability or indemnity shall apply to any fraud claims.

(viii) Any indemnity payment under this Agreement shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes unless not permitted by applicable Legal Requirements.

(ix) Each Seller waives, and acknowledges and agrees that such Seller shall not have and shall not exercise or assert (or attempt to exercise or assert), any right of contribution, right of indemnity or other right or remedy against the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company in connection with any indemnification obligation or any other liability to which he or it may become subject under or in connection with this Agreement.

(x) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall any Seller be responsible to Buyer (whether pursuant to indemnification hereunder or otherwise) for any breach

or violation by another Seller of any particular representation or warranty or covenant or agreement of such breaching Seller in this Agreement, and each of the parties hereto shall take all actions necessary (including actions under or in connection with the Escrow Agreement) to effect the foregoing; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not in any way effect Buyer’s ability to make claims for indemnification against, and recover from, the entire amount contained in the General Escrow Account.

The Representative shall prepare or cause to be prepared, and timely file or cause to be timely filed, all federal, state and local income Tax Returns for the Company for periods ending on or before the Closing Date. All such income Tax Returns shall be prepared consistent with the past practice of the Company, except as otherwise required by applicable Legal Requirement. The Representative shall allow Buyer the opportunity to review and comment on such income Tax Returns to be filed after the date hereof for a reasonable period prior to the intended filing date.

(ii) Amendment of Tax Returns. Without the prior written consent of the other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, neither Buyer nor the Representative will amend or permit the Company to amend any income Tax Return filed by or with respect to the Company relating to the taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date and the portion of any Straddle Period up to and including the Closing Date, unless required by Legal Requirement.

(iii) Tax Audits. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement but after Buyer has received written confirmation from the Representative of the Sellers’ indemnification obligations under Article 9, the Representative shall have the right in its discretion to elect to represent the interests of the Company and the Sellers in any claim, audit, examination, or administrative or court proceeding solely relating to any audits or assessments or other disputes regarding any income Tax Return filed by the Company with respect to tax periods that end on or before the Closing Date (“Tax Proceeding”) but only to the extent such claim, audit, examination, or administrative or court proceeding may impact Sellers’ indemnification obligations under Article 9. Buyer shall promptly notify the Representative in writing upon receiving notice from any taxing authority of the commencement of any Tax Proceeding regarding any income Tax Return filed by or with respect to the Company with respect to tax periods that end on or before the Closing Date, and Buyer shall take all action reasonably necessary to enable the Representative to exercise its control rights as set forth in this Section 10F(iii).

(iv) Cooperation. Buyer, the Company and the Representative shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party, in connection with the filing of income Tax Returns pursuant to this Section 10F(iv) and any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other party’s request) the provision of records and information which are reasonably relevant to any such audit,

litigation or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. The Company shall retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Company relating to any tax periods and shall abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any taxing authority, and shall give the Representative reasonable written notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any such books and records prior to the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations for that Tax period, and if the Representative so requests, the Company shall allow the Representative to take possession of such books and records rather than destroying or discarding such books and records.

(v) Tax Treatment. The parties hereto acknowledge that, consistent with Revenue Ruling 99-6, I.R.B. 1999-6, the purchase and sale of the Acquired Securities by Buyer shall be treated for United States federal income Tax purposes as an acquisition of the assets of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries (other than the Partnership Subsidiaries and Regency Management Company, Inc.) by Buyer as to Buyer and the sale of partnership interests as to the Sellers, within the purview of Section 741 of the Code.

10G. Director and Officer Liability and Indemnification.

(i) For a six-year period after the Closing Date, Buyer shall not, and shall not permit the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to, amend, repeal or modify any provision in the Company’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ Organizational Documents relating to the exculpation or indemnification of officers and director or managers of the Company or its Subsidiaries as in effect immediately prior to the Closing; provided, that any such provision may be amended, repealed or modified as it applies to officers, directors or managers of the Company and its Subsidiaries who were not officers, directors or managers of the Company or its Subsidiaries prior to the Closing.

(ii) Prior to Closing, the Company shall obtain effective as of the Closing an extended reporting period endorsement under the Company’s existing directors and officers liability insurance policy, with aggregate coverage equal to the greater of (a) the amount of aggregate coverage in effect on the date of this Agreement and (b) the amount of aggregate coverage in effect immediately prior to the Closing, insuring the directors and officers of the Company and its Subsidiaries for anything done or not done by such directors or officers in any such capacity whether pertaining to any act or omission occurring or existing prior to or at the Closing Date and whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Closing Date, with a minimum six year term (the “Tail Policy”). The premiums related to the Tail Policy shall either be paid prior to the Closing or be included as a current liability in the calculation of Estimated Closing Net Working Capital and Closing Net Working Capital.

(iii) The obligations of Buyer and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates under this Section 10G shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely affect any Person to whom this Section 10G applies without the prior consent of such affected Person.

10H. Designation and Replacement of Representative. The Sellers have agreed that it is desirable to designate the Representative to act on behalf of the Sellers for certain limited purposes, as specified herein. The Sellers have designated Waud Capital Partners, L.L.C. as the initial Representative, and execution of this Agreement by the Sellers shall, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable Legal Requirement, constitute irrevocable ratification and approval of such designation by the Sellers and authorization of the Representative by Sellers to serve in such capacity (including to settle any and all disputes with Buyer under this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement), and shall also constitute a

reaffirmation, approval, acceptance and adoption of, and an agreement to comply with and perform, all of the acknowledgments and agreements made by the Representative on behalf of the Sellers in this Agreement and the other documents delivered in connection herewith (including the Escrow Agreement). The Representative may resign of its choosing at any time upon written notice to the Sellers and Buyer, such resignation not to be effective until a replacement is appointed in accordance with this Section 10H. The designation of the Representative is coupled with an interest, and, except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, such designation is irrevocable and shall not be affected by the death, incapacity, illness, bankruptcy, dissolution or other inability to act of any of the Sellers. In the event that the Representative has resigned, a new Representative shall be appointed by a vote of Persons which collectively owned more than 50% of the Class A Units of the Company as of immediately prior to the Closing (the “Majority Holders”), such appointment to become effective upon the written acceptance thereof by the new Representative. Written notice of any such resignation, removal or appointment of a Representative shall be delivered by the Representative to Buyer promptly after such action is taken.

10I. Authority and Rights of Representative; Limitations on Liability. The Representative shall have all such powers and authority as are necessary or appropriate to carry out the functions assigned to it under this Agreement and in any other document delivered in connection herewith (including the Escrow Agreement), including all (and the exclusive) power and authority to settle any and all disputes with Buyer under this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement and to amend this Agreement and the other agreements contemplated hereby in any and all respects on behalf of all Sellers, in each case, as the Representative determines in its sole discretion, which settlements and amendments shall bind all Sellers hereto as if such Sellers made such settlement or executed such amendment; provided, however, that the Representative will have no obligation to act on behalf of the Sellers. The Company, Buyer and the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely on the actions taken by the Representative without independent inquiry into the capacity of the Representative to so act. Neither Buyer nor Company (a) need be concerned with the authority of the Representative to act on behalf of the Sellers hereunder to the extent provided herein or (b) shall be held liable or accountable in any manner for any act or omission of the Representative in such capacity. All actions, notices, communications and determinations by the Representative to carry out such functions shall conclusively be deemed to have been authorized by, and shall be binding upon, the Sellers. Neither the Representative nor any of its members, officers, directors, managers, employees, agents or representatives shall have any liability to the Sellers with respect to actions taken or omitted to be taken by the Representative in such capacity (or any of its members, officers, directors, managers, employees, agents or representatives in connection therewith), except with respect to the Representative’s willful misconduct. The Representative will at all times be entitled to rely on any directions received from the Majority Holders; provided, however, that the Representative shall not be required to follow any such direction, and shall be under no obligation to take any action in its capacity as Representative based upon any such direction. The Representative shall be entitled to engage such counsel, experts and other agents and consultants as it shall deem necessary in connection with exercising its powers and performing its function hereunder and (in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Representative) shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the opinions and advice of such Persons. The Representative (for itself and its members, officers, directors, managers, employees, agents and representatives) shall be entitled to full reimbursement from the Sellers for all expenses, disbursements and advances (including fees and disbursements of its counsel, experts and other agents and consultants) incurred by the Representative in such capacity (or any of its members, officers, directors, managers, employees, agents or representatives in connection therewith), and to full indemnification against any Loss, liability or expenses arising out of actions taken or omitted to be taken in its capacity as Representative (except for those arising out of the Representative’s willful misconduct), including the costs and expenses of investigation and defense of claims, from the Sellers (including from funds paid to the Representative under this Agreement and/or otherwise received by it in its capacity as the Representative, or funds to be distributed to the Sellers under this Agreement at its direction, pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement (including under the Escrow Agreement)). In furtherance of the

foregoing, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Representative shall have the power and authority to set aside and retain funds paid to or received by it, or direct payment of funds to be paid to the Sellers, as Purchase Price pursuant to this Agreement at Closing or thereafter, to satisfy such obligations (including to establish such reserves as the Representative determines in good faith to be appropriate for such costs and expenses that are not then known or determinable or to otherwise satisfy any reasonable purpose determined by the Representative in its sole discretion). To the extent that any amount included as Representative Expenses exceeds such expenses, disbursements or advances, the Representative may retain such excess as a fee for the services it provides hereunder. The relationship created herein is not to be construed as a joint venture or any form of partnership between or among the Representative or any Seller for any purpose of U.S. federal or state law, including federal or state income tax purposes. Neither the Representative nor any of its Affiliates owes any fiduciary or other duty to any Seller.

10J. Representation of the Seller Group. Each of the Company and the Sellers hereby agrees, on its own behalf and on behalf of its directors, managers, members, partners, officers, employees and Affiliates, that ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇ LLP may serve as counsel to each and any of the Representative, the Sellers and their respective Affiliates (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries) (individually and collectively, the “Seller Group”), on the one hand, and, if requested by the Company, the Company and its Subsidiaries, on the other hand, in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, and that, following the Closing, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇ LLP (or any successor) may serve as counsel to each and any of the Seller Group or any director, manager, member, partner, officer, employee or Affiliate of the Seller Group (but after the Closing, excluding the Company and any of its Subsidiaries), in connection with any litigation, claim or obligation arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, notwithstanding any current or previous representation of the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents thereto and waives any conflict of interest arising therefrom, and each of such parties shall cause any Affiliate thereof to consent to waive any conflict of interest arising from such representation. The foregoing waiver shall not apply in the event applicable ethical rules prohibit such a waiver.

10K. Expenses; Transfer Taxes. If this Agreement is terminated prior to consummation of the Closing, each party shall pay all fees and expenses incurred by such party in connection with the negotiation, preparation and performance of and compliance with the terms of this Agreement (including, without limitation, the fees and expenses of legal counsel, accountants, investment bankers or other representatives and consultants) and the transactions contemplated hereby or otherwise required by applicable Legal Requirement. If the Closing occurs, Buyer shall pay, or cause to be paid, all fees and expenses incurred by Buyer and its Affiliates in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby or otherwise required by applicable Legal Requirement, and any and all Company Transaction Expenses and Representative Expenses to the extent such fees and expenses are included as current liabilities in the calculation of Closing Net Working Capital or as Closing Indebtedness; provided, that the Sellers shall pay one-half (1/2) and Buyer shall pay one-half (1/2) of all property, transfer or similar taxes imposed on the Company or its Subsidiaries and any transfer or similar tax imposed on any Seller resulting from the transactions contemplated hereby.

10L. Certain Access Provisions. For a period of seven (7) years after the Closing Date, Buyer shall preserve and retain, or cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to preserve and retain, all material corporate, accounting, Tax, legal, auditing or other books and records of the Company and its Subsidiaries relating to the conduct of the business and operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries prior to the Closing Date.

10M. No Solicitation; Confidentiality.

(i) For a period of one (1) year from and after the Closing Date, no Seller shall, and each Seller shall cause its Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of Buyer: (i) solicit or direct any other Person to solicit any CEO Employee to: (A) terminate such CEO Employee’s employment with Buyer, the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company; or (B) seek or accept employment or other affiliation with any Seller or any of its Affiliates (other than, in each case, any solicitation directed at the public in general in publications available to the public in general or any contact which such Seller can demonstrate was initiated by such CEO Employee or any contact one (1) year after such CEO Employee’s employment with Buyer, the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company is terminated) or (ii) hire, employ or retain as a consultant or direct any other person to hire, employ or retain as a consultant, any CEO Employee (other than any hiring, employing or retaining resulting from (X) such CEO Employee responding to a solicitation directed at the public in general in publications available to the public in general, (Y) contact which such Seller can demonstrate was initiated by such CEO Employee or (Z) contact one (1) year after such CEO Employees employment with Buyer, the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company is terminated).

(ii) For a period of ninety (90) days from and after the Closing Date, no Seller shall, and each Seller shall cause its Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of Buyer: (i) solicit or direct any other Person to solicit any Person who was an employee of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company at the office located at ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ on the Closing Date (or any Person who is an employee at such location within six months prior to the Closing Date) to: (A) terminate such employee’s employment with Buyer, the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company; or (B) seek or accept employment or other affiliation with any Seller or any of its Affiliates or (ii) hire, employ or retain as a consultant or direct any other person to hire, employ or retain as a consultant, any such employee; provided that the restrictions set forth in this Section 10M(ii) shall not apply to any employee set forth on Section 10M(ii) of the Company Disclosure Letter.

(iii) The Sellers hereby acknowledge and agree that if any Seller or any one or more of its Affiliates breaches any provision of this Section 10M, any remedy at law would be inadequate and that Buyer, in addition to seeking monetary damages in connection with any such breach, shall be entitled to specific performance, and injunctive and other equitable relief to prevent or restrain a breach of this Section 10M or to enforce the provisions hereof.

(iv) The Sellers and Buyer intend that the provisions of this Section 10M be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the laws applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. If any provision of this Section 10M, or any part hereof, shall be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, this Section 10M shall be amended to revise the scope of such provision, to make it enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, if possible, or to delete such provision or such part, such revision or deletion to apply only with respect to the operation of this Section 10M in the jurisdiction of such court.

11C. Assignment. This Agreement and all of the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective heirs, successors and permitted assigns. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned (including by operation of law) without the prior written consent of (i) prior to the Closing, the Representative, the Company and Buyer and (ii) from and after the Closing, Buyer and the Representative; provided, however, that Buyer may assign, without the prior written consent of any other party hereto (whereupon Buyer shall provide written notice thereof to the Sellers, the Company and the Representative), any of its rights, benefits or obligations under this Agreement to an Affiliate of Buyer, and after the Closing, Buyer may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement in whole or in part to any other Person; provided, however, that no such assignment shall relieve Buyer of its obligations under this Agreement.

11D. Severability. Without limiting Section 10M(iv), whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be enforceable and valid under applicable Legal Requirement, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be unenforceable by or invalid under applicable Legal Requirement, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such unenforceability or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

11E. No Strict Construction. Each of Buyer, the Sellers, the Company and the Representative confirm that it and its respective counsel have reviewed, negotiated and adopted this Agreement as the joint agreement and understanding of the parties hereto and the language used in this Agreement shall be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties hereto to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction shall be applied against any Person.

11F. Captions. The captions used in this Agreement and in the Disclosure Letters are for convenience of reference only and do not constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit, characterize or in any way affect any provision of this Agreement, and all provisions of this Agreement shall be enforced and construed as if no caption or description had been used.

11G. Complete Agreement. This Agreement, the Disclosure Letters and any other agreements referred to herein or therein executed and delivered on or after the date hereof, contain the complete agreement among the parties hereto and supersede any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or between such parties, written or oral, which may have related to the subject matter hereof in any way; provided, however, that the Confidentiality Agreement shall not be superseded by this Agreement and shall remain in effect in accordance with its terms until the earlier of (a) the Closing, or (b) the date on which the Confidentiality Agreement terminates in accordance with its terms.

11H. Disclosure Letters.

(i) The inclusion of information in the Seller Disclosure Letter or the Company Disclosure Letter shall not be construed as or constitute an admission or agreement that a violation, right of termination, default, liability or other obligation of any kind exists with respect to any item, nor shall it be construed as or constitute an admission or agreement that such information is material to the Company, its Subsidiaries or any of the Sellers. In addition, matters reflected in the Seller Disclosure Letter and/or the Company Disclosure Letter are not necessarily limited to matters required by this Agreement to be reflected in the Seller Disclosure Letter or the Company Disclosure Letter, as applicable. Any such additional matters are set forth for informational purposes only and do not necessarily include other matters of a similar nature. Neither the specifications of any dollar amount in any representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement nor the inclusion of any specific item in the Seller Disclosure Letter and/or the Company Disclosure Letter is intended to imply that such amount, or higher or lower amounts, or the item so included or other items, are or are not material, and no Person shall use the fact of the setting forth of any such amount or the inclusion of any such item in any dispute or controversy between the parties as to whether any obligation, item or matter not described herein or included in the Seller Disclosure Letter or the Company Disclosure Letter is or is not material for purposes of this Agreement. Further, neither the specification of any item or matter in any representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement nor the inclusion of any specific item in the Seller Disclosure Letter or the Company Disclosure Letter is intended to imply that such item or matter, or other items or matters, are or are not in the ordinary course of business, and no Person shall use the fact of setting forth or the inclusion of any such items or matter in any dispute or controversy between the parties as to whether any obligation, item or matter not described herein or included in the Seller Disclosure Letter or the Company Disclosure Letter is or is not in the ordinary course of business for purposes of this Agreement. Prior to the Closing, the Sellers and the Company shall have the right from time to time to supplement, modify or update the Seller Disclosure Letter and the Company Disclosure Letter but only to the extent relating to facts, events or circumstances arising out of developments after the date of this Agreement. No such supplement, modification or update shall prohibit, limit or otherwise affect Buyer’s right to indemnification hereunder, be taken into account in determining whether the condition set forth in Section 2B(i) is satisfied or deemed to prevent or cure a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement hereunder with respect to the information disclosed in such supplement, modification or update.

(ii) The inclusion of information in the Buyer Disclosure Letter shall not be construed as or constitute an admission or agreement that a violation, right of termination, default, liability or other obligation of any kind exists with respect to any item, nor shall it be construed as or constitute an admission or agreement that such information is material to Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries. In addition, matters reflected in the Buyer Disclosure Letter are not necessarily limited to matters required by this Agreement to be reflected in the Buyer Disclosure Letter. Any such additional matters are set forth for informational purposes only and do not necessarily include other matters of a similar nature. Neither the specifications of any dollar amount in any representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement nor the inclusion of any specific item in the Buyer Disclosure Letter is intended to imply that such amount, or higher or lower amounts, or the item so included or other items, are or are not material, and no Person shall use the fact of the setting forth of any such amount or the inclusion of any such item in any dispute or controversy between the parties as to whether any obligation, item or matter not described herein or included in the Buyer Disclosure Letter is or is not material for purposes of this Agreement. Further, neither the specification of any item or matter in any representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement nor the inclusion of any specific item in the

Buyer Disclosure Letter is intended to imply that such item or matter, or other items or matters, are or are not in the ordinary course of business, and no Person shall use the fact of setting forth or the inclusion of any such items or matter in any dispute or controversy between the parties as to whether any obligation, item or matter not described herein or included in the Buyer Disclosure Letter is or is not in the ordinary course of business for purposes of this Agreement. Prior to the Closing, Buyer shall have the right from time to time to supplement, modify or update the Buyer Disclosure Letter but only to the extent relating to facts, events or circumstances arising out of developments after the date of this Agreement by providing written notice to the Representative that it is exercising such right pursuant to this Section 11H(ii). No such supplement, modification or update shall prohibit, limit or otherwise affect Sellers’ right to indemnification hereunder, be taken into account in determining whether the condition set forth in Section 2C(i) is satisfied or deemed to prevent or cure a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement hereunder with respect to the information disclosed in such supplement, modification or update

11I. No Additional Representations; Disclaimer.

(i) Buyer agrees that, except for the representations and warranties made by the Company and Sellers that are expressly set forth in this Agreement or in any Certificate, neither the Sellers, the Company nor any of their Affiliates or representatives has made and shall not be deemed to have made to Buyer or any of its Affiliates or representatives, any representation or warranty of any kind. Without limiting the foregoing and for the avoidance of doubt, Buyer further agrees that no Seller Party nor any of their respective direct or indirect Affiliates or representatives will have or be subject to any liability to Buyer or any other Person resulting from the distribution to Buyer, or Buyer’s use of the Confidential Information Memorandum prepared by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & Company, Inc. dated September 2008 and any information, document or material made available to Buyer or its Affiliates or representatives in certain “data rooms” and online “data sites,” management presentations or any other form in expectation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except for the representations and warranties made by the Company and Sellers that are expressly set forth in this Agreement and except for claims for fraud.

(ii) The Sellers and the Company acknowledge and agree that, except for the representations and warranties made by Buyer that are expressly set forth in this Agreement or in any Certificate, Buyer has not made and shall not be deemed to have made to the Sellers, the Company, any Subsidiary of the Company, or any of their respective Affiliates or representatives, any representation or warranty of any kind.

(iii) In connection with Buyer’s investigation of the Company and its Subsidiaries, Buyer has received from or on behalf of the Company certain projections, including projected statements of operating revenues and income from operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries and certain business plan information of the Company and its Subsidiaries. Buyer acknowledges that there are uncertainties inherent in attempting to make such estimates, projections and other forecasts and plans, that Buyer is familiar with such uncertainties, that Buyer is taking full responsibility for making its own evaluation of the adequacy and accuracy of all estimates, projections and other forecasts and plans so furnished to it (including the reasonableness of the assumptions underlying such estimates, projections and forecasts), and that Buyer shall have no claim against any Seller Party or any other Person with respect thereto. Accordingly, neither the Company nor any Seller Party makes any representations or warranties whatsoever with respect to such estimates, projections and other forecasts and plans (including the reasonableness of the assumptions underlying such estimates, projections and forecasts), and Buyer has not relied thereon.

11J. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts (including by means of telecopied or electronically transmitted signature pages), all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same Agreement.
