NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual promises herein made, and in consideration of the representations, warranties and covenants herein contained, the Parties agree as follows:

Article I
THE MERGERS

1.1 The Parent Merger. At the Effective Time and subject to and upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the applicable provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended (the “DGCL”), Parent Merger Sub and Parent shall consummate the Parent Merger, pursuant to which Parent Merger Sub shall be merged with and into Parent, the separate corporate existence of Parent Merger Sub shall cease and Parent shall continue as the surviving corporation in the Parent Merger. The Parent as the surviving corporation after the Parent Merger is hereinafter sometimes referred to as “Parent Surviving Subsidiary”.

1.2 The Company Merger. At the Effective Time and subject to and upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the applicable provisions of the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act (the “LLC Act”), Company Merger Sub and the Company shall consummate the Company Merger, pursuant to which Company Merger Sub shall be merged with and into the Company, the separate limited liability company existence of Company Merger Sub shall cease and the Company shall continue as the surviving limited liability company in the Company Merger. The Company as the surviving limited liability company after the Company Merger is hereinafter sometimes referred to as “Company Surviving Subsidiary” and together with Parent Surviving Subsidiary, the “Surviving Subsidiaries” (provided, that notwithstanding the Company Merger, the Company will not be included within the meaning of the term Parent Parties for purposes of this Agreement).

1.3 Effective Time. Subject to the conditions of this Agreement, the Parties (i) shall cause the Parent Merger to be consummated by filing a certificate of merger in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company and Parent (the “Parent Certificate of Merger”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware in accordance with the applicable provisions of the DGCL and (ii) shall cause the Company Merger to be consummated by filing a certificate of merger in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company and Parent (the “Company Certificate of Merger”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware in accordance with the applicable provisions of the LLC Act, with each of the Mergers to be consummated and effective simultaneously at 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the Closing Date or at such other date and/or time as may be agreed in writing by the Company and Parent and specified in each of the Parent Certificate of Merger and the Company Certificate of Merger (the “Effective Time”).

1.4 Effect of the Mergers. At the Effective Time, the effect of the Mergers shall be as provided in this Agreement and the applicable provisions of the DGCL, the LLC Act and other applicable Law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, at the Effective Time all the property, rights, agreements, privileges, powers and franchises of Parent Merger Sub and Company Merger Sub shall vest in Parent Surviving Subsidiary and Company Surviving Subsidiary, respectively, and all debts, liabilities, obligations and duties of Parent Merger Sub and Company Merger Sub shall become the debts, liabilities, obligations and duties of Parent Surviving Subsidiary and Company Surviving Subsidiary, respectively, including in each case the rights and obligations of each such Party under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents from and after the Effective Time.

1.5 Governing Documents. At the Effective Time, (i) each of the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of Parent Merger Sub shall become the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of Parent Surviving Subsidiary, respectively, and (ii) each of the Certificate of Formation and the Limited Liability Company Agreement of Company Merger Sub shall become the Certificate of Formation and the Limited Liability Company Agreement of Company Surviving Subsidiary (for the avoidance of doubt, such Limited Liability Company Agreement of Company Surviving Subsidiary, by virtue of the Company Merger and with no further action required by the Parties, replacing and superseding the Company’s operating agreement as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time), respectively, except that the name of Company Surviving Subsidiary in such Certificate of Formation and Limited Liability Company Agreement shall be “Tempus Applied Solutions, LLC”. The Members hereby consent to the amendment and restatement of the Certificate of Formation and the Limited Liability Company Agreement of the Company (replacing and superseding the Company’s operating agreement in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time), effective as of the Effective Time, each to read in its entirety as the Certificate of Formation and the Limited Liability Company Agreement of Company Merger Sub, respectively, except that the name of Company Surviving Subsidiary in such Certificate of Formation and Limited Liability Company Agreement shall be “Tempus Applied Solutions, LLC”. The Members further hereby consent to the Company Merger and the Transactions and acknowledge and agree that the consent set forth herein is intended and shall constitute such consent of the Members as may be required pursuant to the provisions of Section 18-209 of the LLC Act and other applicable provisions thereof.

At the Effective Time, (i) the board of directors and executive officers of Parent Surviving Subsidiary shall be the board of directors and executive officers of Parent Merger Sub immediately prior to the Parent Merger and (ii) the executive officers of Company Surviving Subsidiary shall be the executive officers of the Company immediately prior to the Company Merger.

1.7 Merger Consideration. As consideration for the Company Merger, each Member shall receive the Per Company Unit Consideration (as it may be adjusted after the Closing pursuant to Section 1.15) for each Company Unit owned by them, without interest, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and shall additionally have the right, subject to the terms and conditions of Section 1.16, to receive a proportionate share of any Earnout Shares issued by Pubco after the Closing pursuant to and in accordance with Section 1.16 (such right, the “Earnout Consideration”).

1.8 Effect of Parent Merger on Issued Securities of Parent and Parent Merger Sub.

(a) Conversion of Parent Common Stock. At the Effective Time, each share of Parent Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than those described in Section 1.8(c) below) shall be converted automatically into and thereafter represent the right to receive one share of Pubco Common Stock, following which, all shares of Parent Common Stock shall cease to be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist. The holders of certificates previously evidencing shares of Parent Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to have any rights with respect to such shares of Parent Common Stock, except as provided in Section 1.12 or by applicable Law. Each certificate previously evidencing shares of Parent Common Stock shall be exchanged for a certificate representing the same number of shares of Pubco Common Stock upon the surrender of such certificate in accordance with Section 1.10. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any units that were issued by Parent consisting of one share of Parent Common Stock and one Parent Warrant which have not otherwise been detached and separated into one share of Parent Common Stock and one Parent Warrant prior to the Effective Time, shall automatically, without any further action of the Parties or the holders thereof, be detached and separated immediately prior to the Effective Time, and the holder of any such unit shall be deemed to hold one share of Parent Common Stock and one Parent Warrant for each such unit.

(b) Conversion of Parent Warrants. At the Effective Time, each Parent Warrant issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into one Pubco Warrant. At the Effective Time, each Parent Warrant issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist. Each of the Pubco Warrants shall have, and be subject to, substantially the same terms and conditions set forth in the Parent Warrants. At or prior to the Effective Time, Pubco shall take all corporate action necessary to reserve for future issuance, and shall maintain such reservation for so long as any of the Pubco Warrants remain outstanding, a sufficient number of shares of Pubco Common Stock for delivery upon the exercise of such Pubco Warrants.

(c) Cancellation of Parent Common Stock Owned by Parent. At the Effective Time, any shares of Parent Common Stock owned by Parent as treasury shares or any shares of Parent Common Stock owned by any direct or indirect Subsidiary of Parent immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be canceled and extinguished without any conversion thereof or payment therefor.

(d) Conversion of Parent Merger Sub Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Parent Merger and without any action on the part of any Party or the holders of any shares of capital stock of Parent or Parent Merger Sub, each share of common stock of Parent Merger Sub outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into an equal number of shares of common stock of Parent Surviving Subsidiary, with the same rights, powers and privileges as the shares so converted and shall constitute the only outstanding shares of capital stock of Parent Surviving Subsidiary.

1.9 Effect of Company Merger on Issued Securities of the Company and Company Merger Sub.

(a) Conversion of Company Units. At the Effective Time, each Company Unit issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than those described in Section 1.9(b) below) will be cancelled and automatically deemed for all purposes to represent the right to receive the Per Company Unit Consideration (as it may be adjusted after the Closing pursuant to Section 1.15) plus the Earnout Consideration, if any. As of the Effective Time, each Member shall cease to have any other rights with respect to the Company Units, except as otherwise required under applicable Law.

(b) Cancellation of Company Units Owned by the Company. At the Effective Time, any Company Units owned by the Company in treasury or any Company Units owned by any direct or indirect Subsidiary of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be canceled and extinguished without any conversion thereof or payment therefor.

(c) Conversion of Company Merger Sub Membership Interests. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Company Merger and without any action on the part of any Party or the holders of any membership interests of the Company or Company Merger Sub, all membership interests of Company Merger Sub outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into an equal number of membership interests of Company Surviving Subsidiary, with the same rights, powers and privileges as the membership interests so converted and shall constitute the only membership interests in Company Surviving Subsidiary.

1.10 Exchange Procedures.

(a) Surrender of Certificates. At the Effective Time, (i) the holders of the Company Units will surrender their membership certificates or other instruments representing the Company Units, if any, and written acknowledgement of the termination of their rights to such Company Units (collectively, the “Company Certificates”) and (ii) the holders of the Parent Common Stock will surrender their stock certificates or other instruments representing the Parent Common Stock (collectively, the “Parent Certificates”), or in the case of a lost, stolen or destroyed Company Certificate or Parent Certificate, upon delivery of an affidavit (and indemnity, if required) in the manner provided in Section 1.10(f), to Pubco for cancellation together with any related documentation reasonably requested by Pubco in connection therewith.

(b) Exchange of Certificates. Certificates representing the shares of Pubco Common Stock shall be issued to the holders of Company Units and Parent Common Stock upon surrender of the Company Certificates and Parent Certificates as provided for herein or otherwise agreed by the Parties. Upon surrender of the Company Certificates and Parent Certificates (or in the case of a lost, stolen or destroyed Company Certificate or Parent Certificate, upon delivery of an affidavit (and indemnity, if required) in the manner provided in Section 1.10(f)) for cancellation to Pubco or to such other agent or agents as may be appointed by Pubco, Pubco shall issue, or cause to be issued, to each holder of the Company Certificates and Parent Certificates such certificates representing the number of shares of Pubco Common Stock for which their Company Units and Parent Common Stock, respectively, are exchangeable at the Effective Time and any dividends or distributions payable pursuant to Section 1.10(e), and the Company Certificates and the Parent Certificates so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled. Until so surrendered, outstanding Company Certificates will be deemed, from and after the Effective Time, to evidence only the right to receive the Per Company Unit Consideration (as it may be adjusted after the Closing pursuant to Section 1.15) plus the Earnout Consideration, if any, pursuant to this Article I.

(c) Transfers of Ownership. If certificates representing the shares of Pubco Common Stock are to be issued in a name other than that in which the Company Certificates or Parent Certificates surrendered in exchange therefor are registered, it will be a condition of the issuance thereof that the Company Certificates or Parent Certificates so surrendered will be properly endorsed and otherwise in proper form for transfer and that the persons requesting such exchange will have paid to Pubco or any agent designated by it any transfer or other taxes required by reason of the issuance of certificates representing the shares of Pubco Common Stock in any name other than that of the registered holder of the Company Certificates or Parent Certificates surrendered, or established to the satisfaction of Pubco or any agent designated by it that such tax has been paid or is not payable.

(d) No Fractional Shares. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no fraction of a share of Pubco Common Stock will be issued by virtue of the Mergers or the transactions contemplated hereby, and each Person who would otherwise be entitled to a fraction of a share of Pubco Common Stock (after aggregating all fractional shares of Pubco Common Stock that otherwise would be received by such holder) shall receive cash in lieu of such fractional share.

(e) No Distributions Until Surrender of Certificates. No dividends or other distributions declared or made after the date of this Agreement with respect to Pubco Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time will be paid to the holders of any Company Certificates or Parent Certificates that have not yet been surrendered with respect to the shares of Pubco Common Stock to be issued upon surrender thereof until the holders of record of such Company Certificates or Parent Certificates shall surrender such certificates. Subject to applicable Law, following surrender of any such Company Certificates or Parent Certificates, Pubco shall promptly deliver to the record holders thereof, without interest, the certificates representing the shares of Pubco Common Stock issued in exchange therefor and the amount of any such dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore paid with respect to such shares of Pubco Common Stock.

(f) Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event any Company Certificate or Parent Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Company Certificate or Parent Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by Pubco, the posting by such Person of a bond in customary amount and upon such terms as may be reasonably required by Pubco as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Company Certificate or Parent Certificate, Pubco will issue or cause to be issued the number of shares of Pubco Common Stock for which such lost, stolen or destroyed Company Certificates or Parent Certificates are exchangeable at the Effective Time and any dividends or distributions payable pursuant to Section 1.10(e).

1.11 Tax Consequences. It is intended by the Parties that the Mergers shall, collectively, constitute a transaction described in Section 351 of the Code.

1.12 Dissenters’ Rights.

(a) Each certificate formerly representing Parent Common Stock (“Dissenting Shares”) owned by the holders of Parent Common Stock who have validly exercised and not effectively withdrawn or lost their appraisal rights pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL (“Dissenting Stockholders”) shall thereafter represent only the right to receive the applicable payments set forth in this Section 1.12, unless and until such Dissenting Stockholder effectively withdraws its demand for, or loses its rights to, appraisal rights pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL with respect to any Dissenting Shares. No person who has validly exercised their appraisal rights pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL shall be entitled to receive any portion of the merger consideration with respect to the Dissenting Shares owned by such Dissenting Stockholder unless and until such Dissenting Stockholder shall have effectively withdrawn or lost their appraisal rights under the DGCL. Each Dissenting Stockholder shall be entitled to receive only the payment resulting from the procedure set forth in Section 262 of the DGCL with respect to the Dissenting Shares owned by such Dissenting Stockholder. Pubco shall give the Chart Representative and the Members’ Representative (i) prompt notice of any written demands for appraisal, attempted withdrawals of such demands, and any other instruments served pursuant to applicable Laws that are received by Pubco or Parent Surviving Subsidiary relating to any Dissenting Stockholder’s rights of appraisal and (ii) the opportunity to direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to demand for appraisal under the DGCL. Pubco and Parent Surviving Subsidiary shall not, except with the prior written consent of the Chart Representative and the Members’ Representative, voluntarily make any payment with respect to any demands for appraisal, offer to settle or settle any such demands or approve any withdrawal of any such demands.

(b) Each Member hereby waives any dissenter’s rights or appraisal rights that it might otherwise have in connection with the Company Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement under the LLC Act (whether pursuant to Section 18-210 thereof or otherwise), or pursuant to the Company’s Limited Liability Company Agreement or other agreement. Each of the Members agrees that it considers the consideration payable for the Company Units to represent the fair value for such Company Units.

1.13 Taking of Necessary Action; Further Action. If, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and to vest Parent Surviving Subsidiary and Company Surviving Subsidiary with full right, title and possession to all assets, property, rights, agreements, privileges, powers and franchises of Parent Merger Sub and Company Merger Sub, respectively, the then current officers and directors of Parent Surviving Subsidiary, Company Surviving Subsidiary and Pubco shall take all such lawful and necessary action.

1.14 Estimated Closing Statement. Not less than three (3) Business Days prior to Closing, the Company shall prepare and deliver to Parent a closing statement setting forth the Company’s good faith estimate of the Adjustment Amount (such estimate, the “Estimated Adjustment Amount”), including the estimated Net Debt and Net Working Capital, together with reasonably detailed back-up data to support such estimate of each item from which such amount is calculated. The Estimated Adjustment Amount shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP and, to the extent consistent with GAAP, in accordance with the practices and procedures of the Company and its Subsidiaries, in each case in accordance with the form, methodology and principles used in preparing the Financial Statements. During the preparation and calculation of the Estimated Adjustment Amount, the Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries, to afford Parent and its Representatives a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon.

1.15 Merger Consideration Adjustment.

(a) Within sixty (60) days following the Closing Date, the Chart Representative on behalf of Pubco shall deliver to the Members’ Representative a Closing statement (the “Closing Statement”) setting forth the Chart Representative’s good faith calculation of the Adjustment Amount, including Net Debt and Net Working Capital, together with reasonably detailed back-up data to support each item from which such amount is calculated. The Closing Statement shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP and, to the extent not inconsistent therewith, using the same methodologies used in preparing the Financial Statements, taking into account information that becomes available after the Closing in accordance with GAAP. Pubco shall and shall cause its Representatives to cooperate with the Chart Representative and its Representatives in the preparation of the Closing Statement as reasonably requested by the Chart Representative and its Representatives.

(b) The Members’ Representative shall have a period of thirty (30) days following the Chart Representative’s delivery of the Closing Statement to notify the Chart Representative of the Members’ Representative’s election to dispute the Closing Statement or any portion thereof. During such thirty (30)-day period, Pubco shall, and shall cause its Representatives to, provide the Members’ Representative and its Representatives with reasonable access to all books, records and employees of Pubco and its Subsidiaries (including supporting documents and working papers) to the extent relating to the preparation or review of the Closing Statement. If (i) at any time during such thirty (30)-day review period, the Members’ Representative delivers written notice to the Chart Representative of its acceptance of the Closing Statement or (ii) prior to the expiration of such thirty (30)-day review period, the Members’ Representative does not deliver to the Chart Representative written notice of its disagreement specifying the nature and amount of any disputed item (a “Notice of Adjustment Disagreement”), then the Closing Statement and any required adjustments resulting therefrom shall be deemed final and binding on the Members and the Members’ Representative. To the extent that the Members’ Representative delivers a timely Notice of Adjustment Disagreement, the Members’ Representative, on behalf of the Members, shall be deemed to have agreed with all items and amounts in the Closing Statement not specifically referenced in such Notice of Adjustment Disagreement, and such items and amounts shall not be subject to review in accordance with this Section 1.15(b) or Section1.15(d). Any Notice of Adjustment Disagreement may reference only disagreements (i) based upon either mathematical errors or amounts reflected in the Closing Statement or (ii) that either the Closing Statement or the calculation of the Adjustment Amount, or any amount contained therein was not prepared in accordance with this Article I (together with any corresponding definitions).

(c) During the thirty (30)-day period following timely delivery of a Notice of Adjustment Disagreement by the Members’ Representative to the Chart Representative, the Chart Representative and the Members’ Representative shall in good faith seek to resolve in writing any differences that they may have with respect to the matters identified therein, and all such discussions related thereto will (unless otherwise agreed by the Chart Representative and the Members’ Representative) be considered compromise negotiations under Rule 408 of the Federal Rules of Evidence and any applicable similar state rule. During such thirty (30)-day period, the Members’ Representative shall provide the Chart Representative and its Representatives with reasonable access, during normal business hours and upon reasonable prior notice to the Members’ Representative, to the working papers of the Members’ Representative and its Representatives relating to such Notice of Adjustment Disagreement. Any disputed items resolved in writing between the Members’ Representative and the Chart Representative within such thirty (30)-day period shall be final and binding with respect to such items, and if the Members’ Representative and the Chart Representative agree in writing on the resolution of all disputed items specified by the Members’ Representative in the Notice of Adjustment Disagreement, the Adjustment Amount as so determined shall be final and binding on the Parties.

(d) In the event that the Members’ Representative and the Chart Representative are unable to resolve all disputed items in the Notice of Adjustment Disagreement within thirty (30) days following the date upon which the Chart Representative received the Notice of Adjustment Disagreement, then within ten (10) days after the expiration of such thirty (30)-day period, the Chart Representative and the Members’ Representative shall submit, in writing, to the Accounting Firm, their briefs detailing their views as to the nature and amount of each item remaining in dispute, and the Accounting Firm shall make a written determination as to each such disputed item, which determination shall be final and binding for purposes of this Agreement. The Accounting Firm shall be (i) engaged by the Chart Representative and the Members’ Representative on a joint basis and (ii) authorized to resolve only those items remaining in dispute between the Parties in accordance with the provisions of this Section 1.15 within the range of the difference between the Chart Representative’s position with respect thereto and the Members’ Representative’s position with respect thereto. The determination of the Accounting Firm shall be accompanied by a certificate of the Accounting Firm that it reached such determination in accordance with the provisions of this Section 1.15. The Chart Representative and the Members’ Representative shall request that the Accounting Firm render its determination prior to the expiration of sixty (60) days after the dispute is submitted to the Accounting Firm, and such determination and any required adjustments resulting therefrom shall be final and binding on all of the Parties and the Members’ Representative. The fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be paid by Pubco or the Company.

(e) Following the final determination of the Adjustment Amount, (i) if the Adjustment Amount is greater than the Estimated Adjustment Amount, the Members shall forfeit and Pubco shall reacquire at no cost and cancel Pubco Common Stock held by the Members in an aggregate amount equal to the product of (x) such excess, divided by (y) $10, and (ii) if the Estimated Adjustment Amount is greater than the Adjustment Amount, Pubco shall issue additional shares of Pubco Common Stock to the Members in an aggregate amount equal to the product of (x) such excess, divided by (y) $10. Any cancellation or issuance pursuant to the foregoing shall be pro rata among the Members in proportion to the number of issued and outstanding Company Units held by such Member immediately prior to the Closing as compared to the total number of Company Units held by all the Members immediately prior to the Closing.

1.16 Additional Consideration Subject to Earnout.

(a) Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement, the term (i) “Earnout Period” shall mean the period from January 1, 2015 until and including June 30, 2016, and (ii) “Adjusted TTM EBITDA” shall mean, as of any designated date, the earnings before interest, Taxes, depreciation and amortization of Pubco and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, for the trailing twelve (12) fiscal month period prior to such date, as adjusted by and calculated in accordance with the methodology set forth on Appendix B hereto.

(b) Earnout Payments. After the Closing, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Members shall have the contingent right to receive additional consideration, payable by Pubco in shares of Pubco Common Stock (each such payment, an “Earnout Payment” and such shares, “Earnout Shares”), based on the performance of Pubco and its Subsidiaries during the Earnout Period if the requirements as set forth in this Section 1.16 are met. Subject to the terms and conditions herein, the Members will receive an Earnout Payment of (i) 2,000,000 Earnout Shares if the Adjusted TTM EBITDA as of the end of any two (2) consecutive fiscal quarters of Pubco during the Earnout Period is greater than $17,500,000 for each such fiscal quarter and (ii) an additional 2,750,000 Earnout Shares (for a maximum number of Earnout Shares of 4,750,000) if the Adjusted TTM EBITDA as of the end of any two (2) consecutive fiscal quarters of Pubco during the Earnout Period is greater than $22,500,000 for each such quarter. The Earnout Shares will be distributed pro rata among the Members in proportion to the number of issued and outstanding Company Units held by such Member immediately prior to the Closing as compared to the total number of Company Units held by all the Members immediately prior to the Closing.

(i) The Adjusted TTM EBITDA for each fiscal quarter of Pubco during the Earnout Period shall be determined (promptly, but in any event within ten (10) Business Days, after Pubco management’s preparation and delivery to the Board and the Chart Representative of the consolidated financial statements of Pubco and its Subsidiaries for such fiscal quarter) in good faith by the Chart Representative, subject to the reasonable approval of Pubco’s board of directors (excluding the Members or their Affiliates or designees), and delivered by or on behalf of Pubco in a written notice (an “Earnout Statement”) to the Members’ Representative, together with reasonably detailed back-up data to support each item from which such amount is calculated. Pubco shall and shall cause its Representatives to cooperate with the Chart Representative and its Representatives in calculating the Adjustment TTM EBITDA for each fiscal quarter of Pubco during the Earnout Period as reasonably requested by the Chart Representative and its Representatives.

(ii) The Members’ Representative shall have a period of thirty (30) days following Pubco’s delivery of the Earnout Statement to notify the Chart Representative of the Members’ Representative’s election to dispute the Earnout Statement or any portion thereof.

If (i) at any time during such thirty (30)-day review period, the Members’ Representative delivers written notice to the Chart Representative of its acceptance of the Earnout Statement or (ii) prior to the expiration of such thirty (30)-day review period, the Members’ Representative does not deliver to the Chart Representative written notice of its disagreement specifying the nature and amount of any disputed item (a “Notice of Earnout Disagreement”), then the Earnout Statement and the Adjusted TTM EBITDA calculated therein and any Earnout Payments resulting therefrom shall be deemed final and binding on the Members and the Members’ Representative. To the extent that the Members’ Representative delivers a timely Notice of Earnout Disagreement, the Members’ Representative, on behalf of the Members, shall be deemed to have agreed with all items and amounts in the Earnout Statement not specifically referenced in such Notice of Earnout Disagreement, and such items and amounts shall not be subject to review in accordance with this Section 1.16(c)(ii) or Section 1.16(c)(iv). Any Notice of Earnout Disagreement may reference only disagreements (i) based upon either mathematical errors or amounts reflected in the Earnout Statement or (ii) that either the Earnout Statement or the calculation of the Adjusted TTM EBITDA, or any amount contained therein was not prepared in accordance with this Article I (together with any corresponding definitions).

(iii) During the thirty (30)-day period following timely delivery of a Notice of Earnout Disagreement by the Members’ Representative to the Chart Representative, the Chart Representative and the Members’ Representative shall in good faith seek to resolve in writing any differences that they may have with respect to the matters identified therein, and all such discussions related thereto will (unless otherwise agreed by the Chart Representative and the Members’ Representative) be considered compromise negotiations under Rule 408 of the Federal Rules of Evidence and any applicable similar state rule. During such thirty (30)-day period, the Members’ Representative shall provide the Chart Representative and its Representatives with reasonable access, during normal business hours and upon reasonable prior notice to the Members’ Representative, to the working papers of the Members’ Representative and its Representatives relating to such Notice of Earnout Disagreement. Any disputed items resolved in writing between the Members’ Representative and the Chart Representative within such thirty (30)-day period shall be final and binding with respect to such items, and if the Members’ Representative and the Chart Representative agree in writing on the resolution of all disputed items specified by the Members’ Representative in the Notice of Earnout Disagreement, the Adjusted TTM EBITDA and any resulting Earnout Payment as so determined shall be final and binding on the Parties.

(iv) In the event that the Members’ Representative and the Chart Representative are unable to resolve all disputed items in the Notice of Earnout Disagreement within thirty (30) days following the date upon which the Chart Representative received the Notice of Earnout Disagreement, then within ten (10) days after the expiration of such thirty (30)-day period, the Chart Representative and the Members’ Representative shall submit, in writing, to the Accounting Firm, their briefs detailing their views as to the nature and amount of each item remaining in dispute, and the Accounting Firm shall make a written determination as to each such disputed item, which determination shall be final and binding for purposes of this Agreement. The Accounting Firm shall be (i) engaged by the Chart Representative and the Members’ Representative on a joint basis and (ii) authorized to resolve only those items remaining in dispute between the Parties in accordance with the provisions of this Section 1.16(c) within the range of the difference between the Chart Representative’s position with respect thereto and the Members’ Representative’s position with respect thereto.

The fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be paid by Pubco or the Company.

(d) Timing of Earnout Payments. Any Earnout Payment that is earned in accordance with this Section 1.16 will be made by Pubco by delivery of the applicable number of Earnout Shares to the Members within sixty (60) days after the final determination in accordance with Section 1.16(c) of the Earnout Statement and the Adjusted TTM EBITDA contained therein showing that the applicable required Adjusted TTM EBITDA target has been met for two (2) consecutive fiscal quarters during the Earnout Period.

(e) Earnout Shares Lock-Up. Except as expressly contemplated by Sections 1.15(e) and 9.2(e), each Member hereby acknowledges and agrees that in the event that any Earnout Shares are issued or otherwise transferred to such Member, such Member will not, without the prior written consent of Pubco’s board of directors at its sole discretion, during the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the earlier of (i) the later of (x) the one (1) year anniversary of the date of this Agreement and (y) the six (6) month anniversary of the date of issuance of such Earnout Shares and (ii) the date subsequent to the Closing Date on which Pubco consummates a liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of Pubco’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of Pubco Common Stock for cash, securities or other property (the “Lock-Up Period”): (i) sell, offer to sell, contract or agree to sell, hypothecate, pledge, encumber, grant any option to purchase or otherwise dispose of or agree to dispose of, directly or indirectly, or establish or increase a put equivalent position or liquidate or decrease a call equivalent position within the meaning of Section 16 of the Exchange Act, with respect to such Earnout Shares, (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any Earnout Shares, whether any such transaction is to be settled by delivery of Pubco Common Stock or other securities, in cash or otherwise, or (iii) agree or publicly announce any intention to effect any transaction specified in the foregoing (i) or (ii); whether any such transaction described in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) above is to be settled by delivery of such Earnout Shares or other securities, in cash or otherwise (any of the foregoing described in clauses (i), (ii), or (iii), a “Prohibited Transfer”). Each Member further agrees to execute such agreements as may be reasonably requested by Pubco’s board of directors, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Member, that are consistent with the foregoing or that are necessary to give further effect thereto. If any Prohibited Transfer of Earnout Shares is made or attempted contrary to the provisions of this Section 1.16(e), such purported Prohibited Transfer shall be null and void ab initio, and Pubco shall refuse to recognize any such purported transferee of such Earnout Shares as one of its shareholders for any purpose. In order to enforce this Section 1.16(e), Pubco may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the Earnout Shares until the end of the restriction period described in the first sentence of this Section 1.16(e).

(f) Clawback. In addition to any other remedy available to Pubco and its Affiliates under this Agreement or the other Transaction Document or under applicable Law, in the event that after the payment of an Earnout Payment and during the applicable Lock-Up Period for such Earnout Shares there is an adjustment to the financial statements or books and records for Pubco and its Subsidiaries (whether as a result of a financial statement error, Government Contract rate, cost or other audit adjustment (including any cost disallowances) or otherwise) such that the Adjusted TTM EBITDA for any period for which the Earnout Payment was made is decreased below the applicable threshold requirements, such that after such adjustment Pubco determines (subject to dispute resolution procedures substantially similar to those set forth in Section 1.16(c) in the event that the Members’ Representative disagrees with such determination) that the applicable Earnout Payment should not have been made as a result of the calculation of Adjusted TTM EBITDA for the two consecutive fiscal quarters for which they were made or for any other completed period during the Earnout Period, the Earnout Shares under such Earnout Payment shall be forfeited by the Members and returned to Pubco.

1.17 Withholding of Tax. Pubco (or any other payor) shall be entitled (but not obligated) to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable to the Members or the holders of Parent Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as Pubco shall determine in good faith are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under the Code or any provision of federal, state, local or foreign Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Members or the holders of Parent Common Stock, as applicable.

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES RELATING TO THE COMPANY

As a material inducement to the Parent Parties to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the Transactions, except as set forth on the correspondingly numbered section or subsection of the Company Schedules (it being agreed that the disclosure of any item in one section or subsection thereof shall be deemed included on any other section or subsection and to modify each other representation or warranty (even if such representation or warranty does not reference the Company Schedules) to which the relevance of such item is reasonably apparent on its face), the Company represents and warrants to the Parent Parties, as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date, as follows:

3.1 Organization and Corporate Power.

(a) The Company is a limited liability company duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of the State of Delaware, and is qualified or registered to do business and in good standing in each jurisdiction where the nature of its activities makes such qualification or registration necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified, registered or in good standing is not reasonably expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect on the Company and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole). Each of the Company’s Subsidiaries (if any) is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of its jurisdiction of organization, and is qualified or registered to do business and in good standing in each jurisdiction where the nature of its activities makes such qualification or registration necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified, registered or in good standing is not reasonably expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect on the Company and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole). The Company and each of its Subsidiaries has the full corporate or limited liability company (as applicable) power and authority necessary to own and operate its properties and to conduct its business as now conducted. Complete and accurate copies of the organizational documents of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries have been delivered to the Parent prior to the date hereof and reflect all amendments made thereto at any time prior to the date of this Agreement. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is in default under or in violation of any provision of its operating agreement or other organizational document or any resolution adopted by its members or managers.

(b) As applicable, Schedule 3.1 lists each Subsidiary of the Company and sets forth all jurisdictions in which the Company and its Subsidiaries are qualified or registered to do business. The books of account and transfer ledgers of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries are accurate, up-to-date and complete, and have been maintained in accordance with prudent business practices and all applicable Laws. There have been no meetings or other Proceedings or actions, resolutions or consents of the members of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the managers of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that are not fully reflected in such minutes. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has conducted any business under or otherwise used, for any purpose, any fictitious name, assumed name, trade name or other name, other than the names set forth on Schedule 3.1.

3.2 Authority for Agreement. The Company has full limited liability company power, authority and legal right to enter into and perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents to which it is or will be a party and to consummate the Transactions. The managers and the members of the Company have unanimously authorized the Company’s execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents and the consummation of the Transactions and the Company has provided Parent with a true, correct and complete copy of each such authorization. No other limited liability company proceedings on the part of the Company, or any member of the Company, are, or will be, necessary to approve and authorize the Company’s execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents or consummation of the Transactions. The Transaction Documents to which the Company is a party have been or will be duly executed and delivered by the Company and, assuming due execution and delivery by all counterparties thereto, are or will be legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against it in accordance with their respective terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar Laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights in general or the rules governing availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies and general principals of equity, regardless of whether considered in a Proceeding in equity or at law (the “Bankruptcy and Equity Exceptions”).

3.3 No Violation to Result. Other than with respect to the Securities Laws or as may be required by reason of or the Parent Parties’ participation in the Transactions, the execution, delivery and performance by the Company of the Transaction Documents to which the Company is a party and the consummation by the Company of the Transactions and the fulfillment by the Company of the terms hereof and thereof, do not and will not, directly or indirectly (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both): (a) violate, breach, conflict with, constitute a default under, accelerate or permit the acceleration of the performance required by (i) any of the terms of the operating agreement or other organizational documents of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any resolution adopted by the managers or members of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (ii) any Material Contract to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which they or their assets are bound, or (iii) any Law or other legal requirement of any Governmental Authority applicable to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; (b) give any Person the right to declare a default or exercise any remedy or accelerate performance or maturity under any Material Contract or cancel, terminate or modify any Material Contract; (c) give any Governmental Authority the right to revoke, withdraw, suspend, cancel, terminate or modify, any material permit or license that is held by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or that otherwise is used in or necessary for the Company’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ business or any of the assets owned or used by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; or (d) result in the creation or imposition of any material Encumbrance or restriction (other than as expressly provided in the Transaction Documents) in favor of any Person (other than the Parent Parties) upon any of the Company Units or any of the properties or assets of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries under any Contract entered into by the Company or its Subsidiaries, except, in the case of each of (a)(ii), (a)(iii) and (b), where the failure of such representations and warranties to be so true and correct is not material to the Company and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole). No notice to, filing with, or consent of any Governmental Authority under any Law or any Person under any Material Contract is necessary in connection with, and no “change of control” provision in any Material Contract is, or will be, triggered by, the authorization, approval, execution, delivery or performance by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of the Transaction Documents or the consummation by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of the Transactions pursuant thereto, except (x) under the Exchange Act, the Securities Act or other federal or state securities, “blue sky” or takeover Laws and any rules or regulations promulgated thereunder (collectively, the “Securities Laws”) or (y) any notice, filing or consent, the failure of which to be made or obtained, as applicable, is not material to the Company and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole).

3.4 Capitalization.

(a) As of the date hereof, the ownership of the issued and outstanding membership interests or other equity securities of each of the Company and its Subsidiaries are set forth, as applicable, on Schedule 3.4(a).

(b) All of the issued and outstanding membership interests or other equity securities of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries have been duly authorized and validly issued, and are fully paid and non-assessable. As of the Closing, all of the outstanding membership interests or other equity securities of each Subsidiary of the Company (if any) will be owned, directly or indirectly, by the Company, free and clear of any Encumbrances other than applicable Securities Laws. No restrictions on transfer, repurchase option, right of redemption, preemptive rights, proxies, membership agreements, rights of first refusal or other similar agreements or rights exist with respect to the membership interests or other equity securities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and no such rights will arise by virtue of the Transactions, in each case, other than as set forth in the applicable operating agreement or other organizational documents of such entity and the other agreements to be delivered in connection therewith and in the Transaction Documents.

The Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ disclosure controls and procedures are, and through the Closing Date will be, reasonably designed to ensure that all material information required to be disclosed by the Company or its Subsidiaries in the reports that it files or furnishes under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that all such material information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and to make the certifications required pursuant to Sections 302 and 906 of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ Act. Based on its then-most recent evaluation of internal controls over financial reporting prior to the date thereof, management of the Company and its Subsidiaries have disclosed to the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ auditors (i) any significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation of internal controls over financial reporting that are reasonably likely to adversely affect in any material respect the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ ability to report financial information and (ii) any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ internal control over financial reporting, and each such deficiency, weakness and fraud so disclosed to auditors, if any, has been disclosed to Parent, in each case as discovered or determined to exist pursuant to such evaluation.

None of any current or former employee, director, consultant or independent contractor of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries would receive benefits under any other arrangement that would meet the definition of “Benefit Plan” where any of the Company’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ Affiliates’ maintain, sponsor or contribute to such arrangement.

5.1 Organization.

(a) Parent is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of the State of Delaware and is qualified to do business and in good standing in each jurisdiction where the character or location of its assets or properties owned, leased or operated by it or the nature of its activities makes such qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified, registered or in good standing is not reasonably expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect on Parent. Parent has full corporate power and authority and all material licenses, permits and authorizations necessary to own and operate its properties and to conduct its business as conducted.

(b) Each of Pubco and Parent Merger Sub is a corporation, duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of the State of Delaware, and Company Merger Sub is a limited liability company duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of the State of Delaware. Each of Pubco and each Merger Sub is qualified to do business and in good standing in each jurisdiction where the character or location of its assets or properties owned, leased or operated by it or the nature of its activities makes such qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified, registered or in good standing is not reasonably expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect on such Parent Party. Each of Pubco and each Merger Sub has full corporate or limited liability company power and authority and all material licenses, permits and authorizations necessary to own and operate its properties and to conduct its business as conducted.

5.2 Authority for Agreement. Subject to receipt of the Required Parent Stockholder Approval, each Parent Party each has full corporate or limited liability company power and authority to enter into and perform their respective obligations under the Transaction Documents to which such Parent Party is or will be a party and to consummate the Transactions.

The Transaction Documents to which each Parent Party is a party have been duly executed and delivered by such Parent Party, and are legal, valid and binding obligations of such Parent Party, enforceable against such Parent Party, in accordance with their respective terms, except as enforceability may be limited by the Bankruptcy and Equity Exceptions. Subject to receipt of the Required Parent Stockholder Extension Approval, if applicable, Parent has full corporate power and authority to enter into and perform the respective obligations under the Extension Documents to which Parent is a party and to consummate the Extension and the transactions contemplated thereby and no other corporate proceedings on the part of Parent are, or will be, necessary to approve and authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the Extension Documents and the consummation of the Extension.

5.3 No Violation to Result. Other than with respect to the Securities Laws or as may be required by reason of the Seller Parties’ participation in the Transactions, and assuming all consents or filings set forth on Schedule 5.3 are obtained or made and the Required Parent Stockholder Approval is obtained, the execution, delivery and performance by each Parent Party of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party, and the consummation by Parent of the Extension and by each Parent Party of the Transactions, do not and will not, directly or indirectly (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both): (a) violate, breach, conflict with, constitute a default under or accelerate or permit the acceleration of the performance required by (i) any of the terms of the Parent Organizational Documents or any resolution adopted by the Parent Board or the stockholders of Parent, (ii) any of the terms of the certificate of incorporation or bylaws or other organizational document of Pubco or Parent Merger Sub or any resolution adopted by the board of directors of Pubco or Parent Merger Sub or stockholders of Pubco or Parent Merger Sub, (iii) any of the terms of the certificate of formation, limited liability company agreement or other organizational documents of Company Merger Sub or any resolution adopted by the member or managers of Company Merger Sub, (iv) any contract or agreement (whether written or oral) to which a Parent Party is a party or by which any of them or their assets are bound or (v) any Law or other legal requirement of any Governmental Authority applicable to such Parent Party; (b) give any Governmental Authority or other Person the right to declare a default or exercise any remedy or accelerate performance or maturity under any contract or agreement (whether written or oral) or cancel, terminate or modify any such contract or agreement; or (c) result in the creation or imposition of any material Encumbrance or restriction (other than as expressly provided in the Transaction Documents) in favor of any Person upon any equity interest in Pubco or either Merger Sub Sub under any contract or agreement (whether written or oral) entered into by a Parent Party or any of the material properties or material assets of a Parent Party, except, in the case of (a)(iv) and (a)(v), where the failure of such representation to be true and correct is not material to Parent and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole). No notice to, filing with, or consent of any Person is necessary in connection with, and no “change of control” provision in any contract or agreement (whether written or oral) or otherwise is, or will be, triggered by, the authorization, approval, execution, delivery or performance by Parent of the Extension Documents or the consummation by Parent of the Extension or by a Parent Party of the Transaction Documents or the consummation by a Parent Party of the Transactions, except for (y) the actions to be taken in connection with the Proxy Solicitation, the Extension Proxy Solicitation, the Warrant Tender Offer or the filing of the Registration Statement; and (z) compliance with the applicable requirements of the Securities Laws.

There are no outstanding or unresolved comments in any comment letters of the staff of the SEC received by Parent relating to the SEC Reports.

5.12 Parent Contracts.

(a) Except as filed as an exhibit to an SEC Report filed prior to the date of this Agreement or as set forth on Schedule 5.12(a) (if requested, a true, correct and complete copy of each of which has been made available to the Company), there are no contracts, agreements or obligations of any kind, whether written or oral, to which Parent is a party or by or to which any of the properties or assets of Parent may be bound, subject or affected, which (i) creates or imposes a liability greater than Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000), or (ii) includes, as a party or beneficiary, any Founder or any Affiliate thereof (the “Parent Contracts”)

(b) No Parent Contract has been breached or cancelled by the other party, and, to the Knowledge of the Parent, there is no anticipated breach by any other party to any such Parent Contract (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both). Parent has performed all of the material obligations required to be performed by it in connection with such Parent Contracts and is not in default under or in breach of any such Parent Contract, and no event has occurred that with the passage of time or the giving of notice or both would: (i) result in a “default” or “event of default” giving rise to a right of termination or breach under any such Parent Contract; (ii) give any Person the right to declare a default” or “event of default” giving rise to a right of termination or the right to exercise any remedy under any such Parent Contract; (iii) give any Person the right to accelerate the maturity or performance of any such Parent Contract; or (iv) give any Person the right to cancel, terminate or materially modify any such Parent Contract. Parent has not waived any of its material rights under any such Parent Contract, and does not have any present expectation or intention of not fully performing any obligation pursuant to any such Parent Contract. Each such Parent Contract is legal, valid, binding, enforceable and in full force and effect against Parent and, to the Knowledge of Parent, the other parties thereto, except as enforceability may be limited by the Bankruptcy and Equity Exceptions and assuming the filings, notices, approvals and consents set forth on Schedule 5.3 are made or obtained, and shall continue as such immediately following the consummation of the Transactions. No such Parent Contract obligates Parent to process, manufacture or deliver products or perform services that are reasonably expected to result in a loss to Parent upon completion of performance.

(c) No Person is currently renegotiating, or has the right to renegotiate, any amount paid or payable to or by Parent under any Parent Contract or any other term or provision of any Parent Contract.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Parent Party makes any representation, warranty or covenant with respect to any information or statements supplied or made by or on behalf of the Company or the Members or any of their Affiliates.

5.15 Organizational Documents. Parent has made available to the Company through the SEC’s Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval System (“▇▇▇▇▇”) or otherwise true, correct and complete copies of its certificate of incorporation and bylaws and the Trust Agreement (collectively, the “Parent Organizational Documents”), as amended through the date hereof. Parent is not in violation of any of the provisions of the Parent Organizational Documents. The copies of the organizational documents of Pubco and the Merger Subs have been made available to the Company reflect all amendments made thereto at any time prior to the date of this Agreement and are true, correct and complete.

5.16 Subsidiary Obligations.

5.18 Investigation. Each Parent Party acknowledges that the detailed representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement have been negotiated at arm’s length among sophisticated business entities. In entering into this Agreement, the Parent Parties have relied solely upon their own investigation and analysis and the representations and warranties regarding (i) the Company and its Subsidiaries expressly contained in Article III and (ii) the Members expressly contained in Article IV. Except for such representations and warranties, the Parent Parties acknowledge that none of the Seller Parties or any member or Representative of any of them or any Person acting on behalf of any of the foregoing makes or has made any other express or implied representation or warranty to the Parent Parties. The Parent Parties further agree that, absent fraud, none of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, the Seller Parties or any Member or any other Person shall have or be subject to any liability to the Parent Parties or any other Person resulting from the distribution to a Parent Party, or a Parent Party’s use, of any information, including any information, document or material made available or provided to the Parent Parties or their Representatives in certain “data rooms,” management presentations, offering or information memoranda or any other form in expectation of the transactions contemplated hereby, except for the remedies of the Parent Parties set forth herein. Without limitation, in connection with the Parent Parties’ investigation of the Company, its Subsidiaries and their business, the Parent Parties have received from or on behalf of the Company and its Subsidiaries and/or the Members certain projections, including projected statements of operating revenues and income from operations of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries and certain business plan information for such fiscal years. The Parent Parties acknowledge that there are uncertainties inherent in attempting to make such estimates, projections and other forecasts and plans, that the Parent Parties are familiar with such uncertainties, that the Parent Parties are taking full responsibility for making their own evaluation of the adequacy and accuracy of all estimates, projections and other forecasts and plans so furnished (including the reasonableness of the assumptions underlying such estimates, projections and forecasts), and that the Parent Parties shall not have any claim against the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, the Members or any Representative of any of them and/or any Person acting on behalf of any of the foregoing with respect thereto.

The cost of preparation of Parent Prepared Returns shall be paid by the Company at the direction of the Members’ Representative. To the extent any Tax shown as due on any Parent Prepared Return is payable by the Members (including by reason of the indemnification obligations of the Members hereunder), (A) each such Parent Prepared Return shall be prepared in a manner consistent with the prior practice of the Company and its Subsidiaries unless otherwise required by applicable Tax Law or the change from prior practice would not increase the amount of Tax payable by the Company or its Subsidiaries for which the Members are obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Parties pursuant to Section 9.1, (B) each such Parent Prepared Return shall be provided to the Members’ Representative for review at least fifteen (15) days before the due date for filing such Parent Prepared Return (or, if required to be filed within thirty (30) days after the Closing or within thirty (30) days after the end of the taxable period to which such Tax Return relates, as soon as reasonably practicable following the Closing) and (C) the Members’ Representative shall have the right to review and comment on each such Parent Prepared Return before filing.

The Members shall include any income, gain, loss, deduction or other Tax items for the Company and its Subsidiaries on their Tax Returns in a manner consistent with the Schedules K-1 furnished to the Members with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries and fully satisfy any Tax liabilities arising from such inclusion.

(b) The Parties shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, treat the taxable period of the Company and its Subsidiaries as ending at the close of business on the Closing Date. For purposes of this Agreement, Company Taxes incurred with respect to a taxable period that includes, but does not end on, the Closing Date, shall be allocated to the portion of the period ending on the Closing Date (i) except as provided in (ii) and (iii) below, to the extent feasible, on a specific identification basis, according to the date of the event or transaction giving rise to the Tax, (ii) except as provided in (iii) below, with respect to periodically assessed ad valorem Taxes and Taxes not otherwise feasibly allocable to specific transactions or events, in proportion to the number of days in such period occurring before the Closing Date compared to the total number of days in such period, and (iii) in the case of any Tax based upon or related to income or receipts, in an amount equal to the Tax that would be payable if the relevant taxable period ended at the close of business on the Closing Date. All determinations necessary to give effect to the foregoing allocations shall be made in a manner consistent with prior practices of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

(c) The Members’ Representative, the Members, the Company, the Chart Representative and Parent Parties shall cooperate, and the Company shall cause its Subsidiaries to cooperate, as and to the extent reasonably requested by any other Party hereto in connection the preparation and filing of Tax Returns as provided herein and any Proceeding with respect to Taxes and preparation of financial statements. Such cooperation shall include the provision of records and information that are reasonably relevant to any such Tax Return or Proceeding with respect to Taxes and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. The Members’ Representative, the Chart Representative, the Parent Parties and the Company shall, and the Company shall cause its Subsidiaries to, (i) retain all books and records with respect to Company Taxes (including Tax Returns) relating to any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until ninety (90) days after the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (including waivers and extensions) for assessment of Taxes to which such books and records are relevant and (ii) give the other Parties reasonable written notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any such books and records and, if another Party so requests, allow such other Party to take possession of or copy such books and records.

(d) The Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, cause all obligations that it or any of its Subsidiaries has under all Tax sharing agreements or similar agreements to be terminated on or before the Closing Date and, after the Closing Date, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be bound thereby or have any Liability thereunder.

(e) Any Party who receives any notice of a pending or threatened Tax Proceeding against or with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that may give rise to Liability of another Party hereto, shall promptly notify such other Party (and if such Party is a Parent Party, the Chart Representative) after receipt of such notice; provided, however, that any failure on the part of a Parent Party to so notify the Members’ Representative shall not limit any of the obligations of any of the Members or the Members’ Representative, or any of the rights of any Indemnified Party, under Article IX (except to the extent, and only to the extent, that such failure increases the costs or liability of the Indemnifying Party under Article IX). The Parties each agree to consult with and to keep the other Parties informed on a regular basis regarding the status of any Tax Proceeding to the extent that such Proceeding could affect a Liability of such other Parties (including indemnity obligations hereunder). Pubco shall have the right to control all Tax Proceedings relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, except that in the event such Tax Proceeding pertains to items reportable on income Tax Returns of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (or any of the Members) for taxable periods ending on or before the Closing Date, the Members’ Representative shall have the right to conduct any such Tax Proceeding through counsel of the Members’ Representative’ choice in the same manner, and subject to the same limitations, as provided in Sections 9.2(a) and 9.2(b); provided, however, that Pubco and the Chart Representative shall be entitled to participate in any Tax Proceeding conducted by the Members’ Representative, at Pubco’s sole expense, and the Members’ Representative may not settle or compromise any such Tax Proceeding without the prior written consent of Pubco and the Chart Representative (which consent may not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). No Parent Party nor the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall enter into any agreement with the relevant Taxing Authority pertaining to such income Tax Proceeding conducted by the Members’ Representative without the written consent of the Members’ Representative, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, conditioned or delayed. To the extent not inconsistent with this Section 6.5, the provisions of Article IX shall govern the manner in which Tax Proceedings are conducted and resolved.

6.6 Litigation Support. In the event and for so long as any Party actively is contesting or defending against any charge, complaint or other Proceeding by any Person that is not a Party in connection with (i) any of the Transactions or (ii) any fact, situation, circumstance, status, condition, activity, practice, plan, occurrence, event, incident, action, failure to act or transaction on or prior to the Closing Date involving the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, each of the other Parties shall, and the Company shall cause its Subsidiaries to, reasonably cooperate with such Party or its counsel in the contest or defense, make available its personnel, and provide such testimony and access to its books and records as shall be reasonably requested in connection with such contest or defense, including entering into a joint defense agreement or confidentiality agreement with respect thereto, all at the sole cost and expense of the contesting or defending Party (except to the extent that the contesting or defending Party is entitled to indemnification therefor pursuant to Article IX below).

6.7 Reasonable Efforts.

(a) Each Party, including the Members’ Representative and the Chart Representative, agrees to use all reasonable efforts promptly to take, or cause to be taken, and the Company shall cause its Subsidiaries to take, all actions and do or cause to be done all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Laws and regulations to (i) obtain all consents, approvals or actions of, make all filings with and give all notices to Governmental Authorities or any other public or private third parties required to consummate the Mergers and the other matters contemplated hereby, (ii) provide such other information and communications to such Governmental Authorities or other public or private Persons as the other Party or such Governmental Authorities or other public or private Persons may reasonably request in connection therewith, and (iii) consummate and make effective the Transactions, including the satisfaction, but not waiver, of all conditions hereto; provided that the foregoing shall not require acceptance by the Parent Parties or the Seller Parties of any mitigation arrangement or any condition required or imposed on the Parent Parties or their Affiliates, the Members and/or the Company or its Subsidiaries that are unacceptable to the Parent (on behalf of the Parent Parties) or the Members’ Representative (or behalf of the Seller Parties), each in its sole discretion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6.7(a), the Parent Parties, on the one hand, and the Seller Parties, on the other hand, shall each keep the other Party reasonably and promptly informed of any and all material written and oral communications from any Governmental Authority, or any such other public or private Person, regarding the Extension and the Extension Documents and regarding the Transactions or otherwise relating to this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents.

Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything in this Agreement to the contrary, it is expressly understood and agreed that (i) no Party shall have any obligation to litigate or contest any administrative or judicial action or any decree, judgment, injunction or other order, whether temporary, preliminary or permanent brought by or before an administrative tribunal, court or other similar tribunal or body and (ii) nothing shall require any Parent Party or any Seller Party to accept or permit any Subsidiary of the Company to accept, without Parent’s and the Members’ Representative’s consent, any requirement, condition or arrangement imposed upon the Members, the Parent Parties, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or their respective business operations as a condition to obtaining approval or resolving any objection of a Governmental Authority or other public or private Persons with respect to the Transactions, in each case to the extent that such actions, requirements, conditions or arrangements are unacceptable to Parent or the Members’ Representative, each in its sole discretion.

(c) The Parties and the Members’ Representative and the Chart Representative shall make all other necessary and appropriate filings with applicable agencies of the U.S. Government, including, if appropriate, submission of notification of the Transactions to the U.S. Department of State at least sixty (60) days in advance of the Closing pursuant to 22 C.F.R. § 122.4(b).

(b) From and after the Closing, each of the Specified Members covenants and agrees to indemnify, defend, protect and hold harmless Pubco and its officers, directors, employees, members, assigns, successors and Affiliates (the “Parent Indemnified Parties”) from, against and in respect of all Damages suffered or incurred by such Person in connection with, resulting from or arising out of (whether or not, subject to the last sentence of this Section 9.1(b), involving a Third Party Claim): (i) the breach of any representation or warranty made by any Seller Party set forth in this Agreement or in any certificate delivered to a Parent Party pursuant to this Agreement; (ii) the breach of any covenant or agreement on the part of any Member and, with respect to any covenant or agreement requiring performance by the Company prior to the Closing, the Company set forth in this Agreement or in any certificate executed and delivered to a Parent Party by any Seller Party pursuant to this Agreement; (iii) any and all Liabilities for Taxes (x) in connection with or arising out of the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ activities or business on or before the Closing Date (determined, with respect to taxable periods that begin before and end after the Closing Date, in accordance with the allocation provisions of Section 6.5(b)), (y) owing by any Person (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries) for which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is liable where the Liability of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for such Taxes is attributable to an event or transaction occurring on or before the Closing Date, including (A) in respect of Taxes payable by any Member, (B) under Treasury Regulation Sections 1.1502-6 (or any predecessor or successor thereof or any analogous or similar provision of Law ), (C) as a transferee or successor or (D) by Contract, or (z) resulting from a breach by any Seller Party of any provision of Section 6.5, except, in each case with respect to this clause (iii), to the extent that the amount of such Tax was reserved for on the Balance Sheet or is attributable to transactions undertaken in the ordinary course of business after the Balance Sheet Date for which there are reserves or accruals for Taxes on the Balance Sheet related to similar transactions; (iv) enforcing the indemnification rights of the Indemnified Parties hereunder; and (v) any Liabilities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries arising from the conduct of any Tempus Jets Entity (other than Liabilities, if any, arising pursuant to or in connection with any Contract or transaction set forth on Schedule 6.10 or other Contracts between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and a Tempus Jets Entity that (1) are on terms and conditions no less favorable to the Company or such Subsidiary than could have been obtained from an unrelated third party negotiated on an arm’s-length basis, (2) have been approved by the Chart Representative and the Parent Board or, after the Closing, the board of directors of Pubco or (3) were entered into at any time that no Member having a direct or indirect interest in such Tempus Jets Entity is an officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or after the Closing, Pubco or any of its Subsidiaries). Notwithstanding the foregoing and any other provision of this Agreement, the Parties agree that for purposes of the indemnification obligations of the Specified Members set forth in this Article IX, a breach of the covenant of the Company set forth in Section 6.15(b) hereof shall be indemnifiable only to the extent of Damages arising out of Third Party Claims. Each Member other than the Specified Members hereby agrees to indemnify each Specified Member for any amounts paid by such Specified Member under this Article IX with respect to Damages arising from a breach by such Member of a representation or warranty in Article IV. Notwithstanding anything in this Article IX to the contrary, the Parties agree that with respect to any obligation of the Specified Members to indemnify pursuant to clause (v) of the first sentence of this Section 9.1(b), Pubco shall proceed against each Specified Member in proportion to their respective direct or indirect ownership (including through trusts or other entities controlled by such Specified Member) in the applicable Tempus Jets Entity.

9.2 Indemnification Procedures.

(a) In the event of the assertion or commencement by any Person of any Proceeding (whether against an Indemnified Party or against any other Person) with respect to which such Indemnified Party may be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article IX, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right, at its election, to proceed with the defense of such Proceeding on its own (subject to the exceptions set forth in this Section 9.2(a)). The election by the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim shall constitute a waiver by the Indemnifying Party, as between it and the Indemnified Party, of the right to dispute the obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party in connection therewith, subject to the limitations set forth herein. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense of any Third Party Claim the defense of which has been assumed by the Indemnifying Party and to employ counsel separate from the counsel employed by the Indemnifying Party, it being agreed, subject to the following sentence, that the Indemnifying Party shall control such defense and shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if (i) the Indemnifying Party does not elect to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim, (ii) the named parties (including any impleaded parties) to a Proceeding in connection therewith include both the Indemnified Party (or any of its Related Persons) and the Indemnifying Party (or any of its Related Persons) and the Indemnified Party reasonably concludes, in consultation with counsel, that there is a conflict of interest between it and the Indemnifying Party (or any of its Related Persons), (iii) such Third Party Claim involves a charge of criminal liability, (iv) the Indemnified Party determines in good faith that the Damages which are reasonably likely to be incurred as a result of such Third Party Claim would exceed the remaining amount available under the limitation set forth in Section 9.4(b), (v) the Third Party Claim seeks, in addition to or in lieu of monetary damages, specific performance or any injunctive or other equitable relief, (vi) the Third Party Claim directly involves a material customer or supplier of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any Governmental Authority, (vii) an insurance carrier requires, as a condition to an Indemnified Party’s eligibility to recover insurance proceeds on account of such Third Party Claim, that such carrier control the defense of such Third Party Claim (and such defense is controlled by such carrier), (viii) the Indemnifying Party is not reasonably, diligently and in good faith conducting a defense of the Third Party Claim or (ix) if the Indemnified Parties include a Parent Indemnified Party, the Third Party Claim involves a Proceeding contemplated by Section 6.5(e) to be controlled by a Parent Party; then, in any such case, following written notice to the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to assume the defense thereof and the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the fees and expenses of one separate counsel (together with one local counsel) selected by the Indemnified Party to represent the Indemnified Party in connection therewith.

(b) The Indemnifying Party shall not effect, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, any settlement, compromise or discharge of a Third Party Claim unless the same (x) involves an unconditional release of all claims against the Indemnified Party in form and substance satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, (y) is limited to the payment of monetary damages by the Indemnifying Party and (z) does not include any statement or admission as to fault, culpability, or failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Party. If the Indemnified Party effects any settlement, compromise or discharge of a Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, the amount of such settlement or compromise shall not be determinative of any Damages payable by the Indemnifying Party hereunder.

(c) If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, then the Indemnified Party will cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in the review, investigation and defense of any such claim, and shall, upon reasonable prior written notice and during normal business hours, in a manner so as not to unreasonably interfere in any material respect with normal business operations, make available its personnel, and provide such access to its books and records as is reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party, as applicable, in connection therewith.

(d) In the event that any Indemnified Party desires to seek indemnification under this Article IX, the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, which shall state the basis for such indemnification claim and, to the extent known or reasonably calculable, an estimate and calculation of the amount of Damages resulting therefrom; provided, however, that any failure on the part of the Indemnified Party to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not limit any of the obligations of any of the Indemnifying Party or any of the rights of any Indemnified Party, under this Article IX (except to the extent, and only to the extent, that such failure adversely prejudices the Indemnifying Party). If the Indemnifying Party disputes a claim for indemnification or any portion thereof, the Indemnifying Party shall notify the Indemnified Party in writing (which writing shall set forth the grounds for such objection) within ten (10) Business Days after its receipt of notice of such claim for indemnification, whereupon the Indemnified Party and Indemnifying Party shall meet and attempt in good faith to resolve their differences with respect to such claim or any portion of such claim for indemnification. If the dispute has not been resolved within thirty (30) days after the Indemnifying Party’s notice of such dispute, either the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party may proceed with pursuing the remedies provided herein to resolve such dispute. In the event that no written notice disputing or objecting to such claim or any portion of such claim for indemnification is delivered by the Indemnifying Party prior to the expiration of the ten (10) Business Days in which the Indemnifying Party may dispute such claim for indemnification, the claim(s) stated by the Indemnified Party shall be conclusively deemed to be approved by the Indemnifying Party.

(e) All Damages indemnifiable hereunder shall be payable by the Indemnifying Party to Pubco in cash; provided, that, (A) if the Specified Members are the Indemnifying Party, then at the election of the Indemnifying Party by written notice to the Indemnified Party, the amount of any Damages indemnifiable under Sections 9.1(b)(i), 9.1(b)(iii), 9.1(b)(iv) and 9.1(b)(v), as applicable (excluding any Damages resulting from a Willful Breach) may be satisfied by the cancellation of the number of shares of Pubco Common Stock held by the Specified Members, and (B) if Pubco is the Indemnifying Party, then in all cases the amount of any Damages indemnifiable under Section 9.1(a), shall be satisfied by the issuance of the number of shares of Pubco Common Stock to the Specified Members, in each case representing the number of shares of Pubco Common Stock that, when valued at the VWAP, has a value equal to the amount of such indemnifiable Damages.

(f) Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, no exercise of, nor failure to exercise, the rights set forth in this Section 9.2 shall constitute an election of remedies or limit such Indemnified Party’s other rights hereunder or otherwise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (i) the aggregate liability of a Specified Member under, or related to, this Agreement shall in no event exceed such Specified Member’s Pro Rata Percentage of the Base Company Value, (ii) except with respect to a breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made by a Specified Member in Article IV or a failure of such Specified Member to perform a covenant or agreement applicable to such Specified Member, no Specified Member shall have any liability in excess of his, her or its Pro Rata Percentage of any Damages recoverable under Section 9.1(b), and (iii) no Specified Member shall have any liability for any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made by any other Specified Member in Article IV or a failure of any other Specified Member to perform a covenant or agreement applicable to such other Specified Member. The term “Pro Rata Percentage” means with respect to each Specified Member, the proportion of the number of issued and outstanding Company Units held by such Specified Member immediately prior to the Closing as compared to the total number of Company Units held by all Specified Members immediately prior to the Closing. Nothing in this Section 9.2(f) shall prevent or prohibit a Party from seeking and/or obtaining specific performance or any other equitable remedy in accordance with Section 12.3. Any cash payment required under this Section shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account or accounts designated in writing by the payee.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (i) the Chart Representative shall have the sole right to act on behalf of Pubco and the other Parent Indemnified Parties (and their respective successors and assigns) with respect to any indemnification claims made pursuant to this Article IX, including bringing and settling any claims hereunder and receiving any notices on behalf of Pubco and the other Parent Indemnified Parties, and (ii) the Members’ Representative shall have the sole right to act on behalf of the Specified Members and the other Seller Indemnified Parties (and their respective successors and assigns) with respect to any indemnification claims made pursuant to this Article IX, including bringing and settling any claims hereunder and receiving any notices on behalf of the Specified Members and the other Seller Indemnified Parties.

9.3 Survival of Representations, Warranties and Covenants. Each covenant and agreement contained in this Agreement or in any certificate delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the Closing and be enforceable until such covenant or agreement has been fully performed. All representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or in any certificate delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the Closing until the date that is twelve (12) months after the Closing Date, and shall thereafter expire. The limitations on survival set forth in this Section 9.3 shall not apply to (a) the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.1(a) (Organization and Corporate Power), 3.2 (Authority for Agreement), 3.3 (No Violation to Result), 3.4 (Capitalization), 3.10 (Taxes), 3.26 (Brokers), 4.1 (Authority for Agreement), 4.2 (No Violation to Result), 4.3 (Ownership), 4.6 (Brokers), 5.1 (Organization), and 5.2 (Authority for Agreement), 5.3 (No Violation to Result), 5.5 (Capitalization), and 5.13 (Taxes), all of which shall survive until sixty (60) days after expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, (b) the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.16 (Anti-Corruption Laws; Certain Regulatory Matters), which shall survive until the date six (6) years from the Closing Date, (c) the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.8 (Employee Benefit Plans), Section 3.14 (Government Contracts and Bids) and Section 3.18 (Environmental and Safety Matters), which shall survive until the date three (3) years from the Closing Date or (d) claims based on criminal matters, fraud or Willful Breach, which shall survive without limitation. No claim may be made for indemnification hereunder for breach of any representations, warranties or covenants after the expiration of the survival period applicable to such representation, warranty and covenant set forth above; provided that, any representation, warranty or covenant with respect to which a claim has been made for a breach thereon prior to any of the foregoing dates shall, only with respect to such claim, survive until such claim is resolved.

9.4 Limitations on Indemnification.

(a) An Indemnifying Party shall have no liability to indemnify for Damages pursuant to Section 9.1(a)(i) or 9.1(b)(i), as applicable, unless and until the aggregate amount of all Damages for all claims asserted by the Seller Indemnified Parties, collectively, or the Parent Indemnified Parties, collectively, as applicable, exceeds Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) (the “Deductible”); provided, however, that after the amount of such Damages exceeds the Deductible, all such Damages in excess of the Deductible shall, subject to the other limitations set forth in this Article IX, be recoverable by the applicable Indemnified Parties; provided, further, that the foregoing limitations shall not apply to (i) the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.1(a) (Organization and Corporate Power), 3.2 (Authority for Agreement), 3.3 (No Violation to Result), 3.4 (Capitalization), 3.10 (Taxes), 4.1 (Authority for Agreement), 4.2 (No Violation to Result), 4.3 (Ownership), 5.1 (Organization), 5.2 (Authority for Agreement), 5.3 (No Violation to Result), 5.5 (Capitalization), 5.6 (Listing), 5.7 (Trust Fund) and 5.13 (Taxes) or (ii) claims based on fraud or Willful Breach, with respect to which, in each case, all Damages in connection therewith shall be recoverable from the first dollar and shall be counted in determining whether the thresholds in this Section 9.4(a) have been exceeded. For purposes of determining the amount of any Damages with respect to (but not for purposes of determining the existence of) any breach of any representation, warranty or covenant for purposes of indemnification under this Article IX, any qualification or limitation of a representation, warranty or covenant by reference to materiality of matters stated therein or as to matters having or not having “Material Adverse Effect,” “materiality” or words of similar effect, shall be disregarded.

(b) The indemnification obligations of the Indemnifying Party pursuant to Section 9.1(a)(i) or 9.1(b)(i), as applicable, shall be limited to an amount equal to 15% of the Base Company Value (the “Cap”); provided (i) that to the extent that any Damages indemnifiable under Section 9.1(b)(i) with respect to the breach of Section 3.14 (Government Contracts and Bids) are otherwise precluded by the Cap, such Damages, up to an aggregate amount equal to 50% of the Base Company Value (which for avoidance of doubt shall include and not be in addition to the amount of the Cap that would otherwise be applicable), shall not be so limited by this sentence, and (ii) that the foregoing limitation shall not apply to the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.1(a) (Organization and Corporate Power), 3.2 (Authority for Agreement), 3.3 (No Violation to Result), 3.4 (Capitalization), 3.10 (Taxes), 4.1 (Authority for Agreement), 4.2 (No Violation to Result), 4.3 (Ownership), 5.1 (Organization), 5.2 (Authority for Agreement), 5.3 (No Violation to Result), 5.5 (Capitalization), 5.6 (Listing), 5.7 (Trust Fund) and 5.13 (Taxes), which shall be limited to an amount equal to the Base Company Value, or (iii) claims based on fraud or Willful Breach, which shall not be limited in amount.

(c) Except with respect to claims based on fraud or willful misconduct or actions seeking specific performance, the indemnification obligations of the Parties pursuant to this Article IX shall be the Parties’, any other Seller Indemnified Parties’ and any other Parent Indemnified Parties’ sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any claim related to or arising from this Agreement, the negotiation and execution of this Agreement, the performance by the Parties of their respective obligations hereunder, and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

9.5 Mitigation, etc.

(a) The Indemnified Party shall, and is obligated to, take all commercially reasonable steps to mitigate all indemnifiable Damages upon and after becoming aware of any event which could reasonably be expected to give rise to any Damages hereunder, and the Indemnified Party shall use reasonable efforts to seek recovery under all available insurance policies covering any Damages for which such Indemnified Party is seeking indemnification; provided, however, that that exhaustion of all such efforts by the Indemnified Party shall not be a precondition to recovery of Damages by such Indemnified Party in accordance with this Article IX; provided, further, that if the Indemnified Party is a Parent Indemnified Party, then such Parent Indemnified Party shall not be liable for any failure to comply with its obligations under this sentence to the extent that the Members (A) act to prevent or materially impede Pubco or its Subsidiaries from complying, or (B) who are officers of Pubco or its Subsidiary, fail to take the steps reasonably required hereunder to mitigate such damages unless otherwise instructed by both the board of directors of Pubco and the Chart Representative or such steps are not within their scope of authority. Notwithstanding anything in this Article IX to the contrary, in no event shall Pubco, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any other Parent Indemnified Party be obligated to seek indemnification or otherwise recover any amounts from (nor shall the Members be subrogated to the rights of Pubco, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any other Parent Indemnified Party) a material customer or supplier of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. No Indemnified Party shall be obligated to commence or threaten to commence a Proceeding pursuant to this Section 9.5 unless the Indemnifying Party (i) shall have reasonably requested in writing that the Indemnified Party commence such Proceeding, (ii) acknowledges in writing that it is liable for all costs and expenses of such Proceeding and (iii) pays all such costs and expenses as and when incurred in connection with pursuing such Proceeding; it being acknowledged and agreed that, if the Indemnifying Party fails to pay all such costs and expenses as and when incurred, the Indemnified Party shall not be obligated to continue to pursue such Proceeding.

(b) The amount of any Damages indemnifiable under this Article IX shall be net of any amounts actually recovered by the Indemnified Party under insurance policies, third party indemnities or other collateral sources with respect to such Damages. In the event any amounts recovered from such sources are not received before a claim for indemnification is paid pursuant to this Article IX then the amount of such recovery shall be applied first, to reimburse the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, on a pro rata basis, for any out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses) expended by them in pursuing such recovery or defending any claims arising therefrom, second, to refund any payments made by the Indemnifying Party which would not have been so paid had such recovery been obtained prior to such payment (taking into account the first sentence of this Section 9.5(b)) and, third, any excess to the Indemnified Party.

(c) The amount of Damages with respect to which an Indemnified Party is to be indemnified pursuant to this Agreement shall initially be determined without regard to any Tax benefit or Tax detriment, and the indemnification payment shall be made on such basis. To the extent, however, that the Indemnified Party recognizes a Tax benefit or Tax detriment with respect to any Damages for which payment is made hereunder, after taking into account the Tax effect, if any, of such indemnification (the “Net Tax Effect”), the Indemnified Party (in the case of a Tax benefit) or the Indemnifying Party (in the case of a Tax detriment) shall pay to the Indemnifying Party (in the case of a Tax benefit) or the Indemnified Party (in the case of a Tax detriment) the amount of such Net Tax Effect at such time or times as and to the extent such Indemnified Party or Indemnifying Party, as applicable, or any of their Affiliates realizes such Net Tax Effect through a refund, reduction or increase in Tax otherwise payable, calculated by computing the amount of Tax with and without taking into account any Tax items attributable to such Damages and the indemnification payment with respect to such Damages.

(d) The Indemnifying Party shall have no right of subrogation, reimbursement or similar right against any Person with respect to such Indemnifying Party’s obligations under this Agreement. Each Party hereby irrevocably waives all such rights, and agrees not to institute any Proceedings against any other Person with respect to the same.

9.6 Waiver, Release and Discharge. Effective as of the Closing, except for any rights, obligations or claims arising under any Transaction Document, each of the Members, in each case for itself and its Affiliates, hereby irrevocably waives, releases and discharges (i) the Parent Parties and their respective Affiliates, directors, officers and employees (determined in each case prior to the consummation of the Transaction) and (ii) the Company, its Subsidiaries and their employees (other than the Members) from any and all Liabilities and obligations to such Member of any kind or nature whatsoever, whether as a member, option holder, officer, director or Company Employee or otherwise (including in respect of rights of contribution or indemnification), in each case whether absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, known or unknown at law or equity, or otherwise and which are based on acts, events or omissions occurring up to and including the Closing; provided, however, that the Parties acknowledge and agree that this Section 9.6 does not apply to, and shall not constitute a waiver, release or discharge of, (i) to the extent that such releasing party is an employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, such releasing party’s right to any salary or wages, and entitlements to employee expense reimbursements and contributions to Benefit Plans, in each case to the extent accrued, earned or otherwise due to such releasing Party prior to the Closing and (ii) the releasing party’s or its Affiliates’ rights in connection with any matter listed on Schedule 6.10 or against Persons other than the Parent Parties and the Company and its Subsidiaries with respect to the Tempus Jets Entities.

(a) Each of the Members designates ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ III as such Member’s representative (acting together, or either of them acting individually, the “Members’ Representative”) for purposes of this Agreement, and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ III each agrees to act as the Members’ Representative as set forth herein. Each of the Members and each of their respective successors shall be deemed to have approved, and shall be bound by, any and all actions taken by the Members’ Representative on their behalf under or otherwise relating to this Agreement and the Transactions as if such actions were expressly ratified and confirmed by each of them. In the event that the Members’ Representative is unable or unwilling to serve or shall resign, a successor Members’ Representative shall be selected by the holders of a majority of the Company Units outstanding immediately prior to the Closing. A Members’ Representative may not resign, except upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Parent Parties. In the event of a notice of proposed resignation, or any death, disability or other replacement of a Members’ Representative, a successor, if needed, shall be appointed effective immediately thereafter, and the Parent Parties shall be notified promptly of such appointment by such successor Members’ Representative. No resignation, nor any other replacement, of any Members’ Representative is effective against the Parent Parties until selection of a successor and prior written notice to the Parent Parties of such selection. Each successor Members’ Representative shall have all of the power, rights, authority and privileges hereby conferred upon the original Members’ Representative.

(b) The Parent Parties shall be entitled to rely upon any communication or writing given or executed by the Members’ Representative on behalf of the Members. All communications or writings to be sent to the Members pursuant to this Agreement may be addressed to the Members’ Representative and any communication or writing so sent shall be deemed notice to all of the Members hereunder. Each Member hereby consents and agrees that the Members’ Representative is authorized to accept deliveries, including any notice, on behalf of each Member pursuant hereto.

(c) The Members’ Representative is hereby appointed and constituted the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of each Member with full power of substitution in such Member’s name and on such Member’s behalf to act according to the terms of the Transaction Documents in the absolute discretion of the Members’ Representative; and in general to do all things and to perform all acts including executing and delivering all agreements, certificates, receipts, instructions, notices and other instruments contemplated by or deemed advisable in connection with this Agreement, including this Article IX and the other Transaction Documents. This power of attorney and all authority hereby conferred is granted subject to the interest of the other Members hereunder and in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements made herein, and shall be irrevocable and shall not be terminated by any act of any Member, by operation of Law, by such Member’s death or disability, or by any other event.

(d) The Members’ Representative shall not have any liability to any of the Members for any act done or omitted hereunder or otherwise in connection with the performance of its duties under this Section 9.7 as the Members’ Representative while acting in good faith and in the exercise of reasonable judgment. The Members’ Representative shall be indemnified by the Members for and shall be held harmless against any loss, liability or expense (including any out-of-pocket costs, legal fees and other legal costs) incurred by the Members’ Representative or any of its Affiliates and any of their respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, stockholders, consultants, attorneys, accountants, advisors, brokers, representatives or controlling persons, in each case, relating to the Members’ Representative’s conduct as Members’ Representative, other than losses, liabilities or expenses that have been finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to result from the Members’ Representative’s fraud in connection with its performance under this Section 9.7. This indemnification shall survive the termination of this Agreement. The Members’ Representative may, in all questions arising under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, rely on the advice of counsel, public accountants or other independent experts it reasonably determines to be experienced in the matter at issue, and will not be liable to any of the Parties or to the Members for anything done, omitted or suffered in good faith by the Members’ Representative in accordance with such advice. In no event shall the Members’ Representative be liable hereunder or under any other Transaction Document for any indirect, punitive, special or consequential damages.

9.8 Chart Representative.

(a) Each of the Parent Parties, on behalf of themselves and their Subsidiaries and their respective successors and assigns, by execution and delivery of this Agreement, hereby appoints Chart Acquisition Group, LLC, in its capacity as the Chart Representative, as each such Person’s agent, attorney-in-fact and representative, with full power of substitution to act in the name, place and stead of such Person, to act on behalf of such Person in connection with: (i) bringing, managing, controlling, defending and settling on behalf of a Parent Indemnified Party any indemnification claims by or against a Parent Indemnified Party under Article IX, including controlling, defending, managing, settling and participating in any Third Party Claim in accordance with Section 9.2, (ii) making on behalf of any such Person any determinations and taking all actions on their behalf relating to the Adjustment Amount under Section 1.15 or the Earnout Payments under Section 1.16 and any disputes with respect thereto, and (iii) otherwise enforcing the rights and obligations of any such Persons, under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents; provided, that the Parties acknowledge that the Chart Representative is specifically authorized and directed to act on behalf of, and for the benefit of, the holders of Parent’s equity securities (other than the Members and their successors and assigns). All decisions and actions by the Chart Representative, including any agreement between the Chart Representative and a Specified Member or other Seller Indemnified Party relating to the defense or settlement of any claims for which a Specified Member may be required to indemnify a Parent Indemnified Party pursuant to Article IX or for which Pubco may be required to indemnify a Seller Indemnified Party pursuant to Article IX, shall be binding upon all of the Parent Parties, and no Parent Party shall have the right to object, dissent, protest or otherwise contest the same. The provisions of this Section 9.8 are irrevocable and coupled with an interest.

(b) The Chart Representative shall not be liable for any act done or omitted under any Transaction Document as the Chart Representative while acting in good faith and in the exercise of reasonable judgment, and any act done or omitted pursuant to the advice of counsel shall be conclusive evidence of such good faith. The Parent Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify the Chart Representative and hold the Chart Representative harmless against any damages, Liability, Damage or expense incurred without gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the Chart Representative and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the Chart Representative’s duties under this Agreement, including the reasonable fees and expenses of any legal counsel retained by the Chart Representative. In no event shall the Chart Representative in such capacity be liable hereunder or in connection herewith for any indirect, punitive, special or consequential damages. The Chart Representative shall be fully protected against the Parent Parties in relying upon any written notice, demand, certificate or document that it in good faith believes to be genuine, including facsimiles or copies thereof. No Person shall have any Liability for relying on the Chart Representative in the foregoing manner. In connection with the performance of its rights and obligations hereunder, the Chart Representative shall have the right at any time and from time to time to select and engage, at the cost and expense of the Parent Parties, attorneys, accountants, investment bankers, advisors, consultants and clerical personnel and obtain such other professional and expert assistance, maintain such records and incur other out-of-pocket expenses, as the Chart Representative may deem necessary or desirable from time to time. All of the indemnities, immunities, releases and powers granted to the Chart Representative under this Section 9.8 shall survive the Closing.

(c) The Person serving as the Chart Representative may resign upon ten (10) days’ prior written notice to the Parties, provided, that the Chart Representative appoints a replacement Chart Representative. Each successor Chart Representative shall have all of the power, authority, rights and privileges conferred by this Agreement upon the original Chart Representative, and the term “Chart Representative” as used herein shall be deemed to include any such successor Chart Representatives.

(vii) by the Members’ Representative, on the one hand, or by Parent, on the other hand, if there shall be a final nonappealable order of a federal or state court in effect preventing the consummation of the Transactions; or there shall be any action taken, or any statute, rule, regulation or order enacted, promulgated or issued or deemed applicable to the Transactions by any Governmental Authority that would make the consummation of the transactions illegal; or

Article XI
TRUST FUND WAIVER

11.1 Trust Fund Waiver. Reference is made to the final prospectus of Parent dated December 13, 2012 (File No. 333-177280) (the “Prospectus”). Each of the Seller Parties warrants and represents, jointly and severally, that such Seller Party has read the Prospectus and understands that Parent has established the Trust Fund containing the proceeds of the IPO initially in the amount of at least Seventy-Five Million Dollars ($75,000,000) for the benefit of Parent’s public stockholders and certain other parties (including the underwriters of the IPO) and that Parent may disburse monies from the Trust Fund, including any proceeds therefrom, only as provided in the Prospectus. For and in consideration of Parent agreeing to enter into this Agreement and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, each of the Seller Parties agrees (for itself and on behalf of its Affiliates and direct and indirect subsidiaries and members, and its and their respective successors and assigns, and any Person claiming by or through such Seller Party) that, notwithstanding any provisions contained in this Agreement, such Seller Party does not now have, and shall not at any time prior to the Closing have, any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to, or make any claim against, the Trust Fund or any asset contained therein (or any distribution therefrom occurring prior to the Closing in accordance with the terms of the Trust Agreements), regardless of whether such claim arises as a result of, in connection with or relating in any way to, any proposed or actual business relationship between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and Parent, on the other hand, this Agreement or any other agreement or any other matter, and regardless of whether such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability. Each of the Seller Parties (for itself and on behalf of its Affiliates and direct and indirect subsidiaries and members, and its and their respective successors and assigns, and any Person claiming by or through such Seller Party) hereby irrevocably waives any and all rights, titles, interests and claims of any kind that such Seller Party may have, now or in the future (in each case, however, prior to the consummation of a business combination), and shall not take any action or suit, make any claim or demand or seek recovery of any Liability or recourse against, the Trust Fund (or any distribution therefrom occurring prior to the Closing in accordance with the terms of the Trust Agreements) for any reason whatsoever in respect thereof. Each of the Seller Parties agrees and acknowledges that such irrevocable waiver is material to this Agreement and specifically relied upon by Parent and its Affiliates to induce them to enter into this Agreement. Each of the Seller Parties further intends and understands such waiver to be valid, binding and enforceable under applicable Law. To the extent that any of the Seller Parties or the Members’ Representative commences any action or Proceeding based upon, in connection with, relating to or arising out of any matter relating to Parent, which Proceeding seeks, in whole or in part, monetary relief against Parent, each of the Seller Parties hereby acknowledges and agrees such Seller Party’s sole remedy shall be against funds held outside of the Trust Fund and that such claim shall not permit such Seller Party (or any party claiming on such Seller Party’s behalf or in lieu of such Seller Party) to have any claim against the Trust Fund or any amounts contained therein (or any distribution therefrom occurring prior to the Closing in accordance with the terms of the Trust Agreements). In the event that any Seller Party or the Members’ Representative commences any action or Proceeding based upon, in connection with, relating to or arising out of any matter relating to Parent, which Proceeding seeks, in whole or in part, relief against the Trust Fund (or any distribution therefrom occurring prior to the Closing in accordance with the terms of the Trust Agreements) or Parent’s public stockholders, whether in the form of money damages or injunctive relief, Parent shall be entitled to recover from such Seller Party or the Members’ Representative, as applicable, the associated legal fees and costs in connection with any such action, in the event Parent prevails in such action or Proceeding.

Article XII
MISCELLANEOUS

12.1 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Parties and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that no Party may make any assignment of this Agreement or any interest herein without the prior written consent of Parent, the Chart Representative and the Members’ Representative. Any such purported assignment without such prior written consent shall be void and of no force or effect.

12.2 Governing Law. All disputes, claims or controversies arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the negotiation, validity or performance of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall in all respects be interpreted, construed and governed by and in accordance with the Laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflicts of laws principles.

12.3 Specific Performance; Remedies.

(a) Each Party acknowledges that the other Parties shall be irreparably harmed and that there shall be no adequate remedy at Law for any violation or breach, or threatened breach, by any of them of any of the covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement, and that any breach or threatened breach of this Agreement by a Party hereto, including such Party’s failure to take all actions as are necessary on such Party’s part in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement to consummate the Transactions, would not be adequately compensated by monetary damages alone. It is accordingly agreed, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, that, subject to Section 12.3(b), in addition to, but not in lieu of, any other remedies that may be available upon the breach of any such covenants or agreements (including monetary Damages), each Party shall have the right to obtain injunctive relief to restrain a breach or threatened breach of, or otherwise to obtain specific performance of, the other Parties’ covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement. Each Party hereby agrees (i) to waive the defense in any such suit that the other Parties have an adequate remedy at law, (ii) not to raise any objections to the availability of the equitable remedy of specific performance to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of the other Parties under this Agreement, and (iii) to waive any requirement to post any bond, in each case, in connection with obtaining such relief. All rights and remedies of the Parties under this Agreement shall be cumulative, and the exercise of one or more rights or remedies shall not preclude the exercise of any other right or remedy available under this Agreement or applicable Law.

(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary (including Section 12.3(a)), the Parties explicitly agree that no Seller Party, on the one hand, and no Parent Party, on the other hand, shall be entitled to seek an injunction or other form of specific performance or equitable relief described in Section 12.3(a), to cause (x) the Closing to be consummated or (y) the Per Company Unit Consideration to be issued, unless each of the following conditions has been satisfied:

(i) all of the conditions set forth in Article VII and Article VIII shall have been satisfied or waived (other than those conditions that, by their nature, are to be satisfied at the Closing, which conditions shall be capable of being satisfied); and

(ii) The Parent Parties or the Seller Parties, as applicable, are required to complete the Closing pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and fail to complete the Closing in accordance with the terms hereof.

(c) Without limiting any other remedy available under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or applicable Law, in the event that any Member is required by this Agreement to transfer any shares of Pubco Common Stock to Pubco or its Affiliates (including any shares for the Adjustment Amount pursuant to Section 1.15(e) or Earnout Shares pursuant to Section 1.16(f)) and fails to do so promptly after request by Pubco or its Representatives in accordance with this Agreement, then Pubco shall be and hereby is authorized as the attorney-in-fact for such Member to transfer such shares to Pubco, and may transfer such shares and cancel the stock certificates for such shares on its books and records and issue new stock certificates to such transferee and may instruct its agents and any exchanges on which shares of Pubco Common Stock are listed or traded to do the same.

12.4 Severability. Each section, subsection and lesser section of this Agreement constitutes a separate and distinct undertaking, covenant and/or provision hereof. In the event that any provision of this Agreement shall finally be determined to be unlawful, such provision shall be deemed severed from this Agreement, but every other provision of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect; provided, however, that the Parties will attempt in good faith to agree to replace such unlawful provision with a valid and enforceable provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other potential purposes of such unlawful provision.

12.5 Amendment. This Agreement may be amended, supplemented or modified only by execution of a written instrument signed by the Chart Representative and the Members’ Representative.

12.6 Waiver. The Chart Representative on behalf of any Parent Party, on the one hand, or any Seller Party or the Members’ Representative, on the other hand, may to the extent permitted by applicable Law (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the Seller Parties, the Members’ Representative or the Parent Parties, as applicable, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of the Seller Parties, the Members’ Representative or the Parent Parties, as applicable, contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto or (c) waive compliance with any of the agreements of the Seller Parties, the Members’ Representative or the Parent Parties, as applicable, contained herein. No such extension or waiver shall be effective unless set forth in a written instrument duly executed by or on behalf of the Party extending the time of performance or waiving any such inaccuracy or non-compliance. No waiver by any Party of any term of this Agreement, in any one or more instances, shall be deemed to be or construed as a waiver of the same or any other term of this Agreement on any future occasion.

12.7 Notices. All notices, requests, consents, waivers and other communications required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given (a) if personally delivered, upon delivery or refusal of delivery, (b) if mailed by registered or certified United States mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, upon delivery or refusal of delivery, (c) if sent by a nationally recognized overnight delivery service, upon delivery or refusal of delivery, or (d) if sent by facsimile or electronic mail, upon confirmation of delivery.

Without limiting the effect of Article IX, all Expenses of the Parties shall be borne by the Person incurring such Expense, except that if the Transactions are consummated, the Company shall pay all Expenses of the Company and its Subsidiaries, the Parent Parties, the Chart Representative, the Members and the Members’ Representative, including any broker fees and expenses.

12.9 Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial; Service of Process. Subject to Sections 1.15 and 1.16(c) the Parties agree that any proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any matter arising out of or in connection with, this Agreement, prior to the Closing, shall be brought in any Chancery Court of the State of Delaware, provided, that if (and only after) such courts determine that they lack subject matter jurisdiction over any such legal action, suit or proceeding, such legal action, suit or proceeding shall be brought in the Federal courts of the United States located in the State of Delaware (and in each case, in any court in which appeal from such courts may be taken). Each Party hereby irrevocably (a) submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in Delaware (and in any court in which appeal from such courts may be taken); (b) waives, and agrees not to assert, any claim that it is not subject to the jurisdiction of, or any objection to the laying of venue in, any such courts or that such action has been commenced in an improper or inconvenient forum; and (c) agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by U.S. registered mail to such Party’s address as provided herein shall be effective with respect to any matter for which it has submitted to jurisdiction hereby. The foregoing shall not constitute a general consent to service of process and shall have no effect for any purpose except as set forth in this Section 12.9. EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT. Each Party (x) certifies that no Representative of the other Party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other Party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver and (y) acknowledges that it and the other Party has been induced to enter into the agreements contemplated hereby by, among other things, the mutual waivers, agreements and certifications in this Section 12.9.

12.10 Arbitration.

(a) Except as set forth in Sections 1.15, 1.16(c), 12.3, 12.9 and 12.10(d) hereof, any dispute, difference, controversy or claim arising in connection with or related or incidental to, or question occurring under, this Agreement or the subject matter hereof after the Closing shall be finally settled under the Commercial Arbitration Rules (the “Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), unless otherwise agreed, by an arbitral tribunal composed of three (3) arbitrators, at least one (1) of whom shall be an attorney experienced in corporate transactions, appointed by agreement of the Chart Representative and the Members’ Representative in accordance with said Rules. In the event the Chart Representative and the Members’ Representative fail to agree upon a panel of arbitrators from the first list of potential arbitrators proposed by the AAA, the AAA will submit a second list in accordance with such Rules. In the event the Chart Representative and the Members’ Representative shall have failed to agree upon a full panel of arbitrators from such second list, any remaining arbitrators to be selected shall be appointed by the AAA in accordance with such Rules. If at the time of the arbitration the Chart Representative and the Members’ Representative agree in writing to submit the dispute to a single arbitrator, such single arbitrator shall be appointed by agreement of the Chart Representative and the Members’ Representative in connection with the foregoing procedure or failing such agreement by the AAA in accordance with such Rules. All arbitrators shall be neutral arbitrators and subject to Rule 19 of the Rules.

(b) The arbitrators shall apply the Laws of the State of Delaware, shall not have the authority to add to, detract from, or modify any provision hereof and shall not award punitive damages to any injured Party or to the Members’ Representative. A decision by a majority of the arbitrators shall be final, conclusive and binding. The arbitrators shall deliver a written and reasoned award with respect to the dispute to each of the parties to the dispute, difference, controversy or claim, who shall promptly act in accordance therewith. Any arbitration Proceeding shall be held in the State of Delaware.

(c) The arbitration Proceedings conducted pursuant hereto shall be confidential. No Party shall disclose any information about the arbitration Proceedings or the evidence adduced by the other Parties in any arbitration Proceeding or about documents provided by the other Parties in connection with the Proceeding except in the course of a judicial, regulatory or arbitration Proceeding or as may be requested by a Governmental Authority or as required or advisable under Law or exchange rules. Before making any disclosure permitted by the preceding sentence, the Party intending to make such disclosure shall give the other Parties reasonable written notice of the intended disclosure. The Parties shall sign, and the arbitrator, expert witnesses and stenographic reporters shall be asked to sign, appropriate non-disclosure agreements or orders in order to effectuate this Agreement of the Parties as to confidentiality.

(d) The Parties hereby exclude any right of appeal to any court on the merits of the dispute. The provisions of this Section 12.10 may be enforced in any court having jurisdiction over the award or any of the Parties or any of their respective assets, and judgment on the award (including equitable remedies) granted in any arbitration hereunder may be entered in any such court. Nothing contained in this Section 12.10 shall prevent any Party from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction, without the need to resort to arbitration.

12.11 Complete Agreement. This Agreement, the Transaction Documents and the other documents expressly referred to herein, including all appendices, exhibits and schedules hereto, and the other documents of even date herewith, embody the complete agreement and understanding among the Parties and supersede and preempt any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or among the Parties, written or oral, that may have related to the subject matter hereof. Notwithstanding the right of a Party to investigate the assets, properties, books, records and financial condition of the other Party, and notwithstanding any knowledge obtained or obtainable by such Party as a result of such investigation, such Party has the unqualified right to rely upon, and has relied upon, each of the representations and warranties made by the other Party in this Agreement or pursuant hereto. No information or knowledge obtained or capable of being obtained in any investigation by a Party (or in any list, certificate, schedule or other instrument, document, agreement or writing furnished or to be furnished to or made pursuant hereto) shall affect or be deemed to modify any representation or warranty of the other Parties contained herein or the conditions to the obligations of the Parties to consummate the Transactions. No claim by a Party in connection with this Agreement shall be adversely affected by any investigation by or opportunity to investigate afforded to such Party, nor shall such a claim be adversely affected by such Party’s knowledge on or before the Closing Date of any breach or of any state of facts that may give rise to such a breach. The waiver of any condition based on the accuracy of any representation or warranty, or on the performance of or compliance with any covenant or obligation, shall not adversely affect the right to indemnification, payment of Damages or other remedy based on such representations, warranties, covenants or obligations.

12.12 Absence of Third Party Beneficiary Rights.
