All amounts required to be withheld from Phantom Unit Holders in respect of Phantom Unit Consideration shall be withheld from such Phantom Unit Holder’s Phantom Unit Cash Consideration, and the Company and TCB shall ensure that there is sufficient Phantom Unit Cash Consideration payable to each Phantom Unit Holder to fully satisfy the Tax withholding obligations in respect to all Phantom Unit Consideration payable or issuable to such Phantom Unit Holder. Amounts withheld hereunder shall be timely paid over to the appropriate taxing authority.

Section 3.01 Closing Estimates. Not less than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing, the Company shall prepare and deliver to Buyer a statement (the “Estimated Statement”) reflecting (i) the Company’s calculation of the Closing Consideration and the Blocker Seller Closing Consideration (including, in each case, each of the components thereof), which shall be calculated on a basis consistent with this Agreement, including, as applicable, Exhibit A and shall include reasonable supporting detail to evidence the calculation of the amounts contained therein, and (ii) an estimated unaudited balance sheet of the Company as of the Calculation Time. In connection with determining the Closing Consideration and the Blocker Seller Closing Consideration, the Company shall estimate in good faith the Closing Net Working Capital Adjustment (the “Estimated Net Working Capital Adjustment”), the Closing Indebtedness (the “Estimated Indebtedness”), the Closing Blocker Indebtedness (the “Estimated Blocker Indebtedness”), the Closing Cash (“Estimated Cash”), the Closing Blocker Cash (the “Estimated Blocker Cash”), and the Equity Holder Expenses (the “Estimated Equity Holder Expenses”), which shall, in each case, be calculated on a basis consistent with this Agreement, including, as applicable, Exhibit A. Not less than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing, the Company shall prepare and deliver to Buyer a schedule (the “Payout Schedule”) showing (a) the amount of the Closing Consideration, (b) the allocation of the Naturium Seller Closing Cash Consideration among the Naturium Sellers, including a calculation of the number of Units that are held by the Naturium Sellers as a result of the consummation of the Blocker Redemption (such Units, the “Naturium Seller Units”), (c) the allocation of the Stock Consideration among the Parent Stock Recipients in accordance with Annex C, (d) the Blocker Seller Closing Consideration, including a calculation of the number of Units that are held directly by the Blocker as a result of the consummation of the Blocker Redemption (such Units, the “Blocker Units”), (e) each Seller’s share of the Adjustment Escrow Amount, (f) the accounts to which (i) the Naturium Seller Closing Cash Consideration allocated to each Naturium Seller shall be paid by Buyer at the Closing pursuant to Section 2.02(a)(v), (ii) the Stock Consideration allocated to TCB shall be issued on behalf of Buyer at the Closing pursuant to Section 2.02(b), (iii) the Stock Consideration allocated to each Parent Stock Recipient shall be transferred pursuant to Section 7.23 and (iv) the Blocker Seller Closing Consideration allocated to Blocker Seller shall be paid by Buyer at the Closing pursuant to Section 2.02(a)(vii) and (g) the allocation of the Phantom Unit Cash Consideration

24

among the Phantom Unit Holders and Employer Funded Payroll Taxes in respect of Phantom Unit Consideration, in each case, which is payable at the Closing in accordance with Section 2.02(a)(v) and Section 2.06. The Estimated Statement will entirely disregard (A) any purchase accounting or similar adjustments resulting from the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (B) any of the plans, transactions, or changes (including in accounting, Inventory or Tax practices) that Buyer or any of its Affiliates intends to initiate or make or cause to be initiated or made after the Closing with respect to the Company, its assets or its business and (C) any facts or circumstances that are unique or particular to Buyer or any of its Affiliates or any of their respective assets or liabilities. After delivery of the Estimated Statement and prior to the Closing, Buyer shall be provided with such access and additional support for such estimates as Buyer may reasonably request, including any books, records and other documents used in connection with the preparation of the Estimated Statement. The Company shall consider in good faith any revisions to the Estimated Statement reasonably proposed by Buyer prior to the Closing Date and will issue the Estimated Statement with any such revisions that the Company has determined in good faith are appropriate after such consideration; provided, however, that the Company shall have no obligation to modify the Estimated Statement and no dispute with respect to the Estimated Statement shall be grounds for failure of any closing condition to be satisfied or for the Closing to be delayed, and the Closing shall occur based on the information set forth in the last agreed upon version of the Estimated Statement (or, if no prior version has been agreed, the original Estimated Statement provided by the Company).

Section 3.02 Post-Closing Adjustments.

(a) As promptly as practicable after the Closing, but in no event later than ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare in good faith and deliver to the Representative a written statement (the “Post-Closing Adjustment Statement”) setting forth Buyer’s calculation of (i) the Closing Consideration, including the Closing Net Working Capital Adjustment, Closing Indebtedness, Closing Cash, Equity Holder Expenses and the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount, and (ii) the Blocker Seller Closing Consideration, including the Closing Blocker Indebtedness, Closing Blocker Cash and the Post-Closing Blocker Adjustment Amount, which in each case of (i) and (ii) shall be calculated on a basis consistent with this Agreement, including, as applicable, Exhibit A and include reasonable supporting detail to evidence the calculation of the amounts contained therein; provided, that, Buyer may elect not to deliver a Post-Closing Adjustment Statement, in which case the Final Closing Consideration and Final Blocker Seller Closing Consideration (each as finally determined pursuant to this Section 3.02) shall be deemed to equal the Closing Consideration and the Blocker Seller Closing Consideration. The Post-Closing Adjustment Statement will be prepared without giving effect to any financing obtained or to be obtained by Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including, following the Closing, the Company) in connection herewith or any other transaction entered into by Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including, following the Closing, the Company) in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby. The Post-Closing Adjustment Statement will entirely disregard (i) any purchase accounting or similar adjustments resulting from the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) any of the plans, transactions, or changes (including in accounting, Inventory or Tax practices) that Buyer or any of its Affiliates intends to initiate or make or cause to be initiated or made after the Closing Date with respect to the Company, its assets or its

25

business and (iii) any facts or circumstances that are unique or particular to Buyer or any of its Affiliates or any of their respective assets or liabilities. If Buyer does not deliver the Post-Closing Adjustment Statement to the Representative within such 90-day period, then Buyer shall be deemed to have accepted the Estimated Statement and the Company’s calculations set forth on the Estimated Statement, which shall be conclusive, final and binding on all of the parties for all purposes hereunder.

(b) Following delivery of the Post-Closing Adjustment Statement, Buyer shall (i) permit the Representative and its representatives to have reasonable access to, and to make copies of, the books, records and other documents (including work papers, schedules, financial statements, memoranda, etc.) of the Company with respect to the Post-Closing Adjustment Statement and shall reasonably cooperate with the Representative in seeking to obtain work papers from Buyer pertaining to or used in connection with the preparation of the Post-Closing Adjustment Statement and provide the Representative with copies thereof (as reasonably requested by the Representative) and (ii) provide the Representative and its representatives access (during normal business hours, upon reasonable advance notice and without material interference to the operations of the Company or Buyer) to the employees and accountants of Buyer and the Company as reasonably requested by the Representative, in each case, for the purpose of enabling the Representative to calculate and to review Buyer’s calculation of the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount and Post-Closing Blocker Adjustment Amount. Following the Closing, Buyer will, and will cause the Company to, preserve intact the accounting books and records on which the Post-Closing Adjustment Statement is to be based. If the Representative disagrees with any item in the Post-Closing Adjustment Statement or its calculation of the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount and/or the Post-Closing Blocker Adjustment Amount as set forth on the Post-Closing Adjustment Statement, the Representative shall, within forty-five (45) days after the Representative’s receipt of the Post-Closing Adjustment Statement, notify Buyer in writing of such disagreement (an “Objection Notice”) (it being understood and agreed that if Buyer fails to provide the access described in the first sentence of this Section 3.02(b), then such forty-five (45) day period shall be extended for an additional period of time until such access is provided and the Representative has had a reasonable opportunity to review the requested books, records and other documents and to prepare and submit the Objection Notice). The Objection Notice shall specify which aspects of the Post-Closing Adjustment Statement are being disputed and describe the basis for such dispute in reasonable detail. If the Representative does not deliver an Objection Notice within such forty-five (45) day period (as it may be extended as contemplated by the immediately preceding sentence), then the Representative shall be deemed to have accepted the Post-Closing Adjustment Statement and Buyer’s calculations set forth on the Post-Closing Adjustment Statement, which shall be conclusive, final and binding on all of the parties for all purposes hereunder. If an Objection Notice is delivered to Buyer, then Buyer and the Representative shall negotiate in good faith to resolve the disputed items set forth in the Objection Notice, and the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount and the Post-Closing Blocker Adjustment Amount, as applicable, and any such resolution shall be conclusive, final and binding on all of the parties. In the event that Buyer and the Representative are unable to resolve the disagreement with respect to any disputed item within thirty (30) days after Buyer’s receipt of such Objection Notice (or such longer period as Buyer and the Representative may agree in writing (email of counsel being sufficient for such purpose)),

26

Ernst & Young LLP, and if Ernst & Young LLP is unable or unwilling to serve, a nationally recognized certified public accounting firm as is reasonably acceptable to Buyer and the Representative (the “Accounting Firm”) will be retained by Buyer and the Representative to make a final determination of the remaining disputed items and the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount and the Post-Closing Blocker Adjustment Amount, as applicable.

(c) Buyer and the Representative will each execute a customary engagement letter with respect to the engagement of the Accounting Firm. If resolution of the final disputed items and the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount and the Post-Closing Blocker Adjustment Amount, as applicable, is submitted to the Accounting Firm, then (x) the Representative will deliver to the Accounting Firm the Objection Notice, (y) Buyer will deliver to the Accounting Firm the Post-Closing Adjustment Statement and (z) each of Buyer and the Representative will submit a supporting brief to the Accounting Firm, each within ten Business Days of retaining the Accounting Firm. Each of Buyer and the Representative may make an oral presentation to the Accounting Firm (in which case Buyer or the Representative, as applicable, will provide prompt prior notice of such presentation to the other party, which party will be entitled to attend or have a representative attend such presentation). The Accounting Firm will be given reasonable access to the records of Buyer and the Company related to the remaining disputed items and the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount and the Post-Closing Blocker Adjustment Amount, as applicable. Buyer and the Representative shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Accounting Firm to resolve the remaining disputed items and the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount and the Post-Closing Blocker Adjustment Amount, as applicable, as soon as practicable, but in any event shall direct the Accounting Firm to render a determination within thirty (30) days after its retention. The Accounting Firm shall consider only those items and amounts in Buyer’s and the Representative’s respective calculations of the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount and the Post-Closing Blocker Adjustment Amount, as applicable, that are identified as being items and amounts to which Buyer and the Representative have been unable to agree. In resolving any disputed item, the Accounting Firm may not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by either party or less than the smallest value for such item claimed by either party in the Post-Closing Adjustment Statement or the Objection Notice, as the case may be. The Accounting Firm’s determination of the remaining disputed items and the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount and the Post-Closing Blocker Adjustment Amount, as applicable shall be based solely on written materials submitted by Buyer and the Representative (i.e., not on independent review) and on the definitions set forth in, and on a basis consistent with, this Agreement, including as applicable, Exhibit A. The determination of the Accounting Firm shall be conclusive, final and binding upon the parties hereto and shall not be subject to appeal or further review (other than with respect to errors in arithmetic calculations). The “Final Statement” shall mean either (i) the Post-Closing Adjustment Statement as finally determined pursuant to this Section 3.02 (whether due to the Representative’s failure to deliver an Objection Notice, agreement or deemed agreement by Buyer and the Representative or a determination by the Accounting Firm) or (ii) if Buyer does not deliver the Post-Closing Adjustment Statement to the Representative within the 45-day period set forth in Section 3.02(a), the Estimated Statement.

27

(d) The allocation of the costs and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be borne by the Representative and Buyer based on the inverse of the percentage the Accounting Firm’s determination (before such allocation) bears to the total amount of the total items in dispute as originally submitted to the Accounting Firm. For example, should the total items in dispute amount to $1,000 and the Accounting Firm awards $600 in favor of the Representative’s position, 60% of the costs of its review would be borne by Buyer and 40% of the costs would be borne by the Representative. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a matter relates solely to Blocker or the Blocker Seller and could not reasonably be expected to adversely affect any other Seller (each, a “Non-Blocker Seller”), then the ability to take any action (or refrain from taking any action) with respect to such matter is hereby delegated solely to the Blocker Seller. Notwithstanding Section 10.21(a), if the dispute originally submitted to the Accounting Firm relates solely to Blocker or the Blocker Seller, and not to the Company or any of the Naturium Sellers, the costs and expenses that would otherwise be allocated to Representative shall be allocated to, and solely borne by, the Blocker Seller.

(e) The Closing Net Working Capital Adjustment, Closing Indebtedness, Closing Cash and Equity Holder Expenses set forth on any Final Statement as determined in accordance with this Section 3.02 are referred to as the “Final Net Working Capital Adjustment” “Final Indebtedness”, “Final Cash” and “Final Equity Holder Expenses”, respectively. For purposes of this Agreement, “Final Closing Consideration” means, without duplication, (i) Total Enterprise Value, minus (ii) Final Indebtedness, plus (iii) the Final Cash, plus (iv) the Final Net Working Capital Adjustment, minus (v) the Adjustment Escrow Amount, minus (vi) Final Equity Holder Expenses, minus (vii) the Representative Expense Fund. For purposes of this Agreement, “Post-Closing Adjustment Amount” means (x) the Final Closing Consideration minus (y) the Closing Consideration. The Post-Closing Adjustment Amount may be a positive or negative number. Within five (5) Business Days after the Final Closing Consideration and the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount are finally determined pursuant to this Section 3.02:

(i) If the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount is a positive amount or zero, (A) Buyer shall promptly pay, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, to the Representative, on behalf of the Sellers, an amount equal to the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount less any portion of the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount payable to the Phantom Unit Holders as set forth on the Payout Schedule and any Employer Funded Payroll Taxes in respect thereof, if applicable, and (B) Buyer and the Representative shall promptly provide joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent to release all amounts remaining in the Adjustment Escrow Account to the Representative for payment to the Sellers and to Buyer or the Company for further payment to the Phantom Unit Holders (and remittance of Employer Funded Payroll Taxes) through payroll, in each case, in accordance with the Payout Schedule.

(ii) If the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount is a negative amount, Buyer and the Representative shall promptly provide joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent to (A) pay to Buyer an amount equal to the lesser of (x) the absolute value of the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount and (y) the amount in the Adjustment Escrow Account, and (B) release any amounts remaining in the

28

Adjustment Escrow Account to the Representative for payment to the Sellers and to Buyer or the Company for further payment to the Phantom Unit Holders (and remittance of Employer Funded Payroll Taxes) through payroll, in each case, in accordance with the Payout Schedule. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount is a negative amount and the absolute value of such amount is greater than the amount in the Adjustment Escrow Account, Buyer shall only be entitled to receive the amount in the Adjustment Escrow Account and not any other amount and the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount shall be automatically reduced accordingly. Payment of the amount equal to the lesser of (x) the absolute value of the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount and (y) the amount in the Adjustment Escrow Account, in each case from the Adjustment Escrow Account shall be the sole and exclusive remedy and source of recovery available to Buyer for any claims by Buyer against the Sellers, or otherwise, arising out of or relating to the Post-Closing Adjustment Amount.

(f) The Closing Blocker Cash and Closing Blocker Indebtedness set forth on any Final Statement as determined in accordance with this Section 3.02 are the “Final Blocker Cash” and “Final Blocker Indebtedness”. For purposes of this Agreement, “Final Blocker Seller Closing Consideration” means, without duplication, (i) Final Closing Consideration, minus (ii) Final Blocker Indebtedness, plus (iii) the Final Blocker Cash. For purposes of this Agreement, “Post-Closing Blocker Adjustment Amount” means (x) the Final Blocker Seller Closing Consideration minus (y) the Blocker Seller Closing Consideration. The Post-Closing Blocker Adjustment Amount may be a positive or negative number. Within five (5) Business Days after the Final Blocker Seller Closing Consideration and the Post-Closing Blocker Adjustment Amount are finally determined pursuant to this Section 3.02:

(i) If the Post-Closing Blocker Adjustment Amount is a positive number, then, Buyer will pay to the Representative, for the benefit of the Blocker Seller, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by the Representative an amount equal to the Post-Closing Blocker Adjustment Amount (for disbursement to the Blocker Seller).

(ii) If the Post-Closing Blocker Adjustment Amount is a negative number, then, the Blocker Seller will pay to Buyer, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Buyer an amount equal to the absolute value of the Post-Closing Blocker Adjustment Amount.

(g) Any payments made pursuant to this Section 3.02 shall be treated by all parties for tax purposes as an adjustment to the purchase price, except that amounts paid to Phantom Unit Holders shall be treated as compensation and unless otherwise required under applicable Law.

(h) In the event the determination of the Final Closing Consideration pursuant to this Section 3.02 results in a re-allocation of the amounts payable to TCB and the Blocker Seller pursuant to the provisions of TCB’s Organizational Documents, the Representative shall provide written notice of such re-allocation (including the amounts so re-allocated) in writing to Buyer within ten (10) Business Days after such determination.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or otherwise, neither the Company nor Blocker shall be required to provide access to or to disclose information (x) where such access or disclosure would reasonably be expected to (A) jeopardize the attorney-client privilege or other immunity or protection from disclosure of the Company or (B) contravene any applicable Law (including any applicable COVID-19 Measures or Antitrust Laws) or Contract entered into by the Company prior to the date of this Agreement, or (y) related to proposals received from other Persons or to any other potential transaction with the Company not involving Buyer, in each case, in connection with the Company’s sales process. Without limiting the foregoing, in the event that the Company or Blocker do not provide access or information in reliance on the immediately preceding sentence, the Company shall provide notice to Buyer that it is withholding such access or information and shall use reasonable efforts to communicate the applicable information in a way that would not risk violating the applicable Law or Contract, or risk waiver of such privilege, including by developing a reasonable alternative to providing such information so as to address such matters.

(b) As a result of the ownership of the Purchased Securities of the Company and Blocker, each Seller has had access to confidential or proprietary information and materials of the Company and Blocker (collectively, the “Company Confidential Information”). The Representative and each Seller, on behalf of such Seller and its Affiliates, agrees that, for a period of seven (7) years beginning on the Closing Date, unless such Person first secures the written consent of Buyer, such Person shall not disclose to any third party any Company Confidential Information; provided that the foregoing restriction shall not prevent disclosure by a Seller or the Representative of information (v) exclusively pertaining to the other businesses of such Seller, as applicable, (w) generally available to, or generally known by, the public (other than as a result of disclosure in violation of this Section 7.07), (x) that is received by such Seller or the Representative after the Closing Date from a third party that was not, to such Seller’s or the Representative’s knowledge, prohibited from disclosing such information, (y) that was independently developed by any Seller or any Affiliate of such Seller (other than the Company) without use of or reference to any Company Confidential Information or (z) (A) necessary to be made in connection with the enforcement of any right or remedy relating to any of the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or (B) required for audit or Tax purposes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Representative or a Seller or any of its Affiliates is required by applicable Law (including by deposition, interrogatories, subpoenas, civil investigative demand or similar process) to disclose any Company Confidential Information, to the extent permitted by Law, such Person shall provide Buyer with prompt written notice of such requirement so that Buyer may seek an appropriate protective order or other remedy or waive compliance with the provisions of this Section 7.07(b), and will reasonably cooperate with Buyer, at Buyer’s request and expense, in connection with any efforts to obtain such protective order or otherwise prevent or limit the scope of such disclosure; provided, that, if, in the absence of a protective order or the receipt of a waiver hereunder, such Person (for itself or on behalf of any of its Affiliates) is nonetheless required to disclose Company Confidential Information to or at the direction of any Governmental Authority, such Person may disclose only that portion of such Company Confidential Information, that such Person is advised by counsel is reasonably necessary to properly respond to the applicable requirement and will exercise commercially reasonable efforts (at Buyer’s expense) to obtain assurances that confidential treatment will be accorded to the Company Confidential Information so disclosed.

Section 7.08 Public Statements. Except as otherwise agreed by Buyer and the Company, and except as required by applicable Law, Governmental Authority or the rules and regulations of any applicable stock exchange, in which event the parties shall consult with each other in advance and provide the non-disclosing party a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon, no press release or other public announcement, statement or comment relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be issued, made or permitted to be issued or made by any party to this Agreement or any of its Affiliates or representatives without the prior

70

written consent of the other parties hereto; provided, however, that (a) the Company and any Affiliate of any Seller which is a holding company, private equity fund or other investment fund may make customary disclosures regarding the transactions contemplated by this Agreement on a confidential basis to its limited partners, shareholders and prospective limited partners or other investors in connection with their ordinary course business operations, including venture capital/fund-formation, fundraising, marketing, syndication, informational or reporting activities, (b) Parent or Buyer may make public statements with respect to the anticipated effect of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby on Parent’s or Buyer’s business and its financial projections (i) to the extent required by the SEC, FINRA or other Governmental Authority or (ii) to investors, analysts and financing sources, provided such public statements are made without use of or reference to any confidential information of the Company and (c) following the Closing, the parties and their respective Affiliates may make any public statement or statements that are reasonably likely to become public relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, in each case, without the prior written consent of, or notice to, any Person if the statements contained therein with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are otherwise consistent with previous press releases, public statements, or public filings made by any party in compliance with this Section 7.08.

Section 7.09 Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

(a) Each of Parent and Buyer agrees that all rights provided (x) in the Organizational Documents of the Company or Blocker as in effect as of the date of this Agreement or (y) in any other agreement (each, an “Indemnification Agreement”) between the Company or Blocker and any D&O Indemnified Person existing as of the date of this Agreement (a copy of which has been made available to Buyer), in each case with respect to exculpation, indemnification and advancement of expenses for acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Closing, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Closing (including in respect of any matters arising in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby) in favor of each individual who at the Closing is, or at any time prior to the Closing was, a director (or manager) and/or officer of the Company or Blocker (each such Person, a “D&O Indemnified Person” and such obligations, the “Company Indemnification Obligations”) shall survive the Closing and shall continue in full force and effect until the sixth (6^th) anniversary of the Closing. For a period of at least six (6) years after the Closing, (A) neither Parent nor Buyer shall amend, repeal or modify any provision in the Company’s or Blocker’s Organizational Documents relating to the exculpation, indemnification or advancement of expenses of any D&O Indemnified Person with respect to acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Closing, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Closing (including in respect of any matters arising in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby), unless and only to the extent required by Law, it being the intent of the parties that all such D&O Indemnified Persons shall continue to be entitled to such exculpation, indemnification and advancement of expenses to the fullest extent provided under the existing Organizational Documents (to the extent permitted by applicable Law) and that no change, modification or amendment of such documents or arrangements may be made that will adversely affect any such D&O Indemnified Person’s right thereto without the prior written consent of that D&O Indemnified Person and (B) Parent and Buyer shall cause the Company and Blocker to honor the Indemnification Agreements.

71

(b) Sellers shall cause the Company as of the Closing to obtain and fully pay for, at Buyer’s expense, a “tail” insurance policy, in a form mutually approved by the Company and Buyer (Buyer’s approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), with a claims period of at least six (6) years from and after the Closing Date, from an insurance carrier with the same or better credit ratings as the insurance carrier that provides the existing officers’ and directors’ liability insurance applicable to the current officers and directors of the Company (the “D&O Insurance”), for the persons who are covered by the D&O Insurance, with terms, conditions, retentions and levels of coverage (including as coverage relates to deductibles and exclusions) at least as favorable as the D&O Insurance with respect to matters arising out of or relating to acts or omissions occurring or existing (or alleged to have occurred or existed) at or prior to the Closing (including in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby), and Parent and Buyer shall cause the Company to maintain such D&O Insurance in full force and effect for its full term; provided that in no event shall Parent or Buyer be required to bear in respect of the D&O Insurance an aggregate amount in excess of two hundred percent (200%) of the aggregate annual premiums respectively paid by or on behalf of the Company and Blocker for such directors’ and officers’ liability insurance in effect as of the date of this Agreement. In the event that Parent, Buyer, the Company or Blocker or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and is not the continuing or surviving company or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers or conveys fifty percent (50%) or more of its properties and other assets to any Person (including by liquidation, dissolution or assignment for the benefit of creditors or similar action), then, and in each such case, Parent, Buyer or the Company, as the case may be, shall cause proper provision to be made so that the applicable successors and assigns or transferees expressly assume the obligations set forth in this Section 7.09.

(c) The provisions of this Section 7.09 are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each D&O Indemnified Person, his or her heirs and his or her executors, administrators and personal representatives, each of whom is an intended third-party beneficiary of this Section 7.09, and are in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights, including rights to indemnification or contribution that any such Person may have by Contract or otherwise.

(c) Buyer shall, or shall cause the Company to, take the actions set forth on Schedule 7.10(c).

(d) From and after the Closing Date, Buyer shall, or shall cause the Company to use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) provide for all Continuing Employees receive credit for prior service with the Company (or any predecessor entities) prior to Closing as recognized by the Company for purposes of eligibility to participate, level of benefits, and vesting, except to the extent such credit would result in the duplication of benefits for the same period of service; (ii) ensure that any pre-existing conditions or limitations, eligibility waiting periods, actively-at-work requirements or required physical examinations, or other exclusions or limitations under any welfare benefit plans of Buyer, the Company or any of its or their respective Affiliates will be waived with respect to the Continuing Employees and their eligible spouses and dependents; and (iii) provide that the Continuing Employees and their eligible spouses, dependents and beneficiaries will receive credit under any welfare benefit plans of Buyer, the Company or any of its or their respective Affiliates in which they participate following the Closing Date towards applicable deductibles, coinsurances and annual out-of-pocket limits for expenses incurred prior to the Closing Date.

(e) Nothing in this Agreement, whether express or implied, shall: (i) confer upon any Continuing Employee any rights or remedies, including any right to employment or continued employment for any period or terms of employment, (ii) be interpreted to prevent or restrict the Company from modifying or terminating the employment or terms of employment of any Continuing Employee, including the amendment or termination of any employee benefit or compensation plan, program or arrangement, after the Closing Date, subject to the provisions of this Section 7.10 or (iii) be treated as an amendment or other modification of any Plan or other employee benefit plan or arrangement. For the avoidance of doubt, the employment of each Continuing Employee shall be “at-will”. The provisions of this Section 7.10 are solely for the benefit of the parties to this Agreement, and no current or former employee or any other individual associated therewith or any other Person (other than the parties to this Agreement) shall be regarded for any purpose as a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement or have the right to enforce the provisions hereof.

73

(f) Prior to the Closing, the Sellers and the Company shall not (and shall take best efforts to ensure that none of their respective representatives shall) issue any written or material oral communication (including any electronic communication) to any employee of the Company regarding post-Closing employment matters in connection with this Agreement, including post-Closing employee benefit plans and compensation (collectively, “Employment Matters”), without prior written approval of Buyer (with such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(i) The Representative shall file or cause to be filed when due (taking into account any valid applicable extensions) any U.S. federal or state or local Tax Returns of the Company with respect to flow-through income Taxes that are imposed on the Sellers (“Flow-Through Returns”) for any tax period ending on or before the Closing Date, including any such Tax Returns required to be filed after the Closing Date (such Flow-Through Returns, the “Seller Tax Returns”). The Seller Tax Returns shall be prepared consistent with past practice except as required by applicable Law, provided, however, that no pass-through entity election or other election to cause the Company to bear or pay any Taxes of or attributable to the Sellers shall be made.

The Buyer Tax Returns shall be prepared consistent with past practice except as required by applicable Law; provided, that items of income, gain, loss and expense of the Company shall be allocated using the “interim closing method” and, to the extent commercially reasonably practicable, the “calendar day convention” pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.706-4. Each Buyer Tax Return (or the portion of such Buyer Tax Return relating to the Pre-Closing Tax Period) shall be provided to the Representative for its review and approval (not to be unreasonably withheld) at least thirty (30) days prior to the due date for such Tax Return.

(iii) The parties to this Agreement agree that to the extent permitted by applicable Law (at a “more likely than not” or higher standard), (A) all Transaction Deductions shall be allocated to Pre-Closing Tax Periods and (B) an election shall be made under Internal Revenue Service Revenue Procedure 2011-29 to treat seventy percent (70%) of any applicable success-based fees paid by the Company and Blocker relating to the purchase and sale of the Purchased Securities hereunder as deductible for federal income Tax purposes in the Pre-Closing Tax Period.

(d) Straddle Period Allocations. In apportioning Income Taxes for a Straddle Period between the period ending on the Closing Date for purposes of the definition of “Pre-Closing Income Taxes,” and the period beginning the day after the Closing Date, the amount of any Taxes of the Company or Blocker for the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be determined based on an interim closing of the books as of the close of business on the Closing Date.

(e) Tax Contests. After the Closing, Buyer and the Representative shall, and shall cause their Affiliates to, promptly notify the other party in writing upon receipt of any written notice of a Tax Contest with respect to any Seller Tax Returns. The Representative shall control the defense of any such Tax Contest (a “Seller Tax Contest”); provided, that (i) the Representative shall keep Buyer reasonably informed of the progress of any such Seller Tax Contest, (ii) Buyer and its counsel shall have the right to participate in any such Seller Tax Contest at Buyer’s own expense, (iii) without the prior written consent of Buyer, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, the Representative shall not settle or otherwise

75

Buyer shall control any Tax Contest with respect to any Buyer Tax Returns(the portion of any such Tax Contest relating to the Pre-Closing Tax Period, a “Buyer Tax Contest”), provided that, (A) Buyer shall keep the Representative reasonably informed of the progress of any Buyer Tax Contest, (B) the Representative and its counsel shall have the right to participate in any such Buyer Tax Contest at the Sellers’ own expense, and (C) without the prior written consent of the Representative, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, neither Parent nor Buyer shall settle or otherwise resolve, either administratively or after the commencement of litigation, any such Buyer Tax Contest.

(f) Purchase Price Allocation. The parties to this Agreement agree to allocate the Final Closing Consideration (and any other amounts treated as consideration for the assets of the Company for applicable tax purposes, but excluding the amount allocable to the Purchased Blocker Stock) among the assets of the Company in accordance with Section 755 of the Code and the applicable Treasury regulations and in accordance with the methodology set forth on Exhibit H hereto (the “Allocation Methodology”). Within sixty (60) days following the determination of the Final Closing Consideration, Buyer shall deliver to the Representative a draft schedule (the “Allocation Schedule”) prepared consistent with the Allocation Methodology for the Representative’s review and approval (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld); provided that, if the Representative does not object to the draft Allocation Schedule in writing within fifteen (15) days of receipt thereof, the Allocation Schedule as prepared by Buyer shall be deemed final and binding for all purposes of this Agreement. Buyer, the Company, Blocker and the Sellers shall each (and their respective Affiliates shall) prepare and file all Tax Returns in a manner consistent with the Allocation Schedule, as finally determined pursuant to this Section 7.11(f).

(g) Post-Closing Actions. After the Closing, Buyer (and any of its Affiliates, including the Company and Blocker) shall not, without the prior written consent of the Representative, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, or except as required by applicable Law (i) file, or permit to be filed, or amend or otherwise modify, or permit to be amended or otherwise modified, any Flow-Through Tax Return of the Company for any Pre-Closing Tax Period, for the avoidance of doubt, other than the initial filing of a Tax Return that is first due (taking into account extensions) after the Closing Date (filed in accordance with Section 7.11(c)) or (ii) make any Tax election for the Company that has retroactive effect to any Flow-Through Tax Return for a Pre-Closing Tax Period, or, with respect to the Blocker, that would affect the amount of Pre-Closing Income Taxes included in Closing Blocker Indebtedness), in each case, to the extent such action would reasonably be expected to result in any liability for Taxes imposed upon any of the Sellers. In the event that Buyer (or any of its Affiliates, including the Company and Blocker) initiates any voluntary disclosure or similar proceeding with any Governmental Authority or representative thereof after the Closing and prior to the resolution of the Final Statement with respect to any Tax liability of the Company or Blocker for any Pre-Closing Tax Period without obtaining the prior written consent of the Representative, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, any Taxes arising in connection with such voluntary disclosure or similar proceeding shall be excluded from the determination of the Final Closing Consideration or Final Blocker Seller Closing Consideration.

76

(h) Section 754 Election. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall have in place or make an election under Section 754 of the Code (and any corresponding provision of state or local Tax law) with respect to any tax period that includes the Closing Date.

(i) Certain TCB Tax Matters. TCB shall file or cause to be filed when due (taking into account any valid applicable extensions) any U.S. federal or state or local Tax Returns of TCB with respect to flow-through income Taxes for Pre-Closing Tax Periods. Such Tax Returns shall, to the extent such Tax Returns relate to Blocker, be prepared consistent with past practice of TCB and in a manner consistent with the assumptions used to calculate Final Blocker Indebtedness, in each case, except as required by applicable Law. A draft of (A) any such Tax Return for the tax year ending on or before December 31, 2022, and a pro forma version of such Tax Return for January 1, 2023 through April 5, 2023, and (B) the IRS Schedule K-1 (and any similar state or local form) that will be filed by TCB with respect to the Blocker in connection with the filing of any such Tax Returns for any Tax period shall be provided to Buyer at least thirty (30) days prior to the due date for such Tax Return (or, if earlier, the due date of any Tax Return of Blocker requiring the information on such Schedule or form) for Buyer’s review and approval, not to be unreasonably withheld. In the event of a Tax Contest relating to flow-through income taxes of TCB for a Pre-Closing Tax Period, no election under Section 6226 of the Code (or other similar election that would reasonably be expected to result in any liability for Blocker) shall be made unless the Blocker Seller reimburses Buyer for any Taxes payable on account of such election. After the Closing, TCB shall not, without the prior written consent of Buyer, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, or except as required by applicable Law (i) file, or permit to be filed, or amend or otherwise modify, or permit to be amended or otherwise modified, any Tax Return of TCB affecting Blocker for any Pre-Closing Tax Period, for the avoidance of doubt, other than the initial filing of a Tax Return that is first due (taking into account extensions) after the Closing Date (filed in accordance with the foregoing sentences of this Section 7.11(i)) or (ii) make any Tax election for TCB affecting Blocker that has retroactive effect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period (other than an election under Section 6226 of the Code made in accordance with the preceding sentence of this Section 7.11(i)), in each case, to the extent such action would reasonably be expected to result in any liability for Taxes imposed upon Blocker, Buyer or any of their Affiliates.

(j) Phantom Unit Consideration. It is intended that, for U.S. federal (and applicable state or local) income tax purposes: (i) TCB be treated as making a capital contribution to the Company in an amount equal to the sum of the Phantom Unit Cash Consideration and the fair market value of the Phantom Unit Stock Consideration (calculated using the Parent Stock Price) plus the Employer Funded Payroll Taxes with respect to the Phantom Unit Consideration that reduce the amount of consideration otherwise payable to TCB under this Agreement, (ii) the Phantom Unit Consideration be treated as compensatory payments made by the Company for services provided by the Phantom Unit Holders to the Company, and (iii) any Tax deductions of the Company

77

attributable to the Phantom Unit Consideration be specially allocated to TCB on the Tax Returns of the Company that include the Closing Date (and allocations shall otherwise be made on such Tax Returns disregarding such special allocations). The parties shall prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, the Tax Returns of TCB and the Company in a manner consistent with the intended tax treatment set forth in the preceding sentence to the extent permitted by applicable Law (at a “more likely than not” or higher standard) (including, in the case of TCB, treating the Phantom Unit Consideration (together with applicable employer-side Taxes) as received by TCB immediately prior to the deemed capital contribution described in clause (i)).

(k) Tax Classification of the Company. No party shall file, or cause to be filed, any entity classification election to treat the Company as other than a partnership for U.S. federal (or applicable state or local) income tax purposes for any Pre-Closing Tax Period.

Section 7.12 Changes to Foreign Control. From the date of this Agreement through the Closing, none of Buyer or any of its Affiliates shall take any action (including issuing any equity interests, amending its Organizational Documents or agreeing to any of the foregoing) that would result or would reasonably be expected to result (including upon consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) in the representations and warranties set forth in Section 6.10 becoming untrue in any respect.

Section 7.13 Preservation of Books and Records. For a period of seven (7) years from the Closing Date:

(a) Buyer shall, and shall cause the Company and Blocker and Buyer’s, the Company’s and Blocker’s respective Affiliates to, preserve and keep the records held by them relating to the Company’s or Blocker’s business, as applicable, prior to the Closing and existing as of the Closing Date (the “Books and Records”).

(b) Each Seller and the Representative shall, and shall cause its respective Affiliates to, preserve and keep any records held by them relating to the Company’s or Blocker’s business, as applicable, prior to the Closing and existing as of the Closing Date (the “Seller Books and Records”).

(c) Buyer, the Sellers and the Representative shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, upon request (i) provide each other and their respective representatives with reasonable electronic access to any portions of the Books and Records or Seller Books and Records, as applicable, that are available in electronic format, (ii) allow each other and their respective representatives reasonable access to the other Books and Records or Seller Books and Records, as applicable, on reasonable notice and at reasonable times at their principal place of business or at any location where any Books and Records or Seller Books and Records, as applicable, are stored and permit the other party and their respective representatives, at the requesting party’s own expense, to make copies of such Books and Records or Seller Books and Records, as applicable, (iii) make reasonably available their and each of their respective Affiliates’ representatives to assist in commercially reasonably efforts to locate such Books and Records or Seller Books and Records, as applicable, and (iv) make

78

The party requesting such information or assistance shall reimburse the other party for all out-of-pocket costs and expenses, if any, incurred by such party in providing such information and in rendering such assistance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) no party shall be required to provide access to any consolidated, combined, affiliated or unitary income Tax Return of such party or any of its Affiliates, and (B) any permitted investigation undertaken by or on behalf of a party pursuant to the access granted under this Section 7.13 shall be conducted in such a manner as not to unreasonably interfere with the operation of the business of any party or its Affiliates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of Buyer, the Sellers, Representative nor any of their respective Affiliates shall be required to provide access to or disclose information pursuant to this Section 7.13 where such access or disclosure would (1) upon the advice of counsel, jeopardize the attorney-client privilege, other privilege or work product protection of such Person or any of its Affiliates or (2) contravene any applicable Laws or binding agreement entered into by such Person or any of its Affiliates; provided, that such Person shall use reasonable commercial efforts to permit the disclosure of such information without causing such loss of such privilege or contravention of such Law or binding agreement.

Section 7.14 Post-Closing Insurance.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in respect of any coverage under “occurrence” based TCB Insurance Policies, during the two (2) year period immediately following the Closing Date, TCB shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assist Buyer and the Company in processing any claims with respect to any acts, events, facts, circumstances, matters, incidents or omissions involving the Company or its business that occurred prior to the Closing (the “Pre-Closing Claims”).

(b) To the extent that TCB has received notice of a Pre-Closing Claim on or before the second anniversary of the Closing Date, TCB shall use commercially reasonable efforts to file, or arrange to be filed, and control any claims under the applicable TCB Insurance Policy in accordance with Section 7.14(a); provided that TCB does not assume or will not incur any liability to Buyer or the Company with respect to any such claims.

79

TCB shall promptly be reimbursed by Buyer for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses paid after the Closing (i) that are incurred at Buyer’s request or (ii) reasonably incurred in making or controlling any claims in accordance with this Section 7.14 (“Insurance Claim Costs”). The Insurance Claim Costs shall include any deductible or self-insured retention payable under the terms of the applicable TCB Insurance Policy in connection with any Pre-Closing Claims. TCB shall invoice Buyer for the Insurance Claim Costs and Buyer shall pay to TCB, in accordance with such invoice, the amount set forth therein within sixty (60) days of delivery of such invoice.

(c) In the event any Pre-Closing Claim under a TCB Insurance Policy is or has been made on behalf of the Company, TCB shall file and control the conduct of any such claims and, Buyer shall promptly provide TCB with all such assistance and cooperation as TCB may reasonably require.

Section 7.15 RWI Policy. Except in the case of Fraud, Buyer acknowledges and agrees that the RWI Policy to be obtained by Buyer (whether or not such RWI Policy is sufficient to cover the applicable losses) shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of Buyer and its Affiliates (including, from and after the Closing, the Company and the Blocker) and the Buyer Related Parties, in Law, equity or otherwise, arising out of, or related to any inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty of the Sellers or the Company contained in this Agreement or in any certificates delivered with respect thereto, and Buyer, its Affiliates (including, from and after the Closing, the Company and the Blocker), the Buyer Related Parties and the insurers under the RWI Policy shall have no recourse against any Seller or other Seller Related Party with respect thereto, except in the case of Fraud. Buyer agrees that it shall cause the RWI Policy to expressly exclude rights of subrogation, contribution, assignments and other rights of recovery against the Sellers and the other Seller Related Parties except in the case of Fraud (the “Subrogation Waiver”).

Section 7.16 Limitation on Acquisitions or Investments. During the Pre-Closing Period, Buyer shall not, and shall cause its respective Subsidiaries and Affiliates not to, acquire or agree to acquire, by merging with or into or consolidating with, or by purchasing a portion of the assets of or equity in, any business or any corporation, partnership, association, or other business organization or division thereof, in each case, that operates in the specific industries in which the

80

Company operates, if the entering into of a definitive agreement relating to, or the consummation of such acquisition, merger or consolidation would reasonably be expected to: (a) materially increase the risk of any Governmental Authorities seeking or entering an order prohibiting the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby; (b) materially increase the risk of not being able to remove any such order on appeal or otherwise; or (c) otherwise prevent the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 7.17 Post-Closing Actions; Wrong Pockets. From and after the Closing, each party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to take such actions as are reasonably requested by another party to reflect that the Sellers and their Affiliates no longer own and no longer control the Company and Blocker, as applicable. In the event that at any time or from time to time after the Closing Date, any Seller receives or otherwise possesses any right, property or asset (including cash and receivables) that should belong to Buyer, Blocker or the Company, such Seller shall promptly transfer, or cause to be transferred, such right, property or asset to Buyer, Blocker or the Company, as designated by Buyer, for no additional consideration and at such Seller’s sole expense, and to the extent such asset is cash or receivables, such Seller shall provide a general explanation or description of such transfer. Prior to any such transfer, such Seller shall hold such asset in trust for the benefit of Buyer. In the event that at any time or from time to time after the Closing Date, Buyer or any of its Affiliates, including the Company, receives or otherwise possesses any property or asset (including cash and receivables) that should belong to any Seller or its Affiliates pursuant to this Agreement, Buyer shall promptly transfer, or cause to be transferred, such asset to Seller or the appropriate Affiliate of Seller, designated by Seller, for no consideration and at Buyer’s sole expense and to the extent such asset is cash or a cash equivalent, Buyer shall provide a general explanation or description of such transfer. Prior to any such transfer, Buyer shall hold such asset in trust for the benefit of such Seller.

Section 7.18 Affiliate Transactions. Immediately prior to the Closing, the Company and the Sellers will cause all Affiliate Transactions set forth on Schedule 5.08 to be settled (irrespective of the terms of payment), terminated, forgiven, extinguished, written off, canceled or otherwise cleared without any further Liability to, or obligation of, the Company or Blocker, from and after the Closing. The Company will provide evidence of such settlement, termination, forgiveness, extinguishment, write-off, or cancellation, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Buyer, at or prior to the Closing.

Section 7.19 No Solicitation; Other Offers.

(a) During the Pre-Closing Period, neither the Company nor any Seller will, and the Company and each Seller will cause such Person’s respective controlled Affiliates and direct such Person’s representatives (including employees and service providers) not to, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit, initiate, facilitate, support, seek, induce, knowingly entertain or encourage, or knowingly take any action to solicit, initiate, facilitate, support, seek, induce, entertain or encourage any inquiries, announcements or communications relating to, or the making of any submission, proposal or offer that constitutes or that would reasonably be expected to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal, (ii) enter into, participate in, maintain or continue any discussions or negotiations relating to, any Acquisition Proposal with any Person other than Buyer, (iii) furnish to any Person other than Buyer any information that the Company or such Seller believes or should reasonably know would be

81

used for the purposes of formulating any inquiry, expression of interest, proposal or offer relating to an Acquisition Proposal, or take any other action regarding any inquiry, expression of interest, proposal or offer that constitutes, or would reasonably be expected to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal, (iv) accept any Acquisition Proposal or enter into any agreement, arrangement or understanding (whether written or oral) providing for the consummation of any transaction contemplated by any Acquisition Proposal or otherwise relating to any Acquisition Proposal, (v) submit any Acquisition Proposal or any matter related thereto to the vote of the holders of equity interests of the Company, (vi) amend or grant any waiver or release under any standstill or similar agreement with respect to any class of equity securities of the Company or the Blocker or (vii) resolve, propose or agree to do any of the foregoing. From and following the date of this Agreement, the Company and the Sellers further agree not to release any Persons described in the preceding sentence from any obligations under such non-disclosure or similar agreements without the prior written consent of Buyer. The Company and each Seller shall be responsible for any breach of this Section 7.19 by any of its representatives (including employees and service providers).

(b) The Company and the Sellers will, and the Company and each Seller will cause such Person’s respective Affiliates and representatives to, immediately cease and cause to be terminated any and all existing activities, discussions or negotiations with any Persons conducted prior to or on the date of this Agreement with respect to any Acquisition Proposal. Subject to any confidentiality obligations by which the Company may be bound under the terms of any confidentiality agreement between the Company and any Other Interested Party (as defined below) entered into prior to the date of this Agreement, during the Pre-Closing Period, the Company shall promptly (and in any event within one Business Day from the receipt thereof) provide Buyer with: (i) a description of any expression of interest, inquiry, proposal or offer relating to a possible Acquisition Proposal, or any request for information that would reasonably be expected to be used for the purposes of formulating any inquiry, proposal or offer regarding a possible Acquisition Proposal, that is received by the Company, the Blocker or any Seller or any of their respective representatives from any Person (other than Buyer), including in such description the identity of the Person from which such expression of interest, inquiry, proposal, offer or request for information was received (the “Other Interested Party”) and (ii) a copy of each written communication transmitted on behalf of the Other Interested Party or any of the Other Interested Party’s representatives to the Company, the Blocker, any Seller or any of their respective representatives or transmitted on behalf of the Company, the Blocker, any Seller or any of their respective representatives to the Other Interested Party or any of the Other Interested Party’s representatives, in each case, relating to a possible Acquisition Proposal. Promptly (and in any event within two (2) Business Days) following the execution of this Agreement, the Company shall deliver written notices to request the return or destruction of all confidential information to all Persons (except for Buyer) who have received confidential information pursuant to non-disclosure or similar agreements in connection with a potential Acquisition Proposal, financing of the Company or similar transaction, in accordance with any return or destroy obligations included under such non-disclosure or similar agreements.

Section 7.20 Restrictions on Parent Stock; Shelf Registration.

(a) The Parent Stock issued pursuant to the terms of this Agreement will be issued in a transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act (by reason of Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act) and therefore may not be re-offered or resold other than in conformity with the registration requirements of the Securities Act and such other applicable rules and regulations or pursuant to an exemption therefrom. The Parent Stock to be issued pursuant to the terms of this Agreement will be “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act and may not be offered, sold, pledged, assigned or otherwise transferred unless (i) a registration statement with respect thereto is effective under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws or (ii) an exemption from such registration exists and either Parent receives an opinion of counsel to the holder of such securities, which counsel and opinion are reasonably satisfactory to Parent, that such securities may be offered, sold, pledged, assigned or transferred in the manner contemplated without an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or applicable state securities laws. The Parent Stock issued hereunder shall, if certificated, bear an appropriate legend (or if held in book-entry form, will be noted) with respect to such restrictions.

(b) Promptly (and in any event within ten (10) days) following the Closing, Parent shall file with the SEC, and use reasonable best efforts to cause to be declared effective as soon as reasonably practicable after filing, a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 or, if Form S-3 is not available to Parent, another appropriate form (including any amendments or supplements, the “Registration Statement”) and the prospectus (including any amendments or supplements, the “Prospectus”) forming part of the Registration Statement in compliance with Rule 415 under the Securities Act covering the resale on a continuous basis of all of the Registrable Securities from time to time after the Closing Date by and pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available to the Parent Stock Recipients (including, without limitation, a direct sale to purchasers, a sale to or through brokers, dealers or agents, block trades, derivative transactions with third parties, sales in connection with short sales and other hedging transactions). Such Registration Statement shall be an “automatic resale registration statement” as defined pursuant to Rule 462(e) if Parent so qualifies, and to the extent Parent does not so qualify, Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective under the Securities Act as soon as reasonably practicable after such Registration Statement is filed with the SEC. Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to maintain and update the Registration Statement and the Prospectus for a period of one year following the Closing Date or, if sooner, the date on which all shares of Parent Stock subject to the Registration Statement cease to be Registrable Securities hereunder.

83

(c) As a condition to its obligations under Section 7.20(b), Parent may require each Holder of Registrable Securities as to which any registration is being effected to (i) furnish Parent with such information regarding such Person that is necessary to satisfy the disclosure requirements relating to the registration and the distribution of such securities under the Securities Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder as Buyer may from time to time reasonably request in writing, including a properly completed and executed Selling Holder Questionnaire, and (ii) promptly notify Parent in writing of any changes in the information set forth in the applicable Selling Holder Questionnaire after it is prepared regarding the Holder of Registrable Securities. The Registration Statement and Prospectus shall only include the Registrable Securities of Parent Stock Recipients for whom Buyer has received properly completed Selling Holder Questionnaires on or before the Closing Date. None of the information supplied (or to be supplied) by or on behalf of any of the Holders of Registrable Securities for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the applicable Registration Statement or Prospectus will, at the time the Registration Statement is declared effective under the Securities Act (or with respect to any post-effective amendments or supplements thereto, at the time such post-effective amendments or supplements become effective under the Securities Act), contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading. For the purposes of this Section 7.20, a “Holder of Registrable Securities” refers solely to a Parent Stock Recipient or any permitted transferee thereof.

(d) Parent shall have the right at any time, upon written notice (with immediate effect) to the Holders of Registrable Securities (each, a “Blackout Notice”), to (i) delay the filing of the Registration Statement or a request for acceleration of the effective date for the shortest period of time reasonably possible or (ii) suspend the Registration Statement after effectiveness and require that the Holders of Registrable Securities immediately cease sales of shares pursuant to any Registration Statement in the event that (A) Parent is or may be in possession of material non-public information, the failure of which to disclose in the Registration Statement, in the good faith judgment of Parent would reasonably be expected to result in a violation of securities laws, (B) there is a contemplated financing, acquisition, disposition, corporate reorganization, merger, or other similar transaction or other material event or circumstance affecting Parent or its securities or (C) any other event occurs that makes any statement of a material fact made in such Registration Statement, including any document incorporated by reference therein, untrue or that requires the making of any additions or changes in such Registration Statement in order to make the statements therein (in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading; provided, however, that Parent may not delay the filing or effectiveness of the Registration Statement for more than forty five (45) consecutive calendar days, or suspend the use of the Registration Statement for more than ninety (90) total calendar days, in each case during any twelve (12)-month period. If Parent suspends the Registration Statement and requires

84

the Holders of Registrable Securities to cease sales of shares pursuant to this Section 7.20(d), Parent shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable following the termination of the circumstance which entitled Parent to do so, take such actions as may be reasonably necessary to file or reinstate the effectiveness of such Registration Statement and give prompt written notice to all Holders of Registrable Securities authorizing them to resume sales pursuant to such Registration Statement. If as a result thereof the Prospectus included in any Registration Statement has been amended to comply with the requirements of the Securities Act, Parent shall enclose such revised Prospectus with the notice to Holders of Registrable Securities given pursuant to this Section 7.20(d), and the Holders of Registrable Securities shall make no offers or sales of shares pursuant to such Registration Statement other than by means of such revised Prospectus. Parent need not specify the nature of the event giving rise to any delay or suspension in any notice to Holders of Registrable Securities.

(e) Parent shall:

(i) provide written notice to each Holder of Registrable Securities within two Business Days of the issuance by the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for such purpose;

(ii) use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement as promptly as reasonably practicable;

(iii) pay all registration fees under the Securities Act, all printing expenses and all fees and disbursements of Parent’s legal counsel, Parent’s independent registered public accounting firm and any other persons retained by Parent, and any other expenses incurred by Parent, in connection with the performance of Parent’s obligations under this Section 7.20; and

(iv) use its reasonable best efforts, upon request of any Holder of Registrable Securities, to, subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, (A) cause the removal of the restrictive legends from any shares of Parent Stock being sold under the Registration Statement or pursuant to Rule 144 at the time of such sale of shares of Parent Stock and (B) cause its legal counsel to deliver an opinion, if necessary, to the transfer agent for the Parent Stock in connection with the removal of such restrictive legends.

Section 7.21 NYSE Listing. Prior to the Closing, Parent shall file a Supplemental Listing Application (or such other form as may be required by NYSE) with NYSE with respect to the shares of Parent Stock to be issued in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and shall use reasonable best efforts to cause such shares to be approved for listing before the Closing Date.

85

Section 7.22 Financing.

(a) Prior to the Closing, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause appropriate senior management of the Company to reasonably cooperate with Buyer (at Buyer’s sole expense) in connection with Buyer obtaining any debt financing by: (i) participating in a reasonable number of lender meetings and due diligence presentations on a telephonic or other remote basis during normal business hours and on reasonable advance notice and (ii) furnishing Buyer and its financing sources with the financial information regarding the Company, including historical audited and un-audited annual, quarterly and monthly consolidated balance sheets and related statements of income and cash flow; provided, that in no event shall the Company be required (A) to furnish any information (x) which is not prepared by the Company in the ordinary course of business, unless such information is readily available, customarily provided for debt financings or could be prepared by the Company without undue burden or expense, or (y) with respect to a month or fiscal period that has not yet ended or has ended less than 45 days prior to the date of such request or (B) to prepare any financial information in compliance with Regulation S-X.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, nothing in this Section 7.22 shall require any such cooperation or assistance to the extent that it would: (i) require the Company or Blocker to waive or amend any terms of this Agreement or agree to pay any commitment or other fees or reimburse any expenses prior to the Closing Date, or incur any liability or give any indemnities to any third party or otherwise commit to take any similar action, in each case, that is not contingent on the Closing or, in the case of normal costs, for which it is not reimbursed or indemnified by Buyer, (ii) unreasonably interfere with the ongoing business or operations of the Company or Blocker or be inconsistent with any COVID-19 Measures or otherwise materially interfere with the prompt and timely discharge by any employee of the Company or Blocker or their respective Affiliates of their normal duties, as determined by the Company and Blocker in their reasonable business judgment, (iii) require the Company or Blocker to commit to take any corporate action that is not contingent on the Closing, (iv) require the Company or Blocker to take any action that would (A) conflict with, violate or result in a breach of or default under any Organizational Documents of the Company or Blocker, any Contract or any Law (including any COVID-19 Measure), (B) require providing access to or disclosing information that the Company or Blocker determines could jeopardize any attorney-client privilege of, or conflict with any confidentiality requirements applicable to, the Company or Blocker; or (C) require the Company or Blocker to change any fiscal period, (v) require any director, manager or equivalent of the Company or Blocker to pass resolutions or consents to approve or authorize the execution of any debt financing or the creation of any agreements or documents, or the taking of any actions, in each case in connection therewith, other than to the extent such director, manager or equivalent is continuing in such capacity immediately after the Closing, (vi) cause any representation and warranty in this Agreement to be inaccurate or breached, (vii) cause or result in any closing condition to fail to be satisfied, (viii) otherwise cause or result in the breach of this Agreement or any Contract, (ix) prepare or provide any pro forma financial information or prepare any financial information in compliance with Regulation S-X, or otherwise in a form or subject to a standard different than those provided to Buyer on or prior to the date hereof, (x) subject any director, manager, officer, employee or equity holder of the Company or Blocker or their respective Affiliates to any actual or potential liability, (xi) provide any quality of earnings assessment with respect to the business of the Company or Blocker, (xii) commit to take any action under any certificate, document or instrument that is not contingent on the Closing, or (xiii) deliver or cause to be delivered any legal opinion or accountants’ cold comfort letters or reliance letters.

86

(c) Buyer shall (i) promptly on request by the Company or Blocker, reimburse the Company or Blocker, as applicable, for all reasonable out-of-pocket fees, costs and expenses (including, to the extent incurred at the request or consent of Buyer, reasonable, documented and out-of-pocket legal fees) incurred by the Company or Blocker, as applicable, in connection with the cooperation or assistance contemplated by this Section 7.22, other than (A) any ordinary course amounts payable to employees of, or consultants to, the Company with respect to services provided prior to the Closing, (B) any amounts incurred in connection with the Payoff Letters and (C) any other amounts that would have been incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby notwithstanding any debt financing (including, for the avoidance of doubt, with respect to the preparation of historical financial statements required by this Agreement), and (ii) indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Company, Blocker and their representatives from and against any losses suffered or incurred by them in connection with the arrangement of any financing, any action taken by them at the request of Buyer pursuant to this Section 7.22 and any information used in connection therewith, except to the extent resulting from the Company, Blocker and their Representatives’ bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(d) Buyer shall use reasonable best efforts to, concurrently with or promptly following the date hereof, enter into a definitive document to raise debt financing that is sufficient, when taken together with any cash on the balance sheet of the Buyer or Parent and any other available amounts on revolving lines of credit of the Buyer, to pay the Closing Consideration, any repayment or refinancing of Indebtedness contemplated by this Agreement, any other amounts required to be paid in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and all related fees and expenses of Parent and Buyer.

(e) Buyer shall (i) upon reasonable request by the Company or Blocker, keep the Company and Blocker informed on a reasonably current basis in reasonable detail of all material developments concerning the debt financing, and (ii) promptly (but in any event within two (2) Business Days after execution thereof) provide Company and Blocker with copies of the definitive document to raise debt financing contemplated by clause (d) above, and any and all future material executed amendments, modifications or replacements of the Buyer’s existing credit facility, and such other information and documentation available to Buyer as may be reasonably requested by Company or Blocker for purposes of monitoring the progress of the financing activities. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Buyer will promptly notify Company and Blocker (i) of any Event of Default (under and as defined in) the definitive documentation for the Buyer’s existing credit facility, or (ii) if for any reason either Parent or Buyer at any time believes it will not have sufficient funds available to pay the Closing Consideration, any repayment or refinancing of Indebtedness contemplated by this Agreement, any other amounts required to be paid in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and all related fees and expenses of Parent and Buyer due to Buyer’s inability to obtain all or any portion of the debt financing, including under the Buyer’s revolving line of credit.

87

(f) Buyer shall use reasonable best efforts to ensure that there is sufficient availability on its revolving line of credit (including, if necessary, using reasonable best efforts to seek any waiver or consent from the lenders under its revolving line of credit in the event that the Buyer is not otherwise able to satisfy the conditions to borrowing thereunder), when taken together with any cash on the balance sheet of the Buyer or Parent and any other debt financing raised, to pay the Closing Consideration, any repayment or refinancing of Indebtedness contemplated by this Agreement, any other amounts required to be paid in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and all related fees and expenses of Parent and Buyer.

93

(f) by the Representative if (i) all conditions set forth in Section 8.01 and Section 8.02 (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but each of which is capable of being satisfied at the Closing) have been satisfied or waived at the time when the Closing should have occurred in accordance with Section 2.02, (ii) the Company has irrevocably notified Buyer in writing that the Company stands ready, willing and able to consummate the Closing, and (iii) Buyer fails to consummate the Closing by 5:00 p.m. ET on the third (3^rd) Business Day following the receipt of such written notice from the Company.

Section 9.03 Effect of Termination; Damages. In the event of the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 9.02, (i) this Agreement shall thereafter become void and have no effect and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be abandoned, except that this Section 9.03, Section 7.07, Section 7.08, Section 10.01, Section 10.08 and Section 10.09 and the Confidentiality Agreement shall survive termination of this Agreement and remain valid and binding obligations of each of the parties, and (ii) subject to the terms and conditions of the surviving provisions of this Agreement, there shall be no liability or obligation on the part of Buyer, the Company, Blocker any other Seller or any of their respective officers or directors, and all rights and obligations of each party shall cease.

Section 10.13 Remedies.

(a) The parties understand and agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its terms and further agree that, although monetary damages may be available for the breach of such covenants and undertakings, monetary damages may be an inadequate remedy therefor. Accordingly, each party hereto agrees, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, that in the event of any breach or threatened breach by the Company or the Sellers, on the one hand, or Buyer, on the other hand, of any provision of this Agreement, the Company and the Representative, on the one hand, or Buyer, on the other hand, shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement, and to specifically enforce the

100

terms and provisions of this Agreement to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the terms and provisions of this Agreement. Any party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement or to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not be required to provide, furnish or post any bond or other security in connection with or as a condition to obtaining any such order or injunction, and each party hereby irrevocably waives any right it may have to require the provision, furnishing or posting of any such bond or other security. In the event that any action, claim, suit or proceeding should be brought in equity to enforce the provisions of this Agreement, no party shall allege, and each party hereto hereby waives the defense, that there is an adequate remedy at law. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, nothing herein shall be construed as a waiver by Buyer or the Sellers of any right they may now have or hereafter acquire to monetary damages from the other parties by reason of any injury to its property, or otherwise arising out of any breach or any otherwise wrongful act or omission by such parties.

(b) To the extent any party hereto brings an action, claim, suit or proceeding to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions of this Agreement (other than an action to enforce specifically any provision that expressly survives termination of this Agreement) when available to such party pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Termination Date shall automatically be extended to (i) the third (3^rd) Business Day following the resolution of such action, claim, suit or proceeding or (ii) such other time period established by the court presiding over such action, claim, suit or proceeding.

For purposes of this Agreement, (i) “knowledge” of the Company or Blocker means the actual knowledge of the persons listed on Schedule 10.14(i) (but solely with respect to the representation an warranties set forth opposite such Person’s name on Schedule 10.14(i)), and (ii) “knowledge” of Buyer means the actual knowledge of the persons listed on Schedule 10.14, in each case, after reasonable inquiries of their respective direct reports (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not require any such person to make any inquiry to any customer, supplier or subcontractor of the Company Group or Governmental Authority or other third party).

Section 10.15 Non-Recourse. Notwithstanding anything that may be express or implied in this Agreement to the contrary, the parties hereto agree that all claims, obligations, liabilities or causes of action (whether in contract or in tort, in law or in equity or granted by statute) based upon, arising under, or related to this Agreement or any Transaction Document, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement or any Transaction Document (including any representation or warranty made in, in connection with, or as an inducement to, this Agreement or such Transaction Document), may be made only against (and such representations and warranties are those solely of) the parties hereto or thereto. Notwithstanding anything that may be expressed or implied in this Agreement to the contrary, the parties agree and acknowledge that no recourse under this Agreement, any Transaction Document, or any documents or instruments delivered in connection with this Agreement or any Transaction Document, or any transaction contemplated by any of the foregoing, shall be had against any Seller Related Party or Buyer Related Party that is not a party to such agreement (together, the “Nonparty Affiliates”, it being acknowledged and agreed, for the avoidance of doubt, that none of Buyer, Sellers, Blocker or the Company shall be Nonparty Affiliates hereunder), whether by the enforcement of any assessment

101

or by any legal or equitable Litigation, or by virtue of any Law, or by virtue of any breach or alleged breach hereof or thereof, the negotiation, execution or performance hereof or thereof or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or in respect of any other document or theory of law or equity or in respect of any oral or written representations made or alleged to be made in connection herewith or therewith (whether at law or in equity, and whether in contract or in tort or otherwise), it being expressly agreed and acknowledged that no personal liability whatsoever shall attach to, be imposed on or otherwise be incurred by any Nonparty Affiliate for any obligation of any party under this Agreement, any Transaction Document, any documents or instruments delivered in connection with this Agreement or any Transaction Document, or any transaction contemplated by the foregoing, for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation.

Section 10.16 Waiver of Conflicts. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees, on its own behalf and on behalf of its directors, members, partners, officers, employees, and Affiliates that, for purposes of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, the Company is the client of the Identified Counsel, and not any of its individual unitholders, and the Identified Counsel has acted as counsel to the Company in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby (the “Prior Representation”). After the Closing, it is possible that the Identified Counsel will represent a Seller, and/or any of their respective Affiliates (individually and collectively, the “Seller Group”) in connection with any disputes related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Transaction Documents (the “Post-Closing Matters”). Each of Parent and Buyer hereby consents to, and waives any conflict of interest arising from, the Identified Counsel (or any successor) representing the Seller Group or any director, member, partner, officer, employee, representative or Affiliate of the Seller Group in connection with any Post-Closing Matter notwithstanding the Prior Representation. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that such consent and waiver is voluntary, that it has been carefully considered, and that the parties have consulted with counsel or have been advised they should do so. Each party further agrees that, in connection with any future dispute between Buyer, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Seller Group or any of their respective Affiliates, on the other hand, arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, as to all communications among the Identified Counsel, the Seller Group, the Company or any of its or their respective Affiliates prior to the Closing that are subject to attorney-client privilege as of immediately prior to the Closing, the attorney-client privilege belongs to the Seller Group and may be controlled by the Seller Group, and shall not pass to or be claimed by Buyer, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates.

“A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS THAT THE CREDITOR OR RELEASING PARTY DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE AND THAT, IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER, WOULD HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR OR RELEASED PARTY.”

Buyer, on behalf of itself and on behalf of each Releasing Person, and the Sellers, on behalf of themselves and each Seller Releasing Person, hereby knowingly and willingly waive the provisions of Section 1542 of the Civil Code of California and any similar Law, rule, provision or statute of Delaware, New York or any other jurisdiction that operates to bar the release of unknown claims, and acknowledges and agrees that this waiver is an essential and material term of this release and this Agreement.

106

Agreement are hereby incorporated and made a part hereof and are an integral part of this Agreement. Any capitalized terms used in any Schedule or Exhibit but not otherwise defined therein shall be defined as set forth in this Agreement. Any reference in this Agreement to gender shall include all genders and the neuter. The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and, in the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as jointly drafted by the parties hereto and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement.

Each representation and warranty is given independent effect, such that if a particular representation or warranty proves to be incorrect or is breached, the fact that another representation or warranty concerning the same or similar subject matter is correct or is not breached, whether such other representation or warranty is more general or more specific, narrower or broader or otherwise, will not affect the incorrectness or breach of the first representation or warranty.

Section 10.21 Representative.

(a) Subject to Section 10.21(b), each Seller shall be deemed to have irrevocably constituted, appointed, authorized, directed and empowered, effective as of the Closing, the Representative to act as sole and exclusive agent, attorney-in-fact and representative of such Seller, with full power of substitution, with respect to all matters under this Agreement and the agreements ancillary hereto, including giving and receiving notices hereunder, entering into any amendment or modification hereof, engaging special counsel, accountants or other advisors or incurring such other expenses on behalf of the Sellers, holding back from disbursement to any Seller any such funds to the extent it reasonably determines may be necessary or required under the terms and conditions of this Agreement or applicable Law, negotiating, settling, compromising or otherwise resolving any dispute hereunder (including any disputes relating to the Adjustment Escrow Amount) or doing any and all things and taking any and all actions, in each case that the Representative, in its sole and absolute discretion, may consider necessary or proper or convenient in connection with or to carry out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any other documents or instruments entered into in connection herewith.

107

(b) Notwithstanding Section 10.21(a), if a matter relates solely to Blocker or the Blocker Seller and could not reasonably be expected to adversely affect any Non-Blocker Seller, then the ability to take any action (or refrain from taking any action) with respect to such matter is hereby delegated solely to the Blocker Seller.

(c) Neither the Representative nor any of its officers, directors, managers, employees, agents or representatives shall incur any responsibility or liability whatsoever to any Seller by reason of any error in judgment or other act or omission performed or omitted hereunder or in connection with this Agreement or any such other agreement, instrument or document, except to the extent any act or failure to act constitutes fraud or willful misconduct. The Representative shall be entitled to rely on the advice of counsel, public accountants or other independent experts experienced in the matter at issue. The Representative shall not be required to make any inquiry concerning either the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Agreement. Each Seller shall, severally and not jointly, indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Representative from and against any and all losses, liabilities, damages, claims, penalties, fines, forfeitures, actions, fees, costs and expenses (including the fees and expenses of counsel and experts and their staffs and all expense of document location, duplication and shipment) (collectively, “Representative Losses”) arising out of or in connection with the Representative’s execution and performance of this Agreement and the agreements ancillary hereto, in each case as such Representative Loss is suffered or incurred, on a pro rata basis consistent with the Payout Schedule; provided, that in the event that any such Representative Loss is finally adjudicated to have been directly caused by the fraud or willful misconduct of the Representative, the Representative will reimburse the Sellers the amount of such indemnified Representative Loss to the extent attributable to such fraud or willful misconduct. If not paid directly to the Representative by the Sellers, any such Representative Losses may be recovered by the Representative from (i) the funds in the Representative Expense Fund and (ii) the amounts in the Adjustment Escrow Account at such time as remaining amounts would otherwise be distributable to the Sellers; provided, that while this section allows the Representative to be paid from the Representative Expense Fund and the Adjustment Escrow Account, this does not relieve the Sellers of their obligation to promptly pay such Representative Losses as they are suffered or incurred (consistent with the allocation in the immediately preceding sentence), nor does it prevent the Representative from seeking any remedies available to it at law or otherwise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in no event will the Representative be required to advance its own funds on behalf of the Sellers or otherwise. The Representative may consult with counsel of its own choice and will have full and complete authorization and protection for any action taken and suffered by it in good faith and in accordance with the opinion of such counsel. The indemnity obligations of this Section 10.21(c) shall survive the Closing, the resignation or removal of the Representative or any termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.02.

(d) Buyer shall have the right to rely upon all actions taken or omitted to be taken by the Representative hereunder or in connection with this Agreement. All decisions, actions, consents and instructions of the Representative authorized to be made, taken or given pursuant to this Section 10.21 shall be final and binding upon all the Sellers, and no Seller shall have any right to object, dissent, protest or otherwise contest the same.

108

(e) At the Closing, Buyer shall deliver to the Representative the Representative Expense Fund, to be held to cover and reimburse the fees, expenses and other monetary obligations incurred by the Representative in connection with the carrying out by the Representative of its duties under this Agreement. The Representative Expense Fund will be used for the purposes of paying directly, or reimbursing the Representative for, any third party expenses, charges or liabilities pursuant to this Agreement and any agreements ancillary hereto. The Sellers will not receive any interest or earnings on the Representative Expense Fund and irrevocably transfer and assign to the Representative any ownership right that they may otherwise have had in any such interest or earnings. The Representative will not be liable for any loss of principal of the Representative Expense Fund other than as a result of its fraud or willful misconduct. The Representative will hold these funds separate from its corporate funds, will not use these funds for its operating expenses or any other corporate purposes and will not voluntarily make these funds available to its creditors in the event of bankruptcy.

(f) As soon as practicable following the completion of the Representative’s responsibilities, the Representative will deliver (or will cause to be delivered) the balance of the Representative Expense Fund to the Sellers the portion of the balance of the Representative Expense Fund such holder is entitled to receive in accordance with this Agreement and the Payout Schedule. In the event that any amount is owed to the Representative, whether for fees, expense reimbursement or indemnification, that is in excess of the amounts remaining in the Representative’s Expense Fund, the Representative shall be entitled to be reimbursed by the Sellers on a pro rata basis (consistent with the allocation in the immediately preceding sentence), and the Sellers shall so reimburse the Representative. Upon written notice from the Representative to the Sellers as to any such owed amount, including a reasonably detailed description as to such owed amount, each Seller shall promptly deliver to the Representative full payment of his, her or its pro rata share of such owed amount (determined on a basis consistent with the allocation in the first sentence of this Section 10.21(f)). For tax purposes, the Representative Expense Fund will be treated as having been received and voluntarily set aside by the Sellers at the time of Closing.
