-13-

“Closing”) to be held at 10 a.m., Pacific time, no later than two Business Days after the last of the conditions to Closing set forth in Article VII have been satisfied or waived (other than conditions which, by their nature, are to be satisfied on the Closing Date), at the offices of Tonkon Torp LLP, 888 SW Fifth Ave., 1600 Pioneer Tower, Portland, Oregon 97204, or at such other time or on such other date or at such other place as the Shareholder Representative and Buyer may mutually agree upon in writing, including by electronic transmission (the day on which the Closing takes place being the “Closing Date ”).

Section 2.05. Purchase Price Adjustments.

(a) Estimated Working Capital. At least five Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Shareholder Representative will deliver to Buyer its preliminary draft of a written statement (the “Pre-Closing Statement ”) containing Seller’s good faith estimate of (i) Closing Working Capital as of the expected Closing Date (the “Estimated Working Capital ”); and (ii) the Estimated Cash, the Estimated Closing Indebtedness and the Estimated Transaction Expenses. All aspects of the Pre-Closing Statement will be prepared in accordance with GAAP, consistent with the historical accounting policies and practices used by the Company and the terms of this Agreement. Buyer may discuss with Seller any aspect of the Pre-Closing Statement prior to Closing. The final Pre-Closing Statement will be delivered by the Shareholder Representative to Buyer at least two Business Days prior to the Closing Date. In furtherance of the preparation of the Pre-Closing Statement and the determination of Estimated Working Capital, the Company agrees to complete, during the course of the weekend immediately preceding the contemplated Closing Date (provided that Buyer has provided the Company written notice of the contemplated Closing Date at least five Business Days prior to the Friday of such weekend): (i) a physical inventory count of finished goods, raw material, spare parts, and owned inventory at co-packers of the Company and (ii) normal cycle procedures on all other inventory, in each case, to be observed by the Company’s outside auditors. If requested by Buyer, one or more Representatives of Buyer may also observe such count and procedures, at Buyer's expense. Solely for purposes of calculating the Closing Working Capital under this Agreement, the value of the inventory on the Closing Date shall equal the value of the usable and saleable inventory of the Company (i) excluding any obsolete items consistent with the Company's past practices, (ii) based on the results of the counts described in this Section and (iii) valued at Company's cost of such inventory. For the avoidance of doubt, the preceding sentence does not apply for the allocation of purchase price as set forth in Section 6.14(g) .

(b) Buyer’s Post-Closing Final Statement. By the 75th day after the Closing Date (or, if such 75th day is not a Business Day, the first Business Day thereafter), Buyer will prepare and deliver to the Shareholder Representative a written statement (the “Final Statement ”) setting forth Buyer’s determination of Closing Working Capital which will be in form (including each item) consistent with and in accordance with the illustration of the Closing Working Capital set forth on Schedule 1.01(b) and each of the Closing Working Capital, Closing Cash, Closing Indebtedness and Transaction Expenses will be prepared in accordance with GAAP, consistent with the historical accounting policies and practices used by the Company but including normal and recurring adjustments as if made at year-end and consistent with the terms of this Agreement and the terms of this Agreement. The Shareholder Representative will cooperate with Buyer and its respective Representatives in good faith and in all reasonable respects as may be requested by Buyer in preparing the Final Statement. The Shareholder Representative will give Buyer and its

-14-

Representatives reasonable access during normal business hours and on reasonable advance notice to any relevant books and records of Seller for purposes of completing the matters contemplated in this Section 2.05 .

(c) Shareholder Representative’s Response to the Final Statement. The Closing Working Capital, Closing Cash, Closing Indebtedness and Transaction Expenses set forth in the Final Statement will become final and binding upon the parties (and become the “Final Working Capital” , the “ Final Closing Cash ”, the “ Final Closing Indebtedness ”, and the “ Final Transaction Expenses ,” respectively) 45 days after Buyer gives the Final Statement to the Shareholder Representative, unless the Shareholder Representative gives written notice of its disagreement (a “Notice of Disagreement ”) to Buyer before the end of such 45-day period. The Notice of Disagreement shall contain reasonable detail (including the disputed items and amounts (the “ Disputed Items ”), proposed correcting adjustments and the reasons for such adjustments). Buyer will give the Shareholder Representative and its Representatives reasonable access during normal business hours and on reasonable advance notice to any relevant books and records of the Company for purposes of completing the matters contemplated in this Section 2.05(c) , provided that such access will be conducted in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with normal operations of Buyer and its Affiliates. If the Shareholder Representative gives a Notice of Disagreement before the end of such 45-day period stated above, then the Closing Working Capital, Closing Cash, Closing Indebtedness and/or Transaction Expenses set forth in the Final Statement will become final and binding upon the parties (and become the Final Working Capital, the Final Closing Cash, the Final Closing Indebtedness and the Final Transaction Expenses) upon the earlier of (i) the date the parties resolve in writing any differences they have with respect to the Disputed Items identified in such Notice of Disagreement or (ii) the date any Disputed Items are finally resolved in writing by Deloitte , or such other independent public accounting firm mutually agreed upon by Buyer and the Shareholder Representative in writing (the “Arbitrator ”). Any item or amount in the Final Statement that is not a Disputed Item will be final, conclusive and binding on the parties in the manner stated in the Final Statement.

(d) Resolving Matters in Notice of Disagreement. During the 20-day period after a valid Notice of Disagreement is given, the Shareholder Representative and Buyer will attempt in good faith to resolve in writing any differences that they have regarding any Disputed Item; provided that such negotiations will not be communicated to the Arbitrator. If, at the end of such 20-day period, the Shareholder Representative and Buyer have not reached agreement on all such Disputed Items, either the Shareholder Representative or Buyer may require the items that remain in dispute to be submitted to the Arbitrator for review and resolution as an expert. Shareholder Representative and Buyer will collectively engage the Arbitrator and will enter into an engagement letter with the Arbitrator promptly after retention on terms reasonably agreeable by the Shareholder Representative and Buyer, which will include customary indemnification, confidentiality and other provisions proposed by the Arbitrator. Buyer and the Shareholder Representative will direct the Arbitrator to render a determination within 60 calendar days of its retention. Each of Buyer and the Shareholder Representative will provide Arbitrator with all of its respective working papers and supporting materials reasonably applicable to the remaining Disputed Items. The Shareholder Representative and Buyer will instruct the Arbitrator to limit its review and determination to those Disputed Items that remain in dispute, and to deliver a written report containing its calculations of each such Disputed Item. The final determination of

-15-

the Arbitrator will be made in strict accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including the definition of Closing Working Capital as calculated consistent with Schedule 1.01(b) and GAAP. The Arbitrator will render its written report resolving such Disputed Items as soon as possible after completion of written submissions to the Arbitrator. The Arbitrator will determine the items in dispute solely based on written submissions made by Shareholder Representative and Buyer (and their respective Representatives) consistent with the terms of this Agreement (and not by independent review) which submissions, respectively, will be submitted to the Arbitrator and the other party within 20 days after the Arbitrator is engaged. None of the Shareholder Representative, Buyer or their respective Representatives will have any ex parte communications or meetings with the Arbitrator concerning the subject matter to be decided without the prior written consent of the Buyer (in the case of the Shareholder Representative or his Representatives) or the Shareholder Representative (in the case of Buyer or its Representatives). The Arbitrator will not assign a value to any Disputed Item that is greater than the greater value for such Disputed Item claimed by either party in its written submission or less than the lesser value for such item claimed by either party in its written submission. The remaining Disputed Items resolved pursuant to a final written report of the Arbitrator will be final, conclusive and binding on the parties absent manifest error.

(e) Allocation of Fees and Expenses. The costs and expenses payable to the Arbitrator shall be borne by the parties as awarded by the Arbitrator in proportion as to which the Arbitrator finds that each party prevails with respect to the disputed matters. The fees and expenses of the Arbitrator incurred pursuant to this Section 2.05 shall be included in such costs and expenses. If a retainer is required by the Arbitrator, the retainer shall be split equally between Shareholder Representative (on behalf of Seller) and Buyer; provided, however, that the retainer shall be considered part of the fees and expenses of the Arbitrator and if either Shareholder Representative or Buyer has paid a portion of such retainer, such party shall be entitled to be reimbursed by the other party to the extent required by this subsection.

(f) Reconciliation Payments and Escrow Release. After the amount of Final Working Capital is finally determined, to the extent the net amount of the adjustments as finally calculated differs by more than $100,000 from the net amount used at Closing based on the Pre-Closing Statement, (i) in the case of a positive adjustment, Buyer will pay Seller (for distribution to the Shareholders) the full amount of the difference so that the adjustment will have been made based on Final Working Capital as finally determined and, in addition to the payment of such difference by Buyer, Buyer and the Shareholder Representative will instruct the Escrow Agent to release and pay the amount of the Escrow Amount in the Escrow Account to Seller, and (ii) in the case of a negative adjustment, Buyer and the Shareholder Representative will direct the Escrow Agent to pay Buyer on behalf of Seller the full amount of the difference so that the adjustment will have been made based on Final Working Capital as finally determined and the balance of the amount of the Escrow Amount in the Escrow Account, if any, will be released and paid to Seller, and in the event of either (i) or (ii) above each party will take any and all actions necessary to effectuate such release. To the extent the amount of the Escrow Amount in the Escrow Account is insufficient to satisfy the full amount due to Buyer from Seller under this Section 2.05(f) , each Shareholder shall pay its Pro Rata Share of the excess to Buyer by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Buyer. Any payments to be made pursuant to this Section 2.05(f) will be made by Buyer, Shareholders or Escrow Agent, as applicable, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated

-16-

by Buyer or the Shareholder Representative, as applicable, within five Business Days after Final Working Capital becomes final and binding on the parties, and, in the case of payments to be made to Seller, shall be paid to Seller in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement.

Section 2.06. Tax Treatment of Payments.

(a) Any payment made with respect to a purchase price adjustment under Section 2.02 or Section 2.05 shall be treated by all parties as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for federal, state, local and foreign income Tax purposes to the extent required or permitted under the Laws of the governing jurisdiction.

(b) The Shareholder Representative, Buyer and the Company, as applicable, shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to Seller such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to such payment under the Code, or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law; provided, however, Buyer shall provide written notice to Seller of its intent to so deduct and withhold at least five days before making any such deduction or withholding and shall cooperate with any reasonable request by Seller to obtain reduction of or relief from such deduction and withholding. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and timely paid to the appropriate Governmental Authority, (i) such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to Seller in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made, and (ii) the Shareholder Representative, Buyer or the Company, as applicable, shall provide to Seller written notice of the amounts so deducted or withheld.

(a) Pre-Closing Income Tax Returns . Parties acknowledge that as a result of the Restructuring, Seller will be a continuation of the Company for federal income tax purposes, and its tax year will not end on the date of the sale. Seller shall cause to be timely prepared and filed all income Tax Returns of the Seller. To the extent such Tax Returns include the impact of the sale of the LLC Interests, the Tax Returns shall be prepared in a manner consistent with the past custom and practice of the Company in preparing its Tax Returns except as required by applicable Law, and shall take into account the sale of the LLC Interests. Seller shall deliver to Buyer, at least 30 Business Days before its due date (taking into account applicable extensions), for Buyer's review, its proposed income Tax Returns that include the sale of the LLC Interests. For the avoidance of doubt, Buyer's right of review does not include a right to disagree and

-45-

submit unresolved disagreements to the Arbitrator. Seller shall provide Buyer with a copy of such income Tax Returns as finally filed within 60 Business Days after filing.

(b) Other Tax Returns . Buyer shall timely prepare or cause to be prepared all (i) all non-income Tax Returns of the LLC that are to be filed after the Closing Date, and (ii) all Tax Returns of the LLC for all periods beginning on or before the Closing Date and ending after the Closing Date (a “ Straddle Period ”). Such Tax Returns shall be prepared in a manner consistent with the past custom and practice of the Company in preparing its Tax Returns except as required by applicable Law. Buyer shall deliver each such Tax Return to Seller at least 20 Business Days prior to its due date (taking into account applicable extensions) for Seller’s review and approval. In the event Seller requests revisions to any such Tax Return within ten Business Days of receipt thereof, and Buyer disagrees with any such revisions, the parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve such disagreement, failing which the disagreement shall be submitted to the Arbitrator for resolution (the expenses of which shall be shared in a manner similar to that set forth in Section 2.05(e) ) at least five Business Days prior to the date such Tax Return is due (taking into account applicable extensions). Buyer shall timely file (taking into account applicable extensions) such Tax Returns as finally prepared pursuant to this Section 6.14(b) . If the Arbitrator does not resolve the disagreement by such date, the Tax Return shall be timely filed in accordance with Buyer's position and, if the Arbitrator subsequently resolves such disagreement in accordance with Seller's position, Seller and Buyer shall amend such Tax Return to reflect the Arbitrator's final resolution. Seller shall pay, or cause to be paid, an amount of Taxes owed with respect to such Tax Returns equal to: (A) in the case of a Pre-Closing Tax Return, all Taxes owed with respect to such Tax Returns, and (B) in the case of a Straddle Period, the portion of such Taxes which relates to the portion of such taxable period occurring on or before the Closing Date determined pursuant to Section 6.14(a) ; provided, however , that Seller shall pay not pay any particular amount of Tax pursuant to this sentence to the extent the Tax is taken into account in determining Final Working Capital. Seller shall pay or cause to be paid such amounts of Taxes within five Business Days of receiving demand therefor from Buyer.

(c) Allocation.

(i) The Seller will report all income, gain, deduction and loss from the operation and sale of the Company through and including the Closing Date, including the impact of the sale of the LLC Interests. The Buyer will report all such income, gain, deduction and loss with respect to the Company after the Closing Date. If the Company is permitted but not required under applicable Law to treat the Closing Date as the last day of a taxable period, then the parties shall treat that day as the last day of a taxable period.

(ii) In the case of any Taxes that are imposed on a periodic basis and are payable for a Straddle Period the portion of such Tax which relates to the portion of such taxable period ending on the Closing Date shall (A) in the case of any Taxes, other than Taxes based upon or related to income or receipts or expenses (e.g., payroll Taxes), be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire taxable period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the taxable period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire taxable period, and (B) in the case of any Tax based upon or related to income, receipts or expenses, be deemed equal to the amount which would be payable if the relevant taxable period ended as of the end of the Closing Date; provided,

-46-

however , that exemptions, allowances or deductions that are calculated on an annual basis (including depreciation and amortization deductions) shall be apportioned between the portion of the period ending on the Closing Date and the portion of the period beginning after the Closing Date in proportion to the number of days in each such period.

(iii) The parties agree that Transaction Tax Deductions shall, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, be considered to arise in the taxable period (or portion thereof) ending on the Closing Date and the provisions of this Agreement shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent therewith.

(d) Buyer Covenants . Without the prior written consent of Seller, which is not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and except as required by Law, Buyer shall not cause or permit the Company or any of its Affiliates to: (i) amend any Tax Returns filed with respect to any Pre Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period; (ii) make or revoke any Tax election that has retroactive effect to any Pre Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period; or (iii) extend or waive the statute of limitations with respect to a Tax for Pre Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period.

(e) Tax Contests.

The parties shall, and shall each cause their Affiliates to, provide to the other such cooperation and information, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns, determining liability for Taxes, and any audit or other proceeding with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other party’s request) the provision of records and information reasonably relevant to any such Tax Returns, Tax liability, or audit or other proceeding.

-47-

and materials relate, and abide by any applicable record retention agreements. Thereafter, the party holding such Tax Returns or related records or materials may dispose of them provided that such party shall give the other party the notice in accordance with Section 6.10 prior to doing so, and if the other party so requests allow the other party to take possession or make copies of such Tax Returns or related records or materials.

If any Indemnified Party receives notice of the assertion or commencement of any action, suit, claim or other legal proceeding made or brought by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of a party to this Agreement or a Representative of the foregoing (a “Third-Party Claim ”) against such Indemnified Party with respect to which the Indemnifying Party is obligated to provide indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party prompt written notice thereof. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Third-Party Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. Only if the Third-Party Claim is fully covered by the R&W Insurance Policy, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in, but not assume, the defense of any Third-Party Claim at the Indemnifying Party’s expense and by the Indemnifying Party’s own counsel, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in good faith in such defense; provided, however , that Seller and Shareholders agree and consent, as a condition of such entitlement of participation, that, to the extent the Indemnified Party is Buyer, Buyer’s legal counsel in the Third-Party Claim shall not be precluded from representing Buyer as against Seller or Shareholders in the event that Seller or Shareholders dispute the fact or amount of Buyer’s claim of a Loss related to such matter. Only if the Third-Party Claim is fully covered by the R&W Insurance Policy, the Indemnified Party shall have the right in its sole discretion to conduct the defense of, and to settle, any such claim, and shall notify the Indemnifying Party that it intends to assume the control of the defense of such claim; provided, that , the Indemnified Party shall conduct any such defense reasonably and in good faith and, only if such Third-Party Claim is fully covered by the R&W Insurance Policy, in the event that any claim is settled without the consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), such settlement shall not be dispositive of the amount of Losses. In the event that the Indemnifying Party has consented to any such settlement, the Indemnifying Party shall have no power or authority to object to the amount of any Third-Party Claim by the Indemnified Party. Only if the Third-Party Claim is (A) not fully covered by the R&W Insurance Policy, (B) is not solely for monetary Losses and (C) the Indemnifying Party confirms in writing that it is responsible for Losses and has an indemnification obligation pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03 , as applicable, then the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in, or by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party to assume the defense of any Third-Party Claim at the

-59-

Indemnifying Party's expense and by the Indemnifying Party's own counsel (subject to the Indemnified Party's prior written consent to the counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in good faith in such defense. Only if the Third-Party Claim is not fully covered by the R&W Insurance Policy and in that case where the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third-Party Claim, subject to limitations on settlement below, it shall have the right to take such action as it deems necessary to avoid, dispute, defend, and/or appeal any such Third-Party Claim in the name of and on behalf of the Indemnified Party and make counterclaims pertaining to any such Third-Party Claim in the name of and on behalf of the Company. In such event that the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right, at its own cost and expense, to participate in the defense of any Third-Party Claim with counsel selected by it subject to the Indemnifying Party's right to control the defense thereof. Without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), the Indemnifying Party shall not admit any liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge, any Third-Party Claim or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect thereto; provided, however, that it shall not be unreasonable for the Indemnified Party to withhold, condition, or delay consent in the event that such settlement, compromise, discharge or consent to judgment (A) does not include as an unconditional term thereof the delivery by the claimant or plaintiff to the Indemnified Party of a written release from all liability in respect of such Third-Party Claim, (B) contains any admission or statement suggesting any wrongdoing or liability on behalf of the Indemnified Party, and (C) contains any equitable order, judgment or term that in any manner affects, restrains or interferes with, or disparages, the business of the Indemnified Party or of any of the Indemnified Party's Affiliates, including the Buyer and the Company in the case of a Buyer Indemnified Party. Except to the extent it would cause the waiver of a legal privilege, the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party, Seller, Shareholders, the Shareholder Representative and Buyer shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any Third-Party Claim, including making available (subject to the provisions of Section 6.08 ) records relating to such Third-Party Claim and furnishing, without expense (other than reimbursement of actual reasonable out-of-pocket expenses) to the defending party, management employees of the non-defending party as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of such Third-Party Claim.

(b) Direct Claims. Any claim by an Indemnified Party on account of a Loss which does not result from a Third-Party Claim (a “Direct Claim ”) shall be asserted by the Indemnified Party giving the Indemnifying Party prompt written notice thereof. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Direct Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have 30 days after its receipt of such notice to respond in writing to such Direct Claim. During such 30-day period, the Indemnified Party shall allow the Indemnifying Party and its professional advisors to investigate the matter or circumstance alleged to give rise to the Direct Claim, and whether and to what extent any amount is payable in respect of the Direct Claim and the Indemnified Party shall assist the Indemnifying Party’s investigation by giving such information and assistance (including

-60-

access to the Company’s premises and personnel and the right to examine and copy any accounts, documents or records) as the Indemnifying Party or any of its professional advisors may reasonably request; provided that such access will be conducted in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with normal operations of Buyer and its Affiliates. If the Indemnifying Party does not so respond within such 30-day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have accepted such claim, in which case the Indemnified Party shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to the Indemnified Party on the terms and subject to the provisions of this Agreement.

Section 8.06. Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments . All indemnification payments made under this Agreement shall be treated by the parties as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.  

Section 8.07. Exclusive Remedies.

(b) In furtherance of the foregoing, Buyer and its Affiliates hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted under Law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, or arising in connection herewith or therewith, whether under any Laws, at common law, in equity or otherwise, whether in contract, statutory,

Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that Tonkon Torp LLP ( “Tonkon ”) has acted as counsel to the Company, Shareholder Representative, Seller, and each of the Shareholders in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement and consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(a) Buyer hereby consents and agrees to, and agrees to cause, the Company to consent and agree to, Tonkon representing the Shareholder Representative, Seller, and/or any of the Shareholders (collectively, the “Seller Parties ”) after the Closing, including, without limitation, with respect to disputes in which the interests of the Seller Parties may be directly adverse to Buyer and its subsidiaries (including the Company). In connection with the foregoing, Buyer hereby irrevocably waives and agrees not to assert, and agrees to cause the Company to irrevocably waive and not to assert, any conflict of interest arising from or in connection with (i) Tonkon’s prior representation of the Company and (ii) Tonkon’s representation of the Shareholder Representative, Seller and the Shareholders prior to and after the Closing, including the communication by Tonkon to the Seller Parties in connection with any such representation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this consent and waiver of the right to assert any conflict of interest is solely limited to matters arising in connection with the negotiation and documentation of this Agreement, the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. Nothing in this Section 10.15 shall constitute a waiver of any attorney-client privilege or any privilege associated with the Company on any matter (other than Tonkon’s representation of the Company in connection with this Agreement, the Transaction Documents, and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, in a manner that would not materially prejudice the Company’s rights and obligations vis a vis third parties), and does not waive or excuse Tonkon from complying with applicable rules of professional conduct regarding

-69-

the confidentiality of any client information of the Company other than as it pertains to Tonkon’s representation of the Company in connection with this Agreement, the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.

(b) In addition, all communications involving attorney-client confidences between the Company, Seller, the Shareholders or the Shareholder Representative, on the one hand, and Tonkon, on the other hand, in the course of the negotiation and documentation of this Agreement and the Transaction Documents shall be deemed to be attorney-client confidences that belong solely to the Seller, the Shareholders and the Shareholder Representative (and not the Company) and may be controlled by the Seller, the Shareholders and the Shareholder Representative. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, upon and after the Closing, the Seller, the Shareholders and the Shareholder Representative and their Affiliates (and not the Company) shall be the sole holders of the attorney-client privilege with respect to the negotiation and documentation of this Agreement and the Transaction Documents, and the Company shall not be a holder thereof.
