For purposes of complying with the terms set forth in this Section 2.9, each Party shall cooperate with and make available to the other Parties, their respective Representatives, and, if engaged hereunder, the Accounting Referee, all information, records, data and working papers, and shall permit access to its facilities and personnel, as may be reasonably required in connection with the preparation and analysis of the Preliminary Adjustment Statement, any Notice of Disagreement and the resolution of any disputes thereunder.

2.9.2 Adjustment Statement Review. If the Parent reasonably believes that the Preliminary Adjustment Statement is inaccurate or was not properly prepared in accordance with Section 2.9.1, the Parent shall so notify the Purchaser no later than thirty (30) days after the Parent’s receipt thereof (the “Notice of Disagreement”), setting forth in the Notice of Disagreement the Seller Parties’ objections to the Preliminary Adjustment Statement with reasonable particularity and the specific changes which the Seller Parties propose to be made in order to conform the Preliminary Adjustment Statement to the terms of Section 2.9.1.

2.9.3 Adjustment Statement Dispute Resolution. If the Parent timely notifies the Purchaser of an objection by the Seller Parties to the Preliminary Adjustment Statement in accordance with Section 2.9.2, the Parent and the Purchaser shall attempt to resolve such dispute through good faith negotiations and if the Parent and the Purchaser are unable to resolve such dispute through good faith negotiations within thirty (30) days after the Parent’s delivery of such Notice of Disagreement, then either the Parent or the Purchaser may require that the Parent and the Purchaser mutually engage and submit such dispute to, and the same shall be finally resolved in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement by a nationally recognized U.S. accounting firm that does not have a material relationship with any of the Parties and mutually agreed upon by the Parent and the Purchaser, each acting reasonably (the accounting firm ultimately chosen, the “Accounting Referee”). In resolving matters submitted to it pursuant to this Section 2.9.3, the Accounting Referee (a) shall make its final determination on all matters within thirty (30) days of its appointment; (b) shall not hold any hearings; (c) shall not be entitled to take or order the taking of depositions or other testimony under oath; and (d) with respect to each matter submitted to it, shall not resolve such matter in a manner that is more favorable to the Purchaser than the Preliminary Adjustment Statement or more favorable to the Parent than the Notice of Disagreement. The scope of the disputes to be resolved by the Accounting Referee shall be limited to (i) whether the Preliminary Adjustment Statement and the calculations thereon were prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP with respect to matters that were submitted for resolution to the Accounting Referee, (ii) whether there were mathematical errors in the Preliminary Adjustment Statement and (iii) the fees and expenses allocation pursuant to Section 2.9.4.

2.9.4 Allocation of Fees and Expenses. The Accounting Referee shall determine the proportion of its fees and expenses to be paid by the Seller Parties, on the one hand, and the Purchaser, on the other hand, based primarily on the degree to which the Accounting Referee has accepted the positions of the respective Parties with respect to those items in dispute. During any period of dispute, the Parties shall have reasonable access to the working papers of the other Party and such other Party’s respective Representatives relating to such other Party’s calculation of the Cash Consideration.

2.9.5 Final Adjustment Statement. The “Final Adjustment Statement” shall be final, binding and conclusive on the Parties pursuant to this Section 2.9 for all purposes of this Agreement and upon which a judgment may be entered by a court of competent jurisdiction. The “Final Adjustment Statement” shall mean the Preliminary Adjustment Statement: (a) in the form provided by the Purchaser pursuant to Section 2.9.1, if no Notice of Disagreement is timely provided in accordance with Section 2.9.2; (b) as adjusted to reflect any resolution of disputes by the Purchaser and the Parent, as reflected in writing by the Purchaser and the Parent, during the good faith negotiation period referred to in Section 2.9.3, if a Notice of Disagreement is timely provided in accordance with Section 2.9.2 but the Accounting Referee is not required to resolve any disputes pursuant to Section 2.9.3; or (c) as adjusted to reflect the resolution of disputes by the Purchaser and the Parent pursuant to the preceding clause (b), if any, and by the Accounting Referee pursuant to Section 2.9.3, if a Notice of Disagreement is timely provided in accordance with Section 2.9.2 and the Accounting Referee is required to resolve any disputes in accordance with Section 2.9.3.

2.9.6 Adjustment of Cash Consideration.

(a) If the Cash Consideration, as finally determined in accordance with this Section 2.9, is equal to the Estimated Cash Consideration, then there will be no adjustment to the Cash Consideration nor any payment required under this Section 2.9.6.

(b) If the Cash Consideration, as finally determined in accordance with this Section 2.9, is greater than the Estimated Cash Consideration, the Purchaser shall, within five (5) Business Days following the determination thereof as aforesaid, pay the amount of such difference to the Sellers, in cash, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing to the Purchaser by the Sellers.

(c) If the Cash Consideration, as finally determined in accordance with this Section 2.9, is less than the Estimated Cash Consideration, then within five (5) Business Days following the determination thereof as aforesaid, at the Purchaser’s sole option, (i) the Purchaser and the Parent shall provide joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent to distribute to the Purchaser from the Indemnity Escrow Amount, an amount equal to the amount of such difference (provided, however, that the Sellers shall be required to promptly reimburse and pay to the Escrow Agent any amounts so claimed from the Indemnity Escrow Amount), or (ii) the Seller Parties shall make payment of the amount of such difference to an account or accounts designated by the Purchaser.

(d) For tax purposes, any payment by the Purchaser or the Seller Parties under this Section 2.9 shall be treated as an adjustment to the Cash Consideration, unless otherwise required by Law.

2.10 Tax Withholding. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Purchaser and any other applicable withholding agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts otherwise payable under this Agreement as required by applicable Law. To the extent that amounts are so deducted or withheld, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made. All compensatory amounts subject to payroll reporting and withholding payable pursuant to or as contemplated by this Agreement shall be payable through, as applicable, the applicable company’s payroll in accordance with applicable payroll procedures. The Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to give the Seller Parties advance written notice of any intention to deduct or withhold any such amounts and the legal basis therefor, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to afford the Seller Parties the opportunity to provide the Purchaser, prior to the applicable payment, documents and forms necessary to eliminate or reduce such deduction or withholding.

2.11 Non-Assignable Assets.

2.11.1 The Seller Parties will use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain and maintain, prior to the Closing, all consents, approvals and waivers required under any Purchased Asset to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.2(c). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, and subject to the provisions of this Section 2.11, to the extent that the sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or delivery, or attempted sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or delivery, to the Purchaser of any Purchased Asset would result in a violation of applicable Law, or would require the consent, authorization, approval or waiver of a Person who is not a party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of a Party to this Agreement (including any Governmental Authority), and such consent, authorization, approval or waiver shall not have been obtained prior to the Closing, this Agreement shall not constitute a sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or delivery, or an attempted sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or delivery, thereof. Following the Closing, the Seller Parties and the Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts, and shall cooperate with each other, to obtain any such required consent, authorization, approval or waiver, or any release, substitution or amendment required to novate all Liabilities under any and all Assigned Contracts or other Liabilities that constitute Assumed Liabilities or to obtain in writing the unconditional release of all parties to such arrangements, so that, in any case, the Purchaser shall be solely responsible for such Liabilities from and after the Closing; provided, however, that neither any Seller Party nor the Purchaser shall be required to pay any consideration therefor. Once such consent, authorization, approval, waiver, release, substitution or amendment is obtained, such Purchased Asset shall, by application of Section 2.1, be automatically transferred, assigned, conveyed and delivered to the Purchaser, without the need for any further action by any Party, and for no additional consideration.

2.11.2 To the extent that any Purchased Asset and/or Assumed Liability cannot be transferred to the Purchaser following the Closing pursuant to this Section 2.11, the Seller Parties shall, following the Closing Date, use commercially reasonable efforts to enter into any reasonable arrangements and shall cooperate with the Purchaser in any reasonable arrangements (such as subleasing, sublicensing or subcontracting) designed to provide to the Parties the economic and, to the extent permitted under applicable Law, operational equivalent of the transfer of such Purchased Asset and/or Assumed Liability to the Purchaser as of the Closing and the performance by the Purchaser of its respective obligations with respect thereto. The Purchaser shall, as agent or subcontractor for the applicable Seller, pay, perform and discharge fully the Liabilities of the applicable Seller thereunder from and after the Closing Date.

Employees who accept the Purchaser’s offer of employment and become employees of the Purchaser shall be referred to herein as the “Transferred Employees.” Nothing herein shall confer any right to be employed by the Purchaser for any specified period of time following the Closing Date or in any way limit the right of the Purchaser to change the terms of employment or terminate employment of any Transferred Employee at any time following the Closing Date for any reason (or no reason). The Sellers agree that the Purchaser shall have no Liability whatsoever with respect to any Employee who is not offered employment or is offered employment but who does not become a Transferred Employee or with respect to Transferred Employees in connection with Liabilities arising prior to the Closing Date, and the Sellers shall retain, bear and discharge all Liabilities with respect to all employees and former employees of the Sellers who do not become Transferred Employees and with respect to Transferred Employees in connection with Liabilities arising prior to the Closing Date.

The Sellers shall remain solely responsible for all worker’s compensation claims made by (a) any Transferred Employee filed or presented before the Closing Date, (b) any Transferred Employee filed or presented after the Closing Date but relating to claims and/or injuries first arising before the Closing Date and (c) any employee or former employee of the Sellers who does not become a Transferred Employee.

6.3.6 WARN Act Compliance. The Purchaser and the Sellers intend that, and subject to any applicable Law, shall take all reasonable actions so that, the Transactions should not constitute a separation, termination or severance of employment of any employee who accepts an employment offer, including for purposes of any Plan that provides for separation, termination or severance benefits and the WARN Act, and that each such employee will have continuous employment immediately before and immediately after the Closing. The Purchaser shall be solely liable for all Liability in relation to compliance with the WARN Act triggered as a result of the “employment loss” (as such term is defined under the WARN Act) of any Transferred Employees following the Closing.

9.4 Indemnification Procedures.

9.4.1 If any Person who or which is entitled to seek indemnification under Section 9.2.1 or 9.3.1 (an “Indemnified Party”) receives notice of the assertion or commencement of any Third Party Claim against such Indemnified Party with respect to which the Person against whom or which such indemnification is being sought (an “Indemnifying Party”) is or may be obligated to provide indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party will give such Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof. Such notice by the Indemnified Party will describe the Third Party Claim in reasonable detail, will include copies of any complaint, petition, or any other pleading received in connection with such Third Party Claim and all available material written evidence thereof, and will indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Damages that have been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party.

9.4.2 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 Indemnifying Party’s expense and by the Indemnifying Party’s own counsel, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in good faith in such defense. In the event that the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, subject to Section 9.4.3, it shall have the right to take such action as it deems necessary to avoid, dispute, defend, appeal or make counterclaims pertaining to any such Third Party Claim in the name and on behalf of the Indemnified Party. 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. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to compromise or defend such Third Party Claim or fails to promptly notify the Indemnified Party in writing of its election to defend as provided in this Agreement, the Indemnified Party may, subject to Section 9.4.3, pay, compromise, defend such Third Party Claim and seek indemnification for any and all Damages based upon, arising from or relating to such Third Party Claim. The Seller Parties and the Purchaser shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any Third Party Claim, including making available records relating to such Third Party Claim and furnishing, without expense (other than reimbursement of actual 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; provided, that, the Parties will cooperate in good faith to implement reasonable arrangements designed to preserve any existing attorney-client privilege.

9.4.3 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into settlement of any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), except as provided in this Section 9.4.3. If a firm offer is made to settle a Third Party Claim without leading to liability or the creation of a financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party and provides, in customary form, for the unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all liabilities and obligations in connection with such Third Party Claim and the Indemnifying Party desires to accept and agree to such offer, the Indemnifying Party shall give written notice to that effect to the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer within ten (10) Business Days after its receipt of such notice, the Indemnified Party may continue to contest or defend such Third Party Claim and in such event, the maximum liability of the Indemnifying Party as to such Third Party Claim shall not exceed the amount of such settlement offer. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer and also fails to assume defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may settle the Third Party Claim upon the terms set forth in such firm offer to settle such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnified Party has assumed the defense pursuant to Section 9.4.2, it shall not agree to any settlement without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned); provided that the Third Party Claim does not involve any monetary Damages in excess of the then remaining Indemnity Escrow Amount.

9.4.4 Without limiting the requirement to obtain prior written consent of the Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 9.4.3, the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume or control the defense of any Third Party Claim, and shall pay the fees and expenses of counsel retained by the Indemnified Party in connection therewith, if (a) the claim relates to or arises in connection with any criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation, (b) the claim seeks injunctive or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates, or (c) the Indemnified Party has been advised by counsel that a reasonable likelihood exists of a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party.

9.4.5 If the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Parties shall reasonably cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the Indemnifying Party’s request and at the Indemnifying Party’s expense) the provision to the Indemnifying Party of books and records and information that are reasonably relevant to such Third Party Claim and reasonable access to the Purchaser and the Business and in the case of cooperation by the Seller Indemnified Parties, the Seller Parties, in each case at mutually convenient times so long as such access does not unreasonably interfere with the business of the Purchaser and the Business. The Parties will cooperate in good faith to implement reasonable arrangements designed to preserve any existing attorney-client privilege.

9.4.6 Any claim by an Indemnified Party on account of Damages that do not result from a Third Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”) will be asserted by giving the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof. Such notice by the Indemnified Party will describe the Direct Claim in reasonable detail, will include copies of all available material written evidence thereof, and will indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of Damages that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party.

9.4.7 A failure to give timely notice or to include any specified information in any notice as provided in Sections 9.4.1 or 9.4.6 will not affect the rights or obligations of any Party, except and only to the extent that, as a result of such failure, any Party that was entitled to receive such notice was deprived of its right to recover any payment under its applicable insurance coverage or was otherwise materially prejudiced as a result of such failure.

9.5 Recourse Against the Seller Parties.

9.5.1 In the event that there is any amount due and payable by the Seller Parties to any Purchaser Indemnified Party in connection with a Third Party Claim or Direct Claim (an “Indemnification Payment”), then such Indemnification Payment shall be payable from the Escrow Account to such Purchaser Indemnified Party upon written notice to the Escrow Agent, in respect of such claim. The Purchaser and the Parent shall instruct the Escrow Agent to release an amount equal to such Indemnification Payment amount from the Escrow Account. To the extent any such amounts in respect of indemnification obligations of the Seller Parties hereunder exceed such remaining portion of the Indemnity Escrow Amount then held in the Escrow Account, the Sellers shall pay the applicable Purchaser Indemnified Parties the amount due from the Sellers within ten (10) Business Days following agreement to, settlement of or final resolution of the Purchaser’s indemnification claim in immediately available funds.

9.5.2 On the Indemnity Escrow Release Date (or, if such day is not a Business Day, then on the immediately succeeding Business Day), any remaining portion of the Indemnity Escrow Amount shall become due and payable, and the Escrow Agent shall release (and the Purchaser and the Parent shall instruct the Escrow Agent to so release) such remaining portion to the Sellers from the Escrow Account; provided that if, on the Indemnity Escrow Release Date, any bona fide claim for indemnification by any Purchaser Indemnified Party under this Article IX is pending, then the amount that would otherwise be paid by the Escrow Agent to the Sellers pursuant to this sentence shall be reduced by the amount of such bona fide claim. The Purchaser and the Parent shall instruct the Escrow Agent not to release an amount equal to such claim amount from the Escrow Account. Such amount that is not so released from the Escrow Account as a result of such claim shall become due and payable upon the resolution with respect to such claim, and the Purchaser and the Parent shall instruct the Escrow Agent to release the applicable Indemnification Payment, if any, to such Purchaser Indemnified Party, and when no bona fide claims against the Escrow Account are remaining, release the remaining portion of the Indemnity Escrow Amount to the Sellers.

9.6 Treatment for Tax Purposes. The Parties agree that any Indemnification Payment made pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated as an adjustment to the Cash Consideration for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.

Each of the Parties irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any such court.

EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY THAT MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE IT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY OF THE AGREEMENTS DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.

11.6 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute the same agreement, and the execution of a counterpart of the signature page to this Agreement shall be deemed the execution of a counterpart of this Agreement. The delivery of this Agreement may be made by facsimile, email or other means of electronic submission in portable document format (.pdf), and such signatures shall be treated as original signatures for all applicable purposes.

11.7 Entire Agreement; Severability; Specific Performance. This Agreement (together with the Disclosure Schedules, Schedules, Annexes and Exhibits to this Agreement) and Ancillary Agreements constitute the entire agreement among the Parties and supersede any other agreements, whether written or oral, that may have been made or entered into by or among any of the Parties or any of their respective Affiliates relating to the transactions contemplated hereby. If any provision of this Agreement or the application of any such provision to any Person or circumstance is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect any other provision and such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision will be reformed, construed and enforced as if such provision had never been contained herein and there had been contained in this Agreement instead such valid, legal and enforceable provisions as would most nearly accomplish the intent and purpose of such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with the terms hereof, and that any Party shall be entitled to seek an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief to enforce the terms hereof, in addition to any other remedy to which it is entitled at law or in equity.

11.8 Confidentiality; Press Releases and Announcements. In consideration of the benefits of this Agreement to the Seller Parties and in order to induce the Purchaser to enter into this Agreement, each Seller Party hereby covenants and agrees that from the date of this Agreement, such Seller Party and its Affiliates shall keep confidential and not disclose to any other Person the terms of this Agreement or use for their own benefit or the benefit of any other Person any Confidential Information regarding the Sellers. The obligation of each Seller Party and its Affiliates under this Section 11.8 shall not apply to information which: (a) is or becomes generally available to the public without breach of the provisions of this Section 11.8; or (b) is required to be disclosed by Law, Order or regulation of a court or tribunal or government authority; provided, however, that in the case of the foregoing clause (b), such Seller Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to notify the Purchaser prior to disclosure to allow the Purchaser to take appropriate measures to preserve the confidentiality of such information, and shall cooperate with the Purchaser as reasonably requested by the Purchaser in connection with any such appropriate measures. Unless required by Law (in which case each Party agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to consult with the other Parties as far in advance as practicable prior to any such disclosure as to the form and content of such disclosure), no press releases or other public releases of information related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby will be issued or released without the consent of the Purchaser and the Seller Parties.

11.9 Expenses. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all costs and expenses, including fees and disbursements of counsel, financial advisors and accountants, incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby will be paid by the Party incurring such costs and expenses, whether or not the Closing will have occurred.

11.10 Construction; Interpretation. Each of the Parties acknowledges that it has been represented by independent counsel of its choice throughout all negotiations that have preceded the execution of this Agreement and that it has executed the same with consent and upon the advice of such counsel. Each Party and its counsel cooperated in the drafting and preparation of this Agreement, the documents referred to in this Agreement, including the Ancillary Agreements, and this Agreement will not be construed as if prepared by one of the Parties, but rather according to its fair meaning as a whole, as if all Parties had prepared it. Accordingly, any rule of Law or any legal decision that would require interpretation of any ambiguities in this Agreement against the Party that drafted it is of no application and hereby expressly waived.

Escrow Agent hereby accepts such appointment and, upon receipt by wire transfer of the Escrow Funds in accordance with Section 3, shall hold, invest and disburse the Escrow Funds in accordance with this Agreement.

3. Deposit of Escrow Funds. Simultaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, Purchaser will transfer the Escrow Funds in the amount of Three Million and No/100 U.S. Dollars ($3,000,000.00), by wire transfer of immediately available funds, to an account designated by Escrow Agent (the “Indemnification Escrow Account”).

4. Disbursements of Escrow Funds.

(e) Purchaser and each Seller may each deliver written notice to Escrow Agent in accordance with Section 15 changing their respective funds transfer instructions, which notice will be effective only upon receipt by Escrow Agent and after Escrow Agent has had reasonable time to act upon such notice.

5. Suspension of Performance; Disbursement into Court. If, at any time, (a) a dispute exists with respect to any obligation of Escrow Agent under this Agreement, (b) Escrow Agent is unable to determine, to Escrow Agent’s sole satisfaction, Escrow Agent’s proper actions with respect to its obligations hereunder, or (c) the Representatives have not, within ten (10) days of receipt of a notice of resignation, appointed a successor escrow agent to act under this Agreement, then Escrow Agent may, in its sole discretion, take either or both of the following actions:

(a) suspend the performance of any of its obligations (including without limitation any disbursement obligations) under this Agreement until such dispute or uncertainty is resolved to the sole satisfaction of Escrow Agent or until a successor escrow agent is appointed; and/or

(b) petition (by means of an interpleader action or any other appropriate method) any court of competent jurisdiction, in any venue convenient to Escrow Agent, for instructions with respect to such dispute or uncertainty and, to the extent required or permitted by law, pay into such court, for holding and disposition by such court, all Escrow Funds, after deduction and payment to Escrow Agent of all fees and expenses (including court costs and attorneys’ fees) payable to, incurred by, or expected to be incurred by Escrow Agent in connection with the performance of its duties and the exercise of its rights hereunder. Escrow Agent will have no liability to Purchaser or Sellers for any such suspension of performance or disbursement into court, specifically including any liability or claimed liability that may arise due to any delay in any other action required or requested of Escrow Agent.

6. Resolutions & Disbursement of Claims. If during the Indemnification Escrow Period, Purchaser elects to make a claim for indemnity against a Seller or Sellers, then the procedure for administering and resolving such claims is as follows:

(a) If Purchaser elects to assert a claim for indemnity as contemplated by the Purchase Agreement (an “Indemnity Claim”), it must give written notice of such claim (a “Claim Notice”) to Escrow Agent and each Seller Party prior to the expiration of the Indemnification Escrow Period. Such Claim Notice must include a description of the claim and the basis therefor and the amount, if known, asserted by Purchaser for such claim (including, if appropriate, an estimate of all costs and expenses reasonably expected to be incurred by Purchaser by reason of such claim, if known).

(b) Escrow Agent shall pay an Indemnity Claim to Purchaser from the Escrow Funds only pursuant to (i) Parent’s written direction, (ii) a Joint Written Direction or (iii) a Final Order.

7. Investment of Funds. Based upon Purchaser’s and Parent’s prior review of investment alternatives, in the absence of further specific written direction to the contrary at any time that an investment decision must be made, Escrow Agent is directed to invest and reinvest the Escrow Funds in the investment identified in Schedule A. If applicable, Purchaser and Parent acknowledge receipt from Escrow Agent of a current copy of the prospectus for the investment identified in Schedule A. Purchaser and Parent may deliver to Escrow Agent a Joint Written Direction changing the investment of the Escrow Funds, upon which direction Escrow Agent may conclusively rely without inquiry or investigation; provided, however, that Purchaser and Parent warrant that no investment or reinvestment direction will be given except in the following: (a) direct obligations of the United States of America or obligations the principal of and the interest on which are unconditionally guaranteed by the United States of America; (b) U.S. dollar denominated deposit accounts and certificates of deposit issued by any bank, bank and trust company, or national banking association (including Escrow Agent and its affiliates), which are either (i) insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to FDIC limits, or (ii) with domestic commercial banks which have a rating on their short-term certificates of deposit on the date of purchase of at least “A-1” by S&P or “P-1” by Moody’s (ratings on holding companies are not considered as the rating of the bank); or (c) money market funds, including funds managed by Escrow Agent or any of its affiliates; provided further, however, that Escrow Agent will not be directed to invest in investments that Escrow Agent determines are not consistent with Escrow Agent’s policies or practices. Purchaser and Seller Parties recognize and agree that Escrow Agent will not provide supervision, recommendations or advice relating to either the investment of Escrow Funds or the purchase or disposition of any investment and the Escrow Agent will not have any liability for any loss in an investment made pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Escrow Agent has no responsibility whatsoever to determine the market or other value of any investment and makes no representation or warranty as to the accuracy of any such valuations. To the extent applicable regulations grant rights to receive brokerage confirmations for certain security transactions, Purchaser and Seller Parties waive receipt of such confirmations.

All investments will be made in the name of Escrow Agent. Escrow Agent may, without notice to Purchaser and Seller Parties, sell or liquidate any of the foregoing investments at any time for any disbursement of Escrow Funds permitted or required hereunder and will not be liable for any loss, cost or penalty resulting from any sale or liquidation of any such investment. All investment earnings will become part of the Escrow Funds and investment losses will be charged against the Escrow Funds. With respect to any Escrow Funds or investment instruction received by Escrow Agent after 11:00 a.m., U.S. Central Time, Escrow Agent will not be required to invest applicable funds until the next Business Day. Receipt of the Escrow Funds and investment and reinvestment of the Escrow Funds will be confirmed by Escrow Agent by an account statement. Failure of Purchaser and/or Parent to inform Escrow Agent in writing of any error or omission in any such account statement within ninety (90) days after receipt will conclusively be deemed confirmation and approval by Purchaser and Seller Parties of such account statement.

8. Tax Reporting.

(a) Escrow Agent has no responsibility for the tax consequences of this Agreement and Purchaser and Sellers shall consult with independent counsel concerning any and all tax matters. Purchaser and Sellers jointly and severally agree to (i) assume all obligations imposed now or hereafter by any applicable tax law or regulation with respect to payments or performance under this Agreement and (ii) request and direct the Escrow Agent in writing with respect to withholding and other taxes, assessments or other governmental charges, and advise the Escrow Agent in writing with respect to any certifications and governmental reporting that may be required under any applicable laws or regulations. Except as otherwise agreed by Escrow Agent in writing, Escrow Agent has no tax reporting or withholding obligation except to the Internal Revenue Service with respect to Form 1099-B reporting on payments of gross proceeds under Internal Revenue Code Section 6045 and Form 1099 and Form 1042-S reporting with respect to investment income earned on the Escrow Funds, if any. Escrow Agent shall have no responsibility for Form 1099- MISC reporting with respect to disbursements that Escrow Agent makes in an administrative or ministerial function to vendors or other service providers and shall have no tax reporting or withholding duties with respect to the Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act (FIRPTA).

(b) To the extent that U.S. federal imputed interest regulations apply, Purchaser and Parent shall so inform the Escrow Agent, provide the Escrow Agent with all imputed interest calculations and direct the Escrow Agent to disburse imputed interest amounts as Purchaser and Parent deem appropriate. The Escrow Agent will rely solely on such provided calculations and information and will have no responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of any such calculations or information. Purchaser and each Seller shall provide Escrow Agent a properly completed IRS Form W-9 or Form W-8, as applicable, for each payee. If requested tax documentation is not so provided, Escrow Agent is authorized to withhold taxes as required by the United States Internal Revenue Code and related regulations.

(c) Except as otherwise directed by Purchaser and Parent in writing, Escrow Agent will report, on an accrual basis, all interest or income on the Escrow Funds as being owned by Sellers for federal income tax purposes. If any accrued interest income attributed to Sellers is subsequently disbursed by Escrow Agent to Purchaser, Purchaser and Parent shall jointly direct Escrow Agent in writing with respect to the appropriate tax treatment and reporting of such disbursements.

9. Resignation or Removal of Escrow Agent. Escrow Agent may resign and be discharged from the performance of its duties hereunder at any time by giving ten (10) days’ prior written notice to Purchaser and Parent specifying a date when such resignation will take effect and, after the date of such resignation notice, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Escrow Agent’s sole obligation will be to hold the Escrow Funds pending appointment of a successor Escrow Agent. Similarly, Escrow Agent may be removed at any time by Purchaser and Parent giving at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Escrow Agent specifying the date when such removal will take effect. If Purchaser and Parent fail to jointly appoint a successor Escrow Agent prior to the effective date of such resignation or removal, Escrow Agent may petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor escrow agent, and all costs and expenses related to such petition shall be paid jointly and severally by Purchaser and Sellers. The retiring Escrow Agent shall transmit all records pertaining to the Escrow Funds and shall pay all Escrow Funds to the successor Escrow Agent, after making copies of such records as the retiring Escrow Agent deems advisable and after deduction and payment to the retiring Escrow Agent of all fees and expenses (including court costs and attorneys’ fees) payable to, incurred by, or expected to be incurred by the retiring Escrow Agent in connection with the performance of its duties and the exercise of its rights hereunder. After any retiring Escrow Agent’s resignation or removal, the provisions of this Agreement will inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Escrow Agent under this Agreement.

10. Duties and Liability of Escrow Agent.

(a) Escrow Agent undertakes to perform only such duties as are expressly set forth herein and no duties will be implied. Escrow Agent has no fiduciary or discretionary duties of any kind. Escrow Agent’s permissive rights will not be construed as duties. Escrow Agent has no liability under and no duty to inquire as to the provisions of any document other than this Agreement, including without limitation any other agreement between any or all of the parties hereto or any other persons even though reference thereto may be made herein and whether or not a copy of such document has been provided to Escrow Agent. Escrow Agent’s sole responsibility is to hold the Escrow Funds in accordance with Escrow Agent’s customary practices and disbursement thereof in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Escrow Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to make any calculations under this Agreement, or to determine when any calculation required under the provisions of this Agreement should be made, how it should be made or what it should be, or to confirm or verify any such calculation. Escrow Agent will not be charged with knowledge or notice of any fact or circumstance not specifically set forth herein. This Agreement will terminate upon the distribution of all the Escrow Funds pursuant to any applicable provision of this Agreement, and Escrow Agent will thereafter have no further obligation or liability whatsoever with respect to this Agreement or the Escrow Funds.

(b) Escrow Agent will not be liable for any action taken or omitted by it in good faith except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines, which determination is not subject to appeal, that Escrow Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with its material breach of this Agreement was the sole cause of any loss to Purchaser or Sellers. Escrow Agent may retain and act hereunder through agents, and will not be responsible for or have any liability with respect to the acts of any such agent retained by Escrow Agent in good faith.

(c) Escrow Agent may conclusively rely upon any notice, instruction, request or other instrument, not only as to its due execution, validity and effectiveness, but also as to the truth and accuracy of any information contained therein, which Escrow Agent believes to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the person purporting to sign it and shall have no responsibility or duty to make inquiry as to or to determine the truth, accuracy or validity thereof (or any signature appearing thereon). In no event will Escrow Agent be liable for (i) acting in accordance with or conclusively relying upon any instruction, notice, demand, certificate or document believed by Escrow Agent to have been created by or on behalf of Purchaser or Sellers, (ii) incidental, indirect, special, consequential or punitive damages or penalties of any kind (including, but not limited to lost profits), even if Escrow Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such damages or penalty and regardless of the form of action or (iii) any amount greater than the value of the Escrow Funds as valued upon deposit with Escrow Agent.

(d) Escrow Agent will not be responsible for delays or failures in performance resulting from acts of God, strikes, lockouts, riots, acts of war or terror, epidemics, governmental regulations, fire, communication line failures, computer viruses, attacks or intrusions, power failures, earthquakes or any other circumstance beyond its control. Escrow Agent will not be obligated to take any legal action in connection with the Escrow Funds, this Agreement or the Purchase Agreement or to appear in, prosecute or defend any such legal action or to take any other action that in Escrow Agent’s sole judgment may expose it to potential expense or liability. Purchaser and Seller Parties are aware that under applicable state law, property which is presumed abandoned may under certain circumstances escheat to the applicable state. Escrow Agent will have no liability to Purchaser or Sellers, their respective heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns, or any other party, should any or all of the Escrow Funds escheat by operation of law.

(e) Escrow Agent may consult, at Purchaser’s and Sellers’ cost, legal counsel selected by it in the event of any dispute or question as to the construction of any of the provisions hereof or of any other agreement or of its duties hereunder, or relating to any dispute involving this Agreement, and will incur no liability and must be fully indemnified from any liability whatsoever in acting in accordance with the advice of such counsel. Purchaser and Seller Parties agree to perform or procure the performance of all further acts and things, and execute and deliver such further documents, as may be required by law or as Escrow Agent may reasonably request in connection with its duties hereunder. When any action is provided for herein to be done on or by a specified date that falls on a day other than a Business Day, such action may be performed on the following Business Day.

(f) If any portion of the Escrow Funds is at any time attached, garnished or levied upon, or otherwise subject to any writ, order, decree or process of any court, or in case disbursement of Escrow Funds is stayed or enjoined by any court order, Escrow Agent is authorized, in its sole discretion, to respond as it deems appropriate or to comply with all writs, orders, decrees or process so entered or issued, including but not limited to those which it is advised by legal counsel of its own choosing is binding upon it, whether with or without jurisdiction; and if Escrow Agent relies upon or complies with any such writ, order, decree or process, it will not be liable to any of the parties hereto or to any other person or entity by reason of such compliance even if such order is reversed, modified, annulled, set aside or vacated.

(g) Escrow Agent and any stockholder, director, officer or employee of Escrow Agent may buy, sell and deal in any of the securities of any other party hereto and contract and lend money to any other party hereto and otherwise act as fully and freely as though it were not Escrow Agent under this Agreement. Nothing herein will preclude Escrow Agent from acting in any other capacity for any other party hereto or for any other person or entity.

(h) In the event instructions, including funds transfer instructions, address change or change in contact information are given to Escrow Agent (other than in writing at the time of execution of this Agreement), whether in writing, by facsimile or otherwise, Escrow Agent is authorized, but not required, to seek confirmation of such instructions by telephone call-back to any person designated by the instructing party on Schedule C hereto, and Escrow Agent may rely upon the confirmation of anyone purporting to be the person so designated. The persons and telephone numbers for call-backs may be changed only in writing actually received and acknowledged by Escrow Agent and will be effective only after Escrow Agent has a reasonable opportunity to act on such changes. If Escrow Agent is unable to contact any of the designated representatives identified in Schedule C, Escrow Agent is hereby authorized but will be under no duty to seek confirmation of such instructions by telephone call-back to any one (1) or more of Purchaser’s or such Seller’s executive officers (“Executive Officers”), as the case may be, which will include the titles of Chief Executive Officer, President and Vice President, as Escrow Agent may select. Such Executive Officer must deliver to Escrow Agent a fully executed incumbency certificate, and Escrow Agent may rely upon the confirmation of anyone purporting to be any such officer. Purchaser and Seller Parties agree that Escrow Agent may at its option record any telephone calls made pursuant to this Section. Escrow Agent in any funds transfer may rely solely upon any account numbers or similar identifying numbers provided by Purchaser or Seller Parties to identify (i) the beneficiary, (ii) the beneficiary’s bank, or (iii) an intermediary bank, even when its use may result in a transfer of funds to a person other than the intended beneficiary or to a bank other than the intended beneficiary’s bank or intermediary bank. Purchaser and Seller Parties acknowledge that these optional security procedures are commercially reasonable.

11. Indemnification of Escrow Agent. Purchaser and Seller Parties, jointly and severally, shall indemnify and hold harmless Escrow Agent and each director, officer, employee and affiliate of Escrow Agent (each, an “Indemnified Party”) upon demand against any and all claims, actions and proceedings (whether asserted or commenced by Purchaser, a Seller Party or any other person or entity and whether or not valid), losses, damages, liabilities, penalties, costs and expenses of any kind or nature (including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses) (collectively, “Losses”) arising from this Agreement or Escrow Agent’s actions hereunder, except to the extent such Losses are finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, which determination is not subject to appeal, to have been directly caused solely by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party in connection with Escrow Agent’s material breach of this Agreement. Purchaser and Seller Parties further agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify each Indemnified Party for all costs, including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the enforcement of Purchaser’s and Seller Parties’ obligations to Escrow Agent under this Agreement. Each Indemnified Party shall, in its sole discretion, have the right to select and employ separate counsel with respect to any action or claim brought or asserted against it, and the reasonable fees of such counsel shall be paid upon demand by Purchaser and Sellers jointly and severally. The obligations of Purchaser and Seller Parties under this Section shall survive any termination of this Agreement and the resignation or removal of Escrow Agent.

12. Compensation of Escrow Agent.

(a) Fees and Expenses. Purchaser and Sellers agree, jointly and severally, to compensate Escrow Agent upon demand for its services hereunder in accordance with Schedule B attached hereto. Without limiting the joint and several nature of their obligations to Escrow Agent, Purchaser and Sellers agree between themselves that each will be responsible to the other for one-half (1/2) of Escrow Agent’s compensation. The obligations of Purchaser and Sellers under this Section shall survive any termination of this Agreement and the resignation or removal of Escrow Agent.

(b) Disbursements from Escrow Funds to Pay Escrow Agent. Escrow Agent is authorized to, and may disburse to itself from the Escrow Funds, from time to time, the amount of any compensation and reimbursement of expenses due and payable hereunder (including any amount to which Escrow Agent or any other Indemnified Party is entitled to seek indemnification hereunder). Escrow Agent shall notify Purchaser and Parent of any such disbursement from the Escrow Funds to itself or any other Indemnified Party and shall furnish Purchaser and Parent copies of related invoices and other statements.

(c) Security and Offset. Purchaser and Sellers hereby grant to Escrow Agent and the other Indemnified Parties a first priority security interest in, lien upon and right of sale and offset against the Escrow Funds with respect to any compensation or reimbursement due any of them hereunder (including any claim for indemnification hereunder). If for any reason the Escrow Funds are insufficient to cover such compensation and reimbursement, Purchaser and Sellers shall promptly pay such amounts upon receipt of an itemized invoice.

13. Representations and Warranties. Purchaser and each Seller Party each respectively make the following representations and warranties to Escrow Agent:

(a) it has full power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder; and this Agreement has been duly approved by all necessary action and constitutes its valid and binding agreement enforceable in accordance with its terms.

(b) each of the applicable persons designated on Schedule C attached hereto has been duly appointed to act as its authorized representative hereunder and individually has full power and authority on its behalf to execute and deliver any instruction or direction, to amend, modify or waive any provision of this Agreement and to take any and all other actions as its authorized representative under this Agreement and no change in designation of such authorized representatives will be effective until written notice of such change is delivered to each other party to this Agreement pursuant to Section 15 and Escrow Agent has had reasonable time to act upon it.

(c) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Escrow Agent does not and will not violate any applicable law or regulation and no printed or other material in any language, including any prospectus, notice, report, and promotional material that mentions “U.S. Bank” or any of its affiliates by name or the rights, powers, or duties of Escrow Agent under this Agreement will be issued by any other parties hereto, or on such party’s behalf, without the prior written consent of Escrow Agent.

(d) it will not claim any immunity from jurisdiction of any court, suit or legal process, whether from service of notice, injunction, attachment, execution or enforcement of any judgment or otherwise.

(e) except as otherwise provided herein, there is no security interest in the Escrow Funds or any part thereof and no financing statement under the Uniform Commercial Code is on file in any jurisdiction claiming a security interest in or describing (whether specifically or generally) the Escrow Funds or any part thereof.

14. Identifying Information. To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each person who opens an account. For a non-individual person such as a business entity, a charity, a trust or other legal entity, Escrow Agent requires documentation to verify its formation and existence as a legal entity. Escrow Agent may require financial statements, licenses or identification and authorization documents from individuals claiming authority to represent the entity or other relevant documentation. Purchaser and Seller agree to provide all information requested by Escrow Agent in connection with any legislation or regulation to which Escrow Agent is subject, in a timely manner. Escrow Agent’s appointment and acceptance of its duties under this Agreement is contingent upon verification of all regulatory requirements applicable to Purchaser, Sellers and any of their permitted assigns, including successful completion of a final background check. These conditions include, without limitation, requirements under the USA PATRIOT Act, the USA FREEDOM Act, the Bank Secrecy Act, and the U.S. Department of the Treasury Office of Foreign Assets Control. If these conditions are not met, Escrow Agent may at its option promptly terminate this Agreement in whole or in part and refuse any otherwise permitted assignment by Purchaser or Sellers, without any liability or incurring any additional costs.

15. Notices. All notices, approvals, consents, requests and other communications hereunder (each, a “Notice”) must be in writing, in English, and may only be delivered (a) by personal delivery, or (b) by national overnight courier service, or (c) by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, or (d) by facsimile transmission or (e) by email. Notice will be effective upon receipt except for notice via email, which will be effective only when the recipient, by return email or notice delivered by other method provided for in this Section, acknowledges having received that email (with an automatically generated receipt or similar notice not constituting an acknowledgement of an email receipt for purposes of this Section).
