Section 7.2Indemnification by Company Owner. Subject to the other conditions set forth in this Article VII, the Company Owner shall indemnify AQSP against, and shall hold AQSP harmless from and against, any and all Expenses incurred or sustained by, or imposed upon, Buyer based upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason of:

44

(a)any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations or warranties of the Company or the Company Owner contained in this Agreement (other than a breach of Section 3.18); or

(b)any breach or non-fulfillment of any covenant, agreement or obligation to be performed by AQSP or any Jacobs Owner pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 7.4Certain Limitations. The party making a claim under this Article VII is referred to as the “Indemnified Party”, and the party against whom such claims are asserted under this Article VII is referred to as the “Indemnifying Party”. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company and the Company Owner shall be treated as a single Indemnified Party or Indemnifying Party, as applicable. The indemnification provided for in Section 7.2 and Section 7.3 shall be subject to the following limitations:

(a)The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for indemnification under Section 7.2(a) or Section 7.3(a), as the case may be, until the aggregate amount of all Expense in respect of indemnification thereunder exceeds $30,000 (the “Deductible”), in which event the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for all Expenses in excess of the Deductible.

(b)The aggregate amount of all Expenses for which an Indemnifying Party shall be liable pursuant to Section 7.2(a) or Section 7.3(a), as the case may be (other than for breaches of Fundamental Representations and Warranties), shall not exceed ten percent (10%) of the Cash Consideration and ten percent (10%) of the Stock Consideration (the “Indemnification Cap”); provided that in no event shall the aggregate amount of all Expenses for which an Indemnifying Party shall be liable hereunder exceed the total Cash Consideration.

(c)Payments by an Indemnifying Party pursuant to Section 7.2 or Section 7.3 in respect of any Expense shall be limited to the amount of any liability or damage that remains after deducting therefrom any insurance proceeds and any indemnity, contribution or other similar payment received or reasonably expected to be received by the Indemnified Party in respect of any such claim. The Indemnified Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to recover under insurance policies or indemnity, contribution or other similar agreements for any Expenses prior to seeking indemnification under this Agreement.

45

(d)Payments by an Indemnifying Party pursuant to Section 7.2 or Section 7.3 in respect of any Expense shall be reduced by an amount equal to any Tax benefit realized or reasonably expected to be realized as a result of such Expense by the Indemnified Party.

(e)In no event shall any Indemnifying Party be liable to any Indemnified Party for any punitive, incidental, consequential, special or indirect damages, including loss of future revenue or income, loss of business reputation or opportunity relating to the breach or alleged breach of this Agreement, or diminution of value or any damages based on any type of multiple.

(f)Each Indemnified Party shall take, and cause its Affiliates to take, all reasonable steps to mitigate any Expense upon becoming aware of any event or circumstance that would be reasonably expected to, or does, give rise thereto, including incurring costs only to the minimum extent necessary to remedy the breach that gives rise to such Expense.

(g)Any indemnification payments from the Company Owner in the form of AQSP Common Stock (whether as Escrowed Shares or otherwise) shall be treated as having a value based on the Deemed Value of the Stock Consideration.

(h)Notwithstanding anything else contained herein, neither AQSP or the Jacobs Owners, on the one hand, or the Company or the Company Owner, on the other hand, shall be deemed to be in default of, or have any liability under this Agreement (or the transactions contemplated hereby), as a result of the manufacture, sale or distribution of CBD or CBD-Infused products by the Company or AQSP or in regard to any representations or warranties of any nature relating directly or indirectly to the legality or illegality of CBD or CBD-Infused products.

Section 7.5Indemnification Procedures.

(a)Third Party Claims. 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 (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

46

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 Expense that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. 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 7.5(b), the Indemnifying Party 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 the Indemnified Party, 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 notify promptly the Indemnified Party in writing of its election to defend as provided in this Agreement, the Indemnified Party may, subject to Section 7.5(b) pay, compromise and defend such Third-Party Claim and seek indemnification for any and all Expenses based upon, arising from or relating to such Third-Party Claim. AQSP and the Company Owner 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.

(b)Settlement of Third Party Claims. 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, conditioned or delayed), except as provided in this Section 7.5(b). 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) 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 7.5(a), the Indemnified Party shall not agree to any

47

settlement without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(c)Direct Claims. Any claim by an Indemnified Party on account of an Expense 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 Expense that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (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 as the Indemnifying Party or any of its professional advisors may reasonably request. If the Indemnifying Party does not so respond within such 30-day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have rejected 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.

(d)Manner of Payment. Any amounts owing from a Company Owner pursuant to this Article VII shall be made as follows: (i) first, an amount of Escrowed Cash and Escrowed Shares, pro rata in the Cash/Share Ratio, with aggregate Deemed Value equal to the lesser of (A) the aggregate amount owing or (B) the aggregate Deemed Value of any remaining Escrowed Cash and Escrowed Shares and (ii) thereafter, directly by the Company Owner to AQSP (payable in cash and shares of AQSP Common Stock, pro rata in the Cash/Share Ratio).

(e)When is Payment Due. Any cash indemnification payment to be made pursuant to this Article VII shall be effected by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the applicable account designated by AQSP or the Company Owner, as applicable. Any indemnification payment satisfied by transfer of AQSP Common Stock shall be effected by delivery of an assignment separate from certificate assigning such AQSP Common Stock to AQSP (or its designee). All such indemnification obligations shall be made within five (5) Business Days after the indemnified Expenses have been determined by (i) a final, non-appealable order or judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or (ii) a written, executed agreement between AQSP and the Company Owner.

(f)Release of Escrowed Shares and Escrowed Cash. On the twelve (12) month anniversary of the Closing Date (except if not a Business Day, then the next Business Day) (the “Release Date”), any portion of the Escrowed Cash remaining as of the Release Date shall be released to the Company Owner and in accordance with the

48

instructions of the Company Owner, and all Escrowed Shares shall be delivered to the Company Owner; provided that the Escrow Agent shall continue to hold Escrowed Cash and Escrowed Shares, pro rata in the Cash/Share Ratio, with a Deemed Value equal to the lesser of (i) the Deemed Value of the aggregate remaining Escrowed Cash and Escrowed Shares and (ii) the sum of: (A) the aggregate amount claimed by an AQSP Indemnified Party pursuant to claims made in accordance with this Article VII and not fully resolved prior to such date, plus (B) the aggregate outstanding payments pending to an AQSP Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 7.5(c). At any time following the Release Date, to the extent the Deemed Value of the Escrowed Cash and Escrowed Shares exceeds the aggregate amount claimed by the AQSP Indemnified Parties pursuant to claims made prior to the Release Date and not fully resolved prior to the time of determination, such excess shall be promptly released to each Company Owner as set forth with the previous sentence, pro rata in the Cash/Share Ratio.

2.Demand Registrations.

(a)At any time beginning on the 120^th day following the closing of the Merger Agreement, but only if the Company has not filed a Registration Statement prior thereto with respect to which the Lifted Owner was granted piggyback registration rights pursuant to Section 3 and was permitted to include for registration thereon all of the Registerable Securities, upon the request of the Lifted Owner, the Holders of Registerable Securities shall have the right to request registration under the Securities Act of all or any portion of their Registerable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-1 or any similar long-form Registration Statement (a “Long-Form Registration”) or, if eligible, Form S-3 (a “Short-Form Registration” and, together with each Long-Form Registration and Shelf Registration (as defined below), a “Demand Registration”). Each request for a Long-Form Registration or Short-Form Registration shall specify the number of Registerable Securities requested to be included in the Demand Registration. Upon receipt of any such request, the Company shall promptly (but in no event later than ten (10) days following receipt thereof) deliver notice of such request to all other Holders of Registerable Securities who shall then have ten (10) days from the date such notice is

106364262.v3

given to notify the Company in writing of their desire to be included in such registration. The Company shall prepare and file with (or confidentially submit to) the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) SEC a Registration Statement on Form S-1 or Form S-3 (as applicable) or any successor form thereto covering all of the Registerable Securities that the Holders thereof have requested to be included in such Demand Registration as promptly as practicable following the date such initial request is given and shall use its good faith efforts to cause such Registration Statement to be declared effective by the SEC as soon as practicable thereafter. The Lifted Owner shall be entitled to no more than one (1) Demand Registration in any twelve (12) month period pursuant to this Section 2 and three (3) Demand Registrations pursuant to this Section 2 in the aggregate.

(c)The Company shall not include in any Demand Registration any securities which are not Registerable Securities without the prior written consent of Lifted Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If a Demand Registration involves an underwritten offering and the managing underwriter of the requested Demand Registration advises the Company and the holders of Registerable Securities in writing that in its reasonable and good faith opinion the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be included in the Demand Registration exceeds the number of shares of Common Stock which can be sold in such underwritten offering and/or the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be included in such Demand Registration would adversely affect the price per share of the Common Stock proposed to be sold in such underwritten offering, the Company shall include in such Demand Registration (i) first, the shares of Common Stock that Lifted Holder proposes to sell, and (ii) second, the shares of Common Stock proposed to be included therein by any other Persons (including shares of Common Stock to be sold for the account of the Company and/or other holders of Common Stock) allocated among such Persons in such manner as they may agree.

(d)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company is not required to register Securities reasonably deemed by the Company’s securities counsel or by the staff of the

106364262.v3

U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to be a “primary offering” not qualifying as a secondary offering pursuant to Securities Act Rule 415(a)(1)(i).

3.Piggyback Registrations.

(a)Participation.

Each time the Company decides to file a registration statement under the Securities Act (other than on Forms S-4 or S-8) covering the offer and sale by it or any of its security holders of any of its securities for money, the Company shall give written notice thereof to all Holders of Registerable Securities. The Company shall include in such registration statement such shares of Registerable Securities for which it has received written requests to register such shares within 30 days after such written notice has been given.

(b)Underwriter’s Cutback.

If in the good faith judgment of the managing underwriter of such offering the inclusion of all of the shares of Registerable Securities and any other Common Stock requested to be registered would interfere with the successful marketing of a smaller number of such shares, then the number of shares of Registerable Securities and other Common Stock to be included in the offering (except for shares to be issued by the Company in an offering initiated by the Company) shall be reduced to such smaller number with the participation in such offering to be in the following order of priority: (1) first, the shares of Registerable Securities requested to be included, and (2) second, any other shares of Common Stock requested to be included. Any necessary allocation among the Holders of shares within each of the foregoing groups shall be pro rata among such Holders requesting such registration based upon the number of shares of Common Stock and Registerable Securities owned by such Holders.

All shares so excluded from the underwritten public offering shall be withheld from the market by the Holders thereof for a period (not to exceed 30 days prior to the effective date and 90 days thereafter) that the managing underwriter reasonably determines is necessary in order to effect the underwritten public offering. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Piggyback Registration shall be required where in the judgment of the Company, its legal counsel, and/or SEC guidance and comments the registration would be deemed a primary offering pursuant to Securities Act Rule 415, which is interpreted by the SEC staff to prohibit registrations of stock for resale where the seller is deemed to be engaged in a primary offering of behalf of the issuer.

4.Hold-Back Agreements.

Upon the written request of the managing underwriter of any underwritten offering of the Company’s securities, a Holder of Registerable Securities shall not sell, make any short sale of loan, grant any option for the acquisition of; or otherwise dispose of any Registerable Securities (other than those included in such registration) without the prior written consent of such managing underwriter for a period (not to exceed 30 days before the effective date and 90 days thereafter) that such managing underwriter reasonably determines is necessary in order to effect the underwritten public offering; provided that each of the officers and directors of the Company

106364262.v3

shall have entered into substantially similar holdback agreements with such managing underwriter covering at least the same period.

5.Registration Procedures.

If and whenever the Company is required to register Registerable Securities in a Demand Registration or a Piggyback Registration, the Company will use its best efforts to effect such registration to permit the sale of such Registerable Securities in accordance with the intended plan of distribution thereof; and pursuant thereto the Company will as promptly as practicable:

(a)prepare and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) as soon as practicable a Registration Statement with respect to such Registerable Securities and use its good faith efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective and remain effective until the Registerable Securities covered by such Registration Statement have been sold;

(b)prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and post-effective amendments to the Registration Statement, and such supplements to the Prospectus, as may be requested by any Holder of Registerable Securities or any underwriter of Registerable Securities or as may be required by the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used by the Company or by the Securities Act or rules and regulations thereunder to keep the Registration Statement effective until all Registerable Securities covered by such Registration Statement are sold in accordance with the intended plan of distribution set forth in such Registration Statement or supplement to the Prospectus; and

(c)otherwise use its good faith efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, and make generally available to its security holders earnings statements satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act, no later than 45 days after the end of any 12-month period (or 90 days, if such period is a fiscal year) (x) commencing at the end of any fiscal quarter in which Registerable Securities are sold to underwriters in an underwritten offering, or, if not sold to underwriters in such an offering, (y) beginning with the first month of the Company’s first fiscal quarter commencing after the effective date of the Registration Statement, which statements shall cover said 12-month periods.

6.Registration Expenses; Indemnification.

All Registration Expenses will be borne by the Company.

The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by law, each Holder of Registerable Securities, such Holder’s officers, directors, managers, members, partners, stockholders and affiliates, each underwriter, broker or any other Person acting on behalf of such Holder of Registerable Securities against all losses, claims, actions, damages, liabilities and expenses, joint or several, to which any of the foregoing Persons may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, actions, damages, liabilities or expenses arise out of or are based upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendment thereof or

106364262.v3

supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; and shall reimburse such Persons for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by any of them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, action, damage or liability, except insofar as the same are caused by or contained in any information furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder expressly for use therein or by such Holder’s failure to deliver a copy of the Registration Statement, Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto (if the same was required by applicable law to be so delivered) after the Company has furnished such Holder with a sufficient number of copies of the same prior to any written confirmation of the sale of Registerable Securities. This indemnity shall be in addition to any liability the Company may otherwise have.

In connection with any registration in which a Holder of Registerable Securities is participating, each such Holder shall furnish to the Company in writing such information as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection with any such Registration Statement or Prospectus and, to the extent permitted by law, shall indemnify and hold harmless, the Company, each director of the Company, each officer of the Company who shall sign such Registration Statement, each underwriter, broker or other Person acting on behalf of the Holders of Registerable Securities against any losses, claims, actions, damages, liabilities or expenses resulting from any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in the Registration Statement, Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information so furnished in writing by such Holder; provided, that the obligation to indemnify shall be several, not joint and several, for each Holder and shall not exceed an amount equal to the net proceeds (after underwriting fees, commissions or discounts) actually received by such Holder from the sale of Registerable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. This indemnity shall be in addition to any liability the selling Holder may otherwise have.

7.Exchange Act Reporting Requirements.

The Company shall use good faith efforts to timely file such information, documents and reports as the SEC may require or prescribe under Section 13 or 15(d) (whichever is applicable) of the Exchange Act. In addition, the Company shall take such other measures and file such other information, documents and reports, as shall hereafter be required by the SEC as a condition to the availability of Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or any successor provision).

8.Requirements for Participation in Underwritten Offering.

No Person may participate in any underwritten offering pursuant to a Registration hereunder unless such Person (a) agrees to sell such Person’s securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (b) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.

106364262.v3

9.Suspension of Sales.

Upon receipt of written notice from the Company that a Registration Statement or Prospectus contains a Misstatement, each Holder of Registerable Securities shall forthwith discontinue disposition of Registerable Securities until such Holder has received copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus required by Section 5 hereof; or until such Holder is advised in writing by the Company that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed, and, if so directed by the Company, such Holder shall deliver to the Company (at the Company’s expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies then in such Holders possession, of the Prospectus covering such Registerable Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice.

10.Expiration of Registration Rights.

This Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force or effect when there shall no longer be any Registerable Securities outstanding; provided, that the provisions of Section 6 shall survive any such termination.
