Section 1.03 Assumed Liabilities.

(i) all trade accounts payable of Seller to third parties in connection with the Business that remain unpaid and are not delinquent as of the Closing Date;

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Michael Kanter will cease vesting any of such stock that he is entitled to if he breaches or otherwise violates his Employment Agreement with Parent.

(d) Earn out payments (up to a maximum of $290,000) to be paid quarterly within sixty (60) days of the end of each complete quarter after the Closing Date at a rate equal to the greater of (i) $1.26 per case sold or (ii) five percent (5%) of the per case wholesale price; provided that each of the following conditions are also met.

The Members may elect to accept a lower earn out payment if the Business fails to be EBITDA Positive, in which case the EBITDA Positive formula will then be re-calculated. “EBITDA Positive” means that the earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, during any such quarter exceeds Expenses for such quarter. “Expenses” mean costs actually paid or accrued in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Buyer shall use all reasonable efforts to cause the Business to become and remain EBITDA Positive, and shall not take any action, or cause or permit to be done any action with the purpose, in part or whole, of avoiding or reducing earn out payments under this Section 1.04(d).

Section 1.06 Withholding Tax. Buyer shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the Purchase Price all Taxes that Buyer may be required to deduct and withhold under any provision of Tax Law. All such withheld amounts shall be treated as delivered to Seller hereunder.

Section 1.07 Third-Party Consents. To the extent that Seller’s rights under any Purchased Asset may not be assigned to Buyer without the consent of another Person which has not been obtained, this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign the same if an attempted assignment would constitute a breach thereof or be unlawful, and Seller, at its expense, shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain any such required consent(s) as promptly as possible. If any such consent shall not be obtained or if any attempted assignment would be ineffective or would impair Buyer’s rights under the Purchased Asset in question so that Buyer would not in effect acquire the benefit of all such rights, Seller, to the maximum extent permitted by Law and the Purchased Asset, shall act after the Closing as Buyer’s agent in order to obtain for it the benefits thereunder and shall cooperate, to the maximum extent permitted by Law and the Purchased Asset, with Buyer in any other reasonable arrangement designed to provide such benefits to Buyer.

The Financial Statements fairly present the financial condition of the Business as of the respective dates they were prepared and the results of the operations of the Business for the periods indicated, and were prepared by certified public accountants, in accordance with standard accounting principles applied on a consistent basis.

ARTICLE V

Covenants

Section 5.01 Confidentiality. From and after the Closing, Seller shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, hold, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its or their respective directors, officers, employees, consultants, counsel, accountants, and other agents (“Representatives”) to hold, in confidence any and all information, whether written or oral, concerning the Business, except to the extent that Seller can show that such information: (a) is generally available to and known by the public through no fault of Seller, any of its Affiliates, or their respective Representatives; or (b) is lawfully acquired by Seller, any of its Affiliates, or their respective Representatives from and after the Closing from sources which are not prohibited from disclosing such information by a legal, contractual, or fiduciary obligation. If Seller or any of its Affiliates or their respective Representatives are compelled to disclose any information by Governmental Order or Law, Seller shall promptly notify Buyer in writing and shall disclose only that portion of such information which is legally required to be disclosed, provided that Seller shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain as promptly as possible an appropriate protective order or other reasonable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such information.

Section 5.02 Costs of Operation. From and after Closing, Buyer shall pay the monthly operating expenses relating to the Purchased Assets, the Assumed Liabilities, and funding inventory, marketing and new growth opportunities (collectively, the “Operating Expenses”). For a period of one year from the Closing, Operating Expenses shall also include all payments, which amounts should not be greater than previous monthly amounts paid by the Seller, due under that certain HELOC issued by [___], and identified as Account Number [___]. Seller has represented to Buyer that the current monthly Operating Expenses exceed total Gross Profit (“Excess Burn”) by approximately $18,000 per month. Therefore, for a period of six months from the Closing, in the event that the average monthly Excess Burn exceeds $18,000, then any payment of the Purchase Price (including any earn out payments) will be reduced by the aggregate amount that the total Excess Burn incurred prior to such payment exceeds $18,000 per month, meaning a total of $108,000. For the avoidance of doubt, such Excess Burn will be determined by the current state of the business at Closing and any increases to expenses to increase revenues will be considered growth investments and excluded from the Excess Burn calculation. “Gross Profit” shall mean all of the revenues of the Business less (i) the cost of goods sold, (ii) the costs directly associated with returned products, (iii) normal and customary discounts actually paid or accrued consistent with past Business practices, and (iv) normal and customary merchant fees actually paid or accrued consistent with past Business practices.

Section 5.03 Michael Kanter Employment Agreement. At Closing, Buyer and Michael Kanter shall execute an Employment Agreement. The Employment Agreement shall include a minimum base compensation of $60,000 per year and bonuses.

Section 5.04 Non-Competition; Non-Solicitation.

(a) Seller acknowledges the competitive nature of the Business and accordingly agrees, in connection with the sale of the Purchased Assets, including the goodwill of the Business, which Buyer considers to be a valuable asset, and in exchange for good and valuable consideration, that for a period of eighteen (18) months commencing on the Closing Date (the “Restricted Period”), Seller shall not, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates to, directly or indirectly: (i) engage in or assist others in engaging in the flavored nut butter business (the “Restricted Business”) in the United States (the “Territory”); (ii) have an interest in any Person that engages directly or indirectly in the Restricted Business in the Territory in any capacity, including as a partner, shareholder, director, member, manager, employee, principal, agent, trustee, or consultant; or (iii) cause, induce, or encourage any material actual or prospective client, customer, supplier, or licensor of the Business (including any existing or former client or customer of Seller and any Person that becomes a client or customer of the Business after the Closing), or any other Person who has a material business relationship with the Business, to terminate or modify any such actual or prospective relationship. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller may own, directly or indirectly, solely as an investment, securities of any Person traded on any national securities exchange if Seller is not a controlling Person of, or a member of a group which controls, such Person and does not, directly or indirectly, own one percent (1%) or more of any class of securities of such Person.

(b) During the Restricted Period, Seller shall not, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates to, directly or indirectly, hire or solicit any person who is or was employed in the Business during the Restricted Period, or encourage any such employee to leave such employment or hire any such employee who has left such employment, except pursuant to a general solicitation which is not directed specifically to any such employees; provided that nothing in this Section 5.02(b) shall prevent Seller or any of its Affiliates from hiring any employee whose employment has been terminated by Buyer.

(c) Seller acknowledges that a breach or threatened breach of this Section 5.04 would give rise to irreparable harm to Buyer, for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy, and hereby agrees that in the event of a breach or a threatened breach by Seller of any such obligations, Buyer shall, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies that may be available to it in respect of such breach, be entitled to equitable relief, including a temporary restraining order, an injunction, specific performance, and any other relief that may be available from a court of competent jurisdiction (without any requirement to post bond or other security or to prove actual damages or that monetary damages will not afford an adequate remedy).

(d) Seller acknowledges that the restrictions contained in this Section 5.04 are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate interests of Buyer and constitute a material inducement to Buyer to enter into this Agreement and consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In the event that any covenant contained in this Section 5.04 should ever be adjudicated to exceed the time, geographic, product or service, or other limitations permitted by applicable Law in any jurisdiction or any Governmental Order, then any court is expressly empowered to reform such covenant in such jurisdiction to the maximum time, geographic, product or service, or other limitations permitted by applicable Law or such Governmental Order. The covenants contained in this Section 5.04 and each provision hereof are severable and distinct covenants and provisions. The invalidity or unenforceability of any such covenant or provision as written shall not invalidate or render unenforceable the remaining covenants or provisions hereof, and any such invalidity or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such covenant or provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 5.05 Public Announcements. Unless otherwise required by applicable Law, no party to this Agreement shall make any public announcements in respect of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby without the prior written consent of the other party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and the parties shall cooperate as to the timing and contents of any such announcement.

Section 5.06 Bulk Sales Laws. The parties hereby waive compliance with the provisions of any bulk sales, bulk transfer, or similar Laws of any jurisdiction that may otherwise be applicable with respect to the sale of any or all of the Purchased Assets to Buyer. Any Liabilities arising out of the failure of Seller to comply with the requirements and provisions of any bulk sales, bulk transfer, or similar Laws of any jurisdiction which would not otherwise constitute Assumed Liabilities shall be treated as Excluded Liabilities.

Section 5.07 Receivables. From and after the Closing, if Seller or any of its Affiliates receives or collects any funds relating to any Accounts Receivable or any other Purchased Asset, Seller or its Affiliate shall remit such funds to Buyer within five (5) business days after its receipt thereof. From and after the Closing, if Buyer or its Affiliate receives or collects any funds relating to any Excluded Asset, Buyer or its Affiliate shall remit any such funds to Seller within five (5) business days after its receipt thereof.

Section 5.08 Transfer Taxes. All sales, use, registration, and other such Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, if any, shall be borne and paid by Seller when due. Seller shall, at its own expense, timely file any Tax Return or other document with respect to such Taxes or fees (and Buyer shall cooperate with respect thereto as necessary).

Section 5.09 Further Assurances. Following the Closing, each of the parties hereto shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, execute and deliver such additional documents, instruments, conveyances, and assurances and take such further actions as may be reasonably required to carry out the provisions hereof and give effect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

Section 6.05 Certain Limitations.

(a) The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for indemnification under Section 6.02(a) or 6.03(a), as the case may be, until the aggregate amount of all Losses in respect of indemnification under Section 6.02(a) or 6.03(a) exceeds $500 (the “Deductible”), in which event the Indemnifying party shall only be required to pay or be liable for Losses in excess of the Deductible.

Section 6.06 Indemnification Procedures. Whenever any claim shall arise for indemnification hereunder, the party entitled to indemnification (the “Indemnified Party”) shall promptly provide written notice of such claim to the other party (the “Indemnifying Party”). In connection with any claim giving rise to indemnity hereunder resulting from or arising out of any Action by a Person who is not a party to this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party, at its sole cost and expense and upon written notice to the Indemnified Party, may assume the defense of any such Action with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any such Action, with its counsel and at its own cost and expense. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of any such Action, the Indemnified Party may, but shall not be obligated to, defend against such Action in such manner as it may deem appropriate, including settling such Action, after giving notice of it to the Indemnifying Party, on such terms as the Indemnified Party may deem appropriate and no action taken by the Indemnified Party in accordance with such defense and settlement shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations herein provided with respect to any damages resulting therefrom. The Indemnifying Party shall not settle any Action without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

Section 6.07 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 6.08 Cumulative Remedies. The rights and remedies provided in this ARTICLE VI are cumulative and are in addition to and not in substitution for any other rights and remedies available at law or in equity or otherwise.
