Kelly, Jr., solely in his capacity as representative of the Seller and the Seller Stockholders (the “Seller Representative”).

RECITALS

A. The Seller wishes to sell and assign to the Buyer Sub, and the Buyer Sub wishes to purchase and assume from the Seller, substantially all of the assets and liabilities of the Seller (as more fully described herein), on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement;

B. In accordance with applicable Law, (i) the board of directors of the Seller has deemed this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to be expedient and in the best interests of the Seller, and (ii) the Seller Stockholders have unanimously authorized this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and

C. Contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, Avon Capital Corporation, a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Buyer Parent (the “Lenexa Buyer Sub”), Adaplis, L.L.C., a Kansas limited liability company and an Affiliate of the Seller (“Adaplis”), and Gerald A. Kelly, Jr., solely in his capacity as representative of Adaplis, have entered into a purchase and sale agreement (the “Lenexa Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which Adaplis will sell, and the Lenexa Buyer Sub will purchase, the Lenexa Real Properties as of the Closing (as defined below) pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Lenexa Purchase Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement, the Parties agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

DEFINITIONS AND RULES OF CONSTRUCTION

1.1. Definitions and Defined Terms. The following terms will have the following meanings in this Agreement:

“Actual Cash and Cash Equivalents Amount” has the meaning provided in Section 2.8(d)(iii).

“Actual Closing Schedule” has the meaning provided in Section 2.8(d).

“Actual Indebtedness Amount” has the meaning provided in Section 2.8(d)(ii).

“Actual Working Capital Amount” has the meaning provided in Section 2.8(d)(i), which amount will be calculated in the manner described on the Working Capital Schedule and in accordance with Section 2.8.

“Adaplis” has the meaning provided in the Recitals.

“Admin Escrow Amount” has the meaning provided in Section 2.6(d).

“Affiliate” means, with respect to any Person, any other Person that directly or indirectly owns or controls, is owned or controlled by or is under common ownership or control with that Person. The term “control” (including with correlative meanings, the terms “controlled by” and “under common control with”), as applied to any Person, means the possession, direct or indirect, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of the Person, whether through the ownership of voting securities or other ownership interest, by contract or otherwise. Each Seller Stockholder is (and/or shall be deemed) an Affiliate of the Seller and each other Affiliate of the Seller until the Effective Time.

“After-Tax Basis” means that, in determining the amount of the payment necessary to indemnify any party against, or reimburse any party for, Losses, the amount of such Losses shall be reduced by an amount equal to the net amount of any Tax Benefit actually realized by the Tax Indemnitee or by the Indemnified Party (or any Affiliate of either) as a result of incurring such Losses, which Tax Benefit would not have arisen but for such Losses. The net amount of any Tax Benefit that results from incurring Losses shall be computed by: (i) taking into account only the Tax Benefits that actually result from the offset of such Losses against taxable income on the Tax Return for the Taxable Period during which such Losses are sustained or paid; (ii) taking into account the Tax effect on such Tax Return of any reduction in Tax basis in assets that results from the operation of Section 8.10(a) and (iii) if the parties agree that an indemnification payment cannot be treated as a purchase price adjustment pursuant to Section 8.10(a), then taking into account any Tax on any payments under Section 8.1, Section 9.2 or Section 9.3. A Tax Benefit will be treated as having been “actually realized” only if it actually reduces the Tax payable by the Tax Indemnitee or of the Indemnified Party (or any Affiliate of either) for the Taxable Period during which Losses are sustained or paid, rather than just creating or increasing a Tax loss carry-forward (or other Tax credit or benefit available for use in the future).

(a) As part of the Purchase Price, the Buyer shall pay or cause to be paid to the Seller the Earnout Amount as determined in accordance with this Section 2.9 (the “Earnout Payment”), upon the later to occur of (x) thirty-one (31) days after the delivery by the Buyer Sub of the Earnout Statement pursuant to Section 2.9(d) or (y) ten (10) days following the resolution of all disputed matters properly included in an Earnout Statement Objection Notice in accordance with Section 2.9(e). The Earnout Payment shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds pursuant to wire transfer instructions provided by the Seller to the Buyer Parent at least two Business Days prior to the date the Earnout Payment is required to be paid.

(b) The amount of the Earnout Payment (the “Earnout Amount”) shall be equal to the greater of (1) the product of (x) 2.26 times (y) the Average North American Excess, and (2) $0. For example, if the Average North American Excess is $25.0 million, the Earnout Amount would be $56.5 million (2.26 x $25.0 million).

(c) Within ninety (90) days following each of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2013, the Buyer Sub shall prepare and deliver to the Buyer Parent and the Seller Representative a statement reflecting its good faith calculations of the EBITDA and the North American Excess for the preceding calendar year. The statement shall be prepared in accordance with this Agreement and GAAP and shall be accompanied by any financial statements of the North American Business used in calculating EBITDA, all of which shall be certified by the Chief Financial Officer (or officer of equivalent or similar position) of the Buyer Sub. The Buyer Parent and the Seller Representative may discuss the calculation of EBITDA and the North American Excess and make any mutually agreed changes, but the failure to do so shall not prejudice the rights of any Party pursuant to this Section 2.9.

(d) Within ninety (90) days after December 31, 2014, the Buyer Sub shall prepare and deliver to the Buyer Parent and the Seller Representative a statement (the “Earnout Statement”) setting forth its good faith calculation of the EBITDA and the North American Excess for the 2012, 2013 and 2014 calendar years (which, for the avoidance of doubt, may be different than those provided under Section 2.9(c)), the Average North American Excess and the Earnout Amount. The EBITDA and the North American Excess for the 2012, 2013 and 2014 calendar years shall be prepared in accordance with this Agreement and GAAP and shall be

accompanied by any financial statements of the North American Business used in calculating EBITDA, all of which shall be certified by the Chief Financial Officer (or officer of equivalent or similar position) of the Buyer Sub.

(e) The Seller Representative must give written notice to the Buyer Parent, and the Buyer Parent must give written notice to the Seller Representative (each, an “Earnout Statement Objection Notice”), specifying in reasonable detail the Seller Representative’s or the Buyer Parent’s objections, as the case may be, to any amount reflected on the Earnout Statement within 30 calendar days after receipt of the Earnout Statement. Any item on the Earnout Statement to which the Seller Representative and the Buyer Parent do not timely object in an Earnout Statement Objection Notice will be deemed to be accepted by the Seller Representative and the Buyer Parent; and any amounts included within such item will be deemed to be final, binding and conclusive. If the Seller Representative and the Buyer Parent do not give an Earnout Statement Objection Notice within the 30-day period, then the Buyer Sub’s determinations of the amounts on the Earnout Statement will be final, binding and conclusive on the Parties.

(f) If the Seller Representative gives the Buyer Parent, or the Buyer Parent gives the Seller Representative, an Earnout Statement Objection Notice within 30 calendar days after receipt of the Earnout Statement, then the Buyer Parent and the Seller Representative will negotiate in good faith to resolve any disputed items concerning the Earnout Statement for the 20 calendar days after receipt of any Earnout Statement Objection Notice, and any such items (and any amounts included within such items) resolved during such negotiations will be final, binding and conclusive on the Parties.

(g) If the Buyer Parent and the Seller Representative are unable to resolve all disputed items within the 20-day period set forth in Section 2.9(f), then the Buyer Parent and the Seller Representative will submit only those items remaining in dispute for resolution to the Appointed Arbiter. The Buyer Parent and the Seller Representative will, and will cause their respective accountants to, cooperate fully with the Appointed Arbiter to facilitate its resolution of the dispute, including by providing and explaining as requested the information, data and work papers used by such Party to prepare the Earnout Statement, the Earnout Statement Objection Notice and their interpretation of the dispute. The Appointed Arbiter will determine and report to the Buyer Parent and the Seller Representative its determination on the remaining disputed items submitted for resolution (and only such remaining disputed items submitted for resolution) within 15 Business Days after the dispute is submitted to the Appointed Arbiter, and the Appointed Arbiter’s determination will be final, binding and conclusive on the Parties, except to correct manifest clerical or mathematical errors. The Buyer Parent (¹/2) and the Seller (¹/2) will bear equally the fees, costs and expenses of the Appointed Arbiter.

(h) After delivery of the Earnout Statement, the Buyer Sub will provide the Buyer Parent, the Seller Representative and their respective Representatives reasonable access during normal business hours and without significant disruption to the business of the Buyer Sub, the Buyer Parent or the Seller (as applicable) (i) to the books and records in their possession or under their control containing information directly relevant to the Earnout Statement or the Earnout Statement Objection Notice (as applicable) and (ii) to the employees or other Representatives responsible for preparing the Earnout Statement or the Earnout Statement

Objection Notice (as applicable). However, in no event will any Party be required to provide access to, or be deemed to have waived any privilege with respect to, any books, records or other information that it reasonably believes is privileged.

2.10. Imputed Interest. The Parties will treat the portion, if any, of any payment that is treated for federal income tax purposes as being paid to the Seller after the Closing Date as imputed interest to the extent required under Section 483 or Section 1274 of the Code.

7.6. Further Assurances. From time to time after the Closing, without additional consideration, each Party will (or, if appropriate, cause its Affiliates or Related Parties to)

execute and deliver further instruments and take other action as may be necessary or reasonably requested by the other Parties to make effective the transactions contemplated under this Agreement and to provide the other Parties with the intended benefits of this Agreement. Without limiting the previous sentence, upon the reasonable request of the Buyer, the Seller and each Seller Stockholder will, and will cause their respective Affiliates to, as applicable, execute, acknowledge and deliver all further assurances, deeds, assignments, consequences, powers of attorney and other instruments and paper as may be required to sell, transfer, convey, assign and deliver to the Buyer all right, title and interest in, to and under the Transferred Assets. In addition, following the Closing, the Seller will promptly forward to the Buyer Sub upon receipt any Cash and Cash Equivalents received by it from third parties in respect of any accounts receivable, inventory or other assets included in the Transferred Assets.

(a) For a period of three (3) years after the Closing Date, the Seller and each Seller Stockholder will not, and the Seller and each Seller Stockholder will cause its Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of the Buyer Parent, employ or solicit for employment any director, officer or employee of the Buyer Sub or any of its Subsidiaries or encourage any of the foregoing persons to terminate his or her relationship with the Buyer Sub or any of its Subsidiaries.

(b) For a period of three (3) years after the Closing Date, the Seller and each Seller Stockholder will not, and the Seller and each Seller Stockholder will cause its Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, engage in, hold an interest in, own, manage, operate, control, direct, be connected with as a stockholder (other than as a holder of less than two percent (2%) of a publicly-traded security), joint venturer, partner, consultant or employee with any Person that competes with the Buyer or its Affiliates in the United States and its territories, Canada and/or Mexico in the jewelry industry and/or direct-selling industry.

(c) Inasmuch as a breach of, or failure to comply with, this Section 7.7 could cause serious and substantial damage to the Buyer, if the Seller, any Seller Stockholders or any of their respective Affiliates should in any way breach, or fail to comply with, the terms of this Section 7.7, the Buyer will be entitled to seek an injunction restraining such Person from any such breach or failure. The Seller and each Seller Stockholder acknowledge that they have received an individual and personal benefit from the transactions contemplated under this Agreement. All remedies expressly provided for in this paragraph (c) are cumulative of any and all other remedies now existing at law or in equity. The Buyer will, in addition to the remedies provided in this paragraph (c), be entitled to avail itself of all such other remedies as may now or in the future exist at law or in equity for compensation, and for the specific enforcement of the covenants contained in this Section 7.7. Resort to any remedy provided for under this Agreement or provided by Law will not preclude or bar the concurrent or subsequent employment of any other appropriate remedy or remedies, or preclude the recovery by the Buyer or monetary damages and compensation.

(d) Each subsection of this Section 7.7 constitutes a separate and distinct provision. If any provision of this Section 7.7 will finally be judicially determined to be invalid,

ineffective or unenforceable, such determination will apply only in the jurisdiction in which such adjudication is made and every other provision of this Section 7.7 will remain in full force and effect. The invalid, ineffective or unenforceable provision will, without further action by the Parties, be automatically amended to effect the original purpose and intent of the invalid, ineffective or unenforceable provision; except, that such amendment will apply only with respect to the operation of such provision in the particular jurisdiction in which such adjudication is made.

(e) If it is judicially determined by a final, non-appealable judgment that the Seller or any Seller Stockholder has violated its obligations under this Section 7.7, then the applicable restrictions under this Section 7.7 will, as to the violating Party, be extended by a period of time equal to the length of the period during which such violation or violations occurred.

7.8. Use of Name.

(a) The Seller and the Seller Stockholders will not, and will cause their respective Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, after the Effective Time, use (i) the name “Silpada”, (ii) any trademarks, service marks, trade dress, trade names, Internet domain names or any registrations or applications for any Trademarks included in the Owned Intellectual Property, or (iii) any derivation or translation of any of the foregoing, or any Trademark confusingly similar thereto.

(b) The Seller acknowledges and agrees that the Buyer may, at any time after the date of this Agreement, amend the corporate name of the Buyer Sub to a name that includes the name “Silpada Designs.” The Buyer agrees that (i) the right to use the name “Silpada Designs” shall terminate upon the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Article XI hereto and (ii) within three (3) Business Days following any such termination, the Buyer Sub shall change its corporate name to a name that does not include the name “Silpada” in whole or in part and shall amend or terminate any certificate of assumed name, fictitious name, d/b/a/ filings or other filings containing the name “Silpada” so as to eliminate such name.

7.9. Director and Officer Indemnification. From and after the Closing Date for a period of six (6) years, the Buyer will not, without the Seller Representative’s prior written consent, amend the provisions of the Buyer Sub’s Organizational Documents in a manner that would adversely affect the rights of the Buyer Sub’s directors and officers to indemnification and advancement of expenses with respect to claims brought against them in their capacity as such.

7.10. Confidentiality.

(a) The terms of the Confidentiality Agreement are incorporated into this Agreement by reference and shall continue in full force and effect until the Closing, at which time the obligations under the Confidentiality Agreement shall terminate. Until the termination of this Agreement or the Confidentiality Agreement, the Seller and each Seller Stockholder agree to comply with the Seller’s confidentiality obligations to the Buyer Parent under the Confidentiality Agreement as if it were party thereto. If, for any reason, the transactions

contemplated by this Agreement are not consummated, the Confidentiality Agreement shall nonetheless continue in full force and effect in accordance with its terms.

(b) From and after the Closing, subject to applicable Law and to the extent legally permissible, the Seller and the Seller Stockholders shall treat as confidential and shall safeguard, and shall use reasonable efforts to cause their respective Representatives to treat as confidential and safeguard, any and all information, knowledge and data regarding the Buyer, the Seller or the Company Assets, in each case by using no less than a reasonable standard of care to prevent the unauthorized use, dissemination or disclosure of such information, knowledge and data.

(c) Each Party acknowledges that the confidentiality obligations set forth herein shall not extend to information, knowledge and data that is publicly available or becomes publicly available through no act or omission of the Party owing a duty of confidentiality, or becomes available on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Party owing a duty of confidentiality so long as such source is not known by such Party to be bound by a confidentiality agreement with or other obligations of secrecy to the other Party.

7.11. Benefit Matters.

(a) The Buyer Sub shall offer employment to each Employee, effective upon the Effective Time. All such offers of employment pursuant to this Section 7.11(a) will be for employment-at-will and will be contingent on the Employee satisfying customary hiring conditions, as applicable, and the Buyer Sub may terminate any Employee at any time and for any reason following the Effective Time.

(b) As of the Effective Time, the Buyer Sub shall, in accordance with their terms, where applicable, adopt and assume all of the Benefit Plans, other than the Seller 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan, and all rights, responsibilities, obligations, liabilities, insurance policies and service provider contracts thereunder. On and after the Closing Date, neither the Seller nor any of the Seller Stockholders shall have any rights, responsibilities, obligations or liabilities under any such assumed Benefit Plan, regardless of whether such rights, responsibilities, obligations or liabilities arose prior to, on or after the Closing Date, except with respect to a breach of Section 4.20 of this Agreement.

(c) The Buyer Sub shall assume the liability for accrued and unused vacation with respect to each Employee as of the Effective Time.

In the case of any Employee with an outstanding loan balance under the Seller 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan, the Seller and the Buyer shall take (or cause to be taken) any and all

necessary action, to the extent allowable by Law, to permit the Employee to rollover such outstanding loan balance to the Buyer Personal Savings Account Plan through a direct rollover on or as soon as administratively possible after the Closing Date. Each Employee shall become a participant in the Buyer Personal Savings Account Plan on the Closing Date and, for purposes of eligibility and vesting under such plan, shall receive credit for the Employee’s service with the Seller.

(e) After the Closing Date, the Buyer shall provide to the Seller, without charge, the services and support from the Seller’s former Vice President of Human Resources that are necessary for the Seller to terminate and liquidate the Seller 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan. Such services and support shall include (i) the preparation and filing of Form 5310 with the Internal Revenue Service for the termination of such plan and responding to questions and requests for information in connection with such filing, (ii) the administration of the Seller 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan through the date of final liquidation, and (iii) the preparation and filing of all Form 5500s, including the final Form 5500 following liquidation of such plan.

(f) Nothing contained herein, expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any individual (including any Employee) any right to employment or continued employment with the Buyer or any of its Affiliates for any period by reason of this Agreement. In addition, the provisions of this Agreement, in particular this Section 7.11 are solely for the benefit of the Parties to this Agreement, and no other Person (including any current or former employee, director or independent contractor or any other individual associated therewith) shall be regarded for any purpose as a third-party beneficiary of the Agreement, and nothing herein shall be construed as an amendment to any Benefit Plan or any compensation or benefit plan of the Buyer nor shall anything contained herein restrict the Buyer or its Affiliates from amending or terminating any of their employee benefit plans or compensation arrangements.

TAX MATTERS

8.1. Tax Indemnities.

(a) The Seller will indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Buyer Parent and the Buyer Sub and any parent, Subsidiary, associate, Affiliate, director, officer, employee, shareholder or agent of any of such parties, and their respective representatives, successors and assigns (in each case other than the Seller, any Seller Stockholder or any beneficiary of any Seller Stockholder that is a trust, solely in their capacity as such) (each, a “Tax Indemnitee”) from and against, and will reimburse each Tax Indemnitee for, any and all Taxes (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses in connection with any action, suit or Proceeding relating to liabilities for Taxes) arising out of or attributable to:

(i) any misrepresentation, inaccuracy or breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or promise related to Taxes made by the Seller or the Seller Stockholders contained in this Agreement;

(ii) any and all Taxes of the Seller or any of its Subsidiaries or for which the Seller or any of its Subsidiaries may be liable for any Taxable Period (including any Tax liability arising as a result of (A) a failure by the Seller or any of its Subsidiaries to properly withhold or remit the Seller’s or any Seller Stockholder’s allocable share of any income or sales Tax, (B) any Tax liability of any Seller Stockholder for which the Seller is liable under any applicable Law, and (C) the failure of the Seller or any of its Subsidiaries or any Seller Stockholder to comply with any withholding or reporting obligations), or portion thereof, ending on or before the Effective Time, except to the extent that such Taxes are specifically set forth in the Tax Reserve (if any) accrued on the most recent Interim Financial Statements or accrued as a current liability and taken into account in determining Working Capital;

(iii) any and all Taxes allocated to the Seller pursuant to Section 8.1(b), except to the extent that such Taxes are specifically set forth in the Tax Reserve (if any) accrued on the most recent Interim Financial Statements or accrued as a current liability and taken into account in determining Working Capital; and

(iv) any and all Taxes imposed on or through the Seller Stockholders or their beneficiaries.

(b) Except as provided in Section 8.2, the portion of any Tax payable with respect to any Taxable Period that begins on or before, and ends after, the Closing Date (a “Straddle Period” and a “Straddle Period Tax”), allocable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date will be:

(i) in the case of Taxes that are either (A) based upon or related to income or receipts or (B) imposed in connection with any actual or deemed sale or other transfer or assignment of property (real or personal, tangible or intangible), deemed equal to the amount that would be payable (after giving effect to amounts that may be deducted from or offset against the Taxes) if the Taxable Period ended on the Closing Date, and the Parties will elect to do so if permitted by applicable Laws; and

(ii) in the case of Taxes imposed on a periodic basis with respect to the Company Assets or the assets of any Affiliate of the Seller, or otherwise measured by the level of any item, deemed to be the amount of such Taxes for the entire Straddle Period (or, in the case of such Taxes determined on an arrears basis, the amount of such Taxes for the immediately preceding period), multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the Straddle Period ending on and including the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire Straddle Period.

(c) RESERVED.

(d) Any credit or refund resulting from an overpayment of Taxes (and associated interest) for a Straddle Period will be attributed to the Buyer or the Seller based upon the method employed in Section 8.1(b) taking into account the type of Tax to which the credit or refund relates. The Buyer will pay or cause to be paid to the Seller Representative an amount equal to (i) any Tax refund apportioned pursuant to Section 8.1(b) to a Taxable Period (or portion thereof) ending on or before the Closing Date and (ii) any Tax credit or refund apportioned pursuant to Section 8.1(b) to a period (or portion thereof) ending on or before the Closing Date to the extent such Tax credit or refund actually reduces the Tax liability of the Buyer for periods (or portion thereof) beginning after the Closing Date, within 30 days after receipt of such Tax refund or actual use of such Tax credit. The Buyer will have no obligation to pay any amounts in respect of a refund or credit to the extent such refund or credit is taken into account in determining the Actual Working Capital Amount.

(e) The Seller will pay any amount payable under this Section 8.1 with respect to an indemnity Claim by a Tax Indemnitee that can be satisfied by a remittal of Tax to a Governmental Authority within 20 calendar days after written notice by the Tax Indemnitee or the relevant Governmental Authority, as the case may be; provided, that the Tax Indemnitee will reimburse the Seller for any Tax Benefit actually realized by the Tax Indemnitee from the remittal of such Tax (or payment) within 10 days after the filing of the Tax Return reporting such Tax Benefit. The Seller will pay any amount payable under this Section 8.1 in all other cases within 20 calendar days after written demand; provided, that the Tax Indemnitee will reimburse the Seller for any Tax Benefit actually realized from the remittal of such Tax (or payment) within 10 days after the filing of the Tax Return reporting such Tax Benefit.

(f) If a Tax Indemnitee makes any Claim for indemnification under this Article VIII, the Tax Indemnitee will be entitled to collect the amount due for indemnification (subject to the procedures and limitations set forth in this Agreement) only in the following manner:

(i) the Buyer will collect such amount from the Escrow Account under the Escrow Agreement, and the amounts therein will be reduced by any amount that is owed by the Seller to any Tax Indemnitee or Indemnified Party at the time; and

(ii) after the amounts in the Indemnity Escrow Account are reduced to zero, the Seller will be liable for (and if the Seller no longer exists or does not have sufficient funds to cover such Claim, the Seller Stockholders will each be severally liable on a pro rata basis (i.e., in proportion to their ownership of the Seller at the Effective Time) for) any balance owed to the Tax Indemnitee with respect to such Claim.

The rights of any Tax Indemnitee under this Section 8.1 are the only rights and remedies that such Tax Indemnitee has with respect to the collection of indemnification Claims for Taxes under this Agreement.

8.2. Preparation of Tax Returns; Payment of Taxes.

(a) The Seller will, and the Seller Stockholders will cause the Seller to, prepare and timely file or cause to be prepared and timely filed in a manner consistent with past practice, all Tax Returns related to any Transferred Subsidiary or any other Transferred Assets that are required to be filed by the Seller or any of its Subsidiaries before the Closing Date (taking into account any extensions); except that the Seller will deliver any such Tax Return to the Buyer at least 15 Business Days before its due date, and the Buyer shall have the right to review and provide comments on such Tax Returns, and the Seller shall act reasonably in deciding whether to accept or reject such comments. If the Buyer does not provide comments within 10 Business Days after receipt of the Tax Returns, the Buyer shall be deemed to have accepted such Tax Returns without comment. The Seller will timely pay all Taxes shown as due on such Tax Returns. Such Tax Returns shall be true, correct and complete in all material respects and shall be prepared in a manner consistent with prior practice, unless otherwise required by applicable Laws. The Buyer will control the preparation and filing of any amendment or other filing related to any such Tax Return that is filed after the Closing Date, subject to the Seller’s rights and the procedures set forth in Sections 8.2, 8.5 and 8.6.

(b) The Buyer will prepare and timely file all Tax Returns required to be filed by any Transferred Subsidiary or with respect to any other Transferred Assets for all Taxable Periods ending on, before or including the Closing Date and with due dates (including by way of a properly filed extension) on or after the Closing Date (the “Post-Closing Returns”). Such Post-Closing Returns shall be true, correct and complete in all material respects and shall be prepared in a manner consistent with prior practice, unless otherwise required by applicable Law. The Buyer shall deliver any such Post-Closing Returns to the Seller Representative at least 15 Business Days before its due date, and the Seller Representative shall have the right to review and provide comments on the post-Closing Returns, and the Buyer shall act reasonably in deciding whether to accept or reject such comments. If the Seller does not provide comments within 10 Business Days after receipt of the Post Closing Returns, the Seller shall be deemed to have accepted the Post Closing Returns without comment. The Seller will pay the Buyer the amount of Taxes shown as being due on a Tax Return that are attributable to any Taxable Period (or portion thereof) ending before the Closing Date at least five (5) Business Days before the due date of any payment required to be made with respect to any Post-Closing Return, unless such cost is already borne by the Seller pursuant to other provisions of this Agreement.

8.3. Tax Cooperation and Exchange of Information. The Seller Representative and the Seller will: (i) after the Closing (x) reasonably assist and cause the Seller to assist the Buyer in preparing and filing any Tax Returns that the Buyer is responsible for preparing and filing with respect to the Transferred Assets, and (y) reasonably cooperate in preparing for any audits by, or disputes or other Proceedings with, any Taxing Authority or with respect to any matters relating to Taxes of or affecting the Seller; and (ii) make available to the Buyer and to any Taxing Authority as reasonably requested by the Buyer all information, records and documents relating to Tax matters (including Tax Returns) of or relating to the Transferred Assets relating to any Taxable Period that begins on or before the Closing Date that remain in the Seller’s control. The Buyer will keep any information obtained under this Section 8.3 confidential, except (x) as may be necessary in connection with the filing of Tax Returns or Claims for refund

or the conduct of any audit, litigation or other Proceeding with respect to Taxes, (y) with the consent of the Seller Representative, and (z) that the Seller Representative will have the right to review such information.

8.4. Conveyance Taxes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, all transfer, documentary, sales, use, registration and other such Taxes (including all applicable real estate transfer or gains Taxes and stock transfer Taxes), all penalties, interest and additions to Tax, and any and all fees incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will be paid 50% by the Buyer and 50% by the Seller. Each Party to this Agreement will cooperate in the timely making of all filings, returns, reports and forms required in connection with this Agreement.

8.5. Contests.

(a) The Buyer will notify the Seller Representative in writing of the proposed assessment or the commencement of any Tax audit or administrative or judicial Proceeding or of any demand or Claim on the Buyer and its Affiliates or the Seller that, if determined adversely to the taxpayer after the lapse of time, could be grounds for indemnification by the Seller under Section 8.1, provided that the failure to provide notice will not affect any rights under this Agreement, except to the extent the failure prejudices the Indemnifying Party. The Buyer’s notice will contain factual information (to the extent known to the Buyer and its Affiliates) briefly describing the asserted Tax liability and will include copies of any notice or other document received from any Taxing Authority in respect of any such asserted Tax liability.

(b) The Seller Representative will have the sole right, at its expense, to control the conduct of, a Tax audit or administrative or judicial Proceeding (a “Contest”) that relates to Taxable Periods ending before the Closing Date; provided that, if any such Proceeding would result in an adjustment to Tax that would have an adverse effect on the Buyer or any of its Affiliates for a period ending after the Closing Date, the Seller Representative (i) will permit the Buyer to participate in the Proceeding, and (ii) will not settle or otherwise compromise the Proceeding without the Buyer’s prior written consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld.

(c) The Seller Representative may elect to participate, at its expense, in any Contest involving any asserted Tax liability for Straddle Period Taxes with respect to which indemnity may be sought from the Seller pursuant to Section 8.1.

(d) The Buyer will not take any position or agree to any settlement in a Contest that would result in liability of the Seller or an indemnity Claim by the Buyer or the Buyer Sub against the Seller without the Seller Representative’s prior written consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, except as follows:

(i) the Buyer will notify the Seller Representative in writing (when practical) of the Buyer’s intent to take any such position in a Contest, and include with the notice a description of the Buyer’s position and its rationale for doing so;

(ii) if within 10 days after the Buyer gives its notice, the Seller Representative gives the Buyer written notice objecting to its position, then the Parties will meet, together with their respective attorney(s) and/or accountant(s), as promptly as feasible, and attempt to agree on a position and/or strategy for the Buyer to take in the matter;

(iii) if the Parties are unable to agree on a position and/or strategy, then either Party may refer the matter to the Appointed Arbiter to review their respective positions and to provide their arguments in support of the positions;

(iv) if the Appointed Arbiter determines that there is substantial authority within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.6662-4(d)(2) for the position asserted by the Seller Representative, then the Buyer will proceed with such position in the Contest;

(v) alternatively, if the Appointed Arbiter determines that there is no substantial authority for the position asserted by the Seller Representative, then the Buyer may proceed with the Contest taking the position the Appointed Arbiter recommends as being feasible, with a substantial authority basis that is favorable to the Buyer;

(vi) the Buyer will, upon the Seller Representative’s request, appeal a determination in a Contest (at the Seller Representative’s sole cost and expense, which the Seller Representative will pay directly and not from the Escrow Amount); provided, the Buyer need only assert positions that the Appointed Arbiter determines have substantial authority within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.6662-4(d)(2); and

(vii) the Buyer will pay one-half of the fees, costs and expenses of the Appointed Arbiter and the Seller Representative will pay the other one-half, except as provided in Section 8.5(d)(vi).

8.6. Audits for Pre-Closing Taxable Periods. Except as provided in Section 8.5(b), after the Closing, the Buyer will control any subsequent Tax Proceeding, or any future audit or Proceedings for any Taxable Period (including any Taxable Period ending before the Closing Date), but the Seller Representative may participate at its own expense in any such audit or Proceeding for any Taxable Period ending before the Closing Date. Neither the Buyer nor the Buyer Sub will take any position or agree to any settlement in an audit that will result in liability to the Seller or an indemnity claim against the Seller by the Buyer or the Buyer Sub without the consent of the Seller Representative, which may not be unreasonably withheld. If the Parties disagree on an audit position or settlement, then the position that the Buyer Sub will take in the Contest will be determined in accordance with the procedure set forth in Section 8.5(d).

8.7. Tax Covenants. All Contracts under which any Transferred Subsidiary may at any time have an obligation to indemnify for or share the payment of or liability for any portion of a Tax (or any amount calculated with reference to any portion of a Tax) will be terminated

with respect to the Transferred Subsidiaries, and the Transferred Subsidiaries will be released from any liability under such Contracts.

8.8. RESERVED.

8.9. Allocation of Purchase Price.

(a) The Seller and the Buyer agree to allocate the Purchase Price in accordance with the fair market value of the Transferred Assets and the Assumed Liabilities and in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder. The Purchase Price will be allocated among the Transferred Assets in accordance with Exhibit D.

(b) The Parties agree to (i) prepare and timely file (or cause there to be prepared and timely filed) all applicable Tax Returns, including Form 8594 (and all supplements thereto), in a manner consistent with the allocation of the Purchase Price as finalized and (ii) act in accordance with the allocation of the Purchase Price for all applicable Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by applicable Tax Laws, and no Party (nor any of their Affiliates) shall take or concede to a position with a Taxing Authority, that is inconsistent with the allocation of the Purchase Price unless otherwise required by applicable Tax Laws; provided that if a Party proposes a settlement or other final disposition of a contest with a Taxing Authority inconsistent, in whole or in part, with such allocation, such Party may proceed with such settlement or other disposition unless the other Party requests that such Party (x) contest the matter further and (y) agrees to bear the cost and expense of such further contest. The Seller Representative and the Buyer hereby agree to revise the allocation of the Purchase Price to reflect any adjustment made to the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 2.8 hereto.

8.10. Miscellaneous.

(a) For Tax purposes, the Parties agree to treat any indemnification payment under this Agreement, including under this Article VIII and Article IX, as adjustments to the Purchase Price, unless otherwise required by Law and subject to Section 2.10.

months after the date they are fully performed in accordance with their terms or are otherwise terminated, whether by their terms or as a matter of applicable Law. For the avoidance of doubt, if no date for full performance is specified (for example, covenants and agreements in Section 8.1), such covenants and agreements shall survive in perpetuity. Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing, with respect to any Claim under Section 8.1, the obligations of the Seller Stockholders under Section 8.1(f) will survive until the expiration of the applicable statutes of limitation for such Claim.

(c) Neither the Closing nor the Buyer Parent’s waiver of any condition to the Closing constitutes a waiver of any of the rights to indemnification the Buyer has under this Agreement, except that if the Buyer Parent agrees in writing to waive any of its rights to indemnification under Article VIII or this Article IX, the Buyer Parent will be deemed to have waived its right to indemnification as set forth in such written waiver.

9.3. Indemnification Obligations of the Buyer. From and after the Closing, and except with respect to Taxes, the Buyer will indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Seller and any parent, Subsidiary, associate, Affiliate, trustee, shareholder or Representative of any of the foregoing Persons, and their respective representatives, successors and permitted assigns (all

referred to individually as a “Seller Indemnified Party” and collectively as the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) from and against and pay on behalf of or reimburse such party in respect of, all Losses that any Seller Indemnified Party may suffer, sustain or become subject to, as a result of, in connection with, or relating to or by virtue of:

(a) any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Buyer under this Agreement or in any certificate delivered by the Buyer pursuant to this Agreement;

(b) any breach or non-fulfillment of any covenant or agreement on the part of the Buyer under this Agreement or in any certificate delivered by the Buyer pursuant to this Agreement;

(c) any Assumed Liability; and

(d) any fees, expenses or other payments incurred or owed by the Buyer or any of its respective Affiliates to any agent, broker, investment banker or other firm or Person retained or employed in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (i) the Seller Indemnified Parties are intended third party beneficiaries under this Agreement and will be entitled to directly enforce any indemnification rights to which they may be entitled under this Agreement, and (ii) the Buyer has no responsibility or liability respecting the Lenexa Purchase Agreement.

9.4. Indemnification Procedure.

(a) The Buyer Indemnified Party or the Seller Indemnified Party (as applicable, the “Indemnified Party”) will promptly give the Party or Parties obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party under this Article IX (the “Indemnifying Party”) written notice of any Claim (including any pending or threatened Claim by a third party that the Indemnified Party has determined has given or could reasonably give rise to a right of indemnification under this Agreement) to indemnification under this Article IX. The failure to provide notice will not affect any rights under this Agreement, except to the extent the failure actually prejudices the Indemnifying Party. Any notices and communications to the Seller under this Article IX will be given to or made with the Seller Representative. The Parties agree that (i) in this Article IX they intend to shorten the applicable statute of limitations period with respect to certain Claims; (ii) notices for Claims in respect of a breach of a representation, warranty, covenant or agreement must be delivered prior to the expiration of any applicable survival period specified in Section 9.1 for such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement; provided, that if, prior to such applicable date, an Indemnified Party shall have notified the Indemnifying Party in accordance with this Section 9.4 of a Claim for indemnification under this Article IX (whether or not formal legal action shall have been commenced based upon such claim), such Claim shall continue to be subject to indemnification in accordance with this Article IX notwithstanding the passing of such applicable date.

(b) If the indemnity Claim involves a Claim by a third party against any Indemnified Party (a “Third Party Claim”), the Indemnifying Party may, within 10 Business

Days after receipt of notice and upon written notice to the Indemnified Party, assume on behalf of the Indemnified Party, through counsel of its choosing and at its expense, the settlement or defense of the Third Party Claim so long as:

(i) the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party in writing within the 10 Business Day period that the Indemnifying Party will indemnify the Indemnified Party from and against any Losses the Indemnified Party may suffer resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by the Third Party Claim,

(ii) the Third Party Claim involves only money damages and does not seek an injunction or other equitable relief,

(iii) the Indemnifying Party provides the Indemnified Party with evidence reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying Party will have the financial resources to defend against the Third Party Claim and fulfill the Indemnifying Party’s indemnification obligations under this Agreement,

(iv) settlement of, or an adverse judgment with respect to, the Third Party Claim is not, in the good faith judgment of the Indemnified Party, likely to establish a precedential custom or practice adverse to the continuing business interests of the Indemnified Party or the Buyer, and

(v) the Indemnifying Party conducts the defense of the Third Party Claim actively and diligently;

except that the Indemnified Party may participate in the settlement or defense of the Third Party Claim through counsel chosen by it at its expense; and except that, if the Indemnified Party reasonably determines that representation by the Indemnifying Party’s counsel of the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party may present such counsel with a conflict of interests, then the Indemnifying Party will pay the reasonable fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party’s counsel. The Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party will reasonably cooperate with each other in connection with the Third Party Claim. For the avoidance of doubt, the Indemnified Party may take any actions reasonably necessary to defend such Third Party Claim prior to the time that it receives a notice from the Indemnifying Party in accordance with Section 9.4(b)(i) assuming the settlement or defense of the Third Party Claim. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 9.4, the Indemnifying Party may not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, settle or compromise any action or consent to the entry of any judgment in respect of any Third Party Claim, other than a solely monetary settlement including (i) full payment by the Indemnifying Party, (ii) a full release of the Indemnified Party and (iii) no finding or admission of any wrongdoing or violation of Law. If the Indemnifying Party is not contesting the Third Party Claim in good faith, then the Indemnified Party may conduct and control, through counsel of its own choosing and at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, the settlement or defense of the Third Party Claim, and the Indemnifying Party will cooperate with the Indemnified Party and its counsel in connection with such settlement or

defense. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnified Party may not settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any Claim which it is seeking indemnification from the Indemnifying Party or admit to any liability with respect to such Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party. The failure of the Indemnified Party to participate in, conduct or control the defense will not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any obligation they may have under this Agreement or otherwise under the Laws.

(c) The Indemnified Party and Indemnifying Parties will reasonably cooperate with each other to implement the provisions of this Section 9.4.

9.5. Calculation of Indemnity Payments. In connection with any indemnity Claim, the amount of any Losses for which indemnification is provided under Article VIII or this Article IX in connection with such indemnity Claim will be (a) calculated on an After-Tax Basis, with the Indemnified Party reimbursing the Indemnifying Party for any Tax Benefit actually realized from the payment of the indemnity Claim within 10 days after the filing of the Tax Return reporting such Tax Benefit, and (b) (i) reduced by the amount of any insurance proceeds actually received by the Indemnified Party in connection with such indemnity Claim or such Losses and (ii) increased by the amount of any costs of collection in connection with such indemnity Claim or such Losses; provided that if the Indemnified Party actually receives any insurance proceeds in connection with such indemnity Claim or such Losses after the Indemnifying Parties indemnifies the Indemnified Party for such Losses, the Indemnified Party will remit to the Indemnifying Party any such insurance proceeds actually received, but only up to the amount of indemnification proceeds actually received from the Indemnifying Party.

9.6. Tax Matters. The rights and obligations of the Parties with respect to indemnification for any Tax matters (except as specifically provided elsewhere in this Article IX or in this Agreement) will be governed solely by Article VIII.

9.7. Relation of Indemnity to Indemnity Escrow Amount. Other than with respect to Taxes (which are governed by Article VIII):

(a) If a Buyer Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification from the Seller under Article IX, the Buyer will collect the amount due for indemnification (subject to the procedures and limitations set forth in this Agreement) solely from the funds then held in the Indemnity Escrow Account under the Escrow Agreement, except in the case of a breach of Section 2.8, for which any other recourse is expressly permitted.

(b) From and after the Closing, the right to indemnification of the Indemnified Parties pursuant to Article IX will be (i) the sole and exclusive remedy for any breach of any representation or warranty of an Indemnifying Party, and (ii) the sole and exclusive monetary remedy for any breach of any covenant or agreement of an Indemnifying Party (it being understood that the Parties have the right to seek equitable relief, including specific performance), in either case (i) or (ii), whether a contract claim, a tort claim, a statutory claim or otherwise (other than with respect to any Losses arising out of fraud or criminal misconduct or bad faith), (A) under this Agreement or the Disclosure Schedule, (B) in any certificate or other

document delivered by or on behalf of any Party under this Agreement or (C) otherwise arising from or in connection with the transactions contemplated under this Agreement.

9.8. Indemnification Amounts; Limitations. Except with respect to an indemnification Claim under Article VIII, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement:

(a) the Seller will not be liable for any indemnification Claim pursuant to Section 9.2(a) (other than with regard to a breach of any Fundamental Representations or Extended Representations made by the Seller or the Seller Stockholders) unless and until the Dollar amount of all indemnifiable Losses under this Agreement in the aggregate exceeds $6,270,000, in which case the Seller will be obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party for the total amount of all indemnifiable Losses. For the avoidance of doubt, any indemnifiable Losses in connection with a breach of any Fundamental Representation or Extended Representation shall be subject to indemnification under Section 9.2(a) without regard to the foregoing threshold.

(b) in no event will the aggregate indemnification obligations of the Seller pursuant to Section 9.2 exceed the Indemnity Escrow Amount, except that an Indemnified Party’s right to seek indemnification under this Agreement for any Losses arising out of fraud or criminal misconduct or bad faith will not be subject to or limited by the limits contained in this Section 9.8.

(c) the Seller will not be liable for any Losses that have been expressly included in the calculation of the Post-Closing Purchase Price Adjustment Amount pursuant to Section 2.8.

(d) the Seller will not be liable for any incidental, consequential or punitive damages from a breach of the representations and warranties or covenants contained in this Agreement unless (i) the Seller or any Seller Stockholder (or in the case of a Seller Stockholder that is a trust, the trustee and/or any beneficiary of such trust) had actual knowledge of the breach and did not disclose it on the Disclosure Schedule or (ii) such damages are awarded in connection with a Third Party Claim.

(e) The Indemnified Parties and Tax Indemnitees are required to take commercially reasonable action to mitigate their Losses.

(c) All of the immunities and powers granted to the Seller Representative under this Agreement will survive the Closing and/or any termination of this Agreement.

ARTICLE XI

TERMINATION

11.1. Termination Events. This Agreement may, by notice given prior to or at the Closing, be terminated:

(a) by either the Buyer Parent or the Seller if (i) the Closing has not occurred (other than through the failure of any Party seeking to terminate this Agreement to comply in all material respects with its obligations under this Agreement) on or before the date that is 75 days after the date of this Agreement, or such later date as the Parties may agree upon (the “Outside Date”); provided, however, that if the sole reason that the Closing has not occurred is that the condition set forth on Section 3.5(a) has not been fulfilled on or prior to the date that is 75 days after the date of this Agreement, such date shall automatically be extended to the date that is 90 days after the date of this Agreement, which date shall be the “Outside Date” for all purposes of this Article XI, or (ii) any condition set forth in Section 3.5 is incapable of being satisfied prior to the Outside Date;

(b) by the Buyer Parent (but only so long as the Buyer is not in material breach of its obligations under this Agreement) if there has been a material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of the Seller or the Seller Stockholders such that one or more of the conditions to Closing set forth in Section 3.3 and Section 3.5 are not capable of being fulfilled as of the Outside Date;

(c) by the Seller Representative (but only so long as the Seller and the Seller Stockholders are not in material breach of their respective obligations under this Agreement) if there has been a material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of the Buyer such that one or more of the conditions to Closing set forth in Section 3.4 and Section 3.5 are not capable of being fulfilled as of the Outside Date; or

(d) by mutual consent of the Buyer Parent and the Seller.

11.2. Effect of Termination. Each Party’s right of termination under Section 11.1 is in addition to any other rights it may have under this Agreement or otherwise, and the exercise of a right of termination will not be an election of remedies. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 11.1, all further obligations of the Parties under this Agreement will terminate, except that the rights and obligations in this Section 11.2 and Article XII will survive any termination. In addition, if this Agreement is terminated by a Party because one or more of the conditions to the terminating Party’s obligations under this Agreement is not satisfied as a result of the other Party’s failure to comply with its obligations under this Agreement, the terminating Party’s right to pursue all legal remedies will survive such termination unimpaired.

12.7. Governing Law. All issues and questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement will be governed by and construed under Delaware law, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules or provisions (whether of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than Delaware.

12.8. Consent to Jurisdiction. The Buyer Parent, the Buyer Sub, each Seller Stockholder, the Seller and the Seller Representative in his capacity as such irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the District of Delaware or any Delaware court sitting in Wilmington, Delaware for the purpose of any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of or based on this Agreement or the subject matter of this Agreement.

12.10. Specific Performance.

(a) Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, the rights and remedies of the Parties hereto are cumulative. The transactions contemplated under this Agreement are unique transactions and any failure on the part of any Party to complete the transactions contemplated under this Agreement on the terms of this Agreement will not be fully compensable in damages and the breach or threatened breach of the provisions of this Agreement would cause the other Parties irreparable harm.

(b) In the event of any breach or threatened breach by the Seller Representative, any Seller Stockholder or the Seller, on the one hand, or the Buyer, on the other hand, of any of their respective covenants or obligations set forth in this Agreement, the Seller Representative, each Seller Stockholder and the Seller, on the one hand, and the Buyer, on the other hand (as applicable), are entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement by the other (as applicable), and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of the other under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 12.10 shall survive the Closing and shall be available with respect to any breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement with respect to covenants and obligations required to be performed under this Agreement.

12.11. Prevailing Party. If any litigation or other court action, arbitration or similar adjudicatory proceeding is commenced by any party to enforce its rights under this Agreement against any other party, all fees, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys fees and court costs, incurred by the prevailing party in such litigation, action, arbitration or proceeding will be reimbursed by the losing party. If a party to such litigation, action, arbitration or proceeding prevails in part, and loses in part, the court, arbitrator or other adjudicator presiding over such litigation, action, arbitration or proceeding will award a reimbursement of the fees, costs and expenses incurred by such party on an equitable basis.

12.12. Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original, but all of which together will constitute only one agreement. The signatures of the Parties need not appear on the same counterpart, and delivery of an executed counterpart signature page by facsimile or portable document format (.pdf) is as effective as executing and delivering this Agreement in the presence of the other Parties. This Agreement is effective upon delivery to (a) the Buyer of an executed counterpart

from the Seller, the Seller Stockholders and the Seller Representative and (b) the Seller of an executed counterpart from the Buyer Parent and the Buyer Sub.

12.13. Conflict Waiver. Each Party waives (and will cause its Affiliates to waive) any conflicts that may arise in connection with, and will not challenge (and will cause its Affiliates not to challenge), claims of attorney-client privilege, attorney work product, or similar privilege or immunity with respect to: (a) the representation by Lathrop & Gage LLP of the Seller prior to or on the Closing Date in connection with any matter arising under, or relating to, this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and (b) the representation by Lathrop & Gage LLP of the Seller Stockholders and the Seller Representative prior to, on or following the Closing Date in connection with any matter arising under, or relating to, this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including in connection with any dispute between the Buyer with the Seller, any Seller Stockholder, the Seller Representative or any of their Affiliates following the Closing Date).

12.14. Invalid Provisions. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under any present or future Laws, (a) the provision will be fully severable, (b) this Agreement will be construed and enforced as if the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part of this Agreement, (c) the remaining provisions of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect and will not be affected by the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision or by its severance from this Agreement, and (d) in lieu of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision, there will be added automatically as a part of this Agreement a legal, valid and enforceable provision as similar in terms to the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible.

12.15. Press Releases and Public Announcements. The initial press release regarding the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will be a joint press release and thereafter the Seller will consult with the Buyer, and the Buyer will consult with the Seller, prior to issuing any press releases or otherwise making public announcements with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except as may be required by applicable Law, including any legal requirement or rules of any national securities exchange to which the Buyer is subject (provided that, to the extent legally permitted, the Buyer will give the Seller a reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon any such releases or announcements). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Buyer will be permitted to make any required filings with any Governmental Authority (including any national securities exchange) with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, provided that, to the extent legally permitted, the Buyer will give the Seller a reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon any such filings.

12.16. Bulk Sales. Each Party agrees to waive compliance with Article 6 of the Uniform Commercial Code as adopted in each of the jurisdictions in which any of the Transferred Assets are located to the extent that such Article 6 is applicable to the transactions contemplated hereby.

12.17. Post-Closing Cooperation.

(a) At any time or from time to time after the Closing, at the Buyer’s request and without further consideration, the Seller shall execute and deliver to the Buyer such other instruments of sale, transfer, conveyance, assignment and confirmation, provide such materials and information and take such other actions as the Buyer may reasonably deem necessary or desirable in order to transfer, convey and assign to the Buyer Sub, and to confirm the Buyer Sub’s title to, all of the Transferred Assets, and, to the full extent permitted by Law, to put the Buyer Sub in actual possession and operating control of the Transferred Assets and to assist the Buyer in exercising all rights with respect thereto.

(b) Upon the occurrence of the Closing and effective as of the Effective Time, the Seller hereby constitutes and appoints the Buyer Sub the true and lawful attorney of the Seller, with full power of substitution, in the name of the Seller or the Buyer Sub, but on behalf of and for the benefit of the Buyer: (i) to demand and receive from time to time any and all of the Transferred Assets and to make endorsements and give receipts and releases for and in respect of the same and any part thereof; (ii) to institute, prosecute, compromise and settle any and all proceedings that the Buyer may deem proper in order to collect, assert or enforce any claim, right or title of any kind in or to the Transferred Assets; and (iii) to do all such acts and things in relation to the matters set forth in the preceding clauses (i) through (ii) as the Buyer shall deem desirable. The Seller hereby acknowledges that the appointment hereby made and the powers hereby granted are coupled with an interest and are not and shall not be revocable by it in any manner or for any reason.

(c) Following the Closing, and subject to applicable Law, privileges (including the attorney-client privilege) and contractual confidentiality obligations, the Buyer Sub will afford the Seller and the Seller Stockholders and their respective counsel and accountants, and the Seller and the Seller Stockholders and their respective counsel and accountants will afford the Buyer Sub, during normal business hours and upon reasonable notice, reasonable access to the books, records and other data relating to the business formerly conducted by the Seller in its possession with respect to periods prior to the Closing and the right to make copies and extracts therefrom and to access a reasonable amount of the time and attention of individual employees of the Buyer Sub after the Closing (so long as such access does not unreasonably interfere with performance of their duties for the Buyer) with respect to subject matters they are familiar with, to the extent that such access may be reasonably required by the requesting Party in connection with (i) the preparation of Tax Returns, (ii) the determination or enforcement of rights and obligations under this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements, (iii) compliance with the requirements of any Governmental Authority, or (iv) in connection with any actual or threatened proceeding. Further, the Buyer Sub agrees for a period extending six (6) years after the Closing Date not to destroy or otherwise dispose of any books, records and other data included in the Transferred Assets unless the Buyer Sub shall first offer in writing to surrender such books, records and other data to the Seller and the Seller Stockholders and such other Parties shall not agree in writing to take possession thereof during the ten (10) Business Day period after such offer is made. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this paragraph, if the Parties are in an adversarial relationship in litigation or arbitration, the furnishing of information, documents or records in accordance with this paragraph shall be subject to applicable rules relating to discovery.
