(4) The “Final Statement” shall be (i) the Closing Date Statement in the event that the Buyer accepts the Closing Date Statement or does not deliver a notice of dispute in the thirty (30) day period specified in § 2.6(b)(2) or (ii) the Closing Date Statement, as modified by resolution of any disputes by the Buyer and the Sellers or by the Independent Accounting Firm.

(2) The amount referred to in § 2.6(c)(1) shall be paid by the paying party under § 2.6(c)(1) by wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account designated by the other, together with, if not paid within the time period referred to in subsection (1) above, interest on such payment amount at the rate of 10% per annum from the due date thereof until the date such payment is paid.

(d) The Buyer and the Seller agree to the allocation of the Purchase Price among the Acquired Assets as set forth in Schedule 2.6(d) (the “Allocation”). If the Purchase Price is adjusted or increased pursuant to § 2.6(c) or if an indemnification payment is made pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, then Buyer shall adjust the Allocation to reflect such adjustment or payment in accordance with the nature of each such adjustment or payment and in a manner consistent with Code Section 1060 and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, and shall deliver the revised Allocation to Seller. Any adjustment(s) to the Allocation shall be final unless Sellers object in writing within 30 days of the delivery of the notification of any adjustment(s) to the Allocation.

7. Post Closing Covenants.

7.1 Noncompetition.

(a) The Seller agrees that, in consideration of the purchase by the Buyer hereunder, neither Seller nor any Affiliate of Seller shall:

(1) on or prior to the date that is five (5) years after the Closing Date anywhere in North America (which includes, without limitation, the northern continent of the Western Hemisphere, extending northward from the Colombia-Panama border and including Central America, Mexico, the islands of the Caribbean Sea, the United States, Canada, the Arctic Archipelago, and Greenland) or Europe (the “Restricted Territory”), engage in or authorize any other person to engage in the sale, manufacture or distribution of (i) the Products or any products reasonably similar to or competitive with the Products or (ii) any products utilizing the trademarks listed for the exclusive use of the Buyer on Schedule 7.1(a)(1); or

(2) engage in any activity that may constitute sale or solicitation of sales of the following products to the following customers, for as long as, subject to subsection 7.1 (d) hereof, the Supply Agreement is in effect and has not been terminated pursuant to its own terms:

(i)

the Glit products and the trademarks listed on Schedule 7.1(a)(2)(i)(A), which products and any other products used for the same purpose and competitive with such products Buyer shall have exclusive right to sell to the customers and prospective customers of the Business in the Restricted Territory whose predominant business is to supply the food service industry, including, without limitation, the customers listed on Schedule 7.1(a)(2)(i)(B) (as such list may be amended from time to time upon mutual agreement of the Parties); provided, that, the provisions of this § 7.1(a)(2)(i) shall at no time apply to the customers of the Sellers listed on Schedule 7.1(a)(2)(i)(C); provided further that for avoidance of doubt nothing contained herein shall authorize Seller to utilize in connection with its sales of Glit products any of the trademarks assigned to Buyer under this Agreement or any of the trademarks listed for the exclusive use of the Buyer on Schedule 7.1(a)(1); provided further, that since the Parties acknowledge that various buying locations of the Bunzl and Eastern Bag customers listed on Schedule 7.1(a)(2)(i)(C) that are currently purchasing Products from the Business have traditionally purchased Glit products from the Business in addition to other operating divisions of the Seller, the Seller agrees that, for so long as the Supply Agreement is in effect and has not been terminated pursuant to its own terms, the Seller shall not solicit sales of Glit products from the buying locations of such customers for the Glit products traditionally sold by the Business to such buying locations of such customers; or

-37-

(ii)

the Wilen products listed on Schedule 7.1(a)(2)(ii)(A) and any other products of the Seller used for the same purpose and competitive with such products (the “Wilen Products”), supplied to the Buyer as a private label brand to be sold by the Buyer under the Buyer’s own brand or as a private label brand, which products Buyer shall have exclusive right to sell to the customers of the Business listed on Schedule 7.1(a)(2)(ii)(B). For avoidance of doubt, nothing contained herein shall authorize Seller to utilize in connection with its sales of Wilen products any of the trademarks assigned to Buyer or any of the trademarks listed for the exclusive use of the Buyer on Schedule 7.1(a)(1);

(b) All of the provisions of § 7.1(a) shall be binding upon any acquirer or successor of Seller (whether by merger, consolidation, sale, exchange or conveyance, in each case, a “Sale”) (any such acquirer or successor, together with its Affiliates, other than the Seller, the “Seller’s Successor”); provided, however, that the limitations set forth in § 7.1(a) shall not apply (to the extent the same have not otherwise terminated pursuant to their own terms) to any business unit of Seller’s Successor to the extent that (i) no person employed by the Seller as of or at any time within twelve (12) months prior to the Closing Date is directly involved in the conduct of the business of such business unit, (ii) no intellectual property owned or licensed under any exclusive license, no Confidential Information relating primarily to the Business known and no production facilities operated or utilized, by the Seller as of the Closing Date is utilized in the conduct of the business of such business unit, (iii) Seller’s Successor, any business unit of Seller’s Successor, or any business unit acquired by Seller’s Successor in a subsequent bona fide Sale is already engaged as of the date of such acquisition or succession in the business otherwise restricted by §7.1(a)(1)(i) on the Closing Date and (iv) the Seller’s Successor does not engage in the sale of products utilizing trademarks sold to or assigned or licensed for the exclusive use of Buyer. It shall be an express affirmative obligation of Seller to advise any Seller’s Successor of the full and complete terms and conditions of this § 7.1 and Buyer shall be notified of such Sale.

-38-

(c) Seller acknowledges that Buyer would be substantially and particularly harmed in the event of any breach of the provisions contained in this § 7.1 (a) in the case of a Sale of Seller or Seller’s Successor (as the case may be) to any of the parties listed on Schedule 7.1(b)(1). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the case of a Sale of Seller or Seller’s Successor (as the case may be) to any of the parties listed on Schedule 7.1(b)(1), to the fullest extent permitted in accordance with applicable law, Seller on behalf of each of such parties hereby agrees that Buyer shall be entitled to liquidated damages (and not as a penalty) in the amount of $10.0 million on account of any breach of the terms of § 7.1(a) by any the parties listed on Schedule 7.1(b)(1) during the five (5) year period following the Closing Date and $2.5 million on account of any breach by such parties at any time thereafter (to the extent such covenants continue thereafter pursuant to the terms thereof set forth above).

(d) Each Seller acknowledges that each of the covenants set forth in §§7.1 (a)(1), 7.1 (a)(2)(i) and 7.1(a)(2)(ii) are separate and independent covenants of the Seller. For avoidance of doubt, each Seller’s covenants set forth in § 7.1 (a)(1) shall continue notwithstanding any termination of the Supply Agreement for any reason. Seller’s covenants set forth in § 7.1(a)(2)(i), only, shall terminate if the Buyer commits a “Buyer’s Glit Breach” (as such term is defined in the Supply Agreement) and, for avoidance of doubt, any such termination of the covenants set forth in § 7.1(a)(2)(i) on account of a “Buyer’s Glit Breach” shall in and of itself shall have no affect on the continued application of the Wilen Product covenants set forth in § 7.1(a)(2)(ii). Similarly, Seller’s covenants set forth in § 7.1(a)(2)(ii), only, shall terminate if the Buyer commits a “Buyer’s Wilen Breach” (as such term is defined in the Supply Agreement) and, for avoidance of doubt, any such termination of the covenants set forth in § 7.1(a)(2)(ii) on account of a “Buyer’s Wilen Breach” shall in and of itself shall have no affect on the continued application of the Glit Product covenants set forth in § 7.1(a)(2)(i). In the event the Supply Agreement is terminated on account of a “Seller Breach” (as such term is defined in the Supply Agreement), the provisions of §§ 7.1(a)(2)(i) and 7.1(a)(2)(ii), as the case may be, shall continue for the longer of (i) five (5) years following the Closing Date or (ii) two (2) years following the termination of such Supply Agreement on account of such Seller Breach.

(e) Each Seller acknowledges that the foregoing restrictive covenants are necessary to preserve the value of the Acquired Assets being purchased hereunder, are essential elements of this Agreement and the Transaction Documents and are reasonable, and each Seller agrees that it has received fair and adequate consideration for making such restrictive covenants. Each Seller agrees that if any of the provisions of this § 7.1 are or become unenforceable, the remainder of this § 7.1 shall nevertheless remain binding to the fullest extent possible, taking into consideration the purposes hereof. The Parties agree and acknowledge that the breach of this § 7.1 will cause irreparable damage to the Buyer and upon breach of any provision of this § 7.1, the Buyer shall be entitled to injunctive relief, specific performance or other equitable relief, provided, however, that the foregoing remedies shall in no way limit any other remedies which Buyer may have (including, without limitation, the right to seek monetary damages), and in any event, each Seller, jointly and severally, shall be liable for and pay any and all reasonable expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by the Buyer in successfully enforcing the terms of this § 7.1.

-39-

(f) The provisions set forth in § 7.1(a) of this Agreement shall not apply to Kohlberg & Company, L.L.C. or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates (including funds advised by it) controlling it, controlled by it or under common control with it other than the Sellers (collectively “Kohlberg”) unless and to the extent (i) any person employed by the Seller as of or at any time within twelve (12) months prior to the Closing Date is directly involved in the conduct of the business of the business unit to which such provisions could apply, or (ii) any intellectual property owned or licensed under any exclusive license, any Confidential Information relating primarily to the Business known or any production facilities operated or utilized , by the Seller as of the Closing Date is utilized in the conduct of the business unit to which such provisions could apply.

(g) The provisions of §§ 7.1 (a) and (b) shall not be applicable to Kohlberg after the third anniversary of the date on which Kohlberg ceases to own any equity interests in the Seller. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing contained herein shall authorize Kohlberg, its successors or assigns to utilize at any time any of the trademarks assigned to Buyer under this Agreement or any of the trademarks listed for the exclusive use of the Buyer on Schedule 7.1(a)(1).

7.2 Access to Records. For a period of three (3) years after the Closing Date, the Seller shall provide the Buyer reasonable access to records that are related to the Business but are Excluded Assets, during normal business hours and on at least three days’ prior written notice, for any reasonable business purpose specified by the Buyer in such notice; provided, however that the Seller shall have the ability to maintain and discard such records in accordance with the past practice and in the Ordinary Course of Business.

7.3 Payment Received. In the event that the Seller receives any payment on any of the Acquired Assets or other amounts owing to the Seller but allocated to the Buyer pursuant to this Agreement, the Seller agrees to forward such payments in good faith as promptly as practicable to the Buyer.

8. Indemnification.

8.1 Survival of Representations and Warranties. Except for the representations and warranties contained in §§ 3.1, 3.2, and 3.6(a) (collectively, the “Special Representations”), which shall survive the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement without limitation, and the representations and warranties contained in §§ 3.9 and 3.14, which shall survive until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, all representations and warranties contained in this Agreement shall survive the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement for a period from the Closing Date to the Escrow Release Date.

-40-

8.2 Indemnity by the Sellers. Subject to the limits set forth in § 8.6, the Sellers, jointly and severally, agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Buyer and its Affiliates, and each of their respective directors, officers, shareholders, owners, agents and employees and each such Person’s successors and assigns (collectively, the “Buyer Indemnified Parties”) from or against, for and in respect of, any and all damages, losses, obligations, Liabilities, demands, judgments, injuries, fines, penalties, claims, actions or causes of action, costs, fees, and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’, experts’ and consultants’ fees and disbursements in connection with investigating, defending or settling any action or threatened action), and amounts paid in settlement ) (collectively, “Losses”) suffered, sustained, incurred or required to be paid by any Buyer Indemnified Party arising out of, based upon, in connection with or as a result of:

(b) the non-fulfillment, non-performance or other breach of any covenant or agreement to be performed by either Seller pursuant to this Agreement or any Transaction Document;

(d) any arrangements or agreements made or alleged to have been made by either Seller with any broker, finder or other agent in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

The Buyer shall provide the Sellers written notice for any claim made in respect of the indemnification provided in this § 8.2, whether or not arising out of a claim by a third party and the Sellers shall not be liable for such Loss to the extent arising out of the Buyer’s failure to provide notice.

8.3 Indemnity by the Buyer. The Buyer hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Sellers, their subsidiaries and Affiliates and each of their respective directors, officers, shareholders, owners, agents, and employees and each such person’s successors and assigns (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) against and in respect of all liabilities, losses, fines, penalties, damages, expenses, fees, costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements in connection with investigating, defending or settling any action or threatened action), and amounts paid in settlement that arise out of or result from:

8.4 Matters Involving Third Parties.

(a) If any third party shall notify either Party (the “Indemnified Party”) with respect to any matter (a “Third Party Claim”) that may give rise to a claim for indemnification against the other Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) under this § 8, then the Indemnified Party shall as promptly as practicable notify the Indemnifying Party thereof in writing; provided, however, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in notifying the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligation hereunder unless (and then solely to the extent) the Indemnifying Party thereby is prejudiced.

(b) The Indemnifying Party will have the right to defend the Indemnified Party against the Third Party Claim with counsel of its choice reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party so long as (i) the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party in writing within twenty (20) days after the Indemnified Party has given notice of the Third Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party will indemnify the Indemnified Party in accordance with this § 8 in connection with such Third Party Claim, (ii) the Indemnifying Party conducts the defense of the Third Party Claim actively and diligently and (iii) the Indemnifying Party pays the fees and disbursements of such counsel with regards thereto (which fees and disbursements shall, however, be included in the definition of Losses for purposes of this § 8).

8.5 Time for Claims. Except with respect to breaches of the Special Representations and facts or circumstances which constitute fraud by a Seller, for which no time limit applies, no claim may be made or suit instituted seeking indemnification pursuant to § 8.2(a) for any inaccuracy in any representation or warranty unless a written notice describing such inaccuracy in reasonable detail in light of the circumstances then known to the Party seeking indemnification is provided to the indemnifying Party at any time prior to the Escrow Release Date. Claims for indemnification pursuant to any other provision of § 8.2 are not subject to the limitations set forth in this § 8.5.

8.6 Limitation on Amount - Sellers.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the Threshold and the Cap shall not apply to Losses from breaches of the Special Representations, and (ii) the Threshold and the Cap shall not apply to Losses resulting from any facts or circumstances which constitute fraud by either Seller.

8.7 Exclusive Remedy. Except with respect to facts or circumstances which constitute fraud by a Seller, Buyer agrees that the indemnification provided in § 8.2 is the exclusive remedy for a breach by Seller of any representation or warranty contained in §3 of this Agreement.

8.8 Tax Treatment of Indemnity Payments. The Seller and the Buyer agree to treat any indemnity payments made pursuant to §§ 8.2 and 8.3 as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for all Tax purposes.

8.9 Escrow, Offset Provisions.
