SECTION 1.03.Assignment of Contracts.

(a) At or prior to the Closing Date, the Seller shall, at its sole cost and expense, (i) (unless waived or modified by the FTC with respect to any Acquired Contract or Lease) obtain the Required Consents, which are listed onSchedule 1.03(a)(i) hereto, and (ii) use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all necessary consents, approvals and authorizations to the assignment or transfer to the Purchaser of all of the Acquired Contracts that are not Required Consents (the “Non-Required Consents”), which are listed onSchedule 1.03(a)(ii) hereto. The Purchaser shall reasonably cooperate with the Seller in obtaining the Required Consents and Non-Required Consents (it being understood that the Purchaser shall not be required to spend money, commence any litigation or offer or grant any accommodation (contractual, financial or otherwise) to any third party in connection with cooperating to obtain the Required Consents and the Non-Required Consents). To the extent that any Required Consent is not obtained by the Seller at or prior to the Closing (in compliance with a waiver or modification by the FTC consistent withSection 1.03(a)(i)), the Seller shall, at its sole cost and expense, obtain (and shall be responsible for the payment of any necessary costs and expenses which may be necessary to satisfy this covenant) each such Required Consent as soon as practicable after the Closing Date, but in any event, not later than the first anniversary of the Closing Date. To the extent that any Non-Required Consent is not obtained by the Seller at or prior to the Closing, the Seller shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain each such Non-Required Consent following the Closing, it being understood that neither the Seller nor any of its Affiliates shall be required to expend money, commence any litigation or offer or grant any accommodation (contractual, financial or otherwise) to any third party to obtain any such Non-Required Consent. The Seller and its Affiliates shall not be permitted to amend or modify any material terms of any Acquired Contracts in order to obtain a Required Consent or Non-Required Consent without the prior written consent of the Purchaser (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign any Contract, Lease, Permit, or right or any benefit arising thereunder or resulting therefrom if an attempted assignment or transfer thereof, without the consent of any other Person, would constitute a breach thereof, or be in violation of any applicable Law, rule or regulation unless and until such consent has been obtained. If any Required Consents or Non-Required Consents are not obtained prior to Closing, or if an attempted assignment thereof would result in a breach or violation of, or default under, the terms of the related Acquired Contract, or if an attempted transfer or assignment thereof would be ineffective or would adversely affect the rights of the Purchaser so that the Purchaser would not in fact receive all such rights following the

-8-

Closing, the parties shall cooperate to implement a mutually agreeable arrangement under which the Purchaser would obtain the benefits and assume the obligations and bear the economic burdens associated with such Acquired Contract in accordance with this Agreement, including through an arrangement under which the Seller would subcontract its rights and obligations in respect of such Acquired Contract to the Purchaser, and under which the Seller would enforce for the benefit of the Purchaser any and all of the rights of the Seller against a third party associated with such Acquired Contract, and the Seller would promptly pay the Purchaser all monies received by the Seller in respect of any such Acquired Contract.

(b)Shared Contracts

(i) At or prior to the Closing Date (unless waived or modified by the FTC with respect to any Shared Contract), each of the Seller and the Purchaser shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, cooperate to cause the Shared Contracts to be replaced with separate Contracts, as applicable (the “Replacement Contracts”), that provide that the Purchaser or its Affiliates receive contract rights and obligations under such Replacement Contracts that are substantially equivalent in the aggregate to those contract rights and obligations utilized by the Seller or its Affiliates under the Shared Contracts in the conduct of the Transferred Business prior to the Closing;provided that the Purchaser shall execute an assignment for any portion of a Shared Contract or establish, in the Purchaser’s name, a Replacement Contract between the Purchaser and the applicable counterparty for any such Shared Contract if the terms being offered by such counterparty are substantially equivalent in the aggregate to the current terms of such Shared Contract.

(ii) The Purchaser and the Seller shall cooperate and provide each other with reasonable assistance in effecting such separation of the Shared Contracts. If the Purchaser and the Seller are not able to effect the separation of a Shared Contract in accordance withSection 1.03(b)(i) prior to the Closing and the FTC waives or modifies the requirement to do so, then, until any such Shared Contract is separated, to the extent permissible under applicable Law and under the terms of such Shared Contract, each of the Purchaser and the Seller shall (A) assume and perform the liabilities and obligations under such Shared Contract relating to its respective business or that of its Affiliates (and shall promptly reimburse the other party for any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the other party or its Affiliates for liabilities and obligations under such Shared Contract not relating to the business of such other party or its Affiliates), allocated in accordance with thisSection 1.03(b); (B) hold in trust for the benefit of the other party, and shall promptly forward to the other party, any monies or other benefits received pursuant to such Shared Contract relating to the respective businesses of the other party (or its Affiliates); and (C) use commercially reasonable efforts to institute alternative arrangements intended to put the parties in substantially the same economic position as if such Shared Contract were separated.

-9-

(iii) All liabilities and obligations relating to a given Shared Contract shall, unless otherwise allocated pursuant to this Agreement or a Replacement Contract, be deemed to be (A) Assumed Liabilities to the extent such liabilities and obligations relate to the Transferred Business and relate to and are required to be performed during periods from and after the Closing and (B) Retained Liabilities to the extent they do not relate to the Transferred Business or they relate to the ownership or operation of the Transferred Business prior to the Closing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each party shall be solely responsible for any and all liabilities and obligations to the extent arising out of or relating to such party’s (or its Affiliates’) breach of any such Shared Contract; provided that the Purchaser’s failure to comply with or satisfy any Assumed Liabilities shall not be deemed a breach of any Shared Contract by the Seller or any of its Affiliates.

SECTION 1.04.Consideration. The sale, conveyance, assignment, transfer and delivery of the Assets by the Seller to the Purchaser shall be in partial consideration of the sale by the Purchaser of the Davenport Business to the Seller pursuant to the Davenport Agreement. No separate purchase price or consideration shall be payable by Purchaser in order to acquire the Transferred Business.

SECTION 1.05.Inventory Adjustment.

(a) As soon as practicable after the date hereof, until the Closing or earlier termination of this Agreement pursuant toArticle VII, the Seller shall provide the Purchaser access to each site that contains Acquired Inventory in order to facilitate the Purchaser’s review of the Seller’s estimate of the Inventory Value. Three (3) Business Days before the Closing Date, the Seller shall deliver to the Purchaser a good faith estimate (the “Estimate Statement”) of the Inventory Value. The Estimate Statement shall be prepared in accordance with the accounting protocol described inSchedule 1.05(a). The Seller and the Purchaser shall cooperate in good faith and endeavor to resolve any disputes regarding the calculation of the Estimate Statement;provided,however, that no party shall be entitled to delay the Closing as a result of any such dispute. If the parties agree to any changes to the Estimate Statement, the term “Estimate Statement” as used in this Agreement shall be deemed to reflect such changes. For the avoidance of doubt, if the parties are unable to agree to any changes to the Estimate Statement, the Estimate Statement shall be in the form delivered by the Seller;provided,however, that the estimate of the Inventory Value set forth on the Estimate Statement shall in no event exceed an amount equal to 110% of the highest of the values of month-end Inventory recorded in the books and records of the Seller for any of the twelve (12) months ending prior to the month in which the Closing occurs, which month-end values shall be reasonably evidenced to Purchaser.

(b) As promptly as practicable, but no later than sixty (60) calendar days after the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall cause to be prepared and delivered to the Seller a closing statement (the “Closing Statement”) presenting the Purchaser’s good faith calculation of the Inventory Value prepared in accordance with the accounting protocol described inSchedule 1.05(a). The Purchaser shall be responsible for its own costs in the preparation of the Closing Statement.

-10-

(c) If the Seller disagrees with the Closing Statement or calculation of any of the items set forth thereon pursuant toSection 1.05(b), then within thirty (30) calendar days following receipt of the Closing Statement, the Seller may deliver a written notice of disagreement to the Purchaser specifying those items or amounts in the Closing Statement as to which the Seller disagrees and the Seller’s calculation of such amounts. The Seller shall be deemed to have agreed with all other items and amounts contained in the Closing Statement and the calculation of such amounts not objected to in such notice.

(d) If a notice of disagreement shall be duly delivered pursuant toSection 1.05(c), the Purchaser and the Seller shall, during the thirty (30) calendar days following such delivery, use their commercially reasonable efforts to reach agreement on the disputed items or amounts in order to determine, as may be required, the amounts of the Inventory Value, which amount shall not be less than the amount thereof shown in the Purchaser’s calculation delivered pursuant toSection 1.05(b) nor more than the amount thereof shown in the Seller’s calculation delivered pursuant toSection 1.05(c). If the parties so resolve all disputes, the computation of the Inventory Value, as amended to the extent necessary to reflect the resolution of the dispute, shall be conclusive and binding on the parties. If during such period the Purchaser and the Seller are unable to reach an agreement, they shall promptly thereafter cause the Accounting Arbiter to review the adjustment process contained in this Agreement and the disputed items or amounts for the purpose of calculating the Inventory Value. In making such calculation, the Accounting Arbiter shall consider only those items or amounts in the Closing Statement and the Seller’s notice described inSection 1.05(c) and the actual quantities of the Acquired Inventory, if necessary. The Accounting Arbiter shall deliver to the Purchaser and the Seller, as promptly as practicable (but in any case no later than thirty (30) days from the date of engagement of the Accounting Arbiter), a report setting forth such calculation. Such report shall be final and binding upon the Purchaser and the Seller with no right to appeal the decision of the Accounting Arbiter absent manifest error. The fees and expenses of the Accounting Arbiter shall be borne by the Seller and the Purchaser in inverse proportion to the dollar amount of the items in dispute as submitted to the Accounting Arbiter as to which such party prevails in the arbitration, which proportionate allocations shall also be determined by the Accounting Arbiter at the time it renders its determination on the merits of the matters in dispute. The Accounting Arbiter may not award damages, interest or penalties to any party with respect to any matter.

(e) The Purchaser and the Seller shall, and shall cause their respective representatives to, cooperate and assist in the preparation of the Estimate Statement, the Closing Statement and the calculation of the Inventory Value and in the conduct of the review referred to in thisSection 1.05, including the making available to the extent necessary of books, records, work papers and personnel and providing the Seller reasonable access to the Terminal containing Acquired Inventory to facilitate its review of the Closing Statement and the Inventory Value.

(f) If the Final Bettendorf Inventory (as defined below) is less than the Inventory Target, then the Final Purchase Price (as defined in the Davenport Agreement) shall be increased by the amount of the shortfall in accordance withSection 1.06(g) of the Davenport Agreement. If the Final Bettendorf Inventory is more than the Inventory Target, then the Final Purchase Price (as defined in the Davenport Agreement) shall be reduced by the amount of the excess in accordance withSection 1.06(g) of the Davenport Agreement. “Final Bettendorf Inventory” means the Inventory Value (i) (A) as shown in the Closing Statement prepared pursuant toSection 1.05(b) if no notice of disagreement with respect thereto is duly delivered pursuant toSection 1.05(c) or (B) if such a notice of disagreement is delivered, (1) as agreed to by the Purchaser and the Seller pursuant toSection 1.05(d) or (2) in the absence of such an agreement, as shown in the Accounting Arbiter’s calculation delivered pursuant toSection 1.05(d).

SECTION 1.06.Asset Allocation. The parties agree thatSection 1.07 of the Davenport Agreement shall govern the parties’ determination of the purchase price of the Assets and the allocation of such purchase price among the Assets for U.S. federal, state and local tax purposes.

-37-

described in subclause (i) of thisSection 5.06(c): (A) for property Taxes,ad valorem Taxes, and other Taxes imposed on a periodic basis, the portion of any such Tax that is attributable to the portion of the period ending on the Closing Date shall be considered to equal the amount of such Taxes for such taxable period, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the portion of such taxable period that ends on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire taxable period (provided; however; that if the Tax is based on a valuation that pertains to a Tax period other than that in which the Closing Date occurs, such proration shall be recalculated at such time as actual Tax bills for such period are available and the parties shall cooperate with each other in all respects in connection with such recalculation and pay any sums due in consequence thereof to the party entitled to recover the same); and (B) for Taxes based upon or measured by capital (including net worth or long-term debt) or intangibles, any amount thereof required to be allocated under thisSection 5.06(c) shall be computed by reference to the level of such items on the Closing Date. The Purchaser shall cause to be prepared and duly filed all Tax Returns relating to Straddle Periods other than those relating to Taxes imposed on and payable by the Seller (or any consolidated, combined or unitary group of which the Seller is a member) (the “Straddle Period Returns”).

For each material Straddle Period Return, the Purchaser shall deliver to the Seller, for its review and comment no less than ten (10) days prior to the applicable filing deadline (taking into account applicable extensions), a copy of the draft return (with copies of any relevant schedules, work papers and other documentation then available). At least five (5) days prior to the due date for the filing of such return (including extensions), the Seller shall notify the Purchaser in writing of any objections to any items set forth on such returns and the parties shall address these objections in accordance withSection 5.06(i).

(d) Any refunds or credits in lieu of refunds with respect to Taxes relating to the Assets or the Transferred Business shall belong to the party that is liable, under the terms of thisSection 5.06, for the Taxes payable with respect to the Tax period to which such refunds or credits relate. The Seller and the Purchaser shall equitably apportion any refund or credit in lieu of a refund with respect to Taxes for any Straddle Period in a manner consistent with the principles set forth inSection 5.06(c). The Purchaser shall forward to the Seller or reimburse the Seller for any such refunds or credits belonging to the Seller within thirty (30) Business Days from receipt thereof by the Purchaser (provided that, for such purpose, a credit shall be deemed received on the due date for the Taxes it is actually applied against). The Seller shall forward to the Purchaser or reimburse the Purchaser for any refunds or credits belonging to the Purchaser within thirty (30) Business Days from receipt thereof by the Seller (provided that, for such purpose, a credit shall be deemed received on the due date for the Taxes it is actually applied against).

-38-

(e) The Seller and the Purchaser shall cooperate to obtain any reasonably available exemption with respect to transfer Taxes, and to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any Taxing Authority or any other Person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any transfer Tax.

(f) Without the review and consent of the Seller (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), neither the Purchaser nor any of its Affiliates shall file, or make a formal or informal claim for a refund with respect to, any amended Tax Returns relating to the Transferred Business or the Assets for any taxable years or periods ending on or before the Closing Date or for a Straddle Period.

(g) On and after the Closing Date, the Seller and the Purchaser shall:

(ii) make available to the requesting party (at the expense of the requesting party), as reasonably requested and available, personnel responsible for preparing or maintaining information, records and documents in connection with Taxes as well as any related litigation; and

(iii) preserve all such information, records, and documents until the expiration of any applicable statutes of limitation or extensions thereof and as otherwise required by Law.

(h)Tax Claims.

(i) In case of any claim, audit, investigation, court proceeding or other dispute with respect to any Tax matter relating to the Transferred Business or the Assets (a “Tax Claim”) which, if successful, might result in an indemnity payment under Article VIII, the indemnified party shall notify the indemnifying party of such claim no later than ten (10) Business Days after written notice of such Tax Claim is received by the indemnified party;provided,however, that the failure to provide timely notice shall not affect the indemnified party’s right to indemnification hereunder except to the extent that the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced thereby.

(ii) With respect to any Tax Claim relating to (A) Taxes attributable to the Excluded Assets for any and all periods or (B) any other Taxes for which the Seller is solely liable, the Seller shall control any resulting proceedings and determine whether and when to settle any such claim, assessment, or dispute.

-39-

(iii) The Purchaser shall control all proceedings in connection with (A) any Tax Claim relating to Taxes for any Straddle Period and (B) any Tax Claim which may result in a liability both for the Seller and the Purchaser. The Seller may participate (at its expense) in any such proceeding. The Purchaser shall not settle or compromise any such Tax Claim without the prior written consent of the Seller, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(iv) Except as otherwise provided in thisSection 5.06, the Purchaser shall control all proceedings with respect to Tax Claims attributable to the Transferred Business and the Assets.

(v) ThisSection 5.06 (and notSection 8.04(a) and(b)) shall govern with respect to any Tax Claim.

(i) If the Seller and the Purchaser disagree as to the amount of Taxes for which either is liable under this Agreement, the Seller and the Purchaser shall promptly consult each other in an effort to resolve such dispute. If any such dispute cannot be resolved within fifteen (15) days after the initial date of consultation, then each party shall deliver simultaneously to the Accounting Arbiter such work papers and other reports and information relating to the disputed matter(s) as the Accounting Arbiter may request and shall be afforded the opportunity to discuss the disputed matter(s) with the Accounting Arbiter. The Accounting Arbiter shall have thirty (30) days to carry out its review and prepare a written statement of its determination regarding the disputed matter(s) (including a statement regarding the Accounting Arbiter’s determination of the prevailing party in any such disputed matter that provides the Accounting Arbiter’s reasons for and an explanation of such determination), which determination shall be final and binding upon the parties. Any fees and expenses of the Accounting Arbiter incurred in resolving the disputed matter(s) shall be borne equally by the parties;provided,however, that a party shall bear all of the costs of such resolution if the Accounting Arbiter determines that such party’s position was in bad faith or without merit.

(j) The Seller and the Purchaser agree to treat the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by the Davenport Agreement in part, to the extent consistent with applicable Law, as an exchange described in Section 1031 of the Code and the Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder (and analogous provisions of state and local Law) and shall provide each other reasonable cooperation in reporting such transactions on a basis consistent therewith.

SECTION 5.07.Proration of Certain Amounts and Utilities.

(a) In addition to the allocation and proration of Taxes provided for inSection 5.06, the parties agree to prorate as of the Effective Time all operating expenses payable by the owner of the Assets, rent paid pursuant to the Lease for the Leased Real Property and such other items as set forth onSchedule 5.07(a), as such Schedule may be updated following the date hereof (collectively, the “Proration Items”).

-40-

and Proration Items attributable to the period on and after the Effective Time will be for the account of the Purchaser and each party will be responsible for the payment of its prorated share of the Proration Items. If the actual amounts of the Proration Items are not known as of the Effective Time, the prorations will be made at the Closing on the basis of the best evidence then available; thereafter, when the actual amount of any such Proration Item is received (and in no event later than thirty (30) days after the receipt of such amount), a re-proration will be made on the basis of the actual amount and the parties shall reimburse each other accordingly.

(b) The Seller shall be responsible for all utilities used in the conduct of the Transferred Business prior to the Effective Time. The Purchaser shall be responsible for all utilities used in the conduct of the Transferred Business on and after the Effective Time. Promptly upon receipt of any utility bill that includes charges for periods prior to the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall forward a copy of such utility bill to the Seller and the Seller shall promptly pay to the Purchaser its pro rata share of such bill in accordance with thisSection 5.07(b), and the Purchaser shall pay such utility bill as and when due. Promptly after the Closing (but in any event, no later than thirty (30) days thereafter), the Purchaser shall notify all relevant utilities that the name of the Purchaser (or the name of an Affiliate of the Purchaser designated by it) should replace the name of the Seller on all utility bills and that the Purchaser or such designee will be responsible for payment of all utility bills going forward. Final readings and final billings for utilities will be made, if possible, as of the Effective Time, in which event no proration will be made at the Closing with respect to utility bills.

SECTION 5.08.Certain Employee Matters.

(a) Prior to the Closing Date, the Seller shall update the list of Employees disclosed onSchedule 5.08(a) hereto to reflect new hires and terminations of employment between the date hereof and the fifth (5^th) Business Day prior to the Closing Date.

(b) The Purchaser shall (on behalf of itself or any Affiliate thereof (any such Affiliate, a “Purchaser Benefit Party”)) make offers of employment in writing to all Employees listed onSchedule 5.08(b) for employment with the Purchaser or a Purchaser Benefit Party commencing on the applicable Employee Transfer Date and otherwise on the terms and conditions set forth in thisSection 5.08, and each Employee shall have at least five (5) Business Days from his or her receipt of an offer from the Purchaser to accept the offer. Neither the Seller nor any of its Affiliates (each a “Seller Benefit Party”) shall induce or otherwise attempt to influence any such Employee to not accept his or her offer of employment from the Purchaser. Each Employee who accepts the Purchaser’s offer of employment shall be hired by the applicable Purchaser Benefit Party effective as of the applicable Employee Transfer Date, it being understood that such Employee will thereafter become an employee of such Purchaser Benefit Party (such Employees to collectively be referred to as the “Transferred Employees”). The parties hereto and their Affiliates will cooperate in good faith to effect the hiring of Employees described in thisSection 5.08(b). In respect of any Employee who is (i) absent from

-41-

work due to short orlong-term disability or an authorized leave of absence and (ii) returns to work within six (6) months following the Closing Date or such later period as the Employee has the right to return to work under applicable Law (any such Employee, a “Leave Employee”), the Purchaser’s offer of employment to the Leave Employee shall provide for employment effective as of the date on which such Leave Employee returns to work and, if such Leave Employee accepts the Purchaser’s offer of employment and commences employment with the Purchaser, such Leave Employee shall be considered a Transferred Employee under this Agreement effective as of his or her Employee Transfer Date. For purposes of this Agreement, the “Employee Transfer Date” shall be (A) for Employees other than the Leave Employees, the Effective Time, and (B) for Leave Employees, 12:01 a.m. local time on the date on which such Leave Employee’s period of absence expires and such Leave Employee returns to active employment. If any Employee requires a work permit or employment pass for his or her employment with the Purchaser or any of the Purchaser Benefit Parties, the Purchaser shall, and shall cause the Purchaser Benefit Parties to, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause any such permit or pass to be obtained and in effect prior to the Employee Transfer Date, and the Seller shall, and shall cause the Seller Benefit Parties to, take all reasonably necessary or appropriate action at the Purchaser’s expense, as reasonably requested by the Purchaser, to assist in obtaining any such permit or pass prior to the Employee Transfer Date.

(c) The Purchaser’s offers of employment to each Employee shall provide for employment on the following terms and conditions, which terms and conditions the Purchaser shall maintain or cause the applicable Purchaser Benefit Party to maintain for each Transferred Employee for at least twelve (12) months following the Closing Date (or such shorter period as a Transferred Employee is employed by the Purchaser following the Closing Date): (i) employment in a comparable position to the position such Employee held with the Seller or its Affiliates immediately prior to the Closing Date, (ii) overall compensation (including base salary or base rate of pay and annual bonus opportunity) and employee benefits that are substantially equivalent in the aggregate to the compensation and benefits (including severance benefits) provided by the Seller and its Affiliates immediately prior to the Closing Date;provided,however, that the Purchaser shall provide (A) each Transferred Employee with base salary or base rate of pay and annual bonus opportunity that are each no less favorable than those in effect for such Transferred Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date and (B) severance payments and severance benefits that are no less favorable than the severance payments and severance benefits provided to the Transferred Employee by the Seller and its Affiliates immediately prior to the Closing Date as disclosed onSchedule 5.08(c); and (iii) no requirement that an Employee report to a principal place of employment that would require a commute that is more than twenty five (25) miles longer than the Employee’s current commute (except with such Employee’s consent).

(d) The Seller and the Purchaser intend that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement should not constitute a separation, termination or severance of employment of any Employee prior to or upon the occurrence of the Employee Transfer Date, including for purposes of any Benefit Plan that provides for separation, termination

-42-

or severance benefits, and that such Employees will have continuous and uninterrupted employment immediately before and immediately after the Employee Transfer Date, and the Seller and the Purchaser shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, comply with any requirements under applicable Law to ensure the same (provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, if any Benefit Plan or other employee benefit plan, program or arrangement of the Seller provides for any payments in connection with any Employee’s separation from the Seller, such payments shall be the sole obligation of the Seller, unless such payment is triggered by the failure of the Purchaser to offer employment to such Employee in accordance with thisSection 5.08 and applicable Law). The Purchaser and the Purchaser Benefit Parties shall bear all of the liabilities, obligations and costs relating to, and shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Seller and its Affiliates from and against, (i) any claims made by any Employee for any statutory, contractual (to the extent made pursuant to a Benefit Plan) or other severance or other separation benefits, and any other legally mandated payment obligations (including any compensation payable during a mandatory termination notice period and any payments pursuant to a judgment of a court having jurisdiction over the parties hereto but specifically excluding any pension benefits under the Benefit Plans with respect to service prior to the Closing with the Seller and its Affiliates) and for any other claim, cost, liability or obligation (whether related to compensation, benefits or otherwise), in each case, arising out of or in connection with the failure of the Purchaser to make an offer of employment in accordance with this Agreement and applicable Law; and (ii) any claims relating to the employment or termination of employment of any Transferred Employee on or after the Closing Date (or Employee Transfer Date in the case of any Leave Employees) under any employee benefit, plan, program or arrangement of the Purchaser or its Affiliates. The Purchaser shall reimburse the Seller for all severance and other separation benefits and payments (including all Taxes (including any employer-paid portion of payroll Taxes) in respect thereof) provided to any Employee who refused to accept an offer of employment from the Purchaser made in accordance with this Agreement and, within fifteen (15) months from the Closing Date, was hired by the Purchaser. The Purchaser shall provide notice to the Seller within thirty (30) days following the date on which any such Employee is hired by the Purchaser. The Seller shall pay to each Transferred Employee, as soon as practicable following the applicable Employee Transfer Date or such shorter time as required by applicable Law if so required, a cash payment equal to such Transferred Employee’s accrued and unused vacation and paid time-off determined as of such Employee Transfer Date.

(e) With respect to the Employees, the Seller will be responsible for discharging all obligations in respect of Employees under the WARN Act and similar applicable state or local Laws for the notification of any “employment loss” within the meaning of the WARN Act and similar applicable state or local Laws which occurs on or prior to the Closing. The Purchaser will be responsible for discharging all obligations in respect of the Employees and the Transferred Employees under the WARN Act and similar applicable state or local Laws for the notification of any “employment loss” within the meaning of the WARN Act and similar applicable state or local Laws which occurs after the Closing and for any such obligations that result from any failure by the Purchaser to make offers of employment to Employees in accordance with thisSection 5.08.

-43-

(f) As soon as practicable following the Closing Date and with respect to the Benefit Plans described inSchedule 3.15(a) hereto, the Purchaser and the Purchaser Benefit Parties shall permit the Transferred Employees to roll over their account balances and outstanding loan balances, if any, thereunder into any applicable “eligible retirement plan” within the meaning of Section 402(c)(8)(B) of the Code maintained by a Purchaser Benefit Party thereof after the Closing, subject to any restrictions on loan balance transfers under such plan,provided that the Seller provides a copy of such plan’s most recent determination letter from the IRS.

(g) Following the Closing, the Purchaser shall permit the Transferred Employees, as well as dependents of such employees (collectively, with the Transferred Employees, the “Affected Participants”) to commence participation in the applicable employee benefit plans, programs or policies, if any, maintained by the Purchaser Benefit Parties (each, a “Purchaser Plan”). The Purchaser shall use reasonable best efforts to (i) waive any evidence of insurability and waiting periods with respect to participation by and coverage in connection with the participation and coverage requirements in connection with the medical, dental and vision benefits that the Affected Participants may be eligible to receive pursuant to such Purchaser Plan after the Closing; (ii) honor any deductible, co-payment and out-of-pocket maximums incurred by the Affected Participants under the health plans in which they participated immediately prior to the Closing Date during the portion of the calendar year prior to the Closing Date in satisfying any deductibles, co-payments or out-of-pocket maximums under Purchaser Plans in the same plan year in which such deductibles, co-payments or out-of-pocket maximums were incurred; and (iii) waive any preexisting condition limitations otherwise applicable to Affected Participants under any Purchaser Plan that provides health benefits in which the Transferred Employees may be eligible to participate following the Closing, other than any limitations that were in effect with respect to such Employees immediately prior to the Closing Date under the analogous Benefit Plan;provided that such obligations shall be subject to the Purchaser receiving adequate information from the Seller or the Transferred Employees to comply with such obligations. It is also understood that, except as otherwise provided herein, the Purchaser Benefit Parties reserve the right to change, modify, discontinue or terminate any or all of its own welfare benefit plans at any time following the Closing Date.

(h) Following the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall cause each Transferred Employee to receive full credit for such Employee’s service with the Seller and the Seller Benefit Parties and any of their respective predecessors for purposes of eligibility, vesting and benefit accruals, under any Purchaser Plans in which any such Transferred Employee participates to the same extent recognized by the Seller and the Seller Benefit Parties immediately prior to the Closing Date;provided,however, that such service shall not apply to any defined benefit pension plan or equity award and shall not be recognized to the extent that such recognition would result in a duplication of benefits with respect to the same period of service.

-44-

(i) The Seller Benefit Parties shall be solely responsible for offering and providing any COBRA continuation coverage required under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended, or similar state Law (“COBRA”), with respect to any Employee (whether current, former or retired) who experiences a qualifying event on or prior to the Closing without regard to whether the coverage loss occurs before, on or after the Closing, and for any Employee who does not become a Transferred Employee and who experiences a qualifying event after the Closing or who otherwise loses eligibility for coverage in connection with the transactions contemplated under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchaser Benefit Parties shall be solely responsible for offering and providing any COBRA continuation coverage required with respect to any Transferred Employee who experiences a qualifying event on or after the Closing. “Qualifying event” and “continuation coverage” are as defined in Section 4980B of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder.

(j) The parties to this Agreement agree to furnish each other with such information concerning employees and employee benefit plans, and to take such other action, in each case as is reasonably necessary and appropriate to effect the transactions contemplated by thisSection 5.08, subject to any applicable restrictions under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, as amended, and other federal and state privacy Laws and policies of the Seller. Where any required information is in the possession of third parties controlled by a Seller Benefit Party, such as insurers or trustees, the Seller Benefit Parties shall use reasonable efforts to cause those third parties to cooperate in providing any such information to the Purchaser or Purchaser Benefit Party. The parties will reasonably cooperate with respect to any communications to Employees regarding the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Purchaser will provide the Seller with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on any communications intended for the Employees (including regarding its offers of employment) that it desires to send to Employees prior to the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties acknowledge and agree that the Seller shall not provide the medical files (and, if prohibited under applicable Law, the personnel files) for any Employees to the Purchaser or any Purchaser Benefit Parties;provided, that following the Closing, the Purchaser may deliver to the Seller signed consents from any or all of the Employees actually hired by the Purchaser, authorizing the release of their medical files (and, if applicable, the personnel files), in which case the Seller shall provide the medical files (and, if applicable, the personnel files) for each such Employee.

(k) The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that all provisions contained in thisSection 5.08 with respect to employees are included for the sole benefit of the respective parties hereto and shall not create any right (i) in any other person, including any employees, former employees, any participant in any Benefit Plan or Purchaser Plan or any beneficiary thereof or (ii) to continued employment with any of the Seller Benefit Parties or Purchaser Benefit Parties, or particular benefits or coverage in any Benefit Plan or Purchaser Plan. The provisions of thisSection 5.08 shall not constitute an amendment to any Benefit Plan or Purchaser Plan.

-45-

(l) The Seller shall be, or shall cause the Seller Benefit Parties to be, responsible, either directly or through insurance policies maintained by the Seller or the Seller Benefit Parties, for all (i) medical, vision, dental and prescription drug claims for expenses incurred by any Transferred Employee or his or her dependents, (ii) claims for short-term and long-term disability income benefits incurred by any Transferred Employee, and (iii) claims for group life, travel and accident, and accidental death and dismemberment insurance benefits incurred by any Transferred Employee, in each case, prior to the applicable Employee Transfer Date.

(m) From and after the Closing Date, the Seller hereby waives anynon-competition, customer non-solicitation and similar obligations or any other restriction on the activities of any Transferred Employee that arise pursuant to any employment or other agreement between any such employee and the Seller that would otherwise prevent or restrict in any way such employee from at any time performing his or her obligations or responsibilities (as they may exist from time to time as determined by the Purchaser) to or for the Purchaser or its Affiliates.

The Purchaser shall provide notice to the Seller within thirty (30) days following the date on which any Transferred Employee (identified by the Seller in writing within a reasonable period after the Closing Date who participates in a plan covered by Section 409A of the Code as of the date of this Agreement in which distributions would be due by the Seller on separation from service) incurs a “separation from service,” as so defined, from the Purchaser or an Affiliate of Purchaser.

(p) The parties hereto agree to (i) treat the Purchaser and the Purchaser Benefit Parties as a “successor employer” and the Seller and Seller Benefit Parties as a “predecessor” within the meaning of Sections 3121(a)(1) and 3306(b)(1) of the Code with respect to Transferred Employees for purposes of taxes imposed under the United States Federal Unemployment Tax Act and the United States Federal Insurance Contributions Act, and (ii) use their reasonable best efforts to cooperate with each other to avoid the filing of more than one IRS Form W-2 with respect to each Transferred Employee for the calendar year(s) in which the applicable Closing Date occurs.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Seller shall not be required to terminate the National Contracts but the Purchaser shall have no rights or obligations thereunder.

SECTION 5.10. Confidential Information.

(a) The Seller hereby acknowledges that by reason of its ownership and operation of the Transferred Business, it has acquired confidential or proprietary information to the extent relating to the affairs, operations, assets, liabilities, personnel, results of operations and financial condition of the Transferred Business (and no other business of the Seller or its Affiliates) (“Transferred Business Confidential Information”) and that the Purchaser may be irreparably damaged as a result of a breach by the Seller of

-47-

its obligations under thisSection 5.10(a). From and after the Closing, the Seller covenants and agrees that it will not, and will not permit its Affiliates to, and that it will use reasonable efforts to cause its officers, directors, employees, representative and agents not to, use or disclose any such Transferred Business Confidential Information without the prior written consent of the Purchaser, except in the performance of the terms of the Agreement or the Ancillary Deliveries, in the enforcement of its rights under the Agreement or the Ancillary Deliveries or with the prior written consent of the Purchaser. The provisions of the prior sentence shall not apply to any portion of the Transferred Business Confidential Information that (i) is or becomes generally known by the public, other than as a result of a disclosure in breach of thisSection 5.10(a), (ii) was independently obtained from sources that are not known by the Seller to be in violation of any legal, contractual or fiduciary obligation to the Purchaser with respect thereto or otherwise prohibited by Law, contract or fiduciary duty from disclosing such information (each, a “Seller Permitted Source”), (iii) becomes available to the Seller on a non-confidential basis from a source that is a Seller Permitted Source or (iv) was or is independently developed by the Seller without use of or reference to the Transferred Business Confidential Information. If the Seller is requested or required by any Governmental Authority (other than the FTC) to disclose any of such Transferred Business Confidential Information, then the Seller will provide the Purchaser with prompt written notice of such request or requirement. The Seller shall reasonably cooperate with the Purchaser, at the Purchaser’s expense, in attempting to obtain any reasonable protective relief that the Purchaser chooses to promptly seek;provided, however, that the Seller shall not be obligated to undertake any Legal Proceeding. If, after the Purchaser has had a reasonable opportunity to seek such relief, the Purchaser fails to obtain such relief, or if the Seller is compelled by Law to disclose any Transferred Business Confidential Information, then the Seller may disclose only the portion of such Transferred Business Confidential Information which its legal counsel advises it is compelled to disclose.

(b) The Purchaser hereby acknowledges that it may acquire, pursuant to the rights granted inSection 5.02 or otherwise in connection with the transactions and arrangements contemplated by this Agreement, confidential or proprietary information to the extent relating to the affairs, operations, assets, liabilities, personnel, results of operations and financial condition of the Seller or its Affiliates other than in respect of the Transferred Business (such information, excluding all Transferred Business Confidential Information, is referred to as the “Seller Confidential Information”) and that the Seller may be irreparably damaged as a result of a breach by the Purchaser of its obligations under thisSection 5.10(b). From and after the Closing, the Purchaser covenants and agrees that it will not, and will not permit its Affiliates to, and that it will use reasonable efforts to cause its officers, directors, employees, representative and agents not to, use or disclose any such Seller Confidential Information without the prior written consent of the Seller, except in the performance of the terms of this Agreement or the Ancillary Deliveries, in the enforcement of its rights under this Agreement or the Ancillary Deliveries or with the prior written consent of the Seller. The provisions of the prior sentence shall not apply to any portion of the Seller Confidential Information that (i)

-48-

is or becomes generally known by the public, other than as a result of a disclosure in breach of thisSection 5.10(b), (ii) is independently obtained after the Closing from sources that are not known by the Purchaser to be in violation of any legal, contractual or fiduciary obligation to the Seller with respect thereto or otherwise prohibited by Law, contract or fiduciary duty from disclosing such information (each, a “Purchaser Permitted Source”), (iii) becomes available to the Purchaser after the Closing on a non-confidential basis from a source that is a Purchaser Permitted Source or (iv) is independently developed by the Purchaser without the use of or reference to any Seller Confidential Information. If the Purchaser is requested or required by any Governmental Authority (other than the FTC) to disclose any of such Seller Confidential Information, then the Purchaser will provide the Seller with prompt written notice of such request or requirement. The Purchaser shall reasonably cooperate with the Seller, at the Seller’s expense, in attempting to obtain any reasonable protective relief that the Seller chooses to promptly seek;provided, however, that the Purchaser shall not be obligated to undertake any Legal Proceeding. If, after the Seller has had a reasonable opportunity to seek such relief, the Seller fails to obtain such relief, or if the Purchaser is compelled by Law to disclose any Seller Confidential Information, then the Seller may disclose only the portion of such Seller Confidential Information which its legal counsel advises it is compelled to disclose.

(c) The obligations of the Purchaser and its Affiliates pursuant to the Confidentiality Agreement or any other confidentiality or non-disclosure agreement among the Seller or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, on the other hand, in respect of Transferred Business Confidential Information (i) shall terminate as of the Closing and cease to be of any further force or effect or (ii) if this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Article VII, shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with its terms.

(it being understood that any unspecified payments shall be treated as being paid in respect of the earliest incurred payable owed by such payor), excluding payments in respect of Taxes, such checks or cash (i) shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Seller, (ii) shall be segregated from the other property or funds of the Purchaser (or its Affiliate, as applicable), (iii) in the case of checks, shall be duly and properly endorsed to the Seller in accordance with such instruction as the Seller shall from time to time furnish to the Purchaser, (iv) in the case of checks, shall be promptly forwarded by the Purchaser to the Seller and (v) in the case of cash in a form other than a check, shall be promptly forwarded to the Seller in such manner as the Seller shall from time to time direct.

(a) The Purchaser acknowledges that the Purchaser has had the opportunity to review current title reports issued by the Title Company as of various dates prior to the date hereof for all of the Real Property, certain underlying exception documents in connection therewith and certain surveys, copies of which have been provided to the Purchaser prior to the date hereof and which are listed onSchedule 5.13(a) hereto (collectively, the “Pre-Signing Title Documents”) and that the Purchaser has concluded that except for those title matters described onSchedule 5.13(a)(i) (as to which an ALTA survey is required in order to confirm whether such matter is a Title Defect), the standard title exceptions customarily deleted by a title company upon receipt of a survey or an affidavit of the Seller andSchedule 5.13(a)(ii) (which Purchaser objects to as Title Defects), the matters disclosed in the Pre-Signing Title Documents are Permitted Encumbrances. The Purchaser shall have the right to object in writing to any Title Defects (other than Permitted Encumbrances) (i) that are title matters that were not included or disclosed in the Pre-Signing Title Documents or that are standard title exceptions customarily deleted by a title company upon receipt of a survey or an affidavit of the Seller or (ii) that are set forth onSchedule 5.13(a)(i) orSchedule 5.13(a)(ii), within ten (10) Business Days after the later of (i) the date hereof and (ii) the date upon which

-50-

the Purchaser has obtained the necessary documentation (which shall include the document relating to such Title Defect and, if a survey is reasonably required to evaluate the nature or impact of the Title Defect, an ALTA survey of the subject Owned Real Property from which the nature or impact of the Title Defect can be evaluated) to make a Title Objection (but in any event prior to the seventh (7th) Business Day before the Closing;provided, that the necessary documentation with respect to a given Title Defect has been obtained by the Purchaser not less than three (3) days prior to such seventh (7th) Business Day;provided,further, that Title Defects shall not include any title matters that arise on or after the Closing Date). Any written notice delivered by the Purchaser to the Seller in accordance with the requirements of the preceding sentence shall include the basis (in reasonable detail) for the Purchaser’s position that such matter is not a Permitted Encumbrance.

(b) The Purchaser shall not be entitled to object to any Encumbrances or any other title exceptions (and the same shall not constitute Title Defects or any breach of Seller’s representations hereunder, but instead shall be deemed Permitted Encumbrances) (i) over which the Title Company is willing to insure on commercially reasonable terms without any cost to or indemnity by the Seller, (ii) against which the Title Company is willing to provide affirmative insurance on commercially reasonable terms without any cost to or indemnity by the Seller or (iii) which will be extinguished at the Closing by the Seller, at the Seller’s sole cost and expense. Any title matters to which the Purchaser shall not object in accordance herewith shall constitute Permitted Encumbrances. Title Defects that are timely objected to by the Purchaser and which are not Permitted Encumbrances are herein collectively called “Title Objections.”

(c) The Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to remove, at its expense, any Title Objections, and shall be entitled to a reasonable adjournment of the Closing (such adjournment not to extend beyond the earlier of (i) ninety (90) days and (ii) the third (3^rd) Business Day prior to the Termination Date) to accomplish the same. The Seller shall advise the Purchaser in writing within five (5) Business Days after receipt of the Purchaser’s notice of Title Objections whether the Seller intends to seek to remove the same.

(d) If the Seller is unable (after use of its commercially reasonable efforts to do so) to remove any Title Defects, except as otherwise provided in the following proviso, the Purchaser shall nonetheless be required to accept title subject to the Title Objection, in which event such Title Defect shall thereupon constitute a Permitted Encumbrance and shall no longer constitute a Title Defect for purposes of this Agreement (other than as set forth in the following proviso) and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Seller shall not be required to deliver any Release Deliverable, Title Deliverable or Post-Closing Title Delivery in connection therewith;provided,however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in thisSection 5.13, thisSection 5.13 shall not (i) impair any of the rights of the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents or other representatives to indemnification under Article VIII in respect of any Title Defect or amend any representation or warranty herein or any disclosure schedule hereto for the purposes of such indemnification or (ii) for the avoidance of doubt constitute a waiver of satisfaction and fulfillment of the conditions listed inArticle VI.

The terms and provisions of this Agreement may be modified or amended only by a written instrument executed by each of the parties hereto, and compliance with any term or provision hereof may be waived only by a written instrument executed by each party entitled to the benefits of the same;provided, that any such modification, amendment or waiver shall first have been submitted to and approved by the FTC;provided,further, that nothing in this provision shall operate to limit the right of the Purchaser or the Seller to terminate this Agreement in accordance with the provisions ofSection 7.01 or to require the Purchaser or the Seller to obtain approval of the FTC prior to exercise of such right. Except as expressly provided herein to the contrary, no failure to exercise any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege granted hereunder.

This Agreement (including the Exhibits and Schedules hereto and the certificates, opinions and documents delivered in accordance with the provisions hereof), together with the Ancillary Deliveries and the Davenport Agreement, constitutes the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, whether written or oral, between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.

No party may assign this Agreement without the prior written consent of each of the other parties hereto;provided,however, that the Purchaser may assign this Agreement or its rights, interests or obligations hereunder (including the right of the Purchaser to

-78-

acquire all or any part of the Assets at the Closing) to any controlled subsidiary of the Purchaser or to any successor to all or substantially all of the business of the Purchaser or to all or substantially all of the Transferred Business;provided,however, that (x) the Purchaser shall remain liable to the Seller for the performance of its obligations hereunder unless the Seller otherwise agrees in writing and (y) no such assignment would reasonably be expected to prevent, or materially impede, interfere with, hinder or delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

SECTION 10.07.Governing Law. This Agreement, and all disputes, controversies or Legal Proceedings arising in connection with or commenced by or on behalf of any party to this Agreement in connection with or relating to this Agreement, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law that would require the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction, except to the extent that mandatory principles of conflicts of law require the application of the laws of another jurisdiction wherein any of the Assets are located to determine the validity or effect of the sale, conveyance, transfer, assignment and delivery thereof in accordance withArticle I.

SECTION 10.08.Choice of Forum; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a) All disputes, controversies or Legal Proceedings arising in connection with or commenced by or on behalf of any party to this Agreement in connection with or relating to this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Deliveries or any matters described or contemplated herein or therein (other than with respect to the matters, if any, to be submitted to the Accounting Arbiter in accordance withSection 1.05(d) orSection 5.06(i)) shall be instituted in the courts of the State of Delaware. Each party to this Agreement irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Delaware for all purposes related to any such dispute, disagreement or Legal Proceeding.

(b) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably (i) submits itself to the personal jurisdiction of any court within the State of Delaware, (ii) waives any defense or objection it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby brought in the courts of the State of Delaware and (iii) waives any claim that any Legal Proceeding under this Agreement brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

If any provision contained herein shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason, the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability thereof shall not affect any other provision hereof, and, to the extent permitted by Law, this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.

SECTION 10.10.Specific Performance.

(a) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy expressly conferred hereby, and the exercise by a party of any one such remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other such remedy.

(b) The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with the terms hereof and that, although monetary damages may be available for such a breach, monetary damages would be an inadequate remedy therefor. Accordingly, each of the parties agree that, in the event of any breach or threatened breach of any provision of this Agreement by such party, the other party shall be entitled to injunction or injunctions, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches hereof and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

SECTION 10.11.Press Releases. No party hereto (nor any of its Affiliates) shall issue any press release or other public announcement relating to the subject matter of this Agreement prior to the Closing without the prior written approval of the other parties hereto, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned;provided,however, that any party hereto may make any public disclosure to the extent such party determines such action to be required by applicable Law or the rules of any stock exchange or other regulatory body or agency applicable to it or its Affiliates (in which case the disclosing party will, if practicable in the circumstances, use reasonable efforts to allow the other party reasonable time to comment on such disclosure in advance of its issuance).

SECTION 10.12.Headings. The headings herein are for convenience of reference only, do not constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit, extend or otherwise affect the meaning of any of the provisions hereof.

SECTION 10.14.Rescission. In the event the FTC shall not have approved on or prior to the Closing Date the final Decision and Order issued by it in disposition of its proceeding relating to the Merger, and following the Closing Date, the FTC shall have notified (such notification, the “Regulatory Nonsatisfaction Notice”) the Purchaser that, for purposes thereof, the Seller would not be an acceptable purchaser of the Davenport Business and that the transactions contemplated hereby are required to be rescinded, then the Purchaser shall give prompt notice thereof to the Seller and the parties hereto shall promptly take all actions as may be necessary or desirable to rescind the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and to restore to each party its rights, powers and obligations as in existence immediately prior to the Closing, including (a) execution by the Purchaser of such assignments, transfers and other documents and instruments as may be necessary or desirable to convey, assign and transfer back to the Seller all of the Purchaser’s right, title and interest in and to the Assets and (b) the execution by the Seller of such assumptions and other documents and instruments as may be necessary or desirable to relieve the Purchaser of all liability for any Assumed Liabilities existing on the Closing Date.

SECTION 10.15.Guarantee

(a) Each of the Guarantors, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, hereby irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally guarantees the due, punctual and complete performance and payment (and not merely collection) in full of all obligations and liabilities of the Seller and its Affiliates incurred under, arising out of or in connection with this Agreement and each of the Ancillary Deliveries, as and when due and payable or required to be performed pursuant to any provisions of this Agreement or the Ancillary Deliveries, as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented in accordance with their terms (the “Guaranteed Obligations”). Each of the Guarantors acknowledges and agrees that the Purchaser shall be entitled to enforce directly against each such Guarantor any of the Guaranteed Obligations. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, each of the Guarantors waives presentment to, demand of payment from and protest to any other Person of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and also waives promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance of this guarantee and of the Guaranteed Obligations and notice of protest for nonpayment. The Guaranteed Obligations shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, shall not be subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations, or otherwise, and shall be joint and several obligations of each of the Guarantors and the Purchaser. The Purchaser shall not be obligated to file any claim related to the Guaranteed Obligations in the event the Seller becomes subject to a

-81-

bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding and the failure of the Purchaser to so file shall not affect the Guarantors’ obligations hereunder. In the event that any payment to the Purchaser hereunder is rescinded or must otherwise be returned for any reason whatsoever, each of the Guarantors shall remain liable hereunder as if such payment had not been made.

(b) Each of the Guarantors further agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations hereunder shall not be discharged except by complete performance or payment of the amounts payable under this Agreement and the Ancillary Deliveries, as applicable, and that the obligations of each of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be released or discharged, in whole or in part, or otherwise affected by (i) the failure of the Purchaser to assert any claim or demand or enforce any right or remedy against the Seller or any other Person; (ii) insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding affecting the Seller or any related party, or the dissolution, liquidation, merger, or winding up of any such entity; (iii) waiver, compromise, consolidation or other amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Deliveries, as applicable, made in accordance with the terms thereof or any agreement evidencing, securing or otherwise executed in connection with any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (iv) any change in corporate existence, structure or ownership of either of the Guarantors, the Seller, or any other Person interested in the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Deliveries, as applicable; (v) the existence of any claim, setoff or other right that either of the Guarantors may have against the Purchaser or any other entity; or (vi) the adequacy of any other means the Purchaser may have of obtaining payment related to the Guaranteed Obligations. Each of the Guarantors acknowledges that it will receive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Deliveries.

(c) This guarantee shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of the Guarantor and shall inure to the benefit of the Purchaser and its successors and assigns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that either of the Guarantors or any of its successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and is not the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers or conveys in one transaction or a series of transactions all or substantially all of its properties and other assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, such Guarantor shall cause proper provision to be made so that such successor or assign shall expressly assume the obligations set forth in thisSection 10.15.
