EQUITY PURCHASE AGREEMENT

This EQUITY PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of September 13, 2021 (the “Effective Date”), is by and among Intuit Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Purchaser”), The Rocket Science Group LLC, a Georgia limited liability company (the “Company”), VERP Holdings I, LLC, a Georgia limited liability company (“VERP I”), VERP Holdings II, LLC, a Georgia limited liability company (“VERP II”), DMK RSG, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“DMK RSG”), DMK Life LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“DMK Life”), DMK 10 LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“DMK 10”), DMK 20 LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“DMK 20”), DMK RSG Holdco LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“DMK RSG Holdco” and together with VERP I, VERP II, DMK RSG, DMK Life, DMK 10 and DMK 20, the “Sellers”), and Benjamin Chestnut, an individual resident of the State of Georgia, as the Sellers’ representative (the “Sellers’ Representative”). Purchaser, the Company, the Sellers and the Sellers’ Representative are each sometimes referred to herein as a “Party” or collectively as the “Parties”.

RECITALS:

1. The Sellers collectively own all of the issued and outstanding limited liability company interests of the Company.

2. The Purchased Companies are engaged in the business of providing email, marketing automation, customer relationship management or digital marketing services.

3. Concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, and as an inducement to Purchaser to enter into this Agreement, Purchaser is entering into restrictive covenant agreements with each of Benjamin Chestnut and Daniel Kurzius in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Restrictive Covenant Agreements”).

4. On the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, Purchaser desires to purchase the Purchased Equity from the Sellers, and the Sellers desire to sell the Purchased Equity to Purchaser (the “Equity Purchase”).

Accordingly, the Parties agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

PURCHASE AND SALE OF PURCHASED EQUITY

Section 1.1 Purchase and Sale. On the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, at the Closing, each of the Sellers will sell, assign, transfer, convey and deliver to Purchaser, and Purchaser will purchase, assume, acquire and accept from each of the Sellers, all of such Seller’s rights, title and interest in and to the Purchased Equity, in each case, free and clear of any Encumbrances (other than transfer restrictions imposed thereon by applicable securities Law).

Section 1.2 Amount and Form of Purchase Price. The aggregate purchase price to be paid to the Sellers in consideration of the Purchased Equity will be an amount in cash equal to the Closing Payment plus the Closing Stock Consideration, in each case subject to the adjustments set forth in Section 1.4 (the Closing Payment and the Closing Stock Consideration, as so adjusted, the “Purchase Price”).

Section 1.3 Estimated Closing Adjustment Statement; Closing Payment.

(a) Not later than four Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company will deliver to Purchaser a statement (the “Estimated Closing Adjustment Statement”), certified by the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, setting forth (i) the Company’s good faith estimates of Closing Net Working Capital (“Estimated Closing Net Working Capital”), Closing Indebtedness (“Estimated Closing Indebtedness”), Closing Cash (“Estimated Closing Cash”) and Closing Transaction Expenses (“Estimated Closing Transaction Expenses”) and (ii) a calculation of the Estimated Closing Adjustment based thereon. The Estimated Closing Adjustment Statement will (x) be derived from the books and records of the Purchased Companies, (y) be prepared in accordance with the Accounting Principles, and (z) include reasonable supporting detail to evidence the calculations of the amounts contained therein. In the event that Purchaser notifies the Company that there are reasonably apparent errors in the Estimated Closing Adjustment Statement, the Company and Purchaser will discuss such errors identified by Purchaser in good faith, and, to the extent the Company agrees that there are errors in any of the calculations set forth in the Estimated Closing Adjustment Statement, the Company will correct such errors prior to the Closing Date.

(b) At the Closing, Purchaser will pay to each Seller, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account or accounts designated by the Sellers’ Representative prior to the Closing Date, such Seller’s Pro Rata Percentage of the Closing Payment.

(c) At the Closing, Purchaser will instruct its transfer agent to cause the Closing Stock Consideration to be accepted into The Depository Trust Company and to be issued (in uncertificated book-entry form) to the Sellers, in accordance with each Seller’s Pro Rata Percentage and to an account or accounts designated in writing by the Sellers’ Representative to Purchaser at least four Business Days prior to the Closing Date.

Section 1.4 Post-Closing Purchase Price Adjustment

(a) Preparation of the Preliminary Statement. Within 60 days after the Closing Date, Purchaser will prepare and deliver to the Sellers’ Representative a preliminary statement (the “Preliminary Statement”) setting forth in reasonable detail Purchaser’s good faith calculation of (i) Closing Net Working Capital, Closing Indebtedness, Closing Cash and Closing Transaction Expenses and (ii) the Adjustment Amount based thereon. The Preliminary Statement will (x) be derived from the books and records of the Purchased Companies, (y) be prepared in accordance with the Accounting Principles, and (z) include reasonable supporting detail to evidence the calculations of the amounts contained therein.

2

(b) Review of Preliminary Statement

(i) During the 30-day period commencing upon receipt by the Sellers’ Representative of the Preliminary Statement (the “Review Period”), Purchaser shall provide the Sellers’ Representative and any accountants and advisors engaged by the Sellers’ Representative with reasonable access, during normal business hours and upon reasonable advanced notice, to the personnel, books and records of the Purchased Companies with respect to the Preliminary Statement; provided that Purchaser shall not be required to provide the Sellers’ Representative or any of its accountants or advisors access to any document that would reasonably be expected to result in the (x) violation of any applicable confidentiality restriction, or (y) waiver of the attorney client, work product or other privilege.

(ii) If the Sellers’ Representative disputes the calculation of the Adjustment Amount set forth in the Preliminary Statement, then the Sellers’ Representative shall deliver a written notice (a “Notice of Disagreement”) to Purchaser prior to the expiration of the Review Period. The Notice of Disagreement shall set forth, in reasonable detail, the principal basis for the dispute of such calculation and the Sellers’ Representative’s determination of the Adjustment Amount (including the Sellers’ Representative’s proposed calculations of Closing Net Working Capital, Closing Indebtedness, Closing Cash and Closing Transaction Expenses).

(iii) If the Sellers’ Representative does not deliver a Notice of Disagreement to Purchaser prior to the expiration of the Review Period, the Adjustment Amount set forth in the Preliminary Statement shall be deemed final and binding on Purchaser, the Sellers’ Representative and each of the Sellers as the Adjustment Amount for all purposes of this Agreement.

(c) Meeting to Resolve Proposed Adjustments. If the Sellers’ Representative delivers a Notice of Disagreement prior to the expiration of the Review Period in accordance with Section 1.4(b)(ii), then Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative shall meet, confer and exchange additional relevant information reasonably requested by the other Party regarding the computation of the Adjustment Amount for a period of 20 days following the delivery of the Notice of Disagreement to Purchaser, and use reasonable best efforts to resolve by written agreement (the “Agreed Modifications”) any differences as to the Adjustment Amount. In the event Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative so resolve any such differences, the Adjustment Amount set forth in the Preliminary Statement, as adjusted by the Agreed Modifications, shall be final and binding on Purchaser, the Sellers’ Representative and each of the Sellers as the Adjustment Amount for all purposes of this Agreement.

3

(d) Resolution by Accounting Referee.

(i) If the Sellers’ Representative and Purchaser are unable to reach agreement on the calculation of the Adjustment Amount within the 20 day period following the delivery of the Notice of Disagreement to Purchaser, then either the Sellers’ Representative or Purchaser may submit any remaining disputed adjustments that were included in the Notice of Disagreement to an independent accounting firm mutually acceptable to Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative, or if Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative are not able to agree on a mutually acceptable independent accounting firm within 30 days, then an independent accounting firm of national standing selected by the American Arbitration Association (the “Accounting Referee”) in accordance with the following provisions of this Section 1.4(d); provided that the Accounting Referee will not have provided audit, accounting, or other services to Purchaser or the Sellers’ Representative or their respective Affiliates in the past five years.

(ii) The Sellers’ Representative will furnish the Accounting Referee with a copy of this Agreement, the Financial Statements, the Preliminary Statement and the Notice of Disagreement. Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative will also give the Accounting Referee position papers outlining such Party’s respective arguments and supporting documentation for such Party’s position; provided, however, that Purchaser’s positions, arguments and computations must match those set forth in the Preliminary Statement or agreed to with the Sellers’ Representative pursuant to Section 1.4(c) above (and the Accounting Referee will not consider any that do not so match), and the Sellers’ Representative’s positions, arguments and computations must match those set forth in the Notice of Disagreement or agreed to with Purchaser pursuant to Section 1.4(c) above (and the Accounting Referee will not consider any that do not so match).

(iii) The Accounting Referee’s engagement will be limited to (A) reviewing the Preliminary Statement and the amounts placed in dispute by the Notice of Disagreement pursuant to Section 1.4(b)(ii) that remain in dispute (the “Unresolved Matters”); (B) determining an amount with respect to any such Unresolved Matter that is within the range defined by the respective amounts proposed by the Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative; and (C) calculating the Adjustment Amount, which will include those amounts in the Preliminary Statement deemed to be accepted by the Sellers’ Representative pursuant to Section 1.4(b)(iii), those adjustments otherwise agreed to in writing by Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative pursuant to Section 1.4(c), and those amounts determined by the Accounting Referee for the Unresolved Matters in accordance with this Agreement (including the Accounting Principles). The Accounting Referee’s determination will be based solely on information provided to the Accounting Referee by Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative and not based on any independent review. The fees and expenses of the Accounting Referee will be borne by the Sellers’ Representative and Purchaser in inverse proportion as they may prevail on matters resolved by the Accounting Referee, which proportionate allocations will also be determined by the Accounting Referee at the time the determination of the Accounting Referee is rendered on the Adjustment Amount; provided that any retainer or other upfront costs or expenses of the Accounting Referee will be equally divided between the Sellers’ Representative and Purchaser, subject to re-allocation as set forth above.

4

(iv) The Parties will instruct the Accounting Referee to (A) complete its calculation of the Adjustment Amount within 20 days from the date of submission of the Unresolved Matters to the Accounting Referee pursuant to Section 1.4(d)(i) and (B) deliver promptly thereafter its calculation of the Adjustment Amount to the Sellers’ Representative and Purchaser, together with a concise and reasoned written report setting forth each Unresolved Matter and the Accounting Referee’s determination with respect thereto. The Accounting Referee’s determination and calculation of the Adjustment Amount will be conclusive and binding upon the Parties (absent mathematical errors by the Accounting Referee) for all purposes of this Agreement and may be entered and enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction as an arbitral award.

(e) Payment of Adjustment Amount. If the Adjustment Amount (as finally determined in accordance with this Section 1.4) is:

(i) a positive number, Purchaser will promptly pay (or cause to be paid) to each Seller, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account or accounts designated in writing by the Sellers’ Representative to Purchaser, an amount in cash equal to the product of (A) such Seller’s Pro Rata Percentage multiplied by (B) the Adjustment Amount; or

(ii) a negative number, each Seller will promptly pay to Purchaser, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated in writing by Purchaser to the Sellers’ Representative, an amount in cash equal to the product of (A) such Seller’s Pro Rata Percentage multiplied by (B) the absolute value of the Adjustment Amount.

Section 1.5 Fractional Share. The number of shares of Purchaser Stock to which a Seller is entitled pursuant to this Article I will be rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of Purchaser Stock. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no fractional shares of Purchaser Stock will be issued, and if, after aggregating all shares of Purchaser Stock (including fractional shares) that would be issued hereunder to a Seller, such aggregate number of shares of Purchaser Stock includes a fraction of a share of Purchaser Stock, no certificates or scrip for any such fractional shares will be issued hereunder and such Seller will receive an amount in cash equal to the product of (a) such fraction of a share of Purchaser Stock multiplied by (b) the Purchaser Stock Price.

Section 1.6 Equitable Adjustments. If at any time during the period between the date of this Agreement and the Closing, any change in the outstanding shares of Purchaser Stock occurs by reason of any reclassification, recapitalization, stock split or combination, exchange or readjustment of shares, or any stock dividend thereon with a record date during such period, the Closing Stock Consideration and any number or amount contained in this Agreement which is based on the price of Purchaser Stock or the number of shares of Purchaser Stock will be equitably adjusted to the extent necessary to provide the Parties the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such reclassification, recapitalization, stock split or combination, exchange or readjustment of shares, or stock dividend thereon.

5

Section 1.7 Withholding. Purchaser (and any agent of Purchaser, as applicable) will be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise deliverable under this Agreement, and from any other payments otherwise required pursuant to this Agreement, such amounts as Purchaser (or its agent) is required to deduct and withhold with respect to any such deliveries and payments under the Code or any other provision of applicable Tax Law. Purchaser will provide the Sellers’ Representative with prior written notice of any proposed deduction and withholding on any consideration payable to the Sellers in respect of the Purchased Equity and will consult in good faith and in accordance with applicable Tax Law with the Sellers’ Representative in respect of any applicable exemptions or reductions of the amount of such deduction and withholding. To the extent that amounts are so withheld or deducted, such withheld or deducted amounts will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been delivered and paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made. Such withheld or deducted amounts shall be remitted to the appropriate Taxing Authority in accordance with applicable Tax Law.

ARTICLE II

The closing of the Transactions (the “Closing”) will take place at the offices of King & Spalding LLP, 1180 Peachtree Street, N.E., Atlanta, Georgia 30309 on the fifth Business Day following the satisfaction (or written waiver, to the extent permitted by applicable Law) of the conditions set forth in Article VIII (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied by actions taken at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction of such conditions), or on such other date or at such other place or time as the Sellers’ Representative and Purchaser mutually agree in writing, including remotely through the electronic exchange of documents; provided, however, that unless Purchaser provides prior written consent, the Closing shall not occur during the last two weeks of a Purchaser fiscal quarter, in which case the Closing shall instead occur within two Business Days following the last date of such Purchaser fiscal quarter (subject to the satisfaction or written waiver, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, of the conditions set forth in Article VIII); provided, further, that if the Closing would have occurred at any time during the last two weeks of a Purchaser fiscal quarter but for the foregoing proviso, and at such time as the Closing would have occurred the condition set forth in Section 8.2(f) was satisfied, such condition set forth in Section 8.2(f) will be deemed to be satisfied as of such time as the Closing actually does occur.

All filings, payments and other actions required to be made or taken to obtain, perfect or maintain in full force and effect each item of Owned Registered IP have been made or taken by the applicable deadline and otherwise in accordance with all applicable Laws.

No interference, opposition, reissue, reexamination, or other Action of any nature is, or since January 1, 2018, has been, asserted or threatened in writing against any of the Purchased Companies in which the scope, validity or enforceability of any Owned Registered IP is contested or challenged.

17

(b) A Purchased Company is the sole and exclusive owner of the Owned IP, free and clear of all Encumbrances (other than Permitted Encumbrances), and such Owned IP has not been adjudged invalid or unenforceable. The Business IP constitutes all Intellectual Property used in or necessary for the conduct of the businesses of the Purchased Companies as currently conducted.

(c) Since January 1, 2018, no written claim has been made by or, to the Knowledge of the Purchased Companies, exists from any third party against any Purchased Company (i) contesting the validity, enforceability or ownership of any of the Owned IP, or (ii) alleging that the operation of the business of the Purchased Companies infringes, misappropriates or otherwise violates any third-party Intellectual Property, and, in the case of the preceding clauses (i) and (ii), no such claims are threatened in a writing received by any of the Purchased Companies. The operation of the business of the Purchased Companies has not infringed upon, misappropriated or otherwise violated and is not presently infringing upon, misappropriating or otherwise violating any third-party Intellectual Property rights, and to the Knowledge of the Purchased Companies, no third party is infringing the Owned IP.

(d) Neither the execution, delivery, or performance of this Agreement, nor the consummation of any of the Transactions, will, with or without notice or the lapse of time, result in, or give any other Person the right or option to cause or declare, (i) a loss of, or Encumbrance on, any Owned IP, (ii) the release, disclosure, or delivery of any Owned IP by or to any escrow agent or other Person or (iii) the grant, assignment, or transfer to any other Person of any license or other right or interest under, to, or in any Owned IP.

Each Person who is or was an employee or contractor of any Purchased Company and who is or was engaged by a Purchased Company to design, create or otherwise develop any material Intellectual Property has signed an enforceable agreement containing an irrevocable assignment to the applicable Purchased Company of all such Intellectual Property. No present or former employee, officer, outside contractor or consultant of a Purchased Company holds any right, title or interest, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, in or to any material Owned IP. The Purchased Companies maintain at least one copy of the source code and machine readable copies of the Proprietary Software.

18

(f) No Company Product contains any Malicious Code which may (i) disrupt, disable, erase or harm in any way such Company Product’s operation, or cause such Company Product to damage or corrupt any data, hardware, storage media, programs, equipment or communications, (ii) compromise the privacy or data security of a user or damaging or destroying any data or file without the user’s consent or (iii) permit any Person to access such Company Product without authorization. Each Purchased Company implements industry standard measures designed to prevent the introduction of any Malicious Code into Company Products. There exist no technical problems with any Proprietary Software or Company Products that materially and adversely affect the performance of such Proprietary Software or Company Products other than routine software bugs and/or glitches that may be remedied in the ordinary course of the business of the Purchased Companies.

(g) No source code for any Company Product has been delivered, licensed, or made available to any escrow agent or other Person who is or was not a Service Provider of any Purchased Company who needs such source code to perform his or her job duties. No Purchased Company has any duty or obligation (whether present, contingent, or otherwise) to deliver, license, or make available the source code for any Company Product to any escrow agent or other Person. No event has occurred, and no circumstance or condition exists, that, with or without notice or lapse of time, will, or would reasonably be expected to, result in the delivery, license, or disclosure of any source code for any Company Product to any other Person.

(h) None of the Company Products is derived from, or is distributed, integrated or bundled with software subject to any license commonly referred to as a “copyleft” or ”open source” license that, as used, modified, integrated, bundled, or distributed by the Purchased Companies: (i) requires or conditions the use or distribution of such Company Product on the disclosure, licensing or distribution of any source code for any portion of such Company Product; (ii) requires the granting to licensees of the right to reverse engineer or make derivative works or other modifications to such Company Product or portions thereof, (iii) otherwise imposes an obligation on the Purchased Companies to license or distribute any Company Product or (iv) would otherwise impose any limitation, restriction or condition on the right or ability of any Purchased Company to use, license, distribute or charge for any Company Product or any Intellectual Property rights therein.

(i) No funding, facilities, or personnel of any Governmental Authority were used, to develop or create, in whole or in part, any Owned IP. No Purchased Company is a party to any Contract with any Governmental Authority that grants to such Governmental Authority any right or license with respect to any Owned IP except as a customer of any Company Product in the ordinary course of business pursuant to the Purchased Companies’ standard terms and conditions.

(j) The Purchased Companies have implemented and maintained, and required all third parties Processing or otherwise with access to Personal Data collected or Processed by or on behalf of the Purchased Companies (“Data Vendors”) to implement and maintain, an information security plan (the “Security Plan”), which implements industry standard organizational, technical, and physical safeguards to (i) protect the integrity, availability, and security of the IT Systems, and the information stored therein (including, but not limited to, Personal Data, Proprietary Information and other confidential data in the possession or under the control of the Purchased

19

Companies) against loss, theft, damage, misuse or accidental, unlawful or unauthorized use, disclosure, access or modification (each a “Security Incident”) and (ii) identify and address internal and external risks to the Processing, privacy and security of Personal Data in any Purchased Company’s possession or control. Each Purchased Company has, and at all times since January 1, 2018, has had, in place contractual arrangements with all Data Vendors requiring protection of Personal Data in a manner consistent with the respective Privacy Obligations of such Purchased Company, and with all customers or other Persons who share Personal Data with the Purchased Companies requiring that the collection and sharing of such Personal Data be in compliance with applicable Privacy Obligations.

(k) No Purchased Company and, to the Knowledge of the Company, none of the Purchased Companies’ respective Data Vendors, have, since January 1, 2018, experienced any Security Incidents. No Purchased Company has, in relation to any actual or suspected Security Incident and/or Privacy Obligation: (i) been required to notify any Person and/or Governmental Authorities, (ii) been the subject of any inquiry, investigation or enforcement action of any Governmental Authority, or (iii) received any notice, request, claim, complaint, correspondence or other communication from any Governmental Authority or other Person.

(l) The IT Systems (i) are sufficient in all material respects for the current operations of the Purchased Companies, (ii) have not, at any time since January 1, 2018, malfunctioned or failed in any material respect, and (iii) do not contain any Malicious Code. The Purchased Companies have implemented and maintain commercially reasonable measures designed to protect the integrity and security of the IT Systems under their control, as well as commercially reasonable data backup and continuity, system redundancy and disaster avoidance and recovery procedures.

(m) Each Purchased Company is, and since January 1, 2018, has been, in compliance in all material respects with its Privacy Obligations. No Action is pending or has been made or, to the Knowledge of the Purchased Companies, threatened against any Purchased Company alleging that any use, disclosure, or Processing of Personal Data by such Purchased Company is in violation of a Privacy Obligation. The Purchased Companies’ Privacy Policies are, and since January 1, 2018, have been accurate, consistent and complete, and not misleading or deceptive (including by omission) regarding each Purchased Company’s then-current Processing activities.

(n) No Purchased Company has transferred or permitted the transfer of Personal Data originating in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom outside of the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, except where such transfers have complied with Privacy Obligations.

(o) The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the Transactions will not: (i) breach in any material respect any Privacy Obligation; (ii) require the consent of or provision of notice to any Person concerning such Person’s Personal Data or to any Governmental Authority; (iii) give rise

20

to any right of termination or other right to impair or limit the Purchaser’s rights to own and Process any Personal Data used in the operation of the Purchased Companies’ business; or (iv) otherwise prohibit the transfer of Personal Data to Purchaser. To the extent that any Personal Data is transferred as part of the Transactions and satisfies the definition of “personal information” as defined by the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”), for the avoidance of doubt, all such Personal Data is an asset that will be transferred as part of the Transactions, as contemplated by section 1798.140(t)(2)(D) of the CCPA.

To the Knowledge of the Purchased Companies, no other party to a Material Contract is in default or breach of such Material Contract, except for any such defaults or breaches that would not reasonably be expected to result in a material Liability owed to the Purchased Companies, taken as a whole, or otherwise materially interfere with the conduct of the business at the Purchased Companies, taken as a whole, in substantially the same manner as currently conducted.

No Purchased Company has any formal plan or has made any promise or commitment to create any additional benefit plans which would be considered an Employee Benefit Plan once created or to materially improve or change the benefits provided under any Employee Benefit Plan, other than as specifically contemplated by this Agreement.

(b) With respect to each such Employee Benefit Plan, the Purchased Companies have made available to Purchaser current copies (as applicable) of (i) the plan document (including all amendments thereto), (ii) trust and other funding agreements, administrative service agreements and group insurance contracts, (iii) summary plan description and any summary of material modifications, (iv) latest available favorable determination or opinion letter from the IRS (or comparable foreign taxation authority), (v) for any Employee Benefit Plan not set forth in writing, a written description of all material terms thereof, (vi) any non-routine correspondence with, and all filings and notices concerning audits or investigations by, any Governmental Authority during the past three years, (vii) the three most recent annual reports (Form 5500 and all schedules and financial statements attached thereto or similar), if any, required under ERISA, the Code, or applicable Laws, and (viii) all annual reports, statements (including financial and accounting statements), valuations, returns and correspondence for each of the last three years which materially affect the Purchased Companies’ premiums, contributions, refunds, deficits or reserves under any Employee Benefit Plan.

29

(c) No Employee Benefit Plan is, and no Purchased Company, nor any ERISA Affiliate thereof, maintains, contributes to, has an obligation to contribute to, or has any direct or indirect Liability (contingent or otherwise) with respect to, (i) any pension plan subject to Title IV of ERISA, Section 302 of ERISA or Section 412 or Section 430 of the Code, “registered pension plan” for purposes of section 248 of the Income Tax Act (Canada) or plan that is or has at any time been required to be registered under foreign, federal or provincial minimum pension standards legislation, (ii) a multiemployer plan within the meaning of ERISA Section 3(37) or other applicable foreign, federal or provincial minimum pension standards legislation, (iii) a plan maintained in connection with a trust described in Section 501(c)(9) of the Code), (iv) a “multiple employer welfare arrangement” (within the meaning of Section 3(40) of ERISA), (v) a multiple employer plan as defined in Section 413(c) of the Code, (vi) a “salary deferral arrangement” for purposes of section 248 of the Income Tax Act (Canada), or (vii) is a “retirement compensation arrangement” for purposes of section 248 of the Income Tax Act (Canada).

Each trust established in connection with any Employee Benefit Plan which is intended to be exempt from federal income taxation under Section 501(a) of the Code is so exempt, and, to the Knowledge of the Purchased Companies, no fact or event has occurred that would reasonably be expected to result in the loss of such exempt status of any such trust. All employer and employee contributions, premiums, payments and assessments required to be made under or in respect of any Employee Benefit Plan or any plan or program maintained by a Governmental Authority to which any Purchased Company is required to contribute pursuant to applicable Law, in each case, have been timely satisfied in full or, to the extent not yet due, properly reflected as a Liability on the Balance Sheet in accordance with the terms of the Employee Benefit Plan and applicable accounting standards, and there are no outstanding defaults or, to the Knowledge of the Purchased Companies, violations thereunder by any Purchased Company.

(e) Each Employee Benefit Plan is and has been maintained, established, operated, funded, registered, invested and administered in compliance with the terms thereof and in compliance in all material respects with all applicable Laws (including ERISA and the Code) and all administrative guidelines issued by applicable Governmental Authorities. Each Purchased Company has performed all obligations required to be performed by such Purchased Company thereunder in all material respects, and is not in default or violation of, and such Purchased Company has no Knowledge of any default or violation by any other party to, any Employee Benefit Plan.

30

(f) No Employee Benefit Plan provides for, and the Purchased Companies, and to the Knowledge of the Purchased Companies, their respective ERISA Affiliates, have no obligation to provide, (i) post-retirement or post-termination health, life, welfare, disability or other benefits except as required by ERISA Section 601 or other applicable Law or (ii) benefits to any individual who is not a Business Employee, or the dependents or other beneficiaries of any such Business Employee.

To the Knowledge of the Purchased Companies, the Transactions will not result in any adverse tax consequences to the participants in any such nonqualified deferred compensation plan as the result of Section 409A of the Code (including the inclusion in income of deferred amounts, or any additional tax pursuant to Section 409A(a)(1)(B) of the Code). None of the Purchased Companies has any obligation to “gross up” or indemnify any individual for any Taxes, including Taxes imposed under Section 409A or Section 4999 of the Code. No compensation has been or would reasonably be expected to be includable in the gross income of any “service provider” (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code) of any Purchased Company as a result of a violation of, or failure to comply with or be exempt from, Section 409A of the Code. No amounts paid or payable by any Purchased Company are subject to any Tax penalty imposed under Section 457A of the Code.

31

(j) Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the consummation of the Transactions (either alone or together with any other transaction or event, including a subsequent termination of service) will (other than as contemplated by this Agreement) (i) entitle any Service Provider to any payment or funding of compensation or benefits, (ii) result in an increase in the amount of compensation or benefits due to any Service Provider, whether or not under any Employee Benefit Plan, or (iii) accelerate the time of payment, funding or vesting of any compensation or benefit to any Service Provider, whether or not under any Employee Benefit Plan.

(k) Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the consummation of the Transactions (either alone or in combination with any other event, whether contingent or otherwise), will, or could reasonably be expected to, give rise directly or indirectly to the payment of any amount that could be characterized as a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code.

(l) No events have occurred with respect to any Employee Benefit Plan that have resulted or, to the Knowledge of the Purchased Companies, could result in payment or assessment by or against any Purchased Company of any excise taxes under Sections 4972, 4975, 4976, 4977, 7979, 4980B, 4980D, 4980E or 5000 of the Code. With respect to each Employee Benefit Plan (i) no Purchased Company has engaged in conduct that would reasonably be expected to result in a, and, to the Knowledge of the Purchased Companies, there has been no, breach of fiduciary duty or other failure to act or comply in connection with the administration or investment of the assets of an Employee Benefit Plan, and (ii) no nonexempt prohibited transaction within the meaning of Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code has occurred. No Purchased Company has made any filing in respect of any Employee Benefit Plans under the Employee Plans Compliance Resolution System, the Department of Labor Voluntary Fiduciary Correction Program or the Department of Labor Delinquent Filer Program.

(m) There has been no amendment to or announcement by any Purchased Company relating to, or change in employee participation or coverage under, any Employee Benefit Plan that would increase materially the expense of maintaining such Employee Benefit Plan above the level of expense incurred in respect thereof for the most recent fiscal year ended prior to the Effective Date, except as specifically contemplated by this Agreement.

(n) No Employee Benefit Plan is a self-insured plan that provides medical, dental or any other similar benefits to employees (including any such plan pursuant to which a stop-loss policy or contract applies). The obligations of all Employee Benefit Plans that provide health, welfare or similar insurance are fully insured by bona fide third-party insurers. No Employee Benefit Plan is maintained through a human resources and benefits outsourcing entity, professional employer organization, or other similar vendor or provider.

(o) With respect to each Foreign Benefit Plan, (i) each Purchased Company has complied with all applicable reporting and notice requirements in all material respects, and such Foreign Benefit Plan has obtained from the Governmental Authority having jurisdiction with respect to such Foreign Benefit Plan any determinations required by applicable Law, if any, that such Foreign Benefit Plan is in

32

compliance with all applicable Laws of the relevant jurisdiction, (ii) there are no pending investigations by any Governmental Authority involving such Foreign Benefit Plan, and no pending claims, or Actions against such Foreign Benefit Plan or asserting any rights or claims to benefits under such Foreign Benefit Plan (except for claims for benefits payable in the normal operation of such Foreign Benefit Plan), (iii) except as required by applicable Law, no condition exists that would prevent any Purchased Company from terminating or amending any Foreign Benefit Plan at any time for any reason in accordance with the terms of each such Foreign Benefit Plan without the payment of any fees, costs or expenses (other than the payment of benefits accrued on the Balance Sheet and routine administrative expenses), and (iv) no Foreign Benefit Plan has unfunded liabilities that will not be offset by insurance or that are not fully accrued on the Balance Sheet.

(p) To the Knowledge of the Purchased Companies, no events have occurred or would be reasonably be expected to occur, and no circumstances exist, including events and/or circumstances related to COVID-19, that would materially interfere with the continuous operation and administration of the Employee Benefit Plans. Except as disclosed on Section 4.16(p) of the Company Disclosure Letter, no Purchased Company has taken any action in connection with events and/or circumstances related to COVID-19 with respect to any Employee Benefit Plan or the compensation or benefits of any Business Employee that is not in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice and as approved by an insurer in respect of any insured plan.

All requests for access will be made to such Representatives of the Company as the Sellers’ Representative will designate, who will be solely responsible for coordinating all such requests and access thereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to the Closing, Purchaser and

46

Purchaser’s Representatives will not contact or in any other manner communicate with the employees, customers and suppliers of the Purchased Companies in connection with the Transactions, except following prior consultation with and written (including via email) approval from the Sellers’ Representative or its Representatives or designees. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision in this Agreement, none of Purchaser, any Affiliate of Purchaser or any Representative of Purchaser will be entitled to review or have access to any Tax Return of the Sellers or any of their respective Affiliates (other than the Purchased Companies) or any work papers related thereto, other than those portions or excerpts thereof (or a pro forma Tax Return) relating solely to the Purchased Companies.

(b) During the Pre-Closing Period, the Company will notify Purchaser promptly, and in any event with five Business Days, of:

(i) learning of the commencement of (x) any Action involving a Purchased Company, or any director, officer or employee of a Purchased Company (in such capacity), or (y) any investigation involving an alleged failure by a Purchased Company, or any director, officer or employee of a Purchased Company (in such capacity), to comply with applicable Law;

(ii) receipt by the Company of any notice or other communication from any Person alleging that the consent of such Person is or may be required in connection with the Transactions;

(iii) receipt by the Company of any notice or other communication from any Governmental Authority (x) delivered in connection with the Transactions or (y) indicating that a Permit has been revoked or is about to be revoked or that a Permit is required in any jurisdiction in which such Permit has not been obtained, which revocation or failure to obtain has had or would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect;

(iv) learning of any material inaccuracy in or breach of any representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement; provided, that any failure to provide notice under this Section 6.2(b) shall not be considered with respect to the satisfaction of the condition set forth in Section 8.2(b) unless such failure to provide notice pursuant to this Section 6.2(b) was knowing and intentional; and

(v) learning of any event, condition, fact or circumstance that would make the timely satisfaction of any of the conditions set forth in Article VIII impossible or reasonably unlikely.

Section 6.3 Efforts to Close; Antitrust Clearance

(a) In addition to the actions specifically provided for elsewhere in this Agreement or in any Ancillary Agreement, the Sellers, the Company and Purchaser will cooperate with each other and use (and will cause their respective Affiliates, including in the case of the Company, the other Purchased Companies, to use) their reasonable best efforts, prior to, at and after the Closing Date, to take, or to cause to be taken, all

47

actions, and to do, or to cause to be done, all things reasonably necessary on its part under applicable Law or contractual obligations, including delivering all required notices and obtaining all required consents and approvals of third parties including Governmental Authorities, to consummate and make effective the Transactions as promptly as reasonably practicable; provided, however, that (i) none of the Sellers, the Purchased Companies or any of their respective Affiliates will be required to make any payments, incur any Liability, or offer or grant any accommodation (financial or otherwise) to any third party in connection with obtaining any consent, approval or waiver unless required by the express terms of any such Contract and (ii) none of the Sellers, the Purchased Companies or any of their respective Affiliates will be required to, and shall not without the prior written consent of Purchaser, offer or agree to sell, divest, lease, license, transfer, dispose of or otherwise encumber before or after the Closing any assets, licenses, operations, rights, product lines, business or interests therein of such Seller, Purchased Company or any of its Affiliates or agree to make any changes to or restriction on, or other impairment of such Seller’s, Purchased Company’s or its Affiliates’ ability to own, operate or exercise rights in respect of, such assets, licenses, operations, rights, product lines, business or interests therein, unless such commitments are conditioned on the occurrence of the Closing.

(b) The Sellers, the Company and Purchaser will comply fully with all applicable notification, reporting and other requirements of applicable Law and Governmental Authorities. The Sellers, the Company and Purchaser will, and will cause their respective Affiliates to (i) as promptly as practicable (and in relation to a filing under the HSR Act, no later than three Business Days after the Effective Date or by such later date agreed to by the Sellers’ Representative and Purchaser), file the required notifications with the appropriate Governmental Authorities pursuant to and in compliance with applicable Antitrust Laws, and (ii) make other filings with the appropriate Governmental Authorities as are required under other applicable Antitrust Laws as soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Date. The Sellers, the Company and Purchaser will, and will cause their respective Affiliates to, file as soon as practicable, any additional information reasonably requested by any Governmental Authority. Purchaser will pay the filing fees related to compliance with Antitrust Laws.

(c) Purchaser will use its reasonable best efforts to take any and all necessary steps to eliminate impediments under any Antitrust Law that are at any time asserted by any Governmental Authority with respect to the Transactions so as to permit such transactions to be consummated as promptly as practicable (and in any event no later than the Initial Outside Date). In the event of any Action (instituted or threatened to be instituted) challenging the Transactions as violative of any applicable Antitrust Laws, Purchaser will use its reasonable best efforts to settle, vigorously contest and resist any such Action, and to have vacated, lifted, reversed, or overturned any Order, whether temporary, preliminary or permanent, that is in effect and that delays, prohibits, prevents, or restricts consummation of the Transactions, including by vigorously pursuing all available avenues of administrative and judicial appeal unless, by mutual agreement, Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative decide that litigation or resolution by means of settlement is not in their respective best interests. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will Purchaser be required pursuant to this

48

Section 6.3(c) to offer or agree to sell, divest, lease, license, transfer, dispose of or otherwise encumber, before or after the Closing, any assets, licenses, operations, rights, product lines, business or interests therein of Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including, after the Closing, any Purchased Company) or agree to make any changes to or restriction on, or other impairment of Purchaser’s or its Affiliates’ (including, after the Closing, any Purchased Company’s) ability to own, operate or exercise rights in respect of, such assets, licenses, operations, rights, product lines, business or interests therein.

(d) The Sellers, the Company and Purchaser will cooperate in connection with the antitrust defense of the Transactions in any investigation or litigation by, or negotiations with, any Governmental Authority or other Person relating to the Transactions or regulatory filings under applicable Antitrust Laws; provided, Purchaser shall make all strategic and tactical decisions, following consultation with the Company and consideration in good faith of the Company’s views, as to the manner in which to obtain from any Governmental Authority under any applicable Antitrust Laws, any actions or non-actions, consents, approvals, authorizations, clearances or orders required to be obtained by Purchaser or the Company or any of their respective Affiliates in connection with the consummation of the Transactions. Without limiting the foregoing and subject to applicable legal limitations and the instructions of any Governmental Authority, each of the Sellers, the Company and Purchaser agrees to (i) cooperate and consult with each other, (ii) furnish to the other such necessary information and assistance as the other may reasonably request in connection with its preparation of any notifications or filings, (iii) keep each other apprised of the status of matters relating to the completion of the Transactions, including promptly furnishing the other with copies of notices or other material communications received by such Party from, or given by such Party to, any Governmental Authority with respect to the Transactions, (iv) permit the other to review and incorporate the other’s reasonable comments in any material communication to be given by it to any Governmental Authority with respect to obtaining the necessary approvals for the Transactions, and (v) not to participate in any material meeting or discussion, either in person, by telephone or virtually, with any Governmental Authority in connection with the Transactions unless, to the extent not prohibited by such Governmental Authority, it gives the other the opportunity to attend and observe. The Sellers, the Company and Purchaser agree not to enter into any agreement with any Governmental Authority to delay, or otherwise not to consummate as soon as practicable, any of the Transactions except with the prior written consent of the Sellers’ Representative or Purchaser, as the case may be, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld.

(e) During the Pre-Closing Period, none of the Company, any Seller, or Purchaser will, and each such Person will cause such Person’s Affiliates not to, except as contemplated by this Agreement or with the prior written consent of the other Parties, (i) commit to or consummate any transaction or (ii) take any action other than in the ordinary course of business, in each case which is intended to or which would reasonably be expected to materially delay or otherwise materially and adversely affect the ability of any of the Parties to obtain prompt approval or clearance for the Transactions by a Governmental Authority under any Antitrust Law.

49

Section 6.4 Registration Rights. Purchaser, the Company and each Seller agree to take the actions and to be subject to the provisions set forth on Schedule 6.4, the entirety of which is incorporated herein by reference.

Section 6.5 Nasdaq Listing. Prior to the Closing, Purchaser will file a Notification of Listing of Additional Shares (or such other form as may be required by Nasdaq) with Nasdaq with respect to the shares of Purchaser Stock to be issued in connection with the Transactions and those required to be reserved for issuance in connection with the Transactions and will use reasonable best efforts to cause such shares to be approved for listing before the Closing Date.

Section 6.6 Confidentiality

(a) Purchaser and the Company acknowledge and agree to continue to be bound by that certain Mutual Nondisclosure and Nonuse Agreement, dated December 15, 2020, by and between the Company and Purchaser (the “Confidentiality Agreement”), the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference. Each Seller agrees that such Seller shall be bound by the terms and subject to the conditions of the Confidentiality Agreement during the Pre-Closing Period as if such Seller was a party to the Confidentiality Agreement and a Recipient of Confidential Information (each as defined in the Confidentiality Agreement) thereunder. Effective upon the Closing and without any action by any Party, Purchaser’s obligations under the Confidentiality Agreement will terminate with respect to Confidential Information (as defined in the Confidentiality Agreement) to the extent related solely to the Purchased Companies; provided, however, that Purchaser acknowledges that any and all Confidential Information provided to it by the Sellers, the Purchased Companies, their respective Affiliates or any of their respective Representatives will, to the extent concerning the Sellers or any of their respective Affiliates (other than the Purchased Companies), survive the Closing and continue in accordance with the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement.

(b) As a result of the ownership of the Capital Stock of the Purchased Companies and/or service as an employee, officer or director of the Purchased Companies (as applicable) and in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement and contemplation of the consummation of the Transactions, each Seller has had access to (i) confidential or proprietary information and materials of the Purchased Companies (collectively, the “Company Confidential Information”) and (ii) confidential or proprietary information and materials of Purchaser and its Affiliates (collectively, the “Purchaser Confidential Information”). The Sellers’ Representative and each Seller, on behalf of such Seller and its Affiliates, agrees that, from and after the Closing, unless such Person first secures the written consent of Purchaser (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), such Person shall not use for himself, itself or anyone else, and shall not disclose to others, any Company Confidential Information or Purchaser Confidential Information, except to the extent such disclosure is required by applicable Law in a proceeding (in which event each such Person shall comply with the terms of Section 6.6(c)). Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the contrary, the foregoing will not prevent (A) disclosure or use of such information that is or becomes

50

publicly known through no fault of Seller or its Affiliates or Representatives, including the Sellers’ Representative, (B) disclosure or use of such information, in each case, as is reasonably necessary in connection with any Tax Return filed by such Seller or such Seller’s Affiliates or (C) disclosure or use of such information, in each case, as is reasonably necessary for such Seller’s (1) performance, enforcement or defense of any rights or obligations hereunder or under any Ancillary Agreement to which such Seller is party or (2) duties as an employee or consultant of Purchaser or any of its Subsidiaries.

(c) In the event that the Sellers’ Representative or a Seller or any of its Affiliates is requested pursuant to or required by applicable Law (including by deposition, interrogatories, subpoenas, civil investigative demand or similar process), in connection with any proceeding, to disclose any Company Confidential Information or Purchaser Confidential Information, such Seller or Affiliate will give Purchaser prompt written notice of such request or requirement so that Purchaser may seek an appropriate protective order or other remedy or waive compliance with the provisions of Section 6.6(b), and will reasonably cooperate with Purchaser to obtain such protective order upon Purchaser’s request and at Purchaser’s expense. If, in the absence of a protective order or the receipt of a waiver hereunder, the Sellers’ Representative or Seller (for itself or on behalf of any of its Affiliates), as applicable, is nonetheless required to disclose Company Confidential Information or Purchaser Confidential Information to or at the direction of any Governmental Authority, such Person may disclose only that portion of such Company Confidential Information or Purchaser Confidential Information, as applicable, that such Person is advised by counsel is reasonably necessary to properly respond to the applicable requirement and will exercise commercially reasonable efforts (at Purchaser’s expense) to obtain assurances that confidential treatment will be accorded to the Company Confidential Information and Purchaser Confidential Information so disclosed.

Section 6.7 Further Assurances. From and after the Closing, as and when requested by any Party, each Party will execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, all such documents and instruments and will take, or cause to be taken, at the requesting Party’s expense, all such further or other actions, as such other Party may reasonably deem necessary or desirable to consummate and give effect to the Transactions, including the Equity Purchase.

Section 6.8 Publicity. The Parties agree that the initial press release to be issued with respect to the execution and delivery of this Agreement shall be in the form mutually agreed upon by Purchaser and the Company. None of Purchaser, the Company or any Seller shall, and each Party shall direct each of its Representatives and cause each of its Affiliates (and each of their respective Representatives) not to, directly or indirectly, (a) issue any press release or other public statement relating to the terms of this Agreement or the Transactions or (b) refer to any other Party directly or indirectly in any media interview (written or otherwise), advertisement, news release, press release or professional or trade publication, whether or not in response to an inquiry, without the prior written approval of the other Party (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), unless to the extent required by applicable Law, in which case such Party shall advise the other Party of any such requirement and the

51

Parties shall use reasonable best efforts to cause a mutually agreeable press release or other public statement to be issued. Notwithstanding anything herein, (i) each of the Parties and their Affiliates may issue press releases or make public announcements (including in any media interview (written or otherwise), advertisement, news release, press release or professional or trade publication) concerning the Transactions that are consistent with previous press releases or public announcements made by Purchaser or the Company in compliance with this Section 6.8 and (ii) Purchaser may make public statements with respect to the anticipated effect of this Agreement and the Transactions on Purchaser’s business and its financial projections, in each case to investors, analysts and financing sources, including on its periodic earnings calls, in any “road show,” and in any public disclosure as Purchaser may reasonably determine is required by the SEC, FINRA or other Governmental Authority.

Section 6.9 Business Records; Cooperation. Subject to applicable Law, for a period of seven years after the Closing, Purchaser will, upon reasonable request: (a) afford the Sellers and their respective Affiliates and their respective Representatives reasonable access, during normal business hours and upon reasonable advance notice, to the books and records of the Purchased Companies that are possessed by Purchaser immediately following the Closing and relate to the business of the Purchased Companies and (b) permit such Persons to examine and copy such books and records to the extent reasonably requested by such Person, in each case (i) in connection with Tax matters (including financial and Tax audits and Tax contests) and third party litigation and (ii) at the requesting Person’s sole cost and expense; provided that none of the foregoing shall require Purchaser to provide access or otherwise disclose any information if such access or disclosure would reasonably be expected to result in the violation of any applicable confidentiality restrictions, the loss of attorney client, work product or other privilege or the violation of applicable Law. Other than as required by applicable Law, Purchaser will not knowingly destroy or dispose of, or permit the destruction or disposal of, any such books and records for a period of seven years after the Closing without the prior written consent of the Sellers’ Representative. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 6.9 will not apply in the event of any threatened or actual Action between Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and any Seller or its Affiliates, on the other hand.

Section 6.10 Intercompany Accounts. Except as set forth in Section 6.10 of the Company Disclosure Letter, on or prior to the Closing Date, the Company will cause all Affiliate Arrangements to be settled (irrespective of the terms of payment) or terminated and canceled without any further Liability to, or obligation of, the Purchased Companies, from and after the Closing. The Company will provide evidence of such termination and cancellation, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Purchaser, prior to the Closing Date.

Section 6.11 Expenses. All costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions will be paid by the Party incurring such costs and expenses, whether or not the Transactions are consummated, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement.

Section 6.12 Release.

(a) Effective as of the Closing, each Seller, on behalf of himself or itself and each of his or its Seller Associated Parties (the “Seller Releasors”), hereby irrevocably and unconditionally releases, acquits and forever discharges (i) the Purchased Companies, (ii) Purchaser, (iii) each of Purchaser’s past or present Subsidiaries and (iv) the successors and past, present and future assigns, directors, managers, officers, employees, equity holders and partners of the entities identified in clauses “(i)” through “(iii)” of this clause “(a)” (each a “Purchaser Releasee” and, collectively, the “Purchaser Releasees”), of and from any and all Actions, causes of action, damages, accounts, Liabilities and obligations (including attorneys’ fees), whether known or unknown, matured or unmatured, suspected or unsuspected, liquidated or unliquidated, absolute or contingent, direct or derivative, in each case which arise out of, are based upon or are connected with facts or events occurring or in existence at or prior to the Closing (each, a “Seller Released Claim”); provided, however, that in no event shall the foregoing release apply (i) with respect to any obligations of any Purchaser Releasee set forth in this Agreement or in any Ancillary Agreement, (ii) in the case of Fraud (other than Fraud by a Purchased Company), (iii) with respect to any right of such Seller Releasor to indemnification, reimbursement, contribution, payment or advancement of related expenses, in each case, arising under (A) applicable Law, (B) the Organizational Documents of a Purchased Company as in effect on the Effective Date or (C) any insurance policy of a Purchased Company or proceeds thereunder, or (iv) with respect to claims that cannot be released as a matter of applicable Law (each a “Seller Excluded Claim”).

(b) Each Seller represents and warrants, on a several and not joint basis, solely on behalf of such Seller and each of his or its Seller Associated Parties, that (i) such Seller Releasor has not assigned, transferred, conveyed or otherwise disposed of any Seller Released Claim against any of the Purchaser Releasees, and, to such Seller’s knowledge, no other Person has any interest in any of the Seller Released Claims released pursuant to Section 6.12(a) and (ii) no authorization, instruction, consent or approval of any Person is required to be obtained by such Seller or, to such Seller’s knowledge, any of his or its Seller Associated Parties, in connection with the release of the Seller Released Claims hereunder.

(c) Each Seller, on behalf of such Seller and each of his or its Seller Associated Parties, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives and relinquishes any rights and benefits with respect to the Seller Released Claims that any Seller Releasor may have under any statute or common law principle in any jurisdiction which provides that a general release does not extend to claims which the creditor or releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in such creditor’s or releasing party’s favor at the time of executing the release that, if known by such creditor or releasing party, would reasonably have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor or released party. Each Seller understands and acknowledges (for such Seller and each of his or its Seller Associated Parties) that such Seller may discover facts different from, or in addition to, those which such Seller knows or believes to be true with respect to the claims released herein, and agrees that (i) it is the intention of such Seller (on behalf of such Seller and each of his or its Seller Associated Parties) to fully, finally and forever waive, release and relinquish all Seller Released Claims against any Purchaser Releasee (specifically excluding any Seller Excluded Claims) and (ii) the releases contained in this Agreement shall be and remain effective in all respects notwithstanding any subsequent discovery of different or additional facts.

53

(d) For purposes of this Section 6.12, the term “Seller Associated Party” means, with respect to a Seller: (i) such Seller’s predecessors, successors, executors, administrators, trusts, spouse, heirs, estate and Affiliates; (ii) such Seller’s past, present and future assigns; (iii) each Person that such Seller has the power to bind (by such Seller’s acts or signature or over which such Seller directly or indirectly exercises control); (iv) each Person of which such Seller owns, directly or indirectly, at least a majority of the outstanding equity, beneficial, proprietary, ownership or voting interests; and (v) any other Person claiming by, through or under any of the foregoing, other than, in each case, the Purchased Companies.

Section 6.13 Indemnification of Directors and Officers

(a) For a period of six years following the Effective Time, the Purchased Companies shall, and Purchaser shall cause the Purchased Companies to, cause their respective Organizational Documents to contain provisions with respect to indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation that are at least as favorable as the indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation provisions contained in the respective Organizational Documents of the Purchased Companies immediately prior to the Effective Time, and during such six-year period, such provisions shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified in any respect except as and to the extent required by applicable Law.

(b) Prior to the Closing, the Company will purchase and obtain, at Purchaser’s sole cost and expense, a six-year “tail” prepaid policy on the existing policy of the Company’s directors’ and officers’ liability insurance (the “Tail Policy”), covering claims arising from facts or events that occurred at or prior to the Effective Time. The Tail Policy will cover each current or former manager, director and officer of the Purchased Companies, and any person who becomes a manager, director or officer of the Purchased Companies, prior to the Effective Time in an amount and scope at least as favorable as the Company’s existing policies. Purchaser agrees to maintain, or cause to be maintained, the Tail Policy in full force and effect, and to continue to honor the obligations thereunder during the term thereof, provided that Purchaser will not be obligated to pay in excess of 200% of the amount paid by the Company for coverage for its last full fiscal year.

(c) The current and former directors, officers, employees and agents of each Purchased Company entitled to the indemnification, liability limitation, exculpation and insurance set forth in this Section 6.13 are intended to be third-party beneficiaries of this Section 6.13. This Section 6.13 will survive the consummation of the Transactions and will be binding on all successors and assigns of Purchaser.

54

(d) If Purchaser, any Purchased Company or any of their respective successors or assigns, proposes to (i) consolidate with or merge into any other Person and Purchaser or such Purchased Company (as applicable) will not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity in such proposed transaction, or (ii) transfer all or substantially all of its properties and Assets to any Person, then, and in each case, proper provision will be made prior to or concurrently with the consummation of such transaction so that the successors and assigns of Purchaser or such Purchased Company, as the case may be, will, from and after the consummation of such transaction, honor the indemnification and other obligations set forth in this Section 6.13.

(i) timely furnishing, or causing to be furnished, to Purchaser (x) unaudited consolidated balance sheets and related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, statements of members’ equity and statements of cash flows for the Purchased Companies (prepared in accordance with GAAP, in each case, subject to normal year-end adjustments and absence of footnotes) for each fiscal quarter ended on a date that is after June 30, 2021 and at least 61 days before the Closing Date and (y) such other financial and other pertinent information regarding the Purchased Companies as may be reasonably requested by Purchaser to consummate or syndicate any Financing;

(ii) using commercially reasonable efforts to assist Purchaser in the preparation of any pro forma financial information, it being understood that the preparation, content and accuracy of such pro forma financial information shall be Purchaser’s responsibility;

(iii) using commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Purchased Companies’ independent accountants, as reasonably requested by Purchaser, to consent to the use of their audit reports on the financial statements of the Purchased Companies in any materials relating to the Financing or in connection with any filings made with the SEC or pursuant to the Securities Act or the Exchange Act in connection with the Financing and to provide any “comfort letters” (including drafts thereof which such accountants are prepared to issue at the time of pricing and at closing of any offering or placement of the Financing) necessary and reasonably requested by Purchaser in connection with any debt capital markets transaction comprising a part of the Financing; and

(iv) providing, and using commercially reasonable efforts to cause each Seller to provide, at least four Business Days prior to the Closing Date a customary beneficial ownership certificate to the extent required by committed underwriters of any Financing and any other such documentation and other information regarding the Purchased Companies and the Sellers necessary for such financing sources to comply with applicable “beneficial ownership”, “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations including the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 and the requirements of 31 C.F.R § 1010.230, in each case to the extent requested by Purchaser at least ten Business Days prior to the anticipated Closing Date.

provided, however, that: (A) no such cooperation shall be required to the extent it would (1) unreasonably disrupt the conduct of the Purchased Companies’ business, (2) require the Purchased Companies or Sellers to incur any fees, expenses or other liability prior to the Closing for which they are not promptly reimbursed or simultaneously indemnified, (3) be reasonably expected to cause any manager, director, officer or employee of the Purchased Companies or any Seller to incur any personal liability, (4)

58

require the Company, any Seller or the Sellers’ Representative to waive or amend any terms of this Agreement or other contractual obligation, (5) require the Company, any Seller or the Sellers’ Representative to take or permit the taking of any action that would reasonably be expected to conflict with, result in any violation or breach of, or default (with or without lapse of time, or both) under, any of their respective Organizational Documents (as in effect as of the date hereof), or any applicable Law, or (6) require any Purchased Company or Seller to provide any information for which disclosure is subject to binding confidentiality requirements, prohibited or restricted by applicable Law or which is legally privileged (provided, however, that the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to make appropriate substitute arrangements to permit reasonable disclosure not in violation of Law or to allow for such access or disclosure to the maximum extent that does not result in a loss of such legal privilege); and (B) in no event will any Seller, any Purchased Company or any Persons who are managers, directors or officers of any Purchased Company or any Seller, be required to (1) pass resolutions or consents to approve or authorize the Financing or (2) execute any credit or security documentation or any other definitive agreement (other than customary authorization letters) or provide any indemnity, in each case of this clause (B), prior to the Closing; provided, further, that in no event shall the Company’s breach of any obligations in this Section 6.16 be considered in determining the satisfaction of the condition set forth in Section 8.2(b) unless (x) the Company shall not have attempted in good faith to comply with such obligation in this Section 6.16 and (y) such breach is the primary cause of Purchaser being unable to obtain the proceeds of the Financing prior to the Closing.

(b) Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its Subsidiaries and the Sellers, and their respective Representatives, from and against any and all liabilities or losses suffered or incurred by them in connection with the Financing and any information utilized in connection therewith, except in the event such liabilities or losses arose out of or result from the willful misconduct, intentional misrepresentation, gross negligence, or bad faith of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, any Seller or any of their respective Representatives (collectively, the “Indemnity Exceptions”). Purchaser shall, promptly upon request by the Company, reimburse the Company, its Subsidiaries and each Seller for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs actually incurred by such Person (including those of such Person’s Representatives) in connection with taking action required or requested by Purchaser pursuant to this Section 6.16, other than those arising out of or resulting from the Indemnity Exceptions. For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties acknowledge and agree that the provisions contained in this Section 6.16 represent the sole obligation of the Company, its Subsidiaries, the Sellers and their respective Representatives with respect to cooperation in connection with the arrangement of the Financing and no other provision of this Agreement (including the Exhibits and the Company Disclosure Letter) shall be deemed to expand or modify such obligations.

(c) Purchaser and the Company acknowledge and agree that any entity that will or has committed to provide or arrange, or otherwise has entered into or will enter into agreements with Purchaser or any of its Affiliates in connection with, the Financing, together with their respective Affiliates and Representatives, shall be Purchaser’s “Representative” under and for purposes of the Confidentiality Agreement.

59

Section 6.17 R&W Policy. If Purchaser obtains any representation and warranty insurance policy or policies with respect to the representations and warranties of the Sellers and the Company contained herein, such policy or policies will provide that each insurer thereunder waives any subrogation rights it might have against the Sellers, the Company, their respective Affiliates, and each individual who was a director, manager, trustee, employee, agent or Representative of any of the foregoing except in the case of Fraud, and such subrogation provision will not be amended in any manner adverse to any of the foregoing without the prior written consent of the Sellers’ Representative.

Section 6.18 Specified Closing Matters. During the Pre-Closing Period, the Company shall take the actions set forth on Schedule 6.18.

Section 6.19 Section 16 Matters.

ARTICLE VII

EMPLOYMENT MATTERS

Section 7.1 Continuity of Employment

(a) With respect to each Business Employee who is employed by a Purchased Company as of immediately prior to the Closing and remains employed by Purchaser or one of its Subsidiaries (including a Purchased Company) following the Closing (each, a “Continuing Employee”), for a period ending on the earlier of December 31, 2022 and 12 months following the Closing Date (or, if shorter, during a Continuing Employee’s period of employment), Purchaser will, and will cause its Subsidiaries to, provide to such Continuing Employee a base salary rate or base hourly wage rate that, in each case, is no less than the base salary rate or base hourly wage rate in effect for such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date.

(b) Nothing in this Article VII will limit the Liabilities and obligations of Purchaser and the Company under applicable Law or any applicable Contract.

Section 7.2 Employee Benefit Plans Generally

(a) For a period ending on the earlier of December 31, 2022 and 12 months following the Closing Date (or, if shorter, during a Continuing Employee’s period of employment), Purchaser will provide, or will cause its Subsidiaries to provide, to Continuing Employees defined contribution (401(k)) retirement (other than the

60

nonelective contribution), health and welfare benefits (excluding defined benefit pension benefits, retiree medical benefits, transaction or retention bonuses and equity-based compensation) that are no less favorable in the aggregate than either (as determined by Purchaser) those provided to such Continuing Employees as of immediately prior to Closing or those provided to similarly situated employees of Purchaser from time to time.

(b) Purchaser will credit, or will cause its Subsidiaries to credit, all Continuing Employees for their service with any Purchased Company or any of their respective Affiliates (and any predecessors) immediately prior to the Closing Date for purposes of eligibility and vesting (other than with respect to equity-based awards granted following the Closing Date) under Purchaser’s or its Subsidiaries’ employee benefit plans in which Continuing Employees participate after the Closing (collectively, “Purchaser Plans”), and to determine benefits under any Purchaser Plan that is a vacation, paid time off or severance policy or program where length of service is relevant (but not, for the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of benefit accruals under any defined benefit pension plan), in each case, to the same extent as such service was credited under the comparable Employee Benefit Plans immediately prior to Closing Date and for any other purpose required by applicable Law; provided, however, that the foregoing will not apply to the extent that its application would result in a duplication of benefits with respect to the same period of service.

(c) Purchaser will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause all Continuing Employees (and their eligible dependents) to be eligible to participate in a Purchaser Plan that is a group health plan without being subject to any eligibility waiting periods or any restrictions or limitations for pre-existing conditions, except to the extent any such person has not satisfied any corresponding applicable waiting period or such restrictions or limitations applicable to such Person under the comparable Employee Benefit Plans immediately prior to the Closing.

Section 7.3 401(k) Plan. Unless Purchaser directs the Company otherwise in writing no later than five Business Days prior to the Effective Time, the Purchased Companies shall take actions necessary to terminate, effective at least one day prior to the Closing Date, any Employee Benefit Plan that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(k) of the Code (each, a “401(k) Plan”). Prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall provide Purchaser with executed resolutions of the Company Board of Managers (a) effecting such termination, (b) providing for the contribution and allocation of the non-elective contribution amount accrued on the books of the Company for the plan year which includes the Closing Date (which such amount, for the avoidance of doubt, will not be a Transaction Expense), and (c) providing for the amendment of any such 401(k) Plan to the extent necessary to comply with all applicable Laws as of the termination date. Purchaser shall be entitled to advanced review and approval of the resolutions effecting the termination, providing for the contribution and allocation of the non-elective contribution, and providing for any required amendment of any 401(k) Plan, which review and approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

61

Section 7.4 Communications. Prior to the Closing, the Company shall not (and the Company shall ensure that none of the Purchased Companies nor any Representative thereof) issue any formal or informal written or verbal communication (including any electronic communication) regarding post-Closing employee benefit plans and compensation in connection with this Agreement or the Transactions (collectively, “Employment Matters” and any such communications regarding Employment Matters, “Employment Communications”) without the prior written approval of Purchaser (including approval via electronic communication) (with such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided, that the Company (and the other Purchased Companies and Representatives thereof) may issue Employment Communications (whether written, verbal or electronic) without Purchaser’s prior approval if such Employment Communications (a) are not intended for mass distribution to Business Employees (i.e., distribution to more than five percent of the total number of Business Employees) and (b) are consistent with (i) the mutually agreed-upon approach to communications between the Parties relating to Employment Matters or (ii) prior press releases, public announcements, public statements or other public disclosures made by the Parties in compliance with this Agreement.

Section 7.5 Cooperation. Subject to applicable Law, during the period commencing on the date of this Agreement and ending on the Closing Date, the Purchased Companies shall promptly provide Purchaser with information related to the Service Providers and Employee Benefit Plans that is reasonably requested by Purchaser and necessary or desirable for Purchaser to fulfill its obligations under this Article VII or otherwise integrate the Service Providers and Employee Benefit Plans into a combined business with Purchaser at or following the Closing, including but not limited to, providing Purchaser with copies of or access to Form I-9s for all present Business Employees, vacation accruals and paid time off balances for Business Employees, reporting structures for Business Employees (and other Business Employee organization charts), and other documentation and information regarding Employee Benefit Plans.

Section 7.6 Retention Pool.

(a) Following the Closing, Purchaser will establish a retention pool (the “Retention Pool”) in an aggregate amount equal to the sum of $200,000,000 plus the Assumed Award Value that will be granted to certain Continuing Employees (collectively, “Eligible Participants”) in the form of restricted stock units of Purchaser (“Purchaser RSUs”), which Purchaser RSUs will be granted following the Closing in accordance with Purchaser’s regular grant practices (and in no event later than 60 days following the Closing Date).

(b) The portion of the Retention Pool equal to the Assumed Award Value (such portion of the Retention Pool the “Assumed Award Pool”) will be allocated among certain of the Eligible Participants as communicated in writing by the Company to Purchaser no later than five Business Days prior to the Closing (which such allocation will be (i) made after reasonable consultation with Purchaser and the Company’s good faith consideration of any comments of Purchaser and (ii) consistent in all material respects with the Agreed Bonus Allocation (as defined on Schedule 7.6(b)), and subject to such vesting and other terms and conditions set forth on Schedule 7.6(b).

62

(c) $200,000,000 of the Retention Pool (such portion of the Retention Pool the “Fixed Retention Pool”) will be allocated among certain of the Eligible Participants as set forth on Schedule 7.6(c) with the remainder of the Fixed Retention Pool allocated among certain Eligible Participants in such amounts as determined by Purchaser, in each case after reasonable consultation with the Sellers’ Representative, and subject to such vesting and other terms and conditions as set forth on Schedule 7.6(c).

(d) For purposes of the Fixed Retention Pool, the value of any Purchaser RSUs will be determined based on the closing price of a share of Purchaser Stock on Nasdaq on the grant date and rounding down to the nearest whole share. For purposes of the Assumed Award Pool, the value of any Purchaser RSUs will be determined based on the Purchaser Stock Price and rounding down to the nearest whole share.

(e) Purchaser, the Company, and the Sellers’ Representative shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to take the actions set forth in clause (i) of Schedule 7.6(b).

Section 7.7 Transaction Bonuses. As soon as administratively practicable following the Closing (but no later than the second regular payroll period immediately following the Closing), the Company, through its payroll system and less applicable Tax withholding, will pay the Transaction Bonuses (as defined on Schedule 7.7) to the Business Employees and in the allocated amounts communicated in writing by the Company to Purchaser no later than five Business Days prior to the Closing, which allocated amounts will be (a) determined after reasonable consultation with Purchaser and the Company’s good faith consideration of any comments of Purchaser and (b) consistent in all material respects with the Agreed Bonus Allocation.

Section 7.8 Treatment of Phantom Equity Plan. Within thirty (30) days prior to the Closing, and in any event effective no later than immediately prior to the Closing, the Company shall (a) take all necessary or desirable actions, including adopting resolutions and providing any required notices and obtaining any required consents (in each case, if any), to terminate and liquidate the Phantom Equity Plan and all award agreements and Phantom Share Awards thereunder (together with any other agreements, methods, programs and arrangements required to be treated with such Phantom Equity Plan and award agreements thereunder as a single plan under Treasury Regulation Section 409A-1(c)(2)) in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(ix)(B), such that no Person has any further right or interest thereunder or therein from and after the Closing (other than the right to receive the Phantom Equity Payments, as applicable, in accordance with this Section 7.8), and (b) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain from each Person entitled to any Phantom Equity Payment (as defined below) an executed release and waiver of claims with respect to such Person’s Phantom Share Award(s) and the Phantom Equity Plan in a form approved by Purchaser, which approval shall not be unreasonably conditioned, delayed or withheld. All obligations arising under or in connection with the Phantom Equity Plan (or any outstanding Phantom Share Award thereunder) shall, subject to applicable Tax withholdings and deductions, be paid in full to the individuals and in approximately the amounts set forth on Section 7.8 of the Company Disclosure Letter (which Section 7.8 of the Company Disclosure Letter shall be updated by the Sellers’ Representative to include the final amounts no later than one day prior to the Closing Date) (the “Phantom Equity Payments”) as soon as administratively practicable following the Closing (but no later than the second regular payroll period immediately following the Closing) through a Purchased Company’s payroll system. Any notices, resolutions, consents and other written materials contemplated by this Section 7.8 shall be subject to Purchaser’s advance review and approval, which shall not be unreasonably conditioned, delayed or withheld.

63

Section 7.9 No Third Party Rights. The Company and Purchaser acknowledge and agree that all provisions contained in this Agreement are included for the sole benefit of the respective Parties hereto. Nothing in this Agreement shall, or shall be construed so as to: (a) prevent or restrict in any way the right of Purchaser or its Affiliates to terminate, reassign, promote or demote any Service Provider (or to cause any of the foregoing actions) at any time, or to change (or cause the change of) the title, powers, duties, responsibilities, functions, locations, compensation, benefits or terms of service of any such Service Providers; (b) create any third-party rights in any such current or former Service Provider (or any beneficiaries or dependents thereof); (c) constitute an amendment or modification of any Employee Benefit Plan; or (d) obligate any Purchased Company, Purchaser or any Affiliates thereof to adopt or maintain any Employee Benefit Plan or other compensatory or benefits arrangement at any time after the Closing or prevent any Purchased Company, Purchaser or any Affiliates thereof from modifying or terminating any Employee Benefit Plan or any other compensatory or benefits arrangement at any time after the Closing.

Section 7.10 Code Section 280G. If any Person who is, with respect to any Purchased Company or any of its Affiliates, a “disqualified individual” (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code) (each, a “Disqualified Individual”), has received or may receive any payment(s) and/or benefit(s) that could reasonably be expected to constitute “parachute payments” (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code) in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, then as soon as reasonably practicable following the date of this Agreement, but in no event less than five (5) Business Days prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall (a) obtain and deliver to Purchaser, prior to the initiation of the stockholder approval procedure under clause (b), a waiver, in a form reviewed and approved by Purchaser (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), from each Disqualified Individual of such Disqualified Individual’s rights to all such payments or benefits applicable to such Disqualified Individual (the “Waived Parachute Payments”) so that all remaining payments and/or benefits applicable to such Disqualified Individual shall not be deemed to be “excess parachute payments” (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code) and (c) as soon as practicable following delivery of such waivers to Purchaser, prepare and distribute to its equity holders a disclosure statement providing adequate disclosure (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code) of all potential “parachute payments” and submit to the equity holders of the Company for approval (in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser) by such number of equity holders, in a manner that meets the requirements of Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code, any payments and/or benefits that Purchaser and the Company reasonably determine may separately or in the aggregate, constitute “parachute payments,” such that, if approved by the requisite majority of equity holders of the Company, such payments and benefits shall not be deemed to be “parachute payments” under Section 280G of the Code (the foregoing actions, a “Section 280G

64

Vote”). Prior to the Closing, if a Section 280G Vote is required, the Company shall deliver to Purchaser evidence reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser, (i) that a Section 280G Vote was solicited in conformance with Section 280G of the Code, and the requisite Company Stockholder approval was obtained with respect to any payments and/or benefits that were subject to the Company Stockholder vote (the “Section 280G Approval”) or (ii) that the Section 280G Approval was not obtained and as a consequence, pursuant to the waivers described in clause (a) of the preceding sentence, such “parachute payments” shall not be made or provided. The form of the waiver, the disclosure statement, any other materials to be submitted to the equity holders of the Company in connection with the Section 280G Vote and the calculations related to the foregoing shall be subject to advance review and approval by Purchaser, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

ARTICLE X

TAX MATTERS

Section 10.1 Preparation and Filing of Pass-Through Tax Returns. The Sellers will timely prepare and file or will cause to be timely prepared and filed (giving effect to any validly obtained extensions) any Pass-Through Income Tax Return required to be filed by any Purchased Company for any taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date (such Tax Returns, the “Seller Returns”). All such Seller Returns will be prepared and filed in a manner consistent with past practice of the Purchased Companies unless otherwise required by Law. The Sellers will provide a copy of each such Seller Return to the Purchaser for its review and comment at least 30 days prior to the due date thereof, and will reflect all reasonable comments provided by Purchaser in advance of the due date for the filing of such Seller Return relating to matters that could affect the Liability for Taxes of Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including, after the Closing, any Purchased Company). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties agree that an election under Section 754 of the Code and any corresponding provision of state and local Tax Law shall be made for the Company for the taxable year that includes the Closing Date.

Section 10.2 Transaction Deductions. The Sellers will be entitled to report any deductions relating to the payment of Transaction Expenses and the repayment of any Indebtedness (in each case, as finally determined pursuant to Section 1.4, and excluding any amounts, grants, awards or payments in connection with the Assumed Award Pool) including for this purpose amounts that would have been included in Closing Transaction Expenses or Closing Indebtedness but for their payment by the Sellers or any of their respective Affiliates (including the Purchased Companies) prior to the Reference Time, on the Seller Returns for the Tax period ending on the Closing Date to the extent permitted by Law (at least a “more likely than not” level). To the extent any such deductions (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any deductions relating to the Assumed Award Pool or any Purchaser RSUs issued with respect thereto) are instead reported on the income Tax Returns of Purchaser or any Affiliate of Purchaser (including any Purchased Company) for any taxable period or portion thereof beginning after the Closing Date and such deductions result in a reduction in income Taxes otherwise payable by Purchaser and its Affiliates (including the Purchased Companies) or a refund (or credit in lieu) of Taxes of Purchaser and its Affiliates (including the Purchased Companies), in any case, determined on a “with and without” basis (taking into account any additional Taxes imposed as a result of the obtaining and receipt of the relevant Tax reduction, refund or credit) (a “Tax Reduction”), Purchaser will pay to the Sellers an amount equal to such Tax Reduction within 30 days after receipt or realization thereof. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 10.2 shall not confer upon the Sellers any right of review or access to the Tax Returns and Tax work papers of Purchaser or its Affiliates for any Tax period.

The Parties agree that for U.S. federal (and all applicable state and local) income Tax purposes, Purchaser’s acquisition of the Purchased Equity will be treated in accordance with IRS Revenue Ruling 99-6, Situation 2, as to the Purchaser, as a taxable purchase of all of the assets of the Company (and each Subsidiary thereof that is classified as a disregarded entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes), and, as to the Sellers, as a sale of partnership interests in the Company.

(b) Purchase Price Allocation. The Purchase Price (plus any other amounts required to be taken into account as consideration for U.S. federal income tax purposes) will be allocated among the assets of the Company (and each Subsidiary thereof that is classified as a disregarded entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes) in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code and the applicable Treasury Regulations thereunder and in a manner consistent with the allocation methodology set forth in Section 10.8(b) of the Company Disclosure Letter (the “Allocation Methodology”).

will deliver to the Sellers’ Representative a statement setting forth the proposed allocation (the “Proposed Allocation”). If the Sellers’ Representative has any objection to the Proposed Allocation, the Sellers’ Representative will deliver to the Purchaser a statement setting forth its objections and suggested adjustments within twenty days after the delivery of the Proposed Allocation. The Sellers’ Representative and the Purchaser will negotiate in good faith to resolve any such objection. If they do not reach a final resolution within twenty days following the Purchaser’s receipt of notice of an objection from the Sellers’ Representative, the Parties may file their respective Tax Returns as each such Party determines appropriate in accordance with the Allocation Methodology. If the Sellers’ Representative has no objection to the Proposed Allocation or if the Sellers’ Representative and Purchaser reach a final resolution with respect to any objections, the Proposed Allocation shall become final (as so finalized, the “Allocation”), and the Allocation will be binding upon the Sellers, the Purchaser, and the Purchased Companies for all income Tax reporting purposes. The Parties agree to file all Tax Returns in a manner consistent with the Tax treatment described in Section 10.8(a) and, if applicable, the Allocation.

Section 13.9 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple original, PDF or facsimile counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original, and all of which taken together will be considered one and the same agreement. In the event that any signature to this Agreement or any agreement or certificate delivered pursuant hereto, or any amendment thereof, is delivered by facsimile transmission or by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file, such signature will create a valid and binding obligation of the Party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or “.pdf” signature page were an original thereof. No Party will raise the use of a facsimile machine or e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file to deliver any such signature page or the fact that such signature was transmitted or communicated through the use of a facsimile machine or e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file as a defense to the formation or enforceability of a contract and each Party forever waives any such defense.

Section 13.10 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application of any such provision to any Person or circumstance is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect by the Accounting Referee or a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect any other provision of this Agreement.

Section 13.11 Governing Law; Consent to Exclusive Jurisdiction

(a) The interpretation and construction of this Agreement, the Transactions, the Ancillary Agreements and all matters and disputes relating to this Agreement or the Transactions (whether based on contract, tort, or otherwise), will be governed by the Laws of the State of Delaware applicable to contracts made and to be performed entirely within the State of Delaware without giving effect to any conflict of Law provisions thereof.

(b) Each of the Parties agrees that any Action with respect to this Agreement may be brought in the federal and state courts located in the City of Wilmington in the State of Delaware, and any appellate court from any appeal thereof. By execution and delivery of this Agreement, each Party irrevocably submits itself in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts in any Action arising out of this Agreement. Each of the Parties irrevocably waives any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any of the aforesaid Actions arising out of or in connection with this Agreement brought in the courts referred to in the preceding sentence. Each Party consents to

95

process being served in any such Action by the mailing of a copy thereof to the address (set forth in Section 13.7) below its name and agrees that such service upon receipt will constitute good and sufficient service of process or notice thereof. Nothing in this paragraph will affect or eliminate any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by Law.

Section 13.12 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT IRREVOCABLY WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CAUSE OF ACTION, CLAIM, COUNTERCLAIM OR CROSS-COMPLAINT IN ANY ACTION OR OTHER PROCEEDING BROUGHT BY ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY OR PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT WITH RESPECT TO ANY MATTER ARISING OUT OF, OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY PORTION OF THIS AGREEMENT, WHETHER BASED UPON CONTRACTUAL, STATUTORY, TORTIOUS OR OTHER THEORIES OF LIABILITY. EACH PARTY REPRESENTS THAT IT HAS CONSULTED WITH COUNSEL REGARDING THE MEANING AND EFFECT OF THE FOREGOING WAIVER OF ITS RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL.

Section 13.13 Remedies; Specific Performance

(a) Except to the extent set forth otherwise in this Agreement, all remedies under this Agreement expressly conferred upon a Party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by Law or equity upon such Party, and the exercise by a Party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy.

(b) Each Party agrees that irreparable damage would occur, and the Parties would not have an adequate remedy at law if any provision of this Agreement is not performed in accordance with its specific terms or is otherwise breached. Accordingly, each Party agrees that the other Parties will be entitled to injunctive relief from time to time to prevent breaches of the provisions of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, in each case (i) without the requirement of posting any bond or other indemnity and (ii) in addition to any other remedy to which it may be entitled at law or in equity. Furthermore, each Party agrees not to raise any objections to the availability of the equitable remedy of specific performance to prevent or restrain breaches of this Agreement, and to specifically enforce the terms of this Agreement to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of such Party under this Agreement; provided that each Party may argue that no breach has occurred.

Section 13.14 Non-Recourse. This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any Action based upon, arising out of, or related to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement, or the Transactions, may only be brought against the named parties to this Agreement and then only with respect to the specific obligations set forth herein with respect to the named parties to this Agreement (in all cases, as limited by Article IX). No Person who is not a named party to this Agreement, including any past, present or future director, officer, employee,

96

incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, Affiliate, agent, trustee, attorney or representative of the Company, the Sellers or any of their respective Affiliates, will have or be subject to any Liability (whether in contract or in tort) to Purchaser or any other Person resulting from (nor will Purchaser have any claim with respect to) (a) the distribution to Purchaser, or Purchaser’s use of, or reliance on, any information, documents, projections, forecasts or other material made available to Purchaser in data rooms (electronic or otherwise), confidential information memoranda or management presentations in expectation of, or in connection with, the Transactions, or (b) any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, the sale and purchase of the Company, including any alleged non-disclosure or misrepresentations made by any such Persons, in each case, regardless of the legal theory under which such Liability may be sought to be imposed, whether sounding in contract or tort, or whether at law or in equity, or otherwise; and each Party waives and releases all such Liabilities against any such Persons.

Section 13.15 Legal Representation. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that, as to all communications between all counsel for the Sellers, the Company or their respective Affiliates (including King & Spalding LLP and McDermott Will & Emery LLP) and any Seller, the Company or any of its Affiliates (including, before the Closing, the Purchased Companies) that relate in any way to this Agreement or the Transactions (collectively, the “Privileged Communications”), the attorney-client privilege and the expectation of client confidence with respect to the Privileged Communications belongs to the Sellers and may be controlled by the Sellers and will not pass to or be claimed by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including, following the Closing, the Purchased Companies). The Privileged Communications are the property of the Sellers, and from and after the Closing, neither Purchaser nor any of its Affiliates (including, following the Closing, the Purchased Companies) will seek to obtain such communications, whether by seeking a waiver of the attorney-client privilege or through other means. Purchaser, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, further acknowledges and agrees that no such Person may use or rely on any of the Privileged Communications in any action against or involving any of the Sellers or any of their respective Affiliates after the Closing. The Privileged Communications may be used by the Sellers or any of their respective Affiliates in connection with any dispute that relates to this Agreement or the Transactions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a dispute arises between Purchaser or any of its Affiliates and a third party (other than a Party to this Agreement or any of such Party’s Affiliates) after the Closing, Purchaser and its Affiliates may assert the attorney-client privilege to prevent disclosure of confidential communications by counsel to such third party; provided, that neither Purchaser nor any of its Affiliates may waive such privilege without the prior written consent of the Sellers’ Representative (not to be unreasonably withheld).
