At the Closing, Buyer shall pay, or cause to be paid, on behalf of the Acquired Companies, all amounts set forth in the Estimated Statement required to be paid under the payoff letters delivered pursuant to Section 7.17 in order to fully discharge the Debt owed to the Persons thereunder, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts designated in such payoff letters.

(e)Payments in respect of Expense Reserve Holdback Amount. At the Closing, Buyer shall pay, or cause to be paid, to the Expense Reserve Holdback Account an amount equal to the Expense Reserve Holdback Amount.

3.2 Adjustment to Closing Per Share Price.

(a)Not later than three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall provide Buyer with a written statement (the “Estimated Statement”) reflecting the Company’s good faith estimate of (i) Closing Cash (the “Estimated Cash”); (ii) Closing Working Capital (the “Estimated Working Capital”); (iii) Closing Debt (the “Estimated Debt”); and (iv) Closing Transaction Expenses (the “Estimated Transaction Expenses”), in each case, based upon the accounting books and records of the Acquired Companies and in accordance with the definitions contained in this Agreement and the Agreed Principles. The Estimated Statement shall be binding on the Company, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, for purposes of this Section 3.2(a) and shall be used to determine the Closing Per Share Price. Not later than one (1) Business Day after receipt of the Estimated Statement, Buyer shall provide to the Shareholder

Strictly Confidential

Representative a detailed funds flow memorandum in Excel format (including all underlying calculations, formulas and amounts therein) setting forth all payments to be made by or on behalf of the parties hereto at Closing in accordance with this Agreement.

(b)As promptly as practicable, but no later than sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall cause to be prepared and delivered to the Shareholder Representative a statement (the “Closing Statement”) setting forth: (i) Closing Cash; (ii) Closing Working Capital; (iii) Closing Debt; and (iv) Closing Transaction Expenses, together, in each case, with reasonable underlying documentation supporting each such calculation. The Closing Statement, and the components thereof, shall be prepared based upon the books and records of the Acquired Companies and in accordance with the definitions contained in this Agreement (including Closing Cash, Closing Working Capital, Closing Debt and Closing Transaction Expenses) and the Agreed Principles. The Closing Statement shall be prepared in accordance with the Agreed Principles. If Buyer fails to timely deliver the Closing Statement within the sixty (60)-day period described in this Section 3.2(b), then the Estimated Statement shall be conclusive, final and binding on all parties. The parties hereto agree that the purpose of determining Closing Cash, Closing Working Capital, Closing Debt and Closing Transaction Expenses and the related Merger Consideration adjustment contemplated by this Section 3.2(b) is to measure the amount of Closing Cash, Closing Working Capital, Closing Debt and Closing Transaction Expenses as compared to the Company’s estimates prepared pursuant to Section 3.2(a), and such processes are not intended to (i) permit the introduction of different or new accounting methods, policies, principles, practices, procedures, classifications or estimation methodologies for the purpose of preparing Closing Cash, Closing Working Capital, Closing Debt and Closing Transaction Expenses or (ii) adjust for errors or omissions that may be found with respect to the Financial Statements or any inconsistencies between the Financial Statements and GAAP.

(c)Until the Closing Statement is finally determined in accordance with this Section 3.2, the Shareholder Representative and its advisors shall have the right, upon reasonable notice to the Company, to reasonable access to the Company’s books and records and appropriate employees at the Acquired Companies as the Shareholder Representative shall reasonably request in order to review the Closing Statement, in each case, so as to not unreasonably interfere with the normal business operations of the Acquired Companies. The Closing Statement (and the computation of Closing Cash, Closing Working Capital, Closing Debt and Closing Transaction Expenses) delivered by Buyer to the Shareholder Representative shall be conclusive and binding on all parties unless the Shareholder Representative, prior to the forty-fifth (45th) day following receipt of the Closing Statement, delivers a notice to Buyer stating that the Shareholder Representative disagrees with such calculation and specifying in reasonable detail those items as to which the Shareholder Representative disagrees, the dollar amount of such disagreement and the basis therefor (any such notice, a “Dispute Notice”). The Shareholder Representative shall be deemed to have agreed with all other items contained in the Closing Statement, and the calculation of Closing Cash, Closing Working Capital, Closing Debt or Closing Transaction Expenses, as applicable, delivered pursuant to Section 3.2(b) that are not the subject of a Dispute Notice.

(d)If a Dispute Notice is duly delivered pursuant to Section 3.2(c), the Shareholder Representative and Buyer shall, during the fifteen (15) days following such delivery, consult in good faith on the disputed items in order to determine, as may be required, the amount of Closing Cash, Closing Working Capital, Closing Debt and Closing Transaction Expenses, as

Strictly Confidential

applicable. If during such period, the Shareholder Representative and Buyer are unable to reach such agreement, they shall promptly thereafter cause RSM US LLP or, if such accounting firm is unwilling or unable to serve, such other nationally recognized independent accounting firm on which the Shareholder Representative and Buyer mutually agree, which agreement shall not be unreasonably withheld, as the case may be (the “Neutral Accountant”), to review this Agreement and the disputed items (which have not been resolved in good faith between the parties) for the purpose of calculating Closing Cash, Closing Working Capital, Closing Debt and Closing Transaction Expenses, as applicable (it being understood that in making such calculation, the Neutral Accountant shall be functioning as an expert and not as an arbitrator). Each party agrees to execute, if requested by the Neutral Accountant, a reasonable engagement letter. No party hereto shall have any ex-parte communication with the Neutral Accountant relating to its services under or in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. Buyer and the Shareholder Representative shall reasonably cooperate with the Neutral Accountant and promptly provide, and Buyer shall cause the Company to provide, all documents and information reasonably requested by the Neutral Accountant; provided that copies of all such documents and information are concurrently furnished to the other party. In making such calculation, the Neutral Accountant shall consider only those items in the Closing Statement, and the Shareholder Representative’s calculation of Closing Cash, Closing Working Capital, Closing Debt or Closing Transaction Expenses, as the case may be, as to which the Shareholder Representative has disagreed in its Dispute Notice duly delivered pursuant to Section 3.2(c) and in accordance with the definitions provided in this Agreement. The Neutral Accountant shall resolve each item of disagreement based solely on the supporting materials provided by the each party and not by independent review. The Neutral Accountant’s determination on each item in dispute shall not be greater than the greater value for such item claimed by either the Shareholder Representative in the Dispute Notice or Buyer in the Closing Statement or less than the lower value for such item claimed by either the Shareholder Representative in the Dispute Notice or Buyer in the Closing Statement. The Shareholder Representative and Buyer shall direct the Neutral Accountant to deliver to the Shareholder Representative and Buyer, as promptly as practicable (but in any case no later than thirty (30) days from the date of its engagement), a report setting forth such calculation. Such report shall be final and binding upon the Shareholder Representative and Buyer. The Neutral Accountant will determine the allocation of the cost of its review and report based on the inverse of the percentage its determination (before such allocation) bears to the total amount of the total items in dispute as originally submitted to Neutral Accountant. For example, should the items in dispute total in amount to $1,000 and the Neutral Accountant awards $600 in favor of the Shareholder Representative’s position, sixty percent (60%) of the costs of its review would be borne by Buyer and forty percent (40%) of the costs would be borne by Seller out of the Expense Reserve Holdback Amount. For the avoidance of doubt, the Neutral Accountant’s fees and expenses payable by Buyer (if any), shall be paid to the Neutral Accountant directly by Buyer, and the Neutral Accountant’s fees and expenses payable by the Shareholder Representative (if any), shall be paid to the Neutral Accountant directly from the Expense Reserve Holdback Amount.

(e)The Closing Cash, Closing Debt, Closing Transaction Expenses and Closing Working Capital, as finally determined in accordance with Sections 3.2(b)-(d) shall be the “Final Cash”, “Final Debt”, “Final Transaction Expenses” and “Final Working Capital”, respectively. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall (i) the Final Cash, Final Working Capital is more than the Shareholder Representative’s calculation of Closing Cash or Closing Working Capital, as applicable, delivered pursuant to Section 3.2(c) or less than Buyer’s

Strictly Confidential

calculation of Closing Cash or Closing Working Capital, as applicable, delivered pursuant to Section 3.2(b); and (ii) the Final Debt or Final Transaction Expenses be more than Buyer’s calculation of Closing Debt or Closing Transaction Expenses, as applicable, delivered pursuant to Section 3.2(b) or less than Shareholder Representative’s calculation of Closing Debt or Closing Transaction Expenses, as applicable, delivered pursuant to Section 3.2(c).

(f)The “Purchase Price Adjustment” will be an amount, which may be positive or negative, equal to (i) the Final Cash Adjustment, plus (ii) the Final Working Capital Adjustment, minus (iii) the Final Debt Adjustment, minus (iv) the Final Transaction Expenses Adjustment. If the Purchase Price Adjustment is a positive number (the “Net Positive Purchase Price Adjustment Amount”), Buyer shall pay, or cause to be paid, an amount equal to the lesser of (x) the Adjustment Escrow Amount; and (y) the Net Positive Purchase Price Adjustment Amount as an adjustment to the dollar amount of the aggregate Closing Per Share Price in cash to the Shareholder Representative, for the benefit of Seller. If the Purchase Price Adjustment is a negative number (the absolute value of such number, the “Net Negative Purchase Price Adjustment Amount”), Buyer shall be entitled to receive a payment in cash out of the Adjustment Escrow Account in an amount equal to the lesser of (A) the funds in the Adjustment Escrow Account; and (ii) the Net Negative Purchase Price Adjustment Amount, and Buyer and the Shareholder Representative shall jointly in writing instruct the Escrow Agent to make a payment to Buyer out of the Adjustment Escrow Account in an amount equal to the lesser of clauses (A) and (B) of this sentence. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that any Net Negative Purchase Price Adjustment Amount shall be satisfied solely and exclusively out of the Adjustment Escrow Account, and none of the Company or Seller shall have any obligation or liability to Buyer for any Net Negative Purchase Price Adjustment Amount that is in excess of the funds in the Adjustment Escrow Account. If (1) there is a Net Positive Purchase Price Adjustment Amount; or (2) the funds in the Adjustment Escrow Account is greater than the Net Negative Purchase Price Adjustment Amount, then Buyer and the Shareholder Representative shall jointly instruct in writing the Escrow Agent to make a payment out of the Adjustment Escrow Account in an amount equal to (x) in the event of a Net Positive Purchase Price Adjustment Amount, all amounts in the Adjustment Escrow Account; or (y) in the event the funds in the Adjustment Escrow Account are greater than the Net Negative Purchase Price Adjustment Amount, the difference between all amounts in the Adjustment Escrow Account and the Net Negative Purchase Price Adjustment Amount, in each case, to the Shareholder Representative, for the benefit of Seller. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that the Purchase Price Adjustment equals zero, then Buyer and the Shareholder Representative shall jointly in writing instruct the Escrow Agent to make a payment equal to the funds in the Adjustment Escrow Account to the Shareholder Representative, for the benefit of Seller.

(g)Any payment pursuant to Section 3.2(e) shall be made by Buyer or the Escrow Agent, as the case may be, at a mutually convenient time and place within five (5) Business Days after the Purchase Price Adjustment (and the components thereof) has been finally determined, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of Buyer, in the event such payment is to be made by the Escrow Agent, or to the account of the Shareholder Representative, for the benefit of the Seller, in the event such payment is to be made by Buyer and/or to the extent that there is any amount remaining in the Adjustment Escrow Account following payment to Buyer of the amounts to be paid pursuant to Section 3.2(f).

Strictly Confidential

(h)Promptly following receipt by the Shareholder Representative of payment of the Net Positive Purchase Price Adjustment Amount, if any, and/or any amount paid from the Adjustment Escrow Amount pursuant to this Section 3.2, the Shareholder Representative shall pay to Seller, with respect to each Share outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time held by Seller, an amount equal to the sum of (A) the Net Positive Purchase Price Adjustment Amount Per Share, if any; and (B) the Adjustment Escrow Release Amount Per Share, if any.

(i)To the extent the Vendors (as such term is defined in the Maiden Acquisition Agreements) remit any amount to any Acquired Company in accordance with the terms of the Maiden Acquisition Agreements after the Closing, all such amounts shall, within two (2) Business Days thereof, be remitted to the Shareholder Representative in accordance with the wire instructions provided by the Shareholder Representative on behalf of, and for further distribution to, the Seller.

3.3Withholding. Buyer, the Company and their respective Affiliates shall be entitled to deduct and withhold (without duplication) from any and all payments made under this Agreement such amounts that are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payments under the Code or under any provisions of state, local or foreign Tax Law; provided, that, except with respect to payments in the nature of compensation to be made to current or former directors, officers, employees and consultants, each of Buyer, the Company, and their respective Affiliates, as applicable, shall provide the applicable payee with a written notice of such party’s intention to withhold at least five (5) Business Days prior to any such withholding, and each of the applicable parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize any such Taxes (including by providing sufficient opportunity for the applicable payee to provide any relevant forms or other documentation). To the extent that such amounts are so withheld and timely paid over to the proper Taxing Authority, such withheld and deducted amounts will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the recipient in respect of which such deduction or withholding was made.

7.5 Confidentiality.

(a)Each of Buyer and Merger Sub acknowledges that the information provided to them in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions is subject to the terms of the Confidentiality and Non-Disclosure Agreement between Advent International Corporation and TopBuild Corp. dated May 18, 2021 and the Clean Team Confidentiality Agreement between Advent International Corporation and TopBuild Corp. dated May 18, 2021, as amended by that first amendment thereto, dated July 13, 2021 (together, the “Confidentiality Agreements”), the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference.

(b)Seller hereby agrees with Buyer that Seller and its Representatives will not, and that Seller will cause its controlled Affiliates not to, at any time on or after the Closing Date for a period of five (5) years, directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of Buyer, disclose or use, any confidential or proprietary information involving or relating to the Acquired

Strictly Confidential

Companies, including (i) customer and supplier information, including lists of names and addresses of customers and suppliers of any Acquired Company or its Affiliates as of the Closing Date; (ii) written business plans and strategies, compensation plans, compensation information, sales plans and strategies, pricing and other terms applicable to transactions between existing and prospective customers, suppliers or business associates; (iii) proprietary market research and databases, sources of leads and methods of obtaining new business, and methods of purchasing, marketing, selling, performing and pricing products and service employed by any Acquired Company; (iv) information identified as confidential and/or proprietary in internal documents of any Acquired Company; and (v) all information that would be a trade secret under any applicable Law; provided, however, that with respect to any information that constitutes trade secrets as defined under applicable Law, the obligations hereunder shall continue in effect for as long as such information continues to constitute trade secrets. The information subject to the foregoing provisions will not include any information: (1) that is or becomes generally available to, or known by, the public (other than as a result of disclosure in violation hereof); (2) becomes available to Seller after the Closing Date on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Acquired Companies or any of its Representatives; or (3) is independently developed by or for Seller without use of Acquired Company confidential or proprietary information; and provided, further, that the provisions of this Section 7.5(b) will not prohibit any retention of copies of records that is reasonably required and used solely to comply with applicable Law. It is understood and agreed that Seller is under common ownership with certain other entities (the “Related Funds”) and both Seller and such Related Funds have equity interests in other entities (the “Portfolio Companies”). Notwithstanding any provision of this agreement to the contrary, no provision of this Agreement shall apply to any action taken independently by any Related Fund or Portfolio Company or any of their respective Affiliates, so long as in each case such Related Fund or Portfolio Company has not received any of the Acquired Companies’ confidential or proprietary information. For purposes hereof, a Related Fund or Portfolio Company will not be deemed to have received confidential information solely because any of Seller’s or Acquired Companies’ employee, officer, principal, or director (an “Advent Principal”) also serves as a director or officer of any of a Related Fund or Portfolio Company, unless such Advent Principal (x) directs the Related Fund or Portfolio Company to act (or refrain from acting) based on such confidential information; or (y) delivers such confidential information to such Related Fund or Portfolio Company. Promptly following the Closing, Seller will inform its controlling Affiliates of its obligations under this Section 7.5(b), and Seller shall be liable for any action taken by any of its controlling Affiliates that would be a breach of this Section 7.5(b) if such action were to be taken, directly or indirectly, by Seller.

7.6 D&O Indemnification, Exculpation and Insurance.

(a)From and after the Effective Time for a period of six (6) years, Buyer shall cause each Acquired Company (each a “D&O Indemnitor”) to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Persons who at or prior to the Effective Time were directors, managers or officers of any Acquired Company (collectively, the “D&O Indemnitees”), with respect to all acts or omissions by them in their capacities as such or taken by them at the request of any Acquired Company, in each case, at or prior to the Effective Time and advance any expenses (including fees and expenses of legal counsel) of any D&O Indemnitee (provided that the Person to whom expenses are advanced provides an undertaking to repay such advances to the extent required by applicable Law) to the fullest extent that such Persons are indemnified and held harmless or have the right to advancement of expenses pursuant to the Organizational Documents of any Acquired

Strictly Confidential

Company and any indemnification agreements or arrangements of any Acquired Company, if any, as in effect as of the date of this Agreement (it being understood that such rights shall not be amended, or otherwise modified in any manner that would adversely affect the rights of the D&O Indemnitees, unless such modification is required by Law). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Buyer’s obligations under this Section ‎‎7.6(a) shall only apply to any individual D&O Indemnitee for so long as such Person is employed by, or serves as a director, manager or officer of, Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries (including the Acquired Companies) or if, prior to Closing, such person was employed by any of the Acquired Companies.

(b)The parties hereto hereby acknowledge that certain D&O Indemnitees may have rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and/or insurance provided by Persons (other than the Acquired Companies) (collectively, the “Other Indemnitors”). The parties hereto hereby agree that no Other Indemnitors (including Seller) that would otherwise be obligated to pay any claim will be relieved of the responsibility with respect thereto or, solely by virtue of this Section 7.6, have any subrogation rights with respect thereto, it being understood that no Other Indemnitor (including Seller) will be entitled to a “windfall” (i.e., a benefit they would not be entitled to receive in the absence of the indemnification, advancement of expenses or exculpation provisions hereof) by virtue of the indemnification, exculpation or advancement of expenses provisions of this Section 7.6.

(c)From and after the Effective Time for a period of six (6) years, Buyer shall cause the Organizational Documents of the Surviving Company and each Acquired Company to contain provisions with respect to indemnification, exculpation from liability and advancement of expenses that are at least as favorable to the beneficiaries of such provisions as those provisions set forth as of the date of this Agreement in the Organizational Documents of each Acquired Company which provisions, in each case, shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified in a manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of the D&O Indemnitees who are employed by, or serve as a director, manager or officer of, Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries (including the Acquired Companies) or, prior to Closing, were employed by any of the Acquired Companies.

(d)Prior to the Closing, Seller shall cause the Company and the Surviving Company and the Company Subsidiaries to, purchase the directors’ and officers’ “tail” or “runoff” insurance program currently available to be purchased under the existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance plan covering the Acquired Companies’ directors, managers and officers, to the extent such plan remains available as of the Effective Time on materially the same terms and conditions. To the extent that such plan is no longer available on materially the same terms and conditions at the Effective Time, prior to the Closing, Seller shall cause the Company to purchase a directors’ and officers’ liability “tail” or “run-off” insurance program, selected by the Shareholder Representative, for a period of six (6) years after the Effective Time (such coverage shall have an aggregate coverage limit over the term of such policy in an amount no less than the aggregate coverage limit under the Company’s existing directors’ and officers’ liability policy, and in all other respects comparable to such existing coverage). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the cost of such “tail” or “runoff” policies shall not exceed 200% of the last annual premium paid prior to the date hereof under the Company’s directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy.

Strictly Confidential

(e)The provisions of this Section 7.6: (i) are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each D&O Indemnitee, his or her heirs and his or her personal representatives; and (ii) are in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to indemnification or contribution that any such Person may have by Contract or otherwise.

(f)In the event that Buyer, the Surviving Company or any of its successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and is not the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger; or (ii) transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Buyer and of the Surviving Company shall assume all of the obligations of Buyer and the Surviving Company set forth in this Section 7.6. It is Buyer’s current intent to merge all of the Acquired Companies with Service Partners, LLC, a Virginia limited liability company (“Service Partners”). The parties hereto agree that Service Partners’ Organizational Documents meet the above requirements and nothing in this Agreement shall require (or be interpreted to require) Buyer to amend, restate, amend and restate or otherwise modify the Organizational Documents of Service Partners as such Organizational Documents are in effect as of the date hereof, provided that the D&O Indemnitees are “Covered Persons” (as such term is defined in the Organizational Documents of Service Partners) following such merger.

7.7 Publicity. No party hereto shall issue or cause the publication of any press release or public announcement concerning this Agreement or the Transactions without obtaining the prior written approval of the other parties hereto; provided that nothing herein will prohibit (a) any party from issuing or causing publication of any such press release or public announcement to the extent that such disclosure is upon advice of counsel required by Law or stock exchange rules or regulations, in which case the party making such determination will consult with the other parties hereto prior to making such disclosure and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to allow the other party to comment and suggest satisfactory text in advance of such issuance or publication, (b) Advent International Corporation and its Affiliates from communicating with the current or prospective limited partners of the investment funds managed by Advent International Corporation and its Affiliates regarding this Agreement or the Transactions to the extent such information is customarily provided to current or prospective limited partners of investment funds in connection with their customary fundraising and reporting activities and so long as such recipients are bound by customary obligations of confidentiality to the disclosing Person or (c) either Advent International Corporation and its Affiliates or Buyer and its Affiliates (including the Acquired Companies) from disclosing the consummation of the Transactions on its website and otherwise in the ordinary course of their business (provided that such disclosure is subsequent to and consistent with the content of any prior press release or public announcement permitted by this Section 7.7 ).

7.8Employee Matters.

(a)For a period of twelve (12) months following the Effective Time, Buyer shall provide, or shall cause to be provided, to each employee of any of the Acquired Companies (excluding any such employees physically residing in Canada that are employed by any of the Acquired Companies organized under the Laws of Canada (including any provinces or territory thereof)) (each a “Continuing Employee”), (i) compensation (including annual base salary or base

For purposes of eligibility, vesting, vacation entitlement, severance and all other benefit entitlements (but not benefit accrual under defined benefit plans) under the employee benefit plans of Buyer providing benefits to Continuing Employees (the “Buyer Plans”), Buyer shall credit each Continuing Employee with his or her years of service with any Acquired Company and any predecessor entities, to the same extent as such Continuing Employee was entitled immediately prior to the Closing under any similar Company Benefit Plan, except where doing so would result in a duplication of benefits. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 7.8, the terms and conditions of employment for any Continuing Employee covered by a collective bargaining agreement shall be governed by the terms of such collective bargaining agreement.

(b)Buyer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) cause to be waived under any applicable Buyer Plan any pre-existing condition limitations, actively-at-work requirements, exclusions and waiting periods to the extent waived or not applicable under, or previously satisfied by such Continuing Employee under, a similar Company Benefit Plan; and (ii) cause the Continuing Employees to be given credit under the applicable Buyer Plan for amounts paid prior to the date on which such Continuing Employees commence participation in such Buyer Plan for purposes of applying deductibles, co-payments, co-insurance and out-of-pocket maximums.

Effective as of the Closing, Buyer shall, or shall cause its Affiliates to, assume or retain, as the case may be, all obligations of each Acquired Company for “retention,” “transition” and “success” bonus payments, annual bonus payments and to severance payments, payable through 2023 under applicable agreements with Continuing Employees (assuming each respective employee remained employed through the applicable payment date) and shall pay such obligations in accordance with the terms of each applicable agreement.

(d)Effective as of the Closing, Buyer shall, or shall cause its Affiliates to, assume or retain, as the case may be, all obligations of each Acquired Company for the accrued and unused vacation and paid time off of each Continuing Employee. Continuing Employees shall be permitted to use such accrued and unused vacation and paid time off in accordance with the Acquired Company’s policies and procedures, as in effect as of the Closing Date.

(e)As soon as practicable following the execution of this Agreement, to the extent permitted under applicable collective bargaining agreements, the applicable Acquired Company shall, subject to review and approval by Buyer: (i) adopt resolutions to terminate, subject to the consummation of the Transactions, the Distribution International Employee 401(k) Retirement Plan in which U.S. employees of the Acquired Companies participate (the “Company’s

Such resolutions and amendment shall be provided to Buyer at least ten (10) calendar days prior to the Closing Date. Any contributions due to the Company’s 401(k) Plan for the period prior to the Plan Termination Date, and not yet paid on the Plan Termination Date, will be contributed by the Company, as soon as administratively feasible following the Plan Termination Date. The Company shall cause each of the following to continue in full force and effect until the Effective Time: (A) the fidelity bond, if any, issued to the Company or any Acquired Company as described in ERISA Section 412; and (B) the ERISA fiduciary liability insurance policy currently in effect, if any, for the benefit of the covered fiduciaries of the Company’s 401(k) Plan.

(f)Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to terminate, effective as of the Closing Date: (i) the supplemental retirement benefit described in that certain employment agreement dated July 31, 2014; (ii) the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan for Gerald Malter dated January 1, 1994; and (iii) the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan for John McCall dated January 1, 1994 (collectively, the “Supplemental Retirement Benefits”), and to pay the entire remaining balance of the Supplemental Retirement Benefits as soon as reasonably practicable following the Closing Date, subject to and in accordance with Code Section 409A.

(g)The provisions contained in this Section 7.7 shall not (i) be treated as an amendment or other modification of any Company Benefit Plan or other employee benefit plan, agreement or other arrangement; (ii) limit the right of Buyer to terminate any employee at any time and for any reason or amend any Company Benefit Plan subsequent to the Closing Date; or (iii) create any third-party rights, benefits or remedies of any nature whatsoever in any employee of any Acquired Company (or any beneficiaries or dependents thereof) or any other Person that is not a party to this Agreement.

Buyer shall, at Seller’s cost and expense and upon prior written request, cooperate with the Shareholder Representative in obtaining such refunds, it being understood that any such Pre-Closing Tax Refunds will, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, be claimed in cash rather

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section ‎7.10(a), (x) in no event will Seller be entitled to payments under this Section ‎7.10(a), individually or in the aggregate, in excess of $5,000,000 and (y) Seller’s right to any payment pursuant to this Section ‎7.10(a) shall terminate on the Tax Indemnity Expiration Date.

(c)For purposes of this Agreement, any Taxes for any Straddle Period shall be allocated between the Pre-Closing Tax Period and the portion of such Straddle Period beginning after the Closing Date as follows: (i) Taxes (such as income Taxes, sales and use Taxes, payroll and employment Taxes and withholding Taxes), other than those referred to in clause (ii) below, shall be made by means of a deemed closing of the books and records of the Acquired Companies as of the end of the Closing Date (provided, however, that exemptions, allowances or deductions that are calculated on an annual basis (including depreciation and amortization deductions, other than with respect to property placed in service after the Closing) shall be allocated in accordance with clause (ii) below); and (ii) Taxes imposed on a periodic basis (such as real or personal property or other ad valorem Taxes) shall be allocated between the pre-Closing and post-Closing portions of such Straddle Periods in proportion to the number of days in each such portion.

The parties acknowledge that this Section ‎7.12 shall not apply to any arrangements entered into at the direction of Buyer or between Buyer and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and a disqualified individual, on the other hand (“Buyer Arrangements”). In the event that Buyer provides to the Company, no less than fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the Effective Time, a written description of any Buyer Arrangements and the value for purposes of Section 280G of the Code of such Buyer Arrangements, the Company shall include such description and value(s) in any materials disclosed to holders of Shares in connection with soliciting approval in accordance with this Section ‎7.12; provided, however, that compliance with the remainder of this Section ‎7.12 shall be determined as if such Buyer Arrangements had not been entered into. The parties hereto acknowledge that the Company cannot compel any disqualified individual to waive any existing rights under a contract with the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries and the Company shall not be deemed in breach of this Section ‎7.12 with respect to any disqualified individual who refuses to waive any such right. Prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to Buyer (and Buyer’s legal counsel) a written notice relating to the Waived 280G Benefits of any disqualified individual indicating that either (i) the requisite vote was obtained with respect to such Waived 280G Benefits (the “280G Approval”); or (ii) the 280G Approval was not obtained and, as a consequence, such Waived 280G Benefits have not been and shall not be made or provided, and any portion of such Waived 280G Benefits previously paid or provided to such disqualified individual shall be returned or recovered. Not less than three (3) Business Days prior to distributing any material relating to a vote on any such Waived 280G Benefits (including any waivers, consents or disclosure statements), the Company shall provide Buyer with drafts of such materials (which shall be subject to Buyer’s reasonable review and comment) along with its analysis under Section 280G of the Code

No delay in or failure to give such notice by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Section 10.9(a) will adversely

affect any of the other rights or remedies that the Indemnified Party has under this Agreement or alter or relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party to the extent that such delay or failure has not materially prejudiced the Indemnifying Party.

(b)The Indemnifying Party has the right, exercisable by written notice to the Indemnified Party within fifteen (15) days after receipt of a claims notice delivered in accordance with Section 10.9(a) from the Indemnified Party of the commencement or assertion of any claim in respect of which indemnity may be sought under this Article X (except for any claim set forth on Schedule 10.9(b) of the Company Disclosure Schedules), to assume and conduct the defense of such claim in accordance with the limits set forth in this Agreement with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party and reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that (i) such defense by the Indemnifying Party will not, in the reasonable judgment of the Indemnifying Party, have a material adverse effect on the Indemnified Party; (ii) the claim solely seeks monetary damages; (iii) the claim does not include criminal charges; and (iv) the Indemnifying Party expressly agrees in writing to be fully responsible for all Losses relating to such claim.

The Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party, as the case may be, has the right to participate in (but not control), at its own expense, the defense of any claim that the other is defending as provided in this Agreement. The Indemnifying Party, if it has assumed the defense of any claim as provided in this Agreement, may not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, consent to a settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any such claim that (A) does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to the Indemnified Party of a complete release from all liability in respect of such claim; or (B) grants any injunctive or equitable relief.

(c)For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary (including Section 10.9(b)), Buyer will direct, and will have full and exclusive authority and control with respect to, the defense, prosecution, compromise and settlement of the claims set forth on Schedule 10.9(b) of the Company Disclosure Schedules; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to Specified Claim – B: (i) Buyer shall keep the Shareholder Representative reasonably informed on the status thereof and shall consult in good faith with the Shareholder Representative with respect to the defense, negotiations, compromise and settlement thereof and shall consider in good faith any suggestions of the Shareholder Representative with respect thereto, and (ii) the prior written consent of the Shareholder Representative (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) will be required with respect to any proposed settlement of such claim that is for monetary damages in excess of $300,000.

The parties hereto have voluntarily agreed to define their rights, liabilities and obligations with respect to the Transactions exclusively in contract pursuant to the express terms and provisions of this Agreement and the other Specified Documents, and the parties hereto expressly disclaim that they are owed any duties or are entitled to any remedies not expressly set forth in this Agreement or the other Specified Documents.

11.4Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed by Buyer, the Company and the Shareholder Representative.

11.6Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any Law or public policy, all other terms or provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the Transactions is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the Transactions are consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

Person in the Seller Group or the Shareholder Representative and its counsel, including Weil and SE, made before the consummation of the Closing in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and performance under, or any dispute or Legal Proceeding arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, any Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or any matter directly relating to any of the foregoing, are privileged communications that do not pass to the Surviving Company notwithstanding the Merger, and instead survive, remain with and are controlled by the Shareholder Representative (the “Privileged Communications”), without any waiver thereof.

(c)Each of the Buyer and the Company (and the Surviving Company after the Effective Time), on behalf of itself and the Waiving Parties, hereby further agrees (i) not to assert that any privilege has been waived as to the Privileged Communications, whether located in the records or email server of an Acquired Company or the Surviving Company or otherwise (including in the knowledge of the officers and employees) as a result of any communication described in Section 11.9(b) and (ii) not to take any action that would result in any subsequent waiver of the privilege respecting the Privileged Communications.

11.10 Non-Recourse.

Without limiting the rights of any party hereto against the other parties hereto as set forth herein, in no event shall any party hereto, any of its Affiliates or any Person claiming by, through or on behalf of any of them institute any Related Claim against any Non-Party. In no event shall any Person be liable for the Fraud of any other Person, and a claim for Fraud may only be asserted against the Person that committed such Fraud.

11.11 Specific Performance.

(a)The parties agree that irreparable damage may occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached, and that money damages or legal remedies would not be an adequate remedy for any such damages. Therefore, it is accordingly agreed that prior to the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 9.1, each party shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent or restrain any breach or threatened breach of this Agreement by any other party and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of any other party, in any court of competent jurisdiction, and appropriate injunctive relief shall be granted in connection therewith. Such remedies shall be in addition to and not in substitution for any other remedy to which such party is entitled at law or in equity. If any party brings any action to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions hereof by any other party, the

Termination Date shall be automatically extended by (i) the amount of time during which such action is pending, plus twenty (20) Business Days or (ii) such other time period established by the court presiding over such action.

(b)Each party hereto hereby waives (i) any defenses in any action for specific performance, and agrees not to oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief as provided herein, on the basis that the other party has an adequate remedy at law; and (ii) any requirement under any Law to post a bond or other security as a prerequisite to obtaining equitable relief.

(c)The parties hereto agree that (i) by seeking the remedies provided for in this Section 11.11, no party shall in any respect waive its right to seek at any time any other form of relief that may be available to it under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document (including monetary damages) in the event that this Agreement has been terminated or in the event that the remedies provided for in this Section 11.11 are not available or otherwise are not granted; and (ii) nothing set forth in this Section 11.11 shall require any party hereto to institute any proceeding for (or limit any party’s right to institute any proceeding for) specific performance under this Section 11.11 prior to or as a condition to exercising any termination right under Article IX, nor shall the commencement of any Legal Proceeding pursuant to this Section 11.11 or anything set forth in this Section 11.11 restrict or limit any party’s right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with the terms of Article IX or pursue any other remedies under this Agreement any other Transaction Document that may be available then or thereafter.

11.14 Shareholder Representative .

(a)Designation. The Shareholder Representative is hereby authorized to serve as the representative, exclusive agent and attorney-in-fact of Seller with respect to the matters expressly set forth in this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to be performed by the Shareholder Representative.

(b)Authority . Seller, by its (i) acceptance of any portion of the Merger Consideration; and (ii) approval of this Agreement and the Merger by voting in favor of, or consenting to, the Transactions, irrevocably appoints the Shareholder Representative as the representative, exclusive agent, proxy and attorney-in-fact for Seller for all purposes of this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement and any other Transaction Documents, including the full power and authority on Seller’s behalf to (A) consummate the Transactions; (B) make any determinations and settle any matters in connection with the adjustment of the Merger Consideration contemplated by Article III; (C) distribute any funds payable by Buyer hereunder which are for the account of the Seller (if any); (D) to deduct and/or hold back any funds which may be payable to Seller pursuant to the terms of this Agreement in order to pay, or establish a reserve for, any amount which may be payable by Seller hereunder; (E) instruct the Escrow Agent to release any amounts from the Adjustment Escrow Account as permitted by this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement; (F) give or receive notice under this Agreement, to execute and deliver on behalf of Seller any amendment to the terms hereof or grant any waiver, consent or approval by Seller under this Agreement; (G) take all other actions to be taken by or on behalf of Seller in connection herewith; (H) retain funds for reasonably anticipated expenses and liabilities; and (I) do each and every act and exercise any and all rights which Seller is permitted or required to do or exercise in connection with this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement and any other Transaction Document. The

Strictly Confidential

Shareholder Representative shall act for Seller on all of the matters set forth in this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement in the manner the Shareholder Representative believes to be in the best interest of Seller. All decisions and actions by the Shareholder Representative made in accordance with the authority granted to it hereunder shall be binding upon Seller, and Seller shall not have the right to object, dissent, protest or otherwise contest the same. For the avoidance of doubt, Buyer and Merger Sub shall be entitled to rely on the acts, to the extent authorized hereunder, of the Shareholder Representative and to assume that the Shareholder Representative acted in the best interests of Seller in connection therewith and none of Buyer, Merger Sub or the Surviving Company shall have any liability or responsibility whatever or under any circumstances for any act or omission of the Shareholder Representative.

(c)Expense Reimbursement and Representative Holdback Amount.

(i)Seller further agrees that it shall promptly reimburse the Shareholder Representative for any payment obligations, fees or expenses incurred by the Shareholder Representative in exercising its authority hereunder and taking any actions pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents; provided that the Shareholder Representative shall first make payment of such fees and expenses from the Expense Reserve Holdback Amount.

(ii)The Shareholder Representative will hold the Expense Reserve Holdback Amount in a segregated account with an Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured institution in a segregated account separate from the Shareholder Representative corporate funds and Shareholder Representative will not use these funds for its operating expenses or any other corporate purposes and will not voluntarily make these funds available to its creditors in the event of bankruptcy. Seller will not receive any interest or earnings on the Expense Reserve Holdback Amount and irrevocably transfers and assigns to the Shareholder Representative any ownership right that they may otherwise have had in any such interest or earnings. The Shareholder Representative will not be liable for any loss of principal of the Expense Reserve Holdback Amount other than as a result of its fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(iii)The Expense Reserve Holdback Amount shall be retained by the Shareholder Representative for such time as the Shareholder Representative shall determine in its sole discretion. As soon as practicable following the completion of the Shareholder Representative’s responsibilities, the Shareholder Representative will deliver the aggregate amount of funds remaining in the Expense Reserve Holdback Account to Seller, with respect to each Share outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time held by Seller, an amount equal to the Expense Reserve Holdback Release Amount Per Share. In no event will any other Person (including Buyer and the Surviving Company) be liable to Seller in respect of any such payment.

(iv)For Tax purposes, the Expense Reserve Holdback Amount will be treated as consideration in the Merger having been received and voluntarily set aside by Seller at the time of Closing.

Strictly Confidential

(d)Replacement. The Shareholder Representative may resign at any time. In the event that the Shareholder Representative becomes unable to perform its responsibilities hereunder or resigns from such position, Seller (or, if applicable, its legal representatives, successors and assigns) shall select another representative to fill such vacancy, and such substituted representative shall be deemed to be the Shareholder Representative for all purposes of this Agreement. Neither the removal of, nor the appointment of a successor to, the Shareholder Representative shall affect in any manner the validity or enforceability of any actions taken or agreements, understandings or commitments entered into by the prior Shareholder Representative, which shall continue to be effective and binding on Seller.

(e)Exculpation.

(i)The Shareholder Representative will incur no liability of any kind with respect to any action or omission by the Shareholder Representative in connection with the Shareholder Representative’s services pursuant to this Agreement and any other Transaction Document while acting in good faith, except in the event of liability primarily results from the Shareholder Representative’s fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Shareholder Representative shall not be liable to Seller for any action or omission pursuant to the advice of outside counsel. Buyer agrees that it will not look to the personal assets of the Shareholder Representative, acting in such capacity, for the satisfaction of any obligations to be performed by the Acquired Companies (pre-Closing) or Seller.

(ii)Seller will indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Shareholder Representative from and against any and all losses, liabilities, damages, claims, penalties, fines, forfeitures, actions, fees, costs and expenses (including reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses of counsel and experts and their staffs and all expense of document location, duplication and shipment) (collectively, “Representative Losses ”) arising out of or in connection with the Shareholder Representative’s execution and performance of this Agreement and any agreements ancillary hereto, in each case as such Representative Loss is suffered or incurred; provided that in the event that any such Representative Loss is finally adjudicated to have been primarily caused by the bad faith, fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Shareholder Representative, the Shareholder Representative will reimburse Seller the amount of such indemnified Representative Loss to the extent attributable to such bad faith, fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct. If not paid directly to the Shareholder Representative by Seller, any such Representative Losses may be recovered by the Shareholder Representative from (1) the Expense Reserve Holdback Amount; and (2) the amounts in the Adjustment Escrow Account at such time as remaining amounts would otherwise be distributable to Seller; provided that while this Section 11.14 allows the Shareholder Representative to be paid from the aforementioned sources of funds, this does not relieve Seller from its obligation to promptly pay such Representative Losses as they are suffered or incurred, nor does it prevent the Shareholder Representative from seeking any remedies available to it at law or otherwise. In no event will the Shareholder Representative be required to advance its own funds on behalf of Seller or otherwise. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any restrictions or limitations on liability or indemnification obligations of Seller

set forth elsewhere in this Agreement are not intended to be applicable to the indemnities provided to the Shareholder Representative under this Section 11.14.

(iii)This Section 11.14(e) will survive the Closing, the resignation or removal of the Shareholder Representative or the termination of this Agreement.

(f)Representations and Warranties. The Shareholder Representative represents and warrants to Buyer and Merger Sub, as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date, as follows:

(i)the Shareholder Representative is an entity duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation and has all corporate power and authority required to carry on its business in all material respects as currently conducted;

(iii)this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Shareholder Representative and this Agreement constitutes a legally valid and binding obligation of the Shareholder Representative, enforceable against the Shareholder Representative in accordance with its terms (except as may be limited by the Equitable Exceptions);

(iv)the execution and delivery hereof and of the other Transaction Documents to which it is (or will be) a party by the Shareholder Representative, and the performance by the Shareholder Representative of its obligations hereunder and thereunder, do not and will not (A) result in a violation of the Organizational Documents of the Shareholder Representative; (B) violate any applicable Laws or Orders applicable to the Shareholder Representative; or (C) require any consent or approval that has not been given or other action that has not been taken by any Person under any Contract binding upon the Shareholder Representative.

(g)Irrevocability; Successors. The provisions of this Section 11.14 are independent and severable, are irrevocable and coupled with an interest and shall be enforceable notwithstanding any rights or remedies that Seller may have in connection with the Transactions. The provisions of this Section 11.14 shall be binding upon the heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns of Seller, and any references in this Agreement to Seller shall mean and include the successors to the rights of Seller hereunder, whether pursuant to testamentary disposition, the laws of descent and distribution or otherwise.
