Caution Regarding Forward-Looking Information and “Safe Harbor” Statement

To the extent any statements made in this document contain information that is not historical, these statements are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), as amended (collectively, “forward-looking statements”).

These forward-looking statements relate to, among other things, the expected benefits of the proposed merger such as efficiencies, cost savings, tax benefits, enhanced revenues and cash flow, growth potential, market profile and financial strength; the competitive ability and position of the combined company; and the expected timing of the completion of the transaction and management changes thereafter. Forward-looking statements can generally be identified by the use of words such as “believe”, “anticipate”, “expect”, “estimate”, “intend”, “continue”, “plan”, “project”, “will”, “may”, “should”, “could”, “would”, “target”, “potential” and other similar expressions. In addition, any statements that refer to expectations, projections or other characterizations of future events or circumstances are forward-looking statements. Although certain of these statements set out herein are indicated above, all of the statements in this document that contain forward-looking statements are qualified by these cautionary statements. Although Registrant and LINC believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, such statements involve risks and uncertainties, and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. Certain material factors or assumptions are applied in making forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, factors and assumptions regarding the items outlined above. Actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied in such statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from these expectations include, among other things, the following: the failure to receive, on a timely basis or otherwise, the required approvals government or regulatory agencies (including the terms of such approvals); the risk that a condition to closing of the merger may not be satisfied; the possibility that the anticipated benefits and synergies from the proposed merger cannot be fully realized or may take longer to realize than expected; the possibility that costs or difficulties related to the integration of Registrant and LINC operations is expected to be greater than expected; the ability of the combined company to retain and hire key personnel, including senior management, and maintain relationships with customers, suppliers or other business partners; the impact of legislative, regulatory, competitive and technological changes; the risk that the credit ratings of the combined company may be different from what the companies expect; and other risk factors relating to the logistics industry, as detailed from time to time in each of Universal’s and LINC’s reports filed with the SEC. There can be no assurance that the proposed merger is expected to in fact be consummated.

Item 1.01

ENTRY INTO MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENTS

On July 25, 2012, Universal Truckload Services, Inc., a Michigan corporation (“Universal”), and LINC Logistics Company, a Michigan corporation (“LINC”), announced that their respective boards of directors adopted and the parties entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among LINC, Universal, Upton Merger Sub I, Inc., a Michigan corporation (“Merger Sub”), Upton Merger Sub II, LLC, a Michigan limited liability company (“Merger LLC”), Matthew T. Moroun, Matthew T. Moroun as Trustee of the Manuel J. Moroun 2012 Annuity Trust dated April 30, 2012, Manuel J. Moroun, in his capacity as Trustee of the Manuel J. Moroun Revocable Trust U/A dated March 24, 1977, as amended and restated on December 22, 2004, Matthew T. Moroun, in his capacity as agent and attorney-in-fact for the Company Shareholders (as

defined in the Merger Agreement) and Manuel J. Moroun, solely with respect to the Applicable Sections (as defined in the Merger Agreement). Matthew T. Moroun and Manuel J. Moroun (together, the “Morouns”) serve as Chairman of the Board of Directors and Director, respectively, of Universal and collectively own, either directly or through affiliates, approximately 65% of the outstanding Universal common stock. The Morouns and entities controlled by the Morouns own 100% of the outstanding LINC common stock.

Both Merger LLC and Merger Sub are wholly-owned subsidiaries of Universal. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub is expected to merge with and into LINC (the “Merger”), with LINC to be the surviving corporation in the Merger (the “Surviving Corporation”) and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Universal, which is expected to be followed immediately after the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”) by a merger of the Surviving Corporation with and into Merger LLC (the “Subsequent Merger” and, together with the Merger, the “Transaction”), with Merger LLC to be the surviving entity in the Subsequent Merger. The Merger and the Subsequent Merger, considered together as a single integrated transaction for United States federal income tax purposes along with the other transactions effected pursuant to the Merger Agreement, are intended to qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The Morouns are expected to own approximately 82%, and Universal’s current shareholders, other than the Morouns, are expected to own approximately 18% of the outstanding common stock of Universal following the completion of the Transaction.

At the Effective Time, each outstanding share of LINC common stock is expected to be converted into the right to receive consideration consisting of 0.700 of a share of Universal common stock (the “Merger Consideration”) and cash in lieu of fractional shares. This is expected to result in the issuance of approximately 14.5 million shares, valued at approximately $182 million based on Universal’s closing stock price as of July 25, 2012. At the Effective Time, $152.9 million of obligations of LINC (comprised of $94.5 million of obligations of LINC to the Morouns that is expected to be paid in full and $58.4 million of third-party debt) is expected to be satisfied and third party-debt refinanced via a new credit facility consisting of up to $220 million.

Universal and the Morouns have entered into an Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), which grants the Morouns customary registration rights for the shares of Universal common stock (the “Registrable Shares”). The Registration Rights Agreement will be effective as of the Effective Time. Under the Registration Rights Agreement, the Morouns have demand and “piggyback” registration rights. The demand rights enable the Morouns to require Universal to register the Registrable Shares with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) at any time, subject to certain limited exceptions, including the requirement that the aggregate offering price of the Registrable Securities exceeds $25 million. The piggyback rights are expected to allow each of the Morouns to elect to register Registrable Shares held by them along with any shares Universal registers with the SEC. These registration rights are subject to customary conditions and limitations including the right of the underwriters of an offering to limit the number of shares.

Universal’s disinterested directors approved the Transaction following receipt of a recommendation from a special committee made up entirely of independent and disinterested directors, which was represented by independent legal and financial advisors.

The Merger Agreement contains (a) customary representations and warranties by Universal, LINC and the shareholders of LINC, and (b) covenants of Universal and LINC including, among others (i) to conduct their respective operations in the ordinary course consistent with past practice, (ii) to use commercially reasonable

efforts to maintain satisfactory relationships with its customers and (iii) to deliver written consent of each of their shareholders necessary to approve the Transaction, which shall constitute the respective shareholder approvals.

The completion of the Merger is subject to various conditions, including, among others (i) Universal’s receipt, or its contemporaneous with closing receipt, of proceeds, pursuant to a new credit facility to replace Universal’s and LINC’s existing facilities, in an amount of up to $220 million and not less than $200 million and (ii) subject to certain materiality exceptions, the accuracy of the representations and warranties made by Universal, LINC and LINC shareholders, respectively, and compliance by LINC and Universal with their respective obligations under the Merger Agreement. Universal and LINC also have certain termination rights under the Merger Agreement.

The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 and is incorporated by reference into this report.

Item 3.02

UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES

In the transaction described in Item 1.01, the Registrant intends to issue 14,527,334 shares of its common stock in exchange for all of the issued and outstanding shares of LINC. Registrant’s board of directors has determined that the acquisition of these shares by the Morouns is exempt from Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act by virtue of Rule 16b-3 promulgated thereunder.

Item 5.02

Section 2.13 Exchange of Certificates; Fractional Shares; Closing Payments.

(a) At or immediately following the Effective Time, Parent shall deliver (or cause to be delivered) or pay (or cause to be paid) in cash in immediately available funds, as applicable, the following:

(i) to each Company Shareholder, certificates for Parent Common Stock representing the Merger Consideration payable to such Company Shareholder in accordance with Section 2.10(a), free and clear of all Liens;

(ii) to each Company Shareholder, the cash payable to such Company Shareholder in lieu of fractional shares pursuant to Section 2.13(d);

(iii) to the payees thereof in accordance with the Third Party Payoff Letters, the cash payoff amounts set forth therein;

(iv) to the lender or lenders thereof, an aggregate amount of cash equal to the Parent Indebtedness; and

Section 2.14 Certain Adjustments.

Section 2.15 Withholding Rights. Each of Parent, Merger Sub, the Transitory Surviving Corporation and the Surviving Company shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any payments payable or otherwise deliverable to any holders or former holders of shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as Parent, Merger Sub, the Transitory Surviving Corporation or the Surviving Company, as the case may be, is required to deduct or withhold therefrom under the Code, or any other Applicable Law, with respect to the making of such payment. To the extent that such amounts are so withheld and paid to the applicable Tax Authority, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of whom such deduction and withholding was made.

Section 2.16 Further Action. If, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is determined by Parent to be necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement or to vest the Surviving Company with full right, title and possession of and to all rights and property of Merger Sub, Transitory Surviving Corporation and the Company, the officers of the Surviving Company and Parent shall be fully authorized (in the name of Merger Sub, the Transitory Surviving Corporation, the Company and otherwise) to take such action.

Section 2.17 Closing Working Capital Adjustment.

(a) As promptly as reasonably practicable, but in no event later than twenty-five (25) calendar days following the Closing Date, Parent shall cause to be prepared in good faith and in accordance with GAAP and the accounting principles and policies of the Company as of the Measurement Date consistently applied with prior periods (the “Company Accounting Principles and Procedures”), and shall deliver to the Shareholder Representative (the “Receiving Party”) (i) a statement setting forth in reasonable detail the Company’s calculation of the Closing Working Capital and (ii) reasonable supporting detail thereof (the calculations and items set forth in the

foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) are referred to herein as the “Working Capital Statement”). Following delivery of the Working Capital Statement, the Company shall permit the Receiving Party (and its Representatives) reasonable access to the personnel, accountants and properties of the Company, the Surviving Company (if applicable) and their respective Subsidiaries, and their respective books, records, contracts and other documents of the Company, the Surviving Company (if applicable) and their respective Subsidiaries that are or could reasonably be relevant to the calculation of Closing Working Capital or preparation of the Working Capital Statement.

(b) Following the delivery of the Working Capital Statement, the Receiving Party may dispute all or any portion of the calculation of the Closing Working Capital set forth in the Working Capital Statement, and may deliver a written notice (a “Dispute Notice”) to Parent prior to the expiration of the twenty-five (25) day period commencing upon receipt by the Receiving Party of the Working Capital Statement (the “Review Period”). The Dispute Notice shall set forth, in reasonable detail, the principal basis for the dispute of such calculation. If the Receiving Party does not deliver a Dispute Notice prior to the expiration of the Review Period, the calculation of the Closing Working Capital set forth in the Working Capital Statement shall be deemed final and binding on all of the parties for all purposes of this Agreement.

(c) If the Receiving Party delivers a Dispute Notice to Parent prior to the expiration of the Review Period, then the Shareholder Representative and Parent shall use good faith efforts to reach agreement on the calculation of the Closing Working Capital and all such discussions and communications related thereto shall be governed by Rule 408 of the Federal Rules of Evidence and any applicable similar state rule. Any items agreed to by Parent and the Shareholder Representative in writing, together with any items or calculations set forth in the Working Capital Statement not disputed or objected to by the Receiving Party in the Dispute Notice, shall be final and binding on all parties. If the Shareholder Representative and Parent are unable to reach agreement on the calculation of the Closing Working Capital within twenty (20) calendar days after the end of the Review Period, the Shareholder Representative and Parent shall refer all matters that remain in dispute (the “Unresolved Matters”) to Plante & Moran PLLC (such firm, or any successor thereto, being referred to herein as the “Designated Accounting Firm”) after such twentieth (20^th) day. The Designated Accounting Firm shall act as an expert and not an arbitrator to resolve any remaining disagreements and shall only resolve any Unresolved Matters (and not any other matter or calculation set forth in the Working Capital Statement). In connection with the resolution of any such Unresolved Matters by the Designated Accounting Firm: (A) each of Parent and the Shareholder Representative shall have one opportunity to initiate a meeting with the Designated Accounting Firm to provide their respective views as to any Unresolved Matters with respect to the calculation of the Closing Working Capital (provided, that such party shall (x) provide a reasonable advance notice to the other so that the other may have present its Representatives and (y) provide in advance of any such meeting copies of all written materials to be presented to the Designated Accounting Firm by such party); (B) the Designated Accounting Firm may, at its discretion, conduct one conference or meeting concerning the disagreement and each of Parent and the Shareholder Representative shall have the right to have present its Representatives; (C) the Designated Accounting Firm shall be directed to, and shall, render its decision on the Unresolved Matters in accordance with the Company Accounting Principles and Procedures within twenty (20) calendar days of its engagement and, upon reaching such determination, shall deliver a copy of its calculations of the

Unresolved Matters to the Shareholder Representative and Parent; and (D) the Designated Accounting Firm’s determination as to each Unresolved Matter shall be final and binding on all of the parties for all purposes of this Agreement, absent manifest error. In its determination as to the Unresolved Matters and its calculations thereof, the Designated Accounting Firm may not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by any party in the Working Capital Statement or in the Dispute Notice or less than the lowest value for such item claimed by any party in the Working Capital Statement or in the Dispute Notice. The fees and expenses of the Designated Accounting Firm shall be borne 50% by Parent, on the one hand, and 50%, on a joint and several basis, by MJM and MTM, on the other hand.

Section 2.18 Procedure for Payment of Closing Working Capital Adjustment. If the Closing Working Capital, as finally determined in accordance with Section 2.17, is less than the Working Capital Target (such deficiency, a “Shortfall”), then the Company Shareholders jointly shall deliver to the Surviving Company cash in immediately available funds in the amount of such Shortfall no later than the fifth (5^th) Business Day after the determination of the Closing Working Capital in accordance with Section 2.17. If the Closing Working Capital, as finally determined in accordance with Section 2.17, is greater than the Working Capital Target (such excess, an “Excess”), then Parent shall deliver to the Company Shareholders cash in immediately available funds in the amount of such Excess (allocated among the Company Shareholders based on their Pro Rata Share) no later than the fifth (5^th) Business Day after the determination of the Closing Working Capital in accordance with Section 2.17.

Each of Parent, Sister Sub, Merger Sub and the Company agrees to correct any information provided by it for use in the Information Statement which shall have become false or misleading and Sister Sub, Merger Sub and the Company agree to notify Parent promptly of any information discovered by Sister Sub, Merger Sub or the Company, as applicable, regarding itself or its shareholders that should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement, so that the Proxy Statement would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading.

TAX MATTERS

Section 8.01 Tax Returns. The Company Shareholders and the Shareholder Representative shall prepare, or shall cause to be prepared, all Tax Returns required to be filed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries which reflect items of income, gain, deduction or loss that are reported on the Tax Returns of the Company Shareholders or any other owner of the Company for any Tax period ending on or before the Closing Date regardless of when due (such Tax Returns, the “Flow-Through Returns”). For the avoidance of doubt, the Company Shareholders (or such other owner of the Company) shall pay all Taxes due with respect to any items of income or gain of the Company reflected on such Flow-Through Returns. Such Flow-Through Returns shall be prepared by treating items on such Tax Returns in a manner consistent

with the past practices of the Company with respect to such items, except as required by Applicable Law (the “Past Practice Requirement”). At least ten Business Days prior to the due date (taking into account any extensions) for filing any such Flow-Through Return, the Shareholder Representative shall submit a copy of such Flow-Through Return to Parent for review and comment (such comments being limited to ensuring that such Flow-Through Return is prepared in a manner consistent with the terms of this Agreement, the Past Practice Requirement and Applicable Law) and shall consider comments in good faith, and such Flow-Through Return shall not be filed without the consent of Parent (not to be unreasonably withheld) in the event such Flow-Through Return would reasonably be expected to cause a material adverse Tax consequence to Parent or its Affiliates in a period beginning on or after the Closing Date. For the avoidance of doubt, from and after the Closing, Parent and the Company shall be responsible for the timely preparation of any Tax Returns of the Company and its Subsidiaries other than Flow-Through Returns and the payment of any Taxes with respect to such Tax Returns; provided, however, that the Company Shareholders shall pay the portion of any such Taxes on such Tax Returns that are payable by the Company Shareholders under (and in satisfaction of) the indemnification provisions in Article 11. After the Closing, without the consent of the Shareholder Representative not to be unreasonably withheld, neither Parent nor any of its Affiliates shall amend any Flow-Through Returns or any other Tax Return of the Company or its Subsidiaries relating to a period (or portion thereof) ending on or prior to the Closing Date. The Company Shareholders and the Shareholder Representative shall have the right, at their sole cost and expense, to control any audit, examination or other proceeding with respect to Flow-Through Returns and may make all decisions taken in connection with such control; provided, that the Company Shareholders and the Shareholder Representative shall not settle any such audit, examination or other proceeding without the consent of Parent not to be unreasonably withheld.

The Shareholder Representative, the Company Shareholders and Parent shall agree (i) to retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Company or its Subsidiaries relating to any Tax period beginning before the Closing Date until the applicable statute of limitations (as may be extended) has expired and to abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any Tax Authority; (ii) to allow the other party and its Representatives at times and dates mutually acceptable to the parties, to inspect, review and make copies of such records as such party may deem necessary or appropriate from time to time, such activities to be conducted during normal business hours at such party’s expense; and (iii) to give the other party reasonable written notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any such books and records and, if the other party so requests, to allow the other party to take possession of such books and records.

paid 50% by the Company Shareholders on the one hand, and 50% by Parent, on the other hand, and Parent and the Company Shareholders will cooperate, at their own expense, in filing all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all such Transfer Taxes and in preparing, executing and filing any Tax Returns with respect to such Transfer Taxes.

Section 8.04 Refunds. Except to the extent a Tax refund or credit is taken into account in the determination of Closing Working Capital, the amount of any Tax refunds or credits relating to Taxes paid prior to the Closing Date by or with respect to the Company or its Subsidiaries for taxable periods (or portions thereof) ending on or prior to the Closing Date or with respect to which indemnification payments have been made by the Company Shareholders that are actually received after the Closing Date or applied to offset any Taxes of Parent, the Company or any of their Affiliates shall be for the account of the Company Shareholders. Parent shall pay, or cause to be paid, to the Company Shareholders (allocated based on their respective Pro Rata Share) the amount of such refund or credit, within ten (10) days after such refund is received or after such credit or refund is used to offset another Tax liability, as the case may be.

Section 8.05 Adjustment to Merger Consideration. Any payments made pursuant to Section 2.18, Section 8.04 or Article 11 shall be treated as an adjustment to the Merger Consideration for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Applicable Law.

Section 8.06 Other Tax Matters.

(a) The Company Shareholders, the Company, Parent, Merger Sub and Sister Sub intend that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, (i) the payment of the Company Shareholder Notes (other than the dividend payable to CenTra, Inc. in the amount of $24,500,000, the payment of which shall be treated as in satisfaction of the remaining balance of the dividend payable to CenTra, Inc. declared on December 29, 2006) shall be treated as the repayment of promissory notes previously distributed by the Company to the holder thereof (or its assignor if applicable) and (ii) the Merger and the Subsequent Merger, taken together as a single integrated transaction shall be treated as a “reorganization” under Section 368(a) of the Code (to which each of Parent and the Company are to be parties under Section 368(b) of the Code) in which the Company is treated as merging directly with and into Parent, with the Company Common Stock converted in such merger into the Merger Consideration. Each party shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, treat the Merger and Subsequent Merger for all Tax purposes consistent with this Section 8.06 unless required to do otherwise by Applicable Law.

(b) The Company, Parent, Merger Sub and Sister Sub hereby adopt this Agreement as a plan of reorganization within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Sections 1.368-2(g) and 1.368-3(a).

(c) Parent and the Company will (i) use reasonable best efforts to cause the Merger and the Subsequent Merger to constitute a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code and (ii) not take any action after the date hereof that could reasonably be expected to prevent or impede the Merger and the Subsequent Merger from qualifying as a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code.

(d) The Company shall not, and shall not allow any of its Subsidiaries to, enter into any transaction or take any action prior to Closing on the Closing Date that is outside the ordinary course of business (other than any transaction or action contemplated by this Agreement or directed by Parent) and that would reasonably be expected to have material adverse Tax consequences to Parent or any of its Affiliates (including the Company and any of its Subsidiaries) in a Tax period (or portion thereof) beginning on or after the Closing Date.

(a) From and after the Closing (but subject to the terms and conditions of this Article 11), the Company Shareholders and MJM, jointly and severally, shall hold harmless and indemnify each of the Parent Indemnitees from and against any Damages which are suffered or incurred by any of the Parent Indemnitees which arise from or are a result of: (i) any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company in Article 3 of this Agreement or by the Company Shareholders in Article 4 of this Agreement, in each such case, as of the date of this Agreement, but solely to the extent such breach (A) has not been cured prior to the Effective Time or (B) has caused a Parent Indemnitee to suffer Damages following the Effective Time (which for purposes of this clause (i)(B) shall not assume any Contract renewals, extensions, modifications or amendments thereof) (except for such representations and warranties that address matters only as of a particular time, which need only be accurate as of such time), (ii) any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company in Article 3 of this Agreement or by the Company Shareholders in Article 4 of this Agreement, in each such case, as of the Closing Date as if made on the Closing Date (except for such representations and warranties that address matters only as of a particular time, which need only be accurate as of such time); and (iii) any breach of any covenant or obligation of the Company Shareholders as set forth in this Agreement.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, but subject to Sections 11.02(c) and 11.02(d), even if a Parent Indemnitee would otherwise be entitled to recover Damages pursuant to this Agreement, no Parent Indemnitee shall be entitled to any indemnification for any Damages pursuant to Section 11.02(a)(i) or Section 11.02(a)(ii) and neither the Company Shareholders nor MJM shall be required to make any indemnification payment for any Damages pursuant to Section 11.02(a)(i) or Section 11.02(a)(ii) unless and until such time as the total amount of all Damages that have been suffered or incurred by any one or more of the Parent Indemnitees on a cumulative basis, exceeds an amount equal to $2,768,180 (the “Basket”) in the aggregate, in which case, the Parent Indemnitees shall be entitled to recover only the amount of such cumulative Damages in excess of the Basket.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, but subject to Section 11.02(d), in no event shall the Company Shareholders’ and/or MJM’s aggregate liability arising out of or relating to Section 11.02(a)(i) or Section 11.02(a)(ii) exceed an amount equal to $27,681,804 (the “Cap”).

(d) The limitations set forth in Sections 11.02(b) and 11.02(c) shall not apply to any claim for indemnification made pursuant to Section 11.02(a)(i) or Section 11.02(a)(ii), in each such case, to the extent such claim arises from or is a result of any breach of a Company Fundamental Representation, Shareholder Fundamental Representation, or the representations and warranties contained in Section 3.18(l); provided, however, that the aggregate maximum liability of the Company Shareholders and MJM collectively for any breach of this Agreement or otherwise hereunder shall not exceed $276,818,042, inclusive of liability in respect of claims made for indemnification under this Section 11.02.

Section 11.03 Indemnification by Parent.

(a) From and after the Closing (but subject to the terms and conditions of this Article 11), Parent shall hold harmless and indemnify each of the Shareholder Indemnitees from and against any Damages which are suffered or incurred by any of the Shareholder Indemnitees which arise from or are a result of: (i) any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty made by Parent in Article 5 of this Agreement as of the date of this Agreement, but solely to the extent such breach (A) has not been cured prior to the Effective Time or (B) has caused a Shareholder Indemnitee to suffer Damages following the Effective Time (except for such representations and warranties that address matters only as of a particular time, which need only be accurate as of such time); (ii) any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty made by Parent in Article 5 of this Agreement as of the Closing Date as if made on the Closing Date (except for such representations and warranties that address matters only as of a particular time, which need only be accurate as of such time); and (iii) any breach of any covenant or obligation of (x) Parent, Merger Sub or Sister Sub and/or (y) the Company, in each such case, as set forth in this Agreement.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, but subject to Sections 11.03(c) and 11.03(d), even if a Shareholder Indemnitee would otherwise be entitled to recover Damages pursuant to this Agreement, no Shareholder Indemnitee shall be entitled to any indemnification for any Damages pursuant to Section 11.03(a)(i) or Section 11.03(a)(ii) and Parent shall not be required to make any indemnification payment for any Damages pursuant to Section 11.03(a)(i) or Section 11.03(a)(ii) unless and until such time as the total amount of all Damages that have been suffered or incurred by any one or more of the Shareholder Indemnitees on a cumulative basis, exceeds the Basket in the aggregate, in which case, the Shareholder Indemnitees shall be entitled to recover only the amount of such cumulative Damages in excess of the Basket.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, but subject to Section 11.03(d), in no event shall Parent’s aggregate liability arising out of or relating to Section 11.03(a)(i) or Section 11.03(a)(ii) exceed an amount equal to the Cap.

(d) The limitations set forth in Sections 11.03(b) and 11.03(c) shall not apply to any claim for indemnification made pursuant to Section 11.03(a)(i) or Section 11.03(a)(ii), in each such case, to the extent such claim arises from or is a result of any breach of a Parent Fundamental Representation; provided, however, that claims made for indemnification that are subject to this Section 11.03(d), the aggregate maximum liability of Parent for breaches of this Agreement or otherwise hereunder shall not exceed $276,818,042, inclusive of liability in respect of claims made for indemnification under this Section 11.03.

Section 11.04 Claims and Procedures.

(a) In order for any Person to be entitled to seek indemnification under this Article 11 (an “Indemnitee”), such Indemnitee shall deliver a written certificate signed by any officer or director of the Indemnitee (or if the Indemnitee is an individual Person, signed by the Indemnitee) (any certificate delivered in accordance with the provisions of this Section 11.04(a), a “Claim Certificate”) to the party from whom such indemnification is sought (the “Indemnitor”), as promptly as reasonably practicable after it acquires knowledge of the fact, event or circumstance giving rise to the claim for Damages (and in any event, no later than twenty (20) Business Days after written notice of such claim is delivered to the Indemnitee if such claim is a Third Party Claim (as defined below)), specifying in reasonable detail (to the extent known) the nature of, the facts and legal basis for, the amount (if known) of, such claim asserted, and the provisions of this Agreement upon which such claim for indemnification is made. Failure to deliver a Claim Certificate in compliance with this Section 11.04 in a timely manner as specified in the immediately preceding sentence shall not be deemed a waiver of the Indemnitee’s right to indemnification hereunder for Damages in connection with such claim except to the extent the Indemnitor shall have been prejudiced as a result of such failure. The Claim Certificate shall:

(i) state that the applicable Indemnitee has a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Article 11 and expressly identify the provisions of this Agreement upon which such claim for indemnification is made in reasonable detail (including the specific representations, warranties and/or covenants that are alleged to be inaccurate or alleged to have been breached);

(ii) to the extent possible, contain a good faith non-binding, preliminary estimate of the amount to which such Indemnitee claims to be entitled to receive, which shall be the amount of Damages such Indemnitee claims to have incurred or suffered or could reasonably be expected to incur or suffer; and

(iii) specify in reasonable detail (based upon the information then possessed by Indemnitee) the facts known to the Indemnitee giving rise to such claim.

(b) As promptly as practicable after delivery of a Claim Certificate to an Indemnitor, the Indemnitee which has provided such Claim Certificate shall supply and make available to the Indemnitor all relevant information in its or its Affiliates’ possession relating to the claim identified in such Claim Certificate (except to the extent that such action would result in a loss of attorney-client privilege or protections of the work product doctrine; provided, that such Indemnitee shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide such information in such format to the Indemnitor, or on an outside counsel only basis, in a manner which would not result in the loss of such attorney-client privilege or work product doctrine) and shall cooperate with the Indemnitor. Without limiting the foregoing, such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the Indemnitor’s request) the provision to the Indemnitor of records and information which are reasonably relevant to such claim, and making employees and other representatives and advisors available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder.

Section 11.05 No Contribution. No Controlling Shareholder shall have, or be entitled to exercise or assert (or attempt to exercise or assert), and each Controlling Shareholder hereby waives, any right of contribution or right of indemnity against Transitory Surviving Corporation, Sister Sub, or the Surviving Company in connection with any indemnification obligation under Article 11 of this Agreement.

Section 11.06 Defense of Third-Party Claims.

(a) Indemnitor shall have the right, but not the obligation, upon written notice to the Indemnitee within twenty (20) Business Days following receipt of notice thereof, to investigate, contest, assume the defense of (with counsel reasonably selected by the Indemnitor) or settle any claim or demand made, or any action, Proceeding or investigation instituted, by any Person not a party to this Agreement for which the Indemnitee has sought indemnification pursuant to this Article 11 (a “Third Party Claim”); provided, however, that the Indemnitee may, at its option and at its own expense, participate in the investigation, contesting, defense or settlement of any such Third Party Claim through Representatives and counsel of its own choosing; and, provided further, however, that the Indemnitor shall not settle any Third Party Claim unless (i) such settlement is on exclusively monetary terms and the Indemnitor shall pay or cause to be paid all amounts arising out of such settlement either concurrently or with the effectiveness thereof, (ii) such settlement includes a complete and irrevocable release executed by all Persons who brought such Third Party Claim, which release shall release the Indemnitee from liability or (iii) the Indemnitor obtains the written consent of the Indemnitee. Indemnitor shall not be liable to the Indemnitee for legal or other fees and expenses incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with the defense of any Third Party Claim; provided that the Indemnitor shall be liable for the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses of one national counsel and one reasonable local counsel employed by the Indemnitee for (x) any period commencing ten (10) Business Days following Indemnitor’s receipt of a Claim Certificate with respect to the matter for which indemnification is being sought by the Indemnitee, during which the Indemnitor has failed to assume the defense thereof pursuant to this Section 11.06(a) and (y) for any period during which there exists an actual conflict of interest (based on written advice of counsel) by the representation of the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee by the same counsel (it being understood, however, that for purposes of clause (y), the Indemnitor shall control such defense). Whether or not the Indemnitor shall have assumed the defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnitee shall not settle, compromise, discharge or pay any Third Party Claim for which it seeks indemnification hereunder without the prior written consent of the Indemnitor.

(b) The Indemnitor shall be entitled to participate in (but not to control) the defense of any Third Party Claim which it has not elected to assume the defense of with its own counsel and at its own expense.

(c) Parent and the Company Shareholders, as applicable, shall make available to each other all relevant information in their possession relating to any Third Party Claim (except to the extent that such action would result in a loss of attorney-client privilege; provided, that they shall each use commercially reasonable efforts to provide such information in such format to the

other, or on an outside counsel only basis, in a manner which would not result in the loss of such attorney-client privilege) and shall cooperate with each other in the defense thereof. Without limiting the foregoing, such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the Indemnitor’s request) the provision to the Indemnitor of records and information which are reasonably relevant to such Third Party Claim, and making employees and other Representatives and advisors available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in the event of any Third Party Claim in respect of Taxes or a Tax Return with respect to which the Company Shareholders and/or MJM may have an indemnification obligation pursuant to this Article 11 (a “Tax Claim”), the Company Shareholders and MJM shall be entitled at their sole cost and expense to control any such Tax Claim and may make all decisions taken in connection with such control; provided, that the Company Shareholders and MJM shall not settle or otherwise resolve any such Tax Claim without the consent of Parent not to be unreasonably withheld. Furthermore, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, this Section 11.06 shall not apply to any audit, examination or other proceeding with respect to any Flow-Through Returns, control of which shall be governed exclusively by Section 8.01.

Section 11.07 Exercise of Remedies by Indemnitees Other Than Parent or Shareholder Representative. No Indemnitee (other than Parent, Shareholder Representative or any successor thereto or assign thereof) shall be permitted to assert any indemnification claim or exercise any other remedy under this Agreement unless Parent or Shareholder Representative, respectively (or any successor thereto or assign thereof) shall have consented to the assertion of such indemnification claim or the exercise of such other remedy.

Section 11.08 Mitigation. Each Indemnitee shall take commercially reasonable steps to mitigate all Damages after becoming aware of any event which could reasonably be expected to give rise to any Damages that are indemnifiable hereunder. In the event that an Indemnitor makes any payment to any Indemnitee for indemnification for which such Indemnitee could have collected on a claim against a third party (including under any contract and any insurance claims), the Indemnitor shall (at its own sole cost and expense) be entitled to pursue claims and conduct litigation on behalf of such Indemnitee and any of its successors, to pursue and collect on any indemnification or other remedy available to such Indemnitee thereunder with respect to such claim and generally to be subrogated to the rights of such Indemnitee. The Indemnitee shall, and shall cause its Affiliates (including the Company and its Subsidiaries) to, cooperate with the Indemnitor, at the Indemnitor’s sole cost and expense, with respect to any such effort to pursue and collect with respect thereto.

Section 11.09 Net of Tax Benefits. The amount of Damages for which indemnification is provided under this Article 11 shall be reduced to take into account any net Tax benefit actually realized (determined on a with and without basis) by the Indemnitee arising from the incurrence or payment of any such Damages or the circumstances related thereto, in each case, in the tax year that includes the incurrence or payment. If any such net Tax benefits are actually realized after the applicable indemnity payment has been made, the Indemnitee shall make a payment to the Indemnitor in an amount equal to such net Tax benefit within 10 Business Days after such net Tax benefit is actually realized.

Section 11.10 Sole Remedy. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that, from and after the Closing, absent fraud, its sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims relating (directly or indirectly) to the subject matter of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, regardless of the legal theory under which such liability or obligation may be sought to be imposed, whether sounding in contract or tort, or whether at law or in equity, or otherwise, shall be the indemnification provisions contained in this Article 11, which are intended to provide the sole and exclusive remedy of the parties following the Closing as to all Damages any Indemnitee may incur arising from or relating to this Agreement, the Merger or Merger Transactions, and absent fraud, the parties shall have no other remedy or recourse with respect to any of the foregoing, other than pursuant to this Article 11 (it being understood that nothing in this Article 11 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall affect the parties’ rights to specific performance or other equitable remedies to enforce the covenants referred to in this Agreement that are to be performed after the Closing).

Section 12.03 Amendments, Extensions and Waivers.

(a) Any provision of this Agreement may be amended, extended with respect to the time for performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the parties, or waived prior to the Effective Time if, but only if, such amendment, extension or waiver is in writing and is signed, in the case of an amendment or extension, by each party hereto, which in the case of Parent shall require the written approval of the Special Committee (in the case of an amendment, extension or waiver prior to the Effective Time) or the Audit Committee (in the case of an amendment, extension or waiver following the Effective Time).

(b) No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right, power, remedy or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power, remedy or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by Applicable Law.

Section 12.04 Expenses. Except as otherwise provided herein, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, including all third-party legal, accounting, financial advisory, consulting or other fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Merger Transactions and the other transactions contemplated hereby and thereby shall be paid by the party incurring such cost or expense.

Section 12.05 Disclosure Schedule References. The parties hereto agree that any matter or reference in a particular Section of the Company Disclosure Schedule or Parent Disclosure Schedule shall be deemed to be an exception to (or, as applicable, a disclosure for purposes of) (i) the representations and warranties (or covenants, as applicable) of the relevant party that are contained in the corresponding Section of this Agreement and (ii) any other representations and warranties of such party that is contained in this Agreement if the relevance of that matter or reference as an exception to (or a disclosure for purposes of) such representations and warranties would be reasonably apparent to a person who has read that matter or reference and such representations and warranties (or covenants, as applicable).

Section 12.06 Binding Effect; Benefit; Assignment; Parent Actions.

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Except with respect to

Section 7.07, no provision of this Agreement is intended to confer any rights, benefits, remedies, obligations or liabilities hereunder upon any Person other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

(b) No party may assign, delegate or otherwise transfer, in whole or in part, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, and any such purported assignment, delegation or transfer shall be null and void and without any force or effect, in each such case, without the prior written consent of each other party hereto.

(c) The parties acknowledge that the charter of the Audit Committee requires the Audit Committee to review the material facts of any proposed related person transaction and, following the dissolution of the Special Committee, the enforcement of any rights or obligations under this Agreement shall be reviewed by the Audit Committee prior to any action being taken by Parent.

Section 12.07 Arbitration; Governing Law.

(a) Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereunder or a breach thereof (each, a “Dispute”) shall be resolved by binding and confidential arbitration. Parent, on the one hand, and the Company Shareholders and MJM, on the other hand, may initiate arbitration under this Section 12.07 by filing a written arbitration demand with the regional office of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) closest to Warren, Michigan and contemporaneously providing a copy of such demand to the other party at the applicable address(es) provided in Section 12.02. The arbitration shall be governed by and conducted pursuant to the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules, including the Procedures for Large, Complex Commercial Disputes and the Optional Rules for Emergency Measures of Protection; provided, however, there shall be three arbitrators. One arbitrator will be selected by each of Parent, on the one hand, and the Company Stockholders, on the other hand, promptly (and in any event, within fifteen (15) Business Days of the receipt of a notice of arbitration demand) (which arbitrator must be an Eligible Arbitrator) and the two Eligible Arbitrators selected by such parties shall promptly (and in any event, within five (5) Business Days after the initial two Eligible Arbitrators have been selected) select a third Eligible Arbitrator from the American Arbitration Association’s Large, Complex Commercial Case Panel. Any arbitrator not timely appointed by the parties or otherwise under this Section 12.07 shall be appointed by the AAA in accordance with the listing, ranking and striking method in the Rules, and in any such procedure, each of Parent, on the one hand, and the Company Shareholders and MJM, on the other hand, shall be given up to three (3) peremptory strikes and an unlimited number of strikes for cause. Any controversy concerning whether a Dispute is arbitrable, whether arbitration has been waived, whether a party to or assignee of this Agreement is bound to arbitrate, or as to the interpretation, applicability or enforceability of this Section 12.07 shall be determined by the arbitrators. The place of the arbitration shall be Warren, Michigan, or at a location mutually agreed upon by the parties. Except as may be required by Applicable Law and for communications among the parties and their respective counsel (and persons retained by counsel for the purpose of assisting in any proceeding, who shall agree to be bound by a reasonable confidentiality agreement), all arbitration proceedings commenced hereunder shall be confidential.

(b) This Agreement will be governed by, and in the event of any arbitration, the arbitrators will apply, the substantive law (and the law of remedies, if applicable) of the State of Michigan without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of law that would require the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction.

(c) In the event the Dispute involves (i) valuation of a liability under this Agreement, (ii) an amount in controversy in a Dispute, or (iii) an amount of Damages following a determination of liability, the arbitration shall proceed in the following manner: Each of Parent, on the one hand, and the Company Shareholders and MJM, on the other hand, shall submit to the arbitration panel constituted in accordance with this Section 12.07, and exchange with each other, on a schedule to be determined by the arbitrators, a proposed valuation, amount or calculation of Damages (each, a “Proposal”), as the case may be, together with a statement setting forth such party’s explanation as to why its Proposal is accurate, along with all supporting documents or other evidence upon which such statement relies. The arbitration panel, within thirty (30) Business Days of receiving such Proposals, statements and supporting documents or other evidence, shall choose between the Proposals and shall be limited to awarding only one of the Proposals submitted. The arbitration panel shall supply a reasoned written opinion supporting its determination. Such determination shall be final and binding on the parties to such arbitration and there shall be no right of appeal therefrom.

(d) Each party shall pay its own fees and expenses for the arbitration and the fees and expenses of the arbitrators shall be equally shared by the parties.

(e) Any arbitration proceeding shall be concluded in a maximum of three (3) months from the commencement of the arbitration. The parties involved in the proceeding may agree in writing (at each party’s discretion) to extend the arbitration period if necessary to appropriately resolve the controversy, claim or alleged breach.

(f) Unless otherwise agreed in writing, the parties will continue to honor all other commitments under this Agreement and each Ancillary Agreement during the course of arbitration pursuant to the provisions of this Section 12.07 with respect to all matters not subject to such arbitration.

(g) The arbitrators may consolidate an arbitration under this Agreement with any arbitration arising under or relating to the Ancillary Agreements (other than the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement) or any other agreement between the parties entered into pursuant hereto, as the case may be, if the subject of the controversy, claim or alleged breach arises out of or relates essentially to the same set of facts or transactions. Such consolidated arbitration shall be determined by the arbitrator appointed for the arbitration proceeding that was commenced first in time and shall be subject to the provisions of Section 12.07(a).

(h) In the event that preliminary or permanent injunctive relief is necessary or desirable in order to prevent a party from acting contrary to this Agreement or to prevent irreparable harm while an arbitration proceeding is pending or an award is subject to confirmation or enforcement, then each of Parent, Sister Sub and Merger Sub, on the one hand, and the Company and the Company Shareholders and MJM, on the other hand, is authorized and entitled to commence a lawsuit solely to obtain equitable relief against the other pending the

completion of the arbitration in a court having jurisdiction over the parties. Each party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally (i) submits, for itself and its property, to, and (ii) hereby consents to, the jurisdiction of the federal and state courts (and of the appropriate appellate courts) for the State of Michigan, Macomb County, for such purpose. Process in any action or proceeding referred to in the preceding sentence may be served on any party anywhere in the world, and each of the parties hereto agrees that service of process, summons, notice or document by registered mail addressed to it at the applicable address set forth in Section 12.02 above shall be effective service of process for any such action or proceeding. Each party agrees that (x) it will not attempt to deny or defeat personal jurisdiction or venue in any such court by motion or otherwise, and (y) it will not bring any action relating to this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in any court other than any such court.

Section 12.08 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION, PROCEEDING, ARBITRATION, CLAIM OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, OR THE ACTIONS OF PARENT, SISTER SUB, MERGER SUB, THE COMPANY, THE COMPANY SHAREHOLDERS, MJM AND/OR THE SHAREHOLDER REPRESENTATIVE IN THE NEGOTIATION, EXECUTION, PERFORMANCE AND ENFORCEMENT OF THIS AGREEMENT.

Section 12.09 Shareholder Representative.

(a) Each of the Company Shareholders hereby appoints (and by his execution of this Agreement as Shareholder Representative, Matthew T. Moroun hereby accepts his appointment) as the true, exclusive and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact, of the Company Shareholders to act in the name, place and stead of the Company Shareholders in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement, and to act on behalf of the Company Shareholders in any Proceeding or Dispute involving this Agreement, to do or refrain from doing all such further acts and things, and to execute all such documents on behalf of the Company Shareholders as the Shareholder Representative shall deem necessary or appropriate in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the power:

(i) to act for the Company Shareholders with regard to matters pertaining to indemnification referred to in this Agreement, including the power to compromise any indemnity claim on behalf of the Company Shareholders and to transact matters of arbitration or other Proceedings;

(ii) to execute and deliver all amendments, waivers, Ancillary Agreements, stock powers, certificates and documents that the Shareholder Representative deems necessary or appropriate in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement;

(iii) to execute and deliver all amendments and waivers to this Agreement that the Shareholder Representative deems necessary or appropriate, whether prior to, at or after the Closing;

(iv) to receive funds for the payment of expenses of the Company Shareholders and apply such funds in payment for such expenses; and

(v) to do or refrain from doing any further act or deed on behalf of the Company Shareholders that the Shareholder Representative deems necessary or appropriate in his sole discretion relating to the subject matter of this Agreement as fully and completely as the Company Shareholders could do if personally present.

(b) The Shareholder Representative may be removed or replaced only upon delivery of written notice to Parent by each of the Company Shareholders. Parent, the Surviving Company and any other Person may conclusively and absolutely rely, without inquiry, upon any written instrument delivered by the Shareholder Representative in all matters referred to herein. No bond shall be required of the Shareholder Representative, and the Shareholder Representative shall not receive compensation for its, his or her services; provided, that the Shareholder Representative shall be entitled to reimbursements of expenses pursuant to Section 12.09(d). The Shareholder Representative shall act for the Company Shareholders on all of the matters set forth in this Agreement in the manner the Shareholder Representative believes to be in the best interest of the Company Shareholders and consistent with the obligations under this Agreement, but the Shareholder Representative shall not be responsible or liable to the Company Shareholders for any Damages the Company Shareholders may suffer by the performance of its duties under this Agreement, other than Damage arising from willful misconduct in the performance of his, her or its duties under this Agreement. The Shareholder Representative shall incur no liability to the Company Shareholders with respect to any action taken, omitted to be taken or suffered by them in reliance upon any notice, direction, instruction, consent, statement or other documents believed by him, her or it to be genuinely and duly authorized, nor for any other action or inaction except its own willful misconduct. The Shareholder Representative may, in all questions arising under this Agreement, or any other agreement, rely on the advice of counsel and the Shareholder Representative shall not be liable to the Company Shareholders for anything done, omitted or suffered in good faith by the Shareholder Representative based on such advice. The Shareholder Representative is authorized by the Company Shareholders to incur expenses on behalf of the Company Shareholders in acting hereunder. The parties hereto understand and agree that the Shareholder Representative is acting solely on behalf of and as agent for the Company Shareholders and not in his or her personal capacity.

(c) Each Company Shareholder agrees to indemnify the Shareholder Representative for its respective Pro Rata Share of any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of any legal counsel retained by the Shareholder Representative) or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on or incurred by the Shareholder Representative in any way relating to or arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the Shareholder Representative’s duties hereunder or this Agreement or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the enforcement of any of the terms hereof or thereof; provided, however, that no Company Shareholder shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent they arise from the Shareholder Representative’s willful misconduct.

(d) All reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses, including legal fees and expenses and fees, in each such case, incurred by the Shareholder Representative in fulfilling the duties of the Shareholder Representative as agent for the Company Shareholders hereunder shall be paid or reimbursed by the Company Shareholders based on their Pro Rata Share. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Shareholder Representative is authorized to deduct from any payment due to the Company Shareholders pursuant to this Agreement the amount of any reimbursement.

Section 12.10 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by the parties by facsimile or electronic mail transmission in Portable Document Format (.pdf) and in any number of separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

Section 12.11 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements and the Confidentiality Agreement constitute the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both oral and written, between the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement.

Section 12.12 Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction, or under Applicable Law, to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner adverse to any party. Upon such a determination that any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is invalid, void or unenforceable, the parties 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 contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

Section 12.13 Specific Performance.

(a) The parties agree that irreparable damage would 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 any breach of this Agreement would not be adequately compensated by monetary damages. Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 12.13, including the limitations set forth herein, the parties acknowledge and agree that, prior to the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.01, the parties shall in the event of any breach or threatened breach by the Company or Company Shareholders, on the one hand, or Parent, Merger Sub or Sister Sub, on the other hand, of any of their respective covenants or obligations set forth in this Agreement, the Company and the Company Shareholders, on the one hand, and Parent, Merger Sub and Sister Sub, on the other hand, shall to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement by the other, as applicable, and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to

enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of the other under this Agreement, without proof of actual damage or inadequacy of legal remedy. The pursuit of specific enforcement by any party hereto shall not be deemed to be an election of remedies or waiver of the right to pursue any other right or remedy to which such party may be entitled.

(b) Any and all remedies herein 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.

(c) Each of the Company and the Company Shareholders, on the one hand, and Parent, Sister Sub and Merger Sub, on the other hand, hereby agrees not to raise any objections to the availability of the equitable remedy of specific performance to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement by the other party(ies), as applicable, and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of such party under this Agreement all in accordance with the terms of this Section 12.13. Any party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with such order or injunction in accordance with the terms of this Section 12.13. Each party further agrees that (i) by seeking the remedies provided for in this Section 12.13, a party shall not in any respect waive its right to seek any other form of relief that may be available to such party under this Agreement in the event that this Agreement has been terminated or in the event that the remedies provided for in this Section 12.13 are not available or otherwise are not granted and (ii) nothing set forth in this Section 12.13 shall require any party hereto to institute any proceeding for (or limit any party’s right to institute any proceeding for) specific performance hereunder prior to, or as a condition to, exercising any termination right under Article 10 (and pursuing damages after such termination in accordance with this Agreement), nor shall the commencement of any arbitration or legal proceeding pursuant to Section 12.07 or this Section 12.13 or anything set forth in Section 12.07 or this Section 12.13 restrict or limit any party’s right thereafter to terminate this Agreement in accordance with the terms of Article 10 or pursue any other remedies under this Agreement that may be available then or thereafter.

Williams may represent any or all of the Company Shareholders, MJM and/or the Shareholder Representative in such dispute even though the interests of the Company Shareholders, MJM and/or the Shareholder Representative may be directly adverse to Parent, the Transitory Surviving Corporation and the Surviving Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries, and even though (x) STB represents Parent in connection with antitrust matters related to the transactions contemplated and (y) STB and Mitchell, Williams formerly may have represented the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in a matter substantially related to such dispute. Parent further agrees that, in connection with any future dispute between Parent, the Transitory Surviving Corporation and the Surviving Company or any of their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and any of the Company Shareholders, MJM the Shareholder Representative or their respective Affiliates, on the other hand, with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, as to all communications among STB, Mitchell, Williams, the Company, any of its or Subsidiaries and any Company Shareholders, MJM or the Shareholder Representative that relate in any way to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the attorney-client privilege and the expectation of client confidence belongs to the Company Shareholder, MJM or Shareholder Representative, as the case may be, and may be controlled by the Company Shareholder, MJM or Shareholder Representative, as the case may be, and shall not pass to or be claimed by Parent, the Transitory Surviving Corporation and the Surviving Company or any of its or their Subsidiaries.
