Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein and on the basis of the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained herein, at the Closing, (i) Vista AIV shall sell to Purchaser, and Purchaser will purchase from Vista AIV, (x) all of the Units of the Company less (y) the Units of the Company distributed by Vista AIV to Vista Blocker as described in clause E of the recitals of this Agreement, which shall constitute all of the Units of the Company held by Vista AIV, (ii) each MIU Holder shall sell to Purchaser, and Purchaser will purchase from each MIU Holder, severally and not jointly, the number of MIUs of the Company set forth across from such MIU Holder’s name on the “Equity Interests Schedule,” (iii) the Vista Seller shall sell to Purchaser, and Purchaser will purchase from the Vista Seller the Vista Shares, and (iv) the Bregal Seller shall sell to Purchaser, and Purchaser will purchase from the Bregal Seller, the Bregal Shares; in each case, free and clear of all Liens (other than any restrictions under the Securities Act and state securities laws or Liens created by or resulting from actions of Purchaser).

2.2 Purchase Price.

(a) The aggregate purchase price to be paid by Purchaser to the Sellers for the Equity Interests shall be an amount equal to the Initial Purchase Price.

(b) At the Closing, Purchaser shall pay, or cause to be paid, the Initial Purchase Price less (i) the Working Capital Escrow Amount, and (ii) the Indemnity Escrow Amount (such difference, the “Closing Payment Amount”) to the Sellers’ Representative (for the benefit of the Sellers in accordance with the Distribution Waterfall) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated by the Sellers’ Representative in writing on or prior to the Closing Date. The Closing Payment Amount, less (A) the portion of any expenses to be paid by the Sellers’ Representative in accordance with Section 9.4 attributable to the Sellers (which portion shall be based on the Distribution Waterfall), and (B) the aggregate portion of the Sellers’ Representative Expense Fund attributable to the Sellers as set forth on the Distribution Waterfall, shall be paid by the Sellers’ Representative to the Sellers in accordance with the Distribution Waterfall promptly following the Closing. In the event that a payment to an MIU Holder would otherwise be deferred pursuant to the terms of an MIU Agreement entered into by such MIU Holder with the Company, such payment will be withheld by Purchaser at the Closing and shall not be paid by Purchaser to such MIU Holder unless and until such MIU Holder becomes entitled to such payment pursuant to the terms and conditions of such MIU Agreement. In the event any such MIU Holder does not become entitled to such payment, Purchaser shall remit such payment to the Sellers’ Representative (for the benefit of the Sellers in accordance with the Distribution Waterfall) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts previously designated by the Sellers’ Representative in writing.

(c) At the Closing, Purchaser shall deposit the Working Capital Escrow Amount and the Indemnity Escrow Amount with the Escrow Agent. The Working Capital Escrow Amount and the Indemnity Escrow Amount shall be held in trust by the Escrow Agent pursuant to the terms of

2.3 Closing Transactions.

(a) Closing. The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall take place at the offices of Kirkland & Ellis LLP, 555 California Street, Suite 2700, San Francisco, California, commencing at 10:00 a.m. local time on the second Business Day following the satisfaction or waiver of all conditions of the parties to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (other than the conditions with respect to actions the respective parties will take at the Closing itself), or at such other place or on such other date as is mutually agreeable to Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative; provided that such closing shall not occur prior to October 1, 2014. The date of the Closing is referred to herein as the “Closing Date.”

(b) Closing Deliveries. Subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at or prior to the Closing:

(i) Purchaser shall deliver (A) the Closing Payment Amount to the Sellers’ Representative, and (B) the Working Capital Escrow Amount and the Indemnity Escrow Amount to the Escrow Agent, in each case, pursuant to Section 2.2(b);

(ii) Purchaser shall deliver all other items required to be delivered by Purchaser at the Closing as specified in Section 3.1;

(c) Purchaser shall repay, or cause to be repaid, on behalf of the Company Group, the Repaid Indebtedness, and the Company shall deliver to Purchaser the appropriate pay off letters; and

2.4 Repaid Indebtedness; Sellers’ Transaction Expenses. It is contemplated by the parties that, upon the Closing, all Company Indebtedness, which is listed on the “Repaid Indebtedness Schedule” (to the extent not paid by the Company Group prior to Closing) (the “Repaid Indebtedness”), will be fully repaid and that such repayment will be funded by Purchaser. In order to facilitate such repayment, prior to the Closing, the Company Group shall obtain payoff letters for the Repaid Indebtedness, which payoff letters shall acknowledge the aggregate principal amount and all accrued but unpaid interest constituting the Repaid Indebtedness. In addition, it is contemplated by the parties hereto that, upon the Closing, all of the Sellers’ Transaction Expenses (to the extent not paid by the Company Group prior to the Closing), which shall be set forth on the “Transaction Expenses Schedule”, will be fully paid, and that such payment will be funded by Purchaser. Sellers shall cause to be delivered to Purchaser, no later than one (1) Business Day prior to the Closing, the “Repaid Indebtedness Schedule” and the “Transaction Expenses Schedule”, in each case which shall set forth payees, amounts to be paid to each payee, and wire instructions for each payee to facilitate the repayment of the Repaid Indebtedness and payment of the Sellers’ Transaction Expenses. Subject to the satisfaction of the Company Group’s



	16

conditions, covenants and obligations to be satisfied prior to the Closing, in connection with the Closing, Purchaser shall make payment of the Sellers’ Transaction Expenses (to the extent not paid by the Company Group prior to the Closing) on the Closing Date in order to discharge the amounts payable thereunder.

2.5 Working Capital and Cash Adjustment.

(a) Determination of Closing Adjustment. No later than one (1) Business Day prior to the Closing, the Company shall provide Purchaser with its good faith estimate of Working Capital as of the close of business on the day prior to the Closing Date (“Estimated Working Capital”), its good faith estimate of the aggregate amount of all Cash of the Company Group as of the close of business on the day prior to the Closing Date (“Estimated Cash”), and the amount, if any, by which the Initial Purchase Price is to be adjusted as a result thereof.

(b) Determination of Post-Closing Adjustment. No later than 90 days following the Closing, Purchaser shall deliver to the Sellers’ Representative the calculation of the actual Working Capital as of the close of business on the day prior to the Closing Date (“Actual Working Capital”) (prepared in accordance with the “Working Capital Schedule”) and a calculation of the actual Cash of the Company Group as of the close of business on the day prior to the Closing Date (“Actual Cash”).

(i) No later than 30 days following the delivery by Purchaser of the calculation of Actual Working Capital and Actual Cash, the Sellers’ Representative shall notify Purchaser in writing whether it accepts or disputes the accuracy of the calculation of Actual Working Capital and Actual Cash. During such 30 day period, the Sellers’ Representative and its agents shall be provided with such access to the financial books and records of Purchaser and the Company Group as well as any relevant work papers as it may reasonably request to enable it to evaluate the calculations of Actual Working Capital and Actual Cash prepared by Purchaser. If the Sellers’ Representative accepts the calculation of Actual Working Capital and Actual Cash determined pursuant to Section 2.5(b), or if the Sellers’ Representative fails within such 30 day period to notify Purchaser of any dispute with respect thereto, then the calculation of Actual Working Capital determined pursuant to Section 2.5(b) shall be the “Final Working Capital” and the calculation of Actual Cash determined pursuant to Section 2.5(b) shall be the “Final Cash” which, in each case, shall be deemed final and conclusive and binding upon all parties in all respects.

(ii) If the Sellers’ Representative disputes the accuracy of the calculation of Actual Working Capital or Actual Cash, the Sellers’ Representative shall provide written notice to Purchaser no later than 30 days following the delivery by Purchaser to the Sellers’ Representative of the calculation of Actual Working Capital and Actual Cash (the “Dispute Notice”), setting forth in reasonable detail those items that the Sellers’ Representative disputes. During the 30 day period following delivery of a Dispute Notice, Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative shall negotiate in good faith with a view to resolving their disagreements over the disputed items. During such 30 day period and until the final determination of Actual Working Capital and/or Actual Cash in accordance with this Section 2.5(c)(ii) or Section 2.5(c)(iii), as the case may be (as so determined, or as



	17

determined pursuant to Section 2.5(c)(i) above, “Final Working Capital” and “Final Cash,” respectively), the Sellers’ Representative and its agents shall be provided with such access to the financial books and records of the Company Group and Purchaser as it may reasonably request to enable it to address all matters set forth in any Dispute Notice. If the parties resolve their differences over the disputed items in accordance with the foregoing procedure, Final Working Capital and/or Final Cash shall be the amounts agreed upon by them. If the parties fail to resolve their differences over the disputed items within such 30 day period, then Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative shall forthwith jointly request that a nationally recognized independent public accounting firm as shall be mutually agreed by the Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative (the “Accounting Arbitrator”) make a binding determination as to the disputed items in accordance with this Agreement.

(iii) The Accounting Arbitrator will under the terms of its engagement have no more than 30 days from the date of referral and no more than ten Business Days from the final submission of information and testimony by Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative within which to render its written decision with respect to the disputed items (and only with respect to any unresolved disputed items set forth in the Dispute Notice) and the final calculation of Actual Working Capital and/or Actual Cash shall be based solely on the resolution of such disputed items. The Accounting Arbitrator shall review such submissions and base its determination solely on such submissions. In resolving any disputed item, the Accounting Arbitrator may not assign a value to any item greater than the maximum value for such item claimed by either party or less than the minimum value for such item claimed by either party. The decision of the Accounting Arbitrator shall be deemed final and binding upon the parties and enforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction and the Accounting Arbitrator’s final calculation of Actual Working Capital shall be deemed the Final Working Capital and/or the Accounting Arbitrator’s final calculation of Actual Cash shall be deemed the Final Cash. The fees and expenses of the Accounting Arbitrator shall be allocated to be paid by Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Sellers’ Representative (on behalf of the Sellers), on the other, based upon the percentage that the portion of the contested amount not awarded to each party bears to the amount actually contested by such party, as determined by the Accounting Arbitrator.

(d) Payment following Calculation of Final Working Capital and Final Cash.

(i) Following the determination of the Final Working Capital and the Final Cash pursuant to Section 2.5(c), the Initial Purchase Price shall be recalculated by substituting the Final Working Capital for the Estimated Working Capital in Section 2.5(a), and the Final Cash for the Estimated Cash in Section 2.5(a) (the “Adjusted Purchase Price”) and if (after taking into account any Upward Closing Working Capital Adjustment or Downward Closing Working Capital Adjustment at the Closing):

(A) the Adjusted Purchase Price is greater than the Initial Purchase Price on the Closing Date (any such excess, the “Surplus Amount”), then (1) the Working Capital Escrow Amount plus the accrued interest thereon (the “Accrued Interest”) shall be released to the Sellers’ Representative (for the benefit of the Sellers pursuant to the Distribution Waterfall) and (2) Purchaser shall pay to the Sellers’ Representative (for the benefit of the Sellers pursuant to the Distribution Waterfall)



	18

an amount equal to the Surplus Amount minus the Accrued Interest by wire transfer of immediately available funds;

(B) the Initial Purchase Price on the Closing Date is greater than the Adjusted Purchase Price (any such excess, the “Shortfall Amount”), then (1) an amount equal to the Shortfall Amount plus the Accrued Interest on such Shortfall Amount shall be paid to Purchaser from the Working Capital Escrow Fund and then, to the extent the Working Capital Escrow Fund (after taking into account such Accrued Interest) is insufficient for payment of the full amount payable pursuant to this clause (B)(1), from the Indemnity Escrow Fund, and then, to the extent the Indemnity Escrow Fund is insufficient, Purchaser may seek recovery directly from the Sellers, and (2) the funds remaining (if any) in the Working Capital Escrow Fund, after giving effect to clause (B)(1), shall be released to the Sellers’ Representative (for the benefit of the Sellers pursuant to the Distribution Waterfall); and

(C) the Initial Purchase Price on the Closing Date is equal to the Adjusted Purchase Price, then an amount equal to the Working Capital Escrow Amount plus the Accrued Interest shall be released from the Working Capital Escrow Fund to the Sellers’ Representative (for the benefit of the Sellers pursuant to the Distribution Waterfall).

(ii) All payments pursuant to this Section 2.5(d) shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in advance by the Sellers’ Representative or Purchaser, as applicable, and all such payments and releases from the Working Capital Escrow Fund, as applicable, shall be made on or prior to the 5^th Business Day following: (A) the 30 day period following Purchaser’s delivery of the calculation of the Actual Working Capital and Actual Cash pursuant to Section 2.5(b) if the Sellers’ Representative does not timely dispute either of such amounts pursuant to Section 2.5(c)(i); (B) the date of the Sellers’ Representative’s and Purchaser’s mutual determination of Final Working Capital and Final Cash in the event the Sellers’ Representative timely disputes either of such amounts pursuant to Section 2.5(c)(i) and the Sellers’ Representative’s and Purchaser’s differences are resolved without the engagement of an Accounting Arbitrator pursuant to Section 2.5(c)(ii); and (C) the date of the Accounting Arbitrator’s determination of Final Working Capital and/or Final Cash pursuant to Section 2.5(c)(iii) in the event the Sellers’ Representative timely disputes either of such amounts pursuant to Section 2.5(c)(i) and the Sellers’ Representative and Purchaser are unable to resolve their differences pursuant to Section 2.5(c)(ii).



	19

2.6 Purchase Price Allocation. Within 60 days of the determination of the Adjusted Purchase Price pursuant to Section 2.5(d), Purchaser shall provide Sellers’ Representative with an allocation of the Adjusted Purchase Price paid in respect of Units of the Company and the relevant portion of the liabilities of the Company Group (plus other relevant items) to the assets of the Company Group for all Tax purposes in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Code (the “Purchase Price Allocation”). If within 10 days after the delivery of the Purchase Price Allocation, Sellers’ Representative notifies Purchaser in writing that Sellers’ Representative objects to the allocation set forth in the Purchase Price Allocation, Purchaser, Sellers and Sellers’ Representative shall use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve such dispute within 20 days. In the event that Purchaser and Sellers’ Representative are unable to resolve such dispute within 20 days, Purchaser and Sellers’ Representative shall engage an Accounting Arbitrator to resolve such dispute. Upon resolution of the disputed items, the allocation reflected on the Purchase Price Allocation shall be adjusted to reflect such resolution. The costs, fees and expenses of the Accounting Arbitrator shall be borne equally by Purchaser and Sellers’ Representative (on behalf of the Sellers). Purchaser, the Company Group, and Sellers shall file all Tax Returns (including amended Tax returns and claims for Tax refunds) and information reports in a manner consistent with the Purchase Price Allocation.

The Company is qualified to do business as a foreign entity and is in good standing in each jurisdiction listed on the attached “Entity Organization Schedule,” which jurisdictions constitute all of the jurisdictions in which the ownership of properties or the proper conduct of the Business requires the Company to be so qualified, except to the extent the failure to have such power and authority would not have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. The Company has all requisite power and authority to own and operate its material assets and carry on the Business as now conducted. The Company has all requisite limited liability company power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and the other agreements contemplated hereby and to perform its obligations hereunder and thereunder.

5.2 Authorization. The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this Agreement, the other agreements contemplated hereby and each of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby have been duly and validly authorized by the Company and no other act or proceeding on the part of the Company, the Company’s board of managers or the Sellers is necessary to authorize the execution, delivery or performance by the Company of this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated hereby or the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Company and, assuming the due execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other agreements contemplated hereby by the other parties hereto and thereto, this Agreement constitutes, and the other agreements contemplated hereby upon execution and delivery by the Company will each constitute, a valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as the enforceability hereof or thereof may be limited by any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditor’s rights generally and as limited by the availability of specific performance and other equitable remedies or applicable equitable principles (whether



	30

On or prior to the date of this Agreement, the Company’s board of managers has unanimously determined that this Agreement and the transactions provided for herein are fair to and in the best interest of the Company and the Sellers, and adopted written resolutions by a unanimous vote (a) approving this Agreement and (b) declaring this Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein advisable and directing that this Agreement be submitted to the Sellers for their adoption, which resolutions have not been subsequently withdrawn or modified in a manner adverse to Purchaser.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that sufficient funds are available in the Indemnity Escrow Fund to cover the cost of any Losses suffered or incurred by the Purchaser Indemnitees that are indemnifiable pursuant to this Article 9, the Seller Indemnitors shall be jointly and severally liable for such Losses without regard to their Applicable Percentage.

(ii) Subject to the other limitations in this Article 9, from and after the Closing, each of the Sellers, solely with respect to itself and not as to any other Seller, agrees to indemnify the Purchaser Indemnitees and hold each Purchaser Indemnitee harmless against any Loss which such Purchaser Indemnitee suffers, solely as a result of:

(A) the breach by such Seller of any representation or warranty made by such Seller contained in Article 6 hereof;

(B) the breach by such Seller of any covenant or agreement of such Seller contained in this Agreement;

(D) in the case of the Vista Seller, Covered Taxes of Vista Blocker.

(B) None of the Seller Indemnitors shall be liable to indemnify the Purchaser Indemnitees pursuant to Section 9.1(a)(i)(A) (other than for the breach of a Fundamental Representation or a Tax Representation) unless and until such Purchaser Indemnitee has collectively suffered Losses as a result of breaches in excess of eight hundred thousand Dollars ($800,000) in the aggregate (the “Indemnification Basket”) (at which time the Seller Indemnitors shall only be obligated to indemnify the Purchaser Indemnitees for Losses to the extent exceeding the Indemnification Basket); provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Seller Indemnitors shall not be liable to indemnify the Purchaser Indemnitees pursuant to Section 9.1(a)(i)(A), unless and until such Purchaser Indemnitee has suffered aggregate Losses arising out of a claim in excess of $10,000 (provided that any claim not exceeding such amount shall not be aggregated to count towards the Indemnification Basket).

(C) Any indemnification under Section 9.1(a)(i)(A) and 9.1(a)(ii)(A) for Losses in respect of Taxes shall be limited to such Losses incurred with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period; provided that the foregoing limitation shall not apply with respect to Losses in respect of Taxes as a result of a breach of a representation contained in Section 5.17(d), (e) or (f).

(b) [Intentionally Omitted]

(i) Any indemnified party making a claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 9.1(a) (an “Indemnified Party”) must give the Sellers’ Representative written notice of such claim (which such written notice shall state in reasonable detail the nature and amount of such claim and the provisions of this Agreement upon which such claim for indemnification is made) promptly after the Indemnified Party receives any written notice of any action, lawsuit, proceeding, investigation or other claim (a “Proceeding”) against or involving the Indemnified Party by a third party or otherwise discovers the liability, obligation or facts giving rise to such claim for indemnification; provided that a failure to notify or delay in notifying the Sellers’ Representative will not relieve the indemnifying party (the “Indemnifying Party”) of its obligations pursuant to Section 9.1(a), except to the



	57

extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced as a result thereof. The Indemnified Party shall keep the Indemnifying Party apprised of any significant developments relating to any Proceeding or other claims for indemnification.

(ii) With respect to the defense of any Proceeding by a third party against or involving an Indemnified Party for which indemnification is provided in which the third party seeks only the recovery of a sum of money that, together with the other pending claims, is less than the then-remaining amount of the Indemnity Escrow Fund, at its option the Indemnifying Party may assume the defense of such Proceeding provided, that, prior to assuming control of such defense, the Indemnifying Party must acknowledge in writing that the Indemnifying Party would have an indemnification obligation for any Losses resulting from such claim as provided under this Article 9. If the Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense of such Proceeding, (A) the Indemnifying Party shall not, in the defense of such Proceeding, consent to entry of any judgment (other than a judgment of dismissal against the third party claimant on the merits without costs) except with the written consent of the Indemnified Party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and (B) the Indemnified Party, with counsel of its choice shall be able to participate in the defense of any such Proceeding. The fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be borne by the Indemnified Party; provided that the Indemnifying Party shall pay the fees and expenses of such separate counsel if representation of both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party by the same counsel would create an actual conflict of interest. In all cases, the Indemnified Party shall provide its reasonable cooperation with the Indemnifying Party in the defense of claims or litigation, including by making employees, information, and documentation reasonably available.

(iii) If the Indemnifying Party shall not assume the defense of a Proceeding pursuant to Section 9.1(c)(i), the Indemnified Party may defend against such Proceeding in such manner as it reasonably deems appropriate; provided, that (x) the Indemnified Party shall, to the extent permitted by law, permit the Indemnifying Party to review any material communication given to it by, and consult with the Indemnifying Party in advance of any meeting or conference with, the claimant in such Proceeding or any Governmental Authority in connection with such Proceeding and (y) if the Indemnified Party settles such Proceeding without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Person (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), then the amount of such settlement shall not be dispositive of Losses payable pursuant to this Article 9.

(iv) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of Section 9.8(c)(ii), and not this Section 9.1(c), shall control with respect to all Proceedings with respect to Taxes.

(d) Net Recovery; Mitigation. The amount of any Loss shall be net of any amounts recovered by the Indemnified Party or its Affiliates under insurance policies, indemnities, reimbursement arrangements, or contracts (including with respect to any breaches thereof) with respect to such Loss, offset by the net present value of any resulting premium increases. The amount of any Loss claimed by any Indemnified Party hereunder shall be reduced to the extent of any net Tax savings or benefits actually realized by any Indemnified Party or its Affiliates in the taxable year that includes or precedes the taxable period in which payment is due in respect of such Loss, pursuant to this Article 9, that is attributable to any deduction, loss, credit or other Tax benefit, resulting from or arising out of such Loss. An Indemnified Party shall be deemed to have “actually



	58

realized” a net Tax saving or benefit to the extent that, and at such time as, the amount of Taxes paid by such Indemnified Party is reduced below the amount of Taxes that such Person would have been required to pay but for the Tax benefit. In computing the amount of any such net Tax saving benefit, an Indemnified Party shall be deemed to recognize all other items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit before recognizing any items arising from the incurrence or payment in respect of the Loss for which indemnification is provided under this Section 9.1. Any Loss under this Agreement shall be determined without duplication of recovery by reason of the state of facts giving rise to such Loss constituting a breach of more than one representation, warranty, covenant or agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Seller Indemnitors shall have no liability under this Agreement with respect to any matter to the extent the expense, loss or liability comprising the Loss (or a part thereof) with respect to such matter (i) has been taken into account in the determination of Final Working Capital or Final Cash or (ii) arises out of changes after the Closing Date in applicable laws, rules or regulations or interpretations applicable thereto. The Indemnified Party shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, take all commercially reasonable steps to mitigate any Loss upon becoming aware of any claim as to which indemnification may be sought pursuant to this Section 9.1; provided, that nothing set forth in this Section 9.1(d) shall require any Indemnified Party to pursue payments from any applicable insurance policies (after making the initial claim under such policies) or recovery from third parties.

(e) Recoupment under the Escrow Agreement; Release of the Indemnity Escrow Fund. From and after the Closing (but subject to the provisions of this Article 9, including, without limitation, the provisions of Section 9.1(a)(iv)), any indemnification to which a Purchaser Indemnitee is entitled under Section 9.1(a)(i)(A) as a result of any Loss (other than any Loss in respect of a breach of a Fundamental Representation or a Tax Representation after the date that is eighteen (18) months following the Closing Date (the “General Survival Date”)) shall be satisfied solely and exclusively by recouping all of such Loss from the Indemnity Escrow Fund by such Purchaser Indemnitee in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement. On the General Survival Date, Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative shall direct the Escrow Agent to release to the Sellers’ Representative (on behalf of the Sellers) the then-remaining amount of the Indemnity Escrow Fund less the aggregate amount of all Losses specified in any then-unresolved good faith claims for indemnification.

(f) Payments. Any payment pursuant to a claim for indemnification shall be made not later than 30 days after receipt by the Indemnifying Party of written notice from the Indemnified Party stating the amount of the claim, unless the claim is subject to defense as provided in Section 9.1(c) or is a dispute, claim or controversy which is the subject of an unresolved arbitration proceeding pursuant to Section 9.9, in which case payment shall be made not later than 30 days after the amount of the claim is finally determined or any such dispute is resolved.

(g) Exclusive Remedy. Each of the Parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that from and after the Closing, the indemnification provisions in this Section 9.1 shall be the exclusive remedy of the Purchaser Indemnitees with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including, without limitation, with respect to any environmental, health or safety matters and matters arising under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended, or any other Environmental Laws) (except for claims of willful fraud and disputes under Section 2.5, which disputes under Section 2.5 will be resolved in accordance with the dispute resolution mechanism set forth in Section 2.5). After the Closing Date, no party may seek the rescission of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.



	59

(h) Subrogation. After any indemnification payment is made pursuant to this Article 9, the Indemnifying Party shall, to the extent of such payment, be subrogated to all rights (if any) of the Indemnified Party against any third party in connection with the Losses to which such payment relates. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, any Indemnified Party receiving an indemnification payment pursuant to the preceding sentence shall execute, upon the written request of the Indemnifying Party, any instrument reasonably necessary to evidence such subrogation rights.

9.2 Mutual Assistance. Each of the parties hereto agrees that they will mutually cooperate in the expeditious filing of all notices, reports and other filings with any Governmental Authority required to be submitted jointly by any of the parties hereto in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the other agreements contemplated hereby and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. Subsequent to the Closing, each of the parties hereto, at their own cost, will assist each other (including by the retention of records and the provision of access to relevant records) in the preparation of their respective Tax Returns and the filing and execution of Tax elections, if required, as well as in the defense of any audits or litigation that may ensue as a result of the filing thereof, to the extent that such assistance is reasonably requested.

Purchaser agrees on behalf of itself and its Affiliates that (i) the VSOPs and the other Vista Confidential Information are valuable, confidential and proprietary information and constitute trade secrets of Vista and the VSOPs and the other Confidential

The provisions of this Section 9.7 are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each such D&O Beneficiary and are in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to contribution that any such person may have by contract or otherwise.

In the case of any taxable period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date (a “Straddle Period”), the amount of any Taxes based on or measured by income or receipts of the Vista Blocker, the Bregal Blocker or the Company Group that are allocable to a Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be determined based on an interim closing of the books as of the Closing Date (it being understood, for avoidance of doubt, that (i) any item of income, gain, loss or deduction attributable to amounts accrued by the Company and/or its Subsidiaries on or before the Closing Date and (ii) any item of income, gain, loss or deduction resulting directly from or directly attributable to the transactions contemplated hereunder and available under applicable law, shall in each case be deemed to occur in the Pre-Closing Tax Period). For the foregoing purpose, (x) the taxable period of the Company and any partnership or other pass-through entity in which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries holds a beneficial interest will be deemed to terminate at such time and (y) no election for ratable allocation will be made under Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-76(b)(2)(ii) or Section 706 of the Code (or any similar provision of state, local, or foreign Tax law). The amount of other Taxes of the Vista Blocker, the Bregal Blocker or the Company Group for a Straddle Period which relate to the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire taxable period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the Straddle Period ending on and including the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the Straddle Period.

(e) Taxes payable in respect of a Straddle Period (“Straddle Period Taxes”) and Transfer Taxes shall be timely paid, and all applicable filings, reports and returns shall be filed, as provided hereunder and by applicable law. In the event that a party pays any Straddle Period Tax or Transfer Tax that is to be borne by another party (the “non-paying party”) pursuant to this Agreement, the paying party shall be entitled to reimbursement from the non-paying party for the amount of such Straddle Period Taxes or Transfer Taxes that are to be borne by such non-paying party in accordance with this Agreement. In the event that any Straddle Period Taxes are paid by Bregal Blocker, to the extent such Straddle Period Taxes are allocated to the Pre-Closing Tax Period pursuant to Section 9.8(d), Bregal Seller shall be the non-paying party and reimbursement for



	65

amounts paid with respect to such Taxes shall be satisfied first from the Indemnity Escrow Fund, and second directly from Bregal Seller; and in the event that any Straddle Period Taxes are paid by Vista Blocker, to the extent such Straddle Period Taxes are allocated to the Pre-Closing Tax Period pursuant to Section 9.8(d), Vista Seller shall be the non-paying party and reimbursement for amounts paid with respect to such Taxes shall be satisfied first from the Indemnity Escrow Fund, and second directly from Vista Seller. In the event that any Straddle Period Taxes or Transfer Taxes are paid by the Company Group, to the extent such Straddle Period Taxes are allocated to the Pre-Closing Tax Period pursuant to Section 9.8(d) or such Transfer Taxes are allocated to the Sellers pursuant to Section 9.6, the Sellers’ Representative shall be the non-paying party and reimbursement for amounts paid with respect to such Taxes shall be satisfied from the Indemnity Escrow Fund. Upon payment of any such Straddle Period Taxes or Transfer Taxes to the applicable Taxing Authority, the paying party shall present a statement to the non-paying party setting forth the amount of reimbursement to which the paying party is entitled, together with such supporting evidence as is reasonably necessary to calculate the amount to be reimbursed. The non-paying party shall make such reimbursement promptly but in no event later than 30 days after the presentation of such statement. Any payment not made within such time shall bear interest at the rate of 8.00% for each day until paid. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no party shall be entitled to indemnification under Section 9.1 with respect to Straddle Period Taxes or Transfer Taxes that have been reimbursed pursuant to this Section 9.8(e).

(f) Tax Refunds. Any refunds of Taxes with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period that are received by Purchaser, Bregal Blocker, Vista Blocker or the Company Group after the Closing Date, (any such refund, a “Pre-Closing Tax Refund”), shall be for the account of the Sellers, and Purchaser shall pay over to Sellers’ Representative for the benefit of the Sellers any such Pre-Closing Tax Refund within fifteen (15) days after receipt thereof; provided, that (i) to the extent any such Pre-Closing Tax Refunds are received with respect to Bregal Blocker, such Pre-Closing Tax Refunds shall be for the account of Bregal Seller; and (ii) to the extent any such Pre-Closing Tax Refunds are received with respect to Vista Blocker, then such Pre-Closing Tax Refunds shall be for the account of Vista Seller. Purchaser shall reasonably cooperate with Sellers’ Representative in obtaining such refunds, including through the filing of amended Tax Returns or refund claims, it being understood that (A) Purchaser shall not, and shall cause each of Bregal Blocker, Vista Blocker and the Company Group not to waive any carryback of net operating loss or other Tax attribute of any member of Bregal Blocker, Vista Blocker or the Company Group generated or otherwise attributable to a Pre-Closing Tax Period if such waiver would reduce the amount due to the Sellers pursuant to this Section 9.8(f), (B) Purchaser, Bregal Blocker, Vista Blocker and the Company Group will carryback any net operating losses for any Pre-Closing Tax Period to prior taxable periods as allowable by applicable law and shall claim Tax refunds as a result of such carryback (including through the filing of amended Tax Returns), (C) any such Pre-Closing Tax Refunds will be claimed in cash rather than as a credit against future Tax liabilities, (D) Purchaser, Bregal Blocker, Vista Blocker and the Company Group shall reasonably cooperate with Sellers in timely preparing and filing Tax Returns (including amendments of prior Tax Returns and claims for refunds, including claims for refunds on IRS Forms 1139 and/or 4466) for any Pre-Closing Tax Period and for any Straddle Period, and (E) apportionment of any Pre-Closing Tax Refund to the portion of a Straddle Period ending on and including the Closing Date shall be determined in accordance with Section 9.8(d).



	66

(h) Intermediary Transaction Tax Shelter. The Purchaser shall not take any action or cause any action to be taken with respect to the Company subsequent to the Closing that would cause the transactions contemplated hereby to constitute part of a transaction that is the same as, or substantially similar to, the “Intermediary Transaction Tax Shelter” described in Internal Revenue Service Notice 2001-16, 2001-1 C.B. 730, and Internal Revenue Service Notice 2008-20 I.R.B. 2008-6 (January 17, 2008), and Internal Revenue Service Notice 2008-111 I.R.B. 1299 (December 1, 2008).

(a) Except for any dispute, claim or controversy pursuant to Section 2.5, Section 2.6 or Section 4.11, each of the parties hereto agrees that it will attempt to settle any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of this Agreement through good faith negotiations in the spirit of mutual cooperation between senior business executives with authority to resolve the controversy.

(b) Except for any dispute, claim or controversy pursuant to Section 2.5, Section 2.6 or Section 4.11, any dispute, claim or controversy that cannot be resolved by the parties hereto through good faith negotiations within 30 days of notification to the counter-party of the commencement of the dispute resolution procedures of this Section 9.9 will then, upon the written request of any party hereto, be resolved by binding arbitration conducted in accordance with the then effective Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association by a panel of three arbitrators mutually agreeable to the parties. If the parties cannot mutually agree upon the selection, the arbitrators shall be selected in accordance with the rules of the then effective Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association. To the extent not governed by such rules, such arbitrator shall be directed by the parties to set a schedule for determination of such dispute, claim or controversy that is reasonable under the circumstances. Such arbitrator shall be directed by the parties to determine the dispute in accordance with this Agreement and the substantive rules of law (but not the rules of procedure or evidence) that would be applied by a federal court required to apply the internal law (and not the law of conflicts) of the State of New York. The arbitration will be conducted in the English language in New York, New York. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered by any court having jurisdiction.

(c) Nothing contained in this Section 9.9 shall prevent any party hereto from resorting to judicial process if solely injunctive or equitable relief from a court is necessary to prevent injury to such party or its Affiliates. The use of arbitration procedures will not be construed under the doctrine of laches, waiver or estoppel to affect adversely the rights of any party hereto to assert any claim or defense. The prevailing party in the final, non-appealable determination of any dispute, claim or controversy brought in arbitration, court or other judicial process in accordance with this Agreement shall be reimbursed fully and promptly by the non-prevailing party for all attorneys’ fees, court costs and other reasonable costs and expenses incurred by such prevailing party in connection with the resolution of such dispute, claim or controversy.

	68

thing whatsoever, in each case arising from, relating to, or resulting from such Seller’s ownership of Equity Interests. Each Seller, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, expressly waives all rights afforded by any statute which limits the effect of a release with respect to unknown claims.

At the Closing, the Purchaser shall deliver to the Sellers’ Representative an amount equal to $1,000,000 (the “Sellers’ Representative Expense Fund”) to be held in trust to cover and reimburse the fees and expenses incurred by the Sellers’ Representative for its obligations in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein. Any balance of the Sellers’ Representative Expense Fund not incurred for such purposes shall be returned to the Sellers on a pro rata basis as soon as reasonably practicable after payment of the Sellers’ Representative the amount due to it from the Sellers’ Representative Expense Fund. A decision, act, consent or instruction of the Sellers’ Representative hereunder shall constitute a decision, act, consent or instruction of all Sellers and shall be final, binding and



	69

conclusive upon each of such Sellers, and all Indemnified Parties may rely upon any such decision, act, consent or instruction of the Sellers’ Representative as being the decision, act, consent or instruction of each and every Seller. All Indemnified Parties shall be relieved from any liability to any Person for any acts done by them in accordance with such decision, act, consent or instruction of the Sellers’ Representative.

9.12 Disclosure Schedules. Each disclosure schedule delivered pursuant to this Agreement (each a “Schedule”, and collectively, the “Schedules”) shall be in writing and shall qualify this Agreement. The Schedules are not intended to constitute, and shall not be construed as constituting, representations or warranties of the Company except to the extent expressly provided in this Agreement and shall not be deemed to expand in any way the scope or effect of any of such representations or warranties. Certain information set forth in the Schedules is included solely for information purposes and may not be required to be disclosed pursuant to this Agreement. The inclusion of an item in a Schedule as an exception to a representation or warranty shall not be deemed to constitute an acknowledgment that such information is required to be disclosed in connection with the representations or warranties of the Company nor shall such information constitute an admission by any party hereto, as applicable, that such item constitutes an item, event, circumstance or occurrence that is material to the Company Group or constitutes a Material Adverse Effect. Any fact or item that is disclosed in any Schedule in a way as to make its relevance or applicability to information called for by any other Schedule reasonably apparent shall be deemed to be disclosed in such other Schedule, notwithstanding the omission of a reference or cross-reference thereto. Disclosure of any allegations with respect to any alleged breach, violation or default under any contractual or other obligation, or any law, is not an admission that such breach, violation or default has occurred. Headings and subheadings have been inserted on certain Schedules for convenience of reference only and shall not be considered a part of or affect the construction or interpretation of such Schedules. Where the terms of a contract or other item have been summarized or described in the Schedules, such summary or description does not purport to be a complete statement of the material terms of such contract or other item, and, all such summaries and descriptions are qualified in their entirety by reference to the contract or item being summarized and/or described. The information provided in the Schedules is being provided solely for the purpose of making disclosures to Purchaser under this Agreement. In disclosing this information, the Company does not waive, and expressly reserves any rights under, any attorney-client privilege associated with such information or any protection afforded by the work-product doctrine with respect to any of the matters disclosed or discussed therein.

9.13 Retention of Books and Records. Purchaser shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to retain all books, ledgers, files, reports, plans, operating records and any other material documents pertaining to the Company and its Subsidiaries in existence at the Closing that are required to be retained under current retention policies for a period of seven years from the Closing Date, and to make the same available after the Closing for inspection and copying by the Sellers’ Representative or its representatives at the Sellers’ Representative’s expense, during regular business hours and upon reasonable request and upon reasonable advance notice.

9.14 Restricted Activities. During the Restricted Period, no Seller that is an individual (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include any Sellers that are entities) (each, a “Restricted Seller”) will, directly or indirectly, for any reason, for its own benefit or for the benefit of or together with any other Person:

(a) solicit or conspire with, or attempt to solicit or conspire with, any employee, manager, director or advisor of Purchaser or its Affiliates to terminate that Person’s engagement or relationship with Purchaser or its Affiliates;

(b) solicit or attempt to solicit, any of the Clients or Suppliers of Purchaser or its Affiliates (as defined below) with whom such Restricted Seller has had material contact during the one year prior to the Closing Date to terminate their business relationship with Purchaser or its Affiliates (as used herein, “Clients” and “Suppliers” shall be defined as any Person that has been an active client/customer or supplier of the Company Group or a targeted prospective client/customer or supplier of the Company Group or its Affiliates during the one year prior to the Closing Date);

(c) divert or attempt to divert any or all of such Customers’ or Suppliers’ business from Purchaser or its Affiliates in violation of any unfair competition laws or other applicable laws; or

(d) be engaged as an executive officer, limited liability entity manager or director or in any other managerial or sales capacity or as an owner, co-owner, or other investor of or in, or lender to, whether as an employee, independent contractor, consultant or advisor, or sales representative or distributor of any kind, in any Restricted Business anywhere in the Restricted Area, with the parties acknowledging that Purchaser and its Affiliates are actively engaged in such business throughout and beyond all parts of the Restricted Territory; provided, however, the foregoing prohibition on ownership shall not apply to ownership of investments in: (A) a Person that is a large organization whose business is highly diversified if the Restricted Business is not a primary part of its business; or (B) any Person that is listed on a recognised stock exchange so long as such Restricted Seller, together with such Restricted Seller’s Affiliates, collectively own less than 3% of the total outstanding equity interests of such Person

9.15 280G Shareholder Vote. Before the Closing Date, the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts (to the extent the requisite waivers described below are obtained) to seek the approval by such number of shareholders of the Company as is required by the terms of Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code as to whether any “disqualified individual” (as defined in Section 280G of the Code), who in the absence of such shareholder approval would receive payments (including any accelerated vesting, payments, benefits, options and/or stock provided pursuant to agreements, contracts or arrangements that might otherwise result from the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement that would constitute “excess parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, has a right to receive such payments, with such shareholder vote to be obtained in a manner that satisfies all applicable requirements of applicable state Law and of Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (the “280G Shareholder Vote”); provided, however, that to the extent that any contract, agreement, or plan is entered into by Purchaser, the Company Group or any of their Affiliates and a “disqualified individual” (as defined in Section 280G of the Code) in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement before the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall provide



	71

a copy of such contract, agreement or plan to the Company and the Stockholders’ Representative at least five (5) days before the Closing Date and shall cooperate with the Company in good faith in order to calculate or determine the value (for the purposes of Section 280G of the Code) of any payments or benefits granted or contemplated therein, which may be paid or granted in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement that could constitute a “parachute payment” under Section 280G of the Code. In connection therewith, the Company shall take commercially reasonable efforts to obtain and deliver to Purchaser, prior to the initiation of the 280G Shareholder Vote, a parachute payment waiver agreement (a “280G Waiver”) from each person who the Company reasonably believes is a “disqualified individual” (within the meaning of Section 280G(c) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder), as determined immediately prior to the 280G Shareholder Vote, and who might otherwise have, receive or have the right or entitlement to receive any payments or benefits from the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement that would be subject to treatment as parachute payments within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code. Drafts of all materials produced by the Company in connection with the 280G Shareholder Vote shall be provided to Purchaser reasonably in advance for Purchaser’s review and comment, which comment and any requested changes the Company shall consider in good faith and not unreasonably omit.

	73

10.5 No Strict Construction. The language used in this Agreement shall be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties hereto to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction will be applied against any Person. The words “hereof,” “herein,” “hereby,” “herewith” and words of similar import shall, unless otherwise stated, be construed to refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement, and article, section, paragraph and schedule references are to the articles, sections, paragraphs and schedules of this Agreement unless otherwise specified or unless the context otherwise requires.

The phrases “the date of this Agreement,” “the date hereof,” “of even date herewith” and terms of similar import shall be deemed to refer to the date set forth in the preamble to this Agreement. The word “including” or any variation thereof means “including, without limitation” and shall not be construed to limit any general statement that it follows to the specific or similar items or matters immediately following it. Unless the context of this Agreement otherwise requires, references to agreements and other documents shall be deemed to include all subsequent amendments and other modifications thereto; provided, that any such amendments omitted from any Schedule, to the extent material, shall not be deemed disclosed for purposes of the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 3.2 or Article 9.

10.8 Complete Agreement. This Agreement, including the Schedules, and the exhibits hereto, together with the other instruments referred to herein, including the Confidentiality Agreement constitute the entire agreement, and supersede all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof.

10.9 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, any one of which may be by facsimile, and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.



	74

10.10 Governing Law and Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the domestic laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York. Except as to matters subject to arbitration (other than enforcement of awards therefrom or enforcement of any party’s agreement to arbitrate) as described in Section 9.9, to the extent permitted by law, each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of any state court sitting in the State of New York or United States federal court sitting in New York, New York, over any suit, action or other proceeding brought by any party arising out of or relating to this Agreement, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably agrees that all claims with respect to any such suit, action or other proceeding shall be heard and determined in such courts. In the event of any litigation regarding or arising from this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the non-prevailing party its reasonable expenses, attorneys’ fees and costs incurred therein or in enforcement or collection of any judgment or award rendered therein.

10.11 Attorney-Client Privilege and Conflict Waiver. Kirkland & Ellis LLP has represented the Company, its Subsidiaries, certain of the Sellers and the Sellers’ Representative. All of the parties recognize the commonality of interest that exists and will continue to exist until Closing, and the parties agree that such commonality of interest should continue to be recognized after the Closing. Specifically, the parties agree Purchaser shall not, and shall not cause any member of the Company Group to, seek to have Kirkland & Ellis LLP disqualified from representing the Sellers’ Representative, the Sellers and their respective Affiliates, and each of the foregoing’s respective officers, directors, employees, shareholders, equityholders, agents and representatives (collectively, the “Seller Parties”) in connection with any dispute that may arise between the Sellers’ Representative, the Seller Parties or their respective Affiliates and the Purchaser or the Company in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and (b) in connection with any such dispute that may arise between the Sellers’ Representative, the Seller Parties or their respective Affiliates and the Purchaser or the Company, the Sellers’ Representative (and not the Purchaser or the Company) will have the right to decide whether or not to waive the attorney client privilege that may apply to any communications between the Company, any of its Subsidiaries and Kirkland & Ellis LLP that occurred before the Closing.

10.12 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE IT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY OF THE AGREEMENTS DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.

10.13 Specific Performance. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed by Purchaser, the Company, the Sellers or the Sellers’ Representative as applicable, in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached by Purchaser, the Company, the Sellers or the Sellers’ Representative, as applicable. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled



	75

to an injunction or injunctions, without any requirement to post or provide any bond or other security in connection therewith, to prevent breaches of this Agreement by any of Purchaser, the Company, the Sellers or the Sellers’ Representative, as applicable, and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof against Purchaser, the Company, the Sellers or the Sellers’ Representative, as applicable, in any court having jurisdiction, this being in addition to any other remedy to which the parties hereto are entitled at law or in equity.
