Item 8.01 Other Events.

As previously announced, on July 24, 2026, Expand

Energy Corporation (the "Company") entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") with Twin

Eagle N.A., LLC ("Twin Eagle"), Eikon AW Holdings, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company ("Merger Sub"), and

TERM Holdings, LLC, solely in its capacity as representative of the members of Twin Eagle (the "Seller Representative"). Twin

Eagle and its subsidiaries (together, the "Acquired Entities") operate a leading independent asset-backed natural gas marketing

and optimization business.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, and upon the

terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, Merger Sub will merge with and into Twin Eagle (the "Merger"), with Twin

Eagle surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. At the effective time of the Merger, each issued and outstanding

equity interest in Twin Eagle will be cancelled and extinguished and automatically converted into the right to receive the applicable

portion of the aggregate consideration payable under the Merger Agreement.

The aggregate consideration payable by the Company

for Twin Eagle consists of a base purchase price of $1.25 billion, subject to post-closing adjustment for working capital, cash, indebtedness

and unpaid transaction expenses. The Company paid a cash deposit of $62.5 million in connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement.

The consummation of the Merger is subject to customary

closing conditions, including, among others: (i) the accuracy of the parties’ representations and warranties, (ii) expiration or

termination of the applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and (iii) receipt

of required approvals under Canada's Competition Act and Federal Energy Regulatory Commission approval under Section 203(a) of the Federal

Power Act.

The holders of a majority of the outstanding equity

interests of Twin Eagle have provided an irrevocable written consent approving the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the

Merger Agreement.

The Merger Agreement contains customary representations

and warranties made by Twin Eagle with respect to the Acquired Entities, and representations and warranties made by the Company and Merger

Sub. The Merger Agreement also contains customary covenants, including, among others, covenants by Twin Eagle to (i) operate the business

of the Acquired Entities in the ordinary course of business in all material respects during the period between the execution of the Merger

Agreement and the closing of the Merger, (ii) subject to specified exceptions, refrain from taking certain actions without the prior written

consent of the Company, and (iii) cooperate with the Company to obtain required regulatory approvals.

The Merger Agreement contains customary termination

provisions and may be terminated prior to the closing of the Merger under certain circumstances, including by either Twin Eagle or the

Company if the Merger has not been consummated by January 24, 2027, subject to extension under certain conditions.

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, a copy of which

is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein. The Merger Agreement has been filed

to provide investors and security holders with information regarding its terms. It is not intended to provide any other factual information

about the Company, Twin Eagle or their respective subsidiaries or affiliates. The Merger Agreement contains representations and warranties

of each of the parties that were made solely for the benefit of the other parties. The assertions embodied in those representations and

warranties are qualified by information contained in confidential disclosure schedules that the parties exchanged in connection with the

signing of the Merger Agreement. Accordingly, investors and security holders should not rely on such representations and warranties as

characterizations of the actual state of facts or circumstances, since they were only made as of the date of the Merger Agreement and

are modified in important part by the underlying disclosure schedules. In addition, certain representations and warranties may be subject

to a contractual standard of materiality different from that generally applicable to investors, and may be used for the purpose of allocating

risk between the respective parties.

(a)          Unless

the context otherwise requires, references in this Agreement to (i) Articles, Sections, Exhibits and Schedules shall be deemed references

to Articles and Sections of, and Exhibits and Schedules to, this Agreement, (ii) “paragraphs” or “clauses”

shall be deemed references to separate paragraphs or clauses of the Section or subsection in which the reference occurs, (iii) any

Contract (including this Agreement) or Law shall be deemed references to such Contract or Law as amended, supplemented or modified from

time to time in accordance with its terms and the terms hereof, as applicable, and in effect at any given time (and, in the case of any

Law, to any successor provisions), (iv) any Person shall be deemed references to such Person’s successors and permitted assigns,

and in the case of any Governmental Entity, to any Person(s) succeeding to its functions and capacities and (v) any federal,

state, local, or foreign statute or Law shall be deemed references to all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder as in effect

at the applicable time.

(b)          If

a term is defined as one part of speech (such as a noun), it shall have a corresponding meaning when used as another part of speech (such

as a verb). Terms defined in the singular have the corresponding meanings in the plural, and vice versa. Unless the context of this Agreement

clearly requires otherwise, words importing the masculine gender shall include the feminine and neutral genders and vice versa. The term

“includes” or “including” shall mean “including, without limitation.” The words “hereof,”

“hereto,” “hereby,” “herein,” “hereunder” and words of similar import, when used in this

Agreement, shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular Section or Article in which such words appear.

The word “or” shall not be exclusive. The word “extent” in the phrase “to the extent” means the degree

to which a subject or thing extends, if applicable, and does not mean simply “if.” The words “ordinary course of business”

mean, with respect to each of the Acquired Entities, acting or refraining from acting in a manner consistent with how Acquired Entity,

as applicable, has acted or refrained from acting in the ordinary course of business, taking into account the past practices of such

entity. The phrases “delivered” or “made available,” when used in this Agreement, means that the information

referred to has been physically or electronically delivered to the relevant parties; provided, that the phrase “made

available” to the Buyer shall mean that such documents or other information or material has been (i) posted to, and is accessible

by, the Buyer and its representatives who have been granted access to such material through the on line “virtual data room”

established by Holdings and/or its representatives and hosted by Lazard, Inc. (the “Data Room”), or (ii) delivered

or provided (either by electronic or physical delivery) to Buyer and its representatives, in each case, prior to the execution and delivery

of this Agreement.

this Agreement refers to a number of days, such number shall refer to calendar days unless Business Days are specified. Whenever any

action must be taken hereunder on or by a day that is not a Business Day, then such action may be validly taken on or by the next day

that is a Business Day.

(d)          The

Parties acknowledge that each Party and its attorney has reviewed this Agreement and that any rule of construction to the effect

that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting Party, or any similar rule operating against the drafter of an agreement,

shall not be applicable to the construction or interpretation of this Agreement.

(e)          The

captions in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not be considered a part of or affect the construction or interpretation

of any provision of this Agreement.

(f)          All

accounting terms used herein and not expressly defined herein shall have the meanings given to them under the Accounting Principles.

(a)          The

Merger. At the Merger Effective Time, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement and in accordance

with the DLLCA, Merger Sub shall merge with and into Holdings, whereupon the separate existence of Merger Sub shall cease and Holdings

shall continue as the surviving entity of the Merger (the “Surviving Company”). At the Closing, Holdings and Merger

Sub shall cause the Certificate of Merger to be executed, acknowledged and filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware

and shall make all other filings or recordings required by the DLLCA in connection with the Merger. The Merger shall become effective

at the time the Certificate of Merger is duly filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware or at such later time as Buyer

and Holdings shall agree and specify in the Certificate of Merger (the “Merger Effective Time”). From and after the

Merger Effective Time, the Surviving Company shall succeed to all of the assets, rights, privileges, powers and franchises, and shall

be subject to all of the debts, liabilities, restrictions, disabilities and duties, of Holdings and Merger Sub, all as provided under

the DLLCA.

(b)          Conversion

of Equity Interests. At the Merger Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any Party or any

holder of any Equity Interests:

(i)          each

Holdings Interest issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time shall be cancelled and extinguished and automatically

converted into the right to receive the portion of the Purchase Price payable in respect thereof in accordance with Section 2.2

and Section 2.4, and from and after the Merger Effective Time each Seller shall cease to be a member of the Surviving Company

and cease to have any rights with respect to such Holdings Interests, except the right to receive such Seller’s respective portion

of the Purchase Price;

(ii)          each

Equity Interest of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time shall automatically be converted

into one Equity Interest of the Surviving Company, which shall thereafter constitute all of the issued and outstanding Equity Interests

of the Surviving Company; and

(iii)          at

the Merger Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any further action on the part of any Party or the holders of any Equity

Interests of any Party, the certificate of formation of the Surviving Company will continue to be the certificate of formation of the

Surviving Company until amended in accordance with the DLLCA and the limited liability company agreement of the Surviving Company. At

the Merger Effective Time, the limited liability company agreement of the Surviving Company will be the limited liability company agreement

of Merger Sub as in effect immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time.

and Officers. Unless otherwise determined by Buyer prior to the Merger Effective Time, each manager and officer of Merger Sub immediately

prior to the Merger Effective Time shall become a manager or an officer, as the case may be, of the Surviving Company immediately after

the Merger Effective Time, until the earlier of his or her incapacity, death, resignation or removal or until his or her successor is

duly qualified, as applicable.

Section 2.2          Purchase

Price. The aggregate consideration (to be delivered in the manner described in Section 2.6(c)(iii)) for the Holdings

Interests shall be an aggregate amount equal to the Purchase Price. The Closing Payment Amount shall be subject to adjustment after the

Closing pursuant to Section 2.4 (such Closing Payment Amount, together with the Deposit and the Purchase Price Adjustment

Escrow Amount, as adjusted in accordance with Section 2.4, shall be the “Purchase Price”).

Section 2.3          Deposit.

Within one (1) Business Day after the Effective Date, Buyer shall deliver to the Escrow Agent, by wire transfer of immediately available

funds into the Deposit Escrow Account a cash deposit equal to $62,500,000 (the “Deposit”), to assure Buyer’s

performance of its obligations hereunder and for certain other purposes set forth herein, and the Deposit shall be held by the Escrow

Agent in escrow pursuant to that certain escrow agreement, dated as of the Effective Date, by and among Buyer, Seller Representative

and the Escrow Agent, substantially in the form attached as Exhibit B (the “Deposit Escrow Agreement”).

Subject to Section 6.2, the Deposit shall be held by the Escrow Agent, and in the event there is a Closing, disbursed in

accordance with Section 2.8. If this Agreement is terminated prior to the Closing in accordance with Article VI,

then the distribution of the Deposit shall be governed by the terms of Section 6.2 and the Deposit Escrow Agreement.

Section 2.4          Post-Closing

Adjustment.

(a)          Estimated

Adjustment Certificate. At least five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Holdings shall prepare and deliver to Buyer

the Estimated Adjustment Statement. The Estimated Adjustment Statement shall separately itemize each component of the Adjustment Amount,

including (i) Adjusted Working Capital, (ii) the Closing Cash Amount, (iii) the Closing Indebtedness Amount, and (iv) the

Outstanding Transaction Expenses, in each case with reasonable supporting calculations. Holdings shall update the Estimated Adjustment

Statement no later than two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date to reflect any material changes in the components thereof.

Holdings shall consider in good faith any revisions provided by Buyer; provided, that if Holdings in good faith does not agree

with any such proposed revisions, then Holdings shall have no obligation to make such revision.

(b)          Closing

Adjustment Certificate. As promptly as practicable after the Closing, but in no event later than sixty (60) days after the Closing

Date (the “Seller Delivery Period”), Seller Representative shall prepare and deliver to Buyer the Closing Adjustment

Certificate; provided, that, if Seller does not deliver the Closing Adjustment Certificate within the Seller Delivery Period,

then, within sixty (60) days after the expiration of the Seller Delivery Period (the “Buyer Delivery Period”), Buyer

may deliver a Closing Adjustment Certificate to Seller Representative; provided, further, that if neither Buyer nor Seller

Representative delivers the Closing Adjustment Certificate to the other Party within the applicable period, then the Estimated Adjustment

Statement shall be deemed to be the Closing Adjustment Certificate and Seller Representative shall have the rights set forth in this

Section 2.4 with respect thereto. Buyer shall (i) permit Seller Representative and its representatives to have reasonable

access to the books, records and other documents (including work papers, schedules, financial statements, memoranda, etc.) as may

be reasonably requested by Seller Representative in order to enable Seller Representative to prepare the Closing Adjustment Certificate

during the Seller Delivery Period and provide Seller Representative with copies thereof (as reasonably requested by Seller Representative)

and (ii) provide Seller Representative and its representatives reasonable access to Buyer’s and each Acquired Entity’s

employees and advisors.

of Disagreement. The Closing Adjustment Certificate shall become final and binding upon the Parties on the earlier of, as applicable,

the date that is sixty (60) days after (i) receipt of the Closing Adjustment Certificate by Buyer or Seller Representative, as applicable,

pursuant to Section 2.4(b) and (ii) the expiration of both the Seller Delivery Period and Buyer Delivery Period

in the event that neither Seller Representative nor Buyer delivers a Closing Adjustment Certificate within such applicable time period

(the “Final Settlement Date”), in each case, unless Buyer or Seller Representative, as applicable, and in such context,

the “Disputing Party” gives written notice of its disagreement (“Notice of Disagreement”) to the

Party that prepared and delivered the Closing Adjustment Certificate (the “Preparing Party”) prior to such date. Any

Notice of Disagreement shall specify in reasonable detail the dollar amount, nature and basis of any such disagreement. If a Notice of

Disagreement is received by the Preparing Party, then the Closing Adjustment Certificate (as revised in accordance with Section 2.4(d),

if applicable) shall become final and binding on the Parties on, and the Final Settlement Date shall be, the earlier of (i) the

date upon which Seller Representative and Buyer agree in writing with respect to all matters specified in the Closing Adjustment Certificate

and (ii) the date upon which the Final Adjustment Certificate is issued by the Independent Accounting Firm.

(d)          Final

Adjustment Certificate. During the first twenty (20) days after the date upon which the Preparing Party receives a Notice of Disagreement,

the Parties shall attempt to resolve in writing any differences that they may have with respect to all matters specified in the Notice

of Disagreement. If at the end of such twenty (20)-day period (or earlier by mutual agreement to arbitrate) the Parties have not reached

agreement with respect to all matters specified in the Notice of Disagreement, the matters that remain in dispute may as promptly as

reasonably possible thereafter be submitted to the Independent Accounting Firm by either the Preparing Party or the Disputing Party for

review and resolution; provided, however, that any materials so provided to the Independent Accounting Firm shall also

simultaneously be made available to the other Party. The hearing date shall be scheduled by the Independent Accounting Firm as soon as

reasonably practicable, and shall be conducted on a confidential basis. Seller Representative and Buyer shall, not later than seven (7) days

prior to the hearing date set by the Independent Accounting Firm, submit a statement (to include their respective calculations with regard

to amounts in dispute on the Closing Adjustment Certificate) for settlement of any amounts set forth in the Notice of Disagreement that

remain in dispute. The Parties shall instruct the Independent Accounting Firm to render a decision (which decision shall include a written

statement of findings and conclusions, including a written explanation of its reasoning with respect to such findings and conclusions)

resolving the matters in dispute in accordance with this Section 2.4(d), and the Final Adjustment Certificate reflecting

such decision, within three (3) Business Days after the conclusion of the hearing, unless the Parties reach agreement prior thereto

and withdraw the dispute from arbitration. The Independent Accounting Firm shall (i) act as an arbitrator, and its determination

shall be final, binding, and non-appealable, except in the case of manifest error or fraud, (ii) address only those items in dispute

and all determinations shall be based solely on the written presentations of Seller Representative and Buyer and their respective representatives,

and not by independent review, and (iii) for each item, not assign a value greater than the greatest value for such item claimed

by either Seller Representative or Buyer or smaller than the smallest value for such item claimed by either Seller Representative or

Buyer. The decision of the Independent Accounting Firm shall be final and binding on the Parties. Judgment may be entered upon the determination

of the Independent Accounting Firm in any court having jurisdiction over the Party against which such determination is to be enforced.

As used in this Agreement, the term “Final Adjustment Certificate” shall mean the Closing Adjustment Certificate delivered

(or deemed delivered) pursuant to Section 2.4(b), as subsequently adjusted, if applicable, pursuant to this Section 2.4(d) to

reflect any subsequent written agreement between the Parties with respect thereto and, if submitted to the Independent Accounting Firm,

any amendments or modifications to the Closing Adjustment Certificate decided by the Independent Accounting Firm.

(e)          Costs

and Expenses. The costs and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm in connection with resolving such disputed matters pursuant

to Section 2.4(d) shall be borne by Buyer, on the one hand, and Sellers, on the other hand, 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. For example,

if the Disputing Party claims the Adjustment Amount is one thousand dollars ($1,000) less than the amount determined by the Preparing

Party, and the Preparing Party contests only five hundred dollars ($500) of the amount claimed by the Disputing Party, and if the

Independent Accounting Firm ultimately resolves the dispute by awarding the Disputing Party three hundred dollars ($300) of the

five hundred dollars ($500) contested, then the costs and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm will be allocated sixty percent

(60%) (i.e., 300 ÷ 500) to the Preparing Party and forty percent (40%) (i.e., 200 ÷ 500) to the Disputing

Party. Prior to the Independent Accounting Firm’s determination of disputed matters pursuant to Section 2.4(d), (i) the

Disputing Party, on the one hand, and the Preparing Party, on the other hand, shall each pay fifty percent (50%) of any retainer paid

to the Independent Accounting Firm and (ii) during the engagement of the Independent Accounting Firm, the Independent Accounting

Firm will bill fifty percent (50%) of the total charges to each of the Disputing Party, on the one hand, and the Preparing Party, on

the other hand.

(f)          Final

Settlement and Adjustment to Purchase Price; Payment.

(i)          (A) If

the Adjustment Amount set forth on the Final Adjustment Certificate is less than the Estimated Adjustment Amount, then the Purchase Price

shall equal the sum of (1) the Closing Payment Amount decreased by an amount equal to the absolute value of such excess of the Estimated

Adjustment Amount over the Adjustment Amount set forth on the Final Adjustment Certificate (a “Shortfall Payment”),

(2) the Deposit (including any interest payable thereon) and (3) the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Amount; and (B) if

the Adjustment Amount set forth on the Final Adjustment Certificate is greater than the Estimated Adjustment Amount, then the Purchase

Price shall equal the sum of (1) the Closing Payment Amount increased by an amount equal to the absolute value of such excess of

the Adjustment Amount set forth on the Final Adjustment Certificate over the Estimated Adjustment Amount (an “Excess Payment”),

(2) the Deposit (including any interest payable thereon) and (3) the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Amount.

(ii)          Any

Shortfall Payment or Excess Payment, as applicable, shall be paid as follows:

(A)          in

the event of an Excess Payment, then, promptly following the determination of the Adjustment Amount set forth on the Final Adjustment

Certificate, and in any event within five (5) Business Days thereafter, (1) Buyer shall pay or cause to be paid in immediately

available funds by wire transfer to Paying Agent (for the benefit of Sellers) an amount in cash equal to the Excess Payment, which Paying

Agent will then promptly disburse to each Seller in accordance with the amounts due to each Seller as set forth in the Payment Spreadsheet

to the account designated on each Seller’s respective Letter of Transmittal, and (2) Buyer and Seller Representative shall

execute joint instructions to the Escrow Agent to pay in immediately available funds by wire transfer to Paying Agent (for the benefit

of Sellers) an amount in cash equal to the balance of funds remaining in the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Account, which Paying Agent

will then promptly disburse to each Seller in accordance with the amounts due to each Seller as set forth in the Payment Spreadsheet

to the account designated on each Seller’s respective Letter of Transmittal;

(B)          in

the event of a Shortfall Payment, then, promptly following the determination of the Adjustment Amount set forth on the Final Adjustment

Certificate, and in any event within five (5) Business Days thereafter, Buyer and Seller Representative shall, subject to Section 2.4(f)(iii),

execute joint instructions to the Escrow Agent to pay in immediately available funds by wire transfer (1) to Buyer in cash equal

to the lesser of (x) the Shortfall Payment and (y) the amount of funds available in the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Account,

and (2) if any funds remain immediately after such payment to Buyer, to Paying Agent (for the benefit of Sellers) an amount in cash

equal to the balance of funds remaining in the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Account, which Paying Agent will then promptly disburse

to each Seller in accordance with the amounts due to each Seller as set forth in the Payment Spreadsheet to the account designated on

each Seller’s respective Letter of Transmittal; or

the event that the Adjustment Amount set forth on the Final Adjustment Certificate is equal to the Estimated Adjustment Amount, Buyer

and Seller Representative shall execute joint instructions to the Escrow Agent to pay in immediately available funds by wire transfer

to Paying Agent (for the benefit of Sellers) an amount in cash equal to the balance of funds remaining in the Purchase Price Adjustment

Escrow Account, which Paying Agent will then promptly disburse to each Seller in accordance with the amounts due to each Seller as set

forth in the Payment Spreadsheet to the account designated on each Seller’s respective Letter of Transmittal.

(iii)          Notwithstanding

anything in this Section 2.4 to the contrary, in no event shall Buyer be entitled to, and in no event shall any Seller have

any liability with respect to, payment pursuant to this Section 2.4(f) of any amount in excess of the Purchase Price

Adjustment Escrow Amount, and the funds in the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Account are Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedy with

respect to any Shortfall Payment (including any interest payable thereon).

(g)          Tax

Treatment. Any payments made pursuant to this Section 2.4 shall be treated as adjustments to the Purchase Price for applicable

income Tax purposes to the extent permitted by applicable Law.

Matters; Purchase Price Allocation.

(a)          For

U.S. federal (and relevant state and local) income Tax purposes, the Parties agree that the acquisition of the Holdings Interests pursuant

to this Agreement shall be treated, consistent with Revenue Ruling 99-6, situation 2, (i) with respect to Sellers, as the purchase

and sale of partnership interests and (ii) with respect to Buyer, as if Holdings had distributed in liquidation to each of the Sellers

their respective pro rata share of Holdings’ assets, and as if Sellers had sold to Buyer their respective pro rata shares of such

assets received from Holdings (the “Intended Tax Treatment”).

(b)          The

Parties agree to allocate the Purchase Price (and any other items properly treated as consideration for such Tax purposes) among the

assets of Holdings (the “Purchase Price Allocation”) for all U.S. federal and applicable state and local Income Tax

purposes in a manner consistent with Sections 751, 755, and 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder. Seller Representative

shall prepare and deliver to Buyer a draft of the Purchase Price Allocation setting forth Seller Representative’s determination

of the Purchase Price Allocation within thirty (30) days following the determination of the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 2.4

(the “Allocation Schedule”). If within thirty (30) days after receiving the Allocation Schedule, Buyer has not objected,

the Allocation Schedule shall be final and binding. If Buyer provides written objection to Seller Representative within thirty (30) days

of receipt of the Allocation Schedule, the Parties shall work in good faith to resolve their differences for the thirty (30) day period

following Seller Representative’s receipt of Buyer’s objections (the “Dispute Resolution Period”). If

Buyer and Seller Representative are unable to agree on such Purchase Price Allocation during the Dispute Resolution Period, any disputed

items shall be resolved by the Independent Accounting Firm applying, mutatis mutandis, the procedures set forth in Section 2.4(d).

If the Purchase Price is adjusted pursuant to this Agreement, Buyer and Seller Representative shall cooperate with each other in order

to adjust the Purchase Price Allocation in accordance with the final Purchase Price Allocation (as agreed to by Buyer and Seller or finally

determined by the Independent Accounting Firm) utilizing the same methodology set forth in the final Purchase Price Allocation and the

same procedure set forth in this Section 2.7(b).

and Seller Representative shall (and shall cause each of their respective Affiliates to) file all Tax Returns consistent with the final

Purchase Price Allocation (as agreed to by Buyer and Seller Representative or finally determined by the Independent Accounting Firm)

and consistent with the Intended Tax Treatment and not take any position inconsistent with the final Purchase Price Allocation or the

Intended Tax Treatment in any administrative or judicial Proceeding or otherwise, provided, however, that neither Party

shall be unreasonably impeded in its ability and discretion to negotiate, compromise and/or settle any administrative or judicial Proceeding

in connection with such allocation or the Intended Tax Treatment.

Section 2.8          Closing

Consideration. At the Merger Effective Time, and subject to the further terms and conditions set forth herein, as consideration

for the Merger, Buyer shall:

(a)          pursuant

to Section 2.6(c)(iii)(B) (x) pay, or cause to be paid, to the Paying Agent, for the benefit of Sellers, the Closing

Payment Amount, by wire transfer of immediately available funds pursuant to wire transfer instructions designated in writing by the Paying

Agent (the “Paying Agent Wire Transfer Instructions”), and (y) execute and deliver, jointly with Seller Representative,

transfer in accordance with instructions provided by the Seller Representative to the Paying Agent. Along with each Letter of Transmittal,

each Seller shall be required (in order for its Letter of Transmittal to be accepted by Holdings) to, among other things, provide a separate

agreement containing the release attached thereto as Exhibit B by such Seller of Buyer and its Affiliates (including the

Acquired Entities) from claims related to such Seller’s ownership of the Holdings Interests. Each Seller’s portion of the

Closing Payment Amount, the Deposit (including any interest payable thereon), and the Purchase Price will be the amount that would be

distributed to such Seller under the Holdings LLC Agreement in respect of its Equity Interests in Holdings, subject to any adjustments,

withholdings or other modifications to the Purchase Price pursuant to this Agreement, which amount is set forth for each such Seller

on a payments schedule to be provided by Holdings to Buyer and Seller Representative at the Closing (the “Payment Spreadsheet”).

Buyer, Seller Representative and the Paying Agent will be entitled to rely, without conducting any independent review, on the Payment

Spreadsheet;

(b)          pursuant

to Section 2.6(c)(iii)(E), pay, or cause to be paid, (i) to the applicable Acquired Entity, with respect to any amounts

payable to any employees or individual non-employee service providers of the Acquired Entities pursuant to clauses (b) and (d) of

the definition of “Outstanding Transaction Expenses,” such amounts for prompt payment to such employees or individual non-employee

services providers through standard payroll processes, and (ii) to the Paying Agent, each other Outstanding Transaction Expense

in the amounts as have been designated in the Estimated Adjustment Statement, in accordance with the Paying Agent Wire Transfer Instructions.

Upon receipt, pursuant to the Paying Agent Agreement, the Paying Agent will disburse to the third party service providers identified

Instructions, the sum of $500,000 (the “Expense Fund Amount”), which amount shall not be deemed to be fees or expenses

its respective Business as currently conducted, except, in each case of (a), (b) or (c), where the failure to be so qualified or

to be in good standing (or the equivalent) would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to be material to the

Acquired Entities, taken as a whole. Holdings has made available true, correct and complete copies of the Governing Documents of each

Acquired Entity, in each case, in full force and effect as of the Effective Date.

Section 3.2          Authority;

of Buyer reasonable access, during normal business hours, to the properties, books and records of the Acquired Entities and furnish to

the representatives of Buyer such additional financial and operating data and other information regarding the business of the Acquired

to jeopardize any applicable privilege (including the attorney-client privilege) available to Sellers, any Acquired Entity or any of their

respective Affiliates relating to such information, (4) information the disclosure of which would cause Sellers, any Acquired Entity

or any of their respective Affiliates to breach a confidentiality obligation to which it is bound; provided that, in each of the

foregoing cases, Seller shall notify Buyer of any such refusal or inability to provide such access or information and shall use commercially

reasonable efforts to make appropriate substitute arrangements that would reasonably allow Seller or the relevant Acquired Entity to provide

such information or access to Buyer and its representatives; or (5) any Tax Return of Sellers;

Person has signed a customary agreement relating to such access to work papers in form and substance reasonably acceptable to such auditors

or accountants.

(d)            Communications.

Prior to the Closing, without the prior written consent of Holdings, which Holdings may withhold for any reason or no reason whatsoever

in its discretion, Buyer shall not (and shall not permit any of its Affiliates or its or their respective employees, counsel, accountants,

consultants, financing sources or other representatives to) (i) contact any supplier, customer, distributor, contractor or employee

of any Acquired Entity, or any Affiliate thereof, in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or engage in any discussions

with any supplier, customer, distributor, contractor or employee of any Acquired Entity, or any Affiliate thereof, in respect of the transactions

contemplated hereby, or to otherwise discuss the Business or operations of the Acquired Entities, or (ii) make any announcement or

communication to any supplier, customer, distributor, contractor or employee of any Acquired Entity; provided, that this

Section 5.1(d) shall not prohibit (A) any contact by Buyer, its Affiliates or their respective representatives with

employees, customers or suppliers of any Acquired Entity in the ordinary course of business of such entity, consistent with past practice

and unrelated to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 5.1(d) to

the contrary, nothing herein shall restrict or limit Buyer or any of its Affiliates from making any announcement, filing, or communication

to the extent required by applicable Securities Laws, any rule or regulation of the SEC, or any rule or regulation of any national

securities exchange or quotation system on which Buyer’s securities are listed or traded.

(e)            Mexican

Subsidiaries. During the Pre-Closing Period, Holdings shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each of the Mexican Subsidiaries

of the board of managers of such Acquired Entity, (ii) revoke any existing power of attorney for such Acquired Entity and (iii) if

requested in writing by Buyer, (A) designate the new board of managers of such Acquired Entity (acceptable to Buyer, in its reasonable

Section 5.2          Pre-Closing

Restructuring.

(a)            Prior

to the Closing, Holdings shall, or shall cause the applicable Acquired Entity to, effect the transfer, distribution, or other disposition

of all of the Equity Interests in the Persons identified on Schedule 5.2 (collectively, the “Excluded Entities”)

held, directly or indirectly, by any Acquired Entity to any Person other than the Acquired Entities (the “Pre-Closing Restructuring”),

such that, as of immediately prior to the Closing, no Acquired Entity shall own, directly or indirectly, any Equity Interests in the Excluded

Entities. Holdings shall use commercially reasonable efforts to complete the Pre-Closing Restructuring no later than the Closing Date.

(b)            Holdings

shall keep Buyer reasonably informed of the status of the Pre-Closing Restructuring and shall promptly provide Buyer with copies of all

material documents and instruments to be executed in connection therewith for Buyer’s review. Buyer shall, and shall cause its Affiliates

to, cooperate reasonably with Holdings in connection with the Pre-Closing Restructuring, including executing and delivering such documents

and taking such actions as are reasonably requested by Holdings; provided that such cooperation shall not require Buyer to incur

any material cost or expense (unless reimbursed by Holdings prior to the Closing) or to take any action that would be materially adverse

to Buyer or the Acquired Entities from and after the Closing. Promptly upon the completion of the Pre-Closing Restructuring (or, if the

Pre-Closing Restructuring is completed in stages, promptly upon completion of each stage), Holdings shall deliver to Buyer notice that

the Pre-Closing Restructuring (or the applicable stage thereof) has been completed.

connection with the Pre-Closing Restructuring, Holdings shall, or shall cause the applicable Acquired Entity to, use its commercially

reasonable efforts to enter into agreements with the applicable transferee of the Excluded Entities containing customary release and indemnification

provisions with respect to the businesses, assets and liabilities of the Excluded Entities (in form and substance reasonably acceptable

to Buyer) in favor of the applicable Acquired Entities (as determined without regard to the Excluded Entities); provided that the

Pre-Closing Restructuring shall not (i) result in any material Tax liability to the Acquired Entities (as determined without regard

to the Excluded Entities) or Buyer and (ii) result in any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) on the Acquired Entities or any of their

respective assets or leave the Acquired Entities or any of their respective assets (as determined without regard to the Excluded Entities)

with any ongoing Liability as it relates to the Excluded Entities.

Section 5.3          Antitrust

Laws.

(a)            Each

of Buyer and Holdings will, and will cause its Affiliates to, (i) cause the Notification and Report Forms required pursuant to the

HSR Act with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby to be filed no later than twenty (20) Business Days after the date of execution

of this Agreement, (ii) request early termination of the waiting period relating to such HSR Act filings, (iii) supply as promptly

as practicable any additional information, documents or testimony that may be requested by a Governmental Entity pursuant to the HSR Act

or any other Antitrust Law, and (iv) otherwise use its reasonable best efforts to cause the expiration or termination of all applicable

waiting periods under the HSR Act or any other applicable Antitrust Law with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby as soon as

possible (and in any event prior to the Outside Date). The Parties shall, and shall cause their Affiliates to, use reasonable best efforts

to obtain as soon as possible (and in any event prior to the Outside Date), and to cooperate with each other to obtain, all authorizations,

approvals, clearances, consents, actions or non-actions of any Governmental Entity required to consummate the transactions contemplated

hereby. Each Party shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, promptly inform the other Parties of any material communication to or from

any Governmental Entity regarding any of the transactions contemplated hereby. If a Party or any of its Affiliates receives any formal

or informal request for information, documents or testimony from any Governmental Entity with respect to the transactions contemplated

hereby, then such Party and its Affiliates shall make, or cause to be made, as promptly as practicable, a response in compliance with

such request. Buyer and Holdings shall each be responsible for fifty percent (50%) of all filing fees required by applicable Law (including

the HSR Act) to any Governmental Entity in order to obtain any authorizations, approvals, clearances, consents, actions or non-actions

in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Seller Required Regulatory Approvals.

(b)            Holdings

and Buyer shall keep each other apprised of the status of matters relating to the completion of the transactions contemplated by this

Agreement and promptly furnish the other with copies of notices or other material communications between Holdings or Buyer (including

their respective Affiliates and representatives), as the case may be, and any Governmental Entity or other Person with respect to such

transactions, provided that Buyer shall have the right, in consultation with Holdings, to determine, devise, control, direct and implement

the strategy, communications, and timing for, and make all material decisions relating to (and shall take the lead in all meeting and

communications with any Governmental Entity relating to), obtaining any requisite regulatory approvals after considering in good faith

all comments of Holdings (and its counsel). Holdings, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, shall give the other Party and its

counsel a reasonable opportunity to review in advance, and consider in good faith the views and input of the other Party in connection

with, any proposed communication by such Party or its Affiliate to any Governmental Entity relating to the transactions contemplated by

this Agreement. Each Party agrees not to, and to cause its Affiliates not to, participate in any meeting, conference, or discussion, either

in person or by telephone or videoconference, with any Governmental Entity in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement

unless it consults with the other Party in advance and, to the extent not prohibited by such Governmental Entity, gives the other Party

the opportunity to attend and participate. Buyer shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, without the prior written consent of

Holdings (not to be unreasonably withheld), (i) “pull-and-refile,” pursuant to 16 C.F.R. § 803.12, any filing made

under the HSR Act, (ii) extend or restart the waiting, review or investigation period under any applicable Antitrust Law or (iii) offer,

of Buyer and Holdings shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, use reasonable best efforts to resolve objections, if any, as may be asserted

by any Governmental Entity with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement under the HSR Act, the Sherman Act, as amended,

the Clayton Act, as amended, the Federal Trade Commission Act, as amended, and any other Laws that are designed or intended to prohibit,

restrict or regulate actions having the purpose or effect of monopolization, restraint of trade or lessening of competition through merger

or acquisition (collectively, the “Antitrust Laws”). Each of Buyer and Holdings shall, and shall cause its Affiliates

to, use reasonable best efforts to take such action as may be required to cause the expiration or termination of all waiting or notice

periods under the HSR Act or other Antitrust Laws with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby as soon as possible after the execution

of this Agreement (and in any event prior to the Outside Date). In connection with and without limiting the foregoing, Buyer agrees to,

and to cause its Affiliates to, take promptly any and all steps necessary to avoid or eliminate each and every impediment under any Antitrust

Laws that may be asserted by any Governmental Entity or other Person so as to enable the Parties to close the transactions contemplated

by this Agreement as soon as possible (and in any event prior to the Outside Date), including taking all such action as may be necessary

or advisable to resolve such objections, if any, as any Governmental Entity or other Person may assert under any Antitrust Laws with respect

to the transactions contemplated hereby. At the request of Holdings, Buyer shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, contest, resist,

defend, litigate on the merits and appeal, including through the issuance of a final, non-appealable order or other Law, any Proceeding

brought by a Governmental Entity or other Person, whether judicial or administrative, challenging or seeking to delay, restrain or prohibit

the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(d)            For

the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, and without limiting the generality of

the foregoing, Buyer shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, take any and all steps necessary to eliminate each and every impediment

under the HSR Act and any other Antitrust Law that is asserted by any Governmental Entity or any other Person so as to enable the Parties

to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby as soon as possible, and in any event prior to the Outside Date, including, but not

limited to, offering, proposing, negotiating, agreeing and committing to and effecting, by consent decree, hold separate order or otherwise,

(i) divestitures, sales, transfers or other dispositions of, licenses of, or hold separate or similar arrangements with respect to,

any assets, businesses or interests of Buyer, Buyer’s Affiliates or the Acquired Entities, (ii) the termination, amendment,

assignment or creation of relationships, contractual rights or obligations, ventures or other arrangements of Buyer, Buyer’s Affiliates

or the Acquired Entities, (iii) conduct of business restrictions, including restrictions on Buyer’s or its Affiliates’

ability to manage, operate or own any assets, businesses or interests, (iv) any other change or restructuring of Buyer, Buyer’s

Affiliates or the Acquired Entities and other actions and non-actions with respect to assets, businesses or interests of Buyer, Buyer’s

Affiliates or the Acquired Entities and (v) any other condition, commitment, remedy or undertaking of any kind, in each case of (i) through

(v), in order to obtain any and all actions, clearances, approvals, consents, waiting period expirations or terminations and Laws

from Governmental Entities as soon as possible, and in any event prior to the Outside Date, including committing to take any and all actions

necessary in order to ensure that (x) no requirement for non-action, a waiver, consent, clearance or approval of any Governmental

Entity, (y) no decree, judgment, decision, injunction, temporary restraining order or any other Law in any Proceeding and (z) no

other matter relating to any Antitrust Law, would preclude the occurrence of the Closing prior to the Outside Date; provided, however,

that Buyer and its Affiliates shall not be required to take any action described in clauses (i) through (v) (such

an action, a “Remedy Action”) if such Remedy Action would require Buyer, Buyer’s Affiliates or the Acquired Entities

to divest or hold separate (or agree to divest or hold separate) or otherwise take or commit to take any action that limits in any material

respect its freedom of action with respect to, or its ability to retain, any businesses, product lines or assets of Buyer, Buyer’s

Affiliates or the Acquired Entities. In addition, Buyer, Buyer’s Affiliates, and the Acquired Entities shall be under no obligation

to take any Remedy Action if the Federal Trade Commission or the Department of Justice authorizes its staff to seek a preliminary injunction

or restraining order to enjoin consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or if any Governmental Entity outside of

the United States seeks comparable relief under any antitrust, competition or trade regulation Laws.

(e)            Buyer

shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, acquire or agree to acquire, by merging with or into or consolidating with, or by purchasing

a portion of the assets of or equity in, or by any other manner, any Person if the entering into of a definitive agreement relating to,

or the consummation of such acquisition, merger or consolidation, or the taking of such action, would reasonably be expected to (i) impose

any material delay in the obtaining of, or materially increase the risk of not obtaining, any clearances, approvals or consents of any

Governmental Entity necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the expiration or termination of any applicable

waiting period; (ii) materially increase the risk of any Governmental Entity seeking or entering an order or other Law prohibiting

the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; or (iii) materially delay or prevent the consummation of the

transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 5.4          R&W

Insurance Policy. Should Buyer or its Affiliates acquire a representation and warranty insurance policy in connection with the

transaction (the “R&W Insurance Policy”), then such R&W Insurance Policy shall expressly provide that (and

Buyer expressly acknowledges that) the insurer shall have no, and shall waive and not pursue any and all rights of subrogation or contribution

against Sellers or any of their Affiliates, or any of its or their respective equityholders, members, partners, directors, officers, employees

or agents (the “Seller Parties”), except in the case of Seller’s Fraud. The R&W Insurance Policy shall further

provide that (a) Buyer, its Affiliates, and the insurers and underwriters shall not amend, delete, modify or waive the foregoing

waiver without Seller Representative’s prior written consent and (b) the Seller Parties shall be express third-party beneficiaries

of such waiver. In connection with Buyer’s procurement of the R&W Insurance Policy, Holdings shall provide the insurer thereunder

with reasonable access to the Data Room and other due diligence materials as reasonably requested by Buyer or such insurer.

Section 5.5          Casualty

and Condemnation.

(a)            Notwithstanding

anything herein to the contrary, from and after the Effective Date, if the Closing occurs, Buyer shall assume all risk of loss with respect

to the depreciation of all assets and properties of the Acquired Entities due to ordinary wear and tear. If, after the Effective Date

but prior to the Closing Date, any portion of the tangible physical assets of the Acquired Entities set forth on Schedule 5.5(a) (the

“Tangible Assets”) are destroyed by fire, explosion, hurricane, storm, weather events, earthquake, act of nature, civil

unrest or similar disorder, terrorist acts, war or any other hostilities or is expropriated or taken by any Governmental Entity (each

a “Casualty Loss”), Holdings shall notify Buyer in writing within five (5) Business Days of such Casualty Loss,

and Buyer and Holdings shall in good faith agree to an estimate of the cost to restore the affected Tangible Assets to their prior condition

net of available insurance or other third-party proceeds (the “Restoration Cost”). Buyer and Holdings shall nevertheless

be required to proceed with the Closing; provided, that, if the Restoration Cost exceeds $25,000,000, Holdings shall cause

the Tangible Assets affected by such Casualty Loss to be repaired or restored to substantially the same condition as existed immediately

prior to such Casualty Loss, reasonable wear and tear excepted, at Holdings’ sole cost and expense, as promptly as reasonably practicable;

provided further, that if such repair or restoration is not completed prior to the Closing Date, the Purchase Price shall be reduced

by the amount of the applicable Restoration Cost (less any insurance, condemnation award or other third-party proceeds to which Holdings

or any of its Affiliates is entitled in respect of such Casualty Loss).

(b)            In

the event that Holdings and Buyer do not agree on the Restoration Cost as proposed by Holdings pursuant to Section 5.5(a),

Holdings and Buyer shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such disagreement. If Holdings and Buyer are unable to agree on the Restoration

Cost within twenty (20) days after Buyer’s receipt of Holdings’ proposed Restoration Cost, the Restoration Cost shall be determined

by an independent third-party appraiser mutually selected by Holdings and Buyer (and in the absence of agreement between Holdings and

Buyer as to the selection of such independent third-party appraiser within five (5) Business Days following the end of such twenty

(20)-day period, the independent third-party appraiser shall be selected by the Houston, Texas office of the American Arbitration Association).

The independent third-party appraiser shall act as an expert (and not as an arbitrator) and shall address only the items in dispute, and

its determination of the Restoration Cost shall not be greater than the greatest value claimed by either Party or smaller than the smallest

value claimed by either Party. The determination of the independent third-party appraiser shall be final and binding on the Parties, absent

manifest error or fraud. The costs and expenses of the independent third-party appraiser shall be borne by Holdings, on the one hand,

and Buyer, on the other hand, in inverse proportion to the amounts by which the Restoration Cost as finally determined by the independent

third-party appraiser varies from the respective Restoration Cost amounts proposed by Holdings and Buyer.

Section 5.6          Certain

Tax Matters.

(a)            The

Parties agree that all income Tax deductions in connection with the payment of any fees and expenses payable by the Acquired Entities

that are included in the calculation of Outstanding Transaction Expenses, Closing Indebtedness Amount, or taken into account as a liability

in Adjusted Working Capital, to the extent paid at or before Closing, shall be allocated to the Pre-Closing Tax Period to the extent such

deductions are “more likely than not” deductible in a Pre-Closing Tax Period.

(b)            Seller

Representative shall be responsible for, and shall cause to be prepared and filed at the sole cost and expense of the Sellers, all Pass-Through

Tax Returns required to be filed after the Closing (taking into account any extensions). Seller Representative shall (i) cause such

Pass-Through Tax Returns to be prepared in accordance with past practice, except as otherwise required by applicable Law, (ii) at

least fifteen (15) days prior to the due date for filing thereof (taking into account any extensions), deliver a draft copy of such Pass-Through

Tax Return to Buyer for its review and comment, and (iii) consider in good faith all reasonable comments from Buyer that are provided

to Seller Representative no later than five (5) days prior to the due date for filing thereof (taking into account any extensions).

shall be responsible for, and shall cause to be prepared and filed, all Tax Returns of the Acquired Entities (other than Pass-Through

Tax Returns) relating to any Pre-Closing Tax Period that are required to be filed after the Closing Date; provided, that with respect

to any such Tax Return for which the amount of Taxes would be included in the determination of the Pre-Closing Income Tax Amount or Adjusted

Working Capital, (i) Buyer shall cause such Tax Returns to be prepared in accordance with past practice, to the extent such past

practice is at least “more likely than not” supportable under applicable Law, and applicable Law, (ii) at least fifteen

(15) days prior to the due date for filing thereof (taking into account any extensions) any such Tax Return, Buyer shall deliver a draft

copy of such Tax Return to Seller Representative for its review and comment, and (iii) Buyer shall consider in good faith all reasonable

comments from Seller Representative that are provided to Buyer no later than five (5) days prior to the due date for filing thereof

(taking into account any extensions).

(d)            For

purposes of calculating Adjusted Working Capital or the Pre-Closing Income Tax Amount or as is otherwise necessary or relevant for purposes

of this Agreement (i) the amount of any Taxes other than ad valorem or property Taxes of an Acquired Entity for the Pre-Closing Tax

Period will be determined based on an interim closing of the books as of the end of the Closing Date, provided, that any exemptions

or allowances calculated on an annual basis (such as for depreciation or amortization) shall be apportioned in the manner described in

clause (ii) of this sentence, and (ii) the amount of ad valorem or property Taxes of any Acquired Entity that relates

to the Pre-Closing Tax Period will be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire taxable period that includes the Closing Date

multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the taxable period ending on and including the Closing Date

and the denominator of which is the number of days in such taxable period.

(e)            Within

fifteen (15) days after the receipt of written notice from a Taxing Authority regarding the commencement of a Pass-Through Tax Contest

with respect to any Acquired Entity, the Parties shall provide one another with written notice thereof. With respect to any Pass-Through

Tax Contest, the Seller Representative, at the sole cost and expense of the Sellers, shall have the sole control. With respect to any

Tax audit, assessment, litigation or other similar Proceeding in respect of any Acquired Entity for any Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle

Period (other than a Pass-Through Tax Contest) that could reasonably be expected to (A) give rise to any material Tax liability imposed

on Sellers (or any of their direct or indirect owners), (B) result in an increase in the Pre-Closing Income Tax Amount, or (C) result

in a reduction in the current Tax assets or an increase in current Tax Liabilities taken into account in Adjusted Working Capital (a “Buyer-Controlled

Tax Contest” and together with a Pass-Through Tax Contest, a “Tax Contest”), Buyer shall have the sole control.

In the case of a Pass-Through Tax Contest, the Seller Representative shall be the “controlling party” and Buyer shall be the

“non-controlling party,” and in the case of Buyer-Controlled Tax Contest, the Buyer shall be the “controlling party”

and the Seller Representative shall be the “non-controlling party.” With respect to a Tax Contest, the controlling party shall:

(a) keep the non-controlling party reasonably informed regarding any developments concerning such Tax Contest, including by promptly

providing the non-controlling party with copies of all written correspondence with the applicable Taxing Authority; (b) allow the

non-controlling party to reasonably participate in such Tax Contest (at the non-controlling party’s sole cost and expense); and

(c) not settle, compromise or take any material action in respect of any such Tax Contest without the non-controlling party’s

prior written consent, which such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(f)            Each

Party shall cooperate (and cause its Affiliates to cooperate) fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by each other Party, in

connection with the preparation and filing of Tax Returns, pursuing Tax refunds, and any audit, examination, or Proceeding (including

any Tax Contest) with respect to Taxes and payments in respect thereof. Such cooperation shall include the provision of records and information

which are reasonably relevant to any such Tax Return, Tax refund, or audit, examination, or Proceeding and making employees available

on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. Following the Closing,

Buyer agrees to retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Acquired Entities relating to any taxable period

beginning before the Closing Date until the expiration of the statute of limitations of the respective taxable periods, and to abide by

all record retention agreements entered into with any Taxing Authority. Any reasonable, out-of-pocket costs or expenses incurred by one

Party or its Affiliates in connection with a request by the other Party pursuant to this Section 5.6(f) shall be reimbursed

by the requesting Party.

(g)            All

transfer, documentary, sales, use, value added, goods and services, stamp, registration, notarial fees and other similar Taxes and fees

imposed with respect to Buyer’s acquisition of the Holdings Interests (collectively, “Transfer Taxes”), shall

be borne 50% by Buyer and 50% by Seller Representative (on behalf of the Sellers). The Party responsible under applicable Law for filing

the Tax Returns with respect to any such Transfer Taxes shall prepare and timely file such Tax Returns and promptly provide a copy of

such Tax Return to the other Party, and the non-filing Party will promptly reimburse the other Party for its portion of the Transfer Taxes

so payable upon receipt of written notice that such Transfer Taxes are payable. Seller Representative and Buyer will, and will cause their

respective Affiliates to, cooperate in good faith to timely prepare and file and join in the execution of any such Tax Returns and other

documentation, including any claim for exemption or exclusion from the application or imposition of any Transfer Taxes, and to minimize

or eliminate the amount of any Transfer Taxes to the extent permitted by applicable Law.

(h)            Any

transactions occurring or actions taken on the Closing Date but after the Closing by, or with respect to, any Acquired Entity shall, to

the extent occurring or taken outside the ordinary course of business, be treated (and consistently reported by the Parties) as occurring

in a Post-Closing Tax Period.

(i)            After

the Closing, Buyer shall not, and shall not permit the Acquired Entities to, without the prior written consent of Seller Representative

(not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) or except as required by Law as mutually agreed between the Buyer and Seller

Representative acting reasonably and in good faith: (i) extend or waive, or cause to be extended or waived, or permit the Acquired

Entities to extend or waive, any statute of limitations or other period for the assessment of any Tax or deficiency related to any Pre-Closing

Tax Period, (ii) file or amend any Tax Return of any Acquired Entity relating to any Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period, (iii) make

or change any Tax election (including any such election under Sections 336 or 338 of the Code) or an accounting method or practice, that

in any case, has retroactive effect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period, or (iv) initiate any voluntary disclosure or

other communication with any Taxing Authority relating to any Tax payment or Tax Return filing obligation of the Acquired Entities for

any Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period, in each case of clauses (i) through (iv), solely if such action could

reasonably be expected to (A) have an adverse effect on Sellers (or any of their direct or indirect owners), (B) result in an

increase in the Pre-Closing Income Tax Amount, or (C) result in a reduction in the current Tax assets or an increase in current Tax

Liabilities taken into account in Adjusted Working Capital. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties agree that, in connection with

any Income Tax audit or Proceeding of a Pass-Through Tax Return, at the direction of Buyer, the applicable Acquired Entity shall make

an election under Code Section 6226 (or, if applicable, any similar provision of state or local Law).

(j)            Holdings

shall terminate or cause to be terminated prior to the Closing any Tax allocation, sharing, indemnity or reimbursement agreement or arrangement

between any Seller or any of their respective Affiliates (other than any Acquired Entity), on the one hand, and any Acquired Entity, on

the other hand.

(k)            Prior

to the Closing, Holdings and its Affiliates shall not take or fail to take (or cause to be taken or fail to be taken) any action that

could reasonably be expected to amend, modify, rescind, or nullify in whole or in part any existing or pending Tax abatement, holiday,

exemption, reduction, or similar Tax benefit or arrangement or Contract with a Taxing Authority (such as a payment in lieu of Taxes) that

could reasonably be expected to adversely affect the liability for Taxes of Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including, following the Closing,

any Acquired Entity).

(l)            Each

Party shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as it is required

to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law.

If a Party determines that any deduction or withholding is required in respect of a payment pursuant to this Agreement (other than any

obligation to withhold that arises with respect to compensatory payments or the failure of any Seller to deliver a duly executed IRS Form W-9),

such Party shall provide written notice to the Person due to receive such payment reasonably in advance of and, to the extent known at

the time, at least five (5) days prior to the date on which such payment is to be made, of the amounts subject to withholding and

shall cooperate in good faith with such Person to eliminate or reduce any such withholding or deduction to the extent permitted by Law;

provided, that unless otherwise required by a change in applicable Law after the Effective Date, no amounts will be withheld from

any payments or consideration to a Seller in respect of the Subject Interests so long as such Seller delivers a duly executed IRS Form W-9

for such Seller (or, if such Seller is treated as an entity disregarded as separate from its regarded tax owner for U.S. federal income

tax purposes, the Person that is treated as its regarded tax owner for such purposes) on or prior to the Closing Date. Each Party shall

remit all withheld amounts to the applicable Taxing Authority in accordance with applicable Law. Any amounts that are deducted and withheld

and remitted to the applicable Taxing Authority in accordance with this Section 5.6(l) shall be treated for all purposes

of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which the deduction and withholding was made.

Section 5.7          Press

Release. Any press or other public release or announcement concerning the transactions contemplated hereby shall not be issued

without the consent of each of Buyer and Seller Representative, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

Except in connection with the procurement of any necessary consents, approvals, payoff letters and similar documentation, the Parties

shall keep the terms of this Agreement confidential, except to the extent required by applicable Law and except that the Parties may disclose

such terms to their and their Affiliates’ respective accountants, legal advisors, equityholders and other representatives as necessary

in connection with the ordinary conduct of their respective businesses (so long as such Persons agree to keep the terms of this Agreement

confidential). Nothing in this Section 5.7 shall prevent Buyer or its Affiliates from making any announcement, filing, or

communication to the extent required by applicable Securities Laws, any rule or regulation of the SEC, or any rule or regulation

of any national securities exchange or quotation system on which Buyer’s securities are listed or traded.

Section 5.8          Expenses.

Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, each Party shall be liable for and pay all of its own costs and expenses (including

attorneys’, accountants’ and investment bankers’ fees and other out-of-pocket expenses) in connection with the negotiation

and execution of this Agreement, the performance of such Party’s obligations hereunder and the consummation of the transactions

contemplated hereby. Buyer and Sellers shall each pay fifty percent (50%) of (i) filing fees under the HSR Act and other Seller Required

Regulatory Approvals, (ii) fees, costs and expenses of the Tail Policy pursuant to Section 5.11(b), (iii) Transfer

Taxes and (iv) fees, costs and expenses of the Escrow Agent and the Paying Agent. For the avoidance of doubt, each Party shall bear

its own attorneys’ fees and other legal expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, submission and prosecution of any

filings with, or any response to any request for additional information, documents or testimony from any Governmental Entity in connection

with the transactions contemplated hereby. Buyer shall pay and be fully responsible for, (i) fees, costs and expenses incurred in

respect of the financing by Buyer and its Affiliates of the transactions contemplated hereby and (ii) premiums, Taxes, fees, commissions,

costs and expenses incurred in respect of the R&W Insurance Policy.

Section 5.9          Further

Assurances. Each Party shall execute and deliver such further instruments of conveyance and transfer and take such additional

action as reasonably requested by any other Party to effect, consummate, confirm or evidence the transactions contemplated hereby and

carry out the purposes of this Agreement.

Section 5.10          Buyer

Release. Effective upon the Closing, and except for (i) the enforcement of rights and obligations under this Agreement

and the other Transaction Documents and (ii) any claim arising from Fraud, Buyer shall and shall cause its Affiliates (including

the Acquired Entities from and after Closing) to absolutely and unconditionally release, acquit and forever discharge Seller Representative,

each Seller, each of their respective Affiliates and each of its and their respective present and former equityholders, officers, directors,

managers, employees, agents, partners, members, counsel, accountants, financial advisors, engineers, consultants and other advisors,

and each of the respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns of any of the foregoing (the “Seller Released

Parties”), from any and all costs, expenses, damages, debts, or any other obligations, Liabilities and claims of any kind or

nature whatsoever, whether known or unknown, both in law and in equity, in each case to the extent arising out of or resulting from the

ownership and/or operation of the Acquired Entities or the assets, business, operations, conduct, services, products and/or employees

(including former employees) of any of the Acquired Entities (and any predecessors thereof), whether related to any period of time before

or after the Closing Date, and Buyer shall ensure that no Acquired Entity seeks to recover any amounts in connection therewith from any

Seller Released Party; provided, that this Section 5.10 shall not affect the rights of Buyer or the Acquired Entities

under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or the rights of any Seller Released Party to indemnification, expense reimbursement

or exculpation under the D&O Provisions.

Section 5.11          Directors

and Officers.

(a)            Buyer

acknowledges that (i) each Person that prior to the Closing served as a director, officer, manager, employee, agent, trustee or fiduciary

of Holdings or any Acquired Entity or who, at the request of any Acquired Entity, served as a director, officer, manager, member, employee,

agent, trustee or fiduciary of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, pension or other employee benefit plan or enterprise

(collectively, with such Person’s heirs, executors or administrators, the “Indemnified Persons”) is entitled

to indemnification, expense reimbursement and exculpation to the extent provided in the Governing Documents in effect as of the Effective

Date (“D&O Provisions”), (ii) such D&O Provisions are rights of Contract and (iii) no amendment or

modification to any such D&O Provisions shall affect in any manner the Indemnified Persons’ rights, or the Acquired Entities’

obligations, with respect to claims arising from facts or events that occurred on or before the Closing with respect to which such Indemnified

Persons are entitled to indemnification, expense reimbursement and exculpation under the D&O Provisions.

(b)            At

or prior to the Closing Date, Holdings shall purchase (at the equal costs and expense of Buyer and Holdings, which cost shall not exceed

$250,000 in the aggregate) and Buyer shall maintain in effect for a period of six (6) years thereafter, (i) a tail policy to

the current policy of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance maintained by the Acquired Entities, which tail policy

shall be effective for a period from the Closing through and including the date six (6) years after the Closing Date with respect

to claims arising from facts or events that occurred on or before the Closing, and which tail policy shall contain substantially the same

coverage and amounts as, and contain terms and conditions no less advantageous than, in the aggregate, the coverage currently provided

by such current policy and (ii) “run-off” coverage as provided by the Acquired Entities’ respective fiduciary and

employee benefit policies, in each case, covering those Persons who are covered on the Effective Date by such policies and with terms,

conditions, retentions and limits of liability that are no less advantageous than the coverage provided under the Acquired Entities’

existing policies (collectively, the “Tail Policy”); provided, that no claims arising from facts or events that

occurred on or before the Closing shall be settled under the Tail Policy without the written consent of the Seller Representative, which

consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

Section 5.12          Access

to Books and Records.

(a)            At

or prior to Closing, Sellers shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, deliver or make available to the applicable Acquired

Entity all original material books, records, corporate ledgers, files, data and documents (in whatever form or medium, including electronic)

of or relating to the Business or the Acquired Entities that are held by Sellers or any of their Affiliates outside of the Acquired Entities

(the “Transferred Records”), including all pre-closing Tax Returns of the Acquired Entities, all environmental reports,

studies, assessments and correspondence relating to the assets of the Business, all permitting files and regulatory correspondence, all

employee records relating to Continuing Employees, and all financial statements and supporting work papers prepared in connection with

the Business; provided that (i) Sellers shall not be required to deliver originals of any Transferred Records if copies thereof

are in the possession of an Acquired Entity (unless delivery of originals or holding of originals is required by applicable Law), (ii) notwithstanding

anything to the contrary in this Section 5.12(a), neither Buyer nor any Acquired Entity shall have any right to receive any

records, analysis or other information prepared by any Seller or any of its Affiliates (other than the Acquired Entities) to the extent

solely relating to such Seller’s or Affiliate’s investment in any of the Acquired Entities (and may redact sensitive investment

information from other Transferred Records), and (iii) each Seller shall be permitted to retain copies of any Transferred Records

at its sole cost and expense, subject to the confidentiality obligations set forth in the Confidentiality Agreement.

(b)            Subject

to Section 5.6(f), from and after the Closing, Buyer and its Affiliates shall (at Sellers’ sole expense) make or cause

to be made available to Seller Representative all books, records, Tax Returns and documents of the Acquired Entities (and the assistance

of employees responsible for such books, records and documents) during regular business hours as may be reasonably necessary for (i) investigating,

settling, preparing for the defense or prosecution of, defending or prosecuting any Proceeding, (ii) preparing reports to Governmental

Entities or (iii) such other purposes for which access to such documents is determined by Seller Representative to be reasonably

necessary, including preparing and delivering any accounting or other statement provided for under this Agreement or otherwise, preparing

Tax Returns, pursuing Tax refunds or responding to or disputing any Tax audit, or the determination of any matter relating to the rights

and obligations of Sellers or any of their Affiliates under this Agreement and any documents referred to herein. Buyer shall (at its sole

expense) cause the Acquired Entities to maintain and preserve all such Tax Returns, books, records and other documents for the greater

of (x) six (6) years after the Closing Date and (y) any applicable statutory or regulatory retention period, as the same

may be extended and, in each case, shall offer to transfer such records to Seller Representative at the end of any such period. Notwithstanding

anything herein to the contrary, Buyer shall not be required to provide any access or information to Seller Representative, its Affiliates

or any representatives of any of the foregoing which Buyer reasonably believes it or, after the Closing, any Acquired Entity, is prohibited

from providing to Seller Representative, its Affiliates or representatives of any of the foregoing by reason of applicable Law, or which

(A) constitutes or allows access to information protected by attorney-client privilege, or which Buyer or the Acquired Entities are

legally required to keep confidential or (B) Buyer must prevent access to by reason of a Contract with a third-party or which would

otherwise expose Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including, after the Closing, each of the Acquired Entities) to a material risk of Liability.

Any Confidential Information provided pursuant to this Section 5.12 shall be subject to the applicable terms and conditions

of the Confidentiality Agreement.

Section 5.13          Insurance.

From the Effective Date until the earlier of the Closing and December 31, 2026, Holdings shall ensure that the Acquired Entities

maintain all insurance policies set forth on Schedule 5.13 in full force and effect on terms and conditions no less favorable than

those in effect on the Effective Date, and shall promptly notify Buyer of any cancellation, lapse, or material modification thereof. If

the Closing has not occurred prior to the scheduled expiration of any such insurance policy, Holdings shall use commercially reasonable

efforts to obtain continued coverage under such policy or alternative coverage on substantially similar terms; provided, that

if obtaining continued coverage under such policy or alternative coverage on substantially similar terms would require the payment of

premiums in excess of the premiums paid for the existing insurance policies (such difference, the “Additional Premiums”),

Holdings shall reasonably promptly notify Buyer thereof, and Buyer shall have the option, exercisable by written notice to Holdings within

five (5) Business Days of receipt of such notice, to either (i) agree to reimburse Holdings for such Additional Premiums, in

which case Holdings shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such continued or alternative coverage on substantially similar

terms, or (ii) decline to reimburse Holdings for such Additional Premiums, in which case Holdings shall have the obligation to obtain

continued or alternative coverage on terms available to Holdings at substantially the same premiums as the existing insurance policies.

Section 5.14          Employee

Matters.

(a)            With

respect to each individual who is an employee of an Acquired Entity as of the Closing (each such employee, a “Continuing Employee”),

Buyer shall, or shall cause the applicable Affiliate to, during the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the twelve (12)-month

anniversary thereof, provide such Continuing Employee with (i) a base annual salary or wage rate that is no less than the base annual

salary or wage rate that is in effect for such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date, (ii) bonus and incentive

compensation opportunities that are substantially similar in the aggregate than the bonus and incentive compensation opportunities provided

to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date and (iii) employee benefits that are no less favorable in the aggregate

than the benefits provided under any Employee Benefit Plans and any other benefit plans, programs or arrangements available to such Continuing

Employee as of the Closing Date excluding any equity or equity-based incentive, defined benefit and retiree or post-employment welfare,

change in control, retention, frozen or grandfathered and nonqualified deferred compensation benefits (collectively, the “Excluded

Benefits”); and (iv) severance benefits in the event of a termination of employment without “cause” at least

as favorable as those set forth on Schedule 5.14(a)(iv). Buyer further agrees that, from and after the Closing Date, Buyer shall

use commercially reasonable efforts to, or shall cause the applicable Affiliate to use commercially reasonable efforts to, grant each

Continuing Employee with credit for any and all service with the Acquired Entities (and any predecessor thereof) earned prior to the Closing

Date, except to the extent such credit would result in a duplication of benefits, (a) for eligibility and vesting purposes and (b) for

purposes of vacation and paid time off accrual and severance benefit determinations under each benefit or compensation plan, program,

agreement or arrangement, excluding the Excluded Benefits, that may be established or maintained by Buyer or the applicable Affiliate

after the Closing Date (the “New Plans”). In addition, Buyer hereby agrees that Buyer shall use commercially reasonable

efforts to, or shall cause the applicable Affiliate to use commercially reasonable efforts to, (i) cause to be waived all pre-existing

condition exclusion and actively-at-work requirements and similar limitations, eligibility waiting periods and evidence of insurability

requirements under any New Plans to the extent waived or satisfied by a Continuing Employee under any Employee Benefit Plan as of the

Closing Date and (ii) cause any deductible, co-insurance and out-of-pocket covered expenses paid on or before the Closing Date by

any Continuing Employee (or covered dependent thereof) to be taken into account for purposes of satisfying applicable deductible, coinsurance

and maximum out-of-pocket provisions after the Closing Date under any applicable New Plan in the year of initial participation during

the year in which the Closing occurs. Nothing contained herein, express or implied, is intended to confer any rights (including any third-party

beneficiary rights), remedies or claims upon any employee of an Acquired Entity, any Continuing Employee or any other Person, other than

the Parties to this Agreement, or shall constitute an amendment to or any other modification of any New Plan or Employee Benefit Plan.

Nothing herein is intended to restrict the Buyer or any Acquired Entity from terminating the employment of any Continuing Employee after

the Closing, provided that Buyer must comply with the severance payment obligations as set forth above.

(b)            Upon

written notice to Holdings no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Board (or the appropriate committee

thereof) shall adopt resolutions and take such corporate action as is necessary to terminate any employee benefit plan that includes a

cash or deferred arrangement intended to qualify under Section 401(k) of the Code maintained by the Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries

(collectively, the “Company 401(k) Plans”), effective as of the day prior to the Closing Date. Holdings shall

provide Buyer with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment, in advance of any adoption or corporate action, on any such resolutions

or corporate actions. Following the Closing, Buyer shall, to the extent permitted by Buyer’s applicable plan that includes a cash

or deferred arrangement intended to qualify under Section 401(k) of the Code (the “Buyer 401(k) Plan”),

permit eligible Continuing Employees who are then actively employed with Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries (including, following the Closing,

the Acquired Entities) to make rollover contributions of “eligible rollover distributions” (within the meaning of Section 401(a)(31)

of the Code), (including promissory notes representing 401(k) plan loans) in an amount equal to the full account balance distributed

to such Continuing Employees from the Company 401(k) Plans to the Buyer 401(k) Plan.

to the Closing Date, Holdings shall (a) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain waivers of any “excess parachute payments”

(within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code) (the “Waived Benefits”), from each Person who is a “disqualified

individual” (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code) and who has received or may receive any payments or benefits that

could reasonably be expected to constitute “parachute payments” (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code) as a

result of or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (b) with respect to any such Person who executes

such a waiver, solicit an approval of shareholders in a manner that complies with Sections 280G(b)(5)(A)(ii) and 280G(b)(5)(B) of

the Code of the Waived Benefits (the “280G Shareholder Approval”). To the extent required to comply with the provisions

of the preceding sentence, Holdings shall cause to be delivered to the applicable shareholders entitled to vote a disclosure statement

that satisfies the adequate disclosure and approval requirements of Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code. Neither Holdings nor

any of its Affiliates shall pay, and no Person shall retain, the Waived Benefits if the 280G Shareholder Approval described above is not

obtained with respect to such Waived Benefits. All calculations, the form of waiver, solicitation of approval and disclosure materials

proposed to be used in connection with any shareholder vote contemplated by this Section 5.14(c) shall be provided to

Buyer and its outside counsel at least five (5) Business Days in advance of distribution to the disqualified individuals or shareholders,

as applicable, and Buyer and its outside counsel shall be provided with a reasonable opportunity to comment thereon and Holdings shall

consider in good faith any reasonable comments with respect to the same as are provided by Buyer or its outside counsel. Prior to the

Closing, Holdings shall deliver to Buyer evidence that the 280G Shareholder Approval was solicited in accordance with the foregoing provisions

of this Section 5.14(c) and that either (i) the 280G Shareholder Approval was obtained or (ii) the 280G Shareholder

Approval was not obtained, and, as a result, no Waived Benefits shall be made or provided.

(d)            Prior

to and with effect immediately prior to the Closing, Holdings shall take all actions necessary to cause the Twin Eagle Holdings N.A.,

LLC Membership Interest Option Plan (the “Option Plan”) and all outstanding unexercised Options (as defined in the

Option Plan) thereunder to be terminated, effective as of the Merger Effective Time, and no consideration will be payable to any holder

of unexercised Options in connection with such termination of the Option Plan and the Options or the transactions contemplated hereby.

Holdings shall provide Buyer copies of any documents proposed to effect such termination prior to adoption with reasonable opportunity

to provide comments and Holdings shall accept all reasonable comments.

(e)            Following

the Closing, Buyer will cause Holdings to make all payments required under the DIP in accordance with the terms thereof and incurred or

accrued prior to or in connection with the Closing (including with respect to any amounts paid to the Sellers under Section 2.4(f)),

which shall constitute an Outstanding Transaction Expense, and Buyer will not cause or permit Holdings to amend, modify or terminate the

DIP prior to its termination pursuant to the terms thereof until such payments required hereby have been paid in full.

(f)            Prior

to or as soon as practicable following the Closing, Holdings shall deliver to Buyer a schedule setting forth, for each individual recipient

under the DIP, (i) the dollar amount of the payment required to be made to such individual pursuant to the DIP in connection with

the payment of the Closing Payment Amount and the Deposit, and (ii) for each such individual, the percentage of any amounts otherwise

payable to the Sellers under Section 2.4(f) that shall be deducted therefrom and paid to such individual pursuant to

the DIP.

Section 5.15          License

of Company Names. On or prior to the Closing Date, Holdings will enter into a license agreement with one or more of the Persons

identified on Schedule 5.15 (the “Licensees”), in such form as is reasonably acceptable to Buyer (the “Company

Name License Agreement”), pursuant to which Holdings will grant the Licensees a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable,

royalty-free, irrevocable worldwide transitional license, for no additional consideration, to use the Company Names, for a period of one

(1) year following the Closing, in substantially the same manner and to substantially the same extent (including with respect to

quality) as used in the Licensees’ businesses immediately prior to the Closing. Each of the Parties hereby acknowledges and agrees

that each Company Name License Agreement shall provide that, upon the date that is one (1) year after the Closing Date, the applicable

Licensee shall cease all uses of the Company Names.

Section 5.16          Transition

Services Agreement. On or prior to the Closing Date, Buyer, Holdings and the Seller Representative shall negotiate in good faith

and finalize the form of a transition services agreement (the “Transition Services Agreement”) to be entered into at

the Closing pursuant to which Buyer and its Affiliates (including the Acquired Entities) will provide certain transition and other services

as described on Schedule 5.16 (the “Transition Services”) for the time period set forth therein, not to

exceed one hundred eighty (180) days following the Closing (except as otherwise set forth on Schedule 5.16). Without limiting the

foregoing, if requested by Seller Representative, Buyer will make the Continuing Employees available, and cause the Acquired Entities

to make the Continuing Employees available, to provide the Transition Services and to otherwise assist Seller Representative in fulfilling

its obligations under this Agreement.

Section 5.17          Certain

Filings. Promptly following the Effective Date, Holdings will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause Twin Eagle Mexico to

prepare any notification or filing required to be made with Mexico’s Comisión Nacional de Energía (“CNE”)

in order to obtain CNE’s approval of any required update to the natural gas marketing permit (the “Marketing Permit”)

held by Twin Eagle Mexico as a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and Buyer will cooperate

with such efforts and provide any information or documentation reasonably requested by Holdings or Twin Eagle Mexico in connection therewith.

Holdings will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause Twin Eagle Mexico, through its current legal representative, to review,

execute and submit such filing, which will state that the transaction remains subject to the Closing. Following the Closing, Buyer will

cause Twin Eagle Mexico to supplement and continue the process. Holdings will not be responsible for obtaining the CNE’s approval

or for any delay or determination by the CNE. Until the earlier to occur of (a) such time as Twin Eagle Mexico has obtained such

approval and (b) twelve (12) months following the Effective Date, none of the Acquired Entities shall market any natural gas under

the Marketing Permit without the prior written consent of Seller Representative. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing restriction

shall apply solely to the marketing of natural gas under the Marketing Permit by the Acquired Entities and shall not restrict or otherwise

apply to the activities of Buyer or any of its other Affiliates (other than the Acquired Entities) in Mexico or any other jurisdiction.

Section 6.1          Termination.

This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing only as follows:

(a)            by

the mutual written consent of Holdings and Buyer;

(b)            by

either Holdings or Buyer by written notice to the other if any Law shall have been issued, entered, enacted or promulgated that permanently

enjoins, prevents, prohibits or makes illegal the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and such Law shall have become

final and non-appealable; provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 6.1(b) shall

not be available to a Party whose breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement resulted in

or primarily caused the issuance, entry, enactment or promulgation of such Law;

the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 6.1(c) shall not be available to (i) a Party whose breach

(d)            by

Holdings, if Buyer breaches in any material respect any of its representations or warranties contained in this Agreement or breaches or

fails to perform in any material respect any of its covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement, which breach or failure to perform

(i) would render a condition precedent to Holdings’ obligations to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby set forth

in Section 2.6(a) or Section 2.6(c) not capable of being satisfied and (ii) after the giving of

written notice of such breach or failure to perform to Buyer by Holdings, cannot be cured or has not been cured by the earlier of the

Outside Date and thirty (30) days after the delivery of such notice; provided, however, that the right to terminate this

Agreement under this Section 6.1(d) shall not be available to Holdings if Holdings is then in material breach of any

Buyer, if Holdings breaches in any material respect any of its representations or warranties contained in this Agreement or Holdings breaches

perform (i) would render a condition precedent to Buyer’s obligations to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby set

forth in Section 2.6(a) or Section 2.6(b) not capable of being satisfied and (ii) after the giving

of written notice of such breach or failure to perform to Holdings by Buyer, cannot be cured or has not been cured by the earlier of the

Outside Date and thirty (30) days after the delivery of such notice; provided, however, that the right to terminate this

Agreement under this Section 6.1(e) shall not be available to Buyer if Buyer is then in material breach of any representation,

conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at the Closing and could have been satisfied or would have been waived assuming a Closing

would occur), (ii) Holdings has notified Buyer that Holdings is ready, willing and able to consummate the transactions contemplated

by this Agreement, and (iii) Buyer fails to complete the Closing within five (5) Business Days after the delivery of such notification

Agreement.

Section 6.2          Effect

of Termination.

(a)            In

the event of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 6.1, this Agreement shall immediately become null and void,

without any Liability on the part of any Party or any other Person, and all rights and obligations of each Party shall cease; provided,

that (a) the Confidentiality Agreement and the agreements contained in Section 5.7, Section 5.8, this Section 6.2

and Article VII of this Agreement shall survive any termination of this Agreement and remain in full force and effect, and

(b) no such termination shall relieve any Party from any Liability arising out of or incurred as a result of its breach of the terms

of this Agreement prior to such termination; provided, further, that in no event shall any Party be entitled to monetary

damages in excess of those expressly set forth in Section 6.2(b) or Section 6.2(d), as applicable, except

in the case of Fraud.

(b)            Notwithstanding

anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in the event that this Agreement may be terminated by (i) Holdings pursuant to Section 6.1(d) or

Section 6.1(f) or (ii) Buyer at a time when Holdings may terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 6.1(d) or

Section 6.1(f), Holdings may, in its sole discretion, elect to either:

(i)            receive

payment of the Deposit, which payment shall constitute liquidated damages (and not a penalty), representing a reasonable estimate of the

actual damages that would be suffered by Holdings in such circumstances, and shall be Holdings’ sole and exclusive monetary remedy

against Buyer and its Affiliates arising from such termination, other than in the case of Fraud, by providing written notice to Buyer,

in which case, within three (3) Business Days of such notice, Buyer and Seller Representative shall deliver a joint written instruction

to the Escrow Agent to distribute the full amount of the Deposit and any interest or other earnings accrued thereon to Holdings; or

(ii)            seek

specific performance of Buyer’s obligations under this Agreement pursuant to and in accordance with Section 7.9;

provided, however, that if Holdings

elects to seek specific performance, Holdings will not be entitled to receive the Deposit unless and until such remedy of specific performance

is not available or is otherwise denied by a court of competent jurisdiction. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event will Holdings be

entitled to receive both a grant of specific performance that results in the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and

payment of the Deposit (other than in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby pursuant to such grant

of specific performance).

of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that the agreements contained in Section 6.2(b), Section 6.2(d) and

this Section 6.2(c) are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and that, without these agreements,

the Parties would not enter into this Agreement. Buyer and Holdings acknowledge and agree that (i) Buyer and Holdings have expressly

negotiated the provisions of Section 6.2(b), Section 6.2(d) and this Section 6.2(c), (ii) in

light of the circumstances existing at the time of the execution of this Agreement, the provisions of Section 6.2(b), Section 6.2(d) and

this Section 6.2(c) are reasonable, and the liquidated damages provisions set forth in Section 6.2(b)(i) represent

a reasonable estimate of the actual damages that would be incurred by Holdings in the circumstances described therein and are not intended

as a penalty.

(d)            In

the event that this Agreement is terminated by (i) Holdings and Buyer pursuant to Section 6.1(a), (ii) either Holdings

or Buyer pursuant to Section 6.1(b) (other than as a result of a Law relating to the Seller Required Regulatory Approvals)

or Section 6.1(c) (other than as a result of the failure to satisfy the conditions set forth in Section 2.6(a)(i),

Section 2.6(a)(ii) or Section 2.6(a)(iii)), or (iii) Holdings at a time when Buyer may terminate this

Agreement pursuant to Section 6.1(e) or Section 6.1(g) (and in each such termination, Holdings is not

otherwise entitled to receive payment of the Deposit pursuant to Section 6.2(b)), then, in each case, within three (3) Business

Days of such termination, Buyer and Seller Representative shall deliver a joint written instruction to the Escrow Agent, instructing the

Escrow Agent to distribute the full amount of the Deposit to Buyer.

(e)            In

the event that this Agreement may be terminated under Section 6.1(e) or Section 6.1(g), Buyer may, in its

sole discretion, elect to either:

(i)            receive

payment of the Deposit by providing written notice to Seller Representative, in which case, within three (3) Business Days of such

notice, Buyer and Seller Representative shall deliver a joint written instruction to the Escrow Agent to distribute the full amount of

the Deposit to Buyer; provided that, in addition to the return of the Deposit, Buyer may seek monetary damages from Holdings, and

such amounts shall constitute Buyer’s sole and exclusive monetary remedy against Holdings arising from such termination, other than

in the case of Fraud; or

(ii)            seek

specific performance of Holdings’ obligations under this Agreement pursuant to and in accordance with Section 7.9;

provided, however, that if the Buyer

elects to seek specific performance, the Buyer will not be entitled to receive the Deposit and any other monetary damages from Holdings

unless and until such remedy of specific performance is not available or is otherwise denied by a court of competent jurisdiction. For

the avoidance of doubt, in no event will the Buyer be entitled to receive both a grant of specific performance that results in the consummation

of the transactions contemplated hereby and return of the Deposit and any other monetary damages from Holdings.

(f)            Notwithstanding

the foregoing, in the event that this Agreement is terminated by either Holdings or Buyer pursuant to (x) Section 6.1(b) (with

respect to any Law relating to the Seller Required Regulatory Approvals) or (y) Section 6.1(c) and at the time of

such termination pursuant to Section 6.1(c), all of the conditions to the Closing set forth in Section 2.6(a) and

Section 2.6(b) have been satisfied or waived, other than any of the conditions set forth in Section 2.6(a)(i),

Section 2.6(a)(ii) or Section 2.6(a)(iii) or those other conditions that, by their nature, cannot be

satisfied until the Closing (and could have been satisfied or would have been waived assuming a Closing would occur), then, within three

(3) Business Days of such termination, Buyer and Seller Representative shall deliver a joint written instruction to the Escrow Agent,

instructing the Escrow Agent to distribute the amount set forth on Schedule 6.2(f) to Holdings and to distribute the remainder

of the Deposit (including any interest or other earnings accrued thereon) to Buyer.

Section 7.3          Assignment.

This Agreement and all of the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors

and assigns; provided, that neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder may be assigned or

delegated by any Party (including by operation of Law) without the prior written consent of Buyer, Seller and Seller Representative.

Section 7.4          Severability.

Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable

Law, but if any provision of this Agreement or the application of any such provision to any Person or circumstance shall be held to be

prohibited by or invalid, illegal or unenforceable under applicable Law in any respect by a court of competent jurisdiction, such provision

shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, illegality or unenforceability, without invalidating the remainder

of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement. Furthermore, in lieu of such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision,

there shall be added automatically as a part of this Agreement a legal, valid and enforceable provision as similar in terms to such illegal,

invalid, or unenforceable provision as may be possible.

Section 7.5          Headings.

The headings and captions used in this Agreement and the table of contents to this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall

not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

Section 7.6          Entire

Agreement. This Agreement (including the Transaction Documents and the Exhibits and Schedules referred to herein), together

with the Confidentiality Agreement, constitute the entire agreement and understanding between the Parties with respect to the subject

matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, whether written or oral, relating to such subject matter in any way.

The Parties have voluntarily agreed to define their rights, Liabilities and obligations with respect to the transactions contemplated

hereby exclusively in Contract pursuant to the express terms and provisions of this Agreement, and the Parties expressly disclaim that

they are owed any duties or are entitled to any remedies not expressly set forth in this Agreement. Furthermore, this Agreement embodies

the justifiable expectations of sophisticated parties derived from arm’s-length negotiations and no Person has any special relationship

with another Person that would justify any expectation beyond that of an ordinary buyer and an ordinary seller in an arm’s-length

transaction.

Section 7.7          Counterparts;

Electronic Delivery. This Agreement and agreements, certificates, instruments and documents entered into in connection herewith

may be executed and delivered in one or more counterparts and by email, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which shall

be considered one and the same agreement. No Party shall raise the use of email to deliver a signature or the fact that any signature

or agreement or instrument was transmitted or communicated through the use of email as a defense to the formation or enforceability of

a Contract and each Party forever waives any such defense.

Section 7.8          Governing

Law; Waiver of Jury Trial; Jurisdiction. The Laws of the State of Delaware shall exclusively govern (i) all claims or matters

related to or arising from this Agreement (including any tort or non-contractual claims) and (ii) any questions concerning the construction,

interpretation, validity and enforceability of this Agreement, and the performance of the obligations imposed by this Agreement, in each

case without giving effect to any choice-of-law or conflict-of-law rules or provisions (whether of the State of Delaware or any other

jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the Laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware. Each

party to this Agreement hereby IRREVOCABLY waives all rights to trial by jury in any action, suit or Proceeding brought to resolve any

dispute between or among any of the parties (whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise) arising out of, connected with, related or

incidental to this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby OR the relationships established among the parties hereunder. THE PARTIES

HERETO FURTHER WARRANT AND REPRESENT THAT EACH HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS LEGAL COUNSEL, AND THAT EACH KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY

WAIVES ITS JURY TRIAL RIGHTS FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL. Each of the Parties submits to the exclusive jurisdiction

of the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware or, if the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware declines to accept jurisdiction, the

Federal District Court for the District of Delaware in any Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, agrees that all claims

in respect of the Proceeding shall be heard and determined in any such court and agrees not to bring any Proceeding arising out of or

relating to this Agreement in any other courts. Nothing in this Section 7.8, however, shall affect the right of any Party

to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by Law or at equity. Each Party agrees that a final judgment in any Proceeding so

brought shall be conclusive and may be enforced by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law or at equity.

Section 7.9          Specific

Performance. Subject to the limitations set forth in Article VI, each Party acknowledges that the rights of each Party

to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby are unique and recognize and affirm that in the event any of the provisions of this

Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or otherwise are breached, money damages would be inadequate (and

therefore the non-breaching Party would have no adequate remedy at Law) and the non-breaching Party would be irreparably damaged. Accordingly,

each Party agrees that each other Party shall be entitled to specific performance, an injunction or other equitable relief (without posting

of bond or other security or needing to prove irreparable harm) to prevent breaches of the provisions of this Agreement and to enforce

specifically this Agreement and the terms and provisions hereof in any Proceeding, in addition to any other remedy to which such Person

may be entitled.

Section 7.10          No

Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is for the sole benefit of the Parties and their permitted assigns and nothing herein

expressed or implied shall give or be construed to give any Person, other than the Parties and such permitted assigns, any legal or equitable

rights hereunder (other than in respect of the Seller Released Parties, the Indemnified Persons and Nonparty Affiliates, each of whom

is an express third-party beneficiary hereunder and entitled to enforce certain obligations hereunder); provided, that notwithstanding

the foregoing, Seller Representative shall be entitled to enforce this Agreement on behalf of any of the Sellers or the Seller Released

Parties as provided in Section 7.13.

Section 7.11          Acknowledgement

and Waiver.

(a)            It

is acknowledged by each of the Parties that Holdings and Seller Representative have retained each of Latham & Watkins LLP, Dentons

López Velarde, S.C. and Norton Rose Fulbright Canada LLP (collectively, “Holdings Counsel”) to act as their

counsel in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and that no Holdings Counsel has acted as counsel for any other Person

in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby for conflict of interest or any other purposes. Buyer agrees that any attorney-client

privilege and the expectation of client confidence attaching as a result of any Holdings Counsel’s representation of Holdings and

Seller Representative related to the preparation for, and negotiation and consummation of, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement,

including all communications among any Holdings Counsel, Holdings, Seller Representative and/or their respective Affiliates in preparation

for, and negotiation and consummation of, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, shall survive the Closing and shall remain

in effect. Furthermore, effective as of the Closing, (i) all communications (and materials relating thereto) between the Acquired

Entities and any Holdings Counsel related to the preparation for, and negotiation and consummation of, the transactions contemplated by

this Agreement shall be deemed to belong solely to Holdings and Seller Representative, (ii) Buyer, on behalf of itself and on behalf

of the Acquired Entities, hereby waives any right to discover or obtain any such communications in any Proceeding, and (iii) Buyer,

on behalf of itself and on behalf of the Acquired Entities, acknowledges and agrees that all such privilege rights shall reside solely

with Holdings and Seller Representative.

(b)            Buyer

agrees that, notwithstanding any current or prior representation of the Acquired Entities by any Holdings Counsel, each Holdings Counsel

shall be allowed to represent Sellers or any of their Affiliates in any matters and disputes adverse to Buyer and/or the Acquired Entities

that either is existing on the Effective Date or arises in the future and relates to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated

hereby; and Buyer, on behalf of itself and the Acquired Entities, hereby waives any conflicts or claim of privilege that may arise in

connection with such representation. Further, Buyer agrees that, in the event that a dispute arises after Closing between Buyer or any

Acquired Entity, on the one hand, and Sellers or any of their Affiliates, on the other hand, any Holdings Counsel may represent Sellers

or such Affiliates in such dispute even though the interests of Sellers or such Affiliates may be directly adverse to Buyer or an Acquired

Entity and even though such Holdings Counsel may have represented an Acquired Entity in a matter substantially related to such dispute.

acknowledges that any advice given to or communication with Sellers or any of their Affiliates (other than the Acquired Entities) shall

not be subject to any joint privilege and shall be owned solely by Sellers or such Affiliate. Buyer hereby acknowledges that it has had

the opportunity to discuss and obtain adequate information concerning the significance and material risks of, and reasonable available

alternatives to, the waivers, permissions and other provisions of this Agreement, including the opportunity to consult with counsel other

than Holdings Counsel.

Section 7.12          Schedules

and Exhibits. All Schedules and Exhibits attached hereto or referred to herein and the Recitals to this Agreement are (a) each

hereby incorporated in and made a part of this Agreement as if set forth in full herein and (b) qualified in their entirety by reference

to specific provisions of this Agreement. Any fact or item disclosed in any section of the Disclosure Schedules with respect to any representation

or warranty in this Agreement shall be deemed disclosed in each other section of the Disclosure Schedules or with respect to any other

representation or warranty in this Agreement to which such fact or item may apply so long as (x) such other section is referenced

by applicable cross-reference or (y) it is reasonably apparent on the face of such disclosure that such disclosure is applicable

to such other section or representation or warranty. The headings contained in the Schedules are for convenience of reference only and

shall not be deemed to modify or influence the interpretation of the information contained in the Schedules or this Agreement. The Disclosure

Schedules are not intended to constitute, and shall not be construed as, an admission or indication that any such fact or item is required

to be disclosed. The Disclosure Schedules shall not be deemed to expand in any way the scope or effect of any representations, warranties

or covenants described in this Agreement. Any fact or item, including the specification of any dollar amount, disclosed in the Disclosure

Schedules shall not by reason only of such inclusion be deemed to be material, to establish any standard of materiality or to define further

the meaning of such terms for purposes of the Agreement and matters reflected in the Disclosure Schedules are not necessarily limited

to matters required by the Agreement to be reflected herein and may be included solely for information purposes. No disclosure in the

Disclosure Schedules relating to any possible breach or violation of any Contract, Law or order shall be construed as an admission or

indication that any such breach or violation exists or has actually occurred. Where only brief particulars of a matter are set out or

referred to in the Schedules or a reference is made only to a particular part of a disclosed document, full particulars of the matter

and the full contents of the document are deemed to be disclosed. The information contained in the Disclosure Schedules shall be kept

strictly confidential by the Parties and no third-party may rely on any information disclosed or set forth therein. Moreover, in disclosing

the information in the Schedules, Holdings and Sellers expressly do not waive 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.

Section 7.13          Seller

Representative.

(a)            In

addition to the other rights and authority granted to Seller Representative elsewhere in this Agreement, each Seller, pursuant to its

respective Letter of Transmittal, hereby appoints Seller Representative as its exclusive agent, attorney-in-fact and representative to

act on behalf of all of the Sellers from and after the Effective Date and to do any and all things and execute any and all documents that

Seller Representative determines are or may be necessary, convenient or appropriate to facilitate the consummation of the transactions

contemplated by the Transaction Documents or perform the duties allocated, or exercise the rights granted, to Seller Representative hereunder,

including: (i) execution of documents and certificates; (ii) receipt of payments under or pursuant to this Agreement and disbursement

thereof to the Sellers and others, as contemplated by this Agreement; (iii) payment of any amounts due to Buyer under or pursuant

to this Agreement, if any; (iv) receipt and, if applicable, forwarding of notices and communications pursuant to this Agreement on

behalf of all or any of the Sellers; (v) administration of, and making decisions and taking actions under, the provisions of this

Agreement, the Escrow Agreement and any other Transaction Document to which Seller Representative is a party; (vi) giving or agreeing

to, on behalf of all or any of the Sellers, any and all consents, waivers, amendments or modifications deemed by Seller Representative,

in its sole and absolute discretion, to be necessary or appropriate under this Agreement and the execution or delivery of any documents

that may be necessary or appropriate in connection therewith; (vii) amending this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement or any of the instruments

to be delivered to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement; (viii) (A) disputing or refraining from disputing, on behalf of each Seller

relative to any amounts to be received by such Seller under this Agreement or any agreements contemplated hereby, any claim made by Buyer

under this Agreement or other agreements contemplated hereby, (B) negotiating and compromising, on behalf of each such Seller, any

dispute that may arise under, and exercising, or refraining from exercising, any remedies available under, this Agreement or any other

agreement contemplated hereby and (C) executing, on behalf of each such Seller, any settlement agreement, release or other document

with respect to such dispute or remedy; and (ix) engaging attorneys, accountants, agents or consultants on behalf of the Sellers

in connection with this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated hereby and paying any fees related thereto.

(b)            The

appointment of Seller Representative is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable by each of the Sellers in any manner or for

any reason. This authority granted to Seller Representative shall not be affected by the death, illness, dissolution, disability, incapacity

or other inability to act of any principal of Seller Representative pursuant to any applicable Law. TERM Holdings, LLC hereby accepts

its appointment as the initial Seller Representative.

Representative may resign from its position as Seller Representative at any time upon (i) providing three (3) Business Days’

prior written notice to Buyer, and (ii) the designation of a replacement Seller Representative by such resigning Seller Representative.

Seller Representative shall notify Buyer in writing of any change in Seller Representative’s notice address or contact information.

(d)            All

acts of Seller Representative hereunder, in its capacity as Seller Representative, shall be deemed to be acts on behalf of the Sellers

and not of Seller Representative individually. Seller Representative, in its capacity as Seller Representative, shall not have any liability

for any amount owed to any Person pursuant to this Agreement, other than in respect of payments of amounts that may be due and are expressly

required to be paid by Seller Representative pursuant to this Agreement. Seller Representative, in its capacity as Seller Representative,

shall not be liable to any Acquired Entity, Buyer or any other Person for any liability of a Seller (in its capacity as such) or otherwise,

or for anything that it may do or refrain from doing in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents. Seller

Representative, in its capacity as Seller Representative, shall not be liable to the Sellers (in their capacity as such) for (i) any

error of judgment, (ii) any act done or step taken or omitted by Seller Representative in good faith, (iii) any mistake in fact

or Law, or (iv) anything that Seller Representative may do or refrain from doing in connection with this Agreement or any agreement

contemplated hereby, except in the case of Seller Representative’s willful misconduct as determined in a final judgment of a court

of competent jurisdiction. Seller Representative may seek the advice of legal counsel in the event of any dispute or question as to the

construction of any of the provisions of this Agreement or its duties or rights hereunder, and it shall incur no liability to the Sellers

in its capacity as Seller Representative and shall be fully protected by the Sellers with respect to any action taken, omitted or suffered

by Seller Representative in good faith in accordance with the advice of such counsel. Seller Representative shall not, by reason of this

Agreement, have a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Seller, except in respect of amounts received on behalf of the Sellers.

(e)            Buyer

and its Affiliates (including Holdings and its Subsidiaries post-Closing) shall have the absolute right and authority to rely upon the

acts taken or omitted to be taken by Seller Representative on behalf of the Sellers pursuant to this Agreement and the other Transaction

Documents, and Buyer and its Affiliates (including Holdings and its subsidiaries post-Closing) shall have no duty to inquire as to the

acts and omissions of Seller Representative. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing reliance shall extend to any disbursement or other

action taken by the Paying Agent or the Escrow Agent at the direction or instruction of the Seller Representative pursuant to the Paying

Agent Agreement or the Escrow Agreement, as applicable.

(f)            Other

than reimbursement for its out-of-pocket expenses incurred in serving as the representative of the Sellers, Seller Representative shall

not be compensated for providing services hereunder except as set forth in this Section 7.13(f). Seller Representative may

use the funds in the Expense Fund Amount to pay any fees, costs, expenses or other obligations incurred by Seller Representative acting

in its capacity as such, including any Shortfall Payment pursuant to Section 2.4(f)(ii)(B). Any Representative Losses (defined

below) shall not be the personal obligation of Seller Representative, but shall be payable by and attributable to the Sellers based on

each such Seller’s Pro Rata Share of such Representative Losses. Without limiting the foregoing, each Seller shall, only to the

extent of such Seller’s Pro Rata Share thereof, indemnify and defend Seller Representative and hold Seller Representative harmless

against any and all losses, liabilities, damages, claims, penalties, taxes, fines, forfeitures, actions, fees, costs and expenses (including

the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of external counsel or experts) (collectively, “Representative Losses”)

arising out of or in connection with the acceptance, performance or administration of Seller Representative’s duties under this

Agreement or any other agreement contemplated hereby, in each case as such Representative Loss is suffered or incurred. If any Representative

Losses are not paid directly to Seller Representative by the Sellers reasonably promptly, as determined by Seller Representative, then

such Representative Losses may be recovered by Seller Representative from the Expense Fund Amount or from any funds that would otherwise

be payable to the Sellers by Buyer (including through the Escrow Agent or the Paying Agent), in each case, no earlier than the date on

which such payments are required to be made pursuant to this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated hereby. In furtherance of the

foregoing, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Seller Representative is hereby granted the right to set off and

deduct any unpaid or non-reimbursed Representative Losses from the Expense Fund Amount or from any funds that would otherwise be payable

to the Sellers by Buyer (including through the Escrow Agent or the Paying Agent). While this Section 7.13(f) allows Seller

Representative to be paid from the sources of funds set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, this Section 7.13(f) does

not (x) relieve any Seller from his, her or its obligation to promptly pay such Seller’s pro rata share of the applicable Representative

Losses based on such Seller’s Pro Rata Share, as such Representative Losses are suffered or incurred or (y) prevent Seller

Representative from seeking any remedies available to it at Law or otherwise. In no event shall Seller Representative be required to advance

its own funds on behalf of the Sellers or otherwise. Upon the request of any Seller, Seller Representative shall provide such Seller with

an accounting of all expenses and liabilities paid by Seller Representative in its capacity as such. If Seller Representative determines

in its sole discretion to return all or any portion of the funds in the Expense Fund Amount to the Sellers, it shall distribute such amount

to the Sellers in accordance with each Seller’s Pro Rata Share. Seller Representative shall not be liable for any loss of the Expense

Fund Amount other than as a result of its bad faith or willful misconduct. For applicable Tax purposes, the Expense Fund Amount shall

be treated as having been received and voluntarily set aside by the Sellers at the time of Closing.
