(b) Estimated Purchase Price. No later than three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall provide to Buyer a statement (the “Estimated Closing Statement”) setting forth an estimate of the Final Purchase Price which shall be based upon (i) the Enterprise Value and (ii) good faith estimates of the Closing Date Cash, the Closing Date Indebtedness, the Net Working Capital Adjustment Amount and the Transaction Expenses (the “Estimated Purchase Price”), in each case, delivered with reasonably detailed supporting calculations and documentation. In the event that Buyer does not agree in good faith with Seller’s calculation of the Estimated Purchase Price, Buyer shall so notify Seller in writing no later than two (2) Business Days after Buyer receives Seller’s calculations, and Seller shall consider in good faith any

4

comments or proposed changes that Buyer may reasonably suggest; provided, however, if Seller disagrees with Buyer’s comments or proposed changes to the Estimated Closing Statement or the Estimated Purchase Price, then the Closing shall occur on the Closing Date and the Seller’s calculations shall be used at Closing.

(c) Post-Closing Adjustments.

(i) Post-Closing Adjustment. As soon as practicable, but no later than one hundred twenty (120) days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Seller a statement setting forth Buyer’s calculation of (A) the Closing Date Cash, (B) the Closing Date Indebtedness, (C) the Net Working Capital Adjustment Amount, (D) the Transaction Expenses and (E) based thereon, Buyer’s calculation of the Final Purchase Price (such calculations, collectively, the “Proposed Purchase Price Calculations”), together with reasonably detailed supporting calculations and documentation (the “Closing Statement”).

(ii) Within forty-five (45) days of receipt of the Closing Statement, Seller may provide written notice to Buyer disputing all or a part of the Proposed Purchase Price Calculations (such notice, a “Purchase Price Dispute Notice”). Such Purchase Price Dispute Notice shall describe in reasonable detail the nature of such disagreement, including the specific items that are disputed and the dollar amounts thereof. If Seller does not provide a Purchase Price Dispute Notice to Buyer within such forty-five (45)-day period, then the parties agree that the Proposed Purchase Price Calculations set forth in the Closing Statement shall become final and binding on the parties hereto. If a Purchase Price Dispute Notice is provided to Buyer within such forty-five (45)-day period, then Seller and Buyer shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to resolve the disputed items during the thirty (30)-day period commencing on the date of Buyer’s receipt of the Purchase Price Dispute Notice.

(iii) If Seller and Buyer do not agree upon a final resolution with respect to any disputed items within such thirty (30)-day period, then the remaining items in dispute shall be submitted immediately to Grant Thornton LLP, or, if such firm declines to be retained to resolve the dispute, another nationally recognized, independent accounting firm reasonably acceptable to Seller and Buyer that does not have a material relationship with Buyer, Seller or any of their respective Affiliates (in either case, the “Accounting Firm”). The parties agree to instruct the Accounting Firm to render a determination of the applicable dispute within forty-five (45) days after referral of the matter to such Accounting Firm, which determination must be in writing and must set forth, in reasonable detail, the basis therefor. The Accounting Firm’s engagement fees shall be initially borne fifty percent (50%) by Seller and fifty percent (50%) by Buyer; provided that such fees shall ultimately be borne by Seller and Buyer in inverse proportion as they may prevail on matters resolved by the Accounting Firm, which proportionate allocations shall also be determined by the Accounting Firm at the time the determination of the Accounting Firm is rendered on the merits of the disputed items. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, all other costs and expenses incurred by the parties hereto in connection with resolving any dispute hereunder before the Accounting Firm shall be borne by the party incurring such cost and expense. In resolving the disputed items, the Accounting Firm (A) shall be bound by the terms of this Agreement, (B) may not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value claimed for such item or less than the smallest value claimed for such item by either Seller or Buyer, (C) shall rely solely on the written submissions of the parties and shall not conduct an independent investigation,

5

(D) shall limit its decision to such items as are in dispute and to only those adjustments as are necessary for the Proposed Purchase Price Calculations to comply with the provisions of this Agreement and (E) shall act as an expert and not as an arbitrator. Such determination of the Accounting Firm shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties hereto. No ex parte conferences, oral examinations, testimony, depositions, discovery or other form of evidence gathering or hearings shall be conducted or allowed.

(iv) Following the Closing Date, each of Buyer and Seller shall and shall cause its Subsidiaries (including the Transferred Subsidiaries), its and their respective accountants, advisors, counsel and personnel to (A) permit the other party and its accountants, advisors, counsel and personnel reasonable access (during normal business hours, with the right to make copies) to the books, records, work papers and personnel of the other party and its Subsidiaries to the extent related to the Business and necessary for the exercise of the parties’ rights and obligations under this Section 1.2 (provided, that Seller may redact any information in the aforementioned materials that do not relate to the Business) and (B) cooperate and assist the other party and its accountants, advisors, counsel and personnel in calculating or reviewing calculations of the Final Purchase Price (and the components thereof) and reviewing the Closing Statement. The obligations contained in this paragraph shall be subject to existing confidentiality obligations of a party, protection of legal privilege and compliance with applicable Law.

(v) Within five (5) Business Days after the date on which the Final Purchase Price is finally determined pursuant to this Section 1.2(c):

(1) if the Final Purchase Price is greater than the Estimated Purchase Price, Buyer shall pay to Seller or other Persons designated by Seller, an amount in cash equal to the amount by which the Final Purchase Price exceeds the Estimated Purchase Price by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Seller Designated Account(s) (or such other accounts as Seller shall designate in writing to Buyer), or

(2) if the Estimated Purchase Price is greater than the Final Purchase Price, Seller shall, or cause its designees to, pay to Buyer an amount in cash equal to the amount by which the Estimated Purchase Price exceeds the Final Purchase Price by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Buyer in writing to Seller.

(vi) Any amount paid pursuant to Section 1.2(c)(v) shall be (A) made by wire transfer of immediately available funds and (B) treated as an adjustment to the Final Purchase Price, as applicable, for Tax reporting purposes.

(d) Accounting Procedures. The Estimated Purchase Price, the Proposed Purchase Price Calculations, the Final Purchase Price, the Estimated Closing Statement and the Closing Statement and the calculations contained therein shall be calculated and determined in accordance with the Accounting Principles (including the same format (and for purposes of calculating Closing Date Net Working Capital, including those line items) as the sample calculations set forth therein).

6

(e) Allocation of the Final Purchase Price. Within ninety (90) days following the final determination of the Final Purchase Price, Buyer shall provide to Seller a schedule allocating the Final Purchase Price and the Assumed Liabilities that are liabilities for Tax purposes (the “Tax Purchase Price”) among the Transferred Equity Interests (or, if the applicable Transferred Subsidiary is disregarded as an entity separate from its owner for U.S. federal income Tax purposes, such Transferred Subsidiary’s assets) and the Transferred Assets (the “Allocation Schedule”), which shall be used for all applicable U.S. federal and state income Tax purposes. The Allocation Schedule will be prepared in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, subject, in each case, to the allocation principles as reflected on Exhibit G. If Seller disagrees with Buyer’s proposed Allocation Schedule, Seller may, within thirty (30) days after delivery of Buyer’s proposed Allocation Schedule, deliver a notice (an “Allocation Objection Notice”) to Buyer which shall specify those items as to which Seller disagrees and the reasons therefore and setting forth Seller’s proposed Allocation Schedule. If an Allocation Objection Notice is duly and timely delivered, Seller and Buyer shall, during the thirty (30) days immediately following such delivery, consult in good faith and use commercially reasonable efforts to reach agreement on the disputed items or amounts in order to agree upon a final Allocation Schedule, in which case Buyer and Seller shall file all Tax Returns in a manner consistent with such Allocation Schedule. If Seller and Buyer are unable to reach such agreement, then Seller and Buyer shall refer the matter to the Accounting Firm for final resolution consistent with the procedures in Section 1.2(c) and in accordance with Exhibit G. The allocation as so finalized (the “Final Allocation”) shall be revised from time to time to appropriately take into account any other adjustments to the Tax Purchase Price made pursuant to this Agreement, and Buyer shall deliver to Seller an amended Final Allocation reflecting any such revisions. The Parties shall file, or cause to be filed, all Tax Returns consistent with the Final Allocation, including as amended (if applicable), and no Party shall take any Tax position inconsistent with such Final Allocation.

Section 1.3 Withholding. Buyer (or any agent of Buyer) and Seller may withhold from amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts of Taxes as are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to such payment under applicable Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and remitted to the applicable Governmental Authority, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made. If a party intends to so withhold, such party shall provide notice to the party in respect of whom such payment is to be made at least five (5) Business Days in advance of any such withholding or deduction (such notice to include the legal authority and the calculation method for the expected withholding), and such parties shall reasonably cooperate with each other to minimize or eliminate such withholding or deduction.

Each of Buyer and Seller shall cooperate to make, as promptly as practicable, all filings and applications with and to, and to obtain all licenses, permits, consents, waivers, approvals, authorizations, qualifications and orders of, applicable Governmental Authorities to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including under the HSR Act). As promptly as practicable following the date hereof, and in no event later than fifteen (15) Business Days after the date hereof, the parties shall make or cause to be made all filings and submissions under any Health Care Law applicable to Seller and Buyer as may be required for the parties to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall solely include those filings and notices made prior to Closing that are set forth on Section 4.3(a) of the Seller Disclosure Letter). In addition, the parties shall coordinate and cooperate with one another in exchanging such information and assistance as the other party may reasonably request in connection with the foregoing.

other applicable Laws).

Nothing herein shall obligate Buyer or Seller or their respective Affiliates to agree to any Remedy Action or other remedy not conditioned on the consummation of the Closing. The obligations applicable to Buyer and its Affiliates in this Section 4.3(a)(B) shall be unconditional and not in any manner qualified or limited by reasonable best efforts. All filing fees incurred in connection with the HSR Act and any other applicable Laws shall be borne in equal portions by Buyer and Seller.

(b) In the event any claim, action, suit, investigation or other proceeding by any Governmental Authority or other Person is commenced or threatened that questions the validity or legality of the transactions contemplated hereby or seeks damages in connection therewith, Buyer, Seller and their respective Affiliates agree to use reasonable best efforts to contest and defend against such claim, action, suit, investigation or other proceeding to avoid entry of, or have vacated, lifted, reversed, repealed, rescinded or terminated, any Order that prohibits, prevents, restricts or delays consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and to eliminate each and every impediment under the HSR Act to close the transactions contemplated hereby as promptly as practicable.

42

Buyer and Seller shall consult with each other prior to taking any material position in discussions with or filings to be submitted to any Governmental Authority. Buyer and Seller shall have joint decision-making authority, including as to process and strategy, with respect to obtaining the required consents of any Governmental Authority to the transactions contemplated hereby. Any materials exchanged in connection with this Section 4.3 may be redacted or withheld as necessary to address reasonable privilege or confidentiality concerns and to remove references concerning the valuation of the Transferred Equity Interests, the Transferred Assets or other competitively sensitive material; provided that the parties hereto may, as they deem advisable, designate any materials provided to the other as “outside counsel only.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, solely with respect to the proposal of Remedy Actions, Buyer shall have sole decision-making authority, including as to process and strategy.

Buyer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates to acquire or agree to acquire any business, Person or division thereof, or otherwise acquire or agree to acquire any assets, if the entering into a definitive agreement relating to or the consummation of such acquisition would reasonably be expected to materially delay in obtaining, or increase the risk of not obtaining, the applicable clearance, approval, consent or waiver from any Governmental Authority with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

The parties intend that the employment of each In-Scope Business Employee employed by a Transferred Subsidiary as of immediately prior to the Closing shall not be affected by the Closing, and neither Seller nor Buyer shall take, or cause to be taken, any actions that would result in a failure of the employment of any such In-Scope Business Employee to transfer by operation of law with the Transferred Subsidiary that employs such employee. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 4.4 or in accordance with applicable Law, all rights, powers, duties, Liabilities and obligations of, or with respect to, each such In-Scope Business Employee shall remain an obligation of the Transferred Subsidiary that employs such employee.

Buyer shall, or shall cause its Affiliate to, extend a Comparable Offer of Employment to any Inactive In-Scope Asset Seller Employee if such employee is cleared to return to active employment within six (6) months after the Closing Date (or such longer period as may be required by applicable Law) and shall commence to employ such individual within five (5) Business Days following the date he or she is so cleared to return to work.

Each such In-Scope Asset Seller Employee shall be provided no less than five (5) Business Days, or such longer period of time required under applicable Law, to review and consider the Offer of Employment prior to the date it expires pursuant to its terms. The parties intend for the employment of the In-Scope Asset Seller Employees to continue uninterrupted on and after the Closing Date. Accordingly, unless a written acceptance is required by any applicable Law, any In-Scope Asset Seller Employee who receives an Offer of Employment from Buyer or its Affiliate prior to the Closing Date and who is employed, as of the Closing Date, with Seller or any its Affiliates, and who continues employment with Buyer or any of its Affiliates, shall be deemed to have accepted the Offer of Employment unless it is affirmatively declined by such In-Scope Asset Seller Employee.

Each In-Scope Business Employee, as applicable, who remains employed by a Transferred Subsidiary as of immediately prior to the Closing or who accepts, or is deemed to have accepted, an Offer of Employment shall, in each case, be referred to as a “Transferred Business Employee” effective as of the Closing, or, in the case of any Inactive In-Scope Asset Seller Employee who becomes a Transferred Business Employee, effective as the date such employee commences employment with the Buyer or its Affiliate (such date, the “Delayed Hire Date”). Except to the extent required by applicable Law or otherwise provided in this Section 4.4, upon becoming a Transferred Business Employee, each Transferred Business Employee will cease (x) all active participation in and accrual of benefits under all Benefits Plans other than the Transferred Plans and (y) receiving payment of their wages from Seller and its Affiliates (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, the Transferred Subsidiaries).

As of and after the Closing, Buyer shall, or shall cause an Affiliate to, give each Transferred Business Employee credit for purposes of eligibility, vesting and accrual under (i) each employee benefit plan, policy or arrangement, and (ii) any other service-based or seniority-based entitlement, in each case maintained or made available for the benefit of Transferred Business Employees as of and after the Closing by Buyer or any of its Affiliates, for such Transferred Business Employee’s service prior to the Closing with Seller and its applicable Affiliates (including the Transferred Subsidiaries) and their respective predecessors, to the same extent such service is recognized by Seller and its applicable Affiliates (including the Transferred Subsidiaries) immediately prior to the Closing; provided that such credit shall not be given for purposes of any defined benefit pension plan, equity incentive plan, retiree health or welfare, change in control or retention benefits or to the extent that it would result in a duplication of benefits for the same period of service. In addition, Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (x) cause to be waived all pre-existing condition exclusions and actively at work requirements and similar limitations, eligibility waiting periods and evidence of insurability requirements under any employee benefit plan in which any of the Transferred Business Employees commence to participate following the Closing Date (any such plan, a “New Plan”) to the extent waived or satisfied by a Transferred Business Employee under any Benefit Plan in which they are then participating and (y) cause any deductible, co-insurance and covered out-of-pocket expenses paid under any Benefit Plan in the plan year in which commencement of participation in the New Plan occurs by any Transferred Business Employee (or covered dependent thereof) to be taken into account for purposes of satisfying the corresponding deductible, coinsurance and maximum out-of-pocket provisions under any applicable New Plan in the year of initial participation.

(f) Vacation, Paid Time Off and Sick Leave. Buyer will recognize and assume all Liabilities with respect to accrued but unused vacation, paid time off and sick leave for all Transferred Business Employees to the extent accrued for and reflected in the Closing Date Net Working Capital.

Buyer shall allow Transferred Business Employees to use the vacation, paid time off and sick leave recognized or established in accordance with the first sentence of this Section 4.4(f) in accordance with the terms of the programs of Seller and its Affiliates in effect immediately prior to the Closing Date (in addition to, and not in lieu of, any vacation accrued under the applicable vacation plans or policies of Buyer or its Affiliates on or following the Closing).

(g) Cash Incentive Compensation. Buyer shall assume all Liability for any cash incentive compensation (including sales commissions, but excluding any deferred compensation) payable under any Benefit Plan set forth on Section 4.4(g) of the Seller Disclosure Letter in respect of the calendar year in which the Closing occurs (or any portion thereof) to Transferred Business Employees in connection with their services to the Business (the “Cash Incentive Compensation”), and Seller and its Affiliates shall not have any Liability for the Cash Incentive Compensation. Buyer will have no Liability for any cash incentive compensation (including sales commissions) payable under any Benefit Plan to any individual (including any Business Employee) who is not a Transferred Business Employee. All Cash Incentive Compensation shall be governed by plans, programs or arrangements maintained by Buyer and its Affiliates (including the Transferred Subsidiaries) for similarly situated employees; provided that the amount of Cash Incentive Compensation actually paid by Buyer and its Affiliates (including the Transferred Subsidiaries) to Transferred Business Employees for the performance period in effect at the Closing Date shall be, in the aggregate, not less than the accrued amount of Cash Incentive Compensation included in the Closing Date Net Working Capital.

As soon as practicable following the Closing Date, Buyer and Seller will cooperate to transfer balances (whether positive or negative) in the healthcare flexible spending accounts of Transferred Business Employees under Seller’s and its Affiliates’ healthcare flexible spending account plan (the “Seller Flexible Spending Account Plan”) on a basis consistent with IRS Rev. Rul. 2002-32 in respect of situations where a buyer agrees to cover employees participating in seller’s flexible spending account arrangement under buyer’s flexible spending account arrangement, and in connection with such transfer, the Buyer or its Affiliate shall deem that such employees’ deferral elections made under the flexible spending account plan of Seller or its Affiliates for the plan year in which the Closing Date occurs shall continue in effect under flexible spending account plan of Buyer or its Affiliate (the “Buyer Flexible Spending Account Plan”) for the remainder of the plan year in which the Closing Date occurs.

Buyer shall be responsible for providing (or causing to be provided) such group health continuation coverage to any Transferred Business Employees (and their eligible beneficiaries and dependents) whose qualifying event occurs after the Employment Transfer Date.

(b) From the date hereof until the earlier of the Closing Date or the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, Seller shall, and shall direct its Subsidiaries and its and their respective officers, directors and employees (collectively, the “Seller Parties”) to, use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Buyer, Buyer’s Subsidiaries and its and their respective officers, directors and employees with assistance as reasonably necessary to transition the human resources functions of the Business at Closing that Buyer cannot reasonably provide in advance of Closing without assistance from the Seller Parties to Buyer and to reasonably cooperate with Buyer in such transition; provided that any such reasonable cooperation and assistance shall (a) be conducted at Buyer’s expense (provided, that such expenses incurred by Seller in connection herewith shall be reasonable and documented in order to be reimbursable by Buyer), in accordance

In the event that the Seller Parties timely cure such alleged breach, Buyer agrees that the cured alleged breach shall not be the basis for Buyer claiming that Section 6.2(b) is not satisfied.

Section 4.17 Further Assurances. Each party hereto shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and its Affiliates’ representatives to, execute and deliver such additional documents, including any instruments, documents, conveyances or assurances, and to take such other actions as shall be necessary, or otherwise reasonably be requested by the other party, to confirm and assure the rights and obligations provided for in this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, and to render effective the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, or otherwise to carry out the intent and purposes of this Agreement.

To the extent the beneficiary or counterparty under any Seller Guarantee does not accept any such substitute Guarantee offered by Buyer, Buyer shall, from and after the Closing, (i) indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller and its Affiliates against, and reimburse each of Seller and its Affiliates for, all amounts paid (including reasonable out-of-pocket costs) in connection with each Seller Guarantee, including Seller’s and its Affiliates’ expenses in maintaining such Seller Guarantees, whether or not any such Seller Guarantee is drawn upon or required to be performed, and shall in any event promptly reimburse Seller and/or its Affiliates to the extent any Seller Guarantee is called upon and Seller or its Affiliates makes any payment or is obligated to reimburse the party issuing the Seller Guarantee and (ii) not without Seller’s prior written consent, amend in any manner adverse to Seller or any of its Affiliates, or extend (or permit the extension of), any Seller Guarantee or any obligation supported by any Seller Guarantee.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, from and after the Closing, with respect to any claim or occurrence relating to the Transferred Assets, the Assumed Liabilities, the Transferred Subsidiaries or the Business arising at or prior to the Closing that would be covered by any of the Seller’s or its Affiliates’ Available Insurance Policies (such claims, the “Coverage Claims”), Buyer may request that Seller or its applicable Affiliate use commercially reasonable efforts to provide access, submit claims and seek coverage for such Coverage Claims under the Available Insurance Policies on behalf of Buyer, subject to the terms and conditions of such Available Insurance Policies; provided, however, that (i) Buyer and the Transferred Subsidiaries shall exclusively bear the amount of any “deductibles”, “retentions”, “loss adjustments” associated with claims under such Available Insurance Policies and shall otherwise be liable for all uninsured, uncollectible, unavailable or uncovered amounts of such claims, (ii) Buyer and the Transferred Subsidiaries shall reimburse Seller or its Affiliate for any costs and expenses (including increased premiums) incurred as a result of the Coverage Claims, (iii) with respect to Coverage Claims asserted by Buyer or the Transferred Subsidiaries under the Available Insurance Policies, Seller and its Affiliates shall control all of their insurance policies and programs, including the Available Insurance Policies, and Buyer and the Transferred Subsidiaries shall have the right but not the duty to associate with such claims, and (iv) Buyer and the Transferred Subsidiaries shall not assign any Available Insurance Policies or any rights or claims under the Available Insurance Policies. “Available Insurance Policies” means any (y) any occurrence-based insurance policies held by Seller or its Affiliates that cover the Transferred Assets, Assumed Liabilities, Transferred Subsidiaries or the Business; and (z) the Claims-Made Insurance Policies.

(c) Notwithstanding anything contained herein, but subject to Section 4.19(d), Seller and its Affiliates shall retain the exclusive right to control all of their insurance policies and programs, including the Available Insurance Policies, including the right to exhaust, settle, release, commute, buy back or otherwise resolve disputes with respect to any of its insurance policies and to amend, modify, terminate or waive any such insurance policies and programs or any rights thereunder and Buyer and the Transferred Subsidiaries shall cooperate with Seller and its Affiliates with respect to Coverage Claims and requests for benefits and sharing such information as is reasonably necessary in order to permit Seller and its Affiliates to manage and conduct its insurance matters as Seller or its Affiliates reasonably deem appropriate.

(d) Buyer shall have the right to elect to have Seller and its Affiliates, as applicable, use commercially reasonable efforts to procure, at Buyer’s sole cost and expense, endorsements for the Transferred Subsidiaries such that the Transferred Subsidiaries would be covered by any claims-made policies of Seller and its Affiliates in place as of the Closing for a period of up to three (3) years following the Closing. Any policies for which endorsements are procured pursuant to this Section 4.19(d) are referred to herein as the “Claims-Made Insurance Policies”.

Section 4.20 NP Plus Assets.

(a) If all of the conditions of Section 6.1, Section 6.2 and Section 6.3 have been satisfied or waived (to the extent permitted by applicable Law, and other than those conditions that are to be satisfied at the Closing), but approval by the California Department of Social Services for each California Home Care Organization license listed on Section 2.13(b) of the Seller Disclosure Letter has yet to be received at least three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing (the “CA Condition”), then (i) the Closing Date shall not be delayed as a result of the CA Condition not having been satisfied by the Closing Date and (ii) Buyer shall elect to either (A) close with respect to NP Plus pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, notwithstanding the CA Condition; (B) amend this Agreement to treat NP Plus as an Asset Seller (in addition to a Transferred Subsidiary) such that all or a portion of its Transferred Assets and Assumed Liabilities as directed by Buyer transfer to Buyer or its Affiliate designee(s) on the Closing Date (the “NP Plus Asset Sale”), and NP Plus would on the Deferred Closing Date transfer as a Transferred Subsidiary; or (C) in lieu of or in addition to (B) above, transfer the Deferred Business on the Deferred Closing Date in a Deferred Closing. If Buyer elects to proceed as set forth in (B) or (C) above, Seller shall reasonably cooperate with Buyer to accomplish the purposes described herein. “Deferred Closing” shall consist of (1) the transfer of the Transferred Equity Interests of NP Plus and (2) the transfer of the In-Scope Business Employees in California and Arizona with respect to NP Plus (collectively, the “Deferred Business”), which shall not occur on the Closing Date (notwithstanding the fact that the Closing with respect to the Business except for the Deferred Business shall proceed in accordance with the terms set forth in Section 1.1(a)), but shall instead occur on the third (3^rd) Business Day following the date on which the CA Condition has been satisfied (such closing, the “Deferred Closing” and the date of the Deferred Closing, the “Deferred Closing Date”).

(b) In the event of a Deferred Closing, Seller shall, on the Deferred Closing Date, deliver to Buyer the business transfer documents necessary to transfer the Deferred Business to Buyer, including any certificates representing the Transferred Equity Interests of NP Plus or other proper instrument of assignment. The transfer of the Deferred Business shall be deemed effective as of 12:01 a.m., local time in California on the Deferred Closing Date. Notwithstanding that legal title to the Deferred Business shall not be transferred to Buyer on the Closing Date in the event of a Deferred Closing, all provisions of this Agreement (including the calculation of the Closing Date Cash, the Closing Date Indebtedness, the Net Working Capital Adjustment Amount and the Transaction Expenses and the calculation, payment and timing of payment of the Final Purchase Price) shall apply as though such transfer occurred at the Closing (and for all Tax purposes, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, the Deferred Business shall be treated as if it was transferred on the Closing Date), except to the extent otherwise expressly provided in this Section 4.20 or elsewhere in this Agreement. From the Closing Date through the Deferred Closing Date, Seller shall observe Section 4.1 mutatis mutandis with respect to its operation of NP Plus, and shall not allow NP Plus to incur Indebtedness, and shall not make any distribution of Cash without the prior written consent of Buyer. Neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates makes any representation or warranty with respect to the Deferred Business, including with respect to any filings that may be required pursuant to Section 2.2(b) with respect to an NP Plus Asset Sale, other than as set forth in ARTICLE 2.

57

(c) On the Closing Date, if the CA Condition has not been satisfied and Buyer has elected a Deferred Closing, Buyer and Seller shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, enter into a reverse transitional services agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to each party pursuant to which Buyer will provide certain services to the Deferred Business and Seller such that Seller may operate the Deferred Business in the ordinary course of business, and Seller shall operate the Deferred Business in the Ordinary Course of Business until the Deferred Closing Date.

Section 4.21 Reimbursement Matters; Post-Closing Interim Billing Period Collections.

(a) From and after the Closing and until Buyer has obtained the necessary approvals, contracts or other authorizations from the applicable Governmental Authorities (“Post-Closing Interim Billing Period”), Seller, each Transferred Subsidiary and each Asset Seller hereby grants to Buyer, and Buyer hereby accepts, the right to use (i) the Permits set forth on Section 2.13(b) of the Seller Disclosure Letter and (ii) the Government Program agreements set forth on Section 2.14(c) of the Seller Disclosure Letter and other identifiers as needed for the purpose of billing and receiving payment for the services provided by the Business after the Closing, to the extent permitted by applicable Laws.

(b) The monies collected from any source by the Business for services rendered during the Post-Closing Period shall constitute “Interim Collections.” Seller agrees that all Interim Collections are Buyer’s sole property and will be held in trust by Seller or Asset Seller (as applicable) for the benefit of and promptly paid over to Buyer. Seller and each Asset Seller agrees that neither it nor any of its Representatives will change, cause to be changed, or permit to be changed the instructions to any Government Program regarding payments to existing bank accounts of any Transferred Subsidiary or with respect to the Business, Seller or any Asset Seller unless authorized in writing by Buyer (collectively, the “Government Receivables Accounts”). All Interim Collections received by Seller or an Asset Seller will be remitted to Buyer pursuant to the terms of Section 4.11 hereof.

(c) Seller shall keep active and maintain the Government Receivables Accounts until at least a period of sixty (60) days has passed in which no payments have been received in such accounts.

(d) Buyer is hereby authorized, at Buyer’s expense, to initiate legal or administrative proceedings to collect the Interim Collections, to enforce each the rights of Seller, any Transferred Subsidiary or Asset Seller as creditor in connection with the services furnished by the Business during the Interim Period, and to contest adjustment and denials by any Government Program.

(e) Seller and each Asset Seller shall cooperate in good faith to provide Buyer with all assistance reasonably necessary to facilitate billing of the Interim Collections during the Interim Period, including the execution of any power of attorney or other documents reasonably requested by Buyer; provided, that Buyer uses commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the necessary approvals, contracts or other authorizations from the applicable Governmental Authorities.

Any such amount that remains unspent as of the Calculation Time shall be treated as Restricted Cash. Following the Closing, Girling Texas shall remain or become, as applicable, solely responsible for compliance with applicable Law with respect to such unspent ARPA funds, and Seller and its Affiliates (excluding, following the Closing, the Transferred Subsidiaries) shall have no further Liability or responsibility with respect to performance of ARPA obligations or such unspent ARPA funds, which shall be treated as an Assumed Liability for all purposes hereunder.

(a) Seller shall have no Liability arising out of Section 8.2(a) and Buyer shall have no Liability arising out of or relating to Section 8.3(a) attributable to a single course of conduct or related set of facts, events or circumstances unless the aggregate amount of Losses incurred by the Buyer Indemnitees for such breach exceeds $10,000 (any such amount, the “De Minimis Amount”).

(b) Seller shall have no Liability arising out of Section 8.2(a) and Buyer shall have no Liability arising out of or relating to Section 8.3(a) unless, and only to the extent that, the aggregate amount of indemnifiable Losses incurred by the Buyer Indemnitees exceeds $1,050,000 (the “Deductible”); provided, however, that the limitations in this Section 8.4(b) shall not apply to claims involving Fraud.

(c) Seller shall have no Liability arising out of Section 8.2(a) and Buyer shall have no Liability arising out of or relating to Section 8.3(a), in each case, in excess of $1,050,000; provided, however, that the limitations in this Section 8.4(c) shall not apply to claims involving Fraud.

(e) The amount of any and all Losses indemnifiable pursuant to Section 8.2 or Section 8.3 shall be determined net of any amounts recovered by an Indemnified Party under insurance policies or other collateral sources (such as contractual indemnities, contributions or other similar payments of any Person that are contained outside of this Agreement) with respect to such Losses, in each case, net of costs of collection and any increase to premiums resulting from making any claim thereunder (to the extent such increase is reasonably demonstrated to have occurred as a result of the applicable Loss hereunder). In any case where an Indemnified Party recovers, under insurance policies or from other collateral sources, any amount in respect of a matter for which such Indemnified Party was indemnified pursuant to Section 8.2 or Section 8.3, as applicable, in each case to the extent not already taken into account pursuant to this Section 8.4(a), such Indemnified Party shall promptly pay over to the applicable Indemnifying Party the net amount so recovered, but not in excess of any amount previously so paid to or on behalf of such Indemnified Party in respect of such matter.

65

(f) No Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 8.2 or Section 8.3 for any such Loss to the extent that such Loss was taken into account in the Final Purchase Price as finally determined pursuant to Section 1.2(c).

(g) For purposes of determining any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty in this Agreement and for calculating the amount of Losses to which an Indemnified Party is entitled under this ARTICLE 8, the terms “material,” “materiality,” “material adverse effect,” “in all material respects,” “Material Adverse Effect” and similar terms are to be disregarded. The indemnification provisions of this ARTICLE 8 are to be enforceable regardless of whether any Person (including any party hereto) alleges or proves the sole, concurrent, contributory or comparative negligence of the Person seeking indemnification or the sole or concurrent strict liability imposed upon the Person seeking indemnification.

(h) Each Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate Losses for which such party is or may be entitled to indemnification hereunder (and the costs and expenses of such mitigation shall constitute Losses).

(i) With respect to the indemnification obligations set forth in Sections 8.2(a) and (b), in no event shall an Indemnifying Party have Liability to the Indemnified Party for any consequential, special, incidental, indirect, exemplary or punitive damages, except if and to the extent any such damages are recovered against an Indemnified Party pursuant to a Third-Party Claim.

Section 8.5 Notification of Claims; Third-Party Claims.

(a) A Person that may be entitled to be indemnified under this Agreement (the “Indemnified Party”) shall promptly notify the party or parties liable for such indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing of any claim in respect of which indemnity may be sought under this ARTICLE 8, describing in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances with respect to the subject matter of such claim; provided, however, that the failure to provide such notice shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this ARTICLE 8, except to the extent the Indemnifying Party is actually and materially prejudiced by such failure. Upon receipt of notice of a claim for indemnity from an Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 8.5 in respect of a pending or threatened claim or demand by a third party that the Indemnified Party has determined has given or could reasonably give rise to a right of indemnification under this Agreement (such claim or demand being a “Third-Party Claim” and including a pending or threatened claim or demand asserted by a third party against the Indemnified Party), the Indemnifying Party may, by notice to the Indemnified Party delivered within fifteen (15) Business Days of the receipt of notice of such Third-Party Claim, assume the defense and control of such Third-Party Claim, with its own counsel and at its own expense, and the Indemnified Party shall, at its sole cost and expense, cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in connection therewith; provided that the Indemnifying Party shall allow the Indemnified Party a reasonable opportunity to participate in the defense of such Third-Party Claim with its own counsel and at its own expense and keep the Indemnified Party apprised of all material developments, including settlement offers,

66

with respect to the Third-Party Claim; and further provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume the defense of any Third-Party Claim (i) if such Third-Party Claim seeks an injunction or other equitable remedy in respect of the Indemnified Party or its business, (ii) if such Third-Party Claim poses a conflict of interest between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party in the reasonable opinion of outside counsel for the Indemnified Party, (iii) if such Third-Party Claim relates to, or arises in connection with, any criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation in respect of the business of the Indemnified Party or its Affiliates, and (iv) if with respect to any Buyer Indemnitee, the assumption of the defense by the Indemnifying Party would reasonably be expected to cause coverage under the R&W Insurance Policy to be materially and adversely affected.

(b) Subject to the conditions in the previous paragraph, if the Indemnifying Party validly elects to conduct the defense and settlement of a Third-Party Claim, then the Indemnified Party shall have the right to pay or settle such Third-Party Claim; provided that in such event, the Indemnified Party shall waive any right to indemnity by the Indemnifying Party for all Losses related to such Third-Party Claim unless the Indemnifying Party shall have consented to such payment or settlement. If the Indemnifying Party does not notify the Indemnified Party within fifteen (15) Business Days after the receipt of the Indemnified Party’s notice of a claim hereunder that it elects to undertake the defense thereof, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to contest, settle or compromise the claim but shall not thereby waive any right to indemnity therefor pursuant to this Agreement. The Indemnifying Party shall not, except with the consent of the Indemnified Party (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), enter into any settlement that does not include as a term thereof the giving by the Person(s) asserting such claim to all Indemnified Parties of a release from all Liability with respect to such claim or consent to entry of any judgment.

(c) The parties hereto shall cooperate (including by entering into a mutually agreeable joint defense agreement, which shall provide for, among other things, the treatment of privileged communications) in the defense or prosecution of any Third-Party Claim in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, and each of Buyer and Seller (or a duly authorized representative of such party) shall (and shall cause their respective Affiliates to) furnish such records, information, access to relevant personnel and testimony, and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals, as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith.

(d) In the event any Indemnifying Party receives notice of a claim for indemnity from an Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 8.5 that does not involve a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall notify the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days following its receipt of such notice whether the Indemnifying Party disputes its Liability to the Indemnified Party under this ARTICLE 8. The Indemnified Party shall reasonably cooperate with and assist the Indemnifying Party in determining the validity of any such claim for indemnity by the Indemnified Party.

67

Section 8.6 Exclusive Remedy. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements (other than the Transitional Services Agreement, the Restrictive Covenant Agreement, and the Section 1.1 Agreement) and except (x) with respect to Fraud and the matters covered by Section 1.2 and (y) in the case where a party seeks to obtain specific performance pursuant to Section 10.9, Seller and Buyer hereby agree that following the Closing, the sole and exclusive remedy of a party for any breach or inaccuracy of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements (other than the Restrictive Covenant Agreement, the Section 1.1 Agreement and the Transitional Services Agreement) or the officers certificates provided pursuant to this Agreement shall be the applicable indemnification rights set forth in this ARTICLE 8.

Section 10.4 Governing Law, etc.

(a) This Agreement shall be governed in all respects, including as to validity, interpretation and effect, by the Laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to its principles or rules of conflict of laws, to the extent such principles or rules are not mandatorily applicable by statute and would permit or require the application of the Laws of another jurisdiction. Each of the parties hereto (i) submits to the jurisdiction of the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware and the federal court sitting in the State of Delaware in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, and (ii) (A) agrees to bring all claims under any theory of liability in respect of such action or proceeding exclusively in any such court and (B) agrees not to bring any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any other court. Each of the parties hereto waives any defense of inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any action or proceeding so brought and waives any bond, surety or other security that might be required of any other party with respect thereto. Each party hereto agrees that service of summons and complaint or any other process that might be served in any action or proceeding may be made on such party by sending or delivering a copy of the process to the party to be served at the address of the party and in the manner provided for the giving of notices in Section 10.1. Nothing in this Section 10.4, however, shall affect the right of any party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by Law. Each party hereto agrees that a final, non-appealable judgment in any action or proceeding so brought shall be conclusive and may be enforced by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law.

(b) Each party to this Agreement hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any right to trial by jury of any claim, demand, action or cause of action (i) arising under this Agreement or (ii) in any way connected with or related or incidental to the dealings of the parties hereto in respect of this Agreement or any of the transactions related hereto, in each case whether now existing or hereafter arising, and whether in contract, tort, equity or otherwise. Each party to this Agreement hereby agrees and consents that any such claim, demand, action or cause of action shall be decided by court trial without a jury and that the parties to this Agreement may file an original counterpart of a copy of this Agreement with any court as written evidence of the consent of the parties hereto to the waiver of their right to trial by jury.

Section 10.5 Successors and Assigns. No party may assign any of its rights or delegate any of its obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other party, except that Buyer may collaterally assign its rights under this Agreement to any financial institution providing financing in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, to an Affiliate of Buyer, or to a successor in interest to Buyer (provided, however, that no such assignment or delegation shall (a) be permitted if it would prevent, materially impair or materially delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or (b) relieve the Buyer of any of its obligations hereunder). Any purported assignment of rights or delegation of obligations in violation of this Section 10.5 will be void. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements will apply to, be binding in all respects upon, and inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives, successors, and permitted assigns of the parties.

93

Section 10.6 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements (when executed and delivered) and the Confidentiality Agreement, including all exhibits and schedules incorporated herein or therein, constitute the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the matters covered hereby and thereby and supersede all prior agreements, understandings and representations, both written and oral, between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof. In the event of any inconsistency between the statements in the body of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, the statements in this Agreement shall control.

Section 10.7 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, all other provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon any such determination, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

Section 10.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by facsimile or scanned pages shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart to this Agreement.

Section 10.9 Specific Performance. Each party acknowledges and agrees that the other party would be damaged irreparably in the event that any provision of this Agreement is not performed in accordance with its specific terms or otherwise breached (including a party’s obligation to close the transactions contemplated hereby on the Closing Date) so that, in addition to any other remedy that a party may have under law or equity, a party shall be entitled to injunctive relief to prevent breaches of the provisions of this Agreement and to enforce specifically this Agreement and the terms and provisions hereof. Each party acknowledges and agrees that monetary damages would be inadequate in the event of any such failure to perform or breach and waives any equitable defense to the granting of specific performance or other injunctive relief available to such party. Any party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction.

This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each party and its successors and permitted assigns and, except for Section 4.6 and ARTICLE 8 (each of which shall be for the benefit of the Persons set forth therein, and each such Person shall be an intended third-party beneficiary thereof and shall have the rights, benefits and remedies provided for therein), nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person any rights, benefits or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.

Section 10.11 Legal Representation of the Transferred Subsidiaries and Seller and Its Other Affiliates. Buyer, on its own behalf and on behalf of its Affiliates (including, after the Closing, Transferred Subsidiaries) and its and its Affiliates’ directors, shareholders, members, partners, officers, employees and Affiliates, hereby agrees that, in the event that a dispute arises after the Closing arising from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement between Buyer or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and Seller or any of its Affiliates (excluding, after the Closing, the Transferred Subsidiaries) or its or its Affiliates’ respective directors, shareholders, members, partners, officers or employees (any of the foregoing, a “Sell-Side Party”), on the other hand, Debevoise & Plimpton LLP (“Debevoise”) may represent the Sell-Side Party in such dispute even though the interests of the Sell-Side Party may be directly adverse to Buyer or the Transferred Subsidiaries, and even though Debevoise may have represented the Transferred Subsidiaries in a matter substantially related to such dispute, or may be handling ongoing matters for the Transferred Subsidiaries. Buyer further agrees that, as to all communications among Debevoise, on the one hand, and either the Transferred Subsidiaries or the Sell-Side Parties, on the other hand, that relate in any way to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the attorney-client privilege and the expectation of client confidence belongs to Seller (on behalf of the Sell-Side Parties) and may be controlled by Seller and shall not pass to or be claimed by Buyer, or the Transferred Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a dispute arises between Buyer or the Transferred Subsidiaries and a third party other than a Sell-Side Party after the Closing, the Transferred Subsidiaries may assert the attorney-client privilege to prevent disclosure of confidential communications by Debevoise to such third party; provided, however, that the Transferred Subsidiaries may not waive such privilege without the prior written consent of Seller.

Section 10.12 Exhibits and Schedules. The Seller Disclosure Letter and all exhibits or other documents expressly incorporated into this Agreement, are hereby incorporated into this Agreement and are hereby made a part hereof as if set out in full in this Agreement. Without limiting the terms of the Seller Disclosure Letter, any fact or item disclosed in a particular section or subsection of the Seller Disclosure Letter shall be deemed to have been disclosed with respect to every other section or subsection thereof if the relevance of such disclosure to such other section or subsection is reasonably apparent. The specification of any dollar amount in the representations or warranties contained in this Agreement or the inclusion of any specific item in the Seller Disclosure Letter is not intended to imply that such amounts, or higher or lower amounts or the items so included or other items, are or are not material, and no party shall use the fact of the setting of such amounts or the inclusion of any such item in any dispute or controversy as to whether any obligation, items or matter not described herein or included in the Seller Disclosure Letter is or is not material for purposes of this Agreement. The Seller Disclosure Letter and the information and statements contained therein are not intended to constitute, and shall not be construed as constituting, representations, warranties or covenants of Seller or its Affiliates except as and to the extent expressly provided in this Agreement.

Section 10.13 Bulk Sales Laws. Buyer and Seller each hereby waive compliance by Seller or any of its Affiliates with the provisions of the “bulk sales”, “bulk transfer” or similar Laws of any state or any jurisdiction outside the United States that may otherwise be applicable with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 10.14 Release. Effective as of the Closing, (a) Seller, on behalf of itself, its Affiliates (other than the Transferred Subsidiaries) and each of their respective successors and assigns, hereby irrevocably releases and forever discharges any and all rights, claims and causes of action they have had, now have or might now have against each of the Transferred Subsidiaries and their respective current and former employees, officers, directors, equityholders, partners,
