NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The Company is a leading home and security products company with a portfolio of leading branded products used for residential home repair, remodeling, new construction, security applications and storage.

The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2013, the related condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the six-month and three-month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 and the related condensed consolidated statements of cash flows and equity for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the financial statements have been included. Interim results may not be indicative of results for a full year.

The condensed consolidated financial statements and notes are presented pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and do not contain certain information included in our audited consolidated financial statements and notes. The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

2. Recently Issued Accounting Standards

Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists

In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2013-11, “Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists.” ASU 2013-11 provides explicit guidance on presentation in financial statements. The amendment is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013 (calendar year 2014 for Home & Security). We believe that adoption of this standard will not have a material impact on our financial statements.

FORTUNE BRANDS HOME & SECURITY, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

2. Recently Issued Accounting Standards (Continued)

Parent’s Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity

In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-05, “Parent’s Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity.” ASU 2013-05 clarifies the accounting for the release of the cumulative translation adjustment into net income when a parent either sells a part or all of its investment in a foreign entity or no longer holds a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets that is a business within a foreign entity. The ASU also clarifies the treatment of business combinations achieved in stages involving a foreign entity. The amendment is effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013 (calendar year 2014 for Home & Security). We believe that adoption of this standard will not have a material impact on our financial statements.

4. Acquisitions

In June 2013, our Kitchen & Bath Cabinetry business acquired WoodCrafters Home Products Holding, LLC (“WoodCrafters”), a manufacturer of bathroom vanities and tops for a purchase price of approximately $300 million, subject to certain post-closing adjustments. We paid the purchase price using a combination of cash on hand and borrowings under our existing credit facilities. This acquisition will greatly expand our offerings of bathroom cabinetry products.

4. Acquisitions (Continued)

The following table summarizes a preliminary allocation of the purchase price to estimated fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the date of the acquisition. This allocation is expected to change after asset and liability valuations are finalized.

Net assets acquired	$	300.0

All of the acquired goodwill is tax deductible. The useful lives of the identifiable intangible assets are expected to range from 3 to 20 years.

The following unaudited pro forma summary presents consolidated financial information as if WoodCrafters had been acquired on January 1, 2012. The unaudited pro forma financial information is based on historical results of operations and financial position of the Company and WoodCrafters. The pro forma results include adjustments for the impact of a preliminary allocation of the purchase price and interest expense associated with debt that would have been incurred in connection with the acquisition. The unaudited pro forma financial information does not necessarily represent the results that would have occurred had the acquisition occurred on January 1, 2012. In addition, the unaudited pro forma information should not be deemed to be indicative of future results.

^(a)

Net of accumulated impairment losses of $541.4 million ($451.3 million in the Advanced Material Windows & Door Systems segment and $90.1 million in the Security & Storage segment).

Amortizable identifiable intangible assets, principally tradenames and customer relationships, are subject to amortization over their estimated useful life, 5 to 30 years, based on the assessment of a number of factors that may impact useful life. These factors include historical and tradename performance with respect to consumer name recognition, geographic market presence, market share, plans for ongoing tradename support and promotion and other relevant factors. The gross carrying value increase of $89.0 million was principally due to a preliminary allocation of identifiable intangible assets associated with the acquisition of WoodCrafters.

The gross carrying value and accumulated amortization by class of intangible assets as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 were as follows:


	As of June 30, 2013							As of December 31, 2012

FORTUNE BRANDS HOME & SECURITY, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

5. Goodwill and Other Identifiable Intangible Assets (Continued)

In December 2012, our Security & Storage business acquired a company for approximately $20 million in cash. Purchase price adjustments and the allocation of the purchase price were finalized in the first quarter of 2013. Our December 31, 2012 balance sheet was retrospectively adjusted to reflect the purchase price adjustments in accordance with ASC requirements for Business Combinations, in particular a reduction in goodwill of $5.6 million and an increase in definite-lived intangible assets of $5.9 million. The acquisition was not material for the purposes of supplemental disclosure and does not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In the first half of 2013, no events or circumstances occurred that would have required us to perform interim impairment tests of goodwill or indefinite-lived intangible assets. Any future reduction in the estimated fair value of the indefinite-lived tradenames that were impaired in the fourth quarter of 2012 would result in an impairment charge. The Company cannot predict the occurrence of certain events that might adversely affect the carrying value of goodwill and other intangible assets. Such events may include, but are not limited to, the impact of the economic environment, a material negative change in relationships with significant customers, and strategic decisions made in response to economic and competitive conditions. While our cash flow projections used to assess impairment of our goodwill and other intangible assets are influenced by a number of variables, they are most significantly influenced by our projection for the recovery of the U.S. home products markets in the next 3 to 5 years. We evaluate our projection of the U.S. home products market periodically and in connection with our annual operating plans finalized in the fourth quarter of each year. The U.S. home products market is highly dependent on U.S. new home construction. Our projection for the U.S. home products markets is inherently subject to a number of uncertain factors, such as employment, home prices, credit availability, and the rate of home foreclosures. Significant changes in these and other factors could cause us to change our cash flow projections in future periods which could trigger impairment of goodwill or indefinite-lived intangible assets in the period in which such changes occur.

6. External Debt and Financing Arrangements

We have a $650 million committed revolving credit facility, as well as a $350 million term loan, both of which expire in July 2018. In July 2013, these facilities were renewed under essentially the same terms and conditions, extending the maturity date from October 2016 to July 2018. On June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, our outstanding borrowing under the term loan was $320.0 million. On June 30, 2013 our outstanding borrowing under the revolving credit facility was $60.0 million. There was no outstanding balance as of December 31, 2012. The interest rates under these facilities are variable based on LIBOR at the time of the borrowing and the Company’s leverage as measured by a debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio (as defined in the agreements governing the facilities). Based upon the Company’s debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio, the Company’s borrowing rate could range from LIBOR + 1.0% to LIBOR + 2.0%. As of June 30, 2013, we were in compliance with all covenants under these facilities.

At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, there were $6.1 million and $5.5 million of external short-term borrowings outstanding, respectively, comprised of notes payable to banks that are used for general corporate purposes. These amounts pertained to uncommitted bank lines of credit in China and India, which provide for unsecured borrowings for working capital of up to $22.7 million, as of both June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012. The weighted-average interest rates on these borrowings were 12.4% and 12.2% in the six-month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The weighted-average interest rates on these borrowings were 12.6% and 13.1% in the three-month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

7. Financial Instruments

We do not enter into derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes. We principally use financial instruments to reduce the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and commodities used as raw materials in our products. The principal derivative financial instruments we enter into on a routine basis are foreign exchange contracts.

Our primary foreign currency hedge contracts pertain to the Canadian dollar, the Chinese yuan, the Mexican peso and the Euro. The gross U.S. dollar equivalent notional amount of all of our foreign currency derivative hedges outstanding at June 30, 2013 was $160.2 million, representing a net settlement receivable of $3.4 million. Based on foreign exchange rates as of June 30, 2013, we estimate that $1.5 million of pre-tax foreign currency derivative net gains included in other comprehensive income as of June 30, 2013 will be reclassified to earnings within the next twelve months.

In the six and three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, the ineffective portion of cash flow hedges recognized in other income, net, was insignificant.

8. Fair Value Measurements

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 were as follows:


	Fair Value
(In millions)	June 30, 2013		December 31, 2012
Assets
Derivative financial instruments (level 2)	$	4.0	$	1.2
Deferred compensation program assets (level 1)		3.2		3.6

Total assets	$	7.2	$	4.8
Liabilities
Derivative financial instruments (level 2)	$	1.1	$	0.9

The principal derivative financial instruments we enter into on a routine basis are foreign exchange contracts. Derivative financial instruments are recorded at fair value.

ASC requirements for Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures establish a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels. Level 1 inputs, the highest priority, are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs reflect inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are either observable directly or through corroboration with observable market data. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs, due to little or no market activity for the asset or liability, such as internally-developed valuation models. We do not have any assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis that are Level 3.

The carrying value of the Company’s long-term debt as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 of $380.0 million and $320.0 million, respectively, approximated its fair value. The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt was determined primarily by using broker quotes, which are Level 2 inputs.

9. Defined Benefit Plans

The components of net periodic benefit cost for pension and postretirement benefits for the six and three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 were as follows:


	Six Months Ended June 30,
	Pension Benefits						Postretirement Benefits
(In millions)	2013			2012			2013			2012
Service cost	$	6.3		$	7.5		$	0.2		$	0.2

Service cost	$	3.1		$	3.7		$	0.1		$	0.1
Interest cost		7.5			7.7			0.4			1.1
Expected return on plan assets		(10.5	)		(9.3	)		—			—
Amortization of prior service costs (credits)		0.1			0.1			(8.8	)		0.1
Recognition of actuarial losses		0.1			—			0.7			—

Net periodic benefit cost	$	0.3		$	2.2		$	(7.6	)	$	1.3

In the fourth quarter of 2012 and first half of 2013, we amended certain postretirement benefit plans to reduce health benefits for certain current and retired employees. The impact of these changes was a reduction in accrued retiree benefit plans of $29.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2012 and $35.9 million in the first half of 2013, and we recognized actuarial losses of $5.3 million in the first half of 2013 due to a decrease in the discount rate and a resulting lower threshold for loss recognition because of the reduced postretirement obligation. Liability reductions from these plan amendments are recorded as amortization of prior service credits in net income in accordance with accounting requirements. In addition, in the first quarter of 2013, we communicated to certain employees our decision to freeze an hourly pension plan by December 31, 2016. As a result, we remeasured our pension liability, updating our pension measurement assumptions, and recorded a $19.9 million reduction in the liability. The curtailment charge associated with this pension freeze was insignificant. See Note 15, “Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income,” for information on the impact on accumulated other comprehensive income.

10. Income Taxes

The effective income tax rates for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 were 33.9% and 31.4%, respectively. The effective income tax rate in 2013 was unfavorably impacted by an investment write-off for which the Company could not record an income tax benefit and favorably impacted by the tax benefits associated with the extension of the research and development credit under The American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, including the full-year credit attributable to 2012. The effective income tax rate in 2012 was favorably impacted by a discrete foreign income tax benefit recorded in the second quarter.

The effective income tax rates for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 were 35.0% and 31.1%, respectively. The effective income tax rate in 2013 was unfavorably impacted by an investment write-off for which the Company could not record an income tax benefit. The effective income tax rate in 2012 was favorably impacted by a discrete foreign income tax benefit recorded in the second quarter.

It is reasonably possible that, within the next 12 months, total unrecognized tax benefits may decrease in the range of $3 million to $4 million, primarily as a result of the conclusion of pending U.S. federal, state and foreign income tax proceedings.

11. Product Warranties

We generally record warranty expense at the time of sale. We offer our customers various warranty terms based on the type of product that is sold. Warranty expense is determined based on historic claim experience and the nature of the product category. The following table summarizes activity related to our product warranty liability for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

16. Contingencies

Litigation

We are defendants in lawsuits associated with the normal conduct of our businesses and operations. It is not possible to predict the outcome of the pending actions, and, as with any litigation, it is possible that these actions could be decided unfavorably to the Company. The Company believes that there are meritorious defenses to these actions and that these actions will not have a material adverse effect upon our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition, and where appropriate, these actions are being vigorously contested.

16. Contingencies (Continued)

Environmental

Compliance with federal, state and local laws regulating the discharge of materials into the environment, or otherwise relating to the protection of the environment, did not have a material effect on capital expenditures, earnings or the competitive position of Home & Security during the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012. We are involved in remediation activities to clean up hazardous wastes as required by federal and state laws. Liabilities for remediation costs of each site are based on our best estimate of undiscounted future costs, excluding possible insurance recoveries or recoveries from other third parties. Uncertainties about the status of laws, regulations, technology and information related to individual sites make it difficult to develop estimates of environmental remediation exposures.

17. Subsequent Event

In July 2013, we renewed our $650 million committed revolving credit facility and $350 million term loan under essentially the same terms and conditions, extending the maturity date from October 2016 to July 2018. As a result, in July 2013, we increased our borrowings under the term loan by $30 million from $320 million at June 30, 2013 to $350 million, reducing our borrowings under the revolving credit facility.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto, which are included in this report, as well as our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012, which are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

This discussion contains forward-looking statements that are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), regarding business strategies, market potential, future financial performance and other matters. Statements preceded by, followed by or that otherwise include the words “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “projects,” “estimates,” “plans” and similar expressions or future or conditional verbs such as “will,” “should,” “would,” “may” and “could” are generally forward-looking in nature and not historical facts. The forward-looking statements are not historical facts, but rather are based on expectations, estimates, assumptions and projections about our industry, business and future financial results, based on information available at the time this report is filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or with respect to any document incorporated by reference, available as of the time such document was prepared. Our actual results could differ materially from the results contemplated by these forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including but not limited to: (i) our reliance on the North American home improvement, repair and new home construction activity levels, (ii) the North American and larger global economies, (iii) risk associated with entering into potential strategic acquisitions and integrating and operating acquired business, (iv) our ability to remain innovative and protect our intellectual property, (v) our reliance on key customers and suppliers, (vi) the cost and availability associated with our supply chains and the availability of raw materials, (vii) risk of increases in our postretirement benefit-related costs and funding requirements and (viii) changes in tax, environmental and federal and state laws and industry regulatory standards. These and other factors are discussed in Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, which is hereby incorporated herein by reference. We undertake no obligation to, and expressly disclaim any such obligation to, update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events, new information or changes to future results over time or otherwise, except as required by law.

OVERVIEW

References to “Home & Security,” “the Company,” “we,” “our” and “us” refer to Fortune Brands Home & Security, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries as a whole, unless the context otherwise requires. The Company is a leader in home and security products with companies focused on the design, manufacture and sale of market leading branded products in the following categories: kitchen and bath cabinetry, plumbing and accessories, advanced material windows products and entry door systems and security and storage products.

OVERVIEW (Continued)

With a foundation of market-leading brands across a diversified mix of channels, and lean and flexible supply chains, as well as a tradition of strong innovation and customer service, we are focused on outperforming our markets in both growth and returns and driving increased shareholder value. We believe the Company’s track record reflects the long-term attractiveness and potential of our categories and our leading brands. As consumer demand and the housing market improve from current levels, we expect the benefits of operating leverage and strategic spending will help us to substantially improve profitability.

We believe our most attractive opportunities are to invest in profitable organic growth initiatives. In addition, we may invest in add-on acquisitions that leverage our existing brands and infrastructure, and we may undertake share repurchases under our share repurchase program as explained in further detail under “Liquidity and Capital Resources” below. In the second quarter of 2013, our Board of Directors declared our first dividend since becoming a publicly-traded company in October 2011, declaring a regular quarterly dividend of $0.10 per share of common stock.

In June 2013, our Kitchen & Bath Cabinetry business acquired WoodCrafters Home Products Holding, LLC, a manufacturer of bathroom vanities and tops, for a purchase price of approximately $300 million, subject to certain post-closing adjustments. We paid the purchase price using a combination of cash on hand and borrowings under our existing credit facilities. The financial results of WoodCrafters will be included in the Company’s results of operations and cash flows beginning in the third quarter of 2013. This acquisition will greatly expand our offering of bathroom cabinetry products.

We expect that the recovery in the U.S. market for our home products from the current low levels may be gradual and uneven. The recovery will largely depend on consumer confidence, employment, home prices and credit availability. Over the long term, we believe that the U.S. home products market will benefit from favorable population and immigration trends, which will drive demand for new housing units, and from aging existing housing stock that will continue to need to be repaired and remodeled.

We remain focused on our initiatives designed to outperform our markets. We believe our strong brand positions across a diversified mix of channels, consumer-focused innovation, flexible and efficient supply chains, and excellent customer service position our business to perform well in the marketplace. While our markets have started to improve from historic lows, our near term results may be uneven and challenging as consumers remain cautious, particularly for big-ticket repair and remodel purchases such as cabinets and windows. In addition, we may be impacted by fluctuations in raw material and transportation costs, a consumer preference for lower-priced valued-oriented products may persist, and a heavy promotional environment for big-ticket discretionary purchases such as kitchen cabinets may continue through 2013. We strive to offset the potential unfavorable impact of these items with productivity initiatives and price increases.

The following discussion of consolidated results of operations and segment results refers to the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2012. Consolidated results of operations should be read in conjunction with segment results of operations.

Net Sales

Net sales increased $196.3 million, or 11%. The increase was due to higher sales volume, primarily from improved U.S. market conditions for home products, particularly for new construction. These increases were partially offset by lower sales volume of Security & Storage products due to higher customer promotional activity in 2012 for storage products. Net sales also benefited from price increases that helped mitigate raw material and transportation cost increases.

Cost of products sold

Cost of products sold increased $83.3 million, or 7%, due to higher sales volume, partially offset by the benefit of productivity improvements and $13.6 million of amortization of prior service credits related to defined benefit plan amendments that reduced health benefits for certain current and retired employees.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $44.4 million, or 10%, due to higher volume-related expenses and planned increases in strategic spending to support growth initiatives that included approximately $12 million of higher advertising spending. Administrative expenses also increased approximately $4 million due to higher acquisition-related expenses associated with the acquisition of WoodCrafters and a non-recurring benefit in 2012 from the reduction of a contingent consideration liability.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

Amortization of intangible assets

Amortization of intangible assets decreased $1.1 million due to an identifiable intangible asset that was fully amortized in the second quarter of 2012.

Restructuring charges

Restructuring charges of $1.2 million and $1.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, related to previously announced supply chain initiatives.

Operating income

Operating income increased $69.5 million to $163.1 million, primarily due to higher sales volume from our growth initiatives and improving U.S. home products market conditions.

Interest expense

Interest expense decreased $1.2 million due to lower average external borrowings.

Other expense, net

Other expense, net, was $5.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to $0.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2012. The change of $5.7 million was primarily due a $6.2 million impairment charge pertaining to a cost method investment.

Income taxes

The effective income tax rates for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 were 33.9% and 31.4%, respectively. The effective income tax rate in 2013 was unfavorably impacted by an impairment charge of a cost method investment for which the Company could not presently record an income tax benefit and favorably impacted by the tax benefits associated with the extension of the research and development credit under The American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, including the full-year credit attributable to 2012. The effective income tax rate in 2012 was favorably impacted by a discrete foreign income tax benefit recorded in the second quarter.

Noncontrolling interests

Noncontrolling interest expense was $0.4 million and $0.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Net income attributable to Home & Security

Net income attributable to Home & Security was $101.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to $60.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2012. The increase of $41.0 million was primarily due to higher operating income, partially offset by an increase in other expense, net, and the impact of the higher effective income tax rate.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

Results By Segment

Kitchen & Bath Cabinetry

Net sales increased $80.3 million, or 12%, due to higher sales volume, primarily from improved U.S. market conditions, particularly for new construction. Net sales also benefited from price increases that helped mitigate raw material and transportation cost increases.

Operating income increased $37.1 million to $49.7 million due to higher sales volume. Operating income also benefited from price increases and productivity improvements, including cost savings from previously announced restructuring actions. Operating income was unfavorably impacted by increased costs for raw materials (wood-related) and higher incentive compensation expense.

Plumbing & Accessories

Net sales increased $105.5 million, or 20%, due to higher sales volume in the U.S. driven primarily by higher new construction housing starts and improving market conditions, as well as approximately $19 million of higher international sales, primarily in China. Net sales also benefited from price increases that helped mitigate raw material cost increases.

Operating income increased $31.3 million, or 40%, due to higher sales volume. The impact of productivity improvements was offset by planned strategic investments to support long-term growth initiatives that included approximately $12 million of higher spending on advertising.

Advanced Material Windows & Door Systems

Net sales increased $27.7 million, or 10%, due to higher sales volume driven primarily by improved conditions in the U.S. new home construction market. Net sales of door systems grew $22.5 million, or 15%, while net sales of window products increased $5.2 million, or 4%.

Operating income increased $6.1 million in the first half of 2013 from an operating loss of $4.8 million in the same period of 2012. The improvement was due to the benefit of higher sales, partially offset by the absence in 2013 of $2.0 million of income attributable to a reduction of a contingent consideration liability related to an acquisition.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

Security & Storage

Net sales decreased $17.2 million, or 6%. Net sales of storage products were down $19.3 million, or 22%, due to increased retailer-driven promotions in the first quarter of 2012 that did not recur in 2013, while net sales of security products increased $2.1 million, or 1%, due to higher retail and international sales.

Operating income increased $5.2 million, or 16%. Operating income increased approximately $8 million due to lower employee benefit costs as a result of reductions in certain postretirement benefits in our storage product line, partially offset by an environmental charge and higher planned spending on security growth initiatives. Operating income was also unfavorably impacted by the adverse impact of lower storage product sales volume.

Corporate

Corporate expenses increased $10.2 million due to $5.4 million of actuarial losses recognized in the first six months of 2013 related to defined benefit plan amendments that required a remeasurement of certain postretirement benefit liabilities, transaction expenses associated with the acquisition of WoodCrafters, and higher compensation-related costs.

In future periods the Company may record in the Corporate segment material expense or income associated with actuarial gains and losses arising from periodic remeasurement of our liabilities for defined benefit plans. At a minimum the Company will remeasure its defined benefit plan liabilities in the fourth quarter of each year. Remeasurements due to plan amendments and settlements may also occur in interim periods during the year. Remeasurement of these liabilities attributable to updating our liability discount rates and expected return on assets may, in particular, result in material income or expense recognition.

The following discussion of consolidated results of operations and segment results refers to the three months ended June 30, 2013 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2012. Consolidated results of operations should be read in conjunction with segment results of operations.

Net Sales

Net sales increased $105.1 million, or 11%. The increase was due to higher sales volume, primarily from improved U.S. market conditions for home products, particularly for new construction. Net sales for Security & Storage products were flat. Net sales also benefited from price increases that helped mitigate raw material and transportation cost increases.

Cost of products sold

Cost of products sold increased $45.5 million, or 7%, due to higher sales volume, partially offset by the benefit of productivity improvements and $7.3 million of amortization of prior service credits related to defined benefit plan amendments that reduced health benefits for certain current and retired employees.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $25.4 million, or 10%, due to higher volume-related expenses and planned increases in strategic spending to support growth initiatives that included approximately $8 million of higher advertising spending. Administrative expenses also increased due to higher acquisition-related expenses associated with the acquisition of WoodCrafters

Amortization of intangible assets

Amortization of intangible assets decreased $0.3 million, primarily due to foreign currency adjustments.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

Restructuring charges

Restructuring charges of $0.3 million in the three months ended June 30, 2013 related to previously announced supply chain initiatives.

Operating income

Operating income increased $34.2 million to $106.5 million, primarily due to higher sales volume from our growth initiatives and improving U.S. home products market conditions.

Interest expense

Interest expense decreased $0.4 million due to lower average external borrowings and interest rates.

Other expense, net

Other expense, net, was $6.1 million in the three months ended June 30, 2013, compared to $0.7 million in the three months ended June 30, 2012. The change of $5.4 million was primarily due to a $6.2 million impairment charge pertaining to a cost method investment.

Income taxes

The effective income tax rates for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 were 35.0% and 31.1%, respectively. The effective income tax rate in 2013 was unfavorably impacted by an impairment charge of a cost method investment for which the Company could not presently record an income tax benefit. The effective income tax rate in 2012 was favorably impacted by a discrete foreign income tax benefit recorded in the second quarter.

Noncontrolling interests

Noncontrolling interest expense was $0.2 million and $0.1 million in the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Net income attributable to Home & Security

Net income attributable to Home & Security was $64.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 2013 compared to $47.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2012. The increase of $16.2 million was primarily due to higher operating income, partially offset by an increase in other expense, net, and the impact of higher effective income tax rate.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

Results By Segment

Kitchen & Bath Cabinetry

Net sales increased $46.5 million, or 13%, due to higher sales volume, primarily due to improved U.S. market conditions, particularly for new construction. Net sales also benefited from price increases that helped mitigate raw material and transportation cost increases.

Operating income increased $17.5 million, or 98%, due to higher sales volume. Operating income also benefited from price increases and productivity improvements, including cost savings from previously announced restructuring actions. Operating income was unfavorably impacted by higher incentive compensation expense and increased costs for raw materials (wood-related).

Plumbing & Accessories

Net sales increased $41.1 million, or 15%, due to higher sales volume in the U.S. driven primarily by higher new construction housing starts and improving market conditions, as well as approximately $12 million of higher international sales, primarily in China. Net sales also benefited from price increases that helped mitigate raw material cost increases.

Operating income increased $12.5 million, or 29%, due to higher sales volume. The impact of productivity improvements was offset by planned strategic investments to support long-term growth initiatives that included approximately $7 million of higher spending on advertising.

Advanced Material Windows & Door Systems

Net sales increased $16.9 million, or 11%, due to higher sales volume driven primarily by improved conditions in the U.S. new home construction market. Net sales of door systems grew $12.6 million, or 14%, while net sales of window products increased $4.3 million, or 6%.

Operating income increased $6.1 million to $9.8 million due to higher sales volume.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

Security & Storage

Net sales increased $0.6 million. Net sales of security products increased $3.7 million, or 4%, due to higher retail and global safety sales volume, while net sales of storage products were down $3.1 million, or 7%, due to the exit from certain low margin industrial products and costs associated with promotion of new products.

Operating income increased $4.7 million, or 22%. Approximately half of the operating income growth was attributable to higher sales of security products. The other half of the operating income growth was due to lower employee benefit costs as a result of reductions in certain postretirement benefits in our storage product line, partially offset by higher planned spending on security growth initiatives.

Corporate

Corporate expenses increased $6.6 million, primarily due to transaction expenses associated with the acquisition of WoodCrafters and higher compensation-related costs.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our primary liquidity needs are to support working capital requirements, fund capital expenditures and service indebtedness. Other potential uses of liquidity include paying dividends to stockholders, repurchasing shares of our common stock and financing acquisitions. Our principal sources of liquidity have been cash on hand, cash flows from operating activities, and availability under our credit agreements. Our operating income is generated by our subsidiaries. There are no restrictions on the ability of our subsidiaries to pay dividends or make other distributions to Home & Security.

On April 30, 2013 and July 30, 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a regular quarterly dividend of $0.10 per share of common stock on all of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock, which was payable on June 19, 2013 and will be payable on September 18, 2013, respectively, to shareholders of record on May 31, 2013 and August 29, 2013.

On July 25, 2012, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program that authorizes the Company to repurchase up to $150,000,000 of shares of our outstanding common stock over the three years ending July 25, 2015. In the first half of 2013, we repurchased 399,500 shares of our outstanding common stock under the share repurchase program for $13.1 million. As of June 30, 2013, the Company’s total remaining share repurchase authorization was $127,731,585. The share repurchase program does not obligate the Company to repurchase any specific dollar amount or number of shares and may be suspended or discontinued at any time.

We periodically review our portfolio of brands and evaluate potential strategic transactions to increase shareholder value. However, we cannot predict whether or when we may enter into acquisitions, joint ventures or dispositions, make any purchases of shares of our common stock under our share repurchase program, or pay dividends, or what impact any such transactions could have on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition, whether as a result of the issuance of debt or equity securities, or otherwise. Our cash flows from operations, borrowing availability and overall liquidity are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, including those described in the section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year-ended December 31, 2012 entitled “Item 1A. Risk Factors.”

On June 30, 2013, we had cash and cash equivalents of $123.6 million, of which $91.4 million was held at non-U.S. subsidiaries. We manage our global cash requirements considering (i) available funds among the subsidiaries through which we conduct business, (ii) the geographic location of our liquidity needs, and (iii) the cost to access international cash balances. The repatriation of non-U.S. cash balances from certain subsidiaries could have adverse tax consequences as we may be required to pay and record income tax expense on those funds to the extent they were previously considered indefinitely reinvested.

We have a $650 million committed revolving credit facility, as well as a $350 million term loan, both of which expire in July 2018. In July 2013, these facilities were renewed under essentially the same terms and conditions, extending the maturity date from October 2016 to July 2018. On June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, our outstanding borrowing under the term loan was $320.0 million. On June 30, 2013 our outstanding borrowing under the revolving credit facility was $60.0 million. There was no outstanding balance as of December 31, 2012. The interest rates under these facilities are variable based on LIBOR at the time of the borrowing and the Company’s leverage as measured by a debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio (as defined in the agreements governing the facilities). Based upon the Company’s debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio, the Company’s borrowing rate could range from LIBOR + 1.0% to LIBOR + 2.0%. At June 30, 2013, we were in compliance with all covenants under these facilities.

Cash Flows

Below is a summary of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.


	Six Months Ended June 30,
(In millions)	2013			2012
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	45.9		$	52.5
Net cash used in investing activities		(330.3	)		(30.0	)
Net cash provided by financing activities		71.9			2.9
Effect of foreign exchange rate changes on cash		0.1			1.0

Net (decrease) increase in cash and cash equivalents	$	(212.4	)	$	26.4

Net cash provided by operating activities was $45.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to $52.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2012. The decrease in cash provided of $6.6 million was primarily due to higher incentive compensation and customer program payments in the first quarter of 2013 compared to 2012, partially offset by $40.8 million in higher net income.

Net cash used in investing activities was $330.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to $30.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2012. The increase in cash used of $300.3 million was primarily due to the acquisition of WoodCrafters.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $71.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to $2.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2012. The increase in cash provided of $69.0 million was primarily due to the favorable impact of net borrowings of $110 million ($60 million in net borrowings in 2013 compared to net debt repayments of $50 million in 2012), as well as the tax benefit of stock option exercises ($9.1 million). Cash provided by financing activities was unfavorably impacted by less cash received from stock option exercises ($26.0 million), dividends paid ($16.5 million) and stock repurchases in 2013 ($13.5 million).

Customer Credit Risk

We routinely grant unsecured credit to customers in the normal course of business. Accounts receivable were $499.8 million and $381.7 million as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, and are recorded at their stated amount less allowances for discounts, doubtful accounts and returns. Allowances for doubtful accounts include provisions for certain customers where a risk of default has been specifically identified, as well as provisions determined on a general formula basis when it is determined that the risk of some default is probable and estimable but cannot yet be associated with specific customers. The assessment of the likelihood of customer defaults is based on a variety of factors, including the length of time the receivables are past due, the historical collection experience and existing economic conditions. In accordance with our policy, our allowance for doubtful accounts was $8.6 million and $9.0 million as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. The conditions in the global economy and credit markets may reduce our customers’ ability to access sufficient liquidity and capital to fund their operations and make our estimation of customer defaults inherently uncertain. While we believe current allowances for doubtful accounts are adequate, it is possible that the Company could experience higher levels of customer defaults and bad debt expense in future periods.

Counterparty Risk

The counterparties to our foreign currency and commodity derivative contracts are major financial institutions. Although our theoretical risk is the replacement cost at the then estimated fair value of these instruments, we believe that the risk of incurring losses is unlikely and that the losses, if any, would be immaterial to our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition. The fair value of our derivative assets at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 was $4.0 million and $1.2 million, respectively. The estimated fair value of our derivative contracts represents the amount required to enter into offsetting contracts with similar remaining maturities based on quoted market prices.

Pension Plans

Subsidiaries of Home & Security sponsor their respective defined benefit pension plans that are funded by a portfolio of investments maintained within our benefit plan trust. As of December 31, 2012, the fair value of our total pension plan assets was $536.8 million, representing 76% of the accumulated benefit obligation liability. In 2013, we expect to make pension contributions of approximately $35 million. For the foreseeable future, we believe that we have sufficient liquidity to meet the minimum funding that may be required by the Pension Protection Act of 2006.

Foreign Exchange

We have investments in various foreign countries, principally Canada, Mexico, China and France. Therefore, changes in the value of the related currencies affect our financial statements when translated into U.S. dollars.

Item 3.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

There have been no material changes in the information provided in the section entitled “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Item 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

The Company’s management has evaluated, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.

(b) Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.

There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. The Company is in the process of reviewing the internal control structure of acquired businesses and, if necessary, will make appropriate changes as we incorporate our controls and procedures into recent acquisitions.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

(a) Other Litigation.

The Company is a defendant in lawsuits associated with the normal conduct of its businesses and operations. It is not possible to predict the outcome of the pending actions, and, as with any litigation, it is possible that these actions could be decided unfavorably to the Company. The Company believes that there are meritorious defenses to these actions and that these actions will not have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or financial condition, and, where appropriate, these actions are being vigorously contested.

(b) Environmental Matters.

We are subject to laws and regulations relating to protection of the environment. It is not possible to quantify with certainty the potential impact of actions relating to environmental matters, particularly remediation and other compliance efforts that our subsidiaries may undertake in the future. In our opinion, however, compliance with current environmental protection laws (before taking into account estimated recoveries from third parties) will not have a material adverse effect upon our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

Item 1A.

RISK FACTORS.

There have been no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 in the section entitled “Risk Factors.”

The Closing may be accomplished by telecopy or electronic mail exchange of signature pages with originals to follow by overnight delivery, or in such other manner or at such other place as the Parties hereto may agree. The Contemplated Transactions (other than the Pre-Closing Reorganization) will be deemed to be effective at the Effective Time.

2.3 Consideration. As consideration for the purchase of the Membership Interests, Purchaser agrees to pay to Sellers at the Closing the Purchase Price as follows:

(a) Closing Payment. At the Closing, Purchaser shall deliver the Closing Payment to Sellers by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account(s) designated in writing by Sellers.

(d) Allocation of Purchase Price.

Contemporaneously with Purchaser’s delivery of the Closing Balance Sheet and related documents described in Section 2.4(a), Purchaser shall deliver to Sellers Purchaser’s proposed allocation of Purchase Price which shall be prepared in a fashion consistent with Schedule 2.3(d) based upon figures reflected on the Closing Balance Sheet and any other relevant financial data (“Proposed Allocation of Purchase Price”). Any objections that any Seller has to the Proposed Allocation of Purchase Price shall be raised in a fashion that is consistent with the procedures specified in Section 2.4, and any disputes relating to such issues shall be resolved using the procedures specified in Section 2.4. The final determination of the proper allocation of Purchase Price (and all other capitalizable costs) shall be referred to herein as the “Final Allocation of Purchase Price.” The Final Allocation of Purchase Price shall be used by all Parties for all income Tax purposes and in all income Tax filings, declarations and reports, including any reports required to be filed under Section 1060 of the Code (such as IRS Form 8594). In any action, suit, investigation or proceeding related to the determination of income Tax, neither Purchaser nor Sellers shall contend or represent that such allocation is not a correct allocation. The Final Allocation of Purchase Price shall be revised, as appropriate, if the Purchase Price is adjusted, as provided for hereunder.

2.4 Purchase Price Adjustments.

(a) Post-Closing Adjustments. Within sixty (60) days following the Closing Date, Purchaser shall prepare and deliver to Sellers a consolidated balance sheet of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the Effective Time (the “Closing Balance Sheet”) together with a schedule (the “Closing Date Schedule”) setting forth Purchaser’s calculation of (i) the Cash as of the Effective Time (the “Closing Date Cash”); (ii) the Company Indebtedness as of the Effective Time (the “Closing Date Company Indebtedness”); (iii) the Closing Net Working Capital; and (iv) the Target Net Working Capital, based on entries set forth in the Closing Balance Sheet, in each case prepared in accordance with GAAP in a manner consistent with the classification in the audited financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2012. The Closing Date Schedule shall be accompanied by detailed schedules supporting each such calculation. For illustrative purposes, an example of how Closing Net Working Capital is calculated is attached hereto as Schedule 2.4(a).

(b) Resolution. After the delivery of the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Date Schedule and until such time as the Purchase Price Adjustments are determined in accordance with this Section 2.4, Sellers and their advisors shall have access during reasonable business hours upon prior written notice to the working papers of Purchaser and its agents and advisors relating to the Closing Balance Sheet, the Closing Date Schedule and the calculations set forth thereon, and shall be afforded reasonable access, upon reasonable notice during normal business hours, to the personnel, books and records of the Company, the Subsidiaries and their accountants to the extent relevant to the review of such Closing Balance Sheet and Closing Date Schedule. Unless Sellers, within sixty (60) days after receipt of the Closing Balance Sheet and

the Closing Date Schedule, gives Purchaser a notice objecting thereto and specifying, in reasonable detail, the basis for each such objection and the amount in dispute (“Notice of Objection”), such Closing Balance Sheet, Closing Date Schedule and the Purchase Price Adjustments resulting therefrom shall be final and binding upon all of the Parties hereto, except in the case of manifest error or fraud. If a timely Notice of Objection is received by Purchaser, then the Closing Date Schedule (as revised in accordance with this Section 2.4) shall become final and binding upon the Parties on the earlier of (i) the date Sellers and Purchaser resolve in writing any differences they have with respect to any matter specified in the Notice of Objection or (ii) the date any matters properly in dispute are finally resolved in writing by the Accounting Firm. During the thirty (30) days immediately following the delivery of a Notice of Objection, Sellers and Purchaser shall seek in good faith to resolve in writing any differences that they may have with respect to any matter specified in the Notice of Objection. At the end of such thirty (30) day period, Sellers and Purchaser shall submit to the Accounting Firm for review and resolution of any and all matters (but only such matters) which remain in dispute and which were properly included in the Notice of Objection. Purchaser and Sellers shall instruct the Accounting Firm to review and resolve any and all matters (but only such matters) which remain in dispute and which were properly included in the Notice of Objection. Purchaser and Sellers shall instruct the Accounting Firm to make a final determination of the items included in the Closing Balance Sheet and/or the Closing Date Schedule (to the extent such amounts are in dispute) in accordance with the guidelines and procedures set forth in the definition of Closing Net Working Capital, Target Net Working Capital and Cash. Purchaser and Sellers will cooperate with the Accounting Firm during the term of its engagement. Purchaser and Sellers shall instruct the Accounting Firm not to assign a value to any item in dispute greater than the greatest value for such item assigned by Purchaser, on the one hand, or Sellers, on the other hand, or less than the smallest value for such item assigned by Purchaser, on the one hand, or Sellers, on the other hand. Purchaser and Sellers shall also instruct the Accounting Firm to make its determination based solely on presentations by Purchaser and Sellers that are in accordance with the guidelines and procedures set forth in this Agreement (i.e., not on the basis of an independent review). The Closing Date Schedule and the resulting Purchase Price Adjustments shall become final and binding on the Parties hereto on the date the Accounting Firm delivers its final resolution in writing to Purchaser and Sellers (which final resolution shall be requested by the Parties to be delivered not more than forty-five (45) days following submission of such disputed matters to the Accounting Firm) and shall not be subject to judicial review (except in the case of manifest error or fraud). All of the fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm pursuant to this Section 2.4 shall be borne by Sellers, on the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other hand, 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 Closing Date Schedule and the resulting Purchase Price Adjustments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sellers and Purchaser shall each bear its own costs in presenting their respective cases to the Accounting Firm.

(c) Payment of Working Capital Adjustment. The following adjustment (the “Working Capital Adjustment”) shall be made to the Purchase Price based on the final determination of the Closing Net Working Capital pursuant to Section 2.4(b):

(ii) If Closing Net Working Capital is less than the Target Net Working Capital (and such difference exceeds the Collar Amount), then Purchaser shall be entitled to receive from Sellers an amount in cash equal to the difference between Closing Net Working Capital and Target Net Working Capital, but only to the extent and for the amount of such difference in excess of the Collar Amount, which shall be paid to Purchaser as set forth in Section 2.4(e).

(iii) For purposes hereof, any payment made pursuant to Section 2.4(c)(i), shall be referred to herein as a “Positive Working Capital Adjustment Amount” and any payment made pursuant to Section 2.4(c)(ii), shall be referred to herein as a “Negative Working Capital Adjustment Amount”.

(iv) In the event that the Negative Working Capital Adjustment Amount exceeds the Working Capital Holdback Amount (taking into account any reduction thereof relating to the Closing Date Cash Adjustment), Purchaser shall, at its option, be entitled to (A) set off the amount of such Negative Working Capital Adjustment Amount against the Indemnity Holdback Amount and/or (B) demand payment of such Negative Working Capital Adjustment Amount from Sellers which amount shall be paid by Sellers within the time periods specified in Section 2.4(e).

(d) Payment of Closing Date Cash Adjustment. The following adjustment (the “Closing Date Cash Adjustment”) shall be made to the Purchase Price based on the final determination of the Closing Date Cash and the Closing Date Company Indebtedness pursuant to Section 2.4(b):

(ii) If Closing Date Cash is less than the Closing Date Company Indebtedness (such difference being the “Negative Closing Date Cash Adjustment Amount”), then Purchaser shall be entitled to receive from Sellers an amount in cash equal to the Negative Closing Date Cash Adjustment Amount, which shall be paid as set forth in Section 2.4(e).

(iii) In the event that the Negative Closing Date Cash Adjustment Amount exceeds the Working Capital Holdback Amount (taking into account any reduction thereof relating to the Working Capital Adjustment), Purchaser shall, at its option, be entitled to (A) set off the amount of such Negative Closing Date Cash Adjustment Amount against the Indemnity Holdback Amount and/or (B) demand payment of such Negative Closing Date Cash Adjustment Amount from Sellers which amount shall be paid by Sellers within the time periods specified in Section 2.4(e).

Any amounts owed by Sellers pursuant to this Section 2.4 shall be satisfied in the following manner: (i) first, as a set off against the Working Capital Holdback Amount and (ii) second, to the extent such amounts exceed the Working Capital Holdback Amount, as a claim directly against Sellers, subject to Section 2.4(c)(iv) and Section 2.4(d)(ii). Any obligations of Sellers under this Section 2.4 shall be the sole obligations of Tan. Payments pursuant to Sections 2.4(c) and 2.4(d) shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account(s) designated by Sellers or Purchaser, as applicable, as follows: (i) if no Notice of Objection is delivered by Sellers, such amount(s) shall be paid within fifteen (15) Business Days of the earlier of the expiration of the sixty (60) day period for delivery of such Notice of Objection and the date of delivery by Purchaser of a notice that the Closing Date Schedule will be accepted without objection, or (ii) if a Notice of Objection is delivered by Sellers, (A) any net undisputed amount due shall be paid within fifteen (15) Business Days after delivery of such Notice of Objection, and (B) the remaining amount, if any, due shall be paid within fifteen (15) Business Days after the date all disputed items are finally resolved pursuant to Section 2.4(b).

If the Wall Street Journal prime rate ceases to be made available by the publisher, or any successor to the publisher of The Wall Street Journal, the interest rate will be determined by using a comparable index.

ARTICLE V

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF PURCHASER

Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to Sellers that, except as set forth in a Disclosure Schedule corresponding in number to the applicable Section of this ARTICLE V:

5.1 Organization and Good Standing. Purchaser is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, with the requisite power and authority to own and use its properties and assets and to carry on its business as currently conducted. Purchaser is duly qualified as a foreign corporation to do business and, to the extent legally applicable, is in good standing in each jurisdiction where the character of its owned, operated or leased properties or the nature of its activities makes such qualification necessary, except for jurisdictions where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing would not impair or delay the ability of Purchaser to consummate the Contemplated Transactions by, or perform its obligations under, this Agreement and each other Transaction Agreement to which it is a party.

5.2 Authority Relative to Agreement; Effect of Agreement. All action on the part of Purchaser necessary for the authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement and each other Transaction Agreement to which it is a party, and the performance of all of its obligations hereunder and thereunder have been taken or will be taken prior to the date of this Agreement. Purchaser has full power and authority to enter into this Agreement and each other Transaction Agreement to which it is a party. This Agreement (assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by each other party hereto) constitutes, and upon execution and delivery of each other Transaction Agreement to which Purchaser is a party (assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by each other party thereto) will constitute, valid and legally binding obligations of Purchaser, enforceable in accordance with their terms, except (a) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other Laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally or (b) as limited by Laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies.

5.3 Absence of Conflict. None of the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement and each other Transaction Agreement to which Purchaser is a party, nor the consummation of the Contemplated Transactions, will directly or indirectly:

(a) result in any violation or breach of any material Contract to which Purchaser is a party or by which Purchaser or any of Purchaser’s material assets are bound; or

(b) result in a violation of any Law or Order, in any material respect, to which Purchaser or any of Purchaser’s material assets are subject.

5.4 Authorizations. Except as set forth in Schedule 5.4 of the Disclosure Schedule, no Authorization is required to be obtained or given by Purchaser in connection with the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement and each other Transaction Agreement to which it is a party or the consummation of the Contemplated Transactions.

5.5 Litigation. There is no Order or Action which exists, is pending or, to the Knowledge of Purchaser, threatened against Purchaser or any of its officers, directors, agents, employees or equity holders which questions the validity of this Agreement or any action taken or to be taken in connection herewith or that would give any third party the right to enjoin or rescind the Contemplated Transactions or otherwise prevent Purchaser from complying with the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

5.6 No Brokers or Finders. Purchaser has no Liability to pay any Brokers Obligations with respect to the Contemplated Transactions.

5.7 Investment. Purchaser is acquiring the Membership Interests for its own account for investment and not with a view to distribution within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act or with any present intention of distributing or selling the Membership Interests. It has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its purchase of the Membership Interests. It confirms that Sellers have made available to it and its representatives the opportunity to ask questions of the officers and management of the Company and to acquire such additional information about the operations and the financial condition of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

5.8 Restricted Securities. The Membership Interests being acquired by it are characterized as “restricted securities” under the federal securities laws inasmuch as such Membership Interests are being acquired in a transaction not involving a public offering, and that under such Laws and applicable regulations such securities may not be resold without registration under the Securities Act unless an exemption from registration thereunder is available. Purchaser represents that it is familiar with Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act as presently in effect, and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Securities Act.

(b) Filing Responsibility. The following provisions shall govern the allocation of responsibility for the preparation of Tax Returns before and after the Closing Date and payment of Taxes as between Purchaser and Sellers for certain Tax matters:

(vi) Purchaser shall pay Sellers any amount representing a refund or overpayment of any Taxes imposed upon the Company and the Subsidiaries with respect to all Tax periods (or portions thereof) as to which Sellers are liable pursuant to this Section 7.3 within five (5) Business Days of Purchaser’s receipt of such amount or, if earlier, at the time Purchaser claims any reduction of Tax due from the Company or any Subsidiary relating to such refund or overpayment; provided, however, that, for the avoidance of doubt, and notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Purchaser shall not be liable to Sellers with respect to any such refund or overpayment of Taxes to the extent that such amount was reflected as an asset in the Closing Balance Sheet (as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.4).

(vii) For purposes of this Section 7.3, in the case of any Taxes that are imposed on a periodic basis and are payable for a Tax period that includes but does not end at or prior to the Effective Time, the portion of such Tax which relates to the portion of such Tax period ending at the Effective Time shall (A) in the case of any Taxes other than Taxes based upon or related to income, gains or receipts, be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire Tax period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the Tax period before the Effective Time and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire Tax period, and (B) in the case of any Tax based upon or related to income, gains or

receipts be deemed equal to the amount which would be payable if the relevant Tax period ended at the Effective Time. Any Tax credits relating to a Tax period that begins before and ends after the Closing Date shall be taken into account as though the relevant Tax period ended at the Effective Time.

(i) Subject to the limitations in this Section 7.3, Tan hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser from and against Liabilities of the Company, any Subsidiary and their respective Affiliates for Taxes (including, without limitation, withholding Taxes that apply to any interest paid, royalty payments or rents that are required to be paid to a third party in any country other than the payor’s country of formation) attributable to Tax periods (or portions thereof) of the Company, any Subsidiary or any of their respective Affiliates ending at or before the Effective Time. Tan hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser from and against any Liabilities of Sellers for Taxes attributable to any Tax period. In addition, Tan agrees to indemnify and hold Purchaser harmless from and against any Liabilities of the Company, any Subsidiary and their respective Affiliates for Taxes allocable to Tax periods (or portions thereof) beginning after the Effective Time that arise out of a Tax Contest for a Tax period ending at or prior to the Effective Time that are attributable to a decrease in income or a gain, or an increase in deduction, loss or credit for a Tax period ending at or before the Effective Time in an amount not to exceed the amount of any refund of Tax actually received and retained by Sellers as a result thereof. Sellers’ indemnification obligations under this Section 7.3(c)(i) are referred to herein as the “Tax Indemnity”. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any obligations of Sellers under Section 7.3 shall be obligations of Tan.

(ii) For purposes of this Section 7.3 and the calculation of any indemnity payable or amount recoverable under this Agreement, any interest, penalties or additions to Tax accruing before or after the Effective Time with respect to a Liability for Taxes for which Purchaser is entitled to recover from Sellers shall be deemed to be attributable to a Tax period with respect to which Sellers are required to indemnify Purchaser.

(d) Tax Treatment of Indemnity Payments. Sellers and Purchaser agree to treat any indemnity payment made pursuant to this Agreement as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for income Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.

(e) Tax Contests. Purchaser shall inform Sellers of the commencement of any audit, investigation, examination or proceeding (“Tax Contest”) relating in whole or in part to Taxes for which Purchaser may be entitled to indemnity from Sellers hereunder. With respect to any Tax Contest involving any Tax period for which Sellers would be liable under this Section 7.3, Sellers shall be entitled to control, in good faith, all proceedings taken in connection with such Tax Contest with counsel or other professional advisors reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser; provided, however, that (i) Sellers shall promptly notify Purchaser in writing of Sellers intention to control such Tax Contest, (ii) in the case of a Tax Contest relating to Taxes of the Company, any Subsidiary or any of their respective Affiliates for a Tax period beginning before and ending after the Effective Time, Sellers and Purchaser shall jointly control all proceedings taken in connection with any such Tax Contest, and (iii) if any Tax Contest would reasonably be expected to have a materially adverse effect on Purchaser, the Company, or any of

their Affiliates in any Tax period beginning after the Effective Time, the Tax Contest shall not be settled or resolved without Purchaser’s consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if notice is given to Sellers of the commencement of any Tax Contest and Sellers do not, within twenty (20) Business Days after Purchaser’s notice is given, give written notice to Purchaser of its election to assume the defense thereof, Sellers shall be bound by any determination made in such Tax Contest or any compromise or settlement thereof effected, in good faith, by Purchaser. The failure of Purchaser to give reasonably prompt notice of any Tax Contest shall not release, waive or otherwise affect Sellers’ obligations with respect thereto except to the extent that Sellers can demonstrate material loss and prejudice as a result of such failure. Purchaser and the Company shall use their reasonable efforts to provide Sellers with such assistance as may be reasonably requested by Sellers in connection with a Tax Contest controlled solely or jointly by Sellers.

(f) Amended Returns, etc.

(i) Except as required by Law or to the extent provided in Sections 7.3(e) and 7.3(f)(ii), without the prior written consent of Sellers (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), none of Purchaser, the Company, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of Purchaser shall file any amended Tax Return with respect to any Tax period ending on or before the Effective Time, unless Purchaser, Company and any such Subsidiary or Affiliate agree to indemnify and hold Sellers harmless from and against any potential adverse Tax effect relating thereto and release Sellers from any claim under this Section 7.3 and ARTICLE X arising therefrom.

(ii) To the extent permitted by Law, each of Purchaser, the Company and the Subsidiaries may carry back, or cause or permit the Company and the Subsidiaries to carry back, for federal, state, local or non-U.S. Tax purposes to any taxable year or period, or portion thereof, ending on or before the Effective Time any operating losses, net operating losses, capital losses, Tax credits or similar items arising in a taxable period (or portion thereof) occurring on or after the Effective Time, except to the extent that Sellers would be materially adversely affected by such carryback. To the extent that any Liability for which, but for such carryback, Sellers would be liable under Section 7.3(b)(vii) is thereby reduced or extinguished, Tan covenants to pay to Purchaser, the Company or the relevant Affiliate an amount equivalent to the Liability that would otherwise have arisen under Section 7.3(b)(vii). Any refunds of Taxes resulting from such carrybacks shall be for the benefit of Purchaser and the Company and the Subsidiaries, and Sellers shall have no entitlement thereto.

(g) Transfer and Similar Taxes. All real property transfer taxes, other transfer, documentary, sales, use, registration, stamp and similar Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with the purchase of the Membership Interests (collectively, “Transfer Taxes”), shall be paid by Purchaser.

(h) Payments. Purchaser may by written notice to Sellers make a claim for indemnification or recovery under this Section 7.3 which shall include a calculation of the amount of the requested indemnity or recovery payment and such additional information as may be reasonably sufficient to permit Sellers to verify such claim. Within ten (10) Business Days after the indemnity or recovery calculation has been provided, Sellers shall pay to Purchaser the recovery or indemnification amount determined to be due.

(i) Access and Assistance. Following the Effective Time, Purchaser shall and shall cause the Company and each of the Subsidiaries to give Sellers and their authorized representatives reasonable access during normal business hours upon at least five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice to the books and records of the Company to the extent relating to periods prior to or including the Effective Time as Sellers may reasonably request for purposes of preparing Tax Returns and conducting proceedings relating to Taxes. Purchaser, the Company, each of the Subsidiaries, Sellers and their Affiliates will provide each other with such assistance as may reasonably be requested by any of them in connection with the preparation of any Tax Return, any audit or other examination by any Taxing Authority, any judicial or administrative proceedings relating to Liability for Taxes, or any other matter relating to Taxes and arising under this Section 7.3, and each will retain and provide the others with any records or information that may be relevant to any such Tax Return, audit or examination, proceeding or claim. Such assistance shall include making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder and shall include providing copies of any relevant Tax Returns and supporting work schedules and other records and information which assistance shall be provided without charge except for reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses. Purchaser will or will cause the Company and each of the Subsidiaries to retain, until all appropriate statutes of limitation (including any extensions) expire, copies of all Tax Returns of the Company and the Subsidiaries, supporting work schedules and other records or information which may be relevant to such Tax Returns, and will not destroy or otherwise dispose of such materials without first providing Sellers with a reasonable opportunity to review and copy such materials.

(j) Treatment of Purchase. For U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Parties agree to treat the purchase of the Membership Interests by Purchaser as a purchase by Purchaser of all of the Company’s assets, as provided in Revenue Ruling 99-6, 1999-1 C.B. 432 Situation #2. Sellers have been given the opportunity to consult with their own Tax advisors with respect to the Tax consequences of the Contemplated Transactions.

7.4 Non-competition; Non-solicitation.

(a) Tanus, for himself and his Affiliates and Family Members, hereby agrees for a period of three (3) years following the Closing Date, and each Seller, hereby agrees for a period of two (2) years following the Closing Date, not to directly or indirectly:

(i) engage or invest in, own, manage, operate, finance, control, or participate in the ownership, management operation, financing, or control of, be employed by, associated with, or in any manner connected with, lend such Seller’s name or any similar name to, lend their credit to or render services, assistance or advice to, any Competing Business anywhere in North America; provided, however, that Tanus and his Affiliates and Family Members, and each such Seller may purchase or otherwise acquire up to (but not more than) five percent of any class of equity securities (including securities convertible into or exchangeable for such equity securities) of any Competing Business (but without otherwise participating in the activities of such Competing Business) if such equity securities (including securities convertible into or exchangeable for such equity securities) are listed on any national or registered security exchange or have been registered under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934;

(ii) whether for Tanus, his Affiliates or Family Members or for such Seller’s own account or for the account of any other Person, solicit Competing Business from any Person known by any Seller to be a customer of the Company or any Subsidiary, whether or not Tanus, his Affiliates or Family Members, or such Seller had personal contact with such Person during and by reason of Tanus, his Affiliates or Family Members’ or such Seller’s employment or ownership of the Company;

(iii) whether for Tanus, his Affiliates or Family Members or for such Seller’s own account or the account of any other Person (A) solicit, any person who is an employee of the Company or any Subsidiary (except any individual identified on Schedule 7.4(a)(iii) of the Disclosure Schedule) or in any manner induce or attempt to induce any employee of the Company or any Subsidiary (except any individual identified on Schedule 7.4(a)(iii) of the Disclosure Schedule) to terminate his employment with the Company or any such Subsidiary; or (B) interfere with the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ relationship with any Person; or

(iv) publicly disparage the Company, its Subsidiaries or any of their stockholders, members, managers, directors, officers, employees, or agents.

(b) The Parties hereto agree that irreparable damage may occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Section 7.4 was not performed in accordance with its specified terms or was otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that, subject to the determination of a court of competent jurisdiction, Purchaser shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Section 7.4 and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions herein in any court of competent jurisdiction, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity (without any requirement to post bond).

(c) Tanus and each Seller acknowledge that the restrictions contained in this Section 7.4 are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate interests of Purchaser and constitute a material inducement to Purchaser to enter into this Agreement and consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The covenants contained in this Section 7.4 and each provision hereof are severable and distinct covenants and provisions. The invalidity or unenforceability of any such covenant or provision as written shall not invalidate or render unenforceable the remaining covenants or provisions hereof, and any such invalidity or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such covenant or provision in any other jurisdiction. If, at the time of enforcement of this Section 7.4, a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the restrictions stated herein are unreasonable under the circumstances then existing, Tanus and each Seller agree that the maximum period, scope or geographical area reasonable under such circumstances shall be substituted for the stated period, scope or area.

7.5 Confidential Information. As a further inducement for Purchaser to enter into this Agreement, Tanus and each Seller agree that for three (3) years after the Closing Date, Tanus or such Seller shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, hold in strictest confidence, and not, without

the prior written approval of Purchaser, use for its own benefit or the benefit of any Person other than the Company, the Subsidiaries or Purchaser or disclose to any Person other than Purchaser (other than as required by Law) any Confidential Information (as such term is defined in the NDA) of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

No Party shall have any Liability for any claim for indemnification under ARTICLE X unless a Claim Notice is delivered by the Person seeking indemnification to the Person from whom indemnification is sought prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period, in which case the representation, warranty, covenant or agreement which is the subject of such claim shall survive, to the extent of the claims described in such Claim Notice only, until such claim is resolved, whether or not the amount of the Damages resulting from such breach has been finally determined at the time the Claim Notice is given.

(b) Basket. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Tan shall not be liable to Purchaser Indemnified Parties for indemnification under Section 10.1 unless and until the aggregate Damages which may be recovered from Tan exceeds $2,000,000 (the “Basket”), in which case Tan shall be liable for only the aggregate amount of Damages in excess of the Basket. The limitation in this Section 10.3(b) shall not apply to Damages relating to or arising out of any breach of the Fundamental Representations or intentional or fraudulent misrepresentations (“Fraud Claims”).

(c) Cap. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the maximum aggregate amount of indemnifiable Damages which may be recovered for indemnification pursuant to Section 10.1 or Section 10.2, as applicable, shall be $30,000,000 (the “Cap”); provided, that, (i) for Damages incurred in connection with or arising from any breach of the Fundamental Representations, the Cap shall be the Purchase Price, and (ii) if the aggregate amount of indemnifiable Damages exceeds $30,000,000 as a result of any breach of any representation or warranty in Section 4.16 (Taxes) or Section 4.23 (Environmental Compliance) or any covenant in Section 7.3 (Tax Matters) (the “Tax and Environmental Claims”), the Cap shall be increased to $45,000,000, but only to the extent of such Damages arising from such Tax and Environmental Claims. The limitation in this Section 10.3(c) shall not apply to Damages relating to or arising out of any breach of a post-Closing covenant in this Agreement (other than Section 7.3 or Section 7.8) or intentional or fraudulent misrepresentations.

(d) Knowledge. The right to indemnification, payment of Damages or other remedy based on any breach of the representations, warranties, covenants, and obligations set forth herein and in the Transaction Agreements will not be affected by any investigation conducted with respect to, or any Knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired) at any time, whether before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the Closing Date, with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of or compliance with any such representation, warranty, covenant, or obligation. The waiver of any condition based on the accuracy of any representation or warranty, or on the performance of or compliance with any covenant or obligation, will not affect the right to indemnification, payment of Damages, or other remedy based on such representations, warranties, covenants, and obligations.

(e) Purchase Price Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no Purchaser Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnification for any Damages to the extent that such Damages were included within the calculation of the Purchase Price Adjustments.

10.4 Procedures with Respect to Claims.

(a) Inter-Party Claims. In order for a Purchaser Indemnified Party or a Seller Indemnified Party (each, an “Indemnified Party”) to seek indemnification pursuant to this ARTICLE X, with respect to any matter not covered by Section 10.4(b), the Indemnified Party shall, provide the other Party or Parties from whom such indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) a notice in writing (a “Claim Notice”) specifying in reasonable detail the basis of such claim and the claimed amount of such Damages, to the extent then known (the “Claimed Amount”); provided, however, that failure to give such Claim Notice shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except and only to the extent the Indemnifying Party shall have been actually and materially prejudiced as a result of such failure. The Indemnified Party shall thereupon give the Indemnifying Party reasonable access to the books, records and assets of the Indemnified Party which evidence or support such claim or the act, omission or occurrence giving rise to such Claim Notice. Within twenty (20) days after delivery of a Claim Notice, the Indemnifying Party shall deliver to the Indemnified Party a response (the “Response”) in which the Indemnifying Party shall either:

(i) agree that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive all of the Claimed Amount, in which case the Response shall be accompanied by a payment by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of the Claimed Amount, by check or by wire transfer;

(ii) agree that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive some other amount mutually agreed between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party (the “Agreed Amount”), in which case the Response shall be accompanied by a payment by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of the Agreed Amount, by check or by wire transfer; or

(iii) in good faith dispute that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive any of the Claimed Amount, specifying in reasonable detail the grounds for such dispute and the amount of Damages for which the Indemnifying Party believes it should be responsible (a “Dispute”). During the thirty (30) day period following the delivery of a Response that

reflects a Dispute, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall use good faith efforts to resolve the Dispute. If such Dispute is not resolved during such thirty (30) day period, such Dispute shall be resolved in a state or federal court, in accordance with Sections 11.10 and 11.11.

In the event that an Indemnifying Party does not deliver a Response within twenty (20) days after delivery of a Claim Notice, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have agreed that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive all of the Claimed Amount.

(b) Procedures with Respect to Third-Party Claims.

(i) In the event an Indemnified Party is made a party to a Third Party Claim arising out of a matter for which such Indemnified Party is entitled to be indemnified pursuant to this ARTICLE X, such Indemnified Party shall, within twenty (20) days after receiving actual notice of such Third Party Claim, notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of the Third Party Claim (which notice shall specify in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances giving rise to such Third Party Claim); provided, however, that failure to give or any delay in such notification shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except and only to the extent the Indemnifying Party shall have been actually and materially prejudiced as a result of such failure or delay. Thereafter, the Indemnified Party shall deliver to the Indemnifying Party, promptly following the Indemnified Party’s receipt thereof, copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnified Party relating to the Third Party Claim. As used herein, “Third Party Claim” means an Action which is asserted or threatened by a party other than the Parties hereto, their successors and permitted assigns against an Indemnified Party.

(ii) The Indemnifying Party may assume the defense of any Third Party Claim with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party (provided such counsel is reasonably acceptable to each Indemnified Party and which shall be deemed acceptable if each such Indemnified Party does not otherwise notify the Indemnifying Party within ten (10) days after having been notified in writing of the identity thereof) by providing written notice to the Indemnified Party within twenty (20) days after receiving written notice of the Third Party Claim from the Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 10.4(b)(i); provided, that if the Indemnifying Party is any Seller, such Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume or direct the defense of any such Third Party Claim that (A) is asserted directly by or on behalf of a Person that is a supplier or customer of the Company, or (B) seeks an injunction or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party elects to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate and reasonably consult and advise in the defense thereof and to employ counsel, at its own expense, separate from the counsel employed by the Indemnifying Party, provided, that if the named parties to such action, suit, proceeding or claim include both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnified Party has been advised in writing by its counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to such Indemnified Party that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party shall be entitled, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense (subject to the limitations set forth in this ARTICLE X), to separate counsel of its own choosing. Regardless of the party controlling the defense or prosecution of a Third Party Claim (such controlling party being, the “Controlling Party”), all Indemnifying and Indemnified Parties shall reasonably cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof. Such reasonable cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the non-Controlling Party’s request) the

provision to the Controlling Party of records and information in the Controlling Party’s possession that are reasonably relevant to such Third Party Claim, and making the Controlling Parties’ respective agents and representatives available on a reasonable and mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. Provided that the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall not admit any Liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge, such Third Party Claim without the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect any settlement, compromise or discharge of any Third Party Claim in respect of which any Indemnified Party is named, unless such settlement, compromise or discharge, as the case may be, (x) includes an unconditional written release of the Indemnified Party, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, from all Liability on claims that are the subject matter of such Third Party Claim, (y) does not include any statement as to an admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Party and (z) does not impose any continuing material obligation or restrictions on any Indemnified Party.

10.5 Calculation and Mitigation of Damages. The amount of any Damages for which indemnification is provided under this ARTICLE X shall be net of any amounts actually recovered by such Indemnified Party under insurance policies or other collateral sources with respect to such Damages (net of any deductible incurred in obtaining such proceeds). If the amount to be netted hereunder in connection with a collateral source from any payment required under Section 10.1 or Section 10.2 is received after payment by the Indemnifying Party of any amount otherwise required to be paid to an Indemnified Party pursuant to this ARTICLE X, the Indemnified Party shall repay to the Indemnifying Party, promptly after such receipt, any amount that the Indemnifying Party would not have had to pay pursuant to this ARTICLE X had such receipt occurred at the time of such payment.

10.6 Indemnity Holdback Amount. Any amounts owed by any Seller to a Purchaser Indemnified Party for Damages after the Closing Date shall be satisfied in the following manner: (a) first, as a set off against the Indemnity Holdback Amount and (b) second, to the extent such amounts exceed the then current balance of the Indemnity Holdback Amount, as a claim directly against such Seller.

10.7 Exclusive Remedy. Purchaser and Sellers acknowledge, on their behalf and on behalf of the other Seller Indemnified Parties and the other Purchaser Indemnified Parties, as the case may be, that their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this ARTICLE X and Section 7.3 (other than related to Fraud Claims); provided, however, that this shall not affect the right of any party to seek or obtain specific performance or other equitable remedies where there is no adequate remedy at Law, subject to determination by a court of competent jurisdiction.

10.8 Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments. Any indemnification payment made pursuant to ARTICLE X of this Agreement shall be an adjustment to the Purchase Price for U.S. federal and applicable state and local income Tax purposes. Unless otherwise required by Law, no Party shall take any position inconsistent with the foregoing for any U.S. federal or applicable state or local income Tax purposes.

ARTICLE XI

MISCELLANEOUS

11.1 Termination.

(a) This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing:

(i) by Purchaser upon 5 days’, or such lesser number of days prior to the Closing Date, notice following a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on the part of any Seller or Tanus set forth in this Agreement, or if any representation or warranty of any Seller shall have become untrue, in either case such that the conditions set forth in ARTICLE VIII would not be satisfied, and Sellers, any Seller, Tanus or the Company are unable to cure such deficiency within such five (5) day, or less number of days, period; provided, that Purchaser shall not be able to exercise this termination right if, at the time of such notice or at any time in the notice and cure period triggered by it, Purchaser is in breach of any representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement, and such breach individually or in combination with any other such breach, would cause the conditions set forth in ARTICLE IX not to be satisfied;

(ii) by Tan upon 5 days’, or such lesser number of days prior to the Closing Date, notice following a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement or failure to satisfy any condition on the part of Purchaser set forth in this Agreement, or if any representation or warranty of Purchaser shall become untrue, in either case such that the conditions set forth in ARTICLE IX would not be satisfied, and Purchaser is unable to cure such deficiency within such five (5) day, or less number of days, period; provided, that Tan shall not be able to exercise this termination right if, at the time of such notice or at any time in the notice and cure period triggered by Tan’s notice, Sellers, any Seller or Tanus is in breach of any representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement, and such breach individually or in combination with any other such breach, would cause the conditions set forth in ARTICLE VIII not to be satisfied;

(iii) by Tan or Purchaser if the Closing shall not have occurred by August 30, 2013; provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 11.1 shall not be available to any Party whose failure to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement shall have been the cause of, or shall have resulted in, the failure of the Closing to occur on or prior to such date;

(iv) by either Tan or Purchaser in the event that any Governmental Body shall have issued any Order or taken any other action restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the Contemplated Transactions and such order or other action shall have become final and nonappealable; or

(v) by the mutual written consent of the Parties.

(b) If any Party terminates this Agreement pursuant to this Section 11.2, all rights and obligations of the Parties hereunder shall terminate without any Liability of any Party to any other Party (except in the event of a termination pursuant to Section 11.2(a)(i) or 11.2(a)(ii) above, for any Liability of any Party then in breach); provided, however, that the provisions contained in Sections 6.7, 7.5 and 11.2(b) shall survive termination indefinitely.

11.2 Publicity; Confidentiality.

(a) No press release or other public announcement with respect to this Agreement or any of the Transaction Agreements or any of the Contemplated Transactions may be made by a Party unless and until the text of the announcement and the time and manner of its release have been approved by the other Parties. Sellers and Purchaser will consult with each other concerning the means by which the Company’s employees, customers, suppliers and others having dealings with the Company will be informed of the Contemplated Transactions, and Sellers will have the right to be present for any such communication. If a Party is bound by Law to make a press release or other public announcement, such Party may do so, notwithstanding the failure of the other Party to approve same, provided:

(i) the other Party is given at least three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice of the intention to make such announcement and has a reasonable opportunity to comment on the announcement; and

(ii) the announcement merely relates the facts and then only to the extent necessary to satisfy the specific legal requirement.

(b) Subject to Section 11.2(a), the terms of this Agreement shall remain strictly confidential. Each Party hereto individually covenants not to disclose any of the terms of this Agreement, whether generally or specifically, to any third party, except as may be required by a Party’s attorneys, accountants or insurers, or by Order of a court of competent jurisdiction. The Parties hereto further acknowledge and agree that all information provided by one Party to another is subject to the terms of the NDA, the terms of which are hereby incorporated by reference and which shall remain in effect following Closing.

11.3 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Disclosure Schedule, the other Transaction Agreements and the NDA constitute the entire agreement between the Parties hereto with respect to the Contemplated Transactions and supersede all prior and contemporaneous agreements and understandings, both written and oral, with respect to the Contemplated Transactions.

11.4 Notices. All demands, notices, requests, consents and other communications required or permitted under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be personally delivered or sent by facsimile machine or electronic mail (with a confirmation copy sent by one of the other methods authorized in this Section 11.4), reputable commercial overnight delivery service (including Federal Express and U.S. Postal Service overnight delivery service) or deposited with the U.S. Postal Service and mailed first class, registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, as set forth below:

Each Party, by notice duly given in accordance herewith, may specify a different address for the giving of any notice hereunder.

11.5 Binding Effect; Assignment. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 11.5, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Except as provided in Sections 10.1 and 10.2, nothing in this Agreement shall create or be deemed to create any third party beneficiary rights in any Person not party to this Agreement. No assignment of this Agreement or of any rights or obligations hereunder may be made by any Party (by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other Parties, and any attempted assignment without the required consent shall be void; provided that Purchaser shall not be required under this Section 11.5 to obtain the prior written consent of Sellers in connection with the assignment of Purchaser’s rights hereunder (a)

11.6 Amendments; Waivers; Remedies Cumulative. No alteration, modification or change of this Agreement shall be valid except by an agreement in writing executed by Purchaser and Sellers. No failure or delay by any Party hereto in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder (and no course of dealing between or among any of the Parties) shall operate as a waiver of any such right, power or privilege. No waiver of any default on any one occasion shall constitute a waiver of any subsequent or other default. No single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege shall preclude the further or full exercise thereof. The rights and remedies of the Parties to this Agreement are cumulative and not alternative.

11.7 Counterparts; Signatures by Telecopy. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Signatures sent by telecopy or electronic mail transmissions shall constitute originals.

11.8 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of Delaware applicable to agreements made and to be performed therein, regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflict of laws thereof.

11.9 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE IT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY OF THE AGREEMENTS DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY. EACH PARTY HERETO CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (A) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE SUCH WAIVER, (B) IT UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF SUCH WAIVER, (C) IT MAKES SUCH WAIVER VOLUNTARILY, AND (D) IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 11.9.

11.10 Consent to Jurisdiction.

(a) EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY CONSENTS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE STATE OR FEDERAL COURTS LOCATED WITHIN NEW CASTLE COUNTY IN THE STATE OF DELAWARE, AS WELL AS TO THE JURISDICTION

OF ALL COURTS TO WHICH AN APPEAL MAY BE TAKEN FROM SUCH COURTS, FOR THE PURPOSE OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR OTHER PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE CONTEMPLATED TRANSACTIONS. EACH PARTY HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO BRING ANY SUIT, ACTION OR OTHER PROCEEDING IN OR BEFORE ANY COURT OR TRIBUNAL OTHER THAN THE COURTS DESCRIBED ABOVE AND COVENANTS THAT IT SHALL NOT SEEK IN ANY MANNER TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE OTHER THAN AS SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION 11.10 OR TO CHALLENGE OR SET ASIDE ANY DECISION, AWARD OR JUDGMENT OBTAINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS HEREOF.

(b) EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL OBJECTIONS IT MAY HAVE TO VENUE, INCLUDING THE INCONVENIENCE OF SUCH FORUM, IN ANY OF SUCH COURTS. IN ADDITION, EACH OF THE PARTIES CONSENTS TO THE SERVICE OF PROCESS BY PERSONAL SERVICE OR ANY MANNER IN WHICH NOTICES MAY BE DELIVERED HEREUNDER IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 11.4 OF THIS AGREEMENT.

11.11 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance shall be invalid or unenforceable to any extent, the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances shall not be affected thereby and shall be enforced to the greatest extent permitted by Law. Except as provided in Section 7.4(c), upon such determination that any provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the Contemplated Transactions be consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent permitted by Law.

11.12 Enforcement of Agreement. The Parties hereto agree that irreparable damage may occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement was not performed in accordance with its specified terms or was otherwise breached, and for which there is no adequate remedy at Law. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof for which there is no adequate remedy at law, in any court of competent jurisdiction, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at Law or in equity, subject to a determination by a court of competent jurisdiction.

11.13 Further Assurances. Each Party hereto shall, at the reasonable request of the other Parties hereto, execute and deliver such further instruments and agreements and take such further action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the intent of this Agreement.

11.14 Time of Essence. With regard to all dates and time periods set forth or referred to in this Agreement, time is of the essence.
