MEMBERSHIP INTEREST PURCHASE AGREEMENT

THIS MEMBERSHIP INTEREST PURCHASE AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is dated as of May 1, 2015, by and among Thor Industries, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Buyer”), and Postle Aluminum Company, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Seller”). The Buyer and the Seller are sometimes respectively referred to as “Party”, and collectively referred to as the “Parties.” Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not otherwise defined are defined in Section 7.1.

RECITALS

1. The Seller is the sole owner of Postle Operating, LLC, an entity that extrudes aluminum and distributes aluminum extrusions and steel parts (the “Business”).

2. The Seller desires to sell to the Buyer, and the Buyer desires to purchase from the Seller, all of the issued and outstanding membership units of the Company (collectively the “Company Interests”) for the consideration set forth below, on the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement.

3. The Seller further agrees to assign to the Buyer certain other rights and interests, including, but not limited to, the rights in the name “Postle” and any other intangible rights owned by the Seller.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the representations, warranties, covenants, and agreements contained in this Agreement and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:

Article 1. THE T RANSACTION

Section 1.1 Purchase and Sale of Company Interests; Other Actions. On the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, at the Closing (as defined below), the Seller shall sell, transfer, convey, assign, and deliver to the Buyer, and the Buyer shall purchase, acquire, and accept from the Seller, the Company Interests. Immediately prior to the Closing, the Seller shall assign and transfer to the Company: (a) the Employee Non-Competes; (b) all other contracts, rights and other general intangibles owned or held by Seller and used in the Business; and (c) all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of Postle Real Estate, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (together, the “Assignments”). At the Closing, the Seller shall deliver to the Buyer evidence that the Assignments have been consummated, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Buyer.

Section 1.2 Purchase Price. The purchase price to be paid by the Buyer to the Seller by electronic wire to be released prior to 10:00 a.m. on the Closing Date for the Company Interests shall be One Hundred Forty Million Dollars ($140,000,000.00) (the “Closing Purchase Price). The Closing Purchase Price shall be subject to adjustment as set forth in Section 1.4 below (as adjusted, the “Purchase Price”). At Closing, One Hundred Thirty-Five Million Dollars ($135,000,000.00) of the Closing Purchase Price, plus the amount of the Estimated Cash Balance

MEMBERSHIP INTEREST PURCHASE AGREEMENT |  | 1

(which may be a positive or a negative number) (the “Cash Payment”) shall be paid by the Buyer by wire transfer to the accounts designated by the Seller in Exhibit 1.2 hereof and Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.00) of the Closing Purchase Price (the “Escrow Amount”) shall be paid by the Buyer to JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. (the “Escrow Agent”) to be held pursuant to the provisions of Section 1.5 (the “Escrow”).

Section 1.3 Target Net Assets. The Target Net Assets shall be Forty-Four Million Six Hundred Thirty-Three Thousand Six Hundred Thirty-Five Dollars ($44,633,635.00) (the “Target Net Assets”). Net Assets were, and for the post-closing adjustment shall be, determined and calculated using the practices, policies and methodologies described on the attached Exhibit 1.3. To the extent that Exhibit 1.3 does not address any procedure necessary for the post-closing adjustment, then such procedures shall be determined using the past practices of the Seller provided that such practices are in accordance with GAAP. To the extent that such past practices are not consistent with GAAP, then GAAP shall govern.

Section 1.4 Purchase Price Adjustment; Cash Balance Adjustment.

(a) The Seller shall deliver to the Buyer the Seller’s good faith estimate of (i) the Net Assets (the “Estimated Net Assets”) on or before April 27, 2015, and (ii) the Actual Cash Balance (the “Estimated Cash Balance”) at least two (2) days prior to the Closing, in each case, as of the Effective Time, along with the Seller’s backup for Estimated Net Assets and Estimated Cash Balance and any additional related materials as the Buyer may reasonably request. The Cash Payment shall be (i) increased dollar-for-dollar by the amount by which the Estimated Net Assets exceeds the Target Net Assets or (ii) decreased dollar-for-dollar by the amount by which the Estimated Net Assets is less than the Target Net Assets.

(b) As promptly as practicable, but no later than sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, the Seller will cause to be prepared and delivered to the Buyer a certificate (the “Closing Certificate”) setting forth the Seller’s calculation of the Net Assets as of the Effective Time (the “Closing Net Assets”) and the Actual Cash Balance, which, as applicable, shall be prepared in accordance with the practices outlined in Section 1.3. The Closing Certificate shall present fairly in all Material respects the Net Assets of the Company and the Actual Cash Balance as of the Effective Time. The Buyer and the Company will assist the Seller in the preparation of the Closing Certificate and will provide the Seller and the Seller’s independent accountants and other representatives access at all reasonable times to the Company’s personnel and properties, books, and records for such purpose. The Buyer shall have thirty (30) days from the date on which the Closing Certificate is due or delivered to Buyer, whichever is later, to review the certificate (the “Review Period”). The Buyer and its accountants and/or other representatives shall be provided with customary access to the work papers of the Seller and its accountants in connection with such review, subject to the execution of customary confidentiality and other undertakings. If the Buyer disagrees in any respect with any item or amount shown or reflected in the Closing Certificate or with the calculation of the Closing Net Assets and/or the Actual Cash Balance, the Buyer may, on or prior to the last day of the Review Period, deliver a notice to the Seller setting forth, in reasonable detail, each disputed item or amount the (“Disputed Items”) and the basis for the Buyer’s disagreement therewith (the “Dispute Notice”). The Dispute Notice shall set forth, in reasonable detail the Buyer’s position as to the proper Closing Net Assets and Actual

MEMBERSHIP INTEREST PURCHASE AGREEMENT |  | 2

Cash Balance. If no Dispute Notice is received by the Seller on or prior to the last day of the Review Period, the Closing Certificate shall be deemed accepted by the Buyer, whereupon (i) the Closing Net Assets reflected on the Closing Certificate shall be deemed to be the “Final Net Assets,” (ii) the Actual Cash Balance shall be deemed final, and (iii) the Buyer or the Seller, as the case may be, will pay to the other Party the amounts owing in accordance with Section 1.4(e) hereof. In the event that the Buyer timely delivers a Dispute Notice to the Seller, the Buyer or the Seller, as the case may be, will pay to the other Party any undisputed portion of the amount determined under Section 1.4(b) (the “Undisputed Amount”). Unless otherwise agreed, all Undisputed Amounts shall be paid on the 5th Business Day following the expiration of the Review Period or the 5th Business Day after the Parties agree that any item is an Undisputed Amount, whichever date is later.

(c) For fourteen (14) days after the Seller’s receipt of a Dispute Notice, if any, the Parties shall endeavor in good faith to resolve by mutual agreement all Disputed Items. In the event that the Parties are unable to resolve by mutual agreement all Disputed Items within such 14-day period, the Buyer and the Seller hereby agree that they shall engage RSM McGladrey LLP or such other firm as the parties may mutually agree upon in writing (the “Independent Accounting Firm”) to resolve the remaining Disputed Items. The Seller and the Buyer shall submit the remaining Disputed Items, together with such arguments as either of them choose to make in support of only the Disputed Items, in writing to the Independent Accounting Firm within twenty (20) days after the Independent Accounting Firm’s engagement or such longer period as mutually agreed to by the Parties.

(d) The Seller and the Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Independent Accounting Firm to resolve the remaining Disputed Items based upon the materials submitted to it pursuant to the last sentence of Section 1.4(c) within thirty (30) days following the submission of such materials. The Independent Accounting Firm shall determine, based solely on presentations by the Seller and the Buyer, and not by independent review, only those unresolved issues in dispute specifically set forth in the Dispute Notice and shall render a written report to the Seller and the Buyer (the “Adjustment Report”) in which the Independent Accounting Firm shall, after considering all unresolved matters set forth in the Dispute Notice, determine what adjustments, if any, should be made to the Closing Certificate solely as to the unresolved Disputed Items and shall determine the appropriate Final Net Assets and Actual Cash Balance on that basis. The Adjustment Report shall set forth, in reasonable detail, the Independent Accounting Firm’s determination with respect to each of the remaining Disputed Items or other unresolved amounts specified in the Dispute Notice, and the revisions, if any, to be made to the Closing Certificate and the Closing Net Assets, together with supporting calculations. In resolving any Disputed Item, the Independent Accounting Firm: (i) shall be bound to the principles of this Agreement, including those stated in this Section 1.4, (ii) shall limit its review to unresolved matters specifically set forth in the Dispute Notice, and (iii) shall not assign a value to any item higher than the highest value for such item claimed by either Party or less than the lowest value for such item claimed by either Party. The costs and fees related to such determination by the Independent Accounting Firm, including the costs relating to any negotiations with the Independent Accounting Firm with respect to the terms and conditions of such

MEMBERSHIP INTEREST PURCHASE AGREEMENT |  | 3

Independent Accounting Firm’s engagement, will be paid by the Buyer and the Seller on an inversely proportional basis, based upon the relative portions of the Disputed Items that have been submitted to the Independent Accounting Firm for resolution that ultimately are awarded in favor of the Buyer and the Seller (e.g., if $100,000 is in dispute, and of that amount the Independent Accounting Firm awards $75,000 in favor of the Buyer and $25,000 in favor of the Seller, then the Buyer will be responsible for 25%, and the Seller 75%, of the costs and fees), which proportionate allocation will also be determined by the Independent Accounting Firm and be included in the Adjustment Report. The Adjustment Report, absent fraud, shall be final and binding upon the Buyer and the Seller, shall be deemed a final arbitration award that is binding on each of the Buyer and the Seller, and no Party shall seek further recourse to courts, other tribunals or otherwise, other than to enforce to the Adjustment Report. Judgment may be entered to enforce the Adjustment Report in any court of competent jurisdiction.

(e) Effective upon the end of the Review Period (if a timely Dispute Notice is not delivered), or upon the resolution of all Disputed Items by mutual agreement of the Parties or by the issuance of the Adjustment Report (if a timely Dispute Notice is delivered):

(i) the Closing Purchase Price shall be (A) increased dollar-for-dollar by the amount by which the Final Net Assets exceeds the Estimated Net Assets or (B) decreased dollar-for-dollar by the amount by which the Final Net Assets is less than the Estimated Net Assets.

(ii) The Buyer shall be obligated to pay the Seller the amount by which the Actual Cash Balance exceeds the Estimated Cash Balance or the Seller shall be obligated to pay the Buyer the amount by which the Actual Cash Balance is less than the Estimated Cash Balance.

(iii) Any payment due as a result of an adjustment to the Closing Purchase Price or the Actual Cash Balance pursuant to this Section 1.4 shall be paid by the Buyer or the Seller, as the case may be, as follows:

(A) if a timely Dispute Notice is not delivered, on the fifth (5th) Business Day following the end of the Review Period, or

(B) if a timely Dispute Notice is delivered, (1) with respect to Undisputed Amounts paid pursuant to the last sentence of Section 1.4(b), on the fifth (5th) Business Day following the delivery of a Dispute Notice to the Seller, and (2) on the fifth (5th) Business Day following the resolution of all Disputed Items by mutual agreement of the Parties or on the fifth (5th) Business Day following the date on which the Adjustment Report has been received by the Seller and the Buyer less any payment made by the Buyer or the Seller, as the case may be, as described in (1) under this Section 1.4(e)(iii)(B).

Any such payments shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated by the Buyer or the Seller, as the case may be, at least two (2) Business Days prior to the applicable payment date. Any amounts payable by Seller under this Section 1.4 shall not be paid from the Escrow.

MEMBERSHIP INTEREST PURCHASE AGREEMENT |  | 4

(f) Immediately following the Closing, the Company shall commence a complete physical identification of its inventory and count thereof as of the Closing. The Seller and the Buyer, and each of their respective representatives and accountants, shall be entitled (i) to have unrestricted access to observe, and make inquiries with regard to, the foregoing inventory count, and (ii) to test and sample such inventory during the course of such inventory count. Any disagreement between the Parties with respect to the inventory count, but not the value of such inventory, shall be resolved at the time of the inventory count, subject to the ability of the Seller to provide an inventory count listing as of the end of the inventory count procedures on that date. This inventory count will be utilized by the Parties in the determination of the Closing Net Assets. The Buyer and the Seller agree to use their commercially reasonable efforts to adjust any inventory count that is, or appears to be, incorrect based on a review of the inventory compilation prepared by the Company utilizing the counts from the inventory count procedures. Such count shall not prejudice any Party’s ability to set, dispute or adjust the value of such inventory in connection with the calculation of the Final Net Assets.

Section 1.5 Escrow. Prior to 10:00 a.m. on the Closing Date, the Buyer shall deliver by electronic wire in an amount equal to the Escrow Amount to the Escrow Agent for deposit into an escrow account (the “Escrow Account”) established pursuant to the terms of an escrow agreement in the form attached to this Agreement as Exhibit 1.5 among the Buyer, the Seller, and the Escrow Agent (the “Escrow Agreement”). The Escrow Amount shall be held in an interest-bearing account pursuant to the Escrow Agreement and, together with all income earned thereon, will serve as security to satisfy claims for indemnity pursuant to Article 4 and any other obligations of the Seller allowable under this Agreement. The Escrow Amount shall be disbursed in accordance with the Escrow Agreement.

Section 1.6 The Closing.

(a) The closing of the purchase and sale of the Company Interests contemplated herein (the “Closing”) shall take place at Thor Industries, Inc., 601 East Beardsley, Elkhart, IN, on May 1, 2015, or at such place or other date as the Parties may mutually agree in writing (the “Closing Date”).

Section 4.5 Limitations.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, each of the following limitations shall apply to any claim for indemnification under this Section 4:

(i) the Seller shall have no liability to the Buyer Indemnified Persons pursuant to this Article 4 (other than in respect of any Breaches of representations contained in Sections 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, and 2.4 of this Agreement) until the aggregate amount of all alleged Damages resulting therefrom exceed an amount equal to one-half of one percent (0.5%) of the Purchase Price and then indemnity shall attach to the first dollar of the indemnified claim(s); and

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Buyer shall not be entitled to make any claim for indemnification with respect to any matter to the extent the Closing Purchase Price has been adjusted to reflect such matter pursuant to Section 1.4, and the amount of any Damages for which indemnification is provided under this Article 4 shall be calculated net of any accruals, reserves, or provisions reflected in the Final Net Assets that is applicable to the matter for which the accrual, reserve, or provision was created.

MEMBERSHIP INTEREST PURCHASE AGREEMENT |  | 21

or certificate delivered in connection with this Agreement, or any Legal Requirement or otherwise (other than claims of fraud) shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in Article 4. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Legal Requirements, any and all rights, claims and causes of action it or any of its Affiliates may have against the other Party arising under or based upon this Agreement and any document or certificate delivered in connection with this Agreement, any Legal Requirement or otherwise (except pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in Article 4).

Any indemnity payment under this Agreement shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes, unless a final determination (which shall include the execution of a Form 870-AD or successor form) with respect to the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates causes any such payment not to be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for United States federal income Tax purposes.

Article 5. TAX M ATTERS

The following provisions shall govern the allocation of responsibility as between the Buyer and the Seller for certain Tax matters following the Closing Date.

Section 5.1 Tax Indemnification. The Seller shall indemnify the Company and the Buyer indefinitely and hold them harmless from and against (a) all Taxes (or the non-payment thereof) of the Company for all taxable periods ending before the Closing Date and the portion thereof through the end of the Closing Date for any taxable period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date (“Pre-Closing Tax Period”), except to the extent that such Taxes were taken into account in the calculation of the Final Net Assets or arise from a transaction occurring after the Closing, (b) any and all Taxes for the Pre-Closing Tax Period of any member of an affiliated, consolidated, combined, or unitary group of which the Company (or any predecessor of any of the foregoing) is or was a member prior to the Closing, including pursuant to Treasury Regulation § 1.1502-6 or any analogous or similar state, local, or foreign law or regulation, and (c) any and all Taxes of any Person (other than the Company) imposed on the Company as a transferee or successor, by contract, or pursuant to any Legal Requirement if such Taxes relate to an event or transaction occurring before the Closing and such relationship existed prior to the Closing. The indemnity provided in this Section 5.1 is not subject to the limitations contained in Article 4 hereof; provided, however, that the Seller’s obligations under this Section 5.1 shall not, in any event, exceed the Purchase Price.

Section 5.2 Straddle Period. In the case of any taxable period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date (a “Straddle Period”), the amount of any Taxes for the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be determined based on an interim closing of the books as of the close of business on the Closing Date.

MEMBERSHIP INTEREST PURCHASE AGREEMENT |  | 22

Section 5.3 Responsibility for Filing Tax Returns.

(a) The Seller shall prepare or cause to be prepared and cause to be timely filed all Tax Returns for the Company that are filed after the Closing Date that pertain to periods prior to the Closing Date. Upon completion of such Tax Returns for the Company that pertain to periods prior to the Closing Date, the Seller shall pay to the Buyer (through the use of the Escrow, if available), any Tax payments due on such returns except to the extent that such Taxes were taken into account in the calculation of the Final Net Assets. Buyer shall then remit or cause to be remitted all Taxes in respect of such Tax Returns payable after the Closing Date. The Seller shall permit the Buyer to review and comment on each Tax Return described in the preceding sentence for a period of up to ten (10) days prior to filing and shall make such revisions of such Tax Returns as are reasonably requested by the Buyer’s Representative.

(b) The Buyer shall prepare or cause to be prepared and cause to be timely filed all Tax Returns for the Company for each Straddle Period. The Buyer shall permit the Seller to review and comment on each Tax Return described in the preceding sentence for a period of up to ten (10) days prior to filing and shall make such revisions to such Tax Returns as are reasonably requested by the Seller. In the event of a dispute between the Parties with respect to any item on any such Tax Return, the Parties shall act in good faith to resolve any such dispute prior to the date on which such Tax Return is required to be filed. The Buyer agrees to file all permitted extensions of time to file such Tax Return as shall be reasonably required to allow any such dispute to be resolved. If the Parties hereto cannot resolve any disputed item, the item or items in question shall be resolved in a manner similar to that set forth in Section 1.4(c) and Section 1.4(d) hereof. Upon completion of such Tax Returns, Seller shall pay to Buyer (through the use of Escrow funds established hereunder, if available), the portion of the Tax payments due on such returns that relate to the Pre-Closing Tax Period, except to the extent such Taxes were taken into account in the calculation of the Final Net Assets. Buyer shall then pay all Taxes due in respect of such Tax Returns.

(c) The parties acknowledge that the Company shall be disregarded as a separate entity for federal and applicable state income Tax purposes (before and during the Closing) and will not be filing income Tax Returns with respect to such income Taxes (so that, for the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.3 shall not apply to Tax Returns for Taxes that are income or franchise Taxes).

Section 5.4 Refunds and Tax Benefits. Any Tax refunds that are received by the Buyer or the Company, and any amounts credited against Tax to which the Buyer or the Company become entitled, that relate to Tax periods or portions thereof ending before the Closing Date shall be for the account of the Seller. The Buyer shall promptly notify the Seller in writing of any Tax refund(s) received by or payable to the Company after the Closing that relate to Tax periods or portions thereof ending before the Closing Date.

The Buyer shall cooperate, and cause the Company to cooperate, in obtaining any refund that the Seller reasonably believes should be available, including without limitation, through filing appropriate forms with the applicable Taxing Authorities. Any costs incurred in the pursuit of such returns for the benefit of the Seller shall be the responsibility of the Seller.

Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other Party’s request) the provision of records and information that are reasonably relevant to any such audit or other Proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. The Parties agree (i) to retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Company relating to any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until the expiration of the statute of limitations (and, to the extent notified by the Buyer or the Seller, any extensions thereof) of the respective taxable periods, and to abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any Taxing Authority (any such agreements are listed in Schedule 5.5(a) hereof), and (ii) to give the other Party reasonable written notice prior to transferring, destroying, or discarding any such books and records and, if the other Party so requests, the Buyer or the Seller, as the case may be, shall allow the other Party to take possession of such books and records.

(b) The Seller shall have the sole right to represent the Company’s interests in any audit or examination (“Tax Audit”) or Proceeding by any Taxing Authority with respect to Tax periods or portions thereof ending before the Closing Date and to employ counsel of its choice at its expense. In the case of a Straddle Period, the Seller shall be entitled to participate at its expense in any Tax Audit or Proceeding relating in any part to Taxes attributable to the portion of such Straddle Period deemed to end before the Closing Date and, with the written consent of the Buyer (which shall not be unreasonably withheld), at the Seller’s sole expense, may assume the control of such entire Tax Audit or Proceeding. Neither the Buyer (or its Affiliates) nor the Seller (or its Affiliates) may settle or otherwise dispose of any Tax Audit or Proceeding for which the other party may have a liability under this Agreement or retroactive or prospective tax consequence, or which may result in an increase in either’s liability under this Agreement, without the prior written consent of the affected party or affiliate, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld but which may be conditioned on indemnifying the affected party or affiliate with respect to such liability.

(c) The Buyer and the Seller further agree, upon request, to use their best efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any Governmental Authority or any other Person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce, or eliminate any Tax that could be imposed (including, but not limited to, with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby).

(d) The Buyer and the Seller further agree, upon request, to provide the other Party with all information that either Party may be required to report pursuant to Code § 6043, or Code § 6043A, or Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder.

(e) Neither the Buyer (or its Affiliates) nor the Seller (or its Affiliates) shall (or shall cause or permit the Company to) amend, re-file, or otherwise modify any Tax Return relating in whole or in part to the Company with respect to Tax periods or portions thereof ending before the Closing Date (or with respect to any Straddle Period)

MEMBERSHIP INTEREST PURCHASE AGREEMENT |  | 24

without the prior written consent of the other party’s representative, which consent may be withheld in the sole discretion of the representative, unless such modification does not result in any adverse Tax consequences to such other Party.

Section 5.6 Certain Taxes and Fees. All excise, sales, use, transfer, stamp, documentary, filing, recordation, and other similar taxes, together with any interest, additions, or penalties with respect thereto and any interest in respect of such additions or penalties (the “Transfer Taxes”), resulting from the transfer of the Company Interests pursuant to this Agreement shall be shared equally by the Buyer and the Seller. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Article 5 to the contrary, any Tax Returns that must be filed in connection with Transfer Taxes shall be prepared and timely filed by the Seller and the Seller shall provide the Buyer with a reasonable opportunity to review, and provide comments to, any such Tax Returns prior to filing any such Tax Returns.

If, in the absence of a protective order or the receipt of a waiver hereunder, a Party is, on the written advice of counsel, compelled to disclose any Information by judicial or administrative process, such Party may so disclose the Information; provided, however, that, at the written request of the disclosing Party, the receiving Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, at the expense of the disclosing Party an order or other assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such portion of the Information required to be disclosed.

The Buyer shall or shall cause the Company to meet any obligation under COBRA with respect to qualifying events occurring after the Closing.

The Buyer agrees that the Seller shall be entitled to all Tax benefits (including the benefit of any compensation deductions) associated with or otherwise related to the payment of the Employee Bonuses.

Either Party may change the address to which notices, requests, demands, claims, and other communications hereunder are to be delivered by giving the other Party notice in the manner herein set forth.

Section 7.10 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of laws of any jurisdiction other than those of the State of Delaware.

Section 7.11 Amendments and Waivers. The Parties may mutually amend or waive any provision of this Agreement at any time. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be valid unless the same shall be in writing and signed by each of the Parties. No waiver by either Party of any default, misrepresentation, or Breach of warranty or covenant hereunder, whether intentional or not, shall be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent default, misrepresentation, or Breach of warranty or covenant hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any prior or subsequent such occurrence.

Section 7.12 Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction. If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision hereof is invalid or unenforceable, the

MEMBERSHIP INTEREST PURCHASE AGREEMENT |  | 33

Parties agree that the body making the determination of invalidity or unenforceability shall have the power to reduce the scope, duration, or area of the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified after the expiration of the time within which the judgment may be appealed.

Section 7.13 Expenses. Except as otherwise specifically provided to the contrary in this Agreement, each of the Parties shall bear its own costs and expenses (including legal fees and expenses) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. For avoidance of doubt, the Parties acknowledge that the Seller will be permitted to allocate any of its costs and expenses to the Company prior to the Closing, and that such costs and expenses shall be paid at the Closing, provided such costs and expenses are actually paid at the Closing or appropriately reflected in the Financial Statements and the Final Net Assets.

Section 7.14 Specific Performance. Each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that the other Party would be damaged irreparably in the event any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or otherwise are breached. Accordingly, each of the Parties agrees that the other Party shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of the provisions of this Agreement and to enforce specifically this Agreement and the terms and provisions hereof in any action instituted in any court of the United States or any state thereof having jurisdiction over the Parties and the matter.

Section 7.15 Incorporation of Exhibits, Schedules, and Attachments. The Exhibits, Schedules, and Attachments identified in this Agreement are incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof.

Section 7.16 Submission to Jurisdiction. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, the Parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agree that any dispute arising from this Agreement or the transaction contemplated by this Agreement shall be submitted to binding arbitration, using the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association. The parties agree that they shall attempt in good faith to agree upon a single arbitrator to decide the matter. In the event that after a period of fifteen (15) days after receipt of the demand for arbitration the parties have failed to agree upon a single arbitrator, each party shall name a single arbitrator. The two named arbitrators shall then be responsible for identifying a third, neutral arbitrator who shall arbitrate such dispute. Any such arbitrator shall have significant experience in arbitrating disputes regarding mergers and acquisition transactions of a size and nature similar to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Unless otherwise agreed, in writing, by both parties, the arbitration shall take place in Elkhart Country, Indiana. Each Party shall be responsible for its own costs and fees in connection with such arbitration; provided, however, that the arbitrator may award the prevailing party in such arbitration reasonable legal and other professional fees incurred in connection with such arbitration. The arbitrator shall deliver a reasoned award with respect to his or her findings and such award, absent fraud, manifest error or bad faith, shall be deemed a final arbitration award that is binding on each of the Buyer and the Seller. Judgment may be entered to enforce such award in any court of competent jurisdiction.
