2. AGREEMENT FOR TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE

2.1. Transfer and Exchange. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, Seller shall transfer to Apollo LNG, and Apollo LNG shall acquire from Seller, the Units in exchange for (the “Exchange Consideration”) (i) Twelve Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($12,500,000.00) in Series A $1.00 par value 8.5% cumulative non-voting convertible preferred stock in Apollo LNG (the “Series A Stock”); and (ii) Twelve Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($12,500,000.00) in Series B $1.00 par value 8.5% cumulative non-voting convertible preferred stock in Apollo LNG (the “Series B Stock”) (collectively, the Series A Stock and the Series B Stock shall be referred to herein as the “Apollo LNG Stock”).

(a) Seller shall assign, transfer and deliver to Apollo LNG the Units representing 100% of the total membership units in ALT and shall represent to Apollo LNG that there are no additional membership units in ALT of any nature or of any category and shall deliver an assignment of the Units in form and substance acceptable to counsel for Apollo LNG; and

(b) Apollo LNG shall accept and acquire the Units from Seller and in exchange therefor, shall deliver to Seller and to Ken Kelley the Apollo LNG Stock, which shall be composed of 12,500,000 shares of Series A Stock and 12,500,000 shares of Series B Stock, each of which is non-voting and each share of which shall be convertible according to the terms in Section 2.2 hereof.

The Apollo LNG Stock delivered by Apollo LNG shall be apportioned between Seller and Ken Kelley as follows: Series A Stock, 10,125,000 shares allocable to Seller and 2,375,000 shares allocable to Ken Kelley, in consideration for the Ken Kelley Goodwill, and Series B Stock, 10,125,000 shares allocable to Seller, and 2,375,000 allocable to Ken Kelley, in consideration for the Ken Kelley Goodwill.

(c) Apollo shall deliver a cash payment to Apollo LNG, and Apollo LNG shall deliver to Apollo, 25,000,000 shares of the voting common stock of Apollo LNG, constituting 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Apollo LNG.

2.2. Rights, Preferences, Privileges, and Attributes of Apollo LNG Preferred Stock.

(a) The Apollo LNG Stock shall bear a cumulative cash dividend in the amount of 8.50% annually, which dividend shall commence to accrue upon the first anniversary of the Closing Date, and shall accrue from day to day thereafter, whether or not earned or declared, it being understood that no dividend shall accrue or shall be payable for the period from the Closing Date until the first anniversary thereof. The dividend shall be payable commencing on the last day of the eighteenth (18^th) month following the Closing Date and shall be payable semi-annually thereafter (the “Dividend Payment Dates”). Dividends shall cease to accrue upon Apollo LNG Stock that has been converted as provided for below.

(b) Commencing upon the Closing and continuing thereafter until the second (2^nd) anniversary after the Closing, Seller and Ken Kelley may, at their sole option and without an obligation to do so, convert at any time all, but not less than all, of the Series A Stock into voting common stock, par value $0.01, in Apollo LNG (the “Series A Conversion Rights”), that shall represent forty-nine percent (49.00%) of the total issued and outstanding common stock of Apollo LNG at the time of conversion.

(c) Commencing upon the Closing and continuing thereafter until the second (2^nd) anniversary after the Closing, each Seller and Ken Kelley may, at their sole option and without an obligation to do so, at any time and from time to time, convert all, or any portion thereof, of the Series B Stock held by them into voting common stock in Apollo (the “Series B Conversion Rights”) at a conversion price of $0.40 per share of Apollo common stock, regardless of the actual market price of such Apollo common stock (along with the time period as described in Section 2.2(b) hereof, this period of time shall be referred to herein as the “Conversion Period”)(collectively, the Series A Conversion Rights and the Series B Conversion Rights shall be referred to herein as the “Conversion Rights”). Therefore (for purposes of illustration and assuming that all dividends payable as of the date of conversion have been paid), each share of Series B Stock may be exchanged for two and one-half (2-1/2) shares of Apollo voting common stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller and Ken Kelley may not exercise their Series B Conversion Rights in a combined total of more than five (5) increments during the Conversion Period. Upon the exercise by a Seller or by Ken Kelley, or by either of them, as the case may be, of all or any portion of their Conversion Rights, all accrued dividends then outstanding shall, in the sole judgment and discretion of Apollo LNG, be promptly paid to such Seller or to Ken Kelley, as the case may be, in either (i) cash; or (ii) Apollo registered common stock valued at the average closing price of such stock over the most immediate five (5) trading day period prior to the exercise of the Conversion Rights by Apollo LNG and further discounted by a factor of thirty percent (30%).

The initial Series B Stock conversion price of $0.40 per share of Apollo common stock shall be subject to adjustment as follows:

(i) If Apollo shall effect a stock split of its outstanding common stock, the conversion price per share of Apollo common stock in effect immediately prior to the stock split shall be proportionately decreased. If Apollo shall combine the outstanding shares of its common stock, the conversion price per share of

Apollo common stock in effect immediately prior to the combination shall be proportionately increased. Any such adjustment shall be effective at the close of business on the date the stock split or combination occurs.

(ii) If Apollo shall make or issue or set a record date for the determination of holders of its outstanding common stock entitled to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in shares of Apollo common stock, the conversion price per share of Apollo common stock in effect immediately prior to such event shall be decreased as of the time of such issuance or, in the event such record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on such record date, by multiplying the conversion price per share of Apollo common stock then in effect by a fraction:

(1) the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Apollo common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date; and

(2) the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Apollo common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date plus the number of shares of Apollo common stock issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution.

(iii) If Apollo shall make or issue or set a record date for the determination of holders of Apollo common stock entitled to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in other than shares of Apollo common stock, then, and in each event, an appropriate revision to the conversion price per share of Apollo common stock shall be made and provision shall be made (by adjustments of the conversion price or otherwise) so that the holders of the Series B Stock shall receive upon conversions thereof, in addition to the number of shares of Apollo common stock receivable thereon, the number of securities of Apollo which they would have received had the Series B Stock been converted into common stock on the date of such event; provided, however, that if such record date shall have been fixed and such dividend is not fully paid or if such distribution is not fully made on the date fixed therefor, the conversion price per share of Apollo common stock shall be adjusted as of the time of actual payment of such dividends or distributions

(iv) If there shall be (1) a capital reorganization of Apollo (other than by way of a stock split or combination of shares or stock dividends or distributions provided for above), or (2) a merger or consolidation of Apollo with or into another corporation where the holders of outstanding Apollo voting securities prior to such merger or consolidation do not own over fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding voting securities of the merged or consolidated entity immediately after such merger or consolidation, or (3) the sale of all or substantially all of Apollo’s properties or assets to any other person (an “Organic Change”) then as a part of such Organic Change, an appropriate adjustment to the

conversion price shall be made so that the Series B Stock shall thereafter convert into the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities or property of Apollo or any successor corporation resulting from such Organic Change.

(v) If the common stock issuable upon conversion of Series B Stock at any time or from time to time after the issuance date shall be changed to the same or different number of shares of any class or classes of stock, whether by reclassification, exchange, substitution or otherwise (other than by way of a stock split or combination of shares or stock dividends provided for in Sections 2.2(c)(i), 2.2(c)(ii), and 2.2(c)(iii), or a reorganization, merger, consolidation, or sale of assets provided for in Section 2.2(c)(iv)), then, and in each event, an appropriate revision to the conversion price per share shall be made and provisions shall be made (by adjustments of the conversion price per share or otherwise) so that the Seller and Ken Kelley shall have the right thereafter to convert the Series B Stock into the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities receivable upon reclassification, exchange, substitution or other change, by holders of the number of shares of common stock into which the Series B Stock might have been converted immediately prior to such reclassification exchange, substitution or other change.

(d) In the event that Apollo LNG shall default on the payment of any dividend as described in this Section 2.2, upon written notice to Apollo LNG from Seller or Ken Kelley of such default, Apollo LNG shall thereafter have a period of ten (10) days to cure such default by making a cash payment to Seller and/or to Ken Kelley as may be appropriate in the amount of the default ( the “Apollo LNG Cure Period”) and thereafter (A) Apollo LNG may, for an additional period of five (5) Business Days following the Apollo LNG Cure Period, cure the default by delivering to Seller or to Ken Kelley as the case may be, Apollo common stock in the amount of the default [the amount of Apollo stock to be delivered to Seller or to Ken Kelley shall be determined by the average closing price of such stock over the most immediate five (5) trading day period prior to the date of such default discounted by thirty percent (30%) (the “Apollo LNG Cure”)];or (B) in the event that Apollo LNG shall not have accomplished the Apollo LNG Cure within five (5) Business Days after the expiration of the Apollo LNG Cure Period, the Apollo LNG Stock shall immediately be vested with full voting rights, in addition to the voting rights described in Section 2.2(e) below (the “Additional Voting Rights”). In such event, the holders of the Apollo LNG Stock shall be vested with full voting rights for ninety percent (90%) of the total voting rights in Apollo LNG. For the avoidance of doubt, it is expressly understood and agreed that such 90% voting rights shall include the right to remove and replace directors immediately, without cause, and to elect directors, and to vote upon or approve any other matter that may be voted on by the holders of common stock or other voting stock in Apollo LNG. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the financial default and the obligation to pay dividends shall continue to be an obligation of Apollo LNG. If the default is fully cured by the payment of all amounts due, within ninety (90) days from the expiration of the Apollo LNG Cure Period, the Additional Voting Rights shall terminate.

(e) In addition to the matters described above, the designations, rights, preferences, privileges, and attributes of the Apollo LNG Stock are as follows:

(i) If all dividends on the Apollo LNG Stock from the date from which such dividends on such shares began to accrue have not been paid when due, the deficiency must be fully paid, together with additional dividends (the “Additional Dividends”) to reflect amounts equivalent to interest on accrued but unpaid dividends at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum, before any dividends may be declared or any distribution whatsoever made on or with respect to the Apollo LNG common stock or any other capital stock of Apollo LNG. After full dividends on the Apollo LNG Stock shall have been paid, then and not otherwise, dividends may be paid or declared and set apart for payment upon the Apollo LNG common stock, or other capital stock of Apollo LNG, out of any funds legally available for the declaration of dividends.

(ii) Apollo LNG, at its option, may, but is not so obligated, redeem, at any time or from time to time commencing on the first day of the termination of the Conversion Period and continuing at all times thereafter, the whole or any part of the Apollo LNG Stock outstanding by paying in cash to the holders of such shares to be redeemed, $1.00 per share, plus an amount in cash equivalent to the amount of all accrued and unpaid dividends (including any Additional Dividends), computed from the date from which dividends on each such share began to accrue and cumulate to the date fixed for such redemption. Notice of redemption must be given at least ten (10) days and not more than thirty (30) days prior to the date fixed for such redemption. Such redemptions shall be made ratably between the Series A Stock and the Series B Stock, and shall also be made ratably with respect to the Apollo LNG Stock held by Ken Kelley and the Apollo LNG Stock held by Seller.

(iii) In the event of any termination, liquidation, voluntary or involuntary dissolution, or winding up of the affairs of Apollo LNG, then, before any payment or distribution may be made to the holders of the common stock or any other capital stock of Apollo LNG, the holders of the Apollo LNG Stock at the time outstanding must be paid, in cash, $1.00 per share, plus an amount in cash equivalent to all accrued and unpaid dividends (including Additional Dividends) computed from the date from which dividends on each such share began to accrue and cumulate to the date fixed for such payments or distributions to the holders of any other capital stock Apollo LNG Stock.

(iv) Except to the extent and in the cases specifically required by Law or required or permitted by this Agreement, the holders of the Apollo LNG Stock will have no voting rights and all voting rights and power shall be vested exclusively in the holders of the common stock of Apollo LNG.

(v) So long as any shares of the Apollo LNG Stock are outstanding, Apollo LNG shall not, without the affirmative consent (given in writing without a meeting or by vote at a meeting duly called for the purpose) of the holders of at least two-thirds (2/3) in aggregate par value of the Apollo LNG Stock then outstanding:

(1) Alter, amend or repeal the terms of the Apollo LNG Stock;

(2) Issue or create any class of stock which ranks on a parity with, or prior to the Apollo LNG Stock in respect of dividends, assets, liquidation rights, preferences, privileges, or voting rights;

(3) Reclassify shares of any class ranking junior to the Apollo LNG Stock in respect of dividends, assets, liquidation rights, preferences, voting rights or privileges, wholly or partially into shares of any class ranking on a parity with or prior to the Apollo LNG Stock in respect of dividends, assets, liquidation rights, preferences, voting rights, or privileges;

(4) License on an exclusive basis or sell all or substantially all of its property and assets to, or merge or consolidate into or with, any other corporation or entity, or take any action which results in a corporate reorganization or sale of control;

(5) Redeem any shares of capital stock, other than the Apollo LNG Stock, or authorize a payment of a dividend upon any class of stock, other than the Apollo LNG Stock.

(vi) Promptly following January 1, 2006, Apollo LNG shall file appropriate amendments to its articles of incorporation setting forth, as contemplated under the Texas Business Organizations Code, a description of the preferences, limitations, and rights of the Apollo LNG Stock.

6. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

6.1. Warranties and Representations of Seller. In order to induce Apollo LNG to enter into this Agreement, Neptune and Golden Spread, jointly and severally, covenant, warrant and represent to Apollo and Apollo LNG that each of the following representations and warranties are materially true and correct as of the date of this Agreement and will be materially true on and as of the Closing Date:

(a) Organization and Licensing. ALT is a limited liability company duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and has the power to own, lease and use the properties used in its business and to carry on its business as now being conducted. ALT is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation in each state and jurisdiction where qualification as a foreign corporation is required, except to the extent that any variation or failure thereof does not have a Material Adverse Effect . Schedule 6.1(a) lists (i) the states and other jurisdictions where ALT is so qualified; and (ii) the assumed names under which ALT conducts business or has conducted business during the past five (5) years. All permits, licenses and certificates required by any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over ALT or its operations, are now and will be current and valid as of the Closing Date. ALT has previously delivered or made available to Apollo complete and correct copies of its certificate of formation, limited liability company agreement, and other organizational documents as amended and presently in effect.

Each of Neptune and Golden Spread has full power and authority to enter into this Agreement, to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and to perform, or to cause ALT to perform, their or its obligations hereunder. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein by Seller have been duly authorized by all requisite corporate action on the part of Neptune and of Golden Spread. This Agreement has been (and the Collateral Agreements to which they are a party, when executed and delivered shall be) duly executed and delivered by each of Neptune and of Golden Spread and is, and the Collateral Agreements, when executed and delivered, shall be, a valid and binding obligation of each of them, enforceable against them and in accordance with their terms, except to the extent that such enforceability (i) may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, or other similar Laws relating to creditors’ rights generally, and (ii) is subject to general principles of equity.

(b) Subsidiaries. Except as reflected on Schedule 6.1(b), ALT has no subsidiaries.

(c) Capitalization. The issued and outstanding Units of ALT are set forth in Schedule 6.1(c) hereto. The Units listed on Schedule 6.1(c) hereto constitute all the issued and outstanding membership interests of ALT and have been validly authorized and issued, are fully paid and nonassessable, and have not been issued in violation of any preemptive rights or of any federal or state securities Law. There is no security, option, warrant, right, call, subscription, agreement, commitment or understanding of any nature whatsoever, fixed or contingent, that directly or indirectly (i) calls for the issuance, sale, pledge or other disposition of any membership interests of ALT, or any securities convertible into, or other rights to acquire, any membership interests of ALT; or (ii) obligates ALT to grant, offer or enter into any of the foregoing; or (iii) relates to the voting or control of such membership interests, securities or rights, except as provided in this Agreement or the limited liability company agreement of ALT. ALT has not agreed to register any securities under the Securities Act of 1933.

(d) Governmental Approvals. Schedule 6.1(d) sets forth all Governmental Approvals held by ALT. To Seller’s Knowledge, no Governmental Approvals other than those listed on Schedule 6.1(d) are necessary for the transaction of ALT’s business as currently conducted. All such Governmental Approvals are currently in force. No notice of any violation has been received in respect of any such Governmental Approvals and Seller has no Knowledge of any proceeding which is pending or threatened that would suspend or revoke or limit any such Governmental Approvals.

(e) Employee Benefit Plans. The term “Employee Benefit Plan” shall mean any deferred compensation, stock, employee or retiree pension benefit, welfare benefit or other similar fringe or employee benefit plan, program, policy, contract or arrangement, written or oral, qualified or nonqualified, funded or unfunded, foreign or domestic, or any other plan described in the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”) covering employees or former employees of ALT and maintained or contributed to by ALT. Where applicable, each Employee Benefit Plan has been administered in material compliance with the terms of such Employee Benefit Plan and the requirements of ERISA and all other applicable regulations. Except as set forth on Schedule 6.1(e), ALT does not maintain or contribute to, nor has ever maintained or contributed to, any Employee Benefit Plan subject to Title IV of ERISA or a “multiemployer plan.” There are no facts relating to any Employee Benefit Plan that (i) have resulted in a “prohibited transaction” of a material nature or have resulted or are reasonably likely to result in the imposition of a material excise tax, penalty or liability pursuant to Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), (ii) have resulted in a material breach of fiduciary duty or violation of Part 4 of Title I of ERISA, or (iii) have resulted in or are reasonably likely to result in any material liability (whether or not asserted as of the date hereof) of any ERISA affiliate pursuant to Section 412 of the Code arising under or related to any event, act or omission occurring on or prior to the date hereof and as of the Closing. Each Employee Benefit Plan that is intended to qualify under Section 401(a) or to be exempt under Section 501(c) of the Code is so qualified or exempt. No Employee Benefit Plan has an “accumulated funding deficiency,” whether or not waived, and no waiver has been applied for. ALT has not made any promises or incurred any liability under any Employee Benefit Plan or otherwise to provide health or other welfare benefits to current or future retirees or other former employees of ALT, except as set forth in Schedule 6.1(e).

(f) Financial Statements. Attached as Schedule 6.1(f), are true and complete copies of (i) the audited balance sheet of ALT as of September 30, 2004 and the related statements of income, members’ equity and cash flow for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2004, together with the notes thereto and accompanied by the report of independent certified public accountants (the “Audited ALT Financial Statements”), and (ii) the preliminary, unaudited, unconsolidated balance sheet and related statement of income of ALT (the “Interim Financial Statements”) as of September 30, 2005 (the “Balance Sheet Date”). (The Audited ALT Financial Statements and the Interim Financial Statements are collectively referred to herein as the “ALT Financial Statements”).

The ALT Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with and are consistent with the books and records of ALT, fairly present the financial positions and results of operations of ALT (and, for the Audited ALT Financial Statements, ALT’s consolidated subsidiaries) as of the dates and for the periods indicated, are stated in material conformity with GAAP, consistently applied, except as otherwise clearly and conspicuously stated, and except that the Interim Financial Statements do not contain a full set of footnotes, and can be legitimately reconciled with the financial statements and with the financial records maintained and the accounting methods applied by ALT for federal income tax purposes. Except as set forth on Schedule 6.1(f), the statements of income included in the ALT Financial Statements do not contain any material items of special or non-recurring income except as expressly specified therein, and the balance sheets included in the ALT Financial Statements do not reflect any write-up or revaluation increasing the book value of any assets except as otherwise clearly and conspicuously stated therein. The books and accounts of ALT are complete and correct in all material respects and fairly reflect, to the extent required or permitted by GAAP, all of the transactions, items of income and expense and all assets and liabilities of the business of ALT consistent with prior practices of the company, including past accounting treatments utilized by ALT.

(g) Absence of Undisclosed Tax Liabilities. To Seller’s Knowledge, ALT has no liability (whether due or to become due, accrued, absolute, contingent or otherwise) for Taxes (as defined in Section 6.1(j) hereof), except for (i) liabilities reflected or reserved against in the most recent financial statements provided to Apollo by ALT; (ii) liabilities incurred in the Ordinary Course of Business after the date of the last ALT balance sheets as supplied to Apollo, or which, individually and in the aggregate, do not have and cannot reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; and (iii) liabilities disclosed in Schedule 6.1(g) or Schedule 6.1(j).

(h) Projections. ALT has previously supplied to Apollo in conjunction with Apollo’s investigation of ALT certain forward-looking financial estimates with respect to ALT (the “Projections”), a description of which is attached here as Schedule 6.1(h). The Projections (and accompanying supporting information), were predicated upon assumptions and subjective judgments (including those provided with the Projections) believed by Seller to be reasonable at the time the Projections were prepared, but which may or may not, in fact, prove to be correct. No representations or warranties are made as to the accuracy of such Projections. The Projections and supporting data did not, to Seller’s Knowledge, contain any material computational errors. The Projections may in certain instances also contain information regarding the projected potential financial performance of assets and business activities in

addition to those of ALT. The Projections are subject to various risks, uncertainties, and other variable and unpredictable factors and accordingly, they are not intended to be construed as an assurance or guarantee that actual financial performance will, in any respect, be as indicated therein.

ALT has also furnished or made available to Apollo or its representatives correct and complete copies of all notices and correspondence sent or received since the formation of ALT by ALT to or from any federal, state or local Tax authorities. ALT has adequately reserved for the payment of all material Taxes with respect to periods ended on, prior to or through the date of Closing for which Tax returns have not yet been filed. In the ordinary course, ALT makes adequate provision on its books for the payment of all Taxes (including for the current fiscal period) owed by ALT.

All Improvements are supplied with utilities (including, without limitation, water, sewage, disposal, electricity, gas, and telephone) necessary for the operation of such Improvements as currently operated. Neither the whole nor any portion of the Improvements have been condemned, requisitioned or otherwise taken by any Governmental Authority, and Seller has not received any notice that any such condemnation, requisition, or taking is threatened, which condemnation, requisition, or taking would preclude or materially impair the current use thereof.

operating losses, credits or similar items). The present value will be calculated utilizing the prevailing interest rates established by the Internal Revenue Code.

(b) Apollo LNG and the Seller further agree, upon request, to use their Commercially Reasonable 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).

Apollo and Apollo LNG hereby agree to pay any Taxes payable by either HLDM, Neptune Leasing, Inc., or Golden Spread Energy, Inc., arising out of the transaction described in item 4 of Schedule 6.1(j); it being expressly agreed, in this respect, that if it is determined that the value of the settlement with El Paso Field Services, and/or the acquisition of Arizona LNG, L.L.C. was or is, now or in the future, taxable to HLDM or to Neptune Leasing, Inc. and Golden Spread Energy, Inc., then Apollo and Apollo LNG shall be responsible for the payment of such Taxes.

If Apollo LNG and Apollo are required to pay any such Tax, then, in such event Apollo LNG shall have the right to encumber the assets of Arizona LNG and ALT (the “Tax Lien”) for the purpose of borrowing the funds necessary to pay such Taxes.

determined in a court of competent jurisdiction by clear and convincing evidence that the actions taken or not taken by Seller’s Representative constituted actual fraud or were taken or not taken willfully in bad faith.

Any matter set forth in a Disclosure Schedule shall be deemed disclosure also for purposes of any other Sections or Disclosure Schedules in this Agreement to which it may relate. Failure to provide a cross reference to other applicable Sections contained in the Agreement or Disclosure Schedules shall not, however, be deemed a failure to disclose unless a reasonable person would be unable to determine that the disclosure contained in such Section or Disclosure Schedule contains enough information to qualify or otherwise apply to other representations, Sections or Disclosure Schedules contained in this Agreement.

10.19. Confidential Information. Prior to the Closing Date and thereafter if the Closing fails to occur, Apollo and its representatives and Sellers and their representatives will hold in strict confidence , all data and information obtained regarding the other, their assets, the operations, and financial status obtained in connection with this transaction and the terms of this Agreement.
