WHEREAS, Purchaser desires to purchase the Acquired Assets and assume the Assumed Liabilities from Sellers, and Sellers desire to sell, convey, assign, and transfer to Purchaser the Acquired Assets together with the Assumed Liabilities, in a sale (i) authorized by the Bankruptcy Court pursuant to, inter alia, sections 105, 363 and 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, in accordance with the other applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure and the local rules for the Bankruptcy Court, all on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Sale Order, and (ii) recognized by the Canadian Court in the Canadian Recognition Proceedings pursuant to the Canadian Sale Recognition Order.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the mutual representations, warranties, covenants, and agreements set forth herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the Parties hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

PURCHASE AND SALE OF ACQUIRED ASSETS;

ASSUMPTION OF ASSUMED LIABILITIES

1.1 Purchase and Sale of the Acquired Assets. Pursuant to sections 105, 363, and 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, in the Sale Order, and in the Canadian Sale Recognition Order, at the Closing, Sellers shall sell, transfer, assign, convey, and deliver to Purchaser or a Designated Purchaser, and Purchaser or a Designated Purchaser shall purchase, acquire, and accept from Sellers, all of Sellers’ right, title and interest in and to, as of the Closing, the Acquired Assets, free and clear of all Encumbrances other than Permitted Encumbrances. For the avoidance of doubt, the Acquired Assets shall be free and clear of any and all Employment Liabilities, pension liabilities, and successor liabilities of any kind. “Acquired Assets” means all of the Sellers’ right, title and interest, as of the Closing, in and to:

(a) the Owned Real Property of the Sellers set forth on Schedule 1.1(a) (the “Acquired Real Property”);

(b) the Contracts set forth on Schedule 1.1(b) (collectively, the “Assigned Contracts”);

(c) to the extent transferable under applicable Law, all of the rights, interests and benefits (if any) accruing under all Permits and Governmental Authorizations related to the Acquired Real Property, and all pending applications therefor;

Further notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, and without limiting any rights of Purchaser set forth in this Agreement, to the extent that any specific Acquired Asset located in Canada cannot be sold free and clear of any and all Employment Liabilities, pension liabilities, and successor liabilities of any kind (or such liabilities cannot be removed or released by operation

2

of the Sale Order), Purchaser may, at its sole and absolute discretion, remove such asset from the Acquired Assets prior to Closing with no corresponding reduction in the Purchase Price. For the avoidance of doubt, Sellers shall not be deemed to sell, transfer, assign, convey or deliver, and Purchaser shall not acquire, (i) any assets other than the Acquired Assets, (ii) any relationships, obligations, or liabilities in respect of any employees, suppliers, or customers of Sellers, (iii) any products or services in respect of Sellers’ business and (iv) any goodwill or intellectual property in respect to Sellers’ business.

1.3 Assumption of Certain Liabilities. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, in the Sale Order, and in the Canadian Sale Recognition Order, effective as of the Closing, in addition to the payment of the Cash Payment in accordance with Section 2.1, Purchaser or a Designated Purchaser shall irrevocably assume from each Seller (and from and after the Closing pay, perform, discharge, or otherwise satisfy in accordance with their respective terms), and Sellers shall irrevocably transfer, assign, convey, and deliver to Purchaser or a Designated Purchaser, only the following Liabilities, without duplication and only to the extent not paid prior to the Closing (collectively, the “Assumed Liabilities”):

(a) all Liabilities and obligations of any Seller under the Assigned Contracts that become due from and after the Closing;

(b) all cure costs required to be paid pursuant to section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code in connection with the assumption and assignment of the Assigned Contracts (the “Cure Costs”);

1.4 Excluded Liabilities. Purchaser and the Designated Purchaser(s) (if any) shall not assume, be obligated to pay, perform or otherwise discharge or in any other manner be liable or responsible for any Liabilities of, or Action against, any Seller of any kind or nature whatsoever, whether absolute, accrued, contingent or otherwise, liquidated or unliquidated, due or to become

3

due, known or unknown, currently existing or hereafter arising, matured or unmatured, direct or indirect, and however arising, whether existing on the Closing Date or arising thereafter as a result of any act, omission, or circumstances taking place prior to the Closing, other than the Assumed Liabilities (all such Liabilities that are not Assumed Liabilities being referred to collectively herein as the “Excluded Liabilities”). For the avoidance of doubt, all Liabilities under, associated with or with respect to any employee claim, former employee claim or claims from or related to any collective bargaining agreement, or corresponding or related pension plan obligation, under United States or Canadian Law are expressly excluded.

1.5 Assumption/Rejection of Certain Contracts.

(a) Assumption and Assignment of Executory Contracts. Sellers shall provide timely and proper written notice of the motion seeking entry of the Sale Order, and, as applicable, the Canadian Sale Recognition Order, to all parties to any executory Contracts or unexpired leases to which any Seller is a party that are Assigned Contracts and take all other actions reasonably necessary to cause such Contracts to be assumed by Sellers and assigned to Purchaser or a Designated Purchaser pursuant to section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, and, as applicable, the CCAA, to the extent that such Contracts are Assigned Contracts at Closing. The Sale Order shall provide that as of and conditioned on the occurrence of the Closing, the applicable Sellers shall assume and assign or cause to be assigned to Purchaser or a Designated Purchaser, as applicable, the Assigned Contracts, each of which shall be identified by the name or appropriate description and date of the Assigned Contract (if available), the other party to the Assigned Contract and the address of such party for notice purposes, all included in a notice filed with the Bankruptcy Court. Such notice shall also set forth Sellers’ good faith estimate of the amounts necessary to cure any defaults under each of the Assigned Contracts as determined by Sellers based on their books and records or as otherwise determined by the Bankruptcy Court. At the Closing, Sellers shall, pursuant to the Sale Order, and the Assignment and Assumption Agreement(s) assume and assign to Purchaser or Designated Purchaser (the consideration for which is included in the Purchase Price), all Assigned Contracts that may be assigned by any such Seller to Purchaser pursuant to sections 363 and 365 of the Bankruptcy Code and, as applicable, the CCAA. At the Closing, Purchaser or a Designated Purchaser shall (i) pay all Cure Costs and (ii) assume, and thereafter in due course and in accordance with its respective terms pay, fully satisfy, discharge and perform all of the obligations under each Assigned Contract pursuant to section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code and, as applicable, the CCAA.

(b) Non-Assignment.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, a Contract shall not be an Assigned Contract hereunder and shall not be assigned to, or assumed by, Purchaser or a Designated Purchaser to the extent that such Contract is rejected by a Seller or its Affiliates or terminated by a Seller, its Affiliates or any other party thereto, or terminates or expires by its terms, on or prior to such time as it is to be assumed by Purchaser or a Designated Purchaser as an Assigned Contract hereunder and is not continued or otherwise extended upon assumption.

4

(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, to the extent an Acquired Asset requires a Consent or Governmental Authorization (other than, and in addition to and determined after giving effect to, any Order of the Bankruptcy Court, including the Sale Order, and any Order of the Canadian Court, including the Canadian Sale Recognition Order) in order to permit the sale or transfer to Purchaser or a Designated Purchaser of the applicable Seller’s right, title and interest in and to such asset, and such Consent or Governmental Authorization has not been obtained prior to such time as such right, title and interest is to be transferred to Purchaser or a Designated Purchaser as an Acquired Asset hereunder, such asset shall not be an Acquired Asset hereunder and shall not be transferred to, or received by, Purchaser or a Designated Purchaser. If any Acquired Asset is deemed not to be assigned pursuant to this clause (ii), the Closing shall nonetheless take place subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and, thereafter, through the earlier of such time as such Consent or Governmental Authorization is obtained and six months following the Closing (or the closing of the Bankruptcy Cases or dissolution of the applicable Seller(s), if earlier), Sellers and Purchaser (or a Designated Purchaser, if applicable) shall (A) use reasonable best efforts to secure such Consent or Governmental Authorization as promptly as practicable after the Closing and (B) cooperate in good faith in any lawful and commercially reasonable arrangement reasonably proposed by Purchaser (or such Designated Purchaser), including subcontracting, licensing, or sublicensing to Purchaser any or all of any Seller’s rights and obligations with respect to any such Acquired Asset, under which (1) Purchaser (or a Designated Purchaser) shall obtain (without infringing upon the legal rights of such third party or violating any Law) the economic rights and benefits (net of the amount of any related Tax costs imposed on Sellers or their respective Affiliates or any direct costs associated with the retention and maintenance of such Acquired Asset incurred by any Seller or its Affiliates) with respect to such Acquired Asset with respect to which the Consent or Governmental Authorization has not been obtained and (2) Purchaser (or a Designated Purchaser) shall assume and timely discharge any related burden and obligation with respect to such Acquired Asset. Upon satisfying any requisite Consent or Governmental Authorization requirement applicable to such Acquired Asset after the Closing, Seller’s right, title and interest in and to such Acquired Asset shall promptly be transferred and assigned to Purchaser or a Designated Purchaser in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Sale Order, and, if applicable, the Canadian Sale Recognition Order. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) the provisions of this Section 1.5(b) shall not apply to any Consent or approval required under the HSR Act, the Competition Act Approval and the CTA Approval, if required, and any Antitrust Laws, which Consent or approval shall be governed by Section 6.3 and (y) no Seller will be obligated to pay any consideration therefor to any third party from whom Consent or Governmental Authorization is requested or to initiate any litigation to obtain any such Consent or Governmental Authorization.

ARTICLE II

CONSIDERATION; PAYMENT; CLOSING

2.1 Consideration; Payment.

(a) The aggregate consideration (collectively, the “Purchase Price”) to be paid by Purchaser for the purchase of the Acquired Assets shall be: (i) a cash payment of [•] DOLLARS ($[•]), subject to adjustments as specified in Section 2.7 (the “Cash Payment”), (ii) the assumption of Assumed Liabilities,

5

provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to the Assumed Liabilities of Canadian Seller to be assumed pursuant to this Agreement, such price shall be satisfied solely by the assumption of Assumed Liabilities that are accrued liabilities of Canadian Seller, (iii) the storage of the Rolling Stock on Purchaser’s property pursuant to Section 6.13 hereof, and (iv) such other consideration under law provided to Sellers pursuant to this Agreement.

(b) At the Closing, Purchaser shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Sellers the Cash Payment, as adjusted pursuant to Section 2.7, less the Deposit, (the “Closing Date Payment”). The Closing Date Payment and any payment required to be made pursuant to any other provision hereof shall be made in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such bank account as shall be designated in writing by the applicable Party to (or for the benefit of) whom such payment is to be made at least two Business Days prior to the date such payment is to be made.

(c) The Purchaser shall be liable for and shall pay all Transfer Taxes in addition to the Purchase Price.

2.2 Deposit.

(a) Purchaser, on or prior to the date hereof, has, on the date hereof, made an earnest money deposit with [•] (the “Escrow Agent”) in the amount equal to 5% of the Cash Payment portion of the Purchase Price (the “Deposit”), by wire transfer of immediately available funds for deposit into a separate segregated, non-interest bearing escrow account maintained by the Escrow Agent in accordance with the Bidding Procedures Order. The Deposit shall not be subject to any lien, attachment, trustee process, or any other judicial process of any creditor of any Seller or Purchaser and shall be applied against payment of the Purchase Price on the Closing Date or otherwise paid or disbursed as expressly provided in this Agreement.

(b) If this Agreement has been terminated by Sellers pursuant to Section 8.1(d), 8.1(f), or 8.1(j) (or by Purchaser pursuant to Section 8.1(b) or 8.1(c), in each case in circumstances where Sellers would be entitled to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(d), 8.1(f), or 8.1(j)), then the Parties shall promptly, but in any event within five (5) Business Days after such termination hereof, deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent directing the Escrow Agent to transfer by wire transfer of immediately available funds 100% of the Deposit (together with any and all investment interest thereon, if any) to such account(s) as may be designated by Yellow, and Yellow shall retain the Deposit (together with any and all investment interest thereon if any); provided that nothing in this paragraph shall be deemed to limit any other remedies to which Purchaser may be entitled under this Agreement or applicable Law.

(c) If this Agreement has been terminated by any Party, other than as contemplated by Section 2.2(b), then the Parties shall promptly, but in any event within five (5) Business Days after such termination hereof, deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent directing the Escrow Agent to transfer by wire transfer of immediately available funds 100% of the Deposit (together with any and all investment interest thereon, if any) to such account(s) as may be designated by Purchaser, and the Deposit, together with any and all investment interest thereon, if any, shall be returned to Purchaser within five (5) Business Days after such termination.

6

(d) The Parties agree that Sellers’ right to retain the Deposit (together with any and all investment interest thereon if any), as set forth in Section 2.2(b), is not a penalty, but rather is liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate Sellers for their efforts and resources expended and the opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the Transactions, which amount would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision.

(e) If the Closing occurs, at the Closing the Parties shall deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent directing the Escrow Agent to transfer by wire transfer of immediately available funds 100% of the Deposit (together with any and all investment interest thereon, if any), less the aggregate amount of any Disputed Amounts, to such account(s) as may be designated by Yellow. In the event there are any Disputed Amounts at the time of the Closing, the parties shall, within one (1) Business Day following the resolution of such Disputed Amounts by the Independent Accountant in accordance with Section 2.7(c)(ii), deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent directing the Escrow Agent to transfer by wire transfer of immediately available funds the remaining amounts of the Deposit and any additional Deposit amounts to the Party or Parties entitled thereto pursuant to the written decision of the Independent Accountant as set forth in Section 2.7(c)(ii), to such account(s) as may be designated by such recipient Party or Parties.

The closing of the purchase and sale of the Acquired Assets, the delivery of the Purchase Price, the assumption of the Assumed Liabilities in accordance with this Agreement (the “Closing”) will take place by telephone conference and electronic exchange of documents (or, if the Parties agree to hold a physical closing, at the offices of Kirkland & Ellis LLP, located at 601 Lexington Avenue, New York, New York 10022) at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the second Business Day following full satisfaction or due waiver (by the Party entitled to the benefit of such condition) of the closing conditions set forth in Article VII (other than conditions that by their terms or nature are to be satisfied at the Closing), or at such other place and time as the Parties may agree in writing; provided that the Closing will occur no earlier than 120 calendar days after the Petition Date (i.e., December 4, 2023), which may be extended to 150 days with the written consent of Purchaser (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) and the Persons whose consent is required under any debtor-in-possession financing agreement(s) of Sellers. The date on which the Closing actually occurs is referred to herein as the “Closing Date.” In anticipation of and following the Closing Date, Sellers and Purchaser shall make all commercially reasonable efforts to accomplish the recording of all documents and instruments necessary to transfer title to the Acquired Real Property within fourteen (14) days of Closing.

(b) Closing Escrow. The Closing shall take place pursuant to a money escrow at [Title Co.; address, contact, email; TBD] (the “Title Company”) in accordance with the standard document and money escrow agreement utilized by the Title Company (“Closing Escrow”) to be opened with the Title Company on or before the Closing Date, with such special provisions inserted in the Closing Escrow as may be required to conform to this Agreement; provided that, in the event of a conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the Closing Escrow, the terms of this Agreement shall

(ii) All Disputed Amounts shall be submitted for resolution to Kroll, LLC (the “Independent Accountant”) who, acting as experts and not arbitrators, shall resolve the Disputed Amounts only and make any relevant adjustments to the Closing Statement. The parties hereto agree that all adjustments shall be made without regard to materiality. The Independent Accountant shall only decide the specific items under dispute by the parties, acting as an expert and not as an arbitrator, and its decision for each Disputed Amount must be within the range of values asserted by the Parties, respectively. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant shall be allocated to and borne by Purchaser, on the one hand, and Sellers, on the other hand, in inverse proportion as they may prevail on the Disputed Amounts, which proportionate allocations shall be calculated on an aggregate basis based on the relative dollar values of all Disputed Amounts and shall be determined by the Independent Accountant and included in its written decision. The Independent Accountant shall decide as soon as practicable within thirty (30) days (or such other time as the Parties shall agree in writing) after their engagement, and their resolution of the Disputed Amounts and their adjustments to the Closing Statement shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties hereto, and the Disputed Amounts shall be released by the Escrow Agent and disbursed to the Party or Parties set forth in the written decision of the Independent Accountant in accordance with this Section 2.7(c)(ii).

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF PURCHASER

Purchaser represents and warrants to Sellers as of the date hereof as follows.

Purchaser is an entity duly created, formed or organized (as applicable), validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of the jurisdiction of its creation, formation or organization (as applicable) and has all requisite corporate or limited liability company power and authority necessary to conduct its business as it is now being conducted, except (other than with respect to Purchaser’s due formation and valid existence) as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have an adverse effect on Purchaser’s ability to consummate the Transactions. Purchaser is duly licensed or qualified to do business and is in good standing (where such concept is recognized under applicable Law) under the Laws of each jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted by it or the character or location of the properties owned or used by it makes such licensing or qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so licensed, qualified or in good standing would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have an adverse effect on Purchaser’s ability to consummate the Transactions.

4.2 Authorization of Agreement. Purchaser has all necessary power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder and to consummate the Transactions. The execution, delivery and performance by Purchaser of this Agreement, and the consummation by Purchaser of the Transactions, subject to requisite Bankruptcy Court and Canadian Court approvals being granted, have been duly authorized by all requisite corporate or similar organizational action and no other corporate or similar organizational proceedings on its part are necessary to authorize the execution, delivery and performance by Purchaser of this Agreement and the consummation by it of the Transactions. Subject to requisite Bankruptcy Court and Canadian Court approvals being granted, this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by Purchaser and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery hereof by the other Parties, constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Purchaser, enforceable against Purchaser in accordance with its terms, except that such enforceability may be limited by the Enforceability Exceptions.

4.3 Conflicts; Consents.

(a) Assuming that (i) the Sale Order, the Canadian Sale Recognition Order, and all other requisite Bankruptcy Court and Canadian Court approvals are obtained, (ii) the notices, authorizations, approvals, Orders, permits or consents set forth on Schedule 4.3(a) are made, given or obtained (as applicable), and (iii) the requirements of the HSR Act, Competition Act, and CTA are complied with, neither the execution and delivery by Purchaser of this Agreement, nor the consummation by Purchaser of the Transactions or the Financing, nor performance or compliance by Purchaser with any of the terms or provisions hereof, the Debt Commitment Letter, or any definitive documents with respect to the Financing, will (A) conflict with or violate any provision of Purchaser’s Organizational Documents, (B) violate any Law or Order applicable to Purchaser, (C) violate or constitute a breach of or default (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both) under or give rise to a right of termination, modification, or cancelation of any obligation or to the loss of any benefit, any of the terms or provisions of any loan or credit agreement or other material

Contract to which Purchaser is a party or accelerate Purchaser’s obligations under any such Contract, or (D) result in the creation of any Encumbrance (other than a Permitted Encumbrance) on any properties or assets of Purchaser or any of its Subsidiaries, except, in the case of clauses (B) through (D), as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to prevent or materially impair, alter or delay the ability of Purchaser to consummate the Transactions.

(b) Except as set forth on Schedule 4.3(a), Purchaser is not required to file, seek or obtain any notice, authorization, approval, Order, permit or consent of or with any Governmental Body in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by Purchaser of this Agreement or the consummation by Purchaser of the Transactions, except (i) any filings required to be made under the HSR Act, or (ii) where failure to obtain such consent, approval, authorization or action, or to make such filing or notification, would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to prevent or materially impair, alter or delay the ability of Purchaser to consummate the Transactions.

4.4 Financing. Subject to the other provisions of this Section 4.4, Purchaser has as of the Bidder Approval Date, and will have at the Closing, sufficient funds in an aggregate amount necessary to pay the Purchase Price in full and to consummate all of the other Transactions, including the payment of the Purchase Price in full and all fees, expenses of, and other amounts required to be paid by, Purchaser in connection with the Transactions (the “Specified Uses”) and does not know of any circumstance or condition that could reasonably be expected to prevent or substantially delay the availability of such funds or otherwise impair such capability at the Closing and such other dates that such obligations and transactions are required to be satisfied pursuant to the terms hereof. Purchaser affirms that it is not a condition to Closing or to any of its obligations under this Agreement that Purchaser obtains financing for the Transactions.

(a) [Subject to Section 4.4(d), Purchaser has received and accepted a debt commitment letter dated as of [•], 2023 (the “Debt Commitment Letter”) from [•] (collectively, the “Lenders”) relating to the commitment of the Lenders to provide debt financing in the aggregate amount set forth therein subject solely to the conditions set forth therein (the “Financing”). A complete and correct copy of the Debt Commitment Letter (including (i) all exhibits, schedules, annexes and amendments to such debt commitment letter, (ii) any associated fee letter in redacted form (none of which redactions (which redactions relate only to fee amounts, fee percentages and certain economic terms of the market flex) would affect the amount, conditionality, enforceability or availability of the Financing) and (iii) any other side letter or agreement executed in connection thereto) has been provided to Yellow on the date hereof, and there have been no amendments or modifications to the Debt Commitment Letter (unless otherwise agreed to by Yellow).]¹

16

(b) [The Debt Commitment Letter contains all of the conditions precedent to the obligations of the parties thereunder to make the Financing available to Purchaser on the terms therein. There are, and as of the Bidder Approval Date there shall be, no side letters or other agreements, Contracts or arrangements related to the funding or investing, as applicable, of any of the Financing, other than as expressly set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter that have been provided to Yellow prior to the date hereof, and there are, and as of the Bidder Approval Date there shall be, no contingencies that would permit the Lenders to reduce the total amount of the Financing. Purchaser has taken all actions required to cause the Debt Commitment Letter to be effective.]

(c) [The Financing, when funded in accordance with the Debt Commitment Letter (including after giving effect to all flex terms in the related fee letter), shall, together with Purchaser’s cash on hand, provide Purchaser with acquisition financing at the Closing sufficient for the payment of the Closing Date Payment, the satisfaction of all of Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement and the Transaction Agreements and the payment of all costs and fees to be borne by Purchaser and its Affiliates.]

(d) [Upon the announcement by the Debtors that Purchaser is the Successful Bidder at the Auction (the “Bidder Approval Date”), Purchaser shall, and shall procure that the Lenders, within twenty-four hours of such announcement (to the extent not done prior to such time), duly execute and deliver the Debt Commitment Letter, in the form provided to Sellers on the date hereof (without further revisions unless acceptable to Sellers), and upon such execution on such date the Debt Commitment Letter shall be legal, valid, binding and in full force and effect. As of the date hereof and as of the Bidder Approval Date, and assuming the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 7.1 and Section 7.2, no event, fact or circumstance has occurred that, with or without notice, lapse of time, or both, would reasonably be expected to constitute a default or breach or a failure to satisfy a condition precedent on the part of Purchaser under the terms and conditions of the Debt Commitment Letter. As of the Bidder Approval Date, Purchaser shall have paid in full any and all commitment fees or other fees required to be paid pursuant to the terms of the Debt Commitment Letter on or before the Bidder Approval Date. Purchaser has no reason to believe that it will be unable to satisfy on a timely basis any term or condition of closing to be satisfied by it contained in the Debt Commitment Letter or that the Financing will not be made available to Purchaser on or prior to the Closing.]

(e) Notwithstanding this Section 4.4 or any other provision of this Agreement, Purchaser affirms that it is not a condition to the Closing or to any of its other obligations under this Agreement (including consummating the Transactions) that Purchaser obtain financing for or related to Transactions (including receipt of all or any portion of the proceeds of the Financing).

4.5 Brokers. There is no investment banker, broker, finder, or other intermediary which has been retained by or is authorized to act on behalf of Purchaser that might be entitled to any fee or commission in connection with the Transactions.

4.6 No Litigation. There are no Actions pending or, to Purchaser’s knowledge, threatened against or affecting Purchaser that will or would be reasonably likely to adversely affect Purchaser’s performance of its obligations under this Agreement or the consummation of the Transactions.

17

4.7 Certain Arrangements. There are no Contracts, undertakings, commitments or obligations, whether written or oral, between any member of the Purchaser Group, on the one hand, and any member of the management of Seller or its board of directors (or applicable governing body of any Affiliate of Seller), any holder of equity or debt securities of Seller, or any lender or creditor of Seller or any Affiliate of Seller, on the other hand, (a) relating in any way to the acquisition of the Acquired Assets or the Transactions or (b) that would be reasonably likely to prevent, restrict, impede or affect adversely the ability of Seller or any of its Affiliates to entertain, negotiate or participate in any such transactions.

4.8 Solvency. Purchaser is, and immediately after giving effect to the Transactions shall be, solvent and at all times shall: (a) be able to pay its debts as they become due; (b) own property that has a fair saleable value greater than the amounts required to pay its debt (including a reasonable estimate of the amount of all contingent Liabilities) and (c) have adequate capital to carry on its business. No transfer of property is being made and no obligation is being incurred in connection with the Transactions with the intent to hinder, delay or defraud either present or future creditors of Purchaser. In connection with the Transactions, Purchaser has not incurred, nor plans to incur, debts beyond its ability to pay as they become absolute and matured.

4.9 No Foreign Person. As of Closing, Purchaser will not be a “foreign person,” as defined in Section 721 of the U.S. Defense Production Act of 1950, including any implementing regulations thereof.

ARTICLE V

BANKRUPTCY COURT MATTERS

5.1 Bankruptcy Actions.

(a) The bidding procedures to be employed with respect to this Agreement shall be those reflected in the Bidding Procedures Order. Purchaser agrees and acknowledges that Sellers, including through its representatives, are and may continue soliciting inquiries, proposals or offers from third parties in connection with any Alternative Transaction pursuant to the terms of the Bidding Procedures Order and the Canadian Bidding Procedures Recognition Order. In the event of a conflict between the terms of the Bidding Procedures Order or the Canadian Bidding Procedures Recognition Order and this Agreement, then the Bidding Procedures Order or Canadian Bidding Procedures Recognition Order, as applicable, shall control.

(b) Purchaser shall promptly take all actions as are reasonably requested by Sellers to assist in obtaining the Bankruptcy Court’s entry of the Sale Order, the Canadian Court’s entry of the Canadian Sale Recognition Order, and any other Order reasonably necessary in connection with the Transactions, including furnishing affidavits, reasonable and customary financial information demonstrating wherewithal to perform under this Agreement and any other Assigned Contracts, or other documents or information for filing with the Bankruptcy Court or the Canadian Court, and making employees and Advisors of Purchaser and its Affiliates available to testify before the Bankruptcy Court or the Canadian Court for the purposes of, among other things, providing necessary assurances of performance by Purchaser under this Agreement, and demonstrating that Purchaser is a “good faith” purchaser under section 363(m) of the Bankruptcy Code, as well as demonstrating Purchaser’s ability to pay and perform or otherwise satisfy any Assumed Liabilities following the Closing.

18

(c) Each Party shall (i) appear formally or informally in the Bankruptcy Court and the Canadian Court if reasonably requested by the other Party or required by the Bankruptcy Court or the Canadian Court in connection with the Transactions and (ii) keep the other reasonably apprised of the status of material matters related to the Agreement, including, upon reasonable request, promptly furnishing the other with copies of notices or other communications received by a Seller from the Bankruptcy Court or the Canadian Court with respect to the Transactions.

(d) If Purchaser is not the prevailing party at the conclusion of the Auction (such prevailing party, the “Successful Bidder”) but is the next highest bidder at the Auction, Purchaser shall be required to serve as a back-up bidder (the “Backup Bidder”) and keep Purchaser’s bid to consummate the Transactions on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement (as the same may be revised in the Auction) open and irrevocable until the later of (i) February 6, 2024[; provided, however, that such date may be extended upon the mutual agreement of Purchaser and Yellow one time for an additional thirty (30) calendar days and, if so extended, Sellers shall pay to Purchaser an extension fee in the amount of $[•], which may be applied as a credit towards the Purchase Price if Purchaser is the Successful Bidder], and (ii) such other date as this Agreement is otherwise terminated. If the Successful Bidder fails to consummate the applicable Alternative Transaction as a result of a breach or failure to perform on the part of such Successful Bidder, the Backup Bidder will be deemed to have the new prevailing bid, and Sellers may consummate the Transactions on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement (as the same may have been improved upon in the Auction).

(e) If Purchaser is the Successful Bidder or Backup Bidder at the Auction, within three (3) Business Days following the Bidder Approval Date, Sellers shall file with the Bankruptcy Court a motion seeking approval of the Sale Order. Sellers shall use commercially reasonable efforts to schedule a hearing with the Bankruptcy Court to consider entry of the Sale Order. From the date hereof until the earlier of (i) the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Article VIII and (ii) the Closing Date, Sellers shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain entry by the Bankruptcy Court of the Sale Order.

(f) Promptly, and in any event within five (5) Business Days, following the entry by the Bankruptcy Court of the Sale Order, the Foreign Representative shall file with the Canadian Court a motion seeking approval of the Canadian Sale Recognition Order. The Foreign Representative shall use commercially reasonable efforts to schedule a hearing before the Canadian Court to consider entry of the Canadian Sale Recognition Order. From the date hereof until the earlier of (i) the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Article VIII and (ii) the Closing Date, Sellers shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain entry by the Canadian Court of the Canadian Sale Recognition Order.

(g) Sellers and Purchaser acknowledge that this Agreement and the sale of the Acquired Assets are subject to higher and better bids and Bankruptcy Court and Canadian Court approval. Purchaser acknowledges that Sellers must take reasonable steps to demonstrate that they have sought to obtain the highest or otherwise best price for the Acquired Assets, including giving notice thereof to the creditors of Sellers and other interested parties, providing information about Sellers to prospective bidders, entertaining higher and better offers from such prospective bidders, and, in the event that additional qualified prospective bidders desire to bid for the Acquired Assets, conducting an Auction.

19

(h) Purchaser shall provide adequate assurance of future performance as required under section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code (and as may be required under the CCAA) for the Assigned Contracts. Purchaser agrees that it will take all actions reasonably required to assist in obtaining a Bankruptcy Court finding that there has been a sufficient demonstration of adequate assurance of future performance under the Assigned Contracts, such as furnishing affidavits, non-confidential financial information and other documents or information for filing with the Bankruptcy Court and the Canadian Court and making Purchaser’s Advisors available to testify before the Bankruptcy Court and the Canadian Court.

(i) Nothing in this Section 5.1 shall prevent Sellers from modifying the bidding procedures as necessary or appropriate to maximize value for Sellers’ estate in accordance with Sellers’ fiduciary obligations.

5.2 Cure Costs. Subject to entry of the Sale Order and the Canadian Sale Recognition Order, Purchaser shall, on or prior to the Closing (or, in the case of any Contract that is to be assigned following the Closing pursuant to Section 1.5, on or prior to the date of such assignment), pay the Cure Costs and cure any and all other defaults and breaches under the Assigned Contracts so that such Contracts may be assumed by the applicable Seller and assigned to Purchaser in accordance with the provisions of section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, the CCAA, and this Agreement.

5.3 Approval. Sellers’ obligations under this Agreement and in connection with the Transactions are subject to entry of and, to the extent entered, the terms of any Orders of the Bankruptcy Court (including entry of the Sale Order) and the Canadian Court (including entry of the Canadian Sale Recognition Order). Nothing in this Agreement shall require Sellers or their respective Affiliates to give testimony to or submit a motion to the Bankruptcy Court or to the Canadian Court that is untruthful or to violate any duty of candor or other fiduciary duty to the Bankruptcy Court, the Canadian Court, or their stakeholders.

5.4 Canadian Sale Recognition Order. The Canadian Sale Recognition Order shall, with respect to Acquired Assets of the Canadian Seller, among other things, (a) recognize and give full force and effect to the Sale Order in all provinces and territories in Canada, pursuant to section 49 of the CCAA, (b) approve the sale of the Acquired Assets of the Canadian Seller contemplated hereunder, (c) vest the Acquired Assets of the Canadian Seller in the Purchaser, free and clear of all Encumbrances other than the Permitted Encumbrances, (d) assign all of the applicable Assigned Contracts of the Canadian Seller, and (e) provide that upon payment of the Cure Costs in respect of the applicable Assigned Contracts of the Canadian Seller, all past defaults under the applicable Assigned Contracts shall be deemed to be cured and each such Assigned Contract shall be in good standing and effective, according to its terms.

Purchaser shall oppose any request for, the entry of, and seek to have vacated or terminated, any Order, judgment, decree, injunction or ruling of any Governmental Body that could restrain, prevent or delay any required Consents applicable to the Transactions, including by defending through litigation, any Action asserted by any Person in any court or before any Governmental Body and by exhausting all avenues of appeal, including appealing properly any adverse decision or Order by any Governmental Body, it being understood that the costs and expenses of all such actions shall be

24

borne by Purchaser. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall require the Seller or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates to take or agree to take any action that is unrelated to Transactions or is not conditioned on the Closing as may be required in order to obtain satisfaction of the closing conditions set forth in Section 7.1(a) prior to the Outside Date, in each case, so as to allow the consummation of this Agreement and the Transactions as soon as practicable and, in any event, prior to the Outside Date.

(d) None of Sellers or Purchaser will participate in any meeting or discussion with any Governmental Body with respect of any filings, applications, investigation or other inquiry relating to the Transactions without giving the other Party reasonable prior notice of the meeting or discussion and, to the extent permitted by the relevant Governmental Body, the opportunity to attend and participate in such meeting or discussion, unless prohibited by such Governmental Body. Sellers will have the right to review and approve the content of any draft notifications, formal notifications, filing, submission or other written communication (and any analyses, memoranda, presentations, white papers, correspondence or other written materials submitted therewith) to be submitted to any Governmental Body in advance of any such submission. Each Party acknowledges that, with respect to any non-public information provided by a Party to the other under this Section 6.4, each Party may (1) designate such material as restricted to “outside counsel only” and any such material shall not be shared with employees, officers or directors or their equivalents of the receiving Party without approval of the disclosing Party and (2) redact such materials as necessary to satisfy contractual confidentiality obligations, preserve attorney-client privilege or protect material relating to the valuation of the Acquired Assets.

(e) Purchaser will not, and will not permit any member of the Purchaser Group or their respective Affiliates to, directly or indirectly take any action or agree to take any action (including but limited to acquiring or agreeing to acquire any assets or businesses) that would be reasonably likely to materially delay or prevent the receipt of any required clearances, Consents, approvals, waivers, actions, waiting period expirations or terminations, non-actions or other authorizations under the HSR Act or other Antitrust Law or increase the risk of any Governmental Body entering an Order preventing, delaying or prohibiting the consummation of the Transactions or delay the consummation of the Transactions.

6.5 Reasonable Efforts; Cooperation.

(a) Subject to the other terms of this Agreement, each Party shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use its and their respective reasonable best efforts to perform its and their respective obligations hereunder and to take, or cause to be taken, and do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to cause the Transactions to be effected as soon as practicable, but in any event on or prior to the Outside Date, in accordance with the terms hereof and to cooperate with each other Party, its Affiliates and its and their respective Advisors in connection with any step required to be taken as a part of its obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else herein to the contrary, the “reasonable best efforts” of Sellers will not require Sellers or any of its Affiliates or other Seller Parties to expend any money to remedy any breach of any representation or warranty, to commence any Action, to waive or surrender any right, to modify any Contract or to waive or forego any right, remedy or condition hereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties agree that the foregoing cannot be construed to create any obligation on any of the aforementioned Advisors to take or refrain from taking any action, absent an express contractual requirement to do so, nor can any of the foregoing be construed to override existing confidentiality and other obligations owed by any Party or other Person to such Advisors.

25

(b) The obligations of Sellers pursuant to this Agreement, including this Section 6.5, shall be subject to any Orders entered, or approvals or authorizations granted or required, by or under (i) the Bankruptcy Court or the Bankruptcy Code (including in connection with the Bankruptcy Cases) and (ii) the Canadian Court or the CCAA (including in connection with the Canadian Recognition Proceedings), Sellers’ debtor-in-possession financing, and Sellers’ obligations as debtors in possession to comply with any Order of the Bankruptcy Court (including the Bidding Procedures Order and the Sale Order), any Order of the Canadian Court (including the Canadian Bidding Procedures Recognition Order and the Canadian Sale Recognition Order), and Sellers’ duty to seek and obtain the highest or otherwise best price for the Acquired Assets as required by the Bankruptcy Code.

6.6 [Financing.²

(a) Purchaser shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the Financing on the terms and conditions (including the flex provisions) described in the Debt Commitment Letter as promptly as practicable and shall not permit any amendment or modification to be made to, or any waiver of any provision under, the Debt Commitment Letter, if such amendment, modification or waiver (i) reduces (or could have the effect of reducing) the aggregate amount of the Financing (including by increasing the amount of fees to be paid or original issue discount, unless the portion of the Specified Uses to be funded using cash on hand is increased by a corresponding amount) or (ii) imposes new or additional conditions or otherwise expands, amends or modifies any of the conditions to the Financing, or otherwise expands, amends or modifies any other provision of the Debt Commitment Letter, in a manner that would reasonably be expected to (A) delay or prevent or make less likely the funding of the Financing (or satisfaction of the conditions to the Financing) on the Closing Date or (B) adversely impact the ability of Purchaser to enforce their rights against other parties to the Debt Commitment Letter or the definitive agreements with respect thereto. Purchaser shall promptly deliver to Yellow copies of any such amendment, modification or replacement. For purposes of this Section 6.6(a), references to “Financing” shall include the financing contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter as permitted to be amended, modified or replaced by Section 6.6(d), and references to “Debt Commitment Letter” shall include such documents as permitted to be amended, modified or replaced by this Section 6.6(d).

(b) Purchaser shall use its reasonable best efforts (i) to comply with and maintain in effect the Debt Commitment Letter, (ii) to negotiate and enter into definitive agreements with respect to the Debt Commitment Letter on the terms and conditions (including the flex provisions) contained in the Debt Commitment Letter (or on terms no less favorable to Purchaser than the terms and conditions (including flex provisions) contained in the Debt Commitment Letter), (iii) to satisfy on a timely basis all conditions to funding in the Debt Commitment Letter and such definitive agreements with respect thereto and consummate the Financing upon the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 7.1 and Section 7.2, and (iv) to enforce its rights under the Debt Commitment Letter.

26

(c) Purchaser shall keep Yellow informed on a current basis and in reasonable detail of the status of its efforts to arrange the Financing and provide promptly to Yellow copies of the material definitive agreements for the Financing. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Purchaser shall give Yellow prompt notice (i) of any breach or default (or any event that, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would reasonably be expected to give rise to any default or breach) by any party to the Debt Commitment Letter or definitive agreements related to the Financing of which Purchaser or any of its affiliates become aware, or (ii) of the receipt of written notice from any Lender with respect to any (A) actual or potential breach, default, termination or repudiation by any party to the Debt Commitment Letter or definitive agreements related to the Financing or any provisions of the Debt Commitment Letter or definitive agreements related to the Financing or (B) material dispute or disagreement between or among any parties to the Debt Commitment Letter or definitive agreements related to the Financing, in the case of each of the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) to the extent that such breach, default, or disagreement would reasonably be expected to result in the Purchaser being unable to obtain all or any material portion of the Financing. As soon as reasonably practicable, but in any event within two Business Days of the date Sellers deliver to Purchaser a written request, Purchaser shall provide any information reasonably requested by Sellers relating to any circumstance referred to in clauses (i) or (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence.

(d) Upon the occurrence of any circumstance referred to in clauses (i) or (ii) of Section 6.6(c), or if any portion of the Financing otherwise becomes unavailable or Purchaser becomes aware of any event or circumstance that would reasonably be expected to make any portion of the Financing becoming unavailable, Purchaser shall use its reasonable best efforts to arrange and obtain in replacement thereof alternative financing from alternative sources in an amount sufficient to consummate the Transactions with terms and conditions not materially less favorable to Purchaser or its Affiliates (taking into account the flex provisions as set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter) than the terms and conditions set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter, as applicable, as promptly as reasonably practicable following the occurrence of such event. Purchaser shall deliver to Sellers true and complete copies of any commitment letter or other Contract pursuant to which any such alternative source shall have committed to provide any portion of the Financing and such commitment letter or other Contract shall be a “Debt Commitment Letter” for all purposes hereunder. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the obtaining of the Financing, or any alternative financing, is not a condition to Closing.

(e) From and after the Bidder Approval Date and prior to the Closing, Sellers and their subsidiaries shall use their respective commercially reasonable best efforts to provide or cause to be provided, and to cause their respective Advisors to provide or cause to be provided, to Purchaser, in each case, at Purchaser’s sole expense, all customary cooperation and all customary financial information reasonably requested by Purchaser in connection with the Financing (in each case, provided that such requested cooperation does not unreasonably interfere with the ongoing operations of Sellers). All non-public information regarding Sellers provided to Purchaser, its affiliates, its potential lenders and investors or its Advisors pursuant to this Section 6.6(e) shall be kept confidential by them in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement or confidentiality

27

provisions comparable to those set forth in the Confidentiality Agreement. None of Sellers shall be required to disclose any information that is subject to attorney-client or similar privilege. None of Sellers shall be required to take any action pursuant to this Section 6.6(e) that would subject it to actual or potential liability for which it would not be indemnified hereunder or to bear any cost or expense or to pay any commitment or other fee or provide or agree to provide any indemnity in connection with the Financing or any of the foregoing prior to the Closing. Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless the Seller Parties from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, claims, costs, expenses, interest, awards, judgments and penalties suffered or incurred by them in connection with this Section 6.6(e) and any information utilized in connection therewith. Purchaser shall, promptly upon request by Yellow, reimburse Sellers for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred by them in connection with this Section 6.6(e).]

6.7 De-Branding. As soon as reasonably practicable, but in no event more than sixty (60) days after the Closing, Purchaser or Designated Purchaser, as applicable, shall take all actions necessary to remove or obscure any of Sellers’ identifiable trademarks, tradenames, trade dress, branding, signage, or other usage of any Seller’s trademarks, business names and logos located on or about the Acquired Real Property, including all uses of the name “Yellow” and Yellow’s trademarks.

6.8 Further Assurances. From time to time, as and when requested by any Party and at such requesting Party’s expense, any other Party will execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, all such documents and instruments and will take, or cause to be taken, all such further or other actions as such requesting Party may reasonably deem necessary or desirable to evidence and effectuate the Transactions. In furtherance of the foregoing, in order to facilitate the timely registration of any Acquired Real Property in accordance with this Agreement and local land registry office requirements, the Parties shall agree upon the fair market value of each Acquired Real Property and each Party hereto will execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, at the requesting Party’s expense, such reasonable and typical affidavits, conveyances and/or filings as the local land registry office may require and to which the requested Party has no reasonable objection. However, while each of the Parties will co-operate in connection with the foregoing, notwithstanding the foregoing co-operation, said co-operation and the resulting affidavits, conveyances and/or filings shall not in itself, in any manner: (x) increase or decrease the scope or any other aspect of any Party’s representations or warranties and/or other obligations contained in this Agreement; and (y) result in a requested Party incurring any additional third party costs or expenses (other than its own legal fees which it shall continue to be solely responsible for bearing).

6.9 Insurance Matters. Purchaser acknowledges that, subject to the next sentence, upon Closing, all nontransferable insurance coverage provided in relation to any Seller and the Acquired Assets that is maintained by such Seller or its Affiliates (whether such policies are maintained with third party insurers or with Seller or its Affiliates) shall cease to provide any coverage to Purchaser and the Acquired Assets and no further coverage shall be available to Purchaser or the Acquired Assets under any such policies. From and after the Closing, Purchaser shall have the right to make claims and the right to any proceeds with respect to any matter solely to the extent related to the Acquired Assets or Assumed Liabilities under any insurance policies for occurrence-based claims inuring to the benefit of Sellers or any of their Affiliates for periods prior to the Closing, and Sellers shall use reasonable efforts to seek recovery or allow Purchaser to seek recovery under such

insurance policies, and Seller shall cooperate with Purchaser’s reasonable requests if it seeks recovery, with respect to such matters and shall remit (or, at Purchaser’s request, direct any such insurer to pay directly to Purchaser) any insurance proceeds actually obtained therefrom (net of Sellers’ reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of seeking such recovery, to the extent not otherwise paid or reimbursed by Purchaser) to Purchaser or its designee.

6.10 Guarantees. Purchaser acknowledges that in the course of conduct of their business, Sellers and their Affiliates may have entered into various arrangements (a) in which guarantees, letters of credit, sureties, bonds or similar arrangements were issued by Sellers or their Affiliates and (b) in which Sellers or their Affiliates are the primary obligors on other Contracts, in any such case to support or facilitate such business. The arrangements entered into by Sellers or their Affiliates referred to in the foregoing clauses (a) and (b), solely to the extent relating to any Acquired Assets or Assumed Liabilities set forth in Schedule 6.10, are referred to as the “Seller Support Obligations”. It is understood that the Seller Support Obligations are not intended to continue after the Closing. Purchaser agrees that it shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain replacements for the Seller Support Obligations (which shall include the full and unconditional release of Sellers and their Affiliates) that will be in effect at the Closing or, in the case of Seller Support Obligations described in the foregoing clause (b), will use its commercially reasonable efforts to arrange for itself or one of its Subsidiaries to be substituted as the primary obligor thereon as of the Closing through an assumption, accession, acknowledgement or similar agreement (which shall include the full and unconditional release of Sellers and their Affiliates) with the beneficiary of the applicable Seller Support Obligation. Whether or not Purchaser is able to satisfy the terms of the immediately preceding sentence, Purchaser shall indemnify Sellers and their Affiliates and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives from and against any and all Liabilities incurred by any of them relating to the Seller Support Obligations. Purchaser agrees that, with respect to any Seller Support Obligation, its reasonable best efforts pursuant to this Section 6.10 shall include, if requested, the execution and delivery by Purchaser, or by an Affiliate of Purchaser acceptable to the beneficiary of such Seller Support Obligation, of a replacement guarantee that is substantially in the form of such Seller Support Obligation. All costs and expenses incurred in connection with providing the release or substitution of the Seller Support Obligations shall be borne by Purchaser.

6.11 Receipt of Misdirected Assets; Liabilities.

(a) From and after the Closing, if any Seller or any of its respective Affiliates receives any right, property or asset that is an Acquired Asset, the applicable Seller shall promptly transfer or cause such of its Affiliates to transfer such right, property or asset (and shall promptly endorse and deliver any such asset that is received in the form of cash, checks or other documents) to Purchaser, and such asset will be deemed the property of Purchaser held in trust by such Seller for Purchaser until so transferred. From and after the Closing, if Purchaser or any of its Affiliates receives any right, property or asset that is an Excluded Asset, Purchaser shall promptly transfer or cause such of its Affiliates to transfer such asset (and shall promptly endorse and deliver any such right, property or asset that is received in the form of cash, checks, or other documents) to the applicable Seller, and such asset will be deemed the property of such Seller held in trust by Purchaser for such Seller until so transferred.

29

(b) From and after the Closing, if any Seller or any of its Affiliates is subject to a Liability that should belong to Purchaser or its Affiliates pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, such Seller shall promptly transfer or cause such of its Affiliates to transfer such Liability to Purchaser, and Purchaser shall assume and accept such Liability.

(a) Purchaser acknowledges and agrees, on its own behalf and on behalf of the Purchaser Group, that it has conducted to its full satisfaction an independent investigation and verification of the business (including its financial condition, results of operations, assets, Liabilities, properties, Contracts, zoning, environmental, health or safety conditions and compliance, employee matters, regulatory compliance, business risks and prospects) of Sellers, and the Acquired Assets and the Assumed Liabilities, and, in making its determination to proceed with the Transactions, Purchaser and the Purchaser Group have relied solely, are relying, and will rely, solely, on the Express Representations and the results of the Purchaser Group’s own independent investigation and verification and have not relied on, are not relying on, and will not rely on, any information, statements, disclosures, documents, projections, forecasts or other material made available to Purchaser or any of its Affiliates or Advisors in the Dataroom, any Information Presentation, or any other information, statements, disclosures or materials, in each case, whether written or oral, made or provided by or on behalf of any Seller or any other Seller Party, or any failure of any of the foregoing to disclose or contain any information, except for the Express Representations. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees, on its own behalf and on behalf of the Purchaser Group, that (i) the Express Representations are the sole and exclusive representations, warranties and statements of any kind made to Purchaser or any member of the Purchaser Group and on which Purchaser or any member of the Purchaser Group may rely in connection with the Transactions and (ii) all other representations, warranties and statements of any kind or nature expressed or implied, statutory, whether in written, electronic or oral form, including (A) the completeness or accuracy of, or any omission to state or to disclose, any information (other than solely to the extent expressly set forth in the Express Representations) including in the Dataroom, Information Presentation, meetings, calls or correspondence with management of any Seller, any of the Seller Parties or any other Person on behalf of any Seller or any of the Seller Parties or any of their respective Affiliates or Advisors and (B) any other statement relating to the historical, current or future business, financial condition, results of operations, assets, Liabilities, properties, Contracts, environmental, health or safety conditions and compliance, employee matters, regulatory compliance, business risks and prospects of the Sellers, or the quality, quantity or condition of any of the Acquired Assets, are, in each case, specifically disclaimed by each Seller, on its behalf and on behalf of the Seller Parties.

On or before the Closing Date, Sellers and Purchaser shall reasonably agree on Acquired Real Property locations to which the trucks, trailers and other rolling stock of Sellers (collectively, the “Rolling Stock”) shall be consolidated to in order to permit a timely and organized disposition of such Rolling Stock. As a post-Closing covenant, and not as a Closing condition, all Rolling Stock shall have been removed from the Acquired Real Property within thirty (30) days after the Closing Date or such other period as the Parties may agree; provided that, if at the end of such period, there remains any Acquired Real Property that Sellers have not fully vacated in accordance with this Section 6.13, Sellers shall pay Purchaser a license fee per month thereafter (until so vacated) in the amount of a fair market rental rate per month equal to 0.7% of the Purchase Price of those properties occupied by Sellers (as determined by the Allocation pursuant to Section 9.2 of this Agreement) plus all pro-rated real estate taxes with respect to such occupied properties, for up to two additional months.

To the extent applicable for Canadian Tax purposes, such Seller and such Purchaser acknowledge that a portion of the Acquired Assets was transferred to such Purchaser as payment by such Seller to such Purchaser for the assumption by such Purchaser of any such future obligations of such Seller. Sellers and Purchaser (or any applicable Designated Purchaser) shall make and timely file such other elections under the Income Tax Act (Canada), and any other applicable Canadian provincial Tax legislation with respect to such purchase and sale as are reasonably requested by Purchaser.

(i) if any individual parcel or parcels of Acquired Real Property are subject to one or more Qualified Bids (as defined in the Bidding Procedures Order and as may be improved upon at the Auction), the greater of (A) the value of the highest Qualified Bid in the Auction pertaining to such parcel or parcels and (B) the highest value allocated to such parcel or parcels in connection with a Qualified Bid in the Auction for a package of Acquired Real Property that includes such parcel or parcels;

(ii) if (i) is not applicable, but the Sellers otherwise have a binding offer or Contract for such parcel or parcels, the value in such binding offer or Contract;

(iii) if neither (i) nor (ii) is applicable, and solely for the purposes of this proviso and the proviso to Section 8.1(e), that portion of the Purchase Price equal to the product of the percentage set forth for such parcel or parcels on Schedule 7.2(b)(iii) multiplied by the total Purchase Price (the “Pro Rated Amount”); or

33

(iv) as may otherwise be mutually agreed upon in writing between the Parties;

(c) Sellers shall not have breached in a manner that is material with respect to the Transactions, taken as a whole, the covenants required to be performed or complied with by Sellers under this Agreement on or prior to Closing; and

(d) Purchaser shall have received on and as of the Closing Date a certificate of an authorized officer of Sellers confirming that the conditions set forth Section 2.4 have been satisfied.

(e) As of the Closing Date, no right of first refusal relating to any individual parcel or parcels of Acquired Real Property shall have been exercised, and the deadline to exercise any such right of first refusal shall have expired. In the event that the foregoing condition is not satisfied as of the Closing Date, Purchaser may elect, in its sole and absolute discretion, to exclude such individual parcel or parcels of Acquired Real Property from the Acquired Assets and proceed with the Closing, with the Purchase Price to be reduced by an amount determined pursuant to the methodology set forth in Section 7.2(b) hereof.

7.3 Conditions Precedent to the Obligations of Sellers. The obligations of Sellers to consummate the Closing are subject to the satisfaction (or to the extent permitted by Law, written waiver by Sellers in their sole discretion), on or prior to the Closing Date, of each of the following conditions:

(a) the representations and warranties made by Purchaser in Article IV shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the Closing Date as though made on and as of the Closing Date, except that representations and warranties that are made as of a specified date need be true and correct in all material respects only as of such date;

(b) Purchaser shall not have breached in a manner that is material with respect to the Transactions, taken as a whole, the covenants required to be performed or complied with by it under this Agreement on or prior to the Closing Date; and

(c) Sellers shall have received on and as of the Closing Date a certificate of an authorized officer of Purchaser confirming that the conditions set forth in Section 2.5 have been satisfied.

7.4 Waiver of Conditions. Upon the occurrence of the Closing, any condition set forth in this Article VII that was not satisfied as of the Closing will be deemed to have been waived for all purposes by the Party having the benefit of such condition as of and after the Closing. None of Purchaser or Sellers may rely on the failure of any condition set forth in this Article VII, as applicable, to be satisfied if such failure was caused by such Party’s failure to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement, including its obligation to use its reasonable best efforts to consummate the Transactions as required under this Agreement.

34

7.5 Information Officer’s Certificate. When the conditions to Closing set forth in Sections 7.1, 7.2, and 7.3 have been satisfied or waived by the Sellers and the Purchaser, as applicable, the Sellers and the Purchaser will each deliver to the Information Officer the certificates referred to in Section 7.2(d) and 7.3(c) applicable (the “Conditions Certificate”). Upon receipt of each of the Conditions Certificates, the Information Officer shall: (a) issue forthwith the Information Officer’s Certificate concurrently to the Sellers and the Purchasers, at which time the Closing in respect of the Acquired Assets of the Canadian Seller will be deemed to have occurred, and the Acquired Assets of the Canadian Seller shall vest in and to the Purchaser; and (b) file as soon as practicable a copy of the Information Officer’s Certificate with the Canadian Court (and shall provide a true copy of such filed certificate to the Sellers and the Purchaser). The Parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Information Officer shall be entitled to file the Information Officer’s Certificate with the Canadian Court without independent investigation upon receiving the Conditions Certificates, and the Information Officer will be relying exclusively on the basis of the Conditions Certificates and without any obligation whatsoever to verify the satisfaction or waiver of the applicable conditions and shall have no liability to Sellers or the Purchasers or any other Person as a result of filing the Information Officer’s Certificate upon receiving such Conditions Certificates.

ARTICLE VIII

(a) by the mutual written consent of Sellers and Purchaser;

(b) by written notice of either Purchaser or Sellers to the other, if there is in effect any Law or Order enacted or issued by a Governmental Body of competent jurisdiction that restrains, enjoins, declares unlawful or otherwise prohibits the consummation of the Closing or declaring unlawful the Transactions, and such Law or Order has become final, binding and non-appealable; provided that no Party may terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.1(b) if the issuance of such Order was sought or requested by such Party or caused by such Party’s failure to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement;

(c) by written notice of either Purchaser or Sellers, if the Closing shall not have occurred on or before February 6, 2024[; provided, however, that such date may be extended one time for an additional thirty (30) calendar days upon the mutual agreement of Purchaser and Yellow, and, if so extended, Sellers shall pay to Purchaser an extension fee in the amount of $[•], which may be applied as a credit towards the Purchase Price if Purchaser is the Successful Bidder] (the “Outside Date”) (or such later date as provided in Section 10.12); provided that a Party shall not be permitted to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(c) if the failure of the Closing to have occurred by the Outside Date was caused by such Party’s failure to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement;

35

(d) by written notice from Sellers to Purchaser, upon a breach of any covenant or agreement on the part of Purchaser, or if any representation or warranty of Purchaser will have become untrue, in each case, such that the conditions set forth in Section 7.3(a) or 7.3(b) would not be satisfied, including a breach of Purchaser’s obligation to consummate the Closing; provided that (i) if such breach is curable by Purchaser (other than a breach or failure by Purchaser to close when required pursuant to Section 2.3) then Sellers may not terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.1(d) for so long as Purchaser continues to exercise reasonable best efforts to cure such breach unless such breach has not been cured by the date which that the earlier of (A) two Business Days prior to the Outside Date and (B) 15 days after Sellers notify Purchaser of such breach and (ii) Sellers’ right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(d) will not be available to Sellers at any time that Sellers are in material breach of, any covenant, representation or warranty hereunder;

(e) by written notice from Purchaser to Sellers, upon a breach of any covenant or agreement on the part of Sellers, or if any representation or warranty of the Sellers will have become untrue, in each case, such that the conditions set forth in Section 7.2(a) or 7.2(c) would not be satisfied; provided that:

(i) if such breach is curable by Sellers (other than a breach or failure by Sellers to close when required pursuant to Section 2.3) then Purchaser may not terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.1(e) for so long as Sellers continue to exercise reasonable best efforts to cure such breach unless such breach has not been cured by the date which is the earlier of (A) two Business Days prior to the Outside Date and (B) 20 days after Purchaser notifies Sellers of such breach;

(ii) with respect to any representation or warranty set forth in Section 3.4, Purchaser shall not be entitled to terminate this Agreement, but rather shall be entitled solely to exclude from the Closing any specific individual parcel of Acquired Real Property with respect to which such representations or warranties are not true at the time of the Closing; provided further that in the event that any individual parcel or parcels of Acquired Real Property are excluded from the Acquired Assets pursuant to this clause (ii), the Purchase Price shall be reduced by an amount equal to: (A) if any individual parcel or parcels of Acquired Real Property are subject to one or more Qualified Bids (as defined in the Bidding Procedures Order and as may be improved upon at the Auction), the greater of (I) the value of the highest Qualified Bid in the Auction pertaining to such parcel or parcels and (II) the highest value allocated to such parcel or parcels in connection with a Qualified Bid in the Auction for a package of Acquired Real Property that includes such parcel or parcels; (B) if (A) is not applicable but the Sellers otherwise have a binding offer or Contract for such parcel or parcels, the value in such binding offer or Contract; (C) if neither (A) nor (B) is applicable, the Pro Rated Amount, or (D) as may otherwise be mutually agreed upon in writing between the Parties; and

(iii) the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(e) will not be available to Purchaser at any time that Purchaser is in material breach of, any covenant, representation or warranty hereunder;

(f) by written notice from Sellers to Purchaser, if all of the conditions set forth in Sections 7.1 and 7.2 have been satisfied (other than conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but which conditions are capable of being satisfied) or waived and Purchaser fails to complete the Closing at the time required by Section 2.3;

36

(g) by written notice from Sellers to Purchaser, if any Seller or the board of directors (or similar governing body) of any Seller determines that proceeding with the Transactions or failing to terminate this Agreement would be inconsistent with its or such Person’s or body’s fiduciary duties;

(h) by written notice of either Purchaser or Sellers, if, prior to termination of this Agreement pursuant to another provision of this Section 8.1, (i) any Seller enters into one or more Alternative Transactions with one or more Persons other than Purchaser or the Successful Bidder or the Backup Bidder at the Auction or (ii) the Bankruptcy Court approves an Alternative Transaction other than with the Successful Bidder or the Backup Bidder; or

(i) by written notice from either Purchaser or Sellers, if Purchaser is not the Successful Bidder or the Backup Bidder at the Auction; and

(j) by written notice from Sellers to Purchaser if the Debt Commitment Letter is not duly executed and delivered by Purchaser and the Lenders in accordance with Section 4.4(d) within twenty-four hours following the Bidder Approval Date (if any).

8.2 Effect of Termination. In the event of termination of this Agreement in accordance with Article VIII, this Agreement shall forthwith become null and void and no Party or any of its partners, officers, directors, managers or equityholders will have any Liability under this Agreement; provided that Section 2.2, Section 6.2(b), Section 6.6(e), Section 6.12, this Section 8.2 and Article X shall survive any such termination; provided further that no termination will relieve Purchaser from any Liability for damages, losses, costs or expenses (which the Parties acknowledge and agree shall not be limited to reimbursement of expenses or out-of-pocket costs, and would include the benefits of the Transactions lost by Sellers (taking into consideration all relevant matters, including other combination opportunities and the time value of money), which shall be deemed in such event to be damages of Sellers) resulting from any Willful Breach of this Agreement prior to the date of such termination (which, for the avoidance of doubt, will be deemed to include any failure by Purchaser to consummate the Closing if and when it is obligated to do so hereunder). Subject to Section 10.12, nothing in this Section 8.2 will be deemed to impair the right of any Party to be entitled to specific performance or other equitable remedies to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

ARTICLE IX

TAXES

9.1 Transfer Taxes. Any U.S. federal, Canadian federal, state, provincial, local, municipal, and non-U.S. sales, consumption sales, goods and services, harmonized sales, use, excise, value added, registration, real property, deed, land transfer, retail sales, mutations, purchase, transfer, franchise, deed, fixed asset, stamp, documentary stamp, duties on the transfer of immovables or other Taxes and recording charges (including all related interest, penalties, and additions to any of the foregoing) payable by reason of the purchase or sale of the Acquired Assets or the assumption of the Assumed Liabilities under this Agreement or the Transactions (the “Transfer Taxes”) shall be borne and timely paid by Purchaser, and Purchaser shall timely file all Tax Returns related to any Transfer Taxes with the appropriate Taxing Authority. Purchaser or Designated Purchaser shall pay any Transfer Taxes to the Sellers or directly to the relevant

37

Governmental Body as and when required under applicable Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and in accordance with subsections 221(2) and 228(4) of the Excise Tax Act (Canada) and sections 423 and 438 of An Act respecting the Québec sales tax (Quebec), Sellers shall not collect the GST/HST and, if applicable, QST with respect to the sale of Acquired Real Property in Canada if the Purchaser or Designated Purchaser of such Acquired Real Property is duly registered under the Excise Tax Act (Canada) and, if applicable, An Act respecting the Québec sales tax (Quebec) on the Closing Date and, in that event, such Purchaser or Designated Purchaser (as applicable) shall self-assess, file GST/HST and QST returns and remit such GST/HST and QST to the appropriate Taxing Authority when and to the extent required by such legislation. Purchaser shall indemnify Sellers and the Seller Parties and hold them harmless from any liability under the Excise Tax Act (Canada) and An Act respecting the Québec sales tax (Quebec) arising because of the breach of the obligations of the Purchaser or any Designated Purchaser in respect of the sale, assignment or transfer of and Acquired Real Property in Canada, set out in this Section 9.1 or arising under such legislation.

9.2 Allocation of Purchase Price. For U.S. federal and applicable state and local and foreign income Tax purposes, including Canadian federal and provincial Tax purposes, Purchaser, Sellers, and their respective Affiliates shall allocate the Purchase Price (and any Assumed Liabilities or other amounts treated as part of the purchase price for U.S. federal income Tax purposes) among the Acquired Assets in accordance with the fair market value of the Acquired Assets (the “Allocation Methodology”). As soon as commercially practicable, but no later than thirty (30) days following the determination of the final Purchase Price, Purchaser shall provide a proposed allocation to Sellers setting forth the allocation of the Purchase Price (and other amounts treated as part of the purchase price for U.S. federal income Tax purposes) among the Acquired Assets in accordance with the Allocation Methodology (the “Allocation”) subject to Sellers’ review and approval (such approval not to be unreasonably delayed, conditioned or withheld). Purchaser shall either: (i) incorporate any changes reasonably requested by Sellers with respect to such Allocation; provided that Sellers’ requested Allocation is acceptable to Purchaser; or (ii) within fifteen (15) days after Purchaser’s receipt of Sellers’ requested changes to the Allocation, provide written notice to Sellers that Purchaser objects to Sellers requested Allocation changes (the “Allocation Objection Notice”). If Purchaser timely delivers an Allocation Objection Notice to Sellers or alternatively, if Sellers deliver a written objection within thirty (30) days after receipt of the draft Allocation proposed by Purchaser, then Purchaser and Sellers shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any such objection, and, if Sellers and Purchaser cannot resolve such dispute within thirty (30) days of Purchaser’s receipt of Sellers’ objection, then a recognized industrial real estate brokerage firm specializing in trucking real estate mutually acceptable to Purchaser and Sellers shall resolve such dispute, with the costs of such resolution to be evenly split by Purchaser, on the one hand, and Sellers, on the other hand, and the resolution of such dispute shall be final and binding on the Parties. The Parties and their respective Affiliates shall file all Tax Returns in accordance with such Allocation (as finally determined under this Section 9.2) and not take any Tax related action inconsistent with the Allocation, in each case, unless otherwise required by a “determination” within the meaning of section 1313(a) of the Tax Code and other applicable Law.

38

9.3 Cooperation. Purchaser and Sellers shall reasonably cooperate, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other Party, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns and any Action, audit, litigation, or other proceeding with respect to Taxes.

9.4 Preparation of Tax Returns and Payment of Taxes.

(a) Except as otherwise provided by Section 9.1, Sellers shall prepare and timely file (i) all Tax Returns with respect to the Acquired Assets for any Tax period ending on or before the Closing Date and (ii) all income Tax Returns of Sellers.

(b) Purchaser shall prepare and timely file all Tax Returns with respect to the Acquired Assets for any Tax period ending after the Closing Date. With respect to any Straddle Period, Purchaser shall prepare such Tax Returns consistent with past practice, and shall provide Sellers or their successors in rights, as applicable, with a draft of such Tax Returns at least 30 days prior to the filing of any such Tax Return. Purchaser shall incorporate any changes reasonably requested by Sellers with respect to such Tax Returns. Purchaser shall be responsible for paying any Taxes reflected on any Tax Return that Purchaser is obligated to prepare and file under this Section 9.4(b).

(c) Purchaser shall not file any Tax Return, file an amendment to any previously-filed Tax Return, or otherwise take any Tax position, in each case, that has the effect of increasing any Tax that is payable or otherwise borne by Sellers.

ARTICLE X

MISCELLANEOUS

10.1 Non-Survival of Representations and Warranties and Certain Covenants; Certain Waivers. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else contained herein or elsewhere to the contrary, each of the Sellers’ representations and warranties and the covenants and agreements (to the extent such covenant or agreement contemplates or requires performance by such Party prior to the Closing) of the Parties set forth in this Agreement or in any other document contemplated hereby, or in any certificate delivered hereunder or thereunder, will terminate effective immediately as of the Closing such that no claim for breach of any such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement, detrimental reliance or other right or remedy (whether in contract, in tort or at law or in equity) may be brought with respect thereto after the Closing. Each covenant and agreement that explicitly contemplates performance after the Closing, will, in each case and to such extent, expressly survive the Closing in accordance with its terms, and if no term is specified, then for five years following the Closing Date, and nothing in this Section 10.1 will be deemed to limit any rights or remedies of any Person for breach of any such surviving covenant or agreement. Purchaser and Sellers acknowledge and agree, on their own behalf, with respect to Purchaser, and on behalf of the Purchaser Group that the agreements contained in (among others) Section 6.10, Section 6.12, and this Section 10.1 require performance after the Closing to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law and will survive the Closing for five years. Purchaser on behalf of itself and the other members of the Purchaser Group hereby waives all rights and remedies with respect to any environmental, health or safety matters, including those arising under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, or any other Environmental Laws, relating to this Agreement or the Transactions.

39

10.2 Expenses. Whether or not the Closing takes place, except as otherwise provided herein, all fees, costs and expenses (including fees, costs and expenses of Advisors) incurred in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement and the other agreements contemplated hereby, the performance of this Agreement and the other agreements contemplated hereby and the consummation of the Transactions will be paid by the Party incurring such fees, costs and expenses; it being acknowledged and agreed that (a) all fees and expenses in connection with any filing or submission required under the HSR Act, the Competition Act, and the Antitrust Laws or other regulations set forth in Schedule 7.1 will be allocated pursuant to Section 6.3, (b) all Transfer Taxes will be allocated pursuant to Section 9.1 and (c) all Cure Costs will be allocated pursuant to Section 5.2.

10.4 Binding Effect; Assignment.

(a) This Agreement shall be binding upon Purchaser and, subject to the terms of the Bidding Procedures Order and the Canadian Bidding Procedures Recognition Order (in each case, with respect to the matters covered thereby) and the entry and terms of the Sale Order and the Canadian Sale Recognition Order, Sellers, and shall inure to the benefit of and be so binding on the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns, including any trustee or estate representative appointed in the Bankruptcy Cases or any successor Chapter 7 cases or any trustee, receiver, or monitor appointed in any Canadian bankruptcy, proposal, receivership or CCAA proceedings in respect of any Seller, including within the Canadian Recognition Proceedings; provided that, subject to Section 10.4(b), neither this Agreement nor any of the rights or obligations hereunder may be assigned or delegated without the prior written consent of Purchaser and Yellow, and any attempted assignment or delegation without such prior written consent shall be null and void; provided further that Purchaser (subject to Purchaser remaining liable for its obligations hereunder in the event such obligations are not performed in accordance with their terms) may assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder to any of its Affiliates without the consent of any Person.

41

(b) At any time following entry of the Sale Order and prior to the Closing, Purchaser shall be entitled to designate, by written notice to Sellers, one or more Affiliates to (i) purchase the Acquired Assets and pay the corresponding Purchase Price amount or (ii) assume the Assumed Liabilities (any such Affiliates that shall be designated in accordance with this clause, a “Designated Purchaser”). In addition, and for the avoidance of doubt, a Designated Purchaser shall be entitled to perform any other covenants or agreements of Purchaser under this Agreement. Further notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Purchaser in its sole discretion may, by written notice delivered to Sellers no later than five (5) business days prior to the Closing Date, designate a Designated Purchaser to take title to any Acquired Real Property. Subject to this paragraph, this Agreement and the provisions hereof shall be binding upon each of such parties, their successors and permitted assigns and Purchaser shall remain primarily liable until the transfer to any such Designated Purchaser and the satisfaction by such Designated Purchaser of any related obligations or other Liabilities hereunder.

(c) Purchaser acknowledges and agrees to comply with the anti-collusion requirements of the Bidding Procedures Order and the Bankruptcy Code.

10.5 Amendment and Waiver. Except as set forth in Section 11.4, any provision of this Agreement or the Schedules or exhibits hereto may be (a) amended only in a writing signed by Purchaser and Sellers or (b) waived only in a writing executed by the Party against which enforcement of such waiver is sought. No waiver of any provision hereunder or any breach or default thereof will extend to or affect in any way any other provision or prior or subsequent breach or default.

10.6 Third Party Beneficiaries. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, nothing expressed or referred to in this Agreement will be construed to give any Person other than (i) for purposes of Section 10.7, the Non-Recourse Parties, (ii) for purposes of Section 6.6(e) and Section 6.12, the Seller Parties, and (iii) the Parties hereto and such permitted assigns, any legal or equitable right, remedy, or claim under or with respect to this Agreement or any provision of this Agreement.

10.7 Non-Recourse. This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any Action based upon, arising out of or related to this Agreement may only be brought against, the Persons that are expressly named as parties to this Agreement. Except to the extent named as a party to this Agreement, and then only to the extent of the specific obligations of such parties set forth in this Agreement, no past, present or future shareholder, member, partner, manager, director, officer, employee, Affiliate, agent or Advisor of any Party (each, a “Non-Recourse Party”) will have any Liability (whether in contract, tort, equity or otherwise) for any of the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or other obligations or Liabilities of any of the parties to this Agreement or for any Agreement Dispute (as defined herein), and in no event shall any Party have any shared or vicarious liability, or otherwise be the subject of legal or equitable claims, for the actions, omissions or fraud (including through equitable claims (such as unjust enrichment) not requiring proof of wrongdoing committed by the subject of such claims) of any other Person.

42

10.8 Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable Law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable Law in any jurisdiction, such provision will be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity in such jurisdiction, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement or in any other jurisdiction.

10.9 Construction. The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the Parties to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction will be applied against any Person. The headings of the sections and paragraphs of this Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only and will in no way restrict or otherwise modify any of the terms or provisions hereof.

10.10 Schedules. The Schedules have been arranged for purposes of convenience in separately numbered sections corresponding to the sections of this Agreement; provided that each section of the Schedules will be deemed to incorporate by reference all information disclosed in any other section of the Schedules, and any disclosure in the Schedules will be deemed a disclosure against any representation or warranty set forth in this Agreement. Capitalized terms used in the Schedules and not otherwise defined therein have the meanings given to them in this Agreement. The specification of any dollar amount or the inclusion of any item in the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement, the Schedules or the attached exhibits is not intended to imply that the amounts, or higher or lower amounts, or the items so included, or other items, are or are not required to be disclosed (including whether such amounts or items are required to be disclosed as material or threatened) or are within or outside of the Ordinary Course, and no Party will use the fact of the setting of the amounts or the fact of the inclusion of any item in this Agreement, the Schedules or exhibits in any dispute or controversy between the Parties as to whether any obligation, item or matter not set forth or included in this Agreement, the Schedules or exhibits is or is not required to be disclosed (including whether the amount or items are required to be disclosed as material or threatened) or are within or outside of the Ordinary Course. In addition, matters reflected in the Schedules are not necessarily limited to matters required by this Agreement to be reflected in the Schedules. Such additional matters are set forth for informational purposes only and do not necessarily include other matters of a similar nature. No information set forth in the Schedules will be deemed to broaden in any way the scope of the Parties’ representations and warranties. Any description of any agreement, document, instrument, plan, arrangement or other item set forth on any Schedule is qualified in its entirety by the terms of such agreement, document, instrument, plan, arrangement, or item which terms will be deemed disclosed for all purposes of this Agreement. The information contained in this Agreement, in the Schedules and exhibits hereto is disclosed solely for purposes of this Agreement, and no information contained herein or therein will be deemed to be an admission by any Party to any third party of any matter whatsoever, including any violation of Law or breach of Contract.

10.11 Complete Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Confidentiality Agreement and any other agreements expressly referred to herein or therein, contains the entire agreement of the Parties respecting the sale and purchase of the Acquired Assets and the Assumed Liabilities and the Transactions and supersedes all prior agreements among the Parties respecting the sale and purchase of the Acquired Assets and the Assumed Liabilities and the Transactions. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises with respect to this Agreement,

43

the terms and provisions of the execution version of this Agreement will control and prior drafts of this Agreement and the documents referenced herein will not be considered or analyzed for any purpose (including in support of parol evidence proffered by any Person in connection with this Agreement), will be deemed not to provide any evidence as to the meaning of the provisions hereof or the intent of the Parties with respect hereto and will be deemed joint work product of the Parties.

10.12 Specific Performance. The Parties agree that irreparable damage, for which monetary relief, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that any provision of this Agreement is not performed in accordance with its specific terms or is otherwise breached, including if any of the Parties fails to take any action required of it hereunder to consummate the Transactions. It is accordingly agreed that (a) the Parties will be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, specific performance or other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in the courts described in Section 10.13 without proof of damages or otherwise, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled under this Agreement, and (b) the right of specific performance and other equitable relief is an integral part of the Transactions and without that right, neither Sellers nor Purchaser would have entered into this Agreement. The Parties acknowledge and agree that any Party pursuing an injunction or injunctions or other Order to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in accordance with this Section 10.12 will not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such Order. The remedies available to Sellers pursuant to this Section 10.12 will be in addition to any other remedy to which they were entitled at law or in equity, and the election to pursue an injunction or specific performance will not restrict, impair or otherwise limit any Seller from seeking to collect or collecting damages. If, prior to the Outside Date, any Party brings any action, in each case in accordance with Section 10.13, to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions hereof by any other Party, the Outside Date will automatically be extended (i) for the period during which such action is pending, plus ten Business Days or (ii) by such other time period established by the court presiding over such action, as the case may be.

11.3 Rules of Interpretation. Unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the following will apply to this Agreement, the Schedules and any other certificate, instrument, agreement or other document contemplated hereby or delivered hereunder.

(a) The terms “hereof,” “herein” and “hereunder” and terms of similar import are references to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement. Section, clause, Schedule and exhibit references contained in this Agreement are references to sections, clauses, Schedules and exhibits in or to this Agreement, unless otherwise specified.

Any capitalized terms used in any Schedule or Exhibit but not otherwise defined therein shall be defined as set forth in this Agreement.

(b) Whenever the words “include,” “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they will be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” Where the context permits, the use of the term “or” will be equivalent to the use of the term “and/or.”

(d) When calculating the period of time before which, within which or following which any act is to be done or step taken pursuant to this Agreement, the date that is the reference date in calculating such period will be excluded.

(e) Words denoting any gender will include all genders, including the neutral gender. Where a word is defined herein, references to the singular will include references to the plural and vice versa.

(h) All references to a day or days will be deemed to refer to a calendar day or calendar days, as applicable, unless otherwise specifically provided.

(j) Any reference to any agreement or Contract will be a reference to such agreement or Contract, as amended, modified, supplemented or waived.

57

(k) Any reference to any particular Bankruptcy Code or Tax Code section or any Law will be interpreted to include any amendment to, revision of or successor to that section or Law regardless of how it is numbered or classified; provided that, for the purposes of the representations and warranties set forth herein, with respect to any violation of or non-compliance with, or alleged violation of or non-compliance, with any Bankruptcy Code or Tax Code section or Law, the reference to such Bankruptcy Code or Tax Code section or Law means such Bankruptcy Code or Tax Code section or Law as in effect at the time of such violation or non-compliance or alleged violation or non-compliance.

(l) A reference to any Party to this Agreement or any other agreement or document shall include such Party’s successors and assigns, but only if such successors and assigns are not prohibited by this Agreement.
