(l) The Initial Purchasers shall have received the results of a recent lien search in each of the jurisdictions where assets of the Company and the Guarantors are located and any jurisdictions in which valid filings with respect to such assets of the Company and the Guarantors may be in effect, and such search shall reveal no liens on any of the assets of the Company, the Guarantors or any of their respective subsidiaries except (i) as described in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Memorandum (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto after the date hereof) and (ii) those pursuant to the ABL Facility.
(m) Except as otherwise provided for in the Security Documents, the Indenture or the other documents entered into pursuant to the transactions described herein, the Representative and the Collateral Agent shall have received each of the Security Documents, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Initial Purchasers, and all other certificates, agreements or instruments necessary to perfect the Collateral Agent’s security interest in all of the Collateral.

All such documents, opinions, certificates, letters, schedules or instruments delivered pursuant to this Agreement will comply with the provisions hereof only if they are reasonably satisfactory in all material respects to the Initial Purchasers and counsel for the Initial Purchasers. The Company shall furnish to the Initial Purchasers such conformed copies of such documents, opinions, certificates, letters, schedules and instruments in such quantities as the Initial Purchasers shall reasonably request.
Section 7.Offering of Notes; Restrictions on Transfer.
(a)Each of the Initial Purchasers agrees with the Company (as to itself only) that (i) it has not and will not solicit offers for, or offer or sell, the Notes by any form of general solicitation or general advertising (as those terms are used in Regulation D under the Act) or in any manner involving a public offering within the meaning of Section 4(a)(2) of the Act; and (ii) it has and will solicit offers for the Notes only from, and will offer the Notes only to (A) persons whom the Initial Purchasers reasonably believe to be QIBs or, if any such person is buying for one or more institutional accounts for which such person is acting as fiduciary or
agent, only when such person has represented to the Initial Purchasers that each such account is a QIB, to whom notice has been given that such sale or delivery is being made in reliance on Rule 144A, and, in each case, in transactions under Rule 144A and (B) outside the United States, to persons other than U.S. persons (“non-U.S. purchasers,” which term shall include dealers or other professional fiduciaries in the United States acting on a discretionary basis for non-U.S. beneficial owners (other than an estate or trust)); provided, however, that, in the case of this clause (B), in purchasing such Notes, such persons are deemed to have represented and agreed as provided under the caption “Notice to Investors” contained in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Memorandum.
(b)Each of the Initial Purchasers represents and warrants (as to itself only) with respect to sales outside the United States that (i) the Notes have not been and will not be sold within the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons except in accordance with Regulation S under the Act or pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Act; and (ii) it will sell the Notes (A) as part of its distribution at any time and (B) otherwise until 40 days after the later of the commencement of the offering and the Closing Date, only in accordance with Rule 903 of Regulation S or another available exemption from registration under the Act and, accordingly, neither it nor any persons acting on its behalf have engaged or will engage in any directed selling efforts (within the meaning of Regulation S) with respect to the Notes, and any such persons have complied and will comply with the offering restrictions requirement of Regulation S.
(c)Each Initial Purchaser, severally and not jointly represents and warrants and agrees with the Company and the Guarantors that:
(i) it has only communicated or caused to be communicated and will only communicate or cause to be communicated an invitation or inducement to engage in investment activity (within the meaning of Section 21 of the United Kingdom Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (the “FSMA”)) received by it in connection with the issue or sale of the Notes in circumstances in which Section 21(1) of the FSMA does not apply to the Company or any Guarantor; and
(ii) it has complied and will comply with all applicable provisions of the FSMA with respect to anything done by it in relation to the Notes in, from or otherwise involving the United Kingdom.
Terms used in this Section 7 and not defined in this Agreement have the meanings given to them in Regulation S.
Section 8.Indemnification and Contribution.
(a) The Company and each Guarantor jointly and severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Initial Purchaser, its Affiliates and its and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents and each person, if any, who controls any Initial Purchaser within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or other U.S. federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as any such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon the following:
(i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Pricing Disclosure Package, any Issuer Written Communication or Final
Memorandum or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any materials or information provided to investors by, or with the approval of, the Company or the Guarantors, including any roadshow or investor presentations made to investors by the Company (whether in person or electronically); or
(ii) the omission or alleged omission to state, in the Pricing Disclosure Package, any Issuer Written Communication or the Final Memorandum or any amendment or supplement thereto, a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;
and will reimburse, as incurred, the Initial Purchasers, their respective Affiliates and each such director, officer, employee, agent and controlling person for any reasonable and documented legal or other expenses incurred by the Initial Purchasers, their respective Affiliates or such director, officer, employee, agent or controlling person in connection with investigating, defending against or preparing to defend against or in connection with any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, the Company and the Guarantors will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, or liability arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Pricing Disclosure Package or Final Memorandum or any amendment or supplement thereto in reliance upon and in conformity with written information concerning the Initial Purchasers furnished to the Company and the Guarantors by the Initial Purchasers through the Representative specifically for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by or on behalf of any Initial Purchaser consists of the information described as such in Section 11 hereof. The indemnity provided for in this Section 8(a) will be in addition to any liability that the Company and the Guarantors may otherwise have to the indemnified parties.
(b) Each Initial Purchaser, severally and not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, the Guarantors, each of their respective directors, officers, employees and agents and each person, if any, who controls the Company or such Guarantor within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company, the Guarantors or any such director, officer or controlling person may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Pricing Disclosure Package or Final Memorandum or any amendment or supplement thereto, or (ii) the omission or the alleged omission to state in the Pricing Disclosure Package or Final Memorandum or any amendment or supplement thereto, a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information concerning such Initial Purchaser, furnished to the Company or the Guarantors by such Initial Purchaser through the Representative specifically for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by or on behalf of any Initial Purchaser consists of the information described as such in Section 11 hereof; and subject to the limitation set forth immediately preceding this clause, will reimburse, as incurred, any legal or other expenses incurred by the Company, the Guarantors, each of their respective directors, officers, employees and agents and each person, if any, who controls the Company or such Guarantor within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act in connection with investigating or defending against or preparing to defend against or in connection with any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action in respect thereof. The indemnity provided for in this Section 8(b) will be in addition to any liability that the Initial Purchasers may otherwise have to the indemnified parties.
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 8 of notice of the commencement of any action for which such indemnified party is entitled to indemnification under this Section 8, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 8, notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof in writing; but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve it from any liability under paragraph (a) or (b) above, except to the extent it is materially prejudiced by such failure (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraphs (a) or (b) above. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel (including local counsels) reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided, however, that if (i) the use of counsel (including local counsels) chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest, (ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, based on the advice of counsel, shall have reasonably concluded that there may be one or more legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after receipt by the indemnifying party of notice of the institution of such action, or (iv) the indemnifying party has authorized in writing the employment of counsel for the indemnified party at the expense of the indemnifying party, then, in each such case, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties and such indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel (including local counsels) to defend such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. After notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof and approval by such indemnified party of counsel appointed to defend such action, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 8 for any legal or other expenses, other than reasonable costs of investigation, subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof, unless the indemnified party shall have employed separate counsel in accordance with the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that in connection with such action the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel (in addition to local counsels) in any one action or separate but substantially similar actions, designated by the Representative in the case of paragraph (a) of this Section 8 or the Company and the Guarantors in the case of paragraph (b) of this Section 8, representing the indemnified parties under such paragraph (a) or paragraph (b), as the case may be, who are parties to such action or actions). All fees and expenses reimbursed pursuant to this paragraph (c) shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. After such notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party, the indemnifying party will not be liable for the costs and expenses of any settlement of such action effected by such indemnified party without the prior written consent of the indemnifying party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), unless such indemnified party waived in writing its rights under this Section 8, in which case the indemnified party may effect such a settlement without such consent. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify each indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested that an indemnifying party reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by this paragraph, the indemnifying party
shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by the indemnifying party of such request and (ii) the indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement or compromise of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party, or indemnity could have been sought hereunder by any indemnified party, unless such settlement (A) includes an unconditional written release of the indemnified party, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (B) does not include any statement as to an admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of such indemnified party.
(d) In circumstances in which the indemnity agreement provided for in the preceding paragraphs of this Section 8 is unavailable to, or insufficient to hold harmless, an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), each indemnifying party, in order to provide for just and equitable contribution, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect (i) the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other from the offering of the Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by the foregoing clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions or alleged statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof). The relative benefits received by the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand and any Initial Purchaser on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand and the total discounts and commissions received by such Initial Purchaser. The relative fault of the parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand, or such Initial Purchaser on the other, the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission or alleged statement or omission, and any other equitable considerations appropriate in the circumstances. For purposes of the preceding two sentences, the net proceeds deemed to be received by the Company shall be deemed to be also for the benefit of the Guarantors, and information supplied by the Company shall also be deemed to have been supplied by the Guarantors. The Company, the Guarantors and the Initial Purchasers agree that it would not be equitable if the amount of such contribution were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in the first sentence of this paragraph (d). Notwithstanding any other provision of this paragraph (d), no Initial Purchaser shall be obligated to make contributions hereunder that in the aggregate exceed the total discounts and commissions received by such Initial Purchaser under this Agreement, less the aggregate amount of any damages that such Initial Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by reason of the untrue or alleged untrue statements or the omissions or alleged omissions to state a material fact, and no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this paragraph (d), each Affiliate of an Initial Purchaser and the respective directors, officers, employees and agents of such Initial Purchasers and such Affiliate and each person, if any, who controls an Initial Purchaser within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Initial Purchasers, and each
director, officer, employee and agent of the Company or such Guarantor and each person, if any, who controls the Company or such Guarantor within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company and such Guarantor. The Initial Purchasers’ obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 8 are several in proportion to their respective purchase obligations hereunder and not joint.
Section 9.Survival Clause. The respective representations, warranties, agreements, covenants, indemnities and other statements of the Company and the Guarantors, their respective officers and the Initial Purchasers set forth in this Agreement or made by or on behalf of them pursuant to this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf the Company, any Guarantor, the Initial Purchasers, each Affiliate of an Initial Purchaser and any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents, or any controlling person referred to in Section 8 hereof and (ii) delivery of and payment for the Securities. The respective agreements, covenants, indemnities and other statements set forth in Sections 5, 8, 9, 11 and 14 hereof shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any termination or cancellation of this Agreement.
Section 10.Termination.
(a)This Agreement may be terminated in the sole discretion of the Representative by notice to the Company given prior to the Closing Date in the event that prior to the Closing Date:
(i) any of the Company, the Guarantors or their respective subsidiaries shall have sustained any loss or interference with respect to its businesses or properties from fire, flood, hurricane, accident or other calamity, whether or not covered by insurance, or from any strike, labor dispute, slow down or work stoppage or any legal or governmental proceeding, which loss or interference, in the reasonable judgment of the Representative, has had or has a Material Adverse Effect, or there shall have been, in the reasonable judgment of the Representative, any event or development that, individually or in the aggregate, has or could be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect (including without limitation a change in control of the Company, the Guarantors or any of their respective subsidiaries), except in each case as described in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Memorandum (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto);
(ii) trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange, American Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq Global Market shall have been suspended or materially limited or minimum or maximum prices shall have been established on any such exchange or market;
(iii) trading of any securities issued or guaranteed by WSMM, the Company or any of the Guarantors shall have been suspended on any exchange or in any over-the-counter market;
(iv) a banking moratorium shall have been declared by New York or United States authorities or a material disruption in commercial banking or securities settlement or clearance services in the United States;
(v) there shall have been (A) an outbreak or escalation of hostilities between the United States and any foreign power, or (B) an outbreak or escalation of any other insurrection or armed conflict involving the United States or any other national or international calamity or emergency, or (C) any material change in the financial markets of the United States which, in the case of (A), (B) or (C) above and in the reasonable
judgment of the Initial Purchasers, makes it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering, sale or the delivery of the Notes as contemplated by the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Memorandum; or
(vi) any securities of the Company or any Guarantor shall have been downgraded by any nationally recognized statistical rating organization or any such organization shall have publicly announced that it has under surveillance or review, or has changed its outlook with respect to, its ratings of any securities of the Company or any Guarantor (other than an announcement with positive implications of a possible upgrading).
(b)Termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10 shall be without liability of any party to any other party except as provided in Section 5 and Section 9 hereof.

This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Initial Purchasers, the Company, the Guarantors and their respective successors and legal representatives, and nothing expressed or mentioned in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any other person any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement, or any provisions herein contained; this Agreement and all conditions and provisions hereof being intended to be and being for the sole and exclusive benefit of such persons and for the benefit of no other person except that (a) the indemnities of the Company and the Guarantors contained in Section 8 of this Agreement shall also be for each Initial Purchaser’s Affiliates and its and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents and for the benefit of any person or persons who control the Initial Purchasers within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act and (b) the indemnities of the Initial Purchasers contained in Section 8 of this Agreement shall also be for the benefit of the directors of the Company and the Guarantors, their respective officers and any person or persons who control the Company or any Guarantor within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act. No purchaser of Notes from the Initial Purchasers will be deemed a successor because of such purchase.

Section 15.No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. The Company and the Guarantors acknowledge and agree that (a) the purchase and sale of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement is an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Company and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other, (b) in connection therewith and with the process leading to such transaction, each Initial Purchaser is acting solely as a principal and not the agent or fiduciary of the Company or the Guarantors, (c) no Initial Purchaser has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Company or the Guarantors with respect to the offering contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether such Initial Purchaser has advised or is currently advising the Company or the Guarantors on other matters) or any other obligation to the Company or the Guarantors except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement and (d) the Company and the Guarantors have consulted their own legal and financial advisors to the extent they deem appropriate.
