Beginning thirty (30) days after delivery of any Dispute Notice pursuant to Section 2.11.3, either Parent or the Holders’ Representative may provide written notice to the other (the “Dispute Submission Notice”) that it elects to submit the disputed items to KPMG LLP or, if KPMG LLP has not agreed to act as the Accounting Firm, another nationally recognized independent accounting firm

-20-

chosen jointly by Parent and the Holders’ Representative (the “Accounting Firm”). In the event that KPMG LLP has not agreed to act as the Accounting Firm and an alternative Accounting Firm has not been selected by mutual agreement of Parent and the Holders’ Representative within ten (10) days following the giving of the Dispute Submission Notice, each of Parent and the Holders’ Representative shall promptly select an accounting firm and promptly cause such two accounting firms to mutually select a third independent accounting firm to act as the Accounting Firm within twenty (20) days of the giving of the Dispute Submission Notice. The Accounting Firm will promptly, in accordance with the rules set forth in the Accounting Firm’s engagement letter and its customary practices, review only those unresolved items and amounts specifically set forth and objected to in the Dispute Notice and resolve the dispute with respect to each such specific unresolved item and amount in accordance with this Agreement. In any such case, a single partner of the Accounting Firm selected by such Accounting Firm in accordance with its normal procedures and having expertise with respect to settlement of such disputes and the industry in which the Acquired Companies operate shall act for the Accounting Firm in the determination proceeding, and the Accounting Firm shall render a written decision as to each disputed matter, including a statement in reasonable detail of the basis for its decision and its calculation of the Final Purchase Price (as defined below) based on such decision. The parties agree that all adjustments shall be made without regard to materiality. In no event shall the decision of the Accounting Firm provide for a calculation of any element of the Purchase Price that is less than the lower calculation thereof shown in the Proposed Final Closing Statement or in the Dispute Notice or greater than the higher calculation thereof shown in the Proposed Final Closing Statement or in the Dispute Notice. The fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be apportioned among the Holders’ Representative and Parent based upon the relative extent to which the positions of the Holders’ Representative and Parent are upheld by the Accounting Firm. The relative extent to which such positions are upheld will be determined by comparing (a) the difference between the Final Purchase Price as finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.11.4 and the Purchase Price assuming all of the positions asserted by Parent had been upheld in their entirety by the Accounting Firm and (b) the difference between the Final Purchase Price as finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.11.4 and the Purchase Price assuming all of the positions asserted by the Holders’ Representative had been upheld in their entirety by the Accounting Firm. By way of illustration, (i) if Parent’s calculations would have resulted in a $100,000 net payment to Parent, the Holders’ Representative’s calculations would have resulted in a $100,000 net payment to the Holders from Parent and the Accounting Firm’s final determination results in an aggregate net payment of $50,000 to the Holders under Section 2.11.5, Parent and the Holders’ Representative shall pay 75% and 25%, respectively, of such fees and expenses and (ii) if each of such parties’ calculation differs from the Accounting Firm’s calculation by the same amount, Parent and the Holders’ Representative shall split such fees and expenses evenly. The decision of the Accounting Firm with respect to the disputed items of the Proposed Final Closing Statement submitted to it will be final, conclusive and binding on the parties. Each of the parties to this Agreement agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Accounting Firm (including by executing a customary engagement letter reasonably acceptable to it) and to cause the Accounting Firm to resolve any such dispute as soon as practicable after the commencement of the Accounting Firm’s engagement.

-21-

3.2. Organization. The Company is (a) duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and (b) duly qualified or licensed to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction where the character of the properties owned, leased or licensed by it or the nature of its business makes such qualification, licensing or good standing

3.3.

3.3.5. Each such Acquired Company is duly qualified or licensed to do business as a foreign entity, and is in good standing as such, in each jurisdiction where the character of the properties owned, leased or licensed by it or the nature of its business makes such qualification, licensing or good standing necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified or licensed or in good standing has not been or would not reasonably be expected to be material to the Business.

3.3.6. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.3.6, no Acquired Company is a party to any voting trust or other voting agreement with respect to the capital stock or any other Equity Interest of such Acquired Company, or to any agreement relating to the issuance, sale, redemption, transfer or other disposition of the capital stock or any other Equity Interest of such Acquired Company.

7.3.

Confidentiality.

7.3.1. Confidentiality Agreement. The provisions of the Confidentiality Agreement, to the extent not inconsistent with the express terms of this Agreement, are

-46-

hereby ratified, confirmed and agreed to as though fully set forth herein. The Confidentiality Agreement shall remain in effect until the Closing, at which point it shall terminate; provided, however, that the Confidentiality Agreement shall continue to bind Parent regarding the Evaluation Material (as defined in the Confidentiality Agreement) following the Closing.

7.3.2. Announcements. Any public announcements, reports, statements or press releases by any party hereto or any of its Affiliates regarding the Contemplated Transactions must be approved in advance (as to form, content, timing and manner of distribution) by each of Parent and the Holders’ Representative, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, that Parent may issue a press release or make a public announcement or filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission without the approval of the Holders’ Representative to the extent necessary for Parent or its Affiliates to comply with applicable securities laws or NYSE rules. Parent shall provide a copy to the Holders’ Representative of any such press release or announcement that is to be issued or made prior to the Closing in advance of its release such as to provide the Holders’ Representative a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such press release or announcement, and Parent shall consider any such comments by the Holders’ Representative in good faith.

7.4. Preparation for Closing. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each of the Company and Parent agrees to use all commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary or desirable under applicable Legal Requirements to consummate the Contemplated Transactions as promptly as practicable, including preparing and filing as promptly as practicable with the applicable Governmental Authorities all documentation to effect all necessary filings, notices, petitions, statements, registrations, submissions of information, applications and other documents necessary to consummate the Contemplated Transactions. In furtherance (and not in limitation) of the foregoing:

7.4.1. Antitrust Matters. Each of the Company and Parent agrees to file all appropriate notifications and filings pursuant to the HSR Act or any applicable foreign antitrust and competition laws with respect to the Contemplated Transactions in the most expeditious manner practicable, but in any event within ten (10) Business Days after the date hereof and shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to supply promptly any additional information and documentary material that may be requested of such party by the relevant Governmental Authorities in connection with the HSR Act or any applicable foreign antitrust and competition laws. Parent shall pay the filing fees associated with the HSR filings. Each of the Company and Parent agrees not to participate in any substantive meeting or discussion, either in person or by telephone, with any United States or foreign antitrust Governmental Authority in connection with the Contemplated Transactions unless it consults with the other party in advance, if at all possible, and, to the extent not prohibited by such antitrust Governmental Authority, gives the other party the opportunity to attend and participate. To the extent permitted by applicable law and subject to all applicable privileges, including the attorney-client privilege, the Company and Parent will supply each other with copies of all correspondence, filings or communications with antitrust Governmental Authorities, with respect to the

-47-

Contemplated Transactions; provided, that to the extent any of the documents or information are commercially or competitively sensitive, the Company or Parent, as the case may be, may satisfy its obligations by providing such documents or information to the other party’s outside antitrust counsel, with the understanding that such antitrust counsel shall not share such documents and information with its client (although such antitrust counsel may use such documents and information in advocating on behalf of its client with any antitrust Governmental Authority). Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 7.4 or elsewhere in this Agreement, it is expressly understood and agreed that Parent shall not be required to agree to any sale, divestiture or disposition by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, of any shares of capital stock, membership interests or any other equity interests or of any business, assets, or property, or the imposition of any limitation on the ability of any of them to conduct their businesses or to own or exercise control of such assets, properties, stock, membership interests, or other equity interests.

7.4.2. Certain Filings, Etc. Each of Parent and the Company shall cooperate with one another (a) in determining whether any action by or in respect of, or filing with, any Governmental Authority is required, or any actions, consents, approvals or waivers are required to be obtained from third parties to any Material Company Contracts, in connection with the consummation of the Contemplated Transactions and (b) in taking such actions or making any such filings, furnishing information required in connection therewith and seeking timely to obtain any such actions, consents, approvals or waivers; provided, that nothing in this Agreement shall obligate or be construed to obligate any Acquired Company to make or cause to be made any payment or concession to any third party in order to obtain any such action, consent, approval or waiver under any Material Company Contract; provided, further, that the obtaining of any such consents, approvals or waivers shall not be deemed to be conditions to the obligations of the parties to consummate the Contemplated Transactions.

7.5. Business Records. Parent acknowledges that the Holders’ Representative or the Holders may from time to time from and after the Closing require access to the Records for purposes involving any Action (other than an Action between Holders’ Representative or any Holder, on the one hand, and Parent or any of its Affiliates, on the other hand) or any other legitimate business purpose, and agrees that upon reasonable prior notice, it will, and will ensure that the Acquired Companies will, during normal business hours, provide the Holders’ Representative, the Holders and each of their respective Affiliates and their respective Representatives with either access to or copies of the Records for such purposes; provided that Parent may withhold any document (or portions thereof) or information that may constitute privileged attorney-client communications or attorney work product, the transfer of which, or the provision of access to which, as determined in good faith by Parent after consultation with counsel, would reasonably be expected to risk a waiver of such privilege. The Holders’ Representative or such Holder, as applicable shall reimburse Parent for out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Parent in connection with providing the Holders’ Representative or the Holders with access to the Records as provided herein. Parent and the Acquired Companies shall retain all such Records in accordance with Parent’s existing records retention policy.

7.6. Directors and Officers Indemnification and Insurance.

-48-

7.6.1. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, all rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation from liability for acts or omissions occurring in connection with or prior to the Closing now existing in favor of each Person who is now, or has been at any time prior to the date hereof or who becomes prior to the Closing, a director or officer of any Acquired Company (“D&O Indemnified Persons”), including as provided in the Organizational Documents of any Acquired Company, will survive the Closing and will continue in full force and effect in accordance with their respective terms for a period of not less than six (6) years after the Closing Date, notwithstanding any amendment, repeal or modification of such Organization Documents by Parent except as required by Legal Requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 7.6.1, none of the D&O Indemnified Persons shall be entitled to make a claim for indemnification or contribution against any Acquired Company after the Closing by reason of the fact that such D&O Indemnified Person was an officer or director of one of the Acquired Companies or was serving as such for another Person at the request of one of the Acquired Companies (whether such claim is made pursuant to any Legal Requirement, any Organizational Document, any Contract or otherwise) with respect to any indemnification claim brought by a Parent Indemnified Person under this Agreement.

7.6.2. If Parent or any of the Acquired Companies (or any of their respective successors or assigns) transfers all or substantially all of its Equity Interests, properties or assets to any Person, through any single transaction or combination of transactions of any kind, then, and in each such case, Parent will cause proper provision to be made so that such Person fully assumes the obligations set forth in this Section 7.6.2, it being understood and agreed that Parent shall remain fully responsible with respect to its obligations under this Section 7.6.2 notwithstanding any such transfer.

7.6.3. This Section 7.6.3 shall be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each D&O Indemnified Person, and in each case, their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors, administrators and estates, and such Persons shall be express third party beneficiaries of this Agreement for such purposes.

7.7. Attorney-Client Privilege. Parent, on behalf of its itself and its Affiliates (including the Acquired Companies following the Closing) (Parent and all such other Persons, “Parent Related Parties”), hereby waives any claim that Ropes & Xxxx LLP (“Prior Company Counsel”) in connection with this Agreement or its subject matter or the Contemplated Transactions has a conflict of interest or is otherwise prohibited from representing any Holder, the Holders’ Representative or any of their respective officers, directors, members, managers or Affiliates (“Seller Related Parties”) in any dispute with any Parent Related Parties or any other matter involving this Agreement or its subject matter or the Contemplated Transactions, in each case, after the Closing Date, even though the interests of one or more of the Seller Related Parties in such dispute or other matter may be directly adverse to the interests of one or more Parent Related Parties and even though Prior Company Counsel may have represented one or more of the Acquired Companies in a matter substantially related to such dispute or other matter. Parent, on behalf of the Parent Related Parties, hereby covenants and agrees, that, as to all communications between Prior Company Counsel, on the one hand, and any Seller Related Parties or any Acquired Company (with respect to the Acquired Companies, solely prior to the

-49-

Closing), on the other hand, that relate to this Agreement or the Contemplated Transactions, the attorney-client privilege and the expectation of client confidence belong to and shall be controlled by the Holders’ Representative or applicable Holder, and shall not pass to or be claimed by any Parent Related Parties. This Section 7.7 shall survive the Closing and shall remain in effect following the Closing. Without limitation of the foregoing, no Parent Related Parties may use or rely on any communications protected by attorney-client privilege described in the second sentence of this Section 7.7 in any claim, dispute, action, suit or proceeding against or involving any of the Seller Related Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if after the Closing a dispute arises between Parent or the Acquired Companies, on the one hand, and a third party other than (and unaffiliated with) the Holders, on the other hand, then the Company (to the extent applicable) may assert the attorney-client privilege to prevent disclosure to such third party of confidential communications by Prior Company Counsel; provided, however, that neither Parent nor any Acquired Company may waive such privilege without the prior written consent of the Holders’ Representative, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. This Section 7.7 is for the benefit of the Seller Related Parties and Prior Company Counsel, and the Seller Related Parties and Prior Company Counsel are express third party beneficiaries of this Section 7.7. This Section 7.7 shall be irrevocable, and no term of this Section 7.7 may be amended, waived or modified, without the prior written consent of each of the Holders and Prior Company Counsel affected thereby.

7.8. Transfer Taxes. The Holders and Parent shall each be responsible for fifty percent (50%) of all Transfer Taxes in connection with the Contemplated Transactions. The Holders, the Holders’ Representative and Parent shall cooperate in the preparation and filing of any Tax Returns with respect to such Transfer Taxes.

7.9. Tax Matters.

(a) Following the Closing, Parent shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, and timely file or cause to be timely filed, all Tax Returns that are required to be filed for the Acquired Companies that include any Pre-Closing Tax Period and that are due after the Closing Date. Unless otherwise required by Legal Requirements, any such Tax Returns shall be prepared in a manner consistent with all positions taken, methods used, and elections made in prior periods in filing Tax Returns for the Acquired Companies. If any such Tax Returns reflect an amount of Taxes for which Parent reasonably would expect to be indemnified hereunder, (i) before filing any such Tax Return, Parent shall provide Holders’ Representative with a copy of such Tax Return at least thirty (30) days prior to the last date for timely filing such Tax Return (giving effect to any valid extensions thereof), (ii) Parent consider any proposed revisions thereto of the Holders’ Representative in good faith and (iii) if such Tax Return is for a taxable period that ends on or before the Closing Date, Parent shall not file such Tax Return without the consent of the Holders’ Representative, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. For the avoidance of doubt, any deductible transaction expenses, including any investment banking or other professional service fees and expenses, paid by or on behalf of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries on or before the Closing Date shall be claimed by the Company for all income Tax purposes as a deduction for the relevant taxable year ending on or before the Closing Date unless otherwise required by an applicable Legal Requirement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this

-50-

Agreement (including Article 9), the Holders and the Holders’ Representative shall have no Liability under this Agreement (including via the Escrow Agreement) with respect to (and Parent shall pay or cause to be paid) (x) any Taxes that were taken into account in the calculation of Net Working Capital, (y) Taxes incurred as a result of actions outside the ordinary course of business taken at the direction of Parent after the Effective Time on the Closing Date or (z) Taxes that are incurred with respect to any period that is not a Pre-Closing Tax Period, unless such Taxes are (1) attributable to any breach of any representation made in Section 3.8.2 (but only to the extent such Taxes are described in clause (e) of the definition of Indemnified Taxes or clause (b) of the definition of Seller Transaction Expenses (to the extent not already taken into account as a Seller Transaction Expense hereunder)), Section 3.8.11, Section 3.8.14 or Section 3.8.15 or the breach of the covenant made in Section 7.8 or (2) ancillary to indemnifiable Losses in connection with the breach of any representation by the Company that is not a Tax representation contained in Section 3.8 (other than the representations set forth in the preceding clause (1)), in each case subject to the terms of Article 9 (e.g., if there are indemnifiable Losses under this Agreement for back wages as a result of the Company’s breach of a representation contained in Section 3.19.1, such indemnifiable Losses shall extend to any employer payroll Taxes payable as a result of the payment of such back wages after the Closing Date, subject to the terms of Article 9).

(b) Following the Closing, unless as a result of the discovery of continued errors with respect to the matters described in Section 3.8.17 or in connection with the matters described in Section 7.9(d), neither Parent nor any Acquired Company shall amend any Tax Return that includes any Pre-Closing Tax Period, which amendment reasonably would be expected to result in the indemnification of Parent for Taxes hereunder, without the prior written consent of the Holders’ Representative (which will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(c) Any refunds (including, for the avoidance of doubt, overpayments of estimated Taxes) of, or credits against, Taxes of, or with respect to, the Acquired Companies for any Pre-Closing Tax Period that were not taken into account as a current asset in calculating Net Working Capital and which Taxes were paid prior to the Closing or for which the Holders bore the economic incidence (including via the Escrow Agreement or otherwise pursuant to Section 9.2 hereof) hereunder will be for the benefit of the Holders, and Parent or the Company will forward the amount of any such refunds (whether received as a refund or as a credit against or an offset of Taxes otherwise payable), net of any expenses (including Taxes) incurred by Parent, the Company or any Acquired Company in seeking or securing such refund or amount credited against Tax, together with any interest thereon, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to (i) the Stockholders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares and (ii) to the Surviving Corporation to be distributed to the Option Holders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares in the next payroll period thereafter, in each case, within ten (10) days of receipt; provided, however, that such refunds or amounts credited against Tax shall not include any refunds or amounts credited attributable to the carryback of any credit, net operating loss, capital loss deduction or other similar Tax attribute arising in a Post-Closing Tax Period that does not reduce the amount of refund that would otherwise be for the benefit of the Holders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any refund or credit

-51-

giving rise to any payment to the Holders pursuant to this Section 7.9(c) is subsequently disallowed or reduced, the Holders shall indemnify and hold harmless the Parent, the Company and the Acquired Companies for and against any Tax, or other cost to them, that is attributable to such reduction or disallowance; provided that the exposure of the Holders under this sentence shall be limited to the amount of such refund or credit. Parent shall, if the Holders’ Representative reasonably requests and at the expense of the Holders’ Representative, cause the relevant entity to file for and obtain any refunds or credits to which the Holders would be entitled under this Section 7.9(c); provided, however, Parent shall not be so obligated to file for and obtain any such refunds or credits if doing so reasonably would be expected to result in any increase the Tax liabilities, or any reduction in the Tax attributes, of Parent or its Affiliates for any Post-Closing Tax Period. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, Parent’s obligations under this Section 7.9(c) shall survive only until the date on which the Parent Indemnified Persons shall no longer be entitled to indemnification for any Taxes under either Section 9.2.1(a)(i) or Section 9.2.1(b)(ii).

(d) Following the Closing, Parent shall have the right to cause Medefis, Inc. to contact the Taxing Authority of any state listed on Schedule 7.9(d) with respect to which Parent in good faith believes that Medefis, Inc. had an obligation to file a sales Tax Return or pay sales Taxes for any Pre-Closing Tax Period that is not closed and is still subject to assessment, but with respect to which Medefis, Inc. has not filed a sales Tax Return or has not paid (or has underreported) sales Taxes for such period. Any such contact shall be for the purpose of determining whether Medefis, Inc. should voluntarily disclose information regarding its sales activities with respect to such jurisdiction with a view toward entering into a sales Tax voluntary disclosure agreement with such jurisdiction regarding the payment of sales Taxes, and Parent shall make such determination in its reasonable good faith discretion. Parent will control the process of voluntarily providing information to the relevant jurisdictions of the sales activities of Medefis, Inc., but the Holders’ Representative may at any time elect to participate in any such process at its own expense.

(e) Parent, the Company and the Holders’ Representative will, and will cause their respective Affiliates to, provide each other with such cooperation and information as any of them reasonably may request in connection with any Tax matters relating to the Acquired Companies. Such cooperation and information will include providing copies of relevant Tax Returns or portions thereof, together with accompanying schedules, related work papers and documents relating to rulings or other determinations by Taxing Authorities. Parent and Holders’ Representative will retain, or cause the Company to retain, all Tax Returns, schedules and work papers, records and other documents in its respective possession relating to Tax matters of the Acquired Companies for all Pre-Closing Tax Periods until the later of (i) the expiration of the statute of limitations of the taxable periods to which such Tax Returns and other documents relate or (ii) six years following the due date (without extension) for such Tax Returns. Any information obtained under this Section 7.9(e) will be kept confidential except as may be otherwise necessary in connection with the filing of Tax Returns or claims for refund or in conducting an audit or other proceeding.

-52-

(f) No election under Section 338(g) of the Code, or any similar provision of state, local or foreign law, may be made with respect to the Contemplated Transactions.

(g) Parent shall promptly notify the Holders’ Representative in writing of the commencement of any audit or examination of any Tax Return of any Acquired Company for any Pre-Closing Tax Period (a “Tax Examination”). Parent shall keep the Holders’ Representative reasonably informed of the status and progress of such Tax Examination and the Holders’ Representative will have the opportunity to participate in such Tax Examination at its expense. In addition, Parent shall promptly notify the Holders’ Representative in writing of the commencement of any proposed change or adjustment, claim, dispute, arbitration or litigation related to a Pre-Closing Tax Period (including as a result of a Tax Examination) that, if sustained, would reasonably be expected to give rise to a claim for indemnification by Parent in respect of Taxes under this Agreement (a “Tax Claim”). Such notice of a Tax Claim shall describe the asserted Tax Claim in reasonable detail and shall include copies of any notices and other documents received from any Taxing Authority in respect of any such asserted Tax Claim. If Holders’ Representative acknowledges in writing the responsibility of the Holders for any Taxes that may result from a Tax Claim, the Holders’ Representative shall have the right to control any Tax Claims related solely to taxable periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date; provided, however, that the Holders’ Representative shall inform Parent of the status and progress of such Tax Claim and that Parent will have the opportunity to participate in such Tax Claim at its expense. The Holders’ Representative may not settle any such Tax Claim (either at the audit or examination stage or thereafter) without first obtaining Parent’s consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). In the event that Holders’ Representative does not exercise its right to control any such Tax Claim, and with respect to any Tax Claim that does not relate solely to a taxable period ending on or prior to the Closing Date, Parent shall control such Tax Claim; provided, however, that Parent shall inform the Holders’ Representative of the status and progress of such Tax Claim and the Holders’ Representative will have the opportunity to participate in such Tax Claim at its expense. Parent shall not settle any such Tax Claim (either at the audit or examination stage or thereafter) without first obtaining the Holders’ Representative’s consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(h) Unless otherwise required by an applicable Legal Requirement, the parties agree to treat the agreements or actions contemplated by Section 5.14 as not resulting in the recognition of any taxable income by any Acquired Company for all income Tax purposes.

7.10. Exclusivity. From the date of this Agreement until the Closing, or the earlier termination of this Agreement in accordance with Article 8, the Company shall not (and the Company shall not cause any of its Representatives to) solicit, initiate, encourage or respond to the submission of any proposal or offer from any Person relating to, or enter into or consummate any transaction relating to, the acquisition of all or substantially all of the equity interests or assets of the Company (whether by merger, recapitalization, share exchange, sale of assets or any other similar transaction) or participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding, furnish any

-53-

information with respect to, or assist or participate in any effort or attempt by any Person to do or seek any of the foregoing.

7.11. Further Assurances. Each of the Holders’ Representative and Parent, upon the request of the other from time to time after the Closing, and at the expense of the requesting party but without further consideration, shall sign such documents and take such actions as may be necessary or otherwise reasonably requested to make more fully effective the consummation of the Contemplated Transactions.

7.12. Resignations. Each Acquired Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver to Parent prior to the Closing written resignations, effective as of the Closing Date, of the officers and directors of such Acquired Company; provided, that the resignations of employees of the Acquired Companies shall be in customary form and may provide that they do not constitute a resignation of such person’s employment with any Acquired Company, including for purposes of any employment agreement or Company Plan.

7.13. Spreadsheet. No later than two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to Parent a spreadsheet (the “Spreadsheet”), which Spreadsheet shall include as of the Closing:

(a) with respect to each Stockholder, (i) such Person’s address as reflected in the Company’s books and records, and, to the extent available, e-mail address, (ii) the number of Shares held by such Person, (iii) the respective certificate number(s) representing such Shares and (iv) the aggregate amount of cash to be paid to such Person at the Closing in respect of such Shares based on the Estimated Closing Statement; and

(b) with respect to each holder of Options, (i) such Person’s address as reflected in the Company’s books and records and, to the extent available, e-mail address, (ii) the number of Shares underlying all Options held by such Person, specifying whether such Options are In-the-Money Options or Out-of-the-Money Options and (iii) the aggregate amount of cash to be paid to such Person at the Closing in respect of such Options (excluding any amounts required under applicable Law to be withheld) based on the Estimated Closing Statement.

8.1.1. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing by written consent of Parent and the Company.

8.1.2. Parent may terminate this Agreement by delivering written notice to the Company at any time prior to the Closing in the event (a) the Company is in breach of this Agreement and such breach would result in the failure of any condition set forth in Section 5.1 or 5.2, (b) Parent has notified the Company of the breach in writing and (c) such breach is incapable of cure or, if capable of cure, has continued without cure for a period of twenty (20) days after delivery of such notice of breach; provided, however, that

8.1.4. Parent, on the one hand, or the Company, on the other hand, may terminate this Agreement by providing written notice to the other at any time on or after January 31, 2015 (the “Drop Dead Date”) if the Closing shall not have occurred by such initial Drop Dead Date; provided, that Parent shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1.4 if Parent or Merger Sub is then in material breach of this Agreement, and the Company shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1.4 if the Company is then in material breach of this Agreement; provided, further, that if, on the initial Drop Dead Date (or any subsequent extended Drop Dead Date), the conditions to Closing set forth in any of Sections 5.5, 5.6, 6.4 or 6.5 (but for purposes of Sections 5.5 and 6.4, only if such injunction, restraint or prohibition is attributable to an Antitrust Law) shall have not been fulfilled, but all other conditions to Closing have been or shall be capable of being fulfilled (assuming the Closing were to occur on such Drop Dead Date), then, at the option of either the Company or Parent, the Drop Dead Date may be extended from time to time, in each case, to a later date that is not later than February 28, 2015.

8.1.5. Either Parent, on the one hand, or the Company, on the other hand, may terminate this Agreement by delivering written notice to the other if any Governmental Authority issues a judgment, order, decree or other ruling permanently enjoining, or otherwise prohibiting the Contemplated Transactions and such judgment, order, decree or other ruling shall have become final and non-appealable; provided, that the Person seeking to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1.5 has fully complied with its obligations under Section 7.4.

(i)

any breach of, or inaccuracy in, any representation or warranty made by the Company in this Agreement or the certificate delivered by the Company pursuant to Section 5.4; or

(i)

any Losses associated with any sales Taxes required to be paid by any Acquired Company for any Pre-Closing Tax Period as a result of the voluntary disclosure process described in Section 7.9(d) and for any reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Parent in connection with, or arising from, the exercise by Parent of its rights under Section 7.9(d) (“VDA Process Losses”); and

(ii)

at the election of Parent, from, against and in respect of any and all Losses actually incurred or suffered by such Parent Indemnified Persons as a result of any breach of, or inaccuracy in, any representation or warranty made by the Company in Section 3.8 of this Agreement.

9.2.2. Indemnification by the Holders. Subject to the limitations and procedures set forth in this Article 9, from and after the Closing, each of the Holders shall severally (in accordance with its Pro Rata Share), and not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless each of the Parent Indemnified Persons from, against and in respect of any and all:

-57-

(a) Losses imposed upon, suffered or incurred by such Parent Indemnified Persons as a result of or relating to any breach of, or inaccuracy in, any Company Fundamental Representation made by the Company in this Agreement (or in the certificate delivered by the Company pursuant to Section 5.4 with respect to any Company Fundamental Representation); and

(b) Classification Losses.

9.2.3. Indemnification by Parent.

(b) any breach or violation of (i) any Pre-Closing Covenant of Parent or Merger Sub or (ii) any post-Closing covenant or agreement to be performed by Parent or the Surviving Corporation, in each case, pursuant to this Agreement.

9.2.4. Limitations and Clarifications on Liability.

(a) Except with respect to claims arising from a breach of any Fundamental Representation or claims made pursuant to Section 9.2.1(b), neither the Parent Indemnified Persons (in respect of Section 9.2.1) nor the Seller Indemnified Persons (in respect of Section 9.2.3) shall be entitled to assert any claim for indemnification hereunder until such time as the aggregate of all Losses that such Parent Indemnified Persons or such Seller Indemnified Persons may have under said Section exceed $600,000 (the “Basket”), in which event the Parent Indemnified Persons or Seller Indemnified Persons, as applicable, shall be entitled to assert a claim for indemnification for all such Losses.

(b) The aggregate liability for indemnification claims brought by Parent Indemnified Persons under Section 9.2.2(b) shall not exceed $618,750.

(c) The aggregate liability for indemnification claims brought by the Parent Indemnified Persons under (1) Section 9.2.1(a) shall not exceed an amount equal to the Indemnity Escrow Amount and shall be payable only from the Indemnity Escrow Account (other than with respect to indemnification claims that may also be made against the Tax Indemnity Escrow Account under Section 9.2.1(b) or directly against the Holders under Section 9.2.2(a)), (2) Section 9.2.1(b) shall not exceed an amount equal to the Indemnity Escrow Amount and Tax Indemnity Escrow Amount and shall be payable only from the Indemnity

-58-

Escrow Amount and Tax Indemnity Escrow Account (other than with respect to indemnification claims under Section 9.2.1(b)(ii) that may also be made directly against the Holders under Section 9.2.2(a)) and (3) this Article 9 shall not exceed an amount equal to the Base Purchase Price. Except with respect to claims pursuant to Section 9.2.3 with respect to Parent Fundamental Representations, the aggregate liability for indemnification claims under Section 9.2.3 shall be limited to an amount equal to the Escrow Amount and shall be paid directly by Parent to the applicable Seller Indemnified Person with respect to such Loss. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Article 9, the maximum aggregate liability of any individual Holder pursuant to this Article 9 (for the avoidance of doubt, including such Holder’s Pro Rata Share of the amounts in the Escrow Account) shall in no event exceed such Holder’s Pro Rata Share of the Base Purchase Price.

(d) The amount of Losses for which indemnification is available under this Article 9 shall be calculated net of any amounts actually recovered by an Indemnified Person under insurance policies or otherwise from third parties with respect to such Losses, net of any reasonable out-of-pocket costs or expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by such Indemnified Person in obtaining any such payment. With respect to any Losses for which indemnification is available under this Article 9, the applicable Indemnified Person shall in good faith use all commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate such Losses, including pursuing recovery of such Losses from third parties including insurers. In addition, the amount of Losses for which indemnification is available under this Article 9 shall be (i) in the case of claims under Section 9.2.1 or Section 9.2.2, calculated net of all amounts reflected in the Closing Debt Amount, the Seller Transaction Expenses or the Net Working Capital, as applicable, and (ii) in the case of any claims under Section 9.2.1, Section 9.2.2 or 9.2.3, reduced to take account of any Net Tax Benefit arising from the incurrence or payment of any such Loss. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 9.2.4(d) shall not apply with respect to claims against the Insurer under the Policy.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, for purposes of determining whether a breach or inaccuracy of a representation or warranty in this Agreement has occurred and in calculating the amount of any Losses that are the subject matter of a claim for indemnification hereunder with respect to a breach or inaccuracy of a representation or warranty in this Agreement, each representation and warranty contained in this Agreement shall be read without regard and without giving effect to any materiality qualifier or qualification (including “material,” “all material respects,” and “Material Adverse Effect”) contained in such representation or warranty (as if such qualifier or qualification was deleted from such representation and warranty).

(f) All indemnification rights hereunder shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the Contemplated Transactions for the periods set forth herein, regardless of any investigation,

-59-

inquiry or examination made for or on behalf of, or any knowledge of any Parent Indemnified Person or the acceptance by Parent of any certificate or opinion.

(g) No party will in any event be liable under this Article 9, and no claim for indemnification may in any event be asserted under this Article 9, for (i) any indirect, incidental or other consequential damages that in each case are not reasonably foreseeable, (ii) any punitive or special damages or (iii) any loss of, or based on any multiple of, profits or earnings, any diminution in value; provided, that an Indemnified Person may assert a claim for indemnification under this Article 9 for any Losses referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) if such Indemnified Person is required by a Governmental Order to pay such damages to a third party. For purposes of clarity, the parties acknowledge and agree that incidental damages incurred by an Indemnified Person in dispensing with its obligation to utilize commercially reasonable good faith efforts to mitigate Losses as set forth in Section 9.2.4(d) are reasonably foreseeable.

(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Parent Indemnified Person shall have any right to indemnification hereunder from and against any Losses or Taxes of any Person that are due to the unavailability in any Post-Closing Tax Period of any net operating loss carryforwards, capital loss carryforwards, credit carryforwards or other similar Tax assets or attributes that arose in a Pre-Closing Tax Period.

9.2.5. Sources of Recovery. Subject in all cases to the other limitations and procedures contained in this Article 9, this Section 9.2.5 shall govern and control the order of recovery with respect to indemnification pursuant to this Article 9 and claims to be made by the Parent Indemnified Persons under the Policy:

(a) subject to the Basket, if applicable, Losses subject to indemnification under Section 9.2.1(a) and/or Section 9.2.2 shall be (i) initially satisfied by means of claims against the Indemnity Escrow Account (to the extent cash is available therein to satisfy such claims), (ii) thereafter, solely with respect to Losses subject to indemnification under Section 9.2.2(a), following exhaustion of the Indemnity Escrow Amount and only to the extent of any remaining retention under the Policy, paid directly by the Holders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares, such payments by the Holders pursuant to this Section 9.2.5(a)(ii) (together with any payments by the Holders pursuant to Section 9.2.5(c)(ii)) not to exceed $825,000 in the aggregate, (iii) thereafter, solely with respect to Losses subject to indemnification under Section 9.2.2(b), following exhaustion of the Indemnity Escrow Amount, paid directly by the Holders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares, (iv) thereafter, satisfied by means of claims against the Insurer under the Policy, to the extent of available coverage and (v) solely with respect to Losses subject to indemnification under Section 9.2.2(a), following the exhaustion of the Indemnity Escrow Amount and all available coverage under the Policy, paid directly by the Holders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares;

-60-

(b) Losses subject to indemnification under Section 9.2.1(b)(i) shall be (i) initially satisfied by means of claims against the Tax Indemnity Escrow Account (to the extent cash is available therein to satisfy such claims) and (ii) thereafter, satisfied by means of claims against the Indemnity Escrow (to the extent cash is available therein to satisfy such claims); and

(c) Losses subject to indemnification under Section 9.2.1(b)(ii) shall be (i) initially, at the election of Parent, satisfied by means of claims against the Tax Indemnity Escrow Account (to the extent cash is available therein to satisfy such claims) or the Indemnity Escrow Account (to the extent cash is available therein to satisfy such claims), (ii) thereafter, following exhaustion of the Tax Indemnity Escrow Amount and the Indemnity Escrow Amount and only to the extent of any remaining retention under the Policy, paid directly by the Holders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares, such payments by the Holders pursuant to this Section 9.2.5(c)(ii) (together with any payments by the Holders pursuant to Section 9.2.5(a)(ii)) not to exceed $825,000 in the aggregate, (iii) thereafter, satisfied by means of claims against the Insurer under the Policy, to the extent of available coverage, and (iv) following the exhaustion of both the Tax Indemnity Escrow Amount and the Indemnity Escrow Amount, paid directly by the Holders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares.

With respect to any Losses for which the Policy provides for coverage, the Parent Indemnified Persons shall in good faith use all commercially reasonable efforts to pursue recovery of such Losses under the Policy. Parent shall not consent to or permit, without the prior written consent of the Holders’ Representative, any modification of the Policy that would reasonably be expected to reduce the amount of coverage available thereunder or otherwise be adverse to the Holders.

9.2.6. Claims Procedures.

(a) Third Party Claims. If any third party (i.e., any Person who is not a party to this Agreement or an Affiliate thereof) notifies an Indemnified Person with respect to any matter (a “Third Party Claim”) which may give rise to a claim for indemnification hereunder against an Indemnifying Party, then such Indemnified Person will promptly (and, in any event, within twenty (20) days) give written notice thereof to the Indemnifying Party, said notice to describe in reasonable detail all facts and circumstances then known or reasonably available to such Indemnified Person with respect to such Third Party Claim and the claimed items and amounts of Losses with respect thereto, as well as all provisions of this Agreement that are the bases for the indemnification claim with respect to such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that, subject to Section 9.1, no delay on the part of the Indemnified Person in notifying the Indemnifying Party will relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligation under this Article 9, except to the extent such delay actually prejudices the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnified Person shall be entitled to control the defense (including any compromise or settlement) of any Third Party Claim; provided, however, that (x) the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate, at its own cost and

-61-

expense, in the defense of any Third Party Claim that is the subject of a notice given by the Indemnified Person pursuant to this Section 9.2.6(a), and (y) no Holder will be bound by the entry of any such judgment consented to, or any such compromise or settlement effected, without the prior written consent of the Holders’ Representative (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) if such compromise or settlement would require a payment by any Holder under Section 9.2.2.

(b) Other Claims. In the event that any party to this Agreement proposes to make any claim for indemnification pursuant to this Article 9 and such claim does not involve a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Person making the claim shall deliver on or prior to the date upon which the applicable representations, warranties, covenants or agreements expire pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, in addition to an indemnification claim notice, a certificate signed by the Indemnified Person or an officer of the Indemnified Person (the “Claim Certificate”) to the Indemnifying Party, which Claim Certificate shall to the extent practicable: (a) describe in reasonable detail the material facts giving rise or relating to the claim; (b) specify the Section or Sections of this Agreement under which such claim is made; and (c) specify in reasonable detail the nature and approximate amount of Losses incurred or that are anticipated to be incurred and the misrepresentation or breach to which such Losses are related.

9.2.7. Remedies Exclusive. The parties covenant and agree that from and after the Closing the remedies provided for in this Article 9 and under the Escrow Agreement shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedy for all Losses that any Indemnified Person may suffer or incur arising from, or directly or indirectly relating to, this Agreement or the Contemplated Transactions, and the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waive any other rights or remedies (whether at law or in equity and whether based on contract, tort, statute or otherwise) that they may otherwise have had, now have or may in the future have against any of the other parties hereto or any of the respective direct or indirect Affiliates, officers, managers, directors, employees, advisors, stockholders, members, consultants, investment bankers, brokers, controlling persons, partners, managers or other representatives or agents thereof (each of whom shall be an express third party beneficiary hereof) arising from, or directly or indirectly relating to, this Agreement or the Contemplated Transactions and covenant not to xxx or otherwise assert any claim (or assist any other Person in suing or otherwise asserting any claim) encompassed by the foregoing covenant, agreement and waiver; provided, however, that, subject to Section 9.3, the foregoing shall not apply to claims of common law fraud based on the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3 and 4, as applicable, and provided, further, that the foregoing shall not apply to the parties’ rights to seek specific performance as contemplated by Section 10.12 or a breach of contract action with respect to covenants to be performed after the Closing pursuant to this Agreement; and provided, further, that the foregoing shall not apply to claims with respect to the Transmittal Documents provided by any Holder or any non-competition agreement between Parent and any Person listed on Schedule 5.15 hereto. Any Person who is sued or otherwise has a claim asserted against him, her or it in violation of this Section 9.2.7 may enforce the terms of this Section 9.2.7 directly as an express third-party beneficiary hereof.

-62-

9.2.8. Tax Treatment. The parties will treat any payment received pursuant to this Article 9 as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for Tax and financial reporting purposes to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements.

9.3. Acknowledgment. Each of Parent and Merger Sub acknowledges and agrees that none of the Holders, the Holders’ Representative, the Acquired Companies or any of their respective Affiliates or Representatives has made or shall be deemed to have made, and neither Parent nor Merger Sub has relied on, any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement, express or implied, with respect to the Holders, the Holders’ Representative, the Acquired Companies, the Business, the subject matter of this Agreement or the Contemplated Transactions, or the accuracy or completeness of any information regarding the Holders, the Holders’ Representative, the Acquired Companies, the Business, the subject matter of this Agreement or the Contemplated Transactions furnished or made available to Parent, Merger Sub and their respective Representatives, other than the respective representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the Company that are expressly set forth in this Agreement (including any certificates delivered in connection with this Agreement).

10.13.2. A decision, act, consent or instruction of the Holders’ Representative hereunder will constitute a decision, act, consent or instruction of all Holders and will be final, binding and conclusive upon each of such Holders, and the Escrow Agent and Parent may rely upon any such decision, act, consent or instruction of the Holders’ Representative as being the decision, act, consent or instruction of each and every such Holder.

10.13.3. Upon any release of funds from the Adjustment Escrow Account or the Indemnity Escrow Account to the Holders, the Holders’ Representative shall be authorized to direct that the Escrow Agent release to an account designated by the Holders’ Representative, prior to any distribution to the Holders, such amount (up to the amount of funds then remaining in the Adjustment Escrow Account or the Indemnity Escrow Account, as applicable (the “Remaining Fund Property”)), as is sufficient to satisfy (i) the

-67-

Holders’ Representative’s out-of-pocket expenses (including fees and charges of counsel, accountants or other agents) incurred in serving in that capacity and (ii) any amounts to which it is entitled pursuant to the indemnification provision in Section 10.13.5 (each item in clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section 10.13.3 referred to as the “Holders’ Representative Expenses”). If the Remaining Fund Property is insufficient to satisfy all Holders’ Representative Expenses, then each Holder will be obligated to pay its Pro Rata Share of the Holders’ Representative Expenses in excess of the Remaining Fund Property.

10.13.4. The Holders’ Representative will incur no Liability with respect to any action taken or suffered by any party in reliance upon any notice, direction, instruction, consent, statement or other document believed by the Holders’ Representative to be genuine and to have been signed by the proper person (and the Holders’ Representative will have no responsibility to determine the authenticity thereof), nor for any other action or inaction. In all questions arising under this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement, the Holders’ Representative may rely on the advice of outside counsel, and the Holders’ Representative will not be liable to any Holder for anything done, omitted or suffered in good faith by the Holders’ Representative based on such advice.

10.13.5. The Holders will severally (each based on and limited to its Pro Rata Share) but not jointly indemnify the Holders’ Representative and hold the Holders’ Representative harmless against any loss, Liability or expense incurred, on the part of the Holders’ Representative and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the Holders’ Representative’s duties hereunder, including the fees and expenses of any legal counsel or other agents retained by the Holders’ Representative.

10.13.6. In the event that the Holders’ Representative becomes unable or unwilling to continue in its capacity as Holders’ Representative, or if the Holders’ Representative resigns as a Holders’ Representative, a majority-in-interest of the Holders may, by written consent, appoint a new representative as the Holders’ Representative. Notice and a copy of the written consent appointing such new representative and bearing the signatures of a majority-in-interest of the Holders must be delivered to Parent and, if applicable, the Escrow Agent. Such appointment will be effective upon the later of the date indicated in the consent or the date such consent is received by Parent and, if applicable, the Escrow Agent. For the purposes of this Section 10.13, a “majority-in-interest of the Holders” means Holders representing in the aggregate a Pro Rata Share of greater than 50%.

10.13.7. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in in this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement, no Holder shall have any right to receive any portion of any funds in the Adjustment Escrow Account or the Indemnity Escrow Account unless and until it has been finally determined in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement, as applicable, that such funds or other property are to be distributed to such Holder in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement, as applicable.

10.14. No Waiver. No failure or delay on the part of any party hereto in the exercise of any right hereunder will impair such right or be construed to be a waiver of, or acquiescence in,

-68-

any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement herein, nor will any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or of any other right. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provision hereof (whether or not similar), or shall constitute a continuing waiver unless otherwise expressly provided. No waiver of any right or remedy hereunder shall be valid unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the party against whom such waiver is intended to be effective.

10.15. Negotiation of Agreement. The parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement.

10.16. Disclosure Schedules. The inclusion of any information in the Disclosure Schedules will not be deemed an admission or acknowledgment that such information is required to be listed in the Disclosure Schedules or that such items are material. The Disclosure Schedules are arranged in sections corresponding to the sections contained in this Agreement merely for convenience, and the disclosure of an item in one section of the Disclosure Schedules as an exception to a particular covenant, agreement, representation or warranty will be deemed adequately disclosed as an exception with respect to all other covenants, agreements, representations and warranties to the extent that the relevance of such item to such other covenants, representations, agreements or warranties is reasonably apparent to a Person reviewing the Disclosure Schedules without independent knowledge on behalf of the Person that such disclosure is responsive to such other covenant, agreement, representation or warranty, notwithstanding the presence or absence of a specific cross-reference thereto.

10.17. Headings. The headings contained in this Agreement are inserted only for reference as a matter of convenience and in no way define, limit or describe the scope or intent of this Agreement, and will not affect in any way the construction, meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

10.18. Counterparts; Signature. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, and by the different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original for all purposes and all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument. Signatures to this Agreement may be delivered by facsimile or pdf (or similar electronic means) by any party and such signature will be deemed binding and an original for all purposes hereof.
