Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, this Agreement shall not constitute an assignment of any Contract or Permit if an attempted assignment thereof, without the consent of a third party thereto, would constitute a breach thereof or would be legally ineffective. If any such consent is not obtained prior to Closing or does not remain in full force and effect at Closing in satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Sections 14(e) and 15(e) or if such consent is not required to be obtained pursuant to such sections, or if any attempt at an assignment thereof would be ineffective or would affect the rights of Seller thereunder so that Buyer would not in fact receive all such rights, Buyer and Seller shall use reasonable efforts to enter into a mutually agreeable, reasonable and lawful arrangement under which Buyer obtains the benefits and assumes the obligations in respect of such Contract or Permit from and after the Closing, including subcontracting, sublicensing or subleasing to Buyer, and under which Seller would enforce for the benefit of Buyer, with Buyer assuming the obligations, any and all rights of Seller against a third Person party thereto.

4. Assignment and Assumption of Liabilities.

a. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and except for the Excluded Liabilities, Buyer shall assume all of the Assumed Liabilities. “Assumed Liabilities” means:

i) all Liabilities of the Business (including all Liabilities pursuant to the Acquired Contracts and Acquired Permits) arising or to be performed after or in respect of periods following the Closing, including all Liabilities for liquidated damages under the Acquired Contracts or related to the Assets;

ii) all accounts payable reflected in the Closing Working Capital;

iii) all Liabilities in respect of Transferred Employees, and beneficiaries of employees of the Business, including under or relating to WARN or any similar state or local law in each case to the extent relating to or arising out of any actions taken by Buyer on or after the Closing Date;

iv) all Liabilities relating to claims of manufacturing or design defects with respect to any product sold (regardless of whether any such product was purchased prior to or after the Closing Date) or service provided by the Business on or after the Closing Date, including Liabilities in respect of investigations regarding product safety, product recall and related matters;

v) all liabilities and obligations relating to warranty obligations or services with respect to any product sold or service provided by the Business prior to, on or after the Closing Date;

vi) all Liabilities relating to the ITS Leases with respect to the period after the Closing Date;

vii) all Liabilities relating to the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970, as amended, and any regulations, decisions or orders promulgated thereunder, together with any state or local law, regulation or ordinance pertaining to worker, employee or occupational safety or health in effect as the same may be amended, supplemented or superseded, relating to or arising out of the operation, affairs and conduct of the Business by Buyer in respect of periods following the Closing;

viii) all Liabilities arising from or relating to the Proceedings set forth on Schedule 4(a)(viii) (the “Assumed Proceedings”); and

ix) a pro rata portion of all ad valorem real property taxes for the portion of the taxable year ending after the Closing Date.

b. The assumption by Buyer of the Assumed Liabilities, the transfer thereof by Seller, and the limitations of such transfer shall in no way expand the rights or remedies of any third party against Buyer or Seller or its Affiliates as compared to the rights and remedies which such third party would have had against Seller or its Affiliates had Buyer not assumed such liabilities. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, the assumption by Buyer of the Assumed Liabilities shall not create any third party beneficiary rights which are not presently granted to any party under the terms of any Contract which is expressly assumed by Buyer under the terms of this Agreement.

5. Excluded Liabilities. Buyer shall not assume, and shall not be deemed to have assumed, the following liabilities (collectively, the “Excluded Liabilities”):

a. any liability or obligation of the Seller arising under this Agreement;

b. except to the extent provided in Section 12(f), any liability or obligation of the Seller or its Affiliates with respect to, or arising out of, any employee benefit plan, executive deferred compensation plan or any other plans or arrangements for the benefit of any employees of the Seller or any such Affiliate, including the Transferred Employees;

c. any liability or obligation of the Seller to any shareholders of the Seller or any of their Affiliates or to any party claiming to have a right to acquire any ownership interests or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for any ownership interests of the Seller;

d. all Environmental Liabilities relating to or arising out of the operation, affairs and conduct of the Business by Buyer in respect of periods prior to Closing;

e. any Taxes, fees, expenses or other amounts required to be paid as a result of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement;

g. all Liabilities arising from or relating to Proceedings other than the Assumed Proceedings;

h. except to the extent an Assumed Liability pursuant to Section 4, liabilities and obligations asserted after Closing relating to or arising out of the operation, affairs and conduct of the Business by Seller in respect of periods prior to the Closing; or

i. Defective Installation Losses.

6. Purchase Price.

a. The purchase price for the Assets shall be:

i) $6,000,000 payable in cash to the Seller at Closing (the “Base Purchase Price”) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account or accounts as Seller shall have designated prior to the Closing Date; plus

ii) Buyer’s Promissory Note (the “Note”) payable to Seller in the face amount of $5,000,000 in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B; plus

iii) additional earn-out consideration (the “Earn-Out”) up to a maximum amount of $9,000,000 (the “Earn-Out Amount”) as follows:

b. Earn-Out. In addition to the Base Purchase Price and the Note, Seller shall be entitled, upon full repayment of the Note and to the extent not prohibited by the terms of any credit facilities in favor of Buyer (to the extent any such restrictions exist, all payments which would be payable under this section absent such restriction shall be deferred until such time as the payment thereof is not prohibited by the terms of any such facilities), to additional earn-out consideration (the “Earn-Out”) up to a maximum amount (subject to adjustment as set forth in this Agreement) of $9,000,000 (the “Earn-Out Amount”) as follows:

i) Until the earlier of (x) such time as $7,000,000 (as adjusted pursuant to this Agreement) (“1st Tier Earn-Out”) is paid in full pursuant to this Section 7(c)(i), or (y) the last day of the 5th full calendar year ending after the Closing Date, with respect to each calendar year following the Closing Date, Buyer shall pay to Seller an amount (“Earnout Payment”), equal to at least 35% of the Excess Cash Flow of the Business during such calendar year. Excess Cash Flow of the Business shall be cumulative and shall be adjusted so that if in any prior calculation year(s) the Excess Cash Flow of the Business was less than zero (“Yearly Shortfall”), such cumulative Yearly Shortfall is to be subtracted from the then cumulative Excess Cash Flow of the Business. If Excess Cash Flow of the Business in the year is greater than zero, a payment shall be due to Seller with respect to such year, and paid to Seller in accordance with

the terms herein. If the cumulative Excess Cash Flow of the Business following the Closing Date at any time is equal to or in excess of $50,000,000 (“Bonus Earn-Out Test”), then Buyer shall pay to Seller the difference between the Earn-Out Amount less cumulative Earnout Payments. Each Earnout Payment will be paid by Buyer to Seller by wire transfer of same day funds to an account designated by Seller within 5 days after such Earnout Payment has been finally determined.

ii) Computation of Excess Cash Flow. For purposes of this Agreement and the Note, “Excess Cash Flow” of the Business for any calendar year shall mean (i) Cash Flow from Operations of the Business (as set forth on a Cash Flow Statement of the Business) with respect to such year for indebtedness senior to the Note (which indebtedness shall not be greater than $20 million not including surety claims pursuant to completion bonds), minus (ii) mandatory third party principal debt payments actually paid by Buyer during such year for indebtedness senior to the Note, minus (iii) Net Capital Expenditures. All components of Excess Cash Flow shall be determined in accordance with US GAAP, consistently applied. “Net Capital Expenditures” means all cash used for capital expenditures of the Business during such year (which shall not be greater than $3,000,000), minus the proceeds from asset sales of the Business during such year. In calculating Excess Cash Flow no deduction shall be made for (x) any management fees or other intercompany charges, of whatever kind or nature, charged by Buyer or any of its Affiliates to the Business, or any (y) legal, accounting or other diligence fees or expenses arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. The purchase and sales prices of goods and services sold by the Business to Buyer or any of its Affiliates or purchased by the Business from Buyer or any of its Affiliates shall be adjusted to reflect the amounts that the Business would have realized or paid if dealing with an independent party in an arm’s-length commercial transaction.

iii) Change of Control. Upon any Change of Control of Buyer, the proceeds paid to Buyer and its equity holders directly as a result of that Change of Control and limited only to those proceeds as a result of same, and its equity holders shall be paid or retained as follows:

1) first, Buyer shall retain an amount equal to all Invested Capital;

2) second, Buyer shall retain an amount equal to the Minimum Return;

3) third, Buyer shall pay Seller an amount equal to any portion of the 1st Tier Earn-Out not previously paid pursuant to Section 6(b)(i);

4) fourth, if (x) the Bonus Earn-Out Test (for which the proceeds of the Change of Control shall be deemed to be Excess Cash Flow) has been satisfied and (y) the Earn-Out Amount has not been paid in full, then, the next $2,000,000 shall be paid to Seller; and

5) finally, 100% of the remaining distributions shall be retained by Buyer.

iv) For purposes of this Section 6(b), the following terms have the respective meanings below:

1) “Invested Capital” means the aggregate amount of equity contributed to Buyer less the aggregate amount of equity distributed from Buyer to its equity holders, excluding all management fees.

2) “Minimum Return” means, a 20% per annum compounded return, on all Invested Capital, less all amounts paid, distributed or otherwise transferred (excluding all management fees) from Buyer to its partners, shareholders or other equity holders.

3) “Change of Control” means the occurrence after the date hereof of any of (i) an acquisition after the date hereof by an individual or legal entity or “group” (as described in Rule 13d-5(b)(1) promulgated under the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) of effective control (whether through legal or beneficial ownership of equity interests of the Buyer, by contract or otherwise) of in excess of 50% of the voting securities, limited partnership interests, general partnership interests or any other equity interests of the Buyer, or (ii) the Buyer merges into or consolidates with any other Person, or any Person merges into or consolidates with the Buyer and, after giving effect to such transaction, the equity holders of the Buyer immediately prior to such transaction own less than 50% of the equity interests of the Buyer or the successor entity of such transaction, (iii) the Buyer sells, transfers, leases or licenses its assets, as an entirety or substantially as an entirety, to another Person, or (iv) the execution by the Buyer of an agreement to which the Buyer is a party or by which it is bound, providing for any of the events set forth above in (i) through (iii).

v) Restrictions. Until such time as the Earn-Out Amount (as adjusted pursuant to this Agreement) has been paid in full:

1) the Business shall be managed and operated as a separate, stand alone entity;

2) without the prior written consent of Seller, there shall be no expenses imposed upon the Business by any Affiliate of Buyer, including without limitation, any corporate overhead charges, management fees, general and administrative expense allocation or charges or expenses relating to accounting, human resources, legal and compliance and information technology nor will any services or products be provided to the Business by an Affiliate of Buyer, except at rates that are at least as favorable as the Business could obtain from third parties; provided that Buyer shall be permitted to pay a management fee of no more than $25,000 per month to an Affiliate of Buyer; and

3) Buyer shall not make any distributions, pay or declare any dividends or otherwise transfer any of its assets to its Affiliates or other equity holders; provided that Buyer may make annual distributions to its equity holders in an amount not to exceed the federal income tax liability of such holders as a result of Buyer’s income during such period.

c. Dispute Procedure. All disputes with respect to the Earn-Out shall be settled in the same manner as disputes regarding the Purchase Price adjustment as set forth in Section 7.

d. Allocation of Purchase Price. The Base Purchase Price, the Note and the Earn-Out shall be referred to collectively as the “Purchase Price”. Prior to Closing, the Seller shall provide to Buyer a proposed allocation of the Purchase Price plus liabilities deemed assumed (the “Tax Purchase Price”) for the sale of the Assets. The Tax Purchase Price shall be allocated using principles that are consistent with the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Prior to Closing, the Buyer and Seller shall mutually agree on a final allocation (the “Final Allocation”) of the Tax Purchase Price, which Final Allocation will be attached hereto as Schedule 6(d). After the Closing, the parties shall make consistent use of the allocation, fair market value and useful lives specified on Schedule 6(d) for all tax purposes and in all filings, declarations and reports with the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) and similar reports for state, local, or foreign purposes in respect thereof, including the reports required to be filed under Section 1060 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Buyer shall prepare and deliver IRS Form 8594 to Seller within forty-five (45) days after the Closing Date to be filed with the IRS in accordance with Schedule 6(d). In any proceeding related to the determination of any tax, neither Buyer nor Seller shall contend or represent that such allocation is not a correct allocation.

7. Purchase Price Adjustment.

a. The 1^st Tier Earn-Out will be reduced by the amount, if any, by which the Target Working Capital exceeds the Closing Working Capital, or will be increased by the amount, if any, by which Closing Working Capital exceeds $41,800,000 as determined in accordance with this Section 7. After the Closing, the Purchase Price will be recalculated (as recalculated, the “Final Purchase Price”) based on the Closing Working Capital determined in accordance with this Section 7. All adjustments to the Purchase Price made pursuant to this Section 7 will be consistently treated by both the Buyer and Seller as adjustments to purchase price for United States federal, state and local Tax purposes.

b. No later than forty five (45) calendar days following the Closing Date, Buyer will prepare and deliver to Seller a balance sheet of the Business as of the Closing Date prepared in accordance with US GAAP (excluding footnotes) on the same basis and applying the same accounting principles, policies and practices that were used in preparing the Interim Balance Sheet (the “Closing Balance Sheet”), together with a statement (the “Closing Statement”) setting forth Buyer’s determination of the Closing Working Capital.

c. During the thirty (30) calendar day period immediately following the date of delivery to the Seller of the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Statement, the Seller’s representatives (i) will be permitted to review, during normal business hours and with reasonable prior notice, the books and records of Buyer relating to the Business and the working papers related to the preparation of the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Statement (including the determinations included therein), and (ii) will be given reasonable access, during normal business hours and with reasonable prior notice, to knowledgeable employees and accounting professionals of Buyer in order to facilitate the Seller’s review of the Closing Balance Sheet and

Closing Statement; provided, however, that the review and access described in clauses (i) and (ii) will not be conducted or provided at times or in a manner that would unreasonably interfere with Buyer’s operation of the Business. The Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Statement (including the determinations included therein) will become final, binding and conclusive upon the Seller and the Buyer thirty (30) days following the Seller’s receipt thereof, unless Buyer receives from the Seller on or prior to such date written notice of the Seller’s disagreement with any account or determination set forth in the Closing Balance Sheet or Closing Statement (a “Dispute Notice”). Any Dispute Notice will specify in reasonable detail the nature and dollar amount of any disagreement so asserted (collectively, the “Disputed Items”). Any account or determination set forth or reflected on the Closing Balance Sheet or in the Closing Statement that is not specifically objected to in the Dispute Notice will be deemed final, binding and conclusive upon the Seller and the Buyer upon delivery of the Dispute Notice. If a timely Dispute Notice is received by the Buyer, then the Closing Balance Sheet and the related determination of Closing Working Capital set forth in the Closing Statement will become final, binding and conclusive upon Buyer and Seller on the first to occur of (x) the date on which Buyer and Seller resolve in writing all differences they have with respect to the Disputed Items or (y) the date on which all of the Disputed Items that are not resolved by Buyer and Seller in writing are finally resolved in writing by the Independent Accountants as follows.

d. During the ten (10) calendar days following delivery of a Dispute Notice (or such longer period as the Buyer and Seller shall mutually agree), Buyer and Seller will seek in good faith to resolve in writing any differences which they have with respect to all Disputed Items. Any Disputed Item resolved in writing by the Buyer and Seller will be deemed final, binding and conclusive on the Buyer and Seller. If Buyer and Seller do not reach agreement on all of the Disputed Items during such 10-day period (or such longer period as they shall mutually agree), then at the end of such 10-day period Buyer and Seller will submit all unresolved Disputed Items (collectively, the “Unresolved Items”) to an independent third party accountant or consultant mutually agreeable to the Buyer and Seller (the “Independent Accountants”) to review and resolve such matters. The Independent Accountants will determine each Unresolved Item (the amount of which may not be more favorable to Buyer than the related amount set forth in the Closing Statement or more favorable to the Seller than the related amount set forth in the Dispute Notice) as promptly as may be reasonably practicable, and will endeavor to complete such process within a period of no more than fifteen (15) days. The Independent Accountants may conduct such proceedings as the Independent Accountants believe, in their sole discretion, will assist in the determination of the Unresolved Items; provided, however, that all communications between the Buyer and Seller or any of their respective representatives, on the one hand, and the Independent Accountants, on the other hand, will be in writing with copies simultaneously delivered to the non-communicating party. The Independent Accountants’ determination of the Unresolved Items will be final, binding and conclusive on the Buyer and Seller, effective as of the date the Independent Accountants’ written determination is received by the Buyer and Seller. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountants shall be apportioned equitably between Seller, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, by the Independent Accountants so that the non-prevailing party on each issue bears the fees and expenses associated with that issue.

e. Upon determination of Closing Working Capital pursuant to this Section 7, a final adjustment to the Purchase Price will be determined and satisfied as follows:

i) if the Closing Working Capital computed as provided in this Section 7 based on the Final Closing Balance Sheet exceeds $41,800,000, the 1^st Tier Earn-Out shall be increased by an amount equal to the amount of such excess; or

ii) if the Target Working Capital exceeds the Closing Working Capital based on the Final Closing Balance Sheet, the 1^st Tier Earn-Out shall be reduced by an amount equal to such excess; or

iii) if Closing Working Capital is greater than or equal to the Target Working Capital but less than $41,800,000, there will be no purchase price adjustment.

8. Seller’s Representations and Warranties. The Seller makes the representations and warranties to the Buyer set forth in this Section 8. All such representations and warranties are made subject to the exceptions noted in the Disclosure Schedules. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or in the Disclosure Schedules, any information disclosed in one section of the Disclosure Schedules shall be deemed to be disclosed against all the representations and warranties of the Seller.

In the event Seller breaches its obligations hereunder, notwithstanding satisfaction prior to the Termination Date of all of the conditions to Closing described in Sections 14 and 15, then, as Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedy (other than its right to receive reimbursement of expenses as provided in this Section 11(g)), Seller shall pay to Buyer within sixty (60) days of such breach, a termination fee of $400,000 in consideration of Buyer’s time, effort and resources expended in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

h. Notice of Developments. From the date of the Agreement until the Closing Date, the Seller will give the Buyer prompt written notice upon becoming aware of any material development affecting the Assets or the Business, or any event or circumstance that could reasonably be expected to result in a breach of, or inaccuracy in, any of the Seller’s representations and warranties; provided, however, that no such disclosure will be deemed to prevent or cure any breach of, or inaccuracy in any representation or warranty set forth in this Agreement. The Seller shall periodically update Schedules 2(c), 2(d), 2(e), 2(f), 2(g) and 2(i) through the Closing Date at such times as are reasonably requested by Buyer but in no event more frequently than bi-monthly and the Assets acquired at Closing shall include the Assets set forth on such updated Schedules. The Seller will be entitled to deliver to the Buyer a supplement to the Schedules that discloses to the Buyer in reasonable detail any facts and circumstances arising after the date of the Agreement that would constitute a breach of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 8 as of the date hereof or the Closing Date. The delivery of such supplements shall not limit or constitute a waiver of Buyer’s right to indemnification for breaches of representations and warranties pursuant to Section 19(a).

12. Buyer’s Covenants

Buyer recognizes and agrees that a breach by Buyer of any of the covenants and agreements in this Section 12(b) could cause irreparable harm to Seller, that Seller’s remedies at law in the event of such breach would be inadequate, and that, accordingly, in the event of such breach a restraining order or injunction or both may be issued against Buyer, in addition to any other rights and remedies that may be available to Seller under Applicable Law. If this Section 12(b) is more restrictive than permitted by Applicable Laws of the jurisdiction in which Seller seeks enforcement hereof, this Section 12(b) shall be limited to the extent required to permit enforcement under such Applicable Laws.

The Buyer Parties shall not be entitled to recover under this Agreement to the extent of any Loss that could have been avoided but for the Buyer Parties’ failure to avoid or mitigate such Loss.

v) Any claim shall (if it has not been previously satisfied, settled or withdrawn) be deemed to have been withdrawn six (6) months after the notice is given pursuant

to Section 19(e) or, in the case of a contingent liability, six (6) months after that liability becomes an actual liability, unless legal proceedings in respect of it have been commenced by being both issued and served. No new claim may be made in respect of the facts, matters, events or circumstances giving rise to any such withdrawn claim.

vi) If any claim is based upon a liability which is contingent only, the Seller shall not be liable to pay unless and until such contingent liability gives rise to an obligation to make a payment (but the Buyer Parties have the right under Section 19(e) to give notice of that claim before such time).

x) If a breach of the representations and warranties given by the Seller in this Agreement is capable of remedy without Loss to Buyer, the Buyer Parties shall only be entitled to compensation if the breach is not remedied within thirty (30) days after the date on which notice is served on the Seller in accordance with Section 21(a). Without prejudice to their duty to mitigate any loss, the Buyer Parties shall provide all reasonable assistance to the Seller to remedy any such breach.

Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, the Indemnifying Party shall not be required to indemnify, defend or hold harmless any Indemnified Party against or reimburse any Indemnified Party for any Losses unless the Indemnified Party has notified the Indemnifying Party in writing in accordance with this Section 19(e) of a pending or threatened claim with respect to such matters within thirty (30) days of the Indemnifying Party becoming aware of such pending or threatened claim and within the applicable survival period set forth in Section 10. If the Indemnified Claim arises from the assertion of any claim, or the commencement of any suit, action, proceeding or Remedial Action brought by a Person that is not a party hereto (a “Third Party Claim”), any such notice to the Indemnifying Party shall be accompanied by a copy of any papers theretofore served on or delivered to the Indemnified Parry in connection with such Third Party Claim. With respect to any Third Party Claim asserted or brought prior to the Closing Date, notice of such Third Party Claim shall be deemed to have been delivered on the Closing Date.

ii) Upon receipt of notice of a Third Party Claim from an Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 19(e) the Indemnifying Party will be entitled to assume the defense and control of such Third Party Claim subject to the provisions of this Section 19(e) provided that in the case of matters involving actions or claims that, if not fast paid, discharged or otherwise complied with would result in a material interruption or cessation of the conduct of the Business, the Indemnifying Party shall act promptly to avoid, to the extent practicable, any such effects on the Business. After written notice by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume the defense and control of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to such Indemnified Party for any legal fees or expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection therewith. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 19(e) to the contrary, if the Indemnifying Party does not assume defense and control of a Third Party Claim as provided in this Section 19(e), the Indemnified Party shall have the right to defend such Third Party Claim, subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 19(e), in such manner as it may deem appropriate. Whether the Indemnifying Parry or the Indemnified Party is defending and controlling any such Third Party Claim, it shall select counsel, contractors, experts and consultants of reasonable recognized standing and competence, shall take all steps necessary in the investigation, defense or settlement thereof, and shall at all times diligently and promptly pursue the resolution thereof. The party conducting the defense thereof shall at all times act as if all Losses relating to the Third Party Claim were for its own account and shall act in good faith and with reasonable prudence to minimize Losses therefrom. The Indemnified Party shall, and shall cause each of its Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, and agents to, cooperate fully with the Indemnifying Party in connection with any Third Party Claim.

iii) Subject to the provisions of Sections 19(e)(ii) and 19(e)(iv) the Indemnifying Party shall be authorized to consent to a settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any Third Party Claims, and the Indemnified Party shall consent to a settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, such Third Party Claims; provided, that the Indemnifying Party shall (a) pay or cause to be paid all amounts arising out of such settlement judgment concurrently with the effectiveness thereof; (b) shall not encumber any of the assets of any Indemnified Party or agree to any restriction or condition that would apply to such Indemnified Party or to the conduct of that party’s business; and (c) shall obtain, as a condition of any settlement or other resolution, a complete release of each Indemnified Party against any and all damages resulting from, arising out of or incurred with respect to such settlement or other resolution. Except for the foregoing, no settlement or entry of judgment in respect of any Third Party Claim shall be consented to by any Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party without the express written consent of the other party.

iv) In the case of the indemnification contemplated by Section 19(e)(ii), in the event that the Indemnifying Party desires to settle the matters referenced therein or consent to the entry of any judgment arising thereunder and the Indemnified Party does not wish to consent to such settlement or entry of judgment, the Indemnified Party shall have no obligation to consent to the settlement or entry of judgment provided that it agrees in writing to pay and be responsible for 100% of any Losses; provided that the Indemnified Party shall not be required to consent to any settlement or agree to be responsible for the payment of Losses thereafter incurred with respect to any matter the settlement or entry of judgment of which would require the consent of such Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 19(e)(iii). Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Indemnifying Party may, at its option and expense, participate in the defense of any Indemnified Claim.

v) If the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party are unable to agree with respect to a procedural matter arising under this Section 19(e) the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall, within ten (10) days after notice of disagreement given by either party, agree upon a third-party referee (“Referee”), who shall be an attorney and who shall have the authority to review and resolve the disputed matter. The parties shall present their differences in writing (each party simultaneously providing to the other a copy of all documents submitted) to the Referee and shall cause the Referee promptly to review any facts, law or arguments either the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party may present. The Referee shall be retained to resolve specific differences between the parties within the range of such differences. Either party may request that all discussions with the Referee by either party be in each other’s presence. The decision of the Referee shall be final and binding unless both the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party agree. The parties shall share equally all costs and fees of the Referee.

vi) If an Indemnifying Party makes any payment on an Indemnified Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated, to the extent of such payment, to all rights and remedies of the Indemnified Party to any insurance benefits or other claims of the Indemnified Party with respect to such claim.

ii) Following the Closing Date, Buyer and Seller shall communicate with respect to the performance and completion of the Bonded Obligations and Buyer shall afford Seller the opportunity to remedy any actual or reasonably anticipated non-performance or non-completion of any Bonded Obligation.

g. Sources of Indemnification for Buyer.

20. Brokers and Finders. The Seller has retained Xxxxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxxx & Xxxxx (“HLHZ”) in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and will pay all fees and expenses charged by HLHZ. Except for HLHZ, each party represents and warrants to the other that it has not employed or retained any broker or finder in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement nor has it had any dealings with any person that may entitle that person to a fee or commission from any other party hereto. Each of the parties indemnifies and holds the others harmless from and against any claim, demand, or damages whatsoever by virtue of any arrangement or commitment made by it with or to any person that may entitle such person to any fee or commission from the other parties to this Agreement.

c. Binding Nature of Agreement; Assignment.

d. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Confidentiality Agreement and the schedules, exhibits and certificates to be delivered pursuant hereto constitute the entire agreement and understanding among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior and contemporaneous agreements, understandings, inducements, and conditions, express or implied, oral or written, of any nature whatsoever with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement may not be modified or amended other than by an agreement in writing executed by the parties.

e. Dispute Resolution. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of Florida applicable to contracts made and to be performed therein. Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any related agreement or any of the contemplated transactions will be settled in the following manner: (i) senior executives representing each of Seller and Buyer will meet to discuss and attempt to resolve the controversy or claim, (ii) if the controversy or claim is not resolved as contemplated by clause (i), Seller and Buyer will, by mutual consent, select an independent third party to mediate such controversy or claim, provided that such mediation will not be binding upon the parties; and (iii) if such controversy or claim is not resolved as contemplated by clauses (i) and (ii), the parties will refer any dispute hereunder (to the exclusion of a court of law) to final and binding arbitration in Miami, Florida in accordance with the then existing rules for expedited arbitration (the “Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The law applicable to any controversy shall be the law of the State of Florida, regardless of principles of conflicts of laws. In any arbitration pursuant to this Agreement involving a dispute in excess of $500,000, the award or decision shall be rendered by a majority of the members of a Board of Arbitration consisting of three members, one of whom shall be appointed by each of the respective parties and the third of whom shall be the chairman of the panel and be appointed by mutual agreement of said two party-appointed arbitrators. In the event of failure of said two arbitrators to agree within twenty (20) days after the commencement of the arbitration proceeding upon the appointment of the third arbitrator, the third arbitrator shall be appointed by the AAA in accordance with the Rules. In the event of a dispute involving a sum equal to or less than $500,000, a single arbitrator shall be appointed by the AAA in accordance with the Rules. In the event that either party shall fail to appoint an arbitrator within ten (10) days after the commencement of the arbitration proceedings, such arbitrator and the third arbitrator shall be appointed by the AAA in accordance with the Rules. Nothing set forth above shall be interpreted to prevent the parties from agreeing in writing to submit any dispute to a single arbitrator in lieu of a three member Board of Arbitration. Upon the completion of the selection of the Board of Arbitration (or if the parties agree otherwise in writing, a single arbitrator), an award or decision shall be rendered in writing within no more than thirty (30) days. The award rendered by arbitration shall be final and binding upon the parties, and judgment upon the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction in the United States. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the request by either party for preliminary or permanent injunctive relief, whether prohibitive or mandatory, shall not be subject to arbitration and shall be adjudicated only by the courts of the State of Florida located in Miami-Dade County or the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida. Each of the parties to this Agreement irrevocably consents to the service of process in any action or proceeding hereunder by the mailing of copies of the notice, summons and/or complaint by registered or certified airmail, postage prepaid, to the address specified in Section 21(a). The foregoing shall not limit the rights of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by Applicable Law or to obtain execution of judgment in any other jurisdiction. An arbitrator(s) or court reviewing any dispute related to this Agreement pursuant to this Section may award reasonable costs for legal representation to a successful party and may apportion the costs of the arbitration or court costs between the parties if the arbitrator or court determines that such apportionment is reasonable, taking into account the circumstances of the case.

g. Enforcement of Agreement. The parties acknowledge and agree that in the event of a breach of this Agreement, the non-breaching party would be irreparably damaged and could not be adequately compensated in all cases by monetary damages alone. Accordingly, in addition to any other right or remedy to which the non-breaching party may be entitled, at law or in equity, it shall be entitled to enforce any provision of this Agreement by a decree of specific performance and to temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of any of the provisions of this Agreement, without posting any bond or other undertaking.

h. Provisions Separable. The provisions of this Agreement are independent of and separable from each other, and no provision shall be affected or rendered invalid or unenforceable by virtue of the fact that for any reason any other or others of them may be invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part.

i. Indulgences Not Waivers. Neither the failure nor any delay on the part of either party to exercise any right, remedy, power or privilege under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power, or privilege preclude any other or further exercise of the same or of any other right, remedy, power, or privilege, nor shall any waiver of any right, remedy, power, or privilege with respect to any occurrence be construed as a waiver of such right, remedy, power, or privilege with respect to any other occurrence. No waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and is signed by the party asserted to have granted such waiver.

j. Costs and Expenses. Each party hereto shall bear its own costs, including counsel fees and accounting fees, incurred in connection with the negotiation, preparation of and the Closing under this Agreement, and all matters incident thereto.

n. Number of Days. In computing the number of days for purposes of this Agreement, all days shall be counted, including Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays celebrated in the United States; provided, however, that if the final day of any period falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or holiday celebrated in the United States, then the final day shall be deemed to be the next day which is not a Saturday, Sunday, or holiday celebrated in the United States.

o. Transfer Taxes. Any sales, use or other transfer taxes arising out of or incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be paid by Seller; provided that Buyer shall deliver to Seller any resale certificate for inventory or clearance certificate, receipts or similar documents that may be required.

The outstanding principal amount of the Loan and any accrued but unpaid interest thereon shall be due and payable by Borrower on [January] ___, 2012;¹ provided, that the outstanding principal amount of the Loan and any accrued but unpaid interest thereon automatically shall become due and payable to Lender if there has occurred (i) a Change in Control (as such term is defined in the Purchase Agreement) or (ii) a Bankruptcy Event (as such term is defined herein).

2. Interest Periods. Interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Loan shall be paid by Borrower to Lender on the final date of each “Interest Period” hereunder (each, an “Interest Payment Date”).

4. Default Interest. If any amount owing under the Loan is not paid when due, or if any Event of Default (as defined below) occurs, all outstanding obligations and indebtedness of Borrower hereunder (including without limitation all outstanding principal amounts hereunder and all outstanding obligations of Borrower) shall at every time thereafter bear interest at five percent (5.00%) per annum above the applicable rate until all outstanding obligations and indebtedness of Borrower hereunder are paid in full.

5. Payments.

(b) Borrower shall notify Lender in writing immediately of any knowledge or notice Borrower may now or hereafter obtain regarding the occurrence or possible occurrence of any Event of Default or of any event which, with the passage of time and/or with notice or demand, would constitute or would be likely to result in an Event of Default.

12. Expenses. Borrower hereby waives presentment, demand, notice of dishonor, protest and all other demands and notices in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance, default and enforcement of this Note. Borrower also agrees to reimburse Lender on demand for all costs, attorneys’ fees (whether incurred without litigation, at trial or on appeal), attorneys’ expenses, paralegals’ fees and expenses, experts’ fees and expenses and other expenses and charges incurred by Lender in connection with the enforcement and/or collection of this Note and/or of any judgment to which all or any part of Borrower’s indebtedness hereunder is reduced.

13. Taxes. All sums payable to Lender under this Note shall be paid free and clear of all offsets, counterclaims, taxes, duties, deductions and/or withholdings whatsoever; to the extent any of the same may now or hereafter be applicable, Borrower shall be responsible for them and shall, to the extent necessary to absorb them, gross up the amount payable to Lender hereunder so that the net amount received by Lender, after all required withholdings and deductions are made (including any deductions or withholdings applicable to the additional amounts due under this paragraph), shall be the same as if no such tax, duty, deduction or withholding had been

-4-

applicable. Borrower shall make all such deductions and withholdings and shall pay the full amount so deducted to the relevant governmental or other taxing authorities.

Nothing contained in this Section 13 should be construed as imposing upon Borrower any liability for Lender’s income tax.

14. Increased Costs. To the extent that (due to future laws or regulations or changes in existing laws or regulations, or due to actions or interpretations by any governmental authorities relating to reserve or special deposit requirements or capital maintenance rules, or otherwise) Lender shall hereafter incur additional costs in connection with the extension of credit evidenced hereby, or Lender’s net income in connection therewith shall be reduced, Borrower, immediately upon written notice thereof from Lender, shall reimburse Lender in the amount of all such additional costs or reductions in income; Lender’s certificate as to any of the foregoing events, showing its computation of such amount of additional costs or reduced income, shall be binding upon Borrower, absent manifest error.

15. Assignability. Borrower may not assign or delegate any of its rights or duties under this Note without the prior written consent of Lender, which consent Lender may grant or deny in its sole and absolute discretion.

No delay on the part of Lender in exercising any of its options, powers, rights or remedies hereunder, nor any partial or single exercise thereof, shall constitute a waiver thereof. No purported amendment of this Note, nor any waiver by Lender of any default, shall be effective unless made in writing and duly executed by an authorized officer of Lender; nor shall any such waiver operate as a waiver of such default on any other occasion.

17. Remedies. All of Lender’ remedies provided for herein shall be cumulative and not in exclusion of any other rights and remedies Lender may at any time have in connection with this Note or under law, equity or any other agreement.

18. Severability. Any provision in this Note which is unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall be ineffective to the extent of such unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.
