Seller shall have until the 30^th day after Buyer delivers to Seller the Closing Date Balance Sheet, the Closing Date Working Capital calculation and the work papers and other documents and data that were used to prepare the same in which to review the Closing Date Balance Sheet and Closing Date Working Capital and propose any adjustments thereto. All adjustments proposed by Seller shall be set out in reasonable detail in a written statement delivered to Buyer (the “Adjustment Statement”) and shall be incorporated into the Closing Date Balance Sheet and Closing Date Working Capital, unless Buyer objects in writing to such proposed adjustments (the proposed adjustment or adjustments to which Buyer objects are referred to herein as the “Contested Adjustments” and Buyer’s objection notice is referred to herein as the “Contested Adjustment Notice”) within ten days after Seller’s delivery of the Adjustment Statement to Buyer. If at the time of delivery of the Contested Adjustment Notice, Seller and Buyer do not dispute that a sum, net of the effects of the Contested Adjustments, is owed by one party to the other pursuant to Section 2.4(d) (an “Interim Payment”), then the owing party shall pay such Interim Payment within five Business Days thereafter. Buyer’s Contested Adjustment Notice shall provide reasonably specific and detailed objections to, and Buyer’s good faith calculations of, the Contested Adjustments. If Buyer timely delivers a Contested Adjustment Notice to Seller, Buyer and Seller shall attempt in good faith to resolve their dispute regarding the Contested Adjustments, but if a final resolution is not obtained within 30 days after Buyer delivers to Seller said timely Contested Adjustment Notice, either Buyer or Seller may at any time thereafter retain for the benefit of both parties a nationally recognized independent accounting firm reasonably acceptable to both Seller and Buyer (the “Independent Accountant”) to resolve any remaining disputes concerning the Contested Adjustments. The Independent Accountant shall be the sole arbiter of all matters, procedural or substantive, as to the Contested Adjustments. Each of the parties shall execute any

engagement agreements and fund one-half of any retainer amount customarily requested by the Independent Accountant (subject to the reimbursement provisions contained below). If the Independent Accountant is retained, then Seller and Buyer shall each submit to the Independent Accountant in writing, not later than 15 days after the Independent Accountant is retained, their respective positions with respect to the Contested Adjustments, together with such supporting documentation as they deem necessary or as the Independent Accountant requests. The Independent Accountant shall not review or take into account any information that is not submitted in writing on a timely basis in accordance with the deadlines in this Section 2.4 and shall only make a determination as to the Contested Adjustments (and only within the ranges submitted by the parties) and not any other items on the Closing Date Balance Sheet or affecting the Closing Date Working Capital. The Independent Accountant shall, within 30 days after receiving the positions of both Seller and Buyer and all supplementary supporting documentation requested by the Independent Accountant, but in any event no later than 45 days after being retained, render its decision as to the Contested Adjustments, which decision shall be deemed an arbitral award that is final and binding on, and nonappealable by, Seller and Buyer. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant shall be paid by the party whose estimate of the Contested Adjustments, in the aggregate, is furthest from the Independent Accountant’s calculation of the Contested Adjustments, in the aggregate, based on the relative absolute values of such estimates and calculation, and any retainer payment provided to the Independent Accountant by the other party shall promptly be refunded to such party. The decision of the Independent Accountant shall include a certificate of the Independent Accountant setting forth the Closing Date Working Capital calculation (the “Settlement Certificate”). The “Closing Date Working Capital” shall be deemed to include all proposed adjustments not disputed by Buyer and those adjustments accepted or made by the Independent Accountant in resolving the Contested Adjustments.

(d) Settlement.

(i) If the Closing Date Working Capital as finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.4 is greater than the Estimated Closing Date Working Capital, on the Settlement Date Buyer shall pay to Seller the amount of such excess, taking into account any Interim Payment.

(ii) If the Closing Date Working Capital as finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.4 is less than the Estimated Closing Date Working Capital, on the Settlement Date Seller shall pay to Buyer the amount of such shortfall, taking into account any Interim Payment.

(iii) There shall be a “Settlement Date” after the final determination of the Closing Date Working Capital, which shall mean the following, as applicable:

(1) If Seller has not timely delivered an Adjustment Statement to Buyer, 35 days after the date Seller receives the Closing Date Balance Sheet, Closing Date Working Capital calculation and supporting documentation;

(2) If Seller has timely delivered an Adjustment Statement and Buyer has not timely delivered a Contested Adjustment Notice, 15 days after the date Buyer receives the Adjustment Statement;

(3) If Seller and Buyer have any disputes regarding Contested Adjustments and they resolve all of those disputes in writing, two Business Days after such resolution;

(4) Two Business Days after the Independent Accountant delivers the Settlement Certificate, if applicable; or

(5) Such other date as may be agreed in writing between Seller and Buyer.

Section 2.5 Purchase Price Adjustment with respect to Certain Contracts.

(a) If any Key Contract is terminated by the service recipient for any reason during the period from the day after the Closing Date through the date that is six months after the Closing Date, Seller shall pay to Buyer, within 60 days of the date of termination of such Key Contract, an amount in cash equal to two times the Key Contract Contribution associated with the terminated Key Contract. If any Key Contract is terminated by the service recipient for any reason during the period from the day after the date that is six months after the Closing Date through the first anniversary of the Closing Date, Seller shall pay to Buyer, within 60 days of the date of termination of such Key Contract, an amount in cash equal to the Key Contract Contribution associated with the terminated Key Contract. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer shall not be entitled to any payment resulting from the termination of a Key Contract to the extent that (i) the service recipient’s termination of the Key Contract is reasonably related to (A) a breach by Buyer or any of its Affiliates who are party to such Key Contract of the terms thereof or (B) failure of Buyer or any of such Affiliates to provide services in connection with the Key Contract of at least the same quality (and using at least the same standard of care) as were provided to the service recipient prior to the Closing Date or (ii) Buyer or any of its Affiliates or Representatives (including Representatives acting in their capacity as officers or employees of Seller) encourage or induce (whether prior to or after the Closing Date) the service recipient to terminate such Key Contract.

(b) For each Prospective Contract that an Acquired Company enters into during the 24-month period immediately following the Closing Date, Buyer shall pay to Seller an amount equal to the EBITDA Contribution of such executed Prospective Contract for the 12-month period commencing on the first day of the 13^th month after the commencement date of the applicable Prospective Contract, payable within 90 days after the end of such 12 month period; provided, however, that the amount payable with respect to any executed Prospective Contract pursuant to this Section 2.5(b) shall not be less than 90%, nor more than 110%, of the Pricing Model Contribution associated with such Prospective Contract for those Prospective Contracts for which a Pricing Model Contribution amount is set forth on Schedule 2.5(b), and for other Prospective Contracts shall not be less than 90%, nor more than 125%, of the Pricing Model Contribution associated with such Prospective Contract; provided further, that the aggregate payments by Buyer to Seller in respect of all executed Prospective Contracts shall not exceed $5,000,000.

(c) Buyer shall deliver to Seller a report showing an itemized calculation of the EBITDA Contribution associated with each executed Prospective Contract (along with any supporting documentation reasonably requested by Seller) within 30 days after the end of each fiscal quarter of the Acquired Companies. At the reasonable request of Seller, Buyer shall deliver any information or documentation relating to the circumstances surrounding any termination of a Key Contract by the service recipient prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date.

(d) In the event of a good faith disagreement between the parties with respect to the calculation of the EBITDA Contribution of any executed Prospective Contract, the parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve such disagreement in a timely fashion. In the event that the parties are unable to resolve such disagreement within 30 days, either party may retain a nationally recognized accounting firm that is reasonably acceptable to each party in order to resolve such disagreement. The accounting firm shall use the same procedures that are set forth in Section 2.4(c) herein with respect to the settlement of a Contested Adjustment, mutatis mutandis, in order to settle such disagreement.

(e) Buyer agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to attempt to enter into each Prospective Contract in a timely fashion, and shall not take any actions outside of the ordinary course of business that would minimize or reduce the amounts payable under Section 2.5(b) above.

Section 2.6 Tax Treatment of Payments. Any payments made with respect to adjustments under Section 2.4 or Section 2.5 shall be deemed to be, and each of Buyer and Seller shall treat them as, adjustments to the Purchase Price for federal, state, local and all other income Tax purposes.

Section 2.7 Allocation of Purchase Price. Seller and Buyer agree that the Purchase Price shall be allocated for all purposes (including Tax and financial accounting) as shown on the allocation schedule (the “Allocation Schedule”). A draft of the Allocation Schedule shall be prepared by Buyer and delivered to Seller within 60 days following the Closing Date. If Seller notifies Buyer in writing that Seller objects to one or more items reflected in the Allocation Schedule, Seller and Buyer shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such dispute; provided, however, that if Seller and Buyer are unable to resolve any dispute with respect to the Allocation Schedule within 60 days following the Closing Date, such dispute shall be resolved by the Independent Accountant, whose fees and expenses shall be borne equally by Seller and Buyer. Buyer and Seller shall file all Tax Returns (including amended returns and claims for refund) and information reports in a manner consistent with the Allocation Schedule. Any adjustments to the Purchase Price pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be allocated in a manner consistent with the Allocation Schedule.

conducted. Buyer is duly qualified or licensed to do business and is in good standing in each other jurisdiction in which the property owned, leased or operated by Buyer, or the nature of the business conducted by Buyer, makes such qualification necessary, except in such jurisdictions where the failure to be so qualified or licensed and in good standing would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on Buyer. Buyer has made available to Seller copies of its articles of organization and any other applicable organization and operating documents, which are in full force and effect as of the date hereof.

Section 4.2 No Conflicts.

No consent of or filing with any Governmental Entity is necessary or required by or with respect to Buyer in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement by Buyer or the consummation by Buyer of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except for any consent or filing the absence of which would not reasonably be expected to, individually or in the aggregate, materially impair Buyer’s ability to perform its obligations hereunder.

Section 4.4 Broker’s or Finder’s Fee. No Person acting on behalf of Buyer is, or shall be, entitled to any broker’s fees, finder’s fees or commissions from Buyer or Seller in connection with this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 4.6 Funds; Solvency.

(a) Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, Buyer has delivered to Seller correct and complete copies of (a) executed subscription agreements dated within 30 days of the date of this Agreement (collectively, the “Equity Commitment Letters”) evidencing irrevocable obligations to purchase not less than $14,000,000 of equity interests in Buyer (collectively, the “Equity Financing”), which funds Buyer will use to pay a portion of the Purchase Price and all other amounts to be paid or repaid by Buyer under this Agreement (whether payable on or after the Closing), and all of Buyer’s and its Affiliates’ fees and expenses associated with the transactions contemplated in this Agreement and (b) an executed commitment letter, dated the date hereof (together with associated lender fee letters, the “Debt Commitment Letter”), from the lenders named therein, to provide Buyer with up to $30 million in senior secured credit facilities comprised of term loan facilities aggregating up to $24 million and a revolving credit facility of up to $6 million (the “Debt Financing”). The Debt Financing together with the Equity Financing is herein collectively referred to as the “Financing”, and the Debt Commitment Letter and the Equity Commitment Letters are herein collectively referred to as the “Commitment Letters.” As of the date hereof, the Commitment Letters in the forms so delivered are valid and in full force and effect, such commitments have not been withdrawn, terminated or otherwise amended or modified in any respect (and no party thereto has expressed a desire or intent to do so), and no event has occurred that, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would constitute a default or breach on the part of Buyer or any of the equity investors under any term or condition of any of the Commitment Letters. The Commitment Letters constitute, as of the date hereof, the entire and complete agreement between the parties thereto with respect to the financings contemplated thereby, and, except as set forth, described or provided for in any Commitment Letter, (i) there are no (A) conditions precedent to the obligations of the counterparties to the Equity Commitment Letters to pay the purchase price for the equity interests in Buyer as provided therein, or (B) conditions precedent to the respective obligations of the lenders to provide the Debt Financing, and (ii) there are no contractual contingencies or other provisions under any agreement (including any side letters) relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to which Buyer or any of its Affiliates is a party that would permit any investor under an Equity Commitment Letter or any of the lenders to reduce the total amount of the Financing or impose any additional condition precedent to the availability of the proceeds of the Equity Financing or any additional condition precedent to the availability of the Financing. As of the date hereof, Buyer has no reason to believe that any of the conditions to the Financing will not be satisfied on a timely basis or that any of the funding contemplated in the Financing will not be made available to Buyer on a timely basis in order to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Any and all commitment fees, if any, or other fees required by any of the Commitment Letters to be paid as of the date hereof have been fully paid. The aggregate proceeds of the Financing, when funded in accordance with the Commitment Letters, will provide financing sufficient to pay the Purchase Price and all other amounts to be paid or repaid by Buyer under this Agreement (whether payable on or after the Closing), and all of Buyer’s and its Affiliates’ fees and expenses associated with the transactions contemplated in this Agreement.

(b) Buyer is not entering the transactions contemplated hereby with actual intent to hinder, delay or defraud either present or future creditors. Immediately after giving effect to the transactions contemplated hereby, Buyer and the Acquired Companies will be Solvent.

Section 4.7 Investment Intent.

(a) Buyer is acquiring the Interests for its own account, for investment purposes only and not with a view toward, or for sale in connection with, any distribution thereof, nor with any present intention of distributing or selling the Interests, in violation of the federal securities Laws or any applicable foreign or state securities Law.

(b) Buyer understands that the acquisition of the Interests pursuant to the terms of this Agreement involves substantial risk. The members and other principals of Buyer have experience as investors in securities such as the Interests and equity interests of companies such as the Acquired Companies, can bear the economic risk of their investment (which may be for an indefinite period) and have such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that they are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of their investment in Buyer and Buyer’s investment in the Interests.

(c) Buyer acknowledges that the Interests have not been registered under the Securities Act and cannot be transferred, sold, offered for sale, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of without registration under the Securities Act and any other provision of applicable state securities Laws or pursuant to an applicable exemption therefrom. Buyer understands that there is no public market for the Interests and that there can be no assurance that a public market will develop.

Section 4.8 Investigation by Buyer. Buyer has conducted its own independent investigation, verification, review and analysis of the businesses, operations, assets, liabilities, results of operations, financial condition and prospects of the Acquired Companies to the extent Buyer deemed appropriate. Buyer acknowledges that it and its Representatives have been provided adequate access to the personnel, properties, premises and records of the Acquired Companies and the audit workpapers of the Acquired Companies’ auditors for such purpose. Buyer acknowledges that it has relied solely upon the aforementioned investigation, review and analysis and not on any representations or opinions of Seller, other than the representations and warranties of Seller set forth in Article III.

Section 4.9 No Knowledge of Misrepresentation or Omission. None of Buyer or any of its Representatives identified in Section 1.5(b) of the Disclosure Schedules has any knowledge that the representations and warranties of Seller made in this Agreement are inaccurate or untrue (including any knowledge of errors in or omissions from the Disclosure Schedules) or that, as of the date hereof, Seller is in breach of any agreement or covenant contained in this Agreement.

Section 4.10 Exclusivity of Representations. The representations and warranties made by Buyer in this Article IV are the exclusive representations and warranties made by Buyer with respect to itself. Buyer hereby disclaims any other express or implied representations or warranties with respect to itself.

Section 5.2 Access to Information. Seller shall afford to Buyer and its Representatives reasonable access, upon reasonable advance written notice, during normal business hours prior to the Closing, to the properties, books, Contracts and records of the Acquired Companies and, with Seller’s prior consent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), to the employees, officers, clients and vendors of the Acquired Companies.

Section 5.3 No Solicitation of Other Bids.

Seller shall immediately cease and cause to be terminated, and shall cause its Affiliates (including the Company) and all of its and their Representatives to immediately cease and cause to be terminated, all existing discussions or negotiations with any Persons conducted heretofore with respect to, or that could lead to, an Acquisition Proposal. For purposes hereof, “Acquisition Proposal” shall mean any proposal or offer from any Person (other than Buyer or any of its Affiliates) concerning (i) a merger, consolidation, liquidation, recapitalization or other business combination transaction involving any Acquired Company; (ii) the issuance or acquisition of equity interests in any Acquired Company; (iii) the sale, lease, exchange or other disposition of any significant portion of the Acquired Companies’ properties or assets; or (iv) the transfer or assignment of any Key Contract; provided that the term “Acquisition Proposal” shall not include any proposal or offer relating to a direct or indirect acquisition (including by way of merger, consolidation, recapitalization, asset sale or other similar transaction) of any assets or equity securities of Seller or its Subsidiaries, so long as none of such assets and equity securities consist of assets or equity securities of the Acquired Companies.

(b) Seller agrees that the rights and remedies for non-compliance with this Section 5.3 shall include having such provision specifically enforced by any court having equity jurisdiction, it being acknowledged and agreed that any such breach or threatened breach shall cause irreparable injury to Buyer and that money damages would not provide an adequate remedy to Buyer.

Section 5.4 Notices and Consents.

(a) Seller and Buyer shall each use reasonable best efforts to obtain all third party consents that are required to be obtained in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Buyer agrees that, unless Seller failed to use reasonable best efforts, Seller shall not have any liability to Buyer arising out of or relating to the failure to obtain any consents or waivers that may be required in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or because of the termination of any Contract as a result thereof.

(b) Each of the parties shall give any notices to, make any filings with, and use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any authorizations, consents and approvals of

(a) The parties acknowledge that, from and after the Closing, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ (the “Shared Executives”) shall provide employment services to both Seller and the Company. Seller shall enter into an amended employment agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D-1 or Exhibit D-2, as applicable (the “Seller Employment Agreements”), acknowledging the allocation of the Shared Executive’s time between the Seller and the Company from and after the Closing. Buyer shall cause the Company to enter into an employment agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D-3 or Exhibit D-4, as applicable (the “Company Employment Agreements”), providing for the employment of the Shared Executives by the Company from and after the Closing.

(b) During the term of the Services Agreement, Buyer shall not permit any of the Acquired Companies to employ any officer or executive employee of Seller or its Subsidiaries, other than the Shared Executives (each, a “GEO Executive”) in any capacity or accept any services from any GEO Executive, without the consent and approval of a disinterested committee of the Board of Directors of Seller; provided that any GEO Executive may serve as a director or chairman of the Company or of Buyer and perform the services customarily associated with each role.

Section 5.6 Employee Matters.

(a) From and after the Closing Date, Buyer shall cause the Acquired Companies to offer similar employment, severance and other compensation and benefit plans, arrangements and policies to the employees of such Acquired Company as are in effect on the date hereof (it being understood that this Section 5.6(a) shall not be deemed to prohibit the Buyer or the Acquired Companies from amending, modifying, replacing or terminating such arrangements in accordance with their terms). To the extent permitted by the employee benefit plans of Seller and applicable Law, all employees of the Acquired Companies who continue to be employed by the Acquired Companies after the Closing and who, as of the Closing, were participants in Seller’s employee benefit plans shall continue to participate in such plans until such time as the Company is able to transition the employees to employee benefit plans of the Company, but in no event later than July 1, 2013. Nothing in this Section 5.6(a), express or implied, is intended to confer on any Person other than the parties hereto or their respective successors and assigns any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Section 5.6.

(b) Promptly following the Closing, without any action on the part of any holder, each then-outstanding unvested Employee Equity Award (other than those held by the Shared Executives) shall become fully vested, and Seller shall terminate and settle each such Employee Equity Award by payment to the holder of an amount in cash (subject to applicable payroll and withholding taxes) equal to the value of such Employee Equity Award based on the Seller Closing Stock Price (net of any exercise price or other base amount used to calculate the value of such Award). Seller shall make all payments due pursuant to this Section 5.6(b) within

15 days after the Closing Date and shall take all actions that may be necessary under its stock-based compensation plans and other legal requirements to effectuate the acceleration, termination and settlement of Employee Equity Awards pursuant to this Section 5.6(b). For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 5.6 shall not apply to any equity-based award held by any employee or consultant of Seller or any of its Subsidiaries who immediately after the Closing continues to be employed or retained by such entity.

Section 5.7 Conversion to Limited Liability Company. Seller shall use reasonable best efforts to effect the Conversion prior to the Closing Date and to effect the conversion, prior to the Closing Date, of each of the other Acquired Companies to a limited liability company under the laws of its current jurisdiction of organization. In furtherance thereof, Seller shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, execute, deliver and file such documents and instruments, in such form as shall be reasonably satisfactory to Buyer, and take such further actions as may be reasonably required to effect the Conversion and such other conversions prior to the Closing Date.

Section 5.8 License Agreement. Schedule 5.8 sets forth the Marks and Domain Names owned by Seller or its Affiliates and used by the Acquired Companies in their businesses (collectively, the “Seller Retained Marks”). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time, either Buyer or Seller (or any of the Acquired Companies) discovers any ▇▇▇▇ or Domain Name registration or application for any Seller Retained ▇▇▇▇ that is owned or registered in the name of the Acquired Companies, the parties hereto shall take all reasonable actions to promptly effect the transfer and assignment of such ▇▇▇▇ or Domain Name registrations and applications to Seller or one of its Affiliates (as determined by Seller). Upon the Closing, Seller and the Company shall enter into the License Agreement with respect to the Seller Retained Marks. Except as expressly set forth in the License Agreement, neither Buyer nor any of its Affiliates shall have any right or license to use the Seller Retained Marks and shall cease any and all use thereof.

Section 5.9 Release of Guarantors and Collateral. Schedule 5.9 contains a list of all obligations of Seller for which any of the Acquired Companies is a guarantor (the “Guaranteed Obligations”). On or prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall cause (i) each of the Acquired Companies to be released unconditionally as a guarantor of each of the Guaranteed Obligations and (ii) all Liens placed on the assets of the Acquired Companies as security for the Guaranteed Obligations to be released. All Indebtedness of any of the Acquired Companies to Seller or any of its Subsidiaries shall be cancelled as of the Closing Date.

Section 5.10 Public Announcements. Buyer and Seller each agree to (a) consult with each other before issuing any press release or otherwise making any public statement with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (b) provide to the other for review a copy of any such press release or public statement and (c) not issue any such press release or make any such public statement prior to such consultation and review and the receipt of the prior written consent of the other, unless required by applicable Law and then only to the extent so required.

Section 5.11 Transfer Taxes. Each of Buyer and Seller shall pay one half of all stamp, transfer, documentary, sales and use, value added, registration and other such Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 5.12 Preservation of Records.

(a) For a period of seven years after the Closing Date or such other longer period as may be required by applicable Law, Buyer shall preserve and retain, and shall cause the Acquired Companies to preserve and retain, all corporate, accounting, tax, legal, auditing, human resources and other books and records of the Acquired Companies (including (i) any documents relating to any governmental or non-governmental Actions or investigations and (ii) all Returns, schedules, work papers and other material records or other documents relating to the Acquired Companies’ Taxes) relating to the Acquired Companies’ businesses and operations prior to the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, during such seven-year period, Buyer may dispose of any such books and records that are offered to, but not accepted by, Seller. Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, the obligations of Buyer contained in this Section 5.12 shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of Buyer. In the event Buyer or the Acquired Companies, or their respective successors or assigns, (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its assets to any Person, then, and in each case, proper provision shall be made so that the successor, assign or acquirer of Buyer or the Acquired Companies, as the case may be, honor Buyer’s obligations that are set forth in this Section 5.12.

(b) If and for so long as either of Buyer or Seller is actively contesting or defending against any Action in connection with any fact, situation, circumstance, status, condition, activity, practice, plan, occurrence, event, incident, action, failure to act or transaction on or prior to the Closing Date involving an Acquired Company, the other party shall cooperate with it and its counsel in the defense or contest, make available its personnel and provide such testimony and access to its books and records as shall be necessary or reasonably requested in connection with the defense or contest, all at the sole cost and expense of the contesting or defending party.

Section 5.13 Resignation of Officers and Directors. Upon Buyer’s written request received by Seller no less than three Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall cause any officer or member of the board of directors or similar governing body of an Acquired Company whose resignation is requested by Buyer to resign from such position as of the Closing Date.

Section 5.14 Financing.

(a) Buyer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the Debt Financing on the terms and conditions set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter, including using commercially reasonable efforts to: (i) enter into definitive agreements regarding the Debt Financing; (ii) timely satisfy (or obtain a waiver of) all conditions in such definitive agreements within Buyer’s control; and (iii) consummate the Debt Financing contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter at the Closing. Buyer shall enforce promptly its rights under the Debt Commitment Letter. Without the prior written consent of Seller, Buyer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates to, take or fail to take any action or enter into any transaction that

could reasonably be expected to materially impair, delay or prevent consummation of the Debt Financing contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter. In the event any portion of the Debt Financing expires or is terminated or otherwise becomes unavailable on the terms and conditions contemplated in the Debt Commitment Letter, Buyer shall notify Seller promptly (and in any event within two Business Days) in writing of such unavailability and the reasons therefor and shall thereafter use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain alternative financing (“Alternative Financing”), including from alternative sources on terms no less favorable to Buyer than those set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter, as promptly as practicable following the occurrence of such event. Buyer shall keep Seller informed on a reasonably current basis in reasonable detail of the status of its efforts to arrange the Debt Financing or any Alternative Financing and shall not permit any material amendment or material modification to be made to any Debt Commitment Letter without the prior written consent of Seller. Buyer shall provide prompt notice to Seller upon receiving the Debt Financing or any Alternative Financing and shall furnish to Seller correct and complete copies of the definitive agreements with respect thereto upon their execution.

(b) Buyer shall cause the Equity Financing to be obtained, shall proceed with the transactions contemplated by the Equity Commitment Letters and shall promptly enforce its rights under the Equity Commitment Letters. Buyer shall not permit any amendment or modification to be made to any of the Equity Commitment Letters without the prior written consent of Seller if such amendment or modification would reasonably be expected to delay or prevent the Closing or make the funding of the Equity Financing less likely to occur.

(c) Seller shall cause the Acquired Companies to cooperate in connection with the arrangement of the Debt Financing as Buyer may reasonably request, including by (i) participating in meetings (including lender meetings), presentations, due diligence and drafting sessions; (ii) assisting with the preparation of materials for presentations, offering documents, private placement memoranda, bank information memoranda and similar documents required in connection with the Financing; (iii) furnishing Buyer and its financing sources financial and other pertinent information regarding the Acquired Companies as Buyer may reasonably request to consummate the offerings of debt securities contemplated by the Debt Financing; (iv) requesting of the appropriate Person, and using their good faith efforts to obtain, such accountant’s letters, legal opinions, and similar assurances as Buyer may reasonably request; (v) cooperating with, in accordance with and subject to the limitations contained in Section 5.2, prospective lenders involved in the Debt Financing to provide access to the Acquired Companies’ assets, cash management and accounting systems; and (vi) otherwise reasonably cooperating in Buyer’s efforts to obtain the Financing (including requesting of the appropriate Persons, and using their good faith efforts to obtain, customary officers’ certificates and other similar documents as Buyer may reasonably request and facilitating the pledge of, and granting of security interests in, the equity interests and assets of the Acquired Companies after the Closing); provided that the Acquired Companies shall not be required to provide cooperation under this Section 5.14(b) that: (A) unreasonably interferes with the ongoing business of the Acquired Companies or is unlawful; (B) is reasonably likely to cause any representation, warranty or other covenant in this Agreement to be breached; (C) is reasonably likely to cause any closing condition set forth in Article VI to fail to be satisfied or otherwise to cause the breach of this Agreement or any Contract to which an Acquired Company is a party; or (D) is reasonably likely to cause Seller or its Affiliates to incur any material liability.

Section 5.15 Tax Matters. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the following provisions of this Section 5.15 shall govern the allocation between Buyer and Seller of responsibility for certain Tax matters addressed herein following the Closing Date.

(a) Seller shall prepare or cause to be prepared, and file or cause to be filed, all Returns for the Acquired Companies for all Tax periods ending on or before the Closing Date that are due after the Closing Date. Buyer shall prepare or cause to be prepared, and file or cause to be filed, all Returns for the Acquired Companies for all Tax periods that begin before the Closing Date and end after the Closing Date (the “Straddle Periods”). All such Returns shall be prepared in a manner consistent with the Acquired Companies’ past practices. Such Returns shall be provided to Seller for its review and comment and approval not later than 30 days before the due date for filing such Returns (including extensions), and Buyer shall accept all such comments that are consistent with the past practices of the Acquired Companies in preparing such Straddle Period Returns. In the event that Seller shall reasonably object to any items set forth on such Returns, such objection shall be provided to Buyer in writing no later than 15 days before the due date for filing such Returns (including extensions) and the parties shall attempt to resolve such objection in good faith prior to the due date for filing such Returns. In the event that such objection is not resolved prior to the due date for filing such Return, Buyer shall timely file such Return and the parties shall resolve the dispute in good faith after the date of such filing, amending such Return as necessary. Neither Buyer nor any of its Affiliates shall file or permit to be filed any amended Return with respect to the Acquired Companies for any Pre-Closing Taxable Period or Straddle Period without the prior written consent of Seller.

(b) For purposes of this Agreement, in the case of any Taxes that are imposed on a periodic basis and are payable for Straddle Periods, the portion of such Taxes related to the Pre-Closing Taxable Period will (i) in the case of Taxes other than Taxes based upon or related to income, sales, gross receipts, wages, capital expenditures, expenses or any similar Tax base, be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the Tax period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire Tax period and (ii) in the case of any Tax based upon or related to income, sales, gross receipts, wages, capital expenditures, expenses or any similar Tax base, be deemed equal to the amount that would be payable if the relevant Tax period had ended on the Closing Date. All determinations necessary to give effect to the foregoing allocations will be made in a manner consistent with past practices of the Acquired Companies.

(c) All refunds of Taxes relating to the Acquired Companies with respect to Pre-Closing Taxable Periods will be for the account of Seller, and Buyer will pay over to Seller any such refunds that Buyer or its Affiliates may receive within 15 days after receipt thereof.

(d) Buyer and Seller shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party, in connection with the preparation and filing of Returns pursuant to this Section 5.15 (including the preparation and filing of any claims for refunds of Taxes) and any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation shall include signing any Returns, amended Returns, claims or other documents necessary to settle any Tax controversy, the retention and (upon the other party’s request) the provision of records and

information that are reasonably relevant to any such audit, litigation or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, each party will bear its own expenses in complying with the foregoing provisions. Buyer and Seller further agree, upon request from the other party, to use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any Governmental Entity or any other Person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any Tax that could be imposed (including, but not limited to, with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby).

(e) Each party will promptly notify the other in writing upon receipt by such party (or any of its Affiliates) of notice of any pending or threatened Tax liabilities of the Acquired Companies for any Pre-Closing Taxable Period or Straddle Period. Seller will have the right (but not the obligation) to solely represent the interests of the Acquired Companies in any Tax audit or administrative or court proceeding for any Pre-Closing Taxable Period that ends on or prior to the Closing Date and to employ counsel of its choice, and Buyer agrees to cooperate in the defense of any claim in such proceeding. Seller will have the right to participate in representing the interests of the Acquired Companies in any Tax audit or administrative or court proceeding for any Straddle Period, if and to the extent that such period includes any Pre-Closing Taxable Period, and to employ counsel of its choice at its expense. Buyer and Seller agree to cooperate in the defense of any claim in such proceeding. Buyer or its Affiliates may not settle, compromise or resolve any Tax audit or administrative or court proceeding for any Pre-Closing Taxable Period or Straddle Period that includes a Pre-Closing Taxable Period without the consent of Seller, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(f) Any payments made under this Section 5.15 shall be deemed to be, and each party shall treat them as, adjustments to the Purchase Price for federal, state, local and all other income Tax purposes.

Section 5.16 Supplemental Information. Seller may (but is not required to), from time to time prior to the Closing, by giving notice thereof to Buyer, supplement or amend the Disclosure Schedules (each, a “Supplement”), including one or more Supplements to correct any matter first arising after the date hereof which (i) would constitute a breach of any representation or warranty contained herein if such representation or warranty were given on such date or (ii) may constitute a breach of any agreement or covenant contained herein. If, as a result of information disclosed in such Supplement, Buyer is entitled to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1(a)(vi) but does not deliver written notice of such termination on or prior to the earlier of (A) the Closing Date or (b) the third Business Day following receipt of the Supplement, Buyer shall be deemed to have waived for all purposes of this Agreement all rights and remedies hereunder (including its right to not consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement due to the failure of any of the conditions set forth in Article VI and those rights and remedies set forth in Article VIII) or under applicable Law with respect to information set forth in the Supplement and such information shall be deemed to be included in the Disclosure Schedules. Buyer shall promptly notify Seller after Buyer or any of its Representatives become aware of any matter that could be disclosed pursuant to a Supplement, and Buyer shall provide a reasonably detailed description thereof.

Section 5.17 Insurance Claims. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Seller shall retain financial responsibility for all pending insurance claims against any Acquired Company as of the Closing Date, whether or not those claims are identified on Section 3.18 of the Disclosure Schedules, and for all insurance claims asserted from and after the Closing Date that relate to occurrences prior to the Closing Date. Any Loss incurred by an Acquired Company with respect to insurance claims that relate to occurrences prior to the Closing Date shall be deemed to be a Qualifying Loss (regardless of the amount of such Loss) and shall not be subject to the Deductible or to the maximum indemnification amount set forth in Section 8.4(a), nor shall any such Loss be counted towards the Deductible for purposes of determining whether Buyer is entitled to indemnification for any other types of Losses.

Section 5.18 Closing Conditions. From the date hereof until the Closing, each party hereto shall, and Seller shall cause the Acquired Companies to, use reasonable best efforts to take such actions as are necessary to expeditiously satisfy the closing conditions set forth in Article VI hereof.

Section 5.19 Accounts Receivable. On the Closing Date or as soon as practicable thereafter, but in any event not more than five Business Days after the Closing Date, Seller and Buyer shall jointly notify the customers of the Acquired Companies that the Acquired Companies have been acquired by Buyer. Such notice need not be given to customers that previously had been notified in writing of the pending acquisition.

Section 5.20 Tax Sharing Agreements. All tax-sharing agreements or similar agreements with respect to or involving any Acquired Company shall be terminated as of the Closing Date and, after the Closing Date, no Acquired Company shall be bound thereby or have any liability thereunder.

Section 5.21 Further Assurances. Buyer and Seller shall each execute such documents and other instruments and take such further actions as may be reasonably required or desirable to carry out the provisions of this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, Buyer and Seller shall each use its commercially reasonable efforts to take or cause to be taken all actions and to do or cause to be done all other things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective as promptly as practicable the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(a) This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing:

Section 7.2 Effect of Termination . In the event of termination of this Agreement as provided in Section 7.1, this Agreement shall immediately become null and void and there shall be no liability or obligation on the part of Seller or Buyer or their respective Representatives or Affiliates; provided, however, that termination pursuant to Section 7.1(a)(iii), (iv) or (v) shall not relieve a defaulting or breaching party from any liability or obligation resulting from any default or breach hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this Section 7.2 and Article IX shall remain in full force and effect and survive any termination of this Agreement.

ARTICLE VIII

SURVIVAL; INDEMNIFICATION

Section 8.1 Survival of Representations and Warranties.

(a) The respective representations and warranties of Seller and Buyer contained in Articles III and IV (except as set forth below) shall survive the Closing solely for the purpose of Sections 8.2 and 8.3 until the date that is twelve months after the Closing Date; provided that the representations and warranties in Section 3.1 (Due Organization, Good Standing, Power and Enforceability), Section 3.3 (Capitalization), Section 3.14 (Broker’s or Finder’s Fee), Section 4.1 (Due Organization, Good Standing, Power and Enforceability) and Section 4.4 (Broker’s or Finder’s Fee) shall survive until the date of expiration of all applicable statutes of limitation.

(b) Neither Seller nor Buyer shall have any liability whatsoever with respect to any representation or warranty unless a claim is made hereunder prior to the expiration of such survival period and in accordance with the provisions of this Article VIII, in which case such representation or warranty shall survive as to such claim until such claim has been finally resolved.

Section 8.2 Indemnification of Buyer . Subject to the limitations set forth in this Article VIII, from and after the Closing, Seller agrees to and shall indemnify Buyer and its Affiliates (including the Acquired Companies) and their respective Representatives (collectively, the “Buyer Indemnitees”) and save and hold each of them harmless against any Losses actually incurred or sustained by, or imposed upon, the Buyer Indemnitees as a result of (i) any failure of any representation or warranty made by Seller in Article III of this Agreement to be true and correct and (ii) any breach of any covenant or agreement by Seller contained in this Agreement.

Section 8.3 Indemnification of Seller . Subject to the limitations set forth in this Article VIII, from and after the Closing, Buyer agrees to and shall indemnify Seller and its Affiliates and their respective Representatives (collectively, the “Seller Indemnitees”) and save and hold each of them harmless against any Losses actually incurred or sustained by, or imposed upon, the Seller Indemnitees as a result of (i) any failure of any representation or warranty made by Buyer in Article IV of this Agreement to be true and correct and (ii) any breach of any covenant or agreement by Buyer contained in this Agreement.

Section 8.4 Limitation on Indemnification, Mitigation.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (i) Buyer shall not be indemnified for any claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 8.2 unless and until the aggregate amount of Qualifying Losses that may be recovered for indemnification pursuant to Section 8.2 equals or exceeds $360,000 (the “Deductible”), in which case Buyer shall be entitled to recover the aggregate amount of Qualifying Losses in excess of the Deductible and (ii) the maximum aggregate amount of indemnifiable Losses that may be recovered by Buyer through indemnification pursuant to Section 8.2 shall be equal to $5,000,000.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Buyer shall not be indemnified for any Loss in connection with this Agreement to the extent that such Loss relates to (i) any action taken by Buyer or any other Person (other than Seller) in breach of this Agreement, (ii) any liability of the Acquired Companies for Taxes with respect to any Tax period (or a portion thereof) that begins after the Closing Date, or (iii) any breach of a representation, warranty or covenant if Buyer or any of its Affiliates or Representatives had knowledge of such breach on the date hereof or at the time of Closing. Buyer shall take and shall cause its Affiliates and Representatives to take all commercially reasonable steps to mitigate any Loss, including incurring costs only to the minimum extent necessary to remedy the breach that gives rise to the Loss.

(c) For purposes of this Article VIII, any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty shall be determined without regard to any materiality, Material Adverse Effect or other similar qualification contained in or otherwise applicable to such representation or warranty.

Section 8.5 Losses Net of Insurance, Etc. The amount of any Loss for which indemnification is provided under Section 8.2 or Section 8.3 shall be net of (i) any amounts recovered, or reasonably expected to be recovered, by the Indemnified Party pursuant to any indemnification by or indemnification agreement with any third party, and (ii) any insurance proceeds or other cash receipts or sources of reimbursement received, or reasonably expected to be received, as an offset against such Loss (each source of recovery referred to in clauses (i) and (ii), a “Collateral Source”), and (iii) an amount equal to the realizable Tax benefit, if any, attributable to such Loss. Additionally, Buyer’s Losses (A) shall be net of any accruals or reserves to the extent accrued or reserved for in the Financial Statements, the Closing Date Balance Sheet or the Closing Date Working Capital calculation, and (B) shall not be duplicative of (1) any amount to the extent included as a liability in the Closing Date Working Capital, (2) any adjustment included in the calculation of Closing Date Working Capital or (3) any Loss related to an adjustment that was the subject of a dispute as to the Closing Date Working Capital.

The Indemnifying Party may, as a condition of providing indemnification, require an Indemnified Party to assign its rights to seek recovery from Collateral Sources; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party will then be responsible for pursuing such claim at its own expense. If the right to seek recovery from any such Collateral Source is not assigned, the Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to seek recovery from such Collateral Source; provided that the costs incurred by the Indemnified Party in seeking such recovery may be deducted from any amounts recovered or received from such Collateral Source. If the amount to be netted hereunder in connection with a Collateral Source from any payment required under Section 8.2 or Section 8.3 is determined after payment by the Indemnifying Party of any amount otherwise required to be paid to an Indemnified Party pursuant to this Article VIII, the Indemnified Party shall repay to the Indemnifying Party, promptly after such determination, any amount that the Indemnifying Party would not have had to pay pursuant to this Article VIII had such determination been made at the time of such payment, and any excess recovery from a Collateral Source shall be applied to reduce any future payments to be made by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to Section 8.2 or Section 8.3.

Section 8.6 Indemnification Procedure.

(a) Promptly after the incurrence of any Losses by any Person entitled to indemnification pursuant to any Section of this Agreement (an “Indemnified Party”), or promptly after the assertion of a Third-Party Claim (as described below) that may give rise to indemnification hereunder, if the Indemnified Party is (x) Buyer, it shall deliver to Seller, or (y) Seller, it shall deliver to Buyer (Seller or Buyer, as the case may be, the “Indemnifying Party”), a certificate (a “Claim Certificate”), which Claim Certificate shall:

(i) state that the Indemnified Party has paid or incurred Losses (or may incur Losses in connection with a Third-Party Claim) for which such Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement; and

(ii) specify in reasonable detail (and have annexed thereto all supporting documentation, including any correspondence in connection with any Third-Party Claim and paid invoices for claimed Losses) each individual item of Loss included in the amount so stated (or, in the case of a Third-Party Claim, the basis for any anticipated liability), the date such item was paid or incurred and the nature of the misrepresentation, breach of warranty, breach of covenant or claim to which each such item is related and the computation of the amount to which such Indemnified Party claims to be entitled hereunder.

(b) In the event that the Indemnifying Party objects to the indemnification of an Indemnified Party in respect of any claim or claims specified in any Claim Certificate, the Indemnifying Party shall deliver to the Indemnified Party a notice to such effect. The Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall, within the 30-day period beginning on the date of receipt by the Indemnified Party of such objection, attempt in good faith to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of such claims. If the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party agree on their respective rights with respect to any of such claims, the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall promptly prepare and sign a memorandum setting forth such agreement. Should the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party be unable to agree as to any particular item or items or amount or amounts within such time period, then the Indemnified Party may submit such dispute to a court of competent jurisdiction as set forth in Section 9.8.

(c) Claims for Losses covered by a memorandum of agreement of the nature described in Section 8.6(b), and claims for Losses the validity and amount of which have been the subject of a final non-appealable judicial determination as described in Section 8.6(b) or that have been settled with the consent of the Indemnifying Party as described in Section 8.7, are hereinafter referred to, collectively, as “Agreed Claims.” Within ten Business Days after the determination of the amount of any Agreed Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall pay to the Indemnified Party an amount equal to the Agreed Claim by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the bank account or accounts designated by the Indemnified Party in a notice to the Indemnifying Party not less than two Business Days prior to such payment.

Section 8.7 Third-Party Claims.

(a) Promptly after the assertion by any third party of any claim, demand or notice against any Indemnified Party that results or may result in the incurrence by such Indemnified Party of any Loss (provided such Loss is based upon an actual breach by the Indemnifying Party) for which such Indemnified Party would be entitled to indemnification under this Article VIII (a “Third-Party Claim”), such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party of such claim. The procedures for asserting any such Third-Party Claim or objecting to the indemnification of an Indemnified Party in respect of any Third-Party Claim shall be governed by the provisions of Section 8.6. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, but not the obligation, to conduct and control, through counsel of its choosing, the defense of any Third-Party Claim, and so long as the Indemnifying Party is reasonably contesting such Third-Party Claim in good faith, it will have the sole right to compromise or settle the same; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall give the Indemnified Party advance notice of any proposed compromise or settlement; provided further, however, no Indemnifying Party may compromise or settle any Third-Party Claim hereunder without the written consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Indemnifying Party shall permit the Indemnified Party to participate in, but not control, the defense of any such action or suit through counsel chosen by the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be borne by the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to control or conduct the defense or prosecution of a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party nevertheless shall have the right to participate in the defense or prosecution of any Third-Party Claim and, at its own expense, to employ counsel of its own choosing for such purpose.

(b) The parties hereto shall reasonably cooperate in the defense or prosecution of any Third-Party Claim, with such cooperation to include (i) the retention and the provision of the Indemnified Party’s records and information that are reasonably relevant to such Third-Party Claim, and (ii) the making available of employees on a mutually convenient basis for providing additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder, interviews, discovery and court appearances. Any party assuming the defense of any Third-Party claim shall keep the other party reasonably informed at all times of the progress and development of such party’s defense of and compromise efforts related to such Third-Party Claim, and shall furnish the other party with copies of all relevant pleadings and correspondence.

Section 8.8 Sole Remedy/Waiver. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, should the Closing occur, the remedies provided for in this Article VIII shall be the parties’ sole and exclusive remedy for any breach of the representations, warranties, agreements or covenants contained in this Agreement or any claims relating to this Agreement or any other document, certificate or agreement delivered pursuant hereto or the transactions contemplated herein or therein (other than claims arising from the other Transaction Documents, or claims arising from fraud, criminal activity or willful misconduct on the part of a party hereto in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement). In furtherance of the foregoing, the parties hereby waive (other than for claims arising from the other Transaction Documents, or claims arising fraud, criminal activity or willful misconduct on the part of a party hereto in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement), to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any and all other rights, claims and causes of action (including rights of contribution, if any, and claims for rescission) known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, which exist or may arise in the future, that it may have against Seller, any of the Acquired Companies or any of their respective Representatives, or Buyer or its Representatives, as the case may be, arising under or based upon any federal, state or local Law (including any such Law relating to environmental matters or arising under or based upon any securities Law, common law or otherwise) for any breach of the representations, warranties, agreements or covenants contained in this Agreement, except pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article VIII.

Section 8.9 Tax Treatment of Indemnity Payments. Any payments made under this Article VIII shall be deemed to be, and each party shall treat them as, adjustments to the Purchase Price for federal, state, local and all other income Tax purposes.

Section 4.01. Ownership of Licensed Property; Reservation of Rights. Licensee acknowledges and agrees that Licensor is the sole and exclusive owner of all right, title and interest in and to the Licensed Property. Neither this Agreement nor its performance confer on Licensee any right with respect to the Licensed Property other than those rights expressly granted pursuant to this

The license is exclusive, and so long as this Agreement remains in effect Licensor may not grant any other person any rights to use the Licensed Property in connection with the Business nor may it use any of the Licensed Property itself in connection with the Business. For the avoidance of doubt, except to the extent expressly set forth in the License, nothing herein shall be construed as restricting Licensor’s right to use or to grant any other person any right to use the GEO ▇▇▇▇ on a stand-alone basis or in combination with any other words or marks. Any use of the Licensed Marks by Licensee shall inure to the benefit of Licensor. Licensee shall not, (a) challenge the validity or ownership of the Licensed Property or any other marks of Licensor or claim adversely or assist in any claim adverse to Licensor concerning any right, title or interest in the Licensed Property, (b) do or permit any act which may directly or indirectly impair or prejudice Licensor’s title to the Licensed Property or be detrimental to the reputation and goodwill of Licensor, including any act which might assist or give rise to any application to remove or de-register any of the Licensed Property or other marks of Licensor, or (c) register or use or attempt to register or to use any trademark, service ▇▇▇▇, design, company name, trade name, or domain name which may be similar to or comprise or include any of the Licensed Property.

Section 4.02. Quality Standards and Inspection.

All services performed under the Licensed Marks and all goods to which the Licensed Marks are applied shall at all times be in compliance with applicable Law, and such services performed or goods supplied shall in each case be effected in a manner so as not to bring discredit upon the Licensed Marks. Licensor shall have the right to inspect any designation, document or other media including any Promotional Material, and any facilities or records, used or maintained by Licensee in connection with the performance of any services or supply of goods under one or more of the Licensed Marks.

Section 4.03. Third Party Notices. In connection with the use of any Licensed ▇▇▇▇ that has been registered in the US Patent and Trademark Office, Licensee and its sublicensees shall ▇▇▇▇ each use with the registered trademark symbol, “^®,” or such other trademark notice symbol as designated by Licensor. If any such Licensed ▇▇▇▇ is used multiple times on or in a particular document, advertisement or other material, the symbol and notice need only be used in connection with the first prominent use of such Licensed ▇▇▇▇, as applicable, on or in such document, advertisement or other material. If requested in writing by Licensor, Licensee shall ensure that any material which includes a reference to any such Licensed ▇▇▇▇ contains a written statement to the effect that such Licensed ▇▇▇▇ is a registered trademark or service ▇▇▇▇, as the case may be, of

Licensor and is used by Licensee under license, or such other statement as Licensor may reasonably require from time to time.

Section 4.04. Right To Bring Action. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Licensor shall have the sole and exclusive right to take or bring any action, legal or otherwise, in connection with any infringement of the Licensed Property (it being understood that Licensor shall not be obligated to take or bring any such action).

Each payment by Licensee hereunder shall be made by electronic transfer in immediately available funds, at Licensor’s election, via either a bank wire transfer or any other means of electronic funds transfer to a bank account specified in writing by Licensor to Licensee. Licensor may change such account by written notice at least five (5) Business Days before any payment is due.

ARTICLE 6

INFRINGEMENT AND INDEMNIFICATION

Licensee shall promptly notify Licensor in writing of any allegations, claims or demands (actual or threatened) against Licensee or any of its Subsidiaries for infringement of any Intellectual Property rights of any third parties by reason of Licensee’s or any of its sublicensee’s use of the Licensed Marks and provide all particulars requested by Licensor. Licensee shall not enter into any settlement, admit any liability or consent to any adverse judgment that would adversely affect the rights or interest of Licensor in and to the Licensed Marks without the prior written consent of Licensor. Licensor shall have the right to employ separate counsel and participate in the defense of any such action at its own expense.

Section 6.03. Indemnification by Licensee. Licensee shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Licensor and each of Licensor’s Affiliates and their respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives (the “Licensor Indemnitees”) from and against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, demands, proceedings and costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) related to or arising out of the use of the Licensed Marks by Licensee or its sublicensees and the exercise of Licensee’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. If any Licensor Indemnitee shall have a claim for indemnity against Licensee under this Section 6.03, the procedures set forth in Sections 8.6 and 8.7 of the Purchase Agreement shall apply with respect to such claim.

ARTICLE 7

Exhibit C

SERVICES AGREEMENT

This Services Agreement (“Agreement”) is made as of December , 2012 (the “Effective Date”) by and between GEO Corrections and Detention, Inc., a Florida corporation (“GCD”), and GEO Care, Inc., a Florida corporation (“GEO Care”). GCD and GEO Care are referred to herein as a “party” and the “parties”.

WHEREAS, GEO Care desires to obtain from GCD and certain of its domestic and international affiliates certain services and assistance in GEO Care’s business and operations, and the use of certain office space, and GCD is willing to provide, and to cause certain of its affiliates to provide, such services and office space, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

Agreement

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual covenants contained herein, the parties agree as follows:

Services.

(a) GCD, directly or indirectly through its affiliates, agrees to provide the services (the “Services”) listed on Schedule A (subject to such modification or adjustment as may be mutually agreed upon by the parties, the “Services Schedule”) to GEO Care and its subsidiaries during the Term (as defined below). At any time during the Term, GEO Care may request in writing that GCD and its affiliates provide additional services to GEO Care and its subsidiaries beyond those set forth on the Services Schedule, and provided GCD determines, in its sole discretion, that it has the necessary resources, expertise, consents and approvals necessary to provide such services, the Annual Fee shall be increased to reflect the provision of such additional services by an amount to be mutually agreed between GEO Care, GCD and a disinterested committee of the Board of Directors of The GEO Group, Inc. (an “Independent Committee”), and GCD shall provide such additional services beginning as soon as practicable thereafter. The Services Schedule shall be adjusted to reflect the provision of such additional services. For the avoidance of doubt, no Service shall be removed from the Services Schedule unless both parties agree to such removal. Except as set forth above and in Section 2 below, GCD and its affiliates shall have no obligation under this Agreement to provide services to GEO Care or its subsidiaries, and neither GEO Care or its subsidiaries shall have any right to receive services from any employee of GCD or its affiliates (other than ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ (the “Shared Employees”)).

(b) GCD shall perform, or cause to be performed, the Services under this Agreement with the same level of care used by GCD or its affiliates in the conduct of their business.

(c) Absent the prior written consent of GEO Care, GCD shall not contract with a third party provider for the provision of any material portion of the Services unless GCD uses the same third party provider to provide services to itself or its affiliates.

(d) Each party agrees to reasonably cooperate in providing for an orderly delivery of Services on the terms set forth herein.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, GCD shall not be required to perform any services that would, in the sole discretion of GCD, constitute the operation or management of a health care facility for purposes of section 856(l)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

2. Office Space. During the Term, GCD shall make available for use by GEO Care up to 15,000 square feet of office space on the fifth floor of the office building located at One Park Place, ▇▇▇ ▇▇ ▇▇^▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ (the “Office Space”), or on such other floor or floors as shall be mutually agreed, in each case, to the extent permissible under the prime lease of the Office Space. If requested by GEO Care, GCD shall cause a written sublease agreement to be prepared for the sublease of the Office Space, which shall, to the extent permissible under the prime lease of the Office Space, provide GEO Care with all rights of use and access and other tenant rights currently enjoyed by the tenant under the prime lease.

Fees.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, in consideration of GCD’s performance of the Services and the use of the Office Space, GEO Care shall pay GCD an annual fee (as may be modified from time to time, the “Annual Fee”) initially equal to $1,800,000, payable in equal monthly installments on the first day of each calendar month during the Term, prorated for any partial month at the beginning or end of the Term. The Annual Fee shall be allocated among the Services and the use of the Office Space as set forth on the Services Schedule, as may be modified from time to time.

(b) The Annual Fee shall be increased in an amount to be mutually agreed, as provided below, effective as of the first day of the first month following the first period of three consecutive complete months during the Term during which the annualized revenues of GEO Care and its subsidiaries exceed $190 million during such three-month period, and shall be further increased in amounts to be mutually agreed each time the annualized total revenues of GEO Care and its subsidiaries during any period of three consecutive complete months during the Term exceed successive $20 million thresholds (e.g., $210 million, $230 million, and so forth). Should the annualized total revenues of GEO Care and its subsidiaries during any period of three consecutive complete months during the Term decrease below any of such threshold amounts, the Annual Fee shall be decreased by the same amount by which it was previously increased, provided that the Annual Fee shall never be less than $1,800,000. The amount by which the Annual Fee shall be increased under this Section 3(b) shall be determined by mutual agreement of GEO Care, GCD and the Independent Committee, taking into account the actual increases in GCD’s costs of providing Services to GEO Care at such higher revenue levels. Each time the Annual Fee is increased or decreased under this Section 3(b), the Services Schedule shall be amended accordingly.

(c) GEO Care shall bear all applicable sales or use, value added, goods and services, or similar taxes incurred with respect to the provision of the Services and shall pay all such taxes directly or by reimbursing GCD for such taxes. These taxes shall be incremental to the other payment obligations set forth herein.

4. Property Insurance. During the Term, GCD shall use reasonable efforts to arrange for the property insurance coverage provided as of the Effective Date under the insurance program of GCD and its affiliates with respect to the properties and facilities under the Key Contracts (as such term is defined in the Purchase Agreement, dated as of December 6, 2012, between GEO Care Holdings LLC and The GEO Group, Inc.) to be continued on substantially the same terms as in effect on the Effective Date, and for property insurance coverage to be made available to GEO Care and its affiliates for such additional facilities, and on such terms and conditions, as GEO Care may request relating to any new management contracts to be entered into by GEO Care or an affiliate, so as to enable GEO Care and its affiliates to comply with their obligations under the Key Contracts and any such new management contracts with respect to obtaining and maintaining property insurance for managed facilities, in each case at GCD’s cost, subject to reimbursement by GEO Care as provided below. To the extent practicable, GCD shall make such property insurance coverage available on the same terms and conditions generally applicable to other similar covered risks under the insurance program of GCD and its affiliates. GEO Care shall pay its allocated cost for such insurance coverage, promptly upon receipt from GCD of a corresponding invoice. Upon request by GEO Care, GCD shall take such actions as may be required to terminate any such insurance coverage effective as of the date specified by GEO Care in such request (which shall not be prior to the 30th day after such request was received, or the earliest day on which such insurance coverage may be terminated without penalty), and shall refund to GEO Care, or credit to insurance premium payments otherwise due from GEO Care, any refund GCD may receive with respect to such termination of coverage.

Term and Termination.

(a) The term of this Agreement (the “Term”) shall commence on the Effective Date and shall continue until this Agreement is terminated in accordance with the provisions of Section 5(b), Section 5(c) or Section 5(d).

(b) Either party may terminate this Agreement, effective on or after December 31, 2017 by providing at least 90 days’ prior written notice to the other party.

(c) If either party materially breaches any of its obligations under this Agreement and fails to cure such breach within 30 days after receiving written notice thereof specifying the nature of such material breach and the intent of the non-breaching party to terminate this Agreement if such breach is not cured, the non-breaching party may terminate this Agreement immediately by providing written notice of termination to the party in breach; provided that if the material breach relates to a dispute concerning good faith withholding of amounts claimed to be owed hereunder, the non-breaching party may not terminate this Agreement pending the resolution of such dispute. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if GEO Care fails to pay any undisputed amounts for Services provided hereunder when due, and GEO Care

fails to cure its failure to pay such undisputed amounts within 15 days after receipt of written notice thereof from GCD, GCD may terminate this Agreement, including the provision of Services pursuant hereto, immediately by providing written notice of termination to GEO Care. Further, this Agreement may be terminated, effective immediately upon written notice, by either party if the other party files, or has filed against it, a petition for voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy or pursuant to any other insolvency law or makes or seeks to make a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors or applies for or consents to the appointment of a trustee, receiver or custodian for it or a substantial part of its property.

(d) GEO Care may terminate this Agreement at any time by providing written notice to GCD specifying an effective date of termination that is not less than 30 days after the date of the notice and paying GCD, not later than the specified effective date of termination, a lump sum amount in cash equal to all remaining payments that would be required to be made to GCD for the balance of the initial five year term of this Agreement, at the Annual Fee rate in effect on the date notice of termination is given, discounted to present value as of the date of payment at the annual rate of 10%.

(e) If GCD terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 5(c), GEO Care shall nevertheless be obligated to continue to pay GCD the remaining installments of the Annual Fee, at the rate in effect as of the date of termination, for the balance of the initial five year period comprising the Term, at the scheduled time for such payments.

(f) This Agreement shall immediately become null and void after it is terminated in accordance with Section 5(b), Section 5(c) or Section 5(d) above; provided that each party shall remain fully liable for any and all liabilities, losses, costs or damages incurred or suffered by the other party as a result of any breach of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of Section 5(e), Section 7, Section 10, Section 11, Section 13 and Section 14 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

6. Audit Rights. Not more than once every fiscal year, GEO Care shall have the right to (and to cause its accountants, auditors, inspectors and regulators to), at its expense, review the books and records of GCD related to the provision of the Services at any time during regular business hours and upon reasonable prior notice to (a) confirm that the Services have in fact been provided by GCD, (b) verify the integrity of data owned by GEO Care, (c) examine the systems that process, store, support and transmit such data, (d) confirm the accuracy of GCD’s estimate of the Cost of Services or its determination of the actual Cost of Services, and (e) for any other purpose reasonably required for GEO Care’s compliance with its legal and contractual obligations; provided that GEO Care shall have the rights to review the books and records of GCD more than once every fiscal year to the extent that such review is undertaken in connection with a Dispute and for the purpose set forth in clause (d) only. GEO shall cooperate fully with GEO Care or its designees in connection with audit functions and with regard to examination by governmental authorities.

7. No Agency. GCD shall perform the Services under this Agreement as an independent contractor. Each party acknowledges and agrees that it is not granted any express or implied authority to assume or create any obligation or responsibility on behalf of the other party, or to bind the other party with regard to third parties in any manner.

8. Notices. Any and all notices required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be in writing, and shall be delivered personally, by facsimile transmission, receipt confirmed, by United States mail, registered or certified, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, or by a reputable courier or overnight delivery service with tracking capabilities, in each case addressed to the recipient party at its address or facsimile number set forth below, or such other address or facsimile number as a party may provide by notice to the other given in accordance with this paragraph. Notice given by personal delivery shall be deemed given and effective upon receipt. Notice given by U.S. mail or courier shall be deemed given and effective on the date of delivery as shown on the return receipt.

(a) Duty of Confidentiality. All non-public information regarding a party or its business or assets that is identified as confidential or proprietary or that would reasonably be considered confidential or proprietary (“Confidential Information”) that a party, or its affiliates or representatives (the “Disclosing Party”) discloses to the other party, or its affiliates or representatives (the “Receiving Party”) for any purpose incidental to this Agreement or that is otherwise accessible to the Receiving Party in the course of performing, or receiving performance of, Services under this Agreement, shall be kept confidential by the Receiving Party, using at least the same degree of care that it uses to protect its own confidential or proprietary information, but not less than reasonable care, and shall not be disclosed or used by the Receiving Party other than for the purpose of performing its obligations under this Agreement.

(b) Exclusions. Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party shall not include information that: (a) is already in the public domain at the time of disclosure, or thereafter becomes publicly known other than as the result of a breach by the Receiving Party of its obligations under this Agreement; or (b) is received from a third party without breach of this Agreement and without knowledge that such third party is breaching an obligation of confidentiality owed to the Disclosing Party.

(c) Required Disclosures. If any Confidential Information must be produced by the Receiving Party as a matter of law, regulation, legal process or the rules of any national stock exchange, then the Receiving Party shall, insofar as is legally permissible and reasonably practicable, promptly notify the Disclosing Party and give the Disclosing Party an opportunity to appear and to object to such production before producing the requested information.

(d) Return of Confidential Information. Upon the termination of this Agreement, each party, as a Receiving Party, shall, at the option of the other party, as a Disclosing Party, return to such Disclosing Party all Confidential Information of such Disclosing Party or destroy such Confidential Information and provide a written certification of destruction with respect thereto to such Disclosing Party; provided that the Receiving Party may maintain a copy of the Confidential Information to the extent required by law or document retention policy, and the Receiving Party shall not be required to destroy any computer records containing Confidential Information which have been created pursuant to automatic archiving and back-up procedures which cannot be reasonably deleted.

Care or its affiliates or any other person for or in connection with the Services rendered hereunder, except to the extent that any damages have resulted from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Exculpated Party in connection with the provision of the Services.

13. Collection Rights and Remedies. GCD’s rights to receive payment or recover all or part of uncollected and unpaid balances due and owing under this Agreement shall be unsecured and pari passu with the claims of GEO Care’s general unsecured creditors, and shall be subordinate to all rights of GEO Care’s secured creditors, including security interests in GEO Care’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and other current assets.

14. Miscellaneous.

(e) No failure or delay on the part of any party hereto in the exercise of any right or remedy hereunder shall impair such right or remedy or be construed as a waiver of, or acquiescence in, any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement herein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or remedy preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right.

(f) If any term, provision, covenant or restriction contained in this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void, unenforceable or against its regulatory policy, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions contained in this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, and this Agreement shall be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable term, provision, covenant or restriction or any portion thereof had never been contained herein.

THIS SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED SENIOR OFFICER EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into effective the day of December, 2012 by and between The GEO Group, Inc. (the “Company”) and ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ (the “Employee” and, together with the Company, the “Parties”).

WHEREAS, the Employee and the Company have previously entered into an Amended and Restated Senior Officer Employment Agreement, effective December 17th, 2008, which was amended by the First Amendment to Amended And Restated Senior Officer Employment Agreement entered into effective the 1^st day of March, 2011 (the “Prior Employment Agreement”), which set forth the Parties’ rights and obligations with respect to the Employee’s employment with the Company; and

WHEREAS, the Employee and the Company wish to amend and restate the Prior Employment Agreement; and

WHEREAS, the terms of this Agreement have been reviewed and approved by the members of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”).

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, and for other valuable consideration the receipt and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereby agree as follows:

1. Position and Duties. The Company hereby agrees to continue to employ the Employee and the Employee hereby accepts continued employment and agrees to continue to serve as Senior Vice President, The GEO Group, Inc. The Employee will perform all duties and responsibilities and will have all authority inherent in the position of Senior Vice President, The GEO Group, Inc. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, it is understood that the Employee may own interest in and/or perform services related to the management and operations of GEO Care, Inc., a Florida corporation, and its affiliates (collectively, “GEO Care”), including services as the President of GEO Care (collectively the ownership of an interest in GEO Care and services by the Employee for GEO Care and its affiliates referenced in this Section 1, shall be referred to as the “GEO Care Activities”) and engaging in such GEO Care activities shall not cause a breach or a violation of this Agreement, unless otherwise explicitly provided for in this Agreement.

2. Term of Agreement and Employment. The term of the Employee’s employment under this Agreement will be for an initial period of two (2) years, beginning on the effective date of this Agreement, and terminating two years thereafter. The term of employment under this Agreement will be automatically extended by one day every day such that it has a continuous “rolling” two-year term until the age of 67 years, unless otherwise terminated pursuant to Section 6 or 7 of this Agreement.

3. Definition - Cause. For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” for the termination of the Employee’s employment hereunder shall be deemed to exist if, in the reasonable judgment

of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (CEO), following consultation with and approval of a disinterested committee of the Board: (i) the Employee commits fraud, theft or embezzlement against the Company or any subsidiary or affiliate thereof; (ii) the Employee commits a felony or a crime involving moral turpitude; (iii) the Employee breaches any non-competition, confidentiality or non-solicitation agreement with the Company or any subsidiary or affiliate thereof; (iv) the Employee breaches any of the terms of this Agreement and fails to cure such breach within 30 days after the receipt of written notice of such breach from the Company; or (v) the Employee engages in gross negligence or willful misconduct that causes harm to the business and operations of the Company or a subsidiary or affiliate thereof. For avoidance of doubt it is understood that engaging in GEO Care Activities to the extent permitted under Section 1 of this Agreement shall not be deemed Cause or a component of Cause for purposes of this Agreement.

4. Compensation.

Annual Base Salary. The Employee shall be paid an annual base salary of $335,000 (as such may be amended from time to time, the “Annual Base Salary”). The Company may increase the Annual Base Salary paid to the Employee in an amount to be determined by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, following consultation with and approval of a disinterested committee of the Board. The Annual Base Salary shall be payable at such regular times and intervals as the Company customarily pays its employees from time to time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time the Employees employment with GEO Care is terminated for any reason, his Annual Base Salary hereunder shall be increased by 49.26%.

Annual Performance Award. For each fiscal year of employment during which the Company employs the Employee, the Employee shall be entitled to receive a target annual performance award in accordance with the terms of any plan governing employee performance awards then in effect as established by the Board (the “Annual Performance Award”).

5. Employee Benefits. The Employee will be entitled to twenty-one (21) paid-time-off (PTO) days of vacation per fiscal year during his/her first ten (10) years of service, and twenty-six (26) paid-time-off (PTO) days of vacation per fiscal year thereafter. The Employee, the Employee’s spouse, and qualifying members of the Employee’s family will be eligible for and will participate in any benefits and perquisites available to other senior vice presidents of the Company, including any group health, dental, life insurance, disability, or other form of employee benefit plan or program of the Company now existing or that may be later adopted by the Company (collectively, the “Employee Benefits”).

6. Death or Disability. The Employee’s employment will terminate immediately upon the Employee’s death. If the Employee becomes physically or mentally disabled so as to become unable for a period of more than five consecutive months or for shorter periods aggregating at least five months during any twelve-month period to perform the Employee’s duties hereunder on a substantially full-time basis, the Employee’s employment will terminate as of the end of such five-month or twelve-month period and this shall be considered a “disability” under

this Agreement. Such termination shall not affect the Employee’s benefits under the Company’s disability insurance program, if any, then in effect.

7. Termination. Either the Employee or the Company may terminate this Agreement for any reason upon not less than thirty (30) days written notice.

Termination of Employment Without Cause or Upon the Death or Disability of the Employee. Upon the termination of the Employee’s employment under this Agreement by the Company without Cause or the death or disability of the Employee, the following shall apply:

(i)

Termination Payment. The Employee shall be entitled to and paid a termination payment (the “Termination Payment”) equal to two (2) years’ Annual Base Salary as set forth in Section 4 based upon the then current salary level. The Termination Payment shall be made within 10 days of any termination pursuant to this Section 7(A).

(ii)

Termination Benefits. The Company shall continue to provide the Employee and any covered dependents of the Employee (and if applicable, his beneficiaries) with the Employee Benefits (as described in Section 5 hereof) for a period of 2 years after the date of termination of the Employee’s employment with the Company. Such Employee Benefits shall be provided at no cost to the Employee in no less than the same amount, and on the same terms and conditions, as in effect on the date on which the termination of employment occurs. If the Employee dies during the 2-year period following a termination pursuant to this Section 7(A), the Company shall continue to provide the Employee Benefits to the Employee’s covered dependents under the same terms as were being provided prior to the Employee’s death and, to the extent applicable, to the Employee’s estate.

(iii)

Termination Automobile. Within 10 days following termination, the Company shall transfer all of its interest in any automobile used by the Employee pursuant to the Company’s Employee Automobile Policy (the “Employee Automobile Policy”) and shall pay the balance of any outstanding loans or leases on such automobile (whether such obligations are those of the Employee or the Company) so that the Employee owns the automobile outright (in the event such automobile is leased, the Company shall pay the residual cost of such lease).

(iv)

Termination Stock Options and Restricted Stock. All of the outstanding unvested stock options and restricted stock granted to the Employee prior to termination will fully vest immediately upon termination, provided however, that any restricted stock that is still subject to performance based vesting at the time of such termination

shall only vest when and to the extent the Compensation Committee of the Board certifies that the performance goals are actually met.

Termination of Employment by Resignation of Employee or by the Company With Cause. Upon the termination of the Employee’s employment by the voluntary resignation of the Employee or by the Company with Cause, the Employee shall be due no further compensation under this Agreement related to Annual Base Salary, Annual Performance Award, Employee Benefits, or Termination Payment other than what is due and owing through the effective date of the Employee’s resignation or termination.

Retirement Plan Rights Unaffected. Termination of the Employee’s employment under this Agreement for any reason whatsoever shall not affect the Employee’s rights under the Company’s retirement plan applicable to the Employee.

8.	Restrictive Covenants.

General. The Company and the Employee hereby acknowledge and agree that (i) the Employee is in possession of trade secrets (as defined in Section 688.002(4) of the Florida Statutes) of the Company (the “Trade Secrets”), (ii) the restrictive covenants contained in this Section 8 are justified by legitimate business interests of the Company, including, but not limited to, the protection of the Trade Secrets, in accordance with Section 542.335(1)(e) of the Florida Statutes, and (iii) the restrictive covenants contained in this Section 8 are reasonably necessary to protect such legitimate business interests of the Company.

Non-Competition.

that is so publicly traded. During the period of the Employee’s employment and until two (2) years after the termination of the Employee’s employment, the Employee will not, directly or indirectly, on the Employee’s own behalf or as a partner, shareholder, officer, employee, director, trustee, agent, consultant or member of any person, firm or corporation or otherwise, seek to employ or otherwise seek the services of any employee of the Company or any of its affiliates or majority-owned subsidiaries.

The Employee will cooperate fully in the establishment and maintenance of all rights of the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates in such Work Product. The provisions of this Section 8(D) will survive termination of this Agreement indefinitely to the extent necessary to require actions to be taken by the Employee after the termination of the Agreement with respect to Work Product created during the term of this Agreement.

The Employee hereby represents and warrants to the Company that (i) the execution, delivery and full performance of this Agreement by the Employee does not and will not conflict with, breach, violate or cause a default under any agreement, contract or instrument to which the Employee is a party or any judgment, order or decree to which the Employee is subject; (ii) the Employee is not a party or bound by any employment agreement, consulting agreement, agreement not to compete, confidentiality agreement or similar agreement with any other person or entity, other than any agreements in connection with GEO Care Activities; and (iii) upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Employee and the Company, this Agreement will be the Employee’s valid and binding obligation, enforceable in accordance with its terms.

Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, any such arbitration will take place in West Palm Beach, Florida and will be conducted in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association.

This Agreement may be amended, modified or changed only by further written agreement between the Company and the Employee, duly executed by both Parties.

14. Severability; Survival. In the event that any provision of this Agreement is found to be void and unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then such unenforceable provision shall be deemed modified so as to be enforceable (or if not subject to modification then eliminated herefrom) to the extent necessary to permit the remaining provisions to be enforced in accordance with the Parties’ intention. The provisions of Section 8 (and the restrictive covenants contained therein) shall survive the termination for any reason of this Agreement and/or the Employee’s relationship with the Company.

SECTION 409A COMPLIANCE.

GENERAL. It is the intention of both the Company and the Employee that the benefits and rights to which the Employee is entitled pursuant to this Agreement comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), to the extent that the requirements of Code Section 409A are applicable thereto, and the provisions of this Agreement shall be construed in a manner

consistent with that intention. If the Employee or the Company believes, at any time, that any such benefit or right that is subject to Code Section 409A does not so comply, it shall promptly advise the other and shall negotiate reasonably and in good faith to amend the terms of such benefits and rights such that they comply with Code Section 409A (with the most limited possible economic effect on the Employee and on the Company).

DISTRIBUTIONS ON ACCOUNT OF SEPARATION FROM SERVICE. To the extent required to comply with Code Section 409A, any payment or benefit required to be paid under this Agreement on account of termination of the Employee’s service (or any other similar term) shall be made only in connection with a “separation from service” with respect to the Employee within the meaning of Code Section 409A.

NO ACCELERATION OF PAYMENTS. Neither the Company nor the Employee, individually or in combination, may accelerate any payment or benefit that is subject to Code Section 409A, except in compliance with Code Section 409A and the provisions of this Agreement, and no amount that is subject to Code Section 409A shall be paid prior to the earliest date on which it may be paid without violating Code Section 409A.

SIX MONTH DELAY FOR SPECIFIED EMPLOYEES. In the event that the Employee is a “specified employee” (as described in Code Section 409A), and any payment or benefit payable pursuant to this Agreement constitutes deferred compensation under Code Section 409A, then the Company and the Employee shall cooperate in good faith to undertake any actions that would cause such payment or benefit not to constitute deferred compensation under Code Section 409A. In the event that, following such efforts, the Company determines (after consultation with its counsel) that such payment or benefit is still subject to the six-month delay requirement described in Code Section 409A(2)(b) in order for such payment or benefit to comply with the requirements of Code Section 409A, then no such payment or benefit shall be made before the date that is six months after the Employee’s “separation from service” (as described in Code Section 409A) (or, if earlier, the date of the Employee’s death). Any payment or benefit delayed by reason of the prior sentence shall be paid out or provided in a single lump sum at the end of such required delay period in order to catch up to the original payment schedule.

TREATMENT OF EACH INSTALLMENT AS A SEPARATE PAYMENT. For purposes of applying the provisions of Code Section 409A to this Agreement, each separately identified amount to which the Employee is entitled under this Agreement shall be treated as a separate payment. In addition, to the extent permissible under Code Section 409A, any series of installment payments under this Agreement shall be treated as a right to a series of separate payments.

REIMBURSEMENTS AND IN-KIND BENEFITS. With respect to reimbursements and in-kind benefits that may be provided under the Agreement

(the “Reimbursement Plans”), to the extent any benefits provided under the Reimbursement Plans are subject to Section 409A, the Reimbursement Plans shall meet the following requirements:

(i) Reimbursement Plans shall use an objectively determinable, nondiscretionary definition of the expenses eligible for reimbursement or of the in-kind benefits to be provided;

(ii) Reimbursement Plans shall provide that the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits provided, during the Employee’s taxable year may not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other taxable year, provided, however, that Reimbursement Plans providing for reimbursement of expenses referred to in Code Section 105(b) shall not fail to meet the requirement of this Section 18(F)(ii) solely because such Reimbursement Plans provide for a limit on the amount of expenses that may be reimbursed under such arrangements over some or all of the period in which Reimbursement Plans remain in effect;

(iii) The reimbursement of an eligible expense is made on or before the last day of the Employee’s taxable year following the taxable year in which the expense was incurred; and

(iv) The right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits under the Reimbursement Plans shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

EMPLOYEE BENEFITS. With respect to any Employee Benefits that do not comply with (or are not exempt from) Code Section 409A, to the extent applicable, the Employee shall be deemed to receive from the Company a monthly payment necessary for the Employee to purchase the benefit in question.

Exhibit D-3

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

This EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into effective as of the day of December, 2012 (the “Effective Date”), by and between GEO Care LLC, a Florida limited liability company (the “Company”) and ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ (the “Executive” and, together with the Company, the “Parties”).

WHEREAS, the Company desires for the Executive to be employed as the President of the Company, and Executive desires to accept employment, subject to and on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement;

1. Position and Duties. The Company hereby employs the Executive and the Executive hereby accepts employment and agrees to serve as the President of the Company, reporting to the Board of Directors or other governing body of the Company (the “Board”). The Executive will devote up to one-third of his full business time and attention to the performance of services under this Agreement, and shall perform the duties and responsibilities and have all authority associated with his position. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, it is understood that the Executive may own an interest in and perform services for The GEO Group, Inc., a Florida corporation and its affiliates (collectively “GEO”), in his present position of Senior Vice President of GEO or in any other capacity or position. The ownership of an interest in GEO and the performance of services by the Executive for GEO and its affiliates referenced in this Section 1 shall be referred to in this Agreement as the “GEO Activities”. The Executive’s engaging in the GEO Activities shall not constitute a breach or violation of this Agreement, unless otherwise explicitly provided for in this Agreement.

2. Term of Employment. The term of the Executive’s employment under this Agreement will be for an initial period of two years, beginning on the Effective Date and terminating two years thereafter. The term of employment under this Agreement will be automatically extended by one day every day such that it has a continuous “rolling” two-year term until Executive reaches the age of 67 years, unless otherwise terminated pursuant to Section 6 or 7 of this Agreement.

3. Cause. For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” for the termination of the Executive’s employment hereunder shall be deemed to exist if, in the reasonable judgment of the Board or other governing body (the “Board”): (i) the Executive commits fraud, theft or embezzlement against the Company or any subsidiary or affiliate thereof; (ii) the Executive commits a felony or a crime involving moral turpitude; (iii) the Executive breaches any non-competition, confidentiality or non-solicitation agreement with the Company or any subsidiary or affiliate thereof; (iv) the Executive breaches any of the terms of this Agreement and fails to cure such breach within 30 days after the receipt of written notice of such breach from the Company; or (v) the Executive engages in gross negligence or willful misconduct that causes harm to the business and operations of the Company or a subsidiary or affiliate thereof. For avoidance of

doubt it is understood that engaging in GEO Activities shall not be deemed to be Cause or a component of Cause for purposes of this Agreement.

4. Compensation.

Annual Base Salary. The Executive shall be paid an annual base salary of $165,000 (as such may be amended from time to time, the “Annual Base Salary”). The Company may increase the Annual Base Salary as determined by the Board. The Annual Base Salary shall be payable in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices from time to time.

Annual Performance Award. For each of the Company’s fiscal years during which the Executive is employed by the Company, the Executive shall be entitled to receive a target annual performance award in accordance with the terms of any plan governing employee performance awards then in effect as established by the Board (the “Annual Performance Award”).

5. Employee Benefits. The Executive will be entitled to 21 paid-time-off (PTO) days of vacation per fiscal year during his first ten years of service, and 26 paid-time-off (PTO) days of vacation per fiscal year thereafter. The Executive shall be entitled to participate in employee benefits plans and arrangements provided to the Company’s similarly situated employees, in accordance with the terms (including eligibility requirements) of such plans and arrangements (collectively, the “Employee Benefits”). For purposes of all such plans and arrangements, including accrual of vacation days, the Executive’s service shall be deemed to have commenced on the same date as his commencement of employment with GEO.

6. Death or Disability. The Executive’s employment will terminate immediately upon the Executive’s death. If the Executive becomes physically or mentally disabled so as to become unable for a period of more than five consecutive months or for shorter periods aggregating at least five months during any twelve-month period to perform the Executive’s duties hereunder on a substantially full-time basis, the Executive’s employment will terminate as of the end of such five-month or twelve-month period and this shall be considered a “disability” under this Agreement. Such termination shall not affect the Executive’s benefits under the Company’s disability insurance program, if any, then in effect.

7. Termination. Either the Executive or the Company may terminate the Executive’s employment under this Agreement for any reason upon not less than 30 days written notice.

Termination of Employment Without Cause or Upon the Death or Disability of the Executive. Upon the termination of the Executive’s employment under this Agreement by the Company without Cause or by reason of the death or disability of the Executive, the following shall apply:

(i)

Termination Payment. The Executive shall be paid a termination payment (the “Termination Payment”) equal to two times his then current Annual Base Salary. The Termination Payment shall be made within ten days of any termination pursuant to this Section 7(A).

(ii)

Termination Benefits. The Company shall continue to provide the Executive and any covered dependents of the Executive (and if applicable, his beneficiaries) with the Employee Benefits for a period of two years after the date of termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company. Such Employee Benefits shall be provided at no cost to the Executive in no less than the same amount, and on the same terms and conditions, as in effect on the date on which the termination of employment occurs. If the Executive dies during the two year period following a termination pursuant to this Section 7(A), the Company shall continue to provide the Employee Benefits to the Executive’s covered dependents under the same terms as were being provided prior to the Executive’s death and, to the extent applicable, to the Executive’s estate.

(iii)

Vesting of Stock-Based Compensation Awards. All outstanding unvested stock options, restricted stock and other stock-based compensation awards, if any, granted to the Executive prior to termination will fully vest immediately upon termination, provided however, that any award or portion thereof that is still subject to performance-based vesting at the time of such termination shall only vest when and to the extent the Board determines that the performance goals are actually met.

Termination of Employment by Resignation of Executive or by the Company With Cause. Upon the termination of the Executive’s employment by the voluntary resignation of the Executive or by the Company with Cause, the Executive shall be due no further compensation under this Agreement related to Annual Base Salary, Annual Performance Award, Employee Benefits, or Termination Payment other than what is due and owing through the effective date of the Executive’s resignation or termination.

8.	Restrictive Covenants.

General. The Company and the Executive hereby acknowledge and agree that (i) the Executive is in possession of trade secrets (as defined in Section 688.002(4) of the Florida Statutes) of the Company (the “Trade Secrets”), (ii) the restrictive covenants contained in this Section 8 are justified by legitimate business interests of the Company, including, but not limited to, the protection of the Trade Secrets, in accordance with

Section 542.335(1)(e) of the Florida Statutes, and (iii) the restrictive covenants contained in this Section 8 are reasonably necessary to protect such legitimate business interests of the Company.

Non-Competition; Non-Solicitation. During the period of the Executive’s employment with the Company and until two years after the termination thereof, the Executive will not, directly or indirectly, either (i) on the Executive’s own behalf or as a partner, officer, director, trustee, employee, agent, consultant or member of any person, firm or corporation, or otherwise, enter into the employ of, render any service to, or engage in any business or activity which is the same as or competitive with any business or activity conducted by the Company or any of its subsidiaries or (ii) become an officer, employee or consultant of, or otherwise assume a substantial role or relationship with, any governmental entity, agency or political subdivision that is a client or customer of the Company or any of its subsidiaries; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not be deemed to restrict or prevent the Executive from engaging in GEO Activities or investing in securities of any company having a class of securities which is publicly traded, so long as through such investment holdings in the aggregate, the Executive is not deemed to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the class of securities that is so publicly traded. During the period of the Executive’s employment and until two years after the termination thereof, the Executive will not, directly or indirectly, on the Executive’s own behalf or as a partner, shareholder, officer, employee, director, trustee, agent, consultant or member of any person, firm or corporation or otherwise, seek to employ or otherwise engage the services of any employee of the Company or any of its affiliates or majority-owned subsidiaries.

Confidentiality. During and following the period of the Executive’s employment with the Company, the Executive will not use for the Executive’s own benefit or for the benefit of others, or divulge to others, any information, Trade Secrets, knowledge or data of a secret or confidential nature and otherwise not available to members of the general public that concerns the business or affairs of the Company or its subsidiaries and which was acquired by the Executive at any time prior to or during the term of the Executive’s employment with the Company (collectively the “Data”), except with the specific prior written consent of the Company; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply to any Data acquired by the Executive in the course of engaging in GEO Activities.

Work Product. The Executive agrees that all programs, inventions, innovations, improvements, developments, methods, designs, analyses, reports and all similar or related information which relate to the business of the Company and its subsidiaries, actual or anticipated, or to any actual or anticipated research and development conducted in connection with the

business of the Company and its subsidiaries, and all existing or future products or services, that are reasonably related to the business of the Company and its subsidiaries, which are conceived, developed or made by the Executive (alone or with others) during the term of this Agreement (“Work Product”) belong to the Company. The Executive will cooperate fully in the establishment and maintenance of all rights of the Company and its subsidiaries in such Work Product. The provisions of this Section 8(D) will survive termination of this Agreement indefinitely to the extent necessary to require actions to be taken by the Executive after the termination of the Agreement with respect to Work Product created during the term of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, this Section 8(D) shall not apply to any Work Product conceived, developed or made by the Executive (alone or with others) in the course of engaging in GEO Activities.

Enforcement. The Parties agree and acknowledge that the restrictions contained in this Section 8 are reasonable in scope and duration and are necessary to protect the Company and its subsidiaries. If any covenant or agreement contained in this Section 8 is found by a court having jurisdiction to be unreasonable in duration, geographical scope or character of restriction, the covenant or agreement will not be rendered unenforceable thereby but rather the duration, geographical scope or character of restriction of such covenant or agreement will be reduced or modified with retroactive effect to the extent necessary to render such covenant or agreement enforceable, and such covenant or agreement will be enforced as so modified. The Executive agrees and acknowledges that the breach by him of this Section 8 will cause irreparable injury to the Company or any of its subsidiaries and upon any such breach, the Company or any of its subsidiaries shall be entitled to injunctive relief, specific performance or other equitable relief, without being required to post a bond and without in any way limiting any other remedies which the Company or any of its subsidiaries may have (including, without limitation, the right to seek monetary damages).

9. Representations. The Executive hereby represents and warrants to the Company that (i) the execution, delivery and full performance of this Agreement by the Executive does not and will not conflict with, breach, violate or cause a default under any agreement, contract or instrument to which the Executive is a party or any judgment, order or decree to which the Executive is subject; (ii) the Executive is not a party or bound by any employment, consulting, noncompetition, confidentiality or similar agreement with any other person or entity, other than any agreements in connection with GEO Activities; and (iii) upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Executive and the Company, this Agreement will be the Executive’s valid and binding obligation, enforceable in accordance with its terms.

10. Arbitration. In the event of any dispute between the Company and the Executive with respect to this Agreement, either party may, in its sole discretion by notice to the other, require such dispute to be submitted to arbitration. The arbitrator will be selected by agreement

of the Parties or, if they cannot agree on an arbitrator or arbitrators within 30 days after the giving of such notice, the arbitrator will be selected by the American Arbitration Association. The decision reached in such arbitration will be final and binding on both Parties without any right of appeal and may be enforced in any court having jurisdiction. Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, any such arbitration will take place in West Palm Beach, Florida and will be conducted in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association. If the Executive is the prevailing party in any such arbitration, he will be entitled to reimbursement by the Company of all reasonable costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees incurred in such arbitration).

11. Assignment. The Executive may not assign, transfer, convey, mortgage, hypothecate, pledge or in any way encumber the compensation or other benefits payable to the Executive or any rights which the Executive may have under this Agreement. Neither the Executive nor the Executive’s beneficiary or beneficiaries will have any right to receive any compensation or other benefits under this Agreement, except at the time, in the amounts and in the manner provided in this Agreement. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and will be binding upon any successor to the Company, and any successor to the Company shall be authorized to enforce the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including the terms and conditions of the restrictive covenants contained in Section 8 hereof. As used in this Agreement, the term “successor” means any person, firm, corporation or other business entity which at any time, whether by merger, purchase or otherwise, acquires all or substantially all of the capital stock or assets of the Company. This Agreement may not otherwise be assigned by the Company.

12. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida without regard to any law that might otherwise be applicable under principles of conflicts of laws.

13. Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the only agreement between the Company and the Executive regarding the Executive’s employment by the Company. This Agreement supersedes any and all other agreements and understandings, written or oral, between the Company and the Executive regarding the subject matter hereof and thereof. A waiver by either party of any provision of this Agreement or any breach of such provision in an instance will not be deemed or construed to be a waiver of such provision for the future, or of any subsequent breach of such provision. This Agreement may be amended, modified or changed only by further written agreement between the Company and the Executive, duly executed by both Parties.

15. Notices. All notices required or permitted to be given hereunder will be in writing and will be deemed to have been given when deposited in United States mail, certified or registered mail, postage prepaid.

Either party may change the address to which notices are to be addressed by notice in writing to the other party given in accordance with the terms of this Section.

16. Headings. Section headings are for convenience of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement or any of its terms and conditions.

17. Section 409A Compliance.

General. It is the intention of both the Company and the Executive that the benefits and rights to which the Executive is entitled pursuant to this Agreement comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), to the extent that the requirements of Code Section 409A are applicable thereto, and the provisions of this Agreement shall be construed in a manner consistent with that intention. If the Executive or the Company believes, at any time, that any such benefit or right that is subject to Code Section 409A does not so comply, it shall promptly advise the other and shall negotiate reasonably and in good faith to amend the terms of such benefits and rights such that they comply with Code Section 409A (with the most limited possible economic effect on the Executive and on the Company).

Distributions on Account of Separation from Service. To the extent required to comply with Code Section 409A, any payment or benefit required to be paid under this Agreement on account of termination of the Executive’s service (or any other similar term) shall be made only in connection with a “separation from service” with respect to the Executive within the meaning of Code Section 409A.

No Acceleration of Payments. Neither the Company nor the Executive, individually or in combination, may accelerate any payment or benefit that is subject to Code Section 409A, except in compliance with Code Section 409A and the provisions of this Agreement, and no amount that is subject to Code Section 409A shall be paid prior to the earliest date on which it may be paid without violating Code Section 409A.

Treatment of Each Installment as a Separate Payment. For purposes of applying the provisions of Code Section 409A to this Agreement, each separately identified amount to which the Executive is entitled under this Agreement shall be treated as a separate payment. In addition, to the extent permissible under Code Section 409A, any series of installment

payments under this Agreement shall be treated as a right to a series of separate payments.

Reimbursements and In-Kind Benefits. With respect to reimbursements and in-kind benefits that may be provided under the Agreement (the “Reimbursement Plans”), to the extent any benefits provided under the Reimbursement Plans are subject to Section 409A, the Reimbursement Plans shall meet the following requirements:

(i)

Reimbursement Plans shall use an objectively determinable, nondiscretionary definition of the expenses eligible for reimbursement or of the in-kind benefits to be provided;

(ii)

Reimbursement Plans shall provide that the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits provided, during the Executive’s taxable year may not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other taxable year, provided, however, that Reimbursement Plans providing for reimbursement of expenses referred to in Code Section 105(b) shall not fail to meet the requirement of this Section 17(E)(ii) solely because such Reimbursement Plans provide for a limit on the amount of expenses that may be reimbursed under such arrangements over some or all of the period in which Reimbursement Plans remain in effect;

(iii)

The reimbursement of an eligible expense is made on or before the last day of the Executive’s taxable year following the taxable year in which the expense was incurred; and

(iv)

The right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits under the Reimbursement Plans shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

Employee Benefits. With respect to any Employee Benefits that do not comply with (or are not exempt from) Code Section 409A, to the extent applicable, the Executive shall be deemed to receive from the Company a monthly payment necessary for the Executive to purchase the benefit in question.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties hereto have executed and delivered this Agreement under seal as of the date first above written.
