4. CONSIDERATION; PAYMENT.

4.1. Purchase Price. The aggregate purchase price for the Purchased Assets shall be (i) $5,200,000, subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 4.4 below (the “Purchase Price”), and (ii) the assumption of the Assumed Liabilities.

4.2. Payment of the Purchase Price. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, on the Closing Date, Buyer shall:

(a) deliver an amount equal to $4,700,000 by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by Seller to Buyer no later than two (2) business days prior to the Closing Date; and

(b) deliver an amount equal to $500,000 (the “Escrow Amount”) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by the Escrow Agent to be held and distributed in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement to satisfy (i) any adjustments to the Purchase Price in favor of Buyer pursuant to Section 4.4, and (ii) any claims made by Buyer or any other Buyer Indemnity against Seller pursuant to Article 11.

4.3. Allocation of Purchase Price. In accordance with Section 1060 of the Code, the parties agree that the allocation of the Purchase Price among the Purchased Assets subsequent to the Closing shall be determined by mutual agreement of the parties. Seller and Buyer agree that the allocation may be amended or modified by mutual written agreement prior to the filing of the applicable tax returns of Buyer or Seller. Seller and Buyer shall use such allocation in all relevant tax returns.

4.4. Post-Closing Adjustment.

(a) On or before May 31, 2014, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Seller a statement setting forth its calculation of Closing Working Capital (the “Closing Working Capital Statement”). The Closing Working Capital Statement prepared by Buyer shall be consistent with the Working Capital Methodology, except with respect to accounts receivables, which shall be determined and calculated in accordance with the principles set forth in this Section. With respect to Inventory, the Buyer shall conduct an actual physical inventory of the Inventory as of the Closing Date in accordance with the physical inventory observation practices and procedures set forth on Schedule 4.4 (the “Physical Inventory”), which shall be used in the Closing Working Capital Statement. Seller may observe such Physical Inventory. With respect to accounts receivables, on and as of May 31, 2014, the Buyer, with the assistance of Seller, shall determine the amount collected on the Acquired Receivables, and the actual amount collected under the Acquired Receivables shall be used for purposes of determining the value of the Accounts Receivable on the Closing Working Capital Statement. Any Acquired Receivable that has not been paid in full as of the date of the Closing Working Capital Statement shall be reconveyed to Seller on a non-recourse basis. Thereafter, collection of such unpaid Acquired Receivable shall be the responsibility of Seller, with all such proceeds going to Seller. The parties agree that the purpose of determining Closing Working Capital and the related purchase price adjustment contemplated by this Section 4.4 is to measure changes in working capital, and such processes are not intended to permit the introduction of judgments, accounting methods, policies, principles, practices, procedures, classifications or estimation methodologies different from those set forth in the Working Capital Methodology for the purpose of preparing the Closing Working Capital Statement or determining Closing Working Capital.

(b) The “Post-Closing Adjustment” shall be an amount equal to the Closing Working Capital minus $761,000, which represents Seller’s and Buyer’s good faith estimate of the Closing Working Capital. If the Post-Closing Adjustment is a positive number, Buyer shall pay to Seller an amount equal to the Post-Closing Adjustment, and if the Post-Closing Adjustment is a negative number, Seller shall pay to Buyer an amount equal to the Post-Closing Adjustment. All payments required to be made under this subsection shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by the recipient of such payment. In the event Seller is paying the Post-Closing Adjustment to Buyer, such payment shall be payable first from the Escrow Amount.

(i) Examination. After receipt of the Closing Working Capital Statement, Seller shall have sixty (60) days (the “Review Period”) to review the Closing Working Capital Statement. During the Review Period, Seller and Seller's accountants shall have full access to the relevant books and records of Buyer, the personnel of, and work papers prepared by, Buyer and/or Buyer's accountants to the extent that they relate to the Closing Working Capital Statement and to such historical financial information (to the extent in Buyer's possession) relating to the Closing Working Capital Statement as Seller may reasonably request for the purpose of reviewing the Closing Working Capital Statement and to prepare a Statement of Objections (defined below); provided, however, such access shall be in a manner that does not interfere with the normal business operations of Buyer.

(ii) Objection. On or prior to the last day of the Review Period, Seller may object to the Closing Working Capital Statement by delivering to Buyer a written statement setting forth Seller's objections in reasonable detail, indicating each disputed item or amount and the basis for Seller's disagreement therewith (the “Statement of Objections”). If Seller fails to deliver the Statement of Objections before the expiration of the Review Period, the Closing Working Capital Statement and the Post-Closing Adjustment, as the case may be, reflected in the Closing Working Capital Statement shall be deemed to have been accepted by Seller. If Seller delivers the Statement of Objections before the expiration of the Review Period, Buyer and Seller shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such objections within thirty (30) days after the delivery of the Statement of Objections (the “Resolution Period”), and, if the same are so resolved within the Resolution Period, the Post-Closing Adjustment and the Closing Working Capital Statement with such changes as may have been previously agreed in writing by Buyer and Seller, shall be final and binding.

(iii) Resolution of Disputes. If Seller and Buyer fail to reach an agreement with respect to all of the matters set forth in the Statement of Objections before expiration of the Resolution Period, then any amounts remaining in dispute (“Disputed Amounts”) shall be submitted for resolution to an impartial nationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants mutually agreed upon by Buyer and Seller (the “Independent Accountants”) who, acting as experts and not arbitrators, shall resolve the Disputed Amounts only and make any adjustments to the Post-Closing Adjustment, as the case may be, and the Closing Working Capital Statement. The parties hereto agree that all adjustments shall be made without regard to materiality. The Independent Accountants shall only decide the specific items under dispute by the parties and their decision for each Disputed Amount must be within the range of values assigned to each such item in the Closing Working Capital Statement and the Statement of Objections, respectively.

(iv) Fees of the Independent Accountants. Seller shall pay a portion of the fees and expenses of the Independent Accountants equal to 100% multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount of Disputed Amounts submitted to the Independent Accountants that are resolved in favor of Buyer (that being the difference between the Independent Accountants' determination and Seller's determination) and the denominator of which is the total amount of Disputed Amounts submitted to the Independent Accountants (that being the sum total by which Buyer's determination and Seller's determination differ). Buyer shall pay that portion of the fees and expenses of the Independent Accountants that Seller is not required to pay hereunder.

(v) Determination by Independent Accountants. The Independent Accountants shall make a determination as soon as practicable within thirty (30) days (or such other time as the parties hereto shall agree in writing) after their engagement, and their resolution of the Disputed Amounts and their adjustments to the Closing Working Capital Statement and/or the Post-Closing Adjustment shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties hereto.

(vi) Payments of Post-Closing Adjustment. Except as otherwise provided herein, any payment of the Post-Closing Adjustment, together with interest calculated as set forth below, shall (A) be due (x) within five (5) business days of acceptance of the applicable Closing Working Capital Statement or (y) if there are Disputed Amounts, then within five (5) business days of the resolution described in subparagraph (v) above; and (B) be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account as is directed by Buyer or Seller, as the case may be.

11.3. Methods of Asserting Claims for Indemnification. All claims for indemnification under this Agreement shall be asserted as follows:

(a) Notice and Opportunity to Defend. If there occurs an event which any party hereto (or any of Buyer’s Indemnitees) asserts is an indemnifiable event pursuant to this Article 11, the Person or Persons seeking indemnification (collectively, the “Indemnitee”) shall notify in writing the party or parties obligated to provide indemnification pursuant to the terms hereof (collectively, the “Indemnitor”) promptly of the occurrence of such event.

The notice shall describe the claim, the amount thereof if known and quantifiable, and the basis therefor. Any delay or failure by an Indemnitee to so notify the Indemnitor shall only relieve the Indemnitor of its indemnification obligations hereunder to the extent, if at all, that the Indemnitor is materially prejudiced by reason of such delay or failure. The Indemnitor shall be entitled to assume and control (with counsel of its choice, provided such counsel is reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee) the defense of such matter at the Indemnitor’s expense by sending written notice to the Indemnitee of its election to do so within fifteen (15) days after receiving written notice from the Indemnitee. The Indemnitee agrees to cooperate fully with the Indemnitor and its counsel in the defense against any such asserted claim; provided, however, that neither the Indemnitee nor the Indemnitor shall be required pursuant to this Section 11.3(a) to disclose any privileged information or any attorney work product in connection with the defense of any such asserted claim. The Indemnitee shall make available to the Indemnitor, or its representatives, all records and other materials reasonably required by them for their use in contesting any claim. In any event, the Indemnitee shall have the right to participate (but not control) in the defense of such asserted claim with separate counsel, if it desires, at its own expense. Any settlement or compromise of such asserted claim by the Indemnitor shall require the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, provided that no such consent shall be required as long as it is solely a monetary settlement that provides a full release of the Indemnitee with respect to such matter and does not contain an admission of liability on the part of the Indemnitee or limit in any respect the operation of the Buyer or its Affiliates. If the Indemnitor shall not have assumed the defense of such claim within the fifteen (15) day period set forth above, the Indemnitee may assume the defense of such claim with counsel of its choice and the Indemnitor shall be required to pay all reasonable costs and reasonable expenses incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with such matter; provided, however, in the event the Indemnitee assumes control of the defense of any such claim as contemplated by this sentence, the Indemnitee shall not be permitted to settle or compromise any such claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnitor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(b) Exclusivity. After the Closing, except for the rights of the parties hereunder to specific performance or other equitable relief and except in the case of fraud or intentional misrepresentation, in which case the Buyer’s Indemnitees and Seller reserve any and all rights and remedies available to them, the indemnities set forth in this Article 11 shall be the exclusive remedies of the Buyer’s Indemnitees and Seller for any breach of this Agreement, and such parties shall not be entitled to a rescission of this Agreement or to any further indemnification rights or claims of any nature whatsoever in respect thereof, all of which Seller and Buyer (on behalf of the Buyer’s Indemnitees) hereby waive to the extent permitted by applicable law.

11.4. Survival; Related Matters.

(a) All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made herein shall survive the Closing Date; provided, however, that representations and warranties made herein shall only continue for a period of twenty-four (24) months after the Closing Date and no indemnification claim may be brought under Section 11 with respect to such representations and warranties after the expiration of such period (unless notice of such claim is provided prior to the expiration of such period); provided further, however, that (i) the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 5.3, 5.4, 5.7, 5.10 (as it relates to title), 5.14 and 5.15 (together with Section 5.9, the “Core Representations”) shall survive until the running of the applicable statute of limitations, if any, and no indemnification claim may be brought under Section 11 with respect to such representations and warranties after the expiration of such period (unless notice of such claim is provided prior to the expiration of such period), and (ii) the representations and warranties set forth in Section 5.9 (Title to Property) shall survive indefinitely. All covenants and agreements by or on behalf of the parties hereto that are contained or incorporated in this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of all parties hereto. The parties hereto hereby acknowledge and agree that for purposes of this Article 11 in determining whether any representation or warranty of the Seller set forth in Article 11 of this Agreement has been breached and for purposes of determining the amount of losses resulting therefrom, any and all “Material Adverse Effect,” “material adverse effect,” “materiality” and similar exceptions and qualifiers set forth in any such representations and warranties shall be disregarded. The parties hereto hereby further acknowledge and agree that any claim for indemnification made in writing in accordance with the terms of this Article 11 on or prior to the applicable expiration date with respect to any such claim as set forth herein shall survive any such applicable expiration date until the final resolution thereof; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall extend any relevant statute of limitations.

(b) Subject to the provisions of Section 11, all of the parties hereto are executing and carrying out the provisions of this Agreement in reliance on the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement or at the Closing of the transactions herein provided for.

11.5. Separate Obligations. The rights of Buyer and Seller hereunder are independent of and in addition to such rights and remedies of an equitable nature as either of them may have (other than actions or proceedings seeking monetary damages) for any misrepresentation, breach of warranty or failure to fulfill any agreement or covenant hereunder on the part of Seller or Buyer, including the right to seek either specific performance or rescission and restitution, none of which rights shall be affected or diminished hereby.

11.6. Effect of Investigation. The representations, warranties and covenants of the Indemnitor, and the Indemnitee's right to indemnification with respect thereto, shall not be affected or deemed waived by reason of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnitee (including by any of its representatives) or by reason of the fact that the Indemnitee or any of its representatives knew or should have known that any such representation or warranty is, was or might be inaccurate or by reason of the Indemnitee's waiver of any condition set forth in Section 8.

11.7. Liability Limits. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein:

(a) The Buyer Indemnitees shall not make a claim against Seller for indemnification pursuant to Section 11.1(i) for Claims unless and until the aggregate amount of such Claims exceeds $50,000 (the “Basket”), in which event the Buyer Indemnitees may claim indemnification for all such Claims in excess of the Basket; provided, however, that the foregoing limitation shall not apply to any breach or alleged breach of any Core Representation or of the representations and warranties of Seller set forth in Section 5.11; and

(b) The maximum aggregate liability of Seller for Claims with respect to claims for indemnification pursuant to Section 11.1(i) shall be $2,000,000; provided, however, that the foregoing limitation shall not apply to any breach or alleged breach of any Core Representation or of the representations and warranties of Seller set forth in Section 5.11.

11.8. Determination of Losses; Rules of Construction.

(a) The amount which an Indemnitor is required to pay to, for, or on behalf of any Indemnitee pursuant to this Section 11 will be reduced (including, without limitation, retroactively) by any insurance proceeds actually recovered by or on behalf of the Indemnitee in reduction of the related indemnifiable Claims net of any co-payment, retrospective premium adjustment, and increased premiums resulting from such Claims. The parties agree that the foregoing will not affect the subrogation rights of any insurance companies making any payment referred to hereunder.

(b) If an Indemnitor has already indemnified an Indemnitee for Claims and the Indemnitee recovers all or a portion of such Claims from a third Person, the Indemnitee will promptly refund the amount paid by the Indemnitor with respect to such Claims (up to the amount recovered from the third Person).

(c) “Claims” will not include lost profits or consequential damages suffered by an Indemnitee under this Agreement, but will include any damages which may be directly incurred by an Indemnitee or which may be claimed by third Persons. The parties agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate the Claims for which its Indemnitees are entitled to indemnification by any Indemnitor. In no event will any Indemnitor be obligated to indemnify the Indemnitee in an amount exceeding the actual costs, losses, liabilities, damages, obligations or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) actually sustained or incurred by the Indemnitee. Buyer expressly agrees that the foregoing provisions of this Section 11.8(c) will apply regardless of the legal theory upon which any Buyer Indemnitee may seek any indemnification, payment, contribution or damages.

(d) All Claims incurred by any Buyer Indemnitee that are subject to indemnification pursuant to this Section 11 will be payable first from, but will in no event be limited to, the Escrow Amount as provided for in this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement.

(e) Except for (i) Claims arising from or relating to fraud, and (ii) equitable remedies that may be available, the indemnification provided for in this Section 11 will be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Indemnitees, whether in contract, tort, or otherwise, for all matters arising under or in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(f) In determining whether any breach of any representation or warranty made by Seller is this Agreement has occurred, the terms “material”, “Material Adverse Effect” and other similar qualifications based upon materiality shall be disregarded and given no effect.
