3.1. Purchase Price and Allocation.

(a) Purchase Price. Subject to the adjustments described in this Section 3, the total purchase price for the Specified Assets (“Purchase Price”) shall consist of: (i) a cash payment by Acquisition to AGS in the amount of Seven Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($7,500,000.00)(“Cash Amount”), (ii) a subordinated, secured, guaranteed promissory note in the amount of One Million Dollars ($1,000,00.00) issued by Acquisition in favor of AGS in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A-1 (the “One Million Dollar Note Payable”), (iii) a subordinated, secured, guaranteed promissory note in the amount of Three Million Dollars ($3,000,00.00) issued by Acquisition in favor of AGS in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A-2 (the “Three Million Dollar Note Payable”) and (iv) the assumption by Acquisition of the Specified Liabilities of AGS.

(b) Payment of the Purchase Price. Subject to the adjustments described in this Section 3, WidePoint shall cause the Purchase Price to be paid to AGS by the delivery of (A) the One Million Dollar Note Payable to AGS on the Closing Date, (B) the Three Million Dollar Note Payable to AGS on the Closing Date and (C) the delivery of the Cash Amount, by wire transfer or other delivery of immediately available funds, as follows:

(i) Delivery to Debt Payoff Escrow Account. The amount of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.00) (“Debt Payoff Escrow Amount”) to be delivered to Cardinal Trust and Investments, as escrow agent, on the date of this Agreement and held in escrow pending release in accordance with the provisions of that certain escrow agreement attached hereto as Exhibit B and executed as of the date of this Agreement.

(ii) Delivery to Escrow Account. The amount of Two Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,500,000.00) (“Escrow Amount”) to be delivered to Cardinal Trust and Investments, as escrow agent, on the date of this Agreement and held in escrow pending release in accordance with the provisions of that certain escrow agreement attached hereto as Exhibit C and executed as of the date of this Agreement (“Escrow Agreement”).

3.2. Minimum Net Working Capital.

(a) [Intentionally deleted]

(b) Minimum Net Working Capital.

(i) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, AGS and each Major Shareholder guarantees that AGS’s adjusted working capital measured as of the close of business on the Closing Date (the “Adjusted Working Capital”) shall be no less than Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00) (the “Minimum Working Capital Amount”). Adjusted Working Capital means the book value of the cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments, trade accounts receivables and prepaid assets of AGS (net of allowances for bad debt), less the book value of the accounts payable and accrued liabilities of AGS, as adjusted as hereinafter provided, except that Adjusted Working Capital shall include only (A) the Specified Assets and (B) the Specified Liabilities less the current portion of any such Specified Liabilities included in the Debt Payoff Escrow Amount under Section 3.1(b)(i) above.

(ii) On or before the date which is sixty (60) days following the Closing Date (the “Post-Closing Adjustment Date”), WidePoint shall prepare or cause to be prepared a final balance sheet of AGS as of the Closing Date. If, on the Post-Closing Adjustment Date, Adjusted Working Capital measured as of the Closing Date is less than the Minimum Working Capital Amount, WidePoint shall be entitled to release from the Escrow Amount, in accordance with the terms and conditions and at the times set forth in the Escrow Agreement, and deliver to Acquisition or WidePoint an amount equal to the difference between the Minimum Working Capital Amount and the Adjusted Working Capital Amount; provided, however, that in the event that the difference between the Minimum Working Capital Amount and the Adjusted Working Capital Amount shall exceed the amounts then-remaining in the Escrow Amount and/or the Escrow Agreement shall have been terminated, AGS shall deliver to Acquisition, in immediately available funds, an amount equal to the difference between the Minimum Working Capital Amount and the Adjusted Working Capital Amount. If, on the Post-Closing Adjustment Date, Adjusted Working Capital measured as of the Closing Date is greater than the Minimum Working Capital Amount, Acquisition shall deliver to AGS, in immediately available funds, an amount equal to the difference between the Adjusted Working Capital Amount and the Minimum Working Capital Amount.

(iii) In the event that any adjustment to the Purchase Price is necessary under the terms of this Section 3.2(b), then Acquisition or WidePoint shall deliver the calculation and determination of any adjustment to the Purchase Price (the “Adjustment”) to AGS within fifteen (15) days after the Post-Closing Adjustment Date. Such calculation shall be deemed conclusive and binding on the parties for purposes of computing the Adjustment unless AGS objects to the determination of the Adjustment by delivering a detailed statement describing AGS’s objections with any supporting data to WidePoint within fifteen (15) days after receiving the written determination of the Adjustment and supporting calculations from WidePoint. WidePoint and AGS will use reasonable efforts to resolve any such objections themselves. Any dispute regarding the determination of the Adjustment shall be resolved in the manner set forth below in Section 3.2(b)(iv). If AGS does not provide such written notice to WidePoint within such 15-day period, then WidePoint shall make the appropriate Adjustment in accordance with this Section 3.2(b) within five (5) business days after the date by which AGS was required to provide such written notice under this Section 3.2(b)(iii).

(iv) Dispute Resolution Mechanism.

(A) If the parties do not obtain a final resolution of a dispute regarding the determination of the Adjustment under this Section 3.2(b) within thirty (30) days after WidePoint has received the statement of objections from AGS, WidePoint and AGS will select an accounting firm mutually acceptable to them to resolve any remaining objections. If WidePoint and AGS are unable to agree on the choice of an accounting firm, WidePoint will select an independent certified public accounting firm. The determination of any accounting firm so selected will be set forth in writing and will be conclusive and binding upon the parties. WidePoint will revise the determination of the Adjustment to reflect the resolution of any objections thereto.

(B) In the event the parties submit any unresolved objections with respect to the determination of any Adjustment to an accounting firm for resolution as provided herein, WidePoint and AGS will share responsibility for the fees and expenses of the accounting firm as follows:

(1) if the accounting firm agrees with WidePoint’s determination of the amount of the Adjustment (with the amount so determined by WidePoint referred to herein as “WidePoint’s Value”), AGS and the Major Shareholders, jointly and severally, will be responsible for all of the fees and expenses of the accounting firm incurred in connection with the preparation of such determination;

(2) if the accounting firm agrees with AGS’s determination of the amount of the Adjustment (with the amount so determined by AGS referred to herein as “AGS’s Value”), WidePoint will be responsible for all of the fees and expenses of the accounting firm incurred in connection with the preparation such determination; and

(3) if the accounting firm determines that the amount of the Adjustment (the “Actual Value”) is different from either WidePoint’s Value or AGS’s Value, the party whose determination is closest to the Actual Value will be responsible for that fraction of the fees and expenses of the accounting firm equal to (x) the difference between the closest party’s determination and the Actual Value over (y) the greater of the difference between (I) WidePoint’s Value and AGS’s Value and (II) the other party’s determination (which is furthest from the Actual Value) and the Actual Value, and the other party will be responsible for the remainder of the fees and expenses.

(C) Each party will make the work papers and back-up materials used in determining WidePoint’s Value and AGS’s Value available to the other party and their accountants and other representatives at reasonable times and upon reasonable notice at any time during (I) the preparation of WidePoint’s Value or AGS’s Value, (II) the review by either party of the other party’s determination of the Adjustment, and (III) the resolution by the parties of any objections thereto.

3.3. Clawback Provisions.

(a) General. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 3, the amounts due and owing by Acquisition to AGS under the Three Million Dollar Note Payable shall be reduced by an aggregate principal amount of up to Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000), plus interest accrued thereon, with the amount of such reductions to be calculated in accordance with the formula set forth on Annex A attached hereto, in the event that Acquisition fails to achieve certain specified AGS Adjusted Gross Profit (as defined in Annex A) for the calendar years ending December 31, 2012 and 2013, all as more fully set forth on Annex A. For each of the calendar years ending December 31, 2012 and 2013, Acquisition shall be entitled to a maximum reduction in the principal amount of the Three Million Dollar Note Payable of One Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,500,000) per year, plus accrued interest thereon. The parties hereby agree that in the event that Acquisition shall be entitled to a reduction of the Three Million Dollar Note Payable pursuant to this Section 3.3, then the principal amount of the Three Million Dollar Note Payable shall be reduced by the amount of such reduction determined in accordance with the formula set forth on Annex A and AGS shall forfeit any right to receive any and all accrued interest on such amount.

(b) Calculation and Resolution of Clawback.

(i) WidePoint shall deliver to AGS, within ten (10) days after the filing by WidePoint of the WidePoint Annual Report on Form 10-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission after the end of each of calendar years 2012 and 2013, a statement of AGS Revenues and AGS Adjusted Gross Profits realized for each such calendar year and its determination of whether a reduction of the Three Million Dollar Note Payable is applicable under this Section 3.3 and the amount of any such reduction (the “Clawback Statement”). Each Clawback Statement shall be prepared in accordance with US GAAP, in all cases as US GAAP is expressly modified by the terms of this Agreement and the Clawback Statement. In the event that Acquisition or WidePoint shall determine that Acquisition is entitled to a reduction of the Three Million Dollar Note Payable in accordance with this Section 3.3, Acquisition shall have the right to withhold payment under the Three Million Dollar Note Payable in the amount of such claimed reduction, including interest accrued thereon, until such time as a final determination as to the right of Acquisition to exercise its rights under this Section 3.3 shall be made in accordance with this Section 3.3(b). Any amounts so withheld shall not earn interest under the Three Million Dollar Note Payable or otherwise during the period of the resolution provided pursuant to this Section 3.3(b).

(ii) AGS shall notify WidePoint in writing of any objections to a Clawback Statement (“Clawback Objection Notice”) within thirty (30) days after AGS receives such Clawback Statement (“Clawback Statement Review Period”). WidePoint and AGS shall in good faith attempt to agree upon the AGS Revenues and AGS Adjusted Gross Profit for the applicable calendar year, if any, within thirty (30) days after receipt by WidePoint of the Clawback Objection Notice (“Clawback Discussion Period”). In the event that AGS and WidePoint mutually agree that Acquisition shall be entitled to a reduction of the Three Million Dollar Note Payable in accordance with this Section 3.3, then Acquisition shall, within fifteen (15) business days following such resolution, adjust the amounts of any outstanding payments and principal amount under the Three Million Dollar Note Payable in accordance with this Section 3.3. In the event that AGS and WidePoint mutually agree that Acquisition shall not be entitled to a reduction of the payment then due under the Three Million Dollar Note Payable in accordance with this Section 3.3, then Acquisition shall, within fifteen (15) business days following such resolution, pay to AGS any principal and interest withheld in accordance with Section 3.3(b)(i) above. If AGS does not notify WidePoint of any objections to the Clawback Statement by the end of the Clawback Statement Review Period, then the Clawback Statement shall be considered final on the last day of the Clawback Statement Review Period and Acquisition shall, within fifteen (15) business days following the termination of the Clawback Statement Review Period, adjust the amounts of any outstanding payments and principal amount under the Three Million Dollar Note Payable in accordance with this Section 3.3.

(iii) If AGS and WidePoint are unable to resolve their differences during the Clawback Discussion Period, then AGS and WidePoint shall instruct their respective accountants to, in good faith, use reasonable efforts to resolve such disputed items to their mutual satisfaction and to deliver a final Clawback Statement to AGS and WidePoint as soon as reasonably possible. If such accountants are able to come to a resolution and determine that Acquisition is entitled to a reduction of the Three Million Dollar Note Payable in accordance with this Section 3.3, then Acquisition shall, within fifteen (15) business days following such resolution, adjust the applicable amounts of any payments and principal amount under the Three Million Dollar Note Payable to reflect such adjustments. If such accountants are able to come to a resolution and determine that Acquisition is not entitled to a reduction of the Three Million Dollar Note Payable in accordance with this Section 3.3, then Acquisition shall, within fifteen (15) business days following such resolution, pay to AGS any principal and interest withheld in accordance with Section 3.3(b)(i). If AGS’s accountants and WidePoint’s accountants are unable to resolve any such disputed items within thirty (30) days after receiving such instructions (“Accountant Review Period”), then the remaining disputed items shall be submitted to either (A) one arbitrator as mutually agreed upon by each of AGS and WidePoint within thirty (30) days after the expiration of the Accounting Review Period or (B) in the event AGS and WidePoint are not able to mutually agree upon an arbitrator, then each of AGS and WidePoint shall select one (1) arbitrator and then those two (2) selected arbitrators shall select a third arbitrator, with such three (3) arbitrators to then meet promptly thereafter to resolve the disputed items. AGS and WidePoint shall each pay for fifty percent (50%) of the costs of such arbitration, provided that each of AGS and WidePoint shall be solely responsible for all fees and expenses incurred by their respective accountants. The arbitrator(s) shall be instructed to deliver a final Clawback Statement to AGS and WidePoint as soon as possible, which shall be final and binding on the parties. In the event that such arbitrators determine that Acquisition shall be entitled to reduce the Three Million Dollar Note Payable in accordance with this Section 3.3, Acquisition shall, within fifteen (15) business days after the final Clawback Statement is delivered to the parties in accordance with this Section 3.3(b)(iii), adjust the applicable amounts of any payments and principal amount under the Three Million Dollar Note Payable to reflect such adjustments. In the event that such arbitrators determine that Acquisition shall not be entitled to make such a reduction, then Acquisition shall, within fifteen (15) business days following such resolution, pay to AGS any principal and interest withheld under Section 3.3(b)(i) above.

3.4. Currency and Method of Payment. All dollar amounts stated in this Agreement are stated in United States currency, and all payments required under this Agreement shall be paid in United States currency. All payments required under this Agreement shall be paid by ordinary corporate check or wire transfer of immediately available funds.

3.5. Prorations. The following prorations relating to the Specified Assets or Specified Liabilities will be made as of the Effective Time, with AGS remaining liable to the extent such items relate to any time period up to and including the Effective Time and are not included in the Specified Liabilities, and with Acquisition becoming liable to the extent such items relate to periods subsequent to the Effective Time. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the net amount of all such prorations will be settled and paid at the Closing or as soon thereafter as mutually agreed upon by the parties:

(a) Personal property taxes and assessments, if any, on or with respect to the Specified Assets; provided that special assessments for work actually commenced or levied prior to the date of this Agreement shall be paid by AGS.

(b) Rents, additional rents and other items payable by AGS under any lease, license, permit, contract or other agreement or arrangement of AGS to be assigned to or assumed by Acquisition.

(c) The amount of rents and charges for sewer, water, fuel, telephone, electricity and other utilities; provided that if practicable, meter readings shall be taken at the Effective Time and the respective obligations of the parties determined in accordance with such readings.

(d) All other items normally adjusted in connection with similar transactions.

If the actual expense of any of the above items for the billing period within which the Effective Time falls is not known at the time of the Closing, then the proration shall be made based on the expense incurred in the previous billing period, for expenses billed less often than quarterly, and on the average expense incurred in the preceding three billing periods, for expenses billed quarterly or more often. AGS agrees to furnish Acquisition and WidePoint with such documents and other records as shall be reasonably requested in order to confirm all proration calculations.

3.6. Allocation of Purchase Price. The parties agree that a purchase price allocation will be completed in accordance with GAAP and in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code by the independent third party expert named in Schedule 3.6(a). The allocation shall be completed no later than December 31, 2012 for the period ending as of December 31, 2011. The expense of such allocation will be borne by Acquisition. Acquisition shall inform the independent third-party expert that Acquisition desires to maximize the amount of the Purchase Price allocable to goodwill and intangibles that are treated as capital assets for federal income Tax purposes.

(b) The parties will cooperate in the timely preparation of the respective Forms 8594 with respect to the sale of the Specified Assets and Acquisition’s payments hereunder. The parties shall promptly give each other party notice of any changes to the foregoing information prior to the due date of any Form 8594.

(c) The parties shall be bound by the purchase price allocation for both GAAP and Tax purposes and shall apply such allocation for all purposes, including determining any Taxes, shall prepare and file all Tax Returns, including Form 8594, in a manner consistent with such allocations, and shall not take any position inconsistent with such allocation in any Tax Return, Proceeding before any Governmental or Regulatory Entity or otherwise. In the event that any allocation hereunder is questioned, audited or disputed by any Governmental or Regulatory Entity, the party receiving notice thereof shall promptly notify and consult with the other parties concerning the strategy for the resolution thereof, and shall keep the other parties apprised of the status of such question, audit or dispute and the resolution thereof.

3.7. Replacement Note.

In the event the exercise by WidePoint or Acquisition of its rights under this Section 3 or Section 13 results in a reduction in the principal amount of the One Million Dollar Note Payable or the Three Million Dollar Note Payable, as applicable, then the original One Million Dollar Note Payable or Three Million Dollar Note Payable, as applicable, shall be deemed to have been canceled on the date of such reduction, and AGS shall have the right to receive a replacement promissory note (the “Replacement Note”) from Acquisition.

(a) WidePoint expends substantial time and money, on an ongoing basis, to train its employees, maintain and expand its services, product offerings and customer base, and improve and develop its technology, products and services.

(b) In connection with the Transactions, during their tenure as a shareholder, consultant, officer and/or employee of AGS before Closing, and, if applicable, during their tenure as an employee of, or a consultant to, Acquisition after Closing, the persons executing employment agreements or consulting agreements with Acquisition who are currently employed by AGS have had and will continue to have access to, receive, learn, develop and/or conceive proprietary and confidential knowledge and information relating to WidePoint and Acquisition; such knowledge and information must be kept in strict confidence to protect WidePoint and Acquisition and to maintain WidePoint’s competitive position in the marketplace; and such knowledge and information would be useful to competitors of WidePoint for indefinite periods of time.

(c) The covenants of this Section 7 (the “Covenants”) are a material part of the agreement among the parties hereto and are an integral part of the obligations of AGS and the Major Shareholders; the Covenants are supported by good and adequate consideration; and the Covenants are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate business interests of WidePoint and Acquisition.

7.2. Nondisclosure Covenants. AGS and the Major Shareholders recognize and acknowledge that as of the Closing, such Persons have knowledge of confidential and proprietary information concerning WidePoint, Acquisition, the AGS Business and the Specified Assets and Specified Liabilities, including information relating to financial statements, clients, customers, potential clients or customers, employees, agents, suppliers, equipment, designs, drawings, programs, strategies, analyses, Intellectual Property, profit margins, sales, methods of operation, plans, products, technologies, materials, trade secrets, prospects or other proprietary information (“Confidential Information”). In light of the foregoing, at all times after the Closing Date, except with the written consent of WidePoint and Acquisition, AGS and each Major Shareholder (except in such Major Shareholder’s capacity as an employee or consultant of Acquisition or WidePoint) shall maintain the confidentiality of, and refrain from using or disclosing to any Person, all Confidential Information, except to the extent disclosure of any such information (a) is required by Law, (b) is in the public domain through no wrongful act on the part of AGS, such Major Shareholder, or any of their respective affiliates or agents or (c) in the event that such party reasonably believes after consultation with counsel that it, he or she is required by Law to disclose any Confidential Information; provided that prior to any such disclosure believed by such party to be required by Law, such party shall (i) to the extent permitted by Law, provide WidePoint and Acquisition with prompt notice before such disclosure so that WidePoint and Acquisition may attempt to obtain a protective order or other assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such Confidential Information and (ii) cooperate with WidePoint and Acquisition in attempting to obtain such order or assurance.

7.3. Noncompetition Covenants.

(a) During the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the third (3rd) anniversary of the Closing Date, except with WidePoint’s prior written consent, none of the Major Shareholders shall, and AGS shall not, directly or indirectly, in any capacity, at any location in the United States of America, throughout which jurisdiction AGS and the Major Shareholders hereby acknowledge that the AGS Business currently operates:

(i) Solicit, or participate as an employee, agent, consultant, owner, lender, securityholder, director, manager, partner, member or in any other individual or representative capacity in any business which solicits business from any Person that is or was a supplier or customer of the AGS Business or any portion thereof during the three-year period preceding the date of such solicitation, or from any successor in interest to any such Person, in any case for the purpose of securing business or contracts related to the AGS Business or any portion thereof or which otherwise relate to a Competing Business.

(ii) Establish, own, manage, operate, finance or control, or participate in the establishment, ownership, management, operation, financing or control of, or be a director, officer, employee, salesman, agent or representative of, or be a consultant to, any Person that conducts a Competing Business; provided, however, that nothing herein shall prevent AGS or any Major Shareholder from being a passive owner of not more than 1% of the outstanding capital stock of any class of a corporation which is engaged in a Competing Business and which is publicly traded, so long as neither AGS nor such Major Shareholder has any participation in the business of such corporation.

7.4. Enforcement of Covenants. AGS and each Major Shareholder expressly acknowledges that it would be extremely difficult to measure the damages that might result from any breach of the Covenants, and that any breach of the Covenants will result in irreparable injury to WidePoint and Acquisition for which money damages could not adequately compensate. If a breach of the Covenants occurs, WidePoint and Acquisition shall be entitled, in addition to all other rights and remedies that WidePoint and Acquisition may have at law or in equity, to have an injunction issued by any competent court enjoining and restraining AGS and any Major Shareholder, as applicable, and all other Persons involved therein from continuing such breach. The existence of any claim or cause of action that AGS, any Major Shareholder, or any such other Person may have against WidePoint or Acquisition shall not constitute a defense or bar to the enforcement of any of the Covenants. If WidePoint or Acquisition must resort to litigation to enforce any of the Covenants that has a fixed term, then such term shall be extended for a period of time equal to the period during which a breach of such Covenant was occurring, beginning on the date of a final court order (without further right of appeal) holding that such a breach occurred or, if later, the last day of the original fixed term of such Covenant.

7.5. Scope of Covenants. If any Covenant, or any part thereof, or the application thereof, is construed to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, then the other Covenants, or the other portions of such Covenant, or the application thereof, shall not be affected thereby and shall be enforceable without regard thereto. If any Covenant is determined to be unenforceable because of its scope, duration, geographical area or other factor, then the court making such determination shall have the power to reduce or limit such scope, duration, area or other factor, and such Covenant shall then be enforceable in its reduced or limited form.

7.6. Novations and Consents. AGS and the Major Shareholders shall cooperate with Acquisition and WidePoint and do all acts necessary to obtain (a) any approvals and consents required or deemed advisable by Acquisition with respect to the Non-Assigned Contracts, and (b) any approvals and novations with respect to the Government Contracts listed on Schedule 4.24(a) required by any Governmental and Regulatory Entity due to the Transactions contemplated under this Agreement.

Beginning immediately after the Closing Date, AGS shall not use, and shall cease all existing use, of all entity names, fictitious names, product names and other names that are included as part of the Specified Assets, except as may be necessary to perform their obligations hereunder or as may be necessary to exercise any rights or take any actions relating to the Assets of AGS that are not Specified Assets or the Obligations of AGS that are not Specified Liabilities. Upon WidePoint’s or Acquisition’s request, AGS shall promptly sign all Consents and other documents that may be necessary to allow Acquisition to use or appropriate the use of any name used by AGS or any subsidiary of AGS at any time on or before the Closing Date. Within five (5) business days following the Closing Date, AGS shall file an amendment to its articles of incorporation changing the name of AGS to a name not similar to AGS.

11.3. Contract Matters. After the Closing, each Non-Assigned Contract as to which the Contract Rights of AGS would otherwise be included in the Specified Assets but for the fact that the required Consent or novation for such Contract shall not have been obtained at or prior to the Closing Date (“Transferred Contract”) shall be handled in accordance with the following provisions, to the fullest extent permitted pursuant to such Transferred Contracts and applicable Law:

(a) Consent. AGS shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with Acquisition in Acquisition’s efforts to obtain Consent to the assignment of such Transferred Contract or a novation of such Transferred Contract, as applicable. If and when Consent to assignment or novation of such Transferred Contract is obtained, such Transferred Contract shall no longer be subject to the provisions of this Section 11.3.

(b) Subcontracting. AGS shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make available to Acquisition all Contract Rights and other benefits of such Transferred Contract, on a subcontract or sublease basis or in some other appropriate manner reasonably requested by WidePoint or Acquisition to the fullest extent permitted pursuant to the Transferred Contract and applicable Law, and Acquisition shall be considered an independent subcontractor or sublessee of AGS, or an agent of AGS, with respect to all matters concerning such Transferred Contract. Without limiting the foregoing, Acquisition shall be considered AGS’s agent for purposes of (i) collecting all amounts that may be due from the other party or parties to such Transferred Contract; and (ii) negotiating or otherwise handling all disputes and issues that may arise in connection with such Transferred Contract, other than such disputes or issues as to which AGS is obligated to indemnify WidePoint or Acquisition hereunder. Until Consent to assignment or novation of each Transferred Contract is obtained, Acquisition shall use commercially reasonable efforts to perform in accordance with the provisions of such Transferred Contract. Acquisition shall be entitled to retain all payments due from the other party or parties under the Transferred Contracts. Without Acquisition’s prior written consent, AGS shall not agree to any amendment, modification, extension, renewal, termination or other change in the terms of such Transferred Contract, nor shall AGS exercise any Contract Right under such Transferred Contract.

(c) Acquisition’s Instructions. At Acquisition’s direction and expense, AGS shall (a) notify the other party or parties to such Transferred Contract that Acquisition is AGS’s subcontractor, sublessee or agent with respect thereto and that all further payments, notices and other communications with respect thereto shall be directed to Acquisition; (b) agree to such amendments, modifications, extensions, renewals, terminations or other changes in the terms of such Transferred Contract as Acquisition determines, in its sole discretion, are advisable; and (c) exercise any Contract Right under such Transferred Contract at such time and in such manner as Acquisition determines, in its sole discretion, to be advisable.

(d) Collateral Assignment. Effective as of the Closing Date, AGS hereby collaterally assigns to Acquisition, and grants to Acquisition a security interest in, all of AGS’s contract rights under such Transferred Contract and all cash and non-cash proceeds thereof, as security for the prompt and timely satisfaction and performance of AGS’s obligations under this Section 11.3. AGS shall deliver to Acquisition at Closing possession of any original executed copy of such Transferred Contract in the possession of AGS. Effective as of the Closing Date, AGS hereby appoints Acquisition as AGS’s attorney to take such actions, in AGS’s name and on its behalf, as such attorney determines, in its sole discretion, to be necessary or advisable to protect, perfect and continue perfected the security interest granted hereunder including the execution and filing of such financing statements and other instruments and documents as such attorney determines, in its sole discretion, to be necessary or advisable for such purposes.

(e) Further Assurances. At any time and from time to time after the Closing Date, at Acquisition’s request and expense, and without further consideration, AGS shall promptly execute and deliver all such further agreements, certificates, instruments and documents, and perform such further actions, as Acquisition may reasonably request in order to fully consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and carry out the purposes and intent of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, AGS shall timely file all Tax Returns and pay all Taxes required to be filed and paid with respect to the Assets, business and operations of AGS for all periods beginning before and ending on the Closing Date.

11.4. Corporate Existence. In no event shall the Major Shareholders permit AGS to be wound up or dissolved or to otherwise terminate its corporate existence prior to April 15, 2015.

SECTION 12: OPERATIONS OF ACQUISITION AFTER CLOSING

12.1. Acquisition’s Operations during Clawback Period. During the Clawback Period, WidePoint and Acquisition agree that (i) the AGS Business acquired by Acquisition shall be operated solely by Acquisition and Acquisition’s sole business operations shall consist of the AGS Business and (ii) Acquisition’s business operations shall be conducted in accordance with the commercially reasonable directions of the Board of Directors of Acquisition, taking into account, among other things, the impact of their decisions on the ability of AGS to qualify to eliminate any potential reduction of principal and interest outstanding under the Three Million Dollar Note Payable pursuant to Sections 3.3(a) and 3.3(b); provided, however, that notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event WidePoint and/or Acquisition determines in its commercially reasonable business judgment that it is not commercially reasonable or practical to continue to operate the business of Acquisition with the Specified Assets and Specified Liabilities acquired in the Transactions, then WidePoint and Acquisition shall not have any further obligations to support the AGS Business as acquired by Acquisition under this Agreement, and nothing herein shall affect the sole and exclusive ownership by Acquisition of the Specified Assets.

SECTION 13: INDEMNIFICATION

13.1. Indemnification Adjustment. The Purchase Price shall be reduced from time to time by the full aggregate amount (the “Indemnification Adjustment”) owed to WidePoint or Acquisition under this Section 13 as adjusted, if applicable, to reflect the provisions of Sections 13.6 and 13.7, as a result of any Indemnification Matters (as defined in Section 13.5).

13.2. Indemnification by AGS. From and after the Closing Date, AGS and the Major Shareholders shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless WidePoint, Acquisition, and their respective successors and permitted assigns, and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives, from and against any and all actions, suits, claims, demands, debts, liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, costs, expenses, judgments and settlements, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs incurred by such Persons, arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, any of the following:

(a) Any breach by AGS or any Major Shareholder of any warranty or representation made by AGS or any Major Shareholder in or pursuant to this Agreement;

(b) Any failure or refusal by AGS or any Major Shareholder to satisfy or perform any covenant of such Person in this Agreement required to be satisfied or performed by any or all of them;

(c) Any deficiency, adjustment or assessment for Taxes made against or imposed upon AGS (or any of its subsidiaries, affiliates, predecessors, shareholders or successors);

(d) Any Obligation of AGS other than those expressly included in the Specified Liabilities, including: (i) any of the types of Obligations specifically excluded from the Specified Liabilities under Section 2.2; (ii) any such Obligation that may be imposed upon Acquisition as a result of the failure by AGS to comply with any bulk sales, bulk transfer, fraudulent conveyance or similar Law of any jurisdiction that may be applicable to some or all of the Transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and (iii) any such Obligation that may be imposed upon Acquisition or its affiliates as a result of any Law under which Acquisition or its affiliates may have successor liability for any Tax or other Obligations of AGS for all periods ending on or before the Closing Date and the pre-Closing portion of any period that begins before the Closing Date and ends after the Closing Date.

(e) Any Proceeding or Claim against Acquisition or WidePoint by or on behalf of any employee of AGS who is not employed by Acquisition at the Closing.

(f) Any Proceeding or Claim against Acquisition by or on behalf of any Person who, after the Closing hereunder, purchases or receives any equity interest in AGS, which Proceeding relates to AGS, its business, Assets or ownership.

(g) Any Proceeding or Claim against Acquisition or WidePoint by or on behalf of any Person who, before or after the Closing hereunder, asserts any claim against AGS or any Major Shareholder relating to AGS, its business, Assets or ownership.

13.4. WidePoint’s Indemnification. From and after the Closing Date, WidePoint shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless AGS and its directors, officers, employees, xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, xxxxx, xxxxxxx, personal representatives and agents, from and against any and all actions, suits, claims, demands, debts, liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, costs, expenses, judgments and settlements, including reasonable attorney’s fees and court costs incurred by such persons, arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, any of the following:

(a) Any breach by WidePoint or Acquisition of any warranty or representation made by WidePoint or Acquisition in or pursuant to this Agreement;

(b) Any failure or refusal by WidePoint or Acquisition to satisfy or perform any covenant of such person in this Agreement required to be satisfied or performed by either or both of them;

(d) Any Obligations arising after the Closing Date with respect to Transferred Contracts subject to the provisions of Section 11.3; and

(e) Except to the extent to which indemnification is provided pursuant to Section 13.2, and except for Obligations of AGS pursuant to this Agreement, any Obligations of Acquisition or any of its subsidiaries arising from or attributable to all periods beginning after the Closing Date and the post-Closing portion of any period that begins before the Closing Date and ends after the Closing Date.

13.5. Indemnification Procedures. With respect to each event, occurrence or matter (an “Indemnification Matter”) as to which WidePoint or Acquisition, on the one hand, or AGS and the Major Shareholders, on the other hand, as applicable (the “Indemnitee”), is entitled to indemnification from the other, as applicable (the “Indemnitor”), under Section 13.2 or Section 13.4:

(a) Within ten (10) days after the Indemnitee receives written documents underlying the Indemnification Matter or, if the Indemnification Matter does not involve a third party action, suit, claim or demand, promptly after the Indemnitee first has actual knowledge of the Indemnification Matter, the Indemnitee shall give notice to the Indemnitor (“Claim Notice”) of the nature of the Indemnification Matter and the amount demanded or claimed in connection therewith (“Claim Amount”), together with copies of any such written documents. Failure to give such notice shall not affect the Indemnitor’s duty or obligations under this Section 13, except: (i) to the extent Indemnitor is prejudiced thereby; or (ii) as otherwise provided in Section 13.5(c). For avoidance of doubt, in the event that AGS and the Major Shareholders shall be the Indemnitor, a Claim Notice shall be properly delivered for purposes of this Section 13.5 if such Claim Notice is addressed to AGS at the address set forth in Section 14.3 of this Agreement and such delivery shall constitute notice to each Major Shareholder.

(b) If a third party action, suit, claim or demand is involved, then, upon receipt of notice from the Indemnitee of such third party action, suit, claim or demand (“Indemnification Notice”), the Indemnitor shall, at its expense and through counsel of its choice, promptly assume and have sole control over the litigation, defense or settlement (the “Defense”) of the Indemnification Matter, except that: (i) the Indemnitee may, at its option and expense and through counsel of its choice, participate in (but not control) the Defense; (ii) if the Indemnitee reasonably believes that the handling of the Defense by the Indemnitor may have a material adverse effect on the Indemnitee, its business or financial condition, or its relationship with any customer, prospect, supplier, employee, salesman, consultant, agent or representative, then the Indemnitee may, at its option and expense and through counsel of its choice, assume control of the Defense, provided that the Indemnitor shall be entitled to participate in the Defense at its expense and the Indemnitee shall not consent to any Judgment or agree to any settlement without the Indemnitor’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; (iii) the Indemnitor shall not consent to any Judgment, or agree to any settlement, without the Indemnitee’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; and (iv) if the Indemnitor does not promptly assume control over the Defense or, after doing so, does not continue to prosecute the Defense in good faith, the Indemnitee may, at its option and through counsel of its choice and at the Indemnitor’s expense, assume control over the Defense and the Indemnitee shall not consent to any Judgment or agree to any settlement, without the Indemnitor’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. In any event, the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee shall fully cooperate with each other in connection with the Defense, including by furnishing all available documentary or other evidence as is reasonably requested by the other.

(c) The final amount owed by the Indemnitor to the Indemnitee (if any) shall be determined by a final Judgment (without further right of appeal) or by a settlement agreement or similar Contract executed by the parties involved, and shall be adjusted, if applicable, to reflect the provisions of Sections 13.6 and 13.7 (“Indemnification Amount”). At any time after such Judgment is rendered or such settlement agreement or similar Contract is executed, the Indemnitee may give notice to the Indemnitor (“Payment Notice”) demanding payment of the Indemnification Amount.

(d) In cases where the Indemnitor is AGS and the Major Shareholders, the Indemnification Amount owed by the Indemnitor to the Indemnitee shall be paid as follows, in the order set forth below, until such Indemnification Amount shall be fully satisfied:

(i) First, from the Escrow Amount, in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement, until the Escrow Amount is fully depleted, which amount shall be paid within five (5) business days after the Payment Notice is given;

(ii) Second, in the event that the Indemnification Amount shall exceed the funds then remaining in the Escrow Amount, then the remaining portion of such Indemnification Amount shall be paid by reducing the outstanding principal amount of the One Million Dollar Note Payable, plus any interest accrued thereon, until the One Million Dollar Note Payable shall be fully depleted, with such deduction to take place within five (5) business days after the Payment Notice is given;

(iii) Third, in the event that the Indemnification Amount shall exceed the amounts paid under Sections 13.5(d)(i) and 13.5(d)(ii), then the remaining portion of such Indemnification Amount shall be paid by reducing any amounts then due and payable to AGS under the Three Million Dollar Note Payable as a result of Acquisition achieving certain AGS Adjusted Gross Profit targets set forth on Annex A attached hereto, with such deduction to take place within five (5) business days after the Payment Notice is given;

(iv) Fourth, in the event that the Indemnification Amount shall exceed the amounts paid under Sections 13.5(d)(i), 13.5(d)(ii) and 13.5(d)(iii), then any remaining amounts shall be paid by AGS within sixty (60) days following the delivery of an additional Payment Notice to AGS demanding payment of the remaining portion of such Indemnification Amount;

(v) Fifth, in the event that AGS shall fail to fully satisfy the remaining portion of such Indemnification Amount within such sixty (60) – day period, then any remaining amount shall be paid by the Major Shareholders on a Pro Rata Basis, with each such payment to be made within five (5) business days following the expiration of the 60-day period set forth in Section 13.5(d)(iv) above, subject to the applicable Major Shareholder Cap; and

(vi) Sixth, in the event that the Indemnification Amount shall exceed the amounts paid under Sections 13.5(d)(i), 13.5(d)(ii), 13.5(d)(iii), 13.5(d)(iv) and 13.5(d)(v), then the remaining portion of such Indemnification Amount shall be paid by reducing any amounts due and payable in the future to AGS under the Three Million Dollar Note Payable as a result of Acquisition achieving certain AGS Adjusted Gross Profit targets set forth on Annex A attached hereto at a future date, until the Three Million Dollar Note Payable shall be fully depleted.

(vii) In the event that the principal amount of the One Million Dollar Note Payable or the Three Million Dollar Note Payable shall be reduced in accordance with this Section 13.5(d), AGS shall have the right to receive a Replacement Note in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.7.

(viii) For purposes of Section 13.5(d)(v), a Major Shareholder’s “Pro Rata Basis” shall be determined by dividing the number of shares of AGS capital stock owned by such Major Shareholder as of the Closing Date by the total number of shares of AGS capital stock owned by all Major Shareholders as of the Closing Date. For example, if a Major Shareholder owns 1,000,000 shares of AGS capital stock and the total number of shares of AGS capital stock owned by all the Major Shareholders combined is 10,000,000 shares, such Major Shareholder would be liable to pay 10% (1,000,000/10,000,000) of any such amount owed, subject to the applicable Major Shareholder Cap.

(ix) The “Major Shareholder Cap” shall mean the limit for which a Major Shareholder shall be liable to indemnify Acquisition and/or WidePoint under Section 13.5(d)(v), with such amount as set forth on Schedule 13.5(d)(ix) for each Major Shareholder.

(e) In cases where the Indemnitor is WidePoint or Acquisition, WidePoint or Acquisition shall pay the Indemnification Amount to AGS within five (5) business days after the Payment Notice is given. Such payment may be made either by submitting payment by wire transfer of immediately available United States federal funds or by certified check.

13.6. Limits on Indemnification. With respect to all Indemnification Matters, the Indemnitor shall not be liable as to any such Indemnification Matter for which the Indemnitee does not give a Claim Notice to the Indemnitor in accordance with Section 13.5(a) within thirty-six (36) months following the Closing Date.

(b) No amount shall be payable by the Indemnitor under this Section 13 unless and until the aggregate amount otherwise payable by such Indemnitor with respect to all Indemnification Matters under this Section 13 exceeds Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00)(“Basket Amount”); but in such event, the Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification in full, without regard to the Basket Amount, related to all Indemnification Matters payable by Indemnitor, including all future amounts that become payable by such Indemnitor under this Section 13 from time to time thereafter. For avoidance of doubt, the parties hereby agree that for purposes of determining whether the Basket Amount has been exceeded with respect to amounts otherwise due and owing by AGS and the Major Shareholders under this Section 13 as Indemnitor, such determination shall be made based on the amounts due and owing by AGS and the Major Shareholders under this Section 13 on a combined basis without regard to the payment provisions of Section 13.5(d) or any Major Shareholder Cap. For example, if WidePoint and Acquisition shall deliver a Payment Notice to AGS and the Major Shareholders in the amount of $75,000 and the application of the provisions of Section 13.5(d) results in a Major Shareholder owing $5,000, such Major Shareholder shall owe the full amount as the determination of whether the Basket Amount has been exceeded shall be based on the aggregate amount payable of $75,000, not such Major Shareholder’s individual liability.

(c) In the event that any breach of the representations and warranties made by AGS and/or the Major Shareholders in this Agreement shall result in an indemnification claim by WidePoint and/or Acquisition under Section 13.2(a) of this Agreement, and the breach of such representation and warranty underlying such claim shall result in a reduction of the AGS Adjusted Gross Profit for the applicable calendar year, AGS and the Major Shareholders shall not be liable to WidePoint or Acquisition under this Section 13 with respect to such indemnification claim in the event that the AGS Adjusted Gross Profit for such calendar year shall be no less than the 2012 AGP Floor or the 2013 AGP Floor, as applicable based on the calendar year in which such indemnification claim is made. The parties hereto agree and acknowledge that the provisions of this Section 13.6(c) shall not alter the obligations of the parties with respect to the indemnification procedures set forth in Section 13.5 but shall merely delay AGS’s obligation, if any shall ultimately be determined, to indemnify Acquisition or WidePoint pending the determination of AGS Adjusted Gross Profit for the applicable calendar year, as set forth above.

13.7. Exceptions to Limitations. The limitations set forth in Section 13.6 shall not apply in the case of any Indemnification Matter involving: (a) record or beneficial ownership of any of the equity interests of AGS; (b) title to or infringement caused by any Intellectual Property, technology, service or product which, at any time before Closing, was marketed, licensed, maintained, supported, owned, or claimed to have been owned by AGS or any affiliate, predecessor or subsidiary of AGS; (c) Taxes of AGS or any subsidiary, predecessor or affiliate of AGS; (d) the representations and warranties contained in Sections 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.9, 4.11, 4.12, 4.15, and 4.18; (e) the covenants and agreements set forth in Sections 7 and 11; and (f) any indemnification claim made by WidePoint or Acquisition pursuant to Sections 13.2(d), 13.2(e) and 13.2(f). Any claim made by a party hereunder by giving the other party a written Claim Notice thereof prior to the termination of the period set forth in Section 13.6, as adjusted by this Section 13.7, for such claim shall be preserved despite the subsequent termination of such time period.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 13, in the event of any Indemnification Matter involving intentional misrepresentation, fraud or any criminal matter, (i) the limitations set forth in Section 13.6 shall not apply and (ii) the liability of the Major Shareholders under this Section 13 for any such Indemnification Matter shall be joint and several and shall not be subject to any Major Shareholder Cap.

EXHIBIT 1

ANNEX A TO ASSET PURCHASE AGREEMENT

ANNEX A

Clawback Provision for Calendar Year 2012. For the calendar year ending December 31, 2012, in the event that Acquisition fails to generate AGS Adjusted Gross Profit (as defined below) of at least $5,428,000.00 (“2012 AGP Target”), Acquisition shall be entitled to a reduction in the principal amount of the Three Million Dollar Note Payable of up to $1.5 Million, with the actual amount of such reduction to be calculated as follows:

(i)

If AGS Adjusted Gross Profit for the calendar year ending December 31, 2012 (“2012 AGP”) is between $5,428,000 and $5,185,333 (“Tier 1”), Acquisition shall be entitled to a reduction in the principal amount of the Three Million Dollar Note Payable equal to the product of the following equation: [(2012 AGP Target - 2012 AGP) X 1.03 (“Tier 1 Multiplier”)]. For example, in the event 2012 AGP equals $5,300,000, Acquisition shall be entitled to a reduction in the principal amount of the Three Million Dollar Note Payable of $131,840 calculated as follows: [($5,428,000 - $5,300,000) X 1.03].

(ii)

If 2012 AGP is between $5,185,333and $4,942,667 (“Tier 2”), Acquisition shall be entitled to a reduction in the principal amount of the Three Million Dollar Note Payable equal to the product of the following equation: [(2012 AGP Target - 2012 AGP) X 2.06 (“Tier 2 Multiplier”)]. For example, in the event 2012 AGP equals $5,000,000, Acquisition shall be entitled to a reduction in the principal amount of the Three Million Dollar Note Payable of $881,680 calculated as follows: [($5,428,000 - $5,000,000) X 2.06].

(iii)

If 2012 AGP is between $4,942,667 and $4,700,000 (“Tier 3”), Acquisition shall be entitled to a reduction in the principal amount of the Three Million Dollar Note Payable equal to the product of the following equation: [(2012 AGP Target - 2012 AGP) X 2.06 (“Tier 3 Multiplier”)]. For example, in the event 2012 AGP equals $4,800,000, Acquisition shall be entitled to a reduction in the principal amount of the Three Million Dollar Note Payable of $1,293,680 calculated as follows: [($5,428,000 - $4,800,000) X 2.06].

(iv)

In the event the 2012 AGP shall be less than $4,700,000 (the “2012 AGP Floor”), then Acquisition shall be entitled to a reduction in the principal amount of the Three Million Dollar Note Payable of $1,500,000.

Clawback Provision for Calendar Year 2013. For the calendar year ending December 31, 2013, AGS and Acquisition agree that the calculation methodology will be identical to that utilized in the 2012 Clawback Provision above, except that new values shall be substituted for the key measurement targets for calendar year 2013. The parties acknowledge that the new measurement targets for each Tier cannot be calculated as of the date of this Agreement due to the fact that the 2013 AGP Floor cannot be determined at this time. The new values to be calculated will be determined by utilizing the formulas set forth in that certain Excel spreadsheet entitled “Clawback Adjustment Mechanism File” following the determination by the parties of the applicable 2013 AGP Floor. AGS and Acquisition hereby acknowledge that each of them has received the “Clawback Adjustment Mechanism File” and they agree to be bound by the calculations of the various amounts of AGS Adjusted Gross Profit to be calculated in order to create the Tier 1, Tier 2 and Tier 3 ranges. More specifically, the AGP Target shall be reset equal to $6,752,000 (“2013 AGP Target”) and the 2013 AGP Floor will be re-set to the greater of $4,900,000 or the 2012 AGP, provided that the 2013 AGP Floor shall not exceed the 2012 AGP Target of $5,428,000. The Tier 1 Multiplier shall be .40; and the Tier 2 and Tier 3 Multipliers shall each be .81. In the event that Acquisition fails to generate an AGS Adjusted Gross Profit equal to the 2013 AGP Target, WidePoint shall be entitled to a reduction in the principal amount of the Three Million Dollar Note Payable of up to $1.5 Million, as calculated using the 2012 Clawback Provision calculation methodology and the 2013 Clawback Provision key measurement target values.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Acquisition fails to achieve an Adjusted Gross Profit Margin of at least 38% for the calendar year ending December 31, 2012 and/or December 31, 2013, then, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by AGS and WidePoint, Acquisition shall be entitled to a reduction in the principal amount of the Three Million Dollar Note Payable of $1,500,000 for such calendar year. Adjusted Gross Profit Margin shall be calculated by dividing the AGS Adjusted Gross Profit by the AGS Revenue.

"AGS Adjusted Gross Profit" or “AGP” shall mean, for any calendar year, AGS Revenue minus adjusted cost of goods sold and sales, as defined under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). GAAP revenues shall include all sales of goods and services and equipment rentals. GAAP cost of sales shall include the following only: direct materials; direct labor; contract, temporary, and subcontract labor; direct employee benefits and fringe; direct employment taxes; sales commissions; sales agent and channel partner commissions; sales incentives and bonuses; customer data center charges and any amortization of capitalized new software development costs commencing after the Closing Date. For clarification purposes all of the following will specifically be excluded from GAAP cost of sales: any depreciation and amortization arising from fixed assets and purchase accounting in connection with the Agreement; interest expense incurred by Acquisition or in connection with the Agreement; travel, entertainment, lodging and meals (also commonly referred to in GAAP as contract sales and acquisition costs); and indirect general and administrative overhead burden allocated to Acquisition, for any calendar year, shall be excluded from cost of goods sold.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a Major Shareholder shall terminate such Major Shareholder’s employment with Acquisition for “Good Reason” in connection with a material breach by Acquisition of such Major Shareholder’s employment Contract, then the amount of any reduction in principal amount of the Three Million Dollar Note Payable to which Acquisition would otherwise be entitled subsequent to such termination in connection with Sections 1 and 2 of this Annex A and Section 3.3 of the Agreement shall be reduced by an amount equal to the product of the following equation: [(the amount of any reduction in principal amount of the Three Million Dollar Note Payable to which Acquisition may otherwise be entitled subsequent to such termination in connection with Sections 1 and 2 of this Annex A and Section 3.3 of the Agreement) X (the number of shares of AGS capital stock owned by such Major Shareholder as of the Closing Date / the total number of shares of AGS capital stock issued and outstanding as of the Closing Date)].

Notwithstanding the foregoing, AGS and Acquisition hereby agree that the amounts comprising (i) the 2012 AGP Target and the 2013 AGP Target, (ii) Tier 1, Tier 2 and Tier 3 (as set forth in Section 1 of this Annex A for the calendar year ending December 31, 2012 and to be calculated pursuant to Section 2 of this Annex A for the calendar year ending December 31, 2013) and (iii) the 2012 AGP Floor and the 2013 AGP Floor, as applicable, shall be increased by the amount by which total actual compensation (base salary and bonus) paid to each Major Shareholder (“Actual Compensation”) with respect to services rendered by such Major Shareholder in the applicable calendar year (even if payment of such compensation shall occur subsequent to the end of such calendar year) shall exceed the Baseline Compensation Amount (as defined below) for such Major Shareholder for the applicable calendar year; provided, however, that no such adjustment shall be made in the event that the Actual Compensation for such Major Shareholder shall be included in adjusted cost of goods sold and/or sales and reflected in the calculation of AGP for such calendar year. For purposes of this Section 6, the “Baseline Compensation Amount” for each Major Shareholder for the applicable calendar year shall be as follows: (A) Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx – 2012 - $164,000, 2013 - $189,000; (B) Xxxxx Xxxxxx – 2012 - $140,000, 2013 - $161,000; (C) Xxxxxx Xxxxxx – 2012 - $140,000, 2013 - $161,000; and (D) Xxxx Xxxxxxxxx – 2012 - $140,000, 2013 - $161,000.
