2.1 Purchase and Sale of the Shares.

(a) At the Closing, the Buyer will deliver to Seller the Cash Portion (subject to any adjustment pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof) in immediately available funds to an account designated by the Seller prior to the Closing.

(b) At the Closing, the Buyer will issue to the Seller 415,000 common shares of the Buyer Parent that, in aggregate, have a value as mutually agreed upon by the parties that is equal to Eight Hundred Thirty Thousand Dollars ($830,000) (the “Buyer Shares”), by causing the Buyer Parent’s transfer agent to issue to the Seller the Buyer Shares. As soon as practicable following the Closing, the Buyer Parent will file a registration statement on Form S-1 for the purpose of registering for resale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Buyer Shares and will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to be declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission as soon as reasonably practicable. The Seller will cooperate with the Buyer Parent and provide any requested information and complete any necessary selling security holder questionnaires as Buyer Parent may require in order to register the Buyer Shares in accordance with this Section 2.1(b). In addition, upon the request of the Seller from to time to time, Buyer Parent shall be responsible (at its cost) for promptly supplying to Buyer Parent’s transfer agent and the Seller a customary legal opinion letter of its counsel to the effect that the resale of the Buyer Shares by the Seller or its affiliates, successors and assigns is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act pursuant to Rule 144 (provided the requirements of Rule 144 are satisfied and provided the Buyer Shares are not then registered under the Securities Act for resale pursuant to an effective registration statement).

(c) At the Closing, the Seller will deliver to the Buyer a certificate or certificates representing the Shares, if certificated, duly endorsed or accompanied by stock powers duly endorsed in blank.

2.2 Adjustments to Purchase Price.

(a) Working Capital Adjustment.

(i) At the Closing, the Seller shall deliver to the Buyer an unaudited balance sheet of the Company (the “Preliminary Balance Sheet”) as at the Closing together with a certificate of the Seller stating that the Preliminary Balance Sheet was prepared in accordance with GAAP so as to present fairly in all material respects the financial condition of Company as of such date.

(ii) As soon as practicable following the Closing Date (but not later than seventy-five (75) days after the Closing Date), the Buyer shall cause its auditor to prepare and deliver to the Seller an audited balance sheet of the Company (the “Closing Date Balance Sheet”) as of the Closing Date. The Closing Date Balance Sheet shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP in a manner consistent with the Preliminary Balance Sheet so as to present fairly in all material respects the financial condition of the Company.

(iii) If the Closing Working Capital exceeds the Preliminary Working Capital, then the Buyer (or, at the Buyer’s direction, the Company) shall pay promptly (and, in any event, within seven (7) days) to the Seller an amount in cash that is equal to the excess. If the Preliminary Working Capital exceeds the Closing Working Capital, then the Seller shall pay promptly (and, in any event, within seven (7) days) to the Buyer an amount in cash that is equal to such excess; provided, however, that the Seller may, at its option, in lieu of paying such excess in cash, deliver and transfer to the Buyer a number of Buyer Shares that is equal to such excess divided by $2.00. Any such adjustment shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price.

(iv) In the event the Seller does not agree with the Closing Working Capital as reflected on the Closing Date Balance Sheet, the Seller shall so inform the Buyer in writing within fifteen (15) days of the Seller’s receipt thereof, such writing to set forth the objections of the Seller in reasonable detail. If the Seller and the Buyer cannot reach agreement as to any disputed matter relating to the Closing Working Capital within fifteen (15) days after notification by the Seller to the Buyer of a dispute, they shall forthwith refer the dispute to an Independent Accounting Firm mutually agreeable to the Seller and the Buyer for resolution, with the understanding that such firm shall resolve all disputed items within twenty (20) days after such disputed items are referred to it. If the Buyer and the Seller are unable to agree on the choice of an Independent Accounting Firm, they shall select an Independent Accounting Firm by lot (after excluding their respective regular outside accounting firms). The Seller, on the one hand, and the Buyer, on the other hand, shall bear one-half of the costs of such accounting firm. The decision of the accounting firm with respect to all disputed matters relating to the Closing Working Capital shall be deemed final and conclusive and shall be binding upon the Seller and the Buyer. In addition, if the Seller does not object to the Closing Working Capital within the 15-day period referred to above, the Closing Working Capital, as reflected on the Closing Date Balance Sheet as so prepared, shall be deemed final and conclusive and binding upon the Seller and the Buyer.

(v) The Seller shall be entitled to have access to the books and records of the Company and the Buyer’s work papers prepared in connection with the Closing Date Balance Sheet and shall be entitled to discuss such books and records and work papers with the Buyer and those persons responsible for the preparation thereof.

(b) Target Working Capital Adjustment. If the Net Working Capital Target exceeds the Net Working Capital as set forth on the Preliminary Balance Sheet, then the Purchase Price shall be reduced at the Closing by an amount equal to such difference. If the Net Working Capital as set forth on the Preliminary Balance Sheet exceeds the Net Working Capital Target at Closing, the Purchase Price shall be increased at the Closing by an amount equal to such difference.

(c) Adjustment for Outstanding Indebtedness. The Purchase Price shall be decreased by the amount of any outstanding indebtedness of the Company existing as of the Closing Date and the deducted amount shall be utilized to pay off such outstanding indebtedness.

2.3 Closing. The consummation of the Acquisition (the “Closing”) will take place by the reciprocal delivery of closing documents by electronic mail, regular mail, fax or any other means mutually agreed upon by the parties hereto on a date that is no later than two (2) Business Days immediately following the day on which the last of the conditions to closing contained in Article VIII (other than any conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing) is satisfied or waived in accordance with this Agreement or at such other location or on such other date as the Buyer and the Company may mutually determine (the date on which the Closing actually occurs is referred to as the “Closing Date”).

2.4 Transactions to be Effected at the Closing.

(a) At the Closing, the Buyer will (i) pay to the Seller the Purchase Price, adjusted in accordance with subsection 2.2(b) above and less the amounts paid pursuant to subsection 2.2(c) above by paying such sum to the Seller by transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with instructions provided by the Seller, (ii) deliver to the Seller a certificate or certificates representing the Buyer Shares duly endorsed or accompanied by stock powers duly endorsed in blank and (iii) deliver to the Seller all other documents, instruments or certificates required to be delivered by the Buyer at or prior to the Closing pursuant to this Agreement.

(b) The Buyer will have performed in all material respects all of the covenants required to be performed by it under this Agreement at or prior to the Closing except such failures to perform as do not materially adversely affect the ability of the Buyer to consummate the Acquisition and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

ARTICLE IX
TERMINATION; AMENDMENT; WAIVER

9.1 Termination of Agreement. This Agreement may be terminated as follows:

(a) by mutual written consent of the Buyer and the Seller at any time prior to the Closing;

(b) by either the Buyer or the Seller if any Governmental Entity will have issued an Order or taken any other action permanently enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting the transactions contemplated by this Agreement;

(c) by either the Buyer or the Seller if the Closing does not occur on or before the date that is the ninetieth (90^th) day following the date that the Seller delivers to the Buyer the Disclosure Schedule as required by Section 7.11; provided that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 9.1(c) will not be available to any party whose breach of any provision of this Agreement results in the failure of the Closing to occur by such time;

(d) by the Buyer if the Seller or the Company has breached their respective representations and warranties or any covenant or other agreement to be performed by it in a manner such that the Closing conditions set forth in Section 8.1(a) or 8.1(b) would not be satisfied; or

(e) by the Seller if the Buyer has breached its representations and warranties or any covenant or other agreement to be performed by it in a manner such that the Closing conditions set forth in Section 8.2(a) or 8.2(b) would not be satisfied.

9.2 Effect of Termination. In the event of termination of this Agreement by either the Seller or the Buyer as provided in Section 9.1, this Agreement will forthwith become void and have no effect, without any Liability (other than with respect to any suit for breach of this Agreement) on the part of the Buyer, the Buyer Parent, the Company or the Seller (or any stockholder, agent, consultant or Representative of any such party); provided, that the provisions of Sections 11.1, 11.6, 11.7, 11.8, 11.11, 11.13 and this Section 9.2 will survive any termination hereof pursuant to Section 9.1.

9.3 Amendments. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of the Buyer, the Company and the Seller.

9.4 Waiver. At any time prior to the Closing, the Buyer may (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the covenants, obligations or other acts of the Seller and the Company or (b) waive any inaccuracy of any representations or warranties or compliance with any of the agreements, covenants or conditions of the Seller or any conditions to its own obligations. Any agreement on the part of the Buyer to any such extension or waiver will be valid only if such waiver is set forth in an instrument in writing signed on its behalf by its duly authorized officer. At any time prior to the Closing, the Seller and the Company, may (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the covenants, obligations or other acts of the Buyer or (b) waive any inaccuracy of any representations or warranties or compliance with any of the agreements, covenants or conditions of the Buyer or any conditions to their own obligations. Any agreement on the part of the Seller and the Company to any such extension or waiver will be valid only if such waiver is set forth in an instrument in writing signed by the Seller and the Company. The failure of any party to this Agreement to assert any of its rights under this Agreement or otherwise will not constitute a waiver of such rights. The waiver of any such right with respect to particular facts and other circumstances will not be deemed a waiver with respect to any other facts and circumstances, and each such right will be deemed an ongoing right that may be asserted at any time and from time to time.

ARTICLE X
INDEMNIFICATION

10.1 Survival. The representations and warranties made herein and in any certificate delivered in connection herewith shall survive for a period of twenty-four (24) months following the Closing Date, at which time they shall expire; provided, however, that (i) the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.1 (Authority and Enforceability), 3.3 (The Shares), 3.4 (Broker’s Fees), 4.1 (Organization, Qualification and Corporate Power; Authority and Enforceability), 4.3 (Capitalization), and 4.17 (Environmental) of this Agreement (the “Fundamental Representations”) shall survive indefinitely and (ii) the representations and warranties in Section 4.6 (Taxes) of this Agreement shall survive until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations. If written notice of a claim has been given prior to the expiration of the applicable representations and warranties, then notwithstanding any statement herein to the contrary, the relevant representations and warranties shall survive as to such claim, until such claim is finally resolved. Unless a specified period is set forth in this Agreement (in which event such specified period will control), all agreements and covenants contained in this Agreement will survive the Closing and remain in effect indefinitely.

10.2 Indemnification by Seller. From and after the Closing, the Seller agrees to indemnify, defend and save Buyer and its Affiliates, stockholders, officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives (each, a “Buyer Indemnified Party” and collectively, the “Buyer Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and against any and all liabilities, deficiencies, demands, claims, Actions, assessments, losses, costs, expenses, interest, fines, penalties and damages (including fees and expenses of attorneys and accountants and costs of investigation) (individually and collectively, the “Losses”) suffered, sustained or incurred by any Buyer Indemnified Party arising out of or otherwise by virtue of: (a) any breach of any of the representations or warranties of the Seller or the Company contained in Article III or IV of this Agreement or (b) the failure of the Seller to perform any of his covenants or obligations contained in this Agreement.

10.3 Indemnification by Buyer. From and after the Closing, the Buyer agrees to indemnify, defend and save the Seller and to the extent applicable, the Seller’s Affiliates, employees, agents and representatives (each, a “Seller Indemnified Party” and collectively the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and against any and all Losses sustained or incurred by any Seller Indemnified Party arising out of or otherwise by virtue of: (a) any breach of any of the representations and warranties of Buyer contained in Article V and VI of this Agreement or (b) the failure of Buyer to perform any of its covenants or obligations contained in this Agreement.

10.4 Indemnification Procedure.

(a) If a Buyer Indemnified Party or a Seller Indemnified Party seeks indemnification under this Article X, such party (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give written notice to the other party (the “Indemnifying Party”) of the facts and circumstances giving rise to the claim. In that regard, if any Action, Liability or obligation shall be brought or asserted by any third party which, if adversely determined, would entitle the Indemnified Party to indemnity pursuant to this Article X (a “Third-Party Claim”), the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party of such Third-Party Claim in writing, specifying the basis of such claim and the facts pertaining thereto, and the Indemnifying Party, if the Indemnifying Party so elects, shall assume and control the defense thereof (and shall consult with the Indemnified Party with respect thereto), including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and the payment of all necessary expenses. If the Indemnifying Party elects to assume control of the defense of a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ counsel separate from counsel employed by the Indemnifying Party in any such action and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel employed by the Indemnified Party shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party unless (i) the Indemnifying Party has been advised by the Indemnifying Party’s counsel that a reasonable likelihood exists of a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party, or (ii) the Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense and employ counsel; in which case the fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party’s counsel shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party. All claims other than Third-Party Claims (a “Direct Claim”) may be asserted by the Indemnified Party giving notice to the Indemnifying Party. Absent an emergency or other extenuating circumstance, the Indemnified Party shall give written notice to the Indemnifying Party of such Direct Claim prior to taking any material actions to remedy such Direct Claim.

(b) In no event shall the Indemnified Party pay or enter into any settlement of any claim or consent to any judgment with respect to any Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) if such settlement or judgment would require the Indemnifying Party to pay any amount. The Indemnifying Party may enter into a settlement or consent to any judgment without the consent of the Indemnified Party so long as (i) such settlement or judgment involves monetary damages only and (ii) a term of the settlement or judgment is that the Person or Persons asserting such Third-Party Claim unconditionally release all Indemnified Parties from all liability with respect to such claim; otherwise the consent of the Indemnified Party shall be required in order to enter into any settlement of, or consent to the entry of a judgment with respect to, any Third-Party Claim, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

10.5 Failure to Give Timely Notice. A failure by an Indemnified Party to provide notice as provided in Section 10.4 will not affect the rights or obligations of any Person except and only to the extent that, as a result of such failure, any Person entitled to receive such notice was damaged as a result of such failure to give timely notice. Nothing contained in this Section 10.4 shall be deemed to extend the period for which Seller’s representations and warranties will survive Closing as set forth in Section 10.1 above.

10.6 Limited on Indemnification Obligation.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the liability of the Seller to the Buyer Indemnified Parties with respect to claims for indemnification pursuant to Section 10.2(a) (but not with respect to the Fundamental Representations for which recovery shall not be so limited) is subject to the following limitations:

(a) The Seller shall not, in the aggregate, be liable to the Buyer Indemnified Parties for Losses arising under Section 10.2(a) (other than with respect to acts of fraud or the Fundamental Representations for which recovery shall not be so limited) to the extent that the amounts otherwise indemnifiable for such breaches exceeds the Purchase Price.

(b) The Seller shall not be liable to the Buyer Indemnified Parties for Losses arising under Section 10.2(a) (other than with respect to acts of fraud or Fundamental Representations for which recovery shall not be so limited) until and unless the aggregate amounts indemnifiable for such breaches exceeds $25,000. In the event the Buyer Indemnified Parties’ claim for Losses, in the aggregate, exceed $25,000, the Buyer Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to the entire amount of such Losses back to the first dollar.

(c) The Seller shall not be liable to the Buyer Indemnified Parties for Losses arising under Section 10.2 unless the claim therefor is asserted in writing on or prior to the expiration of the applicable representations and warranties.

(d) Losses otherwise subject to indemnity hereunder will be calculated after application of any received insurance proceeds actually received by the Indemnitee (net of costs of recovery).

10.7 Payments. Payments of all amounts owing by an Indemnifying Party under this Article X shall be made promptly upon the determination in accordance with this Article X that an indemnification obligation is owing by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party.
