(i) For purposes of this Section 1.2, gross revenues shall mean all revenues of any type or nature, without exception, as recognized in accordance with GAAP as consistently applied by the Company prior to Closing (the “Gross Revenues”). The Post-Closing Purchase Price shall be determined and paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds.

If the Seller does not timely deliver a Year One Gross Revenue Certificate Contest Notice (as defined below) or Year Two Cumulative Gross Revenue Certificate Contest Notice (as defined below) in accordance with Section 1.2(b)(v), the Year One Gross Revenue Certificate and the Year Two Cumulative Gross Revenue Certificate, as the case may be, shall be final and binding on all Parties.

(v) In the event the Seller contests any part of the calculation of either the Year One Gross Revenue or the Year Two Cumulative Gross Revenue, as set forth in the Year One Gross Revenue Certificate or the Year Two Cumulative Gross Revenue Certificate, as the case may be, the Seller shall deliver to the Buyer written notice of his objections thereto (a “Gross Revenue Consideration Certificate Contest Notice”) within 15 Business Days following the delivery of either the Year One Gross Revenue Consideration Certificate or the Year Two Cumulative Gross Revenue Certificate.

(vi) During the 30-day period following the delivery of the Gross Revenue Consideration Certificate Contest Notice, the Buyer and the Seller shall attempt to resolve in writing any differences which the Buyer and the Seller may have with respect to any matter specified in the Gross Revenue Consideration Certificate Contest Notice. If at the end of the 30-day period, Buyer and the Seller shall fail to reach a written agreement with respect to all of such matters, then all such matters specified in the Gross Revenue Consideration Contest Notice with respect to which a written agreement has not been reached shall be resolved by a mutually acceptable independent accounting firm in accordance with the provisions set forth in Section 1.2(c)(iii) except for the last two sentences of Section 1.2(c)(iii). In the case of a Gross Revenue Consideration Certificate Contest Notice, the expenses of the accounting firm shall be paid by the Party who is determined to be incorrect in its or his assertion as to whether the Year One Gross Revenue Target or the Year Two Cumulative Gross Revenue Target, respectively, was or was not achieved.

(vii) During the 24-month period following the Closing, Buyer and the Company (and any successor entity to the Company) shall use their best efforts to:

(A) Retain the services of Xxx Xxxxx and Xxxx Xxxxx throughout such period to manage the gross revenue-generating activities of the Company (and any successor entity to the Company) and the Business relevant to the Gross Revenues;

(B) Cause the Business to maintain standards of customer service to enable it to continue the growth pattern the Company and the Business have established in recent years preceding the Closing; and

(C) To maintain the Company’s (and any successor entity to the Company’s) and the Business’ product services and pricing levels at or above current levels.

(i) For purposes of this Agreement, “Closing Date Net Book Value” shall be the Net Book Value of the Company as of the close of business on the day immediately prior to the Closing Date plus $32,821.66 (certain severance pay and related payroll taxes on certain severed employees on 7/31/08), provided, however, that the liabilities of the Company shall not include any amounts payable by the Company to Xxx Xxxxx, Xxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx or Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx pursuant to their Release Agreements, any bonuses or severance payable to the Company’s employees, and related payroll taxes to the extent such amounts are paid on the Closing Date from amounts contributed to the Company by the Seller or the Buyer on the Closing Date or are otherwise paid by the Seller.

(ii) Within 15 Business Days following the Closing Date, the Buyer will prepare and deliver to the Seller a calculation of Closing Date Net Book Value (the “Buyer-Determined Closing Date Net Book Value Calculation”), which calculation shall be determined consistent with the preparation of the Financial Statements. The Buyer will make the workpapers and back-up materials used in preparing the Buyer-Determined Closing Date Net Book Value, as well as the personnel of Buyer and the Company with knowledge regarding any underlying matters, as well as use its best efforts to make its outside auditors available to the Seller (and his advisors) at reasonable times and upon reasonable notice.

(iii) If the Seller shall not deliver the Buyer a statement describing any objections to the Buyer-Determined Closing Date Net Book Value within 15 Business Days after receipt, then such Buyer-Determined Closing Date Net Book Value shall be deemed to be the “Stipulated Closing Date Net Book Value.” If, however, the Seller shall deliver to the Buyer a statement describing any objections to the Buyer-Determined Closing Date Net Book Value within such 15-Business Day period, then the Buyer will exercise commercially reasonable efforts to resolve, in good faith, any such objections with the Seller. If the Buyer and the Seller reach a resolution of all such objections, then the Buyer-Determined Closing Date Net Book Value as modified by such resolution shall be deemed to be the “Stipulated Closing Date Net Book Value.” If such a resolution is not reached within 10 Business Days after the Buyer has received a statement describing the Seller’s objections to the Buyer-Determined Closing Date Net Book Value, then any disputes regarding any accounting-related aspects of the calculation or

computation of such Stipulated Closing Date Net Book Value will be submitted promptly to a mutually acceptable independent accounting firm for resolution. Buyer, on the one hand, and the Seller, on the other hand, may provide the accounting firm, within five Business Days of its selection, with a definitive statement of their position with respect to each unresolved objection. The accounting firm will be provided with access to the books and records of Buyer and the Company germane to the Buyer-Determined Closing Date Net Book Value Calculation. The accounting firm will be asked to resolve any objections on an expedited basis, and shall in any event have no more than 20 Business Days to carry out a review of the unresolved objections. The accounting firm will be asked to prepare a written statement of its determination regarding each unresolved objection, and the Buyer-Determined Closing Date Net Book Value Calculation as modified by the accounting firm’s determination of Seller’s unresolved objections shall be deemed to be the “Stipulated Closing Date Net Book Value.” The determination of the accounting firm will be conclusive and binding, absent manifest error. If objections are submitted to the accounting firm for resolution as provided in this Section 1.2(c)(iii) and the Buyer does not prevail, by dollar amount, as to a majority of the objections asserted by the Seller, then the Buyer shall pay all of the fees and expenses of the accounting firm. If the Buyer does prevail, by dollar amount, as to a majority of the objections asserted by the Seller, then the fees and expenses of the accounting firm shall, for purposes of the Stipulated Closing Date Net Book Value, be treated as a current liability of the Company accrued and actually payable as of the Closing Date, and the Stipulated Closing Date Net Book Value shall be determined accordingly.

(d) In the event that the Stipulated Closing Date Net Book Value is greater than $2,780,000, then an amount equal to such difference shall be immediately paid to the Seller in immediately available funds, as an addition to the aggregate Purchase Price. In the event that the Stipulated Closing Date Net Book Value is less than $2,780,000, then an amount equal to such difference shall be immediately paid by the Seller to the Buyer in immediately available funds. If any payment to be made pursuant to this Section 1.2(d) is not made within sixty (60) Business Days following the Closing Date, interest also shall be paid on such payment by the payor to the payee from the Closing Date to the date on which such payment is made at an annual rate of six percent (6%); provided, however, that if Buyer does not timely comply with its obligations under Section 1.2(c)(ii) and the Seller is required to make a payment pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence of this Section 1.2(d), the Seller shall be relieved from any obligation to pay interest provided the Seller pays the Buyer the amount due pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence of this Section 1.2(d) within five (5) Business Days from the date the Stipulated Closing Date Net Book Value is finally determined.

SECTION 1.3 PAYMENTS TO PRE-CLOSING COMPANY EMPLOYEES PURSUANT TO RELEASE AGREEMENTS.

(a) To the extent such payments have not been made by the Company prior to the Closing Date, the Seller hereby agrees to pay on behalf of the Company (and as a contribution to capital of the Company), through the payments described in Section 1.2 to be made to the Company and the individual parties to the Release Agreements, the Company’s remaining obligations to make such payments under the Release Agreements.

(b) The Parties hereto understand and agree that the payments described in Section 1.2 to be made to Persons other than the Seller are payments for services rendered by such Persons to the Company on or prior to the Closing and are not for any services rendered to the Company or the Buyer after the Closing.

(a) any breach of any representation or warranty made by the Seller and the Company in this Agreement, (after giving effect to any disclosure made by the Seller and the Company in the Disclosure Schedule), including the schedules and exhibits, certificates or other instruments or documents furnished to Buyer by the Seller or the Company specifically required in connection herewith (after giving effect to any disclosure made by the Seller and the Company in the Disclosure Schedule), provided, however, that no breach of any representation or warranty shall be deemed to have occurred if Buyer, prior to Closing, had actual knowledge of the breach of any representation or warranty or that any representation or warranty was incorrect and did not disclose such fact to Seller ;

SECTION 9.3 INDEMNIFICATION PROCEDURE FOR THIRD PARTY CLAIMS. In the event that, subsequent to the Closing, any person or entity entitled to indemnification under this Agreement (an “Indemnified Party”) receives notice of the assertion of any claim or of the commencement of any action or proceeding by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of a party to this Agreement (including, but not limited to any Governmental Authority) (a “Third Party Claim”) against such Indemnified Party, against which a party to this Agreement is required to provide indemnification under this Agreement or which will be applied against the Basket Amount, as defined in Section 9.5(b)(i) (an “Indemnifying Party”), the Indemnified Party shall give written notice (a “Third Party Claim Notice”) regarding such claim to the Indemnifying Party within 20 Business Days after learning of such claim, unless the notice relates to commencement of an action or proceeding, in which case such notice shall be given as soon as practicable, and at least 15 Business Days prior to any response required by applicable Law or tribunal rule. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, upon written notice to the Indemnified Party (the “Defense Notice”) within 15 Business Days after receipt from the Indemnified Party of a Third Party Claim Notice, which notice by the Indemnifying Party shall specify the counsel it will appoint to defend such claim (“Defense

Counsel”), to conduct at its expense the defense against such claim in its own name, or if necessary in the name of the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party shall have the right to approve the Defense Counsel, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(a) In the event that the Indemnifying Party shall fail to give the Defense Notice within said 15-Business Day period, it shall be deemed to have elected not to conduct the defense of the subject claim, and in such event the Indemnified Party shall have the right to conduct the defense in good faith and to compromise and settle the claim in good faith with the consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and the Indemnifying Party will be liable for all reasonable costs, expenses, settlement amounts or other Losses paid or incurred in connection therewith but only upon the terms and conditions of this Article IX; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party shall keep the Indemnifying Party informed of all material developments and events relating to such claim or proceeding.

(b) In the event that the Indemnifying Party does deliver a Defense Notice and thereby elects to conduct the defense of the subject claim, the Indemnifying Party shall nonetheless (i) have, and be deemed to have, reserved all of his or its rights to deny, in whole or in part, the Indemnified Party’s claim for indemnification; and (ii) be entitled to have the exclusive control over said defense settlement of the subject claim and the Indemnified Party will cooperate with and make available to the Indemnifying Party such assistance and materials as it may reasonably request, all at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnified Party shall have the right at its expense to participate in the defense assisted by counsel of its own choosing. (Any fees or costs incurred by the Indemnified Party whilst engaging in such participation shall not be included within the calculation of its Losses for purposes of its entitlement to indemnification under this Section 9.3). In such an event, the Indemnifying Party will not settle the subject claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(c) Without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party which may be withheld for any reason or no reason, the Indemnifying Party will not enter into any settlement of any Third Party Claim or cease to defend against such claim after assuming the defense of such claim, if pursuant to or as a result of such settlement or cessation, (i) injunctive relief or specific performance would be imposed against the Indemnified Party, (ii) such settlement or cessation would lead to liability or create any financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party for which the Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder, or (iii) such settlement or cessation will not result in a full release of the Indemnified Party with respect to such claim.

(d) Notwithstanding Section 9.2(b), the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to control, but may participate in, and the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to have sole control over, the defense or settlement of any claim (i) that seeks a temporary restraining order, a preliminary or permanent injunction or specific performance against the Indemnified Party, (ii) that involves criminal allegations against the Indemnified Party, (iii) that if unsuccessful and even with indemnification hereunder, would set a precedent that would materially interfere with, or have a Material Adverse Effect on, the business or financial condition of the Indemnified

Party, or (iv) that imposes liability on the part of the Indemnified Party for which the Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder. In such an event, the Indemnifying Party will still have all of its obligations hereunder provided that the Indemnified Party will not settle the subject claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(e) Any final judgment entered or settlement agreed upon in the manner provided herein shall conclusively be deemed to be an obligation with respect to which the Indemnified Party is entitled to prompt indemnification hereunder.

(f) A failure by any Party to give timely, complete or accurate notice as provided in this Section 9.3 will not affect the rights or obligations of any Party hereunder except and only to the extent that, as a result of such failure, any Party entitled to receive such notice was deprived of its right to recover any payment under its applicable insurance coverage or was otherwise directly and materially prejudiced as a result of such failure to give timely notice.

SECTION 9.4 PROCEDURES FOR NON-THIRD PARTY CLAIMS. In the event any Party should have a claim against another Party hereunder which does not involve a Third Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”), the Party making a claim (the “Claiming Party”) shall promptly transmit to such other Party (the “Notified Party”) within 20 Business Days of the Claiming Party’s Knowledge or possession of sufficient facts upon which such Direct Claim may be based a written notice (the “Direct Claim Notice,” and together with a Third Party Claim Notice, a “Notice of Claim”) describing in reasonable detail the basis of the Claiming Party’s request for payment under this Agreement. If the Notified Party does not notify (the “Direct Claim Defense Notice”) the Claiming Party in writing within 15 Business Days from its receipt of the Direct Claim Notice that Notified Party disputes such Direct Claim, the Direct Claim specified in the Direct Claim Notice shall be deemed a liability of Notified Party hereunder. If Notified Party has timely disputed such Direct Claim, as provided above, such dispute shall be resolved by litigation as provided in Section 11.9 and Section 11.10 hereof.

SECTION 9.5 CERTAIN LIMITATIONS ON REMEDIES.

(a) Survival. All representations and warranties of the Parties hereto contained in or arising out of this Agreement or otherwise in connection herewith shall survive the Closing hereunder and shall continue in full force and effect for 12 months after the Closing Date, except the warranties and representations contained in the first three sentences of Section 5.1(a), Section 5.1(b), Section 5.1(c), Section 5.2, Section 5.3, Section 5.4, Section 5.12 and Section 5.22 and Section 6.1, Section 6.2, Section 6.3 and Section 6.4 shall survive ten (10) Business Days after the expiration of all applicable statutes of limitations (including any amendments extending said statutes). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, indemnification for any claim for which written notice as provided in this Article IX has been timely given prior to the expiration of the representation and warranty upon which such claim is based as provided herein shall not expire, and such claim for indemnification may be pursued, until the final resolution of such claim in accordance with the provisions of this Article IX. All covenants and agreements shall survive the Closing until performance is completed under the terms of such covenants and agreements.

(b) Limitations on Seller’s Indemnification. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement:

(i) the Seller shall not be liable to the Buyer Indemnified Parties under Section 9.1(a) (other than as a result of any breach of any representation or warranty contained in Sections 2.1, 2.3 and 2.4, the first three sentences of Section 5.1(a), Section 5.1(b), Section 5.1(c), Section 5.2 and Section 5.3) unless and until the Losses incurred by all Buyer Indemnified Parties as a result thereof exceed, in the aggregate, Two Hundred and Twenty Thousand United States Dollars (US$220,000)(the “Basket Amount”); provided, however, that in the event that such Losses exceed the Basket Amount, the Seller shall indemnify any Buyer Indemnified Party only for Losses in excess of the Basket Amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Basket Amount shall not apply to any breach of any representation or warranty contained in Sections 2.1, 2.3 and 2.4, the first three sentences of Section 5.1(a), Section 5.1(b), Section 5.1(c), Section 5.2 and Section 5.3, and the Basket Amount shall not apply to any Losses resulting from any fraudulent misrepresentation;

(ii) the indemnification provided for in Section 9.1(a) shall not apply to the extent that the Losses at issue have already been reflected as a accrual, reserve or liability (or a reduction in computing a net asset such as net accounts receivable) in computing the Closing Date Net Book Value.

(iii) any Losses as to which the indemnification provided for in Section 9.1(a) may apply shall be determined net of any actual recovery (whether by way of payment, discount, credit, off-set, tax benefit, counterclaim or otherwise) received by a Buyer Indemnified Party or the Company from a third party (including any insurer or taxing authority) less any current or prospective cost associated with receiving such recovery;

(iv) prior to the Effective Time, neither the Seller nor the Company shall have any liability to any Buyer Indemnified Parties in respect of this Agreement or the other transactions and arrangements contemplated hereby;

(v) from and after the Effective Time, neither the Seller nor the Company shall have any liability to any Buyer Indemnified Parties in respect of this Agreement or the other transactions and arrangements contemplated hereby except as expressly provided in Section 9.1; provided, however, that the total amount of such liability shall be limited in the aggregate, as of any time from and after the Effective Time, to three million dollars ($3,000,000) (the “Seller Liability Cap”) except in the case of any claim based on fraudulent misrepresentation, in which case the total amount of such liability in the aggregate shall not exceed the Total Purchase Price; and

(vi) neither the Seller nor the Company shall have any liability to any Buyer Indemnified Parties arising from or as a result of the termination of employment with the Company of the employees set forth on Exhibit E hereto, except to the extent that any such employee is entitled to a severance payment due to a contract with the Company (other than the Release Agreements) or under any Company Employee Benefit Plan in excess of the amount set forth on Exhibit E.

(c) Mechanics of Set Off. Subject to compliance with this Article IX, any payment of any portion of the Post-Closing Purchase Price shall be decreased, and Buyer may withhold any portion of the Post-Closing Purchase Price due and payable, by the amount necessary to satisfy all or part of any claim for indemnity made pursuant to this Agreement, for which written notice has been provided to the Seller at least 15 Business Days prior to such payment. Upon final resolution of all claims, Buyer shall remit the balance remaining, if any, of the withheld payment of any portion of the Post-Closing Purchase Price to the Seller in accordance with wiring instructions provided by the Seller if such claims are resolved and fully settled for an amount less than the amount withheld from the above payments. If Buyer does not remit the balance of any remaining Post-Closing Purchase Price within thirty (30) Business Days from the date when the Post-Closing Purchase Price was due without regard to the set-off provided in this Section 9.5(c), Buyer shall pay to Seller, at the time of remittance of such balance, one-half percent (0.5%) of such balance for each month (or partial month) between the date when the Post-Closing Purchase Price was due without regard to the set-off provided in this Section 9.5(c) and the date when such balance is remitted to the Seller.

(d) Mitigation. The Parties acknowledge that with respect to indemnity hereunder, applicable Law may require any Person claiming a right to indemnity under this Agreement to mitigate his, her or its damages.

SECTION 9.6 INSURANCE PROCEEDS. If any Losses related to a claim by an indemnified party are covered by one or more third party insurance policies held by the indemnified party (or, in the case of Buyer Indemnified Parties, the Company) and the indemnified party (or, in the case of Buyer Indemnified Parties, the Company) actually receives a full or partial recovery under such insurance policies (the “Insurance Proceeds”), the indemnified party shall be entitled to recover from the indemnifying party only the amount by which such Losses exceed the Insurance Proceeds (and shall refund any amounts previously received from the indemnifying party equal to the Insurance Proceeds). Except as set forth in the next sentence, nothing in this Section 9.6 shall require any Party to seek recovery under any insurance policy. The Parties agree that if the applicable insurance policy is a policy held by the Company prior the Closing or is a “claims made” policy held by the Company, then the applicable Buyer Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to seek recovery under such policy. To the fullest extent of applicable Law, Buyer, on behalf of itself, all Buyer Indemnified Parties and their respective insurers, and the Seller, on behalf of himself, all Seller Indemnified Parties and their respective insurers, waive all rights of subrogation with respect to the recovery of such Insurance Proceeds.

Date shall (x) in the case of any real and personal property Taxes, be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire taxable period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the taxable period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire taxable period, and (y) in the case of any other Tax, be deemed equal to the amount which would be payable if the relevant taxable period ended on the Closing Date. Any credits relating to a taxable period that begins before and ends after the Closing Date shall be taken into account as though the relevant taxable period ended on the Closing Date. All determinations necessary to give effect to the foregoing allocations shall be made in a manner consistent with prior practice of the Company.

SECTION 10.3 REFUNDS AND TAX BENEFITS. Any Tax refunds that are received by Buyer, its Affiliates or the Company, and any amounts credited against Tax to which any of the foregoing become entitled, that relate to any period prior to the Closing Date shall be for the account of the Seller, and Buyer shall pay over to the Seller any such refund or the amount of any such credit within 30 days after receipt or entitlement thereto.

SECTION 10.4 NOTIFICATION OF TAX PROCEEDINGS. In the event that the Seller receives written notice of any pending or threatened examinations, claims, settlements, compromises, proposed adjustments, assessments or reassessments or related matter with respect to Taxes that could affect the Company, the Seller shall notify Buyer in writing within five (5) Business Days thereof.

SECTION 10.5 COOPERATION ON TAX MATTERS. Buyer agrees to furnish or cause to be furnished to the Seller, upon request, as promptly as practicable, such information relating to the Company (including access to Books and Records and Company personnel) as is reasonably necessary for the filing of all Tax Returns, the making of any election related to Taxes, the preparation for any audit by any taxing authority, and the prosecution or defense of any claim, suit or Proceeding relating to any Tax Return. Buyer shall retain all Books and Records with respect to Taxes pertaining to the Company or the Seller until the applicable period for assessment under applicable law (giving effect to any and all extensions or waivers) has expired, and to abide by or cause the abidance with all record retention agreements entered into with any Taxing Authority.
