Buyer is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware with full corporate power and authority to conduct business as it is now being conducted, and to own or use the properties and assets that it purports to own or use.

4.2. Authority; No Conflict

4.2.1. Enforceability. This Agreement and the Other Transaction Documents to which it is a party constitute the legal, valid, and binding obligations of Buyer, enforceable against Buyer in accordance with their respective terms. Buyer has the absolute and unrestricted right, power, and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and the Other Transaction Documents and to perform its obligations under this Agreement and the Other Transaction Documents.

4.2.2. No Interference with Transaction. Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement by Buyer nor the consummation or performance of the Transaction by Buyer will give any Person the right to prevent, delay, or otherwise interfere with the Transaction pursuant to:

(a) any provision of Buyer’s Organizational Documents;

(b) any resolution adopted by the board of directors or the sole shareholder of Buyer;

(d) any Contract to which Buyer is a party or by which Buyer may be bound.

4.2.3. No Consents Required. Buyer is not and will not be required to obtain any Consent from any Person in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the consummation or performance of the Transaction.

4.3. Certain Proceedings

There is no pending Proceeding that has been commenced against Buyer and that challenges, or may have the effect of preventing, delaying, making illegal, or otherwise interfering with, the Transaction. To Buyer’s Knowledge, no such Proceeding has been Threatened.

4.4. No Broker or Finder’s Fees

Buyer and its Representatives have incurred no obligation or liability, contingent or otherwise, for brokerage or finders’ fees or agents’ commissions or any similar payment in connection with this Agreement, and will indemnify and hold Seller harmless from any such payment alleged to be due by or through Buyer as the result of any action of Buyer or its Representatives.

4.5. Investment Intent

Buyer is acquiring the Shares for its own account and not with a view to their distribution within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act of 1933 and regulations and rules issued pursuant to that Act. Buyer agrees that the Stock may not be sold, transferred, offered for sale, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of without registration under the Securities Act of 1933 and regulations and rules issued pursuant to that Act, except pursuant to an exemption from such registration available thereunder, and without compliance with all applicable securities Legal Requirements, in each case to the extent applicable. Buyer confirms that Seller has made available to Buyer and its Representatives the opportunity to ask questions of the officers and management employees of the Company and to acquire such additional information about the business and financial condition of the Company as Buyer has requested, and all such information has been received. Buyer represents and warrants to Seller that Buyer is an “accredited investor” as defined in Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933. Buyer has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that Buyer is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its purchase of the Shares.

9. COVENANTS OF SELLER AND BUYER AFTER THE CLOSING DATE

9.1. Release of Personal Guarantees of Seller

Buyer agrees to use its Best Efforts to terminate, replace or otherwise provide mutually acceptable indemnities for any personal guarantees provided by Seller for Company obligations in the Ordinary Course of Business, including but not limited to obligations in connection with (i) the Professional Services Agreement dated January 10, 2002, between the Company and Gevity HR V, L.P., and (ii) all credit card accounts of the Company. On or before the Closing Date, the Company may close all such credit card accounts (including but not limited to American Express, Visa and all gas cards) except the Citibank Mastercard account. Buyer shall cause the Company to assist Seller in closing not later than sixty (60) days after the Closing Date all credit card accounts of the Company that were open prior to Closing and were not closed as of the Closing Date, including but not limited to the Citibank Mastercard account. Buyer shall cause the Company to pay in full on or before the applicable due date all unpaid balances on all statements for the credit card accounts described in this Section 9.1. Seller shall promptly reimburse the Company for his personal expenses, if any, included in the unpaid balance as of the Closing Date on each such credit card statement.

9.2. Further Assurances

Seller will, upon request of Buyer from time to time after the Closing, execute and deliver, and use their Best Efforts to cause other Persons to execute and deliver, to Buyer all such further documents and instruments, and will do or use their Best Efforts to cause to be done such other acts, as Buyer may reasonably request more completely to consummate and make effective the Transaction.

9.3. Further Consents

If the transfer of the Shares to Buyer at the Closing without the consent or approval of a third Person would constitute a breach of any Contract to which the Company is a party or by which it or any of its properties are bound or create in any third Person the right to declare a default in respect of, or to cancel or terminate, any such Contract or any Governmental Authorization of the Company. Seller will after Closing use his reasonable efforts to assist the Company to obtain such consents and approvals, or effective waivers thereof, and will cooperate with Buyer in any reasonable arrangement designed to provide Buyer with the benefit of the Company’s rights thereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing and/or any other terms of this Agreement, other than to the extent of the express representations set forth in Sections 3.3.5(f), 3.5.2, 3.5.3, 3.5.4, 3.5.5 and 3.5.6, Seller does not guarantee or assure Buyer that any such consents, approvals or waivers can or will be obtained, does not guarantee that any customer or vendor will continue its relationship with the Company after the Closing and does not guarantee that the effect of any request for a consent, approval or waiver will enhance or ensure the continuation of a contract or the business relationship.

9.4. SEC Reports

On and after the Closing Date, Buyer shall timely file, or cause to be timely filed, with the SEC, such reports and/or statements required to be filed by it in connection with the consummation of the Transaction

9.5. Restrictive Covenants

(a) Beginning on the Closing Date and for a period of five (5) years thereafter (the “Restricted Period”), Seller covenants and agrees that, except on behalf of the Company or Buyer, he will not, directly or indirectly:

(i) Competing Business. Own, manage, operate, control, participate in the ownership, management, operation or control of, be employed by, or provide services as a consultant to, any Person that is involved in business activities in the United States that are the same as, similar to or in competition with, directly or indirectly, any business activities conducted, or actively being planned as of the Closing Date, by the Company (it being acknowledged that the Company’s business is national in scope). The ownership of stock of ACT or less than one percent (1%) of the outstanding stock of any public corporation shall not be deemed a violation of this provision.

(ii) Soliciting Customers. Attempt in any manner to contact or solicit any Person (A) that is or has been, a customer of the Company at any time during Seller’s employment with the Company, or (B) to which a proposal has been made by the Company during Seller’s employment with the Company, for the purpose of providing services or products similar to the services and products provided by the Company, or engaging in any activity which could be, directly or indirectly, competitive with the business of the Company.

(iii) Interfering with Other Relations. Persuade or attempt to persuade any supplier, vendor, licensor or other entity or individual doing business with the Company to discontinue or reduce its business with the Company or otherwise interfere in any way with the business relationships and activities of the Company.

(iv) Employees. Attempt in any manner to (A) solicit any individual, who is at the time of such attempted solicitation, or at any time during the one (1) year period preceding the termination of Seller’s employment with the Company, was an employee or consultant of the Company or Buyer, to terminate his or her employment or relationship with the Company or Buyer, or engage such individual, as an employee or consultant, or (B) cooperate with any Person in persuading, enticing or aiding, or attempting to persuade, entice or aid, any employee of or consultant to the Company or Buyer to terminate his or her employment or business relationship with the Company or Buyer, or to become employed as an employee or retained as a consultant by any person other than the Company or Buyer.

(b) Public Policy/Severability. The parties have attempted to limit the provisions of this Section 9.5 to limit the impact on Seller during the Restricted Period, and the parties expressly intend that all provisions of this Section 9.5 be construed to achieve such result. If, contrary to the effort and intent of the parties, any covenant or other obligation contained in this Section 9.5 shall be found not to be reasonably necessary for the protection of the Company or Buyer, to be unreasonable as to duration, scope or nature of restrictions, then it is the desire of the parties that such covenant or obligation not be rendered invalid thereby, but rather that the duration, scope or nature of the restrictions be deemed reduced or modified, with retroactive effect, to render such covenant or obligation reasonable, valid and enforceable. The parties further agree that in the event a court, despite the efforts and intent of the parties, declares any portion of the covenants or obligations in this Section 9.5 invalid, the remaining provisions of this Section 9.5 shall nonetheless remain valid and enforceable.

9.6. Retention of and Access to Records

For a period of six years following the Closing Date Buyer and ACT shall preserve (i) all books and records of the Company related to any time prior to the Closing Date and (ii) all Tax Returns with respect to the properties and operations of the Company related to the period prior to the expiration of such six-year period and all books and records that may relate thereto. Upon the expiration of such six-year period, Buyer and ACT shall provide Seller a reasonable opportunity to obtain copies, at Seller’s expense, of any of such books and records. As soon as practicable following the Closing, Buyer and ACT shall deliver to Seller, or provide Seller with access to, such financial information relating to the business of the Company as Seller may reasonably request in sufficient detail to enable Seller to prepare his personal financial statements and to prepare all Tax Returns of Seller and the Company relating to periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date. In addition to the foregoing, from and after the Closing, Buyer and ACT shall afford to Seller and his counsel, accountants and other authorized agents and representatives (collectively, the “Seller Representatives”), during normal business hours, reasonable access to the Company’s executives identified on Schedule 9.6 and the employees, books, records and other data relating to the Company with respect to periods prior to the Closing, and the right to make copies and extracts therefrom, to the extent that such access may be reasonably required by Seller (a) to facilitate the investigation, litigation and final disposition of any claims which may have been or may be made against Seller or his Affiliates, (b) for the preparation of Tax Returns and audits and (c) to facilitate the determination by Seller with respect to his right to any tax refunds that may be claimed by Seller. The Seller and the Seller Representatives will maintain in confidence, and cause their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors to maintain in confidence, and not use to the detriment of Buyer, ACT or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and Affiliates, written, oral or other information obtained in connection with this Section 9.6, unless such information is already known to such party or to others not bound by a duty of confidentiality or unless such information becomes publicly available through no fault of such party, unless the furnishing or use of such information is required by or necessary or appropriate in connection with legal proceedings.

10. MUTUAL COVENANTS

10.1. Expenses Except as expressly otherwise provided herein, each party to this Agreement shall bear its respective expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, execution and performance of this Agreement and the Transaction, including all fees and expenses of agents, representatives, counsel and accountants. In the case of termination of this Agreement, the obligation of each party to pay its own expenses shall be subject to any rights of such party arising from a breach of this Agreement by another party. At Closing, the parties will cooperate to pay any unpaid Transaction Expenses out of the proceeds of the Cash Purchase Price.

10.2. Public Announcements

Any public announcement or similar publicity, including any reports or statements required to be filed with the SEC with respect to this Agreement or the Transaction shall be issued or filed by Buyer within the time frames provided under the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC. Unless consented to by Buyer in advance or required by Legal Requirements, prior to the Closing, Seller shall, and shall cause the Company to, keep the provisions of this Agreement strictly confidential and make no disclosure thereof to any Person. Seller and Buyer will consult with each other concerning the means by which the Company’s employees, customers and suppliers and others having dealings with the Company will be informed of the Transaction, and Buyer shall have the right to be present for any such communication.

11. INDEMNIFICATION; REMEDIES

11.1. Survival

All representations, warranties and agreements contained in this Agreement or in any certificate delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the Closing notwithstanding any investigation conducted with respect thereto or any knowledge acquired as to the accuracy or inaccuracy of any such representation or warranty.

11.2. Time Limitations

Seller shall have no liability (for indemnification or otherwise) with respect to any representation or warranty in this Agreement, unless on or before the date that is eighteen (18) months after the Closing Date Seller is given notice asserting a claim with respect thereto and specifying the factual basis of that claim in reasonable detail to the extent then known by Buyer; provided, however, a claim with respect to Sections 3.1.1, 3.2.2, 3.4.5, 3.5.10, 3.11 and 3.13, may be made at any time prior to the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations. If the Closing occurs, Buyer shall have no liability (for indemnification or otherwise) with respect to any representation or warranty, or agreement to be performed and complied with prior to the Closing Date, unless on or before the date that is eighteen (18) months after the Closing Date, Buyer is given notice of a claim with respect thereto and specifying the factual basis of that claim in reasonable detail to the extent then known by Seller.

11.3. Indemnification by Seller

Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless Buyer, its controlling Persons and its affiliates and each of their respective agents, representatives, employees, officers, directors, stockholders (collectively, the “Indemnified Persons”), and shall reimburse the Indemnified Persons for, any loss, liability, claim, damage, expense (including, but not limited to, costs of investigation and defense and reasonable attorneys fees) or diminution of value, whether or not involving a third-party claim (collectively, “Damages”) arising from or in connection with (a) any inaccuracy in any of the representations and warranties of Seller in this Agreement or in any certificate delivered by Seller pursuant to this Agreement, any actions, omissions or state of facts inconsistent with any such representation or warranty of Seller, or any inaccuracy in any other statement, certificate or other instrument delivered by Seller pursuant hereto, (b) any failure by Seller to perform or comply with any covenant, obligation or understanding in this Agreement or in any Other Transaction Document, or (c) any claim by any Person for brokerage or finder’s fees or commissions or similar payments based upon any agreement or understanding alleged to have been made by any such Person with Seller (or any Person acting on its behalf) in connection with the Transaction.

11.4. Indemnification by Buyer

Buyer shall indemnify and hold harmless Seller, and shall reimburse Seller for, any Damages arising from or in connection with (a) any inaccuracy in any of the representations and warranties of Buyer in this Agreement or in any certificate delivered by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement, or any actions, omissions or state of facts inconsistent with any such representation or warranty, (b) any failure by Buyer or ACT to perform or comply with any agreement in this Agreement or in any other Transaction Document, (c) any claim by any Person for brokerage or finder’s fees or commissions or similar payments based upon any agreement or understanding alleged to have been made by such Person with Buyer (or any Person acting on its behalf) in connection with the Transaction, or (d) any Liability arising solely from the conduct of the business of and operations of the Company on or after the Closing Date (other than matters with respect to which Seller is required to indemnify Buyer pursuant to this Agreement).

11.5. Procedure for Indemnification - Third Party Claims

Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under Section 11.3 or 11.4 of notice of the commencement of any Proceeding against it, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party under such Section, give notice to the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, but the failure so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party except to the extent the indemnifying party demonstrates that the defense of such action is prejudiced thereby. In case any such Proceeding shall be brought against an indemnified party and it shall give notice to the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall, unless the claim involves Taxes, be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it shall wish (unless (i) the indemnifying party is also a party to such Proceeding and the indemnified party determines in good faith that joint representations would be inappropriate or (ii) the indemnifying party fails to provide reasonable assurance to the indemnified party of its financial capacity to defend such Proceeding and provide indemnification with respect thereto), to assume the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under such Section for any fees of other counsel or any other expenses with respect to the defense of such Proceeding, in each case subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof, other than reasonable costs of investigation. If an indemnifying party assumes the defense of such a Proceeding, (a) no compromise or settlement thereof may be effected by the indemnified party without the indemnified party’s consent unless (i) there is no finding or admission of any violation of Legal Requirements or any violation of the rights of any Person and no effect on any other claims that may be made against the indemnified party and (ii) the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the indemnifying party and (b) the indemnifying party shall have no liability with respect to any compromise or settlement thereof effected without its consent. If notice is given to an indemnifying party of the commencement of any Proceeding and it does not, within fifteen (15) days after the indemnified party’s notice is given, give notice to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall be bound by any determination made in such action or any compromise or settlement thereof effected by the indemnified party.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an indemnified party determines in good faith that there is a reasonable probability that a Proceeding may adversely affect it or its affiliates other than as a result of monetary damages, such indemnified party may, by notice to the indemnifying party, assume the exclusive right to defend, compromise or settle such Proceeding, but the indemnifying party shall not be bound by any determination of a Proceeding so defended or any compromise or settlement thereof effected without its consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld).

11.6. Limitations on Indemnification

11.6.1. Deductible Amount; Excluded Claims. No indemnifying party shall be required to indemnify an indemnified party hereunder except to the extent that (i) the aggregate amount of Damages with respect to any claim or series of related claims for which an indemnified party is otherwise entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 11 exceeds $25,000 (the “Minimum Claim Amount”) (it being understood and agreed that no indemnifying party shall be liable for any Damages with respect to any claim or series of related claims in the event that such Damages are less than the Minimum Claim Amount), and (ii) the aggregate amount of Damages for which the indemnified party is otherwise entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 11 exceeds $150,000 (the “Deductible Amount”) (it being understood and agreed that (A) any claim or series of related claims for Damages of less than the Minimum Claim Amount shall be disregarded for purposes of calculating the Deductible Amount and (B) the Deductible Amount is intended as a deductible, and no indemnifying party shall be liable for any Damages less than the Deductible Amount for which the indemnified party is otherwise entitled to indemnification), whereupon the indemnified party shall be entitled to be paid the excess of the aggregate amount of all such Losses over the Deductible Amount, subject to the limitations on maximum amount of recovery set forth in Section 11.6.2; provided, that Damages related to or arising directly or indirectly out of (W) any breach by Seller of his payment obligation under Section 2.5, (X) any claims for indemnification made under Section 11.3(a) with respect to any inaccuracies in any representation or warranty made by Seller in Sections 3.1.1. 3.2.2, 3.4.5, 3.5.10, 3.11 and 3.13, or in the Closing Calculation Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 2.8, (Y) any claims for indemnification made under Section 11.3(b) with respect to any breach of any covenant, obligation or undertaking of Seller in this Agreement or in any Other Transaction Document, or (Z) any claims for indemnification made under Section 11.3(c) (collectively, all such Damages referred to in this proviso being referred to herein as “Excluded Claims”) shall be indemnified in their entirety by Seller and shall not be subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 11.6.1; and further, provided that Damages related to or arising directly or indirectly out of (L) any breach by Buyer of its payment obligations under any and all applicable provisions of Sections 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, 2.5 and 2.9, (M) any claims for indemnification made under Section 11.4(a) with respect to any inaccuracies in any representation or warranty made by Buyer in Section 4.4, (N) any claims for indemnification made under 11.4(b) with respect to any breach of any covenant, obligation or undertaking of Buyer or ACT in this Agreement or in any Other Transaction Document, (O) any claims for indemnification made under Section 11.4(c), or (P) any claim for indemnification made under Section 11.4(d) shall be indemnified in their entirety by Buyer and shall not be subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 11.6.1.

11.6.2. Aggregate Losses. The aggregate Damages payable by Seller pursuant to this Section 11 with respect to all claims, other than Excluded Claims, shall not exceed an amount equal to $5,000,000.

11.6.3. Escrowed Funds. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Buyer shall seek payment for all amounts due with respect to all claims for indemnification against Seller (other than for Excluded Claims) out of the Escrowed Funds in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement until the Escrowed Funds are reduced to zero.

11.6.4. Gevity Recovery. Any Damages arising from a breach of the representations set forth in Section 3.4 of this Agreement (“Section 3.4 Losses”), that may be recovered from Gevity HR V, L.P. (“Gevity”) pursuant to the Professional Services Agreement, dated January 10, 2002, between the Company and Gevity, shall be paid by Seller pursuant to the terms hereof, net of any prior recovery from Gevity. Buyer shall use all reasonable efforts to recover such Section 3.4 Losses from Gevity, and, if applicable, will reimburse Seller to the extent of any such recovery for any Section 3.4 Losses already paid by Seller hereunder in connection with the applicable breach (net of costs incurred by Buyer to recover such amounts from Gevity).

11.6.5. Working Capital Claims. (a) Unless and until all Damages arising from Working Capital Claims (as defined below), if any, exceed the Working Capital Excess (as defined below), Seller shall have no liability to any Indemnified Person under this Article 11 in respect of any Damages arising solely from a breach of any representation or warranty in Sections 3.1.2, 3.3.2, 3.3.3.(a) or 3.3.7, and in each case relating to the value of any Current Asset in existence as of the close of business on the business day immediately prior to the Closing Date that (i) is included in Closing Net Working Capital of the Company reflected in the Final Closing Statement, (ii) in the case of a breach of the representations and warranties in Section 3.1.2, was based upon an impairment of the value of inventory in Closing Net Working Capital due to obsolescence or slow sales as a result of a change in the Company’s business relationship with a supplier or customer and (iii) did not arise as a result of a breach of any representation set forth in Section 3.3.3(b)(i) or 3.3.5 (“Current Asset Claims”).

(b) Unless and until all Damages arising from Working Capital Claims (as defined below), if any, exceed the Working Capital Excess (as defined below), Seller shall have no liability to any Indemnified Person under this Agreement under this Article 11 in respect of any Damages arising solely from a breach of any representation set forth in Section 3.3.2 or 3.3.4 relating to the amount of any Current Liability in existence as of the Closing Date that (i) arose in the Ordinary Course of Business, (ii) is not included in Net Working Capital of the Company reflected in the Final Closing Statement and (iii) did not arise as a result of a breach of any representation set forth in Section 3.3.3(b)(ii) or 3.3.5 (“Current Liability Claims”).

(c) The term “Working Capital Claims,” as used herein, means, collectively, Current Asset Claims and Current Liability Claims. The term “Working Capital Excess,” as used herein, means the amount by which the Closing Date Working Capital exceeds $5,000,000.

(d) For the avoidance of doubt, any indemnification obligation of the Seller under this Article 11 for Damages arising from Working Capital Claims shall be subject to the limitations pursuant to Sections 11.6.1, 11.6.2, 11.6.5(a) and 11.6.5(b) (and any exceptions to such limitations).

(e) By way of example, if any account receivable reflected as a Current Asset on the Final Closing Statement is later determined to be uncollectible for reasons that do not constitute a breach of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.3.3(b)(i) or 3.3.5, Seller shall have no liability for Damages under this Article 11 in connection therewith for a breach of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.3.2 or 3.3.3(a) except to the extent that such Damages, taken together with the aggregate amount of all Damages incurred in respect of all other Working Capital Claims, exceed the Working Capital Excess.

11.7. Method and Manner of Paying Claims. In the event of any claims under this Section 11 (each a “Claim”), the indemnified party shall advise the indemnifying party in writing of the amount and circumstances surrounding such Claim. With respect to liquidated Claims, if within thirty days the indemnifying party has not contested such Claim in writing, the indemnifying party will pay the full amount thereof within ten days after the expiration of such period. The term “Final Indemnity Amount” as used herein, means any amount owed by an indemnifying party hereunder with respect to any Claim that is (i) not contested within the thirty-day period set forth in the preceding sentence, (ii) agreed upon in writing by the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, (iii) determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable order or (iv) if such Claim is governed by Section 11.5 above, that is binding on the indemnifying party pursuant to the terms of Section 11.5. A Final Indemnity Amount, but not any other amount or claim, that has not been paid by the indemnifying party may be set off by the indemnified party against any amounts owed to the indemnified party by the indemnifying party. The unpaid balance of a Claim shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate announced by Citibank, N.A., as its “Base Rate” plus two percent (2%) from the date the amount of such Claim becomes a Final Indemnity Amount. This Section 11 and the Escrow Agreement shall be the exclusive remedy for breaches of this Agreement (including any covenant, obligation, representation or warranty contained in this Agreement or in any Schedule or hereto). Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 11 shall limit or restrict any rights or remedies of a party in respect of (a) claims for fraud or willful misrepresentation or (b) claims for specific performance or other injunctive relief.
