2.2 Purchase Price. The aggregate purchase price for all of the Securities (the “Purchase Price”) shall be an amount equal to:

2.3 Estimated Purchase Price; Payment of Indebtedness. On the second (2nd) Business Day before the Closing Date, the Company shall estimate in good faith the amount of the Closing Cash, the Closing Indebtedness and the Closing Working Capital, respectively, as of 11:59 p.m. on the Closing Date and deliver to Buyer a certificate setting forth such estimates (the “Closing Certificate”). The Closing Certificate shall be prepared in accordance with Section 2.4.1 with the understanding that such certificate represents good faith estimates of such amounts. As used herein, “Estimated Closing Cash,” “Estimated Closing Indebtedness” and “Estimated Closing Working Capital” mean the estimates of the Closing Cash, the Closing Indebtedness and the Closing Working Capital, respectively, set forth in the Closing Certificate and “Estimated Purchase Price” means an amount equal to the Purchase Price calculated as set forth in Section 2.2, assuming for purposes of such calculation that the Closing Cash is equal to the Estimated Closing Cash, that the Closing Indebtedness is equal to the Estimated Closing Indebtedness and that the Closing Working Capital is equal to the Estimated Closing Working Capital.

{P02534_X101.HTM;8}

therefrom, Buyer’s written calculation of the Purchase Price, and the adjustment necessary to reconcile the Estimated Purchase Price to the Purchase Price (the “Preliminary Post-Closing Adjustment”). The Closing Working Capital component of the Preliminary Adjustment Statement and the Final Adjustment Statement shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP (using the methods, policies, practices and procedures used in the preparation of the Audited Financial Statements for the year ending December 31, 2006), except that the Preliminary Adjustment Statement and the Final Adjustment Statement shall only reflect those items necessary to calculate the Closing Working Capital and, for the avoidance of doubt, the calculation of Closing Working Capital shall include outstanding checks as a component of accounts payable as reflected in Exhibit A. In preparing the Preliminary Adjustment Statement and Final Adjustment Statement: (a) any and all effects on the assets or liabilities of any of the Acquired Companies of any financing or refinancing arrangements entered into by Buyer at any time at or after the Closing Date shall be entirely disregarded; (b) it shall be assumed that the Acquired Companies and their respective lines of business shall be continued as a going concern; and (c) there shall not be taken into account the closing of the transaction or any of the plans, transactions or changes that Buyer intends to initiate or make or cause to be initiated or made at or after the Closing Date with respect to any of the Acquired Companies or its respective business or assets, or any facts or circumstances that are unique or particular to Buyer or any assets or liabilities of Buyer, or any obligation for the payment of the Purchase Price hereunder.

2.4.2 Adjustment Statement Review. Sellers’ Representative, on behalf of all Sellers, shall review the Preliminary Adjustment Statement and the Preliminary Post-Closing Adjustment and, if Sellers’ Representative believes that either was not prepared in accordance with Section 2.4.1, Sellers’ Representative shall so notify Buyer in writing no later than the thirtieth (30) day after Sellers’ Representative receipt thereof, setting forth in such notice Sellers’ Representative objection or objections to the Preliminary Adjustment Statement or the Preliminary Post-Closing Adjustment with particularity and the specific changes or adjustments which Sellers’ Representative claims are required to be made thereto in order to conform the same to the terms of Section 2.4.1. Any notice of objection delivered pursuant to this Section 2.4.2 shall (a) specify in reasonable detail the nature of any disagreement so asserted and (b) contain a commitment by Sellers’ Representative, on behalf of Sellers, to pay all adjustments owed to Buyer, if any, that are not in dispute by wire transfer of immediately available funds within two (2) Business Days of Buyer’s receipt of such notice (“Objection Notice”). Conversely, Buyer agrees to pay Sellers’ Representative, for the benefit of all Sellers, all adjustments owed to Sellers, if any, that are not in dispute by wire transfer of immediately available funds within two (2) Business Days of Buyer’s receipt of the Objection Notice. Buyer shall cause the Acquired Companies to cooperate with all representatives of Sellers (including Sellers’ Representative) in the review of the Preliminary Adjustment Statement and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, shall cause the books and records of the Acquired Companies to be made available during normal business hours to such representatives, and shall cause the necessary personnel of the Acquired Companies to provide reasonable cooperation to such representatives in their review of the Preliminary Adjustment Statement, including granting such persons access to the facilities and other assets of the Acquired Companies, in each case, upon reasonable advance notice.

2.4.3 Adjustment Statement Dispute Resolution. If Sellers’ Representative timely delivers an Objection Notice to Buyer in accordance with Section 2.4.2, and if Buyer and Sellers’

{P02534_X101.HTM;8}

Representative are unable to resolve such dispute through good faith negotiations within fifteen (15) days after Sellers’ Representative’s delivery of such Objection Notice, then, the parties shall mutually engage and submit such dispute to, and the same shall be finally resolved in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement by an accounting firm of national reputation as shall be mutually acceptable to Buyer and Sellers’ Representative (the “Independent Accountants”). Buyer and Sellers’ Representative shall have the opportunity to present their positions with respect to such disputed matters to the Independent Accountants in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.4. The Independent Accountants shall determine and report in writing to Buyer and Sellers’ Representative as to the resolution of all disputed matters submitted to the Independent Accountants and the effect of such determinations on the Preliminary Adjustment Statement and the Preliminary Post-Closing Adjustment within twenty (20) days after such submission or such longer period as the Independent Accountants may reasonably require, and such determinations shall be final, binding and conclusive as to Buyer, Sellers, Sellers’ Representative and their respective Affiliates. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountants shall be shared equally between Buyer, on the one hand, and Sellers, collectively, on the other hand.

2.4.4 Final Adjustment Statement and Post-Closing Adjustment. The Preliminary Adjustment Statement and the Preliminary Post-Closing Adjustment shall become the “Final Adjustment Statement” and the “Final Post-Closing Adjustment,” respectively, and as such shall become final, binding and conclusive upon Buyer, Sellers, Sellers’ Representative and their respective Affiliates for all purposes of this Agreement, upon the earliest to occur of the following:

(a) the mutual acceptance by Buyer and Sellers’ Representative of the Preliminary Adjustment Statement and the Preliminary Post-Closing Adjustment, respectively, with such changes or adjustments thereto, if any, as may be proposed by Sellers’ Representative and consented to by Buyer;

(b) the expiration of thirty (30) days after Sellers’ Representative’s receipt of the Preliminary Adjustment Statement and the Preliminary Post-Closing Adjustment, respectively, without timely written objection thereto by Sellers’ Representative in accordance with Section 2.4.2; or

(c) the delivery to Buyer and Sellers’ Representative by the Independent Accountants of the report of their determination of all disputed matters submitted to them pursuant to Section 2.4.3.

2.4.5 Adjustment of Purchase Price. If the Purchase Price, as finally determined in accordance with Section 2.4, is greater than the Estimated Purchase Price, then Buyer shall pay the amount of such difference (less amounts paid, if any, with respect to non-disputed adjustments pursuant to Section 2.4.2) to Sellers’ Representative for the benefit of Sellers by means of a wire transfer of immediately available funds to Sellers’ Account. If the Purchase Price, as finally determined in accordance with Section 2.4, is less than the Estimated Purchase Price, Sellers’ Representative, on behalf of Sellers, and in accordance with the allocations set forth in Section 2.5 of the Disclosure Letter, shall pay the amount of such difference (less amounts paid, if any, with respect to non-disputed adjustments pursuant to Section 2.4.2) to Buyer by means of a wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Buyer. The Final Post-

{P02534_X101.HTM;8}

Closing Adjustment, if any, shall be due and payable pursuant to this Section 2.4.5 no later than two (2) Business Days after the Preliminary Adjustment Statement and the Preliminary Post-Closing Adjustment become the Final Adjustment Statement and the Final Post-Closing Adjustment, respectively, pursuant to Section 2.4.4. For Tax purposes, any payment by Buyer or Sellers under this Agreement, including pursuant to Article 9, shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price unless a contrary treatment is required by Law.

2.5 Allocation to Sellers of the Purchase Price. The payment by Buyer of the Purchase Price (including any additional amount required pursuant to Section 2.4.5) into Sellers’ Account shall constitute payment by Buyer to each Seller and satisfaction of Buyer’s obligation to pay such amount hereunder. After such payment by Buyer, Sellers’ Representative shall be solely responsible for allocating and distributing to each Seller such Seller’s respective share of the distributable proceeds from the Sellers’ Account, as set forth on Section 2.5 of the Disclosure Letter (as to each Seller, his, her or its “Percentage Interest”), with the understanding among Sellers that distributable proceeds will be impacted by the cashless exercise of the Stock Options. Any collective obligations of Sellers, including, without limitation, payment of transaction fees and expenses, shall be allocated among Sellers in accordance with each Seller’s Percentage Interest. The portion of the distributable proceeds allocated to each Seller (net of obligations, tax withholdings and any reserves or holdbacks for indemnification obligations or otherwise established pursuant to this Agreement, or by Sellers’ Representative in its sole discretion) shall be paid and distributed to such Seller by means of a wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by such Seller to Sellers’ Representative prior to, on, or after the Closing. At the Closing, Sellers agree that Sellers’ Representative withhold from the proceeds otherwise distributable to each Seller hereunder, and pay, such Seller’s Percentage Interest of any fees or expenses incurred by or on behalf of Sellers in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby. Nothing in this Section 2.5 is intended or shall be construed to confer on any Seller or his, her or its successors, affiliates or assigns rights against Buyer related to the portion of the Purchase Price allocated to such Seller or the net proceeds received after delivery of same into Sellers’ Account.

8.1.2 Access. During the Pre-Closing Period, Buyer and its representatives (including any financing sources and their respective representatives and environmental consultants) shall continue to have reasonable access to the personnel, facilities, properties, counsel, accountants, consultants, representatives and books and records (consistent with applicable privacy Laws) of the Acquired Companies to conduct such necessary inspections as Buyer may reasonably request.

8.1.3

Satisfaction of Closing Conditions.

(a) During the Pre-Closing Period and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Sellers and the Company, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, will use commercially reasonable efforts to take or cause to be taken all actions and to do or cause to be done all things necessary under the terms of this Agreement or under applicable Laws to cause the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Article 6 and to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including using their respective commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all authorizations, consents, Permits, waivers or other approvals of all Governmental Authorities or other Persons that may be or become necessary for its execution and delivery of, and the performance of its obligations pursuant to, this Agreement, and the parties shall cooperate with each other with respect to each of the foregoing.

{P02534_X101.HTM;8}

(b) The parties hereto further covenant and agree, with respect to any threatened or pending preliminary or permanent injunction or other order, decree or ruling or statute, rule, regulation or executive order that would adversely affect the ability of the parties hereto to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, to respectively use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the entry, enactment or promulgation thereof, as the case may be. Without limiting the foregoing, each of the parties hereto shall use commercially reasonable efforts to lift or rescind any injunction or restraining order or other order adversely affecting the ability of the parties hereto to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.

(c) Each party hereto shall promptly inform the other of any material communication from the Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”), the United States Department of Justice (the “DOJ”) or any other Government Authority regarding any of the transactions contemplated hereby. If any party hereto or any Affiliate thereof receives a request for additional information or documentary material from any such Government Authority with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, then such party shall endeavor in good faith to make, or cause to be made, as soon as reasonably practicable and after consultation with the other party, an appropriate response in compliance with such request. Buyer shall advise the Company promptly in respect of any understandings, undertakings or agreements (oral or written) that Buyer proposes to make or enter into with the FTC, the DOJ or any other Government Authority in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby. The Company shall advise Buyer promptly in respect of any understandings, undertakings or agreements (oral or written) that the Company proposes to make or enter into with the FTC, the DOJ or any other Government Authority in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

(d) If any objections are asserted with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby by the FTC, the DOJ or any other Government Authority or if any suit is instituted by any Government Authority or any private party challenging any of the transactions contemplated hereby as violative of any antitrust law, each of the parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve such objections or challenge as such Government Authority or private party may have to such transactions, including to vacate, lift, reverse or overturn any order, decree or ruling or statute, rule, regulation or executive order, whether temporary, preliminary or permanent, so as to permit consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Nothing in this Section 8.1.3 or in this Agreement shall obligate Buyer to divest or hold separate (including by trust or otherwise) any assets and/or securities of any corporation to secure authorization by any Governmental Authority to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

8.1.4

Termination. This Agreement may be terminated:

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

(b) by: (i) Buyer if any of the conditions in Section 6.1 has not been satisfied as of June 15, 2007 or if satisfaction of such a condition is or becomes impossible (other than through the failure of Buyer to comply with its obligations under this Agreement) and Buyer has not waived such condition; or (ii) Sellers’ Representative if any of the conditions in Section 6.2 has not been satisfied as of June 15, 2007 or if satisfaction of such a condition is or becomes

{P02534_X101.HTM;8}

impossible (other than through the failure of Sellers or Sellers’ Representative to comply with their obligations under this Agreement) and Sellers’ Representative has not waived such condition; or

(c) by Buyer or Sellers’ Representative, if the Closing has not occurred (other than through the failure of any party seeking to terminate this Agreement to comply fully with its obligations under this Agreement) on or before June 15, 2007.

8.1.5 Update of Disclosure Letter. On or before the Closing Date, the Company may deliver to Buyer an updated Disclosure Letter with respect to any matter hereafter arising which if existing or occurring at or prior to the date of this Agreement would have been necessary to be set forth or described in any of the sections in the Disclosure Letter. Any disclosure in any updated section in the Disclosure Letter shall not be deemed to have cured any breach of any representation or warranty made in this Agreement for purposes of the indemnifications provided for in Article 9 hereof.

8.1.6 Pre-Closing Publicity. During the Pre-Closing Period, any public disclosures or announcements relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby will be made only as may be agreed upon in writing by Sellers’ Representative and Buyer, except as may be required by Law or by any Governmental Authority or the rules of any stock exchange or trading system.

8.1.7 Exclusivity. During the Pre-Closing Period, each Seller and the Company agrees that such Seller and the Company will not, and will cause the Subsidiary, and each of their respective directors, officers, managers, agents, lenders, financing sources, advisors or other representatives, including legal counsel, accountants and financial advisors, not to, directly or indirectly (a) solicit, initiate or encourage any inquiry, proposal, offer or contact from any Person (other than Buyer and its Affiliates and representatives) relating to any transaction involving the sale of any stock or other ownership interest or material assets (other than the sale of inventory in the ordinary course of business) of any of the Company or the Subsidiary or any acquisition, divestiture, merger, share or unit exchange, consolidation, redemption, financing or similar transaction involving the Company or the Subsidiary (in each case, an “Acquisition Proposal”), or (b) participate in any discussion or negotiation regarding, or furnish any information with respect to, or assist or facilitate in any manner, any Acquisition Proposal. The Company and each Seller will immediately cease and cause to be terminated any and all existing discussions and negotiations with any other Person regarding any of the foregoing.

8.1.8 Notice to Warrantholders. Each holder of the Warrants acknowledges and agrees that by their execution of this Agreement the requirement contained in the Warrant regarding notice of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement has been satisfied.

8.1.9 Specific Performance. Each of the parties hereby agree that in the event of a breach of this Agreement by any party money damages may be inadequate and the other party may have no adequate remedy at Law. It is accordingly agreed that, in addition to, and without limiting any other remedy or right any party may otherwise have, the non-breaching party or parties may seek an injunction, specific performance, or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction, without any necessity of proving damages or any requirement for the

{P02534_X101.HTM;8}

posting of a bond or other security, to enforce its rights and the breaching parties’ obligations hereunder.

8.2

Miscellaneous Covenants.

8.2.1 Post-Closing Publicity. Following the Closing, no party shall make any public disclosure or comment regarding the specific terms of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated herein without the prior approval of Buyer or Sellers’ Representative, as the case may be, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, except as may be required by Law or by any Governmental Authority or the rules of any stock exchange or trading system or reasonably necessary to enforce any rights under this Agreement. Each party shall be entitled to disclose or comment to any Person that a transaction has been consummated. In addition, nothing herein shall preclude communications or disclosures necessary to implement the provisions of this Agreement, and Buyer, Sellers, Sellers’ Representative and their respective Affiliates may make such disclosures as they may consider necessary in order to satisfy their legal or contractual obligations to their lenders, shareholders or investors, without the prior written consent of Sellers or Sellers’ Representative or Buyer, as the case may be.

8.2.2 Expenses. Buyer shall pay all fees and expenses incident to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement which are incurred by Buyer or its representatives or are otherwise expressly allocated to Buyer hereunder, and Sellers or the Acquired Companies (with the Acquired Companies only being obligated for payment of any expenses of Sellers and the Acquired Companies if such payment is made prior to the Closing or such expenses are accrued on the Final Adjustment Statement) shall pay all fees and expenses incident to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement which are incurred by Sellers or any Acquired Company (on behalf of Sellers) or their respective representatives or are otherwise expressly allocated to Sellers hereunder.

8.2.3 No Assignments. No assignment of all or any part of this Agreement or any right or obligation hereunder may be made by any party hereto without the prior written consent of all other parties hereto, and any attempted assignment without such consent shall be void and of no force or effect; provided, that (a) Buyer may assign any of its rights or delegate any of its duties under this Agreement to any controlled Affiliate of Buyer provided, further, that no such assignment shall relieve Buyer of its obligations hereunder; and (b) Buyer may assign its rights, but not its obligations, under this Agreement to any of its financing sources.

8.2.4 Confidentiality Agreement. Notwithstanding the execution of this Agreement, the parties acknowledge that the confidentiality agreement executed by Buyer, dated January 16, 2007 (the “Confidentiality Agreement”), remains in full force and effect pursuant to the terms thereof, except to the extent reasonably necessary for Buyer to enforce any of its rights under this Agreement, but shall terminate at the Closing.

8.2.5 Access by Sellers. Buyer shall, and shall cause each of the Acquired Companies to, for a period of five (5) years after the Closing Date (or such other period as may be required by Law), to retain the books and records of the Acquired Companies relating to the period prior to the Closing Date and to, during normal business hours and upon reasonable advance notice, provide Sellers’ Representative and its designees and representatives with reasonable access to such

{P02534_X101.HTM;8}

books and records and any extracts or copies thereof for the purpose of preparing Tax Returns as any such Person may reasonably request and at such Person’s expense.

8.2.6 Continuation of Indemnification. Following the Closing, Buyer agrees to cause the Acquired Companies to, in accordance with their respective Charter Documents, indemnify and hold harmless each of the present and former directors, officers, managers, partners, employees and agents of the Acquired Companies, in their capacities as such, from and against all damages, costs and expenses actually incurred or suffered in connection with any threatened or pending action, suit or proceeding at law or in equity by any Person or any arbitration or administrative or other proceeding relating to the businesses of the Acquired Companies or the status of such individual as a director, officer, manager, partner, employee or agent prior to the Closing, to the fullest extent permitted by any applicable Law. Buyer agrees not to amend or modify the Charter Documents of any of the Acquired Companies with respect to any indemnification provision or provisions, including provisions respecting the advancement of expenses, in effect on the Closing Date for the benefit of the (current or former) officers, directors, managers, partners, employees and agents (except to the extent that such amendment preserves or broadens the indemnification or other rights theretofore available to such officers, directors employees and agents). Buyer shall cause the persons serving as officers and directors of the Acquired Companies immediately prior to the Closing Date to be covered for a period of six (6) years from the Closing Date by the directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy or extended discovery insurance maintained by the Acquired Companies (provided that Buyer, the Company or the Subsidiary may substitute therefor policies of at least the same coverage and amounts and which contain terms and conditions that are, when taken as a whole, not less advantageous to such directors and officers than the terms and conditions of such existing policy) with respect to acts or omissions occurring prior to the Closing Date which were committed by such officers and directors in their capacity as such; provided, however, that the Acquired Companies shall not be obligated to make annual premium payments for such insurance to the extent such premiums exceed 150% of the annual premiums paid as of the date hereof for such insurance (the “Current Premium”). If such premium for such insurance required to be maintained pursuant to this Section would at any time exceed 150% of the Current Premium, then Buyer shall cause to be maintained policies of insurance which, in good faith determination, provide the maximum dollar loss coverage available at an annual premium equal to 150% of the Current Premium. If any of the Acquired Companies merge into, consolidate with or transfer all or substantially all of their assets to another Person, then and in each such case, Buyer shall make and shall cause the Acquired Companies to make proper provision so that the surviving or resulting corporation or the transferee in such transaction shall assume the obligations of Buyer and the Acquired Companies under this Section to the extent such assumption does not occur by operation of Law. This Section shall continue for a period of six (6) years following the Closing and is intended to benefit each director, officer, manager, partners, agent or employee who has held such capacity on or prior to the Closing Date and is now or at any time during such six-year period entitled to indemnification or advancement of expenses pursuant to any provisions contained in the Charter Documents as of the date hereof.

8.2.7 Sellers’ Representative. Sellers hereby designate Sellers’ Representative to execute any and all instruments or other documents on behalf of Sellers and to do any and all other acts or things on behalf of Sellers which Sellers’ Representative deems necessary or advisable, or which may be required pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise, in connection with the consummation

{P02534_X101.HTM;8}

of the transactions contemplated hereby and the performance of all obligations hereunder before, at or following the Closing. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Sellers’ Representative shall have the full and exclusive authority to: (a) calculate each Seller’s Percentage Interest hereunder; (b) agree with Buyer with respect to any matter or thing required or deemed necessary by Sellers’ Representative in connection with the provisions of this Agreement calling for the agreement of Sellers; (c) give and receive notices on behalf of all Sellers; (d) act on behalf of Sellers in connection with any matter as to which Sellers are or may be obligated under this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement, all in the absolute discretion of Sellers’ Representative; (e) in general, do all things and perform all acts, including without limitation executing and delivering all agreements, certificates, receipts, consents, elections, instructions, and other instruments or documents contemplated by, or deemed by Sellers’ Representative to be necessary or advisable in connection with, this Agreement; and (f) take all actions necessary or desirable in connection with the defense or settlement of any indemnification claims pursuant to Article 9 and performance of obligations under Article 2, including to withhold funds for satisfaction of expenses or other liabilities or obligations or to withhold funds for potential indemnification claims made hereunder or to agree to settlement of the Final Post Closing Adjustment. Sellers shall cooperate with Sellers’ Representative and any accountants, attorneys or other agents whom it may retain to assist in carrying out its duties hereunder. All decisions by Sellers’ Representative shall be binding upon all Sellers and no Seller shall have the right to object, dissent, protest or otherwise contest the same. Sellers’ Representative may communicate with any Seller or any other Person concerning his responsibilities hereunder, but it is not required to do so. Sellers’ Representative has a duty to serve in good faith the interests of Sellers and to perform its designated role under this Agreement, but Sellers’ Representative shall have no financial liability whatsoever to any Person relating to its service hereunder (including any action taken or omitted to be taken), except that it shall be liable for harm which it directly causes by an act of willful misconduct. Sellers shall indemnify and hold harmless Sellers’ Representative against any loss, expense (including reasonable attorney’s fees) or other liability arising out of its service as Sellers’ Representative under this Agreement, other than for harm directly caused by an act of willful misconduct. Sellers’ Representative may resign at any time by notifying Buyer and Sellers in writing. Each Seller agrees that Buyer and the Acquired Companies shall be entitled to rely conclusively and absolutely, without further inquiry, on any action taken by Sellers’ Representative on behalf of Sellers, and that each such action shall be binding on each Seller as fully as if such Seller had taken such action.

8.2.8 Further Assurances. From time to time after the Closing, at the request of Buyer, Sellers, the Company and Sellers’ Representative shall execute and deliver any further instruments and take such other action as Buyer may reasonably request to carry out the transactions contemplated hereby.

8.2.9 Termination of Security Holders’ Agreement. With respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, each Seller hereby waives the applicability of, and the rights such Seller had, has or may have under or pursuant to, the Security Holders’ Agreement, including any preemptive right or right of first refusal. Each Seller who is a party to the Security Holders’ Agreement hereby covenants and agrees with the other Sellers, the Company and Buyer that, effective immediately prior to the Closing, the Security Holders’ Agreement shall terminate and be deemed canceled in its entirety, and each Seller unconditionally and forever releases and

{P02534_X101.HTM;8}

discharges each other party to the Security Holders’ Agreement from all obligations and liabilities arising thereunder. From and after the Closing, Buyer agrees that the Company and its successors and assigns unconditionally release and forever discharge each party to the Security Holders’ Agreement from all obligations and liabilities arising thereunder. The foregoing termination of the Security Holders’ Agreement and Buyer’s covenant in this Section 8.2.9 shall be of no force or effect unless and until the Closing shall have occurred, and the Security Holders’ Agreement shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with its terms unless and until such time as the Closing has occurred.

8.2.10

Release.

(a) Effective as of the Closing, each Seller unconditionally and irrevocably and forever releases and discharges each of the Acquired Companies, their respective successors and assigns, and any present or former directors, officers, employees or agents of each of the Acquired Companies (collectively, the “Released Parties”), of and from, and hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives, any and all claims, debts, losses, expenses, proceedings, covenants, liabilities, suits, judgments, damages, actions and causes of action, obligations, accounts, and liabilities of any kind or character whatsoever, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, in contract or in to, direct or indirect, at law or in equity (collectively, “Claims”), that such Seller ever had, now has or ever may have or claim to have against any of the Released Parties, for or by reason of any matter, circumstance, event, action, inaction, omission, cause or thing whatsoever arising prior to the Closing; provided, that this release does not extend to any Claim: (i) to enforce the terms or any breach of this Agreement or any document or agreement delivered hereunder or any of the provisions set forth herein or therein; or (ii) for indemnification or contribution by a Seller in his, her or its capacity as a former officer, director, employee, agent or fiduciary of any of the Acquired Companies. In addition, nothing in this Section 8.2.10 affects any Seller’s right under any employment agreement or to recover wages, bonuses, employee benefits, and other compensatory amounts that are due to him or her in the ordinary course of business, consistent with past practice.

(b) Effective as of the Closing, each of the Acquired Companies unconditionally and irrevocably and forever releases and discharges each Seller, their respective successors and assigns, and any present or former directors, officers, employees or agents of each Seller (collectively, the “Seller Released Parties”), of and from, and hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives, any and all Claims, that such Acquired Company ever had, now has or ever may have or claim to have against any of the Seller Released Parties, for or by reason of any matter, circumstance, event, action, inaction, omission, cause or thing whatsoever arising prior to the Closing; provided, that this release does not extend to any Claim: (i) to enforce the terms or any breach of this Agreement or any document or agreement delivered hereunder or any of the provisions set forth herein or therein, (ii) against any Seller Released Party due to such Seller Released Party’s (A) violation of a criminal law; (B) involvement in a transaction from which the Seller Released Party derived an improper personal benefit; (C) fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful misconduct; (D) obligation to repay any indebtedness of such Person to any of the Acquired Companies outstanding as of the Closing Date; or (E) with respect to directors, involving any liability for which indemnification of such liability is not available under applicable Law.

{P02534_X101.HTM;8}

8.3 Acknowledgements. It is understood that ▇▇▇▇▇▇, Halter & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP shall be allowed to represent Sellers or any Seller in all matters and disputes that may arise after the date hereof, including in any such matter or dispute adverse to Buyer or the Acquired Companies.

8.4	Restrictive Covenants. 8.5

8.4.1 For a period of five (5) years after the Closing Date, each of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital Partners Fund III, L.P8.6. and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ (each a “Restricted Party”) agree (on a several basis):

(a) not to, directly or indirectly, own, manage, operate, finance, control, or participate in the ownership, management, operation, or control of, or be employed by or render services to, any Person engaged in the Business (except any Person for whom their participation in the Business constitutes less than twenty-five percent (25%) of such Person’s business); provided, however, the foregoing restriction shall not apply with respect to any purchase or holding of up to five percent of any class of securities of any Person (but without otherwise participating in the activities of such Person) if such securities are listed on any national or regional securities exchange or have been registered under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; and

(b) not to, directly or indirectly, either for itself or himself or any other Person (whether as an owner, operator, manager, consultant, officer, director, employee, investor, agent, representative or otherwise), (i) induce or attempt to induce any salaried employee of any Acquired Company to leave the employment of any Acquired Company, (ii) interfere with the relationship between any Acquired Company and any salaried employee of any Acquired Company, (iii) hire, employ, offer to hire or employ or otherwise engage as an employee, independent contractor, or otherwise, any salaried employee of any Acquired Company, or (iv) induce or attempt to induce any of the Material Customers or Material Suppliers to cease or refrain from doing business with any of the Acquired Companies; provided, however, that the restrictions in clauses (b)(i), (ii) and (iii) of this Section 8.4.1 shall not apply to any salaried employee six (6) months after such employee is no longer employed by any Acquired Company.

8.4.2 Notwithstanding anything in Section 8.4.1 to the contrary, if at any time, in any judicial proceeding, any of the restrictions stated in this Section 8.4 are found by a final order of a court of competent jurisdiction to be unreasonable or otherwise unenforceable under circumstances then existing, each Restricted Party agrees that the period, scope or geographical area, as the case may be, shall be reduced to the minimum extent necessary to enable the court to enforce the restrictions to the extent such provisions are allowable under law, giving effect to their agreement and intent that the restrictions contained herein shall be effective to the fullest extent permissible. In addition, each Restricted Party acknowledges and agrees that money damages may not be an adequate remedy for any breach or threatened breach of the provisions of this Section 8.4 and that, in such event, Buyer and its respective successors or assigns shall, in addition to any other rights and remedies existing in their favor, be entitled to specific performance, injunctive or other relief from any court of competent jurisdiction in order to enforce or prevent any violations of the provisions of this Section 8.4. Each Restricted Party hereby waives any and all defenses he or it may have on the ground of lack of jurisdiction or

{P02534_X101.HTM;8}

competence of the court to grant such specific performance, injunctive or other relief contemplated by the preceding sentence. Any injunction shall be available without the posting of any bond or other security. Each Restricted Party agrees that the restrictions contained in this Section 8.4 are reasonable in all respects and are necessary to protect the goodwill of the businesses of the Acquired Companies. The prevailing party in any proceeding arising out of this Section 8.4 shall be reimbursed by the party who does not prevail for its reasonable attorneys and experts fees and related expenses and for the costs of such proceeding.

8.4.3 In the event that any portion of this Section 8.4 shall be determined by any court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable, including by reason of its being extended over too great a period of time or too large a geographic area or over too great a range of activities, it shall be interpreted to extend only over the maximum period of time, geographic area, or range of activities as to which it may be enforceable. Each provision and part of a provision herein shall be deemed a separate and severable covenant. It is the desire and intent of the parties that the provisions of this Section 8.4 shall be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies applied in each jurisdiction in which such enforcement is sought. Accordingly, a court of competent jurisdiction is directed to modify any provision to the extent necessary to render such provision enforceable and if such cannot be lawfully done, then to severe any such portion of a provision, but only such portion of a provision, necessary to cause the remaining provisions or portions of provisions to be enforceable.

8.4.4 From and after the Closing, each Seller will treat and hold as confidential all of the Confidential Information, refrain from using or authorizing the use of any of the Confidential Information, and deliver promptly to Buyer or destroy, at the request of Buyer, all tangible embodiments (and all copies) of the Confidential Information, including electronic, that are in his or its possession or control. In the event that any Seller is requested or required pursuant to written or oral question or request for information or documents in any legal proceeding, interrogatory, subpoena, civil investigation demand, or similar process to disclose any Confidential Information, such Seller will notify Buyer promptly, except as prohibited by law or judicial process, of the request or requirement so that Buyer may seek, at Buyer’s sole cost and expense, an appropriate protective order. If, in the absence of a protective order, any Seller is, on the advice of counsel, compelled to disclose any Confidential Information to any tribunal or else stand liable for contempt, such Seller may disclose the Confidential Information to the tribunal; provided, however, that the disclosing Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, at the request and expense of Buyer, an order or other assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such portion of the Confidential Information required to be disclosed as Buyer shall designate.

ARTICLE 9

(d) The Buyer Indemnitees shall not be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement if, and to the extent that, the Losses are reflected on the Final Adjustment Statement.

(e) For purposes of determining the amount of Losses resulting from any misrepresentation or breach of a representation or warranty contained herein, all qualifications or exceptions in any representation or warranty relating to or referring to the terms “material,” “materiality,” “in all material respects,” “Material Adverse Effect” or any similar term or phrase shall be disregarded, it being the understanding of the parties that for purposes of determining Losses, the representations and warranties of the parties contained in this Agreement shall be read as if such terms and phrases were not included in them.

9.3 Indemnification of Sellers. From and after the Closing and subject to Sections 9.4, 9.5 and 9.6, Buyer shall indemnify, defend, hold harmless, pay and reimburse Sellers and their respective officers, directors, employees, stockholders, Affiliates, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Seller Indemnitees”), from and against: (a) any Losses based upon, arising out of or caused by any inaccuracy in, or breach of, any of the representations and warranties made by Buyer in Article 5; and (b) any Losses based upon, arising out of or caused by any breach or nonperformance of any covenant or obligation made or incurred by Buyer herein.

Procedures Relating to Indemnification.

9.5.1 Third-Party Claims. In order for a party (the “indemnitee”) to be entitled to any indemnification provided for under this Agreement with respect to, arising out of, or involving a claim or demand made by any Person against the indemnitee (a “Third-Party Claim”), such indemnitee must notify the party from whom indemnification hereunder is sought (the “indemnitor”) in writing of the Third-Party Claim no later than thirty (30) days after such claim or demand is first asserted. Such notice shall state in reasonable detail the amount or estimated amount of such claim, and shall identify the specific basis (or bases) for such claim, including the representations, warranties, covenants or obligations in this Agreement alleged to have been breached. Failure to give such notification shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except and only to the extent the indemnitor shall have been actually prejudiced as a result of such failure. Thereafter, the indemnitee shall deliver to the indemnitor, without undue delay, copies of all notices and documents (including court papers received by the indemnitee) constituting the Third-Party Claim so long as any such disclosure could not reasonably be expected to have an adverse effect on the attorney-client or any other privilege that may be available to the indemnitee in connection therewith.

{P02534_X101.HTM;8}

If a Third-Party Claim is made against an indemnitee, the indemnitor shall be entitled to participate, at its expense, in the defense thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (i) the indemnitor irrevocably admits to the indemnitee in writing its obligation to indemnify the indemnitee for all liabilities and obligations relating to such Third-Party Claim and (ii) the Third-Party Claim does not seek to impose any liability, obligation or restriction upon the indemnitee other than for money damages, then, the indemnitor may elect to assume and control the defense thereof with counsel selected by the indemnitor. If the indemnitor assumes such defense, the indemnitee shall have the right to participate in the defense thereof and to employ counsel, at its own expense, separate from the counsel employed by the indemnitor, it being understood that the indemnitor shall control such defense.

If the indemnitor so assumes the defense of any Third-Party Claim, all of the indemnified parties shall reasonably cooperate with the indemnitor in the defense or prosecution thereof. Such cooperation shall include, at the expense of the indemnitor, the retention and (upon the indemnitor’s request) the provision to the indemnitor of records and information which are reasonably relevant to such Third-Party Claim, and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. If the indemnitor has assumed the defense of a Third-Party Claim, (i) the indemnitee shall not admit any liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge, such Third-Party Claim without the indemnitor’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); (ii) the indemnitee shall agree to any settlement, compromise or discharge of a Third-Party Claim which (a) the indemnitor recommends, (b) by its terms unconditionally releases the indemnitee from all liabilities and obligations in connection with such Third-Party Claim, and (c) is commercially reasonable; and (iii) the indemnitor shall not, without the written consent of the indemnitee, enter into any settlement, compromise or discharge or consent to the entry of any judgment which imposes any obligation or restriction upon the indemnitee.

9.5.2 Other Claims. In the event any indemnitee should have a claim against any indemnitor under this Agreement that does not involve a Third-Party Claim, the indemnitee shall deliver notice of such claim to the indemnitor promptly following discovery of any indemnifiable Loss, but in any event not later than the last date set forth in Section 9.2 or 9.4, as the case may be, for making such claim. Failure to give such notification shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except to the extent the indemnitor shall have been actually prejudiced as a result of such failure. Such notice shall state in reasonable detail the amount or an estimated amount of such claim, and shall specify the facts and circumstances which form the basis (or bases) for such claim, and shall further specify the representations, warranties or covenants alleged to have been breached. Upon receipt of any such notice, the indemnitor shall notify the indemnitee as to whether the indemnitor accepts liability for any Loss. If the indemnitor disputes its liability with respect to such claim, as provided above, the indemnitor and the indemnitee shall attempt to resolve such dispute in accordance with the terms and provisions of Section 11.4. If the indemnitor disputes its liability with respect to such claim as provided above, the indemnitor and indemnitee shall attempt to resolve such dispute in accordance with the terms and provisions of Section 11.4.

9.6 Limitation of Remedies. Each party acknowledges and agrees that, should the Closing occur, the sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims relating to this

{P02534_X101.HTM;8}

Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (other than claims of, or causes of action arising from, criminal activity, fraud or claims of, or causes of action for which equitable relief is sought) shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article 9.
