WHEREAS, the Buyer desires to purchase from the Sellers, and the Sellers desire to sell to the Buyer, all of the Shares upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement.

AGREEMENT

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual promises herein made, and in consideration of the representations, warranties and covenants herein contained, the Buyer and the Sellers hereby agree as follows:

1. PURCHASE AND SALE OF SHARES.

1.1 Purchase and Sale of Shares. At the Closing, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Sellers will sell, transfer and deliver to the Buyer, and the Buyer will purchase from the Sellers, the Shares free and clear of any and all Encumbrances.

1.2 Purchase Price; Distribution of Positive Net Book Value.

1.2.1 As consideration for the Shares, the Buyer shall pay the Sellers an aggregate amount of Sixteen Million Dollars and no cents ($16,000,000.00) (the “Purchase Price”), consisting of the sum of: (i) cash in an amount equal to Eleven Million Eight Hundred Thousand Dollars and no cents ($11,800,000.00) as adjusted pursuant to Section 1.3 (the “Cash Purchase Price”), (ii) such number of shares of restricted Class A common stock, par value $0.00067 per share, issued pursuant to the PBSJ Corporation 2008 Employee Restricted Stock Plan of the Buyer, as amended (the “Buyer Common Stock”), calculated by dividing Three Million Dollars and no cents ($3,000,000.00) by the Valuation Price (and rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares evenly divisible by three), (iii) escrowed funds in the amount of Two Hundred Thousand Dollars and no cents ($200,000.00) (the “Escrow

Amount”) and (iv) such number of shares of escrowed Buyer Common Stock issued pursuant to the PBSJ Corporation 2008 Employee Restricted Stock Plan, as amended, and calculated by dividing One Million Dollars and no cents ($1,000,000.00) by the Valuation Price (and rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares evenly divisible by three) (the “Escrowed Shares”); provided, however, that in no event will the Buyer issue fewer than 100,000 shares of the Buyer Common Stock to Sellers in connection with this Section 1.1.1 (even if the Valuation Price exceeds $40.00 per share) nor more than 200,000 shares of the Buyer Common Stock to the Sellers in connection with this Section 1.1.1 (even if the Valuation Price is below $20.00 per share) In addition, and subject, to the transfer restrictions imposed by any applicable Legal Requirements, including the 1933 Act, the Organizational Documents of the Buyer and the PBSJ Corporation 2008 Employee Restricted Stock Plan, as amended, the Buyer Common Stock shall also be subject to the following transfer restrictions: (i) prior to the 2^nd anniversary of the Closing Date, no shares of Buyer Common Stock may be transferred by any of the Sellers; (ii) commencing on the 2^nd anniversary of the Closing Date through the day immediately preceding the 3^rd anniversary of the Closing Date, each Seller may transfer up to 50% of the Buyer Common Stock granted to him or her as part of the Purchase Price pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; and (iii) commencing on the 3^rd anniversary of the Closing Date and thereafter, each Seller may transfer all of the Buyer Common Stock held by him or her. The Escrowed Shares shall also be subject to the terms and restrictions of the Escrow Agreement. This Agreement shall also constitute an Award Agreement under the PBSJ Corporation 2008 Employee Restricted Stock Plan, as amended, and, except for the transfer restrictions provided above, the Buyer Common Stock shall not be subject to any risks of forfeiture under the PBSJ Corporation 2008 Employee Restricted Stock Plan, as amended. In addition to the Purchase Price, the Buyer agrees that the Sellers, as a condition to Closing shall have the right, prior to or at the Closing, to cause the Company to distribute to the Sellers a cash distribution equal to the amount by which the Estimated NBV of the Company exceeds zero (the “Required Distribution”). To the extent that the Company does not have sufficient cash to effect the Required Distribution, the Buyer agrees that (i) the Sellers shall have the right to cause the Company to borrow from the Company’s existing line of credit and to use such funds to effect the Required Distribution and (ii) the Sellers shall not be required to repay amounts borrowed on the Company’s line of credit to the extent such amounts were used to effect the Required Distribution.

1.3 Purchase Price Adjustment.

1.3.1 The Sellers acknowledge that the amount of the Purchase Price is based, in addition to the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, on the net book value of the Company as of the Closing Date being zero (the “Required NBV”).

1.3.2 Not later than three (3) nor sooner than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall prepare and deliver to Buyer a certificate in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Buyer (the “Estimated Closing Certificate”), executed by each of the Sellers, certifying (A) its good faith preparation of an attached estimated balance sheet of the Company as of the Closing Date (the “Estimated Closing Balance Sheet”), which shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP, including the estimated accrual as of the Closing Date of all loss contingencies involving losses that are “probable”, determined in accordance with FASB No. 5 “Accounting for Contingencies” or any other FASB or APB applicable announcements (“FASB No. 5 Accruals”) (which include

-2-

without limitation those accruals set forth on Schedule 2.5.2 hereto), consistent with the past practices of the Company (B) its good faith estimate of the Company’s actual net book value as of the Closing Date (the “Estimated NBV”). The Sellers shall also provide the Buyer with copies of all work papers and other documents and data used to prepare the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet and any other documents reasonably requested by Buyer. If the Buyer agrees with the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet and the Estimated NBV set forth in the Estimated Closing Certificate, the Buyer shall notify the Sellers that they are in agreement with such amounts. If the Buyer does not agree with the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet and the Estimated NBV set forth in the Estimated Closing Certificate, the Buyer shall notify the Sellers of such disagreement and the Buyer and the Sellers shall work together to resolve any such disagreements.

1.3.3 As soon as practicable following the Closing, the Company shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, an unaudited balance sheet of the Company as of the Closing Date (the “Closing Balance Sheet”), which shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP (including FASB No. 5 Accruals) consistent with the past practices of the Company and shall have the Closing Balance Sheet audited by Ernst & Young, LLP, or other similar auditing firm selected by the Buyer and approved by the Sellers, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld (the “Auditor”). The Sellers shall be jointly and severally responsible for all fees and expenses of the Auditor incurred by the Buyer and the Company in connection with the audit of the Closing Balance Sheet, but not to exceed $25,000. The Auditor shall complete the audit of the Closing Balance Sheet no later than sixty (60) days following the Closing Date. As soon as practicable following the completion of the audit, the Company shall deliver to the Sellers the audited Closing Balance Sheet, together with a closing statement (the “Closing Statement”) setting forth the Company’s actual net book value as set forth in the audited Closing Balance Sheet (such net book value as finally determined in accordance with this Section 1.3, the “Actual NBV”) and any proposed Adjustment Amount.

1.3.4 The Sellers shall complete their review of the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Statement within fifteen (15) days after delivery thereof by the Company. If the Sellers object to the Closing Balance Sheet or the Closing Statement, the Sellers shall, on or before the last day of such 15-day period, so inform the Buyer in writing (a “Sellers’ Objection”), setting forth a specific description of the basis of the Sellers’ determination and the adjustments to the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Statement that the Sellers believe should be made. If no Sellers’ Objection is received by the Buyer on or before the last day of such 15-day period, then the Closing Balance Sheet and Closing Statement delivered by the Buyer shall be final. The Buyer shall have fifteen (15) days from its receipt of the Sellers’ Objection to review and respond to the Sellers’ Objection.

1.3.5 If the Sellers and the Buyer are unable to resolve all of their disagreements with respect to the proposed adjustments set forth in the Sellers’ Objection within 15 days following the completion of the Buyer’s review of the Sellers’ Objection, they shall refer any remaining disagreements to the CPA Firm which, acting as experts and not as arbitrators, shall determine, on the basis set forth in and in accordance with this Section 1.3, and only with respect to the remaining differences so submitted, whether and to what extent, if any, the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Statement requires adjustment. The Buyer and the Sellers shall instruct the CPA Firm to deliver its written determination to the Buyer and the Sellers no later than 30 days after the remaining differences

-3-

underlying the Sellers’ Objection are referred to the CPA Firm along with the final Closing Balance Sheet and Closing Statement containing the Actual NBV. The CPA Firm’s determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Buyer and the Sellers. In resolving any disputed item, the CPA Firm may not assign a value to any disputed item that is greater than the greatest value claimed by either party or less than the smallest value claimed by either party for the item. The fees and disbursements of the CPA Firm shall be borne equally by the Buyer and the Sellers. The Buyer and the Sellers shall make readily available to the CPA Firm all relevant books and records and any work papers (including those of the parties’ respective accountants, to the extent permitted by such accountants) relating to the Closing Balance Sheet, the Sellers’ Objection and all other items reasonably requested by the CPA Firm in connection therewith.

1.3.6 Cash Purchase Price Adjustment.

(a) Upon the final determination of the Actual NBV as determined in accordance with this Section 1.3, the Cash Purchase Price will be reduced on a dollar-for-dollar basis by the amount, if any, by which the Actual NBV is less than the Estimated NBV (the “Negative Adjustment Amount”) and the Cash Purchase Price will be increased on a dollar-for-dollar basis by the amount, if any, by which the Actual NBV is more than the Estimated NBV (the “Positive Adjustment Amount”, and collectively with a Negative Adjustment, an “Adjustment Amount”).

(b) If there is a Negative Adjustment Amount, then the Escrow Agent shall be directed to (i) disburse to the Buyer from the Escrow Amount the Negative Adjustment Amount within three (3) Business Days from the date of such determination and (ii) following the disbursement of the Negative Adjustment Amount to Buyer, disburse the remaining Escrow Amount, if any, to the Sellers (such payment to be allocated among the Sellers on a pro rata basis based on each Seller’s pre-closing ownership percentage interest in the Company as set forth on Schedule 1.3.6); each such disbursement to be made in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement.

(c) If the Escrow Amount is less than the Negative Adjustment Amount, the Sellers shall pay the difference between the Negative Adjustment Amount and the Escrow Amount in cash to Buyer within three (3) Business Days from the date of such determination. The Sellers shall be jointly and severally liable for the payment, if any, required to be made pursuant to this Section 1.3.6(c).

(d) If there is a Positive Adjustment Amount, then (i) the Buyer shall pay to the Sellers in cash (such payment to be allocated among the Sellers on a pro rata basis based on each Seller’s pre-closing ownership percentage interest in the Company as set forth on Schedule 1.3.6) the Positive Adjustment Amount within three (3) Business Days from the date of such determination and (ii) the Escrow Agent shall be directed to disburse to the Sellers the Escrow Amount (such payment to be allocated among the Sellers on a pro rata basis based on each Seller’s pre-closing ownership percentage interest in the Company as set forth on Schedule 1.3.6) in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement.

however, that the Interim Financials omit the interim accruals and adjustments described on Schedule 2.5.2, and (c) fairly present the financial position of the Company as at the respective dates thereof and the results of the operations of the Company for the respective periods covered thereby. The Company’s utilization of the percentage of completion methodology is in conformity with GAAP. To Sellers’ Knowledge, the aggregate gross profit and gross profit percentage for jobs currently in process have been estimated in good faith and in a manner such that the aggregate gross profit and gross profit percentage achieved by the Company upon completion will not materially adversely change from the estimates as of the date hereof. The gross profit and gross profit percentage of jobs currently in process have been properly recognized in accordance with GAAP. The Financials contain adequate reserves for the realization of all Assets and for all reasonably anticipated Liabilities in accordance with GAAP.

-37-

intended to provide. The Sellers acknowledge and agree that the covenants contained in this Section 7.4 are essential elements of this Agreement and that but for these covenants the Buyer would not have agreed to purchase the Shares.

7.4.3 Injunction. The Sellers agree that a violation of the terms, provisions, covered obligations, duties and conditions described in this Agreement will give rise to the Buyer’s causes of action (including breach of this Agreement) against Sellers for, among other relief, issuance of injunctive relief, issuance of a temporary restraining order, recovery of damages and recovery of the Buyer’s costs, attorneys’ fees, and expert witness fees. The Sellers further agree that it is difficult to calculate the amount and extent of any damages caused by such a violation and such a violation threatens to injure or actually does injure the Buyer and the Company’s property.

7.4.5 Severability.

-38-

From and after the Closing Date, upon the request of the Sellers or the Buyer, each party will do, execute, acknowledge and deliver all such further acts, assurances, deeds, assignments, transfers, conveyances and other instruments and papers as may be reasonably required or appropriate to carry out the Contemplated Transactions. The Sellers will not take any action that is designed or intended to have the effect of discouraging any employee, lessor, licensor, supplier, distributor or customer of the Company or other Person with whom the Company has a relationship from maintaining the same relationship with the Company after the Closing as it maintained prior to the Closing.

7.6 Cooperation Regarding Financial Statements. The Sellers shall use their best efforts to assist and cooperate with the efforts of the Buyer and its accountants and auditors to prepare and audit any financial statements (including but not limited to pro forma financial statements) that the Buyer will be required to prepare, file or furnish pursuant to any applicable securities laws or exchange requirements, including the 1933 Act, the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder, or under any other applicable Laws.

7.7 Bonus Pool. Following the Closing, the Buyer agrees to make available to the Company a bonus pool of that number of shares of Buyer Common Stock, calculated by dividing One Million Dollars and no cents ($1,000,000.00) by the Valuation Price (and rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares) (the “Bonus Pool”) to incentivize the employees of the Company identified on Schedule 7.7 (the “Designated Employees”) to remain employed with the Company after the Closing; provided, however, that in no event will the Buyer make available fewer than 25,000 shares of the Buyer Common Stock to Designated Employees in connection with this Section 7.7 (even if the Valuation Price exceeds $40.00 per share) nor more than 50,000 shares of the Buyer Common Stock to the Designated Employees in connection with this Section 7.7 (even if the Valuation Price is below $20.00 per share). The amount of shares of Buyer Common Stock to which each Designated Employee is entitled to is set forth next to such Designated Employee’s name on Schedule 7.7. The Buyer Common Stock to be granted under the Bonus Pool will be granted pursuant to, and subject to the terms and conditions of, The PBSJ Corporation 2008 Employee Restricted Stock Plan, as amended, and the related award agreement and will vest three (3) years after the Closing Date, provided that such Designated Employee is still employed by the Company at the time of vesting. The Buyer Common Stock granted under the Bonus Pool will be subject to the transfer restrictions imposed by all applicable Legal Requirements, including the 1933 Act and the Organizational Documents of the Buyer.

7.8 Certain Consents. If any consent set forth on Schedule 2.31 is not obtained before or on the Closing Date and the Closing is nevertheless consummated, Sellers agree to continue to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all such consents as have not been obtained prior to such date.

Except for Tax Losses under Section 9.3, after the Closing, the right of indemnification under this Section 8 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy available to any party for any claim or cause of action arising under this Agreement or arising out of any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or provision of this Agreement or otherwise; provided, however, that this exclusive remedy does not preclude a party from bringing an action for specific performance or other equitable remedy to require a party to perform its obligations under this Agreement. Each party expressly waives any rights it may have to make a claim against the other pursuant to any constitutional, statutory, or common Law authorities. The provisions of this Section 8.12 shall not apply to claims arising out of or relating to fraud.

9. TAX MATTERS.

9.1 Representations and Obligations Regarding Taxes. The Sellers jointly and severally represent and warrant to and agree with the Buyer as follows, in each case except to the extent set forth on Schedule 9 (and for purposes of this Section 9, the “Company” includes any corporation or other entity that at any time has been a Subsidiary of the Company (although certain representations are made in respect of the status of Subsidiaries as qualified subchapter S subsidiaries within the meaning of Section 1361(b)(3)(B) of the Code):

9.1.1 The Company has timely filed all Tax Returns that it was required to file. All of those Tax Returns were correct and complete in all material respects. Schedule 9.1.1 lists all Federal, state, local and foreign Tax Returns filed with respect to the Company for taxable periods ending after December 31, 2001. The Company has delivered to the Buyer correct and complete copies of all Federal income Tax Returns and all state and local income or franchise Tax returns for each taxable period ending after December 31, 2001. All material elections with respect to Taxes affecting the Company are disclosed on or attached to a Tax Return of the Company.

9.1.2 Except as set forth in the second succeeding sentence, all Taxes owed by the Company (whether or not shown on any Tax Return and whether or not any Tax Return was required) have been paid, and the Company has made adequate accrual in its Financials for all Taxes through the date hereof not yet due and payable and will have made adequate accrual in the Closing Balance Sheet for all Taxes through the Closing Date not yet due and payable. The Company has withheld and paid all Taxes required to have been withheld and paid in connection with amounts paid or owing to any employee, independent contractor, creditor, stockholder or other third party. The unpaid Taxes of the Company (i) did not, as of the most recent fiscal month end, exceed the reserve for Tax liability (rather than any reserve for deferred Taxes established to reflect timing differences between book and Tax income) set forth on the face of the Most Recent Balance Sheet (rather than in any notes thereto) and (ii) will not exceed that reserve as adjusted for the passage of time through the Closing Date in accordance with the past custom and practice of the Company in filing its Tax Returns.

9.1.3 The Company is not currently the beneficiary of any extension of time within which to file any Tax Return. All private letter rulings issued by the IRS to the Company (and any corresponding ruling or determination of any state, local or foreign taxing authority) have been disclosed on Schedule 9.1.3, and there are no pending requests for any rulings (or corresponding determinations). There is no power of attorney with respect to any Tax executed or filed with any taxing authority.

-44-

9.1.4 There are no liens on any of the Assets that arose in connection with any failure (or alleged failure) to pay any Tax, except for liens for Taxes not yet due. The Company has not waived any statute of limitations in respect of Taxes or agreed to any extension of time with respect to a Tax assessment or deficiency which waiver or extension has not since expired. Schedule 9.1.4 lists those Tax Returns filed with respect to the Company for taxable periods ended on or after December 31, 2001 that have been audited or that have been the subject of any written or unwritten notice of any audit, examination, investigation or other proceeding. The Company has delivered to the Buyer correct and complete copies of all audit, examination, revenue agent’s and other reports of, and any closing agreements with, any taxing jurisdiction with respect to taxable periods ended on or after December 31, 2001. No issue relating to Taxes has been raised in writing by a taxing authority during any pending audit or examination, and no issue relating to Taxes was raised in writing by a taxing authority in any completed audit or examination, that reasonably can be expected to recur in a later taxable period. Except as noted on Schedule 9.1.4, there is no dispute or claim concerning any Tax liability of the Company either (i) claimed or raised by any taxing authority in writing or (ii) as to which any of the directors or officers (or employees responsible for Tax matters) of the Company has knowledge. No claim has ever been made by a taxing authority in a jurisdiction where the Company does not file Tax Returns that it is or may be subject to taxation by that jurisdiction or that it satisfies or may satisfy the nexus requirements to be subject to taxation by that jurisdiction. Except to the extent set forth on Schedule 9.1.4, no director or officer (or employee responsible for Tax matters) of the Company has any reason to believe that any taxing authority will assert liability for any additional Taxes for any period for which Tax Returns have been filed.

9.1.5 The Company has not made any payments, is not obligated to make any payments and is not a party to any agreement that under certain circumstances could obligate it to make any payments that will not be deductible under section 280G of the Code or that would give rise to any obligation to indemnify any Person for any excise tax payable pursuant to section 4999 of the Code. The Company has not entered into any sale leaseback or leveraged lease transaction that fails to satisfy the requirements of Revenue Procedure 75-21 or Revenue Procedure 2001-28 (or similar provisions of foreign Law) or any safe harbor lease transaction, and the Company is not a lessor or lessee of any tangible property located outside the United States. None of the property of the Company is tax-exempt use property within the meaning of section 168(h) of the Code, is property that is required to be treated as being owned by any other Person pursuant to the safe harbor lease provisions of former section 168(f)(8) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, as amended, or is property that directly or indirectly secures any debt the interest on which is exempt from federal income tax pursuant to section 103 of the Code. The Company does not own any property that is subject to a “section 467 rental agreement” as defined in section 467 of the Code. The Company has not distributed the stock of another entity, or had its stock distributed by another entity, in a transaction that was intended to be or that purported to be governed in whole or in part by section 355 or section 361 of the Code. No indebtedness of the Company consists of “corporate acquisition indebtedness” within the meaning of section 279 of the Code. The Company does not have a non-accountable expense reimbursement arrangement within the meaning of Treasury regulation section 1.62-2(c). The Company has not made any consent to the application of section 341(f)(2) with respect to any asset held or to be acquired by the Company.

-45-

9.1.6 The Company has not been a United States real property holding corporation within the meaning of section 897(c)(2) of the Code during the applicable period specified in section 897(c)(1)(A)(ii) of the Code. The Company does not have, and has not had, a permanent establishment in any foreign country, as defined in any applicable income tax treaty to which the United States and the foreign country are parties or under the Law of the foreign country. The Company does not have an overall foreign loss within the meaning of section 904(f) of the Code.

9.1.7 The Company is not a party to any Tax allocation or sharing agreement. The Company (i) has not been a member of an Affiliated Group filing a consolidated Federal income Tax Return and (ii) has no liability for the Taxes of any Person under Treasury regulation section 1.1502-6 (or any similar provision of state, local or foreign Law), as a transferee or successor, by contract or otherwise. The Company is not a party to any joint venture, partnership or other arrangement or contract that could be treated as a partnership for Federal income tax purposes.

9.1.8 The Company has not been and will not be subject to any penalty under section 6662 of the Code with respect to its Tax Returns. The Company has not engaged in any “listed transaction” or “reportable transaction” within the meaning of section 6707A(c) of the Code or Treasury regulation section 1.6011-4(b) or any transaction (i) that was marketed to the Company in writing as a transaction that is intended to generate substantial Tax benefits and (ii) with respect to which the Company has paid a promoter of the transaction total fees in excess of $100,000.

9.1.9 The Company has been a validly electing S corporation (within the meaning of sections 1361 and 1362 of the Code) at all times since September 1, 1986, and any corporate Subsidiary of the Company has been a qualified subchapter S subsidiary within the meaning of Section 1361(b)(3)(B) of the Code at all times the Company has owned any of its shares. Schedule 9.1.9 identifies each Subsidiary that is a qualified subchapter S subsidiary. Neither the Company nor any qualified subchapter S subsidiary of the Company has, in the past ten years, (A) acquired any asset from another corporation in a transaction in which the Company’s Tax basis for the acquired assets was determined, in whole or in part, by reference to the Tax basis of the acquired assets (or any other property) in the hands of the transferor or (B) acquired the stock of any corporation that is a qualified subchapter S subsidiary.

9.1.10 The Company will not be required (and no taxing authority is proposing that the Company be required) to include any item of income in, or exclude any item of deduction from, taxable income for any taxable period (or portion thereof) ending after the Closing Date as a result of any (i) change in method of accounting for a taxable period ending on or prior to the Closing Date (and no taxing authority has proposed any change in method of accounting), (ii) intercompany transactions or any excess loss account described in Treasury regulations under Section 1502 of the Code (or any corresponding or similar provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law), (iii) installment sale or open transaction disposition made on or prior to the Closing Date, (iv) a closing agreement as described in section 7121 of the Code (or any corresponding or similar provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law), (v) the use of the cash method of accounting; or (vi) any prepaid amount received on or prior to the Closing Date.

-46-

9.1.11 The transfer of the Shares to the Buyer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement will not result in any Tax liability to the Company or result in a reduction of the amount of any net operating loss, net operating loss carryover, net capital loss, net capital loss carryover, Tax credit, Tax credit carryover, excess charitable contribution or basis of property that otherwise would be available to the Company by reason or as a result of any deferred intercompany transaction, excess loss account or otherwise.

9.1.12 Each Seller has delivered to the Buyer as of the Closing Date a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit 9.1.12, signed under penalties of perjury and notarized, stating that for U.S. federal income tax purposes and specifically for purposes of sections 897 and 1445 of the Code that such Seller is not a nonresident alien.

9.1.13 Each Seller, and each Person who was a shareholder of the Company as of the Closing, has delivered to the Buyer an IRS Form 8023 and all other forms required of such Seller or Person in respect of making a Section 338(h)(10) Election in all jurisdictions in which any such election may be made, as contemplated by Section 9.2.3 of this Agreement, each completely and properly filled out and executed by such Seller or Person.

9.2 Covenants With Respect To Taxes.

9.2.1 The Company shall grant to the Buyer or its designees access at all reasonable times to all of the Company’s books and records (including Tax workpapers, Tax Returns and correspondence with taxing authorities), including the right to take extracts therefrom and make copies thereof, to the extent the books and records relate to taxable periods ending on or prior to or that include the Closing Date. The Buyer shall (i) grant to the Sellers access at all reasonable times to all of the Company’s books and records (including Tax workpapers, Tax Returns and correspondence with taxing authorities), including the right to take extracts therefrom and make copies thereof, to the extent that the books and records relate to the operations of the Company during taxable periods ending on or prior to or that include the Closing Date, and (ii) otherwise cooperate with the Sellers in connection with any audit of Taxes that relate to the business of the Company prior to Closing, in each case to the extent relevant to the Sellers’ indemnification obligations under Section 9.3 hereof.

9.2.2 Neither the Sellers nor the Company will take or allow any action that would result in the termination of the Company’s status as a validly electing S corporation (or the termination of any Subsidiary’s status as a qualified subchapter S subsidiary) prior to the sale of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement.

9.2.3 At the Buyer’s option, the Sellers and the Buyer shall join in making an election under section 338(h)(10) of the Code (and any corresponding elections under state, local and foreign Tax Law) (collectively, a “Section 338(h)(10) Election”) with respect to the purchase and sale of the Company’s stock, and the Sellers shall deliver at the Closing all of the forms and other documents, fully and properly executed, required of them in order to make a Section 338(h)(10) Election. Buyer shall pay any Tax imposed on the Company attributable to the making of the Section 338(h)(10) Election, including any Tax imposed under section 1374 of the Code

-47-

and (ii) any state, local or foreign Tax imposed on the Company, and Sellers shall indemnify Buyer and the Company against any adverse consequences arising in connection with any of those Taxes. The Buyer will pay to each Seller, as additional Purchase Price, an amount in cash equal to the increase, if any, in the income Taxes payable by the Seller by reason of a Section 338(h)(10) Election being made, that amount to be equal to the excess, if any, of the income Tax that would have been payable by the Seller for the taxable year in which the Closing Date occurs, taking into account the consequences of Section 338(h)(10) Election, over the amount of income Tax payable by the Seller for that year computed in the same manner but assuming that the Seller had sold its Shares and no Section 338(h)(10) Election had been made. The Buyer shall pay those amounts to the Sellers on April 15^th of the calendar year after the calendar year in which the Closing Date occurs (or, if that April 15^th is not a Business Day, on the last Business Day immediately prior thereto). If any Seller files for any extension of time in which to file its Tax Return for the year in which the Closing Date occurs, the amount to which the Seller is entitled pursuant to the third sentence of this Section 9.2.3 shall be recomputed based on the information in the Tax Return filed by the Seller, and an adjusting payment shall be made by the Seller or the Buyer to reflect any change between the amount the Buyer initially paid the Seller and the amount to which the Seller is entitled based on that recomputation. That payment shall be made no later than the date on which the Seller files its Tax Return. The Buyer, the Company and the Sellers agree that the Purchase Price and the liabilities of the Company will be allocated to the assets of the Company for all purposes (including Tax and financial accounting) in a manner consistent with sections 338 and 1060 of the Code and the Treasury regulations thereunder. The Buyer, the Company and the Sellers shall file all Tax Returns (including amended returns and claims for refund) and information in a manner consistent with that allocation.

9.2.4 (a) Tax Periods Ending on or Before the Closing Date. The Sellers shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed all Tax Returns for the Company for all periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date which are filed after the Closing Date. All such Tax Returns shall be prepared in accordance with past practice insofar as they relate to the Company. The Sellers shall permit the Buyer to review and comment on each such Tax Return prior to filing. The Sellers shall reimburse the Buyer for Taxes of the Sellers and the Company with respect to such periods within five (5) days after any payment by the Buyer or the Company of such Taxes to the extent such Taxes are not accrued as a liability on the Closing Balance Sheet and used to compute net working capital.

(b) Tax Periods Beginning Before and Ending After the Closing Date. The Buyer shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed any Tax Returns of the Company for Tax periods which begin before the Closing Date and end after the Closing Date (“Straddle Tax Returns”). The Buyer shall permit the Sellers to review and comment on each such Tax Return prior to filing. Any portion of any Tax which must be paid in connection with the filing of a Straddle Tax Return, to the extent attributable to any period or portion of a period ending on or before the Closing Date, shall be referred to herein as “Pre-Closing Taxes.” The Sellers shall pay to the Buyer an amount equal to the Pre-Closing Taxes due with any Straddle Tax Returns (to the extent such Taxes are not accrued as a liability on the Closing Balance

-48-

Sheet used to compute net working capital) within five (5) days after the date the Buyer is required to cause to be paid the related Tax liability. Where the Pre-Closing Taxes involve a period which begins before and ends after the Closing Date, such Pre-Closing Taxes shall be calculated as though the taxable year of the Company terminated as of the close of business on the Closing Date; provided, however, that in the case of a tax not based on income, receipts, proceeds, profits or similar items, Pre-Closing Taxes shall be equal to the amount of tax for the taxable period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of days from the beginning of the taxable period through the Closing Date and the denominator of which shall be the number of days in the taxable period. All determinations necessary to give effect to the foregoing allocations shall be made in a manner consistent with prior practice of the Company.

9.2.5 The Buyer, the Company and the Sellers shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns and any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes. That cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other party’s request) the provision of records and information reasonably relevant to any such audit, litigation or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. The Company, the Sellers and the Buyer agree (A) to retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Company relating to any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until expiration of the statute of limitations (and, to the extent notified by the Buyer or the Sellers, any extensions thereof) of the respective taxable periods, and to abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any taxing authority, and (B) to give the other party reasonable written notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any such books and records and, if the other party so requests, the Company or the Sellers, as the case may be, shall allow the other party to take possession of those books and records.

9.2.6 Sellers shall have the right to handle and control any Tax proceeding related to a Tax year of the Company ending on or before the Closing Date which may have the effect of increasing any of Sellers’ Tax liability for any Tax period beginning before the Closing and (i) the Sellers shall allow the Company, the Buyer and their counsel to participate at the Company’s expense in any audit of the Company’s federal income Tax Returns to the extent that such returns relate to the Company; (ii) the Sellers shall comply with the provisions of Section 9.3.3(d), and (iii) if Buyer is handling and in control of the Tax proceeding, then Buyer shall not settle or compromise any such proceeding without the Sellers’ prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld).

9.3 Indemnification for Taxes.

9.3.1 The Sellers hereby agree to indemnify, jointly and severally, the Buyer and its Affiliates, including, after the Closing, the Company (each herein sometimes referred to as an “Indemnified Taxpayer”) against, and agree to protect, save and hold harmless each Indemnified Taxpayer from, any and all claims, damages, deficiencies and losses and all expenses, including, without limitation, attorneys’, accountants’ and experts’ fees and disbursements (all herein referred to as “Tax Losses”), resulting from:

(a) A claim by any taxing authority for (A) any Taxes of the Company or the Sellers allocable to any period ending on or prior to the Closing Date or allocable to any period that begins before and ends after the Closing Date to the extent attributable to the portion of the period ending on the Closing Date, except to the extent the liability for those Taxes is included in computing net working capital, and (B) any Taxes of the Company or any corporation that is or was a member of an Affiliated Group of which the Company was or is a member, or any liability of any of the foregoing for the Taxes of any Person, whether as a transferee or successor, by contract or otherwise;

-49-

(b) A claim by any taxing authority for any Taxes arising from or occasioned by the sale of the Company’s capital stock pursuant to this Agreement; or

9.3.2 Subject to the resolution of any Tax contest pursuant to Section 9.3.3(a), upon notice from the Buyer or the Company to the Sellers that an Indemnified Taxpayer is entitled to an indemnification payment for a Tax Loss pursuant to Section 9.3.1, the Sellers thereupon shall pay to the Indemnified Taxpayer an amount that, net of any Taxes imposed on the Indemnified Taxpayer with respect to the payment, will indemnify and hold the Indemnified Taxpayer harmless from the Tax Loss.

9.3.3 (a) If a claim shall be made by any taxing authority that, if successful, would result in the indemnification of an Indemnified Taxpayer, the Indemnified Taxpayer shall promptly notify the Sellers in writing of that fact; provided, however, that any failure to give the notice will not waive any rights of the Indemnified Taxpayer.

(b) The Sellers shall have the right to defend the Indemnified Taxpayer against the claim with counsel of their choice satisfactory to the Indemnified Taxpayer so long as (A) the Sellers notify the Indemnified Taxpayer in writing within 15 days after the Indemnified Taxpayer has given notice of the claim that the Sellers will indemnify the Indemnified Taxpayer from and against the entirety of any Tax Losses the Indemnified Taxpayer may suffer resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by the claim, (B) the Sellers provide the Indemnified Taxpayer with evidence reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Taxpayer that the Sellers will have the financial resources to defend against the claim and fulfill their indemnification obligations hereunder, (C) if requested by the Indemnified Taxpayer, the Sellers provide to the Indemnified Taxpayer a written position of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Taxpayer, that there exists a reasonable basis for the Company to prevail in that contest, (D) if the Indemnified Taxpayer is requested to

-50-

pay the Tax claimed and xxx for a refund, the Sellers shall have advanced to the Indemnified Taxpayer, on an interest free basis, the full amount the Indemnified Taxpayer is required to pay, and (E) the Sellers conduct the defense of the claim actively and diligently.

(c) Subject to the provisions of paragraph (b) above, the Sellers shall be entitled to prosecute the contest to a determination in a court of initial jurisdiction, and if the Sellers shall reasonably request, to a determination in an appellate court provided that, if requested by the Indemnified Taxpayer, the Sellers shall provide to the Indemnified Taxpayer a written position of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Taxpayer, that there exists a reasonable basis for the Company to prevail on that appeal.

(d) The Sellers shall not be entitled to settle any claim relating to Taxes if the settlement of, or an adverse judgment with respect to, the claim would be likely, in the reasonable and good faith judgment of the Indemnified Taxpayer, to cause the liability for any Tax of the Indemnified Taxpayer or of any Affiliate of the Indemnified Taxpayer for any taxable period ending after the Closing Date to increase (including, without limitation, by making any election or taking any action having the effect of making any election, by deferring the inclusion of any amount in income or by accelerating the deduction of any amount or the claiming of any credit) or to take a position that, if applied to any taxable period ending after the Closing Date, would be adverse to the interest of the Indemnified Taxpayer or any Affiliate of the Indemnified Taxpayer.

(e) If, after actual receipt by the Indemnified Taxpayer of an amount advanced by the Sellers pursuant to paragraph (b)(D) above, the extent of the liability of the Indemnified Taxpayer with respect to the indemnified matter shall be established by the judgment or decree of a court that has become final or a binding settlement with an administrative agency having jurisdiction thereof that has become final, the Indemnified Taxpayer shall promptly pay to the Sellers any refund received by or credited to the Indemnified Taxpayer with respect to the indemnified matter (together with any interest paid or credited thereon by the taxing authority and any recovery of legal fees from the taxing authority); provided, however, that the Indemnified Taxpayer shall have been indemnified and held harmless from all Tax Losses by reason of any indemnification payments retained by the Indemnified Taxpayer net of any Taxes imposed on the Indemnified Taxpayers with respect to indemnification payments received by the Indemnified Taxpayer or with respect to the receipt of any payment from the taxing authority. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnified Taxpayer shall not be required to make any payment hereunder before the time the Sellers shall have made all payments or indemnities then due with respect to the Indemnified Taxpayer pursuant to this Section 9.

(f) If any of the conditions in Section 9.3.3(b) above are or become unsatisfied, (A) the Indemnified Taxpayer may defend against, and consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to, the claim in any

-51-

manner it may deem appropriate; provided, however, the Indemnified Taxpayer shall, in advance, consult with, and obtain consent from, the Sellers in connection therewith, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, (B) the Sellers will reimburse the Indemnified Taxpayer promptly and periodically for the costs of defending against the claim (including, without limitation, attorneys’, accountants’ and experts’ fees and disbursements) and (C) the Sellers will remain responsible for any Tax Losses the Indemnified Taxpayer may suffer to the fullest extent provided in this Section 9.

9.3.4 Anything to the contrary in this Agreement notwithstanding, the indemnification obligations of the Sellers under this Section 9 shall survive the Closing until the end of the applicable statutes of limitations. With respect to any indemnification obligation for any Tax for which a taxing authority asserts a claim within 90 days before the end of the applicable statute of limitations, an Indemnified Taxpayer shall be treated as having provided timely notice to the Sellers by providing written notice to the Sellers on or before the 90^th day after the Indemnified Taxpayer’s receipt of a written assertion of the claim by the taxing authority.

9.3.5 All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other similar Taxes and fees (including any penalties, interest and additions) incurred in connection with this Agreement shall be paid by the Sellers when due, and the Sellers, at their own expense, will file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all the transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other Taxes and fees, and, if required by applicable Law, the Buyer will, and will cause its Affiliates to, join in the execution of any of those Tax Returns and other documentation.
