(xi)  any Liability that is inconsistent with or constitutes an inaccuracy in, or that arises or exists by virtue of any Breach of, (x) any representation or warranty made by the Seller or any Member in any of the Transactional Agreements, or (y) any covenant or obligation of the Seller or any Member contained in any of the Transactional Agreements; or

(xii)  any other Liability that is not referred to specifically in Section 1.2(b)(i), (b)(ii) or (b)(iii).

(d)   On or prior to April 27, 2005, the Purchaser will prepare or cause to be prepared a balance sheet of the Seller as of the Closing Date (the "Closing Date Balance Sheet") showing the amount of Closing Date Working Capital, along with a statement setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculating Closing Date Working Capital, which shall be in accordance with GAAP and consistent with the methodology used in Seller's Financial Statements (as defined in Section 2.4 below), and shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Seller such Closing Date Balance Sheet. In the event that the Seller objects to the Purchaser's calculation of the Closing Date Working Capital, then, within 30 days after the delivery to the Seller of the Closing Date Balance Sheet, the Seller shall deliver to the Purchaser a notice describing in reasonable detail the Seller's objection to the Purchaser's calculation (an "Objection Notice"), accompanied by a statement setting forth the dollar amount determined by the Seller to represent the Closing Date Working Capital or a request for additional information from the Purchaser that the Seller may require in order to determine the Closing Date Working Capital. If the Seller does not deliver an Objection Notice to the Purchaser within the 30-day period referred to in the preceding sentence, then the Purchaser's calculation of the Closing Date Working Capital shall be binding and conclusive on the Purchaser and the Seller. If the Seller delivers an Objection Notice to the Purchaser within the 30-day period referred to in this paragraph, and if the Purchaser and the Seller are unable to agree upon the calculation of the Closing Date Working Capital within 15 days after an Objection Notice is delivered to the Purchaser, the Seller and the Purchaser shall select a nationally recognized accounting firm mutually acceptable to them (the "Neutral Accountant") to resolve any remaining objections, the cost of which shall be paid by the party

3

whose assertions regarding the amount of the Closing Date Working Capital differ by the greater amount from the Closing Date Working Capital determined by the Neutral Accountant. If Purchase and Seller are unable to select the Neutral Accountant within 10 days after the commencement of such selection process, the Neutral Accountant shall be KPMG (or its successor). The Seller and the Purchaser shall jointly instruct the Neutral Accountant to resolve any unresolved objections within 30 days after referral of the matter to them, and the determination by the Neutral Accountant of the Closing Date Working Capital, shall be conclusive and binding on the Purchaser and Seller absent fraud or manifest error. During the 30-day period following the Objection Notice, Seller and Purchaser shall each have access to the other party's working papers and similar materials prepared in connection with the Closing Date Balance Sheet and the Objection Notice, as the case may be.

(i)  If the Seller's Closing Date Working Capital (as finally determined in accordance with this Section 1.2(d)) exceeds $500,000, the Purchaser shall promptly deliver to the Seller (but in no event later than the fifth day after the date on which the Seller's Closing Date Working Capital is finally determined in accordance with section 1.2(d)) the amount by which the Closing Date Working Capital exceeds $500,000 in immediately available funds. If such payment is not timely made, such payment shall bear interest from the last day on which it was required to have been paid to the date on which it is finally paid at a rate per annum, compounded daily, equal to the rate reported as the prime rate from time to time in the Money Rate section of The Wall Street Journal plus 5%, not to exceed, however, the maximum rate allowed by the Laws of the state of Colorado.

(ii)  If the Seller's Closing Date Working Capital (as finally determined in accordance with this Section 1.2(d)) is less than $500,000, the Seller shall promptly deliver to the Purchaser (but in no event later than the fifth day after the date on which the Seller's Closing Date Working Capital is finally determined in accordance with Section 1.2(d)) the amount by which $500,000 exceeds the Closing Date Working Capital in immediately available funds. If such payment is not timely made, such payment shall bear interest from the last day on which it was required to have been paid to the date on which it is finally paid at a rate per annum, compounded daily, equal to the rate reported as the prime rate from time to time in the Money Rate section of The Wall Street Journal plus 5%, not to exceed, however, the maximum rate allowed by the Laws of the state of Colorado.

1.3 Sales Taxes.    The Seller shall bear and pay, and shall reimburse the Purchaser and the Purchaser's affiliates for, any sales taxes, use taxes, transfer taxes or similar taxes that may become payable in connection with the sale of the Assets to the Purchaser or in connection with any of the other Transactions.

1.4 Allocation.    At or prior to the Closing, the Purchaser shall deliver to the Seller a statement, reasonably acceptable to the Seller, setting forth the Purchaser's good faith determination of the manner in which the consideration referred to in Sections 1.2(a)(i), 1.2(a)(ii) and 1.2(a)(iii) is to be allocated among the Assets. The allocation prescribed by such statement shall be conclusive and binding upon the Members and the Seller for all purposes, and neither the Seller nor any Member shall file any Tax Return or other document with, or make any statement or declaration to, any Governmental Body that is inconsistent with such allocation.

1.5 Closing.

(a)   The closing of the sale of the Assets to the Purchaser (the "Closing") shall take place at the offices of Xxxxxx Godward llp in Broomfield, Colorado, at 10:00 a.m. on April 7, 2005, at 10:00 a.m. on such date; provided, however, that if any condition set forth in Section 6.2 has not been satisfied as of such date, then the Purchaser may, at its election, (i) unilaterally postpone the Closing Date by up to thirty (30) days, or (ii) terminate this Agreement in accordance with

4

Section 6.4 hereof. For purposes of this Agreement, "Closing Date" shall mean the time and date as of which the Closing actually takes place.

(b)   At the Closing:

(i)  the Seller shall execute and deliver to the Purchaser such bills of sale, endorsements, assignments and other documents as may (in the reasonable judgment of the Purchaser or its counsel) be necessary or appropriate to assign, convey, transfer and deliver to the Purchaser good and valid title to the Assets free of any Encumbrances;

(vi)  the Purchaser, the Seller and the Members shall enter into a security agreement, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E, providing a security interest in the Assets, which security interest shall support the obligations of the Purchaser with respect to the obligations evidenced by the Consideration Notes;

(vii)  the Purchaser shall enter into Professional Services Agreement with Online Web Marketing Inc., substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F;

(viii)  the Purchaser shall provide executed offer letters to Xxx Xxxxx, Xxxx Xxxxx and Xxxxxx Xxxxx, substantially in the forms attached hereto as Exhibits G-1, G-2 and G-3, respectively;

Neither the Seller nor any Seller Affiliate has ever maintained, established, sponsored, participated in or contributed to, any Seller Pension Plan in which stock of the Seller or any Seller Affiliate is or was held as a plan asset. The fair market value of the assets of each funded Foreign Plan, the liability of each insurer for any Foreign Plan funded through insurance, or the book reserve established for any Foreign Plan, together with any accrued contributions, is sufficient to procure or provide in full for the accrued benefit obligations, with respect to all current and former participants in such Foreign Plan according to the actuarial assumptions and valuations most recently used to determine employer contributions to and obligations under such Foreign Plan, and no transaction contemplated by this Agreement shall cause any such assets or insurance obligations to be less than such benefit obligations.

(e)   No Seller Employee Plan provides (except at no cost to the Seller or any Seller Affiliate), or reflects or represents any liability of the Seller or any Seller Affiliate to provide, retiree life insurance, retiree health benefits or other retiree employee welfare benefits to any Person for any reason, except as may be required by COBRA or other applicable Legal Requirements. Other than commitments made that involve no future costs to the Seller or any Seller Affiliate, neither the Seller nor any Seller Affiliate has ever represented, promised or contracted (whether in oral or written form) to any Seller Employee (either individually or to Seller Employees as a group) or any other Person that such Seller Employee(s) or other person would be provided with retiree life insurance, retiree health benefit or other retiree employee welfare benefits, except to the extent required by applicable Legal Requirements.

Neither the execution nor the delivery of this Agreement, nor the carrying on of the business of the Seller or any Seller Affiliate as presently conducted nor any activity of such shareholder or Seller Employees in connection with the carrying on of the business of the Seller or any Seller Affiliate as presently conducted will, to the best of the knowledge of the Seller and the Members, conflict with, result in a breach of the terms, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under, any Contract under which any of such shareholders or Seller Employees is now bound.

4. INVESTMENT REPRESENTATIONS AND COVENANTS

        Each of the Seller and each Member (each, for purposes of this Section 4, an "Investor") represents and warrants to the Purchaser, individually as to itself and not the other Member, as follows:

4.1 Exemption from Registration. Such Investor agrees and acknowledges that the Consideration Notes will be issued as "restricted securities" as defined under Rule 144 of the Securities Act, in a transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act, by reason of Section 4(2) thereof or Regulation D thereunder, provided such exemption is available for such Consideration Notes.

4.2 Legends. Such Investor agrees and acknowledges that all certificates representing the Consideration Notes deliverable to such Investor pursuant to this Agreement and any instruments subsequently issued with respect thereto or in substitution therefor shall bear the following legend, in addition to any other legends required by law or as set forth in the Consideration Notes:

        THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), AND ARE "RESTRICTED SECURITIES" AS DEFINED IN RULE 144 PROMULGATED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT. SUCH SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE DISTRIBUTED EXCEPT (I) PURSUANT TO A REGISTRATION STATEMENT DECLARED OR ORDERED EFFECTIVE BY THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, OR (II) PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT, AND IN THE CASE OF ANY SALE, OFFER OF SALE, PLEDGE, HYPOTHECATION OR OTHER DISTRIBUTION EFFECTED PURSUANT TO CLAUSE (II) ABOVE, PURSUANT TO AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER OF SUCH SECURITIES THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AS TO SUCH SALE, OFFER OF SALE, PLEDGE, HYPOTHECATION OR OTHER DISTRIBUTION. THIS CERTIFICATE MUST BE SURRENDERED TO THE ISSUER HEREOF OR ITS TRANSFER AGENT AS A CONDITION PRECEDENT TO THE TRANSFER OF ANY INTEREST IN THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY.

        Upon the written request of a holder of the Consideration Notes, the Purchaser shall remove the foregoing legend from the certificates evidencing such Consideration Notes and issue to such holder new certificates therefor, free of any transfer legend if, with such request, the Purchaser shall have received an opinion of counsel to the holder, such opinion to be reasonably satisfactory to the Purchaser, to the effect that any transfers by said holder of such Consideration Notes may be made to the public without compliance with either Section 5 of the Securities Act or pursuant to Rule 144(k). In no event will such legend be removed if such opinion is based upon the "private offering" exemption of Section 4(2) of the Securities Act.

4.3 Market Stand-Off Agreement. Such Investor agrees that it shall not sell, dispose of, transfer, make any short sale of, grant any option for the purchase of, or enter into any hedging or similar transaction with the same economic effect as a sale, any shares of common stock of the Purchaser (or other securities of the Purchaser) held by such Investor, for a period of time specified by the managing underwriter(s) (not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days) following the effective date of a

30

registration statement of the Company filed under the Act. Such Investor agrees to execute and deliver such other agreements as may be reasonably requested by the Purchaser and/or the managing underwriter(s) which are consistent with the foregoing or which are necessary to give further effect thereto. In order to enforce the foregoing covenant, the Purchaser may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to such shares of common stock (or other securities) until the end of such period. The underwriters of the Purchaser's common stock are intended third-party beneficiaries of this Section 4.3 and shall have the right, power and authority to enforce the provisions hereof as though they were a party hereto.

4.4 Investment Representations.

(b)   Except to the extent otherwise provided for in connection with, or otherwise not applicable in light of, the express provisions of any of the Transactional Agreements, the Consideration Notes to be issued as consideration pursuant hereto are being acquired by such Investor pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement and for such Investor's own account and for investment purposes only, and not with a view to any public resale, public distribution or other public offering thereof, in each case within the meaning of the Securities Act or any state securities or "blue sky" law.

(c)   Such Investor understands and acknowledges that the Consideration Notes to be issued to it may not be sold or otherwise disposed of, except pursuant to registration under the Securities Act or pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

(d)   Such Investor has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that such Investor is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment in the Consideration Notes, and such Investor is able to bear the economic consequences thereof.

31

(e)   In making the decision to acquire the Consideration Notes, such Investor has relied upon his independent investigations and, to the extent believed by such Investor to be appropriate, such Investor's representative, including such Member's own professional, tax and other advisors, and has not relied upon any representation or warranty from the Purchaser or any of its Representatives with respect to the value of the Consideration Notes or the Tax consequences of the Transactions.

(f)    Such Investor has been given a full opportunity to examine all documents relating to the Transactions, and to ask questions of, and to receive answers from, the Purchaser and its Representatives concerning the terms of the Transactions and such other information as such Investor desires in order to evaluate an investment in the Consideration Notes and all such questions have been answered to the full satisfaction of such Investor.

(g)   Such Investor is an "accredited investor" within the meaning of SEC Rule 501 of Regulation D, as presently in effect.

5.     INDEMNIFICATION, ETC.

5.1 Survival of Representations And Covenants.

(b)   The representations, warranties, covenants and obligations of each party shall survive the Closing to the extent provided in this Section 5.1(b). The Specified Representations and covenants or obligations to be performed after the Closing shall survive and continue indefinitely. All other representations and warranties and related sections of the Seller Disclosure Schedule and the Purchaser Disclosure Schedule and all covenants to have been performed prior to the Closing shall survive the Closing for a period of twelve (12) months after the date of the Closing, except that the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 2.17 and 2.20 shall survive the Closing until the expiration of the statute of limitations applicable to claims against the Seller.

(c)   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 5.1(b) (and without limiting the generality of anything contained in Section 5.1(a)), if any party to this Agreement had knowledge, on or prior to the Closing Date, of any circumstance that constitutes or that has given rise or could reasonably be expected to give rise, directly or indirectly, to any Breach of any representation or warranty by such party in this Agreement or the Seller Disclosure Schedule or Purchaser Disclosure Schedule, as applicable, then such representation or warranty shall not

32

expire, but rather shall remain in full force and effect for an unlimited period of time (regardless of whether any Claim Notice relating to such representation or warranty is ever given).

(d)   For purposes of this Agreement, a "Claim Notice" relating to a particular representation or warranty shall be deemed to have been given if any party to this Agreement, acting in good faith, delivers (in accordance with Section 8.4 hereof) to the party to this Agreement from which indemnification is to be sought a written notice stating that such party believes that there is or that it has reasonable cause to believe there has been a Breach of such representation or warranty and containing (i) a brief description of the circumstances supporting such party's belief that there is or has been such a possible Breach, and (ii) a non-binding, preliminary estimate of the aggregate dollar amount of the actual and potential Damages that have arisen and may arise as a direct or indirect result of such possible Breach.

(a)   The Members and the Seller, jointly and severally, shall hold harmless and indemnify each of the Indemnitees from and against, and shall compensate and reimburse each of the Indemnitees for, any Damages that are directly suffered or incurred by any of the Indemnitees or to which any of the Indemnitees may otherwise become subject at any time (regardless of whether or not such Damages relate to any third-party claim) and that arise directly or indirectly from or as a direct or indirect result of, or are directly or indirectly connected with:

(i)  any Breach of any representation or warranty made by the Members or the Seller in Section 2 of this Agreement as of the date of this Agreement;

(b)   Each of the Members shall, severally but not jointly, hold harmless and indemnify each of the Indemnitees from and against, and shall compensate and reimburse each of the Indemnitees for, any Damages that are directly or indirectly suffered or incurred by any of the Indemnitees or to which any of the Indemnitees may otherwise become subject at any time (regardless of whether or not such Damages relate to any third-party claim) and which arise directly or indirectly from or as a direct or indirect result of, or are directly or indirectly connected with, any Breach of any representation or warranty made by such Member in Section 4 of this Agreement as of the date of this Agreement.

Except in the case of fraud or willful misrepresentation, the maximum liability of each Member under Section 5.2(b) shall not exceed one-half of the Aggregate Overall Cap. Except in the case of fraud or willful misrepresentation, the maximum liability of the Members and the Seller for indemnification pursuant to Sections 5.2(a)(i) through (iii) and 5.2(a)(v) shall not exceed the Aggregate Overall Cap. Claims under Sections 5.2(a) and 5.2(b) shall be aggregated in determining whether claims for Damages exceed one-half of the Aggregate Overall Cap or the Aggregate Overall Cap, as applicable.

(d)   The limitation on the indemnification obligations of the Members and the Seller that is set forth in Section 5.2(c) shall not apply to any Breach arising directly or indirectly from any circumstance of which any of the Members or the Seller had Knowledge on or prior to the Closing Date.

5.3 Indemnification By The Purchaser.

(a)   The Purchaser shall hold harmless and indemnify the Seller, the Members and their respective Representatives from and against, and shall compensate and reimburse them for, any Damages that are directly or indirectly suffered or incurred by them or any of them or to which they or any of them may otherwise become subject at any time (regardless of whether or not such Damages relate to any third-party claim) and that arise directly or indirectly from or as a direct or indirect result of, or are directly or indirectly connected with:

For purposes of this Agreement, the "Purchaser Specified Representations" shall mean the representations set forth in Sections 3.1 through 3.6 hereof, inclusive.

(b)   The Purchaser shall not be required to make any indemnification payment pursuant to Sections 5.3(a)(ii) through 5.3(a)(iv) for any Breach as set forth in such Section until such time as, and to the extent that, the total amount of all Damages (including the Damages arising from such Breach and all other Damages arising from any other Breaches of its representations or warranties) that have been directly or indirectly suffered or incurred by the Seller, or to which the Seller have otherwise become subject, exceeds $100,000 in the aggregate. Except in the case of fraud or willful misrepresentation, the maximum liability of the Purchaser pursuant to this Section 5 for indemnification pursuant to Sections 5.3(a)(ii) through 5.3(a)(iv) shall not exceed the Aggregate Overall Cap.

34

(c)   The Purchaser shall hold harmless and indemnify the Seller, the Members and their respective Representatives from and against, and shall compensate and reimburse them for, any Damages that are directly or indirectly suffered or incurred by them or any of them or to which they or any of them may otherwise become subject at any time (regardless of whether or not such Damages relate to any third-party claim) and that arise directly or indirectly from or as a direct or indirect result of, or are directly or indirectly connected with any Breach of a representation or warranty contained in this agreement, other than the Purchaser Specified Representations (the "Unspecified Representations"), which damages are a result of the Purchaser's fraud. The indemnification set forth in this Section 5.3(c) shall be the sole recourse available to the Seller or its affiliates with respect to any Breach of the Unspecified Representations.

5.4 Setoff.    The Purchaser shall have the limited right to withhold and deduct any sum that may be owed to any Indemnitee under this Section 5 from any amount payable by any Indemnitee to the Seller or any Member in respect of the Consideration Notes. The withholding and deduction of any such sum shall operate for all purposes as a complete discharge (to the extent of such sum) of the obligation to pay the amount from which such sum was withheld and deducted. Except as provided above in this Section 5.4, the Indemnitees shall not be entitled to set off against or deduct from any payment due to the Members or the Seller pursuant to the Transactional Agreements any claims for indemnification pursuant to Section 5.2.

5.5 Exclusive Remedy.    Except in the case of (i) fraud or willful misrepresentation, (ii) a Breach of either of the Non-compete Agreements, or (iii) any injunctive remedy or similar equitable relief to which a party may be entitled, the sole and exclusive remedy for any breach of a warranty, representation, covenant or obligation in the Transactional Agreements shall be as set forth in this Section 5.

(a)   Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under Section 5.2 or Section 5.3 of notice of the assertion or commencement by any third person or entity of any claim, investigation, proceeding or action (collectively, a "Claim") with respect to which any indemnifying party may become obligated to indemnify, hold harmless, compensate or reimburse an indemnified party pursuant to this Section 5, such indemnified party will, if a claim is to be made against an indemnifying party under such Section or if the indemnified party intends to take such claim into account in calculating the limitations described in Section 5.2(b) or Section 5.3(b), as applicable, give notice to the indemnifying party of the commencement of such Claim, but the failure to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party of any liability that the indemnifying party may have to any indemnified party, except to the extent that the indemnifying party demonstrates that the defense of such action is prejudiced by the indemnified party's failure to give such notice.

(b)   The indemnified party shall afford the indemnifying party the opportunity to assume the defense of any claim as to which notice is given under Section 5.6(a) at the sole expense of the indemnifying party. If the indemnifying party so undertakes to assume the defense of such Claim:

(i)  the indemnifying party shall proceed to defend such Claim in a diligent manner with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party;

(ii)  the indemnifying party shall keep the indemnified party informed of all material developments and events relating to such Claim;

(iii)  the indemnified party shall have the right to participate in the defense of such Claim, provided, however, the counsel retained by the indemnified party shall be at the sole cost and expense of the indemnified party, and further provided, that counsel retained by the indemnifying party shall be lead counsel in the defense of such Claim; and

35

(iv)  the indemnifying party shall not settle, adjust or compromise such Claim without the prior written consent of the indemnified party which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(c)   If the indemnifying party fails to promptly undertake the defense of such Claim or having undertaken such defense thereafter fails to do so diligently and in good faith, then the indemnified party may proceed with the defense of such Claim and:

(ii)  the indemnifying party shall make available to the indemnified party any documents and materials in the possession or control of the indemnifying party that may be necessary to the defense of such Claim;

(iii)  the indemnified party shall keep the indemnifying party informed of all material developments and events relating to such Claim; and

(iv)  the indemnified party shall have the right to settle, adjust or compromise such Claim with the consent of the indemnifying party which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

5.7 Exercise of Remedies By Indemnitees Other Than The Purchaser.    No Indemnitee (other than the Purchaser or any successor thereto or assign thereof) shall be permitted to assert any indemnification claim or exercise any other remedy under this Agreement unless the Purchaser (or any successor thereto or assign thereof) shall have consented to the assertion of such indemnification claim or the exercise of such other remedy.

5.8 Allocation.    Any payment of indemnification pursuant to Section 5.2 shall be treated by the parties for tax purposes as an adjustment to the purchase price described in Section 1.4 of this Agreement.

5.9 Insurance and Taxes.    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any amount paid by any third party (including, without limitation, an insurance carrier) to or on behalf of an indemnified party or otherwise reimbursed to any indemnified party with respect to a matter as to which indemnification is provided and any tax benefit received by an indemnified party with respect to a matter as to which indemnification is provided shall reduce in each instance the amount to be paid by an indemnifying party to an indemnified party with respect to such matter.

5.10 In Rem Liability.    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, and except as set forth in this Section 5.10, the Purchaser irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that (i) the Purchaser shall have no recourse to the Seller and the Members or to the assets of the Seller and the Members other than the Consideration Note for the payment of indemnification obligations of the Seller and the Members pursuant to this Section 5 and (ii) the Purchaser shall enforce payment of indemnification claims against the Seller and the Members pursuant to this Section 5 solely from the Consideration Note and no deficiency or other action shall be maintained against the Seller or the Members for payment thereof or personal liability therefor. For purposes of this paragraph and the Purchaser's enforcement of its rights hereunder by setoff against the Consideration Note, (i) prior to any conversion of the Consideration Note into common stock of the Purchaser, claims for indemnification shall be setoff against the Outstanding Principal Amount (as defined in the Consideration Note) on a dollar for dollar basis and (ii) after conversion of the Consideration Note into common stock of the Purchaser, each share of common stock of the Purchaser shall have an amount equal to the fair market value of such share on the date of the payment of the claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 5. The foregoing limitation shall not apply to (i) Damages incurred by the Purchaser due to the Seller's, or any Member's, fraud or willful misrepresentation, or

36

(ii) a Breach by the Seller or either Member of any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation of such Member contained in either of the Non-competition Agreements.
