(a) Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as an attempt to assign any Contract or License included in the Purchased Assets which is by its terms or law nonassignable without the consent of the other party or parties thereto (collectively, the “Non-Assignable Assets”), unless such consent shall have been given or as to which all the remedies for the enforcement thereof enjoyed by Seller would, as a matter of law, pass to Buyer as an incident of the assignments provided for by this Agreement. Buyer and Seller shall, following the Closing (for up to twelve (12) months), use commercially reasonable efforts (which shall not be construed to require the payment (except as set forth in Section 2.3(b)) of any amount or assumption of any Liability by Seller or Shareholder) to obtain the consent of any third party to the assignment to Buyer of any Contract or License for which such consent is required and cooperate with each other to obtain any such required consent or authorization required under any Contract or License. In the event (a) a Contract or License either does not permit or expressly prohibits the assignment by Seller of its rights and obligations thereunder, or (b) Seller has not obtained the necessary consents to assignment from all parties to any Contract or License prior to the Closing, or (c) direct assumption of any Contract or License is not practical, Buyer shall fulfill such Contract or License and shall assume the obligations and liabilities of such Contract or License accruing after the Closing for and on behalf of Seller but for the account of Buyer and Seller shall cooperate with Buyer in any reasonable arrangements designed to provide for Buyer the benefits under such Contracts or Licenses accruing after the Closing including the enforcement for the benefit and at the expense of Buyer of any rights comparable to the rights previously enjoyed by Seller in connection with such Contracts or Licenses.Buyer will indemnify and hold harmless Seller, Shareholder and its Subsidiaries from and against any and all Losses actually incurred by Seller, Shareholder or its Subsidiaries (i) as a result of any actions taken or any required actions omitted to be taken by Buyer after the Closing Date as subcontractor, representative or obligor with respect to any Non-Assignable Asset or the non-compliance by Buyer on or following the Closing Date with any Laws applicable to any such Non-Assignable Asset; or (ii) if Buyer is permitted by applicable Law and the terms of a Non-Assignable Asset to perform the covenants and obligations of Seller thereunder in Seller’s stead, for any Losses otherwise relating to such Non-Assignable Asset, in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii), other than any Losses resulting from Shareholder’s and/or Seller’s own fraud, negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith. For the avoidance of doubt, no failure to transfer any Non-Assignable Asset to Buyer, will in and of itself, but subject to compliance with this Section 2.3, result in (i) any adjustment to the Initial Purchase Price or (ii) any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, or agreement contained in this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any shared assets under the Transition Services Agreement that are, upon the mutual consent of the parties, subsequently transferred to Buyer, shall be transferred without additional consideration.

(b) Seller and Shareholder, for up to twelve (12) months, shall take all necessary actions to timely assist in (i) the assignment and novation of all Government Contracts and the assignment of all accounts receivable related to any and all Government Contracts that are not prime contracts between Seller and a Governmental Authority, and (ii) sponsoring Buyer’s facility clearance.

Section 2.8 Purchase Price Adjustment.

(a) On or prior to the Closing Date, Seller will reasonably and in good faith prepare a written estimate (the “Closing Statement”) of the amount of the estimated Closing Net Working Capital (the “Estimated Closing Net Working Capital”) and shall deliver such Closing Statement to Buyer at least three (3) Business Days prior to Closing. Seller shall deliver to Buyer supporting calculations and documentation of such calculations, in reasonable detail, concurrently with the delivery of the Closing Statement. Seller shall provide Buyer and its advisors with an opportunity to review the Closing Statement and will reasonably consider any comments thereto received from Buyer. The “Estimated Purchase Price Adjustment” shall equal (A) the positive amount, if any, by which the Estimated Closing Net Working Capital exceeds the Target Net Working Capital by more than $500,000.00; or (B) the negative amount, if any, by which the Estimated Closing Net Working Capital is less than the Target Net Working Capital by more than $500,000.00. The Initial Purchase Price plus (or minus) the Estimated Purchase Price Adjustment shall be referred to as the “Estimated Purchase Price.”

(b) As soon as practicable, but in no event later than ninety (90) days following the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare a calculation of the Net Working Capital as of the Closing Date (the “Closing Net Working Capital”). Buyer shall deliver a written statement of the Closing Net Working Capital (the “Closing Net Working Capital Statement”) to Seller promptly after it has been prepared.

(c) During the calculation of the Closing Net Working Capital and the period of any dispute within the contemplation of this Section 2.8, Seller shall (i) provide Buyer and Buyer’s authorized representatives with reasonable access during normal business hours to the books, records, facilities and employees of Seller concerning the Business, and (ii) cooperate with Buyer’s and Buyer’s authorized representatives’ reasonable requests with respect to the calculation of the Closing Net Working Capital, including by providing on a timely basis all information necessary or useful in calculating the Closing Net Working Capital.

(d) After receipt of the Closing Net Working Capital Statement, Seller shall have thirty (30) days to review the Closing Net Working Capital Statement. Seller and its authorized representatives shall have reasonable access during normal business hours to all relevant books and records of Buyer and Business Employees to the extent required to complete their review of the Closing Net Working Capital Statement. Unless Seller delivers written notice to Buyer on or prior to the thirtieth (30^th) day after Seller’s receipt of the Closing Net Working Capital Statement specifying in reasonable detail the amount, nature and basis of all disputed items, Seller shall be deemed to have accepted and agreed to the calculation of the Closing Net Working Capital. If Seller timely notifies Buyer of its objection to the calculation of the Closing Net Working Capital, Buyer and Seller shall, within sixty (60) days (or such longer period as the parties may agree in writing) following such notice (the “Resolution Period”), attempt to resolve their differences and any resolution by them as to any disputed amounts shall be final, binding and conclusive.

(e) If, at the conclusion of the Resolution Period, there are any amounts remaining in dispute, then such amounts remaining in dispute shall be submitted to a firm of nationally recognized independent public accountants (the “Neutral Auditors”) selected by Seller and Buyer within ten (10) days after the expiration of the Resolution Period. If Seller and Buyer are unable to agree on the Neutral Auditors, then each of Seller and Buyer shall have the right to request the office of the American Arbitration Association to appoint the Neutral Auditors, which Neutral Auditors shall not have had a material relationship with Seller, Buyer or any of their respective Affiliates within the past two (2) years. Each party agrees to execute, if requested by the Neutral Auditors, a reasonable engagement letter, including customary indemnities. All fees and expenses relating to the work, if any, to be performed by the Neutral Auditors shall be borne pro rata as between Seller and Buyer in proportion to the allocation of the dollar amount of the amounts remaining in dispute between Seller and Buyer made by the Neutral Auditors such that the prevailing party pays the lesser proportion of the fees and expenses. The Neutral Auditors shall act as an arbitrator to determine, based solely on the provisions of this Section 2.8 and the presentations by Seller and Buyer, and not by independent review, only those issues still in dispute. The Neutral Auditors’ determination shall be made within thirty (30) days of their selection, shall be set forth in a written statement delivered to Seller and Buyer, shall be within the range of values assigned to each disputed item in the Closing Net Working Capital Statement and any notice of dispute delivered by Seller, and shall be deemed a final, binding and conclusive arbitration award. A judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction may be entered upon the Neutral Auditors’ determination. The term “Final Closing Net Working Capital” shall mean the definitive Closing Net Working Capital agreed to (or deemed to be agreed to) by Buyer and Seller in accordance with Section 2.8(d) or resulting from the determinations made by the Neutral Auditors in accordance with this Section 2.8(e) (in addition to those items agreed to by Seller and Buyer).

(f) The Estimated Purchase Price shall be (i) increased dollar for dollar to the extent the Final Closing Net Working Capital is more than $500,000.00 greater than the Target Net Working Capital, or (ii) decreased dollar for dollar to the extent the Final Closing Net Working Capital is more than $500,000.00 less than the Target Net Working Capital. The Estimated Purchase Price as adjusted pursuant to this Section 2.8(f) shall be referred to as the “Final Purchase Price.”

(g) If the Final Purchase Price exceeds the Estimated Purchase Price, then Buyer will pay to Seller an amount equal to such excess. If the Final Purchase Price is less than the Estimated Purchase Price, then Seller will pay to Buyer the amount of such deficiency. Any amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.8(g) shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds to (i) the account specified by Seller (for the account of Seller), if Seller is owed payment, or (ii) the account specified by Buyer (for the account of Buyer), if Buyer is owed payment, within five (5) Business days after the Final Closing Net Working Capital is agreed to by Buyer and Seller or any remaining disputed items are ultimately determined by the Neutral Auditors.

Section 2.9 Certain Taxes.

Any real, personal and intangible property Taxes and similar ad valorem Taxes relating or attributable to the Purchased Assets that are reported on a Return covering a taxable period that includes but does not end on the Closing Date shall be prorated between Seller and Buyer on a per diem basis.

ARTICLE III

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF SELLER AND SHAREHOLDER

Seller and Shareholder, jointly and severally, hereby represent and warrant to Buyer that the following representations and warranties are true and correct as of the Closing Date:

Section 3.1 Organization; Authorization; Etc.

Seller is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. Schedule 3.1 sets forth a list of each jurisdiction in which Seller is required, based on the property owned, leased or operated by Seller, the nature of the business conducted by Seller, or for any other reason, to be authorized to conduct business as a foreign corporation. Seller is duly authorized to conduct business as a foreign corporation and is in good standing in each such jurisdiction, in each case except where the failure to be so duly authorized would not have a Material Adverse Effect on Seller. Seller has all requisite corporate power and authority to own or use the properties and assets that it purports to own or use and to conduct its business as it is now being conducted. Seller has delivered to Buyer true and complete copies of the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of Seller (as amended to date). Seller and Shareholder has full power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements to which each of them is a party, to perform each of their obligations hereunder and thereunder and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements to which Seller is a party, the performance of Seller’s obligations hereunder and thereunder and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary proceedings on the part of Seller.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the survival periods set forth in this Section 6.1 shall not affect or otherwise limit any claim made or available under the R&W Policy or any claim relating to Fraud.

Section 6.2 Indemnification by Buyer.

Subject to the limitations set forth in this Article VI, from and after the Closing, Buyer shall indemnify and hold harmless Seller and its Affiliates, each of their respective shareholders, directors, officers, employees and agents, and each of the heirs, executors, successors and assigns of any of the foregoing (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all Losses incurred by any of the Seller Indemnified Parties in connection with or arising from:

(a) any breach by Buyer of its covenants and agreements contained herein, including without limitation Buyer’s obligations related to the Purchased Assets and Assumed Liabilities; or

(b) any breach by Buyer of its representations and warranties contained herein.

Any payment made pursuant to this Section 6.2 shall be treated by Seller and Buyer as an adjustment to the Purchase Price, and Seller and Buyer agree not to take any position inconsistent therewith for any purpose.

Section 6.3 Indemnification by Seller and Shareholder.

Subject to the limitations set forth in this Article VI, from and after the Closing, Seller and Shareholder, jointly and severally, shall indemnify and hold harmless Buyer and its Affiliates, each of their respective shareholders, directors, officers, employees and agents, and each of the heirs, executors, successors and assigns of any of the foregoing (collectively, the “Buyer Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all Losses incurred by any of the Buyer Indemnified Parties in connection with or arising from:

(a) any breach by Seller or Shareholder of their covenants and agreements contained herein;

(b) any breach by Seller or Shareholder of their representations and warranties contained herein (provided, that any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty shall be determined without regard to any qualifications therein referring to “material”, “materiality”, “Material Adverse Effect”, “Effect”, or any other qualifications of similar import or effect); or

(d) any and all Liabilities related to the matters set forth on Schedule 6.3(d).

Section 6.4 Limitations on Indemnification.

(a) Notwithstanding the foregoing, except in connection with a breach by Seller of any of the representations or warranties contained in Sections 3.1 (Organization; Authorization; Etc.), 3.4 (Title to Purchased Assets), and 3.27 (Brokers, Finders, Etc.) (the “Fundamental Representations”) and except in the case of Fraud by Seller, (A) Seller shall not be required to indemnify the Buyer Indemnified Parties pursuant to Section 6.3(b) until the aggregate Losses indemnifiable pursuant to Section 6.3(b) exceed $350,000 in the aggregate (the “Seller Threshold Amount”), at which point the Buyer Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to recover the entire amount of such Losses from the first dollar up to the policy limit under the R&W Policy. Except as specifically set forth in this Article VI, the maximum amount that the Buyer Indemnified Parties may recover from an Indemnifying Party for Losses pursuant to the indemnity set forth in Section 6.3(b) (other than claims for Fraud or in connection with a breach by Seller of any Fundamental Representation) shall be limited to the policy limit under the R&W Policy and the maximum amount that the Buyer Indemnified Parties may recover from an Indemnifying Party for Losses pursuant to the indemnity set forth in Section 6.3(a) (other than claims for Fraud) shall be limited, in the aggregate, to a dollar amount equal to the portion of the Purchase Price actually received by such Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Agreement, including any amounts withheld by Buyer in accordance with this Agreement in respect of Taxes or otherwise.

(b) Any payment made pursuant to this Section 6.4 shall be treated by Seller and Buyer as an adjustment to the Purchase Price, and Seller and Buyer agree not to take any position inconsistent therewith for any purpose.

(c) Any amounts owing to any Buyer Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 6.3(b) in excess of the Seller Threshold Amount shall be recovered (except in the case of Fraud which amounts owing may be recovered directly from Seller or Shareholder): (A) first, from Seller and the Shareholder directly, up to the retention amount under the R&W Policy, which amounts payable pursuant to this clause (A) by Seller and Shareholder shall not exceed $350,000 in the aggregate, and (B) second, from the R&W Policy, until the coverage thereunder has been exhausted. All claims of the Buyer Indemnified Parties pursuant to Section 6.3(a), 6.3(c) and 6.3(d) shall be recovered from Seller and Shareholder directly. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, except in the case of Fraud or in connection with a breach by Seller or Shareholder of any of the Fundamental Representations, in no event will Seller or Shareholder’s Liability under this Agreement pursuant to Section 6.3(b) exceed, in the aggregate, an amount equal to the retention under the R&W Policy. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that the provisions of this Section 6.4(c) shall apply regardless of whether (i) Buyer obtains or maintains the R&W Policy, (ii) the R&W Policy is revoked, cancelled or modified in any manner after issuance or (iii) a Buyer Indemnified Party makes a claim under the R&W Policy and such claim is denied in whole or in part; provided, however, that, nothing in this Article VI shall limit the Liability of an Indemnifying Party in connection with a claim based on Fraud. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event any amounts are owing directly from Seller or Shareholder to a Buyer Indemnified Party hereunder, Buyer Indemnified Party may setoff such amounts against any Revenue Milestone Payments, the Revenue Milestone Payments Buyout Amount, and/or the Unused Space Amount.

(d) Except in connection with claims based on Fraud, rights under the Ancillary Agreement, and the rights of Buyer to seek recovery under the R&W Policy, the indemnification rights set forth in this Article VI shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Indemnified Parties from and after the Closing for any claims arising under this Agreement, including claims of any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation, warranty or covenant in this Agreement or in any certificate or instrument delivered in connection herewith; provided, however, that this Section 6.4 shall not be deemed a waiver by any party of any right to specific performance or injunctive relief or other non-monetary equitable remedies.

(e) The amount of any Losses that are subject to indemnification under this Article VI shall be calculated net of the amount of any insurance proceeds actually received by the Indemnified Parties in respect of such Losses or any of the events or circumstances giving rise or otherwise related to such Losses (net of any costs or expenses incurred in obtaining such insurance, including any increases in insurance premiums resulting from any insurance recovery) and the Indemnified Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to seek full recovery under any applicable insurance policies that might be applicable to such Losses. In the event that any insurance is actually received by any Indemnified Party with respect to any Losses for which such Indemnified Party has been indemnified hereunder, then a refund equal to the net aggregate amount of the recovery (after taking into account of any costs or expenses incurred in obtaining such insurance, including any increases in insurance premiums resulting from any insurance recovery) shall be made promptly to the Indemnifying Parties.

(f) No Indemnified Party shall be entitled to recover Losses relating to any matter arising under one provision of this Agreement to the extent that such Indemnified Party has recovered Losses in respect of the same such matter under another provision of this Agreement. In no event shall any Indemnified Party be entitled to seek or receive indemnification for the same Losses more than once under this Article VI even if a claim for indemnification in respect of such Losses has been made as a result of a breach of more than one representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement.

(g) Upon discovery of any matter for which an Indemnified Party is, or may be, entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement, such Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate its Losses in connection with such matter.

Section 6.5 Third-Party Claims.

Promptly after receipt by a Seller Indemnified Party or a Buyer Indemnified Party (an “Indemnified Party”) of notice of any matter or the commencement of any Action by a third party in respect of which the Indemnified Party will seek indemnification hereunder (a “Third-Party Claim”), the Indemnified Party shall notify each Person that is obligated to provide such indemnification (an “Indemnifying Party”) thereof in writing but any failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to the Indemnified Party other than to the extent the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by such failure. The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such Third-Party Claim and, provided, that within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such written notice the Indemnifying Party confirms in writing its responsibility therefore and demonstrates to the reasonable satisfaction of the Indemnified Party its financial capability to undertake the defense and provide indemnification with respect to such Third-Party Claim, to assume control of such defense with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party; provided, however, that:

(a) the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such Third-Party Claim and to employ counsel at its own expense to assist in the handling of such matter or claim;

(b) the Indemnifying Party shall obtain the prior written approval of the Indemnified Party before entering into any settlement of such Third-Party Claim or ceasing to defend against such matter or claim (with such approval not to be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed);

(c) no Indemnifying Party shall consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by each claimant or plaintiff to each Indemnified Party of a full and complete release from all liability in respect of such Third-Party Claim; and

(d) the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to control (but shall be entitled to participate at its own expense in the defense of), and the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to have sole control over, the defense or settlement of any Third-Party Claim to the extent the matter or claim seeks an order, injunction, non-monetary or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party which, if successful, could materially interfere with the business, operations, assets, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Indemnified Party.

After written notice by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume control of the defense of any such Third-Party Claim and proof of its financial responsibility as provided in this Section 6.5, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to such Indemnified Party hereunder for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation and of liaison counsel for the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for such legal expenses if the Indemnified Party determines in good faith that the incurrence of the same is appropriate in light of defenses not available to the Indemnifying Party, conflicts of interest or other similar circumstances. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume control of the defense of such Third-Party Claim as provided in this Section 6.5, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to defend such Third-Party Claim in such manner as it may deem appropriate at the cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnifying Party will promptly reimburse the Indemnified Party therefor in accordance with this Article VI. The reimbursement of fees, costs and expenses required by this Article VI shall be made by periodic payments during the course of the investigations or defense, as and when bills are received or expenses incurred. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this Section 6.5 (other than the notice provisions in the first sentence) shall not apply with respect to any Action for Taxes imposed on Seller or any of its Affiliates, which shall be controlled by Seller in its sole discretion.

Section 6.6 Procedure for Other Claims.

An Indemnified Party wishing to assert a claim for indemnification under this Article VI that is not subject to Section 6.5 shall deliver to the Indemnifying Party a prompt written notice (a “Claim Notice”) which contains (a) a description of the amount (or if the amount is unknown, an estimate of the amount) (the “Claimed Amount”) of any Losses incurred by the Indemnified Party, (b) a statement that the Indemnified Party has incurred Losses or anticipates that it will incur Losses for which such Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification under this Article VI, (c) a statement that the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification under this Article VI and a reasonable explanation of the basis therefor (including the nature of the breach of representation or warranty, breach of covenant or agreement, or other matter to which each such claim is related), and (d) a demand for payment in the amount of such Losses. Within thirty (30) days after delivery of a Claim Notice, the Indemnifying Party shall deliver to the Indemnified Party a written response in which the Indemnifying Party shall: (i) agree that it is responsible for the claim under the Claim Notice and that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive all of the Claimed Amount (in which case such amount shall be paid to the Indemnified Party promptly upon delivery of such written response); provided, however, that payment of the Claimed Amount shall not be deemed full satisfaction of the claim if the Claimed Amount was an estimate of the amount of Losses incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection therewith, or (ii) contest that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive the Claimed Amount in whole or in part; provided, that if the Indemnifying Party fails to deliver a written response to a Claim Notice within such thirty (30) day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have agreed that it is responsible for the claim under the Claim Notice and that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive all of the Claimed Amount in accordance with (i) above. If the Indemnifying Party in its response contests the payment of all or part of the Claimed Amount, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall resolve such dispute in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement; provided, that the uncontested part of the Claimed Amount shall be paid to the Indemnified Party promptly upon delivery of such written response.
