1.5 Certificate of Formation and Limited Liability Company Agreement. From and after the Effective Time and without further action on the part of the parties, the Certificate of Formation of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the Certificate of Formation of the Surviving Entity until amended in accordance with the terms thereof. From and after the Effective Time, the operating agreement set forth on Exhibit B attached hereto shall be the operating agreement of the Surviving Entity until amended in accordance with terms thereof.

1.6 Merger Consideration.

(a) The aggregate consideration (the “Merger Consideration”) to be paid or reserved for issuance by Parent and Merger Sub in the Merger to the Members shall be (1) 50,000,000 fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock of Parent, par value $0.001 per share (the “Parent Common Stock”), and (2) 24,666,666 shares of Parent Common Stock which shall be deposited in and subject to the Escrow created and established pursuant to Section 1.15 provided that all the transactions contemplated by the Optioned Property Provider Agreement (as defined in Section 2.3(a)) have been completed (in any event, such shares to be deposited in the Escrow shall sometimes be referred to as the “Escrow Shares”). At the Effective Time, each Company Membership Interest held by a Member immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, by virtue of the Merger, and without any action on the part of such Member, be converted automatically into and become the aggregate of the Merger Consideration and shall be allocated among the Members as set forth on Schedule 1.6(a) (which Schedule shall be amended from time to time to reflect the addition of any new Members to the Company and which final Schedule shall be delivered at least one week prior to Closing). In the event that the transactions contemplated by the Optioned Property Provider Agreement have not closed prior to the Closing Date, the first 12,500,000 shares of Parent Common Stock that would have been Earned Shares will not be issued and the balance of 12,166,666 shares of Parent Common Stock will be issued and deposited in Escrow and constitute part of the Merger Consideration and be subject to return to Parent in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.19.

(b) From and after the Effective Time, all membership interests of the Company, (together, “Company Membership Interests”) (other than any Company Membership Interests to be canceled and retired pursuant to Section 1.7) shall be deemed canceled and shall cease to exist, and each holder of a Company Membership Interest shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto except as set forth herein or under applicable law. As soon as practicable after the Effective Time, Parent shall furnish one or more certificates representing the prescribed number of shares of Parent Common Stock to the Members in accordance with Section 1.14 hereof.

1.7 Cancellation of Membership Interests. Immediately prior to the Effective Time, each Company Membership Interest owned by Parent or any direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary (as defined in Section 2.2(a)) of Parent or the Company, shall be canceled and extinguished without any conversion thereof or payment therefor.

1.8 No Further Ownership Rights in Company Membership Interests. All shares of Parent Common Stock issued upon the surrender for exchange of Company Membership Interests in accordance with the terms of this Article I shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such Company Membership Interests under this Article I. If, after the Effective Time, certificates representing Company Membership Interests are presented to Parent or Surviving Entity for any reason, they shall be canceled and exchanged as provided in this Article I.

1.9 Membership Interests of Merger Sub. Parent’s ownership interest in Merger Sub (the “Merger Sub Membership Interest”) shall be converted automatically into a 100% membership interest in the Company.

1.10 Adjustments to Merger Consideration. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Merger Consideration shall be adjusted, at any time and from time to time, to fully reflect the effect of any stock split, reverse split, stock dividend (including, without limitation, any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into Parent Common Stock), reorganization, recapitalization or other like change with respect to Parent Common Stock, occurring prior to the Closing.

1.11 No Fractional Shares. No certificate or scrip representing fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be issued as part of the Merger Consideration, and such fractional share interests will not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any other rights of a stockholder of Parent. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each holder of Company Membership Interests who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock (after taking into account all Company Membership Interests) shall receive from Parent, in lieu thereof, the next highest number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock.

1.12 No Liability. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, none of the Parent, Merger Sub or the Surviving Entity shall be liable to a Member for any shares of Parent Common Stock or any amount of cash properly paid to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law.

1.13 Taking of Necessary Action; Further Action. If, at any time and from time to time after the Effective Time, any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and to vest in the Surviving Entity full right, title and possession of all assets, properties, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Company and Merger Sub, the officers and directors of the Surviving Entity shall be and are fully authorized and directed, in the name of and on behalf of the Company and Merger Sub, to take, or cause to be taken, all such lawful and necessary action as is not inconsistent with this Agreement.

1.14 Letter of Transmittal. As promptly as practicable before or after the Effective Time, Parent (or its designee or exchange agent) will send to each Member as set forth on Schedule 1.6(a) a letter of transmittal for use in enabling Parent to issue one or more certificates representing the prescribed number of shares of Parent Common Stock to which such Member may be entitled as determined in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Upon delivery of a duly executed letter of transmittal, such Member will be entitled to receive the portion of the Merger Consideration to which such Member may be entitled (as determined in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement). It is intended that such letter of transmittal will contain provisions requiring each executing Member thereof to (a) acknowledge and agree to be bound by Sections 1.6 (Merger Consideration) and 1.19 (Earn-Out) of this Agreement, (b) make representations and warranties with respect to ownership of the Company Membership Interests owned or held by such Member at that time, and (c) waive all appraisal or dissenter’s rights, in each case, in a form reasonably satisfactory to Parent and as a condition precedent to Parent’s obligation to issue shares of Parent Common Stock to such Member. If any certificate representing shares of Parent Common Stock are to be issued in a name other than that as set forth in Schedule 1.6(a), it shall be a condition that the person requesting such shall deliver to Parent (or its designee) all documents necessary to evidence and effect such transfer and pay to Parent (or its designee) any transfer or other taxes required by reason of such issuance or establish to the satisfaction of Parent (or its designee) that such tax has been paid or is not applicable.

(a) To provide for the indemnity obligations set forth in Article VII and to provide for the return of certain shares of Parent Common Stock in the event that certain performance criteria set forth in Section 1.19 are not met, the Escrow Shares shall be deposited in escrow (the “Escrow”). The Escrow Shares shall be subject to the terms and conditions provided herein and the Escrow Agreement to be entered into at the Closing between Parent, F. Xxxx Xxxxx Irrevocable Trust under Agreement dated August 31, 2004 (the “Xxxxx Trust”), Xxxxx Xxxxxxx and Continental Stock Transfer and Trust Company (“Continental”) (or another escrow agent acceptable to the parties), as Escrow Agent, in substantially the form annexed hereto as Exhibit C (the “Escrow Agreement”).

(b) Any Escrow Shares that become Forfeited Shares pursuant to the operation of Section 1.19 (due to the failure to satisfy certain performance targets provided therein) shall be removed from the Escrow, shall cease to be Escrowed Shares and shall be returned to Parent, at such time such shares shall be retired by Parent.

(c) Except as provided in subsection (d) hereof (providing for certain Earned Shares to be set aside to cover the indemnification obligations of the Members as set forth in Article VII), any Escrow Shares that become Earned Shares pursuant to the operation of Section 1.19 (due to the satisfaction of certain performance targets provided therein) shall be released from the Escrow and the Escrow Agent shall deliver the Escrow Shares to the Xxxxx Trust and Xxxxx Xxxxxxx, pro rata among them in accordance with the distribution of the Merger Consideration as set forth on Schedule 1.6(a).

(d) Until the date that is twelve (12) months subsequent to the Closing Date, the first 10,000,000 Earned Shares shall be retained in the Escrow and treated as deposited into a separate account for the purpose of setting aside certain Earned Shares for the possible satisfaction of the indemnification obligations of the Xxxxx Trust and Xxxxx Xxxxxxx pursuant to Article VII (such account shall be referred to herein as the “Earned Shares Indemnity Escrow Account”). On the date that is twelve (12) months and one day subsequent to the Closing Date, only 5,000,000 Earned Shares, shall be retained in the Earned Shares Indemnity Escrow Account and the excess Earned Shares shall be released from the Escrow and the Escrow Agent shall deliver such excess Escrow Shares to the Xxxxx Trust and Xxxxx Xxxxxxx, pro rata among them in accordance with the distribution of the Merger Consideration as set forth on Schedule 1.6(a). On the date that is eighteen (18) months subsequent to the Closing Date, pursuant to Article VII, the indemnity obligation of the Xxxxx Trust and Xxxxx Xxxxxxx shall terminate under this Agreement and any shares remaining in the Earned Shares Indemnity Escrow Account shall be released from the Escrow and the Escrow Agent shall deliver the Escrow Shares to the Xxxxx Trust and Xxxxx Xxxxxxx, pro rata among them in accordance with the distribution of the Merger Consideration as set forth on Schedule 1.6(a). Any Earned Shares that are deposited in the Earned Shares Indemnity Escrow Account and are used to satisfy an indemnification obligation pursuant to Article VII shall be removed from the Escrow, shall cease to be Escrowed Shares and shall be returned to Parent, at such time such shares shall be retired by Parent. Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Section 1.15(d), the indemnification provisions of Article VII, and specifically Section 7.4, and the Escrow Agreement shall control any releases of Earned Shares from the Earned Shares Indemnity Escrow Account to satisfy the Article VII indemnification obligations and the general operation and maintenance of such Account.

(e) Escrow Shares shall be issued and outstanding on the balance sheet of Parent and it is the intention of the parties hereto that such shares be legally outstanding under Delaware law. All dividends payable on the Escrow Shares shall be distributed to the Xxxxx Trust and Xxxxx Xxxxxxx pro rata among them in accordance with the distribution of the Merger Consideration as set forth on Schedule 1.6(a). The Xxxxx Trust and Xxxxx Xxxxxxx shall be entitled to vote the Escrow Shares. .

At the Closing, Parent and the Members shall execute and deliver a Registration Rights Agreement in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit D with respect to registration of the shares of Parent Common Stock under the Securities Act (the “Registration Rights Agreement”).

1.17 Member Matters. Each Member, for itself only, represents and warrants as follows: (i) all Parent Common Stock to be acquired by such Member pursuant to this Agreement will be acquired for his, her or its account and not with a view towards distribution thereof other than, with respect to Members that are entities, transfers to its stockholders, partners or members; (ii) it understands that he, she or it must bear the economic risk of the investment in the Parent Common Stock, which cannot be sold by he, she or it unless it is registered under the Securities Act, or an exemption therefrom is available thereunder; (iii) he, she or it has had both the opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the officers and directors of Parent and all persons acting on Parent’s behalf concerning the business and operations of Parent and to obtain any additional information to the extent Parent possesses or may possess such information or can acquire it without unreasonable effort or expense necessary to verify the accuracy of such information; and (iv) he, she or it has had access to the Parent SEC Reports filed prior to the date of this Agreement. Each Member acknowledges, as to himself, herself or itself only, that (v) he, she or it is either (A) an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501(a) promulgated under the Securities Act, or (B) a person possessing sufficient knowledge and experience in financial and business matters to enable it to evaluate the merits and risks of an investment in Parent; and (vi) he, she or it understands that the certificates representing the Parent Common Stock to be received by he, she or it may bear legends to the effect that the Parent Common Stock may not be transferred except upon compliance with (C) the registration requirements of the Securities Act (or an exemption therefrom), and (D) the provisions of this Agreement. Each Member that is an entity, for itself, represents, warrants and acknowledges, with respect to each holder of its equity interests, to the same effect as the foregoing provisions of this Section 1.17(a).

(b) Each Member, for himself, herself or itself, represents and warrants that the execution and delivery of this Agreement by such Member does not, and the performance of his, her or its obligations hereunder will not, require any consent, approval, authorization or permit of, or filing with or notification to, any court, administrative agency, commission, governmental or regulatory authority, domestic or foreign (a “Governmental Entity”), except (i) for applicable requirements, if any, of the Securities Act, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), state securities laws (“Blue Sky Laws”), and the rules and regulations thereunder, and (ii) where the failure to obtain such consents, approvals, authorizations or permits, or to make such filings or notifications, would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on such Member or the Company or, after the Closing, the Parent, or prevent consummation of the Merger or otherwise prevent the parties hereto from performing their obligations under this Agreement.

1.18 Committee for Purposes of Agreement. Prior to the Closing, the Board of Directors of Parent shall appoint a committee consisting of one of its then members to act on behalf of Parent to take all necessary actions and make all decisions pursuant to the Escrow Agreement regarding Parent’s right to indemnification pursuant to Article VII hereof. In the event of a vacancy in such committee, the Board of Directors of Parent shall appoint as a successor a Person who was a director of Parent prior to the Closing Date or some other Person who would qualify as an “independent” director of Parent and who has not had any relationship with the Company prior to the Closing. Such committee is intended to be the “Committee” referred to in Article VII hereof and the Escrow Agreement.

1.19 Return of Escrow Shares for Failure to Meet Performance Measures

(a) As promptly as practicable after the end of the twelve (12) month period commencing on January 1, 2007 and ending on December 31, 2007 and the twelve (12) month period commencing on January 1, 2008 and ending on December 31, 2008 (each, a “Performance Period”) but in no event later than 90 days thereafter, Parent will deliver or cause to be delivered to the Xxxxx Trust and Xxxxx Xxxxxxx a statement for the applicable Performance Period (the “Net Income Statement”) setting forth the calculation of the net income (after taxes) of the Company for such Performance Period. The Net Income Statement shall be prepared using the audited financial statements of Parent and shall be final and binding on the parties. In order to facilitate the calculation of any Escrow Shares that shall be returned to the Company pursuant to this Section 1.19 and retired by the Company ("Forfeited Shares"), Parent shall account for the Company and its Subsidiaries separately from other assets held and businesses conducted by Parent and its Affiliates during the applicable Performance Period.

(b) Escrow Shares shall become Forfeited Shares, in which case such Forfeited Shares shall be taken from the Xxxxx Trust and Xxxxx Xxxxxxx (pro rata among them in accordance with the distribution of the Merger Consideration as set forth on Schedule 1.6(a)) within fifteen (15) Business Days following the delivery of the applicable Net Income Statement, as provided in Schedule 1.19 hereto. For the 2007 Performance Period, the difference between 12,333,333 shares less the Forfeited Shares for the 2007 Performance Period shall become Earned Shares pursuant to this Section 1.19. For the 2008 Performance Period, difference between 12,333,333 shares less the Forfeited Shares for the 2008 Performance Period shall become Earned Shares pursuant to this Section 1.19.

(c) The Net Income targets set forth on Schedule 1.19 shall be appropriately adjusted pro rata to reflect any stock issuances on a time-weighted basis (for example, an issuance of shares of Parent Common Stock (excluding the Escrow Shares and shares of Parent Common Stock issued upon exercise of options and warrants) on January 1, 2008 representing 5% of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of Parent on a fully-diluted basis shall increase targeted Net Income by 5% and an issuance of shares of Parent Common Stock (excluding the Escrow Shares and shares of Parent Common Stock issued upon exercise of options and warrants) on July 1, 2008 representing 5% of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of Parent on a fully-diluted basis shall increase targeted Net Income by 2.5%). Similarly, the number of Escrow Shares that become Forfeited Shares under this Section 1.19 and the target stock prices used above shall be appropriately adjusted for any stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations and similar events.

1.20 Outstanding Company Derivative Securities. The Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, arrange that the holders of all outstanding options, warrants and other derivative securities of the Company or any Subsidiary exercise such securities prior to the Effective Time. Such exercise may be made contingent upon the occurrence of the Closing and no Person shall have any right to acquire any ownership or other equity interest in the Company or any Subsidiary (other than Parent at Closing).

ARTICLE VII

INDEMNIFICATION

7.1 Indemnification of Parent and Company. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Article VII (including without limitation the limitations set forth in Section 7.4), Parent and the Company and their respective representatives, successors and permitted assigns (the “Parent Indemnitees”) shall be indemnified, defended and held harmless, severally by the Xxxxx Trust and Xxxxx Xxxxxxx pro rata in accordance with the distribution of the Merger Consideration issued to them, from and against all Losses asserted against, resulting to, imposed upon, or incurred by any Parent Indemnitee by reason of, arising out of or resulting from:

(i) the inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty of the Company contained in this Agreement, or any certificate delivered by the Company to Parent pursuant to this Agreement with respect hereto or thereto in connection with the Closing; and

(ii) the non-fulfillment or breach of any covenant or agreement of the Company contained in this Agreement.

(b) As used in this Article VII, the term “Losses” shall include all losses, liabilities, damages, judgments, awards, orders, penalties, settlements, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, interest, penalties, court costs and reasonable legal fees and expenses) including those arising from any demands, claims, suits, actions, costs of investigation, notices of violation or noncompliance, causes of action, proceedings and assessments whether or not made by third parties or whether or not ultimately determined to be valid. Solely for the purpose of determining the amount of any Losses (and not for determining any breach) for which any party may be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Article VII, any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement that is qualified by a term or terms such as “material,” “materially,” or “Material Adverse Effect” shall be deemed made or given without such qualification and without giving effect to such words.

7.2 Indemnification of Third Party Claims. The indemnification obligations and liabilities under this Article VII with respect to actions, proceedings, lawsuits, investigations, demands or other claims brought against Parent by a Person other than the Company (a “Third Party Claim”) shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

(a) Notice of Claim. Parent, acting through the Committee, will give the Members prompt written notice after receiving written notice of any Third Party Claim or discovering the liability, obligation or facts giving rise to such Third Party Claim (a “Notice of Claim”) which Notice of Third Party Claim shall set forth (i) a brief description of the nature of the Third Party Claim, (ii) the total amount of the actual out-of-pocket Loss or the anticipated potential Loss (including any costs or expenses which have been or may be reasonably incurred in connection therewith), and (iii) whether such Loss may be covered (in whole or in part) under any insurance and the estimated amount of such Loss which may be covered under such insurance, and the Representative shall be entitled to participate in the defense of Third Party Claim at its expense.

(b) Defense. The Members shall have the right, at their option (subject to the limitations set forth in subsection 7.2(c) below) at their own expense, by written notice to Parent, to assume the entire control of, subject to the right of Parent to participate (at its expense and with counsel of its choice) in, the defense, compromise or settlement of the Third Party Claim as to which such Notice of Claim has been given, and shall be entitled to appoint a recognized and reputable counsel reasonably acceptable to Parent to be the lead counsel in connection with such defense. If the Members are permitted and elect to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim:

(i) the Members shall diligently and in good faith defend such Third Party Claim and shall keep Parent reasonably informed of the status of such defense; provided, however, that in the case of any settlement providing for remedies other than monetary damages for which indemnification is provided, Parent shall have the right to approve the settlement, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld; and

(ii) Parent shall cooperate fully in all respects with the Members in any such defense, compromise or settlement thereof, including, without limitation, the selection of counsel, and Parent shall make available to the Members all pertinent information and documents under its control.

(c) Limitations of Right to Assume Defense. The Members shall not be entitled to assume control of such defense if (i) the Third Party Claim relates to or arises in connection with any criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation; (ii) the Third Party Claim seeks an injunction or equitable relief against Parent; or (iii) there is a reasonable probability that a Third Party Claim may materially and adversely affect Parent other than as a result of money damages or other money payments.

(d) Other Limitations. Failure to give prompt Notice of Claim or to provide copies of relevant available documents or to furnish relevant available data shall not affect the Members’ duty or obligations under this Article VII, except to the extent (and only to the extent that) such failure shall have adversely affected the ability of the Members to defend against or reduce the Members’ liability or caused or increased such liability or otherwise caused the damages for which the Members are obligated to be greater than such damages would have been had Parent given the Members prompt notice hereunder. So long as the Members are defending any such action actively and in good faith, Parent shall not settle such action. Parent shall make available to the Members all relevant records and other relevant materials required by them and in the possession or under the control of Parent, for the use of the Members in defending any such action, and shall in other respects give reasonable cooperation in such defense.

(e) Failure to Defend. If the Members, promptly after receiving a Notice of Claim, fail to defend such Third Party Claim actively and in good faith, Parent will (upon further written notice) have the right to undertake the defense, compromise or settlement of such Third Party Claim as it may determine in its reasonable discretion, provided that the Members shall have the right to approve any settlement, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(f) Parent’s Rights. Anything in this Section 7.2 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Members shall not, without the written consent of Parent, settle or compromise any action or consent to the entry of any judgment which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to Parent of a full and unconditional release from all liability and obligation in respect of such action without any payment by Parent.

(g) Members Consent. Unless the Members have consented to a settlement of a Third Party Claim, the amount of the settlement shall not be a binding determination of the amount of the Loss and, if applicable, such amount shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of the Escrow Agreement.

7.3 Insurance Effect. To the extent that any Losses that are subject to indemnification pursuant to this Article VII are covered by insurance, Parent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the maximum recovery under such insurance; provided that Parent shall nevertheless be entitled to bring a claim for indemnification under this Article VII in respect of such Losses and the time limitations set forth in Section 7.4 hereof for bringing a claim of indemnification under this Agreement shall be tolled during the pendency of such insurance claim. The existence of a claim by Parent for monies from an insurer or against a third party in respect of any Loss shall not, however, delay any payment pursuant to the indemnification provisions contained herein and otherwise determined to be due and owing. If Parent has received the payment required by this Agreement from the Members in respect of any Loss and later receives proceeds from insurance or other amounts in respect of such Loss, then it shall hold such proceeds or other amounts in trust for the benefit of the Members and shall pay to the Members, as promptly as practicable after receipt, a sum equal to the amount of such proceeds or other amount received, up to the aggregate amount of any payments received hereunder or from the Escrow Account, as applicable, pursuant to this Agreement in respect of such Loss. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, it is the intention of the parties that no insurer or any other third party shall be (i) entitled to a benefit it would not be entitled to receive in the absence of the foregoing indemnification provisions, or (ii) relieved of the responsibility to pay any claims for which it is obligated.

7.4 Limitations on Indemnification.

(a) Survival: Time Limitation. The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements in this Agreement or in any writing delivered by the Company to Parent in connection with this Agreement (including the certificate required to be delivered by the Company pursuant to Section 6.3(a)) shall survive the Closing until 18 months after the Closing Date (the “Survival Period”). The indemnification and other obligations under this Article VII shall survive for the same Survival Period and shall terminate with the expiration of such Survival Period, except that: (i) any claims for breach of representation or warranty made by a party hereunder by filing a demand for arbitration under Section 10.12 shall be preserved until final resolution thereof despite the subsequent expiration of the Survival Period and (ii) any claims set forth in a Notice of Claim sent prior to the expiration of such Survival Period shall survive until final resolution thereof. Except as set forth in clause (ii) above, no claim for indemnification under this Article VII shall be brought after the end of the applicable Survival Period.

(b) Deductible. No amount shall be payable under Article VII unless and until the aggregate amount of all indemnifiable Losses otherwise payable exceeds $500,000 in the aggregate (the “Deductible”), and no claim shall be made pursuant to this Article VII until such time as the aggregate of such Losses exceeds $500,000. For the avoidance of doubt, Losses in the amount of $500,000 shall function as a “deductible,” and only those amounts in excess of $500,000 shall be recoverable pursuant to this Article VII. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Deductible will not be applicable to claims arising from fraud, willful misrepresentation or willful misconduct.

(i) The aggregate liability for Losses pursuant to Section 7.1 during the first 12 months from the Closing Date (the “First Indemnity Period”), shall not in any event exceed the greater of (A) $10,000,000 in cash if 10,000,0000 shares of Parent Common Stock (the “Tranche One Escrow Shares”) are not deposited by the Escrow Agent in the Earned Shares Indemnity Escrow Account pursuant to the provisions of Section 1.15 hereof, or, (B) if applicable, the Tranche One Escrow Shares. If at any time during the First Indemnity Period, the number of Tranche One Escrow Shares in the Earned Shares Indemnity Escrow Account is equal to 10,000,000 shares, then the $10,000,000 cash indemnity obligation of the Xxxxx Trust and Xxxxx X. Xxxxxxx (the “Indemnifying Parties”) shall terminate and the sole liability for indemnification shall be against the Tranche One Escrow Shares.

(ii) The aggregate liability for Losses pursuant to Section 7.1 during the period beginning 12 months and one day from the Closing Date until 18 months from the Closing Date (the “Second Indemnity Period”), shall not in any event exceed the greater of (A) $10,000,000 in cash if less than 5,000,0000 shares of Parent Common Stock (the “Tranche Two Escrow Shares”) are in the Earned Shares Indemnity Escrow Account pursuant to the provisions of Section 1.15 hereof at the beginning of the Second Indemnity Period (to the extent not exhausted or terminated during the First Indemnity Period), or, (B) if applicable, the Tranche Two Escrow Shares. If at any time during the Second Indemnity Period, the number of Tranche Two Escrow Shares in the Earned Shares Indemnity Escrow Account is equal to 5,000,000 shares, then the $10,000,000 cash indemnity obligation of the Indemnifying Parties, if not already exhausted, shall terminate and the sole liability for indemnification shall be against the Tranche Two Escrow Shares.

(iii) Notwithstanding the terms of Section 7.4(c), in no event shall the cash portion of any liability for Losses during the First Indemnity Period and the Second Indemnity Period, collectively, exceed a total aggregate amount equal to $10,000,000 and in no event shall the total aggregate liability of the Indemnified Parties ever exceed a total value of $75,000,000.

(iv) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Aggregate Amount Limitation shall not apply in the case of claims arising from fraud, willful misrepresentation or willful misconduct but in no event shall the total liability for Losses to any Indemnifying Party exceed the Merger Consideration received by the Xxxxx Trust and Xxxxx X. Xxxxxxx less any taxes paid by them.

(v) To the extent that there is an indemnifiable Claim, the Claim shall be satisfied in the following order of priority: (A) during the First Indemnity Period, first, from the Tranche One Escrow Shares until such time as the Earned Shares Indemnity Escrow Account is reduced to zero and second, if less than 10,000,000 shares of Parent Common Stock were in the Earned Shares Indemnity Escrow Account, from the $10,000,000 by the Indemnifying Members and (B) during the Second Indemnity Period, first, from the Tranche Two Escrow Shares until such time as the Earned Shares Indemnity Escrow Account is reduced to zero and second, if less than 5,000,000 shares of Parent Common Stock were in the Earned Shares Indemnity Escrow Account, from the $10,000,000 by the Indemnifying Members.

(vi) For purposes of this Article VII, each share of Parent Common Stock included as Tranche One Escrow Shares and Tranche Two Escrow Shares shall at all times have a value equal to $7.50 notwithstanding the market price for the Parent Common Stock as reported on the OTC BB or any other applicable exchange or automated quotation system at the time any Claim is made hereunder.

(vii) If additional shares are required to be deposited in the Earned Shares Indemnity Escrow Account in accordance with Section 1.15 during either the First Indemnity Period or the Second Indemnity Period, and any amount of the Uncovered Claim continues to be unsatisfied, then the first shares of Parent Common Stock scheduled to be placed in the Earned Shares Indemnity Escrow Account shall be applied to the unsatisfied portion of the Uncovered Claim and the remaining shares to be deposited in the Earned Shares Indemnity Escrow Account shall be reduced by the quotient of: (1) the amount of cash paid by the Indemnifying Parties in connection with the Uncovered Claim divided by (2) $7.50. For the purposes of this Agreement, “Uncovered Claim” shall mean a Claim where the total value of such Claim exceeds the value of the Parent Common Stock then contained in the Earned Shares Indemnity Escrow Account during the relevant indemnity period.

For example:

During the First Indemnity Period, if there are 3,000,000 shares of Parent Common Stock in the Earned Shares Indemnity Escrow Account and an Uncovered Claim for an amount equal to $40,000,000 is made, then, those 3,000,000 shares are applied to that Uncovered Claim on a $7.50 valuation. The Indemnifying Parties still have a $10 million cash obligation because there are less than the total Tranche One Escrow Shares in the Earned Shares Indemnity Escrow Account. Thus, because the shares in the Earned Shares Indemnity Escrow Account are worth only $22,500,000 (3,000,000 x $7.50), then the Indemnifying Parties would have to pay up to $10 million in cash during the First Indemnity Period for a total indemnification payment of $32,500,000. If 5,000,000 shares of Parent Common Stock are subsequently scheduled to be placed in the Earned Shares Indemnity Escrow Account, then the first shares of Parent Common Stock scheduled to be placed in the Earned Shares Indemnity Escrow Account shall be applied to the remaining $7,500,000 of outstanding liability from the Uncovered Claim and the remaining shares to be deposited in the Earned Shares Indemnity Escrow Account shall be reduced by 1,333,000 shares of Parent Common Stock ($10,000,000 divided by $7.50).

7.5 Exclusive Remedy. Parent hereby acknowledges and agrees that, from and after the Closing, its sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims, whether direct, third party or otherwise, for money damages arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be pursuant and subject to the requirements of the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article VII. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, nothing contained in this Article VII shall in any way impair, modify or otherwise limit Parent’s or Company’s right to bring any claim, demand or suit against the other party based upon such other party’s actual fraud or intentional or willful misrepresentation or omission, it being understood that a mere breach of a representation and warranty, without intentional or willful misrepresentation or omission, does not constitute fraud.

7.6 Damages; No Adjustment to Merger Consideration. Amounts paid for indemnification under Article VII shall constitute damages paid by the Members for breach of contract and not as an adjustment to the value of the shares of Parent Common Stock issued by Parent as a result of the Merger.

7.7 Application of Escrow Shares. The parties acknowledge that all actions to be taken by Parent pursuant to this Article VII shall be taken on its behalf by the Committee in accordance with the provisions of the Escrow Agreement. The Escrow Agent, pursuant to the Escrow Agreement after the Closing, may apply all or a portion of the Escrow Shares to satisfy any claim for indemnification pursuant to this Article VII. The Escrow Agent will hold the remaining portion of the Escrow Shares until final resolution of all claims for indemnification or disputes relating thereto.

ARTICLE VIII

The sole remedy of any party hereto for breach of this Agreement occurring prior to Closing by any other party hereto shall be limited to termination of this Agreement, and no party shall have any claim against the other for damages of equitable relief for breach of this Agreement occurring prior to the Closing.

(f) all monetary amounts set forth herein are referenced in United States dollars, unless otherwise noted.

10.3 Counterparts; Facsimile Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other parties, it being understood that all parties need not sign the same counterpart. Delivery by facsimile or by email delivery of a “.pdf” format data file to counsel for the other party of a counterpart executed by a party shall be deemed to meet the requirements of the previous sentence.

10.4 Entire Agreement; Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement and the documents and instruments and other agreements among the parties hereto as contemplated by or referred to herein, including the Exhibits and Schedules hereto (a) constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, it being understood that the proposed summary of terms between Parent and the Company dated February 23, 2007 is hereby terminated in its entirety and shall be of no further force and effect; and (b) are not intended to confer upon any other Person any rights or remedies hereunder (except as specifically provided in this Agreement). The representations and warranties contained in this Agreement and made by the parties hereto were made to and solely for the benefit of each other.

10.5 Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof, becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement will continue in full force and effect and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances will be interpreted so as reasonably to effect the intent of the parties hereto. The parties further agree to replace such void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such void or unenforceable provision.

10.6 Other Remedies; Specific Performance. Except as otherwise provided herein, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such party, and the exercise by a party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any court of the United States or any state having jurisdiction, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.

10.7 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of Delaware regardless of the law that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of law thereof.

10.8 Rules of Construction. The parties hereto agree that they have been represented by counsel during the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and, therefore, waive the application of any law, regulation, holding or rule of construction providing that ambiguities in an agreement or other document will be construed against the party drafting such agreement or document.

10.9 Assignment. No party may assign either this Agreement or any of its rights, interests, or obligations hereunder without the prior written approval of the other parties. Subject to the first sentence of this Section 10.9, this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

10.10 Amendment. This Agreement may be amended by the parties hereto at any time by execution of an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the parties.

10.11 Extension; Waiver. At any time prior to the Closing, any party hereto may, to the extent legally allowed, (i) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other parties hereto, (ii) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties made to such party contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto and (iii) waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions for the benefit of such party contained herein. Any agreement on the part of a party hereto to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such party. Delay in exercising any right under this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such right.

10.12 Jurisdiction and Venue. Any civil action or legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be brought in the federal and state courts located in the State of Delaware. Each party consents to the jurisdiction of such Delaware court in any such civil action or legal proceeding and waives any objection to the laying of venue of any such civil action or legal proceeding in such Delaware court. Service of any court paper may be effected on such party by mail, as provided in this Agreement, or in such other manner as may be provided under applicable laws, rules of procedure or local rules.

10.13 JURY WAIVER. IN ANY CIVIL ACTION, COUNTERCLAIM, OR PROCEEDING, WHETHER AT LAW OR IN EQUITY, WHICH ARISES OUT OF, CONCERNS, OR RELATES TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY AND ALL TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT, THE PERFORMANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT, OR THE RELATIONSHIP CREATED BY THIS AGREEMENT, WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE, TRIAL SHALL BE TO A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION AND NOT TO A JURY. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY. ANY PARTY MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT WITH ANY COURT, AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT OF THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY. NEITHER PARTY HAS MADE OR RELIED UPON ANY ORAL REPRESENTATIONS TO OR BY ANY OTHER PARTY REGARDING THE ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS PROVISION. EACH PARTY HAS READ AND UNDERSTANDS THE EFFECT OF THIS JURY WAIVER PROVISION. EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS BEEN ADVISED BY ITS OWN COUNSEL WITH RESPECT TO THE TRANSACTION GOVERNED BY THIS AGREEMENT AND SPECIFICALLY WITH RESPECT TO THE TERMS OF THIS SECTION.
