(the “WARN Act”) (or any similar state, local or foreign law) affecting any site of employment or one or more facilities or operating units within any site of employment or facility of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries or (ii) a “mass layoff” as defined in the WARN Act (or any similar state, local or foreign law) affecting any site of employment or facility of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, and which liability therefor remains unsatisfied.

Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has incurred, nor shall any of them become liable for, any brokerage commissions, finders’ fees or similar compensation in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement based on any arrangement or agreement made by or on behalf of Seller, the Company or any of their Affiliates, other than any fees and expenses of Xxxxxxxxxxx & Co. Inc., which fees and expenses shall be paid by Seller.

3.20 Permits. Schedule 3.20 contains a list of all material permits and licenses of Governmental Authorities (collectively, the “Permits”) owned or possessed by the Company or its Subsidiaries, and no other permits and licenses of governmental entities are required in the conduct of their respective businesses or used by the Company and its Subsidiaries in the conduct of their businesses, in each case as of the date of this Agreement, except where the failure to obtain, own, possess and/or use such other permits and licenses of Governmental Authorities would not reasonably be expected to materially interfere with or limit the operation of the respective businesses of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the date of this Agreement. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries are in default or violation (and no event has occurred which, with notice or the lapse of time or both, would constitute a default or violation) of any term, condition or provision of any Permit to which it is a party, except which such default or violation would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No proceeding to modify, suspend, revoke, withdraw, terminate or otherwise limit in any material respect any such Permit is pending or, to the Company’s knowledge, threatened.

3.21 Product Warranties. Schedule 3.21 sets forth the standard written forms of product and service warranties and guarantees utilized by the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the date of this Agreement. There has not been any claim under any contractual warranty, guaranty or other indemnity with respect to the Company’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ products or

services during a period of three (3) years prior to the Closing Date, except for claims which do not exceed $500,000 in any single case, or $1,000,000 in the aggregate. All material service or warranty liabilities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to customers or other Persons as of June 30, 2010, are reflected on the Financial Statements to the extent required by GAAP, and the reserve for warranty liabilities reflected thereon has been determined and recorded in accordance with GAAP consistently applied as of such date.

Seller has made available to Buyer a list of all accounts receivable of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of September 30, 2010, together with a range of days elapsed since invoice. Except to the extent, if any, reserved for in the Financial Statements, all accounts receivable of the Company and its Subsidiaries reflected on the Financial Statements arose from, and all accounts receivable of the Company and its Subsidiaries existing on the Closing Date have arisen from, the sale of inventory or services rendered in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice to Persons not Affiliated with Seller, the Company or their respective Subsidiaries. Since the date of the Latest Balance Sheet, the Company has not sold or factored more than $4,400,000 of accounts receivable. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.23(i), no Person has any Lien on any of the accounts receivable of the Company and its Subsidiaries. As of the date hereof, the Company does not reasonably expect that the collections rate of its and its Subsidiaries’ currently outstanding accounts receivable will be materially worse than its historical collection rate.

3.24 Foreign Corrupt Practices. None of the Company, its Subsidiaries, or any director, officer, agent, employee or other Person acting on behalf of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries has, in the course of its actions for, or on behalf of, the Company or its Subsidiaries (i) used any corporate funds for any unlawful contribution, gift, entertainment or other unlawful expenses relating to political activity; (ii) made any direct or indirect unlawful payment to any foreign or domestic government official or employee from corporate funds; (iii) violated or is in violation of any provision of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended or any rules or regulations thereunder; or (iv) made any unlawful bribe, rebate, payoff, influence payment, kickback or other unlawful payment to any foreign or domestic government official or employee.

3.25 Customers. Schedule 3.25 sets forth the names of the top 20 customers of the Company and its Subsidiaries that purchased goods or services from the Company or its Subsidiaries based on total revenues received from such customers during the twelve (12) month period ended June 30, 2010, and the amount for which each such customer was invoiced during such period. Except as disclosed in Schedule 3.25, neither Seller, the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has received any notice that any such customer of the Company or its Subsidiaries will not purchase goods or services from the Company in the future.

3.26 Suppliers. Schedule 3.26 sets forth the names of the top 20 suppliers from which the Company and its Subsidiaries ordered raw materials, supplies, merchandise and other goods for the Company and its Subsidiaries based on the amount paid to each supplier by the Company during the twelve (12) month period ended June 30, 2010, and the amount paid to each such supplier by the Company or such Subsidiary during such period. Except as disclosed in Schedule 3.26, neither Seller, the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has received any notice that any such supplier will not sell raw materials, supplies, merchandise or other goods to the Company or its Subsidiaries in the future.

3.27 Sufficiency of Assets.

(a) Schedule 3.27(a) contains a true and complete list of all of the properties, assets, rights, Contracts and claims of Seller and its Subsidiaries (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries) used or held for use in, or necessary for, the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries as presently conducted, and of all services performed for the Company and its Subsidiaries by Seller and its Subsidiaries (other than the Company).

(b) Following the Closing, neither Seller nor any of its Subsidiaries (other than the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) will have any interest in any properties, rights and assets used in or relating to the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries as presently conducted.

3.28 Complete Copies of Materials. The Company has made available to Buyer true and complete copies of each of the documents listed or referred to on the Disclosure Schedules.

3.29 Grants and Benefits. Schedule 3.29 provides a list of all material pending and outstanding grants, incentives, Tax benefits, subsidies and other similar benefits or incentives, and all applications therefor (collectively, “Grants”), provided by a Governmental Authority to or for the benefit of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or applicable to or affecting any of their respective businesses, properties, rights or assets. The Company provided to Buyer, prior to the date hereof, true and correct copies of all documents evidencing Grants submitted by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, and all letters of approval and supplements thereto, granted to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. Schedule 3.29 sets forth a summary of the Company’s estimated savings and benefits under the Grants for the time periods and types of savings and benefits specified therein. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.29, the Company or its Subsidiary, as appropriate, is in compliance, in all material respects, with the terms and conditions of their respective Grants and has duly fulfilled, in all material respects, all the undertakings relating thereto. No submissions made to any Governmental Authority in connection with obtaining any Grant contained any misstatement or omission that would have affected the granting of such Grant. As of the date hereof, the Company has not been informed in writing by a Governmental Authority that they have any intent to revoke or materially modify any of the Grants. To the Company’s knowledge, the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in and of itself will not have any adverse effect on the continued validity and effectiveness of any such Grants. Each Subsidiary has, in accordance with applicable Law, duly registered with the relevant Governmental Authority and obtained and maintained the validity of all national and local tax registration certificates. To the Company’s knowledge, the Company has not taken or omitted to take any action that can reasonably be

expected to form the basis of any Governmental Authorities rejecting the renewal or extension of the Grants with respect to the High-Technology Enterprise status as the current three-year term of such status is due to expire.

3.30 Director and Officer Claims. No director or officer of the Company or its Subsidiaries has made a claim for indemnification pursuant to the certificate of incorporation, bylaws or other similar organizational documents of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any other agreement with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, and, to the Company’s knowledge, no basis for any such claim exists. Schedule 3.30 sets forth each of the directors and officers of the Company and its Subsidiaries. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.30, none of the directors or officers of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is an employee of Seller or its Subsidiaries (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries).

3.31 Termination of Intercompany Obligations, Guarantees and Indemnity Obligations. As of the Closing Date, Seller has caused to be terminated and cancelled all (i) intercompany accounts payable by the Company and its Subsidiaries to Seller and its Subsidiaries (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries) and (ii) intercompany accounts payable (other than commercial accounts payable related to the sale of products or services, if any, included in the accounts receivable line in the Latest Balance Sheet or that would be included in a consolidated, unaudited balance sheet of the Company and its Subsidiaries prepared in the same manner as the Latest Balance Sheet on the Closing Date) by the Seller and its Subsidiaries (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries) to the Company and its Subsidiaries. The intercompany payable line on the Latest Balance Sheet is calculated on a net basis, and, for the avoidance of doubt, the accounts receivable line on the Latest Balance Sheet does not include such commercial accounts receivable from MRV and its Subsidiaries (excluding the Company and its Subsidiaries). As of the Closing Date, Seller has caused to be terminated and cancelled all indemnity obligations from the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to Seller or its Subsidiaries (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries). None of the Company’s Cash on Hand was used to satisfy any such intercompany accounts payable on or after September 30, 2010. As of the Closing Date, Seller has caused the Company and its Subsidiaries to be released from any obligation to guarantee or provide indemnity for any obligation of Seller and its Subsidiaries (except the Company and its Subsidiaries) to a third party and has caused the beneficiaries of any such guarantees or indemnities to release the Company from any liabilities or obligations under each such guarantee and indemnity.

3.32 No Other Representations. Except for the representations and warranties contained in Article II and this Article III, as qualified by the Disclosure Schedules delivered pursuant hereto, and as made in any certificate delivered at Closing pursuant to this Agreement, none of the Company, its Subsidiaries, Seller or any other Person makes any express or implied representation or warranty in respect or on behalf of the Company, its Subsidiaries or Seller, and the Company and Seller disclaim any such representation or warranty, whether by Seller, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents or representatives or any other Person, with respect to the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the business or assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, notwithstanding the delivery or disclosure to Buyer or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents or representatives or any other Person of any documentation or other information with respect to the foregoing.

ARTICLE V.

COVENANTS OF SELLER AND THE COMPANY

5.01 Access to Books and Records. After the Closing, Seller shall from time to time provide Buyer and its authorized representatives (including, without limitation, its legal advisors and accountants) with reasonable access, upon advance notice and during normal business hours, to the books and records relating to the Company and its Subsidiaries in Seller’s possession as Buyer reasonably requests and to make extracts and copies of such books and records. Effective upon, and only upon, the consummation of the Closing, the Confidentiality Agreement shall terminate. Unless otherwise consented to in writing by Buyer, Seller shall not, for a period of six years following the Closing Date, destroy, alter or otherwise dispose of any of its books and records, or any portions thereof, relating to the Company and its Subsidiaries for periods on or prior to the Closing Date without first giving at least 30 days prior written notice to Buyer and offering to surrender to Buyer such books and records or such portions thereof.

5.02 Confidentiality. Seller recognizes that by reason of its ownership of the Company and its Subsidiaries, Seller and its Subsidiaries (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries) have acquired confidential information and trade secrets concerning the Company and its Subsidiaries and the Company and its Subsidiaries’ business the use or disclosure of which could cause Buyer or its Subsidiaries (including the Company and its Subsidiaries) substantial loss and

damages that could not be readily calculated and for which no remedy at law would be adequate. Accordingly, Seller covenants and agrees with Buyer that neither Seller nor any of its Subsidiaries will at any time, except in performance of their respective obligations to Buyer or with the prior written consent of Buyer, directly or indirectly, disclose any proprietary, secret or confidential information relating to the Company and its Subsidiaries and the Company and its Subsidiaries’ business that any such Person may learn or has learned by reason of its ownership of the Company and its Subsidiaries and the Company and its Subsidiaries’ business, unless (i) such information becomes known to the public generally through no fault of Seller or any of its Subsidiaries, (ii) disclosure is required by applicable Law, or (iii) such information was not previously known to Seller or any of its Subsidiaries but becomes rightfully known to Seller or such Subsidiary after Closing, without restriction, from a source (other than Buyer and its Subsidiaries) not related to Seller’s prior ownership of the Company and its Subsidiaries and the Company and its Subsidiaries’ business and without any breach of duty to Buyer or its Subsidiaries. The parties hereto agree that the covenant contained in this Section 5.02 imposes a reasonable restraint on Seller and its Subsidiaries and employees.

5.03 Non-Competition.

(a) In consideration of Buyer entering into this Agreement and in order that Buyer may enjoy the full benefit of the business of the Company, for a period of three (3) years from and after the Closing Date, neither Seller nor any of its Subsidiaries shall, directly or indirectly, whether as principal, agent, partner, officer, director, stockholder, employee, consultant or otherwise, alone or in association with any other Person, own, manage, operate, control, participate in, invest in (other than an investment that results in such Person owning less than 2% of the outstanding voting stock of a publicly traded company) or carry on a business which, directly or indirectly, is in competition with the Company or its Subsidiaries as conducted on the date hereof; provided, however, that Seller shall be allowed to (i) sell the Appointech, Inc. (“Appointech”) business to any third party or parties which is not an Affiliate of Seller or its Subsidiaries and (ii) continue operation of the business of Appointech, without material expansion of or deviation from the business of Appointech as historically conducted; provided, further, however, that no restrictions pursuant to this Section 5.03(a) shall apply with respect to Appointech following the closing of any sale of Appointech to a third party which is not an Affiliate of Seller or its Subsidiaries.

(b) Seller acknowledges and agrees that the remedy at law for any breach, or threatened breach, of any of the provisions of this Section 5.03 will be inadequate and, accordingly, Seller covenants and agrees that Buyer shall, in addition to any other rights and remedies which Buyer may have at Law, be entitled to equitable relief, including injunctive relief, and to the remedy of specific performance with respect to any breach or threatened breach of such covenant, as may be available from any court of competent jurisdiction. In addition, Seller and Buyer agree that the terms of the covenant in this Section 5.03 are fair and reasonable in light of Buyer’s plans for the business of the Company and are necessary to accomplish the full transfer of the goodwill and other intangible assets contemplated hereby. In the event that any of the covenants contained in this Section 5.03 shall be determined by any court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable for any reason whatsoever, then any such provision or provisions shall not be deemed void, and the parties hereto agree that said limits may be modified by the court and that said covenant contained in this Section 5.03 shall be amended in

accordance with said modification, it being specifically agreed by the parties that it is their continuing desire that this covenant be enforced to the full extent of its terms and conditions or if a court finds the scope of the covenant unenforceable, the court should redefine the covenant so as to comply with applicable Law.

5.04 Non-Solicitation. For a period of two (2) years after the Closing Date, Seller shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, whether for their own account or for the account of any Person, solicit, offer employment to or hire any individual that is employed by the Company or its Subsidiaries on the Closing Date; provided, however, that Seller and its Subsidiaries shall not be prohibited from (i) initiating searches for employees through the use of general advertisement or through the engagement of firms to conduct searches that are not targeted or focused on the Company and its Subsidiaries (and the hiring of employees that respond to any such searches), (ii) hiring any such employee not employed by the Company or its Subsidiaries at the time of solicitation or (iii) hiring any employee who contacts Seller or its Subsidiaries on his or her own initiative.

5.05 Successors. In the event that Seller (or any of its successors or assigns) shall (i) consolidate or merge with any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity in such consolidation or merger, (ii) transfer all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any other Person, or (iii) adopt a plan of dissolution or liquidation, then in each case proper provision shall be made so that the continuing or surviving corporation or entity (or its successors or assigns, if applicable), or transferee of such assets, or such liquidating trust or other agent, as the case may be, shall expressly assume all of Seller’s obligations under this Agreement, including Seller’s obligations pursuant to Article VII and Section 8.03 hereof, which shall continue in effect after the consummation of such transaction. Prior to any such transaction, Seller shall notify Buyer of any transaction that would trigger the terms of this Section 5.05 and the terms thereof, including the identity of the continuing or surviving corporation or entity, transferee, liquidating trust or other agent, as the case may be.

5.06 Third Party Consents. Seller shall, subsequent to the Closing, use reasonable best efforts to obtain those consents required for the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby under the contracts set forth on, or required to be set forth on, Schedule 3.04 (the “Consents”) and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide assistance for any notices required to be given under the contracts set forth on, or required to be set forth on, Schedule 3.04, as applicable. If a Consent cannot be obtained, Seller shall use its reasonable best efforts to provide the Company with substantially similar rights and benefits of the affected contract for the term thereof, and to enable Buyer to conduct the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries until such Consent is obtained and shall indemnify Buyer for any losses suffered by the Company or its Subsidiaries for any Losses resulting from the loss of the benefits of such contract. If Seller provides the rights and benefits under any such contract, the Company shall assume the obligations and burdens under such contract.

ARTICLE VI.

COVENANTS OF BUYER

6.01 Access to Books and Records. From and after the Closing, Buyer shall, and shall cause the Company to (a) provide Seller and its authorized representatives with reasonable access (for the purpose of examining and copying), upon advance notice and during normal business hours, to the books and records of the Company and its Subsidiaries with respect to periods on or prior to the Closing Date and/or in connection with any matter relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and (b) make available and deliver to Seller, in a timely manner, the records, files, data and information, including the information consisting of the Company’s consolidation file and other disclosure schedules, necessary for Seller to prepare and complete its quarterly and annual consolidated financial statements and other public reports required to be filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, for each of the periods (i) beginning on July 1, 2010 through September 30, 2010 and (ii) beginning on October 1, 2010 through the Closing Date, in each case consistent with past practice. Unless otherwise consented to in writing by Seller, Buyer shall not permit the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, for a period of six (6) years following the Closing Date, to destroy, alter or otherwise dispose of any of its books and records, or any portions thereof, relating to the Company and its Subsidiaries for periods on or prior to the Closing Date without first giving at least thirty (30) days prior written notice to Seller and offering to surrender to Seller such books and records or such portions thereof.

6.02 Directors and Officer Liability. The Company and its Subsidiaries shall have no obligation post-Closing to indemnify or advance any expenses to any director or officer of the Company and its Subsidiaries if such individual is or was a director, officer or employee of Seller or its Subsidiaries (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries) as of or prior to the Closing Date, and Seller shall indemnify the Company in connection with any such payment or related claim.

6.03 Employees and Employee Benefits.

(a) Continuing Employees. Seller shall take all necessary action to ensure that upon the Closing, (i) all Employees will cease to participate in, and (ii) the Company and/or its Subsidiaries shall cease to be “participating employers” (or comparable participating entities) under, each of the Seller Benefit Plans; provided, however, that Seller shall continue to provide benefits under Seller Benefit Plans to the Continuing Employees (as defined below) and any Employees hired following the date of the Closing under the Seller Benefit Plans set forth on Schedule 6.03(a) for the period beginning upon the Closing and through December 31, 2010, to the extent to which the Continuing Employees participate in each such Seller Benefit Plan immediately prior to the Closing. Buyer will reimburse Seller for Seller’s actual costs (determined based on premium or self-insured equivalent rates) in providing such benefits promptly, but in no event later than thirty (30) days after receipt of Seller’s invoice for such costs. In addition, to the extent that Seller or any Seller Benefit Plan incurs any cost, expense or other Loss resulting from any Seller Benefit Plan being characterized by an appropriate

Governmental Authority as a “multi-employer welfare arrangement” (within the meaning of ERISA), Buyer shall indemnify and hold Seller harmless against such cost, expense or other Loss and shall promptly reimburse any such amounts to Seller upon receipt of notice thereof from Seller. From and after the date through which such benefits continue, Seller shall retain all obligations and liabilities under the Seller Benefit Plans, and neither Buyer nor any of its Affiliates will have any obligation or liability with respect thereto. Neither the Buyer nor any of its Affiliates shall assume sponsorship or any liability with respect to any of the Seller Benefit Plans or any part thereof, and no Seller Benefit Plan and no assets of any Seller Benefit Plan will be transferred to Buyer or any of its Affiliates or to any plan of Buyer or any of its Affiliates. Upon the Closing, each individual who is an employee of the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries (an “Employee”) immediately prior to the Closing shall continue as an employee of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates immediately after the Closing (each, a “Continuing Employee”). For purposes of this Section 6.03(a), the term “Employee” shall include any individual who, on the Closing Date, is on an authorized medical or short-term (but not long-term) disability leave of absence or any other approved leave of absence from the Company or any of its Subsidiaries who return to full time status within six (6) months after the Closing. Nothing contained in this Section 6.03(a) shall limit the right of Buyer or any of its Affiliates to terminate the employment of any Continuing Employee after the Closing.

(b) Credit. With respect to each “employee benefit plan” (as such term is defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA) that is maintained, sponsored or contributed to by Buyer or its Subsidiaries (the “Buyer Plans”) in which any Continuing Employee becomes eligible to participate, Buyer shall: (A) ensure that each Continuing Employee shall receive full credit for purposes of eligibility for such employees’ service with the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the Closing, to the extent such credit was recognized under comparable Employee Benefit Plans immediately prior to the Closing (including, without limitation, for purposes of determining benefit levels applicable under any severance or termination pay arrangement), and (B) make commercially reasonable efforts to cause there to be waived any eligibility requirements or pre-existing condition limitations and give effect, in determining any deductible and maximum out-of-pocket limitations, to amounts paid by Continuing Employees under comparable Employee Benefit Plans, in each case, to the extent waived and given effect (as applicable) under comparable Employee Benefit Plans immediately prior to the Closing.

(c) Employment Practices. From and after the Closing, the Company and its Subsidiaries shall be solely responsible for, and Buyer shall indemnify, defend and hold the Seller and its Affiliates harmless from and against, any Losses arising from or relating to any acts or omissions of Buyer or its Affiliates (including the Company and its Subsidiaries) in connection with the employment or termination of employment of the Continuing Employees.

(d) Performance. From and after the Closing, Buyer shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to honor in accordance with their terms all agreements between either such party and any Continuing Employee as set forth on Schedule 6.03(d) and to continue to satisfy all other legal obligations of the Company to any Company Employees.

(e) Allocation. For purposes of allocating responsibility under this Section 6.03, a medical claim is deemed incurred when the services that are the subject of the claim are performed; in the case of hospitalization, upon commencement of hospitalization; in the case of

life insurance, when the death occurs; in the case of long-term disability benefits, the later of when the disability is determined to have occurred by the Company’s insurance carrier or when the employee ceased active employment as a result of the disability; and, in the case of workers’ compensation, when the event giving rise to the claim occurs.

(f) COBRA. Buyer shall (i) assume any and all obligations to provide continuation coverage pursuant to Section 601 of ERISA, et. seq. (“COBRA”), with respect to Continuing Employees and their qualified beneficiaries (excluding any individual who became a qualified beneficiary prior to Closing), and (ii) indemnify Seller and its Affiliates for any and all Losses incurred as a result of Buyer’s failure to provide continuation coverage to any Continuing Employee or qualified beneficiary (excluding any individual who became a qualified beneficiary prior to Closing), including, but not limited to, any Losses or excise taxes arising pursuant to Code Section 4980B. Notwithstanding the foregoing, during any transition period during which Continuing Employees receive benefits under Seller benefit plans in accordance with Section 6.03(a) above, Seller shall provide continuation coverage under its plans as required by COBRA, the costs of which shall be reimbursed by Buyer in accordance with Section 6.03(a) above.

(g) No Other Rights. Nothing in this Section 6.03 shall be deemed to create or confer any rights or remedies (including any agreement for employment or other benefits) in any Person other than the parties hereto.

6.04 Insurance; Risk of Loss.

(a) As of the close of business on the Closing Date: (i) Seller will terminate or cause its Affiliates to terminate all insurance coverage with respect to events occurring on or after the Closing Date relating to the Company and its Subsidiaries and their respective businesses, assets and employees under the policies of insurance of Seller maintained for the benefit of all of its controlled subsidiaries, including the Company and its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that (A) no such termination of any “occurrence based” policy in force as of the Closing Date shall be effected so as to prevent the Company and its Subsidiaries from recovering under such policies for losses covered thereby from events occurring on or prior to the Closing Date, it being understood that the Company and its Subsidiaries shall be responsible for any deductible payable under the terms of the applicable policy in connection with any such claims; (B) no such termination of any “claims made” policy in force as of the Closing Date shall be effected so as to prevent the Company and its Subsidiaries from recovering under such policies for losses covered thereby arising from or out of any claim made on or prior to the Closing Date, it being understood that the Company and its Subsidiaries shall be responsible for any deductible payable under the terms of the applicable policy in connection with any such claims; and (ii) Buyer shall become solely responsible for all insurance coverage and related risk of loss with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries and their respective businesses, assets and employees in connection with events occurring on or after the Closing Date.

(b) Seller shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with Buyer and its Affiliates to make claims for indemnification under the terms of the policies set forth in clause (a) above.

6.05 Non-Solicitation. For a period of two (2) years after the Closing Date, Buyer shall cause the Company and the Company’s Subsidiaries not to, whether for their own account or for the account of any Person, solicit, offer employment to or hire any individual that is employed by Seller or its Subsidiaries (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries) on the Closing Date; provided, however, that the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not be prohibited from (i) initiating searches for employees through the use of general advertisement or through the engagement of firms to conduct searches that are not targeted or focused on Seller and its Subsidiaries (and the hiring of employees that respond to any such searches), (ii) hiring any such employee not employed by Seller or its Subsidiaries at the time of solicitation or (iii) hiring any employee who contacts the Company or its Subsidiaries on his or her own initiative.

6.06 Restricted Stock Unit Awards. Following the Closing, SPI shall, and Buyer shall cause SPI to (i) send, upon or within 15 Business Days after the Closing Date, an RSU acknowledgement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “RSU Acknowledgement”) to each holder of a Restricted Stock Unit Award listed on Schedule 6.06 (each, an “RSU Holder”) and (ii) pay from the Aggregate RSU Amount, on the 45th day following the Closing Date (or if such date is not a Business Day, the first Business Day thereafter) (in any case, the “RSU Settlement Date”), to each RSU Holder who has delivered an executed RSU Acknowledgement back to SPI on or prior to the fifth day prior to the RSU Settlement Date, the amounts listed next to the name of such RSU Holder on Schedule 6.06 (subject to applicable tax withholding requirements). Seller shall have taken all action necessary or desirable to ensure that all Restricted Stock Unit Awards shall terminate upon the Closing and, except as expressly provided in this Section 6.06, RSU Holders shall have no rights or interest in Restricted Stock Unit Awards thereafter, other than the right to receive the amount listed next to such RSU Holders’ name on Schedule 6.06. Notwithstanding the foregoing, payments to RSU Holders pursuant to this Section 6.06 shall be subject to and conditioned upon the RSU Holder’s execution and delivery of an RSU Acknowledgement in accordance herewith; in no event shall SPI pay any portion of the Aggregate RSU Amount to any RSU Holder who has not delivered to SPI an executed RSU Acknowledgement. All payments made by SPI at any time relating to or in connection with a claim by any Person to rights under any Restricted Stock Unit Awards shall be offset by the remaining Aggregate RSU Amount until the remaining Aggregate RSU Amount is zero, and thereafter such amounts shall be indemnifiable Losses pursuant to Article VII and Seller shall be responsible for and shall pay any such amounts.

6.07 Lease Guaranty. Buyer, the Company and its Subsidiaries shall indemnify Seller for any and all Losses arising out of, relating to, or in connection with Seller’s obligations under that certain Guaranty of Lease given by Seller to Xxxxxxxx Industrial Complex, dated August 19, 2004.

ARTICLE VII.

INDEMNIFICATION

7.01 Survival of Representations, Warranties, Covenants and Agreements. The representations, warranties, and agreements set forth in this Agreement and in any certificates delivered at the Closing in connection with this Agreement shall survive the Closing until the 15-

month anniversary of the Closing Date notwithstanding any investigation at any time made by or on behalf of Buyer and shall thereafter be of no further force or effect; provided, however, that (a) any covenant or agreement required to be performed or complied with following the Closing Date will survive the Closing in accordance with its terms, (b) the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.11 shall survive the Closing and continue in full force and effect until the 36-month anniversary of the Closing Date notwithstanding any investigation at any time made by or on behalf of Buyer and shall thereafter be of no further force or effect, (c) the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.09, 3.13 and 3.16 shall survive the Closing and continue in full force and effect until the date that is ninety (90) days after the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations and shall thereafter be of no further force or effect, and (d) the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 2.01, 2.02, 2.03, 3.01(a), 3.02, 3.03, 3.05(b), 3.06(e), 3.19, 3.27(a), 4.01, 4.02 and 4.05 will survive the Closing indefinitely (the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.09 and the sections listed in this Section 7.01(d), the “Specified Representations”).

7.02 Indemnification by Seller for the Benefit of Buyer.

(a) Subject to the provisions of this Article VII, from and after the Closing, Seller shall indemnify and hold Buyer, its Affiliates (including the Company and its Subsidiaries) and its and their respective officers, directors, partners, members, employees, agents, representatives, successors and permitted assigns (collectively, the “Buyer Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and against any and all losses, liabilities, obligations, damages, Proceedings, demands, claims, assessments, judgments, penalties, costs and expenses, including attorneys’ and other professionals’ fees and disbursements and the costs of investigation and litigation (collectively, “Expenses”) (collectively, with any Expenses, “Losses”), which the Buyer Indemnified Parties may incur, accrue or suffer based upon, attributable to or resulting from: (i) any breach by Seller of any representation or warranty set forth in Article II or Article III of this Agreement or any certificate delivered by or on behalf of Seller hereunder at the Closing, (ii) any breach of any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement to be performed or complied with by the Company at the Closing, (iii) any breach of any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement to be performed or complied with by Seller, (iv) any inaccuracy in the Minimum Cash Certificate, if and to the extent that the actual amount of Cash on Hand as of the Closing was less than the Minimum Cash Amount, or that the actual amount of Cash on Hand located in bank or brokerage accounts in the United States as of the Closing was less than the US Minimum Cash Amount (it being agreed that the amount of any such inaccuracy is an indemnifiable Loss hereunder), (v) any Losses in respect of or related to any Seller Benefit Plan under Title IV of ERISA, or Section 412 or Section 4975 of the Code and (vi) the matters set forth on Schedule 7.02; provided, however, that any claim for indemnification relating to, arising out of, or in connection with the Restricted Stock Unit Awards shall be brought as a Third Party Claim pursuant to Section 7.05, and Losses with respect to such claim shall first be offset by the remaining Aggregate RSU Amount until the remaining Aggregate RSU Amount is zero and thereafter may be sought directly against Seller.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, (i) Seller shall not have any liability under clause (i) of Section 7.02(a) above, unless the aggregate amount of all Losses relating thereto for which Seller would be liable, but for this section (including the proviso to this clause (i)), exceeds on a cumulative basis $1,000,000 (the

“Deductible”), and then only to the extent such Losses exceed the Deductible; provided, that Seller shall not have any liability under clause (i) of Section 7.02(a) above for any claim or group of related claims if the Losses relating to such claim or group of related claims are less than $10,000 in the aggregate (the “Mini-Basket”), and (ii) the aggregate liability of Seller under clause (i) of Section 7.02(a) shall in no event exceed $20,000,000 (the “Cap”). The Deductible, the Mini-Basket and the Cap shall not apply to breaches of any of the Specified Representations or to any claim for indemnification under clauses (ii) through (vi) of Section 7.02(a), nor shall any breaches of any of the Specified Representations or any claim for indemnification under clauses (ii) through (vi) of Section 7.02(a) be taken into account in the calculation of whether the Deductible or the Cap have been met. The Mini-Basket shall cease to apply when $300,000 worth of Losses for which the Buyer Indemnified Parties would have otherwise been able to seek indemnification from Seller pursuant to clause (i) of Section 7.02(a) above were excluded by application of the Mini-Basket.

(c) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary (other than Section 8.03), Seller shall not be liable to, or indemnify, the Buyer Indemnified Parties for any Losses that are punitive, special, consequential, incidental, exemplary or otherwise not actual damages (except to the extent constituting and paid in respect of Third Party Claims). The Buyer Indemnified Parties shall not use “multiple of profits” or “multiple of cash flow” or any similar valuation methodology in calculating the amount of any Losses not constituting Third Party Claims; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not limit Losses resulting from any final, non-appealable injunction, court order, judgment or binding settlement materially restricting the freedom of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to operate its business as the same is conducted as of the date hereof. This Section 7.02 constitutes the Buyer Indemnified Parties’ sole and exclusive remedy for any and all Losses or other claims relating to or arising from this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (other than with respect to Taxes as to which Section 8.03 governs). For the avoidance of doubt, following the Closing, Seller shall not be liable for any Losses or liabilities of Buyer, Company and its Subsidiaries, other than those set forth in this Agreement.

(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, solely for purposes of Seller’s indemnification obligations under this Article VII, all of the representations and warranties of Seller and the Company set forth in this Agreement or any certificate or schedule that are qualified as to “material,” “materiality,” “material respects,” “Material Adverse Effect” or words of similar import or effect shall be deemed to have been made without any such qualification for purposes of determining (i) whether a breach of any such representation or warranty has occurred and (ii) the amount of Losses resulting from, arising out of or relating to any such breach of representation or warranty; provided, that the foregoing clause (i) shall not apply to the representation and warranty in the first sentence of Section 3.07, the representations and warranties in Sections 3.07(f), (m), (o), the first and fifth sentences in Section 3.08(c), 3.10(a), the first sentence of Section 3.14, the first clause of Section 3.20, and the first sentence in Section 3.29 or be deemed to modify or eliminate any dollar amount set forth in any representation and warranty.

(e) No indemnifying party or any of its Affiliates shall have any right of contribution from any indemnified party or any of its Affiliates with respect to any Losses claimed by an indemnified party.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the parties hereto agree and acknowledge that any Buyer Indemnified Party may bring a claim for indemnification for any Loss under this Article VII notwithstanding the fact that such Buyer Indemnified Party had knowledge of the breach, event or circumstance giving rise to such Loss prior to the Closing.

(g) The Buyer Indemnified Parties shall not be entitled to recover for the amount of any Loss arising under one provision of this Agreement to the extent that the Buyer Indemnified Parties had already recovered for such amount of such Loss pursuant to another provision of this Agreement.

7.03 Indemnification by Buyer for the Benefit of Seller. Subject to the provisions of this Article VII, from and after the Closing, Buyer shall indemnify and hold Seller, its Affiliates and its and their respective officers, directors, partners, members, employees, agents, representatives, successors and permitted assigns (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and against any and all Losses which the Seller Indemnified Parties may incur, accrue or suffer based upon, attributable to or resulting from: (a) any breach by Buyer of any representation or warranty set forth in Article IV of this Agreement or any certificate delivered by or on behalf of Buyer hereunder at or in connection with the Closing, or (b) any non-fulfillment or breach of any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement to be performed or complied with by Buyer and/or, from and after the Closing, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

7.04 Manner of Payment. Any indemnification payment pursuant to this Article VII shall be effected by wire transfer of immediately available funds from the applicable indemnifying party to an account designated in writing by each applicable indemnified party within five (5) days after the determination thereof.

7.05 Notice and Defense of Third Party Claims.

(a) Any Person making a claim for indemnification under Section 7.02 or Section 7.03 (an “Indemnitee”) shall notify the indemnifying party (an “Indemnitor”) of the claim in writing promptly after receiving notice of any Proceeding, demand or other claim against the Indemnitee (if by a third party, a “Third Party Claim”), describing the claim, the amount thereof (if known and quantifiable) and the basis thereof in reasonable detail (such written notice, an “Indemnification Notice”); provided that the failure to so notify an Indemnitor shall not relieve the Indemnitor of its obligations hereunder except to the extent that (and only to the extent that) such failure shall have caused the Losses for which the Indemnitor is obligated to be greater than such Losses would have been had the Indemnitee given the Indemnitor prompt notice hereunder. Any Indemnitor shall be entitled to participate in the defense of a Third Party Claim giving rise to an Indemnitee’s claim for indemnification at such Indemnitor’s expense, and at its option (but subject to Section 7.05(b) in the case of Excluded Claims) shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof within thirty (30) days after its receipt of notice of a Third Party Claim from the Indemnitee (or sooner, if the nature of the Third Party Claim so requires) by notifying the Indemnitee in writing within such thirty (30) day period of such election and by appointing a reputable counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee to be the lead counsel in connection with such defense; provided that the Indemnitee shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim and to employ counsel of its choice for such purpose;

provided, however, that the fees and Expenses of such separate counsel shall be borne by the Indemnitee and shall not be recoverable from such Indemnitor under this Article VII unless (i) the Indemnitee is requested by the Indemnitor to so participate or (ii) in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Indemnitee, a conflict or potential conflict exists between the Indemnitee and the Indemnitor that would make such separate representation advisable. If the Indemnitor shall control the defense of any such Third Party Claim, the Indemnitor shall only be entitled to settle such Third Party Claim if (i) the Indemnitor obtains the prior written consent of the Indemnitee (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) before entering into any settlement of a Third Party Claim and (ii) such settlement expressly and unconditionally releases the Indemnitee from all liabilities and obligations with respect to such claim. If the Indemnitor assumes such defense, (i) the Indemnitor shall acknowledge the Indemnitor’s indemnification obligations hereunder with respect to such Third Party Claim, and shall not thereafter contest the Indemnitor’s obligation to indemnify the Indemnitee for all Losses resulting therefrom, (ii) the Indemnitor shall not thereafter cease to defend such Third Party Claim and (iii) the Indemnitor shall not be liable for any amount required to be paid by the Indemnitee that exceeds, where the Indemnitee has unreasonably withheld or delayed consent in connection with the proposed compromise or settlement of such Third Party Claim, the amount for which that Third Party Claim could have been settled pursuant to that proposed compromise or settlement. In all cases, the Indemnitee shall provide its reasonable cooperation with the Indemnitor in defense of Third Party Claims, including by making employees, information and documentation reasonably available. If the Indemnitor shall not assume the defense of any such Third Party Claim, the Indemnitee may defend against such matter as it deems appropriate and the Indemnitor shall reimburse the Indemnitee for all reasonable and documented Expenses of defending such Third Party Claim upon submission of periodic bills; provided the Indemnitee shall not settle any such matter without the written consent of the Indemnitor (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld); provided, further, that notwithstanding the foregoing proviso, if such Third Party Claim would reasonably be expected to result in the Buyer Indemnified Parties incurring, accruing or suffering Losses, which taken together with all other Losses of the Buyer Indemnified Parties for which Seller has indemnified the Buyer Indemnified Parties, that exceed the Cap, the Indemnitee may settle any such matter without the written consent of the Indemnitor, and such settlement shall not be determinative of the Indemnitor’s indemnification obligations hereunder with respect to such Third Party Claim or the amount of Losses relating to such Third Party Claim. In the event that the Indemnitor has consented to any such settlement, the Indemnitor shall have no power or authority to object under any provision of this Article VII to the amount of any Losses reasonably claimed by the Indemnitee with respect to such settlement. If there is a Third Party Claim that, if adversely determined would give rise to a right of recovery for Losses hereunder, then any amounts incurred or accrued by the Indemnitee in defense of such Third Party Claim, regardless of the outcome of such claim, shall be deemed Losses hereunder.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Third Party Claim involves a claim (A) seeking injunctive relief with respect to the operation of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, (B) seeking to impose criminal (other than misdemeanors) fines, penalties or sanctions or (C) by a current material customer or supplier of the Company and its Subsidiaries (each such Third Party Claim, an “Excluded Claim”), then the Indemnitee shall, upon written notice to the Indemnitor at the time notice of such Excluded Claim is first given to the Indemnitor, have the right to elect to either (x) assume the defense of such Excluded Claim, in

which case, such Excluded Claim shall be subject to this paragraph (b), or (y) submit such Excluded Claim to the Indemnitor pursuant to paragraph (a) above, in which case the procedures in paragraph (a) above shall apply and such Third Party Claim shall thereafter no longer constitute an Excluded Claim. If the Indemnitee elects to assume the defense of an Excluded Claim, the Indemnitee shall, at its own expense, be permitted to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with such Excluded Claim and shall not be obligated to seek the Indemnitor’s consent to any settlement; provided, that if the Indemnitee shall settle any such Excluded Claim without the written consent of the Indemnitor (which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld), such settlement shall not be determinative of the amount of Losses relating to such Third Party Claim. In the event that the Indemnitor has consented to any such settlement, the Indemnitor shall have no power or authority to object under any provision of this Article VII to the amount of any Losses reasonably claimed by the Indemnitee with respect to such settlement. The Indemnitor shall be permitted, at its own expense, to participate in the defense of such Excluded Claim. Upon a final determination of such Excluded Claim, the Indemnitee shall be permitted to proceed directly against the Indemnitor for the amount of Losses incurred by reason of such Excluded Claim pursuant to paragraph (a) above.

7.06 Determination of Loss Amount. The amount of any Loss subject to indemnification under Section 7.02 or Section 7.03 or Section 8.03 shall be calculated net of (i) any Tax Benefit actually (and not potentially) realized by the Indemnitee on account of such Loss, (ii) any reserves set forth in the Latest Balance Sheet relating specifically to such Loss and (iii) any insurance proceeds or other amounts under indemnification agreements actually (and not potentially) received by the Indemnitee on account of such Loss. If the Indemnitee actually realizes a Tax Benefit on account of such Loss after an indemnification payment is made to it, the Indemnitee shall promptly pay to the Person or Persons that made such indemnification payment the amount of such Tax Benefit at such time or times as and to the extent that such Tax Benefit is realized by the Indemnitee. For purposes hereof, “Tax Benefit” shall mean any refund of Taxes to be paid or reduction in the amount of Taxes which otherwise would be owed by the Indemnitee, in each case computed at the highest marginal tax rates applicable to the recipient of such benefit. The Indemnitee shall use commercially reasonable efforts to seek full recovery under any insurance policies and/or indemnification agreements potentially covering any Loss. For the purposes of this Section 7.06 only, “commercially reasonable” means the Indemnitee’s actions must be commercially reasonable taking into account all relevant considerations, including the risk of increased insurance premiums, the impact on insurance claims history, the risk of insurance non-renewal, other insurance policy risks and consequences and all other foreseeable consequences related to third parties, including foreseeable impacts on customer, reseller, vendor, distributor, supplier, strategic alliance, partner or other relationships. In the event that an insurance or other recovery is made by any Indemnitee with respect to any Loss for which any such Person has been indemnified hereunder, then a refund equal to the aggregate amount of the recovery (after deducting related costs and Expenses and any resulting increased premium costs) shall be made promptly to the Person or Persons that provided such indemnity payments to such Indemnitee. The Indemnitors shall be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnitees in respect of any Losses indemnified by the Indemnitors. For Tax purposes, the parties agree that all payments made under this Article VII and Section 8.03 constitute adjustments to the Purchase Price and shall report any payments as such on their Tax Returns, unless otherwise required by applicable Law.

7.07 Termination of Indemnification. The obligations to indemnify and hold harmless a party hereto in respect of a breach of representation, warranty, covenant or agreement shall terminate when the applicable representation, warranty, covenant or agreement terminates pursuant to Section 7.01; provided, however, that such obligations to indemnify and hold harmless shall not terminate with respect to any item as to which an Indemnitee shall have, prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period, previously made a claim by delivering an Indemnification Notice to the Indemnitor.

7.08 Limitation on Recourse. No claim shall be brought or maintained by Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries (including the Company and its Subsidiaries) or their respective successors or permitted assigns against any officer, director, employee (present or former) or Affiliate of any party hereto or any direct or indirect equity holder of the Seller, in each case, which is not otherwise expressly identified as a party hereto, and no recourse shall be brought or granted against any of them, by virtue of or based upon any alleged misrepresentation or inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of any party hereto set forth or contained in this Agreement or any exhibit or schedule hereto or any certificate delivered hereunder.

7.09 Mediation and Arbitration. From and after the Closing Date, in the event any claim, demand, disagreement, controversy or dispute (a “Dispute”) arises from or in connection with any claim for Losses under this Article VII and if the Dispute cannot be settled through direct discussions, the parties agree to endeavor first to settle such Dispute in an amicable manner by non-binding mediation to be held in Los Angeles, California, administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial Mediation Rules before resorting to arbitration. Thereafter, any unresolved Dispute shall be settled by binding arbitration to be held in Los Angeles, California, administered by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules. At the conclusion of such arbitration, the arbitrator(s) shall issue a reasoned award to the parties, and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof pursuant to Section 10.15.

ARTICLE VIII.

ADDITIONAL COVENANTS AND AGREEMENTS

8.01 Disclosure Generally. If and to the extent any information required to be furnished in any schedule is contained in this Agreement or in any other schedule, such information shall be deemed to be included in all schedules in which the information is required to be included to the extent that the meaning of such disclosure is reasonably apparent on its face. The inclusion of any information in any schedule shall not be deemed to be an admission or acknowledgment by the Company or Seller, in and of itself, that such information is material to or outside the ordinary course of the businesses of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

8.02 Acknowledgment by Buyer.

(a) Buyer acknowledges that it has conducted to its satisfaction an independent investigation and verification of the financial condition, results of operations, assets, liabilities, properties and projected operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries and, in

making its determination to proceed with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, Buyer has relied on the results of its own independent investigation and verification and on the representations and warranties of the Company and Seller expressly and specifically set forth in this Agreement, including the schedules hereto. SUCH REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES BY THE COMPANY AND SELLER CONSTITUTE THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY AND SELLER TO BUYER IN CONNECTION WITH THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, AND BUYER UNDERSTANDS, ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ALL OTHER IMPLIED REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND OR NATURE (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY RELATING TO THE FUTURE OR HISTORICAL FINANCIAL CONDITION OR PROJECTIONS, RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, ASSETS OR LIABILITIES OF THE COMPANY) ARE SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMED BY THE COMPANY AND SELLER. The Company and Seller do not make or provide, and Buyer hereby waives, any implied warranty or representation, as to the quality, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, conformity to samples, or condition of the Company’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ assets or any part thereto.

(b) In connection with Buyer’s investigation of the Company and its Subsidiaries, Buyer has received from or on behalf of the Company, its Subsidiaries or Seller certain projections. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that there are uncertainties inherent in attempting to make such estimates, projections and other forecasts and plans, that Buyer is familiar with such uncertainties, that Buyer has made its own independent evaluation of the adequacy and accuracy of all estimates, projections and other forecasts and plans so furnished to it (including the reasonableness of the assumptions underlying such estimates, projections and forecasts), and that Buyer shall have no claim against the Company, its Subsidiaries, Seller or any direct or indirect equity holder of Seller with respect thereto. Accordingly, neither the Company, any of its Subsidiaries nor Seller makes any representations or warranties whatsoever with respect to such estimates, projections and other forecasts and plans (including the reasonableness of the assumptions underlying such estimates, projections and forecasts).

8.03 Tax Matters. The following provisions shall govern the allocation of responsibility as between Buyer and Seller for certain tax matters following the Closing Date.

(a) Tax Indemnity. Seller shall be liable for and pay, and shall indemnify Buyer (and the Company and each Subsidiary) against, (A) all Taxes of any Person (other than the Company or any Subsidiary) imposed on the Company or any Subsidiary, or for which the Company or any Subsidiary may otherwise be liable, as a result of having been a member of a Company Group (including, but not limited to, the Parent Group) for any period prior to or including the Closing Date (including, without limitation, Taxes for which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries may be liable pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-6 or similar provisions of state, local or foreign Tax law as a result of having been a member of a Company Group for any period prior to or including the Closing Date), (B) (x) all income Taxes imposed on the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for any taxable period (or portion thereof) ending on or before September 30, 2010 (as determined pursuant to Section 8.03(c)) to the extent that such Taxes exceed the $488,911 amount for income taxes payable that is set forth on the Latest Balance Sheet , provided, however, that such income Taxes shall not include (and hence Seller shall not be liable for) any income Tax items that result in either (i) a non-current deferred tax

asset to the extent that such asset is reasonably expected to result in a deduction or income exclusion recognized (through an actual reduction of Taxes) for a taxable year ending on or prior to December 31, 2012, or (ii) a current deferred tax asset relating to a current asset or liability, and (y) all non-income Taxes imposed on the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for any taxable period (or portion thereof) ending on or before September 30, 2010 (as determined pursuant to Section 8.03(c)) to the extent that such Taxes exceed the $208,426 amount for such non-income Taxes liability that is included within the accrued liabilities amount set forth on the Latest Balance Sheet, (C) all Taxes imposed on the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for any taxable period (or portion thereof) beginning October 1, 2010, and ending at the end of the Closing Date to the extent that such Taxes were incurred outside the ordinary course of business or otherwise inconsistent with past custom and practice, it being understood for the avoidance of doubt that such Taxes shall include Tax for any such period resulting from (x) any Section 338(h)(10) Elections to be made with respect to the purchase and sale (actual or deemed) of stock of any of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant hereto, (y) any Taxes imposed on the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as a result of transactions contemplated hereby (other than Taxes allocated to Buyer under Section 8.03(g)) and (z) any Taxes imposed on the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as a result of the termination, satisfaction or cancellation of any intercompany accounts pursuant to or as contemplated by Section 3.31 hereof, (D) all Taxes imposed on the Seller as a result of the transactions contemplated hereby, including any failure of Buyer to withhold any such Taxes (other than (1) any withholding of Taxes by a jurisdiction arising solely as a result of a present or former connection of the Buyer to such jurisdiction and (2) Taxes allocated to Buyer under Section 8.03(g)) and (E) Losses arising as a result of any breach of a representation or warranty under Section 3.09. Section 7.06 shall apply to the previous sentence.

(b) Filing of Tax Returns; Payment of Taxes.

(i) Pre-Closing Tax Returns Required to Be Filed on or Prior to the Closing Date. Seller shall file, or cause to be filed, all Tax Returns of, or which include, the Company and its Subsidiaries and which are required to be filed (taking into account any extensions of time) on or prior to the Closing Date, and pay, or cause the Company or its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, to pay, any and all Taxes required to be shown as due on such Tax Returns.

(ii) Pre-Closing Tax Returns Required to Be Filed after the Closing Date. Seller shall prepare, in a manner consistent with prior practice unless otherwise required by applicable Tax Laws, all foreign, state and local Tax Returns required to be filed by the Company and its Subsidiaries on a separate return basis after the Closing Date (“Separate Pre-Closing Tax Returns”) with respect to taxable periods (excluding partial taxable periods) that, to the extent they relate to the Company and its Subsidiaries, end on or before the Closing Date (the “Pre-Closing Taxable Period”). To the extent that any such Separate Pre-Closing Tax Return would reasonably be expected to have an adverse effect on any of the Company or its Subsidiaries for a taxable period beginning after the Closing Date (the “Post-Closing Taxable Period”), Buyer shall (but only to such extent) have the right to review and comment on such return and Seller shall consider in good faith any comments reasonably requested by Buyer. Each Separate Pre-Closing Tax Return shall be filed timely by the Company or its Subsidiaries, and the Company or its Subsidiaries shall pay the Tax required to be shown due thereon. On or prior to the

due date for payment of Taxes with respect to any such Separate Pre-Closing Tax Return, or, in the event of a dispute, upon resolution thereof, Seller shall pay to the Company or its Subsidiaries the amount of such Tax required to be shown due to the extent such Tax is allocable to the portion of the Tax period ending on or before September 30, 2010 (provided however, Seller shall only be required to pay such Taxes (x) with respect to income Taxes, to the extent that such Taxes exceed the $488,911 amount for income taxes payable that is set forth on the Latest Balance Sheet, provided, however, that such income Taxes shall not include (and hence Seller shall not be liable for) any income Tax items that result in either (i) a non-current deferred tax asset to the extent that such asset is reasonably expected to result in a deduction or income exclusion recognized (through an actual reduction of Taxes) for a taxable year ending on or prior to December 31, 2012, or (ii) a current deferred tax asset relating to a current asset or liability, and (y) with respect to non-income Taxes, to the extent that such Taxes exceed the $208,426 amount for such non-income Taxes liability that is included within the accrued liabilities amount set forth on the Latest Balance Sheet). In addition, Seller will prepare and file all federal, state, local or foreign Tax Returns with respect to any Pre-Closing Taxable Period that are (x) filed on a consolidated, combined or unitary basis with Seller, (y) include the Company and its Subsidiaries and (z) are required to be filed after the Closing Date (“Consolidated Pre-Closing Tax Returns”), and shall pay or cause to be paid the amount of Tax shown to be due thereon with respect to any such Consolidated Pre-Closing Tax Returns. The Company and its Subsidiaries shall cooperate fully in providing all information in their possession and not otherwise available to Seller that is required to be included in such Separate Pre-Closing Tax Returns or Consolidated Pre-Closing Tax Returns as the Seller may reasonably request within ten (10) Business Days of such request.

(iii) Tax Returns for Post-Closing Taxable Periods (other than Straddle Periods). Buyer shall prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, all Tax Returns of or which include the Company or its Subsidiaries and which are required to be filed after the Closing Date with respect to a Post-Closing Taxable Period, but excluding any Straddle Period, and shall pay or cause to be paid the amount of Tax shown to be due thereon with respect to any such Tax Return.

(iv) Tax Returns Required to be Filed after the Closing Date for Straddle Periods. Seller and Buyer shall, unless prohibited by applicable Tax law, take or cause to be taken all commercially reasonable action necessary or appropriate to close the taxable period of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the Closing Date.

(c) For purposes of allocating Taxes of the Company or its Subsidiaries for a portion of a Tax period that includes September 30, 2010, the portion of any such Tax that is allocable to the portion of the taxable period ending on September 30, 2010, shall be:

(ii) in the case of Taxes imposed on a periodic basis with respect to the assets of the Company or any Subsidiary, or otherwise measured by the level of any item, deemed to be the amount of such Taxes for the entire taxable period (after giving effect to amounts which may be deducted from or offset against such Taxes) (or, in the case of such Taxes determined on an arrears basis, the amount of such Taxes for the immediately preceding period), multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the period ending on September 30, 2010, and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire taxable period.

(d) Cooperation on Tax Matters. Buyer, the Company and its Subsidiaries, and Seller shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns pursuant to this Agreement and any Tax Contest. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other party’s request) the provision of records and information which are reasonably relevant to any such Tax Contest and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder.

(e) Contest Provisions. If, subsequent to the Closing, Buyer or the Company or its Subsidiaries receives notice of a Tax Contest with respect to any Tax Return for a Tax period or portion thereof ending on or before the Closing Date, then within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such notice, Buyer shall notify Seller of such notice. Buyer shall have the right to control the conduct and resolution of such Tax Contest; provided, however, that Buyer shall keep Seller reasonably informed of the progress of such Tax Contest and shall not effect any such settlement or compromise of such Tax Contest without obtaining Seller’s prior written consent thereto, which shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, further, that Seller shall have the sole right to control the conduct and resolution of any Tax Contest that relates any Tax Return of the Company or its Subsidiaries for a Tax period or portion thereof ending on or before the Closing Date that is filed on a combined, consolidated or unitary basis.

(f) Amended Returns; Refund Claims.

(i) Buyer, the Company or its Subsidiaries shall not amend (or cause to be amended) any Tax Return of the Company or its Subsidiaries for any period or portion thereof ending on or before the Closing Date without the prior written consent of Seller, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(ii) In respect of the U.S. consolidated federal income tax return filed by the Parent Group, Buyer shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to forgo any carry-back to a Pre-Closing Taxable Period of any item of deduction or credit incurred by the Company or its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, after the Closing Date. In respect of any other Tax Return, the carry-back to a Pre-Closing Taxable Period of any item of deduction or credit incurred by the Company or its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, after the Closing Date shall be subject to the prior written consent of Seller, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld.

Buyer, on the one hand, and Seller, on the other hand, shall share equally all transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other substantially similar Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with this Agreement (collectively, “Transfer Taxes”).

forms as are reasonably requested to complete properly the Section 338(h)(10) Elections at least thirty (30) days prior to the date such Section 338(h)(10) Elections are required to be filed. All forms will be agreed to by the parties prior to the filing thereof.

(iii) Within ninety (90) days after Closing, Seller shall prepare and deliver to Buyer a statement setting forth the allocation of the applicable purchase consideration (as determined for U.S. federal, state or local Tax purposes) among the assets of SPI and SPSC and their Subsidiaries that are deemed purchased by reason of the Section 338(h)(10) Elections (as revised under this Section 8.03(h)(iii), the “Allocation Statement”). If Buyer disagrees with the Allocation Statement, Buyer shall notify Seller of such disagreement within ten (10) days after Seller’s delivery of the Allocation Statement, and Buyer and Seller shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such disagreement. If Seller and Buyer are unable to resolve any such dispute, such dispute shall be resolved promptly by a nationally recognized accounting firm acceptable to Buyer and Seller, the costs of which shall be borne equally by Buyer and Seller. If the Purchase Price is subsequently adjusted in any manner as provided in this Agreement, Seller and Buyer shall promptly revise the Allocation Statement in a manner consistent with the foregoing.

(iv) Buyer and Seller shall file all Tax Returns and statements, forms and schedules in connection therewith in a manner consistent with the Section 338(h)(10) Elections and the Allocation Statement and shall take no position contrary thereto unless required to do so by applicable Tax Laws; provided however, that nothing contained herein shall prevent Buyer or Seller from settling any proposed deficiency or adjustment by any Taxing Authority based upon or arising out of the Allocation Statement, and neither Buyer nor Seller shall be required to litigate before any court any proposed deficiency or adjustment by any Taxing Authority challenging the Allocation Statement.

party may reasonably deem necessary or desirable to evidence and effectuate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

10.05 Assignment; Third Party Beneficiaries. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided that no party may assign, delegate or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of each other party hereto; provided, however, that Buyer may assign its rights and interests without Seller’s or the Company’s consent (i) to any of its Affiliates or (ii) for collateral security purposes, to any lender providing debt financing to Buyer or any of its Affiliates in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, further, however, in each case of clauses (i) and (ii), any such assignment shall not relieve Buyer of its obligations hereunder. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto or their respective successors and permitted assigns, any rights, remedies or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement, other than Article VII and Section 8.03, which is intended to be for the benefit of the Persons covered thereby or to be paid thereunder and may be enforced by such Persons.

10.06 Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable Law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable Law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon any determination that any provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

10.07 References. The table of contents and the section and other headings and subheadings contained in this Agreement and the exhibits hereto are solely for the purpose of reference, are not part of the agreement of the parties hereto, and shall not in any way affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement or any exhibit hereto. All references to days or months shall be deemed references to calendar days or months. All references to “$” or “dollars” shall be deemed references to United States dollars. Unless the context otherwise requires, any reference to a “Section,” “Exhibit,” or “Schedule” shall be deemed to refer to a section of this Agreement, exhibit to this Agreement or a schedule to this Agreement, as applicable. Any reference to any federal, state, county, local or foreign Law shall be deemed also to refer to all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder and all amendments thereto in force from time to time (including amendments to provision references) and every applicable Law in effect that supplements, replaces or supersedes such Law, unless the context requires otherwise. For all purposes of and under this Agreement, (i) the word “including” shall be deemed to be immediately followed by the words “without limitation”; (ii) words (including defined terms) in the singular shall be deemed to include the plural and vice versa; (iii) words of

one gender shall be deemed to include the other gender as the context requires; (iv) “or” is not exclusive; and (v) the terms “hereof,” “herein,” “hereto,” “herewith” and any other words of similar import shall, unless otherwise stated, be construed to refer to this Agreement as a whole (including the exhibits hereto and the Disclosure Schedules) and not to any particular term or provision of this Agreement, unless otherwise specified.

10.08 No Strict Construction. The language used in this Agreement shall be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties hereto to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction shall be applied against any Person.

10.09 Amendment and Waiver. Any provision of this Agreement or the schedules or exhibits hereof may be amended or waived only in a writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any such amendment or waiver is sought. No action or nonaction taken pursuant to this Agreement, including without limitation, any investigation by or on behalf of any party, shall be deemed to constitute a waiver by the party taking such action or nonaction of compliance with any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained herein. No failure on the part of any party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of such right, power or remedy by such party preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. No waiver of any provision hereunder or any breach or default thereof shall extend to or affect in any way any other provision or prior or subsequent breach or default.

10.10 Complete Agreement. This Agreement (including the Disclosure Schedules and the Exhibits hereto) and the Confidentiality Agreement, dated May 12, 2009, by and between Seller and Buyer’s Affiliate as amended, restated or otherwise modified (the “Confidentiality Agreement”), contain the complete agreement between the parties hereto and supersede any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or between the parties, written or oral, which may have related to the subject matter hereof in any way.

10.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts (including by means of facsimile signature pages), any one of which need not contain the signatures of more than one party, but all such counterparts taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

10.12 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF THE OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT,

AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 10.12.

10.13 Specific Performance. Each of the parties to this Agreement acknowledges and agrees that the other parties to this Agreement would be irreparably damaged in the event that any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or otherwise are breached. Therefore, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, each of the parties to this Agreement hereby agrees that the other parties to this Agreement shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement, and to enforce specifically the performance by such first party under this Agreement, and each party to this Agreement hereby agrees to waive the defense in any such suit that the other parties to this Agreement have an adequate remedy at law and to interpose no opposition, legal or otherwise, as to the propriety of injunction or specific performance as a remedy, and hereby agrees to waive any requirement to post any bond in connection with obtaining such relief. The equitable remedies described in this Section 10.13 shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other remedies at law or in equity that the parties to this Agreement may elect to pursue.

10.14 Governing Law. All matters relating to the interpretation, construction, validity and enforcement of this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the domestic Laws of the State of New York without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of Laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York.

10.15 Jurisdiction. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement and subject to Section 7.09 above, any Proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any matter arising out of or in connection with, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be brought in New York City, New York or any federal court located in New York City, New York, and each of the parties hereby consents to the jurisdiction of such courts (and of the appropriate appellate courts therefrom) in any such Proceeding and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such Proceeding in any such court or that any such Proceeding which is brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Process in any such Proceeding may be served on any party anywhere in the world, whether within or without the jurisdiction of any such court. Without limiting the foregoing, each party agrees that service of process on such party as provided in Section 10.04 shall be deemed effective service of process on such party.
