1.2 Purchase Price of the Company Stock. The purchase price of the Company Stock (the “Stock Purchase Price”) shall be the sum of (i) an amount not to exceed $1,325,000 that shall be payable in accordance with and subject to limitations and conditions set forth below in this Section 1.2 and (ii) the Estimated Asset Value (determined in accordance with Section 1.2.3 of this Agreement):

1.2.1 Payment and Delivery at Closing. At Closing (as defined in Section 1.6), Purchaser shall pay and deliver to Seller the following:

1.2.1.1 Cash Payment. The sum of $1,075,000 and the Estimated Asset Value (calculated pursuant to Section 1.2.3) in immediately available funds; and

1.2.2 Post-Closing Adjustment. On or by December 7, 2007, Purchaser shall deliver a post-closing adjustment report (the “Preliminary Post-Closing Report”) to Seller. The Preliminary Post-Closing Report shall set forth the number of active members (the “Plan Members”) enrolled in Company plans marketed by the three (3) companies referenced in Section 1.2.2 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule (collectively, the “Plans”). Section 1.2.2 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule contains three (3) targets for membership of Plan Members in the Plans as of November 30, 2007 (the “Membership Targets”).

Provided, however, the provisions of this Section 5.8.1 shall not be applicable to any Losses occasioned by any misrepresentation or breach of any warranty or breach of any covenant set forth in Article 1 and each of Sections 2.1 through 2.5, and each of Sections 2.7, 2.12, 2.22, 5.4(iii) and (iv) and 5.17.

(b) The aggregate liability of Seller (and prior to Closing, the Company) for all Losses under this Article 5, whether resulting from any misrepresentation or breach of warranty, or breach of any covenant or other term or agreement to be performed at or prior to Closing or otherwise, shall in no event exceed the lesser of the Stock Purchase Price or $1,200,000.

(c) Seller shall not be liable to indemnify Purchaser (or, after the Closing, the Company) or any of their respective Affiliates or Subsidiaries for any Losses relating to, arising out of or resulting from any breach, violation, or failure to perform by Seller of any representation, warranty, covenant, promise or other agreement made by Seller (or prior to Closing, the Company) in this Agreement where Purchaser or its Affiliates had Knowledge of such breach, violation or failure prior to Closing.

5.8.2 Purchaser Liability Limitation. Purchaser shall not be liable under this Agreement for any misrepresentation or breach of warranty except to the extent that the aggregate amount of Losses for which Purchaser would otherwise (but for this provision) be liable exceeds in the aggregate the Deductible Amount and then only to the extent of Losses in excess of such Deductible Amount. Provided, however, the provisions of this Section 5.8.2 shall not be applicable to any Losses occasioned by any misrepresentation or breach of any warranty or breach of any covenant set forth in Article 1 and each of Sections 3.1 through 3.5 and Section 5.17.

5.8.3 Duty to Mitigate. Each Party (including, without limitation, the Company after Closing) shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate the amount of any Losses.

5.8.4 Subrogation. If an Indemnifying Party pays a claim of an Indemnified Party, then the Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to all rights that the Indemnified Party may have against others (except Affiliates, representatives, successors or assigns of the Indemnified Party) for recovery of the Losses, and the Indemnified Party shall take all actions reasonably necessary to effect such subrogation rights of the Indemnifying Party.

5.9 Method of Asserting Claims. The Person claiming indemnification under Section 5.4 or 5.5 of this Agreement hereinafter referred to as the “Indemnified Party” and the Person against whom such claims are asserted under this Agreement is referred to as the “Indemnifying Party.” All claims for indemnification by any Indemnified Party under this Article 5 shall be asserted and conducted as follows:

5.9.1 Notification; Defense. In the event that any claim or demand for which an Indemnifying Party would be liable to an Indemnified Party under this Agreement is asserted against or sought to be collected from such Indemnified Party by a third party, said Indemnified Party shall with reasonable promptness notify the Indemnifying Party of such claim or demand, specifying the nature of and specific basis for such claim or demand and the amount or the estimated amount of such claim or demand to the extent then feasible (which estimate shall not be conclusive of the final amount of such claim and demand (the “Claim Notice”). The Indemnified Party’s failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of liability under this Agreement unless such failure materially prejudices the Indemnifying Party’s ability to defend against the claim or demand. The Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days from the giving of the Claim Notice (the “Notice Period”) to notify the Indemnified Party (i) whether or not the Indemnifying Party disputes the liability of the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party hereunder with respect to such claim or demand and (ii) whether or not the Indemnifying Party desires, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, to defend the Indemnified Party against such claim or demand; provided, however, that any Indemnified Party is hereby authorized prior to and during the Notice Period to file any motion, answer or other pleading that Indemnified Party deems necessary or appropriate to protect its interests or those of the Indemnifying Party and that is not in any way prejudicial to the Indemnifying Party. In the event that the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party within the Notice Period that the Indemnifying Party desires to defend the Indemnified Party against such claim or demand and except as hereinafter provided, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to defend by all appropriate proceedings, which proceedings shall be settled or prosecuted by the Indemnifying Party to a final conclusion. In the event the Indemnified Party desires to participate in, but not control, any such defense or settlement by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party may do so at its sole cost and expense. If requested by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party agrees to cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in contesting any claim or demand that the Indemnifying Party elects to contest, or, if appropriate and related to the claim in question, in making any counterclaim against the Person asserting the third party claim or demand, or any cross-complaint against any Person.

5.9.2 Counterclaim Notification. In the event any Indemnified Party shall have a claim against any Indemnifying Party under this Agreement that does not involve a claim or demand being asserted against or sought to be collected from such Indemnified Party by a third party, the Indemnified Party shall give a Claim Notice with respect to such claim to the Indemnifying Party.

5.9.3 Access to Books and Records. To the extent that Purchaser may claim indemnity against Seller under this Agreement, Purchaser agrees to give Seller access to the books, records and employees of the Company in connection with the matters for which indemnification is sought under this Agreement, to the extent Seller reasonably deems necessary in connection with its rights and obligations under this Agreement. To the extent that Seller may claim indemnity against Purchaser hereunder, Purchaser agrees to give Seller access to the books, records and employees of the Company in connection with the matters for which indemnification is sought under this Agreement, to the extent Seller reasonably deems necessary in connection with Seller’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.

5.10 Notification of Certain Matters. Seller and the Company shall give prompt notice to Purchaser, and Purchaser shall give prompt notice to Seller and the Company, of

(i) the occurrence or nonoccurrence of any event the occurrence or nonoccurrence of which would be likely to cause any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement to be materially untrue or inaccurate, or

(ii) any failure of Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be, to materially comply with or satisfy any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by it under this Agreement;

provided, however, that the delivery of any notice pursuant to this Section 5.10 shall not limit or otherwise affect the remedies available to the Party receiving such notice; and provided further, that failure to give such notice shall not be treated as a breach of covenant for the purposes of Section 6.2.2 or 6.3.2 unless the failure to give such notice results in material prejudice to the other Party.

5.11 Further Action. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, each of the Parties shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all other things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective as promptly as practicable the Stock Purchase and Sale and other transactions provided for in this Agreement, to obtain in a timely manner all necessary waivers, consents and approvals and to effect all necessary registrations and filings, and otherwise to satisfy or cause to be satisfied all conditions precedent to its obligations under this Agreement. The foregoing covenant shall not include any obligation by Purchaser to agree to divest, abandon, license or take similar action with respect to any assets (tangible or intangible) of Purchaser or the Company.

5.12 Public Announcements. Purchaser and Seller shall consult with each other before issuing any press release prior to the Closing with respect to the Stock Purchase and Sale or this Agreement and shall not issue any such press release or make any such public statement without the prior consent of the other Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that a Party may, without the prior consent of the other Party, issue such press release prior to the Closing or make such public statement as may upon the advice of counsel be required by law if it has used all reasonable efforts to consult with the other Party.

5.14.1.1 “Competitive Business” means the business of offering memberships to individual consumers, directly or indirectly through third parties, in discount or referral plans through which consumers can obtain services or products from providers at predetermined prices or at discounts from normal retail prices; provided, however, that, notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the services and products falling within the scope of this definition of “Competitive Business” shall exclude vehicle service contracts and any other services and products generally regarded as finance and insurance (F&I) products ancillary to the purchase or ownership of automobiles and other vehicular, marine or power-sports products.

5.14.1.2 In order to induce Purchaser to enter into this Agreement, Seller covenants and agrees that, from the Closing until the expiration of two (2) years from the Closing Date (the “Non-Compete Period”), it shall not, and shall not permit or cause the Seller Affiliate Group to:

5.14.1.3 “Permissible Acquisition Subject to Condition” means the acquisition (or a series of acquisitions) closed during the Non-Compete Period by Seller or its Affiliate of a controlling interest in (or of substantially all of the assets of) an entity, whether through a stock purchase, asset sale or other similar transaction (the “Permissible Target”), that (i) is engaged in a Competitive Business at the time of the closing of the acquisition, but (ii) which is subject to the following condition to which Seller agrees: In the event of an offer between the Seller Affiliate Group and an unaffiliated third party during the Non-Compete Period involving a sale of a Competing Unit (and solely a Competing Unit), Seller agrees to provide (or cause the Seller Affiliate Group to provide) to Purchaser thirty (30) days’ written notice after the finalization of the terms of the Best Offer, during which thirty (30) days Purchaser shall have a right to purchase the Competing Unit on the same terms and conditions as are contained in the Best Offer. The “Best Offer” means the offer from a third party (other than a Purchaser Affiliate or the Seller Affiliate Group) to purchase or otherwise acquire a Competing Unit that Seller or the Affiliate owning the Competing Unit determines in its sole discretion to be both acceptable and qualitatively superior to any other available offer. If no offer is received or deemed acceptable by Seller (or its Affiliate, as the case may be), then Purchaser shall have no right to purchase, and neither Seller (nor its Affiliate) shall have the obligation to sell, the Competing Unit. A “Competing Unit” means (i) a separate incorporated subsidiary, limited liability company or other entity, or (ii) an unincorporated division or other business unit of the Permissible Target that operates the Competitive Business and no other business except the Competitive Business.

These covenants and agreements are included in this Agreement to protect the value of the business of Company being acquired by Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement and to assure that Purchaser shall have the full benefit of the value of the Company.

5.14.2 Judicially Imposed Limitations. If any part of the restrictions as to time, geographical area or scope of activity set forth in Section 5.14.1 shall, for any reason whatsoever, be found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unreasonable or impose a greater restraint than is necessary to protect the goodwill or other business interest acquired by Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement, the Parties agree, commit and covenant that jointly and without condition the Parties will request the court to reform the covenant and agreement set forth in Section 5.14.1 to cause the restrictions to be reasonable and to impose restrictions that are no greater than necessary to protect the goodwill or other business interest of Purchaser acquired pursuant to this Agreement and enforce the covenant and agreement as reformed, except the court may not award Purchaser damages for a breach of the covenant and agreement before its reformation and the relief granted to Purchaser shall be limited to injunctive relief.

5.14.3 Extension of Restrictive Period. If Seller shall be in violation of the aforementioned restrictive covenant in Section 5.14.1, then in addition to the other remedies available to Purchaser, the time limitation of Section 5.14.1 shall be extended for a period of time equal to the period of time during which such violation occurred.

5.14.4 No Allocation of Stock Purchase Price. Seller and Purchaser agree that no portion of the Stock Purchase Price shall be allocable to the restrictive covenants and agreements as set forth in this Section 5.14.

5.14.5 Waiver of Restrictions. The terms and provisions of this Section 5.14 are for the benefit of Purchaser and may be waived in whole or in part by Purchaser.

5.14.6 Injunctive Relief. Seller acknowledges that Purchaser and the Company and their Affiliates would be irreparably damaged and that money damages and any other remedy available at law would be inadequate to redress or remedy any loss in the event that the provisions of this Section 5.14 were not fully performed in accordance with its specific terms or are otherwise breached, and Seller, therefore, agrees that Purchaser, the Company and their Affiliates, in addition to seeking to recover any claim for damages or to obtain any other remedy available at law, also may seek to enforce the terms of this Section 5.14 by injunction or specific performance and may seek to obtain any other appropriate remedy available in equity.

5.15 Preparation of Final Balance Sheet. As soon as reasonably practicable and in any event within sixty (60) days following Closing, Purchaser shall prepare and deliver to Seller a balance sheet of the Company (the “Proposed Final Balance Sheet”) through the Closing Date. Seller shall have fourteen (14) days within which to notify Purchaser of any objection to (or to notify Purchaser of acceptance of) the Proposed Final Balance Sheet in writing (in the absence of which timely written notice the Seller shall be deemed in acceptance of such Proposed Final Balance Sheet). If the Proposed Final Balance Sheet is not accepted or deemed accepted, Seller and Purchaser shall in good faith negotiate to finalize the balance sheet of the Company through the Closing Date on or before December 1, 2007. The agreed upon (or deemed agreed upon) Proposed Final Balance Sheet shall be hereinafter referred to as the “Final Balance Sheet.” The Proposed Final Balance Sheet and the Final Balance Sheet shall be consistent with past practices of the Company prior to the Closing and the Asset Valuation Table. The Parties understand and agree that neither the Proposed Final Balance Sheet nor the Final Balance Sheet will include any liability reflected or reserved against the Planmedica Case or any liability associated therewith. Seller shall make available to Purchaser all information in the possession of Seller reasonably required for the Purchaser to prepare the Proposed Final Balance Sheet and the Final Balance Sheet. Purchaser and the Company shall make available to Seller all information in the possession of Purchaser and the Company reasonably required for Seller to review the Proposed Final Balance Sheet and the Final Balance Sheet.

5.16 Preparation and Filing of Tax Returns.

5.16.1 Seller shall prepare and timely file (or cause to be prepared and timely filed) all Tax Returns required to be filed by the Company for all Pre-Closing Periods (such Tax Returns, the “Pre-Closing Period Tax Returns”). For purposes of this Agreement, a Pre-Closing Period is a taxable period (i.e., a period, year, or any other span of time, for which the Company is obligated by law, ordinance, or regulation to compute its taxable income and report such taxable income in a Tax Return to a relevant Tax authority) that ends on or before the Closing Date. All such Pre-Closing Period Tax Returns shall be prepared at the expense of Seller in a manner that is consistent with the prior practice of the Company, except as required by applicable law. An appropriate officer of the Company (as of the date that the return is signed) shall sign the returns and send them back to Seller so that Seller can file the returns on a timely basis. Seller shall pay or cause to be paid all Taxes due and payable in respect of all Pre-Closing Period Tax Returns. Purchaser shall indemnify and hold the Seller Affiliate Group harmless from and against any and all Taxes that are imposed upon the Company that are not specifically indemnified by the Seller pursuant to this Section 5.16.

5.16.2 Purchaser shall prepare and timely file or cause the Company to prepare and timely file all Tax Returns required to be filed by the Company for all Straddle Periods (such Tax Returns, the “Straddle Period Tax Returns”) and for all Tax Return periods with an ending date after the Closing Date. For purposes of this Agreement, a Straddle Period is a taxable period that begins before the Closing Date and ends after the Closing Date. In preparing such Straddle Period Tax Returns, the Purchaser will prepare such returns in a manner that is consistent with the prior practice of the Company, except as required by applicable law, Purchaser shall deliver to Seller a draft of such returns no later than fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the due date of the returns (taking into consideration any valid extensions of time to file such returns) in order for Seller to review such returns. Seller will be obligated to finish its review and deliver its comments to the Purchaser no later than ten (10) Business Days prior to the aforementioned due date of the returns. Following the prior practice standard expressed above, Seller and Purchaser are obligated to work together in good faith to resolve any differences of view regarding the proper way in which the Straddle Period Tax Returns are to be prepared. Seller shall pay to Purchaser in immediately available funds the amount of all Taxes due and payable in respect of such Straddle Period Tax Returns to the extent such Taxes are apportioned to the Pre-Closing Period as provided below.

5.16.3 For purposes of this Section 5.16, in order to apportion appropriately any Taxes of the Company relating to a taxable period that, absent the occurrence of the transaction that is contemplated by this Agreement, begins before the Closing Date and would end after the Closing Date, the Parties shall, to the extent permitted under applicable law, treat for all Tax purposes the Closing Date as the last day of the taxable year or period of, or with respect to, the Company. In any case where applicable law does not permit the Company to treat the Closing Date as the last day of the taxable year or period, the portion of any Taxes that are allocable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date shall be:

(a) in the case of Taxes that are imposed on a periodic basis, deemed to be the amount of such Taxes for the entire period (or, in the case of such Taxes determined on an arrears basis (such as real property taxes), the amount of such Taxes for the immediately preceding period) multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the Straddle Period ending on (and including) the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire relevant Straddle Period; and

(b) in the case of Taxes not described in clause (a) (such as Taxes that are either (x) based upon or related to gross revenues or receipts, or (y) imposed in connection with any sale or other transfer or assignment of property (real or personal, tangible or intangible)), deemed equal to the amount that would be payable if the taxable year or period ended on the Closing Date.

(c) In applying provisions (a) and (b) above to determine the amount of Taxes that are payable by Seller for a Straddle Period, Seller will receive full credit from the Purchaser for any Taxes that Seller paid with regard to such Taxes (either directly or for its credit through its common parent, Protective Life Corporation) on or prior to the Closing Date.

5.16.4 Transfer Taxes. Purchaser and Seller shall be equally responsible for and shall each pay one-half of any real property transfer or gains, sales, use, transfer, value added, stock transfer and stamp taxes; any transfer, recording, registration and other fees, and any similar Taxes which become payable in connection with the transaction contemplated by this Agreement. Purchaser and Seller shall be responsible for jointly preparing and timely filing any Tax Returns required with respect to any such Taxes. Purchaser and Seller shall provide to one another a true copy of each such Tax Return as filed and evidence of the timely filing thereof. Purchaser and Seller shall file such applications and documents as shall permit such Tax to be assessed and paid as soon as practical following the Closing Date, but in no event later than sixty (60) days following the Closing Date.

5.17 Tax Cooperation. Seller and Purchaser agree to furnish or cause to be furnished to each other, upon request, as promptly as practical, such information (including access to books and records) and assistance relating to the Company as is reasonably requested for the filing of any Tax Returns, for the preparation of any audit and for the prosecution or defense of any claim relating to the Taxes of the Company. Any information obtained under this Section shall be kept confidential except (i) as may be otherwise necessary in connection with the filing of Tax Returns or claims for refund or in conducting an audit or other proceeding or (ii) with the consent of Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be.

5.18 338(h)(10) Election. Purchaser and Seller, as applicable, each agree to execute and file Forms 8023 and 8883 in accordance with the requirements of Section 338 of the Code and the applicable Treasury Regulations (and any similar forms required under state or local law). Purchaser and Seller agree to account for the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, (a) with regard to federal income taxation in accordance with Section 338(h)(10) of the Code and the related Treasury Regulations, and (b) with regard to state and local income taxation, in accordance with any similar applicable state and local laws and regulations that mirror the principles expressed in Section 338(h)(10) of the Code.

In accounting for the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Seller and the Purchaser agree that the following liabilities, to the extent that they are reported on the Company Balance Sheet and included in the Estimated Asset Value of the Company will be treated as being expressly assumed by the Purchaser in this transaction: (a) any accrued severance liability, (b) any accrued Florida rebate liability, (c) any allowance for doubtful accounts, and (d) any accrued vacation liability.

Seller will prepare and deliver to the Purchaser by January 11, 2008, a draft allocation of the total consideration paid for the Company Stock (exclusive of each party’s transaction costs) among the seven (7) classes of assets as prescribed by the Treasury Regulations under Section 338. Purchaser will respond to the Seller within five (5) Business Days of its receipt of the aforementioned draft allocation, indicating its approval, the areas in which it disagrees and any comments that it has about the draft allocation. The Seller and Purchaser agree to work together in good faith, using the principles expressed in Section 338 of the Code and the related Treasury Regulations, to reach an agreement on such allocation by January 25, 2008.

5.19 Tax Notice. Purchaser and Seller shall provide to each other notice within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of any notice or deficiency, proposed adjustment, assessment, audit, examination or other administrative or court proceeding, suit, dispute or other claim in which a Tax authority (a “Tax Claim”) makes or proposes to make a Tax adjustment to any Tax Period which could reasonably result in the other Party being liable for any amount of Taxes or losses related thereto, either under the law or pursuant to this Agreement.

5.20 Tax Controversies. Sellers, at their expense, shall control any Tax Claim that (i) involves a consolidated tax return, combined, or unitary return or any matter relating to the affiliated group of which Seller is the common parent, or (ii) could affect the Taxes of Seller or any affiliate thereof or could result in Seller being liable for any amount of Taxes or losses related thereto, either under the law or pursuant to this Agreement, including (a) any Taxes attributable to a Straddle Period that is allocated pursuant to this Agreement to the Company, or (b) any amount for which Seller could have to indemnify the Purchaser pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

5.21 Termination of Tax Sharing Agreements. As of the Closing Date, Seller shall cause all Tax allocation, Tax sharing, Tax reimbursement, and similar agreements and arrangements (“Tax Sharing Agreements”) between Seller and the Company to be extinguished and terminated with respect to the Company; provided, however, that such termination shall not excuse the Company from making all payment due to Seller under such Tax Sharing Agreements as determined as of the Closing Date. The payment and calculation of any payments due and owing with respect to the preceding sentence shall be made in a time and manner that is consistent with past practice.

5.22 No Carryback of Tax Attributes to a Pre-Closing Tax Period. Purchaser agrees that any tax attribute of the Company (including without limitation an unused net operating loss or an unused business credit) that originates in a Tax Period that ends after the Closing Date will not be carried back to a Tax Period that ends on or before the Closing Date, even if such carryback is permitted by law or regulation.

5.23 Employees and Company Plans. (i) Seller shall retain liability and responsibility for, and shall indemnify Purchaser against, any and all (1) salaries, wages, bonuses, deferred compensation, and any other compensation or payments payable to any employee of the Company for services attributable to, and claims and expenses incurred during the period ending on or prior to, the Closing in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable compensation arrangements and policies (the “Accrued Compensation”), (2) obligations under any Company Plans or Non-ERISA Plans of the Company with respect to the period ending on or before the Closing Date, (3) obligations under any Company Plans or Non-ERISA Plans of Seller; (4) the deemed termination of any employees of the Company arising out of the transactions contemplated hereunder, and (5) monetary and non-monetary “stay payments”, “stay bonuses” or other obligations which are or may become payable pursuant to any retention letters or agreements provided to any of the employees of the Company by Seller or the Company with respect to any obligations entered into on or before the Closing Date.

(ii) Seller shall pay to each employee of the Company any and all Accrued Compensation owed to such employee with respect to services performed through the Closing Date, and Purchaser shall have no responsibility or liability for payment of any such amounts. Seller shall not cash out and pay each employee of the Company for accrued but unused paid time off to which such employee is entitled under Seller’s or the Company’s paid time off policy immediately before the Closing Date, and Seller shall have no responsibility or liability for payment of any such amounts after the Closing Date.

(iii) In no event shall this Agreement cause an employee of the Company to be entitled to severance benefits from Seller or its Affiliates.

5.24 Memberships in Connecticut and Florida. After Closing Company shall use reasonable efforts to obtain a license to operate as a Medical Discount Plan in the State of Connecticut under Conn. Gen. Stat. §§ 38a-479qq, 38a-479rr (2007) enacted in Connecticut Public Act 05-237. If Company is unable to obtain such a license by December 31, 2007, then Company shall terminate the Company discount plan memberships of any member residing in the State of Connecticut. On or before December 31, 2007, Company shall terminate the Company discount plan membership of any member residing in the State of Florida if such Company discount plan or membership fee or other charge has not been approved by the State of Florida as required under Title 37, Chapter 636, Part II, codified at Fla. Stat. §§ 636.202 et seq. (2007).

(ii) by either Purchaser or Seller, if the Stock Purchase and Sale shall not have been consummated by October 31, 2007 (the “Outside Date”) (provided that the right to terminate this Agreement under this subparagraph (ii) of this Section 7.1 shall not be available to any Party whose failure to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement has been the cause of or resulted in the failure of the Stock Purchase and Sale to be consummated on or before such date); or

(iii) by either Purchaser or Seller, if a court of competent jurisdiction or governmental, regulatory or administrative agency or commission shall have issued a non-appealable final order, decree or ruling or taken any other action having the effect of permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting consummation of the Stock Purchase and Sale (provided that the right to terminate this Agreement under this subparagraph (iii) of this Section 7.1 shall not be available to any Party who has not complied with its obligations under Section 5.3 and such noncompliance materially contributed to the issuance of any such order, decree or ruling or the taking of such action); or

(iv) by either Purchaser or Seller, if any representation or warranty of the Company or Seller, on the one hand, or Purchaser, on the other hand, as appropriate, set forth in this Agreement shall be untrue when made, such that the conditions set forth in Sections 6.2.1 or 6.3.1, as the case may be, would not be satisfied (a “Terminating Misrepresentation”); provided, however, that, if such Terminating Misrepresentation is curable by Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be, through the exercise of its commercially reasonable efforts and for so long as Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be, continues to exercise such commercially reasonable efforts, neither Purchaser nor Seller, respectively, may terminate this Agreement under this subparagraph (iv) of this Section 7.1; or

(v) by Purchaser or Seller, upon a breach of any covenant or agreement on the part of the Company or Seller, on the one hand, or Purchaser, on the other hand, respectively, set forth in this Agreement, such that the conditions set forth in Sections 6.2.2 or 6.3.2, as the case may be, would not be satisfied (a “Terminating Breach”); provided, however, that, if such Terminating Breach is curable by Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be, through the exercise of its commercially reasonable efforts and for so long as Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be, continues to exercise such commercially reasonable efforts, neither Purchaser nor Seller, respectively, may terminate this Agreement under this subparagraph (v) of this Section 7.1.

7.2 Effect of Termination. In the event of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1, this Agreement shall forthwith become void and there shall be no liability on the part of any Party or of any of its Affiliates, directors, officers or stockholders, except as set forth in Section 7.3 below.

7.3 Fees and Expenses.

7.3.1 Each Party to Bear Own Expenses. All fees and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement through the earlier of the Closing or termination of this Agreement shall be paid by the Party incurring such expenses, whether or not the Stock Purchase and Sale is consummated, including without limitation the costs and expenses attributable to the preparation of audited and unaudited financial statements of Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand.

7.3.2 Litigation Expenses. Upon termination of this Agreement by either Purchaser or Seller pursuant to Sections 7.1(iv) or (v), the respective Parties may seek any and all remedies available to them under applicable law. In the event any Party shall be required to employ an attorney or attorneys to institute a legal proceeding against the other Party or Parties for the purpose of enforcing any of the provisions of this Agreement or protecting its interest in any matter arising under this Agreement, the non-prevailing party in any such action pursued in courts of competent jurisdiction (the finality of which is not legally contestable) shall pay to the “prevailing party” all reasonable costs, damages and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, expended or incurred in connection with such proceeding. The standard to be applied in determining whether a Party is a prevailing party for purposes of this Section 7.3.2 shall be the same standard as applied by the courts in determining who is a prevailing party for purposes of Rule 54(d) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.

8.10 Failure or Indulgence Not Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of any Party in the exercise of any right under this Agreement shall impair such right or be construed to be a waiver of, or acquiescence in, any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right.
